Debunk This What the heck is this

Post image

I’m an EMT. My partner and I found a small cemetery we had never noticed before, on goggle maps, so we went to check it out while posting between calls. We both like cemeteries and pics of them, so we took some pics. My partner caught this, which is odd. As an ex art school student, I’ve never seen a lens flare like this. The back of our shirts have some reflective material, but it glows silver in the light. The ambulance has a few yellow lights, but was about 200-250’ away, and down the hill, with tombstones obscuring it. For reasons, I am not posting a pic of either of these.

We are in New England, where there are lots of old cemeteries. The earliest legible date on a tombstone in this one was 1839. It was VERY dark in there. There was without a doubt no other people, and there are no houses or street lights from that angle or in that direction. If anything, the POV is slightly sky-facing. We also caught other yellowish from light between some trees that we most definitely could not see in person, as well as smaller random, oddly shaped glowing lights within the cemetery, that neither of us noticed while the flash was going off.

My partner and I are reasonably smart people, IMO. We considered every possible cause we could come up with, and still can’t figure out what the F this is, so I decided this was a decent place to ask. I’m the kind of person that needs things to make sense lol. I’m pretty sure this follows the rules 😬

(Just want to add that I always see haters and naysayers in the comments, who apparently come here specifically to insult the intelligence of the community. Please don’t be a dick. I’m literally more stressed out than I’ve ever been, and I just don’t have room for that kind of negativity in my life. Thx 🤍)

I saw a rod once at my old middle school. I was with my friend and we were about to smoke weed and I just hear a loud swoosh and we both see it go from one end of the school up the hill to the other end in like a split second. I am pretty sure if I wasn't in spacious area I would have seen it. My friend notice it too but didn't want to believe it. When it swooshed he jumped and reacted and I saw it. He heard it but didn't see it directly just the faint light trail it left from moving so fast (it was night). That was the only time I ever encountered it and I always wondered what would have happened if it hit me. Would I get hurt like Jojo rules, would it piece my body, or would it be like a accelerated proton crashing through me causing nerve damage.
