Frozen in Fear: Ten Very Scary Encounters with Extraterrestrials · UFOS & PARANORMAL WITH PRESTON DENNETT

0:00
Speaker 1: Hello everyone. My name is Preston Dennett, and welcome to
0:03
Speaker 1: a new episode of UFOs and the Paranormal. Thank you
0:06
Speaker 1: so much for joining me. Going to be talking about humanoids.
0:10
Speaker 1: If you've watched this channel, you know I love covering
0:13
Speaker 1: humanoid cases, particularly cases that are not well known, have
0:18
Speaker 1: unique aspects to them, have something to teach us about
0:21
Speaker 1: the extraterrestrial presence on this planet. I think the ten
0:25
Speaker 1: cases I have for you today fit that bill. The
0:28
Speaker 1: title of today's episode is Frozen in Fear. Ten very
0:32
Speaker 1: scary close encounters with extraterrestrial humanoids. Fear does seem to
0:37
Speaker 1: be a common factor in these kinds of cases, which
0:41
Speaker 1: is certainly understandable. The ten cases I have for you
0:45
Speaker 1: today are both historical and current. In fact, I've got
0:48
Speaker 1: a case that goes all the way back to eighteen
0:50
Speaker 1: fifty and one as recent as two thousand and seven.
0:54
Speaker 1: And we see all different types of ets. So there
0:58
Speaker 1: are of course grays probably the most common type I hear,
1:01
Speaker 1: but human looking beings that aren't quite human looking but close.
1:07
Speaker 1: Also one case involving a couple of hairy humanoids, which
1:10
Speaker 1: is always interesting to me. And cases from all over
1:14
Speaker 1: the world, including Argentina, China, England, Italy, Georgia, Kentucky, Illinois, Michigan, Mississippi,
1:30
Speaker 1: and Missouri. So let's just get go in with our
1:34
Speaker 1: first case, which I call something watching Me. This occurred
1:39
Speaker 1: around nineteen twenty eight in Leicester, England. It's a fascinating
1:44
Speaker 1: case of a daylight UFO landing and a pretty unusual humanoid.
1:49
Speaker 1: This very early case comes from missus Pauline Berger, whose
1:53
Speaker 1: son convinced her to go public with her sighting of
1:55
Speaker 1: a strange humanoid after he read a strikingly similar count
2:00
Speaker 1: in a UFO magazine. So Pauline's father often took Pauline
2:05
Speaker 1: for walks in the fields along Anstey Lane in Leicester, England.
2:10
Speaker 1: At that time, this area was far more rural than
2:14
Speaker 1: it is today, and it was one hot summer day
2:16
Speaker 1: in nineteen twenty eight that they had taken a walk
2:20
Speaker 1: through the fields. Pauline's father settled down to have a
2:23
Speaker 1: nap while Pauline sat next to him reading a book,
2:27
Speaker 1: and as Pauline says, I suddenly became aware of something
2:31
Speaker 1: watching me and saw what I took at first to
2:34
Speaker 1: be a scarecrow. It looked like a scarecrow. Because of
2:38
Speaker 1: its odd shape and the fact that it was all
2:41
Speaker 1: in black and did not appear to have any face,
2:44
Speaker 1: although it had a large head. I was some distance
2:47
Speaker 1: from it, so it may have well had features which
2:50
Speaker 1: I could not discern, but I did notice that its
2:53
Speaker 1: arms were long and dangling. Being interested in my book,
2:57
Speaker 1: I dismissed it as being just as scarearecrow and continued
3:01
Speaker 1: to read. However, I could feel it watching me. So
3:05
Speaker 1: this strange feeling finally encouraged Pauline to take a second
3:09
Speaker 1: and closer look at this figure, and, as she says,
3:13
Speaker 1: on looking up again, I saw by the side of
3:16
Speaker 1: it what I first took to be a hut, as
3:19
Speaker 1: the hut had not been there before. I became frightened
3:23
Speaker 1: and tried to wake up my father. When I eventually
3:26
Speaker 1: woke him up, the scarecrow and the hut had disappeared.
3:30
Speaker 1: Now this experience, although brief, left a very lasting impression
3:34
Speaker 1: on young Pauline, and it was something that she never forgot,
3:38
Speaker 1: and she says for years afterward, the tale of the
3:42
Speaker 1: disappearing scarecrow had always been a big joke with my family.
3:46
Speaker 1: My son, who was familiar with my Scarecrow's story, on
3:50
Speaker 1: looking through the flying saucer. Review came up to me
3:54
Speaker 1: and said, look, mummy, isn't this what you saw? And
3:58
Speaker 1: he began to show her images of a a very
4:00
Speaker 1: well known incident in France where two young siblings came
4:04
Speaker 1: upon a large spherical shaped craft with several black figures
4:09
Speaker 1: standing around it. And this definitely triggered a memory in
4:13
Speaker 1: Pauline of this very early incident. As she says, the
4:18
Speaker 1: sphere and the black figures were absolutely identical to my
4:22
Speaker 1: scarecrow in the hut. My black figure must have been
4:25
Speaker 1: about five feet in height and reminded me of an octopus,
4:29
Speaker 1: but with fewer legs. I remember thinking at the time
4:33
Speaker 1: what a funny hut it was, because of it was
4:36
Speaker 1: like a large globe on legs. They like that case
4:39
Speaker 1: particularly because it's such an early case. Cases that pre
4:43
Speaker 1: date the modern age of ufology around nineteen forty seven
4:47
Speaker 1: or so, I think are really important because they show
4:50
Speaker 1: that this is something that's been going on for a
4:53
Speaker 1: very long time. I think this case also illustrates a
4:57
Speaker 1: couple of interesting aspects. Is that it's sometimes very difficult
5:01
Speaker 1: to wake up the other person who is apparently maybe
5:08
Speaker 1: somehow entranced. It's a weird aspect that I think we
5:11
Speaker 1: don't fully understand why some people kind of fall asleep
5:16
Speaker 1: during a UFO encounter. Another really interesting aspect to me
5:22
Speaker 1: about this particular case is that this lady kept this
5:26
Speaker 1: pretty much a secret, telling only her family for many
5:30
Speaker 1: years until suddenly she got some confirmation from another source
5:35
Speaker 1: and bravely stepped forward. So that is also a very
5:39
Speaker 1: common aspect we see the UFO and Connors. Now let's
5:43
Speaker 1: move to the next one. This has got to be
5:45
Speaker 1: my favorite in this particular compilation. It's always hard to
5:49
Speaker 1: choose a favorite because I've got a couple, but this
5:51
Speaker 1: one has definitely got a wow factor to it. I
5:55
Speaker 1: call this one Frozen in Fear. This occurred primarily in
6:00
Speaker 1: August of nineteen thirty in a very rural area of Piedmont, Missouri.
6:06
Speaker 1: This very early humanoid case was reported to Muffan by
6:10
Speaker 1: a lady who was ninety six years old and decided
6:14
Speaker 1: that it was time to share her humanoid encounters, which
6:17
Speaker 1: she experienced with her family way back in nineteen thirty
6:21
Speaker 1: when she was only ten years old. The witness, I'll
6:24
Speaker 1: call her Edna. That is a pseudonym lived with her
6:27
Speaker 1: extended family in a rural area outside of Piedmont, Missouri,
6:31
Speaker 1: on a farm that had been in their family since
6:34
Speaker 1: the eighteen fifties, and even way back then, they were
6:38
Speaker 1: being visited by what appeared to be gray extraterrestrials, because,
6:42
Speaker 1: as Edna says, I remember that my mother and grandmother
6:47
Speaker 1: told stories about the little gray people who visited the
6:50
Speaker 1: farm at night, and that the stories were in the
6:53
Speaker 1: family since before the Civil War. The family says that
6:57
Speaker 1: it has been happening since the eighteen fifties, so apparently
7:01
Speaker 1: these little gray people never stopped visiting, and it wouldn't
7:04
Speaker 1: be long before Edna herself had her own encounter with them.
7:09
Speaker 1: And I'll just let her describe it in her own words.
7:11
Speaker 1: As Edna says, when I was a kid, whoever was
7:15
Speaker 1: the youngest had to sleep on the sleeping porch of
7:18
Speaker 1: the house. None of us wanted to sleep there because
7:21
Speaker 1: the little people would visit and we were all afraid
7:24
Speaker 1: of them. One night, in particular, when I was ten
7:27
Speaker 1: years old, I was lying in bed on the porch
7:31
Speaker 1: and I saw a gray being with big eyes walk
7:34
Speaker 1: up to the window and look inside at me. I
7:37
Speaker 1: was frozen in fear. He just kept looking at me.
