Pro wrestler Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka testified at his mental competency hearing on Friday and often seemed confused as he was questioned by a judge who will decide whether he can stand trial on charges he killed his girlfriend Nancy Argentino in 1983. Snuka, who turned 73 on Wednesday, said he was in his 80s. He didn’t know it was 2016. He couldn’t remember the name of his lawyer or identify the current U.S. president or any presidential candidates. And he seemed befuddled about the reason he was in court. The wrester had been at a World Wrestling Federation taping at the Allentown Fairgrounds in May 1983, and told police shortly after his girlfriends  death that he had returned to their hotel room to find her unresponsive in bed. She was pronounced dead at a hospital several hours later. An autopsy determined she died of traumatic brain injuries and had more than three dozen cuts and bruises, and it concluded her injuries were consistent with being hit with a stationary object. But the district attorney declined to press charges, and Snuka continued his high-profile pro wrestling career.

Here he was put on display for the amusement of the white public and here he stayed for a number of months, where afterwards he was sent to the Howard Colored Orphan Asylum where he remained until 1910. Following this, he relocated to Lynchburg, Virginia, where he lived with the McCray family and desperately tried to adapt to life after being treated like an animal for a prolonged period of time. The family tutored him in English and even enrolled him in school. He had planned to return to the Congo but these hopes were crushed in 1914, when WWI broke out. In a tragic ending to a bleak tale of racism and captivity, on 20 March, 1916, at the age of 32, Ota built a ceremonial fire, chipped the caps off his teeth, and then shot himself through the heart. He was finally free.

One of the most photographed, and arguably one of the most believable, stories of UFO’s is that which was spotted on 30 March, 1990, in Belgium. The Control Reporting Center (CRC) confirmed that there were unidentified triangular objects flying in the sky. There were a number of reported sightings of the unusual object which was spotted with lights that were allegedly as bright as stars and changed colour. After a second radar confirmation, two F-16 jets were sent to intercept the UFO; they obtained radar lock on three occasions but each time they locked, the UFO would drastically change their position and then accelerate exceedingly. When the F-16′s locked for the first time, the UFO accelerated from 150mph to more that 1100mph and changed altitude from 9000ft to 5000ft and then up to 11000ft in less than two seconds. These changes in altitude at the speeds that were reported would be life threatening to any human pilot. Over 13,000 people reported witnessing this spectacle. After an hour, the UFO disappeared from the radars.
