    And No it didn't come from the tabloids
    Tourists film 'alien' in the Amazon | News.com.au

    Interesting picture from the Amazon and what is interesting is these pictures always appear to show the same body form

    Didn't you notice Clete, whom ever it is, he's taking a leak? That might tell you it is a joke.

    Sorry didn't have my magnifying glass out. It looks like a dummy to me but it is worth the discussion

    It is almost Halloween after all, some kid couldn't wait to use his costume.

    It is interesting that the typical alien as depicted in movies is a humanoid with a large, bald head and large eyes. Using this shape in the photo makes it quick and easy for viewers to recognize that it's supposed to be a space alien we're looking at. If that photo depicted the alien as, say, a bug-like creature it wouldn't be as effective for the joke.

    In the middle of the Amazon jungle? Smoothy, halloween is a pecularly american custom that despite the best efforts of hollywood hasn't taken in other places. No, this is somethingelse, perhaps staged for the camera. As the article says the footage will be used in a movie so perhaps it is some form of promo

    They Celebrate Halloween in at least parts of Europe. I know because my Nephews there do every year, and they have never been to the USA. And they did when I was living there.

    Besides... everyone knows... Aliens only visit trailer parks, and take drunks out for a spin and poke before they bring them back.

    Your trailer parks maybe, we only seem to get them in the outback, way outback, perhaps they like a kangaroo bar-b-que

    Some type of people... different ends of the planet.

    Odd they never show up anyplace nice... or pick up NORMAL people if they were real.

    Just because they gravitate to TV shows like Jerry Springer... you would think any non-earthling would be mart enough to pick up people that at least bathe regularly, and don't have a pile of beer cans outside their windows.

    Could be that's what attracts them, perhaps they are recyclers. It would explain why they are found in the outback

    Maybe they are the Alien equivalent of our Trailer park Dwellers and your Outback dwellers. And seek their own kind... :D

    Only one problem about the alien weeing in the jungle. Aliens don't have to pee or poop or eat or drink for that matter. (at least the aliens I've met don't do this type of human necessity stuff).

    Who said the alien was doing anything other than being an alien. The posture appears to be unnatural, like as if it were a dummy, real tourist fare. It isn't seen to move

    Even if Aliens don't have to potty, after traveling millions of light years, I would at least want to air it out.
