IT WAS RIGHT OUT OF A HORROR MOVIE.

THE WINGS MUST HAVE BEEN MORE THAN 25 FEET.

THERE ARE CREATURES SCIENCE REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE.

BUT NEW TECHNOLOGY MAKES US QUESTION WHAT IS REAL.

- COME ON! - WHOA!

ENTER A REALM WHERE FACT MEETS FICTION...

LEAVE ME ALONE!

...SCIENCE MEETS LEGEND.

LOOK OUT!

OH, MY GOD!

BOO!

AAH.

WATCH OUT, MAN. IT WAS JUST A JOKE.

HEY, DUDE, LET'S DO A REPLAY.

IT'S NOT FUNNY.

I'M GONNA GET YOU GUYS BACK. I'M GONNA GET YOU GUYS BACK.

- WOW, MAN. - OH, YOU GOT THE CAMERA.

OH, MAN. LOOK AT IT.

BE CAREFUL WITH IT, MAN.

IF MY PARENTS FIND OUT I TOOK IT, THEY'RE GONNA KILL ME.

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.

IT'S COOL, IT'S COOL.

IT'S STILL TIGHT, THOUGH.

ON NOVEMBER 16, 2007, KEVIN WELLER

AND HIS YOUNGER BROTHER, COLE, SNUCK OUT OF THEIR SUBURBAN HOME

TO MEET UP WITH THEIR FRIEND PAXTON REED.

THEY TOOK THEIR PARENTS' VIDEO CAMERA,

PLANNING TO MAKE A SKATEBOARDING VIDEO OF THEMSELVES.

THE BOYS NEVER COULD HAVE ANTICIPATED

THAT THIS RELATIVELY HARMLESS ACT

WOULD HAVE SUCH TERRIFYING CONSEQUENCES.

OH, WAIT, HOLD ON.

HE'S COMING?

- YEAH. - NO WAY, MAN.

IT'S JUST SUPPOSED TO BE US TWO COMING.

IF WE'RE GONNA MAKE THIS VIDEO,

WE GOT TO TAKE MY LITTLE BRO, MAN. HE GOT MAD SKILLS.

- NAH, MAN. - WE'RE GOING TO THE DITCH.

THE DITCH?

- MAN, HE'S SCARED. - HE'S NOT SCARED.

HE'S-- HE'S A LITTLE KID.

MAN, I WENT THERE AS A LITTLE KID.

I WASN'T EVEN SCARED.

WELL, 'CAUSE YOU'RE PAXTON.

YOU'RE NOT SCARED OF ANYTHING.

IT'S GONNA BE ALL RIGHT, MAN.

I GOT YOUR BACK.

YOU'RE WATCHING OVER HIM, OKAY? NOT ME.

YOU AIN'T GOT NO PROBLEM WITH HIM BUGGING YOU.

LET'S GO, LET'S GO. COME ON, COME ON.

LOOK, LOOK, LOOK, LOOK, LOOK, LOOK.

HOLD THIS. HOLD THIS. HOLD THIS, AND I GO THROUGH.

ALL RIGHT, COME ON, MAN. GET THROUGH.

- IN THE FENCE, MAN. - YEAH.

THIS IS GONNA BE SO TIGHT.

OH, WHAT'S WRONG, MAN?

MAYBE I SHOULD JUST GO HOME.

- NO, MAN. - OH, NO, LOOK BEHIND YOU.

LOOK BEHIND YOU.

OHH! OH! OH, MY GOSH.

HE WAS JUST PLAYING WITH YOU, MAN. COME ON.

OH, MAN.

LET'S HAVE A FUN TIME.

RELUCTANTLY, COLE FOLLOWED KEVIN AND PAXTON

AS THEY ENTERED A RESTRICTED FOREST AREA

ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF TOWN.

IT'S ALL RIGHT, MAN. WE'RE GONNA HAVE SOME FUN TIMES.

GONNA HAVE FUN.

YEAH!

MAN, I CAN'T WAIT TO GET UP THERE.

IT'S GONNA BE SO SICK!

WHAT YOU GONNA BUST OUT?

THAT HARSH ONE LIKE I DID ON THE DOWNTOWN BANKS.

WHAT YOU GONNA DO?

