And that's when they put this mask over my face, and I 55 00:04:10,300 --> 00:04:11,700 just blacked out real quickly. 56 00:04:13,610 --> 00:04:18,709 The suspicion here was that actually these weren't different aliens. These 57 00:04:18,709 --> 00:04:24,230 the same aliens, but they were capable of shape -shifting into something else 58 00:04:24,230 --> 00:04:27,010 specifically to calm him down. 59 00:04:27,830 --> 00:04:32,730 Travis Walton's story has become one of the most famous alien abduction cases 60 00:04:32,730 --> 00:04:37,590 ever reported and was even adapted into a movie in 1993. 61 00:04:38,950 --> 00:04:40,430 But if true... 62 00:04:40,860 --> 00:04:44,960 Was he abducted by beings that are able to shapeshift and mimic humans? 63 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:51,460 While Travis Walton's account is extraordinary, it is not entirely 64 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:56,360 There are many stories of these abductees who see these non -human 65 00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:02,620 extraterrestrials, these grey, who then are replaced by beings that look human. 66 00:05:02,700 --> 00:05:06,900 And this seems to be extraterrestrials using this shapeshifting ability to make 67 00:05:06,900 --> 00:05:08,380 it look as though... 68 00:05:08,860 --> 00:05:10,540 Human extraterrestrials are there. 69 00:05:11,500 --> 00:05:18,380 In 2013, public policy polling released data that showed 12 million Americans 70 00:05:18,380 --> 00:05:21,420 believe that shape -shifting beings live amongst us. 71 00:05:22,340 --> 00:05:27,820 One of the most intriguing conspiracies today is that of the shape -shifting 72 00:05:27,820 --> 00:05:33,180 aliens. The idea that perhaps there is a class of entities on our world today 73 00:05:33,180 --> 00:05:37,040 that is able to represent itself as humans at will. 74 00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:42,560 these extraterrestrials that are hidden from the rest of the normal human 75 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:43,880 society around them. 76 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:53,220 There is a theory that there are aliens among us, aliens in human form, that 77 00:05:53,220 --> 00:05:58,320 there's an advanced guard, a fifth column, call it what you like, but the 78 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:04,520 that perhaps as a prelude to a full -scale alien invasion, they infiltrate. 79 00:06:04,840 --> 00:06:09,940 They get their people into positions of power, and one could be walking right 80 00:06:09,940 --> 00:06:13,980 past you and you wouldn't know. People think of disclosure as being the 81 00:06:13,980 --> 00:06:18,860 archetypal landing on the White House lawn, spaceships in the sky. 82 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:23,760 What if it's actually not that? What if aliens are already here? 83 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:29,820 While the notion that shape -shifting extraterrestrials are living among the 84 00:06:29,820 --> 00:06:35,070 human race may sound like something ripped from a science fiction movie, 85 00:06:35,070 --> 00:06:39,350 concept was actually prevalent among people living thousands of years ago. 86 00:06:40,450 --> 00:06:46,190 In ancient times, nearly every culture across the globe described their gods as 87 00:06:46,190 --> 00:06:51,670 not only descending from the sky, but also having the ability to transform 88 00:06:51,670 --> 00:06:52,670 appearance. 89 00:06:54,310 --> 00:06:59,490 Shapeshifting has shown up throughout history in shamanic lore, in the great 90 00:06:59,490 --> 00:07:01,570 religions, the Olympians in Greece. 91 00:07:02,280 --> 00:07:06,180 The Hindu gods would change shape. The Egyptian gods. 92 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:12,100 There's something about this idea that particularly the gods can change you to 93 00:07:12,100 --> 00:07:14,420 another person or become an animal. 94 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:21,320 These stories are not just here to entertain us. They are here to make 95 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,200 our relationship to the world and to the gods. 96 00:07:24,810 --> 00:07:30,270 And that is not a world that we have a lot of control over. And that ultimately 97 00:07:30,270 --> 00:07:34,630 is a terrifying thing. Because when they come down to our world, in whatever 98 00:07:34,630 --> 00:07:39,510 shape they take, we are subject to the whims of the God. 99 00:07:40,850 --> 00:07:45,850 Are tales of shape -shifting beings a mere manifestation of a deep -seated 100 00:07:45,850 --> 00:07:48,430 that we are not in control of our own reality? 101 00:07:50,170 --> 00:07:55,120 Curiously, a common element found in many of these ancient stories, is that 102 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:59,020 reason the gods changed shape was so that they could navigate the human world 103 00:07:59,020 --> 00:08:00,020 undetected. 104 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:07,420 In order to traffic in the human world, the gods have to take on a human shape 105 00:08:07,420 --> 00:08:09,080 or something that exists in the human world. 106 00:08:09,380 --> 00:08:15,240 Zeus, in particular, wants to have sexual relations with 107 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,160 human beings, with women. 108 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,340 Zeus takes the form of a bull, an especially beautiful bull. 109 00:08:22,750 --> 00:08:29,270 which attracts the interest of Europa, who was a Phoenician princess. 110 00:08:29,730 --> 00:08:33,890 In the Greek story, Europa climbs aboard this bull together. 111 00:08:35,179 --> 00:08:40,299 cross over the Mediterranean to the island of Crete. Zeus shapeshifts back 112 00:08:40,299 --> 00:08:43,240 himself as Zeus, the god, impregnates Europa. 