It made no | | sound. It flew off in a southerly direction, stopped, zigzagged, | | stoped again, then flew away toward the southwest. The duration of | | the sighting was nine minutes. (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue | | 155). | | | | 1953 - In Ciudad Valles, Mexico at six o'clock in the evening Sr. S. | | Villanueva, age 37, had the engine of the vehicle he was driving | | fail. Two four-foot-tall beings approached, and he next saw a domed | | disc, 40 feet, making a humming sound. The beings entered the craft, | | and the UFO ascended vertically at high speed. The landing traces | | included crushed bushes and broken sticks in a circular area 40-45 | | feet wide. (Sources: Gordon Creighton, The Humanoids: FSR Special | | Edition No. 1, p. 32; P. M. H. Edwards, FSR, January-February 1970, | | p. 11; Ted Phillips, Physical Traces Associated with UFO Sightings, | | case 100). | | | | 1958 - At 7:05 p.m. in Warren, Michigan Mr. A. D. Chisholm observed | | an extremely bright UFO shaped first like a bell and then like a | | saucer. When maneuvering it seemed shaped like a fried egg. It gave | | the impression of a huge size at extreme range. It was much brighter | | than Venus, at 70 degrees elevation. It hovered for five minutes, | | then flipped over and sped away to the west-southwest. The sighting | | lasted 6-10 minutes.

The V | | formation of nocturnal lights, or a boomerang-shaped object with | | running lights, passed behind some trees flying at a low altitude. | | (Sources: Richard Hall, The UFO Evidence (Volume I), p. 139; Larry | | Hatch, U computer database, case 6096). | | | | 1962 - On this evening two little men, three feet tall, were seen | | digging a hole near Sr. Mafra Da Silva's house in Duas Pontes, Minas | | Gerais State, Brazil. When he approached them they ran into the | | bushes. A few moments later a hat-shaped UFO surrounded by a red glow | | took off at high speed. (Source: Coral E. Lorenzen, Flying Saucers: | | The Startling Evidence of the Invasion from Outer Space, p. 231). | | | | 1966 - Late in the afternoon of this day two men named Pereira and | | Viana, alleged UFO contactees, were found dead with welders masks and | | strange papers on them in Niteroi Morro do Vintem, Rio de Janeiro, | | Brazil. Plants in their vicinity were burnt. A disc shaped UFO had | | been seen earlier. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Confrontations: A | | Scientist's Search for Alien Contact, p. 4). | | | | 1971 - John Hodges and Peter Rodriguez, both in their late twenties, | | had just gotten into John's car at two a.m. when they saw in the | | headlights things that looked like "brains" on the road about six | | feet away. Of a bluish color, a localized mist surrounded them. One | | was the size of a human torso, and had something red on it; the other | | was "the size of an overgrown softball." Frightened, the young men | | took off for home. Under hypnosis five years later, John Hodges | | recalled that the larger brain had spoken to them telepathically, | | saying, "Take the time to understand yourselves, the times draws near | | when you shall need to. You shall not remember this incident until we | | meet again." | | | | He also recalled that when he had arrived home and was still sitting | | in his car, he had a "dream" or vision of being in a large room with | | the brain. There were control consoles all along the wall, and there | | were several 7-foot-tall Grey skinned, bald humanoids with 6 webbed | | fingers and toes and thin lipped mouths. On a TV-like screen were | | pinpoint of lights, which the brain told him were places on Earth | | where there was "too much power." He was also shown 3-D pictures of | | atomic explosions, and of a planet destroyed by "too much power." | | After feeling a "buzzing" sensation he found himself back in his car. | | He thinks the experience was a "holographic projection," because he | | noticed that behind him all was black.

Bullard, UFO Abductions: The Measure of | | a Mystery, case 138). | | | | 1973 - A man driving near Route 30 in Kingston, Pennsylvania reported | | that his vehicle almost struck a huge gorilla like animal, with | | pointed ears and red glowing eyes. The creature ran away screaming | | like a man in pain. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact | | Database 1973, case # 1871, citing Paul G. Johnson & Joan L. Jeffers | | The Pennsylvania Bigfoot). | | | | 1991 - At 2:00 a.m. a disc-shaped object with a cone-shaped dome was | | sighted hovering next to a radar blimp for 30 minutes in Las Palmas, | | Bayamon, Puerto Rico.
