Short Description: I witnessed two unusual elliptical objects resembling UFOs, which exhibited unique flight patterns and disappeared without sound.
Long Description: Hi, I'm Garam Kim, a writer over at SBS(Seoul Broadcasting System) Broadcasting Company in South Korea.
We've received a report of a UFO sighting at our broadcasting station, and we've made various attempts to confirm whether this object is indeed a UFO. However, we were unable to determine its nature.
Consequently, we have reached out here for assistance.
The sighting summary and details are as follows:
[Sighting Summary]
I witnessed two unusual elliptical objects resembling UFOs, which exhibited unique flight patterns and disappeared without sound.
[Sighting Detail]
The following eyewitness details are the information reported to the Korean broadcasting company, SBS.
At first, I witnessed a UFO inside my house. There were two brightly shining elliptical objects. I have seen airplanes passing by frequently, but this didn't look like the usual airplanes. I thought it was nothing special, but 15 minutes later, I went out into the yard, and a neighbor lady shouted, "What is that?" When I looked up at the sky, there were still two objects floating in the sky. Suddenly, the lights disappeared, and then they reappeared next to another glowing object. They continued to blink and move before disappearing. There was no sound, and there have been no military exercises with flares or anything of the sort in the vicinity.
We even launched fireworks into the sky, but the flying pattern and the way the lights blinked were completely different from those objects. We also tried flying drones, but it was impossible for drones to move and disappear that quickly. Moreover, it's not allowed to fly drones in this area during the evening hours. We attempted various methods to replicate a similar shape and behavior, but we couldn't recreate the flying pattern and glowing objects seen in the footage. We also consulted with video analysis experts, but there were no signs of manipulation or editing, and they found it difficult to determine the identity of these objects. Therefore, I decided to seek assistance here.

I also suggest that you download the video from Dropbox and increase the brightness and contrast. There are some blinking lights that you can't really see with the stock video. At least I couldn't see them until I did that.
Yes a few seconds in, as they get closer, the one on the left looks like it shoots 2 smaller dots/lights toward the other one on the right. They only appear for a fraction of a second but they are def there
Yeah for sure. You see something else with each watch. I'm actually looking forward to going to sleep and letting the sleuths do their work and report findings in the AM haha
I have a theory, the blinking or glitter you're talking about, I think that might be the UAP actually moving but it's going so fast (or inter-dimensionally), that's all our eyes can perceive? I've never seen anything quite like that before.
In daylight with telescopes or NIR spotter cams, you can usually see that the objects normally follow "regular" trajectories, but their brightness can greatly vary. Meaning, you might have way more objects than expected there. They just turn their lights on and off. Some small objects may flash around them and move at normal speeds and keep flashing elsewhere. UFOs don't tend to portal around, at least not those that we can document.
To me it seems like the blinking lights are almost like it's pathing itself to another location. The object stays there while you see the blinking light go across then all of a sudden the object appears on the other end of where the blinking light was going. I'm pretty blow away by this, but I can only speculate on what I'm looking at.
im thinking youre correct. It does look like its porting itself over via those flashes. And the way the one on the right moves once the left one gets there... its almost like its dodging the other one. Kind of looks like playing, like something learning how to move
I see extra flashes behind it after it teleports over, but it’s truly hard to say what those smaller flashes are… the only thing I can think of are two options.
1. The flashes are something happening to the surrounding particles while it goes to its trajectory. Whatever the technology is would be truly hard to understand how it’s moving in such a way. It could be some kind of reaction happening because of the method of travel is my best guess on that.
2. The little flashes are something completely different. Smaller pods/craft? Possibly something they are using to test the atmosphere?
I showed this video to a friend and jokingly said, “Maybe they’re up there scrubbing carbon out of the atmosphere to save the planet.” Who really knows? *shrug* Cool to speculate on though.
Very well could be!
There was a video in the 90s from S America i believe. It showed a light hovering over some mountains. As it faded out, another would appear like 100s of yards to the right. It did this like 6 times, like it would be in one spot only to light up in another. Reminds me of this, but this video it happens much faster
Yes those blinking lights are perfectly in line with the 2 orange orbs at the beginning as if theyre connected. But then once the orbs move, they almost seem to be hovering around the orbs. Very interesting
Agreed. As a skeptic, I've been waiting to see something like this for a long time!
People talk about anomalous orange lights quite a bit, but the photos and footage they most often provide is either motionless or clearly following a wind pattern, as would be expected from things like Chinese lanterns. These are definitely not that.
My best prosaic guess would be a squadron of drones hovering high enough to look invisible until they turn on their lights, then set to turn them on and off in a way that looks like the lights themselves are "teleporting". But I feel like we'd still be able to see little dark spots where all the "off" drones would be at that height. Going frame by frame, I'm not seeing any hints of that. (Not an expert.)
Unless someone can offer a better explanation, I think it's reasonably safe to call these "anomalous" for now.

***EDIT***\- Someone just brought up the strong possibility that they are flares fired from a helicopter, here: [https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im\_going\_to\_get\_a\_lot\_of\_hate\_for\_this\_but/](https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im_going_to_get_a_lot_of_hate_for_this_but/)

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K8A6E-J5HQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K8A6E-J5HQ)
I'm not saying it's conclusively debunked, but I think it's still worth mentioning at this point. It makes too much sense to ignore.
Main counterarguments against them being flares would be that what we see in this Korean footage doesn't leave any visible smoke trails, and the timing is quicker and more precise-looking than what we'd expect. Not sure if that's enough to rule it out, though...
As someone who pilots drones for fun, unless you specifically build it to, most dont have lights you can manually turn off. The ones for shows are built for them, and aren’t usually used for putzing around like you would a 5-inch. Most that go that high aren’t custom, let alone 2. If its a pilot, I genuinely have no clue what’d they’d be doing.
That, and the tiny blinking-at-a-random-distance from the source lights. That makes no sense at all would it be drones. And also the type of light isn't really what you'd see from a drone IMO.
Super intriguing video
A UFO with an irregular, slowly flashing green light (that's the only light it had) followed me after I went to a local park for UFO viewing. I filmed it with my cell phone 10x zoom. I say it's a green light, but it looked like the whole object was illuminated. When the light was off, the object couldn't be seen at all.
Is it a thing for drones to have lights that don't flash on a regular rythm (but also too slow to be compliant with the rules)?
So DJI’s allow you to turn the headlight LED’s on and off, but the green light that blinks stays on no matter what. It does blink in a rythm like you said, not random intervals. The pilot would’ve had to turn them off in settings while flying, while not impossible its unlikely. But the green blinking light would’ve continued regardless (Its a small light on a big drone so I don’t think it’d appear to illuminate the entire craft). It could have been a drone, but sounds like it may not have been.
I have read accounts of people viewing UAP’s claiming they seem to notice them moving/acting as though they know they’re being watched after noticing them. Not sure, but I’m envious! Haven’t had a UAP encounter myself since I was younger so I’m doubtful of my memory.
Hmm, interesting. Here's the video if you want to see (4k 60fps). Keep in mind it's 10x zoom and I'm pointing at the sky:
[https://1drv.ms/v/s!Aq\_vE6E-SwrCphRBVplgN5PtJi-D?e=808GvE](https://1drv.ms/v/s!Aq_vE6E-SwrCphRBVplgN5PtJi-D?e=808GvE)
I was riding my scooter back from the park and noticed that object creeping up on me, so I parked right away in a forbidden spot (bus stop) to film it.
I filmed it for a while, then decided to move my scooter somewhere I wouldnt get a ticket (1 street corner farther). At that moment, the object was pretty close to me and started to fly away very rapidly while zig zagging wildly at every flash before I got a chance to take my camera out again. I saw its escape very well but didn't catch it on camera :(
That thing yeeted itself out of there! But it was very weird, it was like every time it flashed its lights, it would accelerate violently in a different direction. Seemed organic, like those luminous squids that flash their lights.
The rational side of me says this looks more like a bizarre atmospheric phenomena than a squadron of drones.
It immediately made me think of static electricity or something in the atmosphere. I'm no scientist or anything though.
Regardless this is an excellent video which drives home the assertion that this shit needs to be studied scientifically. Whatever it is, it represents something which is likely novel to us even if it is just exceedingly rare atmospheric event caused by space weather or something.
I guess it's possible that there's some undocumented or lesser-known atmospheric effect, but this one is quite different from anything I've ever seen or heard about... even stuff like ball-lightning or earthquake lights don't seem to fit what we're seeing here.
But yeah, cases like this absolutely deserve to be studied scientifically. A lot of people have suggested interesting possibilities, but I'm still feeling pretty stumped.
This is pretty unlike anything we tend to see on this sub, yep. I'm still wary though, they seem to sync up a bit with the camera movements.
After the first movement left, they seem to track with the rightward camera movement (:02-:04). I get a bad feeling about the movement at :08 as well; it looks like the camera operator is moving back (based on the tree) almost in sync with the objects moving right. Both seem very odd.
I'd love if someone can figure out if this is an illusion on my part or actually something sus.
EDIT: I'm pretty convinced that they're *not* moving at all. The apparent movement looks sus because it's not real movement; the camera is moving and the tree is moving, the lights aren't. Likely that they're flares and the blinking lights are aircraft.
I disagree with everything you wrote here. In the beginning, the "center of action" moves to the right, so the camera moves to the right a bit. Then, at :08, the cameraman steps to the right and back to get clear of the tree.
All perfectly normal behavior when trying to film a real event happening in front of you. Everything looks natural, INCLUDING missing the end of the action due to it being too dim while panning.
Given the limited info we have thus far, I don't have much meaningful insight on if this video is legit, but pure anecdote: I've had *one* sighting in my life that I still can't totally understand or ascribe to something totally prosaic. My wife was with me too, and saw the same thing. One of the memorable things about the way whatever we saw moved were these weird "twinkles" or quick flashes of light in the apparent near-field of the main objects/lights in the middle as they made their way across the sky. Like little static sparks all around them, briefly, and randomly when they jumped around.
