2x UFOs spotted by my wife and I (video)

Hey people of ATS!

So today me and my wife managed to capture a couple of strange objects flying around. You will have to excuse the quality as it was filmed on my iPhone, I didn't have time to grab my other camera.

Anyway, so my wife was outside having a smoke and she spotted an object doing strange manoeuvres. She's usually very skeptical but she got quite excited by this and ran to get me. At first I brushed them off as being a plastic bag flying around (lol). But after watching it for a few minutes and judging by the movement, height, speed and lack of wind I changed my mind and decided to film it (quite badly.. sorry). At this time it turned out there was two of them.

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's aliens. But they are flying objects and they are unidentified. You be the judge

Oh and before I started filming them, one actually appeared to drop all the way to the ground and then shoot back up into the sky. Very strange indeed.

Let me know what you think!

PS: I have not edited this, but I added a bit of zoom to make it easier to see in the video. It looked much better IRL!

Thanks for sharing. To me it looks like two white party balloons floating in the wind while they ascending.

Off the top of my head, it looks like they are drifting with air currents.... so I'm gonna go with ... balloons?

Thanks for the reply. This was a thought of mine also. It's hard to see in the video but they actually appeared almost flat when looking up at them. They were also quite reflective. If it was a balloon, I can't imagine it all of a sudden dropping and then shooting back up again. It's a shame I missed that bit..

Umm. That's actually exactly what balloons do.
Air currents are not predictable.
Did you miss all of the science classes in grade 7 ?

I have seen balloons before but never flat shiny ones..

Look, I have no idea what these are or whether they are balloons or not but I thought it was interesting which is why I posted it. These things were very high and when it dropped it dropped very quickly almost to the ground (although it was hard to tell because it went behind some trees and houses in the distance).

Don't be disheartened mate. Take from this experience what you will. Not everything in life can be explained by "swamp gas" and "balloons".
People choose to believe and see what they want, so go with it.
I bet with almost 100% certainty that you seeing those UFO's, because they are unidentified, has somehow enriched your life and kick started your curiosity of the unknown to new heights......keep looking up mate, you never know.

Look up Mylar balloons on Google. As something with a personal UFO experience I certainly believe. Yet my aerospace engineering background tells me those were balloons.

I hear you mate, you could well be right.
It's a shame the video doesn't do it any justice as they really did not look like balloons. It's hard to make out the shape of them in the video, they didn't look like "balls" when actually looking up at them.

Thanks for the encouragement mate

I have had two "UFO" experiences in my life, this one being the less extravagant of the two. Unfortunately I had no camera the first time, man I wish I had... I'm trying not to jump to conclusions here and welcome any theories people may have

a reply to: Twenny

Here's my take . (and I've seen similar but real objects)

1: things are pretty slow.. as in air current slow
I see two levels of air current. The clouds move right while the balloons move left. . visually this messes with normal understanding of relative object speeds seen from ground to air. Especially without size facts.

2: the stationary stance of said "balloon # 2" is a bit odd at the halfway markish point... While following the first it stops.. then hovers with a slow Z axis movement (vertical) and seemingly no X - Y movement[Horizontal in whatever direction). . . I think it was caught within a thermal which halted X-Y and elevated the balloon on Z..

Conclusion -
Terrestrial but coolish

Flat(ish) shiny balloons. Doing a cool thing thanks to static electricity.


They're pretty common, actually. All sorts of fun shapes.

flat in answer to someone else, but not a match to the video.

These coukd be just plain white balloons Rather than a flat sided chrome finish balloon. . same conclusion which means "FAKE" , but reality wise I think they were white balloons far enough away to seem like a solid illuminated object.. white against a solid blue sky could appear "luminous".

edited to add that a flat side chrome balloon would "flicker" according to rotation

Thanks for the video.

Keep your camera at the ready.

Sometimes they come back.

Seen these before in Montana good video. Same type and they can stealth too.

Twenny, nice film! If they were the flat balloons being referred to, they'd at least twist or show signs of being caught in thermals, rather than both keep their flat surfaces pointed down.

They look real deal to me. It would be "my wife and me".

Excellent capture of some real ufo orbs. Well done

Amazing how you were able to capture them on camera

Looks like what I used to see in Redding Ca.

You anywhere close ?
