Snow white statue blinks

I found this creepy video of a Snow White statue that blinks her eyes. It is in a park in Mexico, apparently they build the park on top of an old cementery.
What do you think? (It is in Spanish, but you can see the thing at 0:35)

It seems to me, that this statue could easily have been manufactured to move at one point.

The eyes could have been made to blink for a publicitiy stunt.

We have street performers here who wear a lot of body paint to make themselves look like statues, since I can't see the video at work here, any possibility of it being a regular person?

LMAO, that is hilarious. The camera person probably sharted. Its a statue, if it blinks at you and frightens you why not just knock it over.

I doubt its a person, It looks like its in a park with all of the other dwarves..
But, I personally don't think you are missing much...

Creepy.I have to agree that it does look like one of those performance artists, albiet a top quality one.

Reminds me of these, old playgrounds have to be the most bizarro areas of urban exploration...

They built it over a graveyard? That is just asking for the spirits to be pissed.

Spare me the details...

It has to be part of the manufacturing design of the figure. I can just imagine someone sitting at a safe distance, holding a remote-control for the actuator, and laughing his/her posterior off.

Can you say 'Publicity Stunt'?

I don't know what is creepier, the statue blinking or the statue of the elves themselves! Yeah, it looks a lot like the statue already had that design to blink. Crack it open and see what's inside!

Highly suspiscious. Why is it that the Snow White statue is staring down anyway? It's only when the camera man stoops to look straight up into the statues face that it blinks. Perhaps the blinking action was triggered by the light from the camera?

Perhaps it's a trick for children (this looks like an old theme park). Children would be about the right height (seeing as she is looking down), and it would amuse them more than scare them. It could be triggered by height. Just a thought.

I definitely agree it must have been this way. For a publicity stunt for tourists, kids, or whatever. I highly doubt this statue was not made to blink. I also agree with HarlieQuinn that the statue of the eleves themeselves are pretty creepy lol.

That’s very interesting even if its fake… to bad there isn't translation to this. There is something about a blinking/ crying statues that sends shivers down my spine.
Whats going with the well?

Oh my goodness. Maybe these people don't get exposed much to any kind of animatrons.

If a blinking Snow White causes that kind of reaction, how would they survive a ride through It's a Small World in Disneyland?

Forgot to mention that I think it's cute how they focus so much attention on the cat towards the end of the video. I mean I understand it's spooky since the area is a prior graveyard, but what doesn't a cat try to climb? Especially when people are giving an object so much attention.

Cats climb huge trees, sleep on balcony ledges that are 10 stories high, try to climb poles, and even walls. Most cat owners can remember times their kitty would jump up on paperwork, newspapers, or books your reading so they can stick their furry face in yours saying, "YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE!"

That's creepy. If you guys look at the later footage, you can see that her eyes are PAINTED on, and there are no vents for shutters to have a blinking feature.

It's a shame she doesn't happen to blink whenever they do an extreme closeup of that face with the bright light on it. Would be interesting if someone could rule out video enhancements as well.

When I was little my sisters had dolls that blinked. The statue looks old enough to be from that time period. The little girls back then would have expected a doll to blink, or maybe thought it lame if it did not. At least the statue dosen't pee all over the park.

Definitely a built in feature of the statue, nothing paranormal about it. Now if it were a marble statue, that would be more interesting...

Then never EVER watch the Doctor Who episode, Blink. It's basically an entire episode dedicated to aliens that look like weeping statues who will kill you when you blink. Uber-creepy episode.

And yeah, that video did kinda freak me out... I'm gonna be sleeping behind the sofa tonight.
