[Queenyinthehouse]

Project Blue Beam.

[Airbender19]

This was just edited in. Notice how it took a while for the crew to start clapping.

[nanaforiod]

@Airbender19 Well duh...

[GML1982]

feack

[irishamrep]

GEE! maybe you will get "one" more person to watch your crappy CNN....and you could put a dent in the 3X as many watching FNC at any given time! Duh!

[ZX2ManDave]

This was just a bunch of bullshit created by the liberal media. It wasnt a actual hologram. Wolf Blitzer really couldnt see her standing in front of him, had you been in the studio you wouldnt have seen her either.

CNN, Commie News Network.

[utkramer]

lame, though it is more 'star trek' than 'back to the future'.

[jsmallwood2007]

hologram was a hoax..simply 40 cameras and blue screen technology..there was no hologram...watch the discovery channel footage...videos called

"cnn hologram tv first hoax exposed on discovery channel"

[homefry62]

i saw this as it happened on cnn, my jaw dropped

[BWzProductionz]

O-M-G! watch?v=H1LtN00syyY

[BWzProductionz]

OMG! watch?v=H1LtN00syyY

[WKaliber1]

"help us Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're our only hope"

[pikmin3]

omfg this can be used for porn! awesome

[frbe0101]

it not a hologram, its just 3D telepresences, the image is generated by real time processing into the camera's feed: the host can't see a thing. Considering it done in a blue tent using dozens of cameras is really quite crude.

[1bulma1]

repbulicans are so arogant

I love john mccain but his party needs a makeover

I think until the next 4 yrs they should humble themselves and work with the democrats

they crashed and burnt and are still beeing very arogant and silly and inmature

men,I want to spank them so bady - john mccain he is an american hero

last of all I blame bush he spoilt or ruined the repbulicans

tough he did some good too

but gosh repbulicans humble urself and regroup

rite now the world thinks u suck

[FullFrontalCrudity]

it would be great if they spent all this time and money to create this on doing some fucking investigative journalism instead.

no it is not an actual hologram. there's another video on CNN's site that shows how they did it, and it looks like it cost a fortune. and it looks like crap to boot!

[GnosticAtheist]

Ok... Is it an actual hologram or just a cut in film trick? Because if it is a 3D hologram I want that projector NOW!

[dauslamood]

That is MAVERICK CNN lol

I would have walked through her just for fun hahah

[TheMethadoneParty]

this could revolutionize the porn industry!

[tilerwen]

haha!

[gohvaan]

lmao

[drongovids]

Forget the election of Obama, this dodgey B-movie hologram was the real watershed moment of November the 4th.

[myRincon]

....really? i hate television

[DergaDoodle]

l....o....l looks like something Fox news would do

[nevagan]

Look to the Dark Side OB...

[yotafro]

holograms make you look short! There's always a catch.

[kuryamtl]

meh its a gimmick.

[Ryancuasay]

star wars! i wish yoda would show up! :-D 1.21 jw.. funny hahaha!

[jay733]

This would also be cool if the public had something like this, and have a hologram of Barack Obama doing a speech right in your living room :D

[supernuage]

amazing technology

[thetosquire]

She has no feet!!! That's kind of weird :)

[73hd99w]

I knew it! Wolf Blitzer is the emperor!

[ruffzspree]

hahahahaha

[bignjp]

ONE POINT TWENTY ONE JIGGAWATTS!?!!

[DoctorDoubleX]

sauce plox

[Toocold]

Holy shit! That's incredible!

It reminds me of that scene from Star Wars where Leia leave a holographic message in R2D2:

"Help me, Obi-Wan; You're my only hope!"

[chavetto]

Damn you stole my comment! That's the first thing I thought of.

[9thprotocol]

fake shit

[ananoula]

great!

[interista7878]

With this, the releasing of Englands ufo files and the recent sightings in the US...

Hmmmm...

[shawnashotwell]

I didn't know we could do that yet!!! And to see it on CNN first....weird, but cool.

[minizer999]

A - FUCKEN - MAZING!

[tfwitmer]

I want a hologram machine. That was wicked.

[spectrem]

BUT is HE able to see the hologram?

or does it just appear on our screens?

recording the 3d image is easy but how would they project the 3d image?

[ThatPiGuy]

I bet it's the latter, just like how they do weather maps.

[staticoverdub]

"help me obi-wan kenobi... you're my only hope!"

[djlust25]

hahahahaha - i was in fits of laughter when i read ur reply

[zeldamasterX]

lool !

[SmileOnADog]

Does this mean they've joined the dark side of the force?

[TheRevanchist]

Kinda weird. Doesn't seem necessary.

[tealish]

Yes, agreed. But still, kinda cool wasn't it?

[absent11]

Holy shit seems that CNN's holding out on technology from the future wouldn't be surprised if they had all types of other shit

[f1br30p7ix]

LOL I saw this live and it looked awkward.

[mutewitness]

LMAO

[monalisasmiles4you]

Hahahaha wow. Someone misses Star Trek!

