I pride myself on being a lifelong cynic. Suspicious of everything since a child, this strange trait has kept me safe from identity theft, pyramid schemes, and lots of "great" business opportunities. I pretty
much think that everything has a angle of some kind and there is a little dialog that goes on in my head something like this: "what is he selling?" "What does she want?" "If that were true the company itself would be using this system to make money and hiding it!" "Monsters pfft!!" That being said I do have a bit of a controversy in my belief system...
I love cryptozoology. That's right, the guy who only recently believed in Eskimos, is a big fan of such mysterious bullshit as sasquatch, chupacabra and a host of other creatures of fantasy. It may have something to do with my ridiculous imagination, or maybe my love of all things unknown. Either way I have been studying/following the adventurous tales of the quest for unknown species since I was a child. I delight in the science and the silly as far as the whole situation goes and leave the politics alone as I absorb every piece of info I can. Now that you understand the dichotomy of my bizarre thinking a fun heart warming video!
Last weekend as my brother and I were poking around in some digital video captured by our cabin's security video DVR (yes we geeked up the cabin, it was diddy though...) We found a really mysterious thing upon review of the back porch motion file. A playful, angelic creature graced the camera with a cute flyby and then quickly left. Begin the mystery of the lake cabin fairy!
My cynic voice fired! A moth combined wityh IR illumination and interlacing of even and odd fields have created this! My inner child then responded, yes but it did fly in with a perfect circle and has a body with arms and legs! I think it is most likey a massive moth combined with an 8fps capture under heavy IR illumination that created this strange video, but sometimes it is fun to live in a world with just a little mystery left! You decide moth or fairy:
For the ultimate in cynical, this is the original clip for review:




In truth, i believe it to be a fairie...If i didnt know better, i would say you doctored a film clip of your vid and added the sprite your self, BUT i have personally seen with my own two eyes what i believe was a fairie. The only reason i even came to this site and am posting here now, is because the thing i saw was in the exact same shape form and size as the illuminated body upon this video.
I will be lokoing more into the fairie in which i saw locally in my home town ands try to capture it on video myself, but the hopes of that are few and far between. I look forward to seeing more from you. if you get any more footage like this please let me know

Just thank you... I really believe that the reality... is not the one we see every day. I believe the legends of our civilisation are real and that men, thousand and thousand years ago, have saw fairies, gnomes, unicorns,... and, after all this time, it became just legends... That's why I search evidence to prove that all of this exist. And you prove me (as the witness of Aticus that I thank too) that fairies are real...
Thanks a lot for your help ! And if you have some new... don't forget me ! ^^

Very pretty video. I'd love to see anything else you record.

People say that we who believe in fairies are crazy. But, in reality, it is even more absurd to debunk the existance of something you cannot prove does not exist. I have never seen fairies, but I have felt their presense and acquired their help in my magical workings. There's nothing wrong with believing.

I have to believe this is a faery. I am a cynic myself until a face to face encounter last Spring that really changed my perspectives.
Children always seem more open to these types of things, but it took me until 45 years old to discover what many children believe in so easily. My life is happier for it. Yes, faeries are real.

Your not the only one w/ magic in their lives. I had a troll take up residence a couple weeks back in my garden. Life is better seasoned w/ a splash of magic.

Thank you for this video. People are more ready to debunk fairies than angels, but I think both are real. I have felt them all around me my whole life, probably more so as a child. One of my sons favorite authors says " Life is truly beauitful seen through the eyes of youth"- Mark Kimball Moulton. I say it is so. Fairies are out there, even if we don't believe in them.
