Fifty Eyewitness Drawings of UFOs · UFOS & PARANORMAL WITH PRESTON DENNETT

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Hello everyone, My name is Preston Dennett, and welcome to
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: a new episode of UFOs and the Paranormal. Today's episode
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: is called fifty Eyewitness Drawings of UFOs. What I've done
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: is taken a decade of sightings. These are mostly from
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: military witnesses, not all, but a lot, and most of
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: these cases, or a good portion of them, were reported
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: to Project Blue Book. I wanted to do this episode
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: because I think it provides some very interesting insights into
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: the nature and origin of the UFO phenomena. These cases
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: all have first hand eyewitnesses drawings to them, and they
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: show how truly different many UFO sightings are, with a
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: wide variety of craft, with different shapes and sizes, behaving
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: in many different ways. I think these cases also show
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: how truly common and widespread UFO encounters are, and they
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: also show how our government, particularly our US government and military,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: has badly bungled their handling of the UFO phenomena and
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: have done their best to lie and cover it up.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: These are just a small portion of the actual number
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: of cases. I chose these ones, which are dated from
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: nineteen forty seven to nineteen fifty seven because each of
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: them do have first hand drawings by the witnesses themselves,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: and I think that's very interesting and it's just fascinating
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: to see the different types of craft that people see.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: And it's often been said a picture is worth a
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: thousand words, and I think that's especially true when it
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: comes to UFOs, which are often very difficult, if not impossible,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: to describe. Many of these show your typical flying saucer,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: some show cigar shaped craft or egg shaped craft, many
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: different types of craft. It's really amazing how many different
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: types there are, but some are also strikingly similar, although
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: they occurred very different times and places. So that's why
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I wanted to do this episode for you today, and
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: let's just get started. The first case I'd like to
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: talk to you about today occurred on July second, nineteen
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: forty seven, in Lewiston, Idaho. This was at the very
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: beginning of the modern age of UFOs, really just days
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: before the roswellt UFO crash, and this particular sighting was
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: investigated by doctor James MacDonald, a very prominent and pioneering
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: UFO investigator, and the main witness is a lady by
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the name of missus Bergh. She was outside her home
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: in Lewistowon, Idaho out hanging clothes and was carrying baskets
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: of laundry outside. And she had been up until that
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: morning very skeptical of all the news about flying saucers
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: that was in the media, and she wondered why she
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: hadn't seen one, and had resolved to keep an land
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: in the sky in case she had the opportunity. And
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: stepping out into her back yard, she looked up and
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: saw three objects. She called out her husband and both
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: of them watched these three objects, which were disc shaped,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: as she said, like two hubcaps, face to face, and
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: they were in a vertical position. She had the impression
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: they were spinning. Her husband disagreed, but these three discs
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: moved along, maintaining a uniform distance at they said, fairly
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: high speed, but occasionally dipping up and down, as if
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: moving along the surface of a wave. So these objects
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: moved eastward until they finally disappeared towards the southeast, and
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: missus Berg thought of running into the kitchen to get
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: some binoculars or some dark sunglasses rather, which would enable
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: her to see them against the sun. But at this
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: point they disappeared, and they estimated that they watched these
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: objects for about three minutes. They were silvery in appearance
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: and glinted in the sun. But as they were watching them,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: more witnesses did come outside, so it wasn't just the Bergs.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: The other witnesses included their daughter who was in junior
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: high and a friend who was visiting. In addition, two
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: of their neighbors, the Joe Lifts, heard them talking and
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: came out to watch, and their other neighbor, Missus Sargent,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: came out, and all of these witnesses saw these objects
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: until they quickly moved off into the distance. The next
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: case I'd like to talk about occurred just about one
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: month later. This was on August thirteen, nineteen forty seven,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: also in Idaho. This was in Twin Falls, Idaho, and
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: there were three witnesses. A farmer and his two young sons,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: aged eight and ten. They were at a fishing camp
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: and it was about one pm when the farmer went
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: to look for the two boys. He had sent them
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: to the river to get some tape for his boat,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: and this is when he noticed an object about three
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: hundred feet away and about seventy five feet above the ground.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: This was below the canyon walls, which were about four
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: hundred feet high, and he was really impressed by the
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: way this object was moving. It was, as he said,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: hedge hopping or following the contour of the ground, was
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: sky blue in color, about twenty feet in diameter and
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: ten feet thick, so not terribly large, and it had
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: little pods on the side from which it appeared flames
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: were shooting out. It made little noise except for a
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: swishing sound, but he did notice that the trees were
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: highly agitated by the craft as it passed over. And
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: it turns out his two sons also observed this object,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: but it was only in view for just a few
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: seconds before it moved off, but long enough to leave
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: a deep impression on them. And as you can see
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: from the drawing, these look like your typical, well not
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: your typical, but a very unusual shaped craft. The next
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: case I'd like to talk about occurred the next year,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: on July twenty four, nineteen forty eight, over Montgomery, Alabama,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: and this case became very, very famous, and it's very
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: well known in the media. This involves two pilots who
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: saw a UFO from their airplane and it nearly collided
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: into them. That was their impression. The pilot's names are
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Clarence Chiles and John Witted, and it was two forty
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: five when it was Captain Chiles who first saw what
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: he called an unusual light dead ahead of him from
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: his cockpit, and it appeared to be closing rapidly, and
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: it was moving so fast it was leaving a glowing streak.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: So he turned to his crew member, John Witted, and said, look,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: here comes a new army jet. Job. That was his
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: first impression that this was some sort of new experimental aircraft.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: But as his object began to speed directly at them,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: in a slight dive and growing rapidly, he was suddenly
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: hit with the overwhelming sensation that this object, this light,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: whatever it was, was about to collide into them head on.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: So we quickly took his DC three plane into a
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: bank to the left, and at the same time, he said,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: this strange object turned to its left as if to
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: avoid the airliner, and John Wided looked out the right
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: side of the windows as this object streaked by. He said,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: it was no farther than a half mile off their wingtip,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: which is very close for aircraft, and maybe about five
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: hundred feet higher than their plane, and he said it
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: looked like one hundred foot long rocket ship right out
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: of a Buck Rogers comic strip. It had two rows
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: of brightly lit windows or ports of some kind, and
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: the bottom of the craft glowed a strange bluish color.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: And they could also see that there there was an
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: exhaust plume on its tail, which was very brilliant and
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: almost caused their night vision to go away. And they
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: watched this thing disappear as it climbed up into a thunderhead.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: It was only in view for about five seconds. It
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: took them a few moments to recover their composure, and
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Clarence Childs, the other crew member, decided to go into
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: the passenger cabin to see if anyone else had seen
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: this thing. Only one had, a gentleman by the name
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: of Clarence McKelvey, who was an editor from Columbus, Ohio.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: He was one of the few passengers who were awake
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: at that hour, and he told Clarence Witted, or rather
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: he told John Witted, that he had seen only a
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: quote strange, eerie streak. He said it was cherry red
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: in color, but he saw no major detail. So this
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: was a very well verified case. The witnesses are pretty
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: much unimpeachable, with a lot of military flying experience, and
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: as soon as they landed they talked to reporters and
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: the incident became front page news across the country the
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: next day and is now considered a classic case. Just
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: a few days later, on July thirty first, nineteen forty eight,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: there was an incredible sighting in Indianapolis, Indiana. This was
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: in the morning at about eight twenty five a m.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: When an electrician by the name of Vernon Swigert and
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: his wife where he was standing by an open window
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: in his home shaving, when this object in the sky
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: attracted his attention. He rushed to the kitchen to alert
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: his wife and they both looked out the kitchen window
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: and got a good look at this object, which they
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: said had a smooth surface and was shaped, they said,
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: like a symbol. They estimated this object was about twenty
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: feet in diameter and maybe about six to eight feet
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: high in its center its highest point, but not much
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: larger than being able to carry perhaps one person. According
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: to Vernon, this object was flat white, not shiny, and
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: this thing passed at a high speed on a level
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: eastern course and shimmered in the sun as if it
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: were spinning. He estimates it was about two thousand feet
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: in altitude. He heard no sound, there was no exhaust trail,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: and they were so impressed they reported it to the
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Air Force. At this point, Project Blue Book was not
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: in operation, but it was called Project Grudge, and they
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: were beginning to collect UFO reports. So they made the
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: drawing you see here. And it was just three months later,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: on October first, nineteen forty eight, when there was another
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: incredible sighting over New Orleans, Louisiana. What's interesting about this
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: case is the witness described this object as looking very
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: much like a giant ice cream cone, and he made
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: a report to OSI agents of the fourth Army Branch
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Intelligence Office in New Orleans, Louisiana. And according to the
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: report and I quote, the witness stated that on the
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: morning of October first, nineteen forty eight, he was squirrel
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: hunting on his property and he had gotten up very
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: early in the morning. At this particular time, it was
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: too dark to go into the woods hunting, but was
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: light enough to see what time it was by his watch,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: and at five forty a m. He was looking to
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: the south at the sky and saw the aerial object,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: which he described as follows. It looked like an ice
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: cream cone, he said, traveling toward the east, with the
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: larger end in front. At the front it looked as
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: if it were white hot, like the mantles in a
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: gasoline lantern, and towards the rear it got gradually darker red.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: There was no visible metal or other material, and no
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: projections of any kind, only fire. The object made absolutely
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: no noise and left no trail of any kind. It
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: was traveling on a straight line from east to west
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: and did not gain or lose in altitude. He saw
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: no visible means of proportion. He estimates it was about
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: three quarters of a mile away and at an elevation
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: of about twenty five hundred feet, and as he says,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I watched this object for approximately ten seconds before it
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: was obscured by some trees. It appeared to be about
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: the side of an average airliner and was traveling at
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: approximately three hundred miles per hour. The larger end of
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: the cone appeared to be thicker than the average airliner
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: is through the fuselage, but it was about the same length.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: The object displayed no lights other than it appeared to
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: be encased in flame and it did not light up
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: the area. There was no visible means of support and
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: no control surfaces that he noticed. So after investigating this,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: the blue Book intelligence officers decided that this was a
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: meteor case number one seventy four, though the witness disagrees
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: and believes that this was not a shooting star. The
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: next case I'd like to talk about occurred just fourteen
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: days later, on October fifteenth, nineteen forty eight, at Fukuoka, Japan.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: And this is a very interesting case in which two
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Air Force pilots basically interacted with this UFO and sort
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: of a cat and mouse game. And I'd just like
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: to quote one of the Air Force pilots first. And
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: as he says, and I quote, my radar observer and
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: myself were flying a routine airborne alert mission approximately fifty
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: miles out to sea northwest of Fukuoka, Japan. We made
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: our first contact with airborne radar set with a target
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: we assumed to be a P fifty one. We attempted
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: to practice interception, but the target put on a tremendous
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: burst of speed and dived so fast we were unable
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: to stay with it. And at this point. The intercepting
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: aircraft was traveling at approximately three hundred miles per hour
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: and descending at thirty five hundred feet per minute. This
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: was a head on interception, and when this target passed
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: under us, we executed a chandel back to our original
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: altitude of approximately six thousand feet. Our second target was
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: immediately picked up on the scope and a stern interception
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: was attempted, but the aircraft immediately out distant stuff. At
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: this time we were puzzled by the tremendous bursts of speed.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: The third target was spotted visually by myself. I had
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: an excellent silhouette of the target thrown against a very
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: reflective undercast by a full moon, and I realized at
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: this time that it did not look like any type
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: of aircraft I was familiar with, so I immediately contacted my
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: ground control station and asked for information regarding any aircraft
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: flying in the area. I informed them of what I
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: had seen and was in contact with them from then on.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: The fourth target passed directly over my ship from stern
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: to bow at a speed of roughlyet twice that of
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: my aircraft of two hundred miles per hour. I caught
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: just a fleeting glance just enough to know that he
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: had passed me. And the fifth and sixth targets were
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: attempted radar interceptions, but their high rate of speed put
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: them immediately out of range. The only aircraft I can
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: compare our targets too is the German ME two sixty two,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: but it was not an ME to sixty two or
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: similar jet and his co pilot. The other member of
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: his crew was Barton Halter, a second lieutenant. He was
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: the fighter's radar operator and he agreed that this was unusual,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: and as Barton Halter said, we dived in an attempt
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: to follow it, passed beneath us and was gone. I
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: was notified by my pilot that we were diving at
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: a rate of thirty five hundred feet a minute at
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: three hundred miles per hour. I had intended to ask
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: the pilot to peel off after it split, but it
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: was gone too fast. The next or second interception was
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: from the rear of the target, as was the first. However,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: the target added a burst of speed dead ahead and
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: out distanced us immediately. And on the third interception, my
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: pilot called a visual at sixty degrees port side and
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: by this time I made the pickup. It was at
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: forty five degrees port three thousand feet and on five
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: degrees below. My pilot made a rapid starboard turn in
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: an attempt to head off the target, and by the
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: time we got a cern of it, it was off
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: again in a burst of speed and disappeared between nine
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: and ten miles. And on the fourth interception, the pilot
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: called ti me called to me that we had been
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: passed from above from the rear by our target. I
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: picked up the target as it went off my scope
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: from five to ten miles, dead ahead and slightly above,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: And on the fifth and sixth interceptions, the target appeared
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: at nine miles doing approximately two hundred miles per hour.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Then with a burst of speed, the target pulled away
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: to the outer limit of my set, which is ten
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: miles for airborne targets. This took approximately fifteen to twenty seconds,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: and in my opinion, we were shown a new type
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: of aircraft by some agency unknown to us, so they
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: were absolutely puzzled. They do not believe this to be
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: any conventional aircraft, and they reported it to their superiors
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: in the Air Force. The next case I'd like to
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: talk about took place the next year, actually on January first,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: nineteen forty nine, over Jackson, Mississippi. Now what's interesting about
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: this case is the commanding General at right Field Intelligence
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: in Ohio displayed a strong interest in this case and
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: they conducted an investigation and took first hand testimony from
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: the pilot, the witness who says, am I quote, My
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: wife and I were flying from Gulfport to North Jackson
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: Airpark and we were approaching the airport. Our altitude was
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: about eighteen hundred feet when I saw something go in
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: front of us. I assumed it was another plane since
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: it was headed towards the municipal airport in Jackson and
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: was on the eastern leg of the airways. I watched
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: the object to try to recognize the type of plane,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: and after it passed, it made a turn of about
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: fifty degrees and headed southwest. And as the object made
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: its turn, it was then that I noticed the object
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: didn't have wings. At that time, my wife saw the
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: object and became excited. She is a private pilot and
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: familiar with plane identification from the air. And when it
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: crossed in front of us, I estimate the speed to
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: be about two hundred miles per hour and about five
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: hundred feet in front of us, So this is very close,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: much too close for this to be another airplane. And
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: as the witness says, we tried to point out the
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: object to the pilot, but he thought we were trying
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: to show him something else. And as the object turned
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: and went to the southwest with a sudden burst of speed,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: it was out of sight. In all I saw the
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: object ten or twelve seconds. So they reported this to
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: the predecessor of Project Blue Book. This is case number
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: two three three in the Air Force files, and their
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: official evaluation of this report says, and I quote, there
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: is nothing in this incident that can be said to
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: have an astronomical origin, which is, in other words, saying
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: that this was actually some sort of structured craft of
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: unknown origin. So a very interesting case. And it was
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: that same month, on January twenty seventh, nineteen forty nine,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: that there was another incredible sighting by an Air Force
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: officer and his wife between Cortes and Braderton, Florida. This
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: Air Force officer had an engineering background and was actually
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: assigned to the Air Material Command Intelligence Department, and for
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: a half an hour on that night January twenty seven,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: these witnesses watched something very strange moving about the sky,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: and they described this as an object that was resembling
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: a cucumber in shape, but had a double row of lights.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: They said it had the appearance of quote, a row
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: of lighted windows, but brighter. And as this thing moved
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: off into the distance, it became smaller and looked very
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: much like a ball of fire, and they could see
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: what appeared to be sparks flying from it. They described
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: this as sparks like from the burning log. But the
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: thing is these were appearing in a rhythmic pattern. At
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: this point it was pale red, and the Air Force's
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: summary says that this was exceptionally bright at split second intervals,
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: and that during the second sighting of this object, the
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: sparks appeared more pronounced and were apparently pulsating at approximately
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: one quarter second intervals. And as the witnesses watched, this
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: object appeared to bounce up and down as it climbed
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: rapidly and faded off into the distance until it was
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: a tiny point and then was gone. So a very
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: unusual object, to say the least. Three months later, on
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: April twenty eighth, nineteen forty nine, there was an unusual
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: sighting at Fort Bliss in Texas. What's interesting about this
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: case is the witnesses were all military officers and they
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: cited what they described as a flat, shining object stationary
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: in the sky. So being military officers, they reported this
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: and all seven witnesses submitted visual impressions drawings of these objects,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: and as you can see, these drawings are all very similar,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: so it's clear that they saw something. They did not
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: think it was a weather balloon. However, when the Air
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Force investigate, it turned out that the Skyhook program had
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: just started in White Sands several days prior to this sighting,
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: and these are giant balloons some one hundred and fifty
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: feet in diameter, to test the upper atmosphere, and the
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: investigators concluded that this is probably what the witnesses saw,
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: but they're not sure because there were a number of
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: other sightings at that time involving objects that were moving
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: in ways that is not explainable as a balloon. So
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: there's some controversy or confusion about what these were. And
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: now we move on to the next case, which occurred
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: just one month later on May twenty fourth, nineteen forty nine.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: This is at Rogue River, Oregon, and this involves a
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: very unusual looking object, but the witnesses are almost unimpeachable.
