If we look at what is going on today, this message makes more sense than it would have in the late seventies.
I want to take us into the
0:22
past and i want to discuss one of the
0:25
strangest events i guess you could call
0:27
it that many of you probably haven't
0:30
heard about but that to this day still
0:33
has a lot of controversy surrounding it
0:35
and that is what has become known as the
0:38
southern television broadcast
0:40
interruption and this occurred on the
0:43
evening of november 26th 1977 where for
0:47
a time span of around five minutes
0:50
british television viewers who had just
0:52
sat down to watch their local news
0:54
suddenly had their broadcast interrupted
0:57
by something that describes itself as an
1:00
alien the unknown voice interrupted the
1:04
television transmission for around six
1:06
minutes and claimed to be a
1:08
representative of an intergalactic
1:10
association reports of the incident very
1:13
with some calling the speaker by the
1:16
name lon
1:17
or Gil on others have called them a stir
1:20
on the voice which was accompanied by a
1:23
deep buzzing sound broke into the
1:26
broadcast of the local I TV station
1:29
overriding the UHS audio signal of the
1:32
early evening news being read by Andrew
1:35
Gardner from ITN to warn viewers that
1:39
quote all of your weapons of evil must
1:41
be removed and that you have but a short
1:44
time to learn to live together in peace
1:47
the interruption ceased shortly after
1:50
the statement had been delivered
1:51
transmissions returning to normal
1:54
shortly before the end of a looney tunes
1:56
episode later in the evening southern
1:59
television apologized for what it
2:01
described as a quote breakthrough in
2:04
sound for some viewers IT and also
2:07
reported on the incident in its own way
2:10
evening saturday bulletin the broadcast
2:13
took over sound only leaving the video
2:16
signal unaltered aside from a little
2:18
picture distortion
2:20
now to this day there have been a number
2:22
of theories as to whether this was real
2:26
whether it was an elaborate hoax and if
2:30
you ask a large group of people today
2:31
they would likely say it was a hoax but
2:34
again on the other hand to this day the
2:37
identity of the hijacker is unknown and
2:41
the question has been raised as to why
2:43
someone would put such effort into this
2:46
and to broadcast such a powerful and
2:50
true message whether it was real or not
2:52
just to say that they could do it now
2:56
what we do know and i'll play you guys
2:58
this in a second is that the hannington
3:01
uhf television transmitter was unusual
3:05
in being one of the few transmitters
3:07
which rebroadcast and off-air signal
3:10
received by another transmitter as a
3:12
consequence it apparently is said to
3:15
have been open to a kind of signal
3:17
intrusion as even a relatively low power
3:21
transmission very close to the receiver
3:23
could overwhelm its reception of an
3:26
intended signal resulting in an
3:28
unauthorized transmission being
3:30
amplified and rebroadcast across a wider
3:34
area was also striking is that many of
3:37
the tech support agents who worked at
3:39
the television station are quoted as
3:41
saying that to carry out such a hoax
3:44
would take a considerable amount of
3:47
technical know-how and that not only
3:50
would a hoaxer have to jam the
3:52
transmitting signal but would also have
3:54
to be very very close to it and for such
3:58
an elaborate quote hoax
4:00
you would think that whoever was behind
4:02
it would want maybe a little bit of
4:04
notoriety and yet to this day not one
4:07
single name or person has been released
4:10
to the public whether it be by his or
4:12
hers own admission or by the admission
4:15
of the television station itself
4:18
many believe to this day that this was
4:21
in fact a real transmission and that the
4:24
word spoke in the message are very
4:26
powerful and very true and that the
4:28
television station and possibly the
4:30
British government were definitely
4:32
trying to cover something up i'll go
4:35
ahead and allow you to watch the
4:37
original transmission from that day at
4:40
5-10 p.m. on November 26 1977 and we'll
4:45
talk more about it here in just a moment
4:48
there are conditions include loving the
4:52
executional capture prisoners of all
4:54
right students from the computer
5:36
[Music]
5:45
issues with the present moment all the
6:04
guys that you're going to help
6:17
additional policy solved
6:36
[Music]
6:47
I'm just like you technically want to do
6:56
when he goes right in there are visual
7:14
statement protect you
7:43
there's proof that radium are completely
8:14
different and we can talk about it
8:39
sorted
8:40
[Music]
8:52
so there you have it the broadcast here
9:04
again was audio only
9:06
and these subtitles were added in
9:08
afterwards rough translation and again
9:11
the voice of the person speaking it's
9:15
very strange
9:16
that's been pointed out this strange
9:19
deep buzz sound that accompanied it and
9:23
of course the message that was spoken
9:26
that one could only hope an
9:28
extraterrestrial being would say given
9:32
the chance to speak with the people who
9:34
are polluting and destroying our
9:36
beautiful planet now after this happened
9:38
there was some alarm by the people who
9:41
watched it and it attracted a
9:44
considerable amount of publicity
9:46
throughout the world in fact numerous
9:49
American newspapers picked up on the
9:51
story and the broadcast became a
9:53
footnote in the u.s. apology community
9:56
with many people still arguing to this
9:59
day as to whether it was a hoax or not
10:01
and many who have questioned the
10:04
explanation that this was some sort of
10:06
transmitter hijack in fact within just
10:09
two days of the report of the incident
10:12
in The Times a letter to the editor
10:14
published on November 30th 1977 asked
10:18
quote Falcon the iba or anyone else for
10:21
that matter be sure that the broadcast
10:24
was a hoax the Editorial Board of one
10:27
local newspaper commented quote nobody
10:30
seemed to consider that the broadcast
10:33
may have been very real
10:35
whatever you guys believe I think that
10:38
this is still one of the most intriguing
10:40
and strange occurrences that I've ever
10:43
come across in this research and it
10:45
continues to definitely be a footnote in
10:48
this work we do and really whether you
10:51
think it was real or not the message
10:53
still remains as does the mountain of
10:56
evidence
10:57
we truly are being visited and have been
11:00
for quite some time so with the thank
11:02
you guys for watching today be sure to
11:05
like share and subscribe on your way out
11:07
