## Resource

On 6 April 1966, hundreds of students and teachers at Westall High School in Melbourne, Australia, reportedly witnessed something extraordinary in the sky above their school. Nearly sixty years later, the Westall incident remains one of Australia’s most famous UFO cases, with witnesses still describing strange craft, incredible movement, possible landing traces at The Grange, and a response from authorities that left many with more questions than answers. In this special episode, I share witness testimony from Grant Lavac’s The Unexplained Rundown: The Westall Witnesses, featuring people who were there that day and still remember what they saw. What did the students see above Westall? Why were they allegedly told not to talk about it? And why does this case continue to fascinate researchers decades later? This episode contains witness audio from The Unexplained Rundown, used to help revisit and preserve one of the most important mass UFO sightings in Australian history. https://www.youtube.com/@TheUnexplainedRundown 🔥 Support the show & get bonus content: 🛸 YouTube Memberships: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHw9Lru3EcpRQyM7AI5TlmA/join 🛸 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/ThatUFOPodcast 🛸 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/that-ufo-podcast/id1511121397 🛸 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7wnXUAQ3vwdsX1BoyaEvjZ 🛸 Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ThatUFOPodcast 📲 Connect with the show: Twitter: @UFOUAPAM Facebook, Instagram & YouTube: That UFO Podcast YouTube: YouTube.com/c/ThatUFOPodcast Email: UFOUAPAM@gmail.com All links: https://linktr.ee/ufouapam Official Website: ThatUFOPodcast.com 👍 Don’t forget to subscribe, like & leave a review — it really helps!
