In 1995, a low-quality black and white video purportedly showcasing an alien autopsy was broadcast to over a billion viewers in 32 countries. The film, allegedly discovered near Roswell, New Mexico – a location linked with a UFO crash in 1947 – was later revealed to be a sophisticated hoax filmed in a London apartment by a skilled magician. Ray Santilli, a London entrepreneur who sold the footage to various media outlets, has maintained that he recreated deteriorated real footage he had seen years earlier. A new documentary titled “The Alien Autopsy Scandal” is now revisiting this infamous incident.
Renowned Mirror photographer Mike Maloney, known for his work in Fleet Street, has made startling revelations that could reshape the UFO debate. He claims to have been shown an actual alien autopsy film back in 1978 during a visit to Los Angeles for a photo shoot with Daryl Hannah.
During a lunch meeting with studio executives that included Walt Disney’s original animators, Mike was invited to view a film allegedly depicting an alien autopsy. Despite initial skepticism, the experience left him questioning his beliefs.
Describing the film he saw, Mike recalled observing an alien figure in motion with closed eyes, moving limbs, and a semi-conscious appearance. The discrepancies between this genuine experience and the later debunked footage convinced him of the latter’s inauthenticity.
Mike’s certainty in the authenticity of the original film was reinforced by a conversation with acclaimed director Stanley Kubrick, who corroborated the existence of such footage. Additionally, Mike was informed by Ward about possessing a physical fragment of the Roswell spacecraft, further complicating the mystery.
The saga continued as Ray Santilli and Gary Shoefield embarked on a quest for Elvis Presley footage in 1992, leading to the alleged acquisition of reels depicting the Roswell autopsies. The subsequent broadcast of this footage in 1995 ignited widespread debate and scrutiny, ultimately revealing the elaborate fabrication behind the scenes.
With the resurgence of interest in UFO-related topics, including upcoming declassification of UFO documents by the US government, Mike anticipates that the film footage he witnessed may eventually be authenticated. Despite the uncertainties, he remains optimistic about the eventual validation of the truth behind these extraordinary events.
