1
00:00:22,105 --> 00:00:24,983
When we first moved here
in March of 2020...

2
00:00:26,985 --> 00:00:31,206
the very first time
that I saw something in the sky,

3
00:00:31,406 --> 00:00:33,834
I really hesitated
to say anything to anybody.

4
00:00:34,034 --> 00:00:36,837
But it happened repetitively,
maybe three, four times,

5
00:00:37,037 --> 00:00:38,922
before I mentioned it
to somebody down in Dublin.

6
00:00:39,122 --> 00:00:42,167
They said, "Well, you know
that this place is famous for that."

7
00:00:44,169 --> 00:00:45,387
Do you know who Ezekiel was?

8
00:00:45,587 --> 00:00:46,680
Prophet?

9
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:48,932
- Ezekiel was a prophet. You're right.
- Mm-hmm.

10
00:00:49,132 --> 00:00:52,143
And it was a <i>long</i> time ago, all right?

11
00:00:52,343 --> 00:00:53,979
As a Homeland Security consultant,

12
00:00:54,179 --> 00:00:57,807
I do a lot of threat analyst work,
uh, for the government.

13
00:00:58,391 --> 00:01:01,269
I've seen the government flat-out lie.

14
00:01:01,770 --> 00:01:04,856
Where I was standing in the location
they were lying about.

15
00:01:06,274 --> 00:01:09,411
What I am seeing here is similar

16
00:01:09,611 --> 00:01:12,405
to sightings that they had
by the guys in the Air Force.

17
00:01:14,365 --> 00:01:15,992
<i>Whoa! Got it!</i>

18
00:01:17,077 --> 00:01:19,045
It's the movement
that catches your attention,

19
00:01:19,245 --> 00:01:19,963
that fast movement.

20
00:01:20,163 --> 00:01:22,165
That's exactly how we're seeing it here.

21
00:01:25,460 --> 00:01:28,430
- Ah, jeez.
- I know, right? Spooky.

22
00:01:28,630 --> 00:01:32,058
It's something otherworldly.
There's no other way to describe that.

23
00:01:32,258 --> 00:01:35,979
"And the star they had seen
guided them to Bethlehem."

24
00:01:36,179 --> 00:01:38,523
One of the reasons
why a lot of people don't believe

25
00:01:38,723 --> 00:01:41,234
is because they haven't seen it,

26
00:01:41,434 --> 00:01:46,523
and it messes with their concept
of who we are in relation to the universe.

27
00:01:47,023 --> 00:01:49,526
...and it guided them,
so it knew where it was going.

28
00:01:50,235 --> 00:01:51,286
- Right?
- Mm-hmm.

29
00:01:51,486 --> 00:01:53,071
That mean... That means it was...

30
00:01:53,655 --> 00:01:54,655
UFO.

31
00:01:55,073 --> 00:01:56,282
UFO.

32
00:01:59,119 --> 00:02:01,379
Do I believe there's life
on other planets? Yes.

33
00:02:01,579 --> 00:02:04,174
But I don't think
these are people from another planet.

34
00:02:04,374 --> 00:02:06,918
I still think these are
what people called angels.

35
00:02:08,002 --> 00:02:09,587
I think they're messengers.

36
00:02:10,171 --> 00:02:12,340
I mean, I'm dying to know
what they've got to say.

37
00:02:18,638 --> 00:02:20,398
<i>From the beginning
of recorded time,</i>

38
00:02:20,598 --> 00:02:23,401
<i>men have been seeing
unexplainable things in the sky.</i>

39
00:02:23,601 --> 00:02:25,695
<i>Are we alone in the universe?</i>

40
00:02:25,895 --> 00:02:29,282
<i>Somewhere in the data
will be something worth real inquiry.</i>

41
00:02:29,482 --> 00:02:31,242
<i>We have not been hiding anything.</i>

42
00:02:31,442 --> 00:02:33,328
<i>There are such things
as interplanetary spaceships.</i>

43
00:02:33,528 --> 00:02:35,956
<i>I thought it was an alien,
and he had big eyes.</i>

44
00:02:36,156 --> 00:02:39,042
<i>There's something
profoundly important going on here</i>

45
00:02:39,242 --> 00:02:40,869
<i>that is authentic and real.</i>

46
00:03:11,482 --> 00:03:13,735
How much of your work
is classified?

47
00:03:14,611 --> 00:03:15,704
All of it.

48
00:03:15,904 --> 00:03:19,115
Eh, all of... Everything I did,
all day long, was classified.

49
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,200
All of it.

50
00:03:21,784 --> 00:03:23,628
{an8}My name is Matthew Roberts.

51
00:03:23,828 --> 00:03:29,584
{an8}I was a cryptologic technician
in the US Navy for 16 years.

52
00:03:31,377 --> 00:03:34,472
I was present
on the USS Theodore Roosevelt

53
00:03:34,672 --> 00:03:35,849
for the Gimbal event.

54
00:03:36,049 --> 00:03:37,550
{an8}<i>Look at that thing, dude.</i>

55
00:03:38,676 --> 00:03:40,186
{an8}So, uh...

56
00:03:40,386 --> 00:03:43,723
{an8}... that was the first time
I saw the Gimbal footage.

57
00:03:45,350 --> 00:03:47,652
<i>- Well, if there's...
- Look at this thing!</i>

58
00:03:47,852 --> 00:03:48,853
<i>It's rotating.</i>

59
00:03:50,772 --> 00:03:52,866
I don't... I can't even describe the shape.

60
00:03:53,066 --> 00:03:55,535
I mean, it looks a little bit disc-like.

61
00:03:55,735 --> 00:03:57,203
It's flying along,

62
00:03:57,403 --> 00:04:00,406
and then it kind of tilts up
onto its side.

63
00:04:02,700 --> 00:04:03,960
I was watching this footage,

64
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:08,214
and I could see
no kind of aviation surfaces

65
00:04:08,414 --> 00:04:09,966
that you would expect to see.

66
00:04:10,166 --> 00:04:12,761
Wings, tail, you know, rudder.

67
00:04:12,961 --> 00:04:14,012
There's none of that.

68
00:04:14,212 --> 00:04:15,722
So I couldn't really make sense

69
00:04:15,922 --> 00:04:19,934
of why this thing was
kind of up in the air like it was.

70
00:04:20,134 --> 00:04:21,135
And...

71
00:04:22,303 --> 00:04:23,063
I just...

72
00:04:23,263 --> 00:04:27,350
I had this kind of
emotional response to it.

73
00:04:28,559 --> 00:04:32,689
And I... At the time,
I didn't understand that. Um...

74
00:04:34,148 --> 00:04:36,117
I knew that it wasn't ours, right?

75
00:04:36,317 --> 00:04:40,697
I knew that it wasn't anybody else's. Uh...

76
00:04:43,741 --> 00:04:49,622
So, I mean, that only leaves...
one other option, I think.

77
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,095
- Which is what?
- And that's non-human tech.

78
00:04:55,295 --> 00:04:57,588
Non-human intelligence technology.

79
00:05:02,468 --> 00:05:08,149
Because my job was classified,
and I had access to classified, um...

80
00:05:08,349 --> 00:05:09,851
I was kind of aware...

81
00:05:11,227 --> 00:05:14,447
this was not a one-off event for the Navy.

82
00:05:14,647 --> 00:05:18,609
This, uh... These things happen frequently.

83
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,321
All the time.

84
00:05:22,071 --> 00:05:23,448
They happen all the time.

85
00:05:44,719 --> 00:05:48,264
<i>The skies over Stephenville
haven't looked the same since a UFO...</i>

86
00:05:52,643 --> 00:05:53,570
<i>Milk Duds!</i>

87
00:05:53,770 --> 00:05:56,447
<i>A nice, cold glass
of Borden milk will cool you off.</i>

88
00:05:56,647 --> 00:05:59,075
<i>You'll like the taste of milk
with everything you eat.</i>

89
00:05:59,275 --> 00:06:02,028
<i>♪ Milk is a natural ♪</i>

90
00:06:09,619 --> 00:06:13,423
Stephenville, Texas.
The milk capital of the world.

91
00:06:13,623 --> 00:06:16,092
They put out quite a bit of milk
over there.

92
00:06:16,292 --> 00:06:19,420
Something very strange about this area.

93
00:06:20,046 --> 00:06:21,806
I look at the sky quite often.

94
00:06:22,006 --> 00:06:25,551
Wonder what all's out there.
Wonder what we don't know about.

95
00:06:28,888 --> 00:06:30,306
I grew up around here.

96
00:06:33,810 --> 00:06:35,528
Nothing to do in these small towns.

97
00:06:35,728 --> 00:06:38,114
You wanna fight?
Sure, go ahead and have a fight.

98
00:06:38,314 --> 00:06:41,492
That same night, we'd go camping
or go fishing on the river down there.

99
00:06:41,692 --> 00:06:44,821
So, it was... It's innocent fun.
We'd have a good time.

100
00:06:46,656 --> 00:06:50,043
{an8}You know, I've been fascinated
with engines of all types

101
00:06:50,243 --> 00:06:51,920
since I can remember.

102
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,964
So much to where
I started a trucking company.

103
00:06:55,164 --> 00:06:58,876
And it became quite large,
had quite a few people working for me.

104
00:07:03,965 --> 00:07:08,886
I've always owned quite a few motorcycles,
boats, airplanes.

105
00:07:09,595 --> 00:07:13,274
Just to see how it all works.
It's just simply fascinating.

106
00:07:13,474 --> 00:07:15,985
In 2008, I had a great life.

107
00:07:16,185 --> 00:07:18,071
I had a successful business.

108
00:07:18,271 --> 00:07:21,691
I guess I'd been married 16,
17 years at that time.

109
00:07:23,025 --> 00:07:24,819
Very blessed is all I can say.

110
00:07:26,362 --> 00:07:30,450
But what I saw in the sky that night
changed everything.

