The Siberian Times reported this week that the world famous director would be visiting Lake Baikal in May to kick off the filming of “Depth 211,” a documentary about one of Siberia’s hottest hotbeds of UFO activity.



Vyacheslav Lavretevich, a rescuer, recalled an incident but did not give the date. 'We were on a yacht on Lake Baikal, and from under us flew out a huge glowing disk. It blinded us, and for a second flew into the sky.



'We did not even have time to grab any cameras, nor take video, although many of us saw it. It was a huge - and lit up all of our yacht. In diameter it was probably 500-700 metres, a huge disk.



'For three minutes it shone from below (the surface), and then abruptly departed in a second. The spectacle was huge, awesome. Beautiful, and shocking.'



While there have been many sightings of glowing objects and flying saucers over the lake, the most interesting sightings have come from divers exploring its depths.



...



The most famous encounter was in 1982 when seven military divers came face-to-face with aliens. Historian Alexey Tivanenko describes the meeting:







At a depth of 50 meters, they met swimmers, around three meters tall, dressed in tight-fitting silvery suits. They did not have any scuba or other devices, just helmets on their heads.

The divers suddenly and mysteriously found themselves on the shore suffering from decompression and three of them died.

I sure hope this happens (apparently there are only rumors so far). This lake has been the scene of some absolutely fascinating unexplained incidents. There's a few threads on the lake already if you're interested, although they are a few years old.The lake is quite big and it's surrounded entirely by mountains. For whatever reason, it has been a UFO hotspot for many years. There have been rumors of a secret UFO base near the lake. Here's a recent picture allegedly depicting the lights of one of these UFOs:Petroglyphs (prehistoric rock carvings) in the area were said to look like the beings the divers encountered.It would appear that if the stories are true, whatever those divers encountered has been around for quite some time. The lake is25 million years old.I don't know about you all, but assuming "Depth 211" is happening I'll sure be watching!sources:
