I recall talking to some military-types waaaaaay back in the 1970's. They were conducting some sort of nightvision test in King George Square in Brisbane.
At one point their device (a camera I think) detected a person walking from one side of the square to another – yet, at that time of the morning, there was not a person in the square.
They kept looking from the square to the device and swear that there was nobody visible to the naked eye.

Hi again Orion, welcome back.
RE: Air temperature and thermal cameras. What about this infamous video? Or is it fake? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v…..xZkpG1naIw
I'm no expert, but on the face of it, I would think it's fake on the basis of body temperature. If the guys skin shows as white, shouldn't also the gas that's immediately expelled from his body, or at least be close in temp/color? Then again, it could all come down to calibration too I imagine – I have no experience with thermal imaging. It does look like petrol vapor, but I'm not sure what the "average" temp would be in a gas pump.
Regards Grant's flashlight, I tend to agree with you Nosfer.. but then again too, maybe if entities draw heat energy out of the air, they also do so from material objects, leaving the flashlight cold? I guess we'd have to know how ghosts can "do" this, whether via radiation, convection, conduction, or some combination. Surely some expert will get right back to us on that..

I'm waiting to hear from them as we speak lol
Good point, and I also wonder why they never drain the flashlight battery when they interact with it if they are drawing energy out of it… hmmmm…

These particular IRs operate a bit differently as far as the gas detection is concerned. Depending upon polarity, the gas cloud shows up either as black or white. So in this case, it COULD very well be a legit video.

Have been in contact with J&G.
They determined that it is an Ass-Ghost.
Jason said this was verified when Grant exclaimed, "Did you hear that"!
