The UFO Incident That Shocked Ariel School: Telepathic Extraterrestrials
September 14th, 1994 was a quiet night in Zimbabwe. Then suddenly, boom! An explosion startled people all over the country. Windows rattled. Doors shook.
Shocked and confused, people sheepishly stepped outside to see what happened. Everything looked fine. They went back inside.
But one woman wasn't satisfied. Cynthia Hind drove around the capital city of Harare, searching for the source of the sound but, nothing seemed unusual.
But back at home, Cynthia's phone rang relentlessly. She was a UFO investigator and witness reports were coming in one after another. The news claimed the sound was a sonic boom caused by a meteor shower. But Cynthia wasn't so sure.
Eyewitnesses near Lake Kariba described bizarre lights in the sky earlier that week. Lights in a row that moved erratically: fast then slow. First north to south. Then east to southwest. Meteors don't do that.
Cynthia suspected there was much more to the story. And two days later, she'd find out that she was right.

I'd like to see an episode about all the inventors, scientists, doctors and journalists who have all died under mysterious circumstances after coming forward about aliens, water powered cars, ZERO point energy and more. Some could be coincidences, but out then all together and it becomes WAY TOO MUCH to be just pure coincidence.

It's easy for people to randomly knee-jerk say "lol just kids, they lied for fun". I've worked at a kindergarten for 6 years. I know kids. I know when they TRY to lie (because they're terrible at it), when they joke, when they're sarcastic or when they're dead serious. These kids being interviewed by John Mack at Ariel were 100% serious. They didnt make it up, nor did they imagine it. People say "kids imagine things". No they dont. They PLAY, and PRETEND during play, but they dont literally see something that isnt there. Think about it in terms of yourself. What did YOU see as a kid that wasnt real? Did you see pink elephants flying in the sky? Did you see dinosaurs walking in your garden? If you did, you need professional help, because its a trope, it isnt normal.

[@invisible.fatman]

Kids misinterpret things constantly.

[@angeldsf3575]

Yeah Most Kids are Terrible Liars. Even if They Get Things Wrong it's Not Because They WANT to Be Untruthful it's Because That's How They Genuinely Saw/Interpeted Things. Most Adults are Like This Too, It's Nothing New

[@davidtunstall6454]

I had a similar experience in Brisbane, Australia early 90s. We had finished school and went for football practice and at one point a kid pointed up at the sky and asked, 'What's that?'. Up in the sky was a small craft resembling a hot water cylinder but silver in colour and had smooth edges. It was levitating silently above us around 50-100 metres in the air. It had no windows, just a white light at the bottom of the craft and could move left, right, up and down without any noise or obvious method of propulsion (if it was man made). It hovered above us for a minute or two and then drifted off beyond our field of view past a tree line. We ran to chase it past the trees into the next field, but there was no object there, not even in the sky. This event was witnessed by 100s of school kids and parents, 3 day later the craft was seen again in the Brisbane sky and made the local news, but we never heard anything after that.

AJ you are getting incredible at telling these stories. I remember when you felt you couldn't compare yourself to other great storytellers but you are up there with the best of them now! I'm so glad your channel truly was able to grow with a podcast the after files in a crew to help you develop these stories the way you need them to be structured. Recently I just love the way you take real situations are able to tell them in a compelling story that almost feels like conspiracy yet it is true history and true science that is actually happening. Thanks for bringing us all this great talent for an incredible channel!

[@user-jq2br7pe3d]

Agreed

[@Vademan]

This being a re-editted video, it might be old, but I really miss the epilog to this incredible story. A couple of years ago, these children where interviewed once more, and they all stick to their story completely. Some were traumatized by the events, some tried to bury it and never spoke of it again, but no one forgot and you can clearly tell they truly believe what they saw. It's very compelling. The principal,, who dismissed the story back than and did not want to believe the children, even apologizes, because she got convinced she made a big mistake not taking it serious and she felt bad all these years. Look for it, It makes it all even more interesting.

[@f0x845]

Just watched this last week. It's pretty strong evidence that something did happen imo

[@Vlad_Portnov]

To those asking, yes, we did see this video already but for some reason it was taken down. I was trying to rewatch it two days ago but couldn’t find it, so I went to the after files version of this video and a bunch of people were asking what happened to the original and here it is up and running again. Clearly the men in black got to AJ, but he threatened them instead and put the video back 😂. Thanks for checking comments on old videos AJ!

[@Vlad_Portnov]

Also, since this episode was released originally, Netflix released a show called Encounters, where these kids recount what happened, but as adults now. They retell the exact same things, all except one person, who seems very apprehensive, saying he made all this up as a lie and it was just a rock. Very strange fella. Worth checking out.

[@MikeTheGreek]

So they basically emailed him or phoned him, telling him "Look AJ you need to delete this video". And AJ was like: ok. Cause he knows if he doesn't do what they say you'll never see him again. OR. It's KZbin that removed the video for whatever reason...but most of us know why. Lastly videos with conspiracies aren't removed as much as in the past...now things are loosen up bit by bit.

I honestly can't believe that I actually remember when this happened. Because of it, my friends and I spent our entire 4th grade school year hunting aliens on recess and looking for UFOs even though our little hometown in Oklahoma was obviously nowhere near where that incident took place -- that part didn't matter at all to us. We'd even come back to school on Mondays and swear to one another that we'd seen possible "spaceships" in the skies over the weekend and then we'd write up reports and "investigate" our supposed occurrences during the week. What we wanted most, though, was for an alien craft to land at the edge of OUR playground during OUR recess break but, unfortunately, it never happened. I haven't given any of that a single bit of thought in decades, probably not since clear back in the nineties, and had totally forgotten about it until tonight while watching this video. To be honest, that entire group of oddball alien-hunting kids I spent so much time with were completely gone from my mind -- or so I thought. Thanks for the memories!

