Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:03,688
Chile is home to Earth's oldest
2
00:00:03,712 --> 00:00:05,857
and most mysterious desert.
3
00:00:05,881 --> 00:00:09,067
We have huge, giant figures
carved into the desert.
4
00:00:09,092 --> 00:00:12,821
ERICH VON DANIKEN: On the
ground are gigantic stone plates,
5
00:00:12,846 --> 00:00:14,240
really gigantic.
6
00:00:14,263 --> 00:00:16,242
NARRATOR:
It has ancient traditions
7
00:00:16,265 --> 00:00:18,870
of visitors from the sky.
8
00:00:18,893 --> 00:00:20,871
NICOLAS BERASAIN:
Our ancestors
9
00:00:20,896 --> 00:00:23,082
used to tell stories
about beings
10
00:00:23,106 --> 00:00:25,626
who came from outer space.
11
00:00:25,650 --> 00:00:30,131
NARRATOR: And it is considered
a hotbed of modern UFO reports.
12
00:00:30,155 --> 00:00:33,759
GEORGE NOORY: Chile has one
of the highest rates of UFO sightings
13
00:00:33,783 --> 00:00:35,261
in the world.
14
00:00:35,284 --> 00:00:38,847
You got two hot spots,
and they're separated.
15
00:00:38,871 --> 00:00:41,683
It's probably very large,
because this is 35 miles away.
16
00:00:41,707 --> 00:00:43,728
I've never seen anything
like this in my life.
17
00:00:43,752 --> 00:00:45,771
NARRATOR:
Now that the Chilean government
18
00:00:45,795 --> 00:00:48,316
is openly examining UFOs,
19
00:00:48,340 --> 00:00:52,110
could they uncover
an extraterrestrial presence
20
00:00:52,134 --> 00:00:54,280
that has been interacting
with our planet
21
00:00:54,304 --> 00:00:56,240
for thousands of years?
22
00:00:56,265 --> 00:00:58,283
GIORGIO TSOUKALOS:
Extraterrestrial visitation
23
00:00:58,307 --> 00:01:00,244
to Chile never ended.
24
00:01:00,268 --> 00:01:01,621
That's one
of the most amazing things
25
00:01:01,645 --> 00:01:03,831
- I've ever seen in my life.
- It is truly amazing.
26
00:01:03,854 --> 00:01:05,832
These are the cases
where I think
27
00:01:05,856 --> 00:01:08,652
- there's really something to the ancient astronaut theory.
- I do, too.
28
00:01:10,736 --> 00:01:13,007
NARRATOR:
There is a doorway
29
00:01:13,031 --> 00:01:15,801
in the universe.
30
00:01:15,825 --> 00:01:18,829
Beyond it is
the promise of truth.
31
00:01:20,329 --> 00:01:22,516
It demands
we question everything
32
00:01:22,540 --> 00:01:24,852
we have ever been taught.
33
00:01:24,876 --> 00:01:29,106
The evidence is all around us.
34
00:01:29,131 --> 00:01:32,609
The future is
right before our eyes.
35
00:01:32,634 --> 00:01:35,280
We are not alone.
36
00:01:35,304 --> 00:01:39,098
We have never been alone.
37
00:01:46,230 --> 00:01:50,003
The Atacama Desert, Chile.
38
00:01:50,027 --> 00:01:53,655
2013.
39
00:01:54,698 --> 00:01:56,926
An autonomous rover
40
00:01:56,950 --> 00:01:58,719
traverses the barren landscape,
41
00:01:58,743 --> 00:02:01,930
carrying out
a two-week NASA-funded mission
42
00:02:01,954 --> 00:02:04,891
to collect soil samples
from below the surface
43
00:02:04,915 --> 00:02:07,936
of the parched desert floor.
44
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,564
This region of Chile
45
00:02:10,588 --> 00:02:13,568
is the driest place
on the planet.
46
00:02:13,592 --> 00:02:16,194
Some parts
have not experienced rainfall
47
00:02:16,218 --> 00:02:18,031
for centuries, making it
48
00:02:18,055 --> 00:02:20,115
one of the few locations
on Earth
49
00:02:20,139 --> 00:02:24,537
that mimics conditions on Mars.
50
00:02:24,561 --> 00:02:26,163
MICHAEL MASTERS:
Because the Atacama Desert
51
00:02:26,187 --> 00:02:29,167
is so similar
to the landscape seen on Mars,
52
00:02:29,191 --> 00:02:34,004
it's a very useful research tool
for astrobiologists,
53
00:02:34,028 --> 00:02:37,675
those interested in studying
how life exists
54
00:02:37,699 --> 00:02:40,344
in such difficult environments
55
00:02:40,368 --> 00:02:43,848
and how it relates
to the Mars landscape.
56
00:02:43,872 --> 00:02:47,518
NARRATOR:
On February 28, 2019,
57
00:02:47,542 --> 00:02:50,521
the results of the mission
are finally published.
58
00:02:50,545 --> 00:02:53,858
While surveying
this seemingly lifeless terrain,
59
00:02:53,882 --> 00:02:57,361
the rover discovered evidence
of microbial life
60
00:02:57,385 --> 00:03:00,281
thriving just below the surface.
61
00:03:00,305 --> 00:03:02,199
MASTERS:
Microbial life
62
00:03:02,223 --> 00:03:04,993
in the Atacama is very unique,
63
00:03:05,018 --> 00:03:09,039
and life has existed
where it really shouldn't be.
64
00:03:09,063 --> 00:03:12,293
Anybody who's been
to the Atacama Desert of Chile
65
00:03:12,317 --> 00:03:14,378
knows that it's pretty unusual.
66
00:03:14,402 --> 00:03:17,298
There's some very old
life-forms there
67
00:03:17,322 --> 00:03:20,509
you don't find so easily
in other parts of the world.
68
00:03:20,533 --> 00:03:22,661
(whooshing)
69
00:03:25,122 --> 00:03:26,348
NARRATOR:
Scientists believe
70
00:03:26,372 --> 00:03:28,725
that future subsoil sampling
on Mars
71
00:03:28,750 --> 00:03:33,563
could reveal similar and
perhaps even identical microbes.
72
00:03:33,587 --> 00:03:37,317
Is it possible that there is
life in the Atacama Desert
73
00:03:37,341 --> 00:03:39,569
that matches life on a planet
74
00:03:39,593 --> 00:03:42,448
140 million miles from Earth?
75
00:03:42,472 --> 00:03:45,784
As far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,
76
00:03:45,808 --> 00:03:48,454
the desert soil
contains evidence
77
00:03:48,478 --> 00:03:52,040
of a more profound
extraterrestrial connection.
78
00:03:52,064 --> 00:03:55,545
We have figures that have been
carved into the desert
79
00:03:55,569 --> 00:03:59,114
similar to what we see
in Nazca in Peru.
80
00:04:00,157 --> 00:04:02,968
And they're huge, giant figures
81
00:04:02,992 --> 00:04:05,763
to be seen from the sky.
82
00:04:05,787 --> 00:04:07,764
NARRATOR:
The Nazca Lines in Peru
83
00:04:07,788 --> 00:04:11,394
lie just 500 miles north
of the Atacama Desert.
84
00:04:11,418 --> 00:04:14,563
They are the most famous
geoglyphs on Earth,
85
00:04:14,587 --> 00:04:16,274
with over 1,100 glyphs
86
00:04:16,298 --> 00:04:20,552
spread across 155 square miles.
87
00:04:22,553 --> 00:04:26,283
But few people are aware
that Chile's Atacama Desert
88
00:04:26,307 --> 00:04:30,036
is home to nearly five times
as many geoglyphs as Nazca,
89
00:04:30,060 --> 00:04:33,040
with more than 5,000
covering an area
90
00:04:33,064 --> 00:04:36,461
of 90,000 square miles.
91
00:04:36,485 --> 00:04:40,548
MICHAEL BRADBURY: The
Atacama Desert has one of the most,
92
00:04:40,572 --> 00:04:44,050
if not the most, harsh
environments on the planet.
93
00:04:44,074 --> 00:04:47,471
So, for civilizations years ago,
94
00:04:47,495 --> 00:04:50,682
these glyphs that were engraved
into the ground,
95
00:04:50,706 --> 00:04:53,603
you know
that was not an easy task.
96
00:04:53,627 --> 00:04:55,855
TSOUKALOS:
There is no way
97
00:04:55,879 --> 00:04:58,858
that anyone
would go through this effort
98
00:04:58,882 --> 00:05:02,278
unless something very compelling
99
00:05:02,302 --> 00:05:04,697
and something very real
100
00:05:04,721 --> 00:05:07,283
happened to our ancestors.
101
00:05:07,307 --> 00:05:11,286
And so I think it's time
that we pay closer attention
102
00:05:11,310 --> 00:05:15,333
to what our ancestors
really tried to describe.
103
00:05:15,356 --> 00:05:18,668
NARRATOR: Of the
thousands of geoglyphs in Chile,
104
00:05:18,692 --> 00:05:21,923
one towers above the rest.
105
00:05:21,947 --> 00:05:25,843
The Atacama Giant
measures 390 feet,
106
00:05:25,867 --> 00:05:28,762
30 feet longer
than a football field.
107
00:05:28,786 --> 00:05:34,435
It sits on an ancient hillside
known as Cerro Unitas.
108
00:05:34,459 --> 00:05:36,187
VICTOR HIDALGO:
When you walk by this,
109
00:05:36,211 --> 00:05:39,314
you cannot really see the shape.
110
00:05:39,338 --> 00:05:40,858
This has been designed,
constructed,
111
00:05:40,882 --> 00:05:42,610
you know, to be seen from above.
112
00:05:42,634 --> 00:05:45,028
CHILDRESS:
And like at Nazca,
113
00:05:45,052 --> 00:05:47,865
seems to be a signal
to the sky gods
114
00:05:47,889 --> 00:05:51,369
and those who are flying
above the desert.
115
00:05:51,393 --> 00:05:53,788
So, who are they signaling?
116
00:05:53,812 --> 00:05:56,915
It would seem to be
extraterrestrials.
117
00:05:56,939 --> 00:05:59,918
WILLIAM HENRY: The Atacama
Giant has these lines coming out
118
00:05:59,942 --> 00:06:01,170
of the top of his head.
119
00:06:01,194 --> 00:06:02,797
We have to ask the question.
120
00:06:02,821 --> 00:06:06,800
Are these the beings
that the geoglyph makers
121
00:06:06,824 --> 00:06:09,262
were trying to communicate with?
122
00:06:09,286 --> 00:06:12,014
NARRATOR: Could the
figures depicted in the Atacama
123
00:06:12,038 --> 00:06:15,851
and at Nazca represent
extraterrestrial visitors,
124
00:06:15,875 --> 00:06:18,687
as ancient astronaut theorists
contend?
125
00:06:18,711 --> 00:06:20,480
And if so,
126
00:06:20,504 --> 00:06:22,065
could both the Nazca Lines
127
00:06:22,089 --> 00:06:24,901
and the Atacama glyphs
serve a larger,
128
00:06:24,925 --> 00:06:27,321
more interconnected purpose,
129
00:06:27,345 --> 00:06:31,617
having been made long before
any national borders existed?
130
00:06:31,641 --> 00:06:34,786
Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes
131
00:06:34,810 --> 00:06:39,082
and suggest they could mark
an ancient flight path.
132
00:06:39,106 --> 00:06:41,918
CHILDRESS: So, when you look
at all of these glyphs in Peru
133
00:06:41,942 --> 00:06:45,255
and Chile
and the vast desert spaces
134
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,009
and all
of the UFO activity there,
135
00:06:48,033 --> 00:06:53,014
is it possible that Chile
is really this UFO avenue?
136
00:06:53,038 --> 00:06:56,433
Is it possible that Chile
is this flight path
137
00:06:56,457 --> 00:06:58,019
for extraterrestrials,
138
00:06:58,043 --> 00:06:59,728
an alien alley?
139
00:06:59,752 --> 00:07:01,480
BILL BIRNES:
It's interesting
140
00:07:01,504 --> 00:07:03,649
when you look at the Nazca Lines
141
00:07:03,673 --> 00:07:05,985
and the Atacama geoglyphs
together.
142
00:07:06,009 --> 00:07:07,778
These are symbols
143
00:07:07,802 --> 00:07:09,779
that are best observed
from the sky,
144
00:07:09,803 --> 00:07:11,781
and they explode in numbers
145
00:07:11,805 --> 00:07:14,869
as you move south
to the Atacama.
146
00:07:14,893 --> 00:07:17,288
Could this suggest
that these symbols
147
00:07:17,312 --> 00:07:19,290
were some sort of aerial guide,
148
00:07:19,314 --> 00:07:22,793
guiding ancient aliens
on their way into Chile?
149
00:07:22,817 --> 00:07:24,586
And if so,
150
00:07:24,610 --> 00:07:28,007
this is exactly how
the runway lights work
151
00:07:28,031 --> 00:07:31,343
on modern airports.
152
00:07:31,367 --> 00:07:34,012
(translated):
I think what we are seeing today
153
00:07:34,036 --> 00:07:36,997
is what was seen in the past.
154
00:07:38,625 --> 00:07:42,504
Because Chile is honestly like
a kind of arrival point.
155
00:07:45,382 --> 00:07:47,610
NARRATOR:
For ancient astronaut theorists,
156
00:07:47,634 --> 00:07:51,197
what makes the Atacama geoglyphs
even more compelling
157
00:07:51,221 --> 00:07:53,783
is the fact
that Chile also boasts
158
00:07:53,807 --> 00:07:58,853
the highest number of reported
UFO sightings in the world.
159
00:08:00,521 --> 00:08:02,500
(translated):
There is a huge wave,
160
00:08:02,524 --> 00:08:05,336
a large quantity
of UFO sightings.
161
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,588
Quite simply,
there is not one family in Chile
162
00:08:08,612 --> 00:08:13,427
whose member has not had
a UFO experience.
163
00:08:13,451 --> 00:08:16,846
For some reason, Chile has one
of the highest rates
164
00:08:16,870 --> 00:08:20,016
of UFO sightings in the world.
165
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,228
Nobody really understands why,
166
00:08:22,252 --> 00:08:24,312
but it seems to be in a region
167
00:08:24,336 --> 00:08:26,981
that there's a cluster
of UFO sightings.
168
00:08:27,005 --> 00:08:30,569
NICK POPE:
Chile is such a vast country.
169
00:08:30,593 --> 00:08:34,407
It encompasses a wide range
of different climates.
170
00:08:34,431 --> 00:08:36,658
There are jungles,
there are deserts,
171
00:08:36,682 --> 00:08:38,076
there are forests.
172
00:08:38,100 --> 00:08:41,163
There's huge biodiversity, too,
173
00:08:41,187 --> 00:08:44,125
and diversity
in human populations.
174
00:08:44,149 --> 00:08:46,418
There are modern,
first world cities
175
00:08:46,442 --> 00:08:47,836
and indigenous peoples.
176
00:08:47,860 --> 00:08:49,629
If we're being visited,
177
00:08:49,653 --> 00:08:52,383
everything that you would want
to see on planet Earth
178
00:08:52,407 --> 00:08:54,677
is there in one nation.
179
00:08:54,701 --> 00:08:56,803
NARRATOR:
Could there be
180
00:08:56,827 --> 00:09:00,599
a link between Chile's
high number of UFO reports
181
00:09:00,623 --> 00:09:04,102
and the ancient geoglyphs
found in the Atacama Desert?
182
00:09:04,126 --> 00:09:05,770
Incredibly,
183
00:09:05,794 --> 00:09:08,982
the Chilean government itself
has suggested
184
00:09:09,006 --> 00:09:11,110
a connection
between the country's ancient
185
00:09:11,134 --> 00:09:13,344
and modern mysteries.
186
00:09:23,062 --> 00:09:26,042
Chile's national tourism board
187
00:09:26,066 --> 00:09:30,129
establishes
a designated UFO trail,
188
00:09:30,153 --> 00:09:32,130
a 19-mile route
189
00:09:32,154 --> 00:09:35,801
through one of the most infamous
UFO hot spots in the country,
190
00:09:35,825 --> 00:09:38,136
and it leads
to an enigmatic site
191
00:09:38,161 --> 00:09:41,765
known as El Enladrillado.
192
00:09:41,789 --> 00:09:44,518
This megalithic platform
was constructed
193
00:09:44,542 --> 00:09:47,354
from 233 volcanic blocks,
194
00:09:47,378 --> 00:09:50,191
each weighing upwards
of ten tons.
195
00:09:50,215 --> 00:09:53,110
HIDALGO: Now,
the Enladrillado is a plateau
196
00:09:53,134 --> 00:09:56,572
about 800 meters in diameter.
197
00:09:56,596 --> 00:09:59,200
It is not a place
of easy access.
198
00:09:59,224 --> 00:10:03,203
You have to go on horseback
for a couple days
199
00:10:03,227 --> 00:10:04,830
in order to get there.
200
00:10:04,854 --> 00:10:09,043
There is the belief that
it was related to UFO landing.
