Case description

During October 1978, several incidents of reported involuntary levitation were grouped under the Vale das Velhas region of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The catalogue gives an approximate evening time of 8 p.m. and refers to three separate attempts. In these accounts, people were said to feel themselves being lifted and to hold onto trees to avoid being carried away. The digest does not identify the individuals or explain whether all three incidents occurred on the same night. The preserved sequence ends with the reported escapes. It does not describe three completed journeys aboard a craft, and supplies no detailed account of beings, conversations or examinations. Each incident would require its own original statement for a fuller chronology.
