Top Comment from another video said this: “Hi, I'm a biologist, maybe I can help. The particular microbes found in the blobs were specific ones used as agriculture pest control. Also, there was a government agricultural research agency right next to the town. I think they did some experimental crop dusting, and did the wrong coordinates. And because it's the government, they decided to lie low and not claim responsibility.”
This kind of ties in to my theory, obviously I have no idea for sure it's just a theory. My theory is that this potentially wasn't intended to be something sinister, and was an attempt to test out a delivery service to drop something to protect crops in the event of a catastrophe that was either dropped on Oakville as a test (which they believed would be harmless to people but unfortunately wasn't). OR, it was done in a controlled field somewhere else and parts of it were picked up into the clouds and later rained down elsewhere. - copy and pasted so I don't keep writing the same thing out haha.
That interpretation makes a lot of sense. When there are seeming gaps in information, dark conspiracies sprout like mushrooms in the Olympic Forest. Conspiracies are fun stuff because, as they say, anything is possible!
That’s what I absolutely believe. It was a mishap albeit a BIG one and they wanted to keep it under wraps hence the MIB. They hadn’t calculated properly the velocity or the direction of the winds.
I live 15 minutes from oakville. My husband was 14 when this happened and lived a few towns over. He said it happened there too at the same time. He says he remembers seeing it on all the cars windshields.
I live in a town where there is a military base. One day the meteorologist’s notice something on the radar that looked like a big storm, but there was no rain coming down in the area. When they went to the area to investigate, they found small pieces of thin metal (called Chaff) all over the ground. To this day, the military denies having anything to do with it. Past history has shown us that governments/military have no problem conducting experiments on their own people and lying about it. So I wouldn’t be surprised if they were behind this as well.
It makes no sense that the government would cover up chaff. That’s used regularly by military airplanes and was released in large amounts during WWII. Maybe the aliens dropped it this time? 😁
Chaff isn't dangerous, nor would it be used to experiment on a population. It's used to confuse radar on planes and guided missles. As in planes release it to confuse the radar of attacking planes and it's missles. Probably dropped during a training exercise
Same thing happened to us in Eastern Europe, 31.10.2019. It was like 21:00… a goo which we thought was rain did fall from the sky for at least 15 minutes. Me and fellow drivers stopped at Lukoil gas station on highway Trakia, Sofia-Burgas. We all thought there was something wrong with the windshield fluid on our cars.
It happened here in the UK, too. 2019 sounds about right. Nobody knew what to make of it. I remember my wife saying it was all over the cars & plants when she woke up one morning at her parents' place in Dagenham.
@@Londonsabers I've always wondered what exactly happened then... no news, no nothing... we were maybe 10 drivers who stopped at that exact gas station to buy new fluid...
And there was the now derelict Russian woodpecker radio array (which is in the Chernobyl exclusion zone) which disrupted radios in Europe. It’s purpose was unclear and said to be everything from mind control to manipulation of the weather
In my very unprofessional opinion, it was definitely the government/military. All of a sudden, all of the evidence and samples went missing after the fact that men in black suits showed up?! That's no coincidence. If you never hear from me again, you know why. Lol. Great episode.
Absolutely it was the government and or military testing something. Wish people had kept samples of the stuff and not given everything to the MIB’s. Filthy corrupt government.
It's always easy to say that we really had all the evidence but not really... because government took it, that, them evidence, trust me and buy some healing crystals while at it, will you?
Sounds like Tons of the strange goo we Germans have known for centuries. Our ancestors just called it unpoetically "Sternenrotz". Until today its unclear what Sternenrotz is, but often its confused with fungi. Oh, and Sternenrotz is always connected to rain. //"Sternenrotz" could be translated to "Star snot"
i looked for the translation of Sternenrotz and found there is an article in Wikipeadia about it. According to it this phenomenon is called in my country with an eloquent but rather less elegant name, equivalent to 'moon's poo'. 😨
Considering the US military tested a mosquito delivery bomb during WWII on a town in the South and tested LSD as a chemical weapon on an Italian village in the 1950s I can totally believe they would test a high-altitude bioweapon delivery system armed with something less deadly on a random town on the Pacific coast.
You're saying Oakville is made up? I'm not generally a big conspiracy theory guy but from everything I've read there's never been any suggestion that this just flat out didn't happen. A few newspapers ran the story at the time and obviously the Unsolved Mysteries episode did interviews with a number of these people, as did a recent Netflix documentary.
There have been other similar cases. First, you have an incident that inspired the movie, "The Blob". It's rarely talked about but in 1950 Philadelphia, 2 police officers saw a purple gelatinous blob float down from the sky. When inspected, it was rather large and seemed to pulse, possibly trying to actually move. When they turned their flashlights off, it seemed to glow. It dissolved quickly after hitting the ground. Next there was something called "Angel Hair". In 1917 at the Miracle of Fatima and in the '50s in France, Spain, New Zealand and Australia after UAP sightings there was a sticky, fibrous, white "Angle Hair" like pasta thing that floated down after the UAP's left. It quickly dissolved. The last known sighting of this was in 2014 in Sri Lanka. And lastly, at least I can recall, was the Red Rain that fell in 2012 Sri Lanka. This caused the people to really be worried about impending doom. When inspected by scientists, they unexpectedly found that this rain did have red blood cells, just like the ones found in humans as well as arsenic and silver. This Red Rain was first described in Homer's "Illiad" from either the 7th or 8th century, so it's been around for a while. Our world and what's around us can be so perplexing and unusual and scary and cool, all at the same time. I'm 45 years old and it's still fun to live in a world with child-like amazement, every once in a while. All the best.
During the autumn season me n a friend parade the fields in the wee hours in the uk last year we got caught in a storm thought nothing of it other than wanting to go home as it was such a downpour that our waterproofs were no longer waterproof, by the time we got to the exiting field the rain had stopped but we noticed all over there was gelatinous red blobs that looked like animal entrails but honestly I immediately thought of this case but reassured my friend that it was probably just an ample amount of slime mould or something explanable but honestly who knows
@@lewiitoons4227Biological agents are usually deployed through what is called a " vector ". The gelatinous substance is the protective vector that keeps the agent viable for a short period of time. The vector dissolves and the Biological agents are released. In most cases these Biological agents would be used at night, because the ultraviolet rays of the sun would destroy them.
I remember reading about the "blob." The cops were investigating a ufo sighting or possibly a landing when they discovered it. If I remember correctly, the spot where the blob dissolved was later said to be slightly radioactive.
My goodness, you sure did a lot of information gathering! I recall reading about a couple of these reports, but why Sri Lanka? There has to more to this mystery that we're not allowed to hear about. As for Homer, I do wonder about him and his tales - but I also wonder about Greek fire. Thanks!
