Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,042 --> 00:00:03,167
We don't know what it is,
there's a big anomaly
2
00:00:03,333 --> 00:00:05,250
in the ground-penetrating radar
right there.
3
00:00:06,042 --> 00:00:08,000
THOMAS:
What the heck?
4
00:00:08,167 --> 00:00:10,000
BRYANT:
What in the hell is that?
5
00:00:10,125 --> 00:00:12,750
That pink rock
doesn't look natural.
6
00:00:12,875 --> 00:00:15,000
THOMAS:
We've never done a mortar shell
7
00:00:15,125 --> 00:00:17,417
where it's got a big percussion.
8
00:00:17,542 --> 00:00:18,667
TRAVIS:
There we go.
9
00:00:19,542 --> 00:00:21,000
Whoa, what was that purple light
over there?
10
00:00:21,167 --> 00:00:22,750
I'm gonna head down.
We need to know
11
00:00:22,875 --> 00:00:24,833
if this is
a reaction to that rocket.
12
00:00:24,958 --> 00:00:25,750
TRAVIS:
What is that?
13
00:00:25,875 --> 00:00:26,833
It looks like
14
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,625
this thing's following Thomas.
15
00:00:29,542 --> 00:00:33,167
NARRATOR:
There is a ranch
in Northern Utah.
16
00:00:33,292 --> 00:00:35,542
It is considered the epicenter
17
00:00:35,667 --> 00:00:40,542
of the strangest and most
disturbing phenomena on Earth:
18
00:00:40,708 --> 00:00:43,250
animal mutilations,
19
00:00:43,375 --> 00:00:45,833
bizarre UFO sightings
20
00:00:45,917 --> 00:00:50,042
and unusual energies that have
proven harmful to humans.
21
00:00:50,167 --> 00:00:53,083
For 20 years,
the federal government
22
00:00:53,208 --> 00:00:56,083
tried to find answers
and failed.
23
00:00:56,208 --> 00:01:00,333
Now a new team
of dedicated scientists,
24
00:01:00,500 --> 00:01:04,250
researchers and experts
has taken over.
25
00:01:04,375 --> 00:01:08,292
They are determined to solve
the mystery and reveal...
26
00:01:10,917 --> 00:01:14,292
...The Secret
of Skinwalker Ranch.
27
00:01:21,833 --> 00:01:24,000
Clearly, um...
28
00:01:24,083 --> 00:01:26,250
you guys saw something,
a purple light.
29
00:01:26,375 --> 00:01:28,333
THOMAS: Yeah, I saw
it multiple times, right?
30
00:01:28,417 --> 00:01:30,250
The way that it correlated
with the timing
31
00:01:30,375 --> 00:01:33,042
of the launches was
very interesting.
32
00:01:33,208 --> 00:01:35,292
-It was really bright.
-Okay.
33
00:01:35,375 --> 00:01:37,833
Last night
we were hoping to zero
34
00:01:37,958 --> 00:01:40,125
in on the cause
of all the energy spikes,
35
00:01:40,250 --> 00:01:43,667
GPS anomalies and UAPs
that we keep seeing
36
00:01:43,792 --> 00:01:47,417
in the so-called triangle
here on Skinwalker Ranch.
37
00:01:48,667 --> 00:01:51,500
But instead, the rockets
and mortars that we launched
38
00:01:51,625 --> 00:01:54,417
seemed to have triggered two
new phenomena that we've never
39
00:01:54,542 --> 00:01:58,833
seen before hundreds of yards
away in the south field.
40
00:01:58,958 --> 00:02:00,833
THOMAS: Whoa, what was
that purple light over there?
41
00:02:00,917 --> 00:02:03,875
TRAVIS: Thomas Winterton saw
what he described as a purple
42
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,667
flashing light
in the south field,
43
00:02:05,792 --> 00:02:08,167
but when he went over
there to investigate it
44
00:02:08,292 --> 00:02:11,292
with Tom Lewis and Kandus Linde,
it disappeared.
45
00:02:11,375 --> 00:02:13,167
Neither one of us has seen
46
00:02:13,292 --> 00:02:15,000
anything to account
for that purple light.
47
00:02:15,125 --> 00:02:17,083
TRAVIS:
And then Kaleb Bench and I
48
00:02:17,208 --> 00:02:19,167
saw a UAP above him
49
00:02:19,292 --> 00:02:21,583
in our night vision scope
that seemed to be
50
00:02:21,708 --> 00:02:24,583
tracking his movements,
like it was stalking him.
51
00:02:24,708 --> 00:02:27,333
If you've got the,
the footage of that light,
52
00:02:27,417 --> 00:02:28,667
I'd love to see it
'cause I never
53
00:02:28,833 --> 00:02:30,000
did get to actually see it.
54
00:02:30,167 --> 00:02:31,833
So I've...
I've got the video up here.
55
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,000
So, guys, look there. We've
got our familiar landmarks.
56
00:02:35,083 --> 00:02:37,000
We know what those lights are.
57
00:02:37,083 --> 00:02:38,917
TRAVIS: They're security lights
at the houses,
58
00:02:39,042 --> 00:02:40,375
you know, far enough away.
59
00:02:40,500 --> 00:02:42,042
Okay, I'll continue playing.
60
00:02:42,208 --> 00:02:43,792
For purple.
61
00:02:43,875 --> 00:02:45,167
TRAVIS:
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
62
00:02:45,333 --> 00:02:46,667
-ERIK: There, right there.
-TRAVIS: Whoa, right.
63
00:02:46,750 --> 00:02:47,708
That's it, though.
64
00:02:48,667 --> 00:02:50,958
ERIK: The first takeaway
for me looking at this is,
65
00:02:51,083 --> 00:02:54,458
okay, it is
at the same level in our shot
66
00:02:54,583 --> 00:02:58,250
as those known terrestrial,
uh, light sources.
67
00:02:58,375 --> 00:03:00,833
-Exactly.
-So it's down low.
68
00:03:00,917 --> 00:03:02,875
-It was not in the sky.
-Right.
69
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,250
Now the question is, what is it?
70
00:03:06,375 --> 00:03:09,167
So, when you compare
the size and the brightness
71
00:03:09,250 --> 00:03:11,208
and the intensity
of the light
72
00:03:11,333 --> 00:03:13,833
to the amber yard lights
and the white ones off there,
73
00:03:13,917 --> 00:03:17,917
you know, those lights are big,
big lights-- bright...
74
00:03:18,042 --> 00:03:20,375
-Mm-hmm.
-...and this is just as big.
75
00:03:20,542 --> 00:03:23,333
And-and the fact that it's
purple, maybe I'm wrong,
76
00:03:23,500 --> 00:03:25,500
but purple lights
don't carry as far as...?
77
00:03:25,667 --> 00:03:28,000
No, it's, uh, your eye
doesn't respond to purple.
78
00:03:28,125 --> 00:03:30,083
In fact, your eye responds best
to a greenish yellow color.
79
00:03:30,208 --> 00:03:33,000
For it to be a purple light
and you to see it,
80
00:03:33,125 --> 00:03:35,500
it had to be,
have a lot of energy in it.
81
00:03:35,625 --> 00:03:37,333
And so I find
that really interesting.
82
00:03:37,500 --> 00:03:39,667
As an optical scientist,
I've studied
83
00:03:39,750 --> 00:03:41,417
the light spectrum
that the human eye
84
00:03:41,542 --> 00:03:43,833
can see for more than 30 years.
85
00:03:43,958 --> 00:03:46,417
Purple is near the edge
of that spectrum.
86
00:03:46,542 --> 00:03:50,167
So, for it to be as bright
as this, it had to have been
87
00:03:50,292 --> 00:03:52,667
created by something
emitting a lot of energy.
88
00:03:52,792 --> 00:03:55,333
I'm not sure
what that could have been.
89
00:03:55,500 --> 00:03:57,333
While you're
chasing this purple light,
90
00:03:57,417 --> 00:04:00,333
uh, we've got what appears to be
91
00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:03,042
something blinking
over your heads
92
00:04:03,208 --> 00:04:05,000
only a couple hundred feet
above you
93
00:04:05,083 --> 00:04:06,542
and following your motion.
94
00:04:06,708 --> 00:04:08,875
-That is odd.
-Can you point it out to me?
95
00:04:09,042 --> 00:04:10,417
-Yeah, I'll-I'll show you.
-Okay.
96
00:04:10,542 --> 00:04:12,292
Kaleb and I could tell
this thing
97
00:04:12,417 --> 00:04:14,125
was moving and it was
right over your head.
98
00:04:14,208 --> 00:04:17,667
-THOMAS: I see it right there.
-Yeah, you see it right here.
99
00:04:18,958 --> 00:04:20,667
It was right over your heads,
100
00:04:20,833 --> 00:04:23,000
and it moved with you.
It was, like, a couple
101
00:04:23,125 --> 00:04:25,583
-hundred feet, at most,
above the ground.
-Okay.
102
00:04:25,708 --> 00:04:28,875
-See it right there,
how bright it was?
-I'm seeing it.
103
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,875
You can't, you can't miss it.
104
00:04:33,958 --> 00:04:36,625
Why is that happening
at the exact same time
105
00:04:36,708 --> 00:04:39,333
we're doing these, uh,
stimulation experiments,
106
00:04:39,458 --> 00:04:43,375
and there is a-a strange purple,
107
00:04:43,542 --> 00:04:46,333
uh, light or object
appearing on the property?
108
00:04:46,458 --> 00:04:47,958
I don't like that.
109
00:04:48,042 --> 00:04:49,667
-I-I don't like that either.
-I don't like the fact
110
00:04:49,792 --> 00:04:53,583
that there was something
following me as I was out there.
111
00:04:53,708 --> 00:04:55,833
If it was a human doing it,
it's a bad thing,
112
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,167
and if it wasn't a human doing
it, it's-- I don't know
113
00:04:58,292 --> 00:04:59,500
if that's a good thing or not.
114
00:04:59,667 --> 00:05:01,125
-Yeah.
-ERIK: Well, guys,
115
00:05:01,208 --> 00:05:03,500
thanks for helping me
look through this today.
116
00:05:03,625 --> 00:05:06,042
-Yeah, man.
-Yeah, we'll get back to work.
117
00:05:09,542 --> 00:05:11,625
THOMAS: We got the hole empty,
so we ready to drill again?