I'M GONNA DO A TREY FLIP REVERT, MAN.

- YOU SWEAR? - I SWEAR.

OH, MAN, I HOPE COLE DOES THAT KICKFLIP.

THAT'D BE SO SICK. - THAT WOULD BE SO TIGHT.

OH, ALL RIGHT, HERE IT IS, GUYS, RIGHT DOWN HERE.

DUDE, WE BEEN WALKING FOREVER. IT'S GETTING DARK.

HOW MUCH LONGER? - CHILL, MAN.

IT'S JUST UP HERE. RELAX.

DANG.

OH, MAN.

OKAY, GUYS. THE DITCH IS PAST THE OLD POWER PLANT.

LET'S GO.

WHERE'S COLE?

COLE, WHAT'S THE MATTER?

AW, THE LITTLE BABY SCARED OF THE DARK?

HUH?

YOU GONNA GO OFF TO CRY, HUH?

GONNA GO OFF TO CRY, LITTLE BABY?

NO, I'M GONNA GO PEE.

COME ON, MAN. STOP MESSING WITH HIM.

- LET'S GO. - FORGET HIM.

MAN, HE'S SO SCARED. - I KNOW.

MAN, WE SHOULDN'T HAVE BROUGHT HIM.

IT SHOULD HAVE JUST BEEN US TWO.

THAT'D HAVE BEEN SO MUCH BETTER.

OH!

OH, MY GOD!

WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT?

I DO NOT KNOW.

CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THAT WAS?

I KNOW-- I KNOW IT'S A BIRD.

NO, THAT'S NOT A BIRD, MAN.

THAT'S-- I DON'T KNOW.

THAT'S NOT-- THAT'S SOMETHING ELSE, MAN.

DUDE, IT'S COMING BACK.

I KNOW. I KNOW IT'S NOT A BIRD.

- OH, MY GOD. - IT MIGHT COME AND GET US.

NO, DON'T WORRY.

JUST STAY DOWN.

YOU HEAR IT AGAIN?

OH, MY GOD, IT'S COMING CLOSER.

- ARE YOU SERIOUS? - DID YOU SEE THAT BIRD, MAN?

- IT WAS SO CRAZY, DUDE. - IT WAS GIGANTIC.

WE'RE SO SERIOUS RIGHT NOW. JUST RIGHT ABOVE US.

WE HAD TO DUCK DOWN.

IF YOU GUYS ARE TRYING TO SCARE ME, I'M REALLY NOT SCARED.

NO, WE'RE TELLING THE TRUTH.

IT ALMOST SWOOPED US UP. IT WAS SO CRAZY.

IT WAS JUST WHOOSH!

FOR REAL, MAN.

AW, YOU GUYS ARE GONNA CRY LIKE A BABY?

OH, MY GOD. BABY?

ARE YOU CRAZY?

HEY, GUYS, DOES IT FEEL LIKE IT'S RAINING OR SOMETHING?

I FEEL THAT, TOO.

WAIT.

OH, THAT'S BLOOD, DUDE.

OHH!

OH!

OH, MY GOD.

- WHAT HAPPENED TO IT? - WHAT IS THAT?

EW! THE EYE FELL OUT.

EW.

- HEY, STOP. - OH, MY GOD.

UGH. EW.

UGH, MAN. THAT'S DISGUSTING.

HEY, MAN.

WE NEED TO HURRY UP, 'CAUSE MY MOM AND DAD

MIGHT BE BACK ANYTIME NOW.

ALL RIGHT, MAN.

ALL RIGHT, MAN. LET'S GO.

MAN, THAT THING WAS DISGUSTING, MAN.

HOW'D IT GET UP THERE?

THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO KNOW.

DESPITE THEIR STRANGE ENCOUNTER IN THE WOODS,

WITH COLE FOLLOWING, PAXTON AND KEVIN

DECIDED TO CONTINUE ON TO THEIR DESTINATION.

ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THIS, PAXTON?

YEAH, MAN, IT'S COOL.

COME ON, COLE.

I'M SCARED.

IT'S ALL RIGHT, MAN.

I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS.

IT'S COOL.

I'M SCARED, TOO.

COME ON, BUDDY.

COME ON, COLE.

- OH! - THIS IS IT.

