Some kind of silver, saucer-shaped object was caught in tape by an airline passenger over the City of Seoul in South Korea on Saturday, 7th April 2012.
In the video, the unidentified passenger is filming the otherwise uneventful view from the plane’s window. Suddenly he makes a startled sound as the white saucer-like image comes into view. The UFO is seen at first holding steady with the plane’s pace, before rapidly picking up speed and darting out of the frame.
Later in the video, the purported UFO image is magnified. Ultimately, it looks more like an ivory colored bowler hat than a piece of futuristic flying technology. Is this just bad computer-generated imagery (CGI) and a cheap hoax from a prankster or a genuine unidentified object caught on film?
The video was uploaded by YouTube user ‘Crazy breaking news’, who commented: ‘It looks a little bit strange and not really similar to the other videos. If it’s really real and not a fake, it looks like a kind of military drone.’
The same writer who speculates on the origin of this object also recently wrote about video taken from one of NASA’s live video feeds. In that video, three objects in a triangle formation appear on screen about five minutes into the video. Someone from NASA chimes in to say the object is actually a piece of foil, aka space junk, and that its reflection is giving the appearance of three objects in a triangle formation.
Several YouTube users are convinced it’s a UFO of some sort, but others remain sceptical.
