- 1:27Speaker 2: Okay, let's get into today's story. Late on the evening
- 1:43Speaker 2: of July twenty seventh, nineteen seventy seven, a twenty one
- 1:47Speaker 2: year old farmer named Huang yang Cho walk down a wide,
- 1:50Speaker 2: dusty road in the little farming village of Bagao, located.
- 1:54Speaker 1: In northern China.
- 1:55Speaker 2: It had been a very hard day on the rice
- 1:57Speaker 2: farm where Huang worked because they were all preparing for
- 2:00Speaker 2: the autumn harvest. But even though Huang was totally exhausted
- 2:04Speaker 2: and worn down, as he walked down this road, he
- 2:07Speaker 2: was whistling an upbeat tune because for.
- 2:09Speaker 1: The first time in a long time, Huang was.
- 2:12Speaker 2: Actually excited about the Futurehang had grown up in a
- 2:15Speaker 2: poor family and he hadn't even finished elementary school. He
- 2:18Speaker 2: still lived with his parents in a tiny house and
- 2:21Speaker 2: basically every day of his life was the same. He
- 2:24Speaker 2: got up at sunrise, he walked to work. He worked
- 2:26Speaker 2: all day until he barely could even stand, and then
- 2:29Speaker 2: he would walk home and he would go to bed.
- 2:31Speaker 2: But the Reasonhang was now feeling kind of excited about
- 2:35Speaker 2: his future was because he had just gotten engaged to
- 2:38Speaker 2: a beautiful girl in a neighboring village, and their plan
- 2:41Speaker 2: was to get married after the autumn harvest. Wang was
- 2:44Speaker 2: already hard at work literally building them a house that
- 2:47Speaker 2: they could move into after they got married. And in fact,
- 2:50Speaker 2: on this particular night, that was where Hoong was going.
- 2:53Speaker 2: He was going to the property where he was in
- 2:54Speaker 2: the middle of building this house, and he was going
- 2:57Speaker 2: there not to work on the house anymore, but really
- 3:00Speaker 2: to admire his property, because again he was just so
- 3:03Speaker 2: excited about the future. Huang turned the corner and his beautiful,
- 3:06Speaker 2: half constructed home came into focus. The foundation, the walls,
- 3:10Speaker 2: and the ceiling were all complete. All he had left
- 3:13Speaker 2: to do was put in the windows and the doors,
- 3:15Speaker 2: and Sohang walked up and ran his hand over the
- 3:18Speaker 2: beautiful brick he had laid around the outside of the property.
- 3:21Speaker 1: Brick was not cheap.
- 3:22Speaker 2: He had worked extra hours to afford this brick, and
- 3:25Speaker 2: so he was just so proud of it, and he
- 3:27Speaker 2: ran his hand over it, and then he kind of
- 3:29Speaker 2: stepped back and kind of imagined the house when it
- 3:31Speaker 2: was all done. And then when he felt satisfied that
- 3:33Speaker 2: he had seen enough, he just kind of nodded and
- 3:36Speaker 2: turned and just continued walking back towards his home, his
- 3:39Speaker 2: parents' home, which was only a few minutes away.
- 3:41Speaker 1: When Huang got to his.
- 3:42Speaker 2: Home, he went inside and his mom already had a
- 3:45Speaker 2: meal made for him. It was just some rice and veggies,
- 3:47Speaker 2: and so Huang sat down and began eating, and then
- 3:50Speaker 2: his parents came over and they began chatting, and then,
- 3:52Speaker 2: of course the conversation shifted to Huang's upcoming marriage, because
- 3:56Speaker 2: that's basically all Hoang ever wanted to talk about. And
- 4:00Speaker 2: then by about ten pm, Huang was so tired that
- 4:02Speaker 2: he crawled into his bed and he.
- 4:04Speaker 1: Fell asleep almost immediately.
- 4:06Speaker 2: The next morning, when Huang's parents woke up, they discovered
- 4:09Speaker 2: that Huang was not in his bed. Now, this was
- 4:11Speaker 2: not totally unusual, because they knew their son was a
- 4:14Speaker 2: really hard worker, and it wasn't unusual for him to
- 4:17Speaker 2: wake up really really early to head out to the
- 4:20Speaker 2: farm to begin his work day. But a little while later,
- 4:23Speaker 2: the workers at the rice farm where Hoang worked, they
- 4:26Speaker 2: saw Hoang had not come to work, and because that
- 4:29Speaker 2: was so out of character for him, one of the
- 4:31Speaker 2: workers actually walked to Huang's parents home to see if
- 4:35Speaker 2: he was okay. And when Huang's mother found out her
- 4:38Speaker 2: son had not shown up to work, you know, she
- 4:40Speaker 2: was really worried. But she told this worker, oh, you know,
- 4:43Speaker 2: my son must have gone to the house he's building,
- 4:45Speaker 2: you know, go over there and see if he's there.
- 4:47Speaker 2: But the worker from the rice farm went to Hoang's
- 4:50Speaker 2: property he was building, and nobody was there. And so
- 4:53Speaker 2: when he came back and told Hoang's mother, this sent
- 4:55Speaker 2: her into a total panic because really for her, this
- 4:58Speaker 2: was like completely out of character for her son. He
- 5:01Speaker 2: would never miss work, He would never just.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Disappear like this. Something was wrong.
- 5:06Speaker 2: So Huang's mother sent this rice farm worker to go
- 5:09Speaker 2: find her husband and tell him what was going on
- 5:11Speaker 2: with Wang. And then in the meantime, Huang's mother just
- 5:15Speaker 2: walked outside and began going door to door asking neighbors
- 5:18Speaker 2: if they knew where her son was and if they
- 5:21Speaker 2: wouldn't mind coming out and helping her. Look now, at
- 5:24Speaker 2: this time, the village of bey Gao was a relatively
- 5:27Speaker 2: small place where all the residents more or less knew
- 5:29Speaker 2: each other, and so it did not take long for
- 5:32Speaker 2: the news of Huang being missing to spread all across
- 5:35Speaker 2: be Gao, and the community really came out in force
- 5:38Speaker 2: to go look for him. And so by the afternoon
- 5:41Speaker 2: there were people on bikes riding all around calling out
- 5:43Speaker 2: for Hoang. People were going to neighboring villages to see
- 5:46Speaker 2: if he was there. Another group of villagers went to
- 5:49Speaker 2: Hoang's fiance's home and they spoke to her, and she
- 5:52Speaker 2: had no idea Wherehuang was. And so by about the
- 5:54Speaker 2: early afternoon, when so many people couldn't find any leads
- 5:59Speaker 2: to where Houang had gone, it became clear that really
- 6:02Speaker 2: nobody had a clue what.
- 6:03Speaker 1: Happened to him.
- 6:04Speaker 2: Now, Beagao at the time was incredibly isolated. This is
- 6:09Speaker 2: a small town where most of the people who lived
- 6:11Speaker 2: there don't have phones, they don't have cars, They ride
- 6:14Speaker 2: their bikes everywhere, and there were no roads that connected
- 6:17Speaker 2: Bagau to any other place. Now, there was a paved
- 6:21Speaker 2: road that went through Beagau, but it actually just came
- 6:24Speaker 2: to an end on the outskirts of Begau, so there
- 6:27Speaker 2: was just no way to go to other places, at
- 6:29Speaker 2: least not efficiently. Basically, if you lived in Beagau at
- 6:32Speaker 2: the time, there was a finite number of places you
- 6:35Speaker 2: could go, and all these people that had gone out
- 6:38Speaker 2: looking for Huang had searched all of those places, and
- 6:41Speaker 2: Huang just was not there. And they discovered his bike
- 6:44Speaker 2: was still leaning up against his parents' house, and his
- 6:47Speaker 2: work clothes, which he wore basically every single day, were
- 6:50Speaker 2: still folded up neatly inside of his room, and so
- 6:53Speaker 2: wherever Huang was, he was on foot and he was
- 6:56Speaker 2: still in his pajamas. That night, Huang's parents would come
- 7:00Speaker 2: tacked the Village Committee, which was basically like the governing
- 7:03Speaker 2: body for Bagau, and the village committee decided that this
- 7:06Speaker 2: was serious enough because again they're thinking, this is impossible,
- 7:09Speaker 2: where is this guy that they decided to contact the police.
- 7:13Speaker 2: But when the police got this call, they did not
- 7:16Speaker 2: launch an investigation right away because they had limited resources
- 7:20Speaker 2: and there was no sign of foul play here. It
- 7:22Speaker 2: was very weird that Huang was missing, but he was
- 7:25Speaker 2: an adult, and if you wanted to go vanish somewhere,
- 7:27Speaker 2: it was kind of like Okay, you know, you're an adult,
- 7:30Speaker 2: you can do that. And so Huang's family and the
- 7:32Speaker 2: rest of the Bagau villagers were forced to just kind
- 7:35Speaker 2: of wait and see if Wang came back. But over
- 7:38Speaker 2: the next few days, Huang did not come back, and
- 7:41Speaker 2: there was still no new information about what might have
- 7:44Speaker 2: happened to him. Early on the morning of August fifth,
- 7:47Speaker 2: so eight days after Huang went missing, and still by
- 7:49Speaker 2: this point there's no sign of him, the deputy director
- 7:53Speaker 2: of the Bagau village committee came running up the road
- 7:55Speaker 2: to Huang's parents' house and knocked on the door. When
- 7:58Speaker 2: the door opened up, it was Hwang's father, and the
- 8:01Speaker 2: deputy director handed him a telegram he had just gotten and.
- 8:04Speaker 1: Said read it.
- 8:05Speaker 2: And Sohang's father took the telegram and began reading it,
- 8:08Speaker 2: and as he did, his eyes went wide, and then
- 8:11Speaker 2: when he was done, he looked up and he was
- 8:12Speaker 2: just so confused.
- 8:19Speaker 3: Last weekend, I asked old this segou Uh what he
- 8:24Speaker 3: wanted to snack on for our Super Bowl fifty eight
- 8:26Speaker 3: watch party, and he said, without.
- 8:27Speaker 4: Hesitation, Papa for you Manjari varimuluski is zottici, which of.
- 8:32Speaker 3: Course an Italian means Papa, I just want to eat
- 8:36Speaker 3: various exotic mollusks, and so.
- 8:38Speaker 4: I said, that's just bully, and immediately I booked us
- 8:42Speaker 4: a trip to Alaska. We hopped in a fishing boat
- 8:45Speaker 4: and off we went to snatch up a few of
- 8:47Speaker 4: those slippery beasts.
- 8:48Speaker 3: But unfortunately, about fifteen hours into our seafaring voyage, long
- 8:53Speaker 3: and I realized we had a problem.
- 8:55Speaker 1: Our boat captain was not a boat captain. He was
- 8:59Speaker 1: just a simple blind kangaroo.
- 9:01Speaker 3: With vertigo who happened to jump on board before we left,
- 9:05Speaker 3: and we just didn't notice.
- 9:06Speaker 1: We tried to take the wheel from.
- 9:08Speaker 5: The room, but he was so strong that he'd and
- 9:11Speaker 5: he drove us directly into a storm, and before along
- 9:14Speaker 5: a roague wave came and capsized the vessel, but luckily
- 9:18Speaker 5: mean old sink.
- 9:18Speaker 6: How long we lived and we swam to a nearby island,
- 9:22Speaker 6: and when we stepped foot on land, immediately a horde
- 9:24Speaker 6: of angry coconut crabs came out of the brush, skintering around,
- 9:28Speaker 6: wielding their machetes.
- 9:30Speaker 4: Wielding their machetes, Me and Old Lung turn to run.
- 9:33Speaker 1: But there was nowhere to go.
- 9:34Speaker 3: It was just the ocean, and so standing there waiting
- 9:37Speaker 3: for death. Me and Lung did the only thing we
- 9:40Speaker 3: could think to do.
- 9:41Speaker 1: We signed up for DraftKings.
- 9:43Speaker 3: Now did that save us from the machete wielding coconut crabs? No?
- 9:47Speaker 4: But did he goes jacked up about somebodow?

- 10:49Speaker 3: sent eight days earlier, at around nine am on July
- 10:52Speaker 3: twenty eighth, So basically right around the time that Hoang's
- 10:55Speaker 3: family Discoveredhong was missing was when this telegram was sent.
- 11:00Speaker 3: For whatever reason, the telegram had been very delayed, and
- 11:03Speaker 3: so they were just receiving this telegram now eight days later.
- 11:06Speaker 2: And the contents of this telegram made no sense. It
- 11:09Speaker 2: said that just nine hours after Huang had fallen asleep
- 11:13Speaker 2: in his parents' home, he was discovered lying on the
- 11:17Speaker 2: sidewalk in the middle of this bustling city called Nanjing,
- 11:20Speaker 2: located six hundred miles to the south of Bagao. Now,
- 11:25Speaker 2: the reason Huan's father and the deputy director were so
- 11:29Speaker 2: confused by this telegram was this was impossible. Remember, Huan
- 11:34Speaker 2: does not have a car, so the only way he
- 11:37Speaker 2: could get around was on foot or on his bike.
- 11:39Speaker 2: And we know he left his bike by his house,
- 11:41Speaker 2: so he's on foot and very likely in his pajamas.
- 11:44Speaker 2: And what he's going to go six hundred miles, I mean,
- 11:47Speaker 2: even if he walked the thirty miles to the nearest
- 11:50Speaker 2: train station nine hours, because that's how much time it
- 11:53Speaker 2: took from falling asleep to being discovered in the city.
- 11:56Speaker 2: Is not enough time to go the remaining five hundred
- 11:59Speaker 2: and seventy miles to Nanjing. So Huang's father and the
- 12:03Speaker 2: deputy director they talked about this, and they both decided that,
- 12:07Speaker 2: you know, this just can't be true. Clearly somebody has
- 12:10Speaker 2: mistaken some other person for Huang, because he cannot possibly.
- 12:14Speaker 1: Be all the way in Nanjing. Now.
- 12:17Speaker 2: This telegram said that Huang was being held in a
- 12:20Speaker 2: deportation center in Shanghai, and so Hoang's father and the
- 12:23Speaker 2: deputy director decided they would send a telegram back to
- 12:27Speaker 2: the sender at this deportation center and tell them, hey,
- 12:30Speaker 2: if this really is Huang, he should have a very
- 12:33Speaker 2: specific birthmark on his wrist. And so when they sent
- 12:36Speaker 2: this telegram off, they fully expected to get one back
- 12:39Speaker 2: that said, up our mistake, you know, it wasn't him.
- 12:41Speaker 1: But they got a reply relatively.
- 12:43Speaker 2: Quickly, and it said, oh, yeah, he's got that exact birthmark.
- 12:46Speaker 2: It's definitely Huang, but he's very confused. He doesn't really
- 12:50Speaker 2: know what's going on, and so somebody from your village
- 12:53Speaker 2: has to go get him. Huang arrived back home in
- 12:55Speaker 2: the middle of August, so about two weeks after he
- 12:57Speaker 2: had gone missing. And as soon as he got there,
- 13:00Speaker 2: his fiance and his parents were so happy to see him,
- 13:03Speaker 2: and pretty soon a steady stream of friends and neighbors
- 13:06Speaker 2: and other family members began coming to Huang's house to
- 13:10Speaker 2: talk to him, to hear his story, to hear about
- 13:12Speaker 2: what happened. But Huang really didn't understand what had happened
- 13:15Speaker 2: to him, and so mostly he just didn't answer any
- 13:18Speaker 2: questions he got asked. He just kind of kept his
- 13:20Speaker 2: head down and just kept saying, you know, I don't know,
- 13:22Speaker 2: I don't know what happened. And then really when his
- 13:25Speaker 2: family pressed him and said, you know, like you gotta
- 13:27Speaker 2: tell us, you know, this is so crazy what happened,
- 13:29Speaker 2: he would say, look like, I'm gonna.
- 13:31Speaker 1: Tell you what happened, but I don't even know if
- 13:33Speaker 1: I can.
- 13:33Speaker 2: Believe the things I'm gonna tell you, And so Huang
- 13:36Speaker 2: would say, you know, all he could remember was he
- 13:38Speaker 2: went to bed in his own bed in big Au,
- 13:41Speaker 2: and then the next morning he woke up and he
- 13:44Speaker 2: was laying on the sidewalk, and when he opened his eyes,
- 13:47Speaker 2: he saw there was this big swimming pool, and then
- 13:49Speaker 2: near it was a sign that said nan Jing. And
- 13:52Speaker 2: so that was how he put together that he was
- 13:54Speaker 2: in Nanjing, and then almost immediately these two police officers
- 13:58Speaker 2: wearing all white just kind of a heared out of
- 14:00Speaker 2: nowhere and they walked.
- 14:01Speaker 1: Up to Huang.
- 14:02Speaker 2: They scooped him up, and without really saying anything to him,
- 14:05Speaker 2: they brought him to that deportation center in Shanghai, which
- 14:09Speaker 2: is a place where people who seemed confused or mentally
- 14:11Speaker 2: ill would be sent in order to help them get home.
- 14:14Speaker 1: And that was it.
- 14:15Speaker 2: That was Hwang's entire story that he just basically woke
- 14:18Speaker 2: up in nan Jing with no idea how he got there.
- 14:21Speaker 2: And so after he told his family, they all just
- 14:24Speaker 2: kind of looked at him like, really, like that's what happened?
- 14:27Speaker 2: That makes no sense. But Huang, I mean he was
- 14:29Speaker 2: completely lucid. He was explaining it really specifically and really simply.
- 14:34Speaker 2: I mean he looked and sounded exactly like he normally did,
- 14:37Speaker 2: and he seemed very honest as he was telling the story.
- 14:40Speaker 2: Over the next few weeks, Huang kind of reintegrated back
- 14:43Speaker 2: into his life, but things just were not the same.
- 14:46Speaker 1: People were now scared of him.
- 14:48Speaker 2: I mean kids literally ran away from him when they
- 14:50Speaker 2: saw him because rumors were going around town that he
- 14:53Speaker 2: himself his body was haunted or something, and so kids
- 14:57Speaker 2: were scared of him, and other villagers would openly go
- 15:00Speaker 2: about him right in front of him. I mean, even
- 15:03Speaker 2: his beloved fiance admitted to feeling really uncomfortable around him now.
- 15:07Speaker 2: And while all of this was obviously very upsetting for Huang,
- 15:11Speaker 2: he did also understand why people were acting this way.
- 15:14Speaker 2: I mean, this is a very anomalous thing that's happened
- 15:17Speaker 2: to him, and he did not have a good explanation
- 15:20Speaker 2: for this totally insane event that he was a part of,
- 15:23Speaker 2: and so he just kind of got it. And in fact,
- 15:26Speaker 2: Huang himself was kind of terrified of himself. I mean
- 15:29Speaker 2: at night, when he would go to bed, he would
- 15:32Speaker 2: be terrified that the second he closed his eyes, he
- 15:34Speaker 2: was going to be transported hundreds or thousands of miles
- 15:37Speaker 2: away to some totally unknown place and maybe this time
- 15:41Speaker 2: he wouldn't even be able to get back again. But
- 15:43Speaker 2: as the days war on, Huang continued to wake up
- 15:46Speaker 2: in his own bed in Bagau, which over time kind
- 15:50Speaker 2: of made him feel more secure that whatever happened to
- 15:52Speaker 2: him was a one time thing and it's not going
- 15:54Speaker 2: to happen again. However, Huang would be wrong. On September eighth,
- 15:58Speaker 2: nineteen seventy seven, so three weeks after Huang had returned
- 16:02Speaker 2: back home, he went to sleep in his bed in
- 16:04Speaker 2: the village of Baygao, but when he woke up the.
- 16:07Speaker 1: Next morning, he was not there.
- 16:09Speaker 2: The first thing Huang noticed when he woke up that
- 16:11Speaker 2: morning were the sounds around him were totally different.
- 16:14Speaker 1: They were not right.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Normally, when he was asleep in his home, he would
- 16:18Speaker 2: hear the sound of his mother and father snoring right
- 16:21Speaker 2: by him, and he might hear some insects or birds
- 16:23Speaker 2: out his window, and those sounds were gone. Instead, he
- 16:26Speaker 2: heard what sounded like footsteps, but not ordinary footsteps. There
- 16:30Speaker 2: were footsteps of somebody walking on cement who was wearing
- 16:34Speaker 2: high heels, like a clicking sound.
- 16:35Speaker 1: And then Huang also became.
