Look at that jumping. Look-it, it's going nuts.

Radiation spikes keep occurring across the ranch.

I get my biggest readings looking up.

It's coming from the sky.

The measurements lead us to a spot one mile high.

Ignition.

The team and I sent up rockets to try and identify the source.

-We got something. Hold on. -Look, look, look! -What is that?

That wasn't a plane. -Oh, there it is again! -There it is again!

-It's still in the same spot! -Right there.

Let's look at the surveillance footage

and see if there's something in it. There it is. We saw a UFO.

- And the fact we have...

...captured this on camera...

...is nothing short of historic.

There is a ranch in Northern Utah.

It is considered the epicenter

of the strangest and most disturbing phenomena on

animal mutilations,

bizarre UFO sightings

and unusual energies that have proven harmful to humans.

For 20 years, the federal government

tried to find answers and failed.

Now a new team of dedicated scientists,

researchers and experts has taken over.

They are determined to solve the mystery and reveal...

Gol' dang it, William.

What are you barking at?

So, William just woke me up.

It's, like,51 a.m. in the morning,

and he's barking like crazy,

and he took off running out across the field.

I'm gonna go see if I can see what it was.

All right, William, what are you barking at?

For the past few days,

I've been staying overnight on the ranch.

That way, I can catch strange things as they're happening,

but I wasn't expecting those things to happen so soon.

Sounds like there's something

just screeching in the background.

I... I don't know what that is,

but I'm gonna go look on the spectrum analyzer

and see if maybe... maybe it's something on it.

Maybe... this sound

has something to do with the crazy microwave signals

we've been seeing.

Turn this computer on.

Um...

All right, let's turn this thing on.

What is that?

I'm not sure what I'm seeing.

Wow!

I mean, the-the... there's a signal oscillating up and down

between, like, 20-something meg...

26-ish megahertz

all the way up to two gigahertz.

This is crazy.

I'm getting a huge and constant level

of radio waves across the entire frequency spectral band.

It's like turning on a radio and having every single station

playing the exact same song at the exact same level.

Now, if I move it across, look at the signal.

It's extremely sinusoidal, and it has a lot of structure.

I've never seen anything like it.

It just keeps on going all the way across the spectrum.

Wow!

That's just insane.

I don't... I don't know what to think about this.

I've never seen anything like it in my life.

I called you guys here 'cause I wanted to talk to you about

what happened to me this morning.

You know, at, uh,51, William woke me up barking,

and I went outside to see if I could figure out

what he was barking at, and-and I hear off in the distance

this weird "wah, wah, wah."

So I figured I'd go in and look on the spectrum analyzer,

and I'm seeing all these signals, from the microwave band

all the way down past the ham bands at 35 megahertz.

Now, to do that, it would be...

I don't even know how we would do that.

That's... it's-it's almost impossible.

Since I've been here with the team

investigating Skinwalker Ranch,

a lot of strange and bizarre things

have been happening.

-Look, look. Did you see that? -What is that?

We've seen strange lights and glowing effects

coming off the mesa.

My head is hurting bad.

Well, let's get you the heck out of here, man.

We've had people suddenly getting lightheaded

or, in the case of Tom Winterton,

getting severe pain and swelling in their scalp.

Look-it, it's going nuts.

We've discovered that dangerous levels of transient radiation

are coming from an area about a mile above the ranch.

It's coming from up there.

And when we tried to investigate it

with a weather balloon, it just disappeared without a trace.

-Where the hell is it? -Oh, wow.

And then, just one week ago...

-Ignition. -...we launched a series

of rockets up into that same spot...

-Look, look, look. -What is that? -...and suddenly...

-There it is again! -...the entire team

witnessed two UFOs, clear as day.

It's gone.

So, here's one thing that it could possibly mean.

This might sound crazy, but what if the only way

to explain all these things is...

...with a wormhole?

Now, although the existence of wormholes

hasn't been proven yet, Albert Einstein theorized

that they do exist, and assuming you have

a massive amount of energy to cause one,

they could connect two different points

in space and time.

I know it's a far-fetched idea, but it's about the only thing

that I can think of that could be responsible for everything

that's been reported to have happened up here.

So, imagine you've got...

a bowl...

that's the Uinta Basin.

