It is a bug that is flapping its wings 6 times per frame of the video. I have seen this before.

What you're seeing here is what happens when a digital camera's optics are not quite fast enough to conpensate for the speed of a bug's wings nd movement. So within one "Snap" of the video lens so to speak, the bug has traveled over a distance. That entire path becomes the appearance of the object. And since that entire time the wings are flapping it gives it that corkscrew type of appearance.

The angle of the wings relative to the light source and the camera makes it appear brighter and darker. And sometimes the light source itself can make it appear to almost skip. Since even your average table lamp is pulsating, but only at a frequency far faster than your eye can interpret.

You'll see these often in digital still photography. But every now and then they get caught on film. I've caught a few myself.


CC said it better than I could have haha

Working now, THANK YOU

Ahh, yes, the flying fish or whatever you want to call it. It is a bug. I'm no camera expert but it has to do with the frames per second and basically the bug flying very quickly, which makes it look like many bugs connected together. On a regular camera, we could blame this on slow shutter speed.
