All language subtitles for The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch S01E04

Something's caused
so much interference that

a $35,000 drone couldn't
connect to his controls.

Means there's a transmitter
here somewhere.

Where is this transmitter?

I get my biggest readings
looking up.

It's coming from the sky.

The measurements
lead us to a spot

one‐mile high over the ranch.
Start letting it go.

So, we can tether
a weather balloon,

raise it up and see
if we see something there.

So, what's disturbing
is it has to come

from something off planet;
it's not something

that humans have created
on the face of the Earth.

This is homestead one.

‐Hey there.
‐Come on in.

Two weeks ago, Tom and Kandus

reported strange noises
coming from the basement.

I was able to punch a
small hole through the wall...

‐What is that?
‐..and we discovered
that there was

possibly a room there.

I don't know
what the black stuff is.

It looks like there's been
a fire in there.

It does.
‐Well, yeah, it almost looks

‐like a cremation.
‐It looks like ash.

Hey, hold on a minute.

What are those white pieces
right there?

It looks a lot like bones.

Bones?

There is a ranch
in Northern Utah.

It is considered the epicenter

of the strangest and most
disturbing phenomena on Earth

animal mutilations,

bizarre UFO sightings

and unusual energies that have
proven harmful to humans.

For 20 years,
the federal government

tried to find answers
and failed.

Now a new team
of dedicated scientists,

researchers and experts
has taken over.

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

...The Secret
of Skinwalker Ranch.

Right there, perfect.

Don't‐don't move.
Just stop right there.

There's actually
something on the concrete

that looks like bones.

‐Do you see that?
Mm‐hmm.

I mean, it could be remains,
cremation remains.

That's what I'm thinking.

That's what it looks like.

What in the world?

Tom, see if you can lower it.

Thomas Winterton asked me
to come with him

over to what they call
Homestead One.

Homestead One is right next
to the command center,

and it's where
the two caretakers,

Kandus Linde and her boyfriend,
Tom Lewis, live.

Keep going.
You're right on top of it.

Kandus and Tom have been
hearing a series

of strange noises
coming from the basement,

where there's this room

completely walled off
with concrete

several inches thick.

So, Thomas and I got
this snake cam,

and we're putting this camera

down in there to see whatever
this box was built for.

A little bit. Yeah, go that way.
You're going the right way.

‐Stop! Right there, stop!
Oh, wait, the...

At about three feet in,

there was a pile,
and it looked like ash,

and maybe it even looks
like remnants of bones.

That's just downright spooky.

All the ash around that
and the‐the burnt.

It looks like there was
a fire in there.

‐What in the world would...?
Mm‐hmm.

Yeah, that is weird.

Yeah, and with
all the crazy things

that have happened
in this house.

There are so many things
about this house

that just don't add up.

‐Yeah.
‐Yeah, yeah.

Yep.

We moved to the ranch
about three months ago

to be caretakers.

And the house we live in
is pretty spooky.

We've heard some strange things.

We've heard strange noises
coming from the basement.

We've heard strange vibrations
from the ground.

The sounds have
mostly been at night.

There's been knock sounds
in the house,

‐like the...
‐

One time, it was coming
from under the floor

in the kitchen,
like from the basement.

It was the triple knock,
and I was standing...

I could feel it,
the vibration of it.

People that lived
in the house before us,

the Shermans,

I have heard some strange things
about their experience.

They had UFO sightings,

very strange light orbs,

cattle mutilations.

There's been
so many strange things

that have happened here.

Well, the big question is

why the hell they built
the thing to begin with.

It makes no sense.
‐It makes no sense.

I've wondered

what the need was for
such thick‐‐ I mean, this is,

‐this is almost two feet thick.
Yeah.

That tells you just
how strong it is.

That's heavy‐duty something.

So, it makes me wonder,

what are the purposes
you build a concrete,

you know, rectangular box for?

‐Yeah.
‐So, we need to

knock that hole out right there.

And then we can get in and see
what's really in there.

Yeah, I think we ought to

just saw through that,
open that up.

‐Yeah.
‐All right.

Now, at first, seeing something

like tiny bones
just makes me think

some kind of animal died,
but how could anything

get inside a completely
sealed‐up concrete room?

And what explains the pile
of what looks like ashes?

This wall was not
coming down easy.

Whoever did this wanted
to either seal something in

or keep something out.

One thing I have to say
about Tom Winterton

is this guy is tough as nails.

I mean, even with all
the health scares he's had

on the ranch, it doesn't
stop him from jumping in

feet first and doing what
it takes to get stuff done.

Normally, dealing with

this kind of stuff
wouldn't seem unusual to me.

But the three weeks
I've been up here,

I've seen everything from

strange glowing lights
at night...

That's a definite beam.

It is clearly a beam
going across there.

...to RF radiation spikes
that are extreme.

It is going nuts.

It's coming from up there.

It seemed to be coming
from high above the ranch

with no apparent
scientific explanation.

We all still don't have a clue
what we're dealing with here.

One of the weirdest things
about this chamber

underneath
Tom and Kandus's house,

it's perfectly clean
inside this box.

There are no water lines,

there's no mold,
there's no dirt on the floor.

There's nothing.
It looks like it's brand‐new.

And we found this pile
in just a tiny spot.

How did those things
get in there?

So, when you first
looked through that hole,

I understand that
we thought we were looking

at a pile, one pile in the,

basically in the middle
of this...

‐That's right.
Yes.

So the room was almost
completely clean.

It was pristine.

And sealed...
‐Yeah.

‐...for a long time, yeah.
‐So, what would've,

what would've organized it
into a pile like that?

‐I don't know.
‐It's a good question.

Yeah.

After we finally managed
to poke a hole big enough

that we could crawl
into this chamber

in the basement
of Tom and Kandus's house...

You got a spoon?
I'll scoop some out.

We got a Petri here.

...I used a dustpan

and some, uh, plastic bags

to sweep up a sample
of some of this material.

Now we can look at it
under a microscope

and see what it is.

What the heck is all this stuff?

All right, so just kind of

scroll around, Erik, just...

Right about...

somewhere in there.

You're slightly out of focus.

Yeah.

Stop right there.

‐Whoa.
‐Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
‐What?

Whoa.
Oh, wow, look at that.

Do you think that's a tooth?

It's either a tooth or a rib.

's get
Yeah, look at that.

That's a bone, man.
That's clearly a bone.

So is this a bone
right here, this...?

‐Yeah, that's a bone.
‐And that is.

It's definitely hair, you know?

Yeah, that's hair.
Yeah, right here.

‐Can you push the...
I can.

Or can you translate
the microscope? Whichever.

Stop right there.

‐Oh, those are bone fragments.
Well,

‐and it looks like
gnaw marks, too.
Ugh.

‐It's either a tooth or a rib.
This thing here?

Yeah.
Yeah.

I don't know.

Hard to tell what kind
of bone that is, I mean.

Move it around some more, Erik.

Okay, if you see anything
you want to dive into,

‐this is as low a magnification
as we can...
‐Oh, really?

Yeah, we can actually go much,
much further in if you want.

Uh, why don't we look
at that black piece

‐right there.
All right.

That right there.

Let's see what that is.

I wonder if that's, like, um,

flesh or skin.

‐That's what it looks like.
Looks like

it's been in there a while,
though, right?

Yeah, for a long time.
Yeah.

That's like a tomb.
Mm‐hmm.
Yeah.

Right? And the‐the air's dry,

and so it could be desiccated
and pretty much mummified.

I mean, that could have been
there for years, and we...

and you wouldn't know it.

I mean, if it was recent,
you would've

‐smelled it.
‐Yeah.

Lots and lots of bone fragments.

The fact that it's fragmented
is interesting

because what would have had
to play out

in that cellar
in order for these bones

to be crushed up like this?

‐What in the world?
Talk about

‐a crime scene.
Yeah.
Mm‐hmm.

Somebody or something
could have done this?

‐It has to be a possibility.
Yeah,

‐but that thing was sealed.
‐But how? But how?

‐How would they get in?
‐How? Right?

Well, and that reddish stuff

looks wet still, like if it's...

‐Blood.
Blood.

What does that look like
to you, Erik?

Would it be reasonable

to interpret this as animal,

or could you interpret it
as possibly being human?

