I stumbled upon some old UFO footage out of Texas that I just had to bring to your attention! Let me know what you think of this case in the comments below, or on Facebook or Twitter, especially if you know more information about this particular incident. A Houston resident who went to feed his dogs in the backyard spotted a dark, saucer-shaped object overhead. He felt "scared" and "speechless" during the sighting, and actually had trouble vocalizing during it. He noticed his dogs also seemed to have trouble barking! He felt as if the UFO was sending him a signal saying "Don't move... don't say anything... just watch..." What is intriguing is this is not the first time I've heard of an encounter like this; some witnesses to the well-documented Phoenix Lights incident in 1997 also experienced a feeling of not being able to talk or make noise as the UFO passed over. Fortunately this witness had enough self-control to video tape the UFO, and talk about the incident on camera later. Apparently, he shared the footage with famed UFO researcher Jaime Maussan, who believed the footage to be real: Video by itself with no testimony: But is this footage real?
Or just a hoax? If it's a hoax, how do you think it was made? (Keep in mind, the original video was uploaded to YouTube in 2008.) And if it is real, what is it showing? Does this prove that aliens are real, and are visiting Texas? Or is there an easier explanation?

Three UFO reports out of Amarillo, Texas, spanning 1988 to 1990, have recently been submitted to MUFON (cases 121379, 121340, and 121313). I presume they were all submitted by the same witness or by a MUFON field investigator documenting a single witness' encounters. (Another MUFON report, case 94643, submitted back in 2018, is also referenced in the testimony as something to compare to...) I am not going to share each of these sightings, but just one. Note that each report has drawings and a detailed testimony to go with it. Also note that this testimony references another similar MUFON report (case 94643), which was submitted in 2018, and I think that was a different witness entirely (but I have no way to verify): While residing in the northeast quadrant of Amarillo, TX, some time before the resumption of the 1990-1991 school-year for my kids, my son complained to me that the "space guys" were STILL bothering him during the night, and that during the previous night to his retelling of the event, he claimed that he had awakened suddenly during the early morning, to observe 3 Grey-variant entities in the process of exiting his bedroom one-at-a-time, by "hover-gliding" along and somehow "passing through" the walls and closed window of the bedroom, headed westward. He reported deciding to get out of bed and look out of the window in the direction the small humanoids had departed, while becoming aware that he had experienced yet another of the troublesome, nighttime nosebleeds. Reported looking out of the west-facing window, and although did not observe any more entity activity, he reported observing a landed UFO within the confines of the residence's large, rear yard, at an approx. 25'-35' range into the yard. He reported that the object appeared as flat/dull silvery-gray in overall coloration, had a "bell"-shape with a raised, centrally-located dome/copula on top, a short, flat-bottom, centrally-located "cylinder"-like feature extending a short ways below/beyond the main body's bottom edge, had roundish portholes/windows around the main body's circumference, had tripod-like landing struts and crew access ramp/staircase lowered and in place for use, and with fairly faint/dim light emanating out/through the ramp/staircase and porthole/window areas. Object was estimated as approx. 30'-40' diameter, stood approx. 20'-30' from the ground, with the dome/copula area approx. 5' tall and approx. 8' diameter. After observing the scene for a bit, and making sure the humanoids weren't still skulking around, reported having an "impulse" to just return to bed and sleep, which he did without any thought/action towards cleaning up any of the "nosebleed mess", until awakening again in the later morning. Incident was somewhat similar to part of report content within MUFON case #94643. Sketch/map available. When a witness claims to have seen multiple UFOs, does that make you more or less likely to believe their "stories?" I think this is an interesting phenomenon within the phenomenon... sometimes those with the most fascinating encounters, or with repeated encounters, get marginalized in this field. As if their experiences are "too good to be true." But if we are considering ETs to be the origin of some UFOs, then why would we expect any less from witnesses?
Another thing to consider is... why do some people see UFOs more often than others? Do UFO witnesses simply look up at the sky more often; are they more aware of their surroundings than others? Or could it even be that some people are capable of perceiving UFOs, while others aren't?!? Another possibility is that UFOs may target certain individuals. It could be a combo. Let me know your thoughts on this sighting and more in the comments below, or on Twitter or Facebook. Have you ever had a UFO experience like this before? Are you one of those witnesses who sees UFOs frequently? Let me know! "I know what we saw, and it was life changing" - Flying Saucer? Over Texas, Briefly caught on video2/28/2022
Video and testimony has been sent to me that shows a thin, white, disc-shaped craft over Liberty Hill. While driving, Harold Abbott and his daughter witnessed a "half disc with 15 bright lights lining the edge;" and Harold was understandably amazed at such a sight! He was able to capture footage of the object, but he admits that the grainy, dark quality of it does not do the sighting justice. It's better than nothing, though. After viewing the footage, I can confirm that if you watch it up close and in high quality, you will indeed see the disc that Harold describes: At first, no UFO can be seen: But if you look closely, a thin white disc then appears: With contrast added: The camera then zooms out (or the object flies away), and the video is over: We were stopped at the light and my daughter asked me what is that and when I looked up. It was night time and I could see like a half disc with about 15 bright lights lining the edge of the disc - like a half circle. And then puff it was gone - it was frickin' huge; I'll never forget it, as long as I live. I know what we saw, and it was like life changing. She took a video but it's so grainy that you can hardly see the lights. It all happen so fast Did you happen to see this UFO, too? Help us crack this case and report your sighting.

Credit to the UFOB twitter account for this great case: According to an April 9th, 1950 news report in the Amarillo Sunday Times (I was not able to find the original issue, but there are a few references online), 12 and 9-year-old cousins, David and Charles Lightfoot, were out fishing when they first spotted a "balloon" in the sky - except upon closer inspection, it wasn't a balloon at all... The two young boys could see the saucer in detail, and shared their encounter with reporters; David described the craft as "as big or round as a big automobile tire" and explained how "the bottom was still, but the top was spinning around real fast, and on the top of the part that was spinning around there was a little peak that had a kind of spindle thing sticking out of it. The spindle was still, too. It must have been connected to the bottom part." After watching the saucer land, David ran up to it, and managed to touch it, before it took off "like it was on a string" and disappeared into the sky. The boy described the UFO as feeling "slick" and "hot," like a "snake would." His father said the boy had an inexplicable sunburn with welts upon returning home. This is similar to another case in Texas - the Cash Landrum incident, in which a witness approached a UFO and was burned as a result. Now, the flying saucer sightings are absolutely fascinating to me. Although they are reported today (see the witness drawings below), there appears to have been a wave of them in Texas in the 50s (see video about those cases below Some of the details these Texas boys describe about the flying saucer they saw remind me of the details of a witness to a saucer in Germany around the same time! ), and so it is hard not to imagine these cases to be connected. Let me know what you think in the comments, or on Twitter or Facebook.
A really intriguing testimony, as well as drawings, of a flying saucer UFO over Austin has been submitted to MUFON (case 120716). The event occurred more than a decade ago, but as far as I know, this is the first time it is getting reported online. I could not find any other reports from Austin in 2005 like this, but if you know more about this sighting, let me know. creepy disc looked at me and dad |
