Daylight UFO Sighting in Yorkville, Illinois

[Bigmanwithbigguns]

thats not a UFO that is very much computerized

[jonnyeverything]

whoever made this is a faggot, i live in yorkville too so say somethin if u got a problem, waste of a video you remedial dorkvillian freak

[JacobChgo9]

Ok.. From what i can tell, That is a single properler aircraft with a radial engine BUT.. It's not a UFO you dumbshit its a white dot that you edited in there

[sinofallsinners]

ive seen things like this but at night time at a friends house in the back yard in southern illinois??? wierd stuff happens down there

[frankensteinmoneymac]

So you were just sittin' around flying RC planes while videoing your backs....with a "webcam" as you state in another reply. Yeah....that all makes perfect sense. Why, I go out and videotape my back while I fly RC planes all the time. And of course not being able to afford a real camera (I spend all of my money on those pricey RC planes) I have to lug around a laptop and use the webcam on it. So Sure....I believe this.....why not? I mean besides the obvious.

[foozbong]

I am gonna have to say that the spot moving in the upper right hand corner, is definitely not a flying object. Not believing in UFO's is weird, because UFO stands for unidentified flying object, if you dont believe in that, then you are basically saying you know EVERYTHING that flies. As well I would like to add, that the stool in the center must be on a different plane of existence, because it's shadow is cast in another direction than everything else. And I hear an airplane...

[TheJcp1234]

More douche-bag fakers.

[taylor1212eminem]

hahaahha that is the fakest thing ever

[TheFassold]

ive had this happen to me before .. so ill help you understand it a little / notice the object comes from off screen and leaves the screen from the edge only, / notice when it first shows up the auto focus zoomed in and out, ok / its a small bug , i have had this happen to me ..... i know you wish it was a ufo but it is just an insect .

[cdcd033]

i saw that same thing, i live in illinois. but when i saw it i thought it was a ballon and i stared at it for awhile and all the sudden it disappeared in mid air. it was the weirds thing ive ever seen 

[Crashland1947]

Must be looking for cows.

[watballs2020]

it must of left the gas on..

[boogertait]

FAKE

[terrythecensor]

At the risk of sounding stupid, I'll say this: even the RC plane looks fake. When I replayed the vid, I noticed 1) the two men have loooong, dark, crisply defined shadows but 2) the RC plane has a faint, blunt shadow. Also, the RC moves awful g-d damn slow. Maybe it looks better at its full resolution, but here it ALL looks fake.

[stevefoobar]

@terrythecensor

I apologize for the poor resolution but this was a webcam, not a high quality camera. This is the best resolution I have for this video. Also, for some reason the webcam goes in and out of focus--maybe because we walk in and out of the frame. At any rate, in this case, the camera going out of focus actually helps prove our case because if you notice the UFO also goes out of focus which it certainly wouldn't do if this was faked with some type of special effect overlay.

[terrythecensor]

@stevefoobar The Faking Hoaxer has his fake images go in and out of focus all the time. It can be done.

[Nintendodude1994]

@stevefoobar how would you know that? HM???

[stevefoobar]

@terrythecensor I WISH I had the CGI editing skills and software to fake all this!

[ReneeNme]

Yorkville = Population of about 17,000. Yeah, that says alot. lol

[stevefoobar]

Renee, I'm not sure what you are implying about the low population. What does that have to do with anything?

[scojoseattle]

@stevefoobar

Renee is saying in his/her own eloquent way, that he/she is a snot nosed elitist punk, who hasn't the capability or courage to trust anything that isn't familiar to him/her! Just another bigot!

[dav7612r]

Wow. A white dot. Easily created with any video editing software worth $99.

[stevefoobar]

I do a fair amount of video editing. If you watch closely the object goes in and out of focus as the camera goes in and out of focus. This was a cheap webcam that was having trouble auto-focusing. If this were a simple effect it wouldn't look like this. It would look pretty consistently sharp I would think. Also at some point I think a bird flies past and goes right IN FRONT OF the distant object.

[Bford11210]

trust me i live in yorkville and there never have been a ufo Here

[jeffgrave]

I have seen three UFO's in the Yorkville area in 4 years. I fly radio controlled airplanes (a lot), and guess what I am doing 2 hours at a time-looking at the sky! If you add up all that looking, statistically you will see something.

