    LOL
  • goeatsmsht, on 11/09/2007, -8/+90A crowd of 100 and only 1 crappy cell phone pic?
  • aloser, on 10/10/2007, -10/+85"three of them formed a triangular shape"

    This was probably the most useless statement ever...

  • Oscxk, on 11/09/2007, -19/+74I for one welcome our new alien overlords.
  • HunterTV, on 11/09/2007, -7/+46***** that. Until they land in Central Park in broad daylight I'm not buying it.
  • AtHomeBoy2000, on 10/10/2007, -3/+392+ minutes of video here...

  • Mossman85, on 11/09/2007, -0/+31I wish I live long enough to see the arrival of alien life to Earth. Man how cool would that be?
  • domomike, on 11/09/2007, -1/+28You also forgot that you have to charge your camera for 6 hours before initial use to maximize overall battery life.
  • NSMike, on 10/10/2007, -2/+28Obviously Shakespeare was a Klingon.
  • pfdude, on 10/10/2007, -3/+28Because you can't make a line with 3 points?
  • theysayjump, on 11/09/2007, -3/+28Remember that U.F.O. doesn't mean it's/they're aliens.

    @BluesFan; How many flares have you seen that appear in the sky with no trail, stay there for a couple of minutes and then leave with no trail?
  • SupaFupa, on 11/09/2007, -5/+28Does this mean that all our base are belong to them?
  • PawFox, on 10/10/2007, -0/+20Oh well, let the looting start
  • melllvar37, on 10/10/2007, -2/+22i was at an interplanetarian ufo race last night and all i got was this crappy cell-phone pic
  • danrien, on 10/10/2007, -4/+24"Hillary Potter from The British Earth Aerial Mystery Society (BEAMS) said they were being inundated with similar calls from across the country but said it was rare for such phenomena to be witnessed by so many people."

    Obviously, Harry's relative would know what it was.
  • scrimaxinc, on 11/09/2007, -1/+20ahhhhh non-falling falling flares.....OF COURSE!
  • sathias, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18Or that villages in the UK often have digital camera stores that are open at night.
  • jf317820, on 10/10/2007, -0/+17there's a link to a video of the UFOs near the top of the story on this page: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=470579&in_page_id=1770&in_page_id=1770&expand=true#StartComments
  • takeo1775, on 10/10/2007, -2/+18I love how some people there are just not that interested in them, its not everyday you see formation lights in the sky with no apparent reason or knowledge of their origin... then again its nearly last orders, better head back in... its only an alien invasion.
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15No. It's illegal.
  • AJRiddle, on 11/09/2007, -0/+15Its that damn International Statute of Secrecy, if it weren't for that we could just tell you muggles what this really is.

    oops I've said to much.
  • dtele, on 10/10/2007, -3/+17I read a British white paper released a few years ago where some RAF officers reported a similar occurence back in the late 1940's

  • skankyBacon, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14And that they were prepared to drop hundreds of dollars on a digital camera at a moment's notice.
  • DruSam, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14"You gonna get raped."
  • eecue, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12Incredibly boring youtube video here:

    http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2539355117532061041&q=Stratford-Upon-Avon&total=318&start=0&num=100&so=1&type=search&plindex=0
  • murphygr, on 10/10/2007, -3/+14i can see a witness description. "they were darting all about... or maybe i was just stumbling a bit. but they were there! i think. ***** i cant remember, i dont even know who i woke up next to this morning"
  • Adam420, on 10/10/2007, -3/+14Funny how people complain about bad images/videos, not like people are expecting to see something like this and have a HD video camera with them at all times for an event like this -_-
  • Icebird, on 11/09/2007, -1/+12SPAWN MORE OVERLORDS!
  • SupaFupa, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12You are assuming that they knew at the time that the phenomena would last for 30 minutes.
  • OBKenobi, on 10/10/2007, -4/+15This is too suspiciously like a season 3 Doctor Who episode.

    Or maybe Doctor Who is real, like Star Wars is.
  • bbardlbradd, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10Until they chain you by your feet, hang you upside down on a conveyer, dip your head under water, shock you just enough to stun you for a few seconds, cut off your head (results vary), shoot steam at you from a boiler to make your hair fall off, dip you into a vat of extremely hot grease for a few minutes, pull you out, wrap you up, send you to a freezer, ship you off, sell you, microwave you and then take one bite and throw you in the trash b/c they're not really that hungry...
  • DruSam, on 11/09/2007, -0/+10Surprisingly good video footage. Definitely something strange whatever they are.
  • coodle, on 10/10/2007, -8/+17Look at the video, it must be real! Oh, that's so awesome, I hope humanity can make deals with them.
    Maybe we can export air conditioning systems if they live on a hot planet or warm clothes if it's an ice planet.
    Yeah, and don't forget toilet paper, do you think they use toilet paper on other planets?
    Probably not, some countries even here on earth don't do...

    So many possibilities...
  • Neiby, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Actually, there are people who believe he's a reptilian alien, and I'm not kidding. Look it up!
  • soupdawg30, on 11/09/2007, -1/+10Well they are definitely UFO's whether are not the are alien we will probably never know.
  • PunkRampant, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Or that anyone would buy a digital camera just to take pictures of dots in the sky.
  • shadowsurfr1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Not that Americans would do anything about it either way.
  • simplynix, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Or that they could, in fact, be alien vampires, which means they wouldn't show up in photographs anyway.
  • mtrip, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Or, "They were flying all around...I love you man!"
  • MindTrigger, on 10/10/2007, -2/+10Bush is clearly a gray.
  • krakhed, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9especially since its not moving.
  • allan17, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Don't be a dick (Cheney).
  • mercurysquad, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8We call this teh internets.
  • dogstylee, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7I think somewhere there should be a List Of Internet User Stereotypes.

    You will be filed under the "Everything I See Is Fake And Made In Photoshop" category.
  • JDove6, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7falling IQ...
  • PunkRampant, on 10/10/2007, -5/+12owned.
  • scrimaxinc, on 10/10/2007, -3/+10A stealth bomber that's spotted by over 100 people on the ground? Doesn't sound very stealth to me.....must be French....
  • Catchpen, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8To be or not to be our new alien overlords? That is the question.
