(electronic blast) (chiming music)

(person speaks indistinctly) (thunder rumbles)

- [Speaker] Hello? (person speaks indistinctly)

Libby? - So we go out in the backyard

and we're standing, we're looking around,

and then we look north

and here we see these lights coming directly toward us.

- [Narrator] If you're like me,

you pay attention to the news.

I enjoy being informed.

So if you're like me, you cannot help but notice

the prevalence and, indeed, the frequency

of stories about UFOs. (upbeat music)

(upbeat music continues)

- [Pilot] We don't know what the man's saying.

My gosh.

I'm going against the wind, but it's 120 miles to the west.

- [Speaker 1] Oh, he did? (upbeat music)

(pilot speaks indistinctly)

(upbeat music)

- [Speaker 2] We saw it coming out

of the Australia mountains these red lights

that appeared to be one aircraft.

And instead of driving away from it

I started to drive towards it.

That was my instinct to drive towards it.

But as we got closer,

we realized it was not just one aircraft,

it was multiple aircraft flying in a V formation.

- I say over the past year

there's been countless stories

of government acknowledging people taking responsibility

like important people.

2021, the Pentagon released a report on UAP,

the term that's preferred to UFO

by much of the extraterrestrial community,

which found more than 140 instances of UAP encounters

that could not be explained.

Report followed a leak of military footage,

which showed apparently inexplicable happenings in the sky

when Navy pilots testified they had frequently

had encountered the strange craft off the US coast.

So today, we are joined by Clive Christopher.

(electronic music)

- [Narrator] Two things I've mentioned in previous chapters

are UAPs like to pose as stars in the night sky

and I will always promise to show you fresh UAP content.

This clips shows exactly that.

This witness noticed something strange taking place

in the sky in Mesa, Arizona, during the evening hours

on May 3, 2020.

They are facing in the west and northwest direction

when they noticed a bright object in the night sky.

We will zoom in on this footage in just a bit,

but I want you to see exactly how it was shot.

- [Speaker 3] Like nine of 'em at a time.

There's been like nine.

How many have we counted?

Oh, look it's getting brighter.

The energy around it or something.

Dude, they're fucking coming in.

That's a portal, George.

See around that star, like how bright?

That's not a star. - Star, dude.

- [Speaker 3] Look how bright it's getting.

I'm catching this dude.

Look at that shit.

- [Speaker 4] You're gonna see like little ships

coming out that area. - Look at it!

Like, there's energy coming out.

- Right. - Look, look, George, look.

Look what my phone's catching, babe.

- [Speaker 5] They're not going to show up.

(mysterious music)

- [Speaker 3] Dude, that was fucking aliens as fuck.

And it's disappearing, it's closing.

- It's closing. - You can't see it, but mine-

- Mine doesn't show like his. - Look, and it's done.

It went away. It went away.

It went to the star that got bright.

Watch that star do something. - That's a star-

- [Speaker 3] I'll have to share.

Look at that weirdness.

- Look at his phone. - Look how-

- [Speaker 4] Ooh, it fucking went away.

- [Speaker 3] That whole foggy shit went away.

It's like a- - Moving cloud.

- [Speaker 3] Dude, I just caught

something extraterrestrial on my fucking phone,

but that's sick.

Look at it. Look at when I zoom in on it.

How it's all, like, absorbing that energy.

- Yeah. - Remember I told you.

That fucking star got bright as fuck.

- [Speaker 4] Dude, remember I told you I seen like a ...

Remember, Juan, that wasn't a satellite-

- Yeah, I seen that. - we seen earlier.

- [Speaker 3] And how many came out of there?

Dude, like- - Like fucking 12.

- [Speaker 3] Easily 12.

Like, little things.

You can't see it on my phone, but like-

- [Speaker 4] And disappeared at the same spot.

- [Speaker 3] Like, they went from right there

and then they went this way and then they hit

that little ...

Where's the other star?

You can't see all that star?

That star right there they would go from that thing

and they would come to this and get disappeared.

- [Speaker 4] At the same time, the same-

- [Speaker 3] And it was like every five seconds.

- [Narrator] It's important to let you know

that the person that filmed this does want

to remain anonymous.

Even though the topic is a little more popular

in present day, some people are still uncomfortable

getting in front of a camera and sharing their story.

- [Speaker 3] When I took that whole video,

I was in my little pool.

What I thought was a star is completely gone.

They were coming up from right there.

Coming out from that light that it absorbed into

to that star over there and they were disappearing.

Now that whole freaking light that was so bright is gone.

That was his mother ship, B.

Back at it again, it's 8:11, same spot.

Do you see how it got bright? - Watch it's gonna go again.

There's another one that's coming again.

- [Speaker 3] It's gonna get bright.

You can't see it on my camera,

but it's gonna get bright.

See it? Oh, there it goes. - There it goes.

- There it goes. - Watch it go another like-

- [Speaker 3] Where is it?

Where did it go? - It's gone right now.

Everything's going. - It's happening right now.

I'ma keep it out. - Keep it in.

- [Speaker 3] I'ma keep it like this so you could see

the little flashing.

- [Speaker 4] It's gonna come through again.

- [Speaker 3] Oh, my heart's beating so fast.

- [Speaker 4] It's going again. It's going again.

- [Speaker 3] Here it comes. Here it comes.

You can't see the little dot,

but it's gonna get bright right now.

There it goes. There it is.

There it is.

- Boom. - Same spot.

- There go another few. - It's gonna go just a few,

but the first video it was on this side,

but it's happening again.

My hand's shaking.

- Again, dude- - My hand's shaking.

- this last Sunday. - Last Sunday this happened.

Oh, there. - Another one's coming.

Another one's coming. - I see it.

Yup, I see it, I see it.

Look, watch it's gonna get bright again.

I'ma try to zoom it.

There it is, there it is,

there it is! - Boom.

- [Speaker 3] There it is.

Let me zoom. - Have to single that UFO.

- [Speaker 3] Let me zoom in a little bit.

Oh, my hands are shaking.

This is awesome.

- [Speaker 4] It's happening again. (laughs)

- [Speaker 3] Wow, we were just talking about this.

- We're the chosen ones. - We're the chosen ones, man.

