April 11, 2007 Gabrielle Batran, 32, from Bucharest was on a bus trip to Greece, near Mount Olympus. He and several other people on the bus noticed an object floating in the air at a distance of 2-3 kilometers, but closer to the crest of the mountain, at the eastern slope of Mount Olympus. The witness took a camera out of his backpack, which took a few seconds and managed to take a photo at 11:41:39. 

The bus was moving from north to south at a speed of 35-40 km/h. There were trees on the side of the road, because of which 2 more attempts to take pictures were missed. After standing at a fixed point for about 30 seconds, the object moved horizontally, then fired vertically, no more than two seconds later, and disappeared.

Original news

11 aprilie 2007, Gabriel Batranu, de 32 de ani, din Bucuresti se afla in excursie cu autocarul in Grecia, in apropierea muntelui Olimp. El si mai multi din autocar au observat in dreptul versantului estic al muntelui Olimp un obiect care plutea in aer la o distanta de 2-3 kilometri, dar mai aproape decat creasta muntelui. Martorul a scos aparatul de fotografiat din rucsac, ceea ce a durat cateva secunde si a reusit sa faca o fotografie, la ora 11:41:39. Autocarul se deplasa de la nord spre sud cu viteza de 35-40 km/h. Pe marginea drumului erau copaci, ceea ce a facut ca alte 2 tentative de fotografiere sa fie ratate.  Dupa o stationare la punct fix de circa 30 de secunde, obiectul s-a deplasat orizontal, apoi a tasnit pe verticala, in cel mult doua secunde, si a disparut.
