It Doesn't Get Any Weirder Than This! Ten Extremely Bizarre Close Encounters of the Second Kind · UFOS & PARANORMAL WITH PRESTON DENNETT

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Hello everyone. My name is Preston Dennett, and thank you
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: for joining me for a new episode of UFOs and
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: the Paranormal. I'm going to be doing something a little
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: bit different. I've only covered these kinds of cases a
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: few times. We're talking about close encounters of the second kind.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: The title of today's episode is it doesn't get any
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: weirder than this, ten extremely bizarre close encounters of the
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: second kind. Yeah, it probably can get weirder than this,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: but trust me, these cases are very weird. Just so
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: you know, a close encounter of the second kind is
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: one that affects the witness or the environment in some way.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: So almost all of these cases involve landing traces, physiological reactions,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: electromagnetic disturbances, animal effects, these kinds of things. Over half
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: of them are multiple witness cases as well, so very
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: well verified cases. Here. I will be covering ten locations,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: ten different cases, and these locations include Argentina, two from Argentina, actually,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: one from Australia, one from Chile, two from Colombia, and
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: the rest are in the United States, including Illinois, Massachusetts,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: New Hampshire, and Ohio. By pure chance, these cases are
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: clustered together in time from nineteen seventy six to nineteen
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: eighty two. I guess it was just a very active
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: era of UFO activity. But I am sure you will
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: find these cases absolutely compelling, fascinating, and that they have
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: a lot to teach us about how UFOs can affect
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: the witness and the environment. So let's get started. First
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: case I want to talk about is so amazing, so encouraging.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: It's just really a delightful case. I call this one
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: something unimaginable, and I think that's an accurate term which
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: the witness actually used because you could never have imagined
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: something like this happening. This occurred in nineteen seventy six
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: in Tolma, Colombia, and wow, this is so amazing. This
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: incredibly bizarre and fascinating case comes from respected Spanish researcher
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Salvador Fruscado. It is a multiple witness case. He was
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: able to interview one of the primary witnesses, who, as
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: it turns out, is a very famous journalist. Her name
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: is Inez de Montana. She's very well known for her
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: contributions to the Bogaton newspaper El Aspectador, which means the Spectator.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: She was really a pioneer of female journalism in Colombia.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: At the time of the event, Inez lived with her
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: family and friends in her ancestors hacienda in an area
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: called Honda. This is located in Tolema, Columbia. This is
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: a four thousand foot high valley surrounded by much higher
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: mountains of the Columbian Andes. Was early one morning in
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: nineteen seventy six, before the sun had risen, that Inez
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: and other members of the household awoke to find the
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: air filled with smoke. Rushing outside. They were alarmed and
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: frightened to see the glow of a huge wildfire advancing
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: towards their home. Soon they could see that trees and
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: crops were already a flame, and the fire was advancing quickly.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: The farm hands began running around frantically searching for axes
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: to create a fire break, as there was no water
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: to really extinguish the flames. The fire, however, was moving
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: very swiftly, and in the space of just a few minutes,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: they saw enormous flames cresting over the adjacent hill sending
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: thick clouds of smoke into the sky. The farm hands
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: did their best, but it was clear to everyone that
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: their efforts were going to be insufficient to stop the
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: fire from spreading. Already, they were retreating from the advancing
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: flames as the heat was far too much for them
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: to stand. The dried leaves and brush provided a lot
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: of fuel for this fire, and everyone was frightened that
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: the old hacienda house, which was made of wood and
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: had been there for a very long time, would go
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: up in flames and be destroyed in a matter of minutes.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: And it appeared as if all would be lost. When
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: something incredible happened, as Inez says in her own words, suddenly,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: something unimaginable appeared from the west. It was like a
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: helicopter of light. It came slowly, and its brilliance wasn't
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: like a diamond's, but rather had bluish hues, and you
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: could gaze at it intently. My whole being became eyes
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: gazing at it. Ines's friend jo Jovita shouted out, missus Ennsita, look, look,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: Inez replied, I'm watching. That was all she could say.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Now it was obvious to everyone that this was a UFO.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: It wasn't anything normal. Driven by anguish and desperation, Inez's
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: friend Jovita raised her arms to the sky and shouted out,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Martian gentlemen, help us. This land of missus Ennecita cannot
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: be burned. Save the little animals. They are blessed. Now,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Inez and the others could hardly believe what happened next,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: as Inez says, I heard their pleas as if they
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: came from afar. Well, that thing, I don't know what
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: to call it, advanced out, shining the stars in that
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: summer sky. I had the impression that it was going
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: to land on us, But at the height of the
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: coconut palms, it rose again. It moved away, slowly, leaving
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: a luminous trail like the tail of a common that
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: moved harmoniously, as if to the rhythm of a strauss waltz.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Now the temperature around them was now already over one
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: hundred degrees from this fire, and everyone there watched an
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: absolute astonishment as the UFO unleashed an intense blast of
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: ice cold air. The cold air almost instantly extinguished the
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: roaring wildfire around the estate, and in fact, it was
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: so cold that everyone began to shiver from the cold.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Yez herself ran inside and grabbed a coat to keep warm,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: then ran back outside to watch the flames rapidly subside.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: The UFO paused for a few seconds over the now
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: dying flames, and then began to move slowly across the
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: entire front of the fire, and wherever it moved, the
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: flames died down, as if being drenched with tons of water. Now,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: many of the farm hands at this point were on
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: the other side of the house trying to contain the fire,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: and they didn't see the UFO, but they did feel
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: sudden rush of cold air, and one of them, Luis, said,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: it was really cold, with such a mild cold that
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: it put out the flames. All I could do was
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: roll down my shirt sleeves. So in a matter of minutes,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: the sixty foot high flames had been reduced to nothing,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: leaving only smoking ground. And as Yez says, the above
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: is my truth, supported by the testimony of four people
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: who felt with me the effect of a strange phenomenon,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: and because in more than thirty years, no one has
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: been able to say that in the hundreds of pages
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I have written, there has been fantasy, fiction or lies.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Since then, when I close my eyes to remember, I
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: see it again as something I never suspected or dreamed
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: of in my life. How crazy is that a UFO
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: that puts out a wildfire fire fighting extraterrestrials. It's not
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: a unique case. Actually, I do know of a few
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: other cases, but this one is probably the most dramatic
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: that I've heard. I wonder about it. It's a multiple
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: witness case, it's pretty well verified. In fact, the main
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: witness being a famous journalist. I think she's a very
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: high credibility and I wonder if perhaps that was why
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: the UFOs came down to save their house, because she
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: was a very influential person in Colombia at that time.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Don't know, hard to say, but an absolutely fascinating case
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: either way. Now let's move to another one. Every time
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: you think you've heard everything, another case comes along that
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: makes you go, wow, never heard this before. I call
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: this one this was the end. This occurred on May five,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: nineteen seventy seven, in Bogata, Colombia. It's technically a single
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: witness case involving a very unusual physiological reaction. Most common
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: physiological reaction is that a person's eyesight is affected in
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: some way, perhaps redness or irritation, but in this case,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: it was very extreme. This has got to be one
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: of the most harrowing encounters on record, certainly for the
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: single eyewitness, a twenty two year old student pilot by
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: the name of Manuel Jose Lopez o Jeida. At the
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: time of the incident, he had less than forty hours
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: of flying time, so he's definitely an amateur pilot. Was
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: at nine point fifteen a m on May five, nineteen
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: seventy seven that Manuel took off from Bogataw, Columbia and
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: began a solo training flight in his one hundred horsepower
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Cessna one point fifty. Soon he was flying above the
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: eight thy five hundred foot high mountains above the town
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: of Tabio, this is north of Bogataw, and he was
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: practicing steep turns and dives when he suddenly noticed that
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: all the gauges on his instrument panel were malfunctioning or
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: reading z zo or in the danger zone, and also
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: the plane itself was making a strange shuddering vibrating motion.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: So he quickly realized he was in trouble and he
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: wisely decided to take immediate action. As Jose says, I
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: started looking for a field to make a forced landing,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: but when I started looking down on my right side
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: I saw a huge vehicle, a machine, a few feet
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: below me, and at times it would come right below
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: the aircraft. And when I tried to straighten the steep
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: turn in which I was in, I found the controls
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: of the aircraft would not obey. The whole aircraft seemed
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: to be locked onto this machine or being controlled by
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: somebody else. Was somewhat disconcerting. The aircraft was not responding
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: to my movements of the controls. It was at that
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: moment I began to feel a strong pressure in my
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: ears and head. My hands and body were itching. However,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I was very conscious of all all that I was
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: doing and seeing. This was all happening in just a
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: matter of seconds, since the UFO, which initially was on
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: the side of the aircraft, had moved down just below
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: the landing gear of the plane. Was at this time
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: that the situation got even worse for me, and the
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: plane I was flying was shaking with even greater intensity,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: and the controls were not working, and the instruments continued
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: to show zero, but the plane continued to fly in
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: a circle at the same altitude. So Jose said that
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: the craft looked like an inverted dish. He estimates It
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: was about fifty to sixty feet in diameter and about
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: ten feet thick. A reddish yellow light was located at
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: the top center. He said. It was snow white in color,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: aluminum metallic looking, with no windows, no markings of any kind.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: But he could see that this craft was moving in
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: quick zigzag movements beneath his plane. Now gradually, Hose started
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: to notice a very alarming development. His eyesight was starting
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: to fade. As Jose says, the UFO moved to the
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: front of the plane, and that was when I began
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: to lose my sight. Everything looked cloudy. For a moment,
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: it seemed I was recovering my visibility, but I was
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: thinking to myself that this was the end for me.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: It seemed as if I was flying over a desert
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: and mountainous zone, always in a circle. The strange object
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: disappeared and I was left blind. It was like being
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: in a fog. I couldn't distinguish any objects too far,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: so I asked for guidance to be able to return
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: to my base. Another aircraft approached my aircraft. By this time,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: my vision was lost completely. I couldn't see anything, not
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: the dashboard. I couldn't see outside my plane. So Jose
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: radioed the Bogata tower in a near panic, saying, I've
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: lost my sight. I don't know what to do. He
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: repeated that several times now. The tower supervisor at Bogataw,
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Pedro Pisa, was initially skeptical of Jose's report of another
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: aircraft because he saw nothing on their radar, but hearing
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: his calls for help, four flight instructors immediately took off
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: from Bogataw in separate planes. They did not see any
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: UFO either, but they did find Jose and they flew
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: up as close as they dared to his plane and
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: did their best to guide him home. In fact, this
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: conversation was recorded at the control tower at Bogataw and
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: it was being aired live, so there was a lot
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: of people listening to this. Here's a little snippet of
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: this conversation. The instructor, the one who's trying to save Jose, says, okay,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: now begins slowly the turn to the left, slowly, slowly, slowly,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Turn to the left. To the other side is the left, left, left,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: that's right. The left is the other side. To the
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: side by the door. Turn turn to your side by
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: the door. Do you hear me? Jose replied, I hear
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: you distinctly. So. Jose was clearly frightened and disoriented. It
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: took him a little bit to understand, and as the
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: instructor said, good, but turn to the left, not to
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: your right, but to the left. That's it. Turn more, yes,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: softly continued turning very softly, very softly. So for the
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: next hour or two, the instructors guided Jose towards the
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Bogatat Airport while doing their best to keep the frightened
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Jose from panicking. He was absolutely in fear. Finally, they
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: reached the airport, and it took them several attempts to
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: guide him to the runway because twice Jose almost flew
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: into the control tower. He still had no vision and
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: was in fact in such a bad condition, but he
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: admitted that he could not even remember his own name.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: But thankfully, Jose's sight started to return, and finally the
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: instructor flew directly in front of Jose's plane and he
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: was just barely able to see the shadow of the
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: plane in front of him and was able to make
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: a perfect landing. Men from the Bogata Airport immediately pulled
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: him from the plane. After he landed, he was placed
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: into an ambulance and was rushed to the hospital. Once
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: at the hospital, Jose's condition improved rapidly, and before long
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: his site was completely restored. Now, one of the witnesses
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: there at the time, pilot Rudolpho Faccini, was able to
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: determine that Jose was in fact an excellent student pilot
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: not given to hysteria. As Rudolph says, the guides a
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: serious type fellow. I spoke to his instructor and during
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: the few weeks he had been at the school, he
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: has shown to be a capable pilot. He is serious
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: and quiet and has not made an impression on anybody
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: as being a charlatan. His story has been somewhat reluctantly told,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: but it has been accepted. They believe that he did
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: encounter something or other on that morning of May fifth,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: and in confirmation of his encounter, reportedly UFOs had been
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: seen in that area less than one month earlier on
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: multiple occasions. Actually, my heart goes out to that pilot.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: That had to be very harrowing, very scary. Thankfully he
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: fully recovered. Not exactly sure what happened there, I speculate
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: that maybe he had hysterical blindness due to his own fear,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: but that's pure speculation. And the fact that so many
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: people do report their eyesight being affected in some way
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: following or even during a UFO encounter, well, clearly that
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: was what was going on there, truly an amazing encounter,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: and yet other activity going on around that time Lend's
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: additional credibility to his report. But certainly this did happen.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, he was hospitalized. Such an unusual case, and
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: now we go to another. I have never heard a
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: case like this before, not in the details that these
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: witnesses describe. Again multiple witnesses. I call this one UFO
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: spoils barbecue picnic. This occurred on August twenty second, nineteen
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: seventy eight, in the small town of Coronel Dorego, Argentina.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: This one is unusual and bizarre for sure. This case
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: comes directly from the Cronica newspaper of Buenos Aires, Argentina,
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: so I don't believe it's been officially investigated, but it
