Latest / UFOS & PARANORMAL WITH PRESTON DENNETT / Just When You Think You've Heard Everything: Eight Incredibly Bizarre UFO Encounters
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Hello everybody. My name is Preston Dennett, and welcome to
- 0:03Speaker 1: a new episode of UFOs and the Paranormal. Thank you
- 0:06Speaker 1: so much for joining me. I truly appreciate it. I'm
- 0:09Speaker 1: going to be doing something a little bit different today.
- 0:13Speaker 1: Although I've been in this field of ufology for about
- 0:17Speaker 1: four decades now, I'm still running across cases that really
- 0:21Speaker 1: surprise me. There's a lot of high strangeness and weirdness
- 0:25Speaker 1: in this field. We all know that, but every now
- 0:28Speaker 1: and then I run across a case that really makes
- 0:30Speaker 1: me wonder what the heck is going on. So that's
- 0:34Speaker 1: the theme of today's episode, which I call just when
- 0:38Speaker 1: you think you've heard everything, eight incredibly bizarre UFO encounters.
- 0:45Speaker 1: I think that these kinds of cases show that we
- 0:47Speaker 1: still have a lot to learn about the extratrustrial presence
- 0:51Speaker 1: on our planet and extraterrustrials themselves. I've got eight cases
- 0:56Speaker 1: for you today. I'm guessing you probably haven't heard at
- 1:00Speaker 1: least of most of these, and I think you'll find
- 1:02Speaker 1: them quite fascinating. I've got cases from across the world,
- 1:08Speaker 1: all two cases from outside of the United States, and
- 1:10Speaker 1: six cases from within the United States. These locations include Brazil, Italy, Illinois, Louisiana.
- 1:21Speaker 1: I've got two cases from Missouri, also Ohio and Texas.
- 1:28Speaker 1: These include all kinds of encountersts by the way, close
- 1:32Speaker 1: encounters of the first, second, and third kind. So we
- 1:35Speaker 1: see sightings, we see cases that affect the environment in
- 1:38Speaker 1: some way, humanoids and so forth. So let's just get
- 1:43Speaker 1: started with the first case. This one I found quite moving.
- 1:47Speaker 1: It's a very old case which occurred during a very
- 1:51Speaker 1: dark period of United States history, and yet this case
- 1:56Speaker 1: literally shines a light on that period. And I call
- 2:01Speaker 1: this case UFO grants slaves their freedom. This one occurred
- 2:07Speaker 1: at some point in the mid eighteen fifties. We don't
- 2:11Speaker 1: have the exact date. It occurred in Columbus Township in Missouri,
- 2:16Speaker 1: and I think you'll find it in a very unusual case.
- 2:19Speaker 1: This very unusual and bizarre case was first published in
- 2:23Speaker 1: nineteen thirty five in the book Folk Tales of Missouri
- 2:27Speaker 1: by Earl Augustus Collins under the chapter the Mystery Star.
- 2:32Speaker 1: It is almost impossible to verify the sources, as it
- 2:36Speaker 1: apparently comes from an oral tradition among former slaves. But
- 2:40Speaker 1: as Earl Collins writes of the stories in his book Quote.
- 2:44Speaker 1: Many of these tales were told for exact truth by
- 2:48Speaker 1: their narrators. The story was submitted to Muffon by researcher
- 2:53Speaker 1: Ted Phillips Junior, and was published in the May nineteen
- 2:56Speaker 1: seventy issue of the Mufon Journal and Ted Phillips w rights.
- 3:00Speaker 1: It is not necessarily to be considered a valdu full report,
- 3:03Speaker 1: but it is a very interesting story, and I certainly
- 3:07Speaker 1: agree with that. The mean witness is mister Davidson, who
- 3:10Speaker 1: had moved from Kentucky to a large farm in the
- 3:13Speaker 1: Columbus Township area of Missouri. He owned a large group
- 3:17Speaker 1: of slaves who tended his farm, and according to the
- 3:20Speaker 1: report on this case, mister Davidson was very kind to
- 3:24Speaker 1: his slaves, never harsh to them, and they themselves felt
- 3:27Speaker 1: great affection for mister Davidson and worked hard to please him.
- 3:32Speaker 1: Mister Davidson and his family were well respected in the community.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Was one evening, after all the farm chores had been
- 3:39Speaker 1: completed and the slaves had finished singing songs outside their
- 3:42Speaker 1: cabins and had gone to bed. The Davidson family then
- 3:46Speaker 1: saw quote a strange, bright star which hung in the sky,
- 3:51Speaker 1: now nothing like it had been seen before, and quote.
- 3:54Speaker 1: Everyone was curious about its strange appearance, but unable to
- 3:59Speaker 1: explain it, the family just forgot about it and went
- 4:01Speaker 1: to bed. The next day, work on the farm continued
- 4:04Speaker 1: as normal, and when evening arrived and the Davidson family
- 4:08Speaker 1: were eating dinner, this mystery star appeared again. The young
- 4:13Speaker 1: members of the family were very excited about it. It
- 4:16Speaker 1: was really brilliantly bright, and they remarked that it seemed
- 4:19Speaker 1: closer than the night before. In his earl Collins writes,
- 4:23Speaker 1: night after night the star appeared, growing brighter and brighter
- 4:27Speaker 1: each evening. Its presence was no longer ignored during the day,
- 4:31Speaker 1: and many references were made to its appearance and brilliancy
- 4:35Speaker 1: during the day's conversations. Everyone but mister Davidson talked much
- 4:40Speaker 1: of its presence. At first, he appeared to have little
- 4:43Speaker 1: interest in the children's reference to the star, but later
- 4:46Speaker 1: could be noticed paying the utmost attention whenever it was
- 4:50Speaker 1: referred to. So each night, the quote mystery star appeared
- 4:55Speaker 1: closer and brighter, and soon it was so close and
- 4:59Speaker 1: bright that everyone at the farm became frightened by it.
- 5:02Speaker 1: In fact, the children stayed indoors and the slaves began
- 5:06Speaker 1: praying about it, and as Earl Colin's rights, the elder
- 5:10Speaker 1: folk were silent. Mister Davidson went about the day's work
- 5:13Speaker 1: silently and gloomily. He was nervous and fidgety. One evening,
- 5:18Speaker 1: the star seemed to be closer than ever. It seemed
- 5:22Speaker 1: to hang between the old log barn and the straw
- 5:24Speaker 1: covered shed near the lower end of the barn lot
- 5:27Speaker 1: that served as a cowshed. The bones and prayers from
- 5:30Speaker 1: the slave quarters had changed to screams of terror. Mister
- 5:34Speaker 1: Davidson realized that he had to take some kind of action,
- 5:38Speaker 1: and events were now about to come to a stunning climax.
- 5:42Speaker 1: As Earl Collin's writes, mister Davidson called his wife and
- 5:46Speaker 1: children to him and kissed each one of them. Then,
- 5:49Speaker 1: putting on his coats and boots, he bade them remain
- 5:52Speaker 1: indoors while he went out to investigate. In a few moments,
- 5:56Speaker 1: he returned, pale and haggard. His eyes seemed to stare
- 6:00Speaker 1: straight ahead without seeing. He made no answer to the
- 6:03Speaker 1: numerous questions asked, but went directly to bed. The star
- 6:08Speaker 1: was gone. The next morning, after the family had eaten
- 6:11Speaker 1: their breakfast, in silence, mister Davidson called all of his
- 6:15Speaker 1: slaves around him and presented each with a written statement
- 6:19Speaker 1: signed by himself, giving them their freedom. No one has
- 6:23Speaker 1: ever seen the Strange Star again, nor has anyone ever
- 6:27Speaker 1: known what Davidson saw when he went forth that night
- 6:30Speaker 1: to meet his great adventure with the mystery Star. Me
- 6:35Speaker 1: that case has the ring of authenticity. Yes, it is
- 6:38Speaker 1: quite unusual. It's almost impossible to verify, but some of
- 6:42Speaker 1: the elements to it really make me feel like it's
- 6:45Speaker 1: a genuine case. Because we know that contactees are often
- 6:49Speaker 1: warned about the dangers of greed and corruption, prejudice in society,
- 6:55Speaker 1: division and hate, and this case really speaks to that.
- 6:59Speaker 1: I really wonder what mister Davidson heard or how he
- 7:04Speaker 1: interacted with this mystery Star, if he had direct contact
- 7:10Speaker 1: with the UFO occupants, because it certainly sounds like it,
- 7:14Speaker 1: and it's absolutely a fascinating event, and I certainly hope
- 7:18Speaker 1: it's true, because wow, amazing. I'm glad that period of
- 7:22Speaker 1: United States history is over all. Right now, let's move
- 7:26Speaker 1: to the next case, which I found also really fascinating.
- 7:30Speaker 1: I think this is a perfect example of what UFO
- 7:34Speaker 1: researchers call a display, but it's also got some unusual
- 7:38Speaker 1: elements to it that really made me want to include it.
- 7:41Speaker 1: I call this one I felt I had turned to stone.
- 7:45Speaker 1: This occurred on October seventeenth, nineteen forty four, in Milan, Italy.
