All language subtitles for Beyond Skinwalker Ranch - 3x03

Tonight on
Beyond Skinwalker Ranch.

I think this is our ride.

Beyond
Skinwalker goes Mad Max.

Hey, Chris.

It's been a long time.

Welcome to the
Everglades, man.

Let's go swamping.

There it is again.

You see it?

the dancing lights
and the trees right there.

There's three, four--

oh, wow, they're everywhere.

We've got Chris
in this entirely

shielded copper room, completely
isolated from the outside.

And he's gesturing.

Copy that.

This is amazing.

It's next level.

Son of a [bleep].

For years,
scientists have

been working to reveal the
secrets of Skinwalker Ranch.

But is it possible
that the clues

to unlock the
mystery are located

beyond the borders of this
hub of high strangeness?

Wow.

Now, an ex-CIA
agent and a veteran journalist

have been recruited
by the Skinwalker team

to go on a high stakes
mission across America.

Look at all this
activity that's happening.

That's unbelievable.

That is
right over our head.

That's it.
That's it right there.

The goal,
uncover evidence that

may finally expose the truth.

How
is this happening?

Now it's
going to get interesting.

Look, it's moving!

Look at that.
Look at that!

This is
just the beginning.

It's good to
see you guys back.

What do you guys want
to do for us next?

If you recall, one
of our special projects

from our first
years investigation

was a gentleman
named Chris Bledsoe.

Last year, Andy and
Paul traveled to North Carolina

to meet with Chris
Bledsoe who says

he had an extraterrestrial
encounter in 2007.

This fire was swirling,
and these little flames

were shooting off of it.

I never thought about
UFOs, but I knew

it wasn't anything that we had.

Chris claims
that afterward, he

formed a connection
with the phenomenon.

It came out of the sky.

And when I came home, the
phenomena came to the house.

This
experience gave Chris

the ability to seemingly
communicate and directly

interact with orbs.

I'm broadcasting my
intentions in every direction,

and I'm asking them to come
and share their experience

tonight with us.

This is time right now.

Here it comes.

You see it coming?

Oh, wow.

Yeah.

What the hell.

I don't know what this is.

Andy and Paul called
in neuroscientist Dr. James

Thompson to take
an EEG of his brain

when interacting with the orbs
and recorded stunning results.

The state change that occurs
in the presence of the orb,

which is instantaneous, it's
really only held by the highest

level meditators.

You look at a Buddhist monk,
they can move into this state.

Oh, yeah.

This was a very interesting
experiment that these guys did.

I think what we
found coming out

of our first round of
investigations with him

and the EEG was that
there is some kind

of effect on his brain.

There is something
different biologically

that happens when
he believes he's

in contact with the phenomenon.

The question is, is
it a physical stimulus

or is it a
psychological stimulus?

So first of all, we're
going to get him down

to the Everglades,
down to Florida,

down to a truly dark sky,
out of his comfort zone,

a whole new set of
environmental circumstances

and see how he responds.

Is his ability or whatever
is going on in his brain,

is it connected to that place
on the Cape Fear River or is

it replicable elsewhere?

I mean, this-- this
could open up a whole other

discussion with Chris Bledsoe.

Right.

And then our
second objective is

to find a way by engaging
with Dr. James Thompson,

our neuroscientist who helped us
with Chris the first time, find

a way, if we can add
a more clinical way

of studying Chris's brain.

Because if you recall,
our first experiment

happened in the field.

We would like to find a way to
put more controlled elements

around that experiment
to see if we can

recreate or even advance
some of what we've

learned about Chris brain.

I mean, one possibility we
think, and I think this would be

interesting to you guys as well,
is taking him to the Monroe

Institute, you know, studies
of deep consciousness

where a lot of this research
has been going on for decades.

They have some facilities
there that are pretty unique.

We think, you know, that's
something that that'll

intrigue Dr. Thompson as well.

So it sounds like we're
planning on an EEG exercise,

electroencephalogram study of
what's going on in real time,

perhaps as he engages, which
is a very interesting avenue

to go down because there's
talk about the effect of orbs

on human neurophysiology.

