00:01:30,689 --> 00:01:32,223 For decades, this stretch of 30 00:01:32,257 --> 00:01:34,659 ocean, covering over 500,000 31 00:01:34,726 --> 00:01:36,928 square miles, located between 32 00:01:36,962 --> 00:01:40,231 Miami, Puerto Rico and Bermuda, 33 00:01:40,265 --> 00:01:42,300 has baffled scientists, 34 00:01:42,401 --> 00:01:44,502 experienced sailors, and even 35 00:01:44,570 --> 00:01:46,571 military investigators. 36 00:01:46,572 --> 00:01:47,572 >> PHILIP COPPENS: Planes 37 00:01:47,639 --> 00:01:50,208 disappearing, various kinds of 38 00:01:50,275 --> 00:01:52,477 strange lights being seen, a 39 00:01:52,544 --> 00:01:54,846 whole bunch of weirdness, all 40 00:01:54,913 --> 00:01:56,380 conglomerating into this very 41 00:01:56,415 --> 00:01:58,182 tight corner of the

00:02:03,555 --> 00:02:05,523 yet the crew has just vanished. 46 00:02:05,624 --> 00:02:06,624 >> GIAN QUASAR: This is 47 00:02:06,658 --> 00:02:07,792 something that's very real. 48 00:02:07,893 --> 00:02:09,527 They exist in records, and now 49 00:02:09,595 --> 00:02:11,229 that they're all gone, in fair 50 00:02:11,263 --> 00:02:13,331 weather. 51 00:02:13,365 --> 00:02:14,799 That is not supernatural 52 00:02:14,833 --> 00:02:15,967 phenomenon to me. 53 00:02:16,001 --> 00:02:19,504 That is something unexplained. 54 00:02:19,538 --> 00:02:21,239 >> NARRATOR: What caused ships 55 00:02:21,306 --> 00:02:23,341 and planes to disappear without 56 00:02:23,375 --> 00:02:24,709 a trace? 57 00:02:24,776 --> 00:02:26,344 Why has aeronautical and 58 00:02:26,411 --> 00:02:27,979 navigational equipment stopped 59 00:02:28,013 --> 00:02:30,248 working or changed course by 60 00:02:30,282 --> 00:02:32,950 itself? 61 00:02:32,985 --> 00:02:34,752 Historical shipping records show 62 00:02:34,786 --> 00:02:36,320 that the mysteries of the 63 00:02:36,421 --> 00:02:38,789 Bermuda Triangle are much older 64 00:02:38,857 --> 00:02:41,225 than many people realize. 65 00:02:41,326 --> 00:02:43,327 Ever since the earliest days of 66 00:02:43,428 --> 00:02:45,963 oceanic exploration, sailors 67 00:02:46,031 --> 00:02:47,498 have witnessed strange sights. 68 00:02:47,566 --> 00:02:48,666 >> JASON MARTELL: Really, the 69 00:02:48,700 --> 00:02:50,234 awareness of the Bermuda 70 00:02:50,302 --> 00:02:51,335 Triangle started with 71 00:02:51,370 --> 00:02:52,603 Christopher Columbus, being such 72 00:02:52,671 --> 00:02:53,971 an esoteric navigator and a 73 00:02:54,039 --> 00:02:56,407 well-respected sailor, his log 74 00:02:56,475 --> 00:02:57,775 traversing to the New World is 75 00:02:57,843 --> 00:02:59,844 very accurate. 76 00:02:59,845 --> 00:03:01,245 And it turns out, just as 77 00:03:01,313 --> 00:03:03,614 Columbus got into the area known 78 00:03:03,649 --> 00:03:04,849 as the Bermuda Triangle, he 79 00:03:04,883 --> 00:03:06,017 recorded having compass 80 00:03:06,051 --> 00:03:07,418 malfunctions. 81 00:03:07,486 --> 00:03:08,786 The following night he saw a 82 00:03:08,854 --> 00:03:11,689 large fireball hit the ocean. 83 00:03:11,757 --> 00:03:13,224 >> COPPENS: He saw strange 84 00:03:13,292 --> 00:03:14,692 lights, he saw strange weather 85 00:03:14,793 --> 00:03:16,327 phenomena happening there. 