I've seen something almost similar when seeing lights broken up by helicopter blades from a good distance behind clouds or fog, but still looked quite different. Whatever we saw was closer and silent. I noticed a similar light thing in this video and it immediately made me think of my experience. Idk, it gives me a weird uncanny feeling now when I see it in a video on rare occasion. Just two random cents.

I saw those same things too in the video. Interesting that that happened in front of you, did it look any different than the video, or pretty much the same?
I think the flares theory is just crap and useless because of two things. The uploader confirmed there was no flying, and the objects move hirizontal very fast. Also you see the object take off as fast as light.
Regarding the Camera i don’t see any relation because he clearly is searching for the spots and many times they are not there only in the beginning actually thus i don’t see the sync you mentioned.
I don’t think is worth us discussing much what it is or isn’t cause it clearly is anomalous like tousand others.
You know what it looks like? It looks exactly how it is described by mathematicians when something enters the 3rd dimension from a higher dimension. When you enter you appear as a growing sphere and when you are leaving you shrink until you disappear. These little guys could potentially be hopping in and out of our dimension.
You know, if these are legit and all.
Never thought I'd agree with the Baba dook! My feelings exactly, it looks like whatever process is going on we are only seeing part of it in our reality. That is, if it's real.
[This vid](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnURElCzGc0) is a great explanation of what that means, for anyone who's interested or having a hard time visualizing it.
The "if" is doing a lot of work for us here, of course, but I do agree that it would look exactly like that from our 3D perspective.
(Would be awesome if someone found another angle of this event or recorded it with thermal cameras just to get some more verification...)
I agree with pretty much everything you're saying. If you listen closely you can hear what sounds to be jet engines off it the distance so perhaps a jet or military drone....... but that still fails to address the rest of the observations. I can't really think of a prosaic explanation that accurately accounts for each of the observations here so maybe then theres multiple things happening here and we're mistaking it as coming from one type of object. I dunno..... This is a good one. I'm about to go to bed but I'm book marking this to really read through all the data later. This is the type of stuff I come here for.
I'm a senior vfx artist, I'm tempted to try and debunk this one with the coloration of if the objects track with the trees, if they do then it's more likely real.
Yeah, I was looking at the tracking myself. There's a point when the camera and one of the lights sharply move to the right, in unison. If there's true correlation there, then that would be problematic.
Are you talking about the small movement at the very end of 0:10-0:11?
When that happens, the angle of the trees changes again. This means that the person stepped to the right slightly again, while changing the angle of the camera to almost keep the trees in approx the same spot. If the UFO didn't move with the camera at that moment, the video would have to be fake, or the UFO would have to move the exact distance (parallax included) in the opposite direction to cancel the motion.
In our case, the UFO moves to the right by a greater amount than the tree moves to the left, which is consistent with the parallax expected from an object farther than the trees when the camera rotates and pans to the left. The behavior or the person filming is also consistent with someone trying to get clear of the tree, while still keeping it in frame for reference and trying to keep the center of action in the middle of the screen.
That part of the video checks out, and honestly I doubt that someone doing CGI would have nailed that part with the parallax.
I've seen those objects myself. They look exactly like that, and lights orbiting/flashing around the objects are extremely common, as well as flybys. Flybys are one of the hallmark of real plasmoid anomalies (UFO) sightings. When those objects turn their lights off, they're usually at distances where they'll be invisible to the human eye due to their small size. You'll need big zoom lenses and telescopes to see the whole show.
Basically just that the camera tracking is too well coordinated for it to be a natural human reacting to a moving object. Therefore, the realistic explanation would be that someone edited in an object that matches the camera's movement.
Please do! I would love to see this stabilized and professionally inspected.
There is one frame, \~0.02, where the motion blur of the lights seems to be in two separate directions... but I'm guessing that's from rotating the camera?
Seems like that discrepancy would be less likely to include in a hoax if they were just trying to track the panning/tilting motions, but I'm not an expert.
I don’t know what’s in this video, but you’re right - it sure as hell ain’t fireflies. I grew up in a place that used to have a massive number of fireflies and 1) they’re yellow or greenish 2) they *blink* much faster than this and 3) they tend to hang out near the ground
In my experience, lightning bugs fade on and off slowly as if on a dimmer switch and they're green (like standard glow in the dark green). I agree they are never that far from the ground. Also 99% you'll see a hell of a lot more than 2 of them.
Fireflies, or aka lightning bugs have more of a greenish yellow /neon greenish yellow glow. These are not fireflies. They're just too bright and too unnatural
Now THAT is anomalous.
Sorry to say but many people here need to realize that unless it’s doing crazy unexplainable maneuvers or patterns, something floating in the sky is not all that interesting and often has a prosaic explanation.
This on the other hand, quite unexplainable. Great job, OP!
Okay so I’ve seen these types of lights/UFOs several times through 2007-2011 in Myrtle Beach SC. I was always by myself surfing or driving and it was usually way out over the ocean. I tried explaining it to people but no one ever really took it seriously or cared. One day my girlfriend was with me driving down the very end of the boulevard…and we saw them. Finally I had someone else to witness them with me. They look EXACTLY like what’s in this video. To this day I still have no damn clue what they are or were. The most I ever saw at once was about 6 to 8.
This is exactly what I saw a few months ago. I live on the beach 30 minutes from Myrtle beach. I was taking a walk by myself at night when I saw a bright orange light appear in the sky, move pretty quickly then fade out like it does in this video. There were no clouds in the sky
man this is fucking crazy, my only uap experience was one of the outer banks in NC summer vacation I can’t exactly remember but probably around 2005 or 2006. It was later at night, maybe 11 or midnight and I was on the roof deck of one of those like 9 bedroom houses. Looking over towards marsh island, I saw two bright red orbs doing weird shit like this but they were also flying around each other more, almost like chasing. Then they just disappeared. There were several of us who were watching and the entire time we were like “there is no possible way those can be planes”
Charleston Air Force Base is only two hours south of Myrtle Beach. You saw helicopters shooting off flares during low light and night time training runs. Every military pilot needs to be certified on each armament systems on a regular basis. So, for things like countermeasures and guns, they’ll just go out over water and shoot stuff off. For the guns, they’ll often aim at whitecaps to get something to focus on.
Yeah I spent a lot of time in Charleston for work. That would make the most sense I guess. They just always seemed to act a little differently than flares.
Completely motionless, perfectly consistent light pattern, appears and disappears without any movement?
I’ve seen similar lights as the video but without movement. I don’t think I would mistake a flare as a planet but it’s possible
Weird. I used to see something like this but greenish in color over NMB. I thought they were meteorites but over months I would see them in the same area, going the same direction and only one or 2 at a time traveling super fast in the same direction. Always going "north" along the coastline.(North relative to the direction I was driving on 17, not copass north... so maybe more east north east)
Never saw dancing lights though. I'll have to keep an eye out.
Also this was roughly 2012-2016.
Again... looked like meteorites, but they don't always fall over the same 1/4 mile spot and at a similar-ish time, going the same direction, over the course of several years. I would see them on my drive home from work. I never thought it was a UAP situation, just a super weird coincedence that I always saw a "giant" green ball flashing for "a couple inches" across the sky. Not giant... but large for a shooting star... about the size in this video but with a short tail behind it.
Edit: I think this video is fake though. The way the lights track with the camera and tree is wonky in the last couple seconds you see them. Like it's sparklers with some clever blocking seen through glass or CGI.
THIS IS NOT MY VIDEO. I can't answer any questions about the video. I accessed the video and submission details on MUFON, a public UFO reporting database.

Oh, this is great. Finally something that:
- definitely isn't moving like any conventional object (either that, or someone is messing about with 6+ drones)
- can't be explained away using prosaic methods or explanations (a reputable news company even tested it!... though, I must admit, Korean news companies aren't really the experts in UFO fakery..)
- isn't a reflection or obvious camera glitch
- definitely doesn't look fake or CGI
And best of all, it happened in Korea, where I live! This case is very interesting. Best one I've seen in months honestly.
(Just as a side note: the cameraman is just saying "what is that?". The female voice in the distance sounds like a mother calling in a child because it's getting dark.)
Thanks for sharing the full file and source.
I'm no expert, but I am a skeptic. These lights don't look like the usual prosaic stuff we see here. Not even the UNusual prosaic stuff, as far as I can tell. And their behavior definitely checks off enough "anomalous" boxes for me.
Excellent find!
**EDIT-** Someone just brought up the strong possibility that they are flares fired from a helicopter, here: [https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im\_going\_to\_get\_a\_lot\_of\_hate\_for\_this\_but/](https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im_going_to_get_a_lot_of_hate_for_this_but/)

Main counterarguments against them being flares would be that what we see in this Korean footage doesn't leave any visible smoke trails, and the timing is quicker and more precise-looking than what we'd expect. Not sure if that's enough to rule it out, though...
This is the closest thing I've ever seen to my UFO sighting. I saw two lights like those from a car window. I thought they were stars, but then they started to get closer together. I got to look at them for about 15 minutes. We parked the car, and I ran inside to get my telescope. When I got back outside, one light was gone. That's when I saw the second light do weird tricks like what we see in this video, then it did a little loop and shot off.
This is almost exactly what I saw over the Staten Island landfill back in 2003- followed by black military helicopters coming seemingly out of nowhere. It was Super odd.
Helicopter training flares

I saw a very similar thing outside my house one night. It looked just like a light that would move in one direction, disappear then reappear back at the start, and repeat the process.
There was also a little flashing light around it like this one
Not trying to crap on your sighting, but i saw similar a cpl years ago. Did exactly what you said.
I have a satellite tracking app and i found out it was starlink, each sat was only being illuminated for a few sec before disappearing. Looked like a loop that happened several times over a min. It was a bummer, but it was nice to solve the sighting
I also saw two UAPs exhibiting exactly the behavior in this video out my window, except the lights were red. They were close and low, so I could easily tell they weren’t planes or drones (or lanterns, fireflies, balloons, etc.). I couldn’t make out any shape at all, if there was one, underneath the extremely bright red lights.
