Video in congressional hearing appears to show Hellfire missile fired off Yemen bouncing off UFO

A video shows at a House hearing Tuesday appears to show a U.S. Hellfire missile launched near Yemen's coast bouncing off a mysterious orb.

The hearing was held Tuesday  at a House Oversight subcommittee hearing on unidentified aerial phenomena.

Rep. Eric Burlison, R-Mo., showed the video, which was taken on Oct. 30, 2024,, according to News Nation.

The video appears to show an MQ-9 drone tracking a UAP orb, otherwise known as a UFO, or unidentified flying object, as a Hellfire missile from another MQ-9 was launched at it. The missile hit the orb, but instead of destroying it, the missile appeared to bounce off.

"That’s a Hellfire missile smacking into that UFO and [it] just bounced right off, and it kept going," said journalist George Knapp, a witness at the hearing. "There are servers where there’s a whole bank of these kind of videos that Congress has not been allowed to see."

"What the hell is that?" he asked.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., asked the witnesses, "Are you aware of anything in the U.S. arsenal that can split a Hellfire missile like this…and do whatever blob thing it did, and then keep going?" Fox News reported.

U.S. Air Force veteran Jeffrey Nuccetelli and U.S. Navy Senior Chief Petty Officer Alexandro Wiggins testified that no U.S. technology is capable of surviving such a strike.

When asked if the video frightened them, Nuccetelli, Wiggins, and U.S. Air Force veteran Dylan Borland said, "yes."
