Speaker 1: Welcome to High Strange.
Speaker 3: At the time I was coming up to eleven, the
Speaker 3: school was very much like a small family. It was
Speaker 3: only one hundred and twenty five people's We were all close.
Speaker 3: It was a nice atmosphere to grow up in. Lunchtime
Speaker 3: came around, I thought I'd rather stay in and read
Speaker 3: a booklin go out in that way there, but some
Speaker 3: of the kids went out. I was a very voracious
Speaker 3: reader at that time. The end of lunchtime, they came in.
Speaker 3: Groups of them were saying that they'd seen something out
Speaker 3: in the playground. A number of them were saying that
Speaker 3: they'd seen an object. They were describing it as a
Speaker 3: flying saucer. It didn't seem like they were having a joke.
Speaker 3: It really didn't. They actually sounded like they meant it.
Speaker 3: But I am a total skeptic. I have no belief.
Speaker 3: I don't believe in UFOs as simple as that. The
Speaker 3: teacher at the time was the headmaster, ralphel Ellen. He
Speaker 3: dismissed it as a joke. The headmaster was dismissing it
Speaker 3: as some wind up that was going on, some joke
Speaker 3: that they were trying to play. We finally broke up
Speaker 3: at the end of school. I'm still not believing it.
Speaker 3: There's no way the flying Source is going to be
Speaker 3: happening around Pembrokeshire. Twinal Bell went at the end of school.
Speaker 3: I went up to the top of the school to
Speaker 3: see if I could actually see anything. Investigated a bit closer,
Speaker 3: I stepped over the primitive fence and as I got
Speaker 3: one foot over, it literally rose up from behind trees
Speaker 3: FROs this thing. It was about forty five feet long, silver.
Speaker 3: It was just rising from behind the trees vertically, no
Speaker 3: sense of propulsion at all. What I'm seeing in front
Speaker 3: of me is real. I've got something in front of
Speaker 3: me that shouldn't exist. But does Yeah, I had no
Speaker 3: problem with accepting that somewhere right in the cosmost they
Speaker 3: might be other life. I didn't think it was a visiting.
Speaker 3: I was looking at this thing. It was going to
Speaker 3: stand here and watch it for as long as I could.
Speaker 3: And that's where the weirdness sort of starts. There was
Speaker 3: a thought in my brain, I should leave. What do
Speaker 3: you mean, a thought something that wasn't mine. There was
Speaker 3: a suggestion there that I should leave the area. So
Speaker 3: it wasn't like instinctual response no, no, no, no no. I
Speaker 3: had absolutely no fear at all. The moment that I
Speaker 3: appreciated what I had in front of me, had that
Speaker 3: thought I should leave. It wasn't to run away out
Speaker 3: of fear. It was more like a caution, please leave
Speaker 3: the area. I've been told to get away. I did run.
Speaker 1: Dave says the thought appeared in his mind. It wasn't fear,
Speaker 1: it wasn't instinct. It was like a third party suggestion
Speaker 1: not to scream or panic, just leave the area.
Speaker 3: Something that didn't come to me until a few years later.
Speaker 3: I can remember getting in the taxi and the journey home.
Speaker 3: The journey home was done in complete silence. All of us,
Speaker 3: including the taxi driver, didn't say a word.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't you guys be talking about this crazy thing you
Speaker 2: just saw.
Speaker 3: That's the weird thing. I was in a car with
Speaker 3: another two witnesses. A group of us had just seen
Speaker 3: a flying saucer a UFO. We said nothing at all. Boy,
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm not asking you to decide what that means. I'm
Speaker 1: asking you to notice how specific it is.
Speaker 3: The taxi dropped me off. About ten minutes later. I
Speaker 3: got out of the taxi, and the moment I saw
Speaker 3: my mother, it was like, Mom just saw a UFO.
Speaker 3: It was like suddenly I'd switched back on again.
Speaker 2: What did you tell your mom?
Speaker 3: I just said, I've just seen a flying saucet.
Speaker 1: Fear is chaotic, This isn't It's procedural, A simple thought.
Speaker 1: Leave the area, and then Dave runs.
