A dad-of-three was stunned when he was testing out his new smart phone and captured a UFO in the shape of a fried egg hovering over his home.

The bizarre footage shows the bright circular white and yellow disc-like object whiz across the sky before flipping over onto its back.

David Whittall was playing with his new Samsung phone when wife Becky, 51, spotted the flying saucer over their house in Spetchley, Worcs., on Saturday (1/5) morning.

David, 53, a technical manager at an electronics company, said: “Becky was having a cup of tea in the garden when she shouted ‘What on earth is that!

“‘I’ve never seen anything like that before’.

“I was inside working out how to use my new mobile and I dashed outside to see what she’d seen.

“This weird object was just over our heads and it was difficult to estimate the height, but I’d say the diameter was five to six metres.

“I initially thought it was a weather balloon or a drone but it was far too big for that and wasn’t making any noise.

“I would describe the shape as a daisy or a fried egg and it looked completely flat."
