CERN "Zen Events" - 1985

Starting from 01:43 in the following video, mysterious CERN "Zen events" are discussed being particle collisions with a distinct unbalanced/off-track dispersion patterns. This programme was filmed in 1985 and the video explains that these collisions could not be reconciled with the standard model at the time:
