§997

‘While minding my own business, I saw a bright yellow thing zip/streak across our garden at an abnormal speed about two metres off the ground… It was going so fast that it left a laser-like motion blur trail, kind of like the superhero ‘The Flash’ except it was yellow and about the size of a baseball. At this point I was quite certain that I had just seen this but was already questioning my sanity. The first thing that came to mind was ‘it must’ve been a low-flying bird or maybe a locust or something’ …except it was waaaaaay too fast to have been any bird/insect. So, I’m looking in the neighbour’s big tree (the direction in which it went) for this so-called bird but couldn’t see anything. As I tilted my head downwards, I saw this yellow thing hovering by my stomach. I didn’t feel it climb up me or pulling on my shirt. I cannot give an accurate description of what it looked like because I only saw it for a couple seconds, but it was no bird or insect. Naturally, I freaked out and swiped it off of me. It had weight behind it so I wasn’t hallucinating. I then saw it hit the ground and dart off at a million miles per hour. Afterwards, I thought it may have been hovering by my stomach because I was born with my intestines on the outside (Gastroschisis). I have a semi large scar where most people have a bellybutton. For years I thought it was probably a Fairy, but I can’t say for sure and I don’t remember it having any wings. I think about this experience almost daily, it shattered my idea of what’s actually possible.’ ‘I only saw it for a couple of seconds, it was unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Mostly yellow with patches of black and white… It wasn’t entirely yellow.’ ‘I don’t remember it making a noise apart from hitting the ground. It might’ve squeaked when I hit it.’ ‘But I did have a completely different paranormal experience in our front garden a year or two later involving human-sized beings of light.’ ‘The being was really small and was seemingly impervious to gravity.’ ‘Very small alien creatures.’ ‘After I saw it zip across our garden, I somehow knew that it was still around. I thought that it knew that I saw it. I’d just seen the gob-smacking speed of it and realised that it could run ten circles around me without me even blinking.’
