UFO investigators launched a top-level probe into claims two men were abducted by aliens in the Capital.The legendary story told by Garry Wood and Colin Wright, who said they were examined by extraterrestrials after their van was ambushed by a flying saucer, is being turned into a film starring Billy Boyd.But rather than being dismissed at the time as Hollywood fantasy, the 1992 incident was taken seriously enough to be investigated by the Ministry of Defence.Garry, then a 33-year-old ambulance technician from Edinburgh, was driving a car to Tarbrax, South Lanarkshire, accompanied by Colin, 25.The classified documents – released today – state that Garry “was driving along the A70 when the object dropped a curtain of white light in front of the car”.The report continued: “His friend blacked out for what seemed like 10-15 seconds. He thought he had died. When he woke up the car was facing the other direction on the wrong side of the road. When he checked his watch he had lost about one hour.”It describes the UFO as being 20 feet high and 30 feet wide, and black with no lights, and tells how the claims were reported to police, a doctor, a psychologist and a university.Shortly after the incident, the pair visited paranormal investigator Malcolm Robinson, who convinced them to undergo hypnotic therapy, which was said to have revealed that the aliens experimented on the men.Mr Robinson, who helped write A70 – the film based on the claims which will be released later this year – said the terms of the movie deal banned Garry from talking about the MoD report.But speaking in 1996, Garry said: “I saw three creatures coming towards my car. I felt intense pain, like an electric shock. Then I was in some room. I saw these things like wee men moving about, doing something to me. Then this six-foot creature approached.“It was white-grey in colour with a large head and dark eyes with a long, slender neck, very slim shoulders and waist.“The little ones were about three feet tall and seemed to do all the work while the big ones did the communication.”He said one of the aliens spoke to him and said: “Sanctuary – we are here already and we are coming here.”Mr Wood also claimed that a red-hot, poker-like object was put into his eye, and he was surrounded by other crying humans.The classified documents also reveal how an air crew on a flight from Aberdeen to Edinburgh reported seeing, from their cockpit, a “bright light” rising through the air in December 1996.Meanwhile, George Foulkes, then a Labour MP, asked about the US Air Force’s Aurora project for a high-speed aircraft in the early 1990s, following reports of unidentified high-speed radar contacts around RAF Machrihanish in Kintyre. He was told the matter was an issue for the US authorities. - scotsman -----Helen: “I want you to relive that night Colin, see it, feel it where are you?”Colin: “Nowhere”.Helen: “Where is nowhere”. Colin: “Just nowhere, complete blackness”.Helen: “What are you looking at, what are you trying to see?”Colin: “I feel I’m going up”.Helen: “Going up?”Colin: “Uh huh”.Helen: “See it, feel it, can you hear anything”?Colin: “Nothing” Helen: “See it Colin, nothing can harm you at this moment, listen to the sound of my voice”, Colin’s body jerked suddenly.Colin: “ Creatures, I’m telling them to get lost”.Helen: “Where are you”?Colin: “I’m in a Bright room”.Helen: “What are they doing”?Colin: “They’re trying to undress me”.Helen: “Tell me what’s happening Colin”.Colin: “I’m sitting with no clothes on”.Helen: “Where are you sitting”?Colin: “A metal chair, it’s smooth and cold”.Helen: “How do you feel”?Colin: “Just cold”.Helen: “Tell me what is happening Colin”?Colin: “Something’s in my right eye”.Helen: “What’s in your right eye”?Colin: “I don’t know, it’s uncomfortable, like a red hot poker in the centre of my eye, it’s really sore”.Helen: “Who is putting this hot poker I to your eye”?Colin: “I can’t see anything”.Helen: “Is your left eye open”?Colin: “Uh huh”Helen: “Why are you shaking your head”? At this point Colin was moving his head from side to side.Colin: “I’m trying to get a good look at the thing, the thing that’s doing this to me to me”. Helen: “What’s Happening now”?Colin: “Just took it out of my eye, my right eye’s really burning, my eye’s really watering, it’s gushing”.Helen; “What kind of material was it, what did it feel like”?Colin; “It felt like there was something clamped on it, that there was something going into my eye”.Helen: “How did you get there Colin, how did you get there? I want you to relive your journey”Colin: “The car is in a big, bright, metallic room”.Helen: “How did it get there”?Colin: “It was lifted”.Helen: “How was it lifted”?Colin: “I don’t know, I just feel it juddering and being lifted”.Helen: “OK, go back to the beginning of your journey”.Colin: “Just passing the reservoir on the left hand side, just passing the farmhouse on the right. Doesn’t make sense, there’s no road, nothing; the car is definitely off it. There seems to be some kind of force, there is nothing physical that I can see. I’m cold; I’m getting carried along at some rate”. Colin’s body gave a powerful twitch. “I’m