1
00:00:01,470 --> 00:00:02,770
[narrator] Previously on
Blind Frog Ranch...
2
00:00:02,770 --> 00:00:04,300
[bleep] Holy [bleep].
3
00:00:04,300 --> 00:00:05,570
What'd you find?
4
00:00:05,570 --> 00:00:07,730
[narrator] The team foundgold ingots nearthe bead site...
5
00:00:07,730 --> 00:00:09,900
Finally get to hold [bleep]
gold in my hands.
6
00:00:09,900 --> 00:00:12,800
...which led them on a huntfor the Lost Roads mine.
7
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,470
One, two, three, four.
8
00:00:15,470 --> 00:00:17,130
There's a path here, Ryan.
9
00:00:17,130 --> 00:00:19,130
Just keep following
that [bleep] to the cave.
10
00:00:19,130 --> 00:00:21,330
Where they uncovereda collapsed mine tunnel
11
00:00:21,330 --> 00:00:23,270
leading back towardBlind Frog Ranch
12
00:00:23,270 --> 00:00:24,770
and the Keyhole Cavern.
13
00:00:24,770 --> 00:00:26,970
-It's going down that way.
-Yeah, to the south.
14
00:00:26,970 --> 00:00:28,730
Right towards Blind Frog.
15
00:00:28,730 --> 00:00:31,070
This is just one of
seven entrances.
16
00:00:31,070 --> 00:00:33,130
These caverns could be
all connected.
17
00:00:33,130 --> 00:00:36,170
[narrator] But newtrespasser activity poseda dangerous threat
18
00:00:36,170 --> 00:00:38,130
-to the ranch.
-What the [bleep]?
19
00:00:38,130 --> 00:00:39,730
Look how big this is, man.
20
00:00:39,730 --> 00:00:41,100
It's a fresh dig.
21
00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:43,400
They're coming in at night
when we're not here.
22
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:44,900
This is dynamite, boys.
23
00:00:44,900 --> 00:00:46,230
They're blowing [bleep] fire.
24
00:00:46,230 --> 00:00:49,400
[narrator] And pushed Duaneto take matters intohis own hands.
25
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,100
This [bleep] ends now.
26
00:00:51,100 --> 00:00:52,770
It ends [bleep] now.
27
00:01:12,330 --> 00:01:15,400
Picking up movement coming
across the creek.
28
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,630
Can you send that drone up?
I'm getting a hit on camera
number six.
29
00:01:18,630 --> 00:01:21,600
-Trail cam.
-Got some trespassers on foot
30
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,200
coming onto the property.
31
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,500
If they're there,
we'll find them.
32
00:01:25,170 --> 00:01:27,430
That's gonna be...
33
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,730
-There we go.
-Oh, wow.
34
00:01:45,170 --> 00:01:46,830
So we're looking forheat signatures.
35
00:01:46,830 --> 00:01:49,270
Yeah, if it's real light,
it's hotter.
36
00:01:49,270 --> 00:01:52,870
[narrator] Determined to puta stop to the poachersdigging on the ranch,
37
00:01:52,870 --> 00:01:54,500
the team conductsa stakeout,
38
00:01:54,500 --> 00:01:57,170
waiting until nightfallto intercept them.
39
00:01:57,170 --> 00:01:58,530
And look for something
moving around.
40
00:01:58,530 --> 00:02:01,400
Chad has launchedan infrared drone to find
41
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,470
the exact location ofthe trespasserson the property.
42
00:02:06,230 --> 00:02:07,430
Right there.
43
00:02:07,430 --> 00:02:08,600
Nope.
44
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,130
Those are deer.
45
00:02:10,130 --> 00:02:13,300
It's camera number six,
so it'll be all the way
up there.
46
00:02:17,870 --> 00:02:19,830
[Chad] Where are
these [bleep]?
47
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,270
-Right there.
-Right there.
48
00:02:23,270 --> 00:02:24,870
[bleep] Charlie, you're right.
49
00:02:24,870 --> 00:02:25,870
There's someone right here.
50
00:02:25,870 --> 00:02:27,370
Down there? How many?
51
00:02:27,370 --> 00:02:29,200
Two. I see two.
52
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:30,170
-Let's go down.
-All right.
53
00:02:30,170 --> 00:02:31,400
We're going down there.
54
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,230
They're on the south side.
Go further south on the creek.
55
00:02:34,230 --> 00:02:35,230
[Charlie] Okay.
56
00:02:37,230 --> 00:02:38,830
I'll turn the lights on
with the drone.
57
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,900
-Yep, look at them
moving right there.
-Yeah.
58
00:02:44,900 --> 00:02:46,600
Little [bleep].
59
00:03:00,770 --> 00:03:01,930
Yeah.
60
00:03:01,930 --> 00:03:05,400
They froze up.
I guess they can hear
the drone, maybe?
61
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,030
Oh, [bleep].
Oh, they're running now.
62
00:03:29,900 --> 00:03:32,100
-Charlie boy, they haul ass.
-Yeah.
63
00:03:32,100 --> 00:03:33,900
[Chad] They must know
we're following them.
64
00:03:33,900 --> 00:03:35,830
They're headed down
towards the creek.
65
00:03:40,300 --> 00:03:41,200
[shouting indistinctly]
66
00:03:43,100 --> 00:03:44,100
-Two males?
-Yes.
67
00:03:44,100 --> 00:03:45,800
One has a backpack.
68
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,400
One's carrying something.
Look at that.
69
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:48,300
He's carrying something.
70
00:03:49,500 --> 00:03:51,000
[all clamoring]
71
00:03:52,570 --> 00:03:53,670
They're splitting up.
72
00:03:55,300 --> 00:03:57,570
Oh, this [bleep]
trying to hide.
73
00:03:57,570 --> 00:03:59,300
I'm gonna switch
to visible spectrum.
74
00:04:02,070 --> 00:04:04,530
[laughs]
75
00:04:05,900 --> 00:04:07,800
[bleep] what's this, man?
76
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,870
Got you [bleep].
77
00:04:13,100 --> 00:04:15,730
The drone did its job.
I think we scared them enough.
78
00:04:15,730 --> 00:04:17,300
They were moving pretty quick.
79
00:04:17,300 --> 00:04:20,400
Charlie, boy,
they're back to BLM landing.
80
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,970
Hopefully, they're gonnathink twice before coming ontothe property again.
81
00:04:26,870 --> 00:04:28,830
Damn, that works pretty good.
82
00:04:28,830 --> 00:04:30,670
Oh, [bleep],
you should see 'em on this.
83
00:04:30,670 --> 00:04:31,670
Really?
84
00:04:31,670 --> 00:04:34,100
Two guys were over there
hiding in these bushes,
85
00:04:34,100 --> 00:04:35,330
and were following
the whole way,
86
00:04:35,330 --> 00:04:37,830
and they were even trying
to hide under trees
and [bleep].
87
00:04:37,830 --> 00:04:40,400
I mean, 400 foot,
you could see exactly
88
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:41,630
the two guys right there.
89
00:04:41,630 --> 00:04:43,630
The heat sensors just,
like, blared out.
90
00:04:43,630 --> 00:04:45,570
There was no way
they could hide with that.
91
00:04:45,570 --> 00:04:46,970
No way at all.
92
00:04:46,970 --> 00:04:48,970
[Chad] Yeah, then we went to
normal camera with the light.
93
00:04:49,630 --> 00:04:51,200
You could see who they were.
94
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,830
[Duane] Really?
You get pictures of it?
95
00:04:52,830 --> 00:04:54,270
[Chad] Yeah,
I got a video of it.
96
00:04:54,270 --> 00:04:57,070
[Duane] Hell, I want
to take that picture with me
to the court.
97
00:04:57,070 --> 00:04:59,030
They were moving pretty quick
when I saw them.
98
00:04:59,030 --> 00:05:00,430
They were all [bleep].
99
00:05:00,430 --> 00:05:01,600
[Duane] Good work, fellas.
100
00:05:19,730 --> 00:05:22,070
[narrator] After obtainingdrone footage of the poachers
101
00:05:22,070 --> 00:05:25,730
illegally trespassing,Duane is in Salt Lake City
102
00:05:25,730 --> 00:05:27,270
for a court appearance.
103
00:05:27,270 --> 00:05:30,370
So right now, we're outside of
my lawyer's office
104
00:05:30,370 --> 00:05:31,870
at Salt Lake City,
105
00:05:31,870 --> 00:05:34,130
bringing the lawsuitagainst these poachers
106
00:05:34,130 --> 00:05:36,200
and their phony mining claims.
107
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,870
And if we win,they won't be able to dig
108
00:05:38,870 --> 00:05:40,530
anywhere in the state of Utah.
109
00:05:43,700 --> 00:05:46,100
I think I've been...
110
00:05:46,100 --> 00:05:48,370
been played for
a long time,
111
00:05:48,370 --> 00:05:52,400
and now we're gonna getto see the truth coming out,
112
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,370
and so,we're ready to go to war.
113
00:05:54,370 --> 00:05:56,100
And I don't like coming to
the big city
114
00:05:56,100 --> 00:05:57,570
to get your [bleep]
figured out,
115
00:05:57,570 --> 00:05:58,670
but, you know, we're here,
116
00:05:58,670 --> 00:06:00,600
and I hope I dress
good enough.
117
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:03,830
Let's do this, Bill.
118
00:06:31,330 --> 00:06:33,100
I don't want to celebrate
too much,
119
00:06:33,100 --> 00:06:37,230
but, you know, that went
way better than I expected.
120
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,530
These poachers,
they've been slithering around
121
00:06:41,530 --> 00:06:45,230
on our land,
and they don't get
to do that anymore.
122
00:06:45,230 --> 00:06:47,570
[narrator] Though cameraswere not allowedin the building,
123
00:06:47,570 --> 00:06:49,400
the court determinedthat the poachers
124
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,770
had been digging onDuane's land illegally
125
00:06:51,770 --> 00:06:55,100
and were found guilty ofusing a false mining claim.
126
00:06:56,130 --> 00:06:59,230
Not only must they vacatethe area immediately,
127
00:06:59,230 --> 00:07:03,670
the impendingsentencing hearingcould lead to jail time.
128
00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:07,200
They'll do anything
to kind of see if you drop
129
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,530
your guard and maybe just
give up and then they win,
130
00:07:10,530 --> 00:07:14,500
but they don't get to
do that this time.
131
00:07:14,500 --> 00:07:16,830
These people are trying
to take over the land
132
00:07:16,830 --> 00:07:18,130
and get the gold.
133
00:07:37,300 --> 00:07:39,170
[Charlie] Got a lot of
cleanup to do.
134
00:07:39,170 --> 00:07:42,070
There's a huge hole
they've dug right here.
135
00:07:43,230 --> 00:07:44,670
More back over there.
136
00:07:44,670 --> 00:07:47,370
[narrator] Now thatthe poachers are barredfrom the ranch,
137
00:07:47,370 --> 00:07:49,770
Charlie has to work on closingthe dig sites
138
00:07:49,770 --> 00:07:52,500
and removingwhat was left behind.
139
00:07:52,500 --> 00:07:58,430
Look at all this crap,
this bogus-ass fake [bleep].
140
00:07:58,430 --> 00:08:01,570
That must have been
the shoring that they were
gonna be using.
141
00:08:03,230 --> 00:08:05,430
Trespassing sign.
We didn't put that up.
142
00:08:05,430 --> 00:08:08,670
That's something they put up,
like they own this place.
143
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,630
This goddamn mess
is all it is.
144
00:08:13,470 --> 00:08:14,730
You know, this is [bleep].
145
00:08:18,270 --> 00:08:21,970
And this is how
they were sneaking on,
was right here.
146
00:08:21,970 --> 00:08:24,670
You can get side-by-sides
down here,
147
00:08:24,670 --> 00:08:27,030
four-wheelers, which they had.
148
00:08:27,030 --> 00:08:30,300
With all this brush down here,
they can actually work
149
00:08:30,300 --> 00:08:31,970
down here and be unseen.
150
00:08:31,970 --> 00:08:33,570
Nobody even know
they're even here.
151
00:08:34,570 --> 00:08:36,830
They've got caution tape
down here.
152
00:08:49,930 --> 00:08:50,870
That's fresh.
153
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,030
It almost looks like...
154
00:09:16,830 --> 00:09:19,470
So this is kind of flattened
out a little bit.
155
00:09:19,470 --> 00:09:22,500
Looks like something's been
coming through here.
156
00:09:22,500 --> 00:09:23,800
I don't know what it is,
but...
157
00:09:25,170 --> 00:09:28,330
I'm looking for tracks
just to see if I can get
158
00:09:28,330 --> 00:09:31,430
an idea of what it is,
but I don't see any tracks.
159
00:09:40,530 --> 00:09:41,800
What the hell is that?
160
00:09:44,330 --> 00:09:45,470
[bleep]
161
00:09:47,500 --> 00:09:48,800
It's a big-ass deer.
162
00:10:09,630 --> 00:10:13,600
This thing has not been shot,
so it's not done by a hunter.
163
00:10:14,370 --> 00:10:15,770
This neck is snapped.
164
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,200
Snapped right there.
165
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,070
It's still soft.
166
00:10:27,870 --> 00:10:29,300
That's weird right there.
167
00:10:29,300 --> 00:10:33,670
I've never seen blue skin
like that before.
168
00:10:33,670 --> 00:10:36,000
I've been tracking and hunting
my entire life,
169
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,130
and I've never seen
skin color like that.
170
00:10:41,500 --> 00:10:44,430
Something that killed this,
I don't know
what the hell it is.
171
00:10:49,300 --> 00:10:51,430
Got like a wet slime on it.
172
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,570
Got a broken neck.
What the hell is this?
173
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:04,530
What the [bleep]?
174
00:11:10,570 --> 00:11:11,970
It's a [bleep] tooth.
175
00:11:12,930 --> 00:11:15,870
Whatever snapped
the neck when it bit into it,
176
00:11:15,870 --> 00:11:17,830
it lost a tooth.
177
00:11:17,830 --> 00:11:21,370
That's not a bear's tooth.
That's not a mountain lion's
tooth.
178
00:11:21,370 --> 00:11:23,330
I don't know
what the hell that is.
179
00:11:23,330 --> 00:11:26,770
You know, I've seen a lot of
mountain lion kills and, uh...
180
00:11:28,270 --> 00:11:30,400
this ain't no mountain lion,
I can tell you that.
181
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,970
It's something different.
It's not a bear.
182
00:11:32,970 --> 00:11:36,600
There's no more bite marks
anywhere that I can see.
183
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,230
There are no claw marks,
no tracks, no bullet holes,
184
00:11:40,230 --> 00:11:42,030
so I can't tell you
what it is.
185
00:11:42,030 --> 00:11:43,670
I have no answers for it.
186
00:11:45,100 --> 00:11:46,600
Holy [bleep].
Look at this.
187
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,370
There's a drag mark
right in through there.
188
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:51,530
Seeing drug down here?
189
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,830
Look at these trail marks.
Ponds right over here.
190
00:11:57,430 --> 00:11:59,570
Beaver ponds are down here.
191
00:11:59,570 --> 00:12:01,670
And this thing comes right off
the road right here.
192
00:12:02,300 --> 00:12:03,830
[bleep]
193
00:12:03,830 --> 00:12:05,270
Something got drug
through here,
194
00:12:05,270 --> 00:12:07,500
but there is no footprints
whatsoever.
