Indeed, even in the UFO community many thought of John Mack as gullible. But to the hundreds of people who struggled with paranormal experiences and the ontological shock that rocked their world, John Mack was the most kind, gentle, compassionate and open hearted clinician any of them could wish for. He was their voice and an anchor of sanity in the midst of things that just didn't make sense. None of us truly knows the truth about UFOs and the possibility of alien presence. But to the people grappling with first hand experiences he was a rock. Approach this vast universe with the humility that John Mack did. Anything is possible, even those things that cannot be proven.

In 1993, a UFO hovered over the WH Sammis powerplant along the Ohio River, in broad daylight in the afternoon. The Empire cop took a polaroid of it. It sat at about 400 yards above the edge of the ridge on the west ridge valley top, just before it slopes down to the ohio river. It stayed there for like 15 minutes, like it was watching the plant, then it zipped to the east and was out of sight in a few seconds. Empire was the town that almost touched the power plant, so quite a few people saw it very closely. It was a aluminum looking disc with a bulging center. The region is a cesspool of industry, including a waste incineration plant. The aliens (probably) are amazed at our pollution abilities.

This is a tutelary comment for civility and clarity in responding to a charged or controversial topic, but I don't think you're right here. I mean I think you're misrepresenting Dr. Grande's argument, wittingly or not. I can't find an explicit claim in this video where the doctor says, as a matter of fact, that alien abductions cannot happen. In fact, in his final thoughts, he mentions that 'in my opinion...' and goes on to say that John Mack's intellectual shortcoming (at least as far as those people he worked with who claimed some sort of pertinent experience) was his refusal or inability to consider a natural explanation for what these people experienced, or to allow for the possibility that at last some of those he worked with might have been disingenuous with him, to whatever degree. This shows me that Dr. Grande qualified his statements as being his opinion - he does tell us, after all, at the beginning of every video that he's only speculating, along with the 'my opinion' hedge in his final thoughts statements - and that he is aware of and takes into account the intellectual trap of not allowing for an explanation beyond one's own pre-existing beliefs. I just don't see how, in this video at least, he gets anywhere near the tautology you ascribe to him.

"The Genius of John E. Mack": If John E. Mack lacks credibility for his positions, then everyone lacks credibility. Another way to say this is that he had the proper credentials for speaking about his chosen topics. Just as we prefer to listen to doctors when it comes to health matters or broken bones, and financial advisers when it comes to money, John E. Mack basically has shown that "alien abduction" is "for real." In a sense he assumes the basic liberal assumptions of people from his class and background. But it was the topic of alien abduction where his research bore the most impressive fruit. What impressed Mack the most was, as Dr. Grande points out, that the metaphors and tropes shared by those he interviewed conform to a pattern that varied only in small, unimportant ways. I think we might conclude from this that "alien abduction" is not some delusion of the ignorant, as it were, but a fully respectable position. In other words, there really is a war going on, as H.G. Wells noted in the title, "War of the Worlds," and it has been described in ancient Greek myth as the gods, in Christianity as demons and angels, and today as mental illness and aberrant behavior. Mack was harassed and bullied by people in position because his research was unsettling to them and their worldview. When your basic position is: (1) there is no capital "G" God and (2) everything will eventually be explained as "matter in motion," then (3) you have the imposition of a prison with academics and journalists as wardens.I appreciate the fact that his work discredits the skeptical and atheistic position of academics who offer people nothing but verbosity and sophistry.

I used to experience sleep paralysis pretty frequently. I learned to relax my body and then I could wake up. It was pretty scary. Now I think it was caused by sleep apnea when I would stop breathing. A special pillow has minimized the sleep apnea, so I don’t experience sleep paralysis anymore.

The timeliness of this video is uncanny for me. Last night, at age 39, I think I had my second - ever - sleep paralysis episode. There were heavy storms in my area. I was woken by the thunder and had difficulty falling back asleep. I was going in and out. At one point I woke up to the din of the thunder and was looking at my cat who was asleep next to my head. Suddenly, this bizarre, aggressive buzzing sound crept up in the room quickly and became an immense cacophony. I completely panicked and tried to get up to try to figure out what the noise was, but couldn't move. It kept getting louder and it was extremely aggressive; almost hostile. I was completely shaken with terror because it was so obviously happening. I was completely convinced that this wasn't just some hypnogogic hallucination and that there really was this malicious sound swarming me and yet I couldn't even move to investigate it. That's the last thing I remember. Apparently I ended up falling asleep and getting an otherwise pretty decent night of sleep. Woke up for work this morning and that was that lol

I find that to be a condescending tone on the late Dr Mack. He (Dr Mack) could have been desperate and just looking for a large platform to clear his name. But my question is WHY go through the effort of discrediting a man who was investigating a phenomenon that was on the fringe of modern science?

"The most probable explanation was mass hysteria"...Just like when 62 people see a car accident, the most probable explanation is also "mass hysteria", despite the fact that each witness can independently identify exactly what happened. I will start questioning anything large groups of people witness from now on...thx Dr Grande. Makes perfect sense! But better rewrite the legal system which relies on multiple witness testimony to convict criminals.

Thank you for another interesting video. I look forward to reading your book :)

Any hints on how to snap out of it?

I tend to doubt that all 150+ witnesses of the Ariel school incident (including adults and children of different ages and backgrounds) were coincidentally creative, distrustful and had cluster A personality features.

The cacti are taking over. The diagonal line is unsettling.

Had to listen to that twice. " Explore personality angles before packing one's bags for an alien vacation." May I steal that? It applies to so many things.

Very interesting. I never heard of sleep paralysis before. That explains an experience I had in 1995. In my dream (that felt more like an out-of body travel than a dream), I was in a cave floating and I could clearly see an object that looked like some kind of cup or grail covered by a light brown velvet cloth when I suddenly heard my baby crying and felt as if I was pulled back through a birth cannal. Then I was awake in my bed with my mouth open paralysed. I felt anxiety because I couldn't close my mouth nor move and my baby was still crying. Never had such an experience again. It was very puzzling and a bit scary.

That they could exist: not so hard. That they do, without question, exist: hard. You need more evidence than "some people say so" and some blurry pictures.

But if you look back to so-called "incontrovertible evidence" of UFOs, ghosts, bigfoot, etc. from the 1950s, or even the 1970s, it's obvious, to our eyes, that the pictures and videos are fake. Not so then.

I loved this video!! I have had sleep paralysis several times during my life and, while I have never experienced an “alien abduction”, I can attest that they felt very real and were very disturbing and left me shaken to the core. In each separate incident the “entity” that visited me was usually different from the other instances in which I had sleep paralysis. Therefore, based on my own personal experience, I have arrived at the conclusion that the menacing being that appears to you during sleep paralysis represents what you fear the most during that period of time in your life. I’m not sure if my theory has any validity but that is the best explanation I can come up with without believing it is something far worse. Would you consider doing a more in-depth discussion of sleep paralysis and dreams in general? Thanks.

Look at the drawings those kids made of what they saw - they're all so similar. How could 60 kids draw the same thing that wasn't there?
