Astonishing moment couple spot UFOs ‘as bright as the sun’ hovering above river

A couple were stunned when they saw UFOs “as bright as the sun” hovering over a river in Canada.

Justin Stevenson and his wife Danielle Daniels-Stevenson were driving through Fort Alexander on May 14 when they saw the bright lights above the Winnipeg River.

He stopped at a clearing where Danielle, 32, filmed two “sun-like” balls of light floating silently above the tree line.

Justin, 49, shouts: “I think we’re seeing aliens,” as two more appear “out of nowhere” and start moving downwards.

Other clips show two UFOs hovering as the stunned couple sits in their craft for half an hour watching them.

Previously skeptical of extraterrestrial life, Justin said the experience felt “like being in a science fiction movie” and that it gave him “proof that something exists outside of humans.”

Danielle posted one of the clips to Facebook later that night, where it was viewed more than 650,000 times. Users called it a “strange anomaly” and “a clear image of UFOs.”

Others claim it was helicopters, drones or flares dropped from planes, but mechanic Justin disagrees and maintains that there is no explanation for the sighting.

Justin from Manitoba, Canada, said: ‘My wife saw lights and we were confused as to what they were, so we drove to a clearing where we could see clearly.

‘There were two very bright lights above the river, almost as if the sun was shining, but the sun had set by now. They were super bright, like a fire in the sky.

‘They were above the tree line for a long time, then they started going down and then suddenly two other birds appeared out of nowhere.

‘There were six of them together and they didn’t even make a sound.

‘I just thought, ‘What the hell?’ Then I realized it wasn’t a fire and wondered if it was aliens.

“It was quite surreal and felt like we were in a science fiction movie.

‘I was skeptical before I saw this, but now this has given me the proof I need that there is something other than humans.

“There’s no explanation, so we posted it because we wanted people to describe for themselves what that is.

‘The opponents may have their opinion, but I don’t agree with it.’

Danielle’s post read: ‘We saw this a few minutes ago. What is it? It lasted about half an hour.’
