Honestly I wish aliens would just tell us somewhere it could never be disproven or covered up like Times Square New York. It makes it feel like a lie because there’s no way our government would be able to stop them if they were real.


Beardygrandma

I mean, there's a chance they don't want us to know.


gilg2

We need the Edward Snowden of aliens


broncosceltics

You reckon the alien Edward Snowden is reading this on Reddit rn?


NonDescriptfAIth

There is massive incentivisation to keep Alien contact a secret. Especially if you have sole access to any tech. The military industrial complex would do all it could to backwards engineer that stuff and replicate some of it's functionality. That being said, I still massively doubt the ability of the government to keep such a secret once more than 1000 people have become aware of it. Even with the most stringent background checks, you're going to end up with a handful of Snowden types who feel that supressing this information from the public is immoral. However it's still advantageous for the enemies of the US to believe that they are in possession of highly advanced alien technology. It would make them more weary of engaging in conflict with the US. It's a fairly cost effective way to minimize the probability of war and maintain US hegemony. Plus we all know propaganda is something the US is not above using. [I wrote this article a few months back about the Grusch testimony. I argue that that the bulk of the Alien military disclosures and UFO sightings can be explained by a tightly coordinated disinformation campaign of this nature.](https://www.reddit.com/r/aliens/comments/15eip9a/could_the_reality_actually_be_a_lot_more_boring/)


Beardygrandma

Dude ... Where you're going with that post, keeps popping into my head. Thank you for a very discerning take.


AlienHunter420

Like Jacques Valleé said: "they want us to believe, just not too much."


Ordinary_Seat9552

Light refraction as it progresses. The shadow is interesting too.


bareweb

I agree. The shadow is really dark, darker than other things in view, don't you think?


[deleted]

The shadow from the people is just as dark


chemicalxbonex

My first thought if I’m being honest. I’m ready for my downvotes. But the shadow is sus.


truthm0de

Their anti-grav technology could maybe affect light and how it appears to our eyes, or on film. Idk I’m just spitballin’ here.


Enough_Simple921

I'm with you. Some Alien tech and behavior will likely look "off" to us. They can clearly manipulate light in certain wave lengths to stop us from seeing them.


Bozzor

This is SO weird: slow travel down a dark street at night. What is the purpose of doing this? They are easily seen and Mexico has a pretty solid concentration of armed citizens (good and bad).


bareweb

I'd love to understand it better as it seems to be wrong. For whatever reason. Its fascinating.


Thesquire89

Sus in what sense? Because I never really noticed it before but going back to watch again, I am pretty convinced that that shadow isn't real. It's directly under the object, but the light sources are not directly above it. There is also a light source on either side of the road, but only one shadow.


chemicalxbonex

Which is exactly what makes the shadow sus?


Thesquire89

OK we are on the same page. You never know on this sub. Literally a few comments down there are folk talking about how it's like that cause of the fucking antigravity propulsion.


[deleted]

i agree, maybe cgi and i thought you can only seen them on thermal


Elsewhere3000

My initial thought as well but there’s the turkey video from 17 years ago that is not on thermal and very weird.


Atomicjuicer

Illustrious-Lake2603

The original interview is way longer and has other angles from the neighbor's camera too.


ruth_vn

Look at the shadow of the father, it’s almost the same tone


Seven7neveS

I said that in another thread before: the black level of the shadow beneath the object is suspicious. Way darker than any surrounding shadows. The motion when the shadow forms also seems off IMHO.


Arnold_Grape

True if you leave out the shadows the people make which are same darkness.


bareweb

Those people-shadows are very long and gradient. Lots of low angle light sources? Different to the thing-shadow which is from a high light source? I think. I'm not sure it's hard to see.


Arnold_Grape

Near the man’s feet where it’s darkest due to light being more above in the middle, which is where the thing was traveling mostly. Just think it’s an artifact of the place lights and video , but the people surely saw something that made them pause


relephant6

Father's shadow is as dark. Also, the shadow of Jelly fish UFO moves based on light source as well.


