1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000 on this edition of sightings. 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,000 A UFO invades a high-security military base, 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:10,000 leaving behind frightened eyewitnesses. 4 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,000 It's like they're playing with kids. 5 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,000 That's scary. 6 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,000 Extraterrestrial spy or government secret. 7 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,000 Then, where is Deborah Palmer? 8 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,000 How can you say what it's like for 25 years 9 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000 to look for somebody? 10 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,000 Now, psychic Dorothy Allison believes she knows 11 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,000 what happened to Debbie. 12 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,000 It was a violent fight. 13 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,000 I mean, he was really going at it. 14 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,000 Is this historic footage that proves aliens exist 15 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,000 or is it a cruel hoax? 16 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,000 You're saying that they used a human body. 17 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,000 And that makes it one of the most despicable hoaxes 18 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,000 ever perpetrated. 19 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,000 Later, Jack Wheeler is convinced he is alive today 20 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,000 because a spirit of love rescued him from certain death. 21 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,000 And then I remember falling in her kitchen. 22 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,000 And plus, Bigfoot is tracked in Ohio. 23 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,000 Welcome to Sightings. I'm Tim White. 24 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,000 The videotape you're about to see is different. 25 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,000 It was shot in late 1994 in the government's own backyard, 26 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,000 the super-secret Nellis Test Range in Southern Nevada. 27 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,000 Had the tape not been smuggled out, 28 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,000 it might well have been classified by authorities. 29 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,000 The base employees in this report 30 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,000 appear at considerable professional risk, 31 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,000 and therefore their identities have been heavily disguised. 32 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,000 The video tape you're about to see is different. 33 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,000 And therefore their identities have been heavily disguised. 34 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,000 Remote-controlled cameras monitor the 7,700 square miles 35 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,000 of airspace above the Nellis Range. 36 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,000 The cameras record fighter jet training, tactical exercises, 37 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,000 and in at least one case, this UFO. 38 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,000 The video, from a tracking location known only as S-30, 39 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,000 was fed into Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas. 40 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,000 Personnel there monitor what is supposed to be 41 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,000 classified data about aircraft runs 42 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,000 over the 3 million acres of desert that make up the Nellis Range. 43 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,000 An unknown aircraft making its way onto the complex, 44 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,000 says aerospace journalist Bill Sweetman, 45 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,000 is not considered standard operating procedure. 46 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,000 I don't think you'd really see many objects wandering in by accident. 47 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:06,000 They're very careful to ensure that sort of thing doesn't happen. 48 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,000 The potential for serious accidents, 49 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,000 if somebody is really straying into the range, 50 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,000 is very, very serious. 51 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,000 And yet, something obviously did stray in, 52 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,000 and it frightened the camera's remote-controlled operators. 53 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,000 This craft shows up, 54 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,000 and it's like they're playing with kids. 55 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,000 It's like, do whatever they want and buy now. 56 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,000 That's scary. 57 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,000 I've never seen anything like this before. 58 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,000 This was my first encounter seeing anything of this nature. 59 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:43,000 And I've been working in the ranges for close to ten years. 60 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,000 It seemed to move in whichever direction it wanted to go 61 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:51,000 whenever it wanted to, contrary to any aircraft that I've seen in the past. 62 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,000 Chuck DeCarro is a former member of U.S. Special Forces, 63 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,000 specializing in state-of-the-art military technology. 64 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,000 He has analyzed hours of video footage of supposed UFOs, debunking many, 65 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,000 but he has never seen anything like the Nellis UFO. 66 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:10,000 In my first look at that tape, I said, wow. 67 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,000 And I continue to say, wow. 68 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,000 There are only three things that could be on that tape. 69 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,000 One is a very elaborate and very expensive hoax. 70 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000 I don't think that's what we're seeing. 71 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,000 The second is some kind of a black project, a secret project, 72 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,000 that has some very unusual aerodynamic characteristics. 73 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000 And the third, if you can eliminate all those aerodynamic answers, 74 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,000 could be a true unknown. 75 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,000 And if that is an unknown, if you can come to that conclusion, 76 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,000 you get a pretty interesting piece of history right there. 77 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,000 To rule out the possibility of a hoax, 78 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,000 Sightings asked a government subcontractor 79 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,000 who uses the same image analysis computer as the Department of Defense 80 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,000 to analyze the S-30 tapes. 81 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,000 He has asked to remain anonymous. 82 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,000 The video appears to be genuine. 83 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:59,000 Specifically, it was taken by contractor personnel 84 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:04,000 that are operating tracking sites for the United States Air Force. 85 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,000 Could the Nellis UFO be a rare glimpse at a military black project? 86 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,000 The stealth bomber is one former black project tested in Nevada 87 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,000 and early on misidentified by civilians as a UFO. 88 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,000 But our sources insist that when black projects are tested, 89 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,000 the tracking cameras are deactivated. 90 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,000 The camera operators in the tracking sites 91 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:31,000 are not exposed to those highly classed white aircraft on a typical basis. 92 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,000 Chuck DeCarro and the government video engineer 93 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,000 compared notes on the possibility that this UFO was a black project. 94 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:43,000 What's startling about it is that it doesn't resemble any shapes that I would know immediately. 95 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,000 And that's why I thought it was interesting to start with. 96 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,000 It almost appears to be like spherical in the center 97 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,000 and with a appendage on the bottom and on the top. 98 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,000 You don't see any evidence of rotors. 99 00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:00,000 And also the startling thing is it seems to change shape. 100 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,000 Another anomalous characteristic of the object 101 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,000 is its apparent ability to change shape instantaneously. 102 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:14,000 The physical profile of the object changes almost frame to frame. 103 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:19,000 Sometimes it appears almost to be a fuzzy, gassy cloud. 104 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,000 In some portions of the video, 105 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:29,000 it appears to be several spherical objects surrounding a dark mass. 106 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,000 To get a better look at the flight characteristics of the Nellis UFO, 107 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,000 Siding's consulted with Chip Peterson, a video processing expert. 108 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:43,000 He stabilized and enhanced several minutes of the S-30 video. 109 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,000 I basically moved each frame, and you can see the frame is actually moving now, 110 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:53,000 showing the degree that I had to move the image in order to keep this object stable in the center. 111 00:06:53,000 --> 00:07:00,000 The stabilized image clearly shows the odd shape of the object shifting and turning in the sky. 112 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,000 I then took the numbers one by one and reconstructed the flight path, 113 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,000 and that's the only way I could determine what the actual motion was. 114 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,000 And I recreated that in three dimensions. 115 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:14,000 It's initially heading away from the camera, and it abruptly changes, 116 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:18,000 and during this phase, the range is increasing. 117 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:23,000 It's actually going away from the camera, and at this point, it changes direction. 118 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,000 Wind wouldn't do that. It wouldn't change that abruptly. 119 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,000 And it wouldn't follow a constant radius throughout this entire portion here. 120 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,000 It's all at constant distance from the camera. 121 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:37,000 It's as if it's observing the ground position just as the ground is observing it, 122 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,000 and maintaining this constant distance. 123 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,000 Based on his knowledge as an aerospace engineer, 124 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:49,000 Peterson offered one possible explanation for the abrupt turns performed by the UFO. 125 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,000 You could interpret it as if it determined it was on radar at this point. 126 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:58,000 Perhaps if you're on radar, of course you can sense that in all of our fighter planes. 127 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,000 You know when you're being tracked. 128 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,000 As soon as you get a lock, or you get this radar signal, 129 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,000 it would seem to me that this object was interested in who's observing it, 130 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,000 and it turned in order to find out. 131 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:14,000 When something starts to change shape like that in the air, 132 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:19,000 you become very, very puzzled because you realize that you're looking at something 133 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:24,000 that appears to involve a whole new technology that we don't understand. 134 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,000 What you want to do, of course, is go and find the person who's invented this 135 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:32,000 and say, whatever made you think of that, and what does it do, and how does it do it? 136 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:36,000 But we will probably never know who created this new technology. 137 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,000 Questions about the earthly or otherworldly origins of the Nellis UFO are unanswerable. 138 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:47,000 Until the mastermind behind this craft comes forward, there is only speculation and fear. 139 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,000 Like us viewing an ant farm. 140 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,000 And the ants think they're it. 141 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,000 That's the scary part. 142 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,000 What is that? 143 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,000 What a cow farm. 144 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,000 To this day, the origin of the UFO has not been determined. 145 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,000 Sightings forwarded a copy of the Nellis videotape to the Pentagon, 146 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,000 requesting an official response. 147 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:15,000 As of this broadcast, the Air Force has not responded to Sighting's request. 148 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:21,000 Next, for 25 years, Debbie Palmer's friends and family have been tortured by one agonizing question. 149 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,000 What happened to Debbie? 150 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,000 I knew she was coming back to me. 151 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:33,000 A young woman disappears. 152 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,000 No sign of foul play. No known enemies. No trace. 153 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,000 When Deborah Palmer's family reported her missing, 154 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,000 the police didn't know she'd been kidnapped, murdered, or had simply walked away from her life. 155 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:49,000 After finding no evidence of a crime, the search for Deborah Palmer was suspended. 156 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:54,000 But in a sad paradox, the very circumstances that caused the police to stop looking 157 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:58,000 are what continue to give her family hope that Deborah will be found. 158 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:09,000 Someone out there knows what happened to Debbie. 159 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,000 Debbie Palmer was the archetypal girl next door. 160 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:18,000 At 18, she was a model and a beauty queen, a fun-loving friend and a doring daughter. 161 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:24,000 Her life was filled with promise for the bright future ahead and the home and family she hoped to have one day. 162 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:31,000 Debbie dreamed of being in the headlines, but when that dream came true, in 1970, the headline read, 163 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,000 Feared Dead. 164 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,000 Debbie and I were like sisters. 165 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:42,000 She was a fun-loving, sweet child that never met a stranger. 166 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:47,000 Everybody was her friend, and she was just precious. 167 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,000 She loved to ride horses. She was a people person. She loved people. 168 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,000 She got along well with everybody. 169 00:10:55,000 --> 00:11:02,000 For 25 years, Anne Palmer has lived with the grief and uncertainty of not knowing what happened to her daughter Debbie. 170 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,000 Even now, she holds out hope that Debbie is alive. 171 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,000 When she first disappeared, I kept hearing her voice say, 172 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,000 Mom, I'm alright. Mom, I'm alright. 173 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:15,000 Anne was an actress, a model, and a single mother. 174 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:19,000 In 1954, she packed up three-year-old Debbie and left Dallas for Hollywood. 175 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,000 They were a family of two, and mother and daughter were exceptionally close. 176 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,000 Anne says their bond went beyond love. 177 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:30,000 Debbie and I had a very powerful psychic connection. 178 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:36,000 When she was a teenager and she would be out late, I could simply think, 179 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,000 Debbie, where are you? 180 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:45,000 Almost within a matter of 15 minutes, the phone would ring, or she'd come home. 181 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:51,000 Shortly before her 19th birthday, Debbie returned to Dallas and moved into her first apartment. 182 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:56,000 She was so popular among the tenants at the Carol Wood apartments they named her Miss Carol Wood. 183 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,000 She seemed to know everyone and had a very active social life. 184 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:04,000 The apartment complex would be the last place anyone remembered seeing Debbie Palmer. 185 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:08,000 She vanished on September 8, 1970. 186 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,000 Well, I didn't know she'd vanished at first. 187 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:16,000 She'd been missing for four days at that point, and so we called the police, 188 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,000 and the police said she's 18, there's nothing we can do. 189 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:26,000 We can't look for her, there's no foul play indicated, and then it was terror. 190 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,000 Once an intense search did begin, the trail had grown cold. 191 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:34,000 The only significant break in the case came two full weeks after her disappearance, 192 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:39,000 the discovery of two packed suitcases in the woods north of Dallas. 193 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,000 I got a call one day from Plano, Texas, from the police department, 194 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:49,000 and they said they had found her luggage and that we could come over and claim it. 195 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,000 Now it was just going to be a matter of time until they found her body. 196 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,000 But Debbie's body was never found. 197 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:59,000 There were no signs of foul play or a reason for Debbie to run. 198 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:04,000 In police work, there are just so many roads you can travel before you hit a dead end. 199 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,000 It is a mystery because we can't determine whether there was foul play involved, 200 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:12,000 whether she's a victim of crime or she simply on her own, 201 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:18,000 simply walked away from her life as it existed then and is still alive somewhere. 202 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:22,000 I look for her at every street for 15 years. 203 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,000 I looked everywhere for her. 204 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,000 I knew I was going to find her. I knew she was coming back to me. 205 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:32,000 Nothing that we heard gave us really hope. I had to keep the hope going. 206 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,000 Roy Brockaway was the sheriff of neighboring Kaufman County. 207 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:40,000 He was a family friend who became closely involved in the investigation. 208 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:47,000 We just never have come across anything that has indicated to us what happened to Debbie. 209 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:53,000 Sightings brought world-renowned psychic detective Dorothy Allison to Dallas to work with the former sheriff. 210 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:59,000 As he drove near Debbie's last known address, Dorothy began to express strong psychic impressions of Debbie. 211 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:06,000 Roy, there's this one forest area where it's real isolated where I believe that girl was taken. 212 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:14,000 Yes, if you've done a murder or anything like that, there is places out here that you can put a body that probably could never be found. 213 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:20,000 Although she did not know where the suitcases had been located, Dorothy guided Roy to a location eerily nearby. 214 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:27,000 Roy, this is the kind of a scene that I actually saw her in. It seems exactly like this spot here. 215 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:36,000 Dorothy's last stop was the Carowood Apartments. Outside Debbie's apartment, Dorothy attempted to psychically reconstruct the final hours before her disappearance. 216 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,000 What happened that night was that they had a very bad argument. 217 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:45,000 She was with this one fellow that she had been going with for a while, and she wanted to get rid of him. 218 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:51,000 And he said he was going out to the store someplace, but I believe he went to pick up some drugs. 219 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:57,000 And then all of a sudden this other fellow comes along. I feel like she was getting rid of one to go with the other. 220 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:01,000 It was a violent fight. I mean, he was really going at it. 221 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:07,000 So he takes her and promises her to take it to a doctor, but instead, he takes her to kill her. 222 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:14,000 Could Debbie Palmer have been murdered, as Dorothy's psychic vision has seemed to suggest? 223 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:19,000 The scenario of jealousy, violence, and drug abuse certainly doesn't fit Debbie's wholesome image. 224 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:25,000 But after Dorothy's psychic revelations, those who knew Debbie best admitted she could have been led astray. 225 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:30,000 It could have been the boyfriend who was a party Thursday night is where she disappeared. 226 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,000 And she said she was going to have a little talk with him. 227 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:39,000 And then nobody remembers seeing her again, and it's possible she went to have that little talk with him, 228 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:45,000 and he didn't like what she was saying, and he lost his temper and killed her. 229 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,000 That's a possibility that's been in my mind all these years. 230 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:52,000 Dorothy showed Sharon the notes from her psychic impressions. 231 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:58,000 Because legal charges have yet to be filed, we asked them to refrain from mentioning actual names of suspects. 232 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:06,000 Now here's a list of the names that I have written down, and you can tell me if you recognize anything there. 233 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:12,000 Without calling names, the first and the last name of the man she was dating, 234 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:19,000 that she was going to have the little talk with to break up with him, his first and last name are both here. 235 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:25,000 And in between is, you have my grandmother's maiden name. 236 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:32,000 Debbie's family and friends were amazed at Dorothy's accuracy about the small details of Debbie's life. 237 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:38,000 But believing Dorothy means confronting the probability that Debbie is dead. 238 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:44,000 How can you say what it's like for 25 years to look for somebody? 239 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:53,000 I will always hope and follow every lead to believe that she might still be alive somewhere in the world today. 240 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:59,000 Since our investigation in Texas, Debbie Palmer's cousin Sharon has contacted the Texas State Police. 241 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,000 She presented the new psychic evidence generated by Dorothy Allison. 242 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:11,000 According to State Police official Jim Chandler, this is not the kind of evidence that they feel justifies a reopening of the Palmer case. 243 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:21,000 Next, medical science discovers oras, and evidence that California's Mammoth Mountain is really a mountain of doom. 244 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:32,000 Here are some of the stories Sightings is following in the news. 245 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:42,000 Geologic discoveries near Mammoth Mountain in Northern California indicate to some that the dire prophecies of futurist Gordon Michael Scallion could be coming true. 246 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:51,000 The picturesque landscape of Mammoth Mountain, California is deceiving. 247 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:58,000 Beneath this pristine forest, there is a boiling, seething lake of molten earth, poised to unleash its fury. 248 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:03,000 That the earth is going to