- [Speaker 4] There's gonna be a couple few coming out.

- [Speaker 3] Yeah, wait, hopefully

that big light comes back.

- This is alien as fuck. - Yeah, definitely.

Let me zoom back out.

Do you see another one? - Oh, did they go away?

I think they know now. - Oh, I can't see it no more.

- [Speaker 4] Fuck, they know now.

- [Speaker 3] Oh, my hands are shaking now.

- [Speaker 4] It's not a meteor shower

'cause the meteor showers go down.

Motherfuckers go on the right. - No, we got two of 'em

this time.

I'm not gonna zoom in so close.

It's in the same spot.

Was it northwest? - That was three.

- 'Cause he saw three. - Yeah, so that's three.

- [Speaker 3] You got three of 'em.

We got three of 'em this time. - They'll be some more. Watch.

Post that shit right now.

It's all good. - I know, I know.

- They know now. - It's all good.

At first it was like we weren't even really like,

'cause I just got this little above ground pool thing,

you know what I mean, like that for my daughter.

And we had it right there in the driveway.

So we were just hanging out.

My brother came over, my mom had stayed the night with us.

We had went to Arizona the day before

so when we got home, like, "Just stay the night, Mario,

we'll take you home in the morning."

And so, she just let us stay in all day.

And I go, "You know, it's pretty warm out,

maybe a little later when the sun goes down,

you know, maybe when the water's still warm

we'll jump in there."

So that's basically what we did, man.

And then, my brother comes over and we both jump in there

and we were just hanging out.

I was, like, making some food and stuff, so I came in.

I was in and out.

And then, finally I said, "You know, I'm gonna jump in

with you guys."

And I jump in and they just mentioned to me like,

"In that area, like, oh, bro,

we just seen a satellite up there."

I go, "Oh, yeah, you could see those,

you know, if you focus real close,

you know, you could see those, you know, moving.

He goes, "Yeah, just like right there."

And then, we look and like that light,

it looked like just a normal star at first.

And it started getting a little brighter.

I'm like, "George, did you see that?

That's kind of getting a little brighter than a star."

And then, my girl's like, "Oh, it's fine.

Airplane with it's lights on."

And I've seen airplanes, like, you know, when they're coming

towards you with the lights on they kind

of look like they're staying there for a while.

So I started messing with my brother.

I go, "No, that's not an airplane, man."

You know, just messing with him 'cause he's really into

like aliens and stuff.

That's when I kind of just,

it started off as a joke.

And then, I realized.

I'm like, "That airplane's not coming any closer.

It's kind of just staying there."

And once that happened, he goes, "Look right above it."

Like right in the video where you see

the little volcano looking ...

It looked like a circle on top of it

where they were just like dropping in.

Like, little things coming.

He goes, "Look, there's another one, another satellite."

I'm like, "That's not a satellite."

And then like, right, 'cause they were too close together.

They just keep coming like one after another.

It was like, "Wait a minute, George, are you serious?"

He's like, "Yeah."

And then, the lights started getting even brighter.

So I was like, "I don't think that's, George,

that's something different.

You know what?

I'm gonna go grab my phone."

And once I grabbed my phone,

like by the time we started counting them all, they stopped.

They would, like, come out, like, go to the right

for a good like, I don't know how far, you know?

And like, from my vision, maybe like three inches.

And like, they would get bright

and then they would disappear.

Another one come out with like you could barely see it.

It was really thin and then it would get bright

and then disappear.

And like, like, I wanna say, like, 10 to 12 of 'em

came out of there and that's when I grabbed my phone

'cause I thought they was gonna,

you know, keep showing up, keep going, keep doing this.

So I was like, "Oh, I better grab my phone."

And that's when I started recording that, man.

From the naked eye, at first, you couldn't see that

what I caught on my camera.

And then, once I started, like, kind of focusing on it,

I seen what my camera was camera was catching.

I was looking, like, just with my eyes, you know?

And I could start seeing the same shape with my eyes.

And my brother's like, "I don't see what

you're talking about."

He didn't really see what I seen.

I'm like, "There's that little thing.

Look at my camera.

When he looked at it, he's all getting tripped out.

That's when (indistinct) the video.

He goes, "Oh, dang."

And then, we started seeing it 'cause now

we could picture where it was at,

you know, through my phone.

And it just started getting brighter and brighter

and, like, it was crazy, man.

I was freaking ...

I remember everything. You know what I mean?

There's no reason why.

I was like ...

Like, I was tripping.

I just wish I wasn't, you know, maybe cussing so much

in the video,

but I mean that was my reaction.

You know, at the time, I didn't really think about it.

I didn't think, you know what I mean, 5,000 people

were really gonna see it, you know?

- Go ahead. - 'Cause there was,

like, stars above it, like a little bit above it.

And then, there was like, like, little like twinkling ones.

So I was like, "Maybe that is just a star."

But, like, what we were seeing coming out were like gray,

like a dull like gray.

And the only reason we could see 'em moving

is 'cause like you know when your eyes kind of adjust

to the dark 'cause I turned off all the lights

so we could see 'em coming out.

I turned my front light off.

Because originally, I had all the lights on in the front.

But once we started, like, filming with the light

on the corner, but I was like, "Well, we did see

the stuff moving."

I go, "Turn the lights off, turn the lights off."

'Cause my uncle lives on the res and that's how

I learned to do that.

Like, he's all, "Do you want to see a satellite?"

Let's go out in the back, turn the lights off,

sit in the back of the truck so your eyes could adjust

to the dark, you know?

So we went to go out in his backyard and sit on the truck

on the back of the bed and lay there and be in the dark.

And, like, you start seeing more stuff, more stars,

and you could eventually start,

"Look, there's one right there."

And you could see the satellites way up there.

You know, they don't have lights on 'em.

They probably do, but we can't see 'em.

But all you could see is just

a little bit moving very slowly, you know?

So that's what kind of made me turn off all the lights.

I'm like, "Turn the lights off so we could see it better."

'Cause, like, we were seeing like a bunch of 'em.

Usually, when you see a satellite they're not

in the same, you know, direction and it's only one.

And it goes and then they leave, you know?

This time we seen, like, one come drop down

and then go to the right.

