Orange Light Seen Twice From Sylvan Lake Alberta Canada

This sighting report was never posted !

Date:  August 26, 2021

Time:  Between 9:00 p.m. and 9:45 p.m.

Hello Brian, I saw an orange light in the sky due southwest west from Sylvan Lake on Tuesday August 26, 2021 this week between 9:00 p.m. and 9:45 p.m.. It sat just above the mountains.

It then proceeded to descend rapidly and appeared to descend in front of the mountains. Hard to say.  I didn't watch it very closely yesterday as I was on the phone. I saw it again tonight and I meant to watch, however, I got busy and it was gone by 10:00 p.m.

I never put much thought to it, but after seeing it again tonight, I decided to Google it and I found your post on it. Originally my wife and I put it off as a possible flare.

Thought you might be interested.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

UFO Observed Near Risky Creek 20 Kilometers From Williams Lake British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date Of Sighting:  October 21, 2011.

Time of Sighting:  1:30 p.m.

Location of Sighting:  Near Risky Creek 20 km from Williams Lake BC

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of Objects:  1

Shape of Objects:  Triangular.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: The object crossed the road just above us and then blinked out.

As we drove further down and we then noticed it was to our left just above the trees and it was three different colours.

It followed us for about 30 minutes and we tried to escape it, it kept up with us as we drove 160 km, needless to say we were a little scared.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Red Colored UFO Seen From Cruise Ship 10 Miles From Miami Florida

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  June 2003

Time:  Approxamtlty 9:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: Perhaps 30 people on deck.

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Unknown.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: I looked up to see a light rise above the ocean and arc skyward at a reasonable speed. I thought it was a flare. It rose very high and came to a split second stop, then zipped straight across the sky at an awesome speed.

It again came to a split second pause and then zoomed in the opposite direction. By this time everyone on deck was watching this thing. It was out over the ocean beyond our ship which was headed in to Miami.

We watched the movement for 15-20 minutes. It would descend in some movements and then zoom skyward again. There is no way this could have been a flare nor a conventional aircraft. After 15-20 minutes it zoomed out toward Cuba and that was the last we saw of it.

It was a glowing red light, unblinking, and at times there appeared to also be a white light. It was too far out for us to distinguish a shape.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Loud Sounds Comes From Two Bright Object Over London Ontario Canada

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  September 14, 2011

Time:  5:55 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 3

Number of Objects: 2

Shape of Objects: Round and several different colours of light.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: We were awakened rather abruptly this morning at about 5:55 am. This very loud noise sounded for approximately 20 seconds. It was loud enough to wake us all from a dead sleep.

It was like a snow plough screeching as well as a deeper tone behind the screeching noise, there also seemed to be a kind of vibration accompanying the noise. I hope I'm not describing this too badly!

The noise started faintly and then got louder and louder. After that noise woke us, my daughter came running upstairs and showed me two incredibly bright and multi coloured objects in the sky.

They were moving across the sky slowly in a east, northeast direction. They both faded until they had disappeared completely. This was so cool, but my kids were both upset and scared, so I had to tone down my reaction to this incident.

If anyone else heard/saw the same thing, please report it to this website. Thanks you.

Sasquatch Family And Black Creatures Spotted From My Apartment In North Surrey British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

On January 1, 2004 about noon, the weather was clear and cold with a blanket of snow covering the whole area. I was living in a 17th. fl. apt. in N. Surrey. I am partially disabled, so don't go out much. To amuse myself if the weather was clear, I would watch the skiers over on the North shore mountains through high powered binoculars.

I was doing this January 1, but got bored and decided to see if I could see any animals on the mountain sides. On the mountain across from Port Moody, near the Hydro substation I noticed about half a dozen people apparently snowboarding in a large clearing, found out later it was the west end of the Westwood Plateau Golf Course.

To their left, almost directly under the high voltage power lines, is a small clump of trees next to a hill. On the north side of the trees I saw what appeared to be a large black stump. As I watched the people finished one run and started back up the hill, they apparently decided to go higher and started to veer over towards the clump of trees.

Suddenly the black stump separated into two huge humanoids, they appeared to stare momentarily at the people, then turned and moved off to the NNW into the trees on the north side of the clearing. They appeared to be about four times the size of the people, estimated 8 to 10 feet in height.

I observed the people find the tracks and stand there for a few minutes apparently discussing the situation, the people then left back down the hill. The next day I was watching the clearing from daybreak in hopes of seeing something else. At approximately 10:00 a.m., I observed a very tall shaggy humanoid walk across the south side of the course and go into the small clump of trees. This individual appeared to be twice the height of the black creatures, perhaps 14 to 16 feet tall.

About half the height of the deciduous trees growing in the area. It had auburn, coloured hair approximately six inches long covering it’s body, looked very slender compared to the black guys. Like looking at the Wookie from Star Wars only far taller. Fog rolled in and for about a hour I couldn't see. The fog lifted just in time for me to see it leave the clump and head NNE across the clearing.

I reported every thing I was seeing to the late Graham Conway, I was hoping he might get it checked out as I could plainly see the trails they were making, snow was two or three feet deep when I first saw them. Graham told me later he hadn’t believed me, as he figured they were to close to the houses. I finally managed to get film for my camera and he was quite surprised to see the course was right up against the forest.

By then the snow had all melted. I continued to monitor the area until the first week in February. Last sighting was one of the black creatures walking east beside a sand trap on the south side of the course. During the five or so weeks I observed the area I saw a number of Deer, several Bears, the bears went into the clump of trees and within minutes came running back out.

Same thing, a number of dogs did, ran in apparently playing, ran out with tails between their legs. Towards the end of January I saw one of the black creatures walk across another section of the course and go into the trees, that afternoon I saw about half a dozen golfers show up with their carts. I watched them drive to where the black creature had been earlier, they stopped and got out and appeared to be looking at tracks, they left their carts and followed the same path across the course and into the trees.

They had no sooner gone from sight when I saw a large animal ran from the trees on the north side of the course. It appeared to be an Elk or antlerless Moose and it appeared to be fleeing from something and ran east down one of the cart paths. I glanced back at the trees just in time to see the large auburn haired creature standing there looking across the course to where I'd last seen the golfers.

It stared for about 30 seconds, walked about 20 feet then went back under the trees, I could still see him hiding there, seconds later what appeared to be his wife and son copied his movements, the female? appeared about a foot shorter than the male and what I presumed to be their son was about a foot shorter than her.

I was watching through my spotting scope when I saw them and could clearly see their ling shaggy hair. The black ones looked just like the creature from the Roger Patterson film. The beginning of March 2004, I drove to the area with my wife, she waited at the car while I attempted to walk in. I wanted to go into the clump of trees and see if there was any evidence, turned out it was farther than I thought maybe several hundred yards, ground was very uneven and sloped, I got about a hundred feet and chickened out, I took a photo and it turned out to have about the same perspective as I was getting through my binoculars only much clearer.

Their appears to be a large stump within that clump of trees so maybe the animals are hiding there. One thing that kind of creeped me out was that it was a dead zone, no noise, no birds, no wind and the feeling I was being watched. Had the same feeling up in the mountains near Port Alberni years ago and found Cougar tracks and when I retraced my foot steps.

Anyway I didn't care for the sensation and since I could barely walk retreated as quick as possible, that feeling lifted as soon as I got back on the road and safely in my car. I was keeping a running diary as to what, when and were I was seeing things but sent it all to Graham, also reported to BFRO bigfoot reports, they sent me a file number and that was that.

One thing I noticed when the tall Auburn haired guys were watching the people, they looked like they would be as tall as four golf carts piled on each other.

4 Bright Orange Lights Seen From Rochester New York

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  November 3, 2011

Time:  Approxamtlty 8:30 p.m.

My husband and I have seen these lights at least 4-5 times in the last 2 years. We live in Rochester, NY on Lake Ontario, right where the lake goes into the Irondequoit bay. Tonight being one of these times. Around 8:30 p.m. we saw 4 very bright orange lights, close in formation, over the water.

Looking through our binoculars they appeared to be floating over the water. These were brighter and closer than the other times. They stayed, hung out, faded in and out and then totally disappeared.

There were very dim smaller lights around the larger lights. No sound, very quiet. Let me know if you have any questions!

4 Or 5 Orange And Blue Lights Seen From Falkirk UK

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  May 6, 2011

Time:  Approxamtlty 10:00 p.m.

Me and my wife live just  the south side of Falkirk. Around 10:00 p.m. we witnessed 4 or five distant orange and blue lights to the south of us, maybe near Slamannan. They were moving in a random pattern, which became circular. 

