    Yup. Same person.

    Restating the puzzle for the new page:

    The whole world saw him get taken away. And he couldn't have been more satisfied.

    Status:Solved.

    He was one of these abductees that nobody takes seriously. But in this particular case, this abduction was filmed by a tv crew and shown all across the world. And he was satisfied because he had been proven to be right all along.

    The place that he is leaving and being taken to, are they relevant?

    Does it involve death at all?

    Not really. Where he is being taken to might have some relevance, but probably not in the way you mean.

    No death.

    In the sense of being kidnapped, is he actually being kidnapped, as in taken against his will?

    I'll say yes. I mean it's not as if he's in-league with the "kidnappers" if that's what you're thinking.

    The people/person or thing/things taking him, is it a single one or multiple ones?

    oops...I guess you can strike that question, since this doesn't involve death. ;)

    You're supposed to do yes/no questions. :p

    It's not a person.

    No. But that would kind of fit the clue. Doesn't it. Kind of.

    Multiple.

    Is he being taken by something natural?

    Is he being taken by something supernatural?

    Is he being taken by something living?

    Is he being taken by something that we think exists or know exists?

    Ehh. I guess I'll allow either/or questions. It doesn't offer that much more of an advantage. And it's not like we're in the lateral puzzle championship tour.

    Is he being taken by something natural?

    It depends.

    Is he being taken by something supernatural?

    It is probably considered supernatural

    Is he being taken by something living?

    Yes.

    Is he being taken by something that we think exists or know exists?

    Some people think, nobody knows. :)

    By the way, I have decided to skip work until this is solved. No way I leave on an unfinished puzzle. So others, JOIN IN!!!