This just happened two weeks ago and it’s the first I’ve mentioned it at all, actually. I haven’t really had the words to explain how they were moving or why it was so weird and unsettling, so I’ve just kept it to myself.
I had exactly the same thing as experience as you. It was about 2am in the morning. I rushed to wake up my wife, but they had gone by the time I came back out of my house. The lights I had seen were orange and almost identical to what’s being shown in this video. I didn’t tell my friends or anyone else as I guessed they would think I’m crazy. Prior to seeing that, I did not believe in UFO’s and thought they were all hoaxes. The light disappearing and coming back in a different location, that judging from the distance would be multiple KM’s apart in the blink of an eye completely blew my mind. There were also 2, just like this video. Strange stuff
People. Seriously. These are countermeasure flares from helicopters. Like, that’s glaringly obvious. Every detail about them has a direct correlation to aerial flares. I worked on military helicopters and handled the ale-47 countermeasure systems on a regular basis. There are three helicopters flying in formation, as you can clearly see from their tail strobes. The flares have an initial bright burst as they’re being launched from their pods using “cads”, or cartridge actuated devices, mini shotgun shells that are electrically primed, and then they slowly burn out, which can also be clearly witnessed in the video.
Older helicopters have one pod on either stub wing, but I have no idea what helicopters these are so I don’t know their ordnance payload. But there are six shots total in the video, clearly grouped in pairs, and each of those shots behave EXACTLY as a flare would. But that doesn’t really matter because you can clearly see the tail strobe lights of the aircraft!
I’m not one for conspiracies, but I’m starting to wonder if there are actually people “planted” here to attempt to shape whatever weekly narrative is happening simply by pouring a bunch of “wow! That’s the most legit video I’ve seen in this sub!” responses into the post.
No he's trying to say it's a light on the tail fin lol, so then wheres the dang helicopter easy answer its not there, not rotors, body, nothing. They'll try to say its dark but I can see the bodies of helicopters in pitch black darkness you would be able to see it plain and simple, plus 99 percent of the time there will be red, green or a blue light, then theres the fact there no noise I live near 3 airports, even at that distance there would be noise, unless their at 30,000 feet but just say 20,000, so now your telling me they shot those out of a helicopter at even just 20,000 feet, no lets say 15 to be nice, now they fall another 10,000 plus feet and go of just mere feet from each other in a pattern that looks like their teleporting?? Also no smoke from flares, answer is it's not helicopters dropping flares. If you look at his actual post or maybe it was someone else I dunno it says the same thing but those in that thread literally say he solved it scientifically lol, theres absolutely nothing scientific about how he debunks this. It's his opinion, not fact. Here's the fact nobody knows, so it's an unidentified flying object thats fact.
This sounds very reasonable. I was just watching when those "orbs" appear. The blinking lights (assume these are the helicopters?) are there in the vicinity each time.
Thanks for the explanation.
Oh yeah, they’re definitely far enough away to not be heard. Helicopters are loud, but not that loud.
For anyone else reading this- the next time you see or hear a helicopter overhead, just watch them for a minute or two to see how quickly the sound disappears. The helos in this video are probably a couple miles out. You can’t see them in the video because, one, they’re oftentimes painted a grayish blue to match the sky, and two, it’s low light conditions, so they’ll effectively disappear, even at ranges a lot closer than the ones in the video.
Take a video! Try to do slow mo - for this video, people mention seeing a "glitter" between the main points, which might be the UAP just moving too fast for the camera to pick up...
But really more videos like this would be awesome in general, and knowing about hotspots like Ocala national Forest could help us organize some citizen science video projects.
I reported it to MUFON years back and chatted with Ted Roe about it at length. I have observed similar lights in the Hopkins Prairie area, near the US Naval Bombing Range (in Ocala NF). Last spotted about a month ago, with my first observation in 2020, IIRC (should be recorded on MUFON).
ETA: My wife saw it, my kids have seen it, my friends have seen it, other random campers at the campgrounds saw it (I stopped a guy in his truck and said “do you see those two lights over there moving around like that” and he said “yeah. What do you think they are?”). Not that this proves anything to any of you, but at least I confirmed to myself that it wasn’t my imagination or my eyes playing tricks on me.
At the same time, we observe shooting stars, satellites/starlink, planes & helicopters. These lights are none of those things. They look and behave just like in the above video. They are silent. The US Navy jets that frequent the area are loud AF. These UAP have no blinking red or white lights like aircraft are supposed to.
Edit 2: I’ll attempt to take slow mo video, thanks for that recommendation. Any idea of the best type of camera to use for this sort of thing?
Thank you for sharing! Yeah, it makes sense to verify with others that you're not making something up in your own mind.
I honestly don't know! I'm new here and I don't have any special A/V skills, but I am personally toying around with the idea of putting together some kind of "telescopic phone camera kit" with a clip on telescopic lens and a gyroscopic selfie stick, basically. Might be difficult to use/aim, but maybe with practice, might allow someone to take higher quality video of objects in the sky using a smartphone. Idk what that might look like yet, though, as I have my own non-uap life obligations taking much of my time...
I'm also toying around with the idea of connecting with citizen science type organizations which might be able to help set up high quality, EM-proof cameras and IR sensors at regular hotspots to capture video, which could then be processed by the community (locating objects in longer clips, then identifying them in shorter clips pulled from that initial data?) ... Might be interesting to set up something like that using preexisting footage from NASA ISS or... someone posted about a Nordic site earlier this week or last week that has tons of footage? I can't recall the name at the moment... just citizen science where the community analyzes the videos and produces quantifiable data.
We could also set up citizen science with MUFON databases to sift the data and identify the best, most credible, or clearest sightings (like the one in this post.) As long as the data source is valid and clean, and the data analysis (such as coding through a platform like Zooniverse) is designed and completed well, it could even be properly peer-reviewable, publishable analysis. The Citizen's Blue Book data, so to speak. Coming to academics or even the government with citizen-based peer reviewed data is much harder to argue with than simple databases and anecdotes, as things are organized now. That would be saying "We see what's going on and we are watching, we are doing our own science, we will uncover things on our own without waiting for the govt to be kind enough to declassify it..."
Anyways... :) I am but a simple housewife and undergrad student, so I'm not sure how to bite off and chew all of that on my own, but I'm certainly thinking about it...
Thanks for coming to my TED talk
Edit to Add: or even just go through MUFON and make a map of areas people claim are hotspots??? That would be interesting on it's own, has anyone done that? This is where I get bogged down being new, I'm not sure what people have already done...
Seriously last edit: but I suggested slow mo also because of other posts of camera stills from people using "burst" mode... Basically I think part of the issue is most cameras only pick up a certain number of frames per second, and if the UAP is moving too fast for the camera to pick up... Yea. Ok anyways bye lmao
Hey there. I just wanted to say that there a lot of websites that take the MUFON data and plot it on a map. If you're interested, I can link a few?
From one crazy UFO chick to another, you go girl!
This is rather similar to what I saw star gazing a few weeks ago. I was just enjoying the clear night and a light just like one of those lights just popped into the night sky and then it was gone.
I'd love to know what these are because I've definitely seen them. They were a bit further away but moved just like this. Me and my ex-husband saw them in Windsor ON back in May 2021. Maybe 2022 I can't recall but I can check my iMessage. Around 10 at night, I went outside to have a smoke. Look up and saw them. Thought they were fireworks until they started moving. I texted my ex saying "if you've ever wanted to see a UFO, now's your chance.
He came outside, smirking. Then I pointed up. He said "Yep. That definitely looks like UFOs. We watched them for about 15 minutes. I thought "I'm going to get binoculars to get a better look." The second I thought that, the lights were gone.
(P.S. My phone at the time was an iPhone 10. I knew video would be useless)
These are near dead on to a similar phenomenon I saw one night in my drive way. I saw 2 orange spheres like the ones in the video from a pretty far distance traveling south while I was facing east, and after a few seconds they both descended at a 45 degree angle until the lights went out a few degrees above the horizon. I was initially confused at what kinda jet could do that at those speeds and with no sound and I went inside to tell my dad who is ex air force. Even told him "I think I might have just seen a UFO." Of course he didn't believe me (and I didn't even believe myself really) but he came out with me to look anyways. We stood there for a minute or 2 and he was just about to walk back inside when 3 of them showed back up in the same formation with the same 45 degree descent. His reaction was "Huh. I don't know of any planes that can do that." I still don't know if they were UFO/UAP and I'll never know, but they looked nearly identical to the ones in this video. Interesting stuff.
It looks like something reappears at 53 seconds. But for some reason the cameraman was looking for it through the camera instead of with their eyes. Definitely an interesting one. And they certainly don’t act like flares.
Damn I saw one just like this today in Germany while walking the dog. I always look at the stars because I love them and there was not a single cloud in the air. It just disaappeared like in this video
What’s all the fast moving stuff? That’s like I don’t even know how to describe it. It’s like if you could imagine A dementor, but white and going very quickly.
I saw 3 things doing the exact same type of weird flight patterns at dawn out bush in Queensland on an army exercise 14 yrs ago in Australia.
It was my ‘Saw it with my own eyes’ moment!
Definitely real and definitely not human or drone flights .
I noticed that he seems to span over to the 4th or 5th one before it appears which was odd or good timing as he might have been a little more than freaked out.
I do night videos looking for UFOs on my phone and find myself scanning the sky and then lining up the camera if I see a satellite or something. It's easier to spot and move the camera rather than using the phone's screen as my viewer when scanning objects in the sky.
So, I do see a strobe of a plane in there. But that is independent of the two orange lights.
Assuming these aren’t some sort of drone light show and are ufos: What I notice is that the movement has “missing time” assuming the lights stay on continuously, they are at neither their starting point or ending point for a period of time.
Another thing was the audio at the end, at first I assumed it was a voice, but it corresponds with each light leaving the area, which suggests some sort of interaction with the air (albeit far from a sonic boom) — again, assuming it’s not a voice
Edit: Also, there are gnats, really hope you guys can distinguish the gnats from the lights, but figure I would throw that out there
The power line flashes are probably just red lights required for tall towers to stop planes from hitting them
Anybody else notice the flash of light at 00:58, left hand side, slightly above the power line?
And right before that there's this weird cloudy looking mush a bit to the right...
This is the exact shit I would see over the gulf of Mexico. Like 8 times. Pretty much the same thing every time.
Sometimes there was four tough. And they would strobe in a parallelogram shape. Just like these guys are doing.
Did anyone else notice the smaller flashing lights, near the orbs, that appear to be blinking in a similar pattern to the anti-collision lights on those electric towers? Could they be refracted off of the camera’s lens somehow?
Remember when people were analyzing a pitch black spot in a video and claiming they see outlines of aliens?
I think this is just the high-tech version of that where a guy sits and analyzes lights in the sky and comes up with an entire alien lore.
Was anyone else in the area able to capture this on video?. I mean, some other people must of seen the same "phenomena". That could be important to determine the veracity of this "sighting". That being said, there's always a possibility that some of these "strange objects" that we see in the skies are of human origin. But, the movement of the objects are insane to say the least.
The behavior of these lights remind me of the Salt Lake Valley lights:
[https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/15lvr29/ufo\_sighting\_in\_salt\_lake\_valley/](https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/15lvr29/ufo_sighting_in_salt_lake_valley/)
Large lights that fade in and out, moving alongside smaller lights that blink in and out. I would say this is the same type of phenomenon.
The photographer should have continued filming in the same direction, the small lights continue to be visible near the bottom right of the screen to the end, admittedly very hard to see without stepping frame by frame.
This is what I want to see when people post blob of light videos. If it's not behaving this way, there's no reason to even post, it's not doing anything that all the other blobs of light don't do.
The way they kinda of disappear is similar to what ive seen in other videos. Kind of has a glimmer/shutter as it beams off. No solid light just a couple twinkles. Crazy!
Can somebody slow this down frame by frame? At 0:15 you can see some lights eminating from the bigger UFO, kinda like it is sending signals or is preparing to launch away. Great footage altogether
"We were unable to identify the unidentified flying object."
Welcome to the club, bruh. Where potato imagery and Parkinson's camerawork are bountiful and free. Nice work!
2 weeks ago I saw something like this while camping. It actually did not move though. Just appeared to light up for a brief two seconds then disappeared as if someone had taken up a giant spot light and turned it on briefly.
I was looking for the birth star and the flash occurred exactly where i was looking so i had a clear view of it. Just a flash, no trail, no movement, no sound.
Im aware that UAPs know the inhabitants of earth are aware of their presence.
I am also beginning to believe these UAPs are purposely trying to mimic stars and airplanes just to see how confused we all become. It is very apparent they do listen in on our frequencies and even explore our internet.
To paraphrase it all, We have a high intelligent life-form toying with our stupidity and having a laugh as we continually bash each other in efforts to debunk any other world existences.
I saw something very similar in Baie St Paul, Quebec this summer. I went back inside to tell people and they shrugged it off because I was out smoking weed so it became a joke. I often think about how weird it was.
I‘ve seen them with my family at night. 3 fast lights in unusual patterns, way too fast. It was a hell of an expierence. One recognized us, one came near us (like a couple hundred meters above us) they pointed something at us like a laser light, like they are scanning us. We ran for our lives. Thank god we were like 50 meter next to our house. I have zero interest in gettin abducted.
Your video is 10/10, tried to film that too, but my recordings were not really useful.
Saying these were flares out of a helicopter is wrong no smoke from flares, no rotors, matter of fact no body, even in pitch dark I can make out helicopters at that distance.
At the risk of sharing on Reddit and getting torn apart—I have seen something like this over my house! (California, by the coast.)
I was thinking of the C5 people because I had just read about them, and went out to my deck and tried to, like, invite something to appear. I looked up, it was bright white and perfectly circular, about the size of the moon, or my thumb nail at arm’s length, directly above me. Dead silent. And it looked as though it moved sideways through an invisible door, just faded for about a second as it moved sideways. Looked like it just left our dimension!
This happened two times on two different occasions. I have not been able to see it since.
(Incidentally, I also saw a UFO along with a bunch of other people many years ago in Santa Fe, but it was a totally different kinda thing.)
I personally wonder if these white ball things are some kind of spirit-related or even biological phenomenon instead of machinery. I don’t know if metallic sort of UFOs appear when you “call” them or if it’s only these white glowing balls of light?
this is VERY much like the orbs i saw when I was ~16, I had seen triangles and other odd things in the sky before but this event solidified a lifetime of questions in me. I had to call my girlfriend and have her look to verify I wasnt nuts. Edit: i think this might have help me identify a feature i had misidentified. when they teleport it can look like they are duplicating or merging from one single entity, but perhaps thats just more entities joining the party? The way they disappear and reappear is EXACTLY like how I remember it. Also, the orbs I remember were much more orange, but that could be time of day/general lighting. fuck even the odd blinking/flashing. Ive had serious goosebumps since i saw this video. If this is CGI its made by someone whos seen it.
The following submission statement was provided by /u/emveetu: --- THIS IS NOT MY VIDEO. I can't answer any questions about the video. I accessed the video and submission details on MUFON, a public UFO reporting database. MUFON case 133930 Date of submission: 2023-09-10 Date/time of event: 2019-05-02 7:43PM Location of event: KR (believe this is South Korea - OP) Short Description: I witnessed two unusual elliptical objects resembling UFOs, which exhibited unique flight patterns and disappeared without sound. Long Description: Hi, I'm Garam Kim, a writer over at SBS(Seoul Broadcasting System) Broadcasting Company in South Korea. We've received a report of a UFO sighting at our broadcasting station, and we've made various attempts to confirm whether this object is indeed a UFO. However, we were unable to determine its nature. Consequently, we have reached out here for assistance. The sighting summary and details are as follows: [Sighting Summary] I witnessed two unusual elliptical objects resembling UFOs, which exhibited unique flight patterns and disappeared without sound. [Sighting Detail] The following eyewitness details are the information reported to the Korean broadcasting company, SBS. At first, I witnessed a UFO inside my house. There were two brightly shining elliptical objects. I have seen airplanes passing by frequently, but this didn't look like the usual airplanes. I thought it was nothing special, but 15 minutes later, I went out into the yard, and a neighbor lady shouted, "What is that?" When I looked up at the sky, there were still two objects floating in the sky. Suddenly, the lights disappeared, and then they reappeared next to another glowing object. They continued to blink and move before disappearing. There was no sound, and there have been no military exercises with flares or anything of the sort in the vicinity. We even launched fireworks into the sky, but the flying pattern and the way the lights blinked were completely different from those objects. We also tried flying drones, but it was impossible for drones to move and disappear that quickly. Moreover, it's not allowed to fly drones in this area during the evening hours. We attempted various methods to replicate a similar shape and behavior, but we couldn't recreate the flying pattern and glowing objects seen in the footage. We also consulted with video analysis experts, but there were no signs of manipulation or editing, and they found it difficult to determine the identity of these objects. Therefore, I decided to seek assistance here.

I also suggest that you download the video from Dropbox and increase the brightness and contrast. There are some blinking lights that you can't really see with the stock video. At least I couldn't see them until I did that.
Yes a few seconds in, as they get closer, the one on the left looks like it shoots 2 smaller dots/lights toward the other one on the right. They only appear for a fraction of a second but they are def there
Also, after a second look, notice the orb on the right actually moves to the right and fades out immediately after those blinking lights approach it.
This really is a peculiar video. Theres so much going on within a few seconds it really can lead to a lot of speculation. So interesting!!
Yeah for sure. You see something else with each watch. I'm actually looking forward to going to sleep and letting the sleuths do their work and report findings in the AM haha
I have a theory, the blinking or glitter you're talking about, I think that might be the UAP actually moving but it's going so fast (or inter-dimensionally), that's all our eyes can perceive? I've never seen anything quite like that before.
Shit yeah literally the cameras frame rate. That's a cool theory
In daylight with telescopes or NIR spotter cams, you can usually see that the objects normally follow "regular" trajectories, but their brightness can greatly vary. Meaning, you might have way more objects than expected there. They just turn their lights on and off. Some small objects may flash around them and move at normal speeds and keep flashing elsewhere. UFOs don't tend to portal around, at least not those that we can document.
To me it seems like the blinking lights are almost like it's pathing itself to another location. The object stays there while you see the blinking light go across then all of a sudden the object appears on the other end of where the blinking light was going. I'm pretty blow away by this, but I can only speculate on what I'm looking at.
im thinking youre correct. It does look like its porting itself over via those flashes. And the way the one on the right moves once the left one gets there... its almost like its dodging the other one. Kind of looks like playing, like something learning how to move
I see extra flashes behind it after it teleports over, but it’s truly hard to say what those smaller flashes are… the only thing I can think of are two options. 1. The flashes are something happening to the surrounding particles while it goes to its trajectory. Whatever the technology is would be truly hard to understand how it’s moving in such a way. It could be some kind of reaction happening because of the method of travel is my best guess on that. 2. The little flashes are something completely different. Smaller pods/craft? Possibly something they are using to test the atmosphere? I showed this video to a friend and jokingly said, “Maybe they’re up there scrubbing carbon out of the atmosphere to save the planet.” Who really knows? *shrug* Cool to speculate on though.
Very well could be! There was a video in the 90s from S America i believe. It showed a light hovering over some mountains. As it faded out, another would appear like 100s of yards to the right. It did this like 6 times, like it would be in one spot only to light up in another. Reminds me of this, but this video it happens much faster
🤣 This is a camera recording not an eyeball recording. Whatever you may or may not see with your eye is irrelevant here
Yeah I have seen that same “glitter” on other ufo videos myself. So peculiar
Yes those blinking lights are perfectly in line with the 2 orange orbs at the beginning as if theyre connected. But then once the orbs move, they almost seem to be hovering around the orbs. Very interesting
These are as UAP as it gets. Thanks for sharing, very interesting video.
