Hi, I was in my early 20`s, I`m 51 now.I was walking along northeast along Island Rd. in Bristol Virginia. I think around 9 or 9:30 PM. I saw out of the corner of my eye a big orange ball of light with a white circle of light around it, about the size of a Volkswagen. It came down and around in front of me then went back up. I was alone and it sort of scared but it was gone.

I kept walking about a 1/4 mile, had a feeling like I was being followed, looked back saw nothing. Then out of the corner of my eye again about 20 foot or so above tree level was a huge craft, nothing like I`d ever seen before, following me as I was walking very slow. {not a flying saucer} Anyway I kept walking and it followed me about a mile.

I got to the top of the hill, turned and sat on the guard rail and thought I would try to communicate with it telepathically. It came around me and went over a hill still real low and slow and looked like it came down to land in a field over the hill. Well I was fascinated and started to go over the hill and take a look at it, about that time 2 guys came jogging up the road it was around 10:00 PM now. The 2 guys just about got out of sight and this thing came back up and right toward me made 1 circle around me and flew off in a northwest direction.

I had been walking northeast from Bristol Virginia toward Abingdon Virginia. I told several people. They just thought I was crazy. About 2 weeks later something happened to me that has never happened before and has never happened again. I shouldn't tell it but I will. You know what it feels like when you get a hair in your mouth? Well I had one and tried to get it out and was pulling it and thought, what the heck? It kept coming way over a foot, then it stopped and was actually growing in the center of my tongue. Now you tell me how that happened. Like I said it has never happened before and has never happened again.

I told a friend about this and he was looking at my like he didn`t believe a word I was saying and when I told him about the hair his eyes got big and he said "I don`t believe I`d a told that". We still get a kick out of it sometimes.

Anyway several years later I was watching a tv show called Sightings and the show was about a ufo that was seen in Saltville, Virginia about the same time along interstate 81 that was very similar to what I experienced. I`ve seen several things since but they were so high up I couldn't really say they were ufo`s, but the one that followed me that night nobody could convince me it wasn`t.

This man now believes ufos exist. Does his experience sound like he was visited by visitors from another planet? Or did he encounter "spiritual wickedness in high places" which scripture tells us is what we are at war against? Or did he just smoke one too many? You decide.
