Hello everyone what is up!
Im your host Ayman Hasan and welcome back to another video here at Most Amazing Top
10.
We dont know everything.
Thats just the hard truth people we dont cant explain everything.
Thanks for coming to my ted talk thats the end of the video.
No but for real, so many weird things take place on our planet and beyond that we simply
have no idea about.
Thats half scary but also half cool that means we have a long way to go as a species.
Starting us off with number 10 is the Swirl.
I actually thought this one was completely fake because honestly i thought things like
that only happened in sci fi movies and not real life but i was pleasantly mistaken.
On the 22nd of May in 2010 photographers all around Western Canada started sending in their
photos of the sky.
That day there seemed to be a huge swirling light in the sky and people were shook.
No one had any explanations for it but a similar pattern had been in Norway but that one was
caused by a Russian missile launch.
So they speculated maybe that was it.
The nearest one was the Vandenberg Air Force Base but they were very quick to deny any
missile launch on their part.
Some people claimed they also heard a loud bang after the pattern disappeared.
To me it looks like a time warp or portal opening hopefully from aliens.
Either way im here for it and if they need volunteers im also here for it.
Coming in at number 9 is the Blood Sky.
Now i dont know what the signal of an apocalypse would look like but the sky going red is pretty
up there in my guesses.
Thats exactly what residents of El Chalchuapa in El Salvador saw back in 2016.
Crimson light filled the sky for just a minute before fading away and leaving the sky a shade
of pink.
Funnily enough a lot of people in the evangelical Christian population did actually believe
it was the sign of an imminent apocalypse.
Some have guessed the light was from the yearly meteor showers that happen there but that
cant be true since the blood red sky has never been seen before and the showers have.
Others say it could be the light could be a reflection off the clouds of fires made
by sugarcane farmers.
Either way the sky was red.
Lets leave it at that.
At number 8 we have The Trail.
I really dont know what to make of this one so maybe you guys can help me out.
Back in 2017 Phoenix residents saw an amalgamation of lights hovering in the sky.
The lights were in various shapes and forms, they started off in a V shape and then it
turned into more of a hook or candy cane shape.
The weirdest part was the lights were moving upwards, they kept going high and higher and
they definitely werent a type of aircraft.
Residents described the lights movement as fluid, some of them became super bright then
dimmed to nothing and then came back brighter than ever.
It was just a hodge podge of lights that no one has been able to explain.
So people need to stop telling me that aliens arent real.
Thanks.
Filling our number 7 slot is Steve.
Who is steve?
What is steve?
Why is steve?
Let me tell you.
A strip of light can be seen from the banks of Hudson Bay to British Columbia and scientists
have no idea what this strip of light is.
First they thought could it just be a lost aurora borealis (bore-ee-alis)?
A comets tail?
Maybe even a planes contrail?
But it turned out to be none of those things so they decided to call the strip Steve.
Now photos of Steve are stunning, they show him as a neon wisp of light but intreality
he looks like a wisp of white light so faint that people did originally think it was a
planes contrail.
Thanks to photographers and their slow shutter speeds we can see its true pink purple and
green colours and that made it clear to scientists it was self illuminated and not lit from below
like a normal contrail.
Many people thought it was a proton aurora but its not that either.
And i know youre wondering about the name.
Steve was inspired by the movie Over the Hedge which was actually really good and cute.
These animals see a giant row of shrubs and one says i would be a lot less afraid of it
if i just knew what it was called.
Then a squirrel goes lets just call it steve.
Its a pretty name.
And voila from there we have Steve the strip of light.
Now at number 6 are the Loops.
The video of this really freaked me out because its so clear that its something that we havent
caused.
Its the strangest yet coolest video.
In November of last year residents of Gloucestershire witnessed lights moving and circling in the
sky.
From the video you can see the light so clearly making loop after loop and then disappearing.
It comes back in flashes or altogether and it leaves behind red marks.
The light then splits into two beams of light and then both beams start moving perfectly
parallel.
At one point one beam is flashing while the other isnt.
Its just so strange but so mesmerizing to watch i was literally sat there for 10 mins
like :O.
And of course no one knows anything about the lights, what they are, why they were there
and what their source was.
Which is just brilliant.
But funnily enough thats not the only weird thing thats happened in Gloucestershire, there
was also once a giant orange glow or haze in the sky that people also had no explanation
for.
Coming in at number 5 is the Green Light.
And this one literally happened in December just now so its quite the fresh news story.