113 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:49,180 So this is Zeus using shapeshifting as a way to attract a human female and 114 00:08:49,180 --> 00:08:52,920 ultimately to create a new island civilization in Crete. 115 00:08:53,380 --> 00:08:59,500 Zeus changes himself into a bull, changes himself into an eagle, changes 116 00:08:59,500 --> 00:09:04,140 into a golden rain shower for practical reasons. 117 00:09:05,050 --> 00:09:09,410 The gods need to disguise themselves because if they show up in the human 118 00:09:09,410 --> 00:09:13,210 undisguised, then it'll wreak havoc. 119 00:09:13,870 --> 00:09:18,770 And the limitation of our imagination is that they sort of look like us. They 120 00:09:18,770 --> 00:09:24,530 may not. We don't really know. They have to take a shape that our puny mortal 121 00:09:24,530 --> 00:09:26,490 minds are capable of comprehending. 122 00:09:27,550 --> 00:09:30,230 Throughout history, we have these stories. 123 00:09:30,970 --> 00:09:34,550 of ancient gods being able to shapeshift. 124 00:09:35,090 --> 00:09:40,950 So you have to ask the question, what is the core of truth behind those legends? 125 00:09:41,890 --> 00:09:46,890 Could there be some significance to the fact that in story after story, coming 126 00:09:46,890 --> 00:09:51,770 from all parts of the world, gods are said to change shape to interact with 127 00:09:51,770 --> 00:09:52,770 humans? 128 00:09:53,570 --> 00:09:57,930 Is it possible that at some point, the ancient people actually witnessed 129 00:09:57,930 --> 00:10:00,010 extraterrestrials changing shape? 130 00:10:00,910 --> 00:10:06,010 We have many stories in the past, legends and myths of shape -shifting 131 00:10:06,930 --> 00:10:12,290 The Greeks have many stories of this. The Hindus, Sumerians, all over the 132 00:10:12,290 --> 00:10:13,370 we have these stories. 133 00:10:13,630 --> 00:10:18,430 And you have to wonder if it might have something to do with shape -shifting 134 00:10:18,430 --> 00:10:24,610 extraterrestrials. The ancient astronaut theory tries to decipher misunderstood 135 00:10:24,610 --> 00:10:28,370 technology in mythological stories. 136 00:10:30,910 --> 00:10:37,750 idea of shape -shifting is rooted solidly in the concept of 137 00:10:37,750 --> 00:10:39,730 misunderstood technology. 138 00:10:40,830 --> 00:10:46,650 Actual flesh and blood extraterrestrials were able to change their appearance 139 00:10:46,650 --> 00:10:48,290 with technology. 140 00:10:49,010 --> 00:10:55,270 Perhaps they had an invisibility cloak, or they had a cloak with which they 141 00:10:55,270 --> 00:10:57,910 could change themselves into whatever they wanted. 142 00:10:58,490 --> 00:11:03,050 This was witnessed by the people, and this is how these stories came into 143 00:11:03,050 --> 00:11:04,050 existence. 144 00:11:04,390 --> 00:11:10,070 If extraterrestrials inspired the ancient stories of shape -shifting gods, 145 00:11:10,070 --> 00:11:16,110 ancient astronaut theorists suggest, were they here only in the distant past, 146 00:11:16,110 --> 00:11:18,870 have they remained with us for thousands of years? 147 00:11:19,730 --> 00:11:23,550 And what could be their reason for hiding among humans? 148 00:11:28,790 --> 00:11:32,230 Sulawesi, Indonesia, 1998. 149 00:11:35,350 --> 00:11:40,630 Here, hidden along the ocean floor, researchers discover a new and unusual 150 00:11:40,630 --> 00:11:43,030 creature, the mimic octopus. 151 00:11:43,850 --> 00:11:49,350 This highly intelligent cephalopod is capable of not only instantly changing 152 00:11:49,350 --> 00:11:54,570 color and skin texture, but it can also transform its body to take on the form 153 00:11:54,570 --> 00:11:55,850 of many other creatures. 154 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,020 The mimic octopus is remarkable. 155 00:12:00,220 --> 00:12:04,000 It's been known to mimic flounder, which are like flatfish, live on the bottom 156 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,000 of the ocean. 157 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,340 Sea snakes with the striping. 158 00:12:09,620 --> 00:12:12,960 And then also lionfish, remarkably, which have all these like feathery 159 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:17,520 appendages. It's been documented to essentially impersonate at least 15 160 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:18,520 different marine species. 161 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,560 With three hearts, nine brains. 162 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,580 and roughly double the number of genes of a human. 163 00:12:25,820 --> 00:12:30,780 Some scientists have speculated that the octopus may well be from another 164 00:12:30,780 --> 00:12:31,780 planet. 165 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:40,600 In 2018, a group of 33 scientists proclaimed in a peer -reviewed paper 166 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:45,480 octopus actually has alien DNA and might have originated elsewhere. 167 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,700 Now, when we think about that, you have to think, well, what might 168 00:12:49,700 --> 00:12:53,660 extraterrestrials actually be like? Could they be like the octopus? 169 00:12:53,940 --> 00:12:56,200 Could they in fact be shapeshifters? 170 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,960 We automatically assume that extraterrestrials might be humanoid, 171 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:01,960 might look like us. 172 00:13:02,020 --> 00:13:05,600 But the fact of the matter is that they could in fact be shapeshifters, able to 173 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,560 change their form into anything they want to be. 174 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,760 If the octopus is not indigenous to Earth, could that point to the 175 00:13:14,430 --> 00:13:18,470 that intelligent alien beings have also arrived here that have the biological 176 00:13:18,470 --> 00:13:20,190 ability to shapeshift. 