00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,840
On this edition of Psychex, a deadly force of nature changed her life.

2
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,440
Dreaming, seeing pictures.

3
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:12,560
Now police need her help.

4
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:14,520
And know what can find him.

5
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,160
To speak with the dead.

6
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,920
I'm an eight foot of water, come get me.

7
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:19,920
Ben.

8
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,560
I can tell you that the earth is going to open up.

9
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:24,320
His predictions have come true.

10
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:29,520
Now, he says there are catastrophic changes coming in the year 2000.

11
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:34,000
And later, a connection to the past through dreams.

12
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,200
There are unusual special properties about these ancient monuments.

13
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,040
Scientists call it the Dragon Project.

14
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,200
And then, is this an alien craft?

15
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:49,600
New information suggests it's something else.

16
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:56,080
Plus, a remarkable story about the power of healing.

17
00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:01,360
And why did the government stop its search for extraterrestrial life?

18
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:34,080
Welcome to Sightings.

19
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:35,880
I'm Tim White.

20
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:39,920
There are certain people who seem to have a special psychic gift.

21
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:44,960
They don't advertise with a 900 number or with a sign in their front yard.

22
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:50,520
They are a remarkable group of super sensitive individuals who all seem to share a similar

23
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,280
psychic power.

24
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:59,040
But the way they believe they became psychic is as different as each individual.

25
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,560
We don't know how it works.

26
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,480
I mean, if we did, it wouldn't be mysterious.

27
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,480
If we knew how it worked, it wouldn't be controversial.

28
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,120
If we knew how it worked, we'd be using it reliably.

29
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,560
Let's face it, we don't know very much about how anything up here really works.

30
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,520
Greta Alexander is one of the world's most respected psychics.

31
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,800
She's gained the trust of law enforcement officials worldwide for her astounding work

32
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,520
as a psychic detective.

33
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,680
Greta claims her mysterious abilities came to her suddenly in an instant.

34
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,800
The day she was struck by lightning.

35
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:38,080
After that thing has begun happening, I would sense and I would know and I would feel.

36
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:45,400
And from that moment on, I began dreaming, seeing pictures, which I know now as clairvoyance,

37
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:52,120
and hearing, which is clairaudio, and just feeling inside, which is clairicensory.

38
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,960
That's how it all started.

39
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:59,200
For the past 30 years, Greta has been sought after by police and victims' families for

40
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,640
help with unsolved cases.

41
00:03:01,640 --> 00:03:04,280
But sometimes Greta is the initiator.

42
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,340
She'll have a vision seemingly out of nowhere.

43
00:03:07,340 --> 00:03:12,920
That was the case in 1993, when a cataclysmic flood swept through Kelowna, Illinois, and

44
00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:14,920
Greta saw one of its victims.

45
00:03:14,920 --> 00:03:17,160
And he was just waiting for it to come and get him.

46
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,160
Yeah, that's exactly what you told me.

47
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:20,160
Yeah.

48
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,160
Come and get me.

49
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,160
Come and get me, John.

50
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,320
Come and get me.

51
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,840
The last thing I remember is, you know, his patch on the side of his shirt hanging on,

52
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,480
trying to get him above water, which I couldn't.

53
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,960
We both went under.

54
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,360
I couldn't hang on any longer and I had to let him go.

55
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,720
Time assy was only 23.

56
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:45,400
He was a rising star in the Kelowna Police Department with a happy home life and a baby

57
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:46,400
on the way.

58
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:52,280
But it all ended for Ty in a rush of river water during a rescue operation.

59
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,360
He was in the air when I seen him.

60
00:03:54,360 --> 00:04:01,280
And he hit the ground and right at the water line and started floating out into the river.

61
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,400
He became unconscious.

62
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,560
And that's what caused Ty to not be able to save him so.

63
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,880
By dawn, all hope of finding Ty alive was lost while his fellow officers dragged the

64
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,400
river for his body.

65
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,120
200 miles away, Greta had a vision.

66
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,920
One of the people had called my office and had said that they had heard on the radio

67
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:27,080
that there was an officer that was down or that was in the water and needed help.

68
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:34,040
So immediately I felt that I was Ty and immediately I had to call to tell them.

69
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:43,840
As we talked, we went on and she used the terms I'm in the water and I'm falling.

70
00:04:43,840 --> 00:04:44,840
I hit my head.

71
00:04:44,840 --> 00:04:49,360
I think John was a little mind boggled by the whole thing and you could tell in his voice.

72
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,520
I had more important things I thought at that time.

73
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:56,440
We had 200 rescuers, we had dive teams, dog teams, we had helicopters in the air.

74
00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:01,320
So we had a lot of things that was going on that I felt was way more important at that

75
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:02,520
time.

76
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:08,120
That afternoon, John Swan was continuing to direct recovery operations from shore.

77
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,840
Greta was home trying to stick to her normal routine but the vision stayed with her.

78
00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:18,360
Many times even when I'm working a case, I'll be making spaghetti, be cooking in the kitchen

79
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:27,640
or doing other things, holding the telephone up to my ear, running the vacuum or putting

80
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,440
clothes in the laundry and yet directing the people.

81
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,400
You separate yourself.

82
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,600
Your mind you separate yourself.

83
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,880
But back in Kelowna, the loss of Ty Massey hit the town hard.

84
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:44,200
His family waited in the painful limbo of not knowing.

85
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:51,080
It was unbelievable to think that you lost a child was unbearable but to think that your

86
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:57,360
child was in the river and no one can find him, it's indescribable.

87
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:02,920
Greta continued to call the Kelowna authorities, trying to convince someone, anyone, that she

88
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,800
knew where to look for Ty.

89
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:09,680
Finally, the skeptical fire chief had to admit that Greta's visions were proving to be very

90
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:10,680
accurate.

91
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,240
I'm an eight foot of water, come get me.

92
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:19,280
I was so upset with John, he just wouldn't do what I told him to do.