We live in the desert southwest of the U.S. This past winter, we had a a snowfall that was normal for the high-desert altitude. However, the snow seemed almost too light in the way it fell and some of it did not melt off when I got into the heated car. I’d gone thru a drive-thru that a.m. for a coffee and I left the window rolled down as I waited to get to the window. The snow fell into the car, but that was refreshing to me as most of our year is warm if not blazing. Anyway, by the time I returned home after dropping off my child at school, I noticed that there were white fibers now on the door where the snow hit. I flicked at it with a fingernail and you could determine that it looked like cottony fibers. They were on my coat, too. They did not go away unless you wiped them off with a wet towel. Yes, military bases are in my state. Yes, there are exercises done as well, but I heard nothing out of the ordinary. Conspiracy theory is not my bag so I did not pursue it, just thought it strange.
@bubbletractor The ash aspect is a good description of its weight. However, our volcanoes, on the western escarpment, are quite extinct. The cottonwood trees release their light, cotton-like seeds in summer, so that isn't it. Ash from a manufacturer? A crematory? Possibly, but it would have been brought miles in with the weather as we've never experienced it before here. Unfortunately, it fits in with the 'seeding clouds' conspiracy, which I don't subscribe to, but I don't completely toss out either.
Listening to this while thunderstorms are rolling through is PERFECT! Sadly, I'm from the gulf and surrounded by petrochemical plants - I KNOW my rain is toxic 😂
Cancer Alley, Louisiana, here. St. Charles parish to be exact. Literally within eyesight of multiple plants on both sides the river. I can honestly say, chronic migraines, auto immune disorders and cancer runs rampant here.
@@animalsinorbit oh I've heard of St Charles parish! My condolences to you and your community ♥ I'm from La Porte/Pasadena. I think people think I'm being hyperbolic when I say we're surrounded by chemical plants when I'm being as literal as possible. Chemical plants are within walking distance of the hospitals, every public school, daycare, and backyards. The one section of land without chemical plants is used for the port of Houston. So it's filled with trains transferring toxic waste and chemicals, entire mountains made from storage containers, and the massive port of freight ships. If you go in the water at our "beaches", you get covered in a thin oily film that the water beads off of. Needless to say, I'm infertile, disabled due to a genetic autoimmune disease, and roughly 10yrs left to live. Everyone I grew up with has an autoimmune or endocrine disorder, cancer, or infertile. Not to get political but this is a deep red state and we are offered no help while our governor is actively courting Asian countries to send more of their manufacturing jobs and chemical plants to Texas. But sure, they're "pro-life"
@@lolalalia4119 I'm sorry about your situation that really sucks. I hope everything goes well for you. And I wouldn't count on any political figure being concerned with any actual problems. There's no money in fixing things.
@@animalsinorbit I feel ya! And thank you for the well wishes. I'm cool with it. Best not to get upset about the things you can't change. I heard once that when someone gets your goat, it's cuz you weren't keeping a watchful eye on your goat and they got away from you. I can't be mad or upset about politicians unless I allow them to get my goat. Next time someone or thing upsets you, just say, "my goat got got!" You'll laugh so hard that you'll be reminded of the absurdity of it all (it being life) and that's it best just to chill the F out 😂
Oh this was interesting for sure. I feel like I may have heard about the blobs as a one off thing years ago, but your research shows so much more was involved than I thought! Great episode.
Same! Born and raised in the Hanford area. Wish I could get stats on the rates of cancer in the populous. I cannot believe it's this prevalent everywhere.
@@diannaburton357 You're onto something. I was always wondering why so many americans have cancer. I'm eastern european, we are not the healthiest either but cancer is pretty rare.
Biological and chemical weapons experiment by the military. U.S. navy? Oakville being the experiment location because of its isolation and small population?🤔
I served in the US army for 13 years from 1995 to 2009 and I am absolutely certain we were given experimental treatments. No one needs THAT many injections.
When they ran the operation Seaspray in San Fran, sometime after WW2, people got crazy UTIs, one person died. US government absolutely tests stuff on citizens, who arent willing, informed participants. This sounds very much like government job, with samples disappearing and intimidation to boot.
FINALLY, I HAVE BEEN REQUESTING MANY PEOPLE TO DO A VIDEO ABOUT THIS. I HABE SPENT OVER A YEAR TO GET WHY FILES TO DO THIS. THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO. The worst part about this is the fact all of these symptoms are dang near similar to covid 19....
I REMEMBER THIS! I was an elementary school aged kid at the time, about an hour away from Oakville. After a heavy rain there were little blobs on the ground, about the size of a grain of rice and clear. Imagine taking clear gelatin and mixing it up with a fork, that was exactly what it looked like. Of course I picked them up and squished them between my fingers, it wasn’t sticky and felt just like jello. It wasn’t a lot, a speck here or there. Lasted a few days before they dissolved in the rain. Always wondered what that was.
Do you remember any effects on your health or anyone else in the area getting sick around that time? If the falling goo was something toxic, it would be odd if it didn't affect every community it landed on.
A good friend from highschool told me back in the mid 2010's that he'd been part of this incident. He said he was on a military medical ship off shore and that all the military involvement was to locate a suspected Chinese submarine that was very close off the shore. He said the Chinese submarine had actually been severely crippled via a hit by a torpedo He said the illness that the civilians suffered from resulted from exposure to radiation leaking from the submarine. The submarine got away but radiation remained in the area, killing millions of sea creatures and keeping people sick for a long while. The continued military presence in the area was the Navy trying to trace the submarine's retreat & making sure it didn't contaminate a larger area. He said he treated many sailors for radiation poisoning after the first incident, but that he doesn't believe anyone ever died.
While that claim could explain the sickness, it doesn't really explain the blobs? Or why people didn't get sick around the coast, but did in a small community miles further inland?
@@TheTapeLibrary He said planes sprayed something at night over the land, so I'm guessing the blobs were some sort of decontamination solution. And the people who got sick inland were contaminated from updrafts of radioactive water that formed during the warmth of the day, floated inland, then descended at night. Basically the water-cycle as we know it.
@@TheTapeLibrary I didn't ask a bunch of questions because telling me seemed to be bothering him & he seemed to be just wanting to get the incident off his chest. When I did ask questions he seemed to act like I was questioning the validity of his story. He said it was an incident that could've started world war 3 and it caused many civilians to be injured, so it was quite obviously a touchy subject for him. He said that a few months later he was transferred to a Navy base in Alaska, where he conducted physical therapy for injured seamen. He said it was boring as hell because he basically watched people do simple exercises, walking and doing simple movements, and made sure they didn't hurt themselves during their therapy.
