Another Disappearing Crane Incident in Oklahoma

 

Joey "UFO Magnet" George was out by the levee in West Tulsa on Saturday, April 9, 2022 when he encountered a large crane which disappeared into thin air. This marked the fifth such incident Joey experienced.

Joey says, “I hiked down the Arkansas Riverbank about a quarter mile, packing my rock hammer and flint knapping tools, my binoculars, telescope, folding chair, a bright spotlight, & some chocolate chip cookies. I planned on harvesting some flint from the riverbank, as my supply for crafting arrowheads was almost completely diminished. I found a satisfactory point that offered a plethora of stones of all sorts, being birthed of the water & sand. I arrived later than expected, and soon the daylight gave way to pinks & oranges, which were quickly consumed by dark purples and blues, giving the Western sky a bruised appearance before being swallowed by darkness.

I retrieved the spotlight from my duffel bag to continue my search for flint. The battery was drained within 5 minutes, ending the hunt, and leaving me behind to the mercy of the darkness. This was the moment I had REALLY come here for, and I eagerly set up the telescope & dialed it in. Settling back in my lawn chair, binoculars around my neck, I opened the package of cookies and waited. Several planes & helicopters flew overhead throughout the two hours that I sat there by the river, sky watching.

With a clear view of the downtown Tulsa skyline in the distance, looking so tiny, that I could hold the whole city in the palm of my hand, I observed a few stars, the Moon, and a couple of distant lights that just faded out and were never seen again. All in all, it was a pretty uneventful night. I didn't find any flint, and the sky didn't offer much excitement other than a brilliant sunset. It was about 11 p.m. when I decided to start packing up to start the hike back to the truck. I was done with the night, but little did I know, the night was not done with ME! I was about to receive a visit from an old friend. For the bigger half of my life, I have had an unexplained relationship with birds. Having countless strange, some even impossible encounters! I was at this moment unaware, as I always was, that I was about to have what would be my 5th encounter with what has come to be called, "The Disappearing Crane."

As I finished stuffing everything back into the bag and slung it over my shoulder, I was startled by the sight of an enormous bird flying completely silent over the water, about 30 ft in front of me. I watched in amazement, taking in every detail of the bird’s grace as it silently glided through the darkness. It seemed impossible to me that something so HUGE & so CLOSE could move without making any sound! I pulled my green laser pointer out of my pocket. It had the kaleidoscope screw-on tip attached, that offered an elaborate design pattern when the attachment was turned. I aimed it in the giant bird's direction, trying to get its attention. I pressed the button a couple times, watching, never letting my eyes leave the dark silhouette the crane had become.

To my surprise, I watched the bird now getting larger, where it had been growing smaller, as it got further away. It was coming back towards me! Yes, it was coming straight in my direction, growing larger still! It had somehow changed direction without turning around!? This did not make any Earthly sense, but it was happening right before my eyes! It grew larger, closer still. Right as I thought to myself, "This creature is going to slam right into me!" It vanished & was gone, leaving behind just me, the night, and another fond memory of an unlikely and mysterious friend.”

This incident, and others like it are included in the book "Winged Aliens," which is available at Amazon.com.

Daniel Boone's Bigfoot Sighting

Before his death in 1820, famous explorer and pioneer Daniel Boone spoke of once killing a giant 10-foot hairy creature. It is unclear where this occurred but likely it was in Kentucky, where he lived with his family from 1775, or Missouri where he settled in 1799. Boone had been previously silent about the matter, only sharing the story with a few people, but during the year prior to his death he told several people about the encounter, possibly in an attempt to get the tale out before he passed on. 

The most notable written account is from the book DANIEL BOONE: THE LIFE AND LEGEND OF AN AMERICAN PIONEER by John Mack Faragher:

“After the meal one of the men asks Boone for a story, and he begins a tale but is interrupted by a man who claims that his story is ‘impossible.’ With this remark Boone shuts up and despite urgings that he continue, he refuses to speak further. Later that evening, when he has retired to the room he shares with the son of the tavern keeper, the boy asks him about his silence. ‘I dislike to be in a crowd’ Boone explains, and ‘would not have opened my lips had that man remained.’ Well, we are alone now, says the boy, and he presses the old man to tell the story. ‘You shall have it, honey’ says Boone, who has taken a fancy to him, and proceeds to tell of killing a ten foot, hairy giant he called a ‘Yahoo.’

Boone's favorite book was Gulliver's Travels written in 1726 by Jonathan Swift. In the book the giant hairy humanoids were called Yahoos, so it seems fitting that Boone would give the creature he saw that name. Swift describes the Yahoos thus:

"My horror and astonishment are not to be described, when I observed in this abominable animal, a perfect human figure: the face of it indeed was flat and broad, the nose depressed, the lips large, and the mouth wide; but these differences are common to all savage nations, where the lineaments of the countenance are distorted, by the natives suffering their infants to lie grovelling on the earth, or by carrying them on their backs, nuzzling with their face against the mothers’ shoulders. The fore-feet of the Yahoo differed from my hands in nothing else but the length of the nails, the coarseness and brownness of the palms, and the hairiness on the backs. There was the same resemblance between our feet, with the same differences; which I knew very well, though the horses did not, because of my shoes and stockings; the same in every part of our bodies except as to hairiness and colour, which I have already described."

The real question is - where did author Jonathan Swift get the idea for Yahoos? Did Swift encounter a Sasquatch himself?

Fairy sighting at KCI Airport

Tony Degn is no stranger to unexplained phenomena. He is a primary witness to the Mothman sightings in the greater Kansas City area, having encountered the creature at least five times. Tony is also a UFO witness, with his first experience at age 17, and he's seen a few ghosts, too. Now he claims to have seen a fairy.

Tony is an entertainer and a driver for Uber. At the time of this event he was living in Independence, Missouri and often worked at the Kansas City International Airport where he would park on standby until a call came in for a customer. 

While waiting in the taxi area at KCI Airport in the mid-afternoon in May of 2021, Tony noticed something luminous with wings flying down in front of his windshield. At first he thought it was an insect, but it was all white and very bright and he thought that was odd, so he took a closer look at it. 

The creature hovered at about mid-way of the windshield, fluttering its wings, while staring at Tony for a few seconds - long enough for him to get a good look at it. It was a female fairy with a human-like body and face dressed in a long white dress. The most amazing part of the description is that it was only about 1 1/2 inches tall!  Tony said "I was just shocked, and sat there with my mouth open, staring into the eyes of this tiny being. I still can't believe what I saw, but I know I saw it." Tony always has his cell phone ready to photograph anything anomalous, but he was too shocked to think about picking the phone up this time. That is not unusual - many people react the same way. 

Tony insists that the creature could have been nothing other than a fairy. The diminutive size of the creature is most perplexing, however.

I've taken reports from other witnesses who claim to have seen very small fairies under 1 1/2 inches tall. Two couples in Oklahoma who are unacquainted with each other have seen the same type of fairies along the same park. A man in California who says he has seen tiny fairies at the same location since the 1970's claims to see them on a daily basis. A witness in Georgia claims to have seen small fairies in his backyard since he moved into his new house in 2020. 

It is my hope that someone will eventually get photographs of these elusive tiny creatures.

First UFO Sighting Report in the U.S.

Un-X Magazine published the following article in  the spring issue of 2012:

From Filer’s Files: (reprinted with permission)

Boston,  Mass.

 

Governor John Winthrop
Source: Wikipedia

Founder and Governor John Winthrop stated “We shall be as a City upon a Hill; the eyes of all people are upon us." He made a peculiar entry in his journal in 1639 documenting the first UFO sighting in American history.

 “In this year, one James Everell, a sober, discreet man, and two others, saw a great light in the night at Muddy River. When it stood still, it flamed up, and was about three yards square; when it ran, it was contracted into the figure of a swine: it ran as swift as an arrow towards Charlton [Charlestown], and so up and down [for] about two or three hours. They were come down in their lighter about a mile, and, when it was over, they found themselves carried quite back against the tide to the place they came from. Diverse and other credible persons saw the same light, after, about the same place.”

An amazing discovery. According to M.K. Stoskopf, “it should be recognized that serendipitous discoveries are of significant value in the advancement of science and often present the foundation for important intellectual leaps of understanding.”

Steve Pearse served four years in the military with the United States Army Security Agency 77th SOU (Clark Air Base) with a top secret teletype crypto clearance. He is now a lay scientist, e-book author, and a retired business professional with over 25 years in the field of credit management and account reconciliation of state, federal, and mass merchandiser accounts. As a lay scientist, Steve uses his strong analytical and research skills in studying the extraterrestrial hypothesis (ETH); specifically the question humanity has been asking for thousands of years: Are we alone in the Universe?
    
