The UFO Phenomenon

UFO spotter gets targeted by 'Men in Black'

Father-of-two Liam Freaney received unexpected visits after witnessing a number of UFOs near his home.
Freaney, who was a builder by trade, had little interest in the subject of UFOs until one day in March 2013 when he and his workmate witnessed a number of strange lights in the skies over New South Wales followed by the appearance of a military aircraft which seemed to be pursuing them.

A few months later the objects started to appear on a regular basis, prompting Freaney to purchase a video camera so that he could try to record some footage, but as he stepped up his efforts to determine what the objects could be he started to attract an entirely unwanted type of attention.

"I would see and film an object then directly afterwards I would get home and a helicopter would show up and sit over the house," he said. "So I started filming the helicopters as well as the unidentified flying objects. It happened over and over again, 20 or 30 times at least."

"When they hover the height of a lamp post above your house and lean out the window it's definitely not military training. Maybe I have filmed something I shouldn't have. That's a possibility."
The incidents eventually came to a head two weeks before he was due to talk about his experiences at a local UFO group. He had been out driving his car near his home when a large black saloon drove up behind and pulled him over on to the side of the road.

Two men in black suits got out and approached the window of his vehicle. The strangers knew him by name and warned him in no uncertain terms that it would be best if he kept his mouth shut.

Despite feeling initially apprehensive however Freaney decided to go ahead with the talk anyway.

"The purpose of this whole two and a half years of contact that has happened to me I believe is for me to pass on the message that it is happening and that it is real," he said.

"The only thing I have got out of it is to tell people what I am seeing."

Had it been in America, I would think the guy would shoot the MIBs. Being as it happened in Wales, what could he have done? Thrown a Stonehenge lintel at them?

Its just another vague report countless other people have made before. Footage of a helicopter is not proof of anything

I never understood why black helicopters or any helicopter for that matter would be involved in a chase for a ufo. If there is any truth to ufo's speeding off in the blink of an eye then why choose helicopters? That's like chasing down a Lamborghini with a Zamboni. If you see helicopters accompanying something it's more than likely an exercise. If there's helicopters above your house because you're seeing ufos then quit cooking up meth because that's why they're there.

The helicopter didn't chase UFO, but stood over the roof of the guy who filmed the UFOs and military planes (which were probably jets etc fighters because helis are slow in comparison). I doubt that two government agents would approach a civilian in high profile black suits and warn Usually, the government approaches you with Federal Agents and tells you that your footage is to be confiscated and they have a warrant to search the premises for anything that could jeopardize National security. After taking the footage and whatever else they want, they will tell you that what you have filmed is m... [More]

Had it been in America, I would think the guy would shoot the MIBs. Being as it happened in Wales, what could he have done? Thrown a Stonehenge lintel at them? Answered all their questions with words containing only Ls, Ns, Ws, and Ys. Woops! Wrong Wales! But he could still use words containing nothing but diphthongs!

They get special permission if they are searching, and they don't get close enough to do any damage.
