Warning: There are spoilers ahead for "The Walking Dead."
If you were paying close attention while watching "The Walking Dead" Sunday evening, you may have noticed something that looked out of place.
After Rick went to battle with an armored walker and came out victorious, viewers caught a glimpse of something flying over Rick's shoulder in a shot that looked a lot like a plane.
Take a look:
Anyone else notice the airplane fly behind me? 👀 #TheWalkingDeadpic.twitter.com/4FF1LjXDJk

Fans took to social media to also ask if the object in the sky was a bird or a plane:
#TheWalkingDead Did anyone else see the plane go by when Rick was at the top of the garbage heap?

After Rick crawled out of the pit. I spotted a fly over. Either Negan has a plane or someone missed an edit. #TWD#TheWalkingDead

Anyone else see the plane flying behind Rick after he killed the beast? #TheWalkingDead#TalkingDead

Considering how far we are into the zombie apocalypse, it's a bit difficult to believe there's someone out there with enough fuel to be flying a plane around. The most logical response is that the plane wasn't caught in the editing room, but it's still fun to think there could be even more people out there.
As we're learning this season, the world is a lot larger than just Rick and his group of survivors.
