My author friend that helped me with my first book, Rob McGregor, he wrote about that and he said it was thought that they were saluting to me.
Bruce GernonGUEST
7:41
So there's been, I've also had a close encounter of the third kind and that was only one month after I flew through the triangle and had that experience and so then I could tell that it seemed that was tied in with the Bermuda Triangle somehow these fine saucers so I've been studying it ever since I've been researching it longer than anybody over 55 years now
Wendy GarrettHOST
8:13
And that's extraordinary because for one thing, the experience you describe, one of the videos you talk about it being a wormhole and that you've been doing some research now with AI.
Wendy GarrettHOST
8:23
And this is where I think, this is where our future has just grown exponentially because with AI, we have the ability to ask questions and get information back that has never been an option before.

No, one month after when I mentioned.
Wendy GarrettHOST
30:10
Yeah.
Bruce GernonGUEST
30:11
That was the close encounter of the third kind.
Bruce GernonGUEST
30:14
In other words, I almost touched it.
Martin WillisHOST
0:35
He is serving as a UK police inspector.
Martin WillisHOST
0:39
His name is Roy Teague, and he's the author of Close Encounters of the Police Kind.
Martin WillisHOST
0:44
He's actually an active police officer at this time and is willing to share these stories, which I think is really great.
Martin WillisHOST
0:51
He spent six years in the British Army before beginning a policing career spanning more than 26 years, including firearms operations and technical command.

Roy TeagueGUEST

Who else make great witnesses?" And surely by virtue of the training, people in my own profession, police officers, make brilliant witnesses.
Roy TeagueGUEST
7:47
So for that reason, I did a, a national campaign via the press and various magazines, a few podcasts, and I appealed for police witnesses to come forward.
Roy TeagueGUEST
7:57
And over a five-year period, I got over 250 police witnesses, interviewed them, took down their accounts, and I took the best 75 of those accounts and put them into the book, Close Encounters of the Police Kind, obviously which is a play on the very famous film, Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
Roy TeagueGUEST
8:13
I wanted people to understand what the t- by the title of the book, even before they saw a picture of it, what the book would be about.
Craig BryantHOST
1:10
You're a serving police officer, obviously.
Craig BryantHOST
1:13
You've written a book, Close Encounters of the Police Kind.
Craig BryantHOST
1:17
Incredible True Stories of UFO Sightings by British Police Officers.
Craig BryantHOST
1:22
Now, from what I can gather, you sort of got around about 250-odd different accounts and you sort of whittled them down to, is it about 75 that's gone in the book?

Roy TeagueGUEST
47:24
So if it comes and they have no choice, we're sort of semi ready and it's not a big sort of big punch in the face.
Craig BryantHOST
47:35
Yeah, I mean, there are conspiracy theories, aren't there? Things like that Hollywood is very much in with this.
Craig BryantHOST
47:44
So things like, you know, Close Encounters or even Star Wars, Star Trek, Alien, God forbid, and all those sort of films are almost, they've almost been produced primers for what, is, you know, invariably coming.
Craig BryantHOST
48:05
And then it won't be so much of a shock to us when we do finally discover that we're not alone.
Anita AllenGUEST
27:31
You'll have to look it up.
Anita AllenGUEST
27:34
But I'll read you a quick one of what's called Close Encounter of the Third Type, Subtype B, if you're familiar with all that kind of
speaker_1NARRATOR
27:43
stuff.
Anita AllenGUEST
27:45
And I won't give you the whole trappings of it, just the meaty bit.
Steve StocktonHOST
34:05
and the cultural isolation of the people.
Steve StocktonHOST
34:07
The children of Voronezh in 1989 had almost zero access to Western science fiction, movies like Close Encounters or even UFO books and magazines.
Steve StocktonHOST
34:17
Yet they described a high strangeness event that matched the most complex cases in the Western archives.
Steve StocktonHOST
34:25
So, the Voronezh incident remains a landmark because it proved that high strangeness is not a Western phenomenon.
Murray ToewsGUEST
8:48
Yes.
Murray ToewsGUEST
8:48
Well, the first Close Encounter is the more recent one that I've personally been looking into.
Murray ToewsGUEST
8:58
So just to reiterate, I'm a MUFON investigator for Manitoba.
Murray ToewsGUEST
9:03
Apparently I'm the only one for MUFON.

Murray ToewsGUEST
34:10
I like to speculate.
Murray ToewsGUEST
34:12
I'm still looking at the valet stuff.
Murray ToewsGUEST
34:15
It goes beyond the close encounter of the third kind.
Murray ToewsGUEST
34:19
And we'll see where that goes.
Ross CoulthartHOST
1:09
He's joining us today because he's been investigating UFO UAP sightings accounts from hundreds of UK police officers, and he's put 75 of the most intriguing stories in his new book.
Ross CoulthartHOST
1:25
which has just been published, Close Encounters of the Police Kind.
Ross CoulthartHOST
1:30
This is a rip-snortingly good read.
Ross CoulthartHOST
1:34
It's an extraordinarily well-researched and investigated book, and it underlines Roy's skills as an on-the-job copper investigator.

Roy TeagueGUEST
30:34
But what they do notice, and these are his words again, is a rolling effect.
Roy TeagueGUEST
30:39
power cut coming towards him so he can see uh what house lights are on going off because most people are in bed at the time but you can see all the street lampposts going off
Ross CoulthartHOST
30:48
a bit like that scene in close encounters when all the lights go out it's whatever the craft exactly they seem to take the electricity from the lights
Roy TeagueGUEST
30:56
They do.
Steve StocktonHOST
31:50
and the cultural isolation of the people.
Steve StocktonHOST
31:53
The children of Voronezh in 1989 had almost zero access to Western science fiction, movies like Close Encounters or even UFO books and magazines.
Steve StocktonHOST
32:03
Yet they described a high strangeness event that matched the most complex cases in the Western archives.
Steve StocktonHOST
32:11
So, the Voronezh incident remains a landmark because it proved that high strangeness is not a Western phenomenon.
