    I had heard an interesting theory about the UFO conspiracy. The theory goes that it was actually started by the CIA itself. The reason was that they were aware of German flying saucer research (even if the claims were exaggerated they thought it was at least possible) and they were afraid that the Soviets had captured enough research to make their own version. Their biggest fear was a sort of Sputnik scenario (before sputnik) where the Soviets seemed to have vastly superior tech and disenfranchise the public. So they used their WWII connections to Hollywood to put out the thought that if any American saw a flying saucer in the sky their initial thought was in aliens rather than a soviet spy plane. After all, the CIA couldn't care less if people thought aliens were real but they cared a whole lot if Americans thought Communism was superior to Capitalism. Then this conspiracy took on a life of its own. Years later the CIA would reshape the theory to disguise their secret stealth research so now alien craft where thought of by enthusiasts to be triangles or some other shape and not saucers, so if the public saw a weird triangle shaped craft they wouldn't start talking about covert American research but think it was an alien craft. I don't know if this theory is true but its at least interesting.

      Flying saucers are a human invention and we all know what they are there not a " UFO"" Canada even built one but it did not fly very well , plus the Germans did build some not sure how many or are they still on the drawing board even Tesla made one on paper , and they where built to be used as a floating platform for guns then they could hover and shoot and kill people , they where never where built for space travel , no Aliens used them for space travel , why like i say its a human invention , Holy Wood are the ones to create Aliens into the picture of Flying saucers, plus if real Aliens come here they will come in something way bigger then a tiny Flying saucer , there is no conspiracy its just this how well we are educated about flying saucers and who invented them . Tesla saucer is the most advanced saucer drawn on paper the rest of them used jet engines for lift same as the one that Canada built just one and can be seen on film as scientist and pilots test them , one even crashed in the desert most known test that failed and was a big cover up on what really crashed in the desert , the story is that it got in range of a radio disk the radio field messed with the saucers drive system and it failed to produce lift the craft crashed in the desert, the radio disk was to powerful for use , the two who worked the radio disk got cancer and died the radio disk was removed and replaced with one that had a lower out put and produced less EMF . EMF can give some one cancer if a person is exposed for too long well there you go . bye for know have a nice day and look out for Aliens just kidding .

      That's along the same lines as my personal theory. I suspect that there's a break away group who have harnessed our own research in these fields and used it for personal profit and use. We've made enormous strides in terms of technology but friends who have worked in the US navy as decoders assure me that what the public knows about is at least 25 years behind what is actually available. Can you imagine what we may achieve in the next 25 years if we continue at the current pace.
      Or should I say the pace of the late 2000's as we have definitely slowed down.

    • @In0god0we0trust
      @In0god0we0trust 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The theory is circular. But-for the fact the CIA concealed the German UFO research, they wouldn't need to worry about UFOs being attributed to communism.
      I.e. if UFOs were actually a product of Hitlers Germany, the CIA need only reveal that _"truth"_ to disprove the "communism is better because it produced UFOs" argument.
      But the CIA doesn't deal in truth, and that is not the truth. The truth is the powers that be care _very much_ what the public thinks about the existence of aliens, because the germans got the tech from aliens as did the others. And they want to use that tech to hoax an ET threat to humanity.

I being a former Soldier has seen 2 UFOs 1 was triangle shaped hovering near a now defunct nuclear power station at approx 12:20pm others seen it back at around 17:00hrs. Not long after this I saw a cylinder passing right over where I live and carry on over to the NE over my town into Scotland. Do not laugh at thinks that you have not witnessed. The Germans had flying disks. There were photos of not film of these off the ground.. Just like the atom bomb that the Nazis did test detonate on another island near the missile experimental range. According to witness's this did occur and including a ME262 Test Pilot who shouldn't have been flying over that area at that time and witnessed the flash Mushroom cloud .

