0:06
[SPEAKER_01]: What if the things watching you from inside didn't look human?

[SPEAKER_01]: Or imagine walking to work at two in the morning only to find yourself surrounded by strange metallic beings and somehow losing hours of your life.
0:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Then there's what happened on a lonely road in Sweden, where two men claimed that they were attacked by living, crawling blobs that tried to drag them into awaiting saucer.

[SPEAKER_01]: It's like the present.
4:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Hmm.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I was looking up.
6:32
[SPEAKER_01]: I was trying to look up Hawaii encounters for the Hawaiian 40 and 50, which got me distracted to the point where I started looking up Idaho encounters, which then led me to weird alien encounters because ADHD now I have this.
6:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Hell yeah, so you know what, sometimes it's sometimes it's a superpower.
6:53
[SPEAKER_01]: I would agree with that sometimes it's not also agree with that but I found some weird I found some weird ones.
6:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's get it.
6:59
[SPEAKER_01]: I've got three three smashed in here one short one two longies good to go.
7:06
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just gonna give you a little appetizer here with this first one because it's not very long.
7:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Case number one the old Sabrook blockheads.
7:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like it had to do with us and we gave it the name.
7:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
7:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh blockhead.
7:22
[SPEAKER_01]: The siding happened in 1957, December 16th, between two and three a.m.
7:29
[SPEAKER_01]: In Old Sabre, Connecticut, the United States, not Connecticut, Russia, not Connecticut, Japan, Connecticut, USA.
7:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Retired school teacher, Mary M. Star, reported a flash of light
7:49
[SPEAKER_01]: She thought to herself that I somehow miss my alarm.
7:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Is it noon, what happened?
7:56
[SPEAKER_01]: No, none of those were true.
7:58
[SPEAKER_01]: The light was so bright that it hurt her eyes.
8:02
[SPEAKER_01]: She said it was reported to be like a stadium light pointed directly into her bedroom window.
8:07
[SPEAKER_01]: She said the room was hot.
8:11
[SPEAKER_01]: and dry.
8:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Grogly, she stumbled to the window and pulled its curtains aside.
8:16
[SPEAKER_01]: She saw what beamed from, she saw what had been the light from the second floor of her house.
8:25
[SPEAKER_01]: She thought it was an airplane that had crashed.
8:28
[SPEAKER_01]: It was jagged and torn in two.
8:30
[SPEAKER_01]: The piloting in hovered above her clothesline.
8:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, hovered above it, so it wasn't on the ground.
8:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Shocked and confused, she studied the object floating mid-air.
8:42
[SPEAKER_01]: She said it was large, six or seven feet thick, three times as long with two square windows on its side.
8:50
[SPEAKER_01]: It was not a plane.
8:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Behind the craft's windows, she saw some movement.
8:57
[SPEAKER_01]: She couldn't quite make out what it was, they stretched and bobbed and slithered slowly, almost like two big worms.
9:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Passing in front of each other, they held their arms, or they both held their right arm out in the air.
9:13
[SPEAKER_01]: At least what she thought was an arm, the appendage had no discernible features, no hands, no fingers, no claws, no suction cups.
9:22
[SPEAKER_01]: The long red growth was connected to a strange, sickly yellow body that flared out like a long skirt.
9:30
[SPEAKER_01]: So almost like a rag.
9:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Gross.
9:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Sitting there.
9:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Most frightening, however, where their big translucent cube-shaped heads inside of each of these giant blocks was a perfectly round glowing blood red sphere.
9:52
[SPEAKER_01]: As the things past inside, the balls seemed motionless and fixed in place.
9:57
[SPEAKER_01]: With horror, she realized that her room was no longer bright white but an upsetting red.
10:02
[SPEAKER_01]: She could feel the Orbs vibrant glow as almost like an electrical pulse that they were sending into her body.
10:11
[SPEAKER_01]: She could tell from this almost telepathically that whatever these things were, were fixated on her.
10:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Frozen in place she watches the craft begin to move, it angled up and down as it's antenna spouted from its left side, also pulsating with the same red color that it overtaken her room.
10:29
[SPEAKER_01]: The things inside, steadyed, watching her, just solely focused on her.
10:35
[SPEAKER_01]: The light beam not only
10:39
[SPEAKER_01]: came from within the ship, but also from its outer hole.
10:42
[SPEAKER_01]: She's reported that the light was painful.
10:44
[SPEAKER_01]: It was hot.
10:45
[SPEAKER_01]: And as it intensified, she was blinded and felt her skin began to burn.
10:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Then the antenna and the light retracted in the ship dold.
10:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Both windows disappeared like a closing sliding door and extinguish the red glow.
11:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Shifting on a horizontal plane and rotating a different
11:06
[SPEAKER_01]: kind of vibrated a little bit and then shot directly upward.
11:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I pictured this thing as I didn't basically see the cartoon the brave little toaster.
11:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Well if you have there's the blanket that is one of the main characters in the brave little toaster and that's exactly how I picture these things.
11:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, uh, just a square connected to a rag with the brain in the center, which is not what the blanket looks like in Brave Little Toaster, but that's how I'm sound of my brain.
11:41
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'll just bear with me there.
11:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Weird encounter is weird that it almost makes you wonder, did they abducter?
11:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Or because you almost need the feeling that
11:56
[SPEAKER_00]: They began to know, notice that she was in pain and then they just kind of like dipped.
12:02
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know how we barely leave.
12:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like this is getting too intense for her.
12:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we should probably about this.
12:07
[SPEAKER_00]: We're literally melting your skin off at this point.
12:09
[SPEAKER_00]: We should probably leave.
12:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
12:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I see.
12:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
12:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe they did have a conscience.
12:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I doubt it.
12:16
[SPEAKER_00]: But um, oh, blockheads, not so bad, I guess.
12:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I would probably lose my shit if I saw a blockhead.
12:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I should have got the pictures and put it in my notes because she draw pictures of them.
12:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, they have artist renditions.
12:35
[SPEAKER_01]: So it gives you an idea.
12:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's look it up here.
12:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Live on air.
12:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Sock amongst yourselves.
12:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Holocaust.
12:48
[SPEAKER_01]: So we can show Kyle the blockheads.
12:52
[SPEAKER_01]: it's literally like a rag connected that one looks like a Pokemon card down there yeah they're in metazoo shout out metazoo cryptid card trading cards interesting yeah apparently my computer doesn't work so oh it is from like 1940s yeah see how it's just like a rag with a block yeah it's weird
13:16
[SPEAKER_01]: There's some, it reminds me of like, the brain episode, remember the, yeah.
13:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Palo sal, sal, sal, alto, brains, whatever the, whatever the fuck it was.
13:26
[SPEAKER_01]: There's some strange stuff.
13:28
[SPEAKER_00]: It is weird.
13:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but that's why I love alien encounters so much because they're always, well, not always, but some of them are so fucking random.
13:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's and it's one's like these to stand out because it's not like a gray or yeah, I'm a reptilian or me just being and those ones there.
13:46
[SPEAKER_00]: These weird little one office.
13:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Those are the ones that make me lean toward interdimensional.
13:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, interdimensional blockheads.
13:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because they come it's almost like they come from something outside our dimension dimension like our rules and everything do not apply.
14:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, case number two is moving into the realm of robots again, which has been kind of a kind of a thing here.
14:21
[SPEAKER_01]: We've had a few robot encounters.
14:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
14:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Robot grandma, the robots have chased the dude up into the tree where he was shooting with his bone arrow.
14:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
14:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.
14:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Can't remember the name of that case.
14:33
[SPEAKER_01]: But we got another one here.
14:35
[SPEAKER_01]: This is case number two, the passience of robot abductors.
14:39
[UNKNOWN]: Nice.
14:40
[SPEAKER_01]: We start out with a man by the name of Antonio La Rubia.
14:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Most mornings, Antonio gets up at 2 a.m.
14:49
[SPEAKER_01]: He's a working man.
14:49
[SPEAKER_01]: It gets up same routine every single day.
14:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Brushes of teeth takes a shower, packs his bag for work and leaves.
14:59
[SPEAKER_01]: It always takes him right about 15 minutes to get to work.
15:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Antonio was a bus driver in Pesianza, Rio de Janeiro, and his work day started early, and he was required to take a bus to get the his bus.
15:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Each workday he walked from his home down a road beside a stretch of field.
15:18
[SPEAKER_01]: And on this day, he stopped at its grassy edge in awe.
15:22
[SPEAKER_01]: From above, looking out over the field, he saw something that he didn't know what he was looking at.
15:29
[SPEAKER_01]: He said it looked like a large metallic object,
15:35
[SPEAKER_01]: It was the bus that he took, had wrecked into the field.
15:38
[SPEAKER_01]: It was like laying on its side and he was looking at the roof of the bus.
15:41
[SPEAKER_01]: He was like, oh shit, that sucks.
15:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Didn't he figured, no, that can't be it because the dull lead coloring was far too large.
15:52
[SPEAKER_01]: And first of all, it also wasn't shaped like a bus, but it was shaped like a hat.
15:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Hmm, that's weird.
15:58
[SPEAKER_01]: That really puts the whole, this might be a bust thing to bed.
16:02
[SPEAKER_00]: So like a, like a ball cap or like a top hat.
16:06
[SPEAKER_00]: You just, I don't know.
16:08
[SPEAKER_01]: It says some bravo.
16:10
[SPEAKER_01]: It had three points.
16:11
[SPEAKER_01]: The tallest in the center, but it was round of its base.
16:15
[SPEAKER_01]: So like a, like a derby hat, maybe.
16:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, huh.
16:21
[SPEAKER_00]: My brain can't visualize it.
16:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Three points round of its base.
16:27
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know, or like one of those, one of those Pilgrim hats?
16:33
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the only thing I get like a pirate hat.
16:35
[SPEAKER_01]: What does three points?
16:36
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
16:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the pirate hat.
16:40
[SPEAKER_00]: That's definitely what he meant, a pirate hat.
16:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the other thing that put it away from possibly being a bus is that he then estimated it being over 230 feet long.
16:52
[SPEAKER_00]: That's big.
16:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Bigger than the field that it even sat in.
16:57
[SPEAKER_01]: He is quoted as saying that he didn't believe in aliens or UFOs, but the thought did cross his mind.
17:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Hmm, you don't say.
17:05
[SPEAKER_01]: He turned it in and then he just started to run, or he tried to, but his legs would not work.
17:11
[SPEAKER_01]: He was frozen in place.
17:14
[SPEAKER_01]: A bright light burned behind him, bathing everything in a weird blueish color.
17:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Suddenly, three robot-like beings appeared out of nowhere.
17:24
[SPEAKER_01]: They were not your stereotypical robots, but something a little bit stranger.
17:28
[SPEAKER_01]: They had small metallic heads, shaped like a football balanced on its end, wrapped around the middle with what looked like a strip of film, and they were a series of blue rounded square mirrors around the filming of the football head.
17:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Those facing him were a darker more vibrant hue, the squares dimmed and lit up as they circled him and watched him, extended from the top of the head was a long antenna.
17:59
[SPEAKER_01]: It was nearly as tall as the rest of the creature, stretching three foot or so above Antonio.
18:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Minus the antenna, they were rather short, only four feet tall, so with the antenna they were seven footers.
18:12
[SPEAKER_00]: It makes me think of those guys that put CB radios on their trucks and drive around with the 40 foot fucking antenna.
18:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they, that's probably how they communicate.
18:23
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
18:24
[SPEAKER_01]: That's over.
18:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Like the way you described it, I just pictured like a, a robot cone head.
18:30
[SPEAKER_00]: It's fucking over.
18:33
[SPEAKER_00]: Our Rambo bandana around their head.
18:35
[SPEAKER_01]: I need to put his exact, his exact description and chat.
18:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Fryer robot cone head.
18:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's holding the M6 to machine gun like Rambo.
18:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I should have put I should have called this robot robot cone heads instead of Robot doctors The aluminum creatures had no necks their head was plugged directly into a wide robust torso On each side was an arm like a pindage
19:03
[SPEAKER_01]: It was not like a human's arm, but more like an elephant truck.
19:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Trunk, the limb was thick at its base tapering down to a single rounded finger-like digit.
19:14
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just a little creepy finger, it's creepy.
19:19
[SPEAKER_01]: It's body and arms were composed of a kind of skin that resembled rough scales.
19:23
[SPEAKER_01]: It gave the creatures a reptilian more than armor to parents.
19:31
[SPEAKER_01]: hung on hoax all around it were squat sharp syringes.
19:35
[SPEAKER_00]: That's terrifying.
19:37
[SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no.
19:39
[SPEAKER_01]: While the entity in general was strangest, the oddest part where it's legs and feet are more aptly the lack of them.
19:45
[SPEAKER_01]: The beings oversized body plopped a top metal pole that ended in a flat bottom like a UFO like disk.
19:52
[SPEAKER_01]: So like like a mannequin, like one of those
20:01
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
20:02
[SPEAKER_01]: It looked like a ship or a dinosaur stationary bar stool with a hefty bag balanced on the cushion.
20:09
[SPEAKER_01]: This rag bag thing is kind of the theme here for this whole episode.
20:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't just keep that in mind.
20:14
[SPEAKER_01]: He thought the robots may have been sitting on some sort of floating objects, but the pedestal seemed to be its actual lower half.
20:22
[SPEAKER_01]: That's it.
20:23
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't even know how it moves.
20:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Is it glide.
20:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's probably not.
20:27
[SPEAKER_00]: It's probably glide like the the robot vacuums.
20:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, like you have.
20:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the first.
20:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Why do they call him Rumbus?
20:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
20:39
[SPEAKER_01]: On each one, so, yeah, had one on each side and one facing him, the robot stayed and just observed him.
20:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Surprisingly, Antonio didn't feel scared, but he did feel nervous, which I guess there is a difference there.
20:55
[SPEAKER_01]: He tried to move again, but could only swing his arms around wildly.
21:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I would be scared at that point.
21:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
21:03
[SPEAKER_01]: In his struggle, he discovered that he was trapped almost.
21:08
[SPEAKER_01]: He said he felt like he was trapped inside an invisible bell or a jar.
21:13
[SPEAKER_01]: One of the robots held up a syringe and pointed it in Antonio.
21:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Against his will, he could feel his legs turning and walking toward the UFO.
21:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, that sucks.
21:25
[SPEAKER_01]: So you can't move and all of a sudden you're moving the way you don't want to move toward this thing you don't want to be in.
21:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, with the fucking utility belt of scalples.
21:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's like, it's like the scariest version of the Batman belt.
21:41
[SPEAKER_01]: I hate getting shots.
21:43
[SPEAKER_01]: So if a robot with the syringe utility belt with the one little creepy finger starts
21:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just going to swing wildly too like he did.
21:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Unfortunately, that didn't help because he's now involuntarily walking directly toward the UFO.
22:03
[SPEAKER_01]: The light being beaming at him, group writer and brighter until he felt, uh, until he felt the ground or his body shake and shiver, he realized that he was no longer outside, but he had somehow been teleported inside the ship.
22:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Antonio was facing a wall into his left and right where long aluminum hallways.
22:23
[SPEAKER_01]: It was high.
22:23
[SPEAKER_01]: He reported that it was harder to breathe in there than outside.
22:27
[SPEAKER_01]: The air felt heavy and thick.
22:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Two of the robots had floated to the left, the other to the right.
22:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Unable to move anything but his arms and his head.
22:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, he looked behind him and stared in an amazement.
22:39
[SPEAKER_01]: The outer hull of the ship was completely see through.
22:42
[SPEAKER_01]: As he peered out in the field, he felt the floor rumble under his feet and a force pushing down on him.
22:48
[SPEAKER_01]: the shift was or the ship was lifting off.
22:51
[SPEAKER_01]: The field grew smaller as he passed his house and recognizable landmarks.
22:56
[SPEAKER_01]: They were taking him north.
22:57
[SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no, no.
23:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Time to fight.
23:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Dude, dead.
23:06
[SPEAKER_00]: What is series of worst feelings ever?
23:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
23:10
[SPEAKER_00]: First off, you're frozen.
23:12
[SPEAKER_00]: They're like, this is great.
23:13
[SPEAKER_00]: I got robot, doctor,
23:18
[SPEAKER_00]: And then they possess you and make you walk toward the place you don't want to go.
23:23
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because they called you on your shit to the second he turned around and they go, no.
23:29
[SPEAKER_00]: No sir.
23:30
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you're in, not only are you in a UFO, but it's completely see through.
23:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I have to side.
23:37
[SPEAKER_00]: So you see everything.
23:39
[SPEAKER_00]: And then all of a sudden you start fucking floating away from your house.
23:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, not good as literally worst case scenario.
23:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Because my mind would be going, oh my god, I'm going into outer space.
23:53
[SPEAKER_00]: That sucks.
23:54
[SPEAKER_00]: This is not where I suppose to be.
23:56
[SPEAKER_01]: No.
23:58
[SPEAKER_01]: I just jump out, but I can't move.
24:00
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
24:01
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, swing your arms.
24:02
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm scared of heights.
24:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I guess it's a good close so they can catch those hands.
24:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, at that point, you can only move his head.
24:08
[SPEAKER_01]: They got him locked down now.
24:10
[SPEAKER_01]: That sucks.
24:11
[SPEAKER_01]: You can bite him.
24:12
[SPEAKER_01]: You can bite him.
24:12
[SPEAKER_01]: That's true.
24:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's true.
24:15
[SPEAKER_00]: How would definitely be doing a lot of that?
24:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Antonio states that a blue light turned on above him coming from the ceiling and it was a bright vibrant blue color like the robots activated eyes as the light reached him though it pailed eventually blending into a gray corridor looking up he stood in front of 24 other robots
24:38
[SPEAKER_01]: It was no longer in the hallway, but in a much larger round room.
24:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Half of the entities were on Antonio's left, and the other half to his right.
24:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Making him feel like a teacher addressing a class, so they just kind of split the red sea there and they were standing in front of him.
24:55
[SPEAKER_01]: He felt his vocal cords loosened, and he immediately screamed, what do you want, who are you?
25:01
[SPEAKER_01]: The beings fell to the ground as if stunned.
25:04
[SPEAKER_01]: And he wondered if he had disabled them with his voice.
25:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I told you scream and scream is the way to go.
25:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Like a black bowl.
25:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that would be sick.
25:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, you guys think I tell us now.
25:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Put me in that situation.
25:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah.
25:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Them robots would be blushing.
25:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah.
25:23
[SPEAKER_01]: So after he disabled him with his voice, the light above him turned on.
25:26
[SPEAKER_01]: This time, however, he couldn't see it all.
25:28
[SPEAKER_01]: He was completely blinded by the white light.
25:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Several seconds passed while Antonio couldn't make out anything in the light.
25:35
[SPEAKER_01]: He could make out sounds.
25:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Strange, unnatural, breathy size, like a cycling mechanical pump.
25:42
[SPEAKER_01]: As a site slowly returned, he spotted several of the creatures.
25:47
[SPEAKER_01]: He released more shouts, but they did not fall down again and become incapacitated this time.
25:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Instead, each raised the tinnacle arm up to grab the top of their antenna.
25:58
[SPEAKER_01]: At the top, a small orb had been spinning so fast.
26:03
[SPEAKER_01]: It had made it imperceivable at the time that he saw it.
26:07
[SPEAKER_01]: So with the antenna top stopped, it looked like some ridiculous tiny spoon thing at the top of the antennas that they have now, tenicleed up and grabbed hold of almost as if to keep his yelling from making them pass out.
26:25
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
26:26
[SPEAKER_01]: I wasn't there.
26:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank goodness.
26:32
[SPEAKER_01]: uh... again intonu could no longer move his arms he frantically turned his head from side to side trying to assess the new location that he was at the room was barren except for a single object that resembled a piano
26:44
[SPEAKER_01]: This weird piano box type thing was four feet tall, six feet wide and stood on two legs.
26:51
[SPEAKER_01]: On the side facing him, the box had a series of blocks that look like piano keys.
26:57
[SPEAKER_01]: On the top of the box, there was an antenna on each in an a thin empty metal can.
27:03
[SPEAKER_01]: A hole, it led inside the box.
