1 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:12,640 Among the more credible of eyewitnesses to the UFO phenomena are pilots. 2 00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:17,840 Indeed, it is a little known fact, but over three and a half thousand military and civilian 3 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:23,080 pilots have stepped forward over the years to officially report something so unique, 4 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:28,040 so different to what they are normally accustomed to seeing, that they have labelled it as a 5 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,040 UFO. 6 00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:34,720 It's rare for pilots to talk publicly about such encounters, least of all in front of 7 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:41,540 a camera held by UFO researchers, but veteran civilian pilot David Hastings had no such 8 00:02:41,540 --> 00:02:43,540 quans. 9 00:02:43,540 --> 00:02:48,680 We'd been to the Second Air Division at a convention in McAfee in New York, so we 10 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,880 were slowly making our way back at a nice easy pace. 11 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:58,080 We decided we wouldn't fly at night, so I'd landed at Dayton for my first night stop and 12 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,680 then at Albuquerque on the second night. 13 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,920 Our Grand Canyon really happened as a piece of luck because I was talking to the American 14 00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:10,160 girl in air traffic at Albuquerque and she heard my English accent and she said, oh, 15 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,600 I suppose you want to fly the canyon. 16 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,520 And I said, well, yes, I would like to do that. 17 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:21,600 So she advised us then that I should fly the canyon first and then land at Grand Canyon 18 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,560 for fuel because if I went the other way around and landed at Grand Canyon and asked 19 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,960 the fly the canyon, I would possibly be told no. 20 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:34,000 So yes, we had a look at the Grand Canyon itself. 21 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,000 But the incident happened. 22 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,160 I'd refueled at Grand Canyon Airport. 23 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:44,280 I was just back up to my assigned height of 10,500 feet on the airway on Victor 12. 24 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:51,040 And we'd passed over Lake Mead and I suppose we were about 70, 80 miles short of the Mojave 25 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,760 Desert when it happened. 26 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,040 It began, of course. 27 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,720 We both realized that there was something coming in our 12 o'clock at us at high speed, 28 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:04,240 very high speed, which at that part of the world, you're not used to them coming exactly 29 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:05,720 head on. 30 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:13,080 But obviously, again, both of us had the experience of a military jet coming at us at a different 31 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,080 angle at speed. 32 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:19,040 So you were quite used to seeing what in one second was a tiny speck on the windshield 33 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,440 and within a second was a very large aeroplane. 34 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:28,840 We looked at it, saw the speck coming, but it came so quick when we first saw it, we 35 00:04:28,840 --> 00:04:31,640 suddenly realized it was on top of us. 36 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:32,640 So we pushed. 37 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:33,640 I pushed hard. 38 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:34,640 I was flying. 39 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:35,640 And David is my co-boy. 40 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,240 I also pushed hard. 41 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,720 And we vanished under the combing of the instrument panel. 42 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,280 We were convinced that that was it, that we were going to have a midair, that there'd 43 00:04:44,280 --> 00:04:48,680 be an almighty bang and the tail would go and that would be it and that would be the end 44 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,720 of our flying days. 45 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,760 But I mean, to say bear in mind, I was on the airway. 46 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:59,920 I was under a radar service and I had no warning of any conflicting traffic whatsoever. 47 00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:04,120 But then of course, that was when Graham, it started to get very odd. 48 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,640 It went over the top of us, a large shadow, a very black shadow. 49 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:13,200 It darkened the hull of the cockpit and the sky above us, of course, was clear blue sunshine. 50 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,600 Was there any kind of shock wave or something like that? 51 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:18,600 No. 52 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:19,600 That was the funny thing. 53 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,560 There was no sound and there was no shock wave whatsoever. 54 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,320 A little bit of turbulence, but that could have been me pushing hard anyway. 55 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:31,880 My first concern was to get back up to my sign height before something starts to ask 56 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,560 us as to what it was doing. 57 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,080 Yes, I mean, that was your instant reaction. 58 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:42,160 Our other instant reaction was, well, thank goodness, what happened? 59 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:43,560 There was no bang. 60 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,400 It's missed us. 61 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,640 So yeah, it was, I wouldn't say fear. 62 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:56,400 I mean, when it happened, we were both convinced that we were going to have a midair because 63 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,240 it came exactly at our 12 o'clock. 64 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:04,520 We slowly came back up from under the combing, I regained height and we both said, what the 65 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,440 heck was that? 66 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:14,040 But then again, the mystery deepened, I think, because we both suddenly said, there's something 67 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,400 out to port on my side of the airplane. 68 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:22,160 But we couldn't see anything and yet we both sensed that something was formating on us. 69 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:23,160 Something was moving. 70 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:28,280 It started out of the peripheral vision, but certainly it was such a strong feeling. 71 00:06:28,280 --> 00:06:31,000 Both of us were looking out my side of the airplane. 72 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,880 I think it was more than six cents. 73 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:39,520 I think we both felt that whatever was there was moving so fast that the human eye couldn't 74 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:45,280 actually register it in detail, but could register that something was definitely moving. 75 00:06:45,280 --> 00:06:50,680 We thought it was going, you had a sensation it was going up and down beside us. 76 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:57,720 But I mean, that sensation lasted so long, it was such an odd feeling and we were both 77 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:04,280 convinced about it that I said to David, as I say, you fly the airplane because I've 78 00:07:04,280 --> 00:07:08,480 got my camera, my still camera back in the back end of the airplane. 79 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:13,200 So I had time to unstrap, go back, pick up my ordinary still camera, come back, strap 80 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,840 in and we both said it's still there. 81 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:22,960 So I took one picture and then say we waited and then suddenly we both said it's there 82 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:23,960 again. 83 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:28,240 We felt or sensed or could see a movement, but we couldn't focus on it. 84 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:34,920 So I took a second picture and I suppose that whole incident must have lasted for four minutes, 85 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:35,920 I suppose. 86 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:42,080 That was one of a 36 exposure film, of which we'd slowly taken. 87 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,760 Most of the shots on that film were of the canyon, obviously. 88 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,160 It had been sightseeing shots. 89 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,680 The first one had nothing on it and it was the second picture. 