I believe flying discs exist etc. I believe some videos are true. This one though is 101% fake. And a bad one.

Surprisingly, long before the Kenneth Arnold sighting of 1947 and the adoption of the term "flying saucer" by the press, spacecraft of human or alien origin were often illustrated as classic flying saucers in the popular press, dating back to at least 1911.[20]

That's likely one of the sketchiest UFO vids I've ever seen.
is it me or does the camera wobble not match the wobble movement of the UFO?
Kenneth Arnold supposedly claims to have coined the phrase flying saucer.
Yet, his account is that they did not actually look like saucers.
The term "flying saucer" was made popular by a journalist covering Kenneth Arnolds's sighting of nine flying disks in June of 1947. The journalist misquoted Arnold, who did not describe the objects as saucer shaped, but describes their strange movement as similar to a saucer thrown on water and bouncing several times: they "flew like a saucer would if you skipped it across the water."

OK twist my arm, I will tell you where the other sighting was of this same disk.
Take a look top right on this page

If your film was made in 1981, that would explain the cheesy optical effects. You're right, it's not CGI, it's a simple double exposure. That's why it jutters.

Same here.

It's not you, looks weird (and fake)
Such a promising thread title too...but I can't buy into this one.

He said that they flew almost like if you skipped a saucer on a lake. That's allegedly where the term came from, not from the shape of the craft.

On July 8, 1947, the Roswell Army Air Field (RAAF) public information officer Walter Haut in Roswell, New Mexico, issued a press release[3] stating that personnel from the field's 509th Bomb Group had recovered a crashed "flying disk" from a ranch near Roswell

For thirty years I've held that
image in my mind. What i saw
was a circular object that
looked like two pie plates put
on top of each other with a golf
ball on top. It was a classic
flying saucer, and it shot a
beam of something at our
warhead.

But another item no one has mentioned is :the flying saucer make or type is from the 1950's. I mean the video itself is a cliché. You mite as well have Charlie Chaplin holding hands with Tin-Robotic-Alien, skipping along.
I mean to really think that this hunk of junk came from a distant galaxy 100 light years away,let alone from our orbit. Lol. You think that pour excuse of a UFO can withstand the temperatures of our atmosphere?
C'mon man!!! You know its a fake.
That's piece of bullcrap wouldn't last 2 minutes with an F-22 fighter jet. And you're telling me that came from space. ,,,,,,,oh and don't tell me its a prototype from Lockheed or NORAD. Give me a brake. You have nothing, just your delusional guesses. You're not even an expert in video. Maybe you're an expert on DVD's,,,no ,,no ,,, you're an expert on VHS tapes.
Its a fake, and all of us are idiots for wasting a single character on this thread.
If it was fake, it would show clearly as it moved through the trees. The limitation of the camera and or the codec used to compress the video, MPEG originally, lacks the ability to define the contrast since the contrast is in too narrow a band. Remember that raw video footage this size might be 400 plus megabytes, and compressed it was compressed to 2 megabytes after it was turned into a mpeg. So there is a loss of data. A substantial loss of data but it was meant to be a strategic leak, providing just enough proof of its authenticity, then, when the people approached the governments for funding in 2000 or 2001 when this was leaked, they merely had to show them a better copy and say see, this has been leaked, and we could not stop it, and it will forever be out there and we cannot remove it.

A fighter jet? How about 8,000 miles per hour, flying aorund a missile in the air, shooting a beam of light, disarming a missile? That was recorded on video by the military.
And of course people have claimed speeds of 25,000 mph.
There is no reason to think it can't do the speed of light once it gets going. SInce it can apparently nullify inertia.
It has to in order to do the things people claim, such as make 90 degree high speed turns. Otherwise everything inside would turn to jelly.
There is a document at the MJ12 papers site that claims the Manhattan project came from the investigation of a crashed disk in 1941.
Here it is, its an interesting read, until they start talking about remote viewing and making references to other flights of fancy. Why do they do that if not to keep from being hit on thhe head?

Then stop talking to trolls and answer my point!
What is your explanation for not seeing the UFO past the trunk, in the holes between branches? There is one big enough that remains white all the way...
