It is failry good for homemade special effects but: bogus bogus bogus.

The mental midgets in the MUFON and End of Time2012 groups are abuzz
with giddy little digital back slaps because they finally have video
"proof" about aliens (rolling eyes) that no one can refute. Well gosh
 refute this.....

The trajectory into and out of the clouds along with the time of
reappearance are mis-matched: The apparent speed of the fireball
would speed up --not slow down. The fireball would have had to stop
and pause behind the clouds in this clip.

Did the fireballs "turn off" while behind the clouds? Why do we not
see the illuminatiion of/through the clouds.

Why did the fireballs take a "J" turn away from the photographers
point of view? ETc ETc.
