1
00:00:00,700 --> 00:00:03,000
[narrator reading]

2
00:00:04,860 --> 00:00:06,130
[man] Holy [bleep]!

3
00:00:06,130 --> 00:00:09,000
[narrator] ...The team doubled
their efforts to get inside

4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,160
the keyhole treasure chamber
and find the gold.

5
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:13,660
[Chad] You guys attack
from the north side

6
00:00:13,660 --> 00:00:15,860
and we'll try to attack this
from the south side.

7
00:00:15,860 --> 00:00:17,660
We'll see who gets
in the keyhole chamber first.

8
00:00:17,660 --> 00:00:21,760
[narrator] They made
a deadly radioactive discovery
under the energy zone.

9
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:23,760
-[beeping]
-It's highly
radioactive uranium.

10
00:00:25,060 --> 00:00:26,400
[Duane] Let's get the [bleep]
out of here.

11
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,100
[man] John! Shut it down!

12
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:31,060
[narrator] But then,

13
00:00:31,060 --> 00:00:34,000
Chad located a series
of Aztec stone markers...

14
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,360
[Chad] Is this not a bear
guarding the cave?

15
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,660
[narrator] ...that led
to an ancient gold cache
in a cave.

16
00:00:39,660 --> 00:00:42,660
[man] They look more like
a counting system.

17
00:00:42,660 --> 00:00:46,360
Each one of these
is an actual ingot in itself.

18
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,000
So if this is a big receipt,
where's the gold?

19
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:50,660
[narrator]
But a mysterious intruder

20
00:00:50,660 --> 00:00:53,860
threatens the team's quest
for the gold.

21
00:00:53,860 --> 00:00:58,100
[Charlie] He is digging
something up right across
from the damn tent.

22
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:00,060
Holy [bleep]!

23
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:02,160
What the [bleep]?

24
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,200
[narrator] Legends
of ancient treasures...

25
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,060
This has to be
hundreds of years back.

26
00:01:08,060 --> 00:01:10,100
[narrator] ...and unexplained
phenomena...

27
00:01:10,100 --> 00:01:13,360
-What the hell is that?
-[narrator] ...meet
at a 160-acre property

28
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:17,860
in northeast Utah
known as Blind Frog Ranch

29
00:01:17,860 --> 00:01:19,860
where Duane Ollinger
and his team

30
00:01:19,860 --> 00:01:23,000
are digging in search
of long-lost Aztec gold.

31
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,260
[man] The Aztecs
have discovered this?

32
00:01:25,260 --> 00:01:26,500
[narrator] But the closer
they get...

33
00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:28,960
I finally get to hold
[bleep] gold in my hand.

34
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:30,600
[narrator] ...the more
the land fights back.

35
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,860
-Where's your mask?
-God! [bleep] God!

36
00:01:32,860 --> 00:01:34,760
[narrator] Now Duane
will move heaven...

37
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,260
-There you go!
-[narrator] ...and earth...

38
00:01:36,260 --> 00:01:37,600
Fire in the hole!

39
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,600
[narrator] ...until he gets
to the bottom
of this mystery...

40
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,360
[Duane] We've started
this whole deal

41
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,160
and we're sure as hell
gonna finish it.

42
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,200
[narrator] ...and solves
what's lurking below...

43
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:47,800
Holy [bleep]! There's
something in there! [bleep]!

44
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,160
God!

45
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:52,260
[narrator]
...at Blind Frog Ranch.

46
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:05,800
[Charlie] Well,
I got an alert.

47
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,260
There was a vehicle
on the south road coming in

48
00:02:10,260 --> 00:02:11,860
and they was pulling
a trailer.

49
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,860
There was no markings
that I could see on the truck.

50
00:02:17,260 --> 00:02:19,500
-[Duane] Coming across
our property?
-Yeah.

51
00:02:19,500 --> 00:02:21,660
They come off the mountain
up there

52
00:02:21,660 --> 00:02:24,260
and came down
and just dropped the trailer
right over here.

53
00:02:25,100 --> 00:02:28,160
Then they left
the way they came in.

54
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,360
So I wanna go down here
and look at this
and see what it is.

55
00:02:32,260 --> 00:02:34,000
[Duane]
That's somebody's gear...

56
00:02:34,660 --> 00:02:36,100
They're not on the property,

57
00:02:36,100 --> 00:02:38,360
but they damn sure are sitting
on the right of way.

58
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:40,900
[Charlie] You know,
I don't know what it is.

59
00:02:46,260 --> 00:02:48,260
Look at all that crap on it.

60
00:02:48,260 --> 00:02:50,800
-[Duane] Pretty expensive
piece of equipment.
-Yep.

61
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,360
It has a license plate,
Charlie boy.

62
00:02:55,860 --> 00:02:58,460
-Brand-new trailer, Charlie.
-Brand-new trailer.

63
00:03:00,260 --> 00:03:01,500
I patrol the ranch
every morning

64
00:03:01,500 --> 00:03:04,100
and I come down here
and they got this
white trailer

65
00:03:04,100 --> 00:03:05,860
right on the edge
of our ranch.

66
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,860
There's all kinds of [bleep]
right here.

67
00:03:09,860 --> 00:03:12,500
Look at all them [bleep] wires
that are coming out.

68
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,630
They even got the wheel
locked down here, Charlie.
Look at that.

69
00:03:21,100 --> 00:03:23,860
I'm not sure what that
round thing is up there.

70
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,000
[Duane] Solar panels.

71
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,860
So they don't
need electricity.

72
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,100
See, that's a camera.

73
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,730
They're looking at everything
coming and going.

74
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,760
Fence lines
not over 100 yards away.

75
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,900
They're monitoring
something here.

76
00:03:44,900 --> 00:03:46,860
[narrator] The suspicious
white trailer

77
00:03:46,860 --> 00:03:50,860
sits just outside
the property line
of Blind Frog Ranch

78
00:03:50,860 --> 00:03:54,860
on a location owned
by the Bureau
of Land Management.

79
00:03:54,860 --> 00:03:56,560
The appearance
of the white trailer

80
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,260
marks the second time
in less than a week

81
00:03:59,260 --> 00:04:02,700
-that trespassers have invaded
the ranch.
-[Charlie] Holy [bleep].

82
00:04:03,300 --> 00:04:04,700
[narrator] Days earlier,

83
00:04:04,700 --> 00:04:09,060
an armed figure removed
a large metal cylinder
from the property.

84
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,560
You know,
whoever put this here,

85
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,500
they're seeing everything
we're doing.

86
00:04:13,500 --> 00:04:14,560
[Duane] No doubt.

87
00:04:15,060 --> 00:04:16,630
Something ain't right.

88
00:04:18,260 --> 00:04:20,760
[man] Hey, guys.
Can I ask you to step away
from the trailer, please?

89
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:24,100
[Duane] I hear something.

90
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:26,730
[Charlie] What the hell
is this?

91
00:04:26,730 --> 00:04:28,260
[man] Yeah, just step away
from the trailer, please.

92
00:04:28,260 --> 00:04:29,400
Hello?

93
00:04:31,860 --> 00:04:33,260
Can I help you gentlemen?

94
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,160
You guys just put them
things out there
anywhere you want or what?

95
00:04:39,500 --> 00:04:40,560
According to our records,

96
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,160
this side of the road
is state property.

97
00:04:44,060 --> 00:04:45,400
[Charlie]
What is this trailer for?

98
00:04:47,260 --> 00:04:49,760
This is a federal program
to monitor cloud seeding.

99
00:04:50,660 --> 00:04:52,000
[Charlie] "Cloud seeding."

100
00:04:53,860 --> 00:04:55,360
[Duane] No, this ain't right.

101
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,360
Is that a live camera?

102
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,400
Huh?

103
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,500
And you're filming
our ass right now.

104
00:05:01,500 --> 00:05:04,160
Can't move the trailer.
You're gonna be
breaking the law.

105
00:05:04,700 --> 00:05:06,000
[distorts]

106
00:05:06,460 --> 00:05:08,030
[Charlie] Hello?

107
00:05:10,500 --> 00:05:12,460
[Duane] You know, in Texas,

108
00:05:12,460 --> 00:05:14,860
if you're downwind
and something
smells like a skunk

109
00:05:14,860 --> 00:05:17,560
and looks like one,
it's a [bleep] skunk.

110
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:19,860
[Charlie] Cloud seeding.

111
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,260
This is more than [bleep].

112
00:05:22,260 --> 00:05:24,160
[both] Something ain't right.

113
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,600
They say it's some kind of
a cloud seeding vehicle
but that's all [bleep].

114
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,860
They are out here
monitoring something.

115
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,660
...on our property.

116
00:05:36,660 --> 00:05:39,360
And then somebody parks
a damn trailer out there

117
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,760
and makes an excuse
to have it out there.

118
00:05:42,860 --> 00:05:45,160
They're not telling us
the truth.

119
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,000
You know, every time
we find a new discovery,

120
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,560
somebody shows up
and starts messing with us.

121
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,160
There's no way
that's a coincidence.

122
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,360
What I think is they need to

123
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,560
stay the [bleep]
off the property.

124
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,360
We need to find out
who these people are

125
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,400
and what they're watching
on the ranch.

126
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,160
[Chad] What's going on?

127
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,360
Well, here's the deal, fellas.

128
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,100
We got a trailer sitting
on our right of way.

129
00:06:19,100 --> 00:06:20,660
And they're watching
the ranch.

130
00:06:20,660 --> 00:06:21,760
It's got GPS.

131
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,600
It's got wires running
all through it and everything.

132
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,660
It's got cameras
looking at everything
coming and going.

133
00:06:28,300 --> 00:06:29,200
It has a speaker on it.

134
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,360
They tell me
that they're cloud seeding.

135
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,360
But I don't buy that
cloud seeding [bleep].

136
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,100
[narrator] Cloud seeding
refers to the release

137
00:06:36,100 --> 00:06:38,360
of chemicals
into the atmosphere

138
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,760
to trigger snow or rainfall.

139
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,660
[Duane] Well, there's
two things right here

140
00:06:42,660 --> 00:06:44,260
that cylinder that they pull

141
00:06:44,260 --> 00:06:46,100
and then we got a trailer
on the south end

142
00:06:46,100 --> 00:06:47,860
of the property
that's high level.

143
00:06:47,860 --> 00:06:49,560
We got to stop down
the treasure hunt

144
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,700
and figure out
what these people
are monitoring

145
00:06:51,700 --> 00:06:53,160
and find out
what they're up to.

146
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:54,400
Yeah.

147
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,300
[Chad] It's kind of
frustrating that we have
to break off

148
00:06:56,300 --> 00:06:58,900
from finding
this cavern system

149
00:06:58,900 --> 00:07:00,230
to dealing with this intruder.

150
00:07:00,230 --> 00:07:02,300
I mean, I don't know
what these guys are up to
out here,

151
00:07:02,300 --> 00:07:03,900
but it's not good for us.

152
00:07:03,900 --> 00:07:07,360
It threatens everything
we've done here
for the past 17 years.

153
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,360
So we need to know
what the [bleep] is going on.

154
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,260
This takes priority.

155
00:07:11,260 --> 00:07:12,760
[Eric] So, yeah,
maybe we start

156
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,560
by looking
at that cylinder hole

157
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:15,900
-that they pulled out.
-[man] Is it still there?

158
00:07:15,900 --> 00:07:18,300
-Perhaps take
some samples, look at 'em.
-Yep.

159
00:07:18,300 --> 00:07:20,800
We just need to find out
what the [bleep] is going on.

160
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:21,700
Yeah.

161
00:07:21,700 --> 00:07:22,700
[Duane speaking]

162
00:07:53,860 --> 00:07:54,960
There it is.

163
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,000
[narrator] Looking for clues

164
00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,760
as to who the intruders are

165
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,960
and what they're doing
on the ranch,

166
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:03,660
Eric is examining the hole

167
00:08:03,660 --> 00:08:05,860
left behind
by the stolen cylinder.

168
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,360
[Eric] What I'm gonna do
is take a composite sample.

169
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,200
Later we'll take a look
at that in the lab.

170
00:08:13,060 --> 00:08:16,360
What I'm hoping to find
is some kind of trace or clue

171
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,960
of what either that cylinder
was made out of

172
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,360
or what the power source is.

173
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:22,960
Maybe we can find that
in the samples.

174
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,330
Yeah.

175
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,960
There's some tiny
silver metal particles
in here.

176
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,100
They've got
a really high luster.

177
00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:38,330
There's no rust.

178
00:08:38,330 --> 00:08:41,660
That means this thing
is probably made out
of a steel alloy

179
00:08:41,660 --> 00:08:43,600
or maybe even titanium.

180
00:08:46,060 --> 00:08:48,560
It appears that
this is the only hole
right here.

181
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:49,960
No trenching.

182
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,100
No solar panels.

183
00:08:52,100 --> 00:08:53,660
It looks like this is it.

184
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:55,860
I got an idea.

185
00:08:57,500 --> 00:09:01,400
There's no sign
of an external power source
for this cylinder.

186
00:09:03,860 --> 00:09:04,960
That should do it.

187
00:09:13,660 --> 00:09:15,000
Yes.

188
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,160
We know this thing's
been in the ground
for at least three months.

189
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:19,400
Perhaps years.

190
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,000
I mean, the only thing I know
of that keeps power that long

191
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,560
is something nuclear.

192
00:09:24,660 --> 00:09:26,200
This is what you think it is.

193
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,100
It's a Geiger counter.

194
00:09:29,100 --> 00:09:32,260
[narrator] Geiger counters
are equipped
with a gas-filled tube

195
00:09:32,260 --> 00:09:35,260
that ionizes when exposed
to radiation

196
00:09:35,260 --> 00:09:37,960
creating
a measurable electrical pulse

197
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,400
that triggers a clicking sound
from the device.

198
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,000
[Eric] And you'll find
trace amounts of radioactivity
here and there.

199
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,660
Background levels,
they call it.

200
00:09:46,660 --> 00:09:49,960
I'm getting
a little bit here and there,
but nothing special.

201
00:09:51,900 --> 00:09:54,160
And I'll go in and check
the interior of it here.

202
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,460
[beeping]

203
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:00,260
Holy [bleep]!

204
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:05,760
[bleep]!

205
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,160
This is highly radioactive.
Wow.

206
00:10:08,660 --> 00:10:10,260
Holy [bleep].

207
00:10:10,260 --> 00:10:12,460
There's a radioactive source
in the ground.

