When the movie Predator released in 1987, audiences were captivated as they watched an unseen, extraterrestrial interloper stalk and kill a highly trained team of US special forces. Little did we know that during the Vietnam War, the militaries on both sides had been attacked by something just as frightening and just as bizarre: a true to life enemy unknown.

My father (God rest his soul), was a Ranger and cartographer in Vietnam. A recon specialist. He used to share stories of seeing lights while moving thru the jungle at night. This caught my attention, because he had heard of this story. He said, back then, that the story was never verified. Suddenly this video gave me a shiver. Thanks.

HenryTheGreat I hear you. Look up the true story behind "the Hills Have Eyes". It's loosely based on the Bean clan from Scotland. They kidnapped, tortured, killed and ate unsuspecting tavelers.

"The Jungle Moved"

[@scottcantdance804]

Not sure where you guys are from, North America, Europe, or elsewhere. But, he mentioned in another video something that has been mentioned in the Missing 411 series before, and the comment that "the jungle moved" reminded me of it. I'm in North America, and have always loved the woods. They were my favorite place to play as a kid, and while I'm in my thirties now, I still go off for adventures in the woods. Like I said, I've heard this mentioned in the missing 411 series and in one of this channels videos, but I've only met one or two other people who have ever experienced this. I'm not sure what it is, but it's some type of phenomenon where the woods go silent all around you. It's not the typical kind of hush that will come over birds when a raptor is nearby, or how small woodland creatures will suddenly disappear if a bobcat or something is stalking nearby. Everything goes quiet, and I mean everything. From the birds, to the insects, to frogs and furry creatures, to any wind. It all just stops. When this has happened, I've felt an overwhelming feeling of fear and the need to urinate, with an ambiguous feeling that something is hovering right nearby. Each time, I've just kept my eyes on the ground, or at the base of a tree trunk near me, and I huddle down where I am, mind pretty much blank under this feeling, until it passes and the sound picks back up again. That's what I did the first time I heard it as a kid, and I guess that reaction was ingrained in my mind, because I did it when I was older. Hasn't happened to me in several years, but I know if it happened again, I doubt I would be capable of reacting any other way. And I don't know if this fear reaction is in response to the sound suddenly stopping, or if the reason that the sound stopped is also the reason that I have this fear reaction. But every time I've heard someone talk about it, or every time I've read someone's comment on it, and a few times in my life where I've spoken to someone else who has experienced it, we all know exactly what the other person is referring to, and exactly what it feels like, and how they are going to describe it. I don't know if this happens over in Europe or on other continents, or if it's some weird phenomena that's somehow exclusive to Native American forests. I don't even know if I think it's something supernatural. It could be something as simple as a weatherfront causing a rapid shift in air pressure or something, that all of the critters in the forest react to the same way. Anyway... Thanks to whoever reads that lol

@@SilenTHerO78614 It's a credible case that's hard to find, I remember hearing a lot of information on it while talking to some *I forget the branch* of people discussing it at Fort Dix Mcguire Joint AFB. So the story definitely has credibility to it. I would suggest research the names of people mentioned as well as locations, or file an FOIA on B52 bomber crash locations/names.

[@SilenTHerO78614]

@@AbyssalSoda You make a very good point. Problem is Bedtime Stories gives no specific info that could help track down the case other than the name of William English which might be a pseudonym, and worst case scenario the specific crash might be either still classified or heavily redacted. Update: I just checked Wikipedia. It says 31 B52's went down during the war of which 17 were in combat and lists the first two as due to a crash and the last one with the crew being rescued in the Gulf of Tonkin in 1973. So that leaves 14 (known) cases which can be investigated

[@mullaner5933]

This would be a great movie idea. The main character is the commander that gets discharged. The movie shows the naval incidents and the ufo fire fights. As well the fight between the u.s and Viet cong. Almost having the war as the main focus for the first half with some encounters with the ufo. Then the last half focus mainly on the ufo with the burnt village and suspicious plane incident. The commander explains all this, gets discharged the threat is made on his life. However just show the blue light the whole movie never fully show that it is a ufo. This way you can play the card is this commander just crazy (from all the horrific things he has seen) or is this actually true. The ending should be he sees the light one more time when hes back home but you never know forsure if its real or not. Idk i was thinking this the whole time watching this. It could be one of those sci fi war movies like overlord. Just show this video to an executive and give it a big budget with a good director and screenplay.

I hadn't heard the B-52 story before. The story that I heard, 25 years ago, was that a Special Forces team went into Cambodia on a snatch mission, to bring back an NVA prisoner. En route to the target, they heard AK fire that went on for a time, then stopped. When the SF team got to where they thought the firing had been, they found the crew of a grounded UFO pitching the dismembered remains of some VC Regulars into some sort of bins. The SF team decided that discretion was the better part of valor, and waited until the saucer took off; they then scooped some leftover bits of paper, and high-tailed it out.

Funny... when I first saw the drawing of this video I said "No way a '52 can lay on the jungle like that, they screwed the drawing" Later I found out why... I'm an ex B-52 mechanic (The G model) I can assure you that even if the airplane stalled and came down vertically it would have been destroyed, a B-52 laying on it's belly offers no easy entrance, the hatch is on the bottom and if nobody blew a top hatch you can't get in. The only possible discrepancy is that coded documents are carried in a safe, one has to have the code of the safe to access them, they could have been extracted prior to the bombing but... What was the tail number? To wich squadron it belonged? What it was doing there alone in the night?

