- Tonight on "the
mproof is out there,".

Was this claw print
made by this creature?

- [Chloe] I swear to god
I'm not (beep) With you.

- [Tony] What force
caused this blue flash?

- [Erica] What was that?

- [Chase] It's an error
in our time-space fabric.

- [Tony] And who made these
tracks on the lunar surface?

- It has got to be
some intelligent species

that created it.
(Explosion booming)

(Suspenseful orchestral music)

- [Tony] Around
the globe are videos,

- [woman] What the heck is this?

- [Tony] Photos, and
sounds that defy explanation.

(Low humming)

- [Man] Is it some kind
of unidentified object?

- [Man 2] A plane that
was literally frozen in the air.

- [Tony] What are they?

- [Man] Some sort
of bizarre mutation.

- Extraordinary claims
need extraordinary proof.

- I'm Tony Harris.

And as a journalist
for more than 30 years,

I've followed the facts
where they take me.

Now I'm bringing that
spirit of investigation

to the world's strangest
sounds and images.

(Creature shrieking)

We'll analyze each
one with top experts-

- it's a credible case;
It's a credible video.

- [Tony] And pass a
verdict on what it is.

- This video was clearly faked.

- "The proof" starts now.

We begin with a
bigfoot with bad Bo.

That's how the
legendary Florida creature

known as the skunk
ape has been described.

People say it lurks
in the sunshine state,

even leaving prints.

Does it add up to proof
or is it a bit too perfect?

Panama City beach
in Florida's panhandle

is a popular vacation
spot with a lively nightlife.

But in July 2020, Chloe
Brennan and her boyfriend

found something
that might make them

never leave the house again.

- [Tony] Let's push in on that.

It's a claw or paw print

left on the rear
windshield of Chloe's car.

You can see the markings
of those long claws

and detailed
creases in the skin.

Weirder still, Chloe
says it smelled.

- It was just like
stinky, greasy,

and it looked like
a monkey hand.

- [Tony] On social media,

friends wonder whether
it could be evidence

of a legendary creature
called the skunk ape.

Field researcher Ken gerhard

has investigated
dozens of sightings.

- There seem to be more accounts

of it chasing people,
terrorizing people.

People describe
the face as being

somewhere between
a human and an ape.

Very broad shoulders,
no neck, very long arms.

- And it might be
more than a legend.

The skunk ape has allegedly
been captured on video.

Almost 600 miles south
in the Florida everglades,

this famous footage
emerged in 2000.

It appears to show
the southern bigfoot

ambling through a swamp.

Watch as it suddenly
breaks into a long-limbed run,

almost aware that
it's being watched,

finally escaping into
a grove of palm trees.

One big difference between
the skunk ape and bigfoot:

The skunk ape is said to stink

of rotten eggs and moldy socks.

But we wanna know, do these
videos pass the smell test?

For answers, we turn to
wildlife biologist Lucy eckersley.

- When I first saw this,

I have to say I wasn't
sure what it was.

- [Tony] Could it be a
neighborhood dog or cat?

- This is a pretty large print
from a pretty large animal

and it's going up a windshield.

That's pretty unusual behavior.

From what I can see
here, this is an animal

that has both digits
and a flat area of its foot

the same way that we have.

Many animals, like dogs
and cats, are digitigrade,

so that means they're walking

just on the tips
of their digits.

- [Tony] That eliminates
those domestic animals,

since this print has
longer, flatter finger marks.

So, could it be from
a human-like creature

with sharp claws?

- I can see a few clear digits

and then some folds
of skin in the center.

The claws were
actually a big part for me.

When you look at
them, they are printed,

the entire length of the claw,

but claws actually
curve like this.

So, if it was a real animal,

you would expect to
only see the tip of the claw

a little far away from
the end of the digit.

I think that this is
somebody's back of their hand

and then they've drawn on or
included in some way the claws.

- [Tony] Anthropologist
Kathy strain

also examines the print.

- I did not find a single animal

that would match that print.

- We've had a lotta
people come and say

that they think this is a
prank that we have done.

It is not something
that we have done.

- [Tony] As for that
incredible skunk ape video?

- Extraordinary claims
need extraordinary proof.

- [Tony] Strain
does a gait analysis,

comparing how this creature
runs compared to a known ape.

- [Kathy] Up until the time
the animal starts to run,

it was potentially believable.