7:40
Speaker 1: The next thing I knew there were three of them,
7:43
Speaker 1: all about four feet tall and thin, with no hair,
7:47
Speaker 1: big black eyes, small nose and mouth, standing next to
7:51
Speaker 1: my bed. I remember thinking that I had no idea
7:54
Speaker 1: how they got inside. I was even more afraid and
7:58
Speaker 1: wanted to pull the covers up over my f but
8:00
Speaker 1: I couldn't. I don't know what happened after that. The
8:04
Speaker 1: next morning I woke up and they were gone. They
8:07
Speaker 1: never appeared during the day, only at night. So Edna
8:12
Speaker 1: says that she herself never saw any craft of any kind,
8:16
Speaker 1: but many other strange things happened on that farm that
8:19
Speaker 1: were witnessed by the entire family. As Edna says, sometimes
8:24
Speaker 1: late at night we would hear a humming sound coming
8:26
Speaker 1: from the low depression area around the pond, about one
8:30
Speaker 1: hundred feet from the house, but never went to look
8:33
Speaker 1: to see what it was. I think we were afraid to.
8:36
Speaker 1: We often saw small white balls of light in the
8:40
Speaker 1: yard and around the farm at dusk and after dusk,
8:44
Speaker 1: but never knew what they were. The lights were about
8:47
Speaker 1: the size of a softball. So this strange activity on
8:51
Speaker 1: the farm affected the behavior of the entire family. As
8:55
Speaker 1: Edna says, the whole family was sure to be inside
8:58
Speaker 1: after dark, and we just didn't play outside after dark.
9:02
Speaker 1: The older family members made sure we came inside. And
9:06
Speaker 1: as I think back on this, it must have been
9:08
Speaker 1: because of the little people who would take us. That
9:12
Speaker 1: is the term my mother and grandmother used. They would
9:15
Speaker 1: say that the little gray people would take us at night,
9:18
Speaker 1: but always brought us back before morning. It was almost
9:21
Speaker 1: like talking about fairies or something magical. That was our
9:25
Speaker 1: little secret. Was not something we spoke about to other people.
9:29
Speaker 1: We kept it to ourselves and still do to this day.
9:34
Speaker 1: So Edna eventually grew up, she got married and had children.
9:37
Speaker 1: The family still lives on this same farm, and this
9:41
Speaker 1: did not stop Edna from being visited by the little
9:44
Speaker 1: gray people, and she, of course was not the only
9:47
Speaker 1: one who saw them either. As Edna says, I still
9:51
Speaker 1: see them sometimes, only inside the house where I sleep. Now.
9:55
Speaker 1: I see them come in late at night, usually around
9:58
Speaker 1: three am, but for some reas I just fall asleep
10:01
Speaker 1: and don't remember any interaction with them. I don't let
10:05
Speaker 1: anyone sleep on the porch. Though my children and grandchildren
10:10
Speaker 1: have also seen the gray people. We are not so
10:13
Speaker 1: afraid of them anymore. We just look at them as
10:15
Speaker 1: being visitors rather than something that will harm us. So,
10:19
Speaker 1: while Edna finally did go public, she insists upon anonymity
10:23
Speaker 1: and shuns all attention, as she says, I don't want
10:28
Speaker 1: any publicity or anyone to know who I am, because
10:31
Speaker 1: they'll think I'm nuts, but I'm not. I may be old,
10:35
Speaker 1: but I am strong and take care of myself and
10:37
Speaker 1: have all my faculties. How amazing is that, I bed
10:42
Speaker 1: if I talk to these witnesses, I could write an
10:44
Speaker 1: entire book about their experiences. It's clearly a lot more
10:48
Speaker 1: going on than is in this report. But what's so
10:52
Speaker 1: fascinating to me is they have a family tradition of
10:55
Speaker 1: these encounters reaching all the way back to eighteen fifty,
11:00
Speaker 1: So that's more than a few generations here. It's a
11:04
Speaker 1: really good example of how certain families seem to have
11:09
Speaker 1: this running through their whole family history. We know et
11:14
Speaker 1: contact is generational. Yeah, this is a really good example
11:18
Speaker 1: of that. So maybe there's something about this farm area
11:23
Speaker 1: that they're interested in. We certainly do know ET's love
11:27
Speaker 1: farms for whatever reason. But yeah, such a fascinating case. Now,
11:33
Speaker 1: let's move to the next one. This one's also really unusual,
11:38
Speaker 1: a daylight encounter with a very close up humanoid and
11:42
Speaker 1: a UFO. I call this one black staring Eyes. This
11:48
Speaker 1: one occurred on January five, nineteen sixty six, in Laharp, Illinois. Yes,
11:54
Speaker 1: it is a single witness case, but she saw this
11:57
Speaker 1: thing so close up that I think it's an important observation.
12:01
Speaker 1: This case was first presented in an article titled report
12:05
Speaker 1: on Craft and Occupant seen near Laharp, Illinois, nineteen sixty six,
12:11
Speaker 1: was written by Muffon Field investigator Robert Smolling, and it
12:15
Speaker 1: appeared in the August nineteen seventy issue of Skylook, which
12:19
Speaker 1: was the predecessor to the Muffon UFO Journal, published by
12:23
Speaker 1: the Muffan UFO Network. The case comes from Violet to Bricker,
12:28
Speaker 1: who sent a letter about her encounter to Moufon, and
12:31
Speaker 1: she was later interviewed by both Walt Andrews Junior, the
12:35
Speaker 1: co founder and director of Muffan, and investigator Robert Smoeing.
12:40
Speaker 1: With a cold morning about eight fifteen a m on
12:44
Speaker 1: January five, nineteen sixty six, is Violet headed northbound on
12:49
Speaker 1: State Highway ninety four about two miles north of Laharp, Illinois.
12:54
Speaker 1: She had three Schnauzer pups in the back seat. Up
12:58
Speaker 1: ahead in the distance, she suddenly saw a silvery flash
13:01
Speaker 1: of light, and her first thought was that it was
13:04
Speaker 1: a small plane coming towards her from the northwest, But
13:08
Speaker 1: as it drew closer, she saw that it looked more
13:10
Speaker 1: like a dirigible and it appeared to be coming directly
13:13
Speaker 1: towards her on a collision course. It moved very quickly
13:17
Speaker 1: and before she had a chance to react, was hovering
13:20
Speaker 1: just above the telephone lines across the road opposite her.
13:25
Speaker 1: She could now see that this object was actually kind
13:28
Speaker 1: of an oval or egg shaped craft, about the size
13:31
Speaker 1: of a piper cub aircraft more than ten feet thick.
13:35
Speaker 1: It had one huge, very bright yellow white light on
13:39
Speaker 1: the end facing her. There were no markings, doors, windows,
13:43
Speaker 1: or landing gear visible, but she did see what appeared
13:46
Speaker 1: to be a single line bisecting it in the midsection.
13:51
Speaker 1: She could not hear any sound coming from the craft,
13:54
Speaker 1: and this craft now began to slowly turn or rotate clockwise,
13:59
Speaker 1: and soon the other end of the craft came into
14:01
Speaker 1: view and Violet got a huge shock. She immediately became
14:05
Speaker 1: petrified because now on the other end of the craft,
14:09
Speaker 1: she saw a man standing on a small platform about
14:13
Speaker 1: two feet wide sticking out from the side of the craft.
14:16
Speaker 1: And this man looked human. He had a ruddy complexion.
14:20
Speaker 1: He was only about five and a half feet tall.
14:22
Speaker 1: He was wearing a white one piece suit with a hood,
14:26
Speaker 1: which reminded Violet somewhat of an asbestos suit. She said,
14:31
Speaker 1: it made his body appear stocky. This man had one
14:34
Speaker 1: hand on his hip and the other was resting against
14:37
Speaker 1: the side of the craft. But what really frightened Violet
14:41
Speaker 1: was that the man was staring down directly at her
14:44
Speaker 1: with quote black staring eyes. She said that she will
14:48
Speaker 1: quote never forget the way this man stared at her.
14:52
Speaker 1: The Violet was so stunned she doesn't remember bringing her
14:55
Speaker 1: car to a stop. What she does remember is that
14:58
Speaker 1: there was another car which had parked alongside the road
15:02
Speaker 1: about twenty feet ahead of her, right near the entrance
15:05
Speaker 1: to a farm. A woman was in the front seat
15:08
Speaker 1: and a man stood by the driver's side and was
15:10
Speaker 1: sticking his head in the car, and it looked to
15:13
Speaker 1: violate like they were having an argument. But seeing the
15:16
Speaker 1: craft with the strange man on the platform, whilet tried
15:20
Speaker 1: frantically to get their attention by waving and pounding on
15:23
Speaker 1: the window and pointing, but she was unable to get
15:26
Speaker 1: the attention of the couple. Now, at this point, the
15:29
Speaker 1: craft continued to rotate and the man was lost to view.
15:34
Speaker 1: The craft continued to rotate and the other end came
15:36
Speaker 1: around again. The man and the platform were gone this point.
15:41
Speaker 1: The craft now climbed higher and higher upwards, and then
15:44
Speaker 1: suddenly left very rapidly in a flash, much faster than
15:48
Speaker 1: a jet is how Violet described it. She's not exactly
15:52
Speaker 1: sure how long this encounter lasted, but estimates it was
15:56
Speaker 1: about five minutes. She continued on her interrupted j Jernie.