Uh... you know what?

‐I don't think so.
No.

I‐I mean...
They're too small.

They're way too small
to be anything in a human.

What's really strange
about these bone fragments

is that there's not enough
of them

to make a complete skeleton.

I mean, if some small animal

was able to crawl in
and die in there,

why are there only
bone fragments?

And why do they look
like they've been burned?

And none of this explains why
Tom and Kandus have been hearing

strange knocking sounds
at night.

I say let's move forward.
Let's keep moving.

Okay.

Another mystery to figure out.

Today's a pretty big day
on the ranch.

We have a couple trucks
bringing some cattle on,

probably around 40 head.

Cattle play quite a role

in the history
of Skinwalker Ranch,

and with tales of UFOs
and paranormal,

it does get
a little bit spooky.

It's a known fact
that there have been

numerous cattle mutilations
on this property.

You know,
daylight cattle mutilations

going back to the 1930s.

We're talking very
surgically precise dissections

of these cattle.

They were drained
of their blood,

and there was no blood
to be found underneath them.

Shortly after Mr. Bigelow
purchased the property,

they installed observation
towers and bait pens.

They are quite ominous‐lookin.

There are three
that span the entire property.

These towers
and the enclosures around them

with razor wire
were really installed

for the purpose of using
livestock as biosensors.

With UFO activity
over the property coupled with

constant cattle mutilations,

they felt there would be
an environment

that would exist that would
allow them to, I think,

more closely capture
the phenomena at work.

Most of what Mr. Bigelow
and his team

studied and reported
on the ranch remains

either classified
or confidential

and is locked away.

‐Hey, Kelly.
‐How are you, Mr. Tom?

‐Good to see you.
‐Good to see you today.

Looks like you got
a couple trailers, huh?

Yes, sir.

If you can take
and swing around the pole...

‐Okay.
‐...and then back straight in,

does that look like
it would work for you?

‐We'll make her work.
‐Okay.

You know,
each cow we bring on is another

biosensor that we can use
for science purposes.

Animals seem to have
that sixth sense to them,

and when we observe an anomaly
here on the ranch,

we can monitor
their behavior patterns

before and after that occurre.

Okay, so, back up a little bit.

We'll be able to see
exactly where they are,

if there's any strange behaviors
in the cattle,

and see if they react
any differently to the land.

But also we're keeping
a close eye on things

because there has been
cattle mutilations.

Oh!

Oh, oh, oh!

Got it.

I think that'll work.

‐Yeah, I think...
‐You ready to let 'em go?

I think that'll be perfect.

Uh, Kelly, this is, uh,
Tom and Kandus.

‐Kandus.
‐Kandus.
‐Tom.

‐Tom.
‐So, uh, Tom and Kandus

are actually the ones
that live here on‐site,

and, uh, they're kind of
our eyes and ears.

I've known Tom Lewis
and Kandus Linde

for most of my life.
We grew up together.

Kandus went on to become
a very accomplished

and published anthropologist,

and Tom is
a recognized technologist

that works with a number
of large companies.

So, this summer
we're gonna have Tom and Kandus

helping monitor

the behavior of the cows,
which is gonna be nice.

They're here on the ranch,

and they're gonna be able
to keep much closer track

on exactly what
these cattle are doing.

Get them out?
‐Yeah, you know what?

Let's take these first 15,

and we'll put them back
in this back corral.

And then, uh,
that way we can get 'em

in the squeeze chute
and get the trackers on 'em.

And then we'll just run the rest
of 'em straight on through.

‐You got it.
‐So...

One of you guys want
to make sure the gate's open

‐in that far back corral?
‐You got it.

Before I came to the ranch,

I had done some research
on the place.

Heard some very strange storis

about cattle being shoved
inside this trailer

back when the Shermans
lived here.

The Sherman family

were ranchers
who lived on the ranch.

They were out in the area

where the cattle
were corralled.

They walked away.

And minutes later, they retur.

The cattle were nowhere
to be found.

After a search, they found thm

inside a trailer, penned up,

standing perfectly still,

nonresponsive,

catatonic.

Okay. So we're good to go ahead
and let 'em...

Let 'em roll.
Let 'em go.

