Come to the story circle, children.
1:56
Children. Yes. Everybody. Yeah, but
1:58
it's about children. It is. is without
2:01
them chillin'. This is a pretty famous site.
2:03
I'm actually, I'm not surprised you haven't heard
2:05
of it because it's like, well I've heard
2:07
of it now. Now you've heard of it. It's
2:09
like between well known and like on
2:12
the cusp. I feel like you know the alien stuff, you
2:14
know the story. I am
2:16
curious, let us know after you listen to
2:18
this episode if you already hadn't known about
2:20
it or not. It'll be interesting to
2:22
see. Last podcast. We still haven't done raw as
2:24
well, I'm just saying. That's true.
2:27
Well, it'll be like you, put it like
2:29
that. It'll be our 10 year anniversary and
2:31
we'll do something like Bigfoot or
2:33
Roswell. Bigfoot? I don't know if we'll
2:36
ever do specifically just Bigfoot. Yeah, just
2:38
it's like off brand, great value, Louisiana
2:40
cousins. I'm sorry, I could say like.
2:43
Do you mean Louisiana, heartfeltly? Oh yeah.
2:45
Because of the Honey Island swanmars. It
2:47
could be like the
2:49
Pacific Northwest Bigfoot. That could be an
2:52
episode. The P&Dubs? Yeah. So
2:54
before we start today, some of our
2:56
sources are the National Library of Medicine,
2:59
Vice, and IFLS.
3:04
IFLS? Yes, I
3:06
love science. Is the? Website,
3:09
no. So this
3:11
takes place. In Africa. Zimbabwe, you
3:13
might say. You could say
3:15
that. I think the city is Ruba. I
3:18
think that's why it's called the Ruba incident. This
3:20
is very rural, this takes place. Okay.
3:23
This is in the country. I don't know anything about, the
3:25
only thing I know about Zimbabwe, the only reason I knew
3:28
it existed as a child was in
3:31
Metal Gear when Snake is fighting Gray
3:33
Fox, who's like the ninja in that
3:35
game. Yeah. I talked, no, that's
3:37
a lie. I don't even think it's Zimbabwe. I think it was
3:39
Zanzibar. Nevermind. I don't know why I
3:41
know it's Zimbabwe. Zanzibar is a tropical island, right? It's
3:44
because I'm an adult now. That's why I know it
3:46
exists. Yeah. Different Z. Please,
3:48
I have a connection to Zimbabwe, but I
3:50
don't remember where it is either. It's not
3:52
that meaningful. Were you there this? No. I
3:55
was around the age of these children. I was
3:57
like two. Yeah.
4:00
or three at the time, I was young. They
4:02
were young too. Yeah, they were in elementary school
4:04
though. They were gifted too. I
4:07
don't know if they were gifted, but they were
4:09
gifted. They
4:11
were financially gifted. That's right. The children in
4:13
the school and the country of Zimbabwe had
4:15
their lives changed in 1994. Now
4:18
the aerial school was a normal
4:21
elementary school in Rua, a
4:23
rural area of the country in Africa that
4:26
only had 62 students at the time.
4:30
The whole class was 62. The
4:32
class or the school? The whole school, I
4:34
apologize. The whole school only had 62 children.
4:37
I was gonna say, you're coming from like inner city Cleveland,
4:39
so when you say only 62, you
4:42
know, my classes were like 16. So
4:45
for you, you might have been, yeah. In
4:48
elementary school. I had so many, there were so many
4:50
kids in my school. There were hundreds.
4:53
Yeah. It was a mad house. Wait,
4:55
hundreds in one class? No, well, no. No,
5:00
no. The entire class would be roll call.
5:03
It'd be like, all right, what name's start?
5:05
Zach, and then here, ding, ding, ding, ding,
5:07
ding. It's like, all right, class over. Yeah,
5:10
no, I mean, there'd probably be
5:12
like 32 in my third grade
5:14
class. Okay. But it doesn't matter.
5:16
Yeah, you're right. I'm going on a tangent. But
5:18
something happened here at this
5:21
normal place in front of these children
5:23
that may have been one of the
5:25
most significant events in UFO history. That's
5:27
a big claim. It
5:30
is, well, this is pretty potent. The
5:32
school year had really just started, and
5:34
the children began getting into the boring routine of
5:36
school life. But on
5:39
September 16th, the students of the aerial
5:41
school started to notice something
5:44
out of the ordinary when they're on their morning
5:46
break. They're all out in the play yard,
5:49
the whole like fenced in area around the school. And
5:51
the children were playing outside when the teachers
5:54
were inside there doing a faculty meeting. Wait,
5:56
there was no supervision? No, there was not.
