The whole point about John Hutchison was that he could take a bar, a steel, a bar of aluminium, hit it, hit it with his vibrational energy weapon, and literally you could then just take the aluminium girder and just break it with your hands, just fell to dust.
M
57:15Miles JohnstonGUEST
So that kind of technology... was used at the Bentwaters UFO incidents in December 1980.
M
57:23Miles JohnstonGUEST
And that's why there were 24 nukes put in the nuclear bunkers of the Bentwaters Woodbridge nuclear storage facility.
M
57:36Miles JohnstonGUEST
Some kind of devices flew over that and neutralized the weapon.
M

by disassembling or springing apart the nuclear material so it wasn't radioactive anymore.

So what is that doing in a hangar in Bentwaters? Because it stained, it was also stained with water because it had been sitting in the water and there were stains on it showing it had been in the sea after a breakup.

And in some respects, there are some of us that know a heck of a lot I was watching a history lesson, I replayed it, I saved some of the programs, and it was the incident in England, I forget the name of that base.
R
31:28Richard BeckwithHOST
Bentwaters.
S
31:28Stanislav O'JackGUEST
That's it.
S
31:30Stanislav O'JackGUEST
And I was watching that and I kept laughing.
S
31:33Stanislav O'JackGUEST
I thought, how many people really believe those who experienced it? compared to those who denounce it.
S
31:48Stanislav O'JackGUEST
And I don't know the statistics, but my experience of people I've met in my lifetime, I'd say 75-8% believe it happened, and 20% are willing to believe our government because they think they're basically framed it, it might be true.
R
32:05Richard BeckwithHOST
I think the explanation for the Bentwaters incident was that the security personnel were seeing a light from the local lighthouse, as opposed to objects that were hovering over the base and shining beams on the weapons storage areas.
S
32:23Stanislav O'JackGUEST
Well, last night, when I was watching it, the two major officers, I can't think of the names, the ones who actually went out and saw it.

The event occurred in the same place as the Rendlesham incident, over RAF Bentwaters and RAF Woodbridge, which are two joint RAF and US Air Force bases, which are located in Suffolk, England.
S
0:44speaker_1GUEST
And the incident occurred during the late hours of August 13th, 1956, and extended into the early morning hours of August 14th.
S
0:56speaker_1GUEST
Well, the first sighting was at 9.30pm when Airman 2nd Class John Vaquer, who was a radar operator at one of the bases in the east of England, repeatedly tracked single and multiple objects on his ground controller porch radar, which displayed high speed as well as rapid changes of direction.
S
5:56speaker_1GUEST
Well, I was just going to say that, going back to, again, Jim Tennyson's sign in 1980, when he saw that the triangular shaped UFO 3 meters by 3 meters lands in the forest when that took off he explained it was like a blink of an eye and suddenly this object was gone so there is sort of a recurring pattern when it comes to UFO reports with this you know blink of an eye speed only 55 minutes
J

after
S
6:25speaker_1GUEST
that object go to 12,000 miles per hour was reported more activity occurred as radar and RAF Bentwaters picked up an identified target and this is on the same east to west course as the previous one at an apparent speed of 2,000 to 4,000 miles per hour and personally I located in the Bentwaters tower actually reported at the same time they saw a bright light which seemed to pass over the field from east to west so this field you know basically in front of the tower and suddenly this object passes from east to west an altitude of four thousand feet and this report actually coincides with another report from a pilot in the vicinity who at the same time reported a bright light which streaked beneath his twin-engine C-47 military transport plane.
