00:00:29,230 --> 00:00:31,580
Federal agents, why would
they still be here if they...
4
00:00:34,820 --> 00:00:36,410
Why would I make them
so uncomfortable?
5
00:00:46,460 --> 00:00:47,590
Who are you people?
6
00:00:52,980 --> 00:00:56,640
So, what do you think
is the biggest threat right now?
7
00:00:56,670 --> 00:01:00,330
I think the biggest threat
is the FBI, the NSA,
8
00:01:00,370 --> 00:01:02,400
um, and their counterparts
in foreign governments.
9
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,650
I mean, these are all,
essentially, you know,
10
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:06,920
companies, right?
11
00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:09,170
They try to justify their
budgets in various ways,
12
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:10,720
often by scaremongering.
13
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:23,420
♪ Whoo
14
00:01:23,460 --> 00:01:24,980
♪ Difference is
between you and me ♪
15
00:01:26,180 --> 00:01:27,810
I make this look good.
16
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,150
What are the Men In Black?
17
00:01:30,190 --> 00:01:33,500
People have been reporting
their own Men In Black experiences
18
00:01:33,540 --> 00:01:34,920
and eyewitness accounts
19
00:01:34,950 --> 00:01:38,370
since the beginning
of the UFO cover-up history.
20
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,720
The burning question
in most people's minds
21
00:01:40,750 --> 00:01:44,170
surrounding the infamous
MIB accounts is,
22
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,410
what are the Men In Black?
23
00:01:46,450 --> 00:01:48,100
Well, the Men In Black
is a concept
24
00:01:48,140 --> 00:01:49,620
that's been in the UFO field
25
00:01:49,660 --> 00:01:53,250
since, really, the beginning
of the UFO field essentially.
26
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,560
Um, and there is
a weird thing about it
27
00:01:56,590 --> 00:01:58,910
because there's always been
two different components
28
00:01:58,940 --> 00:02:00,820
to this phenomenon.
29
00:02:01,150 --> 00:02:04,020
Um, there are cases
where a UFO witness
30
00:02:04,050 --> 00:02:05,460
or someone who
has some connection
31
00:02:05,590 --> 00:02:07,780
to the UFO phenomenon,
32
00:02:08,610 --> 00:02:11,440
uh, is then accosted
33
00:02:11,470 --> 00:02:14,780
by, usually, two individuals,
34
00:02:14,820 --> 00:02:16,610
often in pairs,
sometimes singular,
35
00:02:16,650 --> 00:02:18,860
sometimes even more than two,
but often, two.
36
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,860
And there are times when, uh,
37
00:02:22,900 --> 00:02:24,520
very, like, ordinary,
38
00:02:24,550 --> 00:02:27,800
like human-looking
intelligence types
39
00:02:27,830 --> 00:02:29,590
approach someone
40
00:02:29,630 --> 00:02:34,180
and either warn them
off of their investigation,
41
00:02:34,220 --> 00:02:36,600
or will actually make it
very clear to them
42
00:02:36,630 --> 00:02:40,050
that they're dealing
with a UFO phenomenon.
43
00:02:40,090 --> 00:02:43,610
But in all cases,
the idea is to scare off
44
00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:47,060
or intimidate the witness
so that they don't pursue
45
00:02:47,090 --> 00:02:48,950
whatever it is that
they're looking into.
46
00:02:58,690 --> 00:03:00,830
Historical accounts
of the Men In Black
47
00:03:00,870 --> 00:03:03,490
recall the overwhelming
sensation of fear
48
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,280
experienced by those
who have had prior encounters
49
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,630
with UFOs or something
out of the extraordinary.
50
00:03:09,670 --> 00:03:12,290
This fear
is a tool used to suppress
51
00:03:12,330 --> 00:03:15,470
an incredible UFO event
from the public.
52
00:03:15,500 --> 00:03:17,260
What are their true goals?
53
00:03:17,300 --> 00:03:20,470
Are they outdated military
relics from the past?
54
00:03:20,510 --> 00:03:23,650
Or are they covertly
influencing today's society
55
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,750
through misinformation,
fake news?
56
00:03:26,790 --> 00:03:29,760
The earliest recorded encounter
with a man in black
57
00:03:29,790 --> 00:03:32,000
was in 1947.
58
00:03:32,030 --> 00:03:34,760
Harold Dahl, a conservationist,
59
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,390
was near the shore
of Maury Island in Washington.
60
00:03:38,420 --> 00:03:43,700
Dahl's job was to retrieve
serviceable lumber,
61
00:03:43,740 --> 00:03:48,260
that was often just floating around
in the water back in those days.
62
00:03:48,290 --> 00:03:49,780
And he would bring it back,
63
00:03:49,810 --> 00:03:51,640
and that would be
their business,
64
00:03:51,670 --> 00:03:53,090
that's their business model.
65
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,510
And so Dahl is out on a boat,
uh, for this purpose
66
00:03:56,540 --> 00:04:00,440
with his teenage son
and dog, actually.
67
00:04:01,310 --> 00:04:04,240
And he sees six discs...
68
00:04:19,220 --> 00:04:22,360
...in the air. We're talking,
this is June, 1947.
69
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,430
This is actually, uh,
right before,
70
00:04:25,470 --> 00:04:29,820
a couple of days before Kenneth
Arnold's famous sighting of flying saucers
71
00:04:29,850 --> 00:04:32,850
over by Mount Rainier
in the state of Washington.
72
00:04:32,890 --> 00:04:35,170
So, uh, just a few days
before that
73
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,000
Dahl is out in his boat
in the water
74
00:04:38,030 --> 00:04:40,450
and he sees
these six disc-like objects,
75
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,620
one of them's in trouble.
76
00:04:53,810 --> 00:04:55,700
And it's, uh, wobbling
and it's...
77
00:04:55,740 --> 00:04:58,090
It seems to be losing
its stability.
78
00:05:10,060 --> 00:05:13,240
And the other discs
come toward it,
79
00:05:13,270 --> 00:05:15,210
according to his description,
80
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,180
and this disc that's in trouble
releases material
81
00:05:19,210 --> 00:05:23,320
that, uh, almost looked like
some kind of slag, that is, uh,
82
00:05:23,350 --> 00:05:28,050
like a rocky type of, uh,
material that comes out.
83
00:05:28,910 --> 00:05:30,600
And according
to what Dahl said,
84
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,570
some of this material
hit his son,
85
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,500
injuring his son's arm
86
00:05:34,540 --> 00:05:37,370
and supposedly
killed his dog.
87
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,020
And then after the object lost
its material,
88
00:05:40,060 --> 00:05:41,890
it regained its stability
89
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:46,200
and all of these objects
then, uh, departed.
90
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:52,240
So Dahl, uh, spoke to his
supervisor, Fred Crisman.
91
00:05:52,280 --> 00:05:54,800
Here's where the Men In Black
scenario comes in
92
00:05:54,830 --> 00:05:56,010
with Harold Dahl.
93
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:57,730
The next day...
94
00:05:57,770 --> 00:06:00,150
What it comes down to is,
he's at... There's a diner.
95
00:06:00,180 --> 00:06:04,910
There was a diner in that area where
he's having breakfast the next day,
96
00:06:04,950 --> 00:06:08,670
and he has a conversation with this
mysterious man he's never met before.
97
00:06:08,710 --> 00:06:11,920
Dahl initially expected
this man was a lumber dealer,
98
00:06:12,820 --> 00:06:14,470
and he was expecting just to do
99
00:06:14,510 --> 00:06:17,230
a standard business
arrangement with this guy.
100
00:06:17,270 --> 00:06:19,170
He deals... He dealt
with strangers all the time
101
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,480
who were interested in lumber.
102
00:06:21,790 --> 00:06:23,930
It turns out this man
was nothing of the sort.
103
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,830
This man then relates
every single thing
104
00:06:26,860 --> 00:06:28,590
that had happened
to Dahl the previous day.
105
00:06:30,070 --> 00:06:32,630
And he knew all about it,
106
00:06:32,660 --> 00:06:35,320
uh, to Dahl's shock.
107
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,430
I mean, that would be a shocking
thing for anyone to experience.
108
00:06:38,460 --> 00:06:41,020
And this mysterious man
essentially said, Look,
109
00:06:41,050 --> 00:06:43,290
you're just going to
leave this alone
110
00:06:43,330 --> 00:06:45,850
and you're not going to pursue
this in any way whatsoever,
111
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,230
if you know
what's good for you.
112
00:06:48,260 --> 00:06:52,130
And so, uh, that's an intimidating
experience for so many reasons.
113
00:06:52,170 --> 00:06:55,030
You can imagine,
poor Harold Dahl thinking...
114
00:06:55,060 --> 00:06:56,270
This is 1947.
115
00:06:57,170 --> 00:06:59,070
You're in America in 1947,
116
00:06:59,100 --> 00:07:00,450
you're not under the assumption
117
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,900
that you're living
in a surveillance state.
118
00:07:02,930 --> 00:07:05,390
And so, imagine the shock
he had to have felt
119
00:07:05,420 --> 00:07:07,530
thinking, Wait, what?
How do you know
120
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,110
about anything that
happened to me yesterday?
121
00:07:11,010 --> 00:07:12,080
So, there's that level
122
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,050
and then there's the implied
threat from this man,
123
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,330
which just added to it.
124
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,500
Dahl did not have
in his possession,
125
00:07:19,330 --> 00:07:20,780
uh, the slag at the time.
126
00:07:20,810 --> 00:07:23,200
There was an enormous
amount of this stuff.
127
00:07:23,230 --> 00:07:25,300
So, like, we're talking
128
00:07:25,340 --> 00:07:28,130
much more than any one person
could carry around with them.
129
00:07:29,310 --> 00:07:32,170
Um, the bulk of this ended up
in the possession
130
00:07:32,210 --> 00:07:34,930
of Fred Crisman, Dahl's boss.
131
00:07:34,970 --> 00:07:37,210
And eventually,
the United States Air Force
132
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,140
sends two men
133
00:07:39,180 --> 00:07:42,840
to investigate and retrieve
whatever this material is.
134
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,120
And they actually
do get to do this.
135
00:07:47,150 --> 00:07:52,810
And they load all of this slag
material onto an Air Force transport...
136
00:07:52,850 --> 00:07:54,700
Actually, this is Army
Air Corps at the time.
137
00:07:54,740 --> 00:07:56,370
This is just before
the Air Force
138
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,920
has become a independent,
unified entity,
139
00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:01,820
separate from the Army.
140
00:08:01,860 --> 00:08:06,100
So they come up from
McChord Airfield in California,
141
00:08:06,140 --> 00:08:09,070
to acquire this material,
and they do,
142
00:08:09,100 --> 00:08:13,700
and on their way back
from Maury Island,
143
00:08:13,730 --> 00:08:15,970
their plane catches fire
and goes down and they die.
144
00:08:17,220 --> 00:08:18,250
That's what happened.
145
00:08:18,780 --> 00:08:19,790
Uh,
146
00:08:20,150 --> 00:08:21,740
and after that I...
147
00:08:21,770 --> 00:08:23,660
I don't know what happened
to the slag material
148
00:08:23,700 --> 00:08:25,290
or whatever this was,
149
00:08:25,330 --> 00:08:27,850
but their plane crashed.
150
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,090
What is the true mission
of the Men In Black?
151
00:08:31,130 --> 00:08:33,160
Is it the suppression
of information
152
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,890
regarding UFOs
and extraterrestrials?
153
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,000
Or is it to aid them
and further their agenda?
154
00:09:18,930 --> 00:09:21,250
So, relating to the story of
a man named Albert Bender
155
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,520
who also had
a very interesting experience,
156
00:09:23,560 --> 00:09:25,660
which actually coined
the phrase "Men In Black."
157
00:09:25,700 --> 00:09:28,980
Bender was one of the earliest,
158
00:09:29,010 --> 00:09:33,220
uh, organizers of, kind of,
civilian UFO groups.
159
00:09:33,260 --> 00:09:36,190
There was the International
Flying Saucer Bureau.
160
00:09:36,230 --> 00:09:39,330
Uh, it was a publication
that was quite successful
161
00:09:39,370 --> 00:09:41,330
by 1952 standards.
162
00:09:41,370 --> 00:09:43,850
You know, printing
out the publication,
163
00:09:43,890 --> 00:09:46,340
mailing it out and getting
subscriptions that way,
164
00:09:46,370 --> 00:09:48,380
it's not easy. It wasn't
easy to do back then.
165
00:09:48,410 --> 00:09:51,900
Albert K. Bender founded the
International Flying Saucer Bureau
166
00:09:51,930 --> 00:09:55,110
in 1952,
during the big UFO flap.
167
00:09:55,140 --> 00:09:57,490
Now, this was a phenomena
that he had been studying
168
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,280
and following for years
169
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,080
and decided that
there needed to be
170
00:10:01,110 --> 00:10:03,770
one centralized location
171
00:10:03,810 --> 00:10:07,080
to put all of this information
that had been gathered.
172
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:08,880
But he was doing
a pretty good job.
173
00:10:08,910 --> 00:10:12,160
Now, 1952 was a very big year
for UFOs in the United States.
174
00:10:12,190 --> 00:10:14,160
A very, very big year.
175
00:10:14,190 --> 00:10:16,580
Um, you know,
according to Project Blue Book,
176
00:10:16,610 --> 00:10:19,340
which was doing investigations
and taking reports,
177
00:10:19,370 --> 00:10:21,060
that was by far
the biggest year they had.
178
00:10:21,100 --> 00:10:23,790
Yeah, you could say that
Project Blue Book was, uh...
179
00:10:23,830 --> 00:10:25,270
You could say the first AATIP.
180
00:10:25,310 --> 00:10:28,660
You know, the Advanced Aerial
Threat Identification Program
181
00:10:28,690 --> 00:10:30,160
that we've learned about
since then.
182
00:10:30,630 --> 00:10:32,770
But in Blue Book they, um,
183
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,110
had over 1,500 UFO reports
for that year, which...