@@Estes705 Huh, that's very interesting. I'm not a scientist, but it makes sense. The government being quiet about it would have been to prevent panic and a ratcheting up of international tension.
That's a cute story, but it doesn't add up. Why would radiation turn rain into goo? Why would there be six separate incidents of said rain goo from one damaged submarine? Heck, why would a damaged submarine produce radiation? That sounds like a cover story, sorry.
About Manta: I bought some of these last time they sponsored a video! I mainly use them for migraines. I wanted the ones with speakers in the ears so that I could listen to ASMR and still be comfortable and block out the light. They work great! They’re super comfy. I also got the cooling eye patches. Love those. I’m not paid to promote them or anything and I have no affiliation with them or the Tape Library. I just rarely see people mention the sponsor of a video in their comments and I feel like a review from someone who took advantage of the discount would be helpful! So that you know a real person did indeed by them, and I do indeed love them. I love supporting my favorite channels, and purchasing from a sponsor using the link or specific discount code is really helpful for them. So if you were on the fence about the Manta masks, I’m just here to tell you they are absolutely worth it :3
I was actually wondering about them and if anyone had tried them. I get migraines too and suffer from insomnia so anything that can help is worth a try. Thanks foe the feedback. ☺
@stacynapier26 I was part of the Manta mask kickstarter and have been a huge supporter for years now. I get migraines really badly and the masks are great for creating complete darkness. I really want to try the one with the speakers.
There was some strange oily substance that fell last year on cochise county arizona. It was during monsoon season, I was in Tucson and missed it but everyone in my town in cochise county caught a weird mid summer cold except those of us who weren't present during the "rainfall"
It’s strange to me how people in England say “disorientated” and people in the US say “disoriented”. I looked it up to make sure I wasn’t hearing things too. It is an English thing. Great video!! Love yr channel so much!! ✌🏻👻💙
@@deliveryguy7402 That, too. It's spelled Aluminum. And that's actually how the English used to say it, but it changed over time. The English seem to add letters/syllables to words that aren't there when they say them. Aluminum and disoriented (not TAted) being two of the best examples. The English also used to call football 'soccer.' We former colonials kept the original words and pronunciations, oddly enough. :)
@@darkforestpyxi I teach history and literature, and I've taken in a lot of info on language in the past 17 years or more. It's fascinating! Missing English letters like one that looks like an uncrossed 'f' are fascinating, and why they disappeared from usage. If you look at the original American documents, you'll often see 'Congrefs' instead of 'Congress.' That uncrossed 'f' was another form of 's' back then, but it was so close to being redundant that people stopped using it. The 'Ye Olde English Pub" was not Ye, but THe. It looks like a "Y", but is not quite the same, and it was the letter for the "th" sound. But it too went away. Stuff like that fascinates me, so I've learned a good deal about it over the years. The "Modern History" channel has a lot of great medieval truth vs. myth stuff on it, and there are several great language channels regarding word origins and such.
@@Rootiga But it did? The blobs and rain were a real thing, a few people getting sick here and there may not have been the result of it, but I can assure you, the raining gel were a legitimate thing for Oakville.
Haven’t watched yet as it’s still too early before my nightly podcast binge but I just saw you posted and wanted to say I can’t wait. Every week I anticipate tape library and night drive. Thank you. You help me keep some sanity in my life. I can’t control much, but I can control what I listen to and both your channels and be busta give me things to look forward to in my current life
I heard about this story before and I think the military/government has to do something with it.. Like the movie "The Mist" nothing but military experiments.. Thanks for the upload, The Tape Library..💖
I was completely obsessed with Unsolved Mysteries as a kid and watched it every time it was on. I remember the segment they did about this. In my opinion, something being tested got into the atmosphere, into the clouds, and when it rained, it fell on the town on Oakville. But....what was it???
i used to live a few miles down the road in Rochester. we had a dog when i was in high school who started getting huge tumors all over his body and when taken to the vet she asked where we lived and said "OH, you live on *that* side of the train tracks" and refused to elaborate. they were apparently benign but he ended up dying suddenly a year later from sezuires. i honestly couldn't guess what it was, this was around '06/'07 so i never saw anything or personally knew anyone who did, i didn't even find out about this incident until years after i had moved away. i will say that Oakville is home to a largely Native population, the Chehalis Tribe, and well, our government isn't known for their kindness towards Native people. it wouldn't surprise me in the least if they were testing something funky and decided that was the best group of people to try it out on
That was very interesting. I've lived in the Puget Sound area for the past 17 years and this is the first I've heard of this incident. Definitely has the feel of military shenanigans.
oh ok, you've lived there 17 years and never heard anything at all about it until a scary stories youtube channel told you about it. Well, now one has told the story, don't be surprised if you hear it from similar kinds of channels quite often, and you can say "well if so many people are saying it happened for clicks on youtube, it must have _really_ happened!"
Gotta say, me too! I was living in Kitsap County in 1994 and I've never heard of Oakville! But I just did my research and this sounds like the facts are there
That was excellent,I'd not heard of this, clearly it was something strange that had gone on otherwise there wouldn't have been the interest from those three men and missing evidence, sadly they'll never get an answer,all the military have to say is they had nothing to do with it and the case is permanently closed but the sheer thought of the fact that they could do something like this is frightening, using their own civilians without a second thought of what happens to lives ,towns, livestock beggars belief,it really brings home that there is no value in us minions whatsoever
I’m super interested in the men in black - found it curious they showed up here. Nick redfern does a show on them - I think TL should get him on here to talk about them ;)
TL - as always, u give us the most interesting true stories that are so fascinating. I also love ur narrating. Ur voice is so calm and pleasant to listen too. I always look forward to both of ur channels new posts. -AP
I’ve commented this elsewhere. To quote Wendigoon. - And remember kids, the next time that somebody tells you, 'The government wouldn't do that,' oh yes they would"
And to paraphrase Count Dankula: "yeah the CIA did all that horrible shit in the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s but dont worry they are totally different now and wouldnt do something like that again."
The first lie told is the first truth believed and elections are elaborate circle jerk parties for TEMP employees and we're the temp agency. You'll never know the names of those *really* running the show. Hence why hardly no one knows who the Bechtels are 😂
I remember watching this on Unsolved Mysteries the original Unsolved Mysteries Back in The late 80s When I was a little girl. Very scary and I definitely think it was biochemical warfare basically.
That was fsscinating! I don't remember this at all so I wonder if it ever got national coverage in the US. Great job telling it, thanks for all your hard work! See you on Night Drive
It's not shocking to those of us who have served in the military. They used us as guinea pigs for all kinds of drugs and vaccines. Beware, and read the fine print of the contract before enlisting in any branch of the military. I didn't join the army to wage war with my own people, and neither did 99% of my fellow soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines.
