Berlin Reservoir 210 00:10:28,610 --> 00:10:26,160 Crossing water's edge and a bound to 211 00:10:29,870 --> 00:10:28,620 county line or after I had just passed a 212 00:10:35,030 --> 00:10:29,880 county line 213 00:10:39,350 --> 00:10:35,040 uh the vehicle came back to the north 214 00:10:41,210 --> 00:10:39,360 side of 224 215 00:10:43,190 --> 00:10:41,220 this uh 216 00:10:45,350 --> 00:10:43,200 I did this are you sure that the the 217 00:10:46,210 --> 00:10:45,360 actual the object actually moves in this 218 00:10:49,009 --> 00:10:46,220 direction 219 00:10:51,410 --> 00:10:49,019 or it uh was rolled straight at this 220 00:10:54,710 --> 00:10:51,420 time oh yes sir the road is uh very 221 00:10:57,050 --> 00:10:54,720 straight very straight okay okay uh so 222 00:10:59,389 --> 00:10:57,060 there's no curse in this at all the only 223 00:11:02,150 --> 00:10:59,399 time that we went around many objects 224 00:11:03,710 --> 00:11:02,160 was that Deerfield Circle uh which the 225 00:11:04,910 --> 00:11:03,720 road would run right through there's a 226 00:11:06,530 --> 00:11:04,920 circle in the middle so you go around 227 00:11:09,350 --> 00:11:06,540 and come right back out on it that 228 00:11:10,970 --> 00:11:09,360 there's no uh sharp angles or anything 229 00:11:15,410 --> 00:11:10,980 of this nature 230 00:11:19,509 --> 00:11:15,420 the vehicle then continued East it uh 231 00:11:23,210 --> 00:11:19,519 still uh made no uh effort to leave us 232 00:11:25,250 --> 00:11:23,220 and started increasing its speed 233 00:11:26,630 --> 00:11:25,260 uh could I ask you one question right 234 00:11:28,250 --> 00:11:26,640 about here we asked you and what 235 00:11:30,230 --> 00:11:28,260 position on the windshield were you able 236 00:11:33,050 --> 00:11:30,240 to see the object uh middle the lower 237 00:11:35,389 --> 00:11:33,060 part or the upper part well it uh when 238 00:11:37,490 --> 00:11:35,399 it was on the North side it would be 239 00:11:41,329 --> 00:11:37,500 just above the mid part of the 240 00:11:44,150 --> 00:11:41,339 windshield uh inside the post with the 241 00:11:45,889 --> 00:11:44,160 the object uh viewing it uh at an angle 242 00:11:49,210 --> 00:11:45,899 and the car would have been between the 243 00:11:52,310 --> 00:11:49,220 rear view mirror and the uh and the post 244 00:11:54,710 --> 00:11:52,320 of the windshield how far down to the 245 00:11:57,350 --> 00:11:54,720 top uh 246 00:12:00,769 --> 00:11:57,360 over this time I don't remember if I was 247 00:12:04,069 --> 00:12:00,779 bent over uh observing it or if I was 248 00:12:06,590 --> 00:12:04,079 looking from a full setting position I 249 00:12:09,170 --> 00:12:06,600 know that uh Barney had leaned forward 250 00:12:11,930 --> 00:12:09,180 and was watching it from his side of the 251 00:12:14,630 --> 00:12:11,940 vehicle I and I couldn't state if I had 252 00:12:17,569 --> 00:12:14,640 leaned forward would you say that the 253 00:12:19,310 --> 00:12:17,579 elephant was low very low sir very low 254 00:12:21,829 --> 00:12:19,320 what was your what was your estimate of 255 00:12:25,550 --> 00:12:21,839 distance away from you I would say that 256 00:12:28,190 --> 00:12:25,560 uh my estimate I would estimate my 257 00:12:30,590 --> 00:12:28,200 distance at this time as we were moving 258 00:12:32,569 --> 00:12:30,600 at approximately 259 00:12:35,269 --> 00:12:32,579 three quarters in length or the length 260 00:12:38,290 --> 00:12:35,279 of a football field at 100 yards to our 261 00:12:41,389 --> 00:12:38,300 immediate left or north of 224c 262 00:12:42,850 --> 00:12:41,399 then you also say uh in my talk last 263 00:12:46,370 --> 00:12:42,860 night that uh 264 00:12:49,430 --> 00:12:46,380 it did light up objects and uh like the 265 00:12:52,009 --> 00:12:49,440 crane and things of that nature yes 266 00:12:56,810 --> 00:12:52,019 until it did increase its Solitude it 267 00:12:59,870 --> 00:12:56,820 seems or so uh this flight uh 268 00:13:03,710 --> 00:12:59,880 in a definite space did curtail itself 269 00:13:06,530 --> 00:13:03,720 at uh uh at this time 270 00:13:07,490 --> 00:13:06,540 however after had increased its altitude 271 00:13:10,370 --> 00:13:07,500 it was 272 00:13:13,370 --> 00:13:10,380 too far to the uh away from the edge 273 00:13:15,410 --> 00:13:13,380 that we could watch yet see the road 274 00:13:17,569 --> 00:13:15,420 driving see what was happening on the 275 00:13:20,569 --> 00:13:17,579 ground at the same time it's uh it would 276 00:13:22,790 --> 00:13:20,579 have meant we had to either give up 277 00:13:24,829 --> 00:13:22,800 observing the vehicle and try to observe 278 00:13:27,170 --> 00:13:24,839 what was happening on the ground and at 279 00:13:29,530 --> 00:13:27,180 this time I the ground wasn't even in my 280 00:13:33,610 --> 00:13:29,540 mind I'd never entered it 281 00:13:36,110 --> 00:13:33,620 we followed it uh it did a one-time 282 00:13:38,090 --> 00:13:36,120 gained quite a bit of altitude this is 283 00:13:41,870 --> 00:13:38,100 uh only would have been coming into 284 00:13:44,449 --> 00:13:41,880 Canfield uh as for its reason for doing 285 00:13:46,129 --> 00:13:44,459 it I don't know but it did stay in a 286 00:13:47,569 --> 00:13:46,139 distinct pattern right beside the 287 00:13:49,430 --> 00:13:47,579 highway 288 00:13:52,250 --> 00:13:49,440 uh 289 00:13:52,990 --> 00:13:52,260 coming into Unity when the vehicle had 290 00:13:55,550 --> 00:13:53,000 had 291 00:13:57,769 --> 00:13:55,560 given up part of its Solitude again and 292 00:14:00,410 --> 00:13:57,779 so it went back down where it could look 293 00:14:02,269 --> 00:14:00,420 things over and I'm I'm saying this is 294 00:14:03,949 --> 00:14:02,279 what it appeared to be doing I don't 295 00:14:05,329 --> 00:14:03,959 know what it was going 296 00:14:08,750 --> 00:14:05,339 uh 297 00:14:11,090 --> 00:14:08,760 at this time the East Palestine Cruiser 298 00:14:14,690 --> 00:14:11,100 came in behind us this was the only 299 00:14:17,329 --> 00:14:14,700 Cruiser that didn't make connections at 300 00:14:19,310 --> 00:14:17,339 this time it could could get on the road 301 00:14:23,269 --> 00:14:19,320 with us 302 00:14:26,269 --> 00:14:23,279 he in turn fell in behind me the vehicle 303 00:14:27,050 --> 00:14:26,279 at this time was clocking 103 miles an 304 00:14:29,329 --> 00:14:27,060 hour 305 00:14:31,129 --> 00:14:29,339 it showed the same there was a deviation 306 00:14:34,610 --> 00:14:31,139 of about a half mile between the two 307 00:14:35,710 --> 00:14:34,620 speedometers as we were going along 308 00:14:39,710 --> 00:14:35,720 um 309 00:14:41,210 --> 00:14:39,720 what route uh this is uh 310 00:14:44,269 --> 00:14:41,220 51 311 00:14:46,129 --> 00:14:44,279 are you over to 24 now I'm not sure if 312 00:14:47,870 --> 00:14:46,139 this is what we went off of it or not I 313 00:14:51,410 --> 00:14:47,880 I don't remember exactly when we 314 00:14:53,750 --> 00:14:51,420 switched routes I uh I was uh 315 00:14:56,990 --> 00:14:53,760 and the roads are not familiar with me 316 00:14:59,930 --> 00:14:57,000 and a couple of times like when there 317 00:15:01,870 --> 00:14:59,940 was obstructions or views there I had to 318 00:15:05,509 --> 00:15:01,880 have Bonnie to maintain complete contact 319 00:15:08,569 --> 00:15:05,519 and I maneuvered through these uh bad 320 00:15:14,810 --> 00:15:12,949 only uh immunity uh I know the town name 321 00:15:17,750 --> 00:15:14,820 of the town I didn't know at this time I 322 00:15:18,949 --> 00:15:17,760 found it out on my return trip 323 00:15:22,730 --> 00:15:18,959 [Music] 324 00:15:25,009 --> 00:15:22,740 these Palestine car came in behind me 325 00:15:27,769 --> 00:15:25,019 poisoning is the Palestine Park Wayne 326 00:15:30,230 --> 00:15:27,779 Houston he's a patrolman in his son was 327 00:15:33,009 --> 00:15:30,240 he by himself yes he was he was he was 328 00:15:36,290 --> 00:15:33,019 all alone in his car 329 00:15:39,410 --> 00:15:36,300 he was trying to after he immediately 330 00:15:41,449 --> 00:15:39,420 picked up the object and he could 331 00:15:44,269 --> 00:15:41,459 observe it very well with us when he 332 00:15:46,069 --> 00:15:44,279 seen that Versace was there we were 333 00:15:47,329 --> 00:15:46,079 running with it 334 00:15:54,290 --> 00:15:47,339 uh 335 00:15:56,090 --> 00:15:54,300 dispatcher evidently was a little tired 336 00:15:58,310 --> 00:15:56,100 of something and he couldn't get him to 337 00:16:01,310 --> 00:15:58,320 quite understand he