Episode 36: #8 – The Men-in-Black<\/strong><\/p><\/h3><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

We live in a very mysterious world, and there\u2019s so very much that we don\u2019t understand about it. And, that is just on this planet\u2026. But, we also live in a universe that for those of us who are experiencers, know is teaming with life. There are many things that happen here that just don\u2019t make any sort of sense at all. Some of these things we can say are lies, or hoaxes, delusions, or misinterpretations of events seen or experienced. But sometimes, it is very, very hard to dismiss the strange things that happen, especially when we can\u2019t rationalize the event \u2013 whatever that may be. Especially, when it is so far out of our paradigm of what our shared reality may be.<\/p>\n

AND, even if we are able to create some sort of rationalization for what we just experienced or saw \u2013 very often we know we are just fooling ourselves, but refuse to delve any deeper into the subject, for fear of what we may find, or what it may reveal about the nature of this reality we find ourselves in. We find ourselves not ready to question, or want to acknowledge that the event even happened. So, we chose the easier and safer option for us, and that is trying to rationalize the event away \u2013 Or to even deny to ourselves that the event actually happened\u2026.<\/p>\n

Some people who have witnessed UFO<\/a>\u2019s in our night, or day skies \u2013 or even on the ground, as the case may be. Don\u2019t want to talk about what they saw, don\u2019t want to think about it \u2013 \u2018cause, it is too far out of their considered version of what reality is. And, that is a perfectly understandable reaction for some \u2013 particularly since this subject is still treated with derision, and as a joke by some people. Others simply refuse to believe, or even consider the probability that life exists outside of this planet\u2026. And, so these people try and put the experience behind them to forget about it and move on with their version of reality.<\/p>\n

However, sometimes this is not possible. Because some people have follow up experiences that most often shake them very seriously, and can create fear in them. I am referring here to the mysterious Men-In-Black \u2013 or MIB. Most people when they hear the term MIB they think of that very funny nineteen-ninety-seven movie<\/a> starring Will Smith<\/a> and Tommy Lee Jones<\/a> \u2013 with that wonderful catchy rap tune<\/a> sung by Will Smith, that spanned a franchise of four movies in total. They think it is all just a Hollywood invention, not actually knowing of the reality of the situation. Often people still treat this aspect of the UFO subject with a great deal of skepticism and doubt. \u00a0But for those who have experienced the men (and sometimes women) in black for themselves they know very well of the reality of their existence. I personally have<\/em> had an experience with these Men-In-Black, when I was a kid, the day after having a UFO encounter. It left an indelible impression on me, and I will share my experience later in this episode.<\/p>\n

Are you ready to take a trip with me into this<\/em> part of the Shadowlands, and see what we discover? Then, let\u2019s begin\u2026.<\/p>\n

What Are the MIB?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Firstly, what are the Men-In-Black? These elusive men, and sometimes women \u2013 who or what are they? When did they first come into the consciousness of humanity? Let\u2019s take a brief look firstly at what they are, then at the known history of these beings \u2013 people, whatever they may be. What they do \u2013 or their supposed role, and then I\u2019ll give you a physical description of them \u2013 which hasn\u2019t altered too much from the 20\u2019s when they were first reported. Finally, I\u2019ll share some historical accounts, my own experience (along with my Mum\u2019s), and some more recent accounts. Yes, they still do happen.<\/p>\n

What Do They Do?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

These Men-In-Black are mysterious strangers that often, but not always show up unannounced after close encounters, or sightings of UFO\u2019s, or even research they may be doing on UFOS. They know all about the person they are confronting. They know personal stuff about them that no one else may know. They know precisely where they were, and what they saw \u2013 even if the witness has not told another living soul.<\/p>\n

They reportedly attempt to threaten witnesses, and reporters of UFO encounters, and strange occurrences into silence \u2013 such as one incident in the Moth-man incident in the USA. They threaten dire consequences if the witness does not comply. There are reports of Men-In-Black following witnesses in black cars late at night, and terrifying them with threat-filled phone calls.<\/p>\n