Like, five more seconds later, another dropped down,

go to the right, dropped down, go to the right.

And I was like, "Those ain't,

that ain't satellites."

George is all, "That's what we seen earlier."

I'm like, "Those are not satellites.

Those are something.

Well, turn the lights on."

That's when we started, like, just looking with our eyes.

And then, that's when it snapped in my head.

I'm like, "I should record this."

So by the time I got here, like, they was already, like ...

On my phone you couldn't see.

Like, maybe two or three more came out

and that was it.

And my girl's right there.

She's like, "I don't see it."

I'm like, "Look."

And then, I showed her on my phone

and then she kinda looks at it.

And she's like, "Ah, well, my phone's not picking ..."

She was trying to do it with her phone.

She has a better phone, you know?

Obviously, she has like a Galaxy like

the newest one or whatever.

That's not picking it up.

I'm like, "Mine's picking it up like perfect."

And then, when she looked at mine

she started seeing it, oh, like, you know what I mean?

She seen it afterwards,

like, where was it at and everything.

She's like, "Oh my phone didn't pick that up."

I'm like, "Mine did."

And even after, like, I would look away from my phone

I could picture where it was at so I started seeing it.

They were trying to cloak it or something,

but, like, since I knew where it was at,

you know what I mean, to the average eye,

like, they didn't really look.

Oh, they wouldn't see it.

But since my phone saw it, I could start seeing it.

And my brother's like, "Yeah, yeah."

And I'm like, "It's getting brighter."

So, yeah, I started to, like, picture it out more.

I was like, "Oh, man, that was just ...

It's something."

I know it was something that wasn't normal,

so I was like, "I gotta record this."

Yeah, man, and then I was like,

after all that, but I was just kinda like bugging out.

I was like, "That was so random."

I was shocked, but I didn't realize.

You know what I mean?

I didn't even think about posting the video at first

and I was like, "Oh, that's cool."

I was gonna show my other brothers.

So I was inside already and we started eating.

And then, after we started eating I think my brother

and mom was just like, "Oh, we're gonna head out now."

And my brother came and picked up my mom.

And he goes out there.

He goes, "Dude, man, it's gone!"

I go, "Uh."

I grab my phone and that's when I took the second video.

I thought he was messing with me.

Well, I knew that wasn't a star, you know?

So when I got out there, sure enough,

it was just completely gone, bro.

And I'm getting a lot of people saying,

like, from Canada they seen a shooting star

around that area going south.

And I'm like, "Well, I wish I would've stayed out there

to see if it would've took off or whatever it did,

but I was already inside."

By the time I found out I was gone completely

it was already, you know what I mean,

it was already gone pretty much.

- [Narrator] Let's dissect this video

and try to put ourselves in the position

as if we were there with them that night.

The location best described by the witness

was either over Camelback Mountain or Piestewa Peak.

At the very beginning of this clip,

the gentlemen filming mentioned seeing nine of them.

What he is referring to is multiple crafts

that they saw with the naked eye.

It's hard to see, but the camera does capture

some of those objects.

They were traveling to other stars says the witness

as he was trying to give his best description

as to what he was observing. (mysterious music)

He even called it energy as it began to absorb the clouds.

He referred to it as a portal surrounding it

and the smaller craft were going in and out.

There were at least four other people

that witnessed this event.

And if you pay close attention,

the other people are filming.

Three out of the four people that were there that night

filmed this event with their phones,

when they're ready to come forward,

the video footage from the other phones

will be displayed to you.

This state is often considered popular for UFO sightings

due to a combination of factors

including its vast open landscapes, clear skies, deserts,

and remote areas that provide less light pollution

making it easier to spot unusual aerial phenomenon.

Arizona gets plenty of attention from our solar system

and it's worth mentioning that the state has a rich history

of UFO sightings.

For example, from 2001 to 2015,

an in-depth study on UFOs across the nation

was overseen by Cheryl and Linda Costa.

During this study, they collected raw data

on the number of reported sightings in each state

and quickly learned that the sightings were happening

in specific counties within the state.

Their final conclusion showed how each county

was reporting UFOs and the different types

that were encountered.

Maricopa County alone beat out 37 states

in reporting of unidentified objects

and came in second overall during this study.

There have been persistent rumors of an alleged crash UFO

buried in Arizona 1,000s of years ago,

but there's no concrete evidence to support these claims.

Word is the crash took place near present-day Sedona.

A mothership of some sort made impact

and went deep in the Earth.

The urban legend goes that the craft releases energy

that reaches the surface.

Locals claim that this is why certain clay

in the area is magnetic.

The rumors of a buried UFO in Arizona also stem

from the fact that the state is home

to several military bases,

testing grounds,

and hidden branches in the surrounding areas

that came into existence in the early 40s

before Area 51 became operational.

The placements of these Aux Fields throughout the state

have fueled theories and speculation

that the military has been searching

for this lost mothership before the UFO wave of 1947.

It is important to approach such claims with skepticism

and rely on credible evidence.

Without concrete proof or official confirmation,

the idea of a buried UFO in Arizona remains in the realm

of urban legends. (mysterious music)

One of the most famous alleged UFO crashes in Arizona

is known is the Selman Graves incident

when he and his brother-in-law came across

a crashed UFO on the open desert floor.

They were questioned by military officials for hours

before they were allowed to go home.

The exact location and circumstances of such crash

remains speculative and controversial,

even though the same story was later published

in a book in 1952.

It is worth noting that the vast majority

of UFO craft reports that have been in Arizona

can be attributed to hoaxes, misidentification,

or other explanations that have been shown

in Project Blue Book.

Additionally, Arizona has been the site

of notable UFO incidents in the past,

such a the famous Travis Walton UFO sighting

and abduction that took place in November of 1975.

Mr. Walton was abducted and taken aboard

an alien spaceship and returned days later unharmed.

Travis later told everyone it would happen.

He was ridiculed and called a liar

even after he passed multiple lie-detector tests.

Yet, there's no scientific evidence to support the claim

that aliens or extraterrestrial life took Mr. Walton.

But at what point do we begin to trust the word

of an honest man over scientific proof?

The existence of aliens is a topic that's up for debate.

