Myths of insect-like beings
helping humanity during times

of cataclysms can be found
throughout the ancient world.

Often referred to as mantis
or mantids, insectoids or even

Ant People.

Their influence can
still be felt today.

Thousands of contactees
claiming to have

been aboard
extraterrestrial spacecrafts

recount mantis-looking
beings who

seem to have a
vested interest in

our evolutionary development.

If this is so, who
are these insectoids

that work in the shadows.

And what is their influence
upon humanity and our future?

[MUSIC PLAYING]

We see representations
of insectoids throughout

Earth's history, particularly
with the Egyptian culture.

There was other depictions
of insectoid beings

in some of the Mayan cultures,
with some of the cultures

that we see out of Africa.

So I think they were at
times teachers to humanity.

And that's why these beings
are currently being depicted

throughout Earth's history.

There was depictions
of insectoid beings

even within the Native
American cultures, particularly

the ant people.

We know about the ant people
helping the Native American

people from the oral stories of
the Zuni and the Hopi people,

as well as from the petroglyphic
carvings that we find

in Northern Arizona showing
us depictions of these

insectoid-looking people
that are the Ant People.

Thousands of years
ago, Earth was

facing a very major
cataclysm that

was threatening to
destroy all of life

on the surface of the planet.

As this cataclysm
was getting underway,

the ant people came out from
under the surface of the Earth

and ushered humanity into
these underground caverns,

and cared for humanity while
the surface of the Earth

was just being devastated.

And there, they stayed
for generations.

After the cataclysm
had passed, humanity

was led back up to the
surface, and these ant people

were instrumental in
helping the humans learn

how to replant
foods, how to go back

into the agricultural
communities

so that they could
survive very well

on the surface of the planet.

The petroglyphs on the walls
where Ant People have been

described in the South, in
Mexico, and various areas,

those people referred
to, I believe,

were the small greys or the
medium-sized greys because they

had the long spindly arms,
the big heads, and so forth.

And so they got the
idea that the only thing

they could link them to or
talk about in a description

that they knew was the ants.

There is also the
possibility that some

of those that are
termed Ant People

could be from inner Earth.

There is definitely a group
of different alien species

on an inner Earth.

They kind of look
like Ant People,

like live in and out where
the poles have openings.

So there's the possibility
of both of those

being classified as Ant People.

According to one nature
photographer and art historian,

there is a cliff sculpture in
Colorado that commemorates when

the Ant People rescued Native
Americans from two separate

cataclysms thousands
of years ago.

While historical lore
describe ant or mantis-looking

beings inhabiting
inner Earth, what

do we know about their
Galactic origins?

Where do these
mantis beings come from?

That's still kind of a mystery.

We don't know if
they've got a home world

or if they're scattered
throughout the cosmos

and various home worlds.

There are reports
that they do have

some bases here in our solar
system, little planetoids

or even on Mars,
different locations.

We have only interacted
with the insectoids in a few

locations on ships and
on the surface of Mars.

You can assume that
they have places they

come from that are all over.

It eventually becomes
difficult for us

to say they come from a planet.

The ones that are
negatively oriented

are almost entirely
seen on ships.

And we don't really see them
running around some other place

having societies.

We don't see anything like that.

We see them doing jobs on ships.

That's it.

The ones that are
free, the good ones,

we see on the surface of
some planets, such as Mars.

The mantis beings are a
physicality type that is seen

in variations of forms
throughout our universe

and our galaxy.

My understanding
is they actually

originated from a
different universe,

but have settled
here in our universe.

They were the
beings that resided

in the star system of Antares.

They were considered to be the
gatekeepers of the Antarian

stargate.

There was a reason why they
had to oversee this stargate

because souls were allowed to
pass through from Andromeda

galaxy, but they
were not allowed

to leave the Milky Way galaxy.

Because once you
made that decision

to become part of the
Milky Way experience,

you had to make a commitment
to be here for a while.

So what's known from
contactees is that they come

from Orion, Andromeda, and
way far out into the galaxies

and beyond into
realms and worlds.

They are a matriarchal society,
where the females rule,

but everyone is still equal.

They are so advanced in
their consciousness moving up

the dimensions that they
even have these high temples

of learning and
spiral learning where

they can invite an individual
or a planetary consciousness

that's ready to move into
their next realm to ascend.

Mantis beings are referred
to as insectoids by humans.

But that is simply
a classification

we've created, limited by our
current knowledge of Earth

species.

According to
eyewitness accounts,

mantis beings take on a
wide range of appearances.

Perhaps the most striking
aspect of the mantis alien

is its physical kinship
with the praying mantis,

the carnivorous and bipedal
insect of its namesake.

A lot of what we got about
mantis beings comes to us from

eyewitness reports, people
who've seen them or various

other situations that
they've come across these

insectoid-looking beings.

They all describe the
same kind of thing

that they've got these elongated
arms, extended skinny torsos,

that they have some sort
of a shiny exoskeleton.

And a triangular
shaped head sometimes

with some proboscis poking out
from their heads, which really

gives us the
impression that these

look a lot like praying mantis.

And sometimes these reports
tell us that they have a cloak

around them, like either a dark
grey cloak or a blue cloak.

But they definitely have this
elongated insectoid appearance

about them.

Most of the descriptions
I've seen, it has a proboscis,

which is like what an insect
has is this sort of tongue

and projection of
its mouth cavity.

And it seems to fit
the perfect description

of what a praying
mantis should be,

even down to a point where
its hands are actually bent

and in that position.

The mantis beings
have three pronged hands.

So it's sort of like three
prongs that go down like this.

Their feet have sort of
a suction cup feeling.

So when they walk, they
can have a stability.

On their crafts, it is
said that everything is run

telepathically through them.

Insectoids as a whole mostly
follow the mantis appearance ,

but there's varying sizes.

There are some
that are very, very

large, like the
Antarian insectoids were

very large beings.

They were 15 to 20 feet tall.

There are others that were
the technicians that work with

the grey aliens.

Maybe some of the
insectoids that we

saw in Orion that were more
closer to human height.

And I think that's
just a variation where

depending on which star
systems or which locations

that they came from, it was just
a natural evolution of height.

There are different types
of insectoid beings.

I would say the mantis is
the most prominent one.

But there is also beetle
like-looking beings.

There's just variations
of insectoid beings,

just like there are variations
of insects on planet Earth.

Regarding different
alien ET races,

praying mantises are placed
in quataloids category within

the Defense Intelligence Agency.

They are genetically engineered.

And one particular type
looks like a praying mantis.

The larger praying mantis
is 5 or 6 foot tall.

And the second type
is more humanoid.

Now when we say
humanoid, we're not

talking about human-looking.

Thicker skin, a more
structured-looking head.

There's two basic types--

the hostile and the friendly.

The hostile are
essentially a slave race

to another group of
extraterrestrials

called the reptilians.

In terms of the hostile groups,
the reptilians are at the top.

And all groups below
that, they manipulate

in some way direct or indirect,
and they're essentially

all slaves of that
higher reptilian source.

The good mantis
beings are not slaves.

They are not controlled
by the reptilians.

And they have an
independent orientation.

Despite their daunting
outer appearance,

many researchers report that
encounters with mantis beings

have been for the
most part positive.

First of all, they're
totally sentient.

And almost everybody
else in the galaxy,

their communicative capabilities
are almost entirely telepathic.

So they don't use
a mouth like we

use to vibrate air to make
sounds that produce things.

And if you get a
good one and they're

interested in
communicating with you

and you're physically there,
they often put like pincers up

against her head, and they
bring themselves close

and they go into
your head that way.

And then they can go through
your head like a Rolodex.

And often when they
communicate with you,

they're trying to sort
out what kind of person

you are to have a
nice communication.

So if you're a hostile to them,
you may not fare too well.

But if you're friendly to them,
they'll have a conversation.

Mantis beings are the
most enigmatic beings of all

of them.

I have talked with
many researchers

just to see if we
could find anybody that

has had experiences with them.

Usually somebody would have
at least one experience

with a mantis being,
which was always positive.

I believe that the mantis are
very empathic, they are loving,

they are caring.

And that tends to be for the
most part what is experienced.

I believe that the
idea that the mantis

are confrontational or
negative or anything.

Most of the time, it
stems from the fact

that they look so scary.

They look so daunting.

And we immediately imply, Oh
my God, if you look like that,

you've got to be mean.

And that's not
necessarily the case.

A lot of the reports come
back that these beings have

a good sense of humor, that
there is a lighter disposition

to them.

They're a bit friendlier.

And they're kind of fun to
be around despite initially

being off put by their
scary appearance.

One of the stories we
have about interaction

comes to us from Pete
Peterson when he was working

in some of the secret programs.

He talked about interacting
with mantis type beings in some

of the underground military
bases and in the programs

that he works with.

One of the stories he
tells is when they were all

sitting around the eating
table at the mess hall,

and the mantis
beings were making

fun of the way humans were
eating, because to them the way

we eat is a little disgusting
and a little bit weird.

But he said that they were
cracking jokes all the time,

and that they were
having just a lot of fun.

They were just a joy to
be around the entire time.

For me, because I felt secure
with the people I was with,

then I felt secure.

So it wasn't a fright.

I didn't think the
thing was going

to turn around and eat me.

But I had wonderment.

It looked like it was an insect
that was all structured--

two feet, two legs, two
arms, two hands, two eyes,

and a nose, then a mouth,
mandible, chin and ears.

Didn't have long antennas, but
it had little balls on stubs.

I noticed that the
skin scraped together

and it sounded like
fingernail files.

It looked like it may have
come from a praying mantis.

Then spoke like it had
horny plates and things

like that it moved
around to make

the dissonances and the
resonances, stuff like that.

It didn't sound like it was
coming through a soft tissue

mouth.

It spoke English.

And some speak and some just
talk to you in your head.

It's like you know
what they're thinking

and they know what
you're thinking.

In the 1970s, the
United States Air Force had

an encounter with a craft
piloted by a mantis-like being

that was taken into custody.

According to retired
Air Force Office

of Special Investigations
agent Richard Doty,

classified documents that he was
privy to described this event.

The quataloid craft
was flying in Nevada.

This is in the early '70s.

It crashed because it was
shot at by an Air Force jet.

An F-4 jet flying out of Nellis
Air Force base encountered it.

Jet didn't have a
weapons system on.

Another jet was launched
from Nellis Air Force base,

chased this craft.

There was hostile acts presented
against the Air Force aircraft.

And Air Force jet fired
a sidewinder missile.

It struck it, and it crashed.

There were quataloids
in the craft.

And one of them died,
two of them were alive.

When the military personnel
recovered the wreckage,

these two quataloids already had
some kind of environmental suit

on them.

And so they were taken
out of the craft,

they were detained
by military police,

and they were taken to
this containment area.

Of course, we obviously
did a lot of analysis

on the dead one
determining its structure--

entirely different
anatomy-wise, biologically-wise.

They're all different
than any of the Ebens.

But their brain was
enormously more advanced

than anything we'd ever seen.

It had lobes and other
things that we just

couldn't understand.

Everything was connected.

They took apart
the nerve fibers.

We called them nerves.

Everything was
controlled by the brain.

They didn't have a
central nervous system.

They didn't have a
backbone, so to speak.

They had a bony structure,
something different than ours.

Their eyes were
extremely more advanced.

They had almost three
sets of eyeballs.

They're the ones that
could feed themselves.

They had little
pouches on their side,

and they produced a
ball of something.

And they could eat it and
keep themselves sustained.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

The craft that was shot down
over Nevada was 100 foot.

It was not exactly saucer-shaped
but pretty close to it.

It was very tall,
probably 30 or 40 feet.

The interior craft was
extremely complicated.

They controlled
everything by their hands.

And there was something
else that they'd

placed over their head, as
if maybe their brain was also

controlling something.

One of the things
that was really unique

about this craft--

this blue fluid circulated all
over the craft, tubular lines.

Tubettes, I think
they called them.

And it all centered in
the bottom of the craft

where the propulsion system was.

So when the propulsion
system was activated,

this bluish fluid
would circulate

all over the interior
walls of the craft.

Now, I don't know that we
determined whether it was maybe

something to do with cooling.

Maybe it assisted them
in stabilizing the craft.

I don't know.

In addition to government
encounters with mantis-like

beings and their crafts, there
are people worldwide who claim

to have had direct contact with
the mantis species when taken

aboard their spacecrafts.

One of the most
common revelations

about the mantis
beings is that they

appear to be working closely
with the extraterrestrials

known as the greys.

The reports of how people
would have interacted with

the mantis beings comes
through these people onboard

a spacecraft with grey
aliens, short grey aliens,

seeming to do a bulk of the work
where the mantis-type beings

are the superiors, the bosses,
giving instructions and guiding

the whole situation
that's going on.

So of course, the people when
they're in this scenario,

they're a little bit
afraid, a little concerned

for their own safety
and what's going on.

Then when the mantis bring
themselves to the forefront

and they're interacting,
they give a sense of calm.

They convey a sense
of peacefulness,

letting them know
that you're OK.

We're not here to harm you.

This is going to be all right.

And the mantis will
employ the short greys,

to do that kind of
grunt work, to do

some of that base-level
foundation work that leaves

them free and open to use their
minds to connect at a higher

level, do the
higher-level working.

And what we're seeing throughout
the cosmos is that there are

beings that operate on the fifth
or sixth density or even higher

and that they cannot work on
the third density where most

of humanity is.

So they need to work with
an intermediary species

like the short greys
who can communicate

to the fifth- and
sixth-density beings

but yet operate in the
third density where we are.

So that may be one of the
biggest reasons why the mantis

are using the short greys--

because their minds are too high
of a level to directly interact

with what needs to be done.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

The job is a
breeding process,

a genetic engineering
breeding process.

