The figure definitely has human features and it appears to be completely naked, with unnaturally long arms. There's also something very disturbing about the way the creature walks.

When the figure realizes that it is being watched, it suddenly stops and turns around. At first glance, this makes it look even thinner and narrower than when previously seen from behind.

Twitter user Ashutosh Gautam, who also shared the video, wrote that the clip was the talk of the town at the moment.

More than 35,000 users clicked on the mysterious footage from his profile alone, and the comments have been rife with disagreement ever since.

Some want to see here the ultimate proof that there are aliens on Earth, others make fun of the "fake". Then there are those who suspect that in the shot is just simply one of a skinny, naked man.
