australia has something like 25 or 26 134 00:04:58,629 --> 00:04:54,960 million people 135 00:05:01,670 --> 00:04:58,639 yet they are they are like the second 136 00:05:04,629 --> 00:05:01,680 most listening to this show 137 00:05:05,189 --> 00:05:04,639 um when i go through the analytics it's 138 00:05:07,510 --> 00:05:05,199 either 139 00:05:08,710 --> 00:05:07,520 um it's united states first and it's 140 00:05:11,830 --> 00:05:08,720 either australia 141 00:05:14,070 --> 00:05:11,840 or i believe the uk and back and forth 142 00:05:16,150 --> 00:05:14,080 between australia and the uk that listen 143 00:05:17,189 --> 00:05:16,160 to the show it's pretty amazing for a 144 00:05:19,909 --> 00:05:17,199 country with not 145 00:05:20,390 --> 00:05:19,919 a ton of people in it so what is the 146 00:05:24,629 --> 00:05:20,400 interest 147 00:05:25,270 --> 00:05:24,639 in australia i think because we have 148 00:05:28,790 --> 00:05:25,280 such a 149 00:05:31,029 --> 00:05:28,800 desert a drought of ufo information 150 00:05:33,189 --> 00:05:31,039 much of the information and openness 151 00:05:35,990 --> 00:05:33,199 seems to be believe it or not coming 152 00:05:37,510 --> 00:05:36,000 from the united states um of course we 153 00:05:39,110 --> 00:05:37,520 know that the latin american countries 154 00:05:42,230 --> 00:05:39,120 are much more open about 155 00:05:43,670 --> 00:05:42,240 um ufo topics than 156 00:05:45,670 --> 00:05:43,680 the western world seems to be the 157 00:05:47,189 --> 00:05:45,680 english-speaking world however 158 00:05:48,710 --> 00:05:47,199 because of the language barrier it's 159 00:05:49,749 --> 00:05:48,720 difficult for us to access that 160 00:05:52,550 --> 00:05:49,759 information 161 00:05:54,950 --> 00:05:52,560 unless it's translated so um the united 162 00:05:58,070 --> 00:05:54,960 states is our biggest source of um 163 00:06:01,430 --> 00:05:58,080 of good quality information we um 164 00:06:04,950 --> 00:06:01,440 have very little um support 165 00:06:07,110 --> 00:06:04,960 for people that um do or either have 166 00:06:07,990 --> 00:06:07,120 had an experience or do study the ufo 167 00:06:10,390 --> 00:06:08,000 topic 168 00:06:12,390 --> 00:06:10,400 um we're much like britain i was talking 169 00:06:15,749 --> 00:06:12,400 to jay from project unity 170 00:06:19,270 --> 00:06:15,759 uh recently and he was saying that 171 00:06:21,510 --> 00:06:19,280 um in britain it's pretty much radio 172 00:06:23,990 --> 00:06:21,520 silence about the ufo topic 173 00:06:25,189 --> 00:06:24,000 um nothing forthcoming from the 174 00:06:27,110 --> 00:06:25,199 authorities it's not 175 00:06:29,749 --> 00:06:27,120 encouraged to be spoken about amongst 176 00:06:32,390 --> 00:06:29,759 scientists pretty much the same here the 177 00:06:33,350 --> 00:06:32,400 the um ridicule factor is still pretty 178 00:06:37,029 --> 00:06:33,360 high 179 00:06:39,590 --> 00:06:37,039 um people i i must myself feel 180 00:06:40,870 --> 00:06:39,600 nervous about talking about ufo my 181 00:06:44,629 --> 00:06:40,880 interest in ufos 182 00:06:46,629 --> 00:06:44,639 which only i was only um 183 00:06:48,469 --> 00:06:46,639 came into this about five years ago i 184 00:06:49,029 --> 00:06:48,479 was really not interested in the topic 185 00:06:52,469 --> 00:06:49,039 at all 186 00:06:54,550 --> 00:06:52,479 and i really believed that people who 187 00:06:57,350 --> 00:06:54,560 saw ufos i had never heard of a mass 188 00:06:59,589 --> 00:06:57,360 sighting such as westall 189 00:07:00,629 --> 00:06:59,599 and i thought that people who saw ufos 190 00:07:02,790 --> 00:07:00,639 probably had 191 00:07:04,870 --> 00:07:02,800 some mental health issues or were on 192 00:07:07,110 --> 00:07:04,880 some mind-altering substances 193 00:07:08,629 --> 00:07:07,120 that was my belief and do you think that 194 00:07:11,270 --> 00:07:08,639 is like part of the 195 00:07:13,270 --> 00:07:11,280 culture there that your feelings of it i 196 00:07:17,029 --> 00:07:13,280 mean the reason you felt that way 197 00:07:17,589 --> 00:07:17,039 is part of the the you know that it's a 198 00:07:19,749 --> 00:07:17,599 fringe 199 00:07:21,670 --> 00:07:19,759 topic and weirdos and tin foil hats and 200 00:07:24,870 --> 00:07:21,680 all that absolutely 201 00:07:26,870 --> 00:07:24,880 um yeah you could probably 202 00:07:28,710 --> 00:07:26,880 uh oh i don't know if you could be fired 203 00:07:29,350 --> 00:07:28,720 from a job and until recently you'd 204 00:07:31,189 --> 00:07:29,360 certainly 205 00:07:33,350 --> 00:07:31,199 life would be and even now life would be 206 00:07:36,710 --> 00:07:33,360 very uncomfortable if you admitted it 207 00:07:39,990 --> 00:07:36,720 and you get um put into the 208 00:07:42,070 --> 00:07:40,000 um new age basket perhaps or not quite 209 00:07:43,350 --> 00:07:42,080 the lunatic basket but you know

of that has that had any direct 253 00:09:22,230 --> 00:09:20,080 effect that particular 254 00:09:23,430 --> 00:09:22,240 situation where the new york times 255 00:09:25,110 --> 00:09:23,440 article do does 256 00:09:27,509 --> 00:09:25,120 australia pay attention to that type of 257 00:09:30,630 --> 00:09:27,519 thing hardly 258 00:09:32,630 --> 00:09:30,640 um okay we're having a 259 00:09:35,030 --> 00:09:32,640 little circle of friends a couple of 260 00:09:37,670 --> 00:09:35,040 journalists um 261 00:09:38,870 --> 00:09:37,680 you know in investigative journalists 262 00:09:42,509 --> 00:09:38,880 one of them works 263 00:09:45,509 --> 00:09:42,519 um for the um 264 00:09:48,790 --> 00:09:45,519 government-funded um 265 00:09:51,110 --> 00:09:48,800 tv and radio um oh 266 00:09:52,070 --> 00:09:51,120 is it a commission or a broadcast 267 00:09:55,110 --> 00:09:52,080 service 268 00:09:58,070 --> 00:09:55,120 um which is very conservative and very 269 00:09:58,710 --> 00:09:58,080 um careful and very um scientifically 270 00:10:01,829 --> 00:09:58,720 focused 271 00:10:03,670 --> 00:10:01,839 um organisation um excellent 272 00:10:05,269 --> 00:10:03,680 good quality information comes out it's 273 00:10:08,310 --> 00:10:05,279 called the abc 274 00:10:10,949 --> 00:10:08,320 um and my favorite probably my favorite 275 00:10:12,310 --> 00:10:10,959 tv radio station to listen to because of 276 00:10:17,430 --> 00:10:12,320 the 277 00:10:18,069 --> 00:10:17,440 intellectually stimulating conversations 278 00:10:19,990 --> 00:10:18,079 and and 279 00:10:21,350 --> 00:10:20,000 information that comes out of it yeah 280 00:10:23,269 --> 00:10:21,360 it's quite surprising they do 281 00:10:24,389 --> 00:10:23,279 cover a little bit they just poke at it 282 00:10:27,829 --> 00:10:24,399 with a stick 283 00:10:30,710 --> 00:10:27,839 but um match um the journalists 284 00:10:32,470 --> 00:10:30,720 were discussing well he has had a long 285 00:10:34,790 --> 00:10:32,480 interest in this topic 286 00:10:35,670 --> 00:10:34,800 and he keeps on wanting to cover it a 287 00:10:37,190 --> 00:10:35,680 lot more 288 00:10:38,949 --> 00:10:37,200 but they're very careful i think the 289 00:10:41,509 --> 00:10:38,959 editors are very careful that 290 00:10:42,470 --> 00:10:41,519 um the information is thoroughly 291 00:10:44,389 --> 00:10:42,480 fact-checked and 292 00:10:45,910 --> 00:10:44,399 and it's sort of like they have to from 293 00:10:46,389 --> 00:10:45,920 what i perceive that they have to see 294 00:10:48,949 --> 00:10:46,399 that 295 00:10:49,829 --> 00:10:48,959 the whole world is reporting on it first 296 00:10:51,990 --> 00:10:49,839 especially 297 00:10:53,910 --> 00:10:52,000 the um more conservative media outlets 298 00:10:57,110 --> 00:10:53,920 in the united states before they will 299 00:11:00,069 --> 00:10:57,120 touch it and even i don't know that they 300 00:11:01,350 --> 00:11:00,079 they they may have covered the the tic 301 00:11:03,430 --> 00:11:01,360 tac thing 302 00:11:04,790 --> 00:11:03,440 um yeah i think they did they they 303 00:11:06,949 --> 00:11:04,800 covered it um 304 00:11:08,150 --> 00:11:06,959 but it was probably it took about six 305 00:11:10,389 --> 00:11:08,160 months a year 306 00:11:11,829 --> 00:11:10,399 more for them to actually cover it after 307 00:11:15,509 --> 00:11:11,839 it came out in the united states 308 00:11:18,310 --> 00:11:15,519 so typically it would take 309 00:11:20,470 --> 00:11:18,320 at least a year or more for them to to 310 00:11:22,949 --> 00:11:20,480 roll around to australia 311 00:11:24,389 --> 00:11:22,959 so there you go so i know we're going to 312 00:11:25,829 --> 00:11:24,399 be talking about some cases someone 313 00:11:27,430 --> 00:11:25,839 already wants to know something i'll 314 00:11:29,590 --> 00:11:27,440 post that up in a minute but 315 00:11:31,110 --> 00:11:29,600 uh i know we're going to be talking 316 00:11:33,110 --> 00:11:31,120 about some 317 00:11:34,949 --> 00:11:33,120 uh you know well-known cases and then a 318 00:11:37,829 --> 00:11:34,959 couple of unusual cases 319 00:11:39,910 --> 00:11:37,839 during the show my question to you is uh 320 00:11:43,110 --> 00:11:39,920 so what happens to the person 321 00:11:45,829 --> 00:11:43,120 that has a extraordinary ufo 322 00:11:47,350 --> 00:11:45,839 incident and they go to talk about it 323 00:11:48,230 --> 00:11:47,360 what happens to those people where do 324 00:11:51,509 --> 00:11:48,240 they go 325 00:11:54,310 --> 00:11:51,519 oh nowhere there's nowhere since um 326 00:11:58,710 --> 00:11:54,320 project blue book in the 1960s 327 00:12:01,910 --> 00:11:58,720 um the um climate has 328 00:12:04,150 --> 00:12:01,920 in in the in the mainstream sort of um 329 00:12:04,949 --> 00:12:04,160 awareness has just generally been really 330 00:12:06,949 --> 00:12:04,959 squashed 331 00:12:08,790 --> 00:12:06,959 i mean for example i don't know whether 332 00:12:09,350 --> 00:12:08,800 we should talk about this now or later 333 00:12:12,310 --> 00:12:09,360 but 334 00:12:12,629

a an article from a magazine 338 00:12:23,430 --> 00:12:20,000 called women's day 339 00:12:24,710 --> 00:12:23,440 um and where 340 00:12:26,870 --> 00:12:24,720 three of the witnesses the western

a 424 00:15:22,949 --> 00:15:20,079 community magazine 425 00:15:24,550 --> 00:15:22,959 um it was a six-month contract and so i 426 00:15:26,389 --> 00:15:24,560 thought okay i'll hop over the border

--> 00:15:35,759 um somebody mentioned that they would 434 00:15:40,150 --> 00:15:38,240 like to have a column on ufos like i 435 00:15:41,509 --> 00:15:40,160 have a ufo report regular 436