Come on, sis.

‐ Yeah. Get on.
‐

Huh!

‐Come on, girls.
‐Come on. Huh!

Huh! Come on.

If the history of this property

is any guide,
I'm very interested

to see how these cattle
will behave on this ranch

and, more importantly,

how this ranch will behave
with these cattle here.

Okay.

Good job.

William, come on.
Come on, William.

SEGA Think we're all good. rted
We just need rockets. .

It's gonna be interesting.

‐Gonna be awesome.
Last week,

after we determined

that some kind
of intense RF radiation

is coming from about a mile
above the ranch...

All right. You guys ready?

‐Yep, we're good.
‐Yeah, good to go.

...the team and I
devised an experiment

where we sent up
a weather balloon

outfitted with a TriField meter
and a GPS tracker

‐to try and identify
the source.
‐

Oh, that is perfect.

I say we pack up
and go back and try

and track it on the Internet.

But suddenly,

just when it reached
the target area,

‐the balloon
stopped transmitting data.
‐Wow.

The whole thing
just seemed to disappear.

‐Hey, fellas.
‐Did you bring us our rockets?

Yes, we did.

So, now we're gonna try
and repeat

the experiment,
but this time using rockets.

Guys, I want y'all to meet
Miss Kaitlin Russell.

So, she's a rocket builder
extraordinaire,

so I got her to help us out.

‐Well, welcome
to Skinwalker Ranch.
‐Thanks.

Kaitlin is one of the interns
who works with me

at the University of Alabama
in Huntsville.

She's been studying
aerospace engineering

and rocketry,
so I thought she'd be helpful

working with us
on this experiment.

So, I'm really fascinated
to see what you guys are using

and how we're fitting
this stuff inside.

‐That's gonna be cool.
‐Yeah.

So I'm thinking we're gonna have

an SDR in one,

maybe the spectrum analyzer,

maybe a gamma ray detector.

‐That sound good to y'all?
I love rockets.

‐Yeah.
‐Let's do it.

All right, well,
let's unload this stuff

‐and get it over there.
‐Okay. Go.

Just grab something,
and‐‐ here‐‐

we'll bucket brigade it.

You know, take that.

Why don't you go ahead
and lay out the motors.

Jim said he's gonna want to use
my phone for something.

Hey, guys?

All the cows
just happened to come and look.

Is that the craziest thing?

They wanted to see
the rocket launch, too.

Explain to me
how you've got this

‐set up.
‐So, we have

spectrum analyzers, which read
electromagnetic energy

and reports it back
in what we call a spectrum.

And the way it works is
that you hook up a phone to it,

you run a special app,

you put it in the nose cone
and pray that it comes back,

‐and you take that reading.
‐Cool.

The data
on the spectrum analyzer

will be recorded
directly into a cell phone.

And if our earlier data's
correct,

it'll show that the higher
the rocket travels,

the more intense

the RF radiation levels
will become.

Right there.

‐You ready to go? Let's do it.
We're ready to go.

Look at that wind sock
and see if it's changed any.

It's coming from the south.

Give this a little more angle.

When I first came here
to Skinwalker Ranch, I found

that some of the members
of the team had been

so spooked by all the
strange things going on here,

they were really reluctant
to do any experiments

that might trigger
some kind of negative energy.

I have to say no digging.

My‐my grandmother
used to always say

a hornets' nest
isn't interesting

until you poke it with a stick.

‐Right?
Okay, well,

what kind of hornets
were you dealing with?

All right, we're hot here.

But now, given
all the information

we've been gathering lately,

they're not only willing
to poke the hornets' nest.

They're eager to do it.

So, we are ready to launch.

Inserting the safety key.

It's good.

So, let's do a launch

in three, two,

one, ignition.

‐Oh, yeah!
‐Holy smokes!

There it goes!

Uh‐oh.

Watch your head!

Watch your noggin!

This rocket hasn't gone as high
as it was supposed to.

And so it didn't reach a point
where the chute could pop.

That's what you call a missile.

‐I'll go get it.
All right.

Radios on!

It's gonna land in the canal.

You got eyes on it, Tom?

It's...

over here a ways.

Hey, Dragon, Tom,

you guys find it yet?