93
00:06:19,280 --> 00:06:23,920
I didn't let all this known to everyone because I didn't want to basically the public to get

94
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:28,320
the wrong question that John's one uses psychics to do all his rescue.

95
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,560
I said, that's the case, we might as well eliminate a lot of our equipment and just have

96
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,160
Greta come to our fire station.

97
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:38,080
And I just felt like I got to go up there and do this because he isn't doing it.

98
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,680
I picked up the cell phone and I was talking and it was Greta again.

99
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,600
She says, John, she stopped for a second and she says, you're near the water aren't you?

100
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,400
And I'll stand right at the river.

101
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,640
And I said, yes, I'm next to the river.

102
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,640
She stopped for a second, she says, I'm just down from that big yellow green thing or that

103
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:03,720
big yellow thing or green structure or something big and yellow by you.

104
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,080
And I go, hmm, I got her this time.

105
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:12,240
I said, okay, we're going to go back out and thanks Greta, I hung up the phone.

106
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,400
And I said, she's messed up this time.

107
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:18,040
I turned around and there was a big yellow green fire truck right behind me.

108
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,400
And I go, oh, wow.

109
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:25,680
You know, so at that time, I'm getting very nervous.

110
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:30,200
And because there's too many things she's saying that made sense.

111
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:31,880
Greta had gotten through.

112
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:36,000
All that was left was to guide the chief to Thai Massey.

113
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,080
I told one of my new firefighters, get a pike pole, which is a pole with a hook on it, about

114
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,400
12, 15 foot long.

115
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:47,080
Go down to the third brush pile above the railroad bridge and get inside the brush pile.

116
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,440
And you have to go deep about eight foot down and hook time out seeing pulling out.

117
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,760
They went up to the North command post, got a pike pole, went down to that brush pile,

118
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,680
reached in and pulled Thai out.

119
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,400
Greta takes very little credit for her work.

120
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:06,560
She says she gives herself over to a higher power, which she calls her angels.

121
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:11,400
I always thank my angels because they bring it to me.

122
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:20,560
And I always bless them and the family because I think if that were me, I would want them

123
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:26,480
to leave no stone unturned in order to close that door.

124
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:32,840
It's actually relatively common that people who see themselves as gifted view their gifts

125
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:38,440
as being not really their own, but something brought to them by spirit guides.

126
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:44,480
What we have to realize is that psychic ability when it comes to the surface is not that easy

127
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:45,920
to deal with.

128
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,440
But Greta is at peace with her ability.

129
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:53,520
Although she first saw Thai as a drowning man, gasping for his last breath, months later

130
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:58,240
she had another vision of Thai, reaching out from beyond the grave.

131
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,560
I think she called to our house.

132
00:09:01,560 --> 00:09:08,080
She said that she had saw Thai and I can't remember exact words, but said he was so excited

133
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:12,560
it was like he had something to announce, something to say.

134
00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:18,800
And I just started crying and I said, Greta, we just had our grandson.

135
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,280
And that was announcement from spirit.

136
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:27,520
God had said, Thai's baby had just been born.

137
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:34,520
A new life.

138
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,560
Coming up next on Cytings.

139
00:09:36,560 --> 00:09:39,080
We are now going to start seeing a brand new pattern.

140
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:46,880
There are episodes of very rapid change occurring in the earth.

141
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:52,240
In 1993, Cytings introduced viewers to futurist Gordon Michael Scalgan.

142
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:57,200
He made some disturbing predictions about major earth changes that would soon begin

143
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,040
to shift our planet's tectonic plates.

144
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:06,160
Well, beginning with the Northridge, California earthquake, January 17th of 1994, a pattern

145
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:12,280
of seismic earth changes seems to support Scalgan's predictions.

146
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:13,640
The future.

147
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:18,720
We want to know what it holds, if only for the reassurance that our lives on earth will

148
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,920
be safe from catastrophe.

149
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:26,280
But certain changes to our planet are on the horizon, according to futurist Gordon Michael

150
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:27,640
Scalgan.

151
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:32,360
I can tell you that the earth is going to open up in California and I can tell you exactly

152
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:33,920
where it will open up.

153
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:39,560
Scalgan made this prediction in early 1993, nearly one year before the devastating Northridge

154
00:10:39,560 --> 00:10:41,600
quake.

155
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,840
It will occur in the greater Los Angeles region.

156
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:53,480
The bridges and highways, especially the bridges that cross other bridges, will come down.

157
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,960
The damage will be extensive.

158
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:58,760
Scalgan was right.

159
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:03,840
Los Angeles was rocked by the worst earthquake ever recorded in the area.

160
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:08,920
But we anxiously returned to Scalgan's rural New Hampshire retreat to find out if the monster

161
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,240
quake had altered his bleak outlook for the future.

162
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,160
The Northridge was a quite different quake.

163
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,600
The most significant thing was that it was a vertical quake, which we had been predicting

164
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,200
for two years.

165
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,480
The warning was watch for vertical quakes.

166
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:30,360
When they start, then the domino effect will occur, in particular 94 and 95.

167
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,720
And then it will increase each year literally tenfold.

168
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:40,200
So by 96 and 97, it literally will change the face of the earth.

169
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:45,200
The result of these cataclysmic earth changes are illustrated in Scalgan's future map of

170
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,520
the United States.

171
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:51,200
It shows a terrifying version of America, much of it underwater as we approach the year

172
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:52,200
2000.

173
00:11:52,200 --> 00:12:02,000
If I look to the year 98, 99, 2000, what I see by that time is that many of the major

174
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,680
changes have already occurred.

175
00:12:05,680 --> 00:12:12,280
The Ring of Fire is the predominant pattern or the predominant region of the globe that

176
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,400
I'm focused on.

177
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:19,520
The entire western coast of North America falls well within this Ring of Fire.

