David wasn't just a navy pilot
He was a top gun captain
Best of the best inside the best of the best aircraft
“My Gosh” F#%^*$G officers man I swear
I’ve always had the opinion that the US never wanted to be a laughing stock on the world stage back in the day
"you're thinking of religion" CORRECT
A ufo spaceship would not have lights on it. Lights serve no purpose other than to be seen.
I think John Oliver is deflecting. How do we know HE'S not an 👽? I mean, come on, look at that unearthly beak!
omg I lost my snake a week ago too
Seen 2 ufo avoid head on collision at last second …..quite amazing 😊
May I hope that the animal was in fact a non-venomous California king snake?
The 'History' Channel is no longer worthy of that name. They should just rename themselves the 'Ancient Aliens' or 'Conspiracy Theory' channel.
After the police put out a warning about the DC shooter (2002) an overwhelming amount of reports came in from the public about having seen a 'white van' in the area… only for the actual vehicle used by the shooter being a blue sedan.
By 21st century standards eyewitness testimony is the least reliable of all 'evidence.' Any competent lawyer will tell you that by now such testimony is mainly used only as corroborating rather than primary evidence in the court of law.
As NdGT put it: how come with all the phone cameras out there we are not seeing an overwhelming amount of more evidence for UFOs? How come astronomers who are the ones constantly searching the skies for any light are the least likely to report sighting a UFO?
Also why would you assume what you are seeing 'must' be of extraterrestrial and intelligent in origin? If you 'know' it 'must' be so then the rest of us have a lot more question for you about how you know that?
Nobody benefits more from the public believing UFO sightings are extraterrestrial than the government.
It prevents the public asking questions as to why the Pentagon keeps failing its budget audits several years in a row.
It’s the nibiru system. Three comets and a planet behind the other three comets
Why can Brits only can pronounce an H when they say herbal???
I was waiting for John to note the absurdity of the phrase "near miss"…..
1. How many reports are in good faith?
2. Of those, how many are due to actual sightings of something the person couldn't ID (vs insanity)?
3. Of those, how many are actual aerial objects unknown to the public (vs eg weather tricks)?
4. Unknown to anyone on earth?
5. The result of alien intelligence?
Those are the levels imo.
Dearest John,
Thank you and bless you for the UFO show. In my junior year 1969-1970 at Kents Hill School, I along with two other students and our House Mother watched a UFO flying over the athletic fields from our dorm. We even went to an upper floor to view it. It zipped and paused for at least 15-20 minutes, then departed.
Please consider watching unsolved mysteries, Allagash Alien Abduction, which another nurse mentioned to me only a few weeks ago. Built like an offensive lineman, said he would never go to the Allagash!! Now I am more concerned about UFOs.
Much admiration from your friend in Maine 🙂
The Danish flag "Danebrog" fell down from the sky in 1219 AC. Could be the first flag delivered by aliens?
I’ve watched Jon for many years but what is the bizarre thrashing body language that I’m noticing now? Is it Tourette’s? Parkinson’s? Concerned for him.
Humans love to make up stories. I bet 99% of all UFO "sightings" are just people making it up or not understanding what they are seeing. It's the 1% I'm worried about that might be right.
It sure is crazy how sightings of UFOs dropped around the time phones with cameras became widely available.
I am actually surprise that he was semi serious or serious enough not to make tinfoil hat comments or go after certains specific individuals very good show. Also am surprise he used the word ufo when the government says NOOOO is uap people.
I love John Oliver! ❤ i hope ypu found your snake mate. I wonder if many of the sightings are simular to how people used to see ghostships..
Children during school recess in Africa claimed alien like creatures confronted and warned the children to stop building technology it will destroy life.
Why did the Aliens pick Africa and decide to speak to children? Safer location and easier to communicate with children. I don't know, just a theory.
A written & oral family history of UFO sightings in my family go back to early 19th century on the western frontier.
My grandfather was obsessed with UFOs during & after WWII. He sighted an object that rose out of the sea, hovered and then flew away at extreme speeds
Moreover per his stories told to my brothers & I in mid 60’s, Foo foo fighters of various forms were present at major WWII Pacific Naval air battle, Coral Sea & forward. As senior enlisted & senior aviation boatswain’s mate (aircraft mechanic) on a multitude of WWII carriers, he was the man trusted with reports that could get you classified as section 8. He collected them & by word of mouths, pilots would find him to debrief him on what they saw. Given my grandfather’s job as chief mechanic, the pilots had a good cover for seeking him out: individual plane readiness for combat; overall squadron plane availability & repair status.
They need a bunch of autistics who like identifying things but not specifically into aliens with idetic memories studying this.
Long story short: I've seen "ufos" here in Finland between the years 2004-2020 several times.
After all these years, I managed to find a video that shows the things I've seen with my own eyes – and especially the way these things move. I'm aware how much garbage there is in youtube, but this video (-94 Nellis range) is for real:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKpZyFxXHps
@4:50 you can see the way how these things move.
Also, I do understand that people who have not seen these type of things, may not realize how much this particular video means to me. I never hoped seeing ufos or anything like that.
Why is the 1973 news reporter also John Oliver tho
Like James Corden its a mystery to me why this guy John Oliver has a prime time show. He is infinity unfunny and instantly unlikeable
Around 3:30, there is something that is traveling at very high speed. My question is, why didn't the pilot sped up to approach it if, as they explain at around 23:00 that it wasn't traveling at a high speed, and was nobody curious whom that technology belonged to if it was not a property of the United States?
think about it…if the government didn't already know, they would be far more interested in trying to find out. Government loves spenidng money. The public wants to know. Yet you can't get any money approved to look for them?…they already know
i think the virgin mary painting is supposed to be a guy looking at a boat..perspectiver, ..
I love classic Americans, its too crazy
6:18 this could explain the Olsen twin thing
There is a key observation not mentioned. Back in the day there were some closeup eyewitness accounts. Always lacked was photographic evidence. Today everyone carries a camera on their person and any encounter more than just lights in the sky would he recorded, sent out on the net and we would all know about it. We've been in this world for 15 years and nothing had been reported. This pretty much rules out UFOs as aliens.
I actually saw a UFO in northern Ontario Canada (Hearst area).
I was with my older brother and adult sister. Camping, waiting for fire to die down and star gazing.
Mid 1970s. Big triangle, 3 lights, that stayed way above us for long enough for our necks to stiffen. We weren't afraid. As we rubbed our necks a bit and she told us, with 'that' look, not to tell anyone about it. Her abusive husband, who had drank himself to sleep. That pig was the reason and her demand wasn't questioned. Strangely I have trouble believing in aliens. Foolish i know. Had i seen one in the bush, it was very remote, I'd believe it. 40 plus years. Feels nice to say it. She's now safe, threat died.
John Oliver talking about UFOs is something that could happen in a movie about alien invasion
Funny story, I was driving through Arizona during this event. I was Abducted by these aliens but was ask to exit the spacecraft after the interview.
Google. Admiral Byrd, Paul Helier UFO
Aerospace companies influence our government as they majorly contribute large donations to their elections and re-elections! This is not what they have put in office for, but they support and represent us! Too much black money is running our secret government! What real technologies have we developed! Hidden from its citizens.
I have seen a UAP. Similar to the 2017 report. But that's all I can say. Was it aliens… I don't know.
The riddle is pretty simple, it's our own aircraft and tech. Why would a grunt get to know what secret weapons we are testing? When you work for the government, you only know enough to do your job.
The fake background laughter is amazing
