Initial data
Local well-known and former respected athlete Kalle Tiihonen had just come out of the sauna and was drinking coffee in the kitchen when he heard a sound resembling that of a swarm of bees, which was also heard by other family members. Then he had the feeling that someone was looking at him from the door behind him.
He turned and saw on the threshold a small creature about 120 cm tall, dressed in a tight shiny green suit and helmet. The creature had large, very dark, human-looking eyes.
Tiihonen thought that the creature had not entered through the door, for he would have heard any noise. They stared at each other in silence for a while, and then Tiihonen asked the creature where it came from.
"From space" was the answer.
Tiihonen wasn't sure if he heard it or if it was a mental message.
Trying to start a conversation, Tiihonen asked the alien if the Apollo 13 astronauts (then in space) would be able to return home safely.
"Yes, they can," was the answer.
Tiihonen talked to the humanoid about other things for a while, but couldn't remember later what he was talking about, other than the humanoid's promise to return.
Then the humanoid retreated and instantly disappeared, at which point the witness also heard a noise resembling a swarm of bees.
Tiihonen's 8-year-old son was sitting in another room during the meeting and heard his father talking to someone, but the separation wall prevented him from seeing the humanoid. However, he saw the bright object land on the grass outside through the window, and also saw it rise.
Tiihonen ran to the sauna where his wife was and told her about his observation.

Summary: Locally well known and former respected athlete Kalle Tiihonen had just come from the sauna and was drinking coffee in the kitchen when he heard a sound resembling that of a swarm of bees, which was also heard by other members of the family. Then he had a feeling that someone was staring at him from the door, which was behind him. He turned and saw on the doorstep a small creature about 120cm in height, clad in a tight fitting shining green suit and helmet. The creature had large, very dark eyes, with a human look. Tiihonen thought that the creature did not come in through the door since he would have heard any noise. For some moments they stared at each other speechless and then Tiihonen asked the creature where he was from. “From the space” was the answer. Tiihonen was unsure if he heard it or if it was a mental message. In an effort to make conversation Tiihonen asked the alien if the Apollo 13 astronauts (then stranded in space) would get back home safely. “Yes they will”, was the answer. Tiihonen spoke of other subjects for some time with the humanoid but could not recall later what he spoke about, other than the humanoid promised to return. The humanoid then stepped back and disappeared in an instant, at this point the witness also heard the noise resembling a swarm of bees. Tiihonen’s 8-year old son was sitting in another room during the encounter and heard his father talking to someone, but the dividing wall kept him from seeing the humanoid. However, he had seen a bright object land on the grass outside through the window and also saw it lift up. Tiihonen ran to the sauna where his wife was and told her about his observation. After the incident, Tiihonen was unable to sleep for three nights in a row, and experienced a sort of malaise for over a week.
