a nice idea, but i don't think it addresses the density issue properly; although the cloak is probably lighter than the special-ops ninja it hides, the cloak isn't made of the ninja, but rather, some uber-polymer

I wasn't talking density, but paleness. Although that may not apply either.

I think BNC, aero_guy and Speaker are right on on this one.
The rest, I fear, are adrift in a sea of confusion of titanic proportions.

I agree with that, but agreeing isn't much fun in itself, right? 
By the way, I still don't get aero_guy's post.

If you got my last reference, you should have gotten aero_guy's hint. They're related - and we're not talking Da Vinci.

Now it seems to me he was talking about DC. In that case I'm not too worried I didn't get it, it's not a gap in education in my opinion.

Yeah, I seriously hate that guy and was a little embarrassed to reference him. Besides, the movie was bunk. Die already!

Perhaps the movie in question did not infested Croatia - at least not to the extent it did other countries.
Demark - your answer is sort of correct. It is just that the intended answer is more specific.

It was a glacier.
But, I vote that your original answe is correct. And, the other answer is just a manifestation of the one and only true answer that you have already guessed.
But, that's just me.