208
00:10:12,460 --> 00:10:14,660
All right, everybody,
let's just move away
from this.

209
00:10:14,660 --> 00:10:16,100
Everybody back up, please.

210
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,360
I wanna keep the crew safe.

211
00:10:19,100 --> 00:10:20,600
Let's get the hell
out of here.

212
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:34,100
Eric, what the hell
are you talking
about here, bud?

213
00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:37,600
[narrator] That evening,
Eric meets with Duane
and the team

214
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,960
to share his findings
about the cylinder hole.

215
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,260
Duane, we've got
a nuclear source on site here.

216
00:10:44,260 --> 00:10:45,330
Say that again?

217
00:10:45,330 --> 00:10:49,900
It appears the cylinder
has nuclear material in it.

218
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,900
We picked it up
on the Geiger counter,

219
00:10:54,900 --> 00:10:58,360
and it's definitely
radioactive.

220
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,660
[narrator] After analyzing
the dirt
that housed the cylinder,

221
00:11:01,660 --> 00:11:04,000
Eric believes the capsule
was powered

222
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,860
by a nuclear source

223
00:11:05,860 --> 00:11:08,860
that would allow it
to capture data for years.

224
00:11:08,860 --> 00:11:11,360
Probably a small bead
of plutonium,

225
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:15,760
something they use
to do these atomic clocks,
and they power satellites.

226
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,560
Just need a small bead.

227
00:11:17,560 --> 00:11:19,460
This machine doesn't lie.
It's nuclear.

228
00:11:22,860 --> 00:11:25,800
[narrator] Plutonium
is a radioactive isotope

229
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,360
first harvested
by the U.S. government
in the 1940s

230
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,360
in the development
of the atomic bomb.

231
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,260
It was the explosive force
used in the Fat Man,

232
00:11:36,260 --> 00:11:41,200
the bomb dropped
on Nagasaki, Japan,
during World War II.

233
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,500
But since has been repurposed
as a source of nuclear energy.

234
00:11:47,060 --> 00:11:49,060
So, being nuclear,

235
00:11:49,060 --> 00:11:52,200
that thing could
potentially run
for a long time.

236
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:53,100
[Eric] Oh, yeah.

237
00:11:53,100 --> 00:11:56,360
It could power it easily
for several years.

238
00:11:57,460 --> 00:12:00,300
How would they even get
nuclear material?

239
00:12:00,300 --> 00:12:02,500
Maybe military? I don't know.

240
00:12:02,500 --> 00:12:03,800
Son of a bitch.

241
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,760
I mean,
that stuff is regulated.

242
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,800
I mean, plutonium, uranium,
it's highly regulated.

243
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,160
[Duane] I think
we're gonna have to get

244
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,060
somebody in here
that specializes in this.

245
00:12:14,060 --> 00:12:16,460
Let's find out
what the [bleep] is going on.

246
00:12:27,460 --> 00:12:30,100
[Duane] Hey, Ryan, pull you up
a chair there, bud.

247
00:12:30,100 --> 00:12:32,160
What do you got going on?

248
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,360
You know, if that cylinder
has plutonium in it,

249
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,260
that narrows this down
quite a bit.

250
00:12:38,260 --> 00:12:40,160
It's gotta be
a government agency

251
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,060
or some contractor
that works for them.

252
00:12:43,060 --> 00:12:45,660
They don't get that stuff out
like cookies.

253
00:12:45,660 --> 00:12:47,760
So I asked Ryan Skinner
to come out.

254
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,060
Ryan's been studying
secret government programs

255
00:12:51,060 --> 00:12:53,200
out here, even the Flats.

256
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,460
And he will help us find out
what these people are up to.

257
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,360
[narrator] Skinner has spent
19 years

258
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,300
uncovering the truth
behind the nearby
Skinwalker Ranch

259
00:13:03,300 --> 00:13:08,260
and other covert
U.S. military operations
in the Uinta Basin.

260
00:13:08,260 --> 00:13:10,960
Duane hopes Ryan
can help him determine

261
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,560
what the mysterious cylinder
was recording

262
00:13:13,560 --> 00:13:16,000
and who placed it
on his property.

263
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,800
You know, Ryan, we had
an intruder on the ranch.

264
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,000
The poachers again, or...?

265
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,660
No. Charlie boy, show 'em.

266
00:13:29,100 --> 00:13:30,560
[Ryan] Where is this?

267
00:13:30,560 --> 00:13:32,760
[Charlie] Right across
from the old miners' shack

268
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,000
and right on the side
of the road right there.

269
00:13:38,860 --> 00:13:41,900
Have you seen anything
like this over there
at the Skinwalker Ranch?

270
00:13:41,900 --> 00:13:45,860
Yeah, I saw a caravan
of vehicles
exactly like that one.

271
00:13:45,860 --> 00:13:50,360
Black SUVs without plates
on them coming into
and out of the ranch.

272
00:13:51,460 --> 00:13:53,560
The military fatigues
look identical

273
00:13:53,560 --> 00:13:56,760
to what they were wearing
back at security on the ranch.

274
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,260
And I've seen operators
like this before.

275
00:13:59,260 --> 00:14:01,830
-Over there at the Skinwalker?
-Yeah.

276
00:14:04,300 --> 00:14:08,460
Have you ever heard of any
of the Skinwalker Ranch
employees

277
00:14:08,460 --> 00:14:11,100
running tests
somewhere else, like out here?

278
00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:13,960
They were doing experiments
all over the basin.

279
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,900
I know the government
was involved.

280
00:14:15,900 --> 00:14:17,100
Whatever is happening,

281
00:14:17,100 --> 00:14:18,600
it's not just happening
at one ranch.

282
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:19,900
It's not obeying
property lines.

283
00:14:19,900 --> 00:14:21,460
It's all throughout the basin.

284
00:14:22,500 --> 00:14:23,960
[narrator]
For the past 60 years,

285
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,100
the U.S. government
has conducted

286
00:14:26,100 --> 00:14:30,460
covert paranormal experiments
throughout the Uinta Basin,

287
00:14:30,460 --> 00:14:33,160
including a now-famous
UFO study

288
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,900
that was conducted
by the Pentagon
on Skinwalker Ranch.

289
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,660
So you think maybe this
was part of that experiment?

290
00:14:41,660 --> 00:14:42,960
Good question.

291
00:14:43,500 --> 00:14:44,760
Whatever's happening here,

292
00:14:45,500 --> 00:14:46,860
it could be a part of that.

293
00:14:48,100 --> 00:14:51,900
Everyone's heard the stories
about secret
government programs.

294
00:14:51,900 --> 00:14:55,560
But what's different now,
is they're coming
onto my land.

295
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,660
I wanna know who they are
and what the hell
they're doing here.

296
00:14:58,660 --> 00:15:01,560
You know people over there
at the Skinwalker Ranch.

297
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,100
Could you see if they know
anything about this?

298
00:15:04,100 --> 00:15:05,860
Yeah, there's some
old contacts out there.

299
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,460
I know somebody I think
that might be able to help.

300
00:15:09,460 --> 00:15:11,260
His name's Dr. Segala.

301
00:15:11,260 --> 00:15:13,000
He's a physicist.

302
00:15:15,460 --> 00:15:17,600
I mean, I have no idea
what this thing is.

