It makes my heart glad to see this. As a 15 year old kid, I took his week long class in tool making. At time a neighbor who also knew Alex would drive me and his grandson to school every morning. Sometimes we would stop off at the Weygers house for coffee. He was always friendly towards us kids and would break out his blueprints of the flying machines he had invented. I still have my notebook I kept when I took his course and an autographed copy of his tool making book. He was an amazing person and great influence on young me.
This does not negate the simplicity of the fact: there are UFOs - such secret espionage equipment (flying saucers, triangles, cigars - with glowing zones, plasma propulsion panels). This technology was launched in the USA in the 40s of the twentieth century, now it is available in many places (in China, in the Russian Federation, in oligarchic and criminal structures). To cover up, the special services have been spreading various misinformation for 70 years, producing myths and fakes. It is necessary to know about it, these are elementary facts. Of course, these facts, as such, do not exclude - neither aliens, time travelers, guests from parallel spaces, otherworldly dark forces, etc. You can play ufologically with these UFOs, but believe me: espionage technology is in the first place in this phenomenon. The US Congress has already begun to declassify it little by little, but they are afraid of lawsuits and other claims of deceived ordinary people. 😗😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Rest In Peace Randy..Thank you for your extensive efforts over the years. One day maybe Alexander Weygers will get the recognition he so rightfully deserves.
@waterside I think he is Great and I am sure Hundreds of thousands of us that saw the video learned that he was great. We dont have to dedicate our lives to someone that is great, but learn from what they have done to better ourselves. That's a word of Wisdom for you
that would be great but what was this guy great for? Just because Bloomberg seems to have successfully fooled you with this story does not mean anyone involved has been elevated to greatness. If this device was patented in 1944 don't you think the military would have seized it, and him? People are finding it impossible to patent inventions like devices that can convert standard (gas powered) combustion engines into hydrogen fueled engines (Stan Meyer) without the government stepping in with seize and desist orders for national security reasons. How was anyone able to patent a flying saucer in the middle of WWII? If the patent is legitimate, and the military didn't notice it at the time, it means that the invention is not as amazing as Bloomberg makes it sound.
Both men were extraordinary and deserve to be remembered for their respective contributions! Read the pinned article, very well written. I hope Ms. Thomas is able to fulfill the foundation's mission. Thanks for this story, its inspiring!
So amazing to see people who have a mission in life, who love what they do and are committed to it 100%. At least with this video, we all learned the name of Alexander Weygers (as well as Randy Hunter).
I really appreciate this positive outlook and reflection upon the content. Thank you for offering something of value to the conversation rather than being like the rest of the comments
True. Ashlee's story about Randy brings Alex's art and name to the fore. Randy spends a life and fortune trying to make Weygers famous and it turns out that a story about *his* missional effort finally accomplishes his life goal.
This art dealer may have been somewhat obsessed, but the art and other artifacts like drawings from Mr. Weygers are pretty wonderful so I can see why he picked up this ball and ran with it.
It is mostly a question of technical innovability for his time, not so much a question of arts. But quality arts and technical innovations are of course related in terms of which types of minds are needed for these processes.
Nikola Tesla patented his anti gravity craft in 1928. That thing was disc shaped. Weygers definitely did not do this first. Maybe he came up with the propelled by air part first. Vimana is pretty much disc shaped, that existed in ancient India.
Great story in a story. Weygers was a special very man. I had the privilege to study with him. Finding this just keeps his story going, yet with such a tragic twist.
I find it fascinating that some of the most famous artists in the world never got to see their influence while they were alive. It's funny how humans put value on art after the creator is gone.
That art is beautiful, I really like the one where the woman is on her back as if she is dead upon the rocks and man seems to be crying with great sorrow. I could feel his pain.

RIP Randy Hunter, you led a life trying to add to the positive rather than the negative, a love of the Arts is admirable and to try lift another artist from obscurity is a selfless act,here's hoping your spirit is in a better place.
Alexander Weygers was a top tier super-great artist. His sculptures were like Andrew Wyeth paintings in three dimensions. The fact that Alexander Weygers is relatively unknown, but people like Andy Warhol, Peter Max, and Jackson Pollock became famous shows just how rotten the NYC and LA based artworld scenes really are.
The drawings are extraordinary. Those other artist appeals to a different demographic, less precision more narrative,. It is easier to access then more technical renderings. Alexander Weygers is now a posthumus legend that had a living following,. Remarkable
It is not just NYC and LA. Imagine I have a very nice huge painting over 100y old. Everybody who sees it likes it but is worth only a 100usd because the painter is not well known. That means you pay mostly for the name = marketing/superficial aspect of it rather than for the work itself. Of course it is also understandable because the name will then make sure the work keeps its value. But it is also rotten as you say. But the advantage of this all is that you can buy very nice paintings for a bargain simply because they were made by unknown people!
Ohmygosh! I thought it was an inspiring, admirable story and all, and then it dawned on me that *this* Weygers was the one that wrote some of the coolest blacksmithing books -- ones that I just LOVED as a kid. I didn't realize that his abilities extended beyond awesome blacksmithing.

@@pitolove71 Some of the content in Bob L.s claims proves well to me that he has never been in a lab of advanced sciences very long or with a leading position. He is just repeating esoterical ideas from average new age litterature. At the Area 51 he even took his friends out to the test site to show them the most experimental models. Not understanding that this was within the cold war of the 1900s, which has now returned. This means that the last thing you should do is providing your enemies with your best tech, by calling the local town populations and the press. He got suspended for that ,and he claims that he returned to get a leading job there. That is "possible" but unproved. Maybe he was the lead dishwasher, because that is where his level of physics theory is at. :)
So Hunter died last year and we're just hearing about it now? His work must continue. Tapping into the genius, vision, and creativity of a man like Alexander Weygers is to tap into the soul and lifeblood of humanity. Remarkable men, such as Weygers, Einstein, and Tesla are our guiding lights. Who do we have in our era, Elon Musk? He's good, but we need more like him. *Randy Hunter, I salute your magnificent obsession.*
I dont think i'd put Weygers on the same pedestal as Einstein or Tesla... What did this Weygers actually produce to help humanity? Other than illustrations that didnt get anybody anywhere...
Elon Musk admits that he is not a technological genius in any way. He is a self proclaimed business mogul. He knows how to market products. Nothing more than a glorified salesman. Which is why he pays more homage to Thomas Edison than he does to Nicola Tesla. The only thing Edison truly invented was the electric chair. The light bulb was invented by someone else. Edison paid for the rights to design and concept and took the purchased schematics to the patent office in his name. There are many brilliant physicists trying to build upon the ideas of the late T. Townsend Brown and the great minds before him. Dr Paul LaViolette and Dr Tom Valone are just two of these such people that are trying inform the masses of the energy and propulsion technologies that were developed back in the 1950's and prior to WWII. Elon Musk is merely capitalizing on Tesla's inventions from 100 years ago. Just like Thomas Edison capitalized on Tesla and every inventor around him. If it weren't for people like Edison, JP Morgan, Rockefeller, and everyone else who had a hand in the banking/oil cartels, our energy technology would have been allowed to evolve just like every other sector of technology. Instead, those people have successfully suppressed any advancement in energy and propulsion technologies so they could protect and expand their profits while keeping us enslaved to their dinosaur fossil fuel technology from the turn of the 20th century. Tons of advancements were made in this field many decades ago. Don't expect those ideas and inventions to ever be televised any time soon though. The people that own the 4 biggest banks also own the 4 biggest oil companies. They also own the biggest media outlets. Whoever controls the money controls the laws, whoever controls the media controls the message, and whoever controls the energy controls the world
As an artist, this is the kind of curator you dream of. Someone who can really see your value and what makes you special, and believes in you enough to fight for you.
UFO technologies are made by humans Don't scare alien is fake it is all genetic engineering. Fake alien attacks But ufo is real all tec technologies in the world came from a point I don't know what is but it probably KABBALAH maybe.
There are no "UFO" designs. He he... UFO stands for un-identified flying object. There is nothing un-identified with conventional mechanics such as in the flying saucer models of Weygens.
Thanks so much for this piece Ashlee. It's always interesting to see someone who finds an interest and follows it as far as it can take him/her. Well done!