27:06
[SPEAKER_01]: The 11 robots, the remained gathered close and faced the wall opposite of the box.
27:14
[SPEAKER_01]: or opposite the box ain't Antonio, their dark blue eyes fixated on him.
27:19
[SPEAKER_01]: One of the beings pulled a syringe from its belt and injected its contents into the hollow can.
27:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Then it pressed down on one of the piano keys and a tone sounded.
27:29
[SPEAKER_01]: So now he's getting ready to listen to a concert.
27:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah.
27:33
[SPEAKER_01]: After the tone sounded on a wall appeared video,
27:38
[SPEAKER_01]: It was in high definition and vibrantly colored, but there was no sound.
27:42
[SPEAKER_01]: The video was filming Antonio from above, inside a gray, white, and blue room that he didn't recognize.
27:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Floating in the air, or maybe stretched across an invisible table, he was naked and angrily flailing his arms around.
27:56
[SPEAKER_01]: His legs were perfectly motionless and straight.
27:59
[SPEAKER_01]: A robot bent over him on each side, inspecting his head and chest.
28:03
[SPEAKER_01]: They both flipped on something in their limbs and the room began to glow blue.
28:07
[SPEAKER_01]: One held a bright blue laser pointer, directing the beam across his body.
28:12
[SPEAKER_01]: The second held a soft blue light and focused it on his head.
28:15
[SPEAKER_01]: The video stopped and the wall turned blank.
28:19
[SPEAKER_01]: That would be terrible.
28:26
[SPEAKER_01]: abducted by aliens.
28:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
28:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Being checked out by aliens.
28:33
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's not fun.
28:34
[SPEAKER_01]: No, and that's like, that's a terror tactic.
28:38
[SPEAKER_01]: We don't negotiate with terrorists.
28:40
[SPEAKER_00]: No, but they're robots, so they probably don't give a shit.
28:43
[SPEAKER_01]: That's true.
28:45
[SPEAKER_01]: God's got a point.
28:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
28:48
[SPEAKER_01]: So after watching himself being inspected, what's a good word for that?
28:55
[SPEAKER_01]: being inspected by the robots, a second robot walked forward injecting a new syringe into the can.
29:03
[SPEAKER_01]: This one produced another video of Antonio.
29:06
[SPEAKER_01]: This time he stood naked, emotionless in a hallway.
29:09
[SPEAKER_01]: The only movement was the blinking of his eyes.
29:12
[SPEAKER_01]: He did not seem conscious, conscious.
29:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Only a few seconds long another robot began next.
29:20
[SPEAKER_01]: And this one, the robot approached his comatose body, and Antonio's eyes came to life looking around frightfully.
29:26
[SPEAKER_01]: The creature pulled a syringe from its belt, passing it to its other singular fingered limb, and the syringe tip began to rotate, spinning so fast that you couldn't tell it was moving.
29:37
[SPEAKER_01]: The robot pointed it in Antonio with it, and he outstretched one hand toward it, finger spread.
29:44
[SPEAKER_01]: The needle was plunged into his middle finger,
29:50
[SPEAKER_01]: After the robot pointed at a picture on the neighboring wall, and then drew three circles in his blood.
29:56
[SPEAKER_00]: This is getting blood magic.
30:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, robot blood magic.
30:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, so the robot pointed at the wall in Antonio drew three circles in the blood with his own blood.
30:12
[SPEAKER_01]: The video ended after it drew an
30:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Another robot, another syringe, another video.
30:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Antonio dressed this time, carrying his work back nervously.
30:24
[SPEAKER_01]: His teeth chattered, and he anxiously swung his arm back and forth.
30:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Falling into the fetal position, he vomited and defecated on himself.
30:32
[SPEAKER_00]: What?
30:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Wedding profusely.
30:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Smoke puffed from his back.
30:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Next, the horse-drawn cart pulling an unknown man across an unfamiliar dirt road, the stranger wore a straw hat, a torn shirt, but no shoes.
30:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Then Antonio was standing next to a wavering ball of orange light.
30:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Almost mirroring the former, the blue ball of light wavered next to a still robot.
30:56
[SPEAKER_01]: a new one, and agitated dog, bearing its fangs, frothy lipped, it barked and snapped at a robot that watched it just out of reach.
31:05
[SPEAKER_01]: After a fifth bark, the robot melted from top to bottom, like quote, porridge falling from a bowl.
31:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Next video, a hangar of some sort, three rows of UFOs were visible.
31:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Some nearly finished other only the craft skeletons, millions of robots milled about them.
31:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, another video, this time an old beaten down on whether Japanese bullet train, dented, painted, chipped, devoid of windows, and roughly traversed the rails it disappeared into a tunnel.
31:34
[SPEAKER_01]: The final video, the 11th robot, the 11th syringe, the 11th video, took place in Avenida, Presidente Vargas, one of Rio de Janeiro's busiest roads, focused on a traffic jam and a multitude of cars.
31:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Suddenly, he was no longer in the piano box room, but outside on his hands and knees, he had been thrown from the ship.
31:56
[SPEAKER_01]: One of the robots did next to him, on his other side it was his bag, which they must have grabbed when he first came face to face with them.
32:04
[SPEAKER_01]: He looked up and saw shadowy object.
32:06
[SPEAKER_01]: It didn't look like the ship, it looked like the bottom of a massive balloon, but he knew what it was.
32:13
[SPEAKER_01]: He floated up in the sky growing smaller and smaller in size.
32:16
[SPEAKER_01]: He looked to his left, the being was gone.
32:19
[SPEAKER_01]: He looked up and the UFO was gone.
32:21
[SPEAKER_01]: He looked down at his watch, it read 220 AM.
32:25
[SPEAKER_01]: But it couldn't be correct.
32:26
[SPEAKER_01]: He held it up to his ear and watched it, and it was still working.
32:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Grabbing his bag, he stood and looked around.
32:33
[SPEAKER_01]: The only other person that was on the street this or, or only one of the person was on the street this early, and it was someone he recognized.
32:39
[SPEAKER_01]: It was the town drunk, staring dumbfounded of what had just happened.
32:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Running, he jumped a street over and made it to the Passy and Sustation,
32:48
[SPEAKER_01]: asking the clerk for the date and time.
32:52
[SPEAKER_01]: It was 255 a.m. September 15th, 1997 or 1977.
32:57
[SPEAKER_01]: The same morning he woke up, what felt like days ago.
33:01
[SPEAKER_01]: He could still catch his 310 bus and arrive on time.
33:04
[SPEAKER_01]: As the day passed, he grew more and more ill, nervous, feverish, achy, nauseous,
33:11
[SPEAKER_01]: He pushed through his shift as he drove home as a vision occasionally darkened and completely went away.
33:17
[SPEAKER_01]: But he safely ran his routes regardless.
33:20
[SPEAKER_00]: This is one dedicated bus driver.