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: There were five people in a group saw this object
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: in the air over Rogue River, and two of them
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: were actually aeronautical engineers, and these engineers approached the security
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: officer at Ames who was a representative for the National
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Advisory Committee for Aeronautics. So good witnesses and they were
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: eventually interviewed by Project Grudge investigators. All five witnesses were
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: questioned and all of them gave identical accounts. And one
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: of the witnesses says, and I quote, while fishing with
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: a party of friends about two and a half miles
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: up the Rogue River, at approximately five pm on May
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: twenty fourth, nineteen forty nine, my attention was called to
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: an object in the sky. The object was to the
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: east of my location. With the naked eye, little but
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: a glare and a silvery glint could be seen. But
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: after watching it for approximately one one minute and a half,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: I was handed to a pair of eight power binoculars
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: and it was then possible to see that the object
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: was roughly circular in shape and appeared to be thirty
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: to thirty five feet in diameter. It had somewhat the
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: cross sectional appearance of a pancake, being thicker in the
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: center than at the edges, and a small triangular fin
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: started approximately in the middle and grew gradually higher to
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: the rear as the object traveled. When first sighted, the
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: object was moving slowly, but as I watched it through
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: the glasses it picked up speed, and when it vatched
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: from sight approximately ninety seconds later, it was traveling as
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: fast or faster than a jetplane. As far as could
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: be seen. It had no openings or protuberances of any
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: kind other than the fin, and there was neither sight
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: nor sound of any driving force. So again a very
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: unusual object. This next case occurred on November thirty, the
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: same year, nineteen forty nine, over Lexington, Nebraska, and this
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: was not only investigated by THESI District Office of the
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: US government, but was also investigated by investigators j. Allen Heineck,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: who was newly the astronomical consultant for Project Blue Book,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: and later investigated by UFO researcher Jan aldrich. So. An
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: official report was filed by THESI agents and one of
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: the main witnesses was Dean Wolf. He was a farmer.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: There were several witnesses, but Dean Wolf had special training
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: and according to the report by Thesi and I quote,
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: the men were threshing grain in an open field. Dean
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: Wolf first noted the objects coming from the southwest and
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: called his helper's attention to the airplanes. As objects came closer,
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: it was noted that they were not of conventional airplane design,
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: and Dean Wolf was a recent graduate of a two
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: year course of aeronautical designing, and he stated he first
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: thought the objects were F eighty aircraft, but as the
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: objects moved, he realized that the objects had performance of
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: an F eighty but did not have the design. Dean
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Wolf executed a free hand drawing seen here of what
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: he believed the object looked like. Dean Wolf said the
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: objects appeared to be drifting towards them over a low
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: line of hills, seemed to pick up speed, at which
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: time two of the objects left a trail of sparks
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: as the objects approached them, the lead and number two
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: objects this crossed positions, with the number three maintaining its
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: position in the formation. The objects then executed a ninety
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: degree turn away from Earth and climbed straight up, disappearing
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: from view. A dazzling brightness was noted from the objects
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: and was believed to be a reflection until it was
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: realized that the sun was almost on the horizon and
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: the objects were going away from the sun, so this
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: was clearly not a conventional plane, and researchers later learned
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: that there were in fact other witnesses, including mister and
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: missus Don Ballheam of Lexington, Nebraska, and their daughter Janet.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: They were at their home, standing in the front yard
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: and saw these two objects, which they said were traveling
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: very fast. They estimated it was about a mile of
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: altitude five thousand feet, and they looked much bulkier than
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: conventional aircraft. They said, maintained a straight and level flight
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: until suddenly turning away from the Earth and going straight up,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: like Dean Wolff and the other witnesses said, And they
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: said that they noticed what appeared to be a trail
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: of sparks, So they were not aware of the other witnesses.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: And this is a multi witness case. And as you
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: can see from these drawings, a very unusual object. All right,
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: moving along now we moved to March fifteenth, nineteen fifty,
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: when doctor Craig Hunter was driving on the Hudson area
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: on Highway one point fifty three. All right, and now
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: we moved to March fifteen, nineteen fifty. This case took
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: place in Penfield, Pennsylvania. The main witnesses doctor Craig Hunter,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: who was driving along Highway one point fifty three and
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: as he drove up this mountain road in a sparsely
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: populated area, a warning light when on his dash and
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: the car's animeter indicated that the battery was discharging, So
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: he parked and got out to check under the hood
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: to see if there was an electrical short And as
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: he's poking around inspecting the wires leading from the battery,
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: another truck with a farmer pulled up, a mister Jaeger,
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: and he introduced himself and offered to help. And they're
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: looking at the engine when both men heard this weird, odd,
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: hissing and whistling sound, and looking up, they saw what
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: they described as a weird machine with a dirty aluminum
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: grayish color. It coasted leisurely into view, soaring very little level,
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: about three hundred and fifty feet above the ground. I said,
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: there was no way this thing was a balloon. He
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: estimates that this object was one hundred feet or so
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: in diameter and about thirty feet thick. So he turned
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: to the mister Yeager and told him to look. And
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: mister Yeger looked at the object, stared in disbelief for
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: a few seconds, then gasped, my God, jumped into his
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: truck and drove away at high speed. Terrified, doctor Hunter, however,
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: stood his ground, though he did later tell investigators that
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: he was quite frightened, but overcoming his fear as best
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: as he could. He studied this strange object and noticed
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: three concentric circles on the underside that appeared to show
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: a slowly rotating inner ring, and he thought perhaps he
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: was looking at a radically new type of military aircraft.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: But as it passed out of sight, he realized that
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: this was probably one of those UFOs that people were
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: talking about, and he felt it was his civic duty
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: to contact authorities, so he called the local newspaper, the
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: Saint Mary Daily Press, who was very much impressed by
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: his story, and after talking to the witness, they realized
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: that this was probably a UFO and put his story
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: out on the ap newswire, and this caused a lot
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: of publicity, and doctor Hunter's phone began to ring constantly,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: and he got many other calls from people. But the
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: one that really gave him some comfort was other witnesses
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: who were in the area at the same time, and
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: some of them were in a plane and they saw
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: what they described as a shiny disc in the air.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: And also there was a large group of people on
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: the ground who also observed this object, so he was
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: not the old only witness by any means. Now here's
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: another really fascinating case which also took place in nineteen
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: fifty just five days later on March twentieth. This took
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: place in the city of Stuttgart, Arkansas. And this is
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: a really good case because it involves pilots who were
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: actually flying at the time. Was Captain Jack Adams and
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: his co pilot G. W. Anderson, who were flying their
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: plane It's flight fifty three at nine thirty pm. Their
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: plane was at about two thousand feet altitude on the
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: southwesterly course over Arkansas, and when suddenly Captain Adams noticed
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: a bright light in the dark sky. And as he says,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: and I quote, the light had an unusual bluish and
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: brilliant glow, flashing on and off, far more rapidly than
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: the normal blinking of civilian aircraft lights. So he nudged
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: his copilot and said, my god, what's that? And his
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: co pilot, Anderson, took a look at this object, which
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: is apparently coming straight at them with great speed. This
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: was a very bright light, he said, flashing every three seconds.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: And they thought that this light was actually on the
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: top of a flat, round object because as they watched,
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: it crossed right in front of their airliner at an
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: altitude of about one thousand feet higher than their plane,
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: and as it did so, it tilted at an angle
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: so that only its underside was visible, and at this
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: point they could see nine to twelve glowing ports on
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: the underside. These ports gave off a soft purple fluorescent light, and,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: as Captain Adams says, although the object was moving at
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: terrific speed, the pattern was clear and constant. It did
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: not change shape as it darted past. The night was
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: dark but clear, and visibility was perhaps forty to eighty miles.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: We could see no portion of the object other than
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: the lights. So they were convinced that this was not
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: a meteor, but some sort of craft about one hundred
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: feet in diameter, and as Captain Adams says, we kept
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: this object in sight for about forty five seconds until
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: it disappeared from sight, and I would estimate that it
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: was traveling between five hundred to six hundred miles per hour.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: They asked if any of the passengers confirmed the sighting,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: and Captain Adams said, we didn't tell them because we
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: didn't want to alarm them, but they did contact Little
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: Rock Tower to report their position and added that a
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: quote flying saucer had just zoomed past while researcher and
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: news commentator Frank Edwards heard about this and managed to
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: contact Captain Adams while he was still airborne, and Frank
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Edwards recorded this conversation and played it back over the
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: air on the Mutual Radio network, and the broadcast was
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: a huge sensation. Captains Adams and Anderson became instant celebrities,
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: and by the time they landed, representatives of the United
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: Press were there in large crowds to question both of
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: the pilots. Both pilots said that they were absolutely convinced
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: that they had witnessed the flight of an actual mechanical device,
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: which they thought might be a secret American experimental aircraft.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: They were aware of the recent airce for statements that
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: dismissed UFO reports, but they declared that it would be
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: hard to fool them with all their flying experience. As
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: Pilot Andersen said, we've heard and read a lot about
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: flying saucers and were as skeptical as anyone else. But
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: when you see something with your own eyes, you have
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: to believe it. We were flabbergasted. So upon landing they
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: were approached by Air Force investigators and they discussed the
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: UFO sightings for a few minutes, and the Air Force
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: officers told them that they had probably just seen a meteor,
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: and this shocked and angered the pilots. However, ultimately the
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: Air Force records this case as unidentified and in support
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: of this case. Besides the two pilots, other pilots came
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: forward with seeing apparently the same object in the sky,
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: and these include Captain Paul W. Bennett and First Officer
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: William T. Twerrow, who saw what they described as a
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: quote bright and strange object in the distance off of Greenwood, Mississippi,
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: and the pilots said they didn't want their friends kidding
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: us about flying saucers. But they did tell the press,
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: and they said that the saucer remained in view long
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: enough to call their stewardess, Patricia Hicks, and she pointed
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: it out to several passengers. As it turns out, one
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: of their passengers was a captain. His name was Captain
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: Tommy Bridges. So this sighting created a lot of attention
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: and sparked interest nationwide, and in fact, Missus Eleanor Roosevelt,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: the widow of the late president, even invited the two
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: pilots to appear with her on television, and this caused
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: a lot of commentary. So news commentators who were very popular,
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: people like Walter Kiernan, Drew Pearson, and Fulton Lewis Junior,
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: took time out to comment about this sighting. And in fact,
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: another prominent prominent gentleman, W. H. Shippen, did a piece
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: about the Air Force and their attempts to hush up witnesses.
