Saturday, 21 June 2014, about 21 hours, the man was fishing off the coast of Margate (in Kent, on the East of the country). Then he noticed at a distance of about ten red-orange lights floating in the air. These objects disappeared and reappeared intermittently. In a few minutes all these UFO went out for no reason.

It shows:

"I was fishing and saw these lights randomly appeared and disappeared in Reculver [a small coastal village, ed]. So I grabbed my camera and shot them.

The auto focus of my camera a little messy, which is annoying. Also there was little wind that day."

The witness thinks it could have been Chinese lanterns. This explanation is certainly plausible, but remains a theory.

Original news

Une multitude d’OVNI lumineux ont récemment été observés près des côtes du Royaume-Unis. Le seul (?) témoin de ce surprenant phénomène a pu les filmer. Aujourd’hui, il aimerait bien qu’on lui explique ce qui s’est passé ce jour-là …

Le samedi 21 juin 2014, vers 21 heures, un pêcheur s’adonnait à sa passion favorite au large des côtes de Margate, ville située dans le comté du Kent, à l’Est du pays. C’est alors qu’il a observé, au loin, une dizaine de lumières rouges-oranges flotter dans les airs. Ces objets disparaissaient et réapparaissaient par intermittence sans mouvement brusque.

Au bout de quelques minutes, tous ces OVNI se sont éclipsés sans aucune explication.

Il témoigne :

« Je pêchais et j’ai vu ces lumières qui apparaissaient et disparaissaient aléatoirement à Reculver [petit village côtier, NDLR]. J’ai donc attrapé ma caméra et je les ai filmés.

La mise au point automatique de ma caméra ont un peu gâché les images, ce qui est gênant. Aussi il y avait un peu de vent ce jour-là. »

Le témoin pense, peut-être avec raison, qu’il s’agissait de lanternes chinoises. Cette explication est certes plausible mais demeure qu’une théorie.