had not been copying 338 00:16:03,290 --> 00:16:01,320 the traffic from the units in Pursuit 339 00:16:05,449 --> 00:16:03,300 uh 340 00:16:09,050 --> 00:16:05,459 at this time he was trying to get him to 341 00:16:11,870 --> 00:16:09,060 uh I heard his traffic uh I think it was 342 00:16:13,490 --> 00:16:11,880 a Chippewa a police barracks or Chippewa 343 00:16:17,210 --> 00:16:13,500 State Police variants 344 00:16:19,670 --> 00:16:17,220 that he was trying to get on the uh 345 00:16:22,189 --> 00:16:19,680 road that someone might take over this 346 00:16:24,590 --> 00:16:22,199 Pursuit which I was advised 347 00:16:27,670 --> 00:16:24,600 after reaching at this point and getting 348 00:16:30,470 --> 00:16:27,680 into the Pennsylvania line that uh 349 00:16:33,410 --> 00:16:30,480 uh as soon as we could get a vehicle or 350 00:16:35,810 --> 00:16:33,420 someone to observe it in pursuit of it 351 00:16:38,689 --> 00:16:35,820 that we should break off Pursuit and 352 00:16:41,350 --> 00:16:38,699 return to our own bail Ricks that's 353 00:16:43,910 --> 00:16:41,360 pretty hard to do wasn't it 354 00:16:47,569 --> 00:16:43,920 after changing it up so far and then 355 00:16:49,910 --> 00:16:47,579 they're letting go so it uh it didn't 356 00:16:52,370 --> 00:16:49,920 seem to mind uh 357 00:16:54,889 --> 00:16:52,380 uh how many cars now we're following 358 00:16:57,650 --> 00:16:54,899 this object this is two of us this is my 359 00:16:59,329 --> 00:16:57,660 South and uh where Wayne Houston is 360 00:17:00,710 --> 00:16:59,339 behind us yes 361 00:17:09,289 --> 00:17:00,720 uh 362 00:17:12,770 --> 00:17:09,299 there's a massive Bridges or roads and 363 00:17:14,809 --> 00:17:12,780 cutoffs he was trying to directly Wing 364 00:17:17,569 --> 00:17:14,819 through the routes as to which direction 365 00:17:19,970 --> 00:17:17,579 we were trying to guess it would go and 366 00:17:21,710 --> 00:17:19,980 he told me which route we were going to 367 00:17:24,590 --> 00:17:21,720 take he was steering me tell me take 368 00:17:26,630 --> 00:17:24,600 this ramp so this way go that way this 369 00:17:28,490 --> 00:17:26,640 was all a very high speed I was 370 00:17:29,990 --> 00:17:28,500 depending on his directions to be 371 00:17:32,750 --> 00:17:30,000 accurate 372 00:17:35,450 --> 00:17:32,760 uh as a matter of fact part of what 373 00:17:38,630 --> 00:17:35,460 we've done was not uh not very skillful 374 00:17:40,850 --> 00:17:38,640 I I was that we didn't use any caution 375 00:17:43,850 --> 00:17:40,860 at all 376 00:17:45,110 --> 00:17:43,860 in other words you were Reckless that's 377 00:17:46,789 --> 00:17:45,120 where we were 378 00:17:50,630 --> 00:17:46,799 um 379 00:17:52,909 --> 00:17:50,640 the thing that I think uh corn was there 380 00:17:54,710 --> 00:17:52,919 at Rochester now I think this is what 381 00:17:58,310 --> 00:17:54,720 happened that uh 382 00:18:00,770 --> 00:17:58,320 well it actually it shocked me and I 383 00:18:03,049 --> 00:18:00,780 couldn't uh I didn't see anything I 384 00:18:04,630 --> 00:18:03,059 Wayne started a transmission he did not 385 00:18:08,750 --> 00:18:04,640 finish that 386 00:18:10,130 --> 00:18:08,760 the vehicle uh when we were training 387 00:18:12,470 --> 00:18:10,140 through all this 388 00:18:14,650 --> 00:18:12,480 spider web of whatever we were going 389 00:18:17,810 --> 00:18:14,660 through 390 00:18:19,850 --> 00:18:17,820 we figured at this point we had lost it 391 00:18:21,169 --> 00:18:19,860 there would be no no way that we could 392 00:18:24,529 --> 00:18:21,179 pick it up 393 00:18:26,630 --> 00:18:24,539 uh had it changed directions the vehicle 394 00:18:28,570 --> 00:18:26,640 lost altitude 395 00:18:31,490 --> 00:18:28,580 and was hovering right over the highway 396 00:18:34,070 --> 00:18:31,500 and he waited on us 397 00:18:35,990 --> 00:18:34,080 what kind of was it a low altitude at 398 00:18:36,909 --> 00:18:36,000 that time I'd say it about a thousand 399 00:18:40,850 --> 00:18:36,919 feet 400 00:18:42,049 --> 00:18:40,860 just waiting for it yes sir 401 00:18:44,750 --> 00:18:42,059 uh 402 00:18:48,770 --> 00:18:44,760 when the two Cruisers um Wayne and 403 00:18:52,130 --> 00:18:48,780 myself got even with it it's a 404 00:18:55,310 --> 00:18:52,140 started moving again went right back to 405 00:18:58,210 --> 00:18:55,320 the same speed again and right between 406 00:19:02,570 --> 00:18:58,220 probably 103 headsets 407 00:19:04,789 --> 00:19:02,580 know your top speed uh evidently but I 408 00:19:08,150 --> 00:19:04,799 don't know if I had if I had driven 409 00:19:10,190 --> 00:19:08,160 slower it would have gone slower or 410 00:19:12,650 --> 00:19:10,200 of what it was 411 00:19:15,710 --> 00:19:12,660 I was actually all drawing you into a 412 00:19:24,850 --> 00:19:15,720 pretty pretty much of a big smash-up 413 00:19:29,870 --> 00:19:27,230 I found out later is that Pennsylvania 414 00:19:33,110 --> 00:19:29,880 yes sir this is Rochester Pennsylvania 415 00:19:36,529 --> 00:19:33,120 then we went to heart as a freedom I 416 00:19:38,210 --> 00:19:36,539 found out later like I said I don't know 417 00:19:40,070 --> 00:19:38,220 it up in that area did you ever sound 418 00:19:42,289 --> 00:19:40,080 going here and with everything going yes 419 00:19:45,230 --> 00:19:42,299 sir we did did you meet all that noise 420 00:19:47,810 --> 00:19:45,240 uh only at intersections otherwise uh 421 00:19:51,169 --> 00:19:47,820 you know I didn't use it at all I uh 422 00:19:53,930 --> 00:19:51,179 there was no no reason to raise a lot of 423 00:19:55,549 --> 00:19:53,940 Hell or to scare everybody to death 424 00:19:57,650 --> 00:19:55,559 uh what about your life did you ever 425 00:19:59,510 --> 00:19:57,660 like going yes I did have my red light 426 00:20:00,950 --> 00:19:59,520 going for the purpose of maybe someone 427 00:20:03,110 --> 00:20:00,960 going to work that early in the morning 428 00:20:05,270 --> 00:20:03,120 or something and I had forgotten at this 429 00:20:07,430 --> 00:20:05,280 time it was Sunday morning uh 430 00:20:09,770 --> 00:20:07,440 uh so that no one backed out of a 431 00:20:12,049 --> 00:20:09,780 driveway into the church 432 00:20:14,029 --> 00:20:12,059 and maybe I should have some more 433 00:20:16,730 --> 00:20:14,039 um 434 00:20:19,250 --> 00:20:16,740 as we were mining through freedom and 435 00:20:22,730 --> 00:20:19,260 stuff and there was some roads to the 436 00:20:26,930 --> 00:20:22,740 road I uh I was getting real low on fuel 437 00:20:31,970 --> 00:20:26,940 they came into Conway as we were going 438 00:20:34,310 --> 00:20:31,980 through Conway uh towards Pittsburgh 439 00:20:36,890 --> 00:20:34,320 there was this other police vehicle 440 00:20:40,490 --> 00:20:36,900 sitting there 441 00:20:45,169 --> 00:20:40,500 we turned real quick and locked them up 442 00:20:49,669 --> 00:20:47,390 we informed the officer of what we were 443 00:20:52,250 --> 00:20:49,679 doing he informed us that he had been 444 00:20:55,730 --> 00:20:52,260 observing the same object 445 00:20:58,190 --> 00:20:55,740 but that he wasn't going to say anything 446 00:21:00,650 --> 00:20:58,200 about it since he was by himself he was 447 00:21:03,830 --> 00:21:00,660 just watching it he got on the radio 448 00:21:07,610 --> 00:21:03,840 right away he called his station 449 00:21:09,310 --> 00:21:07,620 they in turn those contact do you 450 00:21:17,390 --> 00:21:09,320 remember his name 451 00:21:23,150 --> 00:21:20,630 he radioed them and his vehicle at this 452 00:21:26,750 --> 00:21:23,160 time uh 453 00:21:27,950 --> 00:21:26,760 it kind of hovered or hesitated it moved 454 00:21:32,990 --> 00:21:27,960 very slow 455 00:21:34,789 --> 00:21:33,000 uh so it monitored our traffic or if it 456 00:21:36,230 --> 00:21:34,799 was monitoring our traffic or whatever 457 00:21:38,810 --> 00:21:36,240 it was doing 458 00:21:40,789 --> 00:21:38,820 when they started talking about the 459 00:21:43,850 --> 00:21:40,799 possibility of 460 00:21:46,010 --> 00:21:43,860 Jets being scrambled to maybe possibly 461 00:21:48,649 --> 00:21:46,020 intercepted or what was this talk at 462 00:21:51,890 --> 00:21:48,659 this was in Conway Pennsylvania on the 463 00:21:54,830 --> 00:21:51,900 radio on their police radio yes sure uh 464 00:21:56,930 --> 00:21:54,840 what happened at that time well we 465 00:21:59,210 --> 00:21:56,940 thought that they had scrambled some 466 00:22:00,649 --> 00:21:59,220 fighters to try to intercept it upon 467 00:22:03,590 --> 00:22:00,659 this 468 00:22:05,350 --> 00:22:03,600 the vehicle then started a vertical 469 00:22:08,390 --> 00:22:05,360 flight 470 00:22:12,230 --> 00:22:08,400 at the 471 00:22:14,930 --> 00:22:12,240 ship or whatever it was remained uh what 472 00:22:18,590 --> 00:22:14,940 would appear to me to be perfectly level 473 00:22:23,169 --> 00:22:18,600 and its position and if that is what you 474 00:22:25,970 --> 00:22:23,179 mean attitude is uh level and didn't uh 475 00:22:28,250 --> 00:22:25,980 like a plane would have to change its 476 00:22:30,649 --> 00:22:28,260 angle and climb this thing appeared to 477 00:22:32,810 --> 00:22:30,659 me to be level at this time and the 478 00:22:36,649 --> 00:22:32,820 flight was completely vertical 479 00:22:39,590 --> 00:22:36,659 it's altitude gain was I couldn't I 480 00:22:41,750 --> 00:22:39,600 wouldn't even Venture gases to the speed 481 00:22:43,010 --> 00:22:41,760 on him at this distance were you looking 482 00:22:44,630 --> 00:22:43,020 through your windshield of this thing or 483 00:22:47,830 --> 00:22:44,640 outside of the car oh so the four of us 484 00:22:55,090 --> 00:22:50,390 into the sky at the point at it right 485 00:23:00,169 --> 00:22:57,770 point where you would imagine it to be I 486 00:23:02,870 --> 00:23:00,179 would say that at this time it was and 487 00:23:05,149 --> 00:23:02,880 it was just clear of this uh of the 488 00:23:07,430 --> 00:23:05,159 rooftops 489 00:23:09,710 --> 00:23:07,440 who was the television antenna there I 490 00:23:12,289 --> 00:23:09,720 would say was a 10 foot mass pole it was 491 00:23:15,289 --> 00:23:12,299 just about where the antenna Parts be 492 00:23:18,130 --> 00:23:15,299 looks around here around 25 degrees yes 493 00:23:22,010 --> 00:23:18,140 sir at this point 494 00:23:25,010 --> 00:23:22,020 uh the vehicle at this position would 495 00:23:26,830 --> 00:23:25,020 tend to the north side of the moon 496 00:23:30,409 --> 00:23:26,840 a uh 497 00:23:35,390 --> 00:23:30,419 moon was almost due east there was 498 00:23:38,330 --> 00:23:35,400 another bright object in the sky 499 00:23:39,950 --> 00:23:38,340 just out from the Moon on what side the 500 00:23:41,590 --> 00:23:39,960 writer left now it was on the south side 501 00:23:43,970 --> 00:23:41,600 of which would have been the right place 502 00:23:45,169 --> 00:23:43,980 I don't know what it was but it was 503 00:23:49,190 --> 00:23:45,179 Pride 504 00:23:51,230 --> 00:23:49,200 uh it wasn't a very big object but it 505 00:23:52,549 --> 00:23:51,240 was a fight object why do you say it 506 00:23:55,190 --> 00:23:52,559 wasn't a big object were you comparing 507 00:23:57,230 --> 00:23:55,200 it to something well yes so we could 508 00:23:59,270 --> 00:23:57,240 bring it to comparing it to the this 509 00:24:01,549 --> 00:23:59,280 vehicle or whatever it was that was 510 00:24:03,529 --> 00:24:01,559 closer this way to us that the one you 511 00:24:06,710 --> 00:24:03,539 had been watching all the time yes sir 512 00:24:09,649 --> 00:24:06,720 uh to describe it if you look at it it 513 00:24:14,029 --> 00:24:09,659 would have looked like a 514 00:24:18,590 --> 00:24:17,090 a dime if you looked at one and a 515 00:24:20,690 --> 00:24:18,600 quarter if you looked at the other one 516 00:24:22,130 --> 00:24:20,700 that's something to this effect I mean 517 00:24:23,630 --> 00:24:22,140 it wouldn't actually be this big but 518 00:24:25,430 --> 00:24:23,640 this is uh yeah I see what you're 519 00:24:27,950 --> 00:24:25,440 talking about the comparative sizes 520 00:24:30,649 --> 00:24:27,960 this vehicle then never changed 521 00:24:33,470 --> 00:24:30,659 directions except for straight up we we 522 00:24:37,430 --> 00:24:33,480 observed this uh we observed this 523 00:24:41,330 --> 00:24:37,440 Cruiser uh this uh 524 00:24:43,490 --> 00:24:41,340 Airline this passenger plane a large jet 525 00:24:46,850 --> 00:24:43,500 airliner 526 00:24:48,289 --> 00:24:46,860 taking off from Pittsburgh I this 527 00:24:50,710 --> 00:24:48,299 Saturday is where it came from and 528 00:24:55,010 --> 00:24:50,720 watched this plane going for altitude 529 00:24:57,110 --> 00:24:55,020 side directly beneath this object 530 00:24:59,270 --> 00:24:57,120 and make no no change of Direction just 531 00:25:01,549 --> 00:24:59,280 went right by right by it we went right 532 00:25:03,529 --> 00:25:01,559 by it and it didn't seem it seemed as 533 00:25:06,770 --> 00:25:03,539 though the plane was flying in a 534 00:25:09,529 --> 00:25:06,780 distinct uh line or maybe going for a 535 00:25:11,210 --> 00:25:09,539 compass heading I have not the faintest 536 00:25:14,029 --> 00:25:11,220 idea of 537 00:25:16,250 --> 00:25:14,039 but in in in his actions it did not 538 00:25:18,470 --> 00:25:16,260 appear to uh try any pursuit or anything 539 00:25:21,350 --> 00:25:18,480 like that it didn't uh didn't act as 540 00:25:25,130 --> 00:25:21,360 though it had seen or anything 541 00:25:26,769 --> 00:25:25,140 the object so it was closer to you at 542 00:25:29,510 --> 00:25:26,779 that time was the plane closer to you 543 00:25:31,490 --> 00:25:29,520 the plane was closer to me it was very 544 00:25:35,029 --> 00:25:31,500 large and very distinct it was real 545 00:25:38,990 --> 00:25:37,190 um when I say A flew underneath to the 546 00:25:42,289 --> 00:25:39,000 directly underneath it I mean that it 547 00:25:44,930 --> 00:25:42,299 was below just object in elevation right 548 00:25:50,029 --> 00:25:44,940 in elevation you could look 549 00:25:51,590 --> 00:25:50,039 or the play playing as the objects right 550 00:25:53,810 --> 00:25:51,600 which 551 00:25:57,710 --> 00:25:53,820 from then the only fight that this thing 552 00:26:00,350 --> 00:25:57,720 made seem to be straight up I saw no 553 00:26:02,990 --> 00:26:00,360 change in directions uh at this time 554 00:26:04,970 --> 00:26:03,000 there was radio traffic on Conway it 555 00:26:07,850 --> 00:26:04,980 constantly go up or it is top anytime 556 00:26:10,549 --> 00:26:07,860 all right it went up and made the first 557 00:26:14,930 --> 00:26:10,559 time uh I couldn't say what its full 558 00:26:21,710 --> 00:26:14,940 game was uh it hesitated or paused or 559 00:26:28,190 --> 00:26:25,430 uh at this time as I said we were still 560 00:26:32,090 --> 00:26:28,200 observing it to four officers uh it was 561 00:26:33,529 --> 00:26:32,100 myself uh Frank from Conway also Wayne 562 00:26:41,269 --> 00:26:33,539 from 563 00:26:43,010 --> 00:26:41,279 we were watching it they informed us to 564 00:26:46,070 --> 00:26:43,020 call a number in Pittsburgh right away 565 00:26:51,649 --> 00:26:46,080 that they want some information 566 00:26:53,690 --> 00:26:51,659 um we made this call we followed the car 567 00:26:56,810 --> 00:26:53,700 he showed us where to go 568 00:26:59,990 --> 00:26:56,820 we went in we made the call I 569 00:27:02,510 --> 00:27:00,000 tried to give him a basic idea of what 570 00:27:04,190 --> 00:27:02,520 we had followed or seen or as best we 571 00:27:06,169 --> 00:27:04,200 could describe it by this time the 572 00:27:08,269 --> 00:27:06,179 object had already been disappeared no 573 00:27:10,310 --> 00:27:08,279 sir well I don't know that it had 574 00:27:12,649 --> 00:27:10,320 disappeared we were we could still see 575 00:27:14,930 --> 00:27:12,659 it when we it was moving that slowly yes 576 00:27:16,130 --> 00:27:14,940 sir we could still see it when we how 577 00:27:18,230 --> 00:27:16,140 many minutes did it take from the time 578 00:27:20,029 --> 00:27:18,240 that you actually got out of the car and 579 00:27:21,289 --> 00:27:20,039 actually started to watch it at the time 580 00:27:23,269 --> 00:27:21,299 to the time you drove away to make his 581 00:27:25,789 --> 00:27:23,279 telephone call 582 00:27:28,310 --> 00:27:25,799 I'd say the four of us together I would 583 00:27:32,690 --> 00:27:28,320 have to check it I would say it was we 584 00:27:35,330 --> 00:27:32,700 observed this vehicle at this point uh 585 00:27:37,549 --> 00:27:35,340 for better than 20 minutes now from the 586 00:27:38,810 --> 00:27:37,559 time it started to rise to the time that 587 00:27:40,070 --> 00:27:38,820 you actually went away from it how long 588 00:27:42,049 --> 00:27:40,080 was that 589 00:27:45,230 --> 00:27:42,059 I would say uh 590 00:27:47,029 --> 00:27:45,240 about 10 minutes about 10 minutes yes 591 00:27:49,970 --> 00:27:47,039 sir 592 00:27:52,850 --> 00:27:49,980 okay about 10 minutes I I like I said 