In 1995, English film producer Ray Santilli released a sensational video, which allegedly depicted the autopsy of a dead alien who crashed in Roswell in 1947. This video aroused increased public interest, and it is not surprising that information about similar films began to appear after it.

At the end of the nineties, information appeared about a flying saucer of extraterrestrial origin shot down by the USSR air defense in 1968 in the Urals near the city of Berezniki and the study of the corpse of the humanoid who controlled it at the Semashko Institute. The KGB archives were indicated as the source of this information (allegedly these data were sold to an American TV channel for several thousand dollars). This information was supported by a video clip in which some military cordoned off a disk lying on the ground, as well as some pathologists conducting an autopsy of a creature allegedly delivered from the crash site. In some sources, these shots are signed as "It happened shortly after the Second World War, in the spring of 1947, in the Arkhangelsk region."

For the first time this video was shown by the American TV company TNT on September 13, 1998 in its film "The Secret KGB UFO Dossier" (The Secret KGB UFO Files). These events were covered directly from Moscow by the famous film actor Roger Moore. The film flashed documents on the forms of the KGB, FSB and the Ministry of Defense.

The information turned out to be interesting to the Western audience, the world media also picked it up, and the story began to gain momentum, acquiring details, and the film was translated into many languages.

In the film, researcher Veniamin G. Vereshchagin (a little-known or non-existent author of books about UFOs in Russia) tells that in November 1968, five UFOs, shaped like fireballs, were spotted in the sky over the Sverdlovsk region. One of the objects fell into the taiga near Berezovsky to the east of Sverdlovsk, while a distinct sound of an explosion was heard. Official sources then explained this explosion as an incident in a granary, about which there was even a note in the newspaper "Evening Sverdlovsk" dated November 29, 1968 (this information is not available in the real file of the newspaper). But, according to Vereshchagin, one of the locals came across something that looked like traces of an accident of an unknown aircraft. After that, the military and KGB officers arrived in the disaster area, and a secret operation began to evacuate the object – a mysterious light green disk. It was with the help of Vereshchagin that the channel got the film taken by the military at the UFO crash site (some sources indicate that the data on the sources are not disclosed, but note that they are retired KGB officers).

Also on the recording were shots depicting the autopsy of the alien. In a mysterious operating room, three pathologists, apparently, perform an autopsy on a humanoid. It seems that the body was seriously injured before being on the autopsy table, since doctors only work with a fragment of the body. Experts of the film suggest that the events take place in the operating room of the closed military camp "Sverdlovsk-19", where the mutilated body of the alien could be delivered before being sent to Moscow. The disk, very likely, was also taken to one of the military units in the Moscow region.

The opinions of experts were also discussed in the film:

  • MUFON (The Mutual UFO Network) specialist A. Huneius, who has been studying UFOs and ufology in Russia for a long time: He pointed out that he had never heard anything about the events near Sverdlovsk or about Vereshchagin, but does not exclude that Vereshchagin and the film he presented deserve full confidence.;
  • the discoverer of the "Prayer zone" E.F. Bachurin, who noted that he personally saw the medical records of officers who suffered from radiation and received strange burns with undamaged uniforms.

This information was confirmed in his interviews by a certain P. Klimchenkov, who is in the United States, who introduced himself as a former KGB officer and showed his ID on television. He claimed that the operation to detect and capture UFOs was codenamed "Myth". Despite the fact that nothing is said about her in the published KGB documents, the documents shown by Klimchenkov to journalists impressed the latter with genuine ones. As such documents, for example, indicate the order of the Minister of Defense A. Grechko to the commander of the Ural Military District A. Ponomarenko that KGB officers should be present at all stages of UFO detection, as well as reports to the head of the KGB scientific department, Colonel A. Grigoriev. The names of the doctors – Kamyshov, Savitsky and Gordienko - were indicated in the documents shown. It is believed that they died suddenly on the same day, a week after the autopsy, for unexplained reasons.

According to the official version, which is adhered to by foreign journalists, it is believed that the leak of information about the activities (already former at that time) The KGB happened intentionally in response to a similar story about the capture of a UFO and the autopsy of a humanoid in the United States. However, now the film is recognized as a fake, created in the wake of the popularity of the UFO theme and the alien autopsy.

The analysis of the film with all its inconsistencies is carried out on various ufo-themed websites. We have listed the sites themselves in the list of sources so that those who want to get acquainted with the analysis in more detail can do it. Here we will give a short list of the main mistakes found:

  • The first and simplest thing that catches the eye when viewing is the absence of a funnel at the crash site. The ship looks like it's just leaning against trees.
  • At the beginning of the film, the military arrive in cars of the Willys brand (Willys MB - American army cross-country vehicles of the Second World War) without license plates instead of domestic GAZ cars.
  • There are soldiers with construction battalion stripes at the crash site, but the belts are not soldiers', with a badge, but officers'. They also note inconsistencies in the handling of machine guns (the barrels are directed towards their comrades and commanders).
  • Despite the snow and frost, there are no awnings in the cars, as well as a plywood or canvas body.
  • Doctors do not wear caps and gauze bandages. They have blue gloves on their hands, which were not available in the USSR at that time.They also note the use of incorrect tools and autopsy technology: usually the chest is removed first so that the internal organs can be easily exposed; in this film, the doctor's hand climbs under the ribs and pulls something out.
  • There is a signature under the autopsy document: "Tolmakov, Deputy Dean of the Department of Anatomy of the Moscow Medical... [This line goes off-screen, and then we see] "Semashko". At the same time, only the Moscow Medical Dental Institute bears the name of N.A. Semashko. They point out that an American of Russian origin, who kept friends in his homeland, quickly sorted out this document and found out that "deputythe dean of the Department of Anatomy" in this case is just a set of words, because there has always been and there is only one department of anatomy at the institute, which had and has a head as its head.
  • Three death certificates of dissecting doctors are shown on the forms of a modern sample, put into circulation since the mid-seventies. At the same time, the line "republic" is not the RSFSR, but the Russian Federation. They also indicate the discrepancy between the names of the cause of death: "cerebral hemorrhage", despite the fact that there should be "intracerebral hemorrhage", "cerebral hemorrhage", "hemorrhagic stroke" or simply "stroke".

An investigation was published by Channel 4 News, in which journalists came to Olga Dolgaleva, a direct participant in the filming. She is an assistant director of the Gorky Film Studio. Olga said that the filming of the "Ural catastrophe" was organized at the request of representatives of the American TV channel in the Moscow region. The location for full-scale filming was chosen by the village of Alabino near Moscow, where the base of the Gorky film studio is located. The "flying saucer" was made of foam covered with paint on top. One of the local military units provided a whole company of soldiers for the "extras" (there were not enough uniforms for props, so some participants in the filming had to hide camouflage pants of a new pattern under their overcoats). However, after this investigation, it remains unclear why there are so many inaccuracies in the film concerning the "Russian" component, as well as why American cars participated in the filming.

Despite the remaining questions, this incident is currently considered a deliberate falsification of American journalists with the participation of representatives of the Gorky Film Studio.
