In 1967, a 50-year-old Canadian mechanic took a weekend trip to one of his favorite spots for rock collecting about 100 miles east of Winnipeg. Unfortunately for Stephen Michalak, the weekend getaway turned out to be anything but relaxing. Michalak returned from Falcon Lake a shell of a man, covered in mysterious burns and recounting a tale that would become Canada’s best documented UFO case.
