Lights Over Aerosmith Mountain Qualicum/Parksville Vancouver Island British Columbia (Not UFOs - Rescue Taking Place)

Incident happened on Saturday, September 21, 2013

A bunch of sightings reports came through Brian Vike at the Vike Factor over a sighting of lights over Aerosmith Mountain Qualicum/Parksville Vancouver Island British Columbia. Over 40 search and rescue personal are taking place in a rescue on Aerosmith Mountain. A hiker fell and injured himself. Lets hope the hiker is fine.

You can pick up the story from the local TV news channel at – CHEK News and the link is to the video of the story.

The people filing the sightings of this to me, don’t know what they saw. Please keep in mind, I am retired from the UFO field, just wanted to post this story before some UFO sites make it out to be a UFO when they know exactly what the story is about. To many of them out there. I seen a ton of sites run with a story about a UFO filmed over Victoria, actually the headline was “Amazing Video UFO Over Victoria, B.C. Canada”.

I received the story myself and thought wow, pretty cool. Then I did some checking and found that the video was of illumination flares due to another rescue. I had sent an email to the Canadian Coast Guard and made a simple inquiry. The Canadian Coast Guard kindly replied with the answer.

Image Left: Illumination Flare.

I immediately posted the story as to what the whole sighting was about. I even went so far as to notify some folks at their website to let them know what the result of the lights were. They did nothing, I guess having the UFO instead of Flares was a bigger story, know matter the “truth”. One site I informed, I was asked to post it myself onto their website, “but, I would have to sign up to post. Never forgot that, and wasn’t about to sign up.

So many know what some of these objects turn out to be, a simple check on the net would come up with an answer, “for some stories, not all”, some choose to let people think it is a UFO. Weird.

Fireball With Small Tail And Giving Off Sparks Over Eaglecrest Golf Course Qualicum Beach Vancouver Island British Columbia

 

Date:  April 7, 2012

Time:  Approx: 9:00 p.m.

 

Hi Brian, my son and I were out walking the dog around 9:00 p.m. Saturday, April 7th, 2012 and saw the same "fireball"! We were around the Eaglecrest Golf Course in Qualicum Beach, and "it" traveled west to east in a downward trajectory, the same as the other witnesses sighting.

I thought it was fireworks at first as there was a small tail of yellow and orange sparks, but no other flashes were seen.

It was quite far off possibly over Mt Arrowsmith. I got my digital camera and took multiple pictures and also a video clip, some of the images are quite interesting, there was three of us watching we have never seen anything like this before. We will get the images and clip put on a disc this weekend.

Blinking Colorful Star Like Object Seen From Qualicum Beach Over Mt. Arrowsmith British Columbia

 

Date:  April 5, 2012

Time:  Approx: 10:30 p.m.

 

We saw this object from Qualicum Beach at the same time until about 10:30 p.m. It was in the western sky over the Mt. Arrowsmith area and moved slowly higher and lower in the sky.

 

Mostly it remained in one position, with the lights rapidly changing from one color to another. I watched with binoculars and you could sometimes see a beam of yellowish light emanate from the object.

 

It changed shape from a diamond shape to triangular, linear and cross like. My partner took some digital pictures and video, but it was a little jumpier than the real thing.

 

It eventually sank out of view behind the trees. The lights seemed to be along the edge of the object.

 

We are going to try to get a shot of it with a tripod if it comes back. We have sent B.V. a note about it.

Triangular UFO/Lights Seen In The Sky While Driving From Qualicum Beach To Parksville Vancouver Island British Columbia

 

Date:  March 24, 2012 

Time:  Approx: 7:00 p.m.

 

Hello, I read the article in the Parksville Qualicum Beach News paper about the lights over Qualicum Beach. I saw the lights when my partner and I were on the Inland Hwy.

 

It was just after 10:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 24th, and we were heading to Parksville from Qualicum Beach.

 

My partner was driving and so he was not able to pay them much attention. But I did see them, and watched them as long as I could.

 

The lights were quite bright and they were green and red, and the object seemed to be standing still, but that could have simply been an optical illusion if it was traveling directly toward us.

 

It did eventually begin to move, and it flew directly above us.

 

It did look triangular, since we were in the car, I can't say if it made any sound.

