It makes my heart glad to see this. As a 15 year old kid, I took his week long class in tool making. At time a neighbor who also knew Alex would drive me and his grandson to school every morning. Sometimes we would stop off at the Weygers house for coffee. He was always friendly towards us kids and would break out his blueprints of the flying machines he had invented. I still have my notebook I kept when I took his course and an autographed copy of his tool making book. He was an amazing person and great influence on young me.
This does not negate the simplicity of the fact: there are UFOs - such secret espionage equipment (flying saucers, triangles, cigars - with glowing zones, plasma propulsion panels). This technology was launched in the USA in the 40s of the twentieth century, now it is available in many places (in China, in the Russian Federation, in oligarchic and criminal structures). To cover up, the special services have been spreading various misinformation for 70 years, producing myths and fakes. It is necessary to know about it, these are elementary facts. Of course, these facts, as such, do not exclude - neither aliens, time travelers, guests from parallel spaces, otherworldly dark forces, etc. You can play ufologically with these UFOs, but believe me: espionage technology is in the first place in this phenomenon. The US Congress has already begun to declassify it little by little, but they are afraid of lawsuits and other claims of deceived ordinary people.

Stop the cap 🧢
Rest In Peace Randy..Thank you for your extensive efforts over the years. One day maybe Alexander Weygers will get the recognition he so rightfully deserves.
so heartfelt! Weygers was a true legend, so awesome someone Randy could see him through his artwork. Beautiful story
now invent windup car that can go up hills windup going down.

This art dealer may have been somewhat obsessed, but the art and other artifacts like drawings from Mr. Weygers are pretty wonderful so I can see why he picked up this ball and ran with it.
It is mostly a question of technical innovability for his time, not so much a question of arts. But quality arts and technical innovations are of course related in terms of which types of minds are needed for these processes.
So amazing to see people who have a mission in life, who love what they do and are committed to it 100%.
At least with this video, we all learned the name of Alexander Weygers (as well as Randy Hunter).
To be honest. In a few days I will have forgotten him. Calling him a modern da vinci is a bit far fetched.
@peter kincaid
yeah right a better future is where we all gonna die
why even bother.
smh christain sound like everything is alway better
Great peice thanks
I really appreciate this positive outlook and reflection upon the content. Thank you for offering something of value to the conversation rather than being like the rest of the comments
True. Ashlee's story about Randy brings Alex's art and name to the fore. Randy spends a life and fortune trying to make Weygers famous and it turns out that a story about *his* missional effort finally accomplishes his life goal.
Both men were extraordinary and deserve to be remembered for their respective contributions! Read the pinned article, very well written. I hope Ms. Thomas is able to fulfill the foundation's mission. Thanks for this story, its inspiring!
Which pinned article?
@@austinscott4695 CZcams has changed a lot since 3-4 years.. it's not pinned anymore, it was a kind of "Annotation", a sticky note
Thanks so much for this piece Ashlee. It's always interesting to see someone who finds an interest and follows it as far as it can take him/her. Well done!
That’s sad he’s gone thank you for making a video about him so all can share in his life’s journey and passion.
Tesla did it 1st, seems nobody's able to give him credit
Teslas time...
came along well after the caves walls were painted.😉
Yepp.... Because he was on to Something big ... History was written so people would forget about him
The egyptians had the blue print
Tesla and Weyger were both forgotten about Joe. Intelligent men with ideas for the future normally are. It sucks I know.
@Albeit Einschtien wrong Tesla?
That art is beautiful, I really like the one where the woman is on her back as if she is dead upon the rocks and man seems to be crying with great sorrow. I could feel his pain.
Dedexedexqszazszzqzzzzazaza
That was amazing, piece of history, pieces of a life that needs to be seen touched and absolutely put in to memory, and a memory of a person that should be in a memory as a genus himself . Thank you for your time in putting this together!
