1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
Every action is being monitored.

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,000
There are millions and millions of cameras everywhere you go.

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Every conversation is recorded.

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:17,000
Cell phones are actually sending information about who we're communicating with on a daily basis.

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,000
And every secret is exposed.

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,000
We are headed into this direction where, with a stroke of a key,

7
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:30,000
you can figure out anything you want about a person.

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:41,000
As technology advances, information about everything and everyone is becoming more accessible than ever before.

9
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:50,000
But in this age of unlimited access, should we be asking not only who is watching us, but from where?

10
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:56,000
These watchers who are extraterrestrials were all over the Earth in ancient times.

11
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,000
Watching people on Earth, watching civilization grow.

12
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,000
And you have to wonder, isn't this still happening today?

13
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:12,000
Millions of people around the world believe we have been visited in the past by extraterrestrial beings.

14
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,000
What if it were true?

15
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,000
Did ancient aliens really help to shape our history?

16
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:24,000
And if so, might they be among us today?

17
00:01:45,000 --> 00:02:00,000
June 5, 2013.

18
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:10,000
The British Daily newspaper, The Guardian, reveals that classified documents from the United States National Security Agency have been leaked.

19
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:23,000
Among them is an order from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, requiring Verizon to hand over metadata from millions of Americans' phone calls to the FBI and NSA.

20
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Four days later, Edward Snowden, a former cybersecurity expert for the Central Intelligence Agency, comes forward to identify himself as the source of the leak.

21
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:44,000
When asked to explain his actions, Snowden states, I can get your emails, passwords, phone records, credit cards.

22
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:52,000
I do not want to live in a world where everything I do and say is recorded.

23
00:02:52,000 --> 00:03:03,000
The NSA is the National Security Agency or as some people call it, the National Spying Agency, which is in control of monitoring the communication systems throughout the world.

24
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:13,000
Every form of electronic communication supposedly for the purposes of national security to identify and neutralize any threats to America.

25
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:27,000
One of the documents that Edward Snowden released was about a project Mystic, which has the capability to record the actual audio of every conversation in an entire country, if not the plant.

26
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:36,000
Technology is really interesting as it enhances our life in so many ways, but with each of those enhancements, there's also something potentially taken away depending on how you see it.

27
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:45,000
For example, our privacy is changing or is actually getting reduced almost daily.

28
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:54,000
We've never experienced a society where there are so many microphones, millions and millions of cameras everywhere you go.

29
00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:00,000
We are moving our entire lives into what is known as the cloud.

30
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:08,000
We are headed into this direction where with a stroke of a key, you can figure out anything you want about a person.

31
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:23,000
As technology continues to advance at an ever increasing rate, we gain greater access to information both from and about each other, becoming interconnected unlike any other time in our history.

32
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:35,000
There are those who believe that this evolution of technology is not entirely of our own making, but that we have been guided by visitors that first came to worth thousands of years ago.

33
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:55,000
From the perspective that I look at it all is that a long time ago, extraterrestrials provided the basic tools, the basic knowledge with the idea that ultimately we would turn or become the society that we are today.

34
00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:03,000
So is it possible that we are still being observed? And the answer is a resounding yes.

35
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:21,000
Ancient astronaut theorists contend that it is by extraterrestrial design that we have become so technologically interconnected and that we are being watched not only by agencies of the government, but by beings from beyond our world.

36
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:36,000
They also claim that they set us on this course in the ancient past and that we can find evidence of their existence in the stories of a group of ancient aliens known as the Watchers.

37
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:47,000
In the fourth chapter of the Hebrew Bible's Book of Daniel, the Watchers are described as a group of divine overseers, later associated with angels.

38
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:58,000
The Watchers are essentially messengers and so this is why many scholars understand the Watchers to be a class of angels since angels were understood to be messengers in the Bible.

39
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:08,000
They're tasked with managing the earth and watching over humans. And some of these are said to be good Watchers, they do their jobs dutifully.

40
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:21,000
I and others are said to be bad Watchers. It is said about the Watchers that nothing happens on earth that is not ordained by their hand and executed by their agents.

41
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Who are they? What are they? Well, Daniel doesn't necessarily go into greater detail, but there were numerous other texts that teach more about that which is recorded in the biblical books.

42
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,000
One of the most famous, of course, is the Book of Enoch.

43
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:54,000
The Book of Enoch containing the first-hand account of the great grandfather of Noah was stricken from the Bible's Old Testament at the Council of Laodicea in the fourth century AD.

44
00:06:54,000 --> 00:07:07,000
In the third book of this apocryphal text, Enoch says an angel known as a Watcher took him aboard a fiery chariot that ascended to heaven.

45
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:15,000
Enoch is brought up into outer space, into heaven.

46
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:37,000
It's fascinatingly detailed and the reports of crystal walls with light coming out of them and crystal rooms sounds like someone with primitive language skills trying to explain going into a super high fidelity science fiction reality.

47
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:51,000
In many ways, when you read the Book of Enoch, he is an abductee by extraterrestrials and they're taking him into a spaceship, they're showing him the earth, they're giving him special instructions.

48
00:07:51,000 --> 00:08:00,000
The Book of Enoch also states that 200 Watchers descended to earth to oversee humankind and aid in our advancement.

49
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:11,000
The Watchers were said to have taught mankind many different arts and sciences that had previously only been known to the angels of heaven.

50
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:19,000
And these included astronomy, metrology, the use of weapons.

51
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:32,000
Enoch is talking about flesh and blood beings who came, saw potential for mankind and imparted knowledge. Those are who the Watchers were.

52
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:42,000
Could it be that the Watchers described in the Book of Enoch are extraterrestrials that came to earth and taught early humans in the distant past?

53
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:50,000
Did they plant the seeds of knowledge that would lead us to this point in our technological evolution?

54
00:08:50,000 --> 00:09:00,000
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes and suggest that evidence for this can be found in every corner of the world.

55
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:11,000
Around the world we find stories that are strikingly similar to that of the Watchers coming to earth and giving humanity forbidden knowledge, especially the secrets of heaven.

56
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:23,000
Inca legend states that the god Viracosha created humans and taught them astronomy, agriculture and other advanced arts.

57
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:33,000
The Maya civilization believed their supreme god Kukukon taught humans writing, mathematics and science.

58
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:46,000
And in ancient Chinese legend, the divine ruler Huang Di introduced numerous advancements such as the wheel, weaving and writing.

59
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:56,000
In Egypt you have the goddess Cyrus revealing the wisdom to mortal kind on how they could construct civilization.

60
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:10,000
And you find this again and again within the Eurasian continent in Africa, but also obviously within southwest Asia you have the stories of the Anunnaki.

61
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:24,000
The stories of the Anunnaki or the Watchers or the gods in the Greek Pantheon or any of the ancient gods were based on physical visitations.

62
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:33,000
They are all the same group, the same extraterrestrial. They just have received different names among the tribes and among the continents.

63
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:41,000
If extraterrestrials really did come here to earth to assist humanity, what happened to them?

64
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:51,000
Perhaps the answer can be found with one of the ancient world's most powerful secret societies, which still exists today.

65
00:10:52,000 --> 00:11:03,000
The Netherlands. March 24th, 2014.

66
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:11,000
58 world leaders gather at the World Forum in The Hague for the third biannual Nuclear Security Summit.

67
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:21,000
In the center of the room is a giant spinning hologram of a pyramid with three smaller upside down pyramids inside it.

68
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:28,000
This symbol, which is also worn as a pin by the delegates, is the summit's official logo.

69
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:36,000
But there are some who claim it represents something else, the all-seen eye of the Illuminati.

70
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:47,000
Conspiracy theorists suggest that this century's old secret society is alive and well in the 21st century,

71
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:55,000
as evidenced by symbols flashed by celebrities, industry moguls, and even heads of state.

72
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:00,000
The modern day Illuminati was organized by Adam Weiss out in Germany.

73
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:09,000
And he formulated plans so that his group could infiltrate all the key powers of society, the political sphere, the banking sphere,

74
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,000
the media sphere back in the late 1700s.

