Using a tesla's built in cameras was a GENIUS idea!!! Never would have thought to use it for anything else.

The aunt story made it more believable, it's always an aunt

[PotentialLegend]

I can't wait for the next episode of "Sam and Niko: Fool Us!"

[dahliaserrato]

I don’t know if you’ve tried yet, but faking ghost footage would be a really awesome thing to see next.

[SoCloseToToast]

Love the style of these videos! Feels like the Office but for VFX artists! Keep it up!

[John.McConnell]

I still wish you guys would do a "Fool Us" type show where people could submit their VFX shots to see if they can "fool you" into thinking it's real.

As a ufo I can confirm these videos are fake

[NavyDood]

This is beautiful. And this is also 100% why nobody ever takes the /r/UFO community seriously.

[jean-paulgagnon]

lol I’m actually the person who checked the metadata and called it out on Reddit. Funny to get this video in my recommendations now. Sorry that I blew your first attempt guys 😂

[PierreH]

One way to make it more believable is to have multiple sources of the footage from different angles like if it was a crowd looking at it... a scenario would be a tourist family stopping by, and two kids get their shot as well as the parents.

All aliens have to do is change our metadata, and no one believes they came

[goodisgoog]

At this point, I wouldn't even believe aliens existed if they showed up at my front door selling intergalactic scout cookies.

[jedsithor]

The only problem is, as soon as Niko and Sam see a video that they can't explain and has to be real, they'll know it was these guys lol

[TREVINparty]

"the ufo community is good at spotting fakes" well yeah of course they are EVERY video they see is a fake lmfao

[ZuukaClips]

I think something a lot of people forget is that UFO doesn't mean Alien. It's mean Unidentified Flying Object. If you don't know what something is, it's still a UFO.

[jucks]

Honestly, Jordan and Matt need their own spinoff channel at this point.

[weasel]

5:05 it's not a bug, it's a high speed drone. The owner of these drones went on a long tirade about this guy shinning lasers at his drones and damaging their cameras.

[HARPERSSON]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Please show how easy it is to fake ghost vids like you do UFO vids....please!!

[JadonLolley]

havent watched in a couple months again, and i come back and the content is just better than ever. Over the years, every time i come back, just wow, always progressing the video creation. I really appreciate Corridor Crew

“Turns out, the UFO community is really good at spotting fakes.”

Nowadays they can’t even tell a plane apart from a “UFO” lol