Well, this will be an
interesting exercise.

I'm looking forward to
the results from that.

- Me, too.
- All right.

- Good luck.
- Cool.

Thank you.

All right, guys.
We're off.

Let us
know what happens.

Andy and Paul are
in the Florida Everglades

to work with Chris
Bledsoe, far away

from his North Carolina home.

This is about as far
as the road takes us.

You can't get much deeper
into the Everglades than this.

I think this is our ride.

This is not what
I was expecting.

Look at that.

Property owner said
he was going to leave

us a way of getting in.

Beyond Skinwalker
goes Mad Max.

You think you can
drive this thing?

I think if it's got an
engine, we can figure it out.

Yeah.

Hey, Chris.

Andy, Paul.

It's been a long time.

Welcome to the
Everglades, man.

Wow.

Glad you found us out here.

They're here
to test whether Chris's

purported ability to
sense the phenomenon

will follow him to
a remote location.

The thing is,
what we've got here,

Chris, is we've got a
piece of private property

where we can run all of our
experiments, where we've got,

we think, maybe the darkest
skies that we've ever been in

and hopefully you've ever been
in, darkest spot in the Eastern

continental United States, and
we've got this to get us there.

Ready for an adventure?

I'm ready.

All
right, let's do it.

For 17 years, I've been
studying this phenomenon,

I mean, nearly every week.

This solid object, I just walked
out and asked for it to appear,

and there it is.

I'm outside and
I'm recording it.

I'm studying it.

And everywhere I go,
it seems to appear.

PAUL BEBAN (ON
RADIO): How close?

It
appeared over the pond,

and it's going East now.

Now two.

Wow, two.

Another one just come
up beside it and lit up.

It just comes to greet
me wherever I go.

It's like, hello, you know?

And so what does that mean?

Is it attached to the land
everywhere or to an individual.

I think that going to
different locations

hundreds of miles
from where I live

is a big deal to help
prove that it's not

necessarily attached
to the land,

but it can be
attached to somebody.

I really don't know if
we'll ever figure it out,

but we'll get closer, I think.

It's a good sign.

All right, captain,
let's go swamping.

And we are off to get a swamp.

Since I've seen you
guys last, the phenomenon

has picked it up a notch.

I'm beginning to see
a whole lot more.

You're seeing more at home?

Yes, sir.

And especially in
the woods around us.

You know, there's
always the orbs up high,

but it's very rare to see them
up close and in the forest.

It has grown exponentially.

Sometimes when I walk
out the door at my home,

the sky comes alive, and
there's lights start flashing,

and it'll come to the ground.

It'll come to the
forest around me.

And it gives me a
great feeling of--

it's almost like a
friend, honestly.

It happens every
night, just about,

and it's become a
relationship, I would say.

It's almost like it
wants to communicate.

It's trying, I think.

Hopefully with
our investigation,

we can get a little bit
closer to what it all means.

So hopefully, tonight we get
that chance to see it up close.

All right.

Well, let's check
out where we are.

The team is now in
the dark reaches of the swamp,

far away from any cities, roads,
houses, or any other sources

of light that could interfere
with any potential orb

sightings.

Tell you what, is about as
remote as you can get out here,

it feels like.

This is the Everglades.

It's quiet.

It's hauntingly quiet.

In order to
record and evaluate

orbs in this dark environment,
Andy, Paul, and Chris

will use night vision
technology, including

a FLIR thermal camera, an
instrument that monitors

changes in temperature.

They'll also be using
a SiOnyx camera.

The SiOnyx is an infrared
night vision camera

that enhances light in near
complete darkness, allowing

the team to see things not
visible to the naked eye,

including seeing into
the infrared spectrum,

which is beyond
human visual range.

I hope we can get the
phenomenon to cooperate with us.

Are you getting any sense
yet, Chris, direction or--

I keep facing this
area right in here.

This is drawing me to it.

So this would be North here,
and this would be East.

Northeast.
Right.

So that's where you're--
that's where you're feeling it,

Northeast?
- Yeah.

