Video of a ghost on a rollercoaster

How many roller coaster riders have you personally interviewed to ask if they ever crouch down? Is it more than zero?

I know why people ride rollercoasters because I have ridden many myself. They do it for the thrill of the ride and of seeing the scenery pass by them as they go up and then down on the rails, anticipating with excitement every approaching curve and rising hill and sudden descent. It's very visual. They don't crouch down to avoid experiencing this. It was a children's ride after all, not frigg'n Space Mountain.

And then suddenly completely disappearing from the car! No shadow crouching down or anything. So no, there was no crouching going on and the man even said there was no room to crouch down and noone got into that car or left the car when the ride was over. I infer that the shadow may be the apparition in the process of forming in the car as they are often witnessed to do. Or else just shadows on the car from overhead structures. Nobody would crouch down on a rollercoaster ride. It doesn't make sense.

Maybe he dropped his phone and had to crouch down to pick it up. It has been known to happen.

Who cares what you doubt about some guy whose mind you can't read?

The possibilities are endless: he wasn't on the cellphone - he dropped it and had trouble retrieving it as it skittered around on the floor and he was restrained by the seatbelt. It doesn't matter what or why - simply that he did.

Your train of thought boils down to Guy hiding behind a seat is too implausible, therefore ghost!

The simple fact is he can pretty plausibly be seen rising up from behind the seat in the video.


So yeah, this is done.

If he dropped the phone then he was holding it and using it. Any theory of him ducking down does not explain the minutes before and after where the car was seen as clearly empty. Hence that claim is totally refuted by the evidence.

This is why you're not taken seriously.

How do you think this video got on Youtube? Dad filmed it on the rollercoaster. Maybe spend a little more time comprehending what you're reading so you don't look so foolish.

Yes, people use recording devices on rollercoasters. This is fact, contained in the video itself.

Not that it matters, the phone hypothesis was just one example of the innumerable possibilities why the guy might be ducked down. Maybe he dropped his popcorn, his wallet, his bag of grappel grommets and they spilled everywhere. Who cares? Let's keep our eye on the ball shall we?

It's pretty apparent that he was crouched behind the seat, or at least certainly could have been. Therefore this case has no rationale for to resorting to ghosts.

His mother who was sitting in the car ahead of them filmed it. But the figure in the last car is not seen holding up a phone. Therefore he is not holding a phone.

One of the reasons why nobody takes you seriously is because we know you're not being serious. You're just funnin' us, seeing how long you can draw it out without breaking character.

I say this, not for your benefit, but for the benefit of new readers who might stumble into the middle of this thread and not know your documented history.

That's quite a claim. Perhaps you can back it up with evidence so everyone here can know you aren't lying and so take YOU seriously.

Why not report DaveC426913, then, for not supporting his claims, and see what moderation has to say? :biggrin:
