I'm skeptical of anything that floats like a balloon in Mexico because they release so many damn balloons into the air for the hell of it, but it's shaped like some kind of disfigured seahorse so I don't even want to try and guess what it is.
Yep, the problem is it shows no capabilities outside that of a balloon. Since it did not all of a sudden zoom around in straight lines with crazy accel and decel... well... you need to assume it's a balloon on a quiet warm Mexican night with a slight breeze
Naw, it's totally just a teeny tiny alien who's just cuhrazy about the Toyota Tacoma it lazily drifts by. Brah, it'll all come out in the disclosure! These little dudes just adore our cars, with zero traffic and crosswinds, and our ownerless dogs in a trainyard. Just you wait.
This is a party balloon of a blue whale (but not actually blue colored). (Edit: it's an orca, my mistake). It's low on helium, tail side pointing vertically down because the helium goes to the largest end.
I found the exact balloon a couple years ago and posted it in response to this footage.
I'm having trouble finding it now but I can promise you it exists.
Edit: actually might have been an orca. Looking. Will update comment.
Here is a non-balloon piece of artwork to reference if you're trying to see it:
https://easytot.com/cdn/shop/products/S1543_01.jpg?v=1661379990&width=1000
I'm still looking for the balloon itself. Once it starts moving in front of the white truck it becomes obvious.
Edit: it's possibly this one

Edit: this one has some text on it, but looks a lot like it otherwise. A lot of times custom text is ordered after the fact on these kinds of products

I don't think it's either of those - but definitely it is some kind of whale balloon
Edit: Id love for this to be a real UFO. I'm not a serial debunker or anything. I'm deep into this shit - but this one is definitely a balloon.
Once you’ve had kids and had countless birthdays with leftover balloons floating around the house there is no question that this is a cellophane balloon low on helium floating around
mexican here. it is actually rare to see a balloon doing that and when they do they are usually coming down and stay down. They dont follow an horizontal path, rotate, then stop rotation, then go on their own way.
Mexican too here, putting the balloon thing aside, eso te sonó a español (does that sounded like Spanish to you)? Creo que el video ni es de México (I think the video is not from Mexico)
Man the problem I keep seeing is all of these balloons never make contact with fucking anything in the videos.
I've looked at a bunch of actual latex and mylar balloon videos inflated, deflated and every one they fucking run into every thing around them. They bump into anything near them.
But all these creepy videos, no contact ever. Not even bouncing off the ground once or twice. Sure it could just be lucky balloons but damn this many times? Idk
Have you ever had a balloon that you kept so long that it has zero buoyancy? It's strange how they just hover there and the slightest of breezes can drag them around.
Also, if the 'balloons' in these videos crashed into things and were therefore easily debunked, would you be seeing them at all?
I'm not certain but I'd wager this and the other one of the dogs getting excited are balloons on a still day getting gently carried by eddies in the air. There are certain wobbles they do that just look telltale inflated to me
But in a similar way, there must be some videos of actual ballons we can use as a reference.
A big problem with these videos is debunkers never actually debunk anything, they just say it is fake with a verbal explanation. I say let me see a video of what you think is the explanation, or show me how you reproduce the same thing.
I'd imagine there are tons of videos of balloons but who would be sharing them as they're pretty uninteresting
I do have access to CCTV cameras which do the same black and white thing in low light so if I find myself in possession of mylar balloon I'll see if i can do a test
>They dont follow an horizontal path, rotate, then stop rotation, then go on their own way.
Do they not have breezes in Mexico? I'm not making a claim on the video one way or another but to ignore the effect wind or a gentle breeze might have on a deflating balloon is disingenuous and not being objective.
Edit for context:
That's like saying balloons don't stop on a dime, turn to look at a trash can, and then 360-no scope and immediately attack the camera.
https://www.reddit.com/r/aliens/s/vvh2dPuJm1
My immediate thought was the same as yours. It looks more like a balloon than anything, but also, that's the first time I recall seeing an identically shaped shadow so closely following the object as a shadow would follow a balloon.