111
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,302
It'd been a long, cold winter. Bad winter.

112
00:07:41,502 --> 00:07:44,013
That was the first day
we had a decent day.

113
00:07:44,213 --> 00:07:47,717
So we came out here
to the top of the hill to have a campfire.

114
00:07:49,677 --> 00:07:53,097
It was myself, Mike Odom, and Lance Jones.

115
00:07:53,764 --> 00:07:54,857
Then all of a sudden,

116
00:07:55,057 --> 00:07:57,602
I see some real bright,
high-intensity lights,

117
00:07:58,478 --> 00:08:01,856
off to the east, headed our way
at a high velocity of speed.

118
00:08:03,232 --> 00:08:06,494
The lights were so bright,
it was unlike anything I'd ever seen.

119
00:08:06,694 --> 00:08:08,905
It was almost blinding to look at 'em.

120
00:08:09,739 --> 00:08:10,707
Then what amazed me

121
00:08:10,907 --> 00:08:14,168
is there was no wind noise,
no engine noise.

122
00:08:14,368 --> 00:08:15,661
There was silence.

123
00:08:18,372 --> 00:08:21,759
When it came past us,
I developed the most peaceful,

124
00:08:21,959 --> 00:08:24,754
easy feeling
I think I've ever had in my life.

125
00:08:26,255 --> 00:08:28,674
It was almost like a religious experience.

126
00:08:29,425 --> 00:08:32,478
Like I was at one with whatever it was.

127
00:08:32,678 --> 00:08:36,265
Something I've never had
before or since then. It was unreal.

128
00:08:38,267 --> 00:08:41,029
And then another brief second,
it just simply disappeared.

129
00:08:41,229 --> 00:08:44,273
It didn't streak off or anything.
It just disappeared.

130
00:08:45,483 --> 00:08:48,411
And then you could count,
one second, two seconds, three seconds,

131
00:08:48,611 --> 00:08:51,706
and two F-16s came in hot pursuit.

132
00:08:51,906 --> 00:08:53,491
Full afterburner hanging out.

133
00:08:55,117 --> 00:08:56,586
And in my head, I'm wondering,

134
00:08:56,786 --> 00:08:59,372
"Is it <i>War of the Worlds,</i>
or what was going on?"

135
00:09:01,249 --> 00:09:03,426
I got in my car,
and I went back to my house,

136
00:09:03,626 --> 00:09:05,178
and my wife says, "What happened?"

137
00:09:05,378 --> 00:09:07,472
She could tell I was visibly shaken.

138
00:09:07,672 --> 00:09:09,349
I told her what happened, and she says,

139
00:09:09,549 --> 00:09:11,926
"Whatever you do,
don't tell anybody about it."

140
00:09:12,426 --> 00:09:14,437
And she says,
"People will think we're crazy."

141
00:09:14,637 --> 00:09:17,315
And I said, "Actually, I don't care
what people think about us."

142
00:09:17,515 --> 00:09:18,975
"All I know is what I saw."

143
00:09:20,685 --> 00:09:25,606
That next day, I called the newspaper,
<i>Stephenville Empire-Tribune. "ET."</i>

144
00:09:27,483 --> 00:09:30,611
It had been a slow news day,
the day that the UFO story broke.

145
00:09:32,822 --> 00:09:34,415
Angelia Joiner was
in the newsroom,

146
00:09:34,615 --> 00:09:36,250
and she had gotten a call
from Steve Allen.

147
00:09:36,450 --> 00:09:37,668
And he was a local pilot,

148
00:09:37,868 --> 00:09:41,080
and then he told her
that he saw something strange in the sky.

149
00:09:42,206 --> 00:09:45,218
He said something like, "Okay,
I really need to tell you something,

150
00:09:45,418 --> 00:09:47,720
but I don't want you to think I'm crazy."

151
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:52,850
{an8}And he began telling me a story
that, uh, I found pretty incredible.

152
00:09:53,050 --> 00:09:56,229
{an8}Angelia had a brief conversation with
him and came to my office and said,

153
00:09:56,429 --> 00:09:57,605
{an8}"You'll never believe this, but..."

154
00:09:57,805 --> 00:10:00,900
It was late in the afternoon,
and we really had our stories together.

155
00:10:01,100 --> 00:10:03,152
So I was like, "Yeah, sure, check it out."

156
00:10:03,352 --> 00:10:05,552
"We'll talk about it tomorrow
when I get to the office."

157
00:10:08,983 --> 00:10:11,744
I grew up in California. I got engaged.

158
00:10:11,944 --> 00:10:14,914
And my husband was in the dairy business,
and his family had come out here.

159
00:10:15,114 --> 00:10:17,116
So we got married and we moved.

160
00:10:18,576 --> 00:10:21,078
It was a startling change for me.

161
00:10:23,789 --> 00:10:27,343
As managing editor,
I was responsible for all of the content.

162
00:10:27,543 --> 00:10:28,344
I had a lot to prove.

163
00:10:28,544 --> 00:10:30,638
I was the youngest editor

164
00:10:30,838 --> 00:10:33,358
that had ever been hired
to be the managing editor of the paper.

165
00:10:33,841 --> 00:10:35,226
I was the second female.

166
00:10:35,426 --> 00:10:37,678
And I was still seen as an outsider.

167
00:10:38,304 --> 00:10:42,850
So, inside, I was dealing
with a lot of insecurity, I think.

168
00:10:46,312 --> 00:10:49,282
The next morning, I picked up my paper

169
00:10:49,482 --> 00:10:54,028
and saw "UFO" in huge font
across the top of the paper.

170
00:10:55,404 --> 00:10:58,207
I just felt like the wind
was just completely knocked out of me.

171
00:10:58,407 --> 00:11:00,501
I thought, "This is the end of my career."

172
00:11:00,701 --> 00:11:02,462
"Steve Allen, Mike Odom, and Lance Jones

173
00:11:02,662 --> 00:11:05,423
were out admiring
a beautiful Texas sunset Tuesday evening

174
00:11:05,623 --> 00:11:08,259
when they saw something
none of them can explain."

175
00:11:08,459 --> 00:11:09,510
I had a publisher at the time,

176
00:11:09,710 --> 00:11:12,054
and she told Angelia,
"You're going with this tonight."

177
00:11:12,254 --> 00:11:13,964
And she changed the whole front page.

178
00:11:14,590 --> 00:11:17,101
She was the boss, the top dog,
so she did whatever she wanted.

179
00:11:17,301 --> 00:11:18,686
But I was in charge of the newsroom,

180
00:11:18,886 --> 00:11:21,856
and so I felt like people
were gonna question my credibility.

181
00:11:22,056 --> 00:11:23,107
My news judgment.

182
00:11:23,307 --> 00:11:25,893
"The ship wasn't really visible
and it was totally silent,

183
00:11:26,477 --> 00:11:28,446
but the lights spanned
a mile-and-a-half long

184
00:11:28,646 --> 00:11:30,189
and a mile-and-a-half wide."

185
00:11:30,898 --> 00:11:32,200
That really sent me over the edge.

186
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,535
I mean, aside from the headline,
just "the ship."

187
00:11:34,735 --> 00:11:36,370
Like, we were naturally assuming

188
00:11:36,570 --> 00:11:38,781
that this was some kind
of a spaceship out there.

189
00:11:40,324 --> 00:11:43,669
When I walked through those doors,
I was like a crazy woman. I was furious.

190
00:11:43,869 --> 00:11:47,757
Walking into the publisher's office,
and I was screaming and crying.

191
00:11:47,957 --> 00:11:49,634
I mean, like, "You have..."
"What have you done?"

192
00:11:49,834 --> 00:11:51,219
She was like, "Well, you're wrong."

193
00:11:51,419 --> 00:11:53,513
"You are... you're absolutely wrong
about all of this."

194
00:11:53,713 --> 00:11:56,507
"We've sold out every newspaper
in the county."

195
00:11:58,634 --> 00:12:02,930
{an8}When I started reading the story,
my brain just goes 100 miles an hour.

196
00:12:03,431 --> 00:12:07,309
{an8}I thought to myself,
"Man, what I saw, other people saw it."

197
00:12:08,060 --> 00:12:10,354
You know, "Do I tell anybody?
What do I do?"

198
00:12:17,361 --> 00:12:21,574
It was my wife's birthday,
and we wanted to rent a movie.

199
00:12:22,158 --> 00:12:25,294
And I came outside to my squad car

200
00:12:25,494 --> 00:12:26,871
to get my credit card.

201
00:12:28,497 --> 00:12:29,832
As I'm walking back,

202
00:12:30,374 --> 00:12:32,501
something caught my attention.

203
00:12:33,669 --> 00:12:35,638
I saw what appeared...

204
00:12:35,838 --> 00:12:38,132
I-I call it a bubble or an orb.

205
00:12:39,008 --> 00:12:42,436
It was a, uh, reddish-orange,
fiery-looking color.

206
00:12:42,636 --> 00:12:43,763
Really big.

207
00:12:44,430 --> 00:12:46,015
And I focused in on it.

208
00:12:46,766 --> 00:12:48,476
And that's when I noticed...

209
00:12:50,144 --> 00:12:52,521
my little boy, and he said, "Look, Dad."

210
00:12:54,398 --> 00:12:56,409
There was these bright lights,

211
00:12:56,609 --> 00:12:58,995
flashing, like a pulsating thing.

212
00:12:59,195 --> 00:13:00,195
Like that.

213
00:13:01,197 --> 00:13:02,364
They had spread out.

214
00:13:03,365 --> 00:13:06,619
There was 11 or 12 lights
that I was able to count.

215
00:13:07,536 --> 00:13:08,546
All of a sudden,

216
00:13:08,746 --> 00:13:12,466
these things just shoot off
at a blazing speed.

