A few weeks back, a video of an alien body being captured by the military had gone viral, with nearly one million views on YouTube in just two weeks. The YouTube user UFOvni2012 posted the video in which an alien body lying on a stretcher can be clearly seen.

People were enthralled by the video in which the alien body looked real. Some believed it and some did not; a few others were skeptical about it, not knowing if it was real or not. OpenMinds.TV found out the truth and stated that a UFO researcher, Issac Koi, looked into the video and found that the video was not as it appeared to be. Though the military carrying the alien was real, the alien body was fake and the video was taken from a mock military battle. In the mock battle, soldiers "recover a fake alien from a crashed spacecraft," according the site.

In the video, one can read grammatically wrong sentences: "A UFO could have been an accident. The military had taken a dead Alien. Apparently they hid hidden the discovery." It then goes on to show the alien, zooming on to its body. In the end a question is posed to the audience about the alien being real or fake.

Koi, along with Aaron Rose of Ballahack Airsoft, conducted further research on the matter. Ballahack Airsoft is the largest Airsoft field in Virginia where acts of alien recovery are staged. Koi stated that "Airsoft is a sport in which participants eliminate opponents by hitting each other with spherical non-metallic pellets launched via replica firearms called Airsoft guns." He stated that the user recorded one of the alien recovery act and put it up on YouTube.

Several other YouTube users commented stating that the alien body was a fake and can be bought over the counter, OpenMinds.TV reported. Several comments also ridiculed the video saying it was an act and is not real. Christopher Wratten, a YouTube user, commented that the alien can be bought for $150 and he himself has taken a photo of it. Interestingly, he remarks that people have been uploading photos and images trying to pass it off as a real alien on the Internet. The alien body is available for sale online on Amazon.

The site stated that UFOvni2012 had probably known it was a hoax just like his other videos, which are apparently hoaxes too and have gone viral.. However, the video cannot be viewed on UFOvni2012's channel anymore as it has been removed, but several other users have uploaded the video with the same pictures.
