3' - 3.5' tall green humanoid tapped on bedroom window, had big red eyes, no nose, slit mouth, long arms. It walked to roof edge, floated down. Explanation: Psych.
An object was observed. It departed by rapidly flying straight up until lost to sight. Gravity effects were noted. One gray rectangular object, about 20 feet across, was observed by one male 10-year-old witness in a yard for five minutes (Hedtke). No sound was heard. One 3-foot-tall little green man was seen.
Rodney Hedtke, 10, was going to bed in his second floor bedroom when he heard a tapping in the window, looking out, he saw a green colored being 3-3.5 ft tall crouching on the roof and tapping at the window. This humanoid had a huge baldhead with immense red eyes that seemed to rotate, no nose, a small lipless mouth, and long arms with small hands. It was apparently unclothed. The boy looked at this creature for nearly a minute; then it turned away, walked to the edge of the roof, and floated down to the ground. Looking back at Rodney, it went to a square gray object about 12 x 12 ft in size and 7 ft high, with red to orange pulsating lights on the corners and a yellow light inside. The being entered this craft by a ramp that rolled down from a hatch, it then began to glow red, and took off vertically without any sound. Rodney was "scared to death." When his mother returned home 2 hours later, she found that the lights in the house were dim, and the TV did not work properly; she found that fuses had blown.
