Cigar-shaped UFOs

Cigar UFOs are among the most commonly reported sightings, with many videos circulating online.

This particular video, taken in Manchester, England, in 2016, shows a metallic craft rapidly moving at a high altitude.

Throughout the clip, bright lights flicker on the object's surface, but it's unclear
whether these are reflections of the sun or lights emitted from the craft itself.

As the video progresses, the witness zooms in for a detailed view before the UFO gradually disappears into the blue sky.

Sightings of cigar-shaped objects have a long history.
