This thing's hopping all over the place. 11 00:00:28,767 --> 00:00:30,133 Magnetic north has been shifted. 12 00:00:30,266 --> 00:00:32,834 It's pointing toward where they're drilling. 13 00:00:32,967 --> 00:00:34,300 The drill's having some kind of effect 14 00:00:34,433 --> 00:00:36,633 on the magnetic field of the ranch. 15 00:00:36,767 --> 00:00:39,633 -BRYANT: Look at that. -CASEY: That is some dark stuff. 16 00:00:39,767 --> 00:00:41,266 I don't know what to make of that. 17 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:43,033 I got the data back from the analysis 18 00:00:43,166 --> 00:00:44,433 on that interesting black stuff. 19 00:00:44,567 --> 00:00:46,533 -Take a look. -TRAVIS: That's all the stuff 20 00:00:46,667 --> 00:00:50,300 you would need to put together modern-day electronics. 21 00:00:50,433 --> 00:00:52,433 Oh. 22 00:00:52,567 --> 00:00:56,133 NARRATOR: There is a ranch in Northern Utah. 23 00:00:56,266 --> 00:00:58,867 It is considered the epicenter 24 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,533 of the strangest and most disturbing phenomena on Earth: 25 00:01:03,667 --> 00:01:05,900 animal mutilations, 26 00:01:06,033 --> 00:01:08,266 bizarre UFO sightings 27 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:13,433 and unusual energies that have proven harmful to humans. 28 00:01:13,567 --> 00:01:15,934 For 20 years, the federal government 29 00:01:16,066 --> 00:01:19,367 tried to find answers and failed. 30 00:01:19,500 --> 00:01:23,433 Now a new team of dedicated scientists, 31 00:01:23,567 --> 00:01:27,266 researchers and experts has taken over. 32 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,367 They are determined to solve the mystery and reveal... 33 00:01:34,066 --> 00:01:37,667 ...The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch. 34 00:01:44,900 --> 00:01:46,400 THOMAS: All right, we got stuff crammed up in here. 35 00:01:46,533 --> 00:01:50,867 Well, I guess, uh, we set up over close to the doorway. 36 00:01:51,967 --> 00:01:53,767 Thomas, why don't you go ahead and, uh, 37 00:01:53,900 --> 00:01:55,367 go in there to where the wellhead is 38 00:01:55,500 --> 00:01:57,767 and, uh, get a clean spot 39 00:01:57,900 --> 00:02:00,233 -and hook the wire to it. -Okay. 40 00:02:00,367 --> 00:02:03,066 TRAVIS: After more than two months of new investigations 41 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,767 on Skinwalker Ranch, 42 00:02:04,900 --> 00:02:07,333 we're finally starting to make possible connections 43 00:02:07,467 --> 00:02:09,667 that might explain some of the bizarre phenomena 44 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,767 that keep happening here. 45 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,667 BRYANT: Oh, look at that. 46 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,333 TRAVIS: The highly conductive black material 47 00:02:17,467 --> 00:02:19,934 we obtained last week 48 00:02:20,066 --> 00:02:22,333 about 100 feet below the triangle area 49 00:02:22,467 --> 00:02:26,600 where we've also seen a bunch of weird things, including UFOs, 50 00:02:26,734 --> 00:02:28,800 was located right where a recent magnetometry survey 51 00:02:28,934 --> 00:02:30,800 revealed a huge anomaly. 52 00:02:30,934 --> 00:02:34,467 Well, that same survey showed another, similar feature 53 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,600 right here beneath Homestead Two. 54 00:02:36,734 --> 00:02:39,567 We want to know if there could be some kind of connection 55 00:02:39,700 --> 00:02:41,500 between the high strangeness we've seen 56 00:02:41,633 --> 00:02:43,100 at both of these sites. 57 00:02:43,233 --> 00:02:45,433 So, Erik and I have devised an experiment 58 00:02:45,567 --> 00:02:47,734 to actually measure the conductivity, 59 00:02:47,867 --> 00:02:50,967 where we're going to use the well pipe 60 00:02:51,100 --> 00:02:52,967 and a conductor grounding rod, 61 00:02:53,100 --> 00:02:55,333 separated by about 50 or 60 feet, 62 00:02:55,467 --> 00:02:58,400 and we're gonna connect those to a wire 63 00:02:58,533 --> 00:03:01,633 through a multimeter that will measure voltage and current, 64 00:03:01,767 --> 00:03:04,734 and then that to a 12-volt car battery. 65 00:03:07,667 --> 00:03:10,967 Now, the key here is that the circuit is open. 66 00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:13,734 The only thing connecting them is dirt. 67 00:03:13,867 --> 00:03:15,900 So, we've got that end connected to the ground wire 68 00:03:16,033 --> 00:03:18,400 and that end is connected to the well. 69 00:03:18,533 --> 00:03:21,066 TRAVIS: So, if the dirt is highly conductive, 70 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,166 then current should flow out of the battery, 71 00:03:24,300 --> 00:03:26,533 through our measuring device, through the wire, 72 00:03:26,667 --> 00:03:28,300 through the copper rod, through the dirt, 73 00:03:28,433 --> 00:03:30,834 up through the well, back through the wire 74 00:03:30,967 --> 00:03:32,633 and back to the battery. 75 00:03:32,767 --> 00:03:34,300 If that's the case, that will tell us 76 00:03:34,433 --> 00:03:36,333 how conductive the dirt is. 77 00:03:36,467 --> 00:03:39,734 If we do measure a lot of conductivity 78 00:03:39,867 --> 00:03:42,033 in the soil out here, do you think that would explain 79 00:03:42,166 --> 00:03:44,367 some of the crazy feelings people have, 80 00:03:44,500 --> 00:03:48,500 some of the instrumentation going haywire, stuff like that? 81 00:03:48,633 --> 00:03:50,066 Uh-- Maybe. 82 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,033 But here's the thing that's missing: the battery. 83 00:03:53,166 --> 00:03:55,700 -Right. -We'd have to figure out where the battery's coming from. 84 00:03:55,834 --> 00:03:57,367 ERIK: Yeah, we don't know what would energize that phenomenon. 85 00:03:57,500 --> 00:03:59,066 TRAVIS: There's still a power source somewhere 86 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,066 that we haven't figured out, but we're hoping this will 87 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,100 help us maybe get to that. 88 00:04:03,233 --> 00:04:04,967 ERIK: I've wondered for a long time 89 00:04:05,100 --> 00:04:08,633 whether there might be some kind of underground energy source. 90 00:04:08,767 --> 00:04:12,133 Some people have expressed the belief that aliens 91 00:04:12,266 --> 00:04:13,967 are somehow involved, 92 00:04:14,100 --> 00:04:19,900 and we may be on to why a conjectured alien civilization 93 00:04:20,033 --> 00:04:22,200 or some ancient Earth civilization 94 00:04:22,333 --> 00:04:26,633 may have used the area as a power storage. 95 00:04:26,767 --> 00:04:28,734 -Are we ready to do this? -TRAVIS: I'd say we are. 96 00:04:28,867 --> 00:04:30,633 -Is that other end hooked up? All right, Erik. -BRYANT: Yep. 97 00:04:30,767 --> 00:04:32,166 -TRAVIS: Hook it up. -All right, let's go. 98 00:04:38,533 --> 00:04:40,734 -TRAVIS: There-- Look at that.
