Child taxi records UFO light in France

Summary

On the night of September 7, 1987, a 10-year-old boy in Loire-Atlantique recorded a light using his radio cassette. He captured a sound and observed a glowing disc. The recording lasted about 20 seconds before the phenomenon vanished. The GEPAN investigated, conducted reconstructions, and analyzed the tape. Results showed the sound was internal to the device, unrelated to the light. Tree leaves showed no clear signs of alteration. Eventually, the boy admitted he made up the story to gain attention. The case was classified as fully explained.
