Silent UFO Hovers With Blinding Light Over Coast Guard Vessel In Mobile Bay Alabama

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  1959 or 1960

Time:  Evening (?)

I want to pass this story along to you that my sister told me. Her best guess on the year was 1959 or 1960. My father was chief engineer at WALA TV in Mobile, Alabama for 16 years.

Every day he would take lunch at a location next to the TV station known as the Princess House. One day while having lunch one of his friends from the Coast Guard told of a sighting that they had the night before.

It seems they were out in Mobile Bay doing their usual duties when a craft appeared above the boat with blinding light and hovered for some time. After which the craft shot off. He stated that it scared the crap out of them. He also stated that the craft made no noise at all.

This is all my sister remembers of the story. Maybe someone out there knows more.

Thank you to the gentleman for relating this sighting to me.

A Silent Large Triangular Craft/UFO With Lights Sardis British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  May 4, 2007

Time:  11:25 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 1

Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Triangular.

Full Description of event/sighting: I went outside to bring my cat in for the night and I happened to look up at the sky. We get a lot of air traffic over our house, but I've never seen anything like this.

I'm wondering if it was a Stealth plane because it made absolutely no noise and it was very large. I can't really say how big it was as the sky was partially overcast and I couldn't compare it to the mountains (which would give me an idea of  how high it was flying as well as it's size).

It seemed to be flying quite low, and was much larger than the planes that normally fly over our place. It had 5 orange/red coloured lights which were steady - they didn't flash like the lights of a plane usually do. I think there were 3 on one side, and two on the other making it look a little off kilter. 

I believe it was a triangular shape. I couldn't actually see the body, but it blocked out an area of sky. I saw it for maybe 5 seconds and then it was gone behind the clouds. It didn't seem to be travelling very fast.

The thing that really made me take notice was that there was absolutely no sound whatsoever. For something so large, well that is why I'm wondering if it was perhaps a Stealth or some sort of spy plane. Have you had any similar reports from anyone.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Triangular Craft/UFO With Three Lights One In Each Corner Bangalore Karnataka India

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  April 10, 2001

Time:  Midnight

Number of witnesses: 3

Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Triangular.

Full Description of event/sighting: It was April end, but I can't remember the exact date. Even it has been more than 6 years I am submitting this information to you because at that time I didn't know of such internet facilities and don't know that UFO are available online. So let me start my story. I and my 2 friends were sitting outside in front of our room in Dharwad (a city in Karnataka in India). I was studying my secondary in this city and I was staying with my roommates in the room. We were sitting outside our room on the road. There was a heap of sand on the road which was put for some construction work.

I and my two friends were chatting about some matters. Suddenly our room owners son came out of his house to go to the washroom. He was doing his business on the road and we were teasing him. After that we turned our attention and were busy chatting. Suddenly that little boy pointed to the sky and said " See a big Airplane!" he shouted. All at once we all looked at the sky and saw a strange object. It was neither a plane or a helicopter. But was in triangular shape with 3 lights on each end. It was so close that I would have caught it if I was on a second story building.

It was cruising towards a hill on which our college was located. We chased it up to 4-5 minutes, but we couldn't climb the mountain so fast. And it was approximately 30-40km/hr moving faster. At last we climbed the mountain after 20 minutes suspecting that it would have landed on the mountain, but it was not there. It disappeared in the clouds.

That was mind blowing. We were sure it was a UFO (non-human made). The whole night we didn't sleep. The next morning we shared these experiences with our friends, but know one believed us. But we three were confident as to what we witnessed. The next day a Daily News paper reported a UFO sighting, and after that every one believed.

Large UFO With Windows Over Home And Humming Sound Almont Michigan

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Fall of 1990.

Time:  Approxamtlty 8:00 p.m.

I did report this about 2 years ago to Larry Hatch, I'm not sure why I waited so long, but for some reason it really started to occupy my thoughts. We had several emails about it and he seemed very interested, he eventually referred me to someone from the Michigan Mutual UFO Network, he emailed me a few times and that was it.

To tell you the truth I just felt better telling someone that had an interest in it, but I'm not sure if the guy either believed me, or just wasn't interested. I will give you a brief summery, to me this was the most unusual event in my life and I still think about it daily.

It was the Fall of 1990, yes, 16 years ago! I was in my home in Almont, MI. That time of year it gets dark quite early, it must of been around 8:00 p.m., "the times are now just an approximation".

My son, who at the time was around 12 came running in the house saying there was a UFO right outside our house. Let me add at this point I was not one that believed in UFOs. I went outside and my son pointed south and upwards and said look!

The funny thing was at first I didn't see anything, but I did notice it was unusually dark, then I noticed a very dim light, I suddenly realized that the reason it was so dark was that there was a huge craft right over our driveway.

It was at tree level and was moving north and a very slow pace, "approximately a slow walking speed". There was a very distinct humming, exactly like a large transformers hums, there was a very dull light in the middle and as it traveled down or driveway I made out a row of windows around the craft, the windows looked very large.

I remember walking down the driveway with my son, then the next thing I remember is standing out in the field north of my house still looking at the UFO, when suddenly it went from approximately 90 or 100 feet straight up in the sky to where it was a pinpoint of light. It just looked like another star.

This happened in under a second. We continued to watch it for quite awhile when it took off in a northwesterly direction like a meteor and was gone in a second. There are allot of things I can describe if your interested, but this is the basic part.

I don't feel like I was abducted, but I honestly do not remember how I got from my driveway and then in the field. I ask my son about it and he remembers things the way I do, but what I find unusual is that 1. I didn't really focus on it that much after the initial day it happened until a few years ago. 2. My son doesn't seem as interested as I am, even though he is a very intelligent guy.

I was a flight simulator instructor in the air force and I have allot of knowledge regarding aircraft. This will always go down as the most bizarre day in my life. By the way, it seemed like I was being watched by someone in the window, but it was like you could only make out a shadow.

I am now fascinated by UFO's and I know that there out there. Please, if you have any more questions feel free to ask. Almont is about 20 SE of Brown City. I have never seen another unusual craft. This was defiantly a UFO, there is no other explanation for it, I am the type of guy that checks his facts, there is nothing on our planet that I am aware of that could do what I saw! The pilots would be dead just from the G forces.

It surprises me that there have been so many incidences in that area and I never heard about it. From my house to the field was approximately 1000 feet, " you would think that with what was going on, I would remember that sort of distance".

I am not really concerned weather anyone believes me or not, unless it is someone that is suppose to investigate this sort of thing. They really need to have an open mind and check the facts. The last few years I have gotten increasingly interested in this subject and there have only been a few incidences that I have read about where people have been as close as I was. I guess I am just intrigued. It really fascinates me!

I was so close, 90 feet. The funny thing about it was I didn't feel threatened, In a weird way I felt like it was something from our future, as bizarre as that sounds. I feel that we need to have confidence in our instincts, I felt like I was on display and really being watched.

One thing I didn't mention and to this day I am not sure why I didn't act, is that I am a professional photographer. What a dummy! the shot of a life time and I didn't even think about it. This is another thing I cant explain, I take my cameras everywhere with me.

The first ten years, I would occasionally ask my son if he remembered everything about that night and he would say yes, but not really want to talk about it. It seemed like more of a dream. WHY?

Neither my son or I am the type of person not to act on something so significant, an event of a life time. Another factor about that night was the route the craft was traveling, right down my driveway.

My power lines go right down the drive and sometime that winter I had to call Edison out, they told me that the wires were completely bare" no insulation at all", and had to replace them, including the transformer. I am not sure if it relates, but I have read stories about these craft using power lines.

Thank you to the witness for this excellent and interesting sighting report.

Saucer Shaped UFO With Legs Saskatoon Saskatchewan

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  November 2002

Time:  11:50 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 4

Number of objects: 1

Shape of objects: Saucer with legs.

Full Description of event/sighting: I was driving my son age 14 and my roommates twins age 9 to my sons basketball game. We were driving down Circle Drive Bridge going west when I looked up in the sky and noticed a metal object in the sky.

This object was located above, but just behind the Rona building not too high up. I told the kids to have a look at this thing and we were all in awe. The traffic light at Circle Drive and Miller Ave, it turned red so then we had a better look.

This object which I believe was a UFO, was not moving, it was just sitting there idle in the sky. It was a metal saucer shape with about 5 legs with these large metal balls under the legs, but not attached to the legs.

These balls were idle spinning very fast. It was almost like the spinning balls were keeping the UFO in mid air with the force. Then the balls started moving in a counter clockwise direction (still spinning) underneath the object in a circle.

The balls were evenly spaced as they were circling underneath and then the balls started to make a wider circle and then they looked like they were going to move up into the underneath of the object.

