UFO Spotted Off California In Leaked Navy Video [Video]

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

• Viral footage showed an unidentified flying object spotted by the US Navy above the waters in San Diego, California.
• The incident happened in July 2019, as confirmed by the Defense Department.
• Two former Navy pilots shared their experience with the said object.

A newly viral video from the US Navy appeared to display an unidentified flying object (UFO) that went off into a sea in San Diego, California, per footage secured by a documentary filmmaker.

According to filmmaker Jeremy Corbell, the footage, which was shared to NBC News, was documented by Navy aircraft in July 2019 and was saved in the USS Omaha’s Combat Information Center.

The short video shows a rounded-shaped object hovering above the San Diego waters for a few minutes then abruptly fading away.

“It splashed,” military personnel could be heard saying in the clip.

The clip was confirmed by the US Defense Department, saying that a Navy member documented the incident. The department said that it would be examined by the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force, a unit created by the Pentagon last year to study the “nature and origins” of such objects.

Few days after the video went viral, two ex-Navy pilots were interviewed on CBS News’ 60 Minutes, revealing that they were deployed to probe “multiple anomalous aerial vehicles.” Accordingly, the UFO had gone down about 80,000 feet in less than a second.

Cmdr. Dave Fravor, a co-pilot of the Navy then, told 60 Minutes that staffers discovered a “little white Tic-Tac-looking object” flying above the water before it was gone. Next thing they know (just seconds later), their ship tracked the object’s location about 60 miles away based on their radar.

In another interview, top defense official in the previous administrations Christopher Mellon said that there was “a lot of continuity” going on with regard to recent UFO reports and previous reports of similar incidents way back decades.

“What we’re seeing are a number of distinct and different things,” Mellon said. “Sometimes we’re seeing a 50-foot object that can travel at hypersonic speeds and seemingly go into orbit or come down from altitudes of potentially above 100,000 feet.”

He argued that reporting such cases had become a stigma, hence becoming a reason why witnesses have remained mum about the matter. The statement was similar to the remark made by Lt. Cmdr. Alex Dietrich during his interview with 60 Minutes.

“Over beers we’ve said, ‘Hey man, if I saw this solo, I don’t know that I would have come back and said anything,’” Dietrich said. “Because it sounds so crazy when I say it.”