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: sure is interesting. On August twenty second, nineteen seventy eight,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: three people had gone hunting at a ranch in Aastancia
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: just outside of the Coronel Dorigo area of Buenos Aires
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: Province in Argentina. They began to cook some meat, which
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: they planned to enjoy with some bread and wine. But
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: around eight thirty PM, as they were just getting ready
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: to eat, they started to hear a strange noise. They
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: were unable to describe it or determine its source, but
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: around that same time they did notice a very strong
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: odor of sulfur, and now looking down at their food
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: the meat, they were shocked to see that the meat
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: that they were hoping to eat in moments had turned
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: a quote suspicious purple pink color. Not only that their
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: bread had taken on a very strange spongy texture. Both
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: appeared to them to be inedible. Not at first they
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: couldn't understand the cause, But as they looked around them,
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: only three hundred feet away, they saw a ufo hovering overhead.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: They described it as circular in shape, with a black center,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: white edges, and the whole thing was giving off a
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: bluish re Now they were so stunned that at first
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: they just stared at this object in shock. Finally they
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: came to their senses. They jumped into their car and
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: drove off to inform the owners of the estancia where
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: they had been hunting about this UFO. But at this
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: point the craft struck them with a beam of light.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: The next thing they know, they are facing another direction,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty feet away, on an adjacent road
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: which they could not have crossed without having driven over
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: an area of plowed land, which would have been very
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: difficult to do in their vehicle. And none of them
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: felt any of the bumps that they should have felt
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: if they had driven over the rough terrain. And in fact,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: as one of the witnesses said, it seemed as if
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: we went through the air. So now finding themselves in
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: this unfamiliar location, they stopped the car. Suddenly the beam
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: of light went out, the UFO was gone, and they
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: raced away from the location. So technically that as fall
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: under the category of a close encounter of the second kind,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: given that the witnesses do feel the presence of this
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: UFO affected their food in that very unusual way. Thought
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: a close analysis of the case, seeing that they suddenly
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: found themselves on another road, felt the car floating through
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: the air, that to me sounds like a close encounter
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: of the third or fourth kind. They were probably taken
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: on board just given that that they found themselves in
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: another location from where they began, So that sounds like
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: missing time. Would love to talk to those witnesses further
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: and get more information. There's a lot to unpack with
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: that case, but certainly qualifies as being extremely bizarre. All right, now,
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: let's move to this next case. This one is unique.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: I've never heard anything quite like this one before. It's
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: technically a single witness case, though there was a corroborating
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: witness who saw UFOs that era at that time, as
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: we'll see, but I call this one everything was enhanced.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: This occurred on September thirty, nineteen seventy eight, in a
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: very rural location known as Laguna l al Jebe, Maria, Teresa, Argentina.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: This man was driving alone on a dirt road out
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: in the middle of pretty much nowhere when he has
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: his encounter which would absolutely change his life. This next
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: case was also published in the Kronica newspaper of Argentina,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: and it was investigated and published in the Tribuna newspaper.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Was investigated by the CIC, the COSMO Biophysical Investigations of
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: the Argentine Federation of Research on extraterrestrial science. The sole
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: witness is Jose Marchisio, a fifty three year old married
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: man from the small town of Maria Teresa in Argentina.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: Was around eleven thirty pm on September twenty, nineteen seventy eight,
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: as Jose drove from the town of Santa Isabel to
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: the town of Maria Teresa, where he lived. This is
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: less than twenty miles away. Now, he decided to take
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: a short cut the dirt road between the two towns
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: rather than the main highway, and he had just reached
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: the section where the road borders a small lake known
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: as Laguna el al Jeeb, when about six hundred feet
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: ahead of him, seemingly sitting on the road itself, was
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: a large glowing red sphere. So he continued to drive closer,
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: thinking that this was another vehicle, but he could soon
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: see that there was a dark green object of some
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: kind behind the reddish sphere. Now, this globe seemed to
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: be slowly expanding in size. Still thinking it might be
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: another vehicle on the road, he signaled it with his headlights,
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: but he now realized that this looked a bit strange
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: to be another vehicle, so he pulled over to the
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: shoulder of the road. Now, at this point he felt
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: no fear. But then at that moment, the red sphere
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: seemed to explode, sending out rays of multicolored lights in
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: all directions. This point everything became very weird and bizarre.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Jose said he felt disoriented and inside the car, he
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: said it was filled with a strange sensation. As he says,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: everything was enhanced. The dashboard, the gages, and the steering
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: wheel were shining. At the same time, the size of
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: the objects, including myself, seemed bigger. In front of the
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: vehicle was a silver road, glistening like a carpet made
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: of cigarette paper, so meaning it's very shiny and reflective.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Now Jose realized that the car lights were now off,
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: and he seemed to be suspended in the air and
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: traveling at high speed. He was completely unable to control
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: the car. As Jose says, my hands and feet were
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: always still. Only I felt a heavy pressure in the
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: back of the neck and also on my breast. I
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: neither saw any people, nor saw any people or unknown beings.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: I always looked ahead of me. I think the car's
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: engine was not running. I could see the car and
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: myself enveloped in a very powerful light. I noticed the
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: smallest details inside the car, but very enlarged. Through the
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: rear view mirror, I could see my features enlarged. I
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: noticed a small scar on my hand in all its details. So,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: after an undetermined amount of time, the car seemed to
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: slow down. The strange glowing light and the other weird
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: effects suddenly stopped, and Jose found himself back on the road.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: It took him several moments to realize that he was
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: now seven kilometers four point three miles from where he
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: had first entered this light. Now he had no idea
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: how he got there. The road that circles the lake
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: has many corners, and he did not remember taking any
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: of them. And, as Jose says, afterwards, when I was
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: near my home, I became very frightened. At the same time,
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: the pressure on my breast increased, turning to pain. I
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: commented nothing to my wife, but the next day I
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: had to go to a local clinic. I then commented
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: what had happened to the doctor. So besides the pain
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: in his chest and neck, Jose says he also suffered
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: from some vision problems, some mental confusion, and impairment of
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: his reflexes, and he says that for the next several
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: days there was a strong sulfur smell inside his car.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: The car battery was drained as a result of the encounter,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: nor would it hold a charge, and it had to
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: be replaced. Also, the fuel gage no longer worked, and
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: in further confirmation of the encounter, another witness reported seeing
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: a UFO streak across the sky around the same time
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: as Jose's encounter. Now, Jose says that before the encounter
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: he was a UFO skeptic. Needless to say, he now
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: believes I think you'll agree that was a very weird case.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: We do have the electromagnetic effects with his battery being
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: drained his car battery, and the weird effects on the
