Mystery Orb Crash: ’It Was Like Armageddon’

Frightened residents in western Sweden reported seeing a bright, blue light racing across the night sky on Tuesday before an orange-coloured orb smashed into the ground in a mysterious phenomenon that has yet to be explained.

“It lit up the sky and flew over us, then we heard an explosion,” witness Jessica Berg told the Aftonbladet newspaper.

“It was very weird. Uncomfortably weird.”

Another witness, 24-year-old Sandra, thought the light may have been due to fireworks, but began to wonder when she never heard an accompanying pop.

“Then I thought it was a comet because it looked a little like an orb. It was red with a yellow sheen that surrounded and followed it,” she told the paper.

“It looked like something was falling from the sky like in a film, like Armageddon or something.

“I’ve never seen anything like it.”

Aviation authorities were quick to rule out initial theories that a plane had crashed somewhere deep in the forests of Värmland County.