184
00:10:36,150 --> 00:10:37,630
This is all pre-Internet.
185
00:10:37,670 --> 00:10:41,260
To get that many reports that
people send in is... It's a lot.
186
00:10:41,290 --> 00:10:44,780
A lot of those were very
intense military encounters.
187
00:10:45,500 --> 00:10:47,470
Very well documented.
188
00:10:47,500 --> 00:10:50,160
Uh, this is the year that
for two weekends in a row,
189
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:54,410
flying saucers were seen over the
Capitol in Washington, DC that summer.
190
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,960
It was the summer in which
the United States Air Force
191
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,550
held an enormous
press conference all about this.
192
00:11:01,730 --> 00:11:04,420
It was the year in which,
if you were to go into
193
00:11:04,450 --> 00:11:07,110
Wright-Patterson
Air Force Base's, um,
194
00:11:07,140 --> 00:11:08,290
Project Blue Book Office,
195
00:11:08,430 --> 00:11:10,690
according to Edward Ruppelt
who was running it back then,
196
00:11:10,750 --> 00:11:12,440
he said,
If you were to come in here,
197
00:11:12,460 --> 00:11:14,720
you would have thought
there was an invasion underway.
198
00:11:15,290 --> 00:11:16,950
It was that intense.
199
00:11:16,980 --> 00:11:19,500
Uh, there were a lot of people
in the military
200
00:11:19,540 --> 00:11:23,090
who actually believed that the
secret was going to come out that year.
201
00:11:23,780 --> 00:11:25,680
That's how big it was.
202
00:11:25,710 --> 00:11:28,720
So in the midst of all that, you
have a young guy like Bender
203
00:11:28,750 --> 00:11:33,200
who is investigating this
on his own, and he's,
204
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,660
you know, getting contributions
from other writers,
205
00:11:35,690 --> 00:11:37,620
and he's got
a decent publication going.
206
00:11:37,660 --> 00:11:39,250
It's quite successful.
207
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,730
Now, this blew up and went
international immediately.
208
00:11:42,770 --> 00:11:46,010
Within that first year,
he already had offices
209
00:11:46,050 --> 00:11:49,220
in the UK and also Australia.
210
00:11:49,260 --> 00:11:51,360
And you have to realize,
211
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,810
this is long before
the Internet,
212
00:11:53,850 --> 00:11:56,990
cell phones
and our current technology.
213
00:11:57,020 --> 00:11:59,300
He was doing all of this
through snail mail
214
00:11:59,330 --> 00:12:02,340
and, if he could afford it,
long-distance telephone calls,
215
00:12:02,370 --> 00:12:05,270
back when you had to pay
long-distance charges.
216
00:12:05,310 --> 00:12:07,580
So, on a very limited budget,
217
00:12:07,620 --> 00:12:11,240
he was able to make
this very large organization
218
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,040
that was compiling
all of this information
219
00:12:14,070 --> 00:12:16,660
on UFO activity at the time
220
00:12:16,700 --> 00:12:19,420
and also producing a newsletter
221
00:12:19,460 --> 00:12:22,320
that would get
mailed out as well.
222
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,500
And then, seemingly
out of the blue in March, 1953
223
00:12:25,530 --> 00:12:28,360
he just shuts the whole
thing down and just runs away.
224
00:12:29,230 --> 00:12:30,710
And no one hears
from Albert Bender.
225
00:12:30,750 --> 00:12:32,230
He just makes
this quick announcement,
226
00:12:32,260 --> 00:12:35,780
I'm done. We're not doing
this anymore. See you.
227
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,370
Nobody really knew
what truly happened.
228
00:12:39,410 --> 00:12:42,900
Gray Barker, a writer
and publisher at that time,
229
00:12:42,930 --> 00:12:44,790
also involved in
the UFO community,
230
00:12:44,830 --> 00:12:47,280
tried to get
some details out of him
231
00:12:47,310 --> 00:12:50,730
and published a few, uh,
scant details
232
00:12:50,770 --> 00:12:52,530
during the mid-1950s
233
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:55,670
but never really
got a clear answer.
234
00:12:55,700 --> 00:13:01,640
But then, in the early 1960s,
a little over 10 years later,
235
00:13:01,670 --> 00:13:05,990
Gray Barker published a book
by Albert K. Bender called
236
00:13:06,020 --> 00:13:08,200
Flying Saucers
and the Three Men
237
00:13:08,230 --> 00:13:10,340
where Albert K. Bender
told his story
238
00:13:10,370 --> 00:13:12,270
about what had
really happened to him.
239
00:13:12,300 --> 00:13:14,960
And, um, nine years after that,
240
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,720
in 1962, Bender wrote a book
241
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,760
called Flying Saucers
and the Three Men
242
00:13:18,790 --> 00:13:21,870
and he gives a... The story
about why this all...
243
00:13:21,900 --> 00:13:23,800
Why did he shut it down
in 1953, and...
244
00:13:24,900 --> 00:13:26,870
Uh, here's where we get
into a definite
245
00:13:26,900 --> 00:13:30,110
paranormal description
of the Men In Black.
246
00:13:30,150 --> 00:13:34,020
Now what Bender claimed
is that he started being visited
247
00:13:34,050 --> 00:13:36,530
by three strange men.
248
00:13:36,570 --> 00:13:40,090
He would go into his bedroom
at night and all of a sudden,
249
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,750
three shadowy figures would
materialize through the walls.
250
00:13:44,780 --> 00:13:47,340
Now these figures
were very dark in nature.
251
00:13:47,370 --> 00:13:50,760
They were wearing hats,
almost like a fedora style,
252
00:13:50,790 --> 00:13:53,860
and they had glowing eyes.
253
00:13:53,900 --> 00:13:56,380
Now, when I first
heard this story,
254
00:13:56,420 --> 00:13:59,040
coming from a paranormal
background like I do,
255
00:13:59,070 --> 00:14:01,630
I immediately thought of
shadow people,
256
00:14:01,660 --> 00:14:05,220
the hat-wearing shadow entities
that many people talk
257
00:14:05,250 --> 00:14:08,010
about observing
and having interactions with.
258
00:14:08,050 --> 00:14:13,090
Now, Albert K. Bender believed that
these were actually extraterrestrials.
259
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,060
That they had come
to warn him off
260
00:14:16,090 --> 00:14:17,710
of all the work
that he was doing
261
00:14:17,750 --> 00:14:20,960
and these guys are the reason
why he disbanded
262
00:14:20,990 --> 00:14:23,030
the International
Flying Saucer Bureau.
263
00:14:23,060 --> 00:14:25,100
Now, other people
hear this story
264
00:14:25,140 --> 00:14:28,170
and they believe
this is a Men In Black story.
265
00:14:28,210 --> 00:14:30,730
That it was the Men In Black
that had arrived
266
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,900
and warned him off of all
of his flying saucer research.
267
00:14:34,940 --> 00:14:37,390
Now, with Bender,
what he believed that
268
00:14:37,420 --> 00:14:41,010
these entities were,
that they were ETs,
269
00:14:41,050 --> 00:14:44,020
they were extraterrestrials
from some other world
270
00:14:44,050 --> 00:14:46,950
that had come to our planet
271
00:14:46,980 --> 00:14:50,440
to harvest resources
down in Antarctica,
272
00:14:50,470 --> 00:14:53,990
where they were harvesting
these resources out of the water.
273
00:14:54,030 --> 00:14:58,510
They were here on
a 15-year mission to do so.
274
00:14:58,550 --> 00:15:01,030
And Albert Bender
could not say anything
275
00:15:01,070 --> 00:15:05,350
about the true nature
of what he had observed,
276
00:15:05,380 --> 00:15:08,490
who he was interacting with
and why he had disbanded
277
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,350
the International
Flying Saucer Bureau
278
00:15:10,390 --> 00:15:13,800
until these ETs had left Earth.
279
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,980
Which is why, several
years later, in the 1960s,
280
00:15:17,010 --> 00:15:18,810
he came forth with his story
281
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,950
and published the book
through Gray Barker.
282
00:15:20,980 --> 00:15:23,640
He noted that they had red eyes.
283
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:25,540
So any time
you're going to see a being
284
00:15:25,570 --> 00:15:27,680
that can mysteriously
enter your room
285
00:15:28,230 --> 00:15:29,750
and they've got red eyes,
286
00:15:29,790 --> 00:15:31,270
I think the implication
is going to be
287
00:15:31,300 --> 00:15:33,510
that these aren't quite
from our neighborhood.
288
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,170
They're from somewhere else.
289
00:15:35,690 --> 00:15:36,720
So, Bender...
290
00:15:37,660 --> 00:15:41,560
You know, it's tough enough
for people to accept
291
00:15:41,590 --> 00:15:44,250
this ordinary paranormal
element of the story,
292
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,180
and that's difficult enough.
293
00:15:46,220 --> 00:15:48,800
Then he added
that they gave him...
294
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:50,740
Well, they gave the reason
295
00:15:50,770 --> 00:15:52,810
why he couldn't
investigate this,
296
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,880
and they, according to Bender,
they said,
297
00:15:54,910 --> 00:15:58,500
Well, we're mining
under in Antarctica.
298
00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:02,650
And this is very important
and we don't want you
299
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,580
to disturb this
and cause us any trouble.
300
00:16:04,610 --> 00:16:07,550
And they gave him, according to
Bender, they gave him a medallion.
301
00:16:08,620 --> 00:16:10,590
And stated,
302
00:16:10,620 --> 00:16:14,180
When this medallion disappears,
that will mean that we're gone.
303
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,010
And then you can talk about us.
304
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:18,660
You cannot talk about us
until then.
305
00:16:19,940 --> 00:16:23,010
And according to that reasoning,
306
00:16:23,050 --> 00:16:27,710
the medallion, uh, disappeared,
I guess, in the early 1960s,
307
00:16:27,740 --> 00:16:29,150
prompting Bender
to write his book,
308
00:16:29,190 --> 00:16:30,880
which was published in 1962.
309
00:16:31,780 --> 00:16:32,810
And, you know, I mean,
310
00:16:34,780 --> 00:16:36,540
it's not difficult
to understand
311
00:16:36,580 --> 00:16:39,410
why people would have a
very hard time to believe that.
312
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:41,410
Uh, where's the evidence?
313
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:42,890
Oh, well,
the evidence disappeared.
314
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:44,070
No medallion.
315
00:16:44,210 --> 00:16:47,310
Antarctica, like,
especially in 1950s in...
316
00:16:48,660 --> 00:16:50,030
You know, there
would be no reason
317
00:16:50,070 --> 00:16:52,800
anyone would possibly think
that there was work going on
318
00:16:52,830 --> 00:16:57,040
in Antarctica, the most remote,
desolate part of the planet.
319
00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,530
Uh, pretty fantastic.
320
00:16:59,570 --> 00:17:02,260
Nowadays, uh,
there's all kinds of talks
321
00:17:02,290 --> 00:17:03,670
and rumors about Antarctica
322
00:17:03,710 --> 00:17:05,360
in the UFO field.
It never stops.
323
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:11,060
Fully illuminated, round object was
hovering silently over the missile silo
324
00:17:11,090 --> 00:17:13,540
and shining a light
down onto it.
325
00:17:13,580 --> 00:17:17,650
And then from this dead stop,
it shoots off to the east,
326
00:17:17,690 --> 00:17:19,930
uh, just like, now you see it
now you don't.
327
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,110
This planet is being visited
by beings from another world.
328
00:17:27,730 --> 00:17:31,080
In 1964, Dr. Robert
Jacobs was in charge
329
00:17:31,110 --> 00:17:34,840
of the optical instrumentation
of ballistic missile testing.
330
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,090
There, he recorded
footage of an ICBM
331
00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:41,230
and was surprised
to find the extraordinary.
332
00:17:41,260 --> 00:17:44,160
Here he recalls the events
in detail.
333
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,340
And flying downrange, we've got
all three stages of powered flight,
334
00:17:47,370 --> 00:17:51,790
and as the, uh, dummy warhead
and the package flew on downrange,
335
00:17:51,820 --> 00:17:54,340
we were all celebrating the
fact that we had, uh, seen a thing
336
00:17:54,380 --> 00:17:55,550
and accomplished
the mission.
337
00:17:57,110 --> 00:18:00,450
So, another interesting story concerned
a man named Dr. Robert Jacobs,
338
00:18:00,490 --> 00:18:04,940
who was a highly qualified,
uh, scientific professional
339
00:18:04,980 --> 00:18:07,630
who in 1964,
he was very much involved
340
00:18:07,670 --> 00:18:08,880
in film recording
341
00:18:08,910 --> 00:18:10,950
of missile launches,
342
00:18:10,980 --> 00:18:13,570
uh, out of White Sands
Proving Ground
343
00:18:14,120 --> 00:18:16,120
in New Mexico,
344
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,050
where, uh, ballistic missiles
were being tested.
345
00:18:18,610 --> 00:18:20,300
And what they would do is
346
00:18:20,340 --> 00:18:21,890
they would launch
these missiles
347
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,100
and then record them.
348
00:18:38,940 --> 00:18:40,010
...and flying downrange,
349
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:41,840
we got all three stages
of powered flight
350
00:18:41,980 --> 00:18:44,220
and as the dummy warhead
351
00:18:44,260 --> 00:18:46,330
and the package
flew on downrange,
352
00:18:46,360 --> 00:18:48,950
we were all celebrating the
fact that we had seen a thing
353
00:18:48,980 --> 00:18:50,570
and accomplished the mission.
354
00:18:50,610 --> 00:18:53,710
When I got back to the base
with the film the next day,
355
00:18:53,750 --> 00:18:57,170
I was called into the office
of Major Florence J. Mansmann,
356
00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,310
and there were three people
in gray suits standing in there.
357
00:19:00,340 --> 00:19:04,520
There was a 16 millimeter
camera and a screen set up.