--> 00:15:52,959 included and it would be just quite 443 00:15:56,150 --> 00:15:54,639 whimsical and hilarious 444 00:15:58,389 --> 00:15:56,160 and then somebody pulled me up and said 445 00:15:59,110 --> 00:15:58,399 well actually haven't you heard of the 446 00:16:02,230 --> 00:15:59,120 westall 447 00:16:03,110 --> 00:16:02,240 incident and i said no what what's that 448 00:16:06,310 --> 00:16:03,120 about 449 00:16:07,509 --> 00:16:06,320 and um this person quite seriously told 450 00:16:10,629 --> 00:16:07,519 me that 451 00:16:11,430 --> 00:16:10,639 this was a mass sighting about 250 452 00:16:13,350 --> 00:16:11,440 people 453 00:16:15,030 --> 00:16:13,360 many of them school children but many 454 00:16:16,230 --> 00:16:15,040 members of the western community saw it 455 00:16:20,790 --> 00:16:16,240 as well 456 00:16:23,749 --> 00:16:20,800 um saw a ufo that visited a school 457 00:16:24,069 --> 00:16:23,759 and so they pointed me in the direction 458 00:16:26,150 --> 00:16:24,079 of 459 00:16:27,269 --> 00:16:26,160 the excellent documentary that rosie 460 00:16:29,269 --> 00:16:27,279 jones made 461 00:16:30,629 --> 00:16:29,279 which featured shane ryan as the 462 00:16:33,829 --> 00:16:30,639 investigator 463 00:16:36,949 --> 00:16:33,839 so i sat down and watched that and i was 464 00:16:37,910 --> 00:16:36,959 um pretty much blown away but before 465 00:16:40,550 --> 00:16:37,920 that 466 00:16:41,590 --> 00:16:40,560 just prior to coming over to melbourne 467 00:16:44,629 --> 00:16:41,600 you know 468 00:16:46,470 --> 00:16:44,639 being an internet surfer i would like to 469 00:16:47,030 --> 00:16:46,480 look up different topics to expand my 470 00:16:48,870 --> 00:16:47,040 mind 471 00:16:50,470 --> 00:16:48,880 you know to inspire myself for my 472 00:16:53,509 --> 00:16:50,480 artwork or whatever 473 00:16:56,150 --> 00:16:53,519 and i did at one point do a 474 00:16:56,710 --> 00:16:56,160 search on whether there were any um 475 00:16:59,910 --> 00:16:56,720 people 476 00:17:01,590 --> 00:16:59,920 studying the ufo topics seriously 477 00:17:04,390 --> 00:17:01,600 because when you do a quick search all 478 00:17:04,789 --> 00:17:04,400 you see is the the weird new age stuff 479 00:17:07,350 --> 00:17:04,799 which 480 00:17:07,829 --> 00:17:07,360 i really couldn't relate to at the time 481 00:17:09,669 --> 00:17:07,839 and 482 00:17:11,829 --> 00:17:09,679 i wanted to see if there were any 483 00:17:14,230 --> 00:17:11,839 scientific you know 484 00:17:14,870 --> 00:17:14,240 things done in a methodical manner in 485 00:17:18,230 --> 00:17:14,880 the study 486 00:17:20,549 --> 00:17:18,240 of collection of data about ufos 487 00:17:23,350 --> 00:17:20,559 and i did find um somebody in my 488 00:17:25,350 --> 00:17:23,360 hometown who is actually known 489 00:17:27,270 --> 00:17:25,360 over the world keith basterfield an 490 00:17:30,470 --> 00:17:27,280 excellent researcher who 491 00:17:31,990 --> 00:17:30,480 he approaches as a skeptic but not a 492 00:17:35,430 --> 00:17:32,000 debunking skeptic but as 493 00:17:38,310 --> 00:17:35,440 a somebody who will genuinely look at 494 00:17:39,710 --> 00:17:38,320 whether it's uh the sighting is 495 00:17:41,029 --> 00:17:39,720 somebody's imagination or a 496 00:17:42,870 --> 00:17:41,039 misidentification 497 00:17:45,750 --> 00:17:42,880 or actually there's something unusual in 498 00:17:49,909 --> 00:17:45,760 it and he has uncovered a lot of cases 499 00:17:53,029 --> 00:17:49,919 where he's eliminated the mistake aspect 500 00:17:55,590 --> 00:17:53,039 and focused on you know the 501 00:17:56,870 --> 00:17:55,600 the unusualness of it so i think he's 502 00:17:58,549 --> 00:17:56,880 somebody worth looking at 503 00:18:00,870 --> 00:17:58,559 so i thought actually it's really 504 00:18:03,110 --> 00:18:00,880 frightened me when i looked at his cases 505 00:18:04,950 --> 00:18:03,120 and i saw not only were there cases in 506 00:18:08,630 --> 00:18:04,960 the neighborhood that i was growing up 507 00:18:11,350 --> 00:18:08,640 at the time i was growing up but that 508 00:18:12,390 --> 00:18:11,360 there are scientists seriously 509 00:18:14,549 --> 00:18:12,400 investigating this 510 00:18:17,029 --> 00:18:14,559 topic that really fronted me because i 511 00:18:19,350 --> 00:18:17,039 thought oh my god this is probably real 512 00:18:20,870 --> 00:18:19,360 and i put it out of my mind oh that's 513 00:18:22,950 --> 00:18:20,880 andrew arnold 514 00:18:24,630 --> 00:18:22,960 and he's interviewing oh i don't know 515 00:18:27,029 --> 00:18:24,640 who he's interviewing 516 00:18:29,029 --> 00:18:27,039 okay that's keith basterfield oh that's 517 00:18:31,909 --> 00:18:29,039 keith masterfield oh god i don't even 518 00:18:34,470 --> 00:18:31,919 recognise him see i've never met i've 519 00:18:37,190 --> 00:18:34,480 only i've only talked to him on email 520 00:18:37,990 --> 00:18:37,200 and um he's a good friend of or he uh 521 00:18:40,230 --> 00:18:38,000 talks to 522 00:18:42,630 --> 00:18:40,240 my friend james rigney quite a bit 523 00:18:44,549 --> 00:18:42,640 especially about the wilson documents 524 00:18:46,230 --> 00:18:44,559 so he's done a lot of digging and 525 00:18:48,390 --> 00:18:46,240 uncovering there to 526 00:18:49,270 --> 00:18:48,400 establish whether the wilson documents 527 00:18:52,630 --> 00:18:49,280 are uh 528 00:18:55,430 --> 00:18:52,640 truthful or real or not so anyway 529 00:18:57,190 --> 00:18:55,440 keith basterfield um even even though 530 00:18:57,510 --> 00:18:57,200 he's from my hometown i've never met him 531 00:18:59,350 --> 00:18:57,520 and i 532 00:19:00,950 --> 00:18:59,360 have a great deal of admiration for him 533 00:19:02,310 --> 00:19:00,960 anyway moving on from keith basterfield 534 00:19:05,350 --> 00:19:02,320 back to the project 535 00:19:08,470 --> 00:19:05,360 um and what brought me to westall um 536 00:19:10,470 --> 00:19:08,480 the project was um the the 537 00:19:12,390 --> 00:19:10,480 we were working in an area which was 538 00:19:13,110 --> 00:19:12,400 very close to the site of the westall 539 00:19:15,430 --> 00:19:13,120 incident 540 00:19:16,950 --> 00:19:15,440 and so i took my team and we went down 541 00:19:19,909 --> 00:19:16,960 and visited the site 542 00:19:22,390 --> 00:19:19,919 and we discovered that these um the the 543 00:19:23,029 --> 00:19:22,400 local council has created a playground 544 00:19:26,950 --> 00:19:23,039 with a 545 00:19:28,789 --> 00:19:26,960 ufo like a kids play 546 00:19:31,510 --> 00:19:28,799 equipment there it is and that's judith 547 00:19:35,669 --> 00:19:31,520 mcginnis from 548 00:19:38,150 --> 00:19:35,679 geelong who's also an investigator 549 00:19:39,110 --> 00:19:38,160 in the geelong area you know she's a 550 00:19:42,310 --> 00:19:39,120 she's great 551 00:19:45,830 --> 00:19:42,320 so that play equipment was put there to 552 00:19:47,110 --> 00:19:45,840 mark um the spot not the exact spot that 553 00:19:51,350 --> 00:19:47,120 the ufo landed but the 554 00:19:53,669 --> 00:19:51,360 the just to um as a remembrance for the 555 00:19:56,630 --> 00:19:53,679 fact that it happened to mark the place 556 00:19:57,510 --> 00:19:56,640 and what's remarkable about westall 557 00:20:00,310 --> 00:19:57,520 interestingly 558 00:20:00,950 --> 00:20:00,320 is we went down to the place and i found 559 00:20:03,830 --> 00:20:00,960 that 560 00:20:05,669 --> 00:20:03,840 it's a very unremarkable place it's like 561 00:20:08,149 --> 00:20:05,679 sakura new mexico i found 562 00:20:10,070 --> 00:20:08,159 when we visited that place there was 563 00:20:12,350 --> 00:20:10,080 nothing remarkable about it 564 00:20:13,990 --> 00:20:12,360 yeah i've heard that it's 565 00:20:15,590 --> 00:20:14,000 unremarkability 566 00:20:17,350 --> 00:20:15,600 at the time that it happened i think 567 00:20:19,190 --> 00:20:17,360 shayna has already covered this with 568 00:20:21,830 --> 00:20:19,200 your previous um podcast 569 00:20:23,510 --> 00:20:21,840 that it was an area a semi-rural area on 570 00:20:26,870 --> 00:20:23,520 the fringes of the suburbs 571 00:20:30,070 --> 00:20:26,880 and with market gardens 572 00:20:32,149 --> 00:20:30,080 and now it's just fully suburban 573 00:20:34,230 --> 00:20:32,159 no market gardens and just that park and 574 00:20:35,190 --> 00:20:34,240 then you know not too far away from the 575 00:20:38,950 --> 00:20:35,200 school 576 00:20:39,510 --> 00:20:38,960 so um okay so to find out that there 577 00:20:42,710 --> 00:20:39,520 were 578 00:20:46,390 --> 00:20:42,720 so many people that had seen 579 00:20:46,950 --> 00:20:46,400 the same thing really turned my thinking 580 00:20:50,310 --> 00:20:46,960 around 581 00:20:51,590 --> 00:20:50,320 and i thought okay i would like to meet 582 00:20:54,470 --> 00:20:51,600 these people 583 00:20:57,669 --> 00:20:54,480 so the 50th anniversary rolled around 584 00:21:01,110 --> 00:20:57,679 and i didn't see anything on facebook or 585 00:21:02,950 --> 00:21:01,120 anywhere that was going to mark the 586 00:21:05,990 --> 00:21:02,960 event and so i thought okay 587 00:21:09,350 --> 00:21:06,000 um i'll invite people to a picnic 588 00:21:10,310 --> 00:21:09,360 um so i put out a public notice on 589 00:21:13,110 --> 00:21:10,320 facebook 590 00:21:14,789 --> 00:21:13,120 and extended the invitation to the 591 00:21:16,230 --> 00:21:14,799 witnesses and anybody else who's 592 00:21:18,789 --> 00:21:16,240 interested in coming 593 00:21:20,630 --> 00:21:18,799 and so we had a little barbecue and i 594 00:21:23,909 --> 00:21:20,640 remembered the day distinctly it was 595 00:21:27,270 --> 00:21:23,919 um raining it was 596 00:21:29,270 --> 00:21:27,280 a light drizzle and i was 597 00:21:31,270 --> 00:21:29,280 not sure that anybody would show up and 598 00:21:33,270 --> 00:21:31,280 i had a t-shirt printed up with westall 599 00:21:36,870 --> 00:21:33,280 on it so that people could identify 600 00:21:41,190 --> 00:21:36,880 me you know at least as somebody who was 601 00:21:44,870 --> 00:21:41,200 the point of contact and 602 00:21:46,549 --> 00:21:44,880 i met the witnesses and also 603 00:21:48,950 --> 00:21:46,559 what impressed me about these people was 604 00:21:52,230 --> 00:21:48,960 that this story had not changed 605 00:21:53,350 --> 00:21:52,240 after 50 years the type of person that 606 00:21:55,510 --> 00:21:53,360 they were they were not 607 00:21:57,590 --> 00:21:55,520 hippie new ages or freaks or drug 608 00:21:58,149 --> 00:21:57,600 smokers or alcoholics or anything like 609 00:22:00,710 --> 00:21:58,159 that 610 00:22:03,350 --> 00:22:00,720 they were salt of the earth people and 611 00:22:06,230 --> 00:22:03,360 they were not looking for this encounter 612 00:22:07,990 --> 00:22:06,240 um they hadn't probably had any kind of 613 00:22:11,270 --> 00:22:08,000 other encounters after that 614 00:22:12,390 --> 00:22:11,280 that's colin he's great he was on the 615 00:22:15,350 --> 00:22:12,400 oval 616 00:22:17,909 --> 00:22:15,360 when um and i think the the slide you 617 00:22:20,310 --> 00:22:17,919 showed previously he was showing um 618 00:22:21,350 --> 00:22:20,320 us where he saw it he was playing 619 00:22:23,110 --> 00:22:21,360 cricket 620 00:22:25,190 --> 00:22:23,120 and he was pointing where it was 621 00:22:26,230 --> 00:22:25,200 hovering the the silver saucer that he 622 00:22:28,630 --> 00:22:26,240 saw was offering 623 00:22:30,870 --> 00:22:28,640 just above the power lines so if you can 624 00:22:32,630 --> 00:22:30,880 imagine

seen or heard 643 00:23:08,070 --> 00:23:06,400 people talk about 644 00:23:10,149 --> 00:23:08,080 there was a lot of interaction but if 645 00:23:12,070 --> 00:23:10,159 you wouldn't mind like in a nutshell 646 00:23:13,510 --> 00:23:12,080 tell the person who's not aware of the 647 00:23:15,590 --> 00:23:13,520 case um 648 00:23:16,789 --> 00:23:15,600 what happened that day and what was the

00:23:59,120 rushing to the window to look outside 671 00:24:03,990 --> 00:24:02,159 um just to go i mean there's very 672 00:24:05,669 --> 00:24:04,000 everyone's different story but it was 673 00:24:08,149 --> 00:24:05,679 consistent that 674 00:24:09,750 --> 00:24:08,159 they all saw some something hovering 675 00:24:13,669 --> 00:24:09,760 above the power line 676 00:24:15,750 -->

00:24:30,000 light planes turned up 686 00:24:32,950 --> 00:24:31,520 and it seemed as though they were 687 00:24:34,390 --> 00:24:32,960 playing cat and mouse with these light 688 00:24:35,430 --> 00:24:34,400 planes and the kids were outside 689 00:24:38,710 --> 00:24:35,440 watching them 690 00:24:41,909 --> 00:24:38,720 um they were you have accounts from 691 00:24:43,990 --> 00:24:41,919

direction of 698 00:24:57,590 --> 00:24:55,520 and um they got quite close to the 699 00:24:58,870 --> 00:24:57,600 saucer which was hovering a few feet 700 00:25:01,750 --> 00:24:58,880 above the ground 701 00:25:03,190 --> 00:25:01,760 so yeah this is the grange this is a 702 00:25:05,830 --> 00:25:03,200 little reserve 703 00:25:07,750 --> 00:25:05,840 not far from the school um where the 704 00:25:09,750 --> 00:25:07,760 kids who used to do their athletics 705 00:25:11,029 --> 00:25:09,760 training or running around and i 706 00:25:14,549 --> 00:25:11,039 understand that there was a 707 00:25:16,310 --> 00:25:14,559 it was a sight of um teenage intrigue as 708 00:25:17,750 --> 00:25:16,320 well the kids would get up to like the 709 00:25:18,630 --> 00:25:17,760 older kids would get up to naughty 710 00:25:20,230 --> 00:25:18,640 things 711 00:25:21,830 --> 00:25:20,240 uh they'd sneak off to the grange and 712 00:25:23,750 --> 00:25:21,840 smoke cigarettes and 713 00:25:25,269 --> 00:25:23,760 kiss and stuff like that stuff that 714 00:25:28,230 --> 00:25:25,279 teenagers do so 715 00:25:28,789 --> 00:25:28,240 it was a well-known spot for the kids um 716 00:25:30,310 --> 00:25:28,799 i can 717 00:25:32,149 --> 00:25:30,320 i think in that last shot you can see 718 00:25:33,830 --> 00:25:32,159 the the saucer in the background the 719 00:25:35,350 -->

the 729 00:25:56,390 --> 00:25:53,360 phenomenon 730 00:25:59,510 --> 00:25:56,400 a movie by james fox um we'll see that 731 00:26:02,870 --> 00:25:59,520 the teacher was visited and 732 00:26:05,029 --> 00:26:02,880 uh he was fitted visited by um one i 733 00:26:08,149 --> 00:26:05,039 think he said in military one in a 734 00:26:10,630 --> 00:26:08,159 you know jacket that just said you know 735

945 00:34:09,829 --> 00:34:06,799 sightings where people have 946 00:34:12,310 --> 00:34:09,839 seen something by themselves 947 00:34:13,270 --> 00:34:12,320 lots and lots of cases of um i mean 948

961 00:34:41,669 --> 00:34:39,919 a lot of people 962 00:34:43,030 --> 00:34:41,679 the adults that lived in the area that 963 00:34:43,990 --> 00:34:43,040 weren't in the area that have passed 964 00:34:45,669 --> 00:34:44,000 away 965 00:34:49,109 --> 00:34:45,679 i think if you estimate those but i 966 00:34:50,470 --> 00:34:49,119 think um shane has spoken to what over a 967 00:34:52,470 --> 00:34:50,480 hundred people 968 00:34:54,790 --> 00:34:52,480 face to face about their experience but 969 00:34:57,990 --> 00:34:54,800 that's a lot 970 00:34:58,550 --> 00:34:58,000 right what that