And in my opinion, Travis Walton is the one person

that can prove their existence.

Many claims of alien sightings or encounters

are often based on personal beliefs, folklore,

or theories, rather than scientific evidence.

But with the amount of video from credible sources

in the present day, they deserve serious consideration.

Arizona's history of UFO sightings

has generated an ongoing interest in research

into the phenomenon.

The types of UFOs reported in Arizona vary

and witnesses have described different

shapes, sizes, and behaviors.

Here are some of the common types

of UFOs reported in this state.

There are numerous reports of strange lights

or orbs in the sky that do not fit the typical shape

of a traditional UFO.

These lights are often described as hovering, maneuvering

in unusual patterns or disappearing and reappearing,

displaying different colors.

Many UFO sightings in Arizona involve spherical

or orb-like objects.

These orbs are often described as blowing, pulsating,

or changing colors.

They have been observed both individually and in groups.

In recent years, there have been numerous reports

of blue light unidentified aerial phenomena in Arizona.

These sightings often describe objects emitting

a bright blue light or blue-colored orbs moving

through the sky in unusual patterns.

These sightings have gained attention

and sparked speculation amongst UFO enthusiasts

and researchers.

Some theories suggest that these blue light UAPs

could be advanced military aircraft

or experimental technology being tested in the area.

Others propose it could be extraterrestrial.

These sightings have gained attention

and sparked speculation amongst

UFO enthusiasts and researchers.

It is important to note that the true nature

of the origin of these blue light UAPs remains unknown.

Without official confirmation or additional evidence,

it is challenging to determine

the cause behind the sightings.

Investigations into the phenomena are ongoing

and researchers continue to explore possible explanations.

The blue light UAPs reported in recent years

add to the longstanding mystery and intrigue surrounding

unidentified area phenomena in the state.

Reports of Delta-shaped UFOs in Arizona

have been documented over the years.

In this state, there have been reports

of triangle-shaped UFO sightings that some speculate

to be the TR-3B.

These sightings often describe a craft with three lights

at each corner moving silently and smoothly through

the night sky.

The TR-3B is said to be a top secret military craft,

often associated with UFO sightings.

It is described as a triangular-shaped craft

with advanced capabilities,

including the ability to hover silently

and maneuver at high speeds.

While there are many claims

and conspiracy theories surrounding

the TR-3B, it's existence has not been officially confirmed

by any government or military agencies.

As with many UFO sightings,

it is challenging to verify the nature

of the observed object without official confirmation

or additional evidence.

The TR-3B remains a subject of speculation and debate

with some believing it to be

a highly-advanced military aircraft

and others suggesting it could be

of extraterrestrial origins.

Triangle-shaped UFOs have been reported

in other parts of the state as well.

It is important to note that UFO sightings

are relatively common worldwide and Arizona

has had its share of such reports.

While many sightings need further investigation,

we are going to take a look at the top five

and most controversial UFO cases that

are taking place in Arizona.

(mysterious music)

Incident 40 originally started in Project Grudge

and later Project Blue Book.

On August 29, 1947, an interview with

a man named William Rhodes was arranged

because he had taken some photos of a UFO

in the Phoenix area a month prior.

The photos were later published in the local newspaper

and Rhodes quickly gained attention.

Two agents showed up to the interview

who were initially introduced as representatives

of the government.

During multiple interviews between special agent,

George Fugate, Jr. From the CIC,

special agent Brower of the FBI,

and William Rhodes, the area of focus

was the day he photographed the UFO in the sky,

the actual pictures, the negatives,

and even the camera that was used to take the pictures.

The agents would eventually ask Rhodes

for the original photos of the UFO

and the negatives he developed himself.

He quickly agreed to hand over the photos

and he also stated that the negatives

were not at the property at this time,

but he would hand them over the following day.

Rhodes never received the camera,

the photos, or negatives back.

During Project Blue Book,

incident 40 was discredited by J. Allen Himey,

attacking Rhodes by falsifying the photos that were taken

and questioning Rhodes' character by making claims

that his wife may have been a Russian spy.

It's important to note the photos involved in incident 40

were shown to Kenneth Arnold in which he said the craft

was identical to the sighting he saw in Washington state.

The photos taken by Rhodes went through

a testing process because he developed

the negatives himself.

The independent testing showed the photos were authenticated

and proven to be unaltered. (soft music)

(soft music continues)

The Miranda Air Base sighting of April 1952.

Before we go into the sighting that took place

at the Miranda Air Base, it's important to look at

two other incidents from Project Blue Book

that happened in the same area three years prior.

(soft music continues)

A florist in the Tucson area is standing outside

with two friends when they all noticed

a silver elongated craft over the Catalina Mountains.

The reports of this event showed that it only lasted

an estimated 15 minutes. (soft music)

All three witnesses observed a sausage-shaped craft

directly above the Catalina Mountain range.

It had no windows, points of exit, wings,

or identifying marks. (soft music)

All three witnesses say that it appeared to be rolling over

while it stayed stationary above the mountains.

They also reported that it was about three to five miles

off the ground and slowly moving at a speed

at about 500 miles per hour.

(soft music)

This documented report comes from a US Air Force sergeant

who noticed two unidentified flying objects

while enjoying some downtime in the front yard of his home

located in northeast Tucson.

(soft music)

The sergeant stated that he observed two silver,

perfectly round craft that appeared over the southwest part

of the sky.

It was sometimes where he said the objects looked flat,

reflective, and they were the size of a standard bathtub.

They had an altitude of about 10,000 feet and traveled

at an estimated 800 to 1,000 miles per hour.

The Air Force sergeant observed the two craft

as they headed toward the northwest side of the city.

Then, they made a sudden right turn before disappearing

over the Catalina Mountains.

(soft music)

(soft music continues)

Air Force instructors and a civilian pilot reported seeing

a metal, bright object that remained stationary

over the Miranda Air Base.

The civilian pilot had recently landed at the base

and stated that while on taxi he noticed an object

that was bright as a star during the morning hours.

The pilots remained in observation mode

as the object just hovered over the base

for about 45 minutes.

They said that the object never moved an inch

while they were watching it.

The pilots then decided to take off

and get a better look at the object.

But as soon as they became airborne,

the craft quickly disappeared.

