My name is Yami and I'm from the Kripta Chat with Yami podcast.
On June 8th of 2015, I had an encounter with what I believe to be an unidentified flying object
from a far distance in our small town here of St. Cloud, Florida.
It was a normal day.
It was in the evening, and me and my family were just relaxing in our living room when my dad
pointed out that somebody had posted something strange on the county Facebook page.
Somebody had asked if other people could see this pair of lights that were in the sky.
He posted a photo of them, and soon, I don't even know how many people.
people began to post their own photos and videos of these set of lights. It was three lights in a
triangular formation. They seemed to be just kind of hovering over the local golf course,
which actually from our home was probably five minutes away. We didn't really know what to make of it.
We're a very small town. Not really a lot happens. But we just kind of followed along with the story.
And it seemed that they stayed in the area. So at that point, I reached out to a friend of mine,
who was working at our local church, that the backyard of the church basically connects to that
same golf course. And I asked, if he was still there, could he pop outside and see what people
were seeing? And he did confirm that he saw the exact same thing. At that point, me and my mom
decided, let's just go outside and see if we can see it from our driveway. So we did. And as
soon as we walked out, we turned in the direction of the golf course, there it was in the sky hovering
three lights. They were in a triangular sort of formation. They weren't really moving. There was no sound. They kind of flickered like a yellow and an orange color. Sometimes a light would disappear, but then it would come back. And just absolute silence. The night was so eerily silence. I can still remember it to this day. And we just kind of looked at each other like, is this really happening right now? Are we really watching this? And, you know, people on the Facebook page were,
throwing different explanations, you know, it's paper lanterns, oh, it's methane gas, it's something to do with, you know, the, I think it was the Avon Park Air Force Base somewhat nearby, but we still kept watching these objects in the sky. And it was just like a feeling of shock and somewhat excitement, but I couldn't explain the slight feeling of dread that I felt watching these. You know, I'd seen stories about UFOs on
TV and it's been something that had interested me in my life, but I never thought I would actually
personally see them. And the lights after about five minutes vanished. And we went back inside and we
followed the story through the Facebook page. And they were later seen in a town south of us before
they disappeared. To this day, there's no explanation about what happened here in St. Cloud,
June 8th of 2015. Many people saw it. I actually have still some of the photos from that day.
What do I think it was?
I'm not sure.
As someone who really believes in the supernatural paranormal and different things like that,
I'm very open to the possibility that it really was an unidentified flying object.
I just can't explain how something could move like that, you know, or not move,
and just make absolutely no noise.
It really stuns me to this day.
I don't think it was paper lanterns.
I've seen paper lanterns.
I don't think it was an aircraft.
We live semi-near an airport, and we know what that sounds like.
So it's definitely to this day an unknown mystery, and I still think about it from time to time,
because you never think it can happen to you until it happens to you.
Hi, my name is Peter.
I live in Arizona right now, but I'm going to be 64 in about a week.
I'm type too diabetic, so I don't know how long I would be around, but I thought it would be nice to be able to share what happened to me so many years ago.
The event took place sometime between 1971 and 1973.
Unfortunately, I didn't write down the date, the month, but I do know the exact time it occurred and the exact location.
The event took place in Las Vegas in a suburb called Paradise Valley,
which was off the Desert and Road in Pecos.
Our house was about, what, maybe about two blocks and a half,
two and a half blocks down from Desert and Road in Pecos there.
And we had a house there.
Our backyard faces Sunrise Mountain.
and
my mother
basically my mother came into my bedroom
to wake me up
and she said
Peter Peter
you got to come out and see this
hurry up hurry
and so I got up out of bed
and I looked at the clock
and the clock's at
320 a.m.
So
anyhow I go out to the backyard
and lo and behold
up in the air
I say only about
300 feet up
and they were like at the edge of our backyard like just over I'd say be it just beyond the wall but 300 feet up
not that far and um there were three of them there were three crafts
and they were in a row there were three in a row each of them had two bright headlights on the front of them
Each one had two headlights on the front of them.
They weren't that big, the crap, but anyhow, they hovered there, and they hover very still.
There were no propellers.
There was no, nothing that showed any sign of any kind of propulsion, anything to keep them up.
They hovered there like helicopters, but no propellers.
No jet engines, no nothing, because they made.
absolutely no sound at all.
No, you got to, no, they hovered there for about, I'd say a full minute.
It had have been a full minute.
And yeah, and they hovered there, the reverse still, except the one on the left, the far left,
wobbled a little bit.
It seemed to just, just like, I don't know what, you know, I just remember just wobbling a little bit.
whether it was just they were adjusting the controls or they were playing with the controls.
I don't know, but anyhow.
And so they hung there for a full minute.
And I don't know.
We have a camera and it has a flash.
One of those cheap cameras, but my father, who loves to take pictures, didn't think to get the camera.
And me, I didn't want to get the camera to take picture of them because it has a flash,
and I was afraid how they would react if they saw the flash.
flash or they sort of taken picture of them.
I didn't know how they would react.
That was a feeling that I got, I remember just,
I remember I didn't, we didn't feel,
I didn't feel threatened,
but, yeah, and they suffered there,
and I got a strong sense that they were watching us, you know,
and just no sound.
And the lights were, they were very bright.
It was very difficult to make out the shape of the craft,
although the one on the far left had wobbled.
I was able to seize part of the craft, but I wasn't able to make out the outline the exact shape,
but it was like it seemed to have been illuminated within the light itself.
There was lights coming from the front of it, you know, two headlights, but the craft itself was also illuminated somehow.
So anyway, after about the minute, they just disappeared like veniced at a thin air.
There was no sign of acceleration.
nothing, that was definitely a, that was another sign to me, at least, that they were not,
conventional aircraft.
Because like, just like that gun, the lights went out, their lights disappeared, they disappeared,
no sign of them whatsoever.
So my parents, my parents, both parents, after that, they went inside.
And I decided to stay out there because I was kind of hoping that they would come back.
And, well, guess what?
About, I don't know, two minutes later, that's how long I was out there waiting.
A, uh, I think it was two minutes, yeah, around that.
This blimp-like craft stuck with headed, was heading towards us coming from the east.
And I guess it was heading west.
And I thought it was a blimp for sure.
But the thing is, it didn't have anything on the bottom, like a cabin, you know.
It didn't have any, any thins on the back.
no propellers, no nothing, just a, it looked like a blimp, but with not, just, you know,
but what it had also was unusual were these red lights around it, around the circumference of it,
and one light would come on, one would go off, the next one would come on,
and that would go off, the next one would come on.
It gave the illusion of one single light going around the craft,
and it was going counterclockwise around the craft, and it moved slowly above,
very, it was not that far above the houses either as it traveled. It was only, I don't know, maybe
50 feet above the homes. And it was, and it just went slow and, you know, just kept going very
slow. And then that, and then that was it. And I don't know. And for years, I just was like,
was this the Air Force? Was this some prank? Was this? I mean,
But, you know, but after seeing Lou Elizando and him talking about, I think it was called The Five Observables,
when I think back, there's no way this was conventional aircraft.
There's no way it was a secret craft or whatever.
I mean, this happened back in 1970s.
I've never seen anything like that before.
And there's just no way this was any kind of secret craft.
I just doubt it.
I doubt it.
But I mean, you can make up, you know,
but when I think of the L.A.L.
is on those five deserables,
they definitely fit the criteria.
And I just feel strongly that they were definitely UFOs.
Well, anyway, yeah, I never reported it.
We didn't want to because, you know,
the people think were crazy.
And I've been tempted to call the police department,
there in Vegas to see if there were any other people who had saw them, because I can't believe
no one saw them, because this was in the suburbs at 3.20 a.m., and somebody had to have been
awake other than us, but I don't know. I'm tempted, but I'm a little like, how am I going to ask
this, you know? They're going to think I'm crazy, but I just, there was nothing in the newspaper
that anyone saw them, nothing on TV, so I don't know. Hello, my name is Sarah.
and I'm a field naturalist in Canada.
And my first and only UFO sightings so far occurred on Prince Edward Island,
which is a province in Canada in 2017.
So at the time I was living in my van and exploring Eastern Canada,
and I was camping at national parks and stuff along the way
because it was Canada's one 50th birthday or whatever.
So all the national parks were free.
So on this particular day in July, I was driving.
at night through an agricultural area on this two-lane road.
And there was nobody else around.
So it was just my van.
And I was looking for a place to stay for the night.
And suddenly I saw this large cigar-shaped object fly about 50 feet overhead.
So if you can imagine a plane flying towards you,
and it's just the wings.
So there's no center column where a pilot or passengers would be,
that's the direction that this cigar was flying.
I call it the cigar most of the time if I ever refer to it
because I don't know why, but saying UFO just seems like it's just hard for me.
I'm not sure why.
So the cigar, it had these two lights near the ends of it,
and it was sort of the width of one and a half Cessna plain wingspan.
So it wasn't super large or super, super.
tiny, but it was definitely, you know, noticeable flying overhead. I should also mention, too,
that my van doesn't have any insulation, and I was listening to a podcast at the time, so
my van was pretty loud, but there was no sound that notified me that this UFO was there,
and I only saw it when it was near to me, and then as it passed me because of the lights that were
on it. And normally, if a plane flew...
lies really close to you, it's extremely loud. Like, it's not, you wouldn't not know that I was there
if it was passing over you. Um, but once I looked in my rear and side view mirrors to kind of
confirm what I had just seen, I couldn't see it anymore. So it was nighttime and it's perfectly
reasonable that, you know, I just couldn't see it for some reason. But yeah, from my perspective,
it just sort of disappeared.
And still, to this day, I have absolutely no idea why I didn't just pull over and stop and look.
But I remember distinctly pausing my podcast and saying to myself out loud, like,
there's no way, that's not what you think.
There's no way.
There's no way.
You know, what the boop?
That kind of thing.
I just could not process what I was seeing.
It did not make any sense to my brain,
and I was having trouble accepting that I had seen what I saw.
So the next day, when I got somewhere where I could find some Wi-Fi,
I ended up searching this shape of aircraft or craft or UFO,
because at the time, the only sort of shape that I was vaguely aware of
were the classic saucers or, you know, drone-esque plane shapes. So it felt super validating to see
that I wasn't the first person to witness something like that or that looked like that.
And I also looked up if there were airfields nearby, because that would make a lot of sense
for why something was flying so low to the ground, but there was just nothing around where I was.
it was only agricultural land and, you know, small towns.
So that was interesting, I guess.
After I saw it, I remember really wanting to tell someone.
But I thought that there was no way that I could say anything without someone thinking,
oh, wow, like she's really lost her mind.
And at the time, for me, it felt really important to be perceived as this intelligent,
rational, professional person, because I was just, you know, making my way into the corporate world at the time.
So saying I saw a UFO really felt like it would invalidate that.
And knowing myself now, that's absurd.
And I definitely wouldn't feel any fear or shame sharing that I had seen something that I could not explain.
But at the time, I was super tied to that ideology.
And because of that, unfortunately, I didn't write down.
a lot or share a lot of messages with friends about the experience because I mostly just kept it
to myself or you know sometimes I would make a joke with someone and see how they responded to that
and then likely I just wouldn't bring it up again so overall it was a really strange experience
I didn't react how I would have thought I would have reacted at the time and still other than
you know this that you're hearing right now
I've never really talked about it.
And I'm not sure what I would say or what someone would say back to me,
but the experience was definitely one that got me a lot more interested in UFOs in Canada
and the experiences of others.
So I guess ultimately, whether or not there was an explanation for what I saw,
I'm still really grateful to have had it open my mind to the possibility
that there could be UFOs in a more concrete way in, I guess, my community
or in my, you know, smaller world, not the wider world.
Yeah, that's about it.
So thank you so much for listening to my story.
I really appreciate it.
Hi, my name is, well, I'm on Twitter as Abducted Cow.
And this is one of my, my first ever UFO experience,
the one I had as a child.
And it was back in the late mid-mid to late 70,
and I was just, I was age 9 or 10.
So I have trouble dating it accurately
because obviously I was young
and I've lost all the records I kept at the time.
It was in a place that I used to play around that time.
So 76, 77.
And it was either July or September, I think,
because it was, it was,
it was a time when it was still late,
quite, still light, quite late in the evening.
So, um, I used to stay out.
I was allowed to stay out a bit later.
And, um, I remember the sky being really, really blue.
I don't remember it getting dark at all.
Um, and it was the evening.
It was early evening.
Um, so I'd probably say summer of 76 either July or September.
Um, my dad got me into UFOs.
He actually bought UFO books and brought them home.
Um,
He had a book by Fondanagan.
It's probably the famous book.
I forget what he's called right now.
And he had a few others around,
which I still have a couple of them.
We watched documentaries together, me and my dad.
And we even went out.
He drove us out to UFO hotspots in Devon on Dark War at times,
see if we can see something.
We never did, as far as I know.
I was in the park with my sister anyway,
this particular case,
next to Lera Railway Dapel in Plymouth
in England
and it was a sunny early evening
pretty much cloud free
I think completely cloud free
if I remember correctly
and I saw something in the sky
very clear and still
it was kind of like a glassy
ball shape
an orb
some sort of orb
and it was very still
and you can see it very clearly
although it was a long way away
so well
all very small
I can't say I remember too much how it first appeared to me but I remember it was a disc
and very soon after I started watching it started giving off light so there may have been
appearing where it was just a disc and then it started giving off a sequence of light it moved
through green blue and red it was alternating between green blue and red and that went on for
quite a long time as well I can't remember exactly what the sequence was I did at the time
draw all this out on a bit of paper but I've lost it. At some point I noticed I wasn't the only
person watching there may be maybe around a dozen kids some with the parents and quite a few
now were watching this object. One kid I remember asked his dad what it was and the dad
said oh it's nothing it clearly wasn't nothing it clearly was something and because
of my interest in UFOs I
was determined to stay watching it to see how it ended. I think my sister probably wasn't that
interested and wanted to go home, but I didn't want to go home. And I'm not sure the time involved,
it felt like a long time that we were standing there watching it. At some point, I know it's a
tiny cloud being blown along towards the object. So there was otherwise blue sky, and there was this
tiny, tiny cloud, and it was moving in a very straight line towards the object.
and it was noticeable because it was the only cloud visible in the whole sky at the time.
The cloud moved until it covered up the object.
So you couldn't see the disc with the lights on it anymore.
You could just see the cloud.
And then it stopped.
It stopped moving and it just stayed in one place.
And then a bit of time passed and a plane flew out of the cloud.
No plane had flown in.
nothing had flown in.
All of this was very clear,
so I wasn't mistaken it for anything else.
And if I had seen a plane going to the cloud,
I would have seen it,
because I was watching it.
It had the whole sky to cross to get to the cloud.
I would have seen it somewhere.
It had the appearance of a passenger jet plane.
Flying at whatever cruising altitude,
they fly over Plymouth,
and I remember seeing planes flying at high.
There's no airport nearby,
so they did just fly over.
Well, there was no airport at the time.
nearby. And I don't think we have many planes flying over that weren't military. So the nearest airport
was, major airport was 40 miles away. The plane was silent, which I knew was unusual, because you
normally hear something. And it had no contrales at all, which also, again, I noted as being
unusual, because you can normally see a bloody great contrao, coming out of the back,
a long, you know, the long cloud left behind.
So I watched it move.
It just carried on going across the sky.
I can't remember what happened to the cloud,
whether it dissipated or whether it was still there.
I can't remember that at all now.
But the plane moved towards,
I think it was going north.
It was moving towards Darkmoor from where I was,
so maybe north-east.
And then it vanished.
It just,
disappeared, it just winged down of existence. It didn't fade away. It didn't speed up unless it was
really fast, so I couldn't see it going. But no, it just went down of existence. Suddenly gone. So I was,
I carried on watching for a while after that, I think, I seem to remember, to see if anything
more happened. It bugs me that I can't remember what happened to the cloud. But after that,
I went home and told my parents, my dad said he was envious.
as he'd never even see the UFO.
In fact, he said that a few times.
I think he was a bit annoyed that he wasn't there,
although I saw one without him.
I drew the whole thing out using my coloured pens.
I wrote a description.
I'd spent the evening doing that.
I got feeling it was a Sunday.
So I had a Sunday evening to sit and do that.
I wish I still had that, but I don't.
Probably lost it fairly quickly, to be honest.
My mum threw it out,
because she wasn't into it at all.
And I never reported it either.
I remember at the time I had intention to.
I think in the end I just wasn't sure who I could report it to,
who'd be interested.
And I just let it go.
I was quite excited by it.
I told quite a few people at the time, individually,
people that I thought I could trust.
I remember trying to get people at school,
trying to tell people at school about it
and getting my sister in as a witness.
And she just said, I don't remember.
She was a couple of days later.
She said, I don't remember anything.
So she wasn't going to talk about it.
And months later, I read Mothman Prophyses by John Keel.
And there was a case in there of a UFO.
Similarly, got covered up by cloud, and then a biplane flew out of it.
And I remember thinking, that sounds a little bit similar to what I saw.
So that, and the lights as well, it was similar with the lights,
and I got a little bit excited again by that.
because it wasn't that long after the book had come out.
So that was quite a recent...
I mean, I know it was in the 60s,
but it felt like quite a recent thing to me at the time.
And that's it, really.
That's it.
I've seen other things since,
but that's the best thing I've ever seen.
And that's the first thing I ever saw.
Okay, thank you.
Hey, Ryan, Kevin here.
So approximately almost 10 years ago now,
I was driving home on the freeway
maybe two to three in the morning.
And I was coming up on the roundabout to go switch freeways,
maybe about a mile from home.
And I could see these three red orbs floating above the freeway.
And I just knew in my gut that it wasn't anything normal, like flying there.
And I had been into UFOs and things like that.
Just casually as a kid, didn't really know if I disbelieved it or did believe it.
but in that moment it was kind of like a confirmation for me that these things are real and that's what this was that I was witnessing.
And as I came up around the roundabout, I drove right underneath them and I would say that if I were to stand on top of my car and reach up, I could probably touch one of them.
Knowing that this was a rare occurrence, I raced home and my mom happened to be up, she works late.
and I grabbed her. I said, you got to come see this.
Didn't tell her what it was. I said, you just have to see it. It's very interesting.
We got in the car, drove back. Again, it was only a mile, less than a mile away, so it didn't take long.
And they were completely gone. Like, not even far away, anything like that. It was completely gone.
And, of course, I probably seemed crazy to my mom at the time because here I am at two or three in the morning, grabbing her to,
take her to see something and it's not there anymore she probably thought i was on drugs or something
but anyway that was it and at the time i kind of had a regret of racing home and i feel like i should
have stopped and you know maybe had the experience and last a little bit longer so that i could
you know take more detail into it or whatever i was a little bit of a little bit longer so that i could you know take more
detail into it or whatever.
I was probably close to 18, 19 years old,
so I had just started driving out on my own and things like that.
So I would say I was becoming into adulthood
and having this experience confirmed that these things were real
was kind of a relief to me
because I actually witnessed it myself
and I didn't have to base it on anyone else's belief.
but at the same time now thinking back it almost taught me that to have a little bit of sympathy or empathy for for other witnesses because the first thing that people do when they talk about an experience that they had you know someone's going to say oh there were seagulls they were Chinese lanterns they were swamp gas whatever you may have but in that moment the best way I could describe them to
to you would be a Chinese lantern because that's the closest physical thing that I could use to
describe it. However, that's not what it was. And I just know it was not three Chinese lanterns.
It was almost in the middle of nowhere. I lived in a small town at the time. So two and three in
morning, I highly doubt someone would be floating three Chinese lanterns in the middle of nowhere.
Beyond that, I know that they were floating there. They weren't flying, so they weren't going up,
going down, moving at all. They were just there. And almost like they were just hanging from
something. And no cables to be seen, nothing for them to be hanging from. But just the way that
they were there in the sky, it was just as if something was holding them there.
And I've seen Chinese lanterns before. I know that that's not what it was, but that's just
the best thing that I could use to describe it. So it kind of gives me a lot of empathy for
other experiencers because when people doubt them, you know, it's easy to say, oh yeah,
Kevin saw three Chinese lanterns floating in the sky. It wasn't a big deal. But,
But unless you experience it yourself and you have the entire experience, it's kind of hard to say what someone else is experiencing.
Because I just had this feeling, like, in my gut that I knew that that's what they were.
I don't know if that was a feeling coming from what it was or if it was just in my heart or whatever.
but I knew that what I saw was not normal and it was confirmed to me.
So yeah, I don't know.
Looking back, this was, cell phones were just becoming popular,
but weren't very widespread, so it's not like I could have snapped a photo of it with my cell phone.
If I did, it was probably less than a megapixel of a camera,
so it's not like the photo would have come out very well.
Just looking back, I just kind of have a really.
regret that I wish I had some kind of a camera, some kind of a video camera, to record the experience.
I guess that's why my first thought was to race home and grab my mom to come experience it as well,
because I needed someone else to back me up and say that what I had seen was real.
But it also gives me a lot of empathy for other experiences because people always say, like,
well, why didn't you record it?
Why didn't you throw out picture of it?
Why didn't you do this or that?
Why is the camera so shaky?
Again, like, unless you're in that moment, you don't know what you're going to do.
And you almost kind of react at a, I don't know what the word to use, maybe like a wild natureistic level.
Like, you just respond naturally.
You don't think about what's going to, you know, oh,
I should shoot a camera, a picture of this, I should grab my video camera.
You just, you're in such awe of the experience that you're not thinking logically of what
you should do in that moment to prove that this experience happened.
You're just experiencing it.
And so that gives me a lot of empathy for people that are willing to share this.
In fact, this is probably the first time I've ever shared this publicly.
Just because I feel like it wasn't an experience for me to share.
It was just something that maybe I needed to see to confirm my belief in these things being out there.
Again, I was just going into adulthood, so maybe it was some type of lesson for me to say, you know, I'm not going off into.
to adulthood alone, I have someone looking out for me.
Or maybe in the moment, just because I was driving home so late,
maybe they were there looking after me to make sure I got home okay.
I really don't know.
But all in all is just, like I said, you can't really judge someone's experience
unless you've experienced something similar yourself.
Because you don't know what you're going to do in that moment.
It's just like someone that's in an accident.
When you're looking back, shoot, I wish I would have done this or that.
I wish I would have grabbed my special sentimental item from my house before my house burnt down.
I wish I would have grabbed my phone out of my car before the car caught on fire.
I don't know.
You always have those regrets because because in the moment you're not thinking logically.
You're just thinking of the experience.
And so I think that's something that everyone should keep in mind, whether you're an
experiencer or not, that just have an open heart and open mind and believe.
Hello, my name is Brett. I am 47. I live on the Gold Coast in Australia. I wear a few
hats for work, but I mostly work as an instructional designer. I also have a professional
fine arts and photography practice and degrees in teaching and visual arts. The Gold Coast is a city
with the population of around 680,000 people,
and as the name suggests, is on the east coast of Australia,
bordering the states of Queensland and New South Wales.
I live about 15 kilometres away from the beach.
This event took place in 2011.
It was about 9pm.
It was a dark evening.
There was very little moonlight, and the sky was clear,
and there was no wind.
I was taking a bag of garbage,
out to a larger bin that we have around the side of the house and faces the southeast.
As I walked via the property's front to go around the house's side
at about a 75 degree angle to the horizon and to the south
was an object moving slowly across the sky from east to west
at roughly 500 to 700 feet.
It moved at a steady pace of perhaps 20 to 30 kilometres per hour
which translates to 10 to 15 knots or 12 to 18 miles per hour.
Beneath it, it had three round orbs of red colour,
equidistant apart in an equilateral triangle.
The orbs had a steady red glow
and within each of the orbs was another darker coloured orb
but it was also reddish in the centre.
The orbs were fairly close to each other
but not that far apart.
The red glow had the intensity of an electric hot plate turned on high.
It was tough to tell how big or what shaped the object was because it was dark
and I could only see the orbs.
The orbs appeared to be a part of the same structure
so they didn't appear to be separately moving objects.
I would suggest the object was 30 feet in diameter or possibly more
but I'm only guessing I can't really tell.
The object held a steady course and altitude for the entire time I watched it,
which lasted for as long it was visible to me, which would have been five minutes or more.
The object also emitted a very unusual sound.
If you can imagine the sound of gas inside a gas bottle when you turn a gas bottle on or off,
it emitted a kind of crackling sound,
and the sound was contained within something as though it was metallic,
as though an echo coming from within a metallic object.
When I first saw the object, I immediately thought it was a fancy Chinese lantern, and although
not dismissive, I kind of didn't really think too much of it because I thought, oh, that's
really cool.
But after about 10 or 15 seconds, and having heard the sound it was making, and by its size, its
trajectory, its course, its altitude, I began to doubt that very quickly.
I'm not aware of Chinese
landings making that kind of sound
and I have no doubts that this object
was making that sound.
There was no wind either
yet the object retained a steady path
and wasn't gaining in altitude.
There was no flickering at all from the orbs
it was a solid constant glow.
I didn't consider it a drone either
because drones were quite rare in Australia
in 2011
and the sound it made was entirely different for a drone.
So that's why I kept watching it.
I was waiting for something to happen, and it just kept going.
I considered grabbing my phone or camera, but I thought it might disappear when I got back to where I was.
So the next morning, I looked up any local headlines on the internet.
There was nothing.
I went to work and told the small team of four people I worked with.
Did anyone hear of anything in the news, about a possible UFO, or did anyone see anything last night?
And no one did.
They all listened and took it quite seriously when I told them what I had experienced,
and they asked the same kinds of questions that I asked myself.
And then one of them cracked a joke, and everyone laughed,
and that was kind of the end of the discussion.
I didn't speak about it much after that,
mainly because I didn't think reporting it would have any consequence.
And unless someone stepped forward and announced that they had constructed this thing
and could explain what it was, then there was no telling what it was.
We can only guess.
Although I still don't know what I saw was and am reluctant to say I saw a UAP or UFO, I do fervently believe in the phenomena of UAPs, while I can't rule out that some UAP sightings are the products of U.S. black budgets, I am reasonably certain, unidentified aerial phenomena of unknown origins are visiting us.
What they are, how they get here, who or what controls them are the big unanswered questions, and this is what drives my curiosity.
and desire to study them. Thanks so much for having me.
My name's Louis C. Menace. I am an actor in Los Angeles, California,
and I run the YouTube channel, the Unidentified Celebrity Review.
If you haven't heard of it, please go check it out.
I'm very fascinated by the UAP topic. Of course, if you do or do not know,
I'm also very politically active in moving this UAP topic further into the halls of Congress
and our senators.
It's, I love this topic for a multitude of reasons.
I'm not going to get into that here because that's not what you're here for.
You're here for my story.
So the year is 1993.
I was 13 years old.
I was living in Cooper City, Florida.
And it's about 20 miles outside of Miami.
So I was 13 years old.
And my best friend at the time, whose name was Tony,
invited me to a birthday party of one of his friends.
Now, I can't remember this girl's name.
But what I do remember is that she didn't live very far from me.
I'd say probably two miles tops.
But, you know, again, my house was one of these very cookie-cutter developments in her house
was literally lined up against an entire cow pasture.
So, you know, we get to this party.
and you had great time, you know, typical kids' birthday party, but there was a lot of people.
This was a big property.
These people had a lot of friends.
And so the, this was around, I'd say summertime.
It had to have been summer.
And the sun went down and the party was still going on.
And at some point, my friend Tony and I see this girl who's standing out and,
the middle of this property.
And she's by herself.
And I think it was actually the girl whose party it was.
And she's looking to the sky.
And so we're like, what is she doing?
So we walked over there and we're saying, hey, what are you looking at?
What's going on?
And she points up.
And we see, now this is where my memory really kind of jumbles because you got to understand.
this is a 27-year-old memory.
We both look up, and I do remember seeing a strange light,
but it was pretty high, and it was pretty far away.
Nothing crazy unusual about it.
But then this is where my memory really jumbles.
The next thing I remember is that this light is hovering 100 feet above a cow pasture,
and it's the size of two school buses.
two school buses stacked on top of one another.
I don't remember...
I see, man, gosh, this is where memories really play tricks.
But I remember it having a shape,
but I don't remember any distinct lines.
What I remember, the first description I thought of
when I was explaining it to people,
was it looks like a breakfast bowl,
like you would put your cereal in.
And imagine if you took that breakfast bowl and just made it, you know, one-tenth smaller than the original breakfast bowl.
And then you take that breakfast bowl and you flip it on top of the one sitting on the table and you put them together at the rim.
That's kind of what this thing looked like.
And what I really remember was how bright it was, especially in the middle.
The middle of it was so bright white.
and the outside or of it, if I remember correctly, was almost like a green hue.
As soon as I saw it, I do remember.
And of course, by this time, the entire party had walked over to where we were.
And you were hearing, wow, oh my God, what is that?
What's going on?
And as this is happening, it was almost like slow.
motion. Even as a, as a 13-year-old kid, I can remember going through my mental
rolodex of what this object could be. Helicopter, no, there's no noise. It's close enough
we should hear something if it's a helicopter. Is it a blimp? No, it's not big enough to be a
blimp, and I've been around blimps. I've been around the good year blimp. It's way,
louder than this object is. I mean, a big Goodyear Blimp and they're very common in this area of Florida that I lived in. Blimps are very, very common because we had the Miami Dolphins that played all the time. Not far from our home. And there's just, there's always something going on in Fort Lauderdale or Miami that requires a good year blimp. So seeing the good year blink was something that I was very, very familiar with. It was not a blimp. It couldn't have been a plane because it was.
was stationary.
And also, what is a plane doing above a cow pasture?
I mean, I'm literally, I'm going through this Rolodex.
And nothing that I can think of is matching what I'm looking at.
So, as soon as I finish that mental Rolodex, the immediate thought that filled my brain was,
I want to get a better look at it.
So I began to run.
I started running toward this object.
but to do so, I had to go back the way I came and go around this little like berm or fenced area
so I can get to that dirt road that was closer to the cow pasture.
And this dirt road had trees that were, I'd say, 50 feet taller like pine trees that lined
the dirt road.
And I did not take my eye off of this object as I was trying to run closer to it.
And I did lose it behind these trees.
And the second I got to the dirt road, I lost track of it because it was behind these trees.
And then when I got to the road, it was gone.
I never saw it again.
I did not see it leave.
I don't remember the descriptions of the other people that didn't run closer with me,
what they described as it left or what did it look like.
Did it zoom off?
Did it blink out?
I don't know.
I don't remember asking and I don't remember getting that question answered at any time.
I was floored.
As a 13-year-old kid, I had already had an interest in UFOs.
As a matter of fact, the very first thing that got me into the UFO topic was the Bob Lazar story,
which had happened four years earlier.
So my curiosity in this topic had already been fueled.
I was already looking at UFO books in the library.
It was a topic that I was very, very familiar with as a 13-year-old kid.
So that's why I think I was in a very unique position to witness something like this,
because I've already had a lot of frame of reference,
especially when it came to planes.
We lived pretty much right underneath the flight path.
of the Fort Lauderdale International Airport.
