i saw this ww2 clip on liveleak...

its just the usual ww2 reel stuff - but at about 10:16 - the clip goes blurry, and just after youve seen men trying to put a fire out - this random image...only for a second...appears...how haunting is that...?

anyways - just wondering if anyone knows anything about it? have you seen it before? im curious? where is she from? is she part of the reel that just got mixed in by mistake or taped over?

it didnt look all that haunting to me, it just looked like it may be been recorded on by accident or they stopped recording momentarily and ff then resumed recording without realising

Can't believe I wasted 10 minutes of my life waiting for that..... not in the least bit haunting.

Looks like they transferred the recording from it's original format onto a newer more stable platform (circa late 60s) and that the tape they were using had been used before.
All film tapes of that type and era when used for newsreels etc had a time limit (even today I think) that's why ou get a black dot in the top right hand corner to tell the operator to change tapes.
It looks to me like there's a slight gap between the changeover, the quality of the image is so superior to the rest of the footage makes it appear to me to be a later addition/accident.

A few years ago, when we all used VHS, I had tapes which had been used over and over again and 'blips' like this, where an image appears just for a few frames, happened all the time. You tape programme A. A few days later you've finished with programme A and tape programme B over the top of it, but Prog B isn't quite as long. You decide to keep prog B and want to tape Prog C immediately after prog B but somehow there's a tiny gap where a few frames of prog A 'shows through', because you didn't position the tape quite accurately enough. I'm sure that's what happened here.