16:00
Speaker 1: She says that her Schnauzer puppies, which were normally very frisky,
16:05
Speaker 1: during the encounter, they did not make any sound at all,
16:09
Speaker 1: which she thought was very unusual to me. These cases
16:12
Speaker 1: are endlessly fascinating, and I always have questions. I think
16:16
Speaker 1: we have to consider the possibility that that was in
16:19
Speaker 1: fact a normal human and that perhaps that craft was
16:23
Speaker 1: a reverse engineered craft. But on the other hand, what
16:27
Speaker 1: the heck is it doing hovering right over this lady's car.
16:31
Speaker 1: Why is this human looking figure staring down at her.
16:35
Speaker 1: I think there's another important detail that the lady expresses
16:39
Speaker 1: a little bit of confusion about time. How long she
16:43
Speaker 1: had this encounter? Was it a few minutes? Could she
16:46
Speaker 1: have had missing time? Because when there's a confusion about time,
16:49
Speaker 1: that is kind of a huge red flag that perhaps
16:52
Speaker 1: there is more to this encounter than is consciously remembered. Unfortunately,
16:57
Speaker 1: the witness has passed away, so that's going to be
17:00
Speaker 1: lost to posterity. But definitely an important and well investigated case,
17:05
Speaker 1: and an important addition to the whole catalog of UFO encounters,
17:10
Speaker 1: which by now is numbering probably close to one hundred thousand.
17:15
Speaker 1: Guessing there's a lot more than that, of course, because
17:17
Speaker 1: as we know, most people do not report their encounter,
17:22
Speaker 1: particularly if it involves humanoids. So let's move along. We're
17:26
Speaker 1: going to Argentina now. I call this next case amongst
17:31
Speaker 1: the Stars. This one occurred one evening in November of
17:35
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty nine in a rural area called Hume, Argentina.
17:43
Speaker 1: This is a multiple witness case, although there is only
17:46
Speaker 1: one reporting witness. It's a pretty brief event, but I
17:51
Speaker 1: think has some interesting aspects to it that definitely deserve
17:57
Speaker 1: to have more attention paid to this case. This case
18:00
Speaker 1: was investigated by the South American UFO organization called Associacion
18:07
Speaker 1: de Observadores de los Astros or the Association of Observers
18:13
Speaker 1: of the Stars. It appears in the March April nineteen
18:17
Speaker 1: seventy issue of the magazine Pegasus under the title flying
18:21
Speaker 1: disk seen in Argentina. Again. This case involves multiple witnesses.
18:27
Speaker 1: The only one submitted a report, and this witness insists
18:31
Speaker 1: upon anonymity. The encounter occurred at four a m. On
18:35
Speaker 1: a Saturday morning in the first week of November, which
18:39
Speaker 1: would probably make it November eighth. The witnesses were on
18:43
Speaker 1: the premises of a school located in the small town
18:46
Speaker 1: of Hume, Argentina, and they were there to celebrate the
18:50
Speaker 1: end of the school term. And as the witness says,
18:54
Speaker 1: suddenly I heard cries and shouts in the street. I
18:58
Speaker 1: thought it would be an assault or accident. When I
19:01
Speaker 1: went out, I saw a strange spectacle. A group of people,
19:05
Speaker 1: formed by a school teacher in some pupils of the
19:08
Speaker 1: school were as if petrified, observing the developments of a flatted,
19:13
Speaker 1: elongated disc shaped object that was at an altitude of
19:18
Speaker 1: two hundred meters. Once the first impression of observing such
19:23
Speaker 1: a strange scene had gone, I could see for myself
19:26
Speaker 1: that the object was like an inverted fountain, surrounded by
19:30
Speaker 1: a very red light. The UFO appeared about to land,
19:34
Speaker 1: and at this moment we could observe its shape with
19:37
Speaker 1: perfect clarity. Now at this point the witness realized that
19:41
Speaker 1: this case was not just a simple sighting a close
19:44
Speaker 1: encounter of the first kind, but actually a close uncounor
19:47
Speaker 1: of the third kind, involving humanoids, because, as the witness
19:51
Speaker 1: says in amazement, we could see that the top part
19:55
Speaker 1: was transparent, and in its interior could be clearly seen
20:01
Speaker 1: four shadows of medium stature. Personally, I cannot say that
20:06
Speaker 1: they were beings. We only saw something that moved and
20:10
Speaker 1: had human form. After some moments, the object executed a
20:14
Speaker 1: sharp turn and at incredible speed without sound, disappeared upwards
20:20
Speaker 1: amongst the stars, leaving a white trail behind. So, now,
20:24
Speaker 1: fearing ridicule, all the witnesses refused to even go to
20:27
Speaker 1: the press. However, they did eventually agree to be interviewed
20:31
Speaker 1: by UFO researchers, and per these investigators, and I quote
20:36
Speaker 1: the witnesses of this strange and rare event were interviewed separately,
20:41
Speaker 1: all giving the same explanation. One of the witnesses said
20:45
Speaker 1: that trying to observe the UFO from the roof of
20:48
Speaker 1: a neighboring house was blinded by the intense glow that
20:51
Speaker 1: the object was irradiating. After an exhaustive investigation, the AOA
20:58
Speaker 1: gives authenticity to this case, the AOWAY, of course, being
21:02
Speaker 1: the Association of Observers of the Stars. When I hear
21:07
Speaker 1: that kind of case, my question is always why why
21:10
Speaker 1: is this UFO hovering so low in front of a
21:13
Speaker 1: group of people? To me, this looks like what we
21:17
Speaker 1: call a UFO display, where ET's are showing themselves intentionally
21:22
Speaker 1: and very much the manner of just introducing themselves. Obviously
21:26
Speaker 1: that's pure speculation, but they have to have been there
21:29
Speaker 1: for some reason, and they weren't really doing anything other
21:32
Speaker 1: than coming down, looking down at these witnesses and then
21:36
Speaker 1: taking off. So I don't know, we can make up
21:38
Speaker 1: their own minds about it, but there's a whole category
21:42
Speaker 1: of cases just like that. Moving along, we're now going
21:46
Speaker 1: to Georgia. This case I call the aliens by the
21:51
Speaker 1: ice cream Shop This one occurred on December twenty seven,
21:55
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty nine, in Atlanta, Georgia, some multipleiness case. It's
22:01
Speaker 1: got some really unusual elements to it that I've never
22:04
Speaker 1: heard before, but it was pretty thoroughly investigated as well,
22:08
Speaker 1: and the witnesses are clearly sincere. This case comes from
22:12
Speaker 1: prolific and highly respected researcher Ted Phillips, and it first
22:16
Speaker 1: appeared in the June nineteen seventy one issue of Skylook
22:20
Speaker 1: in an article called quote school Teacher Reports, UFO and Occupants.
22:26
Speaker 1: Ted Phillips gives the main witness, the school teacher, the
22:29
Speaker 1: pseudonym Mary Smith. She was twenty five years old. Mary
22:34
Speaker 1: and her mother had driven to Atlanta, Georgia to visit
22:37
Speaker 1: Mary's aunt. They were unable to find their aunt's house
22:41
Speaker 1: as she had recently moved, so they stopped at a
22:44
Speaker 1: coffee shop to discuss what they were going to do now.
22:48
Speaker 1: It was two am December twenty seventh, nineteen sixty nine.
22:52
Speaker 1: As they left the coffee shop to sit outside, there
22:55
Speaker 1: was a main street in front of them with street lights,
22:58
Speaker 1: several stores around them lading the dairy queen across the street.
23:03
Speaker 1: Mary's mother was looking up at the sky, and this
23:06
Speaker 1: is when Mary looked at her and was talking about
23:08
Speaker 1: their next course of action. And suddenly Mary saw her
23:11
Speaker 1: mother's facial expression change. As Mary says, she had such
23:17
Speaker 1: a strange reaction. Her face was pale, and her eyes
23:21
Speaker 1: got big, and her mouth just dropped. I kept asking
23:25
Speaker 1: her what it was, and finally she pointed up and said,
23:28
Speaker 1: look up in the sky, about four stories high. Mary's
23:32
Speaker 1: mother was looking at a black saucer shaped craft with
23:36
Speaker 1: a flat bottom. Mary didn't see it at first, as
23:39
Speaker 1: the object and the sky was very dark, but her
23:42
Speaker 1: mother saw the bottom of this object open up, and
23:46
Speaker 1: suddenly something came out, and this part Mary did see.
23:50
Speaker 1: As Mary says, it looked like a plastic bubble dropped
23:54
Speaker 1: from the object. It rolled out through this door, and
23:57
Speaker 1: at this point I saw it as if began falling.
24:01
Speaker 1: The bubble itself was illuminated from the inside by a
24:05
Speaker 1: white core of heat. I say heat because there were
24:08
Speaker 1: no flames coming from it, but I knew it was hot.
24:12
Speaker 1: On the edges, you could see the color that comes
24:14
Speaker 1: into a fire. It appeared cooler. The bubble was shimmering.