- 7:51Speaker 1: In fact, in the heart of the city. There is
- 7:55Speaker 1: only one witness was come forward, though it is a
- 7:59Speaker 1: multiple in this case. The eyewitness's testimony is just so detailed,
- 8:05Speaker 1: and it's how it affected him really that made me
- 8:08Speaker 1: want to include this account. This case was printed in
- 8:11Speaker 1: the Italian magazine Centro Unico Nazianal and comes from first
- 8:16Speaker 1: ten witness Giacchino Robato, who at the time of his
- 8:20Speaker 1: sighting was on a special assignment against the Nazis during
- 8:23Speaker 1: World War II. It took him decades to come forward
- 8:26Speaker 1: with his story. It was October nineteen forty four, and
- 8:30Speaker 1: Giacchino was in downtown Milan, near the center of the city,
- 8:34Speaker 1: at the well known fiasal Loreto. As the witness says,
- 8:39Speaker 1: now I find the courage to write to you. I
- 8:41Speaker 1: have kept in my mind for twenty four years the
- 8:44Speaker 1: thing I saw in nineteen forty four. I shall tell
- 8:48Speaker 1: you what I saw for I remember it as though
- 8:50Speaker 1: it were yesterday, and I shall never forget it again.
- 8:54Speaker 1: This case is a remarkable example of a UFO display
- 8:57Speaker 1: of a craft appearing during war time. The encounter occurred
- 9:01Speaker 1: on the afternoon of October seventeenth, nineteen forty four, which,
- 9:06Speaker 1: perhaps coincidentally, perhaps not, was the very beginning of the
- 9:10Speaker 1: famous Battle of late when General MacArthur commanded the U. S.
- 9:14Speaker 1: Army landing in the Philippines to begin the campaign to
- 9:17Speaker 1: liberate that country. And I'll just quote Giacchino directly as
- 9:23Speaker 1: he says, I was walking and approaching piazzal Loreto when
- 9:28Speaker 1: I heard people screaming. Instantly, my hand went down to
- 9:31Speaker 1: my revolver and I advanced towards the screams. I was
- 9:35Speaker 1: about one hundred meters away at the time. As I
- 9:38Speaker 1: reached the people who were screaming, more of them joined in,
- 9:42Speaker 1: and the cars and traffic all stopped. All of the
- 9:45Speaker 1: people were running, getting behind a shelter and looking up
- 9:49Speaker 1: at the sky over the piazza. Very frightened. Indeed, I
- 9:53Speaker 1: looked around quickly and did not see any danger. Then
- 9:57Speaker 1: I noticed that people were looking up at the sky.
- 10:00Speaker 1: I looked up also and when I did, I felt
- 10:03Speaker 1: I had turned into stone. I could not move. I
- 10:06Speaker 1: stood there, petrified, with my hands still on my revolver.
- 10:11Speaker 1: There it was a large disk, like a big frying
- 10:14Speaker 1: pan without a handle. I thought of copper color, and
- 10:17Speaker 1: glowing as though lights were about it. The sky was limpid.
- 10:22Speaker 1: My mind raised through all I had studied, but always
- 10:25Speaker 1: the answer was no, it isn't anything known to me.
- 10:29Speaker 1: The air alert patrol turned on the alarmed sirens. I
- 10:33Speaker 1: stood there and said, oh my god, it must be
- 10:36Speaker 1: some secret, devilish new weapon sent by the Germans. It
- 10:40Speaker 1: was all of two to three minutes or longer, but
- 10:43Speaker 1: no less that this disk stayed there, directly overhead of
- 10:47Speaker 1: the Piazzalla Loretto, about three hundred meters up from us. Then,
- 10:53Speaker 1: though it had stayed quite still over us, in a
- 10:56Speaker 1: split moment, it completely vanished from our sight. The witness
- 11:01Speaker 1: and of course all the others, were absolutely dumb struck.
- 11:05Speaker 1: The blaring sirens stopped. Giacchino stood there for another minute,
- 11:09Speaker 1: trying to process the incredible encounter, and as he says,
- 11:13Speaker 1: I could not figure out what it was I had seen.
- 11:16Speaker 1: To this day, I have not seen anything like it again.
- 11:19Speaker 1: The people came out into the open again, traffic resumed,
- 11:23Speaker 1: and I went on my way, bewildered, but never forgetting now.
- 11:28Speaker 1: Later he would become very active in UFO investigations and believes,
- 11:33Speaker 1: like many other contactes have asserted that the etes are
- 11:36Speaker 1: trying to warn us that we are on the pathway
- 11:39Speaker 1: to self destruction. As he says, the planet Earth is
- 11:43Speaker 1: heading towards certain self destruction, as many of our scientists
- 11:47Speaker 1: have recently declared, contamination, overpopulation and the like will before
- 11:53Speaker 1: long lead to the certain destruction of the human race
- 11:56Speaker 1: and its habitat. Furthermore, the danger of war is not
- 12:00Speaker 1: so remote. Indeed, we see that in recent times we
- 12:04Speaker 1: have constantly hovered on the brink of the abyss. Yet
- 12:08Speaker 1: the irreparable has been averted at the last moment, and
- 12:12Speaker 1: we owe much of this to the indirect intervention of
- 12:15Speaker 1: those extraterrestrials whose existence we wish to deny. The UFO
- 12:20Speaker 1: literature is filled with cases of UFOs that come down
- 12:23Speaker 1: and appear to be putting on a display, showing themselves intentionally,
- 12:28Speaker 1: and that's clearly what happened in this case. But this
- 12:31Speaker 1: is a particularly dramatic example, and I find the timing
- 12:35Speaker 1: of it right towards the tail end of World War
- 12:37Speaker 1: two to be particularly fascinating, and also how the witness
- 12:41Speaker 1: himself became an avid UFO researcher and talks about the
- 12:47Speaker 1: dangers of our warlike ways. I'm wondering if he perhaps
- 12:51Speaker 1: had direct contact, if this was more than just a
- 12:54Speaker 1: simple sighting. There's no direct evidence of it, but it
- 12:58Speaker 1: certainly is an interesting connecttion, to say the least, because,
- 13:01Speaker 1: as we know, that is one of the main concerns
- 13:04Speaker 1: about ETS, is our lack of spiritual progress. All right,
- 13:09Speaker 1: let's move to the next case. This one's quite lengthy
- 13:12Speaker 1: and super fascinating. What started out with a simple sighting
- 13:16Speaker 1: really escalated into a series of contacts culminating in a
- 13:20Speaker 1: CE five incident that's just off the charts. I call
- 13:24Speaker 1: this one I was chosen. This occurred back in August
- 13:29Speaker 1: of nineteen forty eight, really over a series of months
- 13:33Speaker 1: and technically years, in the very small town of Longview, Texas.
- 13:39Speaker 1: I think you'll find some fascinating case of how someone
- 13:41Speaker 1: can build a relationship with the UFO occupants. This case
- 13:46Speaker 1: comes firsthand from the primary witness, Doris Delbert Gregg, who
- 13:51Speaker 1: along with her sister Connie. Seipert published her story in
- 13:54Speaker 1: the November nineteen sixty one issue of Fate magazine in
- 13:58Speaker 1: an article titled I Am Being Watched by a UFO.
- 14:03Speaker 1: One evening in August nineteen forty eight, Doris and Connie
- 14:07Speaker 1: were outside their rural farm on Route Too outside of Longview, Texas,
- 14:11Speaker 1: with their family when they, and as it turned out,
- 14:15Speaker 1: hundreds of others, watched a fleet of UFOs putting on
- 14:18Speaker 1: a fantastic display in the night sky. For most people,
- 14:23Speaker 1: this was just a simple sighting a close encouner of
- 14:25Speaker 1: the first kind. But for Doris and Connie, it turned
- 14:29Speaker 1: out to be something much more intense. And, as Doris says,
- 14:34Speaker 1: unlike the hundreds of others who were watching that night,
- 14:36Speaker 1: I was chosen, for what reason I do not yet know,
- 14:40Speaker 1: to be put under careful observations by those shining visitors
- 14:44Speaker 1: from the unknown. As they swooped across the sky, one
- 14:47Speaker 1: great white object rapidly approached an area over the field
- 14:51Speaker 1: behind our house. There it slowed and became stationary, so
- 14:56Speaker 1: that we could observe the thing in all its shining grandeur.
- 15:00Speaker 1: I turned to my sister Connie, who was standing beside
- 15:02Speaker 1: me and exclaimed, I wonder if that thing has intelligence,
- 15:06Speaker 1: and if it is as interested in watching us as
- 15:09Speaker 1: we are in watching it. Instantly, a shaft of white
- 15:13Speaker 1: light descended from beneath the object and struck the field
- 15:16Speaker 1: one hundred yards behind our house. Then it moved towards
- 15:20Speaker 1: us until we were completely bathed in white light. My
- 15:23Speaker 1: sister and I were utterly astonished and tried to look
- 15:26Speaker 1: upward into the shaft of light, but my mother, Miss
- 15:30Speaker 1: Lonnie Williams, became frightened and turned to run into the house. Immediately,
- 15:35Speaker 1: the light went out and the great object soared away,
- 15:38Speaker 1: following the others which were rapidly disappearing across the sky.
- 15:42Speaker 1: So this widely viewed sighting caused great excitement into the town,
- 15:45Speaker 1: but perhaps the most excited were Doris and Connie, who
- 15:48Speaker 1: found themselves quote oddly fascinated by their own encounter and
- 15:53Speaker 1: hoped for another visitation, and, as Doris says, our wish
- 15:58Speaker 1: was granted quite unexpectedly. One night two weeks later, Doris
- 16:03Speaker 1: had been late in preparing supper, and by the time
- 16:05Speaker 1: she was finished, she was tired and had lost her appetite,
- 16:09Speaker 1: so she decided to just go sit on the porch
- 16:12Speaker 1: while her husband and her sister Connie ate dinner at
- 16:15Speaker 1: the table. She wandered off the porch to the front
- 16:18Speaker 1: lawn to stare at the stars and think about their
- 16:20Speaker 1: UFO and Connor. And that's when the UFO returned. As
- 16:24Speaker 1: Doris says, I was about to return to the porch
- 16:28Speaker 1: when I noticed a glowing light suddenly come into view
- 16:31Speaker 1: in the dark sky. It seemed to be approaching our
- 16:34Speaker 1: house from the northwest, moving slowly and incomplete silence. As
- 16:40Speaker 1: it descended, I could see a glowing object pulsating with light,
- 16:44Speaker 1: expanding and contracting at regular intervals. So at this point
- 16:48Speaker 1: Doris called out for her sister several times, until finally
- 16:52Speaker 1: Connie came out, asking what's the matter, and Doris pointed
- 16:56Speaker 1: to the object in the sky, and as Dora says,
- 17:00Speaker 1: I stopped short, for the light was rapidly disappearing across
- 17:04Speaker 1: the field, rising higher into the sky as it went.
- 17:07Speaker 1: We stood there staring after the thing. So both sisters
- 17:12Speaker 1: marveled at the return of the object and wondered about
- 17:14Speaker 1: its significance. Would it come again? Two weeks later it did.
- 17:19Speaker 1: It was dusk. Doris, her three year old son, Her sister, Connie,
- 17:24Speaker 1: and their mother were at her mother's farm, which was
- 17:26Speaker 1: about a quarter mile from their own. They were sitting
- 17:29Speaker 1: on a quilt outside and enjoying the solitude, and, as
- 17:33Speaker 1: Doris says, I stretched out beside my child on the quilt,
- 17:37Speaker 1: listening to my mother and sister's conversation, I was about
- 17:41Speaker 1: to fall asleep when I saw a very peculiar light
- 17:45Speaker 1: rising slowly from behind the dark outline of the trees.
- 17:49Speaker 1: I pushed myself to a sitting position and called Connie's
- 17:52Speaker 1: attention to it. We all stared at the odd light, which,
- 17:55Speaker 1: as it cleared the tree tops, became stationary, appearing to hover,
- 18:00Speaker 1: expanding and contracting at regular intervals for several seconds. Then
- 18:04Speaker 1: it began moving slowly towards us. The thing was clearly
- 18:08Speaker 1: visible against the night sky. It frightened my mother, who
- 18:12Speaker 1: ran toward the house, but my sister and I stood
- 18:14Speaker 1: our ground. Suddenly, the quiet was broken by the terrified
- 18:18Speaker 1: screams of my little boy, who had awakened and, seeing
- 18:21Speaker 1: the pulsating light, began crying in terror. We tried to
- 18:25Speaker 1: quiet the baby, and I hugged him close against me.
- 18:29Speaker 1: Look it's gone, My sister whispered. I looked, and sure
- 18:32Speaker 1: enough the night sky was empty again except for the stars.
- 18:36Speaker 1: Now at that point, immediately the phone in the house
- 18:39Speaker 1: began ringing. It turned out to be their neighbor who
- 18:41Speaker 1: had also seen the UFO and wanted to know if
- 18:44Speaker 1: they had also seen it. They of course told her yes,
- 18:47Speaker 1: and that they didn't know what it was. So this
- 18:50Speaker 1: was the third visitation in a period of weeks, and
- 18:53Speaker 1: if Doris and Connie had been fascinated before, now they
- 18:57Speaker 1: were bordering on obsession. It appeared that the uf was
- 19:00Speaker 1: showing a very personal interest in them. As Doris says,
- 19:05Speaker 1: after that night, Connie and I spent every evening sitting outdoors,
- 19:09Speaker 1: watching for the light to return, and wondering how, if
- 19:12Speaker 1: it did, we could contact it. Finally, we formed a
- 19:16Speaker 1: plan which we felt reasonably certain would work. So it
- 19:20Speaker 1: wasn't long after this that Doris had another startling visitation.
- 19:24Speaker 1: She had gone to bed one evening around one point
- 19:26Speaker 1: fifteen a m. One and a half hours later, she
- 19:30Speaker 1: was awakened by the sound of rushing wind, and she
- 19:33Speaker 1: thought at first it must be a storm coming in.
- 19:35Speaker 1: It wasn't. It was the UFO. As she rushed to
- 19:39Speaker 1: the window to shut it. She noticed that the curtains
- 19:41Speaker 1: were perfectly still, and so were all the leaves on
- 19:44Speaker 1: the shrubs outside the window. And then looking outside, she
- 19:48Speaker 1: got an incredible shock. As Doris says, the front yard
- 19:53Speaker 1: was bathed in white, phosphorescent light. I pressed my face
- 19:57Speaker 1: close against the window screen. I saw that the large,
- 20:00Speaker 1: thickly leaved magnolia tree in our yard was being twisted
- 20:04Speaker 1: and shaken violently. It seemed as though it would be
- 20:07Speaker 1: torn from the ground. I watched in astonishment. I noticed
- 20:11Speaker 1: that the eerie light was growing more intense. I left
- 20:15Speaker 1: the window and ran into Connie's room to awaken her,
- 20:18Speaker 1: and when we both rushed back, the light was gone.
- 20:21Speaker 1: The yard lay quiet and dark. Taurus knew it was
- 20:24Speaker 1: the UFO, but now that it was gone, she and
- 20:27Speaker 1: Connie sat in the kitchen and talked about their plans
- 20:30Speaker 1: to try to make contact. Connie said, the time has
- 20:34Speaker 1: come to try our plan. Tomorrow night will be prepared
- 20:37Speaker 1: and we'll find out if this glowing whatever it is
- 20:41Speaker 1: is really interested in contacting us now. They, of course,
- 20:44Speaker 1: had never heard of what we now call CE five's
- 20:47Speaker 1: or human initiated contact at that time. Nobody was talking
- 20:51Speaker 1: about such things, so when the next evening came, they
- 20:55Speaker 1: got a very powerful flashlight and drove off into an
- 20:58Speaker 1: empty field just on their farmhouse. They put a blanket
- 21:02Speaker 1: on the roof of the car and lay down on
- 21:04Speaker 1: top of it. Doris's baby lay between them. They then
- 21:08Speaker 1: began their CE five protocols. As Doris says, we'd arranged
- 21:14Speaker 1: beforehand to use the same number of flashes from our
- 21:16Speaker 1: light and space them at the same intervals as we
- 21:20Speaker 1: had noticed the strange objects had used each time we'd
- 21:23Speaker 1: seen them. We started our signals while we concentrated mentally
- 21:27Speaker 1: on establishing contact. For almost an hour, we lay there quietly,
- 21:31Speaker 1: with no sound except the occasional soft scuffling noises under
- 21:35Speaker 1: the car made by our large mongrel watchdog, who had
- 21:39Speaker 1: come out to watch us. The soft purring of our
- 21:42Speaker 1: two gray cats snuggled warmly against our legs was more
- 21:46Speaker 1: felt than heard. We took turns sending our flashing signals
- 21:50Speaker 1: towards the dark, star dotted sky while we watched and
- 21:53Speaker 1: waited for an answer. The experiment worked because suddenly the
- 21:56Speaker 1: UFO showed up overhead. They sat up and stared at
- 21:59Speaker 1: it in wonder. And Connie whispered. Now for the test,
- 22:04Speaker 1: As Doris says, I raised the flashlight and sent the
- 22:08Speaker 1: signals upward in a steady, unfaltering succession, directly at the object.
- 22:14Speaker 1: Almost immediately the light began to move in our direction.
- 22:17Speaker 1: Then it stopped and went out, then lit up again.
- 22:20Speaker 1: It did this several times, always coming closer and duplicating
- 22:24Speaker 1: exactly our signals. So Dora said, at this point, think hard,
- 22:30Speaker 1: think that we wanted to come closer. And as Doris says,
- 22:34Speaker 1: as soon as I said that, the light went out again,
- 22:37Speaker 1: But a few seconds later it reappeared much closer and larger,
- 22:42Speaker 1: almost the size of a small washtub. I signaled again,
- 22:45Speaker 1: and the light seemed to shrink and expand in the
- 22:47Speaker 1: same number of answering signals. Then it moved still closer
- 22:52Speaker 1: and became stationary again. The huge dimensions of the thing
- 22:56Speaker 1: became quite apparent to us. I was strongly affected by
- 22:59Speaker 1: the awesome spectacle, and I wasn't alone. From beneath our car,
- 23:05Speaker 1: deep throated grovels told me that our dogs saw it too,
- 23:08Speaker 1: and was alarmed. Even the cats stood stiffly humped, emitting
- 23:12Speaker 1: the little yobbling noises that cats make when they are frightened.
- 23:16Speaker 1: The baby stirred restlessly between us, so at this point
- 23:20Speaker 1: Connie also became frightened, and she gripped her sister's arm
- 23:23Speaker 1: and gasped, don't signal it anymore, Doris. But it was
- 23:27Speaker 1: too late, As Doris says, there was no need to
- 23:31Speaker 1: signal it again, for the enormous glowing shape was floating
- 23:35Speaker 1: on down towards us with the buoyancy of a gigantic bubble.
- 23:39Speaker 1: As I watched its descent and approach, I felt the
- 23:42Speaker 1: great mass of the thing a tremendous controlled force. When
- 23:48Speaker 1: it stopped again, it was not more than one hundred
- 23:50Speaker 1: yards away and probably thirty feet above the ground. We
- 23:54Speaker 1: saw a huge, undulating sphere of vibrating yellowish light that
- 23:58Speaker 1: was laced around and threw out with veins of deepest orange.
- 24:03Speaker 1: The great globular mask gave off no heat, no snell,
- 24:06Speaker 1: and no sound. It just hung there, waiting the next instant.
