Irish man recalls ‘strange’ UFO experience as he begs for explanation – Irish Mirror

An Irish man has recalled a “strange” UFO experience that happened outside his home in Carlow last night.

He says it’s one of the “strangest experiences he’s had, hands down” and took to the internet to beg for answers.

Explaining his experience on Reddit Ireland, he said he heard what sounded like a low-flying helicopter and went outside to check.

It then flew directly over him, but strangely “appeared invisible” with no lights, shape or outline.

He said: “I’m in Carlow here and could hear something which sounded like one of those Coast Guard Helicopters approaching from the distance (they commonly drill here and unfortunately have to search for people from time to time). Thinking just that, I came out of the garage to have a look like any man-child would especially since it sounded so low.

“Bear in mind it’s not the darkest of nights as it’s a full moon and no clouds. Whatever it was, still sounding like a low flying helicopter came directly right over me in a linear fashion heading north. The strange part? I can’t identify something that appears invisible.

“There were no lights, whatsoever. I don’t eat much carrots lol but seriously I couldn’t even see the vague shape or outline of anything. It’s one of the strangest experiences I’ve had hands down, so much so I felt compelled to share on here. I hope people don’t think I’m bulls**tting.”

He went on to beg for an explanation.

“Has anybody an explanation? Did anybody else hear let alone see that in the Carlow area? It came from Tinryland direction headed towards Palatine,” he wrote.

Dozens of people have since commented, with some saying they experienced the same thing.

“Someone else (about 15km outside carlow Town) told me same thing happened about 10 days ago, at around 2am or so,” they wrote to which the poster replied: “Interesting.”

Another person claimed: “Same thing happened to me like 10 years ago. Only difference was the power went out for a few minutes afterwards aswell.”

Others tried to give explanations, suggesting it could have been something like a drone, or possibly an army training exercise. While a few claimed it could be aliens.

“I’m not saying aliens… but it was aliens!” one person wrote.

Another said: “UFOs are generally reported as being silent or making a low level hum or buzzing like a swarm of bees.”

However others argued: “Its a million things before its aliens….”