358
00:19:05,150 --> 00:19:07,530
Major Mansmann said,
Lieutenant, sit down and watch this.
359
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,630
And he suddenly said,
Just watch this.
360
00:19:13,110 --> 00:19:14,180
And as I watched,
361
00:19:14,220 --> 00:19:16,940
the warhead, the dummy warhead,
362
00:19:16,980 --> 00:19:20,220
the shaft that was put out
in front of it as the decoy
363
00:19:20,260 --> 00:19:25,300
to deflect the Russian
anti-missile missile tracking radar.
364
00:19:26,230 --> 00:19:28,470
And during one of these tests,
365
00:19:28,510 --> 00:19:31,340
the missile just went
completely haywire
366
00:19:31,370 --> 00:19:34,200
and didn't perform as expected,
it crashed.
367
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,900
And on review of the film
the next day,
368
00:19:37,930 --> 00:19:41,930
what Jacobs and his supervisor
who was a major,
369
00:19:41,970 --> 00:19:46,040
noticed that there
was an object, a UFO.
370
00:19:47,150 --> 00:19:48,870
Everything was flying along
and suddenly,
371
00:19:48,910 --> 00:19:50,630
in the same direction
this stuff was flying
372
00:19:50,670 --> 00:19:52,950
at about 8,000 miles an hour.
373
00:19:52,980 --> 00:19:54,980
The object came into the frame,
374
00:19:55,020 --> 00:19:57,400
shot a beam of light
at the warhead,
375
00:19:57,430 --> 00:19:58,430
flew up to the top,
376
00:19:58,470 --> 00:20:00,120
shot another beam of light
at the warhead,
377
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:01,880
flew around at the direction
it was flying,
378
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,780
shot another beam of light
at the warhead,
379
00:20:03,810 --> 00:20:06,550
flew down, shot another beam
of light at the warhead,
380
00:20:06,580 --> 00:20:09,410
and flew out the same way
it came in.
381
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,210
Well, I don't see why
didn't you see this
382
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,410
when you were shooting it?
383
00:20:13,450 --> 00:20:16,590
Well, it was, uh, 600 to
800 miles away from us.
384
00:20:16,620 --> 00:20:18,250
Like a saucer
type of an object
385
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,590
that was clearly interacting
with this missile.
386
00:20:23,110 --> 00:20:26,250
And it was when this object
appeared, the missile went...
387
00:20:26,290 --> 00:20:29,980
And I think it shot some,
like a laser or a beam.
388
00:20:30,020 --> 00:20:33,120
I think it was
a very well defined
389
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,990
laser type of a beam that
was directed at this missile.
390
00:20:37,020 --> 00:20:39,650
And at that moment,
the missile went off course
391
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,930
and just crashed.
392
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,310
Well, first of all
Major Mansmann said to me,
393
00:20:44,340 --> 00:20:46,590
What was that? Were you guys
screwing around up there?
394
00:20:46,620 --> 00:20:48,180
-I said, No, sir,
395
00:20:48,410 --> 00:20:50,160
Then he said, Then tell me
what that was?
396
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,410
I said, We got a UFO.
397
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,240
After choosing
to discuss the event,
398
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,040
Dr. Jacobs reports
disruptions in his daily life.
399
00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,010
People calling at all times
of the day and night
400
00:21:00,050 --> 00:21:01,260
threatening his life,
401
00:21:01,290 --> 00:21:04,120
which has escalated
into property damage.
402
00:21:04,150 --> 00:21:06,430
Intimidation is
one of many techniques
403
00:21:06,470 --> 00:21:08,190
used to instill fear.
404
00:21:09,370 --> 00:21:10,610
And he said, Lieutenant,
405
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,610
you are never
to speak of this again.
406
00:21:13,650 --> 00:21:16,510
As far as you're concerned,
this didn't happen.
407
00:21:16,550 --> 00:21:20,140
Eventually, Major Mansmann
confirmed Dr. Jacobs' claims
408
00:21:20,170 --> 00:21:23,350
of a UFO interacting
with the ICBM.
409
00:21:23,380 --> 00:21:26,000
The major also disclosed
that two agents
410
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:27,900
who were not the CIA
411
00:21:27,940 --> 00:21:30,250
took the footage
and altered it.
412
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,530
All film evidence
of the UFO
413
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,530
and its interactions
with the missile were missing.
414
00:21:35,570 --> 00:21:38,570
The Major reported
that one agent said to him,
415
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,470
That leaves you off the hook,
416
00:21:40,500 --> 00:21:43,230
but not off disclosure,
understood?
417
00:21:43,260 --> 00:21:45,200
Somehow the Major
had said to Jacobs
418
00:21:45,230 --> 00:21:47,020
that these men told him,
419
00:21:47,060 --> 00:21:51,960
they'd erased the flying saucer
from this film.
420
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,850
And they said, You're off the
hook, but you're not off of disclosure.
421
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:55,960
In other words,
422
00:21:55,990 --> 00:21:58,960
you're not in trouble now
because we've cleaned the film up,
423
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,380
but don't you talk about it.
424
00:22:01,110 --> 00:22:04,530
That's 1964 and, uh, Jacobs,
425
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,460
then you fast-forward
426
00:22:07,490 --> 00:22:09,560
to the disclosure project
with Dr. Steven Greer.
427
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,600
We're talking late 1990s now,
when Jacobs
428
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,470
did an interview with Greer
and talked about this event.
429
00:22:16,500 --> 00:22:18,370
And that was published
in Greer's book,
430
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,060
I think the following year,
in 2000.
431
00:22:21,060 --> 00:22:24,300
And what Jacobs said
in the aftermath of that
432
00:22:24,340 --> 00:22:28,340
was that he was subject
to a range of harassment
433
00:22:28,380 --> 00:22:30,100
type of activities.
434
00:22:30,140 --> 00:22:31,760
Some of these things
would include, uh,
435
00:22:31,790 --> 00:22:35,730
threatening phone calls
at all times of the day
436
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,040
and, uh, even to vandalism
against his property,
437
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,660
property damage
438
00:22:40,700 --> 00:22:42,390
and, uh, acts of intimidation
of this sort.
439
00:22:43,460 --> 00:22:45,320
Which, yeah, that's going
to intimidate people.
440
00:22:45,360 --> 00:22:48,400
So, the whole point of,
of this type of activity
441
00:22:48,430 --> 00:22:52,230
obviously, would be
to frighten you, the witness,
442
00:22:52,810 --> 00:22:53,900
enough to realize,
443
00:22:54,030 --> 00:22:55,340
You'd better not
talk about this
444
00:22:55,470 --> 00:22:57,300
because you're dealing
with people
445
00:22:57,340 --> 00:22:59,300
who will do damage to you.
446
00:22:59,340 --> 00:23:02,480
And if they can
wiretap your phone,
447
00:23:02,510 --> 00:23:05,410
or if they can threaten you
at any time of the day,
448
00:23:05,450 --> 00:23:08,040
um, who knows what
they're capable of doing?
449
00:23:21,740 --> 00:23:27,570
Now, there have been some visits
by these types of individuals
450
00:23:27,610 --> 00:23:31,370
in which the witness doesn't
believe that they're fully human.
451
00:23:31,410 --> 00:23:36,440
There's an odd component
to some of these encounters,
452
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,900
and in fact, when you really go
through some of those descriptions,
453
00:23:40,930 --> 00:23:43,800
it's easy to see why people
would conclude that.
454
00:23:43,830 --> 00:23:46,940
Uh, some of those individuals
are described
455
00:23:46,970 --> 00:23:49,660
physically as having
very pasty skin
456
00:23:49,700 --> 00:23:52,080
or very unusual
physical features
457
00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:55,220
like, very thin,
clothes don't fit them properly.
458
00:23:55,260 --> 00:23:57,530
Uh, odd behavioral
characteristics.
459
00:23:58,160 --> 00:23:59,470
In some cases,
460
00:23:59,500 --> 00:24:03,160
the witness will say that
they almost seem to lose power,
461
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,160
uh, or energy in the middle
of the interview
462
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:06,510
and then they just leave
463
00:24:06,540 --> 00:24:09,680
as if they're like robots
running out of battery power,
464
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,000
you know, something like that.
465
00:24:11,030 --> 00:24:14,760
So you get these two
disparate types
466
00:24:14,790 --> 00:24:17,140
of Men In Black stories,
467
00:24:17,170 --> 00:24:19,250
and that's always
been the tension
468
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,660
that you get with
the Men In Black phenomenon.
469
00:24:22,490 --> 00:24:25,110
Are we dealing with, you know,
470
00:24:25,150 --> 00:24:26,870
people working through the CIA
471
00:24:26,910 --> 00:24:29,660
or Air Force Office of Special
Investigation or something like that?
472
00:24:30,390 --> 00:24:32,780
Uh, or are you dealing with,
473
00:24:32,810 --> 00:24:34,230
I mean, really,
the implication is,
474
00:24:34,260 --> 00:24:37,330
are you dealing with non-humans
posing as human beings
475
00:24:37,370 --> 00:24:38,850
for their own purposes?
476
00:24:38,890 --> 00:24:40,370
And that's always
been the tension.
477
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,440
As witnesses
continue to come forward
478
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:43,990
with their experiences,
479
00:24:44,030 --> 00:24:45,820
it is believed that
the Men In Black
480
00:24:45,860 --> 00:24:49,930
shifted their approach to publicly
debunking those claims through proxy.
481
00:24:49,970 --> 00:24:51,830
Credible reports of abductions
482
00:24:51,860 --> 00:24:54,040
circulated throughout
the UFO community
483
00:24:54,070 --> 00:24:57,530
and was met with heavy
skepticism by debunkers.
484
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,630
He got his start as a debunker
in the mid-1960s
485
00:25:00,670 --> 00:25:03,390
with the idea of ball lightning
to explain away
486
00:25:03,430 --> 00:25:06,220
one particular interesting
UFO event.
487
00:25:06,260 --> 00:25:08,710
Uh, through the '60s
made it his personal vendetta
488
00:25:08,740 --> 00:25:10,470
to destroy the career
of James McDonald,
489
00:25:10,500 --> 00:25:11,540
the atmospheric physicist,
490
00:25:11,570 --> 00:25:14,470
who was a very, very strong
UFO proponent.
491
00:25:14,510 --> 00:25:17,720
And then, by the 1970s Klass
really was hitting the big time
492
00:25:17,750 --> 00:25:19,340
in terms of media attention
493
00:25:19,370 --> 00:25:22,620
and in terms of his prominence
as a UFO skeptic.
494
00:25:22,650 --> 00:25:23,930
Certainly, by the 1970s,
495
00:25:23,970 --> 00:25:26,760
Philip Klass had become
the number one
496
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,490
active UFO skeptic by far.
497
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,420
Credible reports of abductions
498
00:25:31,460 --> 00:25:33,490
circulated throughout
the UFO community
499
00:25:33,530 --> 00:25:36,810
and was met with heavy
skepticism by debunkers.
500
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,330
Are you a debunker
of all UFO stories?
501
00:25:39,360 --> 00:25:43,360
-Is that your purpose?
-Well, I look for explanations.
502
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,990
Now, you know, you can look at
503
00:25:46,020 --> 00:25:48,130
probably the most
prominent skeptic
504
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,200
of UFOs during the 19...
505
00:25:50,230 --> 00:25:52,030
Starting from the mid-'60s,
506
00:25:52,060 --> 00:25:54,650
right through the rest
of the 20th century,
507
00:25:54,690 --> 00:25:56,760
was a man named
Philip J. Klass.
508
00:25:56,790 --> 00:25:58,930
Yeah. Now Klass
509
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,380
wasn't a true Man In Black,
510
00:26:02,420 --> 00:26:05,210
uh, the way that previous
Men In Black were described,
511
00:26:05,250 --> 00:26:07,560
you know, coming in your house
and threatening you.
512
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,490
Klass worked in a different way.
513
00:26:09,530 --> 00:26:13,600
Uh, he engaged in countless
smear campaigns through the media
514
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:17,570
to discredit individuals associated
with UFOs, most famously
515
00:26:17,610 --> 00:26:20,230
the atmospheric physicist
James McDonald,
516
00:26:20,260 --> 00:26:22,960
who is really a hero
in the UFO field,
517
00:26:22,990 --> 00:26:24,510
and rightly so.
518
00:26:24,540 --> 00:26:27,890
Klass went after McDonald's
like a... Like a war.
519
00:26:27,930 --> 00:26:29,690
A personal vendetta.
520
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,030
Klass was someone who was
so well positioned
521
00:26:33,070 --> 00:26:34,760
through his contacts
in Washington, D.C.
522
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:35,930
where he lived and worked.
523
00:26:35,970 --> 00:26:39,460
He was a senior editor
for a very prominent
524
00:26:39,590 --> 00:26:41,630
aerospace aviation magazine,
525
00:26:41,660 --> 00:26:43,870
and he was very well connected.
526
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,020
Uh, Klass always seemed to have
527
00:26:48,050 --> 00:26:51,020
information on people.
528
00:26:51,050 --> 00:26:54,400
He had this way, and this went
throughout his entire career.
529
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,960
But there is no more exciting
story that I could write
530
00:26:56,990 --> 00:26:58,650
or Aviation Week could publish
531
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,060
than to say, At last
532
00:27:00,100 --> 00:27:03,820
we've come across
one UFO report
533
00:27:03,860 --> 00:27:06,380
that cannot be explained
in prosaic terms.
534
00:27:06,410 --> 00:27:08,760
Maybe this is
an alien spaceship.
535
00:27:08,790 --> 00:27:10,830
Biggest story of all time.
536
00:27:10,870 --> 00:27:13,660
Yet in more than
22 years as a hobby
537
00:27:13,700 --> 00:27:18,320
of investigating famous
mysterious UFO cases, reports,
538
00:27:18,360 --> 00:27:22,290
I have never found one
that cannot be explained
539
00:27:22,330 --> 00:27:23,880
in prosaic earthly terms.
