The Clown of the UFO Community: Ashton Forbes and His Pathetic Web of Lies
Ashton Forbes has cemented his place as the laughingstock of the UFO community, peddling a circus of lies that would make even the most gullible conspiracy theorist cringe. His latest grift centers on the tragedy of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, a disaster that claimed 239 lives in 2014, which he shamelessly exploits with fake videos and absurd claims of alien teleportation. Forbes isn’t just a fraud—he’s a disgrace, preying on the pain of victims’ families while hawking his fraudulent “free energy” schemes through his sham company, Aether Tech. Let’s tear apart this clown’s house of cards and expose him for the charlatan he is.
Forbes’ crown jewel of deception is a pair of videos he claims show MH370 being zapped out of existence by UFOs. One video, supposedly from a satellite, depicts the plane flying at an impossible speed—below stall at 77 knots, a third of what a Boeing 777-200 needs to stay aloft. The other, allegedly from a drone, shows the same plane rocketing at Mach 2 (2260 km/h), a speed that would shred a commercial jet. These laughable inconsistencies, calculated from the videos’ own coordinates and background, are just the tip of the iceberg. The cloud backdrop? Stolen from Jonas De Ro’s 2012 photos, available on Textures.com, with visible seams where the images were stitched together. The “zap” effect? A cheap 90s-era VFX trick from Pyromania, identified frame-for-frame by debunkers. Forbes’ videos aren’t evidence—they’re a poorly edited sci-fi fantasy, and he’s the hack director.
But Forbes doesn’t stop at bad CGI. He’s spun a narrative of government cover-ups and quantum teleportation, citing “scientists” who, in reality, refute his nonsense. His so-called “Pertinent Evidence” document is a joke, filled with baseless claims that crumble under scrutiny. When confronted with facts—like the plane’s model inconsistencies or the lack of parallax in his “stereoscopic” satellite footage—he ducks and dodges, ignoring arguments he can’t refute. For over a year, he’s sidestepped the speed discrepancy, a glaring 10x difference that debunks both videos in one fell swoop. Even his own supporters can’t muster a defense, because there is none. Forbes isn’t a truth-seeker; he’s a coward hiding behind a keyboard, too scared to face the evidence that exposes his lies.
And then there’s Aether Tech, his “free energy” scam that reeks of fraud. Forbes has set up an LLC, drafted shady contracts, and demanded NDAs for closed-door “demonstrations” of a device that doesn’t exist. Posts on Reddit’s r/AetherTech reveal his tricks: recycled 14-year-old images passed off as new tech, and excuses about “debunkers” ruining his con. This isn’t innovation—it’s a textbook scam, designed to fleece the desperate and the naive. Forbes doesn’t care about truth or progress; he cares about clicks, cash, and the spotlight, no matter who he hurts in the process.
The real tragedy here is the pain Forbes inflicts on MH370’s victims’ families, who have publicly begged him to stop. While researchers work tirelessly to solve aviation’s greatest mystery, Forbes dances on graves for attention, peddling his drivel on platforms like Jimmy Dore’s show, where hosts chase clicks over integrity. His lies aren’t just an insult to the UFO community—they’re a slap in the face to everyone who seeks real answers about MH370. Ashton Forbes isn’t a visionary; he’s a vulture, a clown in a tinfoil hat, and it’s time the world saw him for what he truly is: a pathetic liar who deserves nothing but scorn