    When I was a little boy growing up in France in the early 70's my parents bought me that hard cover comic book ( sort of ) about WW2 weapons and I clearly remember 10 pages about a Nazi Flying saucer...
    The whole thing was perfectly depicted and according to them the flying saucer flew perfectly and even reached speeds up to 2200 km/h 😄😄😄
    Of course, it completely fascinated the imagination of a 8-year old little boy 😄😄😄 but looking back I don't think it was true...
    But, regardless, and in spite of what Mark Felton says everybody knows the Nazis ended up building secret bases in Antarctica with crazier weapons and from there they went to the moon...I even watched a movie about it 😄😄😄

    my grandmother told me about seeing 2 nazi disk shaped aircraft in WW2, she said this was near the wars end and mentioned to me about them as we discussed the topic of ufo's in the 1960's. She said that they were a extremely secret project and she what able to see them fly by just being in the right place at the right time accidentally. Although she was threatened by the military, but as a German woman playing ignorant of things, after being threatened and told this is not to be spoken about or else, she was released, and good to her word, for 25 years she never mentioned them, except to me shortly before her earthly existence ended. They are real, and the Avro flying disk was to use the ground effect to be able to get to speed for take off and flight over damaged runways and not take off vertically as often stated.

    An interesting omission from this, otherwise, fine report was the work that was commissioned or more likely coerced from Victor Schaumberger. The Austrian hydraulics expert whose concepts and designs caught the attention of some of the German engineers who saw the potential in his radical approach to fluid dynamics and propulsion. Although, it was rumored that the peace-loving man tried to slow-walk his efforts to deprive the Germans of any advantages that could be realized from his work, a working prototype "vortex" motor was built and had the ability to provide lift to a sizeable craft. Saucer-shaped or otherwise. As far as the Canadian Avrocar, there is a high probability that this project was an intentional red-herring intended to divert attention from other projects that were being carried out by the Air Force. T. Thomas Townsend had been building flying disc models in his private laboratory in Zanesville, Ohio as early as the 1930's. His models employed a di-electric, high voltage system that seemingly could reduce the inertial mass of a vehicle thus permitting conventional propulsion systems the ability to lift off and land vertically. The B-2 stealth bomber reportedly uses a variation of this effect in its design.

    There is alot to look at when examining these subjects. The vehicles examined here are very conventional in their power plants, propulsive forces and methods of producing lift. The only thing pictured that represents what most people think of when they hear "German flying saucers" was the plastic model diorama photo. The Haunebu series craft, if they indeed existed, supposedly did not use conventional power generation, or propulsive force generating systems. These likely used an electro-gravitic method of motion. If you want to know more about electro-gravitics, look up a chap named Thomas Townsend Brown. He began his research into gravity manipulation back in the 1920's. A very fascinating individual. This is a seriously fascinating subject, and deserves attention, as it was and still is an important part of our journey to master aviation, and physics. So much of the history of this aspect of aeronautics has been done under the cover of secrecy, that it can be difficult to separate the disinformation from the true information. Do your research. Make up your own mind. Enjoy the jouney! : )

    Imagine this! Someone finally does a video about what was supposed to be an ultra-secret project. I first heard of this during an interview with British actor Christopher Lee, during the filming of the "Lord of the Rings" movie. Before they discussed the movie, Mr. Lee was asked about his life, a short bio if you like. He said that during the war, he was an interrogator for the British army intelligence, and had interrogated some German scientist that had been working on a top secret project. The interviewer wrongly concluded that he meant the Peenemunde scientist. "No, not those, these were working on something else. It went far beyond that I can say. After several days they were handed off to the Americans and I never saw them after that" Mr. Lee said. When pressed what it was he stated that he was bound by a lifetime oath never to discuss anything in detail of what he saw or heard during his military service, and that was that. Of course this is just my opinion, but I believe the Nazis had worked out the beginnings of anti-gravity flight, but it was too late in the war for them to go any further with it. Strange how just a few years later {around 1947 or so} all of these UFO sightings began in the US. I don't think it is a coincidence.

