TLDNR- Saw this when I was 14 years old with a friend up close in broad daylight. Has anyone else seen similar?
When I was a boy and my early teens and roughly 2004 my friend and I were traveling in his mother’s car. We were leaving a summer bowling league for children and I had been invited stay the night at his house with him. Our bowling league was in a place called Greeley Colorado and we were traveling towards his family’s Farm in Kersey Colorado. This is all pretty rural back in the day and most of the ride was through corn fields.
I was in the rear passenger seat of his mom’s car when I noticed out the window a strange, large gunmetal gray or black metallic object in the sky fairly low above us. The furthest away it could have been was about 200 ft. The Craft was heading approximately in the same direction as us totally silently as it traveled from our Southeast to our Northwest. It’s maintained Pace with our vehicle and sort of glided over us strafing to move rather than physically turning like a normal airplane might.
It had bright fuchsia and purple lights on its underside and rear that glowed even during the day by my recollection. It seemed to have a definitive front and back and a shape that my young mind could only equate to that of an old boxy car like a Lincoln Continental but with no windows or doors or Wheels etc. My friend and I always referred to it as the “flying car”, but we both knew it was not a car. Seeing it this close during broad daylight it is absolutely clear that it was not any kind of blimp, helicopter, airplane, drone, or anything else like that. It was quite specifically something not of normal reality as we knew it at the time.
What was strange about this to me was the way we reacted. We were both perplexed and started laughing like crazy at the absurdity of the whole event. In our minds, there was no way you f o could be right above us in broad daylight, this doesn’t happen! Of course we wanted his mom to stop and pull over and look, but she thought we were messing with her and did not believe it all. She refused to even look up or slow down to look at her window. Meanwhile a UFO was literally right above her vehicle.
I had chalked up much of this to childhood flight of imagination and tried to put it out of my mind for years. When we did try to talk to anybody about it they would just laugh at us think we were pulling a prank or a joke. Finally, 20 years later almost I decided to contact my old friend and it turns out that no it wasn’t in my imagination. He remembers it and thinks about it too.
It’s taking me a long time to actually put pen to paper and draw this. Please forgive me for not being a pro artist, I did my best and to the best of my recollection this is accurate. This was no twinkling light in the night time sky that could be explained away by a satellite rotating or a piece of space junk catching a ray of sunlight. This was real and right there in front of me
Has anyone ever seen such a crap before? I have never been able to find anyone who has seen something matching this description.
