Alien Encounter Filmed In Mexico

Utterly crap.

And who says alien lifeform will have comparible technology? In 500 years, humans probably won't move anymore at all, they'll just be plugged in a computer all day and let robots do the work. Anyway, what I mean: why do you think aliens would come to our world physicly?

I believe in some powers, just not 'alien' as from another planet.

Well I'm not sure, why would we send people to the moon? Or Mars? Or anywhere outside of earth?

I don't believe in crappy reported alien sightings like this, but it just seems extremely unlikely to me that, out of the bazillion planets in the universe, Earth is the only one with life on it...

We're "intelligent", they could be "intelligent"... We evolved this way, they could have evolved this way (or at least in a similar way)...
If you could compare humans and this theoretical intelligent alien race, they could be less advanced, they could be more advanced...

For all we know, on some crazy extremely far away planet (impossible to reach, unless some mystical magical form of travel is invented), there could be some race exploring their planet's moons or other nearby planets, wondering if there is life out there, speculating that "Any life we find will probably be no more than puny, inferior beings!"...

As for why any potential alien race that has the ability to somehow get to us would actually come down here physically... Eh, who knows? But I mean, if we, as humans, located a planet with other living, apparently "intelligent" beings on it, and somehow had a way to get there (that didn't involve immortality and a very long sleep), would we not eventually go down there physically? I mean, after sending unmanned things, trying to communicate with signals, etc etc...

*shrug*

That's basically my theory on everything related to life on other planets... Based around "Ok, so what makes you think we're so special?"...

So they come down here and let them be caught on film? (I know you already said you didn't believe this story though.)

I could believe that alien life visits Earth, I just won't believe they look anything like us.

*shrug*... Who's to say they'd even recognize what it is?

Someone happened to have a video camera, happened to already be filming, happened to notice something was wrong, and happened to look up just in time to record the first plane crashing into the World Trade Center on 9/11...

To name the most notable "right place, right time" video capture I can think of...

Caught on film / be recognized on film.... whatever.

I actually do like Spielberg's Taken.

Err, I meant who's to say the alien would recognize what the video camera was, it's purpose, etc etc... It wouldn't "let itself" be captured on film, but it wouldn't "not let itself" be captured on film either...

If it was captured on film, it would be because someone with a video camera happened to cross paths with it, and was able to get it out and turned on before it like... Ran away or... Bit their head off or something...

And if it was captured on film, it might not even realize it...

Ok ok you got your point I guess. Alien life would posibly not understand our world, running around like idiots. Somehow I have to take a look at your avatar now.

But it has nothing to do with my original point, that chances are practically zero that aliens would look like us. Unless they got the ability to change form or project things.
