1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,000 As I see it, there are several important things which remain, most, have foremote in my mind, 2 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:18,000 and the reason I'm going to speak of, not to give you detail or word for word of what the report consisted of. 3 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:32,000 And the first thing that comes to mind in this subject is, as we were talking with Peter and Charles and then to go about Dr. Ken Houston, 4 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:43,000 who in fact saw something at the time of the Sputnik, a place called Warnmere where he was stationed in New Guinea in 1959. 5 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:52,000 The Russian satellite should have been going in one direction and he saw it going in the opposite direction. 6 00:00:52,000 --> 00:01:02,000 And he theorized, rightly so I guess, that it's been a following day that it must have been a flying saucer. 7 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:10,000 And this is the first occasion which I'd ever heard anybody refer to flying saucers as such. 8 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:18,000 And there was a gathering about the size of this tonight, all sitting around the table and then the Sputnik got off the flying saucers 9 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:24,000 and of course nobody but Dr. Ken Houston really believed they existed. 10 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:32,000 Sometime after this, and I say sometime, it was a matter of months, I was coming back from a three week walkabout. 11 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:41,000 A walkabout is a patrol and it was my job at that particular time in 1959 to be an inspector of schools. 12 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:47,000 There were 12 schools in the very large district, some of them up in the old San Diego Ranges, 13 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:53,000 and it was my job to go around and check on them and as an inspector might do. 14 00:01:53,000 --> 00:02:00,000 And then on my way back, the normal thing was to catch a whale boat, have a whale boat waiting for me at a particular spot 15 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,000 and to go back along the coast. 16 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:11,000 And as on this particular night as I was drawing into my home station, somewhere between 7 and 8, I guess, 17 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:19,000 I looked across towards the mountains, the mountain range, the mountain which I knew very well. 18 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,000 And there I saw what I thought was a tilly lamp. 19 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:35,000 A tilly lamp is a precious paraffin lamp and at a distance it sparkles, rather like the magnesium children's plateings, 20 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:41,000 what they call sparkles, rather like this in the thick, except that it's draught. 21 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:47,000 And I took it to be a tilly lamp and it was only afterwards that I thought may be it was not. 22 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:55,000 In fact, I thought that it could not have been, because on this particular mountain, which is something over 2,000 feet high, 23 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:59,000 it is rather desolate and certainly there are no gardens there. 24 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:05,000 Certainly nobody in his right mind would be up there without a particular reason, 25 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:11,000 such as being a member of a geographical society or something like this, in this description, 26 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:16,000 and certainly nobody would be up there at night with a tilly lamp. 27 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:22,000 Now these thoughts pass through my mind as I gaze up to this light from the sea, 28 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:28,000 but still it was far from the subject of flying saucers, 29 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:34,000 and so I accepted that there was just somebody who was stupid enough to please it. 30 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:42,000 When I arrived home, however, again I was rather remote from the subject, because I was not well informed, 31 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,000 neither was I really interested in the subject of the US age. 32 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:55,000 But when I arrived home, one of my head teachers, a native Papua teacher, 33 00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:03,000 by the name of Stephen Moy, Gil, which might sound about suspicious, 34 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:08,000 he came to me and said, 35 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:14,000 last Sunday night I saw a rather strange thing, you know all that there is to know about strange things, 36 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,000 you tell me what it is. 37 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,000 And then he described, and I've written this down, 38 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,000 and it's a letter that I wrote to a friend of mine, David Dewey, 39 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,000 who was the head and principal of the Sunday's Teachers College, 40 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000 he described an object over the sea, 41 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:35,000 and I asked him all kinds of questions about it, its size, its shape, 42 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,000 was it like a six-cent, was it like a plate, 43 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,000 and each time he came back he said, no, it was like a saucer, 44 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,000 this is the nearest thing that I can relate it to. 45 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:54,000 And I'm assuming that at least a few people here who have read that letter, 46 00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:00,000 if you haven't, Mr. Aaron Heelich, that you have a copy of it to see. 47 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,000 And it was from then that I became rather curious, 48 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,000 and remember how I signed it today to David Dewey, 49 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:13,000 who later on, by the way, was able to sign another statement that he and his wife 50 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,000 had seen with flying saucer, but before this of course he was interested, 51 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,000 academic grade, but not terribly convinced. 52 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:25,000 So, why did I sign myself as a doubting bill? 53 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:30,000 Now you see with this signature, this is going back in retrospect, 54 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:40,000 in this signature there was some however forming in my mind the possibility of these things. 55 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:48,000 The integrity in my mind of Stephen Lloyd could never be doubted. 56 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:55,000 I had extreme trust and faith in him as a character and as an honest person. 57 00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:03,000 And Frederick and I were mentioning just a short time ago about, in fact, 58 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:08,000 the significance and importance of having doubts, 59 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:14,000 the scientists having doubts and how this can lead then to research and investigation. 60 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,000 So I guess I must have been at this kind of stage. 61 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,000 And then, of course, before I think about it, 62 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:27,000 are then the actual findings that might occur. 63 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:33,000 Now, not talking about actual incident law or why it was, how it was recorded, 64 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:38,000 but the few things that stand most in, for most of my mind. 65 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,000 This is going back now 11 and a half years. 66 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,000 And there are some things which are tremendously vivid. 67 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,000 I'll mention them. 68 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:54,000 The rights that I mentioned before, which seem like too many, 69 00:06:54,000 --> 00:07:01,000 this remains most vivid, a vivid pictorial impression in my mind. 70 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:13,000 An outline of the saucer, a separated portion or a dark portion between it 71 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,000 and this sparkling light. 72 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:21,000 So there's a light, outline, darkness, and the object itself. 73 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,000 That is most vivid. 74 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:30,000 Another most vivid thing is the shaft of blue electric lights 75 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:37,000 emanating from the top of the craft up towards the heavens. 76 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:46,000 An electric blue light, rather, I think I describe as an insult with light. 77 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:51,000 Another very vivid impression remains there, without any doubts at all, 78 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,000 but in my own mind in any case that I saw it. 79 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,000 And that is the waving men. 80 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,000 I saw Amy Michelle on Saturday. 81 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,000 He said, you know, there's a character also who saw somebody wave, 82 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,000 and I said, well, that's me. 83 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,000 He said, oh, that's you. 84 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,000 And so he's going to become even more interested. 85 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:18,000 But this, in fact, is one thing which I just can't count 86 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,000 in quite a part of my mind. 87 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:29,000 That's something that looked human waves in this apparent response 88 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,000 to the way his weight would have been gained. 89 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:38,000 Now, outside of the report itself, there were one or two incidents 90 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:44,000 which I reported because I felt that this was going to be a reasonable report 91 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,000 and it was going to be entered. 92 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,000 Although I didn't attach any theories about whether they were connected 93 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,000 to the effect of the sighting or not. 94 00:08:52,000 --> 00:09:00,000 One was this ear splitting sound noise, like a gum report, I guess, 95 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:07,000 or something which had been out of my experience before. 96 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:13,000 That evening, it was overcast, and I was inside, 97 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,000 and there was this great noise. 98 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,000 I looked out the window and could see nothing. 99 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,000 Some people would ask me whether I smelled anything. 100 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,000 I don't recall smelling anything either. 101 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,000 But that's the noise which will always remain with me. 102 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:34,000 The other one was also a noise, and it was getting after sighting, 103 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:39,000 and that was the noise of something had been dropped from the great height, 104 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:44,000 some metallic conscience, I guess, being dropped from the great height 105 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:49,000 onto the galvanized iron roof of one of the, 106 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:53,000 where in fact there was a petition of the building I was in. 107 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:57,000 So convinced I was that something had been dropped 108 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,000 that I got somebody to climb up the next morning to examine the roof, 109 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,000 and nobody could find any article, nobody could find any dent. 110 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:10,000 What that was, whether it was connected with the events of the night, I have no idea. 111 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:19,000 But I wrote those down, and as a supplement or agenda, rather than a thousand reported silver. 112 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,000 But why did I report this thing? 113 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:26,000 Why didn't I just stand and look, and tell a story afterwards? 114 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:35,000 Well this I suppose was in fact that I had been doing some, a bit of journalistic work, 115 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:41,000 and also that I had been doing some other study, 116 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:48,000 and I was in the habit of carrying paper and pencil for this very thing. 117 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:53,000 And I suppose when I first saw this object, 118 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:59,000 and it distinguished it from Venus, because it was in virtually the same direction, 119 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:05,000 that I thought well now, this is what I've been waiting for, I guess I thought this. 120 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,000 This is what I've been waiting for. 121 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,000 This is the sort of thing that nobody would believe unless I write it down. 122 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:16,000 In fact I wouldn't believe it unless I write it down either, because you know how it is, 123 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,000 especially in the tropics, I didn't have any whiskey on board, 124 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,000 but you never know that people might or might not believe that. 125 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:31,000 And I wrote this down minute by minute, whenever anything happened I put it down, 126 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,000 and it was just as simple as that. 127 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:39,000 I had a rather academic approach to it, I was not excited, 128 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:46,000 not that I remember, certainly I had a calm enough mind to be able to record the events 129 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:51,000 without any trouble. 130 00:11:51,000 --> 00:12:01,000 I wonder too, is the reason for the same, well rather the same behavior in the part of the natives, 131 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:10,000 because I treated it as a reasonable sort of thing rather than becoming agitated. 132 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:17,000 And I believe that had I become terribly excited, they would have become terribly excited too, 133 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,000 had I been in fear they would have been. 134 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:25,000 I feel that they were watching me fully, because it was out of their experience, 135 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,000 I asked them afterwards had they ever seen anything like this before, 136 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,000 Stephen Moyer of course had a different kind of thing, 137 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:42,000 but he was the only one really, he was possibly more interested in it than I would have imagined. 138 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:47,000 Well, this is a brief outline of the sort of the reminiscing, 139 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:57,000 and I feel that you know as much about these sightings as I do myself by now, 140 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:03,000 that have been passed from person to person, I was in Birmingham a week ago, 141 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:07,000 I picked up a book on UFOs, and I was surprised to find there, 142 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:12,000 I can't tell you what the title was now, but I think it was 7 for about 5 or 6. 143 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:18,000 And what I saw, and how I saw it and the reason for my seeing it, 144 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:24,000 I feel ashamed to tell you, but there it was. 145 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,000 This is not the first occasion, of course I've seen things like this, 146 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:33,000 but apart from that, that sort of thing, you know the kind of, 147 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,000 you know what I feel, is that right? 148 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,000 Everybody's familiar with what I wrote in those days, 149 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,000 and well, if they're not, they soon will be. 150 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:52,000 I'm very happy to make clear any other little points perhaps that people might be interested in. 151 00:13:52,000 --> 00:14:00,000 It wouldn't make you very much in deep. 152 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,000 Who they like you are. 153 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,000 I have a question, Mr. Chairman, 154 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,000 when you saw this thing and looked at it, 155 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:12,000 and I appreciate it, this could only be a subjective impression of your answer at all, 156 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:17,000 did you have an impression of being observed? 157 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,000 No, I didn't. 158 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,000 We're going to be settled down. 159 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,000 Everybody has. 160 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,000 No, you didn't. 161 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,000 Thank you very much. 162 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,000 Well, I tell you why. 163 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,000 Because you've seen the people on the crowd, 164 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:34,000 let's assume they're people, and we've got to start somewhere, 165 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,000 they were more interested in what they were doing on the crowd than in us. 166 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,000 This would be an impression we got. 167 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,000 I can't stop the next question by saying, 168 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,000 I've had that misunderstanding for so long, 169 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,000 I've been sitting there for so long, 170 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,000 but I can't understand what you were saying about it. 171 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,000 I was just a little worried about something waving to you. 172 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,000 I wasn't just a little worried, sir. 173 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,000 Yes, but there was a measure of definition of observation. 174 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,000 Yes. 175 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:04,000 I think in my report you will see that they waved, 176 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:08,000 and then they carried on with whatever the business was. 177 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,000 I'm very happy. 178 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,000 Very funny. 179 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,000 We thought four. 180 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,000 Four ways. 181 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,000 Not one. 182 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,000 There were four things as though there were four things. 183 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,000 It was all waving in front of us. 184 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,000 That's one. 185 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,000 They didn't wave. 186 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,000 Not very altogether, no. 187 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,000 How many people have observed? 188 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,000 37. 189 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,000 What is it? 35 or 37? 190 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,000 30. 191 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,000 How many actual sightings? 192 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:46,000 Two nights, which we could really be certain of. 193 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,000 But more witnesses to person. 194 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,000 Yes, that's right. 195 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,000 What is your report, sir? 196 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:58,000 Well, David Durie, the man I mentioned at the Teachers College, 197 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,000 was my first correspondent. 198 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,000 I asked him actually, Norman Cutwell, 199 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,000 Ken and Norman Cutwell, 200 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,000 was on the toll at that particular time. 201 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,000 And I mentioned to David Durie, 202 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,000 asking him whether he thought it would be worth, 203 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,000 or whether Norman Cutwell would be interested, 204 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:19,000 because Norman Cutwell has been an unofficial conifer 205 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,000 of sightings that have been going on in New Zealand, 206 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,000 you're getting to the moment. 207 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,000 He had been keeping records of people 208 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:32,000 who had been coming in from all kinds of places, 209 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,000 up in the hills, 210 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,000 and along the coast and on boats, 211 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:42,000 such recordings as moons exploding, 212 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,000 this kind of thing. 213 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,000 I just don't remember how many there were, 214 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,000 but a fairly number of them. 215 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,000 And so I mentioned to David, 216 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,000 did he think Norman would be interested? 217 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,000 I sent a copy over to Norman. 218 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,000 Norman then sent it on to Brisbane, 219 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:04,000 and the Brisbane people engaged in the babies. 220 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,000 That's how it came out. 221 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:10,000 Could I ask, we've read a lot in recent years 222 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:15,000 about some popular accounts of the cargo cult 223 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,000 among the people who get in it. 224 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,000 Now, I was curious to know 225 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:25,000 whether any of your native people there were mission, 226 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,000 whether any of them were inclined to interpret it, 227 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,000 in terms of that? 228 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,000 Not where I was. 229 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,000 I was rather more sophisticated. 230 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,000 Not that we, I suppose, 231 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,000 that's the wrong way to use, 232 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,000 because quite a number of sophisticated people 233 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,000 who still believe in the cargo cult, 234 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,000 but it's not that particular area. 235 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,000 It's up to mention questions. 236 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,000 Two of those ones have just been asked. 237 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,000 You did say earlier that there was one man 238 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,000 in whom you had complete confidence, 239 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,000 who had to breathe his experience, 240 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,000 because he was a transferan, 241 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,000 and one of whom you had complete trust, 242 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,000 who was integrity of trust. 243 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,000 Are you aware that he was a transferan? 