America has played host to numerous high-profile UFO incidents, perhaps the most notorious of which took place in New Mexico during the summer of 1947. But the reported discovery of a downed alien spacecraft near Roswell was by no means the first such incident, with an equally mysterious crash having allegedly taken place in the neighbouring state of Texas, 50 years before. This week, we visit the mystery of Aurora.

Why is there a skull on the dad's saddle
@@theofficalplanetsheenfanpage Mikey likes to put such Easter eggs into these images, in reference to our Skully emblem.
@@BedtimeStoriesChannel who does the artwork for the channel? I think they should work on comics.
@@BedtimeStoriesChannel That was what I thought. I was still expecting it to be explained that he took the skull in a battle.
Alien spacecraft: *crashes*
Texans: Yeah, the heat’ll do that.
As a texan, I can definitively say, yes.
Well, you're not wrong. I mean...the heat's sent my trucks to the shop more than a few times.
true
@@NodDisciple1 was it a Dodge? they seem to have a lot of trouble with our summers, good trucks but the cooling systems have trouble hacking it down here
**WIndmill catches fire from heat** Move along, move along.
It's sweet how they gave a possible alien a service and burial. Respect
It’s poignant, isn’t it? Here’s a traveler who died far from home, whose family will never know what happened to him, but strangers made sure he was buried respectfully, just like any other person.
@@pvanpelt1 they are clones,they have no family
@@micjordan1919
Their fellow clones and the scientists who made them are their family.
Says a lot about the state of society then and now. Not looking good for us. Perhaps the aliens will come in greater numbers to teach us the importance of good manners. So that we might possibly survive as possible positive inhabitants of the universe.
@@clayxros576 they’re meant to be expandable
I love how the Texans just gave a full Christian burial and a tombstone to an alien
It was the kind neighborly think too do.
However today it would posted instantly all over the internet...
By the internet's creator Al Gross
Oh sorry, Al Gore He's just gross.
I felt like Indonesian muslim would also do the same, it is an obligation to burried the deceased no matter they are.
It was the best way than you to give respects to the Dead. Well I may not share their faith I think a kind gesture that it is.
It's was the polite thing to do, not knowing it's preferred religion.
@@stephenpmurphy591 Al didn't invent the internet but you know that, lol. Vandervar Bush did. No relations to the warmongers. Worked with Tesla good luck finding info on the net , he has pretty much been wrote out. Like what Stalin did to Trotsky. I wonder why....
.Peace.
Imagine watching a spaceship hover above your property _6 years before the flight of the first aeroplane_ and then crash spectacularly against a windmill and just being like "Oh well, RIP that bloke I guess."
Probably too tired from farm chores.
The first hot air balloon in the US flew out of Philadelphia in 1793. Just over a century before the Aurora incident. Someone losing control of an experimental balloon? After seeing their use in the American Civil War and the Franco-Prussian War, I can see someone getting creative and trying to build a self-propelled one, and practical airships were starting to crop up in the 1800s.
"Sucks to be that guy."
Hot air balloons and "airships"flew before "aeroplanes" for for nearly 200 years before the Wright Brothers, and the description sounded more like an airship than anything else, so the concept of flight was not foreign, the Wrights merely pioneered, or at least popularized, the concept of *_heavier_* than air flight before anyone else could and *_after lighter_* than air flight was proven. In fact this incident took place only 3 years before the first true dirigible was recorded to fly out of Germany, the first true "airship". This video even mentioned odd similar occurrences where odd people in odd uniforms spoke odd languages dating back further than this incident and beyond. The Hindenburg was able to cross the Atlantic, and other such Dirigibles did so before, they just weren't as big or as tragic so you don't hear about them. This story has all the hallmarks of a hydrogen lifted blimp/dirigible with a single test pilot.
Grek
The alien may have been from another world but the people of Aurora, Texas still gave it a proper burial like it was a human being.
Since there are no more indians to butchers they made the first intergalactic conversion to christianism
Would they do it for an African American
Well ya it's the right thing to do
@@RobertK1993 yes but not for you
I'd imagine if that little alien dude survived, maybe the townsfolk would have just welcomed them with open arms, treated their wounds, give them some nice overalls and little cowboy hat to protect their damaged skin from the heat, and make a nice meal for them.
That's my ideal scenario for this situation if it happened. They seemed like nice folk back then.
RIP Little Alien Dude.
Those Texans showed humanity exists I'f it was actually extraterrestrials only issue in this story is how the hell always those ets crash there ship immediately after entering earth's atmosphere
Thirty years later, government investigators sent to find out why the hell everyone in this tiny nowhere town in Texas is so improbably healthy that the town hasn't recorded a single death since 1896 are told, "Oh, that's just ol' Doc Grey. He's a helluva sawbones. Ain't much of a driver, though."
You forgot to mention that they would have given him the comeliest maiden in town to wed..........
Dude, make this into a screenplay. I'd watch the hell out of that movie
That’s a good thought!
The crash was real. I found an old article in a library that reported on the incident. The community buried the small body in a plain wood coffin out of respect for the dead, being a Christian community. The body was removed during the night while the residents slept. The townspeople wanted no publicity and it upset them that the body was removed. Tombstone still marks it.
@@christosvoskresye You were not there and so have no idea what the people who WERE there would or would not do.
@@xisudra384 True, it pisses me off when people makes such assumptions.
@@christosvoskresye The body was probably very disfigured and possibly in pieces from the crash and fire, may looked human like enough to assume anything after all that.
An old article in a library is just short of proof. I don’t actually deny the possibility of it being alien but I need a little more proof to spread that info. Can you specify this old article and Library? That may help with 1 of 2 steps. The second would be to research the writer of the article a bit. That may change how I’m looking at this a bit. Hoping ur right...
@@christosvoskresye The fact that you call this a "cartoon" shows that you are merely a troll looking to get a rise out of people, or you're just plain dumb.
Kudos to Mikey. The artwork is only getting better and better. I especially liked how he drew the horses in the beginning of the story.
Indeed. Did you noticed the skull at the father's saddle?
@@DiegoNiedersberg haha)
@@DiegoNiedersberg Yes, what the flock?
@@mikeyturcanu5595 Prankin' us with a kid riding an English saddle in 19th century Texas too? Mikey!
I was about to say, whats with the Skull in the horses barding?
The Aurora Crash always fascinated me, like many stories about things like this there's more to it than meets the eye and the more one knows about the case the deeper the mystery gets. This was also only one of the many Mystery Airship sightings of the 18-1900s, which in itself is quite an enigma and some of the earliest "UFO" sightings in history (before you get into "Ancient Aliens" territory).
If you guys hadn't already done so, I'd love to see a more in-depth video about the Mystery Airship Phenomena. As I said, there's more to it than meets the eye, and the more one knows about it the deeper the mystery gets.
Just say we like something like which is from 1800s
I show this channel to everyone I know in hopes that one day we’ll hit 1M subs! You guys sure deserve it for the hard work and dedication you put into this FREE TH-cam channel. These stories and the artwork combined with the absolutely stellar narration, have helped me through some tough times over the past few years. Your hard work and dedication to this channel is appreciated and does not go unnoticed. Thank you bedtime stories!
I completely agree man. I would love to see this channel blow up like Mr. Ballen has, they put in so much work for these little masterpieces.
Don’t forget to ask them: “Are you entertained!!???”
It's now at 666k subscribers. 😈
Nobody gonna mention the last 40ish seconds? Lmao yes, Beer is indeed a sprititual substance
Mmmm 🍻 beer
This is the story I wanted to see when that movie Cowboys & Aliens came out :(
Woah I remember when that came out, you just unlocked a memory I had forgotten I had 😆
@@revenevan11 I have it. Want me to upload it to my Gdrive and send it to you?