Man with a legendary mind set, leaving happiness aside and living life own his own 🥰 truly inspire man, i just love his great work done by himself. 🙏
You are truly great when you die a no body and after death the world learned you were great
@waterside Dick
@waterside I think he is Great and I am sure Hundreds of thousands of us that saw the video learned that he was great. We dont have to dedicate our lives to someone that is great, but learn from what they have done to better ourselves. That's a word of Wisdom for you
Why is it after you die, then u become known? That has happened to so many famous, genius people from way back in History to now.
that would be great but what was this guy great for? Just because Bloomberg seems to have successfully fooled you with this story does not mean anyone involved has been elevated to greatness. If this device was patented in 1944 don't you think the military would have seized it, and him? People are finding it impossible to patent inventions like devices that can convert standard (gas powered) combustion engines into hydrogen fueled engines (Stan Meyer) without the government stepping in with seize and desist orders for national security reasons. How was anyone able to patent a flying saucer in the middle of WWII? If the patent is legitimate, and the military didn't notice it at the time, it means that the invention is not as amazing as Bloomberg makes it sound.
@@jadehunter7617 because death is like a gift. You never know what you might get until the gift (person died) opens.
Great story in a story. Weygers was a special very man. I had the privilege to study with him. Finding this just keeps his story going, yet with such a tragic twist.
I guess that no one else noticed that Randy looks almost EXACTLY like Alexander. Hello!
RIP Randy Hunter, you led a life trying to add to the positive rather than the negative, a love of the Arts is admirable and to try lift another artist from obscurity is a selfless act,here's hoping your spirit is in a better place.
R.I.P. Randy ❤️
I now know who Weygers is!
Traducción al espÑol
R.I.P. Randy...Your memory and purpose live on. And thank you for bringing your vision to light and to the public view.
Purpose??? All he did was spend millions of dollars building shrine to dead man! Where the Fuck did he get the money to do that? How did he make his money?
@@BIG_AL_ONE *"Well boys now that Teddy Roosevelt is dead, I guess we can tear down this statue. I mean cmon, who would have a shrine for a dead man?"*
Whatever it really was that made you bite on that original email, you might only ever know but follow that gut if you recognize it again. Great story, well shared by you and the tone of the story is fantastic, I only wish it was much longer. I imagine in the few short years you had with Randy, so much more was learned than what made it out of the editing room and with his passing, the story doesn't stop there. Now, in a way much as Randy is part of this fascinating man's story, you too are now a part of both of theirs.
A follow up perhaps 5 or 10 years from when when Randy left his own legacy behind, you'll take us on another journey, one which hopefully shows the spirit you three share continuing this on...
Captivating!
This was a surprisingly fascinating story and such a high-quality documentary. This should win some kind of award, so well done, and so interesting.
I envy the passion and have the utmost admiration for someone so talented who is prepared to devote himself to promoting an essential visionary we all benefit from being exposed to and protecting his priceless work....Human kindness in action...!!
Nikola Tesla patented his anti gravity craft in 1928. That thing was disc shaped.
Weygers definitely did not do this first. Maybe he came up with the propelled by air part first.
Vimana is pretty much disc shaped, that existed in ancient India.
46-b ETYKiAL exactly. I mean no disrespect to Randy but in comparison to Tesla he is neither a genius nor is his invention any ingenious.
Alexander Wygers seems more like another Jacque Fresco
46-b ETYKiAL it’s just like Tesla’s other than the propulsion system.shockingly that does actually matter
@Noble Sir Knight a bit harsh
Something definitely wrong with the noble dude....
A great story, I hope that recognition cones now for both men. When someone loves something like that, it's contagious, and just makes me want to live my dreams as well. Life is short, enjoy our short AF existence!!
I find it fascinating that some of the most famous artists in the world never got to see their influence while they were alive.
It's funny how humans put value on art after the creator is gone.
Ohmygosh! I thought it was an inspiring, admirable story and all, and then it dawned on me that *this* Weygers was the one that wrote some of the coolest blacksmithing books -- ones that I just LOVED as a kid. I didn't realize that his abilities extended beyond awesome blacksmithing.
His art and designs were beautiful.
