Just as we suspected, yesterday’s jumping alien footage was another filmmaker playing games with the cryptid community. This footage was found on Youtube by our very own team member, Greg Champy, where the filmmaker illustrates his work on the film.

So, it wasn’t a deliberate hoax, but more like a reminder to always be critical about any footage that looks this “interesting.”

Mysterious Jumping Alien...Or Hoax?
By Dorraine Fisher This video has been circulating on Youtube for a long time. I first saw this when the late J.C. Johnson, the famous cryptid researcher, posted it on his Facebook page when I first met him back in 2012. He obviously thought it was interesting, and so do I, even though it might just be an interesting fake.

We know absolutely nothing about its origin. The Youtuber that posted it offers no details whatsoever. It’s filmed at twilight so the light is bad, and the whole thing is a little blurry, which is always suspicious. The video depicts a strange light moving across the sky, when a strange figure appears on the road in front of the guy who’s filming. When he tries to get a little closer to the figure, it jumps and exits the area in a single bound.
