Crashed UFO Photographed in Brazil

Tuesday December 5, 2006
Just yesterday, I received a report from Brazilian UFO Magazine's editor, A. J. Gevaerd informing me of a photograph of an alleged UFO which was being transported on a semi-truck. Supposedly, this UFO was recovered from a crash in Brazil. Gevaerd received his information from Francisco Baqueiro, who resides in the state of Bahia. Baqueiro, a psychologist and therapist, had photographed the disc-shaped object with his cell phone camera on November 21, at precisely 07:16 AM.

Baqueiro had received inside information on the movement of the UFO from an informant who works in Brazilian intelligence. The informant also said that he was privy to knowledge of a UFO crash in Reconcavo Baiano, Bahia, which lies south of the capital city of Salvador. Supposedly, the object was being taken to the city of Feira de Santana. Baqueiro was lying in wait for the truck with UFO to go by, and he eventually took the photo shown here by pretending to be making a call. The truck was being escorted by the Federal Police. Baqueiro tried to gain entrance into a gas station that the truck and Federales stopped at, but was prevented from doing so by the authority of the Police.

He later returned to the station to talk to employees, but they were very tight lipped about the object, and had obviously been told to say nothing about it. The fact that the object was transported without cover has brought many comments, and there are several theories being discussed about that and also the suggestion that the object is only a cover for oil tanks or water tanks. The object was so large that the truck had to travel the two lane road in the middle, and the UFO still scraped trees and other vegetation along the side of the highway. Also it has been said that if the object, being so large, had been moved under a large cover, even more attention would have been drawn to it. There is still a lot to be learned about this incident, and only more details will tell us what really happened. I will certainly post more information as I receive it.

I am very skeptical about this photo. The object on the truck could be anything from a large tank end-closure to a dish antenna. I strongly doubt that a suspected UFO would be transported out in the open just lying on a flatbed truck like that. Additionally, there does not seem to be any indication of damage to the object, and no evidence of the supposed federal escort is seen.

Latin American countries do seem to be much more open about UFO matters, but any government which would come into possession of such an advanced piece of hardware would take great pains to keep it under wraps. My opinion at this point is that either the photographer is sincere but sorely mistaken, or he/she is trying to pass off a mundane picture as an authentic photo of a UFO.

The photo looks more like a giant dish for radio or radar reception, however, it is hard to judge its hieght as well as any other features are not visible that may identify it.
I do not see anyevidence of the brackets that would be required to hold such a dish in place though…
As usual more info is required to make a definitive judgement.
a follow up is imperative if we are to make any sense of the report.

Subject oil water or water cover all your commits are wrong fore as an engineer working on all types of well covers what your looking at is not what you think it is. As far as UFO well I give it a questionable unknown fore as a reader it is to open to the public it to me is either a roof fore a grainer or a cover fore a shillow.

I am from Brazil. My opinion is: it is a fake or a mistake, not a crashed flying saucer! Unfortunately, pseudofacts like this are abundant in Internet and in global media. A detail: I am an ufologist.

I think anything can happen a its possible because there a a million galaxies and if one planet out of this galaxy has life forms on it then its possible that at least one planet out of any of the other billion galaxies has life forms. And they probably have ufos as a way of transport. those other people have their oppinion but when they say that this is bull and other stuff like that then their bull……..

I think photos ? 10% possible but if so real ?IF even only 1 photo is real how if aleins are real and so very advanced to have come to earth why do they crash at all? My theory is not to them or their technology at all maybe they were doing somthing horrible to ?someone?and THEY decided to cause a crash affecting the ship somehow?something to chew on later!

It has been known for years that Germany was the inventor of the flying disks. The disks where original powered by mercedes benz disel engines. The disks were intended by Hilter for war use but never came to be since the field the engines produce. The disk are now manufactured in brazil. The disk normally land on a platform so that the disk can retain power. The older model disk had three struts which where produced by BMW. This allowed the craft to lift off immediately. Unfortunely the secret is out. The disks everyone have been seeing are not from outer space by made right here on earth. Go do some research on the subject. It is not as big of secret as you might want to believe. There are a ton of post with digrams and blueprints of germany’s flying disks. The disks are real but not from outerspace.

Google Vril Disk and you see what is out there for you. Pictures plans, everything. See for yourself. Not Aliens just plain old earth people. Vril Disks have been around since 1915. The Russians recovered a disk in I believe 1945 and there are pictures of it on the web. Wow what a discovery so why is it so hard to believe that other countries don’t have disks.