86 00:03:16,395 --> 00:03:17,695 So it's definitely a case that 87 00:03:17,729 --> 00:03:18,763 the story of the Bermuda 88 00:03:18,830 --> 00:03:20,298 Triangle is not just some 89 00:03:20,332 --> 00:03:21,599 modern or some urban myth at 90 00:03:21,700 --> 00:03:23,467 the threshold of the 21st 91 00:03:23,502 --> 00:03:25,703 century, it is as old as there 92 00:03:25,771 --> 00:03:27,738 are accounts of people going 93 00:03:27,773 --> 00:03:30,308 into that area. 94 00:03:30,375 --> 00:03:31,776 >> NARRATOR: About 450 years 95 00:03:31,877 --> 00:03:34,645 after Columbus, on December 5, 96 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,949 1945, the U.S. military 97 00:03:38,016 --> 00:03:39,584 experienced the Bermuda 98 00:03:39,651 --> 00:03:41,218 Triangle's most perplexing 99 00:03:41,286 --> 00:03:42,486 mystery. 100 00:03:42,554 --> 00:03:44,655 At 2:00 in the afternoon, five 101 00:03:44,690 --> 00:03:46,958 U.S. Navy torpedo bombers flew 102 00:03:47,025 --> 00:03:48,759 from a naval base in Fort 103 00:03:48,794 --> 00:03:50,661 Lauderdale, Florida, on a 104 00:03:50,729 --> 00:03:53,497 routine training exercise. 105 00:03:53,565 --> 00:03:55,399 But not long into the two-hour 106 00:03:55,500 --> 00:03:57,969 mission, all five planes were 107 00:03:58,036 --> 00:04:02,006 suddenly gone. 108 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,674 The mystery was compounded when 109 00:04:03,709 --> 00:04:05,876 the Navy sent out a rescue plane 110 00:04:05,944 --> 00:04:08,279 and it, too, disappeared. 111 00:04:10,716 --> 00:04:13,417 Six planes, all flown by 112 00:04:13,485 --> 00:04:16,587 skilled pilots, had vanished 113 00:04:16,655 --> 00:04:18,456 into oblivion. 114 00:04:18,490 --> 00:04:19,757 >> QUASAR: That struck everybody 115 00:04:19,858 --> 00:04:21,325 as very odd. 116 00:04:21,393 --> 00:04:22,593 This was now the modern era-- 117 00:04:22,661 --> 00:04:25,363 we have radar, we have radio, 118 00:04:25,397 --> 00:04:28,466 and still five aircraft 119 00:04:28,500 --> 00:04:29,600 vanished. 120 00:04:29,668 --> 00:04:30,568 >> COPPENS: Now, the question 121 00:04:30,636 --> 00:04:32,670 is, where have all of them gone? 122 00:04:32,771 --> 00:04:34,271 It really is as if they have 123 00:04:34,306 --> 00:04:36,674 been snapped out of our reality 124 00:04:36,742 --> 00:04:37,942 into something else. 125 00:04:38,010 --> 00:04:39,210 And, of course, what that 126 00:04:39,277 --> 00:04:40,578 something is, that's the 127 00:04:40,646 --> 00:04:43,381 mystery of the Bermuda Triangle. 128 00:04:43,415 --> 00:04:44,682 >> NARRATOR: Over the years, few 129 00:04:44,750 --> 00:04:46,484 have lived to tell of any 130 00:04:46,551 --> 00:04:47,685 strange anomalies that have 131 00:04:47,753 --> 00:04:49,654 occurred to them in the Bermuda 132 00:04:49,688 --> 00:04:51,656 Triangle. 133 00:04:53,692 --> 00:04:55,960 But American pilot Bruce Gernon 134 00:04:56,028 --> 00:04:58,396 is an exception. 135 00:04:58,430 --> 00:05:02,199 In 1970, Gernon, his father and 136 00:05:02,267 --> 00:05:03,834 a business associate were 137 00:05:03,869 --> 00:05:05,302 flying from the Bahamas to 138 00:05:05,370 --> 00:05:08,139 Florida when Gernon reported 139 00:05:08,206 --> 00:05:10,408 seeing a strange cloud directly 140 00:05:10,475 --> 00:05:12,576 out in front of their plane. 141 00:05:12,644 --> 00:05:14,745 Then, as he approached, Gernon 142 00:05:14,780 --> 00:05:16,647 claims the cloud formed a 143 00:05:16,682 --> 00:05:19,483 donut-shaped hole, or vortex. 144 00:05:19,584 --> 00:05:21,285 >> GERNON: The tunnel was huge 145 00:05:21,319 --> 00:05:22,920 at first, but then it started 146 00:05:22,954 --> 00:05:25,589 getting smaller rapidly. 147 00:05:25,590 --> 00:05:27,358 When I penetrated into the 148 00:05:27,459 --> 00:05:29,460 tunnel, an incredible thing 149 00:05:29,494 --> 00:05:31,495 happened. 