The first time I ever tripped in my life was just this summer, mid-July-ish. My two best friends and three other college friends went on a camping trip to a small farming city in central Illinois.
One of my best friends, T, happened to bring some psychedelic mushrooms as a surprise and I was stoked because I had wanted to try mushrooms for the longest time.
During the second day of the camping trip, we hung out, went swimming, shot a shotgun at a guitar, launched fireworks, had a lot of fun and everyone was in such a good mood and the scenery was breathtaking. T and I decided it was ideal to take the mushrooms after a nice day of relaxing and hanging out. We both took about 1.7 grams of dried mushrooms and within an hour or so we were tripping. The trip for the first couple of hours was nothing unusual, but things got really strange after the sun set.
The sun set around 7:30ish... and thats when we decided to light a campfire. All 6 of us who came with us on the camping trip were sitting around this campfire... I, coming down from my trip, was gazing up at the stars, adoring the beauty of the summer country night sky while everyone else was chatting.
As I am gazing up at the stars, I see what i first thought was a comet. I was like damn thats pretty awesome, the last time i saw a comet was back when Haley's comet was around probably 10 years ago now. But immediately I realized that it wasnt. If it was a comet, it would've been on the news and I wouldve heard about it, much like how Haley's comet was all over the news back in the day. Also, this "comet" was coming straight down towards the earth, and it was 4 dark red/orange glowing orbs that were in a straight line coming down. I was like what the fuck. Its not an airplane, not a firework, what the fuck? So naturally, after staring at it for about I guess what was 20 seconds, i yell out to everyone else sitting around the campfire: "guys, am i just tripping or do you see that glowing thing in the sky too"... so everyone turns their head and we all watch this glowing orb come down, nobody says a thing as we all watch it come down. We watch it descend to the earth, getting bigger and bigger, being able to see more lights... finally, to our amazement, we see it land in a field about 1-1.5 miles away from our campground. Remember we are camping in cornfields/soy bean fields and there is no light pollution so we can see pretty clearly for far distances. When it finally appears to be ground level, we see about 8 large orange lights that are in the shape of a saucer. We are still in silence. This thing is HUGE... i would have to say it was about the size of 2-3 747's. We look at the lights and there is a faint flash and the saucer is gone. All 6 of us, without having said anything the whole time, immediately yell "THAT WAS A UFO". my natural tendency, still somewhat tripping is "T GRAB THE SHOTGUN". i was terrified that aliens were going to come kidnap us so we grab the shotgun and sit all in petrified around the campfire until more people show up later that night for our camping trip, at which point we felt a little more secure.
We tell the people who show up about what we just saw, but naturally, they dont believe us, because I was the first to see it and i was tripping, along with T. Of course, the other 4 friends that had witnessed it too back up our story, as they are stone sober, except maybe the 2-3 beers everyone had drank at this point.
Later that night, we find a golf club that we were using to beat up a guitar with and my friend T picks it up... however, as he picks it up, the club simply snaps in half. I really dont know if that had anything to do with the UFO but that was just odd.
Seeing an actual UFO the first time i tripped was the most terrifying yet spectacular moments i have, and probably will experience, ever in my life. I recount this story to people once in awhile, but of course nobody believes me because I was tripping, but i tell them to ask the 4 other friends who saw it while they were sober, and only then, do they believe me. occasionally, i meet people who do believe me, but those are usually people who like to trip as much as me %)
Not a single day goes by where i do not think about that night... my god, it was terrific. T and I talk about it everytime we see eachother and have this crazy theory about how we were meant to see it, because we were tripping and it would somehow aid in our ego deaths or expanding of consciousness or maybe it was syncroncy. whatever reason it came down for, im just glad i saw it, and i hope many of you will witness a UFO someday... its a once in a lifetime experience!
