During the great sighting outbreak of early November 1957, a number of close
|
||
|
|
encounters had a disturbing consequence: burns and related injuries to
|
||
|
|
witnesses. One of the most dramatic occurrences took place at an army base at
|
||
|
|
Itaipu along Brazil's Atlantic coast. At 2 A.M. on November 4 two guards saw a
|
||
|
|
luminous orange disc coming in over the ocean at a low altitude and an
|
||
|
|
alarming rate of speed. As it passed above the soldiers, the disc came to an
|
||
|
|
instant stop. The two witnesses suddenly felt a wave of heat and a horrifying
|
||
|
|
sensation as if they had burst into flame. Their screams brought other
|
||
|
|
soldiers stumbling out of their barracks just in time to see the UFO streak
|
||
|
|
away. At that moment the fort's entire electrical system failed. Amid great
|
||
|
|
secrecy the two men were rushed to a military hospital and treated during the
|
||
|
|
next few weeks for first-and second-degree burns to ten percent of their
|
||
|
|
bodies.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But there were other burn cases as well. In the afternoon of the same day as
|
||
|
|
the Itaipu incident, the engines of several cars along a rural highway near
|
||
|
|
Orogrande, New Mexico, ceased to function as an eggshaped object maneuvered
|
||
|
|
close by. A witness who stood particularly close to it contracted a "sunburn."
|
||
|
|
In the early morning hours of November 6, outside Merom, Indiana, a hovering
|
||
|
|
UFO, which bather his farm in light, also seriously burned Rene Gilham's face.
|
||
|
|
He ended up spending two days in the hospital. At around 1:30 A.M. on November
|
||
|
|
10 a Madison, Ohio, woman saw an acorn-shaped UFO hovering just behind her
|
||
|
|
garage. She watched it for half and hour. In the days afterward she developed
|
||
|
|
a body rash and vision problems that her doctor believed suggested radiation
|
||
|
|
poisoning. Subsequent medical tests uncovered no apparent cause for her
|
||
|
|
injuries.
