if it were (verifiably) on video, it wouldn't be paranormal, it would be science.
if you want paranormal content that may not be genuine i can recommend the horror section on netflix?
The only ones that host authentic paranormal footage are kind of ghost towns.
I'd still like to check them out if you have any in mind.
Sorry, all I had was a pun.
Tbh, your best bet is probably the 'related' videos of the ones you linked... but you kinda called it in your first edit - you're gonna get a lot of edited, scripted, etc crap cuz that's what 99% of paranormal footage is. The remaining 1% is stuff like this - just physics doing its thing, but super rare conditions that most of us have never heard of before that when it happens in the field of view of our dumbass monkey brains we tend to just pin an explanation to like "I saw a ghost/angel/alien/etc!"
That's pretty cool. Thanks for linking that.
I guess i was hoping for someone to post a link to a site that hosts "unexplained" phenomenon.
Like a nature cam that picks up something moving in a way that's not natural, or a CCTV footage of of a heavy ass cabinet falling over. Just something more interesting than what is currently available :(
Trail cam footage might have some potential to capture the whole physics-doing-their-thing incidents.
CCTV footage of a heavy cabinet falling over is 100% going to be a hoax. It's always going to be something like front loading to make the center of gravity unstable with a release mechanism that the angle doesn't show, or on a steeply inclined surface but with forced camera perspective to make it look like level ground. Movie magic. If you want good movie magic, look for paranormal movies with a decent budget and praise for practical effects - no random on the internet is gonna do a better job of that than Hollywood.
If you want unexplained phenomena, honestly I'd steer you away from the word 'paranormal' cuz that's just gonna get you theatrical shit; and turn instead to things like physics that deal with sub-atomic-tiny or like supermassive-black-hole-huge. We don't have a great understanding of physics extremes, so diving down those rabbit holes give a similar "...bruh what the fuck did I just watch..." but without watering it down with some dramatic asshole on screen saying shit like "WAS IT SPIRITS?? ARE THEY TRYING TO COMMUNICATE WITH US???"
Theoretical physics too... like, watching a clip on the point-line-plane postulate up to the 10th dimension will have you nodding along thinking "holy shit this makes sense!" but then when you try to explain to someone later you'll be hit with this Lovecraftian madness cuz without the lecture holding your hand through the entire process, you don't actually retain near enough to articulate it lol.
Thank you for your reply. I'd like to see trail cam footage of strange things happening.
I've got some research to do!
I'm pretty sure that's just a genre of video you can find on any video site.
do you want to post stuff? lots of people use YouTube.
do you want to browse through videos?
how are you defining "good"?
Yeah they don't have sites for actual Santa Clause, actual Easter bunny, actual space magic either man, I’ve been really suffering over it.
Yet there are sites dedicated to God 🙄
Those are mostly fan sites tbh
Thanks. Now I'm mopping up tea from my keyboard. LOL