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: So this was great vindication for Major Donald Keyhoe, who
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: had recently been denounced as a rumormonger, and now people
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: were beginning to listen to Donald Keyhoe, who is today
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: considered a true pioneer and hero in the UFO field
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: all right. Moving along to the next case, which occurred
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: on May twenty ninth, nineteen fifty over Washington, DC. This
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: was about fifty miles southwest of Washington, d C. When
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: an American Airlines pilot, Captain Willis T. Sperry, was cruising
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: along at eight thousand feet in his DC six when
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: his attention was diverted as he was looking at a map,
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: and his co pilot, Bill Bates, caught sight of a
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: brilliant blue glow and thought a collision was imminent, so
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: he yelled, watch it, watch it. Captain Sperry quickly looks up,
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: grabs the controls, and jerks the airliner into an abrupt
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: turn as this strange glow zoomed directly toward his plane.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: And as it approached, they could see that this was
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: a brilliant, bluish fluorescent light. And after returning to a
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: straight course and gathering their wits, Captain Sperry and his
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: co pilot saw that this blue light now appeared to
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: be motionless. It was about twenty five times the magnitude
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: of the brightest star in the sky, but after a moment,
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: this blue light started to move passed right in front
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: of the moon, which was full at the time, and
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: Captain Sperry, his crew member's Gates, and the flight engineer
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: Robert Arnholt all could see a silhouette. And for about
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: ten seconds they watched this object hovered motius, motionless, and
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: then they saw that it had a cigar like shape
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: as it moved forward. And as Captain Sperry says, and
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: I quote, when the object first appeared coming toward US,
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: I started to turn to the right. Then when it
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: changed its course to parallel US, I started turning to
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: the left so as to be able to follow its path.
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: Even so it went to the rear of the plane,
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: circled around the right, far enough so that first Officer
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: Gates he saw it on his side before reversing its
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: direction and going out of sight. So he immediately radioed
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: Washington Tower, but the controllers there so that they did
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: not see anything. They did alert the press, and the
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: next day reporters questioned Captain Sperry, and instead of being
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: ridiculed by his fellow pilots, they actually approached him and
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: insisted on having a serious discussion about what they called
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: the flying saucer problem. And in fact, one of the
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: pilots said that he had seen something just four hundred
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: miles to the south on that same evening. This was
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: a pilot by the name of Henry H. Myers, who
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: was actually Franklin Roosevelt's personal pilot during World War II,
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: and he described seeing an object which he thought at
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: first was a shooting star. However, this object dropped on
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: out of sight, fell a distance, and then moved horizontally,
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: so he doesn't think it was a meteor, and neither
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: do Captain Sperry and mister Gates, and in fact, a
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: spokesman for the American Airlines reacted to Captain Sperry's description
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: of this UFO's astounding speed and expressed amazement, noting that
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: this object being able to circle a three hundred mile
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: per hour airliner twice, demanded an engine of incredible power.
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: So a very good case, and it remains unexplained to
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: this day. The next case I'd like to talk about
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: took place on February tenth, nineteen fifty one, over Argentia
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: in Newfoundland. The main witness is Lieutenant Fred W. Kingdon,
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: Junior of the US Navy, and on the day in question,
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: while serving as second plane commander on flight. He says, quote,
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: I was an eyewitness to an unusual sighting of an
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: unidentified flying object. We were at ten thousand feet altitude,
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: cruising on a true course of about two hundred and
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: thirty degrees. My attention was first called to the occurrence
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: by mister Bethune, this is one of the crew, who
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: asked me to look at an unusual light which was
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: to my right. I then saw that there was a
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: glowing light beneath a thin layer of strato form clouds
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: beneath us. This was to my right and down at
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: an angle of about forty five degrees. The subject appeared
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: to lie on the surface and was throwing a yellowish
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: orange glare through the cloud deck. It appeared to appeared
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: to be very large, and when I first thought that
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: it could be a large ship completely illuminated. Mister Bethune
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: and I watched the object for several minutes in trying
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: to to determine its nature. We then called our navigator,
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: this is Lieutenant Koger, to the cockpit to scrutinize the
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: object and render his opinion as to its nature. While
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: further observing the object, I saw that it suddenly started
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: ascending through the cloud layer, and then it became quite bright.
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: The object was very large and was circular, with a
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: glowing yellow orange ring around its outer edge. The object
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: appeared to be climbing and moving a tremendous speed, and
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: it appeared to be on a more or less collision
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: course with our aircraft. When it appeared that there was
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: a possibility of collision, the object appeared to make one
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: hundred and eighty degree turn and disappeared over the horizon
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: at terrific speed. During the course of events, Lieutenant Jones
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: had come to the cockpit and he made a turn
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: in the direction of the object, but it went out
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: of sight in a short period of time. The speed
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: was tremendous and the size was at least two hundred
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: to three hundred feet in diameter. The object was close
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: enough to see and observe it clearly, and my first
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: view of it resembled a huge fiery orange disc on
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: it on its edge. As it went further away, the
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: center became darker, but the edge threw off a fiery hue,
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: and when it went over the horizon, it seemed to
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: go from a vertical position with only the trailing edge
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: showing in a half moon effect. So when the plane
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: landed in Argentia, the pilots were interrogated by Captain Paulson
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: of Pepperrell Air Force Base and Navy Commander Wei Meier,
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: and of the navyman. He one of the navymen said
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: of the questioning, the types of questions they asked asked
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: us were like Henry Ford asking about the model T
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: You got the feeling they were putting words in your mouth.
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: Was obvious that there had been many sightings in the
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: same area, and most of the observers did not let
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: the cat of the bag openly. When we arrived in
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: the US, we had to make a full report to
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: Navy intelligence, and I found out a few months later
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: that Gander radar did track the object in excess of
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: eighteen hundred miles per hour. So despite this, that this
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: object was on radar, they could see its size three
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: hundred feet in diameter was clearly a solid object. The
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: Air Force concluded that what these pilots had seen was
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: northern lights. This is typical of how Project's blue book
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: is trying to lie and cover up these UFO events.
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: It's absolutely ridiculous. Another very interesting case occurred on April sixteenth,
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: nineteen fifty two, in Yuma, Arizona. The main witnesses in
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: this case were Lieutenant Gerald Williams and his date, Sally
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: Ann Diggs, who it turns out is the daughter of
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: Colonel Edward R. Diggs, then the newly commanding officer of
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: the Yuma Air Force Base. And as Sally and Diggs
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: says and I quote, no detail could be forgotten from
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: that night in April nineteen fifty two, it was a
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: calm night, hot as usual for Yuma, Arizona. My date,
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: Lieutenant Gerald Williams, and I had gone to a drive
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: in movie. The first feature was approximately one half finished
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: when I decided to get out of the car and
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: an extremely bright light caught my eyes from an angle
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: to the right side of the movie screen. The object
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: which emitted the light was one of the most awe
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: inspiring sights I have ever seen. I stood looking transfixed,
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: for I have never seen anything like this. It was
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: quite quite large, appearing to be the size of a car.
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: It was beautiful in a weird way. The shape was
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: that of two gently sloping bowls, each with rims to
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: the other and bottoms circular and flat. It almost seemed
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: to be a portion of the landscape, for it was
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: not very high in the sky and its form was
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: completely illuminated by its own lighting system. The top portion
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: rotated ever so slowly, and I would not have noticed
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: any movement. If what may have been scars, indentations, or
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: some type of markings had not appeared and disappeared, it
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: was possible the lower portion moved also, but I did
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: not feel that it did. The center rim or ring
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: housed the yellow and rose red pastel lights, which completely
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: bathed the object in light. With all the car windows
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: open and the volume of the car speakers on, it
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: would be impossible to say for sure that there was
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: no sound, but I do not believe that there was any.
