1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000 From Fort Langley, British Columbia, it may look like a cross between a flying saucer and an outdoor barbecue, 2 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:12,000 but this, according to the men who are building it, is the future's best hope for a pollution-free vehicle. 3 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:22,000 It's called the Grappital Magnetic Device, a strange flying machine that its designers say will one day levitate using only magnets. 4 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:30,000 Stranger Still are the claims of designer David Hamill that he received the plans for his machine during an abduction experience. 5 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:37,000 He are Sinclair's an electronics engineer who first met Hamill in 1989 and has been one of his staunchest supporters ever since, 6 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:43,000 promoting Hamill's revolutionary ideas and helping to construct a first GMD prototype. 7 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:53,000 The GMD, the Grappital Magnetic Device, is a device designed to produce anti-gravitational energy. 8 00:00:53,000 --> 00:01:00,000 That means a machine that can produce a gravitational field that can be moved around it. 9 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:06,000 So that means you can use that for propulsion or you can use that to make a new type of electricity. 10 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:14,000 Sinclair has co-authored a book about Hamill's abduction experience and the evolution of GMD plans and prototypes. 11 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:23,000 It was very important to communicate to the public what the story was about, what the technology was about, because of its importance. 12 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:28,000 Because of the man himself, David Hamill was not the kind of man to explain it to everybody. 13 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:34,000 He was the man to make the machine, not to explain it. He needed somebody else to convey the message. That was my job. 14 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:41,000 Sinclair acknowledges that anti-gravity is regarded as unobtainable fringe science, but in Hamill are not deterred. 15 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:54,000 My long-term hopes for the GMD are that someone somewhere will pick on this technology and bring it about so that this technology becomes about it. 16 00:01:54,000 --> 00:02:03,000 We can clean the earth. All this pollution that we have right now, it's time to carry on to better and more useful and cleaner sources of energy. 17 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,000 We have the potential to do it and the GMD is one of those. 18 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:17,000 We'll have more stories in the news next time. Now, here's what's coming up as sightings continues. 19 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,000 Can these case studies convince the world that UFOs really do exist? 20 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:26,000 You have to get past this business where everybody thinks it's a kooky crackpot subject. 21 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:36,000 It's not available to the public, but there is a report that's generating a tremendous amount of excitement within the international UFO community. 22 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,000 The report is called UFO Briefing Document, the best available evidence. 23 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:48,000 And it is exactly that, 170 pages of what a scientific panel believes is proof that we are not alone. 24 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:57,000 Sikoro, New Mexico, 1964. Tehran, Iran, 1976. 25 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:01,000 Rendlesham Forest, England, 1980. 26 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:11,000 These are three of the most compelling cases in the history of ufology, and their complete stories, as well as other sightings and research called from obscure files, 27 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:15,000 are presented in UFOs, the best available evidence. 28 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:21,000 It is designed to convince world leaders that UFOs are a phenomenon worthy of serious investigation, 29 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:27,000 by presenting the most compelling research from the three largest UFO organizations in the world. 30 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:36,000 The cases were selected on the basis of being well documented with such things as military intelligence reports, 31 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,000 and they were chosen to represent many different countries. 32 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,000 They were also chosen because they were myth busters. 33 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:53,000 For example, the popular notion that UFO eyewitnesses are crackpots is blasted in the Sikoro case, with the chief witness was a police officer. 34 00:03:53,000 --> 00:04:00,000 UFO landed in the desert outside of a little New Mexican town and was sighted by a police officer, Lonnie Zamora. 35 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:06,000 And the object took off with a roar and flew away silently. 36 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,000 No one has ever cast doubt upon this guy. 37 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:15,000 He doesn't have a lot of scientific background, but he's a highly dependable witness with a good eye. 38 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:24,000 Also, the case was investigated within a couple of hours by a man from Army Intelligence and a man from the FBI. 39 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,000 They were highly impressed by him. 40 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:35,000 An encounter between a UFO and Iran's Air Force dispels the myth that UFOs are aircraft misidentified by the public. 41 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,000 They sent an F-4 Phantom jet to chase after it. 42 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,000 The pilot made contact. 43 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:49,000 He armed a missile on instructions from the base and was about to shoot this thing whereupon the whole missile panel, electronics went dead. 44 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,000 This pilot turned back to basis and in second F-4, same thing happened. 