118
00:05:11,708 --> 00:05:15,000
-Yeah.
-TRAVIS: After our meeting
in the command center,
119
00:05:15,083 --> 00:05:18,167
Erik Thomas and I headed out
to the mesa where Aaron Blunt
120
00:05:18,333 --> 00:05:20,333
and his team
from Straight Shot Drillers
121
00:05:20,417 --> 00:05:23,333
were about to continue
another major investigation
122
00:05:23,417 --> 00:05:24,708
that we recently started.
123
00:05:24,833 --> 00:05:27,083
Would this drill,
would it drill through
124
00:05:27,208 --> 00:05:28,375
steel-reinforced concrete?
125
00:05:28,542 --> 00:05:30,250
-Yes.
-It would?
126
00:05:30,375 --> 00:05:32,000
Yeah, we do it
quite a few times.
127
00:05:32,125 --> 00:05:33,083
Okay.
128
00:05:33,208 --> 00:05:34,417
Last year...
129
00:05:35,375 --> 00:05:36,625
...Aaron drilled
at this location
130
00:05:36,750 --> 00:05:39,000
and his bit
scraped along the bottom
131
00:05:39,167 --> 00:05:41,625
of a 400-foot-long dome-shaped,
132
00:05:41,708 --> 00:05:43,708
possibly metal, object...
133
00:05:43,875 --> 00:05:46,458
Yeah, I'm up against something
pretty hard right now.
134
00:05:46,542 --> 00:05:48,292
TRAVIS:
The bit couldn't penetrate it,
135
00:05:48,375 --> 00:05:50,458
but scientific analysis
that we had
136
00:05:50,542 --> 00:05:52,417
conducted
on small fragments of metal
137
00:05:52,542 --> 00:05:55,000
that were in the spoils showed
138
00:05:55,083 --> 00:05:58,167
they were composed
of the same type of materials
139
00:05:58,250 --> 00:06:00,583
that NASA uses
on the space shuttle.
140
00:06:03,083 --> 00:06:04,625
That's actually
very interesting.
141
00:06:04,708 --> 00:06:06,667
And then, three weeks ago,
142
00:06:06,833 --> 00:06:09,625
we conducted new
ground-penetrating radar scans
143
00:06:09,708 --> 00:06:11,833
in this area
and found that there appears
144
00:06:11,917 --> 00:06:13,458
to be a second,
145
00:06:13,542 --> 00:06:16,083
120-foot-tall vertical anomaly
sitting
146
00:06:16,208 --> 00:06:19,667
just behind whatever
this dome-shaped object is.
147
00:06:19,833 --> 00:06:22,583
Whatever this is
is as tall as the mesa.
148
00:06:23,500 --> 00:06:25,375
So now we're having
Aaron drill
149
00:06:25,542 --> 00:06:27,375
from above
the dome-shaped anomaly
150
00:06:27,542 --> 00:06:29,125
in the hopes
that from this angle,
151
00:06:29,208 --> 00:06:32,542
he can penetrate it and reach
the vertical object behind it
152
00:06:32,667 --> 00:06:35,833
to help us figure out what
in this world they could be.
153
00:06:35,958 --> 00:06:38,667
I have one more question.
The, uh, the beacon
154
00:06:38,792 --> 00:06:40,667
on the end of the drill--
is it always on,
155
00:06:40,792 --> 00:06:43,208
or do you guys just turn it on
when you're looking to find it?
156
00:06:43,375 --> 00:06:44,958
It's always on
while we're drilling.
157
00:06:45,083 --> 00:06:46,708
And you're at 33 megahertz?
158
00:06:46,875 --> 00:06:47,958
-Yeah.
-Okay.
159
00:06:48,083 --> 00:06:52,000
So, when we're out drilling,
we have a beacon
160
00:06:52,125 --> 00:06:54,708
that you run in with the bit,
161
00:06:54,875 --> 00:06:57,667
and the locator will be
up on top of the mesa.
162
00:06:57,792 --> 00:06:59,875
So it'll send
a signal up to the locator
163
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,458
and it'll tell how deep it is,
where it's at,
164
00:07:02,583 --> 00:07:04,250
what direction it's going,
so we know
165
00:07:04,375 --> 00:07:06,167
where that bit is at all times.
166
00:07:06,292 --> 00:07:07,583
We're gonna look for that.
167
00:07:07,708 --> 00:07:09,250
-We got to look for it?
-Yeah.
168
00:07:09,375 --> 00:07:11,250
TRAVIS:
Aaron's drill beacon transmits
169
00:07:11,375 --> 00:07:13,250
at a frequency of 33 megahertz
170
00:07:13,375 --> 00:07:14,833
in order for the rig to track
171
00:07:14,958 --> 00:07:16,833
the drill bit's progress
underground.
172
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,792
That's good to know.
We will also monitor that signal
173
00:07:19,875 --> 00:07:22,167
with the spectrum
analyzer as they drill.
174
00:07:22,333 --> 00:07:24,000
Thomas, I want you to,
uh, keep an eye
175
00:07:24,125 --> 00:07:28,167
on the, uh, the gamma ray
detector fairly periodically.
176
00:07:28,292 --> 00:07:31,042
-Okay.
-TRAVIS: In the past,
when we've drilled here,
177
00:07:31,167 --> 00:07:34,500
we detected strange radiation
and energy frequencies,
178
00:07:34,583 --> 00:07:37,750
most notably one measuring
1.6 gigahertz,
179
00:07:37,875 --> 00:07:40,833
which I think could be some
kind of communication signal.
180
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,875
I just don't know
who or what could be
181
00:07:43,042 --> 00:07:45,583
trying to communicate
or how it might be related
182
00:07:45,708 --> 00:07:47,833
to these strange anomalies
in the mesa.
183
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,333
Yeah,
I say let's start drilling.
184
00:07:49,417 --> 00:07:50,708
(others assent)
185
00:07:55,292 --> 00:07:56,333
Did you get that one working?
186
00:07:56,417 --> 00:07:57,667
Yeah, I got 'em all working now.
187
00:07:57,792 --> 00:07:59,333
TRAVIS:
During the drilling operation
188
00:07:59,458 --> 00:08:01,667
we were using
our spectrum analyzer
189
00:08:01,750 --> 00:08:03,292
to detect
various energy signals...
190
00:08:03,417 --> 00:08:04,250
That's the beacon.
191
00:08:04,375 --> 00:08:05,500
Now, this included
192
00:08:05,667 --> 00:08:07,750
the drill beacon's 33-megahertz
signal,
193
00:08:07,875 --> 00:08:10,542
which we were monitoring
for any changes
194
00:08:10,708 --> 00:08:13,833
that might suggest some kind
of phenomena was affecting it.
195
00:08:15,208 --> 00:08:18,333
THOMAS: Uh, just a minor note
to let you guys know
196
00:08:18,458 --> 00:08:19,958
as we're about 160 feet in.
197
00:08:20,083 --> 00:08:22,000
I'm gonna head up the mesa
to where I can get eyes
198
00:08:22,125 --> 00:08:25,167
on Gavin and find out
how deep they are.
199
00:08:25,333 --> 00:08:27,583
Understood, copy and thanks.
200
00:08:28,917 --> 00:08:30,875
THOMAS: I'm getting more and
more excited with every foot
201
00:08:31,042 --> 00:08:32,667
that we're drilling
into the mesa.
202
00:08:32,792 --> 00:08:34,833
Last year
during our drilling exercise,
203
00:08:34,917 --> 00:08:37,958
we discovered metal
that was forged,
204
00:08:38,042 --> 00:08:40,667
that's not natural,
300 feet into the hill.
205
00:08:40,792 --> 00:08:42,792
Really, I'm most excited
about finding out
206
00:08:42,917 --> 00:08:44,750
what that metal is
inside the mesa.
207
00:08:44,875 --> 00:08:46,500
Right now we're
just about right here,
208
00:08:46,625 --> 00:08:48,125
-right below your feet.
-The drill bit's right here?
209
00:08:48,250 --> 00:08:50,375
Yep. That's where it's at.
He's trying to work it down,
210
00:08:50,500 --> 00:08:52,792
but it's...
it'll let him drill forward,
211
00:08:52,917 --> 00:08:55,333
but he's not able to work
it down as much as he'd like.
212
00:08:55,500 --> 00:08:57,500
Okay. What-what causes that?
213
00:08:57,625 --> 00:08:59,500
Um, just really tight ground
214
00:08:59,583 --> 00:09:01,958
or, um, other...
215
00:09:02,083 --> 00:09:04,333
objects pushing him
in certain directions.
216
00:09:04,458 --> 00:09:05,667
-So...
-Okay.
217
00:09:05,750 --> 00:09:07,333
Guys. You got a copy?
218
00:09:07,500 --> 00:09:09,208
Go ahead, Thomas. We hear you.
219
00:09:09,333 --> 00:09:11,542
I'm up here on top with Gavin.
220
00:09:11,708 --> 00:09:13,875
The drill bit is
approximately 40 feet
221
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,000
below where we're standing
right now.
222
00:09:16,167 --> 00:09:18,625
There's something that's
been pushing the drill up.
223
00:09:18,708 --> 00:09:20,542
If you remember last year,
224
00:09:20,667 --> 00:09:22,292
there was something
pushing it down.
225
00:09:22,417 --> 00:09:25,708
So he's been trying to turn
that drill and level it out,
226
00:09:25,875 --> 00:09:28,333
and it's just pushing him
up higher and higher.
227
00:09:28,458 --> 00:09:30,208
Similar to what
we experienced last year.
228
00:09:30,375 --> 00:09:32,000
Just other direction.
229
00:09:32,125 --> 00:09:33,875
Maybe we're on top of it
230
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,208
instead of the bottom of it
this time.
231
00:09:36,333 --> 00:09:37,750
That could be.
232
00:09:37,875 --> 00:09:39,833
Think Erik's gonna come up
and, uh, do some
233
00:09:39,917 --> 00:09:41,542
experiments up there with you.
234
00:09:41,667 --> 00:09:43,042
He'll be there in a few minutes.
235
00:09:43,167 --> 00:09:45,042
Copy that.
236
00:09:45,208 --> 00:09:47,167
Be careful.
237
00:09:50,458 --> 00:09:52,833
TRAVIS: When Thomas told us the
drill bit was being pushed up
238
00:09:52,958 --> 00:09:54,500
by something inside the mesa,
239
00:09:54,625 --> 00:09:56,667
Erik and I wondered
if Aaron was just
240
00:09:56,792 --> 00:09:59,250
scraping along the top
of the dome-shaped object.
241
00:09:59,375 --> 00:10:02,917
So Erik took a handheld
spectrum analyzer up to Thomas.
242
00:10:03,042 --> 00:10:06,167
We wanted to see if any strange
energy signals could be detected
243
00:10:06,292 --> 00:10:10,042
when the drill made contact with
the anomaly inside the mesa.
244
00:10:10,958 --> 00:10:13,125
When we try to approach
that point,
245
00:10:13,250 --> 00:10:15,792
our bit is getting pushed down
or it's getting pushed up.
246
00:10:15,917 --> 00:10:17,833
ERIK:
So he's hitting resistance
right now?
247
00:10:17,958 --> 00:10:20,167
You can hear that drill's
hitting something hard.
248
00:10:20,292 --> 00:10:21,167
Oh, yeah.
249
00:10:21,333 --> 00:10:24,125
(clanking)
250
00:10:25,708 --> 00:10:27,833
What's going on, Thomas?
251
00:10:27,917 --> 00:10:31,500
After drilling more
than 270 or 280 feet
252
00:10:31,625 --> 00:10:33,708
of going through sandstone
like butter,
253
00:10:33,875 --> 00:10:36,292
the drill has encountered
a hard object
254
00:10:36,375 --> 00:10:38,667
that it cannot penetrate.
255
00:10:38,750 --> 00:10:41,667
-Wow.
-Well, if that's the case...
256
00:10:41,792 --> 00:10:44,667
um, what I want to do is see
if I can pick up that beacon...
257
00:10:44,833 --> 00:10:46,875
Travis, you hear me?
258
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,500
Copy that, Erik, I got you.
259
00:10:49,625 --> 00:10:51,292
I'm looking
for the beacon signal
260
00:10:51,375 --> 00:10:53,208
at 33 megahertz right now.
261
00:10:53,375 --> 00:10:54,875
Copy that.
262
00:10:55,042 --> 00:10:58,667
Let me go to that signal
and see... where it is.
263
00:10:58,792 --> 00:11:01,000
All right. I think that's him.
264
00:11:01,167 --> 00:11:04,375
See all that activity
right there?
265
00:11:05,375 --> 00:11:07,167
Oh, what is that?
266
00:11:09,583 --> 00:11:11,333
Something's going nuts there.
267
00:11:11,500 --> 00:11:13,042
You see the small peak
in the middle,
268
00:11:13,208 --> 00:11:15,292
that's the beacon
from the drill bit.
269
00:11:15,375 --> 00:11:17,042
-Yeah.
-But these other--
270
00:11:17,208 --> 00:11:19,333
the three peaks
on either side were not there
271
00:11:19,458 --> 00:11:22,625
until the drill bit hit
whatever it can't go through.
272
00:11:25,250 --> 00:11:26,583
Hey, Thomas.
273
00:11:26,708 --> 00:11:29,500
Tell Erik that
when the drill bit hit
274
00:11:29,583 --> 00:11:31,667
whatever you guys
hit up at the top,
275
00:11:31,792 --> 00:11:33,875
that the 33-megahertz signal
276
00:11:34,042 --> 00:11:37,792
coming from the drill bit
amplified and spread out
277
00:11:37,875 --> 00:11:40,917
all around it like something
was rebroadcasting it.
278
00:11:41,042 --> 00:11:44,333
I see the peak at 33 megahertz.
279
00:11:44,500 --> 00:11:46,208
As soon as the drill bit
280
00:11:46,375 --> 00:11:47,750
hit whatever stopped it,
281
00:11:47,875 --> 00:11:50,500
six other peaks appeared
on the spectrum analyzer
282
00:11:50,625 --> 00:11:52,792
around the 33-megahertz peak.
283
00:11:52,917 --> 00:11:54,500
And we've seen this before.
284
00:11:54,583 --> 00:11:56,542
What's going on here?
285
00:11:56,667 --> 00:11:57,917
There's a phenomenon occurring
286
00:11:58,042 --> 00:11:59,667
right now
that we don't understand.
287
00:12:11,500 --> 00:12:13,333
This small peak in the middle--
288
00:12:13,458 --> 00:12:15,667
that's the, that's
the beacon from the drill bit.
289
00:12:15,792 --> 00:12:17,167
KALEB:
Yeah.
290
00:12:17,333 --> 00:12:18,708
TRAVIS:
But these other--
the three peaks
291
00:12:18,875 --> 00:12:20,333
on either side were not there
292
00:12:20,458 --> 00:12:23,167
until the drill bit hit
whatever it can't go through.
293
00:12:23,333 --> 00:12:26,333
Right after Aaron Blunt
informed us that his drill bit
294
00:12:26,500 --> 00:12:29,333
couldn't penetrate what
we believed to be the top side
295
00:12:29,458 --> 00:12:33,333
of the massive dome-shaped
object inside the mesa...
296
00:12:33,458 --> 00:12:36,500
Erik and I noticed that
the 33-megahertz radio signal
297
00:12:36,667 --> 00:12:39,875
from the drill's tracking
beacon was being rebroadcast
298
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,000
into our spectrum analyzer.
299
00:12:42,125 --> 00:12:46,000
The question was, what could
have been rebroadcasting it?
300
00:12:47,208 --> 00:12:48,833
THOMAS:
What are you thinking right now?
301
00:12:48,917 --> 00:12:51,667
I'm thinking metal.
302
00:12:51,792 --> 00:12:54,417
Especially what,
what we just heard from Travis.
303
00:12:54,542 --> 00:12:57,333
He said that when that drill bit
contacted whatever this is
304
00:12:57,458 --> 00:12:59,833
that we can't get through,
all of a sudden
305
00:12:59,958 --> 00:13:02,083
that beacon signal was coming,
blasting out
306
00:13:02,208 --> 00:13:04,750
to his instruments.
Think about what that means.
307
00:13:04,875 --> 00:13:07,958
He said he's hitting
something that's rebroadcasting.
308
00:13:08,042 --> 00:13:10,167
Well, something that behaves
like a large antenna
309
00:13:10,333 --> 00:13:11,667
would do that.
310
00:13:11,792 --> 00:13:14,167
So, when it pushes up
against something metal,
311
00:13:14,292 --> 00:13:17,917
it would actually act like a big
antenna and amplify it out?
312
00:13:18,042 --> 00:13:19,917
Yeah, or a reflector,
I don't know.
313
00:13:20,042 --> 00:13:22,958
Makes me want to pull
the bit back and do it again.
314
00:13:23,083 --> 00:13:24,792
Try it over and over
and see if, in fact,
315
00:13:24,917 --> 00:13:26,458
that same thing happens with,
316
00:13:26,542 --> 00:13:28,292
with the instruments down there
where we're set up.
317
00:13:28,417 --> 00:13:31,208
Well, it sounds like a, uh,
quick experiment.
318
00:13:31,333 --> 00:13:33,708
-That something we could
coordinate with you guys?
-For sure.
319
00:13:33,833 --> 00:13:36,833
-Oh, perfect, perfect.
-See if we can get
Travis on board with that.
320
00:13:36,958 --> 00:13:39,250
THOMAS:
Hey, Travis.
321
00:13:39,375 --> 00:13:41,000
Yeah, go ahead, Thomas.
322
00:13:41,083 --> 00:13:43,292
We would like
to do an experiment
323
00:13:43,417 --> 00:13:47,250
based on what you are
seeing with that amplifying.
324
00:13:47,375 --> 00:13:49,542
We want to try something
where the driller goes
325
00:13:49,667 --> 00:13:53,167
and pushes up against it,
let you see it, then backs off,
326
00:13:53,292 --> 00:13:55,833
then pushes up against it
and then backs off.
327
00:13:55,917 --> 00:13:58,875
And let you look at that
and see what you see.
328
00:13:59,042 --> 00:14:01,458
I like that experiment a lot.
Let's do it.
329
00:14:02,750 --> 00:14:04,250
All righty, so what we're gonna
have you do is
330
00:14:04,375 --> 00:14:05,708
just pull back your bit.
331
00:14:05,875 --> 00:14:07,833
TRAVIS:
Erik's idea was the perfect way
332
00:14:07,917 --> 00:14:10,083
for us to test if whatever
the drill was hitting
333
00:14:10,208 --> 00:14:13,250
inside the mesa
really was altering--
334
00:14:13,375 --> 00:14:16,042
or rebroadcasting--
the 33-megahertz signal.
335
00:14:16,167 --> 00:14:18,125
GAVIN:
Okay, and then
336
00:14:18,208 --> 00:14:20,458
come back into contact
with what you're hitting.
337
00:14:22,667 --> 00:14:23,833
AARON:
Here we go.
338
00:14:25,125 --> 00:14:26,958
GAVIN:
He's going.
339
00:14:27,042 --> 00:14:29,958
He should be coming back into
contact with it here right now.
340
00:14:35,750 --> 00:14:38,292
Boy, it's suddenly
gotten strong as crap.
341
00:14:38,417 --> 00:14:42,000
-KALEB: Hmm.
-Look how strong that is.
342
00:14:42,167 --> 00:14:43,542
All right, so let's back away.
343
00:14:43,667 --> 00:14:45,000
All righty, Aaron,
344
00:14:45,125 --> 00:14:47,000
go ahead
and back it off completely
345
00:14:47,167 --> 00:14:49,833
and then hold there
for a second.
346
00:14:51,250 --> 00:14:53,708
Well, I can tell you, when
they pushed the drill forward,
347
00:14:53,833 --> 00:14:55,625
the peaks went really high,
348
00:14:55,750 --> 00:14:57,500
and now it seems
like they've backed off
349
00:14:57,625 --> 00:14:59,542
and they've dropped really low.
350
00:14:59,667 --> 00:15:02,500
That is exactly what
we're looking for, Travis.
351
00:15:02,583 --> 00:15:05,167
Okay, Travis,
we're going to instruct him
352
00:15:05,250 --> 00:15:06,750
to bring it back into contact.
353
00:15:06,875 --> 00:15:07,833
Watch for that.
354
00:15:07,917 --> 00:15:09,417
Copy that.
355
00:15:10,667 --> 00:15:12,208
-All right, so now look, look.
-See, there it goes.
