In a September 2026 interview, David Grusch described a video that he said showed bodies being collected. The figures appeared human-like to him, with bluish-white skin. This was reported by the website Curiosmos on October 21.
This description differs from the image many know from movies: small creatures with large eyes. But even a human-like appearance doesn't reveal who is in the video. To determine that, more than one person's description is needed — and the video itself was never presented.
He Didn't Examine the Bodies Himself
Grusch is a former intelligence officer who gained prominence after his appearance before the US Congress in 2023. In the interview, he described images he claimed to have seen. He did not state that he examined the bodies himself.
According to him, the video showed a scene where bodies were being collected, not a close-up examination of a body. This distinction is important: footage of a collection might show figures, but not necessarily reveal what they are or where they came from.
Details Remained Classified
Grusch stated that he did not provide details that could expose his sources — the individuals who gave him the information. Without such details, it's impossible to trace when or where the video was filmed, or the team involved in the collection.
The video was not shown during the interview. Therefore, readers cannot compare his description with what appears in the footage. Even if figures with light skin were visible, color in an image can change due to lighting, and camera angle can alter a body's appearance. An image alone also doesn't prove the origin of the figures.
What Remains Unknown
It is unknown if the video exists, where and when it was filmed, or who appears in it. Grusch spoke about images he saw, but the video was not made available for independent verification as part of the interview.
For now, we have a description of figures that appeared human-like — and a blank screen where the video should have been.
