1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
What is that?

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:06,000
Notice anything strange in the sky lately?

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,000
If you answered yes, you're not alone.

4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:14,000
We have an active member of the military telling us that they have you at both sighting all the time.

5
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:22,000
Holy s***, there are three big unanswered questions that all of humanity wants to know the answer to.

6
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Is there a God? What happens when we die?

7
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,000
And have we made contact with extraterrestrials?

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,000
Come check this out.

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,000
Thousand sign.

10
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Is there any logical explanation what that thing is?

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,000
No.

12
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,000
There are things the government does not share with us.

13
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,000
The sight of a secret government project.

14
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,000
It's just a huge mystery.

15
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Some of it are things we have a right to know.

16
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,000
Look, he's getting lower and faster.

17
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,000
He's got to sound scared.

18
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,000
Now I want to know is my family safe? Is our planet safe?

19
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,000
We have to find the answers ourselves.

20
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,000
There's something going on.

21
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:02,000
This is uncharted territory.

22
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000
It doesn't look normal to me what's happened here.

23
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:24,000
These phenomena are obviously the result of a high technical skill that cannot be credited

24
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,000
by any presently known culture on Earth.

25
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:34,000
This is a declassified top secret Air Force document admitting on the record

26
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,000
that they are seeing possible extraterrestrials in our sky.

27
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:44,000
And look, this is only one of tens of thousands of documents recently declassified.

28
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,000
This is a limitless trove of information that may change everything.

29
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,000
A-TIP.

30
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,000
Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program.

31
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,000
Since I first heard about that program, I became obsessed with it.

32
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,000
It was a bombshell.

33
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Why would the government do that?

34
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Why would they invest that money?

35
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,000
Why would they invest that effort?

36
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,000
As a guy who spent his life handling government secrets, there's only one reason.

37
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,000
Because they thought there was something to investigate.

38
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Mike Cole is a 16-year intelligence veteran.

39
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:27,000
With the FBI, DIA and CIA, who was on the team that dismantled Osama bin Laden's terrorist network.

40
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,000
I led the intelligence effort at a fusion cell in Baghdad.

41
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:35,000
I was responsible for bringing together all of these disparate pieces of intelligence

42
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,000
so that we could hunt down terrorists.

43
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,000
I solved puzzles.

44
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,000
So now that the A-TIP program is revealed, I'm going to get to the truth.

45
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,000
However the data takes me.

46
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,000
My God!

47
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:50,000
As part of the A-TIP program, a series of videos captured by US military were released.

48
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,000
Oh my gosh, dude.

49
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,000
Wow!

50
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Let's try it.

51
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,000
Hey!

52
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,000
What the f**k is this?

53
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:03,000
To date, the Pentagon has revealed no explanation for these objects.

54
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:08,000
What really fascinates me about this A-TIP material is that it's not just a video,

55
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,000
but it's a video that's really interesting.

56
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:16,000
What really fascinates me about this A-TIP material is so much of its military.

57
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,000
And they don't know what they're seeing.

58
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,000
Joining Mike in the Command Center is Dr. Michael Livingston,

59
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:27,000
professor at the Citadel and expert on conflict analysis.

60
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:32,000
What I do is I try and understand how one nation invades another.

61
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,000
What we're looking at here in this investigation is that exact same thing,

62
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,000
but a galactic kind of scale.

63
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:43,000
We just happen to be alive at a time when we have this incredible intersection of data

64
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:50,000
and technology that positions us to answer a question that nobody has been able to answer before.

65
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,000
We're going to take a radical, totally new and comprehensive approach

66
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:59,000
for bringing together billions of data points, individual sightings to social media posts

67
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:05,000
to declassify government reports and use big data technology to find the truth.

68
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:11,000
The team is armed with powerful link analysis software developed for the CIA.

69
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:16,000
Every existing declassified government file, photo, social media post,

70
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:22,000
and eyewitness account from around the world is converted into billions of pieces of searchable data

71
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:28,000
that the software analyzes to reveal hidden connections and patterns never before seen.

72
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,000
So it's not just a search engine, it's an intelligence engine,

73
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,000
which could be the key to answer that question.

74
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,000
Are extraterrestrials making contact with Earth or is it something else?

75
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,000
About this 2004 Nimitz report we got this next day.

76
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,000
So open it up.

77
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,000
We are going to use the same methodology here that I use in my conflict analysis.

78
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,000
So before we can determine whether extraterrestrials have contacted mankind,

79
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:59,000
we must first eliminate terrestrial technology as a source for what we see happening in our airspace.

80
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:05,000
And the 2004 Nimitz incident is the best evidence we have to begin to answer that question.

81
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:06,000
Look at this.

82
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,000
It's incredible.

83
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,000
It is absolutely... there it goes.

84
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,000
Look at that.

85
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:19,000
In 2004, the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier was stationed off the coast of San Diego, California

86
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:23,000
when one of the ship's fighter jets engaged a strange object in the sky,

87
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,000
capturing footage of the incident on its infrared camera.

88
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:31,000
This is not some crazy person with their cell phone on Instagram, right?

89
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:37,000
This is a $15 billion aircraft carrier with its radar systems, everything state of the art.

90
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,000
What is that?

91
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:46,000
At this point, there's one main witness who's been talking about this, Commander David Fraver.

92
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:52,000
He's on one of those first FAA teams that goes out and actually encounters something.

