00:00:20,300 --> 00:00:21,870
TRAVIS:
My name is Travis Taylor.
5
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:23,200
I'm an optical scientist,
6
00:00:23,333 --> 00:00:25,503
aerospace engineer
and astrophysicist
7
00:00:25,633 --> 00:00:29,233
who has worked on many
classified programs for NASA
8
00:00:29,367 --> 00:00:31,627
and the intelligence community
for over 30 years.
9
00:00:31,767 --> 00:00:35,467
One year ago, I was invited to
join a small team of scientists
10
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,900
who were investigating a place
called Skinwalker Ranch.
11
00:00:39,033 --> 00:00:42,233
Now, all I knew was that
the ranch had been associated
12
00:00:42,367 --> 00:00:45,827
with some very strange
UFO activity over the years.
13
00:00:45,967 --> 00:00:48,327
There'd also been reports
of animal mutilations
14
00:00:48,467 --> 00:00:50,827
and other bizarre phenomena.
15
00:00:50,967 --> 00:00:54,527
I was open-minded
but fairly skeptical.
16
00:00:54,667 --> 00:00:56,867
But nothing could've prepared me
17
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,870
for what my colleagues and I
were about to experience.
18
00:01:00,066 --> 00:01:02,566
THOMAS: Do you see
the glow, the flicker?
19
00:01:02,700 --> 00:01:04,770
Yeah, the whole top
of the mountain is glowing.
20
00:01:04,900 --> 00:01:06,970
We were just exposed
to ionizing radiation.
21
00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:10,330
This looks like there's
something a thousand feet long.
22
00:01:11,567 --> 00:01:13,597
-We got something. Hold on.
-THOMAS: Look, look, look!
23
00:01:13,734 --> 00:01:15,274
-ERIK: What is that?
-TRAVIS: It's gone.
24
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:16,370
SEGALA:
Look at the cows.
25
00:01:16,500 --> 00:01:18,300
That is the strangest thing.
26
00:01:18,433 --> 00:01:20,403
THOMAS:
There is something
going on out here.
27
00:01:20,533 --> 00:01:21,733
TRAVIS:
There's no sign of struggle.
28
00:01:21,867 --> 00:01:23,067
It's just dead.
29
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,770
The cow is right here.
30
00:01:24,900 --> 00:01:28,230
I can't help but also notice
there's something here.
31
00:01:31,066 --> 00:01:33,796
TRAVIS:
Now I've been invited back.
32
00:01:33,934 --> 00:01:36,574
And this time, I've got a better
idea of what we're dealing with.
33
00:01:36,700 --> 00:01:39,370
And this year,
we're going to start
34
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:42,300
finding the answers
to why this 512-acre
35
00:01:42,433 --> 00:01:44,473
stretch of land is
one of the strangest places
36
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,800
on the planet Earth.
37
00:01:46,934 --> 00:01:50,804
NARRATOR:
There is a ranch
in northern Utah.
38
00:01:50,934 --> 00:01:53,304
It is considered the epicenter
39
00:01:53,433 --> 00:01:58,073
of the strangest and most
disturbing phenomena on Earth:
40
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,530
animal mutilations,
41
00:02:00,667 --> 00:02:02,697
bizarre UFO sightings,
42
00:02:02,834 --> 00:02:08,034
and unusual energies that have
proven harmful to humans.
43
00:02:08,166 --> 00:02:11,166
For 20 years,
the federal government tried
44
00:02:11,300 --> 00:02:13,970
to find answers and failed.
45
00:02:14,100 --> 00:02:17,130
Now a new team
of dedicated scientists,
46
00:02:17,266 --> 00:02:22,096
researchers and experts
has taken over.
47
00:02:22,233 --> 00:02:26,103
They are determined to solve
the mystery and reveal...
48
00:02:28,500 --> 00:02:31,930
...The Secret of
Skinwalker Ranch.
49
00:02:43,567 --> 00:02:45,767
We're approaching the ranch.
50
00:02:45,900 --> 00:02:47,670
All right.
51
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,370
My name is Brandon Fugal,
52
00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:51,630
and I'm the owner
of Skinwalker Ranch.
53
00:02:51,767 --> 00:02:56,527
The ranch continues to surprise
and astound, I think, all of us
54
00:02:56,667 --> 00:02:58,797
that are involved
with this investigation.
55
00:02:58,934 --> 00:03:03,034
Dr. Lee, it's a privilege to
have you come out to the ranch
56
00:03:03,166 --> 00:03:07,896
and engage with the team,
uh, right here on-site.
57
00:03:08,033 --> 00:03:10,333
Yeah, this is
an incredible experience for me
58
00:03:10,467 --> 00:03:12,667
to be able
to visit the ranch and to
59
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,670
see some of things
60
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,500
that you've been involved with
over the last few years.
61
00:03:16,633 --> 00:03:18,503
BRANDON:
After the repeated injuries
62
00:03:18,633 --> 00:03:21,333
with Thomas Winterton,
63
00:03:21,467 --> 00:03:25,197
and then Dr. Taylor
having radiation injuries
64
00:03:25,333 --> 00:03:27,233
that remain unexplained,
65
00:03:27,367 --> 00:03:29,867
I thought it was important
that we bring in a professional
66
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,830
that is not only credentialed
but someone that I trust.
67
00:03:32,967 --> 00:03:36,667
A good share of
Dr. Lee's practice involves
68
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,670
clinical research
into radiation oncology,
69
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,430
and I've come to trust him
as not only a medical advisor
70
00:03:44,567 --> 00:03:47,197
but as someone
that doesn't screw around.
71
00:03:47,333 --> 00:03:50,503
CAMERON: So, Dr. Lee,
as we fly into the ranch here,
72
00:03:50,633 --> 00:03:52,173
just to the north
of these observation towers
73
00:03:52,300 --> 00:03:54,330
is Skinwalker Ridge.
74
00:03:55,667 --> 00:03:59,597
Many of the phenomena we've seen
have come from Skinwalker Ridge,
75
00:03:59,734 --> 00:04:02,104
so I try to be extra careful
as we fly over,
76
00:04:02,233 --> 00:04:04,903
uh, just to avoid
any electromechanical issues
77
00:04:05,033 --> 00:04:08,233
that could arise from...
from some of that phenomena.
78
00:04:08,367 --> 00:04:11,667
But I'll fly out here just...
just south of it to be safe.
79
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,500
BRANDON:
We know that we're dealing
80
00:04:13,633 --> 00:04:16,003
with potentially dangerous
phenomenon.
81
00:04:16,133 --> 00:04:18,303
There are certain risks
associated
82
00:04:18,433 --> 00:04:20,933
with activity on the ranch, but
83
00:04:21,066 --> 00:04:23,826
I think it's time to take the
investigation to another level.
84
00:04:23,967 --> 00:04:27,367
I'm anxious to get some answers.
85
00:04:28,567 --> 00:04:30,427
CAMERON:
Oh, here's the helipad.
86
00:04:30,567 --> 00:04:32,927
We're making
our final approach in here.
87
00:04:33,066 --> 00:04:35,426
BRANDON:
It's a thrill
to have the whole team
88
00:04:35,567 --> 00:04:39,497
come back together in order
to continue the investigation.
89
00:04:39,633 --> 00:04:44,103
This is a multidisciplinary
team of professionals.
90
00:04:44,233 --> 00:04:47,673
People who bring to the table
not only scientific
91
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,970
expertise but also
advanced technology experience.
92
00:04:52,100 --> 00:04:54,100
-Everybody's waiting to see you.
-Very good.
93
00:04:54,233 --> 00:04:56,433
-We're excited to have you back.
-It's good to be back.
94
00:04:56,567 --> 00:04:58,567
Remarkable things happened
this past year,
95
00:04:58,700 --> 00:05:02,070
and to build on that momentum,
to further understand
96
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,300
the phenomena
and what is really at play
97
00:05:05,433 --> 00:05:07,373
on this unique piece of property
98
00:05:07,500 --> 00:05:08,600
is really exciting.
99
00:05:10,367 --> 00:05:12,667
Well, it's, uh, good
to see you back
100
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,070
at Skinwalker Ranch, Dr. Taylor.
101
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,230
-Thank you.
-I'd like to introduce
all of you
102
00:05:16,367 --> 00:05:18,127
to Dr. Chris Lee.
103
00:05:18,266 --> 00:05:21,566
He's a nationally-recognized
radiation oncologist.
104
00:05:21,700 --> 00:05:25,370
Uh, having him as an outside
medical consultant is
105
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:29,530
a vital part of establishing
the health and safety protocols
106
00:05:29,667 --> 00:05:31,627
here at Skinwalker Ranch.
107
00:05:31,767 --> 00:05:33,497
I appreciate meeting all of you.
108
00:05:33,633 --> 00:05:37,333
So, I know I'm a visitor today,
and, uh, this is my first time
109
00:05:37,467 --> 00:05:40,127
being here, but, uh,
I believe that safety is
110
00:05:40,266 --> 00:05:44,666
of utmost importance, and I do
think that it's critical to know
111
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,370
exactly what to do,
when to do it,
112
00:05:46,500 --> 00:05:48,530
how to do it
and the proper methods, so...
113
00:05:48,667 --> 00:05:51,397
I've offered to Brandon
I can lend my expertise
114
00:05:51,533 --> 00:05:53,903
with regard to safety
or radiation exposures,
115
00:05:54,033 --> 00:05:56,633
or if there's questions
regarding, um,
116
00:05:56,767 --> 00:05:58,797
some of
the electromagnetic phenomenon
117
00:05:58,934 --> 00:06:00,304
that they've been experiencing.
118
00:06:00,433 --> 00:06:04,703
I also would like to have Dragon
119
00:06:04,834 --> 00:06:07,874
take on the added role
and responsibility
120
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,970
of being the safety officer
at the ranch,
121
00:06:11,100 --> 00:06:14,800
in order to not only ensure
that everyone is kept
122
00:06:14,934 --> 00:06:18,134
healthy, but, uh,
really kept safe.
123
00:06:18,266 --> 00:06:19,796
I'm-I'm happy to do it.
124
00:06:19,934 --> 00:06:23,304
And we have Kaleb
to be able to watch over
125
00:06:23,433 --> 00:06:26,073
the more day-to-day
security side of things.
126
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,430
So that, you know, we can focus
on, you know, the investigation
127
00:06:28,567 --> 00:06:30,367
-and what we're doing as a team.
