1
00:00:06,070 --> 00:00:03,189
well uh first beginning uh we were

2
00:00:08,150 --> 00:00:06,080
watching television and we have

3
00:00:10,549 --> 00:00:08,160
six dogs here and they started raising a

4
00:00:11,749 --> 00:00:10,559
fuss in which they never do much so i

5
00:00:13,749 --> 00:00:11,759
went outside

6
00:00:15,829 --> 00:00:13,759
and gave a yell at them and as i turned

7
00:00:18,070 --> 00:00:15,839
around to come back on the porch

8
00:00:20,310 --> 00:00:18,080
i looked to the north of me

9
00:00:23,349 --> 00:00:20,320
and uh there were

10
00:00:25,830 --> 00:00:23,359
looked like a fallen star or meter it

11
00:00:28,710 --> 00:00:25,840
was red and kind of coming down and on a

12
00:00:30,630 --> 00:00:28,720
45 45 and

13
00:00:31,910 --> 00:00:30,640
so then i

14
00:00:33,510 --> 00:00:31,920
watched it and i was going to see if it

15
00:00:35,750 --> 00:00:33,520
landed and then maybe go down and see

16
00:00:37,670 --> 00:00:35,760
what it was and uh when it got to the

17
00:00:41,030 --> 00:00:37,680
top of the trees it stopped

18
00:00:42,389 --> 00:00:41,040
in a blue and a white light come on

19
00:00:43,750 --> 00:00:42,399
and uh

20
00:00:45,029 --> 00:00:43,760
i looked at it and i thought i was

21
00:00:47,270 --> 00:00:45,039
seeing things

22
00:00:49,990 --> 00:00:47,280
frank banner's ufo remained over his

23
00:00:52,709 --> 00:00:50,000
swamp more than four hours his children

24
00:00:56,069 --> 00:00:52,719
saw it his in-laws saw it residents of

25
00:00:58,069 --> 00:00:56,079
the area saw it the police saw it

26
00:00:59,830 --> 00:00:58,079
no one photographed it but sergeant

27
00:01:02,389 --> 00:00:59,840
newell schneider of the sheriff's office

28
00:01:06,310 --> 00:01:02,399
remembered it well enough to draw it no

29
00:01:08,550 --> 00:01:06,320
it uh moved very rapidly at any speed or

30
00:01:10,070 --> 00:01:08,560
rather any direction it wanted to go why

31
00:01:12,710 --> 00:01:10,080
i could change and go to the right or

32
00:01:14,310 --> 00:01:12,720
the left or go crossways uh without

33
00:01:15,910 --> 00:01:14,320
hesitating a bit

34
00:01:17,510 --> 00:01:15,920
what do you think it was

35
00:01:19,429 --> 00:01:17,520
well if they call it a flying saucer

36
00:01:21,830 --> 00:01:19,439
that's what it is

37
00:01:24,149 --> 00:01:21,840
40 miles away another swamp land and

38
00:01:26,070 --> 00:01:24,159
another ufo sighting

39
00:01:28,070 --> 00:01:26,080
this is hillsdale and the girls at

40
00:01:29,109 --> 00:01:28,080
hillsdale college had a night to

41
00:01:30,789 --> 00:01:29,119
remember

42
00:01:33,830 --> 00:01:30,799
well when i was looking out the window

43
00:01:37,350 --> 00:01:33,840
with binoculars i guess it was about 12.

44
00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:37,360
i saw it and i saw two red lights and i