(soft music)

Incident quickly gained attention both locally

and from a the national media.

(soft music)

At that time, it was considered one of the earliest

and well-documented UFO sightings in Arizona

that was later investigated by the Air Force

in Project Blue Book. - To mention that,

you know, what you ...

The story you initially told about the Phoenix Lights,

I lived in Phoenix at the time and I didn't see them,

I wasn't outside, but it was indeed

a citywide occurrence.

Everyone was talking about it.

But this was years ago. I was in school still.

So everyone was talking about it

and some people saw it, some people didn't,

but it was too many people for it to be like a-

- Over 10,000 people saw it. - Way more.

- It has to be way more than that.

It has to be way- - It was a huge-

- Because there was a moment here.

- [Narrator] This incident has lost translation

over the years.

Reported as one event that lasted only a few hours.

The truth is sightings occurred up until 5:00 a.m.

the following morning.

The Phoenix Lights remains unexplained

and opinions differ on what exactly was observed

and took place that evening.

Some propose that it was a secret military aircraft

or experimental technology,

while others suggest it could have been extraterrestrial.

The official explanation from the US Military

was that the lights were flares dropped

by A-10 Warhawk aircraft during a training exercise.

However, many witnesses maintain that the object

that they saw was much more substantial than flares

and here's why.

On March 13, 1997, 1,000s of people on Phoenix, Arizona,

reported seeing a V-shaped formation of lights

moving silently across the city.

The lights appear to be connected to

a massive triangular-shaped object

and these lights flew across two states.

This is the main event that a majority

of witnesses observed, including myself.

This took place from about 7:50 to 8:45.

From what I understand, no video from this event exists

in the present day.

It's all been confiscated.

This is a part of the story they don't want us to remember.

When it comes to the Phoenix Lights, imagine a book.

The entire incident is recorded in this book

and it's 20 chapters.

And this complete book focuses on the entire event,

known as the Phoenix Lights.

What is shown on the news is about a chapter.

Some of the things that took place left people in fear.

One thing about this incident,

it is the most reported sighting in ufology.

And even if you lived in Phoenix

and you did not physically see the Phoenix Lights,

you learned in the days, weeks, even months after

that the Men in Black is a real thing.

They went around confiscating videos,

they tapped people's phone, the FBI was involved.

There was a lot of events that even took place after

that left the city in fear.

And this is why a lot of the witnesses decided to wait

and speak out because of the fact that it was known

that government agents, FBI, Men in Black,

all different types of agencies were boots on the ground

after the Phoenix Lights.

Now, one of the main reasons why people want me

to speak out about what I witnessed that night

on March 13, 1997, is because my story can be verified

based off the fact that it is connected

to two city entities.

I was 15 years old working at Sky Harbor Airport

and I would catch the city bus to and from work.

When I saw the Phoenix Lights,

I was traveling on the Redline Bus

right around 16th Street and Buckeye.

I initially saw two lights that looked like helicopters,

but I immediately knew there was something wrong

about that because the flight path is right there.

And one of the things that you indirectly learn working

at the airport is the flight path,

the way the planes land, pretty much the time

in between planes and, you know, the airport

it's all schedule based.

So these lights that I saw to of them as we were turning

on 16th Street it was odd because it was right

in the flight path of the arriving flights.

I remember thinking, you know, it's possibly

some sort of emergency or something like that.

And as we made that right that's when I noticed

there was more than two.

It was actually five.

And the color of these lights

they were whitish, bluish, grayish color.

They were in a V formation,

about 300 feet off of the ground, traveling south.

And they were just starting to cross over the airport.

That entire time I'm looking at these lights

just pretty much in awe.

We stopped, we got off of the bus,

and we all collectively looked at something fly south

that was incredibly large.

And two things that I remember is that there were

no planes landing at all.

That let me know the airport knew there was something

in the flight path and those planes

were either diverted or on standby,

but there was no planes landing.

Another thing is when I looked,

so we were all in this gaze.

And the reason why I know that is because something happened

that caused me to look away.

And when that happened, I noticed that everybody

was in this awe.

They were just mesmerized by what they were seeing.

And, you know, I looked around and that is when

I heard the sounds of dogs barking.

(dogs barking)

Now the very interesting thing,

and this is one thing I vividly remember,

is I could hear the dogs.

They were extremely loud and I could not see them

even though there were other cars.

I couldn't tell you if the bus was actually running,

but I do remember only hearing the sounds of the dogs

and nothing else.

And we stood there, we watched it for in between four

to maybe seven minutes.

No longer than 10 minutes.

It just glided out of view in a southeast direction

towards the I-10 Chandler, Tucson area.

And then, once it left our view,

we all got back on the bus and we went on our way.

Now, when I got off on Thomas,

I had missed my connecting bus going to 14th Street

so I decided to walk.

And as I'm walking, I got to about 7th Street

and I looked south and this is when I saw another set

of lights that were a different color

and it was a string of them that looked like

they were going into the Barry Goldwater Range.

These lights were not in the same placement

as the first set and they were not the same color.

So as I see them, I remember, but I also had forgotten

that fast that there was something that we saw

maybe an hour prior.

So I see the lights again, but they're different

in characteristics, the number of them,

even in placement.

So as I'm walking home,

I get to 14th Street, I get to my house,

I called my grandmother and she's already in her room.

Tell her to come outside, take a look at what I'm seeing

and what's going on.

And as I'm, you know, telling her this

and excited, I'm explaining to her everything that I saw

and she then comes outside and we both observed

that later event.

The Phoenix Lights took place really the entire year,

but the main event took place on March 13th and March 14th.

And once again, the news does not get this correct.

The news tells it as one event and they show the lights

that's famously known as Tom King's footage.

That footage specifically is from the 10:00 event,

9:45, 10:00 event.

Most of us that saw the boomerang that started up

in Henderson, Nevada and traveled to Paulden

and Prescott and Phoenix and all these different locations.

That was in between 7:55 and about 8:45.

And those were two separate events,

but the Phoenix Lights in reality lasted well into

the next morning.

And one of the crucial pieces of information

that a lot of people have forgotten is the three people,

the two military pilots, and the personnel who gave

the information to the mid-level reporter

they all kind of disappeared from existence.

