Fact Check:

A story in circulation online and some news outlets claims there’s a Real footage of an Autopsy on the popular Roswell Alien. An alleged grainy Image from it is also circulating from Ray Santilli, the man who presented the Alien Autopsy video in past. So, let us analyze whether the claims of real alien autopsy in Roswell back in 1947 are true or false.

About Roswell ‘Alien UFO’ Incident

From late 1970s UFOlogists claimed one or more Alien spacecrafts have crash-landed in mid-1947 at a ranch near Roswell of New Mexico Desert. They suggested conspiracy theories saying United States Military recovered the extraterrestrial occupants and covered it up later. In 1990s the US Military reported that the crash device was in fact a secret U.S. Nuclear test surveillance balloon from Project Mogul. Nonetheless, conspiracy theorists, hoaxers and UFOlogists continue to present ‘evidence’ of involvement of Aliens and UFOs in the Roswell crash. They said US government stored the flying saucer kind of object and alien dead bodies in a secret military base.

About Alien Autopsy Video

In 1995 Ray Santilli, a British musician, record, and film producer claimed he discovered footage of autopsy of an alien creature killed in a UFO crash in 1947 Roswell incident. Ray Santilli said a retired U.S. military cameraman supplied him the black and white alien autopsy film footage (shown below). Allegedly, he wanted to remain anonymous for privacy concerns. For about a decade, many people came to believe in the alien autopsy video. It aired on Fox television network and Television networks around the world talked about the ‘Alien’ find.

Elaborate Hoax

In later years, many people branded the 1995 footage of alien autopsy linked to the infamous Roswell crash incident as an elaborate hoax. In 2006 Ray Santilli and his fellow producer Gary Shoefield clarified their film is in fact a “reconstruction” of alien autopsy Santilli saw in 1992. Santilli also said they added “a few frames” from the original twenty-two rolls of film that had not degraded. They constructed the set in an empty flat in Rochester Square, London. Notably, the alien autopsy video was presented by Orbital Media, which was founded in 1995 by Ray Santilli himself. In following years and in late 2017, John Humphreys, the artist and sculptor who was employed to construct the two dummy alien bodies revealed he also played the role of the pathologist, hiding his identity within the contamination suit.

In response to those revelations, Ray Santilli said again the alien autopsy hoax was a “recreation” of genuine 1947 footage he obtained before the fake was made, but was of too poor quality to be screened. He also provided the grainy still image of Alien autopsy to Express.co.uk website, saying it was original one. Nonetheless, notice the screenshots from the hoax footage. The new image also appears like an edit coming from the old hoax footage, or is perhaps a photograph of the dummy alien not published.