45 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,000 He tried to arm a missile, the panel went dead. 46 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:05,000 UFOs have throughout the years shown a capability to cause electromagnetic effects and they seem to be able to understand what a weapon is. 47 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:12,000 The explanation that these are secret weapons of earthly origin does not explain the Bentwaters incident. 48 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:26,000 The sightings in Bentwaters, England during December of 1980, very significant cases because they involve numerous military witnesses including the deputy base commander. 49 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,000 He personally saw things flying around in the sky. 50 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:35,000 He personally saw light beams coming down in the vicinity of the atomic weapons storage area. 51 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:51,000 Most things people report as UFOs are explainable, but there's a hard core of sightings such as the ones in the best available evidence that simply cannot be explained by any known means. 52 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:57,000 And these have convinced me that they are not terrestrial. 53 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,000 You have to get past this business where everybody thinks it's a kooky crackpot subject. 54 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,000 We're not talking about Elvis is alive and living on Mars. 55 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:10,000 We're talking about geometrical metallic appearing craft-like objects that are flying around the atmosphere. 56 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:17,000 They've been reported for example by military pilots from perhaps 15 different countries around the world. 57 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:23,000 The documents authors know the world won't be to pass to their door, but they hope this will be a start. 58 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:38,000 I think the best thing that could happen from this project is that world leaders would begin to treat this seriously and band together to get something accomplished and get past the low level of dialogue that exists and the stereotypes that exist. 59 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,000 The stereotypes are terrible. They're totally false. 60 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:49,000 We're dealing with such astounding information here that you can tone it down all you want and it's still pretty amazing. 61 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:55,000 In the past, sightings has investigated many of the incidents reviewed in the best available evidence. 62 00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:01,000 And an investigation is ongoing right now to unravel one of the greatest enigmas of World War II. 63 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:06,000 Who Fighters? On a Future Broadcast. 64 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:14,000 The UFO briefing document is not available to the general public, but Richard Hall and Don Berliner have prepared an executive summary of the report. 65 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:21,000 It is available from the Fund for UFO Research in Mount Rainier, Maryland or through the Fund's website. 66 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:26,000 Does this video solve once and for all the mystery of crop circles? 67 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,000 The crop circles are being made by someone other than Earth people. 68 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,000 Or is it just a fabulous fake? 69 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,000 We have to be extremely careful. 70 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:40,000 Sightings talks to the experts. 71 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:45,000 You're about to see some of the most amazing home video that's ever reached us here at sightings. 72 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,000 It was shot by an amateur photographer standing on a bull-off above an English wheat field. 73 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:54,000 It may be the first real evidence that crop circles are formed by extraterrestrial forces. 74 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,000 Or it may be a hoax. 75 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:00,000 But if it is a hoax, it's a very good one. 76 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:12,000 Watch carefully. You are about to see the creation of a crop circle. 77 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,000 This is amazing. 78 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:26,000 If this video is genuine, it is the holy grail because we have something that absolutely proves crop circles are formed without human intervention. 79 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:31,000 We will see the temptation to want to run with it and believe it simply at face value. 80 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:35,000 But that will do all of us no good whatsoever. 81 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,000 So we have to be extremely careful. 82 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:46,000 World-renowned crop circle experts Colin Andrews and Peter Sorensen were among the first to see the extraordinary video. 83 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:52,000 They were astonished because the amateur home video seems to prove the researcher's hypothesis 84 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:59,000 that there is a connection between crop circles and the so-called mystery lights, often sighted in the same area. 85 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:06,000 The cameraman is pointing his camera towards a wheat field into the right-hand side of the frame. 86 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:11,000 Suddenly appears two small spheres moving from right to left. 87 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:16,000 The spheres then take a course of a semi-ring around the field. 88 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:27,000 Suddenly in the center of the field, the central circle is formed and six circles on the ends of the arms are also in position. 89 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:39,000 The third phase comes when two more spheres appear from the east and then the connecting pathways, the arms, drop into position. 90 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:46,000 I must say at the very beginning I thought, wow, this feels right. This guy seems genuine about everything. 91 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:53,000 And it wasn't until I began to watch it frame by frame that I began to be suspicious of things. 