He's hallucinating. 174 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,000 His diary blamed this on eating wild potato seeds. 175 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,000 Within a few days, he was seriously ill. 176 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:48,000 By now, Chris McCannless was too ill to hunt food, which he needed to survive. 177 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,000 He's starving. 178 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,000 He's too weak to escape. 179 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,000 And no one even knows that he's there. 180 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,000 He essentially starved to death. 181 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:15,000 It's really sad and it's a really strange story and it's very mysterious. 182 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:22,000 And there have been other mystifying tragedies in the region. 183 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:32,000 Experts believe Alaska's close proximity to the North Pole causes strange electromagnetic forces here. 184 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:38,000 Some who've entered the Triangle have suddenly become incapacitated. 185 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:47,000 It's likely that they have been disoriented by the bizarre electromagnetic forces around the Triangle. 186 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:55,000 These forces can do strange things to the mind, confusing people, even causing them to sleepwalk to their own deaths. 187 00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:07,000 These strange electromagnetic forces cause planes to fall out of the sky when their instruments just inexplicably fail. 188 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:19,000 What if there was an equivalent form of disorientation happening to humans that was causing them to get lost and ultimately to lose their lives? 189 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:26,000 Could a human hand be playing a part in these powerful disorienting forces? 190 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:37,000 In the center of the Triangle lies a mysterious research lab pumping high-voltage energy into the atmosphere. 191 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,000 It's rumored to play havoc with the weather and also the mind. 192 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:49,000 The idea that mind and emotions can be manipulated is a fact. This is the beginning of the end. 193 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:59,000 On November 30th, 2018, a major earthquake with a magnitude of seven hit Alaska just north of Anchorage. 194 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:06,000 It's one of the worst ever to strike the region. A state of emergency is declared. 195 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,000 But researcher Johnny Enoch doubts this was a freak force of nature. 196 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:19,000 The Alaska Triangle seems to attract strange weather events, none more catastrophic than earthquakes. 197 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:30,000 Over a hundred Alaskans were injured and nearly $30 million worth of damage was caused when the 2018 earthquake hit Alaska. 198 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:38,000 Some scientists have linked earthquakes to extreme weather and changes in the atmosphere. 199 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:47,000 And on average, a serious earthquake has occurred here every year since 1993. 200 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:55,000 This was also the year its mysterious meteorological research facility was built, HARP. 201 00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:07,000 A lot of people think that because Alaska is home to HARP, that this could be the reason for all the strange anomalous weather patterns we find there. 202 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:16,000 The High Frequency Active Aurora Research Program, or HARP, is based near Gokona in the southern end of the Triangle. 203 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:23,000 It's stated mission to study the Earth's upper atmosphere. 204 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:30,000 180 giant antennas are used for this research. 205 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:38,000 But some investigators like Jerry Glover believe its real purpose could be to manipulate the weather. 206 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:48,000 Maybe the HARP program has harmonized with or activated something to do with the weather in the Triangle. 207 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:57,000 Maybe this has whipped up forces that has caused people and aircraft to disappear. There's always this possibility. 208 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:05,000 Anchorage base Dr. Nick Begich has been following the work of HARP since it began. 209 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,000 He's concerned that this technology could be used as a means of warfare. 210 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:20,000 The idea of changing the weather or altering jet streams is one of the primary concerns that I've had from the beginning of the project. 211 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:26,000 Learning how to manipulate weather for weapons applications is one of the uses of HARP. 212 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:38,000 Although Nick's views are disputed by HARP, he believes their giant antennas are pumping huge amounts of electrical energy into the skies. 213 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:50,000 As a means of controlling the ionosphere, the thin layer of atmosphere that stretches from 50 miles above the Earth's surface right up to the edge of space. 214 00:20:54,000 --> 00:21:02,000 These antennas fire radiofrequency energy in a very unique way. Instead of spreading out very rapidly from the source, it does the opposite. 215 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,000 It concentrates the energy. The energy is powerful and strong. 216 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:14,000 Nick and other researchers believe these antennas are heating the atmosphere above, and this can destabilize the weather. 217 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:21,000 It alters pressure systems, alters the flow of jet streams and changes the weather in that relative area. 218 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:29,000 And some believe heating the Earth's atmosphere could whip up extreme weather events, such as a tornado. 219 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:36,000 You have a warm front coming into a cold front. They run into each other. You get a shearing action. You get a tornado. 220 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:44,000 If you could heat up the cold front sufficiently when these two collided, you wouldn't get that tornado formation. 