-Okay. -And it's roughly...

70 miles...

in diameter across, right?

Well, and it's gonna focus like this big satellite dish.

Whatever energy hits it, it's gonna be focused back up

to a single point.

So, what does that mean?

Is this the spot where something weird is happening,

where all this energy is being created

where there was events happening?

Are you thinking of this location

as-as a place where the energy is emanating from

or a place where it's being harvested?

That's a good question.

What if the Uinta Basin--

it's got jaggies and things in it--

it could be looking like a lens, and the source

could be beneath it, and it could be underground

from the center of the Earth coming up

and then being focused to a point.

But the point is, there is a bunch of energy

being focused into a single, tiny spot.

And the question is:

Is this crazy signal we're seeing...

doing that?

Is it creating some type of event

that is something like Einstein, you know, theor...

was theorizing, and then...

is like you see in science-fiction movies?

So, in other words, what we're saying is that

to us, standing here, this could look like an orb to us.

Or it could look like a portal to us.

We have all these crazy gamma and neutrons.

It could also create

some of the weird other RF signals that we're seeing.

That's a really good point.

-Yeah. -Yeah.

In 2016, I purchased Skinwalker Ranch

from Robert Bigelow.

Prior to transfer of ownership,

Bigelow cautioned me that we were dealing with forces

that are very powerful,

that are not easily understood or characterized.

There are amazing stories

claiming that one of the most interesting observations

made by not only Bigelow's team but others

is the presence of portals

that have appeared in the area of the homesteads.

Literally midair,

they've seen truly a window

into what appeared to be another world--

other skylines or other landscapes

that they could see through those portals

that-that are difficult to describe.

You realize how...

-outlandish this whole thing... -It sounds crazy and nuts.

Absolutely crazy and nuts, and this is the only theory

-we've come up with yet. -That encompasses all of...

That-that-that everything we've measured, heard, seen,

stories, craziness,

it all can be tied into this explanation.

But it's interesting that we've got at least a hypothesis.

Energy's coming from the Earth, and it's getting focused

-to a spot up there, but... -Yeah.

...a hypothesis isn't worth anything

unless you can create an experiment

to test that hypothesis.

So we understand the hypothesis.

I think we go and figure out if the energy source

may be coming from inside the Earth.

That's here under Skinwalker Ranch.

We should go and see if we can measure

these weird signals down there.

We need to do ground-penetrating radar.

We've got to do resistivity measurements out in the field.

Now, there's an experiment we could do.

Yeah. It gives us a place to start looking.

So maybe that's it.

Maybe the tremendous energy source

we would have to have to produce this portal effect

is located deep underground.

That would validate what Eric suspected all along.

All right, so I say we quit talking about it,

and then we get up and go start figuring out

-what we got to do to do it. -I agree.

-All right, let's do this. -Okay, cool. -Okay.

Because we don't know if the strange radiation surges

we've been getting are coming

from high above the ranch or below it,

we've invited a team of experts to come up here

and conduct a series of noninvasive tests.

-How's it going? -Good. How are you?

-Good. -That way,

if there really is something dangerous

or life-threatening underground,

we might be able to find out what it is

before we start digging.

We haven't done experiments yet to look beneath the surface. -Okay. -So, we've been doing

some measurements with these signals

that we've been picking up, and we've kind of triangulated a few hot spots,

and this is the starting line.

And anywhere there's a roadway,

flat surface along all the way from the gate on the east end

to the fence on the west end, just start mapping it out.

Then we'll go from there to the mesa,

and then maybe out into the field and around the homesteads.

Okay.

Since there is so much varied area

of Skinwalker Ranch to cover,

we decided to use two different methods

to search below the surface.

One is GPR, or ground-penetrating radar,

which works by sending radio waves down into the earth

that will bounce off of any solid objects or structures.

And soil resistivity,

which does pretty much the same thing,

but it uses metal stakes and wires

to send electrical currents down into the ground.

So, what we should do is kind of divide and conquer.

I think, uh, half of us will work

on the ground-penetrating radar, and the other half

will do the resistivity measurements.

Truck's right here, it's a good place to start.

So just pull the equipment out, and let's-let's just get going.

-All right, sounds good. -Let's get her out.

-Let's get to it. -Here on the ranch,

we have seen a correlation between digging activities

and some injuries to individuals.

So I've taken the position

that invasive activities like digging

should be first justified by less invasive methods.

Come on back. Ho, ho, ho.

A good example of that is the GPR survey

and the resistivity measurements.

Those are the kinds of things that put exercises like digging

or drilling on a more firm foundation.

Particularly in view of the fact that human safety

and life is held in the balance.

We've got everything loaded to do the resistivity measurements.

So, uh, why don't we take it over there, and you guys

are gonna continue with the GPR, right?

-Correct. -All right.

I gave them the flags. Mark the spots

if you find anything weird.

All right. Let's load up.

-Sounds good. -Let's roll.

I got shotgun.

So, guys, what we'll be doing now

is we're gonna be pulling this.

Uh, this is our GX160.

we're gonna be pulling it behind this ATV.

And we'll figure out a suitable way to pull that.

I think I've got an idea of how we can do it

-so it doesn't slide around. -Right.

Okay, and then we'll use the dual-frequency system

to do the homestead work.

-Sounds great. -Cool. All right.

What we're going to do is pull this latch up.

And then what we'll do here is we've got two power buttons.

We've got a power button on the monitor,

and we have one down here on the antenna,

and that will fire the system up.

Oh, my gosh.

This was fully charged, so I'm... it's-it's a mystery.

So, we can't start now?

We actually can't start with this system.

At least with the-the battery this low.

Why would it be down in the red now?

That's a good question, because it...

the system has to be on

in order for it to utilize those lithium-ion batteries.

Uh, why don't we check the other system?

It was completely powered, too, and let's just see

-what the batteries look like on that. -Yeah that's a good idea.

It's not uncommon that we experience problems

with battery-powered systems on this property.

Everything from mobile devices, including our cell phones,

our tablets, uh, laptop computers,

audio/video equipment,

have experienced some kind of an anomaly,

as a result of some influence that is prevalent on the ranch.

Dude, I will tell my phone battery just went...

--Your battery's dead on your phone?

Yeah. Your battery's dead, too, ain't it?

It shut off.

-Welcome to Skinwalker Ranch, right? -Right.

I completely charged these four batteries

last evening, and now they're into the...

to the yellow section.

When have you seen that before?

I, quite frankly, have not seen that before.

Hey, Bryant? Come here, check this out.

So, Phil, would you like to explain what you just...

Right, we were getting some highly unusual

battery level there.

Uh, we should be seeing full power there,

and we're seeing about 50%, so...

It's another damn battery that's getting trashed.

I guess we'll just keep an eye on it.

I guess you go until it goes off.

-All right. -Yep.

We've decided to proceed by dragging

one of the instruments behind the UTV.

So, what I did is I ran a wire underneath here,

attached to the body, to hold this tight.

-Looks very solid to me. -All right.

- Hey Erik. -Let's go drag this thing. -Yeah?

My phone's freaking out.

Just want you to see it.

-What is it doing? -I don't know.

It's just been... it's just been doing this

for the last, you know, couple minutes.

I just ran up here so you could see it.

It was in my contacts, it tried calling a couple of people,

um, and then it's been messing around in my camera

the last couple minutes.

-When did this start? -About two, three minutes ago.

It's as if someone was pushing the buttons

and, uh, switching between applications

and sending messages and making phone calls

as fast as anyone could possibly do it.

Dude, that is crazy.

We're laughing at it, but I'm not sure that we should be.

While Erik and Dragon are working with Phil Oviatt

to run GPR from the command center to the old homesteads,

Jim, Tom and I are heading out with Zach Zyla

to do a soil resistivity survey.

So, Zach, we're interested in this field out here.

There's some rumors and stories and myths

and all sorts of things.

There might be underground facilities

or bases or other stuff inside this field out here.

-Yep. -So, if there's something

besides a field in it, let us know.

All right.

All right, so what do we need to do to get started?

All right, well let's, uh, get the gear out of the truck and, uh, start laying out the lines.

All right.

All right, so what goes first?

So, every six feet, we're gonna

-place one of these into the ground. -All right.

And then you're gonna start.

