NARRATOR: November 2004--
100 miles off the coast of San Diego, a group of US warships
are conducting routine training exercises
when they detect a number of unidentified flying
objects near Catalina Island.
They were picking up multiple targets on the radar system,
but they had a new system they were testing.
So the theory was that it was just glitches.
So they rebooted.
But sure enough, these targets showed up again,
and this goes on for a series of some days.
And then, they vectored jets to go and investigate.
NARRATOR: As Navy F-18 fighter jets approach the area where
the UFOs have been detected on radar,
the pilots see a white oval-shaped object
that has no wings and resembles a giant Tic-Tac.
Then suddenly, it rapidly descends 80,000 feet
in less than a second and hovers above the surface of the water.
Naval Officer Ryan Weigelt was stationed
on the nearby USS Princeton on the day of the encounter.
I was called to the bridge by the CO.
And when I got up to the bridge, the whole office
was much more crowded and chaotic than normal.
People were raising their voice on seeing some of the things
that they were seeing.
It was a very excited atmosphere.
I noticed that to my left hand side
was a video monitor where the flare footage was being
fed in to the Princeton, so I could
see what the jets were seeing.
On my right hand side, I am watching them
on a radar screen that gives information on altitude
and speed and heading.
And seeing what I saw, it's impossible for anything
that we own or have created to withstand the G-Forces that
would be created from doing any type of thrust
like what this Tic-Tac was doing.
Two of the pilots involved in the Tic-Tac Incident,
Commander David Fravor and Lieutenant Commander Alex
Dietrich, have stated that under the infamous Tic-Tac,
there was an area of water that was roiling as if there was
this object under the waves.
And this object was about the size of a Boeing 737.
NARRATOR: Navy eyewitnesses have reported that the Tic-Tac was
moving erratically above the surface of the water,
as though it appeared to be interacting
with the unidentified object located beneath the waves.
Moments later, the Tic-Tac made a series
of seemingly impossible maneuvers
to evade the Navy jets before accelerating away
at thousands of miles per hour.
And the pilots claim that when they tried
to get a second look at the underwater object,
it had somehow vanished.
I am a person who needs to see to really believe.
And seeing what I saw during that time frame,
I think any rational minded person would be somewhat
alarmed that there is this technology out there
that is far superior to us.
That technology isn't something we have.
So if not us, who or what?
And what we're hearing about now is just the tip of the iceberg.
There have been consistently a lot
of reports of unidentified objects under the ocean.
People have seen them from the shore going into the sea
and coming out of the sea.
We've all heard of UFOs because they
fly in our atmosphere.
But what happens if they can hit the oceans and go underwater?
These are USOs.
Unidentified submerged objects are objects
that have the ability to plunge right into the ocean
and disappear.
This is something that we cannot duplicate with our technology,
and so these objects are of very intense interest,
because it means that a new technology is being harnessed
by some unknown party.
They could be even perhaps extraterrestrial.
NARRATOR: Extraterrestrial USOs flying into
and out of the world's oceans?
For some, that may sound like something
out of science fiction.
But curiously, more than a decade
after the Tic-Tac Incident, the United States Navy
continues to detect USOs off the coast of Southern California.
In July of 2019, Navy aircraft flying in the same area
recorded video which appears to show
an unidentified flying object disappearing into the ocean.
What's really interesting about this
is that all this is happening in a fairly
small geographical area.
So you've got a series of encounters happening
off the coast of San Diego.
To have all this going on in a very concentrated spot,
one has to say, is this just a coincidence
or is there a connection?
