Most UFO sightings aren't connected to meticulous mutilation. This one is. (*WARNING*)

today's story is about a disturbing discovery made in Brazil in the 1980s now at the time the Brazilian government attempted to hide the story saying it was just too sensitive for the public to know about it but eventually photos of this discovery were leaked and it sent Brazil into a panic now I'm not going to show you any of the actual leaked photographs because they're just too graphic but I will be describing them in some detail towards the end of this video so if you were to discretion is advised but before we get into that

Francisco was walking along the perimeter of a man-made lake in southern Brazil while poking the ground with his stick Francisco was doing one of his favorite after school activities which was looking for bugs and this Lake which was a part of the Billings Reservoir in the Brazilian state of Sal Pao was his favorite place to do that and the reservoir was gigantic but it was not shaped like a typical circular Lake instead it was more like a big river that kind of wound around and had all these skinny branches kind of jutting off the sides

of it and on this particular day Francisco was walking along one of those skinny offshoots of this Lake where at certain points if Francisco wanted to he could literally swim to the other side of the lake in a matter of of minutes now Francisco knew he was not really supposed to be anywhere near this Reservoir because in recent years gangs from the nearby cities would bring their murder victims out to this Reservoir and bury them here and so locals knew it was not a safe place and to stay clear but Francisco he didn't listen to

any of that because he loved walking around this Lake and looking for bugs and so he thought you know what no one's harmed me yet so what's the big deal and so as Francisco casually walked along poking at the mud looking for his bugs he finally saw one it was a huge water scorpion almost 2 in long and so immediately Francisco without taking his eyes off the bug drops his backpack grabs a clear container that he kept in the side pocket he opened it up he bent down and he scooped up this water scorpion and

capped it and then he brought the container up and looked inside to kind of admire his new pet and as he was staring at this container he noticed something odd on the other side of the lake he basically saw it through the plastic container and so he lowered the container to get a better look at this strange thing on the other side of the water and what he saw was this big group of vultures all kind of standing in a circle right on the water's edge and immediately Francisco was way more interested in these vultures

than in his bug because vultures meant there had to be a dead thing nearby because vultures are scavengers and so whatever they were circled around was probably a dead animal but Francisco he looked around and realized there was no way to get to the other side of the water to see whatever this dead thing was unless he swam and he knew if he went back home with soaking wet clothes his mom would know he had snuck to the reservoir and he'd be in lots of trouble and so feeling really frustrated Francisco just picked up a

rock and chucked it to the other side trying to splash the water near the vultures to get them to fly away so he could see the dead thing but the first rock he threw did not really have an effect the vultures just kind of turned around and looked at him and then went back to whatever was on the ground and so Francisco gathered a big pile of like 25 rocks and began throwing them one after the other at these vultures and finally Francisco had caused enough Chaos on the other side of the water that the

vultures got upset and they took to the air and they flew away and finally Francisco got a clear view of the Dead thing that was in the middle of the circle of vultures now initially Francisco thought this dead thing was going to be maybe a bird or some other small animal from the area but when he got a good look at this dead thing from 30 ft away it didn't look like either of those things it didn't have fur it didn't have feathers it actually looked kind of pale almost like a pig but Francisco is

thinking to himself why would a pig be all the way out here and then it slowly dawned on Francisco that what he was looking at was actually a dead person suddenly terrified Francisco scooped up his things turned around and ran to the nearest Village where he began screaming for help within a few hours the area along the the water where the vultures had been and where this body was was swarming with police and also with curious villagers normally when a body was discovered in or near this Reservoir which unfortunately happened quite a bit because of

all the recent gang violence police would often break ranks from the investigation and walk over to the local onlookers and kind of fill them in and tell them you know who this person was and what they think happened but this time it was totally different the police were totally secretive and it was really obvious the police immediately roped off the entire area with crime scene tape and then the police officers stood in a circle shoulder-to-shoulder blocking the view of the villagers so they couldn't see the body and then when villagers actually walked up to police

and said hey can you tell us what's going on the police would say they couldn't talk about it and then they would tell the villagers to back up and stay away locals would stick around for a while being treated this way the entire time by police and then finally when the Sun started to go down and it was clear the police were very committed to hiding what was going on whoever was still there finally just left figuring when they got home they could just turn on the news and see what had happened with this dead

person but when they got home and turned on their TV there was not one news story about this body and at a minimum this story should have dominated local news but it somehow was not being talked about and then even stranger was the next morning when locals got up they headed back to the res to see what the police were up to and when they got there they found the police were gone the body was gone and there was absolutely no Trace that anyone or anything had ever been there it was like it had been

