The Valley of Death... Suicide Forest...

the Mountain of the Dead...

For thousands of years, there have been places on Earth

believed to be cursed and evil.

And those who chose to ignore the warnings are said to have

mysteriously disappeared-- or died horrible deaths.

The locals are very reluctant to speak

about what's going on.

They don't want people to go there.

There is an area some people believe

possesses some form of negative energy.

Almost as if there's a curse.

But what is it about these various sites

throughout the world

that makes them so perilous that only

a brave few have ever been there, and fewer still have

lived to tell the tale of what they've seen?

This is a warning to people,

don't go to the place where these extraterrestrials come and

inhabit 'cause they will destroy you.

Millions of people around the world believe

we have been visited in the past by extraterrestrial beings.

What if it were true?

Did ancient aliens really help to shape our history?

And are they responsible for

creating some of the world's most evil places?

Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan.

Here, 60 miles southwest of Tokyo, at the base of Mount

Fuji, lies the Aokigahara Forest.

Each year nearly 100 Japanese citizens come to these

lush woods not to hike or explore, but to commit suicide.

Just about anywhere you are in the middle

of Japan you always see Mount Fuji, it's always in the distance.

So even when you're approaching near the region

when you're getting there by train or by car

has this kind of *** feeling

Then when you finally enter the forest at the base of the

mountain, it's super silent.

It's really quiet. It's so spooky.

Known to locals as "The Suicide Forest,"

officials have long ago posted signs

warning those who enter to turn back and seek help.

There's a car that's been abandoned for a few months.

I'm assuming the owner of the car went in from here

and never came out.

I guess they went into the forest with troubled thoughts.

The Japanese have a very close-knit relationship with nature.

I think a lot of people go in and they're undecided.

And they have the ribbons so that they can find their way back.

There's something about it that's so like appealing and

visually it's such a strong thing, but then you always know

that at the end of that there's somebody's bag

or there's somebody's tent, or there's somebody

who spent a lot of time trying to figure out what to do

with their lives.

They do an annual sweep and they usually find between

70, 150 bodies. They find a lot of bodies.

And the number has been increasing over the years.

Geologist and environmental researcher

Azusa Hayano has been studying

this phenomenon for the past 20 years.

Locals don't come here to commit suicide.

As children, they're told not to come near here.

They're told it's a scary forest.

Yes, we did find a skeleton today.

I think it's about a year or two old.

It makes me feel sorry for them, seeing how humans decompose.

I think it's impossible to die heroically by committing suicide.

The overwhelming majority of suicides are by hanging.

Some people who decide to kill themselves come here fast

and hang a rope from a tree then commit suicide quickly.

This is a farewell note written on May 18 about a year before.

His name is also written here.

He wrote "I came here, because there is nothing except bad

things in my life until now.

Please do not search for me.

"12:45 p.m."

He came in the afternoon.

Leaving a name is a little bit creepy.

But the dead body should be

around here if the suicide was only last year.

We actually spent two days there walking through the forest,

and we did find everything from places where

people had obviously attempted

to commit suicide or had thought about committing suicide.

We accidentally found this, but it's not a prank.

They nailed this character upside down

as a symbol of contempt for society.

No, it's more like a curse.

The curse is nailed in.

I think this person was tortured by society.

There is no question that according to tradition

that there are places that over time, have become evil

but there's some type of mystique going on there

that is not good nature, but rather evil.

According to local legends, people wishing to end

their lives have been drawn to Aokigahara Forest for hundreds,

if not thousands, of years.

But why?

What is it about this particular region of Japan that could

account for this strange, morbid behavior?

Mount Fuji is so neat for a reason.

It's the Holy mountain of the goddess Fuji

who once came to the Ainu, the original inhabitants of Japan.

She visited them and brought knowledge

So, it's a place of deep reverence.

Mount Fuji in Japan is called world navel

It's one of the many places on planet Earth

where according to legend, the earth meets the sky.

And where the earth meets the sky it's known as the heaven's gate.