in that chair again…something’s looking at me back in the corridor, it’s…it was…ahhh…it’s ugly”.Helen: “Describe it Colin, describe the ugly thing”.Colin: “It’s ugly and it’s lurking in that corridor, it comes and goes, it seems ancient to me. Ugly…it’s really badly deformed, I’m not scared of it any more”. Colin began to laugh. “It seems that this thing has been in a fight and it’s the loser. I think it’s trying to manipulate me”.Helen: “In what way”?Colin: “I don’t know, ii think I’m pissing it off because I’m not scared any more. I’m laughing at it, it’s weird it’s away”. Colin’s head turned to the right. “ I can hear a noise behind me, I can’t think of a word to describe it”. His body convulsed briefly. “I’m staring at a wee one”.Helen: “A wee what”?Colin: “ A wee creature, it’s not very happy with me, I don’t think I was supposed to look behind my chair for some reason. It’s looking at me with those black eyes but I’ll not give in”. Helen: “You won’t give in to what”?Colin: “It’s trying to outstare me. It’s away; I don’t think it was very pleased with me. It just doesn’t want me to see what is behind me for some reason. If I try to do anything they’ll come round the corner and stop me”.Helen: “What do you have on Colin”?Colin: “Nothing, the chair is freezing, I keep wanting to get out of the chair but I bet it will be a big mistake”.Helen: “Did they speak to you”?Colin: “No, but I could tell it was pissed off. I’m looking at something, it looks like some sort of surgery tool, I think that’s what went into my eye”.Helen: “Can you describe it”?Colin: “It sort of comes down and bends to the left and then bends down again, it’s hard to describe. I’ve never see anything like it, it separates into four and there’s all just things hanging from it”.Helen: “Move on from there Colin”. He convulsed again. “What’s happening Colin”?Colin: “Two of them have got me by the feet and are dragging me toward a small archway”.Helen “How did you get out of the chair”? Colin: “They grabbed me by the feet, I think I pushed them off”.Helen: “What’s happening now”?Colin: “They’re dragging me back to the car, they’re not fussy about hurting me”. More convulsionsHelen: “Where are you now”?Colin: “Back in the car, back in the seat”.Helen: “Do you have your clothes on”?Colin: “Yes”.Helen: “Go back to when you put your clothes on, what’s happening”?Colin: “Putting my clothes on”.Helen: “Who”?Colin: “The wee aliens”.Helen: “How many are there”?Colin: “Four”. Again more convulsions. “There is a big alien in front of me doing something, my head is pounding. I don’t know if it’s giving me something or taking something out of my head. My mind goes black, then lighter, my head feels numb, it feels massive, it feels as if I’ve got a big forehead”. Colin’s hand came up and he rubbed forehead vigorously”Helen: “What’s happening”?Colin: “Shooting pain, I don’t know what they have done but it’s weird, my brain feels like it’s swollen and pushing my head out like it’s going to burst. I can’t handle this, it’s stopped, it’s weird”.Helen: “Can you move on, where are you now”?Colin: “Back on the road”.Helen: “How did you get there”?Colin: “Big bang then a thud”.Helen: “Anyone in the car with you”?Colin: “Gary’s looking at m, he’s bewildered, Garry’s asking me, did you see what I saw”?Helen: “ Did you see Garry on your travels”?Colin: “No, just now”.-----BA: “ I know you must be pissed off with the constant questions over the years, them and the same answers, but if possible could you try to forget it and pretend it’s the first time you’ve discussed this with anyone, will you try this”?Garry: “Aye ok”.BA: “How did you deal with the after effects of the incident”?Garry: “After what happened, Colin and I went back looking in the area and found stuff that had been in the car, dusters, rags and bits and pieces, as if someone had been raking around in the car. After this my car started growing a white ‘foost’, [a vernacular expression for fungus or dust] all over it. (The car was an almost new Vauxhall Astra).You know the kind of thing that develops on battery terminals, like crystallisation, but all over the car. I was always at the car removing this growth, rubbing down the paintwork and repainting it. I couldn’t understand it. I know cars, it’s my job, I’m an ambulance mechanic. I thought maybe it’s a bad earth, so I changed the earths but it made no difference. I tried everything but it made no difference, inside the boot, it was everywhere, this white crystallisation”.Garry also mentioned a dream experienced by both men,Garry: “I spoke with Colin at great length, talking even before we talked to Malcolm (Robinson), the only thing we had in common was, like, we both sort of had a dream, I don’t know, like we were away for ten years, and we came back and our family had all changed and everything like that. I know this sounds a bit…daft, but that’s kind of like the way that he thought and I thought”.BA: “Did you actually dream this while actually asleep or was it a general feeling”?Garry: “ No, it was just a feeling, really odd, a feeling”.BA: “How did Colin deal with the situation”?Garry: “Well, Colin at