1
00:00:03,587 --> 00:00:06,047
- Hello?
- Travis.
2
00:00:06,048 --> 00:00:08,174
- Hey, Thomas.
- Hey, I'm not sure
3
00:00:08,175 --> 00:00:10,092
where you're at on the property,
4
00:00:10,093 --> 00:00:12,553
but, there's something
going on out here.
5
00:00:12,554 --> 00:00:14,681
Come over here and check it out.
6
00:00:34,701 --> 00:00:36,536
Hey, y'all.
I'd recommend not to touch it
7
00:00:36,537 --> 00:00:38,496
till we see
if it's radioactive or not.
8
00:00:38,497 --> 00:00:40,248
Too late.
9
00:00:40,249 --> 00:00:42,708
Tom and I rolled
it over just to see
10
00:00:42,709 --> 00:00:44,627
if we could see
any animal markings on it.
11
00:00:44,628 --> 00:00:47,505
- No sign of trauma...
- What in the world?
12
00:00:47,506 --> 00:00:50,550
There's no cat tracks,
there's no sign of struggle.
13
00:00:50,551 --> 00:00:52,219
- Middle of the day.
- It's just dead.
14
00:00:53,595 --> 00:00:56,222
It's hard to kill a cow.
15
00:00:56,223 --> 00:00:58,850
Check it with
the Geiger counter, Dragon.
16
00:01:01,395 --> 00:01:05,022
I saw her this
morning, but she was alive.
17
00:01:05,023 --> 00:01:07,275
That late morning?
18
00:01:13,282 --> 00:01:15,491
Lookit,
the meter's just going crazy, man.
19
00:01:15,492 --> 00:01:17,410
Jumping high,
then it jumps back to zero.
20
00:01:17,411 --> 00:01:20,997
13, 14, we're at 15-- 16.
21
00:01:20,998 --> 00:01:22,331
- Is it still doing...
- Lookit-- hey,
22
00:01:22,332 --> 00:01:24,166
it's at, it's at five-- it's 18.
23
00:01:24,167 --> 00:01:26,335
It just jumped to 18 just then.
24
00:01:26,336 --> 00:01:28,254
Jim, are you seeing anything
on the spectrum analyzer?
25
00:01:28,255 --> 00:01:29,463
Actually, I am.
26
00:01:29,464 --> 00:01:32,091
You are? What are you seeing?
27
00:01:32,092 --> 00:01:34,969
Something down
in the lower areas.
28
00:01:34,970 --> 00:01:37,346
So, I'm getting
some pretty high spikes.
29
00:01:37,347 --> 00:01:40,516
- Some of the stuff like you saw yesterday.
- See that?
30
00:01:40,517 --> 00:01:42,602
- What does this mean?
- Well, we don't know what it is,
31
00:01:42,603 --> 00:01:44,270
but we're seeing it
with multiple instruments.
32
00:01:44,271 --> 00:01:46,480
- So this is something...
- Something could be happening right now
33
00:01:46,481 --> 00:01:48,441
out of the ordinary.
34
00:01:48,442 --> 00:01:50,776
We need to get
out of here, guys.
35
00:01:50,777 --> 00:01:54,030
Is there really a
safe place on this ranch?
36
00:01:54,031 --> 00:01:55,781
We're quickly losing places
37
00:01:55,782 --> 00:01:58,618
that are safe to go
on this ranch.
38
00:02:07,502 --> 00:02:08,836
Gentlemen,
39
00:02:08,837 --> 00:02:10,588
I'd like to introduce
Travis Taylor.
40
00:02:10,589 --> 00:02:12,131
- I'll let Brandon know you're ready.
- Thank you.
41
00:02:12,132 --> 00:02:13,466
- You're welcome.
- Hey, Travis. Jim Morse. - Hey.
42
00:02:13,467 --> 00:02:15,718
I'm Dr. Travis Taylor.
43
00:02:15,719 --> 00:02:17,845
I'm a scientist and a physicist,
44
00:02:17,846 --> 00:02:21,057
and I've got 25 years
or more, experience
45
00:02:21,058 --> 00:02:24,185
in the aerospace and defense
industry working with NASA,
46
00:02:24,186 --> 00:02:26,604
the Department of Defense
and the intelligence community.
47
00:02:26,605 --> 00:02:28,814
- Travis?
- I have degrees in electrical engineering,
48
00:02:28,815 --> 00:02:30,441
aerospace engineering,
astronomy,
49
00:02:30,442 --> 00:02:32,026
physics, optical sciences.
50
00:02:32,027 --> 00:02:35,071
And I was invited
to come out here
51
00:02:35,072 --> 00:02:38,449
to work with this team
to investigate this area
52
00:02:38,450 --> 00:02:40,868
known as Skinwalker Ranch.
53
00:02:40,869 --> 00:02:43,371
- Where'd you fly in from?
- From Huntsville, Alabama.
54
00:02:43,372 --> 00:02:44,872
- All right.
- Yeah, it's where
55
00:02:44,873 --> 00:02:46,999
the rockets that went
to the Moon were built.
56
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,836
- Hi, Travis.
- Hey, Brandon. How you doing?
57
00:02:50,837 --> 00:02:52,672
- Brandon Fugal. I'm...
- Yeah, nice to meet you.
58
00:02:52,673 --> 00:02:54,548
...the new owner
of Skinwalker Ranch.
59
00:02:54,549 --> 00:02:56,676
I see you've been able
to get acquainted
60
00:02:56,677 --> 00:02:58,761
- with our team.
- Yeah.
61
00:02:58,762 --> 00:03:02,181
Erik Bard is our
principal investigator.
62
00:03:02,182 --> 00:03:04,934
Dr. Segala has been
the scientist.
63
00:03:04,935 --> 00:03:08,729
Tom Winterton,
our ranch superintendent.
64
00:03:08,730 --> 00:03:11,732
Jim Morse is our ranch manager
65
00:03:11,733 --> 00:03:13,859
and Bryant Arnold,
otherwise known as "Dragon,"
66
00:03:13,860 --> 00:03:15,736
head of security.
67
00:03:15,737 --> 00:03:17,697
Thank you for coming together.
68
00:03:17,698 --> 00:03:20,908
This is the most unique
science project of its kind
69
00:03:20,909 --> 00:03:23,703
because we've verified
and documented
70
00:03:23,704 --> 00:03:26,163
that some of the most
disturbing, unexplained events
71
00:03:26,164 --> 00:03:30,126
in the past decades,
if not hundreds of years,
72
00:03:30,127 --> 00:03:32,002
have occurred on this property.
73
00:03:32,003 --> 00:03:34,422
That sounds exciting
and a litt--
74
00:03:34,423 --> 00:03:37,216
- maybe even a little bit scary, right?
- Right.
75
00:03:37,217 --> 00:03:39,927
I'm Brandon
Fugal, chairman and owner
76
00:03:39,928 --> 00:03:43,055
of the largest commercial real
estate enterprise here in Utah.
77
00:03:43,056 --> 00:03:45,683
I'm also an investor
and cofounder
78
00:03:45,684 --> 00:03:48,727
of other enterprises
involving technology.
79
00:03:48,728 --> 00:03:50,729
I grew up middle class,
80
00:03:50,730 --> 00:03:53,941
with a very strong
religious upbringing.
81
00:03:53,942 --> 00:03:59,363
And that upbringing has only
helped strengthen my belief
82
00:03:59,364 --> 00:04:02,491
that there is more to our
existence than meets the eye.
83
00:04:02,492 --> 00:04:06,996
And I am still looking
for the nature of the universe
84
00:04:06,997 --> 00:04:09,748
and asking some
of these core questions:
85
00:04:09,749 --> 00:04:12,668
Where did we come from?
Why are we here?
86
00:04:12,669 --> 00:04:14,712
Where are we going?
87
00:04:14,713 --> 00:04:18,132
I truly believe that
Skinwalker Ranch is a place
88
00:04:18,133 --> 00:04:20,676
where some of the these
questions may be answered,
89
00:04:20,677 --> 00:04:23,930
or at least better understood.
90
00:04:25,682 --> 00:04:29,935
So this shows,
from an aerial view, the ranch.
91
00:04:29,936 --> 00:04:35,566
Our 512 acres lies in
the center of the Uinta Basin.
92
00:04:35,567 --> 00:04:37,359
The Uinta Basin.
93
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,612
I mean-- is that, like, one of
the Indian tribes or something?
94
00:04:39,613 --> 00:04:41,947
- The Uintah tribe?
- Yes. And it is named
95
00:04:41,948 --> 00:04:44,867
- after the Ute tribe.
- Okay.
96
00:04:44,868 --> 00:04:46,327
And the entire property
is surrounded
97
00:04:46,328 --> 00:04:48,788
by, Ute tribal properties.
98
00:04:48,789 --> 00:04:51,207
Well, so, one question
I have is why
99
00:04:51,208 --> 00:04:53,667
is it called Skinwalker Ranch?
100
00:04:53,668 --> 00:04:55,669
What is the-the lore
of it, right?
101
00:04:55,670 --> 00:04:57,713
Well, it's a phenomenon,
is what it is.
102
00:04:57,714 --> 00:05:00,007
- It goes back hundreds of years.
- Native Americans
103
00:05:00,008 --> 00:05:05,429
talk of shape-shifting demonic
entities called skinwalkers
104
00:05:05,430 --> 00:05:10,059
that take on the form of a, of
a large werewolf-like creature
105
00:05:10,060 --> 00:05:14,480
- and also a number of other shapes.
- Wow.
106
00:05:14,481 --> 00:05:17,650
The Native American
people, for generations, referred
107
00:05:17,651 --> 00:05:20,236
to this property as being
in the path of the skinwalker.
108
00:05:20,237 --> 00:05:22,238
And they called the mesa
109
00:05:22,239 --> 00:05:25,658
that runs the expanse of this
property Skinwalker Ridge.
110
00:05:25,659 --> 00:05:29,537
So that's really
the namesake of the property.
111
00:05:29,538 --> 00:05:31,122
I see, I see.
112
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:35,501
As early as 1911,
113
00:05:35,502 --> 00:05:40,339
newspaper reports profiled
strange noises in the basin
114
00:05:40,340 --> 00:05:46,053
and the homesteaders started
seeing unexplained phenomena.
115
00:05:46,054 --> 00:05:49,014
And by 1979,
116
00:05:49,015 --> 00:05:50,891
there were a lot
of UFO sightings
117
00:05:50,892 --> 00:05:53,853
in the basin being documented.
118
00:05:53,854 --> 00:05:57,231
People had
really acute medical episodes.
119
00:05:57,232 --> 00:05:59,358
Everything from
incidents of nausea,
120
00:05:59,359 --> 00:06:03,070
perception-altering experiences,
121
00:06:03,071 --> 00:06:04,864
vertigo, temporary paralysis.
122
00:06:04,865 --> 00:06:09,201
And then the Sherman family,
in 1992,
123
00:06:09,202 --> 00:06:11,620
acquired the property
and were witness
124
00:06:11,621 --> 00:06:14,957
to some of the most
disturbing events on record.
125
00:06:14,958 --> 00:06:17,376
Cattle mutilations.
126
00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:20,546
These were daylight
cattle mutilations.
127
00:06:20,547 --> 00:06:26,051
We're talking very surgically
precise dissections
128
00:06:26,052 --> 00:06:27,553
of these cattle.
129
00:06:27,554 --> 00:06:30,264
They were drained
of their blood.
130
00:06:30,265 --> 00:06:34,059
And there was no blood
to be found underneath them.
131
00:06:34,060 --> 00:06:39,440
As much as 25% of the herd
at that time were lost.
132
00:06:39,441 --> 00:06:40,483
Wow.
133
00:06:41,735 --> 00:06:44,069
In 1996,
134
00:06:44,070 --> 00:06:46,071
the reports
of the Sherman family
135
00:06:46,072 --> 00:06:50,326
led billionaire Robert Bigelow
to acquire the property
136
00:06:50,327 --> 00:06:54,830
and to commence an
unprecedented scientific study.
137
00:06:54,831 --> 00:06:58,250
Bigelow came in with his team,
138
00:06:58,251 --> 00:07:01,754
National Institute
of Discovery Science, or NIDS,
139
00:07:01,755 --> 00:07:03,297
that transitioned
140
00:07:03,298 --> 00:07:05,674
to Bigelow Aerospace
Advanced Space Studies,
141
00:07:05,675 --> 00:07:08,469
which was funded
by the U. S. government
142
00:07:08,470 --> 00:07:10,929
and kept highly confidential.
143
00:07:10,930 --> 00:07:12,598
It was a very aggressive effort.
144
00:07:12,599 --> 00:07:14,308
And as part of that,
145
00:07:14,309 --> 00:07:18,270
it was staffed at one time
by dozens of professionals.
146
00:07:18,271 --> 00:07:20,773
Many of those professionals
to this day
147
00:07:20,774 --> 00:07:24,943
refuse to ever set foot
on this ranch ever again
148
00:07:24,944 --> 00:07:26,945
for the rest of their lives.
149
00:07:26,946 --> 00:07:28,197
- Really?
- Literally.
150
00:07:28,198 --> 00:07:30,116
- That's right.
- Wow.
151
00:07:32,118 --> 00:07:34,787
That brings us to present day.
152
00:07:34,788 --> 00:07:38,248
In 2016,
I purchased Skinwalker Ranch
153
00:07:38,249 --> 00:07:41,085
and assembled our team
to carry this investigation
154
00:07:41,086 --> 00:07:43,337
forward into the next level.
155
00:07:43,338 --> 00:07:46,340
- And what is that?
- We've started deploying technology
156
00:07:46,341 --> 00:07:49,843
devised by Erik Bard,
our principal investigator,
157
00:07:49,844 --> 00:07:51,845
related to monitoring
158
00:07:51,846 --> 00:07:53,722
and recording the events
happening on the ranch.
159
00:07:53,723 --> 00:07:56,225
Right, that makes sense.
160
00:07:56,226 --> 00:07:58,352
One of the first things
that we captured:
161
00:07:58,353 --> 00:08:01,980
a 500-foot section
162
00:08:01,981 --> 00:08:06,318
of the mesa
became totally illuminated.
163
00:08:06,319 --> 00:08:08,362
That's-that's wild.
164
00:08:08,363 --> 00:08:12,241
We have seen several instances
of compact light pillars,
165
00:08:12,242 --> 00:08:15,994
these columns of light that
have appeared above the mesa.
166
00:08:15,995 --> 00:08:18,247
I'm looking at
this picture, and I believe
167
00:08:18,248 --> 00:08:21,875
I'm seeing scatter
off of the lower cloud cover,
168
00:08:21,876 --> 00:08:24,545
which implies
that it's going upward.
169
00:08:24,546 --> 00:08:27,005
And there's no used car lot
on the other side,
170
00:08:27,006 --> 00:08:28,507
where they're having a spotlight
171
00:08:28,508 --> 00:08:30,801
- shining up?
- Nope.
172
00:08:30,802 --> 00:08:32,594
- That's interesting.
- There is also
173
00:08:32,595 --> 00:08:33,929
a bright luminous object
174
00:08:33,930 --> 00:08:35,639
that came into view
in the western sky
175
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,891
and disappeared behind the mesa.
176
00:08:37,892 --> 00:08:39,601
And it travelled at a speed
177
00:08:39,602 --> 00:08:42,229
that was not consistent
with typical aircraft.
178
00:08:42,230 --> 00:08:44,148
Plus, at that time,
179
00:08:44,149 --> 00:08:46,150
there was no
historical flight data
180
00:08:46,151 --> 00:08:49,528
showing commercial
or private air traffic.
181
00:08:49,529 --> 00:08:50,904
That's intriguing.
182
00:08:50,905 --> 00:08:52,698
Indeed.
183
00:08:52,699 --> 00:08:55,701
I- I really am curious
as to why exactly am I here?
184
00:08:55,702 --> 00:08:57,661
What is it I'm supposed
to be figuring out?
185
00:08:57,662 --> 00:09:00,664
Right. I think, you,
as an experimentalist,
186
00:09:00,665 --> 00:09:02,624
you would bring
to the table a lot more
187
00:09:02,625 --> 00:09:05,335
stringent protocols
than what's here now.
188
00:09:05,336 --> 00:09:08,464
- Okay.
- We want your perspective.
189
00:09:08,465 --> 00:09:10,049
We've noticed that
when we bring new people
190
00:09:10,050 --> 00:09:11,717
onto the ranch,
191
00:09:11,718 --> 00:09:14,136
the ranch behaves differently
than it normally does.
192
00:09:14,137 --> 00:09:16,847
It's just a place, right?
I mean, and...
193
00:09:16,848 --> 00:09:19,558
And you guys think
that it's going
194
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,062
to behave
when I show up there, right?
195
00:09:23,063 --> 00:09:25,355
Where there's smoke,
there's fire, and there's things
196
00:09:25,356 --> 00:09:28,776
that go on that ranch that
I cannot get my head around.
197
00:09:28,777 --> 00:09:30,778
That ranch can push back.
198
00:09:30,779 --> 00:09:32,321
We'd like to fly you out
199
00:09:32,322 --> 00:09:34,156
to the property tomorrow.
200
00:09:34,157 --> 00:09:36,075
My brother will be
escorting you,
201
00:09:36,076 --> 00:09:38,410
so you can see
the ranch firsthand.
202
00:09:38,411 --> 00:09:39,953
I'm not sure
what we're gonna find,
203
00:09:39,954 --> 00:09:41,747
but I can't wait to see
what we're gonna find.
204
00:09:41,748 --> 00:09:42,831
Great.
205
00:09:46,586 --> 00:09:48,712
So, Travis,
206
00:09:48,713 --> 00:09:51,381
tell me honestly,
do-do you think I'm crazy?
207
00:09:51,382 --> 00:09:53,675
Well,
208
00:09:53,676 --> 00:09:55,302
I think some of the stories
are crazy,
209
00:09:55,303 --> 00:09:58,097
but just because the stories
sound crazy
210
00:09:58,098 --> 00:10:00,682
doesn't mean that there's not
something to it.
211
00:10:00,683 --> 00:10:02,559
So, no, I don't think
you're crazy, Brandon.
212
00:10:02,560 --> 00:10:05,104
I think it's intriguing,
is what I can say.
213
00:10:05,105 --> 00:10:06,438
There has to be
something more to it.
214
00:10:06,439 --> 00:10:09,109
Yep. Are we truly alone
in the universe?
215
00:10:21,454 --> 00:10:22,955
Welcome to Aero Dynamic.
216
00:10:22,956 --> 00:10:24,873
- So this is the hangar?
- Yep.
217
00:10:24,874 --> 00:10:26,875
- Hey, Brandon.
- These are my brothers.
218
00:10:26,876 --> 00:10:28,544
- How are you?
- This is my brother Cameron.
219
00:10:28,545 --> 00:10:30,129
- Travis Taylor. Yeah.
- Good to meet you, Travis.
220
00:10:30,130 --> 00:10:31,713
- My brother Matt.
- Nice to meet you too, man.
221
00:10:31,714 --> 00:10:33,465
Nice to meet you.
222
00:10:33,466 --> 00:10:34,675
So we're going to be
in this helicopter today?
223
00:10:34,676 --> 00:10:36,135
Yep, this is the Airbus H130.
224
00:10:36,136 --> 00:10:37,970
- H130, Okay.
- We'll be flying
225
00:10:37,971 --> 00:10:40,389
- at 10,000 feet.
- Aw, that sounds awesome.
226
00:10:40,390 --> 00:10:43,935
Safe flight, and good luck
at Skinwalker Ranch.
227
00:10:48,982 --> 00:10:50,817
Go with engine startup.
228
00:10:55,155 --> 00:10:56,989
All systems are check.
229
00:10:56,990 --> 00:10:58,449
We'll proceed on our way.
230
00:11:01,828 --> 00:11:03,704
You probably want to get
down there
231
00:11:03,705 --> 00:11:06,039
- and get boots on the ground, don't you?
- Yep, I do. Absolutely.
232
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:07,457
I want to get down
and start walking.
233
00:11:07,458 --> 00:11:08,668
I want to cover every inch
of the place.
234
00:11:11,254 --> 00:11:12,671
What do you think about
the ranch?
