Great video...

The crowd factor and their excitement seals the deal this is legit for me.

Thanks for sharing!

Looks like "lanterns" to me. Not saying they "are" but when 1000s of hoaxes out there are using them, single lights in the sky that float slowly/lowly across the horizon just can't be used to prove anything.

So...what is more likely? The 10,000th hoax created with lanterns that look identical to these? Or...this is the real deal alien crafts we ALL hope to see good images of?

Not saying they ARE NOT alien craft...just saying that if alien ships looked exactly like "blue birds", then you can't really invest much attention into every picture/recording of a blue bird being a UFO...cus really, there would always be way MORE blue birds then there would be film of real UFO-alien-craft-bluebirds.

Yknow?

If these are "not" lanterns...it will do no one any good, seeing as they behave, look and seem in every way to be lanterns.

Just my thoughts.

PS-In no way am I saying these are "without a doubt" lanterns, or that you wasted anyones time posting this. I enjoy seeing all these clips no matter what the deal turns out to be. S&F

Hi,
whatever it is, the reaction from the crowd is just beautiful.
Cheers

If those are "Chinese lanterns" they must be using a large heavy duty 12 volt battery and a xenon light bulb to be as bright as they are...

If aliens ever do decide to show themselves this is exactly the kind of reaction i hope humans will give them. I half expected people to be shooting into the sky but no!!!!!!

Anyway i personally believe them to be lanterns. Last week in the UK was bonfire night where everyone sets off fireworks etc. I saw 25+ of these lanterns through the night and they looked very similar

Regardless it is still a cool video anyway

Yes, and they must have some type of timer or remote control, in order to flash in intervals.

Oh, and they withstand rain as well, so they must be water-proof.

I can see it clearly, how the whole trailer park collectively decided to stage a funny UFO hoax with these special built chinese lanterns, only to get their 15 seconds of fame on youtube.

Great acting by the kids and the dogs, I almost fell for it.

Looks like floating lanterns and some type of strobe light set up on radio control to turn it on and off

The excitement of the people in the background made me get excited too! Great video OP!

How the people reacted makes me believe that those lights are not lanterns. Whatever they are, they put quite a show!

Holy freakin crap!

What an awesome video. the best one i have seen in a long time. wow.

that thing dipped, in less than a second. then stopped!

S&F!!

"They finally burnt out" LOL that explains it all.

These are definately lanterns and it appears to me that the people knew they were lanterns. The strobing could easily be a flame flickering around.

The lights burn out like a lantern would, and the formation seems to get messy near the end. Maybe a wind change?

I believe it is a hoax. I do not believe the people capture on film are aware it's a hoax, but some of the things that were said during the film lead me to believe that someone played a joke on them.


At 2:30 the following exchange happens...

Guy 1: "I'm from the area, I've heard about this for the longest time. I don't ever remember see anything."

Guy 2: "We saw these last year. We were here last year."

Guy 1: (Sounds like) "For World UFO Day you were here?"

Guy 2: "I haven't seen nothing for 10, 11 years.. then we came out here and we go "Oh my God.."

Guy 1: "It's almost like they are coming here to give us a show!"



I think this happened in Belleville, WI.

They seem to be lanterns or something likely(too slow and flash before dim). Not alien UFO! People seems to be acting and in the end they clap. listen 4:17 "watch the mothership" !? lool, its acting people

Making no judgment call on this vid... but on our objectivity, I just wonder if we would know the real thing if it jumped up and bit us in the butt... if that hasn't already.

Seriously. This happens with each and every UFO image and vid that comes along. The problem is that it is fuzzy or unfocused or jumping around. Then if there is a clear shot, it is too clear.

What exactly is the standard here? What is the definition of the genuine article?

Some logic and skepticism is healthy... but I'm not sure if we aren't just so plain scared of being wrong, we don't have a snowball's chance in hell of being right.
