The "Captured Grey Alien From Brazil" Full Explanation - Not A Hoax, But A Misunderstanding

This one was high up on my list of videos to include in our "fake files".

Videos are a funny aspect of the alien phenomenon. One might think, why would you fake something like that? Well, there could be many motivators for fabricating an encounter and taping it including but not limited to, money, notariety, or as a prank or practical joke at the expense of those who have truly suffered something otherworldly.


And then theres a less realized, yet more simple answer. They weren't trying to 'fake' anything, they were just being creative. Often times, artistic creations get taken out of context, and we see this a lot in both the alien pop culture as well as the AAT community. The upside to this type of misunderstanding is it can often be cleared up with a little bit of research.