178
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:23,920
It's a huge section of the Earth's crust made up of highly active plates, which lie

179
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:25,760
underneath the Pacific Ocean.

180
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:34,160
The next major warning sign that would indicate significant unprecedented changes for America

181
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,440
will occur in the Cascades region.

182
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:42,000
Should Mount Rainier become active, then we will see a breaking up of the complete west

183
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:47,600
coast as to make islands where there was permanent land mass.

184
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:52,400
Scalgan's vision may seem alarmist to many, but the sobering truth is that reports of

185
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,800
significant earth changes are on the rise.

186
00:12:55,800 --> 00:13:00,960
There have been an estimated 20,000 earthquakes and volcanic eruptions within the Ring of

187
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:06,400
Fire in the past year, including major disasters in Indonesia and the Sea of Japan.

188
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:11,400
The Ring of Fire has been active, but it's accelerating.

189
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,000
We are now going to start seeing a brand new pattern.

190
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:19,600
The new pattern is that areas that were never active, where we never expected they were

191
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:24,800
false, we're going to now start seeing land movement there.

192
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:29,840
Perhaps the most frightening of all is the fact that mainstream seismologists and geologists

193
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,760
are also learning support to Scalgan's theories.

194
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:37,240
Thomas Henye is director of the Southern California Earthquake Center.

195
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:42,160
Up until very recently, the dominant view amongst geologists and geophysicists with respect

196
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,280
to how the world behaves is that things change gradually with time.

197
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:51,320
But we're beginning to see more and more that there are episodes of very rapid change occurring

198
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,840
in the earth from time to time.

199
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,240
Are we in just such a period of rapid change?

200
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:03,080
Is the domino effect in recent earth changes a harbinger of bigger catastrophes just months

201
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:04,080
away?

202
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,680
Gordon Michael Scalgan says yes, but also understands he has a responsibility for the

203
00:14:08,680 --> 00:14:10,200
predictions he makes.

204
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:17,880
I tend to wait until I see things occur over and over again in my visions before I make

205
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:24,200
a statement on it.

206
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,560
Dyer predictions about the future of planet earth may grab the headlines, but not all

207
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,360
the news coming from futurist is bleak.

208
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,240
On upcoming editions of sightings, we'll bring you more predictions that offer hope for a

209
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,680
brighter future.

210
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:42,320
When sightings continues, natural location can affect people's behavior.

211
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:50,520
Is there something about virtual sight memory?

212
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:56,360
The pyramids, lords, Stonehenge, places of power that for centuries have had an inexplicable

213
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:57,720
attraction.

214
00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,720
What makes these places so special?

215
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,680
Earth scientist Paul Devereux believes sacred sites may give off an energy that affects

216
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,160
people subconsciously.

217
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:11,960
To prove his theory, Devereux is conducting a long-term experiment called the Dragon Project.

218
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:17,240
He's documenting the dreams of people who volunteer to sleep at sacred sites.

219
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,760
Why do people come from all over the world to stare at this pile of rocks?

220
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:27,120
Why do people have spontaneous hallucinations inside this 5,000-year-old gathering?

221
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:32,320
Paul Devereux believes it's not history or superstition that creates a sacred site.

222
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:37,320
Is there something in the rock, some kind of magnetic energy or radiation that changes

223
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,600
people physically and emotionally?

224
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:46,320
Is there something about the actual sight memory, if you like, the actual place memory

225
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:51,960
of a monument that can affect us in subtle ways that we're not directly conscious of?

226
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,880
But how can a scientist prove that energy from these sites affects the subconscious?

227
00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:00,400
Devereux believes the way in is through our dreams.

228
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:05,480
Dreaming is the one universal experience shared by every man, woman and child since the beginning

229
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:06,480
of time.

230
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,880
While the physical body rests, the mind shuttles through a surreal movie that's meaning is

231
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:12,800
still not understood.

232
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:18,800
Are we simply processing random brain waves reacting to a rich dessert eaten before bedtime?

233
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:23,280
Or are dreams the window into the essence of our consciousness?

234
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,400
Devereux believes the latter and is testing his theory by having volunteers spend the

235
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,560
night at several sacred sites throughout England.

236
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:35,800
When rapid eye movement is observed, the volunteers are awakened and their dreams recorded.

237
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:40,400
In your own time, Tom, you can tell me a little bit of what you've been experiencing.

238
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,400
All right.

239
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:43,400
Amazing.

240
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:49,400
We're coming clear.

241
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:53,840
We're not interpreting their dream for them, but what we are doing is looking at a site

242
00:16:53,840 --> 00:17:00,480
and if we say, OK, there's 20 people, perhaps 40 dreams here.

243
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:05,240
Is there anything in those dreams that is specific just to the site?

244
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:10,160
World renowned dream expert Dr. Stanley Kripner is assisting in the collation and analysis

245
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:11,560
of the dreams.

246
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:16,120
Kripner has seen the effects of radiation on dream subjects in the laboratory, but this

247
00:17:16,120 --> 00:17:18,320
is the first ever field study.

248
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:22,520
Together, they visit the site's chosen for the Dragon Project.

249
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:26,720
I've measured the interior of this chamber and also the King's Chamber and the Great

250
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:32,000
Pyramid in Egypt, and they're identical because, of course, the King's Chamber is also clad

251
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,920
in granite, aswan granite.

252
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,520
And it just makes us wonder a little if that was a factor to help create an environment

253
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:43,400
where altered states could develop visionary states.

254
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,760
Because on the Dragon Project, we have had a few examples of spontaneous occurrences

255
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:55,360
of people suddenly having very vivid, very short-lived hallucinations, and they've always

256
00:17:55,360 --> 00:17:58,360
been in areas of high radiation.

257
00:17:58,360 --> 00:18:04,680
I think that he is one of the few people who is looking into the impact and the influence

258
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:10,640
of natural radiation on people's consciousness.

259
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,480
Madren Well is another supernatural site.

