Spontaneous Human Invisibility

I read about this a long time ago, where some book I cannot remember mentioned that if you get lost in your thoughts and yourself deeply enough, you become invisible to others. Kind of like a cloak.

Now this article reminded me of this.
I started wondering: If this thing occurs, shouldn’t it have been caught on tape? A quick search on Youtube and similar sites gave nothing, save a few obvious hoaxes.. Not that it means anything if you cannot find it on the Internet.. And then, if it happened, would a camera pick it up or does the invisibility cloak only apply to human observers? That would seem to be the most probable case, since we only see what we want to see, through the filter of our almighty ruler, our brain.
Another mystery of the Soul, the Universe and everything in between.

And here’s a comprehensive guide to achieve invisibility.

(note to self: if you ever feel invisible to others, slap someone hard. That will probably make you very visible very fast..)

The Fourth Kind of Hoax

Saw the movie The Fourth Kind a couple of days ago, and I just had to write something about it.
To get it out of the way, yes I liked it. Very much. It's been a while since I saw something as creepy and disturbing as this.
If you liked The Mothman Prophecies, chances are you are going to like this one as well.
The film is styled in a documentary kind of way, and starts by pronouncing everything in it to be true, but a quick search proved that it was all a viral marketing plan by Universal, ending in criticism and a fine of $20.000...
The marketing campaign was backed by fake news sites among others, which probably played a big part in the negative criticism and legal action that ensued.
Here's a breakdown of the investigation by Kyle Hopkins, done even before the film was released.
 So why even bother? Well, it is this documetary-style, slow-moving directorial pace that gives the film it's ominous atmosphere, as well as the abduction elements, that are not as far-fetched as the uninitiated might think. The director clearly has done his research or is a full-fledged UFO freak. Good stuff.


I am afraid I cannot comment on the plot without spoiling it for some, so see it for yourselves. All I can say is that the UFO community out there (the internet) is of a very poor quality, home of the uninformed, confused, messed up or plain screaming crazy... Just take a look at any UFO forum...
