Ufonaut (August 2009, Risør, Norway)

The witness said that he was walking in his local woodland at roughly midday when he came across two 'small lights' floating in front of him. He able to get about 3 meters (10 feet) away from the anomalous object until it 'began swirling faster and faster until a black hole appeared'. A glowing sphere with legs fell out of the portal and started to 'walk' towards him, at which point he tried to run away and hide in the woods but described the automaton as moving through the trees 'like there were no trees'. The witness feared for his life at this point, and so he decided to confront the object. When he grabbed it with his hands, he felt a strange 'electric and vibrating shock' and was promptly thrown backwards into the air, only to land in a nearby farm field. He describes a sensation like he was 'sinking into the ground', and then says that he heard a voice that he believes could have been speaking either Hebrew or Arabic.
He screamed, begging for help, and turned his head to see a white male about 250cm (8 feet) standing there. He went into shock and then an additional three orbs showed up by his side. What he describes simply as 'grey humanoids' then emerged from the spheres, and 'looked angry' at him, whereupon the taller white humanoid pointed at the woods and commanded the small greys to 'roll away'. The man doesn't elaborate further on his story, but he claims to have been with the entities for about 8 hours.

Henderson Island Monster (Henderson Island, Puget Sound, July 1893)

The first description of this bizarre event was found in the Tacoma Daily Ledger of July 3^rd, 1893. A group of men were on a fishing expedition at Henderson Island off Puget Sound when they (as well as a small group of surveyors) witnessed the creature in question. A loud noise was followed by a strong electric current and bright lights – and two men who touched the water were rendered senseless immediately. The creature that seemed to be the origin of the light and sound dived beneath the water at this point, but the light that shone from its body remained visible. The beast was described as 150ft (or 45.7m) long and was 30ft (or 9m) wide at its thickest point. Its head was supposedly larger than that of a walrus but resembled this in shape. It had six eyes, all of which were large and dull. The electricity that had previously knocked out two witnesses appeared to come from ‘copper bands’ encircling its body, and it flung out electrified water from hornlike protuberances on its head. In place of a tale, it seemed to have a propeller which revolved. Loren Coleman, a famous cryptozoologist, suggested that the Henderson Island Monster was an unidentified submersible object rather than a living organism. The witnesses would beg to differ. However, if it was a machine, where would such an awesome contraption have come from in the 19^th century?