Paul I see an orb
right here, straight

above this tree in front of us.

Yep.

- You got it?
- Very low.

Yep.
- Yeah.

Whatever that light is
coming through the tree line,

it doesn't seem to be blinking.

No.

There's no satellites.

Yeah,
I was going to say.

I mean, that's
not what a plane looks like.

No.

That's right in
the tree line, too.

Yeah.

Look at that,
Chris, going into the Northeast,

just like you felt.

Yep.

Yeah.

Amazing.

And it just vanished, I think.

It just disappeared.

It just disappeared.

Unbelievable.

We're nowhere near your home.

Right.

Somehow still, you can see
the phenomenon overhead here.

Yeah.

That's quite
astounding, Chris.

There isn't a house.

There isn't a road.

Yap.

There isn't a
light that's made

for miles in all directions.

There's not even
a radio tower.

I mean, there's nothing.

It is-- it is pitch
black in every direction.

And I think
there's more to come.

Are you getting any sense
yet, Chris, direction or?

I keep facing this
area right in here.

This is drawing me to it.

Look at that,
Chris, going into the Northeast,

just like you felt.

Yep.

Andy and Paul
are with Chris Bledsoe

in the remote
Florida Everglades,

far from civilization,
investigating

his seeming ability to
attract orbs in a location

he's never visited.

Unbelievable.

We're nowhere near your home.

Right.

Somehow still, you can see
the phenomenon overhead here.

Yeah.

That's quite
astounding, Chris.

I'm actually putting out
a request for a bigger show.

Multiple.

Ooh, there's one 10 feet off
the ground, maybe 15 feet,

deep in the woods,
right straight here.

Right
on top of the trees,

tree level flowing through
the trees right now.

I have it on SiOnyx.

It's coming between those
two large pines right now.

What is that?

Now-- now
there for one second.

Solid light going in
between tree branches.

Whoa.

That
is inside the trees.

That is weaving in
and out of trees.

That's
really amazing.

Just keep watching.

I got one traveling through
the woods right here.

You're seeing
that on the SiOnyx, Chris?

Yeah,
I see it real good.

It's turning colors
inside the trees.

Just watch.

Watch the origin of trees.

I see it.
I see it.

I see it flying
through here, too.

Yep, there it is.

Right through the
middle of the forest.

It's coming
right on up through right here.

These
trees right in front of us?

Yeah.

I'm
capturing it on recording.

I just can't see it
with my naked eye.

There's nothing on the FLIR.

There's two.

There are two or three, four.

One of them's lit,
full time, right here.

There's three, four orbs right
here flashing in the trees.

-at least--

at least three distinct
sources of light.

There's another one.

There's-- there's one.

Oh, wow, they're everywhere.

There's at least six or eight
orbs in the woods right there

flashing us at one time.

OK, I see that now.

It's just a
dance of lights and the trees

right there.

It is a light
show going on right now.

I mean, red and white
and bluish colored orbs.

Stationary.

I feel like
they're watching us just

as much as we're watching them.

Exactly.

Chris,
I feel like you

asked for just an amazing
show in the tree line.

And
I feel like that's

what we're watching right now.

Man, we are
in the middle of nowhere

in the middle of the Everglades.

Unbelievable.

Look at that.

This is absolutely incredible.

It's like an orb
parade out there.

This isn't like
anything they've

ever had on Skinwalker Ranch.

Amazing.

And now they're gone.

That got my blood pumping.

You ever seen
anything like that?

No, I've never seen
anything like that.

What a show.

What are you feeling
right now, Chris?

Do you feel some
sort of connection?

Yes, I absolutely do.

How would you describe that?

Is it a-- is it a
mental connection?

Is it an emotional connection?

Does it feel like a
physical connection?

Well, I spent two weeks
before coming here just

talking to the sky,
the phenomenon,

and ask it if it would tonight
appear in the woods next to us.

And we've seen that.

I mean, I think what
we're still trying to get

to the bottom of,
is it-- are you

able to sense them in advance
or are you summoning them?

Yes.

