Smoke and orbit in air raid shelter w video evidence//
Hi, I went to an air raid shelter w my friend the other night. We immediately heard some noises, but they stopped after we went deeper. I took a couple of videos while we were there and got to look at them tonight. I noticed in one of the videos a small orbit (at 4sec), a second later a smoke looking thing goes by the camera and then there was another small orbit in the end of the video (at 10sec). I didnt see the smoke thing while i was shooting the video, which is a little strange. The whole night after that I felt like something or someone was there w us.
