Over the following months, he experienced strange events, including large footprints found near his car and missing time. During a hypnosis session, he recalled being taken aboard a spaceship and communicated with the beings telepathically. The encounters left Zaneta traumatized and confused. He underwent medical evaluations, which confirmed he was sane.