150 00:05:31,496 --> 00:05:33,330 These lines instantly formed. 151 00:05:33,365 --> 00:05:34,732 It was like looking down a 152 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,534 rifle barrel, because the lines 153 00:05:36,601 --> 00:05:37,535 were swirling slowly 154 00:05:37,636 --> 00:05:38,803 counterclockwise. 155 00:05:38,870 --> 00:05:40,371 I encountered some intense 156 00:05:40,439 --> 00:05:41,372 electricity. 157 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:42,907 There were, like, flashes going 158 00:05:42,974 --> 00:05:44,709 on and off. 159 00:05:44,776 --> 00:05:46,243 And all I could see was this 160 00:05:46,278 --> 00:05:48,913 strange grayish-yellowish fog. 161 00:05:48,980 --> 00:05:51,882 I call it "electronic fog." 162 00:05:51,983 --> 00:05:53,417 I noticed that my instruments 163 00:05:53,452 --> 00:05:56,253 were malfunctioning, and at the 164 00:05:56,321 --> 00:05:57,888 same time, I'm feeling this 165 00:05:57,989 --> 00:06:00,891 unbelievable sensation. 166 00:06:00,992 --> 00:06:02,727 >> NARRATOR: Gernon says when he 167 00:06:02,794 --> 00:06:04,528 finally exited the tunnel, he 168 00:06:04,596 --> 00:06:06,263 radioed Miami air traffic 169 00:06:06,298 --> 00:06:07,832 control, but they couldn't find 170 00:06:07,866 --> 00:06:12,570 his plane on their radar screen. 171 00:06:12,604 --> 00:06:14,238 >> GERNON: And then about 172 00:06:14,272 --> 00:06:15,840 three minutes later, the radar 173 00:06:15,874 --> 00:06:17,808 controller came back on the 174 00:06:17,843 --> 00:06:19,610 radio, and he's all excited. 175 00:06:19,644 --> 00:06:21,278 He had identified me over Miami, 176 00:06:21,379 --> 00:06:22,446 and I couldn't believe it, 177 00:06:22,547 --> 00:06:23,714 'cause I'd only been flying for 178 00:06:23,749 --> 00:06:24,815 33 minutes. 179 00:06:24,883 --> 00:06:27,284 It should've been more like 180 00:06:27,319 --> 00:06:30,454 an hour and three minutes. 181 00:06:30,522 --> 00:06:31,455 >> NARRATOR: Could such a 182 00:06:31,556 --> 00:06:33,157 discrepancy in time and 183 00:06:33,191 --> 00:06:37,194 location really happen? 184 00:06:37,262 --> 00:06:39,363 And could extraterrestrials be 185 00:06:39,431 --> 00:06:41,365 using this kind of gateway to 186 00:06:41,433 --> 00:06:44,201 travel to Earth? 187 00:06:44,269 --> 00:06:45,636 According to Albert Einstein's 188 00:06:45,704 --> 00:06:47,805 General Theory of Relativity, 189 00:06:47,906 --> 00:06:51,642 it is possible. 190 00:06:51,676 --> 00:06:52,643 >> MARTELL: Through Einstein's 191 00:06:52,677 --> 00:06:53,811 principles of being able to 192 00:06:53,912 --> 00:06:55,646 bend space using a gravitational 193 00:06:55,714 --> 00:06:57,515 pull, it's very possible that 194 00:06:57,549 --> 00:06:59,150 extraterrestrial craft could 195 00:06:59,184 --> 00:07:01,185 somehow get a higher charge of 196 00:07:01,219 --> 00:07:02,520 energy from these locations, 197 00:07:02,554 --> 00:07:03,654 like the Bermuda Triangle, which 198 00:07:03,722 --> 00:07:05,422 allow them to do a burst of 199 00:07:05,457 --> 00:07:07,091 energy, if you will, a warp 200 00:07:07,159 --> 00:07:09,093 speed, and harness some type of 201 00:07:09,127 --> 00:07:10,528 extra particles or energies from 202 00:07:10,562 --> 00:07:12,196 these locations to get them 203 00:07:12,264 --> 00:07:14,431 where they're trying to go. 204 00:07:16,535 --> 00:07:18,002 >> BARA: What happens is, is 205 00:07:18,103 --> 00:07:19,270 that any time you have energy 206 00:07:19,337 --> 00:07:20,805 generated at all, especially 207 00:07:20,872 --> 00:07:22,273 from a higher plane, a higher 208 00:07:22,340 --> 00:07:24,074 dimension, it's going to come 209 00:07:24,142 --> 00:07:25,342 out by spin. 210 00:07:25,377 --> 00:07:26,544 It's going to be rotation and 211 00:07:26,611 --> 00:07:28,078 spin that allows that energy to 212 00:07:28,180 --> 00:07:29,180 gate through. 213 00:07:29,281 --> 00:07:31,282 So, by

that works in both directions. 247 00:08:41,353 --> 00:08:43,354 So if, as ancient astronaut 248 00:08:43,421 --> 00:08:44,855 theorists claim, otherworldly 249 00:08:44,890 --> 00:08:46,857 visitors

Sarabia, a 289 00:10:18,192 --> 00:10:20,427 Mexican pilot, who claimed that 290 00:10:20,461 --> 00:10:22,262 his radio had mysteriously 291 00:10:22,296 --> 00:10:24,264 failed to function while flying 292 00:10:24,298 --> 00:10:27,634 over the area. 293 00:10:27,635 --> 00:10:28,835 >> RUBEN URIARTE: They call it 294 00:10:28,903 --> 00:10:30,337 Mexico's Bermuda Triangle. 295 00:10:30,371

00:10:38,078 of that, it goes and connects 299 00:10:38,179 --> 00:10:39,146 with the Egyptian pyramids, 300 00:10:39,180 --> 00:10:41,782 so, around that whole 301 00:10:41,816 --> 00:10:43,250 sector, there seems to be some 302 00:10:43,284 --> 00:10:44,785 connection between the Zone and 303 00:10:44,819 --> 00:10:45,786 anomalies that occur through 304 00:10:45,820 --> 00:10:46,820 these

magnetic 315 00:10:58,132 --> 00:10:59,466 field does vary across the 316 00:10:59,500 --> 00:11:03,003 surface by up to a few percent. 317 00:11:03,004 --> 00:11:04,004 >> NARRATOR: One of the 318

00:11:52,352 or dragged or pulled into it. 338 00:11:52,386 --> 00:11:54,087 There was a NASA spokesman who 339 00:11:54,155 --> 00:11:55,155 even said it was weird. 340 00:11:55,256 --> 00:11:56,990

like meteorites? 366 00:12:49,277 --> 00:12:51,278 I think we need more research. 367 00:12:51,312 --> 00:12:52,846 But I-I don't think that 368 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:54,014 research is being done

00:30:13,717 investigated the ancient 855 00:30:13,751 --> 00:30:16,720 shamanic religions of Peru, they 856 00:30:16,754 --> 00:30:18,622 told a story of Tici Viracocha, 857 00:30:18,656 --> 00:30:21,024 the creator god, who arrived in 858 00:30:21,092 --> 00:30:22,993 the guise of a man to walk and 859 00:30:23,027 --> 00:30:25,996 inspect his lands. 860 00:30:26,030 --> 00:30:28,165 And he had given them different 861 00:30:28,199 --> 00:30:30,033 orders and there were some rebel 862 00:30:30,101 --> 00:30:32,369 nations that were not doing what 863 00:30:32,437 --> 00:30:34,304 they were supposed to do and he 864 00:30:34,372 --> 00:30:38,074 promptly turned them to stone. 865 00:30:40,378 --> 00:30:42,479 >> NARRATOR: The name Markawasi 866 00:30:42,547 --> 00:30:44,481 provides a clue to its origins 867 00:30:44,549 --> 00:30:46,750 and mystery. 868 00:30:46,784 --> 00:30:48,351 The word itself predates the 869 00:30:48,419 --> 00:30:50,720 Incan Empire. 870 00:30:50,755 --> 00:30:53,056 Markawasi scholar and researcher 871 00:30:53,090 --> 00:30:55,325 Daniel Ruzo believed the name 872 00:30:55,359 --> 00:30:57,627 meant "two-story house" and 873 00:30:57,695 --> 00:30:59,229 referred to the strange complex 874 00:30:59,263 --> 00:31:00,263 of buildings located on the 875 00:31:00,331 --> 00:31:02,332 site. 876 00:31:02,333 --> 00:31:03,967 >> MARTELL: That really raises 877 00:31:04,068 --> 00:31:05,869 the question that scholars and 878 00:31:05,970 --> 00:31:07,070 theologians have been trying to 879 00:31:07,104 --> 00:31:08,672 figure out for many years: 880 00:31:08,706 --> 00:31:10,173 is there an Atlantean or some 881 00:31:10,208 --> 00:31:11,508 lost civilization? 