George Knapp obtained Russia Leak (1968)

There have been numerous reports and claims of leaked UFO footage over the years, and one such incident involved journalist George Knapp who claimed to have obtained a video shot in 1968 that showed a flying saucer-shaped object hovering over a military base in Russia. Knapp, who is a well-known UFO researcher and investigative journalist, claimed that he received the footage from an anonymous source who had smuggled it out of Russia.

According to Knapp, the video was shot by a Russian military cameraman who was stationed at the base and captured the object hovering silently in the air for several minutes before suddenly taking off at an incredible speed. The footage shows a disc-shaped object with a metallic finish hovering in the air, with no visible means of propulsion or flight control. The cameraman can be heard speaking in Russian and expressing surprise and confusion at what he is seeing.

Knapp claimed that he had the footage analyzed by a number of experts in the field of video analysis and that it showed no signs of being a hoax or a fake. He also claimed that the footage had been seen by several high-ranking officials in the US government and that they were convinced of its authenticity.

However, as with any claims of leaked footage or secret government documents related to UFOs, it is difficult to verify the authenticity of the footage or the credibility of the sources. Some skeptics have questioned the validity of the footage, pointing out that it is difficult to confirm its origin and that the quality is poor, making it hard to draw any conclusions about what is being shown.
