1
00:00:01,543 --> 00:00:03,688
In a remote valley in Utah,
2
00:00:03,712 --> 00:00:08,651
there is a ranch
that some say is evil.
3
00:00:08,675 --> 00:00:10,778
Bad things happen to people
on that property.
4
00:00:10,802 --> 00:00:13,114
There's danger there. It's real.
5
00:00:13,138 --> 00:00:17,160
Terrifying creatures
prowl the land.
6
00:00:17,184 --> 00:00:18,953
There's stories
of cloaked beasts
7
00:00:18,977 --> 00:00:20,854
running out of the woods
and chasing people.
8
00:00:22,105 --> 00:00:24,876
This thing comes right up
to this guy and roars.
9
00:00:24,900 --> 00:00:27,837
Ominous lights
appear in the sky.
10
00:00:27,861 --> 00:00:29,923
I have personally watched as
11
00:00:29,947 --> 00:00:33,468
portions of the mesa
appeared to glow.
12
00:00:33,492 --> 00:00:37,180
Animals are found slaughtered.
13
00:00:37,204 --> 00:00:40,600
They had prized cattle
taken and mutilated.
14
00:00:40,624 --> 00:00:42,477
It's not just UFOs.
15
00:00:42,501 --> 00:00:44,354
It's not just strange creatures.
16
00:00:44,378 --> 00:00:47,941
It's not just animal
mutilations. It's everything.
17
00:00:47,965 --> 00:00:50,735
There are things
that have happened here
18
00:00:50,759 --> 00:00:52,070
that have shaken me to my core.
19
00:00:52,094 --> 00:00:54,239
What is behind
the strange phenomena
20
00:00:54,263 --> 00:00:57,617
that takes place
on Skinwalker Ranch?
21
00:00:57,641 --> 00:00:59,535
And could solving the mystery
22
00:00:59,559 --> 00:01:03,039
change our entire reality?
23
00:01:03,063 --> 00:01:06,918
There is something profound that
is going on at Skinwalker Ranch
24
00:01:06,942 --> 00:01:08,569
and it begs to be studied.
25
00:01:11,446 --> 00:01:13,383
There is a doorway
26
00:01:13,407 --> 00:01:16,219
in the universe.
27
00:01:16,243 --> 00:01:20,390
Beyond it is
the promise of truth.
28
00:01:20,414 --> 00:01:22,642
It demands
we question everything
29
00:01:22,666 --> 00:01:24,978
we have ever been taught.
30
00:01:25,002 --> 00:01:29,190
The evidence is all around us.
31
00:01:29,214 --> 00:01:32,735
The future is
right before our eyes.
32
00:01:32,759 --> 00:01:35,405
We are not alone.
33
00:01:35,429 --> 00:01:38,932
We have never been alone.

Uintah County, Utah.
36
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,717
Nestled in a deep valley,
37
00:01:55,741 --> 00:01:57,885
surrounded by some
of the highest mountain peaks
38
00:01:57,909 --> 00:01:59,178
in North America,
39
00:01:59,202 --> 00:02:03,099
is an infamous
512-acre patch of land
40
00:02:03,123 --> 00:02:05,518
known as Skinwalker Ranch.
41
00:02:05,542 --> 00:02:09,439
The native Utes
warn of a dark presence
42
00:02:09,463 --> 00:02:11,190
that exists in this area,
43
00:02:11,214 --> 00:02:14,527
where strange sightings
in the sky,
44
00:02:14,551 --> 00:02:17,488
encounters with
terrifying creatures,
45
00:02:17,512 --> 00:02:19,616
animal mutilations,
46
00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:22,160
and numerous other
paranormal activities
47
00:02:22,184 --> 00:02:24,412
have been reported
for centuries.
48
00:02:24,436 --> 00:02:29,500
Skinwalker Ranch has become
this nexus of activity
49
00:02:29,524 --> 00:02:31,961
where people are reporting
strange things.
50
00:02:31,985 --> 00:02:37,884
It's in an area in Utah that's
very much like a desert terrain,
51
00:02:37,908 --> 00:02:39,886
and what's there now
52
00:02:39,910 --> 00:02:43,222
is high desert prairie,
kind of, area.
53
00:02:43,246 --> 00:02:45,642
Now what it actually is
54
00:02:45,666 --> 00:02:48,561
and what's going on there
is a whole other question.
55
00:02:48,585 --> 00:02:52,023
It's a very unique
place in the world
56
00:02:52,047 --> 00:02:53,858
where the phenomenon
expresses itself
57
00:02:53,882 --> 00:02:55,610
in dramatic form.
58
00:02:55,634 --> 00:02:58,237
It's also the most
scientifically studied
59
00:02:58,261 --> 00:03:01,640
UFO or paranormal hotspot
in history.
60
00:03:04,101 --> 00:03:06,204
Native American legends say
61
00:03:06,228 --> 00:03:08,414
that there has been
an otherworldly presence
62
00:03:08,438 --> 00:03:10,500
at Skinwalker Ranch for as long
63
00:03:10,524 --> 00:03:12,835
as humans have existed
in the area,
64
00:03:12,859 --> 00:03:15,463
which, according
to archaeological evidence,
65
00:03:15,487 --> 00:03:17,757
is at least 10,000 years.
66
00:03:17,781 --> 00:03:20,760
And the very first
European settlers
67
00:03:20,784 --> 00:03:22,345
to pass through this land
68
00:03:22,369 --> 00:03:26,891
in the late 1700s had their own
bizarre experiences,
69
00:03:26,915 --> 00:03:29,977
which they recorded
in their journals.
70
00:03:30,001 --> 00:03:31,354
The first Europeans
71
00:03:31,378 --> 00:03:34,732
to cross the Uintah Basin,
the, Franciscan monks,
72
00:03:34,756 --> 00:03:37,985
reported seeing things
over their campfires at night,
73
00:03:38,009 --> 00:03:40,238
really weird objects
that we would call UFOs.
74
00:03:40,262 --> 00:03:42,532
The Native Americans,
the indigenous tribes
75
00:03:42,556 --> 00:03:45,410
have been there, have had these
experiences for generations.
76
00:03:45,434 --> 00:03:48,788
It has, for as long as humans
have lived there,
77
00:03:48,812 --> 00:03:51,290
it's been the site
of paranormal activity--
78
00:03:51,314 --> 00:03:54,794
strange things in the sky, UFOs.
79
00:03:54,818 --> 00:03:57,755
There are so many stories
about Skinwalker Ranch
80
00:03:57,779 --> 00:04:01,759
that range from
cattle mutilations going on.
81
00:04:01,783 --> 00:04:04,220
There're stories that if you dig
on the property,
82
00:04:04,244 --> 00:04:05,430
you'll get sick.
83
00:04:05,454 --> 00:04:08,182
Even strange stories
84
00:04:08,206 --> 00:04:12,270
of cloaked beasts
running out of the woods.
85
00:04:12,294 --> 00:04:14,272
You've seen UFOs.
86
00:04:14,296 --> 00:04:16,524
They have seen
different creatures.
87
00:04:16,548 --> 00:04:20,695
They have seen weird things
happening up in the sky.
88
00:04:20,719 --> 00:04:23,239
So you have all these
different phenomena
89
00:04:23,263 --> 00:04:24,824
that happened on that ranch,
90
00:04:24,848 --> 00:04:26,367
so some have referred to it
91
00:04:26,391 --> 00:04:29,495
as a veritable Disneyland
of the paranormal.
92
00:04:29,519 --> 00:04:33,666
The most notorious
of the paranormal phenomena
93
00:04:33,690 --> 00:04:36,043
associated with Skinwalker Ranch
94
00:04:36,067 --> 00:04:38,921
is the creature for which
the property is named.
95
00:04:38,945 --> 00:04:41,549
The association
of the skinwalker
96
00:04:41,573 --> 00:04:43,676
with this mysterious
plot of land
97
00:04:43,700 --> 00:04:46,661
can be traced back
to the mid-19th century.
98
00:04:50,749 --> 00:04:53,519
In January of 1864,
99
00:04:53,543 --> 00:04:56,773
land disputes between
Navajos, Utes,
100
00:04:56,797 --> 00:05:00,485
and the United States military
in Utah and Arizona
101
00:05:00,509 --> 00:05:02,403
reached a fateful tipping point.
102
00:05:02,427 --> 00:05:05,782
After decades of conflict,
103
00:05:05,806 --> 00:05:09,202
the military removed
the Navajo people from the area,
104
00:05:09,226 --> 00:05:11,496
forcing them to make
what became known
105
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,290
as "The Long Walk"
to New Mexico.
106
00:05:14,314 --> 00:05:19,212
The Navajos blamed the Utes
for helping the military,
107
00:05:19,236 --> 00:05:22,507
and so they cursed the land
108
00:05:22,531 --> 00:05:24,801
that the Utes lived on up there.
109
00:05:24,825 --> 00:05:28,054
And it must've been a pretty
strong curse because,
110
00:05:28,078 --> 00:05:30,848
even today, there are
really interesting things
111
00:05:30,872 --> 00:05:32,141
that happen up there.
112
00:05:32,165 --> 00:05:34,811
Cursing the land,
113
00:05:34,835 --> 00:05:37,688
the Navajo witch doctors
attempted to conjure an entity
114
00:05:37,712 --> 00:05:41,609
called a "yee naaldooshii,"
or "skinwalker."
115
00:05:41,633 --> 00:05:45,321
The skinwalkers,
they're sort of typically
116
00:05:45,345 --> 00:05:46,948
six to seven feet tall,
117
00:05:46,972 --> 00:05:50,034
very dangerous.
118
00:05:50,058 --> 00:05:53,287
It's described
as being wolf-like,
119
00:05:53,311 --> 00:05:55,122
but walking on two limbs.
120
00:05:55,146 --> 00:05:59,568
So, inevitably, it sort of
provokes imagery of a werewolf.
121
00:06:01,278 --> 00:06:05,383
The subject of skinwalkers
is as serious as a heart attack.
122
00:06:05,407 --> 00:06:07,802
This is not something
to trifle with.
123
00:06:07,826 --> 00:06:10,847
Even talking about them
puts me in some danger.
124
00:06:10,871 --> 00:06:14,642
The skinwalker
125
00:06:14,666 --> 00:06:16,394
is somebody who is evil.
126
00:06:16,418 --> 00:06:19,897
They want to control people,
127
00:06:19,921 --> 00:06:22,275
communities, regions,
128
00:06:22,299 --> 00:06:25,027
and have that power over people,
129
00:06:25,051 --> 00:06:27,280
and they do this by fear.
130
00:06:27,304 --> 00:06:30,741
The Utes, to this day,
are very respectful.
131
00:06:30,765 --> 00:06:32,952
They're very mindful.
Matter of fact, they stay
132
00:06:32,976 --> 00:06:36,372
at an arm's length, um,
from the Skinwalker Ranch.
133
00:06:36,396 --> 00:06:37,999
They firmly believe
134
00:06:38,023 --> 00:06:41,586
that this ground is cursed and
that, not only the Uintah basin,
135
00:06:41,610 --> 00:06:44,130
but this concentration
of this phenomenon,
136
00:06:44,154 --> 00:06:47,466
this host is on
the Skinwalker Ranch.
137
00:06:47,490 --> 00:06:51,053
Could a monster known
as the skinwalker
138
00:06:51,077 --> 00:06:54,557
really stalk the grounds
of Skinwalker Ranch?
139
00:06:54,581 --> 00:06:59,520
And if so, was it conjured up
by Navajo witch doctors?
140
00:06:59,544 --> 00:07:03,441
Or is it connected
to the paranormal,
141
00:07:03,465 --> 00:07:06,611
and perhaps
otherworldly, activity
142
00:07:06,635 --> 00:07:09,488
that has been reported
on the property for centuries?
143
00:07:09,512 --> 00:07:13,326
Investigative journalist
George Knapp
144
00:07:13,350 --> 00:07:16,829
was one of the first reporters
to expose the strange stories
145
00:07:16,853 --> 00:07:18,372
at Skinwalker Ranch
146
00:07:18,396 --> 00:07:20,333
back in the mid-1990s,
147
00:07:20,357 --> 00:07:23,919
when he conducted extensive
interviews with the Shermans,
148
00:07:23,943 --> 00:07:27,757
the family of ranchers
that owned the property.
149
00:07:27,781 --> 00:07:29,925
This guy shows up one day
150
00:07:29,949 --> 00:07:31,636
while the ranching family
is still there.
151
00:07:31,660 --> 00:07:34,680
He's built like Grizzly Adams,
big burly guy with a beard,
152
00:07:34,704 --> 00:07:37,933
he said he'd been drawn
to the property,
153
00:07:37,957 --> 00:07:40,269
and he talks to the rancher
and says, "I just need
154
00:07:40,293 --> 00:07:41,896
"to meditate
for a couple of minutes.
155
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,522
"I'm drawn here.
I need to do this.
156
00:07:43,546 --> 00:07:45,006
Can you let me on the property?"
157
00:07:47,092 --> 00:07:49,570
The rancher kind of
bemusedly says, "Okay,
158
00:07:49,594 --> 00:07:51,405
come on in." He lets the guy in.
159
00:07:51,429 --> 00:07:54,408
The rancher and his son escort
him to the middle homestead
160
00:07:54,432 --> 00:07:56,243
and the rancher and his son
are watching the guy
161
00:07:56,267 --> 00:07:57,870
and just kind of
chuckling to themselves.
162
00:07:57,894 --> 00:08:00,206
They hear this thing
in the brush,
163
00:08:00,230 --> 00:08:02,941
and then they look over
and there's something moving.
164
00:08:05,527 --> 00:08:07,004
And then it comes out
of the brush,
165
00:08:07,028 --> 00:08:09,674
right up to where this guy is,
166
00:08:09,698 --> 00:08:12,301
and it-it looked like
the creature in Predator
167
00:08:12,325 --> 00:08:14,804
with the camouflage,
the opaque c-camouflage,
168
00:08:14,828 --> 00:08:16,889
the invisibility technology.
169
00:08:16,913 --> 00:08:19,165
This thing comes right up
to this guy and roars.
170
00:08:21,584 --> 00:08:25,481
Scares the hell out of this guy
who opens his eyes, flies back,
171
00:08:25,505 --> 00:08:26,732
lands on his back.
172
00:08:26,756 --> 00:08:29,527
The rancher and his son
go rushing over to him.
173
00:08:29,551 --> 00:08:32,488
He's petrified, grabbing them,
won't let go.
174
00:08:32,512 --> 00:08:35,533
They escort him off the property
and he swears it's the devil,
175
00:08:35,557 --> 00:08:38,059
it's Satan, you're gonna burn
for this kind of stuff.
176
00:08:39,769 --> 00:08:42,915
Is it possible that
the terrifying creature
177
00:08:42,939 --> 00:08:46,252
witnessed by both the ranchers
and their mysterious visitor
178
00:08:46,276 --> 00:08:49,547
was what the Navajo call
a skinwalker?
179
00:08:49,571 --> 00:08:53,759
Was it a being
from another world?
180
00:08:53,783 --> 00:08:56,554
Even another dimension?
181
00:08:56,578 --> 00:09:00,349
Such stories have inspired
countless curiosity seekers
182
00:09:00,373 --> 00:09:03,185
to make pilgrimages
to the ranch.
183
00:09:03,209 --> 00:09:06,439
But for those who have lived
and worked there,
184
00:09:06,463 --> 00:09:09,859
like current ranch
superintendent Tom Winterton,
185
00:09:09,883 --> 00:09:14,030
Skinwalker Ranch is not a place
to be taken lightly.
186
00:09:14,054 --> 00:09:18,367
I'd been warned
not to dig on this ranch,
187
00:09:18,391 --> 00:09:21,203
which I thought
was absolutely ridiculous.
188
00:09:21,227 --> 00:09:23,664
Yeah, it's-it's a ranch,
for crying out loud.
189
00:09:23,688 --> 00:09:26,417
That's what you do. You dig
fence holes, you dig ditches.
190
00:09:26,441 --> 00:09:29,962
And so I paid
zero attention to it.
191
00:09:29,986 --> 00:09:32,214
And whether it's related or not,
192
00:09:32,238 --> 00:09:35,593
I ended up getting
this severe head injury
193
00:09:35,617 --> 00:09:38,971
that causes my head to swell up.
194
00:09:38,995 --> 00:09:41,932
I had fluid that separated
the fatty tissue from my skull,
195
00:09:41,956 --> 00:09:43,809
and to this day, my doctors
196
00:09:43,833 --> 00:09:47,313
still haven't come up with
an explanation of what happened.
197
00:09:47,337 --> 00:09:50,274
What they did say was that
what happened to me
198
00:09:50,298 --> 00:09:53,027
just was not medically possible,
199
00:09:53,051 --> 00:09:55,529
but I'd be lying if I didn't say
that there are things
200
00:09:55,553 --> 00:09:58,098
that have happened here
that have shaken me to my core.
201
00:09:59,933 --> 00:10:02,536
When we patrol the-the perimeter
of the place,
202
00:10:02,560 --> 00:10:05,623
both on foot
and with our vehicles, um,
203
00:10:05,647 --> 00:10:07,124
we are heavily armed.
204
00:10:07,148 --> 00:10:11,128
And that's not necessarily
205
00:10:11,152 --> 00:10:14,006
because we're looking
to hurt anybody.
