The BOLs: Real Mystery of the UFOs

By Robert K. Lesniakiewicz (CBZA)

During my all ufological active life I have researched many UFO-incidents, which occurred in Poland and Slovakia. After the 30-years-long work I have come to a conclusion that only the Ball of Lights – BOLs – are a real mystery. Another UFOs were quite possible to explain by ufologists and scientists as well as various secret military machines, rare natural phenomena, usual things seen in unusual circumstances, and so on. I examined above 112 various UFO-cases and realized that 14 of them were connected to the BOL cases. I described them in my work “UFO nad granica” (“UFOs Above Borderland”), Krakow 2000, and in my another work “Projekt Tatry” (“Project Tatra Mts.”), Krakow 2002. Those incidents took their places as follows:

1. The small village of Milowka (49°33’35”N - 019°o5’19”E) became very famous thanks to the two Golec Brothers and their Golec uOrkiestra, which is the music band very well known in Poland. The BOLs were seen there two times in the nights around 5 January 1957. Unfortunately, nobody could give me more detailed information. The BOL triple formation emitting red light was seen by tourists of Warsaw, who later informed the press about that. I brought this info from the Bible of the Polish ufologists – the “Goscie z Kosmosu – NOL” (“Guests of Space – UFOs”) by Lucjan Znicz-Sawicki (1922-2004). The BOLs did not leave traces on the snowy surface.

2. The next BOL-sighting took its place in the Lodygowice village (49°44’01”N - 019°08’13”E) a countryside spreading between the Zywiec and Bielsko-Biala towns, not so far from the Milowka. In the dark evening on 25 January 1958 many villagers and passengers of the local train watched for the red luminous BOL flying above mountains and enlightening their tops with red light. The phenomenon lasted a couple of minutes and the relation about it is told from a father to a son in this village. The UFO did not leave any traces.

3. The BOL was also seen over a town of Zakopane (49°17’59”N - 019°57’31”E), where the CE2 took its place on 17 January 1979. In a early morning several hundreds of the Zakopane inhabitants watched for a very bright BOL, which moved very slowly in the sky from East to West. The BOL was firstly saw by the Police Officer Antoni Schreder (+2003), who photographed it with his camera. He took 36 frames. They were sent to analyze in the Provincial Police HQ in Krakow (Cracow). Another witness was in that time in a building of the local water power plant in Kuznice. The BOL passed over the power plant and switched off its all generators! It lasted a couple of second. The witness – Mr. Jozef Kois (+2000) stated that the BOL roared like ‘a jet plane on a runway’. The next witness Dr. Magdalena Rubis MD saw something like a big and red ball flew above the Tatra Mts. These people were showed in two TV films made by the provincial TV station in Krakow. They were emitted by the TVP-3 Krakow channel.

4. Next incidents with the BOLs were in the Northern Poland. The first one took its place on an area of the Baltic Sea marked as the Tango Uniform Five fishing area. The TU5 area is very close the Polish-Soviet (now Russian) border and the nearest Polish shore is placed 70 km (37.8 nautical miles) far from a scene of this incident. On 23 August 1979, two Polish fish-boats: HEL-125 and HEL-127 were literally attacked by the red gloving BOL. The witnesses saw firstly two Soviet trawlers TUG-type and one ordinary cargo vessel. Both crews watched a something similar to the red buoy, which repeated the all HEL-127’s movements to keep in a front of this fish-boat! In that time the crewmen felt themselves very bad. They suffered from nauseas, headaches, pain in their chests and had trouble with a breath. In the same time the all radios, compasses, radars and other devices went off. After a few minutes the ‘buoy’ disappeared and the both boats went back to their base in Hel.

The crewmen were examined by doctors of the Polish Navy Hospital. They did not find anything bad in their bodies. Famous Polish ufologist Mr. Bronislaw Rzepecki states that there could be five possible explanations:
1. a piece of the space ‘trash’;
2. a meteorite;
3. a helicopter with switched its lights off;
4. a new Sowiet psychological weapon;
5. UFO.

Now I think that the Polish crewmen were used by Soviets as the experimental rabbits. In fact, they had this kind of weapons in 1970s. It was confirmed by them during the Bioinformenergo ’89 conference, which took its place in Moscow on 29.11 – 02.12.1989.