90 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:58,640 I think the reason why we definitely took two was because we felt there was something 91 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,760 interesting happening, we wanted to have at least a second or a third shot, maybe I should 92 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,800 have taken three, four, five, six, but we wanted to check that there was nothing in 93 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:12,380 the cockpit like, say, an oxygen mask or anything else that was showing a reflection on that 94 00:08:12,380 --> 00:08:13,540 side window. 95 00:08:13,540 --> 00:08:18,520 And as you saw from the first picture, there is absolutely nothing that could have made 96 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,600 that shape out of a reflection. 97 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:29,280 About three days later we went to a party at the US Naval Base at Treasure Island and 98 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:36,000 I took the photographs and said there and the US Navy officer asked if he could keep 99 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,960 them for three days and I said yes as long as I can definitely have them back before 100 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:41,960 I go back to the UK. 101 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,920 What was your senior Navy officer condition? 102 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:51,120 I think he was a, I think he was a lieutenant. 103 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:58,640 So he was about middle, say middle ranking, so I've forgotten his name now. 104 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:06,400 But again after three days when we went back to Treasure Island and he produced my photographs, 105 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,160 but he just wouldn't give us anything. 106 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:13,520 It was no comment and we said well come on surely you can give us something else. 107 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,440 Say what do you actually think it was? 108 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:17,440 No comment. 109 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:23,800 I mean whether it was because he genuinely didn't know what it was or whether- 110 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,840 In which case why couldn't he tell you that? 111 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,320 Yeah, quite, quite, quite. 112 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:32,240 Later on in the evening, on that evening when we went back to pick them up we were talking 113 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:37,000 to a US Naval pilot and he was looking at the picture and of course he said well I 114 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:42,560 can tell you what the whiteness over the top is and say that is vapor caused by a rapid 115 00:09:42,560 --> 00:09:47,960 rate of climb which we could obviously understand that and we thought well yes, that could- 116 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:48,960 That makes sense. 117 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:49,960 That makes sense. 118 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,400 No, I mean I suppose to be honest it was semi-visual. 119 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:57,600 In other words it was moving at a speed where your human eye could sense movement but it 120 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:02,000 couldn't focus on it but we were lucky enough on one shot the camera actually caught it, 121 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,400 blurred but it caught it. 122 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,880 I mean it certainly was a flying object. 123 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:13,720 It was certainly was unidentified but it was definitely there and it was solid but the 124 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:19,200 rest of it remains a mystery although as pilots I suppose say one accepts that yes there are 125 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:24,600 UFOs and I think our picture proved it I think. 126 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:32,480 And on that trip back we were making a widescreen story but I mean on that picture actually 127 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:37,640 features in it but nobody has ever queried it and I think mainly because you can say 128 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:44,160 well you know I have the picture so I know what I saw, I prove what I saw, I can prove 129 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:48,560 it here is the photograph but it still remains a mystery. 130 00:10:48,560 --> 00:10:55,160 Nobody has ever explained to us as to why there was no sound, why there was no airflow 131 00:10:55,160 --> 00:11:02,200 or turbulence and why we couldn't actually focus on it, why it didn't come and hover 132 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:07,080 beside us and stay still so we could actually see it in detail. 133 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:13,480 Nobody has ever explained that to us at all although some of your pictures and the analysis 134 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,320 is intriguing I think of that photograph. 135 00:12:48,560 --> 00:13:12,360 Interestingly as a result of our publishing David's Accounting UFO Magazine a reader in 136 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:19,680 North America submitted this photograph of a UFO taken over Brazil some years before. 137 00:13:19,680 --> 00:13:26,840 Compare the two there is a striking resemblance is it just possible that the Mahavi UFO and 138 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:31,280 that photographed over Brazil may be one and the same? 139 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:38,360 If debunkers are to be believed all eyewitnesses to purported UFO activity are to be dismissed 140 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:43,320 no matter that pilots are skilled professional observers, no matter that over three and a 141 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:49,240 half thousand pilots fail to sight Venus, conventional aircraft lights seen under unusual 142 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:55,520 atmospheric conditions, space debris or other exotic causes. 143 00:13:55,520 --> 00:14:00,080 When one considers that only 10% of ordinary members of the public who think that they 144 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:05,560 have actually seen a UFO take the time and effort to report their sighting officially 145 00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:09,480 would the same percentage figure apply to professional pilots? 146 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:10,880 We think not. 147 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:16,360 Hence to accumulate over three and a half thousand official UFO and pilot encounters 148 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:22,200 a figure incidentally first reported back in 1990 should be seen for what it truly is 149 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:27,800 a staggering body of evidence that few can ignore unless of course you happen to be a 150 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,200 debunker. 151 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:36,240 It is late evening and away in the distance mysterious lights in the sky attract your 152 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:37,960 attention. 153 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:44,080 From afar they look at odds with your surroundings but as you zoom in for a closer look and the 154 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:49,120 lights steer ever closer the mystery is soon resolved. 155 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,880 Aircraft navigational lights particularly those seen from the ground and at distance can 156 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,400 often lead some into mistakenly interpreting them as a UFO. 157 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:03,640 The sky at night is often littered with aircraft and coupled with chance observations of passing 158 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:09,280 overhead satellites it is little wonder that inexperienced observers on the ground below 159 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,160 are often confused. 160 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:17,680 Skywatches however can assist in educating people to the busy environment above but what 161 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,800 should one take on a skywatch? 162 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,600 How best to prepare? 163 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:27,720 Here Russell Callaghan teams with Graham Burtzel editor of UFO magazine to provide a few handy 164 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:33,440 tips. 165 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:40,000 Skywatches can be great fun so here are some practical guidelines to get the maximum enjoyment 166 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:47,080 of what can be a pretty cold night out looking at the stars and we hope other things as well. 167 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:52,920 We are here on Otley Shevin just outside of Ilkley although we have sunlight pollution 168 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:58,480 in the area we have not travelled many miles to give ourselves a fantastic view from horizon 169 00:15:58,480 --> 00:15:59,480 to horizon. 170 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:04,640 Of course it helps for those who are not used to skywatches to know exactly where the best 171 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,640 place is to park your vehicle. 172 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:12,640 Oh and please try to avoid parking your vehicle by busy roads especially at night those country 173 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,880 lanes can be pretty hazardous. 