93
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:57,000
So as we get to about here, about 12 o'clock, there's about the time I start pulling my nose onto it,

94
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,000
and about here, it goes, and it's gone.

95
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,000
Fraver has done that interview again and again and again, right?

96
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,000
This is the guy who likes to talk.

97
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,000
We need to find the guy whose story hasn't been on every news outlet,

98
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:19,000
who can answer the question, is what we saw in that video evidence of something extraterrestrial operating in our airspace.

99
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,000
You got it.

100
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,000
The Link Analysis software digs through millions of declassified military documents

101
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:32,000
to uncover senior personnel that had a high probability of serving at the time of the Nimitz incident.

102
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,000
Pull up that declassified Air Force Dock.

103
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Roger that.

104
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Kevin Mark Day.

105
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,000
Supervisory Air Intercept Controller, nine years on that system.

106
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,000
And this is the guy on that radar that day.

107
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,000
Where is he located?

108
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,000
Oregon.

109
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,000
Alright, let's get a team on the ground in Oregon.

110
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:09,000
I think it's fair to say that throughout human history, people have been looking up and wondering, are we alone?

111
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:15,000
The first field team lands in Cave Junction, Oregon and heads to the home of Senior Chief Kevin Day.

112
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:20,000
We actually have imagery and video from military aircraft, which is very compelling.

113
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:27,000
Nick Carnese spent five years in the Elite Marine Special Operations as an on-the-ground intelligence officer.

114
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:31,000
I'm versed in reading people, understanding if these people are telling us the truth

115
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,000
and understanding the reports that come from those interviews.

116
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,000
To actually get more answers as opposed to peer speculation.

117
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:42,000
Nick is joined by Sarah Crutus, a world-renowned space journalist with a background in astrophysics

118
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:47,000
who has spent her career travelling the world to investigate what lies beyond Earth.

119
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:52,000
The idea of extraterrestrial life is the most profound question we've ever asked as a species.

120
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,000
And for the first time ever, we're actually able to get the science and the information together

121
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,000
to try and answer this fundamental question.

122
00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,000
Is this it?

123
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,000
Aloha!

124
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Hey, Kevin.

125
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,000
Hi.

126
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,000
I'm Nick.

127
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,000
Kevin Day.

128
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,000
Greetings to you, Nick.

129
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,000
So before we get started, do you mind if I film?

130
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Not at all.

131
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,000
Cool.

132
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,000
There we go.

133
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,000
So Kevin, at the time of the Nimitz incident, what was your role on board ship?

134
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:25,000
Anti-air warfare coordinator, trying to protect the strike group and protect navy assets.

135
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,000
We were off the coast of San Diego about 70 miles of the entire strike group.

136
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:35,000
We went out there primarily to do individual ship training.

137
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,000
I started noticing these really anomalous tracks, unlike nothing I'd ever seen before.

138
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,000
And these objects were coming into my radar coverage.

139
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,000
There was probably 10 objects in the sky.

140
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,000
10?

141
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,000
Wow.

142
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:53,000
In the back of my mind, I was thinking, I want to intercept one of these things.

143
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,000
And so I launched an intercept aircraft.

144
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,000
These started making the approach to this object, and that's when everything changed.

145
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,000
This thing did a barrel roll around his aircraft.

146
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,000
Really?

147
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:09,000
It went straight down to the surface of the ocean.

148
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,000
He went following it down.

149
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:17,000
And as soon as he went like that, this thing popped straight back out of the water, back up to 28,000 feet.

150
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,000
Quiet.

151
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,000
Did it make a sound?

152
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,000
No, it's completely quiet.

153
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,000
You know, if something's going that fast, it's going to sound like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

154
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,000
There's going to be a whole bunch of sonic booms.

155
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,000
No sonic booms.

156
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,000
Can you talk us through the technology that you witnessed?

157
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:38,000
If you can imagine a 47 foot long tic-tac, they didn't have any wings.

158
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,000
They didn't have any propulsion system.

159
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:47,000
They could travel from point A to point B in a matter of a second, even though it was miles and miles and miles away.

160
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:55,000
And if anything biological would have been in that thing, given Newtonian physics, classical physics, it would have turned you into mush.

161
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,000
There's no way you could withstand that type of g-force.

162
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:03,000
I think the human body could withstand about eight Gs. This thing had 1,350 Gs.

163
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,000
It would have been paced.

164
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,000
It literally gives me chills listening to this.

165
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,000
I mean, it's absolutely extraordinary.

166
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:22,000
The fact that we have military personnel that witnessed multiple objects, and not only were they eyewitnesses personally, but we have it on official DoD video, it doesn't get better than that.

167
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:29,000
How does it make you feel to have seen something like this, which after all these years you still can't identify?

168
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:35,000
It makes me concerned, because if these things would have been hostile, I may not even be here right now.

169
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,000
They totally had every advantage on us.

170
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:45,000
Without a doubt in my mind, I know that there's something in our skies, and that's pretty heavy. That's serious.

171
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,000
I mean, is this a threat? Can we prevent against it?

172
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,000
We absolutely need to find out what else is out there.

173
00:10:53,000 --> 00:11:04,000
They could travel from Point A to Point B in a matter of a second, unlike nothing I've ever seen before.

174
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:08,000
1,350 Gs, that's over 100,000 miles an hour.

175
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,000
That's insane.

176
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,000
There's something else that I think is really interesting that we're getting out of this.

