Thanks I’ve been waiting 2 years for this
Hello there
You are the best LEMMINO!!
Just imagine a group of scientist made a time travelling machine and decided to go solve this mystery and went back in time only to realize it was them who made the scenario happen.
Dammmm son.
That's deep 🤣🤣🤣
Shit, I thought as well. What if? 🤔

False alarm, they weren't weird lights. The blackout just allowed LA to see stars for the first time
lmfaooo
okay this is gold
So, i actually think this was in another lemmino video but this thing happened recently, when they had a blackout in LA people reported strange dots in the sky to the police; it was the first time theyd ever seen the milky way
@@whocares8567 holy shit that's really sad
Hahaha, well as a matter fact the blackout was an effort to conceal the city so in case of an invasion that could help protect heavily populated areas or even make the invaders to not know if the hay arrived or not, also the lumminic contamination of a city would make it difficult for the army to know what to shoot at.
I love that 40’s accent all the people from the recordings have
They actually gave it a name...the Mid-Atlantic accent.
Me too!!!
@@bobbyg9587 yes, it was supposed to promote globalization and integration because it used the "best" of both American and British accents.

It’s especially funny when you know that they’re all hamming it up for the camera/radio. You can find bloopers from old black and white movies and the actors slip into their regular voices when they laugh at their mistakes.
Friendly reminder, a UFO means Unidentified Flying Object, not an alien spaceship.
Yeah, no shit.
Alternatively, use Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) to refer something mysterious flying
thanks so many people think that it does mean alien spaceship
@@drumm4173 and they will continue to do so because these alien fetishists only hear what they want to hear. i recently learned from a video of one of those people, they even think led streetlights which change their color due to failing components in the streetlights indicate that something is coming *smh* and yes i regret checking what they had to say about that in the comments, it might have pushed me to write a comment about their nonsense.

B Sc but this was...in 1942? how tf are you alive to tell this tale?
It may seem like an impossibility for balloons to survive the intense AA fire, however there are 2 things to consider:
1) According to a British research published in 2003, during the Battle of Britain, it took over 20,000 rounds of AA fire to shoot down 1 aircraft. This was because there were only 3 ways to shoot down an aircraft - hitting directly, using a timer fuze to detonate and using a fuze that detonate at a specific altitude. All 3 were very inaccurate (especially at night) such that some claim the actual number of AA rounds to shot down 1 aircraft was more than 100,000 rounds. All this changed when the Allies in 1943 started using...
2) VT fuze (proximity fuse) which was able to detect (using radio waves reflected from target) its proximity to the target and detonate at the closest range. All this before integrated circuits or digital processors were invented. This device was so secret it was not declassified until 1954. An example of how effective the VT fuze is, when the US first tested the VT fuze they had planned for the test to last 2 days where the new fuze were to be used against 3 radio controlled drones. All 3 drones were destroyed on the first day with only 4 shots.
During the Battle of Los Angeles, the US had no VT fuze and fired approximately 1,400 AA rounds, so it is well within the realm of possibility for the balloons to escape damage.
But there is also the pressure waves of a shell exploding. You make good points for shooting down an aircraft made of wood or metal but a balloon would likely shatter after an hour of shelling due to the intense pressure forcing the air inside the balloon around.
@@sayhallo3769 i did not consider that holy shit, you two are smart
@@sayhallo3769 I assume that most of that pressure just pushed the balloon around. Also the pressure from small AA fire is not huge and given that not an awful lot exploded near the balloon (probably) it's quite likely that it didn't have a huge effect
@@sayhallo3769True, but it could also be that the composition of shells wasn’t able to cause shockwaves that big. Depending on the AA guns used, these could range anywhere from 20mm Oerlikons and 40mm Bofors to 90mm m1s firing from all around LA. This mix of smaller and large calibers may have simply not caused large enough explosions at a common enough time. Another possibility is mixing AP and HE shells; AP shells don’t have the same explosive filler as HE shells and would cause less destructive explosions as they went off. This would count for the massive quantity of shells as well as the inability to shoot down the balloon.
@@Palgineer Standard American AA batteries were before the war ramped up were 40mm "Chicago Pianos", 127mm HE guns, as well as many small arms fire like 20mm oerlikons. Depending on the size of the balloon, a single near miss 40mm or 127mm would likely cause it to rupture and pop.

