Lead Mask Deaths at Niteroi: Two Technicians Found Dead Atop Hill After UFO Report
On August 20, 1966, a young man flying a kite on Morro do Vintém hill in Niterói, Brazil, discovered the bodies of two electronic technicians: Manoel Pereira da Cruz and Miguel José Viana.
Narration
An orange egg-shaped object hovered silently above Vintém hill, emitting blue rays.
A handwritten note beside the bodies ordered: ingest capsules, wear lead masks, await the signal.
Distant witnesses on Niterói streets watched a glowing object rise above the darkening hilltop.
A focused blue ray descended from the orange egg-shaped object directly onto the isolated hilltop summit.
Police sealed the Lead Mask Case files — no cause of death ever officially determined.
Two suited men climbed Vintém hill at dusk and were never seen alive again.
