I looked around and then \u2013 bam \u2013 I saw like ten of the same guy, all standing next to each other.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt first I thought he had 10 twins! It was terrifying.\u201d Manhattan Insider sent the video to specialists who confirmed its apparent authenticity.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>After checking the CCTV and discovering the phenomenon had been recorded, Mr Kalia contacted the police. \u201cBut twenty minutes later these guys show up in suits, flashing badges from the FBC. They said they were authorized to seize the video. I didn\u2019t want to put up a fight. They looked like they meant business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the FBC\u2019s public communications, only buildings and structures are vulnerable to the phenomenon. Yet the leaked video clearly shows humans can be affected.<\/p>\n<p>When asked to comment on the apparent disparity, the FBC said: \u201cWe assure members of the public that \u2018patterning\u2019 does not affect humans. The footage you have seen has been distorted by a recent gas leak. If however, you are in doubt on how to respond to the patterning phenomenon or you would like any more information, please contact the FBC.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the time of publishing, unconfirmed reports seem to suggest that the patterning phenomena may be spreading. One Reddit user recently claimed that when driving home from work he or she had to \u2018slam on the brakes\u2019 because the highway had turned \u201890 degrees upwards\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>We will update readers <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"link-external\" href=\"https:\/\/controlgame.com\/en?utm_source=publishercollective&amp;utm_medium=custom&amp;utm_campaign=breach&amp;utm_content=custom-0&amp;utm_term=us-goatherd&amp;dclid=CMSQnIKi_ZYDFWwq-wMdqkQCrw&amp;gad_source=7&amp;gad_campaignid=24255806567\">as soon as more information becomes available<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A video has been leaked online by an anonymous source at the FBC, the Federal Bureau of Control,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":777589,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[59,86,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-777588","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-gb","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/777588","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=777588"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/777588\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/777589"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=777588"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=777588"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=777588"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
