troops 32 00:01:47,670 --> 00:01:44,720 guarding the often tense 2100 mile 33 00:01:50,389 --> 00:01:47,680 border between india and china reported 34 00:01:52,630 --> 00:01:50,399 seeing strange objects in the sky 35 00:01:55,350 --> 00:01:52,640 these objects were described as yellow 36 00:01:58,149 --> 00:01:55,360 spheres that appeared to lift off from 37 00:02:01,109 --> 00:01:58,159 the chinese side slowly transversing the 38 00:02:02,789 --> 00:02:01,119 sky for three to five hours before 39 00:02:05,270 --> 00:02:02,799 disappearing 40 00:02:08,630 --> 00:02:05,280 indian military officials reportedly 41 00:02:10,070 --> 00:02:08,640 ruled out chinese drones or low orbit 42 00:02:12,949 --> 00:02:10,080 satellites 43 00:02:16,229 --> 00:02:12,959 the sightings also stumped their defense 44 00:02:18,949 --> 00:02:16,239 and technical research organizations 45 00:02:22,869 --> 00:02:18,959 many news outlets in india even dubbed 46 00:02:24,869 --> 00:02:22,879 the object's ulos or unidentified 47 00:02:27,750 --> 00:02:24,879 luminous objects 48 00:02:30,229 --> 00:02:27,760 in any case the indian army reportedly 49 00:02:33,910 --> 00:02:30,239 deployed a mobile ground-based radar 50 00:02:36,630 --> 00:02:33,920 unit and a spectrum analyzer to assess 51 00:02:38,070 --> 00:02:36,640 what was dancing so liberally over the 52 00:02:40,070 --> 00:02:38,080 border 53 00:02:41,910 --> 00:02:40,080 as the troops watched the light show 54 00:02:44,710 --> 00:02:41,920 however the machines picked up 55 00:02:46,790 --> 00:02:44,720 absolutely nothing surmising that 56 00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:46,800 whatever these objects were they were 57 00:02:51,110 --> 00:02:48,800 non-metallic 58 00:02:54,949 --> 00:02:51,120 the army reportedly aimed one of their 59 00:02:58,710 --> 00:02:54,959 drones in the direction of these ulos 60 00:03:01,430 --> 00:02:58,720 and in an instant they all disappeared 61 00:03:03,750 --> 00:03:01,440 astronomers were also called in 62 00:03:06,309 --> 00:03:03,760 according to local media they saw some 63 00:03:08,869 --> 00:03:06,319 of the same unexplained objects but gave 64 00:03:10,949 --> 00:03:08,879 up after three days concluding that 65 00:03:13,030 --> 00:03:10,959 whatever these objects were they were 66 00:03:15,270 --> 00:03:13,040 non-celestial 67 00:03:18,470 --> 00:03:15,280 indian border troops reported these 68 00:03:20,229 --> 00:03:18,480 objects for over a span of three months 69 00:03:21,509 --> 00:03:20,239 totaling over a hundred different 70 00:03:25,589 --> 00:03:21,519 sightings 71 00:03:28,229 --> 00:03:25,599 been explained 72 00:03:30,390 --> 00:03:28,239 was this some sort of technology game 73 00:03:33,110 --> 00:03:30,400 being played out by china 74 00:03:35,910 --> 00:03:33,120 or could it have been something possibly 75 00:03:38,710 --> 00:03:35,920 otherworldly 76 00:03:41,430 --> 00:03:38,720 india has a long history of unidentified 77 00:03:44,149 --> 00:03:41,440 flying objects and futuristic aerial 78 00:03:46,949 --> 00:03:44,159 vehicles that if the ancient texts are 79 00:03:49,190 --> 00:03:46,959 to be believed stretch back thousands 80 00:03:51,190 --> 00:03:49,200 and thousands of years 81 00:03:53,750 --> 00:03:51,200 what's particularly interesting about 82 00:03:56,550 --> 00:03:53,760 the ancient sanskrit texts is that they 83 00:03:57,830 --> 00:03:56,560 appear to speak openly of beings from 84 00:04:01,750 --> 00:03:57,840 another world 85 00:04:04,550 --> 00:04:01,760 machines that fly on earth and in space 86 00:04:06,309 --> 00:04:04,560 as well as ancient wars with advanced 87 00:04:08,630 --> 00:04:06,319 weapons 88 00:04:11,190 --> 00:04:08,640 what's more many people including 89 00:04:13,350 --> 00:04:11,200 scholars who have studied them take them 90 00:04:15,429 --> 00:04:13,360 as absolute fact 91 00:04:17,830 --> 00:04:15,439 this general widespread belief in the 92 00:04:20,550 --> 00:04:17,840 realities of such texts is perhaps 93 00:04:22,790 --> 00:04:20,560 vindicated in the many instructions on 94 00:04:25,270 --> 00:04:22,800 how to construct and operate these 95 00:04:26,790 --> 00:04:25,280 advanced vehicles contained within their 96 00:04:28,790 --> 00:04:26,800 pages 97 00:04:30,790 --> 00:04:28,800 and just like many other places 98 00:04:34,070 --> 00:04:30,800 throughout the world these sightings of 99 00:04:35,430 --> 00:04:34,080 advanced vehicles continue even up until 100 00:04:37,830 --> 00:04:35,440 today 101 00:04:44,030 --> 00:04:37,840 this is the rich and extraordinary 102 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:53,590 [Music] 103 00:04:58,300 --> 00:04:56,469 this is somewhere in the skies with ryan 104 00:05:24,310 --> 00:04:58,310 spread 105 00:05:29,550 --> 00:05:27,110 the following ufo event was reported to 106 00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:29,560 the national ufo reporting center in 107 00:05:35,990 --> 00:05:34,720 2002 june 30th 1988 in the madras region 108 00:05:38,710 --> 00:05:36,000 of india 109 00:05:41,029 --> 00:05:38,720 chennai city to be exact 110 00:05:42,870 --> 00:05:41,039 the witness returned to the hostel where 111 00:05:45,510 --> 00:05:42,880 they were staying 112 00:05:47,350 --> 00:05:45,520 as he usually did he shut the door and 113 00:05:49,430 --> 00:05:47,360 went about opening the windows in order 114 00:05:51,670 --> 00:05:49,440 to let in some fresh air 115 00:05:54,469 --> 00:05:51,680 after doing so he went to remove his 116 00:05:56,150 --> 00:05:54,479 shoes it was then that things turned 117 00:05:59,029 --> 00:05:56,160 strange 118 00:06:00,790 --> 00:05:59,039 the witness claimed the following 119 00:06:02,870 --> 00:06:00,800 the window slammed crazily with the 120 00:06:04,790 --> 00:06:02,880 sudden gust of wind and everything 121 00:06:07,189 --> 00:06:04,800 became very dark 122 00:06:09,270 --> 00:06:07,199 i wanted to know what was happening so i 123 00:06:11,189 --> 00:06:09,280 went out under the balcony of my room i 124 00:06:13,270 --> 00:06:11,199 looked up in the sky and i noticed how a 125 00:06:14,629 --> 00:06:13,280 certain part of it had turned into an 126 00:06:16,870 --> 00:06:14,639 inky blue 127 00:06:19,110 --> 00:06:16,880 but only to a limited area then i 128 00:06:20,870 --> 00:06:19,120 noticed a flash of red light coming from 129 00:06:22,629 --> 00:06:20,880 above the clouds 130 00:06:25,029 --> 00:06:22,639 at first i thought maybe it was a 131 00:06:27,189 --> 00:06:25,039 helicopter coming down for a landing 132 00:06:28,710 --> 00:06:27,199 however the closer i looked the more i 133 00:06:30,390 --> 00:06:28,720 realized that the light was not 134 00:06:32,870 --> 00:06:30,400 flickering like a helicopter would it 135 00:06:34,390 --> 00:06:32,880 was just hovering in the same place 136 00:06:36,150 --> 00:06:34,400 the other very strange thing that caught 137 00:06:38,469 --> 00:06:36,160 my attention was that there was 138 00:06:40,150 --> 00:06:38,479 absolutely no sound coming from whatever 139 00:06:42,390 --> 00:06:40,160 this was 140 00:06:45,350 --> 00:06:42,400 the next thing the witness realized the 141 00:06:47,430 --> 00:06:45,360 light had changed from red to orange 142 00:06:48,710 --> 00:06:47,440 and of more concern it was growing 143 00:06:50,950 --> 00:06:48,720 larger 144 00:06:53,990 --> 00:06:50,960 it was at this time that the light took 145 00:06:55,670 --> 00:06:54,000 on a distinct oval shaped appearance 146 00:06:58,950 --> 00:06:55,680 the lights then begin to change color 147 00:07:01,270 --> 00:06:58,960 once more from pink to yellow to orange 148 00:07:03,510 --> 00:07:01,280 and then back to red 149 00:07:04,870 --> 00:07:03,520 as well as changing color it appeared to 150 00:07:06,790 --> 00:07:04,880 grow brighter 151 00:07:08,550 --> 00:07:06,800 the witness then came to another 152 00:07:09,909 --> 00:07:08,560 realization 153 00:07:12,230 --> 00:07:09,919 i was