Oh, there she is.

Yep, we're almost to it.

That's destroyed.

Hey, Travis,

we're certainly not taking
this rocket up again.

Oh, man.

Our first test
was a complete bust.

Oh, this thing is hosed.

The spectrum analyzer's
all banged up,

and the on/off switch
is missing. It's had it.

Did we record, though?
I want to see if...

Well, that'd be great
if we got some data.

I sure hope
the spectrum analyzer

got enough data to the phone
before it hit the ground,

and maybe we can get some data
off of it.

Let's get the next rocket going,

and we'll launch it.

Hey, rockets fail.

That's why we have more of 'e.

So we just have to do
another test.

That's how it works.

Erik, you're up.

We're gonna do
your instrument next.

This is a gamma ray detector,

and we've outfitted it to be
as light as it can be

and as small as it can be.

For our second launch,

we decided to go forward

with Erik's idea to test
not only for RF radiation

but also for gamma rays.

After RF, there's infrared,

visible, ultraviolet,

and, finally, gamma rays.

Now, gamma radiation
is very dangerous to humans,

so if the test
comes back positive,

it could mean
we're all in real danger

just being out here
on Skinwalker Ranch.

So, if we have gamma rays
detected during flight,

it'll show up
in a sound recording.

So, what would it sound like?

Oh. Sounds
just like a Geiger counter.

‐Exactly.
‐But we'll be able
to get the waveform.

So we can analyze it and see
if we can find out what...

If it changes with altitude
or whatever, right?

I'm really interested
in comparing

the readings that we get
down here at ground level

with those that we get
at altitude to see if, in fact,

we are getting gamma rays.

If they're coming from altitude,

the amount should increase
the higher we get.

‐But if they're coming
from the ground...
‐If they're coming

from the ground, it'll decrease.
This will tell us something.

‐Right?
That's right. Sure.

‐All right. Let's go.
‐All right.

Yeah, this is
a very fragile setup.

So we need to really protect it.

We are about ready to go launch
another one, folks.

Look at the cows.

That is the strangest thing.

Just before we started
to fire the rockets,

the cows
are acting very strangely.

They were running
across the field,

grouping together, fighting.

That's crazy.

Here they've crammed themselves

into the northeast corner
of the ranch.

They couldn't possibly get
any closer to one another.

And they're behaving

as if they've been agitated
by something.

Never seen that before.

‐Look, look, look, look!
What is that?

‐What is that?
We got‐‐
we got something. Hold on.

It's a plane, I think.

‐It's gone.
‐Nah, that wasn't a plane.

We'd still see it

‐if it was a plane.
What the hell was that?

Was that not crazy?

I don't know what that was,

but it wasn't an airplane,

and it wasn't something that
would be easily explained away.

It was this really, really
bright translucent ball.

And then it just‐‐ shoop‐‐
just disappeared

into a single point,
like it vanished off

into the sky or something.

What was that?
‐It was a bright...

What time is it?
Kaitlin,
did you see that?

The guys want to stand around
and keep looking for these UFOs

popping up in the sky,
but I'm telling 'em,

"Look, if it's happening now,
we need to get the instruments

in the sky so we can really
measure what's going on."

All right, well, let's launch
and see what happens.

Three, two,

one, ignition.

Oh, yeah!
Holy smokes.

Uh‐oh.

‐Oh, man.
‐Uh‐oh.
‐One, two, three,

four, five.

‐Perfect.
Good chute!

‐Yes!
‐Yeah!
‐

Man, we may have real data

while we saw a UFO.

This is our hero rocket
right here.

‐Awesome.
All the time
I've spent

on this ranch, I've
never really seen anything.

But right now

I, I actually saw

what I would consider a UFO.

It's right on the other side
of the bush, I think.

Right there!

Oh, Tom found it!

For years,
I've heard hundreds of stories

about UFO sightings
at Skinwalker Ranch,

but‐‐ I have to admit‐‐
I thought they were

all just products of someone's
overactive imagination.

I never thought I'd
actually see one in person.

We saw a UFO.

Dude, that was incredible.

‐Did you see it?
‐I did.

Well,
what do you make out of it?

It wasn't an airplane,
or we'd've still been seeing it.

