1
00:00:04,910 --> 00:00:02,869
now Linda you were walking along the

2
00:00:07,010 --> 00:00:04,920
banks of the river mersey in Manchester

3
00:00:10,790 --> 00:00:07,020
in Didsbury where you live with two of

4
00:00:12,230 --> 00:00:10,800
your children yes and you saw what uh we

5
00:00:16,250 --> 00:00:12,240
were walking along the banks Picking

6
00:00:18,410 --> 00:00:16,260
Wildflowers uh we saw this object come

7
00:00:21,590 --> 00:00:18,420
over our heads it was this oval object

8
00:00:24,950 --> 00:00:21,600
pinky orange which landed

9
00:00:27,290 --> 00:00:24,960
down over a hill vertically

10
00:00:29,150 --> 00:00:27,300
we ran up to see what it was our first

11
00:00:31,910 --> 00:00:29,160
thought was it was an aircraft on fire

12
00:00:33,770 --> 00:00:31,920
we live quite near Manchester Airport it

13
00:00:35,090 --> 00:00:33,780
was big oh it was very big it was 60

14
00:00:42,170 --> 00:00:35,100
foot across

15
00:00:44,450 --> 00:00:42,180
hovering two foot off the ground we just

16
00:00:46,549 --> 00:00:44,460
stared at it we were transfixed the

17
00:00:49,130 --> 00:00:46,559
three of us were just watching this

18
00:00:51,350 --> 00:00:49,140
object and it just seemed to hover and

19
00:00:53,090 --> 00:00:51,360
there was complete silence no noise at

20
00:00:55,549 --> 00:00:53,100
all and when you ran toward it what was

21
00:00:57,290 --> 00:00:55,559
happening on the ground

22
00:00:58,850 --> 00:00:57,300
um well nothing has happened in the

23
00:01:00,529 --> 00:00:58,860
grass move or something uh

24
00:01:02,450 --> 00:01:00,539
uh Marine pack when you're running back

25
00:01:04,430 --> 00:01:02,460
yeah what happened yes when we were

26
00:01:06,350 --> 00:01:04,440
running away from the objects the grass

27
00:01:07,550 --> 00:01:06,360
seemed to move the side of us and in

28
00:01:09,109 --> 00:01:07,560
front of us are sort of blowing about

29
00:01:11,630 --> 00:01:09,119
well it's a good sort of path for you as

30
00:01:13,969 --> 00:01:11,640
it were no no it was the grass was

31
00:01:15,530 --> 00:01:13,979
overgrown on the riverbank but it seemed

32
00:01:18,289 --> 00:01:15,540
to be blowing over

33
00:01:21,170 --> 00:01:18,299
and when you got home what happened well

34
00:01:25,670 --> 00:01:21,180
when we got home we saw my husband who

35
00:01:27,530 --> 00:01:25,680
then was on a a shift a 210 shift and I

36
00:01:30,170 --> 00:01:27,540
said what are you doing home because

37
00:01:33,289 --> 00:01:30,180
we'd run out of the house at 7 30 in the

38
00:01:34,130 --> 00:01:33,299
evening and obviously he was home it was

39
00:01:37,310 --> 00:01:34,140
dark

40
00:01:39,649 --> 00:01:37,320
we didn't realize until 18 months later

41
00:01:41,210 --> 00:01:39,659
that was an hour missing out of our time

42
00:01:43,670 --> 00:01:41,220
oh she had a similar experience to

43
00:01:44,749 --> 00:01:43,680
Dorothy here yeah lost time yes and

44
00:01:46,969 --> 00:01:44,759
there was some effect on your skin

45
00:01:49,670 --> 00:01:46,979
wasn't it yes my eyes were burnt and

46
00:01:52,310 --> 00:01:49,680
scaly underneath my eyes now you can't

47
00:01:53,510 --> 00:01:52,320
account for that no I couldn't so it

48
00:01:55,429 --> 00:01:53,520
wasn't everybody's evening wasn't it

49
00:01:57,770 --> 00:01:55,439
wasn't sunny I mean uh it was dusk it

50
00:01:58,969 --> 00:01:57,780
was like an August evening so it

51
00:02:01,190 --> 00:01:58,979
certainly imagine you want to go to Sun

52
00:02:03,170 --> 00:02:01,200
town would you no no I don't think so

53
00:02:05,330 --> 00:02:03,180
um I hadn't been out that day now some

54
00:02:06,770 --> 00:02:05,340
time later 18 months later just to move

55
00:02:08,870 --> 00:02:06,780
this on a bit you were persuaded to go

56
00:02:11,089 --> 00:02:08,880
and see a hypnotist and you and your

57
00:02:13,610 --> 00:02:11,099
daughter I gather both gave that

58
00:02:16,430 --> 00:02:13,620
hypnotist I'm almost identical

59
00:02:18,650 --> 00:02:16,440
version of what had happened previously

60
00:02:20,690 --> 00:02:18,660
and when you recounted it to the heavens

61
00:02:21,710 --> 00:02:20,700
it's under hypnosis yes what did you

62
