Footage caught by hikers out in Brazil has caused a stir after people think they managed to film a couple of 10ft aliens.
Sara Dalete from Brasília was out for the day with her family in Ilha do Mel when she caught the 'creatures' on camera. You can check out the clip here:
The mysterious figures can be seen stood on top of a hill with their arms moving around.
A translated caption shared alongside the clip, reads: “Guys, these are the original videos we made, in the second video of him going down the mountain you can already notice that he really looks like a normal person but taller than the majority.”

Footage of the ‘aliens’ has gone viral on social media where people have questioned what they could be.
One person said: “It's a really strange figure. It has strange arm movements. I believe it. We are not the only inhabitants of this universe.”
Someone else commented: “Looking closely at the images, it’s a real person. It looks like this person had binoculars or a camera. It's a T-shirt tied around his head.”
A third was also sceptical, writing: “How come all these aliens are p**s poor resolution? So we can't see the sticks holding them up?”

And another said: “If I saw an alien I would simply zoom the camera in and take a high resolution picture of it.”
Six-foot-seven-inch footballer Peter Crouch also shared the footage, joking: “We were on a family holiday pls respect our privacy at this time.”
Meanwhile, the government of Paraná State made light of the alleged sighting.
A spokesperson said: “Our summer is from another world. “Even strange beings come here to enjoy our coastline.”

The ‘sighting’ comes just days after a bizarre conspiracy theory broke out about aliens visiting Miami.
Videos shared on social media showing people fleeing the Bayside Marketplace, a shopping mall in downtown Miami on New Year's Day as police and sirens circled the shopping mall.
In a statement, police said they were responding to reports that a group of more than 50 juveniles were fighting in the mall - leading to officers being dispatched 'for crowd control due to the juveniles refusing to leave'.
However that didn’t stop bizarre rumours from spreading online, claiming that the area had been invaded by aliens, with one person saying there were '10ft Aliens/Creatures' which were 'fired at inside and outside Miami Mall'.
Looks like they might have popped over to Brazil to get away from it all, eh?