Well, there was no contrail.

No sound.

I'm hopeful
that we can evaluate it

frame by frame
and perhaps understand better

whether it's something
of mundane origin

or something very different.

Guys,

we may have just got
some real data

while we saw a UFO.

Is that not crazy?

Seriously,
this is all fine and dandy,

but I'm still dumbfounded

that, looking up in the sky,

I see this thing.

It turns,
it glints in the sunlight

and then, basically,
without going anywhere,

just vaporizes into nothing.

Who knows?
We may have caused that.

We may have caused whatever
to react and show itself.

Well, you know what, too?

I think everybody tells us
don't dig

because something bad's
gonna happen.

Well, who's been poking
the hole up in the air?

‐Yep, we're digging up.
‐Maybe it causes the same...

‐phenomenon.
‐Stick.

Hornets' nest.

Hey, if that's your stick,
feel free.

We just saw a UFO, dude.

Well, look at the cows.

They're all crammed
in the corner

as far away from that area
where that thing was

as they can possibly get.

And their behavior this entire
afternoon is very abnormal.

Now I'm starting to wonder‐‐

did our rocket experiments
simply get our eyes

looking upwards so that we saw
the UFO by coincidence?

Or did the rocket
actually do something

to cause the UFO
to become more visible?

If so, maybe we can get the UFO
to show itself again.

Know what I say we do?

Launch another rocket.

I would say put it back up,

just as it is.
It records for 300 hours.

Oh, it's still recording?

300 hours, it'll record for.

Well, let's just put
another motor in, repack it,

‐and launch it again.
‐Absolutely.

Hey, it's back.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

‐I don't see it.
What the hell is it?

Where is it?

Right there.

That might be a jet.

‐Oh, there it is again.
‐There it is again!
There it is again!

‐It's in the same spot.
It's still
in the same spot.

It's still in the same spot!

Oh. Wow.
Right there.

‐Yeah.
‐Right there.
There you go.

Is that another plane
flying to the side?

It's like
it's tracing it or tracking it.

Now it's kind of veering off
of it a little.

‐Oh! Look at that, look at that!
Oh, my gosh!
‐

What is that?

This one phenomena‐‐

whatever you want to call it‐‐

looks like it's following
a commercial airliner.

‐I'm gonna go inside and look.
‐It's fading out.
‐Yeah.

‐It's fading out. It's gone.
‐All right.

What the heck?

As quickly as I could get
into the control room,

I looked
at the flight transponder data

for all nearby aircraft,
and I wasn't able to identify

a particular aircraft
with the bright objects

that we see off to the west.

‐There's no other traffic there.
‐There's no other traffic?

There's no object on the radar

showing up next to that plane.

Did we just have
two UFO sightings

in a period of ten minutes?

It was in approximately
the same part

of the sky as the first time.

There's absolutely no cloud
cover to block anything.

There's nothing in the way.

So, to go in and out is,

‐like, why would it do that?
‐Yeah, that‐‐

In the same spot.
I mean, if it's flying,

it's got to be moving.

‐We're gonna need this.
‐Fine.

Uh, you got the ignitor.
We're good to go.

‐Yeah.
‐Does anybody feel
any queasiness

or anything like that?

Are you feeling queasy?

Almost like motion sick,
a little bit.

What does that thing say?

Wait, what is that?
Heart rate's high.

Your blood pressure's
a little bit elevated, dude.

Yeah, you're‐you're‐‐

You got so much adrenaline and
stuff going through your body,

probably, but your heart rate

and your blood pressure's
a little bit high.

It's not hot out. You haven't
really traveled that much

or climbed that much, so I think
whatever you're feeling,

it's‐‐ you don't normally feel
this way.

It's very possible
that something induced that,

which could be a function
of what we just saw.

Really curious
if something shows up.
‐You okay?
‐Yeah, I'm okay.

‐I just... I'm okay.
‐All right, well, let's do this.

Let's get out there
and launch this rocket

before the phenomena goes away.

‐Okay, sorry about that.
‐No, no, no, no.

No, don't apologize.
Let's just do... let's just go.

I'm glad you spoke up.

A couple of weeks ago,

I experienced the same queasy
feelings that Dragon just had.