260
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,600
Since the sixth century, people have come here, looked into the waters, and reportedly

261
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:18,920
seen the future.

262
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:23,120
Madren Well was the inspiration for the entire project, because it was here that Devereux

263
00:18:23,120 --> 00:18:29,120
himself had an extraordinary dream.

264
00:18:29,120 --> 00:18:34,120
I had a dream in which I just saw a pair of hands just in front of me, and they were

265
00:18:34,120 --> 00:18:36,560
dipping into the water.

266
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:42,960
And the water came up dripping, and in the dream, the hands massaged around the eyes

267
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,000
in a particular way.

268
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:49,480
And I immediately woke up and I went over to the water in the corner and went through

269
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:53,360
those very actions that I'd seen in the dream.

270
00:18:53,360 --> 00:18:57,960
Madren Wood Dragon Project volunteers have the same dream.

271
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:02,400
If so, this could prove his theory of site-specific dreaming.

272
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:07,820
At Carnuni, the ruins of an ancient Cornish village, Devereux and Krippner examined the

273
00:19:07,820 --> 00:19:10,320
site of that evening's dream session.

274
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:16,160
The granite, because we're underground, the granite walls, the ceiling, these great slabs

275
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:23,160
here give out a lot of radioactivity, so the radon level in here is much higher than outside.

276
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:28,760
We do have evidence from psychology that if you put somebody in a special chamber and

277
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:34,360
alter the level of radioactivity or alter the electrical field, they will begin to have

278
00:19:34,360 --> 00:19:35,800
unusual experiences.

279
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:40,840
They will see things, they will feel things, they will even sometimes hear voices.

280
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:46,520
So I'm here to give advice in terms of collecting, scoring dreams and to see what objects come

281
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:53,520
up in the dreams and to find out if indeed there are certain clusters of themes and objects

282
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:59,280
that relate to one place that do not relate to another geographical location.

283
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:04,200
That night, volunteers for the dream session arrived at Carnuni to begin their part of

284
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:05,080
the research project.

285
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:07,320
Tom?

286
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:08,320
Oh.

287
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:13,320
Can you just gradually move to Circus and it's all, yeah?

288
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,320
Don't disturb yourself too much, yeah?

289
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,320
Yeah.

290
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:17,320
Yeah.

291
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,320
I think you've been having a dream.

292
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:28,320
Well, hold on for a moment while I just turn the tape recorder on and then you can tell

293
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:30,440
me about it, okay?

294
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,920
What is that?

295
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,920
The Dragon Project is ongoing and will continue into 1995.

296
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:44,560
While the analysis is not complete, some intriguing information is already surfacing.

297
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:51,560
If Paul does get some very striking results, it's yet another example of how a natural

298
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,520
location can affect people's behavior.

299
00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:01,040
If the natural radiation in these sacred sites is proven to have a measurable effect

300
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,400
on our minds, the implications are far reaching.

301
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,760
Are we truly the product of our environment?

302
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:10,320
And what other forces of nature are shaping our subconscious?

303
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:14,680
Will it one day be shown that the phosphorus in the seeds, the chlorophyll in the rainforests,

304
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:20,180
and sadly the ozone in the air make us who we are?

305
00:21:20,180 --> 00:21:24,040
Paul Devereux expects to complete the first stage of the Dragon Project within the next

306
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,160
year.

307
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,880
All of the dreams that he's collected will then be turned over to Dr. Stanley Kripner

308
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:34,600
for collation and analysis at the Saybrook Institute in San Francisco.

309
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:40,080
Coming up next on CITINGS, new theories on a UFO crash in Canada.

310
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,600
And a boy beats the odds with a miracle cure.

311
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:50,600
Later, why did the government abruptly shut down the search for extraterrestrials?

312
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:58,080
On past episodes, CITINGS investigated videotape of an alleged UFO supplied by an anonymous

313
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,960
source known only as Guardian.

314
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:06,280
At first, the so-called Guardian tape of what appears to be a UFO crash landing looked very

315
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:07,680
convincing.

316
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:14,600
But as we move deeper into the investigation, our questions started to outnumber the answers.

317
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:20,280
These images were touted as some of the best photographic evidence of UFOs ever recorded.

318
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:25,080
A videotape, with several short scenes cut together, arrived at the CITINGS offices

319
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,080
with no return address.

320
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,920
The label on the videotape had only one word, Guardian.

321
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:32,600
Who was Guardian?

322
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:39,760
And had he, or she, actually captured a UFO crash landing on videotape?

323
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:45,160
Some experts now believe Guardian was part of the U.S. government's rumored UFO disinformation

324
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:46,600
program.

325
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:51,840
They believe that hoaxes and absurd tabloid headlines are planted by the Pentagon to discredit

326
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:57,040
ufologists and keep the pride and eyes of the public away from what they're really doing.

327
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,920
CITINGS has conducted numerous experiments where we found it relatively simple to create

328
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,160
an intriguing UFO photograph.

329
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,680
Is our government doing the same?

330
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:11,240
In 1991, a small community outside of Ottawa, Canada, was thought to be the site of Guardian's

331
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:12,240
elaborate hoax.

332
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:19,160
What you have is a little rural community in eastern Ontario close to Ottawa called Manion

333
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:20,160
Corners.

334
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,600
A little tiny place, maybe 50 or 60 families lived there.

335
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:31,800
And in 1991, somebody decided that they would put together this UFO hoax and put out a video.

336
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:37,520
After the videotape was distributed worldwide, official looking documents began to surface.

337
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,440
Some were written on Canadian government stationery.

338
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:45,400
Then still photographs of supposedly extraterrestrial creatures were released.

339
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,840
These were an obvious tip-off that a hoax was being perpetrated.

340
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:54,120
So we enlisted the help of Mufon Canada's assistant director, Tom Theophanus, and photo

341
00:23:54,120 --> 00:23:56,280
analyst, Jeff Seino.

