I love how he points out that police are not qualified to look at the sky, but he's somehow a qualified to explain that cars can just stop at odd times unexplained. Who is he? Mr. Goodwrench? Did anyone else see the irony of that statement?

everyone calling in, from mass panic to casually describing something surreal..

atleast 15 officers persuing the object, one being directly under it.

the 911 operator calling in the FAA and them saying there is absolutely nothing on the radar scope.

all of the witnesses, from pedestrians to police officers exclaiming it was glowing green to red to whatever..

this is indeed one of the most interesting segments in a documentary i've seen.

definitely should be watched, flagged.

What I am finding unusual is that all of these people were witness to this event and no one has any digital images/photos/video of it? (No one had a cell phone cam, digital cam, or police video cam?)

A lot of people saw it, and observed it for a long time, yet not one image.

Very interesting story with credible witnesses to boot.

The only thing that bugs the heck out of me is that there were so many civilian witnesses coupled with at least FIFTEEN police officer witnesses and not ONE person snapped a photo, or grabbed a video camera.

The producer of the segment probably wanted a contrasting opinion on what the sightings were for the sake of being balanced and could only find this one kook to throw the old "its stars in the sky" theory out there. What an embarrassment.

Agreed. Today everyone has a cam on their cell phone, or a digital cam, video cams. Not one image is presented.

i grew up about 5 miles south of Youngstown, which was mentioned a few times in these videos. i would have been about 13 at the time of these sightings. i actually have had an "experience" that i now wonder if it coincided with that incident.

i woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. our house was pretty small and the only bathroom was upstairs. the whole 2nd floor was my parents' bedroom so i had to go through it to get to the bathroom. when i got to the top of the stairs, i saw something standing in the opposite corner next to my mom's side of the bed. i tried not to stare at it, i just proceeded to the bathroom and immediately shut the door and turned on the light. i didn't know what to think. i waited a few minutes and prayed that it had gone away. i opened the door enough to let let shine where i had seen this thing and there was nothing there.

i had wondered if it was maybe the lamp shade on the night stand but what i saw was significantly taller than that. it also seemed to glow white very faintly - or it was very good at reflecting what little ambient light was in the room.

i tend to believe that what i saw was an alien, but i have also considered the possibility that it was something more along the lines of a ghost. i had put my hand through an apparition that was sitting in the exact same spot just a couple of years before that.

i don't want to get off topic - i just wanted to add my experiences as a person living VERY close to that area. i also don't want to bore everyone by rambling for pages, but i have no problem at all chatting about my experiences if anyone was interested.

This event happened in 1994. Cell Phones back then were the size of bricks, digital cameras did not exist, and video were giant machines that had on your shoulder that weighed 10 pounds.

Anyways, I remember buying these trumbull county audio tapes on cd about 6-7 years ago. Very compelling stuff. You could tell that it was a very serious situation, as you could feel how tense/freaked out some of the officers were. What was fascinating was that they were chasing this craft, it was a fairly exciting exchange that happened between the officers and the 911 dispatch.
