UFO spotted in Cumbria?

Is it a bird, an insect or a visitor from outer space? This fuzzy shot has aroused interested in the UFO-spotting world. Bob Atkins accidentally snapped it whizzing along as he filmed his dog playing in a pool in Roanhead, Cumbria. Atkins slowed down the footage to see the strange shape clearly and believed it to be a UFO. Expert Pat Regan has narrowed it down to a military project or alien visitors.

He said: 'There has always been quite a lot of UFO activity in Cumbria. But I was amazed by the shape of the object Bob captured - it is a perfect  cylindrical shape.'

'It appears in this video for about one second and you have to go into freeze frame to actually see what it is as in normal play it just appears as four black flashes on the screen.

'This was captured on July 23, 2009 at 3.49pm. In that one second the last few frames are the few that I think are most significant.

'While filming this at the point where the phenomenon appeared I was facing approximately north.'

Did Bob inadvertently capture footage of an undisclosed military prototype aircraft, or aerial vehicle or are we witnessing a mysterious craft of an  extraterrestrial nature?'