177 00:13:21,550 --> 00:13:28,070 The evolution of things like crypsis or the ability to camouflage oneself on 178 00:13:28,070 --> 00:13:32,110 Earth, we know the selective pressure for that is primarily sort of predator 179 00:13:32,110 --> 00:13:33,110 -prey relationships. 180 00:13:34,370 --> 00:13:39,090 Crypsis is basically a trait to escape detection by a predator if you're an 181 00:13:39,090 --> 00:13:40,090 animal that gets eaten. 182 00:13:40,510 --> 00:13:44,150 or to escape detection by your prey if you happen to be a predator. 183 00:13:44,370 --> 00:13:50,290 I think selective pressure can certainly drive the evolution of crypsis on other 184 00:13:50,290 --> 00:13:51,290 planets as well. 185 00:13:52,170 --> 00:13:58,330 Given that shape -shifting has a clear evolutionary benefit, it's certainly 186 00:13:58,330 --> 00:13:59,990 possible that this... 187 00:14:00,220 --> 00:14:04,340 Capability evolves not just here on Earth, but elsewhere in the universe. 188 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,820 It's perfectly possible there's other life out there, including intelligent 189 00:14:08,820 --> 00:14:13,900 life, civilizations that have the capability to shape shift. 190 00:14:14,220 --> 00:14:21,180 We have to wonder if this technology is something that they just naturally have 191 00:14:21,180 --> 00:14:24,400 as part of their biological DNA. 192 00:14:25,470 --> 00:14:29,890 Or are they using some technology that's doing this for them? 193 00:14:30,830 --> 00:14:34,330 So it could be either and even a combination of both. 194 00:14:35,270 --> 00:14:40,710 In the animal kingdom, the ability to shapeshift has evolved to conceal both 195 00:14:40,710 --> 00:14:42,210 hunter and the hunted. 196 00:14:42,590 --> 00:14:48,030 But if shapeshifting extraterrestrials truly are hiding among us, did they 197 00:14:48,030 --> 00:14:50,050 evolve as prey or predators? 198 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,480 Karachi, Pakistan, 2016. 199 00:15:00,740 --> 00:15:06,100 A 25 -year -old mother of three is taken to a local physician after displaying 200 00:15:06,100 --> 00:15:07,940 increasingly bizarre behavior. 201 00:15:09,220 --> 00:15:14,780 She speaks in gibberish and complains of being plagued by disturbing visions and 202 00:15:14,780 --> 00:15:15,780 strange voices. 203 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:22,220 Her family claims she is possessed by supernatural beings known as the djinn. 204 00:15:24,230 --> 00:15:27,610 Jinn is an Arabic term that means to hide, to conceal. 205 00:15:28,190 --> 00:15:32,390 The Quran says that they are created of fire without smoke. 206 00:15:34,270 --> 00:15:35,350 Smokeless fire. 207 00:15:36,670 --> 00:15:39,810 It talks about the jinn being able to take animal form. 208 00:15:40,650 --> 00:15:44,690 It talks about the jinn being able to take the form of natural phenomena, the 209 00:15:44,690 --> 00:15:46,310 wind, for example. 210 00:15:47,870 --> 00:15:51,890 And so you will have people to this day in the Muslim world who will say that 211 00:15:51,890 --> 00:15:53,230 this person is possessed by jinn. 212 00:15:53,610 --> 00:15:57,510 that they're not physically ill, they're not mentally ill. 213 00:15:58,870 --> 00:16:03,910 The jinn were allegedly created before humankind by God. 214 00:16:04,310 --> 00:16:11,070 They can take any shape to beguile you and to tempt you, because 215 00:16:11,070 --> 00:16:15,850 part of their role is to test humanity. 216 00:16:20,570 --> 00:16:24,730 are reported frequently in certain parts of the world, and millions of people 217 00:16:24,730 --> 00:16:26,570 continue to believe in their existence. 218 00:16:27,930 --> 00:16:32,410 Similar shape -shifting beings can also be found in other ancient traditions, 219 00:16:32,690 --> 00:16:37,550 and are so common that modern mythologists have grouped them into a 220 00:16:37,550 --> 00:16:39,070 called trickster gods. 221 00:16:40,930 --> 00:16:44,250 The trickster is the god of transitions, of change. 222 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:49,500 They're not always fun to encounter because they pull the rug out from under 223 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,340 They're in charge of mischief and mayhem. 224 00:16:54,220 --> 00:16:59,320 In the North tradition, we have the trickster character known as Loki. Loki 225 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:03,940 shapeshifter. In some stories, he's a salmon, sometimes a fly. 226 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:06,520 According to Hindu mythology, 227 00:17:07,260 --> 00:17:09,099 Dhanavas are demons. 228 00:17:09,740 --> 00:17:14,140 So they have special power to change shape. 229 00:17:14,780 --> 00:17:21,560 to delude others, to confuse others, to appear in any form they 230 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:26,359 wish. We find this in the Celtic fairy lore as well, where the fairies are able 231 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:27,359 to shapeshift. 232 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,660 But in their deepest and darkest sense, they're seeking to extract something 233 00:17:31,660 --> 00:17:32,660 from humanity. 234 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:38,680 Some of these encounters that we hear about with shapeshifting beings may be 235 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:43,040 extraterrestrials. There's some good examples of this with the so -called 236 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:47,960 There's one incident where a large owl was seen that was about three foot high. 237 00:17:48,300 --> 00:17:52,600 And the witness just thought, this could not add up. And then suddenly it just 238 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,020 changed back into a grey. 239 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:55,240 Very strange. 