Summary of Video
Wright notes a significant uptick in UFO sightings since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. He attributes this to clearer skies due to reduced pollution and more people having time to observe the skies. Even after discounting 95% of sightings as explainable phenomena, the remaining 5% are genuinely puzzling, and within that, 2% are of particular interest to ufologists.
The 5% of sightings that defy conventional explanations are what intrigue Wright the most. These are not easily explained by astronomical phenomena, military or civil aviation, or natural occurrences. Wright is part of a group called the National UFO Research Society, which aims to organise research and reporting of UFOs across the UK.
Wright shares personal experiences of missing time and encounters with unidentified flying objects. He also discusses his theory that certain geographical areas, often rich in folklore and history, serve as “areas of high strangeness” where paranormal events are more likely to occur.
Wright is open to the idea that UFOs might not be extraterrestrial but could be inter-dimensional or even time-travelling entities. He believes that the geology and topography of certain areas might make them more susceptible to dimensional rifts, allowing these entities to enter our world.
Wright emphasises the need for credible evidence in ufology. He discusses the use of photography and image enhancement techniques to provide the best possible evidence without distortion.