It is a place where human beings pass from Earth to the heavens,

and a place where otherworldly entities, extraterrestrials,

pass from the heavens to Earth.

People go to Mount Fuji for the express purpose of

committing suicide to release themselves from this life to

pass through the axis mundi-- the world navel-- into the next

life, into a higher plane.

And that would explain the high level of suicides at Mount Fuji.

Like the Bermuda Triangle off the coast of North America,

Aokigahara Forest is also said to contain high levels

of electromagnetic energy.

If so, might numerous recent sightings of UFOs near Mount

Fuji be an indication that some sort of dimensional time-space

portal might exist here--

as ancient astronaut theorists believe?

In many areas where dimensional portals

may exist, we see magnetic anomalies.

In various places around the world, in ancient sacred places

they always show certain types of magnetic anomalies.

either negative or positive.

What we have are mountains where somehow

the energy seems to be of such a nature

that it transforms human consciousness

and makes it really impossible for us to live there

These are power places where weird things happen.

And the suicides are not necessarily related to the fact

that ancient aliens are potentially there in the past or

that modern UFO phenomena are happening there in the present.

But it goes to show that these are powerful places where weird

things happen and where things out of the ordinary happen in

the past and are happening today.

Could there really be a portal or star gate

through which the souls of the

deceased can journey to a new dimension?

And might this explain why people seeking death have been

drawn to this forest for so many years?

Some researchers and ancient astronaut theorists

believe such an outrageous idea is entirely possible.

But further evidence also suggests that some humans are

not so willing to give up their lives without a fight.

And that their journey to an

alien dimension may not be a positive one, after all.

February, 1959

A group of nine mountaineers embark on a winter trek

into Russia's Ural Mountains.

a mountain called Otorten, which in the

local Mansi language means, "Do not go there."

Among them were 3 experienced engineers

the rest were students. They were all young,

I think the oldest was like 37 years old.

They had conducted other hard treks to the area.

They were all experienced, strong-willed, determined people.

On their fourth night out, bad weather forces

the hikers to camp atop an area called Kholate Syakhal, which in

Mansi translates to "The Mountain of the Dead."

It was a very inhospitable, very strange,

very, very hard place to be.

Snow, cold, freezing winds, and very few living things around.

They decided that they would

spend the night of February 1st in an open area

not too far away from the top of the mountain.

They didn't want to go back to the forest, one and a half

kilometers, because it would

take them too much time, and they would lose the day.

Ten days later, when the nine adventurers fail

to show up at their destination,

military rescue teams search the area.

They find the hikers' camp abandoned

and a tent that is badly damaged.

The investigators determine that the tent has been cut and ripped

open from the inside...

and the hikers appeared to have

fled the area in only socks or bare feet.

This tent had been cut out with knives from the interior

It was absolutely obvious that

neither animals nor people had approached the tent to break in,

meaning that nothing from this Earth had approached them.

Something was pushing them to run away

without taking any clothing with them,

without taking any supplies.

They were behaving like they were in a daze, confused.

The investigators followed the trail to the edge of the forest.

But what they eventually find...

is beyond belief.

All nine hikers died.

They were discovered by Soviet troops,

in various stages of what can only be described as being mutilated

Their bodies were burned.

Some suffered radiation poisoning.

In one case, a hiker's tongue was missing.

They had prematurely aged.

Their skin was orange, their hair had turned gray.

What could've explained this?

Three of them had injuries that could be sustained

when somebody is hit by a speeding car, except the

injuries were inside.

Their ribs were crushed, like eggshells.

Some of them entered their hearts,

but there was no effect on their skin.

It was like a force was directed at all of them.

An unknown force had hit the hikers,

and it was very selective in hitting only the hikers,

leaving untouched the snow, the trees and everything else around.

The official explanation was that the nine died from hypothermia.

But the chief investigator refused to sign off on the report,

and instead resigned from the inquiry.

When the investigation was taking place

by the local officials, one of the people in charge was removed

quite quickly from the very investigation because he was

very thorough.

And local officials didn't want this to come out.

The authorities

did their best to cover the whole thing up.

It was practically forbidden to mention it.