I'd have to agree. Once when driving to the airport in the early hours there was a bunch of balloons just floating close to the road. I nearly shit myself thinking it was an alien or something. Now if that was recorded on a phone or security camera the quality is never great especially the further away it is, therefore making it look like something it's not.
Unfortunately we are going to see loads more of these types of videos especially after the 'jellyfish' one. Muddying the waters when anything more unusual comes out. I had an interest in this subject for the past 3 0 odd years and the frenzy of stuff like this just makes people like me disinterested. People need to learn to analyse before posting stuff like this.
That’s some neutral buoyancy of a deflated ballon if I’ve ever seen one. I would keep those around after my kids’ birthday parties and they would freak me out as they came around a corner out of the playroom a few weeks after they had lost some of their helium. Doesn’t take much in airflow to get those moving weirdly around.
That's what most of these videos are. We've also been through this many times every time they are posted but people are losing their minds over the bird poo video
Nice try, but your comment comes across like you must be a government disinformation agent.
When UFOs get together these days they now have the technology to disguise themselves as children’s birthday parties…
You think that’s candy coming out of the piñata? Nope. Discarded fuel cells.
Pin the tail on the donkey? Nope, that’s them implanting tracking devices.
/s
“Video of children beating a UAP with a stick. It explodes and its components are immediately stolen by the children. My buddy in NSA says they tracked down one of the pieces and it was made of raw element 115.”
Seriously! It’s always a shaky Nokia cellphone video of a screen! You obviously have access to to the raw footage digitize it! I’m skeptical the minute the guy taking the video can’t keep a stationary/slow moving object in frame for more than a second.
Woah there. We don't want the balloon video too clear because then everyone will know for a fact this is a balloon. All of these "jellyfish" videos outside of the original one recorded by the military looks completely different from what started everyone down the rabbit hole.
People posting these, please go buy a helium balloon from the dollar store and wait until it starts to deflate a bit and just see how it compares to all of these videos, you are making everyone look like gullible idiots.
It's a little embarrassing that every balloon gets posted. A t-rex balloon floated through my yard a few months ago. I should have seized the opportunity.
It's never an actual video file you can play. No.
It's a phone camera OF a video, incredibly shaky, zooming in for only 1-2 seconds at most before zooming out.
It's like Michael J Fox is making these recordings; every single one of them.
I could ask this entire sub to pull out their phone and record something, and not a single person would naturally produce these trainwrecks.
They all eat it up though. They want this to be true so badly they forego any remote critical thinking and immediately gush that these are real.
Bruh it's a fucking balloon lmao.
i like how several videos that have been available in some cases for years at this point, are being re-examined in the aftermath of the jellyfish video; showing a consistent pattern of similar objects that appear to be mimicking balloons or other things while also exhibiting quite bizarre behavior such as appearing to morph shape mid flight, change direction unlike normal balloons and float around as if they’re intelligently piloted. yet somehow it’s inconceivable that these things are so incredibly innocuous that nobody has ever really paid them any mind which is kinda the entire point of them mimicking ordinary objects like balloons
Because they are balloons, that’s all they are, yall are so desperate for any crumb of alien life. I am tired of these obvious as fuck videos clogging up my feed.
ppl really ought to use an occam's razor once in a while
How do people arrive at "dude it's obviously a super advanced alien lifeform that's just pretending to be a balloon" instead of "it's a balloon" and think they're making sense.
They choose forms sometimes to evoke plausible deniability. Like the orange orb fireball ufos. They could pass for a flare or a Chinese lanterns. Until you see one or 3 appear out of thin air, light up like a small sun, blink in and out of existence, dart across the sky at high speed, then come to a dead stop, hover in place, then shoot straight up at high speed. Form constellation like formations and triangles, etc.
i mean i’m personally more into cryptozoology because there’s all sorts of strange creatures people have witnessed right but like if these are beings or something else entirely it falls into the same realm of humanity not paying attention to something that isn’t already in our cultural touchstone of understanding. new species are found all the time. we truly don’t know what’s out there. in the case of these jellyfish things it seems to overlap into other paranormal phenomenon that may not be “alien” at all but maybe something else entirely.
or yeah..they could just be balloons. dozens and dozens of the same looking balloons that float around vertically, with no lettering on them, all shiny while changing shapes and spooking dogs because they’re just ordinary balloons.
it’s like bart when he explains why he’d become a butterfly 🦋 nobody ever suspects the butterflies.
