A bright ball of light moving towards us faded from sight. Object seen by 6 people and captured on video

We were filming from Cley Hill close to Warminster, Wiltshire, UK when we saw a very bright light. We at first assumed it was an aircraft. When we had been on the hill filming the year before we had been buzzed by a military helicopter. We assumed this was another helicopter/aircraft coming to do the same. We began to film in the hope of getting a close up of the helicopter as it passed overhead. But it never arrived - it was moving towards us and then it suddenly just faded away. We have all this on film.

Just to give you a little more information. we are making a documentary about events in Warminster in the 1960's and the claims of UFO sightings there.

We have spent 7 nights on the hills around Warminster trying to film something.

This was the only time we have seen anything at all around Warminster - however I had a sighting of a similar object in another part of the country in Feb 1977 - two of us saw that one and in 1974 - again in Feb I was with two school friends when two orange lights passed over us at very low altitude - they seemed to have a whitish mist or glow encased them and were almost joined. When you looked at the edges of the balls of light they were fuzzy - the effect you get when you see a light through light rain. Both these sightings took place between the West Yorkshire towns of Wakefield and Holmfirth

I am happy to talk to an investigator - but I do not want my name to be released - but any information I have may help you as you try to put this jigsaw together