I work in wise county and live in a neighboring county, this story is so interesting and no one around here will ever even acknowledge it or talk about it. Most of the time people don’t even know that there is a famous ufo sighting that took place near here.
bless this channel for the content it uploads.
Ikr? The quality content and extremely interesting stories. 👌
And I was hoping this would be the late Easter Special: There’s Something Eating All The Chocolate Eggs.
Ah, sorry that would be me eating all the Easter eggs. :)
Mystery solved, I confess
@@lodnisroub I guess this calls for a Rico Trial.
I have it on good authority that if you merely nibble off all chocolate coating, you can roll the naked center in a nearby flower bed, put it back in the basket, and pretend nothing happened.
There's something hopping down the trail.
Loving the beer spiritually monologue at the end
Thank you guys for adding me again to the credits I will be raising my membership soon know that!
This has always been one of my favorite,and also likely one of the most believable. Simply bc people of that time had no idea what a flying saucer was and no point of reference. Not to mention the direct consequences it had on the people of the town of Aurora
They just wanted to mind their business and give respect to whoever had their last bad day. Honestly, I gotta respect them for it....and kinda hope the event is forgotten so they can return to peace.
@@clayxros576 true
@@clayxros576 yeah , I agree . They didn't want to sensationalize it ,or make a big deal of it. Like u said they just wanted to pay respect, and continue on with their lives. I honestly believe that had the paranoia of post war America, and the Cold War had a negative impact on the psyche of the nation. The Russian boogeyman . If we had been the nation we were before the horrors of the Great Wars our government and the people of that time would have been more open to positive interactions with these things.
This was during the blimp flap and people were well aware of flying craft, also the mayor was a known prankster and after the railroad passed the town by had plenty of reason to create interest in the town.
How did the judge or anyone in the late 1800’s even know what ufo 🛸 looked like ?
H. G. Welles first published in 1895. The Time Machine was a big success. It's safe to say that people were open minded at that time.
And surprisingly so, too.
Two years after the novel was released (and the same year as this incident), however, another far different novel by the same author would be released... you know that alien-based book, right? Some of us "kids" might know it more as a Steven Spielberg film with 9/11 undertones, and no, it's not "Munich"...
@@michaelandreipalon359 War of the Worlds, another great science fiction novel.
@@scallopohare9431 Yes, precisely.
The trouble with this story (like a lot of them, frankly) is that it's purely reflective of the assumptions and limited perspective of the time. I mean...an interstellar spacecraft traveling at 12 mph hitting a windmill and exploding? Come on. It's kinda like how descriptions of alien encounters from the '50s are strangely reminiscent of alien depictions in fiction/movies of the time. Why weren't there any "grays" in the '50s? Hmmm...
@@brianpeterson9290 Yeah the whole 12mph drifting into a windmill and violently exploding sounds awfully terrestrial:P
I've actually stood at the grave site where the alien body was supposedly buried. As a teenager I was down there with some friends, one of which was visiting a relative's gravesite. That's where I had first heard the story. This was back in the early 1990's, before this became widely talked about on the Internet and in UFO documentaries. At the time I thought my friend was messing with me and that it couldn't possibly have been true. I heard about the case a few years later on TV and that changed my perspective on it. It's probably one of the most fascinating UFO cases I can think of as it predates the Roswell incident.
Can we talk about why daddy-o is riding around with a human skull attached to his saddle?
Just artistic license, I guess. Still, good artwork.
I was wondering the same. 😂
Ashtray
Style.
Because this is how a Soi-Boi brit that has never been to Texas imagines it.
Did not expect a story about an alien ship crash in Texas to partially restore my faith in humanity as a species.
Gg guys.
Yeah. This is a sweet story in a way. It says something that the citizens of a small Texan town were willing to give the victim a proper burial. Whether it the victim was an alien explorer or else a luckless human inventor doesn’t matter. What matters is that this community came together and decided that the victim deserved a proper burial. If the victim was human they might have been one of the dozen forgotten pioneers of manned flight. But if they were an alien then they might have been an explorer. Either way it’s full of warmth and gives me hope.
