00:00Just as this happened in Montermoso, Bahía Blanca is not exempt from having a tradition linked to UFO phenomena.
00:08That's why we searched through the channel's archive, which was so meticulously compiled by our now retired colleague, Horacio "El Coto" Pascuarela.
00:17And we found this charming article in which journalist José Román Cachero interviews a man who tells...
00:26his way of being with an extraterrestrial.
00:29It came down standing up, from the sky, softly with a buzzing sound, with a strange, soft buzzing sound, very, very, very persistent, like that.
00:39And he went down and came walking, sliding his feet along, but he didn't lift them very high, almost as if he were dragging them.
00:48but they barely lifted them.
00:50And he sat down next to you and began to teach you things.
00:53Yes, I gave him a little stool and he didn't want to take the small stool and sat on a high stool.
00:58Then I realized it was because he had a very long-barreled pistol on his side.
01:03What did the man look like?
01:05He was taller than me, with a slightly longer face.
01:08Did he have hair?
01:10Yes, yes, I had hair.
01:11Was he like a normal, earthly being?
01:13Yes, hair that looked like silk wool, so fine.
01:16And what were their eyes like?
01:18Long eyes, like long, like I don't know, I've never seen that kind of person.
01:23I think I've seen it like that in Turkish women, I've seen it like that.
01:29And what language did he speak?
01:30He spoke Castilian Spanish, a rather rough Castilian; there were many words I couldn't understand.
01:36but of 20 words, a few, very laborious.
01:42Did he shake her hand?
01:43Yes, when he came he shook my hand.
01:44And what did you feel?
01:46Like a certain kick.
01:51A warm hand?
01:52No, no, the hand wasn't hot, it was a very soft, very squishy hand, but it felt like a kick.
02:00However, the most emblematic case linked to the UFO phenomenon in our city is worth remembering,
02:06the Dionisio Yanka case.
02:08It all began on the night of October 28, 1973.
02:13Dionisio Yanka was watching television at his uncle's house and at 0:30 he turned it off
02:18TV,
02:18He picks up his jacket and heads towards a Dodge truck parked about 8 blocks away,
02:24since he had to begin a long journey to Río Gallegos.
02:28Already on Route 3, 30 kilometers from Médanos,
02:32He notices that his rear tire is losing air.
02:35and decides to change it on the side of the road.
02:37It was approximately 1:30 in the morning.
02:41when suddenly he sees to his left in the direction of our city,
02:44Along Route 3, a yellowish light at a distance of about 2,000 meters.
02:48Thinking it was a car,
02:50He continues his task without paying further attention,
02:52But suddenly the light appeared behind him,
02:55above the treetops, illuminating everything around it.
02:59He froze.
03:01He feels them grabbing him by the back of his shirt,
03:04They spin him around and he encounters three beings approximately 1.85 meters tall,
03:10dressed in tight-fitting gray uniforms,
03:13long blonde hair, down to her shoulders, orange gloves and boots.
03:19One of the beings makes a kind of puncture in his right hand
03:23with a device similar to a razor, according to Yanka's description.
03:27From that moment on, the truck driver lost consciousness
03:30and remains amnesiac until Tuesday, October 30, 1973 at 10 p.m.
03:36when at the municipal hospital of Bahía Blanca,
03:39where he had been interned after being found by the patrol,
03:42who had gone out to look for him, begins to relate what had happened to him.
03:48The most emblematic case of the UFO phenomenon,
03:53that everyone here remembers, the one about the neighbor Dionisio Yanka.
03:57Thank you!
