The Falcon Lake UFO

Falcon Lake Incident

The Falcon Lake Incident occurred on May 20, 1967, when Stefan Michalak claimed that he encountered a unidentified flying object (UFO) near Falcon Lake, Manitoba, Canada. He claimed to have been burned by the craft's exhaust vent, which was in an ovular grid pattern

The Incident

Shortly after 12:00 noon Michalak’s concentration was disturbed by a noise similar to geese’s grunts. When he looked up, he spotted two cigar-shaped objects, which were red and brilliant as fire. They were descending at 45 degrees, as calculated by the witness. He also noticed that the closer they came the more oval they became.

One of the objects stopped in the air, while the other landed on a big rock 160 feet away from Michalak. After some moments, the object floating above Michalak changed its colour to grey, and then flew directly west, disappearing through the clouds. The landed object also changed to grey, and then to a colour similar to incandescent stainless steel.

From the interior opening of the object, some violet light rays were emitted. As Michalek was using special glasses to examine the quartz, the rays didn’t affect him. The object had a sulfurous smell, and a humming noise.

Half an hour passed, and Michalak still was observing the unknown craft. Suddenly, a door opened and he could see that the interior of the UFO was very illuminated. He approached some meters and heard some voices coming from inside the ship.

Believing that the object was an experimental flying object, he tried to make contact in English. As no answers were given, he tried other languages in vain. Nervous, he walked to the open door, and saw a panel and some lights inside the ship.

He did not see anybody, so he waited. Suddenly, the door closed. Despite the surprise, he discovered a colourful glass around the UFO. It was very well-conserved, with no cracks. He attempted to touch it, but his glove simply melted, the heat hurting his hand through the glove's protection.

Quietly, a metallic box full of holes got off the UFO, what seemed to be a grid-like exhaust vent. A steamy explosion occurred, and some kind of gas was expelled in his direction. Immediately, his clothes started to burn. As the object flew after the other one, Michalak was left behind desperately trying to extinguish the fire.
