24 00:01:16,710 --> 00:01:15,600 10 years of college to get a phd in 25 00:01:18,390 --> 00:01:16,720 physics 26 00:01:19,350 --> 00:01:18,400 from american university in washington 27 00:01:20,469 --> 00:01:19,360 dc 28 00:01:22,550 --> 00:01:20,479 and i 29 00:01:25,190 --> 00:01:22,560 went to work for the navy in 30 00:01:28,950 --> 00:01:25,200 january of 1972 and 31 00:01:31,350 --> 00:01:28,960 stayed there until 2008 36 years wow 32 00:01:33,190 --> 00:01:31,360 that's a long run maybe experience here 33 00:01:34,710 --> 00:01:33,200 i had no idea that was going to happen 34 00:01:36,710 --> 00:01:34,720 when i started off i thought i'd work 35 00:01:39,270 --> 00:01:36,720 for the navy for a few years and work 36 00:01:41,510 --> 00:01:39,280 for a company or something but anyway of 37 00:01:43,270 --> 00:01:41,520 course i did a lot of different uh 38 00:01:45,030 --> 00:01:43,280 research projects 39 00:01:46,789 --> 00:01:45,040 for the navy 40 00:01:49,190 --> 00:01:46,799 but in the meantime 41 00:01:52,149 --> 00:01:49,200 um in the late 60s while i was getting 42 00:01:54,230 --> 00:01:52,159 my phd i got interested in the ufo 43 00:01:55,990 --> 00:01:54,240 phenomenon and 44 00:01:57,670 --> 00:01:56,000 went on some case investigations with 45 00:02:00,550 --> 00:01:57,680 some other people 46 00:02:04,069 --> 00:02:00,560 in the late 60s early 70s and then 47 00:02:07,030 --> 00:02:04,079 you might say struck out on my own 48 00:02:09,190 --> 00:02:07,040 in the 70s and 80s 90s and even up until 49 00:02:10,070 --> 00:02:09,200 today for example 50 00:02:12,630 --> 00:02:10,080 so 51 00:02:16,550 --> 00:02:14,949 experience in interviewing 52 00:02:20,309 --> 00:02:16,560 interviewing people and 53 00:02:21,670 --> 00:02:20,319 creating the history of a sighting and 54 00:02:25,510 --> 00:02:21,680 analysis 55 00:02:27,270 --> 00:02:25,520 as possible 56 00:02:29,350 --> 00:02:27,280 you have to have a lot of a 57 00:02:30,869 --> 00:02:29,360 scientific background 58 00:02:33,030 --> 00:02:30,879 of various types 59 00:02:35,670 --> 00:02:33,040 in order to handle the ufo subject 60 00:02:40,070 --> 00:02:37,509 things like astronomy 61 00:02:41,350 --> 00:02:40,080 can can be very important knowing stars 62 00:02:43,589 --> 00:02:41,360 and planets and 63 00:02:44,949 --> 00:02:43,599 what's up in the sky and stuff like that 64 00:02:47,990 --> 00:02:44,959 so you left 65 00:02:50,229 --> 00:02:48,000 you left the navy in 2008 so you were 66 00:02:52,470 --> 00:02:50,239 doing both was there ever a conflict at 67 00:02:54,150 --> 00:02:52,480 all no 68 00:02:55,750 --> 00:02:54,160 the navy people 69 00:02:57,030 --> 00:02:55,760 told me to just leave their name out of 70 00:02:58,470 --> 00:02:57,040 it and 71 00:02:59,509 --> 00:02:58,480 they didn't care what i did on my own 72 00:03:00,949 --> 00:02:59,519 time 73 00:03:04,309 --> 00:03:00,959 wow 74 00:03:05,350 --> 00:03:04,319 that's uh that's almost surprising um 75 00:03:08,070 --> 00:03:05,360 but 76 00:03:10,390 --> 00:03:08,080 that's great they let you do that i know 77 00:03:11,589 --> 00:03:10,400 analysis is a big part of that can you 78 00:03:12,550 --> 00:03:11,599 explain 79 00:03:14,790 --> 00:03:12,560 and 80 00:03:16,710 --> 00:03:14,800 just before we go on with that question 81 00:03:18,710 --> 00:03:16,720 i think i heard you say in a video one 82 00:03:20,229 --> 00:03:18,720 time or maybe at a conference 83 00:03:22,630 --> 00:03:20,239 that 84 00:03:24,070 --> 00:03:22,640 photos don't really matter 85 00:03:27,990 --> 00:03:24,080 as much as 86 00:03:29,350 --> 00:03:28,000 the witnesses to corroborate the photo 87 00:03:31,110 --> 00:03:29,360 so can you kind of explain what you 88 00:03:34,630 --> 00:03:31,120 meant by that and what's involved in 89 00:03:37,830 --> 00:03:34,640 doing analysis on a typical photo 90 00:03:38,949 --> 00:03:37,840 well what i said was a photo a ufo does 91 00:03:40,710 --> 00:03:38,959 not make 92 00:03:42,070 --> 00:03:40,720 you got to have a lot of circumstantial 93 00:03:44,229 --> 00:03:42,080 evidence 94 00:03:45,190 --> 00:03:44,239 support the photo a photo can break a 95 00:03:47,270 --> 00:03:45,200 case 96 00:03:50,390 --> 00:03:47,280 there might be some evidence in it 97 00:03:52,229 --> 00:03:50,400 that is clearly showing it's a hoax a 98 00:03:54,869 --> 00:03:52,239 little thin line coming down at the top 99 00:03:57,990 --> 00:03:54,879 of a ufo or some sort of support at the 100 00:03:58,869 --> 00:03:58,000 bottom or something like that 101 00:04:00,789 --> 00:03:58,879 but 102 00:04:03,750 --> 00:04:00,799 if you find no evidence of faking you 103 00:04:05,589 --> 00:04:03,760 could say well that's a perfect fake 104 00:04:06,869 --> 00:04:05,599 i don't know what you do 105 00:04:08,630 --> 00:04:06,879 yeah 106 00:04:10,630 --> 00:04:08,640 i learned this the hard way you might 107 00:04:12,949 --> 00:04:10,640 say from my study of 108 00:04:14,710 --> 00:04:12,959 the trent photos the windville photo 109 00:04:17,830 --> 00:04:14,720 window oregon 110 00:04:20,550 --> 00:04:17,840 uh may 11th 1950. 111 00:04:22,150 --> 00:04:20,560 two photographs taken by a farmer oh yes 112 00:04:24,150 --> 00:04:22,160 water spotted this thing that's right 113 00:04:25,110 --> 00:04:24,160 it's right by uh right by a building 114 00:04:28,230 --> 00:04:25,120 right 115 00:04:30,870 --> 00:04:28,240 well you see a garage 116 00:04:33,350 --> 00:04:30,880 part of the garage in the in the picture 117 00:04:34,310 --> 00:04:33,360 you see a couple of wires going over the 118 00:04:35,430 --> 00:04:34,320 top 119 00:04:37,670 --> 00:04:35,440 you see this 120 00:04:40,070 --> 00:04:37,680 two pictures showing 121 00:04:41,830 --> 00:04:40,080 different orientations of this object 122 00:04:44,469 --> 00:04:41,840 and the pictures are clear enough you 123 00:04:45,830 --> 00:04:44,479 don't need magnifying glass to see 124 00:04:48,230 --> 00:04:45,840 uh 125 00:04:49,830 --> 00:04:48,240 what the image shape is 126 00:04:51,830 --> 00:04:49,840 that's clearly the real thing or a hoax 127 00:04:52,790 --> 00:04:51,840 there's no halfway point 128 00:04:55,590 --> 00:04:52,800 so 129 00:04:58,150 --> 00:04:55,600 this illustrates the situation uh 130 00:05:00,390 --> 00:04:58,160 lots of laboratories have looked at this 131 00:05:02,469 --> 00:05:00,400 the original negatives and tried to find 132 00:05:04,550 --> 00:05:02,479 proof evidence of a hoax 133 00:05:05,990 --> 00:05:04,560 and haven't found it but you know they 134 00:05:07,909 --> 00:05:06,000 could have been lucky 135 00:05:10,950 --> 00:05:07,919 or they could have been clever 136 00:05:12,150 --> 00:05:10,960 if you consider the uh pile of a string 137 00:05:14,469 --> 00:05:12,160 for example 138 00:05:15,749 --> 00:05:14,479 it has to be a certain 139 00:05:17,909 --> 00:05:15,759 thickness 140 00:05:20,150 --> 00:05:17,919 anything that's too thin 141 00:05:21,590 --> 00:05:20,160 wouldn't be still it would be soldered 142 00:05:23,510 --> 00:05:21,600 against the background 143 00:05:24,870 --> 00:05:23,520 gray sky this is a black and white 144 00:05:27,110 --> 00:05:24,880 photograph 145 00:05:28,950 --> 00:05:27,120 so the background sky just looks you 146 00:05:30,870 --> 00:05:28,960 know light colored if they had been 147 00:05:33,909 --> 00:05:30,880 clever and had taken a thread that was 148 00:05:36,790 --> 00:05:33,919 that matched the color of the background 149 00:05:38,469 --> 00:05:36,800 then you never see it at all 150 00:05:39,909 --> 00:05:38,479 because you've got to have contrast in 151 00:05:44,150 --> 00:05:39,919 order to see something 152 00:05:47,189 --> 00:05:44,160 right right and uh so then 153 00:05:48,629 --> 00:05:47,199 i did a lot of uh study on that 154 00:05:50,469 --> 00:05:48,639 particular case 155 00:05:51,749 --> 00:05:50,479 in the early in the middle 70s because 156 00:05:53,510 --> 00:05:51,759 it was the first the only one that was 157 00:05:56,150 --> 00:05:53,520 sort of endorsed 158 00:05:58,070 --> 00:05:56,160 by the photograph photographic analyst 159 00:06:01,430 --> 00:05:58,080 william dr william hartman who was 160 00:06:03,990 --> 00:06:01,440 working for the uh the condom committee 161 00:06:06,230 --> 00:06:04,000 as part of what was called the 162 00:06:08,309 --> 00:06:06,240 scientific study of identify flying 163 00:06:09,590 --> 00:06:08,319 objects carried out of the university of 164 00:06:11,510 --> 00:06:09,600 colorado in 165 00:06:12,629 --> 00:06:11,520 68 69 166 00:06:14,390 --> 00:06:12,639 time for it 167 00:06:15,110 --> 00:06:14,400 hartmann had said that 168 00:06:19,590 --> 00:06:15,120 he 169 00:06:20,950 --> 00:06:19,600 factors investigators seem to point 170 00:06:22,870 --> 00:06:20,960 towards the 171 00:06:24,870 --> 00:06:22,880 truth of the claim that witnesses that 172 00:06:26,870 --> 00:06:24,880 they saw an extra extraordinary flying 173 00:06:28,950 --> 00:06:26,880 object passed by in other words he was 174 00:06:30,309 --> 00:06:28,960 convinced that was the only case that he 175 00:06:32,070 --> 00:06:30,319 thought was a 176 00:06:33,510 --> 00:06:32,080 could really be real 177 00:06:35,350 --> 00:06:33,520 as i said it was either the real thing 178 00:06:36,950 --> 00:06:35,360 or a hoax and he didn't find any 179 00:06:39,430 --> 00:06:36,960 evidence he could point to to prove it 180 00:06:41,909 --> 00:06:39,440 was a hoax but then uh some people came 181 00:06:44,150 --> 00:06:41,919 along clay and criticized his analysis 182 00:06:47,590 --> 00:06:44,160 and so on and schaefer and robert 183 00:06:49,990 --> 00:06:47,600 shaffer and philip j class 184 00:06:52,070 --> 00:06:50,000 enhancements analysis 185 00:06:54,150 --> 00:06:52,080 partially on photographic grounds and 186 00:06:56,469 --> 00:06:54,160 partially on 187 00:06:58,550 --> 00:06:56,479 how it wasn't in a sense hard enough on 188 00:07:00,790 --> 00:06:58,560 the witnesses i guess you might say 189 00:07:03,350 --> 00:07:00,800 anyway i spent many years investigating 190 00:07:04,950 --> 00:07:03,360 it both from the point of view of 191 00:07:06,390 --> 00:07:04,960 technical deals of details of the 192 00:07:07,749 --> 00:07:06,400 photography 193 00:07:10,150 --> 00:07:07,759 and 194 00:07:11,749 --> 00:07:10,160 the life history of the friends 195 00:07:12,550 --> 00:07:11,759 and i 196 00:07:13,909 --> 00:07:12,560 got 197 00:07:15,270 --> 00:07:13,919 testimony from a number of different 198 00:07:17,350 --> 00:07:15,280 people who had 199 00:07:20,390 --> 00:07:17,360 known the friends and so on and the 200 00:07:22,550 --> 00:07:20,400 trend stayed alive up until 1995 i was 201 00:07:23,990 --> 00:07:22,560 interacting with him from 1974 202 00:07:25,430 --> 00:07:24,000 approximately through 203 00:07:28,309 --> 00:07:25,440 1980 204 00:07:31,909 --> 00:07:28,319 talking to mrs trent many times 205 00:07:33,189 --> 00:07:31,919 and they both died in the middle 90s and 206 00:07:34,070 --> 