Show Notes
Travis Walton and Mike Rogers, the central figures in one of the most documented alien abduction cases in history, join Art Bell to tell their story in full detail for the first time on the program. Rogers describes how his logging crew witnessed a glowing craft hovering just 20 feet above the ground on the Mogollon Rim in Arizona, and the terrifying moment a blast of energy threw Walton backward like an explosion.
Rogers recounts the panicked flight down the mountain, the agonizing decision to return, and five days of massive search operations that found no trace of Walton. Meanwhile, the crew faced murder accusations from both law enforcement and the community. Walton describes regaining consciousness aboard the craft in pain, encountering small humanoid beings with large eyes, and a mysterious human-looking figure who led him to other beings before he was rendered unconscious again. Both men detail passing multiple polygraph examinations, including advanced computer-assisted tests administered in 1993.
A rare and deeply personal account from two men who paid an enormous personal price for an experience they never asked for and would never have reported voluntarily.