Their ultimate goal is to have a
population of extraterrestrials

that we would call Essassani,
which are half grey and half

human.

So those mantis
beings, their job

is to get that group
of people ready.

Now, that group
of people was not

designed to live someplace else.

They're designed to
blend into human society.

So the control that's
necessary is really oriented

around getting
the people who are

being brought into the ships
through a physical examination.

And then there is a large
component of behavioral stuff.

So once you have the Essassani,
half-grey half-human beings

there, they don't know
how to survive on Earth.

They don't know anything.

Mantis beings, I think
they have their own agenda.

I kind of see them
more as neutral beings

where they have a
scientific interest in us.

Contactees often report
mantis beings conveying mental

imagery of the destruction
of planet Earth to illustrate

the positive-negative impact
that our species could have

upon the planet.

Others have reported an
increase in psychic abilities

post-contact.

Many experiencers
claim that the mantis

seem to possess the
uncanny ability to put them

at ease, offering telepathic
communication to eliminate

the fear of an encounter.

Understanding the complexity
of these communications

is the challenge to those
having a contact experience.

I think possibly they're
there to physically invade

your mind.

And maybe they're
specialists in that.

So I would suggest
that they actually

are there for a purpose.

They're not just there
as an overseer, which

is very hard to
understand because people

can't access that information
or use it productively.

So there's a very
common experience

where you get a download
into your brain,

but then you're not going to
use it for any specific things.

They don't see humans.

They see Earth thinking.

And that's the main concept
that we have to change.

They see a whole planet
thinking something,

trying to figure out
who the planet is.

Who am I is asking the planet.

That's why we have
so many cultures,

so many countries
fighting each other.

It's like we are a
schizophrenic teenager right now

for the galaxy, basically,
with too much hormones.

So they are just giving us
space to figure out who we are,

what do we want to
be when we grow up.

So they are just guiding us,
not trying to control us.

Based exclusively on the
testimony from contactees,

some researchers posit that a
mantis hybridization program is

currently taking place using
alien DNA to upgrade the human

species.

If this is so, to what end are
these insectoid beings guiding

humanity?

What we know about the
agenda of contact with mantis

and humans is a little
bit disconnected.

We don't have, necessarily,
a big strong agreement.

But there does seem to be some
sort of genetic experiment

thing going on.

The only collective
information that we

seem to have from the
eyewitnesses and the people who

have worked with mantis as
to what their mission is

is to help humanity reach
a higher state of being.

But it seems to be at
the cellular level,

the genetic level,
not necessarily so

much at the spiritual level.

The Arcturians would be more
of a spiritual-level type

evolution.

But it seems the
mantis are helping us

at the cellular level.

The mantis might be interacting
with other species who

have had a genetic influence on
humanity through the Galactic

Federation, because
our reports of people

who have worked with
the Galactic Federation

and had direct
interactions with it

have talked about all of
the genetic experiments

that other beings work with.

They get that permission
to work with humanity

and do the work that
they're doing here.

So the interactions of
the mantis, I believe,

will be as a concerted effort
through the Galactic Federation

and working with other
civilizations that

are a part of the Federation.

The mantis mentality
regarding humanity--

at this point in time, I
would say one of benevolence.

If it fits their
agenda, which is, so far

as we know, to learn, to
understand, to experience--

unlike their appearance,
a rose always

has thorns, so there may be some
negativity in some instance.

But the majority of the
interaction with mantis

has been one of quiet and peace.

So ultimately,
don't fear the mantis.

They might look
a little strange.

They might seem a
little bit weird.

They might be a
little off-putting

the moment that you see them.

But we can embrace
that diversity.

We can embrace that uniqueness.

Because they are ultimately
here for our own benefit,

for our own good.

And if we can be open to the
benevolence that they have

and the kindness
that they have, we

can have a shared
mutual experience that

is just beneficial for all.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

For a civilization
such as ours,

seemingly separated from the
universe without contact with

advanced intelligences
outside of our own,

it's difficult to imagine how
consciousness and life have

evolved.

For the majority
of humankind, it's

difficult to accept that highly
evolved civilizations exist

that have an appearance that
remind us of an insect species

here on Earth.

But whether insectoid
beings had a hand

in guiding humankind
thousands of years ago

or are currently
influencing us genetically

toward a new phase of our
evolution remains to be seen.

Perhaps when humanity is
ready to take that next step

in conscious evolution,
will this illusive race

of insectoids finally
step out of the shadows

and shine more light on
our mutual connection?

Join us next time when we
discuss a rare ET species

from one of the
oldest star systems

in our galaxy, the Felines.