217
00:13:12,666 --> 00:13:17,004
Well, it was probably what seemed
to be maybe a minute or two, uh,

218
00:13:17,755 --> 00:13:19,256
I hear jets coming.

219
00:13:20,341 --> 00:13:25,471
They were flying in the same direction,
the same path as these lights.

220
00:13:27,181 --> 00:13:31,227
You know, I think those jets were
the same ones that Steve Allen saw.

221
00:13:32,603 --> 00:13:37,158
After the newspaper came out,
I get the call from Lee Roy Gaitan.

222
00:13:37,358 --> 00:13:39,035
I didn't know him at the time,

223
00:13:39,235 --> 00:13:40,661
but he told me his story,

224
00:13:40,861 --> 00:13:44,081
which, time-wise,
matched exactly what ours did.

225
00:13:44,281 --> 00:13:47,710
And I said, "Lee Roy, can you help us out
with this a little bit?"

226
00:13:47,910 --> 00:13:49,787
And he said, "No, I can't. I'm sorry."

227
00:13:51,455 --> 00:13:54,800
I'm voted in
by my peers to protect them,

228
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,636
just like the sheriff is.

229
00:13:56,836 --> 00:13:59,513
What are they gonna think,
that I'm one of the guys that said,

230
00:13:59,713 --> 00:14:00,640
"I saw these lights"?

231
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,141
I thought it was gonna ruin me.

232
00:14:02,341 --> 00:14:05,645
And I said, "I understand,"
but I said, "Come on, Lee Roy."

233
00:14:05,845 --> 00:14:08,639
"I need somebody
with a little credibility to add to it."

234
00:14:09,390 --> 00:14:11,942
He said,
"I saw something special. You did too."

235
00:14:12,142 --> 00:14:14,278
"And I think the world needs to know."

236
00:14:14,478 --> 00:14:18,774
Somebody like Lee Roy Gaitan
has a lot to lose.

237
00:14:19,567 --> 00:14:21,285
I have a lot of respect for him

238
00:14:21,485 --> 00:14:24,580
because when I called,
he hesitated a little bit.

239
00:14:24,780 --> 00:14:26,582
Then he said,
"No, I think it's important."

240
00:14:26,782 --> 00:14:29,210
He said that,
"What we saw was really different."

241
00:14:29,410 --> 00:14:33,172
<i>I just saw some strange lights,
traveling at a high rate of speed,</i>

242
00:14:33,372 --> 00:14:34,215
<i>doing some things</i>

243
00:14:34,415 --> 00:14:36,333
<i>that I've never seen anything
before in my life.</i>

244
00:14:37,209 --> 00:14:40,096
That was, I think,
the first big county official

245
00:14:40,296 --> 00:14:43,048
that she was able to get
that went on the record with it.

246
00:14:43,591 --> 00:14:45,968
Gave, really,
the stories a lot of credibility.

247
00:14:52,224 --> 00:14:54,235
When I first heard
about these reports,

248
00:14:54,435 --> 00:14:58,114
the first thing that went through my mind,
"Okay, something significant happened."

249
00:14:58,314 --> 00:15:01,450
Now, as to what happened,
at that point, I didn't know.

250
00:15:01,650 --> 00:15:03,861
But it was definitely worth investigating.

251
00:15:05,029 --> 00:15:06,664
My degree's in chemistry.

252
00:15:06,864 --> 00:15:10,200
I was an engineering manager
in the semiconductor field.

253
00:15:10,826 --> 00:15:12,378
And for the last 16 years,

254
00:15:12,578 --> 00:15:16,424
{an8}I have spent my time
studying the UFO phenomenon.

255
00:15:16,624 --> 00:15:21,086
{an8}And my goal has always been
to try to bring science to this subject.

256
00:15:22,421 --> 00:15:25,674
MUFON stands for the Mutual UFO Network.

257
00:15:26,300 --> 00:15:28,269
It's an organization

258
00:15:28,469 --> 00:15:30,429
that investigates UFO sightings.

259
00:15:31,388 --> 00:15:32,857
In 2008,

260
00:15:33,057 --> 00:15:35,359
I was the director of research at MUFON.

261
00:15:35,559 --> 00:15:39,989
And I remember
I was monitoring reports as they came in,

262
00:15:40,189 --> 00:15:43,409
and I suddenly saw over 20 reports

263
00:15:43,609 --> 00:15:46,370
in one geographic area,
Stephenville and Dublin.

264
00:15:46,570 --> 00:15:49,156
And I knew then
that something unusual had happened.

265
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,463
My view at that point in time was,
"We need to get there as soon as possible

266
00:15:55,663 --> 00:15:59,375
and investigate this
while everyone's memory is fresh."

267
00:16:01,585 --> 00:16:05,681
We were contacted by MUFON,
and I'd never heard of MUFON.

268
00:16:05,881 --> 00:16:08,309
But they wanted to set up
an investigation.

269
00:16:08,509 --> 00:16:10,978
And so we said,
"Well, we've got the Rotary building,

270
00:16:11,178 --> 00:16:13,222
and-and you're welcome to come in here."

271
00:16:15,265 --> 00:16:18,560
I'm chairman of the board
of the First National Bank of Dublin.

272
00:16:20,104 --> 00:16:24,742
My grandfather was mayor of Dublin
in the '30s.

273
00:16:24,942 --> 00:16:27,536
And then my, um, dad was mayor.

274
00:16:27,736 --> 00:16:29,330
My brother was mayor.

275
00:16:29,530 --> 00:16:33,959
{an8}So, yeah, we've been in Erath County,
in this area, for a long time.

276
00:16:34,159 --> 00:16:36,879
<i>Investigators
from the Mutual UFO Network</i>

277
00:16:37,079 --> 00:16:40,207
<i>plan to look into
the Stephenville sightings this weekend.</i>

278
00:16:41,458 --> 00:16:45,471
I was setting things up,
and the guy said, "35 is probably max."

279
00:16:45,671 --> 00:16:48,298
"I don't know
if we've ever had that many show up."

280
00:16:49,091 --> 00:16:51,769
We set up 35, 40 chairs there,

281
00:16:51,969 --> 00:16:53,679
and then the door opens up.

282
00:16:54,346 --> 00:16:56,598
And it's like... It just filled up.

283
00:16:57,307 --> 00:16:59,944
<i>Hundreds of people
crowded Dublin's Rotary Club</i>

284
00:17:00,144 --> 00:17:01,028
<i>to share their stories.</i>

285
00:17:01,228 --> 00:17:05,074
<i>What I saw was a very large blue light.</i>

286
00:17:05,274 --> 00:17:06,450
<i>These were big, round objects.</i>

287
00:17:06,650 --> 00:17:09,495
<i>You can't see through it.
You can't see in it.</i>

288
00:17:09,695 --> 00:17:11,947
<i>It was going so fast,
and it didn't make any noise.</i>

289
00:17:15,492 --> 00:17:16,961
The building was packed.

290
00:17:17,161 --> 00:17:19,547
There were people even outside
on the sidewalk.

291
00:17:19,747 --> 00:17:23,133
Some of the people who had come,
they just turned around and walked off.

292
00:17:23,333 --> 00:17:26,178
They didn't even want to deal
with the number of people there.

293
00:17:26,378 --> 00:17:28,389
<i>At least 500 people
filled the room.</i>

294
00:17:28,589 --> 00:17:30,174
<i>Witnesses who saw the light.</i>

295
00:17:30,674 --> 00:17:32,810
The MUFON folks
were kinda just taken aback

296
00:17:33,010 --> 00:17:35,521
because they've never seen
anything like this.

297
00:17:35,721 --> 00:17:38,148
In an extremely
small number of cases

298
00:17:38,348 --> 00:17:40,150
will we get a mass sighting like this.

299
00:17:40,350 --> 00:17:41,902
We put all those chairs out,

300
00:17:42,102 --> 00:17:45,573
and there were still people
standing around the room.

301
00:17:45,773 --> 00:17:48,200
All right, if I could see a show of hands
who the witnesses are.

302
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,328
It was like everybody there
had seen something.

303
00:17:51,528 --> 00:17:53,205
We're approaching
a hundred people, probably,

304
00:17:53,405 --> 00:17:56,041
that have seen something
in regard to this.

305
00:17:56,241 --> 00:17:59,044
The Houston papers are there,
the Dallas papers,

306
00:17:59,244 --> 00:18:01,380
the papers from outside of Texas.

307
00:18:01,580 --> 00:18:03,874
The best way I can describe it
was a media circus.

308
00:18:05,250 --> 00:18:07,386
The next day or two,
we were just inundated

309
00:18:07,586 --> 00:18:09,638
with media from all over the country.

310
00:18:09,838 --> 00:18:11,765
Dozens of people in a small Texas town

311
00:18:11,965 --> 00:18:14,268
are talking about
some unexpected visitors.

312
00:18:14,468 --> 00:18:16,312
- Do you guys believe in UFOs?
- Yes.

313
00:18:16,512 --> 00:18:17,605
- I think it's possible.
- Yes.

314
00:18:17,805 --> 00:18:20,891
I realized that the entire city
had totally transformed.

315
00:18:22,643 --> 00:18:24,904
<i>Skies over Stephenville
haven't looked the same</i>

316
00:18:25,104 --> 00:18:29,283
<i>since a UFO reportedly
made tracks across it January 8th.</i>

317
00:18:29,483 --> 00:18:31,493
<i>Stephenville,
the North Texas town,</i>

318
00:18:31,693 --> 00:18:33,237
<i>is swept up in UFO mania.</i>

319
00:18:33,821 --> 00:18:36,707
They had Japanese film crews,
Brazilian film crews.

320
00:18:36,907 --> 00:18:40,711
The Japanese film crews asked,
"Why does it keep coming to Stephenville?"

321
00:18:40,911 --> 00:18:42,129
Then, jokingly, I said,

322
00:18:42,329 --> 00:18:44,164
"Well, it's the milk capital
of the world."