540
00:27:23,910 --> 00:27:26,160
He once tried to bribe
541
00:27:26,190 --> 00:27:29,230
one of Travis Walton's,
uh, coworkers.
542
00:27:29,260 --> 00:27:34,230
You know, Travis Walton had the
very famous UFO encounter in 1975
543
00:27:34,270 --> 00:27:36,720
where he was missing
for five days.
544
00:27:36,750 --> 00:27:39,550
Klass actually tried to bribe
545
00:27:39,580 --> 00:27:42,860
uh, one of Walton's cohorts
546
00:27:42,900 --> 00:27:44,380
to deny the whole thing
ever happened.
547
00:27:44,420 --> 00:27:45,690
He offered him $10,000.
548
00:27:46,630 --> 00:27:48,870
This is how Klass
worked constantly.
549
00:27:48,900 --> 00:27:50,350
You know,
it's like Philip Klass
550
00:27:50,390 --> 00:27:52,220
offered me $10,000.
551
00:27:52,250 --> 00:27:55,320
That was a lot of money
back in the '70s.
552
00:27:55,360 --> 00:27:58,500
And there's always been
very, very strong suspicion.
553
00:27:58,530 --> 00:28:00,360
No proof that I'm aware of,
554
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,120
but very strong
circumstantial evidence
555
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:03,540
that Klass
was some kind of asset
556
00:28:03,570 --> 00:28:05,580
to the US intelligence community
557
00:28:05,610 --> 00:28:08,130
doing work for them to
discredit him on the subject.
558
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,990
He definitely was promoted
by Edward Condon
559
00:28:11,030 --> 00:28:15,480
of the famous Condon Committee
from the late 1960s
560
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:21,110
that, um, infamously try
to debunk UFOs scientifically.
561
00:28:21,140 --> 00:28:24,770
Our latest book,
Stanton Friedman and I
562
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,180
have written Fact, Fiction,
and Flying Saucers.
563
00:28:28,220 --> 00:28:31,430
It's based upon years
of archival research.
564
00:28:31,460 --> 00:28:33,050
He went to Harvard,
565
00:28:33,090 --> 00:28:35,990
read Donald Menzel's
archival files.
566
00:28:36,020 --> 00:28:38,820
I went to the
American Philosophical Society.
567
00:28:38,850 --> 00:28:41,020
I made several trips there,
568
00:28:41,060 --> 00:28:44,720
and what I found
in the correspondence files
569
00:28:44,750 --> 00:28:48,480
was a plan to debunk
those individuals
570
00:28:48,510 --> 00:28:51,660
who had very compelling cases
571
00:28:51,690 --> 00:28:58,110
and also to attempt to reduce
the credibility of scientists
572
00:28:58,150 --> 00:29:02,220
who had an interest
in investigating UFOs
573
00:29:02,250 --> 00:29:04,910
and who were speaking publicly
about that.
574
00:29:04,950 --> 00:29:09,880
I have a letter that Dr. Edward
Condon wrote to McGraw Hill.
575
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,610
And in that letter,
Edward Condon stated,
576
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,090
If you need anyone
in the media
577
00:29:16,130 --> 00:29:19,300
to make public statements
about UFOs,
578
00:29:19,340 --> 00:29:23,380
I would advise you
to use Philip Klass.
579
00:29:23,410 --> 00:29:29,450
Condon certainly worked hard
to try to promote Philip Klass
580
00:29:29,490 --> 00:29:33,390
as much as possible, as
someone who would be relied upon
581
00:29:33,420 --> 00:29:36,010
to give the proper perspective
on UFOs.
582
00:29:36,050 --> 00:29:38,880
That is the skeptical,
debunking attitude on UFOs,
583
00:29:38,910 --> 00:29:40,080
uh, through the media.
584
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,290
Klass is someone who was
able to get New York Times,
585
00:29:42,330 --> 00:29:44,810
op-ed pieces and articles
like no problem.
586
00:29:44,850 --> 00:29:47,570
He was on CNN all the time,
Larry King.
587
00:29:47,610 --> 00:29:51,790
He was always able
to get access to major media
588
00:29:51,820 --> 00:29:53,990
in a way that normal
UFO researchers
589
00:29:54,030 --> 00:29:56,410
would have just,
you know, given up an arm
590
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:57,590
to be able to have,
591
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,790
but Klass just had
this magical ability
592
00:29:59,830 --> 00:30:01,860
to connect with all major media.
593
00:30:01,900 --> 00:30:04,040
And you could certainly say
594
00:30:04,070 --> 00:30:09,080
that Klass is a new version
of the Man In Black,
595
00:30:09,110 --> 00:30:11,530
not in any way
like the mysterious,
596
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,010
intimidating figures
coming to your house.
597
00:30:14,050 --> 00:30:16,570
He would just smear you
and try to destroy your career.
598
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,680
What was was recovered
was a radar target.
599
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:21,700
-Balloon-borne.
-No, no, no, no.
600
00:30:21,750 --> 00:30:23,750
That is, that is the cover story
that was put out.
601
00:30:23,780 --> 00:30:26,510
We know it was a cover story
based on the testimony of the people
602
00:30:26,540 --> 00:30:27,790
who put out the cover story.
603
00:30:30,270 --> 00:30:31,550
Whatever happened at Westall,
604
00:30:31,580 --> 00:30:34,340
whatever the objects were,
they were being tracked.
605
00:30:34,380 --> 00:30:36,590
They'd being tracked from
where they were coming from.
606
00:30:36,620 --> 00:30:38,970
They'd been tracked over
previous days,
607
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,250
and there was some sense
of there being, um,
608
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,700
a surveillance going on
of these objects.
609
00:30:45,740 --> 00:30:50,220
And that's why the response
could be as fast as it was
610
00:30:50,260 --> 00:30:53,330
to the... To Westall.
611
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:57,510
That's why the military could get
there as quickly as they did that day,
612
00:30:57,540 --> 00:31:01,100
because there were some,
if you like, forewarning
613
00:31:01,130 --> 00:31:03,930
that perhaps these objects had
been seen elsewhere in Australia
614
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:05,930
in the preceding days.
615
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:10,450
Certainly we have the famous
photograph of a UFO
616
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,520
taken in a suburb of Balwyn
617
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,420
about 20 kilometers
from Westall
618
00:31:16,460 --> 00:31:19,980
just four days before
the Westall incident.
619
00:31:20,010 --> 00:31:24,950
And that photograph was leaked
to a Melbourne newspaper,
620
00:31:24,980 --> 00:31:26,950
The Herald, and published
621
00:31:26,980 --> 00:31:29,640
and caused a huge furor
at the time,
622
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,540
so much so that the person
who took the photograph itself,
623
00:31:33,580 --> 00:31:35,880
even though he didn't want it
published in the newspaper,
624
00:31:35,910 --> 00:31:37,500
he gave it to a friend
who leaked it.
625
00:31:38,100 --> 00:31:40,240
He never wanted it
made public,
626
00:31:40,270 --> 00:31:41,620
but it was
627
00:31:41,650 --> 00:31:44,070
and it then resulted in
628
00:31:44,100 --> 00:31:47,380
the Air Force visiting him
at his home.
629
00:31:47,420 --> 00:31:49,940
An interview was held with him.
630
00:31:49,970 --> 00:31:53,290
And he claims to this day
that he thinks the Air Force
631
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:57,770
was so concerned about that
photograph going into the newspaper
632
00:31:57,810 --> 00:32:00,670
was because it showed the object
633
00:32:00,710 --> 00:32:03,680
that was seen at Westall
four days later,
634
00:32:03,710 --> 00:32:07,060
or there was some connection
with whatever that object was
635
00:32:07,090 --> 00:32:09,650
that he caught in his
polaroid photograph
636
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,790
and with what happened
at Westall.
637
00:32:13,310 --> 00:32:14,960
So that's an ongoing mystery.
638
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,520
How could it be that an object,
639
00:32:17,550 --> 00:32:19,210
an object of unknown origin,
640
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,110
an object that flew in ways
641
00:32:21,140 --> 00:32:25,040
that were completely inexplicable
to anybody who witnessed it,
642
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,600
how there could be
such a rapid response
643
00:32:27,630 --> 00:32:31,250
by the military, whether it
was the Army or the Air Force.
644
00:32:31,290 --> 00:32:34,500
There's another very
interesting case in Australia
645
00:32:34,530 --> 00:32:35,910
outside of the city
of Melbourne,
646
00:32:35,950 --> 00:32:38,260
in the south part of Australian
in a town called Westall.
647
00:32:38,990 --> 00:32:40,710
And this is 1966.
648
00:32:40,750 --> 00:32:43,160
This is a really incredible
UFO incident.
649
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:48,030
I had the privilege of visiting
Westall myself some years ago
650
00:32:48,060 --> 00:32:51,550
and going to the school yard
where all of this happened
651
00:32:51,590 --> 00:32:56,140
and the story was,
you have, uh,
652
00:32:56,180 --> 00:32:58,450
all the kids run out
of the school
653
00:32:58,490 --> 00:33:05,290
because someone saw this UFO
coming over the property there.
654
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,530
So you got 200 kids
of all ages and teachers.
655
00:33:08,570 --> 00:33:12,710
There were adults and youths
that were watching this.
656
00:33:12,740 --> 00:33:16,370
The object,
by all of the witness accounts,
657
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,850
either landed or almost landed
658
00:33:19,890 --> 00:33:22,890
on the property,
like, very, very low.
659
00:33:23,510 --> 00:33:26,650
In fact, one girl,
660
00:33:26,690 --> 00:33:31,420
she was like in junior high school
age, think she was like 12 or 13.
661
00:33:31,450 --> 00:33:34,870
She got the closest to it,
and according to the witnesses,
662
00:33:34,900 --> 00:33:36,770
like she was not
ever seen again.
663
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,120
She moved far away after this.
664
00:33:39,940 --> 00:33:41,390
That's an odd thing.
665
00:33:41,430 --> 00:33:44,360
But what we know for certain,
666
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,640
there was a science teacher
named Daniel
667
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:52,160
who stated that these, look
like Australian Air Force,
668
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,060
came to his house,
669
00:33:54,100 --> 00:33:56,060
and they're two of them,
670
00:33:56,100 --> 00:34:00,140
and they absolutely
threatened his career
671
00:34:00,170 --> 00:34:02,480
and possibly his freedom
672
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,620
if he was to continue
talking about this event.
673
00:34:05,660 --> 00:34:08,520
They made it clear
in no uncertain terms.
674
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,080
You're not going to talk
about this
675
00:34:10,110 --> 00:34:11,840
or you'll have some
serious repercussions.
676
00:34:11,870 --> 00:34:14,630
I remember,
the military arrived,
677
00:34:14,670 --> 00:34:16,530
the emergency services arrived.
678
00:34:16,570 --> 00:34:19,810
There was a response by police,
the fire brigade
679
00:34:19,850 --> 00:34:22,880
by the Civil Defence
Organization.
680
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,640
There was a response
by the Commonwealth Police.
681
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:30,410
There is a report from a witness
who was a news stringer at the time
682
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:34,310
that a cordon was thrown up
around the streets of Westall,
683
00:34:34,340 --> 00:34:39,210
by, uh, police officers
in uniforms
684
00:34:39,240 --> 00:34:41,250
that were a little
unknown to him
685
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,840
using vehicles that were
a little unknown to him,
686
00:34:43,870 --> 00:34:47,800
but they looked like police
officers and police vehicles.
687
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,810
And when he returned to
the TV station later that day,
688
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,430
he was informed that, yes, they
were Commonwealth police officers,
689
00:34:54,470 --> 00:34:56,570
not Victorian state
police officers,
690
00:34:56,610 --> 00:34:59,090
the Commonwealth
police officers.
691
00:34:59,130 --> 00:35:02,790
So it looked like there was some
involvement at that level as well.
692
00:35:19,730 --> 00:35:22,870
Japan Airlines Flight 1628
693
00:35:22,910 --> 00:35:26,120
en route to Tokyo from Paris
when the crew noticed
694
00:35:26,150 --> 00:35:29,880
two UFOs with flowing lights,
which flew next to the plane
695
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,680
in patterns and speeds
which were unachievable
696
00:35:32,710 --> 00:35:34,820
with modern aviation.
697
00:35:34,850 --> 00:35:39,300
Controller had asked the military
man, Do you see anything?
698
00:35:39,340 --> 00:35:41,650
The military guy says,
Yes, I have a target
699
00:35:41,690 --> 00:35:44,170
at such and such.
One o'clock and eight miles
700
00:35:44,210 --> 00:35:47,490
from the Japanese pilot, 747.
701
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:51,010
The military man
said something like, uh,
702
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:56,250
Yeah, I see him 35 miles
north of, uh, Anchorage,
703
00:35:56,290 --> 00:36:01,460
and who's that at eleven or
one o'clock in his position?
704
00:36:01,500 --> 00:36:05,400
The FAA controller said, uh, I don't
have anybody. You have anybody?
705
00:36:05,430 --> 00:36:09,780
He said, It's not mine. And he came
back and said, We have no traffic here.
706
00:36:09,820 --> 00:36:12,410
And a couple of times
during the operation,
707
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,170
the Japanese pilot would say
708
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,450
He's now at eleven o'clock, he's now
at one o'clock, he's now at three o'clock,
709
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,530
and he's bouncing around
just right here, and...
710
00:36:19,570 --> 00:36:22,160
Well, he would say that the
military guy would cut in and say,
711
00:36:22,190 --> 00:36:25,420
He's now at two o'clock, three o'clock,
and he would confirm the position.
712
00:36:25,450 --> 00:36:29,870
The military controller has
what they call height finding radar
713
00:36:29,910 --> 00:36:32,530
and they have long-range radar
and short-range radar.
714
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:36,530
So, if they don't catch it on one of
their systems, they catch it on the other.