At the end the bodies were buried in zinc coffins, I believe

so no one would see.

But there was enough of the investigation, enough people

had seen what had been going on

and were amazed at what they found,

including the coloration of the corpses when they were found,

and other things, that news broke out.

And this is one of the most

mysterious murder cases in the former Soviet Union.

I am convinced it was a murder.

But they were not killed by anything we know.

They were killed by an unknown force.

Years later, members of the search party spoke out.

According to their testimony, at the time of the incident,

strange orange spheres or orbs were seen floating in the sky.

These observations are from local people who saw

some unidentified flying

objects during the night of the hikers' deaths.

I think there is a clear connection.

The orbs themselves could have been a life form,

the orbs themselves could have been extraterrestrial probes.

Based on my research of different parts of

Russia in history, fiery spheres have been ever present,

including desolate areas like this.

Locals know they exist.

It's like a part of life.

They don't put too much attention to them, and they hope

and pray that the fiery spheres don't bother them, because

throughout the ages, most of the encounters were peaceful

everywhere.

But once in a while, like here, something goes very bad.

But what could have compelled nine experienced

mountaineers to flee their camp and run for their lives?

And what strange forces could have caused such violence

and death?

Could the hikers have been attacked by something

extraterrestrial, as ancient astronaut theorists believe?

During my research and my 30 plus years of investigating

UFO sightings, in particular, I've only come across several cases

in which aliens have actually attacked people like wild animals.

And some of these creatures had claws and teeth, and they would

jump on people and scratch 'em, and create claw marks in them.

But most of the time these encounters, the aliens or the

creatures just want to get away from humans.

There's no interaction whatsoever.

It could've been inadvertent.

The orbs, in probing the area where the human beings were,

created collateral damage.

Maybe they didn't mean to harm human beings.

Maybe it wasn't an attack as much as the power of these orbs,

the energy was so intense that human beings were prematurely

aged, irradiated, and suffered all kinds of lethal biological symptoms.

It's not a coincidence that UFOs were

reported by these hikers in the Ural Mountains in the Place of

the Dead, "Do not go there," or so on 'cause I believe that

many UFO sightings come in here from a parallel reality,

and they come through portals.

And this area may be a hot portal.

According to ancient Mansi legend, the

Mountain of the Dead, where the nine hikers' mutilated bodies

were found, was named after a similar incident in which nine

Mansi men were also found dead while seeking salvation from a

flood during ancient times.

But is it really possible that the Mansi-- and the doomed

expedition-- were attacked and killed by otherworldly forces?

Perhaps further evidence can be found deep underground...

not in the Russian wilderness,

but half a hemisphere away on an Australian mountaintop.

The continent of Australia.

16 miles south of Cooktown near the northeastern coastline

sits one of the world's most mysterious and menacing geologic

features-- Black Mountain.

Standing nearly 1,400 feet high, the mountain consists of

enormous black granite boulders piled precariously one on top of the other.

Called, "Kalkajaka" or "Mountain of Death" by the local

Aborigines, Black Mountain-- with its numerous dark

passageways and caverns-- is considered a cursed and evil place.

What the old people told us when

me and my brother Sam were growing up not to go into the mountains.

We wanted to go and have a look into the mountains

to see if there was a cave where you could walk in but they said no

if you do go in, you won't come back.

Black Mountain is the most fearful place

in the north Queensland area of Australia

The local residents fear to go there, because many people have

disappeared, as if the Earth

or the mountain itself swallowed them up.

The first documented disappearance

involving European settlers occurred in 1877, when a rancher

searching for a lost bull

near the mountain was reported missing.

Since then, there have been numerous stories of people,

horses and even herds of cattle disappearing into the labyrinth

of rocks-- never to be seen again.

Local police and trackers

looking for the missing have also vanished.

And pilots flying over the mountain have reported strange occurrences.

Pilots flying over the Black

Mountains have commented that there is unusual turbulence.

Of course they have magnetic problems,

they have navigational problems.

They've heard loud noises, cracking noises, explosive noises

They've heard like mournful, moaning sounds. So this is a very strange area.

