1967: The Cussac Aliens and the Children
Posted On: June 15, 2022

The Year was 1967. The place, Cussac, Cantal, France. Two children, a brother and sister, had a close encounter with a UFO and its occupants.


On August. 29th, 1967, Francois Delpeuch, a 13-year-old boy and Anne-Marie, his 9-year-old sister as well as their dog Medor had a close encounter.


At this time, the children observed a sphere-shaped UFO, 2 meters in diameter, and "four little devils" on the ground.


The craft was of a bright silvery color, and possessed landing gear consisting of three or four straight legs, equipped with round "shoes" 10 centimeters in diameter.


One of the humanoid beings was bending over, apparently busy with something on the ground, and another held a mirror-like object.


The creatures were "completely black", but with a shiny look which Francois compared to that of silk. The creatures were about 120 centimeters tall. The children could not be certain whether the color was that of the beings' skin, or of some sort of protective suit, for there was no visible dividing line between any possible clothing and the heads of the beings, which were bare.


If there was a protective suit of some kind, it was perfectly fitted. The arms were somewhat too long and thin. The children could not distinguish anything which might serve as hands. The legs were short and thin. The head seemed of normal proportions relative to the body, but the cranium, nose, and chin were equally pointed.


At some point, Francois called out, "Have you come to play with us?"


At this moment the small beings, who did not seem to be interested in the children, became aware that they were under observation. The first one took off vertically and then plunged head first through the top of the sphere. The second followed in the same way, and the third, after getting up, did likewise. The fourth also got up, but before diving into the machine, came down again and seemed to pick up the mirror from the ground.


After the craft flew away, the police were called.


The police noted a "sulfur odor and the dried grass" at the place where the sphere was alleged to have taken off.


The children's story is one of the reports of UFO sightings investigated by the French government made public in a mass release of documents in March 2007, which received so many hits on its first day that the site crashed.

My Take: It’s hard to say if this was a real event or just the imagination of children. The parents must have taken it seriously enough to call the police. The police also did not report any hints of the children changing their story.