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: fuel gauge, also physiological effects and feeling unwell after his encounter.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: But to me, the most interesting aspect is how he
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: described the interior of his car and his perception being
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: so drastically altered during this encounter. I don't even know
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: what was going on there or even how to describe it.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: You could see the witness himself had a lot of
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: difficulty conveying the details of his encounter. It's just so
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: unusual how this encounter almost altered his perception in some way.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: Not sure what to make of it. All right, let's
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: move to the next case. This one is very brief
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: on details. It's quite short, but it's so unusual. Never
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: heard anything quite like this that I just had to
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: include it. I call this one one good turn. This
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: occurred on October twelve, nineteen seventy eight, in Linares, Chile.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: And yeah, this is a multiple witness case and it
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: is so unusual. Oh, this case is so strange. It
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: was published in the newspaper La Terceera de la Aura.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: The third of the Hour was on October twelve, nineteen
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: seventy eight, that a group of people were traveling along
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: the rural road between the two Chilean cities of Linares
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: and Constitucion. This is about three hundred and fifty kilometers
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: two hundred and seventeen miles south of Santiago. Now the
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: strangeness began when suddenly the driver and passengers saw a
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: large charge quote red spot. They estimated it was about
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: seven hundred and fifty feet long, and it was so
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: bright it was apparently shining into the bus itself. So
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: the driver immediately pulled over. He and the passengers disembarked,
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: and they began to walk towards the area where this
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: unexplained red light was emanating, and they were just about
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: to reach it when suddenly the red quote blob disappeared.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: This caused a tremendous gust of wind. They returned back
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: to the bus, only to find a mystery. The bus
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: had been turned around one hundred and eighty degrees and
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: was now facing in the opposite direction. Nobody was able
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: to explain how this happened, nor did anyone see it happened,
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: though presumably this giant red light had something to do
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: with it. Interestingly, on that same day, a Chilean National
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: TV camera operator reportedly videotaped a UFO over Portillo Is,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: north of Santiago. I would love to talk to some
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: of those witnesses. Doesn't sound like this case was ever
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: professionally investigated, just reported in the newspaper. But how unusual
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: is that? I mean, just imagine driving along and suddenly
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: you come upon this big glowing object. Everyone gets out
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: of the bus to see what's going on. Next thing
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: they know, the bus is facing in the opposite direction.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: Nobody saw that, so this happened in a split second.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: I guess maybe there was a missing time. Again, we
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: don't have the details that would really confirm that, but
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: I'm guessing this was a straight up UFO display, an
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: intentional encounter designed to really convince the witnesses that hey,
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: UFOs are real, we are here. Or maybe there's more
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: going on there. Perhaps it was preventing an accident and
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: basically wanted them to go to the other direction. No,
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: that's pure speculation. It's fun to speculate sometimes because that
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: case is so unusual. Just imagine the UFO lifting up
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: this bus, this big heavy bus, and turning it around,
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: and nobody even seeing it happen. So strange. Now let's
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: move to the next case. I like this one because
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: it's very well investigated. There was a whole mini flap
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: of UFO sightings going on in this area at this time.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: This witness did come forward. I suspect there were quite
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: a few who did not, some absolutely dead. But this
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: particular case is really unusual, probably the least unusual of
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: all the cases in this collection, but definitely worthy of
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: inclusion because of what this witness describes. I call this
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: one I was frozen. This occurred on January five, nineteen
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: seventy nine, in Sturbridge, Massachusetts. This case comes from highly
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: respected and prolific reason searcher Raymond Fowler and was published
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: in the one thirty four issue of the Muffon UFO Journal.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: On the night of January sixth, nineteen seventy nine, just
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: after midnight, the police station at Sturbridge, Massachusetts, began to
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: receive calls from people in the area reporting UFOs. One
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: caller said he saw a quote diamond shaped object which
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: she said came down and hovered only one hundred feet
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: over her car. Another caller said that earlier on the evening,
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: which would be January fifth, a UFO had caused a
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: traffic jam along Route forty nine. This is just north
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: of Sturbridge. But perhaps the most interesting and important here
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: is a report which came from Tom Emery, who was
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: actually calling for his sister Anne Marie, who had a
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: frightening encounter with three UFOs, one of which she said
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: was only twenty feet away from her car. Was on
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: the night of January Nary five, nineteen seventy nine, and Marie,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: than twenty years old, had left a hotel in Cambridge,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: where she was employed as a housekeeper. She was going
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: to visit her parents, who lived in Springfield. This is
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: the journey of about eighty eight miles. She was driving
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: her nineteen seventy Ford Maverick and had just passed through
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: the city of Auburn. Had just moved beyond the intersection
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: of Roots ninety and two ninety and this is when
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: she noticed three red glowing what looked triangular shaped objects
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: flying in a precise formation about a quarter mile off
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: to the left side of the road. They were kind
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: of flying around a mountain. They looked so strange to
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: her that she slowed her car down to better observe them. Now,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: she also noticed several other cars slowing down. She did
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: roll down her window, but could hear no engine noises
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: coming from them. But she did see that the objects
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: not only glowed red, they had red blinking lights. Her
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: radio was playing and her seebee radio was on, but
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: the volume was turned down. Now she watched these objects
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: for the next twenty minutes as they seemed to keep
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: pace with her car. Then reaching the intersection of Route
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: ninety and Route eighty four, all the other cars that
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: were traveling with her turned onto Route eighty four, leaving
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: her alone on Route ninety. She traveled about one mile
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: and coming around a corner, she now saw the three
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: glowing objects hovering right over the road, directly in front
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: of her. In fact, she estimates that the closest one
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: was about ten feet in the air and no more
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: than twenty feet away, one was off to the right
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: about forty feet away, and the third was off to
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: the left about sixty feet away. As Anne Marie says,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: my car came to a stop. I never shifted, My
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: foot was still on the gas and it never stalled out.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: The engine was still running. It's not exactly a quiet.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: I could hear the engine going because there was no
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: other noise. My radio and CB went off. So Anne
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: Marie was close enough that she could see these objects
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: very clearly. She estimated that they were about ten feet wide.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Each object was shaped like a four sided pyramid, with
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: the apexes facing her car. They were a solid red
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: color and appeared to be constructed of smooth glass like material.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: They glowed from within, but had no discernible light source.
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: She could see four brighter red, blinking portions which protruded
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: along the back sides of the objects. These lights blinked
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: about once every two seconds. It was around this time
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: that she did notice a very strange odor. As she says,
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: there was this funny smell, almost like a skunk, but
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: like a sweet skunk. It was really weird. Now. Ray
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: Fowler believes that this was probably ozone, but Anne Marie
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: at this point found that she was unable to move.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: She was completely paralyzed, As she says, I was frozen.