- 24:11Speaker 1: Our cats let out squalls of terror and fled. Our
- 24:14Speaker 1: dogs snarled furiously. I could hear him in the darkness.
- 24:18Speaker 1: As you went growling across the yard toward the house.
- 24:20Speaker 1: The monstrous light was coming closer. The baby began whimpering
- 24:24Speaker 1: in his sleep, as if he sensed something frightening. For
- 24:28Speaker 1: a split second, my sister and I exchanged looks over
- 24:31Speaker 1: the baby's tiny form, then with a quick movement, I
- 24:35Speaker 1: snatched him into my arms. We both turned and slid
- 24:38Speaker 1: feet first from the car and struck the ground, running
- 24:41Speaker 1: like crazy towards the dark bulk of the house. When
- 24:45Speaker 1: we reached the porch, we skimmed up the steps and
- 24:48Speaker 1: into the house to stand just inside the open front door,
- 24:51Speaker 1: shaking and breathless, trying to quiet my wailing baby. So
- 24:55Speaker 1: Connie peered out the door to check for the UFO
- 24:57Speaker 1: and she said it's gone. Doris spoke her head out
- 25:01Speaker 1: and verified that yes, the UFO had left. Connie asked her,
- 25:06Speaker 1: I wonder what would have happened if we'd stayed, and
- 25:09Speaker 1: Doris replied, I don't know. Both were actually surprised by
- 25:13Speaker 1: their own strong fear reaction and that of the dogs.
- 25:17Speaker 1: They speculated that the UFO had left because of their
- 25:20Speaker 1: strong fear of it. Whatever the reason, both Doris and
- 25:24Speaker 1: Connie realized that they had just run away from an
- 25:26Speaker 1: incredible opportunity. But this proved to be the end of
- 25:30Speaker 1: their attempts to make contact at least for a while,
- 25:34Speaker 1: but even more than ten years later, Doris was convinced
- 25:37Speaker 1: that the UFO occupants were still watching over them. As
- 25:41Speaker 1: Doris says, the great UFO is still watching us. I
- 25:45Speaker 1: am certain of this. On April fifteenth, nineteen sixty one,
- 25:49Speaker 1: I chanced to go out rather late in the evening
- 25:51Speaker 1: to feed my dogs, and my son, now eleven, called
- 25:55Speaker 1: my attention to a strange light which was moving in
- 25:57Speaker 1: our direction, low over the tree top. I watched as
- 26:01Speaker 1: the thing moved closer, then stopped, and for a full
- 26:04Speaker 1: minute deliberately blinked out its rhythmic signals. Then it contracted
- 26:08Speaker 1: until it seemed just to disappear. I am not at
- 26:12Speaker 1: all surprised by the reappearance of the light. This recent
- 26:15Speaker 1: sighting merely confirms my suspicions that it is still around,
- 26:20Speaker 1: watching and waiting. One month later, May thirtieth, nineteen sixty one,
- 26:24Speaker 1: Connie and Doris decided to make contact again. Just before midnight.
- 26:29Speaker 1: The two sisters and Doris's son stuggled into a large
- 26:32Speaker 1: double hammock in their front yard and began to flash
- 26:35Speaker 1: the flashlight into the sky. Almost instantly, the UFO showed
- 26:40Speaker 1: up again. As Doris says, we'd barely begun flashing our
- 26:44Speaker 1: signal light when an enormous meteor came rushing across the
- 26:48Speaker 1: sky and directly over our house, spewing flaming fragments for
- 26:52Speaker 1: miles around the earth shaking sonic boom from the meteor
- 26:56Speaker 1: so frightened my mother, who is an invalid with a
- 26:58Speaker 1: serious heart condition and lived with us. Now that we
- 27:02Speaker 1: were unable to continue our experiment. So was this a
- 27:06Speaker 1: meteor or a UFO? They're not sure, but Doras says
- 27:10Speaker 1: that she hopes to try again to attempt making contact,
- 27:13Speaker 1: But whether or not she did remains a mystery, because
- 27:16Speaker 1: that appears to be the end of her story, but
- 27:19Speaker 1: it's actually not, because if all this isn't strange enough,
- 27:23Speaker 1: Doris Delbert Gregg also says that one night in July
- 27:27Speaker 1: of nineteen fifty eight, she saw what we now call
- 27:30Speaker 1: a dog man. As Doris says, this strange experience happened
- 27:35Speaker 1: to me one night last July in nineteen fifty eight,
- 27:38Speaker 1: when my husband was away on business. I had pushed
- 27:42Speaker 1: my bed close to a large window, hoping to catch
- 27:45Speaker 1: the cool breeze from a thunderstorm which was gathering on
- 27:48Speaker 1: the southwestern horizon. It was stifling hot and I couldn't
- 27:52Speaker 1: seem to rest, but I snapped off the bedlight and
- 27:56Speaker 1: lay quietly trying to go to sleep. Finally I dozed
- 27:59Speaker 1: off along I slept, I do not know, but I
- 28:03Speaker 1: awakened with a start. A faint scratching sound was coming
- 28:07Speaker 1: from the screened window beside my face. I lay still
- 28:11Speaker 1: staring at the screened window as the seconds ticked by.
- 28:15Speaker 1: Suddenly a flash of lightning lit up the window for
- 28:18Speaker 1: an instant and I gasped in horror. A huge, shaggy
- 28:22Speaker 1: wolf like creature was clawing at the screen and glaring
- 28:26Speaker 1: at me with baleful, glowing, slidded eyes. I could see
- 28:31Speaker 1: its bared white fangs. I grabbed my flashlight from the
- 28:34Speaker 1: night table near by and leaped from the bed. Then
- 28:37Speaker 1: I shot the beam of light towards the window in
- 28:40Speaker 1: time to catch another glimpse of the monstrous animal as
- 28:43Speaker 1: it fled away from the open window, across the yard
- 28:47Speaker 1: and into a thick clump of bushes near the highway.
- 28:49Speaker 1: I watched for the animal to come out of the bushes,
- 28:52Speaker 1: but after a short time, instead of a great shaggy
- 28:55Speaker 1: wolf running out. The figure of an extremely tall man
- 28:59Speaker 1: suddenly parted with thick foliage and walked hurriedly off down
- 29:03Speaker 1: the road, disappearing into the darkness. Cold prickles of fear
- 29:08Speaker 1: ran over me. I closed the window and locked it,
- 29:11Speaker 1: and I slept with a bright light on in my
- 29:13Speaker 1: room the rest of that night. How cool is that?
- 29:16Speaker 1: I mean, it's just a lovely detailed story of someone
- 29:20Speaker 1: who had direct contact and came very close, I think,
- 29:24Speaker 1: to being taken on board. It's such a shame that
- 29:27Speaker 1: they ran away when the UFO finally came down, because
- 29:30Speaker 1: that's what they asked for. Perhaps you can look at
- 29:32Speaker 1: this as a cautionary tale of what might happen when
- 29:36Speaker 1: doing CE fives, you might get a little bit more
- 29:39Speaker 1: than you bargain for. Also really fascinating to me is
- 29:42Speaker 1: that she also describes a dog man encounter. No direct
- 29:46Speaker 1: evidence that this is related to her UFO encounters, but
- 29:50Speaker 1: I wonder about it. Maybe these were the ets, because
- 29:54Speaker 1: there are certainly reports of doglike extraterrestrials. I don't know,
- 29:58Speaker 1: just speculating there. Either way, it's still a fascinating story.
- 30:03Speaker 1: Now let's move on to the next one. This one
- 30:06Speaker 1: is really well verified and got quite a bit of
- 30:08Speaker 1: attention at the time. I call this one the peach
- 30:12Speaker 1: Tree and the UFO. This one occurred on July twenty second,
- 30:16Speaker 1: nineteen fifty five, in Cincinnati, Ohio, and it was heavily
- 30:21Speaker 1: publicized in newspapers. And as I went through these newspaper accounts,
- 30:25Speaker 1: I was shocked to see that they were severely biased
- 30:30Speaker 1: and in fact, it looks like they were basically covering
- 30:34Speaker 1: this incident up and changing the witness's testimony. That was
- 30:38Speaker 1: one of the reasons I wanted to include it as well,
- 30:40Speaker 1: also because it's an amazing example of a close unconner
- 30:44Speaker 1: of the second kind affecting the environment in a very
- 30:47Speaker 1: unusual way. This very unusual case, again was published in
- 30:52Speaker 1: local newspapers and received a fair amount of publicity per
- 30:56Speaker 1: the newspaper accounts. On the bright sunny summer morning of
- 31:00Speaker 1: July twenty second, nineteen sixty five, Ed Moots, age fifty nine,
- 31:05Speaker 1: was mowing the lawn of his home located at four
- 31:08Speaker 1: to four zero Bowl Street in Cincinnati, Ohio, who was
- 31:12Speaker 1: hoping to get the lawn mode before the day grew
- 31:15Speaker 1: too hot. He had gotten much of it done, and
- 31:17Speaker 1: was bending over to move the garden hose, which lay
- 31:20Speaker 1: next to his healthy, six foot tall peach tree heavy
- 31:24Speaker 1: with fresh, ripening peaches. As he reached for the hose,
- 31:28Speaker 1: he noticed a few reddish drops of liquid fall on
- 31:31Speaker 1: his hand, and, as Ed says, the substance was warm
- 31:35Speaker 1: and sticky and looked and felt like water blood, except
- 31:39Speaker 1: that it was oily to the touch. Now suddenly the
- 31:42Speaker 1: strange liquid was raining all around him like a heavy
- 31:45Speaker 1: summer rain. Shower Ed backed up from the tree and
- 31:48Speaker 1: looked up into his puzzlement and amazement, he saw a small,
- 31:52Speaker 1: reddish pink cloud, unlike anything he had seen before. It
- 31:57Speaker 1: was about five hundred feet up, and, according to some
- 32:00Speaker 1: reports in the case, there was also a silver disc
- 32:03Speaker 1: shaped craft above this cloud. The craft and the cloud
- 32:07Speaker 1: were moving slowly in tandem towards the north, and as
- 32:11Speaker 1: Ed says, I watched the cloud for a minute, trying
- 32:14Speaker 1: to figure it out, and then my bare arms and
- 32:17Speaker 1: hands where the drops had hit me began to burn.
