Fire in Babylon

1 hr 27 mins

During much of the late 50s and throughout the 60s, the West Indies Cricket Team put up outstanding displays of both batting and bowling the world over, but were never exactly the undisputed best like England or Australia. All of this changed quickly enough when after clinching the 1975 World Cup under Clive Lloyd, West Indies travelled to Australia and were beaten miserably 5-1, with pace legend Dennis Lillee making a mockery out of the famed Caribbean batting line-up. Lloyd replicated the same formula and having beaten India 2-1 with pacers like Michael Holding and Andy Roberts at his disposal with the same strategy, travelled to England in 1976. However, English skipper Tony Greig still considered the scheme a fluke and stated in an interview that he "intends to make the West Indies GROVEL". Fuelled by what they deemed was racism from a South Africa born Englishman, Lloyd's battery wrecked havoc, winning the series 3-0. From there on, there was no looking back, with the likes Joel Garner, Colin Croft and a refined Malcolm Marshall too joining the squad, West Indies defeated each and every opponent in the path, paving way for future greats like Curtly Ambrose and Courtney Walsh, as West Indies from the start of 1980 till 1995 literally ruled world cricket, something no other team in the history of any other sport has ever accomplished till date.

27 Alien Encounters

1 hr 7 mins

Strange and bizarre UFO encounters abound, but recent Alien encounters by highly credible eyewitnesses are so unusual and perplexing that they challenge our understanding of physics and the Universe as we know it. Many who encounter UFO's are amazed at their ability to hover noiselessly only to speed off at incredible speeds not possible with even the most advanced military craft. Many sightings report the UFOs changing shape and size; emitting beams of light over nuclear bases; illuminating roadways and entire towns with a powerful white light; and having the ability to be in one place only to reappear in another in an instant. Even more shocking is the reason behind the abductions and why the Aliens are here on Earth. World governments and military forces know the aliens are here. Explore this phenomenon that is destined to impact our society, our world structure, and our very being. WE ARE NOT ALONE. "Riveting eyewitness and insider testimony." - The UFO Vault. "Everything we've been told about Alien visitations is a Lie." - Sean Morton, UFO Chronicles. "The shocking truth about the Alien Agenda is something that the people of Earth are not prepared for." - OH Krill, author of Montauk Babies. "Humans are under the control of a strange force bending them in absurd ways, forcing their role in a bizarre game of deception." - Dr. Jacques Vallee.