5:58
This was 19. 94 I Feel
6:02
like that's a big part of this is
6:04
because there is no supervision Wow They
6:06
were out there trading stocks and talking about
6:08
what the next Audi they were gonna buy
6:11
But teachers no no the kids
6:14
teachers pie won't make it that much. No, they
6:16
didn't have Audi money They have like Fisher price
6:18
out. Yeah, Tonka. No, but you're
6:20
right the kids were like talking about,
6:22
you know financial dividends Mm-hmm. Yes, but
6:25
that's what a few students noticed. They saw a
6:28
flat shiny disc fly
6:30
in from the sky in the
6:32
sunlight and land on
6:35
a very close Hill but
6:38
that's when several children ran to the edge of
6:40
the school property into the border and From
6:43
this distance they could see that the disc was was
6:46
very close. Maybe Maybe
6:48
only like 20 feet. It was very
6:50
close from the board of the school
6:52
and from
6:55
this disc They
6:57
saw something emerge They
7:00
saw figures Coming out
7:02
of the craft going onto the hill
7:05
The children said that they were only in the area
7:07
for like 15 minutes. It was very quick they
7:10
came down landed came out as only 15 minutes and
7:14
They left as quickly as they come
7:17
So they landed walked around
7:19
observed got back in the ship and took
7:21
right off They
7:23
told all the children told
7:25
the teachers about what they saw They
7:28
did not necessarily believe them. No But
7:31
that's not where it stopped the children came
7:34
home that night and they all
7:36
told their parents the same thing the
7:38
same story and this In
7:41
turn launched an investigation in the UFO
7:43
community because the the
7:45
parents started talking to you the
7:48
press Mmm about the children
7:50
saw aliens. I bet the
7:52
press were so excited to have this news
7:54
I think so. There's not much like
7:57
you hear one parent say and you're like, oh, that's
7:59
weird and then and you start hearing more parents come out
8:01
and say it? Yeah, yeah, let me get
8:03
into it later. That's one of the
8:05
things that makes this so compelling. It's
8:07
like, imagine the aliens coming down, and
8:10
they're like, ah, this is Earth. Let's see what it's
8:12
like. And they're like, oh my god,
8:14
they keep their children in cages. This
8:17
is so, we gotta get outta here. And the
8:19
heat, oh boy. Yeah, I
8:21
don't know what they're doing. Sounds like they turned around.
8:23
Like, you know when you get off on the side
8:25
of the, like, you made a wrong turn, and
8:28
then you get off the side of the road, and you're like,
8:30
ah, you stretch your legs for a minute? You're like, I gotta get
8:32
going outta here. Earth was just a wrong turn. So
8:35
when the local UFO reporter came in,
8:38
she asked the children to draw what they saw.
8:41
And the strange thing is, they
8:43
were all really consistent in
8:45
their drawings. They all drew the same silver
8:47
disc, and they all drew what
8:50
people would consider the classic
8:52
gray alien. Like the bulbous
8:54
head, little body, big eyes.
8:57
One child said, quote, it looked
8:59
like it was glinting in the trees. It
9:01
looked like a disc, like a brown disc.
9:03
And another one said, I saw
9:06
something silver on the ground amongst the trees,
9:08
and a person in black. The
9:10
children that went to this
9:13
small school had a variety of backgrounds, but
9:15
they all have one thing in common, and that
9:17
was money, as
9:19
the tuition for the school was substantial. Now,
9:22
Cindy Hind believed the children,
9:25
and that's the ufologist, yes. But
9:27
she also realized that some of the
9:29
children, from more traditional Zimbabwean backgrounds, some
9:33
of their stories to be not alien,
9:35
but something that they
9:37
consider more to their
9:39
culture. She said that, quote, the children said
9:41
that the figures could have
9:43
been the via komumbapu,
9:46
which are spirits of
9:48
humans raised by
9:51
magic. Like not raised
9:53
like familiar, but raised like, raised like from
9:55
the dead. Or it could have been a
9:57
tokuloshii. or
10:01
an evil goblin of the
10:03
local native folklore that are said
10:05
to suck the solar blood from
10:07
people. And went to Renner Center
10:09
and grabbed a spaceship real quick. Who
10:11
knows, I guess so. They're kids, sorry. Yeah,
10:13
they're kids. So obviously
10:15
aliens make more sense. Well,
10:18
I wonder what the parents, like the
10:20
parents probably think they're making it up, or not
10:22
making it up, but the parents, the teachers, you
10:24
know, they're probably like, oh, there's probably a rational
10:27
explanation. But I wonder what they
10:29
think, if they don't think they're just making
10:31
it up, what they think they could have
10:33
actually have seen. Yeah, well that's part of
10:35
the problem, is that there's so many kids
10:37
that are all reporting the exact same thing.
10:39
Yeah, so if it's not
10:41
aliens, like what could it be? Yeah,
10:43
like what would be the most, if
10:45
you don't believe in aliens, if you're,
10:47
you know, logical, what would you say
10:50
that they saw? My guess, I
10:53
would guess UFO, no, that's right. Oh,
10:55
that's cool. Well, it's gotta be an alien. If
10:58
it's not a UFO, then it
11:00
would be maybe military.
11:04
But who's military, I guess,
11:06
because it's overseas,
11:09
maybe, I don't think it'd be America. And
11:11
then what's the creature they're seeing? Some
11:13
kind of suit? They just
11:16
got, it's like a brand new silver
11:18
Toyota Tundra, never seen one before.
11:20
Dude, and a hazmat suit coming out. Toyota
11:23
Tundra that flew in from the sky, it
11:26
fell. They dropped it from the
11:28
shipment in an airplane. It
11:30
just drove off after. Yeah, it was like
11:33
a stunt scene
11:35
where they drive out of the
11:37
airplane. That's
11:39
pretty cool, I'd watch that. Tom
11:42
Cruise, he's around 94. Yeah, was he?
11:45
I don't know. He was, yeah. So
11:47
Cynthia believed that these different interpretations, accompanied
11:50
by similar drawings and descriptions,
11:53
gave more credibility to the idea that the
11:55
children had all
11:57
seen a similar event, which makes
11:59
sense. There's a lot of witnesses, they're all
12:01
saying the same thing. I guess
12:03
the only criticism there is that they are children. So
12:07
does that make them most credible? It's
12:09
the idea that there's multiple children maybe.
