Ancona, Italy being encounter — February 3, 1994

At approximately 9 a.m. on 3 February 1994, about six people at Passetto beach near Ancona reportedly watched an unusual figure among the rocks known as the Pope's Chair. The principal interviewed witness, identified only as Giulio, was seventy-five. He described a figure approximately 1.5 metres tall, with an elongated, sharp-featured face, enormous round eyes with round black pupils, a broad chest and narrow waist. A close-fitting black outfit reportedly covered its body and unusually long feet. Earphone-like fittings or projections appeared around the head, with an antenna-like extension. The figure swayed or staggered slowly among the rocks for roughly ten minutes before rising vertically and travelling northeast until it disappeared. No associated craft was reported. The account reached local newspapers and television, then Italian UFO researchers including Renzo Cabassi, Paolo Fiorino and Marcello Coppilli. In Preston Dennett's recovered retelling, investigators interviewed Giulio, while other alleged witnesses declined further cooperation after ridicule. Importantly, Giulio himself considered whether the object could have been an inflated balloon. The surviving description therefore supports an ambiguous figure report, rather than an established alien visitor or a confirmed hoax. The exact-case video discusses this uncertainty, and the reconstruction preserves it.
