so, today I went to see my girlfriend for lunch, I saw this shining silver object in the distance, it was moving really strange, up and down, side to side quite quickly, but was more or less staying in the same area. It looked like a classic saucer.

I hopped in my car and drove in the direction of the object. It was a silver kite that got stuck on a power line.

the moral of the story- given the chance, personally investigating ufo's is more important than capturing a video.

if I just stood there and took a cell phone video i'd have 4,000 views on youtube right now, but I decided to get closer and investigate.

I know the truth about that particular sighting, now I move on and continue watching the skies.

If only more people would trouble themselves. Seems it's much more fun to pretend that it was something than to prove that it wasn't....

Very true.. Always good to check things out first rather than run around screaming the sky is falling..

Would be fun to find a kite like that to fly..
But will settle for making and launching lanterns as do now - though tempted to write ATS on the next batch that launch to see if anyone film them and claim they are u.f.o's