201
00:10:09,067 --> 00:10:12,046
VON DANIKEN:
Also on the ground
202
00:10:12,070 --> 00:10:14,715
are gigantic stone plates,
203
00:10:14,739 --> 00:10:18,469
really gigantic,
and it might very well be that
204
00:10:18,493 --> 00:10:21,138
Enladrillado was something
like a space port
205
00:10:21,162 --> 00:10:23,682
of the extraterrestrials.
206
00:10:23,706 --> 00:10:26,519
NARRATOR: Is there both
ancient and modern evidence
207
00:10:26,543 --> 00:10:29,687
that Chile has been visited
by extraterrestrials
208
00:10:29,711 --> 00:10:31,524
for thousands of years?
209
00:10:31,548 --> 00:10:33,859
And if so, why?
210
00:10:33,883 --> 00:10:38,197
Perhaps further clues
can be found by examining
211
00:10:38,221 --> 00:10:40,323
an indigenous tribe
that once existed
212
00:10:40,347 --> 00:10:42,451
in the southernmost reaches
of the country
213
00:10:42,475 --> 00:10:46,479
and their mysterious rituals.
214
00:10:57,157 --> 00:11:00,344
The creator gods of the Selk'nam NARRATOR:
German missionary turned anthropologist
215
00:11:00,368 --> 00:11:01,846
Martin Gusinde
216
00:11:01,870 --> 00:11:04,597
arrives in Chile's
southernmost outpost
217
00:11:04,621 --> 00:11:08,168
just 200 miles north
of Antarctica.
218
00:11:09,210 --> 00:11:11,187
He is met by native islanders
219
00:11:11,211 --> 00:11:13,190
known as the Selk'nam.
220
00:11:13,214 --> 00:11:15,775
But by the time
of Gusinde's arrival,
221
00:11:15,799 --> 00:11:20,263
the once thriving tribe had been
almost completely wiped out.
222
00:11:26,936 --> 00:11:29,480
Pre-Columbian people...
223
00:11:51,126 --> 00:11:53,397
HIDALGO: Something
else that happens to them
224
00:11:53,421 --> 00:11:55,774
is that many of them
were taken back to Europe
225
00:11:55,798 --> 00:12:00,571
to be displayed
in what was called human zoos.
226
00:12:00,595 --> 00:12:03,448
So, unfortunately,
it was a genocide.
227
00:12:03,472 --> 00:12:06,701
It was a genocide
against this tribe.
228
00:12:06,725 --> 00:12:08,453
NARRATOR:
Before the tribe's
229
00:12:08,477 --> 00:12:10,914
tragic
and complete annihilation,
230
00:12:10,938 --> 00:12:14,918
Gusinde took a remarkable series
of photos of these people.
231
00:12:14,942 --> 00:12:19,298
In 2015,
his work was finally published
232
00:12:19,322 --> 00:12:21,966
in The Lost Tribesof Tierra del Fuego,
233
00:12:21,990 --> 00:12:25,846
documenting the Selk'nam's
unique ceremonies and rituals.
234
00:12:25,870 --> 00:12:29,600
(Fuenzalida speaking Spanish)
235
00:12:29,624 --> 00:12:31,684
(translated): The Selk'nam
were a marvelous culture.
236
00:12:31,708 --> 00:12:34,605
They had various rituals,
237
00:12:34,629 --> 00:12:36,231
and a pantheon of gods
238
00:12:36,255 --> 00:12:38,650
would make them perform
a series of ceremonies
239
00:12:38,674 --> 00:12:40,027
where they would dress up
240
00:12:40,051 --> 00:12:42,738
representing these gods
from the sky.
241
00:12:42,761 --> 00:12:45,032
The creator gods of the Selk'nam
242
00:12:45,056 --> 00:12:47,533
actually descended from the sky
243
00:12:47,557 --> 00:12:50,245
and gave knowledge
to the local population.
244
00:12:50,269 --> 00:12:53,581
These pictures were taken
in black and white,
245
00:12:53,605 --> 00:12:57,586
but in real life,
the entire body is covered
246
00:12:57,610 --> 00:13:00,255
in bright red and white,
247
00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:03,591
and it is signifying
the fire of heaven
248
00:13:03,615 --> 00:13:06,177
according to the traditions.
249
00:13:06,201 --> 00:13:07,929
So you have to wonder
what it means,
250
00:13:07,953 --> 00:13:10,765
the fire of heaven
that descended from the sky.
251
00:13:10,789 --> 00:13:12,643
Now, you combine this
252
00:13:12,667 --> 00:13:16,272
with the representations
of the elongated skulls
253
00:13:16,296 --> 00:13:19,942
and the very strange-looking
costumes that they have,
254
00:13:19,966 --> 00:13:22,945
and right there
you have a connection
255
00:13:22,969 --> 00:13:25,029
to extraterrestrial visitation.
256
00:13:25,053 --> 00:13:28,075
(Fuenzalida speaking Spanish)
257
00:13:28,099 --> 00:13:29,659
(translated):
Where the Selk'nam are located,
258
00:13:29,683 --> 00:13:33,520
there have been records of UFOs
in that whole area.
259
00:13:36,566 --> 00:13:40,004
And if that area is active
in UFO sightings,
260
00:13:40,028 --> 00:13:42,798
then it is possible
that we are thinking
261
00:13:42,822 --> 00:13:46,552
what the Selk'nam must have been
thinking in that time.
262
00:13:46,576 --> 00:13:48,928
LUKES: They were
definitely communicating
263
00:13:48,952 --> 00:13:50,556
with other worlds,
264
00:13:50,580 --> 00:13:53,808
with mythological creatures
and things.
265
00:13:53,832 --> 00:13:55,977
And so there very well
could have been a component
266
00:13:56,001 --> 00:13:58,772
of them having had
extraterrestrial encounters
267
00:13:58,796 --> 00:14:03,277
and now trying to communicate
and continue that communication.
268
00:14:03,301 --> 00:14:07,280
NARRATOR: Could the clothing,
body paint and rituals
269
00:14:07,304 --> 00:14:09,908
of the Selk'nam people
have been inspired
270
00:14:09,932 --> 00:14:13,077
by interaction
with extraterrestrial visitors?
271
00:14:13,101 --> 00:14:15,748
CHILDRESS:
They dressed in all kinds
272
00:14:15,772 --> 00:14:18,082
of strange costumes.
273
00:14:18,106 --> 00:14:21,544
They had very specific rituals
274
00:14:21,568 --> 00:14:25,340
that tied them to the land
and to the stars.
275
00:14:25,364 --> 00:14:29,385
When you look at some
of these strange costumes
276
00:14:29,409 --> 00:14:30,971
with-with strange antennas
277
00:14:30,995 --> 00:14:32,639
coming out of the side
of their head,
278
00:14:32,663 --> 00:14:33,974
you have to wonder,
279
00:14:33,998 --> 00:14:36,769
are they imitating
extraterrestrials
280
00:14:36,793 --> 00:14:38,586
with their costumes?
281
00:14:40,587 --> 00:14:42,732
NARRATOR: As far as
ancient astronaut theorists
282
00:14:42,756 --> 00:14:44,317
are concerned,
283
00:14:44,341 --> 00:14:46,070
compelling evidence exists
284
00:14:46,094 --> 00:14:49,114
that alien visitation occurred
in this part of the world
285
00:14:49,138 --> 00:14:51,408
not only in the distant past
286
00:14:51,432 --> 00:14:54,059
but continues even today.
287
00:15:04,111 --> 00:15:06,130
Sábado Gigante,
288
00:15:06,154 --> 00:15:08,258
the longest running variety show
289
00:15:08,282 --> 00:15:09,842
in television history,
290
00:15:09,866 --> 00:15:12,303
interrupts
its scheduled broadcast
291
00:15:12,327 --> 00:15:14,389
with an urgent report.
292
00:15:14,413 --> 00:15:16,767
At about 2:00 p. M.
Or something like that,
293
00:15:16,791 --> 00:15:19,019
Sábado Gigante
cuts the transmissions,
294
00:15:19,043 --> 00:15:22,272
take the cameras outside
to the parking spot,
295
00:15:22,296 --> 00:15:24,857
and they spot
this incredible object
296
00:15:24,881 --> 00:15:26,818
in the sky, clear blue sky.
297
00:15:26,842 --> 00:15:29,846
We're talking
about a silver-looking object.
298
00:16:01,335 --> 00:16:03,312
NARRATOR:
The Santiago UFO,
299
00:16:03,336 --> 00:16:05,691
as it became known, was seen
300
00:16:05,715 --> 00:16:08,110
from Antofagasta to Concepción,
301
00:16:08,134 --> 00:16:10,863
a distance of about 1,200 miles
302
00:16:10,886 --> 00:16:13,322
or almost half
of the country's coastline.
