July, 2008: Clear video recording of a cylinder-shaped unidentified object flying in the sky above Brean, near Burnham-On-Sea, Somerset, UK
Footage of what appears to be a UFO hovering above the British
coastline has caused a stir among experts.
The mysterious cylinder was spotted above a busy caravan park in Brean,
Somerset, on a rare sunny day last summer: Holidaymakers looked in
amazement as the object appeared in the clear blue sky and remained for
more than 10 minutes. One tourist had a video camera and managed to
capture its strange, erratic movements in the sky.
There are already a range of theories on what the object might have
been, with some believing it was a kite or balloon.
The footage has since been uploaded on to video sharing website
YouTube, where it has sparked fierce debate.
Users claim the object looks like a 'high altitude observation balloon
payload'.
However, UFO 'expert' Malcolm Robinson insisted the object was
'totally consistent' with other sightings: Mr Robinson, who runs UFO
group Strange Phenomena Investigations, said: 'This video of a UFO is
clearly very exciting.
'While UFOs are commonly thought to be spherical in shape, we receive
dozens of calls from people who have spotted similar cylinder-shaped
objects.
'There is, of course, an argument that this could be a weather balloon
or some other common object.
'But my research has shown that it is totally consistent with other UFO
sightings, none of which have been hoaxes or naturally-occurring
phenomena.'
It is not the first time a mystery object has been spotted in the skies
over Brean.
June, 2007 local coastguards were called out to search Somerset's
coastline after sightings of a mystery parachute and canister, which
were never found.
