"how does this guy not notice a 900' craft until he's almost underneath it?"

That's a good question. It was completely silent.
Was it a mirage? A hologram? I think I would have been startled.
He had his mind on the deer, not on what was over his head.
As one of my neighbours remarked to me "I never look up".

>"How far underneath it I was, I’m not for sure, but apparently I walked underneath this thing. When I first realized it and looked up, I thought: ‘What in the world is this?’
I raised my rifle up and because I was in such a hurry to go deer hunting and knew I was going into the woods, I did not turn it (hunting scope) down from 9X to 3X. So, when I raised my rifle up, it’s still on 9X. It was real blurry. I immediately turned down my rifle scope power to 3X and I looked back up there at it and I can see what I would call a ‘mirage’ coming off of it. It wasn’t steam. I don’t know really – I’ve seen it like on a hot highway how the heat waves come up. And this was coming down."
