John Jacob Swaim

Former farmer and UFO witness

John Jacob Swaim was a 12-year-old boy who lived on a farm in Alabama in the 1950s. He is best known for his alleged encounter with a UFO in 1954, which he described as a small, strange entity standing in the wheat. Swaim's story has been widely reported and has been the subject of much speculation and debate. He has given several interviews about his experience, but has largely kept a low profile since then.