So for an object to be in that cowfield at that time
was probably a flight risk.
You know, again, this is the landing path
that, you know, major commercial airlines
are using to land their planes.
So, you know, you see a commercial jet come over this property
at a pretty low level every 15, 20 minutes,
you know, back in 1993, Fort Lauderdale International Airport wasn't as busy as it is today.
But you go today and you will hear airplanes, commercial jets, fly over this property every five minutes now.
I mean, there's constantly landing.
So it was really easy to determine that this thing did not fit typical aircraft, not to mention.
Living in Miami, every year we had the Miami International Air Show.
So I was very familiar with the Blue Angels.
I was very familiar with jet aircraft.
I had been in jet aircraft.
I mean, of course, I wasn't a professional at 13.
I wouldn't be able to tell you what kind of jet I was looking at when it was flying by
at a close distance or a really far distance.
But I was familiar with the sounds, with the maneuvers, what they look like, what they
especially sound like.
And that's the thing that really, really struck me as so odd about this object.
We were only three or 400 yards away from it, and there was no sound.
And this is a time before drones.
This is a time before any of that kind of technology even existed.
So it was profound.
The way it made me feel was excited.
I've never been that excited to have seen something in a lot of.
my life. I think it did scare some people in the crowd, but I was really excited because I knew
what I was looking at so much so that I tried to get a better look at it. I tried to get a better
look of it and it just didn't work out. I wish I had stayed where I was because then maybe I
would have been able to see it take off or or blink out or whatever happened, but I never
got the opportunity to see that. So with that excitement, you know, everybody in the part
party is now talking about this.
And when I tell you, there was at least 40 witnesses to this event.
There was 40 witnesses to this event.
So I was not by myself.
And sure, you can say maybe some of the parents there were drinking and inebriated,
but there was kids there, a lot of kids.
And they all saw myself included.
So my best friend's mom comes to pick us up.
And I'd say it was probably around 9.30 at night when I got home.
And I burst through the front door at a million miles per hour.
And my entire house, my sister, my little brother, my mother, my grandmother, my stepdad,
they were all pretty much sleeping.
Everybody was in bed or getting ready to pass out.
And I ran into my parents' bedroom.
and I was just so excited and so amped and so I wanted them to hop out of bed and listen to what I was saying
because my life had just profoundly changed and I wanted them to know why.
My parents did not react the way I wanted them to.
It was like, okay, son, all right, let's talk about it tomorrow.
We'll talk about it tomorrow.
We were just trying to get some sleep.
And I didn't sleep for the whole night.
As a matter of fact, what was interesting is at the time, I'm trying to remember the name of the television show.
But there was a show on Fox TV around this time where you could call in and tell the television show about your experience.
And I was very detailed.
I remember the direction, the way the wind was blowing, what the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
temperature was like where the craft was located in what direction it was when we first saw it
versus when we saw it over the cowfield in what direction that that was i laid out so many
details because they were so fresh on my mind to to the voicemail of this production company so
maybe somewhere out there there's a recording of my testimony on what happened with this
sighting and it was I'm telling you the most profound moment of my life and ever since then
I've been hooked absolutely hooked and I've gone down the rabbit holes I've worked my way
out of rabbit holes and I the cool thing is is that it's taken me 27 years to really formulate
and learn how to talk about this experience, but not only this experience, but my passion for this
field. And the cool thing about finding this passion, I think in, you know, the latest part of my
life, at least as of right now, I started my show a year ago, is that I could talk about
this topic without ridicule, without people looking at me like I have two heads. This
topic is no longer saved for the tinfoil hat party.
And so, you know, that was my experience.
That was my aha moment.
And ever since then, I assume this is kind of like what heroin is like.
I've always been looking for that fix.
I want to see another one.
I really, really do.
I would kill to go back in a time machine and relive.
that night, that summer night in 1993.
So I just want to say thank you to Ryan Sprague for allowing me to share this story.
It's not one that I like to share often because of the way I'm trying to formulate my
political activism around the UAP topic and bringing personal stories is usually not very
helpful in this field.
But I do enjoy the opportunity to actually tell people because it is a badge of honor.
I got to witness something that very few people have ever, ever experienced.
And I feel lucky.
I really, really do.
And it's inspired every single decision that I've made in my life.
Absolutely profound.
So thank you, Ryan.
Thank you to all the fans out there, Indy, somewhere in the Skies family.
I consider you my family as well.
Ryan Sprigg is one of the best human beings on the planet.
And I would do anything for the man, as I'm sure you guys would.
So show him your love, show him your support, because he's always heading up wonderful ideas like this
and wonderful ways to share personal experiences because he's right.
They're important.
We need to talk about them.
need to document them.
So that way we can find similarities.
And this is data and it's good data.
You know,
unfortunately right now it's not the data our congressmen want to look at.
But in 15, 20, 25 years, I think this data will be, will be a request from the people
that we want to tell.
They're going to want to hear this data because they're going to have such a mountain of
data that they're going to want to fill in gaps to that data.
And I think that's where we, the people will come in, the people with these stories and experiences.
So thank you, Brian Sprague.
And that's it.
I'm done.
Stay safe and be well.
Peace.
Hello, my name is Brian Wellman.
I currently live in Tennessee, but in September of 2019, I was visiting Noab, Utah with my dad on vacation.
And we were in Canyonlands National Park.
I had taken a...
an online night photography class and I wanted to take some Milky Way photos.
So we decided to go out that night and do that.
We had one last night where the moon was going to be down about,
I can't remember the exact time, around 1030 at night,
and then we should have, you know, pretty good night sky.
It was cloudy and raining in some areas, but it was clearing off.
We did still have some clouds, but not really bad.
My father was sick that night, and we were trying to decide when we were going to go.
I wanted to sleep a little bit and then get up at like two or three in the morning and go.
But he thought since he was sick, it would be best to go early in the night,
and then he could sleep uninterrupted and hopefully feel better.
So we headed out to Canyonlands probably between 9.30 and 10.
I know we got there before the moon was down.
I had set up my camera beforehand and all the settings that I needed for some Milky Way photos.
I had the camera on a tripod, et cetera.
So we got there and we just drove into the park.
We were going to look for a good place to set up where hopefully we wouldn't have any cars or anyone around.
So we ended up driving into Schaefer Canyon Overlook, which is quite a nice overlook
there towards the east as the moon was setting to the west behind me, if I remember correctly.
So I was set up, I had the tripod pulled out, and I had just practiced taking a couple
shots as I waited for the moon to go down.
Shortly after the moon went down, actually before I was really taking any photos,
I noticed coming from kind of the southeast, a streak in the sky.
and I didn't think much of it, thought it was probably a shooting star or, you know, a meteor.
And I went back to getting ready to take some photos.
And it wasn't within, it was within a minute probably that I saw a streak in the same general area in the sky.
So I stopped and I looked and I noticed three lights, which I thought looked like they were in formation.
And I thought, wow, that's a UFO.
So I ran over to my dad.
he was sitting in the car because, again, he didn't feel well.
And I said, hey, dad, I think we got a UFO.
And he said, yeah, I've been watching it.
He said it came over this kind of like cliff or hill there and moved slowly.
And then a couple times it streaked into a position where it was probably, you know, degree-wise from us,
probably 75 degrees in the sky there.
So we watched it and it moved a little closer and slowly in.
And again, at that point I thought it was three different objects.
So we watched it a little bit and it moved around and made some incredible movements.
You know, streaking through the sky, it was completely silent.
It looked like it moved back.
back kind of close to where it was before a couple of times and really interesting.
Directly due east, there was a white light, very bright white light in the sky.
And I was talking to my dad and he said he had seen that almost since we had been there.
And at times he thought it was maybe someone with a flashlight, maybe someone with a real bright light.
But he watched it for a while and was making really erratic movements.
And he said he actually watched.
for quite some time, didn't know what it was.
So we, you know, I saw that UFO off to the side to the east,
and then we had the one that had come from the southeast.
They each had like different color lights.
The one that had kind of done streaks in, had whitish blue lights.
Again, at this time I thought it was three different objects.
Then the one that was the bright light to the east was just look like one bright white light.
And it moved very radically throughout the canyons.
It looked like a ping pong ball.
It was moving so fast and erratory.
down and in and out of the canyons, just fascinating. We had no idea what that was.
It was about this time that I noticed three red lights, and they were kind of in the east too,
and they were, again, looked like something in formation, and that's what I thought it was
that they were in formation. At one point, they looked like they did a pivot and plunged
towards the ground, which it really caught my breath because I thought, wow, that's going to
explode into the ground. And they just disappear. There's no, no sound, nothing happened, no explosion,
and they were gone. They would reappear within a few minutes, and I saw that one again. So, you know,
at times there were three different UFOs in the sky at one time that we were able to see. I remembered
I had a small pair of binoculars, and I got those out of the car, and I put it on, put those
binoculars on the first one that had come in, which it had stayed pretty much in the same
spot, you know, besides moving back and forth a few times. And it was then I realized that it
wasn't three different craft, but it was one triangular craft. It was a black triangle with the white
bluish lights on it. So I gave my dad the binoculars and we both took a couple turns looking at it.
Just an amazing sight through the binoculars. I also put the binoculars on the one that was
towards the east, the white, the bright light, the bright white one. And, and I also put the binoculars. And
And I noticed when I had binoculars on it, it was also a triangle.
The white light was so bright.
Actually, three lights were so bright.
It looked like one bright light, but it was also a triangle.
And it was the one that was bouncing around within the canyons.
I found the one with the red lights on the corners, and again, another triangle.
This encounter, these triangles were there for two hours, the time we were there.
during that time
I had taken an online class
so I was really determined
to try to get some nice sky photography
which I was able to do
unfortunately I was only able to get
some photographs of the white one
as it was silhouetted
on the LaSalle Mountains
which were due east from Canyonlands
but we did observe those
triangles
for within those two hours
I saw a lot of weird
erratic movements from them
they were able to streak
what looked like miles across the sky in a fraction or a second.
They would even look like they disappeared and would appear in another area.
Sometimes it looked like a just big streak of light,
and they'd appear, you know, at the end of that streak.
I never saw a center light.
My dad did notice with the one white one that was really bright,
that it pivoted what looked to be vertical,
and it turned, and he saw a white light in the center fire on,
and it looked like when that light came on, it propelled itself across the sky.
So I did not see that, but he did, and I thought that was a very interesting observation.
I would have liked to have seen it, but I continued to watch them.
The one with the bluish white lights and the one with red lights interacted for a while.
The white one had pulled back again, and I noticed they looked like they were kind of rotating around each other.
I'm not sure what they were doing, kind of like orbiting each other or just, you know, flying around.
each other. That lasted a little bit. We observed that with binoculars. I did, again, tried to take
a couple pictures. Those just did not turn out. I didn't see anything of the other craft. The only one
I saw any pictures of was the one that was with white, bright lights. So again, you know,
I didn't really feel any fear. It was more, this is amazing. They did kind of circle. I felt
like we were being surrounded at one time, and I felt a little, you know, a little apprehension
there. It was like, wow, we're completely surrounded. But I did.
knew at any point, you know, with the sophistication of what we were saying, that they could do
anything that wanted. Again, my father was sick, so around midnight, maybe a little after, we decided
to go ahead and wrap things up and go. The craft were still there. They were still maneuvering
through the canyons and up in the air. I'm not sure what they were doing. I speculate that they were
mapping or doing a reconnaissance of the area. I was in military intelligence that just looked
look like they were really gathering information of the terrain, which the white one was, again,
was in and out of the canyons and all over. So I don't know if it was mapping. The only two things
that could come to mind for me is they were mapping or doing a reconnaissance or they were looking
for something. So I'm not sure what they were doing. We left. We started driving down from Canyonlands
coming off the ridges there. And I do remember, you know, talking to my dad. I was like,
I just was looking and wanted to make sure we didn't have any lost time, which,
You know, I don't think we had any lost time at all.
Just an incredible encounter with three UFOs that lasted, you know, at least two hours there, almost two hours.
But it's something I'll never forget.
I reached out a couple of things.
I reached out to an author, Dave Marler, who has written a book about triangles, which if you read the book, they've been cited for many years, not just since the 70s, but going back through time.
I also was in an episode of Unidentified.
They did an episode on Black Triangles.
I stayed anonymous there.
I was just apprehensive about putting my name out there.
But now I realized it's, you know, there's nothing to hide from.
You know, as far as my name, I don't mind that people know.
And I'm more than happy to answer questions that anybody would have.
But that was interesting being on that episode of Unidentified.
They did a really good job, but there were some things they left out, some things they kind of twisted around, I guess, probably to try to make it a more interesting story.
But, yeah, it's season two, and it's, you know, the one on Black Triangles.
Thank you for your time.
Bye.
Hi, I'm Lee.
I live in Manchester in the UK.
I'm 35 years old.
I was around eight or nine at the time.
I was traveling in a car from Blackpool to map back to Manchester.
In the car, there was myself, my brother who was two years younger than me, my mum and my dad.
So we were driving down a country road on the way home.
It was pitch black.
We were the only car on the road from what I remember.
The car we were driving in was an old black style astra,
and it had one of the old sunroves that they don't think they do anymore.
And I just remember looking up, seeing this black triangle in the sky.
So I said to me, mum, look at that, mum.
that. So my mum looked up. She said, I don't know. I remember shaking my brother to wake him up
because he was asleep at the time. Unfortunately, I don't remember what my brother said because it was
a long time ago. I remember my dad asking what was, what's going on. So my mum told him. However,
he couldn't really do much except carry on driving. So as we looked up, we watched this object
for around two minutes and then it just disappeared. No sound. No lights. He was just gone.
it stuck with me ever since
and I still bring it up now to talk about with him one
and she she remembers it vividly as well
just a shame we had no recording equipment
because back then it was just the big camcord of things
we had but we didn't really carry it at the time
so that's a bit of a regret
I don't remember feeling scared or frightened
I just remember looking in amazement more than anything
and ever since then I've been interested in UFOs
and UAPs and anything to do with space
and it's left me 100% convinced that we're not alone.
I want to get an opportunity to always look up to the sky
to see if we can see anything else
but unfortunately I've not seen anything since.
Thank you, Ryan, for giving me the opportunity to tell my story.
I know it's only short.
Keep up the good work on the podcast.
Keep looking up.
Hi, my name is Kyle, and this is my sighting.
In 2003, I was living in the town,
of Belvedere, Illinois.
And my brother and I were playing horse in our driveway,
and we had a hoop that was on our garage,
and it was facing west.
And my brother had tossed the ball in,
and it bounced off the hoop.
And I go to follow the hoop with my eyes
as it goes into the trees,
and I see this dark, charcoal-colored triangular shape.
And it was probably,
2,000 to 2,500 feet in the air, almost, almost directly above and to the front, or to the west of us.
And it didn't have any, like, solid edges.
It was all rounded on the sides.
And the back, in the back in a recess section, there were two, like, circle nozzles on each side,
and a longer elongated oval in the center,
but it was like recessed inside of the,
that edge of the triangle.
And I looked at my brother and I was like,
what's that?
At the time, I was really interested in, you know,
our modern jets and mostly World War II aircraft.
And I was like, I've never seen anything like that.
And that weekend we were supposed to go to our grandparents' house.
And we did.
And we talked to my step-grandfather about it,
and we spent two hours on the internet trying to find something that matched our description,
and we never found it.
And shortly after that, I started having bouts of sleep paralysis.
I would wake up in the middle of the night and I would be frozen.
And I couldn't move my fingers or my toes.
And I couldn't scream.
And it was really hard.
And I didn't know what to do about it.
I continued having the sleep paralysis for years after that.
And I eventually just figured out that I had to relax.
and breathe and close my eyes and focus on moving things to get my body working again.
And shortly after the first incident, I was getting off the bus with my friend Nick.
And as we got off the bus, we saw these two jets chase something that was smoldering in the air.
and we asked our reading teacher the next day who was a Air Force reservist.
And she said that she didn't know anything about it.
She'd ask, and we, of course, never heard anything.
But after that, I started having real vivid, lucid dreams,
and that's something I still have to this day.
I don't correlate these incidents and put them together,
but it seems that it's something that happens to people who witness the dark triangles.
And yeah, that's what happened to me.
Hello, my name's Michael.
I'm originally from the United Kingdom from a place called Liverpool.
I migrated and I now live in Perth, Western Australia.
I'd like to tell you what happened to me and my girl.
friends at the time who went on to become my wife. The event took place in 1997. I actually know precisely
when it took place. It was the 28th of March. I'll tell you a bit more about that, why I know the
date a little bit later. What happened was we were in a car travelling between,
Formby and Southport in West Lancashire in the United Kingdom.
We were on the way to a party.
It was about, it was like early evening.
It was still light, but it was starting to go dark.
And we were quite excited.
We hadn't been drinking or anything.
We were just on the way to the party because we were driving.
and we're on like quite a it's quite a rural road because it's on the coast and southport's like a seaside town
as we're driving I was listening to the radio and it mentioned that Halve Bob Comet would be visible in the northern hemisphere skies that night
And I was intrigued by that, mostly because several days beforehand,
the cult members from the Heaven's Gate sect had committed suicide.
And for those of you who remember, or for those of you don't,
the story goes that the cult members committed suicide
because they believed that they were going to be transported onto a UFO that was hidden in Hal's Bob comet.
Now, I'm not making a judgment on that.
I'm just letting you know what I saw anyway.
But I was intrigued by that anyway.
And that's one of the reasons why I was interested to see whether I could see this particular comet.
So as we're driving, I started looking out the window just to see if I could see anything.
think as we were driving, driving past.
And then as my wife was driving, I was in the passenger seat.
I noticed something out the side window.
And I could see quite a large object in the sky kind of coming into view.
So I couldn't quite make it out.
So I asked my wife to pull over so I could get a better look.
So we pulled over at the side of the road.
And literally, it was quite bizarre
Because I distinctly remember looking
Trying to make out what I can see
And it was quite an overcast day
March days in the UK can be quite wintry
And it was quite overcast
So there was a lot of cloud cover
But the cloud just opened up
To reveal
I couldn't see the whole object
I could only see one side of it
But it was just
enormous. I mean gigantic. Like people have asked me to explain how big. I'm talking like half a mile to
a mile across. I mean, this thing was enormous and I couldn't see all of it because some of it was still
hidden in the cloud. I did make a report of this many years later to a UFO site and I've
looked at it and I've mentioned on that that it was cigar shaped
that's not a memory I have now
I may have thought one side of it was cigar shaped
but I couldn't see the whole object anyway
I couldn't make out any distinctive features of the object
I couldn't make out whether it was metal
what it was made of
it was grey in colour very bland
looking but what I certainly could see is three-dimensional structure and I could see it was an object
and it wasn't moving and I remember looking and thinking how is that object able to stay perfectly
still and not move my wife was was seeing exactly the same as what I was seeing so it wasn't
like a delusion or a mirage.
We were talking while we were looking at it.
How high was it?
It was quite high, I'd say, at least 10,000 feet,
maybe 15,000 feet.
It was right up there.
But it was just giant.
The strange thing was that whilst we're watching it,
we noticed that there was, I think there was three orbs,
like light-coloured small objects, very bright, very intense coloured.
I think one was green, one was red and one was yellow.
I'm not 100% shown out on the colours,
but they were definitely kind of connected to the main craft
in the sense that they were interacting with it.
And the interesting thing was,
They were basically darting haphazardly across the horizon, the panoramic horizon.
And the speed that they were moving, literally one would go from one end of the horizon to the other in a blink of an eye.
And I remember thinking at the time, that's not physically possible to move with that speed.
It was almost like at the speed of light.
I mean it was just incredible speeds
it was just these things were just darting around the main craft
again they look like solid objects
they weren't lasers
it was difficult to kind of work out how big they were
they were quite small in comparison to the big craft
but that doesn't mean to say that they were they were tiny either
it was just difficult to work out they were circular
very orb-like kind of objects.
We observed this.
I'll be honest with you, I was freaking out.
I was so excited.
My wife was getting,
my girlfriend, who went on to be my wife,
was getting quite scared,
and she was urging me to leave
because we were going to be late for the party.
I really didn't want to go,
but eventually after five or ten minutes of watching this show,
I couldn't wait to get back into the car
because I wanted to get to the party
and tell everyone what was going on.
We got back into the car
we started driving towards Southport
as we're driving
it was probably
five, ten minutes and it was
starting to go dark
we were coming into the outskirts
of Southport which is like
quite a small town
really
and we were hitting some busier road
and all of a sudden, as we're talking about what we'd seen,
there was an enormous flash of instantaneous light within the car itself,
which basically blinded us because it felt as if it came in either through the sunroof or the windscreen,
it lasted about a second or so.
my wife who was driving was completely blinded and had to do an emergency stop.
But then as soon as it hit the car and hit us, the light was gone.
It lasted like a second.
And afterwards, I was just, I just looked at my wife and said,
did you just witness what I've just witnessed and she just based out crime?
I mean, it was, there's the, the intro.
thing about what happened to us is these are the two most extraordinary things that have
ever happened to me in my life and they happened within a 10 minute period. I'm absolutely
certain that whatever came into the car, it wasn't like a faulty speed camera or whatever,
it wasn't like a laser
this thing took over the centre
that the whole
car inside the car
we couldn't see anything
we were absolutely blinded by the most intense
white light I've ever witnessed
and as I say after it went after it had finished
it was gone
my wife
I was so excited
I wanted to get to the party
and tell everyone
my wife
begged me not to talk about it
because she thought would be ridiculed
because of the taboo nature
of this phenomenon
and for some reason
people are just not willing to accept
that these things happen
this thing has stayed with me
and my wife
when
we're no longer together now unfortunately although we've got a good relationship for over 20 years
what 30 years and it still strikes me as the most bizarre episode in my life and she won't talk
about it I've tried to get her to talk about it I think because she doesn't quite understand
what happened she'd rather not think about it because it doesn't fit into the way she wants
the world to work.
What do I think it was?
I don't know.
I don't think it was
of this world
because I don't see
how anything that I saw
we've got that sort of technology
and the speeds
that I saw on that day
and then what happened
afterwards
there was an element
after that
We both said that we felt as if we'd been probed and we felt a little bit weird afterwards.
There wasn't any time distortion or anything.
It was just the light came and then it went.
I tried to kind of scour and do some research to see if anybody else had seen anything similar that night.
But I wasn't able to find anything that recorded this particular.
event. As I say, it took place on, I believe, I think it was a Saturday night because we were going to a
party. It's the 28th of March, 1997. The Heavens Gate cult members had committed suicide, I believe,
a couple of days earlier. And it was at the time when Hal's Bob Comet was still
in the area.
I hope you enjoyed the story.
It certainly changed my life.
It gave me a fresh perspective on kind of what is important in life.
I certainly am a believer that we're not the only life force in this universe.
And thank you, Ryan, for giving me the opportunity to tell this story.
Hey, how's it going, Ryan, and somewhere in the sky's podcast.
My name is Roz, and this is my story.
So it begins when I was around 16 years old, and I was at a buddy's house of mine.
And we were just watching a movie in his living room.
It was around 9 o'clock at night, wintertime, so it was pretty cold out, and it had been dark for a while.
And we were in his living room watching a movie, all the lights out.
And the way his living room is oriented, you have, you know, the couch is facing the TV,
and then the TV has two windows behind it.
So we were looking at the TV along with facing these windows.
And the windows had the blinds down.
So we're sitting there and then a freaking super bright light that was moving started to come
through the windows behind the TV with the blinds down. That's how bright it was. So we were like,
you know, what the heck is that? And where my friend lived, it was pretty rural and he had a field
right behind his house. So our first thought was, did a tractor turn on its headlights or something?
And they're coming through into the living room. But we got up, you know, this is, this
this took place within seconds.
And so we immediately popped up and went out his back door to go check out what it was.
And in the sky around, I want to say two football fields away is a fireball.
It is, I always said it was around the size of an SUV.
And this fireball, it almost looked like your cliche picture of the sun just shrink down to the size of a minivan.
And it was so close. It was actually unbelievable. And it was moving slowly across the sky, not doing anything, just moving. And we went to school with a friend of ours who lived down the street from my buddy. And we immediately called her up because it was actually heading right in the direction of her house. So we called her and we told her, you know, you got to go outside and look what's coming over your house right now. And as she,
as she was about to go outside, the best way I can describe it, the fireball collapsed in on itself
and was gone. So yeah, that is the story. And I know you wanted to, wanted me to include how it made me feel.
And I think the best way I can describe it is it made me pretty excited. Like I said, this happened when I was around 16.
So it was definitely the event that pushed me into getting super interested in the whole, in the whole UFO subject.
And yeah, it made me, it made me pretty happy because I love UFO so much.
And I'm lucky to be able to have a story of my own.
So that is, that is everything.
Thank you, Ryan.
Thank you, uh, somewhere in the skies podcast.
Hi, Ryan.
This is Sean and my oldest daughter, Eva, who's 11 years old.
Uh, we're from Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
and on August 8th of this year, we were camping,
and we were in Rocky Mountain House,
which is a couple hours north of us,
and we're heading north towards our campsite.
When my daughter saw what she thought was an airplane,
but she said it looked weird, so she yelled.
What is that?
Because I was tracking it from when it was in the middle of our windshield
to where it was pretty much directly,
beside me.
And so I looked at it, and sure enough I could see it,
and it was about 3,000 feet above us,
and it was about the size of an airplane easily,
but it was going really, really fast, and I was shocked.
I just didn't know what to do.
There was no one else on the road.
It was unbelievable.
I had never seen anything like it.
It was completely white.
It looked exactly like what you would think
a double-sided egg would look like,
you know, if it had the thin end,
on both ends instead of like a thin and thick.
It was out about, it was flying at a 30 degree angle, kind of like almost like belly up.
And it was moving hella fast.
And it kind of slowed down once we saw it.
And it had a shimmery look to it, almost kind of like it was blurry.
So it was traveling directly west.
We went, I tried to find a spot to pull over.
I asked my daughter to grab the binoculars that were right beside her.
She went, reached over to grab them, and she turned back,
and she saw it drop a thousand feet straight down,
and I found a spot to pull over,
and I went to reach over to grab my cell phone.
But as I was grabbing my cell phone, I was looking left,
I saw it actually do a hard 90 straight north into a cloud,
and then I grabbed my cell phone.
I was going to take a video now that we were parked,
and we looked at it and we couldn't find it anymore.
And my wife, for whatever reason,
she just could not look up.
She said she just had this compulsion to look straight down.
Same with my other daughter.
They both just could not look at it for some reason.
Like Sarah said it was a plane and she couldn't look up.
She couldn't even look at it for some reason.
And now every time we talk about it, she's quite uneasy.
and then Hannah yeah for same same reason she just literally couldn't look up for some reason
so it was kind of weird so eva and I were the only ones that got to see that particular egg
so then that was neat we were just shocked couldn't believe we had seen that so then we continued
on to the campsite and we got to the campsite and we told my parents who were camping with us
and asked we started asking my mom about her experience which was back in
when she was nine or ten and eight yeah yeah and uh she had a close encounter with the third kind
and she said how the way we were reacting was exactly how she reacted when she was a young child
and then eva and i decided to draw a picture separately of what we saw and we drew the same thing
like a double-sided egg almost like a tick-tac but fat in the middle and uh we even drew i drew like
little squigglys around and so did she.
So yeah, that was our, that's our story.
And then as far as, like, feelings, uh, I've had this obsessive, like,
compulsion now to constantly look in the sky.
I've had another experience since then and Ava's had, how many of you had now?
I've had five.
Five experiences?
Yeah.
Uh, since then.
Uh, my recent one was when we were, I went out hunting, um, up by White Court in November,
uh, third week of November.
and we were sleeping in a tent.
It was minus 20.
And we heard, I, everybody was asleep.
It was about two or three in the morning.
I woke up and I heard this, what sounded to me like a swooshing sound.
I felt it was a plane, but it was like a swoosh instead, like the air was swooshing.
And it came over top of the tent.
I could hear it just stop above us.
And then I fell asleep.
And then when we woke up, I wrote.
remembered it, but that's all I remembered. And I asked everybody, normally everyone gets up to go pee in the middle of the night at hunting because everyone's had a few drinks. And no one actually woke up that night. Everyone said they slept the greatest they've slept in a couple of years. And it's been really weird. It felt like these two experiences have made me feel like it's almost like watching. But I don't know how else to explain it. I don't know how you feel.
I feel fine.
It's weird because my dad's like was scared and I was didn't feel anything.
I felt normal when they showed when they were here.
Hi, Ryan.
Thank you very much for the opportunity to be able to tell my story.
My UFO sighting happened, I think it was like 1997.
I was a social worker working in a camp that was for kids.
It was basically, I mean, it was basically like a detention center.
But it was out in the middle of the desert.
It was in Alfrida, Arizona, which is very close to the border of Mexico and really just out in the middle of nowhere.
So the kids lived at the camp and the staff lived at the camp.
And the way it was set up, there was an area where the kids stayed.
And then there was like the dorms or whatever where the staff lived.
And there was a little path that went from the staff housing to the area where the kids lived.
And that path was not lit.
It was pretty dark.
Like I said, it was the desert.
but there was a little path that went between the two places.
So I was walking with another staff member along this path.
And I'm just telling you it's really dark.
You can see every star in the sky.
It's just, I don't know.
I've never, it's never, I've never lived in a place where the sky was really that clear.
because it's the desert. There's no clouds. And I live in Washington now, so there's always clouds.
But it's out in the middle of nowhere, and the sky is just really clear. You can see all the stars.
So I'm walking along with this other staff member, and we're talking. I have no idea what we were talking about.
And then for whatever reason, we stopped and we looked up. And I don't know why we did that, but we did.
And there were three lights in the sky, and they were very, very far away.
So, you know, we could tell immediately that it wasn't planes or a plane.
At the time, I thought it was one, I thought it was one aircraft, and that's where these lights were coming from.
But then the three lights moved away from each other.
And so that was very strange.
It was like, wait a minute.
And we were both looking at us.
We were like, what is that?
Because they moved away from each other.
So unless it was like an aircraft that was like stretching, I don't know.
I don't know of any aircraft that does that.
It just didn't make any sense.
So then we knew at that point that we were looking at three separate aircrafts or whatever we were seeing in the sky.
So at this point, we're just kind of standing there and we're not really saying anything.
And at least I don't remember that we were saying anything.
And then all of a sudden, the lights go back into a triangular formation and they just take off across the sky.
And we're like, okay.
And I don't remember what we said.
I don't think we said like, I just don't, we didn't say anything of significance.
I remember the feeling that I had that was like, oh my goodness, like what, what did I just see?
It was like, it was like confusion, basically.
And we just started walking.
And back to, we were walking.
Actually, we started making our way towards the camp, which where the kids were, which is where we were going in the first place.
So as we came up to the clearing where the kids were, a few of the kids came running up, and I remember one of them came.
And these are like teenagers.
And they're like teenagers from the inner city kids that are there because they had committed serious crimes.
Some of them, some of them very serious.
And one of the kids came up and he was like, Miss Dee, did you see that?
UFO. And I'm like, yes. And the other kids were like, did you see it? Do you see that UFO across the sky?