356
00:15:12,333 --> 00:15:13,875
Look, look, look, look, look!
357
00:15:14,042 --> 00:15:15,500
Holy cow, look at that!
358
00:15:15,625 --> 00:15:17,958
Sure enough,
when Aaron pulled his drill bit
359
00:15:18,042 --> 00:15:20,000
away from the obstruction
in the mesa,
360
00:15:20,167 --> 00:15:22,333
the 33-megahertz signal returned
361
00:15:22,458 --> 00:15:24,417
to normal frequency
on the spectrum analyzer.
362
00:15:24,542 --> 00:15:27,125
But then each time
it made contact
363
00:15:27,208 --> 00:15:29,125
with whatever is inside there,
364
00:15:29,208 --> 00:15:31,708
the signal would be
amplified again.
365
00:15:31,833 --> 00:15:33,208
Look how strong it got.
366
00:15:33,375 --> 00:15:35,750
Man, it just really
started broadcasting.
367
00:15:35,875 --> 00:15:39,125
I have no idea what could be
in there that would do that.
368
00:15:39,208 --> 00:15:41,208
Could it be a response?
369
00:15:42,417 --> 00:15:46,167
ERIK: What could cause the RF
spectrum to suddenly change
370
00:15:46,250 --> 00:15:50,000
as the drill bit encounters this
apparently impenetrable object?
371
00:15:50,125 --> 00:15:52,750
We want to know, is this,
is this aggression?
372
00:15:52,875 --> 00:15:55,000
Uh, is this an attempt
to communicate?
373
00:15:55,125 --> 00:15:57,667
At this point it's speculation,
but it is certainly
374
00:15:57,792 --> 00:15:59,958
very suggestive that
we're dealing with something
375
00:16:00,042 --> 00:16:02,292
that isn't native to that mesa.
376
00:16:02,417 --> 00:16:04,667
-There's something in there.
-KALEB: And we hit it.
377
00:16:04,833 --> 00:16:06,542
And the drill cannot
punch through it.
378
00:16:06,667 --> 00:16:08,375
There is something in there.
379
00:16:08,542 --> 00:16:10,042
(metal squeaking)
380
00:16:11,250 --> 00:16:14,417
Now, you hear that high-pitched
sound it's making?
381
00:16:14,542 --> 00:16:15,625
Yeah.
382
00:16:15,708 --> 00:16:17,167
AARON:
So, we're just hitting
383
00:16:17,292 --> 00:16:19,875
something really, really hard.
384
00:16:20,042 --> 00:16:22,833
I don't know if I'm
getting through this.
385
00:16:22,958 --> 00:16:26,958
See, and we're
at 8,000 pounds of push.
386
00:16:27,042 --> 00:16:29,875
-Yeah.
-Hardly any rotation off of it.
387
00:16:30,042 --> 00:16:32,542
So either my bits broke off
or it's just
388
00:16:32,708 --> 00:16:35,500
spinning on something smooth.
389
00:16:40,042 --> 00:16:42,542
I've just been
sitting here, rotating on it.
390
00:16:42,708 --> 00:16:44,583
-No movement?
-Nope.
391
00:16:44,708 --> 00:16:47,625
And he even put his augers down
so he'd have more push.
392
00:16:47,750 --> 00:16:49,292
So he can't push any harder?
393
00:16:49,375 --> 00:16:51,083
Uh, not right now, nope,
not without breaking something.
394
00:16:51,208 --> 00:16:53,292
-I got to tell Travis.
-Oh, my gosh.
395
00:16:53,417 --> 00:16:56,458
THOMAS: He's officially at the
point he cannot go any further.
396
00:16:56,583 --> 00:16:58,583
Well, that's exciting.
It means there is something
397
00:16:58,708 --> 00:17:02,208
different in there,
and it does match the GPR data.
398
00:17:02,333 --> 00:17:05,625
We need to figure out how
to get to it and see what it is.
399
00:17:05,708 --> 00:17:06,958
Precisely.
400
00:17:07,042 --> 00:17:08,333
We know we're on track.
401
00:17:08,458 --> 00:17:10,833
And what we didn't know
from the GPR data
402
00:17:10,917 --> 00:17:13,000
was how far
south and north it went.
403
00:17:13,125 --> 00:17:15,125
I think we just got our answer.
404
00:17:17,375 --> 00:17:19,708
TRAVIS: Well, I guess, uh, we
need to look at the spoils bin
405
00:17:19,875 --> 00:17:21,333
and see what's in there.
406
00:17:21,458 --> 00:17:23,125
THOMAS:
I agree with you.
407
00:17:23,208 --> 00:17:26,250
I'm completely baffled
as to what it was
408
00:17:26,375 --> 00:17:29,042
that was so hard,
we couldn't drill through it.
409
00:17:29,167 --> 00:17:31,833
I'm eager to get this
drill bit pulled out of the hill
410
00:17:31,917 --> 00:17:34,167
and see what kind of
condition the drill bit's in.
411
00:17:34,292 --> 00:17:38,250
I'm also really eager
to look at this spoils pile
412
00:17:38,375 --> 00:17:40,667
and see, do we have
any metal shavings in there
413
00:17:40,792 --> 00:17:42,375
like we found last year?
414
00:17:44,500 --> 00:17:46,125
I want to hear
from this guy right here.
415
00:17:46,208 --> 00:17:49,458
I mean, you do
this every day, all day.
416
00:17:49,542 --> 00:17:52,500
AARON: It's hitting something
really hard and smooth.
417
00:17:52,625 --> 00:17:55,167
8,000 pounds of push,
and it wasn't budging.
418
00:17:55,333 --> 00:17:57,167
That's a lot of pressure.
419
00:17:57,292 --> 00:17:58,667
What could be hard enough
to be pushing back on that?
420
00:17:58,750 --> 00:18:01,333
I don't know, 'cause
we cut through everything
421
00:18:01,458 --> 00:18:03,542
all the way
up to the top just fine.
422
00:18:03,708 --> 00:18:06,625
I didn't move even a little
bit through it, so...
423
00:18:06,708 --> 00:18:10,125
That's the thing.
What in the world is that?
424
00:18:10,250 --> 00:18:11,500
Well, I want to see
what's in that pit,
425
00:18:11,625 --> 00:18:13,042
'cause you might have got
some chips off of it
426
00:18:13,167 --> 00:18:14,708
that it'd be
nice to see what it is.
427
00:18:14,833 --> 00:18:16,500
I think we ought to get this
sucked out and go look at it.
428
00:18:16,583 --> 00:18:18,542
Yeah, and I'd like to see
the end of the bit, too,
429
00:18:18,708 --> 00:18:21,042
to see if it dulled it
or what happened to it.
430
00:18:21,208 --> 00:18:23,875
(truck beeping)
431
00:18:24,042 --> 00:18:28,042
Once we were done drilling,
we vacuumed all the spoils out
432
00:18:28,208 --> 00:18:30,167
of the pit where the drill bit
entered the mesa
433
00:18:30,250 --> 00:18:32,167
so they could be screened
for possible clues
434
00:18:32,250 --> 00:18:35,083
of what this
dome-shaped object could be.
435
00:18:36,125 --> 00:18:38,458
Meanwhile, Aaron began
retracting the drill bit
436
00:18:38,583 --> 00:18:41,417
so we could see what
kind of damage it incurred
437
00:18:41,542 --> 00:18:43,833
after grinding away on that huge
438
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,167
impenetrable object for so long.
439
00:18:46,292 --> 00:18:48,667
AARON:
Here she comes!
440
00:18:51,333 --> 00:18:53,250
TRAVIS:
Here you go, Thomas.
441
00:18:57,125 --> 00:18:59,167
Getting this cleaned off...
442
00:18:59,292 --> 00:19:03,125
these teeth
are all perfectly intact.
443
00:19:04,333 --> 00:19:06,375
-It's not missing
a single tooth.
-Yeah.
444
00:19:06,542 --> 00:19:10,542
I mean, it, it looks like
it's in perfect condition.
445
00:19:10,667 --> 00:19:13,167
TRAVIS: You'd think, if you were
grinding that against
446
00:19:13,292 --> 00:19:16,667
something for a half hour,
that it would dull it at least.
447
00:19:16,792 --> 00:19:20,375
It should have heated up
and at least wore it down flat.
448
00:19:21,500 --> 00:19:23,708
-TRAVIS: That's crazy.
-AARON: Yeah, that is.
449
00:19:29,792 --> 00:19:32,542
TRAVIS: After all the grinding
did against
450
00:19:32,667 --> 00:19:34,458
the top of the dome-shaped
anomaly inside the mesa,
451
00:19:34,542 --> 00:19:36,708
it showed no sign
of damage at all.
452
00:19:36,833 --> 00:19:39,208
It was like it had been
spinning on an invisible,
453
00:19:39,333 --> 00:19:41,417
frictionless force field.
454
00:19:41,542 --> 00:19:44,167
That's like the stuff
of science fiction.
455
00:19:44,333 --> 00:19:46,208
It made no logical sense.
456
00:19:46,333 --> 00:19:48,583
That's good.
457
00:19:50,833 --> 00:19:52,500
Let's hope we have some.
458
00:19:52,625 --> 00:19:54,667
TRAVIS: So, as the drill team
dumped the materials
459
00:19:54,792 --> 00:19:57,375
that were collected
inside the spoils tank,
460
00:19:57,500 --> 00:19:59,542
we were hoping
that once we sifted them
461
00:19:59,708 --> 00:20:02,417
through a screen,
we'd find evidence that might
462
00:20:02,542 --> 00:20:05,167
tell us what the object
inside the mesa could be.
463
00:20:05,250 --> 00:20:08,500
THOMAS: It doesn't look
anything like what we did
464
00:20:08,583 --> 00:20:10,542
-last year.
-KALEB: No.
465
00:20:10,667 --> 00:20:12,333
ERIK: I'm not seeing
anything like those
466
00:20:12,500 --> 00:20:14,542
large flakes
that we saw last year.
467
00:20:14,708 --> 00:20:16,708
It looks to me like
it's something different.
468
00:20:16,833 --> 00:20:18,750
We're going to have
to do some further analysis
469
00:20:18,875 --> 00:20:22,583
on that material to compare it
or differentiate it
470
00:20:22,708 --> 00:20:25,042
from the material
that we pulled out of the base
471
00:20:25,167 --> 00:20:26,417
of the mesa last year.