-KALEB: Speaking of that,
128
00:06:30,500 --> 00:06:33,130
I do have some other issues
I got to go get taken care of,
129
00:06:33,266 --> 00:06:35,726
-so I'll leave you guys to it.
-We'll let you get to work.
130
00:06:35,867 --> 00:06:38,727
-BRYANT: Thanks, Kaleb.
-Thanks, Kaleb.
131
00:06:38,867 --> 00:06:41,267
So next, Travis,
132
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,630
as you come out and,
uh, rejoin the effort,
133
00:06:44,767 --> 00:06:48,097
are you prepared for another
stint here at Skinwalker Ranch?
134
00:06:48,233 --> 00:06:50,703
Well, uh, what we saw last time
135
00:06:50,834 --> 00:06:53,374
was some extremely
unusual things
136
00:06:53,500 --> 00:06:55,870
that you can't explain
with modern physics,
137
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,430
or at least we can't yet.
138
00:06:57,567 --> 00:07:00,297
And so, the opportunity
to come back out here
139
00:07:00,433 --> 00:07:03,173
and see if we can see
what it really is, is-is...
140
00:07:03,300 --> 00:07:05,530
It's exciting, and I appreciate
you inviting me back out.
141
00:07:05,667 --> 00:07:08,997
Well, it's been interesting
in that during the off-season,
142
00:07:09,133 --> 00:07:11,133
we've had no shortage
of incidents
143
00:07:11,266 --> 00:07:12,966
that have taken place.
144
00:07:13,100 --> 00:07:16,530
In fact, we've continued
to track and monitor events
145
00:07:16,667 --> 00:07:19,497
that have con-continued to occur
here on the property.
146
00:07:19,633 --> 00:07:21,373
Well, and hopefully
we can figure out something
147
00:07:21,500 --> 00:07:23,630
that will stimulate
these events to occur.
148
00:07:23,767 --> 00:07:27,767
If we can figure out
the switch that makes it happen,
149
00:07:27,900 --> 00:07:29,430
instead of it always being
sort of we-we got lucky
150
00:07:29,567 --> 00:07:32,667
and caught it this time,
then that would be huge.
151
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,500
BRANDON:
That's exciting.
152
00:07:34,633 --> 00:07:37,973
What would you propose
as far as experiments?
153
00:07:38,100 --> 00:07:40,530
Uh, I would actually like
154
00:07:40,667 --> 00:07:43,227
to look underneath
the surface of the ranch.
155
00:07:46,066 --> 00:07:47,596
TRAVIS:
So, last year,
156
00:07:47,734 --> 00:07:49,534
there was this fear
of digging on the ranch.
157
00:07:49,667 --> 00:07:51,427
We should see what happens
158
00:07:51,567 --> 00:07:53,127
when we do something
like digging a hole.
159
00:07:54,767 --> 00:07:56,297
BRYANT:
I know for a fact
160
00:07:56,433 --> 00:07:59,133
crap goes down when people
start disturbing the earth.
161
00:07:59,266 --> 00:08:03,566
I have to say unequivocally
say no digging.
162
00:08:03,700 --> 00:08:06,530
TRAVIS:
So, as a result,
we didn't do much research
163
00:08:06,667 --> 00:08:09,327
into looking at what's
underneath the property.
164
00:08:09,467 --> 00:08:11,527
There have been
stories and legends
165
00:08:11,667 --> 00:08:14,267
of what might be underneath
the ground here, like
166
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,370
ancient meteorites,
alien spacecraft
167
00:08:17,500 --> 00:08:19,330
and even underground bases.
168
00:08:19,467 --> 00:08:22,727
Perhaps this secret base
could be the source of
169
00:08:22,867 --> 00:08:25,997
all this weird transient energy
that we've been experiencing.
170
00:08:26,133 --> 00:08:27,603
I think if we're gonna
get to the bottom
171
00:08:27,734 --> 00:08:29,274
of what's going on here,
172
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,400
we're gonna have to start
looking underneath the ground,
173
00:08:32,533 --> 00:08:35,773
and maybe that means we're gonna
have to start digging.
174
00:08:35,900 --> 00:08:38,170
BRYANT:
Last time, we had Travis out
175
00:08:38,300 --> 00:08:40,100
and stuff like that,
it was your mandate
176
00:08:40,233 --> 00:08:42,733
that there was not
to be any invasive digging.
177
00:08:42,867 --> 00:08:44,397
And so, you know,
178
00:08:44,533 --> 00:08:47,733
I took that seriously,
and in order to explore
179
00:08:47,867 --> 00:08:50,767
what Travis is talking about
and, you know,
180
00:08:50,900 --> 00:08:53,170
the possibility of
something larger, you know,
181
00:08:53,300 --> 00:08:55,200
I will follow your lead.
182
00:08:55,333 --> 00:08:57,403
Yeah.
183
00:08:57,533 --> 00:09:01,273
Um, well, without digging,
184
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,400
we could try looking
at photogrammetry,
185
00:09:03,533 --> 00:09:05,833
lidar, uh, scanning.
186
00:09:05,967 --> 00:09:09,727
THOMAS:
Well, you know, as you guys
have been talking about this,
187
00:09:09,867 --> 00:09:12,127
just to the west
of Homestead Two
188
00:09:12,266 --> 00:09:17,226
is a fairly significant
hole of size,
189
00:09:17,367 --> 00:09:19,567
big enough you could
probably put a car in.
190
00:09:19,700 --> 00:09:21,130
But it's been
191
00:09:21,266 --> 00:09:23,396
filled up with trees
and branches,
192
00:09:23,533 --> 00:09:24,933
and you can't see down into it.
193
00:09:25,066 --> 00:09:28,996
You can't tell how deep it is
or-or how far down it goes.
194
00:09:29,133 --> 00:09:30,673
And so, you know,
one of the days
195
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,930
I was irrigating, I thought,
you know, just out of curiosity,
196
00:09:33,066 --> 00:09:34,496
I'm gonna divert
some of the water
197
00:09:34,633 --> 00:09:37,273
down into that hole and see
how long it takes to fill it up.
198
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,970
It took about
three and a half hours
199
00:09:40,100 --> 00:09:41,400
to fill this thing up
to the top.
200
00:09:41,533 --> 00:09:43,073
Now, the interesting thing was,
201
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,630
is that after taking
three hours to fill it up,
202
00:09:45,767 --> 00:09:48,467
the water disappeared
out of sight within 15 minutes.
203
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,100
TRAVIS:
Oh, wow.
204
00:09:50,233 --> 00:09:52,433
-(others murmuring)
-That's unbelievable.
205
00:09:52,567 --> 00:09:54,667
THOMAS:
I thought that water would be
sitting there for weeks.
206
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,770
And so, you know, I think
it would be interesting to
207
00:09:58,900 --> 00:10:02,170
take and fill that back up again
and see if maybe we can trace
208
00:10:02,300 --> 00:10:03,900
where that water is going.
209
00:10:04,033 --> 00:10:06,003
TRAVIS:
That's a good idea.
210
00:10:06,133 --> 00:10:07,573
You know,
the ground-penetrating radar
211
00:10:07,700 --> 00:10:09,900
did show some strange anomalies
at depth there.
212
00:10:10,033 --> 00:10:13,103
Last year, we did
ground-penetrating radar,
213
00:10:13,233 --> 00:10:14,503
and we found
some weird anomalies
214
00:10:14,633 --> 00:10:16,333
right in the middle of the road
215
00:10:16,467 --> 00:10:18,897
right in front of Homestead Two
and right in front of that pit.
216
00:10:19,033 --> 00:10:23,633
We found some dome features
anywhere from eight to 25 feet.
217
00:10:23,767 --> 00:10:26,127
Almost looked as though
there was the top
218
00:10:26,266 --> 00:10:28,226
of a tunnel
and the base of a tunnel...
219
00:10:28,367 --> 00:10:29,497
Oh, a tunnel.
220
00:10:31,367 --> 00:10:32,827
Where there's smoke,
there's fire.
221
00:10:32,967 --> 00:10:34,927
Yeah, I'm really
liking this idea.
222
00:10:35,066 --> 00:10:37,126
I think we can get a lot
of information out of it
223
00:10:37,266 --> 00:10:39,326
if we do this
in the right order.
224
00:10:39,467 --> 00:10:43,067
And putting some water in there,
we can follow that with some dye
225
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,800
and perhaps trace the flow
of that water
226
00:10:45,934 --> 00:10:47,974
and see if it emerges
somewhere else on the property,
227
00:10:48,100 --> 00:10:50,000
perhaps even in the creek
out there.
228
00:10:50,133 --> 00:10:52,603
-Oh, nice.
-BRANDON: That's exciting.
229
00:10:52,734 --> 00:10:55,404
I'd like to get to the bottom
of whether there really is
230
00:10:55,533 --> 00:10:57,233
a cave system
beneath this ranch.
231
00:10:57,367 --> 00:10:59,167
We can address this
right now, then.
232
00:10:59,300 --> 00:11:01,400
I mean, I think
these are great ideas.
233
00:11:01,533 --> 00:11:03,303
And, you know,
if it comes to the point
234
00:11:03,433 --> 00:11:06,833
where you are curious about,
you know, seeing what's deeper,
235
00:11:06,967 --> 00:11:08,697
if we can't get
satisfactory answers
236
00:11:08,834 --> 00:11:10,704
by the noninvasive stuff,
237
00:11:10,834 --> 00:11:13,504
then, you know, we'll have to
open up that area of discussion
238
00:11:13,633 --> 00:11:17,233
when it comes to d-digging
and disturbing the earth again.
239
00:11:17,367 --> 00:11:18,467
I'll look forward
to your guidance.
240
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,000
Well, thank you all
for coming together.
241
00:11:21,133 --> 00:11:23,833
Uh, Dr. Lee and I
have to, uh, depart.
242
00:11:23,967 --> 00:11:25,897
-JIM: You bet. Thank you.
-Thank you.
-KANDUS: Thanks, Brandon.
243
00:11:26,033 --> 00:11:27,403
TRAVIS:
I'm real excited.
244
00:11:27,533 --> 00:11:29,873
There have been
so many stories about
245
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,700
there being something
underground here
246
00:11:31,834 --> 00:11:33,104
at Skinwalker Ranch.
247
00:11:34,367 --> 00:11:37,627
This hole may be the answer.
248
00:11:37,767 --> 00:11:40,327
Hopefully, if something happens,
we'll get some data for it.
249
00:11:41,433 --> 00:11:42,533
Well, that's it.
250
00:11:42,667 --> 00:11:44,797
I guess we better get to work.
251
00:11:44,934 --> 00:11:47,174
This-this is the hole
you were talking about?
252
00:11:47,300 --> 00:11:48,900
-THOMAS: Yeah.
-TRAVIS: We divert water
253
00:11:49,033 --> 00:11:51,503
into this hole and fill it up
with this green dye
254
00:11:51,633 --> 00:11:53,803
-that we can track.
-Look at that.
255
00:11:53,934 --> 00:11:55,434
It's draining quickly.
You guys need to get out there
256
00:11:55,567 --> 00:11:56,697
and start lookoking
for this stuff.
257
00:11:56,834 --> 00:11:58,334
Oh, look. You can see
the water down here.
258
00:12:08,133 --> 00:12:09,803
This-this is the hole
you were talking about?
259
00:12:09,934 --> 00:12:10,834
Yeah.
260
00:12:10,967 --> 00:12:13,297
How deep do you think it is?
261
00:12:13,433 --> 00:12:15,303
Well, I'm not sure.
262
00:12:15,433 --> 00:12:17,803
TRAVIS:
Don't know how-how much
that stuff's piled up on there.
263
00:12:17,934 --> 00:12:20,504
THOMAS:
There's this hole
over at Homestead Two.
264
00:12:20,633 --> 00:12:23,503
It's filled with brush
and trees and debris,
265
00:12:23,633 --> 00:12:24,773
and I've observed
266
00:12:24,900 --> 00:12:27,270
water disappearing in
very rapidly.
267
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,330
And the water's
got to be going somewhere,
268
00:12:29,467 --> 00:12:30,767
especially when I look around
269
00:12:30,900 --> 00:12:32,670
and all I see is
clay everywhere.
270
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,300
Clay just doesn't allow
water to seep in.
271
00:12:35,433 --> 00:12:38,073
I can't help but wonder
if it's not an opening
272
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,300
or some kind of tunnel
273
00:12:40,433 --> 00:12:42,473
that this water
is escaping into.
274
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,730
You know, I've tried
to poke down in there.
275
00:12:44,867 --> 00:12:46,397
It-it feels like
it could go down further,
276
00:12:46,533 --> 00:12:47,933
but I just don't know.
277
00:12:48,066 --> 00:12:49,826
I know it took a long time
to fill up.
278
00:12:49,967 --> 00:12:52,067
-How 'bout that.
-But then only took about
279
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:53,800
-20 minutes to drain, right?
-Yeah.
280
00:12:53,934 --> 00:12:55,504
-About 15 minutes.
-Now, that tells you
there's something.
281
00:12:55,633 --> 00:12:58,833
-There's a hole or something
under it, right?
-Yeah.
282
00:12:58,967 --> 00:13:01,397
If all that water
that Thomas dumped in this pit
283
00:13:01,533 --> 00:13:04,073
is not reappearing
somewhere else on the ranch,
284
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,330
then there has to be a massive
void of some kind below it.
285
00:13:07,467 --> 00:13:09,527
Nothing else
would really explain it.
286
00:13:09,667 --> 00:13:12,867
The question is whether or not
it's a natural void,
287
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,230
and that's what we're going
to find out.
288
00:13:15,367 --> 00:13:17,327
-So...
-What-- So what I need
to do to help?
289
00:13:17,467 --> 00:13:20,527
Well, we're just getting
this ditch opened up right here.
290
00:13:20,667 --> 00:13:22,397
BRYANT:
Just diverting the stream.
291
00:13:22,533 --> 00:13:23,833
THOMAS:
So, a couple feet away
292
00:13:23,967 --> 00:13:25,027
from this pit is
293
00:13:25,166 --> 00:13:26,566
a little irrigation ditch
294
00:13:26,700 --> 00:13:28,900
that takes the water out
to the field.
295
00:13:29,033 --> 00:13:31,373
So we're gonna dig a channel
from this ditch
296
00:13:31,500 --> 00:13:33,630
and divert the water
from going to the field
297
00:13:33,767 --> 00:13:36,727
and instead running
into this sinkhole.
298
00:13:38,100 --> 00:13:41,070
-Gah! Come on, Dragon!
-Sorry, man. Sorry.
299
00:13:42,133 --> 00:13:43,373
TRAVIS:
That's easy...
300
00:13:43,500 --> 00:13:45,330
ten gallons a minute.
301
00:13:45,467 --> 00:13:49,127
Well, that's about triple the
rate that I had the first time.
302
00:13:49,266 --> 00:13:50,526
Easy ten gallons a minute.
303
00:13:50,667 --> 00:13:52,627
Man, I wish I had a five-gallon
bucket and a clock.
304
00:13:52,767 --> 00:13:53,867
THOMAS:
I actually think
305
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,130
I may have a five-gallon bucket
over there.
306
00:13:56,266 --> 00:13:58,196
Let me go see if I can find one.
307
00:13:58,333 --> 00:13:59,973
TRAVIS:
I want to measure
just how much water
308
00:14:00,166 --> 00:14:01,596
we're dumping in this pit.
309
00:14:01,734 --> 00:14:04,434
So, with a five-gallon bucket
and a stopwatch...
310
00:14:04,567 --> 00:14:05,967
Oh, hey. Here we go.
311
00:14:06,100 --> 00:14:08,800
...I'll calculate how long
it takes to fill it up.
312
00:14:08,934 --> 00:14:10,474
All right,
I'm ready when you are.
313
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,570
Three, two, one, go.
314
00:14:14,533 --> 00:14:17,533
So, that's about four gallons
in two seconds.
315
00:14:17,667 --> 00:14:19,127
120 gallons a minute.
316
00:14:19,266 --> 00:14:21,396
THOMAS:
Even as fast as that's going in,
317
00:14:21,533 --> 00:14:24,033
I'm-I'm still shocked
it's not coming up faster.
318
00:14:24,166 --> 00:14:26,096
TRAVIS:
Right.
319
00:14:26,233 --> 00:14:27,603
And at this rate,
it's gonna be filled up
320
00:14:27,734 --> 00:14:28,974
before I can get down there
and back.
321
00:14:29,100 --> 00:14:31,300
So I'm gonna go get Erik
and the rest of the people
322
00:14:31,433 --> 00:14:33,233
and the-- and that dye.
323
00:14:33,367 --> 00:14:34,527
-'Kay.
-All right? I'll be right back.
324
00:14:34,667 --> 00:14:36,527
-'Kay.
-Sounds good.
325
00:14:36,667 --> 00:14:38,597
Man, y'all don't
go swimming in that.
326
00:14:38,734 --> 00:14:40,534
Ain't no telling
what's at the bottom of it.
327
00:14:40,667 --> 00:14:42,027
-(chuckles)
-We're not from Alabama.
328
00:14:42,166 --> 00:14:43,396
Ha!
329
00:14:45,233 --> 00:14:47,603
We're bringing the whole team
out to the sinkhole,
330
00:14:47,734 --> 00:14:49,204
so we'll have more eyes
to look around
331
00:14:49,333 --> 00:14:50,403
in case something happens.
332
00:14:50,533 --> 00:14:52,103
Our plan is to use
333
00:14:52,233 --> 00:14:55,273
a green dye as a tracker dye.
334
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:56,800
Perfectly safe.
335
00:14:56,934 --> 00:14:58,434
It's environmentally friendly.
336
00:14:58,567 --> 00:14:59,767
So it's not gonna hurt anything.
337
00:14:59,900 --> 00:15:01,470
And you pour it in the water
338
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,500
and you watch for it
to come out somewhere,
339
00:15:03,633 --> 00:15:05,033
and you'll know
that that's the pathway
340
00:15:05,166 --> 00:15:07,296
that the water is taking.
341
00:15:07,433 --> 00:15:09,703
Look what the cat
dragged in, guys.
342
00:15:09,834 --> 00:15:11,474
BRYANT:
What's up, Casey?
343
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:12,870
Welcome back, man.
344
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,270
CASEY:
I'm Casey Smith.
345
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,470
I work for Qual-Tek Associates.
346
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:17,830
I have a degree in geology,
347
00:15:17,967 --> 00:15:20,667
particularly hydrology,
so it's groundwater.
348
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:21,670
And so they wanted
to bring me in
349
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:22,870
to help with the tracer test.
350
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,030
So, you guys ready
to put this in?
351
00:15:24,166 --> 00:15:25,266
Yeah, I'd say
we need to pour it in.
352
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:26,370
-Where do you want it?
-Dump it in.
353
00:15:26,500 --> 00:15:28,100
-All right.
-TRAVIS: Watch this stuff.
354
00:15:28,233 --> 00:15:30,503
-It's-it's cool when-when
it hits-- Look at that.
-KANDUS: Oh, wow.
355
00:15:30,633 --> 00:15:32,503
-TRAVIS: Is that not awesome?
-KANDUS: Not what I expected.
356
00:15:32,633 --> 00:15:34,803
-CASEY: It's like
the Ninja Turtles.
-TRAVIS: Oh, yeah!
357
00:15:34,934 --> 00:15:36,374
-Secret of the...
Secret of the Ooze here.
-Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
358
00:15:36,500 --> 00:15:37,800
-Yeah.
-KALEB: Yeah.
359
00:15:37,934 --> 00:15:39,874
As this mixes, it may take a--
360
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,530
you know, a little while
for it to go.
361
00:15:41,667 --> 00:15:44,467
Here's what I think
what we should do is
362
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,100
just stop it complete, as close
to completely as we can.
363
00:15:48,166 --> 00:15:49,496
The next thing we need to do
364
00:15:49,633 --> 00:15:51,703
is dam up our flow of water
into the pit
365
00:15:51,834 --> 00:15:54,334
so the dye can drain out.
366
00:15:54,467 --> 00:15:56,327
Then we can all go check to see
367
00:15:56,467 --> 00:15:58,167
if it emerges anywhere else
on the ranch.
368
00:15:58,300 --> 00:16:00,770
If not, then there's
only one place to look:
369
00:16:00,900 --> 00:16:03,700
deep below this pit.
370
00:16:03,834 --> 00:16:05,834
-They got it blocked off.
It's gonna start draining.
-Ready.
371
00:16:05,967 --> 00:16:07,497
But we need to divide
and conquer here.
372
00:16:07,633 --> 00:16:10,273
We need to all pick
some-some spaces.
373
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,030
I think, like,
me and you and, uh, Thomas,
374
00:16:12,166 --> 00:16:13,926
we can handle whatever
we got to do here, right?
375
00:16:14,066 --> 00:16:15,926
-Erik, what do you want to do?
-Well, I think we should head
376
00:16:16,066 --> 00:16:19,166
to the south,
down to the, uh, the big creek.
377
00:16:19,300 --> 00:16:21,030
I'll take Tom and Kandus,
and we'll go hit
378
00:16:21,166 --> 00:16:23,266
-this middle section right here.
-Okay.
379
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:24,870
-Sure.
-TRAVIS: Hey, guys.
380
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,230
It's already dropped a foot
381
00:16:26,367 --> 00:16:29,197
since we-we just stopped.
382
00:16:29,333 --> 00:16:31,403
I mean, I set these bottles
right at the edge of the water.
383
00:16:31,533 --> 00:16:34,033
So it's draining quickly.
You guys need to get out there
384
00:16:34,166 --> 00:16:35,826
and start looking
for this stuff, all right?
385
00:16:35,967 --> 00:16:38,297
Sounds good.
We'll get out of here.
386
00:16:44,700 --> 00:16:46,770
CICO:
Nice.
387
00:16:46,900 --> 00:16:49,270
BRYANT:
I was really fortunate
that my friend Cico was able
388
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:50,730
to join Erik and I.
389
00:16:50,867 --> 00:16:52,567
He's a drone operator,
390
00:16:52,700 --> 00:16:54,400
so that we could cover
way more ground
391
00:16:54,533 --> 00:16:56,073
and be able to, you know,
392
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,900
hopefully see if there was
any dye coming out.
393
00:16:59,033 --> 00:17:00,973
We went to one part
394
00:17:01,100 --> 00:17:04,470
where we thought
it may come out into the river.
395
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,800
If we find the dye
coming out in the river
396
00:17:06,934 --> 00:17:08,934
or in the field somewhere,
you know what,
397
00:17:09,066 --> 00:17:10,996
that's an answer, so we have
an answer to questions.
398
00:17:12,967 --> 00:17:14,097
CICO:
This the spot?
399
00:17:14,233 --> 00:17:16,003
Yeah, this is it.
400
00:17:16,133 --> 00:17:18,003
Now, if we don't find it,
then, you know,
401
00:17:18,133 --> 00:17:20,003
it's gonna warrant
further investigation.
402
00:17:20,133 --> 00:17:24,233
So, I think if we land
right in about this area,
403
00:17:24,367 --> 00:17:27,067
you can probably get
drone footage...
404
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:28,630
-Oh, cool.
-...up and around.
405
00:17:28,767 --> 00:17:30,827
Plus, we can see
with our physical eyes
406
00:17:30,967 --> 00:17:32,267
-the water coming down here.
-All right.
407
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,000
-Should we throw it up?
-Yeah, put it up.
408
00:17:34,133 --> 00:17:35,603
I'm anxious
to see you fly this thing.
409
00:17:35,734 --> 00:17:36,834
See what happens.
410
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,800
You just tell me
which way you want me to go.
411
00:17:47,934 --> 00:17:49,474
Yeah, the homesteads are off
in that direction.
412
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,230
-Okay.
-So...
413
00:17:51,367 --> 00:17:53,097
CICO:
We'll just follow
the river down that way.
414
00:17:53,233 --> 00:17:55,473
BRYANT:
I mean, you can follow
the river back up.
415
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,030
CICO:
If you see any discolorations,
just shout it out.
416
00:18:02,467 --> 00:18:04,897
So, let's just follow
this water channel.
417
00:18:05,033 --> 00:18:06,173
There's a good trail
through here,
418
00:18:06,300 --> 00:18:07,570
and we'll just go
all the way down
419
00:18:07,700 --> 00:18:09,030
and see if we can find that dye.
420
00:18:09,166 --> 00:18:10,126
-TOM: Okay.
-KANDUS: All right.
421
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:12,570
KALEB: I personally thought
that the water,
422
00:18:12,700 --> 00:18:14,800
if it might come up anywhere,
would be
423
00:18:14,934 --> 00:18:17,074
one of the areas that
I've been able to go through
424
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,330
doing a lot of my patrols.
425
00:18:19,467 --> 00:18:21,867
There's areas of the ground
that are very wet.
426
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,400
I've gone through there
where there's been
427
00:18:23,533 --> 00:18:25,333
about a foot of water
in some areas.
428
00:18:25,467 --> 00:18:30,067
And it's just random
on where that water's coming up.
429
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,470
Travis, you got me? It's Kaleb.
430
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,370
TRAVIS (over walkie-talkie):
Yeah, man. What's going on?
431
00:18:35,500 --> 00:18:37,400
We're just down
in the southwest corner.
432
00:18:37,533 --> 00:18:38,973
Gets pretty marshy through here,
433
00:18:39,100 --> 00:18:41,670
so maybe it's coming up
here somewhere.
434
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,500
TRAVIS: Well, most of the
water's drained out of the hole,
435
00:18:44,633 --> 00:18:46,003
so it went somewhere.
436
00:18:46,133 --> 00:18:47,033
Just keep looking.
437
00:18:47,166 --> 00:18:48,266
Will do. Out.
438
00:18:49,333 --> 00:18:51,403
That's a lot of water
that went away.
439
00:18:51,533 --> 00:18:53,173
Yeah.
440
00:18:53,300 --> 00:18:55,200
We put 45,000 gallons of water
441
00:18:55,333 --> 00:18:57,733
into this hole.
442
00:18:57,867 --> 00:19:01,767
And at least 80% of it
was gone within an hour.
443
00:19:01,900 --> 00:19:03,770
You know, there's no telling
where this is gonna run out.
444
00:19:03,900 --> 00:19:05,870
To me, that looks downhill.
445
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,730
You know, appearance,
yes, we think that's downhill.
446
00:19:09,867 --> 00:19:11,627
But what we don't see is,
you know,
447
00:19:11,767 --> 00:19:12,797
what's underneath us, right?
448
00:19:12,934 --> 00:19:14,734
We could have a bed layer
that's, you know,
449
00:19:14,867 --> 00:19:17,067
sloping back towards the mesa.
450
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,130
So, that actually
could be downhill
451
00:19:19,266 --> 00:19:20,796
-for this water?
-Yeah.
452
00:19:20,934 --> 00:19:22,804
THOMAS:
You know, where we drilled
is just right--
453
00:19:22,934 --> 00:19:24,304
like, what, 20 feet right there?
454
00:19:24,433 --> 00:19:26,203
-Yeah.
-TRAVIS: Last summer...
455
00:19:26,333 --> 00:19:28,603
Let's take a look
at the data here.
456
00:19:28,734 --> 00:19:30,874
...after we used
the ground-penetrating radar
457
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,370
in front of Homestead Two
458
00:19:32,500 --> 00:19:35,370
and detected those strange
tunnel-like anomalies,
459
00:19:35,500 --> 00:19:37,300
we all agreed to drill a hole
460
00:19:37,433 --> 00:19:39,303
to see what the heck
those anomalies were.
461
00:19:39,433 --> 00:19:41,933
(mechanical rattling)
462
00:19:42,066 --> 00:19:43,126
That whole thing's shaking.
463
00:19:44,166 --> 00:19:45,696
What is our depth?
464
00:19:45,834 --> 00:19:47,434
We're right now at about 17.
465
00:19:47,567 --> 00:19:48,597
I think that's right
466
00:19:48,734 --> 00:19:50,704
in the range
where we were getting that ping.
467
00:19:50,834 --> 00:19:52,374
Yeah, I think you're right.
468
00:19:53,333 --> 00:19:55,303
Are you getting something?
469
00:19:55,433 --> 00:19:56,403
No.
470
00:19:56,533 --> 00:19:58,433
-Just normal background?
-Yeah.
471
00:19:58,567 --> 00:20:00,097
We didn't find anything
by drilling.
472
00:20:00,233 --> 00:20:01,873
But now it's strange
473
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,770
that all this water's
draining down somewhere
474
00:20:04,900 --> 00:20:07,230
right next to where we found
those anomalies.
475
00:20:07,367 --> 00:20:09,967
I say the first place
to look is in that hole.
476
00:20:10,100 --> 00:20:11,530
We ought to run something
down in there
477
00:20:11,667 --> 00:20:13,567
and see if any of this
green stuff is getting into it.
478
00:20:13,700 --> 00:20:14,730
THOMAS:
I think we should.
479
00:20:14,867 --> 00:20:16,027
All right. Let's try that.
480
00:20:17,667 --> 00:20:19,027
Here's the hole.
481
00:20:20,066 --> 00:20:22,096
I think we can probably see
down in there.
482
00:20:22,233 --> 00:20:24,203
Oh, look. You can see
the water down here.
483
00:20:24,333 --> 00:20:26,203
-THOMAS: See any green?
-I can't tell.
484
00:20:26,333 --> 00:20:28,603
Let's see how deep it is.
See if we can get one of those--
485
00:20:28,734 --> 00:20:30,374
get the pipes down in there.
486
00:20:30,500 --> 00:20:32,030
See if you get
some green water on it.
487
00:20:32,166 --> 00:20:33,266
THOMAS:
I think we should.
488
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,170
Yeah. (grunts)
489
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,400
Oh. I'm in mud.
490
00:20:42,533 --> 00:20:44,703
Here, hold on.
I'll put a top on it.
491
00:20:44,834 --> 00:20:45,804
(crackling)
492
00:20:45,934 --> 00:20:47,204
Pull it up quick.
493
00:20:49,166 --> 00:20:52,426
TRAVIS: Well, I don't see
any green water.
494
00:20:52,567 --> 00:20:54,467
THOMAS:
No, looks pretty clear.
495
00:20:55,533 --> 00:20:57,733
TRAVIS:
You'd think
we'd find the dyed water
496
00:20:57,867 --> 00:21:00,367
in the hole closest
to where we had diverted it,
497
00:21:00,500 --> 00:21:01,530
but it's not there.
498
00:21:01,667 --> 00:21:02,967
Where in the heck
did all that water
499
00:21:03,100 --> 00:21:04,630
that we pumped into the hole go?
500
00:21:04,767 --> 00:21:06,897
-THOMAS: I don't think
there's any green in there.