00:07:33,199 they were 207 00:07:36,230 --> 00:07:34,080 they 208 00:07:39,670 --> 00:07:36,240 were maintaining their story right up to 209 00:07:42,870 --> 00:07:40,790 and 210 00:07:44,710 --> 00:07:42,880 nobody that i know found any evidence 211 00:07:46,870 --> 00:07:44,720 that they would be likely to even think 212 00:07:48,710 --> 00:07:46,880 of a hoax of any type of all say nothing 213 00:07:50,870 --> 00:07:48,720 about ufo hoax 214 00:07:53,270 --> 00:07:50,880 they were you know what we might call 215 00:07:54,629 --> 00:07:53,280 simple farmers 216 00:07:57,029 --> 00:07:54,639 and 217 00:07:58,790 --> 00:07:57,039 have plenty to keep them busy besides 218 00:08:00,710 --> 00:07:58,800 making up a model and hanging out a 219 00:08:02,309 --> 00:08:00,720 string and then 220 00:08:03,990 --> 00:08:02,319 for whatever it was worth which wasn't 221 00:08:05,749 --> 00:08:04,000 wasn't anything really 222 00:08:07,909 --> 00:08:05,759 yeah they didn't make any money out of 223 00:08:10,629 --> 00:08:07,919 the whole thing now there was very 224 00:08:12,230 --> 00:08:10,639 similar object was uh there's photos on 225 00:08:14,390 --> 00:08:12,240 in different places in the world isn't 226 00:08:16,070 --> 00:08:14,400 that right well there's only one other 227 00:08:17,029 --> 00:08:16,080 case that i know that looks 228 00:08:18,710 --> 00:08:17,039 uh 229 00:08:20,469 --> 00:08:18,720 virtually identical it's just a slightly 230 00:08:21,990 --> 00:08:20,479 different orientation and that's a 231 00:08:24,469 --> 00:08:22,000 so-called 232 00:08:26,550 --> 00:08:24,479 photo taken supposedly 233 00:08:28,629 --> 00:08:26,560 france 234 00:08:29,510 --> 00:08:28,639 by a military 235 00:08:31,749 --> 00:08:29,520 some 236 00:08:32,469 --> 00:08:31,759 pilot in a military airplane that's the 237 00:08:34,230 --> 00:08:32,479 way 238 00:08:36,070 --> 00:08:34,240 the story appeared 239 00:08:37,110 --> 00:08:36,080 in the royal air force for squatting 240 00:08:39,509 --> 00:08:37,120 review 241 00:08:41,350 --> 00:08:39,519 and fought and 242 00:08:43,350 --> 00:08:41,360 flying saucer review 243 00:08:44,550 --> 00:08:43,360 two magazines that were published in 244 00:08:46,710 --> 00:08:44,560 england 245 00:08:48,630 --> 00:08:46,720 uh they both mentioned this photograph 246 00:08:50,630 --> 00:08:48,640 unfortunately nobody's ever attract been 247 00:08:52,870 --> 00:08:50,640 able to track that photo back 248 00:08:55,430 --> 00:08:52,880 to its origin 249 00:08:57,590 --> 00:08:55,440 and uh nobody did an investigation of it 250 00:09:00,230 --> 00:08:57,600 at the time it was published 251 00:09:03,110 --> 00:09:00,240 uh all we know is that they say it was 252 00:09:05,430 --> 00:09:03,120 a photo taken in 1957. and that's the 253 00:09:08,470 --> 00:09:05,440 only one that looks would be almost 254 00:09:10,070 --> 00:09:08,480 identical to the tread photos they have 255 00:09:11,190 --> 00:09:10,080 then of course lots of other photos of 256 00:09:12,630 --> 00:09:11,200 circular 257 00:09:14,710 --> 00:09:12,640 shaped craft 258 00:09:16,949 --> 00:09:14,720 but it sort of had like a flat top to it 259 00:09:18,790 --> 00:09:16,959 or it looks something like flat one has 260 00:09:21,030 --> 00:09:18,800 a truck where there's a pole a pole on 261 00:09:22,790 --> 00:09:21,040 the top oh that's right okay yes i 262 00:09:27,350 --> 00:09:22,800 remember that now 263 00:09:30,389 --> 00:09:28,150 now 264 00:09:32,790 --> 00:09:30,399 did you ever take a look at the 265 00:09:34,310 --> 00:09:32,800 three or four polaroid pictures that 266 00:09:37,030 --> 00:09:34,320 were taken from 267 00:09:39,829 --> 00:09:37,040 the person in the truck um 268 00:09:41,350 --> 00:09:39,839 sorry i don't have my face 269 00:09:43,870 --> 00:09:41,360 you're talking about the headphone case 270 00:09:46,949 --> 00:09:43,880 that's right yeah 271 00:09:48,230 --> 00:09:46,959 65 i think that was 272 00:09:50,790 --> 00:09:48,240 um 273 00:09:52,630 --> 00:09:50,800 i look at it but it's most recently been 274 00:09:53,829 --> 00:09:52,640 studied by other people 275 00:09:56,630 --> 00:09:53,839 because uh 276 00:09:58,070 --> 00:09:56,640 when i was looking at it in the 1970s 277 00:10:00,470 --> 00:09:58,080 80s 278 00:10:02,310 --> 00:10:00,480 all i had were copies 279 00:10:04,389 --> 00:10:02,320 in that situation 280 00:10:05,190 --> 00:10:04,399 rex huffman said that a few days after 281 00:10:10,710 --> 00:10:05,200 he 282 00:10:13,750 --> 00:10:10,720 so people showed up 283 00:10:15,269 --> 00:10:13,760 with the military uniforms on a black 284 00:10:16,870 --> 00:10:15,279 car or whatever 285 00:10:18,470 --> 00:10:16,880 and requested 286 00:10:19,509 --> 00:10:18,480 they ask if they could borrow the 287 00:10:21,430 --> 00:10:19,519 pictures 288 00:10:23,030 --> 00:10:21,440 for analysis 289 00:10:24,790 --> 00:10:23,040 they had already been to the general 290 00:10:26,630 --> 00:10:24,800 publishing laboratory into the alpha 291 00:10:28,949 --> 00:10:26,640 marine base i believe 292 00:10:31,430 --> 00:10:28,959 or at least the altar marine base 293 00:10:33,190 --> 00:10:31,440 and they had been returned so he 294 00:10:34,310 --> 00:10:33,200 gave up these pictures 295 00:10:36,150 --> 00:10:34,320 and then he 296 00:10:38,150 --> 00:10:36,160 never returned 297 00:10:39,750 --> 00:10:38,160 his original polaroids 298 00:10:41,269 --> 00:10:39,760 were gone 299 00:10:43,829 --> 00:10:41,279 for a long time but they came back to 300 00:10:45,430 --> 00:10:43,839 someone they came back in the middle 90s 301 00:10:46,630 --> 00:10:45,440 some lady 302 00:10:49,190 --> 00:10:46,640 called him on the phone and said why 303 00:10:50,630 --> 00:10:49,200 don't you go out and check your mailbox 304 00:10:52,230 --> 00:10:50,640 and sure enough there has been what were 305 00:10:54,230 --> 00:10:52,240 those pictures of it that is just 306 00:10:56,389 --> 00:10:54,240 bizarre isn't it 307 00:10:57,990 --> 00:10:56,399 yeah i don't know strange circumstances 308 00:10:59,269 --> 00:10:58,000 make this have to be from that point 309 00:11:00,790 --> 00:10:59,279 they'll make it out to be a hoax for the 310 00:11:03,110 --> 00:11:00,800 real thing it doesn't 311 00:11:04,790 --> 00:11:03,120 but a much more sophisticated analysis 312 00:11:05,910 --> 00:11:04,800 has shown that uh 313 00:11:07,430 --> 00:11:05,920 um 314 00:11:09,430 --> 00:11:07,440 it's quite likely that this this is a 315 00:11:11,750 --> 00:11:09,440 real case 316 00:11:17,030 --> 00:11:11,760 even uh factor faked has done some stuff 317 00:11:19,509 --> 00:11:17,040 on a tv show oh really yeah yeah and uh 318 00:11:20,230 --> 00:11:19,519 they their big thing is to make models 319 00:11:24,550 --> 00:11:20,240 and 320 00:11:27,030 --> 00:11:24,560 one of the biggest criticism against the 321 00:11:29,269 --> 00:11:27,040 pictures uh that's heflin took was his 322 00:11:32,069 --> 00:11:29,279 last photograph which doesn't show 323 00:11:34,150 --> 00:11:32,079 an object but it shows a smoke ring 324 00:11:37,190 --> 00:11:34,160 that shows the sky 325 00:11:39,030 --> 00:11:37,200 and he had said that the 326 00:11:40,230 --> 00:11:39,040 smoke ring picture had been taken i 327 00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:40,240 think within a minute of the 328 00:11:43,990 --> 00:11:42,480 disappearance of this object 329 00:11:45,670 --> 00:11:44,000 and he thought the smoke ring either 330 00:11:47,829 --> 00:11:45,680 made by the object at all i'm not sure 331 00:11:49,670 --> 00:11:47,839 if he was positive about that 332 00:11:50,949 --> 00:11:49,680 but at any rate he took a picture of the 333 00:11:52,630 --> 00:11:50,959 smoke ring and when he took a picture of 334 00:11:55,350 --> 00:11:52,640 the smoke ring you can see a lot of 335 00:11:57,190 --> 00:11:55,360 structure of clouds in the sky 336 00:12:00,389 --> 00:11:57,200 in his three 337 00:12:02,389 --> 00:12:00,399 photos of the objects itself 338 00:12:03,590 --> 00:12:02,399 you couldn't see any structure in the 339 00:12:05,829 --> 00:12:03,600 sky 340 00:12:08,069 --> 00:12:05,839 and so there was a question 341 00:12:10,550 --> 00:12:08,079 did he really take four photos in a 342 00:12:12,230 --> 00:12:10,560 short period of time or it was a period 343 00:12:14,470 --> 00:12:12,240 of time when he could be 344 00:12:17,990 --> 00:12:14,480 creating a hoax smoke ring or something 345 00:12:20,949 --> 00:12:18,000 to back up his story about ufo 346 00:12:22,949 --> 00:12:20,959 and that was a sore point for a long 347 00:12:24,790 --> 00:12:22,959 time why isn't there structure in the 348 00:12:26,710 --> 00:12:24,800 sky in the first three pictures if 349 00:12:29,190 --> 00:12:26,720 there's structure in the fourth 350 00:12:30,470 --> 00:12:29,200 it turned out the answer was that 351 00:12:33,509 --> 00:12:30,480 the camera 352 00:12:35,190 --> 00:12:33,519 had automatic exposure control 353 00:12:38,389 --> 00:12:35,200 when it was in the truck 354 00:12:40,069 --> 00:12:38,399 it was not receiving as much light as it 355 00:12:41,990 --> 00:12:40,079 was when it was outside the truck to 356 00:12:44,550 --> 00:12:42,000 take the fish he took the first three 357 00:12:45,829 --> 00:12:44,560 pictures when he was inside the truck 358 00:12:47,750 --> 00:12:45,839 in the fourth picture when he was 359 00:12:51,750 --> 00:12:47,760 outside the truck 360 00:12:53,590 --> 00:12:51,760 exposure meter was giving the correct 361 00:12:55,190 --> 00:12:53,600 exposure for the sky 362 00:12:56,230 --> 00:12:55,200 resiliently and then you can see 363 00:12:57,750 --> 00:12:56,240 structure 364 00:12:59,190 --> 00:12:57,760 whereas when it was inside the truck the 365 00:13:01,670 --> 00:12:59,200 exposure meter wasn't getting enough 366 00:13:02,389 --> 00:13:01,680 light so it was opening up the lens more 367 00:13:05,509 --> 00:13:02,399 or 368 00:13:08,069 --> 00:13:05,519 allowing a longer time of exposure 369 00:13:10,069 --> 00:13:08,079 exposing the film more and that tended 370 00:13:12,230 --> 00:13:10,079 to 371 00:13:14,310 --> 00:13:12,240 lose contrast 372 00:13:15,430 --> 00:13:14,320 the sky structure was 373 00:13:17,910 --> 00:13:15,440 too bright 374 00:13:20,629 --> 00:13:17,920 to be accurately photographed 375 00:13:22,069 --> 00:13:20,639 so it turned out that uh 376 00:13:24,069 --> 00:13:22,079 with this more 377 00:13:26,790 --> 00:13:24,079 recent analysis that 378 00:13:28,870 --> 00:13:26,800 argument was verified and and so 379 00:13:30,710 --> 00:13:28,880 now nobody can claim that half of them 380 00:13:31,829 --> 00:13:30,720 took three photos of a model and then 381 00:13:37,110 --> 00:13:31,839 took a 382 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,750 they can 383 00:13:43,990 --> 00:13:42,310 argue that 384 00:13:46,629 --> 00:13:44,000 he took these four photos within a 385 00:13:48,230 --> 00:13:46,639 matter of minutes at the most yep that's 386 00:13:50,310 --> 00:13:48,240 an interesting one now i know you did a 387 00:13:52,389 --> 00:13:50,320 bit of work on the phoenix lights can 388 00:13:53,990 --> 00:13:52,399 you talk about that well a year after 389 00:13:55,590 --> 00:13:54,000 the phoenix whites 390 00:13:57,829 --> 00:13:55,600 case occurred you're talking about march 391 00:14:00,069 --> 00:13:57,839 13th 1997 right 392 00:14:03,030 --> 00:14:00,079 i might point out that there have been 393 00:14:05,910 --> 00:14:03,040 quote phoenix lights unquote free 394 00:14:08,069 --> 00:14:05,920 many times many times before that in the 395 00:14:09,750 --> 00:14:08,079 previous months and years 396 00:14:11,509 --> 00:14:09,760 many times since then 397 00:14:14,389 --> 00:14:11,519 and um 398 00:14:17,750 --> 00:14:14,399 all in april all in that phoenix valley 399 00:14:21,030 --> 00:14:17,760 right there oh yeah a lot of people 400 00:14:23,829 --> 00:14:21,040 in phoenix area and 401 00:14:25,189 --> 00:14:23,839 west and the north and so on of the city 402 00:14:26,870 --> 00:14:25,199 of phoenix 403 00:14:31,670 --> 00:14:26,880 anyway 404 00:14:39,110 --> 00:14:35,670 i was asked by one of the 405 00:14:41,269 --> 00:14:39,120 video witnesses lin ketai 406 00:14:42,550 --> 00:14:41,279 to evaluate her videos in the other 407 00:14:44,389 --> 00:14:42,560 videos 408 00:14:46,629 --> 00:14:44,399 from our 13th 409 00:14:49,269 --> 00:14:46,639 and also from other years which i had 410 00:14:50,790 --> 00:14:49,279 not heard about at that time when she 411 00:14:54,470 --> 00:14:50,800 contacted me 412 00:14:57,110 --> 00:14:54,480 she told me about january in 1998 and 413 00:14:58,870 --> 00:14:57,120 some other dates at which there had been 414 00:15:01,670 --> 00:14:58,880 like she said they look exactly the same 415 00:15:02,949 --> 00:15:01,680 as they saw on march 13th 416 00:15:04,870 --> 00:15:02,959 and so 417 00:15:06,790 --> 00:15:04,880 she sent me a bunch of videotapes and i 418 00:15:08,230 --> 00:15:06,800 started an analysis and 419 00:15:11,110 --> 00:15:08,240 i was before 420 00:15:13,509 --> 00:15:11,120 for very other other reasons 421 00:15:14,470 --> 00:15:13,519 able to get to the phoenix area and 422 00:15:16,230 --> 00:15:14,480 actually 423 00:15:18,230 --> 00:15:16,240 go to the locations 424 00:15:20,470 --> 00:15:18,240 where the videos were taken 425 00:15:23,030 --> 00:15:20,480 take background and see 426 00:15:25,430 --> 00:15:23,040 the scenery videos you might say 427 00:15:28,389 --> 00:15:25,440 to uh in order to carry out what's known 428 00:15:30,550 --> 00:15:28,399 as a triangulation from each point from 429 00:15:32,949 --> 00:15:30,560 each location of a video camera 430 00:15:34,470 --> 00:15:32,959 i would uh project the sighting line off 431 00:15:37,829 --> 00:15:34,480 into the distance 432 00:15:40,389 --> 00:15:37,839 and then see if from two locations if 433 00:15:42,870 --> 00:15:40,399 the setting lines would meet somewhere 434 00:15:43,910 --> 00:15:42,880 then that would imply that the object 435 00:15:45,430 --> 00:15:43,920 was 436 00:15:47,590 --> 00:15:45,440 the lights were 437 00:15:49,030 --> 00:15:47,600 where the fighting lines met and i did 438 00:15:51,430 --> 00:15:49,040 this for 439 00:15:54,150 --> 00:15:51,440 the famous kristen arc that everybody 440 00:15:57,350 --> 00:15:54,160 ever sees on tv and so on they show over 441 00:16:00,310 --> 00:15:57,360 and over again an arc of lights 442 00:16:02,550 --> 00:16:00,320 taken by mike kristen and 443 00:16:04,069 --> 00:16:02,560 lynn katay had a video that showed free 444 00:16:05,590 --> 00:16:04,079 lights 445 00:16:08,310 --> 00:16:05,600 and uh 446 00:16:11,430 --> 00:16:08,320 chuck charles raritan 447 00:16:13,990 --> 00:16:11,440 who was about 30 miles east of 448 00:16:16,389 --> 00:16:14,000 lynn ketai 449 00:16:17,430 --> 00:16:16,399 also saw the same christian arc but he 450 00:16:19,350 --> 00:16:17,440 saw from a slightly different 451 00:16:21,030 --> 00:16:19,360 perspective 452 00:16:23,749 --> 00:16:21,040 and 453 00:16:26,150 --> 00:16:23,759 i was able to demonstrate that she took 454 00:16:27,990 --> 00:16:26,160 kristin's sliding line and projected it 455 00:16:28,949 --> 00:16:28,000 and chuck right inside the line rejected 456 00:16:30,710 --> 00:16:28,959 it 457 00:16:34,550 --> 00:16:30,720 the lights were 458 00:16:37,189 --> 00:16:34,560 50 or 60 miles or 70 to 80 miles 459 00:16:38,710 --> 00:16:37,199 south southwest of phoenix 460 00:16:40,710 --> 00:16:38,720 the witnesses had all said that lights 461 00:16:43,910 --> 00:16:40,720 were over phoenix 462 00:16:45,430 --> 00:16:43,920 and that they never moved 463 00:16:47,430 --> 00:16:45,440 now i'm talking about lights that were 464 00:16:49,189 --> 00:16:47,440 taken that were videotaped at 10 o'clock 465 00:16:50,470 --> 00:16:49,199 at night 466 00:16:53,509 --> 00:16:50,480 there's a 467 00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:53,519 the sightings at 8 30 468 00:16:59,829 --> 00:16:57,360 uh while we say between 8 and 9 00 p.m 469 00:17:01,829 --> 00:16:59,839 and in particular around 8 30 when some 470 00:17:03,189 --> 00:17:01,839 object appears to have traveled over 471 00:17:05,270 --> 00:17:03,199 phoenix 472 00:17:07,350 --> 00:17:05,280 that's an independent uh 473 00:17:10,630 --> 00:17:07,360 not not what i'm talking about 474 00:17:12,789 --> 00:17:10,640 i was asked to enter analyze 475 00:17:13,990 --> 00:17:12,799 videos were taken 476 00:17:16,789 --> 00:17:14,000 and 477 00:17:19,590 --> 00:17:16,799 the videos on march 13th were taken 478 00:17:20,390 --> 00:17:19,600 around 10 o'clock 479 00:17:21,829 --> 00:17:20,400 and 480 00:17:26,390 --> 00:17:21,839 so anyway 481 00:17:29,590 --> 00:17:28,309 images of the 482 00:17:31,669 --> 00:17:29,600 videos 483 00:17:33,430 --> 00:17:31,679 that these lights were actually dropping 484 00:17:35,510 --> 00:17:33,440 downwards 485 00:17:37,590 --> 00:17:35,520 and moving a bit to the left 486 00:17:39,029 --> 00:17:37,600 the sighting line was to the south or 487 00:17:40,630 --> 00:17:39,039 southwest 488 00:17:42,310 --> 00:17:40,640 and 489 00:17:44,950 --> 00:17:42,320 i learned from a meteorologist that the 490 00:17:47,350 --> 00:17:44,960 general air mass was moving from right 491 00:17:49,190 --> 00:17:47,360 from west towards the east 492 00:17:51,029 --> 00:17:49,200 if you're looking south and you see 493 00:17:52,549 --> 00:17:51,039 something moving from west to east and 494 00:17:54,390 --> 00:17:52,559 it's moving from right to left in front 495 00:17:56,390 --> 00:17:54,400 of your field of view 496 00:17:57,990 --> 00:17:56,400 and that's what these uh lights do they 497 00:18:03,029 --> 00:17:58,000 drop down there's a move 498 00:18:04,950 --> 00:18:03,039 move to the left uh a rate it's not 499 00:18:05,750 --> 00:18:04,960 it's compatible with the idea that they 500 00:18:07,110 --> 00:18:05,760 were 501 00:18:08,390 --> 00:18:07,120 um 502 00:18:11,750 --> 00:18:08,400 players 503 00:18:14,150 --> 00:18:11,760 very bright l.u luu2 504 00:18:17,430 --> 00:18:14,160 military illumination flares 505 00:18:18,630 --> 00:18:17,440 which are dropped and then they deploy a 506 00:18:20,390 --> 00:18:18,640 parachute 507 00:18:21,590 --> 00:18:20,400 and heat from the 508 00:18:23,750 --> 00:18:21,600 player 509 00:18:26,390 --> 00:18:23,760 keeps the parachute aloft for a long 510 00:18:28,230 --> 00:18:26,400 time or makes it very drop very slowly i 511 00:18:31,830 --> 00:18:28,240 should say 512 00:18:36,150 --> 00:18:31,840 so anyway that was my input to the uh 513 00:18:38,549 --> 00:18:36,160 uh phoenix light situation was to uh 514 00:18:40,710 --> 00:18:38,559 show the videos pro the videos taking a 515 00:18:43,270 --> 00:18:40,720 ten o'clock probably were not 516 00:18:44,870 --> 00:18:43,280 related to the uh 517 00:18:45,830 --> 00:18:44,880 whatever was the floor over phoenix at 8 518 00:18:47,990 --> 00:18:45,840 30. 519 00:18:49,830 --> 00:18:48,000 but unfortunately 520 00:18:53,669 --> 00:18:49,840 there's nothing there's supposedly one 521 00:18:55,669 --> 00:18:53,679 video of that which is not very good 522 00:18:57,669 --> 00:18:55,679 mostly it was just witnesses seeing that 523 00:18:59,750 --> 00:18:57,679 thing go over yeah 524 00:19:01,510 --> 00:18:59,760 and there were enough of them 525 00:19:04,150 --> 00:19:01,520 now there were 526 00:19:06,549 --> 00:19:04,160 when i began my investigation of the 527 00:19:08,150 --> 00:19:06,559 so-called phoenix lights 528 00:19:10,950 --> 00:19:08,160 the videos 529 00:19:11,990 --> 00:19:10,960 i began by analyzing not in the march 530 00:19:13,830 --> 00:19:12,000 13th 531 00:19:16,310 --> 00:19:13,840 1997 532 00:19:19,830 --> 00:19:16,320 but in videos taken in by the same 533 00:19:22,710 --> 00:19:19,840 witnesses on january 14 1998 534 00:19:25,750 --> 00:19:22,720 in january 14 1998 535 00:19:28,070 --> 00:19:25,760 they had a line of 536 00:19:30,230 --> 00:19:28,080 a video show a line 537 00:19:31,430 --> 00:19:30,240 of whites 538 00:19:33,830 --> 00:19:31,440 almost 539 00:19:35,909 --> 00:19:33,840 not not exactly equal but pretty close 540 00:19:38,470 --> 00:19:35,919 to equal spacing 541 00:19:40,630 --> 00:19:38,480 and if you set a ruler on your tv screen 542 00:19:41,990 --> 00:19:40,640 while you play this video 543 00:19:43,909 --> 00:19:42,000 and look at the line of light just 544 00:19:49,430 --> 00:19:43,919 perfectly straight 545 00:19:52,950 --> 00:19:50,549 but when you 546 00:19:55,029 --> 00:19:52,960 plot the triangle the 547 00:19:57,029 --> 00:19:55,039 line of lights from different 548 00:19:57,990 --> 00:19:57,039 perspectives 549 00:20:01,669 --> 00:19:58,000 uh 550 00:20:01,679 --> 00:20:06,470 you can't see from just one perspective 551 00:20:11,270 --> 00:20:08,230 um 552 00:20:13,830 --> 00:20:11,280 i analyzed lights from january 14th 1998 553 00:20:15,590 --> 00:20:13,840 and uh concluded they too were 554 00:20:17,590 --> 00:20:15,600 70 or so miles 555 00:20:19,669 --> 00:20:17,600 southwest of phoenix now what's uh what 556 00:20:22,150 --> 00:20:19,679 is southwest of phoenix the barrie 557 00:20:23,110 --> 00:20:22,160 goldwater training range 558 00:20:24,230 --> 00:20:23,120 where 559 00:20:25,990 --> 00:20:24,240 the 560 00:20:28,149 --> 00:20:26,000 military drops players as part of 561 00:20:30,230 --> 00:20:28,159 military exercises 562 00:20:31,350 --> 00:20:30,240 and 563 00:20:38,390 --> 00:20:31,360 we were 564 00:20:43,990 --> 00:20:41,350 the maryland national guard 565 00:20:47,830 --> 00:20:45,669 using the 566 00:20:50,310 --> 00:20:47,840 goldwater training range to drop flares 567 00:20:52,149 --> 00:20:50,320 to high altitude 568 00:20:55,669 --> 00:20:52,159 so this is all stuff that's on my 569 00:20:57,590 --> 00:20:55,679 website for people who are interested in 570 00:21:02,630 --> 00:20:57,600 knowing what 571 00:21:04,470 --> 00:21:02,640 about those videos 572 00:21:07,830 --> 00:21:04,480 well while you just mentioned that why 573 00:21:10,950 --> 00:21:07,840 don't you give out your website address 574 00:21:14,950 --> 00:21:10,960 okay s w dot 575 00:21:17,350 --> 00:21:14,960 b r u m a c s brewmack 576 00:21:19,110 --> 00:21:17,360 dot eight k 577 00:21:20,310 --> 00:21:19,120 number eight letter k 578 00:21:24,230 --> 00:21:20,320 dot com 579 00:21:28,390 --> 00:21:25,909 all right and i'll i'll put that under 580 00:21:31,669 --> 00:21:28,400 this podcast as well can you think of a 581 00:21:33,669 --> 00:21:31,679 situation where there was uh looked like 582 00:21:36,310 --> 00:21:33,679 pretty solid evidence for a long time 583 00:21:38,149 --> 00:21:36,320 and you figured out that it was a hoax 584 00:21:40,510 --> 00:21:38,159 well yeah 585 00:21:43,510 --> 00:21:40,520 there was august 6 586 00:21:44,549 --> 00:21:43,520 1996 i think 587 00:21:47,350 --> 00:21:44,559 video 588 00:21:49,029 --> 00:21:47,360 from mexico city which looked very good 589 00:21:50,310 --> 00:21:49,039 as 590 00:21:51,590 --> 00:21:50,320 anybody who's seen in that video a 591 00:21:52,789 --> 00:21:51,600 number of times would recognize it from 592 00:21:55,510 --> 00:21:52,799 the description 593 00:21:57,510 --> 00:21:55,520 you saw you see uh building off in the 594 00:22:00,070 --> 00:21:57,520 distance a big high-rise apartment 595 00:22:01,909 --> 00:22:00,080 building and the things kind of floating 596 00:22:04,470 --> 00:22:01,919 at the left edge of this building you 597 00:22:06,710 --> 00:22:04,480 see this circular thing rotating and 598 00:22:08,390 --> 00:22:06,720 wobbling right and then it starts to 599 00:22:10,070 --> 00:22:08,400 move towards the building and disappears 600 00:22:12,310 --> 00:22:10,080 for a period of time behind the building 601 00:22:14,710 --> 00:22:12,320 supposedly and reappears up above the 602 00:22:16,390 --> 00:22:14,720 building travels along to the right it's 603 00:22:17,990 --> 00:22:16,400 always moving to the right 604 00:22:19,510 --> 00:22:18,000 travels to the right 605 00:22:23,029 --> 00:22:19,520 and 606 00:22:24,390 --> 00:22:23,039 correctly 607 00:22:25,750 --> 00:22:24,400 and 608 00:22:27,430 --> 00:22:25,760 i thought that was pretty interesting i 609 00:22:29,350 --> 00:22:27,440 thought there might be some 610 00:22:31,110 --> 00:22:29,360 physics related to the propulsion of 611 00:22:33,830 --> 00:22:31,120 this object 612 00:22:35,830 --> 00:22:33,840 based on the wobbling and rotation 613 00:22:37,510 --> 00:22:35,840 but there was another guy who was also 614 00:22:41,669 --> 00:22:37,520 working on this case 615 00:22:46,070 --> 00:22:45,110 and he had discovered something funny 616 00:22:49,590 --> 00:22:46,080 that 617 00:22:53,110 --> 00:22:49,600 he did it on a statistical basis by 618 00:22:55,029 --> 00:22:53,120 analyzing each frame of the video 619 00:22:57,430 --> 00:22:55,039 and um 620 00:22:58,230 --> 00:22:57,440 turned out that the 621 00:23:00,549 --> 00:22:58,240 as 622 00:23:02,310 --> 00:23:00,559 the camera wobble occur the whole the 623 00:23:06,630 --> 00:23:02,320 camera 624 00:23:08,870 --> 00:23:06,640 supposedly was looking at this scene 625 00:23:10,710 --> 00:23:08,880 from another apartment house 626 00:23:12,470 --> 00:23:10,720 or an office building 627 00:23:14,470 --> 00:23:12,480 and it was being held by hand it was 628 00:23:16,070 --> 00:23:14,480 wobbling around 629 00:23:18,149 --> 00:23:16,080 and he found that on a sort of on a 630 00:23:19,510 --> 00:23:18,159 statistical basis 631 00:23:20,710 --> 00:23:19,520 the edge of the building would get 632 00:23:22,950 --> 00:23:20,720 smeared 633 00:23:25,750 --> 00:23:22,960 by the hands of vibration but the edges 634 00:23:28,310 --> 00:23:25,760 of the ufo did not 635 00:23:30,950 --> 00:23:28,320 and then i found two frames 636 00:23:33,830 --> 00:23:30,960 that i have posted on my website 637 00:23:36,149 --> 00:23:33,840 two frames that clearly show what i call 638 00:23:37,830 --> 00:23:36,159 fingerprints of a hoax 639 00:23:39,669 --> 00:23:37,840 where the 640 00:23:42,390 --> 00:23:39,679 camera moved enough we know the 641 00:23:44,310 --> 00:23:42,400 buildings do not move 642 00:23:45,909 --> 00:23:44,320 i mean that's for a fundamental 643 00:23:48,470 --> 00:23:45,919 assumption here 644 00:23:50,549 --> 00:23:48,480 and yet the edges of the building are so 645 00:23:53,350 --> 00:23:50,559 smeared in the vertical direction the 646 00:23:54,710 --> 00:23:53,360 horizontal edge is so smeared i just say 647 00:23:56,870 --> 00:23:54,720 the horizontal edge of the top of the 648 00:23:59,029 --> 00:23:56,880 building is so smeared 649 00:24:00,870 --> 00:23:59,039 by vertical motion 650 00:24:01,990 --> 00:24:00,880 that it's hard to 651 00:24:03,590 --> 00:24:02,000 to 652 00:24:05,110 --> 00:24:03,600 make out where the edge is if there are 653 00:24:08,070 --> 00:24:05,120 little flags 654 00:24:09,750 --> 00:24:08,080 or i was told there were wind socks 655 00:24:11,430 --> 00:24:09,760 on the top of the building 656 00:24:13,669 --> 00:24:11,440 you can see them in the steady frames 657 00:24:15,029 --> 00:24:13,679 but this couple of really super blurred 658 00:24:16,470 --> 00:24:15,039 frames the 659 00:24:19,029 --> 00:24:16,480 blurring is so much that you can't even 660 00:24:21,350 --> 00:24:19,039 see the windsock it's just 661 00:24:24,149 --> 00:24:21,360 blurred out you might say 662 00:24:26,149 --> 00:24:24,159 but the edge of the ufo doesn't change 663 00:24:28,310 --> 00:24:26,159 it's just as sharp as the ones as the 664 00:24:31,110 --> 00:24:28,320 frames where there's no blurring 665 00:24:32,789 --> 00:24:31,120 there's two frames for comparison here 666 00:24:35,110 --> 00:24:32,799 where um 667 00:24:38,070 --> 00:24:35,120 the edge the building edge is extremely 668 00:24:40,630 --> 00:24:38,080 blurred the ufo edge is not 669 00:24:41,830 --> 00:24:40,640 and this um semi-like the ufo image was 670 00:24:43,669 --> 00:24:41,840 pasted in 671 00:24:46,470 --> 00:24:43,679 that that seems like that would be very 672 00:24:49,430 --> 00:24:46,480 difficult to do but obviously um with 673 00:24:51,830 --> 00:24:49,440 all the software and stuff out there 674 00:24:54,630 --> 00:24:51,840 when that when our video came out 675 00:24:57,990 --> 00:24:54,640 i was interacting with a guy in 676 00:24:59,909 --> 00:24:58,000 hollywood who was making uh 677 00:25:01,190 --> 00:24:59,919 tv shows and stuff and he had some 678 00:25:03,510 --> 00:25:01,200 people he told me 679 00:25:05,110 --> 00:25:03,520 had some people say well say okay if 680 00:25:06,310 --> 00:25:05,120 you're going to do this yourself what 681 00:25:08,549 --> 00:25:06,320 are you going to do 682 00:25:10,630 --> 00:25:08,559 i got several 683 00:25:12,789 --> 00:25:10,640 video 684 00:25:14,549 --> 00:25:12,799 from different people who took on the 685 00:25:15,750 --> 00:25:14,559 problem of creating a video that looked 686 00:25:18,390 --> 00:25:15,760 like that 687 00:25:19,510 --> 00:25:18,400 and none of them looked exactly the same 688 00:25:20,789 --> 00:25:19,520 but they all had the same 689 00:25:22,630 --> 00:25:20,799 characteristics 690 00:25:24,149 --> 00:25:22,640 of an object rotating and wobbling and 691 00:25:26,149 --> 00:25:24,159 then going behind a building and coming 692 00:25:28,470 --> 00:25:26,159 up above and then going off into the 693 00:25:29,669 --> 00:25:28,480 distance 694 00:25:31,350 --> 00:25:29,679 and 695 00:25:34,390 --> 00:25:31,360 apparently for somebody who was really 696 00:25:36,789 --> 00:25:34,400 into cgi computer-generated imagery it 697 00:25:37,510 --> 00:25:36,799 was not a very difficult task 698 00:25:39,590 --> 00:25:37,520 and 699 00:25:42,789 --> 00:25:39,600 one big problem has to go with the 700 00:25:44,470 --> 00:25:42,799 circumstantial evidence unlike the 701 00:25:45,430 --> 00:25:44,480 internal case where you had lady the 702 00:25:47,190 --> 00:25:45,440 people 703 00:25:48,710 --> 00:25:47,200 were the witnesses of the photographer 704 00:25:51,590 --> 00:25:48,720 available to talk to 705 00:25:53,110 --> 00:25:51,600 for years and years afterwards 706 00:25:55,269 --> 00:25:53,120 in this 707 00:25:57,830 --> 00:25:55,279 mexico city case 708 00:26:00,470 --> 00:25:57,840 it was a sent the video was sent to 709 00:26:01,669 --> 00:26:00,480 jamie marcea who was a 710 00:26:04,070 --> 00:26:01,679 um 711 00:26:05,750 --> 00:26:04,080 tv commentator there who's done a lot of 712 00:26:07,990 --> 00:26:05,760 your work on ufos 713 00:26:10,789 --> 00:26:08,000 and uh 714 00:26:12,310 --> 00:26:10,799 it was anonymous the person said that he 715 00:26:15,269 --> 00:26:12,320 was in the country illegally and didn't 716 00:26:17,029 --> 00:26:15,279 want to reveal his name 717 00:26:18,470 --> 00:26:17,039 but with an 718 00:26:19,669 --> 00:26:18,480 anonymous witness there's not much you 719 00:26:22,630 --> 00:26:19,679 can do so 720 00:26:25,269 --> 00:26:22,640 the video sort of hangs out there in 721 00:26:26,789 --> 00:26:25,279 free space you might say 722 00:26:28,870 --> 00:26:26,799 except for those 723 00:26:30,789 --> 00:26:28,880 except for that problem with the uh 724 00:26:32,470 --> 00:26:30,799 ver the smear of the buildings being 725 00:26:33,430 --> 00:26:32,480 greater than the smear of the ufo image 726 00:26:35,190 --> 00:26:33,440 itself 727 00:26:37,909 --> 00:26:35,200 and by the way both smears should be the 728 00:26:41,510 --> 00:26:37,919 same there's a real image it's a real 729 00:26:45,269 --> 00:26:42,630 except for that this would have been 730 00:26:46,470 --> 00:26:45,279 treated as a monumental ufo 731 00:26:47,990 --> 00:26:46,480 video 732 00:26:51,110 --> 00:26:48,000 but fortunately 733 00:26:53,350 --> 00:26:51,120 saneo discovered this problem with it 734 00:26:54,789 --> 00:26:53,360 before everybody went super public and 735 00:26:57,029 --> 00:26:54,799 committed themselves to say well it's 736 00:26:57,990 --> 00:26:57,039 for real tons of videos of course on the 737 00:26:59,510 --> 00:26:58,000 internet 738 00:27:01,350 --> 00:26:59,520 in the years since 739 00:27:03,029 --> 00:27:01,360 and i don't know how many million there 740 00:27:03,909 --> 00:27:03,039 might be now 741 00:27:07,029 --> 00:27:03,919 but 742 00:27:13,269 --> 00:27:10,070 detail and quality i know the one that 743 00:27:15,269 --> 00:27:13,279 has the most hits on it on youtube 744 00:27:17,110 --> 00:27:15,279 is the one that was proven to be a hoax 745 00:27:19,350 --> 00:27:17,120 and that's the one in haiti that was 746 00:27:21,510 --> 00:27:19,360 totally a hoax 747 00:27:23,750 --> 00:27:21,520 very very well done i mean these people 748 00:27:25,029 --> 00:27:23,760 are very the people that really go 749 00:27:27,029 --> 00:27:25,039 through all the trouble seem to do a 750 00:27:28,230 --> 00:27:27,039 pretty good job for the most part that 751 00:27:32,070 --> 00:27:28,240 was a video 752 