Latest UFO Pictures: Too Good To Be True ?


'Chad', is all we know about the identity of the guy who contacted 'Coast to Coast' ( the popular American radio show / web site) recently about a UFO recorded back in April - the effects of which were causing concern for himself and his pregnant wife. He says he was out walking one day (unknown location) and he spotted the following strange unidentified flying object.

As you can see, the detail is quite unsurpassed for a 'UFO' picture. Clear(ish) markings underneath indicate an as yet unknown language. Some pundits have suggested that the 'letters' are some kind of Asian extraction and that the whole thing has been CGI produced ( using clever computer graphics).

'Chad' added that he took the less detailed picture using a mobile phone and that was the first. He came back later with a borrowed camera and a friend to take the better pictures.

He told Coast to Coast: " Last month (April 2007), my wife and I were on a walk when we noticed a very large, very strange "craft" in the sky. My wife took a picture with her cell phone camera (first photo below). A few days later a friend (and neighbor) lent me his camera and came with me to take photos of this "craft". We found it and took a number of very clear photos. Picture #4 is taken from right below this thing and I must give my friend credit as I was not brave enough to get close enough to take this picture myself!"

Describing it as moving like an insect, making just an electrical 'crackling' type of sound, Chad explains what he saw:

"Since it first appeared, I have probably seen this thing maybe 8 different times since the first appearance. My friend and I went out the next day after I first saw it to get the photos, but it was not there. Then we tried again the next day, and we found it within like 30 minutes and followed it for a while. Most of the time I see it out of windows in my house, in the distance. but I would say almost half of the hikes I have gone on in my area, I have seen it very close. It is very easy to photograph and...many neighbors aside from my friend have also seen it.

It is almost totally silent but not quite. It makes kind of "crackling" noises. It's hard to describe them but they are only intermittent and not very loud, but you can notice them. Sometimes there is a very slight hum that sounds kind of mechanical, almost like when you are near very large power lines. But it is nothing loud like a jet engine, it is very quiet for the most part.

It moves almost like an insect. If you have ever seen a bug on a pond, it is kind of like that. It is VERY smooth and slow most of the time, but then every now and then it will rotate very quickly and go VERY fast into another direction, then stop, and repeat the process all over again. There is just something very unnatural about the way it moves."

Intriguing. But there's a serious health risk to us, if we are to believe Chad.

Sure, of course there have been 'experts' in CGI saying how easy it would be to 'mock' this thing up using advanced computer technology and digital image editing / creating.

Case solved?... It seems. Until you start to look at what the results of those 'replications' look like - and they don't replicate the 'real' thing, as in Chad's claim.

Then, today I find that MUFON have just had a report in (5th May), this time located at Lake Tahoe - yet with a very similar UFO. The same 'design' - but some perhaps subtle ( or telling) signs. The first being it has a slightly different and larger 'blade' arm. Another being it shows more 'arms' than the 'Chad' series.

In one section of one the new pictures I have enlarged the 'object' - and you can see quite clearly an 'edge' or some kind of digital 'halo' ( or force-field! :)) artefact from the image. My first thought is that it has been 'cut and pasted'.. but I'm no expert.

During the research of this latest 'flap' over the 'flying cross' UFO's apparently being seen across America, I came across a similar sighting going back to 1968.

“The shape of the ‘craft’ prior to leveling out to ‘hover’ position was of a central circular chamber with a leading fuselage in the front and three separate fuselages together at the rear,” the former World War II photographic interpreter stated. “On slowing to ‘hover’ position the two outer fuselages at the rear moved to position at [the] side of [the] ‘craft’ to form four fuselages at equidistant position around [the] center chamber…. On attaining ‘hover’ the ‘craft’ rotated 90 degrees clockwise and then remained motionless, unaffected by very strong wind.”
Only time will tell of course.

But as the technology becomes increasingly advanced and capable of created amazing images with cutting edge CGI graphics - how blase' are we to become about 'UFO pictures' as they continue to become 'too good to be true' ?

An on-line debate has begun with experts, more pictures and updates as the story develops

British Columbia Sasquatch Sighting


CRANBROOK, B.C. — A Cranbrook resident says he was just beginning his early-morning shift as a sand truck/snowplow driver for a highways maintenance contractor when he saw what he now calls “the beast.”
Gord Johnson says he was barely out of the Cranbrook city limits, heading west, when his headlights illuminated what he thought was a human figure some 150 metres away.

“It was standing in the ditch on the right side of the road, sort of bent over. It was dark and cold and too early in the morning for anybody to be out picking bottles or something, so I thought whoever it was might be hurt or sick, so I slowed down.”

As Johnson drew nearer, the figure in the ditch straightened, then turned and began to move towards his truck while remaining in the ditch.

As the distance closed the snowplough driver was now better able to see that this individual was oddly shaped; very large with arms that reached nearly to its knees, a conical head and what he had initially thought to be a light golden brown parka was instead hair.