What’s wild is I grew up in a neighboring town about 15 miles from Oakville. I was in my early teens in ‘94, and we would have been in that 20-mile range that was purportedly affected. I have no memory whatsoever about this event, outside possibly one of the major network Seattle affiliates (probably Kiro7) doing a side story about airplane gel causing panic in the area. I remember that story but can’t recall if it was Oakville or somewhere else; and if it was in ‘94 or later 90’s. Just did a cursory keyword search on the blobs and Oakville with our local news (both network affiliates and Aberdeen’s The Daily World)… nothing. Feel like I need to go hit up the microfilm index at my hometown local library now. 😂
Unfortunately you can only look at microfilm in the middle of the night, while it rains outside and you sit alone as the only person in a massive library. Or so films have told me.
I've heard about 'accidental toilet dumps from airplanes'; some are embarrassingly true. But the toxic biological aspect of these so-called 'rains' is concerning. Let's hope whoever is responsible gets their funding yanked.
Great episode! I remember when this happened and seeing it on unsolved mysteries. Honestly, this one was every bit as creepy as your other videos! Just for a different reason. Thank you 😊
I lived in washington state for nearly a decade and everytime I hear somebody say it's a weird and spooky place it rings a loud bell. That vouldn't possibly be more true. I've never experienced anything like it. The whole place just has a weird fey vibe to it. It makes affects your thoughts. You might say it's just the effect of b2ring surrounded by so much vast and primordial wilderness; that it works on your imagination. But it really does have a strange feel. It has strange effects on the mind. It just seems to be close to some other world. You have to experience it to understand it. I wouldn't call the mood there sinister but it's definitely eerie. That strange and inexplicable things happen there all the time is pretty much a fact of life for residents. Who knows what the weird vibe of the place might influence or tempt somebody to do; particularly the military. If I believed that Great Old Ones existed I'd think one was asleep in Washington for sure.
Unrelated but I had insomnia years ago lack of sleep can make you see some weird stuff or was it the fact I was up at 2 3 4 am seeing these things when normally I’d be asleep who knows. Great story
This is new information I just learned about my state. Interesting and honestly not super strange, especially since we hand the Hanford site that eventually shut down... Washington State has some strange history
This is one of those events that makes me get out the tin foil hat. There's too many weird things for it to be nothing but a weird weather phenomenon. Great episode!
I liked your comment, but just want to make sure I understand, did you mean to day that there were too many weird events for it to be ANYTHING but a weather event?

Over on the east coast, we do have jellyfish that look like round blobs. They're the size of a quarter, and don't sting if you touch them. But I don't see how even a colony would be enough to cover a town.
Not sure where you are, but at the moment I seem to be getting one day of summer, then the next it's winter. That's been repeated for weeks! I blame the blobs.
I know it likely wasn't intentional mate but that sudden transition at around 9:15 had me and my partner nearly choking on our tea with laughter! 😂 Anyway, another great episode bud. My Lovecraft addled brain immediately thinks of some kind of eldritch creature out at sea that the military attacked, only for debris from its gelatinous, slimy bulk to rain down on poor unsuspecting citizens. 🐙
I love your show, I listen to everything you put out. As someone with experience with the supernatural, I know the stories from this and Nightdrive are true, Mels Hole possible exception. Pls keep up the great work, you are awesome to listen to while gaming
I was also going to say that big animals have apparently dropped from the sky not only through the rain but also hurricanes or typhoons that have even carried big heavy objects such as cars.
I remember this happened not so long ago. Somewhere in America a few year's ago it rained with this gel like substance. I seen it on the news I'm from the UK 🇬🇧 👍
In 1978 military bomber like aircraft over flew Brunswick, Ga. There was a step change increase in the concentration of mosquitoes after the over flights and a sudden increase with flue like symptoms locally. Later I heard that there was some kind of military test of the viability of infecting mosquitoes and those they bit with a flu virus. True? I don't really know...
Good work, thank you! I enjoy these types of mysteries. I live in Eastern Washington, and I remember this incident hitting the news when I was in high school. It was weird!
Almost certainly early cloud seeding tests. We get snow that falls in these small, round balls that mush instead of melt on the East coast. And it's very public that they cloud seed a lot in the winter in this area.
I had never heard of the Oakville rain b4 today 😮. I like alot of other people believe it was the government and possibly military causing this. Smhs😮😮😮
It was a segment on Unsolved Mysteries back in the late 90s. I remember watching it then, and being just 6 years out of the army, in the 54B MOS, I had no doubt that it was a biological warfare experiment. Conducted by who? Great question, because our military isn't authorized to do that since biological warfare was outlawed by our government in the early 70s.
Oh, the agony! Do I watch now at 1pm, or do I wait until dark, until "Creepy O' Clock" ?? Arrhgg!! 😂 Thank you for another great episode, Tape Library 🎃🎃🎃✨️✨️✨️🎃🎃🎃
Wellllll listen to this one now… and do one later at creepy oclock ;) I did… kind of. Been hanging out with TL videos at work today- I listened to this (again) and his haunted movie one so far today… got another hour and a half to go…..which one now??
Great episode! I love your channel. Thanks for covering this story -- even though I live on the west coast and was alive during this event, I'd never heard of it before. It reminds me of a smiliar case in Italy, which I think is also still unsolved.
OK, here's mine. I have no clue what I think this could bee other than a manufactured bio matter - non natural origin synthetic biological material. However, when anyone shows up to all the places with samples, takes the samples, and shuts down all research, and shuts up all researchers, I start squinting - hard - like both eyes. Now, the only question I didn't hear discussed, or see anyone else in comments address was the crops covered by the goop. Were those crops killed, or harvested and processed with the other crops in the area, then distributed to parts unknown? Have I been eating that goop in my cereal since 1994? I still have some of the cereal I bought in 94 because that stuff is also unidentifiable, synthetic bio matter. All I'm saying is "sketchy" is a generous description of how all of those details happened? For instance, how did that cop who stopped at the gas station get sick? It sounded like he took Haz Mat precautions, and was under cover while stopped. Why was he sick? Of all of the animals - pets, crabs, untold numbers of birds - no agency raised a red flag immediately? I know that the habitat of one owl in Washington state can shut down Congressional progress for a year while they decide "bird or pipeline". So how did this mass genocide of wildlife not trigger any nature loons? Sketchy...
Biological warfare agents cannot survive the ultraviolet rays of the sun, so I wouldn't worry about the possibility that you may have eaten crops that were affected. What you do need to worry about is this- what part of our government is still involved with an outlawed method of warfare that our own government outlawed in the 70s? Was this an experiment in a new delivery system for biological agents, or was it a secret immunization operation against another nations biological threats against us, and the government didn't want that other enemy nation to know that we knew about their plans?