I've experienced this so
much for the last 17 years,

nearly every day of my life.

They're like children.

They act like children.

They get playful, and I
think it's time the world

knows we're not alone.

What is it?

I don't know.

But it don't seem negative
to me, and it's always--

it's always been
exciting and positive.

That was probably the biggest
show I'd seen in 17 years.

I'm so glad we recorded it.

Yeah.

For the next part of
their experiment with Chris,

the team heads about 15 miles
Southwest to the 10,000 islands,

an Everglades waterway
dotted with remote,

uninhabited mangrove forests.

They want to put
Chris on the water,

reminiscent of his
original encounter

at the Cape Fear River,
to see what phenomena

might follow him here.

So I'm curious
what's going to happen,

if there'll be any
difference when

we surround ourselves
with deep water instead

of shallow, swamp water.

This is an area where the
water is obviously much

deeper, about 10 feet deep.

But the volume of water
is significantly greater--

Yeah.

than what we
had in the swamp.

I mean, there's going
to be no light pollution.

We're going to have probably
no other boats around.

I mean, it's just going
to be quiet, dark, really

ideal conditions, hopefully,
for some sightings.

I mean, we are in a
truly timeless place.

Yeah.

This has been like this
for thousands of years.

I mean, it feels like
primordial landscape.

How are you feeling now?

I mean, here we are in a
totally new environment for you.

Are you getting
a different vibe?

Not yet, because
I haven't really

put my thoughts into that.

Sunset's, I'll face
every direction.

And what I'm doing is putting
out a thought into space,

and I'm requesting
their presence.

This is exciting to me.

This is like a dream come true.

Well, we're just
getting started.

Pretty much just
waiting for sunset now.

It's absolutely beautiful.

I'm feeling the trees.

Let's see if we can have
something up here maybe.

Andy and Paul are
with Chris Bledsoe in the 10,000

islands of the remote
Florida Everglades,

far from human activity
or light pollution,

testing whether Chris's
connection to orb phenomena

will repeat itself
in a second location

700 miles from his home.

Got something.

You see something, Chris?

Yeah, a white light.

I don't know if
it's-- what it is yet,

but it's below the trees.

Yeah, right under the tree
line right straight over here.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

All right.

In the tree line?

Down in the trees.

I
can't see anything.

Yeah, I see it.

Actually
dropped down a bit.

It was bright white, what I saw.

Still in that tree.

Yep, I see it.

One tree.

I don't
know what that is, Chris.

I don't
either, but I'm seeing it.

Can you
put a FLIR on this area

that we keep seeing.

That's exactly
what I'm going to do.

Because whatever you
guys have been seeing,

I have not been able to
see with the naked eye.

Yeah.

And I'm curious if
it's light energy

or if it's also
potentially thermal energy.

All
right, Andy, that's

that clump where you and Chris
were seeing that light, correct?

Yeah.

There's
nothing on the FLIR.

So I don't know--

I don't know what we're
dealing with here.

Are you still seeing it?

It's-- yeah, it's--

it's weaving in and
out of the trees.

Is it
moving back and forth?

lit up above it.

Look, there it is too.

You see the bright one?

Yep.

Unbelievable.

Nothing on the FLIR.

I'm trying to look in the
same direction as you guys.

So underneath that bright
light, someone's about to pull

out of the trees right there.

Are they-- do they
have heat signatures.

Not that I can see.

Neither of them?

No.

The bottom one
came from down low and came up.

So, Chris,
take a look how the top one

has a reflection in the water.

Right.

But
the bottom one does not.

That's strange, huh?

Well, I mean, there's
a number of things that

were very strange about that.
We had--

Absolutely.

two different lights

and two different directions,
one casting a reflection

in the water, one that did not.

How
is that possible?

How is a light
source not reflected?

I don't know.

I'm pretty sure I've
got the right area and frame,

and I'm not getting
any kind of heat

signature, which should if
it's a plane or a helicopter.

There's nothing there.

There's nothing there.

Moving slow.

Still there and very faint.

Just disappeared, the one here.