Do you honestly believe that a race advanced enough to travel the stars are going to be concerned or affected by our triple A fire? Hmmmm...
AA shells had a fuse to explode at set altitudes. It's perfectly possible the direct hits that guy thought he saw were just explosions happening in the same line of sight, but not on the object.
But proximity fuses were still under development at the time, weren't they?
@@bajszosjozsef4850 A proximity fuse is designed to explode when it gets close to an aircraft, not when it reaches a certain altitude.
@@bajszosjozsef4850yes, they wouldn’t enter service until the very end of the war.
Wouldn’t they have known if they hit something or not bc they set them, they know when it supposed to go off. Could’ve seen explosions higher up and some random ones lower with the shadow of the objects being shown in the explosion.

This is one of these kinds of scenarios where I actually believe it was entirely a mistake on the military’s part. No cover up, just an oopsie. Someone got scared by a balloon or something
Normally I’d agree with you but that photo of the spotlights all over the city on one spot gives me chills

Hitting objects with anti-aircraft shells back in the day was extremely hard. Proximity fuses (which would explode on proximity to an object and thus make getting a hit easier) were still in development in this stage and highly classified.
Still, the sheer amount of daka would’ve definitely destroyed at least a single target. Think of german AA in the late war. With failing equipment, starved and inexperienced soldiers, AA still downed huge numbers of bombers and fighters.

I agree. The report was objective and well reported. Fine presentation. Your acknowledged correction will also keep you in good stead with your public. Keep up the good work LEMMiNO!!!
It's also not true that there was mass panic about a Japanese invasion of the US mainland, so maybe there will be a correction. The Japanese never had anything close to the capabilities of landing troops on the West Coast, and articles from after Pearl Harbor, interviews, vox pops, opinion polls, etc., reflect that very few people were seriously worried about a Japanese invasion (for good reason).

Mr3344555 and breathing life into it by adding professional animation and editing while properly and clearly narrating? Recycling doesn’t justify your saltiness.

my grandfather was in the anti-aircraft gun during the night, he say to my father that japanese attack on Pearl Harbor has a significantly mental pressure on everyone, and the Japanese power are still very questionable at that time, everyone have no idea. he say that the firing was due to Panicking over something that isn't a Plane. all the station was shouting sight of Enemy in the Radio and making the situation more intense, so they just keep firing into the Sky.
I missed your voice

