• First video is interesting other two are laterns, imho.

• the first video, the 16 second one, (!) was way too short. the lights looked like they were starting to turn around when it ended. fail.

• the first video debatable the ufo fleet i counted 6 hardly a fleet thought a fleet was over 20 ? third one too noisey fireworks goin yahoo bangs noises might be some sort of ball lightning not lanterns .

  • ball lightning comes with storms. ball lightning doesn't look like this whatsoever. since there were fireworks it was probably something related to that.

• Another sample of "Chinese lanterns" folks! You want to know how we tell? Get yourself some Chinese lanterns, light them up and let go. You will then take notice. Cheers.

• Did anyone else notice the flash of light at 9 seconds on the first video? Was that a firework or or something else? Could our elders be "Marking" something for us to look into? Any BOOM BOOMS planted in the city?

  • our "elders"? as in old people who have strayed out of their nursing homes to plant fireworks?

• The first video looks like a fake and too short, just cuts off. Second video looks real enough but nobody&#39;s commenting on anything. Third video looks like every other video of balls of light in the sky. Inconclusive.<br />SE

• I live in Chicago, so I wonder where these videos were taken. With so much activity going on, it&#39;s hard to discern whether these were truly UFOs or just a lot of sky rockets. I agree that the videos were too short as it would have seemed more strange if they had lasted a minute or longer. The figure of a triangle holding its position does seem odd because rockets usually light up the sky with

• Intriguing but inconclusive. The date is surely too good an opportunity for hoaxers to pass up as July 4 is now associated with the Alien Invasion movie &quot;Independance Day&quot;. The last clip certainly looks like Chinese lanterns, the other two....?

• replying too janets ball lightening where i live in scotland these small lightening balls are seen near earth line faults laylines etc but u could be right re the fireworks in the background though . all over britain these balls of lights are seen around mountains hills fields there have been books written on the subject here &amp; prob over in your country also think 3 videos are questionable ?

  • hey fellow scot! you are lucky to see so many lightning balls! maybe i should come over to your country to witness them!

• Looks like parachute flares to me. Parachute flares can hang in the sky for a longer period of time than a regular emergency flare can. During the 4th of July holiday weekends &amp; summer months there are going to be odd things lighting up the sky.
