According to locals, this particular UFO occurrence was first spotted in 2006, but this was the first time it was ever caught on tape.

The timestamp at 00:26 makes that sentence very confusing.

Oh great..God freaks from beyond the stars.
Break out the good china kids, the Cylons just landed.

They need to start airdropping stedicams to rural areas. How hard is it to just hold a camera still.

That being said... the way that thing moves, whatever it is, is way creepy. There does seem to be a surplus of sightings recently.

why is the cameraperson always suffering from caffeine withdrawl or something

it's amazing what you can do with an AVID editor these days. It looks nice though. Whomever out it together has a long and active career i Hollywood ahead of them.

ROFL at the flying nunn! your so right. it is her.

Looks like someone is a good editor or built a working jetpack.

The FLying Nunn seemed to do a lot of flips and such. That flying thing just seemed to slowly fly across. Maybe it's the flying Pope

Hmm... the figure floating seems to have a little more clarity to it than the surrounding cliffs.

Hey, I'm going to go release a mylar balloon and film it. Maybe i can get on TV with a "paranormal" happening.

That is pretty creepy.

This is not a new phenomena, and it has been filmed before. These things (or digital creations) are called Flying Humanoids. Google it.

@MickyK:

The tall pointy hat lends credence to that statement. Itsa tha Flyin Pope!

Elphaba, why couldn't you have stayed calm ONCE! Instead of flying off the handle....

This is just the Mexican government testing their superior technology. Nothing to see here.

Carlos Castaneda may have been telling the truth after all. Don Juan said a brujo could fly.

@Gann: It could just be a guy who has had to many burritos.

@aak7268: WWWIZZARD!

There was a story on NPR not too long ago (fall sametime) about a guy in Mexico who builds jetpacks. He has models for men and women and he's been known to use his daughters as test pilots.

[www.npr.org]

Reminds me of those creepy gnome videos from South America.

I don't see why this couldn't just be a woman riding down a wire. She goes in one direction, and she moves perfectly straight. There could easily be a wire between two mountains.

The Spanish language commentary puts forth the theory that its a witch flying around on a broom.
Thats about on par in believability with the whole Mexican Govt Technology thing.

Makes me wish the X-files was still on...maybe they'll do something with this in Fringe.

@Gyrus:

AVID sucks.

also, lets put pretentiousness behind us and embrace our alien brothers, eh?

A UFO club was the lucky group that managed to catch this moment along with a police officer that claimed, "a floating person had dropped out of the sky and landed on his bonnet," only furthering my nun suspicions.

In many countries, a "bonnet" is what they call the hood of the car. The boot is the trunk, the windscreen is the windshield, and a fag is a cigarette. That being said, the person landed on the hood of his car and he couldn't catch him? What kind of cop is he? Most cops would love perps to drop out of the sky and onto the hood of their cars.

solved: balloon.

So, what is the volume of a typical blow-up sex doll? Enough that it'll fly if you inflate it with helium? If so, then I'd say this mystery's solved.

Next mission for the pranksters: Dress her up like the Virgin Mary. That'll pull some outstanding crowds in a place like Mexico.

Don Juan Mateo.
Or else the Flying Venus of Willendorf. Need...better....resolution....

Looks like someone zip lining between hill tops/mountain ridges.

@Mecharine: New tourism idea: check the view from the zip line while grainy video cameras on the ground create your personalized 'ufo' short...

@liash: Anal probing extra?

As usual with all UFO hoaxes, it's blurry, low-res, and filmed by the crew that did The Bourne Ultimatum.

Looks like some kind of monk having a meditative levitation-stroll through the mountains to me.

That being said, am I the only one who thought the "UFO" footage was funny and the Flying Nun footage was scary?

I wonder why folks who have gun permits and rifles just not shoot at these things? If it's real she'll keep on truckin' along if she isn't and is really a balloon or what not we'll have evidence!

Don't these people know a witch when they see one? This is how it starts, first the witches, then the fairies, eleves, trolls... Before you know it you'll be living in 24-7 scifi con!

Seriously, the shaky-cam thing doesn't really lend a film credibility anymore.

My initial reaction was "viral marketing thingy", but there's so little going on in this video I'm leaning towards "beginning experiments in post-production".

@Jeff-Minor: Hey! Don't forget the Gnomes.

Someone call Tony Stark

I didn't know Sally Field was that hard up for work.

@Jeff-Minor: Fairies and elves are not sci-fi...

this is so old...
i actually saw it on the news, back on 2006. the cop who said he saw a witch was probably drunk, very.

My son has a Helium filled radio control blimp. Now if he put a dress over it, and flew it, we could have a flying human in our yard too! LOL!

@MickyK: ¡Dios Mio! ¡El Papa volatil!

@btgoss: I get it!