206
00:10:14,030 --> 00:10:17,384
It's more of we don't know
what we're dealing with,
207
00:10:17,408 --> 00:10:19,512
-and it's a dangerous place...
-Morning.
208
00:10:19,536 --> 00:10:21,013
Hey, Caleb. How you doing, man?
209
00:10:21,037 --> 00:10:23,933
between the natural things
that are here
210
00:10:23,957 --> 00:10:25,768
and then also the unknown.
211
00:10:25,792 --> 00:10:30,564
What could possibly explain
so many incredible encounters
212
00:10:30,588 --> 00:10:35,361
being reported on a single
512-acre stretch of land
213
00:10:35,385 --> 00:10:38,823
and by multiple groups of people
214
00:10:38,847 --> 00:10:42,159
over a span
of hundreds of years?
215
00:10:42,183 --> 00:10:44,870
Do the many accounts of UFOs
216
00:10:44,894 --> 00:10:47,790
point to an extraterrestrial
connection?
217
00:10:47,814 --> 00:10:50,751
Perhaps further clues
can be found
218
00:10:50,775 --> 00:10:53,337
by more closely examining
the stories
219
00:10:53,361 --> 00:10:56,215
of the skinwalker
and its connection
220
00:10:56,239 --> 00:10:58,283
to ancient gods.
221
00:11:08,585 --> 00:11:11,004
The mid-1990s.
222
00:11:12,714 --> 00:11:15,818
The current caretakers
of the ranch, the Shermans,
223
00:11:15,842 --> 00:11:18,487
are entering their third month
on the property
224
00:11:18,511 --> 00:11:20,906
when they begin to experience
what they believe
225
00:11:20,930 --> 00:11:23,534
to be paranormal activity.
226
00:11:23,558 --> 00:11:26,996
They give their accounts
of the strange events
227
00:11:27,020 --> 00:11:30,023
to investigative journalist
George Knapp.
228
00:11:31,524 --> 00:11:33,752
So, the wife goes
grocery shopping,
229
00:11:33,776 --> 00:11:37,030
she buys enough food
for a couple of weeks.
230
00:11:39,032 --> 00:11:42,094
She comes home, takes all
this stuff out of the bag,
231
00:11:42,118 --> 00:11:44,346
puts it in the cabinets
232
00:11:44,370 --> 00:11:47,433
and goes out of the room,
comes back,
233
00:11:47,457 --> 00:11:49,626
all the stuff's
back in the bags.
234
00:11:51,211 --> 00:11:52,688
She takes a shower
in the morning,
235
00:11:52,712 --> 00:11:56,716
locks the door,
has a towel and a hairbrush.
236
00:11:58,051 --> 00:11:59,695
Gets out of the shower,
the door is still locked,
237
00:11:59,719 --> 00:12:02,323
but the towel
and the hairbrush are gone.
238
00:12:02,347 --> 00:12:06,059
The hairbrush is found later
in the freezer.
239
00:12:07,810 --> 00:12:09,955
Initially, it was only
Mrs. Sherman
240
00:12:09,979 --> 00:12:13,584
who witnessed the poltergeist
activity on the ranch.
241
00:12:13,608 --> 00:12:18,529
But it wasn't long before her
husband had his own experiences.
242
00:12:20,073 --> 00:12:22,343
The rancher's out using
a post hole digger,
243
00:12:22,367 --> 00:12:26,055
digging this big, heavy
piece of equipment.
244
00:12:26,079 --> 00:12:28,057
He's digging holes
to put fencing in.
245
00:12:28,081 --> 00:12:30,809
He stops for a second,
wipes his brow, looks around,
246
00:12:30,833 --> 00:12:33,086
the post hole digger is gone.
247
00:12:35,755 --> 00:12:40,093
He finds it three weeks later,
75 feet up in a cottonwood tree.
248
00:12:45,139 --> 00:12:50,246
The Shermans' experiences,
while bizarre, are not unique.
249
00:12:50,270 --> 00:12:51,997
We're gonna pull some data
up here that we took,
250
00:12:52,021 --> 00:12:54,416
- -so lets take look at this.
- Members of the team
251
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,086
currently investigating
Skinwalker Ranch have reported
252
00:12:57,110 --> 00:13:01,715
similar poltergeist-like
phenomena on the property.
253
00:13:01,739 --> 00:13:05,219
One of the weird experiences
I've had is
254
00:13:05,243 --> 00:13:08,013
I was in my bedroom
in the command center
255
00:13:08,037 --> 00:13:09,265
trying to go to sleep.
256
00:13:09,289 --> 00:13:11,183
There was no one else around.
257
00:13:11,207 --> 00:13:15,813
And it felt like someone
came up and kneed the bed.
258
00:13:15,837 --> 00:13:18,440
-
-And it jostles the whole thing.
259
00:13:18,464 --> 00:13:22,111
I got up and wandered around
to see if something happened.
260
00:13:22,135 --> 00:13:26,532
There was nothing really that
could've made just a big shake
261
00:13:26,556 --> 00:13:29,201
of the bed as if some individual
had bumped into it.
262
00:13:29,225 --> 00:13:33,831
I've heard voices
on multiple occasions.
263
00:13:33,855 --> 00:13:37,293
I've had individuals with me
that heard the voices, too.
264
00:13:37,317 --> 00:13:40,212
The interesting thing is
is that I have no idea
265
00:13:40,236 --> 00:13:42,464
whether that's an actual
audible voice
266
00:13:42,488 --> 00:13:45,134
or something
that's playing out in my head.
267
00:13:45,158 --> 00:13:48,262
And there are specific places
on the ranch
268
00:13:48,286 --> 00:13:52,683
where you walk into it and it's
almost as if you're walking
269
00:13:52,707 --> 00:13:54,476
into a room of people.
270
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:57,062
You're, like, asking,
"excuse me,"
271
00:13:57,086 --> 00:13:59,648
as you walk through the space,
'cause you feel
272
00:13:59,672 --> 00:14:02,192
like you're gonna
bump into somebody.
273
00:14:02,216 --> 00:14:06,196
But if paranormal activity
really is occurring,
274
00:14:06,220 --> 00:14:07,805
what could be causing it?
275
00:14:09,348 --> 00:14:11,994
Author and researcher
Lynn Picknett believes
276
00:14:12,018 --> 00:14:14,038
that all of
the strange phenomena
277
00:14:14,062 --> 00:14:18,649
occurring on Skinwalker Ranch
must be interconnected.
278
00:14:20,610 --> 00:14:24,423
When you're looking at the
phenomena at Skinwalker Ranch,
279
00:14:24,447 --> 00:14:26,800
you're looking at all sorts
of manifestations.
280
00:14:26,824 --> 00:14:29,845
But perhaps, really, you're
looking at one phenomenon.
281
00:14:29,869 --> 00:14:33,557
Certainly, one of
the most dramatic type
282
00:14:33,581 --> 00:14:37,376
of phenomenon ever in paranormal
is a poltergeist phenomenon...
283
00:14:39,670 --> 00:14:41,648
meaning literally
"noisy sprit,"
284
00:14:41,672 --> 00:14:44,383
but a destructive haunting.
285
00:14:45,927 --> 00:14:49,907
It's very likely
that all of the various,
286
00:14:49,931 --> 00:14:53,285
multifarious,
paranormal incidents
287
00:14:53,309 --> 00:14:57,081
at the Skinwalker Ranch
are caused by one entity
288
00:14:57,105 --> 00:14:58,874
or one source of energy,
289
00:14:58,898 --> 00:15:03,045
and it's not good energy
and it's not a good entity.
290
00:15:03,069 --> 00:15:05,964
While paranormal researchers
291
00:15:05,988 --> 00:15:08,550
often attribute
poltergeist phenomena
292
00:15:08,574 --> 00:15:12,429
to either a spiritual entity
or telekinetic energy,
293
00:15:12,453 --> 00:15:16,100
according to the Navajo,
it also fits the profile
294
00:15:16,124 --> 00:15:20,711
of the skinwalker, which is a
shape-shifter and a trickster.
295
00:15:21,963 --> 00:15:25,567
The, idea of the skinwalker
296
00:15:25,591 --> 00:15:30,072
being a prankster comes
from a lot of Navajo tales
297
00:15:30,096 --> 00:15:34,118
where they talk about
the coyote being a trickster.
298
00:15:34,142 --> 00:15:36,912
But the skinwalker
doesn't always use
299
00:15:36,936 --> 00:15:40,499
the guise of a coyote,
he'll use the guise of a wolf.
300
00:15:40,523 --> 00:15:44,086
He'll use anything
that he has the skin for.
