Seattle, Washington - A woman woke in the early hours when a `football sized' machine floated in through the window of her room, settling - with an extruded tripod
of landing legs - onto her bedroom carpet.
Six `tiny people in tight-fitting clothing' rushed down a ramp, began working on the machine, completed whatever tasks were necessary and, piling back into the machine, immediately took off - through the open window.
Whereupon the woman found herself free of the paralysis which had frozen her throughout this brief `pit stop' of `little people'.

"On 13 August 1967 48 year old Inacio de Souza and his wife Luiza were returning from the local village Pilar de Goaias (240 km from Brasilia - capital of Brazil) to the ranch where they lived and worked. Approaching the ranch they saw threee child-like "beings" `playing' (dancing?) on the ranch's landing strip.
The beings noticed the de Souzas and began to approach them and just then "an unknown craft appeared on the scene" - looking like an "up-turned basin" hovering above the end of the landing strip. "De Souza reached for his .44 carbine and fired at one of the figures", whereupon the craft emitted a beam of green light which knocked him to the ground. As Louiza went to her husband's aid, the beings entered the hovering "basin" - which immediately took off at high speed. In next few days and weeks de Souza fell sick and was diagnosed with burns in 6 inch circles on head and upper body. Finally it was clear that he was in last stages of leukaemia and he died on 11 Oct 1967, just about 3 months after the confrontation.

04 July, 1969, Anolaima, Columbia Arcesio Bermudez, with some friends spotted a `shining sphere' hovering near his home. He shone his flashlight, as a greeting maybe. Within few days he became seriously ill and was taken to Bogota Hospital - where he was attended by Dr. Luis Borda & Dr. Cesar Esmeral.
But Arcesio worsened, and on July 12 he died, with symptoms ` like gamma-ray poisoning'.
