In 1970, a psychopath in an asylum in India began developing strange physiological symptoms: his skin became scaly and stretched out of shape; his body temperature fluctuated; his hips rotated as if he had four legs; and finally, his back split open to reveal wings.

One doctor used a gun to start euthanising the victims, having to shoot each one in the head multiple times until they stopped screaming. After each individual died, however, they returned to human form. Fate identified this as the peak of a crisis of strange visions among asylum inmates worldwide, which Christine Summerfield linked to the sphinx invasion; however, she cast doubt on the veracity of the story.