@@mirandagoldstine8548 yes but it wasn't alien as how they constantly crash there crafts and if it was what were they doing in Texas if this story is real it restored faith in humanity
@@gamingcreatesworlddd2425 Who knows if the story is true. But if it did happen then it’s a glitter of hope and kindness.
1897 : UFO crashes, residents calmly bury alien body and go about their lives without hysterics.
2021 : The design of a cartoon rabbit from a basketball movie is changed, chaos in the streets.
Yeah dude people talking about space jam on the internet is not comparable to chaos in the streets. Go outside.
@@thebible4484 ^^^ When you meet people on the internet who can't understand sarcasm
@@MrParkinthedark That's not sarcasm but keep trying dude
@The Bible
He's talking about you not understanding sarcasm dude. He was joking about space jam.
You clearly weren't with your comment.
Ok
This sounds a lot like an early prototype zeppelin crashing, and ending tragically for an inventor with more bravery than luck.
Exactly right...
Wouldn't somebody have reported the inventor missing?
@@adamromero A lot of people went missing in that time, like how crimes went unsolved, due to lacking modern technology.
But if it acts like a zeppelin and crashes Hindenburg style...
This would explain the burial too.
Most UFO sightings I feel are military aircraft misidentified as aliens.
It's interesting I do believe there were reports of "airships" over london around this time.
And people were a bit unsure of what to make of them other than being cigar shaped.
Aurora does sound like an airship.
However it crashed into the windmill and was traveling very slowly suggesting it was in trouble/ had mechanical issues.
Question is who built them
And had the technology at least 20 years on front of everyone
else?
If it was just an airship would've the wreckage be just left behind? And everyone would of just forgotten about it and moved on
Unless it was out of the ordinary weird looking.....
@@stuartd9741 If it was an early airship, it could've been an example of anachronistic technology; look at the Antikythera Mechanism, which is believed to have been made anywhere from 205 B.C. to 87 B.C. The knowledge of how to make such a device was lost - while it's true that crude clockwork mechanisms occasionally turned up in both the Byzantine and Islamic worlds, the level of mechanical sophistication seen in the Antikythera Mechanism didn't appear again until 14th Century Europe. It's unknown who made that ancient device, as they apparently didn't pass that knowledge on to anyone else.
I live 30.5 miles from Aurora, TX and I have never heard of this before today. Road trip!
Almost thought I was about to see a Max and Ruby episode.
Really? Why so?
Bruh the thumbnail was like that for me too lol
Yeah. WTF is that the thumbnail?
Seriously. Why so?
I stayed for the post credits scene, and was not disappointed.
🍻
Thank you! If it weren’t for you I’d have missed that, you made me click on play again, and it was worth it 😂😂😂
Yeah, it's a crime to not even go to the end credits so to hear this stuff.
@@annegriffith6905 😂 Tripped me right out. Was away from the screen but could still hear. Thought it was God, about to tell me it was "time at the bar" 🤣
@@justliam2768 😉🥂
I was born and raised in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, and I've never heard of this incident before. Crazy how it never got as popular, especially considering that (unlike Roswell) there were no flying crafts remotely similar to what crashed in existence at the time.
I'm glad you stated that it was Aurora, Texas. When I saw "Aurora," I assumed it was about Colorado.
Lol, people from texas confuse Arlington, Texas with Harlingen, Texas.
Or Aurora IL, you know, where Wayne and Garth broadcast Wayne's World!?
@@vickierayhill4637 I may have seen the Saturday Night Live sketch the movie was based on, but I've never seen the movie.

They were looking for their buddies skull in Charlie's dad's saddlebag..
Well now we know why he didn’t want to get involved with the authorities. Yikes.
There is a skull there. Good catch!!
I was hoping someone would mention the scull, why would it be on his horse?
@@ericmoody3944 it's an easter egg
@@montanajohn4626 ahhh ok thanks for clearing that up....
So are we gonna talk about the skull just chilling on the dad's horse in the first scene?
I’m so glad someone said something 🤣
@@multitudesgallery30513 I wasn't the first comment but yeah lol
You mean the same kinda skull they use as a logo? Pretty sure it's an Easter Egg.
I just moved to the area and it's cool to learn some local history from an unexpected source!
Please keep the quality UFO & Alien videos coming. Its my all time favorite subject when talking about creatures, ghost and other extremely fascinating mysteries and stories.
Anyway, have a great day and keep up the quality content.
Check out Preston Dennett.
Narration is flawless as always 👌
I love the UFOS and Alien video's.
me too! 🛸👽
Same here
Me too. Wish there were more of them, and some good channels devoted solely or mostly to the subject, as there are with Bigfoot and Dogman channels.
Can anyone recommend some more new ufo and alien videos?
@@JHann1990 Think Anomalous has a lot of good ones.
RIP fellow traveller and friend. 🌹
I remember when the investigators wanted to excavate the site where the E.T was potentially buried. They were denied. Next day they went to the site and the marker was gone and there was a 6 inch pipe sticking out of the ground. Like someone had drove the pipe used a vacuum truck sucked everything out of that area. Then probably filled it back with a filler.
This program is so well executed. Brilliant artwork, great research, and the narrator’s voice resonates.
I absolutely love these little gags on the end!!!
I love the varied descriptive vocabulary that keeps your interest fully engaged, how well the narration is done, the obvious research that has gone into the story, and the beautiful artwork. This is an excellent channel. Thank you!
Glad you guys started doing sponsors, you deserve the money.
How is it that these people treated extraterrestrial life with such reverence, and today they are treated with such hostility and outright madness. We have really lost our way as a species.
Love the beer quote at the end 🍻 cheers!
UFO stories are always interesting, and your narration continues to be top notch.
Thanks for the video.
More animated weird and unexplainable cases please I love them. Great narrator too. More we need More👍💯
You guys should see some of the other articles circulating the main stream newspapers in that period. They were all fighting for dominance. So they wrote alot of crazy stories. It was pretty well understood by the public at the time that the Jersey Devil kinda stuff was BS. Also the Wright Flyer flew forward in the other direction and the pilot laid down. Still I love the stories, you guys definitely have your own thing. That's important, keep it up
In 1835 a New York journalist started a story that scientists had discovered a race of 'bat people' living on the Moon. Apparently it was believed by many for several years.
Last time I was this early Rudolph Fentz fell out of time.
Last time I was this early the dystopian future was still the future
No we are pretty much in it right now. 😁
I'm a simple man I see a new bed time stories video, I click.
Very surprised this story was not told years ago on here! This is an extremely important story in UFOlogy. More so than Rosewell I think.
Burying the pilot was a very awesome and beautiful thing to do
Richie's Seth McFarlane impression was well worth watching through the credits.
Why is there a skull hanging from the father's saddle?
Don't ever leave me again, Bedtime Stories.
Bedtime Stories Team: PLEASE start posting links for the source material you use for these stories! It would help to us viewers in our own research, as well as led greater weight to the stories themselves.
This story is a case in point. It contains several pieces of new information I'd not previously heard of or read anywhere, so I'd dearly love to know their source.
Great episode as always. Thanks for treating it with a degree of seriousness rarely offered the subject.
Just go on Google, you lazy bint. It's not hard to find information on any of these.
@@dominicchessington7211 gave yourself an upvote?
@@ajctrading No?
Awww my beloved mystery airships!
Considering the speed at which it was descending, and the ease with which it exploded when it crashed against the mill at that speed, I'm inclined to think this was an airship of some kind and not an alien ship. There's also how little notoriety it sparked at the time. An actual alien ship would have been a much bigger event.