[TrutherD1]

There are real UFOs above our heads practically every day spraying chemtrails... my chan for fake plane ufos that land as meteors... no joke.

[stevefoobar]

Actually my video editing software is worth $150.

[Clonetrooper1019]

btw its not such a big city but its nice to live in., nice view, lotta snow i got to build a igloo using a quarter of the snow in my yard and that is not a ufo its just the fucking bad quality on your camera and sound effect

[Clonetrooper1019]

i live there but crap a ufo my brother would faint

[clsbasketball7]

right. they just happened to be video taping when a "ufo" decided to show up. nerds..

[stevefoobar]

Some of you people just don't seem to get it. We ALMOST ALWAYS video tape our radio controlled flying sessions. We just didn't "happen" to be video recording with a UFO showed up!

If you search YouTube, you will see LOTS of radio controlled flying videos from my brother and I. Sometimes we mount cameras in the planes and sometimes we video record from the ground.

[emadmoussa]

It doesn't seem very convincing to me, I'm open to to explanation though!

[loveisnow2]

When we feel fearful, we are not self-confident. Fear is a killer. When we feel fear, we feel like we are not good enough.Feel The Fear and Do It Anyway.Self-confidence comes from walking through our fears.Every time we walk through a fear, no matter, how small we build our self-confidence.if you walk through your fear conquered your fear! and take the action, your self-confidence will improve,And now your comfort zone has expanded. honor yourself for being brave enough to take action on it!

[loveisnow2]

What I saw this time was like a giant firefly, just like your orbs but at night and with a much brighter light, like a clear light bulb, streaking across the sky at nly about 30 ft. over my head. Timing was perfect with my thoughts and things happening in my life here. I don`t fear them now so seems they are coming closer, toying with me. I believe you have to ask for contact with pure intent and no fear.

[loveisnow2]

below is a reply to jusgoodmusic , 9 mos. ago. You can see tiny trails from real ones as well which are present here. I saw several once in a forrest. They came through the trees on the rd I came in on, no other way in, up at big bear which is the begginning of the snake river. Because they frightened me so much I mentally told them to please go away and they slowly went away. Later high in the sky they followed me for some distance. This was in 1972. Last month i saw something else, close.

[loveisnow2]

that is tottaly real looking, i`ve seen one just like it over salt lake city in 1974 while driving down the hwy. Although the one mom and i saw did vertical turns in a split second at a very fast rate of speed. wow, mind bending, jaw dropping.all you people yelling fake havent seen the real thing in person, mabe just videos on utube.

[stevefoobar]

Thanks Love.

[butlincat]

now i relook at it it looks a bit cgi

[westleykevin]

HA! a peice of a toy! hahahahahaha :D

[stevefoobar]

westleykevin, I assume English isn't your first language, which is fine of course, I just don't know what you mean by your comment.

[butlincat]

perhaps its a radio controlled ufo..the guy controlling it on the moon or somewhere

[stevefoobar]

What?  Please use complete sentences.

[CupcakeCarebear]

thats fake

[stevefoobar]

I wish it were. I still have nightmares sometimes.

[polkadotmonkey182]

koolio! i live in yorkville 2! did u guys make that at the new middle school??

[stevefoobar]

Well sort of. It's actually closer to the huge Yorkville water tower where we usually fly but sometimes we fly closer to the middle school too!

[jusgoodmusic]

I was at a religous function and God appeared and walked across the surface of a river to shake hands and greet the worshippers. A group of youtube skeptics immediately started pointing out that God was a hoax because he  apparently didn't know how to swim.

[YllenNoslen]

lol

[dhudson369]

doesnt even look like them two guys even knew it was there bet they got home watched the footage and was like oh sh*t

[UniversalLight91]

ok

1. who the hell flys R/C planes and records it

2. when u too walked away one of you fiddled with the camera

3. why the hell would the white object start dancing infront of your camera.

come on guys dont fall for people like this i beleive but dont beleive everything u see...

sorry to say it people but FAKE!!!!

[stevefoobar]

Claim #1. WE FLY RC PLANES AND RECORD IT. If you bothered to look at my channel "stevefoobar" you would have seen at least 4 other flying videos from us. We've made many more.

Claim #2. I don't know what "fiddling" you are referring to but no one touched the camera the entire time it was recording

Claim #3. We don't know but it certainly is NOT an out-of-focus bug

[ReneeNme]

I was sitting here watching this darned video with my jaw hanging open,then at the 1 minute mark when "whatever" that thing was that came flying out of it I was "OMG what was THAT!!It kind of does an arc around the other object.Amazing video,absolutely amazing.