12:11
Yeah. I think the
12:13
most credible thing to me is
12:16
the fact that they all described it and
12:18
drew it the same. Because
12:20
even if you get like
12:22
15 adults together, you
12:25
can kind of like someone can lead it and say, they're
12:27
going to ask us this, this is what we say. When
12:29
they ask us to do this, somebody
12:32
organizes it. I
12:34
don't think, it's hard for me
12:37
to imagine perfectly these kids organizing that.
12:39
I could see kids being like, oh
12:41
let's tell these. Let's tell a lie. Yeah,
12:44
for fun. Let's see how far we can take this thing. Yeah.
12:47
And maybe they did say, well what are we going to say? Maybe
12:50
it was, but I don't know if that's not
12:52
fun. I'm not sure about that. But
12:56
the incident did attract the attention of
12:58
Harvard professor John Mack. So
13:00
he came later in the,
13:02
it was probably a couple months later where he came
13:05
down finally. But this is where
13:07
the investigation, his interviews became
13:09
a little bit more, I'd say
13:12
suspicious. Just because
13:14
it was so long and the children
13:16
never mentioned this before, but during his
13:18
interviews, that's when the children
13:20
started saying that they all received a
13:23
telepathic message during
13:25
the 15 minute visit. So
13:28
they're adding to the story. Yes.
13:30
They're yes-anding. Yeah, I think they
13:32
are yes-anding to this John Mack's
13:34
questions. And they're all, to
13:38
their credit, they all did give the same message,
13:41
was that the aliens telepathically
13:44
told them that the environment
13:46
is very
13:48
precious and we need to take care of it. They're
13:52
looking at the youth, like it's too late to
13:54
save the adults. They're stuck in their ways. And
13:58
the kids are like, but you have a toy or something? I'm gonna tell
14:00
you that, shut up. It
14:03
gets 14 miles to the gallon, that's
14:05
plenty. I
14:07
am suspicious of this, I am dubious of this
14:09
kind of advice for aliens,
14:12
because I think it's kind of a, if
14:15
it truly is what happened, right, I
14:17
think it's kind of a
14:19
red flag, or a facade. It's
14:23
in line with the belief system if
14:25
you think that nuclear weapons attracted aliens
14:28
to Earth. If you look at nuclear
14:30
testing in the 40s, and
14:32
then all of the UFO sightings that kind of
14:34
took place around that time, and people draw that
14:36
connection, in that case, then it
14:38
doesn't, if you believe that, so I don't
14:40
think it's out of the
14:42
realm of possibility to think an alien would come with a
14:44
message of like, hey, maybe y'all should stop doing that. Like,
14:47
where's Bob Wayne? If
14:50
they're benevolent, I think
14:52
that's fair. I don't necessarily think
14:55
aliens typically are benevolent. I
14:57
think they are menacing. Maybe
15:00
they're trying to reverse psychology. And
15:03
then the kids are like, you know, the
15:05
problem is he went a little too young. He
15:07
needed to go to like 14 year olds, 15 year olds,
15:09
and then they threw everything back at him. What
15:12
about the environment? How's
15:15
your plan to do it, huh? Why
15:17
are you leaving? But
15:19
they would just not listen, they would destroy it. Just
15:21
to spite the aliens. So they have the
15:25
children, most of them, have
15:27
all pretty much stuck to the same story
15:31
ever since. Not many of them have
15:33
wevered. But now I want to look
15:35
at maybe some explanations for what
15:37
happened. So
15:42
the first explanation we have is
15:44
the theory of mass hysteria. We've
15:47
talked about this before in other episodes. Phoenix
15:50
lights, I believe, was one. Yeah, definitely.
15:52
There's a couple other ones. But the
15:54
theory is basically that one kid said,
15:56
hey, what's that? And
15:59
then they all really are saying this. thing like oh it's
16:01
an alien and they saw
16:06
the alien on the hill right so that's
16:08
the idea behind this massive stereo. So
16:10
they call kind of take this idea and run with it. The other
16:14
explanation is actually really similar it
16:17
just kind of pinpoints who it is and
16:20
quote this
16:22
theory is what if this
16:24
one guy made it up and that
16:26
was posited by vice. Was what? What if
16:28
this one guy made
16:31
it up? No what did you say after
16:33
that? It was posited by vice.
16:35
What do you mean positive? Put
16:37
out there. Posited by vice. Vice
16:40
the news source. Oh
16:43
okay I see okay vice
16:46
threw this out there. Yes okay the
16:48
news source vice said okay the one
16:50
guy. I was like I
16:52
swear I know English okay okay
16:55
I got you I mean so but that is it
16:57
one person made it up and the
17:00
other ones believed him or one person made it
17:02
up and they all agreed to buy into a
17:04
one person made it up or two
17:06
people in this case and
17:08
they all believed him
17:10
and they grew on it. So
17:13
it also is kind of that massive stereo.
17:15
So that's the main
17:17
explanation for this. Probably a little conformity to like
17:19
you don't want to be the one student that
17:22
is left out yeah like I don't want all
17:24
my classmates to have seen an alien and I
17:26
didn't so I guess you know maybe I guess
17:28
I saw something or like like
17:31
they all saying they saw this disc on the hill but
17:33
you're like that's definitely a Toyota Tundra?
