A man who recorded the 'best ever UFO footage' has explained why he doesn't think what he saw was fake.

There are plenty of people who are convinced they've seen a UFO hurtling through the sky, and some even manage to get video evidence of their sightings.

Some of the claims people make aren't hard to debunk, others take a lot more explaining.

One of the clearest pieces of footage of a sighting was taken by someone who was up in that very sky themselves and became convinced they'd had a close encounter of the third kind.

The footage was dubbed 'one of the greatest UAP (UFO) evidences of all time' by ufologist Jaime Maussan, who has been caught with fake aliens in the past.

However, truth is in the eye of the beholder so you might as well give it a look and learn why the person who filmed it thinks it's genuine.

Where did the footage come from?

The video was taken by pilot Jorge A. Arteaga, who was flying in the skies above Antioquia, Colombia, when he spotted something peculiar moving through the sky.

Within just a few seconds, a strange square-like object can be seen flying past Arteaga's plane and goes whizzing off in another direction.

The bloke claimed that he and his co-pilot had seen the object hovering in the air between the cities of Medellín and Santa Fe before it suddenly gained speed and moved towards them.

Arteaga claimed that the pair had wanted to keep following this strange sight before it suddenly started heading right for them.

However, Arteaga was able to get some footage on his phone which he's claimed as proof that he had a bona fide daylight encounter with a UFO.

Why is Arteaga sure it's a UFO?

This is the big question that anyone is going to ask when someone says they've caught a UFO on camera.

There are all sorts of objects in the sky which might just be a balloon or a scrap of something else floating about in the wind.

However, the pilot said that since his plane was at 12,500 feet there's no chance it could just have been a balloon.

Arteaga claimed it would be too cold and turbulent at that height for something like a balloon to survive in the skies, so he reckons it must have been a UFO.

On top of that, the pilot claimed the thing he saw was 'something totally unknown without means of propulsion' and he thought it moved in an 'intelligent' manner.

You may believe what you like, but the man who saw and filmed it is pretty convinced he laid eyes on a UFO that day.
