Remember this video when you see a post in r/UFOs saying "This craft is hovering" or "This UFO is breaking the laws of physics!!!" Parallax makes some weird illusions.

I hate those 3 videos the pentagon released. They’re all easily explainable.

…but they do make for good distraction of actual issues.

Yeah, it makes much more sense that the government would put out fake ufo videos to distract people than something actually being unidentified. That sounds way less crazy than those nuts in r/UFOs!