-Yeah.
501
00:21:09,166 --> 00:21:11,326
TRAVIS: This is where
the radiation event happened.
502
00:21:11,467 --> 00:21:14,697
We saw 45,000 gallons
of water disappear.
503
00:21:14,834 --> 00:21:16,434
It must be going
somewhere rapidly.
504
00:21:16,567 --> 00:21:18,097
THOMAS:
I, for one,
I want to dig it out.
505
00:21:18,233 --> 00:21:20,333
BRYANT:
The lore associated
with digging,
506
00:21:20,467 --> 00:21:22,127
there's no way
to protect against that.
507
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,370
-Broke right off.
-Well,
508
00:21:29,500 --> 00:21:32,500
-I don't think there's
any green in there.
-Yeah.
509
00:21:32,633 --> 00:21:35,773
We pumped about 45,000 gallons
of dyed water
510
00:21:35,900 --> 00:21:37,030
down into this hole,
511
00:21:37,166 --> 00:21:39,326
and now it's just gone.
512
00:21:39,467 --> 00:21:41,497
Let's go look in the cistern
to see if there might be
513
00:21:41,633 --> 00:21:44,233
-the green dye leached into it.
-Okay.
514
00:21:44,367 --> 00:21:46,167
TRAVIS:
So, the next logical place
515
00:21:46,300 --> 00:21:48,200
that Thomas and Casey and I
are going to check
516
00:21:48,333 --> 00:21:51,333
is the old cistern
behind Homestead Two.
517
00:21:51,467 --> 00:21:53,327
THOMAS:
You got your flashlight, right?
518
00:21:53,467 --> 00:21:54,697
TRAVIS:
Yeah, I got it.
519
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,130
KALEB:
Just come right through here.
520
00:22:00,867 --> 00:22:02,897
The thicket
that I wanted to go through,
521
00:22:03,033 --> 00:22:04,703
it's very dense.
522
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:07,670
You almost need to have
some kind
523
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,430
of tool to get through there,
like a machete or an ax
524
00:22:10,567 --> 00:22:12,327
to get through
some of those branches.
525
00:22:12,467 --> 00:22:14,227
Here's some water,
down right here.
526
00:22:15,300 --> 00:22:16,330
(Kandus exhales)
527
00:22:16,467 --> 00:22:18,567
-Do you see any dye?
-No, no dye.
528
00:22:18,700 --> 00:22:20,430
It's curious.
529
00:22:20,567 --> 00:22:23,267
Uh, we still don't know
where this water's going.
530
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,730
Let's head back out.
531
00:22:27,633 --> 00:22:29,503
CICO:
We're about 450 feet out
532
00:22:29,633 --> 00:22:31,303
from where we started.
You can see the bottom.
533
00:22:31,433 --> 00:22:33,173
-Right. That's cool.
-The map. The... What...
534
00:22:33,300 --> 00:22:34,630
The terrain we're tracing.
535
00:22:34,767 --> 00:22:36,627
BRYANT:
We've spent a lot of time
536
00:22:36,767 --> 00:22:39,327
looking for this fluorescent
green dye to show up,
537
00:22:39,467 --> 00:22:42,067
and as of yet, we haven't found
any traces of it.
538
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,670
CICO:
If somebody'd
keep an eye on the water.
539
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,930
Looks like normal water so far.
540
00:22:47,066 --> 00:22:49,596
BRYANT:
I'd be shocked if we were
able to see something
541
00:22:49,734 --> 00:22:52,074
at this point,
as much as it would be diluted.
542
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:53,730
-Sure.
-Sure.
543
00:22:59,066 --> 00:23:00,896
TRAVIS:
This place just has
544
00:23:01,033 --> 00:23:02,333
a specific smell to me.
545
00:23:02,467 --> 00:23:04,797
I don't know if it does
to y'all or not, but I smell it.
546
00:23:04,934 --> 00:23:06,674
Homestead Two's not only
547
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,800
one of the creepiest-looking
places on the ranch
548
00:23:09,934 --> 00:23:12,874
but it's also where
a lot of strange phenomena
549
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:14,200
and events have occurred.
550
00:23:14,333 --> 00:23:16,903
People have heard creepy voices.
551
00:23:17,033 --> 00:23:19,203
They've had lost time events.
552
00:23:19,333 --> 00:23:23,473
And Robert Bigelow's team
actually claimed that they saw
553
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,570
a portal open up
by Homestead Two
554
00:23:25,700 --> 00:23:27,230
and a creature crawl out of it.
555
00:23:27,367 --> 00:23:30,027
And I've had my own
weird experiences here, too.
556
00:23:30,166 --> 00:23:33,066
Right around the corner,
this is where
557
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:34,400
the radiation event happened.
558
00:23:34,533 --> 00:23:35,733
Last summer,
559
00:23:35,867 --> 00:23:38,467
I had symptoms
of radiation sickness.
560
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:42,230
It's filled with something.
561
00:23:42,367 --> 00:23:44,167
I feel, like, a... I don't know.
562
00:23:44,300 --> 00:23:46,570
I got a little bit of a headache
or something happening.
563
00:23:46,700 --> 00:23:48,570
-(beeping)
-My dosimeter went off.
564
00:23:48,700 --> 00:23:50,570
Holy cr... Mine's beeping.
565
00:23:50,700 --> 00:23:53,970
I had radiation sickness,
flu-like symptoms for a week,
566
00:23:54,100 --> 00:23:57,930
and I had burns
and rashes appear.
567
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:00,270
I'll move it this time.
568
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:01,970
-How about that?
-All right, all right.
569
00:24:07,333 --> 00:24:08,903
The water's really clear.
570
00:24:09,033 --> 00:24:11,573
-I can see... Wow, look at that.
-CASEY: It's super clear.
571
00:24:11,700 --> 00:24:13,300
THOMAS:
So, I guess
you don't see any green.
572
00:24:13,433 --> 00:24:14,973
TRAVIS:
No, I don't.
573
00:24:16,033 --> 00:24:17,773
CASEY:
So, the dose readings in here
574
00:24:17,900 --> 00:24:19,630
have actually dropped,
so we're getting some shielding
575
00:24:19,767 --> 00:24:20,967
from the concrete, probably.
576
00:24:21,100 --> 00:24:22,400
Uh, but it's actually lower
577
00:24:22,533 --> 00:24:24,273
-in here.
-TRAVIS: Okay. All right.
578
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,130
BRYANT (over walkie-talkie):
Hey, Travis. You copy?
579
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,430
Yeah, Dragon. What's going on?
580
00:24:30,567 --> 00:24:32,397
Unfortunately, really nothing.
581
00:24:32,533 --> 00:24:34,373
We've run the drone.
582
00:24:34,500 --> 00:24:37,130
We really don't see
anything yet.
583
00:24:37,266 --> 00:24:39,426
TRAVIS:
Well, that's interesting. Uh,
584
00:24:39,567 --> 00:24:42,797
we haven't found anything yet
here around, uh, Homestead Two.
585
00:24:42,934 --> 00:24:45,534
I wonder if Kaleb has seen
anything where they are.
586
00:24:45,667 --> 00:24:48,597
Okay, well, I think we're gonna
head back to the command center.
587
00:24:48,734 --> 00:24:50,804
So, when you guys are ready,
you can meet us back there,
588
00:24:50,934 --> 00:24:52,634
and we'll powwow
and formulate a plan.
589
00:24:52,767 --> 00:24:54,067
TRAVIS:
All right, that sounds good.
590
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:55,670
We'll see you there
in a little bit.
591
00:24:57,166 --> 00:25:00,626
Well, there you go. So...
592
00:25:00,767 --> 00:25:02,427
From the very first day
593
00:25:02,567 --> 00:25:04,367
I stepped on this ranch,
we've had
594
00:25:04,500 --> 00:25:07,000
crazy RF readings.
Uh, we saw UFOs.
595
00:25:07,133 --> 00:25:10,273
I got dosed by radiation.
We had a cow die.
596
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,470
And then we put 45,000 gallons
of water into this hole.
597
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,200
So, where did it go?
598
00:25:16,333 --> 00:25:20,333
Is there an underground opening
that the water fell into?
599
00:25:20,467 --> 00:25:24,797
It's another just weird thing
about Skinwalker Ranch.
600
00:25:24,934 --> 00:25:27,674
I think, g-gather
our stuff and head back.
601
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,070
-Sounds good.
-All right.
-Okay.
602
00:25:34,266 --> 00:25:36,496
BRANDON: Greetings, gentlemen.
How are you?
603
00:25:36,633 --> 00:25:39,173
-Hey, Brandon.
-Hey, Brandon, we're fine.
604
00:25:39,300 --> 00:25:41,030
So how did the investigation
go today,
605
00:25:41,166 --> 00:25:43,926
and, uh, what's, uh,
what's the latest?
606
00:25:44,066 --> 00:25:46,626
Really, we didn't see anything,
to be honest,
607
00:25:46,767 --> 00:25:48,797
but with that,
it opens the question as to
608
00:25:48,934 --> 00:25:50,474
where is all of
that water going,
609
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,830
and how are we gonna
figure that out?
610
00:25:52,967 --> 00:25:54,697
That's, uh, significant.
611
00:25:54,834 --> 00:25:58,434
Brandon, I'd like your
permission to be able to
612
00:25:58,567 --> 00:26:01,897
bring some equipment on
and, uh, dig that brush out,
613
00:26:02,033 --> 00:26:05,403
and maybe even excavate out some
around that hole
614
00:26:05,533 --> 00:26:08,203
and towards the road
where we, uh, drilled at.
615
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,500
ERIK:
We find ourselves
in a situation again
616
00:26:11,633 --> 00:26:13,403
in which the subject of digging
is coming up.
617
00:26:13,533 --> 00:26:15,203
It's not a subject
that we engage lightly,
618
00:26:15,333 --> 00:26:16,773
given all the things
that have happened
619
00:26:16,900 --> 00:26:18,300
in connection with digging.
620
00:26:19,633 --> 00:26:22,873
BRANDON:
Um, I really appreciate
your efforts,
621
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,730
but we know that things have
happened on that ranch,
622
00:26:25,867 --> 00:26:28,927
uh, and continue to happen
623
00:26:29,066 --> 00:26:30,826
when there's construction
activity or any digging.
624
00:26:30,967 --> 00:26:34,727
It bears mentioning that
we saw 45,000 gallons
625
00:26:34,867 --> 00:26:36,197
of water disappear.
