On April 2, 1968, a Muslim bus mechanic named Farouk Mohammed Atwa saw what he thought was a woman preparing to attempt suicide by jumping from the roof of the Church of Saint Mary in Zeitoun, Egypt. Police,who were alerted to the sighting dismissed the image as a reflection of the light from street lamps, but crowds still gathered because they believed the apparition was that of the Virgin Mary. The sightings continued until 1971, and all in all, it is believed that hundreds of thousands of people, including prominent church and government officials, witnessed the apparition. In fact, several newspaper photographers and television cameras managed to capture the apparition, and no one could explain it to be of a natural origin.
