In a personal conversation with the researcher of anomalous phenomena Alexei Priima, engineer K. S. Vostryakov from the town of Shakhty, Rostov region, once told the following story.
- I'm an atheist. I don’t believe in God or in devil. And all sorts of tales about miracles, supposedly occasionally occurring in the world here and there, I consider absolutely absurd fables. But one day an incident happened in my life that struck a sensitive blow to my disbelief in the possibility of miracles in this world.
That evening I was returning home, lightly drunk, from a friend I had visited. It was July 6, 1993. About eleven o'clock in the evening. Then I walked along a deserted street on the outskirts of our city. I repeat, I was a little drunk. There was only a couple of short blocks to walk to my house. And then I fell into this devil's trap!
The trap was invisible. With all my body, I suddenly bumped into an invisible wall. Hit her very hard because he walked fast. Infinitely surprised, he began to fumble with his hands first in front of him, and then around him.
After a couple of seconds it turned out that I was standing inside something that looked like an invisible pipe, my arms thrown up did not reach its upper edge.
The pipe seemed to extend from the ground straight into the sky. Or at least she was much taller than me. Its diameter did not exceed one and a half meters.
- Didn't you have any sharp object with you? For example, a knife.
- No. There was no … Ah, I understand what you mean. Even if I had a knife with me, I don't think I would have been able to pierce that invisible pipe with them. Completely stunned by what was happening, I pounded on the pipe that surrounded me with my fists, crashed into the obstacle with my shoulder.
Promotional video:
The pipe was as smooth as glass and as hard as steel. But such a phenomenon should not exist in nature in principle! An invisible pipe trap? This is complete nonsense! Absurd! I say this as an atheist, as a materialist by conviction. And then…
Vostryakov shook his head in shock.
“Then,” he said, “a passenger car appeared at the crossroads, which I had to reach about fifteen meters. She flew into an intersection from an alley perpendicular to the street along which I was walking to my house.
I don't know where and why her driver was in a hurry. The car was racing at a terrible speed. She flashed at the intersection in front of my eyes in one second and disappeared from my eyes. In the next instant, the invisible pipe that surrounded me suddenly disappeared somewhere.
- If this pipe had not held you on the way to the intersection for a few seconds …
- That's it! cried Vostryakov with ardor. - I would be under the wheels of that car!
The engineer shook his head again, stunned.
- What does it do? he said in an alarming whisper. - It turns out that there is such a phenomenon in this world as a guardian angel?
- It turns out there is, - Priyma answered him.