And I'm like, yes. And there was just like a feeling of a little bit of excitement in the camp. But to be very honest, it wasn't like what you would think where people would just be like, I don't even know, like, freaking out about it. They really weren't. It was it was like, it was like, it was like, the
this really subdued feeling of just like, wow, like what did we just see?
And also, you know, no matter, I think what it is is that, you know, no matter what we saw,
we were still in this situation where these kids were incarcerated and we were working with them.
And it was a very difficult situation.
And so there was this feeling of like, well, we just saw a UFO in the sky.
But it doesn't, it doesn't really change our situation.
And so it's interesting because, you know, one of the questions that you ask is like,
how did you feel about it?
And I have to be honest and say like, I, I really have wanted to and been curious.
I have wanted my whole life to see a UFO.
And I've always been curious about them.
but in this moment when we had actually seen one, I don't know how to describe how I felt about it because it was almost like, okay, yeah.
Like, okay, yeah, there was like a UFO in the sky.
And of course there was.
And that was kind of the feeling.
It wasn't anything like this big amazement where we were all just like freaking out all night.
night over it, it was like it was like it was always supposed to be there and we were supposed to
see it. And now we just have to get back to this difficult life that we were living at that time.
Looking back at it now and just thinking about the situation I was in because I will just say
that this camp that I was working at was absolutely a horrible place. And there was a lot of
abuse there. There was racism there. It was a terrible, terrible situation. I believe that they are
not there anymore, which is a good thing. But it was such a bad situation that there was always this
feeling that the staff or the people, not the staff, not the regular staff, but the people that
were running the place were constantly trying to dehumanize the kids. I mean, basically so that they
justify how they were being treated there.
And my job was to advocate for them, which was a very, very difficult job.
So now, looking back at it, it just really makes me feel their humanity even more than I did before,
because we were all in this situation, like we were all in this terrible situation where there were,
there were these very clear roles.
They were like the kids who, you know, we were supposed to control and, you know, their humanity was always being taken away.
And then there was a staff.
And they had like this real dominant position over the kids.
But ultimately, we were all human beings.
And just looking back at it, that's what it reminds me of.
It reminds me of our humanity that, you know, even though we were in this.
this little universe together where things were really awful and the roles were really,
really unjust.
We were still just little tiny humans on the earth looking up in the sky and seeing something
that we didn't understand.
So that's how I feel about it now, looking back.
Thank you, Ryan, for giving me a chance to tell my story and I love your podcast.
it makes me feel like I'm less alone in this world.
Thank you for inviting me to share my story.
My name is Ashley.
I'm 34 years old and I currently live in Ontario, Canada.
When this event took place in 1997, I was 11 years old and I lived with my family in Hamilton.
One night, I went to the corner store and as I stood at the crosswalk waiting for the light to change, I looked up at the sky.
I noticed that the sky was totally black and that there weren't any stars.
When I looked all the way up, that's when I saw these lights that immediately registered as being unnatural.
There were about five or six of them.
They were stationary, a little bit bigger than stars often color like a soft orange.
And they formed a very large half circle.
My best guess would be that I would be able to place my adult hand between each of these lights.
I had no idea what it was.
All I knew was that the longer I looked at it, the more terrified I felt.
So I ran across the street into the store and wandered around until I felt comfortable enough to leave.
I couldn't have been more than five minutes.
When I left and crossed the street, I made a point of stopping where I saw the lights and looking up, but the lights were gone.
My mom doesn't ever recall talking to me about it, and I guess I just forgot about it for a while.
I'd always been into ghosts and the paranormal when I was a kid, and any idea I had on UFOs at the time was based off of the odd story in a book that I could take out from the school library or watching the,
X files with my parents. That's until the internet came along and then I had even more access to
information to expand my interests. So one day in 2000, 2001, I was bored and started searching
for UFO photos. And I found this website about the famous Phoenix Light sighting that took place
in 1997. And when I got to the photos,
I just remember getting chills, because those photographs showed the exact same thing that I saw a few years prior.
And I remember just sitting there thinking about it, like, what are the odds that at 11 years old with no knowledge that the event in Phoenix took place?
Would I experience the same thing a couple of months later?
I have no doubts in my mind that I witnessed a UFO that night.
I wouldn't know how else to explain it.
Hello, Ryan. Ron Slotnick here, a loyal Patreon member and longtime follower of your work,
and I'm always inspired by the standout investigative work that you do
as a strong voice in our community for the rest of us,
who have not had the opportunity to become a prominent figure in the UFO-UAP community.
So thank you very much for the role that you play on all of our behalf.
So I appreciate this honor and privilege to lend my voice for once to tell of my encounters and share with you and the rest of our clan.
As an introduction, I'm originally from a little town called Windsor, Ontario, Canada, which is basically like a suburb of Detroit, Michigan, USA.
I grew up in this town until I moved to Michigan in my 40s.
No, nothing really big comes out of Windsor and thus for making it a little difficult to find a lot of UFO reports from there.
However, as you well know, UFOs don't really know political boundaries, nor do they care about political boundaries.
My first encounter was when I was extremely young, so this first account is less detailed than my second account will be.
However, it was no less real to me, and I do have some memories of it.
So Windsor, being that small town I mentioned, is overshadowed by Detroit's International Airport,
so we have a lot less air traffic on our local city's own airport.
That being said, one evening when the sun was nearly down, I must have been roughly, I don't know, five or six years old, a long time ago.
And I recall a bit of unrest around the neighborhood when a lot of people are on the street looking towards our local airport.
You could kind of see the runway in that from there.
And I recall that there was an elongated oval, yellowish metallic object that seemed to be kind of hovering over the runway.
higher than the air traffic controller tower, but not too much higher.
Probably about the size of a couple of 747 jets end to end.
So it's definitely something that shouldn't be there.
It doesn't belong there.
At this point in my life, you know, there was no internet or Mufon or any easy way to report it.
And a lot of the neighbors were pointing and talking about it with some fear and worry.
and of course there was no quick snap smartphones able to take pictures
so we were at a loss for any way of really recording this very well
but you know it was just about people calling like local news or someone at the airport
trying to get information they said all they said was we're looking into it
but you could see this thing was hovering in a way it was kind of preventing planes from
landing or taking off on that my parents were there as well so my father
had ushered me into the house before I could really see too much other than what I had saw.
And it seemed to have been hovering there for like several minutes, probably 10 or 20 minutes.
I never really found out the outcome of that because like I said, my parents kind of ushered
me into the house and then they went back in.
We haven't really discussed it ever since then.
But my parents have always been open believers and have always been into sci-fi and that
because I think that definitely sparked something in them as well.
But like I said, we don't really talk about it.
My second incident is a lot more clear and personal to me, and I fully recounted.
Also, I got to say that after listening to years of your podcast and various witness encounters
and documented stories and videos, there's handfuls of common types of themes of accounts,
but I haven't come across one with the same matched unique trait,
and I've always searched to see if somebody had seen something similar.
So, yeah, I find this one particularly interesting because of that.
So when I was about 13 years old, we were living in a different house from my earlier account.
Behind my house was a really large field, and it was underdeveloped, even though we were in the city.
On the other side of the field, kind of kiddie corner, was a 7-Eleven store.
And in that day and age, it wasn't uncommon for parents to send their kids to buy them cigarettes.
Yeah, I feel old.
I know.
So my father would regularly send him, send me on runs to grab him cigarettes.
And since, you know, obviously I always had my head in the clouds in the night sky there,
I would always be gazing looking for something somewhere in the skies as I would go along this long walk through the field.
And it always felt like a split second with my mind racing.
So on this one particular night, when I was more than halfway across the field on one of my cigarette missions,
I'm looking at a wide field of stars, and I notice a seemingly plain star that had not moved previously.
And then suddenly it started moving and drifting across the sky in a slow, rhythmic fashion,
sort of how you would see like a modern-day satellite in orbit.
That's kind of how it looked.
So after a few seconds of that constant motion, it sped up a bit.
And then after it seemed to traverse about a quarter of the sky,
and then it would stop suddenly again.
It was now hovering motionless in place, and I completely stopped walking as my gaze was frozen on this little star dot.
I noticed there was no noticeable sounds or anything like that, you know, a kind of common theme.
I didn't feel anything strange.
It was just, it just seemed like a star that wasn't moving, then it was moving, and then it wasn't moving again, which is very peculiar.
So then staring at it after about, oh, 10.
15 seconds of nothing happening.
I'm still locked in on it,
but then I saw the strangest thing.
I saw what appeared to be
a beam of faint white light
slowly kind of growing out of the star
looking, well, the star looking dot.
And that light kind of reminded
me of how like a lightsaber
turns on. So it just kind of
grew, you know, coming out of that dot.
And when it was about, I'll say,
an inch long from my perspective on the ground,
against the length of the sky, the entire beam then started to spin around the central dot,
and as it spun, the colors oscillated through all the various colors of the rainbow,
but like in no particular order of color, it seemed to be just kind of random,
as it spun around and around and around.
So it spun around this dot about, oh, a dozen-ish times or so,
and then it abruptly stopped again,
and then slowly retracted back into the center of the dot,
like somebody turned off the lightsaber.
So at this point, I'm just completely in shock and awe and frozen in place.
You know, about five, ten more seconds pass with nothing happening.
And that same familiar ending to most sightings happened.
That dot just shot off across the sky at like Warp 20 and it was gone.
That was the end of it.
I was completely frozen in place for like a couple of minutes after that,
just scanning the sky and feeling a little bit shaken.
with a mixed of feelings of both fear and amazement.
And then I finally came to my senses.
Once my head came back to ground level,
and with the cigarette money in my hand still,
I just turned around and beeline it back home,
came crashing through the door and threw the money at my father
as I ran past him screaming,
get your own damn cigarettes!
Ran into my room and slammed the door.
My father was obviously pretty taken by surprise by that,
you know, a little WTF moment
that was definitely not my name,
normal behavior, especially for a 13-year-old.
So you can imagine he wanted to know what the hell was going on.
And I told him, he kind of listened and didn't make too much out of it.
But I know in his heart he knows it was something.
Looking back, you know, it seems funny now, but at the time I was pretty shaken by it.
And it definitely solidified my curiosity and interest for a very long time until I find those answers.
But needless to say, I didn't go get cigarettes for him for a long time after that night.
Based on my life's experiences and the curiosities that were sparked inside me by everything I've seen and experienced and read up on, my feelings are pretty solid in the matter.
Very similar to your own from listening to your account and knowing your own views, Ryan, from many podcasts that you've shared.
you know as as we all well know there are you know billions and billions of stars out there and
it's mathematically impossible that we're the only ones you know i want to keep religion out of
this but you know religion suggests that you know the god created the universe the heavens and
the earth and that it should be all there to kind of service us but i got to admit i'm i'm not a
strong believer in that philosophy i'm very much into
astrophysics and understanding the metaphysical nature of the universe and the cosmos.
And whether or not I feel that we're being visited by aliens in spacecrafts versus our UFOs or UAPs,
as they're called now, simply higher technology from foreign adversaries, which I genuinely
believe is not the case, that any current Earth-based adversary would have that kind of level
of technology far ahead of us.
But, you know, this is overlapping that
all the things that have happened the last month or so
about the UAP Task Force report,
which we won't go into.
Could it be, you know, interdimensional,
could it be time travelers, you know,
us visiting ourselves from the future,
looking back, anything is possible.
I'm not going to sit there and put that hat on and say,
yep, UFOs are aliens,
but I'm certainly not going to discount it either.
Is there a current earth-based technology concept that's proven that shows faster than light travel, which would be required to traverse the distances even to our closest neighbor star at like four light years away?
Not currently.
There's certainly philosophical concepts, astrophysical ideas and constructs.
But I do believe that considering the universe is crucial.
created and expanded out, that there could definitely be civilizations that were developed,
you know, millennias ahead of us, that may have had a heck of a lot longer to develop technology
that could possibly have allowed them to unlock a way to travel this far.
But on the other hand, if not, then it's also feasibly impossible to suggest that people
from another world could have reached us in their lifetimes, unless it was, you know, drone automated
probes like we've got the Voyager probe sent out, you know, a millennia ago by the time it reached us
with a civilization that's long gone. Regardless, those are my feelings on the topic, and that's
where I stand on everything. Thanks for giving me this opportunity, and thank you very much, Ryan.
Keep fighting the good fight on all of our behalfs.
Hey, Ryan, I appreciate the opportunity to
kind of tell what I saw in.
In 2018,
BC, before COVID,
I was out with my family on Halloween night.
We've got a, you know,
a fairly good-sized neighborhood.
There's a lot of families, a lot of kids.
There's probably 100 people walking around,
you know, in the neighborhood.
And as we're approaching one of the houses,
my son's running to the front door
to go to get some candy and all that good
stuff and I noticed
you know two gentlemen standing off
the side and they're looking up in the sky
kind of looking around a tree
looking over the roof of the
house like they're just looking at something
and I can hear one of them
say you know oh it's you know look at that
and da da da da so super curious
want to know what's happening I walk up
you know what are you all seeing
the guy says man
you know there I think there's a UFO
in the sky and
I'm like where
immediately
and he kind of points
to the western sky
and he says you know
if you can look straight ahead
you see that bright bright star
and I look up
I see the star
he goes look to the left of it
so I look to the left of the star
and there's a white glowing object
in the sky
hovering
and then
like right after that
it just starts to move
through the sky
from this west to north
and it didn't make a sound.
Solid white.
Kind of stopped and then started back up moving from like a dead stop to start.
We watched it for a minute, maybe a full minute.
It was unlike anything I've ever seen.
We live in a military town in Florida.
We see planes.
We see helicopters.
You know, I've seen the Starlink satellites.
I've seen the ISS.
It wasn't any of these things.
The most amazing part of it is when it was all over, and as it was sinking in,
I realized that I didn't reach for my phone.
I couldn't even think that fast enough.
And so I get that now.
I get why we don't see these pictures of things.
because as soon as you see it, you're so focused on trying to figure out what it is, process it,
you don't even think about capturing it.
And so that was the biggest takeaway, I think, for me, as amazing as it was to see the object and as cool as it was to see it,
the thing that stuck with me is the fact that I couldn't get it documented because my brain just did not work that way.
So I get that now.
And that really helped me because, you know,
Now when I hear things and I hear criticism and I hear skeptics and, you know, the question is,
well, why don't we see pictures and videos?
Well, that's why folks.
It's just not, it doesn't work like that.
You know, it just does not work like that.
That's it, man.
It was one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
I truly hope I get to see another one.
And that's it, man.
I appreciate the time.
And thanks for everything you do.
Hi, my name's Randy.
I'm 45 years old.
I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, but the event I'm going to tell you about took place
almost 26 years ago when I still lived in my hometown of Palm Springs, California.
I first recounted this event to Ryan back in 2018, but I figured it was finally time to get it
on the record. So for some setup here, it was Halloween night, 1995. It was technically the early
morning of November 1st. I driven to L.A. for a concert on Halloween with three of my friends,
and we were headed home. It was close to 3 a.m., and we were about 20.
20 miles outside of Palm Springs heading east on Interstate 10.
We were in Cabazon.
That's the location of the world famous life-sized dinosaurs that you'll see now and again on
movies and on TV.
That was the point when I first noticed the light in the sky ahead of us.
We were still miles away from it, but I could see this light.
It was directly ahead of us.
It was a bit below the top of the windshield, so it was in my line of sight.
So it first caught my attention about this light was the brightness.
It was directly ahead of us.
It looked like stadium lights or a large airliner coming into land.
And now there's no stadium in that part of the desert outside of Palm Springs.
There wasn't at that time and there isn't now.
There were no large light poles with lights on top of them this call.
There was also no major airport.
Palm Springs Airport that was to the southeast of where this was.
There was a small municipal landing strip that was due west of this location.
but an airplane of this size, at least from what I could tell,
would not be able to land at this airfield.
So basically, there was this large light in the sky.
It wasn't just the brightness of this light.
It was the quality of the light and the fact that it was changing.
That really held my interest.
Now, when I say the quality of the light,
it was very bright, but it was also cold-looking.
It was this cold, bluish-white.
And in addition to this, it was cycling between what I say,
are low beams and high beams. So basically dimming and intensifying at a consistent pace.
Dem bright. Dem bright. It would stay dim for maybe a five count, get bright for maybe another
five seconds, and so on. When the light was at its brightest, it almost looked like three
horizontal diamonds in the sky. They bled out horizontally, almost like lens flare in the
JJ Heard's Star Trek movies. I didn't wear glasses at the time, but I could still see this
very intensely bright light. The other thing that cut my attention was the fact that this light
didn't seem to be moving towards us or away from us or moving it all, in fact. We were moving
towards it, so we were getting closer, but it was just staying in the same place. So after taking
this in for 30 seconds or a minute or so, I pointed out to my best friend, Paul, who was in
the passenger seat and was awake. My other two friends were.
in the backseat passed out. Again, it was 3 a.m. And we'd just been to a concert that night.
So talking with Paul, he and I thought for a moment that this could be maybe the light on the
summit station of the Palm Springs Rail Tramway, which is at the top of Mount San Jacinto.
But that's not actually visible from the eastern side of the mountain range, which is where we
were. So we kept our eye on this thing. We weren't really talking about it that much, just sort of,
let's keep an eye on this thing. We kept driving as normal. We were maybe driving a little bit
under the speed limit because we were just focusing on this strange, motionless light in the sky ahead
of us that we were, you know, fairly quickly approaching. So as we got closer and closer,
maybe just a couple of minutes away from the light, which was getting larger because it was
staying in the same place, but we were getting closer to it. We slowed even more because we needed
to take the turn off for Highway 111 that takes you into Palm Springs. So at this point,
we were about 10 miles down the highway, 10 miles east on the highway from where we first spotted the
light and rapidly approaching it. At this point, myself, my friend Paul, we were we were both
experiencing and communicating to each other this legitimate sense of disbelief. And I would say awe
and shock. But I'd have to say, you know, I didn't feel any fear. I wasn't anxious. I was just
completely rapt attention towards this object, whatever it was, because it was so unusual to see
something this bright, with this quality of light, and just sitting there in the sky.
If anything, I was beside myself at this point, just trying to kind of process what I was seeing.
So we were looking at something that was emitting the strange otherworldly light.
And not only that, but it was stuck just a couple hundred feet in the air above a rest stop on the side of the freeway.
It's actually called the Whitewater rest stops.
There's one on each side of the freeway.
It was on the southern side of the freeway.
And so when I say stuck, I mean, it's like whatever this was was sitting on a shelf in the sky or on a pole.
So like I said, it could kind of be described as looking like an intensely bright stadium light from like an NFL stadium.
It wasn't moving an inch, and that was something you could tell from the direction of the lights as they dimmed and brightened.
They looked like they were feacing in the same direction the entire time.
Now, at this point, I should say that we weren't alone on the freeway.
I recall that we were moving slower than the rest of the traffic because we were actually looking at this thing.
There were a handful of other cars on the road.
It was 3 a.m. again, on Halloween night.
But there definitely was other traffic.
It didn't really seem that anyone else was slowing down or noticing this light, but someone must have seen what we saw.
But if they did, they weren't reacting to it.
So as we approached the turnoff to Highway 111, there's a ramp that leads up and over a flood basin before heading southeast and then east out to Palm Springs.
So because of this ramp, we were able to climb about 20 feet up towards the object and got an unobstructed view of it there sitting in the sky.
And so it was hovering, sitting, whatever you want to say, in the sky above this rest stop location.
Again, about a couple hundred feet up in the air, looking, you know, kind of straight up and an angle towards it.
I'd practically taken my foot off the gas at this point.
We were just coasting at the top of this off ramp, looking to the left at this object.
So it was at this point that the object began to move towards us.
It moved at an angle down towards the southwest towards us.
It moved over the highway, over our car.
We'd rolled down our windows.
There was absolutely no sound outside, except maybe a little bit of wind.
I craned my head out the driver's side window and looked up at the object.
My friend Paul was doing the same on the passenger's side.
What I saw a couple hundred feet above us now were three pale lights of the same cold quality
that I'd seen from a distance.
But they were arranged in an equilateral triangle, and they were silently drifting across the highway
above our car that was coasting.
So I could tell that these lights were at the points of an actual object, a physical object,
because I could make out the object's triangular shape against the starlit sky.
So it was a crystal clear night.
The skies of the desert are filled with stars, and there was some moonlight.
I was mostly able to make out the shape because the object was covering the stars as it crept over us,
but also because its surface was so much darker than the night sky around it.
I can only describe the quality of the surface by comparing it to something like Vantablack,
which is the darkest black that we've been able to create.
It essentially reflected no visible light
to the point that the lights on the object
weren't revealing any details of its surface.
If you've seen an airplane flying at night
with its landing lights on,
you know what it looks like when the light reflects off the fuselage,
reflects off the wings.
It very clearly illuminates the aircraft.
In this case, it didn't.
And so there were no visible scenes or bolts or markings,
things that you should have been able to see
at such a close distance.
This thing was just a void in the sky,
guy, perhaps guessing here, 50 to 80 feet on each side, with these cold blue lights at each corner.
So the object passed over us to the southwest. My friend Paul lost sight of it. He told me it
looked like it blinked out. It was just gone. It was around this point that our two friends in the
backseat were finally waking up due to all the shouting and sound that my friend Paul and I were
making. So they hadn't actually seen anything. I kept driving and I dropped my friends off,
then headed home. Along the way, Paul and I recounted in detail what had just taken place to our
friends who'd been sleeping. They were basically both incredulous about everything. They thought maybe
it was a plane or a helicopter, despite the fact that it was so early in the morning, the low altitude,
the location, it just didn't make sense to us. So when I finally got home around 4 a.m., I woke up my
parents to tell them what I'd seen, and they seemed somewhat interested, but not that concerned.
I chalked up their lack of excitement to the fact that their son had just woken them up at 4 a.m.
tell them he'd seen a UFO. But my dad was into the subject. We used to watch the X-Files together.
My mom had seen some strange things from many a night spent sitting on a patio out in the desert.
So I went to bed still thinking about what we'd seen. I remember my overriding thought at the time
was that if we'd seen a quote-unquote real UFO that what else could be real? What else out there
that we'd been told didn't exist or couldn't exist, could actually exist. And that's a thought
that's been with me ever since. I've been interested in UFOs since a really young age.
I've always loved science fiction, always fascinated by tales of UFOs from shows like In Search of.
One of the defining moments of my childhood was the release of close encounters of the third kind, which absolutely captivated me.
But to say that this event has stuck with me would be a massive understatement.
I think about it practically every day and has driven me to study the subject, although I wouldn't say that it's to a level of a dedicated researcher yet.
Nevertheless, I'd classify this as a true life-changing event.
My friend Paul and I discuss it regularly, and we've traded theories over.
over the years, neither of us is convinced that it was truly otherworldly, but we do believe that
it wasn't technology that existed in the civilian world in 1995 or at any point since. There was
zero movement when it sat in the sky for 15 to 20 minutes, as we observed it before passing
under it, or it passing over us. It didn't make any sound, it didn't have any downwash like a
helicopter. If it had been some sort of lighter than aircraft or some sort of military dirigible
like we've seen in subsequent years, it surely would have drifted some.
but it was just completely fixed in the sky.
We've also talked about the fact that if this were some true anti-gravitic technology,
that you'd probably need to draw upon a lot of energy to make it work.
So nuclear, or maybe something even more exotic,
that could pose a danger to the nearby city or the motorist below.
It's basically civilians.
That's just something we're not sure humans are really capable of,
given the dangers of fission reactors and events like Chernobyl.
So to this day, I remain certain that what we saw was,
no traditional aircraft that's ever been in the public eye, from its flight characteristics
to the quality of its lighting to the surface material I described. I've spent nearly 26 years since
that night searching the skies, hoping for another chance to see what I saw again or something like
it. I reported my sighting to the National UFO Reporting Center a few years after the event,
partly to ensure that I didn't forget any details. Unfortunately, I seem to have been the only person
who experienced this event and reported it at least. If anyone's had a similar experience, I encourage you
to share your story with Ryan and the world.
If you'd like to get in touch with me
because you've had a similar experience
or maybe we're even there that night
and saw the same thing that I did,
I'd love to hear from you,
and Ryan has my details.
Thanks so much for the opportunity
to finally share my story with others, Ryan,
and for creating this amazing platform
where others can do the same.
Keep watching the skies.
Okay, this is Ronnie LeBlank
from Expedition Bigfoot and Paranormal Coddardac Camera.
some of you may know I've had a lot of UFO experiences since I was a kid and my wife has as well
and so last night this is the morning after last night June 5th 945-ish we were in our garage
and we were talking and I'll mention something in a moment but we walked out and we're
walk into the house and I looked up above the roof of the house and there I saw it was unmistakable
two UFOs unidentified flying objects one was red one was green and not like a flying saucer
but almost like an orb that was kind of shape shifting and changing but these things were
chasing each other in the sky up and down almost like dolphins in the water
And I just got this thought of like thunderbirds or almost a biological creature more than a craft seeing this.
So my wife is seeing this. She's trying to get her a phone. And I didn't want to film this at all. I was just experiencing this.
They moved across and passed some trees so that we couldn't really see them. But they were low enough and made no sound, low enough that you could see them and know that this was not.
a drone. This was not a plane. This was straight up UFOs. So what often happens in my experience
is a couple of things. I started feeling euphoric, like just super excited watching this because I knew
this was something extraordinary. But also when I have these sightings, typically there seems to be
almost like this, you know, I live really close to Lemester State Forest in Monsterland,
which my books are based on with all this strange activity. But when we have a UFO
sighting like this, typically there's another one or several others that come in after this one
in the same trajectory. So I started to talk to my wife, like, let's look where this came from.
It came from east to west in my estimation. And sure enough, another one came. And this
one was like this bluish kind of green. It did the same thing. It wasn't like up and down, like kind of
changing direction like this, this last two. But it moved in the same way, silent. It was spinning.
And you can hear me at the beginning of the video. That was me talking about that, that second UFO coming in.
It was spinning and like almost changing shape. It was, and again, it went the same way where it went
be on some trees and I couldn't get it unless I went deep in the backyard. And you can see we have
some different lights out in the front of the driveway. It creates some light pollution, but you could
still see this. So then my wife finally gets her camera up and we're looking in the path,
waiting for another one to come. And I could feel like it was coming, which sounds crazy.
But anyways, here it comes and you can see it moving. And then,
this one moved very differently, just like the other ones, but differently than any type of plane
or anything. And you could see planes flying by. We could see those. It was very distinctive what a
plane was, what a drone is. I know that stuff. So seeing this, and it flew right over our heads,
and the video really doesn't give it any justice. I just, it was green. Okay. So,
the crazy thing is a minute or so before these sightings had occurred.
As we're sitting in our garage, my wife was touched three times on her leg, like a ghost.
Like she felt like something was in the garage with us.
And I just kind of chuckled and laughed.
And we're sitting close to each other.
I just kind of laughed about it.
But this happened three times.
And isn't it significant?
that we saw four UFOs three separate times, one after another.
At this same time, we, you know, blown away, one of the most amazing things,
if not the most amazing thing I've ever seen in my life.
And that video does not give it frigging justice.
But after this had occurred and we're outside and we're just like blown away,
my head's spinning.
The energy was off the charts and what I was feeling.
It was so exciting.
I wasn't afraid.
It was exciting.
My son, who's 10 years old, was in the house, and he said he felt a presence behind him.
As we were kind of like talking and stuff, he could hear us from outside as the UFO setting was happening.
So I find that extremely significant.
And I also find it funny that my wife went grocery shopping and picked up a deck of cards.
And as I was grabbing the...
the trash.
One of these, this deck of cards came out and it was called Stargazer on it.
And it's just kind of funny.
I always look at signs and synchronicities.
And this was one of those things.
And here we are.
We have the UFO report that just came out.
The government saying,
these are not our technology.
That's confirmed.
Great.
Step forward.
But again,
they're not going to say that these things are alien.
And I can tell you right now what I saw.
was not human. It was not a physical craft in a way. Like, if it was, we were seeing
portions of it, like, it just seemed to shape shift and change and seem to be more biological
than a physical craft. I'm sure it was a craft of some. The way it moved was just
incredible. There's no way a plane could sustain these movements.
Like I said, it looked like, and I describe it in the video, it moves like a bird.
It seemed to kind of like float and flutter and kind of change direction and move very just animalistic.
But I did file a Mufon report last night within 20 minutes of this as it was fresh.
But there's these other details that I know will get leave out of the report, but they lead into the UFO sighting, having this paranormal experience.
Oh, and by the way, I am getting back into meditating and I'm focusing on remote viewing.
So earlier in the day, I did have a literally short five-minute meditation session trying to bring them in.
And I've done this before a couple years ago at Cape Cod and had orange orbs come in, but I've never had craft like this.
So now I am just super intrigued. I did not want to go to sleep.
And now I'm like on fire.
But yeah, there's definitely a spiritual, a paranormal, there's a spiritual and a paranormal kind of
connection to all of this because of what happened prior, the feeling of a presence
not only for my wife, but my son.
As before this happened.
And weirdly enough, the third UFO that came through that looked very similar to the fourth one
kind of different coloring.
I got the feeling it was the same one,
kind of coming in again to show us.
And my wife had that same feeling.
Interesting stuff.
But there was a report that someone saw something a couple weeks ago
in the same vicinity.
And this was right in front of the big dipper.
And that's where they said they had their sighting as well.
So I find that very, very interesting.
Thanks, Ryan.
Hey, Ryan.
My name's Jazz.
You and I already know each.
other for your latest installment of witness testimony. I decided to talk about
something that happened very recently. I went personally. I've always been
interested in the whole UAP topic. I've been writing about it for years, but it's
always been sort of hypothetical, a topic of great interest. And that started to
change last year. In November of last year, my wife and I had two sightings that were not
really very conclusive. It happened in a period of one week. We saw a couple of things and filmed them
and put them up on YouTube. Not really conclusive. One of them was sort of an orb of different
changing colors. Happened over a ridge to the east of our house. The second one, my wife,
filmed that was mortgusting. It looked kind of like a really big triangle.
in the dark with some weird lights on it.
But again, nothing too conclusive.
That really changed this year.
I had two sightings personally
that really shook up my entire view of the whole subject.
In June of 2021, third week of June,
I was out on the back deck in my house,
middle of the day, beautiful day.
blue sky, a few fluffy clouds.
And I was watching two planes from a local airport going overhead, which happens every day because we're not too far from a regional airport, going east-west.
But underneath them, well below them and below cloud level, I suddenly saw something else.
it was a white oblong shape
that
everybody who follows the subject
already knows I immediately
well within a couple of seconds I thought
holy cow that's a tick-tack
because it had no wings
nothing else it was just silently
gliding along
and I immediately reached for my pocket
to grab my phone to get a video
thereupon realizing that my phone, which had been at like 15% or something,
was in my den recharging.
I went crashing through the house,
screaming for my wife to grab her phone and run out front
to catch it on the other side as it went by.
And she did, later telling me she was worried that she was afraid the house was on fire or something.
