In the mid-70s of the twentieth century in the Danish capital Copenhagen, an international exhibition was held under the motto Karlek eller Kaos ("Love or Chaos"). It was housed in the old (17th century) Charlottenburg Palace.
There was also a stand of the association of Swedish ufologists Free UFO Study (FUFOS). Hundreds of visitors lingered around him every day to listen to the UFO news and to view the accompanying slides.
Disaster in a forest clearing
One morning, when a group of schoolchildren gathered at the stand, they were joined by an elegant gentleman of about sixty. After listening to the message and watching the slides, the schoolchildren left, they were replaced by new visitors, and the man did not leave.
The stand attendants were interested in the unusual behavior of the visitor, and one of them tried to talk to him. At first, he took it with caution, but then, apparently, he felt sympathy for the interlocutor and told him the following story:
“In 1955, I worked as a lumberjack with two older brothers on the coast of the Gulf of Bothnia in the Swedish province of Westernorrland. One early morning in July, at six o'clock, we, as usual, were about to start cutting, when suddenly we heard the noise that happens when a large animal makes its way through the thicket breaking branches. And a moment later we saw a cigar-shaped object flying between the trees.
At first I thought it was a small plane trying to make an emergency landing, which had lost its wings.
Promotional video:
Three hundred meters further in the direction of his movement, a river flowed, to which he probably tried to reach. We realized that it was about to collapse, and moved after it. We did not have time to run even twenty meters when the object fell into a clearing about forty meters from the river bank.
We expected to see smoke and flames, to hear the rumble of an explosion, but nothing of the kind happened. In absolute silence, an incredibly bright light suddenly illuminated everything around. At the same time, we felt the impact of such a powerful air wave that the tree trunks bent.
When the mysterious radiance faded and the air calmed down, we went to the clearing to see what happened, but saw nothing: the place where the object fell was littered with a heap of trees.
Contact with the enlonaut
Deciding to return to work, we had barely taken a dozen steps when one of the brothers exclaimed:
- Hey, look! There's a dwarf in uniform lying here.
For some time we stood in silence, looking at a strange creature that showed no signs of life. It was just over a meter tall, surrounded by a pulsing aura of dim white light. We realized that this is an extraterrestrial alien. One of the brothers touched the humanoid, but immediately recoiled with a cry and said that at the moment of touching him as if he was shocked. At the same moment, the alien opened his eyes and said quietly in Swedish:
“Don't touch me, or you’ll get in trouble. Now you already know who I am.
We realized that he can read our minds. Having come to our senses a little, we began to carefully examine the alien. He had the right facial features. The skin color is yellowish, like that of an Asian. The eyes are black, deep-set, but without whites. The alien's face had several wounds, and a colorless liquid oozed from them. On the neck could be seen what looked like shark gills. The look was complemented by thin bloodless lips. When the humanoid smiled shyly, we saw two rows of even small teeth. His small palms had five fingers of almost the same length without nails.
The alien's attire, made of a reddish metal-like material, was tightly fitted to the body. On his feet were boots, their thick grooved soles reminiscent of tank tracks. Probably, the shoes served as an individual vehicle for the humanoid. A wide metal belt with a huge buckle that emitted blue light wrapped around the alien's waist.
In its center was a sign that looked like a U with a V inside it.
Star Alien's Tale
Seeing that I was looking at him, the alien said:
- I can stay with you a little longer only thanks to the spacesuit. Inside it, I am already destroyed.
Then his right hand touched his thigh and disappeared inside the suit, although there was no pocket visible. He pulled out something like a remote control with small buttons, like a matchbox. A miniature pencil was attached to it. The humanoid pressed the buttons with them several times, then threw the remote to the side.
“Don't touch him,” he warned. “This device will tell my comrades what happened to me so that they won't look for me. After all, where I came from, they are waiting for me …
For some time the stranger lay calmly, only his hands periodically trembled. He must have been in great pain.
At that moment, the brothers looked at each other and, without a word, headed deeper into the forest. I asked them to stay, but they didn't seem to hear me. Now, after many years, I am sure that they obeyed the telepathic order of the alien. I stayed and talked with him until his death.
Here is the little that, overcoming excruciating pain and gathering the rest of his strength, the star alien told me. He came from one of the planets in the constellation that we call Eagle. We, earthlings, are visited by representatives of several space civilizations. Some aliens have been watching us for thousands of years. There are those who are exploring the Earth to find out the possibility of creating their own colonies on it. Aliens have been in contact with earthlings for several centuries.
Death of an alien
Having finished his story, the humanoid handed me a bag, which he also took from an invisible pocket, and said:
“When I die, the light around my body will go out, and then you and your comrades will throw me in a sack into the river. But do not enter the water so as not to experience painful sensations.
Then he began to breathe convulsively, and I realized that his end was near. The halo of light around him began to fade and soon disappeared, and the shining buckle faded. The humanoid opened his eyes and spoke a few words in a language I had never heard before or since. Then I switched to Swedish:
- You are not born of your own will and leave it in spite of her. Your life is like fog …
He spoke a few more words, but nothing could be made out. I'm pretty sure he prayed before he died.
It amazed me
Then I went and called the brothers for help. Together we put the remains of the alien in a bag and carried it to the river. The nose burned our palms, the smell of sulfur emanated from it. The newcomer was very heavy. When we lowered the bag into the river, the water boiled around. In about five minutes not a trace remained of him."
And here is the evidence
- Perhaps I have nothing more to tell, - the unusual visitor finished his story, getting ready to move away from the stand. Then he added: - I remember what happened so clearly, as if everything was yesterday. In your slides, I recognized an alien and was surprised because I thought I was the only person who saw the alien. Before, I came across a lot of pictures and drawings of aliens, but none of the images looked like the one with whom I had a chance to communicate and whom my brothers and I buried in the river …
Suddenly, the visitor took out of his pocket a metal rod that looked like a thick needle and showed it to his interlocutor:
- Here, take a look.
- What is it? - asked the stand assistant.
The visitor smiled:
- Two days after what happened, I returned to that place. The remote control disappeared, and the "pencil" lay in the grass in its original place. I picked it up as proof that I hadn't dreamed anything.
Having said this, the elegant gentleman walked away and was lost among the visitors of the exhibition.
