1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000 There's been a marked increase in the number of people who claim to have had contact with alien beings. 2 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:15,000 Some of them tell disturbing stories of abuse and claim to have real physical scars from the close encounters they found terrifying. 3 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:20,000 When it comes to UFO encounters, Hollywood has had a field day. 4 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:25,000 The movies have portrayed aliens as comical spacemen or as benevolent creatures. 5 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000 But the movies we love to laugh at have nothing to do with reality. 6 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,000 Reality is a woman named Vicki Landrum. 7 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:41,000 I go to grocery store and people wouldn't make fun of me. 8 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:49,000 I try to go to church and the past dress me up come. 9 00:00:49,000 --> 00:01:00,000 Vicki Landrum has struggled to convince the government and the public that contact with extraterrestrials has left her scarred and riddled with disease. 10 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:05,000 It's not just a light in the sky or somebody thinks they saw something. 11 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:10,000 A real serious case, you know they've seen something. It changes people's lives. 12 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:15,000 They're never the same afterwards if they've had a close encounter or if they've been injured. 13 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:25,000 Houston, 1980. They were driving on a deserted road. Betty Cash, Vicki Landrum and her 7-year-old grandson Colby. 14 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:33,000 They claim to have had a UFO encounter that left more than memories burned in the minds of these three victims. 15 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:38,000 I kept screaming for Betty to get back in the car. 16 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:49,000 So finally she came to get back in the car and when she caught a hold of that handle, it burned her ring into her finger. 17 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,000 That car was that hot. 18 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:56,000 They all had stomach aches, they all had diarrhea, they all vomited, they were all burned. 19 00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:05,000 They all developed sores later. They all lost some hair. Mrs. Cash, most of her hair, Mrs. Landrum less and the boy even less. 20 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:10,000 But in each case, something happened that is typical of radiation exposure. 21 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:17,000 My eyes were burned so till they swelled till I couldn't hardly see. 22 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:23,000 I couldn't see how to read or watch TV or do nothing. 23 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:30,000 And every time I'd get out in the sun, there'd be big blisters and I had sores all over my arms. 24 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:38,000 And after this happened to me, well, I couldn't work. I didn't have no friends to talk to. 25 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,000 So it just made me like army. 26 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:54,000 The Cash Landrum case, as I call it, to me is a very significant case because we have a situation where we had a very large flying machine that came over the road that actually left marks on the road. 27 00:02:54,000 --> 00:03:02,000 And you know where it was exactly. It left burns on the trees, it left burns on the people, it changed their physiology. 28 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:08,000 It's a composite of many UFO cases all rolled into one with very horrifying results. 29 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:15,000 While campaigning for the presidency in 1976, Jimmy Carter claimed he had seen a UFO. 30 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:20,000 Carter vowed to make all government materials on UFO sightings available to the public. 31 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:28,000 20 years earlier, Andy Florio, a big band musician, had an encounter with a UFO in Arizona and experienced burns similar to Vicki Landrum's. 32 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:33,000 Now, he wants the government to make good on Jimmy Carter's promise. 33 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:43,000 Jimmy Carter made a commitment to the American people that he would release all UFO secrecy to the American people if he became president, which he did not do. 34 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:51,000 As a citizen and so forth, and as a victim of a UFO, I'm madder than hell. It's always to it. 35 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:57,000 My elbows burned me 37 years, man. It's going to burn me the rest of my life. I know it. It's burning me now. 36 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,000 There are many secrets in this world kept by various governments and various peoples. 37 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:09,000 In this particular case, if someone would just say what happened, whether it was extraterrestrial or it was a military experiment or whatever, 38 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,000 we would all rest easier in knowing that it's something that's known. 39 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:20,000 Although the government claims no responsibility, an Army colonel was sent to investigate Vicki Landrum's claims. 40 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:35,000 He questioned me and I answered him. And then he told me that people had died, but listen, what I was trying to do. 41 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:43,000 Some investigators suggest that the Colonel's subtle threat was linked to helicopters Vicki saw surrounding the UFO. 42 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:51,000 The helicopters came from different directions. There were groups of them that came in ways. One group came from the southwest, one came in from the east, 43 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:58,000 and they all converged on the same area. Several of the helicopters flew around this object like they were trying to hem it in. 44 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:06,000 The government wanted to experiment on something and they take the lives of people to do it. 45 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:17,000 Our system is not set up to explain the unexplainable. People all over this country are mysteriously injured, even killed every year. 46 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:22,000 Vicki Landrum believes some of them may have met with deadly alien forces. 47 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:30,000 Because she is seriously ill, Vicki won't be silenced. She speaks out in the hope that others will not suffer her terrible fate.