[@TheNexusChan]

When I was younger, me and my brother were outside playing H.O.R.S.E. Right above our basketball goal was a circular craft, hovering, and had lights that were similar to Christmas. I know, it sounds very cliche, but thats what I remember. Ive brought it up to him before whenever we we're older, and while he was hanging out with friends. He denied it. I cant remember if he came to ne later and admitted seeing it as well. Now that I'm older I feel like it was all a dream. The feeling where you are struggling to remember anything you've done or saw as a child. It feels like I imagined it, but in the same hand it feels so real. Almost to the point where I know it was real, but then my mind struggles like I mentioned above.

The Ariel incident was 100% legit...I know cos I was there. I was in standard 4, now known as grade 6. We were hiding behind the office learning to smoke when we noticed everyone running towards something. We got there and WTF!! The they were. Looking back now, the reason the colour and shape are reported inconsistently is because it was like some sort of pearlescent colour that shifted way more than any pearlescent colour we have here on earth.

If you're not just messing with the WF community could you elaborate on what you saw and experienced? More details on the figures and ship would be nice.

[@shadmoney6617]

@@abbuavy I tell you what. I will give you my story before he gives you his. My encounter was at school this very same year. The bell had just rang and all of the children were running towards the class blocks to line up to go back in after recess. Me and maybe a few other children remained on the lower end of the playground on the blacktop. As the bell rang I took notice of a craft slowly traveling out of the field bordering the blacktop area. It was no more than 4 feet above the ground slowly traveling towards our path. It came to where me and a few other children were lingering and silently hovered above us. It locked itself in the air about two feet above us perfectly still and observed us. There was a stick behind me that I picked up and tried to swat it. It simply dodged me and went up a little higher and continued to hover. It was completely unphased by my attempt. About maybe 30 seconds later it slowly ascended straight up and just disappeared. I believe it cloaked itself but maybe it jumped dimensions. It was just there and then it wasn't. The craft was a small one. About 12-14 inches in diameter. A matte black color and was saucer shaped. You couldn't see into it but it could definitely see us because when it came to where we were it made sure that all of us who were gathered in that spot were in front of it before it froze into the air. The only depiction of what I seen was on an episode of Unsolved Mysteries that I seen for the first time in college. It covered a lady named Lynne Plaskett. They depicted the craft I seen at 7 to the letter. The craziest part about this story is that I just discovered within the last 8 years through my father that I had an encounter 4 years prior to the one at school while just he and I were at the playground in our apartment complex. My entire life he hadn't spoken about it until I told my mother about my schoolyard encounter and she related my story to him. If you go on Preston Dennets KZbin channel you will find out that schoolyard sightings are more common than we know and they tend to come very close to children. Who knew? My encounter was at Scotwood Elementary in Columbus Ohio in 1994. I didn't know what a UFO was and until recently I didn't know other children have had the same experiences. I hope this gives insight to you or anyone else wondering.

[@shadmoney6617]

@@abbuavy The encounter with my father he told me that it hovered over just as close as the instance at school. He said it was also a smaller craft but it was silver. He said it phased in and out of view. It appeared directly over me and would phase out into a different spot but seemed to be more so fixated on me.

​@@-redacted_by_youtubehow do you know the person WAS drunk? Seems to me it's more appropriate to assume the person wasn't drunk than was drunk. But both of us are just assuming here. We don't know either way as the person wasn't identified, caught, and tested.

Thank you AJ, Hecklefish and the WF team. Really enjoyed the refreshed commentary on these three incidents and it was helpful to consider them side-by-side to compare and contrast. Enjoyed the outro too, they're fun to sing along to. Enjoy your weekend of celebrations. ❤ from Yorkshire.

[@healgrowlovecommunity8397]

Brilliant as always and I didn't even realize that it is a reupload. Heartbreaking to see Hecklefish's emotion over Gertie's treatment at the airport. I thought it was going to be an ad for Better help. Happy Thanksgiving to all!

[@KeyJamesM]

I would love to see a video about Nahanni Valley. I’ve seen videos about it but you do such an amazing job telling these stories and getting to the bottom of them as best as one can.

This is genius!.. I never ever watched sponsored ads in any youtube videos.. I always fast forward to the end of the ads.. but AJ puts a lot of effort in making the ads interesting and funny. I still can't believe how underrated this channel is. A lot of youtubers should learn how to do this properly :)

[@deborahjanes3706]

When I was in my teens (late 80's) there was a story on the TV news about a ufo crash just outside a school a few hours north Cape Town (South Africa). A military officer was interviewed who said that the cia has an agreement with every country, that if there is a crash the local military must secure the site and wait for the agency to arrive and recover the site contents. He mentioned how it wasn't long after the military arrived that the agency were also there in large black trucks.

[@rapture724]

Thank God I’m not the only one who felt (and realized) this was done before. I don’t mind a re-upload from time to time as long as it’s labeled “Re-Uploaded” or “Re-Mastered”. Well anyway, Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

My first sense was that it was a sponsorship change. They had a fallout with their previous spo sor of the video. And instead of having the ad continue to benefit the OLD sponsor. They re-uploaded the video with the new sponsor lol

I believe that the differences in the story between all the kids is because they were in the presence of something so incredibly foreign to their brains that the brains of the different kids perceived different things.

[@StevieSeagal]

That, and it's also possible that the beings projected into each individual's mind a slightly different version/look of things. So each individual perceived the event and the ship and the beings slightly differently.
