A conspiracy theorist has claimed footage shows a ‘black triangle UFO feeding on’ huge bursts of lightning ‘to load their intergalactic batteries.’

Notorious YouTube channel UFO Today ‘analysed’ footage that shows the triangular object in the sky in the midst of huge spikes of lightening powerfully ripping through the clouds in the US.

They are a Belgium-based channel that study videos that allegedly contain alien crafts.

Reviewing the footage, the presenter says: ‘It seems these mysterious objects are feeding on the 200.000 ampere lightning strikes to load their intergalactic batteries.’

‘UFO Today is dedicated to the UFO phenomena in the 21st century. Since the beginning of mankind, people witnessed explainable events in the skies above.

‘It’s in the nature of mankind to uncover the truth about the UFO mystery. Are we alone in the universe? Or is this phenomena linked to earth?’ it says on their channel.

The triangular shape in the centre of the image has enthused conspiracy theorists

In the video the presenter also claims: ‘The UFO seems to be immune to the lightening strikes. The object is absorbing the energy of the lightening strike.’

While many people commenting on the footage agreed it was an extra-terrestrial craft, some weren’t so sure.

‘That’s a hole in the clouds. There’s another less clear hole to the right,’ said one commenter.

Conspiracy theorists claim the triangular object was using the lighting’s energy to re-charge

The bolts of lightning took place in the US and revealed the object believed to be the TR3B

‘Dirt on camera lens,’ Jason Hook added.

The TR3B – or a ‘black triangle’, is a class of unidentified flying object.

These are large, silent, black triangular objects often hovering or slowly cruising at low altitudes over cities and highways.

Some say it is a top secret spy plane developed by the United States Air Force, but evidence to support this is scarce.
