The video, filmed on July 21 and posted on Youtube by user Zona Desconhecida, shows what appears to be a triangular shaped flying object hovering over the city. When the cameraman zooms in to get a closer look, the object appears to have chassis-like landing gear, which disappears later in the footage.The video, filmed on July 21 and posted on Youtube by user Zona Desconhecida, shows what appears to be a triangular shaped flying object hovering over the city.

“I never believed in UFO until this. When I filmed this unidentified object at first I thought it was a drone, but it did not have propellers. Then I thought it was a balloon but the trajectory was in a straight line and something similar to landing gear appeared,” the user wrote in a caption describing his footage.“I never believed in UFO until this.

The user later uploaded a second video giving an even better look at the flying object, which looks transparent on the sides and appears to slightly change its shape while flying.The user later uploaded a second video giving an even better look at the flying object, which looks transparent on the sides and appears to slightly change its shape while flying.
The two videos have received over 25,000 views on YouTube, and were reposted to X (formerly Twitter) and other social media platforms, where they quickly went viral. Netizens rushed to speculate on the nature and origin of the object, with some quick to label it the “clearest UFO video in history.”The two videos have received over 25,000 views on YouTube, and were reposted to X (formerly Twitter) and other social media platforms, where they quickly went viral.

Many analyzed its flight path, noting that it appears to inflate or flatten during the video. This led some to suggest the object may be a multidimensional living being. Other theories included a mechanized balloon, a drone, a kite, or an alien spacecraft.Many analyzed its flight path, noting that it appears to inflate or flatten during the video.

Several web users were adamant that the object was in fact a huge star-shaped balloon, explaining the ‘landing gear’ as image distortion due to the filming angle. Others argued, however, that the quality of the video is not good enough to make an accurate assessment.Several web users were adamant that the object was in fact a huge star-shaped balloon, explaining the ‘landing gear’ as image distortion due to the filming angle.

According to local media, the Brazilian Air Force was unable to verify the footage, with a spokesman saying they have “several hypotheses” but no “explanation” for the sighting at this point.According to local media, the Brazilian Air Force was unable to verify the footage, with a spokesman saying they have “several hypotheses” but no “explanation” for the sighting at this point.
What could it possibly be — a flying plastic bag, some kind of optical illusion, or actual aliens casually visiting Brazil? Place your bets. pic.twitter.com/UNty08KyQ6