- 32:20Speaker 1: They really hurt too. I felt like I had put
- 32:23Speaker 1: turpentine on an open cut. I ran for the house
- 32:26Speaker 1: and washed it off real good with strong soap and
- 32:29Speaker 1: hot water. By the time he got it off, his
- 32:32Speaker 1: hands and arms showed distinct burn marks. The next morning,
- 32:36Speaker 1: Ed examined his peach tree and were shocked and dismayed
- 32:39Speaker 1: to see that it had died during the night. Almost
- 32:42Speaker 1: all the leaves were fallen, dried up, and burned up,
- 32:44Speaker 1: and lying on the ground, as were the peaches, each
- 32:48Speaker 1: now not much bigger than the actual peach pit in
- 32:50Speaker 1: the center. Even the trunk of the tree had shrunk
- 32:54Speaker 1: to half its normal size, and the grass surrounding the
- 32:57Speaker 1: peach tree was also dead. The trunk was so hard
- 33:01Speaker 1: that Ed was unable to drive a nail into the trunk.
- 33:05Speaker 1: Ed couldn't believe how fast the tree had died, As
- 33:08Speaker 1: he says, I've seen plenty of them killed by insects, disease,
- 33:12Speaker 1: and poor care, but it takes a while for them
- 33:15Speaker 1: to die. I've never heard of anything that could kill
- 33:18Speaker 1: a plant within twelve hours. Whatever it was, it killed
- 33:21Speaker 1: my tree. Some of my friends have suggested that an
- 33:25Speaker 1: airplane dropped jet fuel on my tree, but it wasn't that.
- 33:29Speaker 1: There wasn't an airplane in the sky. I know, I
- 33:32Speaker 1: looked for one. Furthermore, that cloud was the only cloud
- 33:36Speaker 1: in the sky now nor does Ed believe it might
- 33:39Speaker 1: have been a cloud produced by some chemical plant, because,
- 33:41Speaker 1: as he says, I've lived here for fifteen years and
- 33:44Speaker 1: it's never happened before. I've never seen a cloud like
- 33:47Speaker 1: that before. Again, according to one report on the case,
- 33:51Speaker 1: Ed did see a silver disc shaped craft just above
- 33:54Speaker 1: the cloud, though in his alleged eyewitness testimony in the
- 33:59Speaker 1: new papers, Ed does not mention this, and in fact,
- 34:03Speaker 1: when asked if he thought the cloud might have hit
- 34:05Speaker 1: a flying saucer inside it, he replied, that's silly. That
- 34:09Speaker 1: cloud wasn't big enough to hide a flying saucer, if
- 34:12Speaker 1: there are such things. Besides, it wasn't controlled. I watched
- 34:16Speaker 1: it for a long time until it drifted out of
- 34:18Speaker 1: my sight over towards Eden Park. No, it definitely wasn't controlled.
- 34:24Speaker 1: Now Ed contacted authorities, and his word of his strange
- 34:27Speaker 1: experience any associated evidence spread. People came to visit him.
- 34:32Speaker 1: He said he was paid a visit by a man
- 34:34Speaker 1: from the US Air Force from Dayton, Ohio, who took
- 34:37Speaker 1: the remains of the peach tree, including the stump, the
- 34:40Speaker 1: fallen peaches, and the dead grass and leaves. The officer
- 34:44Speaker 1: promised to let Ed know what they found out, but
- 34:47Speaker 1: needless to say, he never heard back from them. Now
- 34:50Speaker 1: here's where the story gets confused. Researcher Leonard Stringfield heard
- 34:54Speaker 1: about the case and decided to pay a personal visit
- 34:57Speaker 1: to Ed Moots to interview him face to face. Ed
- 35:01Speaker 1: Moots told him specifically that yes, in fact, despite the
- 35:04Speaker 1: newspaper reports to the contrary, he did see a solid,
- 35:08Speaker 1: structured craft. While the newspapers said the sighting occurred during
- 35:13Speaker 1: the morning as he mowed the lawn, Ed told Leonard
- 35:15Speaker 1: Stringfield that in fact, it was around five thirty or
- 35:18Speaker 1: six PM and he was tending to the soil around
- 35:21Speaker 1: his peach tree when he felt these drops of liquid
- 35:24Speaker 1: not only on his arm, but on his neck, and
- 35:26Speaker 1: looking up he saw a strange object like an upside
- 35:30Speaker 1: down pair with a metallic fin. Said one half of
- 35:34Speaker 1: the object was red, the other half was green, was
- 35:37Speaker 1: totally silent. Ed told Leonard Stringfield that the object had
- 35:41Speaker 1: quote perfect contours and was quote definitely controlled. Leonard Stringfield
- 35:48Speaker 1: underlined that in his notes. Ed Moots also told Leonard
- 35:52Speaker 1: that the red liquid came from an opening in the
- 35:55Speaker 1: bottom of the object, which then moved slowly and steadily
- 35:58Speaker 1: to the northeast. Ed also told Leonard that it was
- 36:01Speaker 1: three plain clothed men who arrived the next day and
- 36:04Speaker 1: took away the tree, the leaves, and the fruit for analysis,
- 36:08Speaker 1: and as Ed says, they promised a report of their
- 36:11Speaker 1: analysis within six weeks, and again, as we know, this
- 36:15Speaker 1: never happened. In fact, the newspaper reports were not only
- 36:18Speaker 1: highly inaccurate, it appeared to have censored out any mention
- 36:21Speaker 1: of the solid structured object and apparently made up their
- 36:24Speaker 1: own testimony, turning ed Moot's solid controlled craft to an
- 36:29Speaker 1: uncontrolled mysterious cloud I guess such as the nature of
- 36:32Speaker 1: UFOs and the media. While the burns on Ed's arm
- 36:35Speaker 1: finally did heal, he was left with some minor permanent scarring. Also,
- 36:40Speaker 1: the area where the tree had been and the grass
- 36:43Speaker 1: surrounding it remained permanently lifeless. Reportedly, Ed did not want
- 36:48Speaker 1: to say who these three men were that visited him,
- 36:52Speaker 1: but later investigation revealed that they were three Air Force
- 36:57Speaker 1: officers from Wright Patterson Field in Dayton, Ohio. To me,
- 37:02Speaker 1: the biggest takeaway from that case is to be very
- 37:05Speaker 1: careful when reading newspaper reports on whether or not they
- 37:09Speaker 1: are presenting the account truthfully, honestly, in an unbiased way,
- 37:15Speaker 1: because clearly in that case they did not. Thank God
- 37:18Speaker 1: for researcher Leonard Stringfield, who decided he was going to
- 37:22Speaker 1: take a closer look at this case and went to
- 37:25Speaker 1: the witness and got his story firsthand, because to see
- 37:29Speaker 1: that this story was being censored in such a way
- 37:33Speaker 1: that the newspapers essentially removed the whole UFO aspect of
- 37:38Speaker 1: it and called it a cloud, which, of course the
- 37:42Speaker 1: witness says no, this was an actual structured object. So
- 37:47Speaker 1: a truly amazing case. Now let's move to the next one,
- 37:51Speaker 1: and this, of all the cases in this compilation, is probably,
- 37:55Speaker 1: for me at least the most bizarre. I have a
- 37:58Speaker 1: lot of questions about it. I'll say more about it
- 38:01Speaker 1: after I present this case, which I call the miniature UFO.
- 38:06Speaker 1: This one occurred on May eighteenth, nineteen sixty eight, in Kacande, Brazil.
- 38:11Speaker 1: This case first appeared in the July August nineteen sixty
- 38:14Speaker 1: eight issue of the April Bulletin in an article titled
- 38:18Speaker 1: Brazilian Object, Real Puzzler. It took place in the small
- 38:23Speaker 1: town of Cocande in South Polo, Brazil. The witness is
- 38:27Speaker 1: Night watchman Kaitano Sergio dos Santos, age twenty eight. It
- 38:32Speaker 1: was about five am on May seventeen, nineteen sixty eight,
- 38:36Speaker 1: after the end of his night shift, that Kaitano returned
- 38:39Speaker 1: to his small home located in rural Kocande. As he
- 38:43Speaker 1: approached his house, he was puzzled to see a strange
- 38:46Speaker 1: metallic cylinder lying on the right side yard near the
- 38:50Speaker 1: back door. Was just under seven inches long and about
- 38:53Speaker 1: six inches wide and not very big, but when he
- 38:56Speaker 1: tried to pick it up, he found it was so
- 38:58Speaker 1: heavy that he had to use both hands. Whoever had
- 39:01Speaker 1: put it there, it must have landed softly, as it
- 39:04Speaker 1: left only a slight impression in the soil there. Kaetana
- 39:08Speaker 1: was puzzled by the object and examined it closely. He
- 39:11Speaker 1: said it had a smooth, dull gray metallic surface, but
- 39:15Speaker 1: was highly reflective under electric light. The ends of the
- 39:19Speaker 1: cylinder were perfectly flat and covered by some sort of
- 39:22Speaker 1: transparent material with no visible seams. In other words, he
- 39:26Speaker 1: said it appeared to be cast from one solid piece
- 39:29Speaker 1: of metal. Transparent ends showed what appeared to be a
- 39:32Speaker 1: dial with a pointer and five markings with what appeared
- 39:36Speaker 1: to be symbols resembling numbers, and next to them more complicated,
- 39:40Speaker 1: almost hieroglyphic like symbols. The dial on one end was
- 39:44Speaker 1: black and the other was red. Each of the pointers
- 39:48Speaker 1: on these dials had a tiny sphere on the end.
- 39:51Speaker 1: Kaetano was so puzzled and fascinated by this mysterious object
- 39:56Speaker 1: that he studied it for a full one and a
- 39:58Speaker 1: half hours before finally going go to bed. He slept
- 40:01Speaker 1: for about five hours, waking up at two pm in
- 40:04Speaker 1: the afternoon. He went outside to eat orange and continued
- 40:07Speaker 1: to examine the object some more. As a plane flew over,
- 40:11Speaker 1: he watched the dials to see if they would react
- 40:14Speaker 1: to this. Of course, they did not. He tried dashing
- 40:17Speaker 1: the object to the ground to try to affect these dials,
- 40:20Speaker 1: but they remained perfectly stationary. His children wanted to touch it,
- 40:24Speaker 1: the Kitano warned him to keep away from it. He
- 40:27Speaker 1: did show it to his neighbors and said, quote, look
- 40:30Speaker 1: at the clock I found in the yard, But he
- 40:33Speaker 1: soon had to go to work, so he decided to
- 40:35Speaker 1: place this object on the top of a six foot
- 40:38Speaker 1: separation wall in their bathroom, between a small oil lamp
- 40:42Speaker 1: and a few bars of soap, and he went to
- 40:44Speaker 1: work and told his workmates about the strange object. Now,
- 40:49Speaker 1: his wife was pregnant at the time, and because of this,
- 40:52Speaker 1: and because he worked close to home, he often returned
- 40:55Speaker 1: home to check on her during his shift. That night,
- 40:59Speaker 1: he returned to his home around one a m. And
- 41:02Speaker 1: as he approached his house, his neighbors said that they
- 41:05Speaker 1: had heard his wife calling for help. But he ran
- 41:08Speaker 1: home and found his wife and two young children standing
- 41:11Speaker 1: outside in their night clothes crying. He learned that just
- 41:14Speaker 1: a few minutes earlier, his wife had been awakened by
- 41:17Speaker 1: a loud, humming noise coming from the bathroom where he
- 41:20Speaker 1: had put this mysterious object, and looking in that direction,
- 41:24Speaker 1: she saw an eerie blue light and felt a growing heat,
- 41:28Speaker 1: which quickly began to fill the whole house, including her bedroom,
- 41:32Speaker 1: which was the furthest room from the object. She tried
- 41:36Speaker 1: turning off the electricity, thinking there was some short or
- 41:39Speaker 1: something going on, but this object continued to hum and
- 41:42Speaker 1: grow in brightness and heat. Finally, the sound, the light,
- 41:46Speaker 1: and the heat became so intense that she and the
- 41:49Speaker 1: children were forced to evacuate the house, and this was
- 41:52Speaker 1: when she began to call for help. Moments later, there
- 41:56Speaker 1: was a tremendous noise, like a clap of thunder, and
- 42:00Speaker 1: she saw the tiles from the roof of their house
- 42:02Speaker 1: raining down around them. The humming sound was now gone.
- 42:06Speaker 1: There was no more light, no more heat, and an
- 42:08Speaker 1: eerie silence reigned. This was when Katano arrived. Together. They
- 42:13Speaker 1: entered the house and were shocked to see that the
- 42:15Speaker 1: strange object was gone, and directly above where it had been,
- 42:19Speaker 1: there was a gaping hole in the ceiling and roof
- 42:22Speaker 1: of their house. After things calmed down a bit, Katano
- 42:26Speaker 1: went to a bar where his friends were hanging out
- 42:28Speaker 1: and told them what happened. This case generated great interest
- 42:32Speaker 1: among investigators, but there was no sign of this mystery object,
- 42:36Speaker 1: and whatever it was, the secret government machine or an
- 42:40Speaker 1: unknown alien artifact, it remains a mystery. While that case
- 42:45Speaker 1: is very well verified with multiple witnesses and pretty thoroughly investigated,
- 42:51Speaker 1: it's such a shame that they didn't get a drawing
- 42:54Speaker 1: of this object, or perhaps a photograph, given that the
- 42:57Speaker 1: man did have this in his possession. Is this a
- 43:02Speaker 1: UFO extra trestial I'm leaning towards not. I think probably
- 43:07Speaker 1: that this was some sort of reverse engineered technology. But
- 43:12Speaker 1: even so, if it is, I still have a lot
- 43:14Speaker 1: of questions about it. I mean, how can this thing
- 43:17Speaker 1: fly around if it's this hunk of heavy metals. It's
- 43:21Speaker 1: just a bizarre case in so many ways, and really
- 43:25Speaker 1: an interesting addition to the literature on UFOs. I really
- 43:30Speaker 1: wonder about it all right now, it's moved to the
- 43:34Speaker 1: next case, which I call UFO truck Stop. This one
- 43:38Speaker 1: occurred on March fourth, nineteen sixty nine. It's a single
- 43:42Speaker 1: witness case. It occurred in plain View, Missouri. The witness
- 43:47Speaker 1: is clearly honest and sincere. This case also got a
- 43:51Speaker 1: lot of publicity, so you may have heard of it before.
- 43:54Speaker 1: It's an excellent example of a close encounter of the
- 43:57Speaker 1: second kind, but some of the effects here are really unusual.
- 44:02Speaker 1: Due to its unusual and bizarre features, this case received
- 44:06Speaker 1: a lot of attention from UFO researchers and was actually
- 44:09Speaker 1: published in several UFO journals, including The UFO Investigator, by Nightcap,
- 44:15Speaker 1: Skylook by Muffan, and the Apro Bulletin and Saucer Scoop,
- 44:20Speaker 1: and in more than a dozen newspapers across the United States.
- 44:25Speaker 1: At the time, Missouri was receiving a flood of reports,
- 44:28Speaker 1: but among the strangest of them all was the encounter
- 44:31Speaker 1: of a postal carrier and former marshall for the city
- 44:35Speaker 1: of Elmer, William R. Overstreet Age fifty. Was on the
- 44:40Speaker 1: morning of March fourth, nineteen sixty nine that William had
- 44:44Speaker 1: left his home in Elmer and was making the twelve
- 44:47Speaker 1: mile long drive to Atlanta to begin his shift. Was
- 44:51Speaker 1: around six forty a m now just past dawn, bright
- 44:55Speaker 1: enough for him to see well, and he drove eastbound
- 44:58Speaker 1: on Highway J. He had just passed the small town
- 45:01Speaker 1: of plain View, just before the east fork Little Chariton River.
- 45:06Speaker 1: He was about four miles west of Atlanta in Missouri
- 45:09Speaker 1: when he saw something that would change his life. As
- 45:13Speaker 1: William says, I noticed a large red object about one
- 45:17Speaker 1: half mile to the right of me in the field.
- 45:20Speaker 1: Was traveling north and I was going east. When it
- 45:23Speaker 1: came upon the road in front of me, it turned
- 45:25Speaker 1: the same way I was going. Judging from the width
- 45:28Speaker 1: of the road, the object was about one hundred feet across.
- 45:33Speaker 1: The lower edge of the red glow was about fifty
- 45:35Speaker 1: feet above the ground. It seemed to stop for a
- 45:38Speaker 1: second as it turned the same direction I was going now.
- 45:41Speaker 1: William had never put much stock in stories about UFOs,
- 45:45Speaker 1: but it now occurred to him that he was looking
- 45:46Speaker 1: right at one. Little did he know his encounter was
- 45:50Speaker 1: about to become much more than a simple sighting. As
- 45:53Speaker 1: William says, as I came closer to it, a real
- 45:57Speaker 1: strong white light came down upon the road in front
- 45:59Speaker 1: of me. The light was at full width at the
- 46:02Speaker 1: top and came to a spot about eight feet across
- 46:05Speaker 1: the road. The light magnified the chat the gravel on
- 46:09Speaker 1: the highway to about the size of golf balls. This
- 46:13Speaker 1: light beam that came to the ground was extremely hot.
- 46:17Speaker 1: The heat came through the windshield of the truck so
- 46:19Speaker 1: bad that it felt like I was sitting out in
- 46:21Speaker 1: the sun on a hot summer day with the car
- 46:24Speaker 1: glasses rolled up. By this, William means that it felt
- 46:28Speaker 1: as if all the windows in the car were rolled
- 46:30Speaker 1: up on a hot summer day, but in fact it
- 46:33Speaker 1: was a very cold morning, below freezing, and there was
- 46:36Speaker 1: still ice around the edges of his windshield. But upon
- 46:40Speaker 1: encountering this UFO, very quickly the ice melted, and, as
- 46:45Speaker 1: William says, when this beam came to the ground, the
- 46:48Speaker 1: object changed colors. The center park changed to a bright
- 46:52Speaker 1: blue with a quivering sensation. Around this blue was a
- 46:56Speaker 1: wide red band, then a small yellow band on the outside,
- 47:01Speaker 1: which glowed like bubble lights and made the yellow band
- 47:04Speaker 1: look like it was turning clockwise around the rest of it.