- And we live in a desert,

so at nighttime we have wide open ...

And other places do, but there's not a lot of trees here.

I mean, there's pretty clear, unobstructed access

to the night sky.

And if you live a little bit outside of town,

those stars really have presence, right?

And so, movement outside of your car window

is very easy to spot because there's an unobstructed view

to what would be the horizon and so forth.

I'm not a person that follows UFOs

or any of that sort of stuff.

You know this famously.

(no audio)

- [Narrator] In May of 1953,

another notable UFO incident occurred near Kingman, Arizona.

Multiple witnesses reported seeing

a silver disk-shaped object crashed in the desert.

The military reportedly arrived quickly

and cordoned off the area leading to speculation

of a coverup.

While some believe it was an extraterrestrial craft,

other suggest it may have been a secret military experiment.

Upon further investigation,

it was later revealed that there were in fact

three disk-shaped objects that crashed in the Kingman area

and there's direct evidence that shows this incident

could've been caused by the testing site

in a neighboring state.

UFO researcher, Preston Dennett, says,

"Arizona has at least

a half a dozen UFO crash retrieval type events

and the Kingman crash is by far one of the most famous

and best verified."

- One of the most significant UFO events in Arizona history

is by far the Kingman UFO crash also known

as the Paradise Valley UFO crash.

What makes this case different from others

is that it has an enormous amount of verification to it.

There's a lot of different sources,

a lot of different witnesses,

and this makes it not only one of the most significant cases

in Arizona involving UFO crashes, but really one of

the best verified UFO crash cases on record.

- [Narrator] Before we get into the actual reports

of the multiple down craft,

you should know that the Atomic Energy Commission approved

a series of explosions during the spring of 1953

at a Nevada test site

under the code name Operation Upshot-Knothole.

The operation consisted of 11 different tests

of bombs that were deployed by air drop

and an artillery cannon known as Atomic Annie.

Parts of the evidence pertaining to the Kingman crash site

comes from an engineer who worked

at the test site in Nevada.

The engineer was taken from the test site

to the nearby Indian Springs Base that afternoon

and was told that he would be working on the crash

of a military vehicle under Project Blue Book.

The man with about 15 other people boarded

a military plane and were flown to Phoenix, Arizona.

When they arrived at Phoenix,

they were placed on a bus

and an additional 10 people joined them,

bringing the total number of individuals to 26.

The bus was completely blacked out

and they were not told where they were headed.

This trip took about four hours before they arrived

to their final destination.

As they got off the bus

they were immediately escorted by military police

to the location of the downed vehicle.

- Now this occurred on May 21, 1953.

And the first mention, as far as I can tell,

comes from researcher, Frank Scully.

We talked about it briefly in his book,

"Behind the Flying Saucers,"

which was all about UFO crash retrievals.

The book was largely debunked by researchers until

the subject of UFO crash retrievals started

to move to the forefront of UFO research

at which point researchers did take a second look at it.

However, according to Scully,

he did talk to first-hand sources of this UFO crash

and they told him that they were in Phoenix

when this crash occurred and were

on the scene shortly later.

On the scene, they found a small craft

that they said was 36 feet in diameter

and there were two deceased ETs.

And according to Frank Scully, and I quote,

"One of the little men was half out of the escape door

or hatch, as the doctor called it.

The little man was dead.

The other little fellow, there had been only a crew

of two on the ship, was sitting in his seat

at the control board.

He was also dead."

So this is the first report of the Kingman UFO crash.

It's certainly not the last.

Some of these details do contradict later reports,

so perhaps they didn't have all the information.

- [Narrator] Witnesses surrounding the area reported seeing

up to eight different saucer objects in the air

that appeared to be in attack mode,

but their aggressors weren't visible.

Out of the eight craft that were seen,

three of them were taken down and crashed in an area

just eight miles northeast of the Kingman Airport.

It is believed that out of the three crashed vehicles,

one of them was completely destroyed during impact

with the mountain.

The second craft was found complete and later observed

by the engineer.

And the third disk made contact with the top

of a nearby butte and landed miles north.

Due to the Aux Field in Kingman and surrounding areas,

the military was quickly scramble to secure the sites

until the retrieval teams arrived.

It has been discovered that military-issued canisters

from 1953 were in the area where the crash

is believed to have taken place.

- And the next information to come out in this case

comes from well-respected UFO researcher, MUFON,

the Mutual UFO Network.

His name is Richard Hall.

He's been in this field forever,

has written a number of books on the subject.

And in 1964,

Richard Hall says that he spoke to a gentleman

who would soon be a commander in Vietnam, so a good witness.

And this man told Richard Hall that in 1953

a UFO did in fact crash in Arizona.

This is presumably the Kingman crash.

And according to his source, his information,

there were actually four bodies recovered

and the craft was described as being 30 feet in diameter

and largely undamaged.

And as Richard Hall says, "I could not imagine

a less likely hoaxer."

However, the real big break in the case

comes from researcher, Raymond Fowler,

perhaps best known for his books

on the Betty Andreasson contactee case

and a very well-respected researcher

who talks to apparently a first-hand witness

who at first refused to give his name.

The story was told under the pseudonym Fritz Werner.

We now know his real name to be Arthur Stancil.

And he now testified under an affidavit

that he was there on the scene of this Kingman UFO crash.

Now Arthur Stancil was an engineer/manager

at the Air Material Command

at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio,

which if you know this field is UFO central.

This is where a lot of the materials from UFO crashes go,

so he's in a good position to know the truth

about the UFO crash.

He says that while he was employed there

he worked closely with a Dr. Eric Henry Wang

who was head of the Department of Special Studies.

At the time of this crash,

Arthur Stancil was actually at Frenchman's Flats in Nevada

studying the atomic bomb sites and the blast effects.

This is when he received a call that a UFO

had just crashed not too far away

and that Dr. Henry Wang had been placed in charge

of its recovery.

So it was Wang who ordered Arthur Stancil

to go to the site with a group of about 40 other scientists

to assist in the recovery of the Kingman UFO.

Now, it was Arthur Stancil's job to calculate

the velocity and the trajectory of the disk,

based on the structure of the UFO,

how deeply it had burrowed into the ground

and the entire blast pattern.