240 00:17:56,860 --> 00:18:00,180 Deception runs through this whole phenomenon. 241 00:18:00,380 --> 00:18:06,940 The idea that the extraterrestrials are deceiving, seducing, tricking people. We 242 00:18:06,940 --> 00:18:07,940 see it in mythology. 243 00:18:08,700 --> 00:18:10,840 We see it in close encounters. 244 00:18:13,380 --> 00:18:17,880 Is it possible that accounts of shape -shifting beings, both in the remote 245 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:24,300 and in modern times, are not the product of overactive imaginations, but actual 246 00:18:24,300 --> 00:18:26,620 encounters with extraterrestrials? 247 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:31,260 But if so, do they have a sinister agenda? 248 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:36,480 Perhaps further clues can be found by examining stories not of gods. 249 00:18:39,660 --> 00:18:40,660 but of monsters. 250 00:18:47,980 --> 00:18:54,640 This picturesque Transylvanian town is the birthplace 251 00:18:54,640 --> 00:19:01,020 of Vlad Zepes, otherwise known as Vlad the Impaler or Vlad Dracula. 252 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:06,600 This infamous Romanian prince was known to drink the blood of his enemies. 253 00:19:07,310 --> 00:19:12,370 and inspired the title of Bram Stoker's 1897 vampire novel, Dracula. 254 00:19:14,310 --> 00:19:21,170 In 2014, a tourist visiting a local church came across a painting so strange 255 00:19:21,170 --> 00:19:25,930 that she sent a photo of it to the Israeli Extraterrestrials and UFOs 256 00:19:25,930 --> 00:19:26,930 Organization. 257 00:19:27,250 --> 00:19:32,290 In the hometown of Vlad the Impaler, upon whom the story of Dracula the 258 00:19:32,290 --> 00:19:35,870 is based, we find the Church of the Dominican Monastery. 259 00:19:36,940 --> 00:19:42,760 And in this church is a 700 -year -old painting that clearly portrays what most 260 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:48,060 would identify as a circular craft, a UFO hovering over a building that is 261 00:19:48,060 --> 00:19:49,100 thought to be the church. 262 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:56,020 We have this very strange jelly -mold -shaped saucer hovering over the 263 00:19:56,020 --> 00:20:01,300 home of the great figure that really has given rise to the idea of... 264 00:20:01,820 --> 00:20:03,160 Dracula, the vampire. 265 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:07,780 Now, is there a link here in some way with this vampire legend and 266 00:20:07,780 --> 00:20:13,580 extraterrestrials? Is it possible that a 700 -year -old painting in a church in 267 00:20:13,580 --> 00:20:18,120 Transylvania provides a connection between vampires and aliens? 268 00:20:18,700 --> 00:20:23,360 Could it be that the stories of these shape -shifting entities that are sent 269 00:20:23,360 --> 00:20:28,740 morph from human form into bats, wolves, and other creatures are based on real 270 00:20:28,740 --> 00:20:29,740 encounters? 271 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:35,360 While Bram Stoker's Dracula is a work of fiction, it is inspired by historical 272 00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:41,460 events. In the classic vampire story from Bram Stoker's Dracula of the late 273 00:20:41,460 --> 00:20:45,120 century, he did do some research into the Romanian traditions. 274 00:20:45,620 --> 00:20:50,360 As I say, they're very complicated and they tend to differ village from village 275 00:20:50,360 --> 00:20:57,120 even. So were there ever such things, paranormally speaking, as vampires? For 276 00:20:57,120 --> 00:20:58,120 a time... 277 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:04,860 15th, 16th, 17th, into the 18th century in certain parts of the world, vampires 278 00:21:04,860 --> 00:21:05,860 did exist. 279 00:21:10,020 --> 00:21:11,180 Gliwice, Poland. 280 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:14,920 2013. 281 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:23,120 During the construction of a roadway just outside this small town, a shocking 282 00:21:23,120 --> 00:21:24,220 discovery is made. 283 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:27,820 Workers unearth a burial ground. 284 00:21:28,190 --> 00:21:30,890 that provides a gruesome window into the past. 285 00:21:31,510 --> 00:21:36,070 It contains four skeletons, all decapitated. 286 00:21:37,110 --> 00:21:41,970 Recently in Poland, some graves were found that had unusual characteristics. 287 00:21:43,010 --> 00:21:47,510 The remains had the heads removed and placed on the legs. 288 00:21:48,170 --> 00:21:51,490 This was evidence of a ritual execution. 289 00:21:52,630 --> 00:21:56,090 Some theorists think these might have been suspected vampires. 290 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,680 Archaeologists estimate these burials date back to the 16th century. 291 00:22:03,060 --> 00:22:08,160 And according to the traditions that existed in Poland at that time, keeping 292 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:12,560 head separated from the body would prevent the undead from coming back to 293 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,320 Similar vampire graves have been found throughout Europe. 294 00:22:18,380 --> 00:22:22,640 Some even containing bodies with stakes driven through the heart. 295 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:30,400 When we think about vampires, we think of Bram Stoker's Dracula, or indeed 296 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,860 Hollywood portrayals of vampires. 