One of the most detailed stories ever heard belonged to a 23 year old Brazilian farmer named Antonio Boas. In the night between the 15th and 16th October, 1957 he was driving his tractor when he saw a bright light heading towards him. He was caught by aliens coming from inside the UFO. The aliens were 1.5 meters tall and they were wearing grey suits. They had big helmets and pipes were coming out of them. The farmer was taken aboard and he was stripped naked while they took blood samples. He said that the aliens were trying to communicate with him with soft screams which were not very clear.
