UFOs (Or Balloons) Attack Manhattan! [Video]

It’s been your time since Long island had a decent UFO panic. Today, New Yorkers were frozen in their tracks by what should have been a swarm of aliens looking for the costliest cigarettes inside the Universe. (Or balloons.)

According to the Daily News

A mysterious shiny object floating high over Manhattan’s West Side result in a flurry of news and wild speculation Wednesday that a UFO was flying over the town.

Police and the FAA said they began getting flooded with calls starting at 1:30 p.m. from people reporting a silvery object hovering high over Chelsea.

But then the video the Daily News embeds in their article actually shows a gaggle of things that look a great deal like balloons. (NYPD thinks they’re balloons, too.) And in Twitter user Evrybdyhateslex’s video, that you could’t see anything, although his running commentary makes up for the inability of visuals:

” I don’t know if it truly is the last day in the world. But I’m still living-I’m happy about that. I’m still working. Better not die today, yo.”

I don’t know if this can be the last day on this planet, but let me spend it uploading videos to my Twitter account.
