Strange and unexplained lights were capture on tape (with a rather old looking video camera) by a man in Marshall County, KY.
The lights seem to display unnatural flight patterns in the short clip. Bright in color, they dash through the sky like meteors.
Some describe them as fireworks (Roman candles) others say it’s meteors. I don’t think either of those explanations suffice.

MARSHALL COUNTY, KY – Are we alone in the universe? There are plenty of arguments on that subject, but a local man says he’s got proof that we are not alone. He says he was just messing around with an old video camera when he saw something extraordinary in the sky.

The Marshall County man says he shot the video from his front yard over the weekend. “They are unidentified flying objects,” he said.

He says he realizes any claims of UFOs will be met with skepticism. That’s why he asked us to mask his identity. “Because of my job and neighbors, friends, I don’t want to be made a spectacle of.”

Nonetheless, he has his own suspicions. “It’s just something that appears to be, what do you call it, extra-terrestrial,” he said, “that’s what it appears to be to me.”

But what do the experts think? We asked Rick Shanklin with the National Weather Service if this could be what’s known as ball lightning. Pointing to the video, Shanklin said, “This one here that really darts off is certainly atypical of any ball lightning motion that I’m familiar with.”

We asked was there any other sort of atmospheric phenomenon, any kind of meteorological phenomenon that could explain what’s in the video? Shanklin said he couldn’t think of any weather explanation.

One thing we noticed when we went to the area was all the power lines. We asked retired lineman David Carrico if he had ever seen anything like this. Pointing out one of the lights, he said, “That right there I have seen. I’ve seen lightning hit a pole and follow. We were working on a pole down just one span down and saw that exact thing. Lightning had hit down here, and a ball of fire just followed the line down through.”

However, not everything on the tape looked so familiar. Pointing to another part of the footage, he said, “During storms and, you know, lightning and rain and trees all around, I mean, I’ve seen some crazy things and seen some odd balls of fire, but that one did seem kind of weird.”

Weird yes, but proof of extra-terrestrials? Not even the guy holding the camera knows.

“There’s something in the videotape that I do not understand,” the Marshall County man said. “I don’t know what it is, but to just let it not be told would be a waste, to me. Maybe somebody can look at it and say, this is this, or this is that, and then I’ll be satisfied, you know,accomplish my goal… is to find out what it is.”

The Marshall County Sheriff’s Office says they did not receive any reports similar to what this man describes. Local law enforcement officials tell us they do occasionally get calls about UFOs, and they encourage people to report these things to the local authorities. However, unless there is a true emergency, they urge you not to call 9-1-1. What they do suggest is exactly what this gentleman did. Take photos. Take video. That will help them to rule in or out some of the many possibilities.