Knowing your upload schedule, the next video is going to be Top Ten Facts: 2018
In 2019
Literally my fav youtuber and also the definition of quality over quantity
@@zell3332 along with kurzgesagt
Top10Memes was the best mistake ever
hahahaha, it was a bridge to an amazing content creator.
Only OGs remember that
Ahh, the good old days.
Yeah...
I Remember Those Days
Peakay The channel name was originally called Top ten memes
Dude the music effects you put in your videos just give chills!!!
Dad, are you coming back for real this time?
Lol
I'm gonna buy some milk real quick,aight
I love the animations he makes to make you understand the story better. Such animations take lots of time to make and they're not really essential to the video. But he does this anyway because he loves what he does...
Hey! I'm your subscriber. Awesome content. Keep it up!!
This man should have his own show
Aren't we watching it right now?
Yeah, he does.
own show which has 1 ep per year? lol
It's worth noting - weather balloons will only show on radar if they carry a radar reflector - a device intentionally meant to make them show up on radar. My understanding is that radar reflectors didn't exist in the 40s, so it makes perfect sense that a balloon would show up visually and not on radar but it doesn't explain the earlier radar warnings of something approaching. Until digital screening in the 70s, radar was notorious for false positives, and the radar tracked something from 120 miles away to a "few" miles away in 6 minutes, roughly 70% faster than the fastest plane that existed during the war. To me that strongly argues a false positive radar scare as the initial impetus, followed by shooting anything that even looked like it could be something in the sky.
Aliens just came to borrow some materials then got greeted with a barrage of bullets. They never came back and told the entire neighborhood, we were a bad neighbor
I mean if it was aliens its kinda unfortunate they came at a time of war.
When are not having us a little war though? I mean us humans, not just the US.
@@Mutedmouth i mean if all things go peacefully in the future it could end but i guess its not likely
No more major wars, but conflicts will always happen.
Oh yeah i wonder why they came in the time of war, Did sombody not tell them
Oh! Those poor,poor birds.....this changed the migration route For Sure
Byron Lee 🤣
Yep,flying isn't the pleasure it used to be.
Damn this is probabaly why man
😂😂 Their like: Heck no we are taking that route ever again.
I thought you were dead Byron 😱
Imagine being an alien and learning about how humanity made so many things like music and art stuff, then going to visit them but getting shot at
I mean think of any aggressive lower intelligent animals there first thing to do is to fight something that makes them feel threatened so of course we would shoot at them who knows it really doesn’t matter because we wouldn’t be able to do anything to aliens
“These people are craycray, I’m never going back there!”
"these people are crazy, guess we can't play checkers we gotta play chess"
the alien in the ship just trying to make sure we got our bogos binted: "daaaayum ok, chill bro, im leaving chill"
lol
It is known that the Japanese had a better understanding of air currents than the US did, and used balloons with timer-released bombs released from Japan to attack the US mainland. Most just floated over forests on the west coast and did no damage. Some downed balloons were recovered in Oregon.
True, but the first flight of such a weapon was in 1944, this incident above LA happened in early 1942.
@@OGPatriot03 that's just a gap of 2 years, countries have concealed secret technology before
One exploded onto a group of students tho
They where planning on dropping balloons with the plague also. Operation cherry blossom
@@Eireann. Wow, that is *quite* a choice of name.
I’m a simple man, I see a Lemmino video, I click on it. See ya in 2019 fam
At the end of the year because you know year in a review
Hunter Goldenwolf oh yeah forgot about that, eh he might do it in January though
true
I'm new here but judging by the comments you don't upload often. That's okay with me. I'll happily wait for this level of quality.
For you to realize the extent he goes to confirm a fact, his video "Eight Spiders" is a good representation of it. :)
The fact that such high quality content is free will always amaze me man, great watch as always ❤
Yay Lemmino posted! Welp see you guys next year.
Just imagine if there was actualy a UFO with ailiens in it:
"Look at this, they call this a city yes? Look at all those lights"
"Oh look, something is happening, all the lights are turning off, wow such coordination, highly unusual for these apes"
"Wait look, now there are these concentrated flashes... *SHIT SHIT SHIT, FULL SHIELDS, LETS GET OUT OF HERE"*
Also Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
"Shit we forgot to turn on the invisiblity cloak"
"WE JUST WANTED TO WATCH"
lol
There's no such thing as an energy shield. A magnetic field strong enough to stop exploding shells and shrapnel would be insanely strong, so strong probably that it would cause all kinds of issues with anything metallic, including their own ship. And magnetic field is the only field that could stop something like that. But its not stopping air (pressure differential), so the detonations themselves would do damage regardless
@@rykehuss3435 1. This comment was supposed to be a joke. I dont actualy belive that there were ailiens, its just a funny thought.
2. Lemmino made a video a while back on the "Unknown" UFO cases from project bluebook and one of them peaked my interest. I wont tell you exactly what it is but I am pritty sure that I am very close to solving it because there was a prototype aircraft being test flown by the U.S. airforce in the same year somewhat in the same area. I hope I can find all of the flight data and I have been going threw internet archives but finding the specific routs which a plane took over 60 years is very difficult.
"Shells could be seen bursting near the object, but none seemed to hit it". Doesn't sound like any balloon I'm familiar with.
Exactly
The balloon could have had a bulletproof exterior.
Didnt four military pilots, radar just recently catch a tic tac ufo off the coast of California?
Lmao, it should take one anti aircraft missile to take it out.
@@steventipton7369 There weren't any anti aircraft missiles in service at that time.
alien: ground is clear sir. lets land and help these earthlings.
alien afterwards: gets crushed into smithereens.
Saying "may never be truly resolved" as opposed to "unsolved" because we all know who takes that cake

They'll sue him lol

All your videos are fantastic and you make it look effortless
Lemmino - you are one talented bastard
Siim Maran I agree!
talent or hard work? both different and not always synonymous
I appreciate your factual format without spin. Keep it that way.
i just found out about this channel, what a Christmas gift.
@Tyler Durden Sir, you are a New Year's gift, Big big thank you.

J English ik this is kinda random but if you like basketball watch jxmmyhighroller or rusty buckets. Trust me you won't regret it
The dislikes are from the aliens lol.
The US government disliked the video for exposing them lol
No, since the like number is 117 they are from the 117 accounts the Master Chief has made.