882 00:31:11,542 --> 00:31:13,310 So Markawasi puts that question 883 00:31:13,344 --> 00:31:14,511 back on the map. 884 00:31:14,545 --> 00:31:15,979 Could this be possible? 885 00:31:16,047 --> 00:31:18,081 Were there transoceanic cultures 886 00:31:18,115 --> 00:31:20,016 visiting thousands of years ago, 887 00:31:20,051 --> 00:31:21,117 off the books of recorded 888 00:31:21,185 --> 00:31:23,320 history? 889 00:31:23,354 --> 00:31:25,021 >> NARRATOR: According to Daniel 890 00:31:25,089 --> 00:31:27,290 Ruzo, the ancient civilization 891 00:31:27,391 --> 00:31:29,292 that created Markawasi were a 892 00:31:29,393 --> 00:31:33,129 people known as the Masma... 893 00:31:33,197 --> 00:31:36,399 and supposedly, Peru was not 894 00:31:36,467 --> 00:31:37,400 their only home. 895 00:31:37,468 --> 00:31:39,035 >> ROBERT SCHOCH: The Masma was 896 00:31:39,103 --> 00:31:42,906 this very, very ancient advanced 897 00:31:42,940 --> 00:31:44,674 civilization, advanced culture, 898 00:31:44,709 --> 00:31:46,476 if we want to call it that, that 899 00:31:46,511 --> 00:31:48,211 seems to have been global, seems 900 00:31:48,312 --> 00:31:50,647 to have traveled worldwide at a 901 00:31:50,681 --> 00:31:54,217 very early period, and Ruzo 902 00:31:54,285 --> 00:31:55,852 spent much of his time looking 903 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:57,554 around the world for evidence of 904 00:31:57,655 --> 00:31:59,389 this advanced civilization, 905 00:31:59,457 --> 00:32:01,024 and he thought he found it 906 00:32:01,058 --> 00:32:03,026 at Markawasi. 907 00:32:03,060 --> 00:32:04,995 He actually saw Markawasi, in 908 00:32:05,029 --> 00:32:07,097 many ways, as being like a huge 909 00:32:07,131 --> 00:32:10,033 sculpture garden that the Masma 910 00:32:10,101 --> 00:32:13,937 had built there. 911 00:32:14,005 --> 00:32:16,006 >> NARRATOR: If such a worldwide 912 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,275 community existed, what happened 913 00:32:18,309 --> 00:32:19,276 to it? 914 00:32:19,310 --> 00:32:21,578 Was it, as some believe, wiped 915 00:32:21,646 --> 00:32:24,014 out in the great flood described 916 00:32:24,115 --> 00:32:25,282 in the Bible? 917 00:32:25,349 --> 00:32:26,850 >> BARA: It's very interesting 918 00:32:26,918 --> 00:32:28,018 that these carvings are found 919 00:32:28,085 --> 00:32:30,020 at 12,000 feet because that kind 920 00:32:30,121 --> 00:32:31,121 of implies that civilization 921 00:32:31,188 --> 00:32:32,289 started at the top and then 922 00:32:32,356 --> 00:32:34,357 worked its way back down as the 923 00:32:34,392 --> 00:32:36,393 waters of the flood receded. 924 00:32:36,460 --> 00:32:37,627 It's almost as if the first 925 00:32:37,662 --> 00:32:40,030 thing they did when Noah's Ark 926 00:32:40,064 --> 00:32:41,298 descended and landed, maybe 927 00:32:41,365 --> 00:32:43,199 landed at Markawasi, was to 928 00:32:43,301 --> 00:32:44,467 record all the animals that they 929 00:32:44,502 --> 00:32:46,202 had collected, if you buy the 930 00:32:46,237 --> 00:32:47,637 whole concept of a story of 931 00:32:47,705 --> 00:32:49,272 saving what was left of humanity 932 00:32:49,373 --> 00:32:50,473 and saving what they could of 933 00:32:50,541 --> 00:32:52,475 the animal kingdom. 