and may contain mature subject matter.
Viewer discretion is advised.
-(bellowing) -TRAVIS: Something's got the cows going nuts. and may contain mature subject matter.
-KANDUS: Holy sh... -THOMAS: What the hell?
-BRANDON: Whoa, this is crazy. -KANDUS: Yeah.
TRAVIS: Due west is due north right now.
So, your compass reading is way off.
TRAVIS: There is a phenomena taking place right now.
We need to get instruments above the ranch so we can get
more data on this phenomena.
There is something underneath us according to the radar.
-CAMERON: Something is tracking us. -BRYANT: We have no visual
on anything beneath the aircraft.
TRAVIS: Dude, I'm getting chills.
Something is following us.
What the hell is under us?
NARRATOR: There is a ranch in Northern Utah.
It is considered the epicenter
of the strangest and most disturbing phenomena on Earth:
animal mutilations,
bizarre UFO sightings
and unusual energies that have proven harmful to humans.
For 20 years, the federal government
tried to find answers and failed.
Now a new team of dedicated scientists,
researchers and experts has taken over.
They are determined to solve the mystery and reveal...
...The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.
ERIK: Brandon, Cameron.
BRANDON: Hey, greetings gentlemen. How are you?
-TRAVIS: Doing well. -ERIK: Doing quite well.
So, thanks for joining us, Brandon.
We really appreciate you letting us use
the helicopter as a test platform.
We've talked a lot about this 5,000-foot, uh, phenomenon
above the, uh, above the mesa.
TRAVIS: We believe that we're
zeroing in on a spot that might be a source
for all the bizarre phenomena
that happens on Skinwalker Ranch.
It's a zone about 5,000 feet above the ground,
which is actually 10,000 feet above sea level,
and we know it as the triangle.
Right over there, you could see something open up in the sky.
TRAVIS: It's an area that we've not only heard stories
from past residents like members of the Sherman family...
There was a peach-colored object up there.
And it went straight up and that hole closed.
...but also where our own experiments have repeatedly
measured high levels of radiation
and stimulated the appearance
of unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAP.
Ignition.
-Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. -We got something, we got something!
We go something right here.
So now, Erik and I want to conduct
the riskiest and most focused experiment yet
to figure out just what could be up there
using Brandon's helicopter.
What we would like to do is get some instrumentation
that we could attach to the exterior, uh,
whether the skids or somewhere on the helicopter,
and then approach this position that's above the ranch
and-and take measurements.
And as far as your instrumentation goes,
we need to make sure
that it doesn't interfere with the helicopter.
Obviously as a pilot, uh, safety is my number-one goal.
It's the asset we are trying to protect,
but more importantly, the people inside.
We're-we're really talking about a minimal equipment set here.
We're talking about spectrum analyzer, uh,
-perhaps the TriField meter... -Uh, the gamma ray detection.
Definitely a gamma ray detector. Nothing heavy.
Nothing that broadcasts a signal that would interfere
with anything aboard the aircraft.
How do you feel about that, Brandon?
Uh, the only way that we can really understand
what is happening in the airspace
is by getting up in the air.
As long as we're utilizing proper health
and safety protocols, and as long as Cameron
is carefully monitoring everything happening,
um, I'm cautiously supportive of this measure.
TRAVIS: The weather is about to turn really cold and really harsh
here in Northern Utah.
So, this is our last opportunity this year
to make any major breakthroughs.
And after everything we've seen and done this year,
I think it's worth the effort
to help the team get some answers.
If at any time during the mission,
I feel uneasy or the team feels uneasy
or we're seeing something that we're not comfortable with,
we're going to shut that down.
-Oh, absolutely. Cameron, at any point... -Yeah. Yeah.
...you, being the-the captain in charge of the vehicle,
uh, it's your-- it's always your call,
and a-- that's the only way it could be.
If we're good with that, we have that understanding
ahead of time, uh, I have, I have no problem with this.
I think it's-it's the next logical step
to finding out what's, uh, going on up there.
That sounds great. Thank you very much.
Uh, wh-- Erik and I will get together
and get the instrument package ready,
and as soon as you guys are, uh, able
to fly out here and instrument it, we'll do the test.
Excellent. I look forward to it.
I look forward to working with you.
-Okay. -Well, we'll get to work.
Let's make it count.
-THOMAS: Thanks, guys. -ERIK: Thanks, guys.
ERIK: I'm gonna sign off now.
-Well, he's here. -Yeah.
BRYANT: I don't know what to expect from this helicopter experiment.
I'm all for furthering the investigation here,
but it does make me nervous when we have
these sorts of experiments that can, ultimately,
if they go wrong, cost someone their life.