- 47:07Speaker 1: The light was extremely bright. I could not see through
- 47:10Speaker 1: this glow. I couldn't tell what this material was made of.
- 47:14Speaker 1: I could see no windows or doors. There was also
- 47:17Speaker 1: no sound. Events were now about to escalate to an
- 47:21Speaker 1: alarming degree because, as William says, I started moving up closer.
- 47:26Speaker 1: I had my two way radio on and was trying
- 47:28Speaker 1: to talk over it, but it seemed that my signal
- 47:31Speaker 1: was not getting out. When I got close to the
- 47:35Speaker 1: beam of light, my truck motor quit, and also my radio.
- 47:38Speaker 1: It seemed that the battery in my truck was dead.
- 47:41Speaker 1: The light was so bright I had to pull my
- 47:43Speaker 1: Sunvieser down and shield my eyes with my hands. I
- 47:47Speaker 1: released the clutch and let the truck coast. When the
- 47:50Speaker 1: beam moved from me a few feet, I heard static
- 47:53Speaker 1: on my radio and let the clutch out and the
- 47:55Speaker 1: motor started. I moved up slowly this time. When I
- 48:00Speaker 1: got within six feet of the beam, the motor started missing.
- 48:04Speaker 1: I gave it more gas and it died again as before.
- 48:07Speaker 1: The radio went out. Also, when the object moved away
- 48:11Speaker 1: from me, the truck started again. I dropped back away
- 48:14Speaker 1: from it, then followed it about four miles. It moved
- 48:18Speaker 1: about three quarters of a mile down the road with
- 48:20Speaker 1: the beam down, then changed back to its original color,
- 48:24Speaker 1: which was a bright red, stayed about the same height
- 48:27Speaker 1: above the ground, went up and down with the contour
- 48:30Speaker 1: of the ground, and was traveling about forty miles an hour.
- 48:34Speaker 1: It flashed once more as it crossed a high line
- 48:37Speaker 1: that followed the side of the highway until it crossed
- 48:39Speaker 1: Highway sixty three. Then it veered off to the southwest.
- 48:43Speaker 1: Then it went out of sight. Now there is a
- 48:45Speaker 1: tall tower about one hundred and sixty feet high at
- 48:48Speaker 1: the junction of Highway Jay and Highway sixty three. As
- 48:52Speaker 1: the object moved by the tower, William was now able
- 48:55Speaker 1: to get an accurate estimate of the altitude of the
- 48:57Speaker 1: object and believed it was about forty to sixty feet
- 49:01Speaker 1: above the ground. As per the male carrier motto, through
- 49:04Speaker 1: the rain, snow, sleeterer hail, the mail must be delivered well.
- 49:08Speaker 1: Apparently this also includes UFOs. Needless to say, while William
- 49:12Speaker 1: Overstreet had been skeptical of UFOs, he now took UFO
- 49:16Speaker 1: reports seriously, says William. I saw it about eight minutes altogether.
- 49:21Speaker 1: I'd never believed in them too much until I saw this.
- 49:25Speaker 1: Now I know there is something to these UFOs. I
- 49:28Speaker 1: do not know why it was there. I also don't
- 49:31Speaker 1: know where it was going. I do not know what
- 49:33Speaker 1: it was after I saw it. I just don't know.
- 49:37Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like it, but I don't care
- 49:39Speaker 1: about being that close to another one. Researcher Ted Phillips
- 49:43Speaker 1: interviewed William Overstreet personally and writes, I was most impressed
- 49:47Speaker 1: with mister Overstreet as an observer. He was most sincere
- 49:51Speaker 1: and would discuss only the facts he was sure of.
- 49:54Speaker 1: Now it turns out there is some corroboration, because there
- 49:57Speaker 1: were numerous reports in the next week at Elmer, Atlanta,
- 50:01Speaker 1: and other cities in Missouri. After the encounter, William Overstreet
- 50:06Speaker 1: did retrace the route, stopping at various homes and asking
- 50:10Speaker 1: the residents there if anyone had seen what he saw.
- 50:13Speaker 1: Nobody had. There was one other strange effect following the encounter.
- 50:18Speaker 1: William's wristwatch stopped keeping accurate time. I'm so glad the witness,
- 50:24Speaker 1: William Overstreet came forward with his encounter. Always makes me
- 50:28Speaker 1: wonder how many people don't come forward and share their
- 50:31Speaker 1: encounter publicly, because we know there's a lot. Wouldn't surprise
- 50:36Speaker 1: me one bit if there are more witnesses to this account,
- 50:39Speaker 1: but even the witness himself was not able to locate any.
- 50:43Speaker 1: But such a fascinating example of someone encountering the UFO
- 50:48Speaker 1: on a lonely highway with some really interesting effects on
- 50:52Speaker 1: his vehicle. Of course, there's a lot of cases where
- 50:56Speaker 1: UFOs could come down and turn a per since car
- 51:00Speaker 1: off and cause static on the radio and so forth,
- 51:03Speaker 1: which obviously happened in this case. But to me, there
- 51:06Speaker 1: was that really interesting effect of him looking through the
- 51:09Speaker 1: beam of light from the UFO and saying that the
- 51:13Speaker 1: items that he saw through the UFO, particularly the gravel
- 51:16Speaker 1: on the road, appeared to be magnified. I don't know
- 51:19Speaker 1: that I ever heard that before, but it's a great
- 51:22Speaker 1: example of what appears to be an intentional encounter, because
- 51:27Speaker 1: this UFO came from the side of the road and
- 51:32Speaker 1: moved directly in front of the truck. And basically forced
- 51:37Speaker 1: William Overstreet to follow this UFO for some four miles.
- 51:42Speaker 1: So I have to believe that the UFO occupants were
- 51:45Speaker 1: perfectly aware that William Overstreet was looking at them. I
- 51:50Speaker 1: don't know. It's an unusual case, and that's why I
- 51:53Speaker 1: wanted to include it. All right, Now, let's move to
- 51:56Speaker 1: the next case. This case involved a type of ufone
- 52:01Speaker 1: country that's quite rare, but their number of cases like
- 52:05Speaker 1: it are growing. This is what UFO researchers call a
- 52:09Speaker 1: car lift case, and in fact, I did a whole
- 52:12Speaker 1: video on car lift cases, and this one is one
- 52:16Speaker 1: I wish I had known about earlier, so that's one
- 52:20Speaker 1: of the reasons I wanted to include it. It's also
- 52:23Speaker 1: interesting because there were basically three occupants in the car
- 52:28Speaker 1: when they encountered this UFO. So I call this next
- 52:32Speaker 1: one UFO levitates family in their car. It's occurred on
- 52:36Speaker 1: November thirty, nineteen sixty nine, in Plainville, Illinois, and it
- 52:42Speaker 1: is a fairly brief incident, but I think worthy of
- 52:46Speaker 1: closer attention. This next case appeared in the MUFON Journal
- 52:50Speaker 1: in an article titled car rises from highway as UFO
- 52:54Speaker 1: passes overhead This is by the former director of Muffon,
- 52:58Speaker 1: Whiallet Andres Junior, and it's clearly one of several rare
- 53:02Speaker 1: Carlift cases. Was just after sunset at five thirty pm
- 53:07Speaker 1: on November thirty, nineteen sixty nine, that three members of
- 53:11Speaker 1: the Attor family, including the father Russell Attour age forty six,
- 53:16Speaker 1: his wife Betty age forty three, and their young son Alex,
- 53:20Speaker 1: age eleven, were driving northwest along State Highway ninety six
- 53:25Speaker 1: between Plainville and Payson, Illinois. They were moving at about
- 53:29Speaker 1: fifty five or sixty miles per hour when suddenly Alex
- 53:32Speaker 1: saw a fast moving, glowing red object to their right.
- 53:36Speaker 1: He saw it first, who was moving west in a
- 53:38Speaker 1: straight line directly towards them, about seven hundred to eight
- 53:41Speaker 1: hundred feet away, but very quickly both his parents saw
- 53:45Speaker 1: it too quickly darted off or disappeared, but it was
- 53:49Speaker 1: immediately followed by a much larger craft what first appeared
- 53:53Speaker 1: to Russell to be a circle of red lights. This
- 53:57Speaker 1: object was also heading directly towards their vehicle, and as
- 54:00Speaker 1: it quickly drew closer, they could see that it appeared
- 54:03Speaker 1: to have an equilateral triangular shape with rounded corners. It
- 54:08Speaker 1: was glowing with a fiery red neon light, and it
- 54:11Speaker 1: was very low, much like a plane coming in for
- 54:14Speaker 1: a landing. It appeared to be about the size of
- 54:17Speaker 1: a small plane. As the object moved closer, it descended
- 54:21Speaker 1: even lower, and it seemed to almost turn and swoop
- 54:24Speaker 1: down directly over their vehicle. Now at this point Betty
- 54:28Speaker 1: became frightened. E eleven year old Alex was very intrigued.
- 54:32Speaker 1: Russell says he was pretty busy with driving and was
- 54:35Speaker 1: not able to pay close attention to the object. But
- 54:37Speaker 1: here's where things went from strange to bizarre, because as
- 54:41Speaker 1: the object passed directly over the car seemed to turn
- 54:44Speaker 1: towards them. Russell and the others felt the car seemed
- 54:47Speaker 1: to rise above the highway. In fact, he estimates that
- 54:50Speaker 1: they were levitating about ten inches above the road. The
- 54:55Speaker 1: object quickly moved off, now ascending and turning and disappearing
- 54:59Speaker 1: over some trees to the south. The car returned to
- 55:02Speaker 1: the highway with an audible thump. When speaking with investigators,
- 55:06Speaker 1: the witnesses felt certain that the levitation and the thump
- 55:10Speaker 1: when the car settled back on the road could not
- 55:12Speaker 1: be attributed to any dips or bumps on the highway.