That was pretty crazy.

I feel pretty certain
that it was an orb.

Well, we know
it wasn't a plane.

We know it wasn't
a satellite, right?

Right.

And if it's not those two
things, it's something else.

It just turned off, vanished,
phased out, whatever.

It's, you know, UAP, UFO, orb,
whatever you want to call it.

It's, you know, something
that we're chasing.

Yeah.

And it feels like it-- you
know, we're-- we're always

just right behind it.

Exactly.

Andy and I are always
chasing data points.

We're chasing phenomenon.

We're chasing things we
can observe and record.

One of the things that's so
interesting about working

with Chris is that
we don't bring

along all these other
pieces of technology

to trigger phenomenon.

Chris is the instrument.

Chris is the trigger.

And so to see all
this activity, it's

a paradigm shift for the kind
of questions we're asking

and how we think about
this entire field of study.

We've taken you now from
North Carolina to Florida

to multiple parts
across Florida,

and the performance is extremely
consistent when you are present.

It seems to be
independent of location,

and it's also something
that we can't replicate

when you're not there.

When we are with
Chris Bledsoe, there's

this level of consistency with
the phenomenon being present.

But we're also seeing
more variation, I think,

than we've seen in the past.

An excellent observation.

It's changing.

Remember I told
you, it changed.

If there have been changes,
that's something we can measure.

Yeah.

That's something we
can bring in Dr. Thompson

again and record some data
to get some, hard data,

on whether the wiring in
Chris's brain has changed.

I mean, there are so
many questions here,

I don't know where to begin.

But we just need to
start getting some data.

We're just getting started.

Yeah.

This is
a beautiful place.

Look at this.

For the next part of
their investigation with Chris,

Andy and Paul are
headed to the Monroe

Institute in Faber, Virginia.

The Monroe Institute is
a world renowned research

and educational center
focused on the study

of human consciousness and
the power of the awakened mind

using state of the art
brainwave pattern technology.

The team will meet with
neuroscientist Dr. James

Thompson at the Institute to do
a more controlled set of tests

with Chris.

I am super excited
about this experiment.

Dr. James Thompson, thank
you so much for coming back.

Pleasure.

In last year's
investigation near Chris's home

in North Carolina, Dr. Thompson
ran brainwave tests on Chris

to see what happened
to him when he

saw orbs using an
electroencephalogram, or EEG.

An EEG uses electrodes on the
scalp to detect and record

the location, frequency, and
strength of electrical signals

sent to different
areas of the brain

and can give an analysis
of a person's brainwaves

when they are experiencing
different events.

In 2023, using EEG
technology, the team

was able to capture data of
Chris's brain when orbs appear.

Just had a sighting.

We just had a sighting.

He's pointing.

Wow.

Post-analysis shared
with the Skinwalker team

showed that the orb seemed to
trigger an incredibly unique

response in Chris's brain.

The state change that occurs
in the presence of the orb,

which is instantaneous, it's
really only held by the highest

level meditators.

You look at a Buddhist monk,
they can move into this state.

They focus, they
relaxed, and they

shut out the external world.

For Chris, this happens
instantaneously.

This is great
data to something

much more complex
of an experiment

that we need to think of.

The team will now
do a more advanced experiment

using the clinical environment
of the Monroe institute,

employing a more refined
EEG headset and a new set

of control factors.

Melody Thank you for
joining us as our technician.

Dr. Thompson, can you tell
us what we're setting up here

and how it's going to work.
- Yeah.

So what we're doing
this time is we're

going to get a baseline of Chris
in a controlled environment,

so we're not outdoors
like we were last time.

That allows us to
do the processing

and understand what the
brain is doing at rest,

and essentially determine that
there's no abnormal differential

activity at baseline.

They'll also
be adding a new lab rat

to help with this experiment.

We've got Paul coming
in as a control subject.

So now we're also going to
be able to look at Chris

versus a normal control,
and we'll be able

to look at comparisons
in the data analysis

and while we're doing
this live as well.

Awesome.
- Yeah.

I started my neurological
endeavors actually

in sports and sports science.