In the year 2000, Steve Pearse came to the conclusion that many so called anecdotal accounts involving UFOs -- which were so often dismissed in the media as unreliable testimony -- were actually true. A turning point came when Steve stumbled across shocking new information relating to Betty Hill's star map, which in turn led him on an exhaustive eight year investigation into the extraterrestrial hypothesis.

The culmination of Steve Pearse's research resulted in his book, "Set Your Phaser to Stun". There is little doubt that his discovery will be a stunning revelation to everyone who reads this important book.

Not only has Steve Pearse scientifically proven that the star map Betty Hill was shown in 1961 is actually Earth-based, he has located the home world of an extraterrestrial species that has been reported by thousands of people worldwide.

Seeking the Spook Light

 By Corey Childs

 

It was the early 2000's and I was running my own paranormal investigation team. I had read up on countless legends around The Show Me State that I called home.

    The Joplin Spooklight was interesting, it had a rich history, and from what I had read it was our best chance at obtaining evidence. Our best chance because it was reoccurring and had been spotted for years. Reports stated that if you parked on the Oklahoma East 50 Road, near the three state junction of Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma on a dark night, your chances of viewing the unexplained were better than not.

     The history of the light was filled with legend which made it hard to tell fact from fiction. It was said that in the late 1800's it became part of local Native American lore with a love story element to the lights origin. It was also said that the light was the spirit of a local woman searching nightly for her missing husband. It was also said that the light was investigated in 1946 by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers who deemed the light as "A mysterious light of unknown origin." The light even appeared on an episode of Unsolved Mysteries.

     Over time the light had gone by several names including The Devil's Promenade, Hornet Spook Light etc...

So yours’ truly, a young investigator, set out to solve this long mystery. We arrived approximately three hours before dusk and drove the "haunted" road and all nearby roads, something we did before all investigations. The road had a spooky look and it was easy to imagine it to be haunted. It looked like it were straight out of a  horror movie. The vegetation and trees canopied several parts of the road. Most of the road cut through wooded areas and open fields. As the summer sun sank into the sky the road looked like an old time drive-inn theater. Cars lined both sides of the road and teenagers sat on the hoods waiting to witness the mysterious light.

Upon speaking with some of the locals we got even more stories. Stories of the light passing through cars, chasing cars and people. Most of the witnesses said that when the light got close they could feel heat off of it. From these statements the light sounded more like a fireball than a UFO in the sky.

     We broke out our equipment (Night vision, Cameras, Binoculars, digital temperature gauge etc...) and were ready for anything. The teenagers that lined the road were also ready, some standing on the hoods of their car for a better view. Then in the distance we began to see lights. Low to the ground and bright green in color an orb moved around in a circle about 100 feet from us. Then another, this time white in color and about 50 feet from us. Through the night vision cameras we discovered that these were the teenagers with flashlights and glow sticks.  We were disappointed because if there were a mysterious light here the teenagers might destroy our investigation.

      We toughed it out though, and just kept our eyes in the tree line. A few hours went by and all the teenagers left. It was only the investigative team at this point and within minutes we saw an auburn light swaying back and forth in the

roadway. We looked through the night vision and binoculars and saw the dim light with nobody around. The light swayed back and forth in an area approximately three to four feet wide.

      We weren't going to chance being fooled so we drove to the location quickly in order to catch any possible hoaxers. The road was fairly straight in this area, but had had small hills that caused you to lose sight of the light when going up and down. This was a problem because the light disappeared... every time.

 At this point it was time to try something different. We drove with no headlights on to see if our lights might have affected the spooklight, (Driving without headlights is dangerous and not recommended). That changed nothing however, and the light again vanished.

     We then set out on foot and still had the same result. After about an hour we tried yet another technique where two of us set out on foot while two people stayed in our original location with eyes on the light. The two watchers who stayed behind reported that as we approached the light it raised up into the sky and stopped at the top of the tree line. Shortly after the light vanished and did not return.

      We then attempted to recreate the light by driving on the nearby roads with our headlights on regular and bright beams. We were unable to recreate the light.
   
Many others have investigated The Joplin Spooklight(s) without finding the source or sources.  Like others of its kind, the light remains a mystery to this day.