But once it runs,
it just falls apart.

- [Tony] Note the fluid,
balanced strides of this chimp

compared to the
clumsy, awkward motion

of the alleged skunk ape.

- That's how I run: Really
sloppy, not very good at it.

And I would think an animal

that is natural to
the environment

would be able to run, pshew,
fast and easy and elegant

and just perfect, and that's
not at all what you see here.

(Pensive music)

- So, what's the verdict?

The lack of a separated claw

means the paw print is probably
the back of a human hand.

As far as the video,

the creature's gait
strongly suggests

it's a person in a suit.

We're calling both a hoax.

That doesn't mean
the skunk ape isn't real.

Indigenous tribes have legends

dating back hundreds of years.

Coming up, is there a curse
on the tombs of the pharaohs

and did these
treasure-hunters record it?

(Low whispering)

When "the proof is
out there" continues.

(Suspenseful music)

(Suspenseful music)

- It's been almost 100 years

since king tut's
tomb was discovered.

And ever since, archeologists
and treasure-hunters

have been digging
in the Egyptian desert.

But as you'll see
in this next video,

one group found more than
they were bargaining for.

(Wind whistling)

A group of treasure-hunters

is battling heavy winds
in the Egyptian desert

in search of lost pyramids.

It's may 2013 and
the team is working

with amateur satellite
archeologist Angela micol,

who's directed them
to these coordinates.

- It was a very large
triangular mound.

And I was like, "wait a minute,
this could be undiscovered."

- [Tony] Suddenly,
the wind picks up

and the team is
stopped in its tracks

by the sound of a
whisper in the air.

(Low whispering)

Take another listen.

(Low whispering)

- When I heard that voice,

the hair on the back
of my neck stood up.

I sounded like some
kind of an incantation.

(Low whispering)

- [Tony] Did someone
on Angela's team say it?

- They're like, "oh no, we
didn't put the voice on there.

"We don't know
what it's saying."

They also said they didn't
think that it was arabic.

And I'm like, "what
could it possibly be?

"Could it be maybe an
ancient Egyptian dialect?"

- [Tony] Could the whisper
be an ancient curse?

Journalist mj banias
says that theory

leads back to Howard Carter,

the man who discovered
king tut's tomb in 1922.

- Locals warned Carter
that he probably shouldn't

be messing around the
tomb of a dead pharaoh.

And sure enough, after
Carter made his discovery,

strange things
started to happen.

Members of Carter's team
began to drop like flies.

- The tale goes that six people,

including Carter's secretary
and financial benefactor,

died in the following years
because of the pharaoh's curse.

Is that curse what
Angela's team recorded?

Our analysis starts with
audio expert Ben gottesman.

First question: Is
this really a voice

(low whispering) Or just wind?

- So, here is wind,
right, which you can see

is this extremely intense
low-frequency chunk.

(Wind whistling)

- [Tony] Now,
here's the whisper.

(Low whispering)

Next, gottesman compares
the sound of the whisper

to a human voice.

Here's a human s sound.

(Soft whispering)

Now listen to the whisper.

(Low whispering)

- Just looking at
the spectrogram,

the hissiness of the ss

matched what we humans produce.

- [Tony] Okay, the
whisper sounds human.

But did it happen in
the Egyptian desert

or was it added later?

We turn to forensic
analyst Michael primeau.

- I noted no
instances of fading,

a difference in
background noises,

anything that would be
suspicious of that recording

just kind of pasted
into that section

through the
spectrogram analysis.

So, there is no direct
evidence to support

that this was layered
into the recording

or added after the fact.

- [Tony] So, it
looks like we have

a real voice saying
something, but what?

Next, we send the audio to
our egyptologist, Nick brown.

(Low whispering)

Could we have proof
of an ancient curse?

- So, the tricky thing
with ancient Egyptian

is it's a language
that's died out,

so modern scholars don't
know actually how to speak it.

- [Tony] But according to
brown, based on hieroglyphics,

we do know that sounds
such as jah, sin, and Ka

were part of the language.

(Low whispering)

As he listens, brown
doesn't hear enough

to think this is
ancient Egyptian

or a closely related language.

- I have to say that I can't
explain what the noise is.

- [Tony] Still, he can't
rule out its authenticity.