Speaker 3: I mean, my mother knows me. There's no disbelief. The
Speaker 3: moment I said it, she instantly saw that I was
Speaker 3: being truthful. We went back down to the school that
Speaker 3: night to have a look. Obviously by them who got
Speaker 3: dark it was February, saw nothing at all. Following day,
Speaker 3: we went back with a local reporter called Hugh Turnbull,
Speaker 3: who worked for the Western Telegraph. We went back down
Speaker 3: the school again, investigated the area in which I'd seen
Speaker 3: the object. What'd you say? There was a broken branch
Speaker 3: telephone pole had been dislodged, which had just been recently repaired.
Speaker 3: The cross piece on the actual pole had been knocked
Speaker 3: at about forty five degrees. They couldn't really put it
Speaker 3: down to anything other than something knocking into it. There
Speaker 3: was no reasonable explanation for anything that we'd seen.
Speaker 1: The ride home, you have three kids who allegedly just
Speaker 1: saw a flying saucer. No adrenaline, no replay, no disbelief,
Speaker 1: just silence. The second Dave got home, everything switches back on.
Speaker 1: He tells his mother and she immediately believes him. She
Speaker 1: can tell by his face. That's the first adult truth
Speaker 1: test in the story.
Speaker 3: By Monday morning, the national press were already phone in
Speaker 3: the school. Monday morning, we got into school. Instantly, the
Speaker 3: headmaster pulled all of the ones who had claimed to
Speaker 3: have seen the UFO to one side and isolated us.
Speaker 3: It's about fourteen of us. He then put us in
Speaker 3: examined conditions, sitting apart from each other, with him observing.
Speaker 3: Gave us all a piece of paper. I said, I
Speaker 3: want you to describe and draw what you saw.
Speaker 1: This is when the head master does something really smart.
Speaker 1: Fourteen kids separated, no collaboration, no discussion, exam conditions, draw
Speaker 1: what you saw.
Speaker 3: We all drew the UFO that we'd seen, a brief
Speaker 3: description of it. Then once we'd finished, the headmaster went round,
Speaker 3: gathered up the pieces of papers, started looking at the
Speaker 3: pieces of paper and went white. All of those illustrations
Speaker 3: depicted the same object. His kids had seen something. It
Speaker 3: totally blew his mind and I didn't know what to think.
Speaker 3: They all depicted a silver scar shaped object, a dome
Speaker 3: that covered the middle third of the craft with a
Speaker 3: red light on top. We all drew the same object,
Speaker 3: no collaboration whatsoever, and no social media, no Internet, nothing.
Speaker 2: So where does that tell you?
Speaker 3: It very much confirms that we all saw the same thing.
Speaker 4: Something strange came out of the skies and landed in
Speaker 4: the Welsh village of broad Haven, was spotted three times
Speaker 4: by children from the local school. I've just been on
Speaker 4: the phone to their headmaster.
Speaker 5: I know that the sixteen children saw it.
Speaker 6: And did they all see the same thing?
Speaker 4: Do you think I got them to draw and to
Speaker 4: write what they saw with similarity between all of the scripts.
Speaker 5: Fors and do you believe it? I believe they saw
Speaker 5: something which is not common in the environment.
Speaker 3: Media all around the world, TV crews arriving from every where.
Speaker 4: The children say the object had a large dome, It
Speaker 4: was cigar shaped and was silver in color.
Speaker 3: It sort of dawned on us at that time that
Speaker 3: this was something a little bit more serious. Senior offices
Speaker 3: from raf Raud and the US Naval Facility wanted to
Speaker 3: talk to us and find out what we'd seen. They
Speaker 3: looked at the illustrations we'd done, chatted with us as
Speaker 3: a group. They basically said, we have no idea what
Speaker 3: you've seen. What we can categorically state it has nothing
Speaker 3: to do with us, but we honestly believe you've seen something.
Speaker 3: The phones were being left off the hook at the school.
Speaker 3: The headmaster was completely losing his will to live. We
Speaker 3: weren't trying to sense thatationalia. We were just saying what
Speaker 3: had happened. If you can find the old clip. I
Speaker 3: think the old clips are still on YouTube or.
Speaker 7: My friend Palatier was trying to find a way over
Speaker 7: the stream and I was looking at the bushes up
Speaker 7: the top of the trees.
Speaker 3: I remember that bloody top and that acre that was
Speaker 3: in the school playground.
Speaker 7: The spaceship. It looks as a cigar shaped with a
Speaker 7: dome on it.
Speaker 6: It had a yellowy orange to red.
Speaker 7: Light on the top.
Speaker 8: Clip in board Haven in Wales, some extremely interesting pictures
Speaker 8: in some of the things that told me they couldn't
Speaker 8: have known about impossible.
Speaker 7: My friend Philippio was trying to find a way over
Speaker 7: the steam and I was looking at the bushes up
Speaker 7: the top of the trees, and then suddenly the silver
Speaker 7: cigar shaped objects seemed to pop up from behind the bushes,
Speaker 7: trying to take off. Then it disappeared again.
Speaker 4: Were you frightened at the time, yes, Now we got
Speaker 4: some younger people in the studio who claimed to have
Speaker 4: had encounters of their very own.
Speaker 9: We just rung off.
Speaker 7: We were so scared.
Speaker 3: Wasn't just the broad Haven Coast. Other incidents in the
Speaker 3: area started happening.
Speaker 10: They call it the broad Haven Triangle, an area here
Speaker 10: in Pembrokeshire where sensible, down to earth people I constantly saying,
Speaker 10: strange objects in the sky, sterious lights. It's an area
Speaker 10: where an entire classroom of school children saw from their
Speaker 10: playground a UFO.
Speaker 2: Are you all honestly going to say that you think
Speaker 2: that the things you saw were short of saying most
Speaker 2: of this world?
Speaker 3: Do you think those were related? Yeah? Basically the same objects.
Speaker 3: Silver sco shaped objects sighted off the Gower Swansea coast,
Speaker 3: another one in Larn.
Speaker 11: Yet another flying software to add to the lengthening list
Speaker 11: of tame sightings over Pembrokeshire Compryside.
Speaker 3: From the south of Wales right round to the southwest
Speaker 3: the Wels Triangle.
Speaker 11: Is it all really a case of mass hysteria or
Speaker 11: is there some reality in the unreal The people who
Speaker 11: live around Broadhaven will tell you that what they've experienced
Speaker 11: has reeled up.
Speaker 3: There was another case, the Ripperston Farming case. Things were
Speaker 3: happening there that were almost like politiceist activity.
Speaker 1: This story doesn't stay contained, it only starts spreading.
Speaker 2: I could see this here the glight.
Speaker 12: This find so fair.
Speaker 3: I knew the people involved. I had no reason to
Speaker 3: doubt what they were saying.
Speaker 1: After the Broadhaven school incident, reports were coming in from
Speaker 1: all across the region, different objects in the sky, the
Speaker 1: same shapes and colors. There were other tales in that
Speaker 1: region that play out like a nightmare.
Speaker 5: When you're an ordinary farming family and you're convinced you've
Speaker 5: seen spaceships and creatures from another planet, how do you
Speaker 5: persuade friends, neighbors, and the world in general that you've
Speaker 5: not taken leave of your senses. That's the constant problem
Speaker 5: with Face Billy and Pauline and Coombs.
Speaker 7: When it happened to me the first term, I thought,
Speaker 7: you know, I'm imagining things.
Speaker 3: Over the years, I've sort of tried not to dwell
Speaker 3: on certain parts of the story.
Speaker 2: What kind of details.
Speaker 3: Occupants this silver suited figure was wandering around Pembrokeshire.
Speaker 1: Local residents claim to have seen an enormous, metallic like man,
Speaker 1: jumping fences, standing in the window, other strange lights in
Speaker 1: the sky, and encounters that feel way more personal a.
Speaker 6: Silver suited man.
Speaker 7: It was the most terrifying experience of it.
Speaker 2: Always something was happening, but what.
Speaker 7: Their arms were exceptionally long, their legs were exceptionally long,
Speaker 7: and they definitely didn't have face, and they were faceless people,
Speaker 7: no eyes, no mouth. This thing throughout the hage, it
Speaker 7: jumped over this gate.
Speaker 6: There's something droll about it. No mind that jumped.
Speaker 12: Back gate.
Speaker 1: Ripperston form. This isn't a side quest, this is escalation.
Speaker 1: The phenomenon leaves the schoolyard and enters private homes.
Speaker 10: Police were called out the night of the incident at
Speaker 10: the Combses Farm.
Speaker 11: It's probably of all the incidents in my twenty sixts service,
Speaker 11: that's the most friends of family I had helped us.
Speaker 6: Do you see arguments?
Speaker 13: No, A lot has to be who your witnesses, the
Speaker 13: age of the witness, perhaps, the social status of the witness, certainly,
Speaker 13: the educational background, the integrity.
