YouTube video claims to show Irish police helicopter in pursuit of UFO

The north of Ireland sure does get a lot of rain, Bobby, and the occasional UFO too.

Crows.

so why didn't you offer them a pint???

Nothing new about this. UFOs regularly visit village pubs in Ireland, after official hours when the pubs are most crowded. But these visits are kept on the quiet because it is after hours. ... This story follows the plot of an old Irish movie starring that kid who plays Nathan on MisFits. Maybe they intend to re-release that movie now that the kid is a big star. Hence the need for publicity stunts.

When the doldrums of August hit, as they apparently have for some Irish news here, how about knitting your brow(s) to think some really deep thoughts, maybe about the economy? That way, even if you drop a stitch or two, at least you will have tried to, say, see the glass half-full rather than half-empty? Knit your brow(s) a moment and try to think about that.

Shock news. Irish Central publishes badly researched, sensationalist story. Another first.

And did you see that other UFO swoop over there in an effort to break up the first two. Thank goodness - an interplanetary war may have just been averted!

Just the whole damn image of a bunch of Martians chasin' a copter load of Mick Cops is enough to make me spit my pint out with laughter...

Ohh Patrick you do like the word village or villager, actually it is Belfast, and it's definitely not a villige. It has a population of 641,638. That would be a very BIG village to me. Northern Ireland does have it's own police force (P.S.N.I) the helicopter belongs to them and not the Garda. Northern Ireland does get alot of rain, those rain soaked, cloudy skies......

weird, I believe this is a genuine UFO

The person that uploaded the clip to youtube is from Belfast, so its the first time I have ever heard Belfast called a small Irish village... Also the Helicopter would be a PSNI chopper.. not a (Irish Police) Garda chopper....

unidentified Irish village. oh yes.that sounds credible for sure.?
