On November 7th 2004 something terrifying happened on a German TV Channel ('Prosieben') while commercials were running.

People who were watching it mostly agree that it happened more or less like this:

- during a commercial for MINI (the car brand) suddenly the picture goes static

- some sort of greenish-looking "Alien"-like creature is shown, possibly sitting or standing behind a desk

- the creature says something, (some people mention that it was speaking into a microphone and reading off of a piece of paper or something)

- at some point it starts looking to the left and then back at the camera (some say it had a 'confused' or 'belligerent' look on its face)

- picture goes static again for a few seconds, commercials continue like normal


WTF

The next day, a show on Prosieben picks it up ('TV-Total') and talks about it.

"Yeah guys, its a "Pirate Advertisement" for Halo 2, all good."

They re-run the clip:

It's completely fabricated, the quality is way better and everything looks different.

Someone uploaded this "fabricated rerun" of the commercial that was shown the next day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oht1M1Nqx7M

Most of the comments are in German. Almost all of them are talking about it being completely different etc. People are also saying how it freaked them out when they saw it back then on TV.
>>
I feel like someone genuinely hacked the german tv channel, and in order for them to keep their reputation of being a well protected channel, claimed it was a halo 2 ad to not freak anyone out. Atleast thats what i think :P

Weird too that even the fake one, seemingly has nothing to do with a video game.

Is that creature even in Halo?

Wonder what people who worked for Bungie at the time have to say about this "ad".

Was there some marketing partnership with Mini? Why would it only have been shown once? None of it makes sense. If it was an ad, it was terrible at selling something.

it doesn't even fit the feel of halo , like halo has some secret occult lore I think.

but like nothing that fits a wierd glowing man , this is comepletly alien to halo.

Interesting that the commercial itself is about deception...with the car being revealed as a mini rather than a GREEN (like the alien, lol) race car, then the fake re-do commercial the next day..
>>
>>38407210
why do reshoots if its an add.

also I know adds take creative liberties but like the alien is to wierd to be a hallow 2 thing like its a whole different desing fillosophy

This is really intresting to me, the fact so many people remember it.

Maybe we can get the fruit of thenloom cornucopia back if we find the alien kek.

In all seriousness, why would they make a fake one? Unless the advert is parodying the event in the first place.
>>
>>38412091
Every incident like this is crafted and given a normie narrative that, no matter how bogus, is used by the Agent Smith effect to discredit and gaslight any who speak their version of events.
>>
>>38412091
Whatever was shown on November 7th was most definitely not an advert.

The shit they came up with the next day might be a Halo 2 ad, albeit a very odd one.

Normally I would brush this incident off as a Mandela Effect, or people who where kids in 2004 misremembering something they found creepy.

The only reason why I believe the alien you see in the reconstruction is a fake one, is because it has absolutely nothing to do with the Halo series. Not a single alien species in that game looks even remotely like the one in the video.

It really gives off the vibes that whoever calls the shots panicked and used the popularity of the Halo franchise at the time as an excuse to try to explain the incident.

Now, would the original have been a real alien? I don't necessarily know, I do believe in aliens but I don't necessarily believe that they would broadcast something exclusively to Germans lol.

Interesting story, nonetheless, I hope one day the 'real' recording is found. Someone must have it on a dvd player or something.

https://www.horizont.net/marketing/nachrichten/-Microsoft-und-Mini-bringen-innovativen-TV-Spot-53787

Munich, November 4, 2004 - Microsoft and car manufacturer MINI have come up with an unusual advertising idea for the launch of the new space adventure “Halo 2” for the Xbox video game system. On Sunday, November 7, 2004, ProSieben viewers will experience the first “Pirate Advertising” spot on German television at around 7:10 pm. During the broadcast of the current MINI TV commercial, the television picture is suddenly interrupted and then disappears completely for a moment. A little later, the blurred outline of an alien appears, making unintelligible noises. After a brief flicker, the MINI commercial continues. The innovative cooperation spot between MINI and Microsoft lasts a total of 40 seconds and can be seen once only at the start of the campaign on ProSieben. The Munich agency Avantgarde (production: PI Group, Hamburg) is responsible for the creative realization of the “Pirate Advertising” spot.

The “Pirate Advertising” spot on ProSieben marks the start of the advertising campaign for the new video game “Halo 2” from Microsoft Xbox, which will be released in stores on November 11, 2004. In addition to classic advertising measures and the “Pirate Advertising” spot, Microsoft Xbox is relying on various guerrilla and promotional measures under the motto “Save the world from aliens”.

Translated version of the 'cover-up' article. According to some this article was put out AFTER the incident with a fake date.

the UK one from 1991 really has been erased from all media

-saturday morning program for children
-ready for cartoon
-instead cut to prince charles who has his back to the camera. he is muttering to someone
-he turns towards the camera as third unseen person starts to cackle
-immediately cut back to the presenter who is looking dead into the camera with a creepy performative shocked expression
-she has a white scarf over her mouth

Bros it looks like a voln from falling skies and that show felt like soft disclosure, especially considering that the voln were good guys and there was another benevolent race that lived in the water. Any one else seen it ?

the original "commercial" was aired a few times on Latin America in a program called "INSOMNIA"
A program that aired different commercials from around the world, after midnight, the thing is, said program is considered lost media now too.

halo aliens just seem more animalistic and """"grounded""" than that alien , like that alien is more trying the eldrich alien look.

sometimes aliens look more silly but like , then they are way more alien than this one.

idk he looks more startrek than halo.

It's like what they did with the alien selfie. They parodied it until people thought it wasn't real.
>>
>>38415203
I think it's that the germans had an intelligence community officer intercept something being recorded in russia or the usa and was able to ilegally broadcast to german television but wasn't able to blow the whistle properly.

It's why Luis Elizondo and David Grusch are coming out about these things now.

Revelation 6: 12-17
>>
>>38423436
it's hard to gain info about that show, it aired in Mexico in the early 2000s but also aired in other Latin American countries and Texas.
And as an old and obscure program most zoomers don't remember it but beaner oldfags have some knowledge about Insomnia and there are a few other weird "commercials" that aired too
-The green glowing alien
-The bloody medical station
a PSA of a NGO that didn't exist
-Children of the moon
a commercial from Daewoo Electronics which devolves into a ritual-like footage
A popular theory is that Insomnia aired MK-Ultra footage disguised as commercials from time to time, using Latin America as a testing area to see the effects that it caused in-masse
>>
>>38407210

Thought this was a LARP at first, glad to see it is not. Also, idk how related this is, but I know there was an ad about a reptilian that was eating pizza delivery guys or something like that. IDK when it was released though. I will post it here when I find it.

What people are mentioning in the link is that the video is totally different from the original.

The image freezes for several seconds

The alien is sitting at a desk and there is a microphone in front of him.

I've never heard of this, it sounds very interesting.
Does anyone know if the alien looks different in the original video that aired?
>>
>>38432303

>Does anyone know if the alien looks different in the original video that aired?

I am wanting to know that too.I think I heard a few people say it was scarier. I wonder if it was more demonic than alien?

So I was watching a tv show on a local channel at around 10pm when suddenly the signal began shit itself and then the video for the gorillaz song 19-2000 came like a weird signal intrusion and this continued for about 10 secs before I heard a loud buzzing and a skinless eyeless face appeared on the screen for about 5 secs then the tv show I was watching continued as usual.
I thought it was a nightmare for the longest time but recently I've heard tons of people saying they also witnessed weird shit in that channel around that era
>picrel closest thing i could find to what i saw
>>
>>38417787
i swear ive seen this
there were dancers in lycra on the show just before
you pulled up a memory from nowhere anon
>>
>>38433747
Which channel it was? Is there even information about this? sounds like a topic that would appear along with the Canal 5 cases
>>
>>38434041
Tv azteca and the show was either historias engarzadas or historia detras del mito i dont remember the name but it was one of these types of shows, it appeared on a few icebergs as "entes etereos en transmisiones de tv azteca"
>>
>>38433747

