1930’s UFO Sighting Two Balls Of Fire Confederation Park Burnaby British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Late 1930s

Time:  Summer afternoon.

Location of Sighting: Confederation Park, Burnaby, B.C.

Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Round balls of fire.

Full Description of event/sighting: A friend who is in his late 70s told me this story today. He said that when he was 10 or 11 years old, he and two friends (now deceased) were playing in the bush in Confederation Park in Burnaby, that would make it the summer of 1937 or 1938.

He said he and his friends heard a roaring sound and he ran out of the trees to Willingdon Avenue and saw two streaks of smoke in the sky coming from the east parallel to the ground and at a fairly low altitude. As the smoke trails got closer he saw two round balls of fire at the head of the trails.

Suddenly the two fireballs roared like a rocket straight up at a ninety degree angle and disappeared into a clear blue sky. He said that today he would compare them to jets, but of course there were no jets back then. He still remembers the incident even after the amount of time that has transpired.

Thank you to the person for relating the sighting to me.

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.

Triangular Formation Of Bright Oval Shaped Lights Clovis California

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  February 1995

Time:  Approximately 10:30 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Along CA Hwy 168, 20 miles E of Clovis, CA.

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 6
Shape of objects: Oval-shaped lights, very white.

Full Description of event/sighting: Hello, Brian. I reported a UFO sighting to you some time ago about a sighting on 6 Sep 1982 in Auberry, CA. Since then I have had another UFO sighting.

It was in Feb of 1995, but I can't remember the exact date (unusual for a history major). I was returning home from a Wednesday night class (grad school) at CSU Fresno, and had pulled over on Highway 168 to let a couple of cars go by. I checked to see if there was no traffic, and then just looked up, and saw a formation of lights.

Each was oval-shaped, and very white. The best analogy I can give is the brightest white lights at a baseball or football stadium, but these were brighter. There were six of them in a triangular formation.

One at the apex, then two right behind, and then three at the base. I turned off the car to see if there was no sound, and there was none. I didn't remove the key so the lights and clock would still work and noted the time-10:30 p.m. (PST). The formation was several hundred feet above, and each light was about the size of a dime held at arm's length.

The formation was flying in a N to S direction, and the whole sighting took about 2 minutes. I noted the time when I restarted the car as 10:32. When I got home at 10:55, I asked my grandmother (now deceased) if she'd heard any unusual scanner traffic on either the Fresno County Sheriff or California Highway Patrol channels, and she said no. And there was nothing on any of the Fresno TV stations' 11 PM newscasts that I can recall.

I don't know what these were, but they were not F-16s from Fresno ANG Base, or F/A-18s from NAS Lemoore, nor any kind of commercial aircraft. Weather was clear and cool (about 45 or 50 F)

There was no interference with the car's engine or lights before I turned the ignition off, and it started up again normally. If you need more info, feel free to contact me at the above e-mail address, and I will get back to you.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

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.

A 1920’s UFO Sighting Chippewa Falls Wisconsin

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  1920

Time:  Afternoon

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Light - round.

Brian Vike’s Note: I have removed the names of the people who witnessed the sighting to protect their identity.

Full Description of event/sighting: My grandfather who is 92 and still alive (March 2007) in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin, told me recently about his childhood UFO sighting.  

Funny thing is, as a child I spent an enormous amount of time with his mother, my great-grandmother. (originally from Canada), and she also told me the same story when I was a little girl. I did not understand as a little child that  my grandfather had been the son who was with her at the time of the sighting.

One day Gramma and her son, who was a young boy of perhaps 6-10 years, were walking in a neighborhood known as Garden Acres, in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. It was still daylight, afternoon, when they saw a light in the sky. Airplanes did not fly overhead back in those days, so it was very unusual to see moving lights in the sky.

The light moved along horizontally as they watched it, then it suddenly shot upward and quickly disappeared from view.

Great-grandma told her son to never tell anyone what they had seen because people would think they were crazy in the head.

That's the whole story. In all of my 46 years, I have never known my grandfather to lie or exaggerate, nor to tell stories or  believe in fantastical things.  My great-grandmother, too, was a trustworthy witness not given to fantasy or exaggeration.

Thank you to the family member for relating this very interesting sighting.

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.