174 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:20,200 So if you can't find a public spot to park your vehicle and you are looking at some private 175 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,440 land do get permission from the land owner or a farmer. 176 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:29,200 As long as you do that you shouldn't have too many problems the last thing you need 177 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:35,240 is a battle farmer coming along and ushering you off in the middle of the night. 178 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:41,560 Sound travels a great distance at night the last thing householders or farmers want 2-3 179 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:47,200 o'clock in the morning is to hear the sound of a car radio blaring away it can travel 180 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:48,680 for miles. 181 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,400 So please keep noise to an absolute minimum. 182 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:57,200 Another piece of safety information don't wander off at night it's important that you 183 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,860 do not do that simply because there are lots of hazards out in those fields it's pitch 184 00:17:01,860 --> 00:17:07,840 black you could fall over sprain an ankle and you've got problems. 185 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,640 There are lots of essential items that you need to bring with you on a skywatch one of 186 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:17,920 those most importantly of all especially these days is a mobile phone but when you pitch 187 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:22,560 your skywatch at least make sure that you've got a good signal it's pointless finding an 188 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:31,160 ideal spot only to discover that your mobile doesn't work. 189 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:36,000 Typical route map even an A to Z you don't have to travel many miles outside of the cities 190 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:43,000 or towns lights to get away from the pollution to find an ideal spot for a skywatch so do 191 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,880 take along a route map especially handy if you're in an area that you're not too familiar 192 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,560 with and you might get lost. 193 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:56,720 Other things to take on board well pair of binoculars 10x50 binoculars just as good and 194 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:02,520 a heck of a lot less expensive than some of the larger astronomical telescopes these I've 195 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:08,320 had for the best part of 15 years they stood me in good stead and they're ideal especially 196 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:12,160 at night. 197 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:17,760 Another piece of essential equipment a torch ideally take two torches with you if you have 198 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,840 to go wandering off especially to spend a penny take the torch with you the last thing 199 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:27,480 you want to have to happen is for that torch to go down simply because you forgot to charge 200 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:32,600 the batteries have some spare batteries handy just in case. 201 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:36,240 You're bringing along a camera keep it in a camera case especially if it starts to chuck 202 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:41,080 it down late at night. 203 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:46,800 I always like to bring along these they're night vision binoculars now they're particularly 204 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:54,240 good for looking at objects way up in the sky at distance picking out strobe lights 205 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:59,720 navigation lights from what look curious lights in the sky at first but through these you 206 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:04,280 can pick out the strobes very very easily indeed we've had helicopters police helicopters 207 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:08,560 flying over our region with the lights out obviously monitoring somebody on the ground 208 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:13,400 below but when you put the night vision scopes on them you can actually see the crew of the 209 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:18,840 helicopter reflected by their instrument panels on board through night vision they're 210 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:23,800 expensive but some of the handheld night vision sets that you can get these days are less 211 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,640 than 200 pounds. 212 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:33,360 It's always important when you go in the sky what to prepare for the elements i.e. the 213 00:19:33,360 --> 00:19:40,240 weather it can turn pretty treacherous at night tonight's not too bad temperatures hovering 214 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:46,480 around about the mid 40s but it's always nice to bring along something hot to drink 215 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:51,400 have plenty of chocolate bars especially if you're intending to stay out until the early 216 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:57,760 hours and one final piece of advice and I always recommend that youngsters do not come 217 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:06,240 along on a sky watch those round about 15 or 16 fine and that's handy but if you're here 218 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:12,320 to look at the night sky to check out the stars check out satellites check out we hope 219 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:18,000 something odd something unusual the last thing you need is to turn around and a 405 year 220 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:25,040 old or a 10 year old is no longer there to be seen so that's very very important but 221 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:31,680 wherever you go for your sky watch enjoy yourselves that's the whole point of this exercise do 222 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:38,440 take on board some of those guidelines and tips safety is absolutely paramount how many 223 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:43,160 should you take on board a sky watch with you well I always like to think that four 224 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:48,800 or five car loads of people is ample especially if you're looking at a narrow lay by where 225 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:52,920 you're hoping to pitch camp for the night if you are traveling some distance away from 226 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:59,840 home make sure that everybody is familiar with where you're going to and it always helps 227 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:05,520 just in case to let somebody back home know where you're going to as well and with that 228 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:12,080 have a great sky watch but a safe sky watch as well. 229 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:17,360 Organising the sky watch is one of those things that takes a little bit of planning as we've 230 00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:23,040 already gone over the major points to remember about privacy and getting yourself organised 231 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:27,720 all that's fine you can have all this wonderful equipment and go out there and hope to get 232 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:34,000 some remarkable footage of something extremely unusual but you need to get one or two things 233 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:40,040 happy in your mind it's like riding a bicycle if you like the equipment your camera the 234 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:44,840 camera that you're using or one of two or three cameras that you're using on a sky 235 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:52,920 watch you need to be confident with the equipment suppose the first real point is the tripod 236 00:21:52,920 --> 00:22:00,280 you don't have to spend a fortune something like this about 40-50 pounds nice sturdy legs 237 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:06,400 spirit levels on the head there that lets you make sure things are level because if you 238 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,280 get one of the legs in the wrong position it might look fine in the viewfinder whatever 239 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:14,800 you're filming but as you pull back you'll be creating hills and troughs that aren't 240 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:22,080 really there so nice and level check the bubbles firm ground and away you go. 241 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:27,600 Zooming into distant objects the tripod's an absolute must you need to be firm that 242 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:31,880 doesn't matter how steady a hand you've got when you're holding the weight of a camera 243 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:37,880 just your body's movement through simply breathing will create all sorts of shakes and wobbles 244 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:44,520 on the camera so once again stick with the tripod get it firm 20 inches from the tripod 245 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:49,000 they've all got the bit that goes up and down so get comfortable to your eye if you're 246 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:55,360 fortunate like us and you've got the little screen there well there we are me watching 247 00:22:55,360 --> 00:22:59,480 you watching him watching me sort of thing if you've got the little viewfinder then you 248 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:04,280 can see that what you're filming is what you're getting what you see on this screen is exactly 249 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:09,360 what you're going to see on the TV when you get your footage home so remember the little 250 00:23:09,360 --> 00:23:16,680 black and white viewfinder it's okay but to get the real picture this is a must one thing 251 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:23,120 to remember though the viewfinder it takes battery power out of the camera so be prepared 252 00:23:23,120 --> 00:23:28,160 with batteries if you've got a couple of batteries make sure they're fully charged know the limitations 253 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:35,440 of your camera the more you zoom the more you have auto focus switched on this all uses 254 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:39,360 power and those batteries will drain very very quickly. 