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: It merely sat there and the top moved slowly. So
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: she called for her boyfriend to come outside, and he
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: also saw it, and he said, I've never seen anything
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: like that in my life. My god, it was huge.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: So they tried to alert some other people in the theater,
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: but nobody saw it, and they ended up going home
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: and telling her father again, the commanding general of Yuma
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: Air Force Base, and he demanded that someone investigate, and
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: they sent over an officer who attempted to explain away
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: their sighting as best as he could with the commanding
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: general there. But this sighting was very well verified, and
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: in fact, just a few days after that, there was
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: another sighting over the same drive in theater. I did
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: cover this in more detail in my book UFOs at
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: the Drive in and in a prior YouTube episode, But
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: years following the incident, researcher Richard Hall, working for Nightcap
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: confirmed this incident, actually writing to Colonel Edward R. Diggs,
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: who confirmed the report and had little to add other
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: than it caused quite a stir among those present at
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: the drive in theater at that time. All right, moving along,
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: I mean there's so many cases. June twenty first, nineteen
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: fifty two. This is over South Texas. Sergeant Howard Davis
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: was on an Air Force training wing as a passenger
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: in an aircraft passing over South Texas again on June
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: twenty first, when he witnessed an extraordinary spot of light
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: flashing downwards. He only got a brief glimpse of a
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: brilliant object, but he guessed it was about three feet
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: by three feet and was trailing a tale of sparks
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: at least fifteen feet long, so they thought this could
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: possibly be a meteor. But it's clear from the drawing
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: that this was not a meteor, and Sergeant Davis himself
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: was convinced that he had viewed an actual machine whose
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: shape and the glow around it he believed held vital
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: clues as to its power and its origin. It's an
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: unusual case, for sure. And here's another case involving your
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: typical ice cream cone shaped object. This occurred on July thirteenth,
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: nineteen fifty two, over Dayton, Ohio, and as you can
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: see from this drawing, it's very unusual. This drawing was
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: made by Ray Ellis, who was then president of the
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: Rubber Seal Products in Dayton, Ohio, and on July thirteen,
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: he saw this thing, which he described as looking very
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: much like an ice cream cone. It appeared overhead at
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: about twelve twenty five am, and as he got a
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: close look at it, he could make out a quote
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: a HEMI sphere of white light in front of it,
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: an elliptical dark object in the center where the ice
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: cream would meet the cone, and the rest of it
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: a bright light. So this is one of several cases
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: in which upos are described as looking like an ice
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: cream cone. Investigators now believe that this is probably just
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: an effect of people seeing a disc shaped object enveloped
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: by a sort of plasma field trailing behind it. Hard
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: to say, but it's definitely a very interesting sighting Moving along.
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: Nineteen fifty two was a huge year for UFOs. It
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: was just one week later, on July twentieth, nineteen fifty two,
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: at around midnight, when a farmer in Madison, Florida, was
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: checking on some piles of tobacco stored in a shed
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: on his property, and looking out the window, he caught
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: sight of two quote somethings suspended in space. He was
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: so amazed by this site. He yelled to a farm
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: hand standing nearby, and they both ran out to the
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: window peeked out, and the farm had said, lord, mister Woodson,
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: what is that? For the next four minutes, the two
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: men stared at these glowing, oblong objects. They were very
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: curious and we're not sure what these objects were going
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: to do, because they were just sitting there. Only one
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: of these objects quote switched on a light and then
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: it began to move horizontally, and mister Woodson, the farmer,
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: was absolutely convinced. He was watching something quote uncanny, and
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: he watches his object creeped forward, and it didn't go
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: far before it went back towards its companion, stopped for
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: an instant and then shot straight up out of sight.
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: Seconds later, the other object, which had been still the
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: whole time, quickly zoomed upwards following the first object. So
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: clearly unexplained. And it was just eleven days later, on
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: July thirty first, nineteen fifty two, when there was another sighting,
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: this time over Passaic, New Jersey, and this sighting got
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: a lot of attention because the witnesses were able to
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: take photographs. There were two gentlemen won by the name
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: of John H. Riley and his friend George J. Stock,
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: and they saw this large gray disk about thirty feet
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: in diameter with a large central dome, hovering two hundred
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: feet off the ground. They were able to take seven
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: pictures with a Kodak Duo flex camera and if this
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: object was traveling southeast at a leisurely speed, appearing to
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: come to an almost complete stop when it came very
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: close to the men, as if posing, it hovered for
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: a few minutes. The entire sighting lasted about seven minutes
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: and John Riley says, and I quote it was so
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: near it could have been hit with a rifle. It
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: made no sound and appeared to tilt as though to
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: observe the ground before speeding off to the southwest. Now,
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: although the pictures were actually taken by George Stock, there
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: was controversy that followed when John Riley took these pictures
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: and brought them to the New Jersey Morning Call newspaper office,
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: and they contacted Major Herman at wright Field because they
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: were amazed at how phenomenally cleared these objects were and
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: were convinced they were genuine. And when John Riley was
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: questioned about it, he insisted that they were genuine, even
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: when he was threatened with arrest. But as it turns out,
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: George Stock took the photos. They are now considered a classic.
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: And I'm not sure who provided the drawing here. I
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: believe it was George Stock. There's some controversy about that,
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: but as you can see, it's a very well verified
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: case that most researchers to this day believe is genuine.
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: All Right, Moving along, nineteen fifty two again a very
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: big year. It was just two weeks later on August fifteenth,
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: nineteen fifty two when two men in white Cloud, Michigan,
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: were on a small boat casting for black bass on
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: Diamond Lake. This is again outside of the city of
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: White Cloud. Was nine fifteen pm when they saw something
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: weird streaking overhead and one of the fishermen he was
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: a pilot and familiar with jets and had attended aircraft
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: recognition classes, and he knew instantly that this was not
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: a plane and that he was looking at an actual UFO,
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: and he yelled to his companion look, and as they watched,
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: this thing came out of the northwest and disappeared to
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: the south, and it was in view, the estimate for
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: only about five seconds, but it was very low, passing
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: overhead at a mere eight hundred feet high and maybe
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: about one thousand feet away. They estimate its speed is
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: about seven hundred miles per hour, so quite fast. And
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: the pilots estimated that this object was about the same
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: size as the future uselage of a large aircraft. And
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: he was very much impressed by the fluorescent blue green
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: glow it gave off. So he did provide a drawing
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: for Air Force investigators, and it turns out that there
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: were twenty other people on the lake at that time,
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: plus residents in the area who also saw this object,
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: so it's a very well verified multi witness encounter. Just
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: a short time later, August twenty fourth, nineteen fifty two,
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: this time over Tucson, Arizona, at five forty pm, there
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: was an amazing event in which an object was seen
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: hovering overhead and then was seen shifting position in this
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: weird wavering dam motion. And the witnesses watched this object
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: as it flew towards the west, and they described it
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: and I quote the lower one third of the object
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: appeared to be surrounded by a misty substance less brilliant
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: than the object itself, and the lower extremity of the
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: sphere protruded below this halo, so, as you can see
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: from the drawings, a pretty interesting object. Here's another case
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: which was investigated by Project blue Book, and this took
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: place in Turkey. This was on September twenty fifth, nineteen
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: fifty two, and this is in the blue Book files,
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: and it's quite brief because the information on this was
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: pretty much unreadable. But what was readable was a few
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: things that the appearance of this object was deaf, a
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 1: saucer like and that the source of the report was
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: three US Air Force non commissioned officers, so good witnesses,
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: and they estimated that the speed of this object was
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: one thousand miles per hour, so very fast, and that
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: it flew in a very erratic flight path, unable or
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: not matchable to a conventional aircraft. So it's a brief report,
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: but quite interesting, and they were able to provide drawings,
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: so I did include it here in this list. Okay.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: One month later, October twenty second, nineteen fifty two, there
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: was a huge disc seen over Laurenberg Maxton Air Force
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: Base in North Carolina. An air policeman by the name
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: of Bernard de Monti was walking to his guard post
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: at around ten ten pm when you heard an odd, dull,
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: monotonous tone coming from above. Was the noise he'd never
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: heard before, and looking up, he saw a huge circular
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: object which he estimated was between one hundred and one
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty feet in diameter, and he said it
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: was covered with colored steady glowing lights. He saw two
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: red lights along the leading edge and some eight to
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: twelve green ones on the trailing edge, and he said
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: this disk flew around the air base in a huge
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: arc at very high speed, and it was gone out
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: of sight before he could summon the corporal of the Guard,
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: and so a statement was written up for Project blue Book.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: He confirmed the unusual droning sound, and the corporal of
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: the Guard said that he was actually lying awake in
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: his bunk when he heard the drone, and like Dimante,
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: he could not associate with any jet aircraft. And it
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: was Demante who ran into the room and said that
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: this object, whatever it was, was actually round, and the
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: corporal of the Guard ran outside, but whatever it was,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: it had already gone. But he did see it from
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: a distance of about two miles as it moved off,
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: but at that point he could not see its shape.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: So this was a pretty interesting case. And as you
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: can see from this drawing, what's very interesting is the
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: very first pass this object made was straight down the
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: main runway of the Laurenberg Maxton Air Force Base. And
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: they believed that this was absolutely a classic flying saucer,
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: not only because of its shape, but they saw these
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: lights in a circular pattern. The next case I want
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: to talk about is quite brief. This occurred on December
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: twenty second, nineteen fifty two. The last one of the year,
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: and this occurred in Banning, California. The main witness is
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: an instrument technician who was driving his car at around