297 00:22:33,620 --> 00:22:38,740 But for the peoples of Europe, particularly in Eastern Europe, the idea 298 00:22:38,740 --> 00:22:45,020 vampires was a very frightening and very real supernatural phenomena, which was 299 00:22:45,020 --> 00:22:50,700 something that they had to guard themselves against, because the vampires 300 00:22:50,700 --> 00:22:56,440 shapeshifters. And the most frightening thing about these was that they had to 301 00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:02,580 sustain their existence by drinking the blood of animals or human beings. 302 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:10,740 While the modern concept of the vampire was informed by European folklore, 303 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:15,520 similar shape -shifting beings with a thirst for blood have been reported 304 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:20,580 throughout the ancient world, like the raksashas described in the Sanskrit text 305 00:23:20,580 --> 00:23:21,580 of India. 306 00:23:22,700 --> 00:23:28,260 In the scriptures, Rakshasas have special power to change shape. 307 00:23:29,300 --> 00:23:31,980 Rakshasa is a flesh -eating demon. 308 00:23:32,180 --> 00:23:34,920 That Rakshasa loves to eat flesh. 309 00:23:36,780 --> 00:23:41,980 All across the globe, we have mythology that represents some kind of vampiric 310 00:23:41,980 --> 00:23:42,980 -type entities. 311 00:23:43,180 --> 00:23:45,600 There's the Edimu in the Sumerian texts. 312 00:23:45,900 --> 00:23:47,680 There's the Zhangshi in China. 313 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,560 All these classes of entities that seem to be in some way interested in human 314 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:57,480 blood. But is there a real root to this? Is there some kind of entity that's 315 00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:58,880 interested in human blood? 316 00:24:00,180 --> 00:24:04,100 Could these bloodthirsty abominations be more than just fantasy? 317 00:24:05,100 --> 00:24:10,520 As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, the centuries -old tales 318 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,480 vampires bear striking similarities to a very modern phenomenon. 319 00:24:18,230 --> 00:24:24,690 When we talk about vampire experiences, we break them down into there is the 320 00:24:24,690 --> 00:24:30,410 sighting, then there is the trapping of one's own mind, and the luring of the 321 00:24:30,410 --> 00:24:31,690 person into the vampire. 322 00:24:33,510 --> 00:24:36,590 But alien abductions are exactly the same way. 323 00:24:39,770 --> 00:24:43,050 Abductees report they are transfixed by a light. 324 00:24:43,450 --> 00:24:49,190 A figure approaches them, the figure engages with them, and the figure takes 325 00:24:49,190 --> 00:24:50,190 them away. 326 00:24:51,250 --> 00:24:56,330 Central to alien abductions is the idea of some sort of medical procedure. 327 00:24:57,010 --> 00:25:02,870 Some people say that DNA is taken, but in other cases, blood seems to have been 328 00:25:02,870 --> 00:25:08,030 removed. Very often, the person is immobilized in these abduction reports. 329 00:25:08,310 --> 00:25:13,000 And yet, when you look at the Vedic text, the Chinese legends, the European 330 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:18,900 legends. One can draw these links between vampires and UFOs and 331 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:26,520 We have a very strong connection between vampires and extraterrestrials. But is 332 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:31,620 it possible that extraterrestrials somehow need our blood? 333 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:38,440 If stories of vampires have been inspired by extraterrestrial encounters, 334 00:25:39,230 --> 00:25:44,470 As ancient astronaut theorists suggest, might they reveal that blood plays an 335 00:25:44,470 --> 00:25:47,070 essential role in the ability to shape ship? 336 00:25:47,450 --> 00:25:52,750 Perhaps further clues can be found by examining humanity's own efforts to 337 00:25:52,750 --> 00:25:56,770 transform life on Earth through the manipulation of DNA. 338 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:14,500 Archaeologists excavating a stone -age settlement known as Starkar make an 339 00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:15,680 extraordinary discovery. 340 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:22,200 Under layers of dense peat, they uncover a ritualistic headdress that is 11 ,000 341 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:26,440 years old, one that would have been worn by a shaman or priest. 342 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:32,940 As long as there's been people, there's been the idea that certain people, 343 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:37,040 certain special people, can shift their shape. 344 00:26:37,790 --> 00:26:43,790 And the priests of the ancient magical world, the shamans, allegedly had the 345 00:26:43,790 --> 00:26:47,910 ability to shift their shape into an animal. 346 00:26:49,670 --> 00:26:54,890 Curiously, in recent years, the site and its surrounding region have become 347 00:26:54,890 --> 00:27:01,830 renowned for reports of a horrific shapeshifter known as the Flixton 348 00:27:03,020 --> 00:27:08,580 A number of very odd experiences have been occurring there over the last 50 349 00:27:08,580 --> 00:27:15,260 years or so. These include the appearance of a strange biped with 350 00:27:15,260 --> 00:27:17,460 canine or wolf -like head. 351 00:27:18,820 --> 00:27:22,160 In other words, half wolf, half human. 352 00:27:22,990 --> 00:27:27,810 And in addition to this, there have been many strange sightings of mysterious 353 00:27:27,810 --> 00:27:32,690 light forms and structured craft, UFOs, in the same vicinity. 354 00:27:34,030 --> 00:27:39,830 We have UFO activity and what would be werewolf activity in Europe, 355 00:27:40,030 --> 00:27:46,310 particularly in Yorkshire. And so we have to wonder, is there some connection 356 00:27:46,310 --> 00:27:50,170 between UFO activity and these shapeshifters? 