One by one they slowly disappeared into the distance. It was so unusual, that we both turned all the lights off and later went outside.

Call me a skeptic, but the only thing I can think of, other than UFO’s is aircraft in a holding pattern preparing to land at Edinburgh or Cumbernauld. Maybe a flying school training session ?

Humming Sound From Boomerang UFO With 7 Lights Fly’s Over Home Warwick New York

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  April 13, 2007

Time:  2:00 a.m.

Location of Sighting: Over home and tree-line.

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Boomerang with 7 lights.

Brian Vike’s Note: Here is another very interesting report, besides the object itself we have the report from this eyewitness that helicopters may have been following whatever this craft was (?)

Full Description of event/sighting: I was up in bed watching television with my husband around 2:00am when I heard a strange humming sort of mechanical noise.

I just happened to look above (my window is in back of my bed) I saw a boomerang shaped object with white lights above my home fly above the tree-line and disappear. It was very large and I screamed to my husband, "oh my god", but by the time he looked it was gone. I can not believe my eyes.

I few minutes after the sighting I heard aircraft which sounded like helicopters, but I could not see anything. Very strange. I was very afraid to go to sleep !

Light Beams Come From The Clouds And Scan Over North East of Selkirk Manitoba

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  October 12, 2007

Time:  215 a.m.

Location of Sighting: North East of Selkirk Manitoba.

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 6 to 8
Shape of objects: Light beams.

Full Description of event/sighting: While sitting in a outdoor hot-tub with a friend she suddenly stopped talking and said what the hell is that. I turned around to see three too four beams of light coming through the clouds.

This was a very cloudy and cold evening. I turned off the music and the motor to the tub, we leaned are chins on the edge of the tub and watched the lights and listened for any sounds.

There were no sounds coming from the direction of the lights. My guess is that the lights (if they were to reach the ground) were no more then 300 yards away. We watched as the lights seemed to be looking for something.

As if a person was standing on the clouds with a flashlight and looking for his keys he dropped. At times there would be one beam and at others there were six to eight. This would last for around five to eight minutes and then they just left.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Navy Personal Observe A 30 Foot In Diameter Red UFO/Craft From The USS Preserver

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  1984

Time:  Evening.

In 1984 I was a US Navy Diver stationed on board the USS Preserver, ARS-8. We were on a routine excursion to Pensacola, FL from our home port in Little Creek, VA to recover the wreck of a downed Navy Trainer, A-4 I believe.

En-route headed south just east of Cape Hatteras we noticed that our stern running light was out and needed to replace it as dusk was approaching. The aft third of an ARS is all salvage deck and diving space (hydraulic and electrical gear below along with the diving locker) and as such was our responsibility for all maintenance and repairs.

Not a big deal as all that was needed was to lower the flag staff and replace the bulb. The evening meal was being served on the mess decks and while we were changing out the bulb and BS-ing when we saw what appeared to be a flare off to the east.

Oddly enough the 'flare' rose in the sky, disappeared or extinguished then reappeared and whizzed off in a near vertical motion. This was most unusual, but since we thought it was a flare, we reported it to the bridge as a normal course of procedure. We were speculating on the odd occurrence and why a 'flare' would behave in such a peculiar manner.

Could it have been a UFO? Our fellow sailors were now coming out of the galley, one by one and were gathering as we were describing what had happened. For the most part everyone thought we were just being ignorant and dismissed our speculations as just that.

By now it was dark and a very clear night. While in the midst of our banter between divers and the rest of the crew, one of the non-partisans to our little story became pale and his eyes opened as if he had just seen a ghost. He pointed into the sky off the starboard gunwale and we all saw it, a red orb.

This light reminds me for all the world like the little trailing red UFO on Close Encounters (I am just watching it for the umpteenth time which is what caused me to look up 'glowing red light UFO' on Google. This red orb hung with us for awhile and seemed to be about 30' in diameter, though it had no real form.

Our boat only ran at about 13 knots, so this thing was just keeping pace and made not a single sound. We all hustled up to the signal bridge to try to catch a glimpse through the "big eyes", the mounted binocular telescope used by the signal watch.

