Brazil’s Roswell: The 1996 Varginha UFO Crash & Alien Encounter

On January 20, 1996, the quiet city of Varginha in Minas Gerais, Brazil, turned into ground zero for one of the most credible and terrifying UFO cases in history. Three young girls came face-to-face with a wounded, bizarre humanoid creature with oily brown skin, red eyes, and a overpowering ammonia smell. Hours earlier, firefighters captured a similar being in broad daylight. Strange lights and a crippled UFO were seen crashing in the region, the local zoo animals died mysteriously, military trucks rushed to the scene, and a young soldier who handled one of the creatures allegedly died days later under mysterious circumstances. Despite official denials and an aggressive cover-up by the Brazilian Army and NORAD, eyewitnesses—including police officers, doctors, and military personnel—have stuck to their stories for almost 30 years. Was a live alien captured in Brazil? Is the Varginha Incident the best-documented extraterrestrial encounter ever… or the biggest cover-up in South America?