244 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,000 And did he have visions, 245 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,000 or did he have a means of communication 246 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,000 with the government, or had he ever 247 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,000 interested in your role in the psyche? 248 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,000 Not in the formal sense. 249 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,000 Not in the formal sense. 250 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,000 You're not aware that he was a transferan? 251 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,000 No. This was the only, to my knowledge, 252 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,000 but he was one of the... 253 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,000 One of what made you feel that he was 254 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,000 convicted reliable in the spirit? 255 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,000 No. Completely trustworthy. 256 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,000 And as a observer? 257 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:39,000 No. As a person, 258 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,000 a person who is statements, 259 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:46,000 I have no reason to doubt. 260 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,000 He has neither before nor since, 261 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,000 as he has communicated with me, 262 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,000 that he's seen or heard anything 263 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,000 that's not a person. 264 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,000 Were you able to ever make rough decisions? 265 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,000 No. I was away from you after the object 266 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:05,000 when you decided to die. 267 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,000 Was it the first or the second time? 268 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,000 No. At the time, 269 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,000 beside members, there was no reason to wave, 270 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,000 other than just to wave, 271 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:15,000 because this thing was there, 272 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,000 and there seemed to be people up. 273 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,000 And you wanted to have that as miles 274 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,000 or hundreds of yards. 275 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,000 Can you get it as near as that? 276 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,000 No. A hundred feet. 277 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,000 Yes. 278 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,000 It was dark. 279 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,000 It was dark. 280 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,000 It was dark. 281 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,000 And then, of course, 282 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,000 it went into darkness. 283 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,000 And was it self-illuminant? 284 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,000 Yes. 285 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,000 So it really was sawed by its own light, almost. 286 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,000 That's right. 287 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,000 Because after, 288 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,000 after, say, 630, 289 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,000 it was... 290 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,000 there was no light apart from the stars. 291 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,000 I don't remember if it stopped at over an hour or more. 292 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,000 It was just a little distant. 293 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,000 Yes. Yes. 294 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,000 Quite a long time. 295 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,000 Sure. 296 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,000 I hope you could elaborate on those questions of distance 297 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,000 and personality. 298 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,000 Ah, calculate. 299 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,000 Yes. 300 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,000 Any mathematical distance. 301 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,000 No, I keep quiet. 302 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,000 Because this is my problem. 303 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:16,000 I was aware that 304 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:17,000 the importance of... 305 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:21,000 One of the important things for me is to try to estimate the size of the craft. 306 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,000 So I have to assume one or two things. 307 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:32,000 Most importantly, I have to assume that the figures were of, say, average size. 308 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:41,000 Now, the average size of a parkour would be about 5, 4, 7, 5, 8, as a normal man. 309 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,000 And, um... 310 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:50,000 So the next day, I got one of my average size school pupils 311 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:58,000 and marched him across the playing field until he became the size of the things on the craft. 312 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,000 And I just measured my hand. 313 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,000 Now, whether this is the right way to go about it or not, 314 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,000 whether elevations make any difference or not, I wouldn't know. 315 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,000 But that doesn't matter. 316 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,000 This is what I have to do. 317 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:18,000 And once we got him there, then my hand span, which was roughly about 5 inches, 318 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,000 I had to correct that at one stage, I said 8 inches. 319 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:30,000 And then I realized that, in fact, when I was not conscious about having my hand up for a span, 320 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,000 that in fact it was a lot less. 321 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,000 And so I had to then read just from 8 to 5 inches. 322 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:42,000 And so then we got out across and I measured across one of the school buildings 323 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:47,000 and told them then to get there a little foot rule or yard rule or something 324 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,000 and measure the distance. 325 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,000 And we got around what was it? 326 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,000 30 feet, 30 feet feet. 327 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,000 Something like that. 328 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,000 This is the diameter of the craft. 329 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,000 This was no... 330 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,000 I wouldn't say diameter, it was the length. 331 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,000 The length. 332 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,000 The length as we saw it. 333 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,000 What shape was it? 334 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,000 What shape was it? 335 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:08,000 We assumed it was a disc. 336 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,000 It was a round thing. 337 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,000 It was a very depth. 338 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,000 A cylindrical disc. 339 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,000 A cylindrical disc. 340 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:17,000 Yes, cylindrical. 341 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,000 Circular. 342 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,000 Circular. 343 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,000 Yes, it had depth. 344 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:21,000 Yes. 345 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,000 And width. 346 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,000 It didn't have to be super structured. 