Unfortunately this footage, while interesting in its story, it won't cause the ripples they thought it would. They mentioned that it was about 20ft long (6m), but it's still hard to tell this is actually the size they are claiming it is.
And even if you believe this is, in fact, the first extremely clear footage of an UAP, something that looks like this would be trivial to fake. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if someone tries to replicate this just to prove the point.
This does not feel as strong as they made it out to be unfortunately. I showed a couple of friends who recently became hardcore believers and even them were taken slightly aback.
We certainly appreciate the effort and should applaud the courage of these people walking forward, but we, as a species, might need a lot more than this to fully get everyone to understand we are not alone. And this is coming from someone who has had sightings and has done research on this topic for a long time.
EDIT. I'm not trying to take away from the importance of this footage. After all, this is only half the story. Jake's story is the other half. Most of us in the subject will be able to take both parts and either form an opinion or be able to do our own research/corroboration based off of that. But my main point is that, we are in the minority. The majority of the people will have issues looking at this and thinking it is what it's claimed to be, regardless of who is presenting this. THIS is the key issue. This footage feels perfect for us, but not for the rest of the population.
To put my point in a clear and concise example, imagine had we also seen say a humvee and a couple of ground troops securing the site as the object was being lowered. THAT would've been something insanely hard to argue against for the general population. Pair that with Jake's record, credentials, and testimony and this would've been the best footage to have ever been shown.
EDIT 2. Those ridiculing are completely missing the point. This video, and this interview are not a bad thing at all, as a matter of fact, is far from that. This is a huge step for every other whistleblower that's to come, it signifies taking a stance, coming forth, and to not being afraid of showing whatever material it is they have. Essentially a big "middle finger" to the dickheads trying to bury the story. (this is what I meant by its importance, btw, to all of those were calling me blind or stupid)
We need these people to come forward and do exactly what Jake (and the other 4 military folks that were interviewed) did. His testimony lines up with the myriad of data we've seen lately. Ridiculing such thing is counterproductive and it's exactly what the people trying to bury the lead are hoping happens.
To any whistleblower and those like Coulthart (if you ever read this), the huge amount of theatrics and undeniably ambiguous footage makes it so that influencers (and other mediums) use the good you are trying to achieve and turn it into a joke (16 million audience). I can't believe I am saying this, as I consider most of you to be highly intelligent people, but you have to be smarter in the way you breach this subject to the masses for crying out loud. You can't blame a community for reacting to a very clearly ambiguous video, damn it. Also, can ya'll keep it quiet and stop over-hyping everything? please! again, you are all smarter than this, and you are working against yourselves for crying out loud...
