The South African naval frigate "SA Tafalberg" transmitted by radio to the headquarters of the Cape Town Navy a message about the appearance of a UFO on the radar, heading to the African continent in a north-westerly direction with an estimated speed of 5746 nautical miles per hour. The object was also confirmed by airborne radars and military ground installations.

The object entered the airspace of South Africa. An attempt was made to establish radio communication with the object, but all means of communication were in vain.

Two armed Mirage fighters were scrambled. The object changed course at a tremendous speed. Soon, squadron leader Peter Goosen reported radar and visual confirmation of the object. The order was given to arm and fire an experimental aircraft mounted on the object with a Tor-2 laser cannon.

The pilots reported several blinding flashes coming from the object, then it began to wobble, continuing to move in a northerly direction. It then began to descend at 3,000 feet per minute and hit a desert area 80 km north of the South African border near Molepolole.

A crater with a diameter of 150 meters and a depth of 12 meters was discovered. In addition, a silver disc-shaped object at an angle of 45 degrees crashed into the crater. Around the object, sand and rocks merged together from the intense heat. The intense magnetic and radioactive environment around the facility led to the failure of electronics in the Air Force equipment. The ship was taken to a secret air force base.

While the investigation team was observing the object, a loud sound was heard. The hatch or entrance at the bottom of the ship opened slightly. Two humanoid creatures dressed in tight-fitting gray suits appeared and were quickly taken to the makeshift medical center. Various items were recovered from the ship for analysis. The ship was placed in a sterile environment.

The humanoids were described as being between 4 and 4.5 feet tall (1.2-1.3 m), with a light gray-blue complexion and smooth skin texture. Devoid of any bodily hair. The head is too large compared to human proportions, the raised area of the skull with dark blue markings around the head. A face with prominent cheekbones and large slanted eyes without pupils. A small nose consisting of two nostrils, a small slit like a mouth, a wide jaw. They had long, thin arms that reached just above their knees. The hands consisted of three fingers with webbed claws like fingernails. The torso, chest, and abdomen were covered with scaly, ribbed skin, and the thighs were small and narrow. The legs are short and thin. The external genitals are not visible. The feet consisted of three webbed toes, without nails.

Due to the aggressive nature of the humanoids, blood or tissue samples could not be taken. When they were offered various foods, they refused to eat. The method of communication is unknown, probably telepathic.

The humanoids are currently being held in custody at a secret air force base, pending further investigation results. More information has recently been received about this alleged crash.

A crater with a diameter of 150 meters and a depth of 12 meters was discovered. Inside the silver-colored disc-shaped object at an angle of 45 degrees crashed into the ground inside the crater. Around the object, sand and rocks merged together from the intense heat. The intense magnetic and radioactive environment around the facility led to the failure of electronics in the Air Force equipment. The aircraft was then transported to the South African Air Force base Valhalla-Pretoria.

Inside the liquid-filled chamber were three creatures plus a human. This person reacted to the Norwegian language a few months after coming out of a comatose state.

Additional more correct details:

It was reported that the object was oval or lenticular in shape, 18 meters in diameter with 3 landing supports-3 alien bodies (including 2 living ones, one of which died soon after, the second was eventually moved to the S-4 object).

The Norwegian (apparently abducted by these aliens) was found on board inside the cabin, submerged in a special oily liquid. NORAD apparently followed the object as it fell to the ground.

An experimental SDI pulse beam weapon was used to accelerate the fall of the disk, which apparently has already experienced some technical problems. South African and American personnel illegally crossed the border into Botswana to retrieve the ship.

The bodies and some materials were transported to the United States on a C-5A Galaxy cargo plane from South Africa. The origin of the ship appears to have been HD 5015 Cassiopeia, the star system of Tauaos, 60 light-years away. 2 dwarf gray aliens, 3 fingers, 90 cm tall, both alive were brought to Wright Patterson (Wright-Patterson Air Force Base), and then to S-4. 1 The alien soon died, the second lived in S-4 for a while. The third was already dead when he was found on board. The surviving alien was interrogated in the S-4 lab by a special operative MJ-12 with paranormal abilities.

On the tape, a copy of the event was allegedly stolen by a government employee named Victor.

