  • big boomerang hit the proppellor than hit a cop in tyhe head

  • it was an RAF UAV that crashed in to the turbines

  • they've mastered the universe, built ships with unfathomable abilities, plotted a course through space and time with absolute precision, and then accidentaly crashed into a wind turbine-- brilliant logic you twits

  • the coal monster got it.

  • swamp gas from a weather balloon was trapped in a thermal pocket and refracted the light from Venus. Subsequently the balloon collided with the turbine and tore of a blade before ascending high into the atmosphere.

  • lmao

  • maybe you canmake a ufo but can you make one strong enought to do that??have you actually seen the size of thse turbines i was so freaked out when saw a few of te pictures that people took

  • oooooooooooooooooohhhh scaryyyy alien invasion stealing wind turbine blades noooo!!!! we're all going to die!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xD

  • Here are easy steps on how to make an UFO.

    Get many black balloons, tie several small flashlight to the balloons. Tie the balloons to each other to make the shapes as if it looks like a flying saucer, then you let it go at night and it looks like an UFO! LOL.....

  • Yes the UFO dishies are real ive Seen one when i was like 7 or 9

    that was like in the 70's

    we lives near a big field and the UFO was there and then like quickly dissapeard

  • Lightning?

  • stop finding other explanations for what happend at the wind turbine.

    One freakin' blade is missing and it's fuckin' gone ! who took it ?

    A human with a saw cut it off?

    Thunder? wtf?

    A freakin' UFO has taken it with them for research or so!

    Afraid of the truth?

  • somebody's gonna end up linking this to 2012 for some reason, most likely because people who believe in 2012 being doomsday are idiots. But yes i believe in the ET

  • Ice, huh.. well if you look, you can see all the other ones are facing the same direction. The one that was affected is twisted. You have to look at the center of the part that spins and you'll see. And the third blade is missing? Those things are quite large. Ice. I can't believe people accept either no explanation, or ones like this from the "authorities" Something smells foul. TIME FOR DISCLOSURE, don't you think?

  • aliens r real man long time ago i didn't belieave than i my friends told me true stories n than me n my friend seen something big n a sky like a disk n there we r we belieave n when they come n the people aint rdy urs just fuck im being friends with the little bastards n like let me fly the ufo i wanna go scare china people

  • one big frisbee  :0

  • that stuff is expensive 0.o

  • oh right yeah i guess it must have been a meteorite ??????????? wtf bengaltigre

  • Just a meteorite or something

  • this video is awesome, I like how we have reached an age where ufoism is accepted, it's general knowledge to know how large the universe is, we're certainly not alone, and extra-terrestrials certainly have a lot of interest in earth right now

  • ANSWER.... A Low Flying Plane, Colided And Court Fire. OR a Sphere Type UFO DID hit it.

  • struggling? i think not

  • the glowing circle is the moon

  • the beamed the blade up in the spaceship for materials examination

  • LMFAOOO, got ppl talking aint it :D, im just clever :)

  • You may attribute UFO pictures to photoshop, crop circles to hoaxers, but there is no attribution available for the complete disapperance of the third blade. These blades are half the length of a football pitch and weigh several tons. Helicopter crash? Please supply the evidence. THE BLADE IS GONE.

  • LOL It was taken away by the company who built the turbine, you see it was not properly installed and when the blade snapped off it collided with the second mangling it. Both have now been removed and are currently under repair.

  • how would it hit the second blade? Wouldn't it just fly off?

  • blade isnt gone it was found by officials the next morning. The MOD have now come forward and explained.. they were testing the new delta aircrafts out.

  • why does the report say its nowhere to be found....

  • because they cant find it anywhere? sorry lol for my crudeness.

  • i was replying to someone else comment who said they are doing tests on the missing wing.

  • oh, i oppologise, its with youtube not labeling comments correcty.

    Have a nice day.

  • ice?......ice?!! its dem fookin aliens!! cant wait to meet one!!

  • i found out the real reason: Today we found out infact what damaged the wind turbine. It was infact a helicopter that was going to land and it landed on top of it. they found the helicopter in the woodland area around half a mile away.

  • if it was a helicopter like u say,then were is the third blade from the turbine?u seem to be the only 1 thats "found this out".my evaluation=your full of shit.thank you.goodbye.