934 00:32:52,476 --> 00:32:54,210 >> SCHOCH: If these are real 935 00:32:54,278 --> 00:32:56,379 sculptures or even natural 936 00:32:56,414 --> 00:32:58,248 formations that were touched up, 937 00:32:58,282 --> 00:33:02,285 they are so old geologically 938 00:33:02,353 --> 00:33:03,887 that all we can really do is 939 00:33:03,921 --> 00:33:05,989 fall back to some of the 940 00:33:06,023 --> 00:33:07,290 speculations of people like 941 00:33:07,358 --> 00:33:09,392 Daniel Ruzo-- that this was some 942 00:33:09,460 --> 00:33:12,562 kind of very ancient 943 00:33:12,663 --> 00:33:15,165 civilization. 944 00:33:15,199 --> 00:33:17,067 >> DOORE: Perhaps, indeed, there 945 00:33:17,101 --> 00:33:18,268 were ancient gods. 946 00:33:18,302 --> 00:33:20,003 Perhaps there was a race of 947 00:33:20,037 --> 00:33:22,105 beings of very high-minded 948 00:33:22,173 --> 00:33:25,008 nature that came here in the 949 00:33:25,076 --> 00:33:28,278 early, early times that helped 950 00:33:28,346 --> 00:33:30,113 mankind and that have been 951 00:33:30,147 --> 00:33:32,182 overseeing their handiwork. 952 00:33:32,249 --> 00:33:34,284 >> SCHOCH: I suspect that they 953 00:33:34,318 --> 00:33:36,353 were trying to record something 954 00:33:36,387 --> 00:33:38,355 about their beliefs, their 955 00:33:38,389 --> 00:33:40,924 civilization, something that 956 00:33:40,958 --> 00:33:42,626 could be passed on to future 957 00:33:42,660 --> 00:33:43,627 generations. 958 00:33:43,661 --> 00:33:44,928 They may have realized they 959 00:33:44,996 --> 00:33:46,463 were not going to last forever 960 00:33:46,530 --> 00:33:47,831 and they wanted to leave some 961 00:33:47,898 --> 00:33:49,265 kind of mark, some kind of 962 00:33:49,333 --> 00:33:51,267 record, maybe even some kind of 963 00:33:51,335 --> 00:33:54,838 warning for future generations. 964 00:33:57,274 --> 00:33:58,608 >> NARRATOR: If this advanced, 965 00:33:58,643 --> 00:34:00,910 globe-traveling race existed in 966 00:34:00,945 --> 00:34:03,913 early history, where did they 967 00:34:03,981 --> 00:34:05,048 come from? 968 00:34:05,082 --> 00:34:07,050 According to author George Hunt 969 00:34:07,084 --> 00:34:08,885 Williamson, who first 970 00:34:08,919 --> 00:34:11,187 popularized Markawasi with his 971 00:34:11,255 --> 00:34:14,357 1959 book Road in the Sky, 972 00:34:14,392 --> 00:34:17,794 Markawasi was a "sacred forest" 973 00:34:17,828 --> 00:34:20,263 where extraterrestrial beings 974 00:34:20,364 --> 00:34:22,365 met to plan the future. 975 00:34:22,433 --> 00:34:24,901 And many UFO researchers 976 00:34:24,969 --> 00:34:26,269 believe they're still returning 977 00:34:26,337 --> 00:34:27,971 to this day. 978 00:34:28,005 --> 00:34:29,005 >> DOORE: The mesa has a 979 00:34:29,073 --> 00:34:31,374 plethora of UFO sightings, 980 00:34:31,409 --> 00:34:33,376 ultra-dimensional visitors. 981 00:34:33,411 --> 00:34:35,879 It's an extraordinary place. 982 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:37,681 >> CHILDRESS: What is probably 983 00:34:37,782 --> 00:34:40,784 Peru's most famous UFO photo 984 00:34:40,851 --> 00:34:43,053 was taken near Markawasi in the 985 00:34:43,087 --> 00:34:44,754 1970s by a businessman, who 986 00:34:44,789 --> 00:34:46,856 himself was going up the 987 00:34:46,924 --> 00:34:48,291 trail to the plateau of 988 00:34:48,325 --> 00:34:50,493 Markawasi, when he looked back 989 00:34:50,561 --> 00:34:53,463 down the valley, and there was 990 00:34:53,497 --> 00:34:56,032 a silvery disc in broad 991 00:34:56,067 --> 00:34:58,201 daylight, flying up the valley. 