593 00:27:54,890 --> 00:27:52,860 there was a definite rise a definite 594 00:27:56,450 --> 00:27:54,900 rise it was a debt it wasn't a real real 595 00:27:59,690 --> 00:27:56,460 slow thing but you could actually make 596 00:28:02,870 --> 00:27:59,700 it you could see the definite rise the 597 00:28:04,090 --> 00:28:02,880 only thing that changed was the light as 598 00:28:07,190 --> 00:28:04,100 this 599 00:28:11,090 --> 00:28:07,200 vehicle powered itself or done whatever 600 00:28:14,029 --> 00:28:11,100 it done I don't know just like was was 601 00:28:16,310 --> 00:28:14,039 so distinct and that was so bright that 602 00:28:19,250 --> 00:28:16,320 it that it could still be seen in broad 603 00:28:21,470 --> 00:28:19,260 daylight it was very very never looked 604 00:28:24,830 --> 00:28:21,480 black against the uh the lightning sky 605 00:28:26,350 --> 00:28:24,840 in the east no sir the halo around it 606 00:28:28,850 --> 00:28:26,360 looked to have a 607 00:28:31,430 --> 00:28:28,860 definite Rim that might be considered to 608 00:28:35,450 --> 00:28:31,440 be gray or something to this effect but 609 00:28:37,730 --> 00:28:35,460 the object itself was never silhouetted 610 00:28:40,669 --> 00:28:37,740 uh never became like a dark object 611 00:28:43,310 --> 00:28:40,679 against a light sky no sir no sir just 612 00:28:46,610 --> 00:28:43,320 all we could see was the 613 00:28:47,690 --> 00:28:46,620 bottom of whatever this craft or 614 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:47,700 whatever you want to call it

and 624 00:29:14,750 --> 00:29:12,659 Frank had to show us where to go do you 625 00:29:17,630 --> 00:29:14,760 know who you talked to I have a famous 626 00:29:19,310 --> 00:29:17,640 idea I just know that he's a are 627 00:29:22,610 --> 00:29:19,320 supposed to be one of the air officers 628 00:29:25,010 --> 00:29:22,620 or I don't know if he's with Aeronautics 629 00:29:26,289 --> 00:29:25,020 I don't I I don't have a famous idea I 630 00:29:28,789 --> 00:29:26,299 know that 631 00:29:31,070 --> 00:29:28,799 we went in the police department and 632 00:29:33,049 --> 00:29:31,080 Frank dialed this number that was left 633 00:29:36,230 --> 00:29:33,059 for him to call I know that the last 634 00:29:38,389 --> 00:29:36,240 number was uh in the 400s or four zeros 635 00:29:39,169 --> 00:29:38,399 or something 636 00:29:41,510 --> 00:29:39,179 um 637 00:29:43,810 --> 00:29:41,520 I explained it to the guy he says I'll 638 00:29:46,730 --> 00:29:43,820 forward this to Wright Patterson 639 00:29:48,409 --> 00:29:46,740 at the time we thought there was radar 640 00:29:50,090 --> 00:29:48,419 contact I 641 00:29:52,310 --> 00:29:50,100 you thought for sure there must have 642 00:29:54,470 --> 00:29:52,320 been from Pittsburgh huh yes sir I I 643 00:29:58,490 --> 00:29:54,480 thought there was evidently I was misled 644 00:29:59,870 --> 00:29:58,500 uh Dale uh I think uh this part right 645 00:30:01,850 --> 00:29:59,880 here and we've had enough of that part 646 00:30:04,250 --> 00:30:01,860 right there I I'm trying to try to keep 647 00:30:05,930 --> 00:30:04,260 you in your time limit here now what 648 00:30:08,389 --> 00:30:05,940 we're going to do now is there anything 649 00:30:10,549 --> 00:30:08,399 significant from this point on 650 00:30:13,370 --> 00:30:10,559 your setting was ended wasn't it at that 651 00:30:14,870 --> 00:30:13,380 time now let's go backwards now and go 652 00:30:18,230 --> 00:30:14,880 back to the time when you first saw the 653 00:30:19,850 --> 00:30:18,240 object okay okay will you describe uh 654 00:30:23,029 --> 00:30:19,860 would you describe what you uh the the 655 00:30:26,930 --> 00:30:23,039 light underneath it and what your idea 656 00:30:30,230 --> 00:30:26,940 was about about that light 657 00:30:33,169 --> 00:30:30,240 well are you able to look at it no sir 658 00:30:36,549 --> 00:30:33,179 not directly you when when you when you 659 00:30:38,810 --> 00:30:36,559 when it was first observed uh 660 00:30:42,649 --> 00:30:38,820 momentary I may have been looking 661 00:30:45,830 --> 00:30:42,659 directly at it it was very uh purified 662 00:30:48,529 --> 00:30:45,840 or a blue light like a mercury vapor 663 00:30:52,190 --> 00:30:48,539 light it was uh 664 00:30:54,590 --> 00:30:52,200 when this thing first started up this 665 00:30:56,450 --> 00:30:54,600 home that we could hear in the area 666 00:30:59,810 --> 00:30:56,460 um if it was from this 667 00:31:02,810 --> 00:30:59,820 when it increased as it went up to this 668 00:31:06,649 --> 00:31:02,820 50 or 100 feet or whatever it was or 669 00:31:09,289 --> 00:31:06,659 whatever the actual height was we primed 670 00:31:11,750 --> 00:31:09,299 the sin increased and from that point 671 00:31:14,450 --> 00:31:11,760 as the brightness increase the hum 672 00:31:16,430 --> 00:31:14,460 increase and I didn't increase it just 673 00:31:18,590 --> 00:31:16,440 change change to a higher or lower pitch 674 00:31:21,529 --> 00:31:18,600 you know it was a higher I guess you'd 675 00:31:24,289 --> 00:31:21,539 call it it was a 676 00:31:26,149 --> 00:31:24,299 increase like uh 677 00:31:28,070 --> 00:31:26,159 I've heard it sounds similar to it 678 00:31:29,210 --> 00:31:28,080 before but I I can't remember what it 679 00:31:32,149 --> 00:31:29,220 was it 680 00:31:37,010 --> 00:31:32,159 and Scottish sound like was there a 681 00:31:39,730 --> 00:31:37,020 vibration like a uh hmm no it was not a 682 00:31:43,370 --> 00:31:39,740 pulsating uh thing this was to stay 683 00:31:46,070 --> 00:31:43,380 definitely a a a study thing there was 684 00:31:47,210 --> 00:31:46,080 no weird noise there's no beep beeps or 685 00:31:53,750 --> 00:31:47,220 uh 686 00:31:56,029 --> 00:31:53,760 from that point on until after the 687 00:31:57,470 --> 00:31:56,039 vehicle moved away from us the Sun the 688 00:31:59,330 --> 00:31:57,480 only thing that you could observe that 689 00:32:02,570 --> 00:31:59,340 it was very large 690 00:32:04,490 --> 00:32:02,580 uh seem to be covering a great deal of 691 00:32:06,289 --> 00:32:04,500 the highway well how about uh when you 692 00:32:08,870 --> 00:32:06,299 put your hands out and showed me an 693 00:32:11,029 --> 00:32:08,880 outstretched uh I asked you uh to 694 00:32:13,070 --> 00:32:11,039 actually get the distance between all 695 00:32:15,110 --> 00:32:13,080 stretched hands and ask you how far 696 00:32:16,669 --> 00:32:15,120 apart were they how how far apart would 697 00:32:19,190 --> 00:32:16,679 you put your hands again 698 00:32:21,110 --> 00:32:19,200 could you show me right now some cover 699 00:32:22,549 --> 00:32:21,120 edge to edge as you watch the object 700 00:32:24,470 --> 00:32:22,559 just right over the top of your horse as 701 00:32:28,070 --> 00:32:24,480 it was when it started over that's right 702 00:32:30,169 --> 00:32:28,080 before it started up with yeah I would 703 00:32:33,649 --> 00:32:30,179 all right 704 00:32:35,690 --> 00:32:33,659 the race between the two the one taller 705 00:32:38,210 --> 00:32:35,700 tree and a short one on the bottom to 706 00:32:39,889 --> 00:32:38,220 hold one hand to look at the tree the 707 00:32:42,169 --> 00:32:39,899 tree on the lower side where this 708 00:32:43,610 --> 00:32:42,179 tireless Affair was that I showed you 709 00:32:45,169 --> 00:32:43,620 last night 710 00:32:48,049 --> 00:32:45,179 and there would have been about like 711 00:32:50,029 --> 00:32:48,059 that which the officer here is is 712 00:32:53,570 --> 00:32:50,039 holding his hands apart at least four 713 00:32:56,029 --> 00:32:53,580 and a half feet yes sure it uh and now 714 00:32:59,750 --> 00:32:56,039 that would be if you 715 00:33:02,149 --> 00:32:59,760 I would judge it to be between that tree 716 00:33:04,310 --> 00:33:02,159 and to give it any lines that's the 717 00:33:08,149 --> 00:33:04,320 lightness making it look larger I would 718 00:33:10,190 --> 00:33:08,159 say it was probably close to 50 feet 719 00:33:12,529 --> 00:33:10,200 between the two trees 720 00:33:13,850 --> 00:33:12,539 what was the estimated diameter of the 721 00:33:18,590 --> 00:33:13,860 object then 722 00:33:21,889 --> 00:33:18,600 and the diameter I I estimated that if I 723 00:33:23,450 --> 00:33:21,899 was playing it safe I say from 35 to 45 724 00:33:25,730 --> 00:33:23,460 or 50 feet 725 00:33:28,490 --> 00:33:25,740 depending on how thick that light is 726 00:33:31,009 --> 00:33:28,500 around the Whatever It Is Well let's 727 00:33:32,450 --> 00:33:31,019 