D611(RS): On 7 January 1970 two skiers in a forest at Imjarvi, Finland, encountered a hovering UFO that projected a light beam downwards, in which appeared a thin, 3 foot tall creature carrying a black box emitting a yellow light. Its face was pale, with a hooked nose, and on its head was a conical shining helmet. Colourful sparks from the box hit one of the men, and after the UFO disappeared, he fell ill and exhibited unusual symptoms for a long time afterwards, perhaps indicating contact with some kind of radiation.
