    Antonio Villas Boas abduction claim

    Brazilian farmer Antonio Villas Boas said small beings took him aboard a landed craft in 1957, examined him and coerced him into sex. Physician Olavo Fontes examined him in Rio; Flying Saucer Review spread the story worldwide in 1965. Skeptics note it followed magazine stories of alien attacks.