Some Ufologists in Australia say that this is

the entrance to an underground empire, inhabited by an

unearthly race of lizard creatures and evil monsters.

The Aborigines don't call them

aliens, they call them demons or spirits.

The Tales of the Rainbow Serpent are among the

most important of the Aboriginal lore in Australia.

It can be a punisher of those who are out of line.

It sometimes swallows people.

It can bring chaos and destruction.

So it's a very awesome force.

The Rainbow Serpent is a creator for us.

And it was told by our people that the Rainbow Serpent

created everything for us.

It's a giver of life for us.

And this boulder rock here, Kalkajaka, is very important

because the Rainbow Serpent lives in the mountains here.

The Rainbow Serpent-- I believe if you disturb her or

do something wrong that you're

not supposed to, I feel that's when she turns against you.

To guard off any evil forces from the mountain,

the Aboriginal people perform a

sacred warming and smoking ceremony.

The warming and smoking is for us to introduce

people on our country.

And it's also significant to let the spirit know that we're

bringing somebody to come and visit.

So the Rainbow Serpent that lives here, he smells us and

he knows the tribal people from here.

We went there to look for all the mysteries

connected to this area.

And because this was a very abnormal place,

where people are disappearing, we wanted to find an explanation.

So we entered this mountain and there was a labyrinth of holes.

So we used rope in order not to lose our way.

And when we came into the middle of the mountain, we could go up,

or down, or to the sides, but each time our path was blocked

with sand and rocks, and we could not continue.

It's difficult to say if there are any chambers or vaults with

any monsters, or a gateway into a different time.

Although mainstream scientists believe the strange

disappearances at Black Mountain are most likely due to the

area's unique and dangerous terrain, ancient astronaut

theorists have another, more otherworldly, explanation.

The moment I hear about giant snakes and serpents

my mind immediately goes to all the other cultures around the world

that talk about similar imagery.

In the Hindu world, for example, we have the stories about flying

serpents, just like we have the similar stories in South America

with Kukulkan and Quetzalcoatl, this winged serpent flying

around in the sky which also were described as having been

enormous in size.

So the Rainbow Serpent at Black

Mountain, was that really a biological entity?

Or was it some type of an extraterrestrial flying machine,

a machine that when people came too close to it they fell ill or

died because of the fumes or radioactivity?

Might the Australian Rainbow Serpent

really have been some sort of an ancient alien spacecraft--

guarding Black Mountain from intruders?

If so, what might it have been protecting?

In 1872, an expedition led by William Hann discovered gold in

the nearby Palmer River.

Within 20 years, 55 tons of gold had been removed.

Gold was important to every society,

throughout centuries until today.

Gold does not rust.

Gold cannot be disturbed, except you melt it, etcetera.

Gold is very, very important.

Gold shines wonderful.

In antiquity, the extraterrestrials, the gods,

they asked humans for gold.

Humans had to produce in gold mines, gold and make offerings to the gods.

Is it possible that Black Mountain is not a natural

geologic formation, but was constructed to hide debris from

an ancient mining operation?

This could have been a place where thousands of years

ago, ancient aliens might've landed.

And the radiation deep inside the Earth is so intense, that

people are dying from radiation poisoning.

And that might well explain why the Black Mountain, in the outback in Australia

is considered an evil place.

I really believe that it should be really left alone.

Because they are real.

They do exist.

And I feel that it should be left alone.

If extraterrestrial visitors really did leave behind

high concentrations of alien contaminants at Black

Mountain, wouldn't there be other, presumably more

conclusive, examples? Perhaps there are.

And one of them is believed to be located deep inside Siberia,

in an area known as "The Valley of Death."

Yakutia, Russia

This vast region in north-central Siberia is one of

the most remote and least explored in the world.

Here, deep within the dense forests and thick marshlands

along the Vilyuy River is an area many refer to

as "The Valley of Death".

The Valley of Death in Siberia is a place where

local people will not venture.

Because they say no one comes out alive.