255 00:23:39,360 --> 00:23:44,480 Olivia Mayan batteries are the modern standard now sort of thing and this little camera with 256 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:49,360 the smallest battery that's available for it will give you an hour reliable. 257 00:23:49,360 --> 00:23:53,840 You can buy bigger batteries I've actually got one for this particular camera that believe 258 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:59,240 it or not gives you six hours okay it costs about 80 pounds but one challenge and you 259 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:05,200 know you're going to be alright for all night with a sky watch so well worth remembering 260 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:11,720 extra batteries the other thing get to know where your controls are on your camera most 261 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:16,840 modern camcorders they're all switches and buttons at the back it's alright having tons 262 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:24,320 of little gadgets again it's knowing what these things do and get comfortable before 263 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:29,640 you actually get out there in the field know what you're doing and what each of those buttons 264 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:30,880 will do. 265 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:37,120 Another tip that I'd like to share with you that I think is a vast improvement on sort 266 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,760 of the older models of camcorder. 267 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:46,480 Auto focus we switch that off all the way manual focus use this ring you can see in the viewfinder 268 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:52,000 you can see on the on the little three inch monitor that your your image is in focus but 269 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:57,720 when you're filming distant if you've got an object in the sky quickly appears in the 270 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:05,440 sky and you think oh what do we do now don't go fumbling for the focus Sony JVC and Canon 271 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:11,280 are all fitting this little infinitive button dead easy pull the switch down and that sets 272 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:20,960 the lens at its distant setting so anything basically will be in focus. 273 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:25,920 The great achievements of modern times is I don't know whether we can pick it up in 274 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:30,520 the viewfinder we'll let you see the footage as we go along as well but something that's 275 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:37,760 come along these days in the distance there is our local pub with the flick of a switch 276 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:46,840 we have night shot but all the sudden details start coming into view that weren't there 277 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:53,760 before and we'll let you see the footage in reality during this actual piece but as you 278 00:25:53,760 --> 00:26:01,800 can see night shot what an improvement from basically nothing to being able to see almost 279 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:08,600 in darkness it's good but it does have its limitations let's not forget we might be filming 280 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:18,800 distant objects stars planetary objects whatever the night shots really a guide but in essence 281 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:22,120 it's all right if we're getting an idea of the background of the land where you are if 282 00:26:22,120 --> 00:26:26,960 you're out in the countryside in the dark it'll give you an idea where you know rising 283 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:33,400 levels are where the hills are stick with the normal lens the normal settings on the camera 284 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:40,560 the manual settings and the one that I like to keep referring people back to is exposure 285 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:47,480 that is something that you can control manually by hand it's like opening and closing the 286 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:53,840 iris on a 35 millimeter camera the wider the iris the more light the problem is on a dark 287 00:26:53,840 --> 00:27:00,400 picture on a dark night the cameras automatic settings open wide and let every bit of light 288 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:05,040 into the camera that's there that doesn't necessarily work if you take a look at this 289 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:13,280 piece of footage you can see we've been filming the movie earlier on this year the total 290 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:19,720 eclipse by turning the f stops down on the camera lens then all of a sudden the detail 291 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:25,320 of the surface of the moon becomes apparent and what a difference if we had the camera 292 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:32,600 on automatic always sees the big white ball of light in the sky just to recap get used 293 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:37,560 to where the buttons are on the camera get used to where it stops where it starts get 294 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:42,320 used to what you see in the viewfinder when the thing is running it's all right pointing 295 00:27:42,360 --> 00:27:46,880 shooting your camera at an object in the sky and thinking you've got some mouth of footage 296 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:51,360 and realizing that it's been on pause for the last two minutes make sure you're aware 297 00:27:51,360 --> 00:27:56,240 that when you know the camera is running you know the noises it makes yet a good tripod 298 00:27:56,240 --> 00:28:03,120 get it steady plenty batteries plenty tapes and the long and short of it enjoy yourself 299 00:28:03,120 --> 00:28:08,040 and good luck because you never know it might be your turn to catch something on camera next 300 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:15,280 sky watches need not necessarily take place during nighttime hours take for example this 301 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:22,000 man Peter Grant throughout most of last summer Peter used a variety of camera lenses and filters 302 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:30,400 to record the skies above his Manchester home in the north of England here are just a few 303 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:36,160 sequences gleaned from dozens of hours of footage which Peter has kindly agreed to share among 304 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:37,680 fellow UFO enthusiasts 305 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:59,520 if the mysterious objects filmed over Peter Grant's residence turned out to be some form of 306 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:05,800 covert experimental craft then that would come as no surprise to scientists and engineers who 307 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:11,240 gathered at the University of Sussex near Brighton for the advanced propulsion workshop in January 308 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:17,480 of 2001 some of the world's leading scientists in the field of electro-gravitics were present and 309 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:21,760 so were we here's just a sample of what some of them had to say 310 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:33,120 the greefits paper which I know that professor Petticoff who are you professor Petticoff it's 311 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:40,320 a my honor to know well in this in a secondary in a second paper by a professor Petticoff concerning 312 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:46,160 the greefits he states that it takes some 10 to the minus 15 of the meter to be the diabolical 313 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:53,600 in order to be effective in lifting because I read this paper by Petticoff and I was very much 314 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:59,080 impressed about it I would like to ask if there's any technique by which we could take advantage of 315 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:11,000 this electro-gravitics or electro-kinetic lifting force and so coming the burden of 10 to the minus 316 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:16,760 15 of the meter have you got any ideas how we can proceed with this which is very remarkable 317 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:29,400 probably the best way to answer this is tomorrow I will address several probably ways to try to 318 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:37,960 to make use of that intrinsic connection connection between electron and tismine gravity and you know 319 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:43,440 the classical retromagnetic mass theory revealed such a connection between electro magnetism and 320 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:50,880 inertia so in fact addressing the connection between electro magnetism and gravity or inertia 321 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:56,880 you're addressing both