301
00:15:44,110 --> 00:15:47,798
It's said
that they can change into owls,
302
00:15:47,822 --> 00:15:50,134
they can change
into crows or ravens,
303
00:15:50,158 --> 00:15:54,930
um, they can change into bobcats
if they have that skin.
304
00:15:54,954 --> 00:15:58,267
Our view on it is that
they're manipulating
305
00:15:58,291 --> 00:16:00,751
the DNA of their own body.
306
00:16:03,546 --> 00:16:06,441
Stories of beings
like the skinwalker
307
00:16:06,465 --> 00:16:09,319
that change shape
and deceive humans
308
00:16:09,343 --> 00:16:12,531
can be found in cultures
throughout the world.
309
00:16:12,555 --> 00:16:16,451
Sometimes identified
as trickster gods,
310
00:16:16,475 --> 00:16:19,705
they are often described
as coming from another world,
311
00:16:19,729 --> 00:16:21,290
or another dimension.
312
00:16:21,314 --> 00:16:24,960
We have the Scandanavian stories
of-of Loki,
313
00:16:24,984 --> 00:16:27,838
who's very much, of a trickster.
314
00:16:27,862 --> 00:16:31,049
We have Celtic stories
of the-the fairies
315
00:16:31,073 --> 00:16:33,510
who are also tricksters.
316
00:16:33,534 --> 00:16:36,471
We have stories of-of Krishna
317
00:16:36,495 --> 00:16:39,600
being also a trickster-type god
318
00:16:39,624 --> 00:16:43,187
who likes to make jokes
on people.
319
00:16:43,211 --> 00:16:46,565
So, throughout the world,
we have these stories
320
00:16:46,589 --> 00:16:52,070
of trickster beings who can also
shape-shift into other bodies.
321
00:16:52,094 --> 00:16:56,700
This seems to be some entity,
an extraterrestrial,
322
00:16:56,724 --> 00:16:59,328
who's acting as a skinwalker.
323
00:16:59,352 --> 00:17:01,371
Perhaps he's an alien
who's caught
324
00:17:01,395 --> 00:17:04,875
in this interdimensional doorway
325
00:17:04,899 --> 00:17:08,712
and manifests from time to time
326
00:17:08,736 --> 00:17:12,007
and ultimately
terrorizes this ranch.
327
00:17:12,031 --> 00:17:14,343
Is it possible
that the skinwalker
328
00:17:14,367 --> 00:17:16,595
is an extraterrestrial being
329
00:17:16,619 --> 00:17:19,223
that has crossed over
from another dimension?
330
00:17:19,247 --> 00:17:21,934
A parallel universe?
331
00:17:21,958 --> 00:17:25,437
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest that in addition
332
00:17:25,461 --> 00:17:27,689
to the stories
of trickster gods,
333
00:17:27,713 --> 00:17:29,733
primitive rock art
provides evidence
334
00:17:29,757 --> 00:17:32,385
of an otherworldly connection.
335
00:17:33,886 --> 00:17:35,489
At Nine Mile Canyon,
336
00:17:35,513 --> 00:17:39,034
just 60 miles south
of Skinwalker Ranch,
337
00:17:39,058 --> 00:17:42,371
mysterious-looking
creatures abound
338
00:17:42,395 --> 00:17:45,707
with giant antennae
and oddly-shaped heads.
339
00:17:45,731 --> 00:17:49,545
For many members of both
the Navajo and the Ute tribes,
340
00:17:49,569 --> 00:17:54,031
they represent
ancient visitors from the stars.
341
00:17:55,408 --> 00:17:57,386
When you see these figures,
342
00:17:57,410 --> 00:18:00,222
I have been told
that these are star people,
343
00:18:00,246 --> 00:18:05,227
these are people from,
other worlds or other dimensions
344
00:18:05,251 --> 00:18:09,606
that have shown up and,
met and communicated
345
00:18:09,630 --> 00:18:12,818
with the,
ancient people that live there.
346
00:18:12,842 --> 00:18:15,612
A lot of the rock writing
that have
347
00:18:15,636 --> 00:18:20,409
what might be considered portals
that are like a spindle
348
00:18:20,433 --> 00:18:24,121
are holes within
the universe that allow you
349
00:18:24,145 --> 00:18:29,209
to go into different dimensions.
350
00:18:29,233 --> 00:18:33,630
Not far from Nine Mile Canyon
are similar petroglyphs,
351
00:18:33,654 --> 00:18:38,552
at Sego Canyon, San Rafael Swell
and Temple Mountain.
352
00:18:38,576 --> 00:18:42,180
They look like spacemen.
353
00:18:42,204 --> 00:18:44,516
You have these
strange creatures that,
354
00:18:44,540 --> 00:18:45,934
for all intents and purposes,
355
00:18:45,958 --> 00:18:48,770
seem to be floating
up in the sky.
356
00:18:48,794 --> 00:18:51,273
Hey appear to wear helmets.
357
00:18:51,297 --> 00:18:53,275
Very strange.
358
00:18:53,299 --> 00:18:58,697
These figures have
vortex symbols around them.
359
00:18:58,721 --> 00:19:01,950
You have to wonder exactly
who is making these petroglyphs
360
00:19:01,974 --> 00:19:03,660
and what they were seeing,
361
00:19:03,684 --> 00:19:07,289
because they look like
they're extraterrestrials.
362
00:19:07,313 --> 00:19:12,961
Do the petroglyphs in the areas
surrounding Skinwalker Ranch
363
00:19:12,985 --> 00:19:14,630
point to Utah being a place
364
00:19:14,654 --> 00:19:19,509
of ancient and perhaps
even modern alien visitation?
365
00:19:19,533 --> 00:19:23,096
And do the spiral
petroglyphs indicate
366
00:19:23,120 --> 00:19:25,766
that there could even
be some sort of portal
367
00:19:25,790 --> 00:19:30,419
in the Uintah Mountains,
opening to other dimensions?
368
00:19:36,342 --> 00:19:37,968
Fort Duchesne, Utah...
369
00:19:39,220 --> 00:19:41,990
1968.
370
00:19:42,014 --> 00:19:45,994
17-year-old Larry Cesspooch
is with his friends
371
00:19:46,018 --> 00:19:48,622
driving along an infamous
stretch of road
372
00:19:48,646 --> 00:19:50,398
near Skinwalker Ranch.
373
00:19:52,358 --> 00:19:55,337
As they approach a spot
known as Dead Man's Curve,
374
00:19:55,361 --> 00:19:56,963
named for the high number
375
00:19:56,987 --> 00:19:59,007
of car crashes
that have occurred there,
376
00:19:59,031 --> 00:20:03,220
they spot a bright object
in the sky.
377
00:20:03,244 --> 00:20:05,972
We were driving around,
with a bunch of us,
378
00:20:05,996 --> 00:20:10,686
and we come around
Dead Man's Curve and,
379
00:20:10,710 --> 00:20:14,231
the driver looked in
his rearview mirror and said,
380
00:20:14,255 --> 00:20:16,066
"What the heck is that?"
381
00:20:16,090 --> 00:20:18,527
It was a fireball,
382
00:20:18,551 --> 00:20:21,363
and that fireball
was coming up behind us.
383
00:20:21,387 --> 00:20:24,700
And so we told him to go faster,
384
00:20:24,724 --> 00:20:29,705
and this thing
just flew over our head.
385
00:20:29,729 --> 00:20:34,501
When I told my mother, she had
talked about a similar incident
386
00:20:34,525 --> 00:20:36,336
when she was younger.
387
00:20:36,360 --> 00:20:41,883
And other tribal members
have seen that fireball.
388
00:20:41,907 --> 00:20:44,845
Other reports indicate
that the local residents
389
00:20:44,869 --> 00:20:48,557
have been regularly witnessing
similar strange events,
390
00:20:48,581 --> 00:20:53,520
both in and around
Skinwalker Ranch, for decades.
391
00:20:53,544 --> 00:20:57,065
The various accounts
describe flashing lights,
392
00:20:57,089 --> 00:21:00,235
floating orbs and UFOs.
393
00:21:00,259 --> 00:21:04,030
In this entire area,
there have been hundreds
394
00:21:04,054 --> 00:21:06,408
of reports of UFOs, you know,
395
00:21:06,432 --> 00:21:08,952
multiple people
seeing the same ones.
396
00:21:08,976 --> 00:21:11,788
This particular part of the area
has kind of gotten the nickname
397
00:21:11,812 --> 00:21:14,499
of UFO Alley
because of the number
398
00:21:14,523 --> 00:21:17,335
of those sightings
that had been reported.
399
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,379
We did see tears.
400
00:21:19,403 --> 00:21:22,048
We had openings
in the sky, voices,
401
00:21:22,072 --> 00:21:24,634
crafts coming through, orbs.