The light turned green and we had to go so what ever happened after that I'm not sure. I wanted to just sit there and watch this thing till the end but my son was getting upset because we were going to be late for his basketball game. An hour later on our way home we kept our eyes on the sky but this object was gone.

I'm just thankful that I had other people with me who saw this because when I tell people they don't believe me, even my best friend thinks I'm cracked.

Then about a month or two ago I was reading an article in the Star Phoenix about crop circles being reported at farms just outside the city. They showed a picture of a crop circle where the crop was flattened by something in a counter clockwise motion.

As I was looking at the circle, and the size of the circle, to me it sounds like the object I seen could of made a crop circle like that. The way the metal balls were spinning idle very fast and then the way they were circling around the underneath of the object going in a counter clockwise direction and the magnetic force feeling people were having. I know there's no explanation for these crop circles but this could be one of them to take into consideration. 

I would like to thank you for giving me this opportunity to tell my story.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Ontario Brothers Have Close Encounter With UFO Above Them And Another In Front Of Their Car Ontario Canada

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date: Approxamtlty August 29, 1966

Time: Evening

I received a telephone call from a man by the name of Walter. He and his brother ended up having an unforgettable UFO experience in Ontario.

It was late August of 1966 and Walter said this is one of those haunting things that comes up from ones memory from the distant past. Walter said over the years he and his brother have had some discussion over certain aspects of the event. He also noted that the brothers never talked about the experience to anyone for about two or three years after the event took place.

They were quite reticent from openly speaking about it. When the men finally did start talking about it their story came in a fragmented way. Walter mentions that the differences in the brothers story were not actually the event itself, but rather the time sequence.

After the two fellows really dove into what took place, Walter's brother was convinced that they were coming to their summer residence and Walter was convinced they were leaving to go home.

Another important note to this is that they wondered if the date of the sighting was correct, but after Walter started checking around finally was able to make contact with the owner of the newspaper for that time period and he was able to recall the event because there were others who were witness to some unusual sightings on that same day.

Two reports were made and no explanation was found for what these witnesses reported. Also folks had reported seeing strange sights in the sky north of a small settlement along Highway 71 going from Corona to Fort Francis, Ontario.

The government dismissed the apparent phenomena as a large release of incandescent swamp gas, the owner of the newspaper told Walter. Walter of course thought this was pretty amazing swamp gas as it retained an ellipsoidal shape and paced the two brothers vehicle for a long distance as they traveled down the highway, plus it could ascend vertically at a tremendous rate of speed. As Walter said, he had a hard time with the swamp gas explanation!

Walter describes what exactly was witnessed:

There is a tourist camp at Caliper Lake which is located approximately seven to eight kilometers south from Nester Falls in northwestern Ontario. Their vehicle had just passed south of Caliper Lake. In the back seat of their car were the family pets they were taking back home.

The men had a large tabby cat by the name of Tiger, and a male bulldog by the name of Eric and last, but not least a nile monitor which was kept in a box as the cat and the monitor didn't get along all that well.

It is roughly 11:00 p.m. at night, the men heading south and they were passing Larson's Camp and noticed the lights still on at the camp. There was no other traffic on the highway at this time. Walter is in the passenger's seat and his brother is driving. Walter dozed off briefly and was awakened by his brother jabbing him telling him how bright it had become around the car.

The witness said there was an intense bright light which lit up the entire area. Walter said it was so bright that they were able to see way off the road and into the forest. Also he turned around to look out the back window of the vehicle and it was lit up as well.

As Walter is looking out the back, he can see the cat is sitting up close to the window very agitated, the dog is on the floor of the car moaning and the nile monitor has it's head out of the box with it's tongue working rapidly. The cat not bothering with it as it was hissing at something else.

Walter turned to his brother and said something had to be over top of the car. The speed at which they were traveling was about 60 miles an hour at that time. Also they had been listening to the radio when it started to get a lot of static. As the fellow told me, at that time of night one would be able to pick up a number of radio stations as the reception is much better than during the daytime hours.

They instantly tried other radio channels and all they heard from the different channels was static. Both men looking at one another in amazement, with a bright light sitting over top of them, the animals acting up in the car and now losing reception on the radio, they wondered what was going on!

Still traveling along the highway with an intense light above them, they were coming to a second hill, when in front of their vehicle, only about 200 to 400 meters away traveling over top the highway was a huge ellipse of white light.

This object in front of them was pacing them and not far off the highway's surface. The men guessed the second object was about 10 to 15 meters off the ground. It seemed that one object was above them and one object was in front of them.