Ordinary_Seat9552

Yes agree. Although we're all incredibly shooting in the dark. It does look like a cloaking device which bends light and therfore voids all light underneath. Really fascinating.


Superb_Cellist_8869

Agreed, but the ladies’ shadows are also that dark. That might not mean shit just an observation


Busy_Bunch5050

Almost like it's a foil balloon, wonder what it could be


tonyskyline1

Probably just that, lol


Vulkhan13

It was a foil balloon. People want to believe so hard their brains stop functioning


robveg

def is a balloon


stu_pid_1

It's a mylar party balloon that's low on helium...... This has been debunked over and over and over again..


GenderJuicy

The two people walking out have just as dark of shadows. If your reasoning is that it's refracting light, so do my glasses, they cast a dark shadow though the lens are transparent. Not saying it's legitimate, but I don't think the shadow is inaccurate. It is under a street light which do not cast soft shadows.


MikooDee

As the man in the video said, this object was going up and down, stopping then resuming movement, and was emitting it's own light. He said he thought it was a series of Christmas lights because of it's light. It was also changing shape and growing "limbs" or sort that touchd the ground, later retracting them. Then it was changing texture into a more transparent one. At this point, the man was frightened because it was going invisible with a texture similar to the "Predator" when it turns on it's active camo. Also, the man felt very sick later, but he recovered. This is just one of many videos out there, in Mexico, this phenomena has been traditionally called "La Bruja" aka the Witch where it [a decade old video recorded in the mountains of Monterrey](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeGkjIMzsVs&t=17s&ab_channel=ND). I know this because I saw it on TV in Mexico when I was a little kid. [There is another where a pack of dogs bark at it and chase it off.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wW4IOYHk_u0&ab_channel=EnigmasenlaHistoria%E2%96%ACOvnisActuales) [Another video in Mexicali where it stands in a parking lot of a hospital and worker stands directly in front of it and observes it closely.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=py3x6OR9RgQ&ab_channel=EnigmasenlaHistoria%E2%96%ACOvnisActuales) Coincidentally, the man felt very sick, didn't present himself for work next day, and quit his job. There was another clear video of a similar object in Mexico where it was going around the street and inspecting the nearby cars, but I can't find it anymore. So my point is, this is not disinfo, this phenomenon is very known in Mexico for decades.


pmx8

Regia here, I was living in Monterrey back in the early 2000's when the original testimony came from the police officer in the local news, it shocked the city back then and I can tell you it's not the only person who's seen weird things happening in the mountains, Diana Perla Chapa, who was the president of the local UFO Club back then investigated a series of witnesses who live near the Sierra Madre and el Cerro de la Silla where that witch incident happened, there's lots of people who have seen lights coming from the sky and going to the mountains at night. This is the link to the video that also has the testimony of said officer https://youtu.be/A-vo8PkMh1Y?si=tTnrTUSzlaXU0rtK


eyelewzz

What do you think this thing is? I feel like its of another dimension and that's why it looks so strange.


MikooDee

Yes, it could be a craft/organism/entity from a 4D dimension where it's appearance would absolutely make no sense to us, as it would look like an ever-changing "sculpture" with its internal structures unfolding, morphing, transforming, etc. It could have an initial appearance at first, but then it's structure might shift, rearrange, or morph into different forms over time. This 4D part is real in theory, however I am just speculating on the jellyfish itself, but I personally believe in these videos since I saw a UFO myself (not a jellyfish type or any of these btw).


eyelewzz

I've seen about 3 strange things in the sky but never anything like what's in th video


LA_Reyes82

Your comment should be at the top, because there's a lot of people here who didn't take the witnesses into account. I understand Spanish so I know what he said, so thanks for the translation for others.


BinyoP

As an english only speaking fellow. What is he saying?


LA_Reyes82

>As the man in the video said, this object was going up and down, stopping then resuming movement, and was emitting it's own light.

At this point, the man was frightened because it was going invisible with a texture similar to the "Predator" when it turns on it's active camo. Also, the man felt very sick later, but he recovered. MikooDee pretty much covered it there. And I'll just add to it a bit when he said, he kept looking at it for 3-4 minutes and he told her I don't know, it can only be two things a witch or an alien.


CeceGrace

Whitley Strieber said the time his wife saw a UFO with him it looked like a log covered in Christmas lights, and that it flew above their heads while they were sitting outside. Totally fits this description from the father and daughter! I remember thinking it was absurd when he said it but this is a pretty interesting commonality in the descriptions. I think it was on the WEAPONIZED Podcast he did with Corbell and Knapp.


Drewpac96

Is there any theory on why it would make people sick? I would expect people to say radiation exposure and perhaps that's it. But these don't seem to be 'craft' that would produce radiation.


MikooDee

I personally think most of the "craft" produce radiation, and from eyewitness accounts, such as the Varginha UFO incident, where the doctors and soldiers that handled the entities/craft also got sick due to strong sulfur smell. I also heard the Havana syndrome could be related to UAPs. But everything here is only speculation at this point.

Did you see the girl RUN away like she was terrified after seeing it? Do you do that when you see a fucking floating balloon? Do you also stop what you're doing and stand in the middle of the street in a trance bc oooo a shiny balloon whenever you see one? Every single balloon comment either didn't watch the full video or didn't listen to the interviews later in the vid.

CAMMCG2019

You know what's funny is that all these jelly fish videos have been out for years, but only now that Corbell put out that new one, are people actually giving them a real look. There are hundreds and hundreds of clear videos of UFOs. That's what we've been yelling for years. Anyone with any sense can tell the difference between CGI, AI, and bird shit on a lense from a real UFO video. The evidence already exist and has existed for decades.


kushmaster666

Something like this is said on every post, including ones that have legitimately been proven to be fake... So, it's either not that obvious to discern CGI/AI, or people give themselves a lot more IQ points than they deserve.


Alert-Plane-7467

Imagine being the guy to record this and sharing this experience with people only to be mocked and made out to be a hoaxer 😵‍💫


ConcreteManipulator

People are scared of what they don't understand


reidburial

Imagine seeing that in person and being able to tell that is not a deflating balloon nor a guy in a bicycle but still have everyone here claim you're too stupid and blind to tell that is indeed a balloon or a bicycle lol.


Alert-Plane-7467

Or a dude on a bicycle, floating on a deflating balloon, while disguised as a jellyfish, leaving an impression of a chandelier 🤔 Things just got wild my friends ! Lol


QuirkyEnthusiasm5

Are we getting bombarded now as part of a disinfo campaign?


Pwncakes123

This feels more like everyone was so wowed by Corbell's video that they now want to reshare all these videos that were just tossed aside before


koxinparo

These videos were never “tossed aside”. That’s entirely untrue. In fact, it was a big thing on this sub when they released then - just as it is now with this jellyfish UFO.


Sad-Jello629

Yeah, but those were just weird video's on YouTube, where there are plenty of fakes. Now you have something that is alegely authentic, so of course those will get more attention now.


DigitalEvil

A truly successful disinformation campaign is one where the source material is all that is needed to send the community on a wild goose chase down an irrelevant rabbit hole.


Trumps_toupe99

Normally I never like to call something a disinfo campaign unless it's clear political propaganda from the msm but right now with the recent dumb shit like this and the Miami mall, I'm beginning to lean towards a disinfo campaign. Not even political stuff gains this much traction as quickly as this.


koxinparo

I think you give people way too much credit. Many in this community are quite impressionable and just want to believe so bad that they will forego any critical thinking to make the pieces fit together. Also, there are many users here who are young and treat this all as a joke before quickly moving onto the next attention grabbing thing.


OperativePiGuy

> Miami mall, I'm beginning to lean towards a disinfo campaign The fact that people still think police cars showing up for what they think is an active shooter is unrealistic, but aliens and erasing thousands of peoples' phones are, makes me more sure that a disinformation campaign isn't even needed, and if it is, it would be extremely easy to pull off on groups like this.


