Synopsis
Read case story
Amateur geologist Steve Michalak was prospecting near Falcon Lake, Manitoba, when he claimed to encounter a metallic UFO. Approaching the landed craft, he felt intense heat, smelled sulfur, and heard strange noises. When the object suddenly released a blast of hot gas from a vent, it burned his chest in a distinctive grid pattern. Michalak later experienced nausea, weight loss, and other symptoms, while investigators found radioactive metal fragments at the site. The Falcon Lake Incident remains one of Canada’s most famous and well-documented UFO cases, still unexplained today.
