Just how big could a group of men construct a mylar balloon?  10 feet?
20 feet?  40?  Bigger???  Let's say a 30 foot mylar balloon were
constructed.  How would it be flown?  Perhaps from a electric windless
connected to a pick-up.  Or, if over water, from a speedboat.


What if the entire Mexico UFO flap of the early '90s was a complete
hoax based on the above information?  Would anyone believe it?  Would
anyone _want_ to believe it?


There were also nighttime sightings, but I can personally atest that
they are by far the easiest to fake (been doing it since 1974).
Daytime UFO sightings on the other hand require far more cunning,
boldness, and better models.  But it can be done.


The person(s) who pulled off the Mexico wave certainly did their
homework.  They flew their models when they were certain people would
be looking UP:  During an air show, and during an eclipse.  After that,
everybody began to look skyward and see the UFOs with regularity.


Hundreds of thousands of people were victim to the illusion, and it
deeply touched them.  No true close-ups of the Mexico UFOs exist, only
blurred and fuzzy videos.  Despite the fact that these UFOs appeared
regularly, I find it difficult to believe no one used a zoom lense.
Let me tell you what's really going on here:  The mexican media knew
full well it was all a sham, and may have even been involved.  But they
decided it would do far more damage to tell the public the truth and
destroy the illusion (not to mention their belief systems).


Close-up videos of the mexican UFOs surely exist, but they show too
much detail and it becomes obvious it's a mylar balloon, not a UFO.
But why destroy a good thing.  Many UFO schemes are cooked up for
tourism, and this is certainly one of them.