Well then what about the pilot that was described as a small being not of this world and the “Martian pilot”? And the hieroglyphic type writing that they found on a piece of the ship?
20:27 omg what? Was that? Mm anyone noticed that? Have you always had these added in the end?
I fell a sleep playing the video and got woken up by this lol
WTF? No notification at all, and this is about the only channel that I care enough to hit the bell for. I just wanted to let you guys know.
Why is there a skull in the saddle bag?
Alien being getting a Christian burial! Now, I need a beer! Great episode guys!
A toast to honor the fallen pilot. RIP.
@@TimeCircleBlue I’ll take a shot to that.

I love bedtime stories I get very excited when a new episode airs. Keep them coming.
This story seriously warmed my heart.

(The Zone of Silence) in the northern desert of Mexico. Thanks
14:45 I love how Wright Flyer is animated flying backwards :D
Well, we WERE going back in time to review all of this, after all.
This channel is my favorite out of all in its category! Keep it up big Dawg!!
The human skull in Charlie's dad's saddle bag as the pair head out to work is ---- what? Oh OK. Bedtime Stories says it's an Easter Egg riffing on the B.S. logo & to look out for more in other videos. I'm gonna go back to a few now.
Sleeping beauty and Bedtime stories needed to happen much sooner.
I love this channel, to bad I can't show its content to my family because they can only understand Spanish.
NEW BEDTIME STORIES AND ITS ABOUT AURORA!?!? TODAY IS STARTING OUT TO BE BETTER THAN I THOUGHT!!!
Ive been up for 72 hours as Im watching this, and the art work is frickin' AMAZING! I'm so sleep deprived that all of the lines are swirling like I took 5 tabs of Lysergic Acid LOL
Edit: I'm not driving today or using any power tools, so ill be ok :)
I think it's nice you showed a clip of Max & Ruby for when a 5-10 year old watches this and he's never able to sleep again he can use Nord VPN to stream all the Max & Ruby on his personnel streaming app
7:25 Actually the Roswell incident only made a brief ripple in the news media back in 47. It didn't really arouse much interest and was largely forgotten until the late 1970s when William Moore and Stanton Freidman connected it to the San Augustin Plains crashed saucer report and created the version that we all know today complete with alien bodies and military cordons.
Another interesting Bedtime story. The only downer for me was the scene of the early "Wright" flier flying backwards across the screen. Grant with those early aircraft that could happen if they were being flown into a stronger headwind..........
Lol oopsie
The way they gave that alien a burial reminds me a little of Clifford Simak's short story, "A Death in the House." One of my favorite stories of all time. Read it. You won't be disappointed.
Can you do an episode on the Tunguska event?
Omg 2 new videos this week. How did I miss these. I love this channel.
Thank you bedtime stories! I love seeing your uploads. Great creepy stuff as usual ❤️❤️👏👏
Nice art, but ya got the Wright Flyer flying backwards in that scene. 😅
Agreed! Good catch.
MORE ALIUM STORIES!!! You narrate them so well!
Yes!! MOAR alium stories!!! Agreed! 😁
Ayy lmao
I have been waiting for this :)
As always, great content and presentation. Thanks for making these great videos.
"Beer is very spiritual" whut? Silly. Great vid. Thanks again.
Um...yes it is. It's thought to be one of the first "religious" or "ritualistic" drugs known to man
What's with the Human skull on the saddle in the first graphic?
I made a comment about that too before I saw yours
Loved this episode, it’s my favorite in the past couple months, keep up the great work Bedtime Stories : )
I am from the area in the video. There is a story of a judge from Waxahachie who encountered four men having lunch near a stream next to a large airship in the 1890s. When approached, the men were friendly and cordial. When asked where they were from they replied that they were from a place that was unknown to people here, that was on the other side of Antarctica across the great ice plain, much like a flat earth idea of Antarctica being a barrier to other lands. It's been recorded in local history since the time of the event. Who knows if it really happened. But the man had good standing in the community. Lots of tall tails in these parts as well however. Makes an interesting story. Great video. As always well done.