00:35:10,230 --> 00:35:06,400 he said there were an estimated 500 975 00:35:11,589 --> 00:35:10,240 people that would have been around or 976 00:35:14,150 --> 00:35:11,599 had seen it 977 00:35:15,349 --> 00:35:14,160 but obviously he couldn't get to that to 978 00:35:16,790 --> 00:35:15,359 all of them because 979 00:35:18,790 --> 00:35:16,800 many of them were adults and passed away 980 00:35:19,990 --> 00:35:18,800 so he's only focusing on the the 981 00:35:23,349 --> 00:35:20,000 students 982 00:35:26,470 --> 00:35:23,359 that were 12 13 14 15. 983 00:35:29,670 --> 00:35:26,480 now

a silver craft not very far 1035 00:37:30,550 --> 00:37:27,440 away from him i think he said it was 1036 00:37:32,950 --> 00:37:30,560 a hundred feet away from him and it was 1037 00:37:35,190 --> 00:37:32,960 a lot i can't remember the exact figure 1038 00:37:38,310 --> 00:37:35,200 was it 20 or 30 feet up hovering 1039 00:37:40,069 --> 00:37:38,320 above the ground so he was quite close 1040 00:37:42,150 --> 00:37:40,079 another person that was quite close to i 1041 00:37:43,430 --> 00:37:42,160 think terry peck was the person that was 1042 00:37:47,750 --> 00:37:43,440 the closest to it 1043 00:37:48,230 --> 00:37:47,760 um but he saw what he saw was a silver 1044 00:37:49,589 --> 00:37:48,240 thing 1045 00:37:51,270 --> 00:37:49,599 and he thought what's going on is 1046 00:37:52,150 --> 00:37:51,280 somebody projecting an image from 1047 00:37:54,790 --> 00:37:52,160 somewhere 1048 00:37:56,150 --> 00:37:54,800 is somebody playing a trick and then as 1049 00:37:58,390 --> 00:37:56,160 he was watching it it 1050 00:37:59,430 --> 00:37:58,400 cycled through the different colors like 1051 00:38:03,030 --> 00:37:59,440 blue and 1052 00:38:06,069 --> 00:38:03,040 green and purple and it sort of 1053 00:38:07,109 --> 00:38:06,079 looked too he described it it was 1054 00:38:09,190 --> 00:38:07,119 looking 1055 00:38:10,550 --> 00:38:09,200 like it was losing transmission it was 1056 00:38:12,550 --> 00:38:10,560 kind of crackling or 1057 00:38:13,910 --> 00:38:12,560 you know like the static on the tv when 1058 00:38:16,470 --> 00:38:13,920 the there's no radio 1059 00:38:18,790 --> 00:38:16,480 no tv station at the end of the 1060 00:38:21,910 --> 00:38:18,800 transmission is sort of like it was 1061 00:38:25,190 --> 00:38:21,920 sort of all staticky and then um 1062 00:38:27,510 --> 00:38:25,200 it became translucent 1063 00:38:28,870 --> 00:38:27,520 and then he said it drifted down through 1064 00:38:33,030 --> 00:38:28,880 the trees 1065 00:38:35,589 --> 00:38:33,040 mean that it was 1066 00:38:37,030 --> 00:38:35,599 you know because the trees are as you 1067 00:38:37,910 --> 00:38:37,040 can see quite close together and i 1068 00:38:40,390 --> 00:38:37,920 couldn't see how 1069 00:38:41,750 --> 00:38:40,400 a crafted this size could go through the 1070 00:38:44,470 --> 00:38:41,760 trees and dodge them 1071 00:38:46,150 --> 00:38:44,480 and i said was it going around the trees 1072 00:38:47,829 --> 00:38:46,160 and dodging them how could it possibly 1073 00:38:50,630 --> 00:38:47,839 go through the trees 1074 00:38:52,870 --> 00:38:50,640 um and he said it was like the 1075 00:38:55,109 --> 00:38:52,880 consistency of smoke 1076 00:38:56,630 --> 00:38:55,119 so it had become like a ghost it had 1077 00:38:58,470 --> 00:38:56,640 become ghost-like and 1078 00:39:01,829 --> 00:38:58,480 drifted through the trees which is quite 1079 00:39:03,190 --> 00:39:01,839 amazing and 1080 00:39:05,589 --> 00:39:03,200 it's not the first time i've heard 1081 00:39:08,630 --> 00:39:05,599 something like that yeah 1082 00:39:10,950 --> 00:39:08,640 there are some similar accounts and um 1083 00:39:12,950 --> 00:39:10,960 and some that almost make you think it's 1084 00:39:16,069 --> 00:39:12,960 a multi-dimensional or 1085 00:39:17,670 --> 00:39:16,079 something you know uh it just 1086 00:39:19,829 --> 00:39:17,680 it doesn't make any sense but there are 1087 00:39:22,069 --> 00:39:19,839 many cases where people will say that 1088 00:39:23,670 --> 00:39:22,079 a ufo will just it'll be there and all 1089 00:39:25,589 --> 00:39:23,680 of a sudden it'll fade 1090 00:39:27,750 --> 00:39:25,599 and then or sometimes just show up in 1091 00:39:32,470 --> 00:39:27,760 another spot instantly 1092 00:39:33,990 --> 00:39:32,480 you know i mean just it's such a mystery 1093 00:39:36,150 --> 00:39:34,000 of what the heck it could possibly be 1094 00:39:38,790 --> 00:39:36,160 who knows 1095 00:39:40,150 --> 00:39:38,800 yeah so that was uh now was that any you 1096 00:39:40,870 --> 00:39:40,160 said he was pulling up carrots i love 1097 00:39:43,829 --> 00:39:40,880 that so 1098 00:39:44,710 --> 00:39:43,839 was that anywhere near west hall that 1099 00:39:46,470 --> 00:39:44,720 was right 1100 00:39:48,630 --> 00:39:46,480 right at the site and then he said the 1101 00:39:50,390 --> 00:39:48,640 children the children came running 1102 00:39:52,630 --> 00:39:50,400 after the like a few minutes later he 1103 00:39:56,230 --> 00:39:52,640 could hear the patter of 1104 00:39:57,190 --> 00:39:56,240 not so tiny feet running and um chasing 1105 00:40:00,550 --> 00:39:57,200 the ufo 1106 00:40:02,230 --> 00:40:00,560 and yeah so he was at the receiving end 1107 00:40:05,190 --> 00:40:02,240 where the ufo turned up 1108 00:40:06,470 --> 00:40:05,200 and then saw the kids chasing it and the 1109 00:40:08,390 --> 00:40:06,480 other thing that he said that was really 1110 00:40:11,109 --> 00:40:08,400 interesting at the time he said 1111 00:40:12,870 --> 00:40:11,119 the following year in the area where the 1112 00:40:15,829 --> 00:40:12,880 ufo had been 1113 00:40:17,109 --> 00:40:15,839 the potatoes they planted potatoes in in 1114 00:40:20,150 --> 00:40:17,119 that spot 1115 00:40:21,910 --> 00:40:20,160 and the potatoes were huge they were 1116 00:40:22,710 --> 00:40:21,920 like footballs they were abnormally 1117 00:40:24,150 --> 00:40:22,720 large 1118 00:40:25,750 --> 00:40:24,160 and he said they were good for nothing 1119 00:40:29,109 --> 00:40:25,760 they had to chuck them out there was 1120 00:40:31,430 --> 00:40:29,119 they were not not good for for selling 1121 00:40:35,030 --> 00:40:31,440 because they were just too big 1122 00:40:35,670 --> 00:40:35,040 so what the how do you explain that 1123 00:40:39,190 --> 00:40:35,680 there was some 1124 00:40:42,069 --> 00:40:39,200 effect on the soil of the ufo apparently 1125 00:40:44,069 --> 00:40:42,079 to make such big i mean growing the 1126 00:40:46,550 --> 00:40:44,079 potatoes normally each year and then one 1127 00:40:49,910 --> 00:40:46,560 year after the ufo 1128 00:40:53,030 --> 00:40:49,920 the potatoes are just enormous why 1129 00:40:54,630 --> 00:40:53,040 wow that is yeah that is something 1130 00:40:56,870 --> 00:40:54,640 there are a few cases where you hear 1131 00:40:59,109 --> 00:40:56,880 about the effects of 1132 00:41:00,950 --> 00:40:59,119 well for instance travis walton you know 1133 00:41:04,550 --> 00:41:00,960 where supposedly the 1134 00:41:07,750 --> 00:41:04,560 craft came down there's uh strange uh 1135 00:41:09,750 --> 00:41:07,760 uh tree ring growths you know 1136 00:41:11,510 --> 00:41:09,760 that so who knows what that you know i 1137 00:41:13,510 --> 00:41:11,520 mean there's all types of speculation 1138 00:41:14,950 --> 00:41:13,520 of what can do something like that some 1139 00:41:16,630 --> 00:41:14,960 people say it's uh 1140 00:41:19,270 --> 00:41:16,640 you know radiation i don't know if 1141 00:41:21,589 --> 00:41:19,280 that's if that's it 1142 00:41:23,190 --> 00:41:21,599 but um yeah some kind of radiation i 1143 00:41:27,190 --> 00:41:23,200 think jacques valet 1144 00:41:30,630 --> 00:41:27,200 has um made observations in his books 1145 00:41:34,790 --> 00:41:30,640 about the effects on on vegetation 1146 00:41:38,309 --> 00:41:34,800 so yeah yeah yeah so let's uh 1147 00:41:41,910 --> 00:41:38,319 um let's uh let's see we've got about 1148 00:41:42,470 --> 00:41:41,920 uh like uh 12 or 13 minutes before we go 1149 00:41:45,109 --> 00:41:42,480 into our 1150 00:41:45,670 --> 00:41:45,119 our break and so i would like to talk 1151 00:41:47,589 --> 00:41:45,680 about 1152 00:41:49,430 --> 00:41:47,599 the uh someone actually has a question 1153 00:41:52,790 --> 00:41:49,440 here let me just pop it up 1154 00:41:54,069 --> 00:41:52,800 did the potatoes get tested for 1155 00:41:58,309 --> 00:41:54,079 radiation 1156 00:42:03,270 --> 00:42:00,870 somebody was covertly testing all of 1157 00:42:04,470 --> 00:42:03,280 this but nothing has been released to 1158 00:42:07,990 --> 00:42:04,480 the public there are no 1159 00:42:09,190 --> 00:42:08,000 files for anybody to access nobody has 1160 00:42:12,870 --> 00:42:09,200 admitted anything 1161 00:42:15,030 --> 00:42:12,880 officially on this so as far as i know 1162 00:42:17,270 --> 00:42:15,040 they haven't 1163 00:42:18,630 --> 00:42:17,280 yeah well things potatoes are too big 1164 00:42:19,670 --> 00:42:18,640 and they just got chucked out that i 1165 00:42:22,790 --> 00:42:19,680 think that's 1166 00:42:23,109 --> 00:42:22,800 pretty much what happened yeah um one of 1167 00:42:26,230 --> 00:42:23,119 the 1168 00:42:29,109 --> 00:42:26,240 one of my favorite parts of um james 1169 00:42:30,550 --> 00:42:29,119 film um was also in australia i do 1170 00:42:33,990 --> 00:42:30,560 believe it's australia 1171 00:42:35,990 --> 00:42:34,000 where um the gentleman took a polaroid 1172 00:42:37,990 --> 00:42:36,000 of this craft when it was out in his 1173 00:42:40,550 --> 00:42:38,000 garden that blew me away that 1174 00:42:43,030 --> 00:42:40,560 that picture that polaroid that's 1175 00:42:45,510 --> 00:42:43,040 something that can't be faked 1176 00:42:46,470 --> 00:42:45,520 that was in the same year and in fact i 1177 00:42:49,829 --> 00:42:46,480 found in 1178 00:42:51,270 --> 00:42:49,839 um i've got some old versions of the 1179 00:42:53,910 --> 00:42:51,280 flying saucer review 1180 00:42:55,829 --> 00:42:53,920 which is a pre a publication from the 1181 00:42:57,349 --> 00:42:55,839 predecessor of buffalo which is called 1182 00:43:00,950 --> 00:42:57,359 vufors the victorian 1183 00:43:04,550 --> 00:43:03,750 victorian ufo research yeah that's right 1184 00:43:07,910 --> 00:43:04,560 they 1185 00:43:10,470 --> 00:43:07,920 um had an analysis i think i sent that 1186 00:43:14,390 --> 00:43:10,480 to you did you get that email 1187 00:43:16,069 --> 00:43:14,400 there was an analysis of a very geeky 1188 00:43:18,270 --> 00:43:16,079 must have been by an engineer or some 1189 00:43:20,630 --> 00:43:18,280 sort of um very um 1190 00:43:21,670 --> 00:43:20,640 detail-oriented person on the baldwin 1191 00:43:23,750 --> 00:43:21,680 photo 1192 00:43:25,190 --> 00:43:23,760 and there was a little snippet of 1193 00:43:28,550 --> 00:43:25,200 information which i 1194 00:43:29,829 --> 00:43:28,560 never seen before um i'm not aware of 1195 00:43:30,630 --> 00:43:29,839 and i'm not sure how many people are 1196 00:43:32,950 --> 00:43:30,640 aware of it 1197 00:43:35,750 --> 00:43:32,960 but this is the original research is 1198 00:43:37,109 --> 00:43:35,760 when the photograph came out in 1966 so 1199 00:43:39,670 --> 00:43:37,119 this publication was 1200 00:43:41,030 --> 00:43:39,680 printed around that time so the 1201 00:43:43,910 --> 00:43:41,040 photograph was taken 1202 00:43:44,870 --> 00:43:43,920 i think yeah that was days before or 1203 00:43:48,150 --> 00:43:44,880 days 1204 00:43:51,349 --> 00:43:48,160 from memory 1205 00:43:53,829 --> 00:43:51,359 um but in the uh 1206 00:43:55,510 --> 00:43:53,839 report that virfor was released in this 1207 00:43:59,030 --> 00:43:55,520 publication was that 1208 00:44:02,150 --> 00:43:59,040 it was seen hovering near a school 1209 00:44:03,349 --> 00:44:02,160 the same crap not the same school but it 1210 00:44:06,550 --> 00:44:03,359 was 1211 00:44:08,230 --> 00:44:06,560 oval 1212 00:44:09,670 --> 00:44:08,240 or something like that which i was not 1213 00:44:11,349 --> 00:44:09,680 aware of until 1214 00:44:13,030