We got out front and she said that,
he momentarily saw, might have seen something white in the sky, but didn't catch anything else.
I got 19 minutes of beautiful footage of a blue sky with nothing in it. It had disappeared.
But before I crashed at the house, I mean, it was there. It was very clear. It was obviously just this capsule-shaped thing that was going across the sky.
That disappeared.
that had a big impact on us because it sort of sent me on this negative spiral of being out there all the time
watching and wanting her to be out there when she was home, you know, and nothing else happened.
Until the past week and at the time of this recording, we're talking about the beginning of August of 2021.
And I was once again out of my back deck.
and the exact same thing showed up in the sky.
There were no planes at the time,
but it was, again, this oblong shape
that was traveling from west to east,
a little ways to the north of my house,
you know, pretty much right above us.
And this time I had my phone, and I pulled it out,
and I got...
It took probably five, six seconds to register
and then get the phone out and start recording.
But I did manage.
to get three to four seconds recorded that a videographer took for me and got the source code
from my phone and it was once again it was this object that looked like a tick-tack and it had been
moving but by the time I got the phone out and the videographer confirmed this and it just stopped
and it was just hanging there in the sky and
And I managed to film it for, like I said, three to four seconds.
And while I still had the phone pointed at it and recording it, it disappeared.
It didn't fly away.
It looked, to me, it doesn't really show up on what there is in the video.
But visually, it looked like it had started to elongate a bit, like it became a bit longer.
I don't know.
That's just my memory.
and then it just, in less than a second it just faded out, it vanished.
So that was twice I saw these objects sailing across the sky
that have no explanation for me.
And prior to this, I was always interested in, as I said, in the topic,
and it's like people see all these wild things,
and it's really crazy and fun to talk about.
but it was a significant moment
and has really changed things in our house
and in our life because it goes from a hypothetical discussion
to the point where now it's like
what was that?
Nothing should be able to do that.
It seemed impossible
and it really has changed my outlook on this.
So since you like doing these shows and people sharing their experiences, this was a, in a significant way, I will say a somewhat life-changing experience because I'm no longer looking at it as, well, what are these people talking about?
And it's like, oh, I get it.
I say, okay, and now it's real.
Doesn't mean I know what the answers are.
I don't know what it was, where it came from.
but that was something that definitely shouldn't have been there.
It shouldn't have been doing what it was doing.
And it's really open my eyes in a number of ways.
Thanks for doing what you do, man.
Hi, Ryan. Thanks for allowing us to share our stories with you.
I've personally experienced two separate sightings of the same red orb in my childhood.
Once when I was very young and once again as a teenager,
both instances occurred on the same property in rural Minnesota.
My first experience was when I was a very young.
about five or six years old. It was maybe nine or ten o'clock at night, and my mother and baby
sister were sleeping in my parents' room, but I was still awake to wait it up for my father to come
home from work. It was either late spring or summer, and I was watching out the window for my
father's vehicle to come up the county road that leaves to our driveway. The lights were off
because I didn't want to wake up my mother, so I was standing in a completely dark room,
looking out over a completely dark landscape. I remember not being afraid, been immediately
curious about this large red orb that appeared to ascend out of a distant field.
This window faces roughly northeast and the area is so rural that there are no city lights whatsoever,
just farmers fields and woods. We have the most beautiful clear skies in rural Minnesota
and an immensely gorgeous view of the Milky Way at the right night, at the right time of year.
I usually stayed up as late as I could for my father to come home, so this wasn't a strange thing
to wait by the window where I could see the road. But I had never witnessed a ring.
red orb before. It didn't have a definitive shape besides vaguely round, but it definitely didn't
come up over the horizon. This red light really did seem large and bright and ascending out of a
farmer's field at minimum a few miles away. They moved relatively quickly too and steady as it
went up into the sky. It may have only taken a minute or two to completely disappear at the
steady pace that was traveling. Again, I wasn't afraid, but I do recall how vivid the experience was
watching this large red light while standing at the window.
One specific thing about this encounter that I remember telling to my father when he arrived home a short time later
was that I thought it could have been an air balloon because it seemed to glow from within.
It didn't vary course. It didn't change speeds or colors rapidly.
It didn't change speed or colors at all. It just seemed to drift up completely straight into the sky
until it disappeared entirely. I waited for that orb for a very long time after that,
but I didn't see it again until I was a teenager in the early 2000s.
My sister and I didn't want to keep sharing a bedroom,
but my room downstairs in the basement wasn't finished yet,
so I slept on the couch the majority of one summer.
And I really liked it, actually,
because I could look out of a large picture window facing east
while I was resting on the couch.
Again, no city lights, just farmers' fields and strips of woods,
with one county route to which our driveway was attached.
No light, absolutely no light whatsoever besides starlight.
In this particular night, I was almost
asleep. Still looking out the window, though, when I saw a large red orb again begin to ascend
out of a tree line just a few miles away from the house. This time, I was really spooked. Over the years,
since I saw that first red orb, my father and I would talk about it sometimes and wonder what
that could have been. The rest of the house was asleep, but I bolted off the couch and went to wake up
my father, who wasn't thrilled about being woken up, but I knew I sounded panicked enough that he did
come into the living room to take a look out the window. I remember being worried that he wouldn't
come fast enough to see the light before it disappeared. In the time it took between when I first
saw it coming out of the tree line to when I got back to the window, after waking up my father,
it had ascended quite high already. We watched together for the minute or so that I continued
to ascend before it completely disappeared. We watched it in silence, and it was a really special
moment in a way to see this with my father. The sighting became kind of a family joke, though, in a
good way, because his reaction, after the orb finally disappeared in our moment of shared silence,
was, I don't know what that was.
Go to sleep.
So we all laugh about it to this day that here I had this kind of shocking encounter with the red orb again,
years after my first sighting.
And my father's reaction was, go to sleep.
After I don't know what that was.
My father knows pretty much everything about the property I grew up on,
because he grew up on the same land.
He knows the woods and the fields better than anyone else in this area,
and he could probably find his way home in the dark from miles away.
He's seen it all.
and here was a thing he didn't know how to explain.
I didn't bother him the way it bothered me, though.
He went back to bed, and I went back to the couch,
and I know I did not sleep the rest of the night.
And to the day I moved out and moved away,
I watched for that red orb.
I still check up on the reports from that region once in a while,
and red orbs and black triangles are apparently pretty common sightings out there.
The second encounter felt very different from my first,
even though the red orb was practically identical in both situations.
I think I saw the Red Orb with a true sense of childlike wonder the first time,
that here was this strange thing that it never happened before and didn't happen again until years later.
The second sighting of the Red Orb was frightening.
I was legitimately afraid of it,
because I think I had spent years wondering if it would come back,
and then there it was unexpectedly.
Because of living in the country and loving stargazing,
I had read plenty of books in the library about stars and planets
and knew how certain things moved in the sky.
If you watch the sky every night, you know how fast or slow normal things are and what to expect throughout the seasons.
This was definitely unlike any star or planet I was used to watching, and I looked out at that sky nearly every night of my childhood.
I don't think it helped that I had been rereading and rereading and rereading the same book about UFOs as a kid, years after my first sighting, but well before my second.
And my father had asked me, what if they're not here to do good things, these things in the UFOs?
people don't always have good experiences with them.
And I think that shifted my perspective, that then influenced my reaction when I did finally see that red orb again as a teenager.
My grandfather, well before I was born, allegedly saw a strange object emerge from a field relatively close by.
He was looking out over the woods after coming back from the fields in the early evening and saw something he couldn't explain.
Once my father pointed out the part of the property, my grandfather thought this thing emerged from, I couldn't walk by it or drive by it without thinking about it.
my father himself has shared some strange sightings he's had in his life on this property.
He said he didn't tell me when I was a child because he didn't want to scare me.
They're not my stories to tell, but at least I'm assured I'm not the only member of my family to see things we couldn't explain.
Thank you for the opportunity to share my stories, and thank you for the wonderful podcast we all enjoy.
My name is Abe Allie.
I've told this story a few times in my life, and this is the craziest thing that's ever happened to me,
so I want to share it with everybody and everything else in between.
So back in 1992, I was going to be 10 years old in December.
So I was nine years old at the time.
And it was a crisp fall evening.
I'm not sure if it was like an August or a September night.
But my dad used to like taking me and my brother for joyride.
in the evening.
And when I say the evening,
I'm talking about 9.30, 10.30 p.m.
And he always liked to, you know, just talk to us.
And, you know, because it was just me and my brother.
And, you know, I guess that was a good way of kind of spending time with dad.
But this one evening, my brother was sitting in the front seat with my dad.
And I was sitting in the backseat of the car.
And we took a ride down to Cape Split.
I'm from the great state of Maine, and Cape Split is right on the coast, Atlantic Ocean of Maine.
And this is where we were.
I grew up in a lobster fishing community.
So we were taking a ride, and we were parked right on the shoreline.
There was a turnout in Cape Split.
So we were sitting there in the car.
and I remember the radio turning static
and my father was looking out over the ocean
and there were three islands,
wide open ocean, bright night, no clouds
and my dad was telling us to look over to the left
because there were these two bright lights
coming up over the center island.
There were three islands.
these two bright lights were coming up over the islands
and the islands were about a mile away from us
and I still have the image in my head
my father had the window rolled down all the way
there was no sound
just obviously the waves crashing onto the rocks
and on the sand beach
a typical Atlantic Ocean sound
and I remember my brother starting to go crazy in the front seat
because I don't know if he was scared, I don't know what was going on
but he started like kicking and screaming and punching the window and all kinds of stuff
my dad was telling him calm down, calm down, you know, calm down.
Relax, relax, calm down, BJ, BJ.
That's his name.
That's my brother's name, BJ, Bernard Jr.
and the radio was static.
It wasn't static before this,
but when I looked and saw these two bright lights hovering over this island,
the radio went static.
So I was intrigued, nine years old,
what was I looking at?
What were we seeing?
Like I said, there wasn't any sound.
We sat there and watched these things for probably 10 to 15 minutes,
if, you know, as much as I can recall, this was back in 1992, so almost 30 years ago.
And I was looking, and it was like two amber lights.
They were bright.
But then they started going up the river, the Addison River, Pleasant River, I guess you could call it.
And so we decided to follow these things.
I remember looking down at the speedometer and we were going like 75 miles an hour.
And my dad couldn't catch up with these things.
So we were going pretty fast and these things were moving pretty good.
I remember seeing these bright lights through the trees when we were on the basin road.
I remember looking out and kind of seeing the lights through the trees every once in a
while. And then we came up to the Addison Bridge, which was about four miles away from Cape
Split, maybe five. And we came up to the Addison Bridge and parked there. I remember my father
opened the door and we were looking to our left because we knew these things were coming up
the river. So we were kind of waiting for them to see if we could.
can see anything else.
I remember sitting in the backseat, just looking down to the river.
A couple of minutes passed by, these lights were coming at us.
At this time, they're about a half a mile away from us.
I have photos, and I have documentation of this incident, which I'll tell you about after
I tell you my story.
There's another spin to this story that you guys are going to be very, very intrigued about,
and I can't believe it, actually.
What are the odds of this?
So let me finish my story first and then I'll get into that.
Here come these two lights coming towards us about a half a mile away.
They're about 250 feet off of the ground.
So that's not very high.
They were very low and there was no sound.
Zero sound whatsoever.
We were looking and all the sudden they got within, I would say maybe an eighth of a mile.
to us and all I remember was boom they were gone within a split second and I remember seeing
I'm getting goosebumps right now I'm seriously getting chills these things disappeared within a
second they were absolutely gone I heard a sonic boom they broke the soundberry both of them
were absolutely gone disappeared gone and I remember looking on
up, you could see like a streak of light go up when they disappeared up into the stars.
And I remember looking up at the stars and I couldn't tell which star was there and which one wasn't.
These things were gone in a matter of a miller second.
It was over.
It was unbelievable.
In my experience, I think about it all the time.
I don't know if anybody else has experienced the same thing that I'm.
I've experienced, but that's pretty
extraordinary.
It's crazy.
Now I'm going to sit here and I'm going to ask you something.
Were those human?
Were those alien?
Was that something our government
has created?
I don't know.
All I know is what I saw
and what I heard.
That's all I can tell you.
And I was nine years old.
And I remember it just like it was yesterday.
I remember talking to my dad and my brother about this incident.
My brother is still alive.
We talk about it every once in a while.
He remembers it very vividly like I do.
My dad since has passed.
He passed away in 2007.
But when I became an adult, I never really asked him about that night.
I wish I would have.
The other part that I wanted to tell you about is that I'm a wedding DJ.
And I was doing a wedding back in 2012.
And I had just posted a YouTube video of my experience.
I since now have deleted it.
I kind of wish I didn't.
But I just posted my experience on YouTube.
It was like a 10-minute video.
And I was going with the first.
flow at this wedding reception, doing all the announcements, entertaining the people with everything
that we were supposed to be doing. And I had a gentleman come up to me. And what are the odds of this?
I had a gentleman come up to me with his iPad in his hand and look at me and say, is this you?
And he had my YouTube video on his iPad. He was sitting at one of the tables with his iPad,
showing like eight people at his table,
showing them my video and me talking about my experience
down in Addison, Maine in Cape Split.
Later on, after talking with him,
the gentleman had a home down in Cape Split in 1992,
right next to where my car, while our car was parked,
the night we saw these lights come up over that island.
and he took pictures of these lights
and he has now sent those pictures to me
and I'm so unbelievably grateful
that I could have all of this stuff
and have this proof
because it's 100% true
what are the odds of somebody
capturing those pictures
the same night
me, my dad and my brother
was sitting there in a car watching these things.
This gentleman talked to me for over three hours on the phone one day
because he couldn't believe that other people had seen what he had been seeing that night.
He sent me the pictures.
And wow, I can't explain to you how they made me feel.
They bring me back to the night.
We were there.
Ladies and gentlemen, that is my story, a UFO sighting, and the experience I had back in 1992 when I was 9 years old.
I'm very grateful, very happy to share it with you guys.
Now, I want to thank you guys for sitting here and listening to my story.

This is Robbie.
I'm an Air Force veteran from 1970s.
I enjoyed my time in the Air Force.
I was stationed at Shepard Air Force Base, 1974,
1975 on a Saturday night around midnight myself and two other airmen friends of mine
we were sitting heading east we didn't have any money so we hadn't been drinking or
anything we were just southwest of Shepard Air Force Base low overcast skies we
could see the kind of the glow of Wichita Falls Texas off the bottom of the cloud
traveling
west to east
kind of over our right shoulder
two lights came into view
about as bright as the
1970s headlights
each one was about
bright as a headlight
traveling west to east
the first one
I'd say it was doing 100 miles an hour
a second one doing maybe 200 miles an hour
they were
I'm guessing
a thousand foot
above the ground. We didn't think much of it. It was common to see aircraft in the area,
especially around Shepard. We figured they might be T-38s. They travel together often.
Anyway, we didn't observe any strobes or nav lights, the red-green navs that the aircraft have.
Anyway, we just kind of watched it. We weren't thinking much of it, just talking. Well, the
instant that the second light, which was traveling approximately twice as fast as the lead light,
the instant that the second light caught up with the first, it became one light. Not any brighter,
about the same as a headlight, but also at that instant, it shot straight up vertical
from a zero vertical speed to thousands of miles an hour.
I've worked around all kind of supersonic aircraft and high-tech weapons.
I have never seen anything, and all the years traveled nearly that speed, nothing, nothing at all.
We talked about it briefly, kind of what is that, and then we didn't report it because we didn't know how to or where to.
And, you know, we were just young airmen.
since that time
I've been in aviation all my life
I've met other airmen
Air Force and Navy
that have similar
and some far more spectacular stories
than that
I do want to share that I was
stationed at Cannon
in 75
I went from Shepard to Cannon Air Force Base
in January
1976
I did not
I observed this, but I was friends with some of the security police, the Air Force security police, the SPs.
And they would come stay at my place.
I had a little place out the back gate, and, you know, we'd come and hang out.
We became fairly good friends.
Anyway, they observed in January 1976, UFOs on the flight line.
Spectacular.
My vision of it, as they described it, is like what we saw in.
close encounters of the third kind.
You know, that size, that kind of lights.
This was multiple nights.
It was reported by a Canon Air Force Base Command to Washington, D.C.
It made the local newspapers, you know.
But it was the stories of the SPs who actually witnessed it,
and it was their terror that I remember.
They got to heated debates.
some were angry that had been turned in because it was devastating to their career.
There was a horrible stigma about reporting these things.
My lifetime of dealing with pilots, Air Force pilots, especially.
Whenever you brought up the conversation of, hey, have you ever seen a UFO or UAP,
there's a look on their face that comes across that it's not right.
You can see their eyes divert and, uh,
That's been that way my whole life dealing with former military pilots.
I don't know what it is.
Again, it's the stigma.
But, you know, I don't know what the Air Force or Navy tells them.
Anyway, that's the, I absolutely believe those SPs.
And I wish someone would kind of look into that.
I don't understand why so many of these UAPs, UFOs, have what appears to be nav flights.
You know, I mean, do they have to follow FAA regulations?
Are they, if they're human, I don't understand how we did it because, you know, the maneuvers defy physics as I believe humans understand it today.
And it's been going on since at least the 40s and really probably long before that.
So, but if it's not, I just say humans that we know, there must be some kind of rules that say they got to have not.
have lights also.
It's kind of weird.
The UFOs that reported
that cannon did have lights
and that these documents are available
I found recently online.
So, you know,
the description of the UFOs
and the newspaper clippings
and that kind of stuff.
Anyway, Ryan, I was never scared.
It makes me curious more than anything.
And I want to thank you
for the great shows. I really love your sincerity and your eagerness and your interest. It really shows
look forward to listening and to further shows. Again, Ryan, thank you so much.
Hi, Ryan. My name is Vivian. I'm 34 years old and I currently live in China. But the event I'm
about to describe happened in a place called Black River, which is a rural, sparsely populated suburb about
50 minutes drive from the little town I grew up in in North Queensland on the east coast of Australia.
I think it was the year 1997 because I remember around this time was when Princess Diana was
killed in Paris, so I believe this could be correct. And if so, that puts me at 10 years old at the time.
So this happened one early evening. I think it must have been in the winter, so around June or
July, because I remember it was getting dark early in the day. I was with the night. I was with
my mom and my dad and we were getting ready to leave the large property our horses were kept on.
This property was quite remote, reached only by a dirt road, and the property itself was just
bush and backed onto government land. There were no houses on it or around it, and the property
had no electricity, and there were no streetlights, so it was quite dark at night. On this
particular evening, we were waiting for our two horses to finish eating their food, so we could
pack up their feed buckets and head home and I remember we were just standing around our car
at the entrance to the property just talking and brushing the horses. I remember it was a clear
dark night. There must not have been much moon because I remember it was very dark but the sky was
very clear and full of stars. As we were standing there one of my parents, I'm not sure now if it was
my mum or my dad said what do you suppose that is and I looked up and saw a reddish orange ball
light hovering above Mount Black, which is a pyramid-shaped small mountain visible and not too
far from the property. It's hard for me to say how far away the light was or how far above
Mount Black it was, but it appeared to be larger than the lights of a plane or a helicopter at that
distance. I remember describing it later like a miniature sun. It was so bright. It was hovering
above the top of the mountain and stationary. We watched it for some minutes before things started to get
weird. So after a while it started to move, but not in the way that any aerial craft at the time
moved. The best way I can describe it is that it zipped along. It zipped across some and then would
stop, and then it would zip straight up and stop, then it would zip down again, but on a diagonal,
and then it would stop. It was able to accelerate from a stationary position to an incredible
speed so fast, and also to stop so suddenly it didn't seem to be affected by inertia at all.
So it carried on with these movements for maybe five or so minutes.
It was almost as if it was making some kind of shape or pattern in the sky with the movements.
We were watching it the whole time and I mean my eyes were glued to this thing because even though I didn't really know about UFOs at that time,
I knew intuitively that what I was seeing was something that did not and could not be a conventional aircraft or a military craft.
The speed at which it moved and the way it moved, I just knew we were watching something really special.
And so we watched it zip along making these strange movements, and then it stopped and hovered completely stationary.
Then, in less than a second, it shot straight up into the sky and was gone.
And I mean, the speed it shot upwards was like, in the blink of a night, was that fast.
When that happened, I remember my mum was like, okay, time to go, and we all pretty much ran for the car.
I think my parents were pretty freaked out, and the whole drive home I remember just sitting in the back feet totally in shock,
listening as my parents debated about what the heck we all just saw.
Being around 10 at the time, I didn't really tell anyone about it until years later,
though I did often talk about it with my parents.
Memory stayed with me, though, as clear as day through all the years,
it definitely ignited in me a desire to know more about the UFO phenomena
and the universe in general.
I have many times over the years searched databases and newspaper records
to try and find any other accounts that match what I saw that.
that night. It's definitely shaped the person that I am today and stirred in me a want of something
more than just the acceptance of a mundane earthbound life. I do believe whatever or whoever was
controlling that craft that night was not from this world and believing that actually brings me
optimism. And I think that if humans could just think outside of our earthbound life, there could be an
incredible potential for us to explore space and inch closer to understanding our place in the universe
and how we got here.
I have never had any doubt about what I saw.
I never thought, oh, maybe we were wrong.
Maybe it was a plane.
No, what we witnessed that night was just so far beyond human capability
that it wasn't even a question to me,
that what we saw was something other than a visiting UFO.
So, yeah, that's my story.
To this day, I continue to search the skies,
no matter where I am in the world.
And on a few occasions, I've seen things that made me one.
but I've never seen anything again that matched Royce saw that night in 1997,
though I hope one day maybe I will again.
Anyway, thanks for listening.
I'm Ralphie, and I want to talk about one of my singular specific experiences,
which I had many, many years ago,
and it is because I was a young child at the time, no more than seven years old.
that I've always been very open-minded
about the existence of unidentified blank objects
and other phenomenon, similar phenomenon.
Because when we're children, we're open-minded,
we're not burdened by the baggage of self-censorship
that adults are.
and I was basically
young kid, seven years old
on holiday
with the family
and we were walking down a riverside path
very pleasant
very attractive
on our way to the beach
and
my brother ran ahead, my little brother
so my parents kind of ran on to catch up with him
because he was the less responsible one, still is.
And I sort of fell behind because
I was just fascinated by the flow of the river,
the sound of the river, everything about it.
Just rather like this river here.
There's something magical about water,
something significant that grown-ups tend to censor out
but young children are much more of.
aware of, which is probably why they go splashing in paddles and paddling in rivers and throwing
stones in rivers, all these sorts of wonderful things. And suddenly the atmosphere around me changed.
I felt completely on my own in the environment without anybody else being there. And a small
spherical sphere, it was glowing with tiny minuscule sparks emanating from it.
Completely silent, floated down the middle of the river slowly, suspended two feet off the water.
So it was floating above the water.
It just was drifting literally with the speed of the river flow.
And it seemed to shimmer like a pearl.
And I wasn't particularly frightened.
I was just fascinated and I just stood and stared at it
and it travelled a bit further down the river about 10 metres in front of me and then stopped
and then it drifted back rising slightly as it came to a point where it was level with me
and about six to eight feet above my head height
and I just felt that I was being
communicated with
in a way that I couldn't possibly understand
it's almost like some presence
was just acknowledging this curious little
humanoid child
before
it rapidly headed
back down following the river
and disappeared
completely disappeared
it's almost as if I was
as it was fading away down the river, it was fading away from sight.
And I've never forgotten that.
It didn't last very long, but it left a very strong impression,
and particularly because I was a kid, seven-year-old kid,
and nothing prepared me for it, and nothing warned me against it.
I simply took the experience completely as it happened.
So, I didn't even mention it to anybody at the time,
but in later years, when the topic of conversation is turned round
to more esoteric things like UFO phenomenon, spirits, ghosts,
I mean, this is a question I've always been asked as a funeral director.
Do ghosts exist?
And the answer simply, yes, they do.
if you acknowledge them they exist in some form
if they did not exist we would not have a name for them
a word for them or a concept of them
simple as that it's nothing fancy about it
and it's because I'm open-minded
when people when the topic of conversation comes up
and I say I believe that UFOs exist
and I've seen UFOs
and that was the first sighting
people start to open up a little bit
people who would normally keep quiet and say nothing
and keep the lips sealed
because of being fearful of scorn
ridicule and disbelief
suddenly start to communicate
and these communications are really quite articulate
they certainly exist
but one of the misunderstandings is that
UFOs are unidentified
aerial phenomenon are extraterrestrial is partly true. There are also terrestrial aerial phenomenon
which are not easily identified unless you communicate in certain circles. But that's the way of
the world. That's what it is. One of the skills in life is to accept what we must, learn what we can,
and change what we need to.
Bye-bye.
The incident I had happened in late 1980.
I was sitting around the kitchen table with three other people.
We were actually playing a game back in the 80s called Masterpiece.
I was facing the window which looked south towards a forest
and about 100 yards away
and probably a mile of cemetery on the other side.
of this forest.
As I looked up,
I could see two orange
pea-size
lights
about two miles away
over the cemetery.
I thought this was odd because there's
there was never any planes
or any type of air traffic
in that area.
I said to
everybody sitting around the table, oh look,
there's a helicopter over top of the
forest. Nobody
really seemed to take note of it. As I went to play my card, I looked up again and within a
blink of an eye, those orange-colored pea shapes became huge basketball lights within a second
hovering just over the edge of the treetops. I stood up, looked, and the left one blinked out,
and then the right one blinked out, just like a light switch.
I said to everybody, what the hell was that?
We ran outside, took a look, nothing in the air.
There was no sound.
The orange lights were almost spinning.
Like, what I thought of was the Enterprise on Star Trek, when their lights spin,
and there's that orange swirl.
That's what these look like for the second that,
they were sitting there. It was fascinating. It's been in my mind for 40 years trying to figure out
what that was. The biggest thing was how quick it moved from from P-shaped to huge basketball shape.
Like I said, in a blink of an eye, it was there. Just amazing. You know, from that point on,
I started to look up in the sky all the time. I was looking, I was trying to find. I was trying to
find something that maybe that I would see again. I haven't done that, haven't seen another
thing, but I'm hopefully one day that I would. It was very exhilarating to see that. And I'm always
looking up in the sky and seeing if there is something somewhere in the sky that I could see.
It was quite the experience. I've been wanting to tell this story for forever. And a lot of people
basically nobody that I know see this coming from me because I'm seen as a reasonable person
in my circle of friends or like anyone for that matter sees me like a reasonable person like
a really rational and driven human being so when I tell them that I saw a UFO and like
like crazy like were you okay like did you do drugs did you smoke like what what did you do
that's not you I know it doesn't sound like me if you know me but this happened to me
I'm not making this up um it's it's pretty crazy so hence I also have another witness
but the tricky thing is that the other witness, aka my mom, has a slightly different version from me.
I know what I saw.
I saw what I saw.
I know that was real.
If my mom saw something else, like something more, I don't know.
I don't know if I didn't see it.
So I just know what I saw.
This happened in the island of East.
that I don't know if you know it is an island in the Gulf of Naples in southern Italy.
And it's a terribly beautiful place.
Like it's a breathtaking place.
I do recommend you to go there on vacation.
And it's no stranger to UFO sightings.
So, me and my mom were on vacation in Eskia.
and every night we like to take a stroll down the streets of the island because it's safer
and so we were like walking down the street and we walked all the way to Castello
Lagonesse but I think I can translate it as Arragonese castle it's basically a castle
that's in the middle of the sea it's connected to the ground
with a bridge, with a stone bridge,
and so you can walk your way from the island
to this smaller island where the castle is.
And a lot of people go there at night
because the castle is closed at night, but it's lit up.
It looks beautiful.
And so yeah, me and my mom, we walked all the way there,
and we were like on the stone bridge
because a lot of people go there on night
it's a very romantic place, really cute place
and there is a small seat
all along the bridge
I was sitting on the top
and I was looking at the sky
and me and my mom we were looking at the sky
and also like the time
I want to say the time and a place so that I can
I don't know that
maybe someone working in the field
can figure out something, like what happened on this freaking day?
It was in the island of this.
It was Friday, the 12th, July of 2019, and the timing was around 10 p.m.
Me and my mom, we were sitting there, and we were looking at the sky,
because where we live, we live in the city.
So, you know, it's a pretty big deal to see the sky at night
for real. And we were looking at the stars and all over the sudden the stars start moving.
Like we see a group of stars like moving in the sky, flying in formation.
In a very neat formation. It was a pretty oblong formation. They were really spaced out
amongst one another and they were like, I can't remember how I didn't count them, but maybe
12, 15, something like that, they were like a lot of them. And they were like traveling through the
sky and they looked like stars and they looked like basically very, very, very high vehicles,
like some kind of plane that was flying really high in sky. And so I was like, who is flying?
lying at night in this formation at this time and we were like, whoa, we saw a UFO.
We saw some UFOs.
That was crazy.
That's a pretty big kind of sightening.
And boy, we were in for a treat like we thought it was, it wasn't, it was only just beginning.
Because we looked again at the sky.
I can't quite explain it.
We saw rings of lights.
They were like connecting and snapping.
They were like meat of plasma I looked like.
They were rings of lights.
Floating in the sky, I think they were really high.
And if I have to think about the size,
I think that if they came down, they would have taken maybe, I don't know, like, maybe half for a quarter of the bay, I think, Loki, but surely they would have, they were bigger than the castle, surely.
And they were, like, pretty high in the sky, I think. I think they were a little lower compared to the fleet we saw first.
but they were like
I can't count them either
but it's
a very disorganized formation
like they weren't flying
in formation like the fleet
it was just a
huge bundle
of rings made of light
like oval rings
mid of light and they were like
connecting and snapping
connecting and floating and swimming
through the sky
and they were like
getting into conglomerate
into, how can I say, like crumbs?
And then they were like separating because they were like two or three of them.
And then four or five, six all together and then snap and then snap.
And there were also sparks flying through these big group of things.
And it was like, you know when fireworks go off and there are those little sparks flying,
those little sparks, they were like emitting those little sparks.
and the cute thing is that they weren't like a plain white.
They were really, really colorful.
They were like, for me, this is where my story, my mom's story start diverging a little.
I saw a prevalence of greens, reds and yellows.
My mom agrees, but she says that she also saw some blue and pink.
I didn't see as much of a blue and pink in my opinion
but I saw what I saw
I saw green, yellow and red rings
and there were like at least two of them
there were like these two big groups of
like connected rings and then one of them
like kind of dissipated and the other one
instead kept being like
I can't make up words
it kept itself together
and they were like, they looked like they were rolling or like swimming through the sky.
It's like, it was like the fleet we saw first, like, acted as a sort of bodyguards for these things in the sky.
And it did, I was really confused because I was like, this is not surely, this is not a vehicle.
Like these are not planes, are.
These are not ships, spaceships or whatever.
And neither they are living beings, right?
Because the only way I can describe it is that they were living light, living plasma.
Because they didn't look like living conscious beings.
They had nothing human or like animal-esque, if I can say so.
They were literally rings of light,
but they looked like they knew where to go.
They were like flying together in this very disorganized group formation.
They were rolling and swimming through the sky.
So it to me looked like they had a sort of, I don't know, intelligence.
Like they were like, we go this way.
But they didn't look anything like living creatures.
It's, ah, ugh, ah.
And the closest thing that I can compare,
compare them to is a power-up that I, you can find in a video game called Chicken Invaders and Invaders, yeah, invaders.
And you will see like the first search result, the first pick is this, like, like I told you, this triangle made of three oval rings of light connected, red, yellow and green.
and that is exactly what I saw in the sky.
And I'm not making this up because I showed it to my mom.
And my mom was like, holy crap, this is our UFO.
And so it's not that I'm like, oh my God, you saw it in the sky because you played the game.
No, no, no, no.
It's just a very, very, very neat comparison.
So you can imagine how high it felt, but not how mom felt because my mom, she was chill.
She was so chill.
She was like, oh, UFOs, aliens.
I knew they existed.
She was like, no.
Hi.
Hi, guys.
She was chill.
I was screaming.
I was like, I scramed.
Like, I was saying,
No, lo cheto.
I'm going to accept it.
I don't accept it.
I don't accept this.
I was like screaming under the night sky
and the aliens,
whatever they were, I was like, I don't accept this, I don't accept this.
That's, I, I was flabbergasted.
So I was screaming in this belief, like I don't accept this.
And I also like slowly made myself, made my way back a little lower, like I told you,
I was sitting on this sort of bench, let's call it bench, and then there was a lower bench.
and I went from this to this because I was like, I'm going to fall.
I'm going to legit fall onto the rocks.
And so I sat lower because I was like, let me take a safer seat.
Let me take it.
I'm not feeling well.
And so my mom without her camera, but our tech gadgets back then and loki now sucked.
my mom has a very saki camera
when she took the camera and started recording
like it came out really sucky
you can only see a bunch of lights
and it doesn't look really
you know it doesn't
like you don't see the ringlets in there
you know
their look
how they actually did like you only see like some
shiny dots in the sky it looks horrible
And so we don't have basically anything to prove what we saw
because the footage we took and the pics we took, they suck
and you can't literally tell anything.
Like, it's just like the dark sky and some random sparkly dots.
So, yeah.
Only to make matters worse, I regret, this is a decision that I will regret
my entire life to not scream,
people, look up.
Frick, look the F up.
Nobody was looking up.
I swear, nobody.
Like, there were a few people around us.
It wasn't crowded because at that moment in the night,
like, it's pretty lonely and it's peaceful.
But at least a couple people, like, there were a couple people around us.
And I and my mom, like we didn't scream people. Look up. Like there are literal, you with those over our heads. I didn't do nothing. I was in shock. But I still regret that I didn't do nothing. And my mom didn't do nothing. And we say it all the time. We should have like scream to the top of our lungs. But we didn't do anything.
and so yeah this is our our secret our our thing nobody else saw it and it's ridiculous because
in that spot of the bridge it's lonely but if you walk your way towards the island the bridge is really
crowded like a lot of people go there to party and so like how stupid humans are like there is like
a bunch of people there, nobody looks up to the sky to that monstrosity.
Like, I swear, it hits you really hard.
And they were actually really pretty.
And so, yeah, I don't want to, no offense, alien.
Like, I didn't say monstrosity as an offense.
And, yeah, I was, like, also terrified.
I was downright terrified because I was, like, these are here.
And they're, like, they're so close to the earth.
And what are they going to do?
Like, I was like, are they going to, like, laser me right now?
Like, I'm looking at them.
Do they want me to look at them?
Or, like, how are they going to get defensive?
And, like, I said, like, shoot a laser or anything.
I was like, ugh.
So I also, I think I also didn't scream because I was like, oh, freak, they're going to,
they're going to laser me.
And, yeah, but they didn't.
And so since then, I'm like, I wish I saw them again.
Like, I wish that I will see them again one day because they look cute.
They look hell of cute.
And so, yeah, after this really chaotic moment of this really shocking moment,
me and my mom, we went to a bar and we ordered two lava cakes
and tried to calm ourselves there.
in front of the chocolate lava cakes because that was like the right thing to do in that moment.
So yeah, and that's the end of the story.
Hey Ryan, what's up?
My name's David.
All right, so first off, let's start this story off with a dream that I had.
Back around 2016, I'm asleep, and I wake up and it is cold.
And I can feel the breeze.
all around and I open my eyes
I look up and the roof
is gone
it's just
like it never existed
it was almost like they built a house
with no roof
I could see this craft up above
this this big
bright circular
disc object
and I remember
a beam coming down it was like
whiteish yellowish in color
and it
picked me up into the air. I can remember watching as I was gaining altitude, rising up in the ship,
I was looking down, watching my feet dangling. I remember looking at my socks and I remember how cold it was in the dream.
When I got into the craft, and I want to say this, I was so happy that they were here, you know, that the truth is finally came.
When I got into the craft, there was other people in there.
They didn't know what was going on.
I didn't either.
But the other people didn't have the feeling I had, that's for sure.
And I don't remember anything else about that dream, but it was cool, right?
Let's fast forward a couple months.
Me and my girlfriend rose at the time, right?
We're driving through Hamilton, New Jersey, where I'm from.
And we're going out towards Yardville, Borden Town area.
And there's a spot that we used to go to because it was right off the road and nobody could see you.
It was just like completely surrounded by trees because they were going to build houses.
development, but they never did it back there. I guess, you know, the, the housing market or whatever,
but it was just nothing. You know, there was about a quarter mile road that led down there,
just a strip surrounded by woods. So we used to go back there and we would sit in the back
of the hatch of the car, the Honda, and we would look up into the sky. We would watch the
stars because we used to love doing that. That was something that we did often and we loved doing it.
And we believe that there's something else out there, you know. I want to say that when I was
younger, I didn't believe in anything like this. And I thought that anybody that did was crazy,
you know? And I came to believe there's things going on that we don't know about or that we
can't explain. And humans don't know and everything, you know, people act like their God and that they
know everything and just because they can't see something and doesn't exist. Well, you can't see oxygen,
can you? But it keeps us alive. I sort of try to keep open mind about things, especially things
that have reported all over the world by people. Uh, I, uh,
in huge numbers.
I think that's very alarming.
I think it's scary.
But I'm sorry.
When we were back in this area,
I remember that we saw these lights off in the distance.
It looked like a bright light, white light,
sort of like maybe with like a yellowish tin at times.
And we're like joking with each other,
because we're trying to figure out what it is and we're like shooting each other's ideas down.
You know, it can't be this because of this or that.
And I remember, you know, it was just something that we took notice of.
There was a lot of other air traffic in the area because I do live by a lot of military bases.
There was helicopters in the area also.
Passenger planes going by, big ones.
But these objects were just sort of floating there for a long time, too, it seemed like.
And we actually noticed other ones often in other parts.
And then we would sort of just not know where they went.
I guess maybe we lost track of them.
But I remember that I was holding her.
We were looking face to face.
And, you know, it was an intimate moment because at the time I loved this girl.
And I remember just looking in her eyes, she was beautiful that night.
And, you know, it was a good memory, you know.
But as I'm looking at her, I realize that there's lasers everywhere.
And I'm like, what the eff?
the F? I was like, rose, rose, look, look. Um, you can see these laser dots on top of tree lines,
okay? So it wasn't coming from somebody on the ground. I could tell you that because you could see
it on top of the tree lines. Uh, it, it was surrounding us literally about the size of like a football
field and a 360 degree angle. Okay. Um, it was,
really cool. I was I was really happy. We saw it and we were literally jumping up and down, shaking our hands in the airs like little kids in Christmas, you know? It just felt like such a cool thing. And I remember that it didn't hurt our skin. It didn't burn our eyes. And I remember one thing, one thing that was alarming. I know that lasers can cause cancer and other.
type of damage.
I didn't get sick or anything like that or experience any type of pain or discomfort.
But I swear I wanted to get out of there.
I want to do so.
I want to say that I acknowledge their presence by blinking my high beams on and off three
times and then turning my lights on and off three times.
And then we drove out of there.
And we were driving back towards like Trenton, Trenton Mace World Takes Bridge.
And it felt like they were almost following us.
Before that, though, before we went to the Trenton Mace World Takes Bridge around that area,
we were driving through Hamilton Square also.
And we could still see these lights, which we thought that it could be these ones.
It almost felt like they were following us.
And, you know, that's just the paranoia setting it.
Because, you know, when you haven't experienced like that, it's, it's really something crazy.
And I don't know what it was, you know, I don't know what the craft was because I couldn't see the object.
I couldn't see what shape it was.
All I saw was the light.
And whatever was shining the laser on us, what was amazing is that the lasers were,
still. And we couldn't even see a craft anywhere near us at that point. So that, that was pretty
crazy, you know, that's some pretty good technology, I gotta say. So, um, yeah, you know, I want to say
also that around that time
I had
sleep paralysis
experience
and I could see
something
and it felt like something
was behind me
okay and I still get creaked out
even thinking about it
and I couldn't see
what it was because it was just a dark figure
it looked like I had a hood on
and it looked like it was all black
but was substance to it
and it was scary
as
anything.
Okay, it's like
something you
just one of the worst feelings
you could ever experience.
And then you start worrying about
other people in the house.
Is this happening also at the same time?
So it's disturbing,
say the least.
But,
um, yeah,
I want to urge people
if you see something, say something
because this is the most significant thing that we could think of, you know.
And I believe that there's things being suppressed.
I'm finally happy at least that the government's admitting to UFOs and stuff like that.
So, yeah.
Was this a military craft that shine the laser on us?
If it was, why would they be doing that?
What's the purpose of that?
Is it maybe just like a training exercise for some type of bomber maybe?
I don't know.
I'd love to know, you know.
I'd love to hear feedback on this if anybody's had a similar experience, you know?
but I just want to say thank you for hearing my story
I think it's awesome what you're doing man you know
keep up to great work dude
and you know I just want to say
be safe
these times are crazy right now
and it's
I want to say to everybody keep your heads up through this
and have the strength to keep moving on, all right?
And if anyone hasn't said it today, I love you.
Thank you.
This is Paul from the UK.
I want to tell you about two of my experiences that I've had
with what I think is UAP, as far as I can tell.
Last year in June, I was at work out in the yard,
loaded in a lorry.
That's why I did my job, just forklift driver.
That exciting.
It was a clear blue sky
It's June, it's lovely
And I'm looking at the sky
Quite a bit because
What's been going on in the past
With all the UAP activity
You're always looking up
Trying to find something
Maybe see something
And there, going across the sky
Nice steady pace
Is this
Well, I'd say tick-tack
But that's obviously
I'm going to reference that
Because of the shape
But it was that shape
And it was moving slowly
It had no wings
had no tail, it was just moving slowly across the sky.
So I took a couple of photographs through the iPhone
and thought that was, the wind was blowing behind me,
which in our yard, it either blows up the yard or down the yard
because we load empty boxes and the winds are a real pain the ass.
So it either drives goes up the yard or down the yard,
which is northwest, I think it's northwest or northeast, and southwest, southeast, if you like.
this thing was going across, across the yard.
So the wind was blowing at it.
It wasn't blown with it.
So yeah, that was a weird thing.
The pictures, obviously, with an iPhone, weren't great.
Small, but you zoomed it.
You can see it's not a plane.
Mick West did make a comment about it being a plane,
a slow-moving plane, but God, you can see.
There's no wings.
There's nothing.
It was just a shape, and it was going across the sky.
Anyway.
that's what the first one was.
Then a few weeks back, I was in the garden at home,
just putting that some washing.
And I live in the countryside, we live quite rural.
And I heard a big jet coming.
It was quite low, but I couldn't see it, but I heard it.
It was coming across the top.
Have a look at what it is.
And then there was this reverberating,
hard to describe it, like a bupah, that sort of thing.
Almost like you get, if you're a Sherlock helicopter,
is going past. That's kind of reverberation through the air. You felt it in the air. And I looked up,
this jet came over and flew across the garden, across my house. Not really low, but it was below the
cloud. And right behind it was a sphere. And this sphere was maybe 15, 20 feet behind this jet.
Now this jet was like a 737. It was a fairly large jet, all white, plain white jet with a yellow
insignia on the tail. That's what I remember is these yellow insignia on the tail.
But this thing flew across and this thing had a sphere following behind it. It was following it.
You just look at it. What's that? And the jet did a bank to the right as it came over the
house. It banked to the right and then straightened up. And when it straightened up, this sphere
went off to the right away from it. And both the plane and the sphere ended up going through
into the clouds. It was a sphere, man. I can't, I can't. I can't.
for the last month, all I've been thinking is,
what caused that vibration?
What was that reverb, that sort of feeling in the air,
that throbbing in the air, it was like a pulse.
And then this plane came over,
and then there's this, this sphere, follow it, it's a sphere.
And the sphere must have been 10, 15 foot across,
must have been, because it was behind this jet,
and it wasn't tiny, it was, it was big.
You could see it.
Crazy, crazy thing.
my first last year the the tic-tac type thing is i mean i've got the pictures on the phone i've got
the small videos from the live setting on the phone i've always got that i keep looking at that
and thinking is it could it be really but it wasn't doing anything fantastic it was just moving
slowly across the sky and i've seen other videos on um instagram and various other platforms
of the same type of thing um so other people have seen the same thing
but this that
so that was cool
I saw that love
well I've been a Tick-Sack man
but maybe I saw you AP
but this thing fly
that look this plane
planes don't fly that low
over my house
we have fighter jets
over here occasionally
but this thing was
like a 737 it was a big jet
and it came across
from the sort of
across from
it's I live in the Midlands
so from the Morven Hills
across to my place
and then it flew
away towards Hereford
And this thing was following it
This was a sphere
It wasn't a plane
It wasn't a bird
It was following this jet
And then it veered off
I've tried to find
Flight details or flight records
Of trying to find ways
Of finding out if this plane
Was there a flight flying over this?
I can't find anything
I can't even remember the exact date
It's just
I wish I could have them
Because something was following that jet
and that jet was flying low for a reason
and they don't usually fly that low.
So that's really cool.
But it's the reverberation in the air.
Is that common when something enters the atmosphere,
when something happens like that,
could it have been caused by the plane,
or could it have been something to do with this thing that was following?
I don't know.
Okay, Ryan, that's all I've got to give you.
Yeah, cool.
Thank you very much.
Hey, Ryan.
My name's James.
I'm 35 years old.
I live in Ontario, Canada, a few hours north of Toronto.
Okay, so I have two sightings to share.
My first sighting I shared with two friends,
and it's sort of what got me into sort of skywatching, I guess,
and stargazing and stuff.
And that leads into my second sighting,
which is a little bit more exciting than my first one,
but I'll tell you them both.
So the first sighting happened in the spring of 2020 in my hometown here.
I was hanging out with two friends, both the same age as me, roughly.
We were having like a band practice kind of thing, a little jam session.
Went until maybe 1230 or 1 in the morning.
And then we started walking home.
We live in like a small town, population of like, I don't know,
15, 10 to 15,000 people.
And this was during sort of the start of the pandemic, so it was pretty deserted outside.
Anyways, so, yeah, we were walking home and we stopped in a parking lot kind of field thing on the outskirts of town.
Just to have a beer and sort of chit chat.
Yeah, and we were just sitting there.
I was facing sort of northwest, and my two friends were in front of me.
We were kind of in like a little circle.
and I just heard like a noise coming from behind me.
The noise is sort of hard to describe.
At first I thought it was an owl sort of diving down to get like a mouse or something.
Just I heard something like sort of cutting through the air.
So yeah, I thought it was an owl at first.
This is all sort of happening like really, really quickly.
But yeah, at first I thought it was an owl.
But the sound was too steady.
it was too like pure I guess if that makes any sense
it just sort of sounded like something
metal or like something that wasn't changing in shape
like a bird or a ball or something like that
just cutting through the air and it sounded like it was coming
it was getting louder and louder it sounded like it was coming right
towards us so I just looked up to see what it was
and there were two lights above us two white lights
not blinking not flashing or anything like
that both uniform with each other like both the exact same about I would say they were about two inches
apart from each other if you were to hold like an arm's length away if you were to hold two inches
that's about how far the lights were away from each other and yeah they just went no noise other
other than that sort of noise I heard both neither of my friends heard the noise but as soon as I
looked up I saw these lights and they were moving west so from east to west
at just a high rate of speed.
So I just said, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, and my friends looked up.
My one friend responded, what the F is that?
And within about five seconds, it had covered from straight above us to the horizon and disappeared.
So a lot faster than a plane or satellites or anything like that.
So yeah, we all kind of freaked out and chatted about it for a while longer.
And then we went home.
Um, my one friend saw on his walk home.
He saw two more lights.
One, uh, just like it was coming like right out.
I'm getting bigger and bigger and bigger and then it just disappeared.
Um, and I can't remember what the, his second thing he saw was, something similar to that.
Anyways, so that was like the impetus to me getting into UFOs and coming to, um,
R slash UFOs on Reddit.
That's where Ryan, I connected with you.
Yeah.
So that was my first sighting.
So after my first sighting, I was, you know, pretty shocked.
Like, it was pretty weird.
I have no idea what it was.
So I spent a lot of time, a lot of nights just star watching in my backyard,
watching for satellites, you know, blah, blah,
seeing if I could just see anything like that again.
So last summer, my second sighting was last summer, year of 2021.
I was just in my backyard, stargazing.
You know, it was probably midnight.
I was looking sort of southeast in the sky, and something caught my attention to the north of me.
So I turned, and I saw two orbs, or two lights in the sky.
One was a bright white, pure white, and the other was an orange orb.
The white orb was, like, they were both really high up in the sky.
The white orb was above the orange orb, quite a bit above it.
and they would sort of illuminate for maybe three seconds, go out for three seconds.
Aluminate for three seconds, go out for three seconds.
And they were ascending, so they were moving up in the sky in sort of like a corkscrew fashion.
It kind of looked like the white one was spinning one way and the orange one was doing the mere opposite of that.
They both would light up at the same time.
And yeah, they're just sort of spiraling up as they light up.
and the orange orb was ascending faster than the white orb.
So the gap between them was closing.
This sighting maybe lasted maybe 30 seconds.
So yeah, these orbs are sort of spiraling and illuminating and going out.
The orange orb is slowly closing in on the white orb.
After maybe they did this four times, like illuminated and went out,
the orange orb had merged with the orange orb.
had merged with the white orb,
and they just went out,
like then just went totally out,
and they were probably out for about 10 seconds.
After 10 seconds,
like instantaneous acceleration,
I've never seen anything accelerate that,
like this in my life,
just instantaneously shot like a bullet straight up,
and it left like a perfect streak,
white streak.
It looked like a perfectly straight lightning,
bolt. That's the best way I can describe it. And then after a few more seconds, one shot,
the same thing happened, but shot to the left. So 90 degrees just, and it went along the horizon.
And same thing, just left this streak like a perfect bolt of lightning. No noise or anything
like that. No one else saw this second one with me. I instantly came inside and told my girlfriend
and was kind of freaking out. But that's it. That was exciting.
It was just so shocking.
It felt like I was seeing something that I'm not supposed to be seeing,
but that isn't supposed to exist.
You know, like I'm seeing this thing that I knew instantly
when I tell my friends or anyone about it,
they're going to look at me like I'm a weirdo or like I'm crazy or something.
But yeah, that's how it made me feel just sort of surreal.
And I don't know, it was awesome too.
Like I've never seen anything like that.
I'm familiar with fireworks.
stuff like that.
And I don't think it was, it definitely was not fireworks.
I've been researching maybe ball lightning.
Maybe it was ball lightning,
but there doesn't seem to be even any definitive answer that ball lightning is even real.
Just sort of witness accounts.
And I found a study from 2014 where they were able to make what they think is ball lightning
in like a lab.
I guess they made like a plasma ball.
But yeah, so I don't know.
I don't know what it was, but it was interesting.
It was cool.
I've never seen anything like that.
I hope to see something like that again.
And I've also been sort of chatting with people on Reddit who have had similar stories.
And there's lots of people out there seeing these orbs that instantaneously accelerate and leave these, you know, this perfect streak of lightning.
Anyway, yeah, that's my sighting.
Yeah, I hope someone finds it interesting and maybe someone has a similar experience.
I'm curious to see.
So yeah, that's it.
Thanks, Ryan.
I appreciate what you're doing,
getting these stories out there
and, you know,
also connecting sort of people
who have had similar sightings
because it is nice to talk to people about it.
You know, it's not something I can...
I talk to my friends and stuff about it,
but, you know,
there is that part of me
that thinks that they just think I'm crazy.
Anyways, so thanks, Ryan.
Hello, this is Ryan E.
Today's date is Monday, April.
4th, 2022. I have been on here before. This is my 11th sighting, in fact. The other 10 are on an
episode on Ryan's channel called The Lifetime of UFOs in British Columbia, which document
the first 10. So anyway, this 11th one, I had just made a report on, I think, Wednesday
to move on reporting one of the sites.
and then filling in the comments section with the other nine.
And then the next afternoon, Thursday,
I was sitting outside wondering,
I wonder if I'll ever see these again.
And sure enough, that night I did.
So I was sitting out in the back deck around near 1130.
There was two white cigars about a half inch in length each.
and with about a half inch space in between them.
I thought it was one at first when I first saw it to the kind of southeast,
and it traveled directly overhead,
or they traveled directly overhead to the kind of northwest,
and there was roughly a half-inch gap in between them, I would say,
and they traveled edgeways, not end-to-end,
and that lasted about five, yeah, about five to six,
seconds. So I went inside and grabbed my cell phone off the coffee table and my clock's at 1124, so
p.m. So I guess that would have been around 1122 or 23. It actually happened. So I turned my camera
on and went back out and a couple minutes later there was what I recognized as cloud guy,
which you'll remember from the other video if you've listened to it.
Basically just a roundish cloud with no shape traveling across the sky,
holding its shape, no tail, no sound, no lights.
And I only saw it for about two seconds when I looked down
and tried to get my camera ready to take a picture of something
and then knocked it out of camera mode, of course, and fiddle with it.
By the time I got back up, it was gone.
and I couldn't spot it with my eyes.
So nothing to film.
So I went downstairs,
and the time, actually the time of that one I noted was 1130.
So then I went downstairs and got my daughter
to come hang out on the back deck with me,
and we sat on these chairs in front of the barbecues,
just look at the stars and chatting them.
And then she spotted it first, I guess,
because when I said, do you see that?
She goes, yeah, I'm looking right at it.
And so there's from behind us kind of the,
northwest, traveling back the same direction as the other two, the first two I had seen,
but slightly to the south, but still sort of a straight line, east-ish.
And I saw them as kind of like two dim sort of satellites, not twinkling, no tails,
and one on the left was slightly brighter, so I was keeping my eye on that,
but I did notice that there was a pair of them.
And they were traveling straight
and then took a curve about 30 degrees,
both of them, toward the south, like further to the south.
So that's the first time I'd seen them change direction
and my co-witness there.
She stated the same thing that she'd seen them curve.
The next day, I had drawn a picture for my wife
before she'd gone out to dinner with some friends
of the first ones that I had seen these cigars.
and then later on my daughter kept referring to them as lines
so I asked her to draw what she was talking about
and what she drew was exactly what I had drawn for my wife
these two little cigar white things side by side
except that she said she saw them traveling end to end
so I mean she's younger better eyeballs and she was wearing her glasses
so I will trust her vision on that
especially since they were exactly what I had drawn for my wife a few minutes before that.
Anyway, I thought that was kind of cool.
And we noted the time was 1155, so it would have happened at around 1153, we figured, PM.
So that's it.
Those are the three, and I guess I'll keep you posted.
I'm sure it will continue.
Okay, take care.
I'm going to talk about a thing I saw in the sky.
On the way to my boyfriend's house, I take Route 70 going west towards maple shade,
which I would have to get on 73, as you all know, if you are from New Jersey or whatever.
So right at the cross section of where my town starts and Route 70 intersects with it.
that I'm supposed to make a left.
I mean, a right.
Wow, this is so hard to explain.
To make a right.
And there's this cornfield to my left,
and I saw this thing in the sky.
It looked like...
It looked like the North Star.
Like, literally, it did.
And it was, like...
It was kind of light out,
but the sun was gradually going down,
and I was just staring at it.
I was at the stoplight.
and it kept getting dimmer and dimmer and dimmer and dimmer and dimmer and then you see these lights like at the bottom of it like go around it was really spooky and it had three lights and they were all the same color so I'm like what is this and I was staring out and this light seemed like it lasted two minutes but I know these
This lights only last, like, a minute, a minute and a half.
And everyone else is staring at me in their car.
Like, what is this girl staring at?
I'm like, oh, no.
So I look over to see if the light changed.
The light changed.
I looked back.
It was gone.
Nowhere to be found.
So I got on my phone, and I called my dad.
I'm like, Dad, oh, my God, I think I just saw a UFO.
He's like, what do you mean?
I'm like, I think I just saw a UFO.
He's like, well, describe it.
So I described it, he's like, that sounds weird.
Um, are you okay? I'm like, yeah, I'm fine. I just don't know what the heck just happened.
And so on my way to my boyfriend's house again, like, um, since I saw it in the sky,
southeast, southeast of me, okay? Um, so I started going towards 73 and I saw it again.
and this time I was in like heavy traffic.
It was stop, go, stop go.
So I'm staring at it.
And traffic starts moving again.
So I keep staring at it, looking up, looking up.
And it's doing the same thing over and over again.
And I'm like, oh my God.
So I looked up finally and it disappeared.
It was so freaky.
I saw it twice and one night.
And my dad, I called my dad again saying I saw it again.
and he's like, well, maybe they're after you.
I'm like, I doubt that.
And he's like, well, go outside tomorrow and see if you see it,
and then they're definitely after you.
I'm like, that's not a joke.
Like, seriously, I don't know what the heck that is.
It was freaking me out.
So, apparently I'm not the only one who has seen these things.
People in Pennsylvania have seen the same thing,
and people in North Jersey have seen the same thing.
So I'm thinking what the heck is going on.
I really want to know.
I don't want to be the only one who has this insane story which no one believes.
So, yeah, that's my UFO story.
So bye guys.
Hi, Ryan.
Thanks for giving me this opportunity to tell this story.
I've had a few experiences, but I'll tell the one of most significance, I'd say.
My name's Josh.
I'm 33 years old.
and I'm from Glencoe, west coast of Scotland, in the Highlands.
It was November night back in 2007 or eight.
I can't quite remember the exact year, but about that time,
my buddy had not long passed his test, not much else to do,
so we used to just cruise around in his voxel Astra estate
and listen to loud music, sort of talk nonsense.
So this is a night.
A night similar to many others.
Anyway, we're driving...
I missed add, sorry, where I am on the West Coast,
there's not a huge amount of light pollution,
so on a clear night, you know, away from any lights from the village,
you can see all the stars.
It's beautiful.
You can also see the sort of haze of the Milky Way
with the naked eye when you go up to Glen, you know?
So quite fascinating, just we used to sit and smoke cigarettes
and watch the night sky off
and always seeing things like darting about
most likely satellites, you know.
Anyway, this night in particular,
we were driving them along this straight.
It was probably like a 10 miles stretch of road
that's in the middle of a glen,
not too close to either of the mountain
either side of you.
So a fairly open bit.
This particular night was quite cloudy.
A few odd patch
of stars would shine through, you know, you could see through.
Anyway, we're driving along, and I saw
this sort of, I guess, peach would be the best way it described the colour.
This pinky orange light coming from one of the mountains.
Initially, we're like, oh, there's a flitter.
What do we do with that?
There's obviously people trapped, stuck up there
and they're needing assistance.
Who do we call, who called police?
What's the number for mountain rescue?
Blah, blah, blah.
Decided to go to the pub.
That was, you know, as I say, about eight miles away from where we were, kind of in this loop that we would do.
So we're heading towards this pub, and as we were driving along, music pumping, I kept my eye on this light because it was weird.
It didn't look.
You know, flares are all sorts of colours, I suppose, but this looked a bit weird, or maybe I wanted it to look weird.
So I was watching it.
And as I was watching it, it was, you know, a good minute or two.
it was still lit up like bright
and it was almost coming towards us
we were driving towards it and it appeared to be coming towards us
and it got to a point it was maybe
a mile or two away itself from the mountain
it appeared to have come from
that in our experience of seeding flares
and a lot of people get rescued off the mountains around here
don't really hang out like that
so I decided to stick my head out the window
because you know I've got like lights from the dash and stuff
in the car it's kind of hard to see through the window
sort of stuck my head out to sort of spot a silhouette of a helicopter or something.
I couldn't see anything. I just saw just this light.
I was it right. I told my buddy to pull over and the lay-by, cut the engine, music off.
He sat there watching this light. Now by this point it had come, you know, almost parallel to us
a good few hundred metres above the ground and again maybe four or five hundred meters
away from us in a sort of horizontal direction, you know.
So close enough that if it was a helicopter,
you would hear the rotors.
There's nothing, absolutely nothing at this point.
It's sort of like just hanging, hanging in the sky.
Clouds above it.
You could see the light of it reflecting off the clouds,
so it was obviously fairly close to the cloud.
And me and my buddy were joking like, oh, a UFO or whatever.
And as we're saying that, it shot upwards.
very, very, very quickly through the clouds.
So quick it was almost unbelievable when it did it.
You could see the light go through the cloud, you know,
as it went up and out.
To watch my bloody and I got a bit of freaked out.
And jumped in the car and proceeded to go.
So, yeah, that was that one.
Another one, very quick one, was not too long.
believe it was after that.
A few of my friends and I were sort of walking up and down the village as we would do,
killing time on a weekend, not much to do but drink and stuff like that.
And out of the corner of my eye and directly in front of my other friend,
we saw this red, it was like a meteorite, you know,
just like go flying behind this mountain.
Again, the light would just like bounce off all the rocks of the mountain and disappear.
and we waited, waited and waited for some sort of impact sound.
Just nothing, nothing at all.
So that was quite bizarre, but that one's not so, not so mysterious, really.
I guess it could have just easily been a meteorite.
And my third experience would be a place called Cool Bay,
very beautiful, open part of a beach, you know,
right at the sea, right beside the loch.
It was about four in the morning.
I believe I was the only one awake at this point.
And I could hear this like,
me, you know, humming noise, drone noise.
This was 2003.
And to my knowledge, I didn't know about drones.
Of course, remote RC planes and stuff like that.
I didn't know anything about a drone then.
And this object, quite small.
flew over the top of my head.
It was
not in the shape of a plane.
It was
I don't know how to describe it.
Semi-circle
made this weird
high-pitch humming noise
and appeared to be quite small
maybe the size of me
you know, an adult
me now
sort of flew above my head
a few hundred metres above my head
and I just initially thought
oh cool
someone's got an RC plane and then it just kept going and going and going until it just like faded out.
It faded out of my eyesight.
Hey Ryan, hope you're doing well.
My name's Jesse Brock and I witnessed something that I cannot explain when I was in high school with my younger brother and I'm here to tell that story.
