Scotland UFO - 9 mins of Daytime Video

Has anyone seen this one before? This is daytime footage, 9 mins of it! I believe it was filmed in Stirling City, Scotland.

The object is clearly disk shaped and metallic, with a nodule in the center. This is a quality video with zoom in and zoom out for reference.

The only other alternative I guess would be a balloon, but a balloon would've have drifted out of site in a hurry, yet this object seems to hover or move within the same patch of sky. To me this is no balloon.

At one point it can be seen turning and drifting over a roof and then back again. Balloons don't do that as far as I know.

I don't know, this one has me scratching my head.

The video was added to youtube back in June, but a couple of searches on ATS turned up nothing. So here you go.

It appears that the pilot of that craft must have been sipping some potent potables to be flying like that...

I got vertigo just watching the first few minutes of it. Will someone please notify the FAA to get this guy's pilot's license revoked please?!!

It's looking rather polymorphic too .... (((weird))).

Yeah no kidding. The maneuvers are definitely a bit awkward, almost balloon like, but I keep asking myself, wouldn't a balloon drift away? I mean I see a metallic disk, but not the movements of one or what I would imagine those movements to be.

Cheers.

...wouldn't a balloon drift away?

Not on a calm day.

My vote is silver mylar balloon.

Lol, I sure can't see that this is the newest trend in UFO CGI...

It does appear to look like it's a Lighter-Than-Air craft but then again, many UFO reports mention that this is what they kinda look like sometimes. But it's the way it changes its shape that's very typical of many UFO's, so maybe we really ARE looking at the genuine article. Who knows?
Great find!

Round 2 of probably many more to come on ATS for this video previously discussed HERE found using ATS search "Stirling UFO". Also, Youtube search Brian McPhee for more videos from same guy.

My initial reaction was a helium balloon, just cos it looked like one being blown in the wind.
That being said it looks a bit too thin from the side view to be a balloon.

It looks like one of these:

LostMind,

Thank you. I searched for stirling ufo but didn't come up with the thread you provided. I'l read thru that thread to see what was said.

My apologies for the dupe everyone.

Some nice footage and GREAT camera work.

I considered it to be a balloon until the lights happened and that it looked far too thin from the side. However its still 50/50 because of this:

"The Summit has the capacity to carry a color micro video camera, light kits, a bomb drop system, and display huge logos. This airship is the answer to any company's Guerilla marketing campaign."

Lights explained. Shape explained - duh.

Anyway I'm no expert on aviation physics (if thats even the right word for it).

Ah yes, the Summit RC aircraft. Netstriker posted the same link above as a possibility of what we're seeing in this video.

But who's spending $5000, USD? Not to mention another $300 to have it shipped internationally. That's alot of dough for someone in Scotland to drop on some rc balloon.

Hey guys: The item that sells for so much is only 8 feet across. Eight feet. That means that it cannot be the object seen because at that distance, no 8 foot wide object would be seen as that size. The size of the disc seen is at least 30-40 feet in diameter as seen at that distance. Watch the zoom pull back and see how far away they are: An 8 foot flying motorized thing like that would not only appear different, but would act differntly as well...and you cannot escape the size difference..it is substantial.

Whatever that thing is I'm sure Brian McPhee filmed it in all innocence thinking it's a genuine UFO, and it very well could be a genuine one. Thumbs up to this dedicated bloke for taking the time to keep his eyes on the skies, capturing whatever might pass overhead. Can't wait till I can afford a good camera.

It doesn't move like a UFO (alien that is). Looks like a baloon to me. Wow.

What a fantastic video. What really amazes me about this is that the craft looks like a circular disk but then there are times when it seems like the rear of it becomes straight. I wonder if this is because the craft is bending spacetime behind it and the warping causes its light to be bent. The flashes of light occur when the energy output goes up as it performs manouvers. Fantastic video. There is no way this is a balloon, it's a very tired and unimaginitive conclusion. How many flat balloons have you seen?
I do wonder why it just flys around in one spot though.

My vote is that is another poorly made hoax.

The way the 'craft' bounces like a child's toy suspended on a string was my first indication.

I have seen many craft in the past both man made and flown as well as what I believe to be extraterrestrial. Nothing that ridiculous.

And the music reminded me of a low budget porno.

the way it moves looks very much like it is just being blown about...

it is far too thin to be a normal mylar balloon, but looks just like one otherwise...

My guess is a skinny mylar balloon manufactured to be a fake ufo balloon
(there are only about 200 different varieties of UFO mylar balloon.)

Gotta agree that the "UFO" looks like a large mylar balloon having slipped its tether and slowly deflating as it drifts across a relatively calm, sunlit sky. Great video, whatever it is, and thankfully not another 30 second blip, though that, IMO, does count against it being anything other than manmade.

Where're, say, are the odd, physic-defying movements?

When does it suddenly stop and reverse its trajectory, fast?

When does it display undoubtedly intelligent manouevers, instead of a gentle, uncontrolled tumble?

Where is the multi-coloured light display, instead of the sun glinting from glorified tin foil?

There is nothing in the video that suggests the object is anything but a big fat balloon.

I may be coming across as a debunker, but believe me I'm not. I want, as much as any other serious believer in UFOs, to see the defining video that will justify putting up with all of the name calling from smart-bottomed know-it-alls. This video just isn't it, and that makes me sad.

Then again (and here comes the devil's advocate in me) who can say what behaviour an alien UAV would exhibit?

Score
1 for the Mylars
0 for the UFO'rs

Ok, so here's what it could be...
Meet the Anti-gravity throwing disk.



And here's the website, check out the videos.

They say indoor, but this thing looks just like what could be present in the Scotland vid.

It seems that I'm debunking my own stuff here.

Well, we can all become "UFO pilots"...

www.shop.com...

With seeing all of this...it seems that most of the footages could be home grown UFOs LOL

No wonder people add all that cheesy music to their footage...so people wont hear the little RC motors. LOL

And check out this video of a homemade one:

More homemade UFO with colored lights too:

I never even knew there were remote control UFO TOYS. LOL

Now people are going to have to try harder to get better footage of the real thing....because now everyone will be thinking "remote control"