In Western Australia locals were stunned when during a super intense thunderstorm they saw
a strange green light appearing accompanied by an unexplainable sound.
Even experts were like what the hell is that.
Theyd never seen anything like it before.
The Bureau of Meteorology said the light definitely wasnt part of the storm and their best guess
is that it was a reflection of something on the ground.
Locals in other areas said they also saw the green light but with no rain or thunder.
They just saw the light flashing for a good hour.
Flashing green light in the sky?
I dont think that can ever be good.
Id like out of this episode of black mirror right now please.
At number 4 is the Fireball.
This one happened right here in Toronto.
A lot of these have actually taken place in Canada to be fair im kinda worried now.
But anyway 6 months ago people in teh city saw a fireball shaped light in the sky above
Lake Ontario.
Reports started coming in at around 11pm and the fireball stayed where it was for 2 hours.
It disappeared for 10 seconds in that time and then came back with hanging smoke around
it.
People thought it was a meteor but it wasnt moving it was just hovering.
In footage and pictures it almost looks like the sun except at night.
Police have said it could be because of flares used to find a missing boat earlier in the
day or the hercules plane that was called in to help the search.
I feel like thats a totally viable explanation but everyone in toronto was going ape shit
like omg a fireball in the sky omg the sun is out at night what is happening.
Ya feel me?
Filling our number 3 slot is The Key Question Mark.
And my weirdness will make sense to you guys very quickly dont worry.
The setting is San Francisco December 2018.
Residents were on their way home from work or their 6pm Yoga class when they saw a strange
light in the sky.
It was a lot brighter than a normal cloud especially in the evening.
Witnesses thought it was just a weird formation, they saw a light and then the light started
to form a shape.
Some people thought it looked like a key others thought it was a question mark.
A lot of people believed it was a UFO sign but at this point anything weird can happen
in the sky and people will think its aliens trying to contact us.
Scientists have speculated it was a Bolide (bow-lide) Meteor with compressed air around
it but no one knows for sure.
Now at number 2 are Blue Jets.
This is the coolest one on the list it looks like something out of Avatar.
No actually they look like lightning going upwards, like if imagine the shape of leafless
trees in the winter except theyre blue.
Now these are scientifically called upper atmospheric lightning and that is basically
a family of short lived electrical breakdowns that take place above the altitudes of regular
lightning.
Scientists think theyre induced by forms of luminous plasma but the blue jets are still
a mystery.
The first issue is that theyre blue and blue atmospheric phenomena are really hard to study
from below because the atmosphere is really good at scattering blue light.
If thats not bad enough blue lights are just super narrow and rare in general.
Scientists think perhaps they form when a thunderstorm gets super tall and pierce into
the thinner layers of the atmosphere above but they dont know for sure.
Regardless of how they form they are insanely cool to look at.
imagine you were looking at it from space how cool would they be coming out of the earth
like that.
And finally at number 1 are the Phoenix Lights.
This case was massive back in the day.
In 1997 thousands of people saw what they thought were UFOs in the sky.
In the skies of Arizona, Nevada and Sonora between 730 and 1030pm, 2 events took place.
The first was a triangular formation of lights passing over the state and this one is the
shadiest.
There only a handful of images of the first event, only one person had a detailed video
of it and what appears to be a spacecraft but the video had mysteriously been lost.
The second event is the one everyone has pictures of.
In the second incident a series of lights spaced out at regular intervals would appear,
stay illuminated for a while and then disappear.
The most popular recording of this is an arc of lights appearing one by one and then going
out one by one.
Ufologists believe they were some type of running light along the edge of a large spacecraft.
Many people said they saw a craft hovering quite low and that it looked like canisters
of swimming lights with an underbelly that looked like water.
Alien technology is so much better than ours its actually quite sad im not gonna lie.
The first event has no explanations but the second sort of does.
Well if you believe it.
The US Air Force said the second event was because of slow falling long burning illumination
flares dropped by a flight of 4 aircrafts.
And that is probably the reason the second event occurred but i dont know they could
have easily just lied about it to keep the publics UFO speculations at bay because they
dont want us to know about these things so.
And that does it for this video guys!
I hope this made you question everything you see in the sky from now on because thats exactly
what it made me do.
Have you guys ever seen something weird in the sky?
Let me know in the comments.
Everytime i think im seeing something weird its almost always plane contrails so im not
one to talk.
So im gonna stop.
Im your host Ayman Hasan and ill see you next time.
Byee.