Tom Winterton's
been hospitalized twice

due to something that causes
his scalp to literally swell up

and separate from his skull.

What kind of
energy can cause this?

I mean, we're really
playing with fire here.

Three,

two, one. Ignition!

Oh, that's beautiful!
‐Come on, baby.

As long as we're here
and all set up,

I want to get this experiment
launched one more time.

This way, we can monitor
if there are consistencies

in the data we're collecting,
or if there are anomalies.

So far, all the data
has been pretty consistent.

Some kind of intense
RF radiation is coming at us

from somewhere
high above the ranch.

Boom!
Yeah!

Good chute!

Awesome, right?

I can't wait to get in and let's
start looking at the data.

I know what I saw today.

And I would love to see it,
if we have it on camera.

Did you...? Let's look at the
surveillance footage and see

‐if there's something in it.
Sure.

This camera is in

the east field,
basically to the southwest.

Okay.

What we saw should appear,

if it was recorded,
in this part of the sky.

‐Mm‐hmm.
‐Well, if we're gonna see it,

this is a great angle.

Based on my recollection,

it was no higher
than that in the sky.

I'm really curious
if something shows up before...

Oh, oh, oh, over here.
Over here.

Right there.

‐You guys see that up there?
Yup, yup, yup, yup.

‐Yup.
If we can zoom in...

Well, I mean, it's right there.

This doesn't
do it justice, though,

‐because it was...
Well...

It seemed like
it was so brilliant in the sky.

Yeah.
Yup.

‐Let it play real time.
Play real time.

There it is.
‐There it is.

One, two, three, four, five,

‐six, seven, eight, nine.
Yup.

‐Ten. Ten seconds.
‐That's it.

The speeds that it was traveling

to get from point
to point for ten seconds‐‐

this thing could have gone
all the way across our screen,

‐but it didn't. It stayed still.
‐Yup.

I'm still blown away

by the fact that Erik,
you were able to have

camera footage of it. That way,
I know for a fact I wasn't

‐just imagining it.
‐You got to see a UFO, dude.

Like, dumbfounded.
Yeah, it's crazy.

We had some things
that we have yet to interpret.

Well, we've got
to see this data.

‐Yeah, so...
We ready?
Yeah, let's move on.

So, to begin with, we're looking
at the Geiger counter data.

We're looking at gamma hits.

‐Here?
‐Yeah.

Each of these vertical lines‐‐
gamma hit.

What we see before launch
can be compared

to what we see
during the flight,

and then again,
to what we see on the ground.

So, I would ask you.
What do you see?

It looks very concentrated
right here.

At the apogee,
this thing was screaming.

Holy cow!

What it means is there was

an immense amount of energy
for some reason

that was suddenly on
and then suddenly off.

‐Yeah.
‐And then, when we got up

to about 1,000 feet, we measured

an increase
in the electromagnetic radiation

that was there.

We measured an increase in
the gamma rays that were there.

But I want to point out
that this is at altitude,

at 1,000 feet up in the air,

which says
that as you increase altitude,

you get much more energy
than we have down here.

‐Yup.
‐Just to be clear,

normally,
anywhere else in the world,

if you increase in altitude,
you should see a decrease.

That's right.

So, that does suggest there are
more gammas at altitude.

Right, it implies something

about the location
of the source.

We got closer
to a gamma ray source

as we flew into the sky.

‐Yeah.
‐So, there is

a concentration
of energy above the ranch.

And I want to just

point out that a lot
of these readings took place

when we started to see
the strange objects in the sky.

Wow.

At a high enough concentratio,

gamma radiation can be deadly.

But where is it coming from?

And could it be connected
in some way

to this UFO we just saw?

Do y'all realize
what we are looking at here?

Not only do we see the event
with our eyes.

We catch it on video, the cows
apparently felt something.

‐Yes.
‐'Cause they moved.

And we have scientific
instruments corroborating

that there is an anomaly
in energy at the same time.

I don't believe in UFOs, period,

but we were all there,
and our eyes saw this.

Yeah, that's the thing, yes.

We all saw this
with the other instruments.

‐That's right.
‐Every little men‐in‐black thing

you can come up with
to explain it away, just...