THIS IS THE DITCH.

DID YOU GUYS EVER HEAR ABOUT THE GHOST STORIES?

STORIES?

YEAH.

CRAZY STORIES, MAN.

ONE DAY, THESE KIDS WERE SKATING UP HERE, AND SOME KID JUST FELL.

HE SLIPPED OUT, WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN THE HILL,

AND DISAPPEARED IN THE DITCH.

- FOR REAL? - THEY WENT TO GO LOOK FOR HIM.

THEY COULDN'T EVEN FIND HIM.

SERIOUSLY?

LET'S GO UP THERE.

COME ON, COLE.

STAY CLOSE.

UGH!

WHAT WAS THAT?

PAXTON?

LET'S GO BACK, COME ON.

GRRR!

THAT'S PAYBACK FROM EARLIER!

MAN!

HOLD ON, I GOT TO GET THE CAMERA.

YEAH, MAN.

- DUDE, THIS IS SICK. - THIS IS IT.

MAN, W-- LET'S DO THIS.

HAVING ARRIVED AT THE DITCH

AFTER THEIR EXTENSIVE TREK THROUGH THE DEEP WOODS,

THE BOYS WERE RE-ENERGIZED, FINALLY ABLE TO DO

WHAT THEY HAD SET OUT TO-- FILM THEIR SKATEBOARDING VIDEO.

WHOO!

YEAH!

YEAH.

WHOO!

YEAH.

PRETTY GOOD FOR A BULLY!

BACK AT YA!

OH!

GUYS, LET'S GET THE LOWER DITCH.

ALL RIGHT.

HEY, KEVIN, I'M GONNA DO THAT TRICK

I TOLD YOU ABOUT AT THE HOUSE.

- FOR REAL? - YEAH, WATCH.

WATCH THIS, PAXTON. SOME SICK OLD-SCHOOL STUFF.

I GOT A GOOD IDEA. WATCH THIS.

WHAT YOU GONNA DO?

JUST WATCH.

MY LITTLE BROTHER'S GONNA DO SOMETHING SICK.

- RAAH! - AAH!

A PREHISTORIC MYSTERY SOLVED.

DISCOVER THE SURPRISING IDENTITY OF THE CREATURE THAT KILLED

A SMALL CHILD IN SOUTH AFRICA NEARLY 2 MILLION YEARS AGO.

THE FULL REVELATION...

NEXT.

IN 2006, SCIENTISTS WERE ABLE

TO CONCLUSIVELY DETERMINE THAT THE SO-CALLED TAUNG CHILD,

THE REMAINS OF AN EARLY HUMAN ANCESTOR,

WAS ACTUALLY KILLED BY AN EAGLE.

80 YEARS AFTER THE DISCOVERY

OF THE 3 1/2-YEAR-OLD CHILD'S REMAINS,

SCIENTISTS CONCLUDED THAT DISTINCTIVE MARKINGS

ON TOP OF THE CHILD'S SKULL AND IN THE EYE SOCKETS

MUST HAVE BEEN MADE BY A LARGE RAPTOR.

THIS NEW INFORMATION HAS QUIETED SOME SKEPTICS

WHO DOUBTED THAT A BIRD COULD BE STRONG ENOUGH TO LIFT A CHILD.

- RAAH! - AAH!

OH, MAN.

OH, MY GOD.

- MAN, ARE YOU SERIOUS? - AW, DUDE, MY BAD.

COLE, WHAT HAPPENED, MAN?

I THINK I BROKE MY LEG.

- CAN YOU WALK? - OH, MAN.

MAN, YOU BLEW IT, PAXTON. WHY YOU DO THAT?

MAN, I DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS GONNA GET HURT LIKE THAT.

GET THE CAMERA, PAXTON.

GET THE CAMERA! - COLE.

I KNEW THIS WAS GONNA HAPPEN, MAN.

DUDE, WE GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE. - OH, MY GOD, YOU OKAY?

DUDE, WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE, MAN,

BEFORE YOUR-- - JUST SHUT UP! SHUT UP!

UPON SEEING THE EXTENT OF COLE'S INJURIES,

KEVIN DETERMINED THAT HIS BROTHER

COULD NOT MOVE ON HIS OWN.

WE GOT TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO GET HIM OUT OF HERE, MAN.

ALL RIGHT, HOLD ON. LOOK...

MY DAD HAS SOME BOLT CUTTERS, AND HE HAS THIS WAGON, RIGHT?

WE CAN JUST GO BACK, GET THE BOLT CUTTERS AND THE WAGON,

AND THEN CUT THE GATE AND PUT HIM IN THE WAGON

AND GET HIM OUT OF HERE, MAN.

THAT'S A PERFECT PLAN.

YOU CAN'T LEAVE ME!

DUDE, COME ON, MAN. THAT'S A PERFECT PLAN.

WE GOT TO DO IT QUICK, BEFORE YOUR PARENTS GET HOME.

I PROMISE, WE'LL BE BACK, MAN. PROMISE YOU.

- I PROMISE. - I'M SORRY, COLE.

- COME ON, LET'S GO. - DON'T LEAVE ME!

KEVIN! KEVIN!

WE'LL BE BACK, COLE!

OH, MY GOSH, PAXTON. YOU DID THE STUPIDEST THING TODAY, MAN.

YOU DID A BONEHEAD PRANK.

I DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS GONNA GET HURT LIKE THAT.

HE'S NOT JUST HURT. HIS LEG IS BUSTED.

HE'S MORE THAN HURT.

WE GOT TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO GET HIM OUT OF HERE, MAN.

ALL RIGHT, HOLD ON. I GOT A PLAN.

HOW ABOUT JUST WHEN WE GO HOME, WHEN YOUR PARENTS GET HOME,

JUST TELL THEM THAT YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM,

YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE HE WENT.

- YOU SERIOUS? - YES, MAN.

YOU'RE BEING SELFISH RIGHT NOW.

WE CAN'T LEAVE MY LITTLE BROTHER IN THE WOODS

BY HIMSELF WITH A BROKEN LEG!

IF I GET IN TROUBLE ONE MORE TIME, IT'S OVER.

THIS AIN'T ABOUT YOU, THOUGH.

OH, NO! IT'S BACK, MAN.

- OH, MY GOD. - DUDE, WE GOT TO GET HOME.

THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT, DUDE.

COLE'S CALLING ME.

HELLO? COLE? COLE?

CALM DOWN. CALM DOWN.

COLE.

Kevin!

Kevin!

MAN, I HEARD HIM SCREAM, MAN.

WE GOT TO GET HIM. COME ON!

WE GOT TO GET HOME, MAN.

NO! WE GOT TO GET HIM.

DUDE, COME ON!

COLE, WE'RE BACK!

YOU ALL RIGHT?

COLE! COLE, MAN!

OH, MY GOD!

HIS SKATEBOARD.

OH!

YOU THINK HE CRAWLED HOME OR SOMETHING?

HOW CAN HE CRAWL HOME?

HIS LEG IS BROKEN.

MAN, I DON'T KNOW!

MAN! OH, MY GOD. GOD, WHERE IS HE?

COLE! COLE!

MAN, LET'S GO HOME, MAN.

THIS IS FREAKY, DAWG.

WE GOT TO FIND HIM, MAN.

YOU GO LOOK OVER THERE OR SOMETHING.

WE GOT TO FIND HIM, MAN.

COLE!

OH, MY GOD, WHERE IS HE?

- COLE! - COLE!

MY GOD.

COLE!

PAXTON.

DID YOU FIND HIM?

YOU FOUND HIM?

OH, MY.

IS THAT-- IS THAT COLE'S?

YEAH.

OH, NO.

COLE WELLER WAS FOUND THE FOLLOWING MORNING

AT THE BOTTOM OF A FREEWAY OVERPASS

HALF A MILE FROM THE SKATEBOARD DITCH.

THOUGH BANGED AND BRUISED,

MIRACULOUSLY, HE WAS STILL ALIVE.

COLE HAS NO RECOLLECTION OF THE EVENTS THAT TRANSPIRED

THAT FATEFUL NIGHT.

WHAT THE BOYS WITNESSED, ALONG WITH THE NUMEROUS SIGHTINGS

OF LARGE, WINGED CREATURES REPORTED TO INHABIT OUR SKIES,

LEADS US ALL TO WONDER...

DO THEY LIVE AMONG US?