Randy had the passion,money and enthusiasm to pursue and resurrect Alexander Weygers story. Admittedly I never heard of him until I came across this video. I always thought the military came up with this idea (shame on me) of course they didn't. Great story and so interesting. Thank you for enlightening me and shedding light an yet another lost story of our history.
My deceased great aunt had told me her brother (I believe his name was Benton Hooper,) had sent in a patent request on one either during or after his military service. They never got the confirmation back from the U.S. Patent office before he mysteriously died. He was found on train tracks somewhere in Tennessee.
The government tends to dump bodies of people who they've killed on train tracks, in order to make the death look like a suicide and to destroy the physically evidence / make autopsys hard to preform. Look up "The boys on the tracks"
My Grandfather met a man on a cruise who disclosed he made his fortune selling a means of alternative propulsion to Shell oil who selved it and bought him out. Whatever the amount was he was retired and cruising in his forties.
In Japan there is a drawing of what is clearly a ufo, the story goes that over 2000 years ago a woman visited Japan. She got out of this object but they didn't call it a ufo or a ship but the way they described it was clearly a UFO, the drawings are clearly almost perfectly the same as this man's drawings. So I asked the question how old was this man.
Leonardo Da Vinci and Nikolai Tesla are my visionary heroes. Adding Alex Weyger to my list. And Randy Hunt for his unseen efforts to create this museum, too.
Tesla was a mentally ill fool for a large part of his life, and put a lot of things down as inventions that were unworkable and silly. A huge part of his fame comes from these things, and from all the great inventions the government supposedly stole after his death. Except there were no great inventions to steal. At least half of what's written about him is pure fiction that almost everyone now believes.
@@ДжеймсКолвин I'm not talking about the mystical project aircraft, we can't even be certain that it's real, I'm talking about the first part of the sentence. This aircraft, the one in the video, isn't anything groundbreaking as it's just a giant shrouded fan. The craft that was built also had pretty much nothing at all to do with the one in the video. So what I want to say is the guy can't (I don't even remember his name) go around saying any disk shaped vehicle is copied from his idea, it's an inevitable design (and by design I mean look, not specific mechanics)
Randy did accomplish his mission however, after 2017 the history of Weygers has spread like wild fire, its even written in some of the largest encyclopedias about this man. Randy is one of the great men who died doing what he loved, very few can say the same.
What a amazing video! Another forgotten genius, how cool is it that he created such futuristic concepts before any type of pop culture we can remember, what a visionary!
LIKE ANY OTHER PROFESSIONS , WE HAVE THE ART DEALER, AND THE OTHER! THEY DON''T NECESSARILY BELONG TO THE SAME CLUB. ITS' THE DEPTH OF THE OBSERVERS MIND WHO SEES THE SAME OBJECT AND TO BE THE WORLD APART IN APRECIATING OWN DELUSION THAN CAPTURING THE CRITICAL DISTINCTION ENTAILS BETWEEN ONE AND THE OTHER ON THE FACT OF THE MATTER AT HAND.
The images suggest to me that he was an artist, not an engineer. Far more enamoured by the way the thing would look than with how the thing would work. Probably influenced a lot by whatever "technology" was written about in those UFO books. Still very cool, though, I admire people who excel at their hobbies.
Take a look at the Candadian Avro Car. It works the exact same way. The US saw it and did test trials with it, but found that it was completely useless. The designs of these type things are fascinating but that's about it. The idea of a rotor style copter engine inside of a disc shape craft isn't really practical. Don't get me wrong, this could actually be done, but the way the guy designed them as some kind of luxury cruise ship, isn't really gonna work. Engines like that need access to a lot of air in order to create lift. The design you see above, has little entry ports for the air to be sucked into from the top. Plus with that little engine in the middle of it, you'd be lucky if you got 5 inches off the ground.
Whatever it really was that made you bite on that original email, you might only ever know but follow that gut if you recognize it again. Great story, well shared by you and the tone of the story is fantastic, I only wish it was much longer. I imagine in the few short years you had with Randy, so much more was learned than what made it out of the editing room and with his passing, the story doesn't stop there. Now, in a way much as Randy is part of this fascinating man's story, you too are now a part of both of theirs. A follow up perhaps 5 or 10 years from when when Randy left his own legacy behind, you'll take us on another journey, one which hopefully shows the spirit you three share continuing this on... Captivating!
