As if being suspended thousands of feet in the air wasn't scary enough, the pilot of an unnamed passenger airline got the fright of his life this past July, The Province reports, when a large unidentified flying object nearly collided with the jet he was piloting. Though air traffic controllers never alerted the man to any other aircraft flying within the vicinity of his plane, he says that a silver "cigar/rugby-ball shaped" object quickly came towards the plane, forcing him to duck down and brace for impact. Thankfully, the 'UFO' passed over top of the aircraft, avoiding a collision by only a few feet.
The incident occured some 20 miles away from London's Heathrow Airport, on July 13th, and aviation authorities have been unable to determine the identity of the possible alien spacecraft. Data recordings and even military radar operators were also unable to provide any clues as to what exactly the pilot saw in the sky. According to the official report, it is "not possible to trace the object or determine the likely cause of the sighting."
Makes ya wonder, doesn't it?!
