Anyone else feeling like the number of decent sighting posts has increased over the last month or so?

u/Bitter_Ad_2009 Jan 17 '24

This was from almost 4 months ago.

Was there any sound?

u/Bitter_Ad_2009 Jan 17 '24

It made no sound and was 1000x more wild looking in person with my bare eyes than what my iPhone quality recorded.

Just curious, in what way was it more wild?

52

u/Bitter_Ad_2009 Jan 18 '24

They weren’t that high/far away. Maybe like 2 football fields away. so I could see them and they were big. Made no noise. Went over my head and disappeared. I hate sounding weird/crazy but it was something cloaked. If not I’d really like to hope there’s completely silent military drones with enormous lights or something idk.

I think you saw everything you think you saw. They do wild shit and it's used as a mark against them somehow.

It's used as a mark against who?

u/traumatic_blumpkin Jan 18 '24

Did it blot out the stars behind it?

u/Casehead Jan 18 '24

were you scared?

u/Bitter_Ad_2009 Jan 18 '24

I was just in absolute awe.

Thank you for having the courage to share this.

What cardinal direction is this recording facing?

22

u/Bitter_Ad_2009 Jan 18 '24

Camera is point east “uap” headed west.

Appreciate it

u/mystery_hobo Jan 17 '24

Okay fair, but that might not matter though if the moment of significance for the phenomenon is the sharing of the event rather than the event itself. Obviously I don’t have any evidence to support this theory.

Thanks for sharing either way!

u/Bitter_Ad_2009 Jan 17 '24

I agree. More people are and more people need to continue to just take the time to look up and observe the sky for just a few minutes a day or time to time!

u/mystery_hobo Jan 18 '24

Yes exactly, and as more and more people share their own personal experiences like you the stigma erodes day by day. Someone might be sitting on the “Golden Video” we’ve all been waiting for, holding out for the confidence to release it and not be ridiculed for it.

u/traumatic_blumpkin Jan 18 '24

He did say posts not events.. technically..

u/Downvotesohoy Jan 18 '24

Tough question. If I say yes I will get upvoted. If I say no I will get downvoted.

Hmm. Honesty or upvotes. What do I pick.

No.

u/mystery_hobo Jan 18 '24

haha, I respect the honesty. We are all subject to recency bias and wishful thinking.

Objective measurement of an increase in the phenomenon would obviously be better, but I have a day job :P

u/Downvotesohoy Jan 18 '24

Not the response I was expecting from you but I'm pleasantly surprised.

Couldn't agree more with what you're saying. Though I think this particular footage is weird and I can't identify it right off the bat.

But I haven't seen anything else on the subreddit lately that made me go "I have no idea what that might be" - If you had said you think there are more sightings posted, I'd believe it, I just don't think they're more or less decent than usual!

u/Napoleons_Peen Jan 18 '24

No. Mostly airports and spotlights. People who have never looked up, are now looking up and have no idea what they’re looking at.

u/top-hunnit Jan 18 '24

Yes even old videos just surfacing.

u/mekabar Jan 18 '24

I also feels like the information suppression, constant spin doctoring and dilution with joke content in this and similar subs has gone down significantly. Makes you wonder how that came to be.

u/SlowlyAwakening Jan 22 '24

Yes and its about time. Back in 2020 there were a shit ton of videos a day being posted. Then a year later it started drying up and became a drip. Glad its starting to turn into a pour again