303
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,800
But let's find out.

304
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,860
Damn right. Bring it on.

305
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,400
Everybody,
this is Dr. Jim Segala.

306
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,100
-How you doing, guys?
-[Charlie] Hey, Jim.

307
00:15:38,100 --> 00:15:39,160
We're gonna want to hear
what he has to say.

308
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:40,460
[Chad] Yeah, for sure.

309
00:15:40,460 --> 00:15:44,100
[narrator] With plans
to find the underground tunnel
on hold,

310
00:15:44,100 --> 00:15:45,700
Duane and the team are focused

311
00:15:45,700 --> 00:15:50,100
on uncovering the mystery
behind the recent incursions
on the ranch

312
00:15:50,100 --> 00:15:53,160
and are meeting
with physicist Dr. Jim Segala,

313
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:57,460
hoping he can shed some light
on what this device
is used for.

314
00:15:57,460 --> 00:16:01,160
My background is
fabricating specialized
electronic equipment

315
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,400
to read very delicate signals.

316
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,300
I have a PhD in physics.

317
00:16:05,300 --> 00:16:07,160
I have a master's degree
in engineering.

318
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:11,260
I've been investigating
these type of things
for probably 20 years.

319
00:16:11,260 --> 00:16:14,900
[narrator] Dr. Jim Segala
conducted
several investigations

320
00:16:14,900 --> 00:16:17,500
at the legendary
Skinwalker Ranch,

321
00:16:17,500 --> 00:16:19,900
as well
as a three-year investigation

322
00:16:19,900 --> 00:16:23,800
into unusual phenomena
in the Uinta Basin.

323
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,160
We've got evidence
of somebody coming out here,
digging up

324
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,260
some sort of
unknown technology
underground.

325
00:16:30,260 --> 00:16:32,460
We don't know what it is,
and I think you might be able

326
00:16:32,460 --> 00:16:35,000
to identify or help us
figure out what's going on
in this tape.

327
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,460
Yeah, I'd love to.

328
00:16:36,460 --> 00:16:38,600
So I have the video
right here.

329
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,760
Have you seen anything
like this,
like this cylinder like this?

330
00:16:42,460 --> 00:16:43,900
[Jim] Oh, that's interesting.

331
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,460
That could be one of those
seismic geophones

332
00:16:49,460 --> 00:16:53,560
that are self-powered
that can last for a while.

333
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,700
-Like months on end or--
-[Jim] Yeah.

334
00:16:55,700 --> 00:16:58,160
Well, they put them up
in mountains and stuff
like that to monitor.

335
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,860
A few years ago, I designed
a piece of equipment
very similar to that

336
00:17:01,860 --> 00:17:05,160
and actually deployed out
to many subterranean holes

337
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,000
and caves
and things like that.

338
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,100
Well, what would it be here
to monitor?

339
00:17:09,100 --> 00:17:11,260
[Jim] So it monitors
microwave energy.

340
00:17:11,260 --> 00:17:12,700
It monitors gamma energy.

341
00:17:12,700 --> 00:17:15,360
It monitors
the gravitational vectors.

342
00:17:15,360 --> 00:17:17,660
It could be something
as simple as looking

343
00:17:17,660 --> 00:17:20,160
for seismic activity
in this area.

344
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,800
I mean, have you guys heard
of Gravity Base Vernal?

345
00:17:25,260 --> 00:17:27,960
Uh, I'm not super familiar.

346
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,760
This is very similar
to the equipment
they deployed out there.

347
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,200
Is that right?

348
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,660
And with Gravity Base Vernal
so close to here,

349
00:17:35,660 --> 00:17:37,560
you know,
it gives you pause to say,

350
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,760
is that what this guy
pulled out of the ground?

351
00:17:41,460 --> 00:17:45,660
[narrator] According
to recently declassified
government documents,

352
00:17:45,660 --> 00:17:49,260
Gravity Base Vernal
was a geological survey base

353
00:17:49,260 --> 00:17:53,860
just miles
from Blind Frog Ranch
at the nearby McCoy Flats.

354
00:17:53,860 --> 00:17:55,700
According to the records,

355
00:17:55,700 --> 00:17:58,560
the government installation
was initially used

356
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:03,160
by the U.S. Geological Survey
to monitor seismic activity.

357
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,460
Sometime in the mid-'70s,

358
00:18:06,460 --> 00:18:09,200
the observatory
was suddenly commandeered

359
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:13,000
by NASA
and the Central
Intelligence Agency.

360
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,760
What they were using
the array for was unknown.

361
00:18:17,360 --> 00:18:18,700
But not long after,

362
00:18:18,700 --> 00:18:21,960
the entire site
was disassembled

363
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,160
taking the mystery
of what they found with them.

364
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:29,000
Now, Dr. Sagala believes
that geophones

365
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,100
similar to the cylinder

366
00:18:30,100 --> 00:18:33,560
were used
at Gravity Base Vernal.

367
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,460
[Jim] Maybe the cylinder
is one of those
seismic monitors.

368
00:18:36,460 --> 00:18:37,860
Here's the deal, James.

369
00:18:37,860 --> 00:18:40,260
You and Chad
go to the McCoy Flats

370
00:18:40,260 --> 00:18:42,260
and let's see
what the hell's going on.

371
00:18:42,260 --> 00:18:44,260
Let's see if we can find
another cylinder

372
00:18:44,260 --> 00:18:46,100
that looks like
what they pulled.

373
00:18:46,100 --> 00:18:49,260
Jim Sagala is saying
this cylinder could be

374
00:18:49,260 --> 00:18:51,800
some kind of a seismic device.

375
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,160
The squirrelly part about
this whole deal is that

376
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,460
NASA and the CIA
took this program over.

377
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,160
They don't care
about earthquakes,

378
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,000
so what are they looking at?

379
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,360
They don't do nothing
for the hell of it.

380
00:19:09,360 --> 00:19:11,760
Let's find out
what the [bleep] is going on.

381
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:12,760
Right.

382
00:19:24,860 --> 00:19:26,030
[Chad] So how far is it?

383
00:19:26,030 --> 00:19:30,000
When we turn off
to McCoy Flats,
it's another six miles.

384
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,260
[narrator] Following
Dr. Sagala's suggestion,

385
00:19:32,260 --> 00:19:34,460
Chad and James
are on their way

386
00:19:34,460 --> 00:19:37,500
to the former site
of Gravity Base Vernal.

387
00:19:37,500 --> 00:19:40,560
They hope to find evidence
of the mysterious cylinder

388
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:44,760
that Dr. Sagala believes
was a geophone
and sensor array.

389
00:19:46,100 --> 00:19:47,960
It's right up here
on the left.

390
00:19:55,860 --> 00:19:58,000
-Let's check it out, huh?
-Yeah.

391
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:09,760
Look at this.

392
00:20:10,360 --> 00:20:11,860
This is a door hinge.

393
00:20:11,860 --> 00:20:13,000
[James] Door hinges, yeah.

394
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,760
Why would this be
in the middle of nowhere
like this?

395
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,100
Unless there was
a building here.

396
00:20:16,100 --> 00:20:17,160
[Chad] Huh.

397
00:20:17,860 --> 00:20:19,500
[James] Look,
this is the path.

398
00:20:19,500 --> 00:20:21,260
It's just covered up
with gravel.

