[VIDEO] UFO sighting: Eerie, alien object in the clouds filmed

Even as UFO sightings are raging, one intriguing 'UFO video' flew high on Facebook. Many viewers leaped to the conclusion that the strange-looking object near the clouds that was filmed during a lightning UK storm could only be that of an alien.

Only a few days after a UFO that seemed to be as big as the "size of a car" got caught on film, it just hovered over a Cheshire family home. A father of four, Chris Henry, spotted the jet-black right-angled object appearing in the sky near Manchester.

It was filmed by the owner of the house, who was waiting for a friend to pick him up in Macclesfield. However, he could not really explain anything about the video when he played it back later.

Henry said: "I just thought: 'What is that?' It was like an egg-timer shape. I filmed it from my doorstep but it was only when I got back home and zoomed in on the video that I saw how bizarre it was."

The 27-year-old UFO writer affirmed that though he has seen hundreds of UFO videos, he has never seen anything like this one. Within the website of The Norfolk UFO Network, he did not seem to belong to any of its categories.

After the UFO was captured on video it zoomed into Facebook, even as the sky was split by lightning while a wind funnel was whizzing and whipping up a storm.

Though he captured it first in the bottom of the video frame, it soon went up, while lightning raged across the sky. A sort of funnel cloud emerged in the center of the storm and made way to debris. However, many alien nuts felt that it looked more than just debris.

Henry said: "I posted the video on Facebook and people said it could be a drone or hot air balloon but it was too high up - it was the height planes fly at, and it was miserable weather too. It looked nothing like a drone either as drones have wings and propellers. No one's been able to put forward any sensible suggestion as to what it was."

It was a post that was shared multiple times on Facebook, with some viewers suggesting that it might have been an aircraft, while others said that it was a bird. Yet there were many believers who were firmly convinced that it was an alien. One of the worriers are edgy about the alien spacecraft controlling the entire world.
