The Encounter

Dan Harari is a longtime resident of Beverly Hills, California, and a publicist in the entertainment industry. He had a significant UAP encounter at age 14 while riding in his father's car. They saw a giant silver V-shaped craft hovering directly above them. Dan was excited and wanted to report it, but his father showed no interest. Years later, after his father's death, Dan recalled the experience, which inspired him to write a book about a character who becomes a conduit for aliens wanting to help humanity. The encounter deeply influenced Dan's interest in UFOs and led him to become a researcher and member of UFO groups, but he did not mention any lasting physical effects or trauma from the experience.
