Sightings, tabloid type stuff, what do you like?

This is kind of a tangent to the Cryptozoology thread, only its for the kind of stuff they used to have on Sightings; the kind of stuff that is probably crap, but you just WANT it to be real...

I'll get things started: On an episode Sightings, I saw a thing about some creatures that are supposedly everywhere and are cylanders or tubes(?), and they fly really fast, and can supposedly be huge, like the size of airliners, or really small. there was some "Footage" of one in a video taken by some basejumpers (i think) who were getting ready to jum into one of those giant holes in the ground in south america.



Another one, this one just irritated me, was "Breatharians", people who supposedly subsist on air and nothing else. And we are supposed to believe they didnt have a ham sandwich after the crew left...

I am all for science, it is practically a religion for me, but this is one thing they have completely detroyed for me... If there is a Loch Ness monster, it is gating in occaisionally from another dimension, perhaps Xen from Half-Life...

i pay no attention to any of this stuff ...

from the front page to the back and everything between .. ufo abductions, bigfoot, and brad pitt's love child, i couldnt give a shit about any of this crap.

if i want to see neat creatures, i'll watch animal planet ...
sure - some of that stuff is manipulated to be 'show worthy' but at least it exists !

I've always had a soft spot for Loch Ness info and sightings, even well done fake like Incident at Loch Ness (Werner Herzog) makes me feel like a giddy kid again.

Yeah, I consider most of it crap, but there is that little part in the back of my mind that says "What if?".


That little voice is also why i am agnostic rather than an athiest.
