FACT or FAKED........POINTLESS

   The new SyFy show Fact or Faked is about as pointless as the Discovery Channels MythBusters. Plagued by Josh Gates rejects these clowns try and replicate viral video and paranormal happening to prove whether or not they have been faked, or are possibly real.

    I watched the episode tonight where they attempt to duplicate a police chase where a car made some professional stunt driver moves doing U-turns and losing the police car and then after another quick turn, seemed to go through a fence without harming it, and the police car having to stop the chase because the car reappeared on the other side.

    They start out with actual testing of a drivers ability to do a U-turn, then move the experiment to a sport stadium with ramps and other things that don't even pertain to the actual video. Just like MythBusters, the procedure taken to prove the cases are to varied to have any reliable outcome. They use the theory of, "This is how to duplicate the situation and if it works....it must be truth. If it don't work......it must be truth."

    Sadly this is the method used by MythBusters as well. When they get enough complaints.....they make a new show. After the opening sequence, the show started to hold interest. As when they showed the fake video coming out of Florida that Lon over at Phantoms and Monsters wall papered his site with. I was hoping that it would be made public. Watch them if you must, but I can tell you it's a complete waste of time. Nothing definite ever comes to view beside motionless figures on strings or broom sticks pulled or pushed into view of a doorway without any movement what so ever. Sounds created by the people in the room. Shadows made by the same. Just as the Perth Orb videos.......these are man made. It's a shame that idiots keep posting these all over the web. It's also a shame that people believe in them.

    I guess if people think a mangy varmint or dog in Texas is a Chupacabra.....they will believe in anything.
