The image seen in the video is not a UFO. It is actually the Sutro tower located in San Francisco. The claim of the airplane being 38,000ft is incorrect as the tower is 977ft, standing atop a hill (putting it at 1,811 feet above sea level). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sutro_Tower https://twitter.com/ProductofN/status/1635972184656199683 Common flight path to SFO: https://www.flightradar24.com/airport/sfo
