Best day of my life!!!! I finally saw UFOs!!!! ridiculous earthquake a few hours ago, people closer to the beach said they heard explosions....my cousin called and said look out the window. i looked and it was glorious....came outside and a bunch of neighbors and people pulled over stopped and admired it. they were orange and red lights and the way they were traveling made me feel like it was a flock of birds migrating....or maybe they were called for something....either way i saw UFOs today and it makes it the best day of my life!!!!!!!
Freund says common forms of earthquake lights include bluish flames that appear to come out of the ground at ankle height; orbs of light called ball lightning that float in the air for tens of seconds or even minutes; and quick flashes of bright light that resemble regular lightning strikes, except they come out of the ground instead of the sky and can stretch up to 650 feet (200 meters).

I'd be concerned that your friend considers a sighting of an unidentified object(s) (that he admits may be a flock of birds) as the "best day of his life". I'm serious here.

When exactly did this happen? The nearest recent earthquake was offshore from Ichique, Chile at 1804 UTC+1 on 4 June - quite some distance from Lima. Having said that, the region is very quake prone and there may well have been a smaller quake nearby.
Earthquake lights have been reported in many forms, including coloured spheres. The 'aurora' type lights shown on a number of websites appear to be iridescent clouds, a phenomenon with no known (or likely) connection to earthquakes.

Why would this be a cause of concern?

I dunno. Personally....
- First time I slept with a girl.
- The day I graduated from college
- The time I slept with twins
- When I pitched my first no-hitter in colt baseball (Championship game)_
- When we beat our #1 football rival at CIF in high school ....and basically we partied every weekend for a month.
- When my gf told me she was pregnant.
A guy can pick a lot of moments as their best day ever....seeing something unidentified seems kind of...less eventful when you don't know what it is & when there's a lot of other awesomeness in life. I mean, if it turns out its chinese lanterns....and you told someone it was the greatest day of your life....that's kind of depressing, man.

Other than pitching a no-hitter (even if it was only in Pony baseball) most of those things are pretty mundane.
I'd put a UFO sighting over most of those. Maybe not the one mentioned in this thread. But a UFO sighting of some sort.