but I believe that tomorrow's the best idea. The cool thing is even assuming we 322 00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:06,040 have a black box or black sphere out of some black plug it you know it has to have power going in 323 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:11,520 order to convert the energy into another form of energy which is the propulsion we have to 324 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:19,440 conserve our energy loss and the cool thing is where that power going to come from what kind of 325 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:31,120 scale of power we're going to need and what kind of technology would provide it now obviously in 326 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:38,960 the early days if you get solar panels like they have on the space station and you don't want to 327 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:45,200 go too far out they say no further than Mars but that's a well tested technology and as long as the 328 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:50,600 sun shines you're going to get power and that might be doing what doable for small missions and small 329 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:58,400 payloads and small clusters in the first generation but if you want to do deep missions further you 330 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:05,160 get away from the sun power from the cells pulls off exponentially like a ski slope and almost 331 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:11,120 nothing and you're going to need some other source and obviously you are defeating the object if you 332 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:16,400 take along a huge tank of chemicals for the use of a propeller use them to generate electricity 333 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:25,600 because you're back to square one again so it has to be if not solar then nuclear because that's got 334 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:33,200 four to five magnitudes more power to weight than a chemical system so we're talking several 335 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:39,440 thousand times more energy available in the same package for the same weight and same volume that's 336 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:52,320 the whole problem then of technology being mature technology being safe being compact being reliable 337 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,960 and that's a whole new kind of world which you would want to look at anyway for conventional 338 00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:02,360 space propulsion space missions unfortunately people are spending money on that and they are 339 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:07,280 looking at it for those reasons but that technology will come across and plug in hopefully the 340 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:13,840 technology we might develop but then beyond that there's a whole new round of ideas and coming up 341 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:20,880 which is the other part of the clip coin with this conference which is zero point energy 342 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:28,720 and other unconventional energy sources possibilities of vacuum extraction of energy from the vacuum 343 00:35:28,720 --> 00:35:37,680 which Al here is an expert and related ideas it may be that Professor Vigier has a very good paper 344 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:43,040 to give on this tomorrow that as well as getting a breakthrough in our propulsion system you might 345 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:49,760 even have a breakthrough in our energy systems to power it if that happens then the consequence is 346 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:55,760 not just a space travel but for our entire society and culture they're going to be extremely profound 347 00:35:56,720 --> 00:36:01,440 and therefore for those of you who are not so interested in space travel but are interested 348 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:06,480 in the applications that spin off on it this might be the most rewarding thing in the conference 349 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:12,480 we had Einstein calculating the so-called spontaneous emission coefficient a coefficient 350 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:21,040 then a certain amount of time went by and a similar emission was known even back then 351 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:27,840 and then that eventually led to lasers and so on but spontaneous emission was still just 352 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:34,880 considered something that you were just given that was it but research in zero point energy 353 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:42,640 finally recognized spontaneous emission isn't so spontaneous it's actually a form of stimulated 354 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:49,120 emission stimulated by vacuum fluctuations so once that was recognized as you recognize 355 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:54,880 the theoretical concept then you had the idea of well it would really be great to control 356 00:36:55,760 --> 00:37:01,840 the spontaneous emission rate of excited atoms and so once it was realized that 357 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:09,040 atoms in an excited state are sort of like pencils standing on its end and some fluctuations 358 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:14,960 would not just knock it down then came the idea in the 80s that okay we'll build a cavity 359 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:21,120 we'll eliminate the modes at that transition frequency therefore we eliminate the zero point 360 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:27,120 energy in that mode therefore we put the atom in that particular cavity it'll stay excited 361 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:32,400 and it won't spontaneous so in fact that started the whole field of cavity quantum 362 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:39,440 electrodynamics and now it's used to increase spontaneous emission rates by back to the 100 363 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:48,320 so here is a case where actual practical application came by recognizing the vacuum 364 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:54,400 fluctuation theory could be used to actually control something that was well thought to be 365 00:37:54,400 --> 00:38:00,160 well understood and well known but nobody realized you can get a handle on it and so that's that's 366 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:05,600 the nice transition where the reaction comes in and permits you to deal with something you've been 367 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:12,800 dealing with for decades because you had a theoretical foundation in which you start to ask a new 368 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:19,600 question and it came up with a new answer and then your application so this is not just you know 369 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:24,560 a few decimal places I mean it's just a big factor factor behind it and also you go the other way 370 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:30,240 you can speed up uh it's fine so-called spontaneous emission line even greater 371 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:43,360 back in march this year we attended the 10th international UFO congress and film convention 372 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:47,200 staged over seven days in the casino resort of loflin, navada 373 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:52,400 almost 30 leading international researchers and best-selling authors 374 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:58,880 delivered lectures to a near capacity 1000 strong audience throughout the week congress 375 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:07,760 delegates enjoyed special functions such as the cocktail evening and the grand gala dinner at which 376 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:12,480 the eb awards are presented to some of the year's top UFO film and video productions 377 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,200 elsewhere enthusiasts and the general public alike 378 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:22,800 can often be found browsing through a wide variety of UFO and alien related merchandise 379 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:28,480 in the vendor's room it was here that we managed to grab a few words with ron russell 380 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:33,440 one of america's leading experts on crop circles and a frequent visitor to england during the 381 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:40,240 summer months we began by asking what ron thought of coin andrew's assertion much publicized last 382 00:39:40,240 --> 00:39:47,440 year that the vast majority of crop circles are nothing more than yes it's disturbing because 383 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:54,560 people have done very poor research in this area when i first started going to the crop circles 384 00:39:55,600 --> 00:40:01,840 i figured that most of them were man-made i found evidence that they were and i just went 385 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:08,400 about my business because i thought they were marvelous places i think the problem comes in 386 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:21,680 when you say a figure of a certain figure 80 20 percent that's not provable and it's just a guess 387 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:31,600 a lot of formations from my experience are man-made but they fall into different categories 388 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:39,440 there are hoaxes forget about it there's nothing happening they're made for deception but some 389 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:50,400 are spiritual machines or hermetic devices or magical temples and they are made with 390 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:59,200 higher intention not a deception so they can't be called hoaxes we have to 391 00:40:59,920 --> 00:41:06,640 as a community of researchers come up with an understanding that there are many levels 392 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:16,400 of man-made phenomena just as there are many levels of beyond human phenomena could be et 393 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:21,280 could be time travelers could be astral beings from another dimension could be 394 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:29,520 fairy spirits and elementals and i think it's all of the above some of the human made formations 395 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:41,840 have great power a power to heal people far beyond psychosomatic effect and placebo effect 396 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:52,400 the power we see in magnetometer fluctuations anomalous readings and magnetometers anomalous 397 00:41:52,400 --> 00:42:00,880 readings in uh microwave detectors anomalous readings in our trec 520 electrostatic detector 398 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:10,960 which doesn't happen in a hoax formation here's another further piece of good evidence some of 399 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:24,800 the human circle makers i've talked to uh do this for contact they like the juju that they get 400 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:32,320 in the middle of the night i have gone out with them and watched i don't make crop circles but i 401 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:43,280 watch them and while i didn't see anything that particular night they report that this indeed 402 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:53,520 is really quite a puzzling part of their of their work the magic is real it is there 403 00:42:55,200 --> 00:43:02,160 we've heard before if there's only one real one but there are many more than that and and 404 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:07,920 i'm not going to get into percentages that's really it that's where callan fell down because he 405 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:16,080 put a number on it and you can't do that you just don't know and and his um estimation 406 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:26,480 was confined really to england not not i mean we had four formations in north dakota here in america 407 00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:35,120 and minnesota and wisconsin and on and and these are in fields with no tram lines with no access 408 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:45,200 points and and photos have been taken where they're how how could that be so there is a real phenomena 409 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:55,520 but i would encourage people to not throw the baby out with the bath water even in human facilitated 410 00:43:56,080 --> 00:44:06,000 formations the magic is there contact opportunities are there balls of light and ships are seen by 411 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:14,240 people in those formations they go into a human facilitated formation and have healing and have 412 00:44:14,240 --> 00:44:23,760 epiphany and meet their guardian angel and so let's get serious here we have a great opportunity 413 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:30,960 to learn about ourselves to learn about the nature of illusion and deception at the edge of 414 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:40,880 reality or assumed reality and i think it's it's time for us to grow up embrace the whole phenomena 415 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:51,600 some are magical devices some are trashy hoaxes some come from beyond that's the way i see it 416 00:44:54,720 --> 00:45:00,720 another interesting speaker to attain congress was bruce steven holmes co-author of a new book 417 00:45:00,720 --> 00:45:08,480 entitled incident at fort benning bruce's co-author and principal character in the book john vascuez 418 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:14,720 was the subject of a filmed interview we conducted in loughlin some four years ago until then few 419 00:45:14,720 --> 00:45:21,200 had heard of john vascuez let alone his incredible story later we will show a brief segment of our 420 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:26,960 interview with john but for now let us hear bruce steven holmes describe how he first chanced upon 421 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:34,560 john and what led him to take more than a passing interest in his remarkable story and basically 422 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:41,840 the book is about a very interesting situation that occurred in september first of 1977 and it was at 423 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:48,640 fort benning georgia where john was stationed as a recruit and actually he was a volunteer he wasn't 424 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:55,520 really a recruit but i use the word recruit and when he first arrived at fort benning he was in 425 00:45:55,520 --> 00:46:02,400 formation for the welcoming speech with the captain and at the same time there were about 1300 troops 426 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:07,920 all on this formation and as they were standing there waiting for the welcoming speech what occurred 427 00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:13,600 was something really dramatic there were some lights shining and flashing down at one end 428 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:23,760 and they were in formation with alpha company first then bravo then charlie and then finally delta 429 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:30,800 john was in the delta division he looked down and they were supposed to be facing forward in their 430 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:37,840 attention but people started running and he began to watch the lights coming forward over alpha 431 00:46:38,720 --> 00:46:45,120 people were running and it was total chaos and moved up to bravo then charlie and finally the delta 432 00:46:46,240 --> 00:46:51,360 obviously what was happening was really strange john began to notice that the people who weren't 433 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:57,520 running seemed to be frozen or asleep in formation and he looked over at the captain the captain who 434 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:04,400 was about to give the speech was fast asleep and the last thing john remembers is that he must have 435 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:08,640 lost consciousness because the next thing he knows is he was looking at his feet one of the most 436 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:16,880 amazing events that i've ever heard of namely that 1300 troops were or possibly 1300 troops were 437 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:23,680 abducted on a ufo on this particular day that's the first chapter of the book the book goes through 438 00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:30,160 about two or three maybe four other major events that occurred during this two week period and 439 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:37,520 finally culminates at the end with an actual combat maneuver between the troops and a ufo 440 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:43,840 when i first met john and he told me the story my first question and i guess i wasn't really listening 441 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:49,440 to him was what did what did everybody think about after it happened well in actuality 442 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:57,040 while this event occurred in 1977 john's recollection of it started in april of 1989 443 00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:03,680 when he began having nightmares quite through some synchronicity i had a chance to speak with a 444 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:10,960 gentleman who was at fort vending in september of 1977 and said to me i have no knowledge of this 445 00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:15,840 event and i said well it was in september and he said september and he said to me said you know i 446 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:20,480 don't remember anything about september and i said well that that seems normal to me because after 447 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:26,960 all how many people can remember a particular month but as we talked he became more and more 448 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:32,960 agitated until finally we had to stop talking because he was actually becoming almost on the 449 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:39,840 verge of violence over this idea that he couldn't remember september we've spoken since and i don't 450 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:45,920 even mention fort vending and he has no recollection of the fact that we even talked about it so it's 451 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:51,200 a very strange thing i think that there are a lot of troops out there who are are having all 452 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:56,320 kinds of physical and mental problems but have not yet had that awakened experience that john had 453 00:48:56,320 --> 00:49:01,840 to read a book about one man and his extraordinary allegations quite another to see that same man 454 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:07,840 relate his story in front of the camera see what you make of john as he described some of the most 455 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:16,800 telling moments from the incident at fort vending this female voice told me to go sleep and 456 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:25,760 the next thing happened is that this face a male face i know it was a male because that's what i felt 457 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:32,080 was telling me to uh looking at zombies and the end of that came across was that the first one was 458 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:41,600 myself standing on an ocean all by myself and there was a blue sky and the next image was 459 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:48,960 the whole planet