An eyewitness account printed by Vecherny Sverdlovsk on November 29, 1968 , kick-started an inquiry into the longstanding rumors about some flying object that supposedly fell the earth earlier that year. The eyewitnesses claimed to have seen a “shining object in the shape of a disk” landing or falling onto a steep showy slope. The film shows Soviet soldiers aboard the all-terrain vehicles and APC’s arriving to the scene. The soldiers are seen to be combing the area. Then a general and two plainclothesmen (designated by TNT as KGB agents for some reasons) are seen to be giving orders to personnel in army uniform. The film shows a silvery shining object, a convex disk lying on its side in the show. The landing of an object did not melt any snow in the nearby area, no trees were damaged.

According to military experts interviewed by TNT, these days it would be rather preposterous for the KGB to make public a supposedly fake “intimidation propaganda” film designed for disinformation purposes in the Cold War era some 30 years ago. Pavel Klimchenkov, the owner of the original footage, claims that the KGB operation for the search and apprehension of an UFO was codenamed Mif (‘myth’ in Russia ). The viewer can see numerous KGB documents marked “top secret” saying that the operation was successfully completed.
The weirdiest part of the film shows an autopsy of the humanoid. The body of the extraterrestrial looks small and has grayish skin. His torso is very thin and his head resembles that of a monkey with eyes set deeply in the sockets. Anatomists are confident that the above characteristics are not typical for humans of any race or age.
A photocopy of the order by the Soviet defense minister looks authentic too. Pursuant to the order, General A. G. Ponomarnko, head commander of the Urals military district, was to ensure that KGB agents be involved in the work pertaining to the UFO at all stages. The agents’ reports were promptly forwarded to Colonel A. I. Grigoriev, chief of the KGB scientific department. It is noteworthy that Kamyshev, Savitski, and Gordienko – the coroners who performed a postmortem – all passed away on the same day, on March 24, 1969, one week after completing the examination of the humanoid’s body. The cause of their death is still unknown.
In September 1995, the U.S. media spread a similar story about the UFO allegedly captured by the authorities. The media accused the CIA of concealing the story for many years. The U.S. government officials denied the allegations by calling the whole story a hoax staged by ufologists. The pictures published in U.S. papers show a humanoid looking suspiciously very much like the Soviet creature from outer space.
Some scientists are pretty skeptical about the story told by the TNT film. At the same time, those scientists admit that the story contains too many pieces of information that look plausible. A clearer picture will be available after conducting a complex analysis of the original UFO footage and the KGB documents relevant to the case. Results of a medical inquiry into the cause of death of the coroners should be also taken into consideration.