And we were studying
the brains of athletes

as they went into a flow state.

Top athletes no longer
process external information

when they're performing
at their peak.

This flow state, they talk
about everything slowing down.

And Chris is unique, because
when we look at Chris's brain

during the occurrence of orbs
and the presence of those,

we see that Chris
shifts into these flow

states of these peak
performers and meditators,

people who go into internal
states of consciousness

and reflection.

We only studied
Chris the first time,

so we did not have a
control comparison.

And in scientific
research, we always

want to have a control group.

So we've taken the opportunity
now to record Chris and record

a control subject, Paul.

We have a control baseline.

We have Chris's baseline.

We can understand what
they look like at rest.

And then as we record at night
and we experience the orbs,

we can see if there
is a difference

between how Chris reacts in the
presence of orbs versus Paul.

We actually only need about
two minutes of clean data--

Wow

to get a representation
of the neurological--

- A baseline
- function.

A baseline.
- Wow.

And we'll have a 99% accuracy,
the representation of both Chris

and Paul's brains.

Wow.

These are good.

This is perfect.

With the
baselines established,

the team heads outside to
conduct dual EEG tests on Chris

and Paul in hopes of capturing
the brainwave response of each

during the appearance
of an orb in the sky.

We're just going to make
sure each electrode is

right on the scalp.

Here, what we're
going to do is

be able to record
during the phenomena,

and then we'll do a
comparison between baselines

and the phenomena, and we'll
see what the differences are.

We know that there's all
kinds of crazy data, who knows.

But I tend to be
the most skeptical

of these orb phenomena.

But, you know, this is going to
be so interesting, to just see

the difference
between my response

and Chris's response when we're
looking at the same night sky

and experiencing the same thing.

I'm really hopeful
that this helps

clarify what Chris is doing.

What is his process?

Because it's going to be
very different from my own.

You look like you're getting
ready to compete in Tron.

Yeah, I was going to say
that, the Tour de France.

The Tour de orb.

That's right.

Yeah.

Andy has
also set up the team's

thermal cameras in order
to monitor the skies

for orb or UAP activity.

They're set up at a
safe enough distance,

so they can't be heard
by Chris or Paul.

All
right, here we go.

All right.
So we're recording on both.

Right.

They'll settle in, and we'll
start to look for reactions

in their neurological profiles.

And
you can still see how

different the two brains are.

That's right.

My hypothesis is
that we'll see more

complexity in Paul's because
he's processing all the time.

He's potentially skeptic.

He's a thinker, and
he's a journalist.

Chris is much more relaxed
in this environment, waiting

for, you know, the experiences
that he has all the time

and is familiar with.

Right.

Paul's a little
more cognitive.

Right now, he's
thinking about things--

whereas Chris, Chris's
brainwaves are larger,

and he's relaxing
his mind and going

into more of an idling state.

So if we could
have an interaction

during this recording
period would be

fantastic shape for our study.

You're a very good signal.

Now we just need the experience.

We just need a phenomena here

Chris just went off there.

Arms up.

There we go.

The team is at the
Monroe Institute in Virginia,

conducting an EEG experiment on
both experiencer Chris Bledsoe.

Arms up.

There we go.

Oh, it's right here.

And also Paul from
the Beyond Skinwalker team

to see the differences in
their brainwave patterns

if an orb appears.

And moments ago, Chris
sensed an orb above them.

Did y'all see that?

Did you all see that fly over?

Just huge one.

It was huge and bright,
went right over.

You saw it, didn't you, Paul?

Mm-hmm.

And it was pretty low.

Prior to
spotting the orb,

Chris' brainwaves on
the EEG showed that he

was in a more relaxed state.

But the moment the orb appeared,
he had a sudden increase

of alpha brainwaves that put
him into a monk-like meditative

state.

Yeah, he gets those global
bursts of alpha that we

don't see as much of in Paul.

That global alpha is when
the entire brain can shift

into this relaxed
state, and that

can be trained in some people.

Chris hasn't trained in
meditation or anything,

so this is something that
he's naturally able to shift

in and out of, which is unique.