24:19
Speaker 1: It seemed to become irregular in shape. The shape of
24:22
Speaker 1: the bubble was constantly shifting, and I watched as it
24:26
Speaker 1: drifted in a fairly regular pattern as it got closer
24:29
Speaker 1: to the ground. I was concentrating on the light within
24:32
Speaker 1: the bubble. I'm not sure I cannot describe exactly what
24:36
Speaker 1: happened to the casing of this heat core, but it
24:39
Speaker 1: was like it had just melted off. As it fell,
24:42
Speaker 1: the core itself in this bubble divided into three parts,
24:47
Speaker 1: so Mary says that these three sections looked almost like
24:51
Speaker 1: arrows or prongs, almost touching each other, but they separated
24:54
Speaker 1: and went to the ground just beyond the paved section
24:57
Speaker 1: of the parking lot across the street, about fifty or
25:00
Speaker 1: sixty feet away from where they were sitting. The glow
25:03
Speaker 1: of these objects then dissipated, and during this time Mary
25:07
Speaker 1: and her mother were talking excitedly, sharing and confirming each
25:11
Speaker 1: other's observations. Some other boys came up, but quickly left
25:17
Speaker 1: the area, and then returned and watched with them. And
25:21
Speaker 1: this is when the strange humanoids showed up. As Mary says,
25:25
Speaker 1: in a very little while, I was looking over in
25:28
Speaker 1: the parking lot, and I saw a dark figure up
25:31
Speaker 1: close to the dairy Queen building. I asked my mother
25:34
Speaker 1: if she saw it also, and she said that she did.
25:38
Speaker 1: This thing was about five feet seven inches to five
25:41
Speaker 1: feet ten inches. It was large. It had large shoulders
25:45
Speaker 1: and was husky in build It tapered down into a
25:48
Speaker 1: very narrow waist with extremely thin hips. The head was
25:53
Speaker 1: extremely small for the body and came up to a point.
25:56
Speaker 1: The arms were shorter than normal. It appeared to be
25:59
Speaker 1: all black. We couldn't see any features. So as Mary,
26:04
Speaker 1: her mother, and the other boys watched this figure, they
26:07
Speaker 1: suddenly saw two other figures of this same appearance, although
26:11
Speaker 1: one was quote extremely larger than the other two. So
26:16
Speaker 1: the beings appeared to be in this location for a reason.
26:19
Speaker 1: As they began to perform a pretty unusual activity. As
26:23
Speaker 1: Mary says, they had rake like objects in their hands,
26:27
Speaker 1: though they were not rakes. They were long handled like
26:31
Speaker 1: a broom handle, and the bottom was a solid triangle.
26:35
Speaker 1: They were furiously sweeping an area of about nine feet
26:39
Speaker 1: in diameter. It was as if they were beating something back.
26:44
Speaker 1: They had a basket of some sort with them that
26:46
Speaker 1: was sitting in the center, and as they swept things
26:49
Speaker 1: up into a satisfactory pile, they would reach down and
26:52
Speaker 1: put them into the basket. What they were putting in
26:55
Speaker 1: the basket, Mary couldn't say. At this point, the boys
26:59
Speaker 1: who had been watching along with Mary and her mother,
27:02
Speaker 1: suddenly decided to approach the figures. As Mary says, they
27:07
Speaker 1: started their car and tore out to the spot in
27:09
Speaker 1: the parking lot. As they went through, this was the
27:12
Speaker 1: most terrifying part about it, I think because of the
27:16
Speaker 1: fact that I was watching one of the figures and
27:18
Speaker 1: I didn't see him run, and he didn't go up
27:21
Speaker 1: in a cloud of smoke, but he just ceized to
27:24
Speaker 1: be visible to me. My mother didn't see him either.
27:28
Speaker 1: When the boys got up to the spot where the
27:30
Speaker 1: figures had been, they weren't there anymore. They went through
27:34
Speaker 1: the backside of the parking lot and they did not
27:36
Speaker 1: come back. I feel sure that whatever we were seeing
27:40
Speaker 1: they saw. Also. The highest strangeness of the incident was
27:44
Speaker 1: about to get even weirder because, at one point, as
27:47
Speaker 1: Mary says, while the figures were sweeping the area, whatever
27:51
Speaker 1: it was they were chasing seemed to run out to
27:54
Speaker 1: the edge of the street. The large thing followed it
27:57
Speaker 1: out with a triangular shaped rake was trying to beat
28:00
Speaker 1: it back into the group. And couldn't get it. When
28:03
Speaker 1: it reached down, it had something in its hand that glowed.
28:07
Speaker 1: As it raised this thing up, the light in it
28:10
Speaker 1: just disappeared, and it ran back and put this thing
28:12
Speaker 1: in the basket. The figure's movements were in some sort
28:16
Speaker 1: of syncopated rhythm, was like they were actually making time
28:19
Speaker 1: with each movement of their body. Was very jerky, but
28:23
Speaker 1: it was syncopated. Now, the researchers of this case speculated
28:27
Speaker 1: that this movement might indicate that the figures were in
28:30
Speaker 1: fact robotic, though Mary and her mother never said this.
28:34
Speaker 1: The witness does not say how the encounter ended, other
28:38
Speaker 1: than the figures simply disappeared and presumably the UFO two.
28:42
Speaker 1: The two witnesses very nearly did not tell anyone about
28:46
Speaker 1: what happened. As Mary says, we didn't report any of
28:50
Speaker 1: this because we were afraid of being ostracized for reporting it. Now,
28:54
Speaker 1: I can guarantee that I was in a sober state
28:57
Speaker 1: at that time, my mother being a complete absolute Baptist,
29:02
Speaker 1: non drinker with a sober reputation, I can guarantee that
29:07
Speaker 1: we were not inebriated when we saw this. I think
29:10
Speaker 1: if I had been the witness to that case. I
29:13
Speaker 1: don't know how I would have reacted, but I'd like
29:16
Speaker 1: to think I would have walked a little closer and
29:19
Speaker 1: gotten a closer look at these humanoids so I could
29:22
Speaker 1: identify them more than just these sort of dark figures,
29:27
Speaker 1: but really unusually described in terms of having a very
29:30
Speaker 1: small head. We don't usually hear that broad shoulders, a
29:34
Speaker 1: thin waist, and what the heck were they doing with
29:37
Speaker 1: these weird shovel or rake like tools. It's interesting to
29:41
Speaker 1: me because there are a number of cases where people
29:44
Speaker 1: describe exactly that the weird kind of glass like orbs.
29:49
Speaker 1: That's another detail I've only heard a few times. So
29:53
Speaker 1: there's a lot to unpack with this case, but certainly
29:56
Speaker 1: an interesting one. All right. Now, let's move a long
30:00
Speaker 1: to a case that is definitely unusual. I call this
30:05
Speaker 1: one ape like beings. This one occurred on one evening
30:11
Speaker 1: in July of nineteen seventy three in Greenville, Mississippi. Some
30:16
Speaker 1: multiple in its case and a pretty unusual series of events.
30:21
Speaker 1: This case was reported to MUFAN by one of three
30:24
Speaker 1: brothers who all witnessed an extraordinary encounter in the city
30:28
Speaker 1: of Greenville, Mississippi. One brother was fourteen years old, the
30:33
Speaker 1: other was twelve, and the third, the reporting witness, was
30:36
Speaker 1: four years old. I'll call him Jason, as Jason says,
30:41
Speaker 1: we were moving some dirt around in the backyard of
30:44
Speaker 1: our home. My brothers remember hearing a screeching sound, which
30:48
Speaker 1: sent them running to the front yard to hopefully see
30:51
Speaker 1: a cool car speed away. After their disappointment, they returned
30:56
Speaker 1: to the back where we noticed near the same time,
31:00
Speaker 1: a disc shaped ship hovering over the back of our
31:04
Speaker 1: next door neighbor's house. I saw the door of the
31:07
Speaker 1: craft slide open, and a short, three foot tall ape
31:11
Speaker 1: like being walked out onto a narrow catwalk that appeared
31:15
Speaker 1: to encircle the ship. He walked a few steps to
31:19
Speaker 1: my right and kneeled down and opened a small door
31:22
Speaker 1: on the side of the craft. He used a small
31:25
Speaker 1: tool to make some type of adjustment. While he was out,
31:29
Speaker 1: a second being walked to the door and watched him.
31:33
Speaker 1: The second guy was taller, maybe five feet. They were
31:37
Speaker 1: both covered in thick brown hair but well groomed. Both
31:41
Speaker 1: were wearing a coverall, but not anything resembling a spacesuit
31:45
Speaker 1: like our NASA guys wear. The beings made no audible
31:49
Speaker 1: communication between each other, and didn't pay any attention to
31:53
Speaker 1: the three boys silently staring at undoubtable proof of life
31:57
Speaker 1: on other planets. I always say they were no more
32:01
Speaker 1: than thirty feet away watching this whole event. After this
32:06
Speaker 1: hairy humanoid fiddled with the tool, the first ape like
32:09
Speaker 1: being returned inside the second as well, and the door closed,
32:14
Speaker 1: and as Jason says, after the door slid back down,
32:18
Speaker 1: the ship started ascending at a slow speed. When it
32:21
Speaker 1: reached about one hundred feet, it ascended almost straight up
32:25
Speaker 1: and out of sight in one or two seconds. Needless
32:28
Speaker 1: to say, the encounter made a deep impression on all
32:31
Speaker 1: three brothers. As the youngest, Jason says, my brothers knew
32:36
Speaker 1: they were looking at aliens. I didn't. I knew I
32:39
Speaker 1: had never seen anything like this before, but I wasn't
32:42
Speaker 1: old enough to know what an alien was. My oldest
32:45
Speaker 1: brother and I remember almost all the details the same. Sadly,
32:50
Speaker 1: the middle brother was later diagnosed with schizophrenia and he
32:54
Speaker 1: can no longer accurately recall the event. The reporting witness
32:59
Speaker 1: in that case was yes, very young, but of course
33:02
Speaker 1: his two older brothers saw it as well, so they
33:05
Speaker 1: were able to confirm each other's testimony. And here we
33:09
Speaker 1: have another case of a UFO hovering at very low elevation.