402
00:21:24,658 --> 00:21:26,178
Is that E. T.?
403
00:21:26,202 --> 00:21:27,596
Hard to say.
404
00:21:27,620 --> 00:21:30,932
Reality of the events
is absolute.
405
00:21:30,956 --> 00:21:35,562
I have personally
watched as portions of the mesa,
406
00:21:35,586 --> 00:21:40,567
as large as 500 to 600 feet,
appeared to glow.
407
00:21:40,591 --> 00:21:43,278
We may be looking at
a terrestrial light source,
408
00:21:43,302 --> 00:21:46,806
or we may be looking at
something far more interesting.
409
00:21:48,432 --> 00:21:51,787
In the 1990s, the owners
of Skinwalker Ranch
410
00:21:51,811 --> 00:21:55,499
also witnessed strange orbs
in the sky.
411
00:21:55,523 --> 00:21:58,960
When they relayed their
experiences to George Knapp,
412
00:21:58,984 --> 00:22:03,256
he found that the UFOs were tied
to the other paranormal activity
413
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,533
taking place on the property.
414
00:22:07,952 --> 00:22:09,971
They start hearing
heavy footsteps
415
00:22:09,995 --> 00:22:12,224
outside their bedroom window
at night.
416
00:22:12,248 --> 00:22:14,810
Then they start seeing
these dark, humanoid shapes
417
00:22:14,834 --> 00:22:16,293
in the windows at night.
418
00:22:17,545 --> 00:22:20,422
Then they start hearing
the footsteps inside the house.
419
00:22:22,967 --> 00:22:24,194
Then they wake up at night,
420
00:22:24,218 --> 00:22:26,887
and there's the thing
at the bottom of their bed.
421
00:22:31,642 --> 00:22:33,829
They would go out at night,
they'd walk around,
422
00:22:33,853 --> 00:22:36,289
they'd start hearing disembodied
voices in the sky
423
00:22:36,313 --> 00:22:38,625
above their heads,
424
00:22:38,649 --> 00:22:41,628
speaking some strange language,
almost like mocking them.
425
00:22:41,652 --> 00:22:44,297
They start seeing little orbs
floating around,
426
00:22:44,321 --> 00:22:45,841
seemingly intelligently
controlled,
427
00:22:45,865 --> 00:22:48,635
flitting around in the trees.
428
00:22:48,659 --> 00:22:51,513
Is it possible that
reports of floating orbs,
429
00:22:51,537 --> 00:22:53,348
poltergeist activity,
430
00:22:53,372 --> 00:22:55,559
and the creature known as
the skinwalker
431
00:22:55,583 --> 00:22:58,627
are not separate phenomena?
432
00:23:01,547 --> 00:23:03,316
Might they be better understood
433
00:23:03,340 --> 00:23:05,593
by considering them
all together?
434
00:23:07,052 --> 00:23:10,282
Another story told to
George Knapp by the Shermans
435
00:23:10,306 --> 00:23:15,036
may reveal yet another aspect
to the Skinwalker Ranch mystery.
436
00:23:15,060 --> 00:23:18,498
The first day they're
on the property,
437
00:23:18,522 --> 00:23:21,501
they see an animal of some sort
over on the brush line,
438
00:23:21,525 --> 00:23:22,878
and it starts coming
toward them.
439
00:23:22,902 --> 00:23:26,298
The men realize,
"That's a wolf."
440
00:23:26,322 --> 00:23:28,216
It's huge.
The back of the wolf
441
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:29,700
came up to the middle
of his chest.
442
00:23:31,410 --> 00:23:32,554
They petted this thing.
443
00:23:32,578 --> 00:23:34,055
It was a real,
physical creature.
444
00:23:34,079 --> 00:23:37,183
Now, the calves are
in the corral.-
445
00:23:37,207 --> 00:23:39,227
They're all backed up
against one side,
446
00:23:39,251 --> 00:23:40,520
scared of this wolf.
447
00:23:40,544 --> 00:23:42,731
Except one calf
makes the mistake
448
00:23:42,755 --> 00:23:45,734
of sticking its snout out
between the bars of the corral.
449
00:23:45,758 --> 00:23:49,779
- -The wolf sees it...
450
00:23:49,803 --> 00:23:51,573
leaps in the air, like, 20 feet,
451
00:23:51,597 --> 00:23:53,658
chomps down on the head
of this calf
452
00:23:53,682 --> 00:23:56,286
and is trying to drag it
out of the corral.
453
00:23:56,310 --> 00:23:58,747
His son grabs a .357
out of the truck
454
00:23:58,771 --> 00:24:03,418
and brings it over,
Dad pops a shot into this wolf.
455
00:24:03,442 --> 00:24:05,587
No yelp, no blood, no anything.
456
00:24:05,611 --> 00:24:07,071
Shoots it a second
and third time.
457
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:09,841
Now this is the fourth shot
458
00:24:09,865 --> 00:24:12,385
they've put into this wolf,
and then a fifth shot
459
00:24:12,409 --> 00:24:13,720
goes right into the chest,
460
00:24:13,744 --> 00:24:16,431
a chunk of flesh and fur
comes popping off the side
461
00:24:16,455 --> 00:24:17,724
and falls on the ground.
462
00:24:17,748 --> 00:24:21,061
And this wolf just casually
turns around and starts
463
00:24:21,085 --> 00:24:23,396
walking away, he's had enough.
464
00:24:23,420 --> 00:24:25,774
Five shots in this thing
and didn't kill it.
465
00:24:25,798 --> 00:24:29,569
The Shermans say they pursued
the wolf into the brush,
466
00:24:29,593 --> 00:24:32,238
following its tracks
on the wet ground.
467
00:24:32,262 --> 00:24:36,242
They get to a clearing beyond
the brush, a muddy area,
468
00:24:36,266 --> 00:24:38,578
the tracks go all the way out
into the middle
469
00:24:38,602 --> 00:24:41,915
of the muddy field and stop.
470
00:24:41,939 --> 00:24:45,401
It's gone. It's as if it had
been sucked up into the sky.
471
00:24:47,069 --> 00:24:49,464
Later, when the Shermans
told this story
472
00:24:49,488 --> 00:24:52,300
to a group of scientists
that had come to investigate
473
00:24:52,324 --> 00:24:55,512
the ranch, they were shown
a series of photographs
474
00:24:55,536 --> 00:24:58,014
and asked if any of them
resembled the animal
475
00:24:58,038 --> 00:24:59,641
they encountered.
476
00:24:59,665 --> 00:25:03,269
They have a lineup
of different types of wolves,
477
00:25:03,293 --> 00:25:05,105
to ask each of
the family members,
478
00:25:05,129 --> 00:25:06,356
show us what this looked like.
479
00:25:06,380 --> 00:25:07,899
And the one that
they all identified
480
00:25:07,923 --> 00:25:09,859
is what's known as a dire wolf.
481
00:25:09,883 --> 00:25:14,489
Dire wolf, of course, has been
extinct for 10,000 years.
482
00:25:14,513 --> 00:25:18,118
If a dire wolf is, in fact,
what the Shermans witnessed,
483
00:25:18,142 --> 00:25:21,329
could it present another clue
as to what is happening
484
00:25:21,353 --> 00:25:23,230
at Skinwalker Ranch?
485
00:25:24,815 --> 00:25:26,835
Many ancient astronaut
theorists believe
486
00:25:26,859 --> 00:25:29,170
the answer is simple.
487
00:25:29,194 --> 00:25:33,008
According to them, the ranch
most likely contains
488
00:25:33,032 --> 00:25:35,719
some kind of
interdimensional portal,
489
00:25:35,743 --> 00:25:38,555
one that would allow, not only
travel from one dimension
490
00:25:38,579 --> 00:25:43,226
to another, but to various
points in time and space.
491
00:25:43,250 --> 00:25:46,688
And they also believe that
the man who knows the truth
492
00:25:46,712 --> 00:25:49,691
is the eccentric billionaire
who recently owned
493
00:25:49,715 --> 00:25:53,135
Skinwalker Ranch,
Robert Bigelow.
494
00:25:56,055 --> 00:25:59,826
Skinwalker Ranch. 1996.
495
00:25:59,850 --> 00:26:03,413
Following two years
of non-stop paranormal
496
00:26:03,437 --> 00:26:05,707
and extraterrestrial phenomena,
497
00:26:05,731 --> 00:26:09,586
the Shermans are driven
to sell the ranch.
498
00:26:09,610 --> 00:26:12,964
The purchaser is a man
almost as mysterious
499
00:26:12,988 --> 00:26:15,032
as the property itself.
500
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,762
The study of Skinwalker Ranch
first began
501
00:26:18,786 --> 00:26:19,929
with private industry.
502
00:26:19,953 --> 00:26:21,514
It was a man
named Robert Bigelow.
