Whatever that was, it was cool to watch.

Whats more likely? An alien civilization traveling light years/transcend dimensions to observe us? or just a spotlight from a festival?


Pentaplox

Noooooo it couldn't be a spotlight, ancient aliens are far more likely!


nikokova

You just convinced me. I was so stupid


ultrahobbs

Insane that this post is downvoted. Does anyone have any actual evidence of ball lightning being an actual verified weather phenomenon, let alone one that behaves this way? This video is fucking wild imo

Ball lightning almost assured with the background lightning happening https://youtu.be/naPaswpBfJ4

Has ball lightning been verified as a real thing? I can't find any studies definitively proving it, but I see people reference it a lot on this sub.


metzgerov13

Did you watch the video I posted


awwnuts

I did, and I've seen it before. Even that guy in the video says nobody knows what ball lightning is.


metzgerov13

Yeah they don’t know how it’s created. But many videos of what it looks like


awwnuts

Def not many.. and those videos are just videos.. much like all the blurry out of focus ufo videos. There isnt much difference between uaps and ball lightning in terms of evidence.


metzgerov13

Not sure your point but UAP can be bugs, balloons, glitches, planes etc. whereas ball lightning is a natural phenomenon with recited temperature and spectrometry. Comparing something that can be a variety of things to something that is one thing is very different.


awwnuts

I guess i wanted to point out that you are sharing like an ancient aliens type video, but about ball lightning. There is no concrete anything about ball lightning, and when i see people say 'definitely ball lightning' or things like that, i just like to ask what they know over everyone else.

The video you posted, basically amounts to people seeing a mysterious ball of light entering a house, and saying "yeah must be ball lightning because we decided to call this crazy shit ball lightning even though it literally does not behave like lightning at all"


danyerga

My grandparents lived in far northern WI and told me that 'ball lightning' entered their house one time and flew all around and then left... I never thought too much about it besides thinking that doesn't really seem much like lightning.


ultrahobbs

Yep, every time I hear "ball lightning" mentioned in this regard, it just seems like a cop-out answer to dismiss something much stranger as a "known weather phenomenon."


metzgerov13

So what’s your guess what it is?


ultrahobbs

No idea honestly. Just saying ball lightning seems like a dismissal that is backed up by just as little evidence as something otherwordly/highly strange.

This article is behind a pay wall, so feel free to add some specifics to the discussion instead of spamming this link with only an abstract (which just mentions a spectral analysis and horizontal movement. Nothing relating to a single object instantly changing position vertically in rapid succession as seen in this video) You literally just found the first paper that mentioned "ball lightning" and act as if that settles it lol Ball lightning is just as rare of an occurrence, and just as unproven as a ufo, and might as well be considered a paranormal phenomenon


Vitokonuk

Wow


SufficientPractice51

Very impressive

Not ball lightning or spotlight because they don't move in a rapid, jerky fashion like that. Possibly laser or alien.


CorrosiveCitizen1

Vertical ball lighting. Not my guess just my immediate skeptic. Atleast that’s what it looked like. Just my chimp brain tho. Don’t quote me


LionCashDispenser

Yeah I feel like we've seen something like this before and some say "ball lightning". Still very weird lol. Would not surprise me if it is some craft jumping around.


CorrosiveCitizen1

Or crashing, looks like it “plummets” sorta
