UFO Races Virgin Atlantic Plane Over New York


A strange video has emerged which appears to show a UFO overtaking and racing a Virgin Atlantic plane in the skies over New York City.

The clip first appeared on LookNowTV, a UFO/ paranormal channel, according to Yahoo News. Reportedly taken on July 7, it depicts an unidentified object flying at apparent high speed in the distance behind the plane, which was purportedly taking off from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport.

LookNowTV‘s Rick is the person credited with uncovering the UFO video, according to RT. He alleges that despite the unusual nature of the footage, it hasn’t been tampered with.

“The person that saw this UFO at JFK films planes often and looks to catch UFOs on video. 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.”

Many observers were at a loss to explain the strange UFO, though some went so far as to assert that it was clearly of extraterrestrial origin. While some commenters suggested that it might be a hoax, others pointed out that the UFO could be a drone or military aircraft.

“On the zoomed in and slow mo shots you can clearly see It even has its own red force field, 100% aliens!” one commenter breathlessly asserted.

British UFO expert Russ Kellett, however, offered another explanation for the UFO, pointing out that it could possibly be explained in a much more mundane fashion.

“It doesn’t look to be a bird or anything like that but at a different angle it could be anything. You can believe in UFOs and be logical about images as well. It comes behind from the airplane’s tail, you can tell it’s behind but it does move sort of like a bird, when something’s moving when the wings are flapping. If it’s moving away, it will give that appearance.”

The footage is hardly the only unusual clip to surface in recent days. As the Inquisitr previously reported, a photo and video purporting to show South Carolina’s famed Lizard Man emerged over the weekend, startling observers.

Despite Kellett’s observation, some YouTube users quickly ruled out the idea that the object could be a bird, saying the strange UFO racing the Virgin Atlantic jet could only be “superman.”
