Do you think it more likely that it is a human Andean mummy? Possibly from that Chachapoya coca leaf trading race that the Incas assimilated / conquered?

Indeed, it does look like one of those 500+ year old mummies that turns up in the Andes. Of course people are going to say instantly "but OMG that's a greys big head!", but mummies can look quite odd and distorted sometimes (especially without the hair).

I agree that there seems to be a lot of unanswered questions, but the footage itself is very interesting and the look of the mummy is very unusual but nothing as of yet is conclusive.

It is very interesting though.

MMnnnnn... don't know what to make of this yet.

It does sound familiar to there famous stories already!

To me it looks like a papier maché on wire. The chest and the face seem too featureless. Mummies tend to dessicate and show the bones through skin. here that does not seem to happen. The Eyes sockets are too shallow with the optical nerve canal not being present as far as I could make out. Therefore, I say it is fake.

Oh, i'm GLAD that someone bumped this thread: so: are there some new evidences or can we BURY it once again as it deserves?

Not to contradict your opinion but we certainly do not know how an alien body is supposed to desiccate. An alien body, physiology doesn't have to behave as a human.

Still, don't know what to make of this!

Other than sources that are directly linked to or commenting on these clips, I can't find any reference to the supposed UFO crash in the Andes in the 70s. Does this debunk the claim? Of course not. But it's a little odd.

If someone claims that an event is "well known" or "well documented' but then nothing independant turns up, that's weird and it makes the whole thing smell a bit off. It's a good story though, would've made for a good X Files episode.

I'd be more inclined to believe somebody who said they had recently uncovered something new/interesting about that alien that supposedly crashed and was buried in Texas back in the 19th century because at least that really is a well known incident.

Mmnnnnn... So I guess we should not jump into conclusions until further documentation, footage, analysis. We don't want to make the same mistake we did with the recently Bigfoot story!

This reminds me of the Roswell crash... I guess this is a new task for me to see if I can get more info on this. So far no good.

Don't have the time to read through the entire thread. But I love the fact that these guys just walk into this barn and reveal a corpse.

Appartently roting alien corspes don't smell at all.

I'm know expert, but I would guess that anything that has been left lieing in a box for a couple of years out in the hot sun would probably smell extraterrestrail.

If it were real the camera crew would have be hurling uncontrolably.

End Communication.