33:14
Speaker 1: And what's the most interesting aspect to me is the
33:16
Speaker 1: description of these beings as being short, hairy humanoids wearing jumpsuits.
33:23
Speaker 1: That's definitely something that has been reported before, but it's
33:27
Speaker 1: not super common. So I wonder about that, so many
33:30
Speaker 1: different types of humanoids. And again, what were they doing.
33:34
Speaker 1: Were they're coming out of their craft to repair it
33:38
Speaker 1: or inspect it? And if so, why are they doing
33:41
Speaker 1: it right in front of these witnesses? Always questions, always
33:45
Speaker 1: more questions than answers. Certainly a fascinating case, and you
33:49
Speaker 1: can see it affected the witnesses quite profoundly. All right,
33:54
Speaker 1: moving along, here's another case where the witness was very
33:57
Speaker 1: deeply and profoundly impacted. I call this one. I'm not crazy,
34:04
Speaker 1: this happened to me. This occurred one evening in August
34:08
Speaker 1: of nineteen seventy five in Highland Park, Michigan. It's a
34:12
Speaker 1: single witness case. A young girl had an encounter with
34:15
Speaker 1: Gray's But it's definitely got some really important details to it,
34:21
Speaker 1: which I'll talk about after I cover the case. But
34:23
Speaker 1: I think they speak to the legitimacy of this encounter.
34:27
Speaker 1: The witness in this amazing case is anonymous, so I've
34:30
Speaker 1: given her the pseudonym Serena. She reported her case to
34:34
Speaker 1: move On about thirty one years after it occurred. It
34:38
Speaker 1: was one night in August of nineteen seventy five, that Serena,
34:42
Speaker 1: then eight years old, went to have a sleepover with
34:44
Speaker 1: a girlfriend that had recently moved into the same apartment
34:48
Speaker 1: building where they lived in Highland Park, Michigan. At some
34:52
Speaker 1: point in the middle of the night, Serena woke up
34:55
Speaker 1: with the need to go to the bathroom. It was
34:57
Speaker 1: a long hallway to reach the bathroom, and as she did,
35:01
Speaker 1: she noticed a light shining from the bathroom, and this
35:04
Speaker 1: is when she saw a very strange figure. As Serena says,
35:09
Speaker 1: I saw what I thought was a small child holding
35:12
Speaker 1: on to a door knob, peeking out from behind the door.
35:17
Speaker 1: I could see a silhouette and I thought, wow, he
35:20
Speaker 1: must be hungry. He looked skinny though. I took a
35:23
Speaker 1: step closer, blinking my eyes to clear up my sleepy vision.
35:27
Speaker 1: And as my vision became more clear, I turned my
35:30
Speaker 1: head to the left and it mimicked me. That's when
35:34
Speaker 1: I saw the eye. It was large and black. So
35:37
Speaker 1: I turned my head to the right and it mimicked
35:40
Speaker 1: me again. So Serena now got a very good look
35:43
Speaker 1: at what appears to be a typical gray e t
35:47
Speaker 1: and Serena says it had tiny slits for a nose
35:50
Speaker 1: and a dimple for a mouth. It appeared from behind
35:53
Speaker 1: the door, and then I noticed the three long fingers
35:56
Speaker 1: holding the doorknob. It had no clothes on. I could
36:00
Speaker 1: only see its one shoulder. Although it was dark in
36:03
Speaker 1: the hall, with only the light from the restroom, its
36:06
Speaker 1: skin appeared to be a dark gray. So at this
36:09
Speaker 1: point Serena took a deep breath, wet herself and fainted,
36:14
Speaker 1: and the next thing she knew it was morning. She
36:17
Speaker 1: immediately checked her underwear, but they were perfectly clean and dry.
36:21
Speaker 1: That puzzled her, so she checked the floor where she
36:24
Speaker 1: had fainted, and it was also clean and dry. This
36:28
Speaker 1: really confused her, and she wondered if perhaps she had
36:31
Speaker 1: dreamed the entire incident, so she decided not to tell
36:34
Speaker 1: anyone about it. Then, years later, in nineteen eighty six,
36:39
Speaker 1: by pure synchronicity, Serena happened to see an image of
36:43
Speaker 1: a gray alien, which immediately transported her back to that
36:46
Speaker 1: experience when she was just eight years old. As Serena says,
36:51
Speaker 1: I was eight years old again, standing in the hallway,
36:55
Speaker 1: reliving everything over again like a time warp. Serena, of course,
36:59
Speaker 1: now believed that her experience was a real extraterrestrial visitation.
37:04
Speaker 1: As Serena says, it was an alien. I'm not crazy.
37:09
Speaker 1: This happened to me, and I will not go on
37:11
Speaker 1: acting as if it did not. I saw an alien.
37:15
Speaker 1: They are here, they have been here for years. Serena
37:19
Speaker 1: believes that during that experience she may have been implanted
37:23
Speaker 1: because after that encounter, she had trouble walking for almost
37:26
Speaker 1: a year, and she also found a strange, deep indentation
37:29
Speaker 1: on her leg. She also learned much later from her
37:32
Speaker 1: friend that the family whose home she had been staying
37:35
Speaker 1: in may have also been having contact. It turned out
37:39
Speaker 1: that one of the family members talked about seeing an
37:42
Speaker 1: alien moving around the house, but the other family members
37:46
Speaker 1: did not believe him. Sadly, he eventually took his own life,
37:50
Speaker 1: and as Serena says, I wish I could have been
37:53
Speaker 1: there because I saw the alien. I would have believed him.
37:57
Speaker 1: What's interesting to me about that case is that the
38:00
Speaker 1: girls saw these ets in someone else's home, apparently with
38:05
Speaker 1: a family who's had previous encounters, so it looks like
38:09
Speaker 1: a chance encounter. But there was this detail that I
38:13
Speaker 1: found super fascinating in which she describes this gray et
38:18
Speaker 1: sort of mimicking her movements. I can't tell you how
38:21
Speaker 1: many times I've heard this. It's something I think grays
38:25
Speaker 1: do to perhaps minimize the fear of a person is feeling
38:30
Speaker 1: or I don't know, you know, it's a really unusual
38:35
Speaker 1: type of behavior, But witnesses will describe this and they
38:39
Speaker 1: say it sort of does seem to reduce the fear
38:42
Speaker 1: factor and give a human aspect to these gray ets,
38:47
Speaker 1: who I think are essentially human. They just look a
38:50
Speaker 1: little different from us. But look at all the people
38:52
Speaker 1: we have on this planet and how different we look
38:54
Speaker 1: from each other. But certainly a very profound case. I
38:59
Speaker 1: cannot blame the witness for thinking, you know, could this
39:02
Speaker 1: have been a dream, even though she was pretty sure
39:05
Speaker 1: it wasn't given the unusual physiological effects she experienced. But
39:10
Speaker 1: then years later, seeing an image of a gray she realizes, oh, yes,
39:15
Speaker 1: this had to have been real, and quite a poignant
39:18
Speaker 1: and sad ending given that one of the witness's net
39:22
Speaker 1: family clearly was not able to process his own encounters.
39:27
Speaker 1: So this just goes to show when someone shares this
39:30
Speaker 1: kind of incident with another person, I hope the other
39:34
Speaker 1: person takes it seriously or at least listens with compassion
39:38
Speaker 1: and love, because this is a very difficult experience for
39:42
Speaker 1: some people to process. All right, Moving along to another
39:47
Speaker 1: case which is quite controversial. This one got a fair
39:50
Speaker 1: amount of publicity in the country where it happened. I
39:54
Speaker 1: call this one they looked beautiful. This one occurred on
39:59
Speaker 1: July fourth, nineteen seventy eight, on the slopes of Mount
40:04
Speaker 1: Etna in Italy. It's a fantastic case because it involves
40:08
Speaker 1: four witnesses, three of who are in the military trained observers.
