Excuse me but there is a ghost on my boat.

Stuff flying in the sky?
I had something in my field of view for 30 seconds that was impossible to be a helicopter,fighter jet,nor anything of our technology
 
I was surprised that the story was abruptly cut off - it was spookily like some sort of conspiracy that prevents any 'weird' events from being broadcast.
Oh they cut out the 'weird' all right...

Did you read the transcript in the video:

"Multiple teleportations, we don't have that in our technology"

A cultural artifact from here:

What I saw: some flashing lights

What it is: aliens teleporting...



This is a common twist the the whole UFO culture cited as 'evidence' that something MUST BE what they believe it to be.

Evoked by our west just above:

I remember hearing that the spread of UFO claims is similarly regional and can be seen as a function of how beliefs and folklore spread and are retained in a society.

The interesting bit isn't what we experience, it's how we explain it.

‘The scientific evidence suggests that all aspects of the near-death experience have a biological basis.’

Hmm, I attended church that had an old German couple as members. The wife had at one time worked in a Hospice. According to her, it was SOP to call the family and notify them of a patient's pending death anytime a patient mentioned seeing a "door" or a "light", because patients normally succumbed within 24 hours after seeing such things.

She also related the following event that affected her greatly.

A young child, near death, was lying on the bed facing the wall away from them, with her and the family in the room. After listening to the child mutter and fuss for some time, the mother finally ask the child what was wrong. He responded - "they won't leave me alone." Who, the mother ask. Rolling over to face them, the child replied, "Those kids over there". What kids, the mother ask again. The child replied, "Don't you see them? Those kids over there (gesturing toward the wall). They keep asking me to come over and play with them."

At this point, everyone in the room really began crying as they realized what this meant, but the mother told the child, "Well you go ahead and go play. It's ok."

So the child rolled over, loudly and distinctly proclaimed, "I'm coming!", and promptly died.

...

Me personally, I don't see how any biological process could account for something like that.

Late night-small light:
Absolutely still above a mountain,plainly visible. Takes off,and within 5-6 seconds goes to a valley between two mountains and stops instantly- about 6 km away.From our 12:00 to our 3:00. We measured it out on maps later.

Stays there for a minute,then shoots back over top of us more or less horizontally at very high speeds and then veers almost vertically and disappears into the night sky.

My cousin,myself,and a friend.

Explain,oh wise one.
 
A belief is a argument already won by the believer, I won't pretend to interfere.
 
Two of us are big guys- hiked around in the wilderness and had bear/cougar encounters,been charged by moose and mother grizzlies,etc. When you've had an 900 pound grizzly chase you up a tree or been run into bushes by a horny and pissed off 1500 pound bull moose-not much else in this world can faze you.
None of us ever went back in that house.

i would be extremely worried if i was chased into the bushes by a 1500 lb horny moose.

There are innumerable crackpots who have hitched themselves to UFO and "paranormal" subject matter, be mindful though, that ultimately that has no bearing on whether there is any substance to it. The loonie's claims may be fictitious, doesn't mean all such claims are.
 
My mother had a reputation for being the witch in the family (using the word to mean someone in tune with things others weren't). For example, she'd get up of a morning and start cleaning house, baking and cooking and getting ready for company, and that afternoon relatives who hadn't called ahead would show up. And sometimes when I called, she'd pick up the phone and say "hello, Troy."

I visited her in the nursing home with my dad at the end of her life, when she was dying from a brain tumor. She kept taking to a couple of children in the corner of the room, and including them in our conversation.

I looked at my dad and raised an eyebrow, and he uncomfortably explained, "well, you have to remember your mother's a little confused right now and things are sort of blurring together for her. Those kids either haven't been here yet or they were here back when someone else had the room, and she can't tell the difference anymore...."
 
My father is a non believer but during the last few years before passing away, he could hear noises and get agitated and he would be talking to "someone" whom we don't see.

My nephew's 4 year old daughter have a "playmate" in our house. She plays and converse with "it". When we asked her whom she was speaking to, she gave a name, pointing to a location near her.

Both are in a stage where they are not able to separate reality and the unreal. But what is strange is that the girls father (a college degreed person) can also feel (not see) the manifestation.

By the way, a witch, or a disciple of Wicca, practices and is tune with nature's principles. Wicca is a religion but have been given a bad name.

Did you read the transcript in the video::

hmmm - you missed the point a bit.

That video was just an example of dozens of other videos, and they stand irrespective of the photographers weird interpretation.

A mainstream reporter avoided learning any details at all - purposely 'squashing' the verifiable report, of a sane, accredited witness.

This unwillingness of people to engage in the 'strange' is not very scientific.

The reporting of 'lights' and visitations to dying people is so widespread, that it cannot be some kind of mass hallucination.

One two occasions, I have heard radio interviews with palliative care unit managers describing the phenomena as a worldwide 'norm', not a rare occurrence - like the British hospital observations.

To just dismiss the observations with your own made up explanations, is no more logical than the 'nut jobs' that try to exploit the gullible.
 
Don't know if I have an attraction for the paranormal and ghostly things, but things have a habit to disappear and re-appear regularly around me or near me. :confused:
In fact, my helper actually questioned me why funny things happens around me - for instance, we will work in my garage on the table, and put a tool/part down. Next moment the tool will be gone and we will take everything off the table looking for it and not find it. We will carry on just to find that the missing tool or whatever magically re-appeared in plain sight where it was put originally. Once we nearly unpack/emptying the whole of my three car garage to the outside looking for a critical part that pulled a Houdini on me, again only to be found in clear sight were it was later when everything was put back inside.:mad:

Recently serviced some outboard carburetors a client brought to me whilst he was watching and waiting for it, and a part did the old disappearing trick much to my dismay and the client's. He helped looking for it, asking how it could vanish whilst all the other bits and pieces lies undisturbed where it were safely put on the table - well, I just smiled at him and said it will come back, be patient. About 15 minutes later, the part manifested itself again exactly where it should have been originally. My client was flabbergasted.:)

As said, these things happens regularly driving me up the wall especially when Im in a hurry to get things done and a part takes the vanishing act. Had things disappeared even for a few days before it mysteriously re-appear.:eek:

I can think of one way to stop this, install CCTV recording in your workshop, the spooks won't play then. :p

Thanks for this - I have printed it out for my wife, she just thinks I am doddery, now I have evidence of paranormal persecution :p

What's the legal term for this?

Cannot refute nor debate against the statement, so try to diminish it by pretending that debate is useless.

And yes Brendan-moose are a hazard. Youtube- moose chase and you'll see. They can kick half your head off...