342
00:23:56,280 --> 00:24:00,760
The documents are purported to be Department of National Defense Canadian military documents,

343
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:04,240
but just a quick read of them shows that they're obviously falsified.

344
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,840
You see statements like insatiable sex drive.

345
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,920
Their women prefer human partners.

346
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,400
Blonde types infiltrate the artistic centres of Canada.

347
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,200
It appears they need artists to get the message out.

348
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:20,680
It's obviously such hokey documents that there's no doubt that these are falsified.

349
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:25,760
Once we know that, we have to go back and take a look at the video and say, since we

350
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:31,800
know that Guardian is a hoaxer, is there anything exceptional in this video that could not have

351
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,680
been hoaxed by a fairly motivated person?

352
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:35,840
I couldn't find anything.

353
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:40,640
Well, and here you see two light sources.

354
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:48,680
One coming in from the area of the flares is producing this reddish glow.

355
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:53,680
And the source that's off, mainly off the ground, an external source of lighting.

356
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:59,360
And you also have the shrub light on top, which you can see the actual shape of it.

357
00:24:59,360 --> 00:25:04,000
Here we're seeing what appear to be four road flares.

358
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:10,040
You can see the smoke wafting off toward this direction the same way that we see on the

359
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:11,800
UFO later on.

360
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,600
Over here the UFO is badly overexposed.

361
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,600
You really can't make it out of any detail.

362
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:21,840
There's no motion there, nothing but a strobe light on top that's anything out of the ordinary.

363
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,840
What would it take to duplicate these images?

364
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:29,420
Sightings asked a special effects team to try and recreate the Guardian video.

365
00:25:29,420 --> 00:25:34,280
They used a scale model helicopter, an asbestos line truck, and road flares.

366
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,760
Okay, you want to show me?

367
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:41,440
And the team placed the helicopter in a position similar to that on the Guardian video.

368
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:47,640
Next, technicians set up a strobe light and road flares to match those used in Canada.

369
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:51,840
Special effects smoke was added, and the result is not unlike that in the original Guardian

370
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:53,280
video.

371
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,720
Depending on how much smoke was added, the silhouette of the helicopter could look like

372
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:03,200
a UFO crash landing.

373
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:08,520
We tried to improve on these images using a pickup truck and the same basic flare and

374
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:09,520
smoke effects.

375
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:14,600
Again, the images were similar, but like the sophistication of the original tape, the

376
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,680
alien creature was much easier to duplicate.

377
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:23,400
A 10 year old girl, a rubber head, and black and white film was all we needed.

378
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:28,360
To the untrained eye, these creatures might seem like the real thing, and that's just

379
00:26:28,360 --> 00:26:30,720
what the hoaxers want you to believe.

380
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:31,920
But who are they?

381
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,480
Psychotherapist Dr. Howard Schachter explains his theory.

382
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:40,960
It's been said, of course, that hoaxerism is all about personal gain.

383
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:45,960
Very often the hoaxer is aware of what's at stake.

384
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:50,520
The individuals are aware that there's something they're going to gain from all of this.

385
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,360
They want to be a part of this great phenomenon.

386
00:26:53,360 --> 00:26:58,840
And they're used to, let's say, aggrandizing their self-esteem by virtue of seeing that

387
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,080
the Guardian event is on every TV channel.

388
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:07,840
But is it realistic to believe that the Guardian videotape, the forged documents, and the photographs

389
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:11,520
were all the work of one individual longing for fame?

390
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:18,520
Or could it be that Guardian is part of a larger conspiracy fueled by our own government?

391
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,680
How do experts separate reality from hoax?

392
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,080
Joining me now is Michael Lindemann.

393
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:28,360
He is an independent analyst whose company, the 2020 Group, conducts in-depth UFO investigations.

394
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:34,200
There are a lot of people who believe that disinformation is part of the conspiracy and

395
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:38,640
cover-up that surrounds the dismissal of UFOs by governments.

396
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:43,920
Is there any information that disinformation exists in the videos themselves that somehow

397
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,120
high tech is being used to persuade or dissuade people?

398
00:27:47,120 --> 00:27:55,120
I think that we have seen some possibly extraordinary videotape that was probably, you could say,

399
00:27:55,120 --> 00:27:56,120
disinformation.

400
00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,280
The so-called Guardian case from Canada would be, I think, in that category.

401
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:04,320
Is there any evidence that any government is involved in that sort of disinformation?

402
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:09,240
Well, I can't speak for the videotape part of it, but as for other forms of disinformation,

403
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:16,160
I would have to say almost certainly yes, governments are involved in creating the illusion

404
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,760
of certain events or effects that are probably hoaxes.

405
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:25,200
If it's possible to penetrate the hoax immediately, and if UFO researchers proclaim it a hoax,

406
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,480
I think in some ways that helps the cause.

407
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,960
At least it proves that not everyone is duped by this.

408
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,080
Michael Lindemann, thank you very much for talking with us.

409
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:36,160
Thank you.

410
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:40,800
And we'll be back with more sightings in just a moment.

411
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:46,680
When Sightings Continues, a remarkable story of a young boy who baffled doctors.

412
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:53,000
He thought he was going to die.

413
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:58,400
Prayer, a time of meditation and reflection, is part of nearly every belief system in the

414
00:28:58,400 --> 00:28:59,480
world.

415
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:04,120
For millennia, people have drawn great strength from these private moments of concentrated

416
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:05,120
thought.

417
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:11,160
Now, physician Larry Dossy is finding tangible evidence that many forms of prayer can not

418
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:15,440
only heal the spirit, but heal the body as well.

419
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,120
A loved one teeters on the brink of death.

420
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,680
When doctors do everything they can, the family feels helpless.

421
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,320
All they can do is pray.

422
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:27,800
But now, clinical tests are proving that those prayers can work miracles.

423
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,320
They did for six-year-old Taylor Hall.

