One of Poland’s Most Extraordinary Alien Encounters
Before dawn in Poland, a driver stopped for three figures he thought might need help. He said the stranger at his window then began communicating directly with his mind.On 11 August 2003, Lech Chaciński was driving to work in Szczecinek when an ordinary journey became the encounter he would describe for the rest of his life. Silver suits, strange questions about his car, a craft in a nearby field — and a warning he believed he had been asked to pass on.This Stories Lost episode follows his account through early television interviews, his own drawings, the investigation and filmed returns to the location. It is a remarkable story with an unusually personal aftermath. What do you make of it?The illustrated scenes are AI-assisted reconstructions. Archive interviews show Lech describing his experiences; they are not footage of the reported encounter. The account remains unverified.Subscribe and help Stories Lost reach 100,000 subscribers:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo7xcWPbM5ZVNz4sFpyE79A?sub_confirmation=1STORIES LOST TV & LIVE STREAMShttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo7xcWPbM5ZVNz4sFpyE79A/streamsSUPPORT STORIES LOSTBecome a member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo7xcWPbM5ZVNz4sFpyE79A/joinPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/StoriesLostThank you to our members, patrons and everyone who supports the channel through Super Thanks.CHAPTERS00:00 Three Figures Before Dawn01:12 The Driver and the Road to Work03:16 At the Car Window04:24 A Voice Without Words05:39 The Figures in Silver Suits07:03 The Belt and the Engine08:20 A Warning for Earth09:40 The Craft in the Field13:04 The Empty Road13:59 The Marks and the Calls to Police16:25 The Light in His Home17:00 The Investigation and Other Sightings19:06 Life After the Encounter20:14 Returning in 201321:06 Back at the Scene in 201622:12 The Message He Kept Repeating23:40 Credits and SupportersSOURCES & ARCHIVEGawex TV — early television interview, 2003, shared by Fundacja Nautilus:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rebrfIJcQuoFundacja Nautilus — return to the location, 11 August 2013:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtOHGM-0ysQFundacja Nautilus — return to the location, 11 September 2016:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN6LTWJU5J4Nancy Talbott / BLT Research Team — UFO Landing Trace = Cropcircle?

One of the Strangest Alien Contact Stories Ever Told | Koldas
An ordinary radio. A familiar voice. A friendship that became one of the most fascinating alien contact stories we've ever explored.This week on Stories Lost, we follow the extraordinary Koldas account: Edwin's friendship with a colleague called George, a farewell on a deserted South African beach, and the messages a small group believed were reaching them from another world.At the centre of the story is a modified receiver. Around it grew accounts of distant families, a confederation of planets, a Divine Creator, and even a war in space. We explore the book's diagrams and illustrations, hear excerpts from the recording associated with it, and listen to Carl van Vlierden describe his own experiences.It is a remarkably rich account—but what does the surviving evidence actually establish? We also examine the gaps, the contradictions, and the difference between a witness's testimony and independent confirmation. As always, the final judgment is yours.🔹 The colleague who called himself Valdar🔹 The radio, the roof aerial and the alleged beam from above the house🔹 The recorded messages and Carl van Vlierden's recollections🔹 Life on Koldas, a Creator, and reports of conflict🔹 The witnesses, the questions and the missing evidence📺 STORIES LOST TV — watch our 24/7 stream:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULa8pYPuOHsHelp us reach 100,000 subscribers.

The Melting Men of Finland | Short Cases
A truck driver has a strange passenger sitting beside him. She says something in her head has stopped working—and she has brought another one for him to fit.This week on Stories Lost, we return to Short Cases with five unusual encounter accounts from Japan, Sweden, Denmark and Finland. The theme is Almost Human: familiar faces and human shapes that become stranger the closer the witnesses look.A woman beside a Swedish road whose body seems to give way under a man's hand. Two tiny, faceless figures gesturing beside a drain in Denmark. A visitor outside a Finnish cottage who looks like a friend—until that friend is seen sitting inside. Beings that appear to be thawing in the cold. And a passenger in a Japanese truck who needs help replacing her own head.🔹 Carl-Axel Jonzon's encounter in Avesta🔹 The small, ribbed figures known as the Nivå mummies🔹 Pekka's familiar-looking visitor in Kuusamo🔹 Hannu and the melting figures of Koskenkorva🔹 Yuji Fukuda's extraordinary account near Uno Port🕰 Chapters00:00 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q) – A Passenger with a Spare Head00:44 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=44s) – Almost Human: Five Short Cases01:31 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=91s) – The Woman by the Road — Avesta, Sweden03:10 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=190s) – A Body Like Rubber04:57 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=297s) – The Nivå Mummies — Denmark07:39 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=459s) – The Stranger Who Looked Like a Friend — Kuusamo09:28 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=568s&pp=0gcJCWMAwfN6Pr3D) – The Face Begins to Change11:27 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=687s) – The Melting Figures — Koskenkorva15:16 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=916s) – Hannu Describes His Encounter16:13 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=973s) – The Passenger in the Truck — Japan, 197419:03 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=1143s) – Three Yellow Buttons19:17 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=1157s) – Replacing Her Head21:27 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=1287s) – The Missing Twenty Minutes22:39 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=1359s) – Five Encounters, Familiar Shapes23:45 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=1425s) – Outro and Thanks24:15 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04CDbUllS-Q&t=1455s) – Members and PatronsThis episode follows the witnesses' accounts as preserved in reports and interviews.