And you're gonna want to pound it in

about three-quarters of the way

so we get good contact into the ground.

-All right. -Next,

you're gonna take one of these connector cables

and connect it to the base.

And we're gonna keep moving it along all the way to the end.

You know what, you drive stakes, I'll clip wires. How's that?

I could do that.

All right, so let me get started.

How quick will it take us to actually see something, Zach?

Hopefully, not more than about ten minutes.

Okay.

All right.

The line is hot,

so everyone please be careful.

It's about to start measuring, and hopefully

we can get some, uh, good data.

All right, well, good.

Uh, I guess we just wait.

Am I holding a speed that you like there?

-Yeah, you're good. -Okay.

It's gonna get a little bumpy here.

Yeah, I think it goes without saying

just be careful going through the dips.

Yeah.

That thing works like a champ.

It does.

Well, I'm anxious to get up by the homestead.

-Well, we're just about... -I know, I know,

we're getting close.

What was that?

I don't know.

Could be...

I don't know what that is.

I mean, we certainly see a difference

than this garbage we've been seeing the whole way.

-- Right. -- Yeah, yeah.

-That is unusual. -Yeah, it is.

So, as we're dragging the device behind us,

Phil noticed that there was a structure.

Could have been something mundane.

Could have something to do with the utilities on the property.

So, for Phil's benefit,

-you see that roof over there? -Yes.

Right in this grove of trees up on the left.

We call it Homestead Number Two.

Okay, got it, got it.

Now, uh, look at this right here.

Okay.

Whoa! I see that, I see that.

How do you interpret that... that feature?

Well, it looks like a dome feature.

Then we see another interesting anomaly

in the Homestead Two area,

and we don't know what the origin of those...

structures really is.

Look.

Oh, wow!

-What-what does this? -I cannot tell you

what's causing that. Man, it could be...

it could be something buried, you know, metal.

-Really? -Yes.

All right, let's halt the vehicle. I...

-Another dome, you think? -Another dome.

All right.

I'm looking laterally in the data,

-Uh-huh. -and it's been fairly consistent

-through this whole area, -Uh-huh.

except we've seen features at...

several different depths.

But you say it could just be

-a geological feature? -It could be,

but it-it... doesn't look like it to me.

It looks anomalous.

We'll see if we can duplicate that

-on the way back. -Okay.

It'll be interesting to have a look

-at all of these. -Sure. Okay.

-Every one of the patterns. -Okay.

You want to reshoot it all the way back?

-Right. Just to-to verify what we've seen. -Okay.

You know, I was really excited just to get any data at all.

You know, when we're talking about the possibility

of metal structure, of course it's very exciting.

But we need to go back in the other direction

to verify that we're not just seeing some artifact

but that what we're seeing is real.

So, right here is one of the domes we measured.

-Oh, yeah. -It's not quite as evident

as it was.

But you can sure see it.

And we had another one of those up here, too.

That's right.

-Okay. -Uh... yeah.

-There it comes. There it is. -You seeing it?

There it is. Oh, my gosh.

-That-that's exactly what we saw before. -Okay.

-Perfect. -Very distinct.

It's always exciting

when you have anomalous data and you go back and take it

a second time, and you get the same thing.

And that's exactly what we've seen.

We're seeing very interesting multilayer structures

at depths of anywhere from eight feet below the surface

to 24, 25 feet below the surface.

All right.

Stop right here, Erik.

-Interesting. -Oh, wow.

-I can see a couple of parallel features right here. -Uh-huh.

We saw this in both directions.

I-I mean, you may be seeing the top and the base

of a possible tunnel.

And it opens up as you move this direction.

So, we're looking at something quite large in here.

- Oh, wow. I hate to point it out, but, you know, this is exactly

where we were when we had the difficulty

with the drone survey.

-So, let's get going. -Yeah.

This is an area where we did try

drone thermography measurements,

but we were not successful,

due to some mysterious electromagnetic interference.

No connection.

We are in one of the most interesting

and notorious regions of the ranch.

This is Homestead Two.

I'm wondering if this is coincidence.

Clear as mud, Erik.

It's what this place is.

Here we go.

So, this is the raw data

plotted over, you know, a 2-D grid.

