1
00:00:04,970 --> 00:00:02,690
um who really do we think we are we're a

2
00:00:08,030 --> 00:00:04,980
fifth-rate miserable measly little

3
00:00:10,430 --> 00:00:08,040
system out on the edge of the Milky Way

4
00:00:12,709 --> 00:00:10,440
fooling around the universe with four or

5
00:00:14,570 --> 00:00:12,719
five thousand years of so-called

6
00:00:16,970 --> 00:00:14,580
civilization behind us we think we are

7
00:00:19,609 --> 00:00:16,980
the cat's whiskers and we are not we're

8
00:00:22,790 --> 00:00:19,619
a party is second-rate law fifth rate

9
00:00:24,650 --> 00:00:22,800
law conceited as Apes not all of us and

10
00:00:26,029 --> 00:00:24,660
and here we go and the moment anybody

11
00:00:28,790 --> 00:00:26,039
suggests that somebody should come in

12
00:00:30,170 --> 00:00:28,800
outside from from outside we think oh no

13
00:00:31,849 --> 00:00:30,180
no it can't be that can't be that it's

14
00:00:34,130 --> 00:00:31,859
it's quite out you know these things

15
00:00:35,690 --> 00:00:34,140
can't happen and it I think we're all I

16
00:00:36,889 --> 00:00:35,700
do it myself we're all thinking

17
00:00:39,110 --> 00:00:36,899
medievally

18
00:00:40,069 --> 00:00:39,120
what convinces you more than anything

19
00:00:41,990 --> 00:00:40,079
else

20
00:00:44,990 --> 00:00:42,000
the evidence of the men that have seen

21
00:00:47,330 --> 00:00:45,000
them and primarily the behavior and

22
00:00:49,910 --> 00:00:47,340
descriptions of the objects themselves

23
00:00:52,069 --> 00:00:49,920
which do not fit rarely any other

24
00:00:54,610 --> 00:00:52,079
explanation and the old field citing

25
00:00:57,889 --> 00:00:54,620
this thing which will become very famous

26
00:00:59,569 --> 00:00:57,899
where a couple who live in a cottage

27
00:01:02,810 --> 00:00:59,579
outside Manchester took their first

28
00:01:05,230 --> 00:01:02,820
Airline journey and they had aboard a

29
00:01:08,630 --> 00:01:05,240
little uh a film a little cine camera

30
00:01:10,130 --> 00:01:08,640
and they take pictures down the fields

31
00:01:13,370 --> 00:01:10,140
as a couple would the first time ever

32
00:01:15,830 --> 00:01:13,380
being an airplane and she takes what she

33
00:01:18,170 --> 00:01:15,840
thinks is an airplane coming up from

34
00:01:19,550 --> 00:01:18,180
behind them and then it goes out of a

35
00:01:21,710 --> 00:01:19,560
vision in about 12 seconds or

36
00:01:23,149 --> 00:01:21,720
thereabouts and she goes on taking a few

37
00:01:25,070 --> 00:01:23,159
more bits of their of their distant

38
00:01:27,350 --> 00:01:25,080
clouds and puts it back and when they

39
00:01:30,469 --> 00:01:27,360
get what's this thing I mean it's it's

40
00:01:34,190 --> 00:01:30,479
it's inexplicable by any uh unless it's

41
00:01:37,310 --> 00:01:34,200
a straight fake and to fake uh to fake

42
00:01:39,469 --> 00:01:37,320
an eight millimeter film in color

43
00:01:42,530 --> 00:01:39,479
wants a lot of equipment

44
00:01:44,569 --> 00:01:42,540
and who on Earth are these This Charming

45
00:01:46,969 --> 00:01:44,579
couple what would they be doing uh

46
00:01:49,789 --> 00:01:46,979
lending themselves to faking these it is

47
00:01:52,069 --> 00:01:49,799
nothing Airborne we've ever seen

48
00:01:55,670 --> 00:01:52,079