303
00:16:13,346 --> 00:16:16,451
I was perhaps ten years old
at the time that we saw it.
304
00:16:16,475 --> 00:16:18,452
And you could hear on the radio,
305
00:16:18,476 --> 00:16:20,706
you know,
broadcast from the navy
306
00:16:20,730 --> 00:16:23,457
telling you that they have not
been able to identify.
307
00:16:23,481 --> 00:16:25,168
They don't know what it was.
308
00:16:25,192 --> 00:16:27,504
It was one of those cases
that really make you wonder,
309
00:16:27,528 --> 00:16:29,255
could it be an extraterrestrial?
310
00:16:29,279 --> 00:16:30,631
Yes, it could have been.
311
00:16:30,655 --> 00:16:33,177
NARRATOR:
Ancient astronaut theorists
312
00:16:33,201 --> 00:16:35,888
point out that
this mass sighting was reported
313
00:16:35,912 --> 00:16:38,514
along what could be
a specific flight path
314
00:16:38,538 --> 00:16:41,518
that has been documented
since antiquity.
315
00:16:41,542 --> 00:16:44,855
A route marked
by Peru's Nazca Lines,
316
00:16:44,879 --> 00:16:47,566
the geoglyphs of the Atacama,
317
00:16:47,590 --> 00:16:51,235
the megalithic platform
of El Enladrillado,
318
00:16:51,259 --> 00:16:54,615
and reaching as far south
as Tierra del Fuego,
319
00:16:54,639 --> 00:16:57,140
the homeland
of the Selk'nam people.
320
00:16:58,183 --> 00:17:01,163
The indications
are that this UFO activity
321
00:17:01,187 --> 00:17:03,581
has been going on in Chile
322
00:17:03,605 --> 00:17:07,777
for-for centuries
if not thousands of years.
323
00:17:36,305 --> 00:17:38,407
NARRATOR:
The Santiago UFO incident
324
00:17:38,432 --> 00:17:41,244
is only the tip
of a massive iceberg
325
00:17:41,269 --> 00:17:42,913
of well-documented reports
326
00:17:42,936 --> 00:17:45,457
regarding
inexplicable aerial phenomena
327
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,416
observed in Chile.
328
00:17:47,441 --> 00:17:51,922
But if these sightings represent
otherworldly encounters,
329
00:17:51,945 --> 00:17:55,884
do extraterrestrials have
a special interest in this area
330
00:17:55,907 --> 00:17:58,911
that some now call Alien Alley?
331
00:18:12,340 --> 00:18:14,318
NARRATOR:
We see an 4:15 a.m.nary range
332
00:18:14,343 --> 00:18:18,448
Corporal Armando Valdes
patrols the northern desert
333
00:18:18,471 --> 00:18:21,034
with a seven-man military unit.
334
00:18:21,057 --> 00:18:25,079
Suddenly,
their lookout bursts into camp.
335
00:18:25,104 --> 00:18:28,083
He has just witnessed
two bright violet lights
336
00:18:28,106 --> 00:18:32,671
descend from the sky
and land 500 yards away.
337
00:18:32,694 --> 00:18:36,758
Corporal Valdes was the leader
of this patrol,
338
00:18:36,781 --> 00:18:39,035
and he approached these objects.
339
00:18:40,952 --> 00:18:42,597
What happened next
340
00:18:42,622 --> 00:18:45,851
is shrouded in confusion
and mystery.
341
00:18:45,875 --> 00:18:49,061
His men saw him almost disappear
342
00:18:49,086 --> 00:18:51,272
into the light.
343
00:18:51,297 --> 00:18:53,232
He recalls getting disoriented,
344
00:18:53,257 --> 00:18:56,344
confused, perhaps passing out.
345
00:18:59,346 --> 00:19:01,866
And next thing he knew,
346
00:19:01,891 --> 00:19:04,644
he reappeared again.
347
00:19:05,644 --> 00:19:08,080
But the strange thing was
348
00:19:08,105 --> 00:19:11,442
that he had five days' growth
of beard.
349
00:19:12,484 --> 00:19:15,547
And his watch showed a date
350
00:19:15,570 --> 00:19:18,240
five days into the future.
351
00:19:19,450 --> 00:19:23,638
Had he somehow been gone
five days,
352
00:19:23,663 --> 00:19:26,557
and yet to all the rest
of the people in the patrol,
353
00:19:26,582 --> 00:19:29,478
it was just perceived
as a few minutes?
354
00:19:29,501 --> 00:19:31,480
(speaking Spanish)
355
00:19:31,503 --> 00:19:33,981
(translated): We were able
to interview four members
356
00:19:34,006 --> 00:19:35,733
of Valdes's squad.
357
00:19:35,758 --> 00:19:39,445
We interviewed Armando Valdes,
and everyone corroborated
358
00:19:39,470 --> 00:19:42,949
that his experience
had actually occurred.
359
00:19:42,972 --> 00:19:45,035
NARRATOR: Immediately
following the incident,
360
00:19:45,058 --> 00:19:47,663
Corporal Valdes
returned to his men
361
00:19:47,686 --> 00:19:49,455
on the verge of collapse
362
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,667
and uttered an ominous phrase:
363
00:19:52,692 --> 00:19:56,837
"You don't know who we are
or where we come from,
364
00:19:56,862 --> 00:19:59,465
but we will be back soon."
365
00:19:59,490 --> 00:20:02,803
Based on the growing number
of reports
366
00:20:02,826 --> 00:20:05,096
since this mysterious encounter,
367
00:20:05,121 --> 00:20:08,708
many believe that they were
true to their word.
368
00:20:10,710 --> 00:20:14,146
There are so many UFO sightings
in Chile.
369
00:20:14,171 --> 00:20:16,817
It's a hotbed of UFO activity.
370
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,028
And even just
in the last eight years,
371
00:20:20,051 --> 00:20:24,115
there have been
some significant UFO sightings
372
00:20:24,140 --> 00:20:27,536
that the Chilean government
has actually admitted to.
373
00:20:27,559 --> 00:20:29,578
2012.
374
00:20:29,603 --> 00:20:32,374
The Chilean Air Force documented
375
00:20:32,397 --> 00:20:35,711
five lights forming
strange, geometric patterns
376
00:20:35,734 --> 00:20:37,378
in the night sky.
377
00:20:37,403 --> 00:20:40,632
And then in 2015,
eight mysterious orbs
378
00:20:40,655 --> 00:20:44,219
flew in an oval formation
above Santiago.
379
00:20:44,242 --> 00:20:46,930
Just recently in 2019,
380
00:20:46,953 --> 00:20:50,392
several bright red objects
were seen
381
00:20:50,415 --> 00:20:54,270
streaking over the skies
of southern Chile.
382
00:20:54,295 --> 00:20:57,732
Chile is a place where
there's a tremendous amount
383
00:20:57,757 --> 00:20:59,108
of UFO activity,
384
00:20:59,133 --> 00:21:02,112
and fortunately,
the Chilean government
385
00:21:02,135 --> 00:21:06,282
is totally aboveboard
on these sightings.
386
00:21:06,307 --> 00:21:11,538
We see an extraordinary
range of cases in Chile,
387
00:21:11,561 --> 00:21:17,501
from close encounters, through
to pilot encounters with UFOs.
388
00:21:17,526 --> 00:21:21,006
NARRATOR: Why have UFO
sightings persisted in Chile
389
00:21:21,029 --> 00:21:25,009
in such abundance for hundreds,
if not thousands of years,
390
00:21:25,034 --> 00:21:28,096
as ancient astronaut theorists
believe?
391
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,974
I think the reason
why Chile to this day
392
00:21:31,999 --> 00:21:34,894
is considered
a hot spot of UFO activity
393
00:21:34,919 --> 00:21:37,939
is because Chile features
one of the biggest
394
00:21:37,962 --> 00:21:42,300
uninhabited geographical
locations on Earth.
395
00:21:44,886 --> 00:21:47,907
CHILDRESS: The northern
part is desolate desert
396
00:21:47,932 --> 00:21:51,368
that's virtually unpopulated.
397
00:21:51,393 --> 00:21:56,500
And the southern part of Chile
is fjords and glaciers.
398
00:21:56,523 --> 00:21:59,795
It's also hardly
populated down there, too.
399
00:21:59,818 --> 00:22:04,215
There are all kinds
of hiding spots.
400
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,093
Vacant places on the map
401
00:22:07,116 --> 00:22:10,596
where absolutely no one goes.
402
00:22:10,621 --> 00:22:13,682
It's an ideal place to hide.
403
00:22:13,707 --> 00:22:17,294
It'd be an ideal place
for an underground base.
404
00:22:18,461 --> 00:22:20,272
(speaking Spanish)
405
00:22:20,297 --> 00:22:22,901
(translated): Anything that
enters our territory can hide.
406
00:22:22,924 --> 00:22:26,386
Centuries can pass
and no one will discover it.
407
00:22:28,055 --> 00:22:30,951
NARRATOR:
Are extraterrestrials hiding in,
408
00:22:30,974 --> 00:22:34,644
or even below, the uninhabited
regions of Chile?
409
00:22:37,314 --> 00:22:39,875
And if so, is it their intention
410
00:22:39,900 --> 00:22:41,961
to merely observe humanity
411
00:22:41,986 --> 00:22:44,338
or could there be
something more tangible
412
00:22:44,363 --> 00:22:49,009
attracting them
to this part of the world?
413
00:22:49,034 --> 00:22:52,305
Even highly advanced
extraterrestrial civilizations
414
00:22:52,328 --> 00:22:54,807
will have resource needs.
415
00:22:54,832 --> 00:22:58,310
With Chile, one wonders
if it isn't copper.
416
00:22:58,335 --> 00:23:01,730
They have the biggest reserves
anywhere on the planet.
417
00:23:01,755 --> 00:23:05,109
There are also
vast supplies of lithium
418
00:23:05,134 --> 00:23:09,762
and staggering amounts
of natural resources, too.
419
00:23:12,182 --> 00:23:15,412
TSOUKALOS: It is not surprising
to me that this whole strip
420
00:23:15,435 --> 00:23:17,747
that's present-day Chile,
421
00:23:17,770 --> 00:23:20,625
that just goes
3,000 miles straight,
422
00:23:20,648 --> 00:23:23,502
that this would be
a hotbed of UFOs,
423
00:23:23,527 --> 00:23:27,007
because that area of the planet
424
00:23:27,030 --> 00:23:31,176
is huge with raw materials
and resources.
425
00:23:31,201 --> 00:23:35,265
So, if any extraterrestrials
would arrive on planet Earth,
426
00:23:35,288 --> 00:23:40,103
that area of the planet would
be blinking on their instruments
427
00:23:40,126 --> 00:23:44,423
with, "Hey, come here, check out
this area of the planet."
428
00:23:45,633 --> 00:23:47,484
(speaking Spanish)
429
00:23:47,509 --> 00:23:49,653
(translated):
We have data, concrete data
430
00:23:49,677 --> 00:23:52,615
of UFO appearances in mines,
431
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,618
in hydroelectric power plants,
432
00:23:55,643 --> 00:23:58,163
including such cases
as in Lake Colbún
433
00:23:58,186 --> 00:24:00,707
in the area of San Clemente.
434
00:24:00,730 --> 00:24:04,920
The UFO landing and takeover
of the hydroelectric power plant
435
00:24:04,943 --> 00:24:07,863
caused a vast quantity
of blackouts.
436
00:24:12,576 --> 00:24:15,221
When these lights would appear,
the locals and the farmers
437
00:24:15,244 --> 00:24:18,223
would call them
the "light robbers"... why?
438
00:24:18,248 --> 00:24:20,602
Because supposedly
the locals would attribute
439
00:24:20,625 --> 00:24:23,420
the blackouts to these UFOs.
440
00:24:26,464 --> 00:24:30,444
NARRATOR: Have extraterrestrials
mined this region's vast deposits
441
00:24:30,469 --> 00:24:33,949
of natural resources
since antiquity?
442
00:24:33,972 --> 00:24:37,368
Or more recently,
tapped into energy generated
443
00:24:37,393 --> 00:24:39,788
from Chilean power plants?
444
00:24:39,811 --> 00:24:44,334
Perhaps definitive answers
are just over the horizon.
445
00:24:44,357 --> 00:24:46,961
With more and more
unidentified flying objects
446
00:24:46,986 --> 00:24:50,089
invading the country's
airspace every year,
447
00:24:50,114 --> 00:24:53,259
unlike the United States,
the Chilean government
448
00:24:53,282 --> 00:24:55,679
is actively and openly
449
00:24:55,702 --> 00:24:58,163
searching for answers.
450
00:25:11,969 --> 00:25:15,448
HIDALGO: I do believe it's our right to know exactly
NARRATOR: After a 17-year rule, Chilean dictator
451
00:25:15,471 --> 00:25:18,910
Augusto Pinochet steps down,
452
00:25:18,933 --> 00:25:23,498
ushering in a period
of reform across the country.
453
00:25:23,521 --> 00:25:28,420
With a new spirit of government
transparency and social freedom,
454
00:25:28,443 --> 00:25:31,506
the media, as well
as military personnel,
455
00:25:31,529 --> 00:25:37,177
begin to openly investigate
Chile's unrivaled UFO phenomena.
456
00:25:37,201 --> 00:25:39,681
HIDALGO:
Now, when it came to UFOs,
457
00:25:39,704 --> 00:25:41,974
this is not something
new in Chile.
458
00:25:41,999 --> 00:25:45,769
In Chile, we have had sightings
long before Pinochet.
459
00:25:45,794 --> 00:25:48,272
So, after Pinochet,
460
00:25:48,297 --> 00:25:49,816
when the democracy comes back,
461
00:25:49,839 --> 00:25:52,861
the military forces
were making an effort
462
00:25:52,884 --> 00:25:55,739
to change the public opinion
about them.
463
00:25:55,762 --> 00:25:57,781
NARRATOR:
Following the country's
464
00:25:57,806 --> 00:26:00,701
newfound openness
to UFO sightings,
465
00:26:00,726 --> 00:26:03,328
control tower personnel
observed a flurry
466
00:26:03,353 --> 00:26:07,875
of mysterious aerial activity
in Chilean airspace.
467
00:26:07,900 --> 00:26:11,587
Unidentified objects were
flying dangerously close
468
00:26:11,612 --> 00:26:13,654
to Chilean aircraft.
469
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,509
I do believe it's
our right to know exactly
470
00:26:17,534 --> 00:26:20,305
what we are seeing,
what our military is seeing
471
00:26:20,328 --> 00:26:22,932
all over the world.
472
00:26:22,955 --> 00:26:25,143
NARRATOR: Several
notorious near-miss incidents
473
00:26:25,166 --> 00:26:28,145
elevated Chile's UFO activity
474
00:26:28,170 --> 00:26:33,276
from harmless curiosity to
an issue of national security.
475
00:26:33,299 --> 00:26:36,153
As a result, in 1997,
476
00:26:36,177 --> 00:26:38,155
the Chilean government
instituted
477
00:26:38,180 --> 00:26:41,159
the Committee on Studies
of Anomalous Aerial Phenomena,
478
00:26:41,182 --> 00:26:43,787
or CEFAA.
479
00:26:43,810 --> 00:26:48,540
CEFAA started as a result
of pilot sightings.
480
00:26:48,565 --> 00:26:52,586
Pilots, navigators,
radar operators
481
00:26:52,611 --> 00:26:55,256
were reporting UFOs.
482
00:26:55,279 --> 00:26:59,094
Some of these objects came
dangerously close to aircraft.
483
00:26:59,117 --> 00:27:02,888
The Chilean government
decided to act.
484
00:27:02,913 --> 00:27:04,598
So, this is unique.
485
00:27:04,623 --> 00:27:08,894
It's government, it's military,
and importantly,
486
00:27:08,919 --> 00:27:11,314
it's the scientific community
as well.
487
00:27:11,337 --> 00:27:14,776
All working together
with one common aim...
488
00:27:14,799 --> 00:27:17,903
Find out what
these sightings are.
489
00:27:17,928 --> 00:27:19,530
Who's responsible?
490
00:27:19,555 --> 00:27:21,140
What's going on?
491
00:27:23,141 --> 00:27:24,493
(speaking Spanish)
492
00:27:24,518 --> 00:27:26,246
(translated):
CEFAA gets reports
493
00:27:26,269 --> 00:27:29,624
from all citizens from the
far north down to Antarctica.
494
00:27:29,647 --> 00:27:33,461
And these reports
are made via our website.
495
00:27:33,484 --> 00:27:36,422
In the last 22 years
of investigation,
496
00:27:36,445 --> 00:27:39,467
we have received
almost 900 reports.
497
00:27:39,490 --> 00:27:41,134
Our process
and our manner of looking
498
00:27:41,159 --> 00:27:43,262
at these phenomena
has been very rigorous
499
00:27:43,287 --> 00:27:46,516
because we owe it
to our community.
500
00:27:46,539 --> 00:27:51,311
Instead of secrecy and cover-ups
and conspiracies,
501
00:27:51,336 --> 00:27:54,356
we have an atmosphere
of openness
502
00:27:54,381 --> 00:27:56,233
where people are almost
encouraged
503
00:27:56,258 --> 00:27:57,861
to come forward and report.
504
00:27:57,884 --> 00:28:01,280
The default position of CEFAA
505
00:28:01,305 --> 00:28:04,992
after their investigations is
to publish,
506
00:28:05,017 --> 00:28:06,869
release the case files,
507
00:28:06,894 --> 00:28:09,580
tell the people
what you've discovered.
508
00:28:09,605 --> 00:28:12,208
This is astonishing
509
00:28:12,231 --> 00:28:14,251
and refreshing.
510
00:28:14,276 --> 00:28:17,881
NARRATOR:
CEFAA insists that governments
511
00:28:17,904 --> 00:28:20,633
around the world should take
a similar approach
512
00:28:20,656 --> 00:28:24,304
to accelerate our understanding
of these aerial anomalies
513
00:28:24,327 --> 00:28:27,247
and reveal their true origin.
514
00:28:29,165 --> 00:28:31,310
(speaking Spanish)
515
00:28:31,335 --> 00:28:33,313
(translated):
To us, it is important
516
00:28:33,336 --> 00:28:35,565
that more organizations
or institutions
517
00:28:35,588 --> 00:28:39,234
or countries get involved
in the study of this phenomena.
518
00:28:39,259 --> 00:28:42,488
The phenomenon clearly exists.
519
00:28:42,511 --> 00:28:44,824
We don't know exactly
if there is only
520
00:28:44,847 --> 00:28:46,992
one explanation for its origin.
521
00:28:47,017 --> 00:28:50,496
Without a doubt, however,
when other countries
522
00:28:50,519 --> 00:28:53,040
or other states create
institutions like ours,
523
00:28:53,065 --> 00:28:57,127
they contribute to the security
of airspace operations.
524
00:28:57,152 --> 00:28:59,631
We have more good,
525
00:28:59,654 --> 00:29:02,342
documented video evidence
out of Chile
526
00:29:02,365 --> 00:29:05,761
than almost any other nation
I can think of.
527
00:29:05,786 --> 00:29:09,307
NARRATOR:
On March 13, 2012,
528
00:29:09,330 --> 00:29:11,683
the Chilean government
unveiled footage
529
00:29:11,708 --> 00:29:13,644
of a curious event
caught on camera
530
00:29:13,669 --> 00:29:18,316
above the prestigious El Bosque
Air Force Base in Santiago.
531
00:29:18,339 --> 00:29:20,943
Crowds were gathered
to celebrate the change
532
00:29:20,968 --> 00:29:24,948
of Chilean Air Force command
in 2010,
533
00:29:24,971 --> 00:29:26,950
recording fighter jets
534
00:29:26,973 --> 00:29:29,558
performing acrobatic maneuvers
overhead.
535
00:29:31,310 --> 00:29:33,247
After investigating the footage,
536
00:29:33,270 --> 00:29:37,417
CEFAA concluded
that the jets were not alone.
537
00:29:37,442 --> 00:29:42,339
The El Bosque was one that
CEFAA was very excited about.
538
00:29:42,364 --> 00:29:45,718
And when
they slowed down the videos,
539
00:29:45,741 --> 00:29:50,847
you could see these objects
zipping by at incredible speeds.
540
00:29:50,872 --> 00:29:52,307
(speaking Spanish)
541
00:29:52,332 --> 00:29:53,601
(translated):
This case acquired notoriety
542
00:29:53,625 --> 00:29:54,894
once the videos were viewed.
543
00:29:54,917 --> 00:29:58,480
In these videos,
there was a dark object
544
00:29:58,505 --> 00:30:01,608
that crossed the lines of flight
of these squadron formations.
545
00:30:01,633 --> 00:30:04,069
POPE:
Now this is where
546
00:30:04,094 --> 00:30:05,696
it gets really intriguing,
547
00:30:05,721 --> 00:30:07,865
because the official conclusion
548
00:30:07,888 --> 00:30:10,993
was that this UFO was traveling
549
00:30:11,018 --> 00:30:15,063
at a speed
of around 4,000 miles an hour.
550
00:30:17,773 --> 00:30:20,752
NARRATOR: Since the
objects in the El Bosque footage
551
00:30:20,777 --> 00:30:23,463
only reveal themselves
for a brief moment,
552
00:30:23,488 --> 00:30:27,551
definitive answers
remain elusive to investigators.
553
00:30:27,576 --> 00:30:30,346
But just a few years later,
554
00:30:30,369 --> 00:30:32,097
the Chilean government
would release
555
00:30:32,122 --> 00:30:34,915
an even more incredible video.
556
00:30:43,884 --> 00:30:45,862
Just outside of Santiago,
557
00:30:45,885 --> 00:30:49,824
Chilean Navy officers aboard
an Airbus Cougar helicopter
558
00:30:49,847 --> 00:30:53,351
are testing an infrared FLIR
high-definition camera.
559
00:30:54,853 --> 00:30:58,249
Suddenly, the camera captures
a strange object
560
00:30:58,272 --> 00:31:02,818
flying alongside them
at an altitude of 4,500 feet.
561
00:31:04,488 --> 00:31:07,258
After tracking it for
several minutes, they witness
562
00:31:07,281 --> 00:31:11,411
what appears to be some sort of
discharge coming from the craft.
563
00:31:14,623 --> 00:31:18,560
The Cougar case was a military
helicopter back in 2014
564
00:31:18,585 --> 00:31:21,396
that produced footage
in an infrared camera.
565
00:31:21,421 --> 00:31:24,817
And we're talking
about military equipment.
566
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:28,112
We're talking about millions
of dollars in equipment.
567
00:31:28,135 --> 00:31:30,114
TAYLOR:
It's nine minutes long
568
00:31:30,137 --> 00:31:32,115
that they have
continuous infrared footage
569
00:31:32,140 --> 00:31:33,617
of this phenomena.
570
00:31:33,642 --> 00:31:35,452
That's really unprecedented.
571
00:31:35,477 --> 00:31:38,122
And if this phenomena
is going on for nine minutes,
572
00:31:38,145 --> 00:31:39,897
we can do analysis on it.
573
00:31:41,316 --> 00:31:43,336
NARRATOR:
UFO researchers consider this
574
00:31:43,359 --> 00:31:47,173
to be one of the most baffling
incidents ever recorded.
575
00:31:47,197 --> 00:31:50,509
Could a deeper analysis
of the footage
576
00:31:50,534 --> 00:31:52,511
provide undeniable proof
577
00:31:52,536 --> 00:31:55,556
that what the Chilean Navy
officers caught on camera
578
00:31:55,579 --> 00:31:57,016
was, in fact...
579
00:31:57,039 --> 00:31:59,709
an alien aircraft?
580
00:32:09,885 --> 00:32:11,571
TNARRATOR: T
For more than a decade,
581
00:32:11,596 --> 00:32:13,699
image analyst Michael Bradbury
582
00:32:13,722 --> 00:32:16,786
has examined videos
of alleged UFOs,
583
00:32:16,809 --> 00:32:19,372
looking for any signs
that they could be
584
00:32:19,395 --> 00:32:22,398
something other
than man-made aircraft.
585
00:32:23,775 --> 00:32:26,378
Intrigued by
the recently released video shot
586
00:32:26,403 --> 00:32:28,798
from a Chilean Navy helicopter,
587
00:32:28,821 --> 00:32:32,801
he has invited astrophysicist
Dr. Travis Taylor
588
00:32:32,826 --> 00:32:35,221
to join him
and lend his expert opinion
589
00:32:35,244 --> 00:32:37,454
in examining the footage.
590
00:32:38,957 --> 00:32:41,059
TAYLOR:
The Chilean helicopter video
591
00:32:41,084 --> 00:32:44,939
is really intriguing
and fascinating, because...
592
00:32:44,962 --> 00:32:48,276
you have this vehicle,
or phenomena, whatever it is,
593
00:32:48,299 --> 00:32:51,737
and then it starts releasing
some type of material behind it.
594
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,030
So we absolutely need
to understand
595
00:32:54,055 --> 00:32:56,159
what this phenomena is.
596
00:32:56,182 --> 00:32:58,058
All right, here we go.
597
00:33:01,188 --> 00:33:03,374
I'm not going into it
with a belief
598
00:33:03,397 --> 00:33:05,125
that it is or isn't something.
599
00:33:05,150 --> 00:33:06,961
- No.
- So let's apply our knowledge to it
600
00:33:06,984 --> 00:33:08,671
and see what
we can come up with.
601
00:33:08,694 --> 00:33:11,423
Everything I look at,
I look at open-mindedly,
602
00:33:11,448 --> 00:33:13,259
you know,
from a standpoint of...
603
00:33:13,282 --> 00:33:15,344
we could be seeing something
special here, you know.
604
00:33:15,367 --> 00:33:17,846
And then again, it could be
a possible bird or a bug.
605
00:33:17,871 --> 00:33:20,223
That's always an option inside
the atmosphere of planet Earth.
606
00:33:20,248 --> 00:33:22,643
- That's just the way it is.
- So this is from the,
607
00:33:22,666 --> 00:33:25,479
uh, helicopter
not far from Santiago.
608
00:33:25,502 --> 00:33:28,481
- Not far. Uh, November of 2014.
- Okay.
609
00:33:28,506 --> 00:33:30,817
There's the object,
and it's only visible
610
00:33:30,842 --> 00:33:32,903
in infrared format.
611
00:33:32,927 --> 00:33:34,363
That's really intriguing.
612
00:33:34,386 --> 00:33:36,656
The high-def video,
it's like it's not even there.
613
00:33:36,681 --> 00:33:38,867
BRADBURY:
Two ground radar didn't see it.
614
00:33:38,892 --> 00:33:41,287
The radar on the helicopter
could not pick it up.
615
00:33:41,310 --> 00:33:43,998
So super-unique
circumstances here.
616
00:33:44,021 --> 00:33:46,834
You got two hot spots,
and they're separated.
617
00:33:46,857 --> 00:33:49,127
- You know, that's intriguing.
- Well...
618
00:33:49,152 --> 00:33:51,005
it's probably very large,
because this is 35 miles away.
619
00:33:51,028 --> 00:33:53,340
TAYLOR: Now,
how do we know for sure it's 35 miles away?
620
00:33:53,365 --> 00:33:55,175
Based off of the captain
that was flying the...
621
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:56,259
- Okay.
- Helicopter.
622
00:33:56,284 --> 00:33:57,720
That was his estimate.
623
00:33:57,743 --> 00:34:00,222
I've never seen anything
like this in my life.
624
00:34:00,247 --> 00:34:02,892
NARRATOR:
Michael inverts the image,
625
00:34:02,915 --> 00:34:06,895
so they can examine
the object's shape more closely.
626
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:08,521
BRADBURY:
What I've done here
627
00:34:08,545 --> 00:34:10,315
is taken the basic infrared,
628
00:34:10,340 --> 00:34:13,693
and I've just kind of flipped it
and adjusted it a little better
629
00:34:13,717 --> 00:34:15,862
- for clarity purposes.
- You can clearly see the shape
630
00:34:15,887 --> 00:34:17,155
- of the vehicle...
- Right.
631
00:34:17,179 --> 00:34:19,032
Or whatever the thing is.
632
00:34:19,056 --> 00:34:21,159
It's peanut-shaped.
Why is it peanut-shaped?
633
00:34:21,184 --> 00:34:22,536
BRADBURY:
The pilot,
634
00:34:22,559 --> 00:34:24,454
his description was...
635
00:34:24,478 --> 00:34:26,916
it had a flat body with...
636
00:34:26,940 --> 00:34:29,085
these two, like...
637
00:34:29,108 --> 00:34:31,461
- bright lenses or something.
- You know, it kind of
638
00:34:31,485 --> 00:34:33,505
does look like two jet engines,
639
00:34:33,530 --> 00:34:35,715
if you're looking at it
from the back, but...
640
00:34:35,739 --> 00:34:38,594
the motion on it looks
like it's moving side to side,
641
00:34:38,617 --> 00:34:42,431
and the aspect ratio
doesn't change on the circles.
642
00:34:42,454 --> 00:34:43,682
It's not going into the page...
643
00:34:43,706 --> 00:34:44,934
- No.
- As it should be.
644
00:34:44,958 --> 00:34:46,351
There's no other structure.
645
00:34:46,376 --> 00:34:48,436
- That's the thing.
- Yeah.
646
00:34:48,460 --> 00:34:49,896
You would see...
647
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:51,983
wings, a nose cone.
648
00:34:52,007 --> 00:34:53,693
- Right.
- You wouldn't just see the engine.
649
00:34:53,717 --> 00:34:56,112
You can look at a aircraft
with a infrared camera,
650
00:34:56,135 --> 00:34:59,072
- and you see the structure, because it's hot.
- Right.
651
00:34:59,097 --> 00:35:01,284
- You got sun shining on it. You got, you know, the engine...
- Exactly.
652
00:35:01,307 --> 00:35:02,952
Just the mechanics of it
make it hot.
653
00:35:02,976 --> 00:35:04,161
That's what
I'm looking for here is
654
00:35:04,184 --> 00:35:05,913
reflectivity
off of the physical structure,
655
00:35:05,936 --> 00:35:07,289
- and it's not there.
- And there's nothing.
656
00:35:07,313 --> 00:35:09,458
That kind of throws
that idea out.
657
00:35:09,481 --> 00:35:11,793
NARRATOR:
After isolating the object,
658
00:35:11,818 --> 00:35:13,838
Michael applies color filters
659
00:35:13,862 --> 00:35:16,882
to better define the object's
unique heat signature
660
00:35:16,905 --> 00:35:18,509
for closer analysis.
661
00:35:18,532 --> 00:35:21,012
TAYLOR: Now,
this one is really interesting.
662
00:35:21,036 --> 00:35:22,679
BRADBURY:
This is adjusted, not altered.
663
00:35:22,704 --> 00:35:24,264
TAYLOR:
Sure, I got it.
664
00:35:24,289 --> 00:35:26,099
So you got black is hot here.
665
00:35:26,123 --> 00:35:28,351
- Green is an ambient temperature, I'm assuming.
- Yes.
666
00:35:28,376 --> 00:35:29,561
- And white is cold.
- Correct.
667
00:35:29,585 --> 00:35:32,148
So here's the thing.
There's clearly a field
668
00:35:32,172 --> 00:35:35,943
of cold air around this thing.
That's, uh...
669
00:35:35,967 --> 00:35:37,570
that's baffling.
670
00:35:37,594 --> 00:35:39,322
- Baffling.
- This thing, it's hot,
671
00:35:39,346 --> 00:35:40,322
- and then instantly...
- Instantly cold.
672
00:35:40,347 --> 00:35:41,574
It's cold.
673
00:35:41,597 --> 00:35:43,409
And in nature,
that's not how things work.
674
00:35:43,432 --> 00:35:44,534
No.
675
00:35:44,559 --> 00:35:46,244
There is a different
temperature bubble
676
00:35:46,268 --> 00:35:48,204
around the vehicle than there is
677
00:35:48,228 --> 00:35:50,123
- around normal vehicles.
- Exactly.
678
00:35:50,148 --> 00:35:53,251
Which suggests
some type of a field,
679
00:35:53,275 --> 00:35:54,753
whatever that means.
680
00:35:54,777 --> 00:35:57,632
Could be, you know, electrical,
magnetic, gravitational.
681
00:35:57,655 --> 00:35:59,800
We just don't know what it is,
but there is some sort of
682
00:35:59,824 --> 00:36:04,179
clear anomaly and some sort
of field around this craft.
683
00:36:04,204 --> 00:36:07,474
The most amazing thing,
from a scientific standpoint,
684
00:36:07,498 --> 00:36:11,436
is some sort of low pressure
or cold area
685
00:36:11,460 --> 00:36:14,523
immediately around whatever
this phenomena is.
686
00:36:14,547 --> 00:36:16,650
And, from a physics standpoint,
687
00:36:16,675 --> 00:36:18,902
we can't really explain
what's causing that.
688
00:36:18,927 --> 00:36:24,074
So, when does it start releasing
the particulates?
689
00:36:24,099 --> 00:36:27,494
It does at about five minutes
into the video.
690
00:36:27,518 --> 00:36:29,954
- TAYLOR: So right there. Now, that's really interesting.
- Right here.
691
00:36:29,978 --> 00:36:31,539
TAYLOR:
So it's very hot. Right?
692
00:36:31,563 --> 00:36:33,333
It's saturated black.
Very hot.
693
00:36:33,358 --> 00:36:36,211
BRADBURY: So, again,
in hi-def, you can't see it.
694
00:36:36,235 --> 00:36:38,713
TAYLOR: That means
it's a temperature plume.
695
00:36:38,737 --> 00:36:41,634
It's not necessarily
a particulate plume.
696
00:36:41,657 --> 00:36:45,346
Like, if you spray out jet fuel
from the back of a plane,
697
00:36:45,369 --> 00:36:47,556
it starts cooling off
almost immediately,
698
00:36:47,579 --> 00:36:49,224
and you even get
ice crystals in it, right?
