Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Again, it was a very dark night but what I was able to determine is that the object was generally round in shape...possibly perfectly spherical if not for the lights on the outside. The lights were fairly bright, especially the "main light" which was pointing out at the horizon. The body of the craft appeared to be a dark color.

Size of Object(s)

Relatively, the object would be about 2 inches wide if you held out an outstretched hand and measured with your fingers. It was hard to tell, but I suppose the UFO was 50-60 feet in diameter. (spherical craft)

Description of Area / Surroundings

Somewhat of a rural area of western Palm Beach County. Not very far from urban setting. The immediate surrounding area is called "the acreage" all very large properties, some with horses or some farm land. No military bases in the area, and no power plants that I am aware of. There was no other structures near the craft other than trees.

Full Description & Details

My friend and I were driving on a road one night after school. At the time we were going to the Fire Academy together and I could see something strange off in the distance.

At first, it looked as if there was some electrical activity in the distance, as if there was some kind of power surge or a damaged breaker or something?

As we got closer (about a 1/4 mile away) it appeared that there was someone doing work on an electrical breaker or something. It looked like there was a very large light, high up in the air (it was hard to tell from that distance but I would guess it was about 150 feet above ground)

Below this light, which was pointing straight out at the horizon, there was rapidly blinking or flashing light below.

All of a sudden, as we got close, the UFO made a 45 degree rotation, pointing it's light straight at the ground. Keep in mind, the craft did NOT shift up, down, left or right. Almost as if it were fastened stationary on a pole, only able to rotate on a stationary axis. After it pointed it's main light straight at the ground, the electrical activity below stopped abruptly and ALL of the lights on the UFO shut off. Thus we were no longer able to see it.

At this point, I looked at my friend in utter shock and said something along the lines of "OH MY GOD, DID YOU SEE THAT?!" my friend HAD indeed seen it but was not nearly as excited as I was. In fact, he seemed withdrawn and in instant denial. Later that evening, he denied seeing anything at all.

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

I have thought long and hard about what this thing could possibly be, and cannot explain it. I really believe this was a UFO.

Witness Background

I am currently a salesman for a company called Saveology.com. I am also a certified fire fighter and an EMT. I graduated high school and attended a community college before going to trade schools to get my job training. I am currently a 27 year old male, I am Caucasian, I am from Detroit, MI originally and have been in FL for a little over 6 years now.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I have always felt that there is probably intelligent life on other planets in other galaxies. I did not know very much about UFOs prior to my sighting, other than what I had seen on TV documentaries. After my sighting, I am far more interested in UFOs and have done a lot more research into the existence of extraterrestrials.