  • i think it was lightning and the glowing spheres were mini ball lightning ;)

  • either were all gunna die ahhhhhhhhhhhh or it was cheese from the moon

    GOD SAVE THIS PLANET!!!!!

  • it could have been lightening :D

  • they're grounded

  • o lmao :D then errr i blame students ha ha ha

  • well never mind the fact that 1 blade came clean off and another was bent, think of the fact of that the local people saw orange orbs, if they were at a distance and travling in a straight line then yea probaly was a plane but if they were flying all over the place then what else could it have been, just remember this universe is way to big to only have 1 planet inhbited with life.

  • couldnt agree more!

  • bull

  • ITN news sucks dick and they didn't tell you the blade was found right next to the turbine

  • Some hungover student will wake up with the blade in his back garden.

  • lol

  • isnt there some kind of raf base or something near there? prob a low flying plane or sumthing

  • maybe aliens are nicking all our good sharp stuff to kill us all with it LOL

  • come on the turbine itself is 300ft tall and the blade is about 65ft long. where the hell is someone gna hide a 65ft piece of metal?? and how wud they move it anywhere? hmm

  • Could of been anything Like a huge rock-thing from space

    but then again there said there was a big light..

    Who know's ..

    I dont think it was UFO's though .

  • Peugeot made it,and the blade fell off just like my door handle.

  • lmao

  • Very Strange.

  • Bullshit! Gypo's stole it for the scrap metal. Either that or a flock of frozen turkeys flew into it. O.o

  • Wheres the pork pie?

  • let me guess about one missing blade ummmm.... i still going with giant frisbee :)

  • talk about a big frisbee lol

  • lol

  • WOW , i beleive in ufo's , who else , :P

  • So, to clarify.... aliens with the superior technology required to travel across solar systems weren't able to avoid a pesky wind turbine?

  • maybe they were traveling so fast which is what they would have to do to cross the solar system.

  • mabye they were drunk or something like that lol. anyway youd think the base of it would be knocked over

  • Yes, the more I watch it the more I'm convinced that aliens hit it, then realising the scrap value of the missing blade, they turned a bad experience into an opportunity and lashed it to their space ship. Suddenly makes perfect sense.

  • Definatly, there bad expiriance they took it. hm last year there were a lot more sightings of ufo's and this to start the year. Hm they might be planing something. Soon verry soon thing will unravel. you might think im crazy but trust me. you need to belive..............

  • melted it down into something else? recycling =D but I'm not sure what happened. cba to make up my mind

  • For those people thinking of aliens, Just to clarify the meaning of UFO. It means UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECT. It could of been anything like a jet plane or something. Who knows?

  • well what sort of retard wouldnt be able to identify a plane? n wheres the plane now??

  • Bet some scally cunt robbed the blade an tuck it down the scrap yard for £20...

  • Waw do you think it could have been a bird?

  • no if it was a bird, it wouldnt of caused that damage, the burd would of been MASHED

  • omg i live in lincoln shire is it true?

  • the 3rd blade was sent away to the turbine company for tests, its not missing. thats just the sun lieing as usual

  • Who ya gonna call? WIND-TURBINE BUSTERS!!!

    lol

  • what could it possibly have been other than aliens?? i mean wind turbines are so amazingly strong that nothing on this planet could have broken it, which means it must have been a flying saucer that crashed into it then took the other blade.

  • It was me, I shot the wind turbine with my cannon.

    case closed.

  • It's odd because if it was caused by Ice, which is the report they came out with, what did happen to the third blade...

    Unless of course, it did fall off and some random passer by really wanted a blade off a wind farm turbine. lol.

    For Vandalism theories, in all fairness, you need to be REALLY desperate for attention, because yes, there r plausable ways to do it, but they require a small element of planning, like equiptment etc. u gotta be pretty sad to prepare to steal a blade off a turbine.

  • well i dunno maybe ALIENS STOLE THE TURBINE BLADE, i mean a stick of metal is such valuable earthling technology, right?

    i think its a bit more likely that someone took the blade, maybe the first guy to notice and call the news? maybe nobody took the blade and the report just didn't bother to show it, i mean they didn't pick up on it and say anything like "but most sinister of all, the turbine blade is...MISSING" *spooky music*

  • "The apparently mysterious wrecking of a wind turbine in Lincolnshire was probably caused by mechanical failure induced by this weeks cold snap — and not aliens, as had been suggested — said Fraser McLachlan, chief executive of GCube, which insures wind farms."

