lives of many others at risk. clayton sandell, abc news, denver. >> our thanks to clayton there. major league player bill buckner has died after an outstanding career mostly with the boston red sox. but he'll forever be remembered. not for his accomplishments, but for an error in game six of the 1986 world series. he let a slow roll pass between his legs. that allowed the mets to win that game and go on to win the series and boston's championship drought continued. buckner was blamed and it took nearly 20 years and a boston title for the wounds to heal. bill buckner was 69. we now have a medical alert for you about burnout. it's now recognized as a legitimate medical condition by the world health organization. the organization's latest health book describes burnout as a syndrome resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed. this is a first for the w.h.o. symptoms include exhaustion and reduced productivity at work. and the world health organization also added gaming

"theodore roosevelt." >> oh my gosh, dude. wow. >> reporter: the pilots reporting that the ufos had no engine or infrared exhaust but they were able to fly up to 30,000 feet and reach hypersonic speeds. what could it be? >> a monster from an unknown dimension, it's so ancient it doesn't even know its true home. it enslaves races of other dimensions by taking over their brains. they can get highly developed power. >> reporter: probably not that. some folks suggesting drones. an astrophysicist at the harvard smithsonian center saying it's more likely bugs in the coding or atmospheric effects and reflections. still, pilots have trouble explaining what they saw. over and over again for nearly a year. >> there's a whole fleet of them. >> reporter: the ufos apparently accelerating to hypersonic speed, stopping suddenly, and making instantaneous turns. something far beyond the physical capabilities of a human crew. unless it's this human crew.
3:25 am
