1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
I am calling from Portland.

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:09,000
Yes. Have you had any reports of UFOs over the Portland area?

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,000
No ma'am, not recently.

4
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:16,000
Well I saw something Thursday night that still got me shaking.

5
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,000
Okay, what did I care about?

6
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,000
The moon, I walked over to the neighbors about 6.30.

7
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,000
And the moon and evening star were still bright.

8
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,000
I remember the lead not a game.

9
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,000
I stopped to watch them.

10
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:37,000
And as I was watching them from, well I would say almost to the coast

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:42,000
that looked that far in the distance, first distance is just feeding at night.

12
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,000
Yes.

13
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:49,000
And it was just like a blunt object coming, but it was lit.

14
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:56,000
And I'd say like a kid's folded airplane that they shoot, you know, flying here.

15
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,000
Yes.

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:02,000
And in a matter of seconds, it was over Portland in the saucer shape.

17
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:11,000
It was a metallic outline in blue, red and green stationary light.

18
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:18,000
And it would kind of hover and then it would like a slow spinning top.

19
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:25,000
And I watched it for a few seconds and I thought, well, Billy's got to see this.

20
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:31,000
So I hurried to pass back to the apartment, got in and went to her back door

21
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,000
and opened it up and the thing was gone.

22
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,000
There was no sight of anything.

23
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:41,000
And I can't get any information out of anybody here in Portland.

24
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,000
They don't seem to know anything.

25
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,000
So finally they came in your phone number and I thought, well,

26
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,000
it's not going to cost me a lot of that, but go easy on something else.

27
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,000
Okay, now, could you actually make out a disc shape object?

28
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Absolutely.

29
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:07,000
It was disc shape and it, oh, I'd say it was possibly eight to ten feet across.

30
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,000
And it wasn't too far in the distance.

31
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:14,000
It looked to me like it was hovering right over the new hospital here on Mount Scott.

32
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,000
Okay, now, you say that this thing appeared to be rotating.

33
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,000
Yes, it was rotating.

34
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Were those lights that were on this disc also rotating around?

35
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,000
They were stable.

36
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,000
They were stable?

37
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,000
Okay.

38
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000
It was just like somebody had spun Christmas tree lights on it.

39
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:35,000
But they were, first it was a real blue and then a real red and then I think it was green.

40
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,000
It took me to the price.

41
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,000
I'm surprised and I'm still stunned from it.

42
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,000
I don't mean maybe.

43
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,000
Okay, was this it?

44
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,000
Would you say it was at a fairly low altitude?

45
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,000
Yes, it was.

46
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,000
I see, okay.

47
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:53,000
It came from a high altitude and then all of a sudden it was just above the tree top.

48
00:02:53,000 --> 00:03:03,000
In fact, it went behind the trees and I ran in the house because I thought, well, by the time I get into the apartment and back out through the back door,

49
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:07,000
I'll be back from behind the trees again and Burley can see it.

50
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,000
But there was no sign of anything then.

51
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:14,000
Now you say that it actually was descending as you first thought.

52
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,000
Yes.

53
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,000
Okay, would this be coming more or less straight down or coming in at an angle?

54
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:29,000
Well, I'd say it was not straight down, it's kind of at an angle.

55
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,000
A slight angle.

56
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Okay.

57
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,000
Can you compare that object in size with anything else?

58
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,000
No.

59
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:42,000
I said about it would be at 8-10 feet wide.

60
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,000
8-10 feet, okay.

61
00:03:45,000 --> 00:04:02,000
It was metallic and at times it seemed like it was flat and I could only see the light on one side and then all of a sudden it would tilt toward the north just a little bit

62
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:15,000
and then I could see the light all the way around and then it would just slowly, like a dying top, spin for a few inches.

63
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,000
Yes.

64
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,000
It was just matter of seconds and it was gone.

65
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:24,000
Okay, now were these lights positioned around the perimeter or were they scattered over the whole object?

66
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,000
No, around the perimeter.

67
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,000
Okay.

68
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,000
And did you see any openings of any kind on this thing?

69
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,000
No, I couldn't.

70
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:35,000
It was too far in the distance to see any openings.

71
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,000
Okay.

72
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,000
It was around 6.30 at night so it was dark.

73
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,000
Okay.

74
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:48,000
If it hadn't been for that bright moon, I probably wouldn't have seen very much of anything but the moon was right over it.

