Light is not affected by magnetism because photons don't have a charge. So I guess it would have to be gravity but then all sorts of things like trees etc would have been ripped out. The light bending story is fantasy in my opinion.

So basically your proof...is their word against everyone else's? Nice.

It's difficult to compare eyewitness testimony in a court of law and witnesses seeing a UFO. The results for said testimony are quite different. But for arguments sake, let's compare the two. In a court of law for some countries, you must have more than eyewitness testimony to reach a conviction, although evidence along with eyewitness testimony, this becomes easier. In others, a single witness can convict someone. Before due process and laws so complex that a burglar can sue a home owner for more than he was stealing, common sense ruled, and eyewitness testimony counted for more. Keep that in mind.
But in the courts, previous convictions or accusations can count against someone. It is easier to convict someone who has previous counts or suspicions of theft, rape, murder, etc., with the same amount of eyewitness testimony.
So.. does the preponderance of previous sightings, photos and video have the same weight of a person who has previous convictions? I sort of think so, yes. A mountain of evidence, as Stanton Friedman calls it. How many mountains of evidence are needed before it is proof? Apparently, we need the Swiss Alps when it comes to UFOs.

I'm right with you on this one. Anything I can't figure out is fantasy.

Don't give your footage out to anyone unless you have a backup of it.

June 26 and June 27, newspapers first began using the terms "flying saucer" and "flying Herbert Strentz, who reviewed U.S. newspaper accounts of the Arnold UFO sighting, and concluded that the term was probably due to an editor or headline writer: the body of the early Arnold news stories did not use the term "flying saucer" or "flying disc."[15] However, earlier stories did in fact credit Arnold with using terms such as "saucer", "disk", and "pie-pan" in describing the shape.
Years later, Arnold claimed he told Bill Bequette that "they flew erratic, like a saucer if you skip it across the water." Arnold felt that he had been misquoted since the description referred to the objects' motion rather than their shape.[4] Thus Bequette has often been credited with first using "flying saucer" and supposedly misquoting Arnold, but the term does not appear in Bequette's early articles. Instead, his first article of June 25 says only, "He said he sighted nine saucer-like aircraft flying in formation..."
Years later, Arnold claimed he told Bill Bequette that "they flew erratic, like a saucer if you skip it across the water." Arnold felt that he had been misquoted since the description referred to the objects' motion rather than their shape.
The first highly publicized sighting by Kenneth Arnold on June 24, 1947, resulted in the creation of the term by U.S. newspapers. Although Arnold never specifically used the term "flying saucer", he was quoted at the time saying the shape of the objects he saw was like a "saucer", "disc", or "pie-plate", and several years later added he had also said "the objects moved like saucers skipping across the water." (The Arnold article has a selection of newspaper quotes.)
