Eagle-eyed alien enthusiasts spotted a boomerang-shaped object hovering above the source of Popocatepetl, near Mexico City. The sighting was made on webcams which constantly monitor the 5,426 metre tall volcano, colloquially named El Popo. In the video, which was originally uploaded to YouTube channel ColourUFO before gaining traction in conspiracy theorist quarters, a bright, curved light can be seen making its way up the side of the volcano before it suddenly disappears.
One conspiracy theorist claims not only is the video proof of aliens, but it is also strong evidence that they are using the volcano as a base.
Prominent alien hunter Scott C Waring wrote on his blog ET Database: “Here is an amazing sighting of a boomerang UFO coming out of a volcano in Mexico.
“The UFO slowly moves up from the side of the volcano, glowing powerfully as it continues to rise and disappear above the volcano.
“This is 100 percent proof that there is an alien base 5km below this volcano as many UFO researchers and myself believe.
“The UFO itself is about 40 percent the width of the mouth of the volcano. The mouth is 600 meters across, thus the UFO is 240 meters.”
At 5,426 metres tall Popocatepetl, which is 70 kilometres away from the capital Mexico City, is the second largest volcano in North America, but experts say that it does not pose a huge threat to locals due to its usually dormant nature.
In 2017, Popocatepetl erupted for the first time since 2000 when ash was propelled a staggering three kilometres into the sky. Since then, there have been several eruptions.
