Wall of flame between outcrops in Namibia

Namibia (South West Africa), between two outcrops, Namibia

What was reported

Also from her December 1992 talks: a man told the audience about a wall of flame seen between two rock outcrops in Namibia. Hind says she is sure this is a natural phenomenon but would like to investigate its origins. No date, place or witness name is given. She uses it, with the swimming pool and abduction cases, to argue that field work turns up no shortage of reports, many explicable as meteors or satellites but some not.

A curtain of fire in the Namib

Thirty people at a desert braai watched a wall of fire eight storeys high switch on between two hills, and off again. At dawn the sand was not even scorched.
