Narrative
Time: March 8, 2026 at 3:30am Location: Orlando Around 3:30am in east Orlando (UCF area) I heard helicopters over the house. Went outside and the choppers had no lights on circling the area. There was what looked like a drone maneuvering about which I'd never seen before around here. I've got around 10 minutes of footage that shows more maneuvers before this and one of the military choppers I just need to figure out how to make the video less than 1 gig. submitted by /u/shester811
