Is This Leaked Interview With An Alien Really A Message From Outer Space?

Quite how the video and the information relating to it was supposedly leaked is unclear but within just a few days the video went viral in the UFO community as ufologiest debated whether the alien in the clip, named "EBE-3" was the real deal, or was the whole thing another hoax like Ray Santilli's 1995 Roswell alien autopsy video.

According to the information that surrounded the leaked footage, EBE-3 was held captive for five days before disappearing from government records on the day the video was made.

During the course of the interview, it becomes apparent that the being isn't of extraterrestrial origin at all, he has actually travelled back in time from Earth's future and is in fact an evolutionary descendant of humans. He claims that his ancestors were the few humans who survived a nuclear war, which the alien says will occur in our near future.

Below is a complete transcript of interview which is just over four minutes in duration.

Many who have seen the video have commented saying that whether it's real or fake, the message the being is delivering is a great insight. Personally, if this were real I'd be annoyed that the interviewer wasted his time asking the alien about God and the meaning of life. A better line of questioning would have been "can we prevent what's going to happen to us?" or trying to probe the alien for information relating to cleaner energy or faster ways of travelling.

As it turns out the video is, of course, a fake and you only needed to click on to the uploader's channel on YouTube to discover a whole host of previous special effects work, much of which relates to UFO and aliens.

Isaac Koi, the UFO researcher who uncovered the video as a fake said, "I find it somewhat bemusing that anyone could have spent five minutes watching the video but not bother spending one minute looking into the uploader of the video, which would easily reveal these facts. I’m regularly bemused by the conduct of some people in ufology. So many things within ufology are the basis of speculation when a little bit of work reveals relevant facts. This applies to government documents in various archives as much as it does to 'UFO' videos on Youtube."
