Botkina Natalia Leonidovna writes to the Commission on the:

I consider it my duty to inform you that I saw an interesting phenomenon many years ago. I've remembered it for the rest of my life. No one was interested in this before. I am 49 years old now. I didn't try to remember anything on purpose, so I don't remember exactly. I studied in the 4th, 5th or 6th grade (so in 50, 51, 52) in the evening shift. She lived on Chugunnaya Street, went to school far away - on Baburina Street.

One day I was walking home from school in the evening. Most likely he will know in autumn or winter, because it was cold and dark. The sky was very dark without clouds. On the way it was necessary to cross the bridge (we called it humpback) over the railway tracks. I started to climb the bridge and suddenly saw that an unusual object rose up from behind the trees and the fence. He appeared from the direction of the Finlandsky railway station, flew over the high bridge and disappeared somewhere below on the other side of the bridge. It was like 2 deep plates stacked together, measuring less than 1 m in diameter, bright as the moon, but there was no glow around. There was no rotation, he just flew over the bridge in an arc, over its highest point.

When I went up to the bridge, there was nothing else to be seen.

Now there is no such bridge, there is no other one built instead of it.

I also want to say that at home, where I live now, there is a chamfered hole in the glass, which suddenly appeared a few years ago. One glass is broken, the other is missing and there was nothing between the frames.

 I don't believe in anything supernatural, but it's interesting.

Holes from bullets, stones and metal balls

On the windows of houses, regardless of the floor, there are holes of unknown nature and characteristic shape. Very often, if there are several glasses, only one is broken. At the same time, the inner honor of the glass is usually damaged more than the outer one. These holes are often associated with the phenomenon of poltergeist, and the phenomenon itself is called "ghost glazier" or "ghost sniper".

In fact, such holes are obtained as a result of the impact on the glass of balls from bearings, bullets from pneumatics and just small pebbles.