Walter told me they were more curious than anything and sped up to see if they were able to catch up to the object in front of them, but as they did, the ellipse of white light stayed pretty much at the same distance away from their car. No matter how fast they drove, there was an equal distance between the object and vehicle.

Brian Vike's Note: The distance the event took place in was approximately 25 kilometers. The time everything started was at 11:00 p.m. The men came to an intersection/small community called Finland. They came off the high ground, curved around on the highway and dropped down onto a straight stretch in a low lying area which was about a kilometer in distance. 

While on the straight stretch the light in front of them ascended vertically at an incredible rate of speed. Walter said if he was to count to four the object had completely vanished from their sight. It went that fast. 

As the object in front of them disappeared so did the light above the car. Walter said it just winked out. There may have been a split second between the two objects disappearing. The static on the radio cleared and they were able to pick up the radio stations once again.

Another peculiar thing they found was that they were traveling through Finland at about midnight when they realized that it had just taken them about an hour to travel the 25 kilometers. Like Walter said, they didn't travel less than 80 to 90 kilometers an hour. He said there was a hiatus, something happened in that period of time.

What Walter and his brother find puzzling is the time, (an hour to drive the 25 kilometers) that they have no explanation for.

Where was the missing time?

Walter saw a friend and told her about what had gone on, and how nothing seemed to make sense. She offered to try a regression session with him to see if he was able to recall anything that took place that evening. 

He agreed to give this a try as he wanted answers if possible as he said his brother and he have been arguing for years about the absent piece of time and the actual going and coming issue they can't seem to agree on. One brother thought they were on their way home, and the other believes they were traveling in the other direction away from home.

Apparently, through the regression and during this event the brother driving did stop the car. The brothers could not recall this taking place as they always felt they continued traveling the highway and did not stop at any time. 

Both men after stopping the vehicle got out and walked off to the right side of the road. They stood looking upwards and observed the light that had been above their car move off and hover above the trees close by. 

Walter recalled seeing what appeared to be portholes along the side of the craft. They apparently stood there for a few minutes watching it. Walter also has been trying to encourage his brother to go through regression in hopes of getting some more parts to the puzzle. 

So far his brother has been reluctant to go through this procedure. Walter also doesn't recall been taken aboard the craft and it was not brought out in the regression session that this did take place. So another mystery, were the men taken or not ?

The regression took place in 92/93 and I, Brian Vike has telephoned the lady who preformed the regression and she told me that indeed the session did take place. Also Walter and the lady told me an audio tape of the session was recorded and we are trying to find this at this time.

I would also like to add that this gentleman who related this story to me, is a very credible man.

My deepest thanks to Walter for coming forward and telling his story.

Close Encounter With A Disc Shaped Craft/UFO Over Dayton Ohio (Telephone Interview/Graphic/Maps)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

You can listen to the interview I did with Jim over his sighting and some others he also related. Please click on the following link. https://jmp.sh/InUIj8e

Date: July 1982

Time: 6:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of objects: 1

Shape of objects: Disc.

Full Description of event/sighting: To whom it may concern, I have had three UFO sightings in my life, all of them being daylight sightings. One when I was around eight years old, another when I was around 35 years old, but the one that I will describe is by far the very best. At the age of 26, I am now 50 years old.

It's been a long time since I made this sighting, but have visited the site approximately every other year to keep it fresh in my memory. The sighting occurred in the summer (July?) of 1982, in Dayton, Ohio within an approximate radius of four miles from Wright Patterson AFB.

I had just pulled up to a local watering hole after work (Filthy McNasty's was the name of the establishment, believe it or not) with my best friend who I worked/carpooled with. I am a tool design engineer and he is a tool and die maker. From our work experience, we both are very well trained in regards to knowing the size of things big and small.

Filthy’s is located approximately 300 yards from the great Miami River and about 100 yards from Rip Rap Road which parallels the river and lies between itself and the river. It basically sits in the middle of an abandoned field, surrounded by flat farm fields and woods.

The time was approximately 6:00 p.m., the weather was good, with a clear blue sky, with little or no wind. A typical, hot, humid, stagnant, miserable summer day in Ohio. (Can you tell how much I like the weather in Ohio)?

As I was saying, we had just pulled up in the parking lot with the car facing west. We got out and started walking north for about 100 feet to the entrance, when something (a movement/reflection?) to our left (south) caught both of out eyes at the same time.

At a distance of 100 yards (I have measured this) and at approximate height of 200 feet (we had trees in the foreground very close to the road that I have measured the height of, by comparing the objects height to the height of the trees which I feel confident of the height estimate) was a dull gray metallic round object. It almost looked like something out of a 1950's bad Sci-Fi movie.

Two pie pans stacked facing each other with a streamlined "dome" on the top side only. The object was directly over the road and following it's course north at a speed of approximately 35 miles an hour. I have also measured this with myself standing in the exact spot and my friend driving the car on the road (and vice versa) at various speeds. We both picked the speed of 35 MPH.

The object was approximately 35 to 40 feet in diameter, I was a draftsman at the time, and had several size/angles of ellipse templates at work. So the following morning we stood at a distance of three feet from a wall which I had taped all of these templates to.

With the object of this being to pick out what we thought the object looked like. Not only the size, but the projected angle (share/profile). We both did this by ourselves, without knowing what size or shape the other had picked.

To my surprise we both picked the same shape, and more to my surprise, we were within approximately 10% of picking the same size. By using a little trigonometry and knowing a few measurements I calculated the size. So unless I am fundamentally wrong with how I did my calculations, I am very confident of the size that I estimate.

We also parked a Ford F-100 pickup out on the road and both of us stood in the "spot" and compared the size of the truck on the ground with the size of the object in the air. We both agreed that the object looked between two and three times the length of the truck, and so knowing the length of the truck, it fit really well with my calculations.

After we first spotted the object, it continued going north, at the same speed, following the path of the road. There were no erratic moments, no change in altitude, or any increase/decrease in speed. We both watched it for approximately 3 to 4 minutes until it was lost to sight in the haze a little above the horizon. After the object was lost to sight we went inside and discussed what we saw over a few cold beers.

What strikes me as odd, is that we didn't talk that much about it that night or after that. Maybe we were/are still dumbfounded by what we saw. This is not an exaggeration, if I saw a pickup truck at that height and distance, I wouldn't be able to tell you it's license plate number, but I damn sure could tell you what color, make and model it was.

There is one other thing that we both thought was very strange. There is a beach volleyball court in front of Filthy's and know more than 75 yards from the road. I would guess that there were between 15 and 20 people playing at the time. The net runs north and south, so half the people were facing east and the other half were facing west, and would have had an even closer view of the object than we did. I can see the half facing east missing it all together, but Ill be damned if I can figure out why no one player facing west spotted it.

We were both watching them for some reaction but there was not so much as a word said. We both were so dumbstruck that we just stood there with our jaws hanging on the ground and didn't raise the alarm to anyone. In fact we didn't say anything at all to each other the whole time except at the very beginning when I said, "What the hell is that !

To the best of my knowledge, all info contained in this statement is accurate and true. I know a fair amount about UFOs and the quality of the sighting/people.

So I have to tell you, this was a sweet one. No mysterious lights at night, and some moron wearing an Indian headdress claiming that he was whisked away to Venus (Maybe you've seen the film clips of this guy).

You have a multiple witness sighting, well trained, credible professionals.

You have a distance of no more than 125 yards away, with perfect viewing conditions.

I wouldn't have even reported this, except for the fact that it's been nagging at me for almost 25 years now. Maybe it will help me get rid of some of the nag. Plus, I like reading about sightings, so maybe someone will find this interesting and enjoyable. Thanks for listening.

In this interview Brian Vike talked with a fellow who gave a awesome description of the Black Triangle UFO he observed. The size of this clip is 67.9 mbs and it is 45 minutes in length.

Landed Flying Saucer With Greenish Haze Surrounding It At Scranton Pennsylvania

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  1968 - 1969

Brian Vike’s Note: I telephoned the lady who filed this report to me and we had a long and very nice conversation. She went onto tell me about a Black Triangle sighting she and her husband were witness to. This huge craft flew slowly over the road and above their vehicle.

Other people pulled their cars over and stopped on the road to watch this same craft. The lady, who's name is Judy also did a telephone interview with me for the radio show I host and this will be aired this coming Sunday, April 15, 2007.

So tune in, a very interesting report. Also I would like to make a request that if anyone knows of the a person holding these photos, or anyone who knows anything about this sighting would they please contact me here at brian_vike@telus.net

Hi, I don't know why I have ever reported this before, probably because I am not in touch with the student involved nor do I have the pictures. This happened in a community college English course where I was trying (as we teachers do) to drum up some interest in anything to a group of listless students.  So, I started talking about UFO's. 