221 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,000 Or conversely, if you fed the heated front, you might get a more intense tornado. 222 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:56,000 But there are even more sinister claims about Alaska's controversial research station. 223 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:05,000 Not only may it be able to alter the weather, but some claim Harp's electromagnetic waves could be used to manipulate our minds. 224 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:17,000 I think it's very plausible that Harp and similar psychotronic weapons could be used to disorient people and cause strange weather patterns. 225 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:31,000 Dr. Begich has been investigating how the use of ELF, extremely low-frequency electromagnetic energy, could be used by Harp as a means of controlling the population. 226 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:44,000 What Harp has the ability to do is affect emotional states over huge geographic areas, utilizing electromagnetic signals, such as what Harp produces, within a certain range. 227 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:53,000 That would create a general sense of dis-ease, for instance, in a population, and then you could move a population a certain direction. 228 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:59,000 The U.S. government has a history of state-sponsored mind control. 229 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:14,000 Its top-secret MK-ALTRA program that started in 1953 used a web of hospitals, prisons, colleges, and universities to carry out experiments on unwitting human subjects. 230 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:23,000 MK-ALTRA was a project initiated by the Central Intelligence Agency back in the 1950s and 60s. 231 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:36,000 This was mind control. Fundamentally, it was testing LSD, electromagnetics, everything under the sun to see if you could modify people's behavior, and they succeeded in many, many ways. 232 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:43,000 We don't know for certain, but maybe the Harp Research Project has that aspect to it as well. 233 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:54,000 Some kind of experiment to influence people, or maybe tap into forces that we don't yet understand that are at work in the Alaska Triangle. 234 00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:01,000 But in 2015, Harp was taken over by the University of Alaska. 235 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:08,000 It opened its doors to the public, declaring it's not capable of mind control or weather control. 236 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:19,000 In fact, Harp says the frequency range of the radio waves it transmits cannot even interact with the levels of the atmosphere that produce Earth's weather. 237 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:27,000 Nick Begich, however, is not convinced, believing Harp remains a threat to fellow Alaskans. 238 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:37,000 This is the beginning of the end for me. The idea of interfering with human consciousness is a violation of the essence of who we are as human beings. 239 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:45,000 Harp's purpose is still open to debate, and it remains controversial. 240 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:56,000 In a place that's as infamous for paranormal activity as the Alaska Triangle, even the roads running through it are said to be haunted. 241 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:04,000 I felt so in danger, and I just floored it. 242 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:13,000 From unexplained phantom headlights to spirits stalking its bridges, she sees a man right in front of her. 243 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,000 Scares the living daylights out of her. 244 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,000 Investigators have now found compelling evidence. 245 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:25,000 I just caught something right there. That was crazy. 246 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,000 Of entities that haunt the roadside. 247 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,000 I've never seen anything like this before. 248 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:49,000 Over 36,000 miles of road stretches across Alaska, connecting the most sparsely populated areas of the Triangle. 249 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:57,000 The remoteness of Alaska's freeways therefore makes them an ideal draw for spiritual activity. 250 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:03,000 Paranormal investigator Jeff Richards has been studying these haunted highways. 251 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:10,000 Haunted roads are all over the state of Alaska. 252 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:15,000 Perhaps a tragedy maybe occurred and it's left a mark on that highway. 253 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:24,000 Or are they more likely to be drawing in spirit because they are these very commonly used transitional spaces for the living. 254 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:31,000 We travel highways so it's nothing out of the ordinary to imagine that spirits travel those same highways. 255 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,000 They travel alongside us. 256 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:41,000 Drivers across this remote region have told of strange incidents on Alaska's roads. 257 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:47,000 One such case was recently reported in Glen Allen in the south of the Triangle. 258 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:55,000 Ellen Viterra was driving on a remote highway near her home in 2017. 259 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:03,000 It was between 11 and 12 and I was driving home. It was pitch black. 260 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:12,000 As I was driving headlights had come over the hill. 261 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:21,000 The vehicle was approaching me and I just I felt this sensation of slowing down. 262 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:32,000 My foot stopped compressing the gas and I just kind of stared into the light and it just got closer and closer. 263 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,000 They were the oranges headlights I had ever seen. 264 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,000 The hair on the back of my neck stood up. 265 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:49,000 I got really scared and it was like in that moment time slowed down. 266 00:27:52,000 --> 00:28:01,000 As it drove by I realized that I could see the headlights at the same time as the brake lights as if there was no car in between it. 267 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:09,000 All of a sudden this massive influx of fire flight kicked in and my mind screamed run. 268 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:16,000 And I just floored it just trying to get away and I kept looking back to see if it was following me. 269 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:23,000 I was so scared in that moment. I felt in so in danger. 270 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:32,000 Whatever this entity was as I drove away from it it turned left and disappeared onto a road that doesn't exist. 271 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:43,000 Luckily Ellen escaped unscathed but trying to work out what she witnessed that night is a mystery that still troubles her. 272 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:50,000 Many accidents happen on this road so it could be just a specter. 273 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,000 You know a ghost we call them ghost cars. 274 00:28:55,000 --> 00:29:04,000 It was too much honestly even thinking back is kind of hard. 275 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,000 Phantom headlights have been reported by many locals. 276 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:18,000 One case occurred recently in Fairbanks in the middle of the triangle. 277 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:25,000 Christina Gumm had an unexplained sighting on a road on her way home from work. 278 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:37,000 It was about six seven o'clock-ish. I just got some gas because I was low on gas and I was heading towards home and I was kind of daydreaming kind of you know. 279 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:55,000 And I noticed out of the corner of my eye some lights up in the hill. I kind of watched it for a second but I noticed pretty quickly they flashed and disappeared which I thought was kind of strange. 280 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:07,000 These Phantom headlights had appeared by the local cemetery but the road there was impassable due to heavy snow. 281 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,000 So how could a vehicle have got there? 282 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,000 Christina went to investigate. 283 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:24,000 I stopped and kind of looked around a little kind of stuck my head out the door but I didn't hear anything. 284 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:31,000 So I was like maybe I'll come a little closer in the cemetery but there was like no tracks. 285 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:36,000 There was no signs of anyone really that's been up here for a good couple of weeks. 286 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,000 So it was like okay I'm officially spooked. 287 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,000 Christina came to one unsettling conclusion. 288 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:53,000 I automatically assumed that this was like a ghost or something. It kind of scared me a little. 289 00:30:54,000 --> 00:31:01,000 There is a couple of people that have been killed up here by vehicles. So it was like well what if it was one of their people reliving their past. 290 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:08,000 And Christina is not the only Fairbanks resident to experience these ghostly phenomena on local roads. 291 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:18,000 Just north of the city in January 2016 one woman recorded this on the street outside her home. 292 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:22,000 Jeff Richards has been analyzing this extraordinary roadside evidence. 293 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:31,000 We see these streaks of light moving through the video at various points at high velocity. 294 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:39,000 A lot of orb videos can be debunked as simply being a video of a person walking on the road. 295 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:43,000 And I've never seen anything like this before. It's a remarkable video. 296 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:50,000 The remoteness of Alaska's freeways makes them an icon of the world. 297 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:55,000 And I think that's the most important thing that we see in the world. 298 00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:00,000 And I think that's the most important thing that we see in the world. 299 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:05,000 And I think that's the most important thing that we see in the world. 300 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:11,000 The remoteness of Alaska's freeways makes them an ideal draw for spiritual activity. 301 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:20,000 The state has a rich history of gold prospectors passing through it to seek their fortune, but ending their days here penniless. 302 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:28,000 Paranormal investigator Mike Cook has been researching roadside ghost sightings connected to the region's past. 303 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:41,000 There's been a lot of gold mine collapses or copper mines or, you know, a lot of the miners went out and they just weren't adequately dressed. 304 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:46,000 They would catch pneumonia, they would die and they were just stuck in that place. 305 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:54,000 One woman recently reported a gold rush ghost sighting just outside of Anchorage in the south of the triangle. 306 00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:03,000 It was 3 a.m. on a cold winter's night as she crossed Briggs Bridge over Eagle River. 307 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,000 She was touring Alaska, she was in her RV. 308 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,000 She comes around the corner on this bridge. 309 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:18,000 She looks up and sees a man right in front of her. 310 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,000 Scares the living daylights out of her. 311 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:37,000 So she puts on the brakes and then right in front of her eyes, he disappears. Just gone. She gets out. 312 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:46,000 And she's looking for his footprints in this freshly laid snow. And there's no footprints. 313 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:52,000 But it was the apparitions appearance that most spooked the driver. 314 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:59,000 According to the report, he had this very old look to him. Maybe a gold panor. 315 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:11,000 You could have died in Eagle River right around this bridge. A lot of the miners were moving north and so they could have easily stayed somewhere along this area. 316 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:17,000 So her story of it looked like an old miner could be very plausible. 