75
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:19,000
When we're talking about the Illuminati today, we're talking about essentially the most powerful secret society.

76
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,000
These are the people that pull the strings from behind the scenes.

77
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:40,000
Is this just paranoia, or might the Illuminati still be around today, embedded in the highest levels of society?

78
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:44,000
And if so, what is their agenda?

79
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:51,000
Some say the answer can be found with a much older secret society,

80
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:56,000
which may have been the precursor to the Illuminati, the Knights Templar.

81
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:06,000
This band of warrior monks was formed in 1118 AD to protect pilgrims traveling to Jerusalem during the Crusades.

82
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:16,000
But many claim that their true purpose was to find lost religious relics hidden at the Temple Mount.

83
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:26,000
And during their time in Jerusalem, they rose from relative obscurity to being the most powerful order of the Crusades.

84
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:33,000
So far reaching was their influence, that it became widely rumored they were in league with demons.

85
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:44,000
Jacques de Molay, the leading figure in the history of the Knights Templar, was brought up on charges of treason and heresy for something like devil worship.

86
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,000
They were somehow worshipping the dark side.

87
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:56,000
This was the charge brought against not only de Molay, but the Knights Templars in general.

88
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:08,000
Is it possible the Knights Templar really were in contact with other worldly entities they encountered at the Temple Mount?

89
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:13,000
And if so, just what were these so-called demons?

90
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:22,000
We are taught that these Shadim, Delmons, in many ways they're like human beings, and in many ways they're like the angels.

91
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,000
Some are evil, many are good.

92
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:33,000
Rumor has it that the Templar Knights endeavored to communicate with these spiritual entities.

93
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,000
This concept of demons is very different from the way we think of demons today.

94
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,000
Essentially what a demon was was an otherworldly being.

95
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:51,000
A being that was not of this earth, potentially an extraterrestrial being, with the word extraterrestrial meaning not of this earth.

96
00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:02,000
Could the Templars really have been influenced by aliens that they misinterpreted as spiritual beings?

97
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:13,000
Some ancient astronaut theorists say that the Knights Templar were in contact with the same extraterrestrials that were known in biblical times as the Watchers.

98
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:19,000
And as evidence, they point to one of the Templars most prominent symbols.

99
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:27,000
The same symbol that some say was virtually present at the Nuclear Security Summit, the All-Seeing Eye.

100
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:51,000
This symbol, which is sometimes just an eye, but often an eye within a pyramid, was used by the ancient Egyptians, the Knights Templar, the Rosa Crucians, the Freemasons, the Illuminati, and is even incorporated into the Great Seal of the United States.

101
00:15:52,000 --> 00:16:00,000
It is a symbol that is most commonly interpreted to mean that someone, or something, is watching us.

102
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:10,000
The Eye of Providence symbolizes the idea of an omniscient, intelligent universe that is overseeing all of the affairs that we have here on earth.

103
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:20,000
For many, the Eye of Providence was a symbol that God was watching over us, but others believed that it had a much deeper meaning and actually extended well beyond many other cultures.

104
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,000
Possibly even connected to extraterrestrials.

105
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:42,000
Could the symbol of the All-Seeing Eye be secretly telling us that the Watchers are still here on earth, working behind the scenes in secret societies and even the top levels of government?

106
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:51,000
Curiously, the Book of Enoch tells of the Watchers' arrival, but it never tells of their departure.

107
00:16:52,000 --> 00:17:02,000
We have the records as described in the Book of Enoch and other literature that when the Watchers came down, corrupted the human gene pool.

108
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:11,000
Introducing hidden technologies, centuries before they were meant to be introduced, things were off track.

109
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:19,000
It was then ordained by whatever heavenly powers that we had to start from scratch. The flood was to come.

110
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:26,000
But yet, what happened to the Watchers?

111
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:32,000
They were not human, and therefore they were not subject to a human decree.

112
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,000
Or could they be susceptible to human death?

113
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:41,000
Well, the Bible doesn't say what happened to them, but the other legends do.

114
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:51,000
In the mystical legends, it is taught that a good number of them escaped the flood by escaping to secret hidden places.

115
00:17:53,000 --> 00:18:01,000
Is it possible that ancient aliens called the Watchers actually survived the Cataclysm known as the Great Flood?

116
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:09,000
And could they not only have survived, but managed to live among us in secret for thousands of years?

117
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:18,000
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, and claim that proof can be found deep beneath the Earth.

118
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,000
Neveshihir Province, Central Turkey

119
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:41,000
Hidden 60 meters below ground lies Dering Kuyu, an ancient subterranean city that archaeologists believe once housed more than 20,000 people.

120
00:18:42,000 --> 00:19:01,000
First discovered in 1963, some ancient astronaut theorists contend that the once fully functioning underground city is evidence that ancient people really were forced underground by a great cataclysmic event.

121
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:11,000
And that they may have had help from more advanced beings, like the Watchers.

122
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:24,000
The amazing thing about Dering Kuyu is that it was built around 9,000 BC, just before the last Ice Age.

123
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:33,000
And you have to ask, is it possible that it was built by the Watchers as a refuge for themselves or perhaps as a refuge for humanity?

124
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:45,000
Archaeologists in the Middle East have surmised that around 5,000 BC there was a huge flood throughout the Middle East.

125
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,000
And it destroyed and flooded much of Sumeria and Anatolia.

126
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:59,000
This is the same time where the city of Dering Kuyu was being occupied underground.

127
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:06,000
So we might surmise that this was one of the refuges of the Watchers.

128
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:21,000
Is it really possible that the underground city of Dering Kuyu was constructed with the help of extraterrestrials to provide shelter from a great flood?

129
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:36,000
Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that Dering Kuyu is just one of numerous locations where it appears someone or something built a fortification to serve as a refuge from a great cataclysm.

130
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:52,000
In a remote area of the Himalayan mountain range in Nepal, at an elevation of 14,000 feet, over 10,000 man-made caves have been found carved into sheer cliffs.

131
00:20:53,000 --> 00:21:04,000
Archaeologists believe they could date back more than 3,000 years and struggle to explain how ancient people would have been able to access these caves,

132
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,000
let alone create them.

133
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:17,000
It's not easy to get up there at all. It's not known why would people take the trouble to climb up a vertical cliff in the middle of the Himalayas.

134
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:24,000
It suggests that whoever built them might have had some sort of flying craft technology.

135
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:37,000
Perhaps even more baffling are the Huashan Grottoes in the Anhui province of China.

136
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:46,000
They are the largest ancient man-made caves in the country containing stone rooms, bridges and pavilions.

137
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:52,000
Archaeologists have no idea how they were built, by whom or why.

138
00:21:55,000 --> 00:22:03,000
Could these ancient sites that defy explanation have been built by alien visitors in order to survive the Great Flood?

139
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:19,000
Ancient astronaut theorists contend that perhaps the strongest proof that the watchers survived the Flood can be found not in the Middle East, Asia or India, but in the American Southwest.

140
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:25,000
Northeastern Arizona.

141
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:40,000
Sprawled across this desolate and arid region lie the three maces, settlements of the Native American Hopi tribe, that some have long believed align with the stars of Orion's Belt.

142
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,000
Onalarm, Onatak and Mintaka.

143
00:22:49,000 --> 00:23:01,000
In addition to their strong ties to the constellation of Orion, the Hopi also have numerous legends of the Ant People, an advanced race of beings that came to the aid of mankind.

144
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:09,000
I've seen some of these carvings on the rock cliffs in Arizona.

145
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:32,000
The Ant People helped the Hopi survive two major cataclysms, the destruction of the first world by fire, some kind of asteroid strike, or perhaps a comet hit the earth, and the second world by ice, maybe a pole shift.

146
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:41,000
But each time the Ant People led the Hopi down into caverns and helped them survive in a subterranean world.

147
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:50,000
This story is strikingly similar to that of the watchers who sought to protect the humans that they had interacted with.

148
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:58,000
You have to wonder, are the Ant People somehow related to, if not the same as, the watchers of the biblical story?

149
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:11,000
But what ancient astronaut theorists find most fascinating about the story of the Ant People is what they are called in Hopi.

150
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:18,000
The Hopi word for Ant is Anu, and the Hopi word for friend is Naki.

151
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:27,000
So you put the two together, the Anu Naki, the Ant Friends, that the Hopi had interacted with for centuries and millennia.

152
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:38,000
And this ties in with the Bible and with Sumerian mythology. It's all tied in together. These Ant People are pervasive in human history.

153
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:56,000
According to Sumerian texts, the Anu Naki, much like the watchers, were beings who came down from the sky, and helped mankind's earliest civilization to develop writing, medicine, and irrigation.

154
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:06,000
Could the Hopi stories of the Ant People actually be describing the same star travelers that the Sumerians called the Anu Naki?

155
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,000
And that the Bible refers to as the Watchers?

156
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:24,000
Might the Ant People have been extraterrestrials that took refuge in the caves of the American Southwest to survive the Great Flight?

157
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:36,000
But if the Watchers really did remain here on Earth, did they also continue to manipulate the evolution of human society?

158
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:48,000
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, and claim the evidence can be found with the strange cave-dwelling entities known as the Jinn.

159
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,000
Muscat Oman.

160
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:09,000
Here, on the shores of the Arabian Sea, lies one of the world's ten largest caves, Majlis al-Jinn, or meeting place of the Jinn.

161
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:17,000
According to Islamic texts, the Jinn are beings from a higher realm, but they are not angels.

162
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:27,000
They have free will, and they disobey Allah, just as the Watchers are said to have disobeyed God in the Book of Enoch.

163
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:36,000
And many Muslims believe this 14-acre cavern is still inhabited by these otherworldly beings.

164
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:47,000
In Islam, there is a class of beings known as Jinn. The Jinn are angelic, and yet they are not of the ethereal realm.

165
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:57,000
They are of the earthly realm. They're neither good nor evil. They're shape-shifters. They can help you. They can also trick you.

166
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:05,000
They are supposed to have had magic abilities, supernatural powers, and humans greatly feared the Jinn.

167
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:14,000
They're just exile beings who crossed over a forbidden boundary and now find themselves trapped in the earth plane.

168
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:28,000
In the Islamic texts, the Jinn appear only when they want to be seen, often influencing humans by whispering instructions to them while invisible.

169
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:35,000
In order to understand the nature of these entities, we must understand that in many ways they're the intermediary race.

170
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:42,000
Like human beings, they eat and drink. Like human beings, they sexually procreate.

171
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:49,000
But like the angels, they can shape-shift, fly, and know the future.

172
00:27:53,000 --> 00:28:00,000
Stories of encounters with the Jinn can be found throughout the Muslim world. But could they be true?

173
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:11,000
And if so, are these the same otherworldly entities that are said to have descended to earth before the time of the Great Flood, known as the Watchers?

174
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:23,000
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes and claim that further evidence can be found with the stories of similar strange beings found all over the world.

175
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:37,000
In Africa, there are stories of the Orisha, demigods who came down from the sky that are said to speak every language and secretly influence events on earth.

176
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:47,000
In Japan, the Tengu are bird-like creatures that are said to hide out in the mountains and change form to manipulate humans.

177
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:57,000
But if the Watchers were active on earth hundreds of years ago, could they still be living among us even to this day?

178
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:09,000
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, and for proof, they suggest we look no further in recent accounts of alien abductions.

179
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:21,000
January 25, 1967. South Ashburnham, Massachusetts.

180
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:32,000
30-year-old Betty Andreessen is in her kitchen after dinner while her mother, father, and seven children are in the living room.

181
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,000
Suddenly, the power goes out.

182
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:44,000
And when it comes back on a moment later, a beam of red light shoots through the window.

183
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:50,000
We saw a flashing reddish-orange light coming through the pantry window.

184
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:56,000
Five beings entered my home right through the wooden door.

185
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:08,000
They had large black eyes, tiny nose, thin slit mouth, tiny holes for ears, a large bulbous head.

186
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:14,000
And I was quite shocked wondering, who, what is this, you know?

187
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,000
At that point, I was taking up into the craft.

188
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:29,000
Betty ends up going with them to some place that she thinks is their world.

189
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,000
And she said it was more vivid than life itself.

190
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,000
Betty Andreessen's reports are very detailed and thorough.

191
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:45,000
There's lots and lots of specific drawings that she makes of technology on these ships.

192
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:52,000
This is before the era that anybody was talking about this stuff, so it was a totally unique experience for her.

193
00:30:55,000 --> 00:31:01,000
A devout Christian, Andreessen describes her abduction as a religious experience.

194
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:12,000
The only thing I could think of that they must be angels for them to be able to pass through the door like that and to take me through that door the same way.

195
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:22,000
But for ancient astronaut theorists, this encounter is most significant because of how these strange beings identified themselves.

196
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,000
They said that they were the watchers.

197
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:35,000
But if extraterrestrial beings, known as watchers, are still living among us today, why?

198
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:52,000
Perhaps the answer can be found by examining other cases of extraterrestrial abductions and by examining whether the watchers are watching us or if there are other beings watching them.

199
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,000
June 1st, 1990.

200
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:08,000
UFO investigator Raymond Fowler publishes The Watchers, an unprecedented inside look at the Betty Andreessen case.

201
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:27,000
After years of hypnosis, psych exams and interviews, Fowler concludes that the strange beings Andreessen encountered that called themselves The Watchers were the same entities that are commonly identified today as gray aliens.

202
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:52,000
It's very interesting this word watchers because when you talk with so many people you begin to hear patterns and even if you're not sitting across from a man or a woman or a child who says, I was taken by a watcher, what you hear is the abductees knew that they were dealing with something that knew everything about them.

203
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:58,000
Again, the watcher idea whether you use that name or not.

204
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:08,000
According to Betty's account, the extraterrestrials who took her aboard their craft subjected her to medical examination.

205
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:20,000
And I was floated to a table and as he was examining me, he said they were going to have to measure me physically.

206
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:35,000
And at that point, they started to take this needle like thing and thrust it into my navel and I could feel it going round and round inside me.

207
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:42,000
As incredible as Betty Andreessen's abduction story sounds, it is not unique.

208
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:47,000
Many alleged alien abductees give very similar accounts.

209
00:33:51,000 --> 00:34:03,000
In 1961, Betty and Barney Hill of Lancaster, New Hampshire made one of the earliest alien abduction reports when they claimed that they had been taken aboard a ship.

210
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:12,000
Place naked on examination tables and probed by what they described as gray aliens.

211
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:22,000
Linda Porter of Covina, California reported that in 1963, she too was taken aboard a ship.

212
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:31,000
Where she witnessed strange looking creatures examining humans held in states of suspended animation.

213
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:41,000
But if these accounts are true, what is it that's being done to these abductees?

214
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:53,000
Watchers have two key areas of interest as concerns humanity. One is genetics and the other is technology and both are found in the phenomena of alien abductions.

215
00:34:54,000 --> 00:35:05,000
So one idea would be that the purpose of the abductions is to continue to tweak the human body to assist humanity in climbing the evolutionary ladder, so to speak.

216
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:17,000
Is it possible that the watchers that were described in the Bible and the book of Enoch really are responsible for the modern alien abduction phenomenon?

217
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:27,000
And that they are continuing to alter our genetic makeup? Or might there be another explanation?

218
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:44,000
Some ancient astronaut theorists suggest it is possible that modern alien abductions are not the work of those same watchers that survived the great flood, but that instead they are carried out by another group of extraterrestrials.

219
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:50,000
Watchers that have returned to Earth in search of those who stayed behind.

220
00:35:51,000 --> 00:36:00,000
All of the people that I've interviewed, they would tell you the same thing. These watchers, they're not all of the same mind.

221
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:09,000
There seems to be conflict about what the future of humanity on this planet will be.