I saw several boys in the back row poking one of their group and saying "tell her." So, I asked him and after some coaxing he told this amazing story:  His hobby was photography and he had a number of cameras. 

On this occasion he and some buddies had gone to visit his sister at her college near Wilkes Barre, Pa. (Having grown up in the Scranton area, I was familiar with the locale.)  As they were fooling around in the nearby woods they came upon a landed flying saucer.  As he had two cameras with him, one of which had a telephoto lens, he started taking pictures. Several of the other fellows started throwing rocks at it.  The rocks made a "ping" when they hit. 

They then became frightened and ran off.  When he came home he sent the pictures off to Eastman Kodak to be processed. These were color photos which he did not have the equipment to process.  Eastman Kodak returned on two or three of the shots with a letter explaining that such photos were routinely confiscated and if he wished further information he should contact the Dept. of Defense.  (His sister did so but got no response.) 

Anyway, I asked if I could see the pictures. He seemed reluctant, but he brought them in.  WOW.  The pictures showed very clearly an oval shaped "craft apparently of polished aluminum with a greenish haze around it. 

I have never to this day seen any pictures as clear cut or as close as this was. The student told me that the haze was actually blue to the sight but came out as green.  He took the pictures home. When several other teachers expressed interest, I asked him if he could bring them in again. 

He was obviously so uncomfortable that I apologized and dropped the subject. Unfortunately he dropped out of the class. I hope this incident was not the cause. I don't know whether this is  of any interest or not, but I can assure you that when I see the currently available pictures of UFOs  I have to laugh. This was the real thing.  (Retired English Professor, Suffolk Community College, Seldon, L.I.)  Currently living in N.Ft. Myers, Fl.

Additional Information:

Hi and thanks for your interest.  I would be happy to make a drawing but being an old lady (76) my knowledge of computer technology is elementary. I don't know how to send a picture, but the pictures were beautiful.

The "craft" was a slightly elongated egg or oval shape. The metallic surface, like polished aluminum or steel, was quite lovely. And the greenish haze that surrounded it was breathtaking. I do not recall any markings or detail. It was apparently resting on the ground, or very close to it. Yes, I would be glad to talk to you about the sighting or any other info I might have. 

I regret that I didn't report this at the time, but in that time period  there really weren't too many serious UFO students. If you are interested, my husband and I drove directly under one of the famous Hudson Valley craft that was written up by Hynek. 

My husband had a private pilot's license (and had been in the Naval Air Corps) and we can assure anyone that this was no extra-light plane.  I have followed the UFO scene over the years but just as an observer not as an active participant and certainly not as a groupie. Anyway, thanks for your kind interest and yes, I'd be happy to contribute whatever I can. Regards.

Thank you to Judy for the very interesting report and also for taking the time to speak to me on the telephone.

A Triangle UFO With Rounded Corners San Rafael California (Graphic)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  August 12, 2007

Time:  Approximately 11:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: San Rafael.

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1

Shape of objects: Triangle with rounded corners.

Full Description of event/sighting: My girlfriend "J" and I were watching the meteor shower last night on our rooftop patio in downtown San Rafael. We're about 20 miles north of San Francisco and it's a fairly urban area, so light pollution is fairly high. There was no moon, however, so we had a better view of the stars than usual.

We were stretched out on two lounge chairs, with a blanket over us. We weren't under the influence of any drugs, though I had finished about half a pint of Guinness. I had a mini mag light flashlight with me, and my binoculars. We weren't seeing many meteorites, so out of boredom I had been swinging the flashlight beam around into the sky in big sweeps.

I got up to go to the bathroom, and I got a few steps away when J started yelling "UFO!  UFO!" I started looking up and around and a couple seconds later I spotted a dark triangular shape with rounded corners moving quickly across the sky, from approximately north to south, more or less right above us. It had a small red circle in each corner, and was completely silent. 

I'd estimate that it was about the size of 2 or 3 full moons. I said "hand me the binoculars!, hand me the binoculars!" but was too dumbstruck to look away to grab them, even though J was holding them out to me (her eyes also locked on the triangle). 

I watched it for about 4 or 5 seconds until it disappeared in the haze of light pollution to the south.  I'd say it traveled about 1/8 of the full arc of the sky in the 4 or 5 seconds that I was able to visually track it.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

An Enormous Boomerang Shaped UFO With Many Red Flashing Lights Over San Diego California

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  November 13, 2007

Time:  8:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Overhead traveling West/ Northwest.

