Bersaillin (France) — December 17, 1954 (1700)
A woodsman from Poligny saw a very bright light on the road, first thought it was an American car with its headlights on, but soon ob- served it came from a dark craft about 80 m away. The light turned brighter; the witness felt an intense heat wave and thought he was going to die. Finally, the light went away. (Personal)
