Post your Black Triangle Sightings Here...

[pixelsmith]

after all of these encounters did it occur to you that you should carry a camera in your car or purse? i keep one handy at all times. you should stop and get a disposable one and throw it in your car.

i actually had my dad buy me a videocamera for christmas. my boyfriend and i have gone on numerous nighttime rides for the sole purpose of catching something on film. i have one sighting on film, but it's of a bright white light and isn't very compelling. my boyfriend and i have staked out areas near a power plant, where we have had two sightings. i find that when i bring my camera, i never see anything. i don't know what that means, we just never see them when we're "hunting".

those events occurred before i had my camera, so they could have been captured if i had it because one of those encounters was on a ride for the purpose of seeing a UFO.

i can only keep trying and hope that someday i can get some relevant evidence on film, but i can see why there aren't that many great UFO videos out there.

dont feel bad. my only shots of a UFO suck big time and i am a photographer.

Sometimes, a pad of paper and pencil can be equally, if not more powerful, then film.

This was taken on September 10th 2005 at about 9:30pmon my way home from a family wedding (I live in the UK) . My whole family saw this, I knew it wasn't an aircraft but had to be something else and I knew it had to be a black triangle by looking at it's shape, it was moving really slowly across the sky.

After a while it started to turn left and disappear in the distance

COOL!

Thanks for the share. Very nice photo.

What was its distance from you, would you guess? Also, how big was it?

Thx, t

It was rather close actually I would say about at least 2 football fields away from me but it was really visible in the sky, at least 100m in length.

I personally think it was either something extraterrestrial or miltary because usually in the UK, when your driving down the high way especially there are not street lights all you see is the country side, darkness and stars. Usually there appear to be some military bases around there...I was coming back on the M6 motorway where all you see is blackness really.

At the end of the day, it was something unidentifiable but I think it was either military or extraterrestrial.

Hi Tom, and everyone else, on 7/8/87 (it would be a palindrome!) I was at a party in a quarry in south Wales (UK) in a place called Trefil. I needed a pee so I walked away to a quiet spot. Whilst peeing, I looked up and saw a black triangle next to a black circle in the sky..very near..roughly 50 - 100 yds away and 50-100yds up...and totally silent. Their flashing lights described their shape (I have sketches made the following day) and to all intents and purposes the blackness of their hulls was as the blackness of the night sky..difficult to actually make out an outline..giving the impression that this was their disguise. As I gawped, the things that went through my mind were...'they dont seem 'manned' - more like very hi-tech devices or keys of some kind. I say 'keys' because of the way they moved - like probing the area they were occupying and unlocking...working..collecting data or fixing something. I also thaught they were of earth origin..don't know why..collecting energy from the party people and/or from the earth itself (quarry=damage to earth surface=releasing energy?).
Anyway, that month I had another 2 experiences and nothing ever since.

A friend (who knew of my experience) then showed me a book by a Captain Bruce Cathie - I think it was called 'Harmonic 33' (or maybe 28 which - to my amazement - showed a sketch so similar to mine that I was speechless.
There was one critical difference though.. His two sketches were a depiction of the one craft - plan and elevation!

So, a triangle (well cone) ufo can look circular and vice versa..the circle being the plan view of the triangle. Obvious really innit!

Anyway, there you go. My story. And thanks Bruce for convincing me I hadn't flipped!

An excellent post. Thank you Star Geezer. Fascinating experience.

1) Don't feel bad about 7-8-87. I've got you beat. My wife and I married on 6-9-96. I KID YOU NOT!

2) I'm hoping the black triangle was not interested in your having a pee, lol Don't mean to make light, but I had to

3) I'd be extremely interested in seeing your sketch(s), and/or hearing more about your other 2 experiences. Do you have the ability to copy those sketches into digital form, and then post them here on TheParacast? If you need help with that, send me a private post, and we can talk shop. Even without us, I think it would be a good idea to digitize that data, so as to preserve it as we head on into the future.

4) All the tell-tale signs are there: black to opaque in color, silent, large, the description of lights in this posters words "flashing lights described their shape", and even the observation of different shapes. Some people describe it as morphing, and the Illinois sighting brought forth the idea that its object, anyway, might appear a different shape dependent upon what angle you were looking at, similar to "so a triangle can look circular, vice versa"...

Just more of the same for me. Either people like this poster are lying, or they are not. Does he sound like he's lying? I don't think so. His observations were very distinct, very specific, and apparently impactful enough for him to remember the date, make sketches, and document his experience. This is more of the same for me. It's hard for me to refute that black triangles, et al., are real. For me, these are consistent descriptions that I've read and heard over and over and over again.

It's also interesting to consider this posters analysis. His description that perhaps, what he experienced was unmanned, collecting data, fixing something. I like that. It reminds me of David's description of how one might react to seeing a large UFO in the sky...Seeing something that doesn't fit, that doesn't match with anything in your mind that you've ever seen before. The unmanned explanation makes perfect sense to me. We don't know that it was unmanned. But, from that description, we can certainly understand that this gentleman had never seen anything like it before. Perhaps his analysis of "unmanned" could also be trying to describe something that is not of man? Poster, I'm not trying to put words in your mouth. I'm just further reflecting on how you've described your experience. I think it's an honest account, and I appreciate the share.

Please feel free to email me direct.

Sincerely, Tom

Hello Tom and fellow Paracasters.
Forum newbie here so I hope I've pressed all the right buttons and that you're reading this.

Tom, I just wanted to tell you my Black Triangle story. It's nothing spectacular in terms of it happening to me but it is, I think, an interesting account.
I attended my brother's wedding back in June 1996. The reception was held at the home of the bride's grandfather who had a bungalow in the Cheshire (UK) countryside. The bungalow had a wide, sloping garden that ended in an open meadow and trees. After a few hours and a few drinks, the grandfather 'loosened up' and, after hearing of my interest in UFOs, was reluctantly persuaded to tell me of his strange encounter.
One night in 1993, he had woken up a little after midnight and was trotting over to the loo when he noticed a large black triangle hovering silently and just a few feet above the meadow at the end of the garden. Three white lights illuminated each corner of the thing whilst the thing itself was utterly silent. The grandfather woke his wife who came to the window and confirmed what he was looking at. After a minute or so (aware that it was being looked at perhaps??) the triangle tilted at a 45 degree angle and shot straight up into the starry sky.
The old chap was totally convincing and was slightly embarrassed by the whole event. He had no reason to lie. It felt very odd to be standing in the exact location and I wondered whether I would have run out and confronted the thing had I seen it myself.
Later on, I discovered that Cheshire, indeed most of the North West of England, was quite a black triangle hotspot at the time.
People living there assumed it was just the Americans "buggering about".
You Americans!