In the article, you ask about information concerning the origin of the lights. I don't know about that but, at the same time as this triangular object was in the sky directly in front of us, I also saw a plane heading southeast, which also ended up right in front of us.

 

From my view point, it would have been within view of this object. Perhaps the people in the plane saw it?

Bright Light And Unusual Sound Wake Up Folks In A Neighborhood At Qualicum Beach Vancouver Island British Columbia

 

Date:  September 24, 2011

Time:  12:15 a.m.

 

I live in Qualicum Beach B.C. At 12:15 a.m. on Saturday, September 24, 2011, I was awakened by my dog. He was in a state of high anxiety, pacing, panting, going to the window and jumping at the bed to get me up. 

 

As I got out of bed in the dark house, I was aware of light everywhere that grew bright and then went dim, then went bright and dimmed again. 

 

I then realized it was not the lights in the house. It was outside. I went to the window and the whole sky was lit up then dimmed and went dark again, then repeated. This was accompanied by a loud “vroom, vroom” sound. 

 

People on the street go to bed early, but I saw my neighbour across the street had their lights on. 

 

I phoned my neighbour and asked if they knew what was going on. She told me that her husband was in bed upstairs while she was watching a movie on TV downstairs. 

 

She heard noises and thought her 14 year old daughter was moving furniture on the second floor. Then her daughter called her and told her to come quickly. 

 

She ran upstairs and her daughter was at the window. Her daughter described the same brightening and dimming of the sky that I had seen, and also said she had seen a bright orange light in the sky. 

 

She said it then sounded like someone turned on a giant vacuum cleaner in the sky. (This was a very good description of the sounds I heard.) 

 

As I continued to speak with my neighbour, I heard the same sounds receding in the distance.

 

I am not aware of anyone else seeing this. Unfortunately, it had such a lasting impression on my dog that he now becomes highly anxious whenever there is a wind storm and keeps me up all night. 

 

Previously, for almost nine years, he was never the least bit bothered by wind, rain or thunder.

 

I am curious to know whether you had any other reports regarding that night.

Unknown Lights Seen From Qualicum Beach Vancouver Island British Columbia

 

Date:  March 24, 2012

Time:  Approx: 7:00 p.m.

 

Referring to the article in the Parksville News, we too saw strange lights on Saturday night.  We were looking at Mount Arrowsmith and saw lights moving up and down the mountain.

 

They were at different altitudes, separated by what looked like, several hundred feet. We saw white and red lights moving and thought it was very strange. 

 

It was before darkness set in, so it was approximately 7:00 p.m. We were looking from our home in Qualicum Beach and had never seen lights on the mountain before. 

 

We would be interested to know if anybody else saw lights at that time.

Triangular Shaped Craft Seen By Others Over Qualicum Beach British Columbia

 

Date:  Over the last four years. (reported posted March 28, 2012

Time:  Evenings.

 

Mr. Brian Vike, today, March 27, 2012 we read your article in the Parksville/Qualicum local news. Surprised to hear that others saw a similar object that my son, husband and I witnessed from our back patio. 

 

It was really large, triangular shaped with bright coloured flashing lights, and very high up off to the right. We live in Qualicum Beach facing west towards Arrowsmith Mountain.

 

My husband said he has seen it many times in the last 2 years. Sincerely.

 

Additional Information:

 

Hi Brian, it was definitely not a helicopter, since the flashing lights were far brighter than the marker lights of any helicopter I have ever seen.

 

The object appeared to be in excess of a mile away from us, and all though the night air was still we did not hear any sound resembling that of a aircraft or helicopter. 

 

My husband has seen the object from time to time over the last 4 years. Due to this last sighting and confirmation in the local news, we are now convinced that the object we saw was surreal.

Flaming Orange Object With Tail Over Qualicum Beach British Columbia

 

Date:  August 24, 2009

Time:  Evening.

 

Date of sighting, the 24th

 

I also live in Qualicum Beach. Tonight my son and I saw a strange light in the sky. Last Thursday we saw the same type of light, but that night a second light appeared.

 

My son noticed the light first on both occasions. The first time we saw it, I thought it may have been a fire of some kind. It was a flaming orange colour and it seemed to vary its intensity. It appeared as if it was travelling towards us.

 

It was very low in the sky, just above some trees. A second light appeared a few minutes after we began watching. This light seemed whiter and was much smaller.