The wrong coordinates were over the ocean? I think the pilots would have noticed where they were and not crop dusted the ocean. Bunk.
This kind of ties in to my theory, obviously I have no idea for sure it's just a theory.
My theory is that this potentially wasn't intended to be something sinister, and was an attempt to test out a delivery service to drop something to protect crops in the event of a catastrophe that was either dropped on Oakville as a test (which they believed would be harmless to people but unfortunately wasn't). OR, it was done in a controlled field somewhere else and parts of it were picked up into the clouds and later rained down elsewhere. - copy and pasted so I don't keep writing the same thing out haha.
That interpretation makes a lot of sense. When there are seeming gaps in information, dark conspiracies sprout like mushrooms in the Olympic Forest. Conspiracies are fun stuff because, as they say, anything is possible!
That’s what I absolutely believe. It was a mishap albeit a BIG one and they wanted to keep it under wraps hence the MIB. They hadn’t calculated properly the velocity or the direction of the winds.
@@TheTapeLibraryYeah, right. Experiments are conducted in the night without any warning or explanation to the public isn't sinister at all.
The fact the samples went missing from several places and records are missing tells me everything I need to know.
Me too... those records probably never even existed in the first place.

I live 15 minutes from oakville. My husband was 14 when this happened and lived a few towns over. He said it happened there too at the same time. He says he remembers seeing it on all the cars windshields.

I live in a town where there is a military base.
One day the meteorologist’s notice something on the radar that looked like a big storm, but there was no rain coming down in the area.
When they went to the area to investigate, they found small pieces of thin metal (called Chaff) all over the ground.
To this day, the military denies having anything to do with it.
Past history has shown us that governments/military have no problem conducting experiments on their own people and lying about it.
So I wouldn’t be surprised if they were behind this as well.
It makes no sense that the government would cover up chaff. That’s used regularly by military airplanes and was released in large amounts during WWII.
Maybe the aliens dropped it this time? 😁
Chaff isn't dangerous, nor would it be used to experiment on a population. It's used to confuse radar on planes and guided missles. As in planes release it to confuse the radar of attacking planes and it's missles. Probably dropped during a training exercise
@@scottd1903chaff for radar guided missiles and flares for heat seekers. Someone has played DCS.
Same thing happened to us in Eastern Europe, 31.10.2019. It was like 21:00… a goo which we thought was rain did fall from the sky for at least 15 minutes. Me and fellow drivers stopped at Lukoil gas station on highway Trakia, Sofia-Burgas. We all thought there was something wrong with the windshield fluid on our cars.
It happened here in the UK, too. 2019 sounds about right. Nobody knew what to make of it. I remember my wife saying it was all over the cars & plants when she woke up one morning at her parents' place in Dagenham.
@@Londonsabers I've always wondered what exactly happened then... no news, no nothing... we were maybe 10 drivers who stopped at that exact gas station to buy new fluid...
And there was the now derelict Russian woodpecker radio array (which is in the Chernobyl exclusion zone) which disrupted radios in Europe. It’s purpose was unclear and said to be everything from mind control to manipulation of the weather
@@rottsandspots So many things are unexplainable, it’s mind blowing…
@@VMAdventures88 It was the Americans.
In my very unprofessional opinion, it was definitely the government/military. All of a sudden, all of the evidence and samples went missing after the fact that men in black suits showed up?! That's no coincidence. If you never hear from me again, you know why. Lol. Great episode.
Absolutely it was the government and or military testing something. Wish people had kept samples of the stuff and not given everything to the MIB’s. Filthy corrupt government.
Us common folk are lab rats to the ones in power
it reeks of CIA
Agreed.
It's always easy to say that we really had all the evidence but not really... because government took it, that, them evidence, trust me and buy some healing crystals while at it, will you?
Sounds like Tons of the strange goo we Germans have known for centuries. Our ancestors just called it unpoetically "Sternenrotz". Until today its unclear what Sternenrotz is, but often its confused with fungi. Oh, and Sternenrotz is always connected to rain.
//"Sternenrotz" could be translated to "Star snot"

There was an episode about the rain causing deaths, but it was nothing like this.
Considering the US military tested a mosquito delivery bomb during WWII on a town in the South and tested LSD as a chemical weapon on an Italian village in the 1950s I can totally believe they would test a high-altitude bioweapon delivery system armed with something less deadly on a random town on the Pacific coast.
I cant fibd anything on the incident in italy. Does it have a name?
@@yts70r135 it didnt happen, just like the events of this story. dont trust a word of conspiracy theorists
Not everything unknown has to be "spooky military secrets"
You're saying Oakville is made up? I'm not generally a big conspiracy theory guy but from everything I've read there's never been any suggestion that this just flat out didn't happen. A few newspapers ran the story at the time and obviously the Unsolved Mysteries episode did interviews with a number of these people, as did a recent Netflix documentary.
@@yts70r135 Got the country wrong, woops. It was apparently France, Pont-Saint-Esprit poisoning.
I’ve never heard of 99% of these stories but they hit everytime. Really good work, as always. 😊
There have been other similar cases. First, you have an incident that inspired the movie, "The Blob". It's rarely talked about but in 1950 Philadelphia, 2 police officers saw a purple gelatinous blob float down from the sky. When inspected, it was rather large and seemed to pulse, possibly trying to actually move. When they turned their flashlights off, it seemed to glow. It dissolved quickly after hitting the ground.
Next there was something called "Angel Hair". In 1917 at the Miracle of Fatima and in the '50s in France, Spain, New Zealand and Australia after UAP sightings there was a sticky, fibrous, white "Angle Hair" like pasta thing that floated down after the UAP's left. It quickly dissolved. The last known sighting of this was in 2014 in Sri Lanka.
And lastly, at least I can recall, was the Red Rain that fell in 2012 Sri Lanka. This caused the people to really be worried about impending doom. When inspected by scientists, they unexpectedly found that this rain did have red blood cells, just like the ones found in humans as well as arsenic and silver. This Red Rain was first described in Homer's "Illiad" from either the 7th or 8th century, so it's been around for a while.
Our world and what's around us can be so perplexing and unusual and scary and cool, all at the same time. I'm 45 years old and it's still fun to live in a world with child-like amazement, every once in a while.
All the best.
During the autumn season me n a friend parade the fields in the wee hours in the uk last year we got caught in a storm thought nothing of it other than wanting to go home as it was such a downpour that our waterproofs were no longer waterproof, by the time we got to the exiting field the rain had stopped but we noticed all over there was gelatinous red blobs that looked like animal entrails but honestly I immediately thought of this case but reassured my friend that it was probably just an ample amount of slime mould or something explanable but honestly who knows
@@lewiitoons4227Biological agents are usually deployed through what is called a " vector ".