715
00:36:36,570 --> 00:36:39,190
And if you listen
to the military man
716
00:36:39,230 --> 00:36:44,510
at one time, he said, I have it on
the height radar or my range radar,
717
00:36:44,540 --> 00:36:45,720
whatever he called it,
718
00:36:45,750 --> 00:36:48,960
which indicated that he had
a target on his system.
719
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,170
Ours wouldn't record it.
720
00:36:52,210 --> 00:36:56,660
While they... They ran through
for the best part of 31 minutes,
721
00:36:56,690 --> 00:36:58,900
the UFO would be
in one position
722
00:36:58,940 --> 00:37:02,870
and the other following
Japanese 747.
723
00:37:02,910 --> 00:37:06,080
After a while, uh,
they changed his altitude.
724
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,320
It still stayed with him.
They gave him a 360.
725
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,670
When you're a 747
and you make a 360,
726
00:37:10,710 --> 00:37:12,570
it takes you a few minutes
to turn around.
727
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,330
You cover a lot of space.
728
00:37:14,370 --> 00:37:17,560
It still stayed with him. It was either
in the front, or the side or behind him.
729
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,680
...210, I approve 1628
to make deviations
730
00:37:19,820 --> 00:37:23,480
as necessary for traffic.
The traffic stayed with 1628
731
00:37:23,510 --> 00:37:27,340
through turns and descents
in the vicinity of Fairbanks.
732
00:37:27,380 --> 00:37:29,030
It's another very interesting...
733
00:37:29,070 --> 00:37:32,180
We can call this a Men In Black
incident in a way.
734
00:37:32,210 --> 00:37:35,460
And by the way,
relating to that encounter,
735
00:37:35,490 --> 00:37:36,940
good old Philip J. Klass,
736
00:37:36,970 --> 00:37:41,390
was able to work his way with his
organization, which is called CSICOP,
737
00:37:41,430 --> 00:37:44,290
the Committee... Scientific
Committee to Investigate Claims
738
00:37:44,330 --> 00:37:45,640
of the Paranormal.
739
00:37:46,540 --> 00:37:48,330
They have a different name now.
740
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:51,440
And they were able to get a
piece in The New York Times.
741
00:37:51,470 --> 00:37:54,060
You know, during all of that, to
debunk the whole thing and say,
742
00:37:54,090 --> 00:37:55,720
Well, it's just
the planet Jupiter.
743
00:37:55,850 --> 00:37:58,820
You guys don't know what you're
seeing. You made a big mistake.
744
00:37:58,860 --> 00:38:02,340
But in 1986, we have
an interesting occurrence.
745
00:38:02,380 --> 00:38:04,590
On November 17th of that year,
there was a flight called
746
00:38:04,620 --> 00:38:07,800
JAL, Japan Airlines,
Flight 1628
747
00:38:07,830 --> 00:38:11,460
from Tokyo, and they were
going over the...
748
00:38:11,490 --> 00:38:14,630
Over like in the Arctic Circle
area, actually, flying down
749
00:38:14,670 --> 00:38:16,390
over the state of Alaska,
750
00:38:16,430 --> 00:38:20,090
when this entire 29-minute
recorded incident occurred
751
00:38:21,020 --> 00:38:26,230
in which this airliner
was accosted
752
00:38:26,260 --> 00:38:31,720
by an enormous,
absolutely enormous object.
753
00:38:31,750 --> 00:38:34,930
That, uh, there's drawings
of it by the pilot,
754
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:38,070
whose name was,
uh, Kenju Terauchi.
755
00:38:38,100 --> 00:38:42,660
And uh, it's almost like this
massive, like the planet Saturn
756
00:38:42,690 --> 00:38:45,940
it's like this big, big,
roundish object.
757
00:38:45,970 --> 00:38:49,080
They're watching and they're
scared out of their mind,
758
00:38:49,110 --> 00:38:51,570
and they've got it
on their airborne radar.
759
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:55,120
It's... Ground radar
also is tracking this thing.
760
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:59,060
And, uh, as I recall, at least
one other airliner in the area,
761
00:38:59,090 --> 00:39:01,060
saw this thing visually.
762
00:39:01,090 --> 00:39:04,060
There is lots
of data points here.
763
00:39:04,100 --> 00:39:08,270
What's interesting about this case
is that they're flying side by side,
764
00:39:08,310 --> 00:39:11,310
this gigantic object, and it
releases a smaller object.
765
00:39:11,340 --> 00:39:12,860
Or at least I think
it must release it
766
00:39:12,900 --> 00:39:16,450
because the smaller object
gets in front of their cockpit.
767
00:39:16,490 --> 00:39:18,970
And in fact, it's...
It's two of them...
768
00:39:19,970 --> 00:39:21,940
where this...
769
00:39:21,980 --> 00:39:25,500
The cockpit is bathed in this
green light for a while.
770
00:39:25,530 --> 00:39:28,330
But as they're flying,
these objects are pacing them.
771
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:29,910
Like they're in front
of the cockpit.
772
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,400
With maneuverability that's...
773
00:39:32,430 --> 00:39:35,850
Like, there's no way
to explain how these objects
774
00:39:35,890 --> 00:39:38,750
could do the things
that they're doing.
775
00:39:38,790 --> 00:39:41,750
Uh, they eventually depart.
You can imagine the fear.
776
00:39:41,790 --> 00:39:44,580
So, Terauchi
is getting permission
777
00:39:44,620 --> 00:39:47,210
to try to move
his aircraft differently
778
00:39:47,240 --> 00:39:49,310
just to get away
from this thing.
779
00:39:49,350 --> 00:39:53,320
And the entire experience
lasted for 29 minutes.
780
00:39:53,350 --> 00:39:55,150
In terms
of the actual observation.
781
00:39:55,630 --> 00:39:57,390
The next day,
782
00:39:57,420 --> 00:40:01,570
I get a call from someone
with the scientific study group
783
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,360
or the CIA, I'm not sure
who was it the first time.
784
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,190
And they want to know, uh...
785
00:40:06,230 --> 00:40:08,750
They had some questions
about the incident,
786
00:40:09,650 --> 00:40:11,920
and I had said, I don't know
what you're talking about.
787
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,200
You'd probably want to
call the Admiral.
788
00:40:14,230 --> 00:40:16,440
Few minutes later, the
Admiral calls down and says,
789
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,030
I set up a...
790
00:40:18,070 --> 00:40:20,890
A briefing tomorrow morning at
nine or ten o'clock, whatever it was.
791
00:40:20,930 --> 00:40:22,010
In the round room,
792
00:40:22,240 --> 00:40:25,520
bring all the stuff you have,
bring everybody up there
793
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,010
and give them
whatever they want.
794
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,350
So that's interesting enough.
In the aftermath of that,
795
00:40:30,390 --> 00:40:33,530
there was an FAA, Federal
Aviation Administration meeting,
796
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,530
where they are discussing this,
they've got all the radar data.
797
00:40:36,570 --> 00:40:38,530
In this meeting,
798
00:40:38,570 --> 00:40:40,740
this is now according to
one of the men who attended,
799
00:40:40,770 --> 00:40:43,130
his name is John Callahan.
He was an FAA,
800
00:40:43,260 --> 00:40:46,440
a senior official with the
Federal Aviation Administration.
801
00:40:47,510 --> 00:40:49,440
And so what happened,
according to Callahan's
802
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,130
very vivid, explicit testimony,
803
00:40:53,650 --> 00:40:56,310
was that at one point,
these two men
804
00:40:56,350 --> 00:40:58,620
in dark suits enter the room.
805
00:40:58,660 --> 00:41:00,660
No one knows
where they're from.
806
00:41:00,690 --> 00:41:02,900
Is it assumed that
they're from CIA?
807
00:41:02,940 --> 00:41:06,670
I don't think that's ever made
clear where these guys are from,
808
00:41:06,700 --> 00:41:09,670
but there they come in
and they confiscate
809
00:41:09,700 --> 00:41:12,290
all of the data.
810
00:41:13,050 --> 00:41:15,160
They are warning everyone,
811
00:41:15,190 --> 00:41:19,440
You are never, ever, ever going
to talk about this ever again.
812
00:41:19,470 --> 00:41:20,990
We're taking
all of your evidence.
813
00:41:21,030 --> 00:41:22,850
Callahan kept his copy.
814
00:41:22,890 --> 00:41:24,720
That was the thing.
He didn't give it up.
815
00:41:24,750 --> 00:41:26,820
He didn't let them know,
they didn't ask.
816
00:41:26,860 --> 00:41:29,720
I don't think they asked him
directly for it.
817
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:31,620
And he just kind of
slid below the radar,
818
00:41:31,660 --> 00:41:33,380
as it were in this meeting,
819
00:41:33,420 --> 00:41:36,800
and left with it with his
copy of the radar data.
820
00:41:37,660 --> 00:41:41,670
And it was, uh,
13 years later, I think,
821
00:41:41,700 --> 00:41:43,080
from... In the late '90s,
822
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,390
where he is interviewed
by Steven Greer
823
00:41:45,430 --> 00:41:47,710
of the disclosure project
at that time
824
00:41:47,740 --> 00:41:49,500
and told his story.
825
00:41:49,540 --> 00:41:51,640
Uh, and so,
what you've got here
826
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,370
is another incident of...
827
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,020
Very clear this is...
828
00:41:55,060 --> 00:41:57,060
This is not a paranormal
Men In Black experience
829
00:41:57,100 --> 00:41:59,620
by any means. This is...
These are government guys.
830
00:41:59,650 --> 00:42:03,070
These are spooks who are
confiscating the evidence.
831
00:42:03,100 --> 00:42:04,520
Now, who are they?
832
00:42:04,550 --> 00:42:07,520
Are they CIA? Are they NSA?
Are they something else?
833
00:42:07,550 --> 00:42:11,870
Are they from the Majestic 12,
or whatever, whatever,
834
00:42:11,900 --> 00:42:15,110
you know, comparable organization
it would be to Majestic 12.
835
00:42:15,150 --> 00:42:18,840
Maybe it's called Zodiac. That's a
very possible... That's a big possibility.
836
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:21,840
But they're from a group
837
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:25,780
that their job
was to take that UFO data.
838
00:42:25,810 --> 00:42:27,540
And Callahan is really
worth listening to.
839
00:42:27,570 --> 00:42:30,440
He's a very...
He's a very upfront,
840
00:42:30,470 --> 00:42:32,580
extremely candid,
very articulate,
841
00:42:32,610 --> 00:42:34,410
very smart man.
842
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,450
And he's got the credibility
843
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:39,790
and the background
to back up what he said.
844
00:42:39,830 --> 00:42:41,800
That's the thing that
makes him so compelling.
845
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,660
When they read the
reports that come through,
846
00:42:46,700 --> 00:42:48,630
the FAA has
to protect themselves.
847
00:42:48,660 --> 00:42:51,150
You can't say,
you saw a target,
848
00:42:51,180 --> 00:42:52,600
even though
this is what he said,
849
00:42:52,630 --> 00:42:55,460
so they made him
change his report
850
00:42:55,500 --> 00:42:56,780
to position symbols,
851
00:42:56,810 --> 00:43:00,120
which makes it sound like
it wasn't really a target.
852
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:03,060
Well, if that's not a target than a
lot of the other position symbols
853
00:43:03,090 --> 00:43:05,230
that we're separating
from our targets either.
854
00:43:05,270 --> 00:43:07,930
When I read that, I thought
that is something fishy here,
855
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,930
that somebody's worried about
something rather than trying to cover up.
856
00:43:12,140 --> 00:43:14,620
Who did the Men
In Black work for?
857
00:43:14,660 --> 00:43:20,560
CIA, the FBI, the NSA,
something else entirely?
858
00:43:20,590 --> 00:43:23,910
Even in the military,
the Men In Black are a mystery.
859
00:43:23,940 --> 00:43:26,560
Over the years,
encounters with Men In Black
860
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,260
have decreased
as their legend has grown
861
00:43:29,290 --> 00:43:31,220
even into pop culture.
862
00:43:31,260 --> 00:43:33,260
No longer are you interrogated
863
00:43:33,300 --> 00:43:35,330
and threatened
by a government spook
864
00:43:35,370 --> 00:43:40,060
or a nameless agent from an
unknown cabal of organizations.
865
00:43:40,100 --> 00:43:43,890
As proxies continue debunking
and smearing credible witnesses,
866
00:43:43,930 --> 00:43:46,310
the Men In Black
have evolved their technique
867
00:43:46,340 --> 00:43:49,660
to control the narrative
through misinformation.
868
00:43:49,690 --> 00:43:52,000
Literally, fake news.
869
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:56,040
Take Richard Doty, former
special agent of the Air Force,
870
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,220
who was tasked with
infiltrating the UFO community
871
00:43:59,250 --> 00:44:03,330
to instill doubt and
misinformation of UFO encounters.
872
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:07,160
Men In Black have always been
present in the UFO community
873
00:44:07,190 --> 00:44:10,060
since back in the '50s and '60s,
874
00:44:10,090 --> 00:44:12,370
and if the sighting
875
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:17,750
or a report of a sighting
or acquisition of photographs
876
00:44:17,790 --> 00:44:19,720
were important
to the government,
877
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:24,210
the UF... The MIB, Men
In Black would show up
878
00:44:24,240 --> 00:44:28,660
trying to obtain what
information these witnesses had
879
00:44:28,700 --> 00:44:32,250
regarding the sighting or
the acquisition of photographs.
880
00:44:32,290 --> 00:44:34,110
If they took some photographs,
881
00:44:34,150 --> 00:44:38,120
uh, the MIB would show up,
trying to get those photographs.
882
00:44:39,460 --> 00:44:43,950
Ever since the '50s,
people started to see, uh...
883
00:44:43,990 --> 00:44:45,950
Started seeing flying objects,
884
00:44:45,990 --> 00:44:47,990
reporting flying objects.
885
00:44:48,030 --> 00:44:52,480
Um, depending on the accuracy
and the credibility
886
00:44:52,510 --> 00:44:55,690
of the people
that observe these objects.
