The funniest orb article ever

Did any of you follow the link to their EVP page? Someone had fun playing with a synthisizer. The female voices I listened to sounded mostly like the same person run through different filters.

IF they DID deliberately fake those, it wouldn't be a far cry for them to claim they saw the 'orb' that appeared on the film while they were recording.

I don't know much about photography, but the placement of everything on camera makes me think that they were expecting the 'orb' a little higher than it actually appeared. If they actually saw it, he would be extending the tape player out more horizontally so that the 'orb' would be closer to the mic, right? In fact the way he's holding the tape player almost makes me think that he is using to reflect light it in some manner to make the 'orb' appear on camera.

Hmm....

I listened to several of the "voices", and I'm flabbergasted. Mainly because I hadn't used that word in awhile ("flabbergasted"). This sounds more like a baby doll than a baby. Or else a 40 year old man imitating a baby.

I really like the word "flabbergasted": It conjures up the image of slack jawed incredulity. Unfortunately, one runs the risk on this board of overusing it:D
 
You know, I see orbs like that all the time. Fool me, I'd always thought it was simply a sign that I had failed to put in my contact lenses. Now I know the truth!
 
Did anyone hear the recording of "Hell"? I didn't go to the site, so I don't know it the recording is available there but they play it pretty regularly on the actual radio show (yes, I listen to the show- I can't help myself- kinda like a train wreck kind of thing).

The "Hell" recording was (supposedly) made by lowering the recorder down a very deep hole. BTW, they know it's deep becasue they throw junk into and never hear from the junk again (I am not making that up).

It isn't in the Voices on the wind site, but it is available for download on the Coast to Coast site here.

You have to scroll down to related articles.

It sounds a lot like someone with some audio mixing tools and some spare time...
 
In that photo, what is that large round object that is attached to a sheet of glass? And why is the man holding an electric razor? Here's something weird though, there are several ghostly numbers 2 0 0 3 7 5 floating up from the tombstone and they don't seem to be part of the scenery in the photo. Now that's spooky.

Yes. That whole 'hell' recording was described by someone to be the scariest thing they ever heard.

Give me a break.
 
Now, you people who believe this orb stuff...

There is a ring around the circumference of the orb that appears to be brighter than the rest of the orb. What is that?

If the bright 'ring' was the surface of the orb, wouldn't the entire surface look bright? There would be no ring. If anything, the surface of the orb 'closer' to the camera would be brighter, and the rest more dim.

The geometry works out only if the 'orb' is flat or slightly curved, maybe like the reflection off a camera lens.

In fact, the orb looks like it is being created by the guy holding the tape recorder, reflecting light directly into the camera lens.

Oh! but this would imply they are frauds, and knowingly creating the effect.

The orb's halo. :D
 
Now, actually, to be fair, I do have to point out one thing about the halo.

If the orb were translucent and hollow, then you wold get a halo type effect, as you are looking through a greater depth of material at the edges. I could give them that one.

Not, mind you, that I think there is anything to this than a few angles and some photons, but I had to point that out.