While on the signal bridge (which happens to be directly above the bridge of the ship where Ops and the Captain are situated) we could hear radio chatter from Coast Guard vessels and other vessels calling the Preserver to inquire about the contact that was showing exactly on our position.

In almost an instant the red orb took off at what seemed like an unimaginable speed again with no sound. We spent the rest of the night looking up towards the heavens, but never saw another thing like the red orb that would mark its place in our memories for the rest of our lives!

Whirring Sound Comes From Massive Black Triangular UFO Over Industry Maine

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Summer 1988

Time:  Afternoon

Location of Sighting: Industry Maine

Number of witnesses: 4
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Triangle.

Full Description of event/sighting: This sighting took place one relatively clear summer afternoon. At the time I was at my ex girlfriends parents home. We were standing out in the yard just talking or what not, can't remember exactly what we were doing. But all of a sudden it got dark, like a big rain cloud just arrived overhead.

I looked up and directly overhead was the largest air craft I had ever seen. Can't really guess how big it was, but it certainly was as big as the biggest jet made or even larger I want to say.

It was triangular in shape, and black. I could not see any markings or windows. It was very low to the ground. It was not silent, but as if it were coasting with engines off. There was just a whirring sound. I couldn't believe anything this big could stay in the air at such a slow speed. I assumed it was a stealth jet. One of those secret ones they don't want us to know too much about.

My first impression was that it was in trouble and was looking for a place to land. This is a mountainous area and by the direction it was headed I thought it might be headed for a farmers field that was about three miles away. I didn't want to miss this, so a few of us hopped in the car and raced towards the field in hopes to see the craft land. We did not see the craft in route nor was there anything at the field when we got there. We got out of the car to listen for anything. There was nothing. That was the end of it.

I'm sure this was just some sort of military maneuver, but I'll never know. I didn't call to report it. I wished I would have if only to know if anything was supposed to be in the area.

I say this took place in 1988, but it may have been 1987 or 1989. The timing is a bit foggy. There had to have been others that saw this that day. I'd be curious to know if any did.

Ghost Stories From Ontario Canada

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Hi Brian, we have a couple of ghost stories amongst my family members and my husband and I.

1. When my Mother was a child, her my Grandmother used to chastise her for throwing a ball up and down the stairs leading to the second floor of the house. My Mother wouldn't stop it, and she stood at the top of the stairs and let the ball drop so it would bounce down the steps. My Grandmother appeared at the foot of the stairs before the ball arrived and all of a sudden it bounced  back up the stairs to my Mother. My Mother was a mere child, I wasn't even thought of then, but it freaked her out so much that she told my Sister and I this story when we were youngsters.

2. Another story that my Mother told my Sister and I, took place when our Mother was but a child. She was with her Grandmother and Grandfather, my Great Grandparents and all of a sudden they all heard the wolves outside. My Great Grandmother opened the door and threw out some salted pork, the howling eventually stopped, this was in winter, it was later in the night when suddenly there was a knock at the door and it was a man who was begging for a drink of water.  My Mother has often wondered if that man was somehow responsible for the howling that had taken place earlier in the evening.

3. My Mother-in-Law died and she has been talking to us via our coffee makers ever since her ashes arrived in our home.  We have gone through many coffee makers and have found no other excuse other than they are being used for some unknown soul to communicate with us. I know it sounds weird, but every coffee maker would make buzz noises long after the brewing was done and we'd say, "hi mom!" and the buzzing would continue for awhile. Some coffee makers were not even plugged in and would turn themselves on. My husband and I witnessed that, spooky eh? 

4. In one of the houses we lived in, I was in the basement where the laundry machines were and I was reaching for an ashtray when all of a sudden it slide across the counter and to my hand. There was no condensation, wetness under the ashtray, nor was the counter on a slope. Lightbulbs were always bursting in that house too.

5.  We  have moved from the above mentioned house and I'm un aware of any ghost visits, our new coffee maker will at times flood the counter with coffee when there's no known excuse for it not to fill the carafe instead, between my husband and I, we can't figure out what we have done to cause the flood, it's really irritating, also this new coffee maker doesn't buzz at all, it just makes messes. hehehe.

BOOOOOOOOO! 

Thank you to the witness for their story.

Family Ghost Story From The 1940s Onward British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Hi Brian, I will send you a separate email so you know who this story is coming from.