03:30 What's with the skull? X_x Is that an Easter Egg?
08:45 I don't think it disintegrated upon hitting the windmill, but it clipped the top off and kept going until it crashed into the ground.
14:02 Thing is, I was under the impression that type of arthritis could happen naturally as well. So, there is still some degree of plausible deniability.
I've seen the photo of the "Arthritis" Oates had, and whatever the wreckage caused to contaminate the well water certainly did not cause that. In the photo, his fingers were horribly misshapen and swollen to the point the swells were about the size of golf balls. Whatever had affected his hands, It was Not Arthritis in any way.
@@forsaken_king27 Aluminium poisoning can apparently cause 'Bone pain, deformities, and fractures', a substance that was confirmed to be contaminating the well. Not sure if that helps, but it was an observation my dad made while watching the episode.
@@EquestriaExploration Glad to know tbh in case I'm wrong. Thanks, m80. Either way, it is odd.
@@forsaken_king27 No probs!^^
@@EquestriaExploration Ty, I forgot the proper name for it.
Thank you for posting this!
These videos are always top quality. Keep up the great work guys!
This sounds like a hydrogen airship crash. Relatively slow, burned away when crashed, and left aluminum wreckage. Airships were starting to gain traction in the latter half of the 1800s, with internal combustion engines becoming small enough to power one.
I agree that’s the most likely explanation
So you're saying that a small child-like individual in rural Texas built an advanced disc shaped metal airship all by themselves, even though this was something that was only being done by the industrialized nations of Europe at great expense, and not only is the design of this airship more advanced than the European ones but then the creator took it out for a flight without informing anyone, with no fanfare, and was killed? Then later, his body and the pieces of his exploded (not burned) airship were removed by a third party, and someone testified it never happened at all despite many townspeople witnessing it and with ample evidence at the crash-site? An extremely compelling explanation for sure. What next? You going to debunk the Rendelsham Forest Incident by saying it was the result of a wild party?
@@sandvichman327 Inventors of the time were known to be secretive, not wanting anyone to steal their ideas or designs before they could patent it or whatever. Several years ago some sunken submarine was found in the states (don't recall offhand when or where, maybe Illinois?). It had a single occupant and a dog. It's just presumed to be an inventor who was working on a submarine. No one even really knew about the Wright brothers first test flights before they were ready to invite the press. And even then Europeans didn't believe their claim until they demonstrated their airplane in Europe. So an unknown, solitary inventor working on an airship isn't impossible to consider, especially given the era it occurred in. And the airship was cylindrical, not disc shaped. As for the child-like stature, it could have simply been a shorter than average height person. I've not seen anything stating the exact height of the pilot.
I got so happy when I saw that your team has uploaded today. This made my day significantly way much better. I am really grateful towards your content.
That biplane (that looked similar to the Wright Flyer) was actually depicted moving backwards. The Flyer was a canard configuration, that is, the horizontal stabilizer was in front. That vertical control surface was the rudder and it was in back.
The canard was the intuitive way to conceive of an airplane because both the main wings and the horizontal stabilizer would produce lifting forces. Conventional airplanes (with the tail in the back) have the airfoils of the horizontal stabilizer inverted, so it produces a downward force.
What a lame dad not letting his son see something that crazy right away.
Life was different then. Their cattle was their livelihood. First things first and all. And not much stupid FOMO to be controlled by either lol.
Definetly a blimp that crashed.. perhaps burning or punched in the aft section - which would explain its slow speed and instant explosion upon hitting a rudimentary windmill. Such blimps/airships may have been being tested at the time.
I'm inclined to believe this as well. The first powered airship had taken to the air 45 years before and the late 1890s was a particularly active period of powered airship development, though mostly in France.
Amazing as always this is really interesting case of Ufo incident
Ahh i was waiting for this episode, great job
