Melanie and others-
   I agree that is is probably a hoax.
   The video is almost creepy like from a sci-fi or horror film.

   I have to wonder if they celebrate Halloween in Lativia and this is a prank.

But if this is true - could 2009 hold the world record for the number of witnessed falls (not counting showers of course) in one year?