323
00:18:44,873 --> 00:18:46,667
They said, "Oh, they like milk!"

324
00:18:47,292 --> 00:18:49,303
"Da-eerie."

325
00:18:49,503 --> 00:18:54,141
No wonder they're kind of gray
and sickly-looking. Vitamin D deficiency.

326
00:18:54,341 --> 00:18:55,768
<i>Got milk?</i>

327
00:18:55,968 --> 00:19:01,732
The high school science club
designed a T-shirt and made $4,000.

328
00:19:01,932 --> 00:19:03,651
I can't even believe it.

329
00:19:03,851 --> 00:19:06,278
<i>Aluminum foil hats
to ward off alien mind probes.</i>

330
00:19:06,478 --> 00:19:07,571
<i>Nice look, guy.</i>

331
00:19:07,771 --> 00:19:09,823
People are having a good time.

332
00:19:10,023 --> 00:19:12,201
It's the most excitement
Stephenville's had in a long time,

333
00:19:12,401 --> 00:19:14,278
so it probably won't end here.

334
00:19:18,866 --> 00:19:21,126
One evening, my husband
and I happened to go to dinner,

335
00:19:21,326 --> 00:19:22,753
and it was packed.

336
00:19:22,953 --> 00:19:27,207
And all of a sudden, the TVs came on,
and there was... There they were.

337
00:19:29,126 --> 00:19:31,303
<i>They were dancing around,
and they were flickering.</i>

338
00:19:31,503 --> 00:19:34,974
<i>Tonight, strange sights
in the night skies over Texas</i>

339
00:19:35,174 --> 00:19:37,176
<i>fuel otherworldly questions.</i>

340
00:19:37,759 --> 00:19:41,939
When that came on, there was just a hush.
Everybody just was riveted.

341
00:19:42,139 --> 00:19:44,984
<i>Angelia Joiner,
staff writer for the Empire-Tribune,</i>

342
00:19:45,184 --> 00:19:46,694
<i>who has talked to several witnesses.</i>

343
00:19:46,894 --> 00:19:51,073
<i>Very similar stories from people
that have called in and emailed me.</i>

344
00:19:51,273 --> 00:19:55,452
<i>So I think there's been
a lot of consistency in the spottings.</i>

345
00:19:55,652 --> 00:19:59,123
Angelia did not treat this story
like it was a fun-and-games story.

346
00:19:59,323 --> 00:20:01,625
She... She took it serious
from the very beginning.

347
00:20:01,825 --> 00:20:05,337
After doing the first story,
I did get a little spooked.

348
00:20:05,537 --> 00:20:07,589
I thought, "Oh my gosh,
this is bigger than...

349
00:20:07,789 --> 00:20:10,751
than what I even dreamed it could be."

350
00:20:14,171 --> 00:20:16,306
It was nice
that people were calling me,

351
00:20:16,506 --> 00:20:18,308
going, "Hey, I saw the front page,

352
00:20:18,508 --> 00:20:22,104
and it was saying 'Dublin, '"
and it's kinda like, "Wow, that's great!"

353
00:20:22,304 --> 00:20:25,941
But then, at the same time, people...
There's some that just love to ridicule.

354
00:20:26,141 --> 00:20:28,694
They love to kinda knock somebody
off their horse.

355
00:20:28,894 --> 00:20:33,615
There were some, um, radio stations
out of Fort Worth came down and...

356
00:20:33,815 --> 00:20:35,826
and basically just to make fun.

357
00:20:36,026 --> 00:20:37,369
- You know?
<i>- They took my job.</i>

358
00:20:37,569 --> 00:20:40,414
<i>They took my wife.
But they're not getting my pickup truck.</i>

359
00:20:40,614 --> 00:20:44,835
There was people that showed up
just to try to discredit these folks.

360
00:20:45,035 --> 00:20:47,713
When one of those little green monsters
starts walking up here,

361
00:20:47,913 --> 00:20:48,922
then I'll believe it.

362
00:20:49,122 --> 00:20:52,259
And so, um, when these sightings
started taking place,

363
00:20:52,459 --> 00:20:55,963
we saw it, but we didn't really say
a whole lot about it.

364
00:21:04,179 --> 00:21:07,441
It was starting to get a little dark.
It was about this time of night.

365
00:21:07,641 --> 00:21:10,402
My friend Kent was telling us this story

366
00:21:10,602 --> 00:21:13,572
about something
that he saw a few days before.

367
00:21:13,772 --> 00:21:18,243
I looked up, and I'm saying,
"Ah, that's just not normal for me."

368
00:21:18,443 --> 00:21:22,456
He saw this, um... this huge, um...

369
00:21:22,656 --> 00:21:24,208
He called it a Dorito.

370
00:21:24,408 --> 00:21:28,120
Looked like a triangle,
or I-I said originally a Dorito.

371
00:21:28,912 --> 00:21:32,216
He, um, stands up,
and he's stretching his back,

372
00:21:32,416 --> 00:21:35,552
and all of a sudden,
he goes, "They're back."

373
00:21:35,752 --> 00:21:38,422
And I said, "Who's back?"

374
00:21:39,006 --> 00:21:40,590
And he just points.

375
00:21:41,174 --> 00:21:44,311
I see this big, triangular vessel.

376
00:21:44,511 --> 00:21:46,939
But what's amazing is there's no sound.

377
00:21:47,139 --> 00:21:48,857
There is no sound whatsoever.

378
00:21:49,057 --> 00:21:53,362
{an8}I couldn't process what I was seeing
because it was huge,

379
00:21:53,562 --> 00:21:55,272
{an8}and you just look and you think...

380
00:21:56,648 --> 00:21:57,866
{an8}"What is that thing?"

381
00:21:58,066 --> 00:22:00,527
And then, all of a sudden, it's gone.

382
00:22:01,528 --> 00:22:03,655
Almost like it just vanished.

383
00:22:04,865 --> 00:22:06,667
I was not scared,

384
00:22:06,867 --> 00:22:09,453
but it was almost where I'm thinking...

385
00:22:10,203 --> 00:22:11,171
beginning to doubt myself.

386
00:22:11,371 --> 00:22:12,673
"Did I even see anything?"

387
00:22:12,873 --> 00:22:14,875
Then it was, like...
The next day, it's like...

388
00:22:15,876 --> 00:22:17,210
"Don't tell anybody."

389
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:24,226
When you sit there and you say,
"Yeah, I just saw this... this vessel,"

390
00:22:24,426 --> 00:22:27,980
or, "I saw these lights,"
well, who do we tell about it?

391
00:22:28,180 --> 00:22:31,808
And if we did,
what kind of flak are we gonna take?

392
00:22:37,105 --> 00:22:41,410
What we don't understand,
we try to explain,

393
00:22:41,610 --> 00:22:43,662
but our culture is also very open

394
00:22:43,862 --> 00:22:48,575
to accepting things
we cannot see or understand.

395
00:22:49,743 --> 00:22:53,246
We do not rely on facts constantly,
like here in the US.

396
00:22:54,164 --> 00:22:58,585
The inexplicable does not necessarily mean
that it is not reality or fact.

397
00:23:01,755 --> 00:23:04,800
In 2008,
what I saw were lights in the sky.

398
00:23:05,717 --> 00:23:08,228
{an8}But the neat thing about it was
that when I saw those,

399
00:23:08,428 --> 00:23:10,939
{an8}I remembered they were exactly the same
as the first time I saw 'em.

400
00:23:11,139 --> 00:23:12,724
{an8}'Cause I saw them first as a teenager.

401
00:23:22,234 --> 00:23:23,735
We're originally from Mexico.

402
00:23:24,236 --> 00:23:26,663
And for Christmas break,
we were getting ready

403
00:23:26,863 --> 00:23:29,241
to travel to Michoacán,
in Mexico, with our family.

404
00:23:30,826 --> 00:23:34,421
My mother, the evening before,
was on the dairy farm.

405
00:23:34,621 --> 00:23:36,590
And she says,
"I was out there feeding the calves,

406
00:23:36,790 --> 00:23:40,260
and these lights were-were appearing
up in the sky, like bubbles."

407
00:23:40,460 --> 00:23:42,721
"You know, could it be evil spirits
or-or-or something?"

408
00:23:42,921 --> 00:23:45,474
Because we tend to be
a very superstitious culture.

409
00:23:45,674 --> 00:23:48,352
And so when she saw those,
she was very much startled.

410
00:23:48,552 --> 00:23:49,553
She was afraid.

411
00:23:51,054 --> 00:23:53,106
That next day, we were on our way
to travel to Mexico,

412
00:23:53,306 --> 00:23:56,360
we were in our vehicle,
already loaded up and-and headed out,

413
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,862
and these lights started coming up.

414
00:23:59,062 --> 00:24:02,532
And then my mom said,
"Those are the ones I saw, um, yesterday."

415
00:24:02,732 --> 00:24:06,361
And me and my sister and my other sibling
saw those at that time.

416
00:24:07,946 --> 00:24:09,873
It wasn't something that we could explain.

417
00:24:10,073 --> 00:24:12,709
All I know is that what I saw in 1989

418
00:24:12,909 --> 00:24:15,620
was the same thing that,
again, I saw in 2008.

419
00:24:19,416 --> 00:24:21,593
We were coming back from Fort Worth,
me and my husband,

420
00:24:21,793 --> 00:24:23,545
about this time in the evening.

421
00:24:24,212 --> 00:24:27,299
We could see the lights up in this area.

422
00:24:28,300 --> 00:24:31,395
It was like they would bubble in one spot,
then bubble in another spot.

423
00:24:31,595 --> 00:24:37,642
And it was too fast for any-any...
any airplane or helicopter to do.

424
00:24:39,144 --> 00:24:42,823
As we're looking up,
I'm hanging out the door with my camera

425
00:24:43,023 --> 00:24:45,659
trying to take pictures of it,

426
00:24:45,859 --> 00:24:50,363
but the camera, it just wasn't fast enough
to be... to be able to take those pictures.

