People usually install security cameras to deter criminals and protect themselves, but often times they wind up capturing footage of some very strange things. Videos from security cams have shown ghosts, bizarre creatures, alien abductions, UFOs and even a woman giving birth, but what one camera in Mexico caught on film might top them all. The recently released footage from it appears to show a dog transforming into a person.
According to Mexican media reports, the odd occurrence took place in Veracruz, but few details are known about it. The video seems to show a dog running along a fence before turning into a white blur that then transforms into a somewhat transparent running man, which quickly takes shape and becomes more solid. The man then continues to run off-screen as the video ends.
Some believers feel it is a Nagual. In Mesoamerican folklore, a Nagaul is, according to Wikipedia, a human being who can access spiritual power through transformation or deep connection with their animal counterpart. Others who've see the clip are less convinced and suggest the "transformation" is just a camera glitch, while some skeptics think the footage was edited and altered.
As yet, there is no official explanation for what happens in the video.