This is propaganda, Tesla had the first flying saucer patents and even before then there were designs for flying machines from thousands of years ago which took the shape of a "flying saucer".
@@wendyaanenson8566 What are you talking about? You mean Alexander Weygers? This video is trying to portray him as the originator of the "flying saucer" design which is a flat out lie designed to mislead and brainwash people into thinking anything to do with flying saucers was just this guy's disk shaped hover craft patent, it doesn't take balls to place a patent on a shape that already existed.
@@wendyaanenson8566 To patent, it takes money... You can steal peoples ideas and patent it before they can and the law will be on your side 100%. Weygers did not invent UFO's, he just patented the idea when patents became a thing and was also cheap to do so back then.

Thank you Randy for introducing Alexander Weyger to me and to those who don't know him yet. As an artist myself, I am truly fascinated by his work. I'll do some research myself on this amazing artist. I wonder how he came up with the detailed illustration of the Disc copter. There is no detailed illustration on the engine so I presume that he is just designing based on inspiration from Tesla, maybe? Or he may have seen a UFO himself. RIP Randy.
That was amazing, piece of history, pieces of a life that needs to be seen touched and absolutely put in to memory, and a memory of a person that should be in a memory as a genus himself . Thank you for your time in putting this together!
Most people with that much drive have been happier in what they have done and/or achieved. If you think about it the ambition was selfless which is not a bad quality.
When a rich man puts all the puzzle pieces together he does so with a knowledgeable man that has always put his puzzle pieces together and when the two men put all their puzzle pieces together they finally put together a perfect picture.

This means that the last thing you should do is providing your enemies with your best tech, by calling the local town populations and the press. He got suspended for that ,and he claims that he returned to get a leading job there. That is "possible" but unproved. Maybe he was the lead dishwasher, because that is where his level of physics theory is at. :)
So Hunter died last year and we're just hearing about it now? His work must continue. Tapping into the genius, vision, and creativity of a man like Alexander Weygers is to tap into the soul and lifeblood of humanity. Remarkable men, such as Weygers, Einstein, and Tesla are our guiding lights. Who do we have in our era, Elon Musk? He's good, but we need more like him.
*Randy Hunter, I salute your magnificent obsession.*
Elon Musk is hated by many, and isn't really comparable to the big names
I dont think i'd put Weygers on the same pedestal as Einstein or Tesla... What did this Weygers actually produce to help humanity? Other than illustrations that didnt get anybody anywhere...
Da Vinci, Newton, hawkings?
@Amr Mostafa *ahem* Elon-chan
Elon Musk admits that he is not a technological genius in any way. He is a self proclaimed business mogul. He knows how to market products. Nothing more than a glorified salesman. Which is why he pays more homage to Thomas Edison than he does to Nicola Tesla. The only thing Edison truly invented was the electric chair. The light bulb was invented by someone else. Edison paid for the rights to design and concept and took the purchased schematics to the patent office in his name. There are many brilliant physicists trying to build upon the ideas of the late T. Townsend Brown and the great minds before him. Dr Paul LaViolette and Dr Tom Valone are just two of these such people that are trying inform the masses of the energy and propulsion technologies that were developed back in the 1950's and prior to WWII. Elon Musk is merely capitalizing on Tesla's inventions from 100 years ago. Just like Thomas Edison capitalized on Tesla and every inventor around him. If it weren't for people like Edison, JP Morgan, Rockefeller, and everyone else who had a hand in the banking/oil cartels, our energy technology would have been allowed to evolve just like every other sector of technology. Instead, those people have successfully suppressed any advancement in energy and propulsion technologies so they could protect and expand their profits while keeping us enslaved to their dinosaur fossil fuel technology from the turn of the 20th century. Tons of advancements were made in this field many decades ago. Don't expect those ideas and inventions to ever be televised any time soon though. The people that own the 4 biggest banks also own the 4 biggest oil companies. They also own the biggest media outlets. Whoever controls the money controls the laws, whoever controls the media controls the message, and whoever controls the energy controls the world
To live a life of passion and purpose is to live life. Thank you Randy, now I know who Alexander Weygers is.
the pursuit of life is more dangerous than a life in pursuit
Alexander Weygers use stolen images!!