626
00:26:36,333 --> 00:26:37,573
It must be going
somewhere rapidly.
627
00:26:37,700 --> 00:26:40,170
I don't see anything
that says don't do it.
628
00:26:40,300 --> 00:26:43,000
That is motivation enough
to start at least
629
00:26:43,133 --> 00:26:45,003
some kind of digging
into the problem.
630
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:50,770
Dragon, do you feel that
the digging is warranted?
631
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,070
You guys should take
a look at Kaleb's phone.
632
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:00,270
I don't have any control
over it.
633
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:01,930
It just goes right past
my pass code.
634
00:27:02,066 --> 00:27:03,826
-It's just instantly
hacking that?
-Just goes right past it.
635
00:27:03,967 --> 00:27:06,327
That's almost technologically
impossible to do,
636
00:27:06,467 --> 00:27:07,597
and it's doing it
instantaneously?
637
00:27:07,734 --> 00:27:09,734
Something here is
crying out for help.
638
00:27:14,967 --> 00:27:16,467
BRANDON:
Dragon,
639
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,470
do you feel that
the digging is warranted?
640
00:27:22,300 --> 00:27:25,330
Well, Brandon,
I mean, obviously,
641
00:27:25,467 --> 00:27:27,127
the lore associated
with digging,
642
00:27:27,266 --> 00:27:29,026
there's no way to protect
against that.
643
00:27:29,166 --> 00:27:32,766
But we put some safety protocols
in place now.
644
00:27:32,900 --> 00:27:34,870
We've had Casey
with Qal-Tek back out.
645
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,200
Yeah, I think that it's time
646
00:27:36,333 --> 00:27:38,473
that we need to get
below the ground.
647
00:27:40,100 --> 00:27:42,500
BRANDON:
Well, based on recommendation,
648
00:27:42,633 --> 00:27:44,673
you have my permission
to proceed.
649
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,600
But proceed with great caution.
650
00:27:46,734 --> 00:27:49,774
-We'll do it.
-Okay, we'll keep you posted
on what we find out.
651
00:27:49,900 --> 00:27:51,100
Thanks again, Brandon.
652
00:27:51,233 --> 00:27:52,403
Okay, bye.
653
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,100
-There it is.
-We're gonna dig a hole.
-Yeah.
654
00:27:56,233 --> 00:27:58,033
BRYANT:
He's given us the go-ahead
to bring in some heavy equipment
655
00:27:58,166 --> 00:28:00,526
and do some digging.
It could be the key
656
00:28:00,667 --> 00:28:03,327
to figuring out
what exactly is going on here,
657
00:28:03,467 --> 00:28:05,327
or at least give us direction
658
00:28:05,467 --> 00:28:06,927
as to where we need to go next.
659
00:28:07,066 --> 00:28:09,096
In the meantime, we got
a lot of stuff to do.
660
00:28:09,233 --> 00:28:12,003
-That's right.
-Let's get out of here.
-All right, man.
661
00:28:24,166 --> 00:28:26,666
BRYANT (over walkie-talkie):
You guys all loaded up in
the Jeep, ready to come out?
662
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:28,500
TRAVIS:
Copy that, Dragon.
We're all here.
663
00:28:28,633 --> 00:28:30,403
We're on our way out. We'll be
out there in just a few minutes.
664
00:28:30,533 --> 00:28:33,503
-BRYANT: Copy that. See you.
-Over and out.
665
00:28:33,633 --> 00:28:35,933
TRAVIS:
Couple days ago,
we ran a dye test by the pit
666
00:28:36,066 --> 00:28:37,196
over at Homestead Two
667
00:28:37,333 --> 00:28:39,433
to find out
where the water was going.
668
00:28:39,567 --> 00:28:43,027
But after the test,
we still don't know
669
00:28:43,166 --> 00:28:45,696
why it disappeared
or where it went to.
670
00:28:45,834 --> 00:28:49,574
We all got a little bit of
bad vibe juju, mojo
671
00:28:49,700 --> 00:28:51,030
about digging, right?
672
00:28:51,166 --> 00:28:52,926
And we don't none of us
believe it,
673
00:28:53,066 --> 00:28:56,166
but at the same time,
we want to do it cautiously.
674
00:28:56,300 --> 00:28:58,200
Yeah. I think we can make
our own protocol and, you know,
675
00:28:58,333 --> 00:29:00,803
say every two, three feet,
let's just sample.
676
00:29:00,934 --> 00:29:02,474
And we'll be monitoring
constantly.
677
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,170
The other thing, too, that
I want y'all to be aware of,
678
00:29:05,300 --> 00:29:07,470
I think Dragon's really nervous.
679
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,330
He don't want to show it,
but I think he is.
680
00:29:10,467 --> 00:29:12,567
-Yeah, I don't blame him.
-So, uh, let's...
681
00:29:12,700 --> 00:29:14,500
Let's just make sure
that he understands
682
00:29:14,633 --> 00:29:16,803
that we're doing everything
that we can possibly
683
00:29:16,934 --> 00:29:19,734
think of to do
to keep everybody safe.
684
00:29:19,867 --> 00:29:21,167
Absolutely.
685
00:29:27,633 --> 00:29:30,173
It's a good thing
I'm so cautious about this
686
00:29:30,300 --> 00:29:31,900
or I'd have just
started digging.
687
00:29:32,033 --> 00:29:33,603
-Getting tired of waiting.
-Right?
688
00:29:33,734 --> 00:29:35,604
TRAVIS:
Brandon gave us
permission to dig,
689
00:29:35,734 --> 00:29:38,934
so Thomas got a mini excavator
delivered to the ranch.
690
00:29:39,066 --> 00:29:39,966
We've got Casey here
691
00:29:40,100 --> 00:29:41,570
with all sorts of test equipment
692
00:29:41,700 --> 00:29:44,000
to make sure we're not being
exposed to something dangerous,
693
00:29:44,133 --> 00:29:45,803
and we're gonna start digging.
694
00:29:45,934 --> 00:29:49,074
Brandon's given us
the go-ahead to dig,
695
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,930
but with that, I want to make
sure that we do so cautiously.
696
00:29:52,066 --> 00:29:55,926
So, Casey, thank you again
for coming all the way out here,
697
00:29:56,066 --> 00:29:59,266
um, and bringing
all your equipment.
698
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,130
It's no secret that
I have concerns whenever
699
00:30:01,266 --> 00:30:03,966
the topic of digging
on the ranch is brought up.
700
00:30:04,100 --> 00:30:08,570
As excited as we are about this,
every time that
701
00:30:08,700 --> 00:30:11,570
someone does a major digging
on this property,
702
00:30:11,700 --> 00:30:14,070
then bad things happen.
703
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,400
Prior to last year,
Thomas Winterton had
704
00:30:16,533 --> 00:30:19,173
a very serious head injury
that almost took his life.
705
00:30:19,300 --> 00:30:20,930
We almost lost him
because of it.
706
00:30:21,066 --> 00:30:24,066
Now, I know
that there are answers
707
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:25,730
that we're trying to
get to the bottom of
708
00:30:25,867 --> 00:30:30,297
that may actually require
more of that sort of activity,
709
00:30:30,433 --> 00:30:32,433
but I want to make sure that
710
00:30:32,567 --> 00:30:35,097
we're not getting ourselves
in trouble.
711
00:30:35,233 --> 00:30:37,073
-Are we ready?
-You ready to start digging?
712
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,430
-Yeah.
-Well, let's get set up
713
00:30:39,567 --> 00:30:41,527
-and let's-let's get moving.
-All right, sounds good.
714
00:30:46,967 --> 00:30:48,927
(engine starts)
715
00:30:51,066 --> 00:30:52,226
And away we go.
716
00:30:56,567 --> 00:30:58,297
The first step is
717
00:30:58,433 --> 00:31:00,573
to clean that brush
out of that hole,
718
00:31:00,700 --> 00:31:02,130
dig down and try to figure out
719
00:31:02,266 --> 00:31:03,526
where that water's
disappearing to.
720
00:31:03,667 --> 00:31:05,197
Uh, just wait for him to get
721
00:31:05,333 --> 00:31:06,833
more of those branches
out of the way.
722
00:31:06,967 --> 00:31:08,067
TRAVIS:
Yeah, that's gonna
be great to see
723
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,600
what's down at the bottom
of that thing.
724
00:31:10,667 --> 00:31:12,367
ERIK:
I think we're looking for
a couple of things
725
00:31:12,500 --> 00:31:14,370
with this digging exercise.
726
00:31:14,500 --> 00:31:16,670
We're interested in locating
727
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,670
an exit point
for all that water.
728
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,900
Second, we're interested
in determining whether we,
729
00:31:22,033 --> 00:31:24,573
in the process of digging,
perhaps stir up
730
00:31:24,700 --> 00:31:26,570
something radioactive,
731
00:31:26,700 --> 00:31:28,470
something that
may have been detected
732
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,370
in our earlier exercises.
733
00:31:30,500 --> 00:31:32,670
TRAVIS:
There's a lot of stuff
in that hole, man.
734
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,370
ERIK:
And, of course, there's
always the question of,
735
00:31:35,500 --> 00:31:37,500
when you upset the earth,
does anything
736
00:31:37,633 --> 00:31:40,233
ranch phenomenon related
take place?
737
00:31:40,367 --> 00:31:42,567
BRYANT (over walkie-talkie):
Hey, Thomas?
738
00:31:42,700 --> 00:31:45,200
-Yeah?
-Let's do a safety sweep
739
00:31:45,333 --> 00:31:47,533
-while we got it right here.
-Okay.
740
00:31:47,667 --> 00:31:51,567
CASEY:
For the dig today, I brought
my radiation equipment.
741
00:31:51,700 --> 00:31:53,030
I brought back the rad defender,
742
00:31:53,166 --> 00:31:55,066
which is our sensitive
gamma probe.
743
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,030
Basically, what we can do
with that-that probe
744
00:31:58,166 --> 00:32:00,696
is we can attach it to the end
745
00:32:00,834 --> 00:32:03,274
and telescope it out without,
you know... And we can be back
746
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:05,770
at a safe distance
from whatever we're doing.
747
00:32:05,900 --> 00:32:08,970
You know, uh, I mean, that dirt
looks a little sandy here,
748
00:32:09,100 --> 00:32:10,800
but you can barely
call this a hole.
