In August 2023, an alleged satellite video went viral online showing the Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, which disappeared in March 2014, flying in the sky accompanied by three UFOs and simply disappearing. The video was shared not only by social media users but also by some Western media, but it turned out to be an absolute fake.

FRANCE 24 analyzed the evidence. MH370 flight disappeared without a trace on March 8, 2014, during a flight from Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) to Beijing (China). The plane was in contact for 40 minutes after takeoff and then disappeared from radar in the sky over the South China Sea.

There were 239 people on board (12 crew members and 227 passengers). In January 2015, all of them were declared dead as a result of an accident, although investigators have not established the circumstances of the plane's disappearance or the location of its wreckage.

It is assumed that the plane crashed into the sea and sank, but neither the wreckage nor the bodies of the victims were ever found. This led to the formation of various conspiracy theories around the tragedy. They include the hijacking of the plane by the special services of either the United States or Russia, as well as the pilot's suicide. OBOZREVATEL covered the most popular versions here.

The route of MH370 flight

There were also paranormal versions. In particular, a video that has gone viral in recent days shows the plane making its flight when three spherical UFOs appear alongside it. At some point, the plane and its passengers simply disappear in the middle of the sky. The network suggested that the video showed either an alien hijacking or a test of teleportation technology. Of course, both turned out to be fake. In fact, so did the video itself.

MH370 and three UFOs

Even though this video of the plane and the aliens has garnered millions of views online, it turned out to be not new at all. It was created at least 9 years ago and was already stirring up the web in March 2023 after a documentary about the disappearance of MH370 was shown on Netflix.

The video exists in two versions: one filmed by an alleged UAV thermal imaging camera, and the other by a conventional camera allegedly from a satellite orbiting the Earth. The video shows an airplane surrounded by three spherical objects flying around it. After a few seconds, the three spheres collide with the plane and it instantly disappears.

Both videos have been circulating on the Internet since 2014 and have not been linked to the MH370 flight.

They first appeared on the now-deleted RegicideAnon YouTube channel, but they can still be found in Internet archives. At the time, they were titled "UAV captures airliner and UFO" and "Satellite video: airliner and UFO". Neither video mentioned the MH370 flight in any way.

Experts who were shown both videos by journalists are convinced that they are simply fakes and admitted that they had seen the videos before.

MH370 and three UFOs

Scott Brando, the founder of UFO of Interest, an organization dedicated to debunking UFO hoaxes, said that the video was most likely created using computer graphics. In particular, he pointed out that in August 2014, this video was published on the Vimeo video service, where it was presented as the author's vision of the disappearance of the MH370 flight, which was created by a "video editing enthusiast."

Another error in the video was noticed by HoaxEye expert Janne Ahlberg. He noted that the satellite video indicates that it was allegedly shot by the NROL-33 satellite. Obviously, according to Ahlberg, the author of the video wanted to make it look authentic. Such a satellite does exist and is used by the military, but the problem is that it was launched only on May 22, 2014: more than two months after the plane had already disappeared.

In addition, Ahlberg noted that he had not seen any satellite photos or videos that would have taken pictures of the sky from such a location. A satellite would have taken a picture of the plane from above, but not from the side or bottom. As for other claims that the video was allegedly shot by an MQ1-Predator UAV, it is simply not capable of reaching the altitude at which MH370 was flying.

According to Ahlberg, it would be more logical to say that the video was filmed from the ground, but this would only confirm that the video is fake. Its authors change their versions every time the experts expose the falsity.

Earlier, OBOZREVATEL also reported that NASA and the Pentagon recognized the anomaly of spherical UFOs flying "all over the world."