992 00:34:58,202 --> 00:35:00,236 >> NARRATOR: But are there 993 00:35:00,304 --> 00:35:01,938 really special types of energy 994 00:35:02,039 --> 00:35:04,474 flowing around Markawasi that 995 00:35:04,508 --> 00:35:06,209 we are just beginning to 996 00:35:06,310 --> 00:35:08,845 understand? 997 00:35:08,913 --> 00:35:10,947 And if so, have they been 998 00:35:11,015 --> 00:35:12,215 attracting visitors for 999 00:35:12,316 --> 00:35:14,851 thousands of years, as reported 1000 00:35:14,919 --> 00:35:16,219 at some of the world's other 1001 00:35:16,287 --> 00:35:17,921 mysterious places? 1002 00:35:17,955 --> 00:35:19,122 >> BARA: My suspicion is that 1003 00:35:19,223 --> 00:35:20,390 extraterrestrials would be 1004 00:35:20,424 --> 00:35:22,759 more inclined to come to these 1005 00:35:22,827 --> 00:35:24,094 energetic places, not just 1006 00:35:24,128 --> 00:35:25,762 because it would make their 1007 00:35:25,830 --> 00:35:26,830 technology work better, but 1008 00:35:26,864 --> 00:35:27,931 because their bodies are going 1009 00:35:27,998 --> 00:35:29,232 to vibrate at a frequency that's 1010 00:35:29,266 --> 00:35:30,100 more appropriate for the 1011 00:35:30,134 --> 00:35:32,135 universe or the world that they 1012 00:35:32,203 --> 00:35:33,870 inhabit. 1013 00:35:33,938 --> 00:35:35,105 >> SCHOCH: As I have looked at 1014 00:35:35,139 --> 00:35:37,006 studies and studied it myself, 1015 00:35:37,041 --> 00:35:38,475 I think that maybe something 1016 00:35:38,542 --> 00:35:41,277 inherent to those spots-- maybe 1017 00:35:41,312 --> 00:35:43,480 electromagnetic, maybe a 1018 00:35:43,547 --> 00:35:44,714 geomagnetic anomaly-- 1019 00:35:44,815 --> 00:35:46,149 you have, in some cases, 1020 00:35:46,183 --> 00:35:47,150 different types of rocks, 1021 00:35:47,184 --> 00:35:48,451 different types of crystalline 1022 00:35:48,519 --> 00:35:50,153 structures; maybe underground 1023 00:35:50,187 --> 00:35:51,287 flowing water that will carry 1024 00:35:51,355 --> 00:35:52,722 electric currents-- so I think 1025 00:35:52,790 --> 00:35:53,890 there are a lot of 1026 00:35:53,991 --> 00:35:54,891 possibilities. 1027 00:35:54,992 --> 00:35:56,726 But we really don't understand 1028 00:35:56,761 --> 00:35:58,695 exactly what's going on. 1029 00:36:00,831 --> 00:36:01,798 >> NARRATOR: Is there a reason 1030 00:36:01,899 --> 00:36:03,166 why these so-called 1031 00:36:03,234 --> 00:36:05,168 interdimensional space portals 1032 00:36:05,202 --> 00:36:07,270 allegedly appear at certain 1033 00:36:07,338 --> 00:36:08,905 spots on our planet? 1034 00:36:09,006 --> 00:36:11,241 Could there be, as some suggest, 1035 00:36:11,275 --> 00:36:13,810 a pattern to their locations? 1036 00:36:13,878 --> 00:36:16,246 And what evidence exists that 1037 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:18,181 shows our ancient ancestors 1038 00:36:18,215 --> 00:36:20,183 knew the code? 1039 00:36:25,095 --> 00:36:27,423 According to ancient astronaut theorists, 1040 00:36:28,701 --> 00:36:30,091 the mysterious energy-filled 1041 00:36:30,191 --> 00:36:32,593 sites around the world are not 1042 00:36:32,627 --> 00:36:34,328 randomly located. 1043 00:36:34,362 --> 00:36:36,797 They are connected by what is 1044 00:36:36,831 --> 00:36:39,266 referred to as the World Grid-- 1045 00:36:39,300 --> 00:36:41,535 a geometric pattern of energy 1046 00:36:41,603 --> 00:36:43,604 that crisscrosses the globe. 1047 00:36:45,473 --> 00:36:46,540 >> CHILDRESS: Our planet is 1048 00:36:46,608 --> 00:36:48,876 covered with this network of 1049 00:36:48,910 --> 00:36:51,845 very subtle invisible energies 1050 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:53,847 that are all around us. 1051 00:36:53,882 --> 00:36:55,849 But at certain places on the 1052 00:36:55,884 --> 00:36:58,519 planet, these energies come 1053 00:36:58,586 --> 00:37:01,221 together, and they create a 1054 00:37:01,256 --> 00:37:03,891 powerful vortex area. 1055 00:37:03,892 --> 00:37:06,693 And that energy is-is stronger 1056 00:37:06,728 --> 00:37:09,596 and more useful, in a sense, 1057 00:37:09,664

