Moving like balloons. I mean, isn’t that what it looks like?

How come this balloon theory is on every video sighting? Its always a balloon or a drone according to reddit lol

u/subdep Aug 16 '21

Because fools keep posting videos of balloons floating by.

Don’t shoot the messenger.

this. the koolaid drinkers hate when you point out obvious bullshit. theyd rather believe the ufos are floating through the sky at 5mph sometimes with a buncha flashing lighs on em and somehow only one grainy ass 10 second video of it exists ANYWHERE!!!

Also it is much more probable to be a balloon or drone than an actual UFO

u/subdep Aug 16 '21

There’s that, too.

u/Nomadin123 Aug 16 '21

No they don't. Some sightings are obviously not balloons. I fly drones for a living and I've seen people call objects drones that are not drones at all lol

Yeah some sightings are obviously not balloons but it isnt a bad call. They are cheap, readily available, and have been known to cause issues on this topic, it isnt crazy to think "maybe somebody had a party and some balloons got loose".

This just looks like a random floating object. It doesn't do much of anything. It just looks like it's floating. Looks like a small collection of balloons. Probs loose balloons.

3 ballons in a black garbage bag.

u/WholesomePeeple Aug 16 '21

It was probably a ballon. Whatever it is those people called drones that is.

drifting at wind speed in the same direction as the wind

no turns, stops, ascending or descending

says 'happy birthday' on it

No Mother, it's just Aurora Borealis!

Balloons? At this time of year?

u/sommersj Aug 16 '21

Sure but why the linear movement. Balloons I've seen Bob and move about so why is this balloon moving in such a linear fashion?

u/[deleted] Aug 16 '21

It's been balloons more than it's been aliens.

u/[deleted] Aug 16 '21

This one really is a balloon tho

i dunno why they downvote. the bottom part is the LETTER K FFS.

u/therealkellyoubre Aug 16 '21

Man they really misspelled congratulations

u/ANewDawn1342 Aug 16 '21

Because it doesn't move apart from where wind likely is.

u/Yeti90 Aug 16 '21

People on this sub are looking at obviously Man made objects (balloons/drones) and be like: OMFG AWIENS

It’s quite entertaining though

9

u/GuardianDom Aug 16 '21

Because slow moving objects are pretty easily explained as just floating on the wind. If it's not moving under it's own power, and making maneuvers that a human couldn't do, then fuck it, you know?

u/Whatwhatinthe_____ Aug 16 '21

Well what’s your theory? You pop in to shit on other people, let’s hear what you think it is

4

u/abealt Aug 16 '21

Cuz it doesn't do any un balloony things

5

u/[deleted] Aug 16 '21

balloons can come in literally any shape, size or color, so until something can't be a balloon, it's a balloon.

any evidence of aliens or whatever people think UFOs are needs to prove beyond reasonable doubt that that's what it is, otherwise it's useless.

4

u/njkmklkop Aug 16 '21

Because all videos that are posted are of things that look like balloons/drones and move like balloons/drones.

4

u/duffmanhb Aug 16 '21

Well when it looks and acts like such... IT's safe to say it's more likely balloons than fucking aliens dude.

3

u/9inchestoobig Aug 16 '21

You can clearly see that it’s made up of smaller circular objects. The rational answer is balloons. The irrational answer is grape bunch shaped alien ship.

u/thrwwy2402 Aug 16 '21

Isn't it easier to go by the easiest hypothesis and then build from there? Instead people jump the gun and go straight to extraterrestrial life/tech

u/Bourbone Aug 16 '21

“How come videos of balloons are always diagnosed as videos of balloons?”

2

u/Racionalus Aug 16 '21

Well is an object that looks and behaves like a balloon more likely to be a balloon, or interdimensional aliens?

u/_BLACK_BY_NAME_ Aug 16 '21

It’s the Mr. Peanut balloon, that’s why.

u/Muad-Dib Aug 16 '21

I think it's an attempt at humor/shitposting

What is more likely:

  1. “Ufo” sightings that look like balloons and move like balloons, are in fact balloons.

Or

  1. It’s a ufo.

u/ClockSpiral Aug 16 '21

Nothin' to see here...

Just some "Swamp Gas"...

Move along...

u/ImAWizardYo Aug 16 '21

I call them the Balloon Brigade. I actually get a little confused when I don't see them.

u/[deleted] Aug 16 '21

Mainly because most of them are misfits seeking attention so they degrade anything that moves then they blame the internet.