totally sanitized for days locals in this area continued to check the TV news they checked the radio the newspapers for some story some bit of information about this dead body that was found but again there was just absolutely nothing and it just made no sense why wasn't anyone talking about this this and So eventually in the absence of any official information about what happened a rumor began to circulate among locals that the body belonged to a local fisherman who had gone missing 3 days before Francisco discovered him and this fisherman apparently he was an alcoholic

and he had gone to the reservoir and he had begun drinking and apparently he drank so much that it killed him now many people wondered you know if this drunk fisherman story was the real story then why were the police so secretive about the body and why weren't they willing to give up any information to the crowd about what had happened to this guy I mean a drunk fisherman is not a super sensitive thing it just seemed like that doesn't line up with the police's Behavior but questions like these remained unanswered and after several weeks

of still no new information no news coverage anywhere even the most skeptical of villagers who really thought there's something weird going on here they just kind of forgot about it and moved on until 6 years later in 1994 when someone we don't know who from the Brazilian government decided they just couldn't keep the secret any longer and so they gathered up some photos and an autopsy report they were not supposed to have and they smuggled those things to the media and once the media published these things it became immediately clear that the dead man who

was found in the reservoir in 1988 was not a drunk fisherman who drank himself to death nor was he the victim of gang violence instead it appeared that this person's death could potentially be [Music] paranormal if you're a fan of the strange dark and mysterious delivered in story format then you got to listen to the brand new Ballin Studios podcast called bedtime stories for the uninitiated Bedtime Stories has been a long-standing incredible YouTube channel that puts out just some of the best dark scary storytelling on the internet and now they're making this brand new podcast

situated far to the west of the state Remains the setting for some of the most bizarre of these disappearances time [Music] but before we dive into the significance of those leaked photos and the leaked autopsy report you need to understand a weird aspect of Brazil's history Brazil has an absolutely astounding number of sightings of unidentified flying objects or UFOs for short and these are not your typical UFO stories where some person claims they saw aliens or they were abducted by aliens but they have no Witnesses they have no proof they have nothing but their own

story no in Brazil the bulk of their UFO sightings are reported by their military because Brazil actually has a government program to monitor UFO sightings because it happen so much in their country in fact the Brazilian government was directly involved in one of the most famous UFO sightings of all time it was called The Night of the UFO this famous sighting or sightings because it actually happened in four different Brazilian States simultaneously happened on May 19th 1986 which was 2 years before Francisco spotted the dead body in the reservoir on that 1986 day at around

8:15 p.m. an air traffic controller at an international airport in sou Paulo noticed three red lights hovering over the airport and so the controller called it in and asked you know what are these things but nobody knew and at the exact same time all across Brazil dozens and dozens of other people who have no idea what's happening at this International Airport began reporting that they too were seeing strange lights in the sky and many of these reports of these lights were coming from military personnel and government officials and so this was like a really big

deal that like all across Brazil everybody's seeing lights in the sky and so the government in response to this scrambled their fighter jets and sent the Jets up to try to intercept one of these sets of Lights just to see who or what they were and potentially shoot them down if they had to but when these Jets got anywhere close to these unidentified flying objects these lights in the sky these UFOs would move away like instantly one UFO was observed suddenly disappearing and then reappearing 20 M away in just 5 Seconds which meant that UFO

had to travel at least at least five times the speed of sound to cover that distance in such a short amount of time for reference humans are not capable of going that fast we cannot do that eventually the night of the UFOs ended when all these UFOs these lights in the sky just kind of suddenly vanished and then a couple of days later the Brazilian government held this big press conference about the event and they would say we have no idea what those lights were or where they came from we have no clue however whoever

or whatever was controlling these UFOs showed obvious signs of intelligence now as mindblowing as that would be to hear that to hear that potentially intelligent creatures are flying around your airspace remember this is Brazil where UFO sightings were kind of the norm and so people were definitely shocked by this this was a terrifying thing but they just kind of accepted what they were told and assumed you know the government will handle this and people moved on with their lives that is until several years later in 1994 when those photos and the autopsy report of the

dead person in the reservoir were leaked and then suddenly the people of Brazil they're seeing this stuff and they're realizing wait a minute the night of the UFOs may not have been an isolated instance those UFOs may never have left here is what the public learned from the leaked photos and the leaked autopsy report back in 1988 when little Francisco spotted the dead body from the other side of the water he correctly identified that it was a man's body but Francisco had been wrong when he told authorities that it didn't look like this guy had

