A strange 'humanoid' object has been filmed floating in the sky above Los Angeles.

Eager alien-hunters captured footage of the UFO from multiple different angles, before posting the footage on YouTube.

They claim it's "undeniable" evidence of alien visitors but some have dismissed the stunt as a hoax.

The footage shows a white object that looks more like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man from Ghostbusters than a traditional flying saucer.

According to the narrator of the video, the UFO is "holding" a type of orb, which disappears from view as it rotates in the sky.

Some of those that watched the footage weren't convinced by its appearance.

"To be honest...as much as i want this to be alien I think it's just a balloon," wrote one commenter.

Another added: "Finally, undeniable proof that balloons exist."

There have been plenty of recent UFO sightings, including a strange craft supposedly watching the orbiting International Space Station.
