Date:

Another WhatsApp forward is blowing away people’s mind showing cars crashes into nothing. The title says “GhostCrash”

The compilation of horrific clips simply shivers down the spine as it looks so real as if they crashed into something, some supernatural entity which can’t be seen.

FACT CHECK

When a fact check was done of the viral video it revealed that this a masterpiece of video editing where the second vehicle was removed.

This extraordinary edit work was done by an Italian animation/graphics artist Donato Sansone whose name appears at the end of the video

He posted it on 29th May 2018

His work was lauded at a movie festival in Italy

Italian

Programma che inizia con un regalo quasi inaspettato. Un mini corto realizzato da Donato Sansone. Che in questo periodo si
trova a Parigi per realizzare un nuovo cortometraggio, ma ricordando gli amici ha spedito a Fasano il link di questo breve
lavoro intitolato “Ghost Crash”. L’idea consiste nel prendere filmati d’incidenti tra due auto cancellandone una, l’effetto fa
quasi paura. La bassa qualità delle riprese fatte da telecamere di sicurezza viene mantenuta cancellando perfettamente l’altra
vettura. L’improvviso essere sbalzate via delle auto colpite dal nulla è davvero inquietante e inaspettato. Un’altra grande idea
di Donato Sansone che potete vedere qui.

Program that starts with an almost unexpected gift. A mini short made by Donato Sansone. That in this period is in Paris to make a new short film, but remembering friends sent to Fasano the link of this short work entitled “Ghost Crash”. The idea is to take footage of accidents between two cars and delete one, the effect is almost scary. The low quality of the shots made by security cameras is maintained by perfectly erasing the other car. The sudden being thrown off of the cars hit by nothing is really disturbing and unexpected.

Here are some grabs of Real and Fake frames from the viral video:

In the following video from 1 minute 13 seconds shows there indeed was a second car which was removed by the Italian artist:

Surely, its great piece of video editing, but the claims made are surely FAKE.