503
00:26:21,538 --> 00:26:24,184
And he put together a team
of scientists
504
00:26:24,208 --> 00:26:25,351
to study the phenomenon
505
00:26:25,375 --> 00:26:27,437
and what was occurring
at the ranch.
506
00:26:27,461 --> 00:26:31,066
The ranch played the role
of a living laboratory
507
00:26:31,090 --> 00:26:32,442
to really be able to focus
508
00:26:32,466 --> 00:26:34,527
scientifically
and try to understand
509
00:26:34,551 --> 00:26:37,363
what is going on at this ranch.
510
00:26:37,387 --> 00:26:41,159
Billionaire Las Vegas
businessman Robert Bigelow
511
00:26:41,183 --> 00:26:42,994
made his fortune in real estate.
512
00:26:43,018 --> 00:26:46,039
But since then, he's turned
to investing his money
513
00:26:46,063 --> 00:26:49,125
in aerospace,
and the goal of searching
514
00:26:49,149 --> 00:26:51,586
for extraterrestrial life.
515
00:26:51,610 --> 00:26:53,797
It came to the attention
of Robert Bigelow,
516
00:26:53,821 --> 00:26:56,508
who's probably spent more money
pursuing the UFO mystery
517
00:26:56,532 --> 00:26:58,134
than any person in history.
518
00:26:58,158 --> 00:27:00,011
He flew up,
met with the rancher,
519
00:27:00,035 --> 00:27:01,471
took his team up there,
520
00:27:01,495 --> 00:27:03,932
heard the experiences himself
and bought it.
521
00:27:03,956 --> 00:27:07,560
He put a team of scientists
on the property,
522
00:27:07,584 --> 00:27:09,187
cameras, scientific gear,
523
00:27:09,211 --> 00:27:12,065
so for the next seven years
after he bought it,
524
00:27:12,089 --> 00:27:15,193
he had people on the property
pretty much 24-7.
525
00:27:15,217 --> 00:27:18,530
I was with, Bob Bigelow
the day he went up
526
00:27:18,554 --> 00:27:20,824
and, physically bought
the ranch.
527
00:27:20,848 --> 00:27:24,160
I was the first one
to spend the night on the ridge
528
00:27:24,184 --> 00:27:26,788
overlooking the ranch itself.
529
00:27:26,812 --> 00:27:30,667
Bottom line is, some very, very
strange things happened there
530
00:27:30,691 --> 00:27:33,461
that just defy description.
531
00:27:33,485 --> 00:27:38,174
The year before the purchase
of Skinwalker Ranch
532
00:27:38,198 --> 00:27:40,510
Bigelow had founded
the National Institute
533
00:27:40,534 --> 00:27:43,555
for Discovery Science, or NIDS.
534
00:27:43,579 --> 00:27:45,807
Staffed with personnel
from a variety
535
00:27:45,831 --> 00:27:46,975
of different disciplines,
536
00:27:46,999 --> 00:27:48,852
NIDS was formed to study
a wide range
537
00:27:48,876 --> 00:27:52,856
of unexplained events,
from the supernatural
538
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,816
to the extraterrestrial.
539
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,236
When Bigelow moved into
Skinwalker Ranch,
540
00:27:58,260 --> 00:28:00,822
he took his NIDS scientists
with him,
541
00:28:00,846 --> 00:28:03,533
mounted cameras
and other monitoring devices
542
00:28:03,557 --> 00:28:06,244
over the entire property,
and sought to study
543
00:28:06,268 --> 00:28:10,832
the paranormal phenomena
up close and in person.
544
00:28:10,856 --> 00:28:14,669
He even built a laboratory
on the property.
545
00:28:14,693 --> 00:28:18,423
He also protected the perimeter
of Skinwalker Ranch
546
00:28:18,447 --> 00:28:20,300
with impenetrable security,
547
00:28:20,324 --> 00:28:21,676
and has kept his findings
548
00:28:21,700 --> 00:28:23,344
hidden from the public
to this day.
549
00:28:23,368 --> 00:28:28,266
You have to ask
yourself why would Bigelow
550
00:28:28,290 --> 00:28:30,935
throw millions and millions
of dollars
551
00:28:30,959 --> 00:28:33,438
at that particular project?
552
00:28:33,462 --> 00:28:35,023
What's going on there?
553
00:28:35,047 --> 00:28:38,192
And interestingly,
Robert Bigelow,
554
00:28:38,216 --> 00:28:41,779
after he sold this ranch,
never came forward
555
00:28:41,803 --> 00:28:44,532
to release what
he actually experienced.
556
00:28:44,556 --> 00:28:47,952
He kept all this information
to himself.
557
00:28:47,976 --> 00:28:50,872
Okay, either
he's not saying anything
558
00:28:50,896 --> 00:28:53,374
because it's so incredible,
559
00:28:53,398 --> 00:28:55,460
or because
there's nothing there.
560
00:28:55,484 --> 00:28:58,922
So because he's such
an elusive figure,
561
00:28:58,946 --> 00:29:01,299
it's a question,
which one is it?
562
00:29:01,323 --> 00:29:03,760
While Robert Bigelow
did his best
563
00:29:03,784 --> 00:29:06,012
to keep his investigation
of Skinwalker Ranch
564
00:29:06,036 --> 00:29:07,388
off the public radar,
565
00:29:07,412 --> 00:29:09,807
he himself became
front page news
566
00:29:09,831 --> 00:29:14,354
on December 16, 2017,
when The New York Times
567
00:29:14,378 --> 00:29:16,940
ran an explosive story entitled
568
00:29:16,964 --> 00:29:19,484
"Glowing Auras and Black Money:
569
00:29:19,508 --> 00:29:23,279
The Pentagon's Mysterious
U. F. O. Program."
570
00:29:23,303 --> 00:29:27,533
The article reported
that in 2007,
571
00:29:27,557 --> 00:29:31,287
$22 million was allocated
for a top-secret
572
00:29:31,311 --> 00:29:34,374
U.S. government
to investigate UFOs,
573
00:29:34,398 --> 00:29:37,460
called the Advanced Aerospace
Threat Identification Program,
574
00:29:37,484 --> 00:29:38,836
or AATIP.
575
00:29:38,860 --> 00:29:41,464
The driving force
behind this project
576
00:29:41,488 --> 00:29:43,967
was none other
than Robert Bigelow,
577
00:29:43,991 --> 00:29:46,177
whose company Bigelow Aerospace
578
00:29:46,201 --> 00:29:48,304
conducted the bulk
of the research
579
00:29:48,328 --> 00:29:52,350
from their headquarters
on Skinwalker Ranch.
580
00:29:52,374 --> 00:29:54,769
Bigelow Aerospace
581
00:29:54,793 --> 00:29:56,062
is the one who received
582
00:29:56,086 --> 00:29:58,690
most of the $22 million
583
00:29:58,714 --> 00:30:02,110
to do aerospace investigations.
584
00:30:02,134 --> 00:30:05,405
All of the news that came out
in mid-December,
585
00:30:05,429 --> 00:30:09,450
and nobody ask anybody,
"What about the warehouse
586
00:30:09,474 --> 00:30:12,870
that has extraterrestrial
artifacts in it?"
587
00:30:12,894 --> 00:30:15,206
When questioned about AATIP,
588
00:30:15,230 --> 00:30:17,458
government officials have stated
589
00:30:17,482 --> 00:30:19,585
that it was meant
to identify craft
590
00:30:19,609 --> 00:30:21,546
not from other worlds
591
00:30:21,570 --> 00:30:23,381
but from other countries.
592
00:30:23,405 --> 00:30:27,301
However, this view is not shared
by Robert Bigelow.
593
00:30:27,325 --> 00:30:31,681
Did his investigation
of Skinwalker Ranch
594
00:30:31,705 --> 00:30:33,850
convince him
that extraterrestrials
595
00:30:33,874 --> 00:30:36,019
are present on Earth?
596
00:30:36,043 --> 00:30:38,563
Rumors include having found
597
00:30:38,587 --> 00:30:41,357
some exotic materials
on the property.
598
00:30:41,381 --> 00:30:44,944
There's talk of certain rods
599
00:30:44,968 --> 00:30:48,531
made up of exotic elements
from the periodic table.
600
00:30:48,555 --> 00:30:52,118
Some kind of base or perhaps
an ancient alien artifact
601
00:30:52,142 --> 00:30:54,746
beneath the property.
602
00:30:54,770 --> 00:30:57,290
The findings of Bigelow's team
603
00:30:57,314 --> 00:30:59,959
have never been fully disclosed.
604
00:30:59,983 --> 00:31:02,003
There are all sorts
of rumors and stories
605
00:31:02,027 --> 00:31:03,421
about things that happened
606
00:31:03,445 --> 00:31:05,739
while the Bigelow team was here
on the property.