399
00:20:25,260 --> 00:20:27,660
You know, everything
has just been taken away.

400
00:20:27,660 --> 00:20:33,160
There's obviously platforms
where there were buildings
on top of it that are gone.

401
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,800
-[James] Look at this.
-Oh, that's an anchor.

402
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,960
[James] It's an anchor.
They would have anchored
the telescope to this.

403
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,160
-[Chad] See what we can find.
-[James] Yeah,
see what we can find.

404
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,660
[metal detector beeping]

405
00:20:45,660 --> 00:20:48,860
Even all the way out here,
there's still part
of the building.

406
00:20:48,860 --> 00:20:50,660
-[Chad] Is there?
-It's fencing.

407
00:20:50,660 --> 00:20:52,230
I just found a bullet.

408
00:20:54,700 --> 00:20:56,360
[James] It's just going
all the way out.

409
00:20:56,360 --> 00:20:58,300
They've just cut
all the poles.

410
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,700
I'm gonna head out
more this way.

411
00:21:02,100 --> 00:21:05,660
We're finding different
footers for buildings.
I mean, concrete.

412
00:21:05,660 --> 00:21:07,900
We're finding, like,
big wires.

413
00:21:07,900 --> 00:21:10,360
And they had
high-voltage electricity.

414
00:21:11,860 --> 00:21:14,460
So they definitely had some
big infrastructure
around here.

415
00:21:14,460 --> 00:21:16,860
Looks like it's to the
outside of a building.

416
00:21:16,860 --> 00:21:19,600
[Chad] But so far,
there's no sign of another one
of those cylinders.

417
00:21:21,900 --> 00:21:23,960
-[James] All right, I'm gonna
head that way.
-[Chad] All right.

418
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:25,760
[detector beeping]

419
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,200
There's [bleep] all over here.

420
00:21:29,460 --> 00:21:30,660
[James] What the hell is this?

421
00:21:32,260 --> 00:21:33,300
Hey, Chad.

422
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:36,260
[Chad] Yeah.

423
00:21:36,260 --> 00:21:37,560
Come here and look at this.

424
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:38,800
What the hell is this?

425
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,260
What the [bleep] is that?

426
00:21:46,500 --> 00:21:47,900
-[James] Hey, Chad.
-[Chad] Yeah.

427
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:49,660
Come here and look at this.

428
00:21:50,100 --> 00:21:51,260
What the hell is this?

429
00:21:51,260 --> 00:21:52,560
What is it?

430
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,500
It's magnetic tape.

431
00:21:57,500 --> 00:22:01,300
-[Chad] It's like...
-[James] Look, it's still got
the [bleep] tape in it.

432
00:22:02,100 --> 00:22:03,200
[Chad] This is wild.

433
00:22:04,300 --> 00:22:06,660
[narrator] In the earliest
days of computing,

434
00:22:06,660 --> 00:22:10,760
magnetic tape was the primary
method of storing data,

435
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,900
but it was eventually
phased out in the 1980s

436
00:22:13,900 --> 00:22:17,000
with the advent
of digital storage.

437
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,400
[James] This was probably
to record data.

438
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:24,300
What the hell is this?

439
00:22:25,660 --> 00:22:27,160
[Chad] What is that?

440
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,560
Maybe these are the tops
of this magnetic tape.

441
00:22:30,660 --> 00:22:32,260
It says something on here.

442
00:22:32,260 --> 00:22:33,360
It's like stamped. It says...

443
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,500
...uh, G-R, Gree,
something Gree.

444
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:41,360
Greeley and DuPont.

445
00:22:41,360 --> 00:22:44,160
I don't know. Is that a person
or a place?

446
00:22:45,100 --> 00:22:46,660
That's something
to check in on.

447
00:22:46,660 --> 00:22:47,730
[Chad] Nice find, James.

448
00:22:48,660 --> 00:22:51,460
It's really great
to find that magnetic tape.

449
00:22:51,460 --> 00:22:53,560
Whatever is on it is data.

450
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,760
We might be able to get
some information
on who was here,

451
00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,800
what was that cylinder
and what they were
doing with it.

452
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:01,900
[Chad] I wonder what else
is out there?

453
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,500
So they came off the south end
of our property.

454
00:23:12,500 --> 00:23:15,160
Yeah, they came down
that mountain over there,
the southeast corner of it.

455
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,360
-[Duane] They act like
they own this damn place.
-[Charlie] Yep.

456
00:23:18,360 --> 00:23:21,000
[narrator] After recent
intrusions from outsiders,

457
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,760
Blind Frog Ranch
is on high alert.

458
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:28,100
While the rest of the team
patrols the perimeter
of the Ranch,

459
00:23:28,100 --> 00:23:32,400
Ryan is hoping to get insight
into who's behind
the geophone

460
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,600
secretly installed
on their land.

461
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,200
[Ryan] Hey, Jeremy,
thanks for, uh,
making the time to talk to us.

462
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:40,800
[Jeremy] No worries.
No worries.

463
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,260
[narrator] He's turned
to Air Force veteran
Jeremy McGowan.

464
00:23:44,260 --> 00:23:47,100
Jeremy's military career
and current role

465
00:23:47,100 --> 00:23:49,760
as a civilian
defense contractor,

466
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:55,160
makes him uniquely qualified
to assess possible covert
military operations

467
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:58,260
that could be taking place
on the Ranch.

468
00:23:58,260 --> 00:24:00,660
So what do you think's
going on in that video?

469
00:24:00,660 --> 00:24:02,860
Who do you think
those people are?

470
00:24:02,860 --> 00:24:07,000
[Jeremy] Looking at it,
you've got two or three good
solid possibilities.

471
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:11,700
One, it's a military
or paramilitary type
of operation.

472
00:24:11,700 --> 00:24:16,460
Two, it could be
a civilian contractor,
private security.

473
00:24:16,460 --> 00:24:20,700
But the way that he came in,
went straight for the GPS
unit in his hand,

474
00:24:20,700 --> 00:24:22,160
he knew what he was
looking for.

475
00:24:23,360 --> 00:24:27,500
It could be
a private defense contractor's
personal security.

476
00:24:27,500 --> 00:24:31,600
It could be the DOD
or an intelligence agency.

477
00:24:34,060 --> 00:24:36,160
So what do you think
our next step should be

478
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,360
to figure out
who put this here?

479
00:24:38,360 --> 00:24:41,660
Well, I want to put you
in contact with a guy

480
00:24:41,660 --> 00:24:44,960
that may be more tuned
into this than I am.

481
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:49,360
This is somebody that knows
about domestic
United States technology.

482
00:24:49,360 --> 00:24:51,000
He is not going to go
on camera.

483
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,660
He will get in contact
with you.

484
00:24:53,660 --> 00:24:55,760
[Ryan] Jeremy is connecting me
with somebody who worked on

485
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,560
a secret government program
in the area.

486
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,300
He's deep on the inside,
and I've got to be very
cautious dealing with him.

487
00:25:02,300 --> 00:25:04,560
I'll reach out to him.
I'll make the introduction.

488
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,260
Please let me know whatever
it is that you find out.

489
00:25:07,260 --> 00:25:08,660
I want to know
what's going on.

490
00:25:08,660 --> 00:25:10,660
All right, we'll keep
you updated.

491
00:25:10,660 --> 00:25:12,200
-Hey, I appreciate it.
Thank you.
-[Ryan] Thanks.