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: As I approached them. My car slowed down and came
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: to a stop. They never approached me. My foot was
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: still on the gas, My engine was still running. It
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: wasn't racing like if I had had it in neutral.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Was still running at the pace when I was driving,
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: And I felt my face getting very very hot. Now.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: Anne Marie also reports that she felt somewhat nesmerized. Her
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: eyes began watering as the face off with the three
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: objects continued for what seemed like a long time, but
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: she estimates was probably only about two or three minutes
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: in duration. I think that's still a pretty long time.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: But suddenly she saw the headlights approaching from a car
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: coming in the opposite direction, and this seemed to encourage
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: the objects to take off because at that moment, the
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: object on the left rose up three hundred feet. Then
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: the middle one rose up three hundred feet, joining the
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: other one, and the third object on the right joined
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: the other two in precisely the same manner, and then
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: all three moved simultaneously, heading towards a distant hill and
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: disappeared into the distance. Instantly, Anne Marie's radio began playing.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: The Seebee radio went back on, and her car began
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: to move again. And of course, Anne Marie found herself
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: able to move, as she says, I clutched the steering
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: wheel so hard. I have long fingernails. I put scars
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: in my palms. So she immediately drove to her parents
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: home and initially did not talk about her encounter until
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: her mother confronted her. As Anne Marie says, when I
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: came back to my parents' home, my face was like sunburned.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: And as her mother says, she was a little late
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: coming in, I walked into the kitchen and her face
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: was beat red. She just looked stupefied, amazed. So she
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: asked her daughter, what's the matter. Anne Marie replied, they're
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: not going to believe me, But she then explained what
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: she had seen, and of course her mother did believe her.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: Now at that point, neither of them realized that other
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: people in the area were reporting what appears to be
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: the same objects. In the days that followed this sighting,
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: Anne Marie says that she had a bit of a
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: rash and peeling of the skin around her eyes and
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: above her nose, much in the manner of a mild sunburn.
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: But Raymond Fowler writes of the other sightings in that
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: area on that night, as he says, at six o'clock
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: that evening, two witnesses at Leicester stopped their car to
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: watch two strangely lit silent objects hover, perform sharp turns,
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: and move away. An hour later, at Worcester, a physics
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: teacher and former Navy jet pilot and his son watched
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: in amazement as a lighted object approached, then reversed direction
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: without benefit of a turn before for hovering and then
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: moving away behind the trees. Huge thanks to Raymond Fowler
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: for doing such a thorough investigation with that case. I
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: mean he actually talked to the witnesses family friends, co workers.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: He really does his due diligence. Huge kudos to the
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: witness Also Anne Marie for coming forward. Amazing. Just imagine
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: driving along you're seeing these three UFOs pacing your car.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Other people are slowing down and watching this, and the
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: second cheese alone on the highway. These craft come down
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: and almost land right in front of her on the highway,
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: blocking her forward progress. To me, this is again a
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: clear example of what I would call a UFO display.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: They wanted to be seen. I mean, that's inescapable sort of.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: This little standoff between her and the UFOs amazing. It's
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: a scene straight out of close Enconnas of the third kind.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: And she even got the sunburn that we hear in
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: a number of cases. So yeah, an important case for sure.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: All right, now let's move to the next one. I
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: found this one, I don't know, really poignant. It just
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: stuck in my mind for some reason, something about the witness.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: I guess this one I call knocked over by a UFO.
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: This occurred on August seventeenth, nineteen eighty in Lima, Ohio,
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: actually in the parking lot of a factory. We do
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: see a lot of cases where UFOs hover over technological installations,
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: so perhaps that's what's going on here. But hearing about
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: the witness, I wonder if perhaps the witness was the
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: one who attracted the UFO. This amazing case was published
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: in the Frontiers of Science magazine September October nineteen eighty issue,
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: and was investigated by John Timmerman of the Center for
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: UFO Studies. It occurred at the Teledyne Steel Foundry plant
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: located at Lima, Ohio. The primary witness is Philip Battle Senior,
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: age forty two. At the time of the encounter, he
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: was employed at the factory as a security guard. At
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: around one fifteen a m. On August seventeenth, nineteen eighty,
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: he was driving his truck in the north parking lot
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: of the factory when he noticed an unusually bright light
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: in the sky. Now, as it turns out, this was
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: not his first sighting. In fact, starting at age thirteen
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: as a young boy in Alabama, he has seen a
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: number of UFOs over the years. Like most witnesses, he
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: never reported them for fear of ridicule. So on this
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: occasion when he saw the strange light, he instantly recognized
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: it and realized that he was having another sighting. Unfortunately,
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: he was alone, so he stepped out of his truck
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: and he could now clearly see a round, flat, silvery
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: object off to the east, about two hundred and seventy
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: feet away. He estimates he could see what looked like
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: small holes on the surface of the object, as well
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: as bright yellow and white floodlights all around the perimeter's circumference.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: The lights remained solid and were neither flashing nor rotating. Now,
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: as he watched, this object moved back and forth in
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: the same area for a period of about five minutes
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: in a very unusual way. He said, it appeared to
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: do a slow flipping maneuver, in other words, going end
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: over end. He said it looked to him as if
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: it was trying to attract his attention. Now, he wasn't
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: sure how large it was or how high up, but
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: it appeared low to him and had the same apparent
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: or angular size of a fall moon. He estimates that
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: it could have been about twelve to fifteen feet wide. Then, suddenly,
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: and without any warning, it sent out a yellow beam
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: of light which struck him on the body, physically knocking
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: him back again his truck, actually scarring his knees, bruising
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: his kidneys slightly causing his left eye to become reddened.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: At this point, the beam retracted The craft then started
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: to move away, dimming in brightness, so Philip immediately tried
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: to call his partner on his CBE radio, but it
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: wouldn't work, so he immediately ran to the guard office
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: to get his partner and a third worker to come
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: outside with him to the parking lot. Unfortunately, by the
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: time they arrived, the craft was nowhere to be seen.
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: So the three men walked through the parking lot and
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: sure enough they could see this craft and now had
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: the appearance of a bright light about they estimate some
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: twelve hundred feet away to the north, and was just
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: high enough to clear the north plant building. The two
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: other witnesses agreed that the object or light was slightly
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: larger than the moon and was difficult to watch because
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: it was so darn bright. We remained hovering for about
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: fifteen or twenty seconds, then drift to the west and
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: out of view behind the building. Now Philip ran after
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: it all by himself and watched it as it floated
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: over the company pond before leaving for good. Three days later,
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: he says, on August twenty, at eleven thirty six pm,
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: he saw it again, but this time it was just
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: an anomalous light and it moved away quickly, but certainly
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: a profound sighting, one of the major ones in his life.
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: Philip died at age seventy eight in twenty seventeen. How
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: amazing is that. I think again, these cases are important
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: because they do show some interesting behavior in UFOs, and
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: I'm underlining it in this episode, I think that was
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: a UFO display. In fact, the witness himself, Philip, said
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: that he was struck by the fact that this UFO
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: seemed to be trying to get his attention, and given
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: that he had multiple encounters starting from a young child,
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: never reported them. Well, he reported this. One question is
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: why did the UFO strike him with this beam of light,
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: practically knocking him over. I'm speculating here, but I'm thinking
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: that it did this to really shake him up, to
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: let him know that, ah, we know about you. You
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: are a contact. This this is an experience that you
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: can't deny. So maybe that's what was going on here.