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: seven thirty p m. Not far from an air Force
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: base and stopped to watch as a saucer shaped object
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: darted upwards from left to right, then leveled off at
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: a high rate of speed. He said it was glowing white.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: But what was very interesting. He watched this thing roll
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: over tumbling at least three times, and each time he
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: could see that one side of this object was bright red.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: And this object began to move upwards. He watched it
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: for about fifteen minutes until it finally rised up so
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: high it appeared to be a starlike object, and then
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: moved higher, higher up until it disappeared. So obviously your
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: classic flying saucer. The next case I'd like to talk
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 1: about occurred just a few days later. This was on
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: January fir fourth, nineteen fifty three, and this occurred in
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: o Galley, Florida. The witness is anonymous. It's a lady,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: and she said that she cited an object that resembled
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 1: the Davis aircraft wing. She did not see any fuselage.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: This was quite low She's estimated it was about five
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: hundred feet or less in altitude and flew very fast,
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: about five hundred miles per hour. She saw this object
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: only very briefly for two to three seconds, as it
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: approached from a north northwest direction in a slight turn
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 1: and departed to the south southwest. But she heard no
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: sound and she actually was able to see it because
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: the lights from the Neon signs at the west Chest
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: Motor Court actually illuminated the lower surface of this object,
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: and the witness says that she saw at least four
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: and not more than ten blue lights on the lower
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: surface as you can see on this drawing. So this
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: was a very clear night. There was no wind, and
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: she says the witness that this object was within two
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty to three hundred and fifty feet of her,
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: very close as it passed overhead. This next case is
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: very interesting because there was numerous witnesses, all of whom
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: are very familiar with aircraft. This occurred just two days
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: later on January sixth, nineteen fifty three, at Dallas Fort Worth, Texas.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: Wiley Moore was a towerman at love Field, and he
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: drew a sketch of what he saw. He said this
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: object flew ad about two thousand feet fire five minutes
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: and finally moved straight upwards at one hundreds of miles
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: per hour. There was another witness, Linwood Martin, an amateur astronomer,
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: who viewed it through a telescope, and he said that
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: it had swept back wings with a red glow towards
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: the front. The wings were blue and the center white.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: It moved forward and backward and seemed to be going
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: higher all the time. There was another witness, a mister Fetchenbach,
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: who was an air traffic controller, who viewed it through
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: binoculars and said that this object seemed to hover east
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: of the field before moving off, And in fact, as
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: he watched it, a number of pilots gathered in the
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: control tower and watched it, and they all agreed that
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: this object at one point was moving about two thousand
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: miles per hour and moved upward to an estimated they
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 1: think one hundred one thousand feet in altitude before disappearing
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: into the distance. So clearly not a normal aircraft. We
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: had nothing that could go that high and then disappear
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: up into outer space. Next case I'd like to talk
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: about occurred that same year, on April twenty third, nineteen
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: fifty three, in Addison, New York. The main witness is
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: a twenty nine year old forest ranger, and he was
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: in the habit of looking out of his window to
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: check for forest fires, and looking out his window he
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: saw a glowing lens shaped object darting across the sky.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: So he actually drew this object for Project Blue Book investigators,
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 1: and he described it as lens shaped. He said it
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: was highly polished silver and so bright that it lit
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: up the ground below it. It moved so quickly that
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 1: it left what appeared to be a black line trailing
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: behind it, and it quickly disappeared into the clouds to
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: the west and was gone. This next case, the location
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: is unknown. It's not reported, but occurred on June twenty fourth,
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: nineteen fifty three, and was reported to Project Blue Book
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: by weather observer Richard A. Hall, who made a sworn statement.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: And he was actually watching a balloon through a theodolite.
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: This is a telescope which is used to track objects
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: and observers can triangulate an object and estimate its size
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: and altitude. So he's watching this balloon through the theodolite
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: when the balloon actually burst, and where this balloon was
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: he now saw a glowing red, somewhat triangular shaped object,
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 1: which he said was at least eight feet wide, so
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: quite small. But it was the movement that really impressed him,
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: as he said, it was making and I quote slow
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: circular movements such as a loop, and as you can
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: see from this drawing, these are movements that are absolutely unconventional,
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: and according to Richard A. Hall, this object picked up
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: speed and gained in altitude until again it looked like
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: just a little dot in the sky and disappeared upwards.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: So what this was I don't know, but what clearly
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: wasn't a weather balloon. And the witness, Richard A. Hall,
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: absolutely does not believe that this was a balloon because
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 1: he was tracking one through a theodolite when this balloon
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: actually burst, and in its place was this object. So
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: perhaps it was investigating the balloon. I don't know, but
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: it's a very interesting case. Here's an equally interesting case
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: which occurred at Point Lagou in southern California on December sixteenth,
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: nineteen fifty three. This is, of course a very active
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: area in the Santa Catalina Channel and the flight crew
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: of a Navy Super Constellation WV two aircraft were doing
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 1: a test fight and had just reached twenty thousand feet
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 1: when someone said, look out, there's a flying saucer. And
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: as one of the witnesses says, and I quote, I
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: looked out the windshield towards where Roy was pointing, and
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 1: I saw some sort of an object at approximately the
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: altitude we were flying. So they tried to overtake this object,
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: but this object easily out distanced them, and all the
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: crew members made official statements testifying to this sighting, and
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: the pilot himself, after landing, made a sketch which he
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: provided to invent instigators, And it turns out the next
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 1: day they discovered that there were numerous other witnesses in
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: the area who saw it, some from the ground, and
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: they were using actually binoculars, So this was a very
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 1: well verified multi witness sighting. The next case I'd like
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 1: to talk about occurred on November sixth, nineteen fifty four,
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: one year later in Newcastle, Delaware, and again this involved
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 1: two military witnesses US Army corporals by the names of
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: James Schmau and Robert G. Hoffman. They were driving at
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: eight thirty pm in the evening, and I will just
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: quote James Schmau directly, as he says, first they saw
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 1: these objects, and as Schmau says, I told Bob to
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: pull over because the objects were definitely foreign to me.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: I rolled the window down and watched the objects cross
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: the road slowly. The objects stopped and changed position. They
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 1: were in a trail formation and changed side to side
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: and continued this way until out of sight. Robert Hoffmann
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: also gave a statement, and as he says, and I quote,
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: we first saw them coming from the left across the highway,
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: and we couldn't decide what they were. We stopped and
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: watched them from the car while they went on to
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: fade out of sight. They appeared as a brilliant glow
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: with a haze of light below center and blue lights
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: on the perimeter. So they thought the sighting was over,
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 1: but it wasn't, because moments later the objects reappeared and
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: started circling behind them, then back in front, and then
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 1: stopped and shot up super fast, actually sending down a
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 1: beam of light which struck the ground. Both men could
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: hear at this time a low drone throb and as
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: Robert Hoffman says, I could almost feel vibrations in the ground.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: They were impressed enough where they submitted a report to
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: Project Blue Book, who refused to label the case unidentified
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: and called it possible aircraft. This again shows Blue Book
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: their reluctance to label anything unidentified, even though these two
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 1: officers were trained and saw this object from very close up.
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: This next case took place on December sixth, nineteen fifty four,
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: actually over a period of two days. This was in Sheboygan, Michigan.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: The witnesses anonymous. She was in her home when she
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 1: saw UFO, but it was the next evening when she
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 1: saw this saucer shaped object hovering about eight feet above
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: a lake off Orchard Beach. She watched it for nearly
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 1: ten minutes, she says, as it darted back and forth,
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 1: much faster than a jet, and she at this point
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 1: could see that it had two tiers of square windows
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 1: along its side. Sauch was going so brightly it was
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: hard to look at. As she watched it, it rose
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: straight up and disappeared, and she reported it to Project
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: blue Buck all right next year nineteen fifty five February fifteen.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 1: This is at Green City, Missouri, The witness is anonymous.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: He was traveling east on Highway sixteen, about four miles
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 1: west of the town of Green City. It was a
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 1: clear day, there was little wind, the sun was very bright,
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: and he was approaching this flat stretch of road when
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 1: he noticed through the driver's side window a large metallic
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: bit was quite low, about five hundred feet above the
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: ground and he estimates about one mile away. And looking
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 1: at it, he saw that this was a disc about
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: one hundred feet in diameter twelve feet in thickness, and
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 1: had what appeared to be several windows or portholes. He
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: watched it, but did not stop to observe this object,
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: and lost sight of it as the road dipped. He
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: proceeded to the town of Green City and reported to
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 1: the editor of the local paper, who did report it
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 1: to the Air Force. An investigating team came over and
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: interviewed the witness and had him sketch the UFO. So
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 1: they went to this area but found no evidence of
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: this object. But as you can see from the drawing,
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: it's quite unusual. The next case I'd like to talk
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: about occurred on June twentieth, nineteen fifty five, just a
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: short time later, and This was over Dallas, Texas, and
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: the witness in this case was Captain Richard S. Berry
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: of the US Marine Corps, who actually did post graduate
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 1: work at Duke University and was very familiar with the
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: latest aircraft, and he told Air Force investigators that what
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: he saw was very strange. He was out with his neighbor,
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: a mister Stewart, when they saw a dull red object
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: glowing in the sky, and as they watched it started
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: changing colors to white, yellow and dropping in altitude. And
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: then they watched this object hover and then move faster
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 1: than any jet could across the sky, and it stopped
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: and hovered again. So he was very much depressed. So
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: Captain Barry ran inside to get the binoculars and observed
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: this object. Through the binoculars could now see that this
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 1: was a round, flat object at this point was going red.