887
00:44:55,720 --> 00:44:59,450
Uh, and depending on
what the government knew about,
888
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,560
what those sightings were,
889
00:45:01,590 --> 00:45:05,390
uh, it would be dependent on
whether the government went out
890
00:45:05,420 --> 00:45:10,600
and got the information
or tried to quiet the people,
891
00:45:10,630 --> 00:45:12,390
the witnesses that saw it.
892
00:45:12,430 --> 00:45:15,120
Uh, so... But...
But it's happened.
893
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,990
It's real, it's a controversial
subject matter
894
00:45:19,020 --> 00:45:22,510
both within the public
and within the government.
895
00:45:22,540 --> 00:45:25,060
But, um, my knowledge is
I've worked...
896
00:45:25,100 --> 00:45:28,310
I've actually been involved
in the Men In Black,
897
00:45:28,340 --> 00:45:30,140
and we didn't call it
Men In Black,
898
00:45:30,170 --> 00:45:33,310
but there were people
within a certain agency
899
00:45:33,350 --> 00:45:34,730
within the government.
900
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:38,700
Um, the Air Force
Special Activities Center.
901
00:45:38,730 --> 00:45:41,800
Uh, they're the ones that
control these Men In Black.
902
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:47,050
It was a unit stationed
at Fort Belvoir, uh, Virginia,
903
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:52,430
that dealt with uh, obtaining
information from witnesses.
904
00:45:52,990 --> 00:45:55,540
Uh, but I've...
905
00:45:55,580 --> 00:45:57,850
The controversy, of course,
centers around
906
00:45:57,890 --> 00:45:59,890
how these Men In Black,
907
00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:02,720
number one, who they were?
Number two,
908
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,930
how they obtained
the information from witnesses?
909
00:46:05,970 --> 00:46:09,420
And number three, what they...
Where that information went
910
00:46:09,450 --> 00:46:12,770
after they... After the Men
In Black got the information?
911
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:16,490
Now, these... These Men
In Black, as you call them,
912
00:46:16,530 --> 00:46:19,670
uh, that are prominent
within the UFO community
913
00:46:19,700 --> 00:46:21,770
are... They have a mission.
914
00:46:21,810 --> 00:46:23,980
They're assigned
to an intelligence unit.
915
00:46:24,020 --> 00:46:27,230
Uh, they're given a mission to go
out and interview these witnesses
916
00:46:27,260 --> 00:46:30,370
that saw this,
or that already reported
917
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:35,030
a sighting or collection
of data, pictures, so forth.
918
00:46:35,620 --> 00:46:36,820
Evidence.
919
00:46:36,860 --> 00:46:39,070
And so they're out there
on a mission.
920
00:46:39,100 --> 00:46:42,450
Now, how they operate that
from that point on
921
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:44,800
uh, is really up to them.
922
00:46:44,830 --> 00:46:48,150
How are they gonna get that
information? If you're the...
923
00:46:48,180 --> 00:46:52,530
If you're the witness
and uh, we've tried
924
00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:57,050
officially, where
two Air Force officers
925
00:46:57,090 --> 00:46:58,570
come to you in uniform,
926
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:01,400
not the Men In Black,
but in uniform,
927
00:47:01,430 --> 00:47:02,850
come to you and say,
928
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,330
Hi, we're from the
United States Air Force.
929
00:47:05,370 --> 00:47:08,680
And I understand you have
pictures of something
930
00:47:08,720 --> 00:47:11,310
that you saw last week
931
00:47:11,340 --> 00:47:14,550
and we would like to see them
because we think that...
932
00:47:14,590 --> 00:47:16,550
those pictures
933
00:47:16,590 --> 00:47:19,350
could be of a
classified project.
934
00:47:19,380 --> 00:47:22,250
So we would...
We would like you
935
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:24,530
to show them to us.
936
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:27,080
Well, if you say, They're
my pictures, I took them.
937
00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:28,700
I don't have anything.
You're military.
938
00:47:28,730 --> 00:47:31,330
You have no jurisdiction
over me.
939
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:34,500
No, bye. And so,
the Air Force officers leave.
940
00:47:34,540 --> 00:47:37,130
The next day or two days
or three days later,
941
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:38,920
you're visited by two other men.
942
00:47:38,950 --> 00:47:40,780
I'm U.S.
Government credentials.
943
00:47:40,820 --> 00:47:41,960
And I...
944
00:47:41,990 --> 00:47:45,370
And you took pictures
of a classified aircraft
945
00:47:45,410 --> 00:47:47,310
yesterday or whenever,
946
00:47:47,340 --> 00:47:49,970
and we need
to look at those pictures.
947
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:51,690
And you only have one way
of doing this.
948
00:47:51,730 --> 00:47:53,280
You have to
turn them over to us
949
00:47:53,310 --> 00:47:55,520
or we're gonna go
to the court of law.
950
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:57,040
or some other threat.
951
00:47:58,180 --> 00:48:03,700
So, those are the type
of operations that I've seen.
952
00:48:03,740 --> 00:48:05,770
Uh, been involved with.
953
00:48:05,810 --> 00:48:10,160
Um, whether
they eventually turn it over.
954
00:48:10,190 --> 00:48:12,260
If they don't,
there's other means
955
00:48:12,300 --> 00:48:14,020
that they can... They can use.
956
00:48:14,060 --> 00:48:17,200
But there's other ways. A
surreptitious entry into your home.
957
00:48:17,230 --> 00:48:21,130
You come home one night from
the movies, or going out for dinner
958
00:48:21,170 --> 00:48:23,760
and you come home and you find,
959
00:48:23,790 --> 00:48:27,930
your house to be perfectly
the way that you left it,
960
00:48:27,970 --> 00:48:30,630
except that where
those pictures were stored,
961
00:48:30,660 --> 00:48:32,350
the pictures are gone.
962
00:48:32,390 --> 00:48:34,560
Or the opposite will happen.
963
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,190
You come home,
the window will be broken,
964
00:48:37,220 --> 00:48:39,150
We had a burglar.
965
00:48:39,190 --> 00:48:42,950
And they stole this,
they stole my television
966
00:48:42,980 --> 00:48:46,060
they stole this. Oh, and
also stole those pictures.
967
00:48:46,820 --> 00:48:50,030
Now it looks like a burglar.
968
00:48:50,060 --> 00:48:52,860
So you call the local police,
you tell local police.
969
00:48:52,890 --> 00:48:55,790
And the local police, is going to
say, Well, so you had pictures taken,
970
00:48:55,820 --> 00:48:57,810
you know, there's nothing
we can do about that.
971
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,780
Paul Bennewitz, was a
successful entrepreneur
972
00:49:16,810 --> 00:49:20,230
and scientist who lived
in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
973
00:49:20,260 --> 00:49:23,850
There, he unintentionally
stumbled into radio transmissions
974
00:49:23,890 --> 00:49:27,890
from a secret military base
just beyond the border of his city.
975
00:49:27,930 --> 00:49:31,620
Later, this base would become
known as Dulce Base.
976
00:49:31,650 --> 00:49:35,550
Bennewitz was then contacted
and influenced by Richard Doty.
977
00:49:35,590 --> 00:49:38,070
Little did he know
he would become a victim
978
00:49:38,110 --> 00:49:40,630
of a mass
misinformation campaign
979
00:49:40,660 --> 00:49:42,460
that would end in tragedy.
980
00:49:44,010 --> 00:49:48,330
Now, there is one person
who has called himself
981
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:51,780
a Man In Black,
who's very well known
982
00:49:51,810 --> 00:49:54,470
in the UFO community
and that is Richard Doty.
983
00:49:54,500 --> 00:49:59,230
And Richard Doty, was a
member of the Air Force Office
984
00:49:59,270 --> 00:50:02,860
of Special Investigation,
AFOSI.
985
00:50:02,890 --> 00:50:06,650
It's like the Air Force's,
their version of the CIA,
986
00:50:06,690 --> 00:50:08,380
you can say,
their intelligence agency.
987
00:50:08,410 --> 00:50:14,080
Part of his job was to protect
U.S. Air Force technology,
988
00:50:14,110 --> 00:50:16,110
secrets, and things like this.
989
00:50:16,150 --> 00:50:20,250
And one of the things that
the Air Force would do
990
00:50:20,290 --> 00:50:23,600
to protect those secrets is...
991
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:27,050
Like, there's one instance that
I know Doty has talked about
992
00:50:27,090 --> 00:50:30,020
in which
there is a crash of a...
993
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,720
A secret experimental aircraft,
994
00:50:33,750 --> 00:50:36,790
and witnesses actually
had photographed it.
995
00:50:36,820 --> 00:50:40,580
And you have a situation
of AFOSI going to meet
996
00:50:40,620 --> 00:50:42,930
with these witnesses
or this witness,
997
00:50:42,970 --> 00:50:44,760
and to say,
Look, this is a UFO,
998
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:46,590
or let... Let them believe
it was a UFO
999
00:50:46,620 --> 00:50:48,250
and confiscate the images.
1000
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:49,660
Rather than let them know,
1001
00:50:49,700 --> 00:50:52,200
Yeah, you actually photographed
something that we're building
1002
00:50:52,240 --> 00:50:54,200
that we don't want anyone
to know about.
1003
00:50:54,240 --> 00:50:55,670
Don't you think it's a UFO?
1004
00:50:55,700 --> 00:50:58,710
Did you ever see
a craft operated like that?
1005
00:50:58,740 --> 00:51:02,090
You just have to put
that idea in your minds,
1006
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:05,780
And I go back to the
Paul Bennewitz, uh, case...
1007
00:51:05,820 --> 00:51:08,090
which I was intimately
involved with.
1008
00:51:08,130 --> 00:51:10,410
Um, Paul was already a believer
1009
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:13,100
and what he was doing,
he was taking pictures
1010
00:51:13,130 --> 00:51:17,100
of the U.S. Air Force highly
classified drone projects.
1011
00:51:17,140 --> 00:51:19,490
The project
was highly classified.
1012
00:51:20,210 --> 00:51:21,630
I went to Paul,
1013
00:51:21,660 --> 00:51:25,110
and Paul was already a believer,
he was already a member of MUFON.
1014
00:51:25,150 --> 00:51:27,040
So it was very easy for him...
1015
00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:29,600
For me, I said,
What do you think it is, Paul?
1016
00:51:29,630 --> 00:51:32,190
He said, I think it is UFO.
I think it's alien craft.
1017
00:51:32,220 --> 00:51:34,050
I said, You know what?
1018
00:51:34,090 --> 00:51:35,400
Could very well be.
1019
00:51:35,430 --> 00:51:37,880
That's all I had to say.
1020
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:40,750
And Paul ran with it,
and believed it.
1021
00:51:41,540 --> 00:51:43,130
And the rest is... Is history.
1022
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:45,480
You know,
you can believe this or not,
1023
00:51:45,510 --> 00:51:48,620
at least some of those things
that witnesses photographed
1024
00:51:48,650 --> 00:51:51,830
were not ours,
and they were not Russian.
1025
00:51:51,860 --> 00:51:54,210
So there were instances,
according to him,
1026
00:51:54,240 --> 00:51:56,760
this is my understanding,
in which...
1027
00:51:58,180 --> 00:52:00,970
There are objects that
were not from here, but they...
1028
00:52:01,910 --> 00:52:03,530
wanted that information as well.
1029
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:05,700
Now, again,
is this true or not, who knows?
1030
00:52:05,740 --> 00:52:09,260
uh, we were able to... And
this isn't classified anymore.
1031
00:52:09,290 --> 00:52:12,300
One of the things that
Paul Bennewitz had also, uh,
1032
00:52:13,260 --> 00:52:17,510
kind of stumbled into
by recording signals
1033
00:52:17,540 --> 00:52:20,100
was our ability
to shoot a laser
1034
00:52:20,130 --> 00:52:26,170
uh, at a ground based
laser station up into space.
1035
00:52:26,210 --> 00:52:29,140
And as the Soviet satellite
came over,
1036
00:52:29,180 --> 00:52:32,040
that laser would hit the lens
1037
00:52:32,940 --> 00:52:34,530
and blind the satellite
1038
00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:37,770
while it's going over a certain
base preventing that
1039
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,150
satellite to take pictures
of the base.
1040
00:52:40,190 --> 00:52:42,460
Now, there was a satellite base,
1041
00:52:42,500 --> 00:52:45,160
Kirtland Air Force Base
and one at Groom Lake.
1042
00:52:45,190 --> 00:52:47,300
There was actually
two out at Groom Lake
1043
00:52:47,330 --> 00:52:50,610
and one at different locations.
1044
00:52:50,650 --> 00:52:52,340
And that's when every time
1045
00:52:52,370 --> 00:52:54,820
a Soviet satellite
would come over,
1046
00:52:54,860 --> 00:52:57,340
they'd shoot that laser up
and blind it.
1047
00:52:57,380 --> 00:53:00,480
So they wouldn't be able to take a
picture of what was on the ground.
1048
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:02,930
But here's what we know
about Mr. Bennewitz.
1049
00:53:02,970 --> 00:53:04,380
He was a very smart,
1050
00:53:04,420 --> 00:53:07,490
capable defense contractor,
lived in Albuquerque,
1051
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:09,220
right by
Kirtland Air Force Base
1052
00:53:09,250 --> 00:53:12,080
by the Manzano weapons
storage facility,
1053
00:53:12,110 --> 00:53:13,770
which was very important.
1054
00:53:13,810 --> 00:53:16,980
And his office was right across
from there,
1055
00:53:17,020 --> 00:53:20,680
and he witnessed things
that were, he believed,
1056
00:53:20,710 --> 00:53:22,920
were very strange.
We're talking, um...
1057
00:53:23,540 --> 00:53:25,200
1979, 1980.
1058
00:53:26,580 --> 00:53:29,300
And Bennewitz
was a real patriot.