      They drove Werner von Braun (who built the v2 and the Saturn V) to craters where his rockets landed, and basically threatned him with the death penalty... then the USA spirited him away to the USA.. Nebraska to be exact. They went on to use him to land on the moon, and I think the U.K. was mad about that too. Queen Elizabeth is German, and its this whole complicated mess that dates back beyond WW1...
      Anyways I think a lot of the Nazis that made it to the USA were treated pretty fairly and had good lives, Russia also, they just pretty much kept on doing what they were doing... building planes, that is.

It is named after the Angles, one of the ancient Germanic peoples that migrated to the area of Great Britain that later took their name, England.

      Drones are more like helicopters in their operation. The flying saucers were meant to be VTOL aircraft capable of combat. The problem is that a disk is probably the worst wing design you can try to fly with: airflow spills off in all directions. Even with modern computers many of the stealth designs become aerodynamically unstable if the fly-by-wire fails.
      Basically no one developed the flying saucer because helicopters and aircraft like the Harrier did the job far better.

    Mussolini was very interested in UFOs or UAPs. He set up a specific agency to deal with them, after he himself witnessed one. There was also an alleged crash of a UFO which impacted in the Alps area near Tyrol. The Italian Military located the crash and the unidentified vehicle was rescued and kept under wraps. There was also a German UFO crash in the Brandenburg Forest. I have read about this incident, although little is known other than the unusual incident had occurred and been recorded.

    Another German "Flying Saucer" type design was the Focke-Wolfe "Rochen".
    An interesting note many do not realize is that the first widely reported "flying saucer" report by Kenneth Arnold over Mount Rainier in Washington was not of a Saucer, but of nine Crescent-Shaped craft. Interestingly, if one compares the drawing Arnold made of what he saw to one of the Flying Wing designs of the Horton Brothers, one would see a striking similarity. The Hortons' Flying wings did fly, and the US even completed Flying Wing bomber prototypes that flew, being the YB-35 and YB-49. While officially, the only surviving Horton craft sits in the Smithsonian, I have to wonder how else Kenneth Arnold would have been able to draw something so close to what at the time would be a highly classified aircraft design that few would be privy to unless he possibly actually saw one?

He rotated his gun turret round to have a better view and there were two silver disc like craft. The craft were there for about 15 mins or so then changed direction and flew off at incredible speeds. They never knew what the craft were. Some people at the time wondered if they were Russian or eve Chinese such were the rumours.
    On a briefing before one mission he remembered being told to look out for unusual craft that had been spotted over mostly eastern Germany. The person giving the briefing then drew what the craft looked like, an oval/circular shape with lights round it. He said they all burst out laughing as the air crews though they were joking, they were not!
    So makes you wonder what was going off. These craft never attacked allied aircraft from what I was told. Could they be terrestrial based or indeed of extra-terrestrial origin?

    I think it probable that German scientists were working on types of flying saucers towards the end of WWii, But not because they were into flying saucers, but just because they were working on different types of jet aircraft. All modern aircraft use axial flow gas turbine type jet engines, but if you try and build a Radial flow gas turbine powered aircraft you will end up with a somewhat disc shaped vehicle. Now John Frost was originally working on Radial flow gas turbine vehicles, But if any of them actually flew i am unaware. But the Avro avrocar actually was powered by three axial flow gas turbines, the problems with it was that all three engines would over heat, so maximum power could not be achieved and because of that the main lift rotor could not reach its designed RPM's. The U.S. military was tolled that these issues could be solved, but they cancelled the projects anyway.

This Avro hovercraft was a clever disinformation tool and almost everyone fell for it. I know this from 25 years of research so I have the top secret documents and photos to prove that the Germans succeeded in mass producing these high voltage flying saucers.

    Mark you have far outdone ANY of the other channels concerning this subject. Most might have one or two names of the German engineers who worked on flying saucers but you have double digits of names! Well done!

    I very much appreciate Dr. Felton's ability to pronounce German names and other words, considering the low levels of competence generally found on TH-cam channels. Danke.