749
00:32:10,934 --> 00:32:12,804
I don't know where
45,000 gallons went.
750
00:32:12,934 --> 00:32:15,034
TRAVIS:
Yeah, where...?
Yeah, 45,000 gallons
751
00:32:15,166 --> 00:32:17,926
of water with the green dye
in it that we never found.
752
00:32:18,066 --> 00:32:20,566
Right? Where did it go?
753
00:32:22,233 --> 00:32:24,273
More background, so...
754
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,530
-Okay.
-Um, so I don't
see anything above...
755
00:32:26,667 --> 00:32:28,467
-above my background.
-Okay.
756
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,130
I'm gonna get out of your way.
757
00:32:30,266 --> 00:32:32,126
We can start digging dirt.
758
00:32:34,333 --> 00:32:36,873
So, we've got the brush
cleared out.
759
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,070
Not locating any trace
of dye anywhere.
760
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,030
The next step really is to
761
00:32:42,166 --> 00:32:43,596
dig down and try to figure out
762
00:32:43,734 --> 00:32:45,134
where that water
is disappearing to.
763
00:32:45,266 --> 00:32:48,526
TRAVIS:
Look at that.
That is like potting soil.
764
00:32:53,367 --> 00:32:55,627
You guys should
take a look at this,
765
00:32:55,767 --> 00:32:57,897
what's happening
with-with Kaleb's phone.
766
00:32:58,033 --> 00:33:00,833
So, what all's it doing?
767
00:33:00,967 --> 00:33:03,027
It's doing what it's done
in the past.
768
00:33:03,166 --> 00:33:07,366
It goes into different apps.
It's taken a couple screenshots.
769
00:33:07,500 --> 00:33:09,270
I don't have
any control over it.
770
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,100
It shut itself off,
it's turning back on,
771
00:33:12,233 --> 00:33:14,133
and it just goes
right past my pass code.
772
00:33:14,266 --> 00:33:15,526
TRAVIS:
It's just instantly
hacking that.
773
00:33:15,667 --> 00:33:18,067
KALEB:
And it just goes right past it.
774
00:33:19,266 --> 00:33:21,626
Uh, that's-that's almost
technologically impossible
775
00:33:21,767 --> 00:33:24,097
-to do, and it's doing
it instantaneously?
-Yup.
776
00:33:28,100 --> 00:33:29,800
TRAVIS:
We just start
digging out the pit,
777
00:33:29,934 --> 00:33:32,304
and Kaleb's phone is
really wigging out.
778
00:33:32,433 --> 00:33:35,003
It's like somebody has
opened up his phone,
779
00:33:35,133 --> 00:33:38,873
unlocked the pass code, and is
going through all of his apps,
780
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,370
trying to dial random contacts.
781
00:33:41,500 --> 00:33:44,700
Currently, even
the National Security Agency
782
00:33:44,834 --> 00:33:49,204
doesn't even have the technology
to hack that kind of encryption.
783
00:33:49,333 --> 00:33:52,103
That is startling to me.
784
00:33:52,233 --> 00:33:55,503
And it-it tried calling, uh, 911
785
00:33:55,633 --> 00:33:58,973
and my dispatch number
within a minute.
786
00:33:59,100 --> 00:34:01,770
TRAVIS:
That startles me.
787
00:34:01,900 --> 00:34:04,530
So, if you go
to the exotic, then,
788
00:34:04,667 --> 00:34:06,267
something here is
crying out for help.
789
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,300
KALEB:
Or is it giving us a warning?
790
00:34:15,300 --> 00:34:19,100
If there's something
that has that kind of decryption
791
00:34:19,233 --> 00:34:22,503
hacking capability, that, to me,
scares the hell out of me.
792
00:34:22,633 --> 00:34:24,203
Kaleb, it was right there.
793
00:34:24,333 --> 00:34:26,833
Let's go up there, and let's see
if there's tracks or something.
794
00:34:26,967 --> 00:34:28,097
Y'all keep y'all's gun ready,
795
00:34:28,233 --> 00:34:29,673
in case a cat comes out
and eats us or something.
796
00:34:33,300 --> 00:34:34,670
Something here is
crying out for help.
797
00:34:36,300 --> 00:34:39,300
KALEB:
Or is it giving us a warning?
798
00:34:39,433 --> 00:34:43,133
THOMAS: So, here we are digging
this hole, and Kaleb's screen
799
00:34:43,266 --> 00:34:46,966
starts opening up apps,
trying to make phone calls.
800
00:34:47,100 --> 00:34:48,430
TRAVIS:
To me, that's one... this is
801
00:34:48,567 --> 00:34:50,227
one of the most
startling things because
802
00:34:50,367 --> 00:34:53,167
if there's something
that has that kind
803
00:34:53,300 --> 00:34:56,330
of decryption
hacking capability,
804
00:34:56,467 --> 00:34:58,097
that, to me, scares
the hell out of me.
805
00:35:00,633 --> 00:35:02,003
Kaleb's phone
806
00:35:02,133 --> 00:35:04,373
wigging out is-is really...
is freaking me out.
807
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:05,830
That can't be done.
808
00:35:05,967 --> 00:35:08,067
You can't hack the iPhone.
809
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,630
Well, I'm gonna tell you,
just based on previous history,
810
00:35:11,767 --> 00:35:14,667
I've done digging before
with my equipment, and it's been
811
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,830
a day or two later
that something really bad
812
00:35:16,967 --> 00:35:18,567
has happened to the equipment,
813
00:35:18,700 --> 00:35:21,130
even up to the point of throwing
a rod through the motors.
814
00:35:21,266 --> 00:35:24,966
So, you know, it's not
always instantaneous.
815
00:35:25,100 --> 00:35:30,670
That exact phone has done
these things when the cow died.
816
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,670
My phone starts freaking out
whenever your TriField goes off.
817
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,570
I don't have any control
over my phone right now.
818
00:35:36,700 --> 00:35:38,670
THOMAS: When the rockets
were shooting off...
819
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:40,000
One. Ignition.
820
00:35:42,433 --> 00:35:45,303
THOMAS:
Every time we've had
something big happening
821
00:35:45,433 --> 00:35:47,973
at the ranch, it seems like
he's got issues with that phone.
822
00:35:48,100 --> 00:35:50,370
KALEB:
It's just been doing this
for the last couple minutes.
823
00:35:50,500 --> 00:35:52,730
Well, I mean,
we need to figure out
824
00:35:52,867 --> 00:35:54,397
what we can scratch
off the list, right?
825
00:35:54,533 --> 00:35:57,403
-Whoa. Whoa.
-Is it doing it again?
826
00:35:57,533 --> 00:36:01,603
I'm changing my password, and
it is... interfering with it.
827
00:36:01,734 --> 00:36:03,304
ERIK:
Oh, wow.
828
00:36:03,433 --> 00:36:06,503
KALEB:
It's never done this
off the ranch.
829
00:36:08,567 --> 00:36:10,397
Hey, Erik, you got
your-your cell phone with you?
830
00:36:10,533 --> 00:36:12,133
-I do. I'm getting...
-Snap some video
of that really quick.
831
00:36:12,266 --> 00:36:14,096
I'm gonna try to get... We have
to get out of the sunlight
832
00:36:14,233 --> 00:36:15,633
-so I can actually see this.
-Yeah.
833
00:36:15,767 --> 00:36:17,467
Well, why would somebody
be hacking your phone
834
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:21,030
in the middle of the Uintah
Basin, you know, in Utah?
835
00:36:21,166 --> 00:36:23,126
ERIK:
Well, we know
its screen is broken.
836
00:36:23,266 --> 00:36:25,926
Yeah, the screen is broken,
but that's where I...
837
00:36:26,066 --> 00:36:28,226
I have normal function with it
even with the broken screen.
838
00:36:28,367 --> 00:36:30,097
Like, there's no interference
when I'm using it.
839
00:36:30,233 --> 00:36:31,733
CASEY:
I mean, another thing, too.
840
00:36:31,867 --> 00:36:33,727
How does a...? Even if
it's got a cracked screen,
841
00:36:33,867 --> 00:36:35,467
how does it get past
the password?
842
00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:39,470
Well, the only thing
I can say is...
843
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:41,030
keep an eye on it.
844
00:36:41,166 --> 00:36:42,696
If it does anything else,
845
00:36:42,834 --> 00:36:45,134
let us know,
but other than that,
846
00:36:45,266 --> 00:36:47,396
I mean, let's get back
to what we're here for.
847
00:36:47,533 --> 00:36:49,203
I say, dig on.
848
00:36:55,867 --> 00:36:58,467
Kaleb's phone
was freaking me out and...
849
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,170
I-I really can't explain it,
850
00:37:01,300 --> 00:37:03,000
but nothing weird is happening
other than that,
851
00:37:03,133 --> 00:37:06,233
so I say we keep digging
to see where this water went.
852
00:37:13,300 --> 00:37:16,100
Hey, Thomas, we're gonna do
a quick check on that spot.
853
00:37:16,233 --> 00:37:17,473
(engine stops)
854
00:37:21,233 --> 00:37:24,373
-It feels like
it's just pure clay.
-CASEY: It is.
855
00:37:28,900 --> 00:37:30,000
THOMAS:
Nothing?
856
00:37:30,133 --> 00:37:32,073
Nothing.
857
00:37:34,300 --> 00:37:35,530
BRYANT:
And you haven't hit anything
858
00:37:35,667 --> 00:37:38,327
other than just
soft clay dirt, right?
859
00:37:38,467 --> 00:37:40,467
It's just cl--
It feels like just clay.
860
00:37:41,767 --> 00:37:43,667
-You're a hydrologist, right?
-Yeah.
861
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:45,800
Would you expect wa--
45,000 gallons
862
00:37:45,934 --> 00:37:48,204
to go down through that
so quick?
863
00:37:50,233 --> 00:37:51,933
I mean, there could be
other places.
864
00:37:52,066 --> 00:37:54,026
There's voids here that
we're not-- we-we haven't saw.
865
00:37:54,166 --> 00:37:56,866
I mean, and so,
that could be a possibility.
866
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,700
Clay just doesn't
allow water to seep in,
867
00:37:59,834 --> 00:38:03,174
and I can't help but wonder
if it's not an opening
868
00:38:03,300 --> 00:38:07,330
or some kind of tunnel that
this water is escaping into.