Number of witnesses: 5
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: V.

Full Description of event/sighting: I went out back to get a glimpse of Comet Holmes and the neighbors were all talking about something in the sky and a large number of flashing red lights. 

When I first looked up I was so disoriented that I thought fireworks or some type of celestial event was happening in the sky.  The lights took up such a large portion of the sky that my brain could not immediately conceptualize a single craft that could possibly contain this many lights.  

As I stood dumbfounded I realized that directly overhead was an enormous craft shaped more like a boomerang than a V with red lights blinking in what appeared to be a very irregular pattern. 

The lights flashed very quickly and sporadically back and forth on both wings in an almost confusing manner.  Clearly there was no fuselage of any kind.  It was a minimum of 3 if not 4 inches wide at arms length.  Probably more when it was directly over my head. 

I was in disbelief, (and still am) over the size, as we live in a flight path for San Diego airport and I see all manor of planes day and night.  I have never seen anything so big in the sky. 

It appeared to be silent, but I will admit that I also heard the neighbor point that out, so that could be the power of suggestion and not my own thought.  However, when he did point out that it didn't appear to be making any noise and it was passing overhead, I completely agreed with him.  It moved fairly slow as well. 

I was able to see it in the sky for over a minute and I clearly got out there after it had already approached my viewing spot.  I also heard my neighbor say that he had seen it earlier and clearly he was in disbelief as well and had no idea what it could be.

Thank you to the witness for an excellent sighting report.

A Close Encounter With Massive Triangular Shaped UFO And Missing Time Orleans Ontario

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  February 1998

Time:  7:15 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 6

Number of objects: 1?
Shape of objects: Triangular and round.

Full Description of event/sighting: It was a very cold day in February when my mother and I walked out of the Chiro's office and headed to the Giant Tiger across St-Joseph Blvd. to get a few items. It was about 6:45 p.m. at the time we entered the store. It only took us a maximum of 12 minutes in the store and so I figure it must have been around 7:00 p.m. the latest.

We crossed the street again to head back home when I noticed an amber coloured  oval object moving over the bank. I pointed it out to my mother who by this time was half freezing to death at the minus 30 temperature we were experiencing. She was quick to brush it off and said to we had to walk fast in order to warm up. But then, I noticed that the object was still.

I told my mom to stop walking for a second to make sure my eyes weren't playing tricks on me (and to confirm that she was also seeing the same thing) Low and behold, the object was as still as could be, not making a sound. We decided to keep walking since it was too darn cold to stick around.

The object followed us. When we stopped, it would stop. When we would move forward it would move forward...at one point it had gotten a little too far ahead of us and actually reversed itself to be in sync with us. (?) We passed a pizza place and a few stores until we came to a clearing between a house and a flower shop where it was darker because the glare of the street lights was faded by the heavy darkness that lay in behind the house.

As if things weren't bizarre enough already, it started a strange sequence of shape shifting. It changed from oval to round. Then split in two to make two round amber coloured shapes one staying still while the other dance with the tree. At about that time, two women came out of the house and one exclaimed to the other "Look at that!" but the other lady, disinterested, told her friend that they didn't have the time to fool around and they got in their car and left.

One thing I need to mention here is that while the craft was shape shifting, my mother and I were sort of in awe of the whole thing...so much so that the minus 30 degree weather didn't seem to bother us at all. In fact, we were as warm as can be. Anyway, we decided to head home since my brother, who was only 8 or 9 at the time, was home alone and we needed to get back quickly for fear that he may get scared if left alone for too long.

We started home and the craft seemed to have disappeared ? We cut through the parking lot of a low-roofed warehouse where we saw something that I will never forget. The orange glow of the streetlight lit the side of the hugest object I have ever seen in my life. It looked like this big black (tar) mass sitting maybe 30-50 feet above the roof of this warehouse.

It was so big that we couldn't see the other side of this thing. This massive triangular shape appeared to be moving very slowly ahead of us, directly over the townhouse project we lived in. Two men were on the other side of the street and saw the event...I never guessed they would have run away from it though. And at that moment, the most remarkable thing happened.

The object shifted upwards to show its full form and for the first time we actually heard noise...blue lights light up the entire triangle and electric blue sparks shot downward from either ends of the craft. I was amazed and terrified at the same time. It still evokes strong feelings just thinking about it.

