Speaker 1: Hello everyone. My name is Preston Dennett, and welcome to
0:05
Speaker 1: a new episode of UFOs and the Paranormal. As you know,
0:09
Speaker 1: I love exploring the more unusual aspects of UFO contact
0:15
Speaker 1: and that's what I'd really like to do today. The
0:17
Speaker 1: topic I'm going to discuss is something I bet you've
0:21
Speaker 1: probably not heard of before. Maybe you have, but I
0:26
Speaker 1: don't think so. I know it really shocked me. The
0:30
Speaker 1: title of today's episode is extra terrestrial hitchhikers. Yes, you
0:35
Speaker 1: heard right, alien hitchhikers. And I mean that literally. These
0:40
Speaker 1: are cases in which people have been driving along highways
0:44
Speaker 1: and this is all over the world and picked up
0:47
Speaker 1: people who turned out not to be human. This is
0:51
Speaker 1: in some ways related to the very well known phenomena
0:54
Speaker 1: phantom hitchhikers. And in those cases, people pick up a
0:59
Speaker 1: hitchhiker which usually vanishes disappears, and these are probably ghosts
1:05
Speaker 1: when I'm going to be talking about are extra terrestrials
1:10
Speaker 1: not ghosts? And I became interested in this after hearing
1:14
Speaker 1: about a few cases. Decided to do a deeper dive
1:18
Speaker 1: and see if I could find more, and I did.
1:21
Speaker 1: I was surprised to find over a dozen cases. So yes,
1:25
Speaker 1: that's what I'm going to be talking about today. I
1:28
Speaker 1: think these cases have something really interesting to say about
1:31
Speaker 1: the UFO phenomenon. They're really unusual. They again occur all
1:36
Speaker 1: over the world, involving different types of ets, as you'll see,
1:43
Speaker 1: and I'd like to take you sort of on a
1:45
Speaker 1: journey through time, starting with the earliest cases, which occurred
1:50
Speaker 1: in the nineteen fifties, all the way up to about
1:54
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, I think is the most recent case. So
2:00
Speaker 1: I've got a lot of cases I want to present
2:02
Speaker 1: to you today, and let's just get started. In the
2:06
Speaker 1: first case I'd like to talk to you about occurred
2:09
Speaker 1: actually in Santa Monica in southern California. This was involving
2:16
Speaker 1: a man by the name of Virgil E. Atkinson, and
2:20
Speaker 1: it occurred in nineteen fifty six. Virgil E. Atkinson is
2:27
Speaker 1: a military officer from Port Winimi Naval Base, and as
2:33
Speaker 1: Virgil says in his own words about what happened to
2:36
Speaker 1: him and I quote, I swear to you what I
2:39
Speaker 1: am about to share with you is truth. While he
2:44
Speaker 1: was in the military, Virgil Atkinson says he's had multiple
2:48
Speaker 1: experiences with apparent extraterrestrials. I just want to tell you
2:52
Speaker 1: about the first one. His first encounter occurred again in
2:55
Speaker 1: nineteen fifty six. He had just met a girl in
2:59
Speaker 1: Santa Monica, kel California, and was driving with her to
3:02
Speaker 1: Port Winemi Naval Base. This is likely along the Pacific
3:07
Speaker 1: Coast Highway, which by the way, has many many cases
3:12
Speaker 1: of UFO and conners, and you can't go a mile
3:15
Speaker 1: along this highway without running into a case. At any rate,
3:20
Speaker 1: Virgil was driving with his girlfriend when they saw two
3:25
Speaker 1: young sailors hitchhiking. And being in the military himself, Virgil
3:30
Speaker 1: decided to pick up the two sailors and give them
3:32
Speaker 1: a lift, but he was shocked when they got inside
3:35
Speaker 1: because they looked very young. He guessed that they couldn't
3:39
Speaker 1: have been more than fifteen years old, and he became
3:42
Speaker 1: suspicious that they were truly sailors, and he asked them
3:47
Speaker 1: where they were heading, and one of them replied the
3:51
Speaker 1: Cousehead Naval Facility in Charleston, Oregon. Now Virgil hadn't heard
3:58
Speaker 1: of this facility, which in fact, at that time had
4:02
Speaker 1: been newly commissioned. Coincidentally or not, he would later be
4:06
Speaker 1: assigned there, but he continued to drive a few miles
4:11
Speaker 1: down the road and then arrived at his turn off
4:14
Speaker 1: and pulled over to let the sailors exit, which they did,
4:19
Speaker 1: and after letting the sailors out, he resumed driving. They
4:23
Speaker 1: had just gotten back on the road and turned the corner,
4:25
Speaker 1: and that's when they came upon a large UFO hovering
4:29
Speaker 1: over the center of the road. Virgil drove right up
4:34
Speaker 1: to it, when suddenly it disappeared. He continued driving and
4:38
Speaker 1: looking back in his mirror, he was shocked to see
4:42
Speaker 1: that the UFO was now back and now appeared to
4:45
Speaker 1: be following them. He was about to stop, but his
4:48
Speaker 1: girlfriend became extremely frightened. She dropped to the floor of
4:52
Speaker 1: the car and began sobbing in fear. So he continued
4:56
Speaker 1: driving and this UFO followed close behind them. As they
5:01
Speaker 1: approached the lights of the city of Oxenard, which was
5:05
Speaker 1: some miles away, this object suddenly ascended at a forty
5:09
Speaker 1: five degree angle and disappeared into the night sky. Virgil
5:14
Speaker 1: Atkinson did call the police and report the sighting, and
5:18
Speaker 1: afterwards he felt certain that the sailors he had seen
5:22
Speaker 1: and picked up and the UFO were somehow connected, and
5:26
Speaker 1: now he wonders if the sailors were what they appeared
5:29
Speaker 1: to be, or if perhaps they were in fact extraterrestrials.
5:35
Speaker 1: And again following this, one year later, Virgil Atkinson did
5:39
Speaker 1: find himself assigned to the newly commissioned Couse Bay Facility.
5:44
Speaker 1: He was there from nineteen fifty seven to nineteen fifty
5:47
Speaker 1: nine and then was transferred. But it was while he
5:51
Speaker 1: was at this base that he had another encounter with
5:54
Speaker 1: what he believes were human looking extraterrestrials. Now I did
5:59
Speaker 1: cover this case in more detail in a previous episode
6:03
Speaker 1: which I called ETS teach people to build energy free Motors.
6:08
Speaker 1: So I'm not going to get into the whole case.
6:10
Speaker 1: I just really wanted to present the extraterrestrial hitchhiker aspect
6:15
Speaker 1: of it. But I will say that Virgil Atkinson believes
6:19
Speaker 1: he was taught all kinds of physics and how to
6:23
Speaker 1: build an energy free motor in so many words, by
6:27
Speaker 1: these ets, and in fact he worked quite hard on
6:30
Speaker 1: it and did file patents with the US Patent Office.
6:36
Speaker 1: So if you want, you can check that episode out.
6:39
Speaker 1: But important here is that Virgil Atkinson believes he picked
6:43
Speaker 1: up two gentlemen who may very well have been ETS
6:48
Speaker 1: and Again, as strange as this sounds, it is not unique. Yeah,
6:53
Speaker 1: a very unusual case, and there are so many more.
6:57
Speaker 1: The next case I'd like to talk about in Lakewood,
7:01
Speaker 1: Colorado to a gentleman whose anonymous we only know him
7:07
Speaker 1: as Norman C. And his case occurred on October ten,
7:13
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty seven. This case is investigated by pioneering researcher
7:20
Speaker 1: Leo Sprinkle, who was then working for APRO, the Aerial
7:24
Speaker 1: Phenomenon Research Organization. Again, this occurred on October tenth, nineteen
7:29
Speaker 1: sixty seven, when Norman C. Was driving to his home
7:34
Speaker 1: near Lakewood, Colorado, when he was flagged down by a
7:37
Speaker 1: strange man that Norman described as being well over six
7:41
Speaker 1: feet in height. He had a forked goatee and was
7:45
Speaker 1: wearing a jacket with what looked like four gold bars
7:49
Speaker 1: on each shoulder, so of unusual in appearance and dress.
7:55
Speaker 1: Norman stopped and the man began to get this communicate
7:59
Speaker 1: telepathically and asked the main witness, Norman, where the north
8:05
Speaker 1: star was and what date it was. So these were
8:10
Speaker 1: unusual questions to say the least. Norman answered the questions
8:14
Speaker 1: and the man replied, oh, in your primitive time, meaning
8:18
Speaker 1: what date it was. So at this time, Norman was
8:21
Speaker 1: smoking a cigarette and this hitchhiker seemed puzzled by it
8:26
Speaker 1: and asked what it was. Norman told him what it was.