235
00:11:12,672 --> 00:11:15,132
- Those are some strange stories.
- Yeah.
236
00:11:15,133 --> 00:11:16,341
What do you think
about all that?
237
00:11:16,342 --> 00:11:17,676
Well, it's interesting.
238
00:11:17,677 --> 00:11:19,511
I originally went from believing
239
00:11:19,512 --> 00:11:21,221
that it was just kind of
all foo-foo
240
00:11:21,222 --> 00:11:24,600
to thinking there might be
something, to this, based on
241
00:11:24,601 --> 00:11:26,310
what I've
experienced personally.
242
00:11:26,311 --> 00:11:28,729
Stuff has happened.
There's times where I've felt
243
00:11:28,730 --> 00:11:30,397
I don't really want to be there.
244
00:11:30,398 --> 00:11:32,524
Not knowing what's, what's
causing some of the anomalies
245
00:11:32,525 --> 00:11:34,109
that are out there.
246
00:11:34,110 --> 00:11:36,737
My main concern is just
to make sure that we're safe
247
00:11:36,738 --> 00:11:38,405
going in and out
of the property.
248
00:11:38,406 --> 00:11:41,116
- I agree with that.
- Especially in aviation,
249
00:11:41,117 --> 00:11:43,493
you do the best you can
250
00:11:43,494 --> 00:11:46,038
- to minimize any danger or risks.
- Yeah.
251
00:11:46,039 --> 00:11:47,623
You do your preflight checks,
252
00:11:47,624 --> 00:11:49,208
you make sure the maintenance
is right;
253
00:11:49,209 --> 00:11:51,210
but even then,
there's still some things
254
00:11:51,211 --> 00:11:52,961
that you don't
have control over.
255
00:11:52,962 --> 00:11:55,255
And so for every flight I go on,
256
00:11:55,256 --> 00:11:57,841
I always say a little prayer,
just try to keep it simple.
257
00:11:57,842 --> 00:12:00,969
- Okay. - And so I'd love to do
that if you are open to that.
258
00:12:00,970 --> 00:12:02,554
- Absolutely, sure.
- All right.
259
00:12:02,555 --> 00:12:04,556
Heavenly Father, we're grateful
260
00:12:04,557 --> 00:12:06,767
for this opportunity
to fly today,
261
00:12:06,768 --> 00:12:10,145
and to do some exploring
and-and research,
262
00:12:10,146 --> 00:12:11,563
and explore the sciences.
263
00:12:11,564 --> 00:12:12,940
We ask for safety today.
264
00:12:12,941 --> 00:12:15,317
Protect us as we come
into this ranch.
265
00:12:15,318 --> 00:12:18,904
And we say these things in
the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
266
00:12:18,905 --> 00:12:20,365
Amen.
267
00:12:26,079 --> 00:12:28,623
We're approaching the ranch.
268
00:12:30,416 --> 00:12:33,085
We're going to go low level
down over the entrance
269
00:12:33,086 --> 00:12:35,837
to show you the guard shack.
270
00:12:35,838 --> 00:12:38,298
All systems are check,
we're descending
271
00:12:38,299 --> 00:12:40,635
down onto the property now.
272
00:12:42,262 --> 00:12:45,305
Below you'll see the gate,
the concrete barriers,
273
00:12:45,306 --> 00:12:47,349
- and the signage.
- Right. Yeah, I see that.
274
00:12:47,350 --> 00:12:50,269
And then the guard shack.
275
00:12:50,270 --> 00:12:52,604
As Cameron flew
me into Skinwalker Ranch,
276
00:12:52,605 --> 00:12:53,772
my first impression is
277
00:12:53,773 --> 00:12:54,940
it's in the middle of nowhere.
278
00:12:54,941 --> 00:12:58,819
It's not anything unusual
to look at
279
00:12:58,820 --> 00:13:00,654
from any of the other land
around it;
280
00:13:00,655 --> 00:13:03,115
it's the things that are
supposedly happening here
281
00:13:03,116 --> 00:13:04,867
that makes it unusual.
282
00:13:06,619 --> 00:13:08,287
Now, where is it
where the mountain
283
00:13:08,288 --> 00:13:10,497
is glowing in the video
284
00:13:10,498 --> 00:13:12,374
- that they showed me?
- So I'll show you the ridge.
285
00:13:12,375 --> 00:13:14,126
Skinwalker Ridge.
286
00:13:14,127 --> 00:13:16,712
It's over in this area
that I don't typically fly over
287
00:13:16,713 --> 00:13:19,464
based on reports they had of
light originating in the area.
288
00:13:19,465 --> 00:13:21,258
So we'll kind of
skirt around this.
289
00:13:21,259 --> 00:13:25,305
So, right there at your
one o'clock, the mesa plateau.
290
00:13:27,307 --> 00:13:29,766
- And it's this,
this ridge here that's glowing? - Yeah.
291
00:13:29,767 --> 00:13:31,435
Yep.
292
00:13:31,436 --> 00:13:33,145
It's where they
detected it on the cameras.
293
00:13:33,146 --> 00:13:35,647
- Wow.
- The scientists have cautioned me to--
294
00:13:35,648 --> 00:13:37,149
to be careful here,
295
00:13:37,150 --> 00:13:39,443
due to the potential
for any energy
296
00:13:39,444 --> 00:13:41,653
or any other disruption of
the helicopter. I stay away.
297
00:13:41,654 --> 00:13:44,156
I just, I felt uneasy
flying over that
298
00:13:44,157 --> 00:13:45,323
with what I saw in the video.
299
00:13:45,324 --> 00:13:46,783
- Really?
- Just to make sure.
300
00:13:46,784 --> 00:13:48,493
Well, you know,
301
00:13:48,494 --> 00:13:50,120
if it's some kind of
electromagnetic phenomena,
302
00:13:50,121 --> 00:13:51,997
- it could affect the avionics, right?
- Yeah. Yeah.
303
00:13:51,998 --> 00:13:53,707
Make it unsafe.
So, I can understand that.
304
00:13:53,708 --> 00:13:55,668
- My primary goal is safety.
- Yeah.
305
00:13:57,628 --> 00:13:59,838
So there's Homestead 1 here.
306
00:13:59,839 --> 00:14:02,842
This is the primary homestead
down below in the trees.
307
00:14:05,136 --> 00:14:07,180
Then along the ridge,
there's Homestead 2...
308
00:14:09,557 --> 00:14:12,934
...and then, Homestead 3
will be down
309
00:14:12,935 --> 00:14:16,188
- on the western side of
the property there. - Okay.
310
00:14:16,189 --> 00:14:18,857
A lot of the activity,
for whatever reason,
311
00:14:18,858 --> 00:14:21,318
seems to be centered around
the old homesteads.
312
00:14:21,319 --> 00:14:24,863
These over-100-year-old
structures.
313
00:14:24,864 --> 00:14:28,450
And that activity is not only
UFO-related,
314
00:14:28,451 --> 00:14:32,329
it involves the full gamut
of unexplained phenomena
315
00:14:32,330 --> 00:14:34,165
that we continue to monitor.
316
00:14:35,541 --> 00:14:37,460
Really intriguing.
317
00:14:39,045 --> 00:14:40,879
I hope not to leave here
more perplexed
318
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,422
than when I came in, right?
319
00:14:42,423 --> 00:14:44,258
That's right.
320
00:14:46,219 --> 00:14:48,345
One of the things
that excites me the most
321
00:14:48,346 --> 00:14:51,056
about this ranch, and,
the investigation team,
322
00:14:51,057 --> 00:14:55,227
and doing this, research,
is... what if?
323
00:14:55,228 --> 00:14:56,436
That's the big thing.
324
00:14:56,437 --> 00:14:58,355
What if some of it's real?
325
00:14:58,356 --> 00:14:59,981
What if this really is an answer
326
00:14:59,982 --> 00:15:03,235
to one of the big questions
that Brandon had?
327
00:15:03,236 --> 00:15:05,655
Maybe we'll get some insight.
328
00:15:07,156 --> 00:15:09,366
- Hey, guys.
- Hey, Travis.
329
00:15:09,367 --> 00:15:12,410
- You made it.
- Yeah. It was a great flight coming in.
330
00:15:12,411 --> 00:15:13,787
- It was beautiful.
- Good to see you. Welcome.
331
00:15:13,788 --> 00:15:14,913
- How you doing?
- Nice to have you.
332
00:15:14,914 --> 00:15:15,873
Yeah, it's good to see you guys.
333
00:15:15,874 --> 00:15:17,040
Welcome to Skinwalker.
334
00:15:17,041 --> 00:15:18,416
Yeah, thanks, man.
Glad to be here.
335
00:15:18,417 --> 00:15:19,417
- What's going on, Dragon?
- Hey, Trav.
336
00:15:19,418 --> 00:15:21,253
How you doing, buddy?
337
00:15:21,254 --> 00:15:23,004
- Let me introduce you to Kaleb here.
- Hey, Kaleb. How you doing?
338
00:15:23,005 --> 00:15:25,423
This is my right-hand man.
339
00:15:25,424 --> 00:15:26,925
We'll be taking good care of you
while you're here.
340
00:15:26,926 --> 00:15:29,386
My name is Bryant Arnold.
341
00:15:29,387 --> 00:15:32,430
And my main role is the head
of security here.
342
00:15:32,431 --> 00:15:35,600
The reason that we take
security so seriously is
343
00:15:35,601 --> 00:15:37,853
we need to protect the
scientific integrity of things
344
00:15:37,854 --> 00:15:41,398
going on, and protect
the people that live here.
345
00:15:41,399 --> 00:15:44,109
Skinwalker Ranch piques
people's interest,
346
00:15:44,110 --> 00:15:45,777
and so with that we get
a lot of people
347
00:15:45,778 --> 00:15:48,363
that try to sneak
onto the property.
348
00:15:48,364 --> 00:15:50,949
We carry weapons because
349
00:15:50,950 --> 00:15:52,784
we don't know
what we're dealing with,
350
00:15:52,785 --> 00:15:54,286
and it's a dangerous place,
351
00:15:54,287 --> 00:15:56,830
between the natural things
that are here
352
00:15:56,831 --> 00:15:59,249
and then also the unknown.
