Open this case in the interactive AtlasCase description
The case title dates this Tilly-sur-Seulles (14) observation to 8 August 2012, but the narrative says Wednesday 8 August 2014. At about 14:40, several people saw numerous black shapes floating and falling across a clear sky. One took photographs and 2 videos; the objects sometimes looked frayed. The observation lasted 5 minutes without unusual sound. Only 1 account was collected.
The account has very good evidential substance, being precise and supported by photographs and videos, despite coming from a single reporting witness. The investigation report finds the appearance and movement broadly with the wind very consistent with debris from a balloon that burst in flight, or more probably combustion debris from a nearby fire.
The case is classified B: probable assorted lightweight windborne debris.
