00:00:44,310 --> 00:00:42,079
been controversial ever since the very

5
00:00:46,549 --> 00:00:44,320
first cases were reported the main

6
00:00:48,630 --> 00:00:46,559
factor working against them is that most

7
00:00:50,869 --> 00:00:48,640
of them are single witness reports there

8
00:00:54,150 --> 00:00:50,879
are exceptions of course the most famous

9
00:00:56,790 --> 00:00:54,160
being the 1975 travis walton case in

10
00:00:58,229 --> 00:00:56,800
this incident six of walton's co-workers

11
00:01:00,630 --> 00:00:58,239
they were working in sick greaves

six of them passed this case is still

23
00:01:26,630 --> 00:01:24,400

abduction claims but another abduction

25
00:01:31,270 --> 00:01:28,880
case with multiple witnesses that also

26
00:01:33,830 --> 00:01:31,280
seems worthy of consideration is nowhere

27
00:01:36,789 --> 00:01:33,840
near as well known in the january 5th

28
00:01:39,350 --> 00:01:36,799
1975 miami herald there is an article

29
00:01:41,510 --> 00:01:39,360
headlined snatched by creatures he lives

30
00:01:44,550 --> 00:01:41,520
to tell about it the story starts off

31
00:01:46,469 --> 00:01:44,560
this way filiberto cardenas says it all

32
00:01:48,230 --> 00:01:46,479
began with a buzzing in his head that

33
00:01:51,109 --> 00:01:48,240
may be the only part of his story you'll

34
00:01:53,910 --> 00:01:51,119
believe cardenas is described as saying

35
00:01:56,230 --> 00:01:53,920
that he was abducted by a ufo and taken

36
00:01:58,950 --> 00:01:56,240
on a 10-mile trip across west dade

37
00:02:01,749 --> 00:01:58,960
florida on wednesday night then there is

38
00:02:04,389 --> 00:02:01,759
this stranger than fiction or stranger

39
00:02:06,310 --> 00:02:04,399
than fact take your pick while the story

40
00:02:08,630 --> 00:02:06,320
might seem like it's on its way towards

41
00:02:10,869 --> 00:02:08,640
being dismissive and mocking it takes a

42
00:02:13,270 --> 00:02:10,879
turn but understand that there are

43
00:02:15,830 --> 00:02:13,280
witnesses three of them all friends of

44
00:02:18,150 --> 00:02:15,840
cardenas they too talk a buzzing of

45
00:02:20,470 --> 00:02:18,160
blinding red violet colors that lasted a

46
00:02:22,710 --> 00:02:20,480
few minutes of a cardenas who seemed to

47
00:02:25,830 --> 00:02:22,720
be sucked into the light the case was

48
00:02:28,550 --> 00:02:25,840
investigated by dr virgilio sanchez oseo

49
00:02:30,949 --> 00:02:28,560
a lawyer and wendell stevens a ufo

50
00:02:33,350 --> 00:02:30,959

51
00:02:35,509 --> 00:02:33,360
of sanchez-ocea's investigation and

52
00:02:38,229 --> 00:02:35,519
stevens wrote an overview based on his

53
00:02:41,589 --> 00:02:38,239
own investigation according to stevens

54
00:02:45,589 --> 00:02:41,599
cardenas 46 his friend fernando marti

55
00:02:48,630 --> 00:02:45,599
also 46 marty's wife elizabeth 36 and

56
00:02:50,390 --> 00:02:48,640
daughter murta 13 were in cardenas car

57
00:02:54,309 --> 00:02:50,400
on u.s highway 27

58
00:02:55,910 --> 00:02:54,319
at around 6 pm on january 3rd 1979 they

59
00:02:57,830 --> 00:02:55,920
were returning home after being

60
00:03:00,390 --> 00:02:57,840
unsuccessful in their search for a pig

61
00:03:03,030 --> 00:03:00,400
the martis wanted to buy for a pig roast

62
00:03:04,869 --> 00:03:03,040
the next day fernando marti was driving

63
00:03:07,110 --> 00:03:04,879
when the engine stalled marti and

64
00:03:09,430 --> 00:03:07,120
cardenas got out of the car lifted the

65
00:03:11,110 --> 00:03:09,440
hood and looked in as they did so they

66
00:03:13,830 --> 00:03:11,120
saw that the engine was reflecting

67
00:03:16,309 --> 00:03:13,840
different colors red violet blue orange

68
00:03:18,070 --> 00:03:16,319
and bluish white according to cardenas

69
00:03:20,710 --> 00:03:18,080
they then heard a noise like many

70
00:03:22,630 --> 00:03:20,720
thousands of bees cardenas said he was

71
00:03:25,030 --> 00:03:22,640
paralyzed and could hear the women

72
00:03:27,110 --> 00:03:25,040
screaming in the car he then realized he

73
00:03:29,830 --> 00:03:27,120
was rising and when he was five to ten

74
00:03:31,990 --> 00:03:29,840
feet over the car he lost consciousness

75
00:03:34,309 --> 00:03:32,000
when cardenas came to he was on his

76
00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:34,319
hands and knees he saw two lights coming

