Page "Alien autopsy" Paragraph 8

Santilli and Shoefield stated that they had " restored " the damaged footage by filming a simulated autopsy on a fabricated alien, based upon what Santilli saw in 1992, and then adding in a few frames of the original film that had not degraded.

They have not identified which frames are from the original.

According to Santilli, a set was constructed in the living room of an empty flat in Rochester Square, Camden Town, London.

John Humphreys, an artist and sculptor, was employed to construct two dummy alien bodies over a period of three weeks, using casts containing sheep brains set in raspberry jam, chicken entrails and knuckle joints obtained from S. C. Crosby Wholesale Butchers Smithfield meat market, London.

Humphreys also played the role of the chief examiner, in order to allow him to control the effects being filmed.

There were two separate attempts at making the footage.

After filming, the team disposed of the " bodies " by cutting them into small pieces and placing them in rubbish bins across London.
