This "amazing" footage shows a diamond-shaped UFO which was spotted from inside a plane, as it flew 43,000ft above Texas in the USA.

The video has caused a stir among 'experts' who have drawn similarities between it and a notorious UFO sighting in 1980 that had been shrouded in secrecy.

This new clip was recorded by a man, identified only as Steve, who works as a director of aircraft maintenance for a corporate jet fleet in the USA.

He sent the footage to SecureTeam10, a group of UFO experts, who analyse the footage and share their findings online.


Tyler from SecureTeam said: "It was unbeknown to anybody at the time, but afterwards it was realised that this odd-diamond shaped UFO looks eerily similar to the UFO seen in one of the top ten most notorious and well researched UFO sightings known in the entire world."

The Cash-Landrum incident in December 1980 involved two women, Betty Cash and Vicky Landrum, who were travelling home from dinner with Vicky's seven-year-old grandson Colby when they witnessed a huge diamond-shaped object in the sky.

They reported it emitting flames from underneath and as Betty got out to invesitage she was left with terrible burns.

Both women say the object started to move away when 23 military-style helicopters approached it.

Speaking about the case, Tyler added: "This [the Cash-landrum] UFO sighting, and I will quote a well-known UFO researcher, is perhaps one of the most baffling and frustrating cases of modern times, in that it is shrouded in a maze of dead-ends, denials and even official deviousness by the government and military."

"It's amazing, and there is no doubt in my mind, that this UFO looks identical to the one recorded in the Cash-Landrum incident."