 

It vanished before the orange light did. Tonight, we saw the same orange light in the sky. It appears just above the tree line. We viewed it for about 3 minutes or so and it just disappeared again. Looking through a pair of binoculars, it appears to have some sort of a smoke trail.

 

It seems to stay in the same place although, it may move up and down. We are wondering if anyone else has seen these lights or if they may have an explanation for us. Thanks.

Bright Light/UFO Comes To A Stop And Hovers Over Qualicum District Vancouver Island British Columbia

 

Date:  October 22, 2011

Time:  7:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 1

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Very bright light.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: I was on my porch talking with my brother on the phone and having a cigarette. It was the very last minutes of dusk and I was looking up at the stars. From my left side I saw a very bright light moving at a pretty fast pace.

I knew right away it was not a satellite because it was obviously closer to earth and much bigger and much brighter. Our porch has a very large clearing of trees surrounding it so I had a good view of the object. It came from my left and continued over my head.

As it passed, it "wobbled" in a very unusual way while still maintaining it's speed. As it moved to my right it completely stopped and remained stationary for a few seconds and then continued on finally disappearing behind the trees.

I had a very similar experience a year and a half ago with several friends in Esquimalt (! Victoria) and we were all surprised by what we saw, to see it again is unbelievable!

Two UFOs Hovering Over The Trees At Horne Lake Road Qualicum Beach British Columbia

Date: October 2009
Time: 8:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Horne Lake Rd, Qualicum Beach.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of Objects: 2
Shape of Objects: Orb-ish.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: While driving home from work I noticed a light in the sky. It was hard to tell how many meters above me it was. This light was round with what looked like a drop coming from the bottom of it. I saw it through the trees as I was coming down the hill and then I noticed that there were two of them, one slightly above the other, just hanging above the trees.

I slowed down, watching these to see if they were man made or what, exactly, they were. They were glowing and silent. I pulled over to watch them slowly move away and then they disappeared out of sight. I drove to the bottom of the hill, hoping to see them again, but there was no sign of them. A few months ago, I was talking to a friend about this and she interrupted, saying she had seen exactly what I had seen. Very strange.

Strange Lights Spotted Over Qualicum Beach

By Neil Horner - Parksville Qualicum Beach News

Published: August 19, 2010 7:00 PM

While many eyes were turned towards the heavens last week to watch the annual Perseid meteor shower, at least two sets of those eyes in Qualicum Beach saw more than they bargained for.

Brian Vike, a Houston, B.C. resident who heads up Sightings.com, a UFO network, said he received a report of something even more unusual than meteors on Aug. 14.

The time was 10 p.m. as the two residents, whose names Vike would not release, said they were watching the meteor shower when they saw two strange lights in the eastern sky.

UFOs Over Qualicum Beach British Columbia

Date: August 14, 2010
Time: 10:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Qualicum Beach, BC.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of Objects: 2
Shape of Objects: Nocturnal lights.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: While Perseid meteor watching I saw two lights in the eastern sky (to the left/north of constellation Cetus). They caught my eye due to their obvious colour, which differed from the stars around them.

They were flickering and shifting from red, to blue and then to white. They were about as far apart as a loonie coin held at arms length and were pinpoints of light. They were situated relative to each other, one at the 10 o'clock position, and the other at approximately 4 o'clock position.

I was surprised to note that the two points of light then began to rotate, and switched positions gradually, with the 4 o'clock light moving to the 10 o'clock position, and vice versa.

Then, they began move directly apart from the 10 and 4 o'clock positions, but very slowly. The top light began to gradually fade and the bottom light subsequently blinked right out and vanished suddenly.

Approximately 15 minutes later the two lights reappeared, in same relative position to each other, but this time they were located more to the north -- they crept across the sky toward the north star.

When they had moved as far as the Little Dipper they appeared to stop moving. They remained motionless for about a minute and then the top light began to shimmer and shake, flashing blue, red, white colours very brightly.

Three blue streams or rays of light briefly shone out of this 'top' light, and pointed towards the 'bottom' light. After a few seconds the 'bottom' light increased in brightness very rapidly, obviously and impressively, and departed with shocking speed to the west. The top light simply ebbed away and vanished without any apparent motion.