492
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,460
-Hey, hey.
How's it going?
-Hey.

493
00:25:29,500 --> 00:25:32,060
Boy, we found
some cool [bleep]
at that NASA site.

494
00:25:32,060 --> 00:25:35,200
Let's go see what you got.

495
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:39,000
[narrator] Chad and James
have returned from a former
NASA research site

496
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:40,760
at McCoy Flats.

497
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,500
They were searching for clues
on who was behind
the geophone

498
00:25:44,500 --> 00:25:48,330
dug up on their ranch
a few nights ago
by a trespasser.

499
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,000
So what did you find, fellas?
Did you find anything like
those cylinders.

500
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:57,900
We didn't find the cylinder,
but we did find tons of stuff.

501
00:25:57,900 --> 00:26:00,260
I mean our metal detectors
were going nonstop.

502
00:26:00,260 --> 00:26:02,800
It was a government place,
for sure.

503
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,500
We think this is the most
important thing that we found.

504
00:26:05,500 --> 00:26:07,360
It's like old film.

505
00:26:07,360 --> 00:26:09,660
-Look at this. There's
even like...
-[Charlie] A real reel.

506
00:26:09,660 --> 00:26:13,800
-[James] Magnetic tape.
-A reel that they did
recording with.

507
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:18,100
This looks like some type
of poly crystalline
metallic film.

508
00:26:18,100 --> 00:26:19,160
Right.

509
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:21,160
What would that record?

510
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,860
It could be recording
like data on there.

511
00:26:23,860 --> 00:26:26,360
But unfortunately,
it looks highly oxidized.

512
00:26:26,360 --> 00:26:31,100
-I highly doubt you can pull
any information off of it.
-Damn.

513
00:26:33,100 --> 00:26:34,860
[James] And then
there was a name.

514
00:26:34,860 --> 00:26:37,200
Two names. We don't know
if it was like a person
or a place.

515
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,060
-Greeley, DuPont.
-Yeah, Greeley and DuPont.

516
00:26:40,060 --> 00:26:42,100
A search on that day.

517
00:26:43,460 --> 00:26:47,260
[narrator] James is searching
a FOIA database
for information

518
00:26:47,260 --> 00:26:51,000
on the magnetic tape names
Greeley and DuPont.

519
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,160
FOIA stands for the Freedom
of Information Act,

520
00:26:54,160 --> 00:27:00,160
a law that provides many
formerly classified documents
at the request of US citizens.

521
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:05,700
Surprisingly, his search
returns dozens
of declassified documents,

522
00:27:05,700 --> 00:27:09,360
referencing the two names
and gravity base Vernal.

523
00:27:09,360 --> 00:27:11,900
[James] I think
I found something.

524
00:27:11,900 --> 00:27:14,100
I'm going to put it up
on the screen.

525
00:27:15,700 --> 00:27:21,160
It looks like Greeley
and DuPont is actually
Greeley and Dumont.

526
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,000
They're not people.

527
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,460
They're code names...

528
00:27:26,360 --> 00:27:29,360
-...for nuclear bomb tests.
-Really?

529
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:34,000
[James] So initially
they're listening
for nuclear bomb blasts.

530
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:39,460
But then they start focusing
in on the sky above instead.

531
00:27:39,460 --> 00:27:44,560
They're talking about
unknown craft up in the skies
above Uinta Basin.

532
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,360
So what the hell
does that mean?

533
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:52,500
In your research
who still owns that property?

534
00:27:52,500 --> 00:27:55,760
From the looks of the data,
the USGS turned everything

535
00:27:55,760 --> 00:28:00,060
over to NASA
in the early 1970s.

536
00:28:00,060 --> 00:28:02,300
[narrator] The report
that James has uncovered

537
00:28:02,300 --> 00:28:07,260
details a government
research program
operated by NASA,

538
00:28:07,260 --> 00:28:11,560
studying ground vibrations
from nuclear blasts,

539
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:16,560
but then shifted to studying
acoustic signals
coming from the sky.

540
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:19,860
[James] Check this out.

541
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,060
The United States Air Force
was here too.

542
00:28:24,060 --> 00:28:28,000
You know, maybe
they're listening
to experimental aircraft.

543
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:32,000
Maybe the whole thing is like
a Department of Defense
operation.

544
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,160
I mean, this rabbit hole
just keeps on getting deeper.

545
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,460
[Duane] Let's talk to Ryan
tomorrow when he gets back

546
00:28:37,460 --> 00:28:39,700
-and see what he found out.
-100%.

547
00:28:49,100 --> 00:28:54,000
[Ryan] I just got a call
from a guy who was referred
to me by Jeremy McGowan.

548
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,800
Gave me coordinates,
and he wants to meet me
at a very specific place.

549
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:01,660
He knows where these local
government experiments
are happening,

550
00:29:01,660 --> 00:29:05,460
and he can help me figure out
who put the cylinder
on Blind Frog.

551
00:29:05,460 --> 00:29:08,100
[narrator] In his quest
to learn who is behind

552
00:29:08,100 --> 00:29:10,300
the geophones buried
on the ranch,

553
00:29:10,300 --> 00:29:15,900
Ryan Skinner has arranged
a meet up with a secretive
inside source.

554
00:29:15,900 --> 00:29:19,760
These are the coordinates,
and he said it was going to be
an empty lot.

555
00:29:21,460 --> 00:29:22,630
This is probably it.

556
00:29:25,100 --> 00:29:26,160
Now we wait.

557
00:29:37,060 --> 00:29:38,160
This is probably him.

558
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,100
Here we go.

559
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:01,460
Thanks for meeting me
out here.

560
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,000
-So, like, what's on here?
-Look...

561
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,300
I'm taking a huge risk
doing this.

562
00:30:07,300 --> 00:30:08,760
You got everything you need
on there?

563
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,260
I wish I could tell you more.

564
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:12,260
[Ryan] Yeah, I get it.

565
00:30:38,860 --> 00:30:40,100
I mean, that was crazy.

566
00:30:41,100 --> 00:30:42,260
He didn't want to talk.

567
00:30:42,260 --> 00:30:45,000
He didn't want to tell me
who he was, who he works for.

568
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,060
He gave me this, though.

569
00:30:52,660 --> 00:30:53,660
What is that?

570
00:30:56,700 --> 00:30:59,400
Contractor report.

571
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:03,200
[narrator] The documents
on the flash drive
are old equipment lists

572
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:07,260
for the government
research contractor
Bigelow Aerospace.

573
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,460
[Ryan] Bigelow contractors,

574
00:31:09,460 --> 00:31:11,900
they were actually doing
experiments out here.

575
00:31:11,900 --> 00:31:16,260
[narrator] Bigelow Aerospace
is a spacecraft research
and development company

576
00:31:16,260 --> 00:31:19,400
founded by entrepreneur
Robert Bigelow,

577
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:24,160
the owner of Skinwalker Ranch
from 1996 to 2016,

578
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:28,160
when it was part
of a government-backed
testing program

579
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:32,800
searching for UAPs
that was overseen
by the Pentagon.

580
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,060
Seismic booms.

581
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:48,460
-[Ryan] Hey, guys.
-[Duane] Hey, Ryan.

582
00:31:48,460 --> 00:31:50,200
-Pull you up
a chair there, bud.
-[Charlie] Ryan.

