UFO?

Channel: On the Scene

Location: Eugene, Oregon. Willamette St.

I was driving north on Willamette near Capella's Market a few weeks ago and I looked  out the window, looking west.  I  saw what looked to be fire floating in the air.  I was confusing and I asked my friend to look at what I was seeing and tell me what it was.  She saw it, couldn't tell what it was, and I grabbed my camera.  We pulled into a dentist parking lot near the Ems stadium and took some pictures and this video.  It was moving very slowly, and we could tell it wasn't a plane, because of the speed, it was more like hovering.  It was high up and I thought it was a hot air balloon just because I thought it was fire.  It was around 5-6pm.  We stayed for awhile trying to figure out what it was but ended up going on our way.  It was very weird and were just wondering what it was, or if anyone else saw it.

This would be an easy video to make all you need is one red led flashlight and a video camera out of focus Im not saying its fake, just that it would be easy to make.

OH MY GOSH! We saw it too! I told friends later that we saw it and they argued that if you call it a "UFO" then it's "identified" and therefore cannot be a UFO. So, what is it? An I FO? But it looked just like that--like a small hovering fire.

Plenty of people ARE lame enough to fake videos and film. However, looking at this video it doesn't look like it is faked. I'm not a specialist or expert, so it's just my opinion...

If you look close you can see something that looks like a tree or power line. anyone else see it? I don't think this is fake, I just don't know what it is.

Ok Big Foot has been reported on several occasions in Canada. As far as UFO's go pull your head out from under the sand they have been sighted all over the world on almost ever continent. You need to get a grip its not just a hat rack!

I saw this object you are describing last night (2/11/09), around 11:15p.m., coming in from the West towards Eugene, then it headed out South South West. Totally, a glowing object looking like it was on fire!!

9/11/09 I saw a simular object last night at around 7pm over hwy 512. I was on Hosmer Ave. in Tacoma and assumed it was just a helocopter. I became curious because of the way the object was moving and I didn't detect any sound? I have more details.
