00:01:51,190 --> 00:01:47,360 when i was in the cub scouts 40 00:01:52,950 --> 00:01:51,200 we were at this over at this guy's house 41 00:01:56,389 --> 00:01:52,960 and i was 42 00:01:58,950 --> 00:01:56,399 laying on a hill watching the sky and i 43 00:01:59,670 --> 00:01:58,960 saw something go across the sky in three 44 00:02:02,149 --> 00:01:59,680 seconds 45 00:02:02,950 --> 00:02:02,159

00:02:15,840 uh nobody had seen it then the next 53 00:02:19,990 --> 00:02:18,160 thing i remembered was uh 54 00:02:21,990 --> 00:02:20,000 many years later i was descending in the 55 00:02:25,030

--> 00:08:59,600 or going vertically down behind the 217 00:09:04,070 --> 00:09:00,480 mountains 218 00:09:06,470 --> 00:09:04,080 i got the telescope lined up 219 00:09:07,269 --> 00:09:06,480 and saw in fact it was a disc and it was 220 00:09:13,509 --> 00:09:07,279 radiating 221 00:09:15,829 --> 00:09:13,519 yellowish kind of substance and 222 00:09:17,190 --> 00:09:15,839 i watched it for a few seconds and then 223 00:09:21,030 --> 00:09:17,200 i pulled away 224 00:09:23,910 --> 00:09:21,040 to let gene huff luck 225 00:09:25,990 --> 00:09:23,920 and as i pulled stepped away i hooked my 226 00:09:27,829 --> 00:09:26,000 foot around one of the tripods 227 00:09:29,350 --> 00:09:27,839 and moved the scope and he didn't get to 228 00:09:32,790 --> 00:09:29,360 see it speaking of 229 00:09:35,350 --> 00:09:32,800 bob lazar there is a lot of ufologists 230 00:09:35,990 --> 00:09:35,360 who have done a lot of research and and 231 00:09:38,870 --> 00:09:36,000 there's a lot 232 00:09:39,670 --> 00:09:38,880 of speculation that bob lazar was a 233 00:09:41,670 --> 00:09:39,680 fraud 234 00:09:43,910 --> 00:09:41,680 as far as the whole story goes and i 235 00:09:46,470 --> 00:09:43,920 know you were good friends with him 236 00:09:48,310 --> 00:09:46,480 uh i just wondered what you have you 237 00:09:51,430 --> 00:09:48,320 come to any different conclusion 238 00:09:53,590 --> 00:09:51,440 over the years yeah i uh my personal 239 00:09:56,070 --> 00:09:53,600 opinion he's not a friday 240 00:09:58,949 --> 00:09:56,080 he uh when i first met him he didn't 241 00:10:01,750 --> 00:09:58,959 believe in ufos it took us 242 00:10:04,150 --> 00:10:01,760 three or four months to get him 243 00:10:07,269 --> 00:10:04,160 interested enough that he would uh apply 244 00:10:13,910 --> 00:10:07,279 for a job at groom lake 245 00:10:18,630 --> 00:10:16,310 forget his name now but anyway i was 246 00:10:22,069 --> 00:10:18,640 there when he made the call 247 00:10:26,150 --> 00:10:22,079 and he got three interviews 248 00:10:28,470 --> 00:10:26,160 over the next uh two months 249 00:10:30,470 --> 00:10:28,480 and the next thing i knew he was sitting 250 00:10:33,670 --> 00:10:30,480 at my desk on a 251 00:10:36,310 --> 00:10:33,680 december i think it was sixth 1988 and 252 00:10:39,030 --> 00:10:36,320 he says i saw a disc today and i said 253 00:10:40,230 --> 00:10:39,040 what and he said i saw a dish today and 254 00:10:42,870 --> 00:10:40,240 i said 255 00:10:44,310 --> 00:10:42,880 there's her eyes he said theirs and i 256 00:10:45,590 --> 00:10:44,320 said what are you doing here i said why 257 00:10:47,269 --> 00:10:45,600 don't you 258 00:10:48,790 --> 00:10:47,279 find out what's going on because they've 259 00:10:50,550 --> 00:10:48,800 obviously followed you why don't you 260 00:10:52,230 --> 00:10:50,560 find out what's going on and then tell 261 00:10:55,030 --> 00:10:52,240 me 262 00:10:56,790 --> 00:10:55,040 he said no he said you know the truth is 263 00:11:00,310 --> 00:10:56,800 i've seen you take so much crap 264 00:11:03,350 --> 00:11:00,320 over the past few months uh and 265 00:11:05,990 --> 00:11:03,360 uh i've seen it i've touched it 266 00:11:07,670 --> 00:11:06,000 i know it's true and so i'm coming 267 00:11:09,910 --> 00:11:07,680 forward to tell you that yes it 268 00:11:11,509 --> 00:11:09,920 it's true that you everything you said 269 00:11:14,870 --> 00:11:11,519 is true 270 00:11:18,389 --> 00:11:14,880 so um that was the 271 00:11:19,910 --> 00:11:18,399 december 6th and uh that was when he uh 272 00:11:23,269 --> 00:11:19,920 the first day he went to green 273 00:11:25,750 --> 00:11:23,279 went to work on um went to work up at 274 00:11:28,310 --> 00:11:25,760 groom lake 275 00:11:29,670 --> 00:11:28,320 a lot of people are you know have looked 276 00:11:32,870 --> 00:11:29,680 into his 277 00:11:35,670 --> 00:11:32,880 educational background and and it just 278 00:11:37,829 --> 00:11:35,680 doesn't come up to snuff uh with the 279 00:11:40,310 --> 00:11:37,839 positions that he claimed to have had 280 00:11:41,990 --> 00:11:40,320 so i i know there's still a lot of 281 00:11:43,829 --> 00:11:42,000 controversy about that are you still in 282 00:11:47,269 --> 00:11:43,839 touch with bob these days 283 00:11:50,389 --> 00:11:47,279 yeah bob lives in i think it's 284 00:11:52,389 --> 00:11:50,399 bainbridge michigan 285 00:11:54,069 --> 00:11:52,399 and i think he's the third or fourth 286 00:11:57,269 --> 00:11:54,079 largest distributor of scientific 287 00:12:00,629 --> 00:11:57,279 supplies to schools and universities 288 00:12:03,590 --> 00:12:00,639 and because of the economy he's 289 00:12:07,829 --> 00:12:03,600 downsizing now he's moving into a 290 00:12:09,350 --> 00:12:07,839 a smaller warehouse 291 00:12:11,110 --> 00:12:09,360 he was going to come to my birthday 292 00:12:13,670 --> 00:12:11,120 party last 293 00:12:15,430 --> 00:12:13,680 saturday or sunday but because of this 294 00:12:18,870 --> 00:12:15,440 move he just couldn't make it 295 00:12:21,350 --> 00:12:18,880 as far as paul benowitz now you 296 00:12:23,269 --> 00:12:21,360 you actually knew him or you you 297 00:12:23,990 --> 00:12:23,279 actually spent a few days at his house 298 00:12:26,870 --> 00:12:24,000 is that is 299 00:12:28,629 --> 00:12:26,880 that correct yeah a guy named chris 300 00:12:32,629 --> 00:12:28,639 lambright introduced me to 301 00:12:34,310 --> 00:12:32,639 paul and we became good friends i stayed 302 00:12:37,190 --> 00:12:34,320 at his house uh 303 00:12:38,389 --> 00:12:37,200 two nights and uh listened to his 304 00:12:41,590 --> 00:12:38,399 stories 305 00:12:44,389 --> 00:12:41,600 and he was a really interesting guy 306 00:12:47,190 --> 00:12:44,399 the unhappy thing about it was three 307 00:12:49,990 --> 00:12:47,200 weeks before he passed away 308 00:12:51,910 --> 00:12:50,000 which was about i think 10 years ago he 309 00:12:52,710 --> 00:12:51,920 called me here in las vegas and said 310 00:12:55,750 --> 00:12:52,720 john 311 00:12:57,030 --> 00:12:55,760 i'd like to see it and

00:13:11,030 --> 00:13:10,160 always wondered what he was going to 319 00:13:13,829 --> 00:13:11,040 tell me 320 00:13:14,710 --> 00:13:13,839 wow there there was some speculation 321 00:13:21,590 -->

at me not necessarily you 325 00:13:30,389 --> 00:13:29,279 but uh other people that he was in touch 326 00:13:32,710 --> 00:13:30,399 with um he 327 00:13:34,389 --> 00:13:32,720 he kind of isolated

00:13:40,079 he told me everything that he knew and 332 00:13:42,710 --> 00:13:41,760 he thought that i was going to take it 333 00:13:46,069 --> 00:13:42,720 direct to con 334 00:13:48,470 -->

close to be taken over by the 338 00:13:57,350 --> 00:13:53,760 graves 339 00:13:58,150 --> 00:13:57,360 and uh he wanted help but as it turns 340 00:14:02,310 --> 00:13:58,160 out 341 00:14:05,509

347 00:14:24,069 --> 00:14:22,240 new mexico was kind of something that 348 00:14:24,710 --> 00:14:24,079 was thrown at bennowitz to kind of get 349 00:14:26,470 --> 00:14:24,720 his 350 00:14:28,230

00:14:41,920 and he did so by 357 00:14:46,949 --> 00:14:45,519 the interviews with um uh 358 00:14:49,430 --> 00:14:46,959 i'll have to remember her name in a 359 00:14:53,189 --> 00:14:49,440 second

00:15:09,750 --> 00:15:08,720 uh the person i'm thinking about that 367 00:15:12,790 --> 00:15:09,760 was the 368 00:15:14,150 --> 00:15:12,800 lady that came to his house and he did 369 00:15:17,509

00:15:59,120 that into 386 00:16:02,389 --> 00:16:01,519 benowitz's head but if if they did then 387 00:16:05,110 --> 00:16:02,399 how come he 388 00:16:06,389 --> 00:16:05,120 was the first one to

far as research on aliens at that 423 00:17:28,710 --> 00:17:24,319 point 424 00:17:31,510 --> 00:17:28,720 and so he wrote he wrote this 425 00:17:32,549 --> 00:17:31,520 10 or 15 page maybe it was less than 426 00:17:35,590 --> 00:17:32,559 that 427 00:17:38,630 --> 00:17:35,600 of the situation and then he told me 428 00:17:40,310 --> 00:17:38,640 you know i'd like to distribute this but 429 00:17:41,909 --> 00:17:40,320 i can't use my name because i work with 430 00:17:44,070 --> 00:17:41,919 the air force and i don't want to become 431 00:17:46,789 --> 00:17:44,080 a problem 432 00:17:47,909 --> 00:17:46,799 so he said can you think of a name uh we 433 00:17:50,549 --> 00:17:47,919 could use 434 00:17:51,110 --> 00:17:50,559 and i immediately thought of this alien 435 00:17:55,270 --> 00:17:51,120 that the 436 00:17:58,830 --> 00:17:55,280 pentagon had been uh in touch with 437 00:18:01,669 --> 00:17:58,840 at the pentagon whose name was krill 438 00:18:04,990 --> 00:18:01,679 c-r-l-l-l and uh 439 00:18:06,870 --> 00:18:05,000 i said but we'll change the spelling to 440 00:18:09,430 --> 00:18:06,880 k-r-i-l-l 441 00:18:11,270 --> 00:18:09,440 and he said okay good and what about a 442 00:18:14,150 --> 00:18:11,280 first name or initials 443 00:18:15,590 --> 00:18:14,160 and i said i don't know it's up to you 444 00:18:18,950 --> 00:18:15,600 and he picked oh