472
00:20:26,542 --> 00:20:28,625
I'll scoop
what's left here in a bucket.
473
00:20:28,708 --> 00:20:31,208
If there's any trace of what
we ran into that was so hard,
474
00:20:31,375 --> 00:20:32,500
if we got any of it.
475
00:20:33,542 --> 00:20:35,083
TRAVIS:
The spoils didn't contain any
476
00:20:35,208 --> 00:20:36,875
pieces of metal like last year,
477
00:20:37,042 --> 00:20:39,583
but we'll still send samples
of the muddy material to a lab
478
00:20:39,708 --> 00:20:43,542
for testing just in case they
aren't natural to a rocky mesa.
479
00:20:43,667 --> 00:20:47,000
Hopefully, we can still learn
something about what could be
480
00:20:47,125 --> 00:20:50,833
inside there, especially
since we detected a possible
481
00:20:50,958 --> 00:20:53,917
communication signal when
we were drilling up against it.
482
00:20:54,042 --> 00:20:56,000
This is a head scratcher, right?
483
00:20:56,083 --> 00:20:58,917
There's something in the mesa.
484
00:20:59,042 --> 00:21:01,125
The drill bit won't go through
it, though. That's the thing.
485
00:21:01,250 --> 00:21:02,708
So I don't know,
what in the world
486
00:21:02,833 --> 00:21:04,500
could that be
that you're putting that much
487
00:21:04,625 --> 00:21:06,625
pressure on and you're
not chipping pieces of it off?
488
00:21:06,750 --> 00:21:08,458
-Yeah.
-There's clearly
something there.
489
00:21:08,542 --> 00:21:10,708
We've got three tests now
that tell us
490
00:21:10,833 --> 00:21:12,500
there's something there.
491
00:21:12,625 --> 00:21:14,958
We need to send these
samples out to be tested.
492
00:21:15,042 --> 00:21:17,167
Appreciate you guys doing this.
493
00:21:17,250 --> 00:21:18,833
This was a lot of hard work.
494
00:21:18,958 --> 00:21:20,375
Thanks a lot, guys.
495
00:21:20,542 --> 00:21:22,208
-Yeah, we appreciate the call.
-Well, let's do it.
496
00:21:22,333 --> 00:21:23,667
ERIK:
I agree.
497
00:21:25,708 --> 00:21:27,875
KALEB:
Ready to go?
498
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,208
Yeah, I've got the cameras.
499
00:21:30,333 --> 00:21:31,833
TRAVIS: While I was
taking care of getting
500
00:21:31,958 --> 00:21:34,458
our drilling samples sent off
to the University of Utah
501
00:21:34,542 --> 00:21:37,583
for testing, Erik Bard worked
with Thomas Winterton
502
00:21:37,708 --> 00:21:40,750
and Kaleb Bench to help us
try to get more data
503
00:21:40,875 --> 00:21:44,542
down in the south field where
the purple light and the UAP
504
00:21:44,667 --> 00:21:47,333
appeared during our experiment
a couple of nights ago.
505
00:21:47,417 --> 00:21:49,958
THOMAS: I know we've got
that whole southern portion
506
00:21:50,083 --> 00:21:52,125
covered but not very well
down in the trees, so...
507
00:21:52,250 --> 00:21:53,500
Not in the trees.
508
00:21:53,667 --> 00:21:56,000
This will help supplement
what you've already got.
509
00:21:56,083 --> 00:21:58,292
All right,
I'll keep eyes on you.
510
00:21:58,417 --> 00:21:59,958
All right, sounds good.
511
00:22:02,042 --> 00:22:04,458
ERIK: After our experience
with this mysterious
512
00:22:04,583 --> 00:22:07,500
purple light in the southeast
region of the property,
513
00:22:07,625 --> 00:22:09,667
we've decided
that we need to increase
514
00:22:09,792 --> 00:22:12,000
our surveillance efforts
down there.
515
00:22:12,125 --> 00:22:16,417
I've instructed our team
to install additional cameras.
516
00:22:16,542 --> 00:22:20,917
These are motion-triggered
cameras that should detect
517
00:22:21,042 --> 00:22:24,667
anything that emerges
in the field of view
518
00:22:24,792 --> 00:22:26,917
should we see
any more of these purple lights
519
00:22:27,042 --> 00:22:29,208
or any other light,
for that matter, emerging
520
00:22:29,375 --> 00:22:31,333
in the space over the ranch.
521
00:22:33,250 --> 00:22:36,500
THOMAS: Let's see what we can do
with this tree right here.
522
00:22:45,750 --> 00:22:48,167
So, when that flash happened,
it was hard to tell
523
00:22:48,292 --> 00:22:50,000
whether it was coming from...
524
00:22:50,125 --> 00:22:51,583
up in the tree level or whether,
525
00:22:51,708 --> 00:22:53,208
whether it was
on the ground level.
526
00:22:53,333 --> 00:22:55,083
And even though we could
capture some of this
527
00:22:55,208 --> 00:22:58,458
with our other cameras,
I think having a perspective
528
00:22:58,542 --> 00:23:00,458
right here at the ground,
529
00:23:00,542 --> 00:23:02,333
if we,
if we see that flash again,
530
00:23:02,500 --> 00:23:05,000
we're gonna know whether
it's coming from the trees
531
00:23:05,125 --> 00:23:07,875
or if it really is
happening down on the ground.
532
00:23:09,417 --> 00:23:10,542
The purple light's
something I just
533
00:23:10,708 --> 00:23:12,625
keep reflecting back on
over and over.
534
00:23:12,708 --> 00:23:16,000
What was it doing there on
the south end of the property,
535
00:23:16,125 --> 00:23:19,208
and why was that UAP
we saw observing us?
536
00:23:19,333 --> 00:23:20,833
KALEB:
If I remember right,
537
00:23:20,958 --> 00:23:22,667
you were the only one
that really saw the flash.
538
00:23:22,792 --> 00:23:23,792
Yeah, I was.
539
00:23:23,875 --> 00:23:26,917
Is that why that UAP
was following me?
540
00:23:27,042 --> 00:23:30,542
I'd really like to know
what it was doing above me.
541
00:23:30,708 --> 00:23:33,083
We've been out here for years,
542
00:23:33,208 --> 00:23:35,958
and it just seems like
there's always new questions.
543
00:23:36,792 --> 00:23:38,708
Hey, Erik, do you, uh, copy?
544
00:23:38,833 --> 00:23:40,167
Yeah. I've got you
loud and clear.
545
00:23:40,333 --> 00:23:41,708
THOMAS:
There's an entire
546
00:23:41,833 --> 00:23:43,667
big grove right here
that I don't
547
00:23:43,750 --> 00:23:45,875
think that we have eyes on
from our cameras.
548
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:47,833
So we're thinking about
setting one up here,
549
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,333
facing the west.
550
00:23:49,458 --> 00:23:52,375
That way, if anything shows up,
either tree level
551
00:23:52,542 --> 00:23:55,167
or on the ground,
we'll be able to capture it.
552
00:23:55,333 --> 00:23:56,875
Thomas, that is perfect
553
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,458
because where you're standing,
I cannot see you
554
00:23:59,542 --> 00:24:02,542
from any of the assets up here.
555
00:24:02,667 --> 00:24:04,167
All right, well,
we're gonna have to clean
556
00:24:04,250 --> 00:24:06,667
a couple branches real quick,
and, uh, we'll put it up
557
00:24:06,792 --> 00:24:09,292
and then we'll make contact
with you when we're done.
558
00:24:09,375 --> 00:24:10,958
Copy you.
559
00:24:15,625 --> 00:24:18,333
We've never really
spent a lot of time
560
00:24:18,417 --> 00:24:20,125
investigating on the south side.
561
00:24:22,917 --> 00:24:25,125
So, at this point,
it's an area of interest
562
00:24:25,208 --> 00:24:28,000
that we're definitely
gonna want to follow up on.
563
00:24:28,083 --> 00:24:30,917
I think these trail cams
are gonna be the first step
564
00:24:31,042 --> 00:24:33,583
in fully instrumenting
out the ranch.
565
00:24:37,792 --> 00:24:40,208
I'm excited to see
if we capture anything
566
00:24:40,375 --> 00:24:41,833
on these cameras down there.
567
00:24:41,958 --> 00:24:46,000
Okay. Is it, uh,
all turned on and ready?
568
00:24:57,792 --> 00:24:59,333
Well, that's great.
569
00:24:59,458 --> 00:25:01,833
That gets us
an entire area right here
570
00:25:01,958 --> 00:25:04,000
that we couldn't see
down on the ground
571
00:25:04,125 --> 00:25:05,833
from our cameras, so,
572
00:25:05,958 --> 00:25:08,500
if anything happens here, we're
gonna be able to capture it.
573
00:25:08,625 --> 00:25:11,417
And that light was
right over this area, so...
574
00:25:11,542 --> 00:25:13,000
Yep. Okay.
575
00:25:13,125 --> 00:25:15,917
Well, let's go get
the next one done.
576
00:25:18,958 --> 00:25:22,042
Whoa, what is that
in front of us?
577
00:25:28,458 --> 00:25:31,042
What kind of animal is that?
578
00:25:33,625 --> 00:25:35,542
Looks like a deer.
579
00:25:38,917 --> 00:25:42,917
Yeah, you can tell that one's
been torn apart by something.
580
00:25:45,333 --> 00:25:46,917
I wonder
what the heck killed it.
581
00:25:48,542 --> 00:25:50,667
This is strange.
582
00:25:56,667 --> 00:25:58,833
Not seeing any cat tracks
or bear tracks.
583
00:25:58,958 --> 00:26:02,042
You know, I don't,
I don't know what caused it.
584
00:26:02,208 --> 00:26:04,583
TRAVIS:
Mysterious animal deaths
and mutilations
585
00:26:04,708 --> 00:26:07,333
have been documented
on Skinwalker Ranch for decades.
586
00:26:07,417 --> 00:26:09,583
TRAVIS:
What in the world?
587
00:26:09,708 --> 00:26:12,333
Four years ago,
a healthy young cow
588
00:26:12,500 --> 00:26:14,875
died under very
mysterious circumstances
589
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,625
not far from the south field.
590
00:26:16,750 --> 00:26:18,333
Was that black object the cow?
591
00:26:18,500 --> 00:26:20,833
-ERIK: Yeah.