forget just what you can see what about 728 00:33:34,730 --> 00:33:32,460 the depth of it 729 00:33:36,889 --> 00:33:34,740 the deaths of it at this point you 730 00:33:40,190 --> 00:33:36,899 couldn't determined until it started 731 00:33:45,649 --> 00:33:40,200 this slant move and when it did 732 00:33:47,690 --> 00:33:45,659 so the thickness of the vehicle at my me 733 00:33:49,669 --> 00:33:47,700 estimating the sickness of it I would 734 00:33:53,029 --> 00:33:49,679 say was at least 735 00:33:55,070 --> 00:33:53,039 18 feet thick I don't know how much was 736 00:33:59,570 --> 00:33:55,080 in that light or how deep that light was 737 00:34:01,370 --> 00:33:59,580 because I don't know what would be 738 00:34:03,289 --> 00:34:01,380 dark enough that you could look through 739 00:34:04,789 --> 00:34:03,299 well let's compare it as long as you're 740 00:34:06,230 --> 00:34:04,799 talking about light let's forget about 741 00:34:07,310 --> 00:34:06,240 you couldn't see anything through the 742 00:34:10,010 --> 00:34:07,320 light so let's use the light as a 743 00:34:12,470 --> 00:34:10,020 compare as your outer edge okay now if 744 00:34:14,810 --> 00:34:12,480 your outer edge is 40 to 50 feet 745 00:34:16,250 --> 00:34:14,820 uh would you still say that the debt 746 00:34:19,369 --> 00:34:16,260 from the from the bottom of the light to 747 00:34:22,909 --> 00:34:19,379 the top of the rounded area uh was uh 18 748 00:34:24,950 --> 00:34:22,919 feet that much I would say that no no no 749 00:34:28,070 --> 00:34:24,960 because I would say that that's almost 750 00:34:32,270 --> 00:34:28,080 halfway I I would say that um 751 00:34:35,149 --> 00:34:32,280 that uh the top from uh I was when I say 752 00:34:36,790 --> 00:34:35,159 18 to 24 feet I am figuring that there 753 00:34:41,570 --> 00:34:36,800 is as much 754 00:34:42,649 --> 00:34:41,580 below midship as there is above it oh I 755 00:34:44,570 --> 00:34:42,659 see that in other words you talk about 756 00:34:47,629 --> 00:34:44,580 nine to twelve feet above it then only 757 00:34:49,250 --> 00:34:47,639 on one side yes sir okay see that's all 758 00:34:51,649 --> 00:34:49,260 you could see wasn't it yes you could 759 00:34:53,810 --> 00:34:51,659 only see uh something that was not all 760 00:34:56,329 --> 00:34:53,820 lit up just at the very top over the top 761 00:34:59,390 --> 00:34:56,339 part of the area now you also showed my 762 00:35:01,790 --> 00:34:59,400 picture here uh in making the object 763 00:35:03,410 --> 00:35:01,800 that there was a sort of a uh after the 764 00:35:06,050 --> 00:35:03,420 rumors whatever it might have been there 765 00:35:08,750 --> 00:35:06,060 was a sort of an off not an offset but 766 00:35:10,849 --> 00:35:08,760 it sort of uh came in at like a step yes 767 00:35:12,770 --> 00:35:10,859 it stepped Inward and then it rose again 768 00:35:17,990 --> 00:35:12,780 and rounded at the top is that right it 769 00:35:22,190 --> 00:35:18,000 was yet uh and at this point when it 770 00:35:25,310 --> 00:35:22,200 would angle towards us the uh disc 771 00:35:28,190 --> 00:35:25,320 wasn't turned too much like this this is 772 00:35:29,930 --> 00:35:28,200 you couldn't see a full top view if it 773 00:35:32,930 --> 00:35:29,940 was stepped in you couldn't see this 774 00:35:35,150 --> 00:35:32,940 part of the vehicle but you could make 775 00:35:39,230 --> 00:35:35,160 out this uh 776 00:35:41,930 --> 00:35:39,240 Master fair that was coming out of it if 777 00:35:45,790 --> 00:35:41,940 you've ever looked down at the top we 778 00:35:49,010 --> 00:35:45,800 couldn't see anything but this profile 779 00:35:51,170 --> 00:35:49,020 the silhouette of the one side is the 780 00:35:54,010 --> 00:35:51,180 angle because the Turning of the ship 781 00:35:57,770 --> 00:35:54,020 wasn't wasn't radical at all 782 00:35:59,990 --> 00:35:57,780 it was not radical enough to to view 783 00:36:02,530 --> 00:36:00,000 More Than This One partial silhouette 784 00:36:05,990 --> 00:36:02,540 which I would say was uh 785 00:36:08,390 --> 00:36:06,000 maybe a little less than half on it 786 00:36:11,030 --> 00:36:08,400 because you could make out from this 787 00:36:13,730 --> 00:36:11,040 Mass to a fair or whatever this 788 00:36:17,030 --> 00:36:13,740 projection or whatever purpose of serve 789 00:36:19,730 --> 00:36:17,040 I I don't have a famous idea uh I 790 00:36:21,290 --> 00:36:19,740 thought it to be an antennae or I don't 791 00:36:23,930 --> 00:36:21,300 know why I was the first thing come to 792 00:36:27,109 --> 00:36:23,940 my mind after 793 00:36:29,270 --> 00:36:27,119 I had observed long enough well 794 00:36:32,270 --> 00:36:29,280 something picking up would you probably 795 00:36:33,950 --> 00:36:32,280 mean an antenna yes sure and so I don't 796 00:36:36,710 --> 00:36:33,960 know how to make me say antenna I just 797 00:36:39,650 --> 00:36:36,720 that was the thing that hit my mind uh 798 00:36:43,190 --> 00:36:39,660 it was very clear this this one uh 799 00:36:46,790 --> 00:36:43,200 portion of this uh this thing at least 800 00:36:48,950 --> 00:36:46,800 this much of the angle as it felted uh 801 00:36:50,690 --> 00:36:48,960 was clear now that the part was clear 802 00:36:53,030 --> 00:36:50,700 yeah it was unlighted is that right 803 00:36:56,450 --> 00:36:53,040 there was uh it was not illuminated the 804 00:37:00,290 --> 00:36:56,460 only glare on the I don't know if the 805 00:37:01,910 --> 00:37:00,300 vehicle had angled a little more uh I 806 00:37:04,250 --> 00:37:01,920 don't believe the rest of it to have 807 00:37:05,270 --> 00:37:04,260 been lighted paint but at the angle that 808 00:37:08,089 --> 00:37:05,280 it was 809 00:37:10,609 --> 00:37:08,099 and illumination from this Outer Rim 810 00:37:11,690 --> 00:37:10,619 would have had our view obstructed of 811 00:37:14,030 --> 00:37:11,700 any 812 00:37:16,970 --> 00:37:14,040 further determination uh would have 813 00:37:21,190 --> 00:37:16,980 taken a point on a raise or something 814 00:37:23,690 --> 00:37:21,200 where we might have been up higher uh 815 00:37:25,430 --> 00:37:23,700 right or if we'd have been no just 816 00:37:28,130 --> 00:37:25,440 raised area did you see it silhouetted 817 00:37:29,870 --> 00:37:28,140 against the sky yes sir and did it uh 818 00:37:32,510 --> 00:37:29,880 What uh what would it appear to be made 819 00:37:36,410 --> 00:37:32,520 of what color was it uh 820 00:37:40,370 --> 00:37:36,420 it appeared to me to be a like a an 821 00:37:45,349 --> 00:37:40,380 aluminum or an alloy uh not of a real 822 00:37:46,790 --> 00:37:45,359 polished uh it was shiny but not when I 823 00:37:50,630 --> 00:37:46,800 say 824 00:37:55,130 --> 00:37:50,640 I said I don't mean like Chrome I don't 825 00:37:59,810 --> 00:37:55,140 mean uh this shiny I mean like 826 00:38:05,089 --> 00:38:02,510 of an aluminum that is that hasn't been 827 00:38:06,890 --> 00:38:05,099 polished ah I mean a lot of the pro a 828 00:38:08,510 --> 00:38:06,900 little bit right well it used to be 829 00:38:11,329 --> 00:38:08,520 shiny but it's not so shiny now this is 830 00:38:14,630 --> 00:38:11,339 too big but it it didn't appear to be uh 831 00:38:17,690 --> 00:38:14,640 bright like a silver dollar there was no 832 00:38:21,890 --> 00:38:17,700 Detail no holes no no portholes no no 833 00:38:24,230 --> 00:38:21,900 openings visible to either myself or or 834 00:38:26,630 --> 00:38:24,240 to the other officers that anyone could 835 00:38:29,630 --> 00:38:26,640 make out there was no 836 00:38:31,849 --> 00:38:29,640 uh doorways or 837 00:38:33,829 --> 00:38:31,859 anything now this question here you 838 00:38:36,050 --> 00:38:33,839 talked about when the object came over 839 00:38:37,490 --> 00:38:36,060 you it was it an attitude that was 840 00:38:39,530 --> 00:38:37,500 practically level with the ground in 841 00:38:41,510 --> 00:38:39,540 other words horizontal then as it moved 842 00:38:44,450 --> 00:38:41,520 over to the north it slammed it didn't 843 00:38:46,609 --> 00:38:44,460 it yes sort of like a like a shovel 844 00:38:50,569 --> 00:38:46,619 would uh downward and a little bit right 845 00:38:52,250 --> 00:38:50,579 now in which uh what part was headed in 846 00:38:53,450 --> 00:38:52,260 a direction it was moving was it the 847 00:38:56,270 --> 00:38:53,460 rounded part or was it although the 848 00:38:59,870 --> 00:38:56,280 shiny area no the round is probably the 849 00:39:02,450 --> 00:38:59,880 the line every time it changed 850 00:39:04,609 --> 00:39:02,460 directions whenever it angles yeah the 851 00:39:06,710 --> 00:39:04,619 light would be following or would it be 852 00:39:08,630 --> 00:39:06,720 ahead we would be following it was 853 00:39:11,750 --> 00:39:08,640 projected from behind when you were 854 00:39:14,270 --> 00:39:11,760 following him if at an angle 855 00:39:16,150 --> 00:39:14,280 when you looked at the back end the only 856 00:39:20,089 --> 00:39:16,160 thing that you could make 857 00:39:22,790 --> 00:39:20,099 was this a circular uh it was in a 858 00:39:25,609 --> 00:39:22,800 perfect circle but it was a circle a 859 00:39:27,310 --> 00:39:25,619 the light may have distorted it some I 860 00:39:30,290 --> 00:39:27,320 could not say most 861 00:39:32,990 --> 00:39:30,300 all very bright as you followed it even 862 00:39:35,089 --> 00:39:33,000 right as I followed it did you ever in 863 00:39:36,290 --> 00:39:35,099 other words you never as you followed 864 00:39:38,930 --> 00:39:36,300 the object and it was not ahead of you 865 00:39:42,109 --> 00:39:38,940 you never actually saw this rounded area 866 00:39:44,510 --> 00:39:42,119 the the part that wasn't uh illuminated 867 00:39:47,510 --> 00:39:44,520 no so the only time we could see this 868 00:39:50,050 --> 00:39:47,520 thing uh the any part of the metallic 869 00:39:54,170 --> 00:39:50,060 thing was when it would make a maneuver 870 00:39:57,950 --> 00:39:54,180 uh when it would change its uh trim uh 871 00:40:00,230 --> 00:39:57,960 and want to move either a little to the 872 00:40:02,930 --> 00:40:00,240 South a little to the north if it want 873 00:40:06,250 --> 00:40:02,940 to move South these top 874 00:40:08,109 --> 00:40:06,260 part of this craft or whatever it was 875 00:40:17,089 --> 00:40:08,119 the 876 00:40:17,750 --> 00:40:17,099 projecting from following right right it 877 00:40:22,010 --> 00:40:17,760 um 878 00:40:25,010 --> 00:40:22,020 it never changed colors that the only 879 00:40:28,609 --> 00:40:25,020 thing it did get brighter or as soon as 880 00:40:30,470 --> 00:40:28,619 if what I would call or did State I I 881 00:40:33,670 --> 00:40:30,480 couldn't prove it that like if it 882 00:40:36,770 --> 00:40:33,680 accelerated for height or 883 00:40:39,650 --> 00:40:36,780 for controlled purpose of navigation or 884 00:40:43,510 --> 00:40:39,660 whatever it was doing at this time it 885 00:40:45,890 --> 00:40:43,520 did gain more intense in the light 886 00:40:47,270 --> 00:40:45,900 you never say smoke or any Trail or 887 00:40:49,730 --> 00:40:47,280 anything like that there was no Vapor 888 00:40:51,650 --> 00:40:49,740 Trails from it at all it was I saw news 889 00:40:53,270 --> 00:40:51,660 you would never tell it was revolving or 890 00:40:54,829 --> 00:40:53,280 anything like that no sir if there was 891 00:40:56,810 --> 00:40:54,839 anything spinning it was under the light 892 00:40:58,670 --> 00:40:56,820 that couldn't be seen would you say that 893 00:41:01,069 --> 00:40:58,680 would you say that the uh the part of 894 00:41:02,270 --> 00:41:01,079 the object which was low now describe 895 00:41:05,089 --> 00:41:02,280 this even though you talked about the 896 00:41:06,890 --> 00:41:05,099 right part This brilliant area was it 897 00:41:10,010 --> 00:41:06,900 fuzzy or blurred or was it sharpening 898 00:41:13,010 --> 00:41:10,020 outline no it was well the outer rim of 899 00:41:16,250 --> 00:41:13,020 it there was a 900 00:41:19,609 --> 00:41:16,260 probably to me at this time it did look 901 00:41:22,609 --> 00:41:19,619 as though it was on a halo effect on the 902 00:41:26,210 --> 00:41:22,619 Outer Rim the light beneath it was very 903 00:41:28,790 --> 00:41:26,220 sharp very uh it was not fuzzy when it 904 00:41:32,569 --> 00:41:28,800 was moving in front of me it was a like 905 00:41:35,990 --> 00:41:32,579 a concentrated uh very well controlled 906 00:41:39,410 --> 00:41:36,000 even flow of light was it what shape was 907 00:41:42,470 --> 00:41:39,420 that light behind it the light didn't 908 00:41:47,569 --> 00:41:42,480 come down into a full cone it came down 909 00:41:50,270 --> 00:41:47,579 it it I wouldn't estimate the exact 910 00:41:52,970 --> 00:41:50,280 length of it uh well as compared to the 911 00:41:55,970 --> 00:41:52,980 craft compared to the craft I would say 912 00:41:58,370 --> 00:41:55,980 that the light probably extended 913 00:42:01,490 --> 00:41:58,380 or appeared to me at this distance of 914 00:42:03,370 --> 00:42:01,500 the light actually curtail herself in 915 00:42:07,089 --> 00:42:03,380 midair at about 916 00:42:10,730 --> 00:42:07,099 150 feet or so like 917 00:42:13,609 --> 00:42:10,740 this brightness uh for instance when 918 00:42:15,829 --> 00:42:13,619 this light was shining clearly you could 919 00:42:19,069 --> 00:42:15,839 see through this light 920 00:42:21,530 --> 00:42:19,079 it would have taken uh 921 00:42:23,450 --> 00:42:21,540 in other words just other than the outer 922 00:42:27,470 --> 00:42:23,460 rim of the light itself 923 00:42:29,569 --> 00:42:27,480 you would have to have a smoke or 924 00:42:31,310 --> 00:42:29,579 some kind of a dust particle or 925 00:42:34,910 --> 00:42:31,320 something flowing through it so that 926 00:42:37,550 --> 00:42:34,920 maybe you could have determined a shame 927 00:42:40,730 --> 00:42:37,560 a particular shape or a beam from it 928 00:42:42,589 --> 00:42:40,740 otherwise other than the immediate goal 929 00:42:44,630 --> 00:42:42,599 from beneath it as though it's set on 930 00:42:49,250 --> 00:42:44,640 this 931 00:42:51,890 --> 00:42:50,630 in other words what you're saying is 932 00:42:54,710 --> 00:42:51,900 even though it illuminated the ground 933 00:42:56,089 --> 00:42:54,720 when it was low it there wasn't you 934 00:42:57,290 --> 00:42:56,099 could you could not see the light come 935 00:42:58,910 --> 00:42:57,300 from the object down to the ground 936 00:42:59,990 --> 00:42:58,920 because he's right through it right and 937 00:43:01,849 --> 00:43:00,000 yet it was a little late in the ground 938 00:43:03,770 --> 00:43:01,859 yes sir and then you couldn't see any 939 00:43:04,970 --> 00:43:03,780 beam or anything like that no sure it 940 00:43:07,910 --> 00:43:04,980 apparently was coming from the object 941 00:43:09,710 --> 00:43:07,920 but you couldn't tell where it started 942 00:43:11,750 --> 00:43:09,720 and where it finished mostly because you 943 00:43:13,250 --> 00:43:11,760 could look up at the object the area was 944 00:43:16,730 --> 00:43:13,260 just illuminated 945 00:43:19,550 --> 00:43:16,740 was aluminated widely uh what was the 946 00:43:22,670 --> 00:43:19,560 radius of the cars I I couldn't 947 00:43:24,710 --> 00:43:22,680 right at this point uh I I wouldn't want 948 00:43:27,050 --> 00:43:24,720 to even estimate the radius so I was 949 00:43:30,109 --> 00:43:27,060 scared to death I uh I mean I'm pregnant 950 00:43:32,329 --> 00:43:30,119 on bones about telling it I I 951 00:43:35,630 --> 00:43:32,339 was the first I didn't even know if I 952 00:43:37,010 --> 00:43:35,640 could go or not you know I I was uh I 953 00:43:39,970 --> 00:43:37,020 was real scared 954 00:43:44,089 --> 00:43:39,980 I uh did you feel the heat 955 00:43:46,309 --> 00:43:44,099 uh the only heat I did to a heat I can I 956 00:43:48,829 --> 00:43:46,319 more or less thought that this was my 957 00:43:51,710 --> 00:43:48,839 adrenaline coming up this field of fear 958 00:43:53,210 --> 00:43:51,720 and but you didn't actually think you 959 00:43:55,970 --> 00:43:53,220 felt the heat from the object I don't 960 00:43:58,849 --> 00:43:55,980 know my heart was surrounded pound my 961 00:44:02,150 --> 00:43:58,859 badge off I I know I could 962 00:44:05,750 --> 00:44:02,160 uh I know that I have this uh 963 00:44:07,309 --> 00:44:05,760 real weird feeling I could I you know 964 00:44:09,410 --> 00:44:07,319 did you know something that was feeling 965 00:44:12,170 --> 00:44:09,420 like 966 00:44:14,390 --> 00:44:12,180 he was very pale I that's about the only 967 00:44:18,050 --> 00:44:14,400 thing I'm getting caught 968 00:44:20,030 --> 00:44:18,060 no I I don't think for the first two 969 00:44:22,970 --> 00:44:20,040 minutes I don't think I'd have fun for a 970 00:44:25,190 --> 00:44:22,980 start and you stood did you stay two 971 00:44:27,710 --> 00:44:25,200 minutes before you went into the car 972 00:44:29,870 --> 00:44:27,720 I don't really know it may have been it 973 00:44:31,730 --> 00:44:29,880 was like being hypnotized that I knew I 974 