I thought I would do write something a little different, especially with Halloween coming up. You’ve heard of those strange sightings of humans flying around without benefit of an airplane, with some of the most recent reports coming from the Los Angeles airport. I don’t think the culprit in those cases has been found. It is just one of those bizarre things that are reported periodically.
Looking at the videos,
and examining some of the documentation, there is a suggestion that those
sightings at LAX might by of a mannikin and a drone. I’m not convinced by that
answer, though it seems more likely than some of the others that have been
offered. You can watch a video about this here:
In Chicago, there have
been a number of sightings of something that seems to be large and seems to be
bat shaped but is too large to be a bat. You can learn more about that here:
The Chicago creature. Although there is no foreground detail in this still from the video, that detail can be seen there which provides some perspective. |
However, David Jacobs has suggested that there is an alien presence on Earth and that hybrids that have human traits are walking among us. Some of these reports might be the result of that. One of the strangest of these sightings came from Deland, Florida, during July of this year.
The witness, known only
as Larry, reported in a series of communications that there were strange,
unidentified figures on the roof of the local courthouse. Larry noted that there was nothing for the beings to stand on to look over
the wall, the figures were eight or nine feet tall. Larry said that he reported
this to the local police because the courthouse had been locked and there was
no way for the beings to get onto the roof, though clearly, based on the
pictures he took, they were there.
Larry also reported the
sighting to his boss. Together, they spotted a figure, and later a second one,
on the roof. His boss also called the police. The police
investigated, found the doors had been properly locked but there was no one on
the roof. It was somewhat mysterious because no one had seen them leave.
In the fourth report
from Larry, he said that he had seen a figure floating along the roof. He
grabbed his camera and took more photographs of that figure and then of
another. He said that one figure approached the edge of the roof and seemed to
be wearing a military style hat. Another had a long neck and wore something
about his neck.
The "strange" being on the roof of the courthouse. |
William Puckett has
analyzed the pictures and reported, “I don’t have any reason to believe this is
a hoaxed report.” There were other witnesses, there are photographs, and the
witnesses did call the police. If it is a hoax, then the witnesses are not the
perpetrators of it. This is a very strange circumstance. You can read about
this sighting here:

To add to the evidence,
weak though it is, you can read a similar story about a tall alien creature in
the Philadelphia area here:

Larry noted, again,
that the railing around the roof is five feet high and there is nothing to
stand on near it. He concludes that the beings are very tall, and reminded him
of what he had read about the “Tall Whites,” as related to UFO sightings.
Little or no real
verification has been offered for Hall’s wild tales, and are of interest here,
only because the similarity to the beings seen on the courthouse roof as
described by Larry.
While they were not exactly flying humanoids, this does fit into the pattern of strange beings including the Mothman on which John Keel reported in the 1960s. I confess I don’t know what to make of all these reports but will note that there is photographic evidence for some of them. In the world of the paranormal, sometimes that’s about all we can ask for.
Just my two cents here...
ReplyDeleteI looked at several photos of the DeLand Courthouse and measured the height of the railing compared to the height of the windows. The railing is about half the height of the uppermost (and smallest) windows on the building. For the railing to be five feet tall, the windows would have to be around ten feet tall. That would make the largest of the windows around 13+ feet tall. As the lowest windows are the same height as the entry/exit doors, these would also have to be around thirteen feet tall. That would place the exterior door locks at over six feet from the ground, which seems very unlikely.
This very quick and dirty analysis leads me to conclude the railing is not five feet on the roof level. It's most likely a normal railing of a height that easily allows normal people to look over the top. A normal size railing would seem to immediately rule out giant humanoids and rule in, you know, people.
As I said, analysis was quick and dirty. I welcome criticisms.

The Courthouse report seems most likely a balloon. Why reach for Tall Whites?
ReplyDeleteBased on Northfoggy's comment, I used Google Earth Pro to look at the Courthouse to see if any sense could be made of this. The Courthouse is at 125 W. New York Ave. in Deland. If you select the 3D Buildings from the Layers box, you will get the heights. For one thing you will notice the picture of the odd person on the roof at the web site is flipped right to left opposite what Google shows. But you can move the cursor and show the height around the roof and the railing. Where the person is seen to be standing, the height of the floor is 87 ft. The railing where the person is is 89 feet. So where did the high wall measurement come from? Above the top floor 3 windows is the roof at 85 feet. The railing is still 89 feet. So, assuming the Google 3D building measurements are correct, there is no need to invoke creepy tall people.
ReplyDeleteMoonman-
ReplyDeleteYou realize, of course, that the witness actually works in the building and has been on the roof himself. Since he works there, has been on the roof, I would suspect that his measures and observations are relevant. Just thought I would mention it.