being destroyed bits by bits and the next image happened 460 00:49:50,240 --> 00:49:58,080 was a face a human face and his face was all pale white face like face 461 00:49:58,720 --> 00:50:05,280 and during this time i saw sergeant turn on who was standing across me and he was in a summer green 462 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:14,720 summer uniform cactus and uh i thought at that time i thought um he spade coffee on his 463 00:50:14,720 --> 00:50:23,360 trousers but apparently he had uh an accident and some of us started falling falling down 464 00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:28,480 and as we lost balance and i fell down too because everything seemed to have 465 00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:37,920 spitted and that was unusual and when i got up i started to walk away and uh some of the people 466 00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,520 are some of the guys who was in formation started getting sick 467 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:45,520 you started vomiting and getting sick and falling down 468 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:52,960 few of the speakers at this year's 10th international congress and film convention 469 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:59,920 commanded the respect and admiration afforded to dr roger lear in hard evidence five we included 470 00:50:59,920 --> 00:51:06,320 incredible footage of the surgical removal of an alleged alien implant by a team led by dr lear 471 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:11,280 but what new evidence we wanted to know had he brought with him to loughlin 472 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:21,440 well they've kindly given me two hours to uh present some new material as well as a review 473 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:28,800 some of the older material on the implant surgeries and uh i'm going to talk about some of the latest 474 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:36,240 findings that we have on the tim surgery which was performed at february the fifth of the year 2000 475 00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:46,320 the second hour i'm going to broach a brand new subject and offer a theory why alien abductions 476 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:55,360 are occurring worldwide and i brought the statistics and graphical material to prove that the human 477 00:51:55,360 --> 00:52:05,360 race is undergoing a tremendous biological and change it changed not only biologically but also 478 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:12,960 in our consciousness and i've done this by supporting 17 different developmental growth 479 00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:21,040 characteristics in children and uh when i present this material i think i expect the audience to 480 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:29,280 prove that my statistics that i gathered in 1987 are going to be very very conservative and what 481 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:39,440 i've done is to take a 40 year period 1947 to 1987 and i'm going to point out 17 different 482 00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:49,440 developmental characteristics that have changed dramatically in 40 years and this change far 483 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:57,520 surpasses what is possible from a normal evolutionary trend and also since i've discussed this subject 484 00:52:57,520 --> 00:53:04,000 and i've been taking notes for some years now in other countries over the world i've eliminated 485 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:14,560 the possibility of environmental factors or health factors so uh barring uh unknown changes in the 486 00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:22,160 planet or something that's unseen and evolution the only possible explanation can be that the human 487 00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:29,600 race is being genetically manipulated and we're beginning to now see the results of that so that's 488 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:38,720 what i'll be presenting in the second hour tomorrow afternoon friday at 4 30 here at the ufo congress 489 00:53:38,720 --> 00:53:45,920 lawful nevada and just to um just to focus on on a couple of specific areas we're talking about 490 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:53,840 potential genetic manipulation um through through all classes and through all you know it's not a 491 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:59,040 boundary thing we're talking about um facts and statistics believe from areas around the world 492 00:54:00,240 --> 00:54:08,080 that's the uh that's correct the uh statistics are uh taken from uh books in the united states but i've 493 00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:15,440 verified the same statistics in interviewing uh mothers fathers grandmothers grandfathers 494 00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:22,960 brothers cousins uh about the children and and everywhere from third world countries uh to 495 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:31,360 places where the life is still very primitive without the influence of television and i've 496 00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:43,200 looked into factors such as uh pollutants and the parents having being influenced with drugs or alcohol 497 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:49,120 all

00:59:54,640 brief examples 513 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:24,640 um 514 01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:54,640 um 515 01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:24,640 um 516 01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:54,640 um 517 01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:24,640 um 518 01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:52,640 m 519 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:58,640 uh 520 01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:11,640 In January of this year residents of the town of Fleetwood in the north west of England began 521 01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:18,020 observing anomalous activity over their homes. We travelled to the town to discover for ourselves 522 01:05:18,020 --> 01:05:20,040 just exactly what was going on. 523 01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:30,040 First time I saw them was on the 20th of January and we were out above that one globe there. 524 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:38,040 Four of them together and a fifth one came up and followed them enjoying them above the roof of the house. 525 01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:44,040 They just sat there and sat there and didn't move and there were these enormous orange globes. 526 01:05:44,040 --> 01:05:49,040 There was no sound, didn't make a move, it was if you just parked up and left up the keys out and cleared off. 527 01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:54,040 I just came back from the shop and I was driving round the corner there and they were just moving across. 528 01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:58,040 You couldn't miss them, they were so big they were just there in the corner of my eye. 529 01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:03,040 I thought, crikey that helicopter is low and then I realised it wasn't helicopter because the fifth light was 530 01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:09,040 independent of the other four and came up enjoying the other four and they all just sat together. 531 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:13,040 I stood for about seven or eight minutes and I walked to the middle of the road and I'm looking like this 532 01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:18,040 and there wasn't just sound, there was no noise. You could hear the street lights humming but you couldn't hear those lights humming. 533 01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:23,040 There was nothing at all. There was nothing behind the lights as if they were attached to a machine or anything. 534 01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:27,040 So I went in the house and I said to my husband, just look out the back door, we can have a look over the garden gate, 535 01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:34,040 tell me what you can see. So he came out and he's chinnied his kneecaps, he couldn't believe it and he just stood staring at them. 536 01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:41,040 Then he ran to get John, our neighbour here, and John came out and he would still sit there, hadn't moved 537 01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:46,040 and just as John went back in to get his telescope he slowly started to move away to the north. 538 01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:51,040 But we were only tree top height. Where that tree is at the back of that bungalow is how high they were 539 01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:55,040 and we still didn't ring, we didn't do anything about it because we didn't want to get laughed at. 540 01:06:55,040 --> 01:07:00,040 And then exactly five weeks and five days later it was on a Thursday, the first time was on a Saturday. 541 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:06,040 My husband was on the front here with the little boy on a two wheeler bike, he's only six, he can start but can't stop. 542 01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:11,040 My husband was running around the back of him like this and they said to be in that side of the road this time, 543 01:07:11,040 --> 01:07:19,040 we were above, these are old houses and they just came sailing in from the end of the street, right all in a line, just in a line. 544 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:28,040 I had gone flying out, looked up and saw them above here with the moon sat behind them, shot back in, grabbed my scope and... 545 01:07:28,040 --> 01:07:29,040 You remember? 