Seeking Lost Footage of Silver, Potato-Shaped UFO Hovering Over Water
I’m on the hunt for a VHS tape I watched with my dad back in the mid to late ’90s. This tape featured several UFO encounters, including footage of a cylindrical object hovering over a body of water. I believe the recording dates back to the ’80s or ’90s.
To me, it was quite convincing. I remember feeling uneasy while watching it, as it seemed very authentic—almost ominous. While my memory is a bit fuzzy, the object resembled the photo I’m sharing, though it might have been larger. It appeared silver or gray, and while I’m not sure if it was spinning, it certainly looked like it was just hovering.
I wonder if this footage was ever debunked? I’ve searched online extensively, but I can’t find anything. It seemed fairly well-known since it appeared in various UFO documentaries from the ’90s. Does anyone else recall this footage?
I think I might know the footage you’re describing! It sounds similar to some well-known UFO videos from that era. The silver, potato-shaped object hovering over water reminds me of footage often featured in UFO documentaries, especially those focusing on credible sightings.
One possibility is the “Tic Tac” UFO footage or other similar encounters, but those are more modern. In the 90s, shows like “Unsolved Mysteries” and various UFO specials were known to feature various clips. It’s possible the video you saw circulated in those programs or was part of a VHS compilation.
Have you checked forums or groups dedicated to UFO sightings? Sometimes those communities can be incredibly resourceful and might even help jog someone else’s memory. There’s also a chance that if it was popular, it might pop up on YouTube or other video platforms. Good luck with your search—I hope you find that footage!