I mean this is basically sausage shaped

49
00:01:58,069 --> 00:01:55,680
with two dorsal and two ventral fins and

50
00:02:00,350 --> 00:01:58,079
as you look at this film it turns away

51
00:02:02,389 --> 00:02:00,360
on its vertical axis from you and goes

52
00:02:04,789 --> 00:02:02,399
disappears out that way

53
00:02:06,709 --> 00:02:04,799
well I mean you can argue into a blow in

54
00:02:10,570 --> 00:02:06,719
the face what is it except something

55
00:02:12,589 --> 00:02:10,580
that is Airborne by a force probably

56
00:02:15,470 --> 00:02:12,599
electrogravidic force of some kind that

57
00:02:16,910 --> 00:02:15,480
we know nothing whatever about uh it is

58
00:02:18,949 --> 00:02:16,920
nothing conventional that is nothing

59
00:02:22,729 --> 00:02:18,959
unconventional aerodynamically there's

60
00:02:24,830 --> 00:02:22,739
no single piece of earthborn equipment

61
00:02:26,510 --> 00:02:24,840
of any kind that can look and behave

62
00:02:28,250 --> 00:02:26,520
like that this is a British United

63
00:02:30,650 --> 00:02:28,260
Airways dark Herald the registration

64
00:02:32,390 --> 00:02:30,660
number golf alpha papa whiskey India

65
00:02:35,330 --> 00:02:32,400
shows it to be the very plain Mrs

66
00:02:37,490 --> 00:02:35,340
Oldfield flew in notice the tail plane

67
00:02:40,910 --> 00:02:37,500
it was this that suggested the flight

68
00:02:45,170 --> 00:02:43,130
our cameraman sat in the same seat as

69
00:02:47,330 --> 00:02:45,180
Mrs elffield had through the window

70
00:02:49,610 --> 00:02:47,340
notice how the viewers distorted at the

71
00:03:00,970 --> 00:02:49,620
edges the glass is slightly convex where

72
00:03:06,050 --> 00:03:03,470
taxiing out now for the takeoff

73
00:03:07,610 --> 00:03:06,060
a 16 millimeter camera is unwieldy and

74
00:03:09,110 --> 00:03:07,620
for hunting new fires perhaps less

75
00:03:11,149 --> 00:03:09,120
effective than the amateurs eight

76
00:03:14,149 --> 00:03:11,159
millimeter nevertheless watch very

77
00:03:17,570 --> 00:03:14,159
carefully here it comes tomorrow's

78
00:03:19,550 --> 00:03:17,580
world's very own UFO

79
00:03:21,710 --> 00:03:19,560
thank you

80
00:03:23,690 --> 00:03:21,720
this is how Mrs oilfield described her

81
00:03:25,309 --> 00:03:23,700
experience I looked out of the window

82
00:03:27,410 --> 00:03:25,319
and saw what I thought to be some kind

83
00:03:29,509 --> 00:03:27,420
of large aircraft cutting a bleak clay

84
00:03:31,790 --> 00:03:29,519
across the back of our aircraft it was

85
00:03:33,589 --> 00:03:31,800
smooth but not shiny or glittering it

86
00:03:35,449 --> 00:03:33,599
was clearly defined

87
00:03:37,550 --> 00:03:35,459
what we are seeing now is in fact a

88
00:03:39,830 --> 00:03:37,560
direct view of the tail plane of the

89
00:03:41,990 --> 00:03:39,840
aircraft seen at an acute angle to the

90
00:03:44,030 --> 00:03:42,000
window glass at the edge of the windows

91
00:03:45,770 --> 00:03:44,040
the angle of the glass changes breaking

92
00:03:52,250 --> 00:03:45,780
the image and making it seem to float

93
00:03:56,869 --> 00:03:54,710
there's porthals on the UFO are in fact

94
00:03:59,240 --> 00:03:56,879
flaking paint on the Leading Edge of the

95
00:04:01,250 --> 00:03:59,250
tail plane