The gelatinous substance is the protective vector that keeps the agent viable for a short period of time. The vector dissolves and the Biological agents are released.
In most cases these Biological agents would be used at night, because the ultraviolet rays of the sun would destroy them.
I remember reading about the "blob." The cops were investigating a ufo sighting or possibly a landing when they discovered it. If I remember correctly, the spot where the blob dissolved was later said to be slightly radioactive.
My goodness, you sure did a lot of information gathering! I recall reading about a couple of these reports, but why Sri Lanka? There has to more to this mystery that we're not allowed to hear about. As for Homer, I do wonder about him and his tales - but I also wonder about Greek fire. Thanks!
I think you meant to say "Angel hair"
Listening to this while waiting to start work and it’s raining out hits different
We live in the desert southwest of the U.S. This past winter, we had a a snowfall that was normal for the high-desert altitude. However, the snow seemed almost too light in the way it fell and some of it did not melt off when I got into the heated car. I’d gone thru a drive-thru that a.m. for a coffee and I left the window rolled down as I waited to get to the window. The snow fell into the car, but that was refreshing to me as most of our year is warm if not blazing. Anyway, by the time I returned home after dropping off my child at school, I noticed that there were white fibers now on the door where the snow hit. I flicked at it with a fingernail and you could determine that it looked like cottony fibers. They were on my coat, too. They did not go away unless you wiped them off with a wet towel. Yes, military bases are in my state. Yes, there are exercises done as well, but I heard nothing out of the ordinary. Conspiracy theory is not my bag so I did not pursue it, just thought it strange.
That's really strange.
Sounds like some kind of pollutant or ash if i had to guess
Conspiracy Theories = Uncomfortable Truths
very weird!
@bubbletractor The ash aspect is a good description of its weight. However, our volcanoes, on the western escarpment, are quite extinct. The cottonwood trees release their light, cotton-like seeds in summer, so that isn't it. Ash from a manufacturer? A crematory? Possibly, but it would have been brought miles in with the weather as we've never experienced it before here. Unfortunately, it fits in with the 'seeding clouds' conspiracy, which I don't subscribe to, but I don't completely toss out either.
Listening to this while thunderstorms are rolling through is PERFECT! Sadly, I'm from the gulf and surrounded by petrochemical plants - I KNOW my rain is toxic 😂
Cancer Alley, Louisiana, here. St. Charles parish to be exact. Literally within eyesight of multiple plants on both sides the river. I can honestly say, chronic migraines, auto immune disorders and cancer runs rampant here.
That storm yesterday was epic, by the way
@@animalsinorbit oh I've heard of St Charles parish! My condolences to you and your community ♥ I'm from La Porte/Pasadena. I think people think I'm being hyperbolic when I say we're surrounded by chemical plants when I'm being as literal as possible. Chemical plants are within walking distance of the hospitals, every public school, daycare, and backyards. The one section of land without chemical plants is used for the port of Houston. So it's filled with trains transferring toxic waste and chemicals, entire mountains made from storage containers, and the massive port of freight ships. If you go in the water at our "beaches", you get covered in a thin oily film that the water beads off of.
Needless to say, I'm infertile, disabled due to a genetic autoimmune disease, and roughly 10yrs left to live. Everyone I grew up with has an autoimmune or endocrine disorder, cancer, or infertile. Not to get political but this is a deep red state and we are offered no help while our governor is actively courting Asian countries to send more of their manufacturing jobs and chemical plants to Texas. But sure, they're "pro-life"

Wouldn't be the first time. The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment comes to mind, that ran from 1932 to 1972.
Biological and chemical weapons experiment by the military. U.S. navy? Oakville being the experiment location because of its isolation and small population?🤔
I served in the US army for 13 years from 1995 to 2009 and I am absolutely certain we were given experimental treatments. No one needs THAT many injections.
I'm never a conspiracy theorist...unless my government tells me there's no conspiracy 🤣🤣🤣
When they ran the operation Seaspray in San Fran, sometime after WW2, people got crazy UTIs, one person died. US government absolutely tests stuff on citizens, who arent willing, informed participants. This sounds very much like government job, with samples disappearing and intimidation to boot.
FINALLY, I HAVE BEEN REQUESTING MANY PEOPLE TO DO A VIDEO ABOUT THIS. I HABE SPENT OVER A YEAR TO GET WHY FILES TO DO THIS.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO.
The worst part about this is the fact all of these symptoms are dang near similar to covid 19....
Be fr. The government didn’t plan covid 19 if that’s what ur getting at peoples families died from it stop making stupid conspiracy’s it’s insensitive
The immune system only has a limited range of broad options to combat infection, so commonality of symptoms doesn't mean a great deal.
I REMEMBER THIS! I was an elementary school aged kid at the time, about an hour away from Oakville. After a heavy rain there were little blobs on the ground, about the size of a grain of rice and clear. Imagine taking clear gelatin and mixing it up with a fork, that was exactly what it looked like. Of course I picked them up and squished them between my fingers, it wasn’t sticky and felt just like jello. It wasn’t a lot, a speck here or there. Lasted a few days before they dissolved in the rain. Always wondered what that was.
Do you remember any effects on your health or anyone else in the area getting sick around that time? If the falling goo was something toxic, it would be odd if it didn't affect every community it landed on.
A good friend from highschool told me back in the mid 2010's that he'd been part of this incident.
He said he was on a military medical ship off shore and that all the military involvement was to locate a suspected Chinese submarine that was very close off the shore.
He said the Chinese submarine had actually been severely crippled via a hit by a torpedo
He said the illness that the civilians suffered from resulted from exposure to radiation leaking from the submarine.
The submarine got away but radiation remained in the area, killing millions of sea creatures and keeping people sick for a long while.
The continued military presence in the area was the Navy trying to trace the submarine's retreat & making sure it didn't contaminate a larger area.
He said he treated many sailors for radiation poisoning after the first incident, but that he doesn't believe anyone ever died.
While that claim could explain the sickness, it doesn't really explain the blobs? Or why people didn't get sick around the coast, but did in a small community miles further inland?
@@TheTapeLibrary
He said planes sprayed something at night over the land, so I'm guessing the blobs were some sort of decontamination solution.
And the people who got sick inland were contaminated from updrafts of radioactive water that formed during the warmth of the day, floated inland, then descended at night. Basically the water-cycle as we know it.
@@TheTapeLibrary I didn't ask a bunch of questions because telling me seemed to be bothering him & he seemed to be just wanting to get the incident off his chest. When I did ask questions he seemed to act like I was questioning the validity of his story.