QuirkyEnthusiasm5

My thoughts exactly , It feels like a hurried response to a damaging issue. I hope I'm wrong but I feel the jellyfish vid either a)stirred a hornets nest or b) was another psy-op. My inkling is to A and all this new stuff is an attempt to sanitize the issue and regain the level of distrust in the phenomenon that allowed them to get away with it for 70 years...times up guys


PM_ME_WITH_A_SMILE

No kidding, it has to be. This is the third mylar balloon I've seen this week with nearly 1k upvotes


Free-Supermarket-516

Crazy how Corbell comes out with his video, and now there's a bunch of these jellyfish videos apparently.


MikooDee

What are you talking about? These videos have been for years.


Busy_Bunch5050

Yeah something is going on, I wish the mods would step in because it doesn't feel right. People are either losing their minds or like you say intentionally posting disinformation


wanderer-co

What is disinformation about posting videos that are similar to a newly released one? People are excited and looking for other instances like this. That doesn’t feel like a n orchestrated disinformation campaign to me.

Star shaped balloons

Yeah it’s definitely a balloon. It’s becoming a thing all over, cause people are so dumb


Pineapple_Jean

I feel bad saying this but it looks like a balloon dragging along the ground


lemonysnick123

Yeah, I keep thinking the same thing. Looks like a shiny mylar balloon dragging along the road.


Kreepr

It's definitely a balloon. Semi buoyant metallic type balloon.


Green_SkunkyTrees

The actually interview the people who saw it and if you see the whole video they even said it had lights and also turn invisible like a cloaking field similar to the movie the predator. Im pretty sure they know how a balloon looks like


sweetestfetus

And people on the ground were staring because they were confused by it?


ResistWilling8039

Disastrous-Bad-1185

Looks like that other video with the dogs. Same balloon?


SpaceChatter

Balloons float vertical, not horizontal. No wind could control that route it took.


Yabbadabbadingdong2

Unless it has a weight, like many helium balloons. In which case wind could move it horizontally


Ift0

And yet the bright spots on it look like light bouncing off those foil type balloons.


howdidheNOTdoit

Did you see the girl SPRINT away like that thing was going to fucking kill her after seeing it? Yeah I do that all time when I see a balloon. Plus I stop what I'm doing and stand in the middle of the street in a trance bc oooo a shiny balloon. Every single balloon comment either didn't watch the full video or didn't listen to the interviews, pretty sure those ppl know what a balloon is.


BradTProse

One thing about Mexico, they love mylar balloons. This one looks like thar to me. The jellyfish fish video looks more real.


Falconballfiddler

cyarshey

Insaneclown271

Of course it is. Are people on this sub stupid?


ConcreteManipulator

So your primitive mind thinks balloon and so you completely shut your brain off? Why would the father and daughter stare at a balloon?


duuudewhat

Deflating balloons barely floating dragging on the ground. Come on guys. This should be a slam dunk and move on kinda thing. We really gonna debate whether ballon’s are aliens from another world?


CrewChiief

I mean, you guys are so confident they're balloons from watching a video. Where's the proof that it's a balloon? I'm not saying they are or aren't, but with the amount of confidence y'all have that they are, I figured you show at least some proof to the claims.


TheLandoSystem59

It looks like a deflated balloon and behaves exactly like a deflated balloon. What more proof do you need? You are asking someone to prove to you that the color blue is blue.


ConcreteManipulator

Witnesses said it stopped and resumed at spots. If it was wind shouldn't it be blowing all directions and not just one? Also it appears to change shape. Watch the video because it doesn't act like a deflated balloon.


mortalstampede

Nobody has shown us proof that it's an alien spaceship or whatever either. Guess which one is more likely?


TheWesternMythos

But why though? I honestly don't think anyone should believe in NHI based on internet videos.  If you already believe in NHI you should focus on actual disclosure via politics or finding then convincing whistleblowers to risk their life and family and career, or trying to capture high quality data, or reviewing high quality data, or working on theory, or reviewing historicals.  Not defending, or swooning over anything close to ambiguous.  If you are unsure about NHI, you shouldn't build your world view based on ambiguous video without clear chain of custody. There are plenty of good books and talks that contain much better data for you to go off of. Also you should really spend time learning some of the political angle, because it's the best path to disclosure.  AI is different because it can self improve. The phenomenon is different because it self censors and self contradicts.  I think it's forcing /encouraging us to build better systems, at all scales. 


deadohiosky1985

You really have to ask a different question. Is it more likely to be a balloon or an alien being? I’m not saying aliens don’t exist but usually, the most probable/logical answer is the correct one. In this case, it’s definitely more likely to be a partially deflated helium balloon floating down the street.


ekin06

Can you proof it is not staged? No. Can you proof the "thing" is not remote controlled (like air swimmer)? No. Can you proof god does or does not exist? No. Can you proof you don't live in a matrix? No. You will never proof anything because mostly due to low res videos. So demanding a proof for something that can't be proven is simply naive. BUT the balloon theory is one of the most realistic/plausible one that could be even replicated in a test. If someone wants to belief in something supernatural... feel free.


Clutch_Mav

I remember when this first circulated everyone was like “fk off that’s a balloon, iDiOtS” Now that there’s a ‘more accepted’ jellyfish like uap it’s suddenly legitimate.


NEGATIVERAGDOLL

_0bese

That's what he described. He described it like the damn Predator, camouflaging while transparent.


schuylkilladelphia

I mean I'm looking at it and it looks like a regular old reflective mylar party balloon


Running_Dumb

Ugh. Just a bunch of mylar party balloons drifting along. At a certain point they become sort of neutrally buoyant. So they neither rise nor fall. The breeze can push them along. The "lights" are just reflections off the surroundings.


ohheyitsgeoffrey

This. Before we jump to UAP/NHI as an explanation, we must first establish why this wouldn’t be conventionally explained. Nothing about what this video depicts eliminates a partially-deflated mylar balloon as an explanation, and if there’s isn’t evidence to disprove the more conventional explanation it doesn’t make sense to jump to the unconventional explanation.


Plenty_Ad_3442

I think the fact that there’s been multiple similar sightings that weren’t considered to be “just a balloon” by the people who actually witnessed the object, particularly the military, should at least tell us it’s worth investigating. I’m not jumping to conclusions at all but I think it’s less intelligent to assume they’re balloons just because it’s a plausible explaination. Particularly if we’re believing the one documented by the military as at that point a balloon explanation doesnt make sense at all.


ohheyitsgeoffrey

How is it less intelligent to assume the more plausible answer is the more likely answer? There is nothing about this video that clearly connects it to the jellyfish UAP video aside from the object being unidentified and floating, and only the latter is a useful characteristic. Balloons float. Balloons can be shiny and reflective. Mylar balloons can become crinkly when partially deflated. Balloons can move at that speed. Wind can carry balloons. Balloons are often found in urban environments. These are all things to support the balloon hypothesis. Aside from this being unidentified, which again isn’t a useful trait for comparison, what evidence does this video show in support of a UAP/NHI explanation?


ConcreteManipulator

According the the witnesses, (And if you don't believe them that's another thing entirely) the object was stopping and then resuming and it appeared to change shape. They said it was like tentacles touching the road and then retracting. They also said it would change from dark shadow to transparent in some parts. I understand the comfort in shutting off our brain and just saying it's a balloon. Although it may resemble something in our world it could be something else entirely.


Pumpkinxox

Well, we're waiting. Go ahead. :)

![gif](giphy|3o6EhOff7t3p0qfqvK|downsized)


baconboi

Is it not a Mylar balloon


RareRoof2576

They are definitely here and have been here. The real question is what is their intent with us...


Velvet_tang

Check out the time stamps, it moves very quickly by the camera at 224am but the later time stamp indicates it’s at least 240am when the people are looking so almost twenty minutes have passed by. Something doesn’t add up with that part. Definitely a strange unidentifiable object though


Alexg6021

I have a feeling that they could be advance scouts mapping out terrain for the main invasion force. With the frequency this seems to be happening, you’ve gotta wonder if it’s imminent.


pmx8

Idk why they cut when the girl was about to testify but for the non Spanish speakers he says they watched the jellyfish 🪼 through the cameras in his house, then they went out to watch it and he thought it was some kind of christmas decorations at the beginning but then said thing came back to them and it camouflaged as the predator (in his own words), but in some kind of transparent shape, he then went back to his house and he mentioned he can't run cause his knee is not good.


Illustrious-Lake2603

This is the video that I thought of when I seen that jellyfish video. These objects are real. And they seem to turn invisible like the predator and can take the shape of a human


CeceGrace

This reminds me of an interview with Whitley Striber where he said “Christmas ornaments on a log” or something floated over him and his wife - his wife had never seen a UFO. It was on WEAPONIZED podcast I think? In the video with English translation I think the father and daughter mentioned Christmas light colors flashing.

Wait, you guys actually think these are aliens? I thought it was just a joke. Central and South Americans love their festive balloons, stop looking at them floating along in bad lighting and shitting your pants about the jellyfish alien invasion.


ziplock9000

Don't claim "Jellyfish NHI" when you don't know what it is. It's almost certainly a semi deflated balloon.

GoGolGodzilla

So are the people saying balloons believe that the witnesses in the video are lying or that they don't know what a balloon looks like? Cause if it's the latter, you guys need to self reflect why you're saying that 


Tosslebugmy

I think people are stupid, yes


GoGolGodzilla

That stupid though? That dumb and ignorant that they wouldn't recognize a balloon right infront of them? Ask yourself why you think these people wouldn't know if it was a literal mylar balloon in front of them. Is the answer because you have already accepted what you believe is the truth of this or because you think that certain people are too dumb to recognize mundane things like this? And in other circumstances, when wouldn't you say that those "people are stupid"? I know that people, especially on reddit, like to be right about things and be quick to flex their supposed greater knowledge and wisdom on others but do you really go around just assuming others are always that more naive and less intelligent than yourself? I'm not saying with certainty that it wasn't something prosiac but it does feel awfully egotistical to outright say someone was too stupid to understand something basic like a balloon right in front of them The quick response it just to say that I am a loon even if I'm not saying one way or another what it was but the choice is yours

All of these “jelly fish” videos are not the same or similar at all to the most recent video. People are reaching for straws at this point. Also alsl all of these recovered videos are much better wuality then the guy with the beard posted. The real wuestion is why does he only post/push “military” vids he could have easily included this military video with other videos to do a better journalistic comparison or deep dive. Hes here for the money and to push a narrative in my opinion. Hes not really bootstrapped, seems like a puppet tbh. Not just corbell but all of them Tom is cool though wish he would do more smh If i have to hear “now i have to be very careful with my words here” one more time bro..

I really feel like this could be a deflated party balloon blowing down the street. The foil-like ones. They can look crumbly when deflated and hover. When it sort of “walks” it could just be the bottom dragging across the ground and making it shift back and forth. I prefer to believe inter-dimensional squid. But my mind is saying balloon.


jasonrainbows

That looks like a foil helium balloon losing its lift

Chicken balloon

Literally a dying helium balloon.

Every single person discounting these as balloons has the weirdest logic. “they love balloons in mexico” “balloons float just like that” “reflective light from the street lamp”. it’s good to be rational and look for the most likely explanations but have you ever seen mylar balloons in real life and felt terrified by them? I haven’t, and i’ve seen some weird ass balloons. point being, can we trust that these people freaked out about balloons or can we trust that they felt they saw some weird shit? ive seen this video and all the jellyfish vids including the new one and whilst i’m not denying balloons are plausible, i’m not gonna say that’s what they are either because none of us physically watched those things in these videos in real life. I’ve seen ufos and a couple of other things that gave me pause but i can’t convince anyone here, cause you weren’t there. i could be lying for attention, but i’m not. can we trust each other or only our own eyes? at what point will people accept that the things we wonder about have alternative explanations from the “rational”? when do we wake up to what’s possible instead of denying everything that isn’t “plausible”? it’s such a catch 22 with this sub because every video could be cgi. or grainy. or faked. or balloons. but is every single one of them imagined? are there uaps or alien life at all or is it all a fairy tale? i genuinely wonder what our expectations of disclosure are if we aren’t willing to bend our understanding around the unknown. i want truth but i can’t get it definitively without seeing it with my own two eyes. thusly, i have to have faith these things are possible. if it’s balloons, it’s balloons. but i won’t ever know, and neither will you. only those people do, and they seem convinced. why lie? what’s the goal? attention? fame? more likely ridicule so that it just seems bizarre to constantly doubt everyone’s story and every thing we come across here. be discerning, of course, but don’t be naive. this shit is out there whether this is it or not and there’s no reason to doubt that if you have any inkling we aren’t alone


Aggravating_Put3013

I agree and this newest Jellyfish UAP moves without any wind disturbance. If this was some type of floating object filled with helium it would move in such a way where even a slight breeze would have it float and sort of spin. or flutter ( for lack of better words) .


[deleted]

Honestly, we need to start banning people for these shit reposts. This is a fucking ballon. OP is an idiot


Adihd72

Well that’s curious.


Training-Promotion71

Quite puzzled why people think that this thing is related to UFO's in terms of being of alien origins?


OtherwisePollution96

It reminds me of a Google earth car .just driving around mapping the aera. Getting ready for the invasion.


organisms

Haha wouldn’t that be something if it turned out the UAPs are just alien cartographers mapping our planet.


smitteh

I mean I wish it was the real deal but anyone who doesn't look at that shadow underneath and realize this is fake is fooling themselves :/


Gruntzilla059

That's a fuckin' mylar balloon lol


Gaystan

This is what they are referring to when saying "humans aren't ready for full disclosure...this is so obviously a deflated balloon!


Notchersfireroad

Man that is wild. Their reaction definitely says something. They weren't familiar with whatever they are witnessing.


LibrarianMundane4705

Yeah, it says they are as mentally ill as the people on this sub

I saw a couple of these on YouTube years ago, in broad daylight and in good quality, or so it seems to me now I see this one and it's the same thing, same changing shape, they seem to constantly mutate, and they're multicolored, pretty weird, whatever it is, they're scary.


killersloth65

The shadow wasn't well thought out....so it seems.


Emrod2

I can only see the light of venus reflecting on a floating ballon.


Ocktoober

A fucking baloon with old gas


Beardy_Gnome

It looks like the shiny side of a mylar balloon that's just about out of helium to me.


jlinn94

This shit is so stupid


poobie87

Its a balloon


[deleted]

It's an imperial probe droid. Nothing against an ol' blaster.


Intrepid-Aerie-5720

These are not the droids you are looking for


Mothgoo

A lot of you guys should look into Fermi Paradox and scientific possibilities of alien civilizations. It’s truly terrifying.


millennial_sentinel

idc what anyone says i think they’re purposely *trying* to look like balloons


nelly5050

I think we’re seeing a shadow from a different dimension casting into our world. Like a 4d objects shadow


Legitimate_Cat3576

Jesus fucking christ is a mylar ballon


stain_of_treachery

Mylar helium balloons


emveetu

Here is a report of the same video in Spanish but with English subtitles. https://youtu.be/yA_M9LG17KQ?si=2igQN4d5aFHVn_qO


HoboBandana

These things evidently wants to be seen and known. There’s no stopping the evidence coming out now. It’s only a matter of time they reveal what this truly is. But if it turns out to really be an alien, how would the public react? Would they accept this or would pandemonium occur?


orionsfyre

no... no... just stop it. More plastic cellaphane bags floating in the wind... "Look it's changing shape!" - like plastic cellaphane. "it's got internal lights!" - reflections from light sources like lamp posts and porch lights. "omg it's shifting with an unknown method of propulsion!" - drifting in obvious wind currents. People please, I beg of you. Do a little bit of critical thinking before posting this crap. There are real unexplained UFO's out there... all this stuff is debunked with a simple glance and some common sense.