427
00:24:51,031 --> 00:24:52,324
Then they were gone.

428
00:24:55,285 --> 00:24:59,089
I do believe that when people
come to our area, it's for a reason.

429
00:24:59,289 --> 00:25:02,250
If they're here,
why are they here?

430
00:25:03,210 --> 00:25:05,554
Today we're-we're gonna be
talking about <i>Don Quixote.</i>

431
00:25:05,754 --> 00:25:07,347
Who's familiar with <i>Don Quixote?</i>

432
00:25:07,547 --> 00:25:09,266
I love working with students.

433
00:25:09,466 --> 00:25:11,476
I've always told them,
"You have a mind of your own."

434
00:25:11,676 --> 00:25:14,563
You need to see what information A
and information B has.

435
00:25:14,763 --> 00:25:17,566
Not going against their parents
or going against, uh,

436
00:25:17,766 --> 00:25:19,109
any-any type of doctrine,

437
00:25:19,309 --> 00:25:21,144
but just to be informed.

438
00:25:22,812 --> 00:25:26,233
We was very driven
to find out what it was that we saw.

439
00:25:26,983 --> 00:25:28,535
The more we dug into it,

440
00:25:28,735 --> 00:25:31,404
I kept developing more questions
than answers.

441
00:25:32,656 --> 00:25:36,918
I don't have enough nerve
to call the NAS, the naval air station.

442
00:25:37,118 --> 00:25:38,754
Angelia, she did.

443
00:25:38,954 --> 00:25:41,623
She'd called down there
and talked to Maj. Carl Lewis.

444
00:25:42,832 --> 00:25:45,844
I called him to check out,

445
00:25:46,044 --> 00:25:48,513
"Were there F-16s in the area?"

446
00:25:48,713 --> 00:25:52,267
He said, "No, we did not have
any F-16s in the area."

447
00:25:52,467 --> 00:25:54,895
<i>The Air Force says
none of its planes were in the area</i>

448
00:25:55,095 --> 00:25:56,396
<i>at the time of the sightings.</i>

449
00:25:56,596 --> 00:25:58,315
Angelia told me that.

450
00:25:58,515 --> 00:26:00,650
And he'd come back
with all kinds of excuses

451
00:26:00,850 --> 00:26:02,486
what we thought we might have seen.

452
00:26:02,686 --> 00:26:06,731
One excuse was a reflection
off of a high-altitude jet airliner.

453
00:26:07,232 --> 00:26:08,700
She says, "What do you think about that?"

454
00:26:08,900 --> 00:26:11,570
And I said, "Is it a reflection
off of my shiny white ass?"

455
00:26:13,863 --> 00:26:15,999
I was really worried
about Steve Allen.

456
00:26:16,199 --> 00:26:17,918
You could tell he was just haggard.

457
00:26:18,118 --> 00:26:21,588
His wife told me
he was on the Internet constantly,

458
00:26:21,788 --> 00:26:23,715
looking for pictures,

459
00:26:23,915 --> 00:26:27,919
trying to find something
that looked like what he had seen.

460
00:26:30,422 --> 00:26:33,433
I told my wife that several of us
was gon' get in our airplanes

461
00:26:33,633 --> 00:26:34,559
and go look for it.

462
00:26:34,759 --> 00:26:36,770
And she, of course, didn't like that idea.

463
00:26:36,970 --> 00:26:40,023
But, you know,
it's like telling a-a kid to do something.

464
00:26:40,223 --> 00:26:41,850
We're gon' do what we want to.

465
00:26:47,439 --> 00:26:48,240
Our first thought was,

466
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,575
we hoped we would find
where it was based out of.

467
00:26:50,775 --> 00:26:52,027
It appeared out of nowhere.

468
00:26:54,779 --> 00:26:58,700
So we explored all possibilities.
We combed the whole area.

469
00:27:00,702 --> 00:27:02,412
Then on about the third night...

470
00:27:04,247 --> 00:27:05,799
...we was talking to each other
on the radio.

471
00:27:05,999 --> 00:27:07,551
I said, "Do you guys ever feel like

472
00:27:07,751 --> 00:27:09,461
you're looking for a needle
in a haystack?"

473
00:27:12,839 --> 00:27:15,934
What I saw happen in Steve
is the same thing I've seen happen

474
00:27:16,134 --> 00:27:17,060
in a lot of witnesses.

475
00:27:17,260 --> 00:27:19,471
You've got this feeling of control.

476
00:27:19,971 --> 00:27:24,067
And then, suddenly,
you see something close to you,

477
00:27:24,267 --> 00:27:29,156
and it does something
that is so... impossible

478
00:27:29,356 --> 00:27:32,325
that it just shakes the underpinnings

479
00:27:32,525 --> 00:27:35,662
of what they have
always thought the world was.

480
00:27:35,862 --> 00:27:38,081
<i>Ricky Sorrells was deer hunting
in these woods</i>

481
00:27:38,281 --> 00:27:42,461
<i>when he says the UFO stopped
and hovered just over his head.</i>

482
00:27:42,661 --> 00:27:45,464
And I did just like this,
and I could see it. And it...

483
00:27:45,664 --> 00:27:47,799
Ricky Sorrells has
a very interesting story.

484
00:27:47,999 --> 00:27:50,177
Ricky actually had a UFO sighting

485
00:27:50,377 --> 00:27:54,130
almost two weeks, roughly,
before the Stephenville incident.

486
00:27:59,803 --> 00:28:01,480
I met Ricky personally,

487
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,307
and he told me the story
of-of what happened.

488
00:28:05,517 --> 00:28:06,735
He was out deer hunting.

489
00:28:06,935 --> 00:28:09,654
All of a sudden, everything got dark,

490
00:28:09,854 --> 00:28:11,907
like clouds had come overhead.

491
00:28:12,107 --> 00:28:15,819
Well, he looked up,
and there was an object above him.

492
00:28:16,319 --> 00:28:19,331
He couldn't tell its size or its shape

493
00:28:19,531 --> 00:28:23,919
because it was so large
that it just covered everything above him.

494
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,923
He raised his rifle up
and looked at it through the scope,

495
00:28:28,123 --> 00:28:29,674
so he could get a better view of it.

496
00:28:29,874 --> 00:28:33,845
And, uh, he says, "I looked it over,
and there was no bolts, no rivets,

497
00:28:34,045 --> 00:28:35,722
and it just seemed seamless all over."

498
00:28:35,922 --> 00:28:37,340
And that's all he could see.

499
00:28:38,508 --> 00:28:40,852
And he says,
"I started to go ahead and shoot it,"

500
00:28:41,052 --> 00:28:44,064
but he got to thinking, "That wasn't
the smartest thing I'd ever done."

501
00:28:44,264 --> 00:28:47,526
<i>Sorrells didn't want to start
an interstellar war.</i>

502
00:28:47,726 --> 00:28:50,820
{an8}And when it took off, it took off
so fast, if I would have blinked,

503
00:28:51,020 --> 00:28:52,397
{an8}I would have thought it vanished.

504
00:28:52,897 --> 00:28:55,075
He said, "You know, the amazing thing

505
00:28:55,275 --> 00:28:58,870
is that this huge object
that took off at such a high speed,

506
00:28:59,070 --> 00:29:01,164
it should have just sucked me
right along with it."

507
00:29:01,364 --> 00:29:04,876
And he said, "There was nothing.
No sound, no wind. Nothing."

508
00:29:05,076 --> 00:29:09,539
Somehow that object
didn't interact with the atmosphere.

509
00:29:14,669 --> 00:29:17,722
There was one morning, uh,
Ricky came to my house,

510
00:29:17,922 --> 00:29:19,424
and Ricky's in tears.

511
00:29:20,133 --> 00:29:22,143
I asked him, "Man, what's going on?"

512
00:29:22,343 --> 00:29:24,703
He said, "Lee Roy,
people are harassing me at my own house."

513
00:29:27,056 --> 00:29:29,359
"Who's harassing you?"
He said, "I don't know."

514
00:29:29,559 --> 00:29:32,479
He said, "They tell me
that they, uh, work for the government."

515
00:29:34,814 --> 00:29:37,150
Ricky was definitely
being intimidated.

516
00:29:45,533 --> 00:29:48,870
He found a bullet.
It was definitely military-grade.

517
00:29:49,704 --> 00:29:51,965
He thinks they may have
left that on purpose

518
00:29:52,165 --> 00:29:54,593
to persuade him
not to be speaking about it.

519
00:29:54,793 --> 00:29:57,637
The next thing I know,
um, he is calling me.

520
00:29:57,837 --> 00:30:00,882
He said, "Something's going on.
Somebody's bothering me."

521
00:30:02,133 --> 00:30:05,678
"I'm having all these helicopters
flying over my place."

522
00:30:06,554 --> 00:30:09,891
"They are running my cattle to death."

523
00:30:10,934 --> 00:30:14,613
And he came to me
out of concern for my safety.

524
00:30:14,813 --> 00:30:18,074
{an8}Angelia,
assuming that Ricky is not nuts,

525
00:30:18,274 --> 00:30:20,235
{an8}uh, what do you make of this?

526
00:30:21,236 --> 00:30:26,207
{an8}Well, I feel that perhaps
Ricky might have been singled out,

527
00:30:26,407 --> 00:30:31,171
simply because he was the one
that had a daytime sighting.

528
00:30:31,371 --> 00:30:34,424
He had more detail than anyone else,

529
00:30:34,624 --> 00:30:38,002
and I wondered if that might be
why he was singled out.

530
00:30:38,878 --> 00:30:39,878
And, suddenly...

531
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:43,350
Ricky stops talking to everybody.

532
00:30:43,550 --> 00:30:48,179
I think Ricky saw a lot more
than what the rest of us saw.