[forus]

Conclusion is: if you ever in your life should happen to see a UFO or something else unexplainable, and best of all; you might get photos or video of it - never post it on YouTube! You will never be believed! The word "fake" must be the most used word in YouTube's Commentary field...

[stevefoobar]

Yes, good advice, that's for sure!

[NoSkeptics]

This looks legit and I do know of the sloppy craptube recoding. This was definitely not a man made craft trying to watch two guys fly a n R/C plane doing a crash landing. Good video!

[DarthJ3W]

I live by Yorkville :D

[kath282]

Yes between 59 and 1.00 a black object comes out and flies to upper right, then the white object takes off upwards straight after. Interesting video, well done. Bet you guys kick yourselves every time you look at it that you didn't look up! LoL

[stevefoobar]

I'm not sure what you mean by "well done". Nothing was "done" except turning the camera on to record us flying!

[stevefoobar]

Please remember to click on the "watch in high quality" link just under the "Views" counter to see a more clear version. Sorry about the audio buzz--it was a problem with the webcam and the 12 volt power inverter I used to power the laptop that the webcam was connected to.

[imeodimos]

How do you know how it is a UFO

If you see a light you will record the

light and at YouTube you will say

I found a UFO

[stevefoobar]

I don't know it's a UFO, I'm just assuming it is because it's Unidentified and appears to be a Flying Object (UFO).

[jusgoodmusic]

I have viewed this video many times. I still see a black object at 1:00 materializing from the white object. Due to the frame skipping it could be bird coming from behind the white object. I wonder if the authors would consider e-mailing the video to interested parties?

[loveisnow2]

:) My thought when I read your comment was mabe they are trying to play by creasting their own olittle plane to fly lol Thats the way I see these objects, as playful. Also in my experience they are very sensitive to emotions.

[Conflict2525]

This video has has so many obvious traits that it is a fake. Hell of a good try though. Toggle between 1:17 and 1:19 and witness utter sloppiness. Think the other guy said it right maybe ten more mins you would of noticed.

[jeffgrave]

I do not see the UFO flight (@ 1:17 to 1:19)being "sloppy". I wish the U.S had this kind of "sloppy" technology.

[stevefoobar]

What you are seeing and claiming is "sloppiness" is actual a problem with the way YouTube uploads and recodes video. If you notice for example, it jumps from frame 1:17 directly to 1:19 without stopping at 1:18first. It does this in several places on the timeline. There is nothing I can do about this. I wish there were some easy way I could let people see the original video I'm seeing which has none of these artifacts of YouTube and of course is much clearer.

[cat22203]

I think you should also contact a paranormal society that specializes in orbs, spirits, light beings, etc because it looks like the stuff I see, and, trust me, they are not UFOs (tangible aerial objects or technological devices)! You may have cought something completely different here and these societies won't be able to give any explaination because it may be out of their 'league'...

[bottleslingguy]

It was unaffected by the haze. Fake.

[stevefoobar]

Huh?

[bottleslingguy]

I know it's a clear sky but there would be some change in its brightness as it went into the distance, not to mention the size never changes. It just looks fabricated, not real to me. What ever happened with the report? What did you expect they would do anyway? They're the LAST people I would show this to.

[stevefoobar]

The Yorkville Police basically thought we were idiots.

[ReneeNme]

If you watch it in high quality it sure does change size.

[bottleslingguy]

compare it to my footage called White Lights Blue Sky. that's a real ufo.

[ReneeNme]

I did watch it and all I saw was one vague white spot and birds flying about bottleslingguy.

[bottleslingguy]

Did you download the original footage instead of relying on YT quality? You can see a lot more of it dancing around. One of the early comments said it was some of the best he's seen. A "vague" white spot that's stationary in the first second and when the camera is pointed up again it is flying away at tremendous speed. That's what makes me think this is fake, it's too planned and the object never fades or changes brightness. That's a sure sign of a hoax. Mine is real no matter how vague to you.

[Sansash01202]

I think this is fake. This thing was flying backwards and forwards and these guys didn't notice anything. Also why have a video just sitting running like that? especially when the 2nd guy has his hand held one - doesn't add up.

