I have no real opinion about UFOs and Aliens - though I tend to be rather skeptical not on the existence of possible ET intelligence but about exposed revelations on the subject in general - but think this video is worth considering.

"Area 51: The Alien Interview" is a documentary film released on video in 1997 which centers around color video footage claimed to have been obtained by a man who identifies himself only as "Victor," who purports it to be of an extraterrestrial being interrogated at a government facility.Victor maintains the footage was copied from a top-secret video originally recorded at Area 51. For fear of having his identity pinpointed, he never specifies whether he was an employee at the facility, but vaguely states that he "had reason to be present at Area 51 [...]" Though the documentary states the copy was smuggled out of Area 51, Victor once again strays from details by never specifically saying where the copying took place. He merely insists that an instance of "data leaking" occurred during a massive transfer of video documentation from video analog to digital disc storage in a "(lower) security system." Victor took advantage of the circumstances to copy the footage.

On July 26, 1996, after several unsuccessful attempts to get network television companies to view and subsequently air his video, Victor contacted Rocket Pictures, an independent home video distribution company based in Los Angeles. Company president Tom Coleman, though reluctant at first, agreed to produce a documentary based on the video after his telephone conversation with Victor. Coleman sought the opinion of outside experts before going forth with making the documentary, and invited ufologist Sean David Morton to view the video.

On March 13, 1997, Morton, being interviewed by Art Bell on the Coast to Coast AM radio show, made mention of the video and described it in great detail, thus marking it the first time the general public became aware of the video's existence. Victor himself would be interviewed by Bell just two months later. Calling from a phone and using a device to alter his voice, Victor also went into detail over the contents of the video.

Of course nothing to take at the face value, in fact I really don't and I would say why in another post :)

To me it was very convincing. Even if it isn't true, I know they exist; it is just that I have not seen any in this lifetime. Because I have not seen Alaska does not mean that it does not exist. But I am absolutely SURE all of our lives have been affected by them, the aliens. They have been a continuous influence in the lives of Earthlings since time immemorial. I think the Earth has been like a "Way Station," or "Halfway House," a place to refuel and recharge. In the process we and they have profited. They are so much more technologically and spiritually advanced than we are, (like the video said), that in comparison, it is like petting a dog and comforting it before it is being put to sleep. They possibly view us as we view hamsters, and really don't necessarily have OUR best interests in mind when dealing with us. So, if we have one of them as a captive, it must be especially tortuous and stressful for it to bear having to take orders and deal with captivity by us obtuse monkeys. Can you imagine yourself being held captive by circus monkeys for years on end, with no real purpose? In the re-enactment, the questions posed to the "alien" were absurd and from a lower base mentality with no regard to the spiritual aspects of man and being. A downwright primitive mentality....a Duuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh

That there are some ETs in the Universe or even on Earth, well why not, it's even a rational idea if we admit that by probability law there's no reason we should be unique in the billions of Galaxies.

My skepticism is about the context of all these revelations about ETs but I didn't expose this context yet, it will be for another article :)

This video has been debunked. The movement of the creature's head is so mechanical. In addition, the censored guy is a charlatan. See you.