- I think there is
some possibility

that in the future we
might be able to tell,

as some scholars are trying
to study and crack the code

of ancient Egyptian and the
language and how it was spoken.

- So, we've determined
that this whisper

is definitely some sort
of human-made sound

and it wasn't faked.

But whether or not
it's an ancient curse

is yet to be determined,
so our verdict:

The whisper is an
unexplained phenomenon.

As for the team, they've
continued to search the site

and have found evidence of
limestone and pottery shards.

Could it be pyramids?

We'll let you know
if they find anything.

Coming up, mankind
has been to the moon.

But are these photos proof
that someone else has too?

- [Ken] That is not
a natural structure.

Some intelligent
species created it.

(Suspenseful music)

- NASA recently
announced a major discovery:

They found water on the
sunlit side of the moon.

But some people believe

they made other major
discoveries there decades ago,

discoveries they
chose to keep secret.

Take a look.

From 1969 to 1972, NASA's
six Apollo moon landings

defined a golden age
in space exploration.

The awesome imagery of
those missions made history.

But some people
believe that this image

reveals a secret history.

- In my opinion, that is
not a natural structure.

It has got to be

some intelligent
species that created it.

- [Tony] In the 1960s, Ken
johnston was a NASA test pilot.

But later, as
director of the data

and photo control department

at the Johnson
space flight center,

he says on one of
the moon missions

the astronauts came back
with intriguing photographs.

- [Ken] I was in kinda shock.

And some of the craters
would actually show domes

and actual bases.

- [Tony] Bases on the moon?

Ken's talking about these
rounded dome-shaped objects

in the middle of
one of the craters.

But what's even more shocking,

Ken says when he asked
his boss about the photos,

he was told to stop asking.

- And we argued a little bit.

He finally said, "i
don't care what you do,

"just get rid of those
pictures that were taken."

- [Tony] Is it a cover-up?

One thing is certain:
Ken's not the only person

to believe there's been
alien activity on the moon.

Take a look at these photos.

Some believe this
looks like vehicle tracks.

How did these things get there?

Journalist Alexis Brooks says

some believe they
could be the work

of an ancient
interstellar civilization

called the anunnaki.

- Their technology
is said to be integral

in the structures that
we're familiar with today,

like the pyramids.

So, the question becomes,

did this ancient race

lay footing, if you
will, on the moon?

- The anunnaki first appeared
in the ancient traditions

of the sumerians
and the babylonians

over 3,000 years ago.

Do these images suggest they

or another civilization
landed on the moon?

We asked astrophotographer
Andrew McCarthy to check it out.

(Pensive music)

McCarthy starts by examining
the photo of the alleged bases.

- Really does look
like something artificial

at first glance.

- [Tony] McCarthy focuses
not only on the structure,

but on the crater around it.

- When an impact happens,
ejecta's flung everywhere.

Some of it is flung straight up
and comes straight back down

and it creates
these irregular piles

in the middle of the
crater that you see here.

Frankly, if it wasn't
there, that would be weird.

- [Tony] Next, Mars
mission planner Jonathan hill

takes a look at
those strange tracks.

Hill points out that boulders
often leave similar tracks

when they roll
across the surface,

but these tracks
are perfectly parallel.

- [Jonathan] My first
thought was the lunar rovers

driven by the Apollo astronauts.

- [Tony] Hill checks images
from Apollo landing sites

and comes up empty.

- However, the United
States was not the only country

that sent wheeled
vehicles to the moon.

- [Tony] In fact, in 1970,
the Soviet lunokhod 1

was the first
remote-controlled rover

to land on an
extraterrestrial body,

and the width of
its known tracks

seem to match the mystery photo.

- They look very, very similar

to those two parallel
line tracks we saw before,

but we still can't
quite prove definitively

that that's what caused

these particular
set of double tracks.

- Well, we don't have
proof that the anunnaki

ever made it to the moon.

But we do know those
moon bases aren't alien-made,

while the mysterious tracks
look like human handiwork.

So, our verdict: The
bases are natural formations

and the tracks likely
from a lunar rover.

And here's hoping we
get back to the moon soon

to make some more.

Coming up, a suburban
housewife is startled

by an unexplained blue flash.

- [Woman] Oh!

What was that?

- What caused it and
what did it do to her?

When "the proof is
out there" continues.