8:29
Speaker 1: It was a cigarette, and the man said, oh, one
8:33
Speaker 1: of your vices. The man then asked other weird questions,
8:38
Speaker 1: such as about Norman's car. Norman described it in detail
8:43
Speaker 1: and the man said, oh, this is your primitive mode
8:46
Speaker 1: of transportation. So Norman was quite puzzled by all these
8:50
Speaker 1: weird questions and who this man was, so he asked
8:53
Speaker 1: him who are you and where do you come from?
8:57
Speaker 1: And the hitchhiker replied, I cannot tell you you now,
9:01
Speaker 1: but my colleagues and I will return. So at this
9:06
Speaker 1: point this gentleman walked away and disappeared. Norman heard a
9:14
Speaker 1: strange noise, and looking up, he saw a glowing red object.
9:19
Speaker 1: Was huge, he said, about the size of a football field,
9:24
Speaker 1: and it made a loud, whining noise, proceeded to zoom
9:28
Speaker 1: straight up, joined two other objects, and disappeared at tremendous speed.
9:34
Speaker 1: The third case I'd like to talk to you about
9:36
Speaker 1: occurred in March of nineteen seventy three, and this occurred
9:41
Speaker 1: outside of Mount Saint Helens in Washington to a gentleman
9:46
Speaker 1: by the name of Frank Bales. That is a pseudonym,
9:50
Speaker 1: But this is a very interesting and unusual case involving
9:55
Speaker 1: two extraterrestrial hitchhikers. This next case comes f from Lawn Strickler,
10:02
Speaker 1: who runs the very popular Phantom's and Monsters website. He's
10:07
Speaker 1: a researcher and an author, and this case occurred in
10:13
Speaker 1: again March of nineteen seventy three to a gentleman I'll
10:16
Speaker 1: call Frank Bales. This is a pseudonym. He was twenty
10:20
Speaker 1: years old at the time and was visiting Mount Saint
10:23
Speaker 1: Helens in Washington State, scouting the area for a future
10:27
Speaker 1: canoeing trip. He parked his car and decided to climb
10:30
Speaker 1: up the slopes of the mountain to a certain degree
10:33
Speaker 1: to obtain a better view. But shortly after beginning his hike,
10:37
Speaker 1: he had this weird fear sweep over him and he
10:40
Speaker 1: actually had this vivid premonition of the mountain erupting in
10:43
Speaker 1: a catastrophic volcanic explosion, which freaked him out. He raced
10:49
Speaker 1: back to his car and drove down the steep curving
10:52
Speaker 1: mountain road and after driving for a while, he comes
10:55
Speaker 1: around a corner and this is when Frank sees two figures,
11:00
Speaker 1: a man and a woman, and they were unusual, both
11:04
Speaker 1: in appearance and dress. They were dressed in dirty white
11:08
Speaker 1: robes and were standing right alongside the road, and Frank
11:13
Speaker 1: first thought they might be Hari Krishna's but it was
11:17
Speaker 1: odd to him because they were so far from any town.
11:22
Speaker 1: So he pulls the car over and offers them a ride,
11:27
Speaker 1: and getting closer than he sees that these two figures
11:32
Speaker 1: are very strange. First of all, they are absolutely far
11:37
Speaker 1: taller than any human being, unusually tall. Frank's not sure
11:43
Speaker 1: how tall they were, but he says it could have
11:46
Speaker 1: been nine even ten feet, and he had asked them
11:51
Speaker 1: if they wanted to ride to town, and the female
11:54
Speaker 1: figure turns to her partner and says to him, her partner,
11:59
Speaker 1: I thought we were supposed to meet someone here. At
12:03
Speaker 1: this point, the man replies that Frank was actually quote
12:07
Speaker 1: the contact that they were waiting for. It was funny
12:11
Speaker 1: because at this point another car drove up and stopped
12:15
Speaker 1: and asked Frank if he was all right, and Frank
12:18
Speaker 1: had the weird impression that the occupants of this other
12:20
Speaker 1: car could not see the two strange figures he was
12:24
Speaker 1: talking to. So Frank said he was fine and just
12:28
Speaker 1: pulled over to admire the scenery. And this other car
12:30
Speaker 1: drove off, and Frank invited these two strangers into his car. Now,
12:36
Speaker 1: Frank was driving a little Volkswagon Beetle, and seeing how
12:41
Speaker 1: tall these strangers were, he wondered if he had made
12:43
Speaker 1: a mistake offering them a ride. But to his shock,
12:48
Speaker 1: as if reading his mind, the man said, well, fit fine,
12:53
Speaker 1: and as he watched, these two figures appeared, says Frank,
12:57
Speaker 1: to shrink down to normal size, and they climbed in
13:00
Speaker 1: to the back seat. So he pulls onto the road
13:03
Speaker 1: and he's driving along and he pulls out a beer
13:06
Speaker 1: and begins to drink. At this point, he's wondering if
13:09
Speaker 1: the figures in his car might be angels, and he
13:12
Speaker 1: turns around to examine them, and he was amazed to
13:16
Speaker 1: see that they had six fingers on their hands. Now,
13:21
Speaker 1: the male figure at this point talks to Frank and says,
13:25
Speaker 1: turn around and watch the road. Frank assured the man
13:28
Speaker 1: that he was a good driver. But the man then
13:31
Speaker 1: asked Frank what he was drinking, and Frank said it
13:34
Speaker 1: was a beer with alcohol, and the men said, alcohol,
13:39
Speaker 1: that's poison. Alcohol is going to cause you a lot
13:42
Speaker 1: of problems in your lifetime. This was a prediction that
13:47
Speaker 1: later turned out to be very much true. But Frank
13:51
Speaker 1: became increasingly curious about these two strange figures in the
13:55
Speaker 1: back of his car, and now instead of angels, he
13:58
Speaker 1: wondered if they might be extra terrestrials, and he really
14:01
Speaker 1: wondered how had they shrunk themselves in size, And looking
14:06
Speaker 1: at them again, he saw that they both looked like humans.
14:10
Speaker 1: They had long hair. He estimates that they were in
14:13
Speaker 1: their early thirties. So he starts talking to them and
14:17
Speaker 1: he told them about his vision of Mount Saint Helen's exploding,
14:23
Speaker 1: and the man said that, yes, Frank was correct that
14:26
Speaker 1: the mountain would explode in nineteen eighty. And this man said,
14:32
Speaker 1: and I quote, about sixty to seventy people will die
14:36
Speaker 1: on the mountain when it erupts. And this prediction, of course,
14:42
Speaker 1: did turn out to be absolutely accurate. And Frank was
14:47
Speaker 1: really intrigued at this point and just at them flat out,
14:50
Speaker 1: who are you. The woman turned to her companion and said,
14:55
Speaker 1: should we tell him who we are? And the man
14:58
Speaker 1: said no, Then turn to Frank and said, we are watchers.
15:05
Speaker 1: So Frank asked them their names, and the man gave
15:09
Speaker 1: him his name. It's hard to pronounce, but I will try.
15:13
Speaker 1: The man said, my name is Gerus Yamin, and the
15:18
Speaker 1: woman said, my name is is you? So this was
15:24
Speaker 1: the main part of the experience. Actually, Frank completely forgot
15:31
Speaker 1: about this experience, or at least part of it, for years.
15:35
Speaker 1: He wanted to ask them more questions, but for some
15:37
Speaker 1: reason he didn't fully understand. He didn't. And it was
15:40
Speaker 1: about ten miles outside of Toledo, Washington, when the gentleman
15:45
Speaker 1: said pull over here. When we get out, don't look back.
15:51
Speaker 1: So Frank pulled over. The strange hitchhikers exited his vehicle,
15:55
Speaker 1: and Frank pulled back onto the highway, and despite the
15:58
Speaker 1: men's request for Rank not to look back, he did,
16:03
Speaker 1: and he saw these two hitchhikers. These figures grow back
16:08
Speaker 1: to about ten feet in height and then promptly disappear.
16:13
Speaker 1: And to this day he wonders he believes that he
16:17
Speaker 1: gave a ride to two extraterrestrials. Such a bizarre case.
16:22
Speaker 1: I really don't know what to make of some of these,
16:25
Speaker 1: but there are so many and another case really probably
16:30
Speaker 1: my favorite, occurred to a gentleman who was initially anonymous.
16:34
Speaker 1: He's now stepped forward. His name is Steve Bouche. He
16:40
Speaker 1: is a Canadian musician and he had an encounter in
16:43
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy three with his fellow bandmates with an extraterrestrial hitchhiker.
16:50
Speaker 1: And this was outside of Jordan, Ontario, in Canada. The
16:56
Speaker 1: case of Steve Bouchet was originally investigated by Canadian researcher
17:02
Speaker 1: Graham Conway, though Steve Bouchet would later write a book
17:06
Speaker 1: about his encounters, and at the time that he first
17:12
Speaker 1: talked to investigators, he gave the name the pseudonym Tom Campbell,
17:17
Speaker 1: but has since come forward and given his real name,
17:21
Speaker 1: which again is Steve Bouchet. And Steve says that late
17:25
Speaker 1: one evening in nineteen seventy three, he and his friends
17:30
Speaker 1: and fellow musicians had just finished a gig in Jordan, Ontario,
17:35
Speaker 1: this is in Canada, and began to pack up their gear,
17:38
Speaker 1: and while doing so, a stranger approached them and asked
17:42
Speaker 1: for a ride home by the way. His band at
17:47
Speaker 1: the time was called Harmony Grove, so Steve and his
17:52
Speaker 1: friends agreed to give the man a ride. They headed
17:55
Speaker 1: down the road and here's where it gets weird. Instead
17:58
Speaker 1: of taking their planned room, they turned off on a
18:01
Speaker 1: service road bordering the Queen Elizabeth Highway and Lake Ontario,
18:07
Speaker 1: and after driving for a while, they approached the Charles
18:10
Speaker 1: Paley Park area where there was a restaurant by the
18:15
Speaker 1: name of the Lake House Restaurant, and they could see
18:18
Speaker 1: lights up ahead on the road and Steve and his
18:21
Speaker 1: friends thought it might be a vehicle accident, and everyone
18:26
Speaker 1: in the back of the car was peering, and the
18:30
Speaker 1: driver said, I think you all better take a look
18:33
Speaker 1: at this. So they all peered through the windshield and
18:37
Speaker 1: were amazed to see that it was not a car accident.
18:41
Speaker 1: It was a classic flying saucer landed on the road
18:45
Speaker 1: right in front of them. So at this point the
18:48
Speaker 1: driver freaked out and tried to turn the van around,
18:51
Speaker 1: but said he was unable to do so, and at
18:54
Speaker 1: that moment, the van actually started to float sideways towards
18:59
Speaker 1: the saucer. They tried applying the brakes, but that had
19:03
Speaker 1: no effect. Steve had the impression that the van was
19:07
Speaker 1: actually no longer touching the road, and it floated towards
19:11
Speaker 1: this craft and stopped about thirty feet away from it,
19:16
Speaker 1: and the drummer called out. He says, do you see that?
19:20
Speaker 1: I don't believe it. Somebody's getting out of that thing.
19:23
Speaker 1: And at this point all of the men saw small
19:26
Speaker 1: figures with pale skin and large dark eyes exit the
19:30
Speaker 1: craft and surround the van. At this point, the strange hitchhiker,
19:35
Speaker 1: they still didn't know who he was, opened the van
19:39
Speaker 1: door and the small figures entered the vehicle. In fact,
19:43
Speaker 1: they were so short they could stand fully erect inside
19:47
Speaker 1: the van. At this point, Steve found himself paralyzed, but
19:52
Speaker 1: he could see these figures. They had no ears of
19:55
Speaker 1: very small mouth, and cream colored skin, said the three
20:00
Speaker 1: fingers on each hand. And Steve heard one of these
20:04
Speaker 1: beings speaking telepathically, and one of these figures told Steve
20:09
Speaker 1: that they had rendered him unable to move because he
20:12
Speaker 1: was thinking of attacking them, which Steve says he was
20:17
Speaker 1: thinking that. The figure then said that they would not
20:20
Speaker 1: harm him or his band members, and that their mission
20:24
Speaker 1: was peaceful. They only wanted to examine the men. So
20:29
Speaker 1: Steve and two of his friends were then taken inside
20:32
Speaker 1: the object through an oval shaped doorway. Inside this craft,
20:37
Speaker 1: they saw three chrome colored cots beds, and they were
20:41
Speaker 1: instructed to undress and lay down on these beds, which
20:45
Speaker 1: they did. Steve and the others were then examined by
20:48
Speaker 1: the figures using what looked like dental like instruments and probes.
20:53
Speaker 1: At one point, one of the beings shown an instrument
20:56
Speaker 1: on Steve's body which allowed them to view him is
21:00
Speaker 1: internal organs. They were then separated into different rooms where
21:06
Speaker 1: samples were apparently taken, and Steve started asking them questions
21:10
Speaker 1: like who are you? And the ets said that they
21:14
Speaker 1: were extraterrestrials, but they did have bases on Earth, including
21:19
Speaker 1: beneath Lake, Ontario. Everyone was asking them questions. Steve asked
21:26
Speaker 1: them about Earth's religions and which one was correct. The
21:31
Speaker 1: ets seemed surprised by the question and replied, and I quote,
21:36
Speaker 1: there is no correct religion on Earth. So that's what
21:40
Speaker 1: they told him. This was not a scary experience for Steve.
21:45
Speaker 1: In fact, he felt strong feelings of kinship and love
21:50
Speaker 1: towards the ets, and he became actually tearful when it
21:54
Speaker 1: was time to go. He ended up giving them a gift.
21:57
Speaker 1: He gave them his flute, which they took and afterwards
22:02
Speaker 1: they were returned to their van and resumed their journey.
22:06
Speaker 1: The hitchhiker, at this point was gone, and as often
22:09
Speaker 1: happens when one of these types of encounters occurs, nobody spoke.
22:14
Speaker 1: They did not mention it at all, and in fact,
22:17
Speaker 1: by the time they arrived home, Steve and the others
22:21
Speaker 1: had no memory whatsoever of being taken on board, and
22:25
Speaker 1: it wasn't until years later that Steve's memories were recalled
22:29
Speaker 1: using hypnotic regression. Steve, by the way, is a contact
22:34
Speaker 1: d He has had encounters since he was a little boy,
22:38
Speaker 1: so have his relatives, his parents. Steve did write a
22:43
Speaker 1: book about his encounters called Beyond the Extraterrestrial Firewall, and
22:49
Speaker 1: he says that he did have further communication with this
22:54
Speaker 1: strange extraterrestrial hitchhiker, but she'll have to read his book.
22:59
Speaker 1: I don't want to give it away. If you want
23:02
Speaker 1: to learn more about that, check out his book. It's
23:05
Speaker 1: really quite good. Again, it's called Beyond the Extraterrestrial Firewall,
23:11
Speaker 1: and it's quite an unusual case of an extraterrestrial hitchhiker,
23:15
Speaker 1: a really unusual case. Yeah, if you're interested in learning
23:19
Speaker 1: more about that, definitely check out Steve Bouchet's book. And
23:24
Speaker 1: if you don't believe that case, there's always another one
23:26
Speaker 1: after it. And here's another one. This occurred to two ladies.
23:34
Speaker 1: The main witness is Edmona Toes and her friend Nuria Hansen.
23:43
Speaker 1: This occurred when they were driving near the area of
23:47
Speaker 1: Steamboat Mountain in British Columbia, Canada. And this occurred on
23:53
Speaker 1: October eighteen, nineteen seventy four. These cases do seem to
23:58
Speaker 1: have very high levels of strangeness. And consider this next account,
24:04
Speaker 1: which first appeared in the magazine Fate. This was written
24:10
Speaker 1: by Edmona Toes and she titles the article the UFOs
24:18
Speaker 1: that led Us Home. So again. It was October eighteenth,
24:22
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy four, when Edmona and her friend Nuria were
24:27
Speaker 1: driving along the highway at the summit of steam Boat
24:30
Speaker 1: Mountain in British Columbia, Canada, when they saw two strange
24:35
Speaker 1: lights ahead of him on the highway. One appeared to
24:38
Speaker 1: be resting actually on the side of the mountain, but
24:41
Speaker 1: the other, which was three times the apparent size of
24:44
Speaker 1: a full moon, flew towards them, then darted up in
24:48
Speaker 1: the sky and hovered ahead of them and looking at
24:51
Speaker 1: the light on the mountain, they could see that this
24:54
Speaker 1: was a craft. It appeared to be a craft with
24:56
Speaker 1: portholes shaped very much like a Derby hat, so they
25:01
Speaker 1: pulled over to watch and actually waited for forty five
25:05
Speaker 1: minutes to see if anything would happen, and finally something did.
25:09
Speaker 1: The slanted UFO rose upward, flew one hundred and fifty feet,
25:14
Speaker 1: and then landed again. At this point, a trucker drove by,
25:19
Speaker 1: and seeing the UFO, he stopped, exited his vehicle to
25:23
Speaker 1: gaze at the objects for a short period of time
25:27
Speaker 1: and then continued on his way. So at this point
25:30
Speaker 1: Edmona and Nouria also continued driving. The weather wasn't good
25:36
Speaker 1: at this time, was very foggy and the road was
25:39
Speaker 1: quite icy, and Edmona reports that something else seemed to
25:44
Speaker 1: be controlling her vehicle, moving them along the highway at
25:48
Speaker 1: about twenty five miles per hour. This does turn up
25:52
Speaker 1: in UFO cases. People feel like the UFOs are taking
25:55
Speaker 1: over their car, and this is exactly what Edmona is describing.