As an artist, this is the kind of curator you dream of. Someone who can really see your value and what makes you special, and believes in you enough to fight for you.
I guess that no one else noticed that Randy looks almost EXACTLY like Alexander. Hello!
The first time I saw a flying saucer was when I pinched a waitress
UFO technologies are made by humans
Don't scare alien is fake it is all genetic engineering.

I don't care for the UFO designs but the drawing skills and the sculptures were amazing.
What shape is best for rapid direction change ?
@@shaundavidssd probably disk
There are no "UFO" designs. He he... UFO stands for un-identified flying object. There is nothing un-identified with conventional mechanics such as in the flying saucer models of Weygens.
Thanks so much for this piece Ashlee. It's always interesting to see someone who finds an interest and follows it as far as it can take him/her. Well done!
Super interesting, both the beauty in what was made ,the mind of Randy and Alex....would have loved to meet and learn from these people .
Randy had the passion,money and enthusiasm to pursue and resurrect Alexander Weygers story. Admittedly I never heard of him until I came across this video. I always thought the military came up with this idea (shame on me) of course they didn't. Great story and so interesting. Thank you for enlightening me and shedding light an yet another lost story of our history.
"...Who Patented the UFO"
Ummmm.....no. You can patent a flying machine design, but you cannot patent something you cannot identify. ;-)
I was also gonna say the same hah
You're suck a fucking loser fr

Man with a legendary mind set, leaving happiness aside and living life own his own 🥰 truly inspire man, i just love his great work done by himself. 🙏
Wonderful (if bittersweet) story. The diagrams and cut away illustrations are works of art as well. Thank you for this.
"Oh, Weygers, as in Alexander Weygers..yea I heard of him" I reply anytime anyone asks me anything.
Mission accomplished, Randy
My deceased great aunt had told me her brother (I believe his name was Benton Hooper,) had sent in a patent request on one either during or after his military service. They never got the confirmation back from the U.S. Patent office before he mysteriously died. He was found on train tracks somewhere in Tennessee.
read what BrIan Henson saId In the comment sectIon for dIs vId It mIght help u wIth ur InvestIgatIon
The government tends to dump bodies of people who they've killed on train tracks, in order to make the death look like a suicide and to destroy the physically evidence / make autopsys hard to preform. Look up "The boys on the tracks"
@@ConnorRockYT Can't see that? What is the nick?
My Grandfather met a man on a cruise who disclosed he made his fortune selling a means of alternative propulsion to Shell oil who selved it and bought him out. Whatever the amount was he was retired and cruising in his forties.
An emotional story.
A man battling death with a mission so pure❤
Thanks for sharing it with us
Passion of a man, if identified by him, makes him immortal. RIP Randy & Alex !!!! 🙏❤
amazing guy. humanity needs more of these guys in it. thanks for the share randy genius is only found in a selected few.
We don't deserve those geniuses.
Well, UFOs have been depicted in paintings and cave walls for thousands of years. I just wonder where this guy got the inspiration from!
In Japan there is a drawing of what is clearly a ufo, the story goes that over 2000 years ago a woman visited Japan. She got out of this object but they didn't call it a ufo or a ship but the way they described it was clearly a UFO, the drawings are clearly almost perfectly the same as this man's drawings. So I asked the question how old was this man.
@@josephdelatorre3751
Clearly?
I agree with you! Ancient Egypt had engraved pics of the space craft too👌💯
XD fuckin brainlets thinking Stone age ufo existed
@@trololollolololololl lol idiot
Leonardo Da Vinci and Nikolai Tesla are my visionary heroes. Adding Alex Weyger to my list. And Randy Hunt for his unseen efforts to create this museum, too.
Tesla was a mentally ill fool for a large part of his life, and put a lot of things down as inventions that were unworkable and silly. A huge part of his fame comes from these things, and from all the great inventions the government supposedly stole after his death. Except there were no great inventions to steal. At least half of what's written about him is pure fiction that almost everyone now believes.
6:06 You already know if they were building that type of stuff back then they have really advanced craft like the T3RB now.
Not really that advanced, the F-35's software makes that look like childs play
@@midgetman4206 What kind of software on a plane overshadows anti-gravity ships with high maneuver speed and resistance to radar?
