Like I said above, this looks like a balloon to me, but it has UFO reddit and twitter going crazy over it. Maybe someone here can identify the exact balloon again like with the graduation balloon

I'm surprised I haven't seen this video on here yet but then again this was just shared recently on Twitter. Do not know original source but it's getting a lot of attention and for good reason. In the 20 sec clip you can see this thing pass by very very close to the pilot. Its shiny metallic with a oval/triangular shape. Also another thing that I noticed is the pilot seems to already be noticing and trying to capture Another UAP. In the very beginning of the video you can see a small black dot also moving. As the camera tries to auto focus he looses it but keeps filming..that's when the main UAP flys by the pilot. So yea 2 UAP I believe what do you guys think?

I haven't see anyone else do this so:
The first appearance I could find of this video is from someone named "OGCRYPTO", he posted it tagging Corbell (who's ignored the video and all the tagging):

Then it was picked up my J. Alberto (a Spanish speaking ufo blogger):

who also tagged Corbell initially but then started tagging all the other ufo believers and even the Guardian paper looking for traction.
After tagging Mick and another talented researcher, we get the "flying past a Mylar balloon" reply:

He then starts tagging Ryan Graves and pretty much anyone he thinks will help it go viral.
Finally, Alberto claims to be speaking to the pilot of the aircraft (originally identified as a Beechcraft), a "top model" Latina, Valentina:

She states the video is called "UAP V" and is "totally real"
But we still have no date, time, location or anything else — the last frame shows the air speed indicator dial for this Cessna T303 Crusader which shows a speed of 120 knots. It's claimed to have been taken over Santa Fe de Antioquia, Columbia in March 2023
P.s, thank you for the awards, unnecessary. I added the airspeed of the plane and claimed approx location.

Title: First-hand Account of UAP Sighting in Antioquia, Colombia
I would like to share with you all an interesting account of a recent UAP sighting in Antioquia, Colombia. The event took place on May 12th, 2022, involving a Cessna T303 Crusader piloted by Jorge A. Arteaga.
According to Jorge A. Arteaga, the object observed was not a balloon of any type, not a drone, and not any known object to him. He recorded a video of the sighting, which has been confirmed to be authentic. Arteaga recounts that the object was first seen floating stationary at a specific point between Medellin and Santa Fe. He and his co-pilot, Daniel, were flying towards Medellin when they noticed the object.
As they approached the UAP, it suddenly moved towards them, prompting Arteaga to ask Daniel if he saw and heard it. Arteaga then turned the plane around, capturing the first video of the stationary object. As he was filming, the object moved slightly, and he began to "hunt" it with the aircraft. At this point, the UAP started moving towards them.
Arteaga managed to avoid the object while flying at a speed of 130 to 140 knots, which is roughly over 300 kilometers per hour. He noted that had the object been a balloon, the aircraft's wake would have blown it away or disrupted its position. He also ruled out the possibility of it being a solar or helium balloon, as the sighting occurred at 12,500 feet with temperatures around 5 degrees Celsius.
Arteaga expressed fear during the encounter, insisting that the object was neither a balloon, a drone, nor any known object to him. The full interview will be broadcasted on Tercer Milenio 360 Internacional by Maussan TV on YouTube and TV Azteca.
This UAP sighting has been closely followed by researchers worldwide, who have analyzed the images using highly-qualified processes and determined the video to be real and legitimate, as confirmed by pilot Jorge Alcántara.
The videos shared by Jorge A. Alcántara are available in this thread for all researchers and digital analysts who have been following the case, to confirm their findings. The international UAP community is expected to endorse the general verdict, which, based on published analyses by various experts, points to a non-human origin for this extraordinary UAP sighting.
Like I said above, this looks like a balloon to me, but it has UFO reddit and twitter going crazy over it. Maybe someone here can identify the exact balloon again like with the graduation balloon