The object seemed to have disappeared once more, only to reappear a quarter of a mile further as a reddish-blue light swishing back and forth in the night sky. We continued home which was literally across the street by that time and realized that we were warm. My brother opened the door with a very worried look on his face. "Where were you mom? You were gone for so long! Where were you?"

My mother and I looked at each other and then at my brother, perplexed. My mother said: "We've only been gone about half an hour" I quickly took off my winter boots and walked to the kitchen to look at the time on the wall clock. "Mom, it's 9:30 p.m. how is that possible?"

Ever since that day, we have strived to explain the time loss but we really can't come up with anything that would make sense.

I had an appointment at the Chiro's office for 6:30 p.m. We left the office at 6:45p.m. went to the store across the street and were out by 7:00 p.m. the latest. From that particular store back to our house was only a 20 minute walk...given the fact that we stood still for a little while we'll add 20 minutes just to be sure ( actually, it only felt like 10-15 minutes altogether) So, technically we should have arrived home at 7:40 p.m.

Surely, we would have noticed if we were outside in minus 30 degree weather for a total of 2 1/2 hours. We would have had frostbite or something

Thank you to the witness for the amazing report.

UFO Lands/Alien Beings At Connersville Indiana (Written Report/Audio Report)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

In the audio interview, detail is provided about what was seen by the eyewitness. (Audio Below) https://jmp.sh/b50iN0F

Note from Brian Vike – I typed up some of what was taking place from the audio interview, but there is a lot more that was going on in the area. This can be heard on the audio.

Date:  1973

Brian Vike spoke to a lady by the name of Barb, (Barb is not the ladies real name) who related information about a UFO which had landed. The information came from family members.

Here is how the lady I spoke to found out about this UFO incident we are talking about in this report. She went over to her cousins, Donald Wagner’s home which was in Connersville, Indiana.

She walked up to the house and entered to see a woman sitting on the couch crying. Barb asked Donald, what was the matter with the lady who was crying, Donald said, you didn’t hear about what took place last night, of course she said no.

Donald went on to tell Barb that the lady was upset because the military had taken her husband, along with another man for investigation and were not going to release them for a couple of weeks, this had the women very upset as you can imagine.

Barb wondered what happened and why the  military would be involved.

Barb was told that last night a UFO landed in a factory’s parking lot. The craft landed between work shifts, which had workers coming and going from the factory, and they were all dumbfounded as to what they were witnessing.

Barb was told the police arrived and saw this, plus the many employees at the plant. Everyone continued to watch what was unfolding when two alien beings (aliens described as having almond shaped eyes and pear shape head) were observed floating towards two men.

One man fainted, and the other man seemed to be some how communicating with the alien being. Then this man (this was the husband of the lady who was so upset) bent down, picked up his buddy who had fainted and carried him into the UFO, following the two beings.

Barb was told the two men were in the UFO craft for a short period, while the UFO was still on the ground, then later the two men were seen coming out of the craft, but one was still carrying the other.

At this point of the conversation I had with Barb, she said the other part of the story she got was, the military stepped in after the UFO had left, took the two men into custody for observation. Barb said that was all she knew at this point.

Now the next day (Barb told me she was going through a divorce and that she was hiding out from her husband with her two children as he was not a very nice man) she went to her mother-in-laws or sister-in-laws, I could not quite make out who it was, but they were very good friends and Barb told her what it was she heard. Then all of a sudden, this close friend said, do I have a story for you!

There is a lot more you have to hear on this audio report. This entire conversation, or what I was told is nothing short of amazing.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

 Thank you to UFOINFO for sending the case to me for additional follow up. Thank you John !

Bright Light With Two Triangles Attached To The Bottom Over Parry Sound Ontario


Date:  March 22, 2017
Time: Approximately 10:30 p.m.

I saw what looked like maybe the North Star or a comet except it was bright orange tinge near Parry Sound at about 10:30 p.m. March 22, 2017. I took out some binoculars and I saw two bright triangles, attached at the bottom, both narrow and pointing upwards.

They had an outline, not just 3 lights, like 60*, 30* 60* degrees. They seemed to change shape and add lights. At one point there was 5 lights.

The object was far in the distance, but it seemed to hover. It went brighter before heading up in the sky and then it reversed course and flew across the skyline, towards me but off to the east.

It flew above me (and to the east) and as it did it sounded a bit like a plane. It could've been a plane, but it wasn't a commercial flight. It could've been a military craft, just some guy flying his plane erratically at 10: 30 p.m. or possibly a UFO.

Thank you to the witness for their report.
