What was he really?>Sandown, Isle of White>Two kids, Fey (age 7) and her unnamed brother are on holiday>Hear a siren-like wailing>Follow the sound across a golf course to a swamp>according to the BUFO journal, "a blue gloved hand appeared from under the bridge and a strange figure emerged. The figure fumbled with a book, dropped it in the water, then splashed about to retrieve it. The two then watched the figure enter a metallic hut — similar to those used on building sites except that it had no windows. It moved along with a strange hopping motion with knees raised high.">The figure comes back out with a microphone>The wailing begins again>The boy starts to run away, but the wailing stops and the figure asks "Hello, are you still there?">The kids approach, then finally get a good look at him
>"He was nearly seven feet tall and had no neck — for his head appeared to be wedged straight onto his shoulders. He wore a yellow, pointed hat, which interlocked with the red collar of a green tunic. A round, black knob was affixed to the top of his hat and ‘wooden’ antennae were attached either side. The face had triangular markings for eyes, a brown square of a nose and motionless yellow lips. Other round markings were on his paper-white cheeks and a fringe of red hair fell onto his forehead. ‘Wooden slats’ protruded from his sleeves and from below his white trousers.">He pulls out a notebook and writes down "Hello, I am All Colours Sam.">Fey reads it out loud>Sam and the kids have a conversation, exchanging questions>But Sam's mouth doesn't move when he talks.>On the unnatural whiteness of his skin, the children asked if Sam was really a man, which he replied ‘No.‘ >They inquired further if he was a ghost and Sam replied ‘… Well not really, but I am in an odd sort of way.’ >The children asked ‘What are you then?’ and Sam replied with a vague ‘You Know‘ without elaborating further. >Sam also stated that he had no name (despite introducing himself as Sam) and drew a sketch of what another ‘like him’ looked like, implying that there were other ‘Sam’s’ around. >Sam confided that humans frightened him and that he was afraid of being attacked, but if he was, he said he wouldn’t fight back.>The kids follow Sam into his hut, accessed via a metal flap.
>Sam demonstrates the way he eats berries>"Before eating a berry, he performed an odd ‘conjuring trick.’ He placed the berry in his ear, thrust his head forward and caused the berry to disappear and reappear at one of his odd eyes: repeating the process, the berry traveled to his mouth. (A possible explanation could be that he was wearing some kind of protective mask and analyzing the berry to check it wasn’t poisonous)." >The kids talk to Sam for a while then leave>The kids tell their father about it, separately, and they are each independently able to verify the details.