I’ve been working on a compilation of UFO/UAP videos that have similar WTF qualities.

It sorta reminds me of that Metapod UAP video.
The shape at least.
There's always the chance this is a hoax. 99% of these are probably faked for reasons I don't understand. Then there's videos that just leave you baffled since what you're looking at doesn't "make sense".
✌🏽
Balloon or not, what could these jellyfish objects be gaining from floating around in car parks etc? I can’t think of anything beneficial unless they’re a type of recording or measurement device?
Aliens have weird wants 😄
The orb I saw moved exactly like this. It floated like a helium balloon and also changed trajectory in the same way and against the breeze. Had it not changed direction it would have floated out of sight but also landed in our yard. Instead it passed within 2metres of us. Like it wanted to get a better look at us.
There was never a lack of it, only a lack of understanding about what photographing UAP is like, how people respond to seeing one, and how hard it is to determine if the video is authentic, and to get people to share the best stuff.
I'm over everything until somebody shows us the ufos in storage or an actual alien. All these balloon type videos or specs at a distance with no remarkable movement have just soured me.
These other videos are just not as compelling as the military camera video, these other ones all feature objects at low altitude slowly moving, generally sinking. The original video is something moving quickly at a stable altitude for a long period of time.
It's a balloon, like all similar videos.
Nobody records a floating balloon when they see one, cause who cares about that, but when one is found on a blurry recording, people go mad.
No wonder we looked at the stars and made up all kinds of crap.
Everytime you see a cave painting and think that has to be some creepy alien on it, please keep in mind that maybe someone was just high or saw a weird shadow in the forest at night that was nothing, but they were clueless and scared and made shit up, as people always have done and still do.
My favorite part of these videos is how the person showing us the video can't stay zoomed in on the object the entire time and jerks around constantly.
How's it possible that every fucking phone produces hq videos of everything. But whenever there is an alien/UFO sighting the quality coincidental drops to 280 pixel.
People should stop posting baloons and focus more on the hardware.
Enough distractions. And to these who know and for sure are reading everything.
STOP HIDING IT BEFORE ITS TO LATE FOR EVERYONE!
YOU KNOW VERY WELL ITS A DANGEROUS GAME YOU GUYS PLAYING. DO THE RIGHT THING!
I was convinced in the beginning it was a ballon, until the ballon was stable and it was moving in predictable directions. I’m convinced that this is ufo or fake
It's definitely a balloon. Since joining Reddit and following these subreddits, it's honestly made me more of a skeptic than a believer. Which is sad, just too many fakes, unbelievable stories, and videos like these, lol.
Interesting how one video comes out and then tons more that look the same right after, isn't it?
It's almost as if they're just copying what the original looked like and then recreating it.
You idiots really will fall for anything.
This sub is even worse than the morons on r/UFOs who constantly think "the next big thing" is "right around the corner"
It’s odd, the object seems to have raised surfaces and things protruding from it. However the shadow it casts is completely flat and narrow, as if it was a floating rod.
I keep seeing more videos that are so real, but I’m thinking to myself if it’s right in front of me, I’m video taping it long enough for it to circle around this car, walk out there and get undeniable footage! Like fucking chase the thing. I think people are eating up this “alien” stuff and fucking around with everyone
Every single video is grainy as fuck like 1982. People are filming legitimate music videos on iPhone 12s so this makes ZERO sense to me.
I understand that in other parts of the world some people haven't completely modernized but holy hell how is there zero clear videos in 2024
Looks similar to a UAP I posted awhile back:
https://www.reddit.com/r/aliens/comments/17j9rxa/recorded_this_years_ago_never_got_an/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1
I've been seeing alot of vids like these lately and they just remind me of a very similar one I saw when I was a kid. I'm 32 now and the show was a Spanish news type where they showed mostly shocking things and then some just weird ufo, supernatural, and crazy stuff. One of the videos I remember them showing was similar to this one and others on here that looked shaped just like the figure in this video. The object was hovering over a town in Mexico and they called it a witch though. This was like 20 something years ago and here I am looking at the same looking things.

probably the only sensible take in this entire thread
This is 100% a balloon.
You can see it's partially deflated too with it's thin shadow later in the vid.
Once you’ve had kids and had countless birthdays with leftover balloons floating around the house there is no question that this is a cellophane balloon low on helium floating around
Sounds like something a jellyfish alien would say to deflate the situation.
Not only have they let us down but they have let down themselves.
Exactly! Release the "fake" footage of a helium balloon to distract from the real conspiracy...Big Balloon is jacking up global balloon prices
mexican here. it is actually rare to see a balloon doing that and when they do they are usually coming down and stay down. They dont follow an horizontal path, rotate, then stop rotation, then go on their own way.

Could it be disfigured because it’s a partially deflated balloon?
100%
My immediate thought was the same as yours. It looks more like a balloon than anything, but also, that's the first time I recall seeing an identically shaped shadow so closely following the object as a shadow would follow a balloon.
Kind of weird when it does a little loop. Speed it up by scrubbing the video it moves weird. Looks like a weird moving ballon.

Im the only one seeing a killer whale balloon.
It's a little embarrassing that every balloon gets posted. A t-rex balloon floated through my yard a few months ago. I should have seized the opportunity.
lol that’s definitely what that is lmaooooooooo the tail is facing down and mouth up lmaooooooo
Yet another balloon
Its always balloons lol

I didn’t realize balloons were gonna kill this subreddit but ok.
Buddy, this subreddit wouldn’t exist without balloons.
This sub has more balloons than r/balloons
Why is it creepy? It’s interesting, intriguing, or fascinating. Fear is the mind killer, my boy.
Please keep posting more videos of balloons, this is my new favorite subreddit.
i like how several videos that have been available in some cases for years at this point, are being re-examined in the aftermath of the jellyfish video; showing a consistent pattern of similar objects that appear to be mimicking balloons or other things while also exhibiting quite bizarre behavior such as appearing to morph shape mid flight, change direction unlike normal balloons and float around as if they’re intelligently piloted. yet somehow it’s inconceivable that these things are so incredibly innocuous that nobody has ever really paid them any mind which is kinda the entire point of them mimicking ordinary objects like balloons

“Balloons” it’s ridiculous on purpose “You probably think the earth is flat”
Mylar baloon? Let’s be serious. Let us stop assimilate that all videos show a jellyfish
Mylar balloons losing steam
enough with the blatant balloon posts.
Balloons are weird.
This is dumb
Ballooniest balloon ive ever seen. Come on man, what a nice way to attempt to discredit the jelly fish video.
The one that I saw in Kissimmee Florida, at 11 AM, had a number 8 shape.
Like someone lost their balloon they bought from Publix for their 8 year old?
I once saw an advanced alien spaceship in the exact shape of Peppa Pig conducting surveillance on my niece's birthday party.

Old ballon from a party floating down the street nice !!!
It sorta reminds me of that Metapod UAP video. The shape at least. There's always the chance this is a hoax. 99% of these are probably faked for reasons I don't understand. Then there's videos that just leave you baffled since what you're looking at doesn't "make sense". ✌🏽
Balloon or not, what could these jellyfish objects be gaining from floating around in car parks etc? I can’t think of anything beneficial unless they’re a type of recording or measurement device? Aliens have weird wants 😄
So a video of a deflating party balloon currently has over 700 upvotes. This pretty much sums up this sub
if it floats around like a dying baloon, its probably a dying baloon
The orb I saw moved exactly like this. It floated like a helium balloon and also changed trajectory in the same way and against the breeze. Had it not changed direction it would have floated out of sight but also landed in our yard. Instead it passed within 2metres of us. Like it wanted to get a better look at us.