And so, we need to do things very carefully,
but also get the data that we need
to hopefully get some answers.
So, we'll see what happens.
Hey, Captain.
-Hey, Dragon, how are you? -How are you doing?
Good to see you.
-Dr. Taylor. -Man, how you doing?
Great to see you, man.
-Good to see you. -Yeah.
-Cameron, good to see you again. -Erik. Thomas.
-Hey, Cameron. -Good to see you, gentlemen.
So, uh, what we got-- what we want to do
is go to three altitudes.
Our big, big peak that we want to get to
is 5,000 feet above the triangle spot down here on the ranch.
So, in the measures that you're comfortable with
and accustomed to using, we're talking about
7,000 feet above sea level, 8,500 feet above sea level.
CAMERON: With the top altitude being
-10,000 feet above sea level. -Barely 10,000 feet
-above sea level, right? -Okay.
ERIK: Cameron Fugal has agreed to take us
to the target altitude incrementally.
We'll be flying at different altitudes
and at different radii from the center point
above the triangle.
On this flight path we will be taking measurements
and data-logging using the gamma ray detector
or Geiger counter, as well as the RF spectrum analyzer.
What we're hoping to do is to find
some support for the idea that there's something going on,
a focal point or an energy source above the mesa.
All right, well then, uh, I'll grab the stuff.
Thomas, if you and, uh-- Cameron, you--
we'll walk out there and you'll show us underneath
-the helicopter where we can hook stuff up. -Excellent.
-Perfect. All right. -All right.
TRAVIS: Three weeks ago, while we were drilling
at the triangle, looking for mysterious
underground structures or objects...
Hey, guys. Look at that.
...we suddenly detected massive energy spikes
on our spectrum analyzer.
So, the Bessie was right over here, right? The cow?
And at the same time, out in the east field
where the cow died last year, we detected high levels
of gamma rays...
We just jumped up above 20 millirem per hour.
...which are even more powerful and possibly dangerous X-rays.
So, we mounted a spectrum analyzer
and a gamma ray detector to the helicopter
to see if the 10,000-foot-high zone
might not only be the source for all the UAP phenomena,
but also all these potentially dangerous energy spikes.
Guys, we'll jump in
-and start the experiment. -All right.
-Good luck, guys. -All right.
-Thank you. -See you in a few.
All right, are we ready?
Yep.
Let's see if we can get them on the transponder, I guess.
The triangle is right in front of us.
CAMERON: Uh, just approaching 7,000 feet,
and we should be approaching a point
for the first turn to the west.
BRYANT: Copy you. We are standing by
watching you, we have a visual on you
and we will watch the flight transponder.
While Thomas and I are on the ground, we are looking
at the flight transponder data so we can see exactly
where the helicopter is, and we can match that up
with a map that Erik has given us
of these rings of height and distance
that he wants to take measurements with.
So, Cameron has outfitted us with a transponder
that we can communicate directly with the helicopter
while they're in flight.
So, they can be at the exact spots on the map
that Erik's looking to get the data from.
You guys are just approaching the six o'clock location.
-Erik, uh, six o'clock position right here. -ERIK: All right.
-All right? -CAMERON: Yeah.
-ERIK: No change, really. We're at six. -Okay.
At what altitude do you show us at?
I am showing you right about 7,000, varying
between 6,995 and just over 7,000,
so you're in a good spot.
We're at three o'clock position now, Erik.
-Okay. -CAMERON: Yeah, confirm, three o'clock position's
what we show now: 7,000.
Three o'clock now.
ERIK: Okay, So that's-that's all the data points...
...on the outside ring.
At this altitude.
-Are we good? -Yeah.
TRAVIS: So, why don't we go now to the next altitude?
-Okay. -So we're going to 8,500 feet above sea level.
Yeah, you m-- and then go back out to the outer ring.
Approaching six o'clock
in three, two, six o'clock.
We are right at 2,500. That's perfect.
All right, I've got the six o'clock position
-at 2,500-foot radius. -(high-pitched beep)
So, I'm showing radar altimeter.
Showing we're only 40 feet above the ground right now.
That's not good.
Cameron, did I understand you correctly,
that your altimeter was showing 40 feet above the ground?
That was what that beeping-- I don't know if you heard
-the beep. -TRAVIS: Yeah, I did-- I-I did.
That was a... that's a little bit disturbing.
So something could be under us?
We keep having this indication that something is just below us.
Erik, we had a slight spike in the gammas there for a second.
I don't know if I feel so good about this.
I don't know what's going on.
TRAVIS: Dude, I'm getting chills.
