Airline pilots spotting something odd at 35,000 feet over Pakistan? Check. Footage of a possible “Ningen” (apparently, a whale-humanoid cryptid…sure) captured by a Japanese research vessel? Double-check. A levitating dead bird? Okay, now things are getting weird, even for The Proof Is Out There.
This week’s grab bag of the unexplained seems particularly ambitious, covering air, sea, and…well, wherever dead birds float in the absence of gravity.
Tony Harris and his team return, armed with their usual arsenal of blurry stills and speculative pronouncements. The Pakistani UFO incident sounds like standard fare for this type of show, but the Ningen and the floating bird? That’s where things get interesting, if only for the sheer absurdity.
One wonders if Harris and company will be able to connect these disparate events with their usual brand of scientific analysis, or if even they will be left scratching their heads at the sheer strangeness of it all. Either way, it sounds like a decent way to spend an hour for those who appreciate the allure of the inexplicable.