195
00:12:07,500 --> 00:12:12,170
I got to get up to guys
and let them know
what I found on this.
196
00:12:12,170 --> 00:12:14,600
Because that's a risk,
having an unknown predator
197
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:15,500
on the property.
198
00:12:17,870 --> 00:12:19,670
None of this makes
a lick of sense.
199
00:12:37,670 --> 00:12:39,800
-Hey.
-I found something
y'all gotta see.
200
00:12:42,300 --> 00:12:45,200
I found a fresh deer kill.
201
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,100
-His neck was broken.
-[bleep]
202
00:12:47,100 --> 00:12:48,230
His tooth was in his neck.
203
00:12:48,230 --> 00:12:49,370
What's that?
204
00:12:49,370 --> 00:12:51,930
That's like a [bleep] fang
of some kind.
205
00:12:51,930 --> 00:12:53,570
That's like a fang, yeah.
206
00:12:53,570 --> 00:12:55,130
You ever seen
a tooth like this?
207
00:12:58,130 --> 00:13:02,370
I could see the very end of
that tooth inside
the deer neck,
208
00:13:02,370 --> 00:13:03,730
so I dug it out.
209
00:13:03,730 --> 00:13:05,400
-Damn.
-But the neck
was just snapped.
210
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,870
There was no other marks
anywhere on it.
211
00:13:10,430 --> 00:13:12,570
The skin on the deer
was blue,
212
00:13:12,570 --> 00:13:16,630
like it had been suffocated
or strangled or something.
213
00:13:16,630 --> 00:13:18,970
How old did
the deer carcass look?
214
00:13:18,970 --> 00:13:21,570
-Was it a fresh kill?
-A fresh kill. Yeah.
215
00:13:21,570 --> 00:13:23,300
So we have something
roaming around out here
that...
216
00:13:23,300 --> 00:13:26,770
I think it's coming down
in here into the beaver ponds
to feed.
217
00:13:26,770 --> 00:13:28,900
-The deer are up and down
this creek.
-Yeah.
218
00:13:30,070 --> 00:13:33,030
This'll sound weird,
but I don't think that's
a mammal tooth.
219
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:43,100
That looks like a fang to be
some sort of large snake.
220
00:13:43,100 --> 00:13:45,670
Well, how big a snake
could kill a [bleep] deer,
though?
221
00:13:45,670 --> 00:13:46,830
Damn.
222
00:13:46,830 --> 00:13:49,930
[narrator] Of the 31 knownspecies of snakes in Utah,
223
00:13:49,930 --> 00:13:53,400
none are known to exceedsix feet in length.
224
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,070
While the native kingsnakeis one of the strongest
225
00:13:56,070 --> 00:13:57,770
constrictors on the planet,
226
00:13:57,770 --> 00:14:00,330
their size preventsthem from being capable
227
00:14:00,330 --> 00:14:02,630
of killing preyas large as deer.
228
00:14:14,030 --> 00:14:15,500
[sighs]
229
00:14:18,430 --> 00:14:19,770
-Hey, gents.
-What's going on?
230
00:14:19,770 --> 00:14:20,700
Hey.
231
00:14:20,700 --> 00:14:23,000
-How'd it go?
-Good, good.
232
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,730
They got their [bleep]
shut down.
233
00:14:24,730 --> 00:14:26,870
You know, the lawyer's
got a cease and desist
234
00:14:26,870 --> 00:14:29,070
on these poachers,
so it's all good.
235
00:14:29,070 --> 00:14:31,200
I'm telling you,
there's some lying sumbitches,
236
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,100
so we're going to wrap this
whole thing around their neck.
237
00:14:34,100 --> 00:14:36,200
-Hell, yeah.
-We needed that.
238
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:37,530
That doesn't solve
all the problems,
239
00:14:37,530 --> 00:14:40,000
but it helps us
to move forward, so.
240
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,700
Well, we got another problem.
241
00:14:41,700 --> 00:14:42,600
What's that?
242
00:14:43,230 --> 00:14:46,130
I found a fresh kill, deer.
243
00:14:46,530 --> 00:14:47,670
Neck was broken.
244
00:14:49,170 --> 00:14:50,970
I dug that out of the neck
of the deer.
245
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,730
-No [bleep].
-It's a fang.
246
00:14:57,070 --> 00:15:00,100
It could have been the [bleep]
tooth of that snake.
247
00:15:00,100 --> 00:15:02,800
The one that Charlie took
a picture of by the pond.
248
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,330
[narrator] A few days ago,while patrolling the property,
249
00:15:05,330 --> 00:15:09,370
Charlie photographedsome sort of animalin Beaver Creek Pond.
250
00:15:10,430 --> 00:15:12,130
You know, I was patrolling
the property
251
00:15:12,130 --> 00:15:14,200
this morning,
right down there,
252
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,000
and these weeds sounded like
water movement,
253
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:21,370
and I was
able to grab my phone,
and this is what I got.
254
00:15:21,370 --> 00:15:22,630
[Chad]
What the hell is that?
255
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,930
But that's a hugeserpent-looking thing,
256
00:15:26,930 --> 00:15:31,730
but it's got scales like
an alligator would
all along its back,
257
00:15:31,730 --> 00:15:35,430
but that's only about 12
to 13 feet sticking out
of the water.
258
00:15:35,430 --> 00:15:37,900
The other half is diving
straight down.
259
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,900
-Mmm.
-Same area,
right down the creek there.
260
00:15:42,900 --> 00:15:46,100
I found drag marks, too,
coming down the hill.
261
00:15:46,100 --> 00:15:47,800
Holy [bleep].
262
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,830
-That's getting wild as hell.
-Yeah.
263
00:15:49,830 --> 00:15:52,430
The drag marks, that wide.
264
00:15:52,430 --> 00:15:54,570
-Well, we've seen it before.
-Yeah.
265
00:15:54,570 --> 00:15:57,370
It looks likethey were pulling somethinghuge out of the pond.
266
00:16:01,730 --> 00:16:03,830
Right here. Look at
this [bleep], Charlie.
Right here.
267
00:16:03,830 --> 00:16:05,200
Right to the beaver ponds.
268
00:16:06,930 --> 00:16:10,230
-I always
wondered what it was.
-That's a big snake.
269
00:16:10,230 --> 00:16:13,100
It's bad as hell.
That's worse than
[bleep] poachers.
270
00:16:13,100 --> 00:16:15,000
It's out there killing
large deer.
271
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,870
That was a 200-pound deer.
It was a big deer.
272
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,600
And it just snapped
its neck like nothing.
273
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,800
-Didn't he saw it or anything?
-Nothing, no.
274
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,070
It's down in there somewhere.
275
00:16:27,070 --> 00:16:29,930
Safety-wise, I'm gonna say
let's stay out of there.
276
00:16:29,930 --> 00:16:33,470
I know a guy
that could damn sure
figure this deal out.
277
00:16:33,470 --> 00:16:35,930
Emery Smith,
he's on the board of Stanford.
278
00:16:35,930 --> 00:16:38,800
He can get some DNA
off that deal.
279
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,630
Hell, he can tell us
what the [bleep] it is.
280
00:16:43,370 --> 00:16:45,130
You know, we'll bring in Emery
to find out
281
00:16:45,130 --> 00:16:46,630
what the hell is going
on here,
282
00:16:46,630 --> 00:16:49,470
but right now, you know,
we got to get back
to drilling.
283
00:16:49,470 --> 00:16:50,830
-Yeah.
-We got to.
284
00:16:50,830 --> 00:16:53,830
We should probably head
back up to Mosby's sink
285
00:16:53,830 --> 00:16:54,970
and see if it's dry.
286
00:16:54,970 --> 00:16:57,900
If it's dry up there,
it's going to be dry
down here.
287
00:16:57,900 --> 00:16:58,770
Yeah.