699
00:36:49,248 --> 00:36:51,309
Absolutely, because it's
affected by the atmosphere.
700
00:36:51,333 --> 00:36:53,603
- This thing stays hot.
- And it holds its shape.
701
00:36:53,628 --> 00:36:56,523
Which, in itself,
is highly unusual.
702
00:36:56,547 --> 00:36:59,735
- It doesn't follow standard fluid mechanics.
- No.
703
00:36:59,759 --> 00:37:02,070
TAYLOR: You could try to
debunk this as just an earthly vehicle
704
00:37:02,094 --> 00:37:05,240
all you want to, but I've never
seen any earthly vehicle
705
00:37:05,264 --> 00:37:07,099
that is explained this way.
706
00:37:08,393 --> 00:37:10,561
What on earth
could this thing be?
707
00:37:12,146 --> 00:37:15,543
NARRATOR: The video
analysis suggests to Travis
708
00:37:15,567 --> 00:37:18,753
that this craft possesses
technology that is more advanced
709
00:37:18,777 --> 00:37:21,340
than anything that can be
found on Earth.
710
00:37:21,364 --> 00:37:22,842
TAYLOR:
That's really interesting.
711
00:37:22,865 --> 00:37:25,552
NARRATOR:
Michael completes the analysis
712
00:37:25,577 --> 00:37:28,806
using a variety of metrics.
713
00:37:28,829 --> 00:37:32,434
BRADBURY: This is inverted infrared,
full gamma reduction,
714
00:37:32,458 --> 00:37:33,686
and you've still got
two hot spots.
715
00:37:33,710 --> 00:37:35,061
So, clearly you've got
two hot spots
716
00:37:35,085 --> 00:37:37,981
in your peanut shape,
and they're separated.
717
00:37:38,005 --> 00:37:40,693
You know,
that-that's... intriguing.
718
00:37:40,717 --> 00:37:41,860
Looks like a diamond
shape around...
719
00:37:41,885 --> 00:37:43,862
BRADBURY:
Looks like a diamond at times.
720
00:37:43,887 --> 00:37:45,780
Clearer in some formats
721
00:37:45,804 --> 00:37:48,867
but not visible
to the naked eye.
722
00:37:48,891 --> 00:37:51,161
Yeah, it could be, like,
two hexagons or two diamonds,
723
00:37:51,186 --> 00:37:53,038
whatever it ends up being.
724
00:37:53,061 --> 00:37:57,083
NARRATOR: Finally,
Michael has one more thing to show Travis
725
00:37:57,108 --> 00:37:59,961
that he feels makes this footage
even more extraordinary.
726
00:37:59,985 --> 00:38:01,422
There's a good look at it
right there.
727
00:38:01,445 --> 00:38:03,782
That is... that's insane.
728
00:38:10,163 --> 00:38:15,101
NARRATOR: In 2017, the Chilean
government released astonishing footage
729
00:38:15,126 --> 00:38:19,588
of a UFO caught on infrared
camera near Santiago.
730
00:38:22,257 --> 00:38:27,197
After new analysis,
astrophysicist Dr. Travis Taylor
731
00:38:27,222 --> 00:38:30,659
has concluded that this strange
aerial object possesses
732
00:38:30,682 --> 00:38:32,744
capabilities that are
not consistent
733
00:38:32,768 --> 00:38:35,813
with any known human technology.
734
00:38:38,273 --> 00:38:41,503
But as far as image analyst
Michael Bradbury is concerned,
735
00:38:41,527 --> 00:38:43,130
perhaps most incredible of all
736
00:38:43,153 --> 00:38:47,050
is an image that appears
not in the video...
737
00:38:47,074 --> 00:38:50,804
but etched into
the desert floor.
738
00:38:50,829 --> 00:38:55,976
There is a glyph on the ground
that was found in the desert
739
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,563
that has two diamond-shaped,
like, objects
740
00:38:59,586 --> 00:39:01,315
with a plume coming out
behind it
741
00:39:01,338 --> 00:39:02,690
that has a line
in the center of it.
742
00:39:02,715 --> 00:39:04,068
- TAYLOR: No kidding.
- BRADBURY: Yeah.
743
00:39:04,092 --> 00:39:06,177
That is very intriguing.
744
00:39:07,512 --> 00:39:09,739
BRADBURY:
And you see that same structure
745
00:39:09,764 --> 00:39:11,826
that was seen
by the Chilean Navy.
746
00:39:11,849 --> 00:39:15,246
They match nearly perfectly.
747
00:39:15,269 --> 00:39:19,458
- Just like the phenomena caught by this Chilean helicopter.
- Yes.
748
00:39:19,481 --> 00:39:22,878
Like the diamond things we were
seeing on the, on the infrared.
749
00:39:22,902 --> 00:39:25,463
That's a phenomena right now
we're seeing with our own eyes.
750
00:39:25,487 --> 00:39:29,009
And-and we, we see that
somebody else saw it somehow.
751
00:39:29,032 --> 00:39:31,052
How old is the glyph?
752
00:39:31,077 --> 00:39:33,597
Several hundred... if not
thousands... of years old.
753
00:39:33,621 --> 00:39:35,516
So that's really exciting.
754
00:39:35,539 --> 00:39:38,351
BRADBURY: It's no
coincidence that that was found
755
00:39:38,376 --> 00:39:40,353
in the same geographical part
of the world.
756
00:39:40,378 --> 00:39:42,648
TAYLOR: That's,
that's one of the most amazing things
757
00:39:42,672 --> 00:39:43,648
I've ever seen in my life.
758
00:39:43,672 --> 00:39:44,983
It is truly amazing.
759
00:39:45,007 --> 00:39:47,987
These are the cases where
I think there's really
760
00:39:48,010 --> 00:39:49,195
something to the ancient
astronaut theory.
761
00:39:49,219 --> 00:39:50,929
I do, too.
762
00:39:52,306 --> 00:39:55,827
TSOUKALOS: Just because,
thousands of years ago,
763
00:39:55,851 --> 00:39:57,621
people did not have
video cameras
764
00:39:57,644 --> 00:40:00,523
doesn't mean these things
did not exist.
765
00:40:03,192 --> 00:40:07,965
These diamond-shaped wedges have
the exact same trail
766
00:40:07,989 --> 00:40:11,552
as we can see in the UFO video.
767
00:40:11,576 --> 00:40:14,012
So is there a connection?
768
00:40:14,036 --> 00:40:18,057
And in my opinion,
as far as Chile is concerned,
769
00:40:18,081 --> 00:40:22,061
there is a connection
between modern UFOs
770
00:40:22,085 --> 00:40:24,505
and ancient craft.
771
00:40:26,298 --> 00:40:29,612
NARRATOR: Could the striking
similarity between an ancient geoglyph
772
00:40:29,635 --> 00:40:32,364
and a craft captured
on an infrared camera
773
00:40:32,387 --> 00:40:36,367
provide compelling evidence
that extraterrestrials
774
00:40:36,391 --> 00:40:40,204
have been present on Earth
for thousands of years?
775
00:40:40,228 --> 00:40:43,000
And if so,
has an alien flight path
776
00:40:43,023 --> 00:40:46,818
been positively identified
in South America?
777
00:40:49,447 --> 00:40:54,094
POPE: There are UFO reports
from the modern industrialized cities,
778
00:40:54,117 --> 00:40:57,347
and there are reports
from the indigenous peoples.
779
00:40:57,371 --> 00:41:01,226
Now, when two completely
different groups see and report
780
00:41:01,250 --> 00:41:03,853
the same thing, this tells me
they're reporting
781
00:41:03,878 --> 00:41:05,922
something tangible and real.
782
00:41:13,762 --> 00:41:18,726
The contemporary UFOs
and the mythological UFOs.
783
00:41:35,326 --> 00:41:37,762
NARRATOR: Is it possible
that the vast desert landscape
784
00:41:37,786 --> 00:41:40,181
stretching through Chile
and Peru
785
00:41:40,206 --> 00:41:43,793
is an extraterrestrial outpost
on Earth?
786
00:41:44,876 --> 00:41:48,231
Do the incredible sightings,
curious rituals,
787
00:41:48,255 --> 00:41:51,150
and strange geoglyphs
tell a story
788
00:41:51,175 --> 00:41:54,112
of ongoing alien visitation?
789
00:41:54,137 --> 00:41:58,324
Perhaps as more incredible
footage continues to surface,
790
00:41:58,349 --> 00:42:01,829
it will be revealed
that our alien ancestors
791
00:42:01,853 --> 00:42:05,981
have been among us... all along.