--> 00:45:18,560 respected him i think he was a little 1242 00:45:24,309 --> 00:45:20,240 skeptical of him 1243 00:45:27,990 --> 00:45:24,319 um and uh yeah he's a fascinating 1244 00:45:29,109 --> 00:45:28,000 person to um have a complete whole show 1245 00:45:31,910 --> 00:45:29,119 about 1246 00:45:33,270 --> 00:45:31,920 yeah yeah so you also looked into the 1247 00:45:35,670 --> 00:45:33,280 frederick valentic 1248 00:45:37,990 --> 00:45:35,680 um um i i don't know if i pronounced 1249 00:45:42,950 --> 00:45:38,000 that right 1250 00:45:47,190 --> 00:45:45,670 the lintage okay yeah i've heard it's 1251 00:45:49,109 --> 00:45:47,200 said many different ways but that's 1252 00:45:52,230 --> 00:45:49,119 probably the right way you're right um 1253 00:45:53,910 --> 00:45:52,240 so uh what have you looked into about 1254 00:45:54,390 --> 00:45:53,920 that case i mean another fascinating 1255 00:45:56,309 --> 00:45:54,400 case 1256 00:45:57,829 --> 00:45:56,319 but quickly if you would for the person 1257 00:46:01,109 --> 00:45:57,839 that is unfamiliar with it 1258 00:46:02,390 --> 00:46:01,119 um just in a nutshell okay so fred 1259 00:46:05,270 --> 00:46:02,400 valentich left 1260 00:46:06,790 --> 00:46:05,280 uh 40 years ago he left the moorabbin 1261 00:46:07,510 --> 00:46:06,800 airport which is probably half an hour's 1262 00:46:11,510 --> 00:46:07,520 drive from 1263 00:46:15,990 --> 00:46:11,520 where i live um at dusk 1264 00:46:19,510 --> 00:46:16,000 and he um reported an unusual object 1265 00:46:23,430 --> 00:46:19,520 flying around him and over him to 1266 00:46:25,990 --> 00:46:23,440 traffic control um and he 1267 00:46:28,950 --> 00:46:26,000 oh well this is very quick version he 1268 00:46:30,950 --> 00:46:28,960 while he was talking to them he vanished 1269 00:46:32,710 --> 00:46:30,960 he was never to be seen again he was 1270 00:46:35,030 --> 00:46:32,720 doing a quick run 1271 00:46:35,750 --> 00:46:35,040 um to get up his flying hours he was 1272 00:46:38,950 --> 00:46:35,760 wanting to 1273 00:46:41,109 --> 00:46:38,960 train to be um an airline pilot 1274 00:46:42,390 --> 00:46:41,119 so he was flying like planes and also he 1275 00:46:45,270 --> 00:46:42,400 was a very um 1276 00:46:46,550 --> 00:46:45,280 skilled um aviator in that he would 1277 00:46:48,710 --> 00:46:46,560 participate in 1278 00:46:50,550 --> 00:46:48,720 in air shows and do loop-de-loops and 1279 00:46:53,270 --> 00:46:50,560 and you know crazy stuff 1280 00:46:54,230 --> 00:46:53,280 so he was um apparently pretty good at 1281 00:46:57,910 --> 00:46:54,240 what he did 1282 00:46:59,829 --> 00:46:57,920 and so he was no um novice 1283 00:47:01,750 --> 00:46:59,839 even though he was getting his uh ours 1284 00:47:04,230 --> 00:47:01,760 up he was adept at flying 1285 00:47:05,349 --> 00:47:04,240 and he knew his stuff and he was careful 1286 00:47:09,510 --> 00:47:05,359 um we 1287 00:47:12,630 --> 00:47:09,520 ran an event um on the 40th anniversary 1288 00:47:13,670 --> 00:47:12,640 of his disappearance and we held it at 1289 00:47:15,750 --> 00:47:13,680 the place 1290 00:47:17,270 --> 00:47:15,760 he was last seen which was the moorabbin 1291 00:47:20,630 --> 00:47:17,280 airport and they've got a little 1292 00:47:22,950 --> 00:47:20,640 um restaurant function center there so 1293 00:47:25,109 --> 00:47:22,960 we heard of our function there invited 1294 00:47:26,549 --> 00:47:25,119 people who were interested and we had a 1295 00:47:30,309 --> 00:47:26,559 very long 1296 00:47:33,750 --> 00:47:30,319 seminar um where andrew 1297 00:47:36,710 --> 00:47:33,760 arnold produced the 1298 00:47:38,230 --> 00:47:36,720 um the basics of the case the the 1299 00:47:38,950 --> 00:47:38,240 introduction to the case as to what 1300 00:47:41,270 --> 00:47:38,960 happened 1301 00:47:42,950 --> 00:47:41,280 and then we had one of the researchers 1302 00:47:44,069 --> 00:47:42,960 that was there at the time working with 1303 00:47:46,309 --> 00:47:44,079 paul norman 1304 00:47:49,349 --> 00:47:46,319 who investigated the case thoroughly at 1305 00:47:52,470 --> 00:47:49,359 the time and that's john ortil 1306 00:47:56,390 --> 00:47:52,480 and he gave a fantastic very detailed 1307 00:47:57,030 --> 00:47:56,400 um rundown of what how they investigated 1308 00:47:59,270 --> 00:47:57,040 the case 1309 00:48:00,630 --> 00:47:59,280 and what they discovered and what they 1310 00:48:02,950 --> 00:48:00,640 they couldn't discover 1311 00:48:04,309 --> 00:48:02,960 um so there is a video of that it's 1312 00:48:05,349 --> 00:48:04,319 about four hours long you'd have to 1313 00:48:08,309 --> 00:48:05,359 break it up into 1314 00:48:09,990 --> 00:48:08,319 lots of viewing sessions but if you're 1315 00:48:13,510 --> 00:48:10,000 interested in the john orchard 1316 00:48:16,790 --> 00:48:13,520 part as to what happened there 1317 00:48:19,510 --> 00:48:16,800 that's really worth looking at so um 1318 00:48:20,549 --> 00:48:19,520 yeah so it's a case that's spoken about 1319 00:48:23,829 --> 00:48:20,559 all over the world 1320 00:48:25,829 --> 00:48:23,839 what happened to this pilot um i don't 1321 00:48:27,910 --> 00:48:25,839 know how many other cases there are of i 1322 00:48:29,589 --> 00:48:27,920 think you're doing a shower on on 1323 00:48:31,430 --> 00:48:29,599 aren't you of people that have 1324 00:48:33,750 --> 00:48:31,440 disappeared in airplanes 1325 00:48:34,950 --> 00:48:33,760 no that was a blog we have a blog on our 1326 00:48:37,270 --> 00:48:34,960 website now 1327 00:48:37,990 --> 00:48:37,280 where uh charles lear the blogger for 1328 00:48:41,109 --> 00:48:38,000 this uh 1329 00:48:41,990 --> 00:48:41,119 podcast has written one and and and that 1330 00:48:44,549 --> 00:48:42,000 case in 1331 00:48:47,270 --> 00:48:44,559 particular is in that as well you know 1332 00:48:50,470 --> 00:48:47,280 as uh just a listing but it's not 1333 00:48:53,510 --> 00:48:50,480 the only thing um that has happened 1334 00:48:56,950 --> 00:48:53,520 there's a few others there's the mantel 1335 00:48:59,430 --> 00:48:56,960 um case where not not you know 1336 00:49:02,069 --> 00:48:59,440 had it didn't disappear but it was a it 1337 00:49:03,829 --> 00:49:02,079 was a crash involved in that 1338 00:49:06,069 --> 00:49:03,839 and there's some others i can't really 1339 00:49:09,270 --> 00:49:06,079 excite them off the top of my head but 1340 00:49:11,270 --> 00:49:09,280 yeah it's all interesting 1341 00:49:13,589 --> 00:49:11,280 now you had given me some pictures 1342 00:49:16,470 --> 00:49:13,599 because you went to the area where 1343 00:49:17,910 --> 00:49:16,480 supposedly it could have gone down is 1344 00:49:21,349 --> 00:49:17,920 that what it is 1345 00:49:24,950 --> 00:49:21,359 well we we had um at the event 1346 00:49:26,950 --> 00:49:24,960 um steve roby the traffic controller 1347 00:49:28,470 --> 00:49:26,960 the one that the last person that spoke 1348 00:49:29,829 --> 00:49:28,480 to fred valentich 1349 00:49:32,390 --> 00:49:29,839 and he brought with him a couple of 1350 00:49:34,630 --> 00:49:32,400 mates who were also experienced pilots 1351 00:49:36,870 --> 00:49:34,640 and um and one of them i think ran an 1352 00:49:38,230 --> 00:49:36,880 airport was managing an airport 1353 00:49:40,230 --> 00:49:38,240 and i don't know if it came out in the 1354 00:49:41,670 --> 00:49:40,240 video but i do remember him speaking up 1355 00:49:45,829 --> 00:49:41,680 and saying that he's flown 1356 00:49:47,750 --> 00:49:45,839 over the area countless times 1357 00:49:49,430 --> 00:49:47,760 um there was a theory that he could have 1358 00:49:50,630 --> 00:49:49,440 gone that fred could have not gone down 1359 00:49:51,990 --> 00:49:50,640 in the forest so 1360 00:49:53,670 --> 00:49:52,000 i don't know do you want to bring up the 1361 00:49:56,309 --> 00:49:53,680 pictures now that's a 1362 00:49:57,670 --> 00:49:56,319 picture of the forest part of the fog 1363 00:50:00,230 --> 00:49:57,680 that's a canopy 1364 00:50:02,630 --> 00:50:00,240 and this is this amazing rugged 1365 00:50:05,109 --> 00:50:02,640 coastline it's a it's a big tourist spot 1366 00:50:06,950 --> 00:50:05,119 that's a winter shot of it but fred was 1367 00:50:08,069 --> 00:50:06,960 flying in springtime so 1368 00:50:10,630 --> 00:50:08,079 i don't know if we've got another 1369 00:50:12,630 --> 00:50:10,640 picture um which i've sent you 1370 00:50:13,910 --> 00:50:12,640 which shows the area i have the cute 1371 00:50:16,309 --> 00:50:13,920 little koala bear 1372 00:50:17,190 --> 00:50:16,319 i love those things okay that shows that 1373 00:50:19,990 --> 00:50:17,200 the area 1374 00:50:21,510 --> 00:50:20,000 is thickly forested and koalas live 1375 00:50:24,790 --> 00:50:21,520 there 1376 00:50:27,030 --> 00:50:24,800 so on one side you've got this rugged 1377 00:50:30,870 --> 00:50:27,040 coastline and then inland is this 1378 00:50:33,750 --> 00:50:30,880 amazing forest and um 1379 00:50:34,710 --> 00:50:33,760 so the weather was not like that it was 1380 00:50:37,750 --> 00:50:34,720 apparently quite 1381 00:50:39,270 --> 00:50:37,760 clear um it was when he was flying it 1382 00:50:40,950 --> 00:50:39,280 was still light it was 1383 00:50:43,670 --> 00:50:40,960 fading light but it wasn't actually 1384 00:50:46,950 --> 00:50:43,680 night time so about 7 p.m 1385 00:50:48,710 --> 00:50:46,960 our time in spring is still quite 1386 00:50:50,390 --> 00:50:48,720 you know it's just just the light is 1387 00:50:54,470 --> 00:50:50,400 fading um 1388 00:50:55,829 --> 00:50:54,480 and he um yeah so basically the search 1389 00:50:57,589 --> 00:50:55,839 was taken over the sea 1390 00:50:59,670 --> 00:50:57,599 so we've got best like this is the 1391 00:51:03,030 --> 00:50:59,680 bottom of australia where we've got 1392 00:51:04,390 --> 00:51:03,040 um a very tempestuous ocean uh leading 1393 00:51:06,630 --> 00:51:04,400 to tasmania 1394 00:51:09,030 --> 00:51:06,640 and so they thought maybe he could have 1395 00:51:11,589 --> 00:51:09,040 gone off course and 1396 00:51:12,230 --> 00:51:11,599 vanished in the ocean or he maybe he 1397 00:51:14,390 --> 00:51:12,240 could have 1398 00:51:15,589 --> 00:51:14,400 gone off course and and vanished over 1399 00:51:17,750 --> 00:51:15,599 into the forest 1400 00:51:18,790 --> 00:51:17,760 and so this fellow who ran the airport 1401 00:51:20,470 --> 00:51:18,800 the experience of 1402 00:51:22,950 --> 00:51:20,480 i can't remember his name was saying 1403 00:51:24,710 --> 00:51:22,960 that you know if he had 1404 00:51:26,230 --> 00:51:24,720 perished in the forest he they would 1405 00:51:27,990 --> 00:51:26,240 have probably found 1406 00:51:29,670 --> 00:51:28,000 the remains of the craft but nothing has 1407 00:51:31,190 --> 00:51:29,680 been found um 1408 00:51:33,190 --> 00:51:31,200 rhonda rushton i don't know if you can 1409 00:51:35,670 --> 00:51:33,200 bring up the picture of um 1410 00:51:36,790 --> 00:51:35,680 ronda at the lighthouse oh yes i have 1411 00:51:39,589 --> 00:51:36,800 that one yeah 1412 00:51:40,470 --> 00:51:39,599 rhonda was his fiancee she knew him very 1413 00:51:43,750 --> 00:51:40,480 well and we 1414 00:51:46,390 --> 00:51:43,760 i did it with her um she 1415 00:51:47,510 --> 00:51:46,400 was very close to him preceding his 1416 00:51:49,829 --> 00:51:47,520 disappearance 1417 00:51:51,589 --> 00:51:49,839 he was planning he like there was a 1418 00:51:52,470 --> 00:51:51,599 theory that he was suicidal he was 1419 00:51:55,270 --> 00:51:52,480 apparently not 1420 00:51:56,710 --> 00:51:55,280 suicidal at all he was a happy guy and 1421 00:51:57,829 --> 00:51:56,720 they were planning to get married and 1422 00:52:01,109 --> 00:51:57,839 have children 1423 00:52:03,910 --> 00:52:01,119 um so and she was actually going to be 1424 00:52:06,710 --> 00:52:03,920 on that flight with him but through um 1425 00:52:08,790 --> 00:52:06,720 amazing set of circumstances she 1426 00:52:10,630 --> 00:52:08,800 missed out on getting onto the like 1427 00:52:12,710 --> 00:52:10,640 because he would take her on on little 1428 00:52:16,230 --> 00:52:12,720 joy rides around the area 1429 00:52:18,630 --> 00:52:16,240 and um because in the days of 1430 00:52:20,150 --> 00:52:18,640 no mobile phones she wasn't able to get 1431 00:52:21,030 --> 00:52:20,160 in contact with him and say that she was 1432 00:52:22,790 --> 00:52:21,040 running late 1433 00:52:24,470 --> 00:52:22,800 and so he took off on his scheduled 1434 00:52:26,309 --> 00:52:24,480 flight without her 1435 00:52:28,069 --> 00:52:26,319 and so she it could have been two people 1436 00:52:32,950 --> 00:52:28,079 disappearing not just one 1437 00:52:34,790 --> 00:52:32,960 um but yeah so tragically she um 1438 00:52:36,630 --> 00:52:34,800 she was saying at the time she did not 1439 00:52:38,870 --> 00:52:36,640 want to believe that it was

01:00:58,640 that don't [\h__\h] and 1643 01:01:01,750 --> 01:01:00,880 i don't see i mean they had a lot of 1644 01:01:03,349 --> 01:01:01,760 [\h__\h] well 1645 01:01:06,150 --> 01:01:03,359 if i

01:01:11,599 media laid on them because nobody knew 1649 01:01:14,630 --> 01:01:13,119 i mean i think if it happened today 1650 01:01:15,910 --> 01:01:14,640 there would be more of an openness and 1651 01:01:16,710 --> 01:01:15,920 people think oh yeah there is a 1652 01:01:18,710 --> 01:01:16,720 possibility 1653 01:01:20,710 --> 01:01:18,720 understanding a little bit more about 1654 01:01:21,190 --> 01:01:20,720 you know the weird wonders of physics 1655 01:01:26,470 --> 01:01:21,200 and 1656 01:01:28,230 --> 01:01:26,480 stuff on the internet to read about 1657 01:01:29,829 -->

1664 01:01:44,950 --> 01:01:43,119 in western australia so not exactly the 1665 01:01:46,230 --> 01:01:44,960 same area but a similar area in the 1666 01:01:49,349 --> 01:01:46,240 middle of nowhere out 1667 01:01:52,069 --> 01:01:49,359 in the outback and he 1668 01:01:53,430 --> 01:01:52,079 this fellow was they called him mr 1669 01:01:56,549 --> 01:01:53,440 harris i'm not sure if it was 1670

get into 1673 01:02:03,990 --> 01:02:02,079 that case because that case is 1674 01:02:05,990 --> 01:02:04,000 that is one i do want to talk about so 1675 01:02:09,270 --> 01:02:06,000 let's play this