317 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:26,000 Today, Mike's made his way to Briggs Bridge where he plans to carry out an overnight investigation. 318 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:39,000 I'm going to take a look around. I want to see this road. I want to see where I can possibly put my cameras, at what angles are going to be good to possibly catch whatever spirit or entity that was seen by this lady. 319 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:58,000 Mike begins setting up his CCTV in the cold sub-zero Alaskan temperatures. 320 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:05,000 This one actually has a mic on it. So hopefully spirit will say something. We'll pick it up. 321 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:14,000 Nearby, Mike's based his mobile command center. Here, he can record and monitor any paranormal activity. 322 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:19,000 I'm hoping that I can catch an entity walking across this bridge up here. 323 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:28,000 All set, Mike heads out onto the haunted bridge armed with his ghost hunting equipment. 324 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:41,000 This is the spirit box. It scans multiple radio frequencies and it said that spirits can talk through the white noise of these radios. 325 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:49,000 And then the REM pod hopefully will detect some energy here. We'll do a quick reading here. Set it up right here. 326 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:57,000 If electromagnetic energy increases, the device lights up, suggesting a spirit is present. 327 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:03,000 Is there any spirits on this bridge or underneath? Is there a man out here, an old man? 328 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:17,000 Oh, did you see that? The lights are flickering. Is that you? Oh, look at that. That's even stronger. 329 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:23,000 Perhaps this is the old miner. Mike reaches out with his spirit box. 330 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:36,000 I did hear something right there. It was very, very faint. Were you trying to communicate? 331 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:44,000 I couldn't really hear what it said, but I did record it, so I'm going to go back to the command center, try and replay it, see if I can grasp anything out of it. 332 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:51,000 Mike heads back to process the electronic voice phenomenon, or EVP, he's just captured. 333 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:56,000 So this is recorded at the very end of the bridge. 334 00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:05,000 I definitely hear a buh at the end, but I can't make out what the beginning is. At first I thought it said you could see us. 335 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:12,000 It's pretty interesting. Sounds like a male figure. 336 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:19,000 To find out who this is, I'm going to go back to the command center. 337 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:23,000 It's pretty interesting. Sounds like a male figure. 338 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:31,000 To find out who this spirit could be, Mike heads back out for clues underneath the haunted bridge. 339 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:46,000 I want to see if there's anything going on underneath. There have been reports of some graffiti, satanic symbols, and then there was a death that happened on this road just two months ago. 340 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:51,000 So, hoping that if anything happens it will show up underneath the bridge. 341 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:59,000 Oh, jeez, what a couple of ravens. They scared the crap out of me. 342 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:04,000 Once again, Mike starts his spirit box. 343 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:11,000 Is there anybody under the bridge? Is there any spirits here? Did you die in this area? 344 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:20,000 For Gold Rush ghosts, nowhere else is more fitting. In summertime, Eagle River could be panned by many seeking riches. 345 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:28,000 This river is completely frozen, so we're going to cross the river, go to the other side and see if we can't pick up something. 346 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:33,000 Is there anybody out here? What am I got myself into? 347 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,000 What am I got myself into? 348 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,000 Is there any spirits here? Any entities? 349 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:56,000 I thought I just saw some movement up there. I saw some kind of light move from right to left over there by that wall. 350 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,000 Are you around here? 351 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:13,000 I just caught something right there. That was crazy. That sounded like a howl or a growl. 352 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,000 It looks right here at the very end. 353 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:30,000 Yeah, it's there. It doesn't say anything, it's just a, ooh, but that could be a spirit trying to use the box and come through. 354 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:37,000 And then, what else is weird, this camera was just charged before I came down here. Fresh battery, and now it's dead. 355 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:46,000 So, probably drained the camera battery to manifest in some sort and come through my spirit box. 356 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:55,000 Mike returns to his control center to check out this second electronic voice phenomenon. 357 00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:07,000 There, there, that. That is a howl. That is crazy. 358 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:16,000 We caught both EVPs from the same side, the north side of the bridge. So, it tells me that there's something there. 359 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,000 Mike's investigation will continue. 360 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:29,000 The mystery is still open. Still could use some further investigation, definitely for sure. There's something out there. 361 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,000 There's something out there. 362 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:44,000 The spirits haunting Alaska's roads have not shown themselves tonight, but there's growing evidence that they exist. 363 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:53,000 The triangle continues to mystify those brave enough to try and unlock its secrets. 364 00:40:55,000 --> 00:41:03,000 But one thing is certain, this place will never stop striking awe and fear amongst those who dare enter it.