It just... is vanishing.

I mean, this is like
a breakthrough, guys.

That is very important data
right there.

I know that every time we get
exceptional footage like this,

Brandon wants
to see it immediately.

‐I'm sending it off now.
‐Yeah, do that,

and then,
let's give him a shout,

see what he has to say.

Dragon.

‐Hey, Mr. Fugal.
‐How are things going?

Erik just sent you
some files, Brandon.

You should see if you can
get 'em and open 'em up.

‐All right.
‐Watch in the upper

right‐hand corner
of the video closely.

This is the second of the

unidentified object sightings
that we saw today.

All five of us, without a doubt,
saw the same thing.

We also measured
simultaneous anomalies.

We measured gamma rays.

We measured, uh, anomalies in
the RF and microwave spectrum.

‐Cows.
‐Oh, and‐and all the cows‐‐

that's right‐‐
ran from one side of the field

and got as far east
as they could get.

No, it's not following, uh,
orbital motion at all.

Well, the fact
of the matter that

all five of us, looking out,
and we see this object.

It appeared
to move a little bit,

and then get either larger
or just more vibrant,

and it stayed there
for a moment,

and then basically dissipated
and disappeared into nothing.

Shortly thereafter,

I started to get nauseous,
almost like I was motion sick.

You know, I don't know
if I was maybe affected

by some of the energy
that was in the area

that we picked up
on the other instruments.

You know, I appreciate
you asking that question.

I actually feel really good.

I'm profoundly just shaken
by the whole experience

because I don't even know what
to do to make sense of it.

Growing up,
I never saw a ghost.

I really never had a paranormal
or supernatural experience.

It wasn't until
being involved with the ranch

that I had my first experience
that I could not deny.

It was a couple of years ago,

right above the mesa.

We saw in broad daylight

what could only be described
as a UFO.

40, 50‐foot‐long,

silver or grayish
disc‐like craft

that moved
in the blink of an eye

from one position
to the other.

And then, within 20 seconds,
was completely gone.

None of us were expecting it.

The fact
that the entire team saw this

and have camera surveillance
footage‐‐ this changes

our investigation
at Skinwalker Ranch.

‐All right, thank you.
Good evening.

‐Thanks, Brandon.
‐Thanks, Brandon.

I am emotionally and physically

‐just wiped out.
‐Yeah.

I'm so excited,
but I'm also exhausted.

Stories out there claim

that when Robert Bigelow owned
the ranch,

one of the more incredible
theories that they considered

was that all
of the strange phenomena

that happened here was
the result of some kind

of interdimensional
or trans‐dimensional portal

that exists somewhere
on the property.

Now, I'm pretty skeptical
about most things.

But after today,
I'm beginning to wonder.

I mean, could we have just

all seen
firsthand physical evidence

that something like that
could really be true?

‐You guys get out of here.
Go get some rest.
‐Great work.

I'm so excited about this.

There's so much activity

going on at this exact moment
of seeing this UFO.

It really makes me think
that there is something

associated with this craft

and the things that we're
seeing here on the ground.

After years of seeing nothing,

in a matter of minutes,
I've seen two UFOs that

are undeniable
and seen by many witnesses.

‐What the hell is it?
This is insane.

Oh, yeah.
‐It's right where
the sky transitions.

This is the first time that

we visually saw a UFO,

and at the same time,
on our instruments,

recorded the effects
of the UFO.

Now I'm at the point
where I'm saying,

"This is more than just

some anomalous activity."

This is something
that's happening

that's much, much bigger.

Are we alone?

Do we live in
a multidimensional universe?

Are we being visited, or
are we being interacted with?

Skinwalker Ranch,
I believe, is an incredible

living laboratory or place

where some of these questions
may be answered,

or at least better understood.

‐My phone's freaking out.
It's as if someone was

pushing the buttons and
switching between applications.

There is a bunch of energy,

and the source could be
under Skinwalker Ranch.

We need to do
ground‐penetrating radar

to see what's down there.

So, this is a big anomaly here.

This looks like
a two‐story facility.

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

‐Don't lift it up.
I had burn spots

coming up on my skin.

We were just exposed
to ionizing radiation.