Looks pretty terrifying, the real one probably even more so. Any theories? Why the Gorillaz music? Is the music cursed? What did you see? A demon?
>>
>>38435045
> Any theories?
Either I somehow managed to be the only witness of a fucked signal intrusion or it was some demonic ass shit.
>Why the Gorillaz music? Is the music cursed?
I have no idea, I still wonder why the music? It's just bizarre as hell
>What did you see? A demon?
I talked to my family about it and they all agree it was most likely a demon.
>>
>>38435070
Like when people talk about seeing weird stuff in that channel it was usually things like shapes after sign-off or small glitches not something as extreme to what I experienced so what the fuck did I saw?
This happened like 23 years ago and it still keeps me up st night.
>>
>>38435148

Ok, so no other incidents to this level on there. Hmm....any other weird things on your TV or in your home in general?
>>
>>38435237
I recall hearing a voice calling me when I was home alone when I was 4 years old, and my grandma told me she once saw a black blob hovering over my crib when i was a baby.
My mother practiced witchcraft so it could be related.
>>
>>38435263

>My mother practiced witchcraft so it could be related

That will do it. Did she ever stop?
>>
>>38435273
Nope, she got more extreme actually
I'm talking shit like beheading roosters and mixing the head with blood for rituals.
>>
>>38435292

Dang, wtf!!! So, is she still alive?(just curious)
>>
>>38435352
Yeah but no idea if she still does witchcraft.
I guess that could explain the face but I still wonder about why a gorillaz music video of all things.
>>
>>38435386

Maybe they have curses in their music like some say almost all popular music does, and so it was linked with the demon. IDK, just spitballing.
>>
>>38435386

Oh, I should ask if you remember which song it was from? I doubt it asit was so quick and long ago.
>>
>>38435386

FR, do you remember which Gorillaz song it was?

Insomnia originally aired on Azteca too
>>
>>38437765
and the original Insomnia (not the re-made program) aired from 2000 to 2003
>>
>>38407210
probably an early attempt at viral marketing through mandela-like methods
>>
>>38437765
Insomnia was the international commercial program, right?

Apparently, several strange events occurred on Mexican television stations late at night. It makes sense since both television emporiums are involved in witchcraft

Wtf bros only thing I can find on this intriguing strangely obscure show. Any anons got anymore info about it? Me thinks it was an mk ultra type experiment at this point.

Only thing I can remember is that it happened on a sunday, it was 2001 and It happened after august.
Oh and the show was talking about two old time mexican singers, pedro infante and jorge negrete.

Does anyone else remember a time when aliens didn't have lore but were basically just green Mars men?

You are Mexican? It is well known that television stations carry out black magic rituals to obtain "success". Actors, musicians, producers, etc., all of them are involved. If you speak Spanish, I invite you to search for videos on this topic on YouTube.

these were so common in the UK during the 80s and 90s there were adverts directly parodying them

like the Quosh advert, parody of signal hijacking (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXg4EkFjmKc) there were several others... i thought the 1991 one was most famous but looking online i cant find anything at all
the line "any XXX can XXX, but only XXX can QUASH IT" was known before the parody

its exactly as described above. i remember prince charles too
>>
>>38439624
Some time ago I saw a video of a hijacking of the TV signal in the UK by the galactic federation and asthsr will be. I think that happened in the 80's...
I am a totally different person now than when I saw that video 5 years ago and I no longer believe in these new age characters. Was the same UK reptilian elite preparing the new era with these alleged signal hijackings?

>said program is considered lost media now too
The Mexican dub of "Believe it or Not", "Aunque Usted No Lo Crea" was considered lost media too until it started appearing on youtube in 2022, so there's hope someone has it and it appears one day.
There's many such programs being exchanged in communities where you give something rare for something rare, so if you release it publicly it loses its value, but all it needs is someone willing to do that anyway.