- 55:16Speaker 1: They estimate that the object was in view for no
- 55:18Speaker 1: more than seven seconds. They heard no sound coming from
- 55:21Speaker 1: the object, nor was their vehicle or they themselves physically affected,
- 55:25Speaker 1: other than, of course, the apparent levitation of their vehicle.
- 55:29Speaker 1: Walt andris praised the muff On investigator who looked into
- 55:33Speaker 1: this case and called the case quote a fine detailed
- 55:37Speaker 1: account of a very interesting event. The car lift cases
- 55:41Speaker 1: are so interesting to me, and some are clearly accidental,
- 55:44Speaker 1: with UFOs just kind of flying over a person's car
- 55:47Speaker 1: and lifting them up, but I think most are not.
- 55:50Speaker 1: In the fact that this UFO turned to actually come
- 55:55Speaker 1: directly over the car and lifted up just a few
- 55:59Speaker 1: inches off off the road for just a few brief seconds.
- 56:02Speaker 1: To me, this sounds intentional. Of course, we don't know.
- 56:05Speaker 1: That's pure speculation, and it was a very brief encounter,
- 56:10Speaker 1: but all three witnesses felt absolutely certain that this UFO
- 56:14Speaker 1: lifted their car off the road. Why. I don't know,
- 56:18Speaker 1: but it's my speculation that this is sort of an
- 56:21Speaker 1: introduction for people to let them know that UFOs are
- 56:25Speaker 1: real in a way that they absolutely cannot deny. All right, now,
- 56:31Speaker 1: let's move to the last and final case in this compilation.
- 56:35Speaker 1: This one is definitely a case I've never heard before
- 56:40Speaker 1: in terms of the details the witness describes, and it's
- 56:44Speaker 1: got some really fantastic elements to it, which is why
- 56:49Speaker 1: I wanted to include it. I call this one the
- 56:52Speaker 1: Energy Blobs. This one occurred on December twenty second, nineteen
- 56:57Speaker 1: ninety three, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. And I've got something
- 57:01Speaker 1: to say about the details of this case after I
- 57:04Speaker 1: present it, but let's get to it. Some cases are
- 57:07Speaker 1: extremely bizarre and very difficult to categorize, such as this
- 57:11Speaker 1: encounter reported to Muffan by a gentleman who is anonymous.
- 57:15Speaker 1: I'll just call him Charles. That is, of course, a pseudonym.
- 57:18Speaker 1: He reported his encounter about twenty one years after it occurred.
- 57:23Speaker 1: It occurred in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on the night of
- 57:26Speaker 1: December twenty second, nineteen ninety three. Charles was listening to
- 57:30Speaker 1: the end of a radio show in the living room
- 57:32Speaker 1: of his home while his wife was in bed reading.
- 57:35Speaker 1: The radio show ended and he got up to join
- 57:38Speaker 1: his wife in the bedroom. And as Charles says, as
- 57:42Speaker 1: I got up, there was suddenly light everywhere and I
- 57:45Speaker 1: was forced to the floor. I could hear her screaming
- 57:48Speaker 1: in the next room, but could not get up to
- 57:51Speaker 1: get to her. The next moment, I was in what
- 57:54Speaker 1: seemed to be like a cavern made of rock, with
- 57:57Speaker 1: a river or something running through the middle. On the
- 58:00Speaker 1: other side was one very large blob of energy, surrounded
- 58:05Speaker 1: by several smaller energy blobs. As I was thinking of
- 58:08Speaker 1: what to ask, the larger one spoke not audibly and
- 58:12Speaker 1: simply said, you're going back. It's not your time yet.
- 58:17Speaker 1: Immediately I was back on the living room floor, hearing
- 58:20Speaker 1: my wife screaming stop, stop, stop, over and over. Now.
- 58:25Speaker 1: Chuck was a young man and quite strong, though he
- 58:28Speaker 1: said it felt as though he weighed hundreds of pounds.
- 58:31Speaker 1: As he struggled to pull himself up off the floor,
- 58:34Speaker 1: there was still blazing white light filling the house, and
- 58:37Speaker 1: the radio was making strange noises. With great effort, Chuck
- 58:41Speaker 1: finally made it to the bedroom. He found his wife
- 58:44Speaker 1: still screaming and holding her head. The light now quickly
- 58:47Speaker 1: dissipated and the radio began to play normally. Chuck immediately
- 58:51Speaker 1: asked his wife what happened. She used her index finger
- 58:55Speaker 1: to point to her forehead right where the third eye is,
- 58:58Speaker 1: and said they wouldn't stop poking me in the head.
- 59:02Speaker 1: She repeated this several times, she apparently did not see anything. Eventually,
- 59:07Speaker 1: they both calmed down and went to bed, and, as
- 59:10Speaker 1: Chuck says, oddly, we never spoke of it again. I
- 59:15Speaker 1: was during all this time that all kinds of strange
- 59:18Speaker 1: things were happening, and one involved the disappearance of Chuck's
- 59:21Speaker 1: wife's silver jewelry. As Chuck says, the entire time we
- 59:27Speaker 1: lived there during her pregnancy, small items of silver jewelry
- 59:31Speaker 1: would come up missing every so often. She initially thought
- 59:34Speaker 1: it was me hawking it off for pot money, but
- 59:37Speaker 1: I wasn't, and I knew it. Every time something would
- 59:40Speaker 1: come up missing, there would be a small, perfectly formed,
- 59:44Speaker 1: conical deposit of something like sut on the bathroom floor.
- 59:49Speaker 1: There was no vent or pipe or any other source
- 59:51Speaker 1: for the sut. Now, the mystery to the missing jewelry
- 59:55Speaker 1: came to an explicable end shortly after the strange encounter
- 59:59Speaker 1: with the energy. As Charles says, shortly after our experience,
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: my wife went in for delivery. The next day. I
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: went home briefly to gather supplies for the hospital's stay.
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: There on the floor was a spot of soot. I
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: opened the cabinet to get towels, and on the shelf,
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: arranged in an intricate pattern, was every piece of silver
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: jewelry that had ever been missing. Now Charles and his
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: wife are still unable to explain any of this, but
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: Charles does admit to having a lifetime of unusual experiences.
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: In fact, as a young child, he says he was
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: visited and communicated with beings that he used to think
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: were angels. He grew up in a strict Catholic family
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: and really had no other interpretation for what he was experiencing.
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: But as an adult around twenty eleven, while living in Seattle,
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: he was watching TV in the middle of the day
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: when suddenly he found himself in a strange and unknown location.
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: As Chuck says, I was paralyzed in a bed in
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: a large circular room with an observation window above me
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: and what appeared to be an Asian woman watching me
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: through the glass. There was someone else being moved in
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: another bed behind me, and as they passed they screamed
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: out for help, but I remained oddly indifferent and just
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: focused on the woman watching me. Then I was back
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: in my own bed with two energy blobs next to
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: me vibrating. They seemed to dissipate, leaving me barely able
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: to move for several minutes. Was following this experience that
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: Chuck did find two triangular marks on his body which
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: appeared to be quote light surgical scars. Later he would
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: find other mysterious marks on his body. He eventually contacted Muffan,
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: stating specifically that he is a member of MENSA and
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: is not mentally ill or addicted to drugs. And he
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: added that he is suffering from insomnia, sleeping only a
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: couple of hours per night, and that his health is deteriorating,
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: and he contacted Mufan because he was looking for answers
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: as to what has happened to him and why. In
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: some ways, I think this is a typical case of
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: ET contact. It's clear that this gentleman has had lifelong experiences,
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: and my heart goes off to him because I often
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: hear witnesses say things like, you know, I've graduated college,
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: I don't have any history of mental illness, and basically
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: giving some caveat as to why they want to be believed,
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: and we see that with this witness. But most interesting
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: to me is how he was essentially transported during one
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: of these encounters, these very bizarre physiological effects. He describes
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: these unusual missing time incidents, the marks on his body.
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot to unpack with this case.
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: To me, the most fascinating part was he kept finding
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: these little piles of soot, and the jewelry from his
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: wife kept on going missing, and of course at one
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: point it all comes back and he finds it all
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: in the closet. Now, that is absolutely and I think
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: you'll agree, bizarre, but it's not unique. I know of
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: a number of cases where people have worn jewelry during
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: their encounters, only to later have it returned. There's a
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: lady I interviewed who had an incident on Catalina Island.
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: The etis took her ring and later she found it
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: on her dresser. I know of other cases just like that,
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: And in fact, many people don't know this, but that
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: happened to Betty Hill. She had jewelry on when she
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: was taken with her husband Barney in New Hampshire in
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: the nineteen sixty one, a very famous case. But later
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: following this incident, she came into her house one day
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: and saw a pile of leaves on her kitchen table,
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: and inside of it was some jewelry that she had
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: been wearing during her incident. It's just crazy, really busy
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: are and just such an interesting and unusual detail. So
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: there you go, eight cases, each showing that there's still
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: quite a bit to learn about eufology, the extra frestual
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: presence on our planet, and what exactly is going on here.
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: Justin when you think you heard it all, you haven't.
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: So thanks, guys, I truly appreciate it. I hope you've
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: enjoyed this episode and perhaps learned something. And until next time,
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: keep asking those hard questions, keep searching for the truth
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: most important of all, keep having fun, and I'll see
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: you next time, I hope for another episode of UFOs
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: and the Paranormal. Bye for now,
