A weird piece of footage from Mexico shows a strange-looking UFO that resembled a spiked top hovering in the sky. According to a local media report, the peculiar video popped up on social media this weekend with the claim that the sighting occurred in the community of Axutla, though the date of the incident is unknown. In the footage, the unusual UFO can be seen floating high above the witness, who tries to capture the curious scene with his cell phone.

At one point in the video, the anomaly moves in such a manner that its shape is revealed to be almost conical rather than a classic flying saucer. Authorities in Axutla have yet to offer any explanation for the odd event. That said, with the footage going viral on social media in Mexico, there is no shortage of theories as to what the UFO could have been with some suggesting it was otherworldly in nature. In contrast, others argue that it was simply an errant balloon. What do you make of the puzzling video? Weigh in with your thoughts at the C2C Facebook page.
