    Unironically, yes.

    I’ve told this story other times, but here it goes.

    It was around the start of the pandemic. I was living with my gf in the last floor of an apartment building. We had a little terrace like area, where we could go out and see the sky etc.

    It was dark, but not too late. We were getting ready to go to bed, and I as always was having my goodnight cigarette, alone outside.

    Eventually, I saw to the north, pretty far away, a thing in the sky. At first, what popped into my head, was balloons. Black, shiny, balloons. A bunch of them, tied up together, floating in the sky.

    I kept looking at it, cause even if it was just balloons it was kinda weird. Like a bunch of black balloons randomly floating in the sky at midnight?

    It came closer and closer, very slowly. And it still looked like balloons. Like black spheres, floating around each other, slightly shifting with the wind.

    It wasn’t until they were pretty close that I started to get a different idea.

    The shapes didn’t really look like spheres anymore. They looked more like “holes” in the clouds. Like infinitely black holes. Still writhing and shifting against each other. But not “3D” anymore.

    Then suddenly, the shapes all coalesced into one sphere. Rather circular, but clearly just one shape. When that happened, I ran to call my girlfriend.

    When we came back seconds later, we both saw the bigger sphere just “spit out” a smaller sphere. Then smaller sphere started to orbit around the bigger one.

    The shape kept coming closer and closer. We were both at awe and didn’t speak a single word.

    When it was basically on top of us, maybe 100m above us, it stopped.

    It stayed still for a second, then it got REALLY WEIRD. The bigger sphere took the shape of a person. Arms, legs, shoulders, head. Then the smaller did the same, but a smaller person.

    I was smiling from ear to ear, incredulous this was actually happening.

    The bigger person-shaped-thing seemed to look right at me. And it waved. I waved back. It seemed satisfied. It joined hands with the smaller person-shaped-thing and started to dance in a circle, almost jumping in “joy”.

    That was the most amazing thing I ever saw. And it’s burned into my brain forever.

    When I came to it, and looked back at my gf, she was paralysed in fear, tears pouring from her eyes, moth agape. I hugged her and asked what was wrong. She couldn’t answer.

    I looked back at the shapes, and the bigger one looked disappointed. Like shoulders hunched, head down.

    It slowly turned back into a ball, and so did the smaller shape. The smaller shape went back into the bigger one, and they slowly started to disappear, getting smaller and smaller. Like they were going up. But since the shapes looked like holes, it was hard to understand what was “further”.

    I kept looking at that “hole” for maybe 30min, until it disappeared completely.

    Afterwards I asked my girlfriend why she was so afraid. She said she didn’t realise she was, she didn’t even feel herself cry. But thinking about it then, she felt they were going to take me away. I kinda felt the same, but I wasn’t afraid of that.

    We never saw them again. But I do hope, every time I go out at night and the sky looks similar, that they will come back…

        It was by far the weirdest most amazing thing that ever happened to me. And I never found anyone with a similar story, online or otherwise. So yeah…

        I wouldn’t believe it if my girlfriend didn’t see the exact same thing tbh.

            I mean they didn’t “feel” fucked up, or evil, or anything like that. They felt… normal? Like they got excited I waved back. Actual joy you know.

            I do believe that UFOs are likely something non-physical, and what I saw was similar to what people used to call “angels” or “demons”.

            But they seemed pretty chill, idk.

              You should check out Jacques Vallee’s works on UFOs and encounters, he works from a hypothesis that whatever they are what ancient man was calling angels and demons, it’s interesting stuff.