45
00:01:40,870 --> 00:01:39,520
saw what looked to be shaped like a pie

46
00:01:42,870 --> 00:01:40,880
i could just see the front of it i just

47
00:01:44,230 --> 00:01:42,880
saw the round front and i see the lights

48
00:01:45,590 --> 00:01:44,240
on either side

49
00:01:47,429 --> 00:01:45,600
and then the red light was sort of

50
00:01:48,710 --> 00:01:47,439
casting a glow over the whole thing so

51
00:01:51,030 --> 00:01:48,720
it looked like

52
00:01:52,389 --> 00:01:51,040
a round disc at first when i'd heard the

53
00:01:53,429 --> 00:01:52,399
other girls talk about it i didn't

54
00:01:57,429 --> 00:01:53,439
really

55
00:01:59,590 --> 00:01:57,439
make myself comprehend it because i

56
00:02:01,350 --> 00:01:59,600
hadn't seen it with my own eyes but then

57
00:02:04,630 --> 00:02:01,360
when i saw it

58
00:02:05,749 --> 00:02:04,640
i just was fascinated i wasn't afraid

59
00:02:12,790 --> 00:02:05,759
i

60
00:02:16,309 --> 00:02:12,800
but

61
00:02:18,710 --> 00:02:16,319
i don't

62
00:02:21,350 --> 00:02:18,720
i believe i saw it but i can't fathom it

63
00:02:23,430 --> 00:02:21,360
because it seems so unreal william van

64
00:02:26,150 --> 00:02:23,440
horn hillsdale's undertaker and civil

65
00:02:28,150 --> 00:02:26,160
defense director also spotted the ufo

66
00:02:31,030 --> 00:02:28,160
and was out with his geiger counter next

67
00:02:33,430 --> 00:02:31,040
day checking a mysterious perfect circle

68
00:02:35,910 --> 00:02:33,440
where the ufo had been seen

69
00:02:37,670 --> 00:02:35,920
van horn did not find any radioactivity

70
00:02:39,589 --> 00:02:37,680
here but this did not shake his

71
00:02:41,670 --> 00:02:39,599
certainty that he had seen a hovering

72
00:02:43,589 --> 00:02:41,680
vehicle with two lights

73
00:02:46,470 --> 00:02:43,599
many people ask him why he did not go

74
00:02:48,550 --> 00:02:46,480
right up to the ufo in the dark i'd uh

75
00:02:49,430 --> 00:02:48,560
much rather be a live coward than a dead

76
00:02:52,229 --> 00:02:49,440
hero

77
00:02:53,589 --> 00:02:52,239
and with the area of uncertainty that we

78
00:02:55,830 --> 00:02:53,599
have here

79
00:02:57,110 --> 00:02:55,840
how do i know but what

80
00:03:01,190 --> 00:02:57,120
maybe

81
00:03:03,509 --> 00:03:01,200
uh another electrical charge which is

82
00:03:05,190 --> 00:03:03,519
being radiated by one of these vehicles

83
00:03:07,030 --> 00:03:05,200
which would uh

84
00:03:09,270 --> 00:03:07,040
electrocute you if you got within a

85
00:03:11,910 --> 00:03:09,280
certain area of it there was no sound

86
00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:11,920
whatsoever i could not hear a