869
00:38:07,467 --> 00:38:09,927
Around here,
we line our ponds with clay
870
00:38:10,066 --> 00:38:11,626
-because it holds the water.
-TRAVIS: Right.
871
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,170
So, where did the water go?
872
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,270
Thomas has dug all the way down
to about 16 feet,
873
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,330
and we still don't know
where that 45,000 gallons
874
00:38:23,467 --> 00:38:25,567
of water went.
875
00:38:25,700 --> 00:38:27,570
It's getting late,
so we're just gonna wrap it up
876
00:38:27,700 --> 00:38:29,700
and go back and think about
what are next step is.
877
00:38:30,867 --> 00:38:34,027
And out of all of this,
nobody's meters went crazy...
878
00:38:34,166 --> 00:38:35,566
-Nothing. Nothing.
-...no-no weird detections?
879
00:38:35,700 --> 00:38:37,400
The only thing is
Kaleb's crazy phone thing.
880
00:38:37,533 --> 00:38:39,133
Yeah.
881
00:38:53,100 --> 00:38:55,170
TRAVIS: Just a little more
than eight hours after digging
882
00:38:55,300 --> 00:38:58,530
down at the pit by
Homestead Two on the ranch,
883
00:38:58,667 --> 00:39:00,727
we're sitting down,
eating hamburgers
884
00:39:00,867 --> 00:39:02,527
around the picnic table
outside my trailer,
885
00:39:02,667 --> 00:39:05,867
and then Kaleb shines
his light into the woods.
886
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,030
And I'm like, "What's going on?"
887
00:39:08,166 --> 00:39:10,866
Uh, and he says,
"Well, do you guys hear that?"
888
00:39:12,100 --> 00:39:14,970
So, I get up
and walk behind him.
889
00:39:15,100 --> 00:39:17,730
And as we turn the corner,
there is this unmistakable
890
00:39:17,867 --> 00:39:21,527
rectangular shaped object
891
00:39:21,667 --> 00:39:23,567
that was glimmering
or shimmering.
892
00:39:23,700 --> 00:39:26,030
And then the thing
instantly vanished.
893
00:39:26,166 --> 00:39:28,096
I'm recording this!
894
00:39:28,233 --> 00:39:30,933
So, Kaleb, point your--
right there.
895
00:39:31,066 --> 00:39:35,096
It was right there, something
yellow and goldish color
896
00:39:35,233 --> 00:39:36,803
and it was rectangular.
897
00:39:36,934 --> 00:39:38,304
Kaleb, I thought
it went this way.
898
00:39:38,433 --> 00:39:40,133
KALEB:
I-- That's what I thought, too.
899
00:39:40,266 --> 00:39:42,426
Just go up there and let's see
if there's tracks or something,
900
00:39:42,567 --> 00:39:44,697
so we can see what we got.
901
00:39:44,834 --> 00:39:46,974
I feel like my training
kind of kicks in and I'm like,
902
00:39:47,100 --> 00:39:49,130
"Okay, I'm going after this.
Where-where did it go?"
903
00:39:49,266 --> 00:39:52,026
TRAVIS:
Kaleb, y'all keep y'all's gun
ready in case it--
904
00:39:52,166 --> 00:39:53,566
a cat jumps out
and eats us or something.
905
00:39:53,700 --> 00:39:56,870
I mean, if it, if it ran
through here, that's soft.
906
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,200
There would be tracks.
907
00:39:58,333 --> 00:40:00,303
We didn't see the brush move.
908
00:40:00,433 --> 00:40:02,203
We didn't hear footsteps.
909
00:40:02,333 --> 00:40:04,533
We didn't physically
see it run away.
910
00:40:04,667 --> 00:40:05,927
It just vanished.
911
00:40:06,066 --> 00:40:08,026
That scared the (bleep)
out of me.
912
00:40:09,166 --> 00:40:11,026
I mean, I thought we were
about to be, you know,
913
00:40:11,166 --> 00:40:12,566
having a confrontation
with something
914
00:40:12,700 --> 00:40:14,100
-that wanted to eat us.
-Like a frickin' mountain lion.
915
00:40:14,233 --> 00:40:16,073
-Yeah.
-THOMAS: There is
that one hole up there
916
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,470
that I was looking and I,
and I swear I heard, like,
917
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,770
some type of twig snap.
918
00:40:20,900 --> 00:40:22,300
But the only way you can see it
919
00:40:22,433 --> 00:40:24,133
is to put your head down
in the hole.
920
00:40:24,266 --> 00:40:28,126
TRAVIS:
I'm telling you right now
that there-there was clearly
921
00:40:28,266 --> 00:40:32,066
-something right there
watching us eat.
-KALEB: Yeah.
922
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,600
TRAVIS:
I'm turning off the camera,
by the way.
923
00:40:34,734 --> 00:40:37,274
-(camera beeps)
-As soon as I stopped
the video,
924
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,970
looking due south,
something darts across the sky.
925
00:40:42,533 --> 00:40:45,073
It was just a bright streak,
just boom, real quick.
926
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,230
-(camera beeps)
-(bleep)
927
00:40:47,367 --> 00:40:49,297
I thought the excitement
was over, and then suddenly
928
00:40:49,433 --> 00:40:51,433
something just shoots
across the sky.
929
00:40:51,567 --> 00:40:53,197
I want to come out here,
all of this.
930
00:40:53,333 --> 00:40:54,973
I want us to come out here
tomorrow in the daylight
931
00:40:55,100 --> 00:40:56,830
and survey the (bleep)
out of this.
932
00:40:58,333 --> 00:41:01,533
First, we find evidence
of a mysterious void
933
00:41:01,667 --> 00:41:03,967
that's right next
to Homestead Two.
934
00:41:04,100 --> 00:41:06,330
We dig, and then
all of the sudden,
935
00:41:06,467 --> 00:41:08,367
Kaleb's phone
goes completely haywire
936
00:41:08,500 --> 00:41:11,300
like someone, or something,
has hacked into it.
937
00:41:11,433 --> 00:41:13,433
And now this really
strange encounter.
938
00:41:13,567 --> 00:41:16,097
I can't help but wonder if all
these things are connected.
939
00:41:16,233 --> 00:41:18,773
And, if like others
before us have warned,
940
00:41:18,900 --> 00:41:20,970
did our digging
cause this response?
941
00:41:22,433 --> 00:41:24,833
BRYANT:
Getting the feeling
that we're being watched
942
00:41:24,967 --> 00:41:27,367
or even possibly stalked
by something
943
00:41:27,500 --> 00:41:30,170
while we're outside
just having dinner
944
00:41:30,300 --> 00:41:33,030
really raises
the concern level heavily.
945
00:41:33,166 --> 00:41:36,926
So, we need to be very vigilant,
because this is an area
946
00:41:37,066 --> 00:41:39,496
that is dangerous and things are
947
00:41:39,633 --> 00:41:41,433
constantly going on out here.
948
00:41:41,567 --> 00:41:44,697
ERIK:
There are a few activities
planned for this summer
949
00:41:44,834 --> 00:41:46,774
that have me mildly concerned.
950
00:41:46,900 --> 00:41:50,030
And I have absolutely no idea
what to expect from them.
951
00:41:50,166 --> 00:41:54,596
BRANDON:
Just when you least expect it,
the ranch comes alive,
952
00:41:54,734 --> 00:41:56,704
and I want to get some answers.
953
00:41:56,834 --> 00:41:59,634
I want to better understand
954
00:41:59,767 --> 00:42:03,827
what is causing the phenomena
at Skinwalker Ranch.
955
00:42:03,967 --> 00:42:06,667
Understanding the nature
of these events
956
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,830
that continue to occur,
that defy explanation,
957
00:42:09,967 --> 00:42:12,867
really drives
our investigation forward.
958
00:42:17,233 --> 00:42:19,333
TRAVIS:
There's still a lot of
weird things about the ranch
959
00:42:19,467 --> 00:42:21,497
that we can't explain.
960
00:42:21,633 --> 00:42:23,333
I do sense a presence here.
961
00:42:23,467 --> 00:42:26,727
I get visitors; alien activity.
962
00:42:26,867 --> 00:42:28,167
TRAVIS:
You can see the mesa
glow in that camera.
963
00:42:28,300 --> 00:42:29,270
BRYANT:
Unreal.
964
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:31,200
When you walked
inside the building,
965
00:42:31,333 --> 00:42:32,733
it didn't take any data.
966
00:42:32,867 --> 00:42:34,997
ERIK: The temperature
around the homestead
967
00:42:35,133 --> 00:42:36,433
began to drop.
968
00:42:36,567 --> 00:42:38,427
TRAVIS: You're in launch,
the electromagnetic
969
00:42:38,567 --> 00:42:40,497
spectrum is going crazy, guys.
970
00:42:40,633 --> 00:42:41,573
-(bellowing)
-Hey, look, the cows--
971
00:42:41,700 --> 00:42:43,170
something's got the cows
going nuts.
972
00:42:43,300 --> 00:42:45,770
Thomas has spotted a light.
973
00:42:45,900 --> 00:42:47,170
TRAVIS:
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
974
00:42:47,300 --> 00:42:48,530
Right here.
975
00:42:48,667 --> 00:42:49,997
What do you think it is?
976
00:42:50,133 --> 00:42:51,103
It is a portal.
977
00:42:51,233 --> 00:42:52,933
Holy (bleep)!
978
00:42:53,066 --> 00:42:54,366
We got something,
we got something!
979
00:42:54,500 --> 00:42:55,670
I'm leaving the ranch.
980
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,070
-I'm getting a bad headache.
-Are you serious?
981
00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:58,930
What I saw doesn't belong here.
982
00:42:59,066 --> 00:43:00,726
I'm a little nervous. Hold on.
983
00:43:00,867 --> 00:43:02,567
Hey.
984
00:43:02,700 --> 00:43:04,430
BRANDON:
We're engaging the phenomena.
985
00:43:04,567 --> 00:43:08,127
The question is, are you willing
to all accept the risks?
986
00:43:08,266 --> 00:43:09,266
-(alert beeping)
-CAMERON: Though something
987
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:10,930
-could be under us.
-What the hell
988
00:43:11,066 --> 00:43:12,826
-is under us? I don't get it.
-It's stayed with us
989
00:43:12,967 --> 00:43:13,927
-the whole time.
-It's following us.
990
00:43:15,300 --> 00:43:17,330
TRAVIS:
Crazy things happen
on Skinwalker Ranch.