424
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:34,720
It was very tragic for our family.

425
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,880
It was a bright sunny day.

426
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,640
He took a skate out.

427
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:49,120
And then my son, Chris, was in the front bedroom and he heard the truck screech.

428
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,560
You could hear the truck coming down the corner.

429
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,160
You could hear it as it kind of screech.

430
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:54,960
Because Taylor was coming down the sidewalk.

431
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:59,440
And as he hit the sidewalk, he hit the patch of rocks and he couldn't stop himself in time.

432
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:04,720
Fire department came and ambulances came.

433
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,440
He was very sick.

434
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:13,560
I think you know that the minute that you see someone who is very hurt, you know it

435
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,440
right away.

436
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,800
He was in a pool of blood.

437
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:24,520
He lost over four and a half units in the street, which is almost half your body's blood.

438
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:33,760
And he was ripped open from his navel all the way to the back.

439
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,960
Young Taylor Hall's life hung in the balance.

440
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:41,440
Although he had the best in medical care, no one could guarantee that the best would

441
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,040
be good enough.

442
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:47,640
Could the prayers of his family make a difference?

443
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:53,280
Near Santa Fe, New Mexico, one place stands as a testament to the power of prayer.

444
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:59,240
For nearly 200 years, people have come to El Sanjuario de Chimayo to pray, often leaving

445
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:03,000
behind the crutches and wheelchairs they no longer need.

446
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:09,920
Dr. Larry Dossi studies the accounts of healing by prayer that continue to this day.

447
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:15,120
The question for us in science is, can we go beyond people's stories and make anything

448
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,240
scientific out of the personal account?

449
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:19,600
That's the great challenge.

450
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:25,360
Dr. Dossi has written the best-selling book that chronicles the positive effects of prayer,

451
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:31,160
a subject considered entirely anecdotal and unsubstantiated until just a few years ago.

452
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:35,840
I discovered, however, back in the mid-80s that there were some studies coming out showing

453
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:40,360
that if you take prayer into the clinic or the hospital or the laboratory and test it

454
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:45,960
pretty much like you would in new medication, you can actually show that prayer does something.

455
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:51,920
Religious affiliation and religious belief are not factors in these experiments.

456
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:57,400
In the 1980s, medical researchers in Oregon devised an experiment to test the power of

457
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,840
prayer under controlled laboratory conditions.

458
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:06,600
In a double-blind study, test tubes were filled with equal amounts of yeast and sealed.

459
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:11,120
Half of the tubes were prayed over by volunteers, half were not.

460
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:15,680
Researchers were amazed that there was a significant difference in the tubes that had been prayed

461
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:16,840
over.

462
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:23,040
You can do this with extreme accuracy and the differences in the growth rates are quite

463
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,840
profound, favoring those that get prayed for.

464
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:30,920
It frequently is the case in the history of medicine that we have known that something

465
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,320
works before we know how it works.

466
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:34,720
Penicillin was an example.

467
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:39,440
When penicillin was discovered, no one had a clue about actually how it worked, but we

468
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:43,360
honored the data, we did the studies and we could show that it did something.

469
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,440
We're at the same point with prayer.

470
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:51,040
We haven't the foggiest idea scientifically how it could work, but we have taken it into

471
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:52,040
the laboratory.

472
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:53,720
We have done the precise studies.

473
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,520
We have shown that it works.

474
00:32:56,520 --> 00:33:01,720
Obholstered by the remarkable results found in the yeast experiment, San Francisco General

475
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:06,160
Hospital launched its own power of prayer study.

476
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,480
Volunteers were asked to pray for patients they did not know.

477
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:13,200
393 patients were prayed for over a 10-month period.

478
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:17,280
We had the prayers do so only outside of hospital.

479
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:21,720
They never came inside of hospital and the patients never saw them.

480
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:28,480
And we didn't produce any standard prayer or prayer format.

481
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:32,840
After analyzing the data, the results were impressive.

482
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:38,280
The patients who received extra prayer from our groups outside of the hospital required

483
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:47,860
less diuretic therapy, less antibiotics, and had less cardiac arrest.

484
00:33:47,860 --> 00:33:53,220
In Riverside, California, Taylor Hall's family didn't know about the results of the San Francisco

485
00:33:53,220 --> 00:33:54,780
General study.

486
00:33:54,780 --> 00:33:57,220
They prayed because they felt they had to.

487
00:33:57,220 --> 00:34:00,420
Their little boy was dying.

488
00:34:00,420 --> 00:34:03,500
His entire pelvis was crushed under the tires.

489
00:34:03,500 --> 00:34:09,060
I had grave doubts about being able to put his intestinal tract back together.

490
00:34:09,060 --> 00:34:11,940
The damage was so extensive in the pelvic area.

491
00:34:11,940 --> 00:34:14,940
We had huge open wounds.

492
00:34:14,940 --> 00:34:18,700
Again, very susceptible to infection.

493
00:34:18,700 --> 00:34:23,980
There was a very good possibility that the infection that might have gotten in there

494
00:34:23,980 --> 00:34:26,540
would be the thing that would end up killing him.

495
00:34:26,540 --> 00:34:35,100
The next thing we were told was that if he made it through that, that there would be

496
00:34:35,100 --> 00:34:38,420
a possibility that one, he might not be able to have children.

497
00:34:38,420 --> 00:34:42,060
He might have to have a colostomy the rest of his life.

498
00:34:42,060 --> 00:34:45,660
His ability to walk might be impeded substantially.

499
00:34:45,660 --> 00:34:48,300
He thought he was going to die.

500
00:34:48,300 --> 00:34:53,980
I think that scared the nurses a little bit because they said when patients think that

501
00:34:53,980 --> 00:34:57,900
they're going to die, then it's pretty serious.

502
00:34:57,900 --> 00:35:03,300
But the family never lost their faith and dedication to prayer, that mysterious force

503
00:35:03,380 --> 00:35:09,300
that now has mainstream medicine rethinking its power to heal.