26:00
Speaker 1: And it was then that they again noticed a bright
26:02
Speaker 1: cloudlike object hovering only about twenty maybe thirty feet over
26:08
Speaker 1: their car, and it remained there for the entire duration
26:11
Speaker 1: of their trip, and what was really interesting is this
26:15
Speaker 1: was quite a long ride. Ed Mona noticed that her
26:18
Speaker 1: gas gage showed that no fuel was being used, so
26:24
Speaker 1: they continued along the highway. Evening arrived and they stopped
26:28
Speaker 1: at a lodge at Muncho Lake, a very popular tourist destination.
26:34
Speaker 1: Although the lodge was closed, they were approached by a
26:37
Speaker 1: young man with dark hair and a beard. Although the
26:41
Speaker 1: temperature was near zero, this weird gentleman wore no jacket,
26:48
Speaker 1: only a shirt, pants and shoes, and he approached them
26:52
Speaker 1: and asked for a ride, and the woman declined, pointing
26:56
Speaker 1: out that their car was fully packed with belong so
27:00
Speaker 1: that there was no room for him, which was true,
27:03
Speaker 1: there was only room in the driver's seat and the
27:05
Speaker 1: front passenger seat. Despite this, this man somehow persuaded them
27:12
Speaker 1: to give him a ride, and since there was no room,
27:16
Speaker 1: he actually sat on Nuria's lap in the front passenger seat.
27:22
Speaker 1: And here's where strange goes to truly bizarre, because at
27:26
Speaker 1: one point Nuria realized that this man was not exerting
27:30
Speaker 1: any weight on her. In fact, he seemed to be
27:33
Speaker 1: floating about an inch above her lap. And she commented
27:37
Speaker 1: on this, but the man kind of just made a
27:39
Speaker 1: vague response, and Edmona also noticed this. I mean, she
27:44
Speaker 1: saw that this guy was actually hovering a few inches
27:48
Speaker 1: above Nuria's lap, and she reached out and verified this
27:52
Speaker 1: by reaching her hand and checking. So at this point
27:57
Speaker 1: they're both puzzled. They feel strangely op k with what's
28:00
Speaker 1: going on. At the same time a little bit sedated,
28:04
Speaker 1: but Edmona asks the man what his name was, and
28:08
Speaker 1: he stared deeply into her eyes and replied Gordon. Both
28:14
Speaker 1: women felt like he looked slightly familiar, but they couldn't
28:17
Speaker 1: place him, so they just continued this drive with this
28:21
Speaker 1: weird gentleman. It was again a pretty long drive, and
28:24
Speaker 1: they stopped for the evening at an inn. It's called
28:28
Speaker 1: the Fireside Inn. It's a hotel in northern British Columbia.
28:33
Speaker 1: They all stepped out of the car and at this
28:36
Speaker 1: point Gordon inexplicably vanished. He was gone. Shocked, the two
28:43
Speaker 1: of them looked around and called his name, but sure enough,
28:45
Speaker 1: he was gone. And this is when they noticed a
28:48
Speaker 1: very strange detail. There was snow all over the ground,
28:52
Speaker 1: untouched snow, and there were no tracks at all leading
28:57
Speaker 1: away from the car, so this seemed to be impossible.
29:01
Speaker 1: They went inside the hotel. They found another truck driver
29:05
Speaker 1: there who was absolutely shocked to see them, and when
29:08
Speaker 1: they told him that they had just come one hundred
29:11
Speaker 1: and sixty five miles from steam Boat Mountain, he didn't
29:16
Speaker 1: believe them, and so that that was impossible, as the
29:19
Speaker 1: road conditions made that route absolutely impassable. So something was
29:25
Speaker 1: going on there. The strangeness continued the next morning as
29:29
Speaker 1: they continued their trip, because again, as they drove along
29:33
Speaker 1: the road, this strange, glowing cloudlike object returned and hovered
29:38
Speaker 1: above their car. And although the weather was blizzarding, the road,
29:43
Speaker 1: they said, seemed to be dry and free of snow
29:45
Speaker 1: in front of them. And at some point during their trip,
29:49
Speaker 1: their car engine mysteriously failed, they said. Two mysterious gentlemen
29:55
Speaker 1: showed up, seemed to know all about the two women
29:58
Speaker 1: and their trip, and actually helped them restart their car,
30:03
Speaker 1: and then they left under mysterious circumstances. So the two
30:07
Speaker 1: women drove up into Alaska to Edmona's home in Anchorage, Alaska,
30:12
Speaker 1: and it was only then that this glowing cloud like
30:15
Speaker 1: object above their car disappeared, So a very strange series
30:21
Speaker 1: of events, which Edmona did write about in Fate magazine.
30:25
Speaker 1: And it was only later after this incident that she
30:29
Speaker 1: realized that this strange hitchhiker did in some ways have
30:33
Speaker 1: an appearance similar to her husband, but she doesn't know
30:37
Speaker 1: what's going on here. After reviewing the entire journey, they
30:41
Speaker 1: finally came to the conclusion that Gordon was either an
30:45
Speaker 1: angel or more likely given that she had seen UFOs
30:49
Speaker 1: in Extra Terrestrial So yeah again. She wrote this up
30:54
Speaker 1: in Fate Magazine in an article titled the UFOs That
30:58
Speaker 1: Led Us Home. So yeah, make of that case what
31:02
Speaker 1: you will. It's a very interesting case. And here's yet another.
31:08
Speaker 1: This current case took place somewhere in the deserts of Arizona.
31:14
Speaker 1: The exact location wasn't specified, but this case occurred to
31:20
Speaker 1: two ladies. One of them is named Lois, the other
31:25
Speaker 1: is her friend Gina, and this occurred in nineteen seventy eight.
31:31
Speaker 1: This next case comes from researcher Brad Steiger. Again, it
31:36
Speaker 1: occurred in November of nineteen seventy eight to Lois and
31:40
Speaker 1: her friend Gina. Lois was a church going businesswoman from Arizona,
31:45
Speaker 1: and was driving with her friend Gina from Denver, Colorado,
31:50
Speaker 1: to Phoenix, Arizona, and they were on a remote section
31:54
Speaker 1: of highway in Arizona when they saw a hitchhiker. There's
32:00
Speaker 1: nothing around here, there are no towns. This is just
32:03
Speaker 1: an isolated section of desert highway. And here's this gentleman,
32:07
Speaker 1: which they described as being very handsome, clean shaven, with
32:11
Speaker 1: long blonde hair, brilliant sky blue eyes, and he was
32:16
Speaker 1: wearing a flannel shirt and jeans. Now, Lois is not
32:21
Speaker 1: in the habit of picking up hitchhikers. She had never
32:24
Speaker 1: picked up a hitchhiker before, in fact, and being two
32:28
Speaker 1: women alone on a highway, this was not something that
32:31
Speaker 1: they would normally have done. But Lois said she felt
32:35
Speaker 1: strangely compelled to slow down and stop. She couldn't help herself.
32:39
Speaker 1: And this man leaned in the window and spoke in
32:42
Speaker 1: a soft musical voice and said, and I quote, I'm
32:47
Speaker 1: so glad you've come. We've been waiting for you. So
32:52
Speaker 1: Gina was absolutely entranced by this gentleman. As she says,
32:56
Speaker 1: as crazy as it sounds, it was as if I
32:59
Speaker 1: had known him all my life. Gina is usually kind
33:03
Speaker 1: of shy around strangers, especially males, but she was smiling
33:08
Speaker 1: from ear to ear, as if she was greeting an
33:11
Speaker 1: old friend. So both the women seemed to be in
33:15
Speaker 1: some ways hypnotized, if you will, or entranced by this
33:19
Speaker 1: guy who enters the car and begins to speak to
33:22
Speaker 1: them in soft, soothing musical tones. And suddenly, to their amazement,
33:29
Speaker 1: their cars actually levitated off the highway and floated into
33:34
Speaker 1: a large craft hovering pretty high up there overhead. Next
33:38
Speaker 1: thing they know, they are inside the craft. And I'll
33:42
Speaker 1: just let Lois describe what happened next. As Lois says,
33:47
Speaker 1: Gina and I were separated, and I didn't see her
33:50
Speaker 1: again for quite a while. The beautiful hitchhiker disappeared, and
33:54
Speaker 1: I was surrounded by smallish entities with large, staring eyes.
33:59
Speaker 1: Their mouths were straight lines that I never saw open,
34:02
Speaker 1: but I seemed to hear voices, perhaps by telepathy. Lois
34:07
Speaker 1: found herself obeying docilely, as if hypnotized, as the beings
34:12
Speaker 1: undressed her and instructed her to lay down on the table.
34:16
Speaker 1: The beings then examined her, took samples of her blood,
34:19
Speaker 1: her skin, her hair. She had the sense that they
34:23
Speaker 1: were interested in the fact that she was infertile, but
34:27
Speaker 1: they also seemed to be very interested in their possessions
34:30
Speaker 1: as well, her purse and so forth, and as Lois says,
34:36
Speaker 1: they still seemed to be examining my clothing, my purse,
34:39
Speaker 1: everything that I had with me. I had been really
34:42
Speaker 1: nervous when the hitchhiker brought us aboard the space vehicle,
34:45
Speaker 1: but it kept saying over and over that Gina and
34:48
Speaker 1: I had nothing to fear, that they would not hurt us.
