Two friends from Utah have discovered a mysterious mass on a frozen lake, leaving them to believe that it could be "alien eggs".
The pair poked the giant object and confirmed its slimy texture. The icy mass was permeated with small holes radiating from the centre.
In a film posted online, a voice is heard saying: "You don't just see s*** like this man. Maybe it's aliens. Maybe it's alien eggs."
The video has been viewed more than 11,300 in YouTube.
One user suggested that the strange object was caused by coffee.
They wrote: "Starbucks coffee cup, dropped, splattered all over the place, ice reacted to it differently than its surrounding and a mathematical shape emerged. The while stuff is the latte."
Another viewer added: "Looks like salt cubes someone laid out in a circle to create a hole to fish out of. They might be melting into those shapes."
A third user said: "It's just frozen ice and some of it is frozen harder than the rest. You have to treat this like crop circles."