357 00:27:50,390 --> 00:27:51,430 It would seem so. 358 00:27:52,820 --> 00:27:58,440 In 2016, nearly a dozen sightings of the Bligston werewolf were reported in the 359 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:02,100 nearby town of Hull, just 50 miles south of Starcar. 360 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,800 Witnesses claim to have seen the creature feasting on the blood and flesh 361 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,960 local dogs, leaving residents gripped by terror. 362 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:18,560 For the peoples of Europe in the past, this was a very real threat. 363 00:28:19,340 --> 00:28:23,760 It was believed that there were certain individuals that could transform 364 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:30,500 themselves, shapeshift into a particular animal, most obviously a wolf. And 365 00:28:30,500 --> 00:28:36,140 whilst these individuals were in the form of a werewolf, it was believed that 366 00:28:36,140 --> 00:28:42,520 sustain their existence, they had to have the blood and life force of 367 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,300 either animals or human beings. 368 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:55,760 Among the many stories of shapeshifting beings, from vampires to werewolves, and 369 00:28:55,760 --> 00:29:01,360 even modern alien abduction accounts, a recurring theme is the need for blood. 370 00:29:02,180 --> 00:29:07,680 And as far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, it's very 371 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,680 these beings need something contained within the blood in order to shapeshift. 372 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:14,240 DNA. 373 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,820 Now, could it be that in some way this shape -shifting ability could be 374 00:29:19,820 --> 00:29:25,940 harnessed by blending of the genes of a species to just morph into whatever you 375 00:29:25,940 --> 00:29:28,020 need to look like instantaneously? 376 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:35,920 The priority is genetic harvesting because they can mix and match genes at 377 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:42,300 sophisticated level and can make any body container that they want. 378 00:29:43,340 --> 00:29:45,680 and then they can use it as camouflage. 379 00:29:46,820 --> 00:29:53,260 And so one of our greatest questions is, who walks around on our planet, looks 380 00:29:53,260 --> 00:29:54,940 human, but is not? 381 00:29:56,340 --> 00:30:02,880 If there really are alien shapeshifters here on Earth, might they require DNA in 382 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,200 order to mimic a human or animal form? 383 00:30:06,540 --> 00:30:12,300 Over the past 30 years, advances in gene -splicing technology have allowed 384 00:30:12,300 --> 00:30:16,430 humanity, to begin experimenting with cloning and transforming earthly 385 00:30:16,430 --> 00:30:17,430 creatures. 386 00:30:19,710 --> 00:30:25,870 In 2019, researchers in China announced they had created the first hybrid 387 00:30:25,870 --> 00:30:28,970 embryos that are part human and part monkey. 388 00:30:29,910 --> 00:30:35,090 Similar experiments have been done around the world, crossing human DNA 389 00:30:35,090 --> 00:30:38,790 pigs, sheep, and soon, mice and rats. 390 00:30:41,870 --> 00:30:46,630 We are seeing modern technology able to create these kinds of cross species. 391 00:30:46,990 --> 00:30:51,710 So what geneticists are able to do is actually clip pieces of a DNA strand, 392 00:30:51,850 --> 00:30:56,690 insert a new strand in to complete the sequence, and then put that back into a 393 00:30:56,690 --> 00:31:02,450 cell. When it's able to grow and become an embryo and then grow into a full 394 00:31:02,450 --> 00:31:05,490 being, it has this different DNA sequence in it. 395 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:10,100 When you think about what we already know about gene editing, first of all, 396 00:31:10,100 --> 00:31:11,320 know the technology is possible. 397 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,620 So it is certainly well within the realm of possibility that an advanced 398 00:31:15,620 --> 00:31:20,020 civilization, an alien civilization, would have skills in gene editing far 399 00:31:20,020 --> 00:31:23,880 surpassing what we have now and could really do things that are actually 400 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,780 unimaginable and outside the scope of what we're thinking. 401 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,800 Could it be that the genetic modification that scientists are now 402 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:39,940 achieve in a laboratory were perfected thousands of years ago by 403 00:31:39,940 --> 00:31:45,920 extraterrestrials? For ancient astronaut theorists, this possibility raises 404 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:47,640 another intriguing question. 405 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:52,660 Could they similarly alter the DNA of humans? 406 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:04,120 The southwest region of France is home to some of the earliest examples of 407 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,000 prehistoric art ever discovered. 408 00:32:06,340 --> 00:32:12,960 The caves of Lascaux, Neo, and Pachmel all contain rock paintings 409 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,860 that date back more than 15 ,000 years. 410 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,440 But among the ancient cave art, one image stands apart. 411 00:32:22,340 --> 00:32:27,320 Tucked inside the Trois Frères cave is the depiction of a mysterious figure 412 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,500 known simply as the sorcerer. 413 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:36,040 In the south of France, a cave was discovered with an image believed to be 414 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:41,920 something like 15 ,000 years old. This might be the very earliest image we have 415 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:42,920 of a deity. 416 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:48,520 It's a stag, but it's human inside, so it seems to depict a shamanic ritual 417 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,680 leader channeling animal powers. 418 00:32:52,860 --> 00:32:55,780 It has the body of a deer. 419 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:57,640 It has the eyes. 420 00:32:58,220 --> 00:33:05,120 of a owl it has the tail possibly of a horse but it's quite clearly standing on 421 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:11,860 human legs and has human -like arms and although it's been interpreted perhaps 422 00:33:11,860 --> 00:33:13,600 as the first god 423 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:21,200 More likely is that it represents a shaman who has transformed into 424 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:28,140 one or more animals to move through the supernatural realms that the shaman 425 00:33:28,140 --> 00:33:29,840 is thought to have taken. 426 00:33:31,900 --> 00:33:37,380 While there is no written record to definitively identify cave art from 15 427 00:33:37,380 --> 00:33:40,740 years ago, in the American Southwest... 428 00:33:41,020 --> 00:33:45,380 The notion of shamans transforming themselves into shapeshifters is still 429 00:33:45,380 --> 00:33:46,380 prevalent today. 430 00:33:51,900 --> 00:33:56,360 Skinwalker Ranch, Uinta Basin, Utah. 431 00:33:58,220 --> 00:34:03,800 This 500 -acre expanse has been plagued by reports of strange phenomena for 432 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:04,800 decades. 433 00:34:05,420 --> 00:34:10,570 Phenomena. that include both UFO sightings and accounts of a shape 434 00:34:10,570 --> 00:34:11,570 monster. 435 00:34:13,010 --> 00:34:18,710 Any paranormal activity that you can imagine has happened, allegedly, at the 436 00:34:18,710 --> 00:34:19,790 Skinwalker Ranch. 437 00:34:20,510 --> 00:34:26,710 You've seen UFOs. They have seen different creatures. They have seen 438 00:34:26,710 --> 00:34:28,550 things happening up in the sky. 439 00:34:30,750 --> 00:34:36,120 There's a history that not only goes back over the past hundred years, But 440 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:41,179 the past 1 ,000 years of activity happening in that area, some of which is 441 00:34:41,179 --> 00:34:48,040 connected to Navajo legends, tales of shapeshifters called skinwalkers have 442 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,219 existed since time immemorial. 443 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:59,300 In the oral traditions of both the local Navajo and Ute populations, the 444 00:34:59,300 --> 00:35:03,400 shapeshifter for which Skinwalker Ranch is named has inhabited the area for 445 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:04,400 centuries. 446 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,620 But the story behind this creature is different from that of other 447 00:35:09,620 --> 00:35:10,620 shapeshifters. 448 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:16,620 According to the Navajo, the skinwalker is a human who has attained the ability 449 00:35:16,620 --> 00:35:18,460 to transform his body. 450 00:35:19,820 --> 00:35:26,160 A skinwalker is the name that is given to a Navajo 451 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:31,340 shaman or witch when they are in a supernatural form. 452 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,780 Very often a skinwalker... 453 00:35:34,170 --> 00:35:37,670 will be a wolf, but it can be other animals as well. 454 00:35:38,110 --> 00:35:44,690 The native tradition concerning skinwalkers is that these are actual 455 00:35:44,690 --> 00:35:47,870 have gained a certain type of power. 456 00:35:48,130 --> 00:35:53,410 They were given certain abilities, shape -changing and magic. 457 00:35:55,730 --> 00:36:00,270 When it comes to how the skinwalker is able to change shape, the Navajo. 458 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:05,360 have a similar notion to that of ancient astronaut theorists. They believe it is 459 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:06,720 connected to DNA. 460 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:15,180 Our view on it is that they're manipulating the DNA of their own body. 461 00:36:15,180 --> 00:36:19,900 change shape. And it's usually an animal that they have the skin for. 462 00:36:20,140 --> 00:36:26,280 And they'll use the skin and with a combination of chance can actually turn 463 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,340 that animal. And interestingly enough, 464 00:36:29,780 --> 00:36:35,440 In Navajo tradition, you are taught early on as a child, you don't leave 465 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:39,860 fingernail clippings, you don't spit on the ground and not cover it up. All of 466 00:36:39,860 --> 00:36:42,640 this has to do with the transmission of DNA. 467 00:36:46,420 --> 00:36:52,360 If extraterrestrials are harvesting DNA in order to shapeshift, as some ancient 468 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:57,200 astronaut theorists suggest, is it possible that they could also bestow 469 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:58,700 with this same ability? 470 00:36:59,850 --> 00:37:03,210 And might the skinwalker be evidence of alien intervention? 471 00:37:03,950 --> 00:37:09,590 While it may sound far -fetched, former Navajo police officer Jonathan Dover is 472 00:37:09,590 --> 00:37:12,750 certain that the being called the skinwalker is real. 473 00:37:13,550 --> 00:37:16,790 I spent 31 years in law enforcement. 