Location of Sighting: Portland, Oregon
Date of Sighting: 2012
Time of Sighting: 8 PM Pacific Time
Description: Hey there. I’d like to share a sighting video with you. Can I send it over text? This was in Portland, OR circa 2012. At the time I owned a barbershop and had just closed up for the night. It was most likely around 8 PM or just shortly after. I saw what looked like a humanoid figure floating down from the sky. I stopped at a stop sign and rolled down my window to get a better look. It eventually landed on someone’s balcony and I lost sight of it. I’ve had video professionals analyze the video, but nothing conclusive was found. Any ideas on what it is would be greatly appreciated!
Note: I have never had a report of floating figure like this. I have seen similar videos taken on TV documentaries.

Did you go up to the home of the person who had the balcony on which it landed and ask them if they had any “unusual visitors” ?
No, I did not. My understanding is that the photographer did not go to the house. The incident happened in Oregon and live in Montana. BTW that is a good question.
It reminds me of the mysterious jet pack guy who flies around near LAX. Personally, I believe it is someone or something that is ahead of our time. Because we don’t have technology that is quiet and discreet like in this case, and the jet pack guy in Los Angeles.
I really don’t think it’s a bag. The shape at the top part remains consistent and not flaily, as one would expect of a plastic bag. Also, I noticed that the object is descending against the wind, as it can be appreciated by the movement of the tree branches in the video. It is very intriguing, indeed.
Good comments. Thanks.
This is very interesting. I live south of Portland and one time in the 90’s I was fooled by a black plastic trash bag floating from thermals and looking like a real UFO. I watched it move just like this object and then drop down and land. I was able to go to the place where it landed and to see it was a black trash bag. I thought I was going to see the real thing. However, this object could be the same thing, but the shape is unusual. I wonder if this was a hot day for thermals and this was a trash bag coming down from end of day cooling? Nice video. Could be the real thing?
Thanks for the comments. Unfortunately the witness doesn’t recall the date. Knowing the date one could determine if convection could have produced conditions for a plastic bag to have risen and then descending.