34:53
Speaker 1: So after this exam, Lois was taken to another room
34:56
Speaker 1: where she sat on what appeared to be a comfortable
34:59
Speaker 1: sofa facing a large window which showed a panorama of stars.
35:05
Speaker 1: An old bearded man, human looking entered and told Lois
35:09
Speaker 1: that she had been contacted because she was one of them,
35:12
Speaker 1: and that she would remember all of this in the
35:15
Speaker 1: fullness of time. Lois asked them why she had been examined,
35:20
Speaker 1: and the being replied, to see how you are, to
35:23
Speaker 1: see if you are well, And she said, well, why
35:27
Speaker 1: do you care about me? And the man replied, because
35:31
Speaker 1: you have the key. That puzzled Lois, so she asked
35:35
Speaker 1: him what key do I have? And he said, you
35:39
Speaker 1: will remember when the time is right. The next thing,
35:43
Speaker 1: Lois and Gina know, they're back on the highway in
35:47
Speaker 1: their car. On the road, they were both hungry, thirsty,
35:50
Speaker 1: and somewhat dazed. They drove silently into the next town
35:55
Speaker 1: and here's where they got an incredible shock. They they
36:00
Speaker 1: called their families and friends who were frantic with worry,
36:04
Speaker 1: and told them that they were missing for five days.
36:09
Speaker 1: So this is very much like the Travis Walton case.
36:12
Speaker 1: Very unusual for people to be missing that long. But
36:15
Speaker 1: this is what happened to Lois and Gina. Now following
36:19
Speaker 1: this event, Gina absolutely refused to talk about it. Lois
36:24
Speaker 1: said her home became stricken with poltergeist like activity, and
36:29
Speaker 1: in fact, her children began reporting bedroom visitations by strange entities.
36:34
Speaker 1: This activity became so intense it caused friction with her marriage,
36:40
Speaker 1: and Lois's husband actually divorced her. The weird activity continued,
36:45
Speaker 1: and in the mid nineteen eighties, Lois's youngest daughter, who
36:50
Speaker 1: was four years old, told Lois and I quote, Mommy,
36:55
Speaker 1: it won't be long now before the hitchhiker comes back
36:58
Speaker 1: to see you. Really shocked Lois, and she had not
37:02
Speaker 1: told anyone about her encounter and that's where this case rests.
37:09
Speaker 1: I don't know anything more about this encounter. Brad Steiger
37:12
Speaker 1: never revealed anything else. As of nineteen eighty eight, this
37:16
Speaker 1: hitchhiker has not returned, so I don't know. But as
37:21
Speaker 1: you can see, in a number of these cases, these
37:24
Speaker 1: hitchhikers appear and the next thing people know they are
37:27
Speaker 1: being taken on board. Not always. I love these cases.
37:31
Speaker 1: They're so strange, and it's interesting that there's a number
37:36
Speaker 1: of them that have occurred in the state of Arizona.
37:40
Speaker 1: Because here's another one. This one occurred outside of Yuma, Arizona.
37:45
Speaker 1: This is in two thousand and four, and the main
37:48
Speaker 1: witness is a retired anonymous airline pilot. It's a very
37:54
Speaker 1: unusual case. This case comes from Jan Harazan, a UFO
37:59
Speaker 1: researcher and actually the former executive director from MUFAN, and
38:05
Speaker 1: in two thousand and four, Jan Harzan says he received
38:09
Speaker 1: an intriguing call from a retired airline pilot. This pilot
38:14
Speaker 1: is no slouch. I mean, he's got an impressive resume
38:18
Speaker 1: with more than forty thousand hours of flying time. And
38:23
Speaker 1: again this encounter occurred when the pilot picked up a
38:29
Speaker 1: hitchhiker about fifteen miles outside of Yuma, Arizona, and I'll
38:36
Speaker 1: just quote Jan Harzan here as Jen Harzen says he
38:41
Speaker 1: the pilot found it strange that this man was out
38:44
Speaker 1: in the middle of nowhere, literally out in the middle
38:47
Speaker 1: of the desert, standing on the side of the road
38:50
Speaker 1: with his thumb out. He normally did not pick up hitchhikers,
38:54
Speaker 1: but something told him to stop and give this guy
38:58
Speaker 1: a ride. So this is very similar to the previous
39:01
Speaker 1: case I just cited. Anyway, the hitchhiker told the pilot
39:06
Speaker 1: that he was looking for a ride to San Diego, California.
39:10
Speaker 1: This surprised the pilot and because that's where he was going,
39:14
Speaker 1: and this is what he told the gentleman, the hitchhiker
39:17
Speaker 1: that he was actually heading to that city. And as
39:21
Speaker 1: they spoke, the hitchhiker revealed something incredible. He said flat
39:27
Speaker 1: out that he was an extraterrestrial, that this was not
39:31
Speaker 1: his normal form, and that he was in disguise. He
39:34
Speaker 1: said he had come to help humankind and was on
39:38
Speaker 1: his way to a research facility in San Diego. Now
39:44
Speaker 1: Jan Harzen again spoke with this pilot the main witness
39:48
Speaker 1: and said that this gentleman was absolutely sincere. And the
39:53
Speaker 1: witness said that being next to this man, this alleged
39:57
Speaker 1: extraterrestrial hitchhiker, he fell this really weird, strange calmness, and
40:03
Speaker 1: that at the time of this encounter, everything the man
40:08
Speaker 1: said sounded quote rationable and reasonable. It's a really weird
40:14
Speaker 1: case and Jan Harzen is perfectly aware of this. As
40:18
Speaker 1: Jan Harzen wrote about this case, he says, I know,
40:22
Speaker 1: I know, sounds crazy, but it would be even crazier
40:27
Speaker 1: not to get to the facts. And we'll see where
40:30
Speaker 1: this one goes. Unfortunately, there is no further information on
40:35
Speaker 1: this case, but it does fit in with these other
40:39
Speaker 1: cases of extraterrestrial hitchhikers. Not a lot of details to
40:43
Speaker 1: that case. Some cases have more details than others. Here's
40:47
Speaker 1: a case that which does have considerable detail. This occurred
40:52
Speaker 1: in the town outside of the town of Nieshor. This
40:56
Speaker 1: is in Crimea, Ukraine, and this occurred on July twenty fifth,
41:02
Speaker 1: two thousand and one, to a young lady by the
41:06
Speaker 1: name of Irena and her father. It was on the
41:10
Speaker 1: evening of July twenty five, two thousand and one, when
41:14
Speaker 1: Irena and her father were driving near the town of
41:17
Speaker 1: Mieshore again. This is along the southern coast of Crimea
41:21
Speaker 1: in Ukraine. They had just stopped to pick up some
41:25
Speaker 1: food and water when they saw what they described as
41:28
Speaker 1: a handsome young man hitchhiking along the highway, and in fact,
41:34
Speaker 1: Irena in particular found herself absolutely mesmerized by this gentleman's
41:39
Speaker 1: perfectly proportioned features. She described as being tall, blonde haired,
41:46
Speaker 1: and very attractive, and she began to beg her father
41:49
Speaker 1: to give this hitchhiker a ride, and for whatever reason,
41:54
Speaker 1: her father agreed. They pulled over and this man got
41:58
Speaker 1: in the car and sat in the back seat. And
42:01
Speaker 1: as they started to drive off, they saw that this
42:05
Speaker 1: man was behaving strangely. First he held this strange box
42:11
Speaker 1: shaped box shaped device in his hands, and then he
42:15
Speaker 1: began to mumble unintelligibly to himself, almost as if he
42:19
Speaker 1: was speaking a different language. So here he is. He
42:24
Speaker 1: has a strange appearance, he's got this weird box device,
42:27
Speaker 1: he's talking this strange language. This freaked IRENA's father out
42:32
Speaker 1: and he immediately pulled over and told the man to
42:35
Speaker 1: get out. Well, the man did not comply. Instead of
42:39
Speaker 1: exiting the car, he grabbed IRENA's hair, pulled her head back,
42:45
Speaker 1: and pressed this box like device against her back. And
42:51
Speaker 1: at this moment both Irena and her father says that
42:55
Speaker 1: they became paralyzed, weak and dazed. They could not control themselves.
43:01
Speaker 1: At this point, the hitchhiker exited the car, sat down
43:06
Speaker 1: on a log, and began to speak into this black box.
43:11
Speaker 1: Both Irena and her father said that they were fearful.
43:14
Speaker 1: They wanted to leave, but were still unable to move.