353
00:15:59,250 --> 00:16:00,667
Well, it's nice to meet you.
354
00:16:00,668 --> 00:16:01,960
- I got to get back to it, so...
- All right,
355
00:16:01,961 --> 00:16:03,128
- thank you, man.
- Yep. Have a good one.
356
00:16:03,129 --> 00:16:05,088
I'm excited to be here, man.
357
00:16:05,089 --> 00:16:06,882
I can't wait to start
looking around.
358
00:16:06,883 --> 00:16:08,925
Well, let's show you
the command center,
359
00:16:08,926 --> 00:16:11,678
real quick, and, start the tour.
360
00:16:11,679 --> 00:16:13,638
Let's do it.
361
00:16:13,639 --> 00:16:16,474
So this is the command center.
362
00:16:16,475 --> 00:16:17,934
This is the command center.
363
00:16:17,935 --> 00:16:19,477
A few things that
we've collected
364
00:16:19,478 --> 00:16:22,480
over the last couple years
as we've been here.
365
00:16:22,481 --> 00:16:24,901
Cool.
I like all the pictures.
366
00:16:27,278 --> 00:16:28,987
Erik, you ought to show him
the control room.
367
00:16:28,988 --> 00:16:30,822
Sure. Travis, come take a look.
368
00:16:30,823 --> 00:16:33,325
Is this where all
the instruments are piped into?
369
00:16:33,326 --> 00:16:35,536
- That it is.
- The nerve center.
370
00:16:37,079 --> 00:16:39,248
This is our inner sanctum.
371
00:16:41,167 --> 00:16:43,835
Inner sanctum, I love that.
372
00:16:43,836 --> 00:16:45,670
So it's a work in progress,
but you can see...
373
00:16:45,671 --> 00:16:47,005
- Yeah...
- Surveillance assets;
374
00:16:47,006 --> 00:16:49,341
see the systems that we've got
online right now.
375
00:16:49,342 --> 00:16:50,967
My name is Erik Bard.
376
00:16:50,968 --> 00:16:52,886
I've been acting
as principal investigator
377
00:16:52,887 --> 00:16:55,847
at the Skinwalker Ranch site
since 2016.
378
00:16:55,848 --> 00:16:59,309
Brandon has entrusted me
with the first phase
379
00:16:59,310 --> 00:17:02,646
of the investigation
under his watch.
380
00:17:02,647 --> 00:17:05,690
That phase is a phase of...
381
00:17:05,691 --> 00:17:07,317
observational science.
382
00:17:07,318 --> 00:17:10,320
We're observing the property,
383
00:17:10,321 --> 00:17:12,530
primarily looking for phenomena,
384
00:17:12,531 --> 00:17:17,535
and real evidence that
there's something here on site.
385
00:17:17,536 --> 00:17:20,163
The idea of building
a control room
386
00:17:20,164 --> 00:17:23,833
was born out of necessity,
so that I can observe
387
00:17:23,834 --> 00:17:25,543
what's happening at all hours.
388
00:17:25,544 --> 00:17:28,880
We have surveillance assets
allowing us to see
389
00:17:28,881 --> 00:17:31,425
in various directions
across the property.
390
00:17:33,219 --> 00:17:36,221
We have thermographic
imaging cameras,
391
00:17:36,222 --> 00:17:39,391
night-vision equipment.
392
00:17:39,392 --> 00:17:41,226
And so we've got
the weather data.
393
00:17:41,227 --> 00:17:43,895
Always important.
Temperature, humidity.
394
00:17:43,896 --> 00:17:45,897
- The daily rain...
- Right.
395
00:17:45,898 --> 00:17:47,607
- And what have we got here?
- You're looking at the output
396
00:17:47,608 --> 00:17:50,402
from the SATAN platform,
which is actually right there.
397
00:17:50,403 --> 00:17:53,113
Okay. We also
have a platform that I designed,
398
00:17:53,114 --> 00:17:55,365
to which I've given the name
SATAN; it's an acronym
399
00:17:55,366 --> 00:17:59,495
for Sentinel Assignment,
Telemetry and Notification.
400
00:18:01,247 --> 00:18:03,039
It's a device
that allows us to measure
401
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,709
vibrations in the ground
and to record sounds
402
00:18:05,710 --> 00:18:09,088
that are below the frequency
range of human hearing.
403
00:18:10,590 --> 00:18:12,632
The device
is constantly measuring,
404
00:18:12,633 --> 00:18:14,843
and whenever we get
a signal of interest,
405
00:18:14,844 --> 00:18:17,095
- it lets me know about it.
- Okay.
406
00:18:17,096 --> 00:18:20,807
- This is the transponders for
the airplanes? - Right, so this
407
00:18:20,808 --> 00:18:22,934
is air traffic over the ranch
right now.
408
00:18:22,935 --> 00:18:26,605
We also have
an avionics receiver
409
00:18:26,606 --> 00:18:29,441
that receives the signals
being emitted by aircraft
410
00:18:29,442 --> 00:18:32,611
identifying them
by their tail numbers.
411
00:18:32,612 --> 00:18:35,447
The purpose of
the avionics receiver
412
00:18:35,448 --> 00:18:37,490
is to help us discern between
413
00:18:37,491 --> 00:18:40,285
things of known origin--
aircraft--
414
00:18:40,286 --> 00:18:43,496
and bright light sources
415
00:18:43,497 --> 00:18:46,333
that have
no identifying information.
416
00:18:46,334 --> 00:18:50,211
And we've seen things that are
actually quite unexpected
417
00:18:50,212 --> 00:18:52,088
and confusing.
418
00:18:52,089 --> 00:18:53,757
But I'm not here to believe,
419
00:18:53,758 --> 00:18:56,468
I am not here to disbelieve,
I'm here to observe.
420
00:18:56,469 --> 00:18:59,220
Well, what'd you think?
421
00:18:59,221 --> 00:19:01,848
It's the inner sanctum.
That was awesome, man.
422
00:19:01,849 --> 00:19:04,934
We got a lot to see.
I think we ought to get you out
423
00:19:04,935 --> 00:19:06,269
- and get going.
- Yeah, I'd love to.
424
00:19:06,270 --> 00:19:08,064
Okay. Let's go get started.
425
00:19:09,482 --> 00:19:11,149
So, are we driving or walking?
426
00:19:11,150 --> 00:19:12,484
It's more than a walk,
427
00:19:12,485 --> 00:19:14,235
so why don't we take the UTV?
428
00:19:14,236 --> 00:19:15,570
I got shotgun!
429
00:19:15,571 --> 00:19:17,531
This is great.
430
00:19:19,617 --> 00:19:21,660
All right, you're about
to see some really cool stuff.
431
00:19:21,661 --> 00:19:23,454
- Yeah?
- We're gonna go see the mesa.
432
00:19:29,418 --> 00:19:31,086
You know, on our way
over to the mesa,
433
00:19:31,087 --> 00:19:33,380
there's something I want
to show you real quick.
434
00:19:33,381 --> 00:19:36,424
- You want to see it for just a second?
- Yeah! Heck, yeah.
435
00:19:36,425 --> 00:19:39,260
My hope for being out here
at Skinwalker Ranch
436
00:19:39,261 --> 00:19:40,470
is to get some answers.
437
00:19:40,471 --> 00:19:43,056
There's so many stories
about, you know,
438
00:19:43,057 --> 00:19:46,059
boogeymen and aliens
and whatever else.
439
00:19:46,060 --> 00:19:47,727
If there is something
happening out here
440
00:19:47,728 --> 00:19:49,689
that's unusual,
I want to find out.
441
00:19:55,152 --> 00:19:57,654
So, Travis, a lot of
interesting things.
442
00:19:57,655 --> 00:19:59,948
So this used to be
a very operational ranch,
443
00:19:59,949 --> 00:20:02,784
where they had the cattle,
they would process right here.
444
00:20:02,785 --> 00:20:06,162
They had calves in this area.
They had bulls in this area.
445
00:20:06,163 --> 00:20:08,832
You mean when the-the Shermans
owned the place...
446
00:20:08,833 --> 00:20:10,376
When the Shermans occupied
the, the ranch here.
447
00:20:13,129 --> 00:20:14,796
Everything
that I have researched
448
00:20:14,797 --> 00:20:17,298
relative to the Sherman family
leads me to believe
449
00:20:17,299 --> 00:20:21,511
that they were subjected to
such an intense amount
450
00:20:21,512 --> 00:20:24,848
of disturbing activity.
451
00:20:24,849 --> 00:20:28,685
They experienced everything
from UFO sightings
452
00:20:28,686 --> 00:20:32,188
to countless cattle mutilations.
453
00:20:32,189 --> 00:20:35,400
They had beasts or entities
454
00:20:35,401 --> 00:20:37,652
that would appear to them.
455
00:20:37,653 --> 00:20:40,029
I don't blame them
for selling the property.
456
00:20:40,030 --> 00:20:42,116
They were terrorized.
457
00:20:43,284 --> 00:20:46,411
There's a story where
458
00:20:46,412 --> 00:20:47,412
a very large wolf
459
00:20:47,413 --> 00:20:49,247
came in off the plains.
460
00:20:49,248 --> 00:20:54,169
And a group of calves
were in this pen right here.
461
00:20:54,170 --> 00:20:57,464
The wolf put his head through,
462
00:20:57,465 --> 00:21:00,467
and started pulling one
of the calves out of the fence.
463
00:21:00,468 --> 00:21:04,137
The Shermans, seeing that,
the father then went inside,
464
00:21:04,138 --> 00:21:07,307
got a weapon, and came out
and started shooting at it.
465
00:21:07,308 --> 00:21:09,559
Point blank, you know,
right here.
466
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,562
Shooting at the wolf.
467
00:21:12,563 --> 00:21:14,647
Right, like a .357,
468
00:21:14,648 --> 00:21:17,066
and then that
didn't do anything,
469
00:21:17,067 --> 00:21:18,735
so apparently,
it let them go back in
470
00:21:18,736 --> 00:21:20,570
and a bigger gun, and I guess
471
00:21:20,571 --> 00:21:23,406
that's what it took to let it--
to make it drop the calf.