So according to Arthur,

he was taken on a bus onto the site.

The bus had blacked out windows.

He was told to concentrate only on his assigned duties

and not to walk around.

So he obeyed and exited the bus

and was taken to what he says was a 30-foot wide oval object

that he said was constructed on a "an unfamiliar metal,"

which resembled brushed aluminum.

And like Richard Hall's source,

Arthur Stancil said that this disk was undamaged

and it actually only penetrated about 20 inches

into the sand.

Now he did see a hatch.

It was about 3-1/2 feet high.

He didn't see any apparent landing gear.

After measuring the measurements of this crash site,

he concluded that this craft had struck the ground

at about 1,200 miles an hour.

He also concluded it was not manmade.

As he says in his own words, "The object was not built

by anything obviously that we know about on Earth."

It was more like a teardrop-shaped cigar,

like a streamlined cigar.

So of course, he was not the only person there.

He said the craft was being guarded by military police

and was inside a tent nearby that he saw.

And as he says, "I managed to glance inside this tent,"

he says, "At one point he saw the dead body

of a four-foot human-like creature

in a silver metallic suit."

The skin on its face was dark brown.

Apparently, it had been burned.

So according to Stancil,

he and each of the scientists was ordered

one by one and escorted to the site to perform

their specialty then was returned to the bus.

And afterwards, he was made to sign

an official secrets act and given oath never to reveal

what he had seen.

Now he did speak with another scientist

who said that he looked inside the object

and saw two, small swivel seats

and a strange-looking instrument panel.

Arthur Stancil did sign an affidavit testifying

to the truth of his testimony.

Researcher Leonard Stringfield is best known

for his research into UFO crash retrievals.

He was giving a lecture on the Kingman UFO crash

and he said afterwards a National Guard employee

approached him and told him that back in 1953

he was also stationed at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base

in Ohio and he was there when a group of crates arrived

from he says a UFO crash site in Arizona.

"And these crates," he said,

"contained three humanoid bodies."

"They were packed in dry ice

and each was about four feet tall."

"There were three male bodies and currently one female,"

he said.

Some of the crates also contained debris.

And according to this officer,

some of this debris did have strange,

sort of Sanskrit-like symbols on them.

So the witness did refuse to make a written statement.

He did ask his superiors if he could make

a written statement that would be opened upon his death.

His superiors emphatically denied this request.

So more and more information has come out over the years.

More recently, a lady by the name of Judy Woolcott

said that her husband told her that he was also

at the crash site and, in fact,

was one of the first people there.

At the time, he was on duty at the air control tower

in Kingman and that he and other personnel

were actually tracking this object

and watched on the scope as this object lost altitude

and then disappeared from their scopes.

Shortly later, they did actually physically see

a huge flash of light in the distance.

This is outside of the city of Kingman.

So Mr. Woolcott and a group of other men piled

into their Jeeps and drove to where they believed

this object had crashed.

And they searched the area for some time

before they finally came upon this object

that they said was partially embedded into the sand.

He didn't see any bodies, he said,

but he says he didn't see any damage to the craft either.

And it was about to examine it more closely

and this is when military officials arrived

and ordered them off the site.

Now according to Judy Woolcott,

her husband was taken back to the base

and told that absolutely nothing happened.

They did not see anything and they are not to speak of it.

However, according to her husband,

it was the buzz of the base.

Mr. Woolcott, Judy's husband, wrote all of this

in a letter to his wife when one week later

he was killed in action.

So that's a sad ending to that witness, unfortunately,

but other researchers have found

further verification of this.

One researcher, of course, is Linda Moulten Howe,

who says that she received confirmation

of the Kingman crash in a roundabout way.

She says that on April 9 in 1983,

she met with Richard Doty,

who is pretty well-known in this field.

This was at the AFOSI at Kirtland Air Force Base.

While there, she said she was shown a document

that was titled in all capital letters,

and I'll just quote it.

"BRIEFING PAPER FOR THE PRESIDENT

OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ABOUT THE SUBJECT

OF UNIDENTIFIED AERIAL CRAFT, UACS."

So Linda says she was beginning to read this document

and saw that it listed several

UFO crash retrieval incidents,

including the Aztec crash in New Mexico

and the Kingman crash in Arizona and several others.

So more and more information keeps coming forward.

More recently, more information comes

from whistleblower, Bill Uhouse,

who says that this disk was in effect actually given

to the US Military by the ETs.

This is quite a controversial statement,

but this is what Bill Uhouse says.

He says, and I quote, "This ET craft was a controlled craft,

that the aliens wanted to present to our government."

It landed about 15 minutes from what used to be

an Army air base, which is now a defunct Army base.

And according to him, the first soldiers to enter

the craft reportedly became

very much nauseous and disoriented.

And when they exited the craft,

they had no memory of actually being inside.

So perhaps, this is an explanation

for some of the missing time incidents.

It's just environment of the craft itself

that could cause a person to have amnesia problems.

But according to Bill Uhouse, this disk, he says,

"was transported first to Area 51."

And as he says, "It made loud humming noises

the whole time."

The military didn't know what to do.

They weren't sure if it was going to explode or what

so they left it sitting out in the open on the tarmac

for nine months.

So I don't know, that's interesting testimony,

and there's more coming.

Most recently, researcher Len Kasten has uncovered

a source that he says the Paradise Valley craft,

the Kingman crash actually contained live aliens

who survived the aliens and ended up working

with the United States Military.

And according to Len Kasten,

his source told him that this Kingman UFO became

the model that was used to reverse engineer other UFOs.

That the ETs actually assisted helping military scientists

to understand and use the craft.

So there is all kinds of interesting testimony

about this case.

More testimony comes from Robert Carr.

He's another very early whistleblower.

He was apparently brought in to study ETs

because he's an expert in nonverbal communication

and was apparently one of the scientists, "in the know,"

on this subject when it came to crashed saucers.

And he went on record talking about it long before

Bob Lazar and the many other researchers we see today.

Now normally they're very tight-lipped on the subject.

He rarely granted interviews.

He did get an interview to researcher, Gray Barker,

during which she revealed some facts

about the Paradise Valley or Kingman UFO crash.