    "Mr McLachlan said: We see things five or six times a year that look like this. It does happen that a blade will sometimes just come off a machine.

    - Times Online

  • that made headline news!!!???

    they must have been really short of stuff to broadcast. but you gotta hand it to them for the great music and voice over. :)

  • Love how everyone just decides instantly that something weird must be UFO's. Wise up people, I mean, seriously...

  • I love how when there isn't a definate answer straight away, people automaticaly jump to aliens.

    Also how profesional is this report, with that spooky music in the back ground lol.

  • lmao I was thinking the same thing. the music is hilarious. I bet they didnt put that in the TV broadcast.

  • Wise up!

  • ooooooooooo... spooky!

  • how about a design flaw plus weather effects? or vandalism? is that so hard to believe?

  • vandalism??? i dont think so, do you know how much power and effort it would take to do that much damage to a turbine i just cant imagine someone wanting to climb all the way up a turbine and some how able to damage it in such a way then climb all the way down. Then being able to escape from the evidence.

  • come on it would be easy, i can think of a way to vandalise it just off the top of my head: secure a rope or cable to one of the blades, either by lasooing it or with the help of a ladder. tie the other end to the back of a car and drive away. turbines aren't designed with that kind of damage in mind.

    if the turbine was already under stress because of poor design or heavy weather conditions then something like a large-ish bird flying into it could probably have this effect as well.

  • Well done have been rewarded to be in the guinness book of records 2009, for typing the most retarted commment on youtube! 1st of all you would see all the skid marks that the vehicle would have felt behind on the grass and a car would not pull one of them off those blades are built to survive harsh wind conditions! and where did the guy/gal but the balde? i surpose he or her stuck it in the boot of the car uh? right next to the long big ladder needed to climb up the turbine.

  • largish bird,lol,like what,a fucking terradactyl or maybe a dragon.why would someone want to vandalise a windturbine,it would be to dangerous to climb up with moving blades.maybe a helicopter crashing into this could cause this kind of damage but not some guy with a steel cable and a car.lasooing a moving blade with a steel cable,lol,arms like the hulk,how high are these things and a ladder,pretty big ladder.they are built to withstand more damage than this.

  • there are actually people out in the countryside who hate wind turbines. there's a campaign against them. it wouldn't be too hard if you were really determined to do it, and farmers would have the equipment. also wind turbines are not built to withstand anything except the wind, why would they be? with a strong force on a single blade, why shouldn't it snap off?

    in any case, forget the vandalism idea, way more likely are the weather conditions.

  • i got good ufos on tape over wirral and liverpool,last one was 3 weeks ago and my tapes go back over 5 years and one is in the day the time in summer,the ones at night are pink with a silver lightning inside of them and they open up,will show soon.

  • there were no burn marks, so it wasnt lightning, ice wouldn't of done it either because they all have sensors which tell it to stop spinning if there was a build up of ice. Also "The broken off blade is nowhere to be seen"...

  • ufo for real... dj poverello, ghost hunter

  • i just realised thats lincolnshire LOL, there is a caravan sight RIGHT next to that like, 2 minutes away, and i was staying there with my dad for a short holiday before haha, i wish i was there when that happend, i love abnormal stuff.

  • There is a video on youtube of a wind turbine smashing itself to pieces on here and this looks like thats whats happened here. The linked video shows more carnage but could have been what happened. /watch?v=Ty-vH42H_7k

  • Lightening? ...

  • Lightening would not Make a blade vanish! They are 2 ton in weight.

  • UFO could mean anything...

  • go lincolnshire lol.

  • sorry for stealing the blade i traded it in for money to pay my gas bill

  • bad idea for me to use that giant catapult then.

  • i think it span too fast and fucked up theirs videos of it happending if u look about

  • if it was a ufo were the hell is the ufo now obv it will have been damaged so it wudnt fly away

  • ..? are you on crack? do you think that they made a ufo out of plastic explosives or something so that it would explode on impact or someshit??