It's like it's getting closer to us.
-S-Something is following us. -What the hell is under us?
(high-pitched beep)
Whoa, weird.
CAMERON: So something could be under us?
40-something feet under us.
It showed something under us, 40 feet below us.
What the hell is 40 feet under us? I don't get it.
-Air. -Right.
Holy crap.
CAMERON: Hey, uh, while you're down there,
we've got the radar altimeter show that something
was below us-- Here it goes again.
Something showing 50 feet underneath us,
and then it comes and goes.
Uh, do you see anything?
Nothing beneath you transponding at this time.
Thomas is currently looking with binoculars
for anything beneath you.
They're talking about seeing something tracking them
on the radar below the helicopter.
I don't know exactly what that means,
but we're not seeing anything.
So, why don't we go now to the next altitude?
So, we are going to 8,500 feet above sea level.
Looks like we're just tight around the triangle now.
(high-pitched beep)
We keep having this indication that something's just below us.
Okay. Copy that.
We will keep our eyes open. We're watching.
We have no visual on anything beneath the aircraft.
Erik, we had a slight spike in the gammas there for a second.
-On your dosimeter? -Yep.
TRAVIS: It's back to normal now but it was a slight spike.
Wow. Okay.
CAMERON: Should be on point now for just exactly north, so...
-Got it. 12 o'clock. -12 o'clock?
ERIK: Got it.
I've got all the data points now for the radius.
CAMERON: All right, uh, Dragon.
We're all done here at 8,500.
We're moving on up to ten.
Okay. Copy that.
Keep an eye out for whatever that was underneath you.
I'll be curious to see if it shows up
when you're at 10,000 feet as well.
CAMERON: So, we're now climbing up to 10,000 feet.
(high-pitched beep)
TRAVIS: Yep, there it goes again, right there.
All right, so this is a video diary.
Uh, I'm seeing the radar on the helicopter.
-We're at 9,500 feet GPS. -CAMERON: Oh, there's 40 feet.
And there's something underneath us,
according to the radar at 40 feet.
-Showing right underneath.. -39-- it's like it's getting closer to us.
-TRAVIS: That's some... -(high-pitched beep)
CAMERON: It's picking up frequency as we are climbing too,
as we are approaching 10,000 feet.
Guys, I... I don't know if I feel so good about this.
-I don't know what's going on. -Yeah, there's something that's...
I don't feel good about something being under us,
39, 40 feet underneath us.
CAMERON: It's like it's following us, whatever it is.
That is weird, Cameron.
Have you ever seen something...
-No. -...chasing you like that?
-No. -And I'm again on the high end
-of the gamma readings. -TRAVIS: You are?
-Yeah. -You're getting gamma ray readings?
-(high-pitched beep) -Here it is again.
Guys, I feel like there's something underneath us,
something is tracking us.
TRAVIS: That's freaking me out a little bit.
-Yeah, and it's constant. -I mean, seriously, freaking me out.
(high-pitched beep)
-It's staying with us the whole time. -TRAVIS: It's following us.
Yeah, it's following us. I do a heading change,
and it's staying with us.
We're going 60 knots ground speed,
and it has not left us.
-Dude, I'm getting, like, chills from this. -Yeah, I...
Yeah, I mean, we're moving and something is following us.
I-I don't know that I feel that comfortable with this.
-I'd like to call an abort. -Yeah.
-Yeah, I-- Listen, I say we, I say we-we go to the ground. -Call it.
-Yeah. -Yeah. That's-that's insane.
CAMERON: Dragon, I'm not comfortable with having something
showing up right underneath the aircraft
and not knowing what it was.
Uh, we're going to abort this mission and come back
for safety's sake before we can get the rest of the readings
at 10,000 feet.
BRYANT: Copy that, yes. Please, come back safely.
We will wait to hear your report when you get on the ground.
Thanks, Cameron.
Uh-- Roger.
I don't have any indications that there's a source
of radiofrequency energy
at 5,000 feet above the ranch.
I don't have any support for the idea of a gamma ray source.
What I do have are unsettling indications
that we may not have been alone up there.
I don't know what to do with that.
I don't think any of us know what to do with that.
-Uh, interesting flight. -Oh, my goodness.
H-Have you ever seen anything like that
in all the time you've flown?
-No. -That's-- Me, either.
And I've flown as a payload scientist on Gulfstreams
and other aircraft, you know, looking at radar returns
and optical returns, things like that.
I have never seen anything follow
a vehicle like that, that were...
So, I feel like one of the first things I want to do
is I want to reach out to Brandon and inform him
-of these events. -Yeah.
ERIK: Cameron, I-I love to fly with you,
but I got to tell you, this is one of those times
when I was relieved to get back down on the ground.
CAMERON: Yeah. Yeah, me, too.
TRAVIS: Hey, Brandon. Are you there?
I'm with you. Hey, gentlemen.
-How are things going? -So we, uh,
had some really interesting events
just happen while we were in the helicopter.
I'm gonna let the pilot explain it first.
Well, we flew several circuits around the-the spot of interest,
changing altitudes and radius distances
away from-from the triangle, as we call it.
And as we gained in altitude, we had an anomaly
that I have no explanation for.
Uh, we had, uh, indications on our,
what's called the radar altimeter,
showing that there's something underneath us.
And it stayed with us to the point
that I wasn't comfortable with the mission anymore
and we aborted the flight.
So, an object was tracking with the helicopter right below you?
Well, the guys down on the ground were watching us
with binoculars and they never saw a physical object.
And we couldn't see it, you know, out the windows
in the bottom of the helicopter.
So, whatever it was
was invisible at least to the eye,
but apparently not to the radar.
That's crazy.
We changed headings, we changed altitudes,
but as we got higher and closer to the point of interest
at that altitude of 5,000 feet above the surface,
uh, which we never got to, it stayed constantly with us.
TRAVIS: It's like something was trying to tell us
don't go to that spot 5,000 feet above the ranch.
It-it really was like something was sc-- trying to scare us off.
That's nothing short of disturbing.
Again, yet another incredible experience
at Skinwalker Ranch.
I appreciate your efforts, appreciate your focus.
And, uh, I need to get out to the site.
I think it's important to pull everyone together,
to really talk about next steps
and how do we process all of this?
Right. Yep.
-Thank you, gentlemen. -CAMERON: Talk to you later.
TRAVIS: See you later.
TRAVIS: The cows, something's got the cows going nuts.
THOMAS: What the hell?
-Wow. -KANDUS: Is there something out there?
THOMAS: Something spooked them.
TRAVIS: The magnetic field is about twice
what it normally is.
Oh, it's increasing dramatically.
BRANDON: As I was flying into the ranch today,
I knew that Erik and Dragon had pulled together the team,
really, for the purpose of reflecting
and reporting on all of the events of the past few months.
Hey, good to see you, Tom.
What they have experienced,
what has been reported and, frankly, the data
points to some really extraordinary activity
that has never been seen before not only at Skinwalker Ranch,
but also anywhere else in the world.
Thank you for pulling everyone together,
and it's good to see our team assembled
for us to not only compare notes but to-to really talk about
next steps and how do we process all of this,
so we can focus on what we've been seeing
and how to best proceed.
-Right. -Yeah. Well,
you know, I'd like to hear more about what happened
with the helicopter, which has really disturbed me.
I'll bring up the first of your videos.
-TRAVIS: Okay. Yep. -And you can talk us through it.
So, yeah, here we go. Now if you'll--
-Pause it first, Erik. -Okay.
So, this is the bottom
left corner of the instrument panel.
This is the radar altitude to, uh, the ground.
This is to keep you from flying into a mountain
or to, uh, think you're too, uh,
you're higher than you are and to keep you from slamming
into the ground when you're landing.
So, your lives depend on the accuracy
-of this instrumentation. -Absolutely.
Absolutely. Especially if you're flying
and it's getting close to dark or if it's cloudy.
You've got to have this instrument working.
And I asked Cameron about it and he said
he's never had it malfunction.
Okay? So, now play the video.
Now this is showing us when it's working.
When you're under 2,000 feet, this thing
is supposed to kick on and say there's ground
2,000 feet below you or whatever it is.
And it's working right there.
Yeah, what I find useful about that is that, you know,
here we have a controlled case in which we see
that the instrument is not malfunctioning in general.
-It's doing its job. -Yeah.
So now play the video.
Now stop it.
At this point, we were at about
3,500 feet above the surface.
You see this number, we're getting 42 feet.
42 feet from a, from the surface.
-Wow. -The closest thing to us
was supposed to be 3,000 feet away,
and this is telling us there's something
underneath the helicopter
42 feet away.
Go ahead and play it the rest of the way, Erik.
And if you'll look, it's moving-- whatever it is,
it's between 45 and 50 feet, and then all--
and then it, then it goes away.
-BRANDON: Wow. -Where'd it go?
And then, as we moved closer to 5,000 feet,
at one point, it got to, uh, 39 feet from us.
And that's when Cameron finally said,
"All right, enough is enough, we're getting out of here."