40:14
Speaker 1: I think, very credible witnesses and a very close up
40:19
Speaker 1: encounter with different types of ets, but some interesting aspects
40:24
Speaker 1: to it as well. This case was first published in
40:27
Speaker 1: the Italian magazine La Sicilia, but was later picked up
40:31
Speaker 1: by many other publications, including The Flying Saucer Review, Volume
40:35
Speaker 1: twenty four, number six and Timothy Goods book Above Top Secret,
40:40
Speaker 1: and many other publications. This case involves four witnesses, including
40:46
Speaker 1: Frankel Padillero, aged twenty seven, Attelio di Salvatore, age thirty,
40:52
Speaker 1: both who were sergeants in the Italian Air Force, and
40:56
Speaker 1: Mauricio espositol A twenty one year old Italian naval officer,
41:01
Speaker 1: and his friend Antonina di Pietra So. The witnesses were
41:06
Speaker 1: off duty, and it was on July fourth, nineteen seventy
41:09
Speaker 1: eight that they had decided to take a vacation by
41:12
Speaker 1: Mount Sona, which is located on the southern slopes of
41:16
Speaker 1: Mount Etna on the island of Sicily in Italy. This
41:20
Speaker 1: was a very popular hiking location. With about ten thirty
41:24
Speaker 1: pm when they noticed three bright red pulsating lights in
41:28
Speaker 1: a triangular formation in the sky, and as these lights pulsated,
41:34
Speaker 1: they would grow larger and smaller. Suddenly, without warning, one
41:38
Speaker 1: of the red lights streaked down, moved towards the witnesses,
41:43
Speaker 1: and then suddenly went behind the slope of the mountain,
41:45
Speaker 1: only about one thousand feet away, they estimate. The witnesses
41:51
Speaker 1: were naturally intrigued and curious and decided to get into
41:54
Speaker 1: their car and drive to the area to investigate. As
41:58
Speaker 1: they came around a corner on the road, they saw
42:00
Speaker 1: a dazzling bright light coming out from a dip or
42:04
Speaker 1: a ravine in the landscape by the road. So they
42:07
Speaker 1: stopped the car and went over to the edge of
42:09
Speaker 1: the ravine to look down, and to their amazement, sitting
42:13
Speaker 1: by a rocky precipice below them, about three hundred and
42:16
Speaker 1: twenty five feet away or so, was a classic flying saucer.
42:21
Speaker 1: They estimated was about forty feet wide. It had a
42:25
Speaker 1: glowing illuminated yellow dome with red and blue lights on top.
42:30
Speaker 1: The rest of the saucer looked rich. The most amazing.
42:33
Speaker 1: Standing by the craft were five or six figures. Now
42:37
Speaker 1: three of these occupants, these UFO occupants were very tall,
42:42
Speaker 1: and for the witnesses, they had shoulder length blonde hair
42:46
Speaker 1: and were wearing white robes. They looked very beautiful. But
42:51
Speaker 1: the remaining three or four figures were much shorter than
42:54
Speaker 1: were wearing black jumpsuits and helmets. So two of these
42:59
Speaker 1: tall blonde figures now proceeded to climb up the slopes
43:02
Speaker 1: of this precipice, moving directly towards the witnesses, who now
43:07
Speaker 1: found themselves strangely immobilized. These figures kept walking until they
43:12
Speaker 1: were within fifteen feet of the witnesses. The witnesses could
43:16
Speaker 1: now see that these figures were smiling, and in fact,
43:19
Speaker 1: they opened their arms in a welcoming gesture. One of
43:23
Speaker 1: the figures nodded his head and pointed towards the saucer,
43:27
Speaker 1: and then both figures started to climb back down to
43:30
Speaker 1: the craft. So this was a pretty brief encounter, but
43:33
Speaker 1: very close. Now. At this point, a car passed by
43:37
Speaker 1: on the highway and the lights on the flying saucer
43:39
Speaker 1: immediately went dark, only lighting back up after this car
43:43
Speaker 1: had passed, and as the tall figures reached the saucer,
43:48
Speaker 1: it began to glow with multicolored points of light, and
43:51
Speaker 1: the witnesses now found themselves able to move. They estimate
43:55
Speaker 1: that the encounter lasted thirty five minutes. It's a pretty
43:58
Speaker 1: long time, as one of the witnesses, the lady Antonina, says,
44:03
Speaker 1: we were terribly frightened while they were friendly and smiling
44:07
Speaker 1: and opened their arms to us. Maybe we Earth people
44:10
Speaker 1: are the only ones who have evil feelings. So immediately
44:15
Speaker 1: after this encounter, all four quickly ran back to the
44:18
Speaker 1: car and drove to the hotel where they were staying.
44:21
Speaker 1: As fast as possible. The UFO was still there when
44:25
Speaker 1: they left. They all say that they felt a strange
44:27
Speaker 1: euphoria not only during the encounter but for the next
44:31
Speaker 1: day and a half. And the witnesses did report one
44:34
Speaker 1: other strange effect. They said that following this encounter, all
44:38
Speaker 1: four of them felt strangely drained of energy. Now, the
44:42
Speaker 1: witness's story was met with some skepticism by some researchers,
44:46
Speaker 1: but in corroboration of their account, there were other reports
44:50
Speaker 1: of UFOs in that area at that time, and yes,
44:54
Speaker 1: these were very credible witnesses and it certainly wasn't a
44:57
Speaker 1: single witness account either. To me, is a fascinating case
45:02
Speaker 1: because here this UFO comes down, apparently for landing, and
45:06
Speaker 1: they're very eager and curious and drive up as close
45:09
Speaker 1: as they can get and actually see this landed craft
45:13
Speaker 1: and different types of ets. To me, the most interesting
45:16
Speaker 1: aspect is that two of these apparently human looking, very
45:21
Speaker 1: attractive beings walk right up to these witnesses and are
45:25
Speaker 1: very friendly and smiling, and yet the witnesses are experiencing
45:29
Speaker 1: this extreme fear. Guess that's understandable because again, when someone
45:35
Speaker 1: experiences something that's completely out of their worldview, it's very shocking,
45:39
Speaker 1: very hard to process, but this appears to be a
45:42
Speaker 1: wholly benevolent encounter. Also interesting was how the witnesses felt
45:49
Speaker 1: very unusual in the hours and days that followed this encounter.
45:54
Speaker 1: So always interesting aspects to these cases and how it
45:58
Speaker 1: affects a witness. To me, that's almost as interesting as
46:01
Speaker 1: the encounter itself. And I have to wonder if these
46:05
Speaker 1: witnesses were more receptive, if this encounter would have been
46:09
Speaker 1: more than just a humanoid encounter and perhaps an onboard experience.
46:13
Speaker 1: Impossible to say, pure speculation, but these kind of questions
46:18
Speaker 1: always run through my mind when I hear these very
46:21
Speaker 1: close encounters. This next case is an important one, I think,
46:25
Speaker 1: because we don't get a whole lot of humanoid cases
46:27
Speaker 1: coming out of China, and I know they have a
46:30
Speaker 1: lot of them. This one is a multiple witness case
46:33
Speaker 1: as well, and it's a good example of a certain
46:36
Speaker 1: category of encounters where people see humanoids on an isolated
46:40
Speaker 1: road late at night. This case first appeared in the
46:44
Speaker 1: Chinese language magazine March in an article by mister Shua
46:48
Speaker 1: Jia Linn and was later translated into English by mister
46:53
Speaker 1: Shen Tuping and was published in the volume thirty three,
46:56
Speaker 1: number two issue of the Apro Bulletin, in an article
47:01
Speaker 1: titled occupant Encounter in China. The witness is Wang jin Min,
47:07
Speaker 1: a driver for the jin Hua Chemical Factory in the
47:10
Speaker 1: Sheiking Province of China. It was in the early morning
47:14
Speaker 1: hours of December thirteenth, nineteen seventy nine, that Wang was
47:18
Speaker 1: transporting a load of silicon rocks on a road between
47:22
Speaker 1: Langsi and the xin On River. At about four a m.
47:26
Speaker 1: Wang was approaching the Wu Lun Temple and suddenly he
47:30
Speaker 1: saw a car stopped on the road ahead of him.
47:33
Speaker 1: He slammed on the brakes and got out of his
47:35
Speaker 1: truck to ask the driver what was wrong, and the
47:38
Speaker 1: driver had an amazing story to share. He said that
47:42
Speaker 1: only moments earlier, he was driving when suddenly, in front
47:46
Speaker 1: of him, he saw a light as bright as an
47:49
Speaker 1: arc welder. Then he saw two very short, unusual looking
47:53
Speaker 1: humanoids about thirty feet away, crossing the road in front
47:57
Speaker 1: of him. They vanished as quickly as they had appeared.
