He provides a lot more information to back up his speculations than Frantzis does, and it's not based on Ueshiba learning stuff in Manchuria.
Hahahahaha! That is almost as funny as the photoshop of John Painter with his "teacher" a while back!

While I was still his student, I persuaded BKF to give a one-hour talk on his experiences with Ueshiba for the first time ever. Interesting stuff. We sent out info about it to more Aikido-clubs than I could count, both in Sweden and in London, and got five Aikidoka coming. The talk was given in an Aikido-club, and none of the teachers came either.