77
00:03:38,789 --> 00:03:35,760
towards him and then heard the

78
00:03:40,550 --> 00:03:38,799
screeching of tires a man who presumably

79
00:03:42,630 --> 00:03:40,560
got out of the car that just avoided

80
00:03:44,470 --> 00:03:42,640
hitting him lifted cardenas by his

81
00:03:47,110 --> 00:03:44,480
collar and helped him to the side of the

82
00:03:50,070 --> 00:03:47,120
road cardenas later learned that this

83
00:03:52,789 --> 00:03:50,080
was 16 miles away from his stalled car

84
00:03:54,710 --> 00:03:52,799
according to stevens a motorist called

85
00:03:57,350 --> 00:03:54,720
the police and patrolman william

86
00:03:59,830 --> 00:03:57,360
christian found cardenas at around 8 15

87
00:04:01,990 --> 00:03:59,840
pm and took him to the fifth precinct

88
00:04:04,470 --> 00:04:02,000
station christian told stevens that

89
00:04:06,470 --> 00:04:04,480
cardenas said he had no idea what had

90
00:04:08,869 --> 00:04:06,480
happened to him when stevens interviewed

91
00:04:10,630 --> 00:04:08,879
cardenas cardenas said he didn't say

92
00:04:13,030 --> 00:04:10,640
what really happened because he didn't

93
00:04:15,509 --> 00:04:13,040
want to look crazy while cardenas was

94
00:04:18,069 --> 00:04:15,519
being lifted fernando marti looked up in

95
00:04:20,550 --> 00:04:18,079
time to see cardenas feet in the air

96
00:04:23,189 --> 00:04:20,560
cardenas was shouting let me go let me

97
00:04:25,350 --> 00:04:23,199
go marti then felt weightless himself

98
00:04:27,189 --> 00:04:25,360
and grabbed the engine the light faded

99
00:04:29,510 --> 00:04:27,199
and the feeling of weightlessness faded

100
00:04:31,830 --> 00:04:29,520
with it marti then came out from under

101
00:04:33,909 --> 00:04:31,840
the hood and watched as gardenis floated

102
00:04:36,150 --> 00:04:33,919
up in a beam of light into a dark

103
00:04:38,710 --> 00:04:36,160
bag-shaped form that then flew off to

104
00:04:40,790 --> 00:04:38,720
the west marti went to comfort the women

105
00:04:43,110 --> 00:04:40,800
who were shouting they took filiberto

106
00:04:45,189 --> 00:04:43,120
they took filiberto he then was able to

107
00:04:46,790 --> 00:04:45,199
start the car and drive the car

108
00:04:49,430 --> 00:04:46,800
sputtered along like it was running out

109
00:04:50,950 --> 00:04:49,440
of gas and then smoothed out marti

110
00:04:53,350 --> 00:04:50,960
called the police and reported the

111
00:04:55,830 --> 00:04:53,360
incident he then called cardenas wife

112
00:04:58,150 --> 00:04:55,840
iris who was understandably upset when

113
00:05:00,550 --> 00:04:58,160
marti told her what had happened when

114
00:05:02,790 --> 00:05:00,560
cardenas was found iris went to the

115
00:05:05,110 --> 00:05:02,800
station and took him to a clinic he was

116
00:05:06,950 --> 00:05:05,120
then taken to jackson memorial hospital

117
00:05:09,430 --> 00:05:06,960
where an air force team from homestead

118
00:05:11,270 --> 00:05:09,440
air force base tested him for radiation

119
00:05:13,270 --> 00:05:11,280
the tests were negative and he was

120
00:05:14,950 --> 00:05:13,280
released the herald reporters

121
00:05:17,590 --> 00:05:14,960
interviewed cardenas in his home the

122
00:05:20,230 --> 00:05:17,600
next day according to the herald article

123
00:05:22,710 --> 00:05:20,240
cardenas was in bed with his wife iris

124
00:05:25,029 --> 00:05:22,720
standing guard according to the article

125
00:05:27,110 --> 00:05:25,039
cardenas hand shook and he had four

126
00:05:29,189 --> 00:05:27,120
small burn marks on his forehead

127
00:05:31,909 --> 00:05:29,199
according to stevens cardenas was

128
00:05:34,310 --> 00:05:31,919
sweating profusely had a short memory a

129
00:05:36,790 --> 00:05:34,320
sulfurous body odor and his urine was a

130
00:05:38,629 --> 00:05:36,800
very dark yellow brown stevens wrote

131
00:05:40,710 --> 00:05:38,639
that homestead air force base reported

132
00:05:43,350 --> 00:05:40,720
nothing unusual on their radar at the

133
00:05:45,430 --> 00:05:43,360
time of the reported incident cardenas

134
00:05:47,990 --> 00:05:45,440
underwent four hypnotic regressions with

135
00:05:49,670 --> 00:05:48,000
dr jose yaedra what he described was a

136
00:05:52,469 --> 00:05:49,680
combination of both an abduction

137
00:05:54,310 --> 00:05:52,479
experience and a contact d experience

138
00:05:56,629 --> 00:05:54,320
later both he and iris claim to have

139
00:05:58,550 --> 00:05:56,639
gone aboard a craft voluntarily and to

140
00:06:00,870 --> 00:05:58,560
have had full conscious recall of their

141
00:06:03,189 --> 00:06:00,880
experience it is perhaps because of the

142
00:06:05,189 --> 00:06:03,199
contact d aspect of this case that it

143
00:06:07,590 --> 00:06:05,199
was overshadowed by the walton case

144
00:06:09,510 --> 00:06:07,600
there was however an intriguing detail

145
00:06:11,510 --> 00:06:09,520
regarding the alien's clothing that

146
00:06:13,990 --> 00:06:11,520
showed up in an earlier case that makes

147
00:06:15,110 --> 00:06:14,000
the cardenas case a little harder to

148
00:06:17,590 --> 00:06:15,120
dismiss

149
00:06:27,750 --> 00:06:17,600
next week what the cardenas said they