So, blues are going to be more conductive,

and reds are going to be more resistive.

More resistive might mean a hole.

Yep.

-So, that-that could be a cave? -Potentially.

We really need to post-process it,

um, and run it through an inversion

so that we can really say what's going on.

Once you do the post-processing,

-then we'll know more about it. -Yep.

ERIK Hey, Tom, you copy?

Yeah, go ahead.

Hey, we're getting some really interesting readings

out here at Homestead Two.

I'd like to ask you to just drop whatever you're doing

and bring some of Phil's extra gear out here

so we can take a closer look at it.

Okay, I'll grab the guys,

and we'll grab the equipment and head that way.

Copy.

- Okay, just leave this, and we'll just head over? - Yeah, we'll... I'll pack this in,

and you guys can head over now.

I don't know, man.

-It-it's... -Interesting area.

It's too much of a coincidence all the time.

Mm-hmm.

There they are.

That was quick.

See what they got.

-What's up, fellas? -Hey.

You said if you come across

anything in-interesting or intriguing,

we should call you.

-Yeah? You find something? -So, that's what we did, plus...

We-we found some dome features,

anywhere from eight to 25 feet,

that are almost parallel with this structure over here.

When you say "dome," are you talking a formation

-or an opening or what? -Yes, like a... like a...

It almost looked as though there was

the top of the... of a tunnel and the base of a tunnel.

-Oh, a tunnel? -Yes, and it's interesting

that it's parallel to this structure right here, as well.

That's why we called you guys.

We wanted you over here and... and to check this area out.

See if we can see any correlation.

Does it appear jagged, or does it appear smooth?

It's smooth.

So... so, we're-we're seeing

almost a domal-type feature, and then it pinches

into a... almost a point.

It looks more like

a hollow opening than anything.

What I would suggest is to... is to scan this area

with the wide range

and see if we see any correlation

between the... between this area

-and that area. -Yeah.

Well, let's get the equipment out and let's do it, right?

-Grab the wheels. -You got it? -I got it.

For a very long time,

there's been a lot of strange things

going on at Homestead Two.

And what I want to do is dig around the place

because I believe there's a possibility

that there's something unknown

under the ground that seems to be seeping up

or causing different...

causing different, uh, phenomena to happen.

-So, let's turn it on. -But there's been

a lot of pushback on digging on the property.

So, of course, with GPR, that gives us

an idea of what might be under there

without really disturbing the ground

and bringing up anything that might be toxic underneath.

Okay, we're ready.

Hey, Phil?

Sorry to interrupt you, but, I mean, I know

we want to get up on the mesa and do that.

I mean, we're getting late in the day,

and I want to make sure that we utilize all the time

we have with you gentlemen. Can we split up teams here?

-Like, Zach go with one of us and you go with one group? -Absolutely.

-Okay. -Yeah, Phil, why don't you go up to the mesa?

-Sounds good. -You guys okay with that?

-Yeah, I'm good with that... -All right.

...'cause I want to see what you guys have

-already seen here, so... -That makes sense.

-Let's take it and... and get it going. -All right.

Now that the wide-range system has been recharged,

Jim, Zach and I are going to run GPR scans at Homestead Two.

That's where a lot of very weird phenomena have been reported.

And while we're doing that,

the rest of the guys are going to run

some scans up on top of the mesa.

Erik loves this mesa.

I do, I guess.

Once I get to the top.

Well, so, guys,

what I think is, if you can get right there,

kind of hug the tree line and go due south

toward that dead tree...

I think we can go through over here.

Hug this bush right here the best you can.

The ground-penetrating radar device we're using

was more mobile, so we started pushing it through the woods

and around the homestead.

Just kind of use the house as a guide for the line.

And that allows us to do a much deeper investigation.

That's probably far enough.

-Yeah. -Did you see anything on that run?

Uh, let me check.

Oh, holy... Look at this.

Oh, wow.

There's this big...

Oh, wow.

That's crazy.

Did you see anything on that run?

Uh, let me check.

-Oh, holy... Look at this. See? -Oh, wow.

While conducting a ground-penetrating

radar test here at Homestead Two,

Jim, Zach and I have just found more evidence of some kind

of large object or structure buried several feet underground.