87
00:03:17,030 --> 00:03:14,560
a bit of sound nycaps director major

88
00:03:19,350 --> 00:03:17,040
donald e kehoe a retired marine corps

89
00:03:22,070 --> 00:03:19,360
officer insisted that the air force knew

90
00:03:24,550 --> 00:03:22,080
more than it was telling we are

91
00:03:27,110 --> 00:03:24,560
being observed

92
00:03:29,830 --> 00:03:27,120
by some type of device

93
00:03:31,430 --> 00:03:29,840
which is ahead of us

94
00:03:33,110 --> 00:03:31,440
far ahead of us and is probably

95
00:03:35,830 --> 00:03:33,120
controlled by a

96
00:03:38,070 --> 00:03:35,840
highly advanced superior civilization

97
00:03:40,949 --> 00:03:38,080
now this is a conclusion which i

98
00:03:43,030 --> 00:03:40,959
personally have stated and is shared by

99
00:03:44,830 --> 00:03:43,040
some members of our board of governors

100
00:03:46,869 --> 00:03:44,840
and advisers not all of

101
00:03:49,190 --> 00:03:46,879
them but

102
00:03:51,030 --> 00:03:49,200
it has reached to the point where

103
00:03:53,030 --> 00:03:51,040
many people in the air force have the

104
00:03:54,949 --> 00:03:53,040
same conclusion in fact the air force at

105
00:03:56,630 --> 00:03:54,959
one time had a top secret estimate that

106
00:03:57,990 --> 00:03:56,640
these things were interplanetary

107
00:03:59,670 --> 00:03:58,000
spaceships

108
00:04:01,429 --> 00:03:59,680
so you will see that this instead of

109
00:04:03,670 --> 00:04:01,439
being a

110
00:04:05,990 --> 00:04:03,680
subject for ridicule

111
00:04:08,309 --> 00:04:06,000
and a big joke actually is a serious

112
00:04:09,589 --> 00:04:08,319
matter which could affect the lives of

113
00:04:11,750 --> 00:04:09,599
all of us

114
00:04:14,149 --> 00:04:11,760
and for the umpteenth time in as many

115
00:04:15,910 --> 00:04:14,159
years the air force called before a

116
00:04:18,150 --> 00:04:15,920
congressional committee said it was

117
00:04:20,229 --> 00:04:18,160
hiding nothing air force secretary

118
00:04:22,150 --> 00:04:20,239
harold brown we have

119
00:04:24,550 --> 00:04:22,160
not been hiding anything

120
00:04:27,749 --> 00:04:24,560
the investigations have been

121
00:04:29,909 --> 00:04:27,759
made public the explanations of those

122
00:04:31,430 --> 00:04:29,919
where there is a clear explanation have

123
00:04:34,230 --> 00:04:31,440
been made public the hearing this

124
00:04:37,189 --> 00:04:34,240
morning was public for just that reason

125
00:04:39,990 --> 00:04:37,199
in those cases where for lack of data or

126
00:04:41,270 --> 00:04:40,000
lack of a convincing hypothesis

127
00:04:45,510 --> 00:04:41,280
the

128
00:04:47,830 --> 00:04:45,520
unidentified category we've been

129
00:04:50,390 --> 00:04:47,840
perfectly willing to say that too

130
00:04:52,550 --> 00:04:50,400
but if the air force had nothing to hide

131
00:04:54,230 --> 00:04:52,560
frank manor the michigan farmer who had

132
00:04:55,990 --> 00:04:54,240
brought in the first report

133
00:04:58,230 --> 00:04:56,000
was caught in the middle

134
00:05:00,230 --> 00:04:58,240
he was mad well you can look at here

what would you think if somebody was

138
00:05:04,870 --> 00:05:03,919
throwing beer bottles at your house

139
00:05:05,909 --> 00:05:04,880

140
00:05:07,029 --> 00:05:05,919
screaming

141
00:05:08,790 --> 00:05:07,039

that you did tell people what you saw

145
00:05:17,110 --> 00:05:15,280
yes i am i am i'm sorry because it

146
00:05:19,189 --> 00:05:17,120
not that it's not the truth but it's

147
00:05:21,110 --> 00:05:19,199
just the idea the reaction of the people

148
00:05:22,950 --> 00:05:21,120
they think you're a

149
00:05:24,870 --> 00:05:22,960

in here i just leave me alone

153
00:05:32,790 --> 00:05:30,960
and if the thing lands right there and

154
00:05:33,670 --> 00:05:32,800
right there by that punk i'd never say a

155
00:05:35,029 --> 00:05:33,680
word

156
00:05:36,629 --> 00:05:35,039
then he got out and talked to me i

157
00:05:37,990 --> 00:05:36,639
wouldn't tell nobody

158
00:05:40,790 --> 00:05:38,000
that's just the way i feel i'm bitter

159
00:05:42,870 --> 00:05:40,800
and and disgusted in the whole matter

160
00:05:44,790 --> 00:05:42,880
and if if people's going to act like

161
00:05:47,350 --> 00:05:44,800
that i hope one lands right in ann arbor

162
00:05:49,350 --> 00:05:47,360
right in the middle of detroit mr ford

163
00:05:51,189 --> 00:05:49,360
uh what about flying saucers you've had

164
00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:51,199
some in michigan in the past

165
00:05:54,390 --> 00:05:53,280
week if you really believe in flying

166
00:05:56,790 --> 00:05:54,400
saucers you've called for a

167
00:05:59,909 --> 00:05:56,800
congressional investigation dave we've

168
00:06:01,830 --> 00:05:59,919
had several uh incidents in michigan in

169
00:06:03,990 --> 00:06:01,840
the last week

170
00:06:04,950 --> 00:06:04,000
uh incident that

171
00:06:08,309 --> 00:06:04,960
many

172
00:06:11,590 --> 00:06:08,319
reliable good citizens felt were

173
00:06:14,390 --> 00:06:11,600
sufficient to justify some action by our

174
00:06:17,350 --> 00:06:14,400
government and not the kind of flip and

175
00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:17,360
answer that was given by the air force

176
00:06:23,590 --> 00:06:21,120
where they passed it off as a swamp gas

177
00:06:25,909 --> 00:06:23,600
the congress should investigate the rash

178
00:06:28,550 --> 00:06:25,919
of reported sightings of unidentified