Summary: The South African naval frigate ‘SA Tafalberg” radioed Cape Town naval HQ to report a UFO that had appeared on radar scopes heading toward the African continent in a north westerly direction at a calculated speed of 5746 nautical miles per hour. The object was also confirmed by airborne radar and military ground installations. The object entered South African air space. Radio contact was attempted with the object, but all communications proved futile. Two armed Mirage fighters were scrambled. The object changed course at great speed. Soon squadron leader Peter Goosen reported radar and visual confirmation of the object. The order was given to arm and fire and experimental aircraft mounted Thor 2 laser cannon at the object. The pilots reported several blinding flashes emanating from the object; it then started wavering whilst still heading in a northerly direction. It then began decreasing altitude at a rate of 3000 feet per minute and impacted in desert terrain 80km north of the South African border near Molepolole. A crater 150 meters in diameter and 12 meters in depth was found. Also a silver colored disc shaped object 45 degrees embedded inside of the crater. Around the object sand and rocks were fused together by the intense heat. An intense magnetic and radioactive environment around the object resulted in electronic failure in air force equipment. The craft was taken to a classified air force base. While the investigating team observed the object, a loud sound was heard. A hatch or entrance on the lower side of the craft opened slightly. Two humanoid entities clothed in tight fitting gray suits emerged and were promptly taken to a makeshift medical center. Various objects were taken from inside the craft to be analyzed. The craft was placed in a sterile environment. The humanoids were described as 4 to 4.5 feet tall, a light grayish blue complexion, and smooth skin texture. Devoid of any bodily hair. An oversize head in relation to human proportions, a raised cranium area with dark blue markings extended around the head. The face had prominent cheekbones with large slanted eyes, no pupils seen. A small nose consisting of two nostrils, a small slit like mouth, a wide jaw. They had long thin arms reaching just above the knees. Hands consisted of three digits with webbed claw like nails. The torso chest and abdomen was covered in scaled ribbed skin, hips small and narrow. The legs short and thin. No exterior sexual organs seen. Feet consisted of three webbed toes, no nails. Due to the aggressive nature of the humanoids no samples of blood or tissue could be taken. When offered various foods, they refused to eat. Method of communication is not known, suspect telepathic. Currently the humanoids are being kept in detention at a classified air force base awaiting further results of investigation. Recently additional information was obtained on this supposed crash. A crater 150 meters in diameter and 12 meters in depth was found. Inside the silver colored disc-shaped object 45 degrees embedded inside of the crater into the ground. Around the object sand and rocks were fused together by the intense heat. An intense magnetic and radioactive environment around the object resulted in electronic failure in air force equipment. The craft was then transported to the Valhalla-Pretoria South African Air Force Base. There were three entities plus a human inside a chamber filled with liquid. This human reacted to the Norwegian language several months later after recovering from a coma-like state.
Additional more correct details:
The object was reported to have been oval or lens-shaped, 18 meters in diameter with 3 landing props—3 aliens bodies (including 2 alive, one that died soon afterwards, the second was eventually moved to the S-4 facility). A Norwegian man (apparently abducted by these aliens) was found onboard inside the cabin, submerged into a special oil-like liquid. NORAD apparently tracked the object as it fell to earth. An experimental impulse ray SDI weapon was used to expedite the downing of the disk, which had apparently had already experienced some technical problems. South African and American personnel illegally crossed the Botswana border in order to retrieve the craft. The bodies and some materials were moved to the US in a C-5A Galaxy cargo airplane from South Africa. The origin of the craft was apparently HD 5015 Cassiopeia, Tauaos star system, 60 light years distant. 2 midget gray aliens, 3 fingered, 90cm in height, both alive were taken to Wright Patterson and then to S-4. 1 alien died soon, the second lived for some time at S-4. The third was already dead when found onboard. The surviving alien was interrogated in the S-4 facility by a special MJ-12 operative with paranormal powers. At tape copy of the event was allegedly stolen by a government employee named “Victor”.

Deliberate falsification

This version includes any falsifications that imitate unexplained phenomena both from the outside: practical jokes, flash mobs, fake news, witness fraud, staging, etc.

There are many ways to make something similar to a ghost or a flying saucer from improvised materials, without using video and photomontage.

Many homemade things made for the sake of a joke, a practical joke or a direct imitation of a mystical being or event can be taken as unexplained not only in photos and videos, but also in reality.
