1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,000 I live in Largo and approximately 745 to 750 p.m. 2 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:16,000 It looked to be a dirigible hovering over north Clearwater area. 3 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:26,000 North Craft took off from Tampa going in the same direction it passed under the dirigible. 4 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:35,000 This dirigible glowed so brightly that it lit up the aircraft under it. 5 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:44,000 Now I'm in Largo and you can see the glow off the airplane. 6 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:55,000 Once this happened the aircraft took a 360 degree turn and went back for a second walk at the dirigible. 7 00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:06,000 Approximately 240 degrees of the turn this dirigible took off and went towards South St. Pete. 8 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:11,000 It would have put a stealth to shame at the speed it took off at. 9 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:24,000 By the time it was towards the Largo area 15 different people reported it to be in a cigar shape in our apartment complex. 10 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:31,000 I came out at the tail end of it unfortunately and I got the biggest mouth in the complex. 11 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,000 That's why I'm on the phone. 12 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:45,000 I'm pretty skeptical on this. I took a look at the tail end of this and it looked like a normal flight leaving out towards South St. Pete area. 13 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:50,000 I looked up in the sky and I looked back at the person that was telling me about this. 14 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,000 I said yeah right you're full of high air. 15 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,000 I took a look back and I could barely see it. 16 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:03,000 It was an incredible speed it was going at. 17 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,000 Was it holding its shape? 18 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,000 I'm sorry. 19 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,000 Was it holding its original shape? 20 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:14,000 That I don't... can I get you somebody that's seen it from start to finish? 21 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,000 Sure. 22 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,000 Okay thank you. 23 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,000 Hello. 24 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,000 Yes could we get a description of what you saw? 25 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,000 Okay there was three colors to the object. 26 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,000 Yes. 27 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000 It was to the north end of the apartment where we're at. 28 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,000 I'd say it was about maybe four or five hundred feet up. 29 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,000 It was pretty intense. 30 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,000 The colors were real brilliant. 31 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,000 It wasn't any aircraft color I've ever seen. 32 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:40,000 Yes. 33 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,000 And it brought my binoculars out and tried to get a fix on it. 34 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,000 It was just hovering in a stationary position. 35 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,000 It looked like a Boeing jet. 36 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,000 Maybe it could have been a 727 or a 747. 37 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,000 It went about two hundred feet underneath it. 38 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,000 Now that was kind of strange right there. 39 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,000 Because usually you'll avoid something like that. 40 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:01,000 As soon as he went past it, as soon as the plane was underneath this object, 41 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,000 it turned a brilliant white light. 42 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:07,000 And it lit the plane up for a few minutes and then the plane circled around. 43 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:14,000 Okay after that, he went about another two, three hundred feet straight up. 44 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,000 He came back to the left a little bit, hovered for a few minutes more and he just zipped by. 45 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,000 He went right past it. 46 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,000 The only thing I could catch, it looked like, at first I thought it was a blimp. 47 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,000 But the way he was moving, it was just too fast for a blimp. 48 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,000 Okay. 49 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,000 Then he disappeared around St. Peter, it looked like. 50 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,000 He kept his hands going south. 51 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,000 Okay, what time did that occur? 52 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,000 About 7.45, 7.50 around there. 53 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,000 Okay. 54 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:43,000 But it's up to, you know, I'm in the aircraft and I've never seen anything like this before in my life. 55 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,000 I mean, that was fantastic. 56 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,000 And there was a whole bunch of other people I saw too. 57 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:54,000 And then one girl says, well, maybe they're doing military maneuvers, but I don't think we've got anything like that. 58 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,000 Okay, any estimate of size? 59 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:04,000 What I estimated would be about, oh, the size, space-wise, of a house, okay. 60 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,000 Okay. 61 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,000 But thinner, you know, like cigar shaped. 62 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,000 Yes. 63 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,000 Sort of like that, you know. 64 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,000 That's about all I can tell you. 65 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,000 Okay. 66 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,000 And it was pretty far out in the distance. 67 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,000 Okay. 68 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,000 It's hard to judge size like that. 69 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,000 How long do you feel you watched it? 70 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000 Oh, we watched it for about 10 minutes. 71 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:20,000 Okay. 72 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,000 I wish I had a camcorder, I'll tell you. 73 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,000 But then again, you can't get it at night. 74 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,000 You know, it's too hard to fix a cam out there. 75 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,000 Okay, we appreciate you reporting that. 76 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,000 And if we get any follow-up on this, we'll let you know about it. 77 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:38,000 Yeah, because, you know, you've been telling a few people about this, you know, through different agencies and all this on the airline and everything. 78 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,000 You know, I think he's nuts, you know. 79 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,000 Well, I don't think eight people in a row are nuts. 80 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,000 Right. 81 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,000 So, I know they're out there, you know. 82 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,000 I mean, a lot of people are skeptic and don't believe it, but I didn't believe it either, you know. 83 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,000 Okay. 84 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,000 I believe it either, but that's something different. 85 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,000 Okay, thanks again. 86 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,000 Have a good night. 87 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,000 Okay. 88 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,000 Bye-bye.