00:27:34,630 --> 00:27:32,080 um 753 00:27:36,470 --> 00:27:34,640 there was an analysis of it 754 00:27:38,549 --> 00:27:36,480 and i think there's something like 16 755 00:27:40,230 --> 00:27:38,559 million downloads of it it's something i 756 00:27:43,029 --> 00:27:40,240 probably saw but i've seen so many 757 00:27:46,070 --> 00:27:43,039 things sort of blur together yeah 758 00:27:49,029 --> 00:27:46,080 now have you looked into the one that 759 00:27:50,390 --> 00:27:49,039 looked really good for a while and uh i 760 00:27:52,710 --> 00:27:50,400 haven't really heard anything about it 761 00:27:55,190 --> 00:27:52,720 but it was the dome of israel if you 762 00:27:56,549 --> 00:27:55,200 looked into that one yeah well there are 763 00:27:58,870 --> 00:27:56,559 a number of 764 00:28:00,310 --> 00:27:58,880 commentaries on that and that's where 765 00:28:01,909 --> 00:28:00,320 this 766 00:28:04,149 --> 00:28:01,919 video shows a bright light dropping down 767 00:28:06,710 --> 00:28:04,159 towards the delta the rock 768 00:28:08,470 --> 00:28:06,720 and uh it sits there and also there's a 769 00:28:09,750 --> 00:28:08,480 very bright flash and then it goes 770 00:28:12,070 --> 00:28:09,760 zooming up 771 00:28:13,830 --> 00:28:12,080 and supposedly so the witnesses saw red 772 00:28:15,269 --> 00:28:13,840 lights up in the sky 773 00:28:19,350 --> 00:28:15,279 i think as they looked up after the 774 00:28:21,750 --> 00:28:19,360 thing zoomed away whatever and uh 775 00:28:24,230 --> 00:28:21,760 there were i think four or four videos 776 00:28:26,389 --> 00:28:24,240 associated with that that's right and 777 00:28:27,269 --> 00:28:26,399 one of them the second or third to come 778 00:28:29,590 --> 00:28:27,279 out 779 00:28:30,549 --> 00:28:29,600 was absolutely concretely proven to be a 780 00:28:32,389 --> 00:28:30,559 hoax 781 00:28:34,950 --> 00:28:32,399 really there's no doubt about it because 782 00:28:37,110 --> 00:28:34,960 it was a photograph of the scene that 783 00:28:39,110 --> 00:28:37,120 was used for the camera shake to make it 784 00:28:41,269 --> 00:28:39,120 look as if the camera was photographing 785 00:28:42,389 --> 00:28:41,279 the scene but as time went on as i 786 00:28:44,710 --> 00:28:42,399 recall 787 00:28:46,389 --> 00:28:44,720 the lights the lights in the scene never 788 00:28:48,870 --> 00:28:46,399 changed 789 00:28:51,110 --> 00:28:48,880 like the ufo imagery was 790 00:28:52,789 --> 00:28:51,120 superimposed on 791 00:28:54,870 --> 00:28:52,799 um 792 00:28:57,269 --> 00:28:54,880 they had taken a photograph 793 00:28:58,710 --> 00:28:57,279 and used that as the background 794 00:29:00,789 --> 00:28:58,720 and then they 795 00:29:02,630 --> 00:29:00,799 put this ufo 796 00:29:04,310 --> 00:29:02,640 into the scene and then they after 797 00:29:06,149 --> 00:29:04,320 getting the composite and they started 798 00:29:08,149 --> 00:29:06,159 causing it to wiggle around either by 799 00:29:10,549 --> 00:29:08,159 photograph either by using a video 800 00:29:13,110 --> 00:29:10,559 camera to videotape a screen that was 801 00:29:15,909 --> 00:29:13,120 printed that was showing this video 802 00:29:17,750 --> 00:29:15,919 where they actually use a uh 803 00:29:18,710 --> 00:29:17,760 a program 804 00:29:23,350 --> 00:29:18,720 to 805 00:29:24,830 --> 00:29:23,360 forth up and down in a random manner 806 00:29:27,830 --> 00:29:24,840 that was one of the videos was 807 00:29:31,269 --> 00:29:27,840 absolutely proven to be a hoax 808 00:29:32,789 --> 00:29:31,279 uh and i think i i sort of lost interest 809 00:29:34,389 --> 00:29:32,799 and didn't really track it very closely 810 00:29:36,870 --> 00:29:34,399 after that but i think yeah basically 811 00:29:39,350 --> 00:29:36,880 it's considered to be a hoax now i would 812 00:29:41,430 --> 00:29:39,360 think that if one was a hoax and it just 813 00:29:42,710 --> 00:29:41,440 kind of gives them all away at the very 814 00:29:43,830 --> 00:29:42,720 least it's not something we spent a lot 815 00:29:45,830 --> 00:29:43,840 of time on 816 00:29:48,070 --> 00:29:45,840 there was a another problem with that 817 00:29:50,149 --> 00:29:48,080 was the lack of reaction of city 818 00:29:52,950 --> 00:29:50,159 officials shall we say 819 00:29:54,630 --> 00:29:52,960 i pointed out that when this 820 00:29:56,070 --> 00:29:54,640 uh well others have pointed out that if 821 00:29:57,430 --> 00:29:56,080 this thing had actually been a bright 822 00:29:59,350 --> 00:29:57,440 light to drop down into the dope in the 823 00:30:02,710 --> 00:29:59,360 rock which has got to be one of the most 824 00:30:04,630 --> 00:30:02,720 secure areas in the world right 825 00:30:08,310 --> 00:30:04,640 uh every other person in the street 826 00:30:10,870 --> 00:30:08,320 probably is a boss ad person or secret 827 00:30:12,870 --> 00:30:10,880 service or something like that 828 00:30:14,070 --> 00:30:12,880 keeping track of what 829 00:30:15,750 --> 00:30:14,080 even though it was 1 o'clock in the 830 00:30:18,710 --> 00:30:15,760 afternoon in the evening 1 o'clock in 831 00:30:21,669 --> 00:30:20,389 approximately 1 o'clock in the morning i 832 00:30:23,269 --> 00:30:21,679 believe 833 00:30:24,630 --> 00:30:23,279 there would have been tourists and other 834 00:30:26,870 --> 00:30:24,640 people there 835 00:30:29,110 --> 00:30:26,880 and this bright light the big bright 836 00:30:31,190 --> 00:30:29,120 flash that occurred 837 00:30:32,710 --> 00:30:31,200 uh is shown lighting up the buildings 838 00:30:34,630 --> 00:30:32,720 and so on 839 00:30:36,470 --> 00:30:34,640 and um 840 00:30:38,630 --> 00:30:36,480 if you've ever been in an electrical 841 00:30:40,389 --> 00:30:38,640 storm in a house when lightning and 842 00:30:42,070 --> 00:30:40,399 thunder going off 843 00:30:43,990 --> 00:30:42,080 you can be inside the house if the 844 00:30:45,510 --> 00:30:44,000 lightning flash occurs you see that 845 00:30:46,870 --> 00:30:45,520 inside the house even you're not looking 846 00:30:48,149 --> 00:30:46,880 out the window 847 00:30:49,590 --> 00:30:48,159 you know it's a flash of light there's 848 00:30:50,950 --> 00:30:49,600 so much light there's lighting up 849 00:30:53,909 --> 00:30:50,960 everything and light goes through 850 00:30:55,669 --> 00:30:53,919 windows and lights up rooms and so on 851 00:30:57,909 --> 00:30:55,679 well i would have expected 852 00:30:59,669 --> 00:30:57,919 that someone would have said hey 853 00:31:01,750 --> 00:30:59,679 what's that flash of light that we had 854 00:31:02,870 --> 00:31:01,760 last night 855 00:31:04,710 --> 00:31:02,880 good point 856 00:31:08,230 --> 00:31:04,720 yeah 857 00:31:11,190 --> 00:31:08,240 there was a lack of background now 858 00:31:12,710 --> 00:31:11,200 there's there was a so-called chad hoax 859 00:31:14,149 --> 00:31:12,720 or some guy by the name of chad 860 00:31:16,149 --> 00:31:14,159 supposedly took a picture of a thing 861 00:31:19,750 --> 00:31:16,159 that looked like 862 00:31:22,149 --> 00:31:19,760 very somewhat like a ceiling fan 863 00:31:23,750 --> 00:31:22,159 in the air he had a number of photos as 864 00:31:26,070 --> 00:31:23,760 opposed to the 865 00:31:28,310 --> 00:31:26,080 novel ufo had 866 00:31:30,710 --> 00:31:28,320 wires going upwards 867 00:31:32,549 --> 00:31:30,720 in a curvy manner 868 00:31:34,389 --> 00:31:32,559 like a vase 869 00:31:35,830 --> 00:31:34,399 i think i've seen that somewhere that 870 00:31:38,070 --> 00:31:35,840 sounds very fast 871 00:31:40,389 --> 00:31:38,080 four or five years ago 872 00:31:43,909 --> 00:31:40,399 first there was one one set of photos 873 00:31:45,909 --> 00:31:43,919 from one location in california i think 874 00:31:47,350 --> 00:31:45,919 then another location and another 875 00:31:48,549 --> 00:31:47,360 location 876 00:31:50,310 --> 00:31:48,559 and the 877 00:31:52,230 --> 00:31:50,320 shape of the object the structure of the 878 00:31:53,590 --> 00:31:52,240 object got more complicated as this went 879 00:31:56,230 --> 00:31:53,600 on 880 00:31:58,549 --> 00:31:56,240 then there was a 881 00:32:01,110 --> 00:31:58,559 a document supposedly a top secret 882 00:32:02,310 --> 00:32:01,120 project to reverse engineer 883 00:32:04,789 --> 00:32:02,320 a ufo 884 00:32:05,830 --> 00:32:04,799 that came out and that was also related 885 00:32:08,630 --> 00:32:05,840 to this 886 00:32:10,630 --> 00:32:08,640 i think the whole thing ended up being a 887 00:32:13,990 --> 00:32:10,640 publicity play for 888 00:32:17,590 --> 00:32:14,000 somebody trying to demonstrate how well 889 00:32:19,750 --> 00:32:17,600 he can make computer generated imagery 890 00:32:21,509 --> 00:32:19,760 but uh i'm not sure on that but again 891 00:32:23,430 --> 00:32:21,519 that's another thing where 892 00:32:24,230 --> 00:32:23,440 we never got to talk to the witnesses 893 00:32:26,389 --> 00:32:24,240 right 894 00:32:28,549 --> 00:32:26,399 can you think of a situation where you 895 00:32:30,950 --> 00:32:28,559 think it's very solid you know i know it 896 00:32:32,710 --> 00:32:30,960 must be hard to commit and say this does 897 00:32:34,870 --> 00:32:32,720 not appear to be a hoax you can't really 898 00:32:36,470 --> 00:32:34,880 go much further than that can you well 899 00:32:38,710 --> 00:32:36,480 you can say if it's got 900 00:32:40,950 --> 00:32:38,720 obvious characteristics 901 00:32:42,070 --> 00:32:40,960 um that 902 00:32:43,350 --> 00:32:42,080 that we might be able to say well it 903 00:32:44,149 --> 00:32:43,360 doesn't look like anything it was made 904 00:32:46,789 --> 00:32:44,159 here 905 00:32:48,230 --> 00:32:46,799 i could take the trent photo gas 906 00:32:49,669 --> 00:32:48,240 it's obviously not a bird or a plane or 907 00:32:52,389 --> 00:32:49,679 superman 908 00:32:54,549 --> 00:32:52,399 and uh 909 00:32:58,710 --> 00:32:54,559 so then what is it it is not a hoax it's 910 00:33:04,789 --> 00:33:01,750 another case that i worked on many years 911 00:33:06,310 --> 00:33:04,799 ago was a new zealand sighting 912 00:33:10,630 --> 00:33:06,320 from an airplane 913 00:33:12,149 --> 00:33:10,640 that occurred in december 31st 1978 914 00:33:13,830 --> 00:33:12,159 and 915 00:33:15,350 --> 00:33:13,840 that 916 00:33:17,750 --> 00:33:15,360 investigation 917 00:33:20,070 --> 00:33:17,760 lasted days months and years 918 00:33:21,990 --> 00:33:20,080 really but ultimately ended up proving 919 00:33:24,470 --> 00:33:22,000 that whatever there was video it was 920 00:33:26,310 --> 00:33:24,480 photographed i should say movie film 921 00:33:28,310 --> 00:33:26,320 that case was one of the most best 922 00:33:30,789 --> 00:33:28,320 documented cases ever 923 00:33:33,110 --> 00:33:30,799 with uh multiple witnesses including an 924 00:33:35,190 --> 00:33:33,120 aircraft airplane crew 925 00:33:36,710 --> 00:33:35,200 captain and co-pilot 926 00:33:38,630 --> 00:33:36,720 and a news crew that was on board the 927 00:33:40,710 --> 00:33:38,640 raid it on the airplane 928 00:33:41,830 --> 00:33:40,720 a reporter a cameraman and a sound 929 00:33:44,389 --> 00:33:41,840 recorder 930 00:33:46,470 --> 00:33:44,399 the cameraman got color movie film 931 00:33:49,669 --> 00:33:46,480 there was a ground radar and airplane 932 00:33:52,710 --> 00:33:49,679 radar involved so you had 933 00:33:55,029 --> 00:33:52,720 images captured on film and you had 934 00:33:57,909 --> 00:33:55,039 you had the wellington air traffic 935 00:33:59,190 --> 00:33:57,919 control center audio tape 936 00:34:00,950 --> 00:33:59,200 which 937 00:34:02,070 --> 00:34:00,960 provided a timeline for everything that 938 00:34:05,029 --> 00:34:02,080 happened 939 00:34:06,870 --> 00:34:05,039 and the reporter himself on the airplane 940 00:34:08,230 --> 00:34:06,880 had his own tape 941 00:34:09,510 --> 00:34:08,240 of things and 942 00:34:12,230 --> 00:34:09,520 these could be reasonably well 943 00:34:13,990 --> 00:34:12,240 correlated so 944 00:34:15,750 --> 00:34:14,000 there were 945 00:34:18,710 --> 00:34:15,760 a total of eight witnesses involved in 946 00:34:20,389 --> 00:34:18,720 that case as i recall 947 00:34:21,990 --> 00:34:20,399 that sounds pretty 948 00:34:24,790 --> 00:34:22,000 it 949 00:34:26,310 --> 00:34:24,800 required a lot of technical analysis 950 00:34:28,149 --> 00:34:26,320 a lot of 951 00:34:29,589 --> 00:34:28,159 interview interviewing and putting 952 00:34:31,349 --> 00:34:29,599 together a history of the whole thing 953 00:34:33,430 --> 00:34:31,359 and so on 954 00:34:36,310 --> 00:34:33,440 and i would say that that was a whatever 955 00:34:39,270 --> 00:34:36,320 was there was a real ufo 956 00:34:43,669 --> 00:34:39,280 whatever that means yeah 957 00:34:44,470 --> 00:34:43,679 now did you ever look into the mexico 958 00:34:47,669 --> 00:34:44,480 uh 959 00:34:49,669 --> 00:34:47,679 the air force in mexico when they filmed 960 00:34:51,909 --> 00:34:49,679 with infrared 961 00:34:54,149 --> 00:34:51,919 cameras those 962 00:34:56,069 --> 00:34:54,159 strangers you bring that up 963 00:34:58,390 --> 00:34:56,079 okay 964 00:35:00,390 --> 00:34:58,400 you often see in 965 00:35:02,390 --> 00:35:00,400 tv shows 966 00:35:04,470 --> 00:35:02,400 that are talking about ufos and they're 967 00:35:06,150 --> 00:35:04,480 showing one ufo image after another 968 00:35:07,750 --> 00:35:06,160 after another and so on and they'll show 969 00:35:13,910 --> 00:35:07,760 this 970 00:35:15,430 --> 00:35:13,920 air forces is march 2004 971 00:35:16,550 --> 00:35:15,440 it shows 972 00:35:19,030 --> 00:35:16,560 clouds 973 00:35:20,790 --> 00:35:19,040 going by from right to left 974 00:35:22,390 --> 00:35:20,800 and these very bright lights off in the 975 00:35:24,630 --> 00:35:22,400 distance appearing to go behind the 976 00:35:27,109 --> 00:35:24,640 clouds and come out pop from behind the 977 00:35:29,750 --> 00:35:27,119 clouds and so on 978 00:35:32,069 --> 00:35:29,760 and it's clear if you could speak 979 00:35:33,829 --> 00:35:32,079 spanish you'd know the guy was talking 980 00:35:35,030 --> 00:35:33,839 about seeing these lights out there and 981 00:35:36,630 --> 00:35:35,040 thinking they were traveling right along 982 00:35:38,470 --> 00:35:36,640 with them and they had 983 00:35:40,150 --> 00:35:38,480 12 i think it was 984 00:35:43,589 --> 00:35:40,160 ufo was traveling along with the 985 00:35:45,589 --> 00:35:43,599 airplane well yeah i did i did a study 986 00:35:47,030 --> 00:35:45,599 and it's probably the largest study ever 987 00:35:48,790 --> 00:35:47,040 published 988 00:35:52,470 --> 00:35:48,800 i've never seen anything written up by 989 00:35:55,910 --> 00:35:54,470 i know that narcap 990 00:35:58,470 --> 00:35:55,920 did some work on it but i don't know if 991 00:36:00,870 --> 00:35:58,480 they've ever published a report 992 00:36:03,270 --> 00:36:00,880 that was a strange case because what 993 00:36:05,030 --> 00:36:03,280 alerted them to pay any attention at all 994 00:36:08,470 --> 00:36:05,040 to what was going on 995 00:36:11,670 --> 00:36:08,480 was not the infrared but it was radar 996 00:36:13,670 --> 00:36:11,680 as you can imagine the yucatan peninsula 997 00:36:15,589 --> 00:36:13,680 shutting out to the right heading out to 998 00:36:18,069 --> 00:36:15,599 the east 999 00:36:20,470 --> 00:36:18,079 mexico city is off to your left 1000 00:36:22,150 --> 00:36:20,480 to the west of yucatan 1001 00:36:25,750 --> 00:36:22,160 and this airplane is flying along in the 1002 00:36:28,069 --> 00:36:25,760 southwest in the northwest direction 1003 00:36:29,910 --> 00:36:28,079 uh suddenly on their radar this is an 1004 00:36:30,950 --> 00:36:29,920 airplane which can do about 300 miles an 1005 00:36:33,750 --> 00:36:30,960 hour 1006 00:36:37,430 --> 00:36:33,760 uh 250 or something like that 1007 00:36:39,510 --> 00:36:37,440 it's on uh daily i suppose 1008 00:36:41,910 --> 00:36:39,520 periodic surveillance 1009 00:36:45,829 --> 00:36:41,920 for drug runners and 1010 00:36:48,710 --> 00:36:45,839 contraband aircraft and stuff like that 1011 00:36:50,310 --> 00:36:48,720 and they have a 1012 00:36:52,870 --> 00:36:50,320 camera that 1013 00:36:55,030 --> 00:36:52,880 in the belly of the airplane 1014 00:36:56,790 --> 00:36:55,040 that they can use uh 1015 00:36:58,790 --> 00:36:56,800 to pick up either 1016 00:37:01,430 --> 00:36:58,800 infrared or visible 1017 00:37:02,950 --> 00:37:01,440 imagery 1018 00:37:04,710 --> 00:37:02,960 and um 1019 00:37:05,829 --> 00:37:04,720 also they have the radar now the radar 1020 00:37:09,030 --> 00:37:05,839 tends to point in the downwards 1021 00:37:12,550 --> 00:37:09,040 direction because they're looking for 1022 00:37:14,630 --> 00:37:12,560 airplanes taking off or landing and 1023 00:37:16,470 --> 00:37:14,640 forbidden airfields as they're heading 1024 00:37:18,550 --> 00:37:16,480 south northwest over the 1025 00:37:20,069 --> 00:37:18,560 yucatan they start picking up this radar 1026 00:37:22,870 --> 00:37:20,079 target 1027 00:37:25,030 --> 00:37:22,880 the first thought was oh some airplane 1028 00:37:26,710 --> 00:37:25,040 is just taken off from a landing zone 1029 00:37:29,750 --> 00:37:26,720 down there 1030 00:37:31,270 --> 00:37:29,760 and uh we should follow it i guess 1031 00:37:33,349 --> 00:37:31,280 their assumption was it might be a drug 1032 00:37:34,870 --> 00:37:33,359 runner so anyway they turned their 1033 00:37:37,829 --> 00:37:34,880 aircraft a little bit 1034 00:37:39,349 --> 00:37:37,839 to go trail behind this thing and then 1035 00:37:41,589 --> 00:37:39,359 they start catching up with it and they 1036 00:37:43,270 --> 00:37:41,599 get to win in two miles so 1037 00:37:44,150 --> 00:37:43,280 they can't seem to get any closer than 1038 00:37:47,190 --> 00:37:44,160 that 1039 00:37:48,829 --> 00:37:47,200 it speeds up and then it maintains a 1040 00:37:51,430 --> 00:37:48,839 two mile 1041 00:37:55,589 --> 00:37:51,440 distance so 1042 00:37:57,190 --> 00:37:55,599 naturally once they detect it on radar 1043 00:37:59,270 --> 00:37:57,200 initially i think about five miles and 1044 00:38:00,790 --> 00:37:59,280 then they get closer to it so looking 1045 00:38:03,030 --> 00:38:00,800 out the windows thinking 1046 00:38:04,630 --> 00:38:03,040 we ought to be able to see this thing 1047 00:38:05,910 --> 00:38:04,640 you can see an airplane of five miles 1048 00:38:07,430 --> 00:38:05,920 you can see the airplane at four miles 1049 00:38:09,109 --> 00:38:07,440 you can see the three aims here they're 1050 00:38:13,990 --> 00:38:09,119 two miles 1051 00:38:16,230 --> 00:38:14,000 so why can't they see it 1052 00:38:19,190 --> 00:38:16,240 so they're looking and looking where 1053 00:38:21,270 --> 00:38:19,200 they're visible uh camera they're not 1054 00:38:22,310 --> 00:38:21,280 using the infrared yet they're using the 1055 00:38:24,790 --> 00:38:22,320 visible 1056 00:38:26,790 --> 00:38:24,800 and they track it for a while 1057 00:38:28,630 --> 00:38:26,800 then they switch to infrared 1058 00:38:30,630 --> 00:38:28,640 this is a special type of infrared known 1059 00:38:34,150 --> 00:38:30,640 as mid infrared 1060 00:38:36,150 --> 00:38:34,160 running three to five micron wavelength 1061 00:38:39,190 --> 00:38:36,160 visible light is a 1062 00:38:42,150 --> 00:38:39,200 seven tenths of a micron or less 1063 00:38:46,470 --> 00:38:44,630 heat that you feel for radiating bodies 1064 00:38:48,470 --> 00:38:46,480 typically is around 10 microns these are 1065 00:38:50,630 --> 00:38:48,480 the wavelengths i'm talking about 1066 00:38:51,670 --> 00:38:50,640 the thing about the mid infrared is if 1067 00:38:52,870 --> 00:38:51,680 you take a 1068 00:38:55,190 --> 00:38:52,880 photograph 1069 00:38:56,470 --> 00:38:55,200 with a mid infrared imager 1070 00:38:57,990 --> 00:38:56,480 you can see 1071 00:38:59,670 --> 00:38:58,000 structures such as what you would see 1072 00:39:02,230 --> 00:38:59,680 with the naked eye 1073 00:39:03,910 --> 00:39:02,240 but you can also see hot places that you 1074 00:39:06,710 --> 00:39:03,920 could only see with a 1075 00:39:08,630 --> 00:39:06,720 heat sensitive camera 1076 00:39:10,710 --> 00:39:08,640 so if you're looking with your naked eye 1077 00:39:12,310 --> 00:39:10,720 you can see the outline of the aircraft 1078 00:39:13,510 --> 00:39:12,320 if you're looking with this mid-infrared 1079 00:39:15,270 --> 00:39:13,520 you can see the outline of the aircraft 1080 00:39:16,550 --> 00:39:15,280 but you can also see the the heat trail 1081 00:39:19,510 --> 00:39:16,560 you can see the hot air coming out the 1082 00:39:21,270 --> 00:39:19,520 back you can see the hot engines right 1083 00:39:23,910 --> 00:39:21,280 so they start looking with an infrared 1084 00:39:25,510 --> 00:39:23,920 and they can't find it there either 1085 00:39:27,270 --> 00:39:25,520 they're traveling along for 10 minutes 1086 00:39:28,870 --> 00:39:27,280 behind this object and then they start 1087 00:39:30,790 --> 00:39:28,880 running out of fuel 1088 00:39:32,950 --> 00:39:30,800 so 1089 00:39:34,790 --> 00:39:32,960 unfortunately there was no ground radar 1090 00:39:36,870 --> 00:39:34,800 operating at the time 1091 00:39:38,870 --> 00:39:36,880 so there they were picking up on their 1092 00:39:41,349 --> 00:39:38,880 radar and picking it up on their 1093 00:39:42,950 --> 00:39:41,359 infrared 1094 00:39:44,069 --> 00:39:42,960 well i know i said they take that back 1095 00:39:47,349 --> 00:39:44,079 they did not pick it up on their 1096 00:39:48,230 --> 00:39:47,359 infrared they should have he would think 1097 00:39:51,589 --> 00:39:48,240 um 1098 00:39:53,109 --> 00:39:51,599 but they were scanning with the infrared 1099 00:39:54,390 --> 00:39:53,119 they're picking it up on radar they're 1100 00:39:55,750 --> 00:39:54,400 not seeing it visually they're not 1101 00:39:57,349 --> 00:39:55,760 seeing an infrared they didn't know what 1102 00:39:59,829 --> 00:39:57,359 it was 1103 00:40:02,069 --> 00:39:59,839 uh could have been a radar anomaly a 1104 00:40:05,510 --> 00:40:02,079 radar 1105 00:40:06,870 --> 00:40:05,520 never 1106 00:40:07,829 --> 00:40:06,880 had any problems with it before and he 1107 00:40:10,630 --> 00:40:07,839 didn't have any problems with it 1108 00:40:13,750 --> 00:40:12,470 they made a return to the right to head 1109 00:40:15,750 --> 00:40:13,760 east 1110 00:40:18,230 --> 00:40:15,760 after traveling for a distance over the 1111 00:40:19,430 --> 00:40:18,240 yucatan peninsula and heading northwest 1112 00:40:20,870 --> 00:40:19,440 they turned made a right turn to the 1113 00:40:21,910 --> 00:40:20,880 east 1114 00:40:23,910 --> 00:40:21,920 and 1115 00:40:25,030 --> 00:40:23,920 they were still tracking this thing on 1116 00:40:26,550 --> 00:40:25,040 radar 1117 00:40:29,190 --> 00:40:26,560 oddly enough 1118 00:40:31,670 --> 00:40:29,200 it sped up it increased its speed it was 1119 00:40:33,270 --> 00:40:31,680 continuing to continue its track toward 1120 00:40:34,790 --> 00:40:33,280 the northwest whereas the plane was now 1121 00:40:37,270 --> 00:40:34,800 heading east 1122 00:40:39,349 --> 00:40:37,280 it continued on its track northwest 1123 00:40:42,150 --> 00:40:39,359 at a higher speed 1124 00:40:44,150 --> 00:40:42,160 and finally disappeared about 40 miles 1125 00:40:46,310 --> 00:40:44,160 from the airplane which was the range of 1126 00:40:48,470 --> 00:40:46,320 the maximum range of their radar it was 1127 00:40:49,750 --> 00:40:48,480 going faster 1128 00:40:51,589 --> 00:40:49,760 when they 1129 00:40:53,109 --> 00:40:51,599 after they turned away 1130 00:40:55,030 --> 00:40:53,119 now i sound a little strange for a 1131 00:40:56,390 --> 00:40:55,040 typical airplane 1132 00:40:57,829 --> 00:40:56,400 so if it was trying to run away from 1133 00:40:59,510 --> 00:40:57,839 them and it had the capability of doing 1134 00:41:01,670 --> 00:40:59,520 300 and some miles an hour which is what 1135 00:41:03,990 --> 00:41:01,680 it was doing after the plane after the 1136 00:41:05,589 --> 00:41:04,000 surveillance plane turned east 1137 00:41:09,589 --> 00:41:05,599 when they were traveling northwest they 1138 00:41:12,230 --> 00:41:09,599 were doing 220 or 30 mile knots i think 1139 00:41:14,230 --> 00:41:12,240 and then uh when the plane turned east 1140 00:41:16,390 --> 00:41:14,240 as objects sped up and 1141 00:41:17,829 --> 00:41:16,400 hit it off in the distance 1142 00:41:20,630 --> 00:41:17,839 whatever it was 1143 00:41:23,109 --> 00:41:20,640 that was the real ufo right there nobody 1144 00:41:24,870 --> 00:41:23,119 pays any attention to 1145 00:41:26,790 --> 00:41:24,880 nobody knows what that was 1146 00:41:28,950 --> 00:41:26,800 it's funny but then as they headed to 1147 00:41:31,109 --> 00:41:28,960 the east they're still looking for this 1148 00:41:32,550 --> 00:41:31,119 object with their infrared 1149 00:41:35,750 --> 00:41:32,560 and they suddenly start picking up 1150 00:41:38,470 --> 00:41:35,760 bright spots off in the distance 1151 00:41:41,990 --> 00:41:40,710 they initially get one or two bright 1152 00:41:43,670 --> 00:41:42,000 lights off in the distance and then they 1153 00:41:44,950 --> 00:41:43,680 get a group of them 1154 00:41:46,230 --> 00:41:44,960 and these things appear to be a 1155 00:41:47,990 --> 00:41:46,240 considerable distance away from the 1156 00:41:50,069 --> 00:41:48,000 airplane and 1157 00:41:51,109 --> 00:41:50,079 going behind clouds 1158 00:41:53,750 --> 00:41:51,119 but 1159 00:41:55,109 --> 00:41:53,760 the perspective of the view over these 1160 00:41:57,109 --> 00:41:55,119 make it look like they're traveling 1161 00:41:59,109 --> 00:41:57,119 right along with the airplane they can't 1162 00:42:01,109 --> 00:41:59,119 see anything with the naked eye but they 1163 00:42:04,230 --> 00:42:01,119 can pick up these bright lights 1164 00:42:06,630 --> 00:42:04,240 with a video with the infrared camera 1165 00:42:08,309 --> 00:42:06,640 as they travel along to the east 1166 00:42:11,270 --> 00:42:08,319 these things as i said seem to be 1167 00:42:13,829 --> 00:42:11,280 traveling along with them and 1168 00:42:16,390 --> 00:42:13,839 finally after 1169 00:42:18,069 --> 00:42:16,400 10 or 15 minutes i forget 1170 00:42:20,470 --> 00:42:18,079 these things have 1171 00:42:22,710 --> 00:42:20,480 dropped back behind or disappear and 1172 00:42:24,790 --> 00:42:22,720 they're not seen anymore and 1173 00:42:26,630 --> 00:42:24,800 that's basically the end of the sighting 1174 00:42:29,190 --> 00:42:26,640 they picked up on radar a few things on 1175 00:42:29,910 --> 00:42:29,200 the ground perhaps and picked up on the 1176 00:42:31,990 --> 00:42:29,920 uh 1177 00:42:34,950 --> 00:42:32,000 infrared maybe some 1178 00:42:37,670 --> 00:42:34,960 things on the ground that were hot but 1179 00:42:39,270 --> 00:42:37,680 the the uh 1180 00:42:41,109 --> 00:42:39,280 when the 1181 00:42:43,990 --> 00:42:41,119 man operating flare said it looks like 1182 00:42:45,430 --> 00:42:44,000 he's got 12 ufos traveling one with him 1183 00:42:46,630 --> 00:42:45,440 he's looking at something that makes 1184 00:42:48,870 --> 00:42:46,640 heat 1185 00:42:52,150 --> 00:42:48,880 but the question is what 1186 00:42:53,430 --> 00:42:52,160 well it turned out that a guy in 1187 00:42:55,349 --> 00:42:53,440 mexico 1188 00:42:57,030 --> 00:42:55,359 had realized right off the bat that this 1189 00:42:59,349 --> 00:42:57,040 airplane the people in the airplane were 1190 00:43:01,349 --> 00:42:59,359 looking toward 1191 00:43:04,710 --> 00:43:01,359 a oil field 1192 00:43:06,550 --> 00:43:04,720 about 100 miles away and the pemaco oil 1193 00:43:08,230 --> 00:43:06,560 corporation 1194 00:43:10,630 --> 00:43:08,240 and they have these 1195 00:43:13,190 --> 00:43:10,640 texas tower type things 1196 00:43:15,190 --> 00:43:13,200 out of the um 1197 00:43:17,750 --> 00:43:15,200 on the bay of water that's above the 1198 00:43:19,670 --> 00:43:17,760 yucatan island the gulf of mexico so 1199 00:43:20,710 --> 00:43:19,680 they're you know obviously close to the 1200 00:43:23,349 --> 00:43:20,720 uh 1201 00:43:25,190 --> 00:43:23,359 within 10 or 20 miles of the land 1202 00:43:26,630 --> 00:43:25,200 but they're off in the water 1203 00:43:28,870 --> 00:43:26,640 texas towers 1204 00:43:30,950 --> 00:43:28,880 and they're pumping oil and 1205 00:43:32,390 --> 00:43:30,960 gas out and they burn the gas off in 1206 00:43:36,950 --> 00:43:32,400 flames 1207 00:43:37,829 --> 00:43:36,960 many of them 24 hours a day 1208 00:43:40,790 --> 00:43:37,839 and so 1209 00:43:41,990 --> 00:43:40,800 the suggestion was made that 1210 00:43:43,829 --> 00:43:42,000 what these people pick up on their 1211 00:43:45,670 --> 00:43:43,839 forward looking infrared 1212 00:43:47,589 --> 00:43:45,680 flir 1213 00:43:49,349 --> 00:43:47,599 was in fact 1214 00:43:52,950 --> 00:43:49,359 these fires 1215 00:43:54,710 --> 00:43:52,960 that is of 110 miles approximately 1216 00:43:56,630 --> 00:43:54,720 and i 1217 00:43:59,430 --> 00:43:56,640 i was 1218 00:44:01,589 --> 00:43:59,440 contacted by 1219 00:44:02,870 --> 00:44:01,599 james and i told 1220 00:44:04,790 --> 00:44:02,880 asked to 1221 00:44:07,270 --> 00:44:04,800 do the study of this 1222 00:44:08,470 --> 00:44:07,280 sort of on the behalf of the 1223 00:44:09,910 --> 00:44:08,480 mexican 1224 00:44:11,750 --> 00:44:09,920 air force 1225 00:44:13,829 --> 00:44:11,760 they were giving me 1226 00:44:14,790 --> 00:44:13,839 a digital tape which had everything on 1227 00:44:20,790 --> 00:44:14,800 it 1228 00:44:23,270 --> 00:44:20,800 taped information that was 1229 00:44:25,109 --> 00:44:23,280 on the airplane 1230 00:44:28,069 --> 00:44:25,119 and they gave one of the trouble of 1231 00:44:30,710 --> 00:44:28,079 having everything translated for me and 1232 00:44:33,670 --> 00:44:30,720 provided me with maps and i got 1233 00:44:35,349 --> 00:44:33,680 help from other people as well 1234 00:44:37,589 --> 00:44:35,359 analyzed the whole situation and 1235 00:44:39,829 --> 00:44:37,599 concluded that the radar target 1236 00:44:41,190 --> 00:44:39,839 was probably a ufo 1237 00:44:44,230 --> 00:44:41,200 uh i mean it certainly was not 1238 00:44:45,910 --> 00:44:44,240 identifiable and did strange things 1239 00:44:48,309 --> 00:44:45,920 it was invisible but it was picked up 1240 00:44:50,230 --> 00:44:48,319 continuously on radar not the first time 1241 00:44:53,670 --> 00:44:50,240 radars picked up things that are not 1242 00:44:59,510 --> 00:44:56,790 but very often radar targets so-called 1243 00:45:01,990 --> 00:44:59,520 radar angels or artifacts of the radar 1244 00:45:04,710 --> 00:45:02,000 itself or the weather problems 1245 00:45:06,630 --> 00:45:04,720 but here we have a situation where 1246 00:45:08,309 --> 00:45:06,640 uh weather couldn't was not playing a 1247 00:45:11,270 --> 00:45:08,319 prank playing a role 1248 00:45:12,630 --> 00:45:11,280 uh detecting a target at two miles away 1249 00:45:14,950 --> 00:45:12,640 from the airplane 1250 00:45:17,589 --> 00:45:14,960 it was maintaining speed and then 1251 00:45:19,430 --> 00:45:17,599 sped up on its own when it was going 1252 00:45:21,670 --> 00:45:19,440 away from the aircraft the air aircraft 1253 00:45:24,710 --> 00:45:21,680 turned away from it 1254 00:45:27,030 --> 00:45:24,720 so that was the ufo then as a 1255 00:45:28,230 --> 00:45:27,040 my analysis of the 1256 00:45:29,829 --> 00:45:28,240 flights 1257 00:45:31,910 --> 00:45:29,839 showed that in fact the people were 1258 00:45:33,030 --> 00:45:31,920 looking 1259 00:45:36,950 --> 00:45:33,040 and these 1260 00:45:38,470 --> 00:45:36,960 lights drifted backwards 1261 00:45:40,309 --> 00:45:38,480 as you're looking out to the side and 1262 00:45:42,390 --> 00:45:40,319 you're traveling along you 1263 00:45:44,150 --> 00:45:42,400 point towards an object that's a long 1264 00:45:45,109 --> 00:45:44,160 distance away 1265 00:45:47,829 --> 00:45:45,119 and 1266 00:45:49,270 --> 00:45:47,839 if you're traveling in a straight line 1267 00:45:51,430 --> 00:45:49,280 in some direction and you're looking at 1268 00:45:53,190 --> 00:45:51,440 something for almost 90 degrees to your 1269 00:45:55,190 --> 00:45:53,200 straight line direction 1270 00:45:59,109 --> 00:45:55,200 as you travel along your pointing 1271 00:46:00,710 --> 00:45:59,119 direction will drop back towards 1272 00:46:02,390 --> 00:46:00,720 towards the rear 1273 00:46:04,710 --> 00:46:02,400 and so the pouring direction on these 1274 00:46:06,390 --> 00:46:04,720 objects actually did drop back aways 1275 00:46:09,190 --> 00:46:06,400 because this was 1276 00:46:10,790 --> 00:46:09,200 how they move how the plane flew along 1277 00:46:11,990 --> 00:46:10,800 bottom line being 1278 00:46:13,190 --> 00:46:12,000 they were looking in the direction they 1279 00:46:15,270 --> 00:46:13,200 definitely were looking in the direction 1280 00:46:18,069 --> 00:46:15,280 of these 1281 00:46:19,829 --> 00:46:18,079 things with the gas flames 1282 00:46:21,670 --> 00:46:19,839 and so that was it seemed to be a 1283 00:46:23,829 --> 00:46:21,680 reasonable explanation i wasn't able to 1284 00:46:25,430 --> 00:46:23,839 absolutely prove by identifying each 1285 00:46:26,790 --> 00:46:25,440 flame with each 1286 00:46:28,069 --> 00:46:26,800 bright light 1287 00:46:29,910 --> 00:46:28,079 which is something you should be able to 1288 00:46:31,510 --> 00:46:29,920 do 1289 00:46:34,230 --> 00:46:31,520 but there may not have been enough data 1290 00:46:35,270 --> 00:46:34,240 to do that in any case 1291 00:46:37,109 --> 00:46:35,280 the uh 1292 00:46:39,349 --> 00:46:37,119 air force response was we've flown over 1293 00:46:41,190 --> 00:46:39,359 the area many times and never seen those 1294 00:46:42,630 --> 00:46:41,200 flares before 1295 00:46:44,790 --> 00:46:42,640 the fires 1296 00:46:47,829 --> 00:46:44,800 so i don't know but uh 1297 00:46:51,109 --> 00:46:47,839 that's probably explained the infrared 1298 00:46:52,870 --> 00:46:51,119 lights are probably not ufos 1299 00:46:55,829 --> 00:46:52,880 but there was one there earlier which is 1300 00:46:58,309 --> 00:46:55,839 the radar radar target i'd say was it 1301 00:46:59,190 --> 00:46:58,319 was an unidentified radar target 1302 00:47:00,950 --> 00:46:59,200 yeah 1303 00:47:02,309 --> 00:47:00,960 really or there wasn't anything the 1304 00:47:03,829 --> 00:47:02,319 point is 1305 00:47:05,190 --> 00:47:03,839 it wasn't a 1306 00:47:06,630 --> 00:47:05,200 balloon it was traveling a couple 1307 00:47:08,470 --> 00:47:06,640 hundred miles an hour 1308 00:47:10,069 --> 00:47:08,480 it wasn't an ordinary aircraft because 1309 00:47:11,510 --> 00:47:10,079 you would have seen an ordinary aircraft 1310 00:47:13,349 --> 00:47:11,520 they couldn't they can't paint it 1311 00:47:15,030 --> 00:47:13,359 invisible and even somehow they had 1312 00:47:16,470 --> 00:47:15,040 managed to camouflage an airplane so you 1313 00:47:17,589 --> 00:47:16,480 couldn't see it by looking down on it 1314 00:47:19,270 --> 00:47:17,599 because it might look like the 1315 00:47:22,230 --> 00:47:19,280 background 1316 00:47:25,430 --> 00:47:22,240 any engine any engine aircraft we have 1317 00:47:28,309 --> 00:47:25,440 creates heat even the much uh 1318 00:47:30,630 --> 00:47:28,319 valley hood stealth aircraft 1319 00:47:32,309 --> 00:47:30,640 would create a heat trail and certainly 1320 00:47:34,550 --> 00:47:32,319 not as great as 1321 00:47:36,470 --> 00:47:34,560 a jet aircraft or something but 1322 00:47:37,270 --> 00:47:36,480 you should be you should be able to have 1323 00:47:39,109 --> 00:47:37,280 seen 1324 00:47:41,349 --> 00:47:39,119 the engines 1325 00:47:43,670 --> 00:47:41,359 of any uh typical aircraft that would be 1326 00:47:45,510 --> 00:47:43,680 over the yucatan peninsula right and yet 1327 00:47:47,109 --> 00:47:45,520 there was nothing there on the flear and 1328 00:47:49,349 --> 00:47:47,119 nothing visible 1329 00:47:51,109 --> 00:47:49,359 right yeah what was it 1330 00:47:52,790 --> 00:47:51,119 that's right that sounds like 1331 00:47:54,470 --> 00:47:52,800 it was a good one after all even though 1332 00:47:56,550 --> 00:47:54,480 the uh the 1333 00:47:58,710 --> 00:47:56,560 the thing that everyone looks at is 1334 00:48:02,710 --> 00:47:58,720 those lights traveling along well you 1335 00:48:04,550 --> 00:48:02,720 know yeah press press in garbage out the 1336 00:48:06,470 --> 00:48:04,560 press goes to the throat it's the same 1337 00:48:08,470 --> 00:48:06,480 sort of thing with the phoenix lights 1338 00:48:09,670 --> 00:48:08,480 what do they show for phoenix lights 1339 00:48:14,069 --> 00:48:09,680 videos 1340 00:48:15,589 --> 00:48:14,079 the players at 10 o'clock yeah and when 1341 00:48:16,950 --> 00:48:15,599 they're talking about they'll be 1342 00:48:18,870 --> 00:48:16,960 interviewing somebody about what you saw 1343 00:48:20,309 --> 00:48:18,880 at 8 30. oh i saw this big triangular 1344 00:48:22,230 --> 00:48:20,319 object went over and had a couple of 1345 00:48:24,309 --> 00:48:22,240 lights on and because it's as big as it 1346 00:48:26,470 --> 00:48:24,319 was as big as a city block 1347 00:48:28,309 --> 00:48:26,480 and while the man is describing that 1348 00:48:29,910 --> 00:48:28,319 they'll be showing the crystal arc which 1349 00:48:31,349 --> 00:48:29,920 has nothing to do with whatever actually 1350 00:48:32,390 --> 00:48:31,359 went over 1351 00:48:35,190 --> 00:48:32,400 phoenix 1352 00:48:36,470 --> 00:48:35,200 at 8 30. it's uh it makes you wonder if 1353 00:48:38,150 --> 00:48:36,480 the flares 1354 00:48:40,069 --> 00:48:38,160 weren't put out there 1355 00:48:41,030 --> 00:48:40,079 because of the sighting well i would 1356 00:48:43,270 --> 00:48:41,040 have to 1357 00:48:44,150 --> 00:48:43,280 be a quick react situation of course 1358 00:48:45,750 --> 00:48:44,160 because 1359 00:48:48,870 --> 00:48:45,760 yeah 1360 00:48:51,109 --> 00:48:48,880 my guess is it's more likely that the 1361 00:48:53,829 --> 00:48:51,119 maryland national guard was telling the 1362 00:48:55,670 --> 00:48:53,839 truth and they said they had 1363 00:48:57,270 --> 00:48:55,680 because they they had access to the 1364 00:48:59,270 --> 00:48:57,280 berry gold water training range for half 1365 00:49:01,589 --> 00:48:59,280 an hour an hour or something like that 1366 00:49:03,430 --> 00:49:01,599 up until 10 o'clock at night and 1367 00:49:05,349 --> 00:49:03,440 we're dropping flares as part of their 1368 00:49:07,190 --> 00:49:05,359 normal exercises and 1369 00:49:08,950 --> 00:49:07,200 um 1370 00:49:11,190 --> 00:49:08,960 if you think about it they're on one of 1371 00:49:13,670 --> 00:49:11,200 those a10 aircraft there was 1372 00:49:16,150 --> 00:49:13,680 eight flares 1373 00:49:18,790 --> 00:49:16,160 and they had a certain number of 1374 00:49:19,670 --> 00:49:18,800 aircraft and a certain number of flares 1375 00:49:22,230 --> 00:49:19,680 uh 1376 00:49:24,309 --> 00:49:22,240 on all the aircraft that were involved 1377 00:49:26,069 --> 00:49:24,319 and apparently they were told that they 1378 00:49:27,670 --> 00:49:26,079 couldn't land with flares they had to 1379 00:49:29,190 --> 00:49:27,680 use them up 1380 00:49:30,549 --> 00:49:29,200 at least that's what that's what the 1381 00:49:32,230 --> 00:49:30,559 story was 1382 00:49:33,510 --> 00:49:32,240 well now if you look at the christian 1383 00:49:36,790 --> 00:49:33,520 ark 1384 00:49:40,630 --> 00:49:36,800 there's a single light that appears 1385 00:49:45,109 --> 00:49:42,630 the arc is actually eight lights to go 1386 00:49:47,589 --> 00:49:45,119 off in a row but there was a single 1387 00:49:50,950 --> 00:49:47,599 light that had been there for uh half a 1388 00:49:51,990 --> 00:49:50,960 minute or a minute before the arc begins 1389 00:49:53,349 --> 00:49:52,000 so 1390 00:49:54,790 --> 00:49:53,359 think about it if there were two 1391 00:49:56,150 --> 00:49:54,800 airplanes coming back and one of them 1392 00:49:58,950 --> 00:49:56,160 throws out a flare that could be a 1393 00:50:00,870 --> 00:49:58,960 single light and then one dumps in a 1394 00:50:02,630 --> 00:50:00,880 whole load of eight 1395 00:50:04,230 --> 00:50:02,640 one two three four five six seven eight 1396 00:50:06,470 --> 00:50:04,240 one after another like that 1397 00:50:08,710 --> 00:50:06,480 then you would get this arc of lights so 1398 00:50:10,950 --> 00:50:08,720 we're just about out of time here and 1399 00:50:12,390 --> 00:50:10,960 just one question comes to mind is what 1400 00:50:15,510 --> 00:50:12,400 do you think the future is going to be 1401 00:50:18,230 --> 00:50:15,520 of analysis i know they can create more 1402 00:50:20,230 --> 00:50:18,240 and more sophisticated films to fool us 1403 00:50:22,870 --> 00:50:20,240 but do you think the analysis will be 1404 00:50:24,470 --> 00:50:22,880 more sophisticated as well well the 1405 00:50:27,030 --> 00:50:24,480 analysis will probably be more 1406 00:50:28,549 --> 00:50:27,040 sophisticated but i think it's still 1407 00:50:30,309 --> 00:50:28,559 going to come down to a lot of the 1408 00:50:31,990 --> 00:50:30,319 background stuff the 1409 00:50:34,069 --> 00:50:32,000 circumstantial evidence 1410 00:50:36,309 --> 00:50:34,079 why the film was taken who took it how 1411 00:50:37,190 --> 00:50:36,319 it was taken 1412 00:50:38,470 --> 00:50:37,200 you know 1413 00:50:41,030 --> 00:50:38,480 you always have to put together a 1414 00:50:44,390 --> 00:50:41,040 history of the sighting it always the 1415 00:50:46,230 --> 00:50:44,400 problem here in ufos is ufos don't exist 1416 00:50:48,710 --> 00:50:46,240 therefore anything you videotape or 1417 00:50:50,870 --> 00:50:48,720 photograph is not real that's from the 1418 00:50:52,150 --> 00:50:50,880 point of view of conventional science so 1419 00:50:54,549 --> 00:50:52,160 you've got a 1420 00:50:56,950 --> 00:50:54,559 tough row to hoe to prove that whatever 1421 00:51:00,069 --> 00:50:56,960 it is is unidentifiable 1422 00:51:02,390 --> 00:51:00,079 uh right and you prove that 1423 00:51:04,630 --> 00:51:02,400 the proof can take place by 1424 00:51:07,430 --> 00:51:04,640 demonstrating that whatever is recorded 1425 00:51:09,829 --> 00:51:07,440 in the video or film or whatever 1426 00:51:12,870 --> 00:51:09,839 it's clearly not something that would 1427 00:51:15,829 --> 00:51:12,880 normally be there whatever it is 1428 00:51:17,670 --> 00:51:15,839 and then you've got to prove that 1429 00:51:19,349 --> 00:51:17,680 whatever the film or video is isn't a 1430 00:51:20,710 --> 00:51:19,359 hoax by somebody 1431 00:51:21,829 --> 00:51:20,720 one of the key things you'll have to 1432 00:51:23,510 --> 00:51:21,839 have is 1433 00:51:25,510 --> 00:51:23,520 access to the witnesses 1434 00:51:27,430 --> 00:51:25,520 anonymous videos and photos and so on 1435 00:51:29,750 --> 00:51:27,440 don't hack it right 1436 00:51:31,750 --> 00:51:29,760 yeah i will say that 1437 00:51:33,270 --> 00:51:31,760 a single photo or a couple of photos a 1438 00:51:37,750 --> 00:51:33,280 lot easier to fake 1439 00:51:39,510 --> 00:51:37,760 than a movie film or a video so 1440 00:51:41,349 --> 00:51:39,520 fake probability goes down as the 1441 00:51:42,549 --> 00:51:41,359 complexity goes up 1442 00:51:45,190 --> 00:51:42,559 but that doesn't mean that a fake 1443 00:51:46,069 --> 00:51:45,200 probability goes to zero 1444 00:51:48,950 --> 00:51:46,079 unless you've got a lot of 1445 00:51:49,670 --> 00:51:48,960 circumstantial evidence behind it to 1446 00:51:51,430 --> 00:51:49,680 to 1447 00:51:52,470 --> 00:51:51,440 demonstrate why 1448 00:51:54,150 --> 00:51:52,480 it should be 1449 00:51:55,510 --> 00:51:54,160 considered to be the truth as opposed to 1450 00:51:57,190 --> 00:51:55,520 a hoax 1451 00:51:59,030 --> 00:51:57,200 well this has been uh this has been 1452 00:52:00,950 --> 00:51:59,040 really interesting and i really 1453 00:52:04,630 --> 00:52:00,960 appreciate your time so this is martin