alone 154 00:07:13,670 --> 00:07:12,240 and i feared that if i reported this no 155 00:07:15,589 --> 00:07:13,680 one would believe me 156 00:07:17,670 --> 00:07:15,599 so i ran to another room and grabbed 157 00:07:19,510 --> 00:07:17,680 someone from across the hall i literally 158 00:07:22,469 --> 00:07:19,520 dragged him back to the window and 159 00:07:24,150 --> 00:07:22,479 showed him it was clear he saw it too 160 00:07:26,870 --> 00:07:24,160 the object appeared to head in their 161 00:07:27,990 --> 00:07:26,880 direction before coming to a stop once 162 00:07:30,230 --> 00:07:28,000 more 163 00:07:32,309 --> 00:07:30,240 it remained motionless for several 164 00:07:34,469 --> 00:07:32,319 seconds and then took off at a 165 00:07:36,070 --> 00:07:34,479 relatively fast speed 166 00:07:37,510 --> 00:07:36,080 skimming through the air at a high 167 00:07:39,670 --> 00:07:37,520 altitude 168 00:07:42,309 --> 00:07:39,680 as the pair watched the object then 169 00:07:44,309 --> 00:07:42,319 began to decrease in size becoming no 170 00:07:46,070 --> 00:07:44,319 more than a faint light within a matter 171 00:07:49,110 --> 00:07:46,080 of seconds 172 00:07:51,589 --> 00:07:49,120 and then it disappeared 173 00:07:53,589 --> 00:07:51,599 however this would not be the last time 174 00:07:55,909 --> 00:07:53,599 that this witness would see something 175 00:07:58,309 --> 00:07:55,919 strange in the skies 176 00:07:59,670 --> 00:07:58,319 several nights later he found himself on 177 00:08:01,749 --> 00:07:59,680 the balcony 178 00:08:05,110 --> 00:08:01,759 with several other people who lived at 179 00:08:08,070 --> 00:08:05,120 the hostel it was around 10 pm and the 180 00:08:10,070 --> 00:08:08,080 subject of the bizarre object came up 181 00:08:12,390 --> 00:08:10,080 as the witness began to tell them of the 182 00:08:14,070 --> 00:08:12,400 encounter he had had he realized that 183 00:08:15,510 --> 00:08:14,080 they were not taking his account 184 00:08:17,270 --> 00:08:15,520 seriously 185 00:08:19,670 --> 00:08:17,280 even though he had a corroborating 186 00:08:21,749 --> 00:08:19,680 witness to the event although this 187 00:08:23,830 --> 00:08:21,759 witness remained tight-lipped during the 188 00:08:26,869 --> 00:08:23,840 relaying of the account 189 00:08:29,909 --> 00:08:26,879 the exchange grew slightly heated until 190 00:08:32,630 --> 00:08:29,919 the witness noticed something in the sky 191 00:08:34,389 --> 00:08:32,640 it was the exact same object we all 192 00:08:36,709 --> 00:08:34,399 watched it for a while and nobody could 193 00:08:38,469 --> 00:08:36,719 make sense of it that shut them all up 194 00:08:40,389 --> 00:08:38,479 pretty quickly 195 00:08:42,550 --> 00:08:40,399 over the course of the following months 196 00:08:44,790 --> 00:08:42,560 the witness would see this strange craft 197 00:08:46,790 --> 00:08:44,800 on several other occasions 198 00:08:49,829 --> 00:08:46,800 and the more he witnessed the object the 199 00:08:51,190 --> 00:08:49,839 more detail he began to note about it it 200 00:08:52,790 --> 00:08:51,200 always seemed to appear in the direction 201 00:08:55,590 --> 00:08:52,800 of the airport and head out toward the 202 00:08:57,990 --> 00:08:55,600 sea it also seemed to move with the lazy 203 00:08:59,750 --> 00:08:58,000 feel until it reached the coast 204 00:09:01,829 --> 00:08:59,760 at that point it would increase speed 205 00:09:03,910 --> 00:09:01,839 dramatically there was another time it 206 00:09:05,829 --> 00:09:03,920 approached a fighter jet at great speed 207 00:09:08,230 --> 00:09:05,839 and when it caught up to it it came to a 208 00:09:10,630 --> 00:09:08,240 sudden stop above it and then maintained 209 00:09:12,790 --> 00:09:10,640 a distance but followed it until i 210 00:09:14,630 --> 00:09:12,800 couldn't see it anymore 211 00:09:16,070 --> 00:09:14,640 i don't know what this thing is but it 212 00:09:19,350 --> 00:09:16,080 keeps coming back 213 00:09:22,389 --> 00:09:19,360 and i just keep seeing it 214 00:09:24,870 --> 00:09:22,399 as the 2000s began to unfold more and 215 00:09:26,070 --> 00:09:24,880 more ufos begin to be reported over 216 00:09:28,150 --> 00:09:26,080 india 217 00:09:30,710 --> 00:09:28,160 and while this is likely due to the 218 00:09:33,190 --> 00:09:30,720 advancements in technology such as the 219 00:09:35,910 --> 00:09:33,200 availability of mobile phones to capture 220 00:09:38,150 --> 00:09:35,920 footage as well as the internet which 221 00:09:39,670 --> 00:09:38,160 ensures such sightings are not forgotten 222 00:09:42,710 --> 00:09:39,680 over the course of time 223 00:09:45,269 --> 00:09:42,720 the fact is it's most likely that these 224 00:09:46,790 --> 00:09:45,279 sightings are a continuation of events 225 00:09:49,750 --> 00:09:46,800 that have occurred here for a 226 00:09:51,430 --> 00:09:49,760 considerably long time 227 00:09:53,590 --> 00:09:51,440 now some of these sightings are more 228 00:09:55,670 --> 00:09:53,600 intriguing than others 229 00:09:56,790 --> 00:09:55,680 and many of them share very similar 230 00:09:58,710 --> 00:09:56,800 details 231 00:10:00,949 --> 00:09:58,720 perhaps lending them a little more 232 00:10:03,190 --> 00:10:00,959 credibility 233 00:10:07,030 --> 00:10:03,200 the following sighting would receive 234 00:10:10,230 --> 00:10:07,040 coverage in local newspapers 235 00:10:14,710 --> 00:10:10,240 it was april 10th 2001 when this event 236 00:10:17,030 --> 00:10:14,720 took place over darwat in karnataka 237 00:10:19,190 --> 00:10:17,040 the main witness a student at the time 238 00:10:20,550 --> 00:10:19,200 was sitting outside the room with two 239 00:10:22,069 --> 00:10:20,560 friends 240 00:10:24,389 --> 00:10:22,079 we were having a discussion when i 241 00:10:26,470 --> 00:10:24,399 happened to look up i noticed something 242 00:10:28,310 --> 00:10:26,480 strange in the dark sky above 243 00:10:30,790 --> 00:10:28,320 at first i thought maybe it was just a 244 00:10:32,550 --> 00:10:30,800 very big airplane but the more i focused 245 00:10:35,430 --> 00:10:32,560 on it that's when i realized it was a 246 00:10:37,829 --> 00:10:35,440 distinct triangle it had a white light 247 00:10:40,550 --> 00:10:37,839 on each corner on the underside it was 248 00:10:42,389 --> 00:10:40,560 descending and came very low if i was on 249 00:10:44,630 --> 00:10:42,399 the third or fourth floor of a building 250 00:10:46,710 --> 00:10:44,640 i probably could have touched it 251 00:10:49,430 --> 00:10:46,720 the triangular craft headed toward the 252 00:10:50,630 --> 00:10:49,440 mountains nearby the students began to 253 00:10:52,630 --> 00:10:50,640 follow it 254 00:10:54,870 --> 00:10:52,640 doing so for around five minutes 255 00:10:57,190 --> 00:10:54,880 estimating that it was moving between 20 256 00:10:59,269 --> 00:10:57,200 to 25 miles per hour 257 00:11:01,509 --> 00:10:59,279 the triangle disappeared over the side 258 00:11:03,670 --> 00:11:01,519 of a hill by the time they had made it 259 00:11:07,670 --> 00:11:03,680 to the top of the hill the witnesses 260 00:11:10,389 --> 00:11:07,680 reported that the object had vanished 261 00:11:12,790 --> 00:11:10,399 interestingly the following day a local 262 00:11:14,949 --> 00:11:12,800 newspaper ran an article claiming that 263 00:11:17,590 --> 00:11:14,959 several other people had witnessed the 264 00:11:21,030 --> 00:11:17,600 triangle a similar sighting unfolded 265 00:11:25,990 --> 00:11:21,040 around 18 months later over navi mumbai 266 00:11:27,990 --> 00:11:26,000 at just after 7 pm on december 20th 2003 267 00:11:29,990 --> 00:11:28,000 the witness who was on their way to a 268 00:11:33,990 --> 00:11:30,000 night class at the time noticed a 269 00:11:35,750 --> 00:11:34,000 glowing object in the early evening sky 270 00:11:37,990 --> 00:11:35,760 like many people who first noticed a 271 00:11:39,910 --> 00:11:38,000 glowing object overhead the witness at 272 00:11:42,710 --> 00:11:39,920 first believed what they were seeing was 273 00:11:44,949 --> 00:11:42,720 an airplane or a helicopter 274 00:11:46,949 --> 00:11:44,959 however as they looked at the object 275 00:11:49,430 --> 00:11:46,959 again they noticed that there was 276 00:11:51,590 --> 00:11:49,440 something strange about it 277 00:11:54,150 --> 00:11:51,600 as i focused more on the object i 278 00:11:56,870 --> 00:11:54,160 realized it had a triangular shape to it 279 00:11:59,509 --> 00:11:56,880 the light was actually three lights one 280 00:12:01,110 --> 00:11:59,519 on each corner of the triangular shape i 281 00:12:02,949 --> 00:12:01,120 would estimate that each side of the 282 00:12:04,710 --> 00:12:02,959 triangle was around three thousand feet 283 00:12:06,550 --> 00:12:04,720 in length and appeared to be flying at 284 00:12:09,110 --> 00:12:06,560 an altitude of around a thousand to 285 00:12:12,389 --> 00:12:09,120 fifteen hundred feet what really caught 286 00:12:15,590 --> 00:12:12,399 my attention was the lack of noise this 287 00:12:17,670 --> 00:12:15,600 craft was completely silent 288 00:12:21,910 --> 00:12:17,680 the object remained in sight for around 289 00:12:27,590 --> 00:12:24,470 on may 28 2006 290 00:12:29,269 --> 00:12:27,600 over karwar karnataka a witness was 291 00:12:31,430 --> 00:12:29,279 sitting on their balcony watching the 292 00:12:33,509 --> 00:12:31,440 sky overhead after dinner 293 00:12:35,990 --> 00:12:33,519 although it was dark the white clouds 294 00:12:38,310 --> 00:12:36,000 were still visible overhead which had 295 00:12:41,430 --> 00:12:38,320 captivated the witness's attention 296 00:12:43,990 --> 00:12:41,440 suddenly a huge bright strange thing 297 00:12:45,829 --> 00:12:44,000 appeared out of the clouds oscillating 298 00:12:48,069 --> 00:12:45,839 as it did so 299 00:12:51,030 --> 00:12:48,079 he watched the object for around 20 300 00:12:54,310 --> 00:12:51,040 minutes even noticing how a passenger 301 00:12:56,710 --> 00:12:54,320 jet passed by at one stage reinforcing 302 00:12:59,030 --> 00:12:56,720 the fact that he was viewing something 303 00:13:01,030 --> 00:12:59,040 truly extraordinary 304 00:13:03,509 --> 00:13:01,040 eventually the witness rushed downstairs 305 00:13:05,750 --> 00:13:03,519 to get his sister so that she could 306 00:13:08,150 --> 00:13:05,760 corroborate what he was seeing 307 00:13:10,949 --> 00:13:08,160 upon leading her up to the balcony she 308 00:13:12,629 --> 00:13:10,959 too witnessed the glowing craft 309 00:13:14,310 --> 00:13:12,639 each of them remained where they were 310 00:13:17,509 --> 00:13:14,320 for several minutes before the craft 311 00:13:19,190 --> 00:13:17,519 began to move into the distance 312 00:13:20,790 --> 00:13:19,200 although he believed that he and his 313 00:13:22,710 --> 00:13:20,800 sister had been the only people who had 314 00:13:26,069 --> 00:13:22,720 witnessed this event he would discover 315 00:13:28,389 --> 00:13:26,079 an article in the daily tanti newspaper 316 00:13:31,750 --> 00:13:28,399 several days later which described the 317 00:13:33,990 --> 00:13:31,760 same object that they'd seen 318 00:13:36,629 --> 00:13:34,000 another rotating disc shaped object was 319 00:13:40,470 --> 00:13:36,639 witnessed at around 11 15 pm 320 00:13:41,670 --> 00:13:40,480 on the evening of january 22nd over nda 321 00:13:44,150 --> 00:13:41,680 hill 322 00:13:46,470 --> 00:13:44,160 the witness a local man witnessed the 323 00:13:47,269 --> 00:13:46,480 strange object overhead as he parked his 324 00:13:49,430 --> 00:13:47,279 car 325 00:13:51,750 --> 00:13:49,440 he immediately called his wife informing 326 00:13:53,910 --> 00:13:51,760 her of what he was looking at 327 00:13:56,230 --> 00:13:53,920 after speaking with him she ran to grab 328 00:13:59,030 --> 00:13:56,240 her binoculars and attempted to locate 329 00:14:01,990 --> 00:13:59,040 the object her husband was describing 330 00:14:04,389 --> 00:14:02,000 amazingly she had it in her sights 331 00:14:06,470 --> 00:14:04,399 almost immediately 332 00:14:08,870 --> 00:14:06,480 she would recall how it was definitely 333 00:14:10,710 --> 00:14:08,880 disc shaped with stable lights on its 334 00:14:13,509 --> 00:14:10,720 circumference 335 00:14:15,189 --> 00:14:13,519 once more it was clearly rotating on its 336 00:14:17,509 --> 00:14:15,199 own axis 337 00:14:20,389 --> 00:14:17,519 it remained in this position for around 338 00:14:23,350 --> 00:14:20,399 30 seconds before it began to descend to 339 00:14:25,189 --> 00:14:23,360 the ground in a drifting motion 340 00:14:27,350 --> 00:14:25,199 it would ultimately disappear out of 341 00:14:30,230 --> 00:14:27,360 sight behind a nearby hill 342 00:14:32,389 --> 00:14:30,240 the witnesses ran to the hill to see 343 00:14:36,069 --> 00:14:32,399 what was on the other side and when they 344 00:14:38,949 --> 00:14:36,079 arrived there was nothing 345 00:14:40,870 --> 00:14:38,959 let's rewind a little ways back to the 346 00:14:44,230 --> 00:14:40,880 year 1927 347 00:14:47,350 --> 00:14:44,240 in the bordering region of nepal 348 00:14:50,069 --> 00:14:47,360 according to a 1964 nightcap report by 349 00:14:53,829 --> 00:14:50,079 richard hall a strange encounter with a 350 00:14:57,670 --> 00:14:53,839 ufo unfolded a little after 9 30 a.m on 351 00:15:01,350 --> 00:14:57,680 august 5th over the himalayan mountains 352 00:15:03,670 --> 00:15:01,360 the witness explorer nicholas rorick was 353 00:15:06,470 --> 00:15:03,680 by his caravan along with several other 354 00:15:09,670 --> 00:15:06,480 members of his team when they noticed a 355 00:15:11,590 --> 00:15:09,680 big black eagle flying overhead 356 00:15:13,990 --> 00:15:11,600 as they were watching the bird one of 357 00:15:16,310 --> 00:15:14,000 the group noticed a shiny oval-shaped 358 00:15:17,670 --> 00:15:16,320 object moving through the bright morning 359 00:15:19,430 --> 00:15:17,680 sky 360 00:15:22,629 --> 00:15:19,440 the rest of the group then noticed as 361 00:15:25,590 --> 00:15:22,639 well watching as a disc-shaped object 362 00:15:27,509 --> 00:15:25,600 reflected the sun brilliantly 363 00:15:30,550 --> 00:15:27,519 it was moving with great speed and 364 00:15:32,629 --> 00:15:30,560 changed direction several times 365 00:15:34,389 --> 00:15:32,639 despite the speed of the craft it was 366 00:15:36,949 --> 00:15:34,399 visible long enough for the witnesses to 367 00:15:39,350 --> 00:15:36,959 view it through their binoculars 368 00:15:42,230 --> 00:15:39,360 rorick would recall that they could see 369 00:15:44,230 --> 00:15:42,240 quite distinctly the oval form with a 370 00:15:47,990 --> 00:15:44,240 shiny surface 371 00:15:49,590 --> 00:15:48,000 the object would eventually disappear 372 00:15:51,590 --> 00:15:49,600 what the object might have been is 373 00:15:53,829 --> 00:15:51,600 clearly up for debate 374 00:15:55,509 --> 00:15:53,839 there has been though plenty of theories 375 00:15:58,389 --> 00:15:55,519 put forward to explain the bizarre 376 00:16:01,990 --> 00:15:58,399 sightings in nepal that morning 377 00:16:04,389 --> 00:16:02,000 ufo researcher leon davidson for example 378 00:16:06,710 --> 00:16:04,399 would claim that what the group saw was 379 00:16:10,310 --> 00:16:06,720 nothing but a weather balloon that was 380 00:16:13,189 --> 00:16:10,320 released by another expedition nearby 381 00:16:15,110 --> 00:16:13,199 however as richard hall points out given 382 00:16:16,790 --> 00:16:15,120 that weather balloons of the time would 383 00:16:19,030 --> 00:16:16,800 have been between two and four feet in 384 00:16:21,749 --> 00:16:19,040 length for it to have been visible to 385 00:16:24,069 --> 00:16:21,759 rauric and its team it would have meant 386 00:16:26,710 --> 00:16:24,079 that the swedish expedition would have 387 00:16:28,310 --> 00:16:26,720 to have been only a mile away 388 00:16:30,790 --> 00:16:28,320 essentially they would have almost 389 00:16:32,710 --> 00:16:30,800 literally bumped into one another at 390 00:16:34,629 --> 00:16:32,720 such short ranges 391 00:16:38,230 --> 00:16:34,639 what's more warwick would have been able 392 00:16:40,550 --> 00:16:38,240 to see the launch as well as hear it 393 00:16:43,990 --> 00:16:40,560 we know however that this wasn't the 394 00:16:47,189 --> 00:16:44,000 case the two parties were around 400 395 00:16:49,350 --> 00:16:47,199 miles from one another at their closest 396 00:16:51,389 --> 00:16:49,360 meeting point meaning the chances of it 397 00:16:53,189 --> 00:16:51,399 being a weather balloon are almost 398 00:16:55,189 --> 00:16:53,199 non-existent 399 00:16:56,790 --> 00:16:55,199 what's more rorick and his team claim 400 00:16:59,350 --> 00:16:56,800 that they viewed the object with their 401 00:17:02,069 --> 00:16:59,360 binoculars for several moments and could 402 00:17:03,990 --> 00:17:02,079 clearly see the detailed shape of it 403 00:17:05,829 --> 00:17:04,000 each would have been more than familiar 404 00:17:07,590 --> 00:17:05,839 with weather balloons and we might 405 00:17:10,549 --> 00:17:07,600 expect that they would have easily 406 00:17:13,750 --> 00:17:10,559 recognized the object 407 00:17:16,150 --> 00:17:13,760 moving back to the 1990s we visit a 408 00:17:19,990 --> 00:17:16,160 curious incident that occurred on april 409 00:17:21,990 --> 00:17:20,000 19 1990 when a saucer-shaped object was 410 00:17:25,029 --> 00:17:22,000 witnessed by several crew members of a 411 00:17:28,710 --> 00:17:25,039 tanker vessel the kim sang 412 00:17:32,390 --> 00:17:28,720 this bizarre object ascended from the 413 00:17:35,110 --> 00:17:32,400 ocean and started circling the ship 414 00:17:38,789 --> 00:17:35,120 the incident unfolded around 200 miles 415 00:17:42,549 --> 00:17:38,799 south of matara in the indian ocean 416 00:17:45,590 --> 00:17:42,559 rasika mawatha the 47 year old captain 417 00:17:49,110 --> 00:17:45,600 of the ship claimed the following it was 418 00:17:50,870 --> 00:17:49,120 at least five times the size of our ship 419 00:17:53,510 --> 00:17:50,880 i was so shocked that i nearly fainted 420 00:17:56,070 --> 00:17:53,520 from fright the entire crew all fell to 421 00:17:58,310 --> 00:17:56,080 the deck covering their heads from this 422 00:17:59,669 --> 00:17:58,320 massive craft that had just suddenly 423 00:18:03,430 --> 00:17:59,679 appeared 424 00:18:05,190 --> 00:18:03,440 the craft glowed and pulsated with light 425 00:18:07,590 --> 00:18:05,200 and there was also a thick beam of light 426 00:18:10,310 --> 00:18:07,600 that shined from the underside of it 427 00:18:12,630 --> 00:18:10,320 i had the feeling that whoever or 428 00:18:14,789 --> 00:18:12,640 whatever was inside it was 429 00:18:16,950 --> 00:18:14,799 scanning our vessel 430 00:18:19,590 --> 00:18:16,960 but it didn't end there 431 00:18:22,150 --> 00:18:19,600 not only was this strange craft possibly 432 00:18:23,510 --> 00:18:22,160 scanning the vessel but rendering it 433 00:18:25,270 --> 00:18:23,520 inoperable 434 00:18:27,430 --> 00:18:25,280 all of our ship's instruments went 435 00:18:30,230 --> 00:18:27,440 haywire our radio was completely dead 436 00:18:34,230 --> 00:18:30,240 and the needles on all of our compasses 437 00:18:36,150 --> 00:18:34,240 kept spinning around and around 438 00:18:38,310 --> 00:18:36,160 incidentally the moment the object 439 00:18:40,950 --> 00:18:38,320 vanished back beneath the waves the 440 00:18:43,430 --> 00:18:40,960 instruments radio and compasses all 441 00:18:45,350 --> 00:18:43,440 returned to normal 442 00:18:47,669 --> 00:18:45,360 although no one was injured during the 443 00:18:51,029 --> 00:18:47,679 incident the tanker itself suffered 444 00:18:53,350 --> 00:18:51,039 structural damage due to towering waves 445 00:18:55,190 --> 00:18:53,360 that hit when the craft first arose from 446 00:18:57,270 --> 00:18:55,200 the depths of the ocean 447 00:18:59,350 --> 00:18:57,280 following mawata's report of the 448 00:19:02,070 --> 00:18:59,360 incident authorities would search the 449 00:19:05,110 --> 00:19:02,080 area for several days in an attempt to 450 00:19:09,110 --> 00:19:05,120 locate the strange object however no 451 00:19:11,510 --> 00:19:09,120 signs of it were ever found 452 00:19:14,789 --> 00:19:11,520 according to an account in the may 10 453 00:19:17,590 --> 00:19:14,799 1998 edition of the sri lankan sunday 454 00:19:20,710 --> 00:19:17,600 times on the afternoon of april 30th 455 00:19:22,830 --> 00:19:20,720 1998 an unusual event occurred that 456 00:19:27,590 --> 00:19:22,840 involved school children from the 457 00:19:29,909 --> 00:19:27,600 adikaram primary school in bandara wayla 458 00:19:33,029 --> 00:19:29,919 on the day in question eight-year-old 459 00:19:35,190 --> 00:19:33,039 indica de sanyak arrived at school at 460 00:19:37,029 --> 00:19:35,200 around 6 30 am 461 00:19:39,190 --> 00:19:37,039 he went along to his classroom and 462 00:19:42,470 --> 00:19:39,200 dropped off his back inside when a 463 00:19:44,390 --> 00:19:42,480 sudden sharp noise reached his ears 464 00:19:47,270 --> 00:19:44,400 he would later recall that he thought 465 00:19:49,430 --> 00:19:47,280 the building was collapsing 466 00:19:52,470 --> 00:19:49,440 he rushed outside fully expecting the 467 00:19:54,870 --> 00:19:52,480 building to begin crumbling around him 468 00:19:57,669 --> 00:19:54,880 however as he stepped outside he 469 00:19:59,909 --> 00:19:57,679 witnessed a large disc shaped object 470 00:20:01,990 --> 00:19:59,919 with what appeared to be legs protruding 471 00:20:04,789 --> 00:20:02,000 from the underside resting on the 472 00:20:07,830 --> 00:20:04,799 surface of the playground 473 00:20:10,070 --> 00:20:07,840 he stood rooted to the spot and watched 474 00:20:11,830 --> 00:20:10,080 the object as the lights began to flash 475 00:20:13,909 --> 00:20:11,840 red and yellow 476 00:20:15,750 --> 00:20:13,919 he continued to watch for what seemed 477 00:20:18,070 --> 00:20:15,760 like only a few moments before it 478 00:20:21,990 --> 00:20:18,080 suddenly rose off the ground and took 479 00:20:24,149 --> 00:20:22,000 off into the air with tremendous speed 480 00:20:28,230 --> 00:20:24,159 when the young boy checked the time it 481 00:20:29,990 --> 00:20:28,240 was almost 7 45 am meaning over an hour 482 00:20:32,630 --> 00:20:30,000 had passed 483 00:20:35,270 --> 00:20:32,640 unbeknownst to indica at the time was 484 00:20:37,350 --> 00:20:35,280 that another student at the school also 485 00:20:41,190 --> 00:20:37,360 witnessed the bizarre landing 486 00:20:43,590 --> 00:20:41,200 ten-year-old harsha ella walla jadara 487 00:20:46,070 --> 00:20:43,600 as he was a senior student it was 488 00:20:48,070 --> 00:20:46,080 harsha's responsibility to unlock all of 489 00:20:49,270 --> 00:20:48,080 the classrooms before the school day 490 00:20:51,270 --> 00:20:49,280 started 491 00:20:53,590 --> 00:20:51,280 it was as he was doing this that he 492 00:20:55,350 --> 00:20:53,600 heard the same sudden loud noise that 493 00:20:57,190 --> 00:20:55,360 endica had heard 494 00:20:59,430 --> 00:20:57,200 he turned around and looked out of the 495 00:21:00,630 --> 00:20:59,440 classroom window which overlooked the 496 00:21:03,270 --> 00:21:00,640 playground 497 00:21:05,990 --> 00:21:03,280 there resting on three legs was the 498 00:21:07,430 --> 00:21:06,000 disc-shaped object flashing red and 499 00:21:10,070 --> 00:21:07,440 yellow 500 00:21:12,470 --> 00:21:10,080 you would recall how only a second later 501 00:21:14,789 --> 00:21:12,480 it took off into the sky 502 00:21:17,669 --> 00:21:14,799 it climbed higher and floated off over 503 00:21:19,430 --> 00:21:17,679 the mountains he would further recall to 504 00:21:21,990 --> 00:21:19,440 the newspaper reporters that it was 505 00:21:22,950 --> 00:21:22,000 around eight feet across and seven feet 506 00:21:25,590 --> 00:21:22,960 high 507 00:21:27,830 --> 00:21:25,600 what's more despite a soft buzzing sound 508 00:21:30,470 --> 00:21:27,840 when it left the ground the vehicle 509 00:21:32,950 --> 00:21:30,480 didn't make a single noise 510 00:21:34,870 --> 00:21:32,960 unfortunately due to the lack of adults 511 00:21:36,710 --> 00:21:34,880 at the scene at the time many of the 512 00:21:38,950 --> 00:21:36,720 imprints that had been left in the sandy 513 00:21:41,110 --> 00:21:38,960 playground had been smeared by people 514 00:21:43,669 --> 00:21:41,120 walking over them 515 00:21:45,750 --> 00:21:43,679 even more extraordinary the witnesses 516 00:21:48,390 --> 00:21:45,760 claim that these kinds of objects are 517 00:21:51,110 --> 00:21:48,400 often seen flying overhead 518 00:21:53,350 --> 00:21:51,120 in fact later that evening another 519 00:21:54,230 --> 00:21:53,360 sighting occurred at another nearby 520 00:21:56,070 --> 00:21:54,240 school 521 00:22:01,830 --> 00:21:56,080 and it would come to be known as the 522 00:22:06,630 --> 00:22:04,470 do you like stories of the strange the 523 00:22:09,510 --> 00:22:06,640 weird and the unexplained then we want 524 00:22:12,230 --> 00:22:09,520 you to check out jim harold's campfire 525 00:22:14,950 --> 00:22:12,240 the concept is pretty simple jim talks 526 00:22:17,110 --> 00:22:14,960 to regular people about strange stuff 527 00:22:20,789 --> 00:22:17,120 that happens to them and yes that 528 00:22:23,350 --> 00:22:20,799 includes ufos along with cryptids ghosts 529 00:22:26,470 --> 00:22:23,360 and head scratchers he doesn't 530 00:22:28,549 --> 00:22:26,480 exaggerate or play a lot of spooky music 531 00:22:31,430 --> 00:22:28,559 kinda like i'm doing right now the 532 00:22:34,149 --> 00:22:31,440 stories speak for themselves one's like 533 00:22:36,789 --> 00:22:34,159 a ghost story involving serial killer 534 00:22:40,149 --> 00:22:36,799 ted bundy or the young man who 535 00:22:42,630 --> 00:22:40,159 encountered an eight-legged demon then 536 00:22:45,430 --> 00:22:42,640 there's the story of an alien abduction 537 00:22:48,310 --> 00:22:45,440 by what could be considered a reptilian 538 00:22:50,630 --> 00:22:48,320 now not all the stories are horrifying 539 00:22:53,590 --> 00:22:50,640 some are actually pretty heartwarming 540 00:22:55,909 --> 00:22:53,600 like a visit from a past loved one or a 541 00:22:58,789 --> 00:22:55,919 peaceful near-death experience 542 00:23:01,830 --> 00:22:58,799 regardless these are true and 543 00:23:03,830 --> 00:23:01,840 fascinating stories told by ordinary 544 00:23:05,510 --> 00:23:03,840 people who've had extraordinary 545 00:23:08,070 --> 00:23:05,520 experiences 546 00:23:11,590 --> 00:23:08,080 tune in to jim harold's campfire on 547 00:23:13,909 --> 00:23:11,600 apple podcasts spotify or wherever you 548 00:23:15,190 --> 00:23:13,919 listen to somewhere in the skies 549 00:23:18,950 --> 00:23:15,200 and remember 550 00:23:26,149 --> 00:23:22,710 at 7 45 pm around 12 hours after the ufo 551 00:23:28,070 --> 00:23:26,159 landed at the other primary school a 16 552 00:23:31,190 --> 00:23:28,080 year old student from saint thomas 553 00:23:32,710 --> 00:23:31,200 college sheeran de silva was walking 554 00:23:33,990 --> 00:23:32,720 home after having visited his 555 00:23:35,750 --> 00:23:34,000 grandmother 556 00:23:38,390 --> 00:23:35,760 as he walked near the saint joseph's 557 00:23:40,549 --> 00:23:38,400 grounds he noticed a strange column of 558 00:23:42,870 --> 00:23:40,559 bright light that appeared to reach the 559 00:23:45,350 --> 00:23:42,880 ground from the sky 560 00:23:48,870 --> 00:23:45,360 he looked up and saw the unmistakable 561 00:23:51,430 --> 00:23:48,880 shape of a disc shaped object overhead 562 00:23:54,390 --> 00:23:51,440 before he could move a bright red yellow 563 00:23:55,909 --> 00:23:54,400 light emerged from the craft and hit his 564 00:23:58,149 --> 00:23:55,919 body 565 00:23:59,909 --> 00:23:58,159 although it didn't cause any injury the 566 00:24:02,630 --> 00:23:59,919 episode was enough to make the student 567 00:24:04,789 --> 00:24:02,640 turn and run as fast as he could 568 00:24:07,909 --> 00:24:04,799 he would later state that he knew 569 00:24:10,230 --> 00:24:07,919 instantly that it was a spaceship 570 00:24:13,830 --> 00:24:10,240 there were though even more witnesses to 571 00:24:17,350 --> 00:24:13,840 these strange events of april 1998. 572 00:24:20,549 --> 00:24:17,360 a short time later dr rama shandran from 573 00:24:22,149 --> 00:24:20,559 the bandara wayla district hospital also 574 00:24:24,310 --> 00:24:22,159 witnessed something strange while 575 00:24:26,310 --> 00:24:24,320 driving home from work 576 00:24:28,230 --> 00:24:26,320 as he happened to look at the sky he 577 00:24:29,590 --> 00:24:28,240 witnessed a strange light heading 578 00:24:31,590 --> 00:24:29,600 skyward 579 00:24:33,830 --> 00:24:31,600 at first he believed it was merely a 580 00:24:36,310 --> 00:24:33,840 flare from a nearby camp 581 00:24:38,070 --> 00:24:36,320 however as he continued on his journey 582 00:24:39,909 --> 00:24:38,080 he eventually discovered that the light 583 00:24:43,110 --> 00:24:39,919 appeared to be coming from a lonely 584 00:24:45,590 --> 00:24:43,120 field near the amo quarters 585 00:24:47,590 --> 00:24:45,600 dr ramachandran would later claim that 586 00:24:50,630 --> 00:24:47,600 the light was strange because it went 587 00:24:52,630 --> 00:24:50,640 straight into the sky like a laser beam 588 00:24:55,029 --> 00:24:52,640 he and his wife who also saw the 589 00:24:57,750 --> 00:24:55,039 incident would describe the light as a 590 00:24:58,870 --> 00:24:57,760 definite red yellow color and like a 591 00:25:01,830 --> 00:24:58,880 beam 592 00:25:05,830 --> 00:25:01,840 one of dr ramachandran's colleagues dr 593 00:25:07,750 --> 00:25:05,840 kamani pushpa kumara of the diatelawa 594 00:25:10,470 --> 00:25:07,760 hospital had witnessed an almost 595 00:25:12,549 --> 00:25:10,480 identical display several weeks earlier 596 00:25:16,230 --> 00:25:12,559 as she watched the stars with her three 597 00:25:19,110 --> 00:25:16,240 children as they looked up a disc-shaped 598 00:25:21,750 --> 00:25:19,120 object flew overhead with flashing red 599 00:25:24,149 --> 00:25:21,760 yellow and green lights although she 600 00:25:26,789 --> 00:25:24,159 wasn't sure of what they'd seen she was 601 00:25:29,510 --> 00:25:26,799 certain it wasn't a helicopter or a 602 00:25:32,630 --> 00:25:29,520 plane adding that this was different and 603 00:25:34,630 --> 00:25:32,640 unlike anything she'd seen before 604 00:25:37,430 --> 00:25:34,640 although local police were aware of the 605 00:25:40,230 --> 00:25:37,440 sightings they were unable to explain 606 00:25:43,350 --> 00:25:40,240 what they were and these cases remained 607 00:25:50,230 --> 00:25:46,549 on june 8th 2002 a wave of sightings 608 00:25:52,070 --> 00:25:50,240 occurred over polanowara in sri lanka 609 00:25:55,029 --> 00:25:52,080 these sightings were investigated and 610 00:25:57,430 --> 00:25:55,039 well documented by the sri lankan ufo 611 00:26:00,230 --> 00:25:57,440 research association 612 00:26:02,789 --> 00:26:00,240 their files state that over 100 people 613 00:26:04,390 --> 00:26:02,799 reported seeing strange objects flying 614 00:26:06,230 --> 00:26:04,400 overhead 615 00:26:09,110 --> 00:26:06,240 what's more many of these sightings 616 00:26:11,269 --> 00:26:09,120 contained almost identical details in 617 00:26:14,950 --> 00:26:11,279 terms of the general description of the 618 00:26:17,190 --> 00:26:14,960 vehicle itself as well as how they moved 619 00:26:19,830 --> 00:26:17,200 many of the reports stated that strange 620 00:26:22,070 --> 00:26:19,840 craft were glowing spherical objects 621 00:26:25,909 --> 00:26:22,080 that simply hovered in the sky before 622 00:26:27,909 --> 00:26:25,919 disappearing with lightning speed 623 00:26:29,990 --> 00:26:27,919 on many occasions several