Speaker 2: And then the contamination arrives.
Speaker 3: The mold asked the local MP what's happening down in Pembrokeshire.
Speaker 3: By the time the local MP had been asked that
Speaker 3: a hoax had been perpetrated, the guy walking around Pembrokeshire
Speaker 3: dressed in a firefighter's suit, this silver suited figure that
Speaker 3: was wandering around Pembrokeshire. Everybody knew the incidents that he
Speaker 3: was responded sable for. You know, did they sort of
Speaker 3: conflate these two things? Yes. When the MP was asked
Speaker 3: what's going on in Pembirakeship regarding the UFO's fighting sources.
Speaker 3: He got told about this person walking around Pembikship in
Speaker 3: a silver suit pretending to be an alien, and everything
Speaker 3: was closed down after that. That was the level of
Speaker 3: the inquiry.
Speaker 2: Why do you think that happened?
Speaker 3: The hoax thing? Because Pembrokeshire is full of idiots. We
Speaker 3: arrived in school one morning to find the headmaster going
Speaker 3: absolutely nuts. There was what looked like a bomb in
Speaker 3: the front playground of the school. We identified it as
Speaker 3: the long range fuel tank of for Bomber. It was
Speaker 3: the fuel tankle for Bomber, this rocket shaped projectile planted
Speaker 3: in the playground as a joke. My headmaster had got
Speaker 3: in touch with the media, said about it. They came
Speaker 3: down and photographed it. Obviously, this is the UFO that
Speaker 3: you saw.
Speaker 2: Let's zoom out for a second.
Speaker 1: Do you have all these kids who claim to have
Speaker 1: seen the same UFO in their schoolyard, then subsequent sightings
Speaker 1: of a similar object all around the region for months.
Speaker 2: Then it gets weirder and darker.
Speaker 1: People claim to see this large metallic man stalking them.
Speaker 1: Then there's reports of an actual man dressed up in
Speaker 1: a silver suit.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there were hoaxes at the time. I know of
Speaker 3: one personally. He gave his story for the price of
Speaker 3: a half answer tobacco, with no truth in it whatsoever.
Speaker 3: We met one day and he actually thought I was
Speaker 3: lying and confirmed it to me that he was lying,
Speaker 3: and said, what about you, now, mate, who is this?
Speaker 12: Oh?
Speaker 3: Now that I don't want to confirm. If you get
Speaker 3: in contact with any of the kids that saw this object,
Speaker 3: they all except for two, maintain that they saw that object.
Speaker 3: Now the two that's plained they didn't and that they
Speaker 3: may did our Oh god, how can I've got this?
Speaker 3: When something's happening like that, you always get a couple
Speaker 3: of kids who will jump on a bandwagon. The majority
Speaker 3: of us kids will tell you flat out straight, but
Speaker 3: we saw what we saw. However, throughout all this time,
Speaker 3: I've known that these particularly ones were possibly not being
Speaker 3: completely honest.
Speaker 1: This is how real events get buried, not by disproving them,
Speaker 1: by surrounding them with stupidity until nobody wants to touch them.
Speaker 1: Poses don't erase the signal, They just drown it.
Speaker 3: Over the years, I've sort of protected those two because
Speaker 3: I don't want two people who just joined in at
Speaker 3: the time because something that was happening who now say, oh, no,
Speaker 3: we didn't see anything at all. I don't want those
Speaker 3: two having a negative impact on what the rest of
Speaker 3: us really did see. It's almost slipped into folklore.
Speaker 12: Just press the green says there, she knows they're here,
Speaker 12: by the way, because I said to earlier.
Speaker 14: On Oh yeah, I don't swear as you've been recorded.
Speaker 12: Um, oh dear, it's a shame, ma'am.
Speaker 3: Have you got have you got too minutes? Do you
Speaker 3: remember the day I came home from school after seeing
Speaker 3: the UFO?
Speaker 12: Oh yeah, definitely.
Speaker 1: When he came home, what did he say?
Speaker 12: He said he had seen a UFO. I thought, oh,
Speaker 12: you're joking you no boy. Anyway, I could tell by
Speaker 12: his face that he was telling me the truth, because
Speaker 12: I could always tell if he was telling me a
Speaker 12: football or not. But I knew this was genuine. I
Speaker 12: knew it's something at that end. Yes, I believed them.
Speaker 2: All these years later. What do you think happened that day?
Speaker 2: What do you think these kids experienced.
Speaker 12: After all these years? I strongly believe that they saw
Speaker 12: something in the UFO which can't be explained, because I mean,
Speaker 12: if they had lied, somebody would have spilled the beans.
Speaker 12: By now, and this has never ever happened. They still
Speaker 12: they still tell you exactly what happened, the same thing now,
Speaker 12: all these years later.
Speaker 3: Was he a good kid?
Speaker 12: Uh?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right, Yeah, I think right.
Speaker 12: Yes, you were on time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you think it was after all these years?
Speaker 12: Well? I keep an open mind, but I believe that
Speaker 12: there is something of the I don't know. It's my
Speaker 12: feeling that there is something. I haven't seen anything myself,
Speaker 12: but yeah, I do believe there's something there.
Speaker 3: Okay, mam, talk to you. So in anyway, ma'am, all.
Speaker 12: Right, golam giving paid.
Speaker 3: Yeah, by the words. In the early days, I had
Speaker 3: probably thought that by now we'd have had confirmation with
Speaker 3: being visited. The one thing that we have had in
Speaker 3: confirmation of in recent years is that these damn things exist,
Speaker 3: whether we know what they are, or where they're coming
Speaker 3: from or whatever. I confirming that these things exist major
Speaker 3: piece of vindication for me. Whilst I can't go out
Speaker 3: and say, okay, the alien's visiting, I can go out
Speaker 3: and tell you the people, look, US government has confirmed
Speaker 3: these dumb things exist. Now, please will you stop saying
Speaker 3: they don't exist? I mean ghosts, the believing ghosts, you don't.
Speaker 3: You can't prove that ghosts exist. We improved that UFOs exist.
Speaker 1: All these years later, you've had almost fifty years to
Speaker 1: think about this. What do you think it was that
Speaker 1: you saw that day?
Speaker 3: I think I've probably entertained all hypotheses extraterrestrial, that it's
Speaker 3: one of ours, extra dimensional, even the possibility that these
Speaker 3: things are not going from anywhere else, that they're a
Speaker 3: lot more local than we think possibly coming from here.
Speaker 3: And by here, I do not mean human intelligences here,
Speaker 3: I mean another intelligence here. I mean I supposed to
Speaker 3: cop out is to say aliens. A lot of it
Speaker 3: makes no sense an intergalactic visitor would be coming here
Speaker 3: to look at primary school for kids, and more Inklin
Speaker 3: that a lot of it could possibly be more in
Speaker 3: our neighborhood dimensionally, or another inhabitant of this planet that
Speaker 3: we just pretty much I'm sure about. If there was
Speaker 3: a whole logic, in the whole phenomena, it'd be a
Speaker 3: lot easier to pin down where you think this is
Speaker 3: coming from. I've been led down certain paths where I'm thinking, yeah,
Speaker 3: it's definitely aliens, it's it, yeah, yeah, And then all
Speaker 3: of a sudden there's Oh no, it's not. It's not aliens.
Speaker 3: Some of these objects seem to be showing the ability
Speaker 3: to dimensionally changed in some ways, disappearing in a puffet logic.
Speaker 3: They don't seem to operate on the same physical plane
Speaker 3: as conventionally air craft. Unfortunately, my knowledge of quantum mechanics
Speaker 3: isn't good to have to actually sort of get down
Speaker 3: on this. But I mean, don't think I haven't tried.
Speaker 3: Perhaps there is a desire in me that I would
Speaker 3: like it to be aliens or an interdimensional species or
Speaker 3: something like that. Why because it confirms that there's a
Speaker 3: greater universe out there. However, if suddenly declassified documents were
Speaker 3: made available from the day or something that says, okay,
Speaker 3: sorry it was one of that ways, I would be
Speaker 3: happy with that.
Speaker 1: But it's been fifty years, yeah, and.
Speaker 3: Nothing, absolutely nothing.
Speaker 1: We're moving into a world where fewer things will stop
Speaker 1: and ask us what do you want. Most systems are
Speaker 1: just going to guess, optimize and decide what makes sense
Speaker 1: based on data and probability. And the annoying thing is,
Speaker 1: most of the time they'll be right enough that it
Speaker 1: feels stupid to argue that's the shift that's easy for
Speaker 1: all of us to miss.
Speaker 2: The future doesn't take.
