  • Every Thursday we're traveling through a DUST wormhole to bring back some our channel's classics.
    An old man and his dog make their routine walk to the isolated clifftops of Cornwall... but this time they find out they're not so isolated after all.

    A fellow days ago told me he has watched a disk jumping straight up like this, at about 30 meters from him, large about the same, but compact and bright, thick about 2 meters, and before jumping it slowly went down about 10 meters, all neatly, no sparks or sounds. It had been steady in middle air few meters over his position, along some minutes.
    He was in a walking in mountain and stopped astonished. Then he was shocked by the sublime impression.

    Top notch short. The old man now has one more "sea story" to tell. However, this one he'll keep to himself. The smile at the end tells all. He knows he can't tell anyone what he saw, but he's fine with that. Interesting side note was the row boat tangled up and stuck to the top of the craft by the anchor line. Perhaps it was his boat that was "lost" years ago but now on it's way to another planet.

    Ok....some of these films need to be marked NSFW.
    Because my reaction to this amazing film had me covering my mouth at certain scenes, so I would not wake anyone up. I mean so much intense suspense, mystery, and awe was presented. Left me on the edge of my seat. I really loved the ending. His reaction was perfect.

      I wager almost no one has “seen things others couldn’t possibly comprehend” Unless it’s a rare genius understanding something most people cannot. There are no ghosts. There is no supernatural. No one was abducted and I don’t personally buy the ufo nonsense except as a thing wr haven’t identified- not aliens come to earth. Imagined things and want to feel special - yes.

    The old man had been going to that location for many years, years before the golden retriever was there. Beings would take the man - now old, below the water to conduct procedures on him which left no marks on him for their research. It was his understanding that in turn they would rid him of advanced cancers throughout his body to cooperate and all was mutual and beneficial like teamwork. That day, they were apparently through with their work and left without reason. He realized he now was free to long live with his wife and it was a new dawn.

    There are some mistakes here. A flying saucer with this kind of soaring ability will not rot because it is soaked in sea water for a long time, and it does not need to break free from the water surface and will fly directly from the bottom of the water. Of course, I also know what the author wants to express in this way. The silent old man has a story.

      In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.
      Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths;
      Our bruised arms hung up for monuments;
      Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings,
      Our dreadful marches to delightful measures.

    I truly hope most of the creators on DUST watched this short and then asked themselves "how can a film with no words still have viewers understand and have a vested interest in the character". The overwhelming majority of creators on this channel insist on writing confusing stories with zero investment by the viewer, while the only people who positively comment on them are film student/children afraid of giving honest feedback.
