  • Bonnybridge. The unassuming little town in central-belt Scotland with an incredible claim to fame - it has the highest concentration of UFO sightings ANYWHERE on Earth. And let's be honest, driving through the Main Street, you'd never believe it. Join us as we pitch our tent right in the heart of town and brave something much more challenging than alien abductions - the Scottish weather in winter! Enjoy the video...

    I don’t pretend to be a travel expert, but I love what I do and would be honoured if you came along with me. My channel focusses on the wide-eyed wonder and excitement of finding somewhere new, and my genuine reaction to it. You may not get a history lesson in my videos, but who knows, you might pick up some useful travel tips along the way, add a few destinations to your bucket list and hopefully be entertained by what you see. Thanks for watching, it means a lot to me :)
    I do ALL of this myself. Planning, filming, editing, promoting, all with a weekly upload schedule, so please understand not every video will be an epic adventure. But my pledge is to always do my best in any situation and KEEP THE CAMERA ROLLING :)

    FAQs:
    WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
    I was born in Glasgow but have lived in Carnoustie, Dalgety Bay, Stonehaven, Edinburgh, Montrose, and further afield (Salamanca, Spain & Devonport, New Zealand)
    WHEN DO YOU UPLOAD?
    Saturdays at 10am Scottish time. Occasionally a bonus midweek video will pop up (in which case, likely to be Tuesday at 5pm)
    WHY IS THERE A DELAY BETWEEN TRIP AND VIDEO APPEARING?
    This is both my business model and a result of doing everything myself. Editing takes time and I also like to schedule videos a bit in advance in case of any problems/illness/cancellations etc. Keeping my uploads appearing every Saturday is important to me, so I don’t want anything to get in the way of it. Also, I occasionally need some time off to recover from trips! But more than anything else, it's about budgets. I generally need to film a number of videos on each trip to break even. And each one of these take a while to fall into place on a Saturday morning.
    WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?
    I film with a GoPro11 and my iPhone12. I edit on iMovie and use epidemicsound.com for music. I also use canva.com for thumbnails etc. I also have a DJI Pocket 3 (bigger sensor) for nighttime, although I’m still getting to grips with it.
    WHY DON'T YOU SPEND LONGER AT DESTINATIONS?
    The usual suspects I'm afraid - time and money! Hotels especially these days make my eyes water like a true Scotsman. Also my weekly upload schedule means I need to keep on the move.
    WHERE'S ALICJA?
    Alicja will feature whenever possible, but she has her own life and a proper job so it can take a while for our schedules to match up. Trust me though, I prefer it when She is there too!
    DO YOU PAY FOR YOUR OWN TRAVEL?
    Yes I do. I've only ever accepted a complementary ticket as compensation for a previous problem. All my opinions are frank and honest reflections of travel as I experience it.
    WHY THE ADS?
    It's my income, I can't do this for free. Notice I don’t have mid-roll ads though!
    CAN I CONTACT YOU?
    I used to list my email address but felt bad not having the capacity to respond to everything so took it down (and I got a LOT of spam so missed many genuine messages along the way).
    HOW CAN I SUPPORT THE CHANNEL?
    Watching my videos is of course support enough, but if you'd like to support further, I'll pop links in here for Paypal and Patreon. All kind donations are super-appreciated and will go 100% towards future filming trips.
    DO YOU ACCEPT SPONSORSHIPS?
    I don't like to upset the flow of my videos, so I don't even include mid-roll ads anymore (at significant loss of income to myself), so I prefer not to include sponsorships either. I'm open to a small slide at the start/end of each video, but I don't want to get into talking about products, it's something I don't like as a viewer myself (especially as a viewer who pays for UA-cam Premium). So it's probably a polite no, although all of this goes out the window if you offer me something which can give me the chance to make a video for my audience that would otherwise be impossible.

    In 94. Me and my family were camping on shell island, Wales the UK. We had a BBQ and then it got to my daughters bed time, so i got them into their sleeping bags and went back to my family. On shell island at night, you have a perfect night sky.. No big cities or bright lights. We sat there admiring how beautiful the stars really are. Probably an hour or so later, this "star" starts moving weird. Remember this is over the Irish Sea. Ireland had no fast jets or anything fast at this time. It must of been hundreds of miles away because it was only double the size of a star. It moved from left to right in a second, then up and then back again. Then it traveled across the sky and did a 90 degree turn... and again, and then did it faster and faster. No human could survive this... As the "star" was moving two more lights appeared from below and me beaning young thought they were docking. But may be they were missiles fired at it because one flashed an the "star" moving it slightly an before the second could hit it shot up and faster than my eyes could see, gone.