- 16:37Speaker 2: Aware of the fact that his face was clearly pressed
- 16:40Speaker 2: up against cement he was laying on the ground. But
- 16:43Speaker 2: Huang couldn't open his eyes. As hard as he tried,
- 16:45Speaker 2: he couldn't do it. He couldn't move his body, and
- 16:47Speaker 2: so he was just laying there on cement with his
- 16:49Speaker 2: eyes closed, listening to the sound of these footsteps, these
- 16:52Speaker 2: high heels getting closer and closer and closer, and as they.
- 16:56Speaker 1: Did, his anxiety was growing and growing. He had no
- 16:58Speaker 1: idea who this person was.
- 17:00Speaker 2: And then these footsteps they got right up to him
- 17:02Speaker 2: and then passed by him, and Huang felt the breeze
- 17:06Speaker 2: as this person walked right past him. And then after
- 17:08Speaker 2: this person in high heels had kind of walked off
- 17:11Speaker 2: in the other direction, Huang finally was able to wrench
- 17:14Speaker 2: open his eyes and he sat up, and he looked
- 17:16Speaker 2: around and won he couldn't find anybody. It was totally
- 17:20Speaker 2: abandoned all around him, so whoever had those high heels
- 17:23Speaker 2: on had somehow vanished in plain sight. And then also
- 17:27Speaker 2: Ashuang continued to look around him, it looked like he
- 17:30Speaker 2: was in the middle of this city. But again, there's
- 17:33Speaker 2: nobody out there. It's like this abandoned city street.
- 17:37Speaker 1: All he had in.
- 17:37Speaker 2: Front of him was this clock up on a building
- 17:40Speaker 2: that said one am. And so pretty soon Huang was
- 17:42Speaker 2: just kind of walking in circles, screaming out for help.
- 17:46Speaker 2: And right when he was about to just start sprinting
- 17:48Speaker 2: in any one direction and hope that help would be
- 17:51Speaker 2: somewhere out there, Huang felt a tap on his shoulder,
- 17:54Speaker 2: and then the person tapping him from behind him said,
- 17:57Speaker 2: are you Huang yan Cho? Huang spun aroud and he
- 18:00Speaker 2: saw there were these two men in military uniforms standing there,
- 18:04Speaker 2: and for a second, Huang felt relieved somebody was here
- 18:07Speaker 2: to help him. But then he thought to himself, how
- 18:10Speaker 2: do they know my name?
- 18:10Speaker 1: What's going on here? And so he asked them, how
- 18:13Speaker 1: do you know my name? But the two men didn't
- 18:15Speaker 1: answer Huang.
- 18:16Speaker 2: Instead, they told him that he was at a Shanghai
- 18:18Speaker 2: railway station seven hundred miles from Bagau, and that they,
- 18:23Speaker 2: these two soldiers, were here to take Huang to a
- 18:26Speaker 2: nearby army base. At this point, Huang was so scared
- 18:30Speaker 2: he just didn't know what to do, so he just
- 18:32Speaker 2: wound up going with these two soldiers who put him
- 18:34Speaker 2: in the back of a jeep and then they hopped
- 18:36Speaker 2: in and began driving, and they drove him out of
- 18:39Speaker 2: this weird, abandoned city where he had woken up, And
- 18:42Speaker 2: after driving for some time, they arrived at this huge
- 18:46Speaker 2: army base that had all these rows of fencing around
- 18:48Speaker 2: it with razor wire on top, and all these sentries
- 18:51Speaker 2: that guarded all the doors, and these two soldiers brought
- 18:54Speaker 2: him through several of these checkpoints, and then when they
- 18:57Speaker 2: reached the very last one, they stopped the car they
- 18:59Speaker 2: got out. Huang got out too, and the two soldiers
- 19:02Speaker 2: that were with him grabbed Huang's shoulders and they basically
- 19:05Speaker 2: led him through the last checkpoint, which was manned by
- 19:09Speaker 2: armed guards, and Ashuang was led through this gate. The
- 19:12Speaker 2: armed guards seemed to not even notice these soldiers or Huang.
- 19:16Speaker 2: It was like they were invisible to the armed guards.
- 19:18Speaker 2: But either way, they got through the final checkpoint, and
- 19:22Speaker 2: then the two soldiers that were carrying Huang led him
- 19:25Speaker 2: to this kind of non descript big building and they
- 19:27Speaker 2: opened up a door and they began walking down this
- 19:30Speaker 2: long hallway that kind of zigged and zagged. It was
- 19:33Speaker 2: up a maze of different directions you could go, and
- 19:35Speaker 2: then finally they brought Huang right to this big door
- 19:38Speaker 2: that said division headquarters over it. And then before Huang
- 19:41Speaker 2: could say anything, one of the two soldiers that was
- 19:43Speaker 2: with him knocked on the door, and then before anybody
- 19:46Speaker 2: could respond, that same soldier reached down, opened it up,
- 19:50Speaker 2: swung the door in, and then they pushed Huang inside
- 19:53Speaker 2: and they stepped in after him and shut the door
- 19:55Speaker 2: behind them. In front of Huang was this big desk,
- 19:58Speaker 2: and sitting behind this desk was a very senior looking
- 20:01Speaker 2: military official wearing a uniform. And this official when they
- 20:05Speaker 2: looked up and Sawhuang standing there, they got up to
- 20:07Speaker 2: their feet and put their hands on their gun and said.
- 20:09Speaker 1: What are you doing here?
- 20:10Speaker 2: How'd you get in here? And Wang, sensing there was
- 20:13Speaker 2: something wrong, threw his hands up to show he was
- 20:15Speaker 2: not a threat and pointed behind him and said, they
- 20:18Speaker 2: brought me here. And the military official, who still had
- 20:20Speaker 2: his hand on his gun, looked behind Huang and said,
- 20:24Speaker 2: who brought you here? And Huang he turned around and
- 20:26Speaker 2: he saw the two soldiers who had picked him up
- 20:29Speaker 2: and driven him here and led him to this room.
- 20:31Speaker 2: They were gone, which was impossible Becausehuang would have heard
- 20:35Speaker 2: them leave. He didn't hear anything. The door never opened,
- 20:38Speaker 2: They just somehow were gone. A second later, the senior
- 20:41Speaker 2: military official had pulled out his radio and he was
- 20:44Speaker 2: screaming commands. And then another second later, armed soldiers came
- 20:47Speaker 2: running into the room. They Grabbedhuang, who still had his
- 20:50Speaker 2: hands up. They came in there, Arrestedhuang, and they began
- 20:53Speaker 2: asking him all these questions about how he got in here,
- 20:56Speaker 2: How did you get through the guards, did you climb
- 20:58Speaker 2: the fence, did you cut the fence, how did you
- 21:00Speaker 2: get in here. It's not possible that you are here
- 21:03Speaker 2: right now. But Huang did not have any answers. All
- 21:06Speaker 2: he could say was the two soldiers they brought me here.
- 21:10Speaker 2: A couple of days later, Huang would be busted back
- 21:12Speaker 2: to Bagao, and again his friends and family and everybody
- 21:16Speaker 2: in town had all these.
- 21:17Speaker 1: Questions about what happened.
- 21:19Speaker 2: But again Huang just had no answers. And then just
- 21:22Speaker 2: eleven days after coming back home the second time, Huang
- 21:26Speaker 2: would disappear again, and this time he would tell people
- 21:29Speaker 2: he encountered two men who told him they were the
- 21:32Speaker 2: same two men from the other two times he had
- 21:35Speaker 2: gone missing. You had the first instance where he woke
- 21:38Speaker 2: up and two police officers in white picked him up
- 21:40Speaker 2: off the ground and brought him to the deportation center.
- 21:43Speaker 2: And then the second time was the military base where
- 21:46Speaker 2: you had those two soldiers who brought him through the
- 21:48Speaker 2: gates and brought him to division headquarters. Basically, these two
- 21:52Speaker 2: men he encountered on the third trip were saying they
- 21:55Speaker 2: were the same men across all three instances, and on
- 21:58Speaker 2: this third instance that he went missing, Huang said, these
- 22:01Speaker 2: two men put him on their backs and they flew
- 22:05Speaker 2: him to nine different cities around China for reasons unknown,
- 22:09Speaker 2: and then they flew him back to Bagao and just dropped.
- 22:12Speaker 1: Him off right outside his house near a tree, and
- 22:14Speaker 1: that was it.
- 22:15Speaker 2: Now, of course, this final disappearance sounds the most absurd
- 22:18Speaker 2: because what he was flying on the backs of people
- 22:21Speaker 2: to all these different cities, that doesn't make any sense.
- 22:23Speaker 1: But when Huang was kind.
- 22:25Speaker 2: Of aggressively questioned about this third story because it sounded
- 22:28Speaker 2: the most made up as compared to the other two,
- 22:31Speaker 2: it would turn out Huang had all this kind of
- 22:34Speaker 2: insider information about each of the nine cities that he
- 22:38Speaker 2: supposedly was flown to by these two men.
- 22:40Speaker 1: He knew the weather in.
- 22:41Speaker 2: Each of those cities on the night that he was gone,
- 22:44Speaker 2: he knew what shows were playing on the night he
- 22:46Speaker 2: was gone, and he also just had really specific descriptions
- 22:50Speaker 2: of where he was in each of these cities when
- 22:53Speaker 2: they got there.
- 22:54Speaker 1: That all checked out.
- 22:55Speaker 2: Now, you've got to remember that getting that information correct
- 22:58Speaker 2: would have been really hard for Huang at the time.
- 23:01Speaker 2: He did not have internet access, he didn't have a phone,
- 23:04Speaker 2: he didn't have a car. I mean, he lives in
- 23:06Speaker 2: an isolated, small village in rural China. So the idea
- 23:10Speaker 2: that literally the morning after all this happens, he's flown
- 23:13Speaker 2: to these different cities, that he would have all this
- 23:16Speaker 2: information perfectly correct, that's hard to do, that would be
- 23:19Speaker 2: hard to lie about. As of today, no one has
- 23:22Speaker 2: ever been able to debunk Huang's stories. Basically, there's enough
- 23:26Speaker 2: legitimacy and verifiable information in his stories that you really
- 23:31Speaker 2: can't discount them. They really could have happened. Add in
- 23:34Speaker 2: the fact that Huang actually took a light detector test
- 23:37Speaker 2: and passed it, and suddenly you're looking at a story that,
- 23:41Speaker 2: as crazy.
- 23:41Speaker 1: As it sounds, really could have happened.
- 23:44Speaker 2: And so huang story today is considered far and away
- 23:47Speaker 2: the most famous UFO story in China's history, because the
- 23:51Speaker 2: leading theory here is that Huang must have been abducted
- 23:54Speaker 2: by aliens and that's how he was being moved around
- 23:57Speaker 2: to all these places, and maybe those two men that
- 24:00Speaker 2: kept showing up in each of these events were the
- 24:03Speaker 2: extraterrestrials that had scooped him up.
- 24:05Speaker 1: Nobody knows, but that is the theory.
- 24:08Speaker 2: As Forhuang, he wishes none of this had ever happened,
- 24:11Speaker 2: because his disappearances and whatever happened to him basically wrecked
- 24:15Speaker 2: his life. His fiance broke up with him because she
- 24:18Speaker 2: was so uncomfortable around him, and there was a lot
- 24:20Speaker 2: of stigma around Huang, especially in the village, where everybody
- 24:23Speaker 2: thought he was a liar.
- 24:24Speaker 1: And then on top of that, all these.
- 24:26Speaker 2: News and film and TV crews came to the village
- 24:29Speaker 2: because they wanted to shoot shows and documentaries about Huang,
- 24:32Speaker 2: and Hoang did not want anything to do with them.
- 24:34Speaker 1: But again, like all these people.
- 24:36Speaker 2: Are coming to the village for Huang and it's making
- 24:38Speaker 2: the rest of the villagers upset. And then also there
- 24:40Speaker 2: was a really lengthy investigation by the police and by
- 24:44Speaker 2: the military to try to figure out how in the
- 24:46Speaker 2: world Huang got into that army base. I mean, there
- 24:49Speaker 2: were layers and layers of security that he somehow got through,
- 24:53Speaker 2: and all those armed guards that were watching the gates
- 24:56Speaker 2: said they never saw Huang walk through, even though Hoong
- 24:58Speaker 2: said he literally just walked through the gate with the
- 25:01Speaker 2: two soldiers that were carrying him through.
- 25:03Speaker 1: And so today. Huang actually still.
- 25:05Speaker 2: Lives in Bagao and he had a son and a
- 25:08Speaker 2: daughter and he has grandkids. But he refuses to talk
- 25:11Speaker 2: about what happened to him because again, it wrecked his life.
- 25:19Speaker 1: So that's going to do it.