He said it was an incident that could've started world war 3 and it caused many civilians to be injured, so it was quite obviously a touchy subject for him.
He said that a few months later he was transferred to a Navy base in Alaska, where he conducted physical therapy for injured seamen. He said it was boring as hell because he basically watched people do simple exercises, walking and doing simple movements, and made sure they didn't hurt themselves during their therapy.
@@Estes705 Huh, that's very interesting. I'm not a scientist, but it makes sense. The government being quiet about it would have been to prevent panic and a ratcheting up of international tension.
That's a cute story, but it doesn't add up. Why would radiation turn rain into goo? Why would there be six separate incidents of said rain goo from one damaged submarine? Heck, why would a damaged submarine produce radiation? That sounds like a cover story, sorry.
About Manta:
I bought some of these last time they sponsored a video! I mainly use them for migraines. I wanted the ones with speakers in the ears so that I could listen to ASMR and still be comfortable and block out the light. They work great!
They’re super comfy. I also got the cooling eye patches. Love those.
I’m not paid to promote them or anything and I have no affiliation with them or the Tape Library. I just rarely see people mention the sponsor of a video in their comments and I feel like a review from someone who took advantage of the discount would be helpful! So that you know a real person did indeed by them, and I do indeed love them.
I love supporting my favorite channels, and purchasing from a sponsor using the link or specific discount code is really helpful for them.
So if you were on the fence about the Manta masks, I’m just here to tell you they are absolutely worth it :3

I was actually wondering about them and if anyone had tried them. I get migraines too and suffer from insomnia so anything that can help is worth a try. Thanks foe the feedback. ☺
@stacynapier26 I was part of the Manta mask kickstarter and have been a huge supporter for years now. I get migraines really badly and the masks are great for creating complete darkness. I really want to try the one with the speakers.

The English also used to call football 'soccer.' We former colonials kept the original words and pronunciations, oddly enough. :)

@@darkforestpyxi I teach history and literature, and I've taken in a lot of info on language in the past 17 years or more. It's fascinating! Missing English letters like one that looks like an uncrossed 'f' are fascinating, and why they disappeared from usage. If you look at the original American documents, you'll often see 'Congrefs' instead of 'Congress.' That uncrossed 'f' was another form of 's' back then, but it was so close to being redundant that people stopped using it. The 'Ye Olde English Pub" was not Ye, but THe. It looks like a "Y", but is not quite the same, and it was the letter for the "th" sound. But it too went away. Stuff like that fascinates me, so I've learned a good deal about it over the years.

I lived in Washington during this time, I remember the news about it then it suddenly went quiet!
I was completely obsessed with Unsolved Mysteries as a kid and watched it every time it was on. I remember the segment they did about this. In my opinion, something being tested got into the atmosphere, into the clouds, and when it rained, it fell on the town on Oakville. But....what was it???
I live in Forks, weird shit like this happening on the peninsula is petty consistent out here.

Nice I’m coming out there this wkend to second beach. Just moved to Kirkland a couple months ago.
i used to live a few miles down the road in Rochester. we had a dog when i was in high school who started getting huge tumors all over his body and when taken to the vet she asked where we lived and said "OH, you live on *that* side of the train tracks" and refused to elaborate. they were apparently benign but he ended up dying suddenly a year later from sezuires. i honestly couldn't guess what it was, this was around '06/'07 so i never saw anything or personally knew anyone who did, i didn't even find out about this incident until years after i had moved away. i will say that Oakville is home to a largely Native population, the Chehalis Tribe, and well, our government isn't known for their kindness towards Native people. it wouldn't surprise me in the least if they were testing something funky and decided that was the best group of people to try it out on
That was very interesting. I've lived in the Puget Sound area for the past 17 years and this is the first I've heard of this incident. Definitely has the feel of military shenanigans.

It is sad and shocking what the mil does to us
It's not shocking to those of us who have served in the military. They used us as guinea pigs for all kinds of drugs and vaccines.
Beware, and read the fine print of the contract before enlisting in any branch of the military.
I didn't join the army to wage war with my own people, and neither did 99% of my fellow soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines.
What’s wild is I grew up in a neighboring town about 15 miles from Oakville. I was in my early teens in ‘94, and we would have been in that 20-mile range that was purportedly affected. I have no memory whatsoever about this event, outside possibly one of the major network Seattle affiliates (probably Kiro7) doing a side story about airplane gel causing panic in the area. I remember that story but can’t recall if it was Oakville or somewhere else; and if it was in ‘94 or later 90’s.
Just did a cursory keyword search on the blobs and Oakville with our local news (both network affiliates and Aberdeen’s The Daily World)… nothing. Feel like I need to go hit up the microfilm index at my hometown local library now. 😂
Unfortunately you can only look at microfilm in the middle of the night, while it rains outside and you sit alone as the only person in a massive library. Or so films have told me.
I've heard about 'accidental toilet dumps from airplanes'; some are embarrassingly true. But the toxic biological aspect of these so-called 'rains' is concerning. Let's hope whoever is responsible gets their funding yanked.
Great episode! I remember when this happened and seeing it on unsolved mysteries. Honestly, this one was every bit as creepy as your other videos! Just for a different reason.
Thank you 😊
Thank you :)
I lived in washington state for nearly a decade and everytime I hear somebody say it's a weird and spooky place it rings a loud bell. That vouldn't possibly be more true. I've never experienced anything like it. The whole place just has a weird fey vibe to it. It makes affects your thoughts. You might say it's just the effect of b2ring surrounded by so much vast and primordial wilderness; that it works on your imagination. But it really does have a strange feel. It has strange effects on the mind. It just seems to be close to some other world. You have to experience it to understand it. I wouldn't call the mood there sinister but it's definitely eerie. That strange and inexplicable things happen there all the time is pretty much a fact of life for residents. Who knows what the weird vibe of the place might influence or tempt somebody to do; particularly the military. If I believed that Great Old Ones existed I'd think one was asleep in Washington for sure.
It looks exactly like that polymer used in diapers that absorbs moisture and turns into little jelly blobs like this
Unrelated but I had insomnia years ago lack of sleep can make you see some weird stuff or was it the fact I was up at 2 3 4 am seeing these things when normally I’d be asleep who knows. Great story
yes!!! thankyou for the new upload!!
Hi TL, interesting mystery about the blobs. Civilians are Guinea pigs for the military quite often.
This is new information I just learned about my state. Interesting and honestly not super strange, especially since we hand the Hanford site that eventually shut down... Washington State has some strange history
Hanford is polluted with radioactive materials that could, without much trouble, leak into the Columbia river, as I understand..
This is one of those events that makes me get out the tin foil hat. There's too many weird things for it to be nothing but a weird weather phenomenon. Great episode!