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: He saw three lights alongside the edge. His object moved
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: off and a few minutes later appeared again, this time
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 1: showing only a line of lights. It left and returned
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: a third time, and this time he again saw the
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 1: shape of the object and the line of lights as
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 1: it darted away for good. And he made a report
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 1: for Project Blue Book and provided a description and a
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 1: sketch of this object, which, as you can see, is
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 1: quite unusual. It was just one month later, on July
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: twenty five, nineteen fifty five, over Patterson, New Jersey, when
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 1: nineteen year old Daniel Kay was sitting in a local
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: park and he saw what he described as a peculiar object,
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: gray metallic shaped like a cylinder, with a circular ring
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: running horizontally around the center. And according to Daniel, this
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: ring had a rotating light on it, and as he watched,
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 1: it moved off to the west until it was just
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 1: a dot in the sky. Remained there for about ten minutes.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: He says that there were other witnesses in the park
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 1: who also saw it, and he reported it to Project
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 1: Bluebook and provided this sketch that you see here of
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 1: this object. All right, more cases to share. This next
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: one occurred on August first, nineteen fifty five, over Willoughby, Ohio.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: The main witness is mister Schennemann, and he was driving
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: up to his house when he saw this strange saucer
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: shaped object drop down and it moved so fast he
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: thought at first it was a plane about to crash
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: into his home and his wife and children saw it,
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: and they thought the same thing, but instead this object
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: was not a plane. It stopped and huved about sixty
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: feet over their garage, and they could now see that
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: this was a disc about ninety feet across. It had
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: bright red and green lights. They quickly switched off, at
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: which point they could see a domed body with a long,
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 1: flat dome in profile that had many tiny points of
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: lights on it, and there was a sound it emitted,
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 1: which the witnesses compared to the hum of an electric fan.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: And as they watched, this ship quickly darted over to
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 1: a nearby a clump of woods, where it paused for
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 1: another five minutes before drifting away at leisurely speed. So
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 1: it was about a year later when Air Force Project
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 1: Blue Book agents found out about this case, and by
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 1: this point it had already been investigated by other researchers,
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 1: Donald Kehoe, and they knew about this case, and they
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 1: wrote that in view of the fact that mister and
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: missus Sheeneman repeated almost exactly the story submitted in the
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 1: UFO case Dosier, it appears that mister Sheenneman is familiar
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 1: with no types of aircraft and that he's still seemed frightened.
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: Almost a year after his sighting, the undersigned investigator was
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 1: left with the impression that the witness is sincere and truthful,
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: and that he did see something unusual and unknown all right.
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: The next case December twenty first, nineteen fifty five. This
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 1: one occurred over Washburn, Maine, and the main witness is
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 1: ROBERTA V. Jacobs, who, she says, she saw this object,
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: which was shaped very much like a flying fried egg,
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: she described as a disc with a cupola, and she
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 1: watched it as it descended out of the sky to
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 1: a position just above the roof of a snow covered barn.
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: She was struck by the gold appearance of this object's surface,
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: which she said was indescribably beautiful. She was actually getting
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 1: ready to go to bed when the whole farmyard lit up,
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 1: which caused her to look out the window and see
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 1: this quote saucer like craft. It was revolving at high
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 1: speed and giving off a brilliant light, and at this point,
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: she said, strange sensations came over her. She felt nauseated
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: and had the distinct impression that this object was occupied
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: and that the occupants inside this object knew she was
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 1: looking out the window and were able to read her mind.
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: Shortly thereafter, this object streaked silently away, and she felt
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 1: that this object moved to way when the thought crossed
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: her mind to telephone for help. So it's a brief sighting,
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: but very close up of a classic disc. All right
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: moving along. The next year, May sixth, nineteen fifty six,
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 1: this occurred over Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The main witness is
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 1: a lieutenant an engineer from Tinker Air Force Base, and
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 1: he observed an object which he said was shaped very
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 1: much like a soup bowl or a teacup. He said
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 1: it was intensely bright, orange colored and rimmed by little
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: lights that were far too numerous to actually count. He
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 1: said it was stationary in the sky when he first
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 1: saw it, but then it quickly darted rapidly to the
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 1: north in a strange zigzag motion. He could hear no sound,
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 1: and he said this object was far brighter than any
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: other object in the sky. He was able to use
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 1: binoculars and so that this object was very sharply defined.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 1: He watched it for about ten minutes from his house,
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 1: and as it started to move away, he actually jumped
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 1: into his car and followed it and he reported it
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 1: to Blue Book officers, and later other witnesses were located.
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 1: So again, this is a very strange case which does
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 1: not match any conventional aircraft and shows those weird slight
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 1: variations that we see in a lot of these cases.
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 1: All right. June twenty seventh, nineteen fifty six, over Jamestown, Ohio,
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 1: a family of four was drawn outside of their home
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 1: around two twenty five in the afternoon when they saw
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 1: a craft rising from the trees near their home. They
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: had the impression this object was actually landed. They did
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: not see it on the ground, but it came up
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 1: out of the trees and hovered at treetop level. It
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: was quite close and was totally silent. They said it
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 1: was round about the size of a small car, with
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: a canopy or a bulge on top. And as they watched,
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 1: this craft moved very quickly in a steep climb upwards,
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 1: then went vertically straight upwards and was gone in seconds.
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 1: One of the children said it looked quote like a button.
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 1: So I like this case because it's a solid object
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 1: seen in daylight, very close up, and moved in a
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 1: way that is absolutely not attributable to any known aircraft.
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 1: Just two or three months later, on September two, nineteen
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 1: fifty six, a night watchman from Dayton, Ohio had a
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 1: very interesting sighting. He was at nineteen years old and
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 1: also a college student, and he reported his sighting to
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 1: the Air Air Force. And I'd just liked to quote
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 1: him directly, as this witness says, and I quote I
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 1: first saw the screen object while making my last round
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 1: at four thirty a m. As night watchmen at the
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 1: Dayton Country Club. It seemed to be hovering above the ground,
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 1: moving slowly towards the clubhouse where I was standing. I
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 1: flashed my five cell flashlight on the object when it
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 1: was on the far end of the grounds, but nothing happened.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 1: Later I went out on the grounds to see what
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: was happening. I heard or smelled nothing. As the wind
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 1: was blowing towards the object was moving towards the house
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 1: at a very slow speed. It was about fifteen to
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: twenty feet wide and eight to ten feet thick and
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 1: was in oval shape. This object came to one hundred
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 1: and fifty feet or less of me. When I flashed
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 1: my light at it again. It disappeared from sight in
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 1: an instant without moving away. We have a dog in
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 1: the stable just to the right of where I spotted
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 1: this object that was howling something terrible. Normally, this dog
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 1: is well behaved and doesn't bark much, I might say.
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 1: After this thing was as close to me as it was,
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: I was very frightened. The object lit everything around it
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 1: and was about five to six feet above the ground.
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 1: So that's low, very close and clearly unexplained. All right,
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 1: Just a few more cases. On September fifteenth, nineteen fifty six,
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 1: a couple was driving in the early morning upon near Salem, Indiana,
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 1: when they came upon a ufo. As the woman says,
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 1: and I quote, at first, I was too startled to
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: speak at all. I stared, unable to believe my eyes,
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 1: thinking I must be mistaken. But no, there it was.
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 1: So I stammered to my husband, look out there, quick,
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: do you see what I think I see? He took
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 1: one look and brought the car to a stop. We
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 1: sat there on the hilltop and stared. I said, amazed,
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 1: why it's a flying saucer, isn't it? And my husband,
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 1: was very conservative, answered well, it certainly appears to be
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: something like that. So they watched this in absolute fascination.
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 1: They described it as looking very much like a metallic
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 1: yo yo. They saw a line which ran around the
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 1: perimeter of the object, out of which came wists of
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 1: smoke or vapor. This object undulated up and down in
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 1: sort of a wavering motion, and several cars were passing by.
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 1: They tried three times to stop other cars. Each car stopped,
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 1: took a look at the object, and the drivers of
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 1: the car sped away in fear. The couple themselves said
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 1: that they felt no fear, but were just super interested
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 1: to see that this object was so close, and they
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 1: watched it for at least five minutes when it suddenly
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 1: turned on its side in a vertical position and darted
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: away at super high speed, so fast it almost appeared
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 1: to vanish. This next case I'd like to talk about
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 1: is very interesting and quite bizarre. This occurred in Van
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 1: sur Karami in France on April fourteenth, nineteen fifty seven.
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 1: Was three pm when two women, Missus Garcin and Missus Rami,
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 1: were walking along Route D twenty four, just to the
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 1: east of Van Sir Karami, and suddenly, at about one
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 1: hundred meters from where they were standing three hundred feet
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: they saw this very strange metallic object which had landed
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 1: on the ground. They described it as dull metal in
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 1: color and cone shaped with the nose of the aparus
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 1: apparatus vertically pointed downwards. And this object seemed to be
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: maneuvering to land and at this point they heard a
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 1: deafening noise and this noise, it turned out, was actually
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 1: being made by a metal traffic sign that was being
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 1: vibrated by Apparently the presence of this object was about
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 1: five meters away from this object and was oscillating and
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 1: vibrating so violently that they feared it might actually come loose,
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 1: and they screamed in sphere and surprise, which actually alerted
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 1: a third witness, a beekeeper, who came running out in
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 1: time to see this object take off, and as it did,
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 1: it shook this sign again very violently. A police were called,
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 1: they found clear landing traces. Project blue Buck came in
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 1: and after investigating, without really any investigation, they called it
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 1: a hoax, even though there were multiple witnesses and landing traces.