first was interested in it, talked to a few neighbours and so on, then he said he didn’t want to carry on with it, he knew what he saw and now he wanted to get on with his life. I tried to give him books on it but he said he didn’t want to go into it any more, but if I found out anything to let him know. He still come and sees me, we’re still mates”.BA: “Do you think Colin be prepared to talk about it”?Garry: “Yes, probably, I could ask him for you if you want”.BA: “Fine that would be fine, Garry, about the girl you saw in the craft, what about her, what became of her, did you see her again”.Garry: “I don’t know how this must sound, but all I could think of was getting out of there. I wasn’t interested in her, I didn’t care what happened to her, all I could think about was me, I wasn’t thinking how could I help her, all I was bothering about was me. I would have murdered, killed, anything to get away from there, I just wanted away”BA: “The hypnosis sessions, did the information come directly from the hypnosis or immediately after”?Garry: “Yeah, aye, ahha, Colin would talk under hypnosis, I wasn’t as good a subject, I seemed to find it more difficult”.BA: “The actual experiences of being underground, OK, obviously I wasn’t privy to the original sessions, why do you think you were underground”?Garry: “The things I saw underground, I saw a big craft in a big, huge open space under the ground.BA: “: Was it the same as the craft you’d seen”?Garry: “Ummm, it’s very vague in my mind and it was just like tunnels, dark tunnels”.BA: “It’s possible that this underground situation might not necessarily be on earth…it could have been anywhere…off this planet…could have been somewhere entirely different”Garry, “Well, the creatures I saw…I saw different things, the thing I remember is a being, right in my face. It said to me, I’ve got a life, a life like yours but different, things happen to us, but what’s got to be done’s got to be done”.BA: “Did they ever tell you why they were doing what they were doing”?Garry: Well, ah, it asked me for something and I was crying, I said, I can’t help you I’ve got a wife and children and this and that, and what it said it wanted was sanctuary”.BA: That was in some of the stuff I got from Malcolm, yes, sanctuary. When they asked for sanctuary did they think that you…that we could supply this sanctuary”?Garry: “I don’t know…ummm, it’s all…it said, your not living like you should be living, that’s what it told me, you’re not living like you should be living”’BA: “Did it elaborate on that”?Garry: “It said we were more advanced than them, it what way I don’t know, it said something about we were all capped, in what way I don’t know”.BA: “Capped, as in stopped from developing”?Garry: “Capped, I don’t know. They had a lot of trouble with the pressure because the big ones kept falling over but the wee ones weren’t”.BA: “Like the gravity was too intense for them”?Garry: “Like heavy pressure on them, they couldn’t handle it”.BA: “Yes, ok”.Garry: “Like pressure, I was two objects going away from my chest, just two objects going away…up in the…”.BA: “You were lying down at this time”?Garry: “ Aye, I was lying down and I saw two objects getting lifted away, physical objects lifted away. They turned me round, moved me, they were interested in my left leg. What it was, it sounds daft but these things were happy to see me, it was like they were glad, I don’t know but that’s what it seemed like”BA: “Did they hurt you, do you think they went out of their way to hurt you or it was just incidental to what they were doing”?Garry: “Between me and you I wasn’t terrible worried, I used to run out of my bed screaming at night, you can ask my wife.BA: “ Was this prior to this or after”?Garry: “After, it happened, I would get out of bed screaming at night, I would run out of the house, I would hug the covers. Kim [Garry’s wife] would say “You idiot, get back into bed”. What helped me; it’s why I’m in the nick [condition] I am today and have a better quality of life, is through Helen Walters and the hypnosis. If it wasn’t for that I’d still be scared.BA: “So she helped you get it out, externalise it”?Garry: “Whatever she did made me realise that whatever was done, whatever took place isn’t going to hurt me, that’s what I realise now and that’s why I’m not so scared now”.BA: “The procedures they [the abductors] carried out on you, were they invasive”?Garry: “It’s hard to…it’s…something took up the full width of my ear, it was buzzing, like interference, it was the full width of my mind and it was buzzing. There was this thing on the other side like a flap and there were two eyes on it. In this place there was like an object up on the wall and it was watching me and it was something horrible, I didn’t know what it was”.BA: “Malcolm mentioned a lens type thing in the room with you”.Garry: “Aye, yes, the black lens thing, about seven feet wide and it was the shape of a black eye and there were four packs, one there and there”. [Using his hands, Garry indicated the general shape of an eye with equidistant four objects framing it] “They were like, you know how you get a box of