Deepfakes: Can We Believe What We See On Video? By Dorraine Fisher
We can often get triggered by something a certain politician or prominent figure in the world has said, but are we sure they really said it? Are we really sure that everything we’re seeing these days is real? Deepfakes are becoming more popular and more convincing. So convincing that we can’t really trust what we see anymore. We all need to be very careful of this technology because we’ve been programmed to believe that “seeing is believing.” But today we have to be really careful of believing everything we see and hear. Because technology has become very advanced. More advanced than most of us realize.
This image and also a short GIF image of it is supposed to be proof of giants, and it has been floating around on the internet for a few years now. It shows a large man walking and some point to this as not only proof of giants but of the Nephilim. The Nephilim were the offspring of the "sons of God" and the "daughters of men" before the flood according to Genesis 6:4.
I have seen this picture show up on numerous bigfoot groups and various "crypto" type news groups on Facebook for a couple years now.
But the truth of the matter is that, while giants may in fact be real, this particular image is from a movie.
The Ghost Of Longleat House, The Green Lady Amazing Footage Or Pure Hoax?
By Dorraine Fisher
Longleat House is a stately English manor house from the 16th century, set on 1000 acres of parkland near the village of Horningsham, Somerset, England. It was the first stately home opened to the public, and it’s a local vacation destination with its maze gardens, thousands of acres of woodlands, beautifully landscaped park lands, and the very first known safari park ever established outside of Africa.
It also has a long, rich, dark story with a long history of paranormal activity. A casual visitor to the park in 2014 claims to have some video footage of one of the more ghostly occupants of the house, Lady Louisa Carteret, best known now as The Green Lady.
The above picture was reported taken in New York back in January of this year. The figure seems rather odd shaped and some say it is a werewolf, while others say it is some kind of new undiscovered wolf. If you notice it seems the back legs and feet have a more human appearance, than say, a dog or wolf.
I thought I would attempt to zoom in on the canine looking figure to see if we can gather any more details. But it seems the picture is just too low in quality to achieve much in the way of details. Some speculated that the figure could be a hoax and photoshopped. That may be the case but it is worth a look.
What do you think?
Next up is a crazy video of a reportedly unknown creature filmed in Portugal. Some say it is some type of alien, while others say it is some type of Bigfoot and some even said it was the legendary Chupacabra.
Here is the video.
Huh? What in the world is that thing?
Well, it is very slow moving and has arms that almost drag the ground. But many questions arise about this video. Notice how the color is really drab? Could there be a reason for this? Maybe.
This "unknown creature" reminds me of a video from several years ago. The one where an odd creature is seen in the background of a news report. That video was from Argentina.
Here is a still frame from that old video.
If anyone would like to view this video you can do so at this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FkEuh7vMX4
The two creature do appears similar. The thing is that the Argentina creature was an admitted CGI animation and a hoax. The figure in the Portugal video looks very CGI to me. So, I would not be surprised if at some point the hoax is admitted or exposed.
Whelp, there you have a couple interesting things from the world wide web. I would be interested in hearing what others have to say about these. Are they at all believable to you? Do you think they are just hoaxes to get attention?
What do you think?
Thanks

Among
the most daunting tasks of the paranormal investigator is sifting
through piles of video footage that comes to their attention. They
don’t want to waste their time, but they don’t want to miss
anything important either. So it’s hard to ignore anything
significant. And sometimes we run into something unusual that, real
or not, we choose to share and acquire some other opinions about it.
The
following video was brought to my attention by a friend. It’s
origins are unknown, but several signs point to it being a CGI video.
Nonetheless, it’s gripping enough to warrant a second or third
look. An unknown “creature” seems to discover it’s being
watched and attempts to duck behind a tree. And its movements are
intriguing. Let us know what you think.
What is
it? Or do you believe it’s computer generated?
Special
thanks to Jaime Febus and the Facebook group Beyond The XFiles for
bringing this video to my attention.
Update - Thanks to Ross Withers, we now know the origin of this clip. And as we suspected it is not real but from the 2012 movie Thale.

Strange Humanoid Creature Video
Once in a while we find a video of
something that's just plain weird. And although we don't know
if it's real or not, it causes us to take a second look. Check
out this video from the UK of what appears, at first glance and
at full speed, a skinny dog running across the road. But if we
slow it down and zoom in a bit, it appears to be a strange
humanoid creature running across on all fours...and at a pretty
fast rate of speed. What do you think this is? Something real or some type of effects?
