I didn't believe in UFO's till the 24 of july in 1999. There were many strange things going on. A Fire-ball, a strange vehicle in the water, a sighting by a fisherman, strange activity of the navy and a weird light travelling through the Dutch sky. I know, my English language isn't very good, but I wanto to share this with all of you. The Beginning I was working on the isle Texel nearby the Dutch city Den Helder, a city with a marine-base. (The Dutch Navy) When we arrived on the isle there were strange things happening in Den Helder. A paper wrote about a Russian ice-breaker witch had a collision with a strange waterthing. The marineship was badly damaged, but the thing dissapeared from the rader. It wasn't a fish. The Dutch authorities wrote an official warning about a thing in the Dutch Waddenzee (Waddensea) Ball of fire We were looking on the dike of the isle of Texel in Holland. A girl had seen there a ball of fire above the water. The thing was hanging above the water and dissapeared very fast into heaven. We laughed, but she said it was true. Then whe went with eight persons tot the dike. Three marine-ships When we arrived there were suddenly tree Marine-ships lying in the water. A kilometer away from the dike. That was very strange because there hadn't a marine-ship for years. Strange light A ten minutes later one of my friends said: "Look at that" he pointed at the sky. There was a light little bit bigger en brighter as a star travelling at high speed from east to west through the sky. (two friends of mine with good eyes said the light excisted out of three little lights ) Two times the thing stood suddenly still and on his flight it shaked/danced through the sky, "It just like the driver is drunk" one of us said. The thing dissapeared with a little flash. After the light dissapeared the marine-ships also dissapeared. The day after our seeing the marine was flying with helicopters the whole day. A man from the island denied it was a military action because they have to announce that in the paper. Dutch papers Also in the Dutch papers there were people who had seen strang lights. A Dutch fisherman had seen also a strange light above the water. The Dutch-paper kwalified this light as a sea-ufo. Strange photographs Two friends of mine made some photographs the other day. On the pictures there were strange lights. When my friends took the photo's there was nothing to see.
