SUBJECT: DAVID JACOBS INTERVIEW FILE: UFO2477
Jacobs:
"Basically what people say is, that they are abducted out of their
normal environment and are taken into this object, their clothes are
taken off, they are given a physical examination of an unusual
variety, -- and here we go plunging into the bizarre, but this is what
is reported by virtually everyone -- they have a sperm and/or an egg
sample taken from them and they are then subjected to a variety of
other procedures -- sometimes they are presented with extraordinary-
looking, little babies, uhh, strange looking beings that they are
required to hold and then they are sometimes given machine
examinations - placed inside machines and so forth, and then they are
released. Now, a lot of other things happen, but they do not always
happen at every occasion".
Host:
"Do they describe how the sperm and egg samples are taken?"
Jacobs:
well, eggs are taken internally, with certain very carefully described
instruments. Sperm is collected strictly mechanically. There are are
actually three or four different kinds of devices, basically they are
all the same though, and oftentimes the man doesn't even know what is
happening, it's a very quick procedure. What you are looking at
primarily here is an extraordinary convergence of story and detail, a
richness of detail that is impossible to understand other than through
objective reality. People begin to describe certain things within the
abduction - phenomenon that have never, ever been publicized and that
they would simply not know to invent. They all essentially say the
same thing, over and over again... and they'll say things and look at
me inquiringly and say, "has anybody else ever reported anything like
this?" .. and of course I've already heard it 200 times.. and it's
just an extraordinary situation. Now physically, when people think
they have had an abduction experience, they might first of all say
that there was a missing time experience, they cannot account for two
hours of their life. For instance they'll travel from work to home and
they know it takes 12 minutes each way and they've been doing it for
years and then one day it takes two ~hours~ and 12 minutes and they
are at a loss to explain this, it seemed perfectly seemless to them.
Well, in every one of these situations of missing time, the people
have actually ~been~ missing. It's not a situation where they claim
it, and then independent investigation has revealed that they were
down at the corner bar bending the old elbow. In fact, people have
called the police, because of missing children, search parties have
been organized looking for people, there has been every evidence to
suggest that people are not in place. The problem here is that if it
is not an objective event, then it is automatically internally
generated - people are just dreaming it up for whatever reason. But
the psychological and the psychiatric community have been unable to
account for how this could possibly be, and there is no precedent for
it in psychological or psychiatric literature - and most psychologists
and psychiatrists and therapists of all types who have confronted
this, have simply drawn a blank. It does not ~seem~ to be imaginary,
it does not ~seem~ to be internally generated".
(Lengthy Betty Hill clip, continuing the abduction experience)
Host:
Betty and Barney Hill's abduction was the first ever reported. That
was 29 years ago. There have been so many reported abductions since,
that investigators are able to point to what ~they~ see as an amazing
similarity among these stories. All have the same sorts of events.
Aliens that look the same, the same physical examinations and so on. A
key element here is that certain features of these stories are
withheld from the public. That makes it much more difficult for anyone
to fake an abduction story. But it's frustrating. We'd all like to
know what some of these ~secret~ features are. But you can't ask the
researchers to reveal them... can you? Dr. David Jacobs."
Jacobs:
Sure you can. There's so many of them, there's so little that is known
about this subject in the public that it's just an extraordinary
situation. For instance, one of the things that people describe that
can now be revealed... as they say .. is the fact that when they leave
their car or their house or their bedroom or wherever they are during
an abduction event, they say something extraordinary, sort of amazing
that makes no sense whatsoever and they all seem to say this. They say
that they float up into the air and they appear to be floating
directly through a closed window. Now, this is an extraordinary thing
or course, and it's outrageous and unbelievable on the face of it. yet
they ~all~ say it, and they ~all~ realize when they are saying it that
it sounds crazy, and we have carefully, carefully questioned them
about whether they stopped first and opened the window and the screen
and the whole business... we don't have any cases of them opening the
window, they ~all~ say that they do this.. every one of them... and
the question is, why would they say this, this is a dumb thing to
say... this is a thing to say that will obviously point to some sort
of imagination or a hoax. But they're all fairly adamant that that's
what happens. We don't of course, understand what is happening here
completely, this is a little detail that just has not been published
before.
Host:
Don't you think I could come to you Dr. Jacobs knowing the little I
know about abduction stories. read a few more, then come to you and
say .. look. I had this strange experience, make up a bunch of details
and make a convincing story?"
Jacobs:
Well, there are two ways to deal with that. Number one, 90 percent of
the abduction phenomenon has not been publicized, so you'd have to bee
on target pretty good {chuckling} it's very tough to do. You'd be
amazed how difficult it is. In fact, I teach one of the few ... the
only course actually on UFO's in the United States at a major
university. I will tell students... give them an assignment if they
wish, to make up an abduction event and I will tell them they can read
anything that they want.. it doesn't matter, and I want them to tell
me several facts that ~all~ abductees say ~all~ the time, without
exception.. just to see it they can hit it. In the four years I've
been doing this, no one has hit it yet. What we are finding with the
abduction phenomenon is that is an extremely routinized, highly
structured event. Certain things happen to people and that's all .. in
other words, people don't describe going up .. and then your sort of
all over the place... y'know they don't describe getting out the
scrabble set and playing alien scrabble and that sort of stuff.. they
don't describe sitting down for a royal meal .. and they don't
describe watching tv with the boys. There is a whole range of things
that are never, ever described. What ~is~ described is very, ~very~
narrow, and very, very structured. You have to go where the evidence
leads you. I think that people are actually describing experiences
that have befallen them. I think that aliens are in fact taking human
beings..... I must say Jay, (Jay Ingram - program host) that I don't
like this business. I find it extremely disturbing, very depressing. I
wish that I had not found this and I wish that ~all~ researchers had
not found this. But we have found it. I think we have to start coming
to terms with this on a fairly serious basis, even though this is
about as way out as one can get in this society these days.
