Jacques Valleé talks about the Interdimensional Hypothesis in this interesting documentary

Yesterday, I watched this really interesting (and rather creepy) documentary on YouTube. About 1 hour and 30 minutes in, there is some audio taken from a radio interview with Jacque Valleé. In it, he says something along the lines of, “So you make I a list of hypotheses, this is obviously not a natural phenomenon, and so the extraterrestrial explanation seemed to be the best one. We know there has to be life throughout the universe, so why shouldn’t it be able to come her? Considering that it is millions, if not thousands of years ahead of us. But as you get more and more data , you realize that that’s not what the witnesses are describing. What the witnesses are describing in many cases, are physical, material objects that change shape, size and colour, appear out of nowhere, disappear into nowhere, and become transparent on the spot. In my opinion, if it does that, then it can be from anywhere, anytime.”

Note: the above transcription has been paraphrased.

Now, that is simply the gist of his argument. If you read his best-selling book on the subject called, Messengers of Deception, Valleé analyzes data that he has collected on his personal ventures across the globe investigating some of the most astounding cases ever. These cases, for the most part, involve UFO religions.

Jacques Valleé is no stranger to UFO research. He’s been doing this for decades alongside J. Allen Hynek. His approach, unique and scientific, makes more sense than the approach taken by Ufologists. In the same video above, Valleé says, “there is no such thing as one best case in any field,” and then, “…[you have to] look for patterns and that’s how the phenomenon reveals itself to you.” Looking for patterns is what many so-called scientists aren’t doing. One such scientist is Neil deGrasse Tyson, who I am a huge fan of. He makes physics a hundred times more fun to learn.

While I do agree with what he says in the video above, the way Neil makes his point is arrogant. I agree that people who are sighting UFOs jump on the E.T. bandwagon too quickly, but he should have addressed the fact that there is an element of genuine mystery that surrounds the sightings. Some can be dismissed as natural phenomena, or top secret government craft, but it’s the remaining 5-10% of the sightings that baffles figures like Jacques Valleé, John Keel etc.

John Keel’s The Mothman Prophecies is a good read

For anyone in the business of investigating paranormal phenomena, John Keel’s The Mothman Prophecies is an instant classic. Having heard brilliant things about the book, and of course, watching the 2002 film of the same name starring Richard Gere, I picked it up.

Keel takes the reader upon roller coaster ride filled with intrigue as he investigates the UFO wave of the late 60s and early 70s, and the emergence of huge bird like creatures that were seen in Ohio, going as far as Washington. The most prominent of these winged beings was dubbed Mothman. With hypnotic red eyes, the Mothman terrorized Point Pleasant, West Virginia, late at night.

The Mothman Prophecies cites scientists like Jacques Valleé while making the case that the UFO phenomenon, as well as the infamous Mothman, are of an inter-dimensional origin. I agree with the hypothesis.

More on this as I continue to read the book.

If you guys have any other books, media of this kind, let me know. And feel free to share your experiences in the comments 🙂