01:04:58,720 in a desolate area right 1758 01:05:03,990 --> 01:05:01,920 there was there it was was it the 1759 01:05:06,230 --> 01:05:04,000 outback actually 1760 01:05:08,470 --> 01:05:06,240 it was a a stretch of road called the 1761 01:05:10,150 --> 01:05:08,480 nullarbor plane 1762 01:05:11,750 --> 01:05:10,160 because called the nullable because it 1763 01:05:13,829 --> 01:05:11,760 has absolutely no tree so 1764 01:05:15,750 --> 01:05:13,839 it's pretty much a desert area and it 1765 01:05:16,789 --> 01:05:15,760 takes four days i think four days to 1766 01:05:20,150 --> 01:05:16,799 drive from 1767 01:05:22,549 --> 01:05:20,160 adelaide to to perth so that gives you 1768 01:05:25,750 --> 01:05:22,559 an idea it's a very long stretch of road 1769 01:05:26,390 --> 01:05:25,760 so um where does someone get fuel petrol 1770 01:05:28,789 --> 01:05:26,400 on 1771 01:05:29,910 --> 01:05:28,799 i think there's a couple of fuel stops 1772 01:05:32,710 --> 01:05:29,920 it's pretty much 1773 01:05:34,309 --> 01:05:32,720 virtually nothing like tiny towns or or 1774 01:05:37,910 --> 01:05:34,319 a few i haven't actually been 1775 01:05:38,870 --> 01:05:37,920 across there myself but i know people 1776 01:05:42,150 --> 01:05:38,880 who have 1777 01:05:44,710 --> 01:05:42,160 and so yeah there are no virtually no 1778 01:05:45,510 --> 01:05:44,720 townships or very few townships um along 1779 01:05:49,109 --> 01:05:45,520 the way 1780 01:05:51,910 --> 01:05:49,119 um so very desolate there was 1781 01:05:53,589 --> 01:05:51,920 uh another witness at least a a truck 1782 01:05:54,950 --> 01:05:53,599 driver they said that there was a lady 1783 01:05:57,990 --> 01:05:54,960 truck driver who 1784 01:06:00,150 --> 01:05:58,000 who saw what happened as well um 1785 01:06:02,230 --> 01:06:00,160 there was another news report which i've 1786 01:06:06,470 --> 01:06:02,240 sent you we may not have time to look at 1787 01:06:08,390 --> 01:06:06,480 um where um a journalist delved in 1788 01:06:09,589 --> 01:06:08,400 into it and said that at around the same 1789 01:06:11,670 --> 01:06:09,599 time there were some 1790 01:06:12,870 --> 01:06:11,680 fishermen that see some fishing ships 1791 01:06:15,990 --> 01:06:12,880 that were being 1792 01:06:19,430 --> 01:06:16,000 harassed by a ufo 1793 01:06:20,390 --> 01:06:19,440 um so yeah there was certainly something 1794 01:06:22,950 --> 01:06:20,400 going on 1795 01:06:24,710 --> 01:06:22,960 uh repeatedly at that time and uh if i 1796 01:06:26,150 --> 01:06:24,720 just go back to the other case which 1797 01:06:28,710 --> 01:06:26,160 i've discovered recently 1798 01:06:30,630 --> 01:06:28,720 in 1967 a similar thing happened in a 1799 01:06:33,670 --> 01:06:30,640 similar place 1800 01:06:35,270 --> 01:06:33,680 to a guy who he was didn't have any 1801 01:06:37,190 --> 01:06:35,280 witnesses but they did 1802 01:06:38,390 --> 01:06:37,200 put him through a psychiatric uh 1803 01:06:41,670 --> 01:06:38,400 examination 1804 01:06:44,789 --> 01:06:41,680 as well um he was um 1805 01:06:46,549 --> 01:06:44,799 driving um at 60 miles an hour 1806 01:06:48,309 --> 01:06:46,559 this is before our metric conversion so 1807 01:06:51,510 --> 01:06:48,319 we were using miles 1808 01:06:55,349 --> 01:06:51,520 per hour and he um 1809 01:06:57,270 --> 01:06:55,359 had a light um 1810 01:06:59,349 --> 01:06:57,280 immerse him like he was immersed in a 1811 01:07:01,430 --> 01:06:59,359 beam of light which 1812 01:07:02,470 --> 01:07:01,440 had him emanated from a ufo that had 1813 01:07:05,990 --> 01:07:02,480 turned up 1814 01:07:07,270 --> 01:07:06,000 and um his he had this sensation that 1815 01:07:10,510 --> 01:07:07,280 the car 1816 01:07:13,109 --> 01:07:10,520 had um stopped so it 1817 01:07:15,190 --> 01:07:13,119 instantaneously stopped going from 60 1818 01:07:18,230 --> 01:07:15,200 miles an hour to stopping 1819 01:07:20,870 --> 01:07:18,240 and they had a physicist um this is the 1820 01:07:21,589 --> 01:07:20,880 vuforce people had examined the case had 1821 01:07:24,710 --> 01:07:21,599 a physicist 1822 01:07:26,630 --> 01:07:24,720 comment on this um they 1823 01:07:28,230 --> 01:07:26,640 the physicist really had a problem that 1824 01:07:31,430 --> 01:07:28,240 the car had 1825 01:07:34,549 --> 01:07:31,440 was able to stop completely at 1826 01:07:37,750 --> 01:07:34,559 with no feeling of deceleration and then 1827 01:07:39,990 --> 01:07:37,760 start up again and the the driver the 1828 01:07:41,430 --> 01:07:40,000 the witness reported that the radio and 1829 01:07:41,990 --> 01:07:41,440 the engine and everything had stopped 1830 01:07:45,270 --> 01:07:42,000 during the time 1831 01:07:46,789 --> 01:07:45,280 that the beam was on him um and 1832 01:07:48,630 --> 01:07:46,799 the physicist was saying if there's no 1833 01:07:50,870 --> 01:07:48,640 feeling of deceleration 1834 01:07:52,630 --> 01:07:50,880 and the car had stopped it would have 1835 01:07:53,829 --> 01:07:52,640 played havoc with his body he could not 1836 01:07:56,950 --> 01:07:53,839 have stopped it would 1837 01:07:59,270 --> 01:07:56,960 would have been impossible um so no 1838 01:08:01,109 --> 01:07:59,280 change of speed and he would have just 1839 01:08:02,710 --> 01:08:01,119 and it would have affected the car as 1840 01:08:05,029 --> 01:08:02,720 well um 1841 01:08:06,470 --> 01:08:05,039 so yeah it was a similar thing where um 1842 01:08:09,589 --> 01:08:06,480 an object appeared 1843 01:08:13,029 --> 01:08:09,599 you know like a bright light appeared 1844 01:08:16,470 --> 01:08:13,039 hovered over the car shone its beam down 1845 01:08:19,669 --> 01:08:16,480 created these strange effects um and 1846 01:08:27,910 --> 01:08:19,679 the witness survived to tell the story 1847 01:08:32,709 --> 01:08:30,550 if i was doing that interview not that 1848 01:08:33,189 --> 01:08:32,719 i'm any better than the interviewer at 1849 01:08:35,749 --> 01:08:33,199 all 1850 01:08:36,470 --> 01:08:35,759 but i mean i would ask okay so he he 1851 01:08:39,110 --> 01:08:36,480 blocks out 1852 01:08:40,309 --> 01:08:39,120 um i can't remember his name the the the 1853 01:08:41,990 --> 01:08:40,319 one that was driving 1854 01:08:43,749 --> 01:08:42,000 he said that he just blacked out and he 1855 01:08:45,990 --> 01:08:43,759 doesn't remember what happened 1856 01:08:47,030 --> 01:08:46,000 well what about everyone else did they 1857 01:08:48,870 --> 01:08:47,040 black out too 1858 01:08:50,390 --> 01:08:48,880 i mean they didn't there was no 1859 01:08:52,630 --> 01:08:50,400 discussion about that 1860 01:08:53,749 --> 01:08:52,640 um but it makes it sounds like a failed 1861 01:08:55,910 --> 01:08:53,759 abduction 1862 01:08:56,950 --> 01:08:55,920 attempt or something like that you know 1863 01:08:59,510 --> 01:08:56,960 possibly 1864 01:09:01,030 --> 01:08:59,520 but um it just seems like there's still 1865 01:09:03,510 --> 01:09:01,040 a lot more questions 1866 01:09:04,950 --> 01:09:03,520 to ask that that family did they ever 1867 01:09:06,550 --> 01:09:04,960 talk about it after that 1868 01:09:09,110 --> 01:09:06,560 that was only 36 hours after the 1869 01:09:11,110 --> 01:09:09,120 incident they were grilled by the media 1870 01:09:15,269 --> 01:09:11,120 it was a media sensation 1871 01:09:16,950 --> 01:09:15,279 um and then they were so badly treated 1872 01:09:18,950 --> 01:09:16,960 about that that they refused to talk 1873 01:09:20,709 --> 01:09:18,960 about it to anyone ever again 1874 01:09:22,470 --> 01:09:20,719 which is really tragic because i think 1875 01:09:23,749 --> 01:09:22,480 they could have a lot to offer if people 1876 01:09:25,749 --> 01:09:23,759 ask the right questions 1877 01:09:27,189 --> 01:09:25,759 and i think i'll try and dig up um a 1878 01:09:31,349 --> 01:09:27,199 little more about 1879 01:09:34,229 --> 01:09:31,359 what was encountered at the time by the 1880 01:09:36,229 --> 01:09:34,239 ufo researchers but certainly there was 1881 01:09:37,829 --> 01:09:36,239 an interview that i don't 1882 01:09:40,070 --> 01:09:37,839 know we probably won't be able to show 1883 01:09:43,110 --> 01:09:40,080 that one where there's a 1884 01:09:44,149 --> 01:09:43,120 a well-known um uh journalist called 1885 01:09:45,990 --> 01:09:44,159 darren hinch 1886 01:09:47,749 --> 01:09:46,000 he's very well known here in australia 1887 01:09:49,669 --> 01:09:47,759 and he even made it to parliament he was 1888 01:09:51,269 --> 01:09:49,679 until recently serving um 1889 01:09:52,789 --> 01:09:51,279 as an independent member i think in 1890 01:09:56,149 --> 01:09:52,799 parliament and he 1891 01:09:59,270 --> 01:09:56,159 was um he made his himself known 1892 01:10:00,630 --> 01:09:59,280 for um supporting people who had been 1893 01:10:03,350 --> 01:10:00,640 cases of 1894 01:10:04,950 --> 01:10:03,360 victims of sexual abuse and he was he 1895 01:10:05,669 --> 01:10:04,960 got into a lot of trouble because he 1896 01:10:08,630 --> 01:10:05,679 would name 1897 01:10:09,830 --> 01:10:08,640 um the perpetrators on air and causes a 1898 01:10:13,189 --> 01:10:09,840 lot of controversy 1899 01:10:13,830 --> 01:10:13,199 because um yeah he wasn't supposed to do 1900 01:10:17,669 --> 01:10:13,840 that 1901 01:10:21,270 --> 01:10:17,679 um but yeah he would be supporting of um 1902 01:10:23,430 --> 01:10:21,280 survivors of of of abuse yet he 1903 01:10:24,709 --> 01:10:23,440 himself when he was interviewing these 1904 01:10:26,790 --> 01:10:24,719 people at the time 1905 01:10:27,910 --> 01:10:26,800 made a disparaging comment about little 1906 01:10:30,470 --> 01:10:27,920 green men and just 1907 01:10:31,910 --> 01:10:30,480 he just made it plain that it was an 1908 01:10:33,430 --> 01:10:31,920 unbelievable story 1909 01:10:35,189 --> 01:10:33,440 and i thought on one hand these people 1910 01:10:35,910 --> 01:10:35,199 have been traumatized by something very 1911 01:10:39,510 --> 01:10:35,920 weird 1912 01:10:41,669 --> 01:10:39,520 and he does not support them yet yeah 1913 01:10:43,350 --> 01:10:41,679 yeah just i just found that confusing 1914 01:10:45,030 --> 01:10:43,360 that he would um 1915 01:10:46,390 --> 01:10:45,040 you know believe one case but not 1916 01:10:49,750 --> 01:10:46,400 believe another 1917 01:10:52,550 --> 01:10:49,760 yeah that's not too kind um yeah 1918 01:10:53,830 --> 01:10:52,560 uh yeah that is that's that's a very 1919 01:10:55,510 --> 01:10:53,840 interesting case i 1920 01:10:57,030 --> 01:10:55,520 i don't think i ever heard of that one 1921 01:11:00,390 --> 01:10:57,040 now i think um 1922 01:11:02,470 --> 01:11:00,400 the woman said that she reached up on 1923 01:11:02,870 --> 01:11:02,480 top of the car and it felt like a sponge 1924 01:11:07,189 --> 01:11:02,880 like 1925 01:11:08,790 --> 01:11:07,199 did anyone ever look at the surface of 1926 01:11:12,149 --> 01:11:08,800 the top of their car 1927 01:11:15,830 --> 01:11:12,159 yeah they uh found that there was um 1928 01:11:18,709 --> 01:11:15,840 a whole lot of dust like dark black dust 1929 01:11:20,149 --> 01:11:18,719 and it was taken for analysis and we 1930 01:11:22,709 --> 01:11:20,159 don't know what the findings 1931 01:11:24,709 --> 01:11:22,719 of i think that they were not able to 1932 01:11:26,229 --> 01:11:24,719 conclude what it came from 1933 01:11:29,430 --> 01:11:26,239 but once again that's something that 1934 01:11:33,990 --> 01:11:29,440 needs a little little more scrutiny just 1935 01:11:38,070 --> 01:11:34,000 um yeah a lot of mysteries about um 1936 01:11:40,630 --> 01:11:38,080 the case and the physical evidence 1937 01:11:42,229 --> 01:11:40,640 now um when we go back and we have a 1938 01:11:42,709 --> 01:11:42,239 question came up just a second i'll ask 1939 01:11:46,149 --> 01:11:42,719 that 1940 01:11:49,750 --> 01:11:46,159 um going back to the west all case and 1941 01:11:51,270 --> 01:11:49,760 the teacher that was harassed um it's 1942 01:11:53,990 --> 01:11:51,280 he's he mentioned that there was a 1943 01:11:57,189 --> 01:11:54,000 military uh one military 1944 01:12:00,149 --> 01:11:57,199 uh person in uniform um so 1945 01:12:02,310 --> 01:12:00,159 does the military as far as you know in 1946 01:12:04,870 --> 01:12:02,320 australia get involved in these cases 1947 01:12:05,510 --> 01:12:04,880 and looking into them or or were they 1948 01:12:07,350 --> 01:12:05,520 also 1949 01:12:09,590 --> 01:12:07,360 the people that were telling them at 1950 01:12:12,070 --> 01:12:09,600 westall not to talk about this 1951 01:12:13,350 --> 01:12:12,080 yeah the witnesses report that people in 1952 01:12:15,430 --> 01:12:13,360 uniform turned up 1953 01:12:17,510 --> 01:12:15,440 when i asked them can they remember any 1954 01:12:19,669 --> 01:12:17,520 kind of insignia on their uniform 1955 01:12:21,270 --> 01:12:19,679 nobody could remember seeing any 1956 01:12:23,270 --> 01:12:21,280 insignia 1957 01:12:24,950 --> 01:12:23,280 i think it could be a couple of things 1958 01:12:26,709 --> 01:12:24,960 they were children and they didn't think 1959 01:12:27,430 --> 01:12:26,719 to take notice and there was a lot going 1960 01:12:29,669 --> 01:12:27,440 on 1961 01:12:31,990 --> 01:12:29,679 or maybe they were just wearing uniforms 1962 01:12:35,430 --> 01:12:32,000 which were not marked which was 1963 01:12:38,630 --> 01:12:35,440 a bit strange so 1964 01:12:41,750 --> 01:12:38,640 and even the adult um as far as we know 1965 01:12:43,590 --> 01:12:41,760 andrew greenwood did not i don't know 1966 01:12:44,390 --> 01:12:43,600 how he couldn't have noticed if it said 1967 01:12:47,669 --> 01:12:44,400 army or 1968 01:12:48,950 --> 01:12:47,679 air force or navy i think he 1969 01:12:50,790 --> 01:12:48,960 probably that would have been something 1970 01:12:51,830 --> 01:12:50,800 that stuck in his mind but that didn't 1971 01:12:54,870 --> 01:12:51,840 come out 1972 01:12:57,189 --> 01:12:54,880 um he may have been asked i'm not sure i 1973 01:13:00,229 --> 01:12:57,199 would be surprised if he wasn't asked 1974 01:13:01,830 --> 01:13:00,239 um if he remembered what sort of i 1975 01:13:04,390 --> 01:13:01,840 believe that they were 1976 01:13:04,870 --> 01:13:04,400 unmarked but military-looking oh 1977 01:13:07,830 --> 01:13:04,880 actually 1978 01:13:08,550 --> 01:13:07,840 evan the witness who who saw the the the 1979 01:13:10,550 --> 01:13:08,560 circle 1980 01:13:12,229 --> 01:13:10,560 left the the trace left in the ground i 1981 01:13:14,790 --> 01:13:12,239 think he also 1982 01:13:16,070 --> 01:13:14,800 couldn't he was a uni student he 1983 01:13:19,030 --> 01:13:16,080 couldn't remember 1984 01:13:20,709 --> 01:13:19,040 any kind of markings or insignia and 1985 01:13:21,830 --> 01:13:20,719 also you'll see in the documentary that 1986 01:13:27,750 --> 01:13:21,840 they 1987 01:13:29,510 --> 01:13:27,760 i mean if you look at the distances um 1988 01:13:30,950 --> 01:13:29,520 that the military-based people would 1989 01:13:33,910 --> 01:13:30,960 have have to travel 1990 01:13:35,270 --> 01:13:33,920 um they were onto it they were aware 1991 01:13:38,310 --> 01:13:35,280 that it was happening 1992 01:13:41,990 --> 01:13:38,320 because of the speed at which they 1993 01:13:45,110 --> 01:13:42,000 they showed up after the saucer 1994 01:13:46,310 --> 01:13:45,120 was present yeah that that is not an 1995 01:13:49,350 --> 01:13:46,320 uncommon theme you hear 1996 01:13:50,229 --> 01:13:49,360 you hear about that um that they somehow 1997 01:13:52,630 --> 01:13:50,239 seem to show up 1998 01:13:53,990 --> 01:13:52,640 you know you talk about like keksburg uh 1999 01:13:56,630 --> 01:13:54,000 there's a bunch of uh 2000 01:13:57,430 --> 01:13:56,640 um incidents where the military all of a 2001 01:14:00,310 --> 01:13:57,440 sudden they're just 2002 01:14:00,709 --> 01:14:00,320 instantly there and now this question is 2003 01:14:05,350 --> 01:14:00,719 uh 2004 01:14:09,270 --> 01:14:05,360 i do you know anything about the middle 2005 01:14:13,510 --> 01:14:09,280 mount uh queensland ufo case of july 19 2006 01:14:15,990 --> 01:14:13,520 2019 no sorry you've never heard of that 2007 01:14:16,950 --> 01:14:16,000 well queensland's on the other side of 2008 01:14:19,030 --> 01:14:16,960 it's like 2009 01:14:20,790 --> 01:14:19,040 oh where are you you're around new york 2010 01:14:23,990 --> 01:14:20,800 it's like you 2011 01:14:25,830 --> 01:14:24,000 i don't know it's on the other side 2012 01:14:27,750 --> 01:14:25,840 it's on the other side of the country we 2013 01:14:30,630 --> 01:14:27,760 don't really 2014 01:14:31,750 --> 01:14:30,640 cover the cases um it's a big distance 2015 01:14:33,430 --> 01:14:31,760 away 2016 01:14:35,030 --> 01:14:33,440 so it'd be like you're covering a case 2017 01:14:36,149 --> 01:14:35,040 on the other side of the united states 2018 01:14:39,510 --> 01:14:36,159 it's a they're 2019 01:14:41,669 --> 01:14:39,520 difficult to act but we might hear about 2020 01:14:45,189 --> 01:14:41,679 stuff but i personally i'm sorry i 2021 01:14:47,430 --> 01:14:45,199 don't know about that okay sure um other 2022 01:14:49,669 --> 01:14:47,440 is

distance we can't sort of 2029 01:15:05,910 --> 01:15:03,760 travel to um 2030 01:15:07,669 --> 01:15:05,920 i think some of the people in our group 2031 01:15:09,189 --> 01:15:07,679 do have more interaction or have been to 2032 01:15:12,470 --> 01:15:09,199 their conferences but 2033 01:15:14,790 --> 01:15:12,480 um i don't i don't know much about 2034 01:15:17,430 --> 01:15:14,800 what's happening there i'm sorry 2035 01:15:17,830 --> 01:15:17,440 yeah david makes a a good point here 2036 01:15:21,189 --> 01:15:17,840 dave 2037 01:15:22,950 --> 01:15:21,199 from the uk the military were probably 2038 01:15:24,390 --> 01:15:22,960 within 20 minutes so they were probably 2039 01:15:26,310 --> 01:15:24,400 tracking it and that's 2040 01:15:28,310 --> 01:15:26,320 that's really interesting take yeah that 2041 01:15:28,550 --> 01:15:28,320 could be it they may have been tracking 2042 01:15:32,390 --> 01:15:28,560 it 2043 01:15:34,310 --> 01:15:32,400 to uh to the school when that happened 2044 01:15:35,910 --> 01:15:34,320 and then there's a mystery of the the 2045 01:15:37,750 --> 01:15:35,920 airplanes i think 2046 01:15:39,510 --> 01:15:37,760 if anyone who's interested in the 2047 01:15:42,550 --> 01:15:39,520 westall case will know 2048 01:15:46,149 --> 01:15:42,560 that the airplanes um the 2049 01:15:47,910 --> 01:15:46,159 the the log books were checked 2050 01:15:49,990 --> 01:15:47,920 at moorabbin airport i think shane went 2051 01:15:51,590 --> 01:15:50,000 and looked at uh trying to get 2052 01:15:53,430 --> 01:15:51,600 who might have been flying those planes 2053 01:15:55,350 --> 01:15:53,440 but there was no there were no entries 2054 01:15:57,189 --> 01:15:55,360 which is quite bizarre 2055 01:15:58,709 --> 01:15:57,199 there were five planes seen flying 2056 01:16:01,030 --> 01:15:58,719 around by many people 2057 01:16:03,189 --> 01:16:01,040 but there were no records of who was 2058 01:16:05,110 --> 01:16:03,199 flying those planes 2059 01:16:07,430 --> 01:16:05,120 isn't that something so they they don't 2060 01:16:11,270 --> 01:16:07,440 know if they are military planes or not 2061 01:16:13,590 --> 01:16:11,280 basically yeah what a what a mystery 2062 01:16:14,709 --> 01:16:13,600 and uh yeah i know we already talked 2063 01:16:17,669 --> 01:16:14,719 about that it's just 2064 01:16:18,830 --> 01:16:17,679 it's just one of those uh it's probably 2065 01:16:21,910 --> 01:16:18,840 your 2066 01:16:25,270 --> 01:16:21,920 roswell right oh yeah definitely 2067 01:16:28,550 --> 01:16:25,280 definitely roswell 2068 01:16:31,830 --> 01:16:28,560 and uh a case that but 2069 01:16:32,870 --> 01:16:31,840 would you say that um you think that's a 2070 01:16:35,270 --> 01:16:32,880 consistent case 2071 01:16:36,470 --> 01:16:35,280 roswell's not so consistent but that 2072 01:16:37,990 --> 01:16:36,480 case in particular 2073 01:16:40,390 --> 01:16:38,000 seems fairly consistent with the 2074 01:16:42,950 --> 01:16:40,400 witnesses 2075 01:16:44,310 --> 01:16:42,960 yeah i think what shane has done is a 2076 01:16:47,110 --> 01:16:44,320 pretty thorough job 2077 01:16:48,470 --> 01:16:47,120 he has a facebook site which he keeps 2078 01:16:51,110 --> 01:16:48,480 it's a closed group where 2079 01:16:52,709 --> 01:16:51,120 um he keeps everybody informed when he 2080 01:16:56,390 --> 01:16:52,719 finds out something 2081 01:16:58,070 --> 01:16:56,400 um so he's constantly 2082 01:16:59,910 --> 01:16:58,080 well not constantly but every now and 2083 01:17:01,590 --> 01:16:59,920 then something will pop up where he's 2084 01:17:04,630 --> 01:17:01,600 someone has approached him or he's found 2085 01:17:08,470 --> 01:17:04,640 another person who has information 2086 01:17:10,070 --> 01:17:08,480 relating to the case so um 2087 01:17:11,590 --> 01:17:10,080 i think he was talking about in your 2088 01:17:15,030 --> 01:17:11,600 interview about the person 2089 01:17:17,590 --> 01:17:15,040 who was a descendant of a 2090 01:17:18,070 --> 01:17:17,600 personnel from the department of supply 2091 01:17:21,350 --> 01:17:18,080 who 2092 01:17:23,830 --> 01:17:21,360 um had kept a journal 2093 01:17:25,590 --> 01:17:23,840 and the journal was mysteriously gone 2094 01:17:27,030 --> 01:17:25,600 missing the family don't know where it 2095 01:17:27,750 --> 01:17:27,040 is i don't know what's happening with 2096 01:17:31,510 --> 01:17:27,760 that 2097 01:17:33,750 --> 01:17:31,520 to go somewhere for a little while 2098 01:17:35,510 --> 01:17:33,760 which would be interesting to see if 2099 01:17:37,910 --> 01:17:35,520 he's got any more information on it 2100 01:17:39,830 --> 01:17:37,920 i'm really waiting for shane's book he 2101 01:17:41,750 --> 01:17:39,840 promises that he will be 2102 01:17:44,390 --> 01:17:41,760 releasing writing and releasing a book 2103 01:17:47,350 --> 01:17:44,400 and that would be fantastic if he could 2104 01:17:48,790 --> 01:17:47,360 do that quite soon yeah i i know we're 2105 01:17:50,709 --> 01:17:48,800 bouncing around a little bit but i do 2106 01:17:52,950 --> 01:17:50,719 want to go back to the knolls 2107 01:17:54,950 --> 01:17:52,960 case where we were talking about because 2108 01:17:56,229 --> 01:17:54,960 uh i'm kind of like churning things over 2109 01:17:59,430 --> 01:17:56,239 in my mind after 2110 01:18:01,669 --> 01:17:59,440 we watched that clip and it's 2111 01:18:02,550 --> 01:18:01,679 really bizarre i can't think of any 2112 01:18:04,390 --> 01:18:02,560 other incident 2113 01:18:07,110 --> 01:18:04,400 anywhere where anyone has ever talked 2114 01:18:08,390 --> 01:18:07,120 about like a mist being sprayed into 2115 01:18:10,390 --> 01:18:08,400 their car 2116 01:18:12,550 --> 01:18:10,400 um and then it changed their voice level 2117 01:18:15,110 --> 01:18:12,560 i mean if you were going to make up a 2118 01:18:19,350 --> 01:18:15,120 ufo story would you put that in it 2119 01:18:22,470 --> 01:18:19,360 i don't think so it's such a bizarre 2120 01:18:24,229 --> 01:18:22,480 bizarre thing if you read velaze cases 2121 01:18:26,070 --> 01:18:24,239 um it's impossible to read through all 2122 01:18:28,070 --> 01:18:26,080 them but um i had a crack 2123 01:18:29,910 --> 01:18:28,080 but there are some similar things and i 2124 01:18:30,790 --> 01:18:29,920 think i want to go and dig out something 2125 01:18:32,709 --> 01:18:30,800 about 2126 01:18:33,990 --> 01:18:32,719 mists occurring i don't know whether the 2127 01:18:34,870 --> 01:18:34,000 mist had something to do with their 2128 01:18:38,070 --> 01:18:34,880 voices 2129 01:18:40,870 --> 01:18:38,080 changing but i suspect if um 2130 01:18:42,149 --> 01:18:40,880 from other cases this is not unfamiliar 2131 01:18:45,270 --> 01:18:42,159 actually after reading his 2132 01:18:48,070 --> 01:18:45,280 his um collection of accounts 2133 01:18:49,189 --> 01:18:48,080 where um it seems as though time has 2134 01:18:51,750 --> 01:18:49,199 slowed down and 2135 01:18:53,110 --> 01:18:51,760 their voices is as though time is going 2136 01:18:59,430 --> 01:18:53,120 very 2137 01:19:01,030 --> 01:18:59,440 you know when you slow down a recording 2138 01:19:03,110 --> 01:19:01,040 that's 2139 01:19:04,790 --> 01:19:03,120 i didn't think of it in that manner i i 2140 01:19:05,750 --> 01:19:04,800 was thinking that their voices just 2141 01:19:07,430 --> 01:19:05,760 changed but 2142 01:19:09,350 --> 01:19:07,440 you think so you think that's all part 2143 01:19:12,870 --> 01:19:09,360 of the time 2144 01:19:15,030 --> 01:19:12,880 uh slowing possibly i don't know i'm not 2145 01:19:18,310 --> 01:19:15,040 a physicist i'm just a humble gut 2146 01:19:19,110 --> 01:19:18,320 and i know nothing but yeah well it's 2147 01:19:22,550 --> 01:19:19,120 definitely uh 2148 01:19:25,110 --> 01:19:22,560 it's definitely a curiosity as as what 2149 01:19:25,590 --> 01:19:25,120 that was about but i mean i'm wondering 2150 01:19:27,669 --> 01:19:25,600 you know 2151 01:19:29,750 --> 01:19:27,679 you say the family isn't really active 2152 01:19:31,669 --> 01:19:29,760 and and talking about it but i'm 2153 01:19:33,590 --> 01:19:31,679 wondering if there was any side effects 2154 01:19:35,669 --> 01:19:33,600 later you know like a year later two 2155 01:19:38,149 --> 01:19:35,679 years later did anyone have any health 2156 01:19:39,590 --> 01:19:38,159 issues related to that it would be very 2157 01:19:41,510 --> 01:19:39,600 interesting to know that but i 2158 01:19:44,149 --> 01:19:41,520 completely understand how 2159 01:19:45,590 --> 01:19:44,159 after they were treated and the 2160 01:19:47,110 --> 01:19:45,600 environment at the time that they 2161 01:19:49,510 --> 01:19:47,120 wouldn't want to talk about it 2162 01:19:50,149 --> 01:19:49,520 and they were they looking at it now 2163 01:19:51,350 --> 01:19:50,159 it's 2164 01:19:53,510 --> 01:19:51,360 quite clear that they were very 2165 01:19:55,189 --> 01:19:53,520 traumatized by it i don't know whether 2166 01:20:00,229 --> 01:19:55,199 they received any counselling 2167 01:20:03,590 --> 01:20:01,790 well they certainly didn't do it for 2168 01:20:06,310 --> 01:20:03,600 sensationalism and they 2169 01:20:07,590 --> 01:20:06,320 or making money because uh if they 2170 01:20:08,870 --> 01:20:07,600 especially if they don't want to talk 2171 01:20:11,030 --> 01:20:08,880 about it anymore 2172 01:20:12,070 --> 01:20:11,040 they wouldn't have had to send out it 2173 01:20:13,910 --> 01:20:12,080 wasn't a motive 2174 01:20:15,669 --> 01:20:13,920 share it it was really brave of them to 2175 01:20:17,270 --> 01:20:15,679 share knowing the ridicule factor that 2176 01:20:17,990 --> 01:20:17,280 was around especially in australia at 2177 01:20:19,510 --> 01:20:18,000 the time 2178 01:20:21,189 --> 01:20:19,520 but i think that they were concerned 2179 01:20:23,350 --> 01:20:21,199 that it would happen to someone else 2180 01:20:24,310 --> 01:20:23,360 and that's why they spoke about it and 2181 01:20:26,790 --> 01:20:24,320 they 2182 01:20:28,870 --> 01:20:26,800 you know it was like a cry for help 2183 01:20:30,070 --> 01:20:28,880 what's going on please tell us what has 2184 01:20:32,229 --> 01:20:30,080 happened to us 2185 01:20:34,070 --> 01:20:32,239 you know we don't want someone else 2186 01:20:37,590 --> 01:20:34,080 going through the same thing 2187 01:20:39,350 --> 01:20:37,600 right uh this uh night stew put up

01:21:37,750 --> 01:21:36,159 maybe the spray or the powder had no 2217 01:21:38,550 --> 01:21:37,760 purpose but it was just something left 2218 01:21:41,830 --> 01:21:38,560 there 2219 01:21:42,870

not 2247 01:22:36,310 --> 01:22:34,880 saying it's extraterrestrial we don't 2248 01:22:39,510 --> 01:22:36,320 know what it is but what's your 2249 01:22:41,110 --> 01:22:39,520 what is your evidence and uh we went he 2250 01:22:42,070 --> 01:22:41,120 said it makes no sense unless a 2251 01:22:44,550 --> 01:22:42,080 propulsion 2252 01:22:45,830 --> 01:22:44,560 which i i agree it makes no sense but 2253 01:22:48,709 --> 01:22:45,840 then again here you are 2254 01:22:49,430 --> 01:22:48,719 talking about um maybe so we'll pay 2255 01:22:51,590 --> 01:22:49,440 attention 2256 01:22:54,310 --> 01:22:51,600 maybe that's it i don't know what the 2257 01:22:56,790 --> 01:22:54,320 reason they really don't need lights 2258 01:22:58,550 --> 01:22:56,800 but um a lot of them have lights well 2259 01:22:59,830 --> 01:22:58,560 this is what i've just read in grant's 2260 01:23:03,590 --> 01:22:59,840 excellent book contact 2261 01:23:03,990 --> 01:23:03,600 modalities and his uh he says the same 2262 01:23:05,430 --> 01:23:04,000 thing 2263 01:23:07,830 --> 01:23:05,440 they don't need lights they can be 2264 01:23:09,189 --> 01:23:07,840 invisible when they want to be 2265 01:23:11,110 --> 01:23:09,199 and it's like so they switch their 2266 01:23:14,870 --> 01:23:11,120 lights on so that we can see 2267 01:23:17,990 --> 01:23:14,880 them it seems 2268 01:23:19,030 --> 01:23:18,000 maybe yeah yeah i mean right they don't 2269 01:23:20,390 --> 01:23:19,040 have to they don't have to show 2270 01:23:21,430 --> 01:23:20,400 themselves but obviously they're not 2271 01:23:24,470 --> 01:23:21,440 afraid of 2272 01:23:27,110 --> 01:23:24,480 showing themselves i mean my one ufo 2273 01:23:28,390 --> 01:23:27,120 sighting um whatever it was wasn't 2274 01:23:29,830 --> 01:23:28,400 hiding 2275 01:23:32,390 --> 01:23:29,840 you know it's not like it was huge and 2276 01:23:35,270 --> 01:23:32,400 over me but i mean it was very visible 2277 01:23:36,070 --> 01:23:35,280 and so i don't know no lights on it 2278 01:23:38,950 --> 01:23:36,080 though 2279 01:23:41,270 --> 01:23:38,960 but if the whole thing had a what i saw 2280 01:23:43,750 --> 01:23:41,280 had a blue glow around the whole thing 2281 01:23:44,550 --> 01:23:43,760 and i have only heard a couple of people 2282 01:23:48,709 --> 01:23:44,560 say 2283 01:23:51,350 --> 01:23:48,719 something similar um so anyway 2284 01:23:52,709 --> 01:23:51,360 um any other interesting cases we i'm 2285 01:23:54,950 --> 01:23:52,719 going to be taking calls here in a 2286 01:23:59,430 --> 01:23:54,960 minute but any other interesting cases 2287 01:24:02,470 --> 01:23:59,440 that you've looked into oh 2288 01:24:06,229 --> 01:24:02,480 well there's a few recent ones 2289 01:24:09,270 --> 01:24:06,239 um we're sort of still mulling over them 2290 01:24:12,709 --> 01:24:09,280 um one case where um 2291 01:24:16,149 --> 01:24:12,719 a husband and wife captured on 2292 01:24:18,390 --> 01:24:16,159 video a very bright light 2293 01:24:19,830 --> 01:24:18,400 over their property and a very strange 2294 01:24:23,350 --> 01:24:19,840 humming sound 2295 01:24:25,510 --> 01:24:23,360 and um something unusual on the video 2296 01:24:28,550 --> 01:24:25,520 but we couldn't really work out 2297 01:24:31,590 --> 01:24:28,560 what it was but um 2298 01:24:34,629 --> 01:24:31,600 yeah but the they lived in it in a 2299 01:24:37,990 --> 01:24:34,639 um bushland property 2300 01:24:40,149 --> 01:24:38,000 um a little bit remote 2301 01:24:42,229 --> 01:24:40,159 and this is you know going back a year 2302 01:24:46,070 --> 01:24:42,239 or a couple of years ago maybe 2303 01:24:46,950 --> 01:24:46,080 um and when we examined what they showed 2304 01:24:50,149 --> 01:24:46,960 us 2305 01:24:51,750 --> 01:24:50,159 it wasn't the the light was coming from 2306 01:24:54,229 --> 01:24:51,760 above and sweeping over the 2307 01:24:55,830 --> 01:24:54,239 the area and it didn't look like it was 2308 01:24:59,110 --> 01:24:55,840 a truck or a car 2309 01:25:02,149 --> 01:24:59,120 so yeah once again the lights 2310 01:25:04,390 --> 01:25:02,159 um and they felt this 2311 01:25:06,229 --> 01:25:04,400 they felt and heard this humming sound 2312 01:25:07,350 --> 01:25:06,239 and they felt disturbed and frightened 2313 01:25:10,790 --> 01:25:07,360 by it 2314 01:25:13,750 --> 01:25:10,800 um another one just days ago 2315 01:25:15,110 --> 01:25:13,760 or later just before you move on from 2316 01:25:17,590 --> 01:25:15,120 that one though let me just 2317 01:25:18,629 --> 01:25:17,600 ask you this one did do you think that 2318 01:25:20,310 --> 01:25:18,639 they felt 2319 01:25:23,350 --> 01:25:20,320 i mean i've heard people say that they 2320 01:25:25,590 --> 01:25:23,360 felt the noise more than they heard it 2321 01:25:26,709 --> 01:25:25,600 is that a description that they would 2322 01:25:29,110 --> 01:25:26,719 say that's 2323 01:25:30,550 --> 01:25:29,120 yeah i think that's how it was they they 2324 01:25:34,310 --> 01:25:30,560 heard it as well 2325 01:25:36,310 --> 01:25:34,320 it was a vibrating humming 2326 01:25:38,550 --> 01:25:36,320 very strange it was unnerving to them 2327 01:25:41,830 --> 01:25:38,560 that's why they contacted us 2328 01:25:45,510 --> 01:25:41,840 um and another guy went outside to um 2329 01:25:49,030 --> 01:25:45,520 take his dog to the bathroom to do these 2330 01:25:49,990 --> 01:25:49,040 bathroom duties outside um and witnessed 2331 01:25:53,669 --> 01:25:50,000 a silver 2332 01:25:55,590 --> 01:25:53,679 said it was a cigar shaped thing with 2333 01:25:57,270 --> 01:25:55,600 lights 2334 01:25:59,189 --> 01:25:57,280 drifting across the sky he called his 2335 01:25:59,830 --> 01:25:59,199 wife and she came out and saw the same 2336 01:26:03,990 --> 01:25:59,840 thing 2337 01:26:07,510 --> 01:26:04,000 we have another fellow who we talked to 2338 01:26:09,830 --> 01:26:07,520 whose wife saw i think it was a 2339 01:26:11,189 --> 01:26:09,840 triangle fly quite close over the roof 2340 01:26:13,430 --> 01:26:11,199 of the house 2341 01:26:14,310 --> 01:26:13,440 and she called him and he came running 2342 01:26:17,030 --> 01:26:14,320 out and he 2343 01:26:19,110 --> 01:26:17,040 witnessed it going off and he'd had an 2344 01:26:22,550 --> 01:26:19,120 experience 2345 01:26:24,149 --> 01:26:22,560 earlier in life with seeing um a landed 2346 01:26:27,910 --> 01:26:24,159 craft and some beans 2347 01:26:31,350 --> 01:26:27,920 in another

individually where 2357 01:26:48,470 --> 01:26:46,639 two people 2358 01:26:50,229 --> 01:26:48,480 i mean in the case of this fellow where 2359 01:26:53,669 --> 01:26:50,239 he saw the landed craft

there 2448 01:30:16,950 --> 01:30:15,280 are like we have here in the united 2449 01:30:20,470 --> 01:30:16,960 states seemingly 2450 01:30:21,750 --> 01:30:20,480 are some hot spots i mean what else 2451 01:30:23,750 --> 01:30:21,760 would you call them right i mean 2452 01:30:25,030 --> 01:30:23,760 there's more than one sighting on 2453 01:30:29,189 --> 01:30:25,040 different days 2454 01:30:30,709 --> 01:30:29,199 and yeah yeah uh 2455 01:30:34,870 --> 01:30:30,719 on the last one someone wanted to know 2456 01:30:38,310 --> 01:30:34,880 if there was any missing time 2457 01:30:40,790 --> 01:30:38,320 did they mention that well 2458 01:30:41,990 --> 01:30:40,800 i don't yeah i can't answer that 2459 01:30:45,030 --> 01:30:42,000 question 2460 01:30:48,950 --> 01:30:45,040 um the case of the case of 2461 01:30:52,470 --> 01:30:48,960 that was similar in 1967 um 2462 01:30:55,110 --> 01:30:52,480 the mr harris remarked that he had a 2463 01:30:55,990 --> 01:30:55,120 um a bit of missing time his watch 2464 01:30:58,229 --> 01:30:56,000 stopped 2465 01:31:00,070 --> 01:30:58,239 and it was running five minutes slow and 2466 01:31:02,229 --> 01:31:00,080 the watch 2467 01:31:04,790 --> 01:31:02,239 was an amiga chronometer and it normally 2468 01:31:08,790 --> 01:31:04,800 doesn't lose any time at all he said 2469 01:31:11,030 --> 01:31:08,800 uh so he had a in the duration i think 2470 01:31:12,790 --> 01:31:11,040 it was a five minute um 2471 01:31:14,070 --> 01:31:12,800 five minutes that he was in the beam and 2472 01:31:17,350 --> 01:31:14,080 the car stopped or 2473 01:31:19,910 --> 01:31:17,360 appeared to stop so he lost that time 2474 01:31:21,510 --> 01:31:19,920 that five minutes and it didn't it 2475 01:31:24,149 --> 01:31:21,520 affected his watch so 2476 01:31:26,870 --> 01:31:24,159 you know in relation to the noel's case 2477 01:31:30,470 --> 01:31:26,880 and it's that similar case i think 2478 01:31:33,750 --> 01:31:30,480 looks like missing time doesn't it yeah 2479 01:31:37,030 --> 01:31:33,760 wow yeah the the missing time thing 2480 01:31:40,390 --> 01:31:37,040 it's funny people allude to it um 2481 01:31:40,709 --> 01:31:40,400 so often that they have that they have 2482 01:31:43,910 --> 01:31:40,719 that 2483 01:31:45,270 --> 01:31:43,920 you know i mean they i i can't even 2484 01:31:46,870 --> 01:31:45,280 remember the first time i heard about it 2485 01:31:49,030 --> 01:31:46,880 but it seems to me 2486 01:31:51,110 --> 01:31:49,040 you know one of the fascinating ones for 2487 01:31:53,830 --> 01:31:51,120 me in that particular case 2488 01:31:55,590 --> 01:31:53,840 is uh we have this case up here in in 2489 01:31:58,390 --> 01:31:55,600 maine that happened in maine 2490 01:32:00,709 --> 01:31:58,400 way back and i think the late 1970s 2491 01:32:03,830 --> 01:32:00,719 called the allagash incident 2492 01:32:04,229 --> 01:32:03,840 and have you heard of that i've heard of 2493 01:32:06,390 --> 01:32:04,239 it but 2494 01:32:08,310 --> 01:32:06,400 um remind me of details well they're out 2495 01:32:09,270 --> 01:32:08,320 there there's uh four guys they're out 2496 01:32:12,629 --> 01:32:09,280 in the canoe they're 2497 01:32:15,350 --> 01:32:12,639 way in uh very remote area of maine 2498 01:32:17,350 --> 01:32:15,360 uh extremely remote and they saw earlier 2499 01:32:19,990 --> 01:32:17,360 that day they saw a light they saw 2500 01:32:20,629 --> 01:32:20,000 something uh with uh someone else that 2501 01:32:24,709 --> 01:32:20,639 witnessed 2502 01:32:26,629 --> 01:32:24,719 it with them then they're out in their 2503 01:32:28,070 --> 01:32:26,639 canoe to go night fishing they built a 2504 01:32:30,470 --> 01:32:28,080 great big fire 2505 01:32:32,149 --> 01:32:30,480 so they'd know how to come back to shore 2506 01:32:32,870 --> 01:32:32,159 so they're out in the canoe the four of 2507 01:32:41,910 --> 01:32:32,880 them 2508 01:32:42,870 --> 01:32:41,920 silly he flashed a light at it a 2509 01:32:45,669 --> 01:32:42,880 flashlight 2510 01:32:47,270 --> 01:32:45,679 started blinking the light at it and so 2511 01:32:48,629 --> 01:32:47,280 then all of a sudden they 2512 01:32:50,310 --> 01:32:48,639 all these things happen they don't 2513 01:32:51,830 --> 01:32:50,320 really remember but what they do 2514 01:32:52,950 --> 01:32:51,840 remember is when they were going back to 2515 01:32:55,910 --> 01:32:52,960 shore 2516 01:32:57,350 --> 01:32:55,920 the fire was burnt down all the way down 2517 01:32:58,229 --> 01:32:57,360 and it would have taken hours for that 2518 01:33:00,790 --> 01:32:58,239 to happen 2519 01:33:01,669 --> 01:33:00,800 you know and they didn't even think of 2520 01:33:03,830 --> 01:33:01,679 it it was like 2521 01:33:06,629 --> 01:33:03,840 oh that's weird that type of thing and 2522 01:33:09,030 --> 01:33:06,639 then 10 years later they started having 2523 01:33:09,750 --> 01:33:09,040 um the dreams they all had the same 2524 01:33:12,790 --> 01:33:09,760 dreams 2525 01:33:13,350 --> 01:33:12,800 and basically it had suppressed it for 2526 01:33:17,430

01:33:39,750 --> 01:33:36,960 good 2539 01:33:40,709 --> 01:33:39,760 okay um there's a lot of folks that 2540 01:33:43,910 --> 01:33:40,719 believe that 2541 01:33:45,990 --> 01:33:43,920 um the consensus is that 2542 01:33:47,430 --> 01:33:46,000 people have traumatic experiences when 2543 01:33:50,709 --> 01:33:47,440 they're engaging 2544 01:33:52,709 --> 01:33:50,719 with extraterrestrials allegedly um 2545 01:33:54,390 --> 01:33:52,719 in australia with your contact with 2546 01:33:56,950 --> 01:33:54,400 people that have had experiences 2547 01:33:58,070 --> 01:33:56,960 what is uh the folks over there going 2548 01:33:59,910 --> 01:33:58,080 through do they think that 2549 01:34:05,350 --> 01:33:59,920 the majority are malevolent in nature 2550 01:34:08,390 --> 01:34:05,360 benevolent is there a balance 2551 01:34:09,350 --> 01:34:08,400 mary rodwell collects more data from 2552 01:34:13,110 --> 01:34:09,360 people who 2553 01:34:15,750 --> 01:34:13,120 um have had experiences with 2554 01:34:17,590 --> 01:34:15,760 beings i think if there's an experience 2555 01:34:19,750 --> 01:34:17,600 with just a craft 2556 01:34:21,830 --> 01:34:19,760 um it's and and you're not looking for 2557 01:34:23,030 --> 01:34:21,840 it's like what the hell is this and why 2558 01:34:24,950 --> 01:34:23,040 is it here 2559 01:34:27,430 --> 01:34:24,960 and that in itself is traumatic because 2560 01:34:31,189 --> 01:34:27,440 it's um 2561 01:34:34,070 --> 01:34:31,199 it's we're not primed to 2562 01:34:35,350 --> 01:34:34,080 expect a ufo visit because of the taboo 2563 01:34:38,870 --> 01:34:35,360 around the topic 2564 01:34:40,550 --> 01:34:38,880 so it comes i think 2565 01:34:43,270 --> 01:34:40,560 even though the experience itself might 2566 01:34:44,149 --> 01:34:43,280 be benign it might come across as being 2567 01:34:46,310 --> 01:34:44,159 threatening 2568 01:34:48,390 --> 01:34:46,320 in that there is the unknown and the 2569 01:34:51,990 --> 01:34:48,400 unexpectedness of it 2570 01:34:52,870 --> 01:34:52,000 um yeah i mean we've had people that 2571 01:34:57,189 --> 01:34:52,880 have 2572 01:35:00,390 --> 01:34:57,199 had um reported 2573 01:35:03,910 --> 01:35:00,400 very um clear waking 2574 01:35:06,950 --> 01:35:03,920 dreamlike states where they felt um 2575 01:35:08,790 --> 01:35:06,960 either yeah it's it's 2576 01:35:10,229 --> 01:35:08,800 the same as in the from what i'm reading 2577 01:35:11,830 --> 01:35:10,239 it's the same as anywhere else in the 2578 01:35:13,510 --> 01:35:11,840 world it's a mix 2579 01:35:14,950 --> 01:35:13,520 it's a mix or it might start off as 2580 01:35:17,109 --> 01:35:14,960 feeling threatening and then 2581 01:35:18,229 --> 01:35:17,119 progress to if if it continues to 2582 01:35:20,790 --> 01:35:18,239 progress to being 2583 01:35:23,109 --> 01:35:20,800 non-threatening you know in the way that 2584 01:35:26,229 --> 01:35:23,119 whitley talks about it i think he 2585 01:35:28,790 --> 01:35:26,239 he i haven't read his books i've been 2586 01:35:29,350 --> 01:35:28,800 a bit too frightened to read his books 2587 01:35:31,590 --> 01:35:29,360 but 2588 01:35:33,590 --> 01:35:31,600 um from what i understand of what i've 2589 01:35:35,910 --> 01:35:33,600 listened to what he has had to say that 2590 01:35:37,590 --> 01:35:35,920 he had started off with it being 2591 01:35:39,510 --> 01:35:37,600 threatening and then coming to terms 2592 01:35:41,750 --> 01:35:39,520 with it and um 2593 01:35:43,350 --> 01:35:41,760 feeling differently about it later on so 2594 01:35:45,189 --> 01:35:43,360 yeah i think it's consistent with what 2595 01:35:47,109 --> 01:35:45,199 happens elsewhere in the world to answer 2596 01:35:49,109

