\"\"Our special guest this evening on Amerika Now is Travis Walton.\u00a0 Travis is the author of the best-selling book, Fire in the Sky<\/em>, and is also the subject of the hit movie by Paramount Pictures by the same title (Fire in the Sky<\/em>).<\/p>\n

On November 5, 1975, a group of loggers in the mountains of northeastern Arizona observed a strange, unusually bright light in the sky.\u00a0 One of those men, Travis Walton, recklessly left the safety of their truck to take a closer look.\u00a0 Suddenly, as he walked toward the light, Travis was blasted back by a bolt of mysterious energy.<\/p>\n

His companions fled in fear.\u00a0 When they reported an encounter with a UFO–something they would have considered impossible if they had not witnessed it themselves–the men were suspected of murder.\u00a0 For five days authorities mounted a massive manhunt in search of Walton, or his body.\u00a0 Then Travis reappeared, disoriented and initially unable to tell the whole story of his terrifying encounter.<\/p>\n

Travis Walton’s experience of alien abduction is one of the best-documented accounts ever recorded.\u00a0 It is the story of his harrowing ordeal at the hands of silent captors and his return to a disbelieving world of hostile interrogators, exploitative press, and self-styled “debunkers.”\u00a0 Travis will speak about his struggle to get a fair hearing, and how he confronted his detractors with a stinging rebuttal in his book.<\/p>\n

Listen to the real<\/em> story behind the hit movie, as we welcome Travis Walton to the show.<\/p>\n

\"\" “It was many years ago that I got out of a crew truck in the national forest and ran toward a large glowing object hovering in the darkening Arizona sky.\u00a0 But when I made that fateful choice to leave the truck, I was leaving behind more than just my six fellow workmen.\u00a0 I was leaving behind forever all semblance of a normal life, running headlong toward an experience so overwhelmingly mind-rending in its effects, so devastating in its aftermath, that my life would never–could never–be the same again.”\u00a0 -Travis Walton<\/p>\n