607
00:31:06,990 --> 00:31:10,803
They talked about the side
of the mesa opening up
608
00:31:10,827 --> 00:31:12,930
and a spaceship flying
609
00:31:12,954 --> 00:31:15,332
into some sort
of underground base.
610
00:31:18,627 --> 00:31:21,314
Could Robert Bigelow's
experiences confirm
611
00:31:21,338 --> 00:31:24,275
that Skinwalker Ranch
is not only a place
612
00:31:24,299 --> 00:31:26,319
of extraterrestrial visitation
613
00:31:26,343 --> 00:31:30,865
but also contains a portal
through space and time?
614
00:31:30,889 --> 00:31:35,703
Some ancient astronaut theorists
suggest that there is something
615
00:31:35,727 --> 00:31:38,081
even more profound at work
616
00:31:38,105 --> 00:31:40,458
and that Skinwalker Ranch
isn't only
617
00:31:40,482 --> 00:31:42,877
a special place on Earth
618
00:31:42,901 --> 00:31:45,570
but an important location
for the universe.
619
00:31:50,992 --> 00:31:53,346
At Skinwalker Ranch,
620
00:31:53,370 --> 00:31:56,641
a number of strange happenings
have been reported.
621
00:31:56,665 --> 00:32:00,311
Everything from sightings
of prehistoric beasts
622
00:32:00,335 --> 00:32:03,231
and poltergeist activity
623
00:32:03,255 --> 00:32:06,234
to shape-shifting monsters
624
00:32:06,258 --> 00:32:09,695
and mysterious orbs of light
in the sky.
625
00:32:09,719 --> 00:32:12,448
But one detail
seems to be consistent:
626
00:32:12,472 --> 00:32:15,451
the manner in which
these frightening phenomena
627
00:32:15,475 --> 00:32:19,122
suddenly come about,
as if out of thin air.
628
00:32:19,146 --> 00:32:23,376
Could it be that some sort
of portal through space and time
629
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,878
really does exist in this area,
630
00:32:25,902 --> 00:32:29,132
as many ancient astronaut
theorists believe?
631
00:32:29,156 --> 00:32:32,343
And while most
of Robert Bigelow's activities
632
00:32:32,367 --> 00:32:35,930
on the property
have remained top secret,
633
00:32:35,954 --> 00:32:39,308
investigative journalist
George Knapp was able to learn
634
00:32:39,332 --> 00:32:42,294
of at least one
extraordinary encounter.
635
00:32:44,045 --> 00:32:46,440
There was one night, the...
one of the most dramatic things
636
00:32:46,464 --> 00:32:48,651
that happened,
there, two of the scientists--
637
00:32:48,675 --> 00:32:50,319
these are PhD-level people.
638
00:32:50,343 --> 00:32:52,780
They walk around
the middle homestead
639
00:32:52,804 --> 00:32:56,617
and two guys are up on
Skinwalker Ridge looking down.
640
00:32:56,641 --> 00:32:59,662
They've got infrared
equipment, watching.
641
00:32:59,686 --> 00:33:02,790
And one of them with the
infrared sees what looks like
642
00:33:02,814 --> 00:33:04,500
a dirty snowball of light
643
00:33:04,524 --> 00:33:07,712
just hovering a couple
of feet off the ground
644
00:33:07,736 --> 00:33:10,381
and he walkie-talkies
these guys down there,
645
00:33:10,405 --> 00:33:11,716
"Hey, do you see it?"
646
00:33:11,740 --> 00:33:13,885
"Yeah, we see it,
it's kind of vague."
647
00:33:13,909 --> 00:33:16,179
Then he says, "Hey, something's
happening, it's changing."
648
00:33:16,203 --> 00:33:18,681
Our guys are on the ridgeline
looking down,
649
00:33:18,705 --> 00:33:23,686
and you see a light appear
above the ground expand.
650
00:33:23,710 --> 00:33:26,063
This ball of light
was stretching out.
651
00:33:26,087 --> 00:33:28,149
It became a tunnel of light.
652
00:33:28,173 --> 00:33:30,967
Into this tunnel comes
a humanoid figure.
653
00:33:32,594 --> 00:33:34,322
Some kind of monster reached up,
654
00:33:34,346 --> 00:33:36,908
pulled his shoulders
and come out.
655
00:33:36,932 --> 00:33:40,244
Seven or eight feet tall,
black, featureless.
656
00:33:40,268 --> 00:33:44,957
When it gets out, the tunnel
collapses into a ball again.
657
00:33:44,981 --> 00:33:49,337
It was almost as if it was
a dimensional tunnel,
658
00:33:49,361 --> 00:33:51,339
that it was coming
from some other reality.
659
00:33:51,363 --> 00:33:55,301
According to both
the Navajo and Ute tribes,
660
00:33:55,325 --> 00:33:58,846
such portals do exist.
661
00:33:58,870 --> 00:34:02,183
You have to go back to the story
of the emergence of the Navajo.
662
00:34:02,207 --> 00:34:05,853
The story there is that
they went through
663
00:34:05,877 --> 00:34:08,272
several underground worlds,
664
00:34:08,296 --> 00:34:12,568
and in coming to this world,
through a hole in the ground,
665
00:34:12,592 --> 00:34:16,113
or through a portal, if you may.
666
00:34:16,137 --> 00:34:17,823
There are holes--
667
00:34:17,847 --> 00:34:19,659
portals, if you want
to call them that--
668
00:34:19,683 --> 00:34:21,285
within the universe
669
00:34:21,309 --> 00:34:25,081
that allow you to go
into different dimensions,
670
00:34:25,105 --> 00:34:28,125
and those have existed for eons.
671
00:34:28,149 --> 00:34:32,570
So those who know about them
can travel back and forth.
672
00:34:34,531 --> 00:34:36,175
Ancient astronaut theorists
point out
673
00:34:36,199 --> 00:34:39,095
that emerging scientific
theories support
674
00:34:39,119 --> 00:34:43,391
the Native beliefs that other
dimensions not only exist
675
00:34:43,415 --> 00:34:46,936
but that travel
between them is possible.
676
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:49,105
Quantum physics, essentially,
677
00:34:49,129 --> 00:34:53,067
allows for the existence
of multiple dimensions
678
00:34:53,091 --> 00:34:55,027
that coexist with ours.
679
00:34:55,051 --> 00:34:58,364
What we're seeing at places
like the Skinwalker Ranch
680
00:34:58,388 --> 00:35:00,366
are strange creatures,
681
00:35:00,390 --> 00:35:04,662
unusual entities coming through
the portals and the doorways.
682
00:35:04,686 --> 00:35:07,957
It's entirely possible
that creatures and beings
683
00:35:07,981 --> 00:35:09,917
from other realms of existence
684
00:35:09,941 --> 00:35:14,672
could quite literally jump from
their dimension into our world.
685
00:35:14,696 --> 00:35:16,966
More and more,
scientists are talking
686
00:35:16,990 --> 00:35:21,095
in these extraordinary esoteric
terms about very powerful places
687
00:35:21,119 --> 00:35:24,557
where realities
blend or blur together.
688
00:35:24,581 --> 00:35:26,851
From the descriptions
of Skinwalker Ranch,
689
00:35:26,875 --> 00:35:31,004
this could well be
one of those bleed-over places.
690
00:35:32,797 --> 00:35:35,026
While the theory of a portal
at Skinwalker Ranch
691
00:35:35,050 --> 00:35:36,944
may seem incredible,
692
00:35:36,968 --> 00:35:41,282
futurist Caroline Cory takes it
even one step further.
693
00:35:41,306 --> 00:35:45,494
We know that the physical
universe is based on geometry.
694
00:35:45,518 --> 00:35:49,832
We are now predicting
that there is a matrix,
695
00:35:49,856 --> 00:35:52,835
a grid patterning system
around the planet
696
00:35:52,859 --> 00:35:55,880
that is a web-like structure
697
00:35:55,904 --> 00:36:00,009
with specific entry
and exit points
698
00:36:00,033 --> 00:36:02,511
that allow
certain phenomena to happen
699
00:36:02,535 --> 00:36:06,724
that seem supernatural
or paranormal.
700
00:36:06,748 --> 00:36:10,978
If there are tears exactly
at these locations,
701
00:36:11,002 --> 00:36:15,149
you're going to have all kinds
of anomalies that would happen
702
00:36:15,173 --> 00:36:17,151
because of these tears.
703
00:36:17,175 --> 00:36:21,155
You're going to perhaps,
see an anomaly in the sky
704
00:36:21,179 --> 00:36:25,785
or you could also see
a prehistoric animal
705
00:36:25,809 --> 00:36:28,788
cross over
because there's a tear
706
00:36:28,812 --> 00:36:32,249
in this fabric of space itself.