5. In a couple of days, on 5 September 1979 in the Tropy Sztumskie village (53°57’04”N - 019°11’39”E) at 03:45 hrs an ambulance was stopped at by the BOL, which blocked a road during 20 minutes. After that time it vanished. There were 6 witnesses, who watched that BOL: crewmen of the ambulance and pregnant woman and two other women employed by the Polish Railways. This incident was broadly commented in the Polish TV.

6. Other incident with the BOL occurred in Szczawnica (49°25’17”N - 020°29’25”E) in June 1980. One Jordanow inhabitant Mrs. Elzbieta B. (data reserved) saw a BOL, which flew 70 meters beside her. It went from Poland to Slovakia. It lasted about 2 minutes and witness stated that during that two minutes she was felt like she was paralyzed. When the BOL disappeared behind the Mt. Hulina in Slovakia, she regained herself and could move. This CE2 left a trace in her mind.

7. In a decade 1980’s several incidents with BOLs happened to some children living in Wysoka at Jordanow – a village 5 km far from Jordanow. Children very often told their teachers about strange BOLs and traces of the burnt grass, which they had left after their landing. Unfortunately no-one did not any photo or sketch of an area, where the meetings had taken their places. But there were many such CE2 – especially near a top of the Mt. Targoszowka.

8. Next BOL-incident took its place in Jordanow (49°38’58”N - 019°49’58”E), where on 4 June 1992 the red BOL was seen. The UFO passed very slowly over the river Skawa valley and was watched by almost hundred witnesses. They stated that the UFO emitted the pulsating light orange and red in their colors. My sister tried to take a photo with her camera but she did not get a good negative. The UFO was seen from 18:00 to 23:30 hrs. People were very frightened by that phenomenon, many of them were afraid that the atomic war had started… That UFO left no traces.

 

The BOL-sightings In the Podkarpacie Province of Poland

By Arkadiusz Miazga

1. CE1 in Brzoza Krolewska, August 1972

Group of children aged from 8 to 13 years observed a falling ‘star’, which dropped on grass nearby them. The object was in a size of the playing-cube, with 2-3 cm in its diameter. It shone with light-blue light. The ‘star’ was ball-shaped.
“In a while my 10-years-old brother wanted to put his sandal on that ‘star’, however I warned him that it could be dangerous and it might be in the able to burn a hole in his foot, because we really did not know, what it really was. When my brother brought his foot back from above the ‘star’, it started to take-off with the same speed, what it had come down. ‘The star’ did not produce any sound through all time, when it decreased, laid on the grass and increased its altitude – we were in the able to hear a noise of the strong wind and a music, which came from the wedding party.”

There were no traces on the grass.

2. NL/CE1 in Glinik, Oct. 1, 1975 or 1976

The 4-persons family witnessed that incident. Adam, the son, noticed object as a first. The frightened boy ran from a yard telling about the strange object. The all ran away from a house. They noticed a strange ball on a distance 100 meters far from the house. The ball had 3 meters in its diameter. On its surface were seen vertical stripes. Something moved inside of the ball. The BOL flew about 20 meters above the ground. It disappeared suddenly and left grey-bluish ‘smoke’ behind.

3. NL/CE2 in Dubiecko, Jan. 18, 1979.

One person was going home and suddenly noticed a strange red light at 19:00 hrs. After a while, the UFO came to the man pulsating with light and leaving a short ‘tail’ behind it. When the BOL approached to a distance 20-25 meters from the witness, he got fright and started to get back. At that moment the BOL disappeared – went off. The same object was seen earlier by others. At that time, there was observed an interaction of the BOL with electric devices in the house. The BOL had 1,5 meter in its diameter.

4. Series of the BOL-sightings in Nockowa-Bedzienica in Summer 1987

This event is a very interesting, because some members of one family watched strange objects in shape of from ovals, triangles till the bright BOLs in a formation of nine balls. They shone with a very bright light above fields, moving and flying. There was also the CE3 on a very big, light ‘screen’ appeared firstly three and finally four EBEs. One witness noticed a big red ball had landed on a field and its light went off. Nobody knows, whether there were traces here, because those events has been investigated in 2003.