43:18
Speaker 1: The man then returned to the car, which now began
43:21
Speaker 1: to move by itself. So again here we see a
43:25
Speaker 1: car being controlled beyond the control of the people who
43:30
Speaker 1: are supposed to be driving it. At this point, Irena
43:33
Speaker 1: and her father both noticed a white glowing light surrounding
43:37
Speaker 1: their car, and after traveling along the highway for a
43:41
Speaker 1: short distance, their car stopped by itself near an abandoned
43:46
Speaker 1: gas station. The hitchhiker again exited the car and began
43:51
Speaker 1: collecting plant samples from the ground. Very strange, again typical
43:57
Speaker 1: et behavior. He then approach the car and, speaking in Russian,
44:03
Speaker 1: said thank you. The man then disappeared into a beam
44:08
Speaker 1: of light which turned green as it arked over the
44:11
Speaker 1: front of their vehicle, and both Irena and her father
44:15
Speaker 1: promptly lost consciousness. They woke up the next morning. And
44:21
Speaker 1: here's another very strange detail. Following this encounter, Irena noticed
44:28
Speaker 1: this very strange after effect. Her eyes, which had been
44:34
Speaker 1: brown since birth, were now green in color. And I
44:40
Speaker 1: know how that must sound, but I actually do have
44:43
Speaker 1: another case just like that where someone's eye color changed
44:47
Speaker 1: following an encounter. I think you'll agree, like all these
44:51
Speaker 1: other cases, that one is quite unusual. But of all
44:54
Speaker 1: the cases I found, I think this one is probably
44:58
Speaker 1: the most unusual because the gentleman that this driver picked
45:02
Speaker 1: up was clearly not human. This case occurred outside of Limera.
45:09
Speaker 1: This is in Sau Paolo, Brazil. That occurred on June twelve,
45:14
Speaker 1: two thousand three, and the main witness is a gentleman
45:18
Speaker 1: by the name of mister Zilnerman. This very bizarre encounter
45:23
Speaker 1: again occurred on June twelfth, two thousand and three, outside
45:26
Speaker 1: of Lymera in Sao Paolo, Brazil. Was very early in
45:31
Speaker 1: the morning, six twenty a m. When mister Zilmerman had
45:36
Speaker 1: left home to go to his place of employment. He
45:40
Speaker 1: had just passed through the toll gate on the highway
45:43
Speaker 1: when he saw a strange looking figure hitchhiking alongside the road.
45:49
Speaker 1: He knew it was risky to pick up random strangers,
45:52
Speaker 1: but as happens in other cases of this kind, he
45:55
Speaker 1: found himself compelled to stop the car and pick this
45:59
Speaker 1: figure up. By the way, this case is covered in
46:04
Speaker 1: the book Ets in Brazil by researcher author Antonio Falero.
46:12
Speaker 1: So moving along with the story, this figure approached the
46:15
Speaker 1: car and Zimmerman surprised himself by rolling down his window,
46:20
Speaker 1: and he could now see that this figure had large
46:23
Speaker 1: sort of cat like eyes, a very small nose, a
46:27
Speaker 1: bald head, and he was exuding this strange, powerful odor.
46:34
Speaker 1: And this stranger, this hitchhiker pointed towards the city of
46:38
Speaker 1: Parasicaba ahead of them on the road, and then entered
46:41
Speaker 1: the car. Mister Zilmerman at this point was nearly overcome
46:46
Speaker 1: by the strange odor of this man and looked at
46:49
Speaker 1: him to examine him more closely, and saw that this
46:52
Speaker 1: man was quite short, about five feet tall, had a
46:56
Speaker 1: very pale complexion, sort of an oily complex, and wore
47:01
Speaker 1: a strange tight fitting outfit with strange thick soled shoes.
47:07
Speaker 1: So again we see these figures have a strange appearance
47:10
Speaker 1: and are dressed strangely. So mister Zilmerman asks this figure
47:16
Speaker 1: where you want to go, and the hitchhiker remained silent
47:20
Speaker 1: but pointed ahead on the highway. Mister Zilmerman asked him,
47:25
Speaker 1: what is your name? And again this figure didn't answer.
47:30
Speaker 1: But at this point mister Zilmerman could see that this
47:33
Speaker 1: man's eyes appeared to turn really dark black, and this
47:39
Speaker 1: really frightened him. He continued down the highway he felt
47:42
Speaker 1: compelled to, and this is when the man began emitting loud,
47:47
Speaker 1: croaking noises so very similar in some ways to what
47:52
Speaker 1: Irena described. And at this point mister Zilmerman looked at
47:56
Speaker 1: this figure more closely and noticed other odd details. This
48:02
Speaker 1: man's hands had six fingers and they were tipped with
48:06
Speaker 1: black pointed, almost clawlike fingernails, and getting a closer look
48:12
Speaker 1: at the man's complexion, he saw that it was slick
48:14
Speaker 1: and almost oily in appearance. He tried again to talk
48:19
Speaker 1: to this figure, but the hitchhiker remained totally silent, and
48:23
Speaker 1: after each question that mister Zilmerman asked, this man's eyes
48:28
Speaker 1: would flash This dark black color. Finally, they reached the
48:33
Speaker 1: outskirts of the town of Perasikaba, and this is when
48:37
Speaker 1: mister Zilmerman felt compelled to stop the car. This strange
48:42
Speaker 1: figure exited the vehicle, actually smiled at mister Zilmerman, crossed
48:48
Speaker 1: the road in front of him and disappeared into the bushes.
48:52
Speaker 1: There's nothing around here, so it was not clear where
48:55
Speaker 1: this figure was going to go. Mister Zilmerman drove off,
49:00
Speaker 1: and he said the only other effect from the encounter,
49:02
Speaker 1: other than being absolutely puzzled by it, was a severe
49:07
Speaker 1: headache moving along. Here's yet another case. I'm telling you,
49:12
Speaker 1: there's a lot of cases like this. There must be
49:14
Speaker 1: something to this. This next case occurred near Salisbury, Virginia.
49:20
Speaker 1: The main witness is anonymous, but goes by the initials
49:25
Speaker 1: O B. And this occurred into two thousand and four.
49:30
Speaker 1: So this case does involve a gentleman who's anonymous. As
49:33
Speaker 1: I said, his initials are O B. And it occurred
49:36
Speaker 1: near Salisbury, Virginia around two thousand and four, when mister
49:41
Speaker 1: Ob saw a man alongside the highway wearing a thin
49:46
Speaker 1: top coat. Now this was a freezing cold day and
49:51
Speaker 1: Ob was concerned, so he stopped to give the man
49:54
Speaker 1: a ride, and the man got in the car, and
49:58
Speaker 1: O B saw that this man was quite young, had
50:02
Speaker 1: blonde hair. He immediately climbed into the car and said
50:07
Speaker 1: that the van the inside of the car was uncomfortably hot,
50:11
Speaker 1: and complained about it several times. So OB suggested that
50:15
Speaker 1: the man go ahead and remove his coat, which the
50:19
Speaker 1: man did, and this is when OB got a shock
50:22
Speaker 1: because the man had nothing on under his coat. He
50:27
Speaker 1: was nude. This shocked Ob, and he asked the man
50:31
Speaker 1: where he was from, and the man replied, in kind
50:34
Speaker 1: of a strange manner, I'm from Venice. And OB wasn't
50:39
Speaker 1: sure he heard this correctly and asked Venice, California, and
50:43
Speaker 1: the man replied, yeah, California. So OB thought that was
50:49
Speaker 1: curious because the man had a strange tone to his
50:52
Speaker 1: voice that he said was difficult to describe. But the
50:55
Speaker 1: man did have a message for Ob, and he began
50:58
Speaker 1: talking about how Earth's governments were taking the sides of
51:02
Speaker 1: corporations instead of the common people, and this was purposeful
51:08
Speaker 1: with the intention of causing a financial collapse. He talked
51:13
Speaker 1: quite a bit about this sort of thing, made several
51:16
Speaker 1: other political predictions. But O. B. Was more puzzled by
51:22
Speaker 1: this man's strange behavior, speech, and appearance, and he kept
51:28
Speaker 1: staring at him and looking at him, because, he says,
51:31
Speaker 1: this man's face was oddly different than a normal human.
51:35
Speaker 1: He had abnormally large, bright blue eyes and very long,
51:41
Speaker 1: very thin, blonde hair, and it was at this point
51:44
Speaker 1: that he wondered if this man was in fact an
51:47
Speaker 1: extraterrestrial or some kind of supernatural creature. So at some
51:55
Speaker 1: point he pulled the car over. The man exited the
51:58
Speaker 1: vehicle and warned the witness not to tell anyone what
52:03
Speaker 1: he had been told. Now, the witness says he dropped
52:07
Speaker 1: this man off on fair Ground Road outside of Salisbury, Virginia,
52:14
Speaker 1: And an interesting end note to this case, he later
52:17
Speaker 1: heard that a couple claimed that they had actually been
52:20
Speaker 1: abducted into a UFO on that very road. O V.