So, we were watching the-the flight transponder data
because we were trying to map things out for you,
so it showed your altitude as well as anything
in the area and there was absolutely nothing there.
THOMAS: You know, we have seen a lot
of things-- uh, aerial phenomena-- this year.
-Yeah. -ERIK: Oh, yeah.
I'm still looking at some of the footage
and finding additional artifacts
in that, in the, in the video.
-Mm-hmm. -I see objects
a-appearing in the sky or glinting in the sky,
and there are more events of that kind
from the very same day.
-There are also... -Is this a rocket day?
-Is that what you're talking about? -That's correct.
-Okay. -So, we're talking about
things that appear in the sky
either to the south or to the west.
ALLEN: Ignition.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait, what's this, right here?
-What's this? What's this? -What's this?
TRAVIS: We got something, we got something!
Guys, we just had a UAP appear and vanish.
I'm just gonna let it play through.
I'm going to zoom in on it.
-BRANDON: Wow. -We've been revisiting some of our footage,
particularly from the day we launched the rockets,
and indeed we are seeing more than meets the eye.
Could I see some of the footage that you collected?
I-I think that's what Erik's pulling up now.
ERIK: Right, so,
I'm gonna take us to, uh, a time stamp
of 18:51:24 in this particular sequence,
and you're going to see a bright object that appears.
This is not one that we've, uh, talked about before.
-So... -BRYANT: I see it.
-KANDUS: Mm-hmm. -The object,
-the object is right here. -Yeah.
-TOM: Oh, yeah. -BRYANT: That's crazy.
-KANDUS: Wow. -ERIK: All right?
This is another one of those that appears and disappears.
There is no contrail.
Wow.
ERIK: And I think we found as many as 13
from the very same day
in this relatively small region of the sky.
-What? -We have at any time
as many as six persistent objects
and we have several other, you know, flashing,
fleeting events that are taking place.
These things that we're seeing just appear and then go away.
And we don't see them come in or go out.
They're just kind of there.
The fact that Erik has identified
these additional UAP that occurred
above the ranch when we launched the rockets,
shows just how important our experiments are out here.
We've now documented three different types of UAP:
these glowing orb-like ones...
...the one that streaked across the sky
earlier this year after we dug at Homestead Two
and then the darker flying objects.
One happened this year after we conducted
our Tesla coil experiment at the triangle area,
and the other appeared last year when the cow died.
Now, we don't know what these things are yet,
but clearly poking the nest has continued to yield great data.
ERIK: You know, we talk about things like craft, you know,
flying in at incredible speeds.
So, you know, the question I want to ask is,
is this evidence of that sort of thing?
-I don't know that I can answer that. -(cows bellowing)
BRYANT: Well, look at the cows.
TRAVIS: Hey, look, the cows. Something's got the cows going nuts.
Oh, my.
-Hey-- Look at that. -THOMAS: Oh, wow. -KANDUS: Holy sh...
TRAVIS: That's right where we dug that hole, too.
BRANDON: Whoa.
-This is crazy. -KANDUS: Yeah.
TRAVIS: Due west is due north right now.
That should be where north is pointing.
My compass is pointing that way.
Yeah, look at my north.
-Is yours off? -190 degrees.
So your compass reading is way off?
TRAVIS: There is a phenomena taking place right now.
-(cows bellowing) -TRAVIS: Look at the cows.
-Something's got the cows going nuts. -THOMAS: What the hell?
ERIK: We don't see that very often.
Wow. What the hell is going on?
THOMAS: Something spooked them.
What in the world is going on?
Do you have instrumentation with you?
BRYANT: Kaleb's got a TriField meter.
Okay.
When the cows suddenly stampeded away from the east field,
we couldn't tell what spooked them.
But it was at the same area where we detected
harmful gamma rays this year,
and also where the calf died last year, at the same time
we captured a UAP on our surveillance cameras.
-KALEB: What's going on there? -BRYANT: I don't know.
TRAVIS: That's really interesting.
The average magnetic field
is about twice what it normally is.
ERIK: What happens if you step right off the porch?
That's a good-good question.
I'm gonna walk towards the fence.
It increases.
Oh, it's increasing dramatically.
All right.
The magnetic field on the ranch was suddenly double
what it should be.
I-I just have no way,
scientifically, to explain what in nature could cause that.
BRYANT: That's crazy.
They were all piled up right in the corner,
then suddenly, boom, they took off running.
BRANDON: Are you picking up anything, Kaleb?
-Nothing. -Wow.
To kick up some dust, it was something.
-BRYANT: Yeah. -JIM: Oh, yeah.
So, Tom, Kandus,
you've been here 24-7, seven days a week...
