A man captured footage of a UFO flying over a small US town which made his wife “cry”.
Taking to Reddit, the shocked bloke shared the video recorded on Friday (September 6) between 10.10 and 10.15pm. The clip shows what appears to be a blinking craft zipping over the tiny town of Choteau, Montana, which has a population of just over 1,700 people.
It comes as Montana was highlighted as a hotspot for extraterrestrial sightings, with visitors often flagging reportings of UFOs.

“On Friday night my wife and I were sitting on the deck out back looking at the stars – we do this every night,” wrote the man on Reddit, who goes by the handle ‘PoneThePoon’.

The post added: “Just after 10pm my wife said “is that a shooting star??”, which I found odd, because if it was I wouldn’t have time to look at it. The tree near me was blocking the direction she was staring so I got up and looked, and my jaw dropped.”
“I said ‘Holy s**t. Holy s**t!!’ and we both jumped off of the deck and got into the yard for a better view.”
The post included three separate bits of footage showing a light in the sky that looks like it’s rotating wildly. According to the man, the sight left his spouse in tears as it lingered over the town for a few minutes before flying away, the Mail reports.

“The craft seemed huge, miles away,” he said, mentioning how it had several blinking and spinning lights while a rotating orange-red light was attached to the bottom.
“You can only see the orange/red light in the video,” he said. “[My wife and I] observed it for 2-3 minutes as it continued flying away, and then it was just gone. No noise, it was just gone.”
On Reddit people rushed to support the man’s claims, with one person writing: “This could have been the best UFO video ever if the sky was just a little bit lighter. Frustrating, but definitely interesting.”
Another person said: “Kudos. Now don’t let them disappear into the abyss. Good footage has a way of inexplicably going missing.”