      wow! I wonder if I saw this same thing.... from Penally Beach in Tenby. I was 23 at the time so interestingly... the time frame matches perfectly. It was a Fri or Sat night and I sat on the beach for 45 mins or so watching them with some friends, prob around 12pm - 1am.
      It began as one light, that looked like a star zipping around the night sky, stopping instantly and zig-zagging all over the place, covering what must have been 100s of miles in a flash over towards what I think was Gower or North Devon.
      After a while 2 other lights joined in and they put on an aerial show too but for not as long. I then remember them all merging into one of the lights and then in an instant they all just vanished. I
      've never forgotten it and am convinced they were UFOs as we possessed no aircraft capable of doing that (that we knew about then) and they were not flares, lasers or missiles.
      They flew around for almost an hour that I witnessed, making impossible turns at incredible speed and stopping dead, immediately. It was insane to witness!

    I grew up in the middle of the Falkirk triangle and it was always my contention that the reason Bonnybridge saw so many lights in the sky was (a) it was on the landing flight path for two mid sized international airports close by (b) it is right under a major transatlantic flight artery (Europe to western North America) so loads of high level air traffic passes above and (c) lots of military activity back in the day - aircraft used to pass through the area from the likes of RAF Leuchars (now gone).

Also, the local council is on record as stating that despite extensive clean-up campaigns the detritus keeps on appearing. 😀😀😀This mystery requires Steve and Alicjia to investigate further.

    Litter is a huge problem across the UK unfortunately. It's down to laziness of the people who always tend to think it's someone else job, councils no longer employing actual street cleaners in favour of those little trucks that miss half the litter, a lack of bins due to council cutbacks. It's also a lack of enforcement and fines as the police don't often enforce littering laws due to a lack of funding, meaning they have to prioritise other crimes instead of what they see as petty crime like littering and these days even shoplifting.

    I was so shocked at the amount of trash discarded everywhere in such a beautiful landscape I wrote an email to the Bonnybridge visitors centre stating that the council should do something about it!
    It may help if others do the same!
    For a country that has such a place as Fondhorn!

    Alicia with the alien mask on cracked me up.
    I couldn't believe the amount of litter that was around, disgusting.
    Both of you we brave to be camping out at this time of the year.
    Great adventure as always both of you.
    Catch you on the next one.

    This was the most unexpected adventure yet! 😁 I really enjoyed your “We can do this!” outlook despite the weather and low energy. This was such fun to watch! 😎 I had no idea about Bonnybridge’s claim-to-fame, and was glad to see they didn’t turn it into a circus attraction. Very understated and approachable. The only drawback was the litter everywhere. Thanks for sharing your experience with us! 👍🏼

    As a volunteer litter picker and UFO enthusiast, this video was almost the perfect video me, except that you sighted plenty of litter but sadly no UFOs. The Robert Taylor incident was roughly around the same time as the infamous Rendlesham Forest incident in 1980 (the book by Nick Pope with John Burroughs and Jim Penniston titled “Encounter In Rendlesham Forest” comes highly recommended if you’re into your Ufology). It is acknowledged as being the world’s best documented UFO incident.

    Another thing from the Robert Taylor incident is the 'rolling balls' pulled him down to the floor by grabbing onto his trousers. Afterwards his trousers (which were made of strong material) were found to have tears on either side as if something had attached to them and pulled.

  • @qtronicqilt8898
    @qtronicqilt8898 2 місяці тому +2

    This all started off in the 90's and local "people" investigated and took it to the press. I grew up in central Scotland and was driving through that area in the 90's and seen strange lights and objects in the sky. I followed them in the car, what came apparent was, I ended up at Stirling Castle. Even though there was no event on by the castle, this was the time / start of people using high powered lights that bounced of the clouds. The lights were situated on the high castle grounds bouncing off the clouds and for some reason they appeared over the Bonnybridge and the Denny area, if the weather was wet and frosty it magnified those "mysterious" sightings in the sky. (My guess is it was an unintentional Hoax, however people like to to believe in things like UFO's)

    Thoroughly enjoyed your visit to the Robert Taylor alien encounter site, Steve and Alicja, including the confirmation you got from a local that Mr. Taylor wasn't the sort to make up an outlandish story. 👍 Aside from that, in addition to Bonnybridge being the UK's mecca for UFO sightings, it appears to also be the the trash tip of Scotland. And that's unfortunate.

    I’m fairly sure that the litter is mostly from the several big storms we had, one after the other. Everyone’s bins fell over and dispersed their contents. We aren’t allowed to bag plastic and food containers anymore and my council ( P&K) issued emergency bin locks after the first two storms. The litter in the park was people littering though.
