Something odd....


I just hopped onto Youtube to check on a couple subscriptions I have, and Entry #40 was back on my [Uploaded] Section....


Said it was uploaded 13 minutes ago.


I figured that didn't sound right, but I'm staring at it right now on my other screen, says 17 minutes ago now, but I'm rather confused by this.


I suggest investigating?

So, I'm brand new to the whole Marble Hornets thing. I must say, I'm hooked! I just got through watching all of the entries over the course of 2 days.

So here's why I'm posting. I noticed something that I don't think anyone else noticed yet, within #40.

At 2:01, there is a white flash on the left hand side of the screen. At first, it looks like just some lens flare, or auto-adjustment of the lens.

Now go play it again and pause, and tell me that you do not see a tiny little mask shape, grinning at you...... O_O;; Then keep watching, very closely in that area as Jay keeps walking (once you've seen that little mask thing) and tell me that you do not see what looks like a figure, moving along through the trees, right before it blacks out, and you hear the noise distortion... AS IF J is walking ALONGSIDE of that figure!! PLEASE tell me I'm hallucinating, and have been watching this way too long! lol.

As a side note, I'm starting to think that the strange masked and faceless entities find Jay (and Alex, and even Jessica) THROUGH the cameras - as if the cameras are portals. (First, the one video where the girl is playing with Alexs' camera made me think this, since he tells her to put it away, and SM shows up immediately after it is turned on - and now THIS video, with SM, as if the "always know where you are" thing comes through having some sort of connection to the camera itself.)

Oh, and here's a link to a screen cap, if someone can't find it. Youtube was being weird with its seconds read-out, like it is sometimes, so last night it said 2:01, and I got the screen capture at 2:02.

There's way too much motion blur for me to make out a mask. It's probably just a trick of vision.

[RhadaDhatri]

Perhaps, but I find it odd that the tree that the little tiny white flash is next to is the same tree that Jay pans back over to as he's walking along, then suddenly the shot blacks out and there's distortion when it recovers. (Like something tele-ported in, maybe?)

I wouldn't have thought anything of it at all, except for the very very brief white operator symbol on Alex's face during the birthday footage... this whole series has me jumpy, and I'm constantly evaluating everything that the camera pans to or does as a clue - even random little things that happen that ordinarily wouldn't mean anything at all. In fact, at first I thought that the flash I saw on the left (out of the corner of my eye) was going to be the operator symbol, but seeing something that's kind of a mask? Can't be coincidence in a series where masks are all-important. It's just a weird artifact. I found myself wondering if "did you see me? I saw you" was a reference to that tiny mask thing, like someone was watching Jay off to the side as he was walking in that shot and they were blurred out of the shot - maybe it was not just about seeing Slender. I don't know, I just thought the artifact looked more... _solid_ than just plain motion blur should or would be. (I say this because I also have a small amount of experience in manipulating photos, so getting far into the pixels is a common occurrence for me. It just looked manipulated in, or as if something was blurred out.) I get that it's a long shot but it's odd to me anyway. I thought it might be an important thing.
