The term alien autopsy is used in ufology to refer to an alleged examination of an alien corpse, performed in 1947, and recorded by the American Government on a black and white 16 mm film. The same is also known as Santilli Footage, because Ray Santilli purchased the footage.
The term alien autopsy is used in ufology to refer to an alleged examination of an alien corpse, performed in 1947, and recorded by the American Government on a black and white 16 mm film. The same is also known as Santilli Footage, because Ray Santilli, a London-based Merlin Group producer, is the one who purchased back in 1995 the footage (for £ 100'000) .
Santilli has explained how he came across a retired cameraman who offered him the alien footage. Quoting Santilli himself:
"Following my purchase of the film from the original the cameraman he asked if I would be interested in any other type of film and he explained in 'short form' the events he found himself filming 1947. He explained that the footage he was offering to me came from the Roswell crash, that it included debris and recovery scenes and of most importance footage of an autopsy."

The lot included more than the autopsy: 2 reels of film, 21 safety prints and one negative. From this, Santilli has put together:
|
the famous alien autopsy everybody has seen on TV; a tent footage, showing a gray being examined inside a military tent; a second autopsy of a similar, less injured being; the wreckage footage, showing some I-beams and control panels. |
The second autopsy is a genuine rarity. It seems Santilli gathered only a few selected watchers for this private show (Italian journalist Maurizio Baiata was one). Such second autopsy has never been shown publicly. It was purchased by Volger Spielberg. The tent footage was later identified as a hoax.
The Alien Body
The alien body is something unique. Next, is a detailed description that includes many details that emerged only after careful study of the video.
The body (134 cm high) appears to be humanoid and seems to be a female. She has what appears to be a vagina and even tiny breasts. The head is larger than a normal human head. The ears are low-set. The eyes are bigger and each is covered by a black lens. She has two cusps instead of teeths. The neck is wide, surely because of the cranial size. The thorax is quite big, almost swollen (as a corpse should be). Later in the autopsy, it is clear such is her real anatomy. Both the hands and feet have six fingers.
Overall, the "alien" looks quite massively built, quite muscular. By noticing the size of the head, it's evident why: the neck and the body have to support its weight. It may be that the thorax has that shape to counterbalance the skull. Yet, while calling the being a humanoid, she lacks the facial expressiveness typical of the Homo sapiens. A genetic anomaly can justify some of her physical features, but definetly not all, not at once. The six fingers anomaly (polydactyly) can be found in humans, but mostly not in such harmonic way (there are exceptions) and not both in hands and feet at the same time. The Turner syndrome inhibits the secondary sexual features and typically features low-set ears, broad chest, sterility and excess skin folds around the neck. The Down syndrome features a big neck. Hydrocephaly can explain the size of the head. There could be 16 genetic anomalies involved in a corpse like the one shown in the Alien Autopsy. How likely would a similar coincidence occur?