177
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:18,000
He says there's no sound, and it makes sense that he's not hearing a sound.

178
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,500
He's not hearing a sound.

179
00:11:19,500 --> 00:11:21,000
Yeah, he's in a closed radar room,

180
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,000
three decks below in the middle of an aircraft carrier.

181
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,000
Right. But there should be a sound.

182
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:30,000
Something moving that fast through our air makes sound.

183
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,000
A very big sound.

184
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,000
But our atmosphere is a substance,

185
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:37,000
and that substance acts against objects moving through it.

186
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,000
Look at our own space shuttle.

187
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,000
When it enters our atmosphere, it makes a truly loud boom.

188
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,000
And it's only moving at 17,000 miles an hour.

189
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,000
If craft are moving through our atmosphere at these extraordinary speeds,

190
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,000
sound could be the key to tracking them.

191
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:55,000
Right.

192
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,000
So let's get on the link analysis software

193
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:01,000
and search for abnormal sounds that are coming from the sky,

194
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,000
because that's the key.

195
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:03,000
Yeah, let's take a look.

196
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,000
All right.

197
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:08,000
Punching in bang, roar, buzz.

198
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,000
And I'm connected to UFO sightings from all around the world.

199
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Okay.

200
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,000
Let's see what we get.

201
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,000
We get a lot.

202
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,000
That's a lot of data, man.

203
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,000
Okay.

204
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,000
Oh.

205
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,000
Oh.

206
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,000
We've got odd noises from around the world.

207
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,000
Let's start with Moscow.

208
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,000
All right.

209
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,000
That is eerie.

210
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,000
That's very strange.

211
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,000
Hey, check this out.

212
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,000
August 22nd, 2011.

213
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:54,000
We have five abnormal sounds that are picking up on our results all on the same day.

214
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,000
Huh.

215
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:59,000
There's not more than one on any other day.

216
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,000
This is a clear anomaly.

217
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,000
What's Tampa Stadium?

218
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,000
Is that a...

219
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,000
That's a sports stadium.

220
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,000
Capacity of around 30,000 people.

221
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,000
Can we pull it up?

222
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,000
Yeah.

223
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,000
What is that?

224
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,000
Is that wind?

225
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:24,000
Look, I've got social media hits from people in that stadium, and they're wondering, yeah, is that wind?

226
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,000
Somebody's wondering if it's a PA system.

227
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,000
It does not sound like PA feedback to me.

228
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,000
It doesn't sound like PA feedback at all.

229
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,000
That's a little strange.

230
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,000
Well, okay.

231
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:36,000
If this is actually coming from the sky, that's going to be heard outside the stadium.

232
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,000
For sure.

233
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,000
What sort of radius?

234
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,000
20 miles.

235
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:44,000
Okay, so we've got a number of people reporting things.

236
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:45,000
A couple of fan videos.

237
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,000
Look at this one over here.

238
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Justin J.

239
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,000
Same date.

240
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,000
Yeah.

241
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,000
St. Petersburg, Florida.

242
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,000
A few miles away.

243
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,000
Can anyone else hear that outside?

244
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,000
Outside.

245
00:13:55,000 --> 00:14:02,000
If this guy five miles away can corroborate that if he heard the same sound, then we're looking at something bigger.

246
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,000
Possibly that's something.

247
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:08,000
The night of this earth is moving crazy fast through our atmosphere.

248
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,000
Bring up that classified Air Force file.

249
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,000
There you go.

250
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:32,000
CIA veteran Mike Cole and conflict analyst Dr. Livingston have launched an unprecedented global investigation

251
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:39,000
using powerful CIA link analysis software to uncover evidence of extraterrestrial contact with Earth.

252
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,000
We're about 10 minutes away from Justin's place and he's an ear witness to these sounds.

253
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:55,000
On the ground, Nick Carnese, US Marine Intelligence Officer and Astrophysicist and Space Journalist Sarah Crutus

254
00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:01,000
investigate a pattern of unusual sounds erupting from the night sky on August 22, 2011.

255
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,000
He might be reluctant to be talking to us about this.

256
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:08,000
A lot of people are kind of skittish when it comes to sensitive subjects like this.

257
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:19,000
They head to the home of Justin Jenkins, who claims to have heard strange sounds five miles from where audio phenomenon were also reported inside a Tampa Bay Stadium the same night.

258
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,000
Oh, here we are.

259
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:28,000
If the sound that was heard at the stadium is the same sound that Justin heard, we're onto something much bigger here.

260
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,000
Nice to meet you.

261
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,000
Nice to meet you.

262
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,000
Thank you.

263
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,000
Justin, tell us what happened on August 22, 2011.

264
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:46,000
Came home probably around eight o'clock at night and then I suddenly got a call from my neighbors saying, you got to get out here.

265
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,000
Like, there's something's going on.

266
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:57,000
Stopped what I was doing, walked outside and there was this huge sound.

267
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,000
I don't even know if I can really call it loud.

268
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,000
What do you mean by huge then?

269
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:08,000
It sounded like just this enormous piece of steel just rubbing across the ground, almost like a...

270
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,000
But almost off in the distance.

271
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,000
Could you feel it?

272
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,000
Well, that's initially what I thought.

273
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:26,000
Something this big of a sound, you'd feel vibration, you'd feel the ground moving.

274
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,000
But there was nothing.

275
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,000
It was still.

276
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,000
And could you get an idea of the sense of where it was coming from?

277
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:41,000
I got into my car and I tried to drive around to pinpoint exactly where it was coming from.

278
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:45,000
And every time I got out of the car, it was everywhere.

279
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:50,000
It was just all around us and it seemed to be coming out of the sky.

280
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,000
Have you ever experienced anything like this?

281
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,000
There's all kinds of sounds around here.

282
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,000
There's an Air Force base right across the bay.

283
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:05,000
So we get jets flying over all the time.

284
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,000
This was nothing like that.

285
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,000
I've never heard anything like this.

286
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,000
I wish we could hear it.

287
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,000
I know.

288
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,000
My neighbors, they were actually recording it with their camera phone.

289
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,000
Download it from the phone onto a zip drive.

290
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,000
Are you ready?

291
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:22,000
Ready.

292
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,000
This is the noise.

293
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,000
What is that?

294
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,000
I hope the video is picking it up.

295
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,000
And then it trails off there.

296
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,000
This is very compelling to me.

297
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,000
This sounds exactly like the sound of the stadium.

298
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,000
It's amazing.

299
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,000
On top of that, we're over five miles away.

300
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,000
It rules out any speaker malfunction inside the dome,

301
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,000
any wind causing that.

302
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:57,000
It made me think, what's out there?

303
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,000
And what's close?

304
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,000
Things that are right at our doorstep.

305
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,000
The fact that he was able to get a copy of that recording,

306
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:14,000
that on itself could provide a lot of useful information.

307
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,000
But I feel like we can't hear it very well

308
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,000
because there's a lot of background noise.

309
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:23,000
So it'd be interesting to see maybe we can get an expert in forensic acoustics

310
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,000
and see if we can actually try and isolate the sound

311
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,000
and figure out exactly what it is.

312
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,000
Are you ready?

313
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,000
Let's do it.

314
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,000
The team arrives at the Audio Forensics Lab

315
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,000
in downtown St. Petersburg, Florida.

316
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,000
Hey, good afternoon.

317
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,000
Nice to meet you.

318
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,000
Hey, Ed, Nick.

319
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,000
They make contact with Ed Primo,

320
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:54,000
a forensic audiologist who conducts audio analysis

321
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,000
for local law enforcement and the FBI.

322
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,000
We need the best technology to dive deep into the waveform

323
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,000
and give us an analysis and compare it to other things

324
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,000
that they have on record and see if we can determine what it is or isn't.

325
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,000
This is Justin's recording.

326
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,000
It's the full sound spectrum of what the phone recorded.

327
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,000
This is the noise.

328
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,000
What is that?

329
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,000
This is actually the audio track

330
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,000
and what we're looking at here is a spectrogram.

331
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,000
This colored area here that's brighter,

332
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,000
that's our sound right there, the unknown sound.

333
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,000
Utilizing advanced algorithms,

334
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,000
Ed Software isolates the audio waves

335
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,000
associated with the unknown sound

336
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:41,000
to create a digital fingerprint called a spectrogram.

337
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,000
So we got rid of the sounds that are distracting to your ear

338
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,000
as you're trying to listen to a specific sound.

339
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,000
This is the noise.

340
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,000
What is it?

341
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,000
It's very unique.

342
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,000
Now the video that we have from the stadium,

343
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,000
can we compare those two?

344
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,000
Yes, we can.

345
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,000
So this is the stadium recording without the high frequencies.

346
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,000
This is just our unknown sound.

347
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,000
This is Justin's recording.

348
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,000
The noise.

349
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,000
What is it?

350
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,000
And it's occurring between 100 Hz and 300 Hz.

351
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,000
And when we look at the other recording,

352
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,000
it's the same frequency.

353
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,000
We see the same frequency,

354
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,000
which is one of the reasons why I believe they're the same.

355
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,000
The spectrogram clearly shows that these two sounds,

356
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,000
the one at the stadium and the one that Justin recorded,

357
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,000
are the same sound.

358
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,000
That's a big deal.

359
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,000
There's obviously something coming from the night sky

360
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,000
that we can't yet explain.

361
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,000
We can rule out, and they're playing a train,

362
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,000
anything that moves to create sound.

363
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,000
Ed runs the spectrogram of the unknown sound

364
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,000
through a database of 10,000 spectrograms

365
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,000
of natural and man-made sounds from Earth.

366
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,000
Planes, ambulance, fighter jets.

367
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,000
To determine if there is a match.

368
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,000
Wind is the only thing that I discovered that's similar.

369
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,000
But then we can see that wind oscillates.

370
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,000
It goes up and down in tonality.

371
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,000
When we look at our sound,

372
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:16,000
it's very narrow and very consistent along the bottom,

373
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,000
between 300 and 100 hertz.

374
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,000
And it's not oscillating.

375
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,000
This is why I believe it's not wind.

376
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:29,000
So, do you have any idea basically what it is?

377
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,000
It doesn't sound like anything that I've experienced before.

378
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,000
In how many years?

379
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,000
35 years I've been practicing.

380
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,000
So in 35 years of practicing,

381
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,000
you've never heard something like this sound?

382
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,000
No.

383
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:44,000
This is giving me chills.

384
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,000
This sound does not match any terrestrial sound.

385
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,000
Like, let that sink in.

386
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,000
Ed is an audiophrynsics expert

387
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,000
who's been analyzing sounds for over three decades.

388
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,000
And the fact that he doesn't know what caused this sound,

389
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,000
if that doesn't motivate you to want to dig deeper,

390
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,000
I don't know what will.

391
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:13,000
Let's pull up the waveform from the sound analysis.

392
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,000
Okay.

393
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,000
Mike Cole and Dr. Livingston review the findings

394
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,000
from the field team in Florida.

395
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,000
Their link analysis software uncovered a pattern

396
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,000
of multiple strange, unknown sounds

397
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,000
emanating from the night sky over St. Petersburg, Florida

398
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,000
on August 22, 2011.

399
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,000
A forensic audiologist of decades of experience,

400
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,000
certifying that he has never heard anything

401
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,000
either man-made or natural,

402
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,000
create this kind of sound.

403
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,000
This is pretty exciting.

404
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,000
We've shown through audiopharynx

405
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,000
that this is a sound without a natural explanation.

406
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,000
This could be evidence that something out of this earth

407
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,000
is moving through our skies.

408
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,000
Another thing, we got an update from Sarah and Nick in the field.

409
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,000
They just interviewed Margie Blake.

410
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,000
She claims to have seen strange objects in the sky

411
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,000
on that same night.

412
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,000
She lives just a few miles from the other reported activity

413
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,000
in Florida.

414
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:14,000
It was August 22, 2011.

415
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,000
These lights caught my eye.

416
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,000
They were orange orbs.

417
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,000
I'd probably say 50 to 60 total.

418
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,000
They were coming down in groups, like circling each other,

419
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,000
and they shot to the north and just totally disappeared.

420
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,000
That's amazing.

421
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,000
She's giving us a really key piece of intel, a direction.

422
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,000
It went north.

423
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,000
So can we track that?

424
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,000
UFO orbs, lights.

425
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,000
Orbs, lights on August 22, 2011, just the United States.

426
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,000
Okay, here we go.

427
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,000
It's getting a lot.

428
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,000
Okay.

429
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,000
All right, so we have a lot of social media traffic.

430
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,000
Look at this.

431
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,000
Weird orange lights flying by.

432
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,000
Exact same language Margie used.

433
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,000
Lights above town, random blinking lights.

434
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,000
And look at this, right?

435
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,000
We track this on a map.

436
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,000
It's like an arrow going north, just like Margie said.

437
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,000
But it's stopping.

438
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,000
All in a cluster in one location in Virginia.

439
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,000
Where is that?

440
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,000
Waynesboro, Virginia.

441
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,000
What do we know about that town?

442
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,000
Not a very big town, about 20,000 people.

443
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,000
Shenandoah Valley, old coal mining town.

444
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,000
Look, I've got social media hits from people in this area.

445
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,000
Everyone come meet me and Abby in Waynesboro.

446
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,000
There's UFOs in the sky right now.

447
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,000
This guy, Andrew Santiago.

448
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,000
Anyone else see these lights above town?

449
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,000
Why do we have eight sightings in a town of 20,000 people?

450
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,000
We just went up the whole eastern seaboard.

451
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,000
There's tons of lots more popular cities than that.

452
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,000
Very strange, and to have them all in this same moment,

453
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,000
the same 24-hour period.

454
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,000
But it could all be completely separate events, right?

455
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,000
Right.

456
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,000
This could be one event that's happening in St. Petersburg.

457
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,000
There's a lot of stuff going on that these people are seeing in Waynesboro.

458
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,000
Right.

459
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,000
But if we can prove that it's connected, that's a big deal.

460
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,000
We have so many people making social media posts in Waynesboro.

461
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,000
Surely we can find somebody to talk to.

462
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,000
Absolutely.

463
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,000
We need to get Nick and Sarah out there.

464
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,000
Crazy, like 24 hours ago we were in Florida.

465
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Now we're in the mountains in Virginia,

466
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,000
and the weather reminds me of home.

467
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:31,000
Nick and Sarah head to the home of local Waynesboro resident Andrew Santiago,

468
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:35,000
who reported on social media seeing strange lights above town

469
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,000
on the night of August 22nd.

470
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:42,000
The fact that we've had so many sightings that seem to one leads to another,

471
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,000
that's very compelling to me.

472
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,000
I just want to do this one right here.

473
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,000
Are these sightings in the small town of Virginia connected to this larger pattern

474
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,000
we see moving up these coasts?

475
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,000
And if so, is this small town in Virginia where the answers lie?

476
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,000
How are you?

477
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,000
Andrew?

478
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,000
Yeah.

479
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,000
Hey, I'm Nick.

480
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,000
May we come in?

481
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,000
Yeah.

482
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,000
Do you mind if I take out a camera and set it up?

483
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,000
That's fine.

484
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,000
Cool.

485
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,000
How do you guys happen to find me?

486
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:13,000
A lot of research.

487
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:18,000
So we've been looking into these events that occurred around the 22nd of August.

488
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,000
That's why we're really curious to learn more about what you experienced.

489
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:24,000
I was living with my brother at the time and him and his wife had just went to bed.

490
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,000
I was playing video games.

491
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:32,000
I was getting a little tired, so I turned the TV off and got ready for bed.

492
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,000
The room lit up.

493
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,000
I didn't know what was going on.

494
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:40,000
So I looked at the door to see if my brother had opened my door and the door was still shut.

495
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,000
And that's when I noticed that the light was coming through the blinds.

496
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:50,000
Like enough to light up the room to where as if it was daylight outside.

