Youghal, County Cork (Ireland)

Sighted on Wednesday 14. February 2018
Reported on
Shape: Cigar | Duration: 00:10:01
Source:

It was a cigar-shaped object. what attracted me to it was the fact that my immediate surroundings became illuminated on a very (totally) dark night. the illumination was a constant on/off every 1 to 1 and a half seconds with the ground lit up, which continued for three or four minutes or perhaps 5 minutes. then out of fear for my life i ran for my house. and returned 5 minutes later with a witness but it had moved very far south by this time and the witness saw nothing - it had moved out of sight as the light sequence continued. there was no moon or any other light whatsoever in the vicinity as i live on a coastal sea shore property - an isolated sea shore property.
