Betty and Barney Hill
|
Famous abductee Betty Hill, who was taken aboard a UFO
along with her husband Barney in New Hampshire in 1961,
says, "They grabbed us to see if we were similar to them. I
can understand why they were interested in us physically. I
don't hold that against them, to this day."
She's now 84, ailing and living alone (her husband died in
1989). Some researchers have speculated that the couple
attracted alien attention because she's white and he was
black, which was unusual at the time. In the Globe & Mail,
Bram Eisenthal quotes her as saying, "They were under five
feet tall. They look more like us, like actual people, than
weirdoes. The main difference is that their eyes are huge,
and they have thin noses and thin lips. The leader spoke
English, rather than using telepathy, as they are often
portrayed."
After the two-hour ordeal, they were both troubled, and
Barney developed stress diseases. Their fears were finally
calmed when the underwent hypnosis two years later, and
eventually took lie detector tests.
A TV film was made about their experience in 1975. Hill
says, "The producers had a big problem with their portrayals
of the aliens?They really do look more like us.[The aliens
have] proven to me that God is universal."
Will we ever learn the ETs'
