Face Seen In Clouds (VIDEO)

This YouTube clip could become the new face of viral cloud videos.

The cameraman filming a storm in Canada's Grand Falls in New Brunswick realizes that a cloud has formed into a familiar shape.

"A face!" he exclaims. "Holy frig!"

The Sun spotted the video, which was also featured on YouTube Trends.

At the time of this report, the clip has already amassed more than 176,000 views since being uploaded August 1st.

Humorous YouTube comments include, "*James Earl Jones' voice* SIMBAAA" and "Lord Voldemord comming!!! (sic)"

Earlier this year, New Yorkers snapped photos of rare "mammatus" clouds turning the sky orange, and a duo in Australia shared footage from a windowless, wall-less airplane while soaring through clouds.

If it were a still photo, I'd be declaring "Photoshop" but that was pretty cool. You can see the face shape changing and growing with the wind.

Once on a road trip we were alongside a cloud that looked just like the Enterprise from Star Trek for several minutes.

It's called "pareidolia", and it's extraordinarily common. It's due to our tendency to see human agency in everything, and is directly linked with the theistic delusion.

I thought it was fake, but today I was walking to my backyard and I saw a face in the clouds. I got my video camera and saw 11 faces in just over four minutes. So, if it's fake it was a waste of time. If you want to see a comparison of my video and this one search for: the pumpkin face in cloud

There were several faces. The first was Dobby oddly enough. Clouds form amazing patterns that are sometimes really apparent in a photograph. It's fun stuff.

This is a wall cloud, a precursor to tornado type vortexes. Nothing more. I've seen wall clouds do amazing convolutions that are downright scary.

That looks like the profile of Alfred Hitchcock.