33:22
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm saying, I'm like, I call out a work because I wake up in it's a Tuesday.
33:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
33:26
[SPEAKER_01]: This dude got abducted by aliens for a week and still still made it in.
33:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he's like, well, I can still make it.
33:34
[SPEAKER_01]: My job would love to have this guy on the day.
33:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, no doubt.
33:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Later on, his symptoms persisted all day and then into the next, then they grew worse.
33:45
[SPEAKER_01]: He dawned on him that parts of the video played out by the piano box that'd come to life.
33:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Almost as if it was telling his future.
33:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Friday night he went home, instead of telling his wife what happened, he just went to bed.
33:57
[SPEAKER_01]: He slept not great, and suffered from extreme stomach aches in diarrhea.
34:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Saturday and Sunday were even worse.
34:04
[SPEAKER_01]: He called off work.
34:09
[SPEAKER_01]: and then excruciating hot burning sensation ravaged his entire body, pleading for relief as wife rubbed alcohol onto a skin which helped a little bit.
34:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Monday morning he felt no better, he showed up to work even more visibly ill. A sickly shade of green and his skin itched and burned.
34:28
[SPEAKER_01]: He struggled to breathe.
34:30
[SPEAKER_01]: He set it felt like the air was growing thicker and thicker
34:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Before he went home that day, he asked a coworker to spray him down with a water hose.
34:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Antonio's condition didn't improve for 33 days.
34:43
[SPEAKER_01]: He described it as not only painful, but uncomfortable and awful.
34:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Almost like he was walking through a cloud of gas.
34:51
[SPEAKER_01]: A severe emptiness that overwhelmed him, taken to a clinic, he refused, a tranquilizer to ease his pain and help him rest, when he began to talk of the UFOs and abductions, they restrained him and strapped him to a bed, fearing that he was having a psychological breakdown.
35:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Antonio's 103-degree fever was soon brought down, but doctors could not find a cause for his illness, and he was never given a reasonable explanation for as to why he was sick.
35:16
[SPEAKER_00]: because you got abducted by aliens.
35:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, robot aliens.
35:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you think what do you think causes sickness?
35:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you think it was like radiation or it's got to be?
35:28
[SPEAKER_01]: It's either radiation or the thing that I thought was when they put them into the craft and he said they are felt different is if maybe they don't breathe oxygen.
35:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course, yeah.
35:37
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah.
35:38
[SPEAKER_01]: It was something in there that what maybe whatever atmosphere they're from or what other thought.
35:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Because at first I thought maybe he was just getting Uber stressed because he was remembering all of it and you know when you when you go through large amounts of stress like that, it can affect your body like you're sick.
35:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
35:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, very much like that.
35:58
[SPEAKER_00]: But I don't know.
35:58
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
35:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know that stress would make you a little green.
36:03
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think so.
36:03
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd be a little worried if my skin started turning green.
36:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and burnt so bad.
36:07
[SPEAKER_01]: You said to have your wife poor rubbing alcohol Which sounds not good.
36:12
[SPEAKER_00]: No, doesn't sound like a good time to me.
36:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Then you had your buddy at work just to hose you down You got to be in some pain to be like, bro, just close right in me.
36:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Close me off.
36:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Right in me
36:22
[SPEAKER_00]: It sucks that he's like a ducked by aliens and they're like, well, it's great Jacket.
36:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you're crazy Sit down crazy man.
36:30
[SPEAKER_00]: It's terrible and it took him like a month to get over all of it.
36:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that is a long time to just be in horrific pain man.
36:38
[SPEAKER_00]: I couldn't imagine that worse experience of his life.
36:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah hands down Yeah, I feel bad for him.
36:47
[SPEAKER_01]: He was not having a good time.
36:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm
36:50
[SPEAKER_01]: it's also interesting like you hear a lot in abducting cases that they will play videos for lack of a better term to the abductee, but it's normally like scenes of the apocalypse and you gotta do this and this and this to save your world and save the save humanity, but this was all very specific to Antonio.
37:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Like almost showing him that he had been abducted multiple times before and he just didn't remember it That's what really is terrifying.
37:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's that's so fucked up emotional terrorism.
37:26
[SPEAKER_00]: It really is I couldn't I couldn't imagine him not even remembering being in those scenarios and They're like oh, let's just jog your memory for you.
37:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah
37:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, how about not don't do that how about you not put stop putting syringes and stuff.
37:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, don't put it in me Don't put him in the piano hole To don't just stop putting syringes and holes the thought of Them pulling a syringe and they make you stick your hand out.
37:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah You just see your hand go He's drawn sigils on the wall in his own blood which is fucking weird that is weird.
38:07
[SPEAKER_01]: I overlook that
38:09
[SPEAKER_01]: at first.
38:11
[SPEAKER_01]: So weird.
38:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Three circles with the L. Can join all of them.
38:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
38:18
[SPEAKER_01]: That's some weird magic.
38:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Robot magic.
38:24
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the alien.
38:24
[SPEAKER_00]: A fucking verbage for loser.
38:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
38:29
[SPEAKER_01]: I said sorry about your bud.
38:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
38:31
[SPEAKER_01]: You're abducted now.
38:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Take this L big dog.
38:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
38:34
[SPEAKER_01]: You're gonna feel like you've been gone a week.
38:35
[SPEAKER_01]: It was only gonna be 32 minutes.
38:38
[SPEAKER_01]: and you're gonna feel like you're on fire for the next 32 days gonna be cool not for you but for us yeah so we go from Rio de Janeiro magically whisk away to Sweden so please forgive me for my the abomination of me trying to pronounce some of these names oh you got it
39:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Lovely, lovingly known as the Domston Stink Blobs.
39:17
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a good name.
39:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's solid.
39:21
[SPEAKER_01]: In 1958, a pair of panic-stricken Swedes were attacked by a horde of pulsating, protozoan-like creatures off a desolate stretch of road,
39:32
[SPEAKER_01]: that is probably one of the weirdest close encounters that i've heard and we've heard some weird ones we're coming off the the syringe wielding robots in the blockhead so this should be right right on par with them December 20th, 1958, two friends 25-year-old hands gust Gustafson
40:00
[SPEAKER_01]: We're making their normally brief, but Oh, stig.
40:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Holestig, making their brief drive from Hognoss to Eisenberg, or the pair we're staying with Gustafin's mother, Anna Bergerin.
40:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Following a night out in the town with their girlfriends, so they were a party in Stan and Mom's house.
40:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Due to a fog that obscured the road, Gustaf and it slowed down, his DKW comeback vehicle, so almost a crawl.
40:33
[SPEAKER_01]: He was creeper along pretty slowly because it couldn't see shit.
40:37
[SPEAKER_01]: He hoped of this precaution but allow him and his friend have a safe and unhavenful journey, low and behold, that's not what was gonna happen.
40:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Approximately 3 a.m. the duo decided to pull over at a safe isolated spot on route 45, which runs along the straight of orange and near the village of Domston.
41:00
[SPEAKER_01]: They wanted to get out stretch of the legs a little bit.
41:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Take a piss.
41:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody does it.
41:06
[SPEAKER_01]: You've been looking at fog for the last three hours.
41:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
41:09
[SPEAKER_01]: It's got to relieve yourself.
41:09
[SPEAKER_01]: You've been partying on night.
41:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, of course.
41:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Neither man could have known.
41:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Definitely would happen when I stare at folg.
41:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, that they were just minutes away from probably the worst experience of their life.
41:24
[SPEAKER_01]: First indication that something was wrong occurred when a both men noticed a strange glow emanating from the trees about 150 feet away.
41:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, curious
41:41
[SPEAKER_01]: They decided to walk into the misty woods to investigate this strange light.
41:46
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no.
41:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't ever do that.
41:49
[SPEAKER_01]: No.
41:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Nothing good can come from it being in the woods in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere and they're being a strange light in the forest.
42:00
[SPEAKER_00]: And fog.
42:01
[SPEAKER_01]: And fog.
42:02
[SPEAKER_00]: fog makes everything about three times scarier.
42:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
42:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Never, ever.
42:10
[SPEAKER_01]: go to a light in the forest or go toward your name being called in the forest to totally different things that you need to have the same reaction to and that's done.
42:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Got it?
42:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Good.
42:26
[SPEAKER_01]: So as they approach the unknown light source, the men noted and stopped next to a sign
42:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Radiant glowing disc-shaped object.
42:45
[SPEAKER_01]: The duo later estimated that the disc was about 3 feet high and almost 15 feet wide.
42:50
[SPEAKER_01]: It was sitting there immobile, supported on a tripod, perched on the forest floor.
42:56
[SPEAKER_01]: According to Gustafson, he said, quote, we saw a strange disc.
43:01
[SPEAKER_01]: It was resting on legs about two feet long.
43:03
[SPEAKER_01]: It seemed to be made of peculiar shimmering light that had changed colors.
43:08
[SPEAKER_01]: before they could get their bearings about what was going on, they were found themselves surrounded by a bizarre group of undulating objects, all of which were roughly three feet in length.
43:23
[SPEAKER_01]: They began to surge toward the two men.
43:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Ryberg would later describe the shocking scene for reporters, quote, they were like protozoa, just a bit darker.
43:35
[SPEAKER_01]: They were sort of a bluish color, hopping and jumping around the saucer like globs of animated jelly.
43:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Gross.
43:43
[SPEAKER_00]: It is a gross visual.
43:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Literally the blob.
43:45
[SPEAKER_00]: What do you think would happen if you kicked it?
43:48
[SPEAKER_01]: You, I don't know.
43:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know the correct form of defense in this scenario.
43:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Because you don't know what the amorphous blob is made of.
43:59
[SPEAKER_00]: True.
44:00
[SPEAKER_01]: If it's, if it's acid jelly, you're just going to burn your flesh off.
44:04
[SPEAKER_01]: What if it's, what if it's homemade napal?
44:07
[SPEAKER_00]: True.
44:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I was going to suggest flying there.
44:09
[SPEAKER_00]: But.
44:11
[SPEAKER_01]: And then if it's napal, you, you're just helping yourself.
44:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, true.
44:15
[SPEAKER_01]: So out of nowhere, the amorphous creatures swarmed.
44:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Rideberg and Gustafson and gulfing their arms and legs within the jelly.
44:26
[SPEAKER_01]: They said it felt surprisingly tough.
44:29
[SPEAKER_01]: as they were moving through it.
44:31
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't almost like, it made me think of, like, gack, do you remember gack?
44:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
44:36
[SPEAKER_01]: And how like you would pull it and then it eventually pulled apart, or like, silly putty.
44:40
[SPEAKER_00]: That's literally, I was gonna say silly putty when you said that, right, and then you said silly putty.
44:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, Berg would depict the feeling of being within these elastic entities as akin to being trapped in magnetic dough.
44:52
[SPEAKER_01]: So they were literally like inside these beings.
44:55
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not fun.
44:56
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I'm saying.
44:57
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not trying to be inside most aliens.
45:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
45:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Some like this questionable.
45:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Never mind.
45:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
45:07
[SPEAKER_01]: With with a stunning suction like force, the disgustingly smelling blob beast began to pull the duo back toward their saucer.
45:18
[SPEAKER_01]: So these blob worms that have engulfed these two men
45:26
[SPEAKER_00]: What's again?
45:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Not fun.
45:28
[SPEAKER_01]: No, sucks.
45:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, while others that were around, they said that they were engaged in this strange like Dancing movement, like almost cheering the others on as they're dragging them back, because often described this experience as quote, the drag the things exerted were terrific.
45:49
[SPEAKER_01]: They gave off such a terrible smell.
45:51
[SPEAKER_01]: They smelled like ether and burnt sausages.
45:58
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a fantastic description.
46:01
[SPEAKER_00]: ether and burnt sausage.
46:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Does this rag smell like ether?
46:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, it does.
46:06
[SPEAKER_01]: And burnt sausages.
46:07
[SPEAKER_00]: That's awesome.
46:10
[SPEAKER_01]: The two not surprisingly lashed out in fear and adrenaline, but as soon as they managed to pull themselves free from one of the blobs, another one would latch on and start pulling it toward the UFO.
46:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Ryberg attempted to punch through, and we got another punch or baby, he attempted to punch through one of the things, but it just enveloped his arm up to the elbow and stopped his punch.
46:35
[SPEAKER_01]: No.
46:36
[SPEAKER_01]: He tried to scream, but no sound issued forth.
46:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Ryberg described his feudal struggle as such.
46:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Quote, it almost seemed as if the creature could read my mind.
46:47
[SPEAKER_01]: They parried every move I made before I made it.
46:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Their strength was not so great as the technique with which they wielded it.
46:58
[SPEAKER_00]: So these like jutsu blobs?
47:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
47:03
[SPEAKER_01]: They were telepathic jutsu stink blobs.
47:06
[SPEAKER_01]: That sucks.
47:07
[SPEAKER_01]: You imagine to go punch it and it just stops you?
47:11
[SPEAKER_01]: It's almost as bad as old boy that punched it, and it was just like, your punch doesn't matter.
47:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
47:16
[SPEAKER_01]: This is like, you're not going to punch me, because I'm a stink blob.
47:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Finally, rideberg managed to break free and made a sprint back to the park car.
47:26
[SPEAKER_01]: with two of the disgusting vial blobs right behind him.
47:31
[SPEAKER_01]: As he ran for his life, Ryberg glanced over his shoulder to see two his dismay.
47:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Gustaf was hanging from the no camping pole sign being pulled toward the UFO.
47:48
[SPEAKER_00]: That's awesome.
47:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Dude, just left home and he just said, nah, I'm good, man.
47:52
[SPEAKER_01]: That's not cool.
47:52
[SPEAKER_01]: You look.
47:53
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't do that.
47:55
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a, that's a, you just breaking broke out there.
47:58
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just hanging from the sign, being pulled by the stink slugs toward the UFO.
48:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, I've dude got in the car and was gonna run them all over.
48:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
48:09
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, I can understand that, but that, that, another guy's got to hang on.
48:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Gust, Gustafson, the guy clinging to the signpost, could only stare in terror as his friends sprinted away from him toward the road.
48:28
[SPEAKER_01]: With what he thought, leaving him to be consumed by these evidently hungry blobs.
48:35
[SPEAKER_01]: which is a scary thought which had all but clung to his whole lower extremities and continued up toward his torso.
48:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, that's so scary.
48:46
[SPEAKER_01]: They completely covered him waist down.
48:48
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like it's like getting swallowed by snake.
48:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it is like the movie The
49:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Gustafson glanced down toward his feet, and he was surprised to see that these blob predators, which apparently could defy gravity, were actually hovering off the ground and pulling him toward the vessel, lifting his body horizontally to the ground.
49:22
[SPEAKER_01]: So now they don't even apply to gravity, so if he let's go to the sign, he's got nothing keeping him to the earth.
49:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he's done.
49:32
[SPEAKER_01]: The 25-year-old could feel his grip slowly working loose as he's clutched to this signpost.
49:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Meanwhile, Wrightburg still being chased by the other blobs, knew that there was nothing to do for his friend, so he just sprinted hard toward the car.
49:48
[SPEAKER_01]: You're going, bud.
49:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Sorry about you.
49:51
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the worst friend there.
49:52
[SPEAKER_00]: He would not be my friend anymore.
49:54
[SPEAKER_01]: No.
49:55
[SPEAKER_00]: But you left me to be swallowed by blobs, dude.
50:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not, you know, he'd probably a good punch to the face.
50:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he threw up in the car door, the pursuing creatures almost upon him and slammed his fist onto the horn in the desperate hope that some passerby would hear it and come help them.
50:16
[SPEAKER_01]: It was at that moment, the Gustafson and Riberg became two of the luckiest men on earth.
50:20
[SPEAKER_01]: The sound of the horn seemed to have a profound effect on the stink blobs.
50:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Instantly.
50:27
[SPEAKER_01]: the gooey pair that had been right on Ryberg's heels turned tail and ran back toward the salt, well, not run because they don't have legs.
50:35
[SPEAKER_01]: But slithered, slither floated, back toward the saucer.
50:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Slither floated is a good visual.
50:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because they are not trying to fuck with the horn of the D.K.W.
50:47
[SPEAKER_01]: whatever.
50:48
[SPEAKER_01]: They're driving that way.
50:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's probably high pitched as fuck.
50:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like one of those Avuga horns.
50:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
50:55
[SPEAKER_01]: The organisms that have been dragging Gustafson toward the ship immediately let him go.
51:00
[SPEAKER_01]: And he collapsed onto the ground and a heap just in time to see the blobs sprint, slithered float, sprint, back to the underside of their ship.
51:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously relieved, Gustafson scrambled to his feet and ran over to the car.
51:19
[SPEAKER_01]: As he threw the door open, he turned back just in time to see the saucer's sore-off skyward with a high-pitched whistling sound.
51:27
[SPEAKER_01]: The burnt chemical scent was all that they could, all that was left of the weird blobby abductors, which was now on their skin and on their clothes, and just disgusting.
51:44
[SPEAKER_01]: just trying to take in the fear that they just experienced by almost being abducted by the stink blobs.
51:53
[SPEAKER_01]: If I was a good stopson, I would look, a bright guard, and I would say, why did you run away and leave me to be eaten by the stink blobs?
52:01
[SPEAKER_00]: A few bud.
52:03
[SPEAKER_00]: A few.
52:04
[SPEAKER_01]: So they sat there in silence for five minutes.
52:08
[SPEAKER_01]: They kind of come to the conclusion that holy shit, what we just experienced is crazy.
52:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, I don't know what I would do if I had to fight off silly putty.
52:22
[SPEAKER_01]: No, especially if loaded.
52:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, especially gravity defines stinky sausage silly putty.
52:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm an instinctual bad.
52:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, upon arriving home the men concluded that they would
52:36
[SPEAKER_01]: be best if they kept their experience to themselves, which is a commonality in a lot of these weird ones and any alien abduction honestly, they were both understandably afraid, not only of being ridiculed by everyone they told the story to, but, um,
52:56
[SPEAKER_01]: also by the fact that their mental stability would come into question once they started making reports and obviously something so wild would probably garnered attention of local news and then it would just become a whole thing.
53:11
[SPEAKER_01]: In his book, the Flying Sausers documents in theories
53:20
[SPEAKER_01]: The interview to that I witnessed as ostensibly quoted Gustafin as stating, quote, although our reasoning ability seemed paralyzed and our tears were just streaming down after sitting in the car for about 15 minutes and became very clear in our heads that we could drive on to Heisenberg and not only were we in the center of the city, we dared speak to each other.
53:41
[SPEAKER_01]: The first thing we said was we should not speak of this to anyone or everyone will laugh at us.
53:47
[SPEAKER_01]: For three long days, Ridenberg and Gustafin just sat in silence.
53:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Ridenberg had been unable to sleep during the 72-hour period following the event.
53:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Both he and Gustafin found that they were suffering from extreme anxiety and obvious physical injuries such as massive bruises, red and eyes, injuries which did not go and noticed by Gustafin's mother or his brother.
54:11
[SPEAKER_01]: No longer able to keep their secret a secret or their PTSD like symptoms a secret the min confessed to the entire ordeal around Gustafson's family at a breakfast table Where on their worst fear were realized when in Anna Bergen's own words Gustafson's mother said quote, I burst out laughing at stig as he told it.
54:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, we all did everything sounded too weird to be true
54:42
[SPEAKER_01]: This is why people don't tell their alien story.
54:44
[SPEAKER_00]: This is, yeah, that's a pretty good example of why people don't share.
54:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
54:50
[SPEAKER_00]: It is weird that in the beginning, whenever he tried to yell, he said, no sound came out.
54:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, parallelization.
55:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
55:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I wonder if it was something to do with him or if like there was some type of sound dampening going on or yeah, I don't know.
55:11
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, because it is at one of the moments where you're so scared or your body just kind of refuses to work Because it seems like they it seems like the the sound Effects them so it'd be something that they'd want to avoid it's almost like a symbiote.
55:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, you know, that's gross.
55:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah comparison.
55:31
[SPEAKER_00]: It sucks because sound folks with them.
55:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah Yeah
55:38
[SPEAKER_01]: after ridiculing them, they soon realized that this tale of the alien abduction blobs was actually a very real and traumatic experience for the two, it was at this point that Bergen reported the event to the Sweden's largest newspaper, I'm not even going to try to pronounce it, Helsing Borg's dick bald, that's it, a lot, dick,
56:04
[SPEAKER_01]: uh... we don't exactly know what his mother's intention was in contact in the press maybe coming forward she could help her son get some psychological help or maybe make them famous and booster dry cleaning business the world may never know that possible that world may never know whatever purpose might have been the media wasted no time in making them household names throughout Sweden
56:31
[SPEAKER_01]: uh... the pair were called into the helsonberg police station for questioning on January 9th and fifty nine uh... during the interview by the close it would involve two in interrogation one that lasted will over eleven hours police officers kept in the linnard bunk bunky bunk detectives spin route off
56:54
[SPEAKER_01]: who conducted the examination.
56:56
[SPEAKER_01]: German military psychologists with a surprisingly poor grasp of the sweetest language was also a long-hand, as well as a lab technician named Strisen Riceberg, Rizberg.
57:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
57:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't speak Swedish.
57:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Then on, dude, I know for a fact that's how they pronounce it.
57:23
[SPEAKER_01]: The purpose of this interview was to kind of roll the concerns held by Swedish military regarding an unauthorized infiltration of their sovereign airspace by unknown technologies.
57:36
[SPEAKER_01]: uh... be the international owner galactic but the tone taken by the interrogators themselves seem to be one of skeptics striving to debunk a stoppins and ryebergs uh... disturbing testimony however despite their efforts to reveal some sort of ruse detective read off with later confess quote actually we did not leave out anything without asking pertain to their encounter
58:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, um, during the interrogation, which is noted here, which is the same thing we talked about that happened in the Pasca-Dula abductions, the officers secretly microphone the room, which didn't work out that well for the Pasca-Dula abductors either because all the audio is all jacked up.
58:33
[SPEAKER_01]: and left the pair alone and hoped that they would inadvertently reveal their deception, but as in the aforementioned case, the witnesses stuck to their story, and even when they didn't know they were being observed, so there was no swap, like whenever the interrogators were out of the room, they all stuck to this.
58:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, these blobs were trying to drag us into a damn UFO.
58:56
[SPEAKER_01]: After a battery of medical and psychiatric tests lasted for almost a week, Gustafin and Rideberg were pronounced to be physically and psychologically sound young men who simply had endured a traumatic experience of unknown origin.
59:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Despite that fact, the Swedish military publicly denounced the entire encounter as a hoax.
59:14
[SPEAKER_01]: dick move of course British military.
59:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course they did.
59:19
[SPEAKER_00]: But at the same time.
59:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Even after running the paper.
59:23
[SPEAKER_00]: And even thinking that it was a hoax.
59:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Why did the police pull them in?
59:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
59:31
[SPEAKER_00]: You could have just ignored it.
59:32
[SPEAKER_00]: And it would have went away.
59:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Could have just said it was, or you could have just said it was a hoax.
59:36
[SPEAKER_01]: You didn't even have to do it.
59:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, true.
59:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Sven Schleilen, Schalen, Sven Schalen, a sweet issue of oligists who conducted an interview with Gustafin and Ryberg on January 7, 1959, felt that the pair's testimony was authentic, and even attempted to hypnotize them as the alien, uh, wow, said that wrong, start over.
1:00:00
[SPEAKER_01]: In 1959, felt that the pair's testimony was authentic and even attempted to hypothesize not hypnotize, sometimes readings hard as todayling beings extra gravitational capabilities quote an acceptable explanation of the creatures, ability to fly may be, but maybe that the UFO through surrounding gravitational field of electrical origin may have created swirls or similar concentrations of energy that manipulated the gravity around the craft.
1:00:30
[SPEAKER_01]: So, that's the stink blobs.
1:00:34
[SPEAKER_00]: They are not fun.
1:00:36
[SPEAKER_01]: No, probably my least favorite of all alien encounters that I've heard of.
1:00:44
[SPEAKER_01]: The whole dragging them back to the ship thing is the worst.
1:00:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I would rather not remember being taken on to the ship.
1:00:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Paralyze me, wipe my memory, do whatever you got to do if you're trying to get me on there.
1:00:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't let me completely feel you consuming my body and dragging me through the air to your UFO.
1:01:08
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what would creep me out the most is being poor dude hanging onto the sign with half his body inside the stupid silly body thing.
1:01:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, that dude that the visual and thought of that is fucking terrifying because they're not talking, they're not projecting images, they're not nothing, they're just
1:01:34
[SPEAKER_00]: eat, dragging you to the show.
1:01:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:01:39
[SPEAKER_00]: With ether and burnt sausage.
1:01:43
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a gross combination.
1:01:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
1:01:47
[SPEAKER_01]: And to think about the way he described the feeling of them, like when you went to punch it and it just like it like just like stop his arm just went up to his elbows and now you're not doing this.
1:02:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Good
1:02:02
[SPEAKER_01]: I like your gusto, but today we're not getting physical today, you're coming with us.
1:02:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:02:10
[SPEAKER_01]: And then to look down like it's one thing to like be and to be being drug by like the slug creature across the ground, but then to look down and it's floating like it has it has no means of any kind of like leverage to pull you, but it's still pulling you.
1:02:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:02:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Probably gonna get eaten now, but I've been host to him.
1:02:36
[SPEAKER_00]: He might have turned into the next of it.
1:02:40
[SPEAKER_01]: True.
1:02:42
[SPEAKER_01]: He also is like, oh, this can't be that bad.
1:02:44
[SPEAKER_01]: I got my homey over here that's gonna help me and he turns a look and that dude is sprinting toward the car It says I can't help you.
1:02:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Sorry.
1:02:54
[SPEAKER_01]: See ya.
1:02:55
[SPEAKER_00]: On one hand, I understand.
1:02:56
[SPEAKER_00]: On the other you don't leave homey behind
1:02:59
[SPEAKER_01]: And if he wouldn't have flaked out and took off and hit the car horn, we don't know how it ended.
1:03:05
[SPEAKER_00]: It probably would have ended badly.
1:03:08
[SPEAKER_01]: for at least one of them yeah probably both probably both you imagine if they all just formed together into what giant blob and then it took over the car or he's driving away and they latch on the cars just tires just spinning fuck them blobs yeah I'm I'm with that sucks they suck sucks I do love weird alien encounters though of course I don't like blobs
1:03:38
[SPEAKER_00]: exceptionally weird, you're right, sucks.
1:03:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's it, Hall Cole.
1:03:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Happy Monday.
1:03:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Thanks for hanging out with us, and yeah, you know, stay safe.
1:03:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Stay weird.
1:03:55
[SPEAKER_01]: And if you happen to get attacked by any amorphous, smelly sausage, gravity defying blobs and survive,