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: But I'm so glad he had other witnesses to support
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: and confirm the sighting of this UFO because it's got
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: to be very stressful. In fact, I know it is
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: when a person is alone, when they have their encounter
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: sometimes you can hardly believe your own eyes. So an
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: amazing case for sure. All right, let's move to the
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: next one. This one is absolutely outrageous. Of all the
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: cases in this collection, this one's probably the most famous.
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: It did get quite a bit of publicity at the time,
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: but I don't know how well known it is. Certainly
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: deserves to be well known. I call this one. I
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: saw this thing. This occurred on September thirty, nineteen eighty
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: in the tiny little town of Kilmeny, Australia. This case
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: has it all, landing traces, physiological effects, animal reactions, the
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: whole deal. And it's so extensive and so exhaustively investigated,
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: and there are supporting witnesses. That's undeniable. Something truly profound
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: happened with this one. But I wanted to include it
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: because it shows a kind of UFO behavior that we
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: see periodically that I think really says something important about
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: UFOs and in particular the ets themselves. Again, this extraordinary
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: case received considerable publicity, being published in newspapers and several
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: UFO publications. Was thoroughly investigated by Australian researchers Paul Norman,
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: Bill Chalker, Keith Basterfield, and several others. The case is
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: very well authenticated, with multiple witnesses, landing traces, animal reactions,
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: physiological effects, electromagnetic effects and more. It all began around
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: one a m on September thirty, nineteen eighty, when farm
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: hand George Blackwell, then age fifty four, was woken up
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: by the neighing horses and bellowing cattle on the five
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: hundred acre White Acre's Cattle Ranch. This is located along
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: the Prince's Highway in Kilmeny, Australia. Now, along with the
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: panicky sounds of the animals, George could also hear an
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: unusual whistling sound, and looking outside to investigate, he saw
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: an orangish bell shaped object floating and rotating about ten
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: feet above the ground, some five hundred and fifty feet
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: away between a shed and a cypress hedge near the house. Now,
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: he first thought that it might be some kind of
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: aircraft in distress, but the object was too close to
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: the ground. In fact, it was so close that the
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: bottom section was partially obscured by the shed, and after
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: seeing its unusual shape, he knew it was not any
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: normal kind of aircraft. He estimates It was about twenty
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: five feet in diameter fifteen feet high. It had bright
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: orange and blue lights on the side, each about seven
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: inches in diameter and spaced ten feet apart, and a
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: bright white dome on top. Strangely, it did not illuminate
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: the ground below it. The craft seemed to move purposely, intentionally,
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: as it maneuvered directly over an open ten thousand gallon
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: concrete water tank, which was about one quarter of a
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: mile away from the house. At that time, the tank
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: was full of water. This object proceeded to hover directly
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: over the tank for at least one minute. George says,
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: I saw this thing about ten to fifteen feet high
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: with a row of lights like portholes, was white with
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: a black brown band. So this tank was some distance
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: from the house again, so George quickly got dressed. He
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: jumped on his Suzuki motorcycle and drove to the tank.
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: He saw that the cattle had fled to a corner
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: of the field and the horse was running around in
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: a circle, clearly disturbed. Arriving at the area, he saw
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: that a cow was quote disturbed and frothing at the mouth,
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: and he could now see that the object had landed
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: or was hovering just above the ground in a field
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: about fifty feet away from the tank. So George approached
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: it within fifty feet, but he moved no closer because
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: of the intensely loud whistling sound emanating from the object.
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: So he just sat there, still mounted on his motorbike,
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: for about ten minutes, watching the object. He said, his
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: body felt really strange, quote like a plate of jelly.
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: He just sat there watching it. Suddenly the whistling noise
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: increased in volume to an awful scream, he said, And
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: at that moment, a black tube like appendage came out
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: from the bottom of the object, increased to a quote
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: tremendous size, and then produced a huge blast of heat
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: and air that was powerful enough that it nearly knocked
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: George off his bike, and in fact he could feel
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: heat coming from the blast. The object then rose upwards, slightly,
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: moved about thirty feet, and became silent, apparently creating a
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: suction which lifted debris up from the ground. Because at
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: this point, stones, weeds, leaves, and cow patties rained down
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: from its underside. George's motorcycle light was pointed upward, and
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: this allowed him to see a spoke like pattern on
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: the bottom of the craft. The craft then moved slowly
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: away and disappeared into the distance. As George says, the
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: thing lifted off just narrowly missing the shed and the
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: water tank. It went between them. So George looked at
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: his watch and saw that it had stopped at precisely
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: one ten am. Now, when he took his watch off,
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: it functioned normally, but when he put it back on,
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: it stopped again. He tried this several times. He estimates
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: that the craft was visible for almost forty five minutes,
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: and going back to his house, he saw it was
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: now one fifty am. He didn't sleep well that night,
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: and at first light in the morning, he returned to
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: the site and going to where the craft had hovered,
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: he saw a twenty eight to thirty foot diameter circle
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: and in fourteen to eighteen inch wide ring. This was
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: of grass that was browned and flattened in a counterclockwise direction. Now,
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: inside this ring, the grass was normal except for six
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: evenly spaced spokes radiating outward from the center. The stones, sticks,
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: and cow patties that he had seen falling from the
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: object were strewn along a pathway leading out from the
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: circle in the direction that the craft had departed. Now afterwards,
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: the cattle on the property avoided the circle and could
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: not be forced to go near it. But then came
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: the shocker. The ten thousand gallon water tank was almost
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: completely empty. The owner of the property arrived at nine
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: am that morning and noticed that George was white as
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: a sheet. George explained what happened, and by eleven a
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: m that morning he started to feel very unwell. The
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: owner of the property alerted the Gippsland Times newspaper and
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: this led to the case being publicized and investigated. Meanwhile,
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: George's condition worsened and in the week following the incident
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: he became very ill, suffering from headaches, vomiting diarrhea, who
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: was unable to sleep at night and would wake up
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: in a cold sweat. Now, as investigators converged on the
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: scene and word of the sighting spread, more witnesses started
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: to come forward. An anonymous truck driver says that a
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: few hours before George's encounter, he was actually followed by
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: an object for some miles while driving towards Rosedale. This
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: is just a few miles to the east of kilmeny.
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: Soon another witness surfaced, Kelly Possel, who lit four kilometers
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: two and a half miles away, and says that at
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: twelve twelve a m that evening, she looked out her
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: bedroom window and saw an object that looked like a
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: pink ball of fire moving slowly off in the western sky.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: And later more witnesses were found, a mother and daughter
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: who said that they saw flashing lights in the area
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: at that time. Now, investigators went over the timeline with
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: George from the time he left the house to the
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: time he returned, and they were puzzled by an apparent
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: time discrepancy of some twenty minutes, which George was unable
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: to account for. They did test the area for radiation,
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: but this turned up negative. As George says, I know
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: what I was seeing was all so clear. I didn't
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: leaving this sort of thing. But now I'm convinced. I
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: tell you, if anyone wants convincing now, they should come
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: and see where this thing landed. Now, the aftermath of
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: this encounter persisted for months. Car Loads of people began
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: to converge on the property to view the landing traces. Reportedly,
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: the publicity and attention from the sighting became so overwhelming
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: that George was eventually forced to leave town and a
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: final note. Just over one month later, William Dingwall, who
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: owned a large property in Bundelagua only a few miles
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: from Kilmeny, reports that he discovered several perfect circles of
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: burned grass within a six hundred foot radius that surrounded
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: his huge natural billabong. A billabong is a natural water
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: source like a pond, but per William, at the time
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: these rings appeared, he did notice that there was an
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: unusually low water level into billibong, which was normally constantly full.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: So it adds that he was awakened one night several
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: weeks earlier by quote the high pitched sound of rushing
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: air and the cats and dogs making a terrible fuss,
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: And in further confirmation, at the same time of all
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: of this, his son George, reported that he had seen
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: a strange green light in the sky over the fields.
