On April 4, 2006, days before the release of the British feature film, ''[[Alien Autopsy (2006 film)|Alien Autopsy]]'', [[British Sky Broadcasting|Sky]] broadcast a documentary, ''Eamonn Investigates: Alien Autopsy'', presented by [[Eamonn Holmes]].<ref name=fortean>{{cite magazine |title=Santilli's Alien Autopsy film |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090703025506/http://www.forteantimes.com/features/articles/97/santillis_alien_autopsy_film.html |url=http://www.forteantimes.com/features/articles/97/santillis_alien_autopsy_film.html |archive-date=July 3, 2009 |date=May 2006 |magazine=[[Fortean Times]] |author1=Andy Roberts |author2=Dr. David Clarke}}</ref> In this program, Ray Santilli and fellow producer [[Gary Shoefield]] admitted that they had created the 1995 footage.<ref name="Eamonn1"/>

Shoefield and Santilli had filmed a simulated autopsy on a fabricated alien, based upon what Santilli claimed to see in 1992. According to Santilli, a set was constructed in the living room of an empty flat in Rochester Square, Camden Town, London. John Humphreys, an artist and sculptor, was employed to construct two dummy alien bodies over three weeks. He filled plaster cast sculptures of alien bodies with raspberry jam, sheep brains, chicken entrails, and knuckle joints obtained from a butcher to serve as organs. Humphreys also played the role of the chief examiner, to allow him to control the effects being filmed. There were two separate attempts at making the footage. After filming, the team disposed of the "bodies" by cutting them into small pieces and placing them in rubbish bins across London.<ref name ="Eamonn1">''Eamonn Investigates: Alien Autopsy'', [[British Sky Broadcasting]].

Alien artifacts, supposedly items recovered from the crash site, were depicted in the footage. These included alien symbols and six-finger control panels, which Santilli describes as being the result of artistic license on his part. These artifacts were also created by Humphreys. The footage also showed a man reading a statement "verifying" his identity as the original cameraman and the source of the footage. Santilli and Shoefield admitted in the 2006 documentary that they had found an unidentified homeless man on the streets of Los Angeles, persuaded him to play the role of the cameraman, and filmed him in a motel.<ref name="Eamonn1"/>
