This video is short and sweet, very good quality, to good I think. I tried looking for more information on this one but couldn't find anything, I've got a cold at the moment and I can't seem to focus to well, and it's summer down here and it's hot as can be.
It is claimed to be about 15 meters in diameter, and it does look big, but at the same time it looks small. I can't tell.
EDIT: please read comments for more info. It was a hoax.
Looks very familiar, if i'm not mistaken it a RC controlled blimp that is being sold as a gadget in many online stores.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteHere's some information on this video cut and pasted from my database of infamous UFO videos:
This video is an Australian news report from 18 August 2003.
It shows a fake "ufo" created for a documentary shown on Channel 4 in the United Kingdom entitled "A Very British UFO Hoax", produced by Chrysalis Television.
The production company hired some special effects specialists (Cutting Edge Effects) to plan and build a 10 meter diameter saucer, based around a carbon-fiber skeleton covered with a Mylar skin. A balloon was filled with helium and small electrical motors were used to guide its motion.
The craft was flown over the English countryside on the night of 16 August 2003.

ReplyDeleteI like your blog a lot. I think we are interested in a lot of the same things. You should come check out Dr. Fong's House of Mysteries if you have a chance.