So, there's this big anomaly here.

-Oh, wow. -That's maybe

-at five feet, four feet? -Yeah, it's...

So, this is the structure, right?

But look there, right there.

It's like a-an entrance

or a pipe or something going up.

It's on the same line

as the well.

And who's to say it's really a well?

Heck, it could be a tunnel entrance, for all we know.

I'd like to know what's in this thing.

Don't lift it up.

-Why not? -Because the incident

that happened with Brandon Fugal was right here.

There was this guy that came in with him.

He lifted this up, and that's when he went catatonic.

Several years ago,

we were escorting some visitors on the site,

and when we entered the old homestead area,

we all piled out of the UTV

to circle around the front of one of the old homesteads.

And I looked around and found

that one of the visitors was absent.

As I circled around the back end of the homestead,

I saw this person

fully upright with his eyes closed.

-Hey! -And as I yelled his name

to somehow get his attention

and see what was happening, his eyes fluttered open.

He says, "Well, that was strange."

I said, "Well, what do you mean?"

He says, "I was paralyzed and then went to sleep.

How long have I been out?"

And I said, "Well, it's-it's probably

been about ten minutes."

He was shocked.

-And he did what now, Jim? -He lifted it up.

But I think, before you open that up

or do anything like that, I would definitely...

Or maybe not.

What the crap is that?

It's filled with something.

All right, well, look, if you want to look down in there.

It's just filled with crappy water.

I mean, muddy water or whatever. Maybe it's a septic tank.

Seriously polluted.

Well, it looks pretty bad.

It stinks, though. Ooh!

So, there's something in there.

You know, I don't know if I want to say it or not,

but I-I feel like a, I don't know,

I've got a little bit of a headache or something happening.

So, why-why don't we get out of here?

Maybe the smell, maybe some mildew

or mold or something here.

So, let's, uh, I say let's get back out

to the road where there's more air flow.

I started getting this headache and this nausea feeling.

I wasn't sure what it was, but I realized, you know,

I've got this dosimeter in my pocket.

All right, well, maybe we should

check our dosimeters or whatever.

Yeah.

Holy... Mine's beeping.

Your max dose rate's about 120?

Yeah, its 120-something.

That's pretty high. That's pretty high.

This is really scary.

My dosimeter device, which measures exposure

to ionizing radiation, is showing that I just got hit

with 120 millirads per second.

That's like getting 20,000

full-body X-ray scans at an airport,

which is five times more

than the legal limit allows in a year.

So, I just accumulated a semi-dangerous dose.

So, we're reading the exact same amount of rate,

but this thing accumulated more.

Well, and I was the one that stood over

-that hole when we opened it up. -Yep.

We were just exposed to ionizing radiation.

-Wow! -Now, I got to tell you that

-it's not a lethal dose. -It's not a lethal dose.

But it's an accumulated dose that you're not gonna see

out in the middle of nowhere, guaranteed.

Yep. And, well, and it's enough that they're saying,

"Hey, it's dangerous. Get out of that place

-and don't say in that place" -Yeah.

So we need to stop the GPR. Let's load the stuff up.

-All right. -Cool.

What happened at Homestead Two really shook me up.

And then, the next day, I noticed weird red marks

on my hand and my head.

I went to my doctor to get checked out,

and he confirmed they were radiation burns.

I'm okay now, but I'm really anxious to get

to the final results of our GPR scans to find out

if it's something in the ground that caused this.

Okay, we're here to, uh, discuss the processing

of the GPR data that we collected out in the field.

Uh, I took a look at all the data,

and I'm really gonna concentrate in and around Homestead Two.

So, that's what we're gonna be looking at on the screen today. - Okay. Well, let's see it.

All right, let's take a look at the data here.

See, here's where we started again from west going east.

-Right. -It's just noisy data.

And now were seeing these features in more detail.

-- Oh, wow! -- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Basically, looks like para... upside down parabolas.

Right, they're-they're hyperbolas.

Now, what creates the hyperbolas are objects.

A lot of things can cause those.

Uh, boulders can cause those types of features.

Tunneling can cause that type of feature.

Gosh, it goes all the way as far down

-as 25, 30 feet. -Right.

Well, it's clearly an anomaly.

Yes.

I'll tell you what it looks like to me.

Look at this.

Here's the top point.

Right there. Right?

Here's another point.

There's one here.

And then you could say maybe it kind of starts over here.

And so there's your connecting the dots.

Connect all these peaks,

and it looks to me like you got a football shape.

Well, give me a pen, then.

All right. Actually, tear me off

about three more pieces of paper.

So, there's the spot for the peak,

probably here, and down here on the bottom.

It's, like, here, here, here.

There's another one kind of down here, lower.

So now let's lay it on the table,

and we'll draw... we're gonna connect the dots.

All right. So, guys, if we look,

there's something that has...

surface points.

Something...

along those lines.

Wow.

I marked the high

and the low points of the parabolas

that we saw on the screen.

And once I connected all the dots,

the size and shape of the object we found underground

became clear-- it looked like a giant football

or a saucer.

-I like the shape of it. -And...

it's almost at the start of Homestead Two

to the end of Homestead Two.

This thing is...

a thousand feet long.

Wow. I wasn't expecting to see that today.

What this looks like is a two-story facility.

This thing is...

a thousand feet long.

That's huge.

That's significant.

We have a thousand-foot-long,

oval-shaped object

that appears to be buried underground at Homestead Two.

Now, this is the same place

where a lot of bizarre happenings

and even UFO sightings have been reported over the years.

So the question obviously is:

Are they related?

Right here...

that's "X" marks the spot.

That's-that's, like, 15 feet below the surface or something.

And we drill into that,

and we'll know, is it rock, is it metal, is it... whatever.

And so we got to... we got to dig there.

Or drill, at least, take a core sample.

Well, you're gonna have to get Brandon to sign off on that.

-Well, I-I understand that. -I-I always get painted as...

the guy that's the anti-digging guy,

and look, I'm interested to know what's there, too,

but at the end of the day,

that was one of Brandon's big mandates to me.

Looking at that interesting shape we found,

the knee-jerk reaction is we need to dig

and find out what that thing is.

It could be amazing or whatever.

My first reaction is, "Wait a minute."

We have radiation in the area, and we don't know what this is,

and you pile that on top of the whole "don't dig" lore

about this place.

I mean, Thomas had a major injury

that almost took his life.

Travis was exposed to radiation.

The last thing I'm gonna do is just say, "Hey, yeah,

"let's head out there and start digging up the road

and see what's down there."

I'm extremely sensitive to what's going on right now,

between what happened to you the other night

when we were camping again,

what Travis experienced.

Certainly, I don't see the data the same way you do.

I'd like to see what your opinion is.

-I think there's... -You're the professional in this.

-Right. I think, from what... -I don't have an opinion, Jim?

-Is that what this is? -I think,

from what I see here, I would absolutely see this

as being an anomalous area, is what I would say.

Just being... When you say "anomalous," different than

-the rest of the area. -Different than the rest

of the area, that we didn't see, or...

nine-tenths of the road that we went down.

Well, I think we take this to Brandon

and tell him the whole story, Dragon, and say...

You guys better take it, 'cause apparently,

because I'm not a PhD, I don't have a opinion

at the table.

Look, I care about you guys.

You know, I care about you.

If... if I didn't like you, I would just say,

"Fine, you know what, I'll be at the front gate.

You guys go dig. Just keep me the hell away from this..."

I'm sorry that I kind of blew up there a little bit,

but it's just because I'm sensitive,

especially now...

that all this stuff has started happening.

And I'm sorry, going back to your analogy,

I don't want to poke a hornets' nest

that has radioactive hornets come flying out.

-I already been stung once by it, right? -Yeah, I know.

To that point, if we're going down two feet and we're testing,

and two feet and we're testing, if that is the case,

-those levels are gonna be going up, and we can stop. -Absolutely.

-We'll see it every time. -And if Brandon

looks at the data and says, "Okay, I will sign off on this,"

you're good with it, then, Bryant?

-Is that what you're saying? -He's-he's my boss.

But I'm-I'm just trying to get a read

for where you are personally.

If he signs off on it, are you comfortable with it?

'Cause you're ultimately responsible...

Look, I... like I said, I just answer to him.

-No, but you're... -So, if that's what he wants to do, then...

You know, I had my points, those guys had their points.

You know, we weren't totally in agreement,

so it was time to get on the phone

and get Brandon up to speed

with what we found and get his take on things.

Zach, Phil, thank you so much for coming out.

-These are fantastic data. -Thank y'all.

-Thanks, guys. -Thank you. -Appreciate it.

All right, let's call Brandon

and let Brandon make the decision.

-Hey. -Hey, Brandon.

It's, uh, Bryant and Travis here.

Hey, guys.

What-what's happening out at Skinwalker Ranch?

We've got interesting things, and then we've got things

that... lend me to pause and...

have me concerned.

And I'll let Travis explain, you know, what we found

with-with the folks doing

the GPR, or ground-penetrating radar work.

Right in front of Homestead Two...

- Yeah.

there is an anomaly underground that ranges from about...

12 or 13 feet all the way down to 35 feet,

and it's kind of,

uh... I would say maybe football-shaped,

about a thousand-foot long.

- Wow.

If I were gonna say that there's any place on the ranch

where "X" marks the spot, it's right there

in the middle of the road right in front of Homestead Two.

- Okay. This is something that I did not expect. - That-that leads into the not so good news.

Travis and Dr. Segala

were exposed to a dose

of toxic radiation.

- What? - Yeah.

Well, I mean, I'm-I'm okay, uh,

and I've had my doctors talk to me about it and everything.

There's not-nothing to worry about.

- Yeah. I don't know if you guys can hear yourselves, right now?

- You just told me... - Yeah. It's crazy. -...that the ground- penetrating radar study...

...located a football -shaped object.

In tandem with that, we have Travis out there...

...getting hit with some type of radiation.

It sounds serious as hell to me.

Look, this is your property,

and, you know, I'm gonna defer to you,

because you're the boss.

So, what-what... How do you feel about it?

- There is no way that we proceed with any...

...major activity on that ranch...

...without making sure that we properly assess...

...the risks associated with it.

Yeah, I think we don't have to dig in a major excavation way.

What we do is take, like, auger core samples.

And so, you know, if something is a few inches in diameter,

we drill down until we get to that first layer

of what the boundary of this thing is...

- Yeah.

-...and we'll do, uh, safety measurements

every couple of feet to make sure it's not...

pulling back a toxic chemical or a... or something radioactive.

- I appreciate that. I think, uh...

...if that's the case...

...I would...

...you know, with great caution...

...move swiftly to find out...

...what we're dealing with here.

And I'm sorry, Dragon. But I feel like...

...I'm gonna put you in the awkward position...

...of making sure that proper precautions...

...and measures are taken to protect those...

...that are going to be involved with this effort.

Let's make sure that we avoid...

...at all costs...

...any further harm.

I agree with that.

- I don't think we have any choice...

...but to move urgently and find out...

...what is down there.

This could change the whole...

...trajectory of this investigation.

Or it could halt it in its tracks, Brandon.

- Well, let's proceed forward cautiously...

...but expeditiously to see...

...what really lies beneath...

...and keep me posted.

- All right. Thanks again for the time. -We'll talk to you soon. -All right.

- See you later, Brandon. -Take care.

We're always concerned about disturbing the earth,

because we've seen

in past history that bad things happen.

I do feel the weight of responsibility.

I wonder whether I have covered all the appropriate bases

prior to doing this unprecedented exploration on the property.

I'm as curious as anybody

to find out what the heck that big thing

in the ground by Homestead Two is,

but it really makes me take a step back,

because I don't want anybody to get hurt,

especially the people I care about.

Ground-penetrating radar said

there's something here under the road that's anomalous,

and the only way to get down there and look at it

is to dig a hole.

So that's exactly what we're gonna do.

-- Let's get to it. -- GPR has given us

an "'X' marks the spot."

They're hitting something hard now.

Man, they're on something.

There is an unnatural structure beneath this property.

-That whole thing's shaking. -Look at that.

-What is that? -Why is that rocking like that?

-- Oh! -- There we go.

I'm hoping that bringing in

an exotic animal on the ranch will stimulate

whatever is mutilating these cattle.

--The alpacas have been torn apart.

-What is that? -If that's a dog, it's a big dog.