any visible injuries on him and the guy was naked and so Francisco felt pretty confident that he would have seen something if the guy was wounded but when the police arrived and they saw the body up close they immediately saw he had several very serious and very strange physical injuries he had these four perfect circular 1 to 1 and 1/2 in diameter holes drilled into his body there were two right above his chest basically sitting above his armpit there was one that was right over his belly button so his belly button was gone it was

just a hole where it had been and there was also one in his crotch and these holes were not crudely done these were done with surgical Precision almost like whoever had done it was using high-end medical tools to make these Cuts now at first glance the authorities had no idea why these holes were on this guy's body but when the autopsy was done they discovered this man was missing the majority of his internal organs and after doing some investigating they discovered that all of his organs had literally been vacuumed out of him through these holes

on his body those holes were basically just ports to pull things out of him also most of the man's blood had been suctioned out of those holes as well but that wasn't all the man also had one of his ears removed one of his eyes was removed and the lower part of his face was also removed and again all of these Cuts looked like they had been made with absolute surgical Precision but perhaps the most brutal aspect of all the things that came to light when these documents were leaked was something that unless you looked

really closely at the autopsy report you wouldn't necessarily notice and it had to do with this man's Vegas nerve your Vegas nerve is something that controls part of your nervous system that's responsible for automatic functions like heart rate and digestion and so when your body is suddenly in great distress like suddenly you're fighting for your life or something your vagus nerve can basically shut off those automatic functions like digestion in order to ensure all your energy is going towards fighting for your life but in this dead man's case his autopsy revealed that his Vagas nerve

had gone absolutely wild right at the moment of his death it's complicated but this suggests that this man was very likely alive when his face was being surgically cut off and those holes were being drilled into his body and his organs were being vacuumed out and then at some point the excruciating pain that came from these horrible things happening to him got so so bad his Vegas nerve basically turned off his heart so it was not these horrible physical injuries that killed him he literally died from the pain of these physical injuries in short his

body basically killed itself to avoid feeling the pain it was feeling so I'm sure you're wondering how does the dead man in the reservoir and these leaked photos and the autopsy report how does all of that connect with the night of the UFOs which happened 2 years before the man in the reservoir was even found well following the night of the UFOs in 1986 farmer in Brazil who lived in the areas where these famous sightings took place began reporting that their cattle were dying kind of inexplicably and this began happening with enough frequency in all

of these areas where the UFO sightings had taken place that a theory began to develop in Brazil that maybe the UFOs that were here during the night of the UFOs have something to do with all these cows turning up dead and as that theory began to take hold all across Brazil that you know UFOs are killing our cattle another theory began to come out of that one which was well if the UFOs are coming in here and killing cattle what's stopping them from killing people and then in 1988 so 2 years after the night of

the UFOs and right in the middle of all these Farmers all across Brazil saying their cows were dying for no reason the dead man in the reservoir was discovered and as soon as the government saw the physical condition this guy was in with the weird holes drilled in his body and his organs missing and his face pulled off that plus the fact that he was located in this Reservoir which by the way was in a night of the UFO sighting area the government decided they would have to hide the story a critical detail that I

have left out intentionally until right now is that the cattle who were turning up dead they were turning up dead with circular holes drilled into their bodies with organs missing and parts of their faces removed meaning clearly whatever was happening to these cattle inside of these sighting areas had happened to this man in the reservoir and if that got out to the public then it would confirm for many people in Brazil that yep the UFOs they're the ones going after the cattle and now they're going after us too and so this was why the police

were so secretive about the body and not letting anybody see it or learn anything about it and it was also why no news was run anywhere in Brazil about the story it's because the government was really trying to make sure it did not get out and the government was able to keep it quiet until 1994 when those photos and the autopsy report were leaked but like all things having to do with UFOs or aliens or paranormal stuff it's like despite the evidence those things very quickly are pushed into the kind of conspiracy theory bucket and

they stay there people do not want to touch that category so even though Brazil remains an absolute hotbed for UFO sightings Wikipedia even has a page dedicated just to tracking Brazilian UFO sightings despite all that no one really cares but if you care there is an unbelievable amount of information online about what's going on in Brazil and if nothing else it is just a fascinating Rabbit Hole to fall into so that's going to do it if you enjoyed today's story be sure to check out our podcast called the Mr Ballin podcast where we have literally
