Full Description & Details

ON AN EVENING AROUND 1961, MY BEST FRIEND AND I WERE WRESTLING IN HIS FRONT YARD AS THE SUN WAS ALMOST GONE. THE TEMPERTURE WAS MILD AND THE GRASS WAS GREEN AND FRESH WHICH SHOULD PLACE THE SEASON NEAR SPRING. HE WAS MUCH BIGGER THAN I AND HE HAD ME ON THE GROUND AND I WAS FACING UP. THERE WERE NO CLOUDS IN THE SKY . I WATCHED A LIGHT ON THE EAST TO SOUTHEAST LEAVE THE EARTH AT A SPEED AND MANEUVERABILITY, THAT TO THIS DAY, EVEN IF THE US GOVERNMENT SAYS THEY COULD DO, BELIEVE ME, THEY CAN NOT. IT IS LIKE HAVING A HUMAN BEING ON FOOT, (THE US GOVERNMENT) RACE A FULL BLOW FUEL INJECTED RACE CAR (WHAT I SAW), IN A QUARTER MILE RUN, THEN SUDDENLY STOP, WITHOUT SLOWING DOWN, TAKE A 90 DEGREE RIGHT AT SAME SPEED, AND THEN 90 DEGREE LEFT AN WITHIN TOTAL OF 3 SECONDS FROM START WAS GONE AS IF IT BURNED OUT, YET IT DID NOT TO MY EYES. AT THAT SPEED IT SIMPLY WENT OUT OF SIGHT, SECONDS ARE AS ONE ONE THOUSAND, TWO ONE THOUSAND. THREE ONE THOUSAND............GONE. UNFORTUNATELY MY FRIEND DID NOT SEE IT. YET AT THAT TIME I MENTIONED IT TO HIM.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Glowing red solid oval. About twice as wide as tall. The object could hover, move side to side and move at amazing speeds. It was brighter than the brightest ship lights off the Gulf Coast of MS by a factor of 10. Not having any reference other than clouds to mark the distance from shore makes estimating the size of the object. While viewed on a 24" TV screen the object was about 1cm across. The widest lightning strike was about half that width.

Size of Object(s)

If I had to take a guess on the size, I would estimate about 25'-35' feet across and about 15' tall.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

Again a guess, but I would say about a half mile out and about 100'-200' above the water.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Cloudy with light rain and a strong lightning storm over the Gulf. Directly South of Keesler AFB Biloxi Mississippi.

Full Description & Details

After the purchase of a digital Cannon camcorder I decided to film lightning. The digital camcorder could film at 1000/frames a second and I decided to film lightning strikes out in the gulf. The camcorder was placed on a tripod and set to 1000 frames a second. At this setting only lightning would be picked up. Due to this I just set the focus out to over 1000ft and let the camcorder record until the power was empty. The next day I decided to copy the tape to VHS to play back lightning at very slow speed. While fast forwarding the tape I caught a glimpse of a flash of red. I rewound and found it. I played it at regular speed to very slow.

The object appeared to move very slowly over the water. It appeared to stop and then rapidly speed off up and to the West. When the video was played back at frame to frame the object was a oval about twice as wide as tall when viewed from the coast. As the object rapidly zipped out of view even frame to frame could not still the object. The lightning that was filmed had VERY detailed arcs of lightning out of the sides of the primary bolt. The frame to frame lightning was amazingly clear. During the filming the camera was on a tripod and stationary during the filming.

I was a member of the US Air Force at Keesler AFB at the time. I remember I took the camera and the tape to show my chief and officers in my department. The next piece of memory I had of the object was months later. The original tape 'labeled lightning' was recorded over with just a black screen. There was not a single part of the original footage left on the 9mm tape. I knew the only way I could even make future frame and slow motion footage was with the original. So I would NEVER have recorded over it. I also remember that when I seen the 9mm tape I thought to myself, "Why would I have recorded over the lightning." I never remembered filming a UFO. Two years later while unpacking I found a VHS tape with lightning from that night. I felt like, "Wow, I have some record of that amazing lightning show." Only when I seen the VHS capture of my original viewing of the lightning did I start to remember the events of the UFO and taking the leaving to take the film to my fellow workers. I watched that tape for hours after that trying to remember the WHY. Why didn't I remember. Why didn't tell everyone I knew. Why did I ever record over the original! So I felt with just a copy there was little I could prove. I felt that if I made a big deal about the whole event I would just be laughed at. I again forgot about the VHS copy.