497
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,000
And as soon as I get into the hallway, my brother and his wife are standing there.

498
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,000
I said, did you see the light?

499
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,000
He was like, yeah, it was bright enough to wake us both up.

500
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,000
You sure it wasn't a dream?

501
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,000
Yeah.

502
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,000
Unless we was both dreaming the same dream.

503
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,000
Our rooms are different sides of the house.

504
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,000
You know, it lit up both sides of the house at the same time.

505
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,000
So it's all encompassing light?

506
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,000
Yeah, directly above the house.

507
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,000
Have you seen shooting stars before?

508
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:17,000
Yeah, I see them a lot.

509
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,000
Do you think it could have been anything like that coming into the atmosphere?

510
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,000
I don't know what kind of sound they make when they come into the atmosphere.

511
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,000
Did I couldn't forget what it sounded like?

512
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,000
Really?

513
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,000
What did it sound like?

514
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,000
It was like a roaring, rumbling sound.

515
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,000
Was it kind of in the background?

516
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,000
Yeah, like in the distance, like way off.

517
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,000
That's interesting.

518
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:43,000
Andrew is describing both hearing something and seeing something.

519
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:48,000
And his description is very similar to what we heard in Florida.

520
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:49,000
I mean, this is huge.

521
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,000
Now we have a clear connection here.

522
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,000
For whatever reason, almost all roads lead to Waynesboro.

523
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,000
And the question is why?

524
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,000
Do you guys think you know what it was?

525
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,000
We can't give you the answers just yet as to what it is.

526
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,000
But we're going to help.

527
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:22,000
Look at this amazing library.

528
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:29,000
Former US Marine Intelligence Officer Nick Carnese and Astrophysicist and Space Journalist Sarah Crutus

529
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:34,000
are on the ground in Waynesboro, Virginia, where a pattern of strange sounds and sightings

530
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:40,000
on August 22, 2011 has led them to this small town in the Shenandoah Valley.

531
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:44,000
Why is it that we have a series of both audio and visual sightings

532
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,000
all on the same day, all ending up here?

533
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,000
What the hell is going on in Waynesboro that's causing this to happen?

534
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,000
The team has been granted access to the city archives,

535
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:58,000
which houses local documents from the last 200 years.

536
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,000
We're all used to just getting online and Googling and finding things out.

537
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:06,000
But in small towns like this, actually there might be a wealth of information that's not online.

538
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,000
Look at this.

539
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,000
Close encounters of the local kind.

540
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:16,000
The Shenandoah Valley is no stranger to close encounters of the unexplained kind.

541
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:23,000
At least 25 UFO sightings in the valley between November 1964 and January 1965

542
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,000
were investigated by the Air Force.

543
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,000
25 sightings between 1964 and 1965.

544
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,000
Yeah, so that won essentially a year time span.

545
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,000
Wow, take a look at this one.

546
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:35,000
Seven high school students and a school bus driver have reported sighting

547
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:39,000
as shapeless white object in the sky north of Waynesboro.

548
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,000
It appears that there's been decades of sightings here in Waynesboro.

549
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,000
Look at this one, local gunsmith encounters UFO.

550
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,000
It's not just this one isolated incident in modern times,

551
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,000
it actually spans back to the 1960s.

552
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,000
I'm surprised there's just so many in this small area too.

553
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:58,000
I mean, this is not a heavily populated area now, especially back in, you know, the 60s.

554
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:02,000
So what I recommend we do is you start going through all these articles again deliberately

555
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,000
and start plotting them and seeing if we can develop a pattern.

556
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,000
Okay, cool.

557
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,000
Yeah, let's just start with these.

558
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,000
It says it was 1965.

559
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:10,000
1965.

560
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,000
Just east of Stanton.

561
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:13,000
Near Waynesboro.

562
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,000
Hovering orange and blue ball in the night sky,

563
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,000
and this is March 1988.

564
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,000
The object whizzed away to the northwest.

565
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:26,000
That has to be the Shenandoah to the west of Waynesboro.

566
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,000
We have these clusters of sightings between Waynesboro and Stanton, right?

567
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,000
All along 250.

568
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:36,000
Plotting them on the map, the data points point in one direction,

569
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:40,000
and that's a northwestly direction towards the mountains.

570
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,000
I can say with a high degree of confidence that we need to investigate these mountains

571
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,000
in the Shenandoah northwest of Waynesboro further.

572
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,000
Now let's do it.

573
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:55,000
This is a huge area.

574
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:59,000
The team arrives at the section of the Shenandoah mountains,

575
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,000
located northwest of Waynesboro.

576
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,000
Actually, it's right up here.

577
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,000
We'll just pull over and take a look.

578
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,000
Shall we?

579
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,000
See that big gray area right through the trees?

580
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,000
Can't really see it with the trees.

581
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,000
It'd be nice to be able to get to a higher elevation

582
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,000
so we have a better line of sight on it.

583
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,000
Back in my time at the Marine Corps in the mountains of Afghanistan,

584
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,000
we would use drones a lot.

585
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,000
Great tool when you have a large area like this

586
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,000
when you're not quite sure what you're working with.

587
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:32,000
They will focus their aerial recon on a five-square-mile search grid

588
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,000
of the Shenandoah mountains,

589
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:39,000
where hundreds of UFO sightings over the last five decades have been clustered.

590
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,000
Let's do it.

591
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,000
Get it.