533
00:30:48,930 --> 00:30:53,351
Ricky has said he saw some sort
of something inside the aircraft,

534
00:30:54,018 --> 00:30:58,064
and it resembled some sort of insect
or maybe even a praying mantis.

535
00:31:01,025 --> 00:31:06,373
I-I-I think that Ricky was
possibly approached by someone

536
00:31:06,573 --> 00:31:09,993
and offered a monetary agreement.

537
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:12,537
They wanted him quiet.

538
00:31:13,746 --> 00:31:16,716
A military colonel called me,
one afternoon at my house,

539
00:31:16,916 --> 00:31:19,544
and talked to me
about an hour and 45 minutes.

540
00:31:20,169 --> 00:31:24,140
Says, "We've had a lot of discussion
about you and what to do with you."

541
00:31:24,340 --> 00:31:26,142
"You're kind of a high-profile guy."

542
00:31:26,342 --> 00:31:29,637
"If you just happened to come up missing,
it'd kinda look suspicious."

543
00:31:32,265 --> 00:31:35,902
{an8}<i>They're going against the wind.
The wind's 120 knots west.</i>

544
00:31:36,102 --> 00:31:37,353
{an8}<i>Look at that, dude!</i>

545
00:31:38,980 --> 00:31:42,742
I found myself
watching the footage over and over again,

546
00:31:42,942 --> 00:31:44,903
almost obsessively.

547
00:31:46,529 --> 00:31:47,580
I had no awareness

548
00:31:47,780 --> 00:31:52,327
of what the upper chain of command
was doing with this information.

549
00:31:53,828 --> 00:31:57,757
In 2017, I transferred
to the Office of Naval Intelligence.

550
00:31:57,957 --> 00:32:00,635
{an8}I was gonna be an analyst there.

551
00:32:00,835 --> 00:32:06,758
{an8}And, um... shortly
after I arrived, I, uh...

552
00:32:07,508 --> 00:32:12,355
I started to have
these follow-on experiences

553
00:32:12,555 --> 00:32:13,806
with the phenomenon.

554
00:32:15,016 --> 00:32:19,812
That was, like, the beginning of seeing
non-human entities in my room at night.

555
00:32:26,736 --> 00:32:29,789
I would wake up several times a week,

556
00:32:29,989 --> 00:32:35,378
and I would feel my body
kind of sliding across the bed.

557
00:32:35,578 --> 00:32:37,705
And I knew that they were taking me.

558
00:32:38,748 --> 00:32:41,417
I woke up 'cause I felt...

559
00:32:42,543 --> 00:32:45,505
a hand grab my arm right here.

560
00:32:46,798 --> 00:32:51,811
So I went to try and raise my hands
to my face to wipe the sleep away,

561
00:32:52,011 --> 00:32:55,306
and, uh, I realized I couldn't move.

562
00:32:56,099 --> 00:33:01,521
And I could just see this outline
of a shadowy figure with...

563
00:33:02,647 --> 00:33:07,902
you know, a torso, two arms,
and a head, standing over me.

564
00:33:10,655 --> 00:33:12,499
When I was in the Navy
and I saw this footage,

565
00:33:12,699 --> 00:33:15,627
I knew that there was something out there.

566
00:33:15,827 --> 00:33:18,505
Right? I knew there was
something non-human out there.

567
00:33:18,705 --> 00:33:21,049
So I knew when they started
showing up in my room

568
00:33:21,249 --> 00:33:24,427
that... a-all of this was real.

569
00:33:24,627 --> 00:33:28,589
I-I-I had the luxury of knowing
that I wasn't going crazy.

570
00:33:29,507 --> 00:33:31,801
Right? I knew what it was.

571
00:33:36,264 --> 00:33:38,016
{an8}<i>Whoa! Got it!</i>

572
00:33:39,183 --> 00:33:40,735
{an8}<i>- Woo-hoo!
- Roger.</i>

573
00:33:40,935 --> 00:33:44,147
{an8}There's all kinds
of sensor evidence, radar evidence.

574
00:33:45,231 --> 00:33:47,075
{an8}I think that there's enough footage

575
00:33:47,275 --> 00:33:51,454
that if they just released all of it
and said, "Hey, this is what we have,"

576
00:33:51,654 --> 00:33:53,581
they don't even have to
give an explanation.

577
00:33:53,781 --> 00:33:56,951
They can just say,
"We don't know. This is what we got."

578
00:33:57,577 --> 00:34:01,122
Um, there would be no... no doubt

579
00:34:01,873 --> 00:34:04,259
as to whether or not
the phenomenon is real.

580
00:34:04,459 --> 00:34:06,085
Everyone would know it.

581
00:34:07,211 --> 00:34:08,721
{an8}The US military is now saying

582
00:34:08,921 --> 00:34:11,808
{an8}it was fighter jets,
not UFOs, that folks were seeing

583
00:34:12,008 --> 00:34:13,852
{an8}in the Stephenville area
earlier this month.

584
00:34:14,052 --> 00:34:18,940
<i>The military now says
it was training in the area after all.</i>

585
00:34:19,140 --> 00:34:22,485
<i>Ten F-16s over
the Brownwood military operating area.</i>

586
00:34:22,685 --> 00:34:25,905
<i>The military spokesman blames
an internal communications error</i>

587
00:34:26,105 --> 00:34:28,107
<i>for giving out false information.</i>

588
00:34:31,736 --> 00:34:33,746
There was no more new sightings.

589
00:34:33,946 --> 00:34:36,457
We were clearly not gonna get an answer
from the government or...

590
00:34:36,657 --> 00:34:37,709
on what this could have been.

591
00:34:37,909 --> 00:34:41,004
So unless we have something new
and significant to report about it,

592
00:34:41,204 --> 00:34:42,830
we need to get on to other things.

593
00:34:44,916 --> 00:34:46,593
It was a hard thing for Angelia.

594
00:34:46,793 --> 00:34:48,595
She really had a hard time
letting go of it

595
00:34:48,795 --> 00:34:50,213
and breaking away from it.

596
00:34:51,047 --> 00:34:53,349
I just couldn't abandon
those witnesses.

597
00:34:53,549 --> 00:34:58,387
They were thrust into the limelight
just like I was.

598
00:34:58,888 --> 00:35:01,316
Plus, it was shaking them
to their very core

599
00:35:01,516 --> 00:35:02,892
about what they had seen.

600
00:35:04,727 --> 00:35:07,030
I had given her an assignment,
and I had this feeling

601
00:35:07,230 --> 00:35:09,782
that she wasn't doing it that day,
and she left.

602
00:35:09,982 --> 00:35:12,452
And I got on her computer
and discovered some emails

603
00:35:12,652 --> 00:35:15,163
that she had sent
saying that the newspaper

604
00:35:15,363 --> 00:35:18,750
and the management here,
or me, um, specifically,

605
00:35:18,950 --> 00:35:21,711
I'd gotten pressure to shut it down
from the government and the city,

606
00:35:21,911 --> 00:35:23,504
and the city officials.

607
00:35:23,704 --> 00:35:27,375
And I was pretty upset about that,
'cause none of that was true.

608
00:35:28,835 --> 00:35:30,261
Very strange story with Angelia.

609
00:35:30,461 --> 00:35:33,422
She came into work one morning,
and her computer was gone.

610
00:35:34,090 --> 00:35:37,393
And she says, "Hey, what happened
to my computer and my stuff?"

611
00:35:37,593 --> 00:35:39,720
And they told her
she didn't work there anymore.

612
00:35:40,763 --> 00:35:43,149
Was it a termination? Yes.
But she didn't want to be there.

613
00:35:43,349 --> 00:35:44,559
She wanted to continue this.

614
00:35:45,643 --> 00:35:48,146
And that was a story
that I was happy to move on from.

615
00:35:50,106 --> 00:35:52,408
If you look at the UFO phenomenon, for...

616
00:35:52,608 --> 00:35:56,871
It's gone on for 75 years
in the modern era.

617
00:35:57,071 --> 00:36:02,660
And yet, today, we still don't know
much more than we knew 75 years ago.

618
00:36:04,787 --> 00:36:07,757
That's troubling for many
in the field of science

619
00:36:07,957 --> 00:36:12,679
because there's no crystal clear,
solid evidence.

620
00:36:12,879 --> 00:36:15,723
And-And that's the mystery
of this phenomenon,

621
00:36:15,923 --> 00:36:18,759
is like, "Where is the evidence?"

622
00:36:34,609 --> 00:36:36,244
Three o'clock in the morning,

623
00:36:36,444 --> 00:36:39,739
I'd been out working
a moonlighting job in Stephenville.

624
00:36:40,990 --> 00:36:43,201
There's an alarm call at this business.

625
00:36:44,785 --> 00:36:46,671
I went ahead
and advised the sheriff's department

626
00:36:46,871 --> 00:36:49,215
that I was close by
and would take the call.

627
00:36:49,415 --> 00:36:51,092
And when I get out of the car,

628
00:36:51,292 --> 00:36:56,672
I look and I see a pulsating orb
up in the sky.

629
00:36:57,757 --> 00:36:59,684
Got my dashcam and positioned it,

630
00:36:59,884 --> 00:37:02,637
trying to videotape this object.

631
00:37:03,763 --> 00:37:05,189
I took the video home.

632
00:37:05,389 --> 00:37:09,685
Uh, back then, it was VHS,
and put it in my player at home.

633
00:37:19,237 --> 00:37:20,404
It was not a clear video.

634
00:37:20,988 --> 00:37:24,408
It was like something
was interfering the, uh, quality.

635
00:37:26,452 --> 00:37:29,413
I said, "Man, why is this tape messing up,
right now of all times?"

636
00:37:30,748 --> 00:37:34,302
I had never had a problem
before that with any video.

637
00:37:34,502 --> 00:37:37,889
After that, I used that camera
at least another year and a half,

638
00:37:38,089 --> 00:37:39,474
before I went digital.