472
00:21:23,407 --> 00:21:26,743
And the story goes
that this animal
473
00:21:26,744 --> 00:21:30,747
was strong enough
to withstand, allegedly,
474
00:21:30,748 --> 00:21:33,082
six shots from a .357
475
00:21:33,083 --> 00:21:35,461
and a couple shots
from a .30-06 rifle.
476
00:21:38,964 --> 00:21:41,132
So they pursued after it,
477
00:21:41,133 --> 00:21:43,968
and as they got
to the part of the ranch
478
00:21:43,969 --> 00:21:46,679
where the river
bisects the property,
479
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,682
they could see tracks
going down the mud
480
00:21:49,683 --> 00:21:52,435
and starting up the side
of the bank on the other side
481
00:21:52,436 --> 00:21:54,229
and then disappearing
into nothing,
482
00:21:54,230 --> 00:21:56,481
as if the thing
had just vaporized.
483
00:21:56,482 --> 00:22:01,319
And so, there are rumors
and stories that have come out
484
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,323
about all sorts of really
fantastic happenings here.
485
00:22:05,324 --> 00:22:06,783
I- I know,
486
00:22:06,784 --> 00:22:08,409
the stories of the skinwalker,
487
00:22:08,410 --> 00:22:09,786
the shape-shifter thing,
isn't one of the things
488
00:22:09,787 --> 00:22:12,121
that it's supposed to turn into
is like a big wolf?
489
00:22:12,122 --> 00:22:14,833
- That's correct.
- That's strange, right?
490
00:22:14,834 --> 00:22:17,335
So to the mesa?
491
00:22:17,336 --> 00:22:19,379
- Yeah, let's head over to the mesa.
- All right.
492
00:22:19,380 --> 00:22:21,381
I'm not entirely convinced
493
00:22:21,382 --> 00:22:23,299
that this stuff
can't be explained.
494
00:22:23,300 --> 00:22:26,636
So I'm really eager
to see for myself
495
00:22:26,637 --> 00:22:28,471
what's happening on this ranch.
496
00:22:28,472 --> 00:22:30,223
Okay, ready?
497
00:22:30,224 --> 00:22:31,684
Yup.
498
00:22:34,979 --> 00:22:36,813
So this is it?
Skinwalker Ridge.
499
00:22:36,814 --> 00:22:38,648
- Yeah.
- That's right.
500
00:22:38,649 --> 00:22:40,108
They call it
the Skinwalker Ridge.
501
00:22:40,109 --> 00:22:41,776
Has any of you ever seen it?
502
00:22:41,777 --> 00:22:44,863
The skinwalker shape-shifter
thing walking the ridge?
503
00:22:44,864 --> 00:22:46,614
Well, I haven't.
504
00:22:46,615 --> 00:22:48,908
Have y'all talked to anybody
that claims to have seen it?
505
00:22:48,909 --> 00:22:50,451
Jim Morse has seen it.
506
00:22:50,452 --> 00:22:52,662
That's right.
507
00:22:52,663 --> 00:22:57,000
When they talk about
the curse of the skinwalker,
508
00:22:57,001 --> 00:23:00,503
um, back in the mid-1800s, 1860,
509
00:23:00,504 --> 00:23:04,550
the Utes and the Navajo, um,
they crossed each other.
510
00:23:06,385 --> 00:23:09,178
Unfortunately,
the Utes were utilizing
511
00:23:09,179 --> 00:23:11,097
the Navajos as slaves.
512
00:23:11,098 --> 00:23:13,933
So the Utes and the Navajo
513
00:23:13,934 --> 00:23:16,644
got into a skirmish,
514
00:23:16,645 --> 00:23:19,105
and because of that
515
00:23:19,106 --> 00:23:21,858
the Navajos cursed this land,
516
00:23:21,859 --> 00:23:25,111
which now is the,
path of the skinwalker,
517
00:23:25,112 --> 00:23:28,323
this shape-shifting spirit.
518
00:23:28,324 --> 00:23:31,534
I didn't want to believe
this phenomenon is real,
519
00:23:31,535 --> 00:23:33,703
but then there was one evening
520
00:23:33,704 --> 00:23:36,080
that we were combing the ground,
521
00:23:36,081 --> 00:23:37,957
and one of the guards
that I was with
522
00:23:37,958 --> 00:23:40,460
carries, like, an infrared lamp,
523
00:23:40,461 --> 00:23:44,714
and as he was combing the rocs
524
00:23:44,715 --> 00:23:49,302
he pointed out two big red eyes.
525
00:23:49,303 --> 00:23:51,888
It looked at me,
and then it left.
526
00:23:51,889 --> 00:23:54,223
Call me what you will,
527
00:23:54,224 --> 00:23:56,100
but I, personally,
am not comfortable out here--
528
00:23:56,101 --> 00:23:58,603
even with my security background
529
00:23:58,604 --> 00:24:01,147
as a military police officer--
to be out here alone,
530
00:24:01,148 --> 00:24:03,651
in-in the,
in the dark of the night.
531
00:24:06,612 --> 00:24:08,071
Let's stop right here.
532
00:24:08,072 --> 00:24:09,739
This is probably
the easiest place
533
00:24:09,740 --> 00:24:12,909
to access the top of the ridg.
534
00:24:12,910 --> 00:24:14,954
Climb the rest of the way.
535
00:24:18,916 --> 00:24:22,126
So is this where
the glow was from the video?
536
00:24:22,127 --> 00:24:23,836
That's right,
there's about a 500 to 600
537
00:24:23,837 --> 00:24:25,880
foot long section of this mesa
538
00:24:25,881 --> 00:24:30,551
that appears to pulsate
in some of our night footage.
539
00:24:30,552 --> 00:24:35,098
I'm gonna check my compass
and see if it's acting crazy.
540
00:24:35,099 --> 00:24:37,934
That's... that's west, right?
541
00:24:37,935 --> 00:24:40,520
So it seems like
it's doing fine.
542
00:24:40,521 --> 00:24:42,814
You ought to check your TriField
meter, see what it's doing.
543
00:24:42,815 --> 00:24:45,108
I'm getting a little tone
from it.
544
00:24:45,109 --> 00:24:46,985
- A little tone?
- Whoa.
545
00:24:46,986 --> 00:24:48,861
- Let me see that thing.
- Sure.
546
00:24:48,862 --> 00:24:51,406
Out on the mesa,
547
00:24:51,407 --> 00:24:53,157
we're using these electric
field measurement devices
548
00:24:53,158 --> 00:24:55,118
called TriField meters.
549
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,495
- Get out of the way,
make sure it ain't your radio. - Okay.
550
00:24:57,496 --> 00:25:00,790
And they measure
three fields: magnetic field,
551
00:25:00,791 --> 00:25:04,377
static electric field,
then it measures radio frequency
552
00:25:04,378 --> 00:25:07,839
and microwaves, which is
electromagnetic dynamic fields.
553
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,299
Whoa, whoa, it's gone up.
554
00:25:10,300 --> 00:25:12,135
Hold on, let me step back.
555
00:25:12,136 --> 00:25:15,847
There are always radio waves
556
00:25:15,848 --> 00:25:17,098
and microwaves
bouncing around everywhere.
557
00:25:17,099 --> 00:25:18,641
We use that for Wi-Fi,
558
00:25:18,642 --> 00:25:20,435
for your cell phone
communications, everything.
559
00:25:20,436 --> 00:25:22,603
The biggest thing
that piqued my interest
560
00:25:22,604 --> 00:25:24,939
was the amount of energy
in these microwaves
561
00:25:24,940 --> 00:25:27,442
we were measuring was getting
close to dangerous levels.
562
00:25:27,443 --> 00:25:28,609
That's significant.
563
00:25:28,610 --> 00:25:29,819
And the direction
564
00:25:29,820 --> 00:25:30,945
continued to change.
565
00:25:30,946 --> 00:25:33,823
It's coming from that direction.
566
00:25:33,824 --> 00:25:37,201
What is doing that?
567
00:25:37,202 --> 00:25:38,662
Look at that.
568
00:25:39,913 --> 00:25:41,247
Sounds like it might be getting
569
00:25:41,248 --> 00:25:42,790
louder as we get higher.
570
00:25:42,791 --> 00:25:45,210
Let's go up the mountain
and see what happens.
571
00:25:47,671 --> 00:25:50,882
Skinwalker Ranch is in
the middle of nowhere,
572
00:25:50,883 --> 00:25:53,843
and I couldn't see a cell phone
tower as far as I could see.
573
00:25:53,844 --> 00:25:55,970
I barely was getting a signal
on my phone,
574
00:25:55,971 --> 00:26:00,141
and there were no Wi-Fi routers.
575
00:26:00,142 --> 00:26:01,934
- Whoo. Man, that was a nice walk.
- Man. That's a climb.
576
00:26:01,935 --> 00:26:05,063
Hey, hand me that meter.
577
00:26:05,064 --> 00:26:07,523
What's yours saying, Erik?
578
00:26:07,524 --> 00:26:10,276
- So we're at four and a half.
- Which way?
579
00:26:10,277 --> 00:26:11,611
This way.
580
00:26:11,612 --> 00:26:13,446
Yeah, this one's pegging out.
581
00:26:13,447 --> 00:26:15,698
Along-- It's kind of a-along
the ridge line.
582
00:26:15,699 --> 00:26:19,285
Yeah, I mean,
it's-it's a real strong signal.
583
00:26:19,286 --> 00:26:21,454
What's it saying?
584
00:26:21,455 --> 00:26:24,041
Dude, it's-it's in the
milliwatts per meter squared.
585
00:26:25,876 --> 00:26:27,126
And, I mean,
that's a significant
586
00:26:27,127 --> 00:26:28,920
amount of energy right there.
587
00:26:28,921 --> 00:26:31,964
We went to the top of the mesa,
and what we found
588
00:26:31,965 --> 00:26:35,176
was even more
electromagnetic radiation
589
00:26:35,177 --> 00:26:36,427
that shouldn't be there.
590
00:26:36,428 --> 00:26:37,887
That's a real strong signal.
591
00:26:37,888 --> 00:26:39,639
And at dangerous levels
592
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,224
that could be harmful to humans.
593
00:26:42,893 --> 00:26:44,185
And it's shifted now.
594
00:26:44,186 --> 00:26:45,812
Now it's coming
from that direction.
595
00:26:45,813 --> 00:26:48,439
- And it's all radiation.
- Yeah, yeah, it's all RF.
596
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:49,941
Wow.
597
00:26:49,942 --> 00:26:52,276
The level of microwaves there
598
00:26:52,277 --> 00:26:56,072
that we detected
were much stronger than
599
00:26:56,073 --> 00:26:58,116
what you get
from your cell phone
600
00:26:58,117 --> 00:26:59,951
or your Wi-Fi routers,
601
00:26:59,952 --> 00:27:03,955
and microwaves like that
just don't exist in nature.
602
00:27:03,956 --> 00:27:08,126
So where was this microwave
radiation coming from?
603
00:27:08,127 --> 00:27:09,460
Because I'd never seen that.
604
00:27:09,461 --> 00:27:12,088
I don't know.
We've-we've been here, what,
605
00:27:12,089 --> 00:27:14,298
an hour and already
found something
606
00:27:14,299 --> 00:27:16,134
that I don't have any idea
what's going on.
607
00:27:16,135 --> 00:27:18,846
I- I-I don't understand it.
608
00:27:23,851 --> 00:27:25,810
Well, I have no idea
fo what we just saw, e,
609
00:27:25,811 --> 00:27:29,188
but we did see something.
610
00:27:29,189 --> 00:27:31,607
Not bad for your first few hours
on the ranch?
611
00:27:31,608 --> 00:27:33,651
Yup, wasn't bad.
612
00:27:33,652 --> 00:27:35,403
Wasn't a monster or an alien
613
00:27:35,404 --> 00:27:38,614
or a UFO, but it was
still something weird.
614
00:27:38,615 --> 00:27:39,991
At least it was something.
615
00:27:39,992 --> 00:27:41,659
I certainly didn't expect
616
00:27:41,660 --> 00:27:44,328
to see anything
the first day I got here,
617
00:27:44,329 --> 00:27:45,663
much less the first hour,
618
00:27:45,664 --> 00:27:48,332
but when we walked up
on Skinwalker Ridge,
619
00:27:48,333 --> 00:27:52,003
we saw microwave radiation
at levels
620
00:27:52,004 --> 00:27:53,838
that were close to dangerous.
621
00:27:53,839 --> 00:27:55,673
Hey, guys, welcome back.
622
00:27:55,674 --> 00:27:57,508
And I wasn't expecting that.
623
00:27:57,509 --> 00:27:58,676
I can't explain it,
624
00:27:58,677 --> 00:28:00,845
but we're gonna get
to the bottom of it.
625
00:28:00,846 --> 00:28:05,016
There was some sort of source
of-of electromagnetic radiation
626
00:28:05,017 --> 00:28:06,559
hitting the bottom
of the mountain,
627
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,686
and as we moved
up the mountain, it seemed
628
00:28:08,687 --> 00:28:11,689
to get a little worse,
and it was random, though,
629
00:28:11,690 --> 00:28:14,275
'cause we'd point the meter in
one direction, and it'd peg out,
630
00:28:14,276 --> 00:28:16,444
then it'd stop. Then we'd point
it in another direction,
631
00:28:16,445 --> 00:28:19,697
and it'd peg out again.
Held my cell phone up to it,
632
00:28:19,698 --> 00:28:21,240
- it wasn't the cell phone.
- Yeah, electronics weren't--
633
00:28:21,241 --> 00:28:23,701
didn't seem to be the source
of it, which is...
634
00:28:23,702 --> 00:28:26,037
Well, and there was two of them
reacting the same way,
635
00:28:26,038 --> 00:28:28,706
so it wasn't a bad meter or
anything like that, we had both.
636
00:28:28,707 --> 00:28:31,042
And one time,
Erik was holding his pointed
637
00:28:31,043 --> 00:28:32,376
completely opposite direction,
638
00:28:32,377 --> 00:28:34,086
and both of them
were pegging out.
639
00:28:34,087 --> 00:28:36,047
- It was just-just strange.
- Well, and that sort of thing
640
00:28:36,048 --> 00:28:38,925
doesn't just happen on the mesa
or in the bowl like that.
641
00:28:38,926 --> 00:28:41,385
We'll come across times where
we'll be carrying that equipment
642
00:28:41,386 --> 00:28:44,889
and all of a sudden it'll
peg out for no reason.
643
00:28:44,890 --> 00:28:46,432
Yup.
644
00:28:46,433 --> 00:28:48,643
That's why we need to be
measuring this stuff
645
00:28:48,644 --> 00:28:50,895
over a long period of time.
646
00:28:50,896 --> 00:28:52,396
- Right.
- Exactly.
647
00:28:52,397 --> 00:28:53,814
- Right.
- Exactly.
648
00:28:53,815 --> 00:28:55,274
So I'd like to get about 50
649
00:28:55,275 --> 00:28:57,109
of those TriField meters
650
00:28:57,110 --> 00:28:59,987
and put them in known locations
around the ranch,
651
00:28:59,988 --> 00:29:02,073
like, up on the hill where we
just measured the crazy stuff,
652
00:29:02,074 --> 00:29:03,824
whatever that was,
653
00:29:03,825 --> 00:29:05,826
and-and have it real-time,
right there, being recorded.
654
00:29:05,827 --> 00:29:07,286
- Yeah. Yeah.
- Right?
655
00:29:07,287 --> 00:29:08,746
'Cause if something like that
656
00:29:08,747 --> 00:29:09,997
is happening like we just saw,
657
00:29:09,998 --> 00:29:11,666
I want us to capture
date and time
658
00:29:11,667 --> 00:29:13,125
'cause that way we might--
can figure out
659
00:29:13,126 --> 00:29:14,502
where it's coming from,
what it's doing,
660
00:29:14,503 --> 00:29:16,337
- and what's happening to it.
- Yeah.
661
00:29:16,338 --> 00:29:18,255
Beyond that,
I would like to have
662
00:29:18,256 --> 00:29:20,800
a complete sweep
of the radiation spectrum
663
00:29:20,801 --> 00:29:22,718
over the entire ranch.
664
00:29:22,719 --> 00:29:24,470
And that reminds
me, when they were doing
665
00:29:24,471 --> 00:29:25,930
the nuclear tests
down in Nevada...
666
00:29:25,931 --> 00:29:28,391
- Are you talking about the
atomic bomb testing? - Yes.
667
00:29:28,392 --> 00:29:30,267
When they were doing that
down in Nevada,
668
00:29:30,268 --> 00:29:32,269
the Uinta basin was actually
669
00:29:32,270 --> 00:29:34,855
- a hot spot for the downwind.
- Really?
670
00:29:34,856 --> 00:29:36,440
Some of the highest
concentrations measured,
671
00:29:36,441 --> 00:29:38,401
if I understand right, were just
672
00:29:38,402 --> 00:29:40,486
30 miles north of here.
673
00:29:40,487 --> 00:29:42,154
Well, we should look
into that as well.
674
00:29:42,155 --> 00:29:43,781
We-we know what
the decay products are
675
00:29:43,782 --> 00:29:45,616
from those particular tests
676
00:29:45,617 --> 00:29:47,535
and that's all documented
really well. We should
677
00:29:47,536 --> 00:29:49,954
look in to see how that
may have affected the ranch.
678
00:29:49,955 --> 00:29:51,665
- Right?
- That's a great idea. - Yup.
679
00:29:53,709 --> 00:29:55,751
Back during
the Manhattan Project,
680
00:29:55,752 --> 00:29:59,630
as, long ago as 1945
and on through the early '50s,
681
00:29:59,631 --> 00:30:02,341
a few hundred miles away,
682
00:30:02,342 --> 00:30:04,760
at the Nevada Test Site,
683
00:30:04,761 --> 00:30:09,473
there were aboveground
nuclear tests,
684
00:30:09,474 --> 00:30:12,351
meaning atomic bombs
were set off.
685
00:30:12,352 --> 00:30:14,145
Nuclear fallout was thrown up
into the sky,
686
00:30:14,146 --> 00:30:16,147
this is radioactive dirt,
687
00:30:16,148 --> 00:30:20,693
dust particles, that then fly
around with the air currents,
688
00:30:20,694 --> 00:30:24,155
and a lot of those winds
brought this radiation
689
00:30:24,156 --> 00:30:27,491
over the Uinta Basin
where Skinwalker Ranch is.
690
00:30:27,492 --> 00:30:29,785
So back in the '50s,
691
00:30:29,786 --> 00:30:32,663
it's highly likely
that radioactive fallout
692
00:30:32,664 --> 00:30:34,206
fell on this ranch,
693
00:30:34,207 --> 00:30:37,710
and some of it
should still be there today.
694
00:30:37,711 --> 00:30:41,047
It's possible that exposure
695
00:30:41,048 --> 00:30:43,507
to radioactive fallout
696
00:30:43,508 --> 00:30:46,177
could cause people
to have strange symptoms,
697
00:30:46,178 --> 00:30:49,847
maybe even hallucinations,
and see things, hear things,
698
00:30:49,848 --> 00:30:52,600
and maybe even do things
that would seem abnormal.
699
00:30:52,601 --> 00:30:55,519
There might be uranium
or something
700
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,229
- in the dirt here.
- Right.
701
00:30:57,230 --> 00:30:59,023
So we need to have
a complete radiation sweep,
702
00:30:59,024 --> 00:31:00,858
- so we'd have a map.
- Sure.
703
00:31:00,859 --> 00:31:02,777
- That's right.
- We need to look for radon gas
704
00:31:02,778 --> 00:31:05,112
'cause that's a by-product
of uranium decay.
705
00:31:05,113 --> 00:31:08,199
We should look for,
gammas and betas and alpha
706
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,367
particles even.
707
00:31:10,368 --> 00:31:11,786
We need to look
for radioactive trace
708
00:31:11,787 --> 00:31:13,954
or something in the ground,
so we should see
709
00:31:13,955 --> 00:31:16,832
what happens when we do
something like digging a hole.
710
00:31:16,833 --> 00:31:18,584
And we create
711
00:31:18,585 --> 00:31:22,046
a precisely controlled
experiment where
712
00:31:22,047 --> 00:31:24,006
we're digging to this depth,
713
00:31:24,007 --> 00:31:25,716
and to this size,
and this volume.