504
00:35:09,300 --> 00:35:15,100
The fact that prayer can work says that the consciousness, the human psyche, the mind

505
00:35:15,100 --> 00:35:17,980
can do something that brains can't do.

506
00:35:17,980 --> 00:35:22,940
Therefore, the mind must in some strange way be more than the brain and the body.

507
00:35:22,940 --> 00:35:29,700
The mind has some aspect, some quality, which can reach out through space and time as is

508
00:35:29,700 --> 00:35:34,980
evidence through prayer and make a difference at a distance.

509
00:35:34,980 --> 00:35:38,780
In the end, prayer may have been the difference for Taylor Hall.

510
00:35:38,780 --> 00:35:44,260
We were both at the hospital, Steve and I, I think, I know I did pray down the way to

511
00:35:44,260 --> 00:35:48,020
the hospital and the family prayed as a family.

512
00:35:48,020 --> 00:35:53,460
It just seemed we were all on the same level, doing the same thing for the same purpose

513
00:35:53,460 --> 00:35:56,460
and we all wanted the same thing and that was for Taylor to recover.

514
00:35:56,460 --> 00:36:03,540
And I'm fully convinced that that was every bit as important a part as what the doctors

515
00:36:03,540 --> 00:36:09,180
did, not to downplay what the doctors did, but I think they both worked together.

516
00:36:09,180 --> 00:36:16,420
And when after six days, after being ripped open in testines, all messed up, being, you

517
00:36:16,420 --> 00:36:21,620
know, his back ripped open, his pelvis broken, he was walking with no cast or pins.

518
00:36:21,620 --> 00:36:24,020
He just basically was kind of a miracle.

519
00:36:24,380 --> 00:36:26,700
Yeah, I think it was a miracle.

520
00:36:26,700 --> 00:36:31,380
I think if somebody else had got run over and nobody prayed, he could have died.

521
00:36:31,380 --> 00:36:35,700
It was my opinion that prayer helped 100%.

522
00:36:35,700 --> 00:36:40,100
A lot of the stuff that we were able to do as doctors was relatively simple, but the

523
00:36:40,100 --> 00:36:44,300
healing process was a long, extensive one with major injuries.

524
00:36:44,300 --> 00:36:46,620
He's fully recovered.

525
00:36:46,620 --> 00:36:48,540
He doesn't have anything major wrong with him.

526
00:36:48,540 --> 00:36:52,180
He gets headaches now and then, but everything else on his body is normal.

527
00:36:52,180 --> 00:36:56,140
In fact, he's above normal.

528
00:36:56,140 --> 00:36:57,460
He's skating again.

529
00:37:04,180 --> 00:37:07,860
The healing power of prayer is gaining a wider acceptance.

530
00:37:07,860 --> 00:37:13,540
Harvard, Duke, Tufts and Stanford universities have all conducted studies linking the power

531
00:37:13,540 --> 00:37:16,820
of the mind and the power to heal.

532
00:37:16,820 --> 00:37:20,820
When sightings returns, our government was on a search for ET contact.

533
00:37:20,820 --> 00:37:21,820
Why did they stop?

534
00:37:21,820 --> 00:37:30,060
The alien signals are coming from an extraterrestrial intelligence somewhere.

535
00:37:30,060 --> 00:37:36,380
In 1992, on the 500th anniversary of Columbus's voyage to the new world, NASA embarked on

536
00:37:36,380 --> 00:37:39,420
its own voyage to deep space.

537
00:37:39,420 --> 00:37:44,700
They devised a program called SETI, Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence.

538
00:37:44,700 --> 00:37:45,740
Their mission?

539
00:37:45,740 --> 00:37:52,820
To use the world's most powerful telescopes to search for signs of life in outer space.

540
00:37:52,820 --> 00:37:58,940
I think if our government knew that we got signals, a dedicated signal from outer space

541
00:37:58,940 --> 00:38:02,140
somewhere, they'd clamp a lid on it.

542
00:38:02,140 --> 00:38:05,300
After less than a year, Congress pulled a plug on SETI.

543
00:38:05,300 --> 00:38:09,340
Some insiders claim it was because SETI had made contact and the government didn't want

544
00:38:09,340 --> 00:38:12,020
us to know what they knew.

545
00:38:12,020 --> 00:38:14,020
The powers of being knew I was talking to you.

546
00:38:14,020 --> 00:38:16,100
There would be a high price for me to pay.

547
00:38:16,100 --> 00:38:20,300
Our anonymous source is an engineer inside the space program.

548
00:38:20,300 --> 00:38:23,940
He's been warned not to go public with what he knows about SETI.

549
00:38:23,940 --> 00:38:28,420
He recalls an earlier time when there were fewer secrets and higher hopes.

550
00:38:28,420 --> 00:38:31,300
If they get nothing, it's been a worthwhile venture because we've tried.

551
00:38:31,300 --> 00:38:35,260
If they get something, it'll be the greatest discovery of mankind.

552
00:38:35,260 --> 00:38:40,900
The search for extraterrestrial intelligence was launched October 14, 1992.

553
00:38:40,900 --> 00:38:44,500
And radio telescopes were aimed at the stars.

554
00:38:44,500 --> 00:38:49,700
Scientists and engineers listened to the cacophony of space noise, searching for radio signals

555
00:38:49,700 --> 00:38:53,540
that might indicate the presence of another advanced civilization.

556
00:38:53,540 --> 00:38:59,300
It was used pretty much just like any other intelligence agency would use eavesdropping

557
00:38:59,300 --> 00:39:01,860
equipment except it was pointed out towards space.

558
00:39:01,860 --> 00:39:03,500
SETI was a breakthrough.