48:01
Speaker 1: Wang was taken aback by the story. He smiled disapprovingly
48:05
Speaker 1: and asked the driver if there was anything wrong with
48:08
Speaker 1: his eyesight. Of course, the driver insisted that nothing was
48:12
Speaker 1: wrong with his eyes. Wang could clearly see that the
48:15
Speaker 1: man was afraid, so he offered to lead the way
48:18
Speaker 1: with his truck and allowed the man to follow him
48:20
Speaker 1: down the highway, so that if anything should happen, Wang
48:24
Speaker 1: would encounter it first. The driver happily agreed, and the
48:28
Speaker 1: two vehicles set off down the winding mountain road. Now,
48:33
Speaker 1: Wang admits that he was slightly nervous, but he managed
48:36
Speaker 1: to concentrate on driving. Only a few miles into the drive,
48:41
Speaker 1: Wang now suddenly saw a bright blue light, which he
48:45
Speaker 1: said was like an electric arc, glowing ahead of him
48:48
Speaker 1: on the road, and to his amazement, he also saw
48:51
Speaker 1: two quote people standing by the side of the road,
48:55
Speaker 1: about six hundred and fifty feet ahead. He said, these
48:59
Speaker 1: figures looked quite unusual. They were about four feet nine
49:03
Speaker 1: inches tall. They were wearing silver clothes, much like an astronaut,
49:07
Speaker 1: he said. Each had a square box like apparatus on
49:11
Speaker 1: their back and something like a thermos bottle slung over
49:14
Speaker 1: their shoulder. In their left hand, each held a short rod. Now,
49:20
Speaker 1: upon seeing these strange figures, Wang immediately put on the
49:23
Speaker 1: brakes of his truck and then to make sure it
49:26
Speaker 1: wasn't his imagination or a trick of light. He turned
49:30
Speaker 1: off the headlights and turned them back on, and of
49:33
Speaker 1: course the two people were still standing there. Now afraid,
49:37
Speaker 1: Wang grabbed a crowbar and got out of the truck
49:40
Speaker 1: to confront them if necessary, but by this point the
49:43
Speaker 1: two figures had disappeared. Both witnesses later told researchers that
49:49
Speaker 1: they had never had any prior encounters before this, and
49:52
Speaker 1: had never even heard of UFOs or humanoids. Wang did
49:56
Speaker 1: share his encounter with other drivers at his company. I
50:00
Speaker 1: need learned that during that time nineteen seventy nine to
50:03
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty, there was something of a UFO wave over China,
50:07
Speaker 1: and in fact, about six hours after Wang's encounter, three witnesses,
50:12
Speaker 1: all agricultural scientists, said that they saw a saucer shaped
50:17
Speaker 1: craft flying southeast over the hue By province such an
50:22
Speaker 1: interesting case. I'm so glad that both witnesses had each
50:25
Speaker 1: other to confirm each other's testimony. What's also interesting to
50:30
Speaker 1: me is this was an area where there's not a
50:31
Speaker 1: whole lot of people out there, especially at that hour,
50:35
Speaker 1: and the witnesses description of these beings is unusual enough
50:40
Speaker 1: that I think we can say that these were probably
50:42
Speaker 1: not normal humans. Also in confirmation of their case is
50:47
Speaker 1: of course the fact that there was a lot of
50:49
Speaker 1: sightings going on at that time, so definitely an important case.
50:54
Speaker 1: All right, now we're moving to the last and final
50:58
Speaker 1: encounter in this episode. I called this one I think
51:03
Speaker 1: we were abducted. This one occurred on September seventeen, two
51:08
Speaker 1: thousand and seven, in Newport, Kentucky, in a pretty crowded
51:13
Speaker 1: suburban area. Two witnesses occurred in the early morning, not
51:20
Speaker 1: quite daylight. But was so interesting to me is that
51:23
Speaker 1: there's physiological aspects, really profound spiritual aspects. The witnesses provided
51:30
Speaker 1: detailed drawings. The case was pretty thoroughly investigated, so there's
51:35
Speaker 1: a lot to unpack with this particular event. This case
51:39
Speaker 1: involves two witnesses, young men. The main witness is James
51:44
Speaker 1: and his friend is Cody. These are their real names,
51:47
Speaker 1: but their last names are not included in the report.
51:50
Speaker 1: At the time of their encounter, both were in sixth grade,
51:54
Speaker 1: and this would make them about eleven or twelve years old.
51:57
Speaker 1: They did report their case to both Muffan and Newfork
52:00
Speaker 1: w In fact, Newfork investigator Keith Bickford did investigate the case,
52:05
Speaker 1: and after investigating wrote, I am classifying this as an
52:09
Speaker 1: anomalous sighting. So their experience began around six point fifty
52:15
Speaker 1: a m. On a school morning on September seventeen, two
52:19
Speaker 1: thousand and seven. Each morning, before school began, Cody would
52:23
Speaker 1: show up at James's grandparents' house in Newport, Kentucky, and
52:27
Speaker 1: Cody and James would walk together the five or six
52:30
Speaker 1: blocks to school. So Cody had arrived and was inside
52:33
Speaker 1: the house while James finished getting ready for school. But
52:37
Speaker 1: for some reason, James felt compelled to step outside the
52:40
Speaker 1: back door and he unknowingly locked himself outside the house.
52:45
Speaker 1: This was when he very quickly noticed a strange, very
52:48
Speaker 1: bright light low in the sky, and as he looked
52:51
Speaker 1: at it, he could see it was actually a black
52:54
Speaker 1: rectangular object which was shining down a bright spotlight, and
52:59
Speaker 1: he immediately thought to himself, what is that? Because above
53:03
Speaker 1: it were four red spherical objects, and to the right
53:07
Speaker 1: was a smaller box shaped object which was shining a
53:10
Speaker 1: beam of light horizontally near the Golden Tower apartments across
53:15
Speaker 1: the river in Covington, Kentucky. So this large rectangular object
53:20
Speaker 1: had four rectangular windows and as James said, I could
53:25
Speaker 1: even see that there were beings staring at me through
53:28
Speaker 1: the windows. As James says, it felt like there was
53:32
Speaker 1: an electrical charge in the air coming from this UFO.
53:36
Speaker 1: I have never been more terrified in my life as
53:38
Speaker 1: I gazed into the eyes of the beings as they
53:41
Speaker 1: peered out at me. Was so close up to me,
53:44
Speaker 1: I could see humanoids standing up against the window with
53:47
Speaker 1: their hands above their eyes as if trying to peer
53:50
Speaker 1: out of the windows. They had round heads and looked
53:53
Speaker 1: like typical grays was really bright white inside the craft.
53:58
Speaker 1: I was still pretty young at this time, and I
54:00
Speaker 1: never cursed at all, but I started screaming and cursing
54:03
Speaker 1: and kicking and banging on the door as hard as
54:06
Speaker 1: I could, trying to get my grandfather's and Cody's attention.
54:11
Speaker 1: Now at this point, an eerie silence had filled the area.
54:14
Speaker 1: In fact that James couldn't hear any dogs, barking, birds chirping,
54:18
Speaker 1: or even the sounds of traffic. There was no sound whatsoever.
54:23
Speaker 1: Cody believed that the ets were actually abducting someone else,
54:27
Speaker 1: and he was afraid that he might be next, so
54:30
Speaker 1: he was shouting, effing, aliens are attacking. Help let me in.
54:35
Speaker 1: Somebody effing helped me. Cody opened the door. So finally
54:39
Speaker 1: Cody came outside and weirdly shut the door behind him,
54:43
Speaker 1: unknowingly locking them both out. This infuriated James, who started
54:48
Speaker 1: calling his friend an effing idiot. Cody did his best
54:52
Speaker 1: to calm James down and shouted at him, asking him
54:55
Speaker 1: what the hell is wrong with you? What's the matter?
54:58
Speaker 1: And as James said, as tears rolled down my face,
55:02
Speaker 1: I said, look, you idiot aliens And he looked over
55:06
Speaker 1: at the spaceship and I'll never forget the expression on
55:09
Speaker 1: his face. His mouth was open wide and his eyes
55:13
Speaker 1: were like saucers. He basically pushed me out of the
55:15
Speaker 1: way and tried to run toward the craft. So James
55:19
Speaker 1: quickly grabbed the back of Cody's shirt and screamed, we've
55:23
Speaker 1: got to run. We've got to get out of here quick.
55:26
Speaker 1: Cody said, wait, now, calm down and get a hold
55:29
Speaker 1: of yourself. Take a look at this thing. What the
55:32
Speaker 1: hell is this? So James managed to calm down enough
55:37
Speaker 1: so that they stood and watched this craft for about
55:39
Speaker 1: six seconds, and James said, look, there's like a box
55:43
Speaker 1: of energy field around it. It's coming out of those
55:46
Speaker 1: red orbs. Cody said, let's go into the street and
55:50
Speaker 1: get a better look at this thing. So it was
55:52
Speaker 1: still mostly dark out as they ran out into the
55:54
Speaker 1: middle of the street, and they could see that this
55:57
Speaker 1: craft was shining a beam of light again at the
55:59
Speaker 1: Golden Tower apartment building, and Cody said, it's definitely abducting someone.
56:06
Speaker 1: Not At this point, the object vanished. They didn't see
56:09
Speaker 1: it leave, It was just suddenly gone. And Cody said, quick, James,
56:13
Speaker 1: look at your watch. What time is it. It was
56:16
Speaker 1: now seven point fifteen am, and James got a cold
56:20
Speaker 1: chill because it was much later than it should have been.
56:23
Speaker 1: As James said, over thirty minutes had passed. There was
56:27
Speaker 1: a significant amount of time lost. Cody and I just
56:31
Speaker 1: looked at each other for a second and he said, dude,
56:34
Speaker 1: we might have been abducted. I said, no, I don't remember.