592
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:48,000
Right now, we're just getting a high-altitude look down

593
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,000
to see if anything initially pops up at us.

594
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,000
And then we'll start searching grid by grid here.

595
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,000
So far, it looks like we have some trails,

596
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,000
but the trees are just so closely packed,

597
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,000
there's just like a blanket of gray.

598
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,000
Yeah, I'm just not seeing anything.

599
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,000
I'm going to go ahead and switch into thermal.

600
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:11,000
The team utilizes the drone's thermal system

601
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,000
and the team utilizes the drone's thermal sensor,

602
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:18,000
which can identify anomalies through minute variations in temperature.

603
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,000
Hey, wait, this is interesting.

604
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,000
Look at that. There's a little signature there.

605
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,000
I mean, that's odd.

606
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,000
Look, a 30 to 40-degree temperature difference.

607
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,000
If you look at the gradient, see.

608
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,000
What the f*** is that?

609
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,000
I'm going to climb a little bit.

610
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,000
Yeah, wait, hold on. Look at that.

611
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,000
Look, there's more. There's like one, two, three, four.

612
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:43,000
Yeah, almost looks like it's maybe emanating from something,

613
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,000
but I just can't tell.

614
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:51,000
And there's nothing visibly that would explain that.

615
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,000
I'm not quite sure what's causing these heat anomalies.

616
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,000
We have this cluster.

617
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,000
They're 40 degrees warmer than the surrounding area.

618
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,000
We need to understand what's going on here,

619
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,000
because this could be why this is such a hot spot

620
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,000
for these unusual sightings.

621
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,000
Armed with climbing gear,

622
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:11,000
the team heads to the location of these visual anomalies.

623
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,000
I think we're going to lose light before we get there.

624
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:14,000
Yeah.

625
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,000
I think we're close now.

626
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,000
Oh, f***, Nick. Nick, come this way.

627
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,000
What do you got?

628
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,000
It looks like a tunnel or a cave.

629
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,000
Can you turn the light down?

630
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,000
Yeah.

631
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,000
The team uncovers a three-foot wide hole,

632
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,000
which appears to be leading deep below the ground.

633
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,000
You know, we've had a cluster of sightings right around this mountain

634
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,000
and to have a cave system, you know, in that same area.

635
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,000
That's pretty interesting.

636
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,000
This is the most significant lead that we have.

637
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,000
We've come this far. Might as well be down there.

638
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,000
You go check it out.

639
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,000
And I agree. I think we've got no choice,

640
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,000
but to head in there right now.

641
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,000
A trail of evidence and sightings has led us from Florida to Wainsborough

642
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:10,000
to the mouth of this cave.

643
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,000
Would I prefer that it's daylight?

644
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,000
Sure, but it doesn't matter what time we go in

645
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,000
because it's always pitch black inside of a cave.

646
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,000
And there is no way I'm not going in.

647
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:25,000
It gets really tight down here and it's pretty hot.

648
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,000
Maybe that explains the temperature.

649
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,000
It just keeps getting smaller and tighter.

650
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,000
Just take it slow.

651
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,000
I don't know what we're getting ourselves into.

652
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,000
Yeah, this is something else, huh?

653
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:38,000
Nick and Sarah reach a depth of 50 feet,

654
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,000
where the passage narrows to only 20 inches high.

655
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,000
So this is just the tightest spot you're going through right now.

656
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,000
I'm a couple of feet behind you.

657
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,000
This is really steep.

658
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,000
I'm going to go down here.

659
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,000
I'm going to go down here.

660
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,000
I'm going to go down here.

661
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,000
This is really steep.

662
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,000
What the hell is going on?

663
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,000
I'm heading up this way all that way.

664
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,000
Let me go. Take a look.

665
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:08,000
What has a place like this got to do with the investigation?

666
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,000
Why has everything led us here?

667
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:15,000
Whoa.

668
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,000
Sarah, come check this out.

669
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,000
This place is huge.

670
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:22,000
Holy f***.

671
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,000
Let's go.

672
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,000
While searching the Waynesboro Archive,

673
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:39,000
Nick and Sarah uncovered one of the first reported UFO sightings

674
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,000
in the town's history.

675
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,000
Hi, Sarah, it's nice to meet you.

676
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,000
We've tracked down this guy David Chisholm,

677
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:49,000
who saw a UFO sighting here back in 1950.

678
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,000
Can you take us back to that day?

679
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,000
I looked up against the mound,

680
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:58,400
When I saw something very silver, it was flying slowly, and it didn't have any wings.

681
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:03,040
When I saw what it was, it shocked me.

682
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:10,080
It circled twice, and then after that it turned on its edge and it left here.

683
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:11,080
Warp speed.

684
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:12,080
Fast.

685
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:17,720
There have been a number of sightings in this area, particularly around the mountains.

686
00:36:17,720 --> 00:36:22,640
His story fits in with the other reports that we've been able to unearth.

687
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:29,640
What's going on here?

688
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:34,640
Holy ****.

689
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:39,640
What is this?

690
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:44,560
Nick and Sarah are deep inside a cave system below the Shenandoah Mountains, investigating

691
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:49,720
a pattern of sights and sounds that occurred on August 22, 2011.

692
00:36:49,720 --> 00:36:55,600
The cave system lies below the exact location where UFO sightings have clustered for decades.

693
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:56,600
It's huge.

694
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,600
Can you see the stalactites up there?

