Ninjas on Dragon-Back to Assault US Embassy


A photo of two peculiar dragon-shaped objects taken from a plane flying over Tibet’s Himalayas piqued many users’ interest when displayed on a Chinese website. The photographer is an amateur.





But for me the most interesting part of the article is this:

In the previous dynasties in China, there had been many documents recording eyewitness accounts of magical dragons. The most amazing events are the various “falling dragons,” dragons that suddenly fell to the ground under peculiar circumstances, and were witnessed by many. A relatively recent tale occurred in the puppet Manchuria regime in August, 1944. A black dragon fell to the ground at the Chen Family’s Weizi Village, about 9.4 miles northwest of Zhaoyuan County, on the south shore of the Mudan River (the old name of a section of Songhua River) in Heilongjiang province. The black dragon was on the verge of death. The eyewitness said that this creature had a horn on its head, scales covering its body, and had a strong fishy smell that attracted numerous flies…

This just speaks to me of the UFO crash landings that either did or did not happen in the US in the late 1940s. Because think of it this way, if American rednecks are likely to see some otherworldly creature or machine (or perhaps 4-dimensional cross section of time-space, refer to The Invisibles) as a flying saucer, then what are Chinese farmers likely to see instead? A Black Dragon. It's all about cultural history and what we're able to see; also refer to the film What the Bleep do we Know for more.

The journalist (?) finishes the article with this nice piece of news:

The records from previous dynasties also mentioned the connection between the emergence of these kinds of mysterious creatures, “dragons,” and the transition of dynasties on earth.

Well if so, the dragons are about 7 years early, but you won't hear me complaining. RAGNAROK AHOY!