288
00:16:58,770 --> 00:16:59,900
Why don't you and I
grab Skinner,
289
00:16:59,900 --> 00:17:02,030
some packs, and hike up there,
290
00:17:02,030 --> 00:17:03,830
and hopefully we can
get back to drilling.
291
00:17:04,770 --> 00:17:05,870
Sounds good.
Let's go get him.
292
00:17:05,870 --> 00:17:06,870
Yeah.
293
00:17:27,870 --> 00:17:30,700
[Chad] What the [bleep]?
What kind of hair is that?
294
00:17:31,700 --> 00:17:32,930
Bigfoot hair.
295
00:17:34,330 --> 00:17:36,070
Oh, he's rubbing in the tree,
maybe?
296
00:17:36,070 --> 00:17:38,730
Uh, maybe it's just deer shed.
297
00:17:38,730 --> 00:17:42,730
[narrator] Chad, James,and Ryan are on their wayto Mosby Sink,
298
00:17:42,730 --> 00:17:44,930
a giant hole inthe Uinta Mountains
299
00:17:44,930 --> 00:17:47,970
that channels snowmeltto Blind Frog Ranch.
300
00:17:47,970 --> 00:17:49,130
That's a lot of water.
301
00:17:49,130 --> 00:17:51,930
Recent flooding onthe ranch was fed underground
302
00:17:51,930 --> 00:17:53,430
by water from the sink.
303
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,970
So Ryan, James,
and I are going to check out
304
00:17:56,970 --> 00:17:58,970
the water flow,
see if it's gone down any,
305
00:17:58,970 --> 00:18:02,570
and see if we still have
a huge flow going under
the ranch.
306
00:18:02,570 --> 00:18:05,800
If the water's gone down,
we can drill the energy
zone then.
307
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,100
-Oh, yeah,
right through there, isn't it?
-Yeah.
308
00:18:08,100 --> 00:18:09,230
I don't hear anything.
309
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:12,500
Look at this.
310
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,700
Before, you could hear
the water rushing from
500 feet away.
311
00:18:20,830 --> 00:18:22,830
There's no creek at all
so far.
312
00:18:22,830 --> 00:18:26,330
The water volume has got to
have decreased considerably.
313
00:18:33,930 --> 00:18:36,130
I'll just see if I can
get down there.
314
00:18:36,130 --> 00:18:39,200
It's tight,
but maybe I can
squeeze through.
315
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,170
Yeah, grab that little camera
for me.
316
00:18:44,170 --> 00:18:45,270
Yeah, I'll go grab it.
317
00:18:46,530 --> 00:18:48,430
Just enough room for a human.
318
00:18:49,270 --> 00:18:50,570
Does it still look dry?
319
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,430
Uh... Oh.
320
00:18:54,430 --> 00:18:56,900
Oh, yeah,
it looks completely dry.
321
00:18:56,900 --> 00:18:59,170
I don't hear any water
running. Nothing.
322
00:19:01,370 --> 00:19:02,700
Yeah, well, this is great,
though,
323
00:19:02,700 --> 00:19:05,100
so this means underneath
the ranch is dried up, too.
324
00:19:05,100 --> 00:19:06,800
Yeah.
Do you need help?
325
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,270
-Uh...
-Come down and grab
that [bleep].
326
00:19:11,300 --> 00:19:13,000
All right, let's get the hell
out of here.
327
00:19:17,900 --> 00:19:19,030
That's great.
328
00:19:19,030 --> 00:19:21,970
All that water in Mosby's sink
affects the water level
329
00:19:21,970 --> 00:19:24,300
that's underneath
the Blind Frog Ranch.
330
00:19:24,300 --> 00:19:27,500
And fortunately,
there is no more water
in Mosby's sink.
331
00:19:27,500 --> 00:19:30,500
It looks like we're good
to go on drilling again
332
00:19:30,500 --> 00:19:31,870
at the energy zone.
333
00:19:31,870 --> 00:19:34,130
All right,
let's drill [bleep].
334
00:19:34,130 --> 00:19:36,500
- [narrator] Coming up...
-We're gonna take
the rat hole rig
335
00:19:36,500 --> 00:19:38,000
right down to this ravine.
336
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,330
If he slips, it's dangerous.
337
00:19:40,330 --> 00:19:41,300
Here we go.
338
00:19:41,300 --> 00:19:43,300
That'll make these [bleep]
pucker up.
339
00:19:43,300 --> 00:19:45,500
Tell him to take that
to himself low idle.
340
00:19:45,500 --> 00:19:46,870
He can drill faster than that.
341
00:19:46,870 --> 00:19:49,000
Yo, Oscar, can you speed
that thing up?
342
00:19:50,730 --> 00:19:51,970
Yeah, boy!
343
00:19:51,970 --> 00:19:54,000
We're starting to seesome storm clouds.
344
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,230
We got a [bleep]
100-foot lightning rod
sticking up.
345
00:19:57,930 --> 00:19:59,670
[thunderclap]
346
00:20:06,630 --> 00:20:07,530
Emery!
347
00:20:07,970 --> 00:20:09,230
Duane!
348
00:20:09,230 --> 00:20:10,430
Charlie, how are you guys
doing?
349
00:20:10,430 --> 00:20:11,730
-Doing great. Good seeing you.
-Good.
350
00:20:11,730 --> 00:20:12,730
Oh, my gosh.
351
00:20:12,730 --> 00:20:14,270
I'm glad you called me.
352
00:20:14,270 --> 00:20:18,030
[narrator] Dwayne hasasked Emery Smith,a biomedical investigator
353
00:20:18,030 --> 00:20:20,900
and a former scientistfor the U.S. Air Force,
354
00:20:20,900 --> 00:20:23,670
to examine the deer carcassCharlie discovered.
355
00:20:24,730 --> 00:20:27,270
I want you to know
we don't have a clue
what's going on.
356
00:20:27,270 --> 00:20:30,400
My name is Emery Smith.
I'm a clinical specialist
in regenerative medicine,
357
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,330
exobiology and hematology.
358
00:20:32,330 --> 00:20:36,170
Now, I've been classifying
different types
of genetic anomalies.
359
00:20:36,170 --> 00:20:41,200
For 30 years,
I've identified over 3,000
different types of species.
360
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:42,430
But you said
there was a carcass.
361
00:20:42,430 --> 00:20:45,100
-It's about a 200 pound doe.
-All right.
362
00:20:45,100 --> 00:20:48,570
And... [clears throat]
whatever this thing was,
363
00:20:48,570 --> 00:20:51,370
it just snapped its neck.
364
00:20:51,370 --> 00:20:53,530
There's no other bite marks
on it anywhere.
365
00:20:53,530 --> 00:20:55,200
[Emery] Yeah, I'd like to take
a look at that.
366
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,300
It's a big boa
or whatever it is...
367
00:20:57,300 --> 00:21:00,330
And it's coming out
of the pond
and it left tracks.
368
00:21:00,330 --> 00:21:02,470
-Why don't you guys
show me this body?
-[Duane] Let's go.
369
00:21:02,470 --> 00:21:03,600
-All right.
-[Charlie] Let's do it.
370
00:21:09,270 --> 00:21:10,800
There it is, right there.
371
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:13,430
[Emery] Well, I'll be...
372
00:21:13,430 --> 00:21:15,270
There's no bite marks
on it anywhere,
373
00:21:15,270 --> 00:21:18,130
-but that neck is snapped
right into half.
-Yeah.
374
00:21:18,130 --> 00:21:19,900
-Yeah, it's twisted
all the way around.
-[Charlie] Yeah.
375
00:21:19,900 --> 00:21:21,870
-And there was this slime...
-[Emery] Uh-huh.
376
00:21:21,870 --> 00:21:24,670
-...like a slime all over it.
-Yeah?
377
00:21:24,670 --> 00:21:28,130
And I felt like a...
a lump in the neck.