559
00:39:03,500 --> 00:39:08,500
After decades of rumors about covert UFO projects, the United States government not only publicly

560
00:39:08,500 --> 00:39:13,060
acknowledged the possibility of intelligent life in outer space, but agreed it was a possibility

561
00:39:13,060 --> 00:39:16,060
worth spending $100 million to explore.

562
00:39:16,060 --> 00:39:22,100
It's very hard to believe that the government would allow something this extraordinary to

563
00:39:22,100 --> 00:39:26,020
be released to the general public without scrutiny and censorship.

564
00:39:26,020 --> 00:39:31,580
Almost as soon as SETI went online, our anonymous source claims that scientists started receiving

565
00:39:31,580 --> 00:39:33,820
intelligent signals from deep space.

566
00:39:33,820 --> 00:39:38,660
They called these artificial radio waves hits.

567
00:39:38,660 --> 00:39:40,540
There were hits that were taken seriously.

568
00:39:40,540 --> 00:39:46,580
There were three, four hits to my knowledge that were strong and it could potentially

569
00:39:46,580 --> 00:39:55,900
be a signal from an extraterrestrial intelligence on a foreign body in space.

570
00:39:55,900 --> 00:40:01,220
Located in the Mojave Desert at Fort Irwin, California, Goldstone Station is a quiet

571
00:40:01,220 --> 00:40:06,940
isolated place where scientists have seclusion and military security.

572
00:40:06,940 --> 00:40:10,780
It's RF quiet, which means there's not a lot of background noise when they're looking

573
00:40:10,780 --> 00:40:13,780
for signals and it's in an optimum area.

574
00:40:13,780 --> 00:40:15,300
It's very dry.

575
00:40:15,300 --> 00:40:17,220
It doesn't get cold.

576
00:40:17,220 --> 00:40:20,180
It's really ideal for this type of search.

577
00:40:20,180 --> 00:40:24,060
But ideal conditions weren't enough to satisfy some in Congress.

578
00:40:24,060 --> 00:40:26,340
They wanted SETI stamped out.

579
00:40:26,340 --> 00:40:30,700
Just one year after the radio telescope atop Goldstone Station began directing an all-out

580
00:40:30,700 --> 00:40:36,180
microwave search of the universe, Congress suddenly called a halt to everything.

581
00:40:36,180 --> 00:40:39,500
The SETI project, I think, was just a sacrificial lamp.

582
00:40:39,500 --> 00:40:44,140
It was a cheap shot for the budget posers, for the so-called deficit hawks.

583
00:40:44,140 --> 00:40:48,700
It's always easy to make fun of something that you or enough of your constituents don't

584
00:40:48,700 --> 00:40:49,700
understand.

585
00:40:49,700 --> 00:40:53,980
But some believe the cancellation was a red herring, designed to keep the public from asking

586
00:40:53,980 --> 00:40:56,620
too many questions.

587
00:40:56,620 --> 00:41:01,060
If they embrace the concept of looking for alien signals, they also have to acknowledge

588
00:41:01,060 --> 00:41:07,020
the fact that the alien signals are coming from an extraterrestrial intelligence somewhere.

589
00:41:07,020 --> 00:41:13,060
And for certain people, that's not something that they want to either believe in or allow

590
00:41:13,060 --> 00:41:16,100
anybody to know that they believe in.

591
00:41:16,100 --> 00:41:21,180
Some close to the project allege the National Security Agency quashed SETI in an effort to

592
00:41:21,180 --> 00:41:26,020
suppress findings so bizarre they felt it would send the public into a media-induced

593
00:41:26,020 --> 00:41:28,140
panic.

594
00:41:28,140 --> 00:41:34,380
Their history in action in the past is a good warning of what they would do if something

595
00:41:34,380 --> 00:41:36,140
like this happened.

596
00:41:36,140 --> 00:41:41,420
But at the same time the government was supposedly dismantling SETI, private companies came forward

597
00:41:41,420 --> 00:41:43,900
with millions of dollars in donations.

598
00:41:43,900 --> 00:41:49,660
Hewlett Packard, Intel, Microsoft and others helped resurrect SETI, and from the ashes

599
00:41:49,660 --> 00:41:52,020
they created Project Phoenix.

600
00:41:52,020 --> 00:41:58,060
But rumors still abound concerning government involvement in this new incarnation of SETI.

601
00:41:58,060 --> 00:42:02,140
The government likes to have control in varying degrees.

602
00:42:02,140 --> 00:42:06,540
They have to have control at least a little.

603
00:42:06,540 --> 00:42:10,820
Perhaps most suspect of all is the fact that Project Phoenix, like its predecessor, still

604
00:42:10,820 --> 00:42:15,260
has ties to Goldstone's station on a military installation.

605
00:42:15,260 --> 00:42:18,060
If the hits do come down, they will be suppressed.

606
00:42:18,060 --> 00:42:19,740
I don't think anybody will take a chance.

607
00:42:19,740 --> 00:42:24,180
The government would never make that leap of faith that the public would be able to

608
00:42:24,180 --> 00:42:31,540
handle the fact that we are receiving intelligence signals from another race, creature, something

609
00:42:31,540 --> 00:42:36,700
from somewhere else.

610
00:42:36,700 --> 00:42:40,860
SETI was not the only government-funded program searching for signs of intelligent life in

611
00:42:40,860 --> 00:42:41,860
the cosmos.

612
00:42:41,860 --> 00:42:47,460
JPL, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, had begun an all-sky survey in

613
00:42:47,460 --> 00:42:58,660
1993, but it too has been abruptly halted with no plans for resumption.

614
00:42:58,660 --> 00:43:04,140
If you've had a paranormal experience, call the Sightings Hotline at 1-900-933-SITE.

615
00:43:04,140 --> 00:43:07,460
That's 1-900-933-7444.

616
00:43:07,460 --> 00:43:11,260
Each call 65 cents a minute, average call last three minutes.

617
00:43:11,260 --> 00:43:12,620
Sightings is also online.

618
