Ghost bug!

Someone did an AWESOME job of putting together a video demonstrating that the “ghost” visible on this gas station camera was actually…an insect. He included footage of other famous ghost insects from the past as well. Enjoy! (and read the full story at Skepchick).

    About a year ago, I noticed what appeared to be a “smudge” on the feed from the CBC webcam overlooking the Saint John harbour. I figured it was a smudge on the lens, or on the window. But then the smudge moved!

    Of course, I immediately realized that it was probably a fly on the outside of the window, but it’s more fun to imagine a UFO hovering over the cruse ship.

    I was just raving about how good this was. For every dumbass lizard-people video, let a thousand skeptics bloom!
