I don't see Bob as lying about any of this.
Perhaps open your eyes then and I suggest you listen to what he's said as well.
From his education, to the bad science and the stories of spaceships at Area 51. He's been proven to have lied about a number of things. And he's proven absolutely nothing about the existence of alien spaceships at S4. He's cashed in on licensing rights for model kits and movies, sold VHS videos and changed his story numerous times. Yet some people still shout about Bob not making money from or changing his story.
I have seen a flying saucer myself, up close and scary. IT moved like it had those kinds of abilities in physics not fully discerned by today's science. I personally know they exist. They have a propulsion method that is like what Bob describes.
You mean a propulsion system based on nonsense? Are you lying as well now?
We are talking about people who also reject the idea of soul and spirit being real.
Yes they have no time for spirits and our souls like yourself.

Are you saying you think Jacques Vallee and/or Bigelow are lying about Lazar's element 115? Lazar already brought his "element 115" to Bigelow's lab when he was hired by Bigelow, there's no need to dig anything up.

I agree, I dont mind the little inconsistencies, the problem here is there are at least 2 ways this story could have been verified(the supposed 22 scientist he knows the names of or the element Knapp refuses to dig up).
The idea of the government or intelligence community wanting to spread false information is plausible, in fact TTSA may very well be involved in such an operation with Tom DeLonge being the "useful idiot" who started an alleged UFO company without seeming to know much about UFOs (officially an entertainment company).

Video has been posted several times, but it explains the duping theory well. Start in around 2:28
No scientific evidence of anything really. This case on youtube was more impressive until we figured out what it was (some people figured it out back in 2012, but apparently almost none of the clueless people commenting on the video posted in 2020 know about that). We also figured out that much of what eyewitnesses say about UFOs is unreliable even when we have 30 witnesses telling the truth and describing what they saw to the best of their ability:
In terms of UFO flight
The www.abovetopsecret.com...]Westall case I think is the best one for demonstating some kind of unconventional propulsion does exist. It is just wild speculation to say by what means though, perhaps gravity based.

Bassplayer likes to drop hints when hes around... like Lazar, he seems to think he has it figured out. Maybe he can pop in with some ideas.
but nothing in particular leads me to have more confidence in the accuracy of Westall witness descriptions than the Yukon witness descriptions, so you're making some huge scientifically unfounded leaps if all you have to go on are what a witness thinks they saw
My point was that if Lazar was a pawn, I don't see how that fits with him claiming to have stolen 500 pounds of element 115, so how do you make those two fit together into a coherent story? Saying he saw documents can fit with him being a pawn, but not saying he stole 500 pounds of element 115.

bob would never be able to steal any high level isotope. period...
he was a pawn in someone's game of deception
When did Bob first mention that? I heard him say that on the Joe Rogan show, but I don't remember him saying that in the 1990 time frame so I was wondering if that's another part of his story that has changed. He also didn't talk about the live alien they had captive on the Rogan show, but back in 1990-ish he did, and the "live alien" and "archeological dig artifact" don't necessarily go together.
the one part of Bobs story that has stuck with me is that he was told one of the craft was found in an archeological dig. I am a subscribe to the theory that this isn't humans first time as a high tech civilization.
Those drawings are very unimpressive compared to this drawing of the 3-4 football fields long UFO the 30 Yukon witnesses had a close encounter with:
originally posted by: 111DPKING111
Well the drawing from the thread was done by a guy( Victor Zakry) who stood right in front of it as it lifted up, in broad daylight. The sighting in general is confirmed by several witnesses in close proximity. Start in at 3:20 for some other descriptions . Victor at the 10 mark.
That makes a lot more sense to me and is more consistent with facts than Bill Ckalker's "decades old memories aren't diminished" absurdity.
as we almost always see with urban legends, the more time passes, the larger the story grows. 44 years after the event, retellings have expanded significantly compared to what was documented at the time, and this should always give us cause to approach modern revisionings with skepticism. New evidence coming to light is one thing, but with the Westall event, all we see are new anecdotes. A few adults who were students at the time, and UFO proponents who have interviewed former students, are now reporting greatly expanded versions of what happened. Does that make them wrong? Of course not. But if we want to determine the most likely account of what really happened, we go to the original sources. We go to the original documentation of what the witnesses reported 44 years ago, and we take the contradictory revisionings with a large grain of salt.
The story certainly has no holes in it that can only be filled with extraterrestrial aliens, and indeed no credible reason to suggest anything unusual. "I don't know" does not mean "I do know, and it was a spaceship", so for now, the Westall '66 UFO remains one of many question marks in the books, just not a very bold or especially intriguing one.

OK, there was 500 pounds there and Lazar stole enough of that to blow up Las Vegas, according to Knapp...

If I were to gullibly believe it at all.... an amount of 5 micrograms (5 grams, and that’s a stretch) NOT 500 lbs would be believable to conceal, ONLY IF, exiting CAVITY CHECKS weren’t being done at the facility or at the Janis terminal.
500 lbs. ? Paaaalease.
I stand corrected, he said there was 500 pounds, but he didn't say exactly how much of that 500 pounds he stole which we hear about through George Knapp. The video in the OP is edited showing the first and past part of Knapp's statements below, but it cuts out what Knapp said in-between about Lazar possibly blowing up Las Vegas. This is the unedited video starting around the same subject as the OP video (time 1:09:10 in this video).

I don't think I've ever heard or read that Bob stole 500 pounds of Element 115.
From most sources you will find he claimed the " the U.S. Government had 500 pounds of Element-115 in their possession."
But this is how fine details get lost amongst the chatter.
Even if you don't believe what Brian Dunning speculates about the UFO, I do encourage you to consider his investigation advice to review the source materials. I can see how a "coverup" myth got started, but according to the 1966 audio, it was not covered up by the government, that part is the myth. The reality according to the science master is that it was the school headmaster who told the teachers and students to not talk about it. He said he would fire the teachers if they talked about it. But the "science master" teacher ignored that warning from the headmaster (he was upset with the headmaster) and he talked about it extensively. Nobody from the government tried to stop him and apparently he wasn't worried about losing his job because he had three degrees and could easily find another job, and he could probably win a wrongful termination lawsuit if the headmaster actually fired him.

you know they can sense isotope signatures from like 45,0000ft in the air right? how do you think we keep an eye on NoKor and Iran?
if he has ANYTHING it was 'given' to him and is would be something like irradiated bismuth(very low levels).