And I will just quote Robert Carr directly

as he says, "The other wreck was found that summer

in the desert in Arizona by visual observation.

This one was burned and it had been out there

in the desert for too long.

There were organic materials left.

With the predators and the heat of the desert,

it pretty well taken care of the occupants,

but they scooped it up and took it along."

So that is the Kingman, Paradise Valley UFO crash,

some of the information.

Of course, there's more information being uncovered

all the time.

Some of these testimonies do contradict each other,

but some are remarkably similar in details.

The size of the craft, what it looked like,

where it came down, the fact that there were bodies in it,

and the fact that there are so many people talking about it,

I think lends credence to the fact that this was

a real event. - An event involving

the military surely took place in the Kingman area

in May of 1953.

However, it is possible that the nuclear test

in a neighboring state caused these eight unknown craft

to take defensive positions that were later reported

by the witnesses. - But even I have seen

some wild stuff.

Well, one particular instance driving back from Vegas

all through the desert, back to Phoenix.

And I was with a friend of mine.

And, you know, we both saw it too.

What is that?

One of those light things just kind of moving

in a manner that is inconsistent with helicopter

or an airplane or anything.

It kind of was just zigzagging and staying in one place

and zigzagging again.

It was moving way too quick to be anything

that I could explain.

And so, I wanna make sure that,

for the sake of our listeners, I establish that,

you know, we live in a sort of strange place

where these things are a little bit more observable,

I'll say. - Yes.

- And it has to be the case.

And then, obviously, I wanna acknowledge

that, you know, I grew up in the same world as you were.

I watched "Independence Day," and I remember

the old crazy guy that was like,

"I got abducted by aliens," and on and on.

So I do wanna shift gears a bit.

I want you to talk about ...

(soft music)

- [Narrator] The Travis Walton abduction case

is one of the most well-known

and controversial alien abduction incidents in history.

On November 5, 1975, Travis Walton and a group

of fellow loggers were working

in the Sitgreaves National Forest near Snowflake, Arizona.

(soft music)

Although the focus is primarily

on the alleged abduction itself,

the initial sighting of the UFO by Travis Walton

and his coworkers is a crucial part of the story.

The bright light and the subsequent disappearance

of Walton have been the subject

of much debate and speculation.

According to the witnesses,

they saw a bright light coming from the forest

and went to investigate. (soft music)

As Walton approached,

he was struck by a beam of light,

causing him to disappear. (soft music)

His terrified coworkers initially fled the scene,

but eventually returned to search for him,

but Walton was nowhere to be found.

After five days of intense search efforts

led by law enforcement, Walton reappeared

in Heber, Arizona claiming to have been abducted by a UFO

and taken on board an extraterrestrial craft.

He described being a subject of various medical examinations

and interactions with nonhuman entities

before being returned.

The incident gained widespread media attention

and was later adapted into the movie,

"Fire in the Sky," in 1993.

This case has been both praised and criticized

with some believing Walton's account

and others dismissing it as a hoax

or a misinterpretation of events.

(soft music)

Despite the controversy, Walton has consistently maintained

his story over the years

and has passed multiple polygraph tests.

His coworkers also took lie detector tests,

which indicated that they believed something

out of the ordinary had occurred.

However, skeptics argue that polygraph tests

are not foolproof and do not provide definitive proof

of the abduction.

The Travis Walton case remains one of the most famous

and debated abduction cases with no conclusive evidence

either supporting or disproving his claims.

It continues to fascinate and intrigue both believers

and skeptics of extraterrestrial encounters.

One thing is for certain, Travis Walton

has always maintained that he was abducted

and witness testimony from those who were there that night

supports everything that he stated.

At what point do we begin to take the word of honest people

over scientific evidence?

It's important to note that the credibility and evidence

surrounding these sightings vary

and many remain unexplained.

They continue to captivate the imagination

and fuel speculation of the existence

of extraterrestrial life beyond this planet.

(upbeat music)

- Headline reads, "US Urged to Reveal UFO Evidence

After Claim that it has Intact Alien Vehicles."

Whistleblower, former intelligence official says,

"Government posses intact and partially intact craft

of nonhuman origin."

- One of the most significant UFO events in Arizona history

is by far the Kingman UFO crash.

- Thank you for having me.

I'm just one of 1,000s of people

that witnessed the Phoenix Lights that night.

- [Speaker 3] Look at it.

Like, there's energy coming out.

Look, look, look, look. - Oh.

- [Speaker 3] Look what my phone's catching, babe.

(person speaks indistinctly)

Dude, that was fucking aliens as fuck.

- [Speaker 5] Babe, why does it look like that?

- Dude, look at it through- - And it's disappearing-

- the visual eye. - It's closing.

- It's closed. It's closed. - You can't see it,

but with mine- - Yeah, mine you can't.

Mine doesn't show it like his. - Look. And it's done.

It went away. It went away.

It went to the star that got bright.

Watch that star do something. - That's no star-

- [Speaker 3] That's not a star, it's a ship.

Look at that weirdness. - Look at his phone.

- [Speaker 4] Dude, it fucking went away.

- [Speaker 3] That whole fucking ship went away.

Like, it's like a ... - Weird like a cloud.

I can't see-

- [Speaker 3] Dude, I just caught something

extraterrestrial on my fucking phone, but that's sick.

We were just,

look at it, look at when I zoom in on this.

How it's all, like, absorbing that energy.

Remember, I told you that fucking star

got bright as fuck.

- [Speaker 4] Do you remember I told you what

I seen, like a (indistinct).

That wasn't a satellite or anything we seen earlier.

- [Speaker 3] And how many came out of there, dude?

Like- - Like fucking 12.

- [Speaker 3] Easily 12 little things.

You can't see it on my phone, but like-

- [Speaker 4] Yeah, and it disappeared at the same spot.

- [Speaker 3] Like, they went from right there

and then they went this way.

And then, it hit that little, where's the other star?

You can't see. Oh, that star.

That star right there.

They would go from that, B,

and they would come to this and get disappear.

- [Speaker 4] Disappear at the same time, the same-

- [Speaker 3] And it was like every five seconds.

Every five seconds one would ...