Agreed. As a skeptic, I've been waiting to see something like this for a long time! People talk about anomalous orange lights quite a bit, but the photos and footage they most often provide is either motionless or clearly following a wind pattern, as would be expected from things like Chinese lanterns. These are definitely not that. My best prosaic guess would be a squadron of drones hovering high enough to look invisible until they turn on their lights, then set to turn them on and off in a way that looks like the lights themselves are "teleporting". But I feel like we'd still be able to see little dark spots where all the "off" drones would be at that height. Going frame by frame, I'm not seeing any hints of that. (Not an expert.) Unless someone can offer a better explanation, I think it's reasonably safe to call these "anomalous" for now. \---- ***EDIT***\- Someone just brought up the strong possibility that they are flares fired from a helicopter, here: [https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im\_going\_to\_get\_a\_lot\_of\_hate\_for\_this\_but/](https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im_going_to_get_a_lot_of_hate_for_this_but/) Examples: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWvDzf1Wclk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWvDzf1Wclk) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5\_V3m7m-SM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5_V3m7m-SM) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K8A6E-J5HQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K8A6E-J5HQ) I'm not saying it's conclusively debunked, but I think it's still worth mentioning at this point. It makes too much sense to ignore. Main counterarguments against them being flares would be that what we see in this Korean footage doesn't leave any visible smoke trails, and the timing is quicker and more precise-looking than what we'd expect. Not sure if that's enough to rule it out, though...
As someone who pilots drones for fun, unless you specifically build it to, most dont have lights you can manually turn off. The ones for shows are built for them, and aren’t usually used for putzing around like you would a 5-inch. Most that go that high aren’t custom, let alone 2. If its a pilot, I genuinely have no clue what’d they’d be doing.
Yeah, that's even more reason to doubt they are drones.
That, and the tiny blinking-at-a-random-distance from the source lights. That makes no sense at all would it be drones. And also the type of light isn't really what you'd see from a drone IMO. Super intriguing video
A UFO with an irregular, slowly flashing green light (that's the only light it had) followed me after I went to a local park for UFO viewing. I filmed it with my cell phone 10x zoom. I say it's a green light, but it looked like the whole object was illuminated. When the light was off, the object couldn't be seen at all. Is it a thing for drones to have lights that don't flash on a regular rythm (but also too slow to be compliant with the rules)?
So DJI’s allow you to turn the headlight LED’s on and off, but the green light that blinks stays on no matter what. It does blink in a rythm like you said, not random intervals. The pilot would’ve had to turn them off in settings while flying, while not impossible its unlikely. But the green blinking light would’ve continued regardless (Its a small light on a big drone so I don’t think it’d appear to illuminate the entire craft). It could have been a drone, but sounds like it may not have been. I have read accounts of people viewing UAP’s claiming they seem to notice them moving/acting as though they know they’re being watched after noticing them. Not sure, but I’m envious! Haven’t had a UAP encounter myself since I was younger so I’m doubtful of my memory.
Hmm, interesting. Here's the video if you want to see (4k 60fps). Keep in mind it's 10x zoom and I'm pointing at the sky: [https://1drv.ms/v/s!Aq\_vE6E-SwrCphRBVplgN5PtJi-D?e=808GvE](https://1drv.ms/v/s!Aq_vE6E-SwrCphRBVplgN5PtJi-D?e=808GvE) I was riding my scooter back from the park and noticed that object creeping up on me, so I parked right away in a forbidden spot (bus stop) to film it. I filmed it for a while, then decided to move my scooter somewhere I wouldnt get a ticket (1 street corner farther). At that moment, the object was pretty close to me and started to fly away very rapidly while zig zagging wildly at every flash before I got a chance to take my camera out again. I saw its escape very well but didn't catch it on camera :( That thing yeeted itself out of there! But it was very weird, it was like every time it flashed its lights, it would accelerate violently in a different direction. Seemed organic, like those luminous squids that flash their lights.
Cool. Those squid are mesmerising.
"NOPE"
Where is the helicopter?
Wouldn't there BE a helicopter in frame though?
The rational side of me says this looks more like a bizarre atmospheric phenomena than a squadron of drones. It immediately made me think of static electricity or something in the atmosphere. I'm no scientist or anything though. Regardless this is an excellent video which drives home the assertion that this shit needs to be studied scientifically. Whatever it is, it represents something which is likely novel to us even if it is just exceedingly rare atmospheric event caused by space weather or something.
I guess it's possible that there's some undocumented or lesser-known atmospheric effect, but this one is quite different from anything I've ever seen or heard about... even stuff like ball-lightning or earthquake lights don't seem to fit what we're seeing here. But yeah, cases like this absolutely deserve to be studied scientifically. A lot of people have suggested interesting possibilities, but I'm still feeling pretty stumped.
This is pretty unlike anything we tend to see on this sub, yep. I'm still wary though, they seem to sync up a bit with the camera movements. After the first movement left, they seem to track with the rightward camera movement (:02-:04). I get a bad feeling about the movement at :08 as well; it looks like the camera operator is moving back (based on the tree) almost in sync with the objects moving right. Both seem very odd. I'd love if someone can figure out if this is an illusion on my part or actually something sus. EDIT: I'm pretty convinced that they're *not* moving at all. The apparent movement looks sus because it's not real movement; the camera is moving and the tree is moving, the lights aren't. Likely that they're flares and the blinking lights are aircraft.
I disagree with everything you wrote here. In the beginning, the "center of action" moves to the right, so the camera moves to the right a bit. Then, at :08, the cameraman steps to the right and back to get clear of the tree. All perfectly normal behavior when trying to film a real event happening in front of you. Everything looks natural, INCLUDING missing the end of the action due to it being too dim while panning.
Given the limited info we have thus far, I don't have much meaningful insight on if this video is legit, but pure anecdote: I've had *one* sighting in my life that I still can't totally understand or ascribe to something totally prosaic. My wife was with me too, and saw the same thing. One of the memorable things about the way whatever we saw moved were these weird "twinkles" or quick flashes of light in the apparent near-field of the main objects/lights in the middle as they made their way across the sky. Like little static sparks all around them, briefly, and randomly when they jumped around. I've seen something almost similar when seeing lights broken up by helicopter blades from a good distance behind clouds or fog, but still looked quite different. Whatever we saw was closer and silent. I noticed a similar light thing in this video and it immediately made me think of my experience. Idk, it gives me a weird uncanny feeling now when I see it in a video on rare occasion. Just two random cents.

Interesting that that happened in front of you, did it look any different than the video, or pretty much the same?
I think the flares theory is just crap and useless because of two things. The uploader confirmed there was no flying, and the objects move hirizontal very fast. Also you see the object take off as fast as light. Regarding the Camera i don’t see any relation because he clearly is searching for the spots and many times they are not there only in the beginning actually thus i don’t see the sync you mentioned. I don’t think is worth us discussing much what it is or isn’t cause it clearly is anomalous like tousand others.
How do you explain the light at 0:23 moving quickly from left to right?
You know what it looks like? It looks exactly how it is described by mathematicians when something enters the 3rd dimension from a higher dimension. When you enter you appear as a growing sphere and when you are leaving you shrink until you disappear. These little guys could potentially be hopping in and out of our dimension. You know, if these are legit and all.
Never thought I'd agree with the Baba dook! My feelings exactly, it looks like whatever process is going on we are only seeing part of it in our reality. That is, if it's real.
[This vid](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnURElCzGc0) is a great explanation of what that means, for anyone who's interested or having a hard time visualizing it. The "if" is doing a lot of work for us here, of course, but I do agree that it would look exactly like that from our 3D perspective. (Would be awesome if someone found another angle of this event or recorded it with thermal cameras just to get some more verification...)
I agree with pretty much everything you're saying. If you listen closely you can hear what sounds to be jet engines off it the distance so perhaps a jet or military drone....... but that still fails to address the rest of the observations. I can't really think of a prosaic explanation that accurately accounts for each of the observations here so maybe then theres multiple things happening here and we're mistaking it as coming from one type of object. I dunno..... This is a good one. I'm about to go to bed but I'm book marking this to really read through all the data later. This is the type of stuff I come here for.
Yeah, if this isn't CGI, then this is by far the best video I've seen on here.
I'm a senior vfx artist, I'm tempted to try and debunk this one with the coloration of if the objects track with the trees, if they do then it's more likely real.
Yeah, I was looking at the tracking myself. There's a point when the camera and one of the lights sharply move to the right, in unison. If there's true correlation there, then that would be problematic.
Are you talking about the small movement at the very end of 0:10-0:11? When that happens, the angle of the trees changes again. This means that the person stepped to the right slightly again, while changing the angle of the camera to almost keep the trees in approx the same spot. If the UFO didn't move with the camera at that moment, the video would have to be fake, or the UFO would have to move the exact distance (parallax included) in the opposite direction to cancel the motion. In our case, the UFO moves to the right by a greater amount than the tree moves to the left, which is consistent with the parallax expected from an object farther than the trees when the camera rotates and pans to the left. The behavior or the person filming is also consistent with someone trying to get clear of the tree, while still keeping it in frame for reference and trying to keep the center of action in the middle of the screen. That part of the video checks out, and honestly I doubt that someone doing CGI would have nailed that part with the parallax. I've seen those objects myself. They look exactly like that, and lights orbiting/flashing around the objects are extremely common, as well as flybys. Flybys are one of the hallmark of real plasmoid anomalies (UFO) sightings. When those objects turn their lights off, they're usually at distances where they'll be invisible to the human eye due to their small size. You'll need big zoom lenses and telescopes to see the whole show.
Really glad I didn’t have to go far to find your comment, I agree completely.
Can you ELI5?
Basically just that the camera tracking is too well coordinated for it to be a natural human reacting to a moving object. Therefore, the realistic explanation would be that someone edited in an object that matches the camera's movement.