714
00:31:25,717 --> 00:31:29,303
And every five feet,
you do a gamma test.
715
00:31:29,304 --> 00:31:30,721
Right.
716
00:31:30,722 --> 00:31:32,723
We can be looking at
the electromagnetic spectrum
717
00:31:32,724 --> 00:31:35,101
while we're doing it in case
there is some kind of strange
718
00:31:35,102 --> 00:31:37,144
microwave phenomena
that's occurring.
719
00:31:37,145 --> 00:31:38,771
Look,
720
00:31:38,772 --> 00:31:41,941
scientists by nature
want to explain everything.
721
00:31:41,942 --> 00:31:44,235
- Well...
- See, here's-- The problem is,
722
00:31:44,236 --> 00:31:47,738
those of us that don't think in
a scientific mind all the time,
723
00:31:47,739 --> 00:31:49,573
talk about a feeling
or, you know,
724
00:31:49,574 --> 00:31:51,992
something-- the heebie-jeebies,
whatever you want to call it...
725
00:31:51,993 --> 00:31:54,036
- Right.
- ...in us laypeople terms.
726
00:31:54,037 --> 00:31:57,581
I mean, I'm not a scientist, but
I've spent a ton of time here,
727
00:31:57,582 --> 00:31:59,250
I know for a fact,
728
00:31:59,251 --> 00:32:01,961
crap goes down when people
start disturbing the earth.
729
00:32:01,962 --> 00:32:05,422
If we start digging,
that's the trigger.
730
00:32:05,423 --> 00:32:08,467
You know, if you're
gonna be a part of this,
731
00:32:08,468 --> 00:32:13,014
I have to unequivocably say
"No digging."
732
00:32:22,732 --> 00:32:26,485
When you guys talk about every
W time somebody digs out here
733
00:32:26,486 --> 00:32:28,404
on the ranch
without asking about
734
00:32:28,405 --> 00:32:31,157
where to and where not to dig,
it seems to me
735
00:32:31,158 --> 00:32:33,617
like that's-that's
a big blinking sign saying
736
00:32:33,618 --> 00:32:36,954
"if you want to create the
phenomena to manifest itself,
737
00:32:36,955 --> 00:32:39,081
- you go and dig somewhere."
- I'm not
738
00:32:39,082 --> 00:32:41,041
the type that wants
to go looking for trouble.
739
00:32:41,042 --> 00:32:43,002
There's enough going on
around this place
740
00:32:43,003 --> 00:32:45,588
where I-I'm not looking
to stir up trouble.
741
00:32:45,589 --> 00:32:48,257
- Yeah, I mean, I-I hear you...
- Great.
742
00:32:48,258 --> 00:32:49,800
The history of the place
743
00:32:49,801 --> 00:32:54,263
has said that when you dig,
bad stuff happens.
744
00:32:54,264 --> 00:32:56,807
I heard about not digging
745
00:32:56,808 --> 00:32:59,143
as soon as I came
onto the property.
746
00:32:59,144 --> 00:33:02,354
It goes back to previous owners
of the property.
747
00:33:02,355 --> 00:33:06,192
They said that when you dig
or disturb the earth,
748
00:33:06,193 --> 00:33:11,071
that is what seemed to trigger
whatever phenomenon is here
749
00:33:11,072 --> 00:33:15,743
and caused harm, and that's not
what I'm looking to do here.
750
00:33:15,744 --> 00:33:17,995
Well, how about you, Erik?
751
00:33:17,996 --> 00:33:20,664
Well, do you want to go out
and start digging holes?
752
00:33:20,665 --> 00:33:23,125
You're the eyes and ears
of the place.
753
00:33:23,126 --> 00:33:24,335
I'm doing my very best
754
00:33:24,336 --> 00:33:25,794
not to be superstitious
about this.
755
00:33:25,795 --> 00:33:28,464
I am intensely curious
756
00:33:28,465 --> 00:33:31,175
about what might be below
this-this ranch.
757
00:33:31,176 --> 00:33:33,594
But I do not consider
758
00:33:33,595 --> 00:33:37,765
my own curiosity
an entitlement to knowledge.
759
00:33:37,766 --> 00:33:41,810
There are some contexts in which
perhaps even I shouldn't know
760
00:33:41,811 --> 00:33:43,687
about what's going on
on the ranch.
761
00:33:43,688 --> 00:33:45,814
But until I'm advised
to that end,
762
00:33:45,815 --> 00:33:48,943
I'm proceeding as if this
is an observational,
763
00:33:48,944 --> 00:33:51,237
- experimental undertaking.
- Well,
764
00:33:51,238 --> 00:33:52,571
I think that's
what it has to be.
765
00:33:52,572 --> 00:33:54,698
My grandmother used
to always say,
766
00:33:54,699 --> 00:33:56,158
"A hornet's nest
isn't interesting
767
00:33:56,159 --> 00:33:57,576
until you poke it with a stick."
768
00:33:57,577 --> 00:33:59,370
- Right? And...
- Okay, well,
769
00:33:59,371 --> 00:34:01,163
what kind of hornets
were you dealing with?
770
00:34:01,164 --> 00:34:04,833
Well, hornets that sting,
so you use a really long stick
771
00:34:04,834 --> 00:34:06,919
- and then you drop the stick and
run really fast. - Okay, so...
772
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:08,712
who's gonna do
the digging, then?
773
00:34:08,713 --> 00:34:11,840
Well, that's a good question.
I don't know the answer to that.
774
00:34:11,841 --> 00:34:15,719
Maybe we get volunteers
that don't mind the risk?
775
00:34:15,720 --> 00:34:18,347
It's impossible
to explain the risk.
776
00:34:18,348 --> 00:34:19,723
There's one person
that knows the risk,
777
00:34:19,724 --> 00:34:21,518
and he's sitting
right there. Right?
778
00:34:23,603 --> 00:34:26,730
Having been a person that's done
a lot of digging on this ranch,
779
00:34:26,731 --> 00:34:28,607
the more serious
of digging I do,
780
00:34:28,608 --> 00:34:31,820
the more serious of consequences
that follow.
781
00:34:34,948 --> 00:34:36,907
I didn't believe
in the paranormal
782
00:34:36,908 --> 00:34:38,534
when I came out on this ranch.
783
00:34:38,535 --> 00:34:41,704
And I paid a pretty hefty price.
784
00:34:41,705 --> 00:34:45,708
When they told me not to dig, I
just thought it was ridiculou.
785
00:34:45,709 --> 00:34:50,296
And so, one day,
I decided to do some digging.
786
00:34:50,297 --> 00:34:54,425
And then, three days after,
I noticed that I had
787
00:34:54,426 --> 00:34:56,260
a goose egg
on the back of my head.
788
00:34:56,261 --> 00:34:59,013
By the time I let my wife
789
00:34:59,014 --> 00:35:00,764
finally take me
to the emergency room,
790
00:35:00,765 --> 00:35:04,602
the goose egg had actually
spread through my entire head.
791
00:35:04,603 --> 00:35:07,896
My scalp separated
from my skull.
792
00:35:07,897 --> 00:35:10,899
The pain is so excruciating,
I've never felt anything
793
00:35:10,900 --> 00:35:13,694
like it before in my life.
794
00:35:13,695 --> 00:35:16,947
The doctors had no idea
what caused it.
795
00:35:16,948 --> 00:35:18,907
They didn't know how to fix i.
796
00:35:18,908 --> 00:35:20,909
Basically they're telling me
what happened to me
797
00:35:20,910 --> 00:35:24,955
was medically impossible, and
it caused me a severe injury
798
00:35:24,956 --> 00:35:28,792
that to this day I'm still
having some repercussions with.
799
00:35:28,793 --> 00:35:32,463
I know that I was warned,
"Hey, don't do digging."
800
00:35:32,464 --> 00:35:35,799
I didn't have this preconceived
idea in my mind that if I dug,
801
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,179
something bad was gonna happen,
because I-I didn't believe it.
802
00:35:41,264 --> 00:35:44,642
Enough things have happened
to myself, to the equipment,
803
00:35:44,643 --> 00:35:47,978
it is a possibility
that they are correlated.
804
00:35:47,979 --> 00:35:49,980
This is real stuff.
805
00:35:49,981 --> 00:35:51,899
This is nothing
to take for granted.
806
00:35:51,900 --> 00:35:54,151
You're talking about
health and wellbeing.
807
00:35:54,152 --> 00:35:56,904
T- This is no nonsense.
808
00:35:56,905 --> 00:35:58,822
I get it.
809
00:35:58,823 --> 00:36:00,658
These guys are nervous.
810
00:36:00,659 --> 00:36:02,951
When they've dug,
they've seen things happen.
811
00:36:02,952 --> 00:36:04,912
Tom's injury was real serious.
812
00:36:04,913 --> 00:36:07,915
It scares them a little bit
and they want to be careful.
813
00:36:07,916 --> 00:36:09,333
And I get that.
814
00:36:09,334 --> 00:36:10,959
I don't want anybody
to get hurt.
815
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,713
But I'm not sure
what caused the injury.
816
00:36:14,714 --> 00:36:16,382
And I think we're only
gonna find that out
817
00:36:16,383 --> 00:36:19,468
by doing a lot more
experimentation.
818
00:36:19,469 --> 00:36:23,013
We are interacting with this
somehow or other,
819
00:36:23,014 --> 00:36:26,100
and so we need to calibrate what
we're doing to the experiment.
820
00:36:26,101 --> 00:36:27,810
Look, if we're gonna dig,
821
00:36:27,811 --> 00:36:29,645
if we're gonna test this,
let's just do it in a way
822
00:36:29,646 --> 00:36:31,647
that we're keeping
the possibility
823
00:36:31,648 --> 00:36:34,566
that it may be dangerous and
let's put some safety nets up,
824
00:36:34,567 --> 00:36:35,777
just in case.
825
00:36:37,445 --> 00:36:40,030
Jim, what do, what do you
think about it?
826
00:36:40,031 --> 00:36:42,658
I think we should dig
because I want to learn more
827
00:36:42,659 --> 00:36:44,201
about what it means to dig.
828
00:36:44,202 --> 00:36:47,788
I don't see an anomaly happening
as a warning,
829
00:36:47,789 --> 00:36:49,415
I see it as an invitation.
