I was followed home by a UFO last night and I'm freaked out.

Clearly OP is Legit Shook and thought the drone was a ufo until yall clarified it.

You have two options Op. This drone definitely has a camera if it has been following you:

1. Beckon it, wait for it to come down and land, then pull out your dick and cum on the lense.

2. Shoot it with a gun.

You're in Florida so any course of action you take will be okay.

This actually makes me really sad because some of these people are pretty clearly mentally ill and in need of help. It isn't that UFOs are locking on to people that research UFOs. It's people with previously undiagnosed mental illnesses are finding legitimacy in their delusions via the internet. Other people with the same conditions saying "This is happening to me too!" goads them on and stops them from seeking help. It's exactly the same as the gangstalking stuff.

The New York Times actually had a good article about it a few months ago.

Maybe it's hard to see from the video but it doesn't even look close to the size of a bus to me.

I promise this thing looked like it was the size of like a 15-passenger plane or a bus with wings. This thing was not small and I saw no legs whatsoever. My co-workers even said it looked like a plane but was flying too low. Don't let the lights throw you off, this thing is much bigger than than it looks.

Well can you at least show me a picture of what one of these very large plane-looking drones look like, and not the military ones, because I've never seen one? Even the police drones are pretty small. This thing was the size of a bus.

There's even a drone topic on GAF:

There's some big ones out there too. (pictures by gaffer Captive)

Those look nothing like what I've been seeing. This thing had a belly with wings on each side like a plane. That's why the amount of lights on the thing makes no sense to me. I'm totally willing to believe it's a drone, I just haven't seen anything that this thing compares to in size or shape.

Or maybe it is much smaller than it looks? Size and distance can be pretty hard to judge for flying things. Especially in low light conditions.

There's virtually countless types of remote controlled flying contraptions available.

There's wings like these, do they fit the description better?

How do you know that it is following you?

Couldn't it just be a drone that happens to operate in the same areas and same times as your daily routines?

Not only that, people could modify the shape. They could add parts to their drone. To make it look like something else or for other random reasons.
How big would you say this drone+cargo is OP?

About half the length in size of a the building behind it or what?

This is by far the most likely explanation, which makes many of the OPs posts sound like the ramblings of a crazy person.

That's what I mean, there's literally thousands of crazy models you can get right off the shelves, or you can just fabricate the thing yourself, which is crazy popular with RC hobbyists.

They usually also come with nose-mounted cameras so it's not hard to imagine why it could be following you if you drew it's attention and the pilot likes to freak people out for no reason.

I mean what are you trying to argue at this point? Drones come in many shapes and sizes, and everyone can tell by your video that it's obviously a drone. It's not even a question. That thing in your video is exactly what a drone looks like, right down to the details.

Two options remain: it's either a model you haven't seen yourself before, or you want this to be something more mystical so bad that (combined with it being in the dark/you being scared) you're making it more than it actually is in your mind.

You're totally fine. It's not going to get you. Relax. This is what people do for hobbies these days. It's not exactly uncommon.

At worst it's a friend/your uncle fucking with you because they know you're into the UFO mystery stuff.

Yeah, good point. I think if someone waved at my drone I would follow them for a bit. Hoping they would do something else.

Technology came quite around. Maybe we soon can exchanges planes with drones when they sre already that big.

Just in case you're not joking: It's actually a fairly small drone. But it looks big due to the perspective if you're not looking carefully.

If you're intending to come off as logical, "this shitty rock" is literally the best world that we have ever even detected. There are plenty of reasons why aliens would visit Earth. Abductions, political meddling and the like is a different story.

As for the OP, I guess we can say he was followed home by swamp gas / a weather balloon / a chinese lantern. Seriously though, isn't there a huge military base near Tampa? Not that a UFO couldn't be operated but the USofA, because I think that's a more plausible explanation for many of these things than....gas...but yeah. It's likely some next gen military craft.

"That we've ever detected". If aliens exist, their world isnt going to be worse than ours considering they achieved interstellar travel.

Now the question becomes:

Who do you know that is good at flying drones and pissed off enough at you to fuck with you in this manner?

Your scientists have yet to discover how neural networks create self-consciousness, let alone how the human brain processes two-dimensional retinal images into the three-dimensional phenomenon known as perception, yet you somehow brazenly declare seeing is believing? Mr. Inceptional, your scientific illiteracy makes me shudder, and I wouldn't flaunt your ignorance by telling anyone that you saw anything last night other than the planet Venus, because if you do, you're a dead man.

Would an alien really fly on a secret mission to Earth and forget to turn off their headlights to prevent everyone and their mother from seeing them?

After seeing the video in the OP I think it's a star. I've seen stars that low to the ground before.