-TRAVIS: And later,
592
00:26:20,917 --> 00:26:23,792
when we reviewed surveillance
footage, Erik noticed
593
00:26:23,917 --> 00:26:28,083
a UAP in the sky
directly above the dying cow.
594
00:26:28,208 --> 00:26:30,833
TRAVIS:
Oh, whoa, hey, look at that.
595
00:26:30,958 --> 00:26:34,417
THOMAS:
I don't know. This is strange.
596
00:26:34,542 --> 00:26:37,583
Hey, Erik, do you have a copy?
597
00:26:38,875 --> 00:26:40,042
ERIK:
Yeah, go ahead, Thomas.
598
00:26:40,167 --> 00:26:42,042
THOMAS:
Uh, interesting thing.
599
00:26:42,167 --> 00:26:45,917
We got up here to the fence line
and found a dead deer carcass.
600
00:26:46,042 --> 00:26:50,708
ERIK:
Any idea how long
that carcass has been there?
601
00:26:50,833 --> 00:26:52,375
THOMAS:
I think that this animal
602
00:26:52,500 --> 00:26:54,500
has been there for a long time,
603
00:26:54,625 --> 00:26:56,708
but, uh, it's really hard
to tell.
604
00:26:56,875 --> 00:26:57,958
Yeah. Understood.
605
00:26:58,042 --> 00:26:59,833
Okay. Well,
we'll go and get this
606
00:26:59,917 --> 00:27:02,333
camera up, and then
we'll check in with you.
607
00:27:02,417 --> 00:27:04,375
Copy you.
608
00:27:05,542 --> 00:27:07,250
Huh, well, look at this.
609
00:27:07,375 --> 00:27:09,458
We got a...
610
00:27:09,583 --> 00:27:11,208
burn mark.
611
00:27:11,375 --> 00:27:13,833
That's interesting.
612
00:27:13,958 --> 00:27:15,125
Just that one section.
613
00:27:15,250 --> 00:27:16,750
There's nothing
burned around here.
614
00:27:16,875 --> 00:27:19,333
What the heck would have
burned this post?
615
00:27:19,500 --> 00:27:21,583
This plant's untouched.
616
00:27:21,708 --> 00:27:25,583
I mean, there's not
a burned branch on the shrub.
617
00:27:25,708 --> 00:27:28,042
Pretty fresh looking.
618
00:27:29,042 --> 00:27:31,583
And it's in the
weirdest spot, too.
619
00:27:31,708 --> 00:27:33,542
This has me baffled.
620
00:27:33,708 --> 00:27:34,917
KALEB:
We find a burnt post
621
00:27:35,042 --> 00:27:36,667
that's raising some questions.
622
00:27:36,750 --> 00:27:38,667
Just this one spot right here.
623
00:27:38,750 --> 00:27:42,500
And there just so happens
to also be a deceased deer
624
00:27:42,625 --> 00:27:43,833
in this exact same area.
625
00:27:43,958 --> 00:27:45,542
THOMAS:
That's definitely interesting.
626
00:27:45,708 --> 00:27:47,583
KALEB:
Is a dead deer on the ranch
627
00:27:47,708 --> 00:27:50,458
really out of place?
Not necessarily,
628
00:27:50,583 --> 00:27:53,250
but it's hard to say
how this deer died,
629
00:27:53,375 --> 00:27:54,625
so are they connected?
630
00:27:54,708 --> 00:27:55,917
There's some circumstances here
631
00:27:56,042 --> 00:27:57,667
that do raise more questions.
632
00:27:57,750 --> 00:28:00,667
All right, so this is installed.
It's turned on.
633
00:28:00,750 --> 00:28:03,458
So we're good.
634
00:28:03,542 --> 00:28:05,792
Hey, Travis, you got a copy?
635
00:28:08,042 --> 00:28:10,208
We found a dead deer carcass,
and one
636
00:28:10,333 --> 00:28:11,500
fence post along
637
00:28:11,625 --> 00:28:13,458
this, uh, fence line
638
00:28:13,583 --> 00:28:16,417
has got a pretty severe
burn scar on it,
639
00:28:16,542 --> 00:28:18,042
about three feet off the ground.
640
00:28:18,208 --> 00:28:21,375
But the plant around it
doesn't show any signs of burn.
641
00:28:21,500 --> 00:28:23,750
There's no signs
of fire out here.
642
00:28:23,875 --> 00:28:26,333
You probably
ought to come our way.
643
00:28:26,500 --> 00:28:29,375
TRAVIS:
Copy that, Thomas.
See you in a minute.
644
00:28:30,583 --> 00:28:32,792
THOMAS: The fact that we're
seeing this dead deer,
645
00:28:32,917 --> 00:28:34,958
along with this burn mark
down on the south side,
646
00:28:35,042 --> 00:28:37,292
shows we really do need
to get more eyes
647
00:28:37,417 --> 00:28:38,750
down on the south side.
648
00:28:38,875 --> 00:28:40,792
You can see,
there's pieces of it
649
00:28:40,875 --> 00:28:42,500
strewn all over the place.
650
00:28:42,625 --> 00:28:44,208
Yeah.
651
00:28:44,375 --> 00:28:46,500
TRAVIS:
After the cow died
four years ago,
652
00:28:46,667 --> 00:28:49,542
we detected elevated levels
of gamma rays around it.
653
00:28:49,667 --> 00:28:51,708
So I immediately
wanted to scan the area
654
00:28:51,833 --> 00:28:53,000
for any signs of that.
655
00:28:53,125 --> 00:28:54,750
So, you picking up anything?
656
00:28:54,875 --> 00:28:58,000
TRAVIS:
No higher levels of gamma rays
657
00:28:58,083 --> 00:29:00,083
-than usual.
-That's good.
658
00:29:00,208 --> 00:29:03,000
TRAVIS:
Now, obviously this deer
was killed a while ago,
659
00:29:03,125 --> 00:29:06,042
but given the strange UAPs
we had recently seen
660
00:29:06,167 --> 00:29:08,542
right in this area
of the south field,
661
00:29:08,667 --> 00:29:10,500
it was only logical to wonder
662
00:29:10,625 --> 00:29:13,333
if something out of the ordinary
might still be the cause.
663
00:29:13,417 --> 00:29:15,917
Show me this post
you guys were talking about.
664
00:29:16,042 --> 00:29:19,000
Yeah, so this burned post
is just right over here.
665
00:29:22,292 --> 00:29:24,000
So here's that post.
666
00:29:25,625 --> 00:29:26,958
TRAVIS:
It's really burned.
667
00:29:27,083 --> 00:29:30,375
Let me look at it
with this Geiger counter.
668
00:29:31,542 --> 00:29:33,000
Huh.
669
00:29:33,125 --> 00:29:35,875
Nothing out of the ordinary
from radiation,
670
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,875
but that's real interesting,
and there's no other
671
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,875
-signs of fire around here...
-THOMAS: No signs.
672
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,083
...or nothing, right?
673
00:29:42,208 --> 00:29:43,917
None of the trees
have been burned.
674
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,125
TRAVIS:
If you were gonna do that...
675
00:29:47,250 --> 00:29:48,833
I mean, even if we
took a torch...
676
00:29:48,917 --> 00:29:50,750
You'd have to torch that
for a long time.
677
00:29:50,875 --> 00:29:52,708
-That'd be for hours.
-And
678
00:29:52,875 --> 00:29:55,292
none of the rest of it's
touched, right?
679
00:29:55,375 --> 00:29:56,917
So, just that one point.
680
00:29:57,042 --> 00:29:59,042
You know what it looks like?
If something just flew
681
00:29:59,208 --> 00:30:01,583
-and went right through it.
-KALEB: It's very localized
682
00:30:01,708 --> 00:30:03,125
in that one spot.
683
00:30:03,208 --> 00:30:04,833
That looks like,
whatever it was, it was so hot,
684
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,958
it just went (buzzes)
right through it.
685
00:30:07,083 --> 00:30:10,250
That is just weird.
686
00:30:10,375 --> 00:30:12,000
When I saw how burned
687
00:30:12,083 --> 00:30:13,917
that one section
of the post was,
688
00:30:14,042 --> 00:30:15,667
all I could think about was how
689
00:30:15,792 --> 00:30:16,917
the purple light Thomas saw
690
00:30:17,042 --> 00:30:18,583
over here the other night
691
00:30:18,708 --> 00:30:20,958
must have been emitting
a lot of energy.
692
00:30:21,042 --> 00:30:23,625
So, could it
have burned this post?
693
00:30:23,708 --> 00:30:26,458
And could it be connected
to whatever killed the deer?
694
00:30:26,542 --> 00:30:29,917
What's interesting, though,
is, we saw this strange light,
695
00:30:30,042 --> 00:30:33,333
and right here the UAP
was following you,
696
00:30:33,417 --> 00:30:34,750
and it led-led us
697
00:30:34,875 --> 00:30:38,167
to find this burned post
that makes no sense.
698
00:30:38,333 --> 00:30:40,042
THOMAS:
So, the one thing
about this area is,
699
00:30:40,167 --> 00:30:41,958
we've got a lot of cameras
up on the north side,
700
00:30:42,042 --> 00:30:44,167
they're facing this way,
so we've got
701
00:30:44,250 --> 00:30:47,042
great coverage
up in the sky here,
702
00:30:47,167 --> 00:30:48,875
but you see
this tree line right here.
703
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,167
I mean, if we had
a lot of activity,
704
00:30:52,333 --> 00:30:53,917
we wouldn't capture it
on our cameras
705
00:30:54,042 --> 00:30:55,500
because it would be hidden
behind the tree line.
706
00:30:55,667 --> 00:30:57,500
Right here in this sort of
valley between the tree lines,
707
00:30:57,625 --> 00:30:58,667
-right?
-THOMAS: Exactly.
708
00:30:58,792 --> 00:31:00,000
So who knows
what's been taking place
709
00:31:00,125 --> 00:31:01,500
on this side of the ranch.
710
00:31:01,625 --> 00:31:03,583
We-we know we've been
watching the sky a lot,
711
00:31:03,708 --> 00:31:06,833
but we haven't been keeping
as close an eye on the ground.
712
00:31:06,958 --> 00:31:08,667
Well, we've got
this camera here now.
713
00:31:08,792 --> 00:31:10,667
Maybe we'll capture
something with it.