  • UFO means unidentified flying object. Not manned alien spacecraft lol!

  • it couldve been anything, and if we dont know for sure then its not justifiable to jump to any conclusions. I did an assignment a couple of years back looking into a proposed wind farm in Fenland and there were many who opposed for a variety of reasons. It couldve been activists who opposed the wind farm here who are responsible for this incident somehow.

  • yeeh could have been anything! like...a big bird maybe...that fancied part of a wind turbine...

  • yea then again a "big bird" is a pretty mental explaination.

    A big bird made of tungstun steel, perhaps. A big bird made of common bird material, no.

  • If it was UFO's do the wind turbines have some secret meanings LOL

  • probably pikies

  • How would they reach?

  • its probably pikies

  • hope its aliens you will never know

  • was it hell a beaver they dont climb and it would brobley kill it if it hit the beaver and how would it stop it. p.s it is only the top of it

  • Is it something to do with the partial introduction of Beavers to the area? I heard they can be quite destructive and often aggressive. Is that one of them you can hear 'calling' at then end of the clip?

  • the most interesting thing about this incident is the part of the turbine that was ripped off is missing, wierd because i just looked up how big it is and the missing blade measures 60feet long kind of hard to miss and if it broke off it would be near by would it not so logic sugests it was carried away by an impact or maybe beamed up hehe ;P

  • I have read all the messages posted for this video and it pisses me off how people can be so dismissive of the idea that it could be aliens im not saying that i think that but they are also very rude about it, it is very unlikely it was an RAF aircraft because the plane would have crashed if it was a meteor or a comet there would have been a huge crator in the ground if it was ice then why weren't the other turbines effective if anything the most likely explenation was it was aliens.

  • its kinda funny how you say "the most likely explenation was it was aliens."

    allthough weve never seen them or have had the priveledge to meet one personally...

    but having said that.. you're right!

  • Shit happens.

  • i bet the turbine is a UFO...lol =]

  • I would suggest that any aliens smart enough to travel to our planet would be too smart to crash into a wind turbine! funny stuff...

  • ice broke the blade off so it then hit the other one damaged it then some people have found it and robbed it for a laugh. no aliens. very disappointed that we have let a story like this start, leave the dodgy conspiracies to america.

  • Probably a secret of some sort, why wasn't the third blade found, well maybe this incident was being monitored and a clean up team were sent out to rid of any evidence, i mean after all if you were heading up a top secret operation would you want anyone finding anything out?

  • Exactly... Why the hell is everyone talking about aliens? UFO (Unidentified flying object), doesnt mean it was a spaceship from another planet, we got thousands of flying stuff in the planet earth.

  • It was me! I flew ino it in the TARDIS, nabbed it then chucked at at Bush where it magically turned into a shoe!

  • omfg! i did exactly the same thing except i didnt crash the tardis or rob proppelors!

  • lol!

  • i wudnt of thought it wuz a UFO if the oova blade wuz found but its gone hmmmmmmmm where could it be...?

  • Pikey UFO from the planet 'Blackstuff'. They'll do anything for a bit of scrap to sell for another four pack of Special Brew...

  • lol

  • 80% doesnt sound promising you know. so thers still another 20% that ur doubting urself.

  • Aliens, ther so typical of stealing bits of metal frm earth. HAHA.

  • i stole it

  • no joke iam 80% sure i seen a ufo last week

    because i was shutin ma blinds and somethin just threw across it was a big wie lite,n wen a told ma mum she looked at me as f i was on drugs and wen she looked oot the window it dissapeared???? creepy shit like!

  • Lets just act like adults and not talk about UFO's. I watched the news to hear about UFO's not any other important shit.

  • that night there was a giant cow seen flying across the sky of coure i could have been imagineing it

  • Interesting.

    It is possible the "missing" blade had fallen off if the turbine had simply broken, but how do you explain the bent blade?

    Also, IF these turbines were made to withstand extreme conditions, as all news reports confirm, no force of nature could have bent/broken it so ball lightning etc. is out of the question.... right? lol

  • I do actually have an interest and belief in UFO's. It could of been if there are all these witnesses. Who would bother to make this up?