I noticed your category for ghost stories and thought I'd add a bit to your collection.  However please be forewarned, it is not dramatic. No chains or moaning!  More like just an unusual family member. 

My family has always had  ghosts.  As a young boy living in Vancouver and Alert Bay my father sometimes saw people who were not there and my mother once watched a group of people disappear right in front of her. She was 15 years old and walking down a street near her home in Vancouver. Coming towards her on the sidewalk but on the next block, was a group of about a dozen people. 

The first thing she noticed was their odd clothing, very old fashioned.  She then realized that although they appeared  to be talking and laughing there was no sound of voices or of feet on the sidewalk. They reached the corner of their block and turned down the side street just before my mother reached the end of her block. She looked around the corner and although they should have been just a short distance away there was no sign of them. For people who live in Vancouver this was in the Kits area around 4th and happened about 1930.  

 When  my parents married in Prince George in 1942 they built a house near the south side of Connought Hill. In those days that was quite far out of town and  very quiet, particularly at night. During the winter of 1943 the ghost arrived.

It announced its arrival by walking up the steps to the front door shortly after my parents went to bed. They could hear the footsteps squeaking in the dry snow as it came up the stairs right outside the bedroom window. No matter how quickly they jumped out of bed and looked out the window they saw nothing unusual. However within 10 minutes of going back to bed a hazy white light about four feet tall would drift past the bedroom door. It never seemed to do any harm and they eventually got used to it. 

In the summer they never heard it arrive but one of them would notice it go by and calmly comment that the ghost was back. Mom used to wish there was some way of getting it to do housework if it was going to be wandering around all night! Three years later we moved to the Okanagan Valley in British Columbia and dad built another house  that we lived in for 12 years. 

Sure enough, before long the ghost was again drifting  through the hallways.  Then for several years it was gone until one night I awoke to see it float past my bedroom door. The next morning my mom was a bit excited.  Before I could say anything about the ghost she said "Guess what? The ghost is back and this time I saw it take a shape!" She had woken up to see a white hand and arm reaching towards the bedside lamp.  Thinking it was my dad she reached out and turned on the light. Of course there was no one there and my dad was deep asleep.

We then moved to Victoria and this time we rented a house instead of building one.  It took the ghost about six months to join us. Over the years my parents rented four more houses before buying the one I live in now. Yes, the ghost went with us to every one of them. It was never more than just a white haze until the late 1960's. Then it took on a very familiar shape. 

One afternoon my parents were sitting in the living room when Timmy, our Border Collie, walked through the room and down a hallway toward the bedrooms.  As he went by he gave them a rather unusual look. A few minutes later they heard him barking.  He was outside and wanted in.  He never had been in the house and walking through the room. No, there were no open windows or doors. My parents checked! 

The ghost was changing and not always for the better! A few months later my parents were again in the living room when they heard a loud crash in  the kitchen. They found that a big bottle of wood stain that was normally at the back of one of the upper kitchen cabinets had somehow come out of the cupboard (the door was still closed) the lid removed and placed on the counter and the bottle thrown against the opposite wall. However, as that was the worst damage that it ever did, we all just accepted that it was there and pretty well ignored it. 

Just as an aside, around this time my parents saw two people disappear on the sidewalk outside the house. One afternoon they happened to notice four people walking along the sidewalk, two women in front and two men very close behind them. They were dressed in oddly old fashioned clothes and were bunched so close together that mom and dad thought the men would be stepping on the ladies dresses. 

For a very brief moment they were out of sight as a tree blocked part of the view from the house. All four went behind the tree and only the two women came out. The tree was near the house, nowhere near the people.  The women did not appear to notice the men were gone. There was nowhere the men  could have gone and dad even went outside to look. Nothing.

Many years later my younger brother was visiting our house with his wife and baby.  I was married  no longer living there. They were staying in the bedroom across the hall from my parents. During the night my mother suddenly awoke.  A few minutes later the baby started to scream.  Just as my brother got up in the dark to see to the baby, a basketball sized  ball of light shot down the hallway.

Immediately the baby stopped crying. Everyone was so startled they all got up and went into the living room. There, even with the lights on, they saw a couple of smaller balls of light bouncing near the ceiling in the corner of the  room. It was very brief and then they were gone.

As the years went by the appearance changed.  My mom died and dad still lives with us in the house.  He and I have both seen a new shape.  This one is shaped like a very narrow black hockey stick (not my idea of a ghost at all!) and darts around very quickly. 

