In early August of this year, a strange new video appeared on Youtube. (Not that it's all that unusual that a strange video appears on Youtube.) But this video www.youtube.com/watch showed what appeared to be two crude-looking disc-shaped aircraft flying over a group of palm trees that were swaying in the breeze. The person capturing it on video can be heard gasping as these ominous-looking UFO's fly over overhead and then fly away at an off-angle formation into the sky. As the craft reach a certain point, you can see other strange lights in the sky closing in with these two craft as if joining one another eventually. Unfortunately (or maybe conveniently)--the footage ends there. A "Part 2" video showed up later on Youtube showing the same (and other off-shaped craft) flying close to ground level. The person who posted the first video claims it was taken in Haiti (and Dominican Republic) on August 6, 2007 and claimed to witness more incredible things beyond what the footage shows. Of course, this caused a huge sensation on Youtube with the usual mix of intelligent and (mostly) moronic or juvenile comments written in the comment section. And then the comments started pouring in:
"That's fake! They just used a new digital program called Vue that recently released a new upgrade (Vue 6)."