714
00:31:10,792 --> 00:31:14,333
I don't know what else we can
do here. I say we head back.
715
00:31:14,458 --> 00:31:17,250
Let's call a vet out
to look at this deer.
716
00:31:17,375 --> 00:31:19,542
Sounds good.
717
00:31:32,417 --> 00:31:34,333
(car doors closing)
718
00:31:34,458 --> 00:31:36,208
-Hey, Kaleb.
-KALEB: Hey, Bryant.
719
00:31:36,375 --> 00:31:38,167
So, this is Haleigh.
She's one of our local vets.
720
00:31:38,333 --> 00:31:39,625
-Hi, Haleigh.
Nice to meet you.
-Hi.
721
00:31:39,708 --> 00:31:41,083
-I'm Bryant.
-Nice to meet you.
722
00:31:41,208 --> 00:31:42,750
BRYANT: We all know
that there's a history
723
00:31:42,875 --> 00:31:44,333
of cattle mutilation
on this property.
724
00:31:44,458 --> 00:31:46,875
In our investigation here
on Skinwalker Ranch,
725
00:31:47,042 --> 00:31:50,458
animals we have here
have been attacked by something.
726
00:31:50,542 --> 00:31:53,083
We got a deer down on
the south end of the property,
727
00:31:53,208 --> 00:31:55,083
-or the remains of a deer.
-Okay.
728
00:31:55,208 --> 00:31:57,000
BRYANT:
So, given the fact we found
729
00:31:57,125 --> 00:32:01,125
this mysterious burnt post
next to this dead deer,
730
00:32:01,250 --> 00:32:03,917
we decided to bring
Haleigh Lundgreen out.
731
00:32:04,042 --> 00:32:06,667
She's a veterinarian
that is an expert
732
00:32:06,750 --> 00:32:09,292
in looking at animal remains.
733
00:32:09,375 --> 00:32:11,500
Let's head out.
734
00:32:11,583 --> 00:32:13,292
And it just so happens
735
00:32:13,375 --> 00:32:16,250
it's in the same area
where we had this purple light.
736
00:32:16,375 --> 00:32:19,667
And so we want to know,
are they related somehow?
737
00:32:19,833 --> 00:32:24,042
It's really strange, so we'd
like an expert's opinion.
738
00:32:29,917 --> 00:32:32,542
So, pretty much
everything's in this area.
739
00:32:35,083 --> 00:32:36,667
HALEIGH:
It's really scattered, huh?
740
00:32:36,792 --> 00:32:37,833
KALEB:
Yeah.
741
00:32:37,917 --> 00:32:40,042
Well, we'll start with the hide.
742
00:32:45,292 --> 00:32:48,375
There are
some puncture holes here.
743
00:32:50,042 --> 00:32:51,750
KALEB:
Are you thinking
that's from predators?
744
00:32:51,875 --> 00:32:53,458
Or where do you think
that's from?
745
00:32:53,542 --> 00:32:55,292
Uh, you know,
likely from coyotes.
746
00:32:55,417 --> 00:32:57,542
-They're pretty close together.
-Okay.
747
00:32:57,667 --> 00:33:00,208
HALEIGH:
Uh, it wasn't
the cause of death, though.
748
00:33:00,333 --> 00:33:02,000
-KALEB: Hmm.
-I will say that much.
749
00:33:02,167 --> 00:33:04,167
There's no, no bruising
under the skin
750
00:33:04,333 --> 00:33:05,833
which would indicate
cause of death.
751
00:33:05,958 --> 00:33:07,375
KALEB:
Okay.
752
00:33:07,542 --> 00:33:10,667
And so, coyotes likely,
I mean, got after him.
753
00:33:10,792 --> 00:33:12,417
-Got it after it was dead?
-Yep.
754
00:33:12,542 --> 00:33:17,500
But I'm not seeing
any kind of bleeding or trauma
755
00:33:17,625 --> 00:33:20,958
on the hide that would have been
while the deer was alive.
756
00:33:21,042 --> 00:33:22,500
BRYANT:
Interesting.
757
00:33:22,667 --> 00:33:25,000
The puncture marks
look like they had been done
758
00:33:25,083 --> 00:33:27,083
after this animal had died.
759
00:33:27,208 --> 00:33:29,417
What killed this animal?
760
00:33:29,542 --> 00:33:31,417
It wasn't a predator
that killed it.
761
00:33:31,542 --> 00:33:32,792
The question remains,
762
00:33:32,917 --> 00:33:35,375
is it something we need
to worry about?
763
00:33:37,875 --> 00:33:39,542
We have the pelvis here.
764
00:33:39,667 --> 00:33:43,042
The spine's actually really
intact, all things considered.
765
00:33:43,208 --> 00:33:46,250
If a predator had gotten this
when it was alive,
766
00:33:46,375 --> 00:33:48,375
I would have expected more
damage to the spine as a whole.
767
00:33:48,542 --> 00:33:50,583
BRYANT:
Okay. If you had to give me
768
00:33:50,708 --> 00:33:54,167
your forensic expert opinion
as to what happened,
769
00:33:54,333 --> 00:33:56,792
what would you say
took place here?
770
00:33:56,917 --> 00:34:00,042
HALEIGH:
We have a, a young six-month
771
00:34:00,167 --> 00:34:05,000
or under, uh, fawn
that died of something
772
00:34:05,125 --> 00:34:07,583
that we're not sure of and...
773
00:34:07,708 --> 00:34:09,458
-Not predator, though, correct?
-Not predator.
774
00:34:09,542 --> 00:34:12,000
-Okay.
-Died of something
other than a predator.
775
00:34:12,125 --> 00:34:16,125
And then was scavenged on
at least by coyotes,
776
00:34:16,208 --> 00:34:19,667
that we can confirm,
and possibly some other animals.
777
00:34:19,750 --> 00:34:21,042
Okay.
778
00:34:21,208 --> 00:34:22,792
We're gonna have to really keep
a watchful eye
779
00:34:22,917 --> 00:34:24,208
on everything in this area
780
00:34:24,375 --> 00:34:25,833
and try
some different experiments
781
00:34:25,958 --> 00:34:28,833
to maybe see
if we can really find out
782
00:34:28,958 --> 00:34:30,667
what's happening in this place.
783
00:34:30,792 --> 00:34:32,500
We're really grateful
that you'd come out here,
784
00:34:32,625 --> 00:34:34,250
lend your expert opinion,
and give us
785
00:34:34,375 --> 00:34:37,167
-a little bit more insight.
-Sure.
786
00:34:37,292 --> 00:34:38,542
Well, should we get her back?
Get her out of this heat?
787
00:34:38,708 --> 00:34:40,750
-Yeah. That sounds good.
-Okay. Let's do it.
788
00:34:50,125 --> 00:34:52,417
ERIK: Now, this is what
you guys imaged.
789
00:34:52,542 --> 00:34:54,917
TRAVIS: So, that's the pink rock
inside the mesa.
790
00:34:55,042 --> 00:34:57,083
THOMAS:
Yep.
791
00:34:57,208 --> 00:34:59,125
And I am still puzzled by...
792
00:34:59,250 --> 00:35:00,542
I mean, what are we
looking at here?
793
00:35:00,667 --> 00:35:02,333
TRAVIS:
A few days after we had to halt
794
00:35:02,458 --> 00:35:05,000
our drilling operation
inside the mesa,
795
00:35:05,125 --> 00:35:07,000
we got lab results back
for two items
796
00:35:07,167 --> 00:35:09,500
that we sent off
to the geology department
797
00:35:09,625 --> 00:35:11,458
at the University of Utah
for analysis.
798
00:35:11,583 --> 00:35:14,292
First was a photo
of the pink rock
799
00:35:14,375 --> 00:35:17,667
that Dragon and Kaleb captured
with a snake camera one week ago
800
00:35:17,750 --> 00:35:21,000
in a crevice between boulders
near where the dome-shaped
801
00:35:21,167 --> 00:35:22,833
and vertical anomalies
are buried.
802
00:35:22,958 --> 00:35:25,833
And the second was a sample
of the spoils we obtained
803
00:35:25,917 --> 00:35:28,542
while drilling up against the
top of the dome-shaped object.
804
00:35:28,708 --> 00:35:31,167
The geology, geophysics guys
are-are giving us
805
00:35:31,333 --> 00:35:33,417
their best guess
based upon these images.
806
00:35:33,542 --> 00:35:36,417
They have a couple
of opinions on this.
807
00:35:36,542 --> 00:35:38,375
So, uh, one of
the interesting comments
808
00:35:38,542 --> 00:35:40,292
was that the pink coloring
seems to be like
809
00:35:40,417 --> 00:35:42,042
a deposit on the sandstone.
810
00:35:42,167 --> 00:35:45,292
-Really?
-TRAVIS: Meaning
it's not a mineral
811
00:35:45,375 --> 00:35:48,083
that's through and through,
uh, like a chunk of it.
812
00:35:48,208 --> 00:35:49,333
-ERIK: Mm-hmm.
-They think it's a coating.
813
00:35:49,500 --> 00:35:51,000
-ERIK: Right.
-THOMAS: Mm-hmm.
814
00:35:51,167 --> 00:35:52,125
ERIK:
Now, this is interesting.
815
00:35:52,250 --> 00:35:54,500
"Possibly from vapor," right?
816
00:35:54,667 --> 00:35:56,208
Oh, okay.
817
00:35:56,333 --> 00:35:58,458
Okay, so the rest of the comment
was that the color
818
00:35:58,542 --> 00:36:03,167
reminds this individual
of elemental selenium deposits.
819
00:36:03,292 --> 00:36:04,917
TRAVIS:
Yes, it does.
820
00:36:05,042 --> 00:36:07,083
Selenium is, uh,
a semiconductor material.
821
00:36:07,208 --> 00:36:09,333
You find it in almost
every microprocessor chip,
822
00:36:09,500 --> 00:36:12,833
every computer, uh,
you find it in solar panels.
823
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,667
-Really?
-Uh, and, in fact,
824
00:36:14,792 --> 00:36:18,333
if you mix selenium with zinc,
and you get zinc selenide,
825
00:36:18,458 --> 00:36:21,417
it's an optical material
that-that is being used
826
00:36:21,542 --> 00:36:24,708
in military experiments
to bend light around objects
827
00:36:24,875 --> 00:36:28,500
to create, uh, metamaterials
like a cloaking material
828
00:36:28,625 --> 00:36:31,667
on a plane
to make them look invisible.
