Flashes of light don't create physical deformation.(*)

(*) Well, they can, but not for any practical purposes possibly applicable to this case.

light creates the flash of light - looks like the sun is guilty

Well, I suppose that's one kind of energy beam from space.

We are constantly being bombarded by radiation from space.

That's why I wear a hat.

Contrary to popular belief, the tin foil is optional

But we're finally seeing real progress in fixing this. In the past five months there's been an over 60% reduction in space radiation bombardment in my area.

Strangely, there are those who would argue, though in rather different accents, that it's getting that much worse.

A baseball cap, cowboy hat, or anything else with bill or a brim will do the job, for real harmful radiation from space (I'm talking about solar UV that will cause sunburn, in case there's any doubt. It can be a serious problem for somebody as paleface as I am.)

That's a truly idiotic conclusion to draw. Different flashes at different times and in different places are allowed to have been caused by different mechanisms. The ones this video refers to are clearly reflections off spinning pieces of debris. To suggest this is refuted by things that look different to this having different explanations is about the sort of inane nonsense that's been the staple diet of the truth movement for seventeen years.