00:44:35,450 --> 00:44:31,740 kept feeling that 975 00:44:38,630 --> 00:44:35,460 I wanted something between me and it I 976 00:44:42,109 --> 00:44:38,640 I don't know if if I moved if it would 977 00:44:44,270 --> 00:44:42,119 do anything to me or who wouldn't I uh 978 00:44:46,010 --> 00:44:44,280 when I made a decision 979 00:44:47,569 --> 00:44:46,020 uh 980 00:44:49,609 --> 00:44:47,579 the only thing I could think of was 981 00:44:51,410 --> 00:44:49,619 getting in the car I don't suppose they 982 00:44:53,750 --> 00:44:51,420 had any good if this thing was going 983 00:44:55,069 --> 00:44:53,760 through Us in or something that's right 984 00:44:56,210 --> 00:44:55,079 let me ask you a question are you 985 00:44:58,490 --> 00:44:56,220 talking about this business of this 986 00:45:00,470 --> 00:44:58,500 light you have the impression and you 987 00:45:02,569 --> 00:45:00,480 talked to me last night for some hours 988 00:45:04,849 --> 00:45:02,579 and you have the impression that this 989 00:45:06,890 --> 00:45:04,859 thing was sitting on its own right what 990 00:45:10,010 --> 00:45:06,900 do you mean by sitting on its own body 991 00:45:13,670 --> 00:45:10,020 well to me is 992 00:45:15,230 --> 00:45:13,680 it appeared uh it would if I was to 993 00:45:16,550 --> 00:45:15,240 describe it it would be like taking a 994 00:45:18,230 --> 00:45:16,560 really you're talking about proportion 995 00:45:20,750 --> 00:45:18,240 yes sir 996 00:45:22,910 --> 00:45:20,760 and it's like to me that I don't know 997 00:45:25,430 --> 00:45:22,920 how it does it or what it done it's like 998 00:45:27,950 --> 00:45:25,440 if you turn a real good flashlight 999 00:45:29,569 --> 00:45:27,960 upside down you turned it on and you 1000 00:45:31,910 --> 00:45:29,579 stood it right up on the beam and walked 1001 00:45:33,349 --> 00:45:31,920 off and left a light standing by itself 1002 00:45:35,569 --> 00:45:33,359 I would get you in other words it would 1003 00:45:37,609 --> 00:45:35,579 be Defying Gravity because of the light 1004 00:45:40,190 --> 00:45:37,619 that's what your feeling was 1005 00:45:45,530 --> 00:45:40,200 supposed to become noisier at this high 1006 00:45:48,410 --> 00:45:45,540 pitch or not well more noise I 1007 00:45:50,270 --> 00:45:48,420 uh the only humming I heard all the the 1008 00:45:51,589 --> 00:45:50,280 only time I heard it changed the humming 1009 00:45:52,550 --> 00:45:51,599 absolutely once were in the car and 1010 00:45:56,390 --> 00:45:52,560 running 1011 00:45:58,910 --> 00:45:56,400 uh it was not the sound of it was 1012 00:46:01,069 --> 00:45:58,920 completely obliterated I I could uh I 1013 00:46:02,750 --> 00:46:01,079 could pick up nothing from it and you 1014 00:46:05,030 --> 00:46:02,760 had no trouble the radio or the light 1015 00:46:09,170 --> 00:46:05,040 beam or your lights or your motor no 1016 00:46:11,990 --> 00:46:09,180

I I had 1075 00:48:36,849 --> 00:48:35,040 I had made the statement to Bonnie and 1076 00:48:41,210 --> 00:48:36,859 and uh 1077 00:48:45,050 --> 00:48:41,220 that we had to try to identify it or to 1078 00:48:47,270 --> 00:48:45,060 tear it up I mean at this point we 1079 00:48:49,910 --> 00:48:47,280 I knew that there was something there 1080 00:48:53,270 --> 00:48:49,920 and I won I wanted to see it 1081 00:48:54,130 --> 00:48:53,280 I wanted to maintained its course as it 1082 00:49:06,230 --> 00:48:54,140 was 1083 00:49:07,730 --> 00:49:06,240 suddenly going to disappear daylight I 1084 00:49:10,970 --> 00:49:07,740 don't know if I could see it a daylight 1085 00:49:13,790 --> 00:49:10,980 but I knew that if there was wings 1086 00:49:16,490 --> 00:49:13,800 or something Towing this light I would 1087 00:49:19,190 --> 00:49:16,500 see another vehicle I would see a I 1088 00:49:22,430 --> 00:49:19,200 would see a helicopter or I would see 1089 00:49:24,170 --> 00:49:22,440 something that I could uh still to find 1090 00:49:27,530 --> 00:49:24,180 it still with this kind of hope that was 1091 00:49:30,170 --> 00:49:27,540 something uh ordinary right this is it I 1092 00:49:32,270 --> 00:49:30,180 I approached it I figured well I'll 1093 00:49:36,470 --> 00:49:32,280 disprove the theory that this is a 1094 00:49:39,470 --> 00:49:36,480 saucer it's a uh if it's a lot of this 1095 00:49:41,770 --> 00:49:39,480 Swan gas or something I'll I'll see it 1096 00:49:46,250 --> 00:49:41,780 I'll you know 1097 00:49:48,230 --> 00:49:46,260 when when things happen the

they've got any right to go around 1216 00:54:40,130 --> 00:54:38,640 scaring hell out of me with something I 1217 00:54:43,430 --> 00:54:40,140 don't know what it is 1218 00:54:46,190 --> 00:54:43,440 I uh I think that if it is ours 1219 00:54:48,410 --> 00:54:46,200 people got a right to know I mean even 1220 00:54:51,170 --> 00:54:48,420 if they just basically say that these 1221 00:54:53,510 --> 00:54:51,180 objects are ours they're harmless we're 1222 00:54:55,790 --> 00:54:53,520 experimenting with them uh they're part 1223 00:54:57,290 --> 00:54:55,800 of the space program or they're going to 1224 00:55:00,170 --> 00:54:57,300 be weather Vehicles they're going to be 1225 00:55:01,329 --> 00:55:00,180 used for observation at high altitudes 1226 00:55:04,010 --> 00:55:01,339 of something 1227 00:55:07,250 --> 00:55:04,020 if this is the case and they do belong 1228 00:55:09,109 --> 00:55:07,260 to us I think that we ought to be told I 1229 00:55:12,049 --> 00:55:09,119 I think that it's pretty ridiculous 1230 00:55:15,049 --> 00:55:12,059 everybody running around 1231 00:55:17,390 --> 00:55:15,059 I don't appreciate risk in my life uh 1232 00:55:18,890 --> 00:55:17,400 trying to identify something and uh in 1233 00:55:20,329 --> 00:55:18,900 other words you feel that you feel that 1234 00:55:21,230 --> 00:55:20,339 if they're going to test them they 1235 00:55:23,809 --> 00:55:21,240 shouldn't test them where they did 1236 00:55:25,130 --> 00:55:23,819 that's right they uh just tell me I I 1237 00:55:28,130 --> 00:55:25,140 don't want to go running up and down the 1238 00:55:30,770 --> 00:55:28,140 road 100 miles an hour I don't know uh 1239 00:55:32,329 --> 00:55:30,780 like I said if it belongs to us just 1240 00:55:34,250 --> 00:55:32,339 tell me it belongs to us and I'll accept 1241 00:55:36,530 --> 00:55:34,260 it if it doesn't and why the hell and 1242 00:55:39,049 --> 00:55:36,540 tell you help me find out what it is 1243 00:55:41,210 --> 00:55:39,059 I I don't mean it that way I mean I 1244 00:55:43,430 --> 00:55:41,220 figure they're they're smarter than I am 1245 00:55:44,990 --> 00:55:43,440 I hope uh if they're not we're in 1246 00:55:45,829 --> 00:55:45,000 trouble you feel though that they are 1247 00:55:47,690 --> 00:55:45,839 not 1248 00:55:48,950 --> 00:55:47,700 that they are the United States products 1249 00:55:51,410 --> 00:55:48,960 they should tell us about it number one 1250 00:55:53,630 --> 00:55:51,420 if they are if they are sure that they 1251 00:55:55,190 --> 00:55:53,640 are not should they tell us anyway I 1252 00:55:59,450 --> 00:55:55,200 believe they should because of the fact 1253 00:56:02,150 --> 00:55:59,460 it would give to get a some kind of a a 1254 00:56:05,210 --> 00:56:02,160 program or an agency to back these other 1255 00:56:07,609 --> 00:56:05,220 civilian uh programs or something to try 1256 00:56:11,329 --> 00:56:07,619 to definitely get an identification on 1257 00:56:13,370 --> 00:56:11,339 it if uh if it's a foreign ship if it's 1258 00:56:16,370 --> 00:56:13,380 Manufacturing in another country or if 1259 00:56:17,510 --> 00:56:16,380 it's uh even from outer space as far as 1260 00:56:19,549 --> 00:56:17,520 that goes 1261 00:56:21,589 --> 00:56:19,559 my object is everybody says it's 1262 00:56:22,910 --> 00:56:21,599 impossible uh I don't know why the hell 1263 00:56:24,950 --> 00:56:22,920 it would be impossible we're going to 1264 00:56:26,630 --> 00:56:24,960 shoot two men in the space just the next 1265 00:56:29,569 --> 00:56:26,640 couple of days 1266 00:56:30,829 --> 00:56:29,579 Russia shot a couple of wides out they 1267 00:56:34,130 --> 00:56:30,839 hit the moon 1268 00:56:37,490 --> 00:56:34,140 um who's to say we can't hear that I 1269 00:56:41,089 --> 00:56:37,500 mean if if they want to I know that the 1270 00:56:42,770 --> 00:56:41,099 things here I would I I definitely want 1271 00:56:46,190 --> 00:56:42,780 to read on it I'm gonna 1272 00:56:48,770 --> 00:56:46,200 study it uh not study it I want to know 1273 00:56:51,950 --> 00:56:48,780 a little more about it I 1274 00:56:53,990 --> 00:56:51,960 I would like to know uh and just do them 1275 00:56:56,210 --> 00:56:54,000 yeah that's good I wanted to see what 1276 00:56:58,490 --> 00:56:56,220 you did there as far as the quote as 1277 00:57:00,530 --> 00:56:58,500 making a facsimile of uh what you 1278 00:57:01,790 --> 00:57:00,540 actually saw there I don't know I think 1279 00:57:03,290 --> 00:57:01,800 that I've asked almost every question 1280 00:57:05,930 --> 00:57:03,300 that I possibly could ask and I'm 1281 00:57:07,430 --> 00:57:05,940 thinking did I miss anything 1282 00:57:09,230 --> 00:57:07,440 that's why I'm bothered with there I'm 1283 00:57:10,970 --> 00:57:09,240 missing there was no Sonic Boom there 1284 00:57:13,609 --> 00:57:10,980 was nothing like that there were no 1285 00:57:16,870 --> 00:57:13,619 flashes of light no flashes no thrush 1286 00:57:19,609 --> 00:57:16,880 the noises 1287 00:57:21,589 --> 00:57:19,619 passed over the trees did you notice 1288 00:57:23,630 --> 00:57:21,599 where the trees were moving or not 1289 00:57:24,349 --> 00:57:23,640 no I don't know was there any wind that 1290 00:57:26,870 --> 00:57:24,359 night 1291 00:57:29,390 --> 00:57:26,880 no the recycling for the weather report 1292 00:57:31,069 --> 00:57:29,400 three mile an hour but did you see 1293 00:57:33,170 --> 00:57:31,079 actually uh the object moved over the 1294 00:57:34,970 --> 00:57:33,180 tree did you actually see 1295 00:57:36,650 --> 00:57:34,980 that's went over the top of that tree I 1296 00:57:39,530 --> 00:57:36,660 uh for that minute when it started 1297 00:57:41,510 --> 00:57:39,540 getting bright I 1298 00:57:43,309 --> 00:57:41,520 know number two oh I know hasn't moved 1299 00:57:44,750 --> 00:57:43,319 North didn't move over an area of the 1300 00:57:47,170 --> 00:57:44,760 other two trees on the other side yes 1301 00:57:50,630 --> 00:57:47,180 sure and did you see any shaking 1302 00:57:52,549 --> 00:57:50,640 I just know that it was over that area I 1303 00:57:56,210 --> 00:57:52,559 You couldn't possibly look past this 1304 00:57:58,190 --> 00:57:56,220 vehicle to have seen it it would have 1305 00:57:59,270 --> 00:57:58,200 have been so bright it was too bright 1306 00:58:01,970 --> 00:57:59,280 and uh 1307 00:58:03,290 --> 00:58:01,980 I I wasn't paying any attention to trees 1308 00:58:05,990 --> 00:58:03,300 either I 1309 00:58:07,970 --> 00:58:06,000 at that point it would be very hard to 1310 00:58:10,670 --> 00:58:07,980 describe if anything you know I said no 1311 00:58:12,410 --> 00:58:10,680 we've got also your observation was made 1312 00:58:14,030 --> 00:58:12,420 outside the car with a naked eye and 1313 00:58:16,250 --> 00:58:14,040 you've got good Vision right 20 20 1314 00:58:17,809 --> 00:58:16,260 vision and uh you also saw it through 1315 00:58:20,690 --> 00:58:17,819 the windshield all the way through the 1316 00:58:22,130 --> 00:58:20,700 big chase right and then sometimes when 1317 00:58:24,790 --> 00:58:22,140 it was sideways you could see it through 1318 00:58:28,010 --> 00:58:24,800 the open window yes sir 1319 00:58:29,270 --> 00:58:28,020 it was uh it was not always right in 1320 00:58:31,849 --> 00:58:29,280 front of me 1321 00:58:34,250 --> 00:58:31,859 and now the other point is that I I want 1322 00:58:35,750 --> 00:58:34,260 to make again you made your point before 1323 00:58:37,730 --> 00:58:35,760 on a straight 1324 00:58:39,710 --> 00:58:37,740 when the object shifted positions from 1325 00:58:41,089 --> 00:58:39,720 your left to your right 1326 00:58:43,789 --> 00:58:41,099 yes 1327 00:58:47,089 --> 00:58:43,799 was the road straight or curved it was 1328 00:58:49,910 --> 00:58:47,099 straight it was a distinct maneuver it 1329 00:58:53,930 --> 00:58:49,920 is a vehicle itself 1330 00:58:57,730 --> 00:58:53,940 we we didn't change directions uh it's a 1331 00:59:00,650 --> 00:58:57,740 time that this uh whatever it is 1332 00:59:03,109 --> 00:59:00,660 maneuvered right it definitely had 1333 00:59:06,950 --> 00:59:03,119 control now number two I want your own 1334 00:59:08,569 --> 00:59:06,960 idea your own inner thinking about what 1335 00:59:11,470 --> 00:59:08,579 the heck this thing was doing he was 1336 00:59:15,950 --> 00:59:13,910 uh my own idea 1337 00:59:17,690 --> 00:59:15,960 of what he was doing right the reason I 1338 00:59:20,990 --> 00:59:17,700 brought this up is because you expressed 1339 00:59:24,049 --> 00:59:21,000 yourself last night I felt that this 1340 00:59:26,690 --> 00:59:24,059 thing one to observe me as bad as I want 1341 00:59:28,849 --> 00:59:26,700 to observe it it was like him watching 1342 00:59:30,289 --> 00:59:28,859 me why I watched it so to speak well let 1343 00:59:32,750 --> 00:59:30,299 me ask your question why didn't you slow 1344 00:59:34,190 --> 00:59:32,760 down to about 70 miles an hour and see 1345 00:59:37,609 --> 00:59:34,200 what it would do 1346 00:59:40,130 --> 00:59:37,619 I don't know it's like uh like I said 1347 00:59:41,870 --> 00:59:40,140 and maybe it would have slowed down this 1348 00:59:44,150 --> 00:59:41,880 is possibly true and yet you were doing 1349 00:59:45,950 --> 00:59:44,160 103 mile an hour 100 mile an hour across 1350 00:59:48,589 --> 00:59:45,960 the countryside just and you can slow 1351 00:59:51,289 --> 00:59:48,599 down at all no I just was compelled that 1352 00:59:53,530 --> 00:59:51,299 I just I don't know I just felt that I 1353 00:59:58,549 --> 00:59:53,540 had to drive this fast to stay with it I 1354 01:00:01,010 --> 00:59:58,559 I don't uh I know that it waited for me 1355 01:00:03,170 --> 01:00:01,020 and positive that I know that that was 1356 01:00:05,569 --> 01:00:03,180 an hallucination there was another car 1357 01:00:07,849 --> 01:00:05,579 behind me and he witnessed the same 1358 01:00:10,250 --> 01:00:07,859 thing what about these other cars now 1359 01:00:11,390 --> 01:00:10,260 that uh that uh were trying to catch up 1360 01:00:13,609 --> 01:00:11,400 so that they could use their cameras 1361 01:00:16,130 --> 01:00:13,619 were they able to see the objects they 1362 01:00:18,950 --> 01:00:16,140 were never they were never uh they were 1363 01:00:20,450 --> 01:00:18,960 all so far behind entangled up in the 1364 01:00:22,670 --> 01:00:20,460 direction did you ever see the object 1365 01:00:24,170 --> 01:00:22,680 itself none of them have stated to me I 1366 01:00:26,870 --> 01:00:24,180 haven't talked to any of them I haven't 1367 01:00:28,970 --> 01:00:26,880 I never had an opportunity from then 1368 01:00:30,890 --> 01:00:28,980 until now and then it's been a 1369 01:00:32,870 --> 01:00:30,900 never-ending thing since this started I 1370 01:00:35,930 --> 01:00:32,880 haven't had a chance to besides that man 1371 01:00:37,910 --> 01:00:35,940 right there uh Gerald Booker uh the 1372 01:00:39,650 --> 01:00:37,920 chief leases at Mantua was there any 1373 01:00:41,390 --> 01:00:39,660 other observations made around you that 1374 01:00:43,549 --> 01:00:41,400 you know about I'm talking about at the 1375 01:00:47,329 --> 01:00:43,559 time when yours was made at five o'clock 1376 01:00:49,010 --> 01:00:47,339 there was one uh fellow ending in our 1377 01:00:51,410 --> 01:00:49,020 organization 1378 01:00:54,170 --> 01:00:51,420 the state that he was on his way back 1379 01:00:57,170 --> 01:00:54,180 from the Emporium in Akron that he's 1380 01:00:59,030 --> 01:00:57,180 seen it uh just one bright object to him 1381 01:01:01,490 --> 01:00:59,040 from his distance of 1382 01:01:04,250 --> 01:01:01,500 which is undetermined was about the size 1383 01:01:06,470 --> 01:01:04,260 of a basketball from where he was at 1384 01:01:08,390 --> 01:01:06,480 and the distance at this time was 1385 01:01:11,569 --> 01:01:08,400 undetermined that how far it was away 1386 01:01:14,870 --> 01:01:11,579 from him the same as it was from Jerry 1387 01:01:16,609 --> 01:01:14,880 and manaway and also see what we need is 1388 01:01:18,710 --> 01:01:16,619 we need guys on the opposite side don't 1389 01:01:20,390 --> 01:01:18,720 we yes sir so that we could get some 1390 01:01:22,250 --> 01:01:20,400 kind of a triangulation we could get 1391 01:01:24,770 --> 01:01:22,260 that you'll find out exactly how far 1392 01:01:27,770 --> 01:01:24,780 away his camera shot was uh 1393 01:01:30,470 --> 01:01:27,780 this lady seen it at the time she called 1394 01:01:32,809 --> 01:01:30,480 was almost the same time the jury was 1395 01:01:36,049 -->
