Shadow creature filmed by security guard

[Magical Realist]

Not to mention a door banging by itself in the basement of a stadium of all places..

"Security guard Raul Arguello, 32, unknowingly captured a 'ghost' while filming himself investigating why a dressing room door had been repeatedly opening and slamming shut at Tomás Adolfo Ducó Stadium in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He was filming on his mobile phone in the hopes of catching the culprits on camera, however - when he opens the door, no one is there. Instead, he records the fleeting instant a spectre quickly passes along the benches, crossing the video frame from left to right and disappearing through the wall."

Meh, janky ventilation/breezeway effect and a door that doesn't latch, followed by the guy's own shadow reflected in a mirror.

"Raul was shattered after the incident and soon handed over his resignation letter. He is now working with a different security agency."

If true, that would seem to absolve him of any shenanigans, unless he was already planning to leave for some other reason. I don't know about the shadow -- camera seems more or less fixed while the furtive movement transpires?

Shadow size akin to a kid's? Difficult to discern if there really were zero concealment places in there or not for a "yute". Hiding in there when Raul comes in and then being stealthy enough that he eludes Raul from behind, casting the shade for the camera?

If there wasn't a fourth episode of banging, then might be the only time _X_ slipped out when Raul investigated. Be nice to have clear, static views of all the interior so the possibility of covert spots could be dismissed or not. Looking forward to the day when a high resolution smartphone is owned by a frightened individual somewhere on the planet.

Yep..a prankish effect of a strong breeze in a basement opening and slamming a door shut repeatedly. lol I've lived on earth 61 years and have never heard of such an "effect".

Well, we all know you don't get out much. Who knows how long you've been agoraphobic.
You've also live on Earth for 61 years and can't read simple English. Your point? o_O

We all know pressure differentials slam doors all the time. The difference is most doors have latches or are heavy enough not to rebound dramatically. That "door" looks like nothing more than a sheet of plywood.

We all know pressure differentials slam doors all the time.

Only doors to rooms with windows open and on a windy day. And they only close. They don't open and slam shut over and over again, suggesting a breeze that somehow is moving in both directions. And never in basements where there are no windows. Sorry...these are just basic facts of life.

Again, learn to read. I just said "The difference is most doors have latches or are heavy enough not to rebound dramatically." You do know that when a slammed door rebounds that means it opens, right? o_O

And I already mentioned ventilation, which can also easily create the pressure differential to slam a lightweight plywood door. Or are you completely unaware that ventilation systems have to cycle the air flow through a return vent? o_O

61 completely wasted years on Earth, learning everything you can about nonsense like ghosts and UFOs, but little about simple physics. 9_9

There are countless ‘How To’ videos and tutorials on YouTube pertaining to creating shadows on a video. So many I didn’t know what to pick from plus there’s so many types of shadows one can create.

The video in the OP has obviously been shopped or retouched. How many of us take a video and then when we play it back do we see the camera focus in on a highlighted area. My phone can’t do that unless I’ve monkeyed with the video later. This part should be the first hint that you’re not looking at the original, creating serious doubt that the rest of video is genuine. My guard went up right away. Would have been more convincing by telling us to observe video at certain time and do it repeatedly but no, the whole effect was ruined by the highlighting. We want it to be true so badly that we completely ignore or are blind to the fact that someone has touched this video before releasing it, even when it’s blatantly obvious. Completely useless as proof of shadow creatures.

This guy may be a security guard but he is or has a friend skilled in photoshopping or creating special effects. At first I thought he was talking to someone who was with him. “Start the banging, slam the door, I’m on my way”. I’ll say it again, video evidence in today’s world is probably the least trustworthy of any type. I don’t know how someone who wants to convince others can actually prove their belief using it, damn near impossible.

It does appear as if the room is right next to an elevator shaft. No idea how high the building is or if it is a tall building to start with. Room seems to be a change locker for workers who then use elevator to go to respective stations. Don’t think they use stairs since that way looked unused. We wouldn’t know if building occupied or elevator in use at higher floors, creating positive to negative air flows within building. They need a better latch

Remember that "neighboring" Brazil has a penchant for slamming doors, as well. Seems to be thing for this hemispheric "down under".

There's a debunk of that Brazil door slamming that claims it was all done with a string. But looking at the original incident I can't detect any string. And the reopening of the door after shutting seems a little too forced to be mere rebounding.