The locals are very reluctant to speak about what's going on,

and they don't want people to go there.

It's an area of such quote unquote evil

that the people who live there, the Yakut tribe

describe it as a place that is almost inhabitable.

In 1854, geographer and natural scientist Richard

Karl Maak was appointed by the Russian Geographical Society to

lead a scientific expedition into the dreaded Vilyuy River basin.

In his journal, Maak wrote of several large and mysterious

metallic objects that the local

hunters referred to as "cauldrons."

These pictures illustrate what people claimed

"cauldrons" had looked like.

The first picture shows a cauldron upside down with an

open entrance where even a man on his reindeer can enter it.

The second one shows another cauldron with some side supports.

The existence of the metal structures was

confirmed on three separate occasions between 1933 and 1947

by Mikhail Koretsky of Vladivostok who had traveled to

the Valley of Death to pan for gold.

He claimed to have seen seven dome-shaped cauldrons, each

measuring 20 to 30 feet in diameter, with odd and

unnatural vegetation growing around them.

Some of the people later reported loss of

hair, strange sickness affecting them, strange condition of the

skin that would never go away.

But what could explain such a toxic reaction?

And where might the dangerous cauldrons have come from?

In search of answers, UFO researcher Ivan Mackerle

and a team of scientists traveled to the Valley

of Death to try and locate the strange metal objects.

I didn't know if it was just a legend or if it

was real, so I wanted first of all to find this place and

investigate it to make up my own opinion.

Using a motor-assisted parachute to

search the expansive valley, the researchers eventually spotted

an odd circular pattern in a marshland.

When the team explored on foot, they found the ground under the

strange marsh area to be very unusual.

It sounded metallic and hollow, so we thought that

we found the sunken cauldrons.

Then we found another place like it... and even a third that had

higher magnetic variations.

All seemed like evidence of caldrons sunken into the earth.

But before they could explore the site any

further, members of the exploration suddenly began to

complain of strange, even bizarre, symptoms similar to

those described in local legends.

I felt very dizzy all of a sudden, lost my

balance, threw up and had a fever.

And I didn't know why.

I could not walk. I was losing sight.

I could not drink or swallow, and the pupils in my eyes were

dilating fast.

So I thought maybe I got some poisoning.

When I came home, I had a thorough checkup and the doctors

couldn't find any reason for my illness.

Have the explorers actually found the location of

the metal cauldrons?

And what was the cause of

Mackerle's strange and sudden symptoms?

Could it have been from some

sort of radiation deep beneath the ground?

According to local Yakutian legends, the metal cauldrons

were part of a powerful weapon

left behind after a great battle between extraterrestrial beings.

According to old legends, there was an epic

battle between the forest demons

named Niurgun Bootur and Tong Duurai.

During the battle, fireballs were shooting up from the Earth.

There was a horrible sound, and all the forest area was destroyed,

trees were upside down and rocks smashed.

And when everything cleared out,

the locals found a vertical structure that stayed there

for a while, until it sunk into the permafrost.

The Valley of Death is said to contain strange objects

embedded in the permafrost that are activated through the ages,

through the centuries, and basically shoot out fiery

objects that intercept incoming

objects that are out to harm the planet.

The local people there say it is some kind of alien

underground installation, that comes active and will shoot

comets or meteors or areal craft that are in the area

And, in fact, this may have been what caused the

Tunguska explosion.

Approximately a century ago, relatively nearby

the Valley of Death, we had a very enigmatic event happening,

the so-called Tunguska explosion.

An explosion of such extraordinary mass and such extraordinary impact

that it wiped out almost an entire area of Siberia

It was some type of an explosion that happened in

midair above the ground at Tunguska.

So, is it possible the weapon was deployed, maybe?

The only way that such a thing is in fact possible,

is if extraterrestrials had their hands in it.

Our ancestors could never have built a defense system like that.

So if such a defense system really existed, then it would

have had to have been 100%

extraterrestrial in origin.

This is such an extraordinary story, that really

we have to wonder whether it could potentially be real.