347 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,000 I thought it might be a little bit of a smell. 348 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,000 It didn't determine the shape. 349 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,000 In what I described in my report as a super structure, 350 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:38,000 it would seem to be the rounder like the top of the both deck. 351 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,000 What do I call it? 352 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,000 Wait, the top of the deck? 353 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,000 The top of the deck. 354 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,000 Super structure. 355 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,000 That was the cylindrical disc. 356 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,000 The cylindrical disc. 357 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,000 Sorry. 358 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,000 It was cylindrical this thing. 359 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,000 Do you have anything coming up about that? 360 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:54,000 No. 361 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,000 Yes, there was a deck structure. 362 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:58,000 There were two parts on it. 363 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,000 What I call the body of the craft. 364 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:05,000 And then there was what I interpreted as a super structure on top of that. 365 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,000 What shape was that? 366 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:10,000 It reminded us, because we were right on the case. 367 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:17,000 And it reminded us of the super structure on the deck of a craft. 368 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,000 Well, who was on that? 369 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:20,000 Yes, they were. 370 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,000 Not on top of it. 371 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:27,000 But as far as I was behind it, in fact, we could see no legs. 372 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:31,000 We assumed that there was some way upwards, if what you say. 373 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,000 Well, they were there. 374 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,000 Yes, and it seemed as though a cover-up. 375 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,000 We couldn't identify and cover-up it. 376 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,000 Do you have any consideration for this? 377 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,000 I do not. 378 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,000 Any consideration for this deck? 379 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,000 We didn't have any... 380 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,000 I don't think we even had a camera, but we certainly had no film. 381 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,000 We had no binoculars. 382 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,000 Nothing like it. 383 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,000 I mean, we were expecting it to stay. 384 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,000 And the distance again? 385 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:06,000 At one stage, I thought, 300, 400 feet, something like that, at the nearest point. 386 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,000 At the furthest? 387 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:08,000 The furthest. 388 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,000 You mean when it was taken away? 389 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:20,000 The cloud cover I estimated on the 5th of Mountain was about 2,000 feet, and it was under the cloud cover. 390 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:25,000 That's 2,000 feet between the quarter and 3 miles away from here? 391 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,000 I guess so. 392 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:31,000 You see, how many does he want the nearest point? 393 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,000 What I assumed was the size of the... 394 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,000 The nearest, not the third. 395 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,000 The observations are based on the nearest and not the third. 396 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,000 And my observations are to mention the craft, yes. 397 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,000 And all these figures, that this is the nearest. 398 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,000 300 feet away from the top, you say? 399 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,000 Not probably about 2 miles away. 400 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,000 Couldn't see that. 401 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,000 No, I'm talking between... 402 00:24:56,000 --> 00:25:01,000 Let's say between 300 feet and 2,000 feet. 403 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,000 No, no, no, let's not... 404 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,000 No, let's not. 405 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,000 Let's not. 406 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,000 That's an optimum. 407 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,000 6,000 feet from here. 408 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:22,000 I remember the other surprise I had was here. 409 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:29,000 I tend to expect to see the surprise before we begin to visualize what we're seeing. 410 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,000 I look at you, I see what you're seeing. 411 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,000 Yes. 412 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:37,000 But you, if you came out of the sea and the list, you know, I was not expecting you. 413 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,000 And it made me find it was fine before I... 414 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:45,000 Yeah, yeah, let's say it was the other way around. 415 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:51,000 He was very impressed with the visibility of the people when they were at the coast. 416 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:56,000 And then as they received it, continued to see the fish that she had just come. 417 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,000 So they didn't, they should not see the fish. 418 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,000 As it was seen, they could see it through the external eye. 419 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:09,000 That's right. The truth is that, regarding from pre-pression, I can't give dates or times, 420 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:14,000 but there was a stage when the clouds cover, I estimated about 2,000 feet, 421 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:19,000 judging on the height of the other mountain, where it goes to about a couple of miles away. 422 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,000 When it was under that, and there was a glow-reflective promise, 423 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:29,000 emanating from it or seemed to be, on to be, on the surface of the clouds. 424 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:33,000 So therefore, it must have been around another 2,000 feet. 425 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:39,000 And then at the stage when it came closer, and in my report, I had mastered it, 426 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:44,000 we thought it was going to land, in fact, we began waving, hoping that it would. 427 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:50,000 The situation of being, well, the remote button coming nearer, 428 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:56,000 I thought when I began to approach it now, the situation was that you would have seen it nearer 429 00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:01,000 and the water was receiving. We did that, we watched it come and go. 430 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:05,000 The reflection on the surface of the cloud, which you just about to do, 431 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:11,000 was this orange or yellow or rosy-eight or red, or how would you describe the colour? 432 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,000 In your head, perhaps. 433 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:18,000 What is it of an even colour, or did it just, I think so. 434 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,000 I think so. 435 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:26,000 I'm not saying that it could be, say, orange or yellow or brighter. 