The Turkey UFO Case Podcast


Kate’s guest is Ryan Shane dis­cussing the Turkey UFO case.
The Kum­burgaz, Turkey UFO sight­ings of 2007–2009

The Kum­burgaz, Turkey UFO inci­dent involves sev­eral wit­nesses who live in the local vil­lage, exten­sively ana­lyzed video, a report by the Sci­en­tific and Tech­nol­ogy Research Board of Turkey (which is spon­sored by the gov­ern­ment), video show­ing uniden­ti­fied fly­ing objects filmed at extremely close range, and was wit­nessed by Dr. Roger Leir in per­son. The Turkey UFO sight­ings were much more than your typ­i­cal light in the sky. The inci­dents were dra­matic. For sev­eral days disc, metal­lic spheres, round, and oval shaped unknown craft vis­ited the Sea of Mar­mara just off the coast of Kum­burgaz, Turkey. 

Roger Leir wit­ness the UFOs from the shore with 7 to 8 other peo­ple. Lis­ten to him describe what he saw in the fol­low­ing audio record­ings. Wit­ness Roger Leir Audio Interviews

2007 Video Footage

Things We Know:

- The video was taken on 25 seper­ate dates between 2007 and 2009

- At the time there were no oil rigs, light­houses, or boats in the field of view.

- Almost all of the seg­ments were taken from the shore­line near Kum­burgaz and filmed fac­ing out towards the sea. The objects were sev­eral feet above the sea sur­face and at a sub­stan­tial dis­tance from the cam­era. Not as close as it may appear.

- The cam­era was a MiniDV Canon DM-GRI-A based on the NTSC sys­tem with a diaphragm set at the max­i­mum of 1.8. It’s a 3CCD 20x optic 100x with a tele-converter mounted on a 58mm adapter. Tele-objective is a Sony brand vci hgd 1758 model lens, x 1.7.

- The Sci­en­tific and Tech­nol­ogy Research Board of Turkey “TUBIAK”  and the Astron­omy depart­ment of Turkey ana­lyzed the orig­i­nal MiniDV cas­sette.. They released their 2 page report and doc­u­ments and also appeared on Turk­ish news. You can read about it here:

- Other photo ana­lysts from Japan, Rus­sia, and Chile have gone over the cas­settes frame by frame. After sev­eral attempts so far nobody has been able to suc­ces­fully debunk the footage.

- I have had dis­cus­sions with Dr. Bruce Mac­cabee and after review­ing the tapes he does not get the feel­ing that the video tapes are a hoax. Bruce has said this pub­licly as well. How­ever Bruce has no idea what it actu­ally is and has not ruled out other pos­si­bil­i­ties.

- For ref­er­ence I have doc­u­mented all the research at this web­site. http://turkeyufocase.blogspot.com/- The videos show sil­ver round, disc, and cigar shaped objects which maneu­ver and hover over the sea sev­eral feet in the air. The video was recorded with a cam­era that had a tele-converter adapter capa­ble of film­ing at 200 times opti­cal achiev­ing a great amount of detail. The Sci­en­tific and Tech­nol­ogy Board of Turkey and TUG National Obser­va­tory reviewed the footage attempt­ing to prove a hoax but were unsuc­cess­ful. The film has been stud­ied by experts from Japan, Chile, Brazil, and Rus­sia. After sev­eral attempts nobody has been able to suc­cess­fully debunk the videos. To the cur­rent date they remain uniden­ti­fied.- Roger Leir is a first hand wit­ness in 2008 and 2009 he was stand­ing only feet from the cam­era even look­ing through the viewfinder. He was present with 7 to 8 other peo­ple in 2009 and all of them claim it was the “real deal” not a bal­loon, and not a model. He has done 5 to 6 inter­views describ­ing in-depth his per­sonal expe­ri­ence. I see no rea­son at all that Dr. Leir would cook up such a big hoax and risk his lifes work study­ing “implants”. He is not the type of per­son who would do some­thing like that.

After con­tin­ued video analy­sis and research it shows that the Kum­burgaz, Turkey UFO case so far has passed the smoke test.

It gets bet­ter,In Addi­tion:

In some cases peo­ple reported see­ing “the occu­pants” or “fig­ures” stand­ing in the craft and some of the video analy­sis was able to show what might be “humanoids” of some type inside the craft.If you are inter­ested in see­ing these images you can view them at this web­site http://archivosovni2.blogspot.com/Ryan Shanehttp://turkeyufocase.blogspot.com/Full Photo Set of Sin­gle Frame Slides2009 Video Footage2008 Video Footage Part 12008 Video Footage Part 2



But the video is that makes this case amaz­ing and should be stud­ied by top UFO researchers.

Murat was using a 300 mm lens and an elec­tronic dou­bler which allowed him to zoom in extremely close, which got extremely close views of the objects. so close that some­times port­holes or win­dows can be seen.

  2. These videos are amaz­ing! Is the noise com­ing from the 2008 video footage com­ing from the craft, sea or wind?

    Also, was there any move­ment from the enti­ties cap­tured on the videos?