17:35
Tundra. That was but they said it was like
17:37
20 feet away like it's not like it was
17:39
you know 300 yards right it was
17:42
close. If it was like far away and
17:45
they couldn't perfectly make it out 20 feet
17:48
mm-hmm but I got some quotes from
17:50
this article about what happened because what
17:52
really happened because this guy he came
17:54
out and he he said like I
17:56
made this up his name is Dallin
17:58
so the ones One student from
18:00
the class, Dallin, he stated, quote, no,
18:03
I didn't see UFO, I made up the
18:05
whole thing. So he's claimed that
18:07
he's the one that said, that's a
18:10
spaceship. And he said that he and his friend came
18:12
up with this idea and they never thought
18:14
it was going to work, but they wanted to
18:16
get out of class. Dallin said that
18:19
he began pointing to a rock and that
18:21
it was shining in the sun, and he
18:23
said, quote, there's a spaceship,
18:26
there's an alien. Now, within
18:28
a half an hour, all the kids were talking
18:31
about it, and all the kids were
18:33
running around and the whole school was
18:35
buzzing, which is what his goal
18:37
was, he wanted this. Now,
18:40
it's like one step above one of those assembly
18:42
meetings where you get out of class. Yeah, yeah,
18:44
that's the idea, is he wanted to get out
18:46
of class. I gotta be
18:48
very honest with you, just imagining kids,
18:52
yeah, hearing that story, yeah, it's
18:55
not bad, it's not bad. There
18:57
are a limited number of kids, like 62 is
19:00
not a lot for the whole school. So the
19:02
whole school was on break, it was like one
19:04
grade. It was the whole school out there. Yeah,
19:06
because they had no faculty meeting. Are there any
19:09
cameras in 94? There
19:12
were VHS cameras, no,
19:14
there weren't any cameras on property, but you know
19:16
what's funny though, you can see, there are interviews,
19:19
like people interviewing the children after this happened, which
19:22
is pretty interesting to hear that. On camera. Yeah,
19:25
like a news camera, yeah. It's
19:28
not as simple as Dallin made
19:31
it up because there are witnesses
19:33
who are convinced. Like
19:35
one witness said, quote, they
19:37
had huge eyes that you cannot
19:40
look towards. And once
19:42
we got that eye connection, everything
19:44
else around us just disappeared. That's
19:48
when I started feeling the message, the
19:50
idea that just came over me into
19:53
my being. It wasn't talking, it
19:55
was telepathic. It was just
19:58
a feeling, this overwhelming feeling of how
20:00
important the environment is. And
20:02
she continued, she said, quote, it didn't touch
20:05
me physically, but it felt
20:07
like with that stare, it touched every
20:09
ounce of my body. So both these
20:11
girls, Emma and Selma, they
20:13
both experienced this
20:16
connection with the aliens, this telepathic connection,
20:19
and they both felt it. They both felt the same
20:21
message. Selma said, quote, we need to
20:24
clean the air, beautiful plants, clean
20:26
soil to be able to live and thrive.
20:29
That's the message that they got from this alien. It
20:31
was Al Gore in the Toyota Country.
20:35
It was a megaphone. Hey
20:38
guys, please, I'm super
20:40
cereal. I
20:43
don't know why he was, he was starting his thing in Zimbabwe in
20:45
the 90s. Al Gore was,
20:47
you know, who knows? But John Mack, the Harvard
20:49
professor, the guy we talked about, he,
20:51
quote, unequivocally believed the children after
20:53
his trip to Africa, and
20:56
considered the aerial school setting one of
20:58
the most credible settings ever. Most
21:00
of the kids still believed, and
21:03
they were convinced of what they saw, even
21:05
though Dallin was pretty
21:07
convinced that he said, I made
21:09
it up. Well that could also be him not
21:13
wanting his name tied to this anymore. I
21:16
don't know what kind of ridicule these people might be facing,
21:18
if any. Who knows? I mean, I don't know how many
21:20
people know the names of the kids,
21:22
but maybe he just, I wanna distance
21:24
myself from this experience. I
21:27
don't wanna be known as the alien kid.
21:30
That could be it too. But two
21:32
more witnesses, two brothers. They said that
21:34
people over the years tried to discriminate
21:36
their experiences or convince them
21:38
that what they saw wasn't real. Tafu,
21:41
one of the brothers, said, quote, it
21:43
definitely was not a rock. I know
21:45
what a rock looks like. On the lower
21:47
half of it, there were lights. And
21:49
his brother, Tafu's brother, said, he saw
21:51
the being, and it terrified him. It
21:54
was short, had long arms, and
21:56
it was greenish with an overall-shaped
21:59
head. Now, again, Dallin
22:01
is convinced he is
22:03
an outlier amongst the 62, and he
22:05
says that his former schoolmates were duped,
22:08
or maybe they truly believed what they'd seen,
22:10
but I'm sorry to tell you that it
22:12
never happened. They're lying to themselves."
22:16
Yeah. So those are
22:19
some of the explanations for what
22:21
happens. Really it's mass hysteria mixed
22:23
with either true belief
22:25
or some kind of trick. It's
22:28
like a social experiment. Yeah. It
22:31
really is. So now we're going to
22:33
move on to some other sightings
22:35
in Africa of UFOs. Charlie,

25:03
So these stories all come from Art Angle. Art
25:06
Angle? Art Angle. UK. Cool. Just
25:08
some UFO sightings out there in
25:10
Africa? Yeah. Yeah. Well, they're all
25:12
based in South Africa. Okay. In
25:15
the south vicinity. The
25:17
first story is from Cynthia
25:19
Hind. Oh, okay. Should be familiar. Good connection
25:21
there. Yeah. But this one takes a couple
25:23
of years later. In November 1996, she
25:26
said she went to Vidura,
25:29
90 kilometers from Pahara. She
25:32
went there to interview a 17-year-old
25:34
boy named Lloyd. And
25:36
he was a student at secondary
25:39
school, like high school. And
25:41
he was studying for his zero levels. I
25:43
have no idea what that means. But this
25:45
is what he told Cynthia. He said quote,
25:47
between 1 and 1.30 on March 6th, his
25:50
birthday, Tyler. 19 six.