namely in lines. 1114 00:39:18,459 --> 00:39:19,926 And he began to map these 1115 00:39:19,994 --> 00:39:21,294 lines, and he found that these 1116 00:39:21,396 --> 00:39:22,562 lines were not just random, but 1117 00:39:22,664 --> 00:39:25,499 were actually linked to degrees 1118 00:39:25,566 --> 00:39:27,668 of latitudes, and that there 1119 00:39:27,702 --> 00:39:29,469 was really a science behind 1120 00:39:29,537 --> 00:39:32,205 where UFOs were sighted. 1121 00:39:32,206 --> 00:39:33,740 >> NARRATOR: Ancient astronaut 1122 00:39:33,775 --> 00:39:35,742 theorists believe that the 1123

00:39:45,085 They claim that otherworldly 1127 00:39:45,153 --> 00:39:47,454 beings visited our ancestors 1128 00:39:47,522 --> 00:39:49,356 and told them of the special 1129 00:39:49,424 --> 00:39:51,591 powers in these locations. 1130 00:39:51,626 --> 00:39:54,161 Then they say the ancient 1131 00:39:54,195 --> 00:39:55,429 people were shown how to build 1132 00:39:55,463 --> 00:39:57,230 incredible structures to 1133 00:39:57,265 --> 00:40:00,901 magnify these natural powers. 1134 00:40:00,935 --> 00:40:03,637 It's a theory known as geomancy. 1135 00:40:06,708 -->

00:40:17,184 that, we can work with this 1139 00:40:17,218 --> 00:40:18,785 natural energy field around the 1140 00:40:18,820 --> 00:40:21,922 Earth, and, in a similar way to 1141 00:40:21,989 --> 00:40:23,657 acupuncture on a human body, 1142 00:40:23,691 --> 00:40:25,459 we can do that to the 1143 00:40:25,493 --> 00:40:27,194 Earth, too. 1144 00:40:27,261 --> 00:40:28,895 And by putting certain 1145 00:40:28,930 --> 00:40:31,465 structures, or a needle in a 1146 00:40:31,532 --> 00:40:33,633 certain place in the Earth, we 1147 00:40:33,701 --> 00:40:37,537 can accentuate these

00:41:02,764 --> 00:41:04,397 line. 1162 00:41:04,465 --> 00:41:06,299 And the fascinating aspect is 1163 00:41:06,367 --> 00:41:08,635 that many of those towns that 1164 00:41:08,669 --> 00:41:12,773 are on that line, the root of 1165 00:41:12,807 --> 00:41:16,176 the town's name is represented 1166 00:41:16,210 --> 00:41:20,747 across 20, 30 town names. 1167 00:41:20,748 --> 00:41:22,149 >> VON

00:41:35,729 and it's not coincidence. 1175 00:41:35,763 --> 00:41:37,430 Our Stone Age people did not by 1176 00:41:37,465 --> 00:41:39,099 coincidence just put their holy 1177 00:41:39,133 --> 00:41:40,801 places in Stone Age in one line. 1178 00:41:40,902 --> 00:41:42,636 Somebody ordered it, and 1179 00:41:42,737 --> 00:41:45,071 somebody told them, use the 1180 00:41:45,173 --> 00:41:47,007 word "star" for your village. 1181 00:41:47,074 --> 00:41:48,909 For eternity, don't change it. 1182 00:41:48,976 --> 00:41:51,444 >> BARA: So, the question is: 1183 00:41:51,479 -->

extraterrestrial, 1187 00:41:58,486 --> 00:42:00,887 that we did not come from here? 1188 00:42:00,955 --> 00:42:02,455 And it's simply an older 1189 00:42:02,490 --> 00:42:04,724 version of humanity taking care 1190 00:42:04,792 --> 00:42:05,792 of the younger version that 1191 00:42:05,827 --> 00:42:06,960 they're going to leave the 1192 00:42:06,994 --> 00:42:08,161 planet to? 1193 00:42:08,229