I sincerely hope that his work -collection, projects, estate- will stay intact as much as possible (assuming his partner isn't exactly a spring chicken either), bc it would be an immense, historic, cultural, and artistic loss for the world!
So I do hope that someone with means (I'm talking to you, Bloomberg!) would secure these works in their entirety as is when the time comes...
bob lazar historical?? LOL i guess, if you want to say that snake oil salesman are a part of history.
@@raidermaxx2324
Erm... begging your pardon but, _are you on something?_
Enlighten me (please do), what exactly does Bob Lazar have to do with any of this (there's not even a mention of him in the video)??
But no, I'm actually speaking of the Dutch artist, Alex Weygers. You know? The guy that's the main subject of this video (more specifically, his legacy), and all of his works that are left behind?!
Sweet Mother of Pearl... 🙄
@@Faladaena yea maybe... i might have cross referenced some other comment from another video lol. Well, i apologize, and i assume you dont think Bob Lazar is a historical or cultural icon, right? lol
Bob Lazar, Bobito Lazarito affectionately called here in the Deep of South America is a Staple of what a Whistle blower is & he's a Genius! He came down here & gave a rare speech, paid for by a wealthy developer who's discovering ancient ruins that were erected with tools that aren't even of this earth. He (Lazarito) spoke about what he sae in those caves in the Amazon jungle... He said the ONLY time he felt this moved was when he first saw the saucer in S4!
@@pitolove71 Some of the content in Bob L.s claims proves well to me that he has never been in a lab of advanced sciences very long or with a leading position. He is just repeating esoterical ideas from average new age litterature. At the Area 51 he even took his friends out to the test site to show them the most experimental models. Not understanding that this was within the cold war of the 1900s, which has now returned. This means that the last thing you should do is providing your enemies with your best tech, by calling the local town populations and the press. He got suspended for that ,and he claims that he returned to get a leading job there. That is "possible" but unproved. Maybe he was the lead dishwasher, because that is where his level of physics theory is at. :)
“It was his spirit telling me to continue with my mission” randy you are a beautiful pure soul
Wonderful (if bittersweet) story. The diagrams and cut away illustrations are works of art as well. Thank you for this.
This video made me realize how important physical documents,photos,art,letters are...Imagine someone like that in the near future we would have no trace of their genious after they're gone....instead of old letters and diagrams it would just be emails and files locked in their gmail or Google docs accounts forever.
a beautiful story, thank you
sad to see that the saucer idea may have been taken from him without accreditation
Great story. Thank you for sharing the passion of two men. They finally meet in the afterlife.
Super interesting, both the beauty in what was made ,the mind of Randy and Alex....would have loved to meet and learn from these people .
Randy is a cool dude, and Weygers seems like a great man as well.
I know a Randy who seems to share similar personalities. Also his obsession with his passions. I love my Randy.
Leonardo Da Vinci and Nikolai Tesla are my visionary heroes. Adding Alex Weyger to my list. And Randy Hunt for his unseen efforts to create this museum, too.
Tesla was a mentally ill fool for a large part of his life, and put a lot of things down as inventions that were unworkable and silly. A huge part of his fame comes from these things, and from all the great inventions the government supposedly stole after his death. Except there were no great inventions to steal. At least half of what's written about him is pure fiction that almost everyone now believes.
Something got in my eyes at the end, stupid winter pollen
same here, I attribute mine to being human, and compassionate
goodness
NekoWinters: "Winter Pollen" would make a great band name!
@@shruggzdastr8-facedclown It's a book's name "Winter Pollen
by Ted Hughes" ... thanks to google LOL
Winter pollen isn't a thing you don't get pollen in the winter, it happens more in spring and summer. you get it from flowers!
"How crazy you are....depends on how much money you spend on your project...!"
- EPIC !
Time's more specific than money i guess. Spending most of your Lifetime on something people would ignore shows your passion to your dreams.
I would add : "In regards to your fortune" 1 million dollars for a billionaire is less than 1000 dollars for a normal wage worker
what an amazing artist, however i watched a documentary which showed that tesla had also drawn a design of a flying saucer.
Beautiful story and may he rest in peace with Wygers 💜💜💜.
Alexander Weygers was a top tier super-great artist. His sculptures were like Andrew Wyeth paintings in three dimensions. The fact that Alexander Weygers is relatively unknown, but people like Andy Warhol, Peter Max, and Jackson Pollock became famous shows just how rotten the NYC and LA based artworld scenes really are.
The drawings are extraordinary. Those other artist appeals to a different demographic, less precision more narrative,. It is easier to access then more technical renderings. Alexander Weygers is now a posthumus legend that had a living following,. Remarkable
Who's too say what art is?....... 💰
@@briansharp4388 me
It is not just NYC and LA. Imagine I have a very nice huge painting over 100y old. Everybody who sees it likes it but is worth only a 100usd because the painter is not well known. That means you pay mostly for the name = marketing/superficial aspect of it rather than for the work itself. Of course it is also understandable because the name will then make sure the work keeps its value. But it is also rotten as you say. But the advantage of this all is that you can buy very nice paintings for a bargain simply because they were made by unknown people!
Putting LA and NYC art scenes on blast without knowing that most art is for money laundering and most of elitist art culture came from Europe😂
Rip Randy Hunter you're really a hunter who did hunt for all alex's artwork and belongings... I respect you..
A truly amazing artist, caught up in a saucer dream like many, including myself, (and the US/ Canadian governments and the defunct Avrol? corp.) that could never fly because it was too heavy for it's propulsion source and needed futuristic an electronic microprocessor that did not exist at the time, to stabilize it.
It should never have been patented. It lead to many crushed dreams! A wonderful life though!
In the US, you can't patent something without a working model, or working process, such as with DNA. You can apply for a patent, but you won't receive one. This is how they stop the patent office from being deluged with thousands of nonsense "invention".
Vril and Haunebu craft and their connection to ancient vedic designs are fascinating.
As an artist, this is the kind of curator you dream of. Someone who can really see your value and what makes you special, and believes in you enough to fight for you.
To live a life of passion and purpose is to live life. Thank you Randy, now I know who Alexander Weygers is.
the pursuit of life is more dangerous than a life in pursuit
Alexander Weygers use stolen images!!
Obrigado pela legenda!
It takes an amazing talent to develop flying saucers to detail in blueprints, patent it, and NEVER attempt to make a SINGLE model in 45 years!
True genius, a believer in his own righteousness!
Passion of a man, if identified by him, makes him immortal. RIP Randy & Alex !!!! 🙏❤
Randy had the passion,money and enthusiasm to pursue and resurrect Alexander Weygers story. Admittedly I never heard of him until I came across this video. I always thought the military came up with this idea (shame on me) of course they didn't. Great story and so interesting. Thank you for enlightening me and shedding light an yet another lost story of our history.
Thank you for this information!
Sad, Randy was only 59 years old. Sounds like he had an amazing life though, hopefully his legacy and collections will live on through his loved ones.
RIP mr. Randy, your passion brought me a smile. Thank you.
yep dang I didn’t expect the ending when they said he passed away. Sad I hope someone finishes his vision in that property.
What a amazing video! Another forgotten genius, how cool is it that he created such futuristic concepts before any type of pop culture we can remember, what a visionary!
The Hunter/Weygar collection is impressive
Short but inspiring !. Thank you. Dave
amazing guy. humanity needs more of these guys in it. thanks for the share randy genius is only found in a selected few.
We don't deserve those geniuses.
I don't care for the UFO designs but the drawing skills and the sculptures were amazing.
What shape is best for rapid direction change ?
@@shaundavidssd probably disk
There are no "UFO" designs. He he... UFO stands for un-identified flying object. There is nothing un-identified with conventional mechanics such as in the flying saucer models of Weygens.
As a Mechanical Design Engineer, this is intriguing to me. Although, I'd prefer to have the craft levitate by using sound frequency.
Imagine how many others are out there? Thanks for this excellent docu,without people bringing these folks to the attention they deserve they would be lost,look how long for Tesla to gain his recognition.
Tesla was a mentally ill lunatic for most of his life. His fame comes from dimwits who think he had all sorts of futuristc inventions that the government stole. Just not true.
really appreciated this video and the article linked below… I had the privilege to meet Alex and Marian, taking one of his workshops in the mid- '70s.
Everything was stolen from Nikola Tesla
JESUSLOVEYOU
Well done buddy, I know who Alexander Weygers is now 😊
The One, yes sir
Exactly, I sure do.😊
A modern Leonardo DaVinci! DaVinci was and still is my hero since I was a kid!
Dang tbh I didn’t expect him to be dead 😓
thank you, Randy and Alexander!!!
Mesmerizing documentary!
💝 this. Tks for sharing his story.
,
Randy did accomplish his mission however, after 2017 the history of Weygers has spread like wild fire, its even written in some of the largest encyclopedias about this man.
Randy is one of the great men who died doing what he loved, very few can say the same.
He`s forgotten no longer thanks to you two . Great video.
Glad this man was interviewed before he.passed on. What cool creations and neat ideas! 😊
That was an awesome story, I love the dedication and commitment of these guys.
Alex you might appreciate MOLLER M400 SKYCAR.........he has persevered for 50 years !

RIP and thank you Randy.. I know who Alexander Weygers is now and his work thanks to you.
Come to India you will become mad by seeing our sculptures which were carved in B.C 🔥🔥
I've read about these drawings before. However, you notice that he doesn't mention How Weyger's flying saucer was supposed to fly, other than "on a cushion of air". Hovercraft aren't able to get a few inches off the ground, use a tremendous amount of power and fuel to do so, and rely on ground effect to work at all. They also require a rubber skirt around the bottom so the air pressure doesn't dissipate too quickly to keep them afloat.
I have never seen engineering designs of the engine that was supposed to power these flying "discopters". As far as I know, Weygers never designed an engine to power his air vehicle, even in blueprint form. I think he was more focused on the look. It would be interesting to know if he ever tried to build a prototype of the engine that was supposed to make his vehicle work.
This was super informative and cool thanks Bloomberg. Going to go do some of my own research on the man now.
Thankyou. I really enjoyed this look into others lives. It gave me a heart smile, in recognition of quirky creative genius and unrealised potential or disappointment.
A wonderful human to dedicate his efforts towards others recognising what is prolific creative talent.
As well as the striving, a dedication to carrying on, come what my.
May they and those who loved them, love them , or those who recognise that living fully, means dedication, striving, and faith that borders on absurd.
I strive to strive with feeling.
"Art is born, created, it neither mimics nor replaces life. It is, in my view, the natural by product of those whose spirits resonate most closely with what is the vast encompassing all spirit from which all that is was and will be first sprung."
Thank you.
When a rich man puts all the puzzle pieces together he does so with a knowledgeable man that has always put his puzzle pieces together and when the two men put all their puzzle pieces together they finally put together a perfect picture.
Entendí poco por qué no se mucho ingles pero me emocioné igual por el gran trabajo de este hombre ! Greetings from argentina!!
"Oh, Weygers, as in Alexander Weygers..yea I heard of him" I reply anytime anyone asks me anything.
Mission accomplished, Randy
This is a beautiful thing, the insistence on raising the awareness of this Great Mind (and one with incentive to achieve). To put someone who is no longer alive at the fore of priorities, and to essentially give yourself to the efforts that weren’t originally his own! Very beautiful. The ultimate compliment to an obviously ambitious dreamer.
FYI at 6:06 The AVRO disc was made by the Canadian AVRO company and sold off to the US air force.
I sure hope he was able to finish his dream!
Sir, the idea of vertical take off and landing is still in production today. VTOL aircraft take off using this same concept.
Hey! There was a glimpse of glassfiber home named "Futuro" in this film. Those were built here in Finland, and if I'm right, one still exists behind the museum WG in Espoo, Finland.
Big difference between round helicopter and a flying saucer. John Seral built the first true saucer using the seral effect motor in 1968.
Omg i live near Carmel and am so fascinated by this! I really wanna visit this place sooooo much
Careful how you say that name
@@reclusiarchgrimaldus1269 careful how I say what name?
That was inspiring story living out your dreams I hope I’m not the only person who thinks that.
LIKE ANY OTHER PROFESSIONS , WE HAVE THE ART DEALER, AND THE OTHER! THEY DON''T NECESSARILY BELONG TO THE SAME CLUB. ITS' THE DEPTH OF THE OBSERVERS MIND WHO SEES THE SAME OBJECT AND TO BE THE WORLD APART IN APRECIATING OWN DELUSION THAN CAPTURING THE CRITICAL DISTINCTION ENTAILS BETWEEN ONE AND THE OTHER ON THE FACT OF THE MATTER AT HAND.
Why else would they bombard us with countless Alien inspired films. Somewhere in there is the truth.

That was incredible, everything. And the art is museum pieces...
Beautiful...i think he will be in history books very soon.
I have always thought that as soon as you send in a patent, they see it and alert those who have paid the patent office to inform them.
Thanx for sharing this valuable information.🥰💞💓‼️
Thank you for your hard work Randy.
This was a beautiful story. Anyone would be fortunate to be so passionate about anything in life. Thank you for sharing this for the world to see.

Love always me
👍 Well told! Always difficult to do stories like this, and you succeeded! Thanks! 🤙😎
I used to draw an scheme of an ovni when I was eight using the concept of the Bearing, since I used them to build cars to play with in my childhood. So the center is static, and the surround area is non static, geneerating energy by using magnetism to avoid surface contact. I used to play with magnets when I was 2 years old so I don't see anything special in here. Sorry.
i actually came up with similar ideas after taking two years of a science degree..i patent the ideas to a specific date 15 years ago
♥️♥️♥️🙏 Great history, thanks for sharing this story🙏
So Hunter died last year and we're just hearing about it now? His work must continue. Tapping into the genius, vision, and creativity of a man like Alexander Weygers is to tap into the soul and lifeblood of humanity. Remarkable men, such as Weygers, Einstein, and Tesla are our guiding lights. Who do we have in our era, Elon Musk? He's good, but we need more like him.
*Randy Hunter, I salute your magnificent obsession.*
Elon Musk is hated by many, and isn't really comparable to the big names
I dont think i'd put Weygers on the same pedestal as Einstein or Tesla... What did this Weygers actually produce to help humanity? Other than illustrations that didnt get anybody anywhere...
Da Vinci, Newton, hawkings?
@Amr Mostafa *ahem* Elon-chan
Elon Musk admits that he is not a technological genius in any way. He is a self proclaimed business mogul. He knows how to market products. Nothing more than a glorified salesman. Which is why he pays more homage to Thomas Edison than he does to Nicola Tesla. The only thing Edison truly invented was the electric chair. The light bulb was invented by someone else. Edison paid for the rights to design and concept and took the purchased schematics to the patent office in his name. There are many brilliant physicists trying to build upon the ideas of the late T. Townsend Brown and the great minds before him. Dr Paul LaViolette and Dr Tom Valone are just two of these such people that are trying inform the masses of the energy and propulsion technologies that were developed back in the 1950's and prior to WWII. Elon Musk is merely capitalizing on Tesla's inventions from 100 years ago. Just like Thomas Edison capitalized on Tesla and every inventor around him. If it weren't for people like Edison, JP Morgan, Rockefeller, and everyone else who had a hand in the banking/oil cartels, our energy technology would have been allowed to evolve just like every other sector of technology. Instead, those people have successfully suppressed any advancement in energy and propulsion technologies so they could protect and expand their profits while keeping us enslaved to their dinosaur fossil fuel technology from the turn of the 20th century. Tons of advancements were made in this field many decades ago. Don't expect those ideas and inventions to ever be televised any time soon though. The people that own the 4 biggest banks also own the 4 biggest oil companies. They also own the biggest media outlets. Whoever controls the money controls the laws, whoever controls the media controls the message, and whoever controls the energy controls the world
He brought him into our household in Qld. Australia 👏👏👏❤❤❤️
