The feeling of being watched in Is�re, France

Between 5 and 25 July 1983 at around 6 a.m., two people in a bedroom suddenly wake up with the feeling of being watched. They discover at the ceiling in a corner of the room a spherical ball, motionless and silent, the size of a handball. The ball was transparent in color, luminous without being dazzling. The ball quickly crossed the room and passed through the open window. This observation report written in October 2013, although relating an old memory (1983), is very precise; the discourse analysis reveals no sign of false memory or fabrication. According to the opinion of the expert from the Lightning Laboratory, the reported facts closely resemble a ball lightning phenomenon. The very hot and heavy weather indicated by the witness is consistent with this hypothesis. However, since the exact date of the phenomenon is unknown, and there is only one testimony, GEIPAN could not find any element allowing this hypothesis to be confirmed. GEIPAN classifies this case "C" due to lack of precise information on the date. The hypothesis of observing ball lightning remains consistent with the witness's account.