436 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,000 Orange or yellow for today's? 437 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,000 No, really, it's too far away from what I see in the time, though. 438 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,000 Can you describe the colour of the brighter base? 439 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:41,000 No, that's 11 years and a long time. 440 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:49,000 What I can say is that it tended to be a more yellowy light of the cloud, 441 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:57,000 in contrast to the white moving like a mountain. 442 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:03,000 Yes, I asked you a seemingly odd question as to whether you were conscious of being observed 443 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:07,000 from the base of the dish, rather silly, and you were looking at something you'd like to see. 444 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,000 That's the way I was used to know. 445 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:15,000 I meant, now, that this, did you have any sort of feeling of a physical kind? 446 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:22,000 Did you have the feeling of a social rabbit, suddenly focusing your attention and unable to divert it? 447 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:29,000 Or did you have any sort of tingling that you, as a frightened person, might feel as if it was a ghost around? 448 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:36,000 In other words, were there any subjective, physical reactions to this that you couldn't recall? 449 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,000 Only once. 450 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,000 Which was? 451 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,000 And that was the time of that noise I spoke of. 452 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:46,000 Yes, and your reaction to that was what? 453 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:58,000 Our startle, and there was certainly some kind of emotional reaction, but I can't really discover physical, I guess, a little reaction. 454 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:06,000 No, there was no reaction in the sense that there was some outside force acting towards me. 455 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,000 Did it make any noise at all? 456 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,000 No, no noise, no smell. 457 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,000 There was a lot of noise. 458 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:24,000 The only noises that were made were, in fact, when the craft was not visible to me, it was outside, or gone. 459 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:32,000 And I recorded, and mainly because they happened, not because I made any connection, a necessary connection with the scientist. 460 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,000 One sort of psychological effect, I will address it in a minute. 461 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:44,000 Did you notice any talk of a sense of, I mean, just a feeling of it? 462 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,000 No. 463 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:46,000 The reaction, in any way? 464 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,000 No. 465 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:54,000 I made some preliminary remarks to report articles about this kind of thing. 466 00:29:54,000 --> 00:30:02,000 And I suggested there, there were many suggestions, which I made, which I made virtually no comment about. 467 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,000 There are only suggestions that passed through my mind. 468 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:15,000 And one of them was this kind of thing, that perhaps me, as an authoritative figure, my reaction was then, I think, passed on to the, from the natives. 469 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,000 I was much less sophisticated than I was. 470 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:23,000 And because I had an objective approach to it, so did that. 471 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:31,000 Now, had I had any other approach, other kind of approach towards it, I believe I would have too. 472 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:48,000 I have to say, in the review, anywhere else, any photographs of the major, or not of this kind, which seems to you, 473 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:52,000 could there be any resentments to that which is found? 474 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,000 Oh yes, I have, yes. 475 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,000 I can't lie to you, but yes, I have. 476 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:06,000 Not in total, but certain aspects of other sightings are reasonably close to what I had seen. 477 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:19,000 You see, I, you've seen in the photographs, which are submitted to the review, and in every way, they're nearly always technically, they're nearly always technically fair. 478 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:25,000 I'm an optimist by nature, and pessimist by spirit, but I'm not. 479 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,000 I examine everything on its merits. 480 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:35,000 And over a period of several years, examining many photographs, you'll get quite a number of which are obviously fair. 481 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:40,000 But in the things which are not, they're nearly always technically fair. 482 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:54,000 But there are certain resemblances between photographs taken at enormously disparate points, and they have the same kind of structure. 483 00:31:54,000 --> 00:32:04,000 I don't look for a technically perfect photograph, but when you have enough bad photographs, which can be related together, 484 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:09,000 has obviously bad photographs of similar denominations. 485 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:19,000 This is progress of a very miniscule level, but it is progress, and this is as much as one can hope for. 486 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:26,000 And therefore, I'm very interested to know if you've seen any photographs which have been published in the review, 487 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:36,000 which in particular seem to be bad photographs of the sort of denominal which you saw. 488 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:42,000 I can't label any of these either, often I have none, but there are certainly, there are some photographs, 489 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:52,000 sometimes I've partially marked the peter about this in the past, that I myself would say seem to be, 490 00:32:52,000 --> 00:33:00,000 and some of the account written accounts sometimes incredible, sometimes unbelievable that I could not accept. 491 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:07,000 But of course, this is my opinion, because if I have seen one kind, then this is not to say the... 492 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:17,000 But some of the accounts do seem even to me, most remarkable, and sometimes to me unbelievable. 493 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:24,000 There is, of course, there is more than one craft which I saw, that also, as the guys in the report, 494 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:31,000 at one stage I think there were eight, that's the figure that I just...it comes to nine, but I think it was, wasn't it? 495 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:36,000 Certainly there was an 81 stage. Eight in the sky at one time. 496 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:37,000 Can you prove? 497 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,000 Yes, well, spread over the sky. 498 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,000 Yes, yes, who was the person who did this? 499 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:54,000 But there was one craft which I drew and described, which was unlike this major craft which I had again talking about, 500 00:33:54,000 --> 00:34:05,000 the mother ship, or the mother craft, it would, in itself, seem to be just a cylinder, from our distance about a quarter of an inch thick. 501 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:06,000 Still is, though. 502 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:17,000 It is, I'm sorry. It is about a quarter of an inch thick from where we were, and that had little light spots on it, 503 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:21,000 rectangular light spots, which I suppose were some kind of portholes. 504 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:32,000 Could you please give us some indication of the relationship and time of what you're speaking about now with the initial fighting? 505 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,000 This was all over two days, two nights. 