@@ДжеймсКолвин I'm not talking about the mystical project aircraft, we can't even be certain that it's real, I'm talking about the first part of the sentence. This aircraft, the one in the video, isn't anything groundbreaking as it's just a giant shrouded fan. The craft that was built also had pretty much nothing at all to do with the one in the video.
So what I want to say is the guy can't (I don't even remember his name) go around saying any disk shaped vehicle is copied from his idea, it's an inevitable design (and by design I mean look, not specific mechanics)
Randy did accomplish his mission however, after 2017 the history of Weygers has spread like wild fire, its even written in some of the largest encyclopedias about this man.
Randy is one of the great men who died doing what he loved, very few can say the same.
What a amazing video! Another forgotten genius, how cool is it that he created such futuristic concepts before any type of pop culture we can remember, what a visionary!
FYI at 6:06 The AVRO disc was made by the Canadian AVRO company and sold off to the US air force.
really appreciated this video and the article linked below… I had the privilege to meet Alex and Marian, taking one of his workshops in the mid- '70s.
Everything was stolen from Nikola Tesla
JESUSLOVEYOU
💝 this. Tks for sharing his story.
,
That was inspiring story living out your dreams I hope I’m not the only person who thinks that.
LIKE ANY OTHER PROFESSIONS , WE HAVE THE ART DEALER, AND THE OTHER! THEY DON''T NECESSARILY BELONG TO THE SAME CLUB. ITS' THE DEPTH OF THE OBSERVERS MIND WHO SEES THE SAME OBJECT AND TO BE THE WORLD APART IN APRECIATING OWN DELUSION THAN CAPTURING THE CRITICAL DISTINCTION ENTAILS BETWEEN ONE AND THE OTHER ON THE FACT OF THE MATTER AT HAND.
Why else would they bombard us with countless Alien inspired films. Somewhere in there is the truth.

I know a Randy who seems to share similar personalities. Also his obsession with his passions. I love my Randy.
Sir, the idea of vertical take off and landing is still in production today. VTOL aircraft take off using this same concept.
I have no opinion about the flying saucer thing, but those sculptures are amazing. Weygers was an incredible artist.
That art work sucks. My father does way way better
thanks randy. would’ve never known about this fascinating person without you
Great story. Thank you for sharing the passion of two men. They finally meet in the afterlife.
Insanity runs deep in the human mind.
Just look around Freddy...
You must be speaking from experience and not about the subjects of the video. Go take your meds.
this looks like an older design... Nikola Tesla's flying saucer.
Diga Prints Perhaps, but propulsion wise, totally different.
Anyone else here after the government admitted that aliens do exist? Bob lazar's documentary on Netflix was really mind opening as well.
Aliens are Demons
I love Learning about people like this. Thank you for sharing. Today I learned about two very interesting people.
I was expecting a bit of technical info on how this Discopter could fly ...uh , somewhat disappointing :-/
i wished i could build a fucking discopter just to fly from this dude's house.
The images suggest to me that he was an artist, not an engineer. Far more enamoured by the way the thing would look than with how the thing would work. Probably influenced a lot by whatever "technology" was written about in those UFO books. Still very cool, though, I admire people who excel at their hobbies.
Take a look at the Candadian Avro Car. It works the exact same way. The US saw it and did test trials with it, but found that it was completely useless. The designs of these type things are fascinating but that's about it. The idea of a rotor style copter engine inside of a disc shape craft isn't really practical. Don't get me wrong, this could actually be done, but the way the guy designed them as some kind of luxury cruise ship, isn't really gonna work. Engines like that need access to a lot of air in order to create lift. The design you see above, has little entry ports for the air to be sucked into from the top. Plus with that little engine in the middle of it, you'd be lucky if you got 5 inches off the ground.
Pierre Villemaire-Brooks I know the feeling
I would call him a visionary designer, more like Marc Newson designed an aircraft that doesn't fly
As much as I Iove the flying saucers. His art work is amazing.
“Amazing??” Really??? Why?
