‘Is that Tinkerbell?’ CCTV footage of bug-like creature sparks rumors, Internet says ‘I knew fairies were real’

The majority of the Internet is convinced this is the beloved character from Peter Pan and she will singlehandedly will save us from the ordeal that 2020 has been

Probably not everybody who installs a security cam at the main door goes through their footage every day, but Twitter user 'Denise' found something groundbreaking in hers. In an odd chain of events, a 10-second clip from the user's security cam has now garnered 2.4 million views after Twitter was able to spot Peter Pan's close friend Tinkerbell in there. The video, with 18,000 retweets and comments, and over 60,000 Likes on Twitter has now prompted viewers to say "I knew fairies were real!"

The clip shows the recording of the user's security camera overlooking two cars parked outside their house at night and all of a sudden something much larger than a normal fly zooms past the screen. The creature returns again, flying at a suspicious speed, looking exactly like a giant grasshopper at first, perhaps, and a closer look reveals what looks exactly like Tinkerbell from Disney's Peter Pan. 

"So we saw this on our camera last night, someone tell what they think it looks like?" posted 'Denise' on Twitter, and soon, others slowed down the video for her. "Here's an excerpt from that surveillance footage (slowed down to 25% speed and digitally enhanced for clarity)," replied another user to 'Denise' and true enough, the video reveals Tinkerbell in all her glory.

"I do believe in fairies, I do, I do," shared another. But one particular fan was sure it was the Peter Pan character and paying a neighborly visit to her family. 

A fourth fan simply quipped how "Tinkerbell on the streets cuz Disneyland laid her a** off." While another couldn't believe their eyes

While some believe Tinkerbell is "just doing some door to door selling," others are more of the opinion of "just leave her alone." The majority of the Internet is convinced this is the beloved consort of Peter Pan from the Disney movies and she singlehandedly will save us from the ordeal that 2020 has been. But for everyone struggling to accept this truly is a fictional Disney character come alive there are others who say it is just a 'bug' in the video.

However, in the words of this one believer who shared an extreme closeup of the flying creature from the clip "but what bug has thick legs?"