506 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:36,000 I see. 507 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,000 In two nights. 508 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,000 How long? 509 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:43,000 There were two long stagings which were described in the report. 510 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:47,000 Now, virtually, these were the only ones which I could identify. 511 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:48,000 How long? 512 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,000 So, how long? 513 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,000 One was two hours. 514 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,000 Well, it was longer than that, I think. 515 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:54,000 Wasn't it, though? 516 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,000 Can you remember what figures? 517 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,000 But it was considerable time. 518 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:06,000 There was one stage, I think, when it was very long, yes, when it was 10 to 10 p.m. 519 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:11,000 From about, oh, quarter to six, it looked like 10. 520 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:15,000 It looked like seven pictures, but it was unrepentant. 521 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:20,000 It looked, of course, a natural or possibly super natural. 522 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,000 Not super natural, as I thought. 523 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,000 No, that's my impression. 524 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:31,000 Would you say there were machines, man-like people going about some sort of operation? 525 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,000 This is exactly as it seemed. 526 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,000 No, that's too much of a quarter of an inch. 527 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,000 What was the quarter of an inch there? 528 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,000 That. 529 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,000 Or a quarter of an inch around the length? 530 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,000 I mean, a quarter of an inch there. 531 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:44,000 There. 532 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,000 The quarter of an inch there is still the same thing. 533 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:51,000 But this was a quite a minute sort of thing. 534 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,000 Yes, I see. 535 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:55,000 Because I'm as good as this was. 536 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,000 It's just very well to be here. 537 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:04,000 It just seemed out there at this, which was about a quarter of an inch thick. 538 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:08,000 But as there is, you know, the density of that, by the shoulders. 539 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,000 That's a quarter of an inch around the length, isn't it? 540 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,000 You mean a quarter of an inch at arm's length? 541 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,000 No, a quarter of an inch as I thought. 542 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:17,000 Because a quarter of an inch at a hundred yards you can't see, surely. 543 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:18,000 No, it's not. 544 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,000 That was the image. 545 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:22,000 That's the image. 546 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:23,000 That was the image. 547 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:24,000 The image. 548 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:25,000 Here's the quarter. 549 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:26,000 The next thing I see. 550 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,000 That's the quarter of an inch at arm's length. 551 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,000 That was a hundred yards away. 552 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,000 As I saw it, everybody imagined it was at arm's length, I think. 553 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,000 No, it was just as I saw it. 554 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:40,000 You mean, as I saw it, it seemed to be whatever the distance, 555 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,000 whether it was one yard or one mile, I don't know. 556 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:47,000 But it was a disc, which to my eyes was about a quarter of an inch thick. 557 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:48,000 That's your idea. 558 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:55,000 I'm not saying to this, I'm not one of these fellows who knows how to measure 559 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,000 or what to do with me, that's one thing I'm saying to this guy. 560 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:05,000 If I saw a plane, I only know the, I can only judge the distance of a plane 561 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,000 because I see one on the ground, so I've got to say, model. 562 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,000 But if you can, it's a new kind of plane. 563 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,000 I'm not as lost as they are. 564 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:16,000 I'm basically saying, I'm not as lost as they are. 565 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,000 No, it's a seven-inch plane. 566 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:19,000 It's a nine-inch or a half-inch. 567 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,000 Three-quarters of an inch at the maximum. 568 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:22,000 What? 569 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,000 You see a seven-hundred-seven flying at the maximum. 570 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,000 Three-quarters of an inch to your definition. 571 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:27,000 That's all. 572 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,000 Mind rocks for this. 573 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:29,000 Yes. 574 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,000 That's quite a few. 575 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,000 Anyway, that's just it. 576 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,000 Another question. 577 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:36,000 Yes. 578 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:41,000 The way you were able to form an opinion as to whether the people, 579 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,000 which you saw are common people, were killed in any way, 580 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,000 or had anything on their heads, or were they just a cloud-dive? 581 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,000 No, they were, well, more than out-dives, 582 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:54,000 but they were seem to be solids, 583 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,000 but there was no indication of phoning. 584 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,000 No color. 585 00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,000 No color. 586 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,000 It wasn't the way it was. 587 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:08,000 So, Bill, can you be absolutely sure that there were just people on the deck of the ship offshore? 588 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:09,000 No, I can't. 589 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,000 I can't be sure about anything. 590 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:16,000 All I can be sure about is the image that I have in my mind of what I saw. 591 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,000 And this had me worried. 592 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:27,000 This is the reason for my getting several of the more educated among me witnesses to get into the corners of the room 593 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,000 and say, now, draw what you saw. 594 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:35,000 And three or four of those drawings are incorporated in the report. 595 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:43,000 And we can see them that there are significant similarities. 596 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,000 That is, say, the object difference. 597 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,000 That's as much as you could possibly hope for. 598 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,000 That's right. 599 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:54,000 Because people have entirely different ratios of graphic interpretation. 600 00:38:54,000 --> 00:39:01,000 You'll notice, right, you'll notice one of them has in fact viewed it from a thought, 601 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:03,000 which, of course, was impossible. 602 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,000 But it's probably amazing that one. 603 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:12,000 Bill, didn't you say that the thing took off after the sighting, which you shouldn't possibly have done? 604 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:16,000 So, I think that excludes the possibility of being in ship. 605 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:23,000 In those days, there were all kinds of rumors about machines, you know, the atomic age and all that. 606 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:29,000 And a hovercraft, I think it was just at the beginning of the age of the hovercraft. 607 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:33,000 And this could have been a hovercraft to us, which is some kind of, you know, 608 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:41,000 and particularly me as not being more than a man of the humanities rather than a scientist. 609 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:51,000 I was not even prepared at the beginning to really believe that they were not something which was quite from the end. 610 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:55,000 In those days, it was lucky that they'd shot some of the people who were in the heart of life. 611 00:39:55,000 --> 00:40:04,000 Yes, but for me, you see, and particularly being victim of the world there, 612 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:13,000 the state's impact, big coincides with some of the years on, as I'm saying, the passing away. 613 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,000 It's nothing like a hovercraft, is it? 614 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:17,000 No. 615 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:20,000 There's nothing that's supposed to be something you can't have to listen to. 616 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:27,000 It's not like you saw this craft and people did the working on this. 617 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,000 Then a day passed. 618 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:30,000 Yes. 619 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,000 And during which nothing was there. 620 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,000 That's right. 621 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,000 And then you saw this and other craft, you think. 622 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:37,000 Yes. 623 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:43,000 Now, it's reasonable to assume you're not the working on something. 624 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:46,000 I'm not even going to let you discuss this. 625 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:52,000 Of course, you could wonder why after an interval in which to assume that they're not working. 626 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:56,000 And if you don't, come back. 627 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,000 Yes, I guess that's the second night, I wonder. 628 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,000 And so, it's quite some time after us. 629 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:11,000 Of course, my eyes were rarely off the sky at night, wondering whether I'd ever see such a thing again. 630 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:18,000 But of course, it's not going to report, because there's a particular type of object there before it was meant to be. 631 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:22,000 But yes, I guess I did, in retrospect. 632 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:27,000 If you see the gauges and call it that, what about a little bit of Peter, though, something. 633 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:34,000 Then there's a bit of a ramp, you mentioned, as a platter on the corrugated iron roof. 634 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:44,000 I suppose, guessing, I'm not guessing, some sort of effect could be obtained by a downward drag, a considerable force. 635 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:48,000 Is that your impression as to what it might have been? 636 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:49,000 No. 637 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,000 It was thought that it was going to be a lot of loose. 638 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,000 The rest is not physically. 639 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,000 Oh, no, not physically, anyway. 640 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,000 So, it wasn't the sort of thing you might get, was it? 641 00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:58,000 No. 642 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:06,000 No, it was rather like, let's say a six inch bolt being dropped from, let's say, 20 or 30 feet. 643 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,000 You felt a grasp. 644 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:09,000 No. 645 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:12,000 You felt a sense of the experience of that. 646 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,000 The moment of the, of the, of the, yes. 647 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,000 We had to cross, cut up, cut up, cut up, cut up, cut up, cut up. 648 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:20,000 You think the world the way you could, the world the way. 649 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,000 And it ties up, of course, the focus, that's the one. 650 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:24,000 That's the one. 651 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,000 That's the big point. 652 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:32,000 I think what others think, I believe that we are in a show, I believe we can already show 653 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:38,000 that the connection between some of the entities, the entities they are, the detainees, 654 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:45,000 that they are, that the program is identical, some of the entities are maybe identical with what we call the objects. 655 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:49,000 They will do something that doesn't sound like a public object. 656 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:50,000 Something. 657 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:51,000 No. 658 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:57,000 The thing is, I think, shopping, there was nothing, except that there was no, there was no dense, 659 00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,000 nothing visible there, much less. 660 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:05,000 I was sorry to get me this way, because it's not the first one, but I think it's the first day of post-sumption. 661 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,000 No, it's a man in the box. 662 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:11,000 Now, in terms of communication, I'm actually not sure. 663 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:18,000 Did you think that there was a reliance on cars, so you can really think that way, the old, 664 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:25,000 or if there's a particular sponsorship, or if there's some kind of criticism about the master in any class, 665 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,000 what was your feeling? 666 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,000 We felt the fact. 667 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:34,000 Coming to the subject, we felt that they were responding. 668 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,000 That's a deliberately wish to ask your audience. 669 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:38,000 Yes. 670 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,000 Look, this was our interpretation. 671 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,000 But of course, this may not have happened to me. 672 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,000 Again, it may not have happened to me earlier, but this is how we felt. 673 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:47,000 Yes. 674 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,000 That's my life. 675 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,000 Because I'm, this is their so long time. 676 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,000 They are your response, not yours. 677 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,000 Our response to them? 678 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,000 Your response to them was? 679 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:59,000 No response was.