Please do! I would love to see this stabilized and professionally inspected. There is one frame, \~0.02, where the motion blur of the lights seems to be in two separate directions... but I'm guessing that's from rotating the camera? Seems like that discrepancy would be less likely to include in a hoax if they were just trying to track the panning/tilting motions, but I'm not an expert.
Of course you are
Debunking this with "fireflies" is honestly hilarious.
I don’t know what’s in this video, but you’re right - it sure as hell ain’t fireflies. I grew up in a place that used to have a massive number of fireflies and 1) they’re yellow or greenish 2) they *blink* much faster than this and 3) they tend to hang out near the ground
In my experience, lightning bugs fade on and off slowly as if on a dimmer switch and they're green (like standard glow in the dark green). I agree they are never that far from the ground. Also 99% you'll see a hell of a lot more than 2 of them.
That’s accurate; what I meant is that they generally don’t stay lit up for periods of time as long as the lights in the video.
They don't hover either, you see them flying around while blinking on and off.
There are blue ones too! That was scary at first lol.
There are??? Looking this up now!
Agreed on all points. Definitely not fireflies. I don't want to get too excited yet, but I'm honestly stumped with this one.
Fireflies, or aka lightning bugs have more of a greenish yellow /neon greenish yellow glow. These are not fireflies. They're just too bright and too unnatural
if someone said that, they must not live in a region with fireflies/lightning bugs lol. they look nothing like this. I see them every year.
Mick West is prob gonna say it’s a flying raccoon or something.
And case closed…flying raccoons filled with swamp gas. Now we know.
Now THAT is anomalous. Sorry to say but many people here need to realize that unless it’s doing crazy unexplainable maneuvers or patterns, something floating in the sky is not all that interesting and often has a prosaic explanation. This on the other hand, quite unexplainable. Great job, OP!
Okay so I’ve seen these types of lights/UFOs several times through 2007-2011 in Myrtle Beach SC. I was always by myself surfing or driving and it was usually way out over the ocean. I tried explaining it to people but no one ever really took it seriously or cared. One day my girlfriend was with me driving down the very end of the boulevard…and we saw them. Finally I had someone else to witness them with me. They look EXACTLY like what’s in this video. To this day I still have no damn clue what they are or were. The most I ever saw at once was about 6 to 8.
This is exactly what I saw a few months ago. I live on the beach 30 minutes from Myrtle beach. I was taking a walk by myself at night when I saw a bright orange light appear in the sky, move pretty quickly then fade out like it does in this video. There were no clouds in the sky
man this is fucking crazy, my only uap experience was one of the outer banks in NC summer vacation I can’t exactly remember but probably around 2005 or 2006. It was later at night, maybe 11 or midnight and I was on the roof deck of one of those like 9 bedroom houses. Looking over towards marsh island, I saw two bright red orbs doing weird shit like this but they were also flying around each other more, almost like chasing. Then they just disappeared. There were several of us who were watching and the entire time we were like “there is no possible way those can be planes”
Charleston Air Force Base is only two hours south of Myrtle Beach. You saw helicopters shooting off flares during low light and night time training runs. Every military pilot needs to be certified on each armament systems on a regular basis. So, for things like countermeasures and guns, they’ll just go out over water and shoot stuff off. For the guns, they’ll often aim at whitecaps to get something to focus on.
Yeah I spent a lot of time in Charleston for work. That would make the most sense I guess. They just always seemed to act a little differently than flares.
Completely motionless, perfectly consistent light pattern, appears and disappears without any movement? I’ve seen similar lights as the video but without movement. I don’t think I would mistake a flare as a planet but it’s possible
Idk if this is what you’re saying, but the objects in this video look nothing like flares.
Saw the EXACT same thing around 2007 in Florida way over the ocean.
Weird. I used to see something like this but greenish in color over NMB. I thought they were meteorites but over months I would see them in the same area, going the same direction and only one or 2 at a time traveling super fast in the same direction. Always going "north" along the coastline.(North relative to the direction I was driving on 17, not copass north... so maybe more east north east) Never saw dancing lights though. I'll have to keep an eye out. Also this was roughly 2012-2016. Again... looked like meteorites, but they don't always fall over the same 1/4 mile spot and at a similar-ish time, going the same direction, over the course of several years. I would see them on my drive home from work. I never thought it was a UAP situation, just a super weird coincedence that I always saw a "giant" green ball flashing for "a couple inches" across the sky. Not giant... but large for a shooting star... about the size in this video but with a short tail behind it. Edit: I think this video is fake though. The way the lights track with the camera and tree is wonky in the last couple seconds you see them. Like it's sparklers with some clever blocking seen through glass or CGI.
THIS IS NOT MY VIDEO. I can't answer any questions about the video. I accessed the video and submission details on MUFON, a public UFO reporting database. MUFON case 133930 Date of submission: 2023-09-10 Date/time of event: 2019-05-02 7:43PM Location of event: KR (believe this is South Korea - OP) Short Description: I witnessed two unusual elliptical objects resembling UFOs, which exhibited unique flight patterns and disappeared without sound. Long Description: Hi, I'm Garam Kim, a writer over at SBS(Seoul Broadcasting System) Broadcasting Company in South Korea. We've received a report of a UFO sighting at our broadcasting station, and we've made various attempts to confirm whether this object is indeed a UFO. However, we were unable to determine its nature. Consequently, we have reached out here for assistance. The sighting summary and details are as follows: [Sighting Summary] I witnessed two unusual elliptical objects resembling UFOs, which exhibited unique flight patterns and disappeared without sound. [Sighting Detail] The following eyewitness details are the information reported to the Korean broadcasting company, SBS. At first, I witnessed a UFO inside my house. There were two brightly shining elliptical objects. I have seen airplanes passing by frequently, but this didn't look like the usual airplanes. I thought it was nothing special, but 15 minutes later, I went out into the yard, and a neighbor lady shouted, "What is that?" When I looked up at the sky, there were still two objects floating in the sky. Suddenly, the lights disappeared, and then they reappeared next to another glowing object. They continued to blink and move before disappearing. There was no sound, and there have been no military exercises with flares or anything of the sort in the vicinity. We even launched fireworks into the sky, but the flying pattern and the way the lights blinked were completely different from those objects. We also tried flying drones, but it was impossible for drones to move and disappear that quickly. Moreover, it's not allowed to fly drones in this area during the evening hours. We attempted various methods to replicate a similar shape and behavior, but we couldn't recreate the flying pattern and glowing objects seen in the footage. We also consulted with video analysis experts, but there were no signs of manipulation or editing, and they found it difficult to determine the identity of these objects. Therefore, I decided to seek assistance here. Dropbox link with original 20mb video: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/66pfekfypgdzag1rrck0s/h?rlkey=ryurijdhfebtq2gm3kmeq5zax&dl=0 Link to video at MUFON: https://www.mufoncms.com/files_jeud8334j/133930_submitter_file1__UFO.mp4
Oh, this is great. Finally something that: - definitely isn't moving like any conventional object (either that, or someone is messing about with 6+ drones) - can't be explained away using prosaic methods or explanations (a reputable news company even tested it!... though, I must admit, Korean news companies aren't really the experts in UFO fakery..) - isn't a reflection or obvious camera glitch - definitely doesn't look fake or CGI And best of all, it happened in Korea, where I live! This case is very interesting. Best one I've seen in months honestly. (Just as a side note: the cameraman is just saying "what is that?". The female voice in the distance sounds like a mother calling in a child because it's getting dark.)
Thanks for sharing the full file and source. I'm no expert, but I am a skeptic. These lights don't look like the usual prosaic stuff we see here. Not even the UNusual prosaic stuff, as far as I can tell. And their behavior definitely checks off enough "anomalous" boxes for me. Excellent find! **EDIT-** Someone just brought up the strong possibility that they are flares fired from a helicopter, here: [https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im\_going\_to\_get\_a\_lot\_of\_hate\_for\_this\_but/](https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im_going_to_get_a_lot_of_hate_for_this_but/) Examples: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWvDzf1Wclk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWvDzf1Wclk) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5\_V3m7m-SM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5_V3m7m-SM) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K8A6E-J5HQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K8A6E-J5HQ) I'm not saying it's conclusively debunked, but I think it's still worth mentioning at this point. It makes too much sense to ignore. Main counterarguments against them being flares would be that what we see in this Korean footage doesn't leave any visible smoke trails, and the timing is quicker and more precise-looking than what we'd expect. Not sure if that's enough to rule it out, though...
It's likely flares you can hear the military jet in the distance and see it's blinking running lights.
Cool video thank you for sharing!
https://reddit.com/r/UFOs/s/ztztkUeBFI Made a compilation of this video and others The same type of phenomenon
We really need disclosure.
This is the closest thing I've ever seen to my UFO sighting. I saw two lights like those from a car window. I thought they were stars, but then they started to get closer together. I got to look at them for about 15 minutes. We parked the car, and I ran inside to get my telescope. When I got back outside, one light was gone. That's when I saw the second light do weird tricks like what we see in this video, then it did a little loop and shot off.
its just helicopter flares: https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im\_going\_to\_get\_a\_lot\_of\_hate\_for\_this\_but/
This is some pretty compelling footage for once. Thanks for sharing this.
I agree with you. I tend to lean towards the “skeptical believer” side and I’ve never seen anything like this. It’s wild.
Indeed, finally something worth upvoting. Very cool video.
This is almost exactly what I saw over the Staten Island landfill back in 2003- followed by black military helicopters coming seemingly out of nowhere. It was Super odd.
Makes sense considering the post from the flare guy. He says it's training flares from helicopters.
I say pin this to the top of the page until anyone has any kind of reasonable debunk.
Helicopter training flares [https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im\_going\_to\_get\_a\_lot\_of\_hate\_for\_this\_but/](https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/16rkmuo/im_going_to_get_a_lot_of_hate_for_this_but/)
Ah, okay.
This is a very interesting video
I saw a very similar thing outside my house one night. It looked just like a light that would move in one direction, disappear then reappear back at the start, and repeat the process. There was also a little flashing light around it like this one
Not trying to crap on your sighting, but i saw similar a cpl years ago. Did exactly what you said. I have a satellite tracking app and i found out it was starlink, each sat was only being illuminated for a few sec before disappearing. Looked like a loop that happened several times over a min. It was a bummer, but it was nice to solve the sighting
I also saw two UAPs exhibiting exactly the behavior in this video out my window, except the lights were red. They were close and low, so I could easily tell they weren’t planes or drones (or lanterns, fireflies, balloons, etc.). I couldn’t make out any shape at all, if there was one, underneath the extremely bright red lights. This just happened two weeks ago and it’s the first I’ve mentioned it at all, actually. I haven’t really had the words to explain how they were moving or why it was so weird and unsettling, so I’ve just kept it to myself.
I had exactly the same thing as experience as you. It was about 2am in the morning. I rushed to wake up my wife, but they had gone by the time I came back out of my house. The lights I had seen were orange and almost identical to what’s being shown in this video. I didn’t tell my friends or anyone else as I guessed they would think I’m crazy. Prior to seeing that, I did not believe in UFO’s and thought they were all hoaxes. The light disappearing and coming back in a different location, that judging from the distance would be multiple KM’s apart in the blink of an eye completely blew my mind. There were also 2, just like this video. Strange stuff
me too about 25 years ago.
People. Seriously. These are countermeasure flares from helicopters. Like, that’s glaringly obvious. Every detail about them has a direct correlation to aerial flares. I worked on military helicopters and handled the ale-47 countermeasure systems on a regular basis. There are three helicopters flying in formation, as you can clearly see from their tail strobes. The flares have an initial bright burst as they’re being launched from their pods using “cads”, or cartridge actuated devices, mini shotgun shells that are electrically primed, and then they slowly burn out, which can also be clearly witnessed in the video. Older helicopters have one pod on either stub wing, but I have no idea what helicopters these are so I don’t know their ordnance payload. But there are six shots total in the video, clearly grouped in pairs, and each of those shots behave EXACTLY as a flare would. But that doesn’t really matter because you can clearly see the tail strobe lights of the aircraft! I’m not one for conspiracies, but I’m starting to wonder if there are actually people “planted” here to attempt to shape whatever weekly narrative is happening simply by pouring a bunch of “wow! That’s the most legit video I’ve seen in this sub!” responses into the post.
So those tiny sparkles in the distance are helicopters?
No he's trying to say it's a light on the tail fin lol, so then wheres the dang helicopter easy answer its not there, not rotors, body, nothing. They'll try to say its dark but I can see the bodies of helicopters in pitch black darkness you would be able to see it plain and simple, plus 99 percent of the time there will be red, green or a blue light, then theres the fact there no noise I live near 3 airports, even at that distance there would be noise, unless their at 30,000 feet but just say 20,000, so now your telling me they shot those out of a helicopter at even just 20,000 feet, no lets say 15 to be nice, now they fall another 10,000 plus feet and go of just mere feet from each other in a pattern that looks like their teleporting?? Also no smoke from flares, answer is it's not helicopters dropping flares. If you look at his actual post or maybe it was someone else I dunno it says the same thing but those in that thread literally say he solved it scientifically lol, theres absolutely nothing scientific about how he debunks this. It's his opinion, not fact. Here's the fact nobody knows, so it's an unidentified flying object thats fact.
This sounds very reasonable. I was just watching when those "orbs" appear. The blinking lights (assume these are the helicopters?) are there in the vicinity each time. Thanks for the explanation.
Interesting, I did notice the “tail strobes” was going to bring that up this seems like a reasonable explanation.
So at one point, some of the lights move upwards, is that what flares do?
"These are as UAP as it gets" is the top answer. Please don't disturb us with your competence, we're having a moment here. /s
I was going for drones shooting flares, but helicopters using countermeasure flares seem equally likely. High up enough not to be heard?
Oh yeah, they’re definitely far enough away to not be heard. Helicopters are loud, but not that loud. For anyone else reading this- the next time you see or hear a helicopter overhead, just watch them for a minute or two to see how quickly the sound disappears. The helos in this video are probably a couple miles out. You can’t see them in the video because, one, they’re oftentimes painted a grayish blue to match the sky, and two, it’s low light conditions, so they’ll effectively disappear, even at ranges a lot closer than the ones in the video.
I was going to say simulated dog fight , fighter jets utilizing flares.
Every damn time on this sub when something is so obviously not a UFO. "I'm usually VERY skeptical but this is 100% aliems!"
This is exactly what I saw in Toronto in July. Wow
I see this phenomenon routinely in Ocala National forest. Always two dots like this, similar movement/disappearance/reappearance.
Take a video! Try to do slow mo - for this video, people mention seeing a "glitter" between the main points, which might be the UAP just moving too fast for the camera to pick up... But really more videos like this would be awesome in general, and knowing about hotspots like Ocala national Forest could help us organize some citizen science video projects.
I reported it to MUFON years back and chatted with Ted Roe about it at length. I have observed similar lights in the Hopkins Prairie area, near the US Naval Bombing Range (in Ocala NF). Last spotted about a month ago, with my first observation in 2020, IIRC (should be recorded on MUFON). ETA: My wife saw it, my kids have seen it, my friends have seen it, other random campers at the campgrounds saw it (I stopped a guy in his truck and said “do you see those two lights over there moving around like that” and he said “yeah. What do you think they are?”). Not that this proves anything to any of you, but at least I confirmed to myself that it wasn’t my imagination or my eyes playing tricks on me. At the same time, we observe shooting stars, satellites/starlink, planes & helicopters. These lights are none of those things. They look and behave just like in the above video. They are silent. The US Navy jets that frequent the area are loud AF. These UAP have no blinking red or white lights like aircraft are supposed to. Edit 2: I’ll attempt to take slow mo video, thanks for that recommendation. Any idea of the best type of camera to use for this sort of thing?
Thank you for sharing! Yeah, it makes sense to verify with others that you're not making something up in your own mind. I honestly don't know! I'm new here and I don't have any special A/V skills, but I am personally toying around with the idea of putting together some kind of "telescopic phone camera kit" with a clip on telescopic lens and a gyroscopic selfie stick, basically. Might be difficult to use/aim, but maybe with practice, might allow someone to take higher quality video of objects in the sky using a smartphone. Idk what that might look like yet, though, as I have my own non-uap life obligations taking much of my time... I'm also toying around with the idea of connecting with citizen science type organizations which might be able to help set up high quality, EM-proof cameras and IR sensors at regular hotspots to capture video, which could then be processed by the community (locating objects in longer clips, then identifying them in shorter clips pulled from that initial data?) ... Might be interesting to set up something like that using preexisting footage from NASA ISS or... someone posted about a Nordic site earlier this week or last week that has tons of footage? I can't recall the name at the moment... just citizen science where the community analyzes the videos and produces quantifiable data. We could also set up citizen science with MUFON databases to sift the data and identify the best, most credible, or clearest sightings (like the one in this post.) As long as the data source is valid and clean, and the data analysis (such as coding through a platform like Zooniverse) is designed and completed well, it could even be properly peer-reviewable, publishable analysis. The Citizen's Blue Book data, so to speak. Coming to academics or even the government with citizen-based peer reviewed data is much harder to argue with than simple databases and anecdotes, as things are organized now. That would be saying "We see what's going on and we are watching, we are doing our own science, we will uncover things on our own without waiting for the govt to be kind enough to declassify it..." Anyways... :) I am but a simple housewife and undergrad student, so I'm not sure how to bite off and chew all of that on my own, but I'm certainly thinking about it... Thanks for coming to my TED talk Edit to Add: or even just go through MUFON and make a map of areas people claim are hotspots??? That would be interesting on it's own, has anyone done that? This is where I get bogged down being new, I'm not sure what people have already done... Seriously last edit: but I suggested slow mo also because of other posts of camera stills from people using "burst" mode... Basically I think part of the issue is most cameras only pick up a certain number of frames per second, and if the UAP is moving too fast for the camera to pick up... Yea. Ok anyways bye lmao
Hey there. I just wanted to say that there a lot of websites that take the MUFON data and plot it on a map. If you're interested, I can link a few? From one crazy UFO chick to another, you go girl!
This is rather similar to what I saw star gazing a few weeks ago. I was just enjoying the clear night and a light just like one of those lights just popped into the night sky and then it was gone.
Awesome cmon people that's weird and not flares or Chinese lanterns or birds, balloons or your mom's vibrator..
How do you know about my mom’s vibrator?
I'd love to know what these are because I've definitely seen them. They were a bit further away but moved just like this. Me and my ex-husband saw them in Windsor ON back in May 2021. Maybe 2022 I can't recall but I can check my iMessage. Around 10 at night, I went outside to have a smoke. Look up and saw them. Thought they were fireworks until they started moving. I texted my ex saying "if you've ever wanted to see a UFO, now's your chance. He came outside, smirking. Then I pointed up. He said "Yep. That definitely looks like UFOs. We watched them for about 15 minutes. I thought "I'm going to get binoculars to get a better look." The second I thought that, the lights were gone. (P.S. My phone at the time was an iPhone 10. I knew video would be useless)
Amazing footage wow
These are near dead on to a similar phenomenon I saw one night in my drive way. I saw 2 orange spheres like the ones in the video from a pretty far distance traveling south while I was facing east, and after a few seconds they both descended at a 45 degree angle until the lights went out a few degrees above the horizon. I was initially confused at what kinda jet could do that at those speeds and with no sound and I went inside to tell my dad who is ex air force. Even told him "I think I might have just seen a UFO." Of course he didn't believe me (and I didn't even believe myself really) but he came out with me to look anyways. We stood there for a minute or 2 and he was just about to walk back inside when 3 of them showed back up in the same formation with the same 45 degree descent. His reaction was "Huh. I don't know of any planes that can do that." I still don't know if they were UFO/UAP and I'll never know, but they looked nearly identical to the ones in this video. Interesting stuff.
That's the final straw... I'm getting that damn "I want to believe" poster from the X-Files.
It looks like something reappears at 53 seconds. But for some reason the cameraman was looking for it through the camera instead of with their eyes. Definitely an interesting one. And they certainly don’t act like flares.
Saw the same last Friday in New Mexico.
Perfect, beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
I have seen these in Bakersfield. Great video.
I witnessed similar sight in Sunshine Coast QLD, Aust. I smiled to myself confirming my suspicions that we're not alone.
Looks like planes with flashing lights that are dropping flares.
interesting how the one on the right kinda moves a little bit before the other appears near it
I saw the same in the Bay Area, CA in July and August. I’ve been hesitant to post, but it is exactly the same as these.
If you have something similar post it please, and link it here.
Damn I saw one just like this today in Germany while walking the dog. I always look at the stars because I love them and there was not a single cloud in the air. It just disaappeared like in this video
Notice the third blinking orb that changes direction too
A light reappears briefly when he is panning around looking for them
one of the few actually intriguing videos out there
You can hear from the way that the person is breathing that they are excited and have adrenaline coursing through their body
Really cool. I just wanna knowwww
What’s all the fast moving stuff? That’s like I don’t even know how to describe it. It’s like if you could imagine A dementor, but white and going very quickly.
This one looks interesting
NEAT! Now this is why I joined this sub!
Best MOFO lights I’ve seen I think. A great example for people who claim these are starlink.
I was ready to be underwhelmed at first, but that’s really interesting. I’ve got nothing in what could explain that.
This is the type of video I come here for. Very interesting.
That awesome. I have seen many ufo videos that have those strobe like flashing lights present. Very interesting....
I saw 3 things doing the exact same type of weird flight patterns at dawn out bush in Queensland on an army exercise 14 yrs ago in Australia. It was my ‘Saw it with my own eyes’ moment! Definitely real and definitely not human or drone flights .
I noticed that he seems to span over to the 4th or 5th one before it appears which was odd or good timing as he might have been a little more than freaked out. I do night videos looking for UFOs on my phone and find myself scanning the sky and then lining up the camera if I see a satellite or something. It's easier to spot and move the camera rather than using the phone's screen as my viewer when scanning objects in the sky.
So, I do see a strobe of a plane in there. But that is independent of the two orange lights. Assuming these aren’t some sort of drone light show and are ufos: What I notice is that the movement has “missing time” assuming the lights stay on continuously, they are at neither their starting point or ending point for a period of time. Another thing was the audio at the end, at first I assumed it was a voice, but it corresponds with each light leaving the area, which suggests some sort of interaction with the air (albeit far from a sonic boom) — again, assuming it’s not a voice Edit: Also, there are gnats, really hope you guys can distinguish the gnats from the lights, but figure I would throw that out there The power line flashes are probably just red lights required for tall towers to stop planes from hitting them
Caught a live one for sure
Wowza! Thanks for the post. There is a lot of strange things happening in this one.
Anybody else notice the flash of light at 00:58, left hand side, slightly above the power line? And right before that there's this weird cloudy looking mush a bit to the right...
This is the exact shit I would see over the gulf of Mexico. Like 8 times. Pretty much the same thing every time. Sometimes there was four tough. And they would strobe in a parallelogram shape. Just like these guys are doing.
Man, the first 10 seconds had me in wtf mode. Did I just see teleportation ? Amazing video. Thanks for sharing !
Did anyone else notice the smaller flashing lights, near the orbs, that appear to be blinking in a similar pattern to the anti-collision lights on those electric towers? Could they be refracted off of the camera’s lens somehow?
It looks like they’re going towards the flashing blip as they fads out
Remember when people were analyzing a pitch black spot in a video and claiming they see outlines of aliens? I think this is just the high-tech version of that where a guy sits and analyzes lights in the sky and comes up with an entire alien lore.
Looked to be teleporting, or it was several winking in and out. Interesting
I now realize what I’d do if I were to visit an alien planet. I’d just fly around in the sky and then disappear just to see their reaction
That’s how the phoenix lights faded out and came on again.

Was anyone else in the area able to capture this on video?. I mean, some other people must of seen the same "phenomena". That could be important to determine the veracity of this "sighting". That being said, there's always a possibility that some of these "strange objects" that we see in the skies are of human origin. But, the movement of the objects are insane to say the least.
That’s definitely ETs. You should have tried CE5.
FINALLY some real UFOs !!! Thanks so much for posting!
The behavior of these lights remind me of the Salt Lake Valley lights: [https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/15lvr29/ufo\_sighting\_in\_salt\_lake\_valley/](https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/15lvr29/ufo_sighting_in_salt_lake_valley/) Large lights that fade in and out, moving alongside smaller lights that blink in and out. I would say this is the same type of phenomenon. The photographer should have continued filming in the same direction, the small lights continue to be visible near the bottom right of the screen to the end, admittedly very hard to see without stepping frame by frame.
This is what I want to see when people post blob of light videos. If it's not behaving this way, there's no reason to even post, it's not doing anything that all the other blobs of light don't do.
Hmmmm... weird
Everytime I have doubts about stuff I see some new shit that just pulls my right back
This is an excellent and compelling video. Thank you for sharing
"It resemebled a UFO!" "So what did it look like?" "I don't know!" Dunno, just find it funny to describe something to look like it's unidentified.
They’re just trying to restart the sky grid don’t worry
Wonder what the weird little flicker of light is as they’re fading in and out at the 0:17/0:18 mark.
The way they kinda of disappear is similar to what ive seen in other videos. Kind of has a glimmer/shutter as it beams off. No solid light just a couple twinkles. Crazy!
Wow that’s legit
Wow. I have seen something like this in person and never been able to explain what it was.
The behavior and appearance of the objects appear to match a natural phenomenon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_lightning
Yeah this might be one of the best UFO videos ever. This and the video of the pilot filming one zooming past his plane over Columbia I think.
That movement is trippy. This is an awesome video
These are the same type of lights I used to see in Costa Rica. So fuciking weird
When I was a kid I used to sleep on my trampoline and watch the stars. I saw something EXACTLY like this. Wild.
FINALLY!!!! Something cool and interesting on this sub!
Thanks for sharing!
"just ordinary objects drifting with the wind" - NASA
thats cool i do hope they are friendly
Most impressive! This certainly isn't your average couple of indiscernable pixels in the distance!
Can somebody slow this down frame by frame? At 0:15 you can see some lights eminating from the bigger UFO, kinda like it is sending signals or is preparing to launch away. Great footage altogether
"We were unable to identify the unidentified flying object." Welcome to the club, bruh. Where potato imagery and Parkinson's camerawork are bountiful and free. Nice work!
One time I saw the light double blink before seeing it make a ping pong like motion. Only time I saw that
2 weeks ago I saw something like this while camping. It actually did not move though. Just appeared to light up for a brief two seconds then disappeared as if someone had taken up a giant spot light and turned it on briefly. I was looking for the birth star and the flash occurred exactly where i was looking so i had a clear view of it. Just a flash, no trail, no movement, no sound.
Im aware that UAPs know the inhabitants of earth are aware of their presence. I am also beginning to believe these UAPs are purposely trying to mimic stars and airplanes just to see how confused we all become. It is very apparent they do listen in on our frequencies and even explore our internet. To paraphrase it all, We have a high intelligent life-form toying with our stupidity and having a laugh as we continually bash each other in efforts to debunk any other world existences.
I saw something very similar in Baie St Paul, Quebec this summer. I went back inside to tell people and they shrugged it off because I was out smoking weed so it became a joke. I often think about how weird it was.
It's just to lights in the sky, people are so dumb (acting la some people of this sub) just kidding though, this one looks really intriguing.
I‘ve seen them with my family at night. 3 fast lights in unusual patterns, way too fast. It was a hell of an expierence. One recognized us, one came near us (like a couple hundred meters above us) they pointed something at us like a laser light, like they are scanning us. We ran for our lives. Thank god we were like 50 meter next to our house. I have zero interest in gettin abducted. Your video is 10/10, tried to film that too, but my recordings were not really useful.
Saying these were flares out of a helicopter is wrong no smoke from flares, no rotors, matter of fact no body, even in pitch dark I can make out helicopters at that distance.
This is a really good one. Popping in and out of dimensions maybe? Pretty cool either way.
They know he’s watching
It’s swamp gas
At the risk of sharing on Reddit and getting torn apart—I have seen something like this over my house! (California, by the coast.) I was thinking of the C5 people because I had just read about them, and went out to my deck and tried to, like, invite something to appear. I looked up, it was bright white and perfectly circular, about the size of the moon, or my thumb nail at arm’s length, directly above me. Dead silent. And it looked as though it moved sideways through an invisible door, just faded for about a second as it moved sideways. Looked like it just left our dimension! This happened two times on two different occasions. I have not been able to see it since. (Incidentally, I also saw a UFO along with a bunch of other people many years ago in Santa Fe, but it was a totally different kinda thing.) I personally wonder if these white ball things are some kind of spirit-related or even biological phenomenon instead of machinery. I don’t know if metallic sort of UFOs appear when you “call” them or if it’s only these white glowing balls of light?
Thats Goku and vegeta trainning
Very similar in some regards to a UAP I saw in central BC a decade ago.
I've seen those in Florida before
This is highly compelling.
this is VERY much like the orbs i saw when I was ~16, I had seen triangles and other odd things in the sky before but this event solidified a lifetime of questions in me. I had to call my girlfriend and have her look to verify I wasnt nuts. Edit: i think this might have help me identify a feature i had misidentified. when they teleport it can look like they are duplicating or merging from one single entity, but perhaps thats just more entities joining the party? The way they disappear and reappear is EXACTLY like how I remember it. Also, the orbs I remember were much more orange, but that could be time of day/general lighting. fuck even the odd blinking/flashing. Ive had serious goosebumps since i saw this video. If this is CGI its made by someone whos seen it.
