This is my last response to this ridiculous thread.

If you really want to do some research into the most likely explanation for your experience, there is plenty of info out there.

If you want to continue to believe your misinterpreted hypnogogoc hallucinations, carry on. 

Just know, that if you hear people claim they are abducted by aliens in the night, you have zero basis to doubt their claims. 

I completely aware that something as this experience is merely impossible to believe. That what i was thinking when i was living amongst religious people, i was trying so hard to believe in God, Angels, and the rest of the Biblical stories. Well...  many Muslims believe that Muhammad really was abducted by an Angel and lifted up from earth to heaven, then came back to earth... These kind of events seems illogical to grasps. I myself believe in evidence... I told this experience to a priest and he didn't take me seriously, he said:'' probably it was just a dream", or "Hallucination".  Its something natural to disbelieve in cases similar to this.

Finally, his color was almost sliver, or chrome.  I know that if i told this description to a sketch artist, he will think i am a lunatic and crazy, and they will probably send me to a mental institute.  But, i was shocked when i noticed that Daniel gives the same kind of description of the Angel. 

Its gotta be the truth.
What version of Daniel are you using?

A quick perusal of the King James version shows that Daniel 10-5 thru 10-7 gives the following details:

  1. Clothed in linen
  2. Loins girded with gold
  3. Body like beryl
  4. Face appeared like lightning
  5. Eyes as lamps of fire
  6. Arms and feet like in color to polished brass
  7. Voice like the voice of multitudes
Daniel mentions this as a 'man' not and 'angel.'

Matched to your description:
1) clothed in white (how did you know it was linen?)
2) no mention of loin girding
3) no mention of beryl
4) face shining (chrome vs lightning)
5) eyes not seen
6) feet noticed, but color not mentioned
7) voice not mentioned
You mentioned wings like a stereotypical angel but Daniel 10-5 thru 7 did not.

Despite the near complete disconnect between your description and that in Daniel, you conclude that you were visited by an angel rather than had a (subjectively real) sleep paralysis experience.
Sheesh, you're kidding, right?

Well, Daniel spoke to him and took a good look of the Angel. That angel took the form of a man, i guess. 

The spirit i saw:
1) clothed in white. (I assume it was a garment)
2) I saw a face with no features (his face was shining) 
3) Human leg (color was silver, it was also bright as chrome or metallic)
4) A belt (I saw something wrapped around his waist but didn't know how to describe it)
5) I saw wings, more than 4, it was sparkling as well.
6) The spirit didn't speak to me. (I am not sure why?)

Daniel uses metaphors to describe the man, I am using simple words.