378
00:21:28,130 --> 00:21:30,130
That's where I dug
that tooth out of it.
379
00:21:30,130 --> 00:21:32,000
Well, I think, I should
definitely take that
380
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,800
-with a sample.
-Looks more like a fang
than anything.
381
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,930
[Emery] Well, a fang would've
had a channel for venom.
382
00:21:37,930 --> 00:21:40,230
That looks like
a conical tooth to me.
383
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,970
Multiple spinal fractures.
384
00:21:48,570 --> 00:21:50,930
-It's green.
-[Charlie] Yeah.
385
00:21:50,930 --> 00:21:53,370
And what would cause it
to turn green like that?
386
00:21:53,370 --> 00:21:55,370
[Emery] This is plasma.
387
00:21:55,370 --> 00:21:59,430
Without blood cells,
you get this weird
plasma green effect.
388
00:22:00,370 --> 00:22:02,500
Somehow the blood separated.
389
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:04,870
That's not normal.
390
00:22:05,870 --> 00:22:07,830
How long has it been, Charlie?
391
00:22:07,830 --> 00:22:09,600
It had to have
happened last night
392
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,930
'cause the body
was actually still warm.
393
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,730
Hmm. This just happened
24 hours ago.
394
00:22:16,730 --> 00:22:21,400
There's definitely something
accelerating the decomposition
of this animal.
395
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:22,800
That's not how
they deteriorate. [chuckles]
396
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,230
No, I've never seen
anything like it before.
397
00:22:25,230 --> 00:22:28,830
Something is making this
rot a lot quicker.
398
00:22:32,370 --> 00:22:34,230
You know, the bite
was just for leverage.
399
00:22:34,230 --> 00:22:37,030
Kinda, like, wrap itself,
you know, around the neck.
400
00:22:37,730 --> 00:22:39,900
Obviously suffocated
the animal.
401
00:22:39,900 --> 00:22:42,100
And it most likely died
from the pressure
402
00:22:42,100 --> 00:22:43,800
to its circulatory system.
403
00:22:47,830 --> 00:22:50,970
And there's drag marks
coming down the cliff, uh,
404
00:22:50,970 --> 00:22:52,630
near the hill over there,
405
00:22:52,630 --> 00:22:54,600
that are about this wide.
406
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:58,470
[clears throat]
And apparently, it just
came through here.
407
00:22:58,470 --> 00:23:00,770
This is just something
very odd I haven't
seen before.
408
00:23:00,770 --> 00:23:02,730
And I... I've seen it all.
409
00:23:03,670 --> 00:23:05,170
Let's go check out this pond.
410
00:23:05,170 --> 00:23:06,430
Yeah, it's a drive
back up that way.
411
00:23:06,430 --> 00:23:07,930
-[Emery] All right.
Excellent. I'll follow you.
-Okay.
412
00:23:07,930 --> 00:23:09,430
[Duane] Oh, man.
It's getting wild.
413
00:23:09,430 --> 00:23:10,530
[Emery] Yeah.
414
00:23:25,170 --> 00:23:26,670
[James] Careful right here.
415
00:23:26,670 --> 00:23:29,030
This is kinda lost away.
416
00:23:34,770 --> 00:23:38,430
Yeah, but what you guys
are going to see up here
is just... it's insane.
417
00:23:40,470 --> 00:23:41,800
[Chad] How much longer
we got, James?
418
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,570
[James] Just like
five more minutes.
419
00:23:43,570 --> 00:23:46,030
[Chad] Man,
it was five minutes
20 minutes ago, bro.
420
00:23:46,030 --> 00:23:47,700
[James chuckles] Five minutes.
421
00:23:47,700 --> 00:23:50,000
[Chad] Five more minutes.
422
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,100
[narrator] On their way backfrom Mosby Sink,
423
00:23:52,100 --> 00:23:55,670
James has broughtChad and Ryanto ancient petroglyphs
424
00:23:55,670 --> 00:23:57,870
near Blind Frog Ranch.
425
00:23:57,870 --> 00:24:00,330
Estimated to be1,000 years old,
426
00:24:00,330 --> 00:24:04,500
these rock drawingswere made by the enigmaticFreemont culture
427
00:24:04,500 --> 00:24:07,900
who lived here as earlyas 950 A.D.
428
00:24:13,500 --> 00:24:15,530
[James] This is it. [pants]
429
00:24:15,530 --> 00:24:17,400
This is what I wanted
to show you guys.
430
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,830
[Chad] Oh, you're not kidding.
Holy [bleep].
431
00:24:19,830 --> 00:24:22,830
Oh, wow, that's so cool, man.
432
00:24:22,830 --> 00:24:26,130
[James] See right here?
We have these
anthropomorphic figures.
433
00:24:26,130 --> 00:24:28,830
Those look like some type
of deer or antelope.
434
00:24:28,830 --> 00:24:30,330
-[Ryan] Oh, yeah.
-[Chad] I see it.
435
00:24:30,330 --> 00:24:33,570
Do you see over here,
we have that squiggly line?
436
00:24:33,570 --> 00:24:35,130
It looks like a snake.
437
00:24:35,670 --> 00:24:36,900
[James] Yeah, exactly.
438
00:24:38,430 --> 00:24:42,200
[narrator] The petroglyphsdepict animals that werecommon here at the time,
439
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,300
including antelope and deer.
440
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,670
But they also depictmysterious figures
441
00:24:47,670 --> 00:24:49,700
whose meaningsare not so clear,
442
00:24:49,700 --> 00:24:52,500
including a giant serpent.
443
00:24:52,500 --> 00:24:56,100
Some believe that such snakesmay have been commonat the time,
444
00:24:56,100 --> 00:24:58,670
only to have disappearedin the many years
445
00:24:58,670 --> 00:25:00,630
since this petroglyphwas created.
446
00:25:01,770 --> 00:25:03,430
[Chad] I mean, all these
animals were creatures
447
00:25:03,430 --> 00:25:05,300
that they
were seeing back then.
448
00:25:05,300 --> 00:25:07,070
So what does this mean
for the snake?
449
00:25:08,330 --> 00:25:10,030
You know, who knows.
450
00:25:10,030 --> 00:25:13,570
But it's just interesting
that it's here.
451
00:25:13,570 --> 00:25:17,530
So this is what's really,
really amazing
about this rock art.
452
00:25:17,530 --> 00:25:21,700
You have right here
what almost looks like
a large portal or gateway
453
00:25:21,700 --> 00:25:24,600
-and some creature
coming out of it.
-Yeah.
454
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,130
[James] Like, going down
into the mountain.
455
00:25:26,130 --> 00:25:28,130
[Chad] Super interesting.
456
00:25:28,130 --> 00:25:29,530
Look at the squiggly lines
457
00:25:29,530 --> 00:25:31,270
under
the anthropomorphic figure.
458
00:25:31,270 --> 00:25:33,800
In traditional maps,
that's what you use for water.
459
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,830
Is that a river
running underground?
460
00:25:36,830 --> 00:25:38,630
-You know, is there
a water feature underground?
-[Ryan] Like the water
461
00:25:38,630 --> 00:25:41,930
-that Duane tapped
into under the ranch?
-Exactly.
462
00:25:41,930 --> 00:25:44,030
[Chad]
It's just hard not to thinkthat there's a connection
463
00:25:44,030 --> 00:25:45,870
between the petroglyphs
and our ranch.
464
00:26:00,430 --> 00:26:01,930
[Charlie] That's the pond,
right there.
465
00:26:01,930 --> 00:26:04,500
I saw the tracks coming up.
It was right in here.
466
00:26:04,500 --> 00:26:06,130
All the way down
to the beaver ponds
467
00:26:06,130 --> 00:26:08,070
-about what? A quarter mile?
-[Emery] Yeah, at least.
468
00:26:09,130 --> 00:26:12,070
And I swam all the way back
as far as I could go...
469
00:26:12,070 --> 00:26:14,030
-[Emery] Right.
-...and the tracks
led all the way back
470
00:26:14,030 --> 00:26:15,530
to that hole back there.
471
00:26:15,530 --> 00:26:17,700
[Emery] Huh. Well,
let's get these samples.
472
00:26:17,700 --> 00:26:19,830
I'm gonna do a sample here.
473
00:26:19,830 --> 00:26:21,230
[narrator] Back at Blind Frog,
474
00:26:21,230 --> 00:26:24,030
Emery Smith takesa water sample from the pond
475
00:26:24,030 --> 00:26:25,870
to test for DNA.
476
00:26:25,870 --> 00:26:27,570
There's a lot of life in here.
477
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:29,870
They all leave DNA behind.
478
00:26:29,870 --> 00:26:32,470
We're gonna doa full microbiology,
479
00:26:32,470 --> 00:26:34,130
which means we're gonna see
480
00:26:34,130 --> 00:26:35,670
what kind of microbesare there,
481
00:26:35,670 --> 00:26:37,200
how many living creaturesare in there
482
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,670
and who's feeding off of who.
483
00:26:39,670 --> 00:26:41,730
All right, looks good, fellas.
484
00:26:41,730 --> 00:26:43,630
We have the samplesand our job
485
00:26:43,630 --> 00:26:45,830
is to get these tests done.
486
00:26:45,830 --> 00:26:47,130
Off to the lab.
487
00:26:55,230 --> 00:26:57,430
[Chad] Mosby Sink is dryas a bone over there.
488
00:26:57,430 --> 00:26:59,770
So that means
the energy zone has to be dry.
489
00:26:59,770 --> 00:27:01,400
And we can start drilling.
490
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,230
[narrator] Withthe flood waters receded,
491
00:27:03,230 --> 00:27:05,470
the team can finally canturn their sights
492
00:27:05,470 --> 00:27:07,570
back to drillingin the keyhole formation
493
00:27:07,570 --> 00:27:09,030
that sits below the vent shaft
494
00:27:09,030 --> 00:27:11,870
that James discoveredwith his magnetometer.
495
00:27:13,070 --> 00:27:17,100
How deep did that, uh, scan
show where the vent shaft is?
496
00:27:17,100 --> 00:27:19,770
It's just short of a 125 feet.
497
00:27:19,770 --> 00:27:21,870
[Duane] We need to bring in
a rat hole rig.
498
00:27:21,870 --> 00:27:24,770
And it'll drop us down
about a 150 foot.
499
00:27:24,770 --> 00:27:26,900
It would give us
about 30-inch hole.
500
00:27:26,900 --> 00:27:29,600
It'll get us into
that [bleep] cavern.
501
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,770
What's the plan
when we hit the chamber
502
00:27:31,770 --> 00:27:33,270
with the rat hole rig?
503
00:27:33,270 --> 00:27:35,700
You know, once we tap
into the roof of that deal,
504
00:27:35,700 --> 00:27:38,400
you know good and well,
we're gonna have to drop
some cameras down there.
505
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,530
And if it's a big void
and we're at the top
of the cave,
506
00:27:41,530 --> 00:27:45,070
we will build a basket
that could let somebody
down in there
507
00:27:45,070 --> 00:27:46,470
with oxygen and everything.
508
00:27:46,470 --> 00:27:50,070
We'll bring in a crane
and drop that basket
down in there.
509
00:27:50,070 --> 00:27:52,230
Take the hole we have,
then widen it,
510
00:27:52,230 --> 00:27:53,570
and then we could
definitely fit, like,
511
00:27:53,570 --> 00:27:55,630
a whole basket down in there
without getting stuck.
512
00:27:55,630 --> 00:27:58,370
So we could have plenty
of room to get
in and out of there.
513
00:27:58,370 --> 00:28:01,900
[narrator] Duane's planis to drill a shaft150 feet deep
514
00:28:01,900 --> 00:28:03,600
into the keyhole chamber,
515
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:04,930
then widen the shaft,
516
00:28:04,930 --> 00:28:08,170
so a person can be loweredinto the chamber from above.
517
00:28:08,170 --> 00:28:09,970
This'll be the deepest
we've ever dug, though,
518
00:28:09,970 --> 00:28:12,970
so there's gonna be
a lot of logistical issues.
519
00:28:12,970 --> 00:28:14,500
If we're going a 150 foot,
520
00:28:14,500 --> 00:28:16,330
that means we're gonna go
through different layers.
521
00:28:16,330 --> 00:28:17,970
So we're gonna start
at the sandstone
522
00:28:17,970 --> 00:28:19,270
and we could hit limestone,
523
00:28:19,270 --> 00:28:21,230
we could hit quartz
and really hard [bleep].
524
00:28:21,230 --> 00:28:23,230
It's just gonna take longer
to get through.
525
00:28:23,230 --> 00:28:26,400
All that hard stone
is gonna wear that bed out,
526
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,700
so they need to bring in
a lot of extra teeth
527
00:28:29,700 --> 00:28:31,600
'cause it'll get hot...
528
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,630
and it'll melt those teeth.
529
00:28:33,630 --> 00:28:35,530
Just getting
that thing over there
is gonna be a bitch.
530
00:28:35,530 --> 00:28:38,800
Like, we're gonna
have to track it in
which will take a full day.
531
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:40,930
Well, we got to prepare
the site too.
532
00:28:40,930 --> 00:28:43,130
That's right.
Yeah, we need a flat...
533
00:28:43,130 --> 00:28:45,070
'cause if he's
off tilted a little bit,
534
00:28:45,070 --> 00:28:46,670
-it won't dig a hole.
-Yeah.
535
00:28:46,670 --> 00:28:50,330
All right, we got a plan.
Let's go get this deal
done now.
536
00:28:50,330 --> 00:28:52,070
-It's time.
-Finally.
537
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,400
[motor whirring,
wheels squeaking]
538
00:29:06,470 --> 00:29:07,530
[Chad] Oscar!
539
00:29:08,100 --> 00:29:09,100
What's up, brother?
540
00:29:09,100 --> 00:29:11,100
-How are you?
-Good, man. How're you doing?
541
00:29:11,100 --> 00:29:13,870
So we brought in the,uh, rat hole rig today.
542
00:29:13,870 --> 00:29:17,230
Uh, we're gonna track it
all the way
to the energy zone.
543
00:29:17,230 --> 00:29:19,070
How long do you think
it'll take to track over there
544
00:29:19,070 --> 00:29:21,100
-to the field site?
-[Oscar] Uh, probably
a couple of hours.
545
00:29:21,100 --> 00:29:22,400
-Couple of hours?
-[Oscar] Yeah.
546
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,930
-[Chad] All right.
-I have to go real slow.
I see the road...
547
00:29:24,930 --> 00:29:26,330
[Chad] Yeah.
548
00:29:26,330 --> 00:29:27,770
[narrator] The 35-ton drill
549
00:29:27,770 --> 00:29:30,170
will need to slowlytravel two miles
550
00:29:30,170 --> 00:29:31,670
to reach the site.
551
00:29:31,670 --> 00:29:33,400
It's a long a tedious route
552
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,830
over rough and uneven trails,
553
00:29:35,830 --> 00:29:37,300
crossing a steep ravine
554
00:29:37,300 --> 00:29:39,530
that still has water in itfrom the flooding.
555
00:29:39,530 --> 00:29:41,600
But the mostdifficult maneuver
556
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,570
will be navigatinga 750-foot climb
557
00:29:44,570 --> 00:29:46,930
over the backsideof the energy zone.
558
00:29:46,930 --> 00:29:49,740
-[Oscar] Here we go.
-[Duane] Copy that.
559
00:29:49,740 --> 00:29:53,000
It is very difficult
for these guys to get
this equipment up here.