-Right. -...here living in the ranch house and monitoring the cattle.
Have you seen them react that way?
-Never. -Nope.
-Never. -Not-not a single time.
You know, that area is interesting
because they congregate there,
and that's also where, you know,
there was some reported cattle mutilations.
And so we've been studying that area
and we have cameras down there.
Well, the cow that died suspiciously,
and that we're still studying,
-was not too far from here, just steps. -Yeah.
It was just up the fence line from there.
TRAVIS: That's right where we dug that hole, too, guys.
-KANDUS: Yes. -TOM: Mm-hmm.
Something's going on on this area of the ranch.
It's a site where people have witnessed orbs
and craft, and this is where Kris Porritt pointed out
a cattle mutilation and told us the really strange story.
All the female organs were removed out of both cows.
I can't explain it.
And there was matted grass where something heavy
had sat in these weeds and made an impression.
I presume
that it was a-a spaceship.
We all thought Sheriff Porritt's story was crazy,
but then, we took a closer look at the area
and it led to a really bizarre discovery.
-Y'all see it? -KANDUS: I do.
It is a perfect circle right here.
-Well, let's dig through the middle of it. -All right.
So, let's start digging.
So we brought on a mini-excavator.
-I'd say that's good enough. -And we started to dig
into the spot where Kris pointed out in the ground.
-Look at that. -Yeah.
TRAVIS: It's literally pushing it away.
The ground is really magnetic right there.
THOMAS: It seems to be something
about the ground here at Skinwalker Ranch,
that is at least in contributing to part
to some of the strange things that we're witnessing.
-TOM: Now they're going back. -TRAVIS: Yeah, look at that.
Hey, hey, guys, this is important right here.
Look at that.
Due west is-is due north right now.
So, I mean, that should be where north is pointing.
My compass is pointing that way.
BRANDON: So your compass reading is way off.
-TRAVIS: 90 degrees off. -BRYANT: Yeah. Look at my north.
-Is yours off? -190 degrees.
This is an old-school compass.
TRAVIS: There is a phenomena taking place right now.
So, it's not just affecting your smartphone
and the electronics, but it's affecting
-the analog instrument as well. -Yeah, see, look.
So, north is that way
and it's pointing south.
-BRANDON: This is crazy. -KANDUS: Yeah.
Three weeks ago,
the same kind of strange magnetic shift happened
when we drilled at the triangle area.
That is odd right there, dude.
There is an extraneous magnetic field right here
messing my compass up.
Magnetic north has been shifted by about five degrees.
It's showing north is that way.
It's pointing toward where they're drilling.
KALEB: Holy crap.
TRAVIS: This kind of interference is becoming
more and more common on the ranch,
so I wonder if there could be something connected
to the triangle area that keeps causing
this magnetic phenomenon to occur.
BRANDON: What are you picking up, Erik?
So, I've got eyes on the herd.
I've been scanning the area along the fence lines
and I don't see anything.
-You know, this... -So, nothing visually showed up
-that would create that disturbance? -No.
-BRANDON: Okay. This is crazy. -BRYANT: Well, Brandon,
we're anxious to get back to showing you the rest of it.
Well, let's go back and reconvene.
-Yeah. -JIM: Okay.
BRANDON: We saw strange
electromagnetic anomalies
coupled with camera surveillance and instruments
that are taking readings and recording with hard data
the reality of the anomalies that are occurring on
the property, really all combine to tell us
that what we are dealing with at Skinwalker Ranch
is absolute reality.
It seems like the deeper we dig,
both figuratively and literally, the more we scratch our heads,
and the more we seem to be baffled by what we're observing.
-Yeah. -For example,
I don't think that the rabbi
had any idea what he was dealing with...
-No. No. -...before he came onto the property.
(reciting prayer in Hebrew)
TRAVIS: In a bold attempt to stimulate
the legendary portal phenomena at Homestead Two,
I invited Rabbi Ariel Tzadok to come perform
an ancient Hebrew ceremony.
What happened next was incredible.
Suddenly the treetops are super warm
and everything underneath it got super cool.
Look right here.
It's creating this cold vortex in the middle.
We measured a temperature vortex
that dropped by more than 20 degrees.
That's usually indicative of a presence.
These entities are always described as being very cold.
Why does this location
continue to exhibit phenomena and activity
that, frankly, you don't see anywhere else on the planet?
At least in such concentrated form.
Right.
You know, perhaps our investigation is a testament
that we are seeing, truly, something extraordinary
both above and below the ranch.
TRAVIS: Well, I've been thinking about
the Uinta Basin here, the ranch, what it looks like,
and why weird stuff is happening here.
