An unidentified flying object was captured on a BBC webcam during a live news broadcast. The video, shown here, is accompied by “Is it a bird? Is it a plane? An unidentified flying object is spotted by a BBC Look North webcam.”.
Think they might have been right the first time, as it does look like a bird to me! Any thoughts?
On 22nd July, retired school teacher John Powell photographed an RAF Hercules coming in to land. The plane itself was not the target of his photograph though, rather it was the metallic grey object apparently following it.
The Ministry of Defence has stated that it will NOT investigate the UFO sighting, insisting that air space has “not been comprised”.
Under the Freedom of Information Act, we can now request copies of official documentation regarding any UFO sighting, so it will be interesting to see exactly why this one isn’t going to be investigated!
Came across this today – absolutely terrific example of Pareidolia:

“…Pavel Beran was returning home from a night out with his wife when he saw the UFOs on 14 February. ‘We saw two lights and then another two, one emitting a bright orange light, the objects then shot away into the distance in a westward direction. It all lasted about a minute’….”

I love watching videos of supposed ghosts, EVPs etc. on the internet but I’m MASSIVELY sceptical …. and this one is a reminder of WHY I’m so sceptical!
Supposed poltergeist activity video on Para-Tube.com.
The above video is labelled as a ‘University Research Video’. In reality, it’ s a clip from Ghostwatch, a BBC “mockumentary” shown in 1992. This serves as a reminder that you generally CAN’T verify the sources of any videos or audio clips you see online! It’s also not as hard as you might think to edit a video clip, add in some bumps and shadows, etc.
By sheer coincidence, I’m actually attending a lecture on 4th April from the writer of Ghostwatch so I’ll report back afterwards!
