My quadcopter was about 320ft up in the air at the time.

  1. Can you post where this is and exactly what time?

    Nevermind, this is someone filming a screen while pointing a green laser at the screen, camera is recording the reflection. Possibly off of a mirror.

    Very cool.

    I hope its an alien that got tired of having a laser pointed at him and he’s fighting back.

  3. Laser pointer from someone in a stationary helicopter? I saw some sort of aviation lights at the start of the video. Maybe they could see a light on your drone and were aiming at it?

  4. Huh, this might be the first time I’ve seen an E.L.F caught on camera.

    EDIT: So this is more likely someone filming a screen while shining a laser light behind it, but if it was legitimate, it would be a strong candidate for some weird form of sprite or elf.

    This is typical, it’s called Spazzy Green Laser Beam Lightning – it’s rare but it does happen sometimes. 

  6. Interesting for sure! Especially when it descends rapidly to a much lower altitude then continues to flash around. Kind of rules out the laser pointer on an airplane thought.

    I think it might be a reflection in a mirror of a laser pointer being shined out an airplane.

  8. Sorry to be so skeptical, but if it’s a quadcopter, how come it didn’t rotate or show the ground below? (Too much carpet down there?) Isn’t it just a reflection of a green laser pointer on the glass?

    Thats wild. Did it look just like that to the naked eye too? How far away was it you think?