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 1: Jaylen Heinek absolutely disagreed, as did other French investigators, who
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 1: believed that this case was one hundred percent genuine. It's
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 1: another example of our own government basically lying about UFOs
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 1: and trying to cover them up. Here's another very interesting
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 1: case which occurred on July thirtieth, nineteen fifty seven, in Gault, Canada.
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 1: This involved a young teenager by the name of Jack Stevens,
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 1: who at ten thirty in the morning was walking with
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 1: his dog in a rural area when he saw a
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 1: star like light in the sky, and as he watched,
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 1: this light swooped down, at which point it revealed itself
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 1: to be a metallic saucer. He estimates it was about
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 1: thirty feet in diameter, chrome colored and had a row
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 1: of glowing portholes or openings. He heard a low, throbbing noise,
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 1: he said, this object glowed red and was surrounded by
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 1: a bright orange aura, and this quite frightened him, and
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 1: he was rooted to the spot. At the same time,
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 1: his dog began whining and barking and groveling, and he
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 1: watched this thing for almost forty five minutes. It was
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: some distance away, not far, a few hundred feet, and
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 1: after forty five minutes or so, this object rose up
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 1: and left, and he ran home and told his parents,
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 1: who could see that he was quite emotional about it.
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 1: And later they went to the site and reportedly there
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 1: were some very interesting marks in the ground. There appeared
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 1: to be several three towed footprints on the ground. So
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 1: this case caused quite a sensation. It was published in
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 1: newspapers and was never explained. The next case I'd like
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 1: to talk about occurred exactly one month later. Over Odessa, Texas.
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 1: On August thirtieth, nineteen fifty seven, five kids were out
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 1: playing one afternoon and one of the children, a twelve
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: year old, noticed a strange object stationery in the sky,
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 1: almost directly overhead. And the kids were amazed and curious
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 1: because it was unlike anything they'd ever seen before. They
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 1: became very excited and they dashed inside and demanded that
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 1: the grown ups immediately go outside to see this object.
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 1: And at first the pleas of the youngsters were brushed
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: aside with the remarks that the object was probably a
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 1: weather balloon and not worth the trouble. So the children
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 1: ran back outside this object was still there. The twelve
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 1: year old discussed the object with his thirteen year old
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 1: sister and they thought it was unexplainable. Although they were
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 1: young and didn't know that much, they were absolutely impressed.
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 1: The other kids were about age seven and ten and
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 1: didn't really know enough to be good witnesses, but the
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 1: twelve year old said that this thing looked exactly like
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 1: a flying saucer, even though they did not know what
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 1: applying saucer even looked like. But the girl never forgot
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 1: that sighting and never saw anything like it again, And
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: it was many years later that she wrote to doctor
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 1: Jay Allen Heinek, and she wanted to share her encounter,
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 1: so she told doctor Heinik of Project Blue Book at
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 1: that time that there was only a slight haze in
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 1: this error. At that time, the object was quite close,
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: it appeared to be metallic. It never moved while it
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: was being observed, and it eventually blended back into the
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 1: sky as the sun dipped below the horizon. So they
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 1: watched it for quite some time, and the parents never
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 1: came out and saw it. Just goes to show you
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 1: should listen to your kids when they say there's a
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 1: UFO hovering outside. The next case I'd like to talk
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 1: about occurred on October seventh, nineteen fifty seven, outside of
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles, California, off the Angelus Crest Highway. This is
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 1: a pretty remote area near the National Forest. There. A
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 1: man and a woman were driving when they saw a
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 1: cylindrical shaped object, which they estimate was about three thousand
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 1: feet high. And they watched this object as it moved
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 1: across the sky for about ten minutes until it disappeared,
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 1: and he says that quote, we were in a state
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 1: of shock at what we were seeing. To keep in
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 1: an accurate account. The size was close to one thousand
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 1: feet or maybe eight or nine hundred feet. The shape
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 1: was cylindrical and came to a point at the bow.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 1: At the stem was the most curious of all, a
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 1: glowing ball above the hull, which appeared to have no
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 1: connecting point, which you can see from the drawing that
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 1: they provided. This ball of light pulsated about sixty times
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 1: a minute, so once every second, and it was between
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 1: light blue and white. They said it went to white
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 1: as it pulsed. But this object had port lights or windows,
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 1: they weren't sure. But they were round and large, and
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 1: as the witness says, I didn't count them, but I
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: estimated fifteen or more, and they were very large. Whatever
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 1: they were, the subject was close that they heard what
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 1: they thought was a slight humming noise, but they were
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 1: very impressed because there was no flames, no engine that
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 1: they could see, no wings, no visible people, and was
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 1: almost totally silent. All right. The next case I'd like
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 1: to talk about just a few more. This one occurred
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 1: on November seventh, nineteen fifty seven, over Montville, Ohio. The
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 1: main witness is Olden More. He was driving at night
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 1: when he saw what he first thought was a shooting star,
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 1: until suddenly it split into two pieces. One piece went
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 1: straight up and the other swooped down towards him, revealing
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 1: itself to be a saucer. And he watched his object
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 1: came lower and lower, appearing to come right towards him.
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 1: He stopped his car and watched this thing hover about
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 1: two hundred feet overhead, and then it came in for
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 1: a landing in the field about five hundred feet away,
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 1: as Olden Moore says, and I quote, I stood by
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 1: the car watching the thing for some fifteen minutes before
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 1: I started to walk towards it. So he left his
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 1: car and walked about three hundred feet towards it till
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 1: he approached within two hundred feet, close enough that he
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 1: could see that this was in fact a metallic saucer.
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 1: Was surrounded by this haze or the sort of mist.
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 1: He said. It was bright, it looked like a mirror
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 1: like chrome, and it was standing on these tiny little legs.
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 1: He was concerned. He'd decided it was too dangerous to
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 1: approach any closer, but realizing how strange this was, he
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 1: decided to quickly jump back into his car and drive
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 1: the short distance home to get his wife so he
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 1: could see it, But upon returning, the object was gone.
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 1: They did report it to investigators, who questioned people in
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 1: the area and found thought that there were electromagnetic disturbances.
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 1: One lady at the time of this sighting in the
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 1: area was trying to watch TV, and she says every
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 1: channel was completely distorted and she ended up turning off
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 1: the TV in disgust and just went to bed. So
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 1: it's a really good case. I mean, this thing actually
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 1: came in for a landing. He saw it within two
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 1: hundred feet and clearly not explainable. And the last case
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 1: I'd like to talk about occurred on December sixteenth, nineteen
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 1: fifty seven, over Long Island, New York, to a lady
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 1: by the name of missus Starr. She woke up late
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 1: one evening when light flooded her bedroom, and looking out
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 1: her window, she was shocked to see a thirty foot
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 1: long gray craft with portholes hovering five feet above the
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 1: ground right outside her window. Outside of this object were
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 1: two two figures walking around. They were very strange looking,
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 1: with uniforms and helmets and weird heads. They seem to
• 1:42:07
  Speaker 1: be carrying trays. She watched a third figure come out
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 1: of the object. She watched this for about five minutes,
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 1: at which point the figures entered the object, which rose
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 1: slowly upwards and darted away. No noise was heard at
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 1: any point, so again another very unusual case, as you
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 1: can see from her drawings. So honestly, I could list
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 1: hundreds upon hundreds of other cases, but you get the
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 1: idea contact is very widespread. It's occurring all over the world.
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 1: These cases are just from nineteen forty seven to nineteen
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 1: fifty seven, a ten year period, and as you see
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 1: from all these drawings, there is quite a bit of
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 1: variation of these objects, and yet at the same time,
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 1: many of these descriptions are almost exactly the same. So
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 1: this shows that the reports are widespread. It's clear our
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 1: own government is lying through their teeth about them. But
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 1: I think the most important takeaway is that these are real.
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 1: UFOs are real. It's clear people are seeing solid structured
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 1: objects that are not from here. All right. That's it,
• 1:43:27
  Speaker 1: some fifty cases evolving eyewitness drawings of UFOs, And again,
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 1: as you can see, there is a dazzling array of
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 1: different types of craft being cited, of different sizes and
• 1:43:41
  Speaker 1: shapes and behavior and maneuverability and so forth being cited
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 1: all across the world. Again, this is just from nineteen
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 1: forty seven to nineteen fifty seven alone, a very small
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 1: representative sample of the actual number of cases, but enough
• 1:43:59
  Speaker 1: to show that contact is truly widespread, much more common
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 1: than people realize, happening all over the world, and of
• 1:44:07
  Speaker 1: course still happening to the present day. And I think
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 1: these cases also show how our government has really mishandled
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 1: the UFO phenomena. They had every opportunity to be truthful
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 1: and transparent and forthcoming, and they have not been. So
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 1: I really wanted to do this episode today to let
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 1: people know exactly what is going on behind the scenes.
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 1: Our government has known for eighty years that this is
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 1: a real phenomena, and despite even today their unwillingness to
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 1: call this extraterrestrial I think they know full well exactly
• 1:44:47
  Speaker 1: what's going on here. So that's why I want to
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 1: do this episode for you today. I truly appreciate you watching,
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 1: so thank you very much for that. And until next time,
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 1: keep searching for answers, keep searching for the truth, and
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 1: most importantly, keep having fun.
