Strange Alien Stick-like creatures caught on security camera

[A99]

I recently checked out Whitley Strieber's site and found this You Tube video that he believes to be authentic.
"A retired couple was having trouble with break-ins in their Yosemite private property and aimed their security camera at the driveway to video visitors. They caught these things on their security camera and called me over to see because they know I am interested in the paranormal. They gave me this digital copy but I can't figure out what the crap they are! They remind me of the Fresno Stick-like creatures but they seem to transfer weight and there are two here. Is one a baby? What are these!? Nightcrawlers? Stickmen? Something new? What?"

Here's another explanation for what they could be.

"Local tribes near Yosemite have oral history of these. A friend says they are called, "Toh-tok-uh-noo-lah-ee-chee," or 'measuring worm people.' They can run very fast and climb nearly vertical cliffs but are said to saunter to save energy. Native lore says they spray foul odor to protect. They supposedly have little faces in the tiny top 'head' section and flexible joints. They can camouflage like a squid when they need to. They are said to eat plant matter. Their talk twitters like birds"

Also read that one of the paranormal shows on TV also captured a recording of these beings. Will do a look up on that one too.

In this video, their steps are uneven, like a puppet on a string. I saw the first video where one of these things showed up, but the creature in that video had a steadier cadence.

Here's an analysis of that video:

They do not look anything like puppets to me in fact, their strides are very, very smooth.... to the point of looking very surreal and unworldly. But that's not surprising because they are interdimensional. If you've ever witnessed any interdimensional beings of any sort, you will find that they all move that way.

Here's an excellent presentation of photographs of aliens done by Jamie Mausson at a UFO conference. Hard core ETHers get flustered when they see photo's or vids of aliens that look apparitional-like because such evidential material is more supportive of the ET/UFO Interdimensional theory than their own. So for this reason they are too quick on the draw to dismiss such photographic material like what's being show in this presentation.

Caught my attention that at 1:42 the reporter says that the Night Crawlers are allegedly hard to see. Yet, supposing that the footage is genuine and these aren't something else, like birds (some speculate so among the comments on this page (http://www.midnighthollow.com/2010/10/fresno-california-night-crawler/)), they show up really visibly. That could lead one to speculate that these beings may be giving off some light that's mostly in the infrared range as a digital camera's sensors can easily pick up infrared light. Of course, without having been there and having seen these one cannot really ascertain how visible these supposed beings are with the naked eye.

Also, the part beginning at 4:41 making the connection with the drawing of a distinctly different being might be a bit of a stretch IMO.

I am not saying this is the answer... but it is fun to watch and it adds a new perspective....

Um.... er, so the tall one is walking on stilts then (down a rather steep slope even!)? Lol, I think not. Good try though Marvin.

Not sure but to me it seems that the "legs" are flapping a bit. Like someone wearing baggy pants. Just saying........

[A99]

I'm not seeing any "flapping" at all in the legs of either one of those beings in the video below. Could you tell us which part of the video where you are seeing that?
All I'm seeing is that there is a peculiar flatness to those beings... as if they are not very thick in dimension. We can see this more with the tall one than the short one because it is closer to us in the movie. But as for seeing what looks like extraneous fabric that's flapping in a breeze, in my observation of the beings in the video below, I'm not seeing that at all.
Also, it should be added that this "flatness" of dimension, and that they are white too, of strange entities caught on film of any type of being, a grey looking being being one of 'types' that often times have looked like that... it seems that such traits are ubiquitous in this kind of photographic material. IOW's, the flatness in dimension and that they show up in an almost glowing white seems to be a common thread in evidential photographic material of beings that fall into the high strangeness category. It is very important for anyone who calls themselves an expert in photographic analysis of paranormal anomalies to be aware of such common traits that are seen in many photographs of this nature. In material such as this, normal physics is thrown out the window and is not relevant because the shadowing, lighting, movements of parts of 'them' etc are completely contrary to what may be going on in the physical environment at the time when they are captured on film. In analysis of paranormal photography, it is imperative that the photographic analysis is conducted by an expert in paranormal phenomena on a very comprehensive level and by someone who has an even extensive experiential background in this area too including extensive knowledge on how such phenomena is translated on film. Those who focus only on the physical aspects and the physics of what is seen in photo's are over their head when it comes to analyzing photo's with paranormal phenomena in them. IOW's. because of their lack of knowledge about paranormal phenomena and how it shows up in photographs or videos, they are not qualified to even determine if the anomaly is paranormal or not... once photoshopping has been ruled out.