The prevailing theory at the agency is that these unfortunate men, and their planes, were the victim of an abduction by UFO's.

You know I always had a fascination with ghosts and cryptids and it goes back to when I was watching ghosts adventures on the TV thinking it’s not scary. I was mistaken, but even before that I had a fascination with the military how weapon systems worked, the type of rounds they used tracer, AP, Full Metal Jacket, And the tanks and aircraft they had. You satisfied both of my interests at once.

My father was part of the team that created the "Predator" VFX in '87...I'll ask him if any of them were aware of this story- even if not, I know he'll love learning about it now! Fantastic video as always, really loved the cloud effects with the plane painting @11:30.

[@vladyMarcusLL]

@jonathan ramirez dunno if it's true, the khandahar giant was a 15 foot red haired giant, stories says that u.s marine patroling in that area were lost no one heard from them, HQ radioed them for their location but no one is answering, afraid that they were ambushed or taken prisoners, us special forces was dispatched, they were then brought into the last position were the us patrols radioed last location, after surveying the area they saw equipment, empty shells, lumps of flesh scattered around following the debris of the fallen, the SF stumble upon a cave with a horrible rotting smell, entering into the abyss and lo with grunt of a thousand voice they saw a 15 foot with a heavily red bearded giant, without any hesitation they fire at will whatever ammo they got...

Romelo Hernandez i thought kinda the same. But more like because of their funds. And have top notch engineers. They could develop highly advanced technology. Which i think that happened in around 2nd world war. And other wars. So they could have produced high quality technologies.

Awesome video! I hadn't heard of any of these encounters at all, so nice to hear new stuff. It also backs up a theory of mine that these UFOs are not of alien origin, but of terrestrial origin while simultaneously not being from any known nation on Earth.

[@joeregan2734]

Bedtime Stories with an ACTION scene? Oh hell yeah

[@ronlawrence342]

Yeah heard of giants being seen in Nam and of a flying harpy like creature witnessed. As far as those slick flying Vietnamese Migs go after the iron curtain came down declassified KGB files verified what American pilots had been saying for years, that Russian pilots where flying them and shooting our guys down. Which makes since as most Vietnamese in the 60’s and 70’s had never driven a car much less had time to learn how to be flying aces of Russian manufactured jets.

The British unit that "disappeared " @ Galipoli was eventually found some years later with the assistance of Turkish officers who were there at the time. They apparently , in the fog of war, ran ahead of their own lines and ended up behind Ottoman army lines being surrounded and in short order became hors de combat.

You got the HOBART INCIDENT all backwards The story goes that PCF19 was attacked by something that they were not able to describe They fired their guns at the objects and it had no effect say the fact that what they were shot with was apparently there own bullets When PCF12 Got to a point where they could assist they saw the blue orbs and then the PCF19 exploded they picked up according to the story ONE survivor and got the hell outta there As son as they got going the blue orbs was back and they started shutting at them Whit no apparent effect The boat was peppered with gun fire that seemed to be there own At that moment 2 F4s shows up and starts to engage the orbs The F4S fires 2 missiles at the orbs and they take of in to Laos Later that night the Hobart is on patrol of the coast and logs a sighting of the blue orbs But they don't engage whit the orbs Later that day in the morning Hobart was steaming along the coast and from out of nowhere they're hit by 2 missiles Killing 3 injuring several more In the subsequent investigation it's found that the missiles that hits the Hobart is US maid and not only that they are the missiles that the 2 F4s was carrying and fired at the orbs So a truly strange thing happened that day Qnd just as a side note the special forces dude that found the B52 Could not possibly have gotten an answer from J A Hynek about the Russian plain just a few years after the war That story didn't come out until after the wall came down in 1990 And Hynek died in 1986 just a thought 😕 Besides the it's a fun channel to watch but they are a bit off on the facts sometimes Just saying 🇧🇻

This was a good episode. Sadly, because Vietnam war wasn’t popular several US veterans were scrutinised when they returned for their role. Regardless of how shell shocked they were. Vietnam war protesters didn’t care. The stress of combat coupled with the things they saw in Vietnam coupled with scrutiny and personal issues ultimately caused a lot of veterans to end their lives. The war in Nam is forever controversial.

Awesome Vid similar to dyatlov pass or missing 411 but militarized very creepy indeed. I wonder if it's some sort of infrasonic concussive weapon.

[@EphemeralProductions]

How could an infrasonic weapon appear as an light energy beam and create fire and explosions?

[@wrathsin13]

@@EphemeralProductions There is this effect called piezoelectric.where certain crystals will create both light and electricity when a sufficient amount of mechanical force is applied and that includes sound vibrations. I am no scientist though so this would be my best guess maybe there was a large vein of quartz under the mountain as well.

[@EphemeralProductions]

wrathsin13: you're missing what I'm saying though. In the account, they said that the things they saw flying over that enemy camp shot bright beams of energy down to the camp. I've never heard of piezoelectricity doing anything like that, have you??

[@wrathsin13]

@@EphemeralProductions Oh, I am sorry I thought this was in reference to the dyatlov pass incident. too be honest. I don't have a very good explanation for this story.