560
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,740
It really is.
It's no game. Uh...
561
00:29:55,740 --> 00:29:56,970
It's pretty steep.
562
00:29:56,970 --> 00:29:58,430
He can slip and slide.
563
00:29:58,430 --> 00:30:00,270
It's... it's a real project.
564
00:30:00,270 --> 00:30:03,830
You're gonna have a little
bit of a slippery drive
over there on the rock.
565
00:30:06,100 --> 00:30:07,500
I'll be above you
the whole time.
566
00:30:07,500 --> 00:30:09,800
If I need to drag on you
or something, I will.
567
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:10,830
I can tug you up.
568
00:30:10,830 --> 00:30:12,770
This is not my
first rodeo either.
569
00:30:12,770 --> 00:30:14,530
-Yeah, we'll go real slow...
-Yeah.
570
00:30:14,530 --> 00:30:16,570
-...make sure
to break nothing and...
-Okay.
571
00:30:21,630 --> 00:30:22,670
[Duane] Okay.
572
00:30:22,670 --> 00:30:24,930
[narrator] The 35-tonrat hole rig
573
00:30:24,930 --> 00:30:27,900
needs a hydraulic motorand brakes to move it around.
574
00:30:27,900 --> 00:30:29,800
While enormously powerful,
575
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,330
the temperatureof the hydraulics needsto be carefully maintained
576
00:30:33,330 --> 00:30:35,100
or the brakes can fail,
577
00:30:35,100 --> 00:30:37,430
sending 35 tons hurdling
578
00:30:37,430 --> 00:30:39,600
uncontrolled, down the hill.
579
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,000
[Duane] Here we go.
580
00:30:41,570 --> 00:30:43,330
Bring it on down, Oscar.
581
00:30:44,370 --> 00:30:46,370
What we're gonna do
is take the rat hole rig
582
00:30:46,370 --> 00:30:48,530
right down to this ravine.
583
00:30:48,530 --> 00:30:51,500
He's probably gonna
have to spin
his derrick around
584
00:30:51,500 --> 00:30:55,670
and back up there
and if he slips and can't
get up, then I'll, uh,
585
00:30:55,670 --> 00:30:57,900
I'll put a tether on the back
and drag him up.
586
00:31:00,130 --> 00:31:03,200
It's gonna be a little muddy
out there, a little slippery.
587
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,200
These guys that are coming in,they know what they're doing,
588
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,370
but they're standingon a hill. It's dangerous.
589
00:31:09,370 --> 00:31:11,400
So they gotta get this right.
590
00:31:14,030 --> 00:31:15,900
[squeaking]
591
00:31:25,470 --> 00:31:27,670
[Duane] Don't make
that [bleep] pucker up.
592
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:29,740
Here he comes.
593
00:31:29,740 --> 00:31:31,330
Hell, yeah.
594
00:31:41,500 --> 00:31:43,300
[Oscar] Hydraulics overheated.
595
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,900
Yeah, argh, it's stuck.
596
00:31:46,900 --> 00:31:49,230
Rat hole rig, looks like,
it stopped right now.
597
00:31:49,230 --> 00:31:51,500
We'll have to go
over there and see what
the [bleep] is the problem.
598
00:31:54,070 --> 00:31:57,270
[grunts] What the hell
is going on?
599
00:31:57,270 --> 00:31:58,530
[Oscar] Yeah, it jammed.
600
00:32:02,870 --> 00:32:04,070
[Duane] Okay, copy that.
601
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,430
-It's a long way over here.
Sorry about that.
-Yeah.
602
00:32:13,430 --> 00:32:15,170
But we still
got to get it over here.
603
00:32:20,100 --> 00:32:22,170
[narrator] The brutal terrainat the ranch is causing
604
00:32:22,170 --> 00:32:25,430
the hydraulicson the rat hole rigto overheat.
605
00:32:25,430 --> 00:32:28,930
He has problems
with his hydraulics
heating up.
606
00:32:28,930 --> 00:32:32,770
If we can't getthat rat hole rigto the energy zone,
607
00:32:32,770 --> 00:32:34,500
we're not gonnabe able to drill.
608
00:32:34,500 --> 00:32:36,170
We're gonna burnthe whole day up.
609
00:32:47,470 --> 00:32:49,270
[Oscar] Yeah, yeah.
610
00:32:50,030 --> 00:32:50,930
[Oscar] Yeah.
611
00:32:55,330 --> 00:32:56,300
Yeah.
612
00:32:58,530 --> 00:33:00,800
-[both] That's a long way.
-Long ways.
613
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,100
Yeah, there used to be
a little river over here.
614
00:33:03,100 --> 00:33:05,900
-If you want me to put
tether on you, I will.
-Okay.
615
00:33:10,770 --> 00:33:12,370
[narrator] The quickapplication of water
616
00:33:12,370 --> 00:33:13,900
has cooled the drill enough
617
00:33:13,900 --> 00:33:16,200
to finish its journeyto the energy zone.
618
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:17,670
-[Duane] We're good?
-Thank you. Appreciate it.
619
00:33:17,670 --> 00:33:19,570
-[Duane] Here we go,
let's do it.
-[Oscar] All right.
620
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:36,470
[Duane] Hell yeah. Hell yeah.
It's another [bleep] cakewalk.
621
00:33:36,470 --> 00:33:38,370
Good job, Oscar. [groans]
622
00:33:39,670 --> 00:33:42,500
-How was it going
down that path?
-Oh, man. Pretty bad.
623
00:33:42,500 --> 00:33:44,530
-Was it really? [laughs]
-[Oscar] Yeah.
624
00:33:50,900 --> 00:33:52,800
Yeah, we'll platform
this whole deal out
625
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,970
-and we'll make it safe.
-[Chad] It was on
the right side from here.
626
00:33:55,970 --> 00:33:59,600
So if we're gonna
carve out some,
it needs to be on that side.
627
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,070
Okay, right. Got it.
628
00:34:01,070 --> 00:34:03,570
[narrator] Now that the drillhas made itto the energy zone,
629
00:34:03,570 --> 00:34:05,830
the next stepis to create a flat,
630
00:34:05,830 --> 00:34:08,470
stable drilling platformfor the rig.
631
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,930
[Duane]
We could have a cave-inor anything like that
632
00:34:30,930 --> 00:34:33,330
and if the dirt goes down,
you go down with it.
633
00:34:33,330 --> 00:34:37,200
So it's no game here.Uh, people can get killed.
634
00:35:43,300 --> 00:35:44,800
-[James] Hey, Duane.
-Hey.
635
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,500
I'm gonna run another
3-D ground image survey.
636
00:35:47,500 --> 00:35:49,040
Okay.
637
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:52,570
[James] We got the drillup here and I know Duaneis anxious to get going.
638
00:35:52,570 --> 00:35:54,200
So I'm gonna take
the magnetometer and try
639
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:55,800
to find that exact spot again,
640
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,900
so we don't spend
any time or money.
641
00:36:03,630 --> 00:36:05,230
-[crackling]
-Oh, wait a minute.
642
00:36:08,570 --> 00:36:09,870
Hello, Missy.
643
00:36:11,500 --> 00:36:12,700
There it is.
644
00:36:12,700 --> 00:36:16,470
Right in that location
is a vertical shaft
straight down.
645
00:36:16,470 --> 00:36:17,870
-Okay.
-[James] Yeah.
646
00:36:17,870 --> 00:36:19,840
-It was right in there.
-So we know that void's
right here, right?
647
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,000
[Chad] Yeah, it's right...
right in front
of where he's standing.
648
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,430
We got 'em on the clock
right now. We need to drill.
649
00:36:24,430 --> 00:36:27,530
-We need to
start drilling right now.
-Yeah, right here.