1059
00:53:30,720 --> 00:53:33,140
And he contacted the Air Force.
1060
00:53:33,170 --> 00:53:37,140
He said, Look, I'm recording
things over there that are...
1061
00:53:37,170 --> 00:53:40,630
They... These are like UFOs.
And he openly told them,
1062
00:53:40,660 --> 00:53:42,490
I think we're talking
November 1980.
1063
00:53:43,870 --> 00:53:46,840
And this is when Doty
gets alerted to this
1064
00:53:46,870 --> 00:53:48,940
and he is sent along
with other individuals.
1065
00:53:48,970 --> 00:53:51,030
Doty's not the only one.
They go to visit Bennewitz
1066
00:53:51,070 --> 00:53:52,830
to find out, like,
What does this guy have?
1067
00:53:53,290 --> 00:53:56,440
And the reality,
apparently, is that
1068
00:53:56,470 --> 00:53:59,440
Doty and Bennewitz
became genuine friends.
1069
00:54:00,750 --> 00:54:04,580
Um, I mean, probably his job
was to befriend Bennewitz,
1070
00:54:04,620 --> 00:54:07,580
but I... I do think that they
actually ended up liking each other.
1071
00:54:07,620 --> 00:54:09,970
But Doty was working Bennewitz
1072
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:14,350
and his job, absolutely,
was to protect any secrets
1073
00:54:14,380 --> 00:54:17,490
that the folks over at Kirtland
needed him to protect.
1074
00:54:17,530 --> 00:54:19,010
That was his job.
1075
00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:23,630
So, you know, according to how
Doty has often told this story,
1076
00:54:24,740 --> 00:54:27,400
and I think this part
we can say is true.
1077
00:54:27,430 --> 00:54:32,750
Bennewitz was a very, very
strong UFO believer to start with.
1078
00:54:32,780 --> 00:54:35,410
And even before he was seeing
things over by Kirtland,
1079
00:54:36,850 --> 00:54:40,580
um, he was involved
in at least one,
1080
00:54:40,620 --> 00:54:42,930
let's call it an investigation
1081
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,930
of a cattle mutilation
incident and abduction,
1082
00:54:45,970 --> 00:54:48,730
uh, relating to a woman
named Myrna Hansen,
1083
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:51,520
who went through
hypnotic regression,
1084
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,800
uh, I believe in fact,
by Dr. Leo Sprinkle,
1085
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:56,250
who's a very well known
individual in this,
1086
00:54:56,290 --> 00:54:58,220
and Bennewitz was
there and they...
1087
00:54:58,260 --> 00:54:59,600
And Myrna Hansen was regressed
1088
00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:03,540
and she gave a very detailed,
very detailed account
1089
00:55:03,570 --> 00:55:07,260
of being taken to an
underground facility.
1090
00:55:07,300 --> 00:55:09,270
It's, like, very
heavy duty stuff.
1091
00:55:09,300 --> 00:55:14,750
So Bennewitz was deeply
involved in all of this.
1092
00:55:14,790 --> 00:55:16,520
Then he sees all of...
1093
00:55:16,550 --> 00:55:18,030
You know, he sees things,
1094
00:55:18,070 --> 00:55:22,000
and he's recording, uh,
emissions that he believes
1095
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:24,180
are like a form of
alien communication.
1096
00:55:25,590 --> 00:55:29,150
So with that, Doty and his team
go to talk to Bennewitz.
1097
00:55:29,180 --> 00:55:30,740
And, um,
1098
00:55:30,770 --> 00:55:36,740
did Doty explicitly give
Bennewitz false information?
1099
00:55:36,780 --> 00:55:39,090
Or did he show Bennewitz things
1100
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:41,370
and let Bennewitz
draw his own conclusions?
1101
00:55:42,330 --> 00:55:45,160
I think definitely
the latter happened,
1102
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:48,510
and maybe some of the
former happened also.
1103
00:55:48,550 --> 00:55:52,930
Um, for example,
there is one story where...
1104
00:55:52,970 --> 00:55:57,310
Where Doty took Bennewitz.
to, uh, Dulce, New Mexico.
1105
00:55:57,350 --> 00:56:02,350
Now, Dulce has a legitimate
history of bizarre
1106
00:56:02,390 --> 00:56:05,670
cattle mutilations
and UFO activity.
1107
00:56:05,700 --> 00:56:07,700
I've been there myself.
And, in fact, I spoke to
1108
00:56:07,740 --> 00:56:10,780
members of the Gomez family
in Dulce some years ago.
1109
00:56:10,810 --> 00:56:13,950
This is a family that lost,
I think, over 50 head of cattle
1110
00:56:13,990 --> 00:56:16,300
to mutilations during
that period of time.
1111
00:56:17,510 --> 00:56:21,510
Um, there's reason to think
that it might be beyond human,
1112
00:56:21,550 --> 00:56:23,680
and there's reason to think
that there are definitely
1113
00:56:23,710 --> 00:56:26,340
human intelligence operators
there as well.
1114
00:56:27,660 --> 00:56:30,380
There's a lot of strange things
that happened over at Dulce.
1115
00:56:30,420 --> 00:56:32,730
So, and over at
Dulce, you've got
1116
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,320
Mount Archuleta
and Archuleta Peak.
1117
00:56:35,350 --> 00:56:37,110
Uh, yeah, I think that's it.
1118
00:56:37,150 --> 00:56:40,320
So, there's these two
large structures there,
1119
00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:46,500
and there have long been rumors
of underground facilities there.
1120
00:56:46,540 --> 00:56:48,610
And, um...
1121
00:56:48,640 --> 00:56:50,400
And in fact, I think
that there probably were
1122
00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:52,060
underground facilities there.
1123
00:56:52,090 --> 00:56:55,410
I recall distinctly speaking to
Edmundo Gomez many years ago
1124
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:57,820
who was the son of...
1125
00:56:57,860 --> 00:57:00,170
Of, um, the senior Gomez
at the time,
1126
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:03,930
and Edmundo told me, he said,
Look, in the early '70s,
1127
00:57:03,970 --> 00:57:07,070
we could hear all kinds of
construction sounds coming out of there
1128
00:57:07,110 --> 00:57:09,110
and we all believed,
he said, that there was
1129
00:57:09,140 --> 00:57:11,530
some kind of construction
going on at Dulce.
1130
00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,250
That's his opinion.
1131
00:57:13,290 --> 00:57:16,910
In any case, Doty, uh,
at one point takes Bennewitz
1132
00:57:16,950 --> 00:57:19,090
either on a helicopter
or aircraft,
1133
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:20,290
I can't remember which,
1134
00:57:20,330 --> 00:57:24,710
and they fly around
Archuleta Peak, and...
1135
00:57:25,580 --> 00:57:28,300
And Bennewitz
draws the conclusion
1136
00:57:28,340 --> 00:57:30,860
that there is an underground
base there.
1137
00:57:30,890 --> 00:57:34,930
And, uh, according... I think this is
how, uh, Greg Bishop wrote about this
1138
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,210
in his study of this called
Project Beta,
1139
00:57:38,170 --> 00:57:40,490
uh, that there were, like...
1140
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:42,730
Like these fake artifacts
put up by the Air Force
1141
00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:43,790
to make Bennewitz think
1142
00:57:44,030 --> 00:57:45,880
that there was all of this
activity going on
1143
00:57:46,220 --> 00:57:48,770
and make him think there was
a big UFO thing happening there.
1144
00:57:48,810 --> 00:57:51,880
Uh, and also to lead him away
1145
00:57:51,910 --> 00:57:53,640
from his fixation on Kirtland
1146
00:57:54,330 --> 00:57:55,920
to get him to look at Dulce.
1147
00:57:55,950 --> 00:57:57,160
That was part of this,
1148
00:57:57,190 --> 00:57:59,300
at least according
to Bishop's research.
1149
00:58:25,050 --> 00:58:28,120
On December 26, 1980,
1150
00:58:28,150 --> 00:58:31,160
Great Britain's most
notorious UFO incident
1151
00:58:31,190 --> 00:58:33,850
occurred at a United States
Air Force base
1152
00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:35,850
in Rendlesham Forest.
1153
00:58:35,890 --> 00:58:38,960
Security personnel
Jim Penniston,
1154
00:58:38,990 --> 00:58:42,340
John Burroughs
and Edward Cabansag
1155
00:58:42,380 --> 00:58:45,310
were alerted by radio
that a UFO was seen
1156
00:58:45,340 --> 00:58:49,070
moving in the forest
on the perimeter of the base.
1157
00:58:49,110 --> 00:58:52,110
They made their way out
to the edge of the forest
1158
00:58:52,140 --> 00:58:53,840
and as they made their way in,
1159
00:58:53,870 --> 00:58:56,290
eventually they stood
right in front
1160
00:58:56,320 --> 00:59:00,530
of something they could only describe
as being from out of this world.
1161
00:59:00,570 --> 00:59:03,400
This small triangular
metallic craft
1162
00:59:03,430 --> 00:59:06,570
had strange symbols
etched into its surface.
1163
00:59:06,610 --> 00:59:10,990
It emanated a vibrant glow that
lit up the canopy of the forest,
1164
00:59:11,030 --> 00:59:13,230
and it was almost soundless.
1165
00:59:13,270 --> 00:59:16,510
It is said that the craft
took off in an instant
1166
00:59:16,550 --> 00:59:17,890
from the forest floor
1167
00:59:17,930 --> 00:59:21,520
as if it disappeared into
the night sky before them.
1168
00:59:21,550 --> 00:59:25,830
These three eye witnesses made
their way back to the base by car,
1169
00:59:25,870 --> 00:59:29,910
where many other observers
of the UFO were stationed.
1170
00:59:29,940 --> 00:59:32,740
As they arrived,
they were surprised to have
1171
00:59:32,770 --> 00:59:35,880
men in civilian clothing
waiting for them.
1172
00:59:35,910 --> 00:59:38,570
And to quote John Burroughs,
1173
00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:41,850
There were gentlemen there
with sunglasses,
1174
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,850
who took Jim and Ed
off somewhere.
1175
00:59:44,890 --> 00:59:48,550
We no longer saw them
after we traded in our weapons,
1176
00:59:48,580 --> 00:59:52,550
and I felt betrayed because
they wouldn't talk to me anymore.
1177
00:59:52,580 --> 00:59:55,620
What was said to them
to clam them up so tight?
1178
00:59:56,310 --> 00:59:58,210
I have no idea.
1179
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:01,180
This story follows
an age old pattern
1180
01:00:01,210 --> 01:00:03,770
of a prominent
Men In Black cover up.
1181
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:06,250
A UFO incident occurs.
1182
01:00:06,290 --> 01:00:09,430
Experiencers witness
something that shouldn't exist
1183
01:00:09,460 --> 01:00:12,290
in our conventionally
understood reality.
1184
01:00:12,330 --> 01:00:15,500
A meeting then follows
between these experiencers
1185
01:00:15,540 --> 01:00:18,330
and the Men In Black
which strikes fear in them
1186
01:00:18,370 --> 01:00:22,440
to never speak about
what they saw or experienced.
1187
01:00:38,420 --> 01:00:40,700
I served
in the United States Air Force
1188
01:00:40,740 --> 01:00:44,600
for six years from 1992 to 1998.
1189
01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:48,990
First three years were at
Elmendorf Air Force Base in Alaska,
1190
01:00:49,020 --> 01:00:53,200
and the other three years
were at Fort George G. Meade
1191
01:00:53,230 --> 01:00:55,680
in Maryland, the home of NSA.
1192
01:00:55,720 --> 01:01:00,550
Now, my role for NSA
was as a computer technician,
1193
01:01:00,580 --> 01:01:03,550
primarily systems
and network administration
1194
01:01:03,590 --> 01:01:06,450
for a specific
surveillance crew.
1195
01:01:06,490 --> 01:01:11,390
I cannot get into specifics of
what exactly we were surveilling,
1196
01:01:11,420 --> 01:01:14,700
uh, but essentially,
I offered computer support
1197
01:01:14,740 --> 01:01:18,010
for those that were
performing this function.
1198
01:01:18,050 --> 01:01:20,880
Of course,
I had a top secret clearance.
1199
01:01:20,910 --> 01:01:24,570
A, uh, TS/SCI clearance
specifically,
1200
01:01:24,610 --> 01:01:27,440
and that is
very compartmentalized.
1201
01:01:27,470 --> 01:01:31,030
Now, on occasion,
we did have a need
1202
01:01:31,060 --> 01:01:36,930
to, uh, exit, uh, the NSA campus
and go to an off-site location.
1203
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:41,210
And there are a plethora
of these types of locations
1204
01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:42,970
across the country.
1205
01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:48,390
And these locations were
basically hidden in plain sight.
1206
01:01:48,420 --> 01:01:52,500
You know, they would be at, uh,
you know, just small,
1207
01:01:52,530 --> 01:01:55,500
you know, maybe strip malls
that were out of the way.
1208
01:01:55,530 --> 01:01:57,810
So they just had
some local businesses,
1209
01:01:57,850 --> 01:02:00,500
uh, some different offices,
that sort of thing.
1210
01:02:00,540 --> 01:02:03,610
And when we would have to go
to these locations,
1211
01:02:03,650 --> 01:02:07,030
we could not arrive
in our military attire.
1212
01:02:07,060 --> 01:02:10,100
Uh, they did not want
it to be known
1213
01:02:10,140 --> 01:02:13,520
that this was actually
a, uh, government operation
1214
01:02:13,550 --> 01:02:15,040
and the military was involved.
1215
01:02:15,070 --> 01:02:17,660
So we were required,
as protocol,
1216
01:02:17,690 --> 01:02:21,280
to dress in black suits
and a tie
1217
01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:22,980
to go to these locations.
1218
01:02:54,900 --> 01:02:59,670
...being interrogated. I just
don't. And I don't know if...
1219
01:03:12,990 --> 01:03:15,610
I don't know.
I mean, I, I don't know.