Speaker 1: Your choices away, It just makes it easier to stop
Speaker 1: making them.
Speaker 2: You don't lose control in one big moment.
Speaker 1: You lose it in small handoffs, one click, one default,
Speaker 1: one sure. That's fine, until suddenly you look up and
Speaker 1: realize a lot of your life is running on autopilot.
Speaker 1: The skill that matters now isn't resisting technology or just
Speaker 1: opting out of the world. It's noticing when you're drifting,
Speaker 1: pausing long enough to ask a simple question, did I
Speaker 1: actually choose this? Or am I just going along with
Speaker 1: it because it's easier. That question shows up everywhere what
Speaker 1: you tolerate but you let slide because you're tired or busy.
Speaker 1: We don't need to fight the future, We just need
Speaker 1: to stay awake inside it, because once you stop choosing,
Speaker 1: something else always chooses for you. As strange as broad
Speaker 1: Haven is, it still sits in the realm of witness experience, sight, sound, memory,
Speaker 1: and human perception. Humans sometimes aren't the most reliable witnesses.
Speaker 1: It doesn't mean it didn't happen, but maybe the details
Speaker 1: aren't always perfect. And when it comes to high strange stories,
Speaker 1: there are some that leave physical traces, physical evidence, and
Speaker 1: some of them don't make any sense at all. We're
Speaker 1: talking about cases where animals are found dead in wide
Speaker 1: open country with entire sections of their bodies removed with
Speaker 1: a level of precision that defies any easy explanation. No blood,
Speaker 1: no tire tracks, no signs of other animals, no signs
Speaker 1: of a struggle period. One of the most unsettling stories
Speaker 1: I found happened not long ago in eastern Oregon.
Speaker 9: It was a very hot verse August. The livestock crew
Speaker 9: was managing livestock out on the range, had cowboys out.
Speaker 9: Later on that morning. I received a call from my
Speaker 9: cowboss on the radio. We had these handheld radios that
Speaker 9: could reach across the ranch so we could stay in communication.
Speaker 6: He calls me on the radio and he.
Speaker 9: Says, one of our range bulls is dead. It looks
Speaker 9: like there's some odd, weird things about this animal. It
Speaker 9: was kind of describing for me what he was seeing,
Speaker 9: and so I started asking questions. It was probably about
Speaker 9: forty minutes later he calls me on the video again
Speaker 9: and he says, you will not believe this. We found
Speaker 9: another range bowl that is dead and it is nearly
Speaker 9: in the exact same condition as the one that he
Speaker 9: had found earlier. And I said, Okay, I'm going to
Speaker 9: jump in my pickup and I'm gonna come up there
Speaker 9: and take a look at it.
Speaker 6: Now, I got two range bowls.
Speaker 9: Both have the same mutilations on their body, and that is.
Speaker 6: Just absolutely unheard of.
Speaker 9: I walked up to the very first bull, and as
Speaker 9: I'm walking up to him, I can just see his
Speaker 9: back and he's laying on the ground. If you didn't know,
Speaker 9: you'd say he was just laying there asleep. Walk around
Speaker 9: on the other side so that I could see his belly.
Speaker 15: And his legs, and that's when I saw that he
Speaker 15: had had his testicles completely removed.
Speaker 6: The penis was completely removed.
Speaker 9: After a little bit further investigation, we saw that his
Speaker 9: tongue had been removed as well. You're you're looking at
Speaker 9: this and you're trying to process it in your brain
Speaker 9: because nothing makes sense about it. There's no struggle marks
Speaker 9: on the ground, there's.
Speaker 6: No indications that they'd put up a fight. There was
Speaker 6: no bite marks, there was no bullet wounds. It was
Speaker 6: so odd.
Speaker 9: I went back to the ranch, called the sheriff's office
Speaker 9: and we got in touch with the State Police.
Speaker 6: Notified the Force Service what we had found.
Speaker 9: Whoever's doing this understands anatomy, I mean surgical precision.
Speaker 6: I've spent my whole entire life around livestock.
Speaker 9: At no point in my life have I ever experienced
Speaker 9: anything like that. It makes the hair on the back
Speaker 9: of your neck stand up. You start thinking, Okay, how
Speaker 9: could this happen? Who would want to do this? What's
Speaker 9: the reason behind it? What's the purpose? I'm not naive
Speaker 9: to think there is an other life in the universe.
Speaker 6: Why is it being done?