If it is real, then we are really confronted with evidence

that at some point in the past, something was going on on this

planet which is really ancient aliens in its most physical form

with ancient remains which could still be seen there.

Might the so-called "Valley of Death" really be the

site of an underground radioactive defense system, as

ancient astronaut theorists believe?

And might this help to explain the numerous accounts of

sickness and death arising from that region of Siberia?

Perhaps further evidence can be found deep underground, not in

the Russian wilderness, but

half a hemisphere away... in the New Mexico desert.

The Valley of Death...

Black Mountain...

Suicide Forest...

The Mountain of the Dead...

Just what could be responsible for the strange and deadly

occurrences at these and other so-called "evil places"?

There are some cursed places in this planet,

that are very strange. When you go there, things can happen to you.

Maybe it was always that way, but there are just some

areas down there you just don't feel right.

There's one specific case in France where by a very powerful place

which is actually called perilous because it is a perilous place to go

and it was said that this was a place where God had been seen.

So what we have here is something which happened for

generations, and really warned

off the next generation not to go there.

There is an area that they talk about in Lebanon

called Baalbek.

It's reported to be a landing site for extraterrestrials.

Some people also believe it possesses some form of

negative energy.

Almost as if there's a curse.

You can feel it.

It looms over you if you're out there.

There are some areas on this planet that seem to have an

increase in radioactivity.

What caused that?

What happened?

Was there an explosion?

Was there something from outer space?

Was there some kind of a craft

that landed that creates radioactivity?

Who knows?

But these are areas that we human beings ought not go.

There seem to be certain areas around the world

where there has been some kind of nuclear conflict or radiation weapons used

or that there are some kind of dumping ground radioactive waves

You have places like Mohenjo-daro in Pakistan, where

certain skeletons are radioactive, you've got areas of south west Egypt

where there are sheets of glass

as if from some nuclear explosion.

In ancient India, you have wars between gigantic tribes

sometimes, the gods, the so-called extraterrestrials interfere.

You can read definitely in the Mahabharata that

gigantic armies are killed.

You have some atomic bomb, or something like atomic bomb,

because it is described that the sun went up shining brighter

than the normal sun.

It was a gigantic lightning.

Then they describe in a circle

of about 20 kilometer everything was dead.

And the ones who survived had all kind of new sickness

which were never seen before.

Like the teeth falling out.

Today we call these kind of sickness radiation sickness.

In a number of occasions, you will probably

find that an evil place is a very dangerous place because

what is happening there might be the remnants of some kind of

ancient technology which was in operation there.

We know that, for example, in the mountains of Libya, there

are actually places where uranium was mined 8,000 years ago.

And in those places, clearly it is an evil place.

It should be avoided at all costs.

Might radioactivity, or some other

unknown type of energy left behind by extraterrestrial

visitors, really be the cause of Earth's existing "evil

places," as ancient astronaut theorists believe?

Eddy County, New Mexico

The Waste lsolation Pilot Plant.

Here, since 1999, the United States Department of Energy has

been storing radioactive and nuclear waste inside a salt mine

more than 2,000 feet underground.

Computer projections estimate that the walls and ceiling of

this "geologic lockbox" will collapse and entomb the toxic

refuse in about 1,000 years.

There have been all sorts of

calculations over whether it can stay there forever

this is the sort of rock strata, it's quite safe

and it's geological thought and so forth

but over the kind of life span of these substances

a half-life of uranium is 4.5 billion years

and plutonium is 25,000 years. So in 50,000 years still half of

the plutonium will be there.

And there's no way over that period of time that this stuff

won't become a very, very serious hazard for the human race.

But what if a nuclear waste disposal site

becomes compromised hundreds if not thousands of years from

now, and toxic radiation leaks into the surrounding environment

causing serious illness and even death?

Might future generations of humans also consider these

deadly sites to be cursed or evil as a result?

Are the Earth's so-called "evil places" really evidence of

extraterrestrial activity thousands of years ago?

Could they be a type of intergalactic "no trespassing"

sign, intended to protect us, to frighten us, or to keep us

from discovering the truth about our origins?