01:36:22,719 the australian society in general do you 2616 01:36:25,189 --> 01:36:23,199 think that 2617 01:36:26,870 --> 01:36:25,199 more open-minded because over here it's 2618 01:36:27,189 --> 01:36:26,880 still i would say martin maybe you can 2619 01:36:28,870 --> 01:36:27,199 uh 2620 01:36:30,390 --> 01:36:28,880 clarify this a little bit what would you 2621 01:36:30,870 --> 01:36:30,400 say the consensus here in the states 2622 01:36:34,229 --> 01:36:30,880 about 2623 01:36:35,750 --> 01:36:34,239 40 50 maybe even higher of people having 2624 01:36:37,990 --> 01:36:35,760 an open mind when it comes to the 2625 01:36:40,310 --> 01:36:38,000 possibility of extraterrestrial life 2626 01:36:41,830 --> 01:36:40,320 i would say that would be high but about 2627 01:36:42,629 --> 01:36:41,840 actual visitations that were being 2628 01:36:44,149 --> 01:36:42,639 visited 2629 01:36:46,870 --> 01:36:44,159 by extraterrestrials or maybe 2630 01:36:47,510 --> 01:36:46,880 interdimensional or some other parallel 2631 01:36:49,350 --> 01:36:47,520 universe 2632 01:36:51,430 --> 01:36:49,360 whatever that is what do you think it is 2633 01:36:54,390 --> 01:36:51,440 over there irene is it more 2634 01:36:56,390 --> 01:36:54,400 uh open-minded over there or accepting 2635 01:36:59,189 --> 01:36:56,400 of the possibilities there 2636 01:37:00,229 --> 01:36:59,199 i think people who are in the community 2637 01:37:03,510 --> 01:37:00,239 um 2638 01:37:05,510 --> 01:37:03,520 vary in their degrees of 2639 01:37:06,709 --> 01:37:05,520 like like in the united states it's a 2640 01:37:08,709 --> 01:37:06,719 diverse community 2641 01:37:10,790 --> 01:37:08,719 ranging from the nuts and bolts people 2642 01:37:12,629 --> 01:37:10,800 who are just interested in the craft and 2643 01:37:13,910 --> 01:37:12,639 not particularly interested in who's 2644 01:37:15,590 --> 01:37:13,920 piloting them 2645 01:37:16,950 --> 01:37:15,600 and then there's the on the other gamma 2646 01:37:20,709 --> 01:37:16,960 of people who've had 2647 01:37:23,270 --> 01:37:20,719 um who report having 2648 01:37:24,390 --> 01:37:23,280 abduction experiences or contact 2649 01:37:26,070 --> 01:37:24,400 experiences 2650 01:37:27,750 --> 01:37:26,080 so amongst the community it's pretty 2651 01:37:29,430 --> 01:37:27,760 much the cross section is similar to 2652 01:37:32,629 --> 01:37:29,440 what's in the united states 2653 01:37:33,990 --> 01:37:32,639 but as far as the general society of 2654 01:37:37,350 --> 01:37:34,000 people outside of the 2655 01:37:40,390 --> 01:37:37,360 community no 2656 01:37:43,830 --> 01:37:40,400 it's um amongst the younger generation 2657 01:37:45,430 --> 01:37:43,840 because of the documentaries and tv 2658 01:37:47,189 --> 01:37:45,440 shows and science fiction 2659 01:37:49,430 --> 01:37:47,199 that has primed the younger generation 2660 01:37:51,350 --> 01:37:49,440 i'm talking about people under 50 2661 01:37:52,870 --> 01:37:51,360 there's much more openness and people 2662 01:37:54,229 --> 01:37:52,880 are happy and willing to talk about and 2663 01:37:56,149 --> 01:37:54,239 explore ideas 2664 01:37:58,149 --> 01:37:56,159 as to what it could be or what's out 2665 01:38:01,910 --> 01:37:58,159 there it's a big universe etc 2666 01:38:04,790 --> 01:38:01,920 but certainly people who are above 50 60 2667 01:38:07,990 --> 01:38:04,800 of that generation that was successfully 2668 01:38:09,990 --> 01:38:08,000 um conditioned by all this 2669 01:38:11,510 --> 01:38:10,000 don't be silly there's no such things as 2670 01:38:15,510 --> 01:38:11,520 flying saucers 2671 01:38:16,070 --> 01:38:15,520 um there's absolutely if you talk about 2672 01:38:19,109 --> 01:38:16,080 it 2673 01:38:21,270 --> 01:38:19,119 wall and that 2674 01:38:22,790 --> 01:38:21,280 yeah there's no such thing that they 2675 01:38:25,910 --> 01:38:22,800 believe there's no such thing 2676 01:38:27,910 --> 01:38:25,920 and but that varies too i mean i think 2677 01:38:29,910 --> 01:38:27,920 australian society is starting to open 2678 01:38:30,709 --> 01:38:29,920 up especially since the new york times 2679 01:38:35,270 --> 01:38:30,719 and the tic tac 2680 01:38:36,870 --> 01:38:35,280 um thing but quite often 2681 01:38:38,310 --> 01:38:36,880 nine times out of ten you talk to people 2682 01:38:39,510 --> 01:38:38,320 and they have not even heard of that 2683 01:38:41,510 --> 01:38:39,520 case 2684 01:38:42,830 --> 01:38:41,520 and there's sort of like not really an 2685 01:38:47,109 --> 01:38:42,840 interest 2686 01:38:50,149 --> 01:38:47,119 um what's going on with the kardashians 2687 01:38:51,750 --> 01:38:50,159 is much more important 2688 01:38:53,510 --> 01:38:51,760 well

i've watched a little 2701 01:39:20,070 --> 01:39:17,760 bit of is there uh 2702 01:39:22,229 --> 01:39:20,080 is there really something going on with 2703 01:39:24,950 --> 01:39:22,239 with that i

01:39:31,750 --> 01:39:29,679 it's a base 2708 01:39:33,430 --> 01:39:31,760 um in conjunction with the united states 2709 01:39:36,550 --> 01:39:33,440 there's actually a really nice 2710 01:39:37,910 --> 01:39:36,560 um tv show called pine gap yeah that's 2711 01:39:41,750 --> 01:39:37,920 what i'm talking about i've watched that 2712 01:39:44,629 --> 01:39:41,760 yeah yeah yeah so it's um it's a spy 2713 01:39:45,750 --> 01:39:44,639 station and and it's sort of looking at 2714 01:39:47,910 --> 01:39:45,760 um 2715 01:39:49,669 --> 01:39:47,920 and i think there's a lot as you realize 2716 01:39:51,750 --> 01:39:49,679 with the military that 2717 01:39:52,870 --> 01:39:51,760 there's stuff that they definitely are 2718 01:39:55,109 --> 01:39:52,880 doing that 2719 01:39:57,350 --> 01:39:55,119 they'd be happy to have people look at 2720 01:39:59,910 --> 01:39:57,360 something and say it's a ufo 2721 01:40:01,030 --> 01:39:59,920 and yeah okay it's a ufo just don't keep 2722 01:40:03,109 --> 01:40:01,040 looking at that and don't look at what 2723 01:40:05,750 --> 01:40:03,119 we're doing 2724 01:40:06,470 --> 01:40:05,760 so mind gap i i believe falls into that 2725 01:40:09,669 --> 01:40:06,480 category 2726 01:40:11,189 --> 01:40:09,679 the i don't know that it's i really 2727 01:40:12,950 --> 01:40:11,199 can't say whether it's an underground 2728 01:40:13,590 --> 01:40:12,960 base and there's ufos flying in and out 2729 01:40:16,709 --> 01:40:13,600 of it 2730 01:40:20,470 --> 01:40:16,719 um we did talk to somebody 2731 01:40:23,030 -->

01:40:36,709 --> 01:40:35,040 get sent to 2738 01:40:38,709 --> 01:40:36,719 if you haven't done the right thing in 2739 01:40:39,590 --> 01:40:38,719 the united states as a military person 2740 01:40:41,189 --> 01:40:39,600 it's sort of like a 2741 01:40:43,430 --> 01:40:41,199 a banishment to the other side of the 2742 01:40:46,629 --> 01:40:43,440 earth it's a punishment 2743 01:40:46,870

that 2777 01:42:15,830 --> 01:42:13,119 make have made these artworks live 2778 01:42:17,990 --> 01:42:15,840 is very remote the average australian 2779 01:42:19,590 --> 01:42:18,000 living in the cities doesn't really 2780 01:42:21,350 --> 01:42:19,600 have the opportunity to have contact 2781 01:42:23,109 --> 01:42:21,360 with um 2782 01:42:24,790 --> 01:42:23,119 the people in these regions and i would 2783 01:42:25,590 --> 01:42:24,800 really love to go and pursue that some 2784 01:42:28,709 --> 01:42:25,600 more 2785 01:42:29,669 --> 01:42:28,719 um but certainly there are um long told 2786 01:42:32,550 --> 01:42:29,679 stories of this 2787 01:42:34,709 --> 01:42:32,560 the spirits um that they have contact 2788 01:42:37,669 --> 01:42:34,719 with that are weaved into their culture 2789 01:42:39,350 --> 01:42:37,679 and it's you know to talk about their 2790 01:42:41,510 --> 01:42:39,360 culture like 2791 01:42:43,669 --> 01:42:41,520 the aboriginal people had many different 2792 01:42:46,709 --> 01:42:43,679 nations before they were colonised 2793 01:42:50,149 --> 01:42:46,719 and each had their own particular um 2794 01:42:52,070 --> 01:42:50,159 stories um and languages so it was like 2795 01:42:53,350 --> 01:42:52,080 talking about the europeans what did the 2796 01:42:55,430 --> 01:42:53,360 europeans say 2797 01:42:57,990 --> 01:42:55,440 well depends on what region what what 2798 01:43:01,109 --> 01:42:58,000 country what nation what language 2799 01:43:03,430 --> 01:43:01,119 so it is a very complex um 2800 01:43:04,790 --> 01:43:03,440 uh thing that has been under-researched 2801 01:43:08,149 --> 01:43:04,800 in my opinion 2802 01:43:10,070 --> 01:43:08,159 um i did talk to a fellow who phoned in 2803 01:43:12,310 --> 01:43:10,080 when james fox was offering 2804 01:43:13,830 --> 01:43:12,320 he came over when he was doing the 2805 01:43:15,590 --> 01:43:13,840 westall thing and went on national 2806 01:43:20,149 --> 01:43:15,600

in new south wales said that 2813 01:43:35,669 --> 01:43:33,360 he had an experience as a school child 2814 01:43:37,430 --> 01:43:35,679 and a whole lot of school children 2815 01:43:39,270 --> 01:43:37,440 saw the appearance of a ufo these are 2816 01:43:40,229 --> 01:43:39,280 indigenous school children and when he 2817 01:43:42,550 --> 01:43:40,239 was a child 2818 01:43:43,830 -->

01:43:46,960 the mission saw the 2822 01:43:50,149 --> 01:43:49,119 it was sounded similar to the father 2823 01:43:52,310 --> 01:43:50,159 gill encounter 2824 01:43:53,590 --> 01:43:52,320 but the kids were very frightened by the 2825 01:43:56,950 --> 01:43:53,600 appearance of this 2826 01:44:00,070 --> 01:43:56,960 um object and um yeah 2827 01:44:01,830 --> 01:44:00,080 this is a story like

--> 01:46:17,679 in western australia 2890 01:46:20,790 --> 01:46:20,080 beings with very large eyes sort of 2891 01:46:24,550 --> 01:46:20,800 white 2892 01:46:27,669 --> 01:46:24,560 very reminiscent of what 2893 01:46:30,629 --> 01:46:27,679 people report having seen 2894 01:46:33,350 --> 01:46:30,639 the well say the rural children being 2895 01:46:35,750 --> 01:46:33,360 with the very large hypnotic black eyes 2896 01:46:37,830 --> 01:46:35,760 and so they talk about these as being 2897 01:46:38,950 --> 01:46:37,840 the spirit the guardian spirits of that 2898 01:46:40,310 --> 01:46:38,960 area and 2899 01:46:42,149 --> 01:46:40,320 the spirits that you have to ask 2900 01:46:44,870 --> 01:46:42,159 permission to to enter 2901 01:46:45,430 --> 01:46:44,880 an area um and the spirits that they 2902 01:46:51,510 --> 01:46:45,440 inter 2903 01:46:52,830 --> 01:46:51,520 it's another dimension it's quite 2904 01:46:56,149 --> 01:46:52,840 different to our 2905 01:46:58,870 --> 01:46:56,159 materialistic culture that we're um 2906 01:46:59,990 --> 01:46:58,880 it's a very spiritual culture and very 2907 01:47:02,950 --> 01:47:00,000 very in touch with 2908 01:47:03,990 --> 01:47:02,960 um the workings of the of the earth and 2909 01:47:06,229 --> 01:47:04,000 nature 2910 01:47:07,830 --> 01:47:06,239 um and we quite remove from that our 2911 01:47:10,070 --> 01:47:07,840 lives couldn't be more different 2912 01:47:11,350 --> 01:47:10,080 in the cities for i've heard a story 2913 01:47:13,910 --> 01:47:11,360 about how 2914 01:47:15,430 --> 01:47:13,920 the very old men um when they come into 2915 01:47:18,470 --> 01:47:15,440 the city they're very old um 2916 01:47:19,590 --> 01:47:18,480 indigenous elders they move very slowly 2917 01:47:20,870 --> 01:47:19,600 and um 2918 01:47:22,390 --> 01:47:20,880 but then what you get when you get them 2919 01:47:23,270 --> 01:47:22,400 out into the bush they move like 2920 01:47:26,790 --> 01:47:23,280 lightning 2921 01:47:28,950 --> 01:47:26,800 because they that's their um they 2922 01:47:30,550 --> 01:47:28,960 that's their natural environment and 2923 01:47:33,270 --> 01:47:30,560 they know how to 2924 01:47:34,709 --> 01:47:33,280 to get around and they feel at home 2925 01:47:35,030 --> 01:47:34,719 there whereas if they're in the city 2926 01:47:38,470 --> 01:47:35,040 it's 2927 01:47:40,870 --> 01:47:38,480 natural environment they're 2928 01:47:41,590 --> 01:47:40,880 quite different responses to their 2929 01:47:44,950 --> 01:47:41,600 environment 2930 01:47:48,229 --> 01:47:44,960 where where they are so yeah 2931 01:47:51,189 --> 01:47:48,239 it's a really fascinating fascinating 2932 01:47:52,229 --> 01:47:51,199 field to that needs to be researched 2933 01:47:54,709 --> 01:47:52,239 more 2934 01:47:56,390 --> 01:47:54,719 in many aspects not just in the ufo 2935 01:47:58,310 --> 01:47:56,400 aspect 2936 01:48:00,870 --> 01:47:58,320 right right um yeah i mean that's 2937 01:48:02,950 --> 01:48:00,880 similar to the native americans here 2938 01:48:04,149 --> 01:48:02,960 that were here there's uh the oral 2939 01:48:06,390 --> 01:48:04,159 traditions 2940 01:48:07,189 --> 01:48:06,400 from you know way back and there are 2941 01:48:08,950 --> 01:48:07,199 some you know 2942 01:48:11,030 --> 01:48:08,960 there are i've seen them in person 2943 01:48:13,910 --> 01:48:11,040 actually in california there were some 2944 01:48:14,950 --> 01:48:13,920 rock paintings um nothing that looked 2945 01:48:17,430 --> 01:48:14,960 like aliens 2946 01:48:18,629 --> 01:48:17,440 but still really fascinating to see and 2947 01:48:21,750 --> 01:48:18,639 i love 2948 01:48:23,669 --> 01:48:21,760 when you come across things like

01:48:45,119 can find that easily online and uh of 2958 01:48:47,669 --> 01:48:46,880 course i put up the wrong website where 2959 01:48:50,310 --> 01:48:47,679 i did 2960 01:48:52,790 -->

01:49:04,480 historical information and videos on it 2967 01:49:08,870 --> 01:49:07,280 um we will probably eventually bring 2968 01:49:10,470 --> 01:49:08,880 that one down but people 2969 01:49:12,390 --> 01:49:10,480 might still want to look at some things 2970 01:49:14,070 --> 01:49:12,400 that are on there andrew and ben did 2971 01:49:15,510 --> 01:49:14,080 some quite informative

from don 3039 01:51:58,629 --> 01:51:55,520 and we got confused and we missed a gate 3040 01:52:03,030 --> 01:51:58,639 are you talking about david childress no 3041 01:52:07,589 --> 01:52:03,040 um
