Falcon Lake incident
DISPUTED
Amateur prospector Stefan Michalak said two glowing craft descended near him; one landed on a rock outcrop. When he touched it, a blast of hot gas from a grid-like vent burned his chest. CBC has called it Canada’s best-documented UFO case.
Explanation
RCMP, RCAF and the Condon Committee could not explain it; some soil samples were mildly radioactive, possibly from radium paint. Later marks on Michalak’s body were judged self-inflicted.