56:38
Speaker 1: I would have remembered that. Don't you think we would
56:41
Speaker 1: have remembered that? And he said no, we would not
56:44
Speaker 1: have remembered that. I said, but we didn't wake up
56:47
Speaker 1: somewhere else. We just popped back in the same spot.
56:50
Speaker 1: He said, exactly, dude, I think we were abducted. We
56:54
Speaker 1: didn't say any more words. We couldn't get back in
56:56
Speaker 1: the house. My grandpa had locked us out and wouldn't
56:59
Speaker 1: wake up to answer the door. We thought they wouldn't
57:02
Speaker 1: believe us anyway, somehow, Still terrified, we ran down the
57:06
Speaker 1: middle of the street all the way to school. There
57:08
Speaker 1: were no cars and no people out, yet we ran
57:11
Speaker 1: all the way to the school. All of this kind
57:14
Speaker 1: of happened in a flash. It's like when we were
57:16
Speaker 1: near the UFO. Maybe it sped time up or distorted time,
57:21
Speaker 1: and that's how they were able to abduct us, because
57:23
Speaker 1: we could feel this weight of energy all around us.
57:27
Speaker 1: We discussed this a little bit as we were running
57:29
Speaker 1: to school as fast as we possibly could. As we
57:32
Speaker 1: sprinted towards the school, the weight of it started to
57:35
Speaker 1: hit him, Cody. He began crying, repeating things that didn't
57:39
Speaker 1: make sense to me. Yet he kept talking about the
57:42
Speaker 1: designs and the patterns, saying over and over again, we
57:46
Speaker 1: were examined. They want us to get back to school
57:48
Speaker 1: on time. I was focused on the terror of what
57:51
Speaker 1: I'd seen, but he seemed to be processing a memory
57:54
Speaker 1: of being inside. I don't even remember running to school.
57:58
Speaker 1: We were just kind of there. So a UFOE encounter
58:01
Speaker 1: almost always has a profound emotional impact, and that was
58:04
Speaker 1: certainly true of James and Cody. As James says, when
58:09
Speaker 1: we got to school, we ran right up to the
58:11
Speaker 1: front desk and told the person behind the desk everything,
58:14
Speaker 1: and she took us to the principal's office. When we
58:17
Speaker 1: got there, we told the principal to call the military.
58:21
Speaker 1: He thought we were both delusional and crazy, so they
58:24
Speaker 1: took us to the therapist's office. The therapist believed us and
58:28
Speaker 1: even got the principal to talk to us one last
58:31
Speaker 1: time about it. They were both astonished at what had
58:34
Speaker 1: just happened to us, so the principal and the therapists
58:37
Speaker 1: both advised the boys not to talk about it with
58:40
Speaker 1: the other students, as it might scare them, But the
58:43
Speaker 1: boys found themselves unable to stay silent. Their first class
58:48
Speaker 1: was art class, and both began to draw pictures in
58:51
Speaker 1: our class of what they had just seen and showed
58:54
Speaker 1: them to the other students, And as James says, we
58:58
Speaker 1: got the nickname the Boys. It's funny because when I
59:02
Speaker 1: was in school, people always said I looked like an
59:05
Speaker 1: alien and acted like one too. Now When James got home,
59:08
Speaker 1: he asked his grandfather why he hadn't opened the door
59:11
Speaker 1: to let he and Cody back in, and his grandfather
59:14
Speaker 1: explained that he was already in bed and didn't want
59:16
Speaker 1: to get up now. When James told his grandparents about
59:20
Speaker 1: what happened, they were at first very much disbelieving, but
59:25
Speaker 1: seeing how profoundly affected both boys were, they realized something
59:29
Speaker 1: had in fact happened to them. Later, James said he
59:33
Speaker 1: found strange marks on his body. He also found that
59:36
Speaker 1: his awareness seemed heightened. He began experiencing paranormal events, incredible synchronicities,
59:43
Speaker 1: and also the day following the encounter, Cody reported a
59:47
Speaker 1: large rash or burn on his leg and he went
59:50
Speaker 1: to the doctor, who treated him with sunburn cream. And
59:54
Speaker 1: as James says, something definitely happened to us that morning.
59:58
Speaker 1: Cody remembered everything, but I don't remember anything. He told
1:00:02
Speaker 1: me that we were examined on a table, but nothing
1:00:06
Speaker 1: really traumatic happened. They even spoke with us about propulsion
1:00:10
Speaker 1: systems and explained that they were more interested in me
1:00:14
Speaker 1: and were trying to prepare me for further contact in
1:00:16
Speaker 1: the future. He was talking all kinds of crazy saying
1:00:20
Speaker 1: we were examined and spoke with them about spirituality and
1:00:24
Speaker 1: propulsion systems, and then they said, we've got to get
1:00:27
Speaker 1: you back down there so you can get to school
1:00:30
Speaker 1: on time. They were ugly, but they were just kind
1:00:33
Speaker 1: of people, and he just kept repeating this over and over.
1:00:37
Speaker 1: It all happened so fast. It gave me a newfound
1:00:40
Speaker 1: realization and a whole new perspective on reality. Cody said
1:00:44
Speaker 1: it was our waking stage in life. I didn't understand
1:00:48
Speaker 1: what that meant, but Cody became so terrified he never
1:00:51
Speaker 1: spoke about it again. He got rid of all of
1:00:54
Speaker 1: his drawings, and when I see him from time to time,
1:00:58
Speaker 1: I will ask him about what he remembers and he'll
1:01:01
Speaker 1: immediately break down and say, I don't want to think
1:01:04
Speaker 1: about it. I don't want to talk about it. It
1:01:06
Speaker 1: was so scary, and he'll say it wasn't that bad
1:01:09
Speaker 1: of an experience. It's more of the fact that they
1:01:12
Speaker 1: are not human and the way they look scared him.
1:01:16
Speaker 1: He'll start crying. So James does report a lifetime of
1:01:19
Speaker 1: paranormal experiences after this, and following this two thousand and
1:01:23
Speaker 1: seven encounter, he has had many dream encounters with ets,
1:01:27
Speaker 1: He's become a deeply spiritual person. As he writes, I
1:01:32
Speaker 1: am the embodiment of love, light, truth and peace through
1:01:35
Speaker 1: compassion and understanding. A really fascinating and important case. Oh,
1:01:41
Speaker 1: it's very clear that the witnesses were impacted really profoundly.
1:01:46
Speaker 1: I mean, one witness doesn't even want to talk about
1:01:49
Speaker 1: it and becomes tearful whenever it's brought up. So again,
1:01:53
Speaker 1: absolutely understandable. But what's so interesting to me is that
1:01:56
Speaker 1: the primary witness, James, became a very deeply spiritual and
1:02:01
Speaker 1: compassionate person at least I think partially is a result
1:02:06
Speaker 1: of this encounter, and this appeared to open the door
1:02:11
Speaker 1: for him having further telepathic encounters or obe encounters with
1:02:17
Speaker 1: these ets. Makes me wonder how many people are having
1:02:22
Speaker 1: these kinds of experiences but don't come forward. But this witness, James,
1:02:27
Speaker 1: felt compelled to report his encounter, not only to move
1:02:31
Speaker 1: on and Newfork, but to anyone who would listen. So interesting.
1:02:37
Speaker 1: So there you go, ten cases from all over the world,
1:02:40
Speaker 1: close encounters with humanoids, all different types of humanoids, all
1:02:44
Speaker 1: having a lot to teach us about what it's like
1:02:47
Speaker 1: to have an encounter and why these ets are here
1:02:52
Speaker 1: and so many other interesting aspects. This subject is an
1:02:56
Speaker 1: absolute rabbit hole. I look forward to the day when
1:03:01
Speaker 1: these kinds of reports go mainstream and people don't have
1:03:05
Speaker 1: to worry about being gas lit or disbelieved or ridiculed.
1:03:10
Speaker 1: We're not there yet, and well, yes, governments across the
1:03:13
Speaker 1: world are now admitting to the truth of the et
1:03:17
Speaker 1: presence on our planet. These congressional hearings that we're having
1:03:21
Speaker 1: in these recent file drops and by the US government
1:03:26
Speaker 1: are really completely overlooking the fact that people are having
1:03:30
Speaker 1: direct face to face encounters with humanoids. So until that
1:03:34
Speaker 1: they can at least admit that that is happening, we
1:03:36
Speaker 1: have a very, very long way to go. That is
1:03:40
Speaker 1: one of the reasons I do this research. I know
1:03:43
Speaker 1: a lot of you out there are having these kinds
1:03:45
Speaker 1: of encounters. So hope you enjoyed this episode, perhaps learned
1:03:49
Speaker 1: a little bit. Truly appreciate you watching, and until next time,
1:03:53
Speaker 1: keep asking those hard questions, keep searching for the truth.
1:03:57
Speaker 1: Most important of all, keep having fun, and I hope
1:04:00
Speaker 1: to see you next time for another episode of UFOs
1:04:03
Speaker 1: and the Paranormal. Bye for now.