At the same
time, Paul's brainwaves

seem to show a more active and
cognitive state consistently

throughout the orb sighting.

What we're seeing
with Paul, he's

thinking he's
processing information,

but he's not as actively
scanning the sky.

And now, he's opened his eyes.

He's scanning the
sky as something's

changed in Chris' physical
and mental state there.

And now, he's back into
this more relaxed state.

Arms up.

There we go.

That
one, right here.

That's interesting.

So we are seeing consistency
between the sightings

in the sky, but you're
seeing the same kind

of initial results.

Yeah, and that's
one of the things

that we are seeing
that's consistent,

is that we see
these global states

of relaxation in Chris' brain.

The subtleties that we can pick
up in the analysis give us a lot

more information, right?

Yeah.

Once you get all the
data, we aggregate it,

we bring it together
and say, OK, this

was happening in the brain while
this was happening in the skies.

Yeah.

Sometimes you have to pull
the evidence out, look at it

in the lab, and then
you're going to find

what you're looking for.

Oh.

With preliminary
EEG data accumulated on Chris

and Paul that still needs to
be analyzed in more detail,

they'll now move on to
phase 2 of the experiment

and relocate to a completely
sealed room inside the facility

called the copper room.

The copper room is a modified
Faraday cage, an enclosed room

lined with copper, designed
to prohibit any kind of energy

within or outside the
room from penetrating

the walls in either direction.

Now, we're taking
it from outside,

where you can scan the skies
and have visual inputs.

Putting him in this copper
room will keep the EEG rolling,

and we'll measure the
neurological states

as he potentially interacts with
the orbs when they're present.

But he no longer has
the visual inputs.

We're going to have you in
this copper-enclosed room.

Right.

You're going to
be lying in the bed.

We've got people outside,
and we've got the cameras

outside monitoring the sky.

And when you sense
a phenomena, react

to it as you naturally would.

And we'll be capturing
the data outside,

and we'll be capturing the
data inside in your brain,

inside this copper room.

Wonderful.

The question
is, will Chris

be able to sense the orbs
without being able to see them

while also being completely
shielded from any known

measurable energy
that the phenomenon

might communicate to him?

And how will his brain react?

Here we go.

We've got the screens rolling.

All right, man.
I'm going to head out.

OK.
- I'll be on standby.

You got me via walkie.

Yep.

Away we go.

See you, gents.

OK.

This is such an
interesting experiment, right?

Because the copper room,
really what it does

is seal Chris off
electromagnetically

from the outside world.

There's no way,
as far as we know,

that he can still connect
with the phenomenon.

Hey, Paul, this is Andy.

Copy you, Andy.

I'm in location.

All cameras are running.

We're ready to rock and roll.

Very good.

Chris is in position.

There's also the question of
whether the copper shielding

actually shields
him from whatever it

is, whatever his connection is.

Yeah.

Andy,
he's gesturing.

OK.

Copy that, sir.

We've got eyes on the sky.

Paul, I see an orb right
here, flying overhead.

It's amazing.

It's next level.

Fantastic.

Son of a [bleep].

That's unbelievable.

Andy,
he's gesturing.

OK.

Copy that, sir.

We've got eyes on the sky.

The team is at the
Monroe Institute performing

controlled EEG tests
with Chris Bledsoe

to monitor his
brainwaves while he

sees or senses orbs in the sky.

But they've secluded Chris in
an enclosed copper-lined room

to prevent him from
having any sensory contact

with the outside world.

Son of a [bleep].

That's unbelievable.

Despite being
completely isolated,

he just seemed to identify
an orb in the sky.

Andy, he's pointing to this--
he's pointing to the sky.

Copy that.

We're eyes on, trying
to find something now.

Still pointing.

Now, he just dropped his arm.

Good, copy.

We're still scanning.

Nothing so far.

Copy you.

Andy, he's signaling.

Copy that.

We've got eyes on the sky.

The alpha or
flow meditative state

is what Chris' brainwaves
have been recorded

slipping into when he
seems to be detecting

or interacting with orbs.

