A renowned CIA scientist actually believed the hoax Roswell UFO crash alien autopsy video was real, a strange new memo alleges.
The Roswell footage was first unveiled in 1995 by British entrepreneur Ray Santilli, who said he discovered the mysterious reel of film by chance when attempting to obtain archive clips of Elvis Presley from a retired US military cameraman.
Santilli went on to sell the footage to hundreds of TV stations across 33 countries, allegedly making millions in the process.
And even one of the US' most regarded scientists was seemingly duped by the images, according to the leaked memo, dated March 2001.
The document claims that former CIA scientist Kit Green was ‘briefed three different times during and after his tenure at CIA on topics relevant to UFOs and the Roswell Incident Alien Autopsy.’

Having left the CIA by 2001, the documents claim Green was summoned to the Pentagon by a ‘person in uniform’ to professionally evaluate the legitimacy of the footage.
He was shown a series of photographs of the ‘autopsy’, as well as a number of reports before turning in his own report in January that same year.
In summation, Green is said to have sensationally determined that the ‘Alien Autopsy film/video is real, the alien cadaver is real,' and he had previously been shown in 1987/88 Pentagon briefing.
An email included in the memo also details Green claiming that alien forensic tissue and organs are being held in storage at Walter Reed-Armed Forces Institute for Pathology Medical Museum in Washington DC.
‘The PR folks around Santilli are indeed not operating with a full set of dishes, are a little dense and not very nice to boot,’ Green said of those suggesting the footage wasn’t real.
But in 2017, filmmaker Spyros Melaris revealed he had helped Santilli fabricate the footage, setting up a fake lab in a London flat and using pig brains and animal organs to extract from the foam alien sculpture.

Despite the admission, the release of the memo has renewed debate among UFO researchers, leading many to believe that it's authentic.
However, speaking to the Sun, British UFO researcher Philip Mantle has branded it the ‘world’s biggest hoax’, having meticulously examined the footage for the last 14 years.
Mantle did however say that he believed the memo claiming to detail Green’s professional evaluation is legitimate.
‘It just goes to show that just when you think you’ve seen it all then something will crop up to prove otherwise,’ he said.
‘Green states that he had previously seen an authentic alien autopsy (some years before the Santilli film was released) and that it was the same as the alien autopsy film released by Ray Santilli in 1995.
‘Of course, Kit Green could not have seen an alien autopsy film or photograph that looked the same as the Santilli alien autopsy film some years before as the Santilli film is a fake and was not made or conceived until 1995 when Spyros Melaris appeared on the scene.
‘Spyros worked with UK sculptor John Humphreys to make the film - it really is that simple. Kit Green could not have seen what he claimed to have seen in the memo.
‘I have tried to point this out to others, but I simply can’t get around their belief system.’

During a string of one-man-shows in London’s West-End towards the end of 2017, Spyros Melaris insists he headed up a team that created black and white video that fooled the world in 1995.
Spyros confirmed the 'alien' corpse was made by Humphreys — a special effects expert who also worked on the iconic British TV show, Dr Who.
He told the West End audience that he managed to source 1940s surgeons' outfits and medical instruments from prop providers in the UK and US.
‘For me, it was just a joke, a bit of fun but I have learnt my lesson,' he said.
And he added that it was his brother and girlfriend who made up the team of 'government pathologists' that were filmed carving up the extra-terrestrial.
Mr Melaris said they used organs from cows and lambs from a local butcher’s for the alien's guts.
He even claims that, at one point, he considered using raspberry jelly for the being's brain but that it was 'too dark'.
To add further authenticity to his work, the 16mm film footage was spliced onto an original Pathe newsreel of a 1947 college baseball match in Roswell in a bid to convince experts from Kodak it was genuine.
Santilli reportedly made millions from the footage upon its stunning release.
But Melaris insisted he felt regrets his part in the scheme.
‘I would like to say now that there is a big part of me that feels remorse,’ he said during the 2017 show.
'I underestimated the response. The reality is that everybody in the UFO community took this film as the smoking gun, proof of UFOs and aliens.’