[PattyMMelt]

Woah, holy shit dude!

[ferfermas]

when i saw this, i was like wtf..

But that is shit is cool

[polyrhythmic1]

I thought is was cool. Something different. It's one giant leap for media kind! LOL

[jahblazin]

WTH!!

hahaha

[meatwadgunit]

You know CNN has nothing better to do when they start beaming in people with holograms

[momo121212]

hahaha, man good one

[1jazzsinga]

Beam me up Scotty!

I mean ... Wolfie!

[Aristox116]

Could this be more cool

[1jazzsinga]

It could be even more cool if they beamed Bush, Cheny, and Rove to Mars.

[MurasakiYugata]

Never seen anything like this on television? Blitzer needs to watch Quantum Leap.

[beccahday]

awesome. love it.

[cpinill]

this is the dumbest news device ever!!! What are they going to bring in four years? A R2-D2?

[jtilak]

they should have made her wear a pincesss leia costume. that would have been hilarious.

[ViciousGX]

Hologramms!

Cnn is so badass xD

News of the future mofo xD

[Bizzer10]

WTF is up with CNN having technology like

100 years ahead of the rest of the world lol

Help us out CNN!!!

[bluecafe22]

I thought that was completely stupid... Why did they waste their time??

[Heny4563]

Cool!

[crimsong19]

Help me, Wolf Blitzer. You're my only hope.

[AshillaBeige]

"Obee Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope!"

[KruNae]

and what's with these damn touch screens!? This isn't minority report.

[corbaman]

If only TV weathermen had this radical new technology

[TheDude82x]

wow..amazing !!!!

its like star wars loool

[PresidentMcCool]

WTH? This is just to make boring counting seem fun and exciting. I will stay up all night, but it is just counting that is occurring. There is definitely no need for a hologram.

[golguin]

The future!

[TARPY2]

lulz

[tarobomb]

Who approved this? Ted Turner will not be pleased.

[ignorantpom]

Fuck that! We at the BBC, have a touchscreen!

[siegristrm]

I think its more a star trek than star wars thing. And the audience did react when she was beamed in, so I think he can actually see her.

[neverlookback75]

I feel they need to be punched.

[CaramelAnt]

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! You think this is the real Quaid?

It is.

[Mickster6d6]

at least it wasn't Palpatine...

[BionicleRaider]

[fiddlerthh]

[randomvidwatcher]

AWESOMEEEE

[TiJayEve]

HAHA!!! Hell yeah! I freaked out a bit when I saw it a few minutes ago, lol

[Socksee]

very cool

[swaffty]

wow and i thought FOX news was dumb

[Nilanius]

actually FOX news is dumb. This is a station having fun. They never bashed either candidate. FOX though bashed Obama and his followers up down, left right and in all directions. So I say let cnn have their fun.

[xGirlPlay]

Fox news is the worst.

[xGirlPlay]

LOL yeah I was like, WTF?! This isn't new, even Star Wars looks better than this.

[Bizzer10]

Lmao...

i thought it was pretty cool

[imileamsi]

CNN... Stick to the magic TV wall.

[WKaliber1]

"help us Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're our only hope"

[Bizzer10]

aww, it woulve been awesome if she said that

[carmie1818]

They had a tough time figuring out the technology in time. Apparently an old janitor wearing a brown cloak, just walked right in, touched the holographic imagery unit, and presto.

[MakBot]

LULZ SAVE ME OBI-WAN

[edAVP1138]

I swear to God, when I saw this I was thinking, this shit is straight out of STAR WARS!!!!!!

[7tCinema]

They should have totally done the shimmering Star Wars hologram effect

[DanerC07]

Haha I saw this live and just had to laugh. Its pretty cool but im sure its not an actual hologram or anything

[imnodog]

yeah, I'm thinking the same thing

[WKaliber1]

"we need you Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're out only hope"

[luchamini]

WKaliber1, even with the typo I gotta thumbs-up ya because that was the first thing that popped in my head!

[TheShizzlest]

You gotta be shitting me.

[pokerslut530]

So is this a REAL hologram that even Wolf himself can literally see in front of his face or is it just really bad video editing?? :)

[benjykenjy]

yeah that's what i want to know

[parker2334]

Just bad video editing.

[agenstuall85]

IM SURE NOT

[SCOOBERT667]

WOW cnn is just a showoff!

[tyler7878]

THATS INVENTED?

[mickeh93]

lol this was like an hour ago? i liked it :P

[voyeurdug]

I miss the cinnamon-buns hairdo, and R2D2.

[dafttool]

The rebel alliance is gathering up it's forces to attack the Death Star.

[hollyhoodjoe123]

Is this needed to report an election?

This is the type of stuff that makes our news media so easy to mock.

[dlacc187]

lmfao

[Nilanius]

whew technology is showing it's potential. Perhaps the technological future we all come to know from sci fi shows and movies will come with the change this election shall bring.

[FaxEdge]

lol

[lowsparks2008]

ha ha amazing!
