Informative Speech On Aliens
Aliens are some of the world’s most controversial creatures. It is also fair to say that they are one of the oldest controversies in the world. Although people from different cultures, religions, and parts of the world may call them different things, they all revolve around the same concept: strange people from different worlds visiting us. Sightings of aliens and other extraterrestrial beings have been reported for thousands of years, and are still numerous in today’s day and age.
Along with sightings of aliens have been sightings of UFO’s, or Unidentified Flying Objects, said to be spacecraft of extraterrestrial life-forms. The most common time to see UFO’s, according to the multiple sightings, is either in a car or from your home, when …show more content…
it’s dark and eerie.
Immediately after reports of UFO sightings began occurring, reports started surfacing of people being abducted by the spacecrafts. Reports of abductions usually contained gory stories of anorexic, big, black eyed, gray beings doing unethical experiments to human beings.
One of the oldest, and most infamous abduction stories is probably the Betty and Barney Hill abduction.
It took place in 1961, and the couple were on the road trip home from Canada. Betty saw a strange, bright light in the sky; but strange enough, there were no stars out besides it. The bright, star-like light was moving frantically- not the usual behavior of a star.
Betty made Barney stop, so that they could see it more clearly. Looking through binoculars, Barney saw what – when described – seemed to be many humanoid (human-like; 2 legs, 2 arms, standing on 2 feet) aliens.
Frightened, the couple drove away as fast as the car could go. They recall hearing two beeps, and then, in a daze, realized that they were over thirty miles from where they’d been originally. They then looked at the time, and noticed that somehow, the time was two hours later. Hadn’t it only been minutes before that they’d seen the beings? How could two hours have passed? The Hills believed they’d been abducted, and that the aliens had erased their memories. In the following years after the incident, the Hills appeared on numerous talk shows, and were made famous by the media. Betty was having strange dreams, and believed that they were of her experiences in the spacecraft. Both she and Barney drew many pictures of the aliens, the UFO, and even a star map that Betty claims she’d seen on the ship. The couple underwent many hypnosis sessions, to try to see if they’d really seen it, or if it was all just
hallucinations.
Hypnosis, as was used in the Betty and Barney Hill case, is very common in cases of possible abduction. Contrary to popular belief, hypnosis is not a deep sleep, or even a trance. It is actually the state between sleep and being awake. That little moment in time where your eyelids are slowly closing, and your not in the dream realm, but you’re pretty close. It’s a state where your mind is so relaxed, that all you want to do is please the person asking you questions. Hypnosis doesn’t make you tell the truth; you just answer questions. There’s nobody saying that you cannot lie under hypnosis, and many people do lie. The normal patient under hypnosis doesn’t know that they’re lying, if they do. They tell the truth – or at least what they believe to be the truth.