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: William was reluctant to go public with his story quote
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: or fear of being ridiculed. A very profound encounter. I
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: feel bad for the witness suffering from what looks like
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: radiation sickness. Although he didn't go to the doctor to confirm.
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: This sounds like he got a little bit too close
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: to this UFO. But how amazing is that that it
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: drained this giant water tank of all the water inside
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: of it. We do see a number of cases like this.
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: The fact that there was another case nearby in that
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: area just a short time later, also involving water being
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: taken out of a pond, there you go. This shows
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: that UFOs sometimes do take water. There are a number
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: of cases like this of pools being drained in lakes
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: and rivers and so forth. So, yeah, all entities need water.
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: I think that's what's going on here. But an absolutely
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: undeniable and very important case. Just to underline the fact
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: that this sort of thing happens, here's another one involving
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: a UFO that appears to be interested in getting water.
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: I call this next case another thirsty UFO. This one
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: occurred on July eleven, nineteen eighty one, at a Girl
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: Scouts camp in Port Byron, Illinois. This is a single
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: witness case, but it is pretty well verified, it was investigated,
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: and it's so astonishing what happened in this particular incident.
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: This next case comes from the January February nineteen eighty
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: two issue of the magazine Frontiers ofs and was first
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: reported to the J. Allen Heinez Center for UFO Studies QFOTS.
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: The reporting witness was then the camp director of a
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: Girl Scouts troop at Port Byron, Illinois. Was ten thirty
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: pm on July eleven, nineteen eighty one, the Girl Scouts
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: had left the camp for the day. The supervisor was
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: alone at the camp headquarters, which served as his home
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: at this time. His wife and two children were away,
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: so he was alone in the house except for his dogs.
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: Without warning, the dogs started barking as if there was
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: an intruder outside, so he went outside to investigate and
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: immediately saw very bright lights by the camp swimming pool.
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: Now I couldn't see it clearly as there were many
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: trees blocking his view, and his first thought was that
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: somebody was sneaking into the pool for a late night swimp.
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: That didn't seem to make sense, as an intruder wouldn't
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: normally turn on the pool floodlights. So he immediately slipped
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: through the trees and into the clearing where this pool
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: was located, and he now saw that the pool lights
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: were not on at all, instead directly above the pool.
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: This is a pretty big pool and higher than the floodlights.
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: Itself was a brilliant light. He only saw it for
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: a few seconds. When it became extinguished, there was a loud,
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: whirring noise that rose and pitch and became softer, as
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: if this object was moving away. The supervisor took a
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: moment to gather his wits and turned on the pool lights,
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: and this is when he got an incredible shock. The
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: water level in the pool was down by three feet.
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: This meant that some thirty thousand gallons of water were gone.
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: He immediately wondered if there could be a possible leak,
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: but examining the pool, he saw no leaks. But he
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: did notice that the twenty four hour pump, which runs
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: continuously unless manually turned off, was not running. Then came
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: another mystery. Normally the pools chlorinated. However, the remaining water
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: in the pool appeared to have no chlorine in it whatsoever.
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: The supervisor was stumped to explain all of this other
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: than it had something to do with his apparent UFO
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: he had seen hovering above the pool. Took him about
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: one month to report this encounter to qfos, and he
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: only did so after hearing about another televised UFO report
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: involving a sighting on July twenty second, nineteen eighty one,
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: eleven days after his This other report was over Muscatine, Iowa.
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: So amazing. I mean, clearly this UFO took the water
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: from that pool. But what's even more amazing that suddenly
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: this water is no longer chlorinated. They dechlorinated it. How
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: interesting is that. I've never heard that before, but it
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: would make sense. They want pure water. The water for
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: this pool apparently does come from a well as well,
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: so it would be good clean water presumably. But yeah,
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: another interesting example of UFOs taking water, which we see periodically.
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: So interesting. And now we get to the last and
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: final case in this collection. This one, to me is
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: the most poignant. It's just such a really amazing case
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: in terms of how the witnesses were affected afterwards. I
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: call this one from somewhere else. This occurred on September thirty,
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: nineteen eighty two, in Hampton, New Hampshire. This is the
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: location of a very famous giant wave of sightings in Exeter,
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: New Hampshire, back in the nineteen sixties. So perhaps that's
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: related to this hard to say for sure. There are
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: four witnesses in this case. They all verified each other's story,
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: but it was the aftermath of one witness that really
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: prompted me to include this case in this episode because
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: it is amazing. This amazing encounter involves four witnesses, all
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: friends and at the time of their encounter co employees
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: at New England Telephone Company. Their names are Nicki Leclair,
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: Mary Anne Poland, Rose Messina and Mary Lamentangna. At about
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: ten fifteen pm on the night of September thirty, nineteen
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: eighty two, they were all in one car heading west
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: on Exeter Road, just past the Hampton Machine Company in Hampton,
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: New Hampshire. Mary Anne, aged forty four, was driving her Mercedes,
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: which she owned, when she first saw what she assumed
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: must be a plane flying unusually low over the trees
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: just a short distance away. As she says, I saw
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: it appeared to me to be a very low flying airplane.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: I watched it as I drove, and all of a
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: sudden it looked like one big bright light coming towards me,
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: so I still thought it was a plane. I reached
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: over touched Rose, who was dozing. She told Rose that
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: airplane is flying very low. You're supposed to be the
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: co pilot, so wake up. Now, NICKI and Mary saw
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: this plane quote plane, but weren't paying much attention to it.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: But Rose kept looking at it and finally said, hey,
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: wait a minute, that's no plane. Jeez, Marianne, that's not
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: a plane, and Mary Anne shout it out, No, that's
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: not an airplane. Look at it. There's no way that's
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: a plane. As Mary Anne says, it came towards us.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: And with that I got the attention of the two
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: in the back, and they're looking at it and they say,
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: that's no plane. Stop the car. So now all four
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: women were staring at it in amazement, and what they
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: could now see was a very huge craft quote as
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: big as a house, was moving very slowly nearby at
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: about treetop level. Nick could now see that it was
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: an oval shaped craft, ringed with flashing red and white lights.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: Now Rose Messina was in the front seat, and as
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: she says, so we all started to shout out stop
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: the car. If you're not going to stop the car,
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: we're going to jump out. Now, Mary aged twenty nine,
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: got a very good look at it from the backseat
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: of the car and shouted out stop the car. At
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: this point, the craft was now moving over a nearby house.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: Mary Anne began to stop the car. This is when
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: someone shouted out, it's going to hit the trees. Another
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: one said the thing was so low that I thought
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: it was going to crash now. Before mary Anne could