52:26
Speaker 1: Says he never saw any UFO, but to this day
52:29
Speaker 1: he wonders if he encountered an alien hitchhiker. And he
52:33
Speaker 1: says that on another occasion, he was driving with his
52:36
Speaker 1: wife along this same stretch of road and saw what
52:39
Speaker 1: appeared to be the same figure in the same exact
52:42
Speaker 1: place he had seen him before. The only difference was
52:46
Speaker 1: that instead of wearing a thin top coat, this strange
52:50
Speaker 1: man was wearing a silvery white jumpsuit. And remembering his
52:56
Speaker 1: earlier encounter with this very strange hitchhiker, he didn't stop
53:01
Speaker 1: this time and just drove by the man. Yeah, truly
53:05
Speaker 1: a bizarre case. I love this next case. This case
53:10
Speaker 1: is undated, so I don't know when it exactly happened,
53:14
Speaker 1: but it involves a Native American gentleman by the name
53:18
Speaker 1: of Dakota, and this again occurred in the state of Arizona.
53:23
Speaker 1: It's a really interesting case. This next case comes from
53:28
Speaker 1: Arty six Killer Clark, and again involves a Native American
53:32
Speaker 1: gentleman by the name of Dakota, who one evening was
53:36
Speaker 1: driving along State Highway one ninety one between Window Rock
53:42
Speaker 1: and Chinley, Arizona. This is a remote desert area and
53:48
Speaker 1: this is not a long drive. It normally takes about
53:50
Speaker 1: one hour. It was around midnight when Dakota came upon
53:54
Speaker 1: a man standing alongside the road, and he first thought
53:57
Speaker 1: it was another Native American, which was not unusual, and
54:02
Speaker 1: as he usually does when he sees a fellow Indian
54:04
Speaker 1: walking along the highway, Dakota stopped to give the man
54:07
Speaker 1: a ride, and, as Dakota says in his own words,
54:12
Speaker 1: at the time, I didn't know he was an alien,
54:16
Speaker 1: That's what I think he was. But I thought he
54:18
Speaker 1: was an Indian when I picked him up. Very quickly, however,
54:22
Speaker 1: Dakota realized his mistake. As Dakota says, when he got
54:29
Speaker 1: into the car, I noticed he was not dressed like
54:31
Speaker 1: an Indian. Indians around here wear jeans, denim jackets, neither
54:37
Speaker 1: a T shirt or a shirt. It was a cold night,
54:40
Speaker 1: it was snowing, and he wasn't wearing a jacket. He
54:44
Speaker 1: was wearing something like coveralls. But it was a strange material.
54:48
Speaker 1: It seemed to glow in the lights of the dashboard,
54:51
Speaker 1: and when I asked him where he was headed, he
54:54
Speaker 1: pointed a head without saying a word. So here we
54:58
Speaker 1: see this pattern again, a strange looking figure, wearing strange clothes,
55:03
Speaker 1: acting strangely. Dakota thought this was strange, but wondered if
55:08
Speaker 1: perhaps the man was Navajo, who are sometimes more private
55:12
Speaker 1: than the people of his own tribe. So he continued
55:15
Speaker 1: driving until coming over a small hill, at which point
55:18
Speaker 1: he came upon a blinding light ahead of him. He
55:21
Speaker 1: thought it might be a semi truck, and without warning,
55:25
Speaker 1: Dakota's car engine failed. He was trying to restart it
55:30
Speaker 1: when the hitchhiker exited the vehicle and walked into the
55:34
Speaker 1: brilliant light ahead of them on the road. Moments later,
55:38
Speaker 1: the hitchhiker returned with another man and told Dakota to
55:42
Speaker 1: go with them. As Dakota says, at first, I thought
55:46
Speaker 1: it was a joke, but then I felt like I
55:48
Speaker 1: had no choice. Not only that, I felt like I
55:52
Speaker 1: had no will. So Dakota became worried about his car
55:56
Speaker 1: parked in the middle of the highway, but these men
55:59
Speaker 1: told him it would be all right, And the next
56:01
Speaker 1: thing he knew, they walked into this light, which turned
56:04
Speaker 1: out to be a spacecraft. A UFO landed on the
56:08
Speaker 1: center of the highway, and on board this craft, Dakota
56:12
Speaker 1: saw many other Native Americans. He tried to speak with them,
56:16
Speaker 1: in fact, but all of them, he said, seemed to
56:20
Speaker 1: be dazed, almost entranced. Dakota examined the men who had
56:25
Speaker 1: taken him on board, and as Dakota says, they were
56:30
Speaker 1: about as tall as me, but much slimmer. They wore
56:34
Speaker 1: a type of jumpsuit with a silver triangle on the chest.
56:38
Speaker 1: They looked like humans, but they were fairer. I remember
56:41
Speaker 1: seeing their hand against my skin. Their fingers were so
56:45
Speaker 1: long and white. Dakota said he was taken from the
56:49
Speaker 1: room with the other Indians to another room and then
56:51
Speaker 1: was left alone. He became frightened and exam exited the room,
56:57
Speaker 1: running down the corridor trying to escape, which point he
57:00
Speaker 1: did become paralyzed. As Dakota says, I remember thinking I
57:06
Speaker 1: am stronger than these guys because they were so slight
57:09
Speaker 1: of build. But I was wrong. They rendered me helpless,
57:13
Speaker 1: and after that, I don't know what happened. The next
57:15
Speaker 1: thing I remember is being back in my car. So
57:20
Speaker 1: back in his car, he started up the engine and
57:22
Speaker 1: drove into town. And this drive, which should have taken
57:25
Speaker 1: one hour, actually took four hours. Dakota says. The next morning,
57:30
Speaker 1: his body felt very sore, but worse than that, he
57:34
Speaker 1: was more emotionally shaken than physically, and as Dakota says,
57:40
Speaker 1: I believe I picked up an alien along the side
57:43
Speaker 1: of the road, thinking I was picking up a Navajo.
57:47
Speaker 1: But it taught me one thing. I am more careful
57:50
Speaker 1: about picking up strangers and following this, Dakota was picked
57:55
Speaker 1: up at least twice after this, and he says each
57:58
Speaker 1: encounter lasted about four hours. I love that case. It's
58:03
Speaker 1: clearly not involving a human being. I'm telling you there
58:09
Speaker 1: are extraterrestrials thumbing rides along highways across the United States
58:14
Speaker 1: and the world. And here's another case from Arty six
58:18
Speaker 1: Killer Clark. I love her as a researcher. She's introducing
58:23
Speaker 1: some really interesting cases, I think. And this next one
58:27
Speaker 1: occurred outside of Guatemala City. It involves three brothers and
58:33
Speaker 1: their cousin. And again this case is not dated, so
58:37
Speaker 1: I don't know when it occurred. But yeah, once we
58:42
Speaker 1: get into the details of this one, you'll see that
58:45
Speaker 1: this is a whopper. I mean, this is a really
58:48
Speaker 1: unusual case. The three brothers in this case go by
58:51
Speaker 1: the names Alicia, Javier, and Jose, and their cousin is
58:57
Speaker 1: named Miguel. And again, this curd occurred in Guatemala City
59:03
Speaker 1: in Guatemala, and they had just attended the wedding reception
59:08
Speaker 1: of their sister. Afterwards, they loaded up their van with
59:13
Speaker 1: the chairs and tables that had been borrowed and needed
59:16
Speaker 1: to be returned to their owner. The wedding reception was over,
59:21
Speaker 1: nearly all the guests had already left, and as the
59:24
Speaker 1: four men were preparing to leave, they were approached by
59:28
Speaker 1: a young man who asked him for a ride. Now
59:31
Speaker 1: this looked like a normal person. He was tall, slender,
59:35
Speaker 1: dressed in jeans, a white shirt, and a cowboy hat
59:39
Speaker 1: that was pulled low over his eyes, and they all
59:42
Speaker 1: thought that he was perhaps a friend of the bridegroom,
59:46
Speaker 1: and they agreed to give him a ride. So they
59:49
Speaker 1: all climbed into the van and headed down the road
59:53
Speaker 1: Jose was driving, and as Jose says, instead of following
59:58
Speaker 1: the main highway, I took a service road that led
1:00:02
Speaker 1: around the city. It was strange because I had never
1:00:05
Speaker 1: taken that road, and yet I felt compelled to choose
1:00:08
Speaker 1: that road. That's the same thing that happened in other cases.
1:00:12
Speaker 1: So here's this weird pattern turning up again. And as
1:00:16
Speaker 1: they drove out of town, one of the front tires
1:00:18
Speaker 1: became flat. I wonder about this too. They pulled over
1:00:23
Speaker 1: not far from a textile factory and proceeded to change
1:00:26
Speaker 1: the tire, and this is when they all noticed that
1:00:29
Speaker 1: the factory lights were out, which was very strange because
1:00:33
Speaker 1: they were always lit. They had almost finished changing the
1:00:37
Speaker 1: tire when they noticed two strange things. One was a
1:00:42
Speaker 1: their mysterious hitchhiker had inexplicably disappeared, and another vehicle appeared
1:00:49
Speaker 1: about a half mile ahead of them. And then another
1:00:53
Speaker 1: brilliant light appeared behind them over the factory parking lot.