92 00:09:53,000 --> 00:10:00,000 Sorensen is particularly suspicious because man holding the camera seems to know what will happen before it does. 93 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:05,000 A very important thing to look for on this video is that during this key shot, 94 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,000 the camera seems to be wiggling a little bit like it's a handheld camera. 95 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,000 If it is a handheld camera, how come he didn't follow the lights when they go off-screen? 96 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:17,000 Instead he's already where exactly where the crop circle is going to be. 97 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:22,000 Could someone have created this videotape using computer graphics and other special effects? 98 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,000 Jim Pilatoso is an animation expert who has analyzed the video. 99 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:30,000 There's no evidence that this is a hoax. 100 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:37,000 I'm not saying that it's real. I'm saying that there's no evidence of a hoax. 101 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:43,000 The people I've worked with in computer animation studios could do this kind of thing in about four hours. 102 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:50,000 People are fooled by what complex and simple computers can do. This is like that. 103 00:10:50,000 --> 00:11:00,000 We're trying to determine, like in Forrest Gump, if Forrest Gump was really shaking hands with John Kennedy, 104 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:06,000 it's not enough to say, oh yes, it's a fake. Well how was it fake? 105 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:12,000 Unlike other analysts, Pilatoso claims to have no personal bias in this case. 106 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:21,000 When we test video, the temptation is to go into it with the presupposition. 107 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,000 It's real and I'm going to find a way to prove it. 108 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:32,000 Or the temptation is to say, it's a hoax and I'm going to prove how it's a hoax. 109 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:40,000 What we have to do is enter into the testing to gather data and then we can draw a conclusion. 110 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:48,000 What is certain, of course, is that the formation, the pattern we see forming on this video did appear. 111 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:53,000 I mean it is physical. It was there in the field. We've seen it, measured it at ground level. 112 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:59,000 We've filmed it from the air. It is real. That is undoubtedly true. 113 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:04,000 But the team working with me that entered that field, they didn't like what they saw. 114 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:11,000 They saw many footprints, they saw compression of the soil, they saw plants that were heavily damaged 115 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:15,000 and a spiraling symmetry which was highly suspicious. 116 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:20,000 If the tape is a hoax, Pilatoso says, it was not created with computer tricks. 117 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:27,000 Every camera, whether home or professional, every tape deck has areas in between the frames. 118 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,000 Just like in a strip of movie film. There's space in between the frames. 119 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:39,000 In video, there's information in that space. And that information is called the vertical interval. 120 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:48,000 There is no evidence in the vertical interval of digital processing, meaning no paint box, no computer, no tampering with the signal. 121 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:56,000 And there is no evidence that the photographer has made substantial financial or personal gains, bolstering his legitimacy. 122 00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:03,000 What we hear is the person we assume to be the camera operator says, this is amazing. 123 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,000 This is amazing. 124 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:14,000 But when we analyze the voice using psychological stress evaluation, this person is a little bit nervous. 125 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,000 This is amazing. 126 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:26,000 And the nature of the breathing changes rapidly as if the body was introduced to a moment of stress. 127 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:32,000 Point of the story. Doesn't seem like this guy is lying or acting. 128 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,000 Sorensen is not as charitable. 129 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:44,000 Suddenly we click to this fairly tight limited motion shot and now he's saying, this is amazing. 130 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:52,000 Now, frankly, if it was me, I'd be using four letter words to think, wow, this is fantastic. 131 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:59,000 That's what I would have been saying. But he says, oh, this is amazing. I mean, that's too British. 132 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:08,000 But what has the photographer to gain? He hasn't made a bundle or become a media sensation. Why create such a hose? 133 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:27,000 This is an important tape because what you see on the tape represents either a hoax or it represents a truly significant clue, a key, a demonstration into what this means. 134 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:38,000 There's tremendous evidence that the crop circles are very meaningful, very significant and are being made by someone other than earth people. 135 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:47,000 I guess I want to believe Israel, but we must still whip the facts. We don't want to see a mess in the making. 136 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:53,000 And that is what this might turn out to be. 137 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:59,000 The problem with the crop circle video is the same problem researchers are having with the Roswell Autopsy film. 138 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:05,000 The photographers refuse to come forward publicly. This is perhaps the strongest case for the video and the film being hopes. 139 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:11,000 If you shot historic, legitimate footage, wouldn't you want people to know who you are?