of these 624 00:26:33,029 --> 00:26:30,000 glowing orbs were seen together in 625 00:26:36,390 --> 00:26:33,039 clusters and they often emitted colored 626 00:26:39,029 --> 00:26:36,400 lights that sometimes reach the ground 627 00:26:41,590 --> 00:26:39,039 a further flurry of ufo sightings was 628 00:26:43,510 --> 00:26:41,600 reported the following month in july 629 00:26:46,710 --> 00:26:43,520 according to an article in the july 4 630 00:26:49,269 --> 00:26:46,720 2002 edition of the daily news of sri 631 00:26:51,590 --> 00:26:49,279 lanka and many of the details of these 632 00:26:52,789 --> 00:26:51,600 sightings were remarkably similar to 633 00:26:54,870 --> 00:26:52,799 each other 634 00:26:57,190 --> 00:26:54,880 one particular witness who wished to 635 00:27:00,230 --> 00:26:57,200 remain anonymous claimed that more than 636 00:27:02,230 --> 00:27:00,240 100 villagers witnessed at least one of 637 00:27:05,830 --> 00:27:02,240 the sightings while he was camping near 638 00:27:07,909 --> 00:27:05,840 the parakrama sumutra on the evening of 639 00:27:10,310 --> 00:27:07,919 june 15th 640 00:27:12,789 --> 00:27:10,320 on the night in question at around 11 30 641 00:27:15,510 --> 00:27:12,799 pm he and many others witnessed a blue 642 00:27:17,830 --> 00:27:15,520 white light beam that was unlike any 643 00:27:20,389 --> 00:27:17,840 light they'd seen before 644 00:27:22,710 --> 00:27:20,399 this beam according to the witness would 645 00:27:24,710 --> 00:27:22,720 rotate before disappearing and then 646 00:27:27,110 --> 00:27:24,720 reappear moments later in a different 647 00:27:29,269 --> 00:27:27,120 location in the sky 648 00:27:31,190 --> 00:27:29,279 the witness would continue to report 649 00:27:33,190 --> 00:27:31,200 that the light beams appeared to emanate 650 00:27:35,590 --> 00:27:33,200 from the dense jungle that surrounded 651 00:27:37,350 --> 00:27:35,600 the area where they were camping 652 00:27:40,470 --> 00:27:37,360 according to a report one of the 653 00:27:42,470 --> 00:27:40,480 witnesses an advanced level student was 654 00:27:44,789 --> 00:27:42,480 familiar with these strange glowing 655 00:27:47,190 --> 00:27:44,799 objects he would claim that when they 656 00:27:48,870 --> 00:27:47,200 moved through the sky they did so with 657 00:27:50,950 --> 00:27:48,880 high velocity 658 00:27:54,310 --> 00:27:50,960 however when they chose to fly at a 659 00:27:55,590 --> 00:27:54,320 lower altitude a faint hum or buzz could 660 00:27:57,830 --> 00:27:55,600 be heard 661 00:27:59,430 --> 00:27:57,840 they could also change direction in a 662 00:28:01,590 --> 00:27:59,440 split second 663 00:28:04,230 --> 00:28:01,600 the objects were witnessed for several 664 00:28:08,549 --> 00:28:04,240 consecutive days before stopping as 665 00:28:14,310 --> 00:28:10,950 to the north of india lies pakistan in 666 00:28:16,470 --> 00:28:14,320 october of 1988 around 7 pm a local 667 00:28:18,789 --> 00:28:16,480 resident was flying his model airplane 668 00:28:20,070 --> 00:28:18,799 from a field in karachi along with a 669 00:28:22,310 --> 00:28:20,080 friend 670 00:28:24,389 --> 00:28:22,320 although the sky was beginning to darken 671 00:28:25,510 --> 00:28:24,399 slightly the sun was still visible in 672 00:28:27,669 --> 00:28:25,520 the sky 673 00:28:29,590 --> 00:28:27,679 as they were watching one of their model 674 00:28:31,750 --> 00:28:29,600 airplanes one of the witnesses noticed 675 00:28:34,230 --> 00:28:31,760 something in front of the plane pass by 676 00:28:36,389 --> 00:28:34,240 that briefly reflected the sun 677 00:28:38,789 --> 00:28:36,399 they focused on the object and realized 678 00:28:40,789 --> 00:28:38,799 that it was a distinct boomerang shape 679 00:28:43,830 --> 00:28:40,799 with a white color to it 680 00:28:45,029 --> 00:28:43,840 what's more it appeared to be spinning 681 00:28:48,389 --> 00:28:45,039 he would estimate that it was 682 00:28:50,870 --> 00:28:48,399 approximately the size of a boeing 737 683 00:28:53,350 --> 00:28:50,880 airplane and didn't appear to be moving 684 00:28:55,830 --> 00:28:53,360 particularly fast before the witnesses 685 00:28:59,269 --> 00:28:55,840 could truly focus on it any further it 686 00:29:01,909 --> 00:28:59,279 disappeared out of sight 687 00:29:04,310 --> 00:29:01,919 it is perhaps also worth mentioning that 688 00:29:06,870 --> 00:29:04,320 several sightings were reported in 689 00:29:09,190 --> 00:29:06,880 thailand as well around the same time 690 00:29:11,269 --> 00:29:09,200 which lies across the bay of bengal to 691 00:29:14,470 --> 00:29:11,279 the east of india 692 00:29:17,269 --> 00:29:14,480 for example in late november of 1968 at 693 00:29:18,950 --> 00:29:17,279 the royal thai air force base the ground 694 00:29:21,269 --> 00:29:18,960 control approach reported two 695 00:29:23,830 --> 00:29:21,279 unidentified objects that were moving 696 00:29:25,750 --> 00:29:23,840 slowly at a low altitude 697 00:29:28,070 --> 00:29:25,760 they continued to track them until they 698 00:29:32,630 --> 00:29:28,080 were within several miles to the base 699 00:29:37,669 --> 00:29:35,430 returning back to india and rewinding 700 00:29:40,470 --> 00:29:37,679 quite a bit let's dig into the ancient 701 00:29:44,149 --> 00:29:40,480 texts that boasted incident of advanced 702 00:29:46,389 --> 00:29:44,159 flying machines or vimanas 703 00:29:48,789 --> 00:29:46,399 not only do these ancient texts speak of 704 00:29:50,470 --> 00:29:48,799 vehicles that could traverse the earth 705 00:29:52,950 --> 00:29:50,480 but they also mentioned vehicles that 706 00:29:55,110 --> 00:29:52,960 could venture into the far reaches of 707 00:29:58,070 --> 00:29:55,120 outer space 708 00:30:00,310 --> 00:29:58,080 some even speak of gods taking humans on 709 00:30:03,430 --> 00:30:00,320 board these spaceships and visiting 710 00:30:05,990 --> 00:30:03,440 other planets this advanced knowledge 711 00:30:09,990 --> 00:30:06,000 though spread much further than just 712 00:30:12,149 --> 00:30:10,000 aerial vehicles the sanskrit texts are 713 00:30:14,789 --> 00:30:12,159 full of detailed writings not only on 714 00:30:17,430 --> 00:30:14,799 technological flying vehicles but 715 00:30:19,750 --> 00:30:17,440 advanced building designs in highly 716 00:30:22,149 --> 00:30:19,760 advanced medical procedures 717 00:30:25,269 --> 00:30:22,159 for example according to researcher 718 00:30:28,549 --> 00:30:25,279 praveen mahan advanced medical knowledge 719 00:30:31,350 --> 00:30:28,559 is contained in sanskrit texts known as 720 00:30:33,590 --> 00:30:31,360 sasrata samhita which was recorded 721 00:30:37,350 --> 00:30:33,600 around a hundred years before similar 722 00:30:39,830 --> 00:30:37,360 writings of hippocrates regarded as the 723 00:30:42,230 --> 00:30:39,840 father of modern medicine 724 00:30:45,510 --> 00:30:42,240 what's more although these texts were 725 00:30:48,830 --> 00:30:45,520 only recorded around 800 bc they had 726 00:30:51,669 --> 00:30:48,840 been passed on orally for thousands of 727 00:30:54,230 --> 00:30:51,679 years much can also be said for many of 728 00:30:57,430 --> 00:30:54,240 the ancient buildings in india 729 00:30:59,669 --> 00:30:57,440 perhaps not least the temple in sirpor 730 00:31:02,310 --> 00:30:59,679 that was recently discovered largely 731 00:31:03,830 --> 00:31:02,320 intact after being buried in the debris 732 00:31:06,950 --> 00:31:03,840 of the surrounding city from an 733 00:31:08,950 --> 00:31:06,960 earthquake in the 11th century 734 00:31:12,230 --> 00:31:08,960 the one-time superintendent of the 735 00:31:15,110 --> 00:31:12,240 archaeological survey of india dr arun 736 00:31:18,149 --> 00:31:15,120 sharma claimed the building is a perfect 737 00:31:21,669 --> 00:31:18,159 example of vedic architecture which used 738 00:31:24,029 --> 00:31:21,679 heavy stones sealed with aerovedic paste 739 00:31:27,509 --> 00:31:24,039 said to be so strong it lasts