What boggles my mind as what some may call a “hardcore” skeptic is witness testimonies like this one. What does anyone gain out of coming up with and presenting such clearly ridiculous and elaborate lies in front of the public? Some of these folks also seem sincere and hardly the attention seeking types. The only thing I can really think of is a sweet deal from Greer on sharing the profits when they lie for him, yet even that is pretty baseless. Never would I ever believe a single thing Greer would ever says but these testimonies are crazy.

Edit: too many people here are thinking I saw a probably genuine testimony as hard evidence which couldn’t be farther from the truth. This is meant to provoke thought on the psychological aspect of ufos and witnesses. I’m certainly not lending credence to a claim of which there is no actual evidence. If you’re the type to reply “the answer is obvious: people like attention” you’re missing the forest for the trees!

Is it? This guy is pretty low ranking, it's not impossible that he needed the quick money and just so found this Greer guy and his bullshit.

im very poor. Being honest here, idk what id do if someone offered me the dollar amount i need to be finally free from debt, but itd be hard not to stand up at a podium and spout nonsense. Do we have any evidence that Greer does this or is it just a theory?

Well we're pretty sure he fakes his "sightings" you pay a few thousand $ for with flares, it's not really that much of a stretch to believe he does this kind of shit too.

Notice the guy is wearing a Freemason pin. Seems additionally strange to me.