829
00:36:32,625 --> 00:36:33,583
Oh, wow.
830
00:36:37,292 --> 00:36:39,667
What would produce a vapor
831
00:36:39,792 --> 00:36:42,625
that could leave
a selenium deposit...
832
00:36:42,750 --> 00:36:44,792
-Uh, I'm trying to-- I...
-...on a rock?
833
00:36:44,917 --> 00:36:47,333
Selenium is a solid material
834
00:36:47,458 --> 00:36:49,333
-at room temperature
and pressure.
-ERIK: Uh-huh.
835
00:36:49,458 --> 00:36:53,042
So, you'd have to get it
to whatever its boiling point is
836
00:36:53,167 --> 00:36:55,042
to create a vapor to do that,
837
00:36:55,208 --> 00:36:56,500
and that-that would
have to be hot.
838
00:36:56,625 --> 00:37:00,542
So what would cause that,
I don't know.
839
00:37:00,708 --> 00:37:03,333
And then let's say
maybe the anomaly in the mesa
840
00:37:03,500 --> 00:37:05,208
may have been what caused that.
841
00:37:05,333 --> 00:37:06,708
-BRYANT: Really?
-Yeah.
842
00:37:06,833 --> 00:37:09,083
TRAVIS:
Zinc selenide is a compound
843
00:37:09,208 --> 00:37:10,750
that scientists
and researchers at DARPA,
844
00:37:10,875 --> 00:37:14,750
the Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency,
845
00:37:14,875 --> 00:37:18,042
are currently experimenting with
for possible optical stealth--
846
00:37:18,167 --> 00:37:19,833
in other words,
cloaking applications--
847
00:37:19,958 --> 00:37:24,167
on a number of assets including
soldiers' gear and uniforms,
848
00:37:24,250 --> 00:37:26,000
tanks and even fighter jets.
849
00:37:26,125 --> 00:37:29,000
But it's a pretty futuristic
technology at this point.
850
00:37:29,125 --> 00:37:31,333
So, what the heck would
similar kinds of materials
851
00:37:31,458 --> 00:37:35,500
be doing inside the mesa,
especially since
852
00:37:35,625 --> 00:37:37,833
they appear to have been
artificially placed there?
853
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,667
Is it connected
to the dome-shaped anomaly?
854
00:37:40,792 --> 00:37:43,667
What would cause that,
I don't know.
855
00:37:43,792 --> 00:37:45,333
And I want to go dig
the mesa out...
856
00:37:45,458 --> 00:37:46,708
-BRYANT: I know.
-...and see what's in there.
857
00:37:46,875 --> 00:37:49,333
-I do, too.
-ERIK: I do have another image.
858
00:37:49,500 --> 00:37:51,792
You guys all remember
that stuff that we brought down
859
00:37:51,917 --> 00:37:54,083
from the drill site,
the material from the, uh,
860
00:37:54,208 --> 00:37:55,833
the drill tip itself?
861
00:37:55,958 --> 00:37:57,833
I think you took that off
of the, off of the drill bit...
862
00:37:57,917 --> 00:37:59,667
-Yeah, off-- right off
the tip of the bit.
-BRYANT: Yeah.
863
00:37:59,750 --> 00:38:03,750
I'll take you through
the elemental, uh, analysis
864
00:38:03,875 --> 00:38:05,917
that was done from
the University of Utah
865
00:38:06,042 --> 00:38:08,333
-geology department.
-TRAVIS: There's two lines here,
866
00:38:08,458 --> 00:38:10,000
the drill tip mud
is the bottom one.
867
00:38:10,083 --> 00:38:14,208
BRYANT:
Is there anything that jumps out
as if it doesn't belong?
868
00:38:14,333 --> 00:38:15,708
ERIK:
Europium shows up.
869
00:38:15,875 --> 00:38:18,000
TRAVIS:
Yeah, like when we got drilling
870
00:38:18,167 --> 00:38:20,667
from last year at the mesa,
871
00:38:20,792 --> 00:38:23,000
where we pulled out
metal flakes.
872
00:38:23,167 --> 00:38:25,667
-Wow.
-You've got sodium, magnesium
873
00:38:25,792 --> 00:38:28,833
and aluminum very abundant
in the drill tip mud.
874
00:38:28,958 --> 00:38:34,333
This is, like, a very metallic,
conductive kind of mixture.
875
00:38:34,458 --> 00:38:36,375
Which suggests to me again
876
00:38:36,500 --> 00:38:39,042
that the things
that we got out of the bottom
877
00:38:39,208 --> 00:38:41,500
were part
of a manufactured something.
878
00:38:41,667 --> 00:38:44,917
This mud is leached material,
879
00:38:45,042 --> 00:38:47,750
over time, right at the spot
880
00:38:47,875 --> 00:38:50,125
where the GPR says
there's something there,
881
00:38:50,208 --> 00:38:52,333
and right where the drill bit
couldn't go any further.
882
00:38:52,500 --> 00:38:55,208
So it suggests
that whatever is there,
883
00:38:55,375 --> 00:38:56,583
and whatever
that GPR anomaly is,
884
00:38:56,708 --> 00:38:58,875
is something highly metallic.
885
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,708
-Yeah.
-Jan told us that
886
00:39:01,833 --> 00:39:05,083
it didn't look like
a natural-occurring anomaly.
887
00:39:05,208 --> 00:39:08,833
It looked like it was
some other thing
888
00:39:08,917 --> 00:39:10,833
-that may be buried there
or something.
-Mm-hmm.
889
00:39:10,958 --> 00:39:15,000
So all this suggests there's
a big metal object in the mesa,
890
00:39:15,083 --> 00:39:17,333
so how the heck do we get
in there to-to tell for sure?
891
00:39:17,417 --> 00:39:18,958
ERIK:
How do we feel
892
00:39:19,042 --> 00:39:22,708
about simply drilling
with some portable apparatus
893
00:39:22,833 --> 00:39:26,958
from the top of the mesa down
into that 40-foot-or-so level?
894
00:39:27,042 --> 00:39:28,333
That seems like the s...
895
00:39:28,417 --> 00:39:30,667
the first obvious thing,
right, Erik?
896
00:39:30,833 --> 00:39:32,417
I mean, we could
at least give it a shot.
897
00:39:32,542 --> 00:39:33,833
THOMAS:
Maybe we see if we can
898
00:39:33,958 --> 00:39:35,750
-find us a portable drill...
-BRYANT: Yeah.
899
00:39:35,875 --> 00:39:37,250
-...that we could
carry up there.
-I think-- I'm sure
900
00:39:37,375 --> 00:39:39,000
there's got-- there's got
to be something.
901
00:39:39,125 --> 00:39:40,875
THOMAS:
Okay. Well, I guess
902
00:39:41,042 --> 00:39:43,333
we have our next step, then,
is, uh, focus on trying
903
00:39:43,458 --> 00:39:46,000
to find some way
to drill down from the top.
904
00:39:46,125 --> 00:39:47,208
TRAVIS:
Worth a shot.
905
00:39:47,375 --> 00:39:48,750
-Yeah.
-All right.
906
00:39:48,875 --> 00:39:50,500
Well, I guess we got
our work cut out for us.
907
00:39:50,583 --> 00:39:51,833
-Yep. Let's go...
-And I've got my homework.
908
00:39:51,917 --> 00:39:53,875
...see if we can
find a drill, then,
909
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,167
and how to haul
that thing up the mesa.
910
00:39:59,708 --> 00:40:01,500
ERIK:
We're seeing things that are
911
00:40:01,625 --> 00:40:04,542
very hard for us to explain
inside the mesa.
912
00:40:04,667 --> 00:40:06,458
This part of the ranch continues
913
00:40:06,583 --> 00:40:08,833
to defy our efforts
to characterize it.
914
00:40:08,958 --> 00:40:11,583
At least it's gonna make us
work for the answers we get.
915
00:40:11,708 --> 00:40:14,583
TRAVIS:
You name it,
we've probably heard
916
00:40:14,708 --> 00:40:17,667
a story about
what's inside the mesa here.
917
00:40:17,792 --> 00:40:22,167
Underground alien bases,
UFOs crashed inside there.
918
00:40:22,292 --> 00:40:26,333
If there is an asset, an object,
an artifact inside the mesa
919
00:40:26,458 --> 00:40:28,000
that could be
of great importance,
920
00:40:28,125 --> 00:40:31,375
we need to know what it is,
and I'm fired up to find out.
921
00:40:31,500 --> 00:40:34,375
BRANDON:
Skinwalker Ranch continues to be
922
00:40:34,500 --> 00:40:37,042
the center of gravity
for high strangeness.
923
00:40:37,167 --> 00:40:40,792
I believe that we've seen
more evidence than ever before
924
00:40:40,875 --> 00:40:42,667
of the reality
of the phenomenon,
925
00:40:42,792 --> 00:40:46,167
and we're emboldened to move
forward to get the answers
926
00:40:46,292 --> 00:40:48,000
that we so desperately seek.
927
00:40:48,125 --> 00:40:51,500
As we move forward,
the team is dedicated
928
00:40:51,667 --> 00:40:54,625
and focused on getting
to the bottom of the truth.
929
00:40:59,333 --> 00:41:01,583
I want you all to meet
Jay Stratton.
930
00:41:01,708 --> 00:41:03,167
We're gonna use you today
931
00:41:03,250 --> 00:41:05,292
as part of an experiment.
932
00:41:05,417 --> 00:41:06,833
The word "bait" comes to mind.
933
00:41:06,958 --> 00:41:08,667
MAN:
This is not arson,
this is not chemical,
934
00:41:08,750 --> 00:41:12,167
and this is not lightning.
935
00:41:12,292 --> 00:41:13,458
KALEB:
So what is it, then?
936
00:41:13,583 --> 00:41:14,708
MAN:
It would go back to
937
00:41:14,833 --> 00:41:16,708
what the ranch is named after.
938
00:41:16,833 --> 00:41:18,000
We just found something
939
00:41:18,083 --> 00:41:20,000
that we thought you guys
might want to look at.
940
00:41:20,167 --> 00:41:21,667
TRAVIS:
Whoa.
941
00:41:21,792 --> 00:41:23,875
Middle of the day,
an orb like that showing up?
942
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,000
That's crazy.
943