The two-metre-plus figure walking towards him was covered in it, he says.

Johnson’s truck slowly passed the creature, allowing him to see it clearly through the passenger side window.

“It gives me goose-bumps right now just thinking about it. I must have been in shock because I drove on another couple hundred yards before I realized I had to turn the truck around and get another look at this beast, but by then it had disappeared.”

Johnson finished his shift and decided that because he had no proof, it would be in his best interests not to share the details of the encounter, lest he be ridiculed. The one person he did tell was his longtime partner Victoria Carter.

“Gord was very shaken by the incident. Just because of the way it affected him I knew he’d seen something — I knew he was telling the truth,” Carter said.

Nearly three months later, on Jan. 25, Johnson was again maintaining a road in the early morning when his truck ran out of sand. Finding a wide spot in the road he began turning his truck around so he could head back for another load to finish the job.

While backing up, he noticed a set of strange tracks in the newly fallen snow and decided to get out and investigate.

“As soon as I saw them I could tell they were made by something walking on only two legs — kind of offset. Right away my gut told me something wasn’t right. I took a couple shots with the disposable camera that I started carrying since the October incident.”

Johnson finished his shift, then wanting to show Carter what he considered possible proof of his previous encounter with a strange biped, returned to the spot with a better camera.

The pair then re-photographed the tracks, measured the distance between them (about 1.8 metres), and then followed them a short distance until they disappeared into dense brush.

With the light failing and the possibility that whatever had made the tracks might still be in the vicinity, the pair decided not to follow the mystery beast’s trail any further.

Ghostly Images Seen, Photographed On 'Deadly' Stretch Of I-4

Report: Interstate Built Over Graves

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Ghostly apparitions have been seen and photographed on a small stretch of Interstate 4 known as "the I-4 Dead Zone" in which hundreds of people have been killed or injured in crashes, according to a Local 6 investigation.

Since 1963, nearly 2,000 accidents have been reported on a stretch of Interstate 4 in Central Florida located between Daytona Beach and Orlando, the report said.

Over the years, people have reported seeing strange things on the stretch of road, according to the report.

"People are claiming to see all kinds of things -- orbs floating across the highway, apparitions on the side of the road hitchhiking, phantom trucks, you name it," book author Charlie Carlson said. "There are dead people beneath interstate 4."

Local 6 reported that the road where the crashes happened cradles the graves of a family of four.

The graves date back to the 1880s and a settlement called St. Joseph’s Catholic Colony, the report said. One of the German families fell victim to a yellow fever epidemic.

"It is two adults and two children buried on the very spot that has been shrouded in mystery," Holfeld said.

"They are still there," Carlson said. "In fact, when I-4 came through in 1960, the graves were roped off and marked for removal but they never removed the graves. Instead, they dumped fill dirt on top to elevate the new highway."

Carlson said he remembered seeing the graves as a child and warned not to mess with them.

Susan Christensen, who is a medium, said she feels an unhappiness and a presence from a family of four.

Christensen said she has seen orbs on the highway.

"Twice I have seen four orbs cross I-4," Christensen said. "They’re earth bound and they feel that their lives were taken away from them."

"There were more accidents per year in such a small quarter-mile section of highway than all the other sections of highway between Daytona and Tampa," Carlson said.

Sanford Historian Christine Best said she deals with fact but admitted that "you can’t help but to wonder."

"Hearing so many of the stories certainly make you stop and think about it," Best said.

"Reasonable people would put the Dead Zone accidents in the column of pure coincidence," Holfeld said. "But the stories continue to add to this legend. Legend aside, there is one undisputed fact that the graves remain under the I-4 Dead Zone."

The Florida Highway Patrol is working with Local 6 to develop new information in the case, Holfeld reported.

Scientific Evidence Suggests Puerto Rican Woman is an Extraterrestrial-Human Hybrid

San Juan, Puerto Rico - Milagros Garcia is an alleged Alien and Human inter-species hybrid. The blood DNA from this Puerto Rican woman has yielded analyses so unusual and interesting that the physician involved is now interested in meeting the subject for further study. The DNA is possible in humans but is very rare.

Ms. Garcia claims that she is the offspring of an alien encounter. The Doctor is not interested in the UFO/ alien phenomena he wants answers as to why her DNA has such rare qualities.

A Case similar to this is being investigated in New Paris Ohio. A woman there has exceptional skills and get by on two hours of sleep a night. Pictured on the left is Milagros Garcia's Mother and Milagros Garcia is on the right.

Sarnia Sees Surge in UFO Sightings

Sarnia, Ontario, Canada - Sarnia experienced a spike in the number of mysterious objects spotted in the sky last year, according a survey of Canadian UFO sightings.

Five unidentified flying objects were reported locally in 2006, up from single sightings in 2004 and 2005.