695
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,880
These literally take thousands of years to grow.

696
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:05,600
It's like another world.

697
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:10,000
What has a place like this got to do with the investigation?

698
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,720
Why is everything led us here?

699
00:37:12,720 --> 00:37:17,720
I'm surprised with all the debris that's on the side.

700
00:37:17,720 --> 00:37:20,440
It's a lot of loose rock.

701
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:21,440
Even this is loose.

702
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,440
Let me get a picture.

703
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,720
Yeah, look at all that down there.

704
00:37:26,720 --> 00:37:30,920
Oh, wow, look at this.

705
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:35,720
Basic physics, basic science tells you that stalactites shouldn't be growing sideways,

706
00:37:35,720 --> 00:37:39,640
because the way it's formed is almost like if you left the faucet on that drip, drip,

707
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,440
drip, drip, drip, drip, but of minerals not of water.

708
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,640
And what we're seeing here is the formation's horizontal.

709
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:49,080
This just doesn't seem normal.

710
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:52,920
You can see cracks here in the rocks.

711
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:57,120
The fact we've got cracks and stalactites that should be on the ceilings, but they're

712
00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:02,800
on the side or on the ground, something may just gone on here.

713
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:04,920
This doesn't look like it naturally grew here, right?

714
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,480
To me, it looks like this broke off from up there.

715
00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:09,640
I know the cave's collapsed.

716
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:13,800
The roofs fall in, but some of the rubble, it looks like it was blasted.

717
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:14,800
It looks like there was explosion.

718
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,560
Something to the sheer volume of rock that fell.

719
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,400
Whatever's gone on here, it's pretty serious from the looks of it.

720
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:25,400
Yeah, I mean, I'm having a hard time bathrooming what could possibly have caused this.

721
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,080
You know, maybe we're onto something big.

722
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,360
We've got some photos from Sarah and Nick from the field.

723
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:41,360
Can you pull those up?

724
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:42,360
On it.

725
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,360
The damage is pretty extensive.

726
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:46,360
It really is.

727
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:51,280
There was either a bomb went off in there or there was a major earthquake.

728
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,280
I can check the US Geological Survey.

729
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:55,280
They keep track of all that.

730
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:59,120
There's a lot of earthquakes on the Eastern Seaboard.

731
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,560
Small ones, usually kind of things that nobody notices.

732
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:03,560
Check this out.

733
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:07,280
5.8 magnitude earthquake in central Virginia.

734
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,280
Not going to believe the date.

735
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,280
23rd of August, 2011.

736
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:13,700
Same 24-hour period.

737
00:39:13,700 --> 00:39:15,200
You've got to be kidding me.

738
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:16,700
5.8 earthquake.

739
00:39:16,700 --> 00:39:19,000
That's a really rare magnitude for this area.

740
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,480
The biggest that had been hit in this area in 150 years.

741
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:27,760
Tens of millions of people from Florida to Maine felt this thing.

742
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:31,600
This is the earthquake that damaged the Washington Monument.

743
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:32,600
We've got video from inside.

744
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,600
Look at that rubble coming down.

745
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:41,600
This happened in the same 24-hour period as the cluster of sightings in Waynesboro.

746
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:46,960
How is this connected, if it's connected, to what we've been seeing so far?

747
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:51,600
Where did this earthquake originate?

748
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,520
Epicenter is Mineral, Virginia.

749
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:55,520
Where's that?

750
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,020
50 miles from Waynesboro.

751
00:39:57,020 --> 00:40:02,840
50 miles from Waynesboro on the same 24-hour period.

752
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,840
We have unexplained sounds that have never been heard before.

753
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:12,380
Just miles away from an eyewitness seeing flaming orbs in the sky.

754
00:40:12,380 --> 00:40:18,520
We track sightings of those orbs up the coast to Waynesboro, Virginia, where there's a cluster

755
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,200
of sightings.

756
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:25,320
And that just so happens to be the epicenter of the most significant seismic event on the

757
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,440
east coast of the United States.

758
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:28,800
This is amazing.

759
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:32,560
That's coincidence on top of coincidence on top of coincidence.

760
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:37,000
If this is a coincidence, it's a big coincidence.

761
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:45,320
We've potentially unlocked the first piece in a much bigger pattern, a whole new avenue

762
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:51,360
of exploration that may be moving us closer to answering the question, have we made contact

763
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:53,640
with extraterrestrials?

764
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:57,240
What are we looking at here?

765
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:02,640
Next time on Contact.

766
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:06,640
400 earthquakes in 14 days in Mexico.

767
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:10,720
Dozens of people claim to have seen an unidentified flying object.

768
00:41:10,720 --> 00:41:15,760
Look how many there are.

769
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:16,760
These guys sound scared.

770
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:20,160
There is something going on in the jungles of Rio Blanca.

771
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:25,280
He doesn't know what it is.

772
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,640
This is a substance known as star jelly.

773
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:31,440
This jelly is found in one specific area in the jungle.

774
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,440
Look at this.

775
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,120
This just blows my mind.

776
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:39,280
Dozens of people claim to have seen an unidentified flying object.

777
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:43,040
I think it's time to get a second team on the ground at Chile.

778
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:47,280
Clearly, nobody could deny the existence of a paranormal.

779
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:48,280
That's incredible.

780
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,960
One that talks about this is a plane and the other that talks about a paranormal.

781
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:53,560
Does that look like a plane to you?
