Google Earth Image Sparks Debate After ‘Crashed UFO’ Spotted in Arizona

Google Earth cameras have captured an object that looks very much like a “crashed flying saucer-shaped UFO” in a mountainous area of Arizona, USA, according to a video recently posted on YouTube. This video has attracted considerable attention.
Upon zooming in for a closer look, the ‘UFO’ appears as a giant, round object, with a white SUV parked nearby.
Posted on YouTube by the UFO research group Secure Team, the narrator, Tyler, claims that the object was even located in a ‘no-fly zone’.

“That’s just too many military-grade [flight] restrictions on this object, whatever it is.”
To date, the video has garnered over 300,000 views since being posted last month. However, the comments below show that most viewers are not really convinced.

User Joshua Youngblood commented:
“I tried searching for it on Google Earth, and observed it more closely. There are some old, dilapidated structures in the vicinity and what looks like a solar panel. I assume this is a water reservoir.
“It’s also right in the middle of Swaggart Spring. And this isn’t a no-fly zone.”
Also, Andrew Hennessey wrote:
“It looks like a half-inflated tent, or even an inflatable boat turned upside down to be used as a tent.”