75
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:55,000
Do you feel that it was actually picking up the light from the moon reflecting off of it?

76
00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:04,000
Well, I'd say the moon was probably reflecting on the metallic or the metal or whatever it was.

77
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,000
In other words, it was definitely illuminating the surface.

78
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,000
Yes.

79
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,000
Okay.

80
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,000
Did you hear any sound?

81
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:17,000
There was a...I can't explain the sound.

82
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,000
I thought there was a couple of airplanes flying around.

83
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:29,000
That's what, you know, because they had been planes going back and forth.

84
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,000
I live within just miles of the airport.

85
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,000
Yes.

86
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Back and forth all the time.

87
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:44,000
But otherwise, I couldn't say that there was any buzzing or any finding or anything else.

88
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,000
It just sounded like a couple of airplanes.

89
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,000
Okay.

90
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:55,000
Now, as you were watching the sky after this object disappeared, did you see any aircraft coming into the area?

91
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,000
No, I didn't.

92
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:57,000
Okay.

93
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,000
At least I don't know.

94
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:09,000
I was so flabbergasted and so stunned by the whole thing that it...well, I just...my son of a...I'm dafty.

95
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,000
I didn't see anything.

96
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,000
How long do you feel you watched that object?

97
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:27,000
I would say from the time I saw it coming in as just a blunt nose thing, way off in the distance, until it was gone, was less than three minutes.

98
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,000
Okay.

99
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Did those lights change in intensity as you were watching it?

100
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,000
No, they seemed to be all the same.

101
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,000
Okay.

102
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:44,000
I would continue as if like a Christmas tree might strung around.

103
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,000
Okay.

104
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,000
And what were the colors of those again?

105
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,000
Blue, red, and green.

106
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,000
I think green.

107
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,000
I won't say for sure.

108
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:59,000
I just...I know that the outline was blue and then there was a red.

109
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,000
They were all maybe up flat apart.

110
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,000
Okay.

111
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,000
Okay.

112
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,000
Well, we sure appreciate this report.

113
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Where did you get our numbers?

114
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:16,000
Um, I don't know who I called now to find out if they knew anything about it.

115
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,000
Would it be the airport?

116
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,000
The police department.

117
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,000
The police...oh, okay.

118
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,000
All right.

119
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:33,000
Well, we'll check this out and if we come up with any additional information relating to this, why we'll get back to you and let you know.

120
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:38,000
But I'm sure that what you saw was definitely not any type of conventional aircraft.

121
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,000
No, it was no aircraft.

122
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:49,000
And they tell me that they have an advertising deal on a plane.

123
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,000
Yes.

124
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,000
That's been certainly important in advertising something or another.

125
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:59,000
But that wouldn't spend like this did.

126
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,000
And this is what I say.

127
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:06,000
It's fun for just seconds, just like a top slowing down.

128
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,000
Right.

129
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,000
And then it was gone.

130
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,000
It's just a period of the classic game.

131
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:22,000
And it came in at an extreme fast speed from way south, southwest of me.

132
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,000
Yes.

133
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,000
Okay.

134
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,000
Well, thanks again and we'll get back to you if we get any more on it.

135
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,000
Okay.

136
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:34,000
Well, I'd be happy to even drop a picture or something and send it up.

137
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:39,000
But I just had to find out if there's been any more reported or anything.

138
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:44,000
And it just set me, seriously.

139
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,000
In fact, my blood pressure has actually been the same.

140
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,000
This is the first in the world to burn your blood pressure up.

141
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,000
I don't know unless it was what I saw last night.

142
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,000
And we got to talking about it.

143
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:08,000
And he says, I heard over the radio just a day or two ago about unidentified objects down on the coast.

144
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,000
Right.

145
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,000
They've been seeing quite a few around Astoria and Seaside.

146
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,000
Yes.

147
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,000
Well, I have a name for the two women who saw them.

148
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:23,000
And I thought I'd write them a letter and see if it's the first time of it all that I saw.

149
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:28,000
But this thing just disappeared out of the first guy.

150
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:36,000
I don't know if it landed or if it just took off as a thingy.

151
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,000
Okay, well, we'll work on it.

152
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,000
Okay.

153
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:41,000
Thank you for the call.

154
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:42,000
You're welcome.

155
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,000
Bye.
