This is a short web page entitled "UFO-9997" (this moniker is randomly
generated, given the proliferation in UFO-related files, especially video
files). It is based on a very short YouTube video clip!
Here is one of most easily detectable fake UFO ... it is clearly a reasonably
good piece of work, but then anyone can still easily see that it is simply a
CGI — or computer-generated image — video ...
like the way they do it in Hollywood, although those who are CGI-skilled would
probably said the present effort is still amateurish (especially compared to
that video on the "UFO Haiti").
So ... it's a clear fake, although, of course, the intention probably isn't to
hoax anyone (I think)! But in many other YouTube and similar web-hosting sites,
some of the video clips are compilations of stuff, some of which are clearly
fakes ... and have even been identified and/or acknowledged by the author(s) as
fakes! Sounds the video equivalent of bundling sub-prime mortgages with the
good ones ... ending up with so-called SIVs (structured investment vehicles) or
CDOs (collaterised debt obligations) ... whatever flowery name it may be
called, the bundled items is still collectively no good!

So ... I think it is important to emphasize that faked UFO videos and
photographs abound on the Internet ... and that someone watching a video like
the one featured on this "UFO-9997" webpage (or similar CGI videos elsewhere in
the Net) may become motivated to go and do another one even better! Like the
"Tribbles" in the "Star Trek", the stuff just grows and grows ... and then
repoduces and spread virally across the Net. Wowee!
Cheers!

P.S. Some people ask me who is that cute PYT at the top of this web page ... is
she my girlfriend, they ask slyly? "I wish!", I replied, if not slyly, at least
dreamingly.
P.P.S. Have a look at the following YouTube video clip ...
