Livingston
On the 9th November 1979, Bob Taylor, a forestry worker had just started his usual
inspection of the local forest just outside the town of Livingston near Edinburgh, Scotland,
when he encountered the strangest object that he had ever seen.
It shape was similar to that of the planet Saturn, essentially round with a flat
rim across the middle. It was about the same size as an average family car and Bob
could make out some windows on the object.
Unlike most UFO encounters in which the observer normally feels very at ease with the
strange objects that they witness, Bob felt that this object had a evil aura. As
Bob gazed at the object in shear amazement he noticed that 2 objects suddenly came
out of the object, and he described them as looking like sea mines (large round balls with
spikes on them).
The two objects positioned themselves either side of Bob. He then noticed a strange smell
and he started to experience a sickening feeling, a burning in his throat, and
a sensation of being grabbed by the side of the legs and tugged forward.
The next thing Bob remembered was waking up on the floor with his head pounding,
sore throat and a strange bitter taste in his mouth. He later calculated that he
had been unconscious for at least 20 minutes.
Later after his wife had taken him to hospital, the police cordoned off the
alleged landing site and found evidence to back up Bob's story. On the ground
there was a series of flattened marks and indented holes. The police treated the
case as a assault case and is the only case to date in British history of a UFO
encounter being the subject of a criminal investigation.
Bob made no money from this encounter. He retired and moved away shortly after
to avoid the unwelcome publicity.