At this point, Chris seems to
be fairly relaxed, alpha state.

Good.

Copy, sir.

I don't see it yet.

Copy you.

Chris, can you hear us OK?

Yes, sir.

Wonderful.

Yeah, I've had three brief
times that I sensed there.

Hey, Andy, why don't
you come on back in,

and we'll get our
heads together here.

All right, man.

Copy that, coming to you.

Hey, Chris.
We're going to wrap it up.

Do you want to come on out?
- Sure, great.

Although Andy didn't
film corresponding UAP activity

two of the three times
when Chris signaled it,

the production team has
reviewed all the cameras pointed

at the sky during the
experiment and have compiled

some surprising correlations.

There was so much space.

There were so many
dimensions of removal here,

that even here we actually have
footage now that correlates

with Chris' hand raises.

I'm very curious to see
what this looks like.

Right, inside the copper room.

Chris' first signal,
during which Andy captured

an orb on his infrared camera.

Son of a [bleep].

That's unbelievable.

Also featured another
hit on the UFODAP camera

in another part of the sky.

So this is an airplane.
You can see the flashing.

Yeah.
- Whoa.

Whoa.

What was that?

Did you see that?

There's a streaker.

Yep.

Wow.

And to think that
that correlated

with Chris raising his hand
inside the copper room?

That's wild.

That's totally wild.

It's barely perceptible.

Chris was in an
insulated room.

Mm-hmm.

Insulated by,
like, three walls.

Like, the room was
inside of a room

which was inside of a house.

Right.

Not to mention the fact that
it was enclosed in copper.

To even hear that there was any
kind of correlation between when

Chris was raising his hand,
what we were seeing outside,

anything at all, was kind
of shocking in the moment.

Right.

I mean, that
really goes to show

the correlation
between your sense

and what's happening
in the sky above us.

Right there.

So here's another event, Chris,
where you were able to show

a signal with your hand.

Boy, that's a quick one, too.

That
correlates with some kind

of activity in the sky.

Yeah, see it, doing a wag?

Oh, yeah.

See, there's
a curve a little bit.

Yeah, swimming like a fish.

Yeah.

That's what I call a streaker.

They don't go straight.

They all do this number.

Wow.

And here again, Chris is
inside the copper room--

Mm-hmm.

-isolated
from electromagnetic fields.

That's absolutely
flabbergasting, man.

Let's take a look
at the next clip.

The next footage
from the thermal camera

correlates with the third
time that Chris sensed an orb.

Here it
comes, coming up.

Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.

Wow.

How did we miss that?

And the copper room
is there to block

any kind of electromagnetic
signal from getting in or out.

Right.

Right.

So whatever your relationship
is with the phenomenon,

it's not electromagnetic.

It bypasses all that.

Yeah.

I don't know how you sense that.

I don't know how you did that.

I wish
I knew how or what.

I had no idea.

Teach us.

Just, got the same
signals that I get when

I'm out looking at the sky.

Fascinating.

What an interesting start.

That's great.

Whatever you're doing,
just keep doing it.

You feel up for
another round of trying

to explain what's happening?

Well, I hope
this is just the beginning.

I'm excited
to see what we find.

Next time on
"Beyond Skinwalker Ranch."

The power of two,
some of the results

that we got here last time
were just off the charts.

Who knows what's going to happen
now that we've got Emily here?

OK, daddy, here we go.

Directly overhead.

We've got nothing between
here and the Atlantic Ocean.

This guy's right
above us, man.

This is a privileged
frequency zone,

and we are in the middle
of the Florida Everglades.

Right.

Why would that happen?

Whoa.

Whoa.

What was that?
- Exactly.

What was that?

Straight up.

Is it just the
presence of an orb

or is there an
influence of Chris

and a transference of
Chris' experience to someone

who is now sharing
this with Chris?

This gives us a
little bit of insight

about how we see and
perceive reality.

You're not going to believe
what you're about to see.

Whoa.

I think we have a
bona fide unidentified

aerial phenomena event.

What
the hell is that?
