‘UFO’ captured overtaking Virgin Atlantic plane at JFK (VIDEO)

A plane enthusiast has filmed a weird video which prompted online speculations of a UFO overtaking a Virgin Atlantic plane during take-off from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport.

The footage reportedly taken on July 7 shows an unidentified object flying over the Virgin Atlantic plane at high speed. The trivial video has prompted speculations about a possible UFO sighting at JFK.



Rick, from LookNowTV, a UFO paranormal channel, who reportedly discovered the video said the footage hasn’t been tempered with, according to DailyMail Online.

“The person that saw this UFO at JFK films planes often and looks to catch UFOs on video,” he said. “I have no reason to believe this guy is a hoax. It’s really unidentified. I shared it with my friends to get further opinions on it, and we could not come to a definitive conclusion on what the object might be so I decided to go with it and share it online."

YouTube users were confused by the video, which may be a hoax. Some wrote that they are convinced it “100 percent real,” while others suggested that it could be a drone or a military plane.

“On the zoomed in and slow mo shots you can clearly see It even has its own red force field, 100% aliens!” user Tom Baldwin wrote in comments on YouTube.

Russ Kellet, who claims to be a UFO investigator, cast doubt on the speculation, saying that the flying object could be a bird or anything else at a different angle.

Some YouTube users have ruled out the bird theory, saying: “It’s Superman.”

So what do people think?

At first I thought that the object didn't go behind the plane at any time, so it could be closer to the person filming than the plane. However, in slow motion, it does appear to be on the far side of the plane.

A very fast bird perhaps?

Surely a bird would be pulled into the slip stream? Plus, if you look closely, as it goes over the top of the cockpit it appear to spin.

It does appear to change shape slightly or spin. I thought perhaps it was flapping wings, but I'm not sure. Hmmm, it's a good one isn't it?

It is, will get people talking.

It reminds me of that plane crash near New York where witnesses thought they saw a missile heading towards the plane, although they did describe that as being a streak of light or glowing.

You mean this one:

TWA Flight 800 crash caused by overheated fuel tank vapors, not bomb or missile: officials
Conspiracy-theorists have long fingered the government for the 1996 crash of the Boeing 747 off Long Island. A new film says new evidence shows a missile strike may have downed the jumbo jet, killing all 230 people on board.

They are still arguing about it.

Yes, that one.

Still, this latest UFO wasn't glowing or anything as far as I can see.

Interesting...!

i could be a lot closer to the camera than it actually appears but it``s defiantly very odd