650
00:36:27,530 --> 00:36:29,530
So this whole deal,
we've been waiting years
651
00:36:29,530 --> 00:36:32,040
and this has cost me
about $20,000 a day.
652
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,840
So we'll start drilling now.
Right now.
653
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:36,840
Everybody just needs to get
the [bleep] out of the way.
654
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:41,330
[whirring, squeaking]
655
00:36:42,470 --> 00:36:45,300
Everybody out of the way.
We got the drill
coming in now.
656
00:36:46,230 --> 00:36:47,470
[Duane] Yeah.
657
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:03,670
[drill wails]
658
00:37:07,070 --> 00:37:08,370
[Chad] Yeah, that's it.
659
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,900
-Hey, guys, we ready to drill?
-[all] Yeah.
660
00:37:13,900 --> 00:37:16,140
Here we go. This is it.
661
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:18,670
[Duane] Yeah, boy.
662
00:37:18,670 --> 00:37:20,300
-[Chad] Yeah, here we go.
-[James] Yeah.
663
00:37:20,300 --> 00:37:21,630
[chuckles] Yeah.
664
00:37:23,370 --> 00:37:24,530
[horns honking]
665
00:37:27,900 --> 00:37:28,870
[horns honking]
666
00:37:28,870 --> 00:37:30,800
That [bleep] horn, man.
667
00:37:32,630 --> 00:37:34,400
How about a radio?
668
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,040
Tell him,
take that son of a bitch
off low idle.
669
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,530
He can drill faster.
670
00:37:39,170 --> 00:37:40,370
He can pick it up.
671
00:37:40,370 --> 00:37:42,670
Hell yeah, he can drill
faster than that.
672
00:37:42,670 --> 00:37:45,330
[honks horn]
I like that horn.
673
00:37:45,330 --> 00:37:48,370
-[Chad] Hey, just yell at me.
-[laughs]
674
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,070
Yo, Oscar, can you
speed that thing up?
675
00:37:54,500 --> 00:37:56,170
[Duane] Yeah, boy!
676
00:37:56,170 --> 00:37:57,770
-[Chad] Yeah, here we go.
-[James] Yeah.
677
00:37:57,770 --> 00:37:59,170
Yeah. [chuckles]
678
00:38:00,170 --> 00:38:02,770
This is a good sign.
Look how dry that is.
679
00:38:02,770 --> 00:38:05,140
We don't want water.
We don't want a wet mess.
680
00:38:05,140 --> 00:38:07,200
So this is dry. It's good.
681
00:38:10,300 --> 00:38:13,870
[thunder rumbling]
682
00:38:17,630 --> 00:38:20,430
[clicks tongue] We're getting
some rain here, surely.
683
00:38:23,140 --> 00:38:24,900
Everybody's focusedon the drilling,
684
00:38:24,900 --> 00:38:26,570
but I've beenwatching the skies
685
00:38:26,570 --> 00:38:28,770
and I'm starting to seesome storm clouds.
686
00:38:31,470 --> 00:38:33,200
Damn energy zone, I guess.
687
00:38:34,300 --> 00:38:36,770
That is how
mountain system here...
688
00:38:36,770 --> 00:38:39,470
really just creates
its own weather pattern.
689
00:38:39,470 --> 00:38:42,100
You just... you never knowwhat it's gonna do.
690
00:38:42,100 --> 00:38:43,500
That pressure drops...
691
00:38:45,140 --> 00:38:47,700
you know, all hell
could break loose here.
692
00:38:47,700 --> 00:38:50,940
-Sort of done.
-Lightning and thunder
and heavy rain.
693
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:54,470
It's coming.
694
00:38:54,470 --> 00:38:56,800
The radar says
it's not that far away.
695
00:38:57,900 --> 00:38:59,530
If that storm makes it here,
696
00:38:59,530 --> 00:39:01,070
-and it starts lightning...
-Yeah.
697
00:39:01,070 --> 00:39:02,900
...we got a [bleep] 100 ft
698
00:39:02,900 --> 00:39:04,900
-lightning rod
sticking up right there.
-Yeah. Exactly.
699
00:39:13,940 --> 00:39:16,330
I went and I got
the lightning strike detector
700
00:39:16,330 --> 00:39:18,100
-that I brought in.
-What's it showing? Anything?
701
00:39:18,100 --> 00:39:19,530
No, we're good so far.
702
00:39:19,530 --> 00:39:21,630
-[Chad] How far
can that reach out?
-[James] 25 miles.
703
00:39:21,630 --> 00:39:23,200
-[Chad] Nice.
-[James] Yeah.
704
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,840
[narrator] James'lightning detector can detectthe electromagnetic pulses
705
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,370
emitted bya lightning strike...
706
00:39:28,370 --> 00:39:31,330
-[thunderclap]
-...by measuring the strengthof the pulse.
707
00:39:31,330 --> 00:39:34,230
The device can estimatethe distance of the strike.
708
00:39:35,630 --> 00:39:37,270
Uh, I'll keep
an eye out for it.
709
00:39:37,270 --> 00:39:38,840
-All right. Thank you.
-All right. Yep.
710
00:39:59,500 --> 00:40:02,000
[thunderclap]
711
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,600
-Hey.
-[horns honking]
712
00:40:07,670 --> 00:40:09,740
-[Chad] Did you hear that?
-What the [bleep] was that?
713
00:40:09,740 --> 00:40:11,400
[Chad] It's lightning.
714
00:40:13,330 --> 00:40:14,970
-What the [bleep] was that?
-[Chad] How close are we?
715
00:40:14,970 --> 00:40:17,430
-[James]Two miles.
-[Chad] Two miles? Which way?
This will show us, right?
716
00:40:17,430 --> 00:40:19,670
Two miles. Hey, Duane!
717
00:40:19,670 --> 00:40:23,670
-[Charlie] Two miles.
-That lightning
is two miles away.
718
00:40:23,670 --> 00:40:27,000
-[thunderclap]
-[James] That was two miles.
719
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:28,670
Do you hear that [bleep]?
720
00:40:28,670 --> 00:40:31,040
-There's another one.
-[thunder rumbling]
721
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,530
Chad, you better
shut 'em down.
722
00:40:33,530 --> 00:40:35,600
There's another one, Duane!
723
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,230
[Charlie] The lightning
is too close now.
724
00:40:37,230 --> 00:40:41,330
[bleep] One thing
after another, huh? Jesus!
725
00:40:41,330 --> 00:40:44,140
-Yeah, we wanna get away
from this lightning rod, huh?
-Yeah.
726
00:40:44,140 --> 00:40:47,500
-We'll, uh, we'll start again
tomorrow morning?
-You got it.
727
00:40:48,140 --> 00:40:49,100
[man screams]
728
00:40:49,100 --> 00:40:51,630
-[thunderclap]
-[bleeping]
729
00:40:54,630 --> 00:40:57,200
[narrator] Next timeon Blind Frog Ranch...
730
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,170
[Chad] Oscar is pushingthat drill to the limit,
731
00:41:00,170 --> 00:41:01,170
but we can't get through.
732
00:41:07,370 --> 00:41:09,770
It's like somethingbeyond our control out here.
733
00:41:09,770 --> 00:41:10,800
[groans]
734
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:12,530
We keep on pushing
and it keeps on fighting back.
735
00:41:12,530 --> 00:41:16,170
We did EDX with a scanning
electronic microscope
736
00:41:16,170 --> 00:41:18,230
and we found iridium.
737
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,940
Well, iridium means
of earth, right?
738
00:41:20,940 --> 00:41:22,570
It's not natural
to this planet.
739
00:41:22,570 --> 00:41:24,530
There is something huge
740
00:41:24,530 --> 00:41:26,200
going on on your property.
741
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:29,530
Congratulations, boys.Looks like y'all got a meteor
742
00:41:29,530 --> 00:41:31,170
at Blind Frog Ranch.