  • yeah, ball lightning is out, because we dont get that in the UK.

    but where is the missing blade ?

    no-one could pick a blade up, they're like, 20 metres long, and weigh like, 300 kg

  • haha!

    I think that a giant made of stone came from the earth, bashed it a few times and lay back to sleep for another 100 years.

    That is the most obvious explanation.

    It took the missing piece and placed it under its body.

  • Yeah... one of the blades is missing! I smell the local RAF doing a bloody cleanup.

    Of course the MOD and the USAF have adopted an "oh so clever" policy of not investigating or commenting unless it's proven to be a national security threat. Meaning they don't have to answer bupkiss.. ever... about anything they don't want to. Good one lads. Remember who you serve and to whom you're accountable - at least notionally.

  • this played havoc with my Objectifilia!! i was married to one of them in 1997!!!!

  • I heard it was a cow!

  • I have to agree with aleathiel about the idiocy. He can't be a complete idiot if he is doing a degree and has an inadequate grasp of basic English grammar. I would suggest that perhaps he is an incomplete idiot, in common with most of the post contributors on YouTube... myself included.

  • It was more than likely somthing experimental thats test flight fuked up hit one of those windmills so they cleaned up the area and left

  • i know what ufo means thank you im doing a degree, im not a complete idiot! cant it just have, i dunno, "broken"... things "break" all the time from being badly built, not necessarily something flying into it ffs

  • Aleathiel, you must be struggling with your degree. Where is your basic punctuation [apostrophes] and use of an upper-case character after a finished sentence?

  • AND its still not been confirmed what the fuck it was, STILL NO EVIDENCE OF:

    Popped Balloon

    Plane Crash

    Broken Chinese Lantern

    Over Confident Chavs

    This story didnt hit the headlines in the papers or the news untill the thursday. It happene the sunday before. Cover up maybe? Why the fuck is the place cordoned off with police and sniffer dogs? Hmmm

  • I like the last one the most.

  • Aliens will be revealed to be real within the next five years. That's a fact

  • WOO HOO!

  • how do you know?

  • the Government have been keeping them secret for about half a century, or even longer, and I have a feeling that it's going to get to the point that soon things will be revealed

  • lol chavs got pissed on scrumpy and thought they were hard. Bunch of over confident drunk chavs+a wind turbine=a missing blade. lol

  • you know there are big rocks in space and sometimes they come down and hit the earth.

  • LOL usually that would leave a hole in the ground... or a crater.

    They already released that there were testing planes in that area and one became damaged.

  • dude if a plane hit that it would have crashd

  • There is an air base right near them. It would have been a plane or part of a plane that has come loose and hit the blades. The military doesn't like to be seen as though it has made a mistake, they would have gone and cleaned up the whole incident. Those blades are made of fiber glass and if something steel hit it at a high speed it would definately snap without doing harm to the plane. or part of the plane making the cleanup easy.

  • The military doesnt like to be seen as though it made a mistake?! What about iraq you idiot? Chinhook Helicopters and deathtrap Convoys are always on show when they have been blown up, they show this shit all over the news everyday yet your telling us that they wont show a light aircraft all mangled up. Open your fucking eyes man get real

  • youcutmelegoff, wow! Your knowledge about meteorites is rather impressive! However, have you considered, at time we don't have even the clarity, something hit the blade?

    All is open at time - inlcuding the possibility of a flying cow. (That's not a joke, one is depicted on Ecotricity's website)

    ;-))

  • IT WAS TIMECUBE

  • things tend to be built by who ever put in the cheapest quote using the most in-expensive parts.

  • all i've got to say that this is complete and utter bollocks

  • OMFG, i was there.. i was in a car driving past.. and my family heard a massive crash.. and we didn't know what it was.. i looked around and i saw some flying off REALLY REALLY fast it was black and it looked like a UFO plate thing..

  • rang3purelt, and you are sure, you didn't stress your fantasy too much?

    ;-))

  • how about this: the missing blade got separated from the hub due to metal fatigue or some other defect, hit the other blade as it fell - hence the bang - and then someone took it home as a souvenir.

  • In the United States and United Kingdom, a black project is a classified military/defense project, unacknowledged publicly by the government, military personnel, and defense contractors

  • Those aliens are really bad drivers

  • Probably a black project

    (google black project)
