A beachgoer in Florida could not believe his eyes when, while filming a storm developing off shore, he captured a curious UFO that zipped through the sky at an incredible speed. The remarkable moment reportedly occurred last month as Carmen Rich was vacationing in Fort Lauderdale with his family. Standing alongside his step-sister, Jennifer, as a thunderstorm erupted over the water, the young man decided to film the meteorological event with his cell phone. However, he wound up spotting something far more wondrous when a peculiar object streaked through the sky and caused him to exclaim "wow, did you see that."
"It was the fastest thing I've seen in my entire life," Rich later recalled, "and if it was going that fast, I figured it would be making some type of noise but it didn't." The young man noted that one can compare the speed of the unidentified object with a plane than was also in the sky during the storm and is traveling considerably slower than the anomalous object. Rich went on to recount how he immediately stopped filming after he saw the UFO "because I wanted to see if I actually did get it. I wondered if I was crazy" and indicated that "it was much bigger with my own eyes. The camera shows a light ball but in person it looked much bigger."
As for what the weird object could have been, Rich conceded being stumped by the oddity and mused that it could be alien in nature or perhaps some kind of clandestine technology possessed by the government. Regardless of what it was, the young man revealed that the sighting that him unnerved "that night I actually was scared" by what he had experienced. Since his unique vacation video was posted online, various theories have been offered for what was caught on film, ranging from the fantastic, such as an alien craft drawing power from the thunderstorm, to the prosaic, including a drone and a reflection. With that in mind, what do you think Rich captured during his visit to the beach? Weigh in with your thoughts at the C2C Facebook page.