639
00:37:39,674 --> 00:37:41,217
Never had a problem like that.

640
00:37:42,802 --> 00:37:44,520
Whatever this thing was,

641
00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:49,183
whoever was responsible for it
did not want clear footage of it.

642
00:37:53,604 --> 00:37:58,284
I wanted to find corroboration
for the object seen by Lee Roy and Steve,

643
00:37:58,484 --> 00:38:02,905
and all the other witnesses,
in Stephenville on January 8th, 2008.

644
00:38:04,407 --> 00:38:06,125
I had the witness statements.

645
00:38:06,325 --> 00:38:09,045
I knew the when and the where

646
00:38:09,245 --> 00:38:11,089
and the direction they were looking.

647
00:38:11,289 --> 00:38:16,260
At the MUFON event,
I met a guy from Colorado, Glen Schulze,

648
00:38:16,460 --> 00:38:20,047
and Glen was a former army radar expert.

649
00:38:21,215 --> 00:38:26,679
Anything that flies in the sky is caught
with what's called primary radar data.

650
00:38:28,889 --> 00:38:33,736
So I wanted radar data to support
what the witnesses had told me.

651
00:38:33,936 --> 00:38:37,824
{an8}The FAA won't volunteer those returns
because they say nothing happened.

652
00:38:38,024 --> 00:38:41,160
{an8}So you have to send
a Freedom of Information Act request in

653
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,321
and force them to release the data.

654
00:38:43,904 --> 00:38:46,916
I sent FOIAs
to every police department,

655
00:38:47,116 --> 00:38:48,876
to every military base.

656
00:38:49,076 --> 00:38:52,630
And the one FOIA that panned out the best
was the FOIA to the FAA,

657
00:38:52,830 --> 00:38:55,007
which provided me with radar data

658
00:38:55,207 --> 00:38:59,253
from five different radar antennae
across the state of Texas.

659
00:38:59,795 --> 00:39:04,592
Glen Schulze and I went four months
to go through the radar data.

660
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:10,523
Before I went looking for any unknowns,
first thing I did was track the F-16s.

661
00:39:10,723 --> 00:39:13,401
Two F-16s came in hot pursuit.

662
00:39:13,601 --> 00:39:17,113
They were flying
in the same direction as these lights.

663
00:39:17,313 --> 00:39:21,284
These are the two that flew down
to Comanche, Dublin, Stephenville.

664
00:39:21,484 --> 00:39:23,786
So once I identified where the F-16s were,

665
00:39:23,986 --> 00:39:28,532
I went to start looking for objects
that did not have transponders.

666
00:39:29,158 --> 00:39:34,747
So I wanted to see everything
that was not supposed to be in the sky.

667
00:39:35,790 --> 00:39:37,049
I get to where Steve is.

668
00:39:37,249 --> 00:39:40,553
So I'm looking there,
and do I see any unknowns

669
00:39:40,753 --> 00:39:43,047
that are popping up
that match what he described?

670
00:39:45,674 --> 00:39:47,935
What I find is radar data

671
00:39:48,135 --> 00:39:53,641
that confirms what Steve Allen
and Lee Roy Gaitan have told me.

672
00:39:54,266 --> 00:39:56,527
I came out here
to have a campfire,

673
00:39:56,727 --> 00:39:59,739
and all of a sudden,
I see some high-intensity lights,

674
00:39:59,939 --> 00:40:01,908
headed at a high velocity of speed.

675
00:40:02,108 --> 00:40:04,035
Steve is located here.

676
00:40:04,235 --> 00:40:09,790
There are two radar points that showed
an object moving without a transponder.

677
00:40:09,990 --> 00:40:13,961
When we first saw the ship,
it was just a few minutes after 6:00.

678
00:40:14,161 --> 00:40:17,373
The two data points
match the time

679
00:40:18,082 --> 00:40:20,709
and the geographical location.

680
00:40:21,544 --> 00:40:25,181
Does its flame-job over Stephenville,
just simply disappears.

681
00:40:25,381 --> 00:40:27,767
This is outside
of military operating area,

682
00:40:27,967 --> 00:40:29,435
so it should have a transponder

683
00:40:29,635 --> 00:40:32,104
if it is military aircraft,
but it doesn't.

684
00:40:32,304 --> 00:40:34,106
In the case of Lee Roy,

685
00:40:34,306 --> 00:40:37,860
I had about five data points on the radar,

686
00:40:38,060 --> 00:40:41,188
indicating there is this object
south of his home.

687
00:40:42,064 --> 00:40:43,574
I came outside.

688
00:40:43,774 --> 00:40:48,195
Something caught my attention
off-off to the, uh, southwest sky.

689
00:40:48,696 --> 00:40:53,367
All of a sudden, these things
just shoot off at a blazing speed.

690
00:40:53,951 --> 00:40:56,871
And they travel, what I say, northeast.

691
00:40:57,872 --> 00:40:59,882
When he says
it moves to the northeast,

692
00:41:00,082 --> 00:41:03,010
I get a data point ten seconds later

693
00:41:03,210 --> 00:41:07,548
that's to the northeast
and is moving at an extreme rate of speed.

694
00:41:08,632 --> 00:41:12,353
It's not very often
that you get radar data

695
00:41:12,553 --> 00:41:15,856
that just corroborates
exactly what a witness said

696
00:41:16,056 --> 00:41:18,526
in terms of geographic location and time.

697
00:41:18,726 --> 00:41:22,947
It showed it in black and white
that there was something flying out there.

698
00:41:23,147 --> 00:41:26,325
And that the speeds
that these things were traveling

699
00:41:26,525 --> 00:41:29,662
are, like, speeds
that we cannot do here on Earth.

700
00:41:29,862 --> 00:41:32,039
These stories check out
with the radar data.

701
00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:35,334
So there's absolutely no doubt
that there's an object in the sky

702
00:41:35,534 --> 00:41:39,964
and that the object that's in the sky
does not have a transponder code.

703
00:41:40,164 --> 00:41:43,301
That tells you that you're...
you're dealing with something real,

704
00:41:43,501 --> 00:41:44,502
whatever it is.

705
00:41:48,422 --> 00:41:50,266
<i>When you need a boost, try milk.</i>

706
00:41:50,466 --> 00:41:51,934
<i>Okay!</i>

707
00:41:52,134 --> 00:41:54,312
<i>With all the attention
of the UFO sightings,</i>

708
00:41:54,512 --> 00:41:57,690
<i>Stephenville will no longer be alien
to the rest of the world.</i>

709
00:41:57,890 --> 00:41:59,525
<i>Milk Duds!</i>

710
00:41:59,725 --> 00:42:01,569
<i>♪ Milk is a natural ♪</i>

711
00:42:01,769 --> 00:42:05,031
<i>Hundreds of UFO sightings
are reported to authorities...</i>

712
00:42:05,231 --> 00:42:08,200
<i>If you're interested in UFOs,
you might wanna come on out,</i>

713
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:09,610
<i>if you dare.</i>

714
00:42:15,241 --> 00:42:18,160
Is any of this stuff real?
I don't know. I mean...

715
00:42:19,119 --> 00:42:22,122
I think UFOs are just as real as,

716
00:42:22,873 --> 00:42:25,584
you know, the-the lights in this room or...

717
00:42:26,252 --> 00:42:28,637
or the cameras that are in front of me.

718
00:42:28,837 --> 00:42:30,130
I think that, uh...

719
00:42:31,257 --> 00:42:35,311
I think they are very real.
But I think, what is your idea of reality?

720
00:42:35,511 --> 00:42:36,720
That's the question.

721
00:42:38,556 --> 00:42:41,776
You see that the DOD and NASA, even,

722
00:42:41,976 --> 00:42:44,070
they're all hiring physicists

723
00:42:44,270 --> 00:42:47,731
to work on this UFO issue.

724
00:42:48,566 --> 00:42:52,111
And that's not
where the truth of this lies.

725
00:42:52,903 --> 00:42:56,665
This lies more
within the realm of the humanities,

726
00:42:56,865 --> 00:43:01,662
within the realm of psychology,
uh, philosophy,

727
00:43:02,413 --> 00:43:03,581
religious studies.

728
00:43:04,415 --> 00:43:07,051
Um, that's where you're gonna find
the truth of this.

729
00:43:07,251 --> 00:43:11,505
No physicist... is gonna be able
to tell you what this is.

730
00:43:13,007 --> 00:43:19,471
Because the physicist maybe can tell you
how physical matter might behave,

731
00:43:20,055 --> 00:43:23,150
but the humanities will tell you why.

732
00:43:23,350 --> 00:43:27,104
It's not a...
It's not a Department of Defense issue.

733
00:43:28,397 --> 00:43:30,941
It's a... It's a human issue is what it is.

734
00:43:34,737 --> 00:43:38,907
And that's why
I could not justify being quiet.

735
00:43:44,622 --> 00:43:46,248
I've got eight children.

736
00:43:48,250 --> 00:43:52,096
We homeschool our kids,
and we've really seen fruit from that.

737
00:43:52,296 --> 00:43:53,431
All right, ready? Up!

738
00:43:53,631 --> 00:43:54,723
Wuh-uh!

739
00:43:54,923 --> 00:43:56,225
Okay, which one first?

740
00:43:56,425 --> 00:43:58,894
Every day starts out
with some type of Bible lesson.

741
00:43:59,094 --> 00:44:00,563
- Ezekiel was a prophet.
- Mm-hmm.

742
00:44:00,763 --> 00:44:03,691
- He was in the Old Testament.
- In the Old Testament.

743
00:44:03,891 --> 00:44:05,234
So check this out.

744
00:44:05,434 --> 00:44:09,488
"I looked, and behold,
a whirlwind was coming out of the North."

745
00:44:09,688 --> 00:44:14,326
"A great cloud
with raging fire engulfing itself,

746
00:44:14,526 --> 00:44:16,162
and brightness was all around it."