25:53
Uh, four. He woke up and
25:56
because he knew it would be quiet at that
25:58
hour, he decided to do some. studying for his
26:00
exams, 1.30 in the morning.
26:02
I feel that. And
26:05
while he was engaged in his studies,
26:07
he heard a clicking sound, not
26:10
unlike a telephone dialing, except there was
26:12
no telephones in this area. It
26:15
continued for several minutes. So Lloyd
26:17
decided to check out what it could be.
26:20
He opened the front door and looked outside.
26:22
He could hear the sound coming from up
26:24
the road. When he glanced in
26:26
that direction, he witnessed something very strange. He
26:29
quickly went outside and hid
26:31
behind a hedge to get a better view. He was
26:34
able to observe a small figure about
26:37
one meter high with a head
26:39
like a rugby ball dressed all
26:41
in white overalls. On the
26:43
back of the creature, it had a small
26:45
satchel attached to it, which
26:48
was an aerial with a flashing red
26:50
light. Lloyd was terrified. He
26:53
said he escaped with fear and
26:55
ran back into the house and he jumped
26:58
into bed and covered himself with blankets. Now
27:00
he didn't really sleep, he slept fitfully for the rest
27:03
of the night because of this. At six
27:05
in the morning, the next morning, he
27:07
went back to look where the creature had been,
27:09
where he saw walking and found
27:11
several footprints, which he could
27:13
not identify, which he attributed to
27:16
the creature. When he arrived at school,
27:18
he told his friends about seeing
27:20
a ghost of the night, but one
27:22
of his friends suggested that it was a UFO
27:24
and Lloyd is now under the impression that the
27:26
creature had been called
27:29
a UFO. It's close,
27:31
he's close. Yeah, I didn't know
27:33
what he passed that test. There's
27:35
no way. He needed his
27:38
parents to write a note. Yeah. Sorry,
27:40
my son experienced something extraterrestrial. Can he
27:42
please take the test tomorrow? Wait, it's
27:44
all an alien. Can he have a
27:46
sick day please? Yeah. So
27:48
the next story. Now this person wrote
27:51
into Ariel and she wrote her story
27:53
out. She said quote, she wrote into
27:55
the school. No, she wrote into the
27:58
website, Ariel. Art
28:00
art yeah Ariel is the school my
28:02
bad. That's the area. Yeah, you say
28:04
art angle So this person
28:07
wrote into art angle and she told her
28:09
story about this extraterrestrial and she
28:11
said quote My name is Joanna
28:14
and I far near Feathers
28:16
drop 150 miles from Harhara.
28:18
I am 31 years old down February 5th
28:22
1996 I woke up from a bad dream
28:24
just after midnight When I heard
28:26
a car go past I got
28:28
up and looked out the bedroom window which
28:30
faces the front of the farm I Watched
28:33
as two cars pass each other a strange
28:36
sight as they're usually few vehicles to
28:38
be seen and None
28:40
at night one car pulled
28:43
into my gate and I immediately thought
28:45
oh No, these guys
28:47
are coming to pitch my new engine on
28:49
the on the on the borehole On
28:53
the borehole, I don't know
28:55
what borehole is I assumed some sort of
28:57
farming equipment No, I've never I didn't play
28:59
a farm bill I wrote my eyes
29:01
and face to make sure I wasn't so asleep and
29:04
I looked at the car again And it
29:06
was long and wide and made a low humming
29:08
sound I could see lights from the back
29:10
a few red lights and Front
29:13
light which shown high enough to illuminate the
29:15
tree stops the car or
29:17
object Stops in my gate for
29:19
a good 30 seconds and then
29:21
drove on as if the gate had been Opened
29:24
and that was it. It was gone I
29:27
took my torch my rifle and
29:29
my for farm working dogs
29:32
and we went out to the gate Despite the
29:34
fact it had just rained There
29:36
were no tire tracks or human tracks
29:39
on the road. We approached the gate I
29:41
could feel heat coming from the surface of the road
29:44
a really aggressive heat Rating from the
29:46
ground even my ears felt flush with
29:48
heat from the ground and I was
29:50
soaked with precipitation It was not 1230
29:52
in the morning by now and we
29:54
found nothing further and I went back home Was
29:57
it precipitation from rain or the summer? It
30:01
was only the following morning that occurred to me
30:03
that we had reached the gate. It was closed,
30:06
and I realized that the car had disappeared through a
30:08
closed gate because I had watched it
30:11
go through it, and the gate hadn't
30:13
moved. The next day after
30:15
that, I sent one of the farm workers
30:17
to fetch some sheep who were lost in the bush.