830
00:36:49,416 --> 00:36:51,041
Look,
831
00:36:51,042 --> 00:36:53,043
it's not my piece of property.
832
00:36:53,044 --> 00:36:55,879
You've been brought here
obviously for a purpose.
833
00:36:55,880 --> 00:37:00,509
If the owner of the property
says, "I want this to happen,"
834
00:37:00,510 --> 00:37:02,553
then I'm on board.
835
00:37:02,554 --> 00:37:06,223
We ought to see if we can
get Brandon on the line
836
00:37:06,224 --> 00:37:07,558
and talk to him
about some of the stuff
837
00:37:07,559 --> 00:37:09,226
that we've talked about.
838
00:37:09,227 --> 00:37:11,729
Erik, do you think
we can get him on video chat
839
00:37:11,730 --> 00:37:13,605
- or something like that,
see if we can give him an update? - Sure.
840
00:37:13,606 --> 00:37:15,399
- Sure, I'll bring him up now.
- All right.
841
00:37:28,538 --> 00:37:31,081
- Hey, Brandon.
- Greetings, team. How are you?
842
00:37:31,082 --> 00:37:32,416
- Doing well.
- Doing great, how are you?
843
00:37:32,417 --> 00:37:34,877
I am glad that you patched me in
844
00:37:34,878 --> 00:37:38,213
and I'm wondering how the
investigation is progressing.
845
00:37:38,214 --> 00:37:40,758
Well, it's been an eventful day.
846
00:37:40,759 --> 00:37:43,260
As the ranch usually does
when we bring new people on,
847
00:37:43,261 --> 00:37:45,971
it seems to,
liven up a little bit.
848
00:37:45,972 --> 00:37:50,058
And we, caught some
pretty interesting things today.
849
00:37:50,059 --> 00:37:51,268
Yeah, Brandon, when we were up
850
00:37:51,269 --> 00:37:52,936
on the mesa, the TriField meters
851
00:37:52,937 --> 00:37:58,233
were measuring really strong
transient microwave fields
852
00:37:58,234 --> 00:38:00,611
and-and the power that,
we were picking up
853
00:38:00,612 --> 00:38:02,821
was on the verge
of being dangerous levels.
854
00:38:02,822 --> 00:38:07,367
So, I'd like to get some
more precise measurements made.
855
00:38:07,368 --> 00:38:11,288
Yeah, that's-that's disturbing,
and that is also consistent
856
00:38:11,289 --> 00:38:14,458
with what we've experienced
in the past.
857
00:38:14,459 --> 00:38:17,461
What are the priority items
going forward
858
00:38:17,462 --> 00:38:19,463
as we launch into this phase
of the investigation?
859
00:38:19,464 --> 00:38:22,883
So, one of the first
things the guys want to do
860
00:38:22,884 --> 00:38:24,927
is get some surveys
and some testing done.
861
00:38:24,928 --> 00:38:27,304
They want to do some RF testing.
862
00:38:27,305 --> 00:38:30,307
They want to do
radiological testing,
863
00:38:30,308 --> 00:38:33,936
some thermography and...
864
00:38:33,937 --> 00:38:35,854
they want to dig.
865
00:38:39,818 --> 00:38:41,318
You know, I...
866
00:38:41,319 --> 00:38:44,947
I'm not sure
I'm comfortable with that.
867
00:38:44,948 --> 00:38:47,950
W-which part are you not
comfortable with, Brandon?
868
00:38:47,951 --> 00:38:52,287
The digging. I think that
once we commence digging,
869
00:38:52,288 --> 00:38:54,456
it opens up
a whole Pandora's box,
870
00:38:54,457 --> 00:38:56,834
and there are certain risks
871
00:38:56,835 --> 00:39:01,338
that I think
you just aren't privy to
872
00:39:01,339 --> 00:39:03,841
and haven't been
properly briefed on.
873
00:39:03,842 --> 00:39:06,510
When Brandon said
874
00:39:06,511 --> 00:39:08,136
there was no digging
on the ranch, I was stunned.
875
00:39:08,137 --> 00:39:09,680
How are we gonna get
to the bottom of things
876
00:39:09,681 --> 00:39:11,139
happening on this place,
877
00:39:11,140 --> 00:39:13,559
if we can't investigate
in every way we can?
878
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:15,185
Well, we need
879
00:39:15,186 --> 00:39:17,563
to be briefed
on that data, then,
880
00:39:17,564 --> 00:39:19,231
so we can understand
the phenomena
881
00:39:19,232 --> 00:39:23,861
that we're being exposed to
or trying to uncover.
882
00:39:23,862 --> 00:39:25,863
I understand. Erik,
883
00:39:25,864 --> 00:39:30,534
do you happen to have
the, the case?
884
00:39:30,535 --> 00:39:32,661
I do. I've been saving it
885
00:39:32,662 --> 00:39:34,997
until the right point in
the discussion to bring it up.
886
00:39:34,998 --> 00:39:40,168
My first reaction
when Brandon tells me
887
00:39:40,169 --> 00:39:41,753
that they haven't
showed us everything,
888
00:39:41,754 --> 00:39:43,881
that we haven't seen
all the information they have...
889
00:39:43,882 --> 00:39:46,049
Well, how can I help them
890
00:39:46,050 --> 00:39:48,218
if they don't give me
all the information?
891
00:39:48,219 --> 00:39:51,722
And I was a little bit
concerned about that.
892
00:39:51,723 --> 00:39:53,807
This is not to be taken lightly,
893
00:39:53,808 --> 00:39:56,727
and that's why we've kept
the material
894
00:39:56,728 --> 00:39:59,146
under lock and key.
895
00:39:59,147 --> 00:40:01,398
I think you'll understand
soon why.
896
00:40:01,399 --> 00:40:02,983
This is a matter of, really,
897
00:40:02,984 --> 00:40:05,694
the highest level
of seriousness and sensitivity.
898
00:40:05,695 --> 00:40:07,738
These are
hornets that you've never
899
00:40:07,739 --> 00:40:09,364
had to deal with before.
900
00:40:09,365 --> 00:40:11,241
Hornets. All right.
901
00:40:11,242 --> 00:40:13,201
Well, I want to see them.
902
00:40:13,202 --> 00:40:15,537
Erik, with that,
903
00:40:15,538 --> 00:40:17,748
proceed to show them
what is in the case.
904
00:40:17,749 --> 00:40:19,416
Regrettably,
I have to go to a meeting,
905
00:40:19,417 --> 00:40:21,919
so I'll look
for your update later.
906
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,755
- Thanks, gentlemen.
- Thanks, Brandon.
907
00:40:24,756 --> 00:40:27,466
I came into this
saying, look, guys,
908
00:40:27,467 --> 00:40:29,051
we're gonna follow
the scientific method.
909
00:40:29,052 --> 00:40:31,470
You can't keep data
910
00:40:31,471 --> 00:40:35,849
away from the experiment and
not show the rest of the team,
911
00:40:35,850 --> 00:40:38,477
in order for it
to be a good experiment.
912
00:40:38,478 --> 00:40:41,146
I've got a U. S.
government clearance,
913
00:40:41,147 --> 00:40:42,940
and I don't see
why Brandon and the team
914
00:40:42,941 --> 00:40:44,775
feel like they have
to keep anything from me.
915
00:40:44,776 --> 00:40:46,234
Now, I'm beginning
to wonder what the heck
916
00:40:46,235 --> 00:40:48,404
they've got in store for me.
917
00:40:50,114 --> 00:40:51,782
So what I am going to show you
918
00:40:51,783 --> 00:40:53,450
may offer an explanation
for some
919
00:40:53,451 --> 00:40:55,494
of what we've been
seeing on the property.
920
00:40:55,495 --> 00:40:58,164
You'll understand
as soon as I open this up.
921
00:41:05,213 --> 00:41:06,422
Wow.
922
00:41:10,343 --> 00:41:13,762
The legend is that
things happen on this ranch.
923
00:41:13,763 --> 00:41:15,347
Okay, that's spiking.
924
00:41:15,348 --> 00:41:17,391
- That could be dangerous.
- It's coming from up there.
925
00:41:17,392 --> 00:41:19,101
The signal was
coming from the sky.
926
00:41:19,102 --> 00:41:21,144
- What is that?
- Do you guys see that?
927
00:41:21,145 --> 00:41:22,479
It flew from behind
the mesa. Foom.
928
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:23,647
- There it is.
- There it is again.
929
00:41:23,648 --> 00:41:25,857
Whoa. That's a definite beam.
930
00:41:25,858 --> 00:41:30,320
The moment that object appeared,
the cow reacted.
931
00:41:30,321 --> 00:41:32,447
We are dealing with
some kind of intelligence
932
00:41:32,448 --> 00:41:34,825
that has the ability
to paralyze.
933
00:41:34,826 --> 00:41:38,578
It felt like someone was
knocking from under the floor.
934
00:41:38,579 --> 00:41:40,956
- What is that?
- Is that a fragmented bone?
935
00:41:40,957 --> 00:41:42,374
It could be human remains.
936
00:41:42,375 --> 00:41:45,085
We have something active
beneath this property.
937
00:41:45,086 --> 00:41:47,879
- It stinks in here.
- I don't want to stay in here very long.
938
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:49,798
We were just exposed
to ionizing radiation.
939
00:41:49,799 --> 00:41:51,258
- My head is killing me.
- This is serious.
940
00:41:51,259 --> 00:41:53,010
I think it's time
to go to the hospital.
941
00:41:53,011 --> 00:41:55,012
I wanted to get
out here as soon as I could.
942
00:41:55,013 --> 00:41:56,847
Who or what
could we be dealing with?
943
00:41:56,848 --> 00:41:59,266
There is something of
significant size down there.
944
00:41:59,267 --> 00:42:00,809
- Is it saucer-shaped?
- Yes.
945
00:42:00,810 --> 00:42:02,352
Let's dig it up.
946
00:42:02,353 --> 00:42:03,687
- Look at that.
- What is that?
947
00:42:03,688 --> 00:42:05,022
Why is that rocking like that?
948
00:42:06,524 --> 00:42:08,567
What we saw tonight was real.
949
00:42:08,568 --> 00:42:11,112
