During the early hours of a January night in 1975, 72-year-old George O’ Barski was driving home in New Jersey when a bizarre craft appeared out of the night sky and interrupted his journey near North Hudson Park. O’ Barski would witness several strange figures emerge from the craft, who then went about seemingly taking samples of the soil and vegetation. Eventually, after speaking of the incident several months later, investigations would discover several other witnesses to the strange events, as well as suggestions that something much more than a mere sighting took place.
The account appeared in several newspapers at the time and was also featured in the book Missing Time: A Documented Study of UFO Abductions by Budd ...

Very interesting as many other stories. Made me laugh when he got home and covered his head in bed with fear; but understandable especially the fact that many think we’re alone in this universe .
Bud Hopkins made a good investigation around and gathered alit of evidence from other people around. Thanks to him that these stories are given more light.
Thanks for sharing these too.
I remember reading this story while in college. That’s when I first heard of Budd Hopkins. I wasn’t a UFO enthusiast at the time, but the story made me think more seriously about just what may be out there that we humans may not be aware of. I absolutely believed O’Barski’s incident having happened. I actually knew where the park was and the liquor store, as I had a cousin who lived in that vicinity. She even mentioned back in the day that the weather was unusually warm and whoever thought to open their windows in January. We most definitely are not that special as humans to be the only living beings in the Universe, nor are we remotely close to being the most intelligent…
I miss Budd Hopkins’ accounts of these visitations. He gave credence to the fact that events involving beings from beyond our little solar system do indeed stop by from time to time.
