Mexico City, 1992: UFOs stalk helicopters during a holiday.

Canada, 1991: the Guardian UFO! I’ll have to cover the Unsolved Mysteries case about this one in more detail later.

Gulf Breeze Florida, 1994 -1995: UFOs are routine

Kevin Randall, retired USAF intelligence officer. “Anytime a technologically superior civilization comes into contact with a technologically inferior civilization the technologically inferior civilization ceases to exist. Not necessarily through conquest, not necessarily through invasion, but because the technology changes the underlying social structure of that civilization and it disintegrates.” A 1960 Brookings report confirms that UFO knowledge may make civilization collapse. As species advance along the carousel of progress, something must change, and not every civilization can weather their new horizons. Keeping aliens secret is like a test track to see if we're ready for the knowledge

Retired Army Officer Clifford Stone describes how refusing an order to cover up his UFO sighting resulted in him being psychoanalyzed and kicked out of the Army.

“Why have aliens visited our small blue planet, hidden on the distant fringes of an insignificant star cluster? We invited them here.”

“Extraterrestrials take aim at America’s military, a crashed saucer becomes a top secret bombshell, the nation’s capitol becomes a cosmic crosswords, and later, how Disney Imagineers have designed a way to prepare humans for their inevitable alien encounter!”

So why did aliens contact us? What made them reach out to our good ol' spaceship Earth?

Footage of nukes while reading from the Book of Ezekiel! That’s that Disney magic I love, Mr. Eisner!

He then gives a history of alien encounters, with aliens drawn here by the atomic bomb. We learn about the death of pilot Thomas Mantell chasing a UFO in 1948, and then we’re off to Roswell! Don Schmidt from the Center for UFO Studies in Chicago tells us more about Roswell.

“We have over 550 witnesses who were there. They handled debris, they saw the craft, they saw the bodies…”

Walt Disney World: They Saw The Bodies. They Handled The Bodies. Make Dreams Come True, as long as your dream is seeing corpses

Then we’re off to Majestic 12. The UFO wave over D.C. in 1952 is called the first successful invasion by a foreign power since the War of 1812.

November 1975: every base in the US is visited by UFOs, changing codes in nuclear launch facilities.

1976: UFOs over Iran, planes go dead when they near it.

September 1991: Space Shuttle Mission 48 picks up an alien ship in a broadcast (according to NASA and Phil Plait these were ice particles)

We also learn that FEMA has guides to survive alien attack, while a law passed in 1969 makes it illegal for Americans to have contact with extraterrestrials.

“When we return: meet the people who have already experienced disturbing contact with creatures from another world...see how government is monitoring mutant lifeforms that have already staked their claim on Earth...and join Robert Urich on the fringes of the future, in Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom as Disney Imagineers -”

We get psychedelic lightshows and then we go on an adventure through innerspace as Urich tells us microbes are sent by aliens as an “advance invasion force”. Yes, we’re adopting panspermia in this Walt Disney World special. The idea of alien life in meteorites was a common theme in the 90s, concluding in Bill Clinton giving a speech about one in '96 that would be edited and used as his speech about the alien signal in Contact

“But just as we explore the genetic package of alien life, visitors from space are routinely examining human specimens, abducting men, women and children in order to conduct disturbing biological experiments…”

We meet abduction investigator Budd Hopkins - who we've seen before on Sightings - and then uh. Hear alien abductee stories. This is the most controversial part. Here are real quotes from this WALT DISNEY WORLD SPECIAL:

“Often an object is inserted in the nostril or behind the eyeball or in the ear which we believe to be implants.”

“There were two holes drilled vertically along my shin into my leg…”

“They talk of the reptilian being sexually aggressive, and there are some that look like a praying mantis that are very mean and very violent…”

“It is a violation of your body, it is a violation of your space...on this Earth, when you are raped, when you are mugged...you have somewhere to go, to the police and at least give a report, whether they do something or not. But in this case, you have no one to talk to…”

“...both are ongoing abductees, with deep concerns about the chilling connection between aliens and their children...”

"...there was one point he said 'they took blood out of you, mama'."

MAKE THE DREAM COME TRUE AT WALT DISNEY WORLD

Uh...so we Jimmy Carter’s UFO report. And then the preview of New Tomorrowland! All of this for a show that will last eight years & be replaced by a Stitch show no one liked!
