- Yesterday, a man in Ottawa flew to work by turning into a bird. Many people believe that he is an alien. "How else," Jim Smith asks, "was he able to do this?" Although you may think that we have an animagus (from the Harry Potter series) among us, the man seems to have no memory of ever turning into a bird before. The man summed up his experience, "I was running to catch my bus, then I was soaring over it." The whole world is wondering, "How did he do it?" Will scientists ever find out how this man did it? We are all holding our breaths.