So when I was, I believe I was in the 10th grade and my brother was in the 7th or 6th grade.
We lived in an area that is not super rural, Tennessee, but it's definitely off the beaten path.
And it was a little bit of a nicer community, but we were surrounded by a lot of trees.
I think the plot of land that my parents and I lived on was 10 acres or so.
And there was a house maybe 100, 200 yards away.
we couldn't hear the interstate, really heard any cars outside of like delivery trucks for like UPS and FedEx.
And occasionally a dump truck would come through the area.
But there was not much else going on out there.
That was unusual, very quiet, nothing crazy.
So one night, my brother comes and knocks on my door probably shortly after midnight.
And I remember he would do this thing where he would just knock and wouldn't say who was there.
And it would always freak me out.
So I was like, hello?
And then he was like, hey, it's me.
And so I walk out and I meet him.
And I'm like, what's up?
And he says to me, he says, there's something outside.
And he's like, there's like a triangle in the sky.
And I was like, okay, whatever, you know, we'll see.
So we walk to his bedroom window.
a little bit of information about our yard.
So there's a stretch of yard outside of his window that was probably about 20 yards or so before the tree line started.
And then it's solid woods for acres and acres.
And I don't see the triangle that he saw, but he told me, before he came and got me, he saw a triangle hovering over that area of yard up above the tree line.
with three orange lights on each of the corners, and then one large orange light that was kind of
glowing in the middle. And he said it was huge and completely silent. So he came and got me
at that point. At this point, we come back to his room. And I don't see anything for a moment.
He says, I know it'll come back. And then sure enough,
A very large bright orange light kind of appears above the tree line, kind of to our right.
I can see it through the trees and then it kind of comes above.
Very slowly moving.
Moves back over kind of in front of us looking directly out the window.
Kind of goes over to the left and then disappears over the tree line near where there's a large ridge.
Completely quiet.
I could tell it was a large shape.
I couldn't see the three corners that he did.
described, but I could tell it was a large shape of some sort. And he was, when we saw it,
he said, that's it. That's it right there. And it came back, crossed in front of us, and then
disappeared to our left over the tree line. Completely silent, much like other, other UFO
encounters, dead quiet, and, uh, and no noise at all. And that was, that was the extent of it.
I would describe myself as an avid UFO believer.
I had always kind of been interested in the topic in high school.
I was very into conspiracy theories and things I would read online.
And UFOs, I always thought UFOs were really interesting and interested in aliens
and the prospect of life from somewhere else in the universe or even from another place on our planet.
when I when I had that experience with my brother, I was blown away and it really just
solidified my belief. And I have I have never had I've never wavered from it since then.
My brother and I don't share the same beliefs. He's very skeptical, very open to
alternate interpretations. He's just a bigger skeptic. He's just a bigger skeptic.
than I am. But the important thing about our sighting is we've always told the same story.
He was unwilling to be a part of this, but he did. He still tells the same story that I tell,
albeit he doesn't like to talk about it a ton. As for how this experience made me feel,
I didn't think a ton of it other than it just being kind of a weird thing at the time.
I definitely knew that it was strange, but as things, you know, as we've seen technological progress over the years, the event just seemed stranger and stranger to me.
For example, there were no commercially available drones in 2007, 2008, when this happened.
The fact that there was no noise, you know, you can hear a helicopter from very far away before you even see it.
And I could see whatever this object was, and there was no noise.
But probably personally, the most alarming thing to me, I'm very interested in alien abductions.
I've read many accounts of, you know, of course there's very famous alien abductions to people's anecdotal stories on, you know, Reddit or whatever.
But I learned about the Terry Lovelace abduction.
sometime in the past six years or so, five or six years.
And the way that he described his craft,
especially when they first saw it,
is strikingly similar to what my brother describes seeing
and strikingly similar to kind of what I saw.
And I don't know, I remember I read that account
and I sent that to my brother and I said,
read this and think about what we saw. And he was, he definitely had an interesting response to it.
You know, it's a really crazy story. I'll be it. We don't have a ton of evidence outside of,
you know, the, the weird bone growth and the implants inside his bodies, you know, and,
and that's, you know, another topic. But I don't know, the, the proximity of the craft to our home
and thinking about what happened to Terry and also the things that he described, you
you know, recalling in his dreams was alarming to me. And my thought was, were we about to be
visited by beings? Or was this just a military craft that was just hanging out? But I don't know,
that story has always seemed interesting to me, uh, within the scope of my sighting. Um,
I'm still a firm believer in, uh, in UFOs. And, uh, I believe. And, uh, I believe.
that whatever the phenomenon is is much larger than we can possibly understand without,
you know, having insider information as it seems there are organizations that have insider
information. But I think that we're experiencing something real and especially with the
events that have taken place over the past year with Commander Fravers account,
becoming public, the military report, or the report from the Department of Defense, it's all very,
I don't know, it's nice to have this affirmation coming from our government and highly qualified
pilots talking about these sightings and talking about these unexplained events.
And it makes me feel a lot better about what I saw and how consistent the sightings are over
many different societies and cultures.
And it's comforting to think of that.
Ryan and Summer in the sky's fellow listeners.
My name's Reggie from San Antonio, Texas.
A little background about me before going to my strange sightings,
including being a science teacher and having a background in sciences like biology and physics.
This being said, I never thought deeply into the UFO or UPE stories
as they were always considered blue, in my opinion, and even in the science community.
adoptions being the whole thing where you immediately think tinfoil hat,
skept or not so much,
I guess conspiracy theory, but maybe a little of that.
However in these past few years, I kind of changed my whole perspective after
experiencing some weird sightings and even hearing some weird sightings,
especially for my parents.
So I thought I'd share some that changed my whole perspective, like I said,
especially, you know, considering that this world's a big place, the sky is a big place,
we don't always look up, right?
And so who knows what these things can be?
But my first sighting I like to share was when I was on my way to work.
So there was something to caught my attention, maybe a few miles away, a couple hundred feet in the air,
about I guess the size of a small building that far up.
This object was silver and metallic.
And since the sun shine on it, gave a little glare, I could make up the shape.
Spherical, but it looked like it was spinning a little bit.
And so while I thought maybe a balloon, but until it started moving, then it really made me question what it was.
And so what happened was that it started moving left and right, and then it went up vertically, and that just seemed to vanish.
As if somebody just snapped their fingers and made it vanish, or just bad.
managed into thin air. So eventually when I had Tom, I reported this to move on and I was
emailed back by a representative there who was looking into my siding a little bit more to get
more detail. So I gave them the details. I told them what I remember. And so they kind of
shared a little bit about my sighting. They said that it was kind of seen before. Maybe something
a little bit different, but similar in my area, maybe 20, 30 miles away, more or less. And
it was something similar, right, that other people saw. And they thought maybe drone or something
drone-like, but with the way it moved, it didn't really follow any drones that we have nowadays,
especially with its speed and just how it banished is just perplexing. And so my other
sighting being one where I was actually sitting outside.
one evening and something caught my attention. It was a bright light. So I thought, oh, maybe satellites,
meteor, something else, a plane. But since a light was really bright, I could not pinpoint what exactly
it was. It didn't move like a satellite. It didn't look like space debris the way it just shined,
or typical space debris, where it has a different hues and whatnot. But again, you know, it seemed like
something unlike I saw before, right?
And I don't know if it was three objects,
because I saw three lights just blinking very slowly,
as it pulsating, but really, really slow.
And so these three lights were in three different locations,
so I don't know if the object moved,
if it was one object or three different objects,
but the way it was, as far as its intensity of its brightness,
I just don't know.
And so, again, like I said, being someone who has a science background,
I always dismiss these things as mistaken objects and many are.
And while I still kind of think maybe at least the lights,
what I saw, maybe it could be something we have manmade or not.
I don't know.
But at least by first lighting, the way it kind of defied physics
makes me really question what exactly I saw.
and so hearing others
stories of what they saw as well
made me really kind of have an open mind
because I know they believe what they saw
and it could be very much real
something tangible
but again you know
without having data it's hard to kind of make sense of it
and so an interesting
story
from my parents though I'd like to share
is the first one of being from my dad
and so again you know
being skeptical, always kind of dismiss their stories.
I didn't really think much of it.
I'm like, oh, just a story, right?
But until recently, when you had these Navy pilots come forward and share their sightings,
and they had data, they had radar data, they had different types of something, right,
that they can gather, right, as far as something that we can share, right?
Data we can share and something we can make sense of with our current technology.
But even so, when my dad was in.
in the Navy, he saw different types of lights when he was on the Navy ship.
And so this was back in the 70s, he would be on the ship, right?
His naval craft there out in the middle of the ocean.
Sometimes it would be during the day, right night, he would see these big, bright
orbs of light.
They had different colors or different hues, such as blue or orange.
But the way they moved was strange.
and so one story he had was during the day
in the middle of the day
he saw this bright light move really quick
and it just stopped
as if just all of a sudden and then drop
vertically down to the ocean
and this kind of matches one of those stories
that the Navy caught on their
camera I believe
and you know it just fell in the water
so it went into a different medium
And so my dad also worked on radar systems
And he didn't mention
That he
Looked at the radar
And yes, it didn't move fast
But he tried to report it
And of course he was easily
Shot down
So to speak
Where he said, hey, you didn't
Actually he reported it to his
Superiors and they said
Nope, you didn't see anything
You're not going to report it
If you report it, you want to take it up
To someone higher
then you're just going to be court-martial, kicked out of the military,
you're not going to have any benefits, and that's that.
Your whole military career is over.
And so he didn't really want to mention it for that reason, right?
And so I guess until recently he wanted to share it because they said,
well, others are sharing it.
They're not having to get court-martialed since they're out of the military.
So, you know, it's just one of those strange stories.
And so my other story I'd like to share,
is from my mom.
And so she said that
she saw a few sightings.
And so there's
really just two
that she said that we're just
battling. And so
her first sighting, and even the
second one, it was in the last several years
or so. And so
it was similar to mine in a sense,
but it looked like a flying saucer.
And so it looked
like a typical metallic
flying saucer spinning, but it seemed to
hover above the tree line. And so what happened was since she was on her way to work,
it was early morning, but bright enough where you can see, uh, things in the sky. And so she was at a
four-way stop. She saw something that caught her attention. It was rising above the tree line,
getting that flying saucer. And it was spinning, like I said, usually like a flying saucer,
but it seemed to rise vertically and then quickly shut up in the air and just disappeared.
So she couldn't get to her phone, film it as quickly as she wanted to, because it just happened so quick.
And the second one, her second sighting, was one where she wasn't even trying to get it on camera.
But she just so happened to.
And so this craft was really interesting.
She said, and even looking at the video, it looked like just a somewhat metallic craft,
and it seemed to just be moving in the clouds.
but it's hard to make sense of what it was,
since it's so far up in the air,
and again, an iPhone camera's not going to be the best thing to film with.
And, you know, if it was maybe something fancier,
maybe you can make it out a little bit better,
but just the way it moved was just peculiar.
And so this is interesting in that regard,
that we don't know what it is,
but at least she reported it and caught it on camera,
even though she didn't really mean to.
And I guess, you know, as far as what I saw to really just make any sense of it, heads or tails of what it is, I don't know.
It's hard enough to make a conclusion when there's no solid data.
So I don't have radar.
I don't have any of it like that that we're at my disposal or even in my area.
There's just even the military.
I don't even know they caught it on their radar.
Who knows?
But the first sighting with its erratic movement made me think, Jerome.
since there are drones in my area, it typically looked like the plane-looking drone, right?
White in color and whatnot, but just the way this object looked, the way it was spinning,
it was metallic for sure, and it was spherical.
So it was unlike any drone I've ever seen, and the fact that it wasn't even near the military base
just makes me really think what the heck it was, right?
But even so, the way it moved quickly with its movement, and then it was.
vanished is just perplexing. So I don't know what it is. And I wish I would have caught it on film.
But, I mean, since, again, I was driving, it's just, that's kind of brown upon. It's not
legally an option, right? So, you know, the second sighting I had saw, the lights, just, you know,
I don't know. And I would think, again, meteor, maybe drone, I really just don't know.
but the way that the light was, as far as its intensity, was just something different.
And even if I had fancy equipment to film it, to get data,
I don't even know if we would be able to make sense of it even at that.
And so space to break could be an option,
but as far as how it can be in an almost triangular shape the way it moved,
or if it was one object or three objects, I just don't know.
but more than likely,
meteors would emit,
or different meteors would emit different colors,
and they wouldn't,
I guess, be
that color, but
I don't know, it's hard to say.
It could very well be space debris,
but just the way it
just shined, or
the way the light was, just is peculiar.
So it really
didn't fall like space debris either.
So it's hard to say.
But look into the accounts of Mufon,
I mean, these lights have been seen before, at least.
So still baffling.
So I don't know.
But all in all, I mean, just seeing these sightings change my whole perspective,
these UFO or UAP phenomena that people report.
And again, I'm not 100% convince that these are quote-unquote alien.
There could be something else that we just don't know.
And considering we're barely scratching the surface of modern physics,
including quantum physics, strength theory,
what have you, it's just really hard to say.
So until we get more understanding of the universe,
bigger and small,
I guess it's just hard to say.
But I'd like to kind of share what one notable scientific figure
has been saying recently, too, on some podcasts.
One being Avilo, Professor Avilow,
that made some interesting points.
He said that we're kind of in the same era that Galileo was,
where he shared his accounts of what he thought to be true
based on what he saw in his telescopes.
But his colleagues dismissed his ideas
because they had their own understanding,
their own bias,
and they weren't open to getting the data.
They just dismissed it and caught him crazy,
a crackpot, right?
But whether he was fringe or not,
it doesn't matter, he got data.
And so eventually we made sense of it,
now we know the world is not flat.
It's round, right?
So just to dismiss these things as silly is just absurd.
And so not to kind of dismiss or kind of shun such notable figures like Neil DeGresteis
or Brian Cox, which are very brilliant individuals.
But I guess these scientists dismiss these ideas from the public because it doesn't go with their status quo.
And so maybe it's their public status.
They want to keep funding and whatnot.
That's important to keep your funding to do your research.
But it's still not good to dismiss what.
it's already out there as far as evidence.
And so since the military is gathering data about these phenomena,
I think that's a good thing.
So the more we understand,
the better we can wrap our heads around what's going on in the world and the universe.
So regardless of what these sightings may be,
and they alter one's worldview,
and even the universe.
But probably the best option is to keep a modest approach
to what these are instead of making wild conclusions,
but until we get more data, it's hard to say what these things are.
And so like I said, at least the military and even the Galileo project is making a good
kind of approach to gathering data so we can know what these things are possibly.
And so again, I'm pleased to share my accounts with you all and I look forward to hearing
what everybody else has to share.
So thanks a bunch for letting me share.
Hey, Ryan, my name is Patrick. I'm 30 years old and I live in Germany.
Thanks for letting me present my case here.
So, when I was either 16 or 17 in 2008 or 2009, I had a close encounter with a triangular UFO with my friend.
This happened during our summer vacation.
We spent a lot of time together in the village named Hude, H-U-D-E, and northern Germany.
We often stayed up very late.
One night, we decided to go for a walk.
It was already after midnight, and at this time, there are hard to.
any people out in the area. We walked down a deserted two-lane country road on the bike path.
We were surrounded by fields. Suddenly, I noticed an object, moving directly in our direction
from the right above the field. I pointed this out to my buddy and we both start spellbound to watch.
It floated right over our heads across the street and very slowly without making any sound.
It was dark, maybe black and an equal-sided triangle that was close to the side of a triangle that was close to the
clearly a solid object. You could see it very clearly. We only saw its underside, sadly.
In each of the corners was a round whitish light. There was also a round light in the center,
in the middle, but it was kind of different. I can't remember the exact color of it. It didn't
shine brightly. None of the lights did. The lights were dim, as if not wanting to be noticed
or blending us, who knows.
As an untrained observer like I am,
I could be wrong,
but it seemed to me that the UFO was flying so low
that I could have thrown a rock at it.
I wish I could remember the event more clearly,
but it's been a long time.
Details blur over time, you know, sadly.
I said when you saw it,
I said straight to my body that it must be a UFO, since I had seen similar objects before in the X files, the series.
It, yeah, I seemed to react a lot more to the sighting than my buddy did, strangely.
Although I had a camera phone in my pocket, I didn't dead took it out.
On the one hand, I had the thought that the object might notice this.
I might get into trouble, who knows.
And on the other hand, I didn't want to miss a second with my own eyes.
On the other side of the road, there was a woe of trees.
And the field there was also higher overgrown,
so we didn't follow the object any further and couldn't observe it from there anymore.
then after it we both got very scared and very quickly went back to my friend's house
it was very scary to us actually this wasn't my only UFO sighting in my life or
paranormal experience really however I often only stick to this story when telling it
because otherwise it just seems although more implausible I am
saw this close encounter as a sign that my previous experiences weren't imaginary either.
Who knows, right?
However, the triangular UFO topped everything, especially because I hadn't seen it alone.
Years later, I think late 2017 or early 2018, I reported this to the German UFO reporting office,
I-G-A-A-A-P.
They visited me at home in Berlin at the time and interviewed me twice for several hours and took their notes.
I no longer have any contact with my body.
However, when I met with him in 2018, he confirmed to me that we had indeed seen this UFO.
But he doesn't seem to want to talk much about it himself.
I don't know if he's not interested or if it is.
if it scares him, I don't know.
I don't have any contact with them today.
I'm neither a scientist nor a specialist,
but seeing this object stimulated my imagination,
whether it was classified human military technology
or non-human technology.
Just knowing that something like this can exist
is such a big thing to me.
Aliens, time travelers, beings,
another dimension, even holograms, or at least an unexpected secret breakthrough, an earthly technology.
Who knows? I think everything is possible. If a government really possesses such technology
and keeps it secret just to protect its own interests, it would be a crime against humanity,
in my opinion, because it could change the entire world to the better, I think.
but I suppose this is what some called patriotism, who knows.
I mean, if it really is a national security issue for the country to keep alien-like or alien technology secret in order to be able to defend itself,
if the worst comes to the worst, then the public will never, I think never be officially on a legally way aware of the existence.
it will always remain secret under the pretense of national security it would be nice if i
wasn't right here i think we will see we will see such objects were cited during the belgian
ufo wave of um 1989 till nineteen um ninety two um some may remember that um even fighter
jets were sent out. In addition, a photograph of such a UFO was taken at that time.
The photographer claims today that he forged the photo and also explains how. However,
specialists could not replicate this. I believe he was forced to lie and the picture is indeed real.
Then this is the best shot of a UFO to date.
So, Ryan, thank you.
Thank you very much.
So much for giving me the opportunity to share my story on your podcast.
If you have any questions, you know how to contact me.
Hey, Ryan, my name is Rich.
I live in Erie, Pennsylvania, and I'm originally from Iowa.
And I think I have a story about a triangle that you and your listeners might be interested in.
This story goes back to 1991 when I was a freshman in high school in northwest Iowa.
I lived in a really small town of about 12,000 to 14,000 people.
And because of that, usually the town surrounded itself around whatever was happening with the high school.
And the night that my sighting happened, it was a January or February night, and there was a basketball game that everybody came to.
And they did because we had a really talented athlete.
So it was the thing to do in town.
And as a result of so many people being in there, the fieldhouse got really, really hot.
So I decided that I'd step outside from the game because I'm not really particularly interested in sports, but, you know, I went.
So I went outside to cool down, and I walked across the parking lot to the football field.
And I stood out there for a while.
I remember it was a really clear night.
I mean, you could see all of the stars.
And just about the time that I started to feel really cold because Northwest Iowa gets, you know, so terribly free.
up there and I thought I would go back inside. There was not a sound, but I liken it to a sound,
but it all of a sudden felt like there was a buzzing around me, kind of like if you go on a walk
in a city and you walk by a power station and you hear like that zz, that kind of thing. Well,
again, I didn't hear it, but I felt it. And it felt like it was kind of coming down all around me.
And so I looked up, just kind of curious like, what is this? And no joke, above the football field,
was this triangle and it was a solid triangle. It was huge. It was, to my recollection, wider than the
football field and I think probably longer, although it was an equidistance triangle. And it was just
there. It was like just hovering above. And I remember it blocked out the stars. And on each pinpoint,
there was like this whitish blue or bluish white light, just solid, not blinking or anything like that.
And as I registered, oh my God, like I'm seeing this, this sense of calm came over me, which I couldn't explain because, you know, it was a startling moment and yet I felt a kind of euphoria, you know, like this, everything is okay type of thing.
And I also had a sense that it was so close to the ground that if I had a ball, like I could throw and hit it.
Now, I think that's probably an exaggeration, but, you know, it was close enough.
It was so low that it was a bit overwhelming.
And at about the same time, I'm registering all of this, it slowly starts to turn.
And it's doing what I think is going to do, like a 360.
And I can see the points of light moving.
But I realized that as the triangle was slowly turning, it was getting smaller.
And, you know, I realized, oh, my goodness, it's actually picking up altitude.
And before it could do a total 360 twist, it just like, and it was away.
just completely disappeared into the night sky.
And I was just left dumbfounded.
And the interesting thing about it was while that feeling of euphoria and awe kind of lingered a bit,
what came next was this feeling of don't really tell anybody.
And not because I was ashamed or it would be weird.
I mean, who knows how people would respond.
But, you know, I just thought, no, this kind of a feeling that said,
this isn't for people right now.
I can't explain it beyond that.
I didn't lose the memory, but it was always with me.
I just didn't talk about it.
Well, fast forward to 1998 or 1999.
I've gone through high school.
I've gone through college.
I'm now doing my master's work in Western Michigan.
And I lived and I worked in two different small towns.
And one night as I was driving from where I lived to where I worked, I was listening to
talk show on the radio.
And it was some kind of recounting of a local station and a recounting of, I believe it
was a state trooper who had reported in seeing a huge black triangle over Western Michigan
and that he followed it. I believe, if I remember correctly, the FAA got involved in tracking it.
And the weird thing about that triangle was that, while it sounded as big as what I saw,
it disappeared either over or in Lake Michigan. And as I heard this on, you know, public radio
being discussed, something just felt like it snapped and unlocked in me and said, oh, my, you know,
Like that is exactly what I saw as a kid.
And I also felt, this may sound strange to say it this way, but I felt like I could finally talk about it.
You know, like I kind of had evidence now that I had not made this up in my mind, not that I ever thought that I did.
But it was somebody talking about experience that I had had.
And I think part of that was, you know, growing up in the culture that we do, we've always heard about whether in science fiction or on TV like UFOs and flying saucers.
And I admittedly, you know, I have interest in that and I've had interest in that most of my life.
But UFOs to me were like discs, right?
So to see a triangle made zero sense to me in 1991.
And maybe that was part of the hesitancy of saying anything about it until later.
But when I heard an officer and an FAA report on the radio talking about it seriously,
I think I was just like, okay, I can talk about it as well.
You know, looking back on all of it and I've had a couple of other experiences,
gratefully with other people around in public, I don't think that triangle was a military craft.
I just don't. Could I be wrong about that? I could. But it just seemed so otherworldly. And I think we're reaching a point in society where we are more willing kind of broadly, culturally, to ask the question, what would it mean if we were being visited by other intelligent life forms that are not human? And part of me just thinks that that night was at least a suggestion in the direction that it's true. My heart believes that it really is.
anecdotal evidence that it's true. I've gone on in my life to actually pursue a PhD in religion
and ethics, not because of the triangle, but one of the things that I'm now studying and writing
about are paranormal beliefs in North America and how those are shaping religious and ethical
concepts. And so I'm hoping to share my triangle story and the new book that I'm writing. And I
look forward to actually teaching your book in a class at my university this fall.
I hope all is well with you and all your listeners.
And as we say now, keep looking up.
I have to start this off by telling you that my wife, Marci Dell,
is the biggest ex-files, unsolved mystery, alien freak that you've ever seen.
As a matter of fact, I took her to Roswell a couple years ago
just because she's always wanted to go there.
We were hanging out.
This was about, I don't know, somewhere in the 2010s.
My son-in-law, Michael, was just my daughter's boyfriend at the time.
And I'll get back to him in a minute.
So they weren't there.
It was me and some of my kids in Marseudel.
We were hanging out.
And at the time, my mom was living right across the yard from us.
Like I had her house right next to our house.
and we were out there hanging out and I had gone to mom's house for some reason
and as I was walking back from mom's house to our house
I just looked up and there was a giant black triangle in the sky
and it was just kind of cruising slowly and silently.
over the house.
And when I say a giant black triangle, I mean like it covered up most of the sky.
And it didn't make a sound.
And I to this day could give a crap if anybody believes it or not, because I saw it.
And I had been drinking, but I hadn't been drinking that much.
So I knew that Marce Adele, like it would mean a lot to her to see it.
So I hauled ass in the house and I got her up, got her outside, and it was gone like it was gone.
And she was so mad.
I think she's still, to this day, mad at me.
We'll hear from her.
So now, I told you about my son-in-law, Michael, him and Brittany, my daughter, was on a date.
Michael and B-nuckle finally showed back up at the house.
and Michael was sitting there all kind of quiet
and I had not brought this up
because you know we were still
kind of I was still kind of almost in shock
at what I'd seen but I hadn't brought it up
and Michael was sitting there all quiet
and then he's like
he asked me if I believed in UFOs
just out of the blue and I was kind of like what
and so he proceeded to tell me
that as they were driving the backroved over here
that guess what
they saw a giant black triangle
triangle in the sky
and he didn't really know what to think about it or do
and so then I told him that
well it flew right here over the house because I saw it
and so thank it for what it is
that's my one and only UFO story
and I call it a UFO
because I feel like it was probably just some kind of a
some kind of a jet I've been in the Air Force for a long time
or I was in the Air Force for a long time,
so there's nothing that we,
I don't put anything
beyond our capabilities,
but I will tell you,
it was a giant, black,
silent triangle
that I could make out,
and it was kind of just the dusk,
and it didn't make a sound,
and it was huge.
So,
take that for what it is,
and now,
let's hear Marcia Dale's out of the story.
So I'm going to tell the tale about the triangle, UFO, babe.
What's your thoughts?
That's bull crap.
We were out sitting on the porch, drinking.
Of course, I had to go to the bathroom.
I was going to the bathroom when Jimmy runs into the house.
I was like, Marsha, Marsha, come out here.
You got to look at this.
Of course, I was in the middle of going.
And then when I go out there, it was damn gone.
I was just, like, so disappointed.
Be all right, baby.
You'll see another one someday.
Whatever.
Still love me?
Yes, of course I still love me.
Yeah.
M-Wa.
Hey, what's up, guys?
Dennis here.
I just wanted to share my story with you guys.
And hopefully, someone out there resonates with my story and can share an experience that they had
that is similar to what I'm about to tell you guys.
So basically, this happened to me back in 2007.
It was in the middle of summer.
I was at Ice House.
Reservoir in California and it was me and my three friends. We drove up in my Toyota Prius up this little
mountain and up this mountain there was like this little lake up there and it was clear skies when we got
there but it was in the middle of the night. It was probably like midnight or something. It was
dark, okay? And there was one other person that was up there. He was across the lake and you can see a campfire.
So there wasn't any other person that we knew that was up there besides my three friends and this other person.
And it was really quiet.
It was really quiet.
You can hear the heartbeat.
The wind was calm.
And it was just really quiet.
You can hear a whisper.
Basically, you can whisper and you can hear each other.
And on this particular night, when my friends and I looked over the horizon, we saw a star.
And, you know, that's common.
Stars are common in the sky.
But these stars were bright.
Like they, like almost like a planet bright.
And there was three of them that were visible, but one of them was brighter than the most.
But we stared at the star for some time and my friends and I were like, hey, do you see this light or star moving in the sky?
Like it was moving up and down and left and right.
Like it was slowly moving at first.
We just thought maybe it was a saddle.
light, right? And all of a sudden, it just started shifting from left to right, like it was
drifting. Like, it wasn't sure if it was a balloon, but it wasn't a balloon or a blimp. There's
no way a blimp can move in, you know, in the fashion that it was. And so it wasn't a satellite.
There was no way it was satellite. So about a minute later, the light starts to go down
behind the horizon, like it disappears over the horizon.
So we lost side of it.
But we were like, hmm, interesting what that was.
But about 10 seconds later, the light comes back.
And this time, we noticed that it was coming towards us.
This little light was coming towards us.
Like, it was moving towards us.
And it gave me this eerie sense of feeling like it knew we were there.
Like, someone knew we were there.
And it knew that we on the mountain were aware of its prospels.
presence. So it kind of made my hair stand up as it started to fly towards us, I should say, I guess.
And all of a sudden, as it gets closer from the horizon, like the far out there, way out there,
like on the edge of the horizon, we can see as it gets closer, it starts just like taking shape.
And as it gets closer, we can see the light disappear. And all of a sudden, this,
up in the sky, this shape takes place. And the shape was like a triangle. And it gets close to us.
Like it starts to fly directly over us. Like of all places it flew, it flew right over us.
It wasn't a bird. It wasn't a kite. It was like a fucking aircraft. But a funny thing is,
I shouldn't even say this is funny. It was quiet. Like it just floated overhead. No sound.
And just a red blinking light at the tail just to make it look like, oh, it's an aircraft.
Really, you were a star that was like, who knows how many miles out, way on the edge of the horizon, like maybe 100 miles or so.
And all of a sudden you fly over and you're like, oh, I'm quiet.
There's no sound.
So I thought that was really interesting.
And we all looked at each other and we were like, uh,
what the fuck that we just witnessed and 15 seconds later something must have made a noise like for example
you know on the freeway there's like the metal guardrail to prevent you from falling off to the side or whatever
well sounded like someone took a rock and just threw it on it and just made this ripple noise
and we're like we are not alone so we got into the car and we left so i i think that after that
night after that experience it made me believe that aliens are real
And after now that the government is coming out with, oh yeah, aliens are real.
Yeah, they've been real.
You guys just have been covering it up.
So I thought that was a really strange experience that night just to see this aircraft,
shaped like a triangle.
It was a black aircraft shaped like a triangle,
had a red light near the bottom on the back there in the tail underneath.
Maybe three lights.
I can't remember.
But it was red.
And it was triangle.
It was black.
And it just flew overhead.
made no noise. Like, you know, when a plane flies over, any aircraft flies over, you can hear it. We didn't hear anything.
So that was like one of those moments in life where I will never forget. My friends still to this day
swear that what we saw was an alien aircraft and I believe it was. And my friend still to this day
can vividly explain in detail what they saw. So I was the only one who's seen it. We weren't drunk. We weren't high.
But another day, recently, probably like three years ago, here in Tacoma, Washington,
I was with my best friend, and we looked up in the sky.
We so happened to see this green, bright light, like a flash, just, like in just concentrated air, just flash.
We thought a transformer had blown.
We thought maybe it was like static electricity in the sky, but nothing.
Nobody reported anything.
There wasn't any explosions.
It was just a bright green flash.
and it just, there was no noise.
It was just a light.
There was no way explaining it.
There was, like, it was kind of hard to explain.
Like, if I didn't capture, if I captured a video, it would have been like, wow, great.
But, you know, it happened so quick.
So me and my best friend were like, what the hell was that light?
Like, we looked up on the news.
We tried to think of rational explanations of what it could have been.
But you know what?
I think it was aliens.
I think they were traveling through the universe, and they created this light that was so bright.
And it was green.
It was a green light.
Like, I'm not sure what kind of green, but it wasn't like a dark green.
It was more like a light, light green, you know.
And I thought it was a transformer that had blown and caused the electricity to, like, reflect in the sky or some shit, right?
But that wasn't it.
So there's a lot of occurrences in my life that I've noticed that are just unexplainable.
And in particular, that one night when I was in the Ice House Reservoir.
So I've seen like military aircraft that looked like that aircraft that I thought I saw that night in California, Ice House.
It was the same shape, same triangle.
And I thought it was a military aircraft.
But I was like, but aircrafts are supposed to.
produce noise. Like they have propellers of some type of fuel or turbine or some type of energy
source to move that aircraft and it's going to cause some type of noise, right? At least from my experience,
I've never heard of an airplane fly overhead dead silent unless it's gliding. But that's what it
sounded like. It didn't sound, but that's what it looked like. It was just gliding. Gliding overhead.
A big triangle aircraft. We couldn't see. It was just a silhouette.
flying overhead and it made no noise. I'm so freaked out. So like, we're going to put this to rest.
UFOs are real. There's no doubt about it. There's no conspiracy theories anymore. There's too many
evidence that's coming up left and right. And this is coming for someone who's just a normal guy.
Like, I haven't done my research. I haven't dug up any articles or anything. So if I'm saying
it's real and the government's saying it's real, I've seen some shit. My friend sees some
shit. Other people seen some shit. You've probably seen some shit. You're probably typing some shit
as I'm talking. Like I said, and it's real, guys. I don't know what else to say. Keep your eyes in the
sky. Hi, Ryan. My name is Heather, and I live in the Dallas, Texas area. Thank you so much for
considering me and allowing me to share my experiences with you and your listeners on somewhere in the
skies. Before I moved to Texas back in 1997, I lived outside of Cleveland, Ohio. I'm from a small town,
in about 45 minutes from Cleveland, but I lived close to downtown. That year, I had two UFO experiences.
One, the first one occurred in Runaway Bay, Jamaica. I had taken a short four-day, three-night weekend
vacation 25 years ago today. I took a friend of mine who was in a branch of the U.S. military.
It was a smaller resort about an hour from Ocho Rios. The first day, we met a British couple,
our age, so we piled around with them all weekend. On the second evening, we had something absolutely
crazy happened to us. We had found a cove the night before on the edge of the resort right on the
beach that faced north. We could sit there and talk and laugh, and we didn't really have to worry
about disturbing anyone. It was around 10 p.m. to 11 p.m. on that evening. It was a very clear sky,
bright moon, an unimpeded view of the sea melding into the north horizon. It was gorgeous.
Not being there for very long, we all noticed a very bright, very intense light coming from
the point of the horizon where the water meets the sky. As it started to approach us, we all
noticed that it was about 200 feet off the ground, which didn't really make any sense because it
seemed too low to be an airplane. It also didn't display any international flight lights that
all aircraft display. There was no flashing white, flashing green, or flashing red, which really
kind of stuck out to my military friend. As it came closer, we all saw very clearly a black,
metallic, large triangle with three white, what I would call recess-type lights in each corner,
and a solid larger red light in the center. As it approached us and then went over us,
we could see a waviness to the bottom of the object.
I couldn't tell if it was a texture or if it was the heat coming off the object,
but it just seemed really smooth and metallic black, no rivets anywhere.
It didn't seem like something that was manufactured by humans.
And as we watched, the object flew over us and made no noise whatsoever.
We all noticed at the same time that the low,
tide waves, the gentle waves lapping up onto the beach were louder than the object that was going
over us. We all turned and watched it head toward the foothills of the Blue Mountains, which were
behind us. And I think we all thought it was going to fly off because we actually didn't stay
turned around for very long watching it. When we all turned to face the ocean again within a minute
there was another very intense white light coming from the same position as we saw the first one.
And I think I was the one that said, I'm going to die if that is another one.
And it was exactly the same thing as the first, black triangle, 200 feet off the ground,
three white lights, a large center red one, both were very low within a minute of each other,
taking the exact same path from the exact same position from the north horizon.
They both passed us taking the same path in front of those mountains, not flying that quickly.
We were shocked, freaked out, and no, we weren't smoking pot because we were in Jamaica.
As the second joined with the first one in the position it was before we turned around,
we all freaked out even more, stunned that what we were seeing.
There were two triangles hovering in the background in front of these mountains.
The British people were joking about Agent Mulder coming running,
across the beach. I guess the X-Files had just aired in the UK. These two triangles met up in the sky
which looked like inches from each other from a distance. They sat there hovering for what I would
say was probably about 10 or 15 minutes and it didn't make any noise. Still, there's just in the
background hovering in front of these mountains. There's no flashing lights. Nothing ever really
change except they were fully hovering and there was no way that we can tell that they should be
hovering and then bam in a blink like a shot out of a gun one went to the right one went to our left
and boom gone gone forever there was no sonic boom it was as silent as it was when they approached
us we were all freaking out yelling with the two strangers who just experienced the same thing that we
did never had such a thing happen like this before
I think we were all completely shocked.
Two soundless black triangle-looking, very UFO-y-looking objects that just flew over us and hovered in the background and then in a blink were gone.
What I know now about said objects, I didn't find out until probably about 2002 after seeing a history channel show about Black Triangle UFOs.
These objects before us came from probably the Cuban Airspace.
They were flying south toward Jamaica as we saw.
stood on a Jamaican beach. I have to assume since Cuba was to our north, that it passed over
the ocean into a foreign territory. So I'm not sure back then what the USA was up to, or if this was
U.S. Black Ops. They certainly look different than the ones I have found more recently,
videos, picks, anything on the Internet in modern times. I was not a computer person. I didn't know
anyone that had a computer back in 1997, it was expensive. There weren't a lot of websites.
So it wasn't anything I really got into. So there weren't any type of Google searches or ways
I could figure out what had just happened to us. The world's internet was not at my fingertips
and neither was the world's information. My second experience happened September of 1997.
I was dating a guy from a small town called Worcester, Ohio. I was dating a guy from a small town called Worcester, Ohio.
I lived about an hour away, so I would have to stay over with him when I came out to hang out with him.
So I didn't have to travel back through the dark, through Amish country on these small, windy roads.
So that evening we had watched movies, went to bed, I don't think it was very late.
And in the middle of the night, the scariest thing that has ever happened to me took place.
I can remember vividly, and I don't know if this has anything to do with it, the exact dream I was having before I awoke.
I was dressed in Victorian clothing, a white, frilly dress, sitting in the back of an open carriage.
And what I know now was more than likely St. James Park in London.
I've been there in more recent years.
As I rode along in a horse-drawn carriage, a man dressed very smartly on top of a big black horse with a top hat and tails on approached us as our carriage slowed.
He tipped his hat and started to say something.
and then I woke up to the biggest nightmare of my life.
I was absolutely terrified, trying to grasp what was happening,
being blinded by a very intense, very sterile,
what I call white blue light.
It filled every inch of the room.
The outer areas of the room had a blue tinge,
but the center of the room was so bright I could see every detail.
Finding myself, I was flipped on my back
and not the way I'd fallen asleep.
This guy had a very crappy mattress that only sat on a box spring.
The mattress sat on the floor with no frame.
And the mattress also had this awful galley in the middle of it that made you roll into it even if you were on your back.
So you always had to sleep on your side, which was my left.
When my eyes finally focused, I saw three beings in the room.
And then I discovered that I was completely paralyzed.
and I was trying to fight to move and or scream, and I couldn't do anything.
And it felt like I was in a fight for my life.
Nothing was working.
It was like I was trying to keep my eyes open, but they were being forced shut.
There were two beings at the foot of the bed with what I would call two gray aliens.
They seem to be smaller, so I have to assume that there's different species out there.
In horror, I watched as the smaller one in front of me raised his left hand and extended three very long, skeleton-like, very thin fingers as I struggled to access the rest of the room.
I saw a larger one, a couple inches taller than the doorknob, standing in the open doorway of the bedroom.
His very defined shadow of his very thin body and this huge enormous head that shadow washed onto a very thin body and this huge enormous head that shadow washed onto a little.
the wall of now what was lit with the white blue light.
But the edges of the hallway I could see were pitch blackness.
Blackness was filling every corner outside of that small area of the wall.
I saw his head turn left and then turned right,
and he proceeded down the right out of view down the hallway.
I laid there struggling, sweating profusely,
crying hot, messy tears,
trying to watch what was happening, seeing my ex-laying to my right motionless on his right side.
I could hear and feel this humming that filled the room and my rapid heartbeat in my ears.
I finally thought I'm being distracted by all of this by what is happening visually.
So I just let my eyes close and I tried to focus in on some part of my body.
So I focused in on my right hand, which was paralyzed laying next to me on the bed.
If I could move a finger, I kept thinking maybe that'll help.
I need to see if I can reach out and touch my boyfriend.
I could see the picture of my hand in my head perfectly and was willing it to move and nothing was working.
And finally, in what seemed to be hours of struggling, covered in hot, sticky sweat, which was probably only a few minutes.
I finally was able to move the pinky on my right hand a millimeter.
And suddenly, just like that, it all stopped.
Like it was all sucked out of the window.
Boom, it was gone.
No more light, no more figures, no more humming noises.
I could feel I was totally free.
So I rolled onto my left side facing the wall.
I was completely sobbing uncontrollably when I heard three voices,
which I've tried to imagine how I would tell this story
because it doesn't make any sense to me.
forever I kept thinking that I only heard it in my left ear.
But my left ear was down on the mattress, so it didn't seem like that was possible.
But then I remembered I had the sensation in the front left lobe of my head that I can still
kind of imagine when I think about it.
I know now that this was something telepathic.
I heard a language I have never heard before and an octave too high for humans.
I heard words being said that I didn't understand.
until I heard simultaneously the English translation said in the same octave by the same three voices.
We will be back for you.
I laid there in the fetal position, too scared to move.
I sobbed for what seemed like hours.
I was too scared to wake up my boyfriend.
I was so afraid that he would not believe me, throw me out, or even call me crazy.
So I laid there trying to figure out what just happened to me,
knowing that I was wide awake this entire time.
I tried to process everything cataloging every moment.
Every detail as I laid shaking was going through my head.
Sobbing as quietly as I could for what seemed like hours.
I was trying so hard not to wake him up
until I watched dawn filter through the very same window,
awakening this gray Ohio morning.
Feeling very comforted that at least it was daylight,
and this event was over.
I finally couldn't lay there any longer.
He's still sleeping to my right,
so I wiggled off the edge of the bed,
walked through the apartment,
which is really weird,
knowing that some creature
just walked these same steps that I'm taking.
I found the front door,
and both locks were still locked.
Both things were in the locked position.
I went outside in his ratty concert t-shirt and boxer shorts.
I peered around the corner to the right of the house,
There was an abandoned factory with an empty parking lot.
That was the side of the house that the light had gone through the window.
There were no marks.
There were no street lights.
Nothing was there.
I don't know what I expected to find and still too scared to go inspect it closer.
So I sat down on his front yard and sobbed like a crazy person.
Hopinging, it was way too early for any of the neighbors to see me.
I was sitting on dewy grass as this light mist came from the,
morning all over me. Never have I done anything like this before, but it was like I needed to see
outside. I didn't want to wake him as weird as that sounds. This was a new relationship. I liked
this guy. Plus, in a weird way, the ground felt kind of grounding to me. I don't think I was
taken, and maybe they weren't even there for me. I don't know. I remember the very next day as I went
to leave in his very messy bachelor pad apartment. I saw a
sitting on a chair in the corner that I had never noticed before being over at his place.
It was called communion.
I didn't even know what that was.
I had never even heard of it, but the illustration sent ice cold chills up my spine.
I asked him motioning to the book, is this your book?
Have you read this book?
He said, yeah, you should read it.
It's a great book.
Hoping he would say something, like you'll never believe what has happened to me, which he didn't.
what he said has always stuck with me since that moment. As I motioned to the book with I'm sure a very
shocked look on my face, I said, has anything weird ever happened here before? And then he said,
you wouldn't be the first person to tell me something weird has happened here. I was totally
silent, wanted to laugh, but wanted to cry. I didn't even know what to say, so I left.
Then my third experience happened way more recently. I had moved to Texas. I had moved to Texas.
in 1998, and I live in the Dallas area since about 12 years ago.
I had yet another experience, but this one was in my backyard.
This is like number three.
My husband and I had been planting bulbs in her flower beds all day, and I remember the day
because it was Sunday, October 23rd, 2016, around 6 p.m.
It was the last day of the Texas State Fair.
So we had just finished a very long day of working really hard in the yard, and we were going to hang out in our backyard with our dogs.
When I heard my husband say, look at that weird drone over the neighbor's house, which took me a few seconds to even understand what he was saying.
And then he's kind of pointing and looking toward the neighbor's pecan tree.
So I was moving around in my yard to try to peer around this very tall, 100-year-old pecan tree in their backyard.
And then I saw it.
There was a large metallic gray, very dark gray, what I would call shield-shaped craft, hovering above my neighbor's backyard.
I watched it freaking out as it slowly moved from their yard into my yard over my husband and I to then slowly moving over to our roof.
It slowly pivoted when it got to our roof and it showed a curb space in the back of the craft.
The area suddenly lit up red and then fan back and forth like Kit from Night Rider.
It was segmented.
It was a segmented light that moved from each position left to right, lighting each one up red until it was solid red all the way to the right.
And then it would start back over to the left and continue the sequence.
I started screaming to my husband, what is that?
What that is that?
That is not a drone.
What are you talking about?
That is not a drone.
Oh my God.
it's recording us. From the front, it looked like a very small version of the stuff bomber until it
pivoted. My brain couldn't really make out what shape it was except for shield shape, because that's the
only thing I could make sense of, which I still have never found to this day on the web. No sound,
no propellers, probably about 50 or 75 feet off the ground. If it's a drone, that's fine. Just a little
creepy someone in the neighborhoods recording people in their backyards just would like to know what it was.
My husband and I watched as it slowly moved from the neighbor's giant pecan tree across the backyard to our house, which seemed like it only took maybe a minute.
It was moving so slowly.
And then when it moved over our roof line, it seemed like it barely cleared our second story home roofline.
It's mostly, I guess you would call it glided.
I don't know what the best word would be, but it went out of view on the top of my house.
and the house is so long and narrow, but it's a large house, that it had to go over several peaks of the roof.
So I thought, I'll get a much better view if I run to the front yard.
So I booked it, running as fast as I could to the front yard, which is probably about 50, 60 feet from the back to the front.
I was expecting to see it better from up there.
But when I got up there, to my surprise, it was not there at all.
I looked around quickly and then turned toward the store.
street and I'm still not seeing it anywhere. I even thought maybe it hadn't even gotten to the
front yard or it went back to the back. I wasn't really quite sure. Didn't have a phone to be able to
text my husband where it was. And then I happened to look down the side road beside us. And about a
half mile down the road, I saw it. I saw it move slowly, directly north of us. And I watched it for about
20 minutes from the front yard. And it just became this black dot on the horizon, backlit by a
big developing storm that was light gray that was moving in. I saw it bounce once and then it shot
straight up in the air and was gone forever. I observed air traffic above it and below it that I'm
assuming were landing planes going into DFW airport. I even called the non-emergency number of the
police hoping that someone had called it in. They hadn't heard a word. I called all three local
TV stations, two of which acted like I was a complete nutter. One was nice enough to say,
hey, if you hold, I'll call the airports. He came back about 10 or 15 minutes later and said,
well, neither DFW or Love Field showed anything on radar and haven't had any calls, but that's a
really weird story. And I was like, you have no idea how weird it was. It made no,
No noise when we saw it.
There were no propellers.
I didn't tell this guy that.
My second experience, I have tried to block out of my memory for almost 25 years, but I can't.
I think about it.
I dream about it.
I dream that I'm being sucked up in the air by my back, floating face down, arms extended, hands extended,
screaming for my friends to help me as they stare at me near the ceiling.
I have tried to research this experience as much as I possibly can.
I have tried to forget about it.
I've tried to make excuses for it.
But I know I was wide awake.
I know what I saw.
I know what I felt.
And I know what I heard.
Until recently, I never told a soul.
Not even my ex.
Not even my husband now.
Know the details.
It just felt ridiculous.
I thought no one would even believe me.
With my ex, we had just started dating when this occurred.
I'm hoping sharing my story will help others out there.
I also hope maybe my night tears will end.
And most of all, I also hope that maybe one day,
the more people share their experiences like this,
we maybe one day will know what has happened to all of us.
And the biggest one for me personally,
maybe the day will come that I no longer fear the night.
Thank you so much, Ryan, for allowing me to share my experiences.
I truly appreciate you considering me for somewhere in the skies.
And I really hope this will help.
other people who are dealing with the same things. Thanks so much.
Hi there, Ryan. This is Osvaldo. I'm calling from Vancouver, Canada. I have two sightings to share.
The first one, I suppose, yes, it happened in 2005 when I was visiting El Salvador. That's where I'm from.
And in the months of June, July, I was visiting my family.
And at some point in the month of July, I had rented out a hut, a very rustic place by the beach.
And this portion of the beach is along, you know, the coastline that's really kind of removed, a bit isolated from any sort of development or tourism.
It's a beach that's kind of populated by local fishermen and their families.
And it's a very rustic place off the beaten path, I suppose, right?
So this is back in 2005.
On the third night, I believe, actually it was the second night.
I had gotten into the habit of pulling a chair out from my hut.
and dragging it over to the beach.
When the tide was out, usually around 8 or 9 p.m.,
I got into, you know, stargazing mode, right?
Which was so much fun because it was such a beautiful place.
That night, it was a starry night.
No, you know, cloud cover, barely any whatsoever, right?
And I was just really serenely looking up at the sky into the horizon.
It was really dark by then.
And the sky is just full of stars.
And all of a sudden I see this light that it kind of, it kind of, the light became brighter, like it intensified.
And as it became brighter,
really quickly just started to shoot down as if it was going to crash into the ocean.
But all of a sudden, it made this like 45 degree angle upward.
And as it did that, it made this flash of lightning.
Kind of like, you know, in Star Trek, when the ships go into warp speed and they create this lightning at the end,
That's the closest I can describe what I saw.
There you go.
That's my popular culture reference for any Treki fans out there.
Anyway, but the whole thing was about three to four seconds.
And the entire, like, you know, it had this really accelerated movement to it.
Like, what was this thing?
I really don't know other than a UFO.
This is again 2005.
There was no, you know, in a country.
like El Salvador, like, our military, like, doesn't have, didn't have anything, like,
drone technology. Even back then, I don't know if, like, commercial drone technology was
available back then. But, you know, it's a poor country, so our military wouldn't have
that kind of technology. But the movement it made, it was just crazy fast, like, all in the same
speed. It was not a meteorite. This thing did not burn up. It just, you know,
started to shoot down in a very irregular manner.
Like, you had this irregular jerky movement, but really quick.
And it just showed up, and it did this, you know, flash of lightning.
That's not a meteorite.
They don't behave that way.
It was not a satellite.
Again, a plane totally discounted that.
And totally not a fisherman boat.
So I don't know what the hell that was.
But I was just astounded.
You know, it really, if anything, it felt like it was something out of this world because it was amazing.
And I just went to bed with the knowledge that I had seen something really amazing, you know.
And I put this experience on the shelf for the longest time because, I mean, as soon as it happened, I look back and there are no other witnesses.
It was just me on that beach.
And sure, I could have shared it with my family.
but I chose not to back then because like seriously, you know, El Salvador there, it's a very Christianized, very Christian country.
And, you know, they would have taken my story and just place it on a, you know, loony bin, you know, like, hey, man, where are you smoking that night or something?
But I, let me tell you, my mind was totally lucid.
I was in a, my state of mind was just, I was just very serene looking up at the stars.
and then I see this.
And, you know, before this incident, before this sighting,
I was open to the topic of UFOs, but I was never really someone that would go out and investigate it or really get into it, you know.
So I, again, I put that story on the back of my mind for the longest time until the last year in 2021,
which is when I had my second sighting.
And second sighting was in Vancouver, Canada, which is where I live now.
And so let me paint the scene.
Back then, in May of 2021, it was around 10 minutes to midnight.
Our apartment is in this block building, and we're up on the third floor.
and we have a balcony that's south-facing.
And in front of us, there's a parking lot
and these really beautiful tall maple trees, right,
that shoot up about, I don't know,
anywhere between 180 to 200 feet high, maybe.
And then you have a row of pine trees next to them,
about six or seven of them,
and they're smaller in height.
So I'm in my living room,
and all of a sudden there is a pie.
power outage. And I think to myself, oh, we haven't had one of those in a while. You know,
that's okay, whatever. And the thing about me is that I'm an eye owl. So I do stay up really late
and I was working most likely on something. And I go over to the kitchen and get a glass of water.
And then I told myself, why don't we just step outside and gaze up at the stars? You know,
there's less light pollution now that the lights are out in our building.
I step outside and I look over to the left. I look over to the right and both rows of houses next to our building, their lights are out, except for the building in front of us, you know, which is like maybe like a six-story high building and also newer.
And I thought, okay, so maybe it's just like a partial, like, you know, outage of our street block, whatever.
And, you know, not too long after I had stepped out of, out into the balcony, I've been, you know, looking up at the sky and not too long after that, like maybe like a minute or so of stopping outside, I see these three dots of light.
There were whiteish, yellowish in color.
and all I saw was these three lights in a triangle formation
just gliding across going southeast
just on top of our building
just kind of maybe gliding along our neighborhood
I don't know and he was just gliding silently
there was no noise to this thing
and yeah I guess
got really spooked out.
I was just massmarized by this.
It was just, I mean, what was this?
Triangle UFO?
I don't know.
It was hard to tell how big and how high the lights were.
But I do know that it went over those tall maple trees that I described earlier.
So it was going southeast and it disappeared over those tall, tall trees.
an entire thing, again, like three to four seconds.
But I remember just being really spooked out because just the series of,
just a sequence of events in which and how this happened, you know,
like was this coincidence or synchronicity, right?
Like, was this thing that, what caused the power outage in our building?
And for the rest of the row of houses next to our building?
Like, I don't know.
So I still ask myself that.
And, you know, I'm not a UFO investigator.
I didn't go out the next day to, like, you know, talk to, like, the, you know, BC Hydra company and, like, you know, hey, man, what happened last night?
What caused this power outage in our block?
Like, I had things to do, whatever, like, you know.
But it stayed in my mind.
I remember, you know, as it happened, I was really scared.
I don't know why.
I mean, back then in.
starting in 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic,
I for some reason really wanted to go back to my first sighting
and just kind of investigate that, the topic of UFOs.
It became like a hobby for me, like a pandemic hobby.
And so maybe this was a projection of my mind.
You know, maybe I projected something from all the information
and research that I had done about the UFO phenomenon.
So I don't know.
That's a crazy theory to think about.
But there's something about consciousness and how it affects people.
The way this one affected me, meaning the second one, was that with all the information that I had consumed about UFOs and the different literature that I had read, I was just really spooked out.
And as it happened, I remember I was really scared standing on that balcony.
just kind of wanting to communicate with it and just in my mind I was saying to myself or to it to
stay stay because I want to keep seeing more of it and but you just kept gliding along
he just went away over those tall trees it's hard to tell what that was maybe it was like
you know the size of an SUV like I couldn't really determine any shape but again
it was a triangle
information
and moving very slowly
and silently
but you know
come on like close to midnight
what's this doing
what's this thing doing
like flying over our neighborhood
at late that night
so I got really scared by that
and the next day
I just had to like tell my partner
about it like yeah
anyway I reported it
to move on
and other places
but yeah
you know
Overall, I think the first one was just astounding.
And the second one really, there was something palpable there
and how it made me feel.
I was basically afraid of it.
Anyway, you know, I really appreciate the work that you do, Ryan.
I think this topic, I think you're doing really good work.
I think this topic really challenges the status quo
of what we currently understand about, you know, the coffee.
cosmos and ourselves as human beings.
You know, I'm not saying that, you know, that the sightings that I had were of alien origin.
But let me tell you, man, the first one, it was truly something out of this world.
It was something that I had never seen.
But for some reason, after the second one, I have this uncanny feeling that it'll keep
happening again, that for sure I'm going to keep seeing or have.
more UAP or UFO experiences or sightings.
I can't tell you why that is, but I know it's going to happen again.
I just don't know when, and that's okay.
I just know that I have to just keep looking up and just pay attention to the night sky.
Hell, even during daytime, maybe something may happen, maybe like a day siding, right?
Anyway, that's all, Ryan.
Thank you, everyone, for listening to my story.
As Richard Dolan says, you know, keep fighting the good fight.
Bye, everyone.
Hey, Ryan.
Hey, somewhere in the sky's listeners.
I'm MJ from a spooky tells podcast.
That's E in front of spooky.
And I have a story for you all today.
I hope you enjoy it.
It's a story.
I grew up listening and it used to terrify me as a child.
So I hope you guys enjoy.
This story takes place in 1994 in the middle of nowhere Pueblo called Latinaja in the state of Sakatecas in Mexico.
Latinaja is in the municipality of Villanova.
According to the research of this little pueblo, it no longer has residence.
And as of right now, as far as I am aware, it's a ghost town.
not to be confused with another little town of the same name within the same state.
This dinah in particular is no longer registered as a town.
And the people who told me this story are near and dear to me,
so all the names will be changed as they wish to remain anonymous.
One night, Jose and his friend Miguel were on horseback.
They were returning from a neighboring town from a dance and seeing their girlfriends.
As they were crossing the road and fields in the distance,
they saw an airplane flying over.
When a light suddenly appeared over the airplane and engulfed it,
the airplane completely stops,
almost like it was locked in time and space,
not going up or down, back or forward,
just there hovering in mid-air,
with this light shining above it.
According to Jose, it couldn't have lasted more than 10 seconds,
and as soon as the light appeared, it vanished,
and the airplane resumed its flight.
Jose and Miguel were terrified,
because it made no sense.
Jose would go on to clarify
that Miguel and Hantonacro up with pop culture
as they lived in a farm town,
very rural, very third world country,
like way of living.
The only electrical thing in this town were the street lamps.
The houses and residents still used oil lamps,
and they were not influenced by alien and UNFOL culture
like many parts of the world.
No electricity. No TV.
Now, to return to the story,
Jose and Miguel depart from each other, each heading to their own homes.
When Jose reached his home, he went straight to the horse's stable.
As he was putting away his horse, Jose noticed that outside the stable became entirely lit like it was daylight.
He noticed that the light shining down on the stable was the very same light that paused the airplane in mid-air.
He described it as being similar to a spotlight, but on a much larger scale.
and just like with the airplane as soon as it came, it left.
Once the light was no longer shining down on the stable, Jose ran home.
The family guard dog greeted him outside the home.
He began rationalizing what he saw as the dog seemed unaffected.
He locked the iron screen door and the wooden door behind him,
leaving the guard dog outside.
His sister, his brother, and his parents are inside the home waiting for him,
and they notice he was shaken.
They asked what was wrong.
and Jose recounted his experience. A few hours later, everything seemed back to normal.
As they were getting ready to go to bed, their dog starts going wild outside, barking and growling, ready to attack something.
The family became startled. Maybe it was someone trying to take one of their animals.
To their horror, the family hears something fall on the roof, a very heavy thump.
something either fell on the roof or something jumped onto the roof
and this something starts walking across
and it seems to be bipedal
walking on two legs it was not a four-legged creature
from what Jose's sister says it sounded like this thing had a claws
with each step that was taken it had the sound of claws dragging across the roof
at this point the family is frantic
Jose and his brother grab their guns and ready for an attack.
Whatever is on the roof, if it comes through the ceiling or tries the door, they will be ready.
Meanwhile, the dog at this point is in fear, and it's no longer sounding angry, it's sounding afraid,
and it starts running and slamming into the front doors, charging at the doors over and over and over,
nearly breaking the iron-screen door and the wooden door along with it, whimpering, barking, and growling,
the dog is in complete hysterics.
when all of a sudden all the noises just stop.
The walking on the roof has stopped.
The dog has stopped.
Everything becomes silent.
They did not rest that entire night,
and when morning came, they opened their doors
and saw the dog was laying there on the floor dead.
No blood, no cuts, no wounds.
It looked like it was sleeping.
After these incidents, Jose has suffered,
and many people around the town
and the neighboring town see lights coming in and out of the lake,
that's at the edge of Latinaja.
One of these people who have seen these lights coming in and out of the lake has been
Jose's sister on two occasions.
Several other residents of the neighboring town as well.
So much so that they would wait out for any family or friend walking near this lake late at
night to make sure they got home safe.
And that is the story.
I hope you enjoyed listening.
It is a story that was retold over and over again to me as a child.
and it used to scare me so much.
But with that being said,
bye and stay as spooky.
Hi, Ryan.
My name is John,
and I experienced something absolutely extraordinary
with my mom
just outside of Casa Grande, Arizona,
a little less than a month ago.
And I'd like to tell you about it.
We have been spending time out in Arizona.
We're from California, just north of Los Angeles,
and I've been spending time out here in Arizona with my mom and puppies
doing a sort of artist retreat.
You know, we're making art, music, and now, I guess,
taking pictures of UFOs.
We're no strangers to this sort of thing.
I've personally seen about a dozen good UFOs in my life with, you know, details, lights,
you know, all kinds of stuff.
And I think I've seen a mix of government craft, ET craft.
We've just never gotten the opportunity to get it on film until now.
So on the 11th of May, we were here.
here, about 10 miles outside of Casa Grande, Arizona, in a retirement community, a 55-plus community
where my mom is renting a spot and she's got a trailer set up and it's pretty bare bones,
but it works. It's a nice little spot to get away and do something creative.
So we were, well, that day I had come into town to do some stuff.
And on my way back, the sun was going down.
And here, in this part of Arizona, the sky is massive.
In California, we have a lot of mountains.
And it just seems a lot smaller there.
Here, it kind of looks like the sky looks over the ocean.
It's just, you know, horizon to horizon.
It's massive.
And I noticed right away with the sunset that the clouds were looking weird that day.
They were crossing the entire sky.
They looked like almost like a dividing cell or something.
I mean, just massive clouds.
And I was already thinking, oh, yeah, there's probably like a mothership or something hiding in there.
And so I came back to the place and we decided.
A couple hours later to go walk the dogs to the dog park, which is right there by the complex we're staying in.
And my mom didn't normally bring her phone on such walks.
She was intuitively called to grab it.
I mean, we were looking at the clouds, and they were strange, and she thought,
okay, well, you know, we'll capture some interesting pictures of the cloud formations here
that were like interlocking right above our heads.
It was really weird.
And so she grabbed her phone and we took the dogs to the dog park.
And on our way back is when we decided to, she decided to grab her phone and snap some pictures of the clouds.
The clouds at this point were showing us pictures.
So it looked like a sonogram picture of a baby that my mother had lost many years ago.
And then it morphed into what looked like a gray E.T. head, you know, with the big black eyes and that sort of thing.
And that's actually the moment that my mom took out her phone.
And she aimed to capture that in her camera.
So she takes it out and she points it straight up into the sky above us.
These clouds, by the way,
They were only a couple hundred feet above our heads, and they were like gliding over us,
like on a piece of glass or something.
And then when we started seeing these images, the clouds were actually coming towards us,
like down towards us, towards the ground.
It was unbelievable.
I've never seen clouds, quote unquote, do this before my life.
And so she snapped six pictures over the course of 29 seconds at around 9 p.m.
on the 11th of May.
There wasn't any light pollution.
It was quiet.
Everyone in the complex was already asleep.
Really great conditions for taking pictures.
And she snapped the six pictures.
We didn't review the pictures at that time.
We just, we got tired.
We walked back to the place, and we fell asleep immediately.
And it wasn't until the next morning that we realized
what exactly we had caught in these photographs.
In fact, my mom almost threw them out.
The previous evening, she did see them as thumbnails in her phone,
and she thought that there was, you know, like light pollution
or something was happening in the photos that they were crap and they were trash,
and she actually almost threw them away.
Something inside of her was like, no, no, no, just hold on to these.
And the next morning we took a close look,
and were absolutely astonished with what we saw.
I should add, too, that when we were taking the pictures,
when we saw the images and the clouds
and they were coming towards us and all that,
we felt the whole time like they were craft up there.
It's just, you know, we just know it.
It's an intuitive feeling.
And when clouds like this happened,
which, by the way, have happened in our past,
and they've preceded these sorts of clouds
with the fingers stretching across,
they've preceded weird events in the nights that they've appeared.
So she knew right away something was up and I don't know.
The images, I mean, they speak from themselves.
In five of the six images, she caught this craft, which has rows of colors, of lights.
The thing we estimate is probably, I don't know, seven, eight decks tall.
I mean, it was massive.
If you extrapolate from where the camera position was and looking up into the sky and we caught the edge of this thing,
it's probably a couple hundred feet across.
And we did not see this thing with our naked eyes.
It was completely invisible.
We felt it up there.
But the fact that we actually got something in photograph,
that we couldn't see with our eyes is absolutely astounding.
It looks as if the craft were tumbling between dimensions or, yeah, I don't know,
maybe it was moving too fast for our eyes to see, but the camera shutter got it.
We really don't know.
We really don't know.
We don't know if this is government or if it's E.T.
but the pictures are extraordinary.
In the words of John Halloran from Mufon,
who gave us a prompt call for an interview
about all the details,
his word was that these photos are extraordinary.
And they are.
The sixth one in particular, where you can really see the craft.
If you zoom in on that,
there's a whole wealth of details there.
Porthole windows that are reflecting off the hall.
You can see the ridge lines.
You can see a pipeline going across.
You can see a braided not work on the bottom of the craft.
It's unbelievable.
So, you know, with this audio recording that I'm going to be sending you,
I'll send you the pictures and a little bit of analysis that we've done too.
but yeah, that's our experience that particular time.
Now, I will add that we've actually seen and recorded multiple UFOs here in Arizona.
On our drive back this time, we came here.
My mom photographed a UFO and then we went back home for a couple weeks,
and now we're back in Arizona.
and on our drive back, we saw a triangular UFO that flashed us for just a couple seconds.
It was too quick for her to grab her phone. I was driving.
But it showed us its bottom side. It was an orb of light. It was a white orb.
And then it morphed into a triangle that was facing us with a red light on one corner and green lights on the other two corners.
No red death light in the middle.
So I don't think this is necessarily a TR3B.
But we did see that.
And then it turned into a red orb and flew off, you know, into the distance.
So she actually got some of that on video when it turned into the red orb.
And then we saw, on our last trip here, we also saw another UFO over the complex.
And it was just a, it was a white orb that was flashing all these different colors.
And it looked kind of iridescent.
And I got a really good video.
of it. The thing is, compared to these other pictures that we got, you know, I'll put it this way,
the video footage would have excited us before we got these images. But in comparison, it's,
you know, whatever. But yeah, we actually do have another UFO video, too, that we could send
you if you were interested. But anyway, that's pretty much a story. I hope I didn't leave anything out
and yeah, thank you for taking the time to listen to this.
We want to get this out there to the world.
We want the world to see these images,
but it seems like a lot of people out there can't see it,
or maybe they're hypnotized, or maybe the images are too good a quality.
Maybe they look like bad CGI or something,
and people just, they take one glance at it and go,
yeah, no, it's not.
But it's actually absolutely extraordinary, the detail.
So, yeah, thank you.
And have a good one.
Hi, Ryan.
Thank you for having me on Somewhere in the Skies.
I'm an avid listener, and I can't wait to tell you my story.
So my name is Dennis.
I live in Southampton at the moment, but I used to live on the Isle of White,
which is a little island of the south coast of England in the UK.
and my story basically was what kick-started my absolute fascination with aliens, with UFOs,
with the paranormal, because it was something that I just couldn't explain no matter how hard I'd try.
I always had a fascination in that side of things, but this really kick-started it for me.
And ever since then, I've been really sort of like looking for paranormal stories,
and it's why I came across this podcast a few years ago and I listened to it all the time.
So I used to take my dog for a walk.
We used to go up to this castle in Newport on the Isle of Wight.
So as you can imagine, the castle sits way up above the town.
It's a very small town, it's the county town of the Isle of Wight.
And I would take my dog up there each evening.
This was happening in October, so it was fairly dark at this point in time.
I like going up there because you could see it all around the town, all the lights,
and it was really relaxing, really calming, a little bit spooky, but also a great walk.
So I got to the top where the castle is, with the car park.
is and then just turned to my right where I could oversee the forest to the front of me and the
main town below and to the right and all of a sudden I could see these four dots in the sky and they
were fairly large so larger you would larger than what you would see with an airplane with their
lights and each one was pulsing in a different in like formation pulsing so one would pulse one
color then the next one then the next one and the next one and I was like oh that's interesting
and I was trying to work out what it was.
I was like, what could that be?
And all of a sudden they started moving apart
and then moving around each other
and sort of taking different places in the formation.
And I'm like, well, this is strange.
This is very interesting.
And then they were moving in more complex fashions
and I was like, this is the craziest thing I've ever seen.
How, you know, how am I going to explain this?
And then after a few minutes of that,
they just moved really high, further in the sky
and sort of faded a bit
and then just completely disappeared.
And it was the most interesting and crazy experience that I've ever had
and really made me think that there is definitely something out there.
And ever since then, I've just kept my eyes to the sky all the time
and I've had, you know, a number of times where I've seen things that I can't explain
and a number of stories that I may have to send in at some other point.
But yeah, it was a fascinating experience and really put me into that mode of whatever else is out there
and I've been researching and been very interested about it since then.
Just thought I'd like to share my story with you.
Thank you so much for having me on.
Keep up the great work.
Hey, Ryan.
Thanks for having me on Somewhere in the Skies.
My name is Kendra, and just as a very short bio,
I'm a professional terror reader and paragraph artist.
I've had an 18-year affinity with witchcraft, spirituality,
and I've been obsessed with UFOs and the possibility of extraterrestrial beings
since I first saw the alien autopsy video when I was like 10,
and the internet happened.
I've had two sightings in my life that I'll just briefly try to relay for listeners.
My first sighting must have been 20 years ago when I was just outside of the store with my mom.
There was a fleet of white spheres in the sky.
Even as a child, I knew that these objects were flying abnormally,
but the coolest part was that they were doing synchronized formations.
Fast forward to the summer of 2021 in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado where I used to live.
I was outside on our deck looking west when I got a sparkling object flying in a straight path.
across the sky. I watched it for a few seconds before I decided that it wasn't the reflection of a plane.
I pulled out my phone and started recording, and though this is purely speculative,
it's almost as if the object knew I started recording because it disappeared a split second later.
I knew I had witnessed something substantial because of the way it disappeared, like it just disintegrated.
I'm sure many of your listeners have watched the latest season of Skinwalker Ranch,
but it was exactly like the UFO that was seen during the laser triangle experiment and dissipated in the same way.
I actually contacted Candace from the show because I had never seen anything so similar to what I had seen.
I also think it's important to note that Skinwalker was about four hours west from my location.
Anyway, I filed a report with Mufon and their field investigator determined that this object was indeed a UFO.
I have a split-second video of that amazing experience, but in the slowed-down version of that video,
I can see that the object was spinning or pulsating, and then it did indeed just poof from existence.
For me, even as a child, I've never questioned the possibility that we are not alone in the universe.
After spending years as an amateur researcher regarding this subject, I feel like we were at the point of beating a dead horse.
The evidence is stacked and I'm hopeful that peaceful disclosure will happen during my lifetime.
I also feel like humanity is at a tipping point and regardless of how much us UFO nerds want the world governments to come forward, we really need them to.
Take from that what you will, but I think it is really important to navigate the future of this.
subject without bias and without fear. Mars isn't attacking. So that's my little UFO story. Thanks
again for having me on the show. Hello, Ryan. My name is Will Murray. I'm a professional writer and
novelist. In the middle 2000s, I was coming back from a writing assignment in Vancouver, Canada,
and flying over the continental United States in a passenger plane. I was seated in a window seat on the
starboard side of the plane. I had been reading a book and put it down to give my eyes a rest and
started staring out the window. It was a sunny day and there were a number of clouds marching along
in the sky. One cloud in particular drew my attention. It had the shape of a derby hat,
essentially a large dome probably five or six stories tall and sitting on.
on a cloudy-looking plate.
But what drew my attention was that on either side of the dome,
jutting out at equal angles,
were these two vaporous horns or jets.
They weren't moving or anything.
They were just frozen vapor.
And there was something about the symmetrical look of the cloud
that captivated me, so I was watching it.
And as I watched it, my eyes went to a small black object about the size of a helicopter that looked like an oblong pill.
I remember at the time thinking it looked like a time release capsule except it was shorter.
And I asked myself, what is that?
And my mind did what exactly the Navy female pilot years later who observed a Tick-Tac did.
I kept trying to pattern match it with something I recognized.
I asked, is that a helicopter?
But, of course, a helicopter can't fly that high.
They don't pressurize them.
Then I thought, is that a small plane?
But it had no wings, no portholes, no external engines.
it was just a black oblong approximately the size of a helicopter, a small helicopter, I guess.
And it seemed to be passing in front of this cloud or approaching it.
It was not moving very quickly.
Normally when I see a small plane flying, when I fly commercial, the small plane moves pretty fast.
This was loafing along a little like a blimp, but they don't make blimps that are pressurized.
even if they did, I suppose,
we'd still need some externals
to make it look like a blimp.
I watched this object for approximately a minute or so,
and even though I had a cell phone on my pocket,
I didn't think to pull it out and take a picture.
That's how quickly it happened.
And once we pass the object,
I kept asking himself, well, what was that?
Now, I've had an interest in UFO since the 1960s.
It's been an on and off interest,
and I've always wanted to see one.
And even though apparently I did see one,
it was several days before I decided in my mind,
yeah, that's what it had to be,
some kind of unidentified flying object
because it didn't look like anything that should be up at 35,000 feet or so.
I should mention that a few years, a very few years,
before this, I had trained with Dr. David Morehouse in remote viewing, and he ran us against
some targets of this type, which awakened or reawakened my interest in the subject a little,
but I don't think there's any connection between the two events.
How I feel about it now is that I clearly saw a Tic Tac, even though the Tic Tacs weren't
in the public consciousness at that time.
and I would think I was confused because I thought that UFO shapes typically were saucer or spherical or egg shaped or cigar shaped.
And I had never, I don't recall ever reading about one that was pill shaped, but here it was.
I think in my mind at the time and now to this day, I associate the,
black object with the cloud as if there was a connection with it.
This may be a bit of intuition.
I don't know.
It may be imagination.
But it seemed to me that the black pill was moving or gravitating toward the cloud as if there was something inside it.
It wanted to connect with or it wanted to hide in it or something.
One could use their imagination and say, well, maybe there's a larger ship inside the cloud
the cloud has that shape to mark it as an unusual cloud so the black object could find it,
but I would think any advanced craft at that time wouldn't need such a visual identification.
But nevertheless, I connect the cloud with the object in a way I can't fully explain
and certainly can't verify, except it was the cloud in its unusual configuration that first grabbed my attention.
That's it. Thank you.
Hey, Ryan, and the Somewhere in the Skies podcast, my name is John, and I am excited to finally detail a couple incidents for you all.
I know time is limited, so I'll try to make it quick.
So I was 18 in 1985, living in Angel Fire, New Mexico, the Marino Valley.
and it's a north to south valley with the tallest mountain in New Mexico, Wheeler Peak, looming over it.
I was on top of the Angel Fire ski area, basically staying overnight camping, had a fire with a good friend of mine,
and we were watching satellites and, you know, a lot less satellites in the 80s, but, you know, watching satellites and stuff fly overhead and just kind of enjoying a super late evening.
out in the mountain air, and we saw a very bright light across the valley from us, and it was,
you know, hugging the mountain, and sometimes would go behind some of the peaks and then pop back up,
so we would sort of go in and out, but it wasn't like zooming around and doing anything incredible.
So, you know, we couldn't make out what it was.
It was just a bright light, and it seemed to be kind of, you know, cruising around in an area.
So we thought at first maybe it's a helicopter looking for a lost hiker or something.
But it kept sort of going south towards where the Paulo Flasado Pass comes over from Touse.
And, you know, it got to almost directly across from us, which I would imagine is about two and a half to three miles from my location.
And then all of a sudden it just stopped moving, shot straight up into the sky way higher than the mountains,
and then immediately took off to the south in a blink of an eye.
I mean, we're talking, you know, thousands of miles an hour.
I mean, I have no idea how fast it was going, but it was gone.
And my friend and I freaked out, of course, got in our blazer and started, you know, barreling down the mountain, scared to death because we were sure, oh, God, you know, this thing's going to come back.
What is it?
It's a UFO.
But, oh, oops.
I forgot the most important part of the story.
So we see the thing zip off.
Gone.
It's gone to the south.
and then we see two lights
to the very north of the valley flashing
and they're coming very fast in our direction
and all of a sudden we hear the jet noise
and they must have been F-16s
because they had full afterburners
they only had one jet engine
and they were hauling from the north
in the direction
and this is like two three in the morning very loud
must have woke up the whole valley
rages through the valley
in the direction of this craft, but the craft is long, long gone.
So my friend who was with me, his parents were divorced.
He was living there with his mother in Angelfire,
but his dad was an Air Force, I don't know, Colonel or something,
but he worked in the Air Force, and he did, it wasn't SR71,
but he did some sort of test piloting stuff.
And so he went to go visit his dad,
and he told him about our sighting and asked his dad about it,
And his dad just was like very deadpan and was like, son, you're not crazy.
You saw what you saw.
This is the most highly, uh, held secret in the entire military.
And I don't want you to ever talk about it yet.
And so, uh, to this day, when I talk about it with him, he gets really cagey.
He doesn't like to talk about it.
Um, uh, you know, and that's, that was my first interaction with a, uh, with a UFO, uh, that I saw.
Um, and it was being trailed by Air Force.
jets. So, you know, here I am 18 years old and this situation really blew my mind. I mean,
I didn't know what to make of it, except that it pretty clearly in my mind created the thought
that, okay, well, A, UFOs are real. B, the government obviously knows about them because, you know,
and they can track them on radar because those jets never physically saw the craft because they
never got close enough. It was long gone before they came in. So that means they had to be tracking it
on radar and had to be vectored in to the very location. So it made me know, okay, not only can we track
the UFOs, do the military chase them, but they were outclassed by them, obviously. I mean,
they were completely outclassed. And the government is hiding this knowledge. So that was the start
for me when I was 18, realizing, okay, wow, UFOs are real. The government knows. It's a cover-up.
The military, you know, is outmatched.
So I went to the University of New Mexico and I started going to the library and I started
studying the phenomena, the Blue Book files, the old string-filled files, you know, Stanton Freeman,
the Roswell stuff.
I mean, I started getting deep, deep down this rabbit hole, but I started learning early on,
you know, wow, you know, there's such a crazy stigma to this.
You can't talk to anybody about it because when I would bring it up to anybody,
friends, family, they would just think I was crazy or making it up and they just shit on me.
So I was like, okay, I can't really talk to anyone about this, but I got to figure this out.
So I started going and doing lots of research at the library and started realizing that anyone who got too close died by mysterious circumstances.
So when I started learning that people who got too close to the UFO topic and got really deep in there were getting suicided or mysterious car crashes and this and that,
I became very nervous about what I knew, who I could talk to about it, and so I was very apprehensive and would not speak to very many people about it.
It was very nervous if I went to any kind of UFO conferences about just starting up conversations with people because I wasn't sure who was legit and who was a plant.
So then I got married in the mid-90s, 95, and I had known my wife all through high school, so we're together.
start telling her my UFO story. Now, I've seen a few other things, a couple other incidents over the
years that we won't go into here. So I'm bringing these up to her and, you know, typical people think
you're crazy. And she's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, you saw UFO. Okay, I'm sure. Yeah, right. And so she never really
believed me. And so I was always like, you know, this really sucks. Even my wife who loves me and trusts
me doesn't believe me. I mean, this sucks. And so then we saw an orb together, like a white
egg-shaped UFO flying across the sky south or north of Santa Fe. And we were driving in the car
heading to Taos. And I saw this thing and it was coming, it was coming from the Los Alamos area.
It was hauling ass, maybe about four or five hundred miles an hour. So pretty damn fast.
you know, maybe 1,500 to 2,000 feet up, not very high.
We were watching it, watching it.
I'm driving, and then she sees it just disappear.
I look back, it's gone.
And that was the first one that she kind of saw.
But once again, it was just a white thing in the sky, hauling ass, and then it disappeared.
So we're like, well, maybe it was a balloon.
Maybe it was a balloon and it popped.
Maybe it was this.
She was like, well, I saw it take off.
But, you know, I don't know what I saw.
So this wasn't enough for her to be like, okay, confirmation.
I saw something. So it was more like, well, that was weird, but whatever.
So then January of 1997, and so this to me connects to the Phoenix lights, because
Tows, New Mexico is not, as a UFO flies, very far from where the Phoenix Lights signings were.
Those were in March. So I'm talking late January in the, I don't know, maybe the 27th-ish,
around there, a week before the Winter X-Games, because that's where I was headed.
we see in Taos, New Mexico, a very bright light come around Taos Mountain.
It was nighttime, but it was dusk so that in the west there was still light in the sky.
So you can see the outlines of the mountains and clouds in the distance, whatever,
but directly over me, pitch black stars.
But you could see the outline of Taos Mountain and lower than the mountain.
So it had to be around 2,500 feet up.
I mean, it was not higher than the mountain.
It came around the mountain.
It was this very bright light.
And my wife's in the car with me, and I had a video camera with me.
And I'm like, oh, my God, what is that thing?
What is that?
Let's look at it.
So we keep driving towards our house, which we're getting closer and closer in El Prado, New Mexico,
and it's coming right towards us.
And there's a lot of cars on the street.
I mean, other people, no one seems to be noticing this thing.
It's just a bright light.
There's no shape.
And I'm like, what is this thing?
It's coming right at us.
And so pull off the road into my driveway.
I jump out, I grab my video camera, turn it on, and brahm, battery's dead.
Freaking dies.
You know, it's dead.
So I don't get anything on the camera.
And then I look up, my wife's right there, and flying above us is the biggest freaking thing I've ever seen in my life.
I mean, it was so huge.
I mean, it was at least like three aircraft, you know, like carriers.
I mean, it was giant.
It blocked out the stars.
as it went overhead.
I was mesmerized
looking directly up
into the bottom of this craft,
which was just like warping lights,
colorful kind of rainbow lights.
It looked like, you know,
the heat shimmering coming off of a hot cement,
so the heat was shimmering,
so the lights were shimmering,
and I was just like, like aghast
as this thing blocked out the sky
as it went completely over our head,
silent as the night went right over our head,
and then kept going,
over towards Taos Pueblo and over the mat. So I'm like, oh my God, oh my God, you saw that, you saw that.
And then all of a sudden we hear, and coming up behind it, come in the same basic direction, two more fighter jets.
And they're following it, but this giant thing is not going very fast. It's not trying to escape. It's not accelerating away.
It's just staying on its same trajectory and its same path. And these fighter jets go right over us loud.
And they're heading towards it, but they're catching it. So they've peaked.
So they peel off because they didn't want to like overtake it, it seemed.
They didn't want to fly over it or catch it.
So they kind of peeled off.
And then both the jets and the thing went over the mountain and we couldn't see them anymore.
And I was just shocked and dismayed and so excited that I had seen it with my wife.
I was more like, oh my God, see, look, I'm not crazy.
I'm not crazy with her than I was even like blown away by what I had seen.
Now, I pictured it as a triangle, but I wasn't really looking at the details of the shape.
I was mesmerized by the lights underneath and just the size and the quiet.
It was so quiet as it went over.
But my wife said she was actually looking into end, trying to figure out how big it was and what the shape was.
She said it seemed like a giant boomerang, but possibly triangle.
But a month and a half later, when the, you know, Phoenix lights went off.
I mean, we both were like, oh, my God, that's exactly what we saw.
So I don't know if it's a precursor to the Phoenix lights.
I don't know if it was the same craft or what.
But it was giant.
It was quiet.
It was triangular or boomer-shaped.
You could have landed freaking airplanes on the top of this.
I mean, it was so huge.
So that is my, the basics of my two big stories that include fighter jets.
Um, you know, only one of them had any kind of acceleration or what would, uh, Lou would call the five observables.
My first one in 85 that's kicked it all off. But, uh, these things are flying around out there.
Our military is aware of them. Um, we, you know, to me, there's not an issue of proof or belief.
Um, I've seen this stuff. So, you know, I know it's real. Um, I've spoken to many people since then.
Uh, you know, I have spoken to researchers. I've spoken to David Fraver.
I've spoken to, you know, many other military pilots.
This is way more common than people have ever known.
Best kept secret on the planet.
And thank you, Ryan, and your podcast listeners for listening.
And, you know, I have lots of other interesting stuff.
But those are the two big ones that I thought I would share with your listeners.
So thank you, Ryan, and thank you, listeners.
Keep the faith and quit fighting out there on Twitter.
Let's keep our shit together and let's get this solved.
Casey, my Twitter is at Avillion.
In July of 2013, right around 4th of July time frame,
I worked for the Indianapolis Museum of Art as a campus police officer.
At around 3 o'clock in the morning, I was dispatched along with my partner to go check out some residential areas,
known as the Golden Hill Estates.
It was a site we had to check out pretty much nightly to make sure there was no activity going on.
My partner and I split up to come around a park and meet back at the curve where it kind of forks in the road.
When we got there at a house that was at a mansion that was undergoing renovations,
There were two small craft, probably five feet in diameter, two to three feet tall,
kind of resembled a kind of like an Asian-style partition in the sense that it looked like
it was wood and paper.
They were hovering just motionless about two to three feet.
feet off the ground when we came up at which point.
Then they started floating probably two to three seconds after we saw that.
They started floating up.
From there, once they got to about 10 feet maybe, the lights kicked on.
And basically the bottom half that looked like the paper partition with kind of,
it almost looked like burnt wood as the frame.
That's when the lights kicked.
picked on and then they started dancing kind of back and forth with each other.
They were just, I don't know how to describe it, they were moving perfectly in sync with
each other. One would go port, one would go starboard, and then they'd swing back around,
vice versa, kind of dance in front of each other, and then back to the rear.
Then they started moving pretty rapidly.
We kind of took off after them out of the neighborhood.
then they kind of hit straight on Michigan Road,
a very major road in Indianapolis.
At which point we lost them.
We didn't see them.
They took off real fast, kind of parallel with the road,
not gaining any altitude.
And then probably three, four seconds after that,
about maybe five to six miles down Michigan Road,
we saw two lights just shoot off into space.
The whole ordeal lasted maybe two, three minutes.
When I radioed back to dispatch, they said we had been marked out for maybe 20 minutes.
Definitely didn't seem like that long.
My initial reaction was to shoot it.
Then I was just like, what am I going to say?
I'm shooting at a balloon, a UFO.
I don't know what this is.
I'm shooting in a residential area, at things in the sky.
So that quickly left.
I just got the feeling like you would be a laughing stock.
Like, that just seems ridiculous.
I also got the, like, in the day since,
I got the overwhelming feeling like it would be on the news,
soon, like everything would be revealed, not to worry.
My partner even called me a couple weeks later and was like, what do we do about it?
And I was just like, I don't know.
So let's do nothing, pretend it never fucking happened and move on with life.
And that's what I did for several years.
I lasted on the police department about a month after that, maybe two.
from there my life just completely changed.
I am not the same person anymore,
just a completely different person.
I couldn't even relate to the person I used to be.
Yeah, that's all my story.
I'm pretty well open for questions.
Hi, Ryan, and listeners of Somewhere in the Sky's podcast,
my name is Mike Jameson,
and I live in Yucaya, California.
There are two incidents in recent years
that I wanted to share.
The first one was
during April
of 2018.
I was sitting up quietly after midnight
by a west facing
window with the blinds up.
Suddenly a bright white
light blast through the window,
not a diffuse beam,
but thick and concentrated.
There's no possible ground source
for this light
with rising force,
with a
rising forested hill to my west only a gap in the tall trees I get up and look out
over a tree line behind a lonely house in the hill I see from a position to the left
rear of the scene a large squarish backside of a large appearing craft
silently hovering it is completely quiet and still a mumble this isn't normal
and don't go outside as the craft had already shined a light into my place.
I definitely shut down and resumed sitting quietly in the chair.
And that incident, I kind of kept quiet for a couple of days,
shared it with a couple of friends, asked them if I should share it with people,
and they said no.
But I decided to eventually share it publicly,
which I did on social media.
In June of 2020, one night, I was out for a late night walk to the river.
I noticed a darkish silver sphere of light just hovering over a notch in the ridge nearby about two miles away.
The apparent size is a dime at arm's length.
The object begins to dart very rapidly.
and apparent size
described as at arm's length.
The object begins to dart very rapidly
over the area of this ridge
and then comes to rest again
just above the ridge.
Then it slowly ascends at a 45-degree angle
a couple hundred feet up and then stops.
After a minute, an identical object
just suddenly appears about 100 feet to the right
in a little above of the first object.
Now I'm completely stunned.
Both objects then elegantly descend in tandem
and hover over the notch and the ridge.
I get excited, raise both arms and think loudly,
come here.
Surprisingly, they both flare up dramatically.
At first it looked like they were edging forward,
but no, it's not what was.
happening. A little bit later the original sphere just instantly instantly
disappears and I see a pencil dot-sized light manifest over a different ridge to the
south a few miles further away. Then the second object does this. Very shortly after
the first object instantly manifest at the original spot on the ridge and the
second soon followed. They do this back and forth several times spanning a significant area evident
with my side-angled view. And then they are gone. Back home a few minutes later, I checked flight
radar 24 and see nothing in the general region. This is during a time when the nearby
Yucaya Airport was fully closed for runway appears. Thank you for listening. Hello, Ryan. My name is Frank.
I'm an attorney from the Philadelphia area, and my personal encounter with a flying vehicle or whatever
occurred around 1977.
My rock band was playing in Wildwood, New Jersey in November of that year, and we finished at 2 a.m.,
and my bandmate and I drove back from Wildwood, New Jersey to Philadelphia.
After we got onto the Atlantic City Expressway for a few miles,
we suddenly saw a large black triangular something floating across the highway.
It was about 75 yards ahead of us.
At that point, my car engine ground to a complete stop.
It was about 3 a.m., and no other cars were on either side of the expressway that night.
So my buddy Rich and I jumped out of my car and watched this thing literally float across the road.
it looked like it was about five miles an hour
it was a light on each point of the triangle
and then we watched it disappear over the tree line
at the far lanes of the expressway and was gone
and we looked at each other pretty shocked
I guess in the back of my mind I thought
it has to be an experimental plane
but when we got back into my car
I turned the ignition on and my car started right up
so we looked at each other
and started laughing, like disbelief.
So the next day, or later that day, when I woke up, I called the FAA,
and I finally got through to a lady who, after I told her what happened to us, she said,
well, we haven't had any other reports, but if we do, you know, give me your number,
and I'll call you and let you know.
Well, that never happened.
So in my mind, I figured, well, it has to be an experimental plane.
You know, because there's been an air base outside of Atlantic City for years,
so I figured it had to be an experimental plane from the air base outside of Atlantic City.
So for years, I never mentioned what happened to anybody other than the guys in my later band.
Because we actually, I wrote a song about it maybe a year later,
and we performed it in Wildwood, actually.
actually in
1978.
So for years
I never mentioned
to anyone else
what
Rich and I saw
that night
because I didn't
want anybody to think
we were nuts
or high.
We're drunk
that night.
So Rich and I
decided to start
another music trio
years later
had to be
around 2020.
We started a
trio with a
female singer
and us.
I'm a drummer and he was a keyboard player.
So then all the Ferroar started about the UFO sightings in the media.
The Pentagon report came and it was just a lot of media hype.
I started to watch some documentaries.
I got more fascinated by it and I couldn't believe some of the things I saw in the documentaries
He's reminded me of the triangular spaceship we saw that night, 1977, you know.
So for the first time in a practice in 2020, I told Rich and our female singer what I had seen,
but was too embarrassed to tell anybody for all these years.
And suddenly Rich says to me, well, who do you think was sitting next to you when you saw it?
And I blurted out.
You were there with me that night?
He says, yeah.
I said, thank God.
I thought I was alone that night, so I asked him to recall what he saw, and it was exactly
what I remembered.
And in fact, he added that the thing that freaked him out the most was that the large
aircraft that we saw flew by, made no sound.
So that was pretty amazing, you know, to find that.
Thinking about all of it recently, I mean, I always felt like there was a, there was a lot of
obviously superior intelligence in the galaxy.
And it's not a surprise to me, given the size of the universe, that we could never really
think that we're alone.
And so with all these documentaries, I really felt like, you know, what we saw that
night was probably a UFO.
That's how I feel about it.
And especially when I saw the Navy pilots on 60 Minutes come out and show the videos that they
saw while they were flying on a mission or whatever in practice in California.
So as a result of that, we did, my other band, you know, wrote a song about what we saw.
So we performed it in 1978, and this past year we revised it and we actually put it out on
Spotify and Amazon, you know, it's called Look to the Sky, Philly Mix.
And, you know, it's a song of hope.
that if these UFOs were really a danger to us, we know it by now.
And I don't think they can be from Russia or China
or else they would have used their superior intelligence on us.
And I guess the song really meant to me
is a song of hope because I think these aliens
who are obviously superior to us get upset about all the wars that are happening
and all the things that are happening in the world,
they may finally appear and tell us to cool all these wars
and maybe cool Mr. Putin down.
So that's about it.
That's my story.
