There is so much NFL on ESPN right now.
Monday Night Football, plus pregame and postgame. NFL Live, NFL Primetime. Everything you need to stay on top of every game, every week.

**Chris Ramsay** (0:14)
Unbelievable.

**Richard Doty** (0:16)
And now, NFL Network is on the ESPN app. More football, more coverage, more ways to watch. Football's on, all season long, on ESPN and streaming on the ESPN app.

The one thing that convinced me beyond anything else that I had access to was listening to this Air Force sergeant female who was abducted countless times, went through literally torture by these extraterrestrials, having marks on her hands. He took her fingernails off, her toenails off, bleeding from the eye, ruptured her eardrum once. And then a lot of things that we did in a surveillance capacity to confirm what she says, that convinced me that there are, that they weren't humans doing this to her.

**Chris Ramsay** (1:31)
You surveilled it?

**Richard Doty** (1:34)
We set up a surveillance, and that's about all I can say.
She lived in a two-story, a real small apartment, and she, her bedroom was upstairs. And we knew that she would be taken during a time period.

**Chris Ramsay** (1:54)
So this is a multi-pronged, multi-faceted, multi-departmented sting operation in order to capture this.

**Richard Doty** (2:04)
Yes. That was successful. There were some that weren't, but that was what was successful. That's a fact. And she's a whistleblower. And she would be the number one person I would put in front of a camera if I was a member of Congress. Whoa.
A mentality regarding, they can't be hostile. They're all benevolent. It's absolutely out the window.

**Chris Ramsay** (2:31)
Are they on here? I'm going to show you something.

**Richard Doty** (2:44)
Wow.

**Chris Ramsay** (2:46)
Does that look like something you've seen before?

**Richard Doty** (2:48)
I can't say.

**Chris Ramsay** (2:50)
I think you just did.

**Chris Ramsay** (2:56)
I've had several strange experiences in my life potentially related to ET phenomena, but this story is in regards to levitation. When I was 9 or 10 years old, I was walking home from a friend's house. As I would sometimes do, I decided to run as fast as I could and jump as far as I could. I did two jumps, both of which I measured from where I landed, back to the stop sign that was my jumping off point. They were maybe 5 to 10 feet. I decided to do one more, went back a ways and ran towards the stop sign. As I jumped, I suddenly became aware that the air seemed very silent. I also had a strong experience of weightlessness and extreme forward momentum, more than the last two jumps. I came down at a dead stop on both feet, feeling almost zero gravitational influence. Tracing my steps back to the stop sign, I counted over 30 steps. Within moments, I heard crickets, cars in the distance, lawn sprinklers, all of which had faded away while I was in the air.
I tried hundreds and hundreds more times. I never even came close to the same distance. And it wasn't a dream because I told my mom when I got home, she didn't believe me, but remembered me telling her when I asked about it later.
I don't know, it's a big weird world.

**Chris Ramsay** (4:18)
Ladies and gentlemen, today we are joined by none other than Richard Doty, former AFOSI officer.
You've got quite the history, good sir. You've got a lot in your past in terms of ufology and your relationship to it, whether it's in a formal capacity or an informal capacity, whether that's a hobby or a job, your name is pretty, I would say, pretty prominent in this topic. So I first of all, want to thank you for joining me today.

**Richard Doty** (4:53)
Thank you, good to be here, Chris.

**Chris Ramsay** (4:54)
Yeah.
For those people out there wondering who I'm sitting with, they might be familiar with you. They might have seen your face somewhere, whether that's Ancient Aliens, whether that's a Netflix documentary or even some other documentaries that have come out in the past. You're a recognizable figure to those of us who know about the UFO topic. But to those who don't, how would you introduce yourself?

**Richard Doty** (5:24)
Well, I'm a former Air Force OSI Special Agent, Counterintelligence Officer within Air Force Special Investigations. And I started that career back in the 70s. I worked in some controversial issues, primarily the Paul Bennewitz case. A lot of the UFO historians know about that case, and whether they want to criticize me for it, for what I did in it. But I did it in accordance with military regulations. And I worked in the intelligence community up till 1988 From there, I left the government service.