-Okay. -Well, I do have a theory.
I want to make sure that we're all prepared to face the risks.
Maybe we should take a step back, or do we forge ahead?
Well, it does feel like we've reached a crossroads.
-Right. -I do think there's some decisions to make.
TRAIVS: I've been thinking about the Uinta Basin
and why weird stuff is happening here.
Now, this is a heat map
of asteroid impacts on the planet over millions of years.
My goal on Skinwalker Ranch has always been to apply
the scientific method to study the phenomena that happens here.
Well, what occurred during Rabbi Tzadok's visit this year
led me to an intriguing hypothesis.
Scientists have documented numerous times
when massive asteroids have struck the Earth...
...such as the one that's believed to have
wiped out the dinosaurs
about 66 million years ago.
And if you'll look at this ginormous asteroid impact,
the epicenter is right on top of us,
right where we're sitting.
And that happened ten million years ago.
-KANDUS: Hmm. Wow. -I find that interesting.
TRAVIS: All right, now, go to the next slide, Erik.
So, this is a-a view if you're looking
at the Uinta Basin from the south and looking due north.
Now, this bottom graph shows the topography,
and if you measure across the bowl,
you get a very parabolic shape that we noticed before
at other big sites around the world.
So, this, if you look at these sites around the world,
the geology, it looks like
the exact same kind of bowl structure.
And guess what happened at these sites?
Asteroid impacts.
-Wow. -Now, what really intrigues me
as a scientist
is that some of these asteroid impact events,
as they're known, not only happened here
where Skinwalker Ranch is,
but also in other locations around the world
where strange things are believed by some
to have taken place.
Well, Erik, go to the next slide.
Look at this spot.
Now, this is in, uh, what we would call
modern-day Iraq,
uh, and right there in the center,
a couple thousand years ago was called Babylon.
And, uh, guess what happened right about there,
according to the stories in the Book of Ezekiel?
According to the Old Testament of the Bible,
the prophet Ezekiel claimed to have witnessed the sky open up
and clouds with flashes of light appear before him.
And then it's written that he saw a ball of fire,
glowing like bronze.
Well, that sounds very much like the phenomena
we've seen and documented
on multiple occasions right here on Skinwalker Ranch
over the last two years.
So, Ezekiel is there, and suddenly, he sees
this thing coming in
on a pillar of smoke and flame, uh, toward him.
And he describes it as having four wheels within wheels
around it and-and each of them had the likeness of an angel
that moved so fast he couldn't tell if-- which angel was which.
Oh, wow.
TRAVIS: I find that really interesting that we have locations
that look almost identical in geological
and physical structure,
and they had these unusual things occurring there.
Many people believe that what is written in the Bible
are merely just stories that were passed down
through the generations.
But what if we are actually documenting evidence
here on Skinwalker Ranch that gives possible credence
to some of these stories?
No matter what the case is, we still have to figure out,
utilizing the scientific method, just what it is
that we're actually encountering here.
-That's good stuff, Travis. -KANDUS: Yeah.
-That's-that's really interesting. -It's incredible.
BRYANT: And I can't help but think,
you know, you described what you just did
about this dome-shaped thing and how he said
it was God and these were angels and things.
Well, that was what they had in their knowledge base
to interpret things as, right?
-Yep. -It's not, it's not unlike what we've heard
with the Native Americans in this area.
They didn't have the whole modern-day technology narrative
that we do, so, you know, could he be describing something
that, in this day and age, we would call a craft or a UFO?
-Right. -So I-I find that really interesting.
KALEB: Obviously, the question is,
what-what are we really looking for?
'Cause I think we-- it's fair to say
that we've proven that there is some kind of entity
or spirit or intelligence out here
that we've had more and more interactions with.
BRANDON: Yes,
and I-I would love to continue
the next phase of the investigation.
But I want to make sure that we're all prepared
to face the risks.
Well, it does feel like we've reached a crossroads.
I mean, we've-we've hit a point
that I-I do think there are some decisions to make
as to how we move forward or...
you know, what that looks like.
BRANDON: We have to ask ourselves...
...what can of worms,
what portal are we opening?
Maybe we should take a step back,
or do we forge ahead?
BRANDON: Maybe we should take a step back,
or do we forge ahead?
My personal, uh, opinion
is that fortune favors the bold.
-That's right. -Yeah, absolutely.
TRAVIS: We might have an opportunity here
to learn something that humanity hasn't been shown before,
and it seems to be responding to things
we're doing more now than ever.
Maybe we're getting close to, if not finding an answer,
at least finding a pathway to the answer.