546 01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:31,040 I was like, oh yeah! 547 01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:38,040 Just couldn't believe what I was seeing and then just checked all four of them were okay, there was only four at this time. 548 01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:41,040 Checked they were all four, it was alright, it was the same. 549 01:07:41,040 --> 01:07:50,040 And then sort of locked onto one and by holding my scope hard against the lamppost and getting a good solid position against it. 550 01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:56,040 So I got something really supportive and then tried to get it in my mind exactly what I'd seen. 551 01:07:56,040 --> 01:08:02,040 But a single light, not any strobing lights, not red and green for your wings, for your portans to harboured. 552 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:13,040 No strobing lights which are now your flashing white lights which you can see very very clearly for, well, 30, 40 mile away at least. 553 01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:25,040 So no, no chance, I mean, like I've said, 30 odd years of spotting all over the world, Spain, America, Germany, France, Italy, all of that. 554 01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:26,040 Weird. 555 01:08:26,040 --> 01:08:37,040 I'd say they were pretty low, I mean, getting that they were looking through the houses in the distance, going over towards Barrow Way, maybe about a thousand feet, something like that. 556 01:08:37,040 --> 01:08:41,040 Distance, no idea, I didn't get a clear picture of them at all, you know. 557 01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:43,040 Any idea about estimated speed? 558 01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:49,040 No, only that they were moving away and again, that's how I got my scope on them. 559 01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:56,040 To be really honest, I had just no idea, I mean, they could have been going slowly, they could have been going a bit quicker. 560 01:08:56,040 --> 01:09:03,040 I just don't know, but they were there for a fair bit of time, so I had to guess they were reasonable slow. 561 01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:10,040 I went and these things were just right over the top of the house and they were just unbelievable. 562 01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:14,040 I mean, we've said about aircraft and everything else, no way. 563 01:09:14,040 --> 01:09:17,040 I mean, they weren't hot air balloons or anything. 564 01:09:17,040 --> 01:09:27,040 Me very first, and I'll be honest with you, me very first instinct was hot air balloon as I first got a look through the scope at it. 565 01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:31,040 But then I started checking all five, there were five of them. 566 01:09:31,040 --> 01:09:36,040 I think there were five now, again, my memory started going. 567 01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:45,040 I checked all of them, I checked in each individual one and then I checked one in particular and they all looked the same. 568 01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:51,040 They all were like a big cylinder, a white cylinder, like a parachute type material, as you might say. 569 01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:59,040 The moon was set behind so that it was showing through this material, as you might call it. 570 01:09:59,040 --> 01:10:05,040 And then in the base was what you might call a candle light bulb. 571 01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:14,040 There was no flame or anything, it was just like a glow and it was attached to the bottom of this cylinder. 572 01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:23,040 And then it was shaped like that in four separate segments, open at the top, open at the bottom. 573 01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:28,040 So that ruled out the hot air balloon theory, straight out the window. 574 01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:32,040 And then the 23rd of March was the last time we saw them. 575 01:10:32,040 --> 01:10:39,040 And I was looking through my window because now I sit with my vertical blind set so I can see straight down the street. 576 01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:45,040 And I'm just sat like this looking out the window and it was quarter to eight, it was when the adverts were on for Coronation Street. 577 01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:57,040 And I looked out the window and I saw in the distance to the north, north-west, sorry, north, northeast, that's right, north, northeast, this orange light coming this way. 578 01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:03,040 And I said, I called my doctor and I said, just have a look at that, is it a plane or is it one of them? 579 01:11:03,040 --> 01:11:06,040 And he looked and he said, no, it's a plane, definitely. 580 01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:08,040 And I said, well, it's orange and it's not strobing. 581 01:11:08,040 --> 01:11:13,040 So I went south side and walked down the driveway and yes, it was one of them. 582 01:11:13,040 --> 01:11:16,040 And I shot back in and said, camcorder, quick, photograph, quick! 583 01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:20,040 And we both came running out at which point John next door had come out as well. 584 01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:22,040 And Brian next door but one. 585 01:11:22,040 --> 01:11:26,040 Jill the police and his wife from over the road, everybody was all out again. 586 01:11:26,040 --> 01:11:32,040 I managed to get them on camera, take photographs of them and my husband got the video and he filmed them all. 587 01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:39,040 We don't know what it was, we don't know what it was, but then they just sort of pulsated, strobe, popped and disappeared. 588 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:43,040 What do you think it might have been that you filmed? 589 01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:45,040 I'm not quite sure. 590 01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:55,040 As I said before, I'd missed the previous occasion and because they weren't quite impressive, they weren't as close as last time. 591 01:11:55,040 --> 01:12:00,040 I didn't feel that nervous and that's why I managed to keep a straight hand. 592 01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:05,040 But to tell the truth, to know what they were, I hadn't got a clue. 593 01:12:05,040 --> 01:12:13,040 I mean, we have helicopters around here, the odd one goes out because we're so close to the coast here and people get in trouble. 594 01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:20,040 So we know what helicopter sounds like, how it looks like and we get plenty of aircraft crossing over. 595 01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:29,040 But what this was was extraordinary, that's why everyone came out on the street to see what they were, 596 01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:39,040 because they were going so slowly, these big orange balls, that people had never seen them before in their life and they'd like to know what it was. 597 01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:45,040 People we've met have around here seen the lights and it's something very common. 598 01:12:46,040 --> 01:12:52,040 But it's just this little area, which is strange. 599 01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:54,040 The battery's always on charge now. 600 01:12:54,040 --> 01:13:00,040 It's definitely not helicopters, it's definitely not a mechanical plane. 601 01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:06,040 I don't know of any other kind of plane that we make down here that doesn't make a noise. 602 01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:11,040 It wasn't the work balloons because balloons can't take up formation. 603 01:13:11,040 --> 01:13:21,040 What ever it was was under some kind of control to be able to take up formation like they did and just stop in the sky and not move and then just set off again willy-nilly. 604 01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:24,040 You know, they were under some kind of control. 605 01:13:24,040 --> 01:13:31,040 It wasn't balloons, it wasn't helicopters, I don't know what it was, but what I think it was is not of this earth. 606 01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:46,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 607 01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:51,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 608 01:13:51,040 --> 01:13:56,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 609 01:13:56,040 --> 01:14:01,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 610 01:14:01,040 --> 01:14:06,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 611 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:11,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 612 01:14:11,040 --> 01:14:16,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 613 01:14:16,040 --> 01:14:21,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 614 01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:26,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 615 01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:31,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 616 01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:36,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 617 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:41,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 618 01:14:41,040 --> 01:14:46,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 619 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:51,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 620 01:14:51,040 --> 01:14:56,040 It's just this little area, which is strange. 621 01:14:56,040 --> 01:15:11,040 Music 622 01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:17,040 As we end this edition of Hard Evidence, do check out our previews of other great video titles, 623 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:21,040 now available exclusively through UFO Magazine. 624 01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:25,040 Until the next time, keep watching those skies, because rest assured, 625 01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:29,040 the truth is coming. 626 01:15:29,040 --> 01:15:39,040 Music 627 01:15:39,040 --> 01:15:43,040 There's a slow-moving object up here, Al. 628 01:15:43,040 --> 01:15:47,040 What object in the sky?
