207 00:10:25,780 --> 00:10:29,780 and that they were taught, they were given that knowledge 208 00:10:29,860 --> 00:10:33,760 by visitors to Earth from a neighboring planet. 209 00:10:33,820 --> 00:10:36,220 The difference between the interaction then and now 210 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,920 was that then they did not call them UFOs. 211 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:46,260 They knew precisely who was using them, 212 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,120 who was flying, the so-called ancient gods. 213 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,120 And today we call them aliens. 214 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:56,700 And I'm afraid of them. 215 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,820 The pattern of sightings in Israel continues. 216 00:11:01,900 --> 00:11:04,700 There have been additional reports of crump circles, 217 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,500 UFOs, and cattle mutilations. 218 00:11:07,560 --> 00:11:08,860 We'll bring you more from the Middle East 219 00:11:08,900 --> 00:11:11,500 on an upcoming edition of sightings. 220 00:11:11,560 --> 00:11:12,800 Coming up next... 221 00:11:12,860 --> 00:11:16,260 She grabbed my hand and we started to walk down the tunnel. 222 00:11:16,340 --> 00:11:17,960 After a near-fatal accident, 223 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,960 a little girl's angelic vision saves her life. 224 00:11:24,540 --> 00:11:26,460 Do angels exist? 225 00:11:26,540 --> 00:11:28,660 According to a Time Magazine survey, 226 00:11:28,740 --> 00:11:31,800 more than two-thirds of all Americans believe that they do. 227 00:11:31,860 --> 00:11:35,100 Skeptics argue that angelic visions are simply the brain 228 00:11:35,100 --> 00:11:39,240 replaying unconscious images absorbed through pop culture. 229 00:11:39,300 --> 00:11:41,540 For that reason, accounts of angelic visions 230 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,980 by very young children take on greater significance. 231 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,040 Their visions have not been polluted by the media. 232 00:11:48,100 --> 00:11:51,600 And what they are seeing is extraordinary. 233 00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:55,880 She was lifeless. 234 00:11:55,940 --> 00:11:58,700 There was no life in the child whatsoever. 235 00:11:58,780 --> 00:12:01,440 When Ricky first presented to the emergency department, 236 00:12:01,500 --> 00:12:04,380 I was almost sure that she would not survive. 237 00:12:04,420 --> 00:12:06,080 I ran through the hole, 238 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:07,420 and I knew something was wrong, 239 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,080 and I found her floating face down in the pool. 240 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:11,780 My mom pulled her out. 241 00:12:15,180 --> 00:12:16,360 She screamed for help, 242 00:12:16,420 --> 00:12:18,620 and there was nothing my sister and I could do. 243 00:12:18,680 --> 00:12:19,980 It was such a difficult call 244 00:12:20,060 --> 00:12:24,560 because the parents of the child were very good friends. 245 00:12:24,620 --> 00:12:27,580 October 21st, 1984. 246 00:12:27,660 --> 00:12:30,260 They only took their eyes off her for a second, 247 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,960 but that was long enough for tragedy 248 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,340 to strike the Enrique's family of Barstow, California. 249 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,760 A poolside accident left two-year-old Ricky paralyzed 250 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,660 and in a deep coma. 251 00:12:40,740 --> 00:12:42,800 While her family prayed for a miracle, 252 00:12:42,860 --> 00:12:44,960 Ricky believed she briefly entered a world 253 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,060 where miracles do happen. 254 00:12:48,140 --> 00:12:51,860 I looked behind me, and I saw a guardian angel, 255 00:12:51,940 --> 00:12:58,240 and she had flowing golden-colored hair, 256 00:12:58,300 --> 00:12:59,900 and she was wearing a white dress. 257 00:12:59,940 --> 00:13:04,500 She grabbed my hand, and we started to walk down the tunnel. 258 00:13:04,580 --> 00:13:07,200 When we got toward the end, she asked me 259 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,000 if I wanted to go through the light with her, 260 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,200 or if I wanted to go back, 261 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:13,840 and I told her that I had to go back 262 00:13:13,900 --> 00:13:15,780 until my mom where I was going. 263 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,380 And so I remember her walking me back 264 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,540 and telling me not to be afraid. 265 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,640 Soon after, Ricky opened her eyes and began to recover. 266 00:13:25,700 --> 00:13:28,000 Doctors did not know why, but Ricky did, 267 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,000 and she told her mother about it. 268 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,880 It was approximately a month after she had come home 269 00:13:33,940 --> 00:13:37,480 from the hospital, and I had taken her shopping with me. 270 00:13:37,540 --> 00:13:39,240 We went into a bookstore, 271 00:13:39,300 --> 00:13:43,080 and maybe five minutes into shopping, 272 00:13:43,140 --> 00:13:45,000 she grabbed my hand and squeezed, 273 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,800 and started screaming and yelling in the store, 274 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,600 Mama, Mama, that's my angel. 275 00:13:50,680 --> 00:13:52,200 And I didn't know what she was talking about. 276 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,800 I looked around, and there was a poster on the wall, 277 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,840 and it was of a guardian angel. 278 00:13:57,900 --> 00:14:04,400 Visions of angels are as real as any other human experience. 279 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,280 Dr. Melvin Morse is a critical care physician, 280 00:14:07,340 --> 00:14:09,000 author, and a leading authority 281 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,540 on near-death experience in children. 282 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,340 My scientific studies on near-death experiences 283 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,380 clearly document that near-death experiences 284 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,340 are, in fact, the dying experience. 285 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,080 Dr. Morse believes that through the near-death experiences 286 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,960 of children, we can preview the afterlife. 287 00:14:26,020 --> 00:14:29,420 Children experience a spiritual light, 288 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:34,120 the great majority of the time during near-death experiences, 289 00:14:34,180 --> 00:14:36,860 and this is a loving, comforting light. 290 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,560 It's not just some sort of reflex spasm of the optic nerve 291 00:14:40,620 --> 00:14:43,820 or the dysfunctional firing of neurons 292 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,480 in their occipital lobe. 293 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,280 It's a light that one child said to me 294 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,560 has a lot of good things in it. 295 00:14:49,620 --> 00:14:52,860 It was a really fluorescent color tunnel. 296 00:14:52,900 --> 00:14:56,440 It had really bright colored bricks around it, 297 00:14:56,500 --> 00:15:00,740 and it had a really almost blinding light at the end. 298 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,540 While Dr. Morse believes that Ricky and Rikas 299 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,340 had a vision of death, 300 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,940 author Joan Wester Anderson has a different interpretation. 301 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,440 She believes Ricky had what is known as a celestial vision 302 00:15:12,500 --> 00:15:15,140 of her guardian angel. 303 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,400 Angels appear to children, I think, 304 00:15:18,460 --> 00:15:22,600 because children are so open to the spiritual realm. 305 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,440 In near-death experiences with children, 306 00:15:25,500 --> 00:15:30,700 about 70% of those involve the sighting of an angel, 307 00:15:30,780 --> 00:15:31,880 which is kind of interesting 308 00:15:31,940 --> 00:15:35,500 because adults only report 15 or 20%. 309 00:15:35,580 --> 00:15:37,540 Anderson points out that the word angel 310 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,100 comes from the Greek, meaning messenger. 311 00:15:40,180 --> 00:15:43,000 The message that they get from these kinds of encounters 312 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:44,880 is that their ordinary lives 313 00:15:44,940 --> 00:15:46,880 are filled with purpose and meaning. 314 00:15:46,940 --> 00:15:49,140 Typically, a child will say to me, 315 00:15:49,180 --> 00:15:52,720 gosh, I learned that I have a job to do. 316 00:15:52,780 --> 00:15:57,380 When this first happened, we never went to church much. 317 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,780 She had no knowledge of angels, 318 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,640 really didn't know anything about it. 319 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,680 Since this, she likes to spread the word 320 00:16:05,740 --> 00:16:08,940 that the angels are out there, and it's okay. 321 00:16:09,020 --> 00:16:11,480 I think that it happened, 322 00:16:11,540 --> 00:16:15,720 so I could tell other people not to be afraid of dying. 323 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,800 Although Ricky, who is now 12, 324 00:16:18,860 --> 00:16:20,960 has not had another angelic vision, 325 00:16:21,020 --> 00:16:23,920 she feels that the presence of the angel is always with her, 326 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,220 and her family feels its presence too. 327 00:16:26,300 --> 00:16:29,800 They believe that Ricky has new angelic qualities 328 00:16:29,860 --> 00:16:32,800 that were passed to her after her encounter. 329 00:16:32,860 --> 00:16:34,800 Next, is Bigfoot Amamoo? 330 00:16:34,860 --> 00:16:36,560 Researchers discover a similar creature 331 00:16:36,620 --> 00:16:38,000 in the jungles of Brazil. 332 00:16:38,060 --> 00:16:40,360 There is a horrible animal out there 333 00:16:40,420 --> 00:16:42,460 that terrified of this animal. 334 00:16:46,620 --> 00:16:48,120 Since sightings went online, 335 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,060 our research capabilities have expanded dramatically. 336 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:52,520 In a very real sense, 337 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,920 viewers are becoming field researchers, 338 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,120 alerting us instantly to sightings around the world. 339 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,900 Recently, our in-depth Bigfoot investigation 340 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,520 generated important new leads and exclusive photographs 341 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,520 from the Pacific Northwest. 342 00:17:09,100 --> 00:17:11,820 This is so extraordinary, so incredible 343 00:17:11,900 --> 00:17:14,120 that something like a primitive man could exist 344 00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:15,520 in modern America. 345 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,520 It is almost on the edge of being unbelievable. 346 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,060 Since sightings last report 347 00:17:20,120 --> 00:17:22,520 from Oregon's Bigfoot Research Center, 348 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,520 director Peter Byrne believes that new leads 349 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,220 have brought him closer to solving 350 00:17:26,300 --> 00:17:30,300 the most persistent zoological mystery in American history. 351 00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:34,820 What's encouraging to us is that the descriptions don't vary. 352 00:17:34,900 --> 00:17:36,920 The descriptions are the same. 353 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,960 Hundreds of new Bigfoot sightings 354 00:17:39,020 --> 00:17:40,720 have been reported to the center, 355 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,520 and many of them offer clues about the creature. 356 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,420 They're also about the creature's behavior and habitat. 357 00:17:46,500 --> 00:17:50,920 At least one sighting was made at a distance of less than 50 feet. 358 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,420 There were two women driving, 359 00:17:52,500 --> 00:17:55,420 and a place called Colton, south of here, 360 00:17:55,500 --> 00:17:58,420 and one crossed the road in front of them, 361 00:17:58,500 --> 00:18:01,920 about six feet tall, huge shoulders, short neck, 362 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,120 and they said it walked very smoothly. 363 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:08,620 Didn't look at the car, crossed the road in two or three steps. 364 00:18:08,700 --> 00:18:09,720 People have seen the face. 365 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,320 They say the face is a very human face. 366 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,420 A straight nose, small lips, 367 00:18:13,500 --> 00:18:16,300 and it's not an ape's face, it's not a gorilla's face. 368 00:18:16,360 --> 00:18:17,720 A number of things like that. 369 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,600 We think we're looking at a very primitive human. 370 00:18:20,660 --> 00:18:22,820 Byrne is expanding his research team 371 00:18:22,900 --> 00:18:25,560 in an effort to calculate yearly food supply 372 00:18:25,620 --> 00:18:28,620 and seasonal migration patterns. 373 00:18:28,700 --> 00:18:31,420 We're building up a volunteer force right now 374 00:18:31,500 --> 00:18:33,200 of people who'll be working with us. 375 00:18:33,260 --> 00:18:37,120 If we do find fresh evidence, like a fresh sighting, 376 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,360 a sighting that's only a few hours old, 377 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,060 we have a plan to bring in our volunteers 378 00:18:42,140 --> 00:18:43,740 to bring in two helicopters 379 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,560 and get video and pictures close up, 380 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,640 which will be pretty good proof. 381 00:18:49,700 --> 00:18:52,000 But on the rugged shores of Puget Sound, 382 00:18:52,060 --> 00:18:54,840 less than 200 miles from the Bigfoot Center, 383 00:18:54,900 --> 00:18:57,540 one man believes he already has that proof. 384 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,240 All the way up to the top of the mountain that day, 385 00:18:59,300 --> 00:19:02,000 we had the feeling we were being followed and watched. 386 00:19:02,060 --> 00:19:03,440 I saw this head move like that, 387 00:19:03,500 --> 00:19:07,800 what I thought was a head, and I decided to take that picture. 388 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,280 On an expedition just weeks ago, 389 00:19:10,340 --> 00:19:12,280 Terry Mitchell took two photographs 390 00:19:12,340 --> 00:19:13,900 that many researchers believe 391 00:19:13,980 --> 00:19:16,200 are the most significant Bigfoot evidence 392 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:20,900 since the infamous Patterson film taken in 1967. 393 00:19:20,980 --> 00:19:24,780 I'm pretty confident that I've got a picture of a Sasquatch. 394 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,640 All you can see is sort of a shoulders and roundness of a head 395 00:19:28,700 --> 00:19:30,540 that looks like it's looking up the trail. 396 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,340 If you take that picture and put it on the road, 397 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,740 you will actually see a face, a darkened face, 398 00:19:35,740 --> 00:19:39,420 with black hair looking right at the camera. 399 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,380 And at the same time Terry Mitchell 400 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,980 was photographing his Bigfoot encounter, 401 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,540 thousands of miles away in the Amazonian rainforest, 402 00:19:47,620 --> 00:19:51,420 researchers there were having a strikingly similar experience. 403 00:19:53,780 --> 00:19:57,520 It had a large and thick tail, 404 00:19:57,580 --> 00:20:01,980 was covered with reddish and blackish hairs, 405 00:20:02,020 --> 00:20:05,420 had long claws, a monkey-like face, 406 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,760 but felt it was absolutely terrified. 407 00:20:07,820 --> 00:20:10,080 Couldn't imagine what he'd seen. 408 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,620 Dr. David Orlin is a Harvard-educated research biologist 409 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,660 working in South America. 410 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,980 He believes that ancient legends about a creature 411 00:20:18,060 --> 00:20:21,520 called the Pengway may be based in fact. 412 00:20:21,580 --> 00:20:24,460 Two separate places, people were sent running away 413 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,160 from what they considered to be this animal. 414 00:20:27,220 --> 00:20:30,220 The reports of this thing from all the far corners 415 00:20:30,260 --> 00:20:32,520 of the Brazilian Amazon, Venezuela, 416 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:39,760 the Guyana's, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia. 417 00:20:39,820 --> 00:20:41,600 Dr. Orlin has talked to many people 418 00:20:41,660 --> 00:20:43,600 who describe the Pengway as a creature 419 00:20:43,660 --> 00:20:45,620 who walks with backward feet. 420 00:20:45,700 --> 00:20:49,160 It stands over six feet tall, weighs more than 500 pounds, 421 00:20:49,220 --> 00:20:50,860 and according to one hunter, 422 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,260 it is impervious to repeated blasts from a shotgun. 423 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,460 Consistently, people report that this creature 424 00:20:58,460 --> 00:21:01,300 has a very, very bad smell, 425 00:21:01,360 --> 00:21:03,860 and then it affects the nervous system. 426 00:21:03,940 --> 00:21:08,840 People describe themselves as being disoriented, intoxicated, 427 00:21:08,900 --> 00:21:11,660 and there are three separate cases in which people 428 00:21:11,740 --> 00:21:14,660 are stated to have become mute for the rest of their lives 429 00:21:14,740 --> 00:21:16,660 after getting a large dose of this. 430 00:21:16,740 --> 00:21:19,660 Many of the people who give you these firsthand accounts 431 00:21:19,740 --> 00:21:22,960 is they'll say, I didn't believe in this thing either. 432 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,560 I thought it was just a legend, too, until I saw it. 433 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,800 And let me tell you, it's not just a legend. 434 00:21:28,860 --> 00:21:31,340 There is a horrible animal out there. 435 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,060 They're terrified of this animal. 436 00:21:34,140 --> 00:21:37,400 Although Dr. Orlin has not seen the creature for himself, 437 00:21:37,460 --> 00:21:39,660 10 years of data collected in the field 438 00:21:39,740 --> 00:21:41,800 have led him to believe the Pengway may be 439 00:21:41,860 --> 00:21:45,060 a prehistoric creature thought to be extinct. 440 00:21:45,140 --> 00:21:48,240 Suddenly, a light went off in my head and said, my God, 441 00:21:48,300 --> 00:21:51,360 this could only be a ground sloth. 442 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:52,760 Well, it's just perfectly extraordinary 443 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,640 because if we can suddenly drag out of the Amazon basin 444 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,180 by its ear, South America's largest land mammal, 445 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:04,180 unknown to science until 1995 or 1996 or 1997, 446 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:05,840 what else is out there? 447 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,740 How incredibly all-embracing our ignorance is. 448 00:22:13,020 --> 00:22:16,440 The giant sloth is not the only supposedly extinct mammal 449 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:17,980 to turn up at recent months. 450 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,440 In Malaysia and in Israel, we are following up on reports 451 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,220 that giant humanoid creatures 452 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,340 have been discovered there as well. 453 00:22:26,140 --> 00:22:28,240 Coming up, ghosts on the battlefield. 454 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,140 Gettysburg is probably the most haunted battlefield. 455 00:22:31,220 --> 00:22:33,840 Then, will the Earth destroy us? 456 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:35,420 This is not one person's problem. 457 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:36,740 This is everyone's problem. 458 00:22:36,820 --> 00:22:38,640 And the U.S. government has plans 459 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,040 for extraterrestrial contact. 460 00:22:44,620 --> 00:22:46,880 More Americans died during the Civil War 461 00:22:46,940 --> 00:22:49,840 than in both World Wars and Vietnam combined. 462 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:50,920 And no single battle 463 00:22:50,980 --> 00:22:53,920 exacted a greater human toll than Gettysburg. 464 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,820 Many of the soldiers who drew their last agonizing breaths 465 00:22:56,900 --> 00:22:59,420 on that field were buried where they fell. 466 00:22:59,500 --> 00:23:01,220 Today, the battlefield at Gettysburg 467 00:23:01,300 --> 00:23:02,920 is an historic monument, 468 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,600 but it is also America's largest unmarked graveyard. 469 00:23:06,660 --> 00:23:08,920 And not surprisingly, many ghosts 470 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,420 are said to haunt its hallowed ground. 471 00:23:14,500 --> 00:23:16,720 There's a special feeling here at Gettysburg. 472 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:19,920 When you come here, 473 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,420 it's almost like going into an eye of a hurricane. 474 00:23:24,420 --> 00:23:25,920 A lot of the people that were killed here 475 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,420 were killed very violently, very suddenly. 476 00:23:28,500 --> 00:23:31,420 And many of them literally bled to death on the battlefields. 477 00:23:33,260 --> 00:23:37,420 Their lives were cut short, suddenly and horribly. 478 00:23:37,500 --> 00:23:40,620 And perhaps that's why a great deal of psychic energy remains 479 00:23:40,700 --> 00:23:42,920 in places like Gettysburg. 480 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,720 It's the little Pennsylvania town 481 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,420 that changed the course of American history. 482 00:23:47,500 --> 00:23:51,420 Nearly 200,000 fought here in July 1863. 483 00:23:51,420 --> 00:23:53,220 And by the end of the three-day battle, 484 00:23:53,300 --> 00:23:55,920 more than 50,000 soldiers were lost. 485 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,120 It was the turning point of the Civil War. 486 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,600 And is still, according to some, 487 00:24:00,660 --> 00:24:04,420 a pivotal location for paranormal investigators. 488 00:24:04,500 --> 00:24:08,500 In his book, author and Civil War enthusiast, Mark Nesbitt, 489 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,920 has collected reports of paranormal activity 490 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,800 by modern-day visitors to the battlefield. 491 00:24:13,860 --> 00:24:15,620 The Phantom Regiment is one 492 00:24:15,700 --> 00:24:18,800 that's been seen several times by several different people, 493 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,340 sometimes in groups. 494 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:25,600 They see a regiment lined up out in the middle of a field. 495 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,080 They are maneuvering, they wander around, they begin to march, 496 00:24:29,140 --> 00:24:32,180 they march off into the woods and then vanish. 497 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,840 This has been seen a number of times. 498 00:24:34,900 --> 00:24:36,400 Beyond the ghost stories, 499 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:37,800 there are strange photographs 500 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,040 that seem to have captured tangible evidence 501 00:24:40,100 --> 00:24:42,540 of a paranormal energy here. 502 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:43,940 I actually didn't believe in ghosts 503 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,000 until I started taking pictures. 504 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,000 And one showed up in my pictures. 505 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,580 First time I actually believed there was something out there. 506 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,000 I looked at it and I was shocked. 507 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,580 And I said, Tim, I think we captured a ghost. 508 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,700 I think a lot of people just don't want to admit 509 00:24:56,780 --> 00:24:57,800 they believe in ghosts 510 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,000 because it doesn't sound like something respectable. 511 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,700 Charles Emmons has been a professor of sociology 512 00:25:02,780 --> 00:25:05,500 at Gettysburg College since 1974. 513 00:25:05,580 --> 00:25:08,580 He believes that the psychic trauma of 1863 514 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,580 may endure today in the form of residual haunting 515 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,200 and is not just limited to the battlefield. 516 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:15,940 This is Pennsylvania Hall. 517 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:19,540 During the battle, it was used by both sides as a hospital. 518 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,980 Four or five different people independently 519 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,400 reported seeing a soldier walking around 520 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,280 on the top of that cupola on Pennsylvania Hall. 521 00:25:28,340 --> 00:25:31,600 And I interviewed a student who had walked by there 522 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,200 about 11 o'clock at night. 523 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,880 He was very upset about the experience. 524 00:25:35,940 --> 00:25:38,700 He was not trying to hoax. He didn't want it to happen. 525 00:25:38,780 --> 00:25:40,200 He was obviously upset. 526 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,700 And inside, strange haunting images pervade. 527 00:25:43,700 --> 00:25:46,600 Two administrators went down the elevator, 528 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,100 punched the button for the first floor. 529 00:25:49,180 --> 00:25:51,580 It didn't work properly. They went to the basement instead. 530 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,200 And when the doors opened, 531 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,900 to reveal not a scene that was cleaned up for storage, 532 00:25:56,980 --> 00:25:59,200 but a scene out of time and reason, 533 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,500 a hospital scene from the time of the battle. 534 00:26:02,580 --> 00:26:04,500 They punched frantically at the buttons 535 00:26:04,580 --> 00:26:08,900 to get them out of this hell that they had descended into. 536 00:26:08,980 --> 00:26:09,940 And one of the... 537 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,940 Kept punching the buttons and eventually got up out of there. 538 00:26:12,940 --> 00:26:16,740 But most of Gettysburg's ghostly encounters occur here, 539 00:26:16,820 --> 00:26:20,440 on the battlefield where 51,000 men died. 540 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,740 Gettysburg probably, as far as I'm concerned, 541 00:26:22,820 --> 00:26:24,740 is probably the most haunted battlefield 542 00:26:24,820 --> 00:26:26,740 that I've come across so far. 543 00:26:26,820 --> 00:26:29,080 Paranormal investigator Dale Kazmerik 544 00:26:29,140 --> 00:26:31,440 was asked to accompany a sightings team 545 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,740 to the battlefield for nighttime surveillance. 546 00:26:34,820 --> 00:26:38,040 This area seems to be one of several different locations. 547 00:26:38,120 --> 00:26:41,640 It's very active as far as paranormal activity. 548 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,440 A lot of loss of life would have occurred right here. 549 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,180 Among the tools of his trade are a Geiger counter, 550 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,840 magnetometer, and other highly sensitive electronic devices 551 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,840 that will register anomalous energy in the area. 552 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,920 Our sightings camera was equipped with a special night vision lens 553 00:26:56,980 --> 00:26:59,040 to record in low light conditions. 554 00:26:59,120 --> 00:27:04,720 Most likely, when I'm picking up our small pockets of anomalies, 555 00:27:04,780 --> 00:27:07,040 little slight deviations in magnetic field 556 00:27:07,120 --> 00:27:09,720 might indicate a presence of some kind. 557 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,060 Kazmerik spent several hours taking readings 558 00:27:12,120 --> 00:27:14,760 in an area known as the triangular field. 559 00:27:14,820 --> 00:27:16,960 This is the site where Confederate soldiers began 560 00:27:17,020 --> 00:27:19,020 the charge on little round top. 561 00:27:19,100 --> 00:27:24,520 Some of the bloodiest battle took place along this ridge. 562 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,560 Right there, I got a real high reading, 563 00:27:27,620 --> 00:27:32,620 a real high static discharge reading right here. 564 00:27:32,700 --> 00:27:33,760 Really no reason for it. 565 00:27:33,820 --> 00:27:37,760 There's no way static should be built up out here. 566 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,140 Nothing to attract static electricity or negative ions. 567 00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:48,600 Another reading right by the rock over here, 568 00:27:48,660 --> 00:27:54,560 which was approximately 20 on the scale. 569 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,440 Meter peaks and anomalous readings continued until dawn. 570 00:27:58,500 --> 00:28:00,300 I think it's very interesting out there, 571 00:28:00,360 --> 00:28:02,300 especially at the triangular field. 572 00:28:02,360 --> 00:28:04,800 We got a lot of interesting readings out there, 573 00:28:04,860 --> 00:28:07,000 including a lot of disturbances 574 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,040 with the negative ion detector. 575 00:28:09,100 --> 00:28:12,040 I believe the area is infested, 576 00:28:12,100 --> 00:28:15,040 the word I like to use, infested by ghosts. 577 00:28:15,100 --> 00:28:17,800 Not only because of the trauma that's taking place here 578 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,800 due to the battle, but surrounding the battle 579 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,600 and the poor sanitary conditions, things of that nature, 580 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,800 it's a location that leads itself 581 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,800 to the existence and possibility of ghosts. 582 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,040 Residual haunting also seemed to be present 583 00:28:33,100 --> 00:28:35,240 in the end where the sighting steam stayed. 584 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,480 The Farnsworth house built in 1816 585 00:28:37,540 --> 00:28:40,340 had been an ad hoc infantry position during the war. 586 00:28:40,420 --> 00:28:42,540 These particular men were sharpshooters. 587 00:28:42,620 --> 00:28:46,240 They were most likely infantry soldiers. 588 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:47,240 They were Confederate. 589 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,440 They came into the house, maybe the door was unlocked. 590 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:50,480 They climbed the stairs. 591 00:28:50,540 --> 00:28:53,440 The vantage point and the most protection would serve 592 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,040 would be the garret, which is the attic. 593 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:57,740 They flew open the door. 594 00:28:57,820 --> 00:28:59,740 They laid down on their bellies. 595 00:28:59,820 --> 00:29:00,940 They had a great position. 596 00:29:01,020 --> 00:29:04,140 They were actually firing and killing Union soldiers 597 00:29:04,140 --> 00:29:06,040 in the Jenny Wade. 598 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,040 The name of the neighboring inn. 599 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:09,540 When the soldiers were captured, 600 00:29:09,620 --> 00:29:11,540 one of them was playing a mouth harp, 601 00:29:11,620 --> 00:29:13,340 a popular instrument of the time. 602 00:29:13,420 --> 00:29:15,740 Guests claim they hear his music still, 603 00:29:15,820 --> 00:29:19,240 and Patty claims she's seen the ghost of one of the men. 604 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,740 I got a very fleeting glimpse of him. 605 00:29:22,820 --> 00:29:26,940 He's a very tall, willowy young man, about maybe 17. 606 00:29:27,020 --> 00:29:28,540 If you looked at him and didn't know your age, 607 00:29:28,620 --> 00:29:30,940 you would think he was like 13, 14 years old. 608 00:29:30,940 --> 00:29:34,220 Despite credible eyewitnesses and new electronic data 609 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,520 gathering methods, Professor Emmons believes 610 00:29:36,580 --> 00:29:38,740 we may never be able to scientifically prove 611 00:29:38,820 --> 00:29:41,220 the existence of the ghosts of Gettysburg. 612 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,620 There are other ways of knowing ghosts. 613 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:47,020 If you have the experience, a kind of religious, 614 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,020 supernatural experience, it does something to you. 615 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,820 There's just some sense of awe that tells you 616 00:29:53,900 --> 00:29:56,020 that something is happening here. 617 00:29:56,100 --> 00:29:59,240 And I don't know how exactly you study that scientifically. 618 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:00,740 We may have to go beyond science 619 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,140 to understand this phenomenon. 620 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,740 For now, the spirits of the men who fought here 621 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,740 can best be captured when you stand on the battlefield 622 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:09,740 and feel the sense of history. 623 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,240 I think since there was a lot of violence, 624 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,820 especially the ones that were just literally ripped to pieces, 625 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,620 I think they'll be remaining for a very, very long time. 626 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,720 MUSIC 627 00:30:22,780 --> 00:30:26,120 Most Civil War battlefields do not survive as historic sites. 628 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,120 They've been plowed up, paved over, 629 00:30:28,140 --> 00:30:29,540 and built upon. 630 00:30:29,620 --> 00:30:32,780 But beneath the concrete and steel of our modern age, 631 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,120 the echoes of the past remain. 632 00:30:35,180 --> 00:30:38,220 Many people believe that if you listen closely, 633 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:40,520 you can hear them still. 634 00:30:40,580 --> 00:30:42,320 Next, a sightings update. 635 00:30:42,380 --> 00:30:45,620 The Earth seeks revenge, and we may have sealed our fate. 636 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,520 Through pollution, we could be very well 637 00:30:47,580 --> 00:30:49,560 of ensuring our own extinction. 638 00:30:49,620 --> 00:30:54,020 MUSIC 639 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,020 Recently, sightings brought you alarming statistics 640 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,940 about new and deadly viruses breaking out around the world. 641 00:31:01,020 --> 00:31:04,080 Proponents of the Gaia theory suggest that these new viruses 642 00:31:04,140 --> 00:31:06,940 have been created by Earth in self-defense. 643 00:31:07,020 --> 00:31:09,440 It's a theory that's gaining wider acceptance, 644 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,080 and now it appears that Mother Nature 645 00:31:11,140 --> 00:31:14,940 is fighting back at us with more than just viruses. 646 00:31:15,020 --> 00:31:17,440 I think the problem is much more serious 647 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:18,940 than we hear in the media 648 00:31:19,020 --> 00:31:22,440 because the story is still breaking. 649 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:23,640 Everyone is involved. 650 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,020 This is not one person's problem. 651 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,440 This is everyone's problem. 652 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,360 The Gaia theory, first espoused by James Lovelike, 653 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,860 suggests that Earth is a living entity 654 00:31:31,940 --> 00:31:33,440 capable of fighting off infection. 655 00:31:33,500 --> 00:31:35,860 In our last report, we brought disturbing evidence 656 00:31:35,940 --> 00:31:37,860 that the infection is us. 657 00:31:37,940 --> 00:31:41,360 By cutting away and disrupting the balance, 658 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:45,360 you have, in effect, Gaia's revenge. 659 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,360 The ecosystem fights back, and it attacks the people. 660 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,860 It harms them with disease and drives them out. 661 00:31:51,940 --> 00:31:53,860 According to Gaia theorists, 662 00:31:53,940 --> 00:31:55,860 Mother Earth's number one enemy 663 00:31:55,860 --> 00:31:58,280 is overpopulation. 664 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,280 We are the threat. We are the problem. 665 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:05,280 There are five billion of us on the planet. 666 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,780 There is a quarter of a trillion pounds 667 00:32:08,860 --> 00:32:11,780 of human flesh on this planet. 668 00:32:11,860 --> 00:32:14,280 And the flesh is weak. 669 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,280 We are pouring billions of tons of garbage 670 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,280 and chemicals into Gaia. 671 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,280 Her immune system is badly deteriorating. 672 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,280 Participants at a recent World Wildlife Symposium 673 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,700 warn Gaia is struggling just to maintain the status quo. 674 00:32:27,780 --> 00:32:30,700 Some of us were seeing that animals were getting sick and dying. 675 00:32:30,780 --> 00:32:33,700 Others were seeing that there are definite developmental effects 676 00:32:33,780 --> 00:32:35,700 that birds had twisted beaks, 677 00:32:35,780 --> 00:32:38,700 that animals were developing tumors all over them. 678 00:32:38,780 --> 00:32:40,700 Each and every year, 679 00:32:40,780 --> 00:32:43,700 435 billion pounds of man-made chemicals 680 00:32:43,780 --> 00:32:46,700 are released into our world's ever-weakening environment. 681 00:32:46,780 --> 00:32:49,200 Recent studies suggest that these chemicals 682 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,200 are disrupting hormone production, 683 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,120 impairing the reproductive cycle of many animals. 684 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,620 And we are one of those animals. 685 00:32:56,700 --> 00:32:58,120 According to one study, 686 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,620 male sperm counts have dropped 40% since World War II. 687 00:33:01,700 --> 00:33:05,620 The trend is unequivocal that male sperm counts have been dropping. 688 00:33:05,700 --> 00:33:08,620 And that could be the underlying explanation 689 00:33:08,700 --> 00:33:10,620 for the increase in infertility in men, 690 00:33:10,700 --> 00:33:13,620 but that will not explain why they're dropping. 691 00:33:13,700 --> 00:33:16,620 And that's the big question, what's going on out there? 692 00:33:16,700 --> 00:33:19,620 This is what's going on out there, 693 00:33:19,620 --> 00:33:21,540 according to Gaia theorists. 694 00:33:21,620 --> 00:33:24,540 Since Gaia cannot absorb everything we feed into it, 695 00:33:24,620 --> 00:33:26,540 Gaia must attack the source. 696 00:33:26,620 --> 00:33:29,540 It's us against the world. 697 00:33:29,620 --> 00:33:32,540 The first warning signals that this is the new reality 698 00:33:32,620 --> 00:33:37,040 are occurring here in the befouled waters of Lake Apopka in Florida. 699 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,540 Wildlife biologist Tim Gross discovered that many alligators, 700 00:33:40,620 --> 00:33:42,040 turtles and fish in the lake, 701 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,040 are neither male nor female. 702 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,040 Their sexual development is mutating. 703 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,460 The effects that we're seeing that are quite dramatic 704 00:33:49,540 --> 00:33:51,960 are effects on the developing embryo. 705 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,460 So in other words, these concentrations are deposited in the eggs 706 00:33:55,540 --> 00:33:57,960 during the development of the egg in mom. 707 00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,960 They're quite toxic to an embryo. 708 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,960 And they form major alterations in the sexual differentiation. 709 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,960 There are signs that these kinds of genetic disturbances 710 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,460 are on the increase throughout the United States. 711 00:34:09,540 --> 00:34:12,960 Biologists are beginning to see what they refer to as gender warping, 712 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,960 occurring in a wide variety of animal species. 713 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,880 This yet another weapon of Gaia's revenge. 714 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:22,380 If males are not male and females are not female, 715 00:34:22,460 --> 00:34:27,380 they cannot reproduce and are therefore only one generation away from extinction. 716 00:34:27,460 --> 00:34:30,380 How far then are we from the same thing? 717 00:34:30,460 --> 00:34:33,960 I think those people who say that the effects on wildlife 718 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,460 are isolated events and will have no effect on humans 719 00:34:37,540 --> 00:34:40,960 are being overly reassuring. 720 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,760 Hormones are basically ubiquitous. 721 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:48,680 In other words, they're shared by all animal species. 722 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:50,760 And that the hormones that control reproduction 723 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:55,180 in alligators and turtles also control reproduction in humans. 724 00:34:55,260 --> 00:34:57,680 That is rather devastating because it can create 725 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:00,680 major fertility problems in the human population. 726 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,680 This affects all of us because some of these contaminants 727 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,680 are present in all of our food and in our drinking water. 728 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:10,680 A chemical present in our food and in our water 729 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:14,600 can have potentially disrupting effects on a fetus, 730 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,100 on any of us as adults. 731 00:35:17,180 --> 00:35:21,100 Through pollution, we could be very well ensuring our own extinction. 732 00:35:21,180 --> 00:35:24,100 But studies, some sponsored by chemical companies, 733 00:35:24,180 --> 00:35:27,600 conclude that the earth and its inhabitants are resilient 734 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,100 and will not suffer long-term effects. 735 00:35:30,180 --> 00:35:34,100 Infertility expert Dr. Michael Zinman is not convinced. 736 00:35:34,180 --> 00:35:40,100 Exposing a pregnant woman to a variety of so-called benign, 737 00:35:40,100 --> 00:35:43,520 problem chemicals have turned out to not be so benign 738 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:47,520 and cause long-term effects in their offspring 739 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,520 and affected their offspring's ability to have offspring. 740 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,020 By polluting Gaia, have we sealed our own fate? 741 00:35:54,100 --> 00:35:57,520 Has earth become so riddled with the cancer of chemical waste 742 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,520 that there's no cure in sight? 743 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,520 A large number of the public will believe this data, 744 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:07,520 will take it to heart very seriously and be very concerned. 745 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,940 The biggest question then immediately after that is, 746 00:36:10,020 --> 00:36:13,440 okay, there's a problem, how do I clean it up? 747 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:17,940 That's where it's depressing because I don't know how to clean it up. 748 00:36:18,020 --> 00:36:21,440 I don't know of any research indicating how we clean it up. 749 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,940 Our cleanup methods currently are sort of bury it or hide it 750 00:36:25,020 --> 00:36:27,940 or just let it go for a long time 751 00:36:28,020 --> 00:36:30,440 and hopefully it'll decay and disappear. 752 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,940 The problem is the average person on the street 753 00:36:33,020 --> 00:36:36,940 is not well enough informed to get worried about it. 754 00:36:36,940 --> 00:36:39,860 If people could become educated about the potential threats 755 00:36:39,940 --> 00:36:42,360 to their health and that of their family and children, 756 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,860 then that's probably a way to get them more involved. 757 00:36:45,940 --> 00:36:51,860 Since humankind began, there has never been a time 758 00:36:51,940 --> 00:36:54,360 of global peace and understanding. 759 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,860 Political, philosophical and religious differences 760 00:36:56,940 --> 00:36:59,360 continue to divide nations. 761 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,860 But perhaps Gaia's ultimate gift to us 762 00:37:01,940 --> 00:37:05,860 will be a global peace created by the universal battle 763 00:37:05,860 --> 00:37:08,280 to save this planet. 764 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,780 Next, if extraterrestrials don't exist, 765 00:37:10,860 --> 00:37:14,780 why do government agencies have plans for UFO emergencies?