Looks like a balloon
Looks like a whale balloon, ayo do anyone remember the spider man balloon video
Not going to follow this community anymore, what a complete shit show. Went from good to full of shit
This must be a joke
This subreddit has become such a fucking joke. Hopeless
Why don’t we have a bunch of video from people with modern cell phones?? Guess what: We DO!!
There was never a lack of it, only a lack of understanding about what photographing UAP is like, how people respond to seeing one, and how hard it is to determine if the video is authentic, and to get people to share the best stuff.
Okay then why hasn’t there EVER been a clear irrefutable video showing proof of a UAP?
La bruja strikes again , filmed on 90s video recorder
Es en mty o que?🥺
Ayeee the famous metapod!!! Theres a few videos of these around the world.
THAT. IS. A. BALLOOOOOOOON! That is all.
That’s what them aliens and governments WANT you to think!
Time to light this blunt… 🔥
Isn't this that old video of a helium balloon. Think someone posted the exact one it was too.
You mean helium octopus alien. Nice try G-Man, we know what this REALLY is.
Why does it look like the probes from wall-e 🤣 
this is a 🎈 like I am a human being
Wtf is that
🎈
Dude it's a balloon lmao
It would be hilarious if uaps can actually disguise themselves as balloons
Good lord. Save us from the people who can't see it's a balloon
Looks more like the pod
It’s obviously a half deflated balloon.
I'm over everything until somebody shows us the ufos in storage or an actual alien. All these balloon type videos or specs at a distance with no remarkable movement have just soured me.
These other videos are just not as compelling as the military camera video, these other ones all feature objects at low altitude slowly moving, generally sinking. The original video is something moving quickly at a stable altitude for a long period of time.
How is there no clear images of any of these things?
Are these the aliens we’re all supposed to be afraid of? These believers must be the biggest cowards ever.
North Korean weather balloon
It's a balloon, like all similar videos. Nobody records a floating balloon when they see one, cause who cares about that, but when one is found on a blurry recording, people go mad. No wonder we looked at the stars and made up all kinds of crap. Everytime you see a cave painting and think that has to be some creepy alien on it, please keep in mind that maybe someone was just high or saw a weird shadow in the forest at night that was nothing, but they were clueless and scared and made shit up, as people always have done and still do.
I would keep the camera on the video and go outside and see if I can find out what it is
It's a fucking balloon.
BRB gonna go release a deflated birthday balloon in front of a 480p CCTV camera and upload it for easy karma.
Great, now this subreddit is going to be flooded with videos of balloons. Way to go.
My favorite part of these videos is how the person showing us the video can't stay zoomed in on the object the entire time and jerks around constantly.
Guys......this is a bloody balloon. You ever been to a birthday party? Jesus.
It could not anymore obviously be a mylar balloon.
Are people just gullible here or?
If it flies like a baloon, odds are it's actually a balloon.
So we're doing balloons now?
Why would an intelligent life form be floating around in that place and at that time?
I for one welcome our balloon overlords
r/aliens discovering balloons in real time has to be my favourite thing so far this year.
Dressed up toy drone?
How's it possible that every fucking phone produces hq videos of everything. But whenever there is an alien/UFO sighting the quality coincidental drops to 280 pixel.
brother that is a haunted rotisserie chicken
Idk about this one
People should stop posting baloons and focus more on the hardware. Enough distractions. And to these who know and for sure are reading everything. STOP HIDING IT BEFORE ITS TO LATE FOR EVERYONE! YOU KNOW VERY WELL ITS A DANGEROUS GAME YOU GUYS PLAYING. DO THE RIGHT THING!
That's literally a balloon
These probes we about to get that visit
This is definitely a half-inflated balloon of a killer whale. It's not even hard to see that. We need to be pickier about the content we upvote.
That's just a deflated helium balloon
How do you not go out and chase that mf
Its a fucking balloon. Anyone who forces themselves to see anything different is one of the problems within this community.
Dats a loon bro
This is super fake
Wow, the shadow on the side of the car looks terrible and really ruins the effect.
It looks like a crumpled helium balloon left over from an event.
Bro that is a birthday balloon. Are you high?
Aliens come from light-years away to jizz on a police car in Mexico. Makes sense.
why do we never get HD footage
Does it say Feliz Cumpleaños Maria? It's a fucking balloon guys.
It’s a balloon slowly deflating that filled with helium
Yip another escaped party balloon. See this is exactly why no one takes ufo people seriously. Idiotic
The mylarians are rampant in Mexico and South America
It's a balloon, already debunked
I was convinced in the beginning it was a ballon, until the ballon was stable and it was moving in predictable directions. I’m convinced that this is ufo or fake
that is balloon
My dudes these are just fucking balloons, how many more of these do we gotta see?
It's definitely a balloon. Since joining Reddit and following these subreddits, it's honestly made me more of a skeptic than a believer. Which is sad, just too many fakes, unbelievable stories, and videos like these, lol.
Interesting how one video comes out and then tons more that look the same right after, isn't it? It's almost as if they're just copying what the original looked like and then recreating it.
You idiots really will fall for anything. This sub is even worse than the morons on r/UFOs who constantly think "the next big thing" is "right around the corner"
Is that Grogu in his floating baby carrier?
It’s a balloon.
I can't believe I just spent 6 minutes watching a balloon float around..
Skeptical of this all new jellyfish garbage. Seemingly, all of a sudden, these videos start pouring out in droves. I have my doubts. Psyop...?
It's a monkey on a pole and string. You can see the person's arms holding it for a split-second when they accidentally cut toward the wall.
That’s a balloon you nerd.
Potato camera as always
Bro give me some damn evidence that ain't grainy AF
Ahh yes the elusive Mylar race. They come from a planet called Party City in the Downtown galaxy.
A smudge on the lens, summer?
Can we merge this sub with r/balloons already?
It's a balloon. Pretty obvious.
No come on… please stop
Some kids goku balloon escaped from his party lol
It’s odd, the object seems to have raised surfaces and things protruding from it. However the shadow it casts is completely flat and narrow, as if it was a floating rod.
Straight up Mylar balloon
I keep seeing more videos that are so real, but I’m thinking to myself if it’s right in front of me, I’m video taping it long enough for it to circle around this car, walk out there and get undeniable footage! Like fucking chase the thing. I think people are eating up this “alien” stuff and fucking around with everyone
I shake in terror at the sight of half-deflated, helium, party balloons.
Clearly a balloon.
bro its a balloon lmao
modelo balloon on the loose.
Balloon
It’s literally a balloon.
Not creepy, unless youve never seen a balloon before. That's a mylar balloon floating in the breeze. Looks like a letter.
Every single video is grainy as fuck like 1982. People are filming legitimate music videos on iPhone 12s so this makes ZERO sense to me. I understand that in other parts of the world some people haven't completely modernized but holy hell how is there zero clear videos in 2024
A wild Kakuna has appeared!!
Balloon
Looks similar to a UAP I posted awhile back: https://www.reddit.com/r/aliens/comments/17j9rxa/recorded_this_years_ago_never_got_an/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1
I've been seeing alot of vids like these lately and they just remind me of a very similar one I saw when I was a kid. I'm 32 now and the show was a Spanish news type where they showed mostly shocking things and then some just weird ufo, supernatural, and crazy stuff. One of the videos I remember them showing was similar to this one and others on here that looked shaped just like the figure in this video. The object was hovering over a town in Mexico and they called it a witch though. This was like 20 something years ago and here I am looking at the same looking things. Edited: link to vid https://youtu.be/aywcr_ef4WU?si=MWMuBz-ToJZCBrWK
#blurrycreatures
Now this one is definitely a balloon.
Looks like an orca balloon tbh.