[stevefoobar]

Our original idea was to fly with our electric planes with 3 cameras and then later edit the clips together seemlessly. The webcam that shot this video was on my car and was purposely stationary and was supposed to be a shot of us flying our airplanes. The other camera which you can't see is off to the left and my brother was supposed to fly toward it, which he did but actually hit the tripod with his plane, which is why we laughed and walked off to the left.

[stevefoobar]

I was then shooting with a third hand-held camera as you can see in this video. When we walked away from the web cam on the car, we didn't care because we knew it was running continuously and we would edit it later. The other two cameras didn't pick anything up. Only the Logitech web cam did.

[Sansash01202]

If that's true you need to contact a news desk. Of course they'll have it analysed to hell, but if what you say is true you could have a wider audience and make some money.

[jusgoodmusic]

Not to be a nag, but another thought on this video. The camera refocused not due to the object coming into view but because the fellow with the controller moved out of view. He was quite close so that would trigger refocus. Not the white object.

[jusgoodmusic]

Another comment on this video. Actually, I see two objects in this video. A black spot at:30 sec and another at 1:00 coming from behind the white object. At first I thought it to be a bird and could well be. But it just seemed to materialize from the white object and fly off at speed to the right. Odd. This could be a fake, but I am not ready to say that. Too many unanswered questions not to lend this video some serious thought.

[jusgoodmusic]

As a test of the validity of this video. Would the author of this video please state the exact date and time the police report was made. Most Police departments now post their call logs online. Should your PD do so, viewers can access the info online to provide proof that your report to the police is valid. Filing a false police report is an offense, no matter what the subject matter is.

[markous57]

It showes up after the man leaves the frame and leaves before he comes back and the returns after he leaves. It is eather fake or it was a very shy alien. ( PLEASE )

[CycloneGU]

It was still in the frame when one of the guys showed up (his shadow moving) on the first time it left. I want to believe there is something else out there...could this be the proof?

[markous57]

The camera re-focus was faked and the ufo was added to blank frames so they didn't have to act like they saw it. I under stand that you are looking for proof but this is not it. Keep looking there might find it.

[CycloneGU]

I'm no expert, just pointing that out, that's all.

[markous57]

Another tip is if you are unsure. Check the other videos made by that person to see if they show the ability to pull it off. eg. video fx, animation, or 3-d work.

[jusgoodmusic]

To Author of this video. YouTube is the worst possible place to place a video. Send it to MUFON for analysis.Also edit out the Boo Bird comments so that only rational comments can be viewed. Sorry you had to hear from the small minds.

[4theloveofitall]

Decent job on the fake UFO, but you're not going to fool any experts.

[stevefoobar]

I WANT someone to explain it! The Illinois UFO organizations I mentioned are looking into it.

[sacha4you]

Did you produce the vid with a remotly controlled 'UFO' or by a CGI software?

;-))

[youeffohs]

Frames :26 - :27 are fishy.. Should'a took that extra ten minutes to make it look right >.>

[stevefoobar]

First of all, these are seconds, not frames--a "frame" is 1/30 of a second.

Secondly, fishy? I don't see anything fishy about them...this is just what I saw afterward when viewing the video.

[m0ds]

frame rate of object seems different to that of you and your brother

[jeffgrave]

If you can tell the difference between frame rates using your eyes, then you are an alien!

[m0ds]

i am :) I work with film

[stevefoobar]

My brother and I were flying our radio controlled airplanes in an open area in Yorkville like we always do but we were shocked when we watched the video afterward and saw something we can't explain. I don't believe in UFOs but I can't explain this. We were using a Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 connected to a laptop.

[stevefoobar]

This camera has an auto-focus feature and you can actually see the camera have trouble focusing a couple of times. You can see the object in the sky go in and out of focus with the rest of the scene as the lens tries to adjust. At first we thought it was an airplane reflecting in the sun because you can hear an airplane engine in the background but not after seeing how this object is moving! We didn't see a thing at the time because we were so distracted with flying our model airplanes.

[stevefoobar]

We filed a police report with the Yorkville police immediately afterward and will be filing an official report with APRO (Aerial Phenomena Research Organization) and CUFOS (J. Allen Hynek Center for UFO Studies), both in Illinois.

[sonthi57]

I vote for hoax !

[psytrancedan]

IS THE PILOT PISSED OUT HIS FACE?

What a crappy hoax.
