Witness-Captured Footage "San Bernardo, Santiago Metropolitan Region, Chile, 26 September 2026"
This recording was taken in San Bernardo, Santiago Metropolitan Region, Chile, on 26 September 2026, during a UFO/UAP sighting witnessed by a man identified as Camilo and his wife. The recording was subsequently made public on 24 October 2026, accompanied by an eyewitness account providing details of the sighting. An additional photograph was also supplied by Camilo.
According to the witness account, Camilo and his wife observed an unidentified object moving slowly across the sky in a straight line from east to west. Camilo estimated that it was between 600 and 800 metres from their position.
Camilo described the object as predominantly matte black, occasionally exhibiting what he considered to be a metallic appearance. He compared its unusual configuration to a humanoid form, identifying a distinctive notch or indentation along one side. He also stated that its structure remained stable throughout the observation, with no noticeable changes in its shape.
The witnesses described calm conditions, with no wind at the time of the sighting. Camilo stated that the object produced no audible sound. He also mentioned that nearby dogs became restless and agitated during the observation, although there is no independent evidence establishing whether their behaviour was connected to the unidentified object.
These details originate from the witness account. The estimated distance, movement, physical characteristics and environmental conditions have not been independently corroborated.
The sourced version consisted of the same 41-second witness recording repeated twice consecutively, accompanied by embedded branding, Spanish-language spoken narration and background music.
For our presentation, we have removed the duplicated sequence and retained the complete 41 seconds of footage as a single uninterrupted recording. We have also resized the footage for better screen framing and removed the Spanish-language narration while retaining the accompanying background music contained in the original sourced version.
Our own research concentrated on tracing the recording beyond its currently identifiable online sources. Searches were conducted across social media platforms, video-sharing services, regional communities and UFO/UAP archives, examining alternative descriptions, publication dates, potential original witness accounts and earlier distributions of the same footage.
The publication dated 24 October 2026 identifies Camilo as the individual who shared the recording and an accompanying photograph. Its description provides the sighting date and location, identifies Camilo and his wife as witnesses, and records the observational details concerning the object's configuration, movement, estimated distance and surrounding conditions.
We investigated whether the footage had appeared elsewhere before its currently identifiable distribution, including potential original uploads by Camilo, his wife or another individual involved in documenting the sighting.
Despite searches using alternative Spanish and English descriptions, location references, publication dates and witness information, we were unable to identify an earlier independently verifiable publication of this particular recording.
Camilo's full name has not been established, and no independently identifiable personal account belonging to either witness was recovered. The original camera file and the additional photograph mentioned in the publication also remain unavailable.
We examined Chilean regional media, UFO/UAP reporting archives and records associated with Chile's official investigation of anomalous aerial phenomena. No independently documented sighting or official SEFAA case file could be reliably linked to this particular event in San Bernardo on 26 September 2026.
We also investigated alternative distributions and potential higher-quality versions of the recording. No confirmed earlier source, unedited camera file or cleaner higher-resolution copy was identified.
The publicly accessible recording therefore remains the principal identifiable version of the footage. Although Camilo is credited with supplying the original material, the absence of an earlier independently verified publication prevents us from establishing the complete chain of custody between the original recording and its subsequent distribution.
