Quote:The mysterious case of ‘Skinny Bob’ – the alien UFO pilot 'captured by the KGB'
A creepy video of an 'alien entity' said to have been recorded by Soviet scientists has been claimed by some
UFO enthusiasts as the clearest look yet at an extraterrestrial

No-one has ever tried to make any money from the footage, which some experts estimate would have cost in
the region of $250,000 to create.

Daily Star:
I remember the Skinny Bob videos. I still have copies of the originals around here somewhere - there were at least 3 of them, with faked scratchy-film KGB logos at the beginning of them. Our little globe-trotting Judy claimed to have gone off on a jaunt to Antarctica to purchase them at great personal expense and no small amount of danger and international intrigue, because everyone knows that all world governments keep their UFO videos archived in Antarctica so that the aliens stored in various hyper-secret bases around the Earth can't get their scrawny little long-fingered hands on them!
The reason "no one ever tried to make money on them" was because we linked Judy to "Ivan0135" immediately upon their release to the internet. Ivan posted them to his YouTube page where he also had posted several scandalous videos making all manner of improbable claims regarding the stalwart character of the investigators hounding Judy around the globe... and voila! The connection was made, and chances at selling rights to video vanished.
Poor, poor Judy - can't a girl catch a break?

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
