Introduction

"From the start it was plain to see this was no Russian Spy Plane. It was a large disc "flying Saucer" on its back with heat still radiating from the ground around it...It was decided to wait until the heat subsided before moving in as fire was a significant risk, this was made all the worse by the screams of the Freak creatures that were lying by the vehicle. What in gods name they were no one could tell but one things for sure, they were Circus Freaks, creatures with no business here. Each had hold of a box which they kept hold of in both arms close to their chests".   -The Cameraman

Who is the cameraman? More on that later.

This is a true story that has its start almost 3 decades ago.

My wife and I were returning home to California from a trip to New Mexico on Sunday, September 3, 1995. FM reception had been poor that day so as we approached Reno, I turned on the radio, hoping for some mellow sounds. Luckily, the scan-tune landed on Art Bell's Dreamland, and I lingered there for a consequential moment, listening to an expert on movie cameras explain film dating. The substance of his remarks and the subsequent wrap-up by Bell seemed to indicate that the Roswell Alien Autopsy footage, shown on Fox TV the previous week, was probably authentic.

Could this possibly be correct? All the communication coming from the UFO community for the last three months had been contrary to this notion. Art Bell's contagious excitement piqued my interest; I decided to reexamine my assumptions about this potentially explosive but controversial film footage.

That's the way it all began for me and my involvement with the Santilli Alien autopsy. Since then my main focus has been to try and convince other members of the UFO community to take another look at the autopsy footage. It has been an uphill struggle. I've spent many hours viewing the AA footage and I'm convinced that it portrays a real event. I've found nothing that seems out of place or consistent with a hoax or fraud.
