This is the story about a forgotten genius,

a gifted sculptor, artist, and modern-day Leonardo da Vinci,

his fixation with the past, and living on borrowed time.

from a guy named Randy Hunter, who was promising

me the greatest nonfiction story never told.

It was about this inventor, who lived here,

I bit on this email, and for the last two years,

I've been coming to this guy, Randy Hunter's, place,

Meet Randy, a successful art dealer and fine art collector.

Weygers was born in 1901, in the Dutch East Indies.

As a teen, he moved to Europe to study engineering,

and then moved to the US to study sculpting.

Near the end of World War II, Weygers settled

from recycled materials, and objects crafted

that other people threw away turned him into a cult figure.

Youngsters traveled from around the world

to take his tool making and sculpting classes.

of hitting it big by finding an unknown artist

and making him famous, and figured that Weygers was his man.

down Weygers' sketches, personal belongings,

and all the finished artwork he could lay his hands on.

He produced a movie about Weygers, wrote a book

I could see the depth in his work immediately,

he's not the same guy that he used to be,

and Randy might not get to see the end of that story.

During his hunt into Weygers' life, Randy discovered

something extraordinary, hand-drawn designs

for an exotic aircraft, dating back to the 1920s.

Alex appeared to have invented the very first flying saucer.

it was undeniable that he was the creator.

he thought cities of the future would make full use of.

to all kinds of companies, telling them about his invention.

to spread, Alex felt the US military stole the idea.
