The mysterious case of Dr. Freitas Guimarães

Summary

In 1956, professor Joao de Freitas Guimaraes, a lawyer and university lecturer, had an unforgettable experience when he encountered an unidentified flying object. According to his testimony, while having dinner on the beach, he was approached by a craft that took him aboard. There, he observed three crew members and noted that the water he drank was of unknown origin, filtered through an advanced device. The lawyer described dark and bright zones in space and mentioned that the craft used magnetic forces to move.

During the journey, he asked about the beings' origin but received no answer. Upon returning, he discovered his watch had stopped, although he estimated the time spent in the flight was 30 to 40 minutes. The crew promised a new meeting on August 12, 1957, at the same place and time. This story, recounted years later, remains an intriguing UFO mystery.
