[quote:Anonymous Coward 618837:MV8yNDY5OTUyXzQyNTg2MDQ4XzFDNkNBQzY3] I don't see anything strange in OP's video. This is how things look under a simple microscope. It should be obvious to everyone that there is microscopic debris everywhere outdoors (and indoors as well). Snowfall on the ground is certainly not some kind of 100% H2O wonderland, no matter if it's "the top layer" or not. That's a fantasy OP seems to have. There's debris from everything everywhere... plants, animals, dirt, etc. That some of that debris may be thin and long isn't a surprise. One thing I'm fairly certain of is that OP is not going to take this supposedly ground-breaking sample to a lab for official findings. It's better for the fantasy to keep it as "unknown", because unknown sounds all spooky and conspiracy-like. That's why it's merely posted on Youtube where dumbfounded reactions to the technology of microscopes can keep the fantasy going. Besides, if any of your conspiracy theories were true, then it's unlikely you'd need to open your mouth and eat snow to get infected by whatever you think is out there. If it was so small and so abundant, then you already would be. You breath in and consume environmental debris all the time, every day. Even right now as you read this you're breathing in house mold spores, which are everywhere (even in air filtered homes). What did you think is in boogers? You have environmental debris in your noise right now just sitting there, but you're worried about snow not being 100% pure water? In before the claims that I'm a disinfo agent or whatever other fantastical nonsense is in store for me for typing out a scientifically rational response. Woo microscopes... things so small and neat looking, must be conspiracy hocus pocus. *rolls eyes* PS: cleansing programs are usually scams. it's kind of sad to see people afraid of a conspiracy in turn blindly put anything some random person says to into their body. think about how unintelligent that is [/quote]
Original Message
This is a piece of sleet that i had scraped from the very top of the ice pile on my BBQ pit cover...this piece had no other contact with anything but the ice beneith it. The slide i used was brand new and cleaned prior to placing the sample on it. What you in the beggining see are air bubbles from the ice melting on the slide... Jump to 1:46 and 3:00 if you want to see why i dont open my mouth for snow or rain from the sky! REMEMBER, THIS IS A PIECE OF SLEET ABOUT THE SIZE OF A PIN TIP.
