I remember reading about this as a youngster and i was amazed by the actual tangable evidence of the gloves and burn. I really think this is the real thing.

[schubiduba]

Mines also bring radioactive material to the surface

0:47 I saw the same UFO in Bulgaria close to Sunny Beach was around midnight

[growingeffects]

I think it’s crazy the suffering and death that some encounters cause.
Swept under the rug like you’re imagining your suffering.
🤦🏾‍♂️✌🏾🇨🇦

[Damiansweldingshortz]

It’s still makes me chuckle how people still don’t believe there’s extraterrestrial lol

[treddah]

My guess is he was hit with a high tech non lethal weapon for getting close. I highly doubt it has exhausts of any kind

[Cinemachoicefilms]

Finally the government is saying this is something real, smh I always knew we werent alone.

[lesant]

Most definitely a true event. Remarkable story.

Rest easy Mr michalak

Interesting. Is tge grid on his chest a map for him?

[binarycode]

He was too close, if a ufo craft came into our atmosphere. It would vent its heat out of that chanber in the grid pattern. Thats why it set him alight.

He probably had slight radiation poisoning, which would cause low cell count and sickness

[TonyMaldonado-cvlv]

Its so good to see his Son Speaking for his Deceased Father who i 1000% believe bcuz i saw a Flying Saucer to in 2001 those kinds of things you never 4get. Im Glad he still Remembers.

in this thumbnail, isn't that an aluminum wok with a lid on it ?

[frozengamer]

This is similar case I've heard in that new documentary on Netflix called alien investigation.

[Benjaminkoru]

Stories, stories, and more stories to keep people from seeing the real problems our planet is experiencing

“Genuine tragedies in the world are not conflicts between right and wrong. They are conflicts between two rights” Georg Hegel

[piconano]

Being Canadian, I know of this case.
The aliens in this case, were not as sophisticated as others.
Some UFOs are a lot more advanced than others, but all operate on the same principle which we don't understand.
It would make sense if we were dealing with different species.
According to long time rumors, there are 6 species that visit regularly and none like each other very much.
Hopefully they'll fight each other as we watch bellow, like ancient India witnessed.

Unsolved Mysteries did this episode a lot better. Look it up.

[poeto]

how come we don't have anymore UFO sightings since the cellphone era?🤔

[LloydChristmas-eg]

Wasn't this story on unsolved mysteries episode

[leslie]

Star Trek revisited - science fiction without science behind it 😂