for over 740 00:31:28,950 --> 00:31:27,519 1500 years compared to only 70 years for 741 00:31:31,110 --> 00:31:28,960 cement 742 00:31:33,509 --> 00:31:31,120 what's more the building was built with 743 00:31:35,590 --> 00:31:33,519 specially designed vertical shafts or 744 00:31:37,990 --> 00:31:35,600 chambers that led straight down and 745 00:31:40,310 --> 00:31:38,000 helped assist against damage from 746 00:31:42,470 --> 00:31:40,320 earthquakes 747 00:31:44,710 --> 00:31:42,480 this not only shows that they were aware 748 00:31:47,269 --> 00:31:44,720 of the possibility of such a natural but 749 00:31:50,230 --> 00:31:47,279 devastating event but they had also 750 00:31:52,070 --> 00:31:50,240 learned to overcome it 751 00:31:54,310 --> 00:31:52,080 if we return to the notion of flying 752 00:31:56,950 --> 00:31:54,320 vehicles in ancient india it's worth 753 00:31:59,269 --> 00:31:56,960 noting the lecture and submitted paper 754 00:32:03,509 --> 00:31:59,279 of a principal at a pilot training 755 00:32:05,990 --> 00:32:03,519 school anand bodus who at the 2015 756 00:32:09,029 --> 00:32:06,000 indian science congress claimed that 757 00:32:11,029 --> 00:32:09,039 ancient indian texts provided blueprints 758 00:32:13,909 --> 00:32:11,039 for flying machines that could be built 759 00:32:16,549 --> 00:32:13,919 and flown today just as they had been in 760 00:32:18,950 --> 00:32:16,559 the ancient world 761 00:32:21,909 --> 00:32:18,960 it is worth noting the experiments of 762 00:32:24,789 --> 00:32:21,919 aerospace engineer travis taylor who 763 00:32:27,669 --> 00:32:24,799 would use a 3d print of a model designed 764 00:32:29,789 --> 00:32:27,679 from instructions in such ancient texts 765 00:32:32,470 --> 00:32:29,799 to prove that it was in fact 766 00:32:34,549 --> 00:32:32,480 aerodynamically sound 767 00:32:37,110 --> 00:32:34,559 what's also interesting is a paper 768 00:32:39,110 --> 00:32:37,120 around the same time as bodacious claims 769 00:32:43,110 --> 00:32:39,120 of an ancient flying machine in the 770 00:32:45,590 --> 00:32:43,120 volume 4 issue 3 2014 paper by the 771 00:32:49,269 --> 00:32:45,600 international journal of engineering and 772 00:32:51,110 --> 00:32:49,279 innovative technology titled vedic eon 773 00:32:56,149 --> 00:32:51,120 engine 774 00:32:58,389 --> 00:32:56,159 ultimately reported that the vimenika 775 00:33:00,549 --> 00:32:58,399 shastra describes in detail the 776 00:33:03,830 --> 00:33:00,559 construction of what is called the 777 00:33:07,590 --> 00:33:03,840 mercury vortex engine the forerunner of 778 00:33:09,990 --> 00:33:07,600 the ion engines being made by nasa 779 00:33:12,789 --> 00:33:10,000 furthermore nasa has since used ion 780 00:33:15,830 --> 00:33:12,799 engines in space in the years since the 781 00:33:18,389 --> 00:33:15,840 paper was published 782 00:33:20,710 --> 00:33:18,399 the more we study the sanskrit texts the 783 00:33:22,070 --> 00:33:20,720 more intriguing and eye-opening they 784 00:33:24,230 --> 00:33:22,080 become 785 00:33:26,710 --> 00:33:24,240 however unlike many other parts of the 786 00:33:29,190 --> 00:33:26,720 world the ancient writings and texts 787 00:33:32,710 --> 00:33:29,200 that speak of these flying machines and 788 00:33:34,310 --> 00:33:32,720 advanced beings or gods are seemingly 789 00:33:36,230 --> 00:33:34,320 written as fact 790 00:33:37,909 --> 00:33:36,240 and for the most part have been well 791 00:33:39,590 --> 00:33:37,919 preserved and remained in the 792 00:33:42,630 --> 00:33:39,600 consciousness of the indigenous 793 00:33:45,110 --> 00:33:42,640 population in india 794 00:33:47,110 --> 00:33:45,120 if we're looking to find absolute proof 795 00:33:49,590 --> 00:33:47,120 of an extraterrestrial presence on earth 796 00:33:52,710 --> 00:33:49,600 thousands of years ago or at the very 797 00:33:55,430 --> 00:33:52,720 least a civilization so advanced it had 798 00:33:57,990 --> 00:33:55,440 flying vehicles some of which could 799 00:34:00,789 --> 00:33:58,000 reach other planets there might be no 800 00:34:03,990 --> 00:34:00,799 better place to find it than in these 801 00:34:05,750 --> 00:34:04,000 ancient sanskrit texts 802 00:34:08,310 --> 00:34:05,760 when we factor in some of the apparent 803 00:34:11,109 --> 00:34:08,320 underwater ruins in the region then the 804 00:34:13,190 --> 00:34:11,119 idea of advanced civilization possibly 805 00:34:14,710 --> 00:34:13,200 with advanced technology existing in 806 00:34:18,629 --> 00:34:14,720 this part of the world thousands of 807 00:34:20,550 --> 00:34:18,639 years ago grows even more curious 808 00:34:23,990 --> 00:34:20,560 and we might also consider the vast 809 00:34:26,470 --> 00:34:24,000 indian ocean to the south of the region 810 00:34:29,190 --> 00:34:26,480 an ocean that could easily allow for 811 00:34:32,470 --> 00:34:29,200 discrete movement or maybe even more 812 00:34:37,349 --> 00:34:32,480 extraordinary a place for these vehicles 813 00:34:42,550 --> 00:34:39,430 looking towards the future of ufo 814 00:34:44,710 --> 00:34:42,560 studies there is almost no argument that 815 00:34:47,030 --> 00:34:44,720 can be made that the united states has 816 00:34:48,950 --> 00:34:47,040 had a major influence on how this topic 817 00:34:51,829 --> 00:34:48,960 is being handled 818 00:34:53,430 --> 00:34:51,839 after a firestorm of revelations 819 00:34:56,149 --> 00:34:53,440 stretching back to the now famous new 820 00:34:58,390 --> 00:34:56,159 york times article of 2017 821 00:35:00,230 --> 00:34:58,400 up to the current landscape of a newly 822 00:35:03,430 --> 00:35:00,240 formed group within the pentagon to 823 00:35:05,430 --> 00:35:03,440 study ufo and uap reports 824 00:35:07,030 --> 00:35:05,440 other countries have begun to follow 825 00:35:10,150 --> 00:35:07,040 suit 826 00:35:13,190 --> 00:35:10,160 china has boasted an ai program to 827 00:35:14,710 --> 00:35:13,200 capture collect and categorize ufo 828 00:35:17,670 --> 00:35:14,720 sightings 829 00:35:20,150 --> 00:35:17,680 japan's defense minister has requested 830 00:35:21,750 --> 00:35:20,160 the self-defense forces follow new 831 00:35:23,829 --> 00:35:21,760 protocols regarding possible 832 00:35:26,790 --> 00:35:23,839 interactions or sightings of 833 00:35:30,390 --> 00:35:26,800 unidentified flying objects 834 00:35:32,390 --> 00:35:30,400 france has gaipen or the group for study 835 00:35:35,270 --> 00:35:32,400 and information on unidentified 836 00:35:38,470 --> 00:35:35,280 aerospace phenomena which actually runs 837 00:35:41,349 --> 00:35:38,480 through the french space agency 838 00:35:45,030 --> 00:35:41,359 all the reports of ufos in uap are 839 00:35:47,670 --> 00:35:45,040 eventually released to the public 840 00:35:51,030 --> 00:35:47,680 and it now appears that india will be 841 00:35:53,510 --> 00:35:51,040 yet another example of studying ufos in 842 00:35:55,910 --> 00:35:53,520 an official capacity 843 00:35:59,510 --> 00:35:55,920 the indian astrobiology research 844 00:36:03,349 --> 00:35:59,520 foundation has launched the iarf 845 00:36:04,990 --> 00:36:03,359 center of excellence for ufos 846 00:36:08,310 --> 00:36:05,000 here is one of the leading 847 00:36:10,829 --> 00:36:08,320 astrobiologists in india and head of the 848 00:36:13,510 --> 00:36:10,839 iarf and 849 00:36:15,190 --> 00:36:13,520 ice pushkar vadya 850 00:36:17,430 --> 00:36:15,200 speaking with indian-based news 851 00:36:20,069 --> 00:36:17,440 organization the week 852 00:36:21,670 --> 00:36:20,079 we set up this center of excellence for 853 00:36:24,069 --> 00:36:21,680 uh ufos 854 00:36:26,069 --> 00:36:24,079 if we believe it is okay you know if 855 00:36:28,470 --> 00:36:26,079 it's all right to look for aliens for 856 00:36:30,150 --> 00:36:28,480 extraterrestrial life outside of earth 857 00:36:32,470 --> 00:36:30,160 then why the hell do we have a problem 858 00:36:34,710 --> 00:36:32,480 if they are here therefore it is