583
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,260
So what did you find
out there?

584
00:31:53,260 --> 00:31:58,500
I contacted a local, uh,
friend, and, uh, this got
very interesting, guys.

585
00:31:58,500 --> 00:32:00,800
[narrator] The informant
gave him a flash drive

586
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,700
containing sensitive
documents,

587
00:32:02,700 --> 00:32:08,300
old equipment lists
for the government contractor,
Bigelow Aerospace,

588
00:32:08,300 --> 00:32:12,360
a spacecraft research
and development company.

589
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:16,660
There were records
of equipment deliveries
linked to Bigelow contractors.

590
00:32:16,660 --> 00:32:20,200
Equipment that sounds exactly
like these cylinders.

591
00:32:22,260 --> 00:32:23,760
Really?

592
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:28,000
There seems to be a definite
link between Bigelow
and this strange cylinder.

593
00:32:29,460 --> 00:32:31,100
So this is really interesting.

594
00:32:31,100 --> 00:32:36,760
Skinner was able to get hold
of a shipping manifest
from Bigelow Aerospace

595
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,800
showing that they
took possession

596
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,560
of something very similar
to that cylinder

597
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,560
that was pulled out
of the ground here
at Blind Frog Ranch.

598
00:32:51,860 --> 00:32:55,460
So you're saying right now
that Blind Frog Ranch

599
00:32:55,460 --> 00:32:57,860
is part of a secret
government program?

600
00:32:57,860 --> 00:32:59,660
There's a definite link
between the two.

601
00:32:59,660 --> 00:33:03,100
This could have been placed
before you
on the ranch out here.

602
00:33:03,100 --> 00:33:07,560
I think the evidence
is pointing to a secret
government program

603
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:11,500
that, uh, Bigelow used
to have over there
on the Skinwalker Ranch.

604
00:33:19,660 --> 00:33:22,460
I'd like to know who they are
and what they're looking for.

605
00:33:22,460 --> 00:33:25,060
I think we need to get
Dr. Segala back out here.

606
00:33:25,060 --> 00:33:26,660
You know, show him
everything we learned.

607
00:33:26,660 --> 00:33:28,960
Yeah, give him a call.
Bring him out here.
It'll be great.

608
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:30,100
Bring him here.

609
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:39,560
Hi, Jim.

610
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,500
-Hello, Jim.
-Good to see you again.

611
00:33:41,500 --> 00:33:43,760
[narrator] Dr. Segala
has returned to the Ranch

612
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,100
to hear what the team
has discovered.

613
00:33:46,100 --> 00:33:48,600
I want to find out
what you did
and what you've seen

614
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,400
and what you felt.
That's really important.

615
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,100
[narrator] The team shares
that the geophone cylinder

616
00:33:53,100 --> 00:33:57,500
had been placed there by a now
defunct Department of Defense
contractor...

617
00:33:59,300 --> 00:34:01,760
...and that the nearby
gravity base Vernal,

618
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,700
which used similar devices,
had been tracking

619
00:34:04,700 --> 00:34:08,560
unknown phenomena
in the skies above Utah.

620
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,360
The new information
gives Dr. Segala an idea

621
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:15,560
of how to determine
what the cylinder
was monitoring.

622
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,260
From things that I've heard,
I think we could figure out

623
00:34:17,260 --> 00:34:18,330
what the heck
he was trying to measure.

624
00:34:18,330 --> 00:34:21,060
-Wow.
-If you could,
that's going to be amazing.

625
00:34:21,060 --> 00:34:23,100
So, a few years ago,
I designed
a piece of equipment

626
00:34:23,100 --> 00:34:25,560
very, very similar
to that cylinder.

627
00:34:26,660 --> 00:34:28,160
So it monitors
microwave energy.

628
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:29,600
It monitors gamma energy.

629
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,960
It monitors
the gravitational vectors.

630
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,900
I propose actually
taking my equipment,

631
00:34:33,900 --> 00:34:36,600
put it exactly where
that cylinder came out,

632
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,060
and then we'll take
all sorts of readings

633
00:34:38,060 --> 00:34:39,860
and try to duplicate
what they were reading.

634
00:34:39,860 --> 00:34:42,760
We have to understand
what these people
monitoring the Ranch here

635
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,260
are looking for.

636
00:34:44,260 --> 00:34:46,760
So Jim Segala is going
to put his sensory device

637
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:48,660
in the same hole
where the cylinder was

638
00:34:48,660 --> 00:34:50,600
and find out what
they were looking for.

639
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,660
That's exactly what we need.
I think that'd be perfect.

640
00:34:53,660 --> 00:34:54,760
Good. Let's do it.

641
00:34:59,500 --> 00:35:01,460
-Here's the power cord
you wanted.
-Thank you.

642
00:35:01,460 --> 00:35:03,100
I gotta plug it
into the generator.

643
00:35:03,100 --> 00:35:06,360
[narrator] Dr. Segala
is preparing to place
his sensor array

644
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,260
in the hole left
by the stolen cylinder.

645
00:35:09,260 --> 00:35:13,000
It will record any changes
in the levels
of electromagnetic

646
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:14,900
and nuclear radiation,

647
00:35:14,900 --> 00:35:19,860
as well as any light radio
or acoustic waves
passing through the area.

648
00:35:19,860 --> 00:35:21,260
[Jim] It will look
for any anomalies.

649
00:35:21,260 --> 00:35:22,900
It has a little AI engine
in there,

650
00:35:22,900 --> 00:35:25,360
so it'll take
the sensor reading
from the gamma rays,

651
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,560
electromagnetic rays, GPS.

652
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,700
Then I know
that there's something
physically going on here.

653
00:35:30,700 --> 00:35:32,060
I'm ready to rock and roll.

654
00:35:32,060 --> 00:35:34,560
Just put it in the hole
and let us start
collecting data.

655
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,860
I want to duplicate whatever
data they were getting
as best I can.

656
00:35:37,860 --> 00:35:40,500
And if I can figure out
what they were looking for,

657
00:35:40,500 --> 00:35:42,660
maybe we can indicate
what's going on in this area.

658
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:46,660
Nice and gentle.

659
00:35:47,660 --> 00:35:48,700
I think we're good.

660
00:35:48,700 --> 00:35:50,760
-Great.
-Let's come back tomorrow.

661
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,100
All right, Jim.
I'll go buy you a beer, man.

662
00:35:53,100 --> 00:35:54,760
-Thanks.
-[laughs]

663
00:36:00,660 --> 00:36:04,560
In the Air Force,
I saw something
that should not have existed.

664
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,760
[narrator] A 2023 study
from the University of Utah

665
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,360
concluded that the state
has one of the highest rates

666
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,660
of UFO sightings
in the country.

667
00:36:20,100 --> 00:36:23,760
And many of those sightings
have occurred
disturbingly close

668
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,560
to American
military installations.

669
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:31,360
While some can be attributed
to high-tech aircraft
and government experiments,

670
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:36,660
other lights in the sky
have left even military
experts flummoxed.

671
00:36:36,660 --> 00:36:39,400
In 2020,
the US Defense Department

672
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:44,660
declassified the Tic Tac,
Gimbal and Go Fast videos.

