Researchers have suggested the Shag Harbour UFO incident up in Canada, which occurred in 1967 to largely non-skeptical reports from Canadian mass media at the time; the media wanted residents in the area to cooperate with authorities, and so a skeptical outlook on something that was being actively sought after would have been counterproductive.

Near Shag Harbour, Nova Scotia — a small fishing and sea town — in October 1967 a large, glowing UFO crashed into the Atlantic Ocean, just off the coast of the town, and many residents reported a loud bang or crash before the object sank.

Aside from resident reports and intense interest from Canadian and American government authorities, the UFO’s presence at the time was corroborated by Air Canada Flight 305, enroute to Toronto. Records show the first officer pointed out to the pilot an object moving parallel to their course a few miles off. They recorded a silent explosion near the UFO minutes later, just as residents on the ground reported the crash into the water.

Canadian divers staged a search and rescue attempt, and the Canadian Air Force was also interested in recovering something “concrete” from the event, yet the official report claims no debris or survivors or other signs of the craft were ever recovered from the sea floor.

Some researchers compare the 1967 Shag Harbour UFO event to America’s Roswell, New Mexico incident two decades prior, in July 1947 — a downed UFO and possible alien survivors were later explained by authorities and the press in the region at the time as nothing more than charred weather balloons, and bad optics. Yet some witnesses would contest the official explanation for decades, believing a coverup had occurred in their small town and that a military search & rescue had whisked away all evidence before the public could properly look it over.