5. NL/CE1 in Rydzow, early 1980’s

This event took its place in the Rydzow at Mielec village. The BOL was witnessed by one peasant, who did his work. He noticed the BOL, which went above a meadow very quickly at 21:00 hrs. The BOL pulsating with the light. At its lower part were visible ‘small white flames’. The object was almost 200 meters far from the witness. It moved towards the East and disappeared behind a nearby forest.

6. DD/CE1 in Glinik, May 1, 1990.

There were two 12-years old boys, who going to the old house witnessed the red BOL, at 19:30 – 20:00 hrs. The BOL moved in a distance of 50 meters from the both boys. The ball was very bright and its diameter was circa 1 meter. It dropped on the meadow and started to approach towards the witnesses. Suddenly they heart ‘a strange silence’ and frightened escaped to his homes.

7. NL/CE1 in Ostrow, Apr. 24, 1998

In a vicinity of the Ostrow at Ropczyce village one woman was going down the road, when she was lighted up by a very strong beam of the light, at 22:00 hrs. She turned herself around and saw a BOL flowing on an altitude of 100-150 meters above her. It went towards the sugar factory and the Magnesium Factory MAGNEZYTY. There it was dissolving into three lesser BOLs, which probably flew down towards the ground and vanished. The sighting lasted a couple of seconds.

8. NL/CE1 and CE0 in Glinik, April 2001

Four persons witnessed two bright BOLs, which measured 1 meter in their diameters from 02:00 till 06:00 in the night! One object flew 200 meters far from them. Another one moved into the air in a vicinity of the graveyard, almost 600 meters further. At dawn the BOLs went off. The both moved identically like each other did. It is strange that there are no other witnesses. Sooner the landlady of this home survived a meeting with a dark creature (Bedroom Visitor - CEo) in her bedroom.

9. NL/CE1 in Glinik, Summer 2002

This sighting took its place mere 200 meters further from a place of the CE/BOL in 1990. The 50-years-old witness was going through his yard with buckets of water was suddenly lighted up with very strong light. There was the BOL moving in the sky. After 5 sec. the BOL disappeared or its light went off. The object had 2-3 meters in its diameter.

10. NL in Borek Wielki, April 2007

Mother and her son in the various moments watched two various BOLs over the same place. They saw the BOLs in the night in an area 3 km far from the Magnesium Factory MAGNEZYTY. The BOLs measured c.a. 3-5 meters in their diameters.

11. DD in Rzeszow – Biala, May 9, 2007

One Rzeszow inhabitant recorded with his video-camera a strange object above fields in a vicinity of the Biala village at town of Rzeszow. The object could have 1 meter in its diameter. It moved in a very intelligent way in a distance of the 200 meters from the high-voltage line. The UFO was a white ball, which seemed to be pulsating. The BOL disappeared in one moment. The witness was c.a. 2 km far from the BOL. The event was filmed by the witness, who used the largest zoom.

12. NL in Biala-Tylczyn, Nov. 30, 2008

One woman of the Biala village is a witness of this event. Biala is a village 5 km far from Rzeszow, the South on it. According to her relation, she watched the UFO on Nov. 30, 2008 between 17:00 and 18:00 hrs. Going to her home, she suddenly noticed a strange, white ball on the NW. On a beginning she thought that that was a light of the gas drilling tower. But the ball was much greater than stars in an evening sky. After a few meters Mrs. Wiktoria (data reserved) realized that the ball went off. She started to think a lot about it. In a couple of minutes, she noticed the same ball in the NW direction, which made strange movements on the zigzag course above the horizon and next it has disappeared.

13. NL/BOLs in Swilcza at Rzeszow, Oct. 25, 2008

Two witnesses was going in their car on the E-4 Road towards the West and watched strange objects in the skies trough the wind screen. They stopped their car and watched the BOLs from a bus shed.

They saw 18 red, pulsating balls, which rotated themselves in the three rows. The same phenomenon was seen by several bus’s passengers. The BOLs remained in one place in the skies and disappeared after 8 minutes. They hung somewhere above two villages Nockowa and Iwierzyce.

There are the most interesting BOL-cases from my UFO-files from a terrain of the Podkarpacie province of Poland. In our country have been recorded a lot of information about the BOLs. Some of them I investigated myself f.ex. in Wylatowo.