The Sarnia cases include everything from a light that appeared in the night sky briefly to more perplexing sightings.

On July 15 a witness described seeing a "large number of little black things" as well as a large yellow disk and an unmarked helicopter over the city around 9:20 p.m.

Another witness reported seeing an object drifting in the sky, which "seemed to have a glow around it."

There were 736 sightings of UFOs over Canada last year.

The vast majority of cases, including those in Sarnia, have a probable explanation such as a plane, planet, meteor or fireball, said Chris Rutkowski, a Winnipeg-based UFO expert and co-author of the survey.

"A small percentage are what we call unexplained or unidentified," he said. Those cases make up only 12 per cent of the total sightings.

But they do give one reason to ponder, said Rutkowski, recalling a case in North Bay, Ont. last year in which a motorist reported seeing three blue lights ahead of him.

"He thought perhaps they were three motorcycles heading towards him, but then he watched and two of them moved up and into the trees," he said.

The remaining light continued to within a metre of the vehicle and appeared to the driver as a "ball of blue light about the size of a beach ball."

"Those are the ones that tend to make you think, hmm," Rutkowski said.

Another witness reported a large, black, triangular object surrounded by "little white Christmas tree lights" on the coast of Newfoundland.

After compiling the survey for 17 years, Rutkowski said one noticeable trend is that people tend to be spotting large, triangular objects more often than the traditional disc-shaped "saucers."

"The classic Hollywood flying saucer is pass‚," he said.

Although claiming to see a UFO still carries a stigma, Rutkowski said many people seem more willing to come forward and tell their stories.

Witnesses include pilots, air traffic operators, military personnel and police.

Despite the number of sightings, the survey notes there is no reason to conclude alien life forms are responsible.

"Popular opinion to the contrary, there is yet to be any incontrovertible evidence that some UFO cases involve extraterrestrial contact," it states.

Bigfoot Risks Extinction, Says Canadian MP


Bigfoot, the legendary hairy man-like beast said to roam the wildernesses of North America, is not shy, merely so rare it risks extinction and should be protected as an endangered species.

So says Canadian MP Mike Lake who has called for Bigfoot to be protected under Canada's species at risk act, alongside Whooping Cranes, Blue Whales, and Red Mulberry trees.

"The debate over their (Bigfoot's) existence is moot in the circumstance of their tenuous hold on merely existing," reads a petition presented by Lake to parliament in March and due to be discussed next week.

"Therefore, the petitioners request the House of Commons to establish immediate, comprehensive legislation to affect immediate protection of Bigfoot," says the petition signed by almost 500 of Lake's constituents in Edmonton, Alberta.

A similar appeal has been made to the US Congress.

Down through history, there have been numerous, if unsubstantiated sightings of Bigfoot, also known as Sasquatch in North American folklore.

The beast is said to inhabit remote forests, mainly in the US Pacific northwest and western Canada, and many believe it could be related to the equally mythical Yeti said to have found its home in Tibet and Nepal.

While sometimes described as large, hairy bipedal hominoids, Bigfoot are considered by most experts to be a combination of folklore and hoaxes.

But the legend remains strong, and Bigfoot researcher Todd Standing, who was behind the petition, claims to have proof of its existence, and says he fears for its safety.

"When I get species protection for them nationwide, I will make my findings public and I will take this out of the realm of mythology. Bigfoot is real," Standing told Global National television news.

He said he has 12 seconds of video footage of Bigfoot roaming Canada's western Rocky Mountains included in a 30-minute documentary, but his detractors say it was staged with actors.

His supporters hail from Canada's westernmost provinces, but Bigfoot sightings have been reported across the country, which is 90 percent uninhabited.

There are currently 516 plant and animal species at risk in Canada, according to Environment Canada. Another 13 species are already extinct.

Paranormal Sightings Continue in the Bridgewater Triangle


May 1, 2007 - The "Bridgewater Triangle" is an area that encompasses many towns; but more or less lays right in the middle of the area in a swamp, called the Hockomock Swamp, located in Massachusetts.

The American Indians call it the Devil's swamp and in 1760 it was the spot where one of the first UFOs was reported. The object was described as being a spheroid that crossed the swamp in the daytime and it looked like a "sphere on fire."


The Bridgewater Triangle is an area of 200 square miles. It encompasses Bridgewaters, Raynham, Taunton, Brockton, Mansfield, Norton and Easton, plus the towns of Abington, Freetown and Rehoboth. This is home to the Hockomock Swamp - a paranormal corridor within the triangle. Strange and unusual sightings have been reported including huge snakes, large birds, the Native Indians refer to as thunderbirds, and a large creature described as a Bigfoot because it leaves 18 inch footprints.

But this is not the end of the story.

Some sightings still occur on an mysterious area: a giant bird-like, or some say a pterosaur like creature was seen flying over the swamp and its wingspan is estimated to be over12-feet.
