Crashed 'plane' turns out to be Google balloon: Did I film one in 2011 ???

In 2011 I filmed a object falling from the sky, could this have been a clandestine Google balloon?

An object which fell from the sky off the Canterbury coast, which was initially thought to have been a light aircraft, appears to be a giant balloon. Police say a local resident raised the alarm around 11.30am when he thought he saw a craft ditching into the sea near Cheviot. A helicopter was sent to inspect the scene and found the object was a Google balloon, used to connect rural areas to the internet. Around 30 balloons were launched into the skies around Canterbury a year ago.

Kind of hard to tell what it was…

I don't think it was one of those webs spiders spin to migrate.

Or a recovery streamer from a hobbyist rocket launch.