Hey
Whatever it really was that made you bite on that original email, you might only ever know but follow that gut if you recognize it again. Great story, well shared by you and the tone of the story is fantastic, I only wish it was much longer. I imagine in the few short years you had with Randy, so much more was learned than what made it out of the editing room and with his passing, the story doesn't stop there. Now, in a way much as Randy is part of this fascinating man's story, you too are now a part of both of theirs.
A follow up perhaps 5 or 10 years from when when Randy left his own legacy behind, you'll take us on another journey, one which hopefully shows the spirit you three share continuing this on...
Captivating!
a beautiful story, thank you
sad to see that the saucer idea may have been taken from him without accreditation
This was a beautiful story. Anyone would be fortunate to be so passionate about anything in life. Thank you for sharing this for the world to see.
RIP and thank you Randy.. I know who Alexander Weygers is now and his work thanks to you.
This was super informative and cool thanks Bloomberg. Going to go do some of my own research on the man now.
we need a follow up to this
It's not crazy at all to spend your money, it's crazy to think you will have it forever.
This is propaganda, Tesla had the first flying saucer patents and even before then there were designs for flying machines from thousands of years ago which took the shape of a "flying saucer".
But to patent it ? Takes balls.
@@wendyaanenson8566 What are you talking about? You mean Alexander Weygers? This video is trying to portray him as the originator of the "flying saucer" design which is a flat out lie designed to mislead and brainwash people into thinking anything to do with flying saucers was just this guy's disk shaped hover craft patent, it doesn't take balls to place a patent on a shape that already existed.
@@wendyaanenson8566 To patent, it takes money... You can steal peoples ideas and patent it before they can and the law will be on your side 100%. Weygers did not invent UFO's, he just patented the idea when patents became a thing and was also cheap to do so back then.
@@Lazerspike yea theres been ufos around for 1000s of years an ufos have been in religious paintings an closed off caves an so on.... so this man was not the man who came up with them

Thank you Randy for introducing Alexander Weyger to me and to those who don't know him yet. As an artist myself, I am truly fascinated by his work. I'll do some research myself on this amazing artist. I wonder how he came up with the detailed illustration of the Disc copter. There is no detailed illustration on the engine so I presume that he is just designing based on inspiration from Tesla, maybe? Or he may have seen a UFO himself. RIP Randy.
nah, seems he just knocked a fan over and though, "hey, that could lift a city!"
This is world , your actual value will be notice when you’re no more in here .

Alexander George Weygers and Randy
That was amazing, piece of history, pieces of a life that needs to be seen touched and absolutely put in to memory, and a memory of a person that should be in a memory as a genus himself . Thank you for your time in putting this together!
Vril and Haunebu craft and their connection to ancient vedic designs are fascinating.
They died what he loved doing
R.I.P Randy Hunter & Alexander Weygers
For once that term makes sense. It wasn't what they did that killed them, but when they died they were doing what they loved.
Most people with that much drive have been happier in what they have done and/or achieved. If you think about it the ambition was selfless which is not a bad quality.
Beautiful story.
When a rich man puts all the puzzle pieces together he does so with a knowledgeable man that has always put his puzzle pieces together and when the two men put all their puzzle pieces together they finally put together a perfect picture.
The flying saucer type thing is very popular in india since ancient time(2000bc to 3000bc) as vimans and it was rediscovered by an india guy sivkar bapuji talpade by studying ancient texts in varanasi in late 1880s and he also conduct a test fly of this near bombay but colonial govt classified it and after this nobody known him
Only really really REALLY smart people give India credit 💯👽
Indian mythology makes us believe there are aliens out there
It is very common in indian houses talking about 'loks'(different planet) like bhu lok , indra lok , vankuth lok , patalu lok and many more
A sad story of a smart man. very sad.

Thank you, we need more people standing on their own two legs. Willingness to expose ones self to public ridicule has stopped more genius than ignorance ever could.
This was a surprisingly fascinating story and such a high-quality documentary. This should win some kind of award, so well done, and so interesting.
The Hunter/Weygar collection is impressive
Sad, Randy was only 59 years old. Sounds like he had an amazing life though, hopefully his legacy and collections will live on through his loved ones.
👍 Well told! Always difficult to do stories like this, and you succeeded! Thanks! 🤙😎

Wait, the UFO/car from Rick&Morty is made of "garbage", is that a reference to Alexander Weyger?
