IN THIS EPISODE: Stories of people in the past looking to the skies to see UFOs are becoming more and more common as we learn more of our history. But there was some very strange goings on in 1896 and 1897 with some flying contraptions, weird looking people, bizarre languages, and even a close encounter of the third kind. (America\\u2019s Mystery Airships of 1896-97) *** From UFOs in 1896-97\\u2026 to UFOs in 1966-67. But this time we add another element. Not only did a young man see a UFO, but the encounter appears to have taken him outside of time \\u2013 and even changed his personality in the process! (Missing Time in 1966) *** In Blake Edward\\u2019s 1965 classic comedy film, \\u2018The Great Race\\u2019, the heroic Leslie and the despicable Professor Fate, engage in an epic automobile race from New York to Paris in the early 1900s. The film is actually based on a real race that took place in 1908 \\u2013 and as hilarious as the \\u2018The Great Race\\u2019 movie was, the actual race took stupidity to a whole new level. (The Great Race to Stupidity)
