        With the exception of the fence (which I can't explain) the rest is hilarious!!!

        "Appears as if he vanished into thin air" - I think you mean "he accelerated"!

        "Supernatural speed" - I think you'll find that "acceleration" word might explain this one too!

        "Driving like a man possessed" - I think you'll find he was driving like a criminal trying to confuse the police!

        I can't explain the whole fence thing but seriously, is there a need to try and ham-up the rest of the narration just to make it seem more spooky?

      That's easy-

      The fence was not secured at ground level, so the car just pushed through it, and it sprang back into place!

        I don't think so. First it is secured at the poles on either side and pulled tight with a come-a-long when being installed. At most the fence would only give about a foot or two of ground clearance if pushed on. Even if it wasn't secured to the poless on either side and somehow the car did push through it there would be movement after the fact and damage to the fence itself.

          I wonder if there is ever an office police explanation on that video?

          It seems stange that I can find the video all over the place but could not find any official commentary.

          The most famous haunting ever was this

          Lots of my friends and family have seen ghosts. I believe they do exist but I don't believe that they are the spirits of dead people.

            For goodness sake! It's a chain link fence - there ARE no ghosts, let alone ghost fences- and how the heck could a CAR be ghostly! It was never alive in the first place!

              The police car followed the car exactly and it lead him to a intact- stationary fence. How did the car go through it? You've explained nothing.

                Uhhh. No, he led the cops down a dead end road, and turned off it... They led themselves into an intact- stationary fence in a matter of 3 seconds after his escape. He obviously knew the roads better than they do.

                By the way, three cars went by on the road he turned off on. Whether he went through a fence or not is irrelevant.

      Thats key right there. Theres always a possibility since there is a lot we don't know. We do create many theories...

      Maybe life is just an illusion created by the senses. Nothing is what is seems...

          I have an open mind when it comes to anything and not doubting what you're saying can't be true.

          From your first post above you're saying what we see can be a "trick" (illusion) because we can see only 3 dimensions and there might be more that we can't see?

          An illusion is "being deceived by a false perception". Every one has there own perception of reality. Our senses make up part of our reality.

          The video above could be considered an illusion.

          If you're saying we can't see a possible 7 dimensions, how could life NOT be a possible illusion? Not seeing 7 dimensions would be considered a false perception, no?

              Thats the point. If the other 7D's (we cant see) are still there(possibly), but we can't sense them, then that could be considered a possible illusion. Which is why life could be considered an illusion.

              No matter what you call it- things in life aren't always what they seem. I can't explain that "ghost car" video and looks like the video even stunned the law enforcement over there. That video can't be explained as the evidence shows that he went right threw the fence with no explanation.

                The video doesn't show the car going through the fence. That's why it's still intact.

                If he went through the fence, he didn't go through that section of the fence... he was off camera, and the next time the camera showed the car it was already on the other side.

                  He was off camera for a spit second and I actually saw where the car went through and the cop followed him to the exact spot. Are you having trouble observing that?

                  Thats the meaning of the post- the car looks like it went threw the fence.

                  At 22 seconds, when paused, why can't I see a SOLID face?

                  Both cars are going slow and theres no reason why a solid face should not be on camera. Why can't I see a solid face? Weird...

    It is generally thought that the UK is the most haunted country in the world. But I don't think this is true, it could be that people are more skeptical in Western countries and are more likely to report sightings. Whereas in Asian countries, it is accepted that ghosts exist and people just do not bother to report them. However, a few spectacular sightings do get reported in the press from time to time.

    The most spectacular happened in the Hong Kong MTR more than 20 years ago. As a train was approaching the platform, a girl was seen to jump in front of the train. The train driver saw the girl and quickly slammed on the emegency brakers. There were scores of witnesses and the incident was captured on video camera. But behold, there was no body. The whole train was returned to the garage for servcing and they could not find any trace of a body.

    What happened afterwards was even more odd. A group of eminent private physicians were asked to see a girl in her twenties who was suffering from an unknown disease. She told the doctors that she was the girl on that day. She was standing on the platform when she felt something pushed her towards the train. As she was about to hit the train, she was teleported to another part of the station. She could hear a great commotion going on at that point and was shaking all over. She quickly ran away from the station.

    She then claimed that in her dreams, a spirit told her that they had saved her and told her not to tell anybody. But of course she did and then she developed this unknown disease and died. Perhaps she made up the whole story but one of the doctors involved was a family friend and I believed him.

      This post reminds me of when I was about 13 yrs old.

      Its was 2 am and me and my friend were walking home from getting a late night snack. We happened to pass by this church (i used to be a member when I was younger) and I heard a loud, deep noise. Since I have no idea what the noise was (it sounded like some type of evil spirit- that you might here in a ghost movie). I heard it a second time and looked at my friend. The 3rd time we heard it we both ran away, lol.

      What was the noise? Why was there noise in the church at 2am? It was NOT a humans voice or noise.. It was too deep and loud. Maybe an exorcism? I really don't know what it was, but it didnt sound friendly and it def. scared the $hit out of me.

      I have no idea what it is. It could even be fake, I have no idea. I have seen it before though.

      I do think the "ghost car" is the most compelling as far as for "supernatural" things. A police car follows another car that goes threw a fence? Pretty freaky stuff.

        The blue thing does look like an added effect onto the videotape itself. Probably something was running on the lense of the videocam.

      Energy can't be created or destroyed - it can only be transformed. That means we are real, the universe is real. But the nature of what this formation of energy takes in the whole, which consists of other dimensions and very possibly an infinite number of universes is not something we can detect from our third dimensional plane of existence.

      If you were a one or two dimensional being, you would not be able to see the third, but you would see effects from the third - such as light.

      Time, or at least our perception of it, is also derived from our 3rd dimensional experience of a 4th (or greater) dimensional phenomenon.

      Death itself might just be the shift in our consciousness from the 3rd to another dimension, or from this to another universe. We already know that in this universe, our energy can not be destroyed, so it damned well goes somewhere. Science has shown that our perception of "solid" is nothing but a dense organization of energy waves.

      When we think we know the answers, we shut our minds and eyes to being able to perceive the truth. As far as truth goes, though --- I don't think we can get there from here. I am hoping for one blow away of a punchline at the end of this joke.

    Derek- Westerners are skeptical and more likely to report a ghost? Report it to who? The police? To issue the ghost a nuisance ticket? They'd probably lock you up for being insane if u called to report a ghost. If I saw a ghost I wouldn't report it to anybody LOL Or maybe just the OT

    Well, I have kept this back for ages, and this is no spoof - 17 seconds in - extra lead guitar was heard by both Pete and I - he's playing up the fret board, I did some lead, and the resident ghost added a bit! No joke - very often my wife and I hear my guitars being strummed all on their own.
    In fact we both heard someone moving about and both of us looked around!!
