This Seems too Bizarre to be Real

[PdH]

I don't know anything about these creatures besides what I learned in grade school. What do you guys think, transformation real or not?

sorry i'm at work and the video is blocked, but if its the clip witht the chameleon on the sun glasses i think its fake, i don't think they can change colors that quick.

Yeah it's fake. My inner child is very disappointed. :(

fake, but still cool looking

Obviously never played with a chameleon. They only change shades to natural colours: greens, brown, gray, etc.

The change is much slower than that, and it is a gradual change all over, not a linear change like in the video.

Finally, they only change colour when they are threatened as a means of defense.

Blame the miseducation on the media :)

I think your inner child deserves a cookie.
