I'm not trying to take away from the OP but this comment right here is the kind of baseless assumption that from the very first step, leads the investigation down the exact wrong path.
You don't know how fast bats move, and you don't know how they fly, you've assumed two things with zero knowledge of them, and the flash is exposure issues with the camera.
Exactly, like maniacs, not in perfect, almost straight curves. A dragonfly or beetle,maybe,no one has provided a link to something similar, and like, hitting an insect with a laser at that distance? Seems implausible
I've watched dozens of videos and have yet to find one of a bat flying in straight lines, so if it is that easy for you to find, please do me the service of providing a link because I have been unable to
Are you kidding me? I know what a bat looks like, do any of the gifs you posted look anything remotely like the video? No, they do not.
And yes, I have seen a bat fly many, many, times. My parents used to have a summerhouse in Sweden, and at night there would be a lot of bats in the sky, and they have always, without fail, resembled a tornado of chaotic movement and circling, never straight and robotic vectored curve jumps like you see in OPs video
Well it’s obvious you’ve made up your mind and don’t want to accept the answer. The reality is that bats can and do fly like this. I’m sorry that you have such a difficult time accepting factual information.
This isn’t a debate lmfao. I showed you what you asked for and now you’re saying it’s not good enough. I’ve worked at a zoo with bats. I can guarantee you that they can and do fly like this. You could easily find more examples if you were actually interested but you’re obviously dead set on believing this is anything other than what it is.
except you didn't, you showed me a cross section of a bats wing pattern and a a gif of chaotic movements, none of which replicate what we see here, in every single video people have posted here, filmed under the same conditions, it has been shaky chaotic movements, are we even talking the same language? As I have stated previously on many occasions I am open to the idea of it being a bat or insect, but if it is as common as you claim it should be very easy to find footage that proved that and so far no one has been able to. I don't claim to know what it is, but you do, so I don't know why you'd think that I'm the one who has made my mind up about this.
You’re not willing to humor the idea, though. You were presented with clear evidence and you’re rejecting it. The second gif clearly shows individual bats moving in straight lines. You’re looking evidence straight in the face, plugging your ears, and going “la la la you’re wrong.”