222
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:37,000
The legends teach us that watchers fight amongst themselves and that they will each manipulate segments of humanity so as to express their own agendas and therefore it is they who influence nations to go to war and to fight for their purposes and not necessarily for our own betterment.

223
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:55,000
And you have to wonder if many of the modern day abductions such as Betty Andreessen are really extraterrestrials who are searching for the watchers.

224
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:08,000
Could it be that extraterrestrials are abducting humans because they are actually looking for other alien beings hiding among us?

225
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:19,000
Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that the answer may be found by taking a closer look at the United States government's most secret projects.

226
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:30,000
San Francisco, California, June 6th, 2011.

227
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:40,000
At the annual Apple Worldwide Developers Conference, Steve Jobs introduces the world to his latest technological breakthrough.

228
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:43,000
iCloud.

229
00:37:44,000 --> 00:38:04,000
This new service allows users to store all of their digital data such as music, email, contacts, documents, photos, and internet search history on pools of remote servers collectively known as the cloud.

230
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:16,000
This revolutionary technology takes off so fast that within two years there are over 300 million people on the cloud.

231
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:25,000
And because it is built into every Apple device, some people use the cloud without even realizing it.

232
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:39,000
But while Apple assures its customers that their personal files are secure, in August of 2014, explicit personal photos of female celebrities begin to pop up online.

233
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,000
The cloud has been hacked.

234
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,000
All of your information is now on the cloud. It's now somewhere else.

235
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:54,000
Sure, you can always potentially access it and read that information back, but that also means someone else now has access to your data.

236
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:59,000
That data could be your emails, it could be your messages, it could be phone calls, it could be voicemails.

237
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:08,000
It's incredible because you're literally just handing your data over to an unknown location run by who knows who.

238
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:12,000
Many people see very big security issues with these.

239
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:18,000
You're no longer personally having control of your own data on your own hard drive.

240
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:23,000
You're just sending it off into the ether to who knows where.

241
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:34,000
When Edward Snowden revealed in 2013, the extent to which our privacy has been compromised, it drew public outrage.

242
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:43,000
But as the march of technology moves forward, are we adapting to the notion that nothing is sacred or secret?

243
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:52,000
And is it possible that extraterrestrials who have been watching us for thousands of years actually led us to this point?

244
00:39:52,000 --> 00:40:10,000
Could it be that our increased reliance on computers, cell phones, tablets and anything else connected to the Internet is the product of extraterrestrial design, giving the watchers greater access to us than ever before?

245
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:26,000
We're living in a day and age now where everybody is carrying literally a camera and a microphone in their hand or in their pocket that can be remotely activated by the NSA or various number of intelligence agencies or even hackers.

246
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:33,000
The webcams in all laptops and the microphones can be easily remotely activated.

247
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:52,000
It really seems that because of technology, these extraterrestrials step up their monitoring and watch every little detail of what goes on and they want to see our planet nurture certain civilizations that are technologically minded.

248
00:40:53,000 --> 00:41:05,000
But there are some who believe the highly interconnected society we now live in provides for even more shocking implications.

249
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:20,000
They say that extraterrestrials may actually be in league with world leaders, monitoring each and every one of us in an effort to root out the watchers who have been hiding among us for thousands of years.

250
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:39,000
The United States government has proof that at least three competing geopolitical territorial extraterrestrial groups that are in conflict with each other have been on this planet.

251
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:47,000
The intervention may actually be positive for humans going forward.

252
00:41:48,000 --> 00:42:04,000
But we are also presented the idea that we are dealing with intelligences that may actually want to do harm and have done harm. It is as if there were political parties in the cosmos.

253
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:18,000
Is it possible, as ancient astronaut theorists contend, that the watchers really do exist and are still here on Earth watching over us?

254
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:24,000
Could we be under surveillance by not one group of watchers?

255
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:35,000
But several, and might a secret conglomeration of the world's most powerful leaders have actually taken a side in this extraterrestrial conflict.

256
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:42,000
Perhaps very soon we will discover that aliens have been among us all along.

257
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:54,000
Watching us and guiding us, not only in the interest of our own future, but also theirs.
