Another excellent post Karl, this guy comes across as 100% reasonable and grounded in reality. The story that he told is absolutely believable, and the thing that he mentioned about the 'luminescence-trails' under the sea being possible traces [skid-marks] of USO's has long been a strong possibility to me as well, there has been a multitude of submerged luminosity reports from sailors throughout man's seafaring history. Reports in which the lights or trails of light are seen to move at great speeds, I always thought didn't match up to the natural bio-luminescent life forms that inhabit our oceans, and as these were relatively frequently witnessed by experienced old sea dogs long before the advent of submarines , then then it certainly stands to reason that there is indeed something peculiar going on under the sea.


Cheers Buddy.

Hola my friend and seasons greetings to you (and everyone else) - certainly agree there's something peculiar going on under the sea mate and the sheer volume of USO reports (or UFOs emerging from / submerging into the world's oceans) is a bit of a shocker - once took part in a thread which involved over 30 pages of reports from naval officers, ship's captains, crewmen, coastguards, submariners, fishermen, airline pilots, policemen, sonar operators etc. so the testimony is definitely out there.

This interview with Carl Feindt is a great one (if anyone's not heard it before) and I really do agree that the 'marine aspect' of the UFO subject is a really important one.

Full Preview: We kick things off with the standard bio / background on Carl Feindt, how he got interested in the UFO phenomenon, specifically the water-UFO connection. We then discuss why it seems like USOs have remained in the background of UFO studies. After that, we talk about Carl's exhaustive website waterufo.net and how he collected the vast number of cases detailed at the site.

Recently watched this old doco and was reminded that the Bethune case also involved unknown objects 'on the water'- very interesting stuff!

Hola to you too my friend, and it goes without saying that my wishes of a brilliant festive season is with you and yours as well old buddy.
And yes, I recall the USO thread [and many others] of yours that I learned a great deal about the phenomenon from.
It was probably from one of these fine threads that I first heard of Carl W Feindt, his work and his site and have taken in several interviews with him and have to agree that he is indeed a very important figure in the whole ETH scene and especially the 'water connection'. His character may not have the same 'romantic old adventurer' vibe as Ivan T Sanderson, ... but what is his strength is his more altogether circumstantial unembellished directness that may not always be said about Ivan. lol. [although even he cannot convince me that Linda Cortile isn't just a fantasist]

Yes I have been aware of Graham Bethune and his fascinating encounter for many years, and am always quick to add to any discussion about that great encounter that he , the crew members and passengers had with the large UFO back in 1951 that I have no doubt that the encounter really did happen as he recalled, and that it was to my mind at least, certainly an extra0terrestrial encounter [and not the secret Russian craft tests that his superiors suggested], his character always comes across as being nothing less than upright and reputable . And since seeing him recount his experience on several different occasions , nothing has made me change my mind that he is telling the truth about his encounter!..... though I did at one time have to shake my head when he was speaking at one of those Steven Greer get-togethers and said that none of his sons whom were normal youngsters of about 10 and 12 in the 1950's had ever heard of flying saucers! ... 1950's... flying saucers... ?? ... Who are you kidding Graham? Flying saucers was the biggest thing in the world for young boys back in the 1950's! ... unless of course they didn't have access to comics, TV, the movies or the company of any other normal kids? ... but I guess that he either threw that bit of nonsense in simply for the effect, or ... he was just a busy pilot that didn't spend much time with his boys.
...But all in all, I still regard his encounter as a pukka case!

Cheers Buddy.

Hola 1963 and a very happy new year to you mate (and everyone else) - I´m sure you´ve seen it before but for those who are interested Carl Feindt´s master list can be found here - also when it comes to the Bethune case I think my favourite part is that (although it's said all 31 crew and passengers on the plane witnessed the object) the psychiatrist on board kept his eyes shut because he didn't want to lose his job.

"About 300 miles outside of Argentia, Newfoundland, I saw a glow on the water. As we approached this glow, it turned into hundreds of circles of white lights on the water. We watched it for a while; when the lights went out, there was nothing on the water. The next thing that we saw was a yellow halo that was very small, about 15 miles away. It came up to 10,000 feet in a fraction of a second. I disengaged the autopilot and pushed the nose over, because I was going to go under it at the angle that it was coming toward me. The minute that I did that, it was up at our altitude and I could see nothing outside of the cockpit but this craft."

"I didn't know which way to go. Then all of a sudden I heard a racket. I didn't know what it was. And I said: 'What the hell was that?' One of the crewmen looked around and said: 'Everyone [in the plane] was ducking [down] and they collided [with each other]. They were all lying on the [floor of the plane]."

"Then [the UFO] appeared over to the right, moved out slowly and flew with us. It was not at our altitude, but we could see the shape of it. It was a dome and I could see the coronal discharge. I went back aft, let the other pilot, Al Jones, take my seat, and went to see if the passengers were OK. They had some bumps and bruises. One passenger was a doctor so I went to him first. I said: 'Doc, did you see what we saw?' He looked me straight in the eye and said: 'Yeah, it was a flying saucer.' He said: 'I didn't look at it because I don't believe in such things.' It took me a couple of seconds to realize what he was saying. Being a psychiatrist, he couldn't believe in that kind of thing."

"So I went back to the cockpit and said, 'Al, whatever you do, don't tell anybody we saw anything. They will lock us up as soon as we get on the ground.' He says: 'It's too late. I just called Gander control [in Newfoundland] to see if they could track this by radar.' So that's how the story got out."

"It was obvious from the questions and demeanor of the US Navy men who debriefed us that they'd seen things out there before. When the crew returned to the Patuxant River Naval Air Test Center in Maryland, they required that each of us writes a report."

All the best pal.

Hi Karl, hope you are well mate, .. Don't Know if you have already seen this amigo, but I think that it is something of great interest , and might just turn out to be the 'next big thing in ufology'... it's this [reluctant to be identified] sailor's story that seems to be authenticated by 'The Parallax Site's FOIA chief Marc Cecotti' via FOIA as well as fine research-skills. ... It occurred as recently as July 2019 and concerns multiple [similar UFO/UAV's to the Nimitz and Roosevelt Tic Tac objects] that were witnessed on about 5 consecutive nights and even at times circling the USS Kidd. ... and the possibility that the navy were actually trying to recover one of these little curiosities by attempting to 'knock it out of the air for retrieval with a giant rubber bullet, surely has to make anyone smile lol' “Multiple UAVs around the ship” - Investigating the USS Kidd UAV incident (parallaxuap.blogspot.com)

Hey many thanks for posting that one mate, looks to be some very interesting info and research - had also never heard of a SNOOPIE team before.

Some other strange goings on described below from aboard the USS Independence in 1973.

Apparently"Gentlemen what you have just witnessed did not happen".

MUFON Case# 64758 The primary witness served on the USS Independence CV-62 as a refueling technician on the deck of the ship. Within the month of June in 1973 The crew of the ship according to the primary witness saw a very bright light in the night hours 01:00 hours under the aircraft carrier. The primary witness judge the size of the light/object under the USS Independence was compared to a paper clip being held in your hand the your hand is the object. According to the the primary witness the object emitting the light moved in front of the carrier and lifted out of the water blinding everyone on the deck. The light then was described to instantly shoot out of sight. The movement of the object according to the witness was disorienting due to the size of the object.

Also a similar(ish) case from August 4th, 1950 aboard the merchant ship “Marcala” off the U.S. East Coast.
