What altitudes?

LETS BEGIN IF YOU actually looked closely you will see is full of the usual compression problems that ALL youtube videos suffer from coupled withe the fact THE IDIOT that filmed it went for IR mode most likely because the false colour hides what the object was DOH!

You think its passing through cloud!

Also when they make statements like I HAD A HUNCH I SHOULD TAKE MY VIDEO CAMERA.

YEH RIGHT

It has an interesting shape, which would be consistent with a lifting body aircraft:

Well, maybe it is the thousaonds of years old 15 tonn heavy Black Knight Satellite !

Lol , who knoWs .!

Erm...

www.youtube.com...

could be this, include camera blur and higher upper winds could drag this along at a fair speed.

Hate to tell you but it isn't a ufo, balloon, military drone, RC toy, Chinese lantern, or aircraft.

Do you believe angels exist?

Yet another UFO hoax that doesn't show the end of the video.. What are they trying to hide?

In this day an age, it seems that it is getting easier and easier to fool people into thinking something is a UFO.

I'm going to go buy a mylar balloon, put it in a trash bag, and then release it on a windy day, and film with an IR camera. I bet I get a million UFO believers bowing down at my feet.

For the chinese lantern club - are you willing to bet your life its a chinese lantern?
If not, then admit it may be something else.

By calling a definitive something, you leave no room for the possibility it may be something else. Not saying it must be a ET UFO but it could be.

There is no way to tell 100% what it is.

Those clouds look very low, and the object is well below them, therefore relatively small and slow moving. Since it's taken in infrared, what we're seeing is a heat signature. A very bright point, consistent with a flame, and a glowing ovoid, consistent with a plastic bag filled with hot air. A home-made plastic hot air balloon. Flipping a piece of film reverses both time and orientation. (Think about it.)

I disagree completly...

The cloud type/formations would indicate it was rather high Cirrostratus with the odd Altocumulus

Altocumulus


Cirrostratus


Check here


And here for Altitudes of formations


So we are talking between 6.500 ft - 20.000ft, that some huge chinese lantern wouldn't you agree? i mean if you watched the videos you will see the witness said in TEXT its very high also, and theres no questions its traveling horizontal through thos cloud formations at a much higher rate of speed than a Lantern would ive seen many and they travel much much slower than this thing, its aerodynamics & make up materials would simply rip it to pieces or at least doused the so called flame,

I live in the UK and for the past few months we have had broken sunshine all over and Temperatures hitting in the 80s-90s often the later, these cloud formations have been developing daily with the humidity levels very high also and good old high pressure dominating.

And to who ever said about the flame being visible on the lantern and the thing is all upside down, could it not be the SUNs reflection, reflecting of the metallic object as it always does?

This thing is HUGE or at least the same size if not bigger than a commercial airliner would look at a similar Altitude, IMO im saying bigger

IS CHINESE LANTERNS THE NEW SWAMP GAS?

Brit Warrior is 100% correct. I wish I had seen his post before I made mine. The altitude alone eliminates the idea that a Chinese Lantern could even be in the running as an explanation, PERIOD.

Now, he provided a list of clouds that are consistent with higher altitudes. And these altitudes would make it literally impossible for a Chinese Lantern to even come close to. Also, judging by the size of the clouds and the types of clouds that they are, you can get a general idea of the size of the object. Personally, I have never seen a chinese lantern come close to the size of a car, let alone the size of an airliner.

Its about time to put the stale, same old explanations to rest. For awhile there were actually fools trying to say that the Phoenix Lights were lanterns as well. Not only is that an insult to the people's intelligences who made that garbage up, but, its an insult to the overall intelligence of the human race.

One day, when something comes down that is definitive and cannot be wished away by silly explanations, there will be tons of people eating crow as opposed to feeding the public their same line of garbage that has persisted for over 70 years.

Its time to grow up people. There are things out there that cannot be explained by conventional logic. Science is discovering this everyday. In fact, science has observed many phenomena that they still haven't invented the mathematics that offers an explanation. But, isn't that human nature, to try to put everything in a nice and neat little box so that it doesn't confuse the masses or cause one to question the status quo?

So far, though...what has the status quo and American science done for the world as of late? Not much. We currently have an oil spill that we cannot contain (we can send a man to the moon but can't cap an oil well). We have sky spirals that have been blamed on failed missiles (everyone readily accepts this explanation when there have only been 3 spirals on record in the history of mankind, but, how many failed missiles to we also have on record?) We have earthquakes that are popping off right and left, sinkholes that have baffled the experts, an M82 Galaxy that has been sending a signal to earth that has breached the speed of light, an M31 Galaxy that is moving towards earth defying the cosmological principle of expansion, we have a president that is destroying our economy and everyone who is dependent on it, we just recently had a comet that is heading towards the sun that is bigger than the planet Jupiter which is also baffling scientists, we had an earthquake that knocked the earth off its axis by 2 degrees, our planet is now reacting against the plague of human waste that has been steadily destroying it for centuries, and we have solar activity which is beyond scientific capacity to explain its behavior. Not to mention, we don't even know what resides in the bottom of our own oceans because we don't have technology that can handle the extreme pressures of the massive depths that the ocean contains.

Now, with all of those limitations, are you really going to tell me that the average human actually has a clue as to what resides in the cosmos? Most people are too worried about themselves to even notice what happens in the blue skies above them, let alone have the ability to postulate what resides in the infinity of the Universe. So, quit using the same standard crap explanations to disavow everything that you don't agree with, chances are, you're dead wrong.

Namaste and Love

LOL, isn't that from the movie "Airplane"? I can't remember.

Funny skit.

See BritWarriors post of the types of clouds that are witnessed in the video. Then compare the object which is right next to these clouds. These clouds only exist at certain altitudes which is rather apparent from the video.

Once you have looked this up and if you still cannot figure this out with common sense, then ask me the question again and I will try to explain it to you.

Nonetheless, if you're dead set on disbelieving that this object is nothing different from a plastic bag, as you stated, then no amount of logic will change your mind.

YEH RIGHT

Yes it passes though the small clump of cloud, watch where it is at the very start of the video (the small cloud), its directly in its path of the objects direction, it then passes right through or over it, watch the shadow cast on the object, i have stated the time in above post.

I HAD A HUNCH I SHOULD TAKE MY VIDEO CAMERA.
Have you never had a hunch on a game result before and won? i read & hear storys like this in the papers every day, its nothing more than coincidence, but if your going to base your entire Hoax claim on this your on the wrong forum my friend, its Irrelevant...

So the camera guy has filmed in IR since this is the only part of your post which is relevant would you care to put your skill to work and see wot we are all missing the camera man said it was RED if im not mistaken???.

IMO That would makes it more interesting!

Brilliant film

IMHO its a kids silver helium balloon.

I believe this guy as I saw the same thing right over in North Wales and took a picture too. It was quite high up so I had to zoom in on my mobile but the night was fairly clear here so I got a good view and It was not like anything I had seen before.

Looks to me like a silkworm on acid.

At no point does it pass through any cloud. It stays in front of the clouds the whole time. There is a moment when the camera is zooming where it goes out of focus. If it passed through the clouds it would disappear from sight completely.

Off the top of me head i would say its a polce helicopter at night with their ir on
or search light on.

I flipped and reversed the video for you guys... This way you can see how it actually could just be a chinese lantern.