So, if we are to continue, I'd like to hear,
you know, what you'd propose the best course or path may be.
TRAVIS: It would be great to get an aerostat
or-or a blimp that we could station
above the triangle spot with lots of instruments,
and leave it in that location
for a considerable amount of time.
And I don't mean seconds. I-I mean,
hours or days, maybe even, uh, you know, weeks.
And-and if it's a-a vehicle that can come up and down
and we can actually physically go up with it
and do some experimentation for over periods of time,
-we need to think about that. -Well, I'd like to also engage
the intelligence community, or-or people
that really have been involved with monitoring
not only the airspace over our country, but over our planet.
Because I-I don't believe for one second
that a lot of what we're observing here
has gone unnoticed.
-Mm. -I think we truly are,
sitting at this table, pioneers,
at a time when we see
the emerging private space race
reaching for the next frontier.
You know, planetary exploration.
I think there's a good chance
that there are areas right here in our own backyard
that are worthy of investigation,
and they could probably provide even more insight
into the nature of our universe
and whether we're alone or not.
Brandon's right about all the new exploration
being conducted in space,
but it's even more than that.
Look at all the videos of UAP that our own government
-has acknowledged. -PILOT: Look at that thing.
TRAVIS: There's new disclosures on these phenomena
coming out all the time now.
And when you compare them to what we've seen ourselves
on Skinwalker Ranch,
it's made me convinced
that we have the perfect laboratory
for studying these phenomena
and figuring out what they really are.
I am talking to some folks that have a small satellite
that can use a ground-penetrating technology
and look as far as two kilometers
underneath the surface here,
and I'm hoping that they will be willing to take data
over the ranch as it passes over,
'cause they did tell me
that they will have flyovers of the ranch.
Wow. That's-that's next level...
-That's exciting, yeah. -...stuff.
But that's something we can't do on a whim.
That's gonna take preparation.
At the end of the day, we all have a personal choice to make.
This isn't gonna be something that we figure out
in six months or a year.
This is something that is gonna take time.
We've done so much, in just the two years
that we've been here, but you-- as we can see,
we have so much more to do.
-You want to know. -I want to know.
I want to know.
And I feel that we're gonna find that out.
Well, with that, I want to thank everyone
for your sacrifice,
the time, all of the attention,
the dedication that you've had to this project
and this investigation,
in service to the truth
-and really understanding... -Thanks for trusting us.
Yeah, thanks for inviting us to do it.
-It's amazing. -BRANDON: Well,
thank you all and, uh, we'll, uh...
we'll make that a wrap for now.
-KANDUS: Thank you. -Thank you. -Thanks, Brandon.
Brandon, appreciate it.
-Thank you. -Thank you very much.
Thanks, guys. Dragon, love you, buddy.
Love you, too.
ERIK: I've got a lot of questions that have yet to be answered.
-Pleasure and honor. -Yeah, man.
ERIK: Not only would I say that
we don't have all the answers, not by a long shot,
but I'm not even sure that we have all the methodologies
for getting those answers yet in place here.
So, I'm nowhere near being finished with my work here.
Tom, Godspeed, brother.
THOMAS: When we reconvene this investigation next summer,
we got to figure out what's above us.
We got to figure out what's at that 5,000-foot mark,
and somehow, we have got to start better understanding
what's going on below us, below ground.
KANDUS: We're putting a puzzle together here.
It's been a puzzle, it's still a puzzle,
and it's an ongoing process.
TOM: This really could be just the tip of the iceberg.
There could be a lot of information that could
blow the doors off our investigation.
Y'all stay safe, tell your families I said hey.
-All right. Safe travels. -All right, man.
BRYANT: It has been a long and exhausting summer,
but it's also been amazing.
This place is dangerous and it's special.
We have things that we're looking into
that could give us answers to questions
that have been asked for eternity,
and we are all dedicated to do whatever it takes
to further this investigation.
And I'm looking forward to what the future brings for us.
TRAVIS: As I'm driving off the ranch and I'm watching it fade away
in the rearview mirror, I'm looking back
on all the amazing things we uncovered,
but I'm also looking forward to the next cycle
of this investigation.
What else are we gonna find in the future?
What crazy things, what exciting things
are still left to be uncovered here at Skinwalker Ranch?
It might change the world.
BRANDON: As we contemplate the future at Skinwalker Ranch,
we all carefully consider the gravity
of what lies ahead and what we may yet reveal.
I think having the courage to not only
take that step into the darkness,
but also having the willingness to reveal that which we discover
is something very special and unprecedented,
and we look forward to helping the public
take that journey along with us.
