A young couple in their 20s driving along D. 561 saw a flashing light on the hills between Fox Ampoule and Oops. 

A few kilometers later, the couple saw it again, this time larger and flashing, at the Logis d'amphaux intersection. It seemed to be over the nearby town of Fox. 

They stopped their car on the side of the road and watched it for 15 minutes. 

Then, about 200 meters behind them on the road, they saw a small point of light near the ground, as if someone was carrying a flashlight. They turned around and drove back to the light and saw at a distance of about 30-50 meters a semi-human silhouette of phosphorescent white, with no visible arms or legs and no features on the head. He was about five feet eight inches (172.7 cm) tall, "coming and going" and didn't look very stable.

They compared the shape to a television image.

Summary: A young couple in their 20’s, driving on D.561, saw a flashing light in the hills between Fox-Amphoux and Aups. After several kilometers the couple again saw it, now larger and blinking, at the crossroads of Logis d’Amphoux; it seemed to be above the nearby town of Fox. They pulled their car to the side of the road and watched it for 15 minutes. Then, about 200 meters behind them along the road, they saw a small point of light near the ground, as though someone were carrying a flashlight; they turned around and drove back toward the light and saw, about 30 to 50 meters away, a semi human silhouette of a phosphorescent white color, with no visible arms or legs and no features upon its head. It was about five-foot eight inches tall, “advancing & retreating,” and not appearing very stable. They compared the form to a TV image. The couple associated the lights seen earlier with the figure, became frightened, and drove off.
