Since you lack computer graphics knowledge, even if we did show you the proof that the video is fake you wouldn't be able to see it. The video
itself is proof, however, it is hidden to you because of your lack of knowledge of certain aspects of reality.
Seriously, do you know what parallax is? If you did, then this video would look super fake to you. Do this.... stick your hand out in front of you,
close one eye, and move your head around to simulate the shake of a video camera. You will see that your hand moves around faster than everything
behind your hand. This is because everything behind your hand is further than your hand.
In the OP's video of the UFO, the camera is moving so much that they felt the need to make a stabilized version. If the UFO is high in the sky and
far away from the telephone pole, every time the camera moved (the shake) the telephone pole (like your hand) should move faster than the UFO, but
that doesn't happen. The UFO and the telephone pole are perfectly moving together, locked...
This is a sign of motion tracking, also known as "
match moving". This software that does this
requires you to pick an object or spot on the original video to "anchor" or "lock-on" to so that the object will appear to be in one place while
the camera moves around. The person who made the video "locked-on" to the telephone pole.
However, since you know nothing about parallax, or motion tracking, you just don't see the evidence that is right in front of your face. Hence the
reason why I told everyone to learn the ins and outs of computer graphics (and other reality based knowledge) so you understand what processes are
needed to be done in order to achieve a realistic CG image.
It is like the difference between a layman and a mechanic. The mechanic has built many vehicle engines, and the layman has built none. The mechanic
can just examine the engine and find any problems, but the problem is hidden to the layman. This is because the mechanic knows the ins and outs of
engines, how they are made, how they should run, and how they should look. The layman doesn't know half that.
If some guy made a fake engine, the mechanic would be able to spot the fake, and the layman wouldn't know until someone proved it to him. The
mechanic can see obvious missing required pieces, but the layman is complete oblivious and thinks he is looking at a real engine.
...become the mechanic of all things and you wont be deceived.