673
00:36:44,660 --> 00:36:47,000
These encounters
were caught on camera

674
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:51,860
-by US fighter pilots
on three separate occasions.
-[pilot chatter on radio]

675
00:36:51,860 --> 00:36:54,660
[narrator] To this day,
no logical explanation

676
00:36:54,660 --> 00:36:58,600
has been given for these
otherworldly sightings.

677
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,260
[James] Jim, did you find
anything out last night?

678
00:37:12,260 --> 00:37:15,960
Well, I went and I took
this device out of the ground
that we buried last night.

679
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,560
-Yeah.
-[Jim] And it's very
significant data.

680
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,300
And there's no doubt
that there's something really
interesting going on.

681
00:37:21,300 --> 00:37:22,360
Let's see it.

682
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,100
Yeah, fire away.

683
00:37:24,100 --> 00:37:27,760
[narrator] Dr. Segala
has called the team together
to review the results

684
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,400
of his overnight experiment
at the cylinder hole.

685
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:34,100
Basically, these are
the kind of wave forms
that you would see normally.

686
00:37:34,100 --> 00:37:36,900
-So these are baselines.
-[Jim] These are basically
pretty much baselines

687
00:37:36,900 --> 00:37:39,760
of an area that's pretty inert
and not a lot is going on.

688
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,360
-It's just sitting there,
taking data all day long.
-Okay.

689
00:37:43,460 --> 00:37:47,500
Your data for that day
looks like this.

690
00:37:47,500 --> 00:37:50,700
-Whoa. That's nothing alike.
-Those spikes, though.

691
00:37:50,700 --> 00:37:54,960
[Jim] Yes, around
9:00 o'clockish,
we put it in the hole

692
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,660
As soon as it went
in the hole,

693
00:37:56,660 --> 00:38:00,760
you can see here
the magnetic field
started oscillating

694
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,700
about every hour
it went up and down.

695
00:38:03,700 --> 00:38:07,000
And haven't ever
really seen that happen

696
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:08,200
in a very short
period of time.

697
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,060
[Chad] What causes
this, though?

698
00:38:12,060 --> 00:38:14,360
Something that perturbed
the magnetic field.

699
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,700
There was something above it
flying around

700
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,160
that made this thing jump.

701
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:23,800
Something pretty powerful.

702
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,260
-Jetliners can't do it.
Drones can't do it.
-No.

703
00:38:26,260 --> 00:38:29,700
There's not anything
that you know of
that can actually do that,

704
00:38:29,700 --> 00:38:32,460
except something energetic,
maybe like a UFO sighting.

705
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,860
So, Jim, are you talking
about UFO's?

706
00:38:36,860 --> 00:38:38,200
That's what I'm thinking.

707
00:38:41,860 --> 00:38:45,160
I think we're in
over our heads on this still.

708
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:48,200
I mean, this area
is a hotspot.

709
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,460
Out here at night,
you start seeing
all kinds of crazy stuff.

710
00:38:51,460 --> 00:38:54,800
But for you to back this up
with the data just is wild.

711
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,660
Yeah. And I have another
interesting picture.
I want you guys to see this.

712
00:38:58,660 --> 00:39:00,360
Now, this is sound.

713
00:39:01,100 --> 00:39:03,160
Now, during
that period of time,

714
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:04,500
there was a whole
bunch of sound.

715
00:39:04,500 --> 00:39:07,600
Something was going on
along the ground.
It was like shaking it.

716
00:39:08,460 --> 00:39:10,300
That sound is coming
from below,

717
00:39:10,300 --> 00:39:12,100
and it might have an answer
for the rumble

718
00:39:12,100 --> 00:39:13,600
that you've been hearing
on the property.

719
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,300
Are you saying
that we have anomalies

720
00:39:15,300 --> 00:39:18,460
below ground and above ground
here at the Ranch?

721
00:39:18,460 --> 00:39:21,760
Yes, you've got anomalies
happening underground
in the form of rumblings

722
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,700
and above ground in the form
of electromagnetic energy.

723
00:39:25,500 --> 00:39:26,930
Huh.

724
00:39:26,930 --> 00:39:31,400
So Jim Segala monitored
some huge electric anomaly
coming from the sky

725
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,400
that we know was not
an airplane or a helicopter.

726
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,000
And it was every hour
on the hour.

727
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:40,100
It was almost like
a heartbeat from the sky.

728
00:39:40,100 --> 00:39:43,000
And then in response
to all this stuff,

729
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,860
there was like a vibration
from the ground.

730
00:39:47,660 --> 00:39:49,300
So what do I think about it?

731
00:39:49,300 --> 00:39:52,560
I think it has to do something
with, uh, UFOs.

732
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,360
And the only reason I think
any of this is plausible,

733
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,160
is 'cause I've seen [bleep]
out here that doesn't make
any sense.

734
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,460
[man] Look at that there,
right there.

735
00:40:00,460 --> 00:40:03,100
So I believe from this data
that you've got

736
00:40:03,100 --> 00:40:05,400
some very strange things
going on in this Ranch.

737
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:10,860
Lots of people have seen UFOs
or UAPs, whatever the hell
you want to call them.

738
00:40:10,860 --> 00:40:12,560
Hell, I've seen stuff
with my own eyes

739
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,600
that I damn sure
couldn't explain.

740
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,500
The fact that the government's
watching this still

741
00:40:17,500 --> 00:40:19,800
definitely puts it in
a new light.

742
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:23,560
[Chad] Now that we know
that an intruder isn't trying
to steal our treasure,

743
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:28,360
we can get back on the hunt
for a way to get into
the underwater cavern system.

744
00:40:29,500 --> 00:40:32,700
I know my dad wants to find
this gold just as bad as I do.

745
00:40:32,700 --> 00:40:37,360
And I want to be the one
to tell him that we finally
found that treasure.

746
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,560
I'm not stopping until I find
that gold.

747
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:40,700
Y'all in?

748
00:40:40,700 --> 00:40:42,130
-You bet.
-We're with you.

749
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,260
-Let's get out there
and let's see what we've got.
-[Chad] Okay.

750
00:40:49,660 --> 00:40:52,660
[narrator] Next time
on Blind Frog Ranch...

751
00:40:52,660 --> 00:40:53,830
There could be an entrance
to a cave here.

752
00:40:53,830 --> 00:40:55,860
[narrator]
...continuing their search
for an opening

753
00:40:55,860 --> 00:40:56,900
into the treasure chamber.

754
00:40:56,900 --> 00:40:59,160
This looks like it could be
a fire ground.

755
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:03,000
[narrator] They uncover a dark
and violent past.

756
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:04,960
That means there's something
of value here.

757
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:06,900
Something worth dying over.

758
00:41:06,900 --> 00:41:09,260
This is like deadly weapons
or obsidian blades

759
00:41:09,260 --> 00:41:11,760
or specifically used
for ceremonial purposes.

760
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:14,500
[narrator]
While an old friend...

761
00:41:14,500 --> 00:41:17,100
-Look at this. It's one
of our Blind frogs.
-[bleep]

762
00:41:17,100 --> 00:41:18,760
Two more frogs.

763
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:20,960
[narrator] ...shows them
a path into the underground.

764
00:41:22,500 --> 00:41:23,800
With shocking results.

765
00:41:25,460 --> 00:41:27,700
-[man] Whoa!
-Whoa!

766
00:41:27,700 --> 00:41:28,960
[bleep]
