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. 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.

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.

  • 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.

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

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

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

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

  • Actually my video editing software is worth $150.

    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!

  • thats not a UFO that is very much computerized 

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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...

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

  • More douche-bag fakers.
