I've sailed around the world, I've seen a lot of clear skies.
I've seen satellites which are kind of spooky, weather balloons, stray aircraft.
The only time I ever saw a UFO, I was stoned on ecstasy.
>> [LAUGH].
>> What did it look like?
It looked like a great big north,
like brighter than the north star was right on the horizon.
Then I tried to avoid it with steered around it and it kept following me and
I went back the other way and the Bahama banks, it was right in front of me.
It just tracked me everywhere I went.
>> I think he might still be stoned on ecstasy as he says
that he's sailed around the world.
I guess I'd buy that.
He's had a pretty interesting life, but
he thought he saw a UFO and his first thought was to steer his
boat away from the UFO that's on the water or something.
How did he think that was gonna go?
Like if they wanted you, if another life form from a different part of the galaxy
had traveled all this way to get Geraldo, they're going to get Geraldo buddy,
no matter how you steer your sailboat or whatever.
Anyway, Jessica, this all came about as a result of the conversation about
the military's UFO database that's been worked on.
They had had something like 143 different reports a year ago now they
have 400 reported incidents with UFOs and
I guess when you're on a show like the five, you've got to say something.
So his, I was stoned on ecstasy thing, fulfills that obligation.
What do you think?
>> Yeah, I mean we could be talking about how we're spending public resources on
researching UFOs when people are struggling to get food to feed their
babies, people are struggling to have housing.
It's like you guys could just talk about this at a slumber party.
I don't know if we need a House Intelligence Committee looking into UFOs,
I don't know if they have the technical expertise or
the technology to come to any meaningful conclusions.
>> Wait a second, hold on now, I don't have a strong opinion about this,
which is the way that I interrupted you would imply that I do.
But, I don't want a lot of money to be spent on it.
But you don't think that the government should ever look into the possibility?
>> No, I think they should, but probably not the House Intelligence Committee,
there's gotta be a better agency to look into this than our elected
officials sitting around and talking about It.
Imagine how the conversations, when they were asking questions about Facebook,
Richard Blumenthal saying, do you commit to Banff Insta,
I'm just not confident they'll have a meaningful discussion about UFOs that
will get us anywhere to figure out where they're coming from.
>> Yeah, if they don't get sock puppet accounts,
I don't trust them on the warp drive thing.
I think that's probably a good point.
I do want there to be someone, I don't know if it's the X Files or
what I want someone looking at this because I definitely believe that there
is alien life.
I don't think it's likely that they've come here.
If they did they probably stayed very briefly and then left never to return.
I think someone should be looking at it.
I think you are right.
I don't trust anybody that would include Louie Gohmert to
look into intelligent life.
You should have to have intelligent life on the panel to look into it.
Anyway, I will let you know the substance of this is that after all
of this investigation they haven't uncovered anything.
They considered non terrestrial in origin.
Although there are incidents they can't explain,
possibly because some of the people doing the reporting were stoned on ecstasy.
How much information could you have?
And none of the documented objects have attempted to communicate with US aviators
and no attempt has been made to communicate with them.
All appeared to be unmanned as much as you could make
a determination about a spot of light on the horizon.
So I don't expect much to come out of this at the very least publicly.
Any other thoughts?
>> No I think that's a good headline.
House Committee searches for intelligent life.
>> It comes up short.
