You Can't Make This Up: Sheffield Wind Turbine Blade Failure Apparently NOT Caused By UFO.

[NNadir]

The £1 million wind turbine destroyed after mysterious glowing orbs were spotted in the sky was not hit by a UFO after all but broke due to mechanical failure, investigators have disclosed.

A 65 ft blade that flew off the turbine came loose after bolts attaching it to the hub failed, not because of a collision, examination of the components has revealed.

Locals near the farm in Conisholme, Lincolnshire had reported seeing orange-yellow spheres trailing octopus-like "tentacles" on the night of the incident, sparking speculation that it had it had fallen victim to low-flying aliens.

But after weeks of analysis the turbine manufacturer Enercon has released an interim report identifying material fatigue as the cause of the accident...

...Other causes of the damage mooted at the time included aircraft, frozen urine dropped from a passenger jet and – least plausibly – collision with a flying cow...

Enercon has NOT confirmed it WASN'T a UFO, however, meaning, well, it could have been.

6. Oh that's funny! The blade is nowhere to be found. Maybe it's been sucked up into space with

Montana Wildhack and other women enslaved by aliens.