1:00:58
Speaker 1: And this is when they realized it was in fact Aufo.
1:01:02
Speaker 1: The four men became frightened and piled into the car.
1:01:06
Speaker 1: They tried to race away. Not surprisingly, the car engine
1:01:10
Speaker 1: would not start, so they tried to exit the car,
1:01:14
Speaker 1: but all four men said that they became paralyzed, unable
1:01:18
Speaker 1: to move, and Eliseo, the oldest brother, describes what happened
1:01:24
Speaker 1: next as Aliso says, that's when the hitchhiker reappeared. He
1:01:30
Speaker 1: was no longer dressed like the four of us. He
1:01:33
Speaker 1: was wearing a white one piece suit. But the strangest
1:01:37
Speaker 1: thing of all, he was still wearing the cowboy hat.
1:01:41
Speaker 1: He opened the door and climbed into the passenger's seat.
1:01:44
Speaker 1: He told us not to fear. He closed the door,
1:01:47
Speaker 1: and then the van began to move toward the craft.
1:01:51
Speaker 1: A bright light fell on the road in front of us.
1:01:54
Speaker 1: And I felt the van move upward all the time
1:01:58
Speaker 1: the stranger is saying that we should not be afraid.
1:02:02
Speaker 1: The next thing that happens is the men found themselves
1:02:05
Speaker 1: on board the craft, which they said was brightly lit. Inside,
1:02:10
Speaker 1: humanoid figures with light colored brown hair and big, round,
1:02:15
Speaker 1: bright blue eyes surrounded them, placed them into a room
1:02:20
Speaker 1: and began to take blood samples. That's all they really remembered. Actually,
1:02:26
Speaker 1: they didn't remember that, because the next thing the brothers
1:02:30
Speaker 1: knew it was morning and they were back in the van.
1:02:34
Speaker 1: Elicio woke first and had no idea what had happened.
1:02:39
Speaker 1: He couldn't recognize his brothers. He had no idea where
1:02:43
Speaker 1: he was or even his own name, who he himself was.
1:02:48
Speaker 1: Jose and Miguel lay unconscious in the back of the van,
1:02:52
Speaker 1: and Javier lay unconscious on the ground outside. So this
1:02:59
Speaker 1: was quite unnerving to them, very concerning. They were very
1:03:04
Speaker 1: much dazed, very confused. Elisle tried to flag down a
1:03:09
Speaker 1: driver for help, but the driver of the car fled,
1:03:13
Speaker 1: and shortly later the police arrived. So apparently he called
1:03:16
Speaker 1: the police and brought them all to the police station.
1:03:20
Speaker 1: All of the men had profound amnesia. Only after a
1:03:24
Speaker 1: few days did they remember who they were and what
1:03:27
Speaker 1: had happened. As Javier says, we were on board a
1:03:32
Speaker 1: UFO and we were led there by the hitchhiker. The
1:03:37
Speaker 1: three brothers all agree on the basic details of their
1:03:40
Speaker 1: on board experience. Jose was the first to remember that
1:03:44
Speaker 1: they had been taken on board, but he actually had
1:03:47
Speaker 1: the least recall of the three of them, and was
1:03:50
Speaker 1: really their cousin Miguel who remembered the most detail. He
1:03:55
Speaker 1: said that after they had been taken to a room
1:03:57
Speaker 1: and had blood samples taken, they were all separated and
1:04:01
Speaker 1: brought to different rooms. Miguel remembers being undressed and physically examined,
1:04:07
Speaker 1: and following this encounter, he actually slept for three days
1:04:11
Speaker 1: straight and when he awoke his memory slowly returned. He
1:04:16
Speaker 1: did find a strange round mark on the left side
1:04:19
Speaker 1: of his torso that hadn't been there before his encounter,
1:04:23
Speaker 1: and for him this was further evidence that their encounter
1:04:27
Speaker 1: was entirely real. So again, this case comes from researcher
1:04:33
Speaker 1: Artie six Killer Clark, and as she says, and I quote,
1:04:38
Speaker 1: I have repeatedly been told about the paralysis that accompanied
1:04:42
Speaker 1: an abduction. It was only the third time, however, that
1:04:47
Speaker 1: a hitchhiker was involved who was actually an alien. It
1:04:51
Speaker 1: makes me wonder if this practice is more common than
1:04:54
Speaker 1: we know. I never pass a hitchhiker without thinking of Eliseo, Jose, Javier,
1:05:02
Speaker 1: and Miguel, even if I attempted to stop, I drive on.
1:05:07
Speaker 1: Those are pretty much all the cases I found. There
1:05:10
Speaker 1: is one more case I would like to cover. I'm
1:05:14
Speaker 1: really not sure what to make of this one. This
1:05:17
Speaker 1: occurred in Corsicana, Texas along the Corsicana Highway. It was
1:05:23
Speaker 1: reported to move on by an anonymous truck driver. This
1:05:28
Speaker 1: actually was featured on a few paranormal reality TV shows.
1:05:33
Speaker 1: And what's interesting about this case is it involves an
1:05:36
Speaker 1: actual photograph of this alleged et thumbing a ride along
1:05:42
Speaker 1: the Corsicana Highway. You can make up your own mind
1:05:46
Speaker 1: about it, but here's the case. So again. It was
1:05:49
Speaker 1: August one, twenty eighteen, when this anonymous truck driver was
1:05:52
Speaker 1: driving along the Corsicana Highway in Corsicana, Texas one afternoon
1:05:58
Speaker 1: when he says he saw a stray figure standing alongside
1:06:02
Speaker 1: the highway and in his report to move on. The
1:06:06
Speaker 1: truck driver writes, and I quote witnessed person walking dressed strangely.
1:06:13
Speaker 1: When I passed and looked at my mirror, it was gone.
1:06:18
Speaker 1: What makes this case interesting is that the driver had
1:06:21
Speaker 1: a dash cam video playing at the time and was
1:06:24
Speaker 1: able to capture several seconds of footage as he drove
1:06:27
Speaker 1: by this figure. And this video has gone viral on
1:06:31
Speaker 1: the internet. You could probably find it, and it does
1:06:35
Speaker 1: show what appears to be a greenish gray humanoid figure
1:06:40
Speaker 1: with its face turned towards oncoming traffic and its arms extended,
1:06:45
Speaker 1: almost as if thumbing a ride. This did appear on
1:06:49
Speaker 1: the Travel Channel series Beyond the Unknown with host Don Wildman,
1:06:55
Speaker 1: was featured in season two, but it does not appear
1:06:58
Speaker 1: to have been the product of an official investigation. Nevertheless,
1:07:03
Speaker 1: this video is somewhat intriguing, and I will say that
1:07:07
Speaker 1: this case does fit the pattern we have seen in
1:07:10
Speaker 1: other cases. So those are all the cases I could find,
1:07:14
Speaker 1: and that's quite a bit. I suspect there are more
1:07:17
Speaker 1: out there. I did cover these cases in my book
1:07:20
Speaker 1: Not From Here, Volume four, which again is all about
1:07:24
Speaker 1: the really unusual types of UFO cases. And you can't
1:07:28
Speaker 1: deny cases of extraterrestrial hitchhikers are really unusual, very much
1:07:35
Speaker 1: like the vanishing hitchhiker syndrome, only involving apparent extraterrestrials. Really cool.
1:07:42
Speaker 1: It kind of reminds me of that book by Douglas Adams,
1:07:46
Speaker 1: the science fiction novel called Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe.
1:07:51
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think this is a good thing to
1:07:53
Speaker 1: keep in mind if you're driving along the highway and
1:07:56
Speaker 1: you see someone dressed up in a silver suit, someone
1:08:00
Speaker 1: with big staring eyes and no hair and a huge
1:08:03
Speaker 1: head thumbing a ride. I don't know how many cases
1:08:09
Speaker 1: there are like this, but the twelve or thirteen I
1:08:13
Speaker 1: present here I do believe are just the tip of
1:08:17
Speaker 1: the iceberg, because if this happened to you, would you
1:08:20
Speaker 1: tell someone something to be aware of in case you're
1:08:24
Speaker 1: driving along and you see somebody looking very unusual. So
1:08:30
Speaker 1: that's the show for today. I hope you've enjoyed it.
1:08:34
Speaker 1: It's definitely an unusual one. I want to thank you
1:08:37
Speaker 1: very much for watching. I truly appreciate it. Until next time,
1:08:41
Speaker 1: keep searching for answers, keep asking questions, and most importantly,
1:08:46
Speaker 1: keep having fun. By now,