They do this through intimidation, and coercion. Often threatening both the witness and their families into silence.\u00a0 Or intimating that they will harm them in some way. They confiscate any physical evidence the witness may have and then they suddenly depart, sometimes completely vanishing when they are on only a short distance away.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re sometimes thought of as a sort of “damage control”, because, it appears that their job is \u00ad\u00ad\u2013 or at least was, in the past, to contain and stifle information from getting out to the public. But that cat\u2019s pretty much out of the bag now.<\/p>\n

What Do They Look Like?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Generally, the Men-In-Black appearances all are roughly the same. And, certainly the ones I experienced as a child fitted right into the normal description of them. These men are reported as being male in form \u2013 however, not always. Nevertheless, they do always appear in groups of no less than two \u2013 generally three. They\u2019re dressed exactly the same way, with bland black suits, white or grey shirts, as well as a tie. Wearing black shoes and socks \u2013 sometimes said to be on the wrong feet. Like they don\u2019t know how to dress properly. \u00a0As well, they generally wear a black fedora hat, with sunglasses on. No matter what time of day or night.<\/p>\n

They are always described as being tall generally over six foot or one point eight metres tall. Dress wise they tend to look a lot like Agents J and K from the MIB movie franchise. The movie did follow that part of their description quite accurately. Their clothing has been described mostly as unrealistically neat and tidy, and wrinkle free. Despite that, sometimes their outfits appear quite soiled.\u00a0 They tend to appear in large black Cadillac\u2019s or Sedan type cars. Or the older type cars in earlier cases with running boards. The ones I saw certainly had a car with a running board on it \u2013 which fitted in with that era. I vividly remember the running board as a third MIB was standing with one foot on it.<\/p>\n

With their physical appearance they have been described variously as tall, but thin \u2013 generally anyway. \u00a0With the odd exception. Their skin can be anything from pasty white, looking like it is painted on, or plastic in appearance \u2013 sometimes with bright red lips (sometimes being painted in \u2013 as per one witness account) \u2013 to possessing an almost oriental appearance, or looking like a racially ambiguous Crypto-Asian type of appearance. Some reports have them looking almost Italian, Burmese, or Indian in appearance. Generally, they are bald, but sometimes have very, very fine whispy \u2013 and generally blond coloured hair. With often, no eyelashes.<\/p>\n

Some are said to walk with a quite unusual walking motion, sometimes moving like their hips are swivel joints \u2013 so they at times appear to produce a gliding or rocking effect. Often with their torsos, and legs seeming to move in opposite directions. Some witnesses say, the way they walk makes them appear intoxicated. Or, they walk in a very stilted and robotic sort of way. Like it is not natural for them to walk.<\/p>\n

Their speech can display normally, with accents from whatever country they appear in. Or, they have a very mechanical, mono-tone sounding voice \u2013 variously described as metallic, and even robotic in cadence and tone. Generally, they are facially, and vocally expressionless.\u00a0 Or they smile inappropriately \u2013 like they don\u2019t know how to do it properly. But most often give off a feeling of menace, very cold, and sinister in feeling. Like they mean to do you harm, or at the least, are a threat to you, and your family. Very intimidating. I know they certainly intimidated my mother.\u00a0 They are not above using scare tactics and intimidation to keep witnesses quiet about what they have witnessed. Generally knowing what the witness had seen, even if they had not told a soul about it, and warning them not to tell a soul.<\/p>\n

When they contact people they present like they are part of a secret organization \u2013 at times they will even show people a white card with the word security written on it. Often referring to each other by a number, rather than using a name. Therefore, they are often associated with the FBI, CIA, or some unnamed covert federal department \u00ad\u00ad\u2013 whose job is to seek out those individuals probing too close to the truth behind UFOs and scare them of. Some ufologists alarmingly postulate that the MIB are actually not of this Earth.<\/p>\n

All very mysterious indeed! \u00a0I am not here to speculate what they may or may not be. I will leave that up to you all to make up your own mind. I am merely here to present the information to you all. I personally know what I and my Mum both experienced, and really, that is all I can speak to.<\/p>\n

Here is a bit of the known and recorded background of the Men-In-Black in modern recorded times, please note that there are so many of them I am only including those I consider most interesting or different.<\/p>\n