474 00:37:17,750 --> 00:37:22,770 We've had many, many incidences where people have seen them chasing their 475 00:37:22,770 --> 00:37:27,530 vehicle as their vehicles were traveling at 60, 65 miles an hour. 476 00:37:28,490 --> 00:37:31,150 and having a human figure running behind you. 477 00:37:33,170 --> 00:37:39,650 I've had police officers arrest people and had them in handcuffs. They get to 478 00:37:39,650 --> 00:37:43,010 the station, they hadn't stopped anywhere, and the person is gone. 479 00:37:44,450 --> 00:37:48,310 Whether we have an alien present, we don't know for sure. 480 00:37:49,010 --> 00:37:53,950 But there's enough information there that I would say don't take it lightly 481 00:37:53,950 --> 00:37:55,610 because it's a different culture. 482 00:37:56,940 --> 00:38:02,000 Is the strange figure that was depicted on a cave wall in France 15 ,000 years 483 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,800 ago alive and well in the American Southwest? 484 00:38:07,720 --> 00:38:12,900 Have there always been shapeshifters among us, both alien and human? 485 00:38:14,060 --> 00:38:19,160 And is it possible that new scientific developments are leading towards a 486 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,560 in which we could become the shapeshifters? 487 00:38:31,470 --> 00:38:35,090 Harvard University, October 2019. 488 00:38:37,330 --> 00:38:42,350 Scientists developing shape -shifting technology announced their latest and 489 00:38:42,350 --> 00:38:43,430 incredible creation. 490 00:38:44,650 --> 00:38:48,930 Lattices that can transform in response to changes in temperature. 491 00:38:49,890 --> 00:38:55,250 When researchers demonstrate the material's remarkable metamorphosis, as 492 00:38:55,250 --> 00:39:00,560 magic, The flat mesh morphs into a three -dimensional face of 19th century 493 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,160 mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss. 494 00:39:04,540 --> 00:39:09,080 This has been used to take a flat sort of structure and turn it to look like a 495 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,360 human face or other interesting sort of three -dimensional shape. 496 00:39:13,940 --> 00:39:18,120 When you talk about shape -shifting technology, what you're seeing right now 497 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:22,100 our ability to control materials is really at a transformative point. 498 00:39:23,340 --> 00:39:28,620 In the near future, Shapeshifting materials like this could be utilized in 499 00:39:28,620 --> 00:39:33,740 ways, from constructing smart fabrics and self -repairing electronics to 500 00:39:33,740 --> 00:39:38,260 ushering in the next generation of robotics and high -tech medical 501 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:44,300 But ancient astronaut theorists see an even more profound possibility that 502 00:39:44,300 --> 00:39:49,780 advancements, combined with our growing understanding of DNA manipulation, will 503 00:39:49,780 --> 00:39:54,040 unlock the potential for humans to harness the power of shapeshifting. 504 00:39:56,430 --> 00:40:00,450 In science fiction, one of the great ideas was the idea of being able to 505 00:40:00,450 --> 00:40:05,730 -shift, to change the color of your skin or to change your form, to turn into 506 00:40:05,730 --> 00:40:06,669 something else. 507 00:40:06,670 --> 00:40:09,610 And now high -tech companies are actually working on this today. 508 00:40:10,150 --> 00:40:15,490 In nature, we see animals that can suddenly shift colors, change their 509 00:40:15,690 --> 00:40:20,510 Could it be that in some way this ability could be harnessed and used in 510 00:40:20,510 --> 00:40:21,510 technologies? 511 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:27,000 We're perhaps seeing even a cybernetic blending of the genes of a species like 512 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:31,520 this with the technology, allowing us to have these rapid shape shifts to just 513 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,900 morph into whatever you need to look like instantaneously. 514 00:40:36,380 --> 00:40:40,720 Human technology is advancing here by leaps and bounds. 515 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:47,360 By all accounts, we already have pretty much optical... 516 00:40:47,770 --> 00:40:52,530 invisibility or certainly camouflage so good that it it's almost 517 00:40:52,530 --> 00:40:56,970 indistinguishable i mean some of this is of course so classified we won't get to 518 00:40:56,970 --> 00:41:02,930 hear about it for years but but if you reading hints about it here and there 519 00:41:02,930 --> 00:41:09,850 can bet that it already exists we now have technology that is equal to 520 00:41:09,850 --> 00:41:15,890 what we see that god's using in these ancient stories and now we're faced with 521 00:41:15,890 --> 00:41:16,970 new reality. 522 00:41:17,630 --> 00:41:22,190 What if suddenly we realize that there are thousands, hundreds of thousands, 523 00:41:22,230 --> 00:41:25,930 maybe millions of extraterrestrials that are walking amongst us, and suddenly 524 00:41:25,930 --> 00:41:28,590 they reveal themselves for their true appearance? 525 00:41:30,930 --> 00:41:35,910 As humanity begins to harness the extraordinary abilities that ancient 526 00:41:35,910 --> 00:41:41,150 associated with the gods, will we awaken to an incredible new reality? 527 00:41:41,930 --> 00:41:47,130 One in which we will not only achieve the power to shapeshift, but in the 528 00:41:47,130 --> 00:41:51,870 process, we'll discover that humans are not the only intelligent species on 529 00:41:51,870 --> 00:41:52,870 Earth. 530 00:41:53,210 --> 00:41:58,590 Perhaps a reunion with our alien ancestors will only happen when we are 531 00:41:58,590 --> 00:42:04,810 able to open our eyes and see that they are all around us. 48907