I saw it first on Christmas Eve in 1992 but never mentioned it.  A few days later my dad told of an odd black shape he'd seen darting through the house. The description matched exactly what I had seen. Other than changing size from tall to very short it doesn't really do very much except run around.

As I said at the beginning, our ghost is not dramatic, thank goodness!  I would not be surprised if lots of people have similar "beings" but don't even really notice. However there were some rather strange, unsettling and dramatic events that took place during this time. 

One ghost (or angel?) even saved my life. Right now is not the time to go into it all but if you'd like I'd be happy to give you the details at a later date. Closer to Halloween perhaps! 

Now, in spite of the fact that I say the ghost didn't really frighten us, it is getting late, I am home alone and there is no light in the house except from the computer screen.  I think I'd best stop for now before I start to hear strange noises !  I'm not quite as brave as I like to think I am.

Thank you to the person for the wonderful Ghost experiences.

Air Force Electronics Technician Told To Shut Up From Cannon AFB Officials Over UFO Sightings

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Hi Brian, my next door neighbor and I also had some involvement with the Clovis UFO.

I also knew Steve Muscato, the photographer who took the original picture for the local newspaper.  His photo is of the stationary object that hung directly over Clovis for several days.  

I believe it occurred over quite a few days. There was one stationary light, in addition to other moving objects that many people saw.  Plus, there was a photo in the paper of a mystery object found in a field.

At the time, I was 14 years old. My next door neighbor (name removed) was an Air Force electronics technician who was an amateur ham radio operator and amateur astronomer. He and I spent a night on the top floor of the Hotel Clovis observing the UFO hanging in the sky. He used some sort of equipment to determine how high in the sky the stationary object was.

He excitedly reported that in his judgement the object was approximately 300 miles above the Earth. I also took some photos, but I no longer have them. My next door neighbor was told to shut up by the base and quit "exciting the locals with wild stories." 

He didn't tell me about this, but his wife later related the story of the phone call he got from his boss, to my mother. I also heard stories of guys coming from "Project Blue Book" to investigate, but my Dad, an Air Force master sergeant, said that was ridiculous because Project Blue Book didn't exist. 

As an adult, I served a number of years in the Air Force and my job put me in contact with virtually every plane in the U.S. and NATO inventory. Some have claimed that the UFOs were British harrier jets. Absolutely not so.

I grew up around jets my whole life and could identify them even as a child. Neither were they weather balloons. I would have to research, but I'm not sure the Harriers were even operational at that time. 

In all reality, one has to try very hard in order to mistake a jet fighter for anything else. The whole thing was very interesting, and ended as mysteriously as it started. 

There was no real closure. But if you recall, Clovis was part of a rather massive UFO "scare" that occurred for a few years nationwide, beginning with the incident at Pasagoula, Miss, I think a couple of years earlier.  It was a busy time for UFO activity.  You can contact me at (phone number removed) or at email address removed if you like.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Police Sergeant Fires Three Rounds From .303 Rifle At UFO At Braeside Fort Beaufort South Africa

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

This is one amazing case with companies lining up in hopes of filming a documentary on this sighting. I was shut down and never passed the information along to any of them. I can tell you, there is no way I am handing out case after case to TV networks to run documentaries on my work like I did when I owned and operated HBCC UFO Research, (I don't anymore) for nothing. Most UFO people get nothing for their work, I won't hand it over anymore unless they are going to actually pay for the material if I appear in the film or not. Tired of them using us. Getting tried of this in my old age, maybe I am getting grumpy. LOL.

Brian Vike’s Note: I have been talking by way of email to the then sergeant of the  South African Police. The witness has agreed to be interviewed by way of telephone and Brian Vike will be interviewing the gentleman for an upcoming show on the Vike Report. Stayed tuned for details as this will certainly be one amazing story to be related. Also please note that permission has been granted to leave the report as is, with name intact.

Date: June 26, 1972 Time: 10.00 (?) 

Location of Sighting: Braeside Fort Beaufort. Number of witnesses: 12 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Oval.

Full Description of event/sighting: Incident were reported by others previously. I was then a sergeant in the South African Police and witnessed the sighting. I was the policeman who fired shots at the object with a .303 rifle and hitting it together with (name removed), who was the owner of the farm.