30:20
On his way back, he said he saw an object
30:22
straddling the road. By
30:25
the time he reached the spot, it was gone. But
30:28
strangely enough, the sheep would not walk over
30:30
the area where the object had been. Instead,
30:33
they diverted around it. My workers
30:35
were convinced that this was a ghost, and
30:37
because I'm a Christian myself, I believe it
30:39
was a phantom or a spiritual phenomenon of
30:41
some sort. Because I
30:43
don't believe in UFOs. Which
30:46
is actually pretty common for the area. That there
30:48
are... That they say that the
30:51
people in Africa in this area
30:54
see a lot of things in the sky, but
30:56
they don't attribute them to UFOs. They
30:58
attribute them to spiritual things. That's
31:01
fair. I mean, it's all culture-based. Exactly. We
31:03
just talked about it with the chin, right?
31:05
We see... We see experience something that
31:08
we consider just to be a haunting. But
31:10
because the culture, it dictates
31:13
what you think the answer is
31:15
to your paranormal problem. I
31:19
love that they saw an alien like you saw a UFO.
31:22
There's just something so innocent about that. It's like, I
31:24
saw a UFO. I love it.
31:26
I love it. I love it. This
31:28
is the last story. And he also
31:31
wrote into our angle. He
31:33
said, quote, my name is Kedro.
31:37
And the things that fly through the night that
31:39
you call UFOs, which in Africa we
31:41
call Abahame, Abvatoya,
31:45
or the fiery visitors. Now,
31:48
long before they were heard of in other parts
31:50
of the world, we, the people
31:52
of Africa, the contacts of
31:54
these things and the creatures inside them.
31:56
I can only speak with certain constraints because
31:59
we are... We are not allowed
32:01
to talk in detail about these sacred things,
32:04
or else the starships will stop visiting
32:06
us. There is a creature
32:08
called the Matende yah naginji, the
32:11
gray or white creature with a large head
32:13
in the face of chalk white with large
32:15
green eyes that go around the creature's head
32:17
so it can look at you over its
32:20
shoulder. This
32:22
creature sometimes captures human beings, cuts
32:25
them open, then closes them up again and
32:27
makes them forget what happened. This is
32:29
only discovered if the person is put into a trance
32:32
and then he remembers. I
32:35
was once abducted myself by the
32:37
creature. They paralyzed
32:39
me, then painfully examined
32:41
me by sticking instruments into
32:43
my nostrils. A female
32:45
creature seduced me, but it was very cold
32:47
and unpleasant, a feeling of being
32:50
violated. I then found myself back
32:52
in my bush and when I
32:54
approached my village, all the dogs tried to attack
32:56
me and I had to be rescued. I
32:59
then learned I had been missing for
33:01
three days and there are
33:03
many creatures who are watching us over
33:05
curiously and they are regulating our development
33:07
for some reason." So
33:11
he was like, hey, it
33:13
is absolutely frowned upon in
33:16
our culture to talk about this. Do
33:18
you want to know what happened? You
33:20
want to hear that tea? Could you imagine having
33:22
something like that being in your mind and nowhere
33:24
to put it? He had no
33:26
one to talk about too. That is why
33:28
you journal, man. That is why you bottle things up and you
33:31
blog. He did, but he told people about it. He sent it
33:33
out. There are all these cultures that have
33:35
these entities that they do not feel like they
33:37
can talk about. What do we have? They
33:40
do not feel like we can talk about it? We
33:42
are like, do not ask your co-workers what they make.
33:44
That is what we have. It is just to keep
33:46
us down. That is enforced by the
33:49
higher ups. The higher ups. Well,
33:51
I do not know. I
33:54
do not want to say it is discouraged to
33:56
talk about demons, but it is
33:59
almost. taboo to a
34:01
certain degree but I don't think it hits our like
34:03
it's not as strongly we're not as
34:05
intense about it yeah as you
34:08
know like Navajo with like you know skin walkers
34:10
and things like that is just I don't
34:13
know we were trying to we were trying to work it with slender man
34:16
you talk about him he gonna come but
34:19
yeah those are the end of my stories so now we're
34:21
going to move on that's German
34:23
isn't it DeGrosz man DeGrosz man yeah
34:25
we ain't got nothing all right people
34:27

34:30

do you fund being you? Ufologists, they

can't just do book sales. You know what I
38:03
mean? Like I'm no if you know science like my
38:05
sister she teaches too But I feel
38:07
like when you're a scientist you need like and you
38:09
work for school you get funding Yeah, right like you
38:11
want to do a research. They want to know your
38:13
findings So they fund you to go to go do
38:16
your project so you can hire people get the equipment
38:18
You need to go travel if you are a ufologist
38:20
and you want to travel to Zimbabwe
38:22
to interview these children yeah about a UFO
38:24
sighting is that just all in your own
38:26
dime hoping that you can write about it
38:29
Make profit on book sales Well,
38:31
here's the thing. I think if
38:34
I knew how to do that. I
38:36
would be doing it But you
38:38
make the money, but it's not like it's I'm
38:40
not saying it's a wealthy career No, but well
38:42
John Mac. He was primarily a Teacher
38:45
at Harvard that was his
38:47
job him. I'm talking about Cynthia. Oh
38:50
she was from Africa She's
38:52
from there. She's from there. She is from there.
