This captivating footage of what is claimed to be a UFO filmed hovering over the Thames Estuary in London has left watchers in awe.  The video was captured by a motorist traveling through London and posted on his YouTube channel space99dude.

The 53 second clip that was posted 2 days ago appears to be an authentic UFO.  Now I'm not a professional when it comes to analyzing video or anything, but this has a legit look to it.  The object is pretty far off and hard to make out, but it's clearly not a plane or any kind of flare or tower light.  The camera is shaking as well making it harder to really scrutinize, but the shakes seem to match up so it doesn't look super imposed or anything like that.  And the road noise all sounds pretty normal.  Space99dude says:

ufo over london thames estuary seems too bright for a boat and looked like it was above the water.It was a very long way off and I was at full 40x zoom hence the shaky footage. I always carry a camcorder in my car as saw something a few years ago and think more people should be looking and keeping cameras at the ready .

The footage has caused a big buzz in the UFO community, but many skeptics are passing it off as a prank.  And that's just the truth.  On video anything is possible, it's all a matter of how you perceive it, what you take out of it!

So you decide, real or fake?

London is a UFO hot-spot, there's been lot's of UFO activity in the area for a very long time.  And it seems that more and more UFO sightings are popping up.  With technology like cell phones that have camcorders, catching them on video is becoming easier.  But with video editing technology, we can make anything our imagination comes up with and put it on video then release to the world on sites like YouTube.

Can you trust this space99dude?  I have no idea, that's up to you.

What I do know is with the many videos and stories surfacing, UFO's being real is becoming a more and more plausible.  Especially with things hitting so close to home, like the video caught by our own Tommy the Hacker and Cadillac Cruz of the strange noise blaring over the skies of Amarillo.
