This video was caught using a Long Beach CA Police Department Helicopter with a FLIR (forward looking infra red) camera. WATCH THE FULL VIDEO UNTIL THE UFO SPEEDS OFF AT THE END. That is the most dramatic part.

So if it was coming toward the camera, it just appeared to be dropping things straight down. Okay, so how do you explain the sudden 90 degree hard turn to its left? Trick photography, or a really fast police helicopter?

I watched the UFO video . . . then spent an hour watching Bikini News.

"Then, when the UFO speeds away, that shoots down the theory of a falling item."

The object never "speeds away". It is constantly moving in that lateral (left to right) direction. If you watch carefully during the first half, you can see an occasional cloud line go by. It's only when it gets down toward the skyline you can see the actual lateral movement as the object appears to be tumbling toward earth at a high rate of speed from left to right.

Camera shift. With nothing but a black back ground to judge things by, any movement in the camera could make it look like the object itself is shifting or moving at unusual rates of speed.

Don’t know is worth a ping, or not.

[Las Vegas Dave]

Yes worth a ping!!

(Watch the thing speed off near the end, at about 1:10 minutes left on the video.)

It would be nice if someone could re-filter the video so we could determine the actual shape of the object.

That UFO had UFO babies coming out of it.