38:54
Oh, yeah, I guess well You know it it's
38:56
probably easier now because you just be uber I've
38:59
probably you fall just are like actually uber
39:01
drivers Yeah, that's the part-time uber driver part-time
39:03
you and there's nothing wrong with that either
39:06
But there you know they say if you
39:08
get in there their cab their their car
39:10
And you even breathe the
39:12
word UFO you're in for an
39:14
earful You are a whole
39:16
trip It's probably rare that that the passenger is the
39:19
one that brings it up Unless they have like one
39:21
of those signs on the back of their car that
39:23
or their seat That's like free water about a way
39:25
if you want to talk about any Free
39:28
water just say the word alien just breathe
39:30
it out of your mouth think it. I'll say
39:32
it Racine a
39:34
glowing object up in the sky and then
39:37
lose four days. I think you're right a
39:39
lot of people. There's also conferences People
39:42
attend conferences and they want to hear
39:44
from speakers. That's extensive shit. Yes, it's
39:46
like I've seen I
39:48
like on my bosses dime I've gone
39:51
to those type of conferences trade shows
39:53
and they are not cheap So it's
39:55
like I don't I don't know
39:57
is I'm not saying it's impossible, and I'm not
39:59
saying Like I don't know is what I'm saying. Like
40:01
I don't know how you make it as a ufologist. I know
40:03
we always joked about like you need to write a book to
40:06
become a ufologist. At least one book, but I think you have
40:08
to keep writing. You have to keep writing. I
40:10
think to make it. Unless it's just purely
40:12
a hobby. I also think
40:14
that's a big part of it too. I think a lot
40:17
of these people who are primary jobs are like not
40:20
ufologists. They need to
40:22
become like a YouTuber or ufologist and like milk the
40:24
content. Well yeah. Like I mean if we could live
40:26
off the podcast, we could essentially become a ufologist. I
40:29
don't mean that in that we're qualified yet. I
40:32
mean that we could then dedicate the time to
40:34
learn how to become a ufologist. And
40:36
we could travel to interviews. Joining groups and stuff to
40:38
like move on or whatever. They
40:42
all pitch in the e-fud. Yeah,
40:45
but it's like three bars
40:47
of jerky. Anyway, so let's
40:49
talk about the Rua incident. Oh yeah.
40:52
Yeah, the thing we talked about. How
40:54
credible do you give it? Like do you think? How credible
40:56
do you give it? Well what do you think? Do
40:59
you think it's like very credible or not very? Like because
41:02
think about the circumstances. Like do you think a lot
41:04
of the mess hysteria had something to do with it?
41:07
Or did most of them see something? Or is also
41:10
that you know being left out mentality.
41:12
Like the conformity aspect. Yeah, they're seeing
41:14
something. I don't want to be left
41:16
out. Yeah. Yeah. I
41:18
don't know. I think there's certainly a
41:20
possibility that it could have been fabricated and
41:22
just hyped up. And then you know
41:25
the mind is interesting. If you start believing in
41:28
something. Yeah. I mean
41:30
look at cults and things like that. If
41:33
somebody with any type of power or
41:37
not even power but conviction. Like
41:39
if you see someone and they're
41:41
likable and they truly believe in what
41:43
they believe in, it's
41:45
easy to follow them. That's
41:47
true. And you don't want to be
41:49
left out. And you know what could
41:51
have started as like, yeah this could get
41:53
us out of you know classes for the rest
41:56
of the day. Snowballs into
41:58
this big event right? And I
42:01
guess another question I wanna ask
42:03
you, right, is about the interviews,
42:05
Ash with John Mack, about
42:08
the messages that didn't really come to
42:10
light until months later. Yeah,
42:12
it's suspicious. It's very suspicious. Also, this
42:14
is the 90s, this isn't like the
42:17
40s or the 50s. So
42:19
if someone's like, what did the alien
42:21
look like? So they picked the most
42:24
stereotypical version that they probably had already
42:26
seen before. I
42:28
do, so what I
42:30
think, I think that they, something
42:32
did happen. I think something did land. I
42:34
don't know if it necessarily did look like that. They just kinda
42:37
said that because that's what they think aliens look like. I
42:39
don't think it had anything to do with the school. I
42:42
think it was something else entirely. Cause if
42:44
it was with the school, it would've paid
42:46
them more attention. You know
42:48
what I mean? Like it would've focused on them. Oh,
42:51
so you're saying it could've been a sighting,
42:53
but it wasn't like the aliens were focused
42:56
on the school. It's just they happened to land there. And
42:58
they were just passing, you know, it was just like sightseeing.
43:01
I don't know, that's, yeah. I mean like, not
43:03
sightseeing, they just happened to see them. It
43:06
wasn't intentional by the school. This is where
43:08
they landed. Yeah, no, this is like a million odds
43:10
to one. Like there's no way this could've happened. There's
43:13
no way this could've happened, but it did happen. And
43:16
I don't think it had anything to do with the
43:18
kids. I don't think they sent them a message. Well,
43:20
that's true too. But then, but if that's a lie
43:22
that they're starting to add onto, it just kind of
43:24
like retroactively.
43:27
It nullifies the whole thing, not nullifies, but
43:29
it makes you think maybe the whole thing
43:31
is bullshit. That's why I really don't like
43:34
the last part where they add on the message. It's
43:37
like you went too far. You should've stopped
43:39
while you were ahead. Exactly. But
43:41
that's what I think. I think something did happen
43:43
though. I think something landed. So
43:46
you go believable? Yeah,
43:49
I mean that's the definition of believability. If
43:51
you do believe in your heart, it happened.
