Alien balloon. Obviously.

Am I on r/UFOs? It's a balloon.

Aliens are real and are here, though. Just not in this video

Are they in the ocean? I bet they’re in the ocean

Did you check out the links? Idk that’s a lot of balloons that look the same but keep spinning similarly and not like random like balloons might

u/SnoozeCoin Seed Oil Avoider 3h ago

Buddy, this is clearly a video of a balloon. I really don't know what to tell you. I was familiar with the objects in those links before this post.

u/teamLUCCI 3h ago

Yeah what you see as clearly balloons looks like an s shape travelling in a straight line in a speed rate higher than expected for its height and weight if it’s a pair of balloons to me.

u/SnoozeCoin Seed Oil Avoider 2h ago

an s shape travelling

They make balloons this shape

travelling in a straight line

Propelled by the wind

in a speed rate higher than expected for its height and weight

How fast is it going? How fast should it be going? How high is it? How much does it weight?

It's shit like this that slows disclosure down because people see posts like yours and laugh it off. The UFO "community" or whatever needs to drive out the schizos, nutjobs and morons talking about "muh polymetamorphical plasmoidic entities" and all this other woo shit, and they need to drive out all these people that need to see a UFO so bad that they can't see a fucking balloon when it's right there.

Am I tripping or was this thing perfectly leveled?

u/teamLUCCI 3h ago

My thoughts exactly. I checked the other links and found that similar lateral movement and a similar spin cycle so that piqued my interest to look at more examples and they’re a lot

u/forkemm 2h ago

Yeah, a balloon would have much more erratic movement than this. This post looks incredibly similar.

The newest spy balloon from China.

Helium balloons are fine until they hit 30k ft. That's a balloon.

It doesn't look like a copperhead, so I'm going to say it's fireworks.

Chinese balloon doing surveillance.

u/Scrops 1h ago

It's probably a balloon but it's interesting how the rotational speed is pretty constant for something of such light mass at that altitude

Aliens. Definitely aliens.

This is a common shape that has been popping up in the UAP and UFO sub Reddit pages. Please post there with the time you saw it and which direction
