And how is the rabbit doing?
I like to think it landed gently in a cabbage field, only lightly singed, wondered what the Hell just happened and it continued on with it's day doing rabbit stuff.
I do sometimes wonder if some of the weirder UFO encounters, like this, might have a similar explanation.

That's pretty interesting though, hilarity aside.

I wonder if the police were right, and he had been (perhaps sexually) assaulted, but it was the 70s and men couldn't quite talk about that, or something.
Ah yes, the Lemmy UI goes a bit sideways when you try and post a new link into existing markup.
Ufology is interesting, but because it may be more about us than aliens.
That could definitely be a reason (my grandfather was gay in a time when it just wasn't possible to be open about it and it seriously impacted his life) although the damage to his trousers is unusual. I suspect the temporal lobe epilepsy explanation is right and he may have stumbled into a barbed wire fence or thorn bush.
Ah true, it's interesting he could smell things that others couldn't
Yeah, that is a key indicator of TLE.
In this case, "to shreds" is probably quite accurate.
I’d imagine it’s probably well done by now.