(Dramatic music)

(Suspenseful music)

- We now head to the
great state of Texas

for the story of an
unexplained phenomenon

which occurred in, of all
places, a suburban kitchen.

March 2017.

Erica garner is home
alone in her house

just outside Houston.

Her husband has
left for a business trip.

- I was outside, I was
playing with my two dogs,

and I noticed something
very strange on my rooftop.

There was black
birds going in a circle.

I had never seen that before.

- [Tony] This feels
like some sort of omen

as Erica goes back inside.

She's giving water to
her dogs, when suddenly-

- [Erica] Oh!

- [Tony] Let's freeze on that

'cause if you
blink, you'll miss it:

A strange blue light
streaking through the room,

leaving Erica stunned and
momentarily at a loss for words.

- It was almost like plasma.

Everything in the room
turned completely white,

almost like an explosion,
and my eyes started burning.

- [Tony] Even stranger,
the flash only lasts a second,

though Erica says
it felt much longer.

- [Erica] What was tht?

- It almost traveled
like it was a train

coming across the room,
slowly coming in for a stop,

and this happened for all
of about seven seconds.

- [Tony] And that night,
things get downright funky.

- I had trouble sleeping.

I was having some
strange dreams,

and it definitely impacted me.

- [Tony] Erica's dreams
of pink and purple galaxies

make her feel like she's
been transported through time.

And she wonders
if the blue flash

coulda been an
extraterrestrial force.

- Into my research
trying to figure out

what possibly a blue beam
of light could come from,

people have said they've
experienced alien abductions

and they might see
a blue beam of light.

- [Tony] One similar
case happened in 1975.

An Arizona logger named
Travis walton disappeared

after walking toward an
unidentified beam of light

in the forest.

He recalled being
transported to a strange place

surrounded by alien beings.

And when he made it home,

he was shocked to learn
he'd been gone for five days.

- There are definitely
things in this world

that we do not understand.

- So, what is
Erica's blue flash?

Well, we know it's not her
security camera malfunctioning

because we can hear her reacting

in real time.

- [Erica] Oh!

- So, the first thing we did

was a proper
analysis of the footage.

(Pensive music)

Photography expert
Andrew McCarthy

starts by examining the
footage frame by frame.

- So, right after this, the
camera lost several frames.

You see a distinct jump.

Her hair moves, the dogs
move; It's just a significant jump.

She said it was seven seconds.

I'm not sure if it
was seven seconds,

but it was a long time,

long enough that they
significantly shifted positions.

- [Tony] But McCarthy
says there's something else

that's even stranger.

- What didn't make sense to me

is nothing here is
casting a shadow.

It seems like the
lights would be coming

behind the camera to cause this,

but you would see
some kinda shadow cast

on the legs of these
chairs, on the dogs.

You don't see any of that.

It's just bright, and
it's uniformly bright.

- [Tony] Forensic
investigator chase kloetzke

is curious if the flash could
be something as simple

as a burnt-out light bulb,

so she asks the
garners to run a test.

- Erica and her husband
put this light bulb in

and they tapped it.

And if you tap it long
enough, it burned out.

Once you compare when
the light bulb blows out

and that reaction and you
put it next to the blue flash,

they're not even close.

- [Tony] Okay, so if it
wasn't a blown bulb,

was it possibly a strike
of lightning from outside?

(Thunder rumbling)

Atmospheric scientist
Deanna hence

reviews the local weather
radar from that day.

- What you're
seeing is that a round

of fairly intense thunderstorms

went through the Houston area,

but it was about one
o'clock in the morning,

whereas this video was
taken at 11:30 in the morning.

That really leaves me to think

that lightning is not
responsible for that flash.

- [Tony] Some experts believe
wormholes in the universe

create paths to move
backwards in time

and through parallel universes.

Perhaps the blue flash
was one such path.

- I stand more on the side
of this being a time glitch.

It's an error in our
time-space fabric.

- So, what is it?

The strange jump in the footage

does point to some
kind of time glitch.

But whether it's
caused by an alien force,

some wormhole, or
something else is unclear.

So, for now, i'm
prepared to call this

a genuine unexplained
phenomenon.

And that's our show for tonight.

And we wanna know your
thoughts and your suggestions

for what we should
investigate next,

so drop us a line
and let us know.

Thanks for watching, everyone.

I'm Tony Harris,

reminding you to keep
those cameras rolling.

(Suspenseful music)
