- Date: August 23, 2002
- Time: approx: 7:00 p.m.
-
- I had a telephone call from a lady telling me she had
witnessed something really strange, and that it had really frightened her.
She also told me that she had taken video tape of the object as it was
heading away from her location, which was in a southwesterly direction.
I made arrangements for the same day to visit and interview her over what
she saw. I arrived at the witnesses home (farm) and was greeted by a very
pleasant lady, she asked me into their home and we discussed what it was
she had seen.
-
- She said at approx: 7:00 p.m. on Friday evening, August
23, 2002 she was at the kitchen sink washing up the days dishes and looking
out the window which over looks their large farm. He eyes caught a large
bright light heading down behind the trees, which was at the far end of
the families farm. She told me she could clearly see the shape of the object,
and it was cylinder in shape. Shinny and metallic in color.
-
- To her surprise the object looped around and headed back
up into the sky.
-
- At this time of the evening, it was still quite light
out, and she had no problem in seeing it. She ran a grabbed her video camera
and took some film of the object as it departed the area.
-
- The witness brought out her video camera and showed me
what it was she captured on the tape, and I must say I was really surprised.
My first thought when I saw the object on the tape, was that maybe it was
a meteor, but after hearing her explanation of the events this ruled out
my thoughts on what it might have been.
-
- If I had to explain what this object looked like, it
looked exactly like one of the many movies we see of T.V., where a comet
is heading towards earth with a contrail from the tip of it and running
a short distance off the back end of it. But the contrail, if one wants
to call it that, had another very shot tail coming out the back end, right
in the center. It almost gave the impression of the flames coming from
a fighter aircraft. But no flames could be seen with this object. The object
was massive, and very bright.
-
- It also moved across the sky rather slowly.
-
- After I viewed the tape, the witness said, we are not
finished yet. She went on to tell me that about a half hour later, while
she was finishing off the dishes she was working on, she watched another
"large bright white" object rise up from behind the Telkwa mountain
range. She said straight up, in other words from the base of the mountain
heading to the top and then stopped and hovered. Again she ran to grab
her video camera, and started filming this object. After she watched it
rise up from behind the mountain, the object moved to the right along the
top of the range. ( HBCC UFO Note: this is where the video camera ran out
of tape, but the witness did think to run and grab another blank tape,
and started rolling again).
-
- When she started filming the object once again, it had
already reached the end of the mountain range, and was dropping down, but
following the contour of the mountain. She filmed it until it went down
behind the tress on her property which blocked the view of the object.
The mountain range is at some distance away from the family's farm across
the Bulkley Valley. I wondered if it might be something explainable, but
from her description of the event, I soon ruled that out.
-
- The witness dropped into my home the next day to drop
off a couple of things I had left behind after the interview and she was
still rather frightened due to not knowing what this object was. She said
it gave her the creeps and hoped I would be able to come up with a reasonable
explanation to what it was, just to make her feel better about the whole
experience.
-
- I would like to thank this witness for her help and report.

-
- What HBCC UFO did not add was the video footage in which
followed the initial sighting. The object dropped down out of sighting,
looped around according to the eyewitnessed and rose up behind the Telkwa
mountain range. The video footage to both can be found below.
-
- Below: The first clip I have posted before on this site.
The two remaining clips I had problems with and posting now, both clips
are below. Also I would like to point out that a UFO documentary used the
footage and aired the full event.
