Max Spiers was a British ufologist and conspiracy theorist who became well known in the conspiracy theory community following his death.[1][2] He believed in a wide variety of conspiracy theories and paranormal phenomena, including that he had been altered as a child to become a psychic "super-soldier".[1] He was the grandson of Percy Herbert, and the father of two children.[3]
He died at the age of 39 on 16 July 2016 in Warsaw in Poland, following a high fever.[1][2][4] He is reported to have vomited copious quantities of black fluid prior to his death.[2] The cause of his death has not been conclusively determined.[1] His fiancee is reported to have expressed concern that his death involved foul play,[3] and his death has prompted speculation among other conspiracy theorists.[5][6]
A British inquest into his death was started in December 2016, but its proceedings were adjourned until February 2017.[2]