43:53
I believe it. So I
43:56
don't believe Dallin. I think he doesn't wanna be associated
43:58
with this anymore. I think you're right, I think
44:01
he wants to be pulled away. Maybe he
44:03
doesn't believe what he saw when he was a
44:05
kid. It's just the
44:07
fact that all of them were so convinced
44:09
and they all had very similar stories, that's
44:11
what gets me. Yeah,
44:13
I think these are third graders. I don't, you know, like, well, I
44:15
mean, not all of them. How
44:18
many grades are there in this school? They didn't go into
44:21
that, I think it's between first and third, I think it's
44:23
kinda more like a, oh, God,
44:25
I can't remember the name of the type of school now where it's like, the
44:28
kids teach the other kids like the, I
44:30
can't remember the name of the school, but
44:32
it's not really, you'd separate by grades, I think. I
44:35
think I'm gonna go skeptical. Yeah? I
44:38
think that makes, I mean, that's totally fair. I understand
44:40
why you're gonna go skeptical. It's kids,
44:43
they jump too much with
44:45
the telepathic thing and
44:48
you got one of the students coming out and saying they
44:50
fabricated it. Yeah. I think it's like, I
44:53
think adults' memory is
44:55
already really hard to kind of believe
44:58
over time. You
45:01
know, it's very easy to reconstruct memories. You
45:03
hear that all the time with like car
45:05
accidents and witness reports and things like that.
45:08
So, like, for children who
45:11
are excitable and
45:13
have huge imaginations and want
45:16
to get out of school, for a
45:18
couple people to just start something and saying
45:20
it, it's so easy to buy in. I
45:24
would love to hear more interviews too.
45:26
Like, if there's 60 kids there, you know,
45:29
like, I wish there'd be 30, because if you got 28
45:31
of them that are like, you
45:33
know, like, if 20 of them said no, I saw
45:35
the lights underneath like that one kid, you know. It's
45:38
also, on the other side, if
45:40
it was a rock, you'd think they'd be able to go
45:42
back a day later and be like, find the same rock.
45:44
That's the same rock, yeah. Yeah. I'm
45:47
not saying it's unbelievable. I mean, it absolutely could have
45:49
been an alien
45:51
sighting. I definitely
45:53
go to the blue ball. They saw a UFO and
45:55
then out of the UFO came another UFO. Walking around.
45:59
Oh, boy. But let's move
46:01
on. Yeah, so we're
46:04
getting unbelievable and skeptical Thank
46:11
you for listening to this episode the Rua
46:13
incidents unique encounters with
46:15
alien kids Don't it doesn't
46:17
happen often with kids Or
46:19
if it does you don't hear about it. They say
46:22
kids are more in tune with things like ghosts It's
46:24
true. Does that does that also parallel over to aliens?
46:26
I Don't know For
46:29
some reason in this case. I don't think it's
46:31
true. Apparently. I've been thinking about that I don't
46:33
know if it is I think maybe not and
46:36
it's not like I'm not saying that they're not
46:38
intelligent and I'm not saying that they're not well
46:40
intentioned It's just like it's
46:42
just kids man. They're excitable. Yeah, they believe
46:44
in like things like Santa Claus. Yeah You
46:47
know how deeply I believe in Santa Claus
46:49
like you hear jingling and I just like
46:52
truly believe there's a chance He's outside on
46:54
my my well actually if kids
46:56
are list If you have if you're an adult and you're
46:58
riding in a car right now, Santa's real.
47:00
We're talking about him Like he's not real. Well,
47:03
we're gonna know he's real. We're gonna pretend for a second. Like
47:05
he's not real You know, like I thought
47:07
like yeah, of course, he goes to
47:09
every child in the world and right now he's on my
47:11
roof Yeah, you know, so why wouldn't it be hard to
47:14
buy into the idea that? Yeah,
47:16
one kid said there's an alien where where over there?
47:18
Oh, where's that? Mm-hmm And you have to look in
47:20
that look at that experience like with the same they
47:22
all have the same kind of conviction But
47:26
also gullibility as well. Mm-hmm and
47:29
nobody like especially a third fourth grader You don't
47:31
want to be the one that didn't see the
47:33
alien right you be missing out or or you
47:35
know What I'm wrong and they saw aliens
47:37
and that's dope. Yeah Monastery school that's
47:39
what I was thinking about monastery. Mm-hmm, which is
47:42
it's a type of school You know you applied
47:44
for one didn't you I did apply for one.
47:46
Yeah, but they're like, you're not a kid Like
47:49
what do you mean? Yeah, this
47:52
is definitely a unique I don't
47:54
know about the most credible experience ever but
47:56
it's unique. I just want to say
47:58
if you enjoy the show and
48:00
you're liking the episodes, if you could leave
48:03
a review on Apple and a five star,
48:05
that would be fantastic. And if you're on
48:07
Spotify, we're getting
48:09
closer to that 5,000. And
48:12
I would just like to ask you to leave
48:14
a five star. Here's another thing. Yes. And
48:17
we don't ask much, except for every episode we ask you to do
48:19
exactly what Charlie just said. That's true. Telefrant,
48:21
word of mouth, conversationally.
48:24
Podcasts are still hip. I mean, five years they might
48:26
be gone. Who knows? Yeah, who knows? We might be,
48:28
I don't know. Like a dinosaur. We actually have jobs,
48:30
so we would be at those jobs. But,
48:34
you know, it's like sometimes some of the
48:36
best podcasts that I've listened to have been
48:38
from recommendations. That's true. So, you know,
48:41
if you don't want to take the time to leave
48:43
a review, or if you've already left a review, and
48:45
you're like, what else can I do? Sometimes just like
48:47
bringing it up, be like, hey, do you, you know,
48:49
while you're walking or driving, if you listen to podcasts,
48:51
check out this one. They don't take
48:53
themselves too seriously. Yeah, it's a good time. Aliens and