A few years after that I again moved and watched what I had on various tapes. I again was amazed how I forgot about this tape and the footage. I quickly showed the tape to my friends at the time. Once again I forgot about the tape. I was watching TV at my parents house one holiday and I seen footage of lights over the Gulf of Mexico and said, "I have film from Biloxi of something that looks and acts very much like that FL footage!" Again I looked for the tape. I remember every single time I find it I tell myself, "Put this somewhere where I will not forget it." It never fails I forget about the tape. As I watched the Sci-Fi channel of UFOs I remember I have the tape. As I decided to post my experience on your site I again spent hours looking for the tape. I cannot find it once again. I have the ability to copy the tape to computer but never have. I have the ability to copy it to another VHS or DVD and I haven't. When I find it, I want to put it someplace I will not lose it and then forget about it. I can remember how to get to the old bicycle shop my grandfather purchased my first blue Schwinn bicycle when I was four. Try as I might, I cannot remember the tape or the location after just hours at times. The event of erasing the tape and losing it all the time is much more strange than the UFO. I do promise next time I find the tape, I will post it on this site before I put it away again. It is an old VHS tape almost 20 years old now but I will capture it for you.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

I have loved aircraft since I was a child. I watched air shows. I rode in a single prop plane when I was in grade school. My father was an Army Helicopter mechanic and have been around military aircraft for years. This object acted nothing like anything I have ever seen.

Witness Background

May share more if / when I find the tape.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I have been interested in UFOs since I was very young. The first sighting was when I was in 4th grade. I have read what little was published on UFOs. I felt much of the information was fiction. Some of the data seemed very conclusive. I believed in UFOs as objects from outerspace. My experience with the film of the object did not change this (1988).

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

At first we thought it was a helecopter. But the lights and lack of sound drew our attention. It was roughly 25 feet long and lights rotated around it's center. The lights prohibited our view of the body and we could only see dark space between the lights. It moved like a helecopter until it shot off like a silent bullet.

Size of Object(s)

I think it was about 25 feet long, but I could only see lights and shadow. The lights had no pattern, like an airplane has.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

At my last view, the object was 120 yards away and 200 feet up. The object made no sound.

Description of Area / Surroundings

It was suburban.

Full Description & Details

A friend and I were driving in a jeep one fall evening, in Southern Chester County,Pa. We noticed a strange light in the sky and followed it via winding country roads to a dominant hill, above a small housing developement. We watched an object hover roughly 200 feet above the developement for fifteen minutes. We couldn't see the body, but we could see lights rotating around a dark object, roughly the size of a tank. The lights didn't have a patern, and seemed to change color randomly. But the lights did seem to rotate around the center. We heard no sound, although we eventually got within 100 yards. It took off from a slow hover to amazing speed in an instant. It still never made a sound as we watched it fly to the horizen and disapear.

I never cared or believed before. Now I believe, but who can I tell who won't think I was crazy? My friend won't talk about it with anyone but me.

Other Comments

I have never been near any aircraft that was in operation, that made so little or no noise. As facinated as we were, neither one of us tried to get close to it on foot. I did not think I was afraid at the time, but I never felt like I wanted to get too close.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

almost a triangular shape from what i could tell, with almost an aura of a reddish blue mixture of lights emanating from it, it stayed in one spot and almost seemed to flip up and down

Size of Object(s)

about the size of a marble held in my hand with my arm extended to its longest in the sky.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

at least 5,000 ft ( a mile or so) in the air, and honestly not sure how far in distance.

Description of Area / Surroundings

it was a rural area, back country road. No known military bases near the area or power plants. Just a small farming community more or less on the rise.

Full Description & Details

red/blue sort of mixture of lights that hovered in one spot for approx. 4 minutes or so, then quickly and abruptly shot off eastward leaving almost a vaccuum in the sky from its velocity. shortly thereafter 2 apparent military jets fly off quickly in the same direction. There is no airbase or anything of the sort within 200 miles of here....so no idea what i saw.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Its quite possible it was a high tech military aircraft, but i almost doubt it.

I believe they are real...however i dont think they come from space, i think they are here on earth in the deepest depths of the ocean, which i always thought was why i hadnt seen one here in upstate new york, but my views have slightly changed now.
