    Default Ghost or just mist in car ad?!

    This is a car advertisement from Great Britain. When they finished filming it, the film editor noticed something moving along the side of the car, like a ghostly white mist.

    They found out that a person had been killed a year earlier in that exact same spot. The ad was never put on TV because of the unexplained ghostly phenomenon.

    Watch the front end of the car as it clears the trees in the middle of the screen and you'll see the white mist crossing in front of the car then following it along the road.

    Is it a ghost, or is it simply mist? You decide. If you listen to the ad, you'll even hear the camera man whispering in the background about it near the end of the commercial. A little creepy but pretty cool!

    No, it's super cool, I mean...if this doesn't reaffirm people's suspicions that there are ghosts out there....this one surely will.

    Man that was pretty damn creepy. I still can't tell what it was though. Maybe someone else will chime in.

    How can you tell at such low resolution? The mist could be simple digital blek or water on the road ...

    first off, i've never ever been one to believe in the supernatural. but, wtf? i definately noticed the white mist. i had to really relax my eyes and everything to focus in on it though...and everything must be dead quiet to be able to hear the camera man. and also had to turn my crappy computer speakers up loud to hear him at all.

    I have to literally squint my eyes, and have the screen really close to my face to see the mist. Also, the music is really cool, it has those very soothing quality to it, recommended a listening level higher than usual.
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    I've seen this one soooo many times that I won't even watch it now... it's obviously not from Britain since the car is driving on the right-hand side of the road and the original is actually an ad for a German coffee drink.

    Picky picky picky... geesh. Can't even enjoy a good supernatual thought, without delving into which side of the vehicle the steerwheel is on. What is this world coming to anyways? Can you say, coffee beans?!?
