| Incident Name: | The Cash-Landrum Incident |
| Incident Date: | December 29, 1980 |
| State/Provence: | Texas |

| Country : | USA |
| Shape : | Triangle |
December 29, 1980 will live on forever in the memories of Betty Cash, Vickie Landrum, and Vickie’s seven-year-old grandson, Colby. The trio was driving north of Houston, through the southern tip of the east Texas piney woods, when something terrifying happened. A massive triangular UFO hovered above the woods, about 130 feet away, causing Cash, the driver, to slam on her brakes.
Both Cash and Landrum exited the car to investigate, but were immediately subjected to intense, burning heat, felt on their faces and bodies. The heat was so intense that Landrum left a handprint on the dashboard of their car upon her reentry. Through heat and fire, the UFO rose and was suddenly surrounded with a number of helicopters before all the aircraft disappeared from view.
Soon after arriving home, the three witnesses, Cash most severely, fell ill and were covered in blisters, experienced nausea, loss of hair, red eye, intense headaches, and even diarrhea. A few days later, Cash was admitted to the hospital because of her unbearable symptoms that had left her unable to walk and barely conscious. The remaining two victims experienced less severe symptoms, to their dismay. Doctors later described the unusual case symptomatic of radiation poisoning from a massive event such as Hiroshima.

On December 29, 1980, Betty Cash, Vickie Landrum, and Vickie’s seven-year-old grandson Colby witnessed a bizarre and unsettling UFO encounter in East Texas. The incident remains one of the most well-documented and intriguing UFO cases in history.

The Event
As they drove home from dinner, the trio saw a massive, diamond-shaped object hovering above the trees. The object emitted intense heat and flames, causing discomfort and pain. According to their accounts, the UFO was approximately 40 feet long and 20 feet wide, with a flat top and bottom, and small blue lights ringing its center.
After a few minutes, a group of 23 helicopters, later identified as Boeing CH-47 Chinooks, appeared and surrounded the UFO. The helicopters had US military markings, but the witnesses claimed they were not familiar with the insignia.

Health Consequences
Following the encounter, all three individuals suffered severe health issues, including:
Radiation poisoning-like symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and skin burns Hair loss and skin lesions Long-term health problems, including breast cancer (Betty Cash) and cataracts (Vickie Landrum)

Investigation and Controversy
Aerospace engineer John Schuessler, a renowned UFO researcher, investigated the incident and collected extensive evidence, including witness testimony, photographs, and physical samples. Schuessler’s book, “The Cash-Landrum UFO Incident,” provides a detailed account of the case.

Despite the witnesses’ claims, official agencies, including the US military and NASA, denied any involvement or knowledge of the incident. Skeptics have questioned the validity of the witnesses’ accounts, citing inconsistencies and alleged fabrications.