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: bring the car to a full stop, Mary and Rose Roses,
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: twenty five years old, opened the doors and sprinted from
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: the still moving car, running up the driveway of a
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: house to where the object was hovering. Their friends, mary
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: Anne and Nicky stayed in the car and watched them
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: disappear into the darkness. As mary Anne says, I'm still
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: looking at it and applying the brakes. Meanwhile, these two
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: nuts I called them, started hopping out of the car
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: before it was even stopped. Was right there on top
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: of the car. Practically, it wasn't doing anything. It was
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: just like stationary and as Rose says, so we opened
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: the door. Marianne breaked the car, but we got up
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: before the car came to a stop. The two of
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: us got out and started chasing it. It stopped was
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: standing perfectly still, but there was no noise so meanwhile
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: Mary and Rose, who ran after it, neither of them
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: felt the slightest fear. They just ran towards this craft,
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: which was slowly moving towards the edge of the woods,
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: and they ran after it, finally reaching the edge of
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: the woods and just stared in amazement as this object
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: came to a complete stop, almost directly above them. It
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: was totally silent, and as Mary la Montagne says, it
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: was so close that if I'd had a rock, I
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: could have hit it. I have a pretty good arm.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: It came and hovered right over the trees, and it
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: was huge. It was very very quiet. I didn't hear
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: a thing. The only thing I heard was the rustling
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 1: of the trees. So they were both enthralled and watched
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: the massive craft with its flashing lights, which then almost
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: immediately sent down a large white beam of light to
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: the ground like a path to the sky, is how
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: one of them described it. The other said it was
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: quote like a ray of sunlight when it comes down
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: through the clouds. Then retracted the beam and then moved
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: off over the woods and was out of view. Now.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: At this point, the owner of the nearby house flicked
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: on her porch light. So Mary and Rose fled back
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: to the car and to their anxious companions. They immediately
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: began comparing notes describing what they had seen. They all
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: agreed it was a large craft, oval in shape with
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: lights around the edges, that the wide beam of light
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: had come down at an angle from the bottom left side.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: All were convinced it was a genuine UFO, as Mary
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: la Montana says, was definitely a ship from somewhere else.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: Rose Messina said, I saw a huge oval object which
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: was very bright. The fact that it made no noise
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: astounded me. Now what neither Rose nor Mary could explain
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: is why they felt so compelled to leap from a
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: moving car to chase after the object. As Rose said, ordinarily,
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: I'm afraid of my own shadow. I'm petrified of the dark.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: As Mary says, ordinarily, I'm chicken. If it had been
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: an accident or a plane crash, I would have wanted
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: to get out of there, but I just didn't feel
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: that way. So the whole sighting lasted about three or
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: four minutes. They went home. They called PA's Air Force base,
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: could not get anyone to take them seriously or even
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: talk to them. They were all deeply impressed. Nikki Leclair
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: said that she was mostly impressed by the quote the
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: brightness and size of it. Rose Messina said that she
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: was impressed by quote the vastness of it. Then that
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: ray of light that came down from it, like a
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: beam of light when it shows through the clouds. Mary
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: and Poland said, well, it was exciting. I'll tell you
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 1: that the thing that will stand out in my memory
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: was that this thing was so low and so close
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: that I thought it was going to crash, yet it
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: made no noise. Now, Mary La Manana said, the thing
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: that impressed me the most was that I ran towards it,
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: the fact that I wasn't afraid, that I wanted to
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: get out of the car and see what it was.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: That I could have followed the thing on and on
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: if I hadn't been stopped by the trees. But it
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: was her Mary who was most deeply affected by the encounter.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: In fact, she believes that the UFO occupants communicated with
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: her telepathically, giving a special message meant just for her.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: And at the time of the encounter, Mary was a
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: heavy smoker, indulging in two and a half packs of
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: cigarettes each day as she had done for the past
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: fourteen years, but this was about to change. As Mary says,
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: they want me to be healthy. I felt because they stopped,
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 1: they wanted me to do something. I sensed that it
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: was okay that they are not here to hurt us.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: I just know there is more, but I don't know when.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: So following the encounter, Mary quit smoking cigarettes cold turkey
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: practically overnight. She no longer had any desire to smoke.
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: This amazed her friends, and they absolutely believed her when
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: she said that the UFO was responsible. As Mary says,
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: one night, about three days after the sighting, I woke
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: up in the middle of the night. I just bolted
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: out of bed and it maybe a minute with the shakes.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: But since then I had no desire to smoke at all.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: I had no withdrawal symptoms. I just stopped smoking and
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: I haven't had a cigarette since now. Mary says the
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 1: whole encounter left her quote with a private feeling of
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: being peaceful and serene. I don't feel stressed at all
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: any more. There's much stress at the phone company, and
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: I never could relax. Now I'm not in a rush anymore.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: I see people around me being extremely nervous but I
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: don't feel that way anymore. I've changed my life considerably.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: The ladies did share their sighting with whoever would listen,
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: and as a result they received considerable ridicule, but they
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: had each other to confirm their stories and all of
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: them stuck to it now. Later, Mary La Montagna and
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: Rose Messina did become partners and co owners of the
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: very successful Blue Jay Motel in Hampton, New Hampshire. And
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: again a final note, This area was the location of
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: a massive UFO wave known as the Exeter Incident. This
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 1: was in nineteen sixty five and it involved hundreds of
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: sightings which garnered national attention. What a tremendous sighting that was.
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: And again it makes me wonder is this completely intentional?
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: It sounds like it, because according to that one witness,
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: this CUFO came down and gave her a telepathic message,
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: basically telling her that there were things in her life
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: she needed to change. So this is a very personal
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: encounter for this woman. So amazing that they came down
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: and did that and she listened and changed her life.
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: How cool is that? And it's just astonishing. So again,
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: these cases might not involve humanoids, but I think you'll agree.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: They're absolutely fascinating and do have a lot to teach
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: us about UFOs ets, how they affect the environment, and
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: more importantly, how they affect the witnesses, which is profoundly amazing.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: So that's it for today, you guys. I hope you've
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: enjoyed hearing about these ten unusual cases from all over
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: the world. Close encounters of the second kind deserve a
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: lot more attention than they're getting. They have so much
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: to teach us, so thanks for watching. I truly appreciate it,
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: and until next time, keep asking those hard questions, keep
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: searching for the truth. Most important of all, keep having fun,
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 1: and I hope to see you for another episode of
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: UFOs and the Paranormal Sign It off.
