This IS From a video game, and it was debunked here on FR months ago.
It isn't.
I sure you did enjoy it.
And I'm sure you'll have fun spending the $30MM USD (Thirty Million US Dollars) that is being deposited in certified funds to your personal account of which you may be keeping half for you trouble and assistance in the aid of this dispossessed Nigerian Prince related to you by fortuitous marriage of your lost second cousin. Sent to your attention by the same source named in former e-mail.
(Was that e-mail by any chance signed by Ed Mezvinsky? From a server hosting "Clintonmail.net"?)
Sorry. I’ve always been too trusting.
WOW!
I don’t think the Captain would have been impressed though.
Just postulating.
I’ll bet!
the author!!
of the email!!!
can’t possibly use any more hyperbole!!!!
and exclamation points!!!!!
OK, now I’ll watch. But my expectations are astronomically high.
OK, watched it. Fake. Debunked many times here on FR.
Video game, they have a F-117 up on the deck forward, not exactly a carrier aircraft.
It s from a video game. FAKE
This CG sequence has been around for a long time. Clever, but not real.
So fake.
now i feel like an idiot.
Why the hell would someone post something fake and say it was real?
No need for any apology. It could have (and obviously did) fool many.
Same way it happened the first time the link to this video was posted on F.R.
Website owners (not F.R.) sell advertising space to make money. That space is often made up of links to video of cats, or THE 25 CRAZIEST (any noun here will do), or videos just like the one this thread is about. People click on the link, go the the link, watch the video, then.... put it on FR because it's 'cool'. The website owners (their advertisers actually) change up this 'links' to keep people's interest. Eventually, they recycle those links. So, it's because this video is now in 'popular' use as LINK-CLICK BAIT.
Fake but accurate?
P.S. This one (per the FR POSTER) came from an email.
So someone else saw it, told them it was real, and then they posted it here.
You would be surprised how often something like this happens, over the years.
Some parts of capitalism are really annoying. But the alternative is worse :)
thanks for sharing that.
i’ve been sucked into the 25 most a bunch of times, usually about women :)
YOu’ll notice the “power bars” or energy or whatnot, at the bottom left and right of the video screen. Gaming video.
A cleverly done CGI video.