chocolates and some have lines on then the packs, they were like that? They were making this object fold in on itself like a black liquid and it would start spinning round and making a perfect ‘whooshing noise’. I’m used to listening to engines running and this was a perfect noise, a perfect like, whooshing noise”.BA: “Whooshing, a whooshing noise,… like air being moved”?Garry: “Aye, well like something, like it was all off balance then spot on like it was running perfect. They turned me round again and there was like a circular hole in the floor and there was a gel like substance like wallpaper paste, a clear gel and I saw something moving in it and one of these creatures climbed out of the gel. At this point I jumped out of the hypnosis. Now, some of these creatures looked like…they were bruised and had to be in this gel stuff, you know if you’re in water, it’s a good shock absorber say you were in a liquid it was in a vacuum. In a liquid you could move in dimensional arcs without being splattered, you know? I think this gel stuff was something to do with that”BA: “You mean you thought it was something to do with protecting against ‘G’ force”?Garry: “Yes like that, but it was connected with healing as well”.BA: “What else do you remember”?Garry: “I was taken to this place and I saw these things”. [Garry sketched out odd, almost sperm shaped objects]. “I saw these things like they were really, really thin and they had a funny shaped head and there were lots of them and they kept coming towards me, bending on themselves and going away.Now, this place I was in, it was like a red mist and these things were swimming in the red mist and all these things kept coming, big ones and wee ones and they were all looking at me and then they were like, you know, an eel would do and they were all coming up looking. They would fold back on themselves and head away. I think these things; you know how you get tadpoles and frogs? Well.I think these things were these bigger things, the tall things. [For clarification, I pressed Garry on this point: according to him, the reference to frogs and tadpoles is an earthly comparison to a pre-adult stage in the development of the tall, frail, translucent entities. We also discussed similarities between what Garry described and the phenomena of ‘Rods’, allegedly ultra fast, thin, eel like entities captured fleetingly on individual frames of film and videotape by researchers in Mexico].BA: “ Garry do these images come separately like snapshots or do they flow smoothly into one another”?Garry: “Like snapshots, even with the hypnosis it wasn’t clear, it jumped around”.BA: “What about other hypnotic sessions”?Garry: “Aye, I remember in one of the sessions… these things were strong… and they could move, oh yes they could move. This thing looked into my life, one thing I will state, right, put this on record, I meet people who know me and I don’t know who they are, its like certain sections of my life, years, are missing out of my memory, I can back this up with some of my friends. This thing looked into my life”.BA: “Do you think it stole your memory”?Garry: “Well, no, it never stole my memory, it looked into my life and I looked into it’s [life] and it couldn’t stop me… and it thought it was funny, it just… it thought it was funny. Then it said to me “I’ve a life like you but different, things happen to us” Like it was showing me. I don’t remember what it did show me, but it did, it did look into my life. And it couldn’t stop me looking into its and it didn’t like it.It had a problem with it because I think in didn’t know I could do what I was doing to it. I was in a state, fear and this thing was you know trying to calm me down, like I was really freaking out. I would have done what I had to do to get away from there, I’d have stabbed, murdered, anything to get away. I remember rocks; somewhere they took us, like rocks. Have you ever seen slate? Jagged, all these rocks were like that, like slate sticking up.These things were standing there behind the rocks, like they were waiting for us coming there. I also remember floating like you’ve no control over where you’re going. You can’t do anything because you’re just everywhere, no co-ordination, no control at all. I remember that because I was panicking.There was another thing, later. Kim (his wife) took a seizure and I had to take the boys to her mothers. I was working and I couldn’t look after them, so I took them to her mums. It was half six at night I was heading back with the boys and I was worried, I was in deep despair, really worried and I was panicking and crying to myself.Then there was this huge big, like thing, like a flash over the car, everything in the car, the whiteness, like magnesium white started to come in all over the car. It poured in all round us and the boys were screaming and…ahhh, I remember at the side of the road, stopped at the side of the road and I asked Garry (his oldest son) what he thought and he said “It was like being in heaven”. The youngest lad, he was being sick, but Garry, that’s what Garry actually said… “It was like being in heaven… like being in heaven”… -