What I still cannot understand is that how could be possible that the object have vanished into thin air without we who were watching the spot not being able to see it taking off.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Additional Information:

Hi Brain, in 1972, I was a sergeant in the South African Police, with eight years of service, in the small South African town, Fort Beaufort. The morning of June 26, I received a report of an object which appeared on the farm Braeside, which belonged to a Mr. Bennie Smit.

At that stage I did not know Mr. Smit well. I persuaded the Station Commander, Warrant Officer Philip Van Rensburg to accompany me to the scene. On the farm we met Mr. Smit and some of his workers including a worker by the name of Boer de Klerk.

Boer told us that during the morning when he was in the field at the reservoir when he witnessed a round "ball of fire" which changed in colours, hovering about 20 meters above the ground and which were slowly moving in the direction of the hill, which separates the farm from the Fort Fordyce bush.

On our arrival we did not witness any suspicious objects. We did the initial investigation and were skeptical. At that stage we were seven people. Four laborers, 2 policemen and Mr. Smit.

Whilst we were standing looking at the hill which were 150 meters from us, I saw an object which emerged from the thick bush and vegetation at the foot of the hill and hovered just above the vegetation. It moved slowly to our right and again disappeared behind the thick bush.

It did this movement a couple of times and I had the feeling that we were being watched. Mr. Smit had a .303 rifle with him and I decided to take a shot at it. The object were oval shaped and it was difficult to estimate the size of it. Might have been just over a meter in diameter.

It had a shiny dark metal grey colour. I fired three shots at it, hitting with each shot. Mr. Smit also fired at the object. During firing at it, I saw a sharp bright light, flickering on the right of the craft, just above it.

During the shots it also disappeared and emerged again from behind the trees. It was in broad daylight after 10:00 a.m. in the morning and the weather was clear. Mr. Smit and some of the workers went into the bush with a handkerchief, tied to a stick enabling us to direct him.

We noticed that the object moved away as if it were reacting to our voices giving direction to the searchers.  I  heard further shots coming from close to where we last seen the object disappeared  and Mr. Smit enquiring if we could see it.  We kept observation but did not see its departure. According to Smit who claimed that they came close to it.

The object turned upright and became a greyish white in colour before it veered of making a whirring sound. It just disappeared. The following day we combed the area with other police officers and found nine evenly spread circular imprints about 10cm in diameter in the soil directly from where we saw it disappearing behind the bushes. 

The imprints were in hard clay soil easily 25 - 30 mm deep, as if the legs were spiraled in the ground. Samples were taken and send to the Council for Scientific and Industrial research Laboratories. Apparently it never reached them.

Also of interest is that a couple of days later in the evening the town engineer Dr. D. Verschoor, interrupted a Council meeting to show the councilors a UFO flashing in colours as it moved in the direction of the Fort Fordyce bush and Braeside.

On Saturday 8 July during the night, Mr. Smit heard a loud explosion on his farm. On investigation the next morning he discovered that his reservoir, which were constructed of brick and cement were shattered and large concrete blocks were lying up to 20 meters away from the actual site. Another mysterious incident, never solved.

Thank you again to the witness for this amazing report.

UFO From Dead Stop Streaks Across The Sky Outside Smithers British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Late Fall 2003

Time:  Evening

A witness was telling be that his friend had been out Bow hunting for Moose along the Babine Lake Road. His friend did shoot at a Moose and the fellow thought he had hit it. 

The witnesses friend came back home and got his friend and both jumped into the truck and headed back out on the Babine Lake Road to where the Moose would have been.

Now seeing it was after dark when driving back out the witness I talked with said he noticed a couple of bright stars off to his right hand side (east) and another, much brighter and larger which appeared to be a lot lower down in the sky. 

They were thinking that the lower star may just have been a planet at that time. So they continued driving along, of course his friend is excited and talking about possibly getting his Moose, at the same time the his friend is watching this bright object which he thought to be a planet. 

He started thinking about the brightness and size believing what he was observing was a little weird. At the time this bright object sat motionless and was a long ways away from the two men in the truck and he figures he had been watching it for approximately 3 minutes now.

All of a sudden this bright/large light in the sky from a dead stop just streaked across the night sky in a split second and they both lost sight of it due to the mountain blocking their view.

Thank you to the witness for the report.
