year we wrote about a woman irma rick in

5
00:00:49,029 --> 00:00:46,879
the province of la pompa in argentina

6
00:00:50,950 --> 00:00:49,039
who after seeing a bright light outside

7
00:00:53,750 --> 00:00:50,960
her house suddenly found herself the

8
00:00:56,150 --> 00:00:53,760
next morning almost 65 kilometers away

9
00:00:58,470 --> 00:00:56,160
40 miles sitting on the side of the road

10
00:01:00,709 --> 00:00:58,480
in the town of getrache with no memory

11
00:01:02,869 --> 00:01:00,719
of how she got there most of us here in

12
00:01:05,109 --> 00:01:02,879
the united states got the news from

13
00:01:07,830 --> 00:01:05,119
inexplicata the journal of hispanic

14
00:01:10,310 --> 00:01:07,840
ufology a recent post on the site on

15
00:01:13,190 --> 00:01:10,320
february 6th tells of another report out

16
00:01:15,749 --> 00:01:13,200
of lapompa that is just as strange the

17
00:01:18,070 --> 00:01:15,759
sources are listed as luis burgos and

18
00:01:21,350 --> 00:01:18,080
the online lapompa news publication

19
00:01:23,590 --> 00:01:21,360
infocuela if ahuela posted an article in

20
00:01:25,670 --> 00:01:23,600
a follow-up covering the story on

21
00:01:27,670 --> 00:01:25,680
february 4th a couple and their adult

22
00:01:29,830 --> 00:01:27,680
son were traveling by truck on their way

23
00:01:31,590 --> 00:01:29,840
home to the town of victoria they were

24
00:01:33,910 --> 00:01:31,600
crossing the border between la pampa

25
00:01:36,149 --> 00:01:33,920
province and san luis province to the

26
00:01:38,630 --> 00:01:36,159
east as they passed under the border

27
00:01:40,550 --> 00:01:38,640
arch they saw many lights according to

28
00:01:42,469 --> 00:01:40,560
one of the witnesses when we saw the

29
00:01:44,149 --> 00:01:42,479
lights the first thing we wondered was

30
00:01:46,630 --> 00:01:44,159
if it had to do with victoria

31
00:01:48,870 --> 00:01:46,640
agriculture school being lit up we then

32
00:01:51,190 --> 00:01:48,880
realized this could not be the case as

33
00:01:52,630 --> 00:01:51,200
we were far away before they could make

34
00:01:54,310 --> 00:01:52,640
sense of what they were seeing they

35
00:01:56,950 --> 00:01:54,320
found themselves entering the town of

36
00:01:59,510 --> 00:01:56,960
victoria 26 kilometers from where they

37
00:02:01,190 --> 00:01:59,520
were a moment ago their gps still

38
00:02:03,510 --> 00:02:01,200
indicated that they were in their former

39
00:02:05,990 --> 00:02:03,520
position but then zeroed out within a

40
00:02:08,469 --> 00:02:06,000
few blocks they didn't discuss what had

41
00:02:10,389 --> 00:02:08,479
just happened to them until the next day

42
00:02:12,229 --> 00:02:10,399
one of them explained was only on the

43
00:02:14,390 --> 00:02:12,239
following day that we began to wonder

44
00:02:16,630 --> 00:02:14,400
and recall what had happened to us it

45
00:02:18,630 --> 00:02:16,640
was then that we realized how confusing

46
00:02:21,110 --> 00:02:18,640
everything was but we didn't know what

47
00:02:22,869 --> 00:02:21,120
it was or what took place

48
00:02:25,750 --> 00:02:22,879
lapampa has a history of strange

49
00:02:29,030 --> 00:02:25,760
goings-on a case well known in argentina

50
00:02:31,190 --> 00:02:29,040
is the reported 1983 abduction of julio

51
00:02:33,430 --> 00:02:31,200
plattner his story starts with him

52
00:02:36,390 --> 00:02:33,440
leaving the ranch of antonio fisher at 7

53
00:02:38,229 --> 00:02:36,400
30 p.m on august 9th after a day's work

54
00:02:40,150 --> 00:02:38,239
he got out of his pickup truck to open

55
00:02:42,070 --> 00:02:40,160
the gate and he was hit by a blinding

56
00:02:44,070 --> 00:02:42,080
light he then found himself in a

57
00:02:45,910 --> 00:02:44,080
spherical room and sitting in what

58
00:02:48,150 --> 00:02:45,920
reminded him of a dentist chair that

59
00:02:50,070 --> 00:02:48,160
seemed to be floating the walls were not

60
00:02:52,309 --> 00:02:50,080
smooth and seemed to be covered with a

61
00:02:54,470 --> 00:02:52,319
beige fabric there were four creatures

62
00:02:56,869 --> 00:02:54,480
around him a male and female in front of

63
00:02:58,309 --> 00:02:56,879
him and a male on either side of him he

64
00:03:00,470 --> 00:02:58,319
wasn't sure if they were wearing

65
00:03:02,309 --> 00:03:00,480
uniforms or if it was their skin he was

66
00:03:04,630 --> 00:03:02,319
looking at but they were the same color

67
00:03:06,470 --> 00:03:04,640
as the walls he could however make out

68
00:03:08,949 --> 00:03:06,480
that they were wearing boots he

69
00:03:12,309 --> 00:03:08,959
described them as being about 1.67

70
00:03:14,790 --> 00:03:12,319
meters tall 5.47 feet and that they had

71
00:03:16,229 --> 00:03:14,800
five fingered hands he said he estimated

72
00:03:18,229 --> 00:03:16,239
their height based on the height of a

73
00:03:20,229 --> 00:03:18,239
friend of his he was struck by their

74
00:03:22,949 --> 00:03:20,239
protruding eyes which he described as

75
00:03:24,789 --> 00:03:22,959
being large opaque in black they drew

76
00:03:26,789 --> 00:03:24,799
blood from the crook of his arm and when

77
00:03:28,949 --> 00:03:26,799
he tried to touch the creatures he was

78
00:03:31,350 --> 00:03:28,959
blocked by an invisible force he was

79
00:03:33,589 --> 00:03:31,360
then told to stand up and was able to do

80
00:03:35,670 --> 00:03:33,599
so he went to walk and suddenly found

81
00:03:37,750 --> 00:03:35,680
himself in his truck he turned on the

82
00:03:40,550 --> 00:03:37,760
headlights and recognized that he was in

83
00:03:42,949 --> 00:03:40,560
an area 19 kilometers away from the gate

84
00:03:44,949 --> 00:03:42,959
concerned that he'd left the gate open

85
00:03:47,670 --> 00:03:44,959
he felt obligated to drive back and

86
00:03:49,270 --> 00:03:47,680
close it before leaving however he noted

87
00:03:51,910 --> 00:03:49,280
that there was a scab on the crook of

88
00:03:53,750 --> 00:03:51,920
his arm as he drove off he wondered

89
00:03:55,830 --> 00:03:53,760
whether he'd had some sort of dream

90
00:03:57,910 --> 00:03:55,840
hallucination or if what he'd seem to

91
00:03:59,910 --> 00:03:57,920
have experienced had actually happened

92
00:04:02,869 --> 00:03:59,920
when he got to the gate he saw that he

93
00:04:05,350 --> 00:04:02,879
had indeed left it open and he closed it

94
00:04:09,190 --> 00:04:05,360
another case from lapampa was posted on

00:04:10,949 --> 00:04:09,200

96

overnight from thursday march 2nd to

friday march 3rd 2006. after a search by

100
00:04:24,310 --> 00:04:21,919
his fellow officers he was found in a

101
00:04:26,870 --> 00:04:24,320
fetal position 20 kilometers away from

102
00:04:29,110 --> 00:04:26,880
his motorcycle his walkie-talkie phone

103
00:04:31,189 --> 00:04:29,120

local hospital and put under psychiatric

care on monday he spoke with the local

107
00:04:40,310 --> 00:04:38,560
press i was driving a motorcycle and

108
00:04:42,629 --> 00:04:40,320
when i reached the wilderness area we

109
00:04:44,950 --> 00:04:42,639
called la canas i saw a red light

110
00:04:47,350 --> 00:04:44,960
similar to that of a car he said that

111
00:04:49,830 --> 00:04:47,360
when he got closer the light disappeared

112
00:04:52,390 --> 00:04:49,840
then i got off my motorcycle to see if i

113
00:04:54,390 --> 00:04:52,400
could hear any noises when i got back on

114
00:04:56,230 --> 00:04:54,400
the motorcycle and was about to put on

115
00:04:58,310 --> 00:04:56,240
my helmet the red light appeared in

116
00:05:01,110 --> 00:04:58,320
front of me against my face and very

117
00:05:03,510 --> 00:05:01,120
strong according to him he was paralyzed

118
00:05:05,749 --> 00:05:03,520
except for his hands the light rose up

119
00:05:07,990 --> 00:05:05,759
and he experienced a significant ache in

120
00:05:09,909 --> 00:05:08,000
his head and eyes he tried to escape by

121
00:05:12,390 --> 00:05:09,919
running through the fields he then found

122
00:05:14,230 --> 00:05:12,400
himself being pursued by two entities

123
00:05:16,469 --> 00:05:14,240
that were smaller than him with large

124
00:05:18,710 --> 00:05:16,479
heads and red eyes he said he couldn't

125
00:05:20,550 --> 00:05:18,720
recall whether he was walking or running

126
00:05:23,029 --> 00:05:20,560
at that point and that he remembered his

127
00:05:24,550 --> 00:05:23,039
entire life in a few seconds he said

128
00:05:27,029 --> 00:05:24,560
that the creature seemed to be giving

129
00:05:29,430 --> 00:05:27,039
him life tests he described one of the

130
00:05:31,990 --> 00:05:29,440
tests for example i reached the

131
00:05:34,390 --> 00:05:32,000
cornfield and at a distance of some 10

132
00:05:36,390 --> 00:05:34,400
meters saw a large figure that appeared

133
00:05:38,710 --> 00:05:36,400
to be chewing the corn cobs and was

134
00:05:40,550 --> 00:05:38,720
breaking something i felt very scared

135
00:05:42,469 --> 00:05:40,560
and stood there staring at it it was

136
00:05:44,550 --> 00:05:42,479
getting closer and closer and that's

137
00:05:46,710 --> 00:05:44,560
when i felt them tell me either you go

138
00:05:48,310 --> 00:05:46,720
forward or backward then i stood

139
00:05:50,230 --> 00:05:48,320
thinking and walked right past the

140
00:05:52,870 --> 00:05:50,240
figure and the fear sort of left me at

141
00:05:55,029 --> 00:05:52,880
that moment it seems the experience left

142
00:05:58,309 --> 00:05:55,039
a lasting impression on pachetta in a

143
00:06:00,550 --> 00:05:58,319
may 14 2014 follow-up posting on

144
00:06:02,629 --> 00:06:00,560
inexplicata the writer reports that

145
00:06:04,710 --> 00:06:02,639
buchetta was put into mandatory

146
00:06:06,150 --> 00:06:04,720
retirement due to his inability to

147
00:06:08,629 --> 00:06:06,160
return to work because it was

148
00:06:10,790 --> 00:06:08,639
traumatized by the event with the recent

149
00:06:13,029 --> 00:06:10,800
reports lapampa's history of high

150
00:06:15,110 --> 00:06:13,039
strangeness continues thanks to

151
00:06:17,909 --> 00:06:15,120