00:02:24,350 --> 00:02:21,720
tell him

63
00:02:27,350 --> 00:02:24,360
uh under hypnosis I don't remember

64
00:02:30,110 --> 00:02:27,360
anything at all about the hypnosis only

65
00:02:31,490 --> 00:02:30,120
what I have seen on videotape and we'll

66
00:02:34,010 --> 00:02:31,500
stress this you've seen yourself back

67
00:02:37,670 --> 00:02:34,020
that's correct my only conscious memory

68
00:02:39,650 --> 00:02:37,680
of this object was seeing the object it

69
00:02:42,470 --> 00:02:39,660
seemed to disappear and appear and we

70
00:02:44,630 --> 00:02:42,480
ran away from it right uh oh we saw it

71
00:02:46,790 --> 00:02:44,640
actually following on the tail of a

72
00:02:48,350 --> 00:02:46,800
plane going into Manchester Airport as

73
00:02:51,110 --> 00:02:48,360
we were nearing our home

74
00:02:52,970 --> 00:02:51,120
but I don't remember anything about the

75
00:02:56,750 --> 00:02:52,980
hypnosis only what I have seen on

76
00:02:57,710 --> 00:02:56,760
videotape and I find it very hard to

77
00:03:01,130 --> 00:02:57,720
accept

78
00:03:04,009 --> 00:03:01,140
what I actually said under hypnosis

79
00:03:05,589 --> 00:03:04,019
well what was said was I ran down the

80
00:03:08,750 --> 00:03:05,599
hill the three of us ran down the hill

81
00:03:11,589 --> 00:03:08,760
we thought we were running home

82
00:03:14,390 --> 00:03:11,599
we went into this man in dark clothing

83
00:03:16,630 --> 00:03:14,400
tall dark eyes

84
00:03:20,330 --> 00:03:16,640
then there was a sensation of floating

85
00:03:22,790 --> 00:03:20,340
and then being on a table and have feel

86
00:03:25,250 --> 00:03:22,800
having feelings of eyes put on our legs

87
00:03:27,710 --> 00:03:25,260
and lights shine in our eyes and that's

88
00:03:30,290 --> 00:03:27,720
all I remember and there were six of

89
00:03:33,170 --> 00:03:30,300
them and they all looked the same now I

90
00:03:34,910 --> 00:03:33,180
just can't accept this but

91
00:03:36,410 --> 00:03:34,920
this is what's on that's what you said

92
00:03:38,930 --> 00:03:36,420
on the hypnosis right that's correct now

93
00:03:40,190 --> 00:03:38,940
I have to say well I imagine anyway that

94
00:03:41,570 --> 00:03:40,200
when you when you recount this story

95
00:03:42,770 --> 00:03:41,580
what happened to you under hypnosis to

96
00:03:45,229 --> 00:03:42,780
your children Manchester you don't get

97
00:03:47,530 --> 00:03:45,239
an entirely sympathetic hearing I don't

98
00:03:50,449 --> 00:03:47,540
talk to them a lot about that

99
00:03:52,369 --> 00:03:50,459
on a November evening about 10 years ago

100
00:03:53,990 --> 00:03:52,379
Linda Jones took a young son and

101
00:03:55,550 --> 00:03:54,000
daughter for a walk along a Manchester

102
00:03:57,410 --> 00:03:55,560
Canal bank

103
00:03:58,190 --> 00:03:57,420
suddenly they saw a bright light in the

104
00:04:00,110 --> 00:03:58,200
sky

105
00:04:01,430 --> 00:04:00,120
it looked like it was going to hit us

106
00:04:04,070 --> 00:04:01,440
directly

107
00:04:07,910 --> 00:04:04,080
we dot enter the grass

108
00:04:11,210 --> 00:04:07,920
it landed vertically in a field

109
00:04:13,309 --> 00:04:11,220
over a hill we ran up the hill we

110
00:04:15,770 --> 00:04:13,319
thought we were going to see an aircraft

111
00:04:18,650 --> 00:04:15,780
in Flames or something but it was just

112
00:04:20,390 --> 00:04:18,660
this object's total silence not making

113
00:04:23,090 --> 00:04:20,400
any noise at all

114
00:04:25,129 --> 00:04:23,100
it was then shaped like a half moon

115
00:04:27,469 --> 00:04:25,139
really good a structure the

116
00:04:32,090 --> 00:04:27,479
undercarriage of it we stood there

117
00:04:37,670 --> 00:04:35,510
with statuses it was hovering two foot

118
00:04:39,950 --> 00:04:37,680
off the ground

119
00:04:41,810 --> 00:04:39,960
it turned out that Linda lost track of

120
00:04:44,990 --> 00:04:41,820
about half an hour of time during the

121
00:04:47,270 --> 00:04:45,000
encounter At first she told no one years

122
00:04:49,310 --> 00:04:47,280
later under hypnosis she recalls an

123
00:04:51,590 --> 00:04:49,320
experience on board the craft but she

124
00:05:00,710 --> 00:04:51,600
doesn't like to recall it now I don't
