UFO sightings: Edmonton ranks fourth among Canadian cities

Edmonton's fascination with flat, round objects doesn't stop with pizzas. Sure, the city came in eighth in the battle for the world's best pizza, but the Canadian UFO Survey released this week says Edmonton had the fourth-highest sightings of UFOs of any city in Canada. The city followed Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.

Among the provinces, Alberta also came fourth. Of Canada's 1,267 sightings in 2015 - the second-highest number on record-, Quebec had a whopping 450 , Ontario 314, and 224 in B.C. By comparison, wild rose country had a paltry 101 reported UFO sightings last year.

(Apologies for the language in the following videos.)




Edmonton's 36 UFO reports included orange and green orbs, blinking red and white and fuzzy lights moving across the sky, a "large blurry cloud," and a "bright round light," moving slowly, which "seemed to flatten in shape." On May 12 last year, a "large green fireball" broke into six pieces and mysteriously disappeared in the city. About a month later, on July 20, "several discs" in the sky "appeared to change colour and come in and out of focus." That report was one of only a handful accompanied by photos or video.

An 'exposure-enhanced' version of the tape appears to show shadows in the clouds
A UFO hunter claims to have been sent some 'mind-bending' footage showing 'a camouflaged machine' patrolling earth from the clouds.

According to the extra-terrestrial enthusiast, who narrates YouTube channel SecureTeam10, the video shows the mysterious craft in the sky over Frayser in North Memphis, Tennessee.

Upon first glance it is difficult to see anything lurking behind the clouds, but after studying an 'exposure-enhanced' version of the same tape some bizarre shadows emerge.

A strange flying object was observed near the Popocatepetl volcano on Thursday March 31, 2016.What could it be?

In the video, broadcast through the Twitter account of@webcamsdemexico, you can clearly see an unidentified flying object crossing the sky behind the volcanic peak.

What is this? Lens flare? airplane? or real UFO?

Volcanoes have been a favourite site for alien hunters over the years. This moving light above the Popocatepetl volcano in Mexico have got conspiracy theorists excited once again.

Are aliens studying Earth's geothermal activity so that they can understand how it works?

What are the unusual sounds keeping Salford, UK citizens awake?

Over the past week SalfordOnline.com has been contacted by numerous readers being woken in the early hours of the morning by unusual mechanical sounds.

There's loud, grating clanks lasting for a couple of seconds at a time but repeated every 15-20 minutes. Then there's the sound of gas under pressure - possibly being released. The earliest they've been heard is around 2am, and the latest at around 4am, in Weaste, Seedley and areas around Salford Royal hospital, but also as far away as Swinton and MediaCityUK.

Salford City Council said their Environment team had received multiple complaints in the last seven days about early morning noise, but that inspectors had not been able to trace what was causing such sounds.

Video capturing the middle-of-the-night noises has been posted in the SalfordOnline.com Facebook group here and here.
On 29 March Paul Boon wrote: "It's 3:39am is anyone hearing a really loud, noise from the Eccles area about every two minutes which is eerily mechanical in nature?" It's driving some to absolute distraction.

But the source of the noise has been impossible to pin down. "Every time we heard the noise you could feel the vibrations through the house," said one Grange Street resident. This audio - most audible towards the end of the clip - captures the strange sound.

Mysterious bright lights were spotted in the skies above the South West last night.

The phenomenon, described as a series of lights in a line, has left people as far away as Exeter perplexed.

Strange lights filmed over St Petersburg, Russia (VIDEO)

Weird triangular UFO hangs in the air over Russian town
Weird triangular UFO hangs in the air over Russian town
This intriguing footage shows a triangular UFO is hovering in the skies over Russian president Vladimir Putin's home city of St Petersburg.

The mysterious floating object was captured on camera by Vyacheslav Golovkin on Tuesday, March 22.

Three static glowing lights formed in a triangle formation are seen burning out from the overcast sky.

As if to prove some skeptics wrong, a plane is seen flying overhead to demonstrate that whatever it is, it is not your normal aircraft.

The object stays completely still throughout the two and a half minute video.


Comment: Actually, this cluster of lights isn't stationary - it does move down and to the right over the course of the video footage.

An explanation provided by locals is that they're flares attached to parachutes, used by the Russian military for flight training purposes.

Selfie of possible ghostly apparition in window reflection goes viral

The internet has been taken over by a "devilish" sorcery debate, and all because of this seemingly innocent selfie.

The picture, originally posted to the photo sharing website 9GAG, was shared by a Twitter user with the caption: "What kinda devilish thing is going on?"

While the photo seems normal at first, a closer look at the glass behind the couple shows what appears to be the woman's smiling reflection - facing the wrong way.

Some 17,000 retweets later (before the user made the account private), the people of Twitter responded with a bizarre array of reasons for the weird photo perspective.

Suspicions jumped from allegations of photoshop use to possible paranormal activity, and a surprising number of Lord Voldemort appearance suggestions.

Most people were just extremely unnerved by the image:

Mysterious footage appears to show a 'UFO' floating in the sky before descending to the ground. The bright white orb whips past a residential area before disappearing near the ground in Las Vegas, Nevada.

UFO enthusiast, Steven Barone uploaded the video to his YouTube channel, which features dozens of videos of 'aliens'.

"I saw where the UFO came from and caught it in the air just before it began to descend and eventually land," he captioned the video. "It lurked in the darkness at the base of the mountain and eventually showed itself again briefly. "I saw it for a second or two more back in the same spot it landed and then it disappeared. Amazing."

The disturbing story of the Silent Twins

June and Jennifer Gibbons
June and Jennifer Gibbons
"Zombies." That's the best descriptor medical experts who met identical siblings June and Jennifer Gibbons could come up with to describe the young women. They didn't speak. They walked in a synchronized fashion. They were the Silent Twins. And they unsettled everyone who came into contact with them.

Everyone, that is, except for Sunday Times investigative journalist Marjorie Wallace. Wallace befriended the twins in the 1980s and wrote about their shared life and its mysterious end in the 1986 biography The Silent Twins (that's a version of the cover above).

Born in 1963, June and Jennifer were moved by their Barbadian parents to a small town off the coast of Wales called Haverfordwest. Known for its tranquility, the town and the twins had but one thing in common: Quiet. Amazingly, the two had never spoken to anyone else their entire lives. Instead, they communicated with each other in a strange, birdlike language only they could understand.