I liked your comment, but just want to make sure I understand, did you mean to day that there were too many weird events for it to be ANYTHING but a weather event?
its a story and nothing more. none of it is real
@@Rootiga Sure, whatever helps you cope.
@@Rootiga I don't know wether to envy you for being so narrow minded and enjoying the concept of, 'Ignorance is Bliss' or pitty the fact that they are people who are that empty.
It matters not, have a good day.
@AS-qg1xu I mean there's too many weird things for a weather event. It's not JUST a weather event, at least.
Wow! Very strange!
Bro I just realized your up to over 200 k subs 😳😮 awesome 🤙🤙 you deserve it. Love the channel
Thank you! :)
Over on the east coast, we do have jellyfish that look like round blobs. They're the size of a quarter, and don't sting if you touch them. But I don't see how even a colony would be enough to cover a town.
That and wouldn’t the tests reveal that they were jellyfish as well and not bacteria
Your voice makes all anxiety completely disappear and bring me into your Awsome journey. Much love
Tape Library forgive me but I’ve just got to say this… I love the way you say the word Blobs!!😏
What?! Is there something weird about how I say blobs? You've got me self conscious about my blobs now!
@@TheTapeLibrary😚
Awesome as always ❤
5:36 2.50am here in Canberra, Australia 😁
It's a good day when TTL uploads
I will have a rum and coke. We've practically been robbed of summer this year here.
Not sure where you are, but at the moment I seem to be getting one day of summer, then the next it's winter. That's been repeated for weeks! I blame the blobs.
This is really good stuff, my friend. Keep up on it.
ooh imagine if instead of not forecasting a hurricane Michael Fish awoke to having the odd weather pattern happing the next morning.
I know it likely wasn't intentional mate but that sudden transition at around 9:15 had me and my partner nearly choking on our tea with laughter! 😂
Anyway, another great episode bud. My Lovecraft addled brain immediately thinks of some kind of eldritch creature out at sea that the military attacked, only for debris from its gelatinous, slimy bulk to rain down on poor unsuspecting citizens. 🐙
I love your show, I listen to everything you put out. As someone with experience with the supernatural, I know the stories from this and Nightdrive are true, Mels Hole possible exception. Pls keep up the great work, you are awesome to listen to while gaming
thanks for watching!
I was also going to say that big animals have apparently dropped from the sky not only through the rain but also hurricanes or typhoons that have even carried big heavy objects such as cars.
I remember this happened not so long ago. Somewhere in America a few year's ago it rained with this gel like substance. I seen it on the news I'm from the UK 🇬🇧 👍
Hey man first video of yours ive seen. Really enjoyed it. Earned a viewer for sure. Thank you
In 1978 military bomber like aircraft over flew Brunswick, Ga. There was a step change increase in the concentration of mosquitoes after the over flights and a sudden increase with flue like symptoms locally. Later I heard that there was some kind of military test of the viability of infecting mosquitoes and those they bit with a flu virus. True? I don't really know...
Good work, thank you! I enjoy these types of mysteries. I live in Eastern Washington, and I remember this incident hitting the news when I was in high school. It was weird!
The Air force likely was not involved.
That being said, there are "other" agencies that exist.
Think for yourself, question authority.
Thank you once again for another awesome video
Entertaining video. Thank you.
Almost certainly early cloud seeding tests. We get snow that falls in these small, round balls that mush instead of melt on the East coast. And it's very public that they cloud seed a lot in the winter in this area.
who up taping their library right now??!💪🗣️
me?! I guess
😂😂😂😂
Love paranormal and alien stories! Good job! Your channel is well researched and so fun to listen to!
Thanks!
I had never heard of the Oakville rain b4 today 😮. I like alot of other people believe it was the government and possibly military causing this. Smhs😮😮😮
It was a segment on Unsolved Mysteries back in the late 90s.
I remember watching it then, and being just 6 years out of the army, in the 54B MOS, I had no doubt that it was a biological warfare experiment. Conducted by who? Great question, because our military isn't authorized to do that since biological warfare was outlawed by our government in the early 70s.
@truthseeker2321 yea?? Since when do they play by the rules lol. It's very interesting to say the least. Btw, ty 4 your service💘💘💘
Yet another highly enjoyable, really interesting and immersing video.
Can't wait for the next one.
Oh, the agony! Do I watch now at 1pm, or do I wait until dark, until "Creepy O' Clock" ?? Arrhgg!! 😂 Thank you for another great episode, Tape Library 🎃🎃🎃✨️✨️✨️🎃🎃🎃
Wellllll listen to this one now… and do one later at creepy oclock ;) I did… kind of. Been hanging out with TL videos at work today- I listened to this (again) and his haunted movie one so far today… got another hour and a half to go…..which one now??
Great episode! I love your channel. Thanks for covering this story -- even though I live on the west coast and was alive during this event, I'd never heard of it before. It reminds me of a smiliar case in Italy, which I think is also still unsolved.
HELL YEAH ITS TAPE LIBRARY TIME
Another bangerrrr..you keep knockin' em out of the park...keep up the great work
Appreciate it, thank you
OK, here's mine. I have no clue what I think this could bee other than a manufactured bio matter - non natural origin synthetic biological material. However, when anyone shows up to all the places with samples, takes the samples, and shuts down all research, and shuts up all researchers, I start squinting - hard - like both eyes.
Now, the only question I didn't hear discussed, or see anyone else in comments address was the crops covered by the goop. Were those crops killed, or harvested and processed with the other crops in the area, then distributed to parts unknown? Have I been eating that goop in my cereal since 1994? I still have some of the cereal I bought in 94 because that stuff is also unidentifiable, synthetic bio matter.
All I'm saying is "sketchy" is a generous description of how all of those details happened? For instance, how did that cop who stopped at the gas station get sick? It sounded like he took Haz Mat precautions, and was under cover while stopped. Why was he sick? Of all of the animals - pets, crabs, untold numbers of birds - no agency raised a red flag immediately? I know that the habitat of one owl in Washington state can shut down Congressional progress for a year while they decide "bird or pipeline". So how did this mass genocide of wildlife not trigger any nature loons? Sketchy...
Ooooo got both of my eyes getting all squinty too . Good one
Biological warfare agents cannot survive the ultraviolet rays of the sun, so I wouldn't worry about the possibility that you may have eaten crops that were affected. What you do need to worry about is this- what part of our government is still involved with an outlawed method of warfare that our own government outlawed in the 70s?
Was this an experiment in a new delivery system for biological agents, or was it a secret immunization operation against another nations biological threats against us, and the government didn't want that other enemy nation to know that we knew about their plans?
Cereal causes cancer so 🤷🏼♂️