1220
01:03:15,650 --> 01:03:18,510
Was that, uh...
Was that an MIB experience?
1221
01:03:18,550 --> 01:03:20,960
You know,
black helicopters, uh.
1222
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:24,040
You know, military, uh,
abductions that happen sometimes.
1223
01:03:24,070 --> 01:03:25,900
People are taken
and then they talk about
1224
01:03:25,940 --> 01:03:28,520
them being visited by,
you know, military personnel
1225
01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:30,350
and re, debriefed
about their abduction.
1226
01:03:30,390 --> 01:03:32,630
So, Dan Aykroyd, the actor,
the comedian,
1227
01:03:32,670 --> 01:03:35,770
has a very interesting story
about Men In Black as well,
1228
01:03:35,810 --> 01:03:40,290
and, um, it's funny I have my
own little oblique connection to this.
1229
01:03:40,330 --> 01:03:42,120
Very, very small.
1230
01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:45,230
But in 2002, Dan Aykroyd
had a TV show called Out There.
1231
01:03:46,230 --> 01:03:48,100
And, uh, it was a UFO show.
1232
01:03:48,130 --> 01:03:49,370
Dan Aykroyd, of course,
1233
01:03:49,410 --> 01:03:51,680
everyone knows Dan Aykroyd
is very interested in UFOs.
1234
01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:52,960
He's very knowledgeable.
1235
01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:56,790
He knows this field, he's
very sophisticated with it.
1236
01:03:56,830 --> 01:04:00,900
And he wanted to do a serious
treatment of the UFO subject.
1237
01:04:02,490 --> 01:04:06,010
And in fact, uh,
this is 2002, and I was, uh...
1238
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,840
I was one of the new guys
in the field at that time,
1239
01:04:08,870 --> 01:04:13,500
and I had, actually, myself gotten
a communication from his team,
1240
01:04:13,530 --> 01:04:16,610
and they were interested in
interviewing me for this show.
1241
01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:18,670
So I was excited.
I thought, Oh, this is awesome!
1242
01:04:18,710 --> 01:04:21,990
I'll get to... Maybe
I'll get to meet Dan Aykroyd.
1243
01:04:22,030 --> 01:04:24,750
Uh, and then I discovered, no,
the show fell through no more,
1244
01:04:24,790 --> 01:04:26,240
and I won't get my opportunity.
1245
01:04:26,270 --> 01:04:30,830
So what's interesting is that, uh,
the day that that show was canceled,
1246
01:04:30,860 --> 01:04:33,040
has a very interesting story.
1247
01:04:33,070 --> 01:04:35,900
So according to what Aykroyd
said, he's out taking a break,
1248
01:04:35,940 --> 01:04:37,560
having a smoke outside.
1249
01:04:38,590 --> 01:04:44,010
And there's a very unsettling
man, in black,
1250
01:04:44,050 --> 01:04:46,640
who's at some distance,
1251
01:04:46,670 --> 01:04:49,740
but I don't think that far,
who's staring at him.
1252
01:04:49,780 --> 01:04:51,570
It's unsettling to Aykroyd.
1253
01:04:51,610 --> 01:04:55,160
The man is dressed in black,
he's got a car, a black car.
1254
01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,890
He looks away
and then looks over.
1255
01:04:57,920 --> 01:04:59,860
And the man
and the car are gone.
1256
01:05:01,200 --> 01:05:02,550
Um, apparently in such a way
1257
01:05:02,580 --> 01:05:03,930
that it didn't make
sense to him,
1258
01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:06,760
that it just disappeared
in such a way.
1259
01:05:06,790 --> 01:05:09,000
Right after that,
1260
01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:10,630
right after that,
he's back inside.
1261
01:05:10,660 --> 01:05:13,080
He gets a phone call
from his producer,
1262
01:05:13,110 --> 01:05:16,110
who tells him, without
an explanation, by the way,
1263
01:05:16,150 --> 01:05:17,430
that the show's been canceled.
1264
01:05:17,460 --> 01:05:19,260
No more shooting. It's over.
1265
01:05:19,950 --> 01:05:20,980
End of story.
1266
01:05:21,260 --> 01:05:22,430
Big mystery.
1267
01:05:22,470 --> 01:05:23,630
So it was, Oh, hi, Britney.
1268
01:05:23,670 --> 01:05:25,290
Sure. Oh, of course,
I'd love to do...
1269
01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:26,420
Guy gives me a dirty look.
1270
01:05:26,460 --> 01:05:27,490
Oh, well, sure.
1271
01:05:27,530 --> 01:05:28,530
Car gone.
1272
01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:29,570
That's what happened.
1273
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:31,990
And, uh, then two hours later,
1274
01:05:32,030 --> 01:05:34,860
uh, we were told that
we were not to continue taping
1275
01:05:34,890 --> 01:05:36,990
and the show was canceled
and none of them would air.
1276
01:05:37,890 --> 01:05:40,480
I don't know.
I mean, I... I don't know.
1277
01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:43,380
Was that, uh...
Was that an MIB experience?
1278
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:48,040
So there's a very interesting,
let's say, creepy,
1279
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:53,360
uh, video that is available
of two apparent Men In Black.
1280
01:05:54,150 --> 01:05:56,090
Uh, and this has to do with, uh,
1281
01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:58,640
an event that took place
at Niagara Falls.
1282
01:05:59,540 --> 01:06:00,910
Now, I don't know
the date of this.
1283
01:06:00,950 --> 01:06:04,270
The video itself was
posted to YouTube in 2013,
1284
01:06:04,300 --> 01:06:06,960
and it's very interesting.
1285
01:06:20,250 --> 01:06:23,220
So, what you have
is a situation where a...
1286
01:06:23,250 --> 01:06:25,870
A hotel employee
at Niagara Falls,
1287
01:06:27,010 --> 01:06:30,080
uh, the night before had sh...
1288
01:06:30,120 --> 01:06:34,500
Apparently had shot
a very impressive video
1289
01:06:34,540 --> 01:06:37,400
of a vivid and,
I think, large UFO
1290
01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:39,090
over Niagara Falls.
1291
01:06:39,130 --> 01:06:41,610
The very next day
called in sick.
1292
01:06:41,650 --> 01:06:46,070
And on that day that
he'd called in sick, uh,
1293
01:06:46,100 --> 01:06:48,380
there are these
very two odd men,
1294
01:06:48,410 --> 01:06:50,000
very intimidating-looking men
1295
01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:53,730
and all of this is caught on
the hotel, uh, security camera.
1296
01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:57,010
And it's interesting because
you see all the hotel traffic,
1297
01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:59,420
people coming in and out,
out of the hotel.
1298
01:06:59,460 --> 01:07:02,880
And then you see these two
very, fairly large men
1299
01:07:02,910 --> 01:07:06,120
in these big black trench coats
with hats.
1300
01:07:06,160 --> 01:07:09,430
And the... At least one
of the people there is, like,
1301
01:07:09,470 --> 01:07:11,880
obviously intimidated by them
and walks away.
1302
01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:13,610
You can see that in the video.
1303
01:07:13,650 --> 01:07:15,890
So, they go in.
1304
01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:18,410
And furthermore, when you see,
at least to my view,
1305
01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:20,960
one of them walked
in a very odd way.
1306
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:24,170
Like his feet
were not positioned
1307
01:07:24,210 --> 01:07:25,930
in the way that
you would normally see.
1308
01:07:25,970 --> 01:07:28,280
If you look carefully, like,
there, he's...
1309
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:30,080
His feet are positioned
in an odd way.
1310
01:07:30,110 --> 01:07:31,530
In any case, um,
1311
01:07:32,560 --> 01:07:35,080
what's interesting
about the video is
1312
01:07:35,120 --> 01:07:36,450
you have one person, primarily,
1313
01:07:36,490 --> 01:07:38,290
but there's two people
in this video talking,
1314
01:07:38,430 --> 01:07:40,910
but these are
the hotel employees,
1315
01:07:40,950 --> 01:07:43,640
and they're describing
what happened in this encounter.
1316
01:07:44,570 --> 01:07:47,270
And, essentially, they come in
1317
01:07:47,300 --> 01:07:51,030
and they're looking for this
employee, who's not there.
1318
01:07:51,060 --> 01:07:55,030
And they scare the hell out of this
one woman who's working there.
1319
01:07:55,070 --> 01:07:58,410
She gets to deal with
these two giant men
1320
01:07:58,450 --> 01:08:00,660
in these big black trench coats
1321
01:08:00,690 --> 01:08:03,140
with these enormous blue eyes
1322
01:08:03,180 --> 01:08:05,350
that never blink,
according to her.
1323
01:08:05,390 --> 01:08:08,980
And they're scaring her
to death, asking for this guy.
1324
01:08:09,010 --> 01:08:12,290
And she actually just broke down
crying during the encounter,
1325
01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:15,400
apparently, uh, according
to the person telling the story,
1326
01:08:15,430 --> 01:08:17,540
who was another employee,
a coworker of hers.
1327
01:08:17,570 --> 01:08:21,580
Uh, they wanted this film.
1328
01:08:21,610 --> 01:08:23,890
They wanted this video,
and they...
1329
01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:26,610
You know, what's...
What's very interesting is
1330
01:08:26,650 --> 01:08:30,860
that you've got this recording
on a hotel security camera.
1331
01:08:30,890 --> 01:08:33,760
And the only, you know,
what, what are the...
1332
01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:35,930
What's going on here?
1333
01:08:35,970 --> 01:08:38,450
It's... It's either
a massive hoax
1334
01:08:38,490 --> 01:08:41,320
that the entire hotel staff
1335
01:08:41,350 --> 01:08:44,460
wanted to participate in
and create this thing.
1336
01:08:44,490 --> 01:08:47,390
All right, I suppose
that's a possibility.
1337
01:08:47,430 --> 01:08:49,190
Or it's true,
or it really happened
1338
01:08:49,220 --> 01:08:51,850
the way that it seems to happen.
1339
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:55,060
And I don't... I don't know
what to say about it.
1340
01:08:55,090 --> 01:08:58,540
You know, I don't know, uh,
the names of any of the people.
1341
01:08:58,580 --> 01:09:00,510
Have they been
interviewed subsequently?
1342
01:09:00,550 --> 01:09:03,410
Do we have names?
What happened to the employee?
1343
01:09:03,440 --> 01:09:06,620
What happened to the film
that he shot, the video?
1344
01:09:06,650 --> 01:09:09,420
Uh, there's a lot of unanswered
questions in this story,
1345
01:09:09,450 --> 01:09:11,690
like, we just have to
acknowledge that.
1346
01:09:11,730 --> 01:09:16,630
On the other hand, when you
look at this, you listen to it...
1347
01:09:16,660 --> 01:09:19,670
Look, I just have to say, it
sounds potentially believable,
1348
01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:22,150
and I have to leave it at that.
1349
01:09:22,190 --> 01:09:27,810
I don't... I don't know what my full
determination is on this, for all time,
1350
01:09:27,850 --> 01:09:30,850
but I certainly
will admit, it's...
1351
01:09:30,890 --> 01:09:32,370
It catches my imagination.
1352
01:09:32,400 --> 01:09:34,500
It really makes me wonder
if it actually did happen.
1353
01:10:11,580 --> 01:10:15,480
UFO encounters
have been mired in suppression,
1354
01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:21,040
skepticism, and covert tactics,
termed, The Truth Embargo.
1355
01:10:21,070 --> 01:10:24,350
This truth has now been
considered credible
1356
01:10:24,390 --> 01:10:28,290
and worth investigating
by the Department of Defense.
1357
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:31,430
A recent news release
indicates the military
1358
01:10:31,460 --> 01:10:34,920
is again funding research
to the UAP
1359
01:10:34,950 --> 01:10:38,820
otherwise known as
the UFO phenomenon.
1360
01:10:38,850 --> 01:10:43,990
If there is a long history of
information suppression quite evident,
1361
01:10:44,030 --> 01:10:48,690
then should we trust the newfound
interest in the UFO phenomenon
1362
01:10:48,720 --> 01:10:50,520
by the U.S. Government?
1363
01:10:50,550 --> 01:10:53,170
Should witnesses
and experiencers
1364
01:10:53,210 --> 01:10:56,350
be the ones in which
we look to for information
1365
01:10:56,390 --> 01:10:58,420
regarding this reality?
1366
01:10:58,460 --> 01:11:00,940
Perhaps the government
should be the safe place
1367
01:11:00,980 --> 01:11:04,700
to consider relevant
information on the topic.
1368
01:11:04,740 --> 01:11:07,980
If that is the case,
then the U.S. Government
1369
01:11:08,020 --> 01:11:10,470
will have to regain
the public trust
1370
01:11:10,500 --> 01:11:13,820
and undo decades of
The Truth Embargo
1371
01:11:13,850 --> 01:11:16,440
enacted by the Men In Black.
1372
01:11:16,470 --> 01:11:18,580
The government
would have to admit
1373
01:11:18,610 --> 01:11:22,310
to the said suppression
of information in the past,
1374
01:11:22,340 --> 01:11:26,830
provide reparations for those
targeted by the Men In Black,
1375
01:11:26,860 --> 01:11:29,630
release all
the credible documentation
1376
01:11:29,660 --> 01:11:33,150
that has been scrutinized by
the U.S. Department of Defense
1377
01:11:33,180 --> 01:11:35,420
over the past 70 years,
1378
01:11:35,460 --> 01:11:38,430
and, finally,
provide a clear explanation
1379
01:11:38,460 --> 01:11:40,010
for how this should affect
1380
01:11:40,050 --> 01:11:42,570
everyone's belief system
going forward.
1381
01:11:43,090 --> 01:11:44,610
We are not alone.
1382
01:11:45,370 --> 01:11:47,330
The real question is:
1383
01:11:47,370 --> 01:11:50,400
Will the powers that be
ever stop using
1384
01:11:50,440 --> 01:11:53,610
Men In Black tactics
