TrumanB Posted January 1 #1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cash–Landrum_incident https://unsolvedmysteries.fandom.com/wiki/Betty_Cash_and_Vickie_Landrum OK, there are arguments that this is not an UFO case (women may have been already ill although it looks that they had the same package of symptoms; and may have seen mirage of Canopus) but...what were 12 helicopters doing there? You don't see 12 Chinook-type helicopters every day. Eyewitnesses in this case are credible. Edited January 1 by TrumanB 1 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's deffo proven then. Congrats. Seriously, there are holes the size of a blind elephant in this story, and not one shred of evidence, not even of their alleged injuries. Plus that Wiki article is missing a whole pile of cites. All in all... a pretty typical UFO=alienz case. 3 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrumanB Posted January 1 Author #4 Share Posted January 1 Oh, by the way there is a book on this topic written by NASA engineer https://www.amazon.in/Cash-Landrum-UFO-Incident-John-Schuessler/dp/1519696558 This looks like an interesting read.

Trelane Posted January 1 #5 Share Posted January 1 I see 12 Chinooks almost every day. Also, Blackhawks and Apaches. Not that rare really, there are National Guard units that have lots and lots of Chinooks. 2 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a couple here who's greatest joy in life is taking a big old dump on others from their lofty perch, high above the dimwitted commoners. 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trelane Posted January 2 #8 Share Posted January 2 All it takes is a casual search of military installations nearby. You'll find the home of the mysterious and inexplicable choppers. 4 2 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was standing next to the car so why was she not burned to a crisp? Personally I've discussed this case a thousand times over & the replies to this question from those who believe it happened have been amusing 4 3 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't see 12 Chinook-type helicopters every day. Eyewitnesses in this case are credible. You really dig these played out well debunked tales. 12 Choppers ? I read this case too many times too many places with too much contradictory accounts, like number of choppers, that btw it was never proven even one chopper was there now was it? Sorry, eyewitnesses are never credible, even sincerity does mean a person isnt wrong, hoaxed, lying or mentally ill etc. After all the research i have done on this case i have come to a conclusion that they might have saw something that was the seed to make up the rest. Not unlike other such cases like betty barney hill and travis Walton. https://skeptoid.com/episodes/4652 5 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stereologist Posted January 16 #13 Share Posted January 16 One of the things I learned about this incident is that they could not find where the event happened despite the author of the book claiming otherwise. https://skepticalinquirer.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2014/03/p28.pdf Quote Claimed physical traces from the in- cident seem to be among the strongest pieces of evidence supporting the case. Collins writes, “When discussing the case, Schuessler told how the witnesses were able to return to the precise loca- tion, and that the scene contained some identifiable, distinct features” Quote I then asked Mr. Schuessler if he had pin-pointed the location of the siting [sic]. Mr. Schuessler stated that due to the late hour and the ladies’ emo- tional state they could only state that they believed they saw the object on the straight portion of FR 1485 between a beer joint and some kind of highway warning sign. 3 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