747
00:44:16,362 --> 00:44:20,240
"And radiating out of it,
the color of amber,

748
00:44:21,116 --> 00:44:22,877
out of the midst of the fire."

749
00:44:23,077 --> 00:44:25,629
What was it that Ezekiel was seeing?

750
00:44:25,829 --> 00:44:28,499
Not the message part.
I get the message part.

751
00:44:29,208 --> 00:44:30,593
I wanna know what he saw.

752
00:44:30,793 --> 00:44:32,419
"Behold a <i>wheel...</i>

753
00:44:34,046 --> 00:44:35,506
suddenly came to the earth."

754
00:44:36,590 --> 00:44:39,477
"And the rims were full of..."

755
00:44:39,677 --> 00:44:41,103
Translate this for me.

756
00:44:41,303 --> 00:44:44,899
"...eyes all the way around."

757
00:44:45,099 --> 00:44:46,692
Eyes or lights.

758
00:44:46,892 --> 00:44:48,235
Lights or...

759
00:44:48,435 --> 00:44:51,405
- Anything, really.
- Windows or... Right?

760
00:44:51,605 --> 00:44:55,526
{an8}To me, I think that talking about UFOs
with my kids, even the littlest ones,

761
00:44:56,110 --> 00:44:58,996
{an8}is making Scripture
a lot more real for them

762
00:44:59,196 --> 00:45:00,623
than just a bunch of stories.

763
00:45:00,823 --> 00:45:04,251
This was Switzerland,
and some guy just got this on video.

764
00:45:04,451 --> 00:45:06,962
It's a UFO.
What does that look like, right there?

765
00:45:07,162 --> 00:45:10,216
- It's a wheel within a wheel.
- And that was two days ago.

766
00:45:10,416 --> 00:45:12,259
The Christian populace

767
00:45:12,459 --> 00:45:15,095
does not wanna believe
that any of this is real,

768
00:45:15,295 --> 00:45:18,224
because if it does,
it changes all of their reality.

769
00:45:18,424 --> 00:45:20,509
You know, then, is the Bible just for us?

770
00:45:21,677 --> 00:45:23,470
Or... Or is it for <i>them</i> too?

771
00:45:27,933 --> 00:45:30,110
That's...
A million-dollar question is,

772
00:45:30,310 --> 00:45:34,690
"Where does life and other planets
and religion fit together?"

773
00:45:36,942 --> 00:45:38,277
If somebody were to ask me,

774
00:45:39,278 --> 00:45:41,196
"Did God make other...

775
00:45:43,574 --> 00:45:45,451
creatures?", I'd say yes.

776
00:45:46,869 --> 00:45:49,004
When Kent was telling us this story,

777
00:45:49,204 --> 00:45:53,425
I was the typical jerk
giving him a hard time, saying,

778
00:45:53,625 --> 00:45:57,004
"Here's a guy
that just saw a flying Dorito."

779
00:45:58,297 --> 00:46:01,308
And when we all looked up
and saw this thing,

780
00:46:01,508 --> 00:46:03,811
all of a sudden, it-it changed us in a way

781
00:46:04,011 --> 00:46:07,639
that we look at both sides
of the story more.

782
00:46:08,599 --> 00:46:12,361
Now when I hear people tell stories
of things they see,

783
00:46:12,561 --> 00:46:14,613
I am not a doubting Thomas.

784
00:46:14,813 --> 00:46:17,575
I'm thinking, you know,
"They saw something."

785
00:46:17,775 --> 00:46:20,277
"I know they did
or why would they be saying this?"

786
00:46:21,445 --> 00:46:24,748
Of course, psychology today
would tell you that,

787
00:46:24,948 --> 00:46:26,917
hey, if you're experiencing these things,

788
00:46:27,117 --> 00:46:29,328
you're seeing things
in your room at night,

789
00:46:29,912 --> 00:46:31,663
that you're schizophrenic.

790
00:46:32,372 --> 00:46:37,044
Or you have some kind
of other severe mental illness.

791
00:46:38,045 --> 00:46:40,848
And, to me, that's not...
That's not correct.

792
00:46:41,048 --> 00:46:42,216
That's not right.

793
00:46:43,300 --> 00:46:46,645
When I made the decision
to talk about this, to leave the Navy,

794
00:46:46,845 --> 00:46:49,807
I was four years away from retirement,

795
00:46:50,307 --> 00:46:53,193
which would have meant,
you know, a pension,

796
00:46:53,393 --> 00:46:55,863
health insurance for the rest of my life.

797
00:46:56,063 --> 00:46:59,158
You know? And I...
I left that all on the table.

798
00:46:59,358 --> 00:47:00,943
And I walked away from it

799
00:47:01,819 --> 00:47:04,330
because this isn't just about me, right?

800
00:47:04,530 --> 00:47:07,783
It's not about me at all.
It's about all of us.

801
00:47:10,494 --> 00:47:12,412
It's about everybody.

802
00:47:16,625 --> 00:47:18,677
<i>Don Quixote</i> is
one of my favorite novels.

803
00:47:18,877 --> 00:47:21,472
And, in it, Don Quixote is a madman.

804
00:47:21,672 --> 00:47:24,558
And everything that he sees,
he sees in a different light.

805
00:47:24,758 --> 00:47:26,760
Don Quixote sees these windmills,

806
00:47:27,386 --> 00:47:29,647
but in his mind, they're not, uh...

807
00:47:29,847 --> 00:47:31,398
They're not windmills. They're giants.

808
00:47:31,598 --> 00:47:33,025
We know that we're not mad.

809
00:47:33,225 --> 00:47:35,361
We know that there is
something credible to this

810
00:47:35,561 --> 00:47:39,314
because too many people saw
these, uh, lights in the sky.

811
00:47:39,982 --> 00:47:42,284
And so, um... We're-We're not...

812
00:47:42,484 --> 00:47:45,153
We're not a Don Quixote.
There's-There's more to this.

813
00:47:46,947 --> 00:47:49,291
You can argue,
"Well, it was some secret

814
00:47:49,491 --> 00:47:51,919
US black project, right?"

815
00:47:52,119 --> 00:47:55,631
But our technologies
don't just suddenly leap

816
00:47:55,831 --> 00:47:59,218
across 100 years of-of technology.

817
00:47:59,418 --> 00:48:01,837
Th-They're gradually created.

818
00:48:04,423 --> 00:48:09,261
In this case, I think whatever people saw
was intelligently controlled.

819
00:48:10,012 --> 00:48:13,524
And it was not manufactured
by the United States

820
00:48:13,724 --> 00:48:15,350
or any other nation, for that matter.

821
00:48:19,646 --> 00:48:20,823
So, about nine months later,

822
00:48:21,023 --> 00:48:24,651
I was driving my daughter
to gymnastics in Dublin,

823
00:48:25,277 --> 00:48:27,821
and I saw... some lights.

824
00:48:30,782 --> 00:48:32,167
I pulled over to the side of the road,

825
00:48:32,367 --> 00:48:34,712
and I just stopped
and looked out my front window.

826
00:48:34,912 --> 00:48:38,382
And they kinda were blinking
or kinda coming in and out of focus.

827
00:48:38,582 --> 00:48:41,176
And then they kinda
came together, cohesively,

828
00:48:41,376 --> 00:48:43,378
and... and just sort of disappeared.

829
00:48:44,421 --> 00:48:46,890
I just was so shaken and so shocked.
I thought, "My gosh."

830
00:48:47,090 --> 00:48:49,593
"I'm seeing what everybody's been
talking about all this time."

831
00:48:53,513 --> 00:48:56,692
It felt like the universe was sort of
playing a trick on me, like...

832
00:48:56,892 --> 00:49:00,821
I balked at this story so hard
in the beginning and for so long.

833
00:49:01,021 --> 00:49:05,609
And then, you know, months later,
it was sort of like, you know, here it is.

834
00:49:10,697 --> 00:49:13,876
I can't believe
all of the wonderful people I've met.

835
00:49:14,076 --> 00:49:16,754
And that's the good of UFO reporting.

836
00:49:16,954 --> 00:49:18,464
I've loved every minute of it,

837
00:49:18,664 --> 00:49:21,675
and I hope that I'm gonna be doing this
for a long time.

838
00:49:21,875 --> 00:49:23,627
Thank you.

839
00:49:31,343 --> 00:49:34,229
If I could talk to Angelia again,
I would tell her how brave she was

840
00:49:34,429 --> 00:49:38,066
for understanding
that there was a story there to be told.

841
00:49:38,266 --> 00:49:42,362
And I certainly wish that, uh,
we had parted ways differently if...

842
00:49:42,562 --> 00:49:44,815
My-My biggest regret of all is that.

843
00:49:52,906 --> 00:49:54,166
Our business suffered

844
00:49:54,366 --> 00:49:59,046
because I was chasing
the unidentified object that we saw.

845
00:49:59,246 --> 00:50:03,759
So it put an undue strain
on our relationship and her as well.

846
00:50:03,959 --> 00:50:07,137
And after 17 years
of being together and married,

847
00:50:07,337 --> 00:50:09,131
we ended up getting a divorce.

848
00:50:10,090 --> 00:50:13,760
My relationship suffered.
My company suffered. I suffered.

849
00:50:14,386 --> 00:50:17,022
I still consider it a blessing
that I did see it,

850
00:50:17,222 --> 00:50:19,516
and it's forever in my mind.

851
00:50:20,350 --> 00:50:23,311
I'm still on my quest, still to this day.

852
00:50:23,854 --> 00:50:25,605
I will find out what happened.

853
00:50:26,815 --> 00:50:29,985
This is a great big open secret.

854
00:50:31,403 --> 00:50:34,906
Nothing I am saying is anything new.

855
00:50:35,532 --> 00:50:39,453
It's just a matter of,
are you gonna believe it or not?

856
00:51:14,738 --> 00:51:16,999
