A Google Maps user who claims to have used the platform to locate a 'crashed alien spacecraft' hidden in bushes believes the pilot may be living among humans.
Scott C. Waring, a self-proclaimed UFO expert who is reportedly based in Taiwan, took to his blog, UFO Sightings Daily today, to share his most recent find from Google Maps.
His claim is that there is a UFO hidden in South Africa at the coordinates of 25°53'41.03"S 27°48'5.82"E, that has made markings ‘similar to crop circles.'
And his conspiracy theory doesn't stop at a crashed alien visitor, the Daily Star reported.
Waring has explained that he believes the pilot of the craft now lives among humans and is manipulating our technological advancements.
"I was exploring on Google Maps when I came across a metallic disk landed in South Africa,” he said. “It's hidden in a grove of trees and far from any city.
"The object looks like a classic disk with a pointed hump at its centre. One photo even shows a huge circle around it...similar to that of a crop circle, but then disappears in the next photo months later.
"It looks like this is a landing location of an alien craft that attempted to hide its existence from the world.
"The pilot has created a dirt road to the area and is probably in a city nearby manipulating the direction the human race will go by introducing new technology, cures, ideas and such.
"This needs further investigation. We need someone on location. I'll ask around to see if it's possible to get more info on it."
The apparent UFO discovery attracted the attention of Waring's fans. He claims to have spotted the image on January 20, 2022.
One fan said: "The best way is to go there to the disc and check to see what it is. It can very well be a craft that went down due to problems. It is not a natural formation due to the features it has."
The so-called expert makes frequent claims about secret alien life and hidden alien bases - which he says he has found on Google Maps - on his blog.
Earlier this year Waring, who also runs a YouTube channel and website called ET Data Base , claimed to have found the 'entrance to an alien base' after spotting an odd formation on Google Earth.
He said the peculiar shape is located on a 'small and uninhabited island in Indonesia' and believes it to be a doorway to an 'underground alien base'.
It doesn't fit in with its environment, he explained, and is in a secluded location where 'aliens would love to have a hidden base'.
Using a tool on Google Earth, he measured the opening to find it was 20 metres across, which he says is big enough to 'get a lot of alien ships in there'.