707
00:36:32,273 --> 00:36:35,670
A tear in the fabric of space?
708
00:36:35,694 --> 00:36:37,922
Could it be
that Skinwalker Ranch
709
00:36:37,946 --> 00:36:40,091
is not only home to a portal,
710
00:36:40,115 --> 00:36:43,302
but some sort of cosmic tear
through which entities
711
00:36:43,326 --> 00:36:46,806
from other dimensions,
other parts of the universe
712
00:36:46,830 --> 00:36:50,709
and even other points in time
could be entering our world?
713
00:36:52,961 --> 00:36:57,400
Local tales and traditions do,
in fact, support this theory.
714
00:36:57,424 --> 00:36:59,402
A lot of our investigations
715
00:36:59,426 --> 00:37:01,737
have found that these things
are coming in,
716
00:37:01,761 --> 00:37:03,781
through unknown portals.
717
00:37:03,805 --> 00:37:07,326
Whether the portals
are in the sky or on the ground.
718
00:37:07,350 --> 00:37:10,955
What we've seen from people
describing this to us
719
00:37:10,979 --> 00:37:13,416
is they hear a loud pop.
720
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,919
That the sound actually travels
through your body physically,
721
00:37:16,943 --> 00:37:21,048
and it jolts you.
722
00:37:21,072 --> 00:37:24,051
Could there truly be
a scientific explanation
723
00:37:24,075 --> 00:37:27,930
for the various phenomena
at Skinwalker Ranch?
724
00:37:27,954 --> 00:37:32,852
One that humans are not yet
equipped to fully understand?
725
00:37:32,876 --> 00:37:35,271
Maybe a more important question
726
00:37:35,295 --> 00:37:39,108
is should we seek to get to the
bottom of this mystery at all?
727
00:37:39,132 --> 00:37:44,780
Or are we better off just
leaving Skinwalker Ranch alone?
728
00:37:44,804 --> 00:37:47,658
There are some who believe
that while Skinwalker Ranch
729
00:37:47,682 --> 00:37:49,493
is a dangerous place,
730
00:37:49,517 --> 00:37:53,980
it may also hold the key to
humankind's ultimate survival.
731
00:38:02,906 --> 00:38:06,177
After conducting
a 20-year investigation,
732
00:38:06,201 --> 00:38:11,974
the NIDS team ceases all
operations on Skinwalker Ranch.
733
00:38:11,998 --> 00:38:14,685
Robert Bigelow has
sold the property.
734
00:38:14,709 --> 00:38:17,354
Robert Bigelow owned
the property for 20 years,
735
00:38:17,378 --> 00:38:20,775
and in 2016, he sold it.
He'd had enough.
736
00:38:20,799 --> 00:38:24,779
And one of the reasons
that he and his team didn't want
737
00:38:24,803 --> 00:38:28,282
to have that property anymore
is because there's danger there.
738
00:38:28,306 --> 00:38:31,285
It's real. Bad things happen
to people and animals
739
00:38:31,309 --> 00:38:32,519
on that property.
740
00:38:35,313 --> 00:38:39,251
Fortunately, the person Robert
Bigelow has sold the property to
741
00:38:39,275 --> 00:38:42,630
is committed to continuing
with the investigation,
742
00:38:42,654 --> 00:38:46,926
Salt Lake City real estate
entrepreneur Brandon Fugal.
743
00:38:46,950 --> 00:38:51,263
This new owner here, his
obsession and his willingness
744
00:38:51,287 --> 00:38:54,809
to really put his money where
his mouth's at, it's a new game.
745
00:38:54,833 --> 00:38:57,394
- Tom. My friend.
- Hey, good to see you.
746
00:38:57,418 --> 00:38:59,438
I was approached
by several scientists
747
00:38:59,462 --> 00:39:03,776
that had worked with me
on a past project,
748
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:07,196
were close confidants
of Bob Bigelow,
749
00:39:07,220 --> 00:39:12,326
and they saw an opportunity for
Mr. Bigelow to pass the torch
750
00:39:12,350 --> 00:39:15,496
to someone who not only
had the bandwidth
751
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:19,375
but the resources to really
take the investigation
752
00:39:19,399 --> 00:39:21,502
and the scientific effort
at Skinwalker Ranch
753
00:39:21,526 --> 00:39:23,379
to the next level.
754
00:39:23,403 --> 00:39:26,799
It's the greatest
science project of our time.
755
00:39:26,823 --> 00:39:29,593
The team that I have handpicked
756
00:39:29,617 --> 00:39:32,471
all bring complimentary
skill sets to the table,
757
00:39:32,495 --> 00:39:36,308
whether it be in areas
of scientific investigation,
758
00:39:36,332 --> 00:39:40,354
physics,
construction management.
759
00:39:40,378 --> 00:39:43,983
I don't believe that there
has been any investigation
760
00:39:44,007 --> 00:39:46,652
into the paranormal
or supernatural
761
00:39:46,676 --> 00:39:49,321
that has ever brought to bear
both the resources
762
00:39:49,345 --> 00:39:54,118
and the professionalism and
the sophistication of equipment
763
00:39:54,142 --> 00:39:58,062
that we've brought to this
effort and to this property.
764
00:39:59,898 --> 00:40:02,001
The kinds of devices that we've
deployed across the property
765
00:40:02,025 --> 00:40:06,505
include, of course, surveillance
cameras with audio channels
766
00:40:06,529 --> 00:40:09,925
that allow us to both see
and hear what's taking place
767
00:40:09,949 --> 00:40:12,344
at various locations
on the property.
768
00:40:12,368 --> 00:40:14,096
We also have geophones.
769
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:17,016
These are devices that sense
the vibrations of the ground
770
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,269
due to what may be activity
taking place in beneath our feet
771
00:40:20,293 --> 00:40:21,937
here on this property.
772
00:40:21,961 --> 00:40:24,732
We have devices that sense
electromagnetic disturbances
773
00:40:24,756 --> 00:40:28,027
across a wide range
of the electromagnetic spectrum.
774
00:40:28,051 --> 00:40:30,487
What we want to do
775
00:40:30,511 --> 00:40:33,699
is we're gonna measure microwave
and RF spectrum at altitude.
776
00:40:33,723 --> 00:40:38,120
It's highly possible that there
is something going on here.
777
00:40:38,144 --> 00:40:41,415
We should have film cameras,
infrared cameras,
778
00:40:41,439 --> 00:40:45,210
starlight cameras
and visual observations
779
00:40:45,234 --> 00:40:48,255
going on all the time
looking for things.
780
00:40:48,279 --> 00:40:49,673
But we're gonna get
to the bottom of it.
781
00:40:49,697 --> 00:40:52,009
Coming into Skinwalker Ranch
782
00:40:52,033 --> 00:40:54,178
makes you kind of scrub
783
00:40:54,202 --> 00:40:56,430
your preconceived notions
about things
784
00:40:56,454 --> 00:40:58,349
and, you know,
it makes you wonder,
785
00:40:58,373 --> 00:40:59,558
are we alone in the universe?
786
00:40:59,582 --> 00:41:02,311
Is there a higher power?
787
00:41:02,335 --> 00:41:04,813
It can be frustrating and
exhilarating at the same time,
788
00:41:04,837 --> 00:41:07,465
trying to unravel
these types of things.
789
00:41:10,259 --> 00:41:13,238
Will the new investigation
already underway
790
00:41:13,262 --> 00:41:16,867
at Skinwalker Ranch
finally provide some answers
791
00:41:16,891 --> 00:41:18,744
to the mysteries
that have persisted
792
00:41:18,768 --> 00:41:21,664
for more than 200 years?
793
00:41:21,688 --> 00:41:27,962
And if so, will we wish
we had left well enough alone?
794
00:41:27,986 --> 00:41:30,214
The implications
of understanding our universe,
795
00:41:30,238 --> 00:41:33,717
our reality so much more--
it's an opportunity.
796
00:41:33,741 --> 00:41:37,680
So Skinwalker Ranch
poses to us this opportunity
797
00:41:37,704 --> 00:41:42,959
to confront these things
that maybe even scare us.
798
00:41:44,460 --> 00:41:46,397
This phenomenon is real.
799
00:41:46,421 --> 00:41:49,024
It is happening,
whether we like it or not,
800
00:41:49,048 --> 00:41:51,568
and it could alter
the basic fabric
801
00:41:51,592 --> 00:41:54,279
of how we relate
to the external world.
802
00:41:54,303 --> 00:41:58,242
There is something profound that
is going on at Skinwalker Ranch
803
00:41:58,266 --> 00:42:00,953
and the surrounding area.
804
00:42:00,977 --> 00:42:03,229
And it begs to be studied.
