00:00:43,110 --> 00:00:41,280
humanoid in front of it according to

00:00:45,110 --> 00:00:43,120
john keel who wrote about the story in

8
00:00:47,270 --> 00:00:45,120
his article the little man of north

publishing the editor carmina freeman

15
00:01:04,149 --> 00:01:01,840
sent the picture to keele and he began a

16
00:01:07,590 --> 00:01:04,159
correspondence with hill which continued

17
00:01:10,070 --> 00:01:07,600
throughout 1968 according to keele hill

18
00:01:12,469 --> 00:01:10,080
was agonizingly slow in responding to

19
00:01:14,630 --> 00:01:12,479
his letters keel wrote in his article

20
00:01:16,710 --> 00:01:14,640
that he had the photo blown up to wall

21
00:01:19,030 --> 00:01:16,720
size and that he and several

22
00:01:20,469 --> 00:01:19,040
professional photographers didn't see

23
00:01:22,710 --> 00:01:20,479
anything that made it seem that the

24
00:01:25,429 --> 00:01:22,720
figure was a doll or some other form of

25
00:01:27,270 --> 00:01:25,439
hoax according to keele hill was working

26
00:01:31,190 --> 00:01:27,280
in the family garden behind their house

27
00:01:34,310 --> 00:01:31,200
on july 21 1967 kiel then presents the

28
00:01:36,069 --> 00:01:34,320
story in hill's words according to hill

29
00:01:38,230 --> 00:01:36,079
something in the air smelled like gas

30
00:01:40,870 --> 00:01:38,240
and caused his eyes to water he also

31
00:01:42,870 --> 00:01:40,880
noticed that it was unusually quiet he

32
00:01:45,429 --> 00:01:42,880
then heard a buzzing sound and the gas

33
00:01:47,350 --> 00:01:45,439
smell got stronger he caught a glimpse

34
00:01:49,510 --> 00:01:47,360
of something moving that looked like a

35
00:01:51,670 --> 00:01:49,520
black hat he then saw a nine feet

36
00:01:54,389 --> 00:01:51,680
diameter white ball shaped object in the

37
00:01:56,230 --> 00:01:54,399
air hills said he fell down and then ran

38
00:01:59,350 --> 00:01:56,240
into the house to get his camera

39
00:02:01,590 --> 00:01:59,360
described by keel as a kodak sabie 620

40
00:02:03,749 --> 00:02:01,600
when he got back the object was on the

41
00:02:05,510 --> 00:02:03,759
ground a loud noise hurt his ears and

42
00:02:07,510 --> 00:02:05,520
then a humanoid about three and a half

43
00:02:08,389 --> 00:02:07,520
to four feet tall came out from behind

44
00:02:10,469 --> 00:02:08,399
the object

45
00:02:12,550 --> 00:02:10,479
it had something in its hand that was

46
00:02:14,710 --> 00:02:12,560
shaped like a black funnel it put it

47
00:02:17,030 --> 00:02:14,720
near to the ground and then lifted it up

48
00:02:19,190 --> 00:02:17,040
to its hip it went back behind the

49
00:02:21,350 --> 00:02:19,200
object there was a loud noise and a

50
00:02:24,470 --> 00:02:21,360
bright blue flare bursted from beneath

51
00:02:26,869 --> 00:02:24,480
the ship the object rose up and the big

52
00:02:29,110 --> 00:02:26,879
ship reappeared the white spherical

53
00:02:31,589 --> 00:02:29,120
object connected itself to a rod that

54
00:02:34,229 --> 00:02:31,599
pulled it into a round hole in the big

55
00:02:37,110 --> 00:02:34,239
ship the big ship then took off at

56

and correspondents of his have kept a

63
00:02:59,190 --> 00:02:57,200
watch on this case and now report that

64
00:03:01,670 --> 00:02:59,200
developments have cast doubts on the

65
00:03:03,670 --> 00:03:01,680
authenticity of the photograph almost

66
00:03:06,470 --> 00:03:03,680
wrote that that was the end of it in the

67
00:03:09,190 --> 00:03:06,480
literature for years according to almost

68
00:03:12,229 --> 00:03:09,200
the picture showed up on page 230 in a

69
00:03:15,030 --> 00:03:12,239
1980 book by margaret sachs the ufo

70
00:03:17,350 --> 00:03:15,040
encyclopedia with a caption saying that

00:03:19,910 --> 00:03:17,360
the creature has been identified as a

72
00:03:21,990 --> 00:03:19,920
model with an egg in the background

73
00:03:22,830 --> 00:03:22,000

coleman von kavitsky almost points out

78
00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:34,000
that researcher bob richards used the

79
00:03:38,789 --> 00:03:35,760
quote in an article he wrote and had

80
00:03:41,350 --> 00:03:38,799
published in the april may 1995 for teen

81
00:03:44,789 --> 00:03:41,360
times and that james lewis used it in

82
00:03:46,630 --> 00:03:44,799
his 2000 book ufos and popular culture

83
00:03:49,509 --> 00:03:46,640
other researchers also considered the

84
00:03:52,949 --> 00:03:49,519
photo to be a hoax including luis ruiz

85
00:03:55,750 --> 00:03:52,959
nogues who theorized in his 1996 book

86
00:03:58,630 --> 00:03:55,760
100 photos of extraterrestrials that the

87
00:04:01,030 --> 00:03:58,640
photo was of a little model and a fake

88
00:04:03,429 --> 00:04:01,040
made by the typical precocious u.s

claimed to have taken this photo of an

94
00:04:19,590 --> 00:04:16,959
e.t in his backyard in reality the alien

95
00:04:21,990 --> 00:04:19,600

101
00:04:35,990 --> 00:04:33,520
two-page letter hill wrote and sent to

of all there wasn't an animals around

105
00:04:46,950 --> 00:04:45,199
almost had a consultant andre duarte

106
00:04:49,430 --> 00:04:46,960
examined the picture and the first

107
00:04:51,749 --> 00:04:49,440
discrepancy duarte found was with the

108
00:04:54,550 --> 00:04:51,759
angle of the light according to him it

109
00:04:57,350 --> 00:04:54,560
should have been 75 degrees at 2 pm but

110
00:04:59,670 --> 00:04:57,360
was instead 25 degrees in the picture

111
00:05:02,629 --> 00:04:59,680
duarte also found that the craft should

112
00:05:06,390 --> 00:05:02,639
have appeared much larger if hills
