Extraterrestrial Contact part 2 - Billy Meier story as you never heard

Eduard Albert Meier (born February 3, 1937), commonly nicknamed “Billy,“ whose UFO photographs are claimed to show alien spacecraft. Meier claims to be in regular contact with extraterrestrial beings, he calls the Pleiades. He also presented other material during the 1970s, such as metal samples, sound recordings, and film footage. Meier has been widely characterized as a fraud by skeptics and ufologists who suggest that, he used models to hoax photos claimed to show alien spacecraft. Born in the town of Bülach in the Zürcher Unterland, Meier joined the French Foreign Legion in his teens but says he soon left and returned home. In 1965, he lost his left arm in a bus accident in Turkey. Sometime later, he met and married a Greek woman, Kalliope Zafiriou, with whom he had three children. The nickname “Billy“ came by way of an American friend, who thought Meier’s cowboy style of dress reminded her of “Billy the Kid.“ This anecdote was told by Meier in an interview, with Bob Zanotti of Swiss Radio International, in June 1982. Meier claims his extraterrestrial encounters began in 1942, at the age of five when he met an elderly Pleiades man named “Sfath.“ After Sfath’s death in 1953, Meier said he began communicating with an extraterrestrial woman (though not a Pleiades) called “Asket.“ All contacts ceased in 1964, he said, then resumed on January 28, 1975, when he met “Semjase,“ the granddaughter of Sfath, and shortly thereafter another Pleiades man called “Ptaah.“ Other Plejarens, including a woman named “Nera,“ have since allegedly joined the dialogue as well. In 1942, five-year-old Eduard Albert Meier, later known as “Billy” Meier, wandered far from the bucolic farms, and sweeping countryside of the Swiss town of Bülach, and deep into the woods. Here he came upon an elderly-looking gentleman named Sfath, who was standing in the dense forest wearing garb that resembled a deep-sea diving suit without the helmet. Despite the man’s odd appearance, the little boy did not fear him, and the two struck up a conversation telepathically. This was to be the first of what Meier claimed to have been lifelong interactions with beings from other planets. Now an icon in the UFO community, heralding the coming of World Wars, intergalactic discoveries, environmental disasters, and more, Meier has garnered the attention of a global audience. Meier was born to an ordinary family with loving parents, who raised him and his siblings in a quaint village, previously unknown for anything extraordinary. As a small boy, like other children, he would play in the nearby woods, where his otherworldly relationship with Sfath would strengthen and last for eleven years. According to Meier, the two would hold conversations either outside or with numerous other individuals on Sfath’s spacecraft.
