Russian Dead Alien like a Hollywood Alien! Fake or Real?

Video of what appears to be an alien body recently found in Russia following reports of UFOs last month has set off a furor among UFO communities and in the blogosphere.

The Daily Mail reported that "In the frozen wastes of Siberia two walkers claim to have found the body of an alien. On its side with its mouth slightly agape, the slender, badly-damage body lies half-buried in snow close to Irkutsk, Russia. Video of the alien's corpse has become a massive worldwide hit with hundreds of thousands of followers after being posted on the internet. The corpse of the badly-damaged creature which resembles ET is two feet high. Part of the right leg is missing and there are deep holes for eyes and a mouth in a skull-like head."

One of the men who allegedly found the alien was quoted as saying, "We couldn't believe it when we saw it. And what was spooky is that there was no sign of the spaceship. Perhaps that was taken away and the body overlooked."

Having previously investigated (and solved) many videos of unexplained phenomena including UFOs and aliens, I was asked by ABC News to provide an expert analysis of the new video. I highlighted several reasons why the video was suspicious, including the fact that the two men can be heard laughing at one point, and listed telltale signs that the video was staged. I also explained why the alien was unconvincing and described how it could have been fabricated, concluding that "there's probably a butcher shop somewhere missing some pieces."

There's also a plausible reason why no spacecraft is seen: it would have required much more effort to fake. It's one thing to create a two-foot alien body figure, but fashioning a plausible spaceship that carried the poor little alien from his extraterrestrial home to his snowy Siberian tomb would have been far more difficult.

My early analysis of a hoax proved correct. The Siberian alien was created by two Russian teens, Timur Hilall and Kirill Vlasov, who confessed to the hoax after police in Irkutsk, Siberia, investigated. The police also found the “alien” figure hidden in one of the teen’s bedrooms; it was made of several materials, including butcher shop scraps.

This is only the latest of several UFO and alien-related misidentifications and hoaxes over the past six months. In November of last year, a UFO or supposed "mystery missile" was sighted off the coast of Los Angeles. Rumors and myths circulated for weeks about the strange contrail in the sky; it was later determined to have been an ordinary airplane contrail, from United Parcel Service Flight 902.

In January of this year a series of videos showing what appeared to be a UFO hovering over Jerusalem’s Dome of the Rock caused a sensation among UFO buffs. Those videos were determined by both skeptics and analysts from the Mutual UFO Network to have been faked.

Then, earlier this month a 1950 FBI memo was claimed to be proof that aliens and saucers were recovered from a 1947 crash in Roswell, New Mexico. Once again, skeptical analysis showed that the "smoking gun" evidence was related to a hoax; the FBI memo was real, but it did not refer to Roswell but instead to a UFO hoax in Aztec, New Mexico.

Of course for many people no amount of evidence—whether presented by skeptics or believers—will change their minds about UFOs. For some, it's easier to believe that aliens are among us than it is to believe that they could be fooled.

Alien Dead Body recently found in Siberia, Russia

A video has surfaced in Siberia claiming to have found the body of a ‘dead alien’. The video or body has not been verified as authentic, but it is generating massive interest online around the world.

The remains are said to be in Irkutsk, Siberia. The discovery is drawing massive attention as you may have suspected. There are over one million hits on the original video’s YouTube posting. However, there are many skeptics that don’t believe it is authentic.

Allegedly, the video was filed by the small town of Irkutsk in Siberia. The video camera operator is walking in a very snowy area toward the location of the alien body. Once he gets up close to the tiny creature, the camera zooms in to give a very good look of the being.

The supposed is very tiny with hollow eyes, a larger head, reddish body color, and one of the lets have been severed. It looks just like the alien creatures you find in typical Hollywood movies and scripts, which is why there are many that have strong doubts of the authenticity of this find. Many believe it is just an elaborate hoax.



The language spoken by one of the men on the find is in Russian, but said to be a commentary on how a dog was the one that found the ‘dead alien’ body. The actual words spoken in the video haven’t been verified by The Random Forest at the moment of this writing. This is speculation at this point.

Naturally, the video and supposed find of alien life form on earth has sparked a rash of rumors and conspiracy theories. Many have said this area is a the site of alien crash landings. In fact, there have been many UFO sightings in their area, at least claims of the sightings. Some even believe the military was aware of this crash landing and didn’t perform proper clean up, which is why you cannot find the other part of the alien’s leg, nor the spaceship.

No matter what the truth is about this video, the fact remains there will be must more speculation and discussion about the subject in this area and around the world. Hopefully, someone will be able to verify the authenticity, but until then the speculation continues.
