I think it's a bit odd that none of the reporters made any special mention of the ruckus there at the end of the video.
With the loud roar and all that shit flying into the air...you'd think at least one of the reporters would say, "WTF?".


unless they thought it was a delayed reaction explosion, since they are saying it was explosions that brought it down, the debris at the end and sound do sound and look like explosions

even tho thats the case, its kinda hard to not think of something else then explosions but since they aren't there they have to take the companies word on what happened



True...we know it's the monster making that sound...but they don't have 2 trailers and 10 commercials to compare it to. Wink

is it not news that Tagruato is forming their own private army?! a ninja army? Maybe it's lost in all of the new visual fun, but that I think that is a new and big revelation, adding a ton of possible depth as far as I'm concerned. I get this weird, Blackwater vibe. I'm guessing there is more conspiracy behind things than meets the eye. Just sayin'

If it hasn't been explicitly pointed out, I'd guess that the ninja guys have masks on because they are Tido.

Last note - wasn't the rig reportedly made utilizing new materials from the Bold Futura (Parafun?) division? Small point, but the materials used could change the ordinary physics of debris from the station. Probably not, but whatever.

What could possible eject those things out of the water like that? Multiple blow holes? it's the best mystery in the videos.

Don't you hate when people don't follow along. Especially the media. You would think they would be up to date on this stuff.

private army maybe to protect themselves from TIDO perhaps?

and remember they also had a recall of parafun wax a month or 2 ago

and the ninja guys are from tagruatos private army, as they have the tagruato symbol on their arm, kinda like what you see in the Trailer, where the US Army has the American flag on their arms just below their shoulders

I would think that the ninja masks would be used as convenient disguise for Tido guys on the station. I dunno. Assuming there are deeper levels to the story, I'm not writing off anything to be what it seems, including U.S. officials. Probably comes from my desire to have the film spawn IG conspiracy theories.

i'd rather believe they are Tag. Ninjas, if they wanted to pin something on TIDO, it'd be best to replace their logo with TIDO's, but since you can see gunfire and the guy pointing the gun to behind the scientists, i'd say its safe to assume they are from Tags private army

Wow! That's cool! And I'm belated, thanx to all translators.

I've got the message about the video not from this forum, but somebody "Anonymous" commented my blog with following text (in german): "I've found this video per coincindence. Could it be a new CF-clip?" and the link: http://lustich.de/videos/fernsehen/mysterioeser-bohrinsel-untergang/ (German Version).

The same comment (anonymous) commented in the same time so another German Cloverfield blogs.

I've sent a mesage to Choppi (lustich.de), who uploaded the video about where did he got the video.

And: there are no channel NNC in German. Its just JJ Abrams: palindrome of CNN.

Am I the only one that just thinks the guys in black ("ninjas") are just in-house security? Lots of companies like Tagruato (oil companies, technology companies, etc.) have their own in-house, highly-trained, armed security squads. My guess is they're just part of the security team stationed on Chuai. Why they pointed the gun at the camera? Pure coincidence I say. The guard was probably just trying to figure out why somebody was bothering to film when they should be running for a boat.

BTW many international companies use English as their primary language. Unlike us in the states most other cultures are at least bilingual and many times English is learned likely because Americans are too ignorant to learn a different language.

I have travelled for the company I work for to many countries and never had to speak anything but English (being an ignorant American). So I think that it is highly believable that you will see a multinational company like Tag to use English as its primary language at work.

Not one set of oriental eyes behind those masks. If Tagruato was going to build a private army, wouldn't they be recruiting a little closer to home?


Since this station is in the middle of the Atlantic so American and Europe is closer to home. This is a multinational company. They just hired a American as the VP of Marketing. They have French engineers on Chuai. Heck, even their website is in 13 different languages.

Possibly mercs, but why go with an unknown when they could simply bring men in from Bold Futura, their military division.



Bold Futura is an engineering firm, not security guards. My father in law is an engineer for a private sector company that works on military satellites and you would not catch him or anyone that he works with playing hall monitor on an oil rig.

You're right, alot of companies use English as their main language because mostly Canadians and Americans use/buy their products.

I can see that in the states it doesn't really matter if you can speak any other languages. In Canada it's almost mandatory if you want a good job. Almost all good jobs in Canada require you to be able to speak both english and french.