the 859 00:36:36,550 --> 00:36:34,720 exact search we are doing any which ways 860 00:36:38,790 --> 00:36:36,560 the problem is instead of you know we 861 00:36:40,470 --> 00:36:38,800 going and looking for them there is a 862 00:36:42,550 --> 00:36:40,480 phenomenon which is suggesting that they 863 00:36:44,310 --> 00:36:42,560 might just be right here can it be 864 00:36:46,150 --> 00:36:44,320 investigated through that way now that's 865 00:36:47,990 --> 00:36:46,160 a different story but is it a part of 866 00:36:49,670 --> 00:36:48,000 science well absolutely 867 00:36:52,230 --> 00:36:49,680 we need to look at this particular 868 00:36:54,230 --> 00:36:52,240 phenomena not as a 869 00:36:55,910 --> 00:36:54,240 not as an academic issue you know 870 00:36:58,630 --> 00:36:55,920 because it is not anymore 871 00:37:00,150 --> 00:36:58,640 uh it's an uh issue which is global and 872 00:37:01,829 --> 00:37:00,160 it's an issue which is going to affect 873 00:37:03,829 --> 00:37:01,839 the public it's going to affect you and 874 00:37:05,349 --> 00:37:03,839 me you know it has nothing to do with uh 875 00:37:06,870 --> 00:37:05,359 you know something being academic or 876 00:37:08,470 --> 00:37:06,880 research because 877 00:37:10,310 --> 00:37:08,480 they seem to be going everywhere without 878 00:37:12,790 --> 00:37:10,320 any permission so it's a 879 00:37:14,950 --> 00:37:12,800 socio-scientific issue and the public 880 00:37:17,190 --> 00:37:14,960 discourse and debate is extremely 881 00:37:19,030 --> 00:37:17,200 important the involvement that what are 882 00:37:21,430 --> 00:37:19,040 we dealing with and it has to go beyond 883 00:37:23,030 --> 00:37:21,440 this thing of you know i mean what are 884 00:37:25,270 --> 00:37:23,040 they and do we have to hear and all that 885 00:37:27,750 --> 00:37:25,280 stuff because i think it's only a social 886 00:37:29,910 --> 00:37:27,760 scientific issue so the thing is that 887 00:37:32,310 --> 00:37:29,920 who is going to speak to them you know 888 00:37:34,310 --> 00:37:32,320 and what is the cultural 889 00:37:35,829 --> 00:37:34,320 depth you require to you know handle 890 00:37:38,630 --> 00:37:35,839 these conversations 891 00:37:40,390 --> 00:37:38,640 and given the track record of how uh you 892 00:37:42,710 --> 00:37:40,400 know how the academy and research have 893 00:37:44,710 --> 00:37:42,720 been responding to it so far keeping all 894 00:37:47,270 --> 00:37:44,720 this in mind we have issued a position 895 00:37:49,030 --> 00:37:47,280 statement to send an entire manifesto 896 00:37:51,510 --> 00:37:49,040 that how we should be going about the 897 00:37:52,470 --> 00:37:51,520 research and it so happens you know and 898 00:37:58,390 --> 00:37:52,480 that 899 00:38:00,710 --> 00:37:58,400 or rooted rather you know from a very 900 00:38:02,310 --> 00:38:00,720 indian uh you know thought process 901 00:38:04,790 --> 00:38:02,320 because uh 902 00:38:06,950 --> 00:38:04,800 we are the culture is the best equipped 903 00:38:08,870 --> 00:38:06,960 you know to to handle this sort of uh 904 00:38:10,550 --> 00:38:08,880 situation you know and and there is no 905 00:38:12,630 --> 00:38:10,560 reason why you know 906 00:38:14,390 --> 00:38:12,640 we must not attend that so that's what 907 00:38:17,030 --> 00:38:14,400 we intend to do to set up a global 908 00:38:18,790 --> 00:38:17,040 agenda along with of course you know uh 909 00:38:20,230 --> 00:38:18,800 i mean you know along with all the 910 00:38:22,470 --> 00:38:20,240 scientists to to sort of you know 911 00:38:25,109 --> 00:38:22,480 discuss this out this has been you know 912 00:38:26,550 --> 00:38:25,119 happening for a long time so obviously 913 00:38:28,630 --> 00:38:26,560 you know you and i won't necessarily 914 00:38:30,230 --> 00:38:28,640 come to know you know what the the 915 00:38:31,910 --> 00:38:30,240 defense people are doing 916 00:38:33,510 --> 00:38:31,920 but what you and i can't know is that 917 00:38:35,589 --> 00:38:33,520 you know whatever they are doing it's 918 00:38:37,670 --> 00:38:35,599 not working you know because the ufos 919 00:38:40,390 --> 00:38:37,680 are doing whatever they they feel like 920 00:38:41,910 --> 00:38:40,400 we we better you know put up our hand 921 00:38:44,950 --> 00:38:41,920 and offer 922 00:38:47,910 --> 00:38:44,960 to lead this not just to contribute 923 00:38:54,230 --> 00:38:51,670 vagya's hope of the ice becoming a major 924 00:38:57,589 --> 00:38:54,240 player and even leading the ufo 925 00:38:59,670 --> 00:38:57,599 discourse is very inspiring 926 00:39:02,790 --> 00:38:59,680 and so are the more technical plans for 927 00:39:05,670 --> 00:39:02,800 the ice which consist of creating an 928 00:39:08,150 --> 00:39:05,680 authentic searchable database cataloging 929 00:39:11,430 --> 00:39:08,160 all ufo sightings reported in the indian 930 00:39:13,510 --> 00:39:11,440 media and others that were ignored 931 00:39:15,670 --> 00:39:13,520 it will also provide people a credible 932 00:39:17,829 --> 00:39:15,680 platform to submit their own ufo 933 00:39:25,030 --> 00:39:17,839 sightings which would be independently 934 00:39:29,589 --> 00:39:27,270 so while the future looks bright for the 935 00:39:32,870 --> 00:39:29,599 study of ufos in india with the work 936 00:39:35,270 --> 00:39:32,880 being done by pushkar and the ice we 937 00:39:38,550 --> 00:39:35,280 must also look back to the past for 938 00:39:40,870 --> 00:39:38,560 reference to the proliferation of ufo 939 00:39:43,109 --> 00:39:40,880 events throughout the country 940 00:39:46,230 --> 00:39:43,119 and what that might tell us about what 941 00:39:48,470 --> 00:39:46,240 we are dealing with today in modern ufo 942 00:39:50,470 --> 00:39:48,480 accounts 943 00:39:53,190 --> 00:39:50,480 let's say that if there was some sort of 944 00:39:54,390 --> 00:39:53,200 advanced civilization in india thousands 945 00:39:56,470 --> 00:39:54,400 of years ago 946 00:39:57,910 --> 00:39:56,480 one that not only had knowledge of 947 00:40:01,430 --> 00:39:57,920 advanced building techniques and 948 00:40:03,510 --> 00:40:01,440 medicines but also of aerial vehicles 949 00:40:05,670 --> 00:40:03,520 that could even venture into space and 950 00:40:07,829 --> 00:40:05,680 the great beyond 951 00:40:10,230 --> 00:40:07,839 do they share a connection with the many 952 00:40:11,589 --> 00:40:10,240 ufo sightings that persisted in the 953 00:40:14,230 --> 00:40:11,599 modern era 954 00:40:16,870 --> 00:40:14,240 are they the same controllers of these 955 00:40:20,390 --> 00:40:16,880 aerial vehicles or phenomena that 956 00:40:22,390 --> 00:40:20,400 visited our planet in ancient times 957 00:40:24,470 --> 00:40:22,400 if there is a connection between these 958 00:40:26,950 --> 00:40:24,480 apparent advanced aerial vehicles of 959 00:40:29,670 --> 00:40:26,960 ancient india in ufo sightings in the 960 00:40:32,870 --> 00:40:29,680 modern and contemporary era what might 961 00:40:35,430 --> 00:40:32,880 that connection truly be 962 00:40:38,309 --> 00:40:35,440 did these apparent gods simply pull away 963 00:40:41,430 --> 00:40:38,319 from society as many creation legends 964 00:40:42,950 --> 00:40:41,440 state but maintain a discreet presence 965 00:40:45,910 --> 00:40:42,960 here on earth 966 00:40:49,589 --> 00:40:45,920 or are they indeed visiting us from afar 967 00:40:51,750 --> 00:40:49,599 observing humanity's progress or perhaps 968 00:40:54,230 --> 00:40:51,760 if we accept the modern ufo sightings 969 00:40:56,710 --> 00:40:54,240 here are the result of extraterrestrial 970 00:40:59,990 --> 00:40:56,720 visitation might these more recent 971 00:41:02,309 --> 00:41:00,000 cosmic visitors be an entirely different 972 00:41:04,309 --> 00:41:02,319 intelligence with different motives 973 00:41:07,510 --> 00:41:04,319 altogether 974 00:41:09,349 --> 00:41:07,520 there are many possibilities and few 975 00:41:14,870 --> 00:41:09,359 answers 976
