Wyoming incident: truth, fiction and consequences

The "Wyoming incident" is what is called the strange (and many believe, mystical or mysterious) event that occurred on November 22, 1987. Around him there are still many speculations. History has become overgrown with details, and today it is already impossible to determine what was true and what is the fruit of imagination. We only know for certain that on this day the broadcasting was interrupted, and then strange pictures appeared on the screens. They say that after the end of the video, which lasted only 6 minutes, many went insane. So what really happened? What was the Wyoming incident?

One of the popular versions

11/22/1987. Most residents of Wyoming, clinging to the screens, are fascinated watching the next series of the multi-series film "Doctor Who." At 23:15 the movie is interrupted, and a strange screen saver appears on the screens: "333-333-333 We Present A SPECIAL PRESENTATION" (We show a special idea. "The big letters seemed to be reflected at the bottom of the screen, and the black and gray color of the screensaver was unpleasant for Nerves, then scary, grinding music poured from the screens, and later they allegedly established that it was a very slow musical accompaniment to the movie "Silent Hill", but perhaps it's just speculation. "The video began to appear." The inscriptions "You are sick," " Why do you hate? "," We are watching you. "Paral tionary appeared on the screen projection of human heads. They reflected different emotions and appeared for a fraction of seconds, but it was clear: these people have long been dead. Probably, this was facilitated not only by the expression of persons, but also by their complete symmetry. After all, it is known that only the dead can be absolutely symmetrical. Six minutes later, the screen saver again appeared with the numbers 333-333-333, and the video ended. This is the part of the story that is most similar to the truth. Next, the Wyoming incident looks like any popular "scarecrow". It is said that dozens of people lost consciousness or inflicted fatal wounds. Others went to the hospital and went crazy. Neither confirmations, nor denials this story has not.

What could it be?

History interested everyone. Mystics assured that the broadcast was conducted from space, and on the screen the faces of aliens surfaced. Religious fans, as always, argued that the end of the world is coming. "Technicians" tried to determine how to technically explain the Wyoming incident. It turns out that it is not difficult to create such a thing. You just need to have the equipment capable of giving a stronger signal than the one that comes from the TV tower. Some thought that in 1987 it was impossible. Not true. Even then, there were video recorders, and the technique that watched the airwaves was worth nothing. More controversy about the sound accompaniment. It is said that binaural beats, infrasound or other "dangerous" modulations were used. It's possible, but on equipment that costs a lot of money. It is unlikely that the organizers of the rally owned such equipment.
