Last night, I was watching the TV show Strange Evidence and noticed that they were going to show what’s been called the ghost pants video from a few years ago. I went to bed because I saw it on a similar show a few years ago. I doubted that it was solved yet. The clip shows a pair of white pants running down a street. You can’t see anyone wearing them.
There are a few interesting video-based paranormal TV shows. The one I think is pretty well done is The Proof is Out There, hosted by Tony Harris. I saw one which showed a photo of a girl whose image was different from her reflection in a mirror. The question was whether it was evidence for something paranormal, maybe proof of simulated reality.
Tony and the group of experts finally settled on it being unexplained. However, on a subsequent episode, Tony explained that someone had notified him that the photo was shot simply by using the panorama mode on a smartphone camera. It was relatively simple. Sena and I made a couple.
That was about the same time the YouTube video about the white ghost pants was circulating on the internet. Today I found a YouTube short video that shows essentially the same thing made by a couple of guys who also made a 10-minute video explaining how to achieve the effect. It’s below the short video. Of course, I don’t understand the technical explanation, but I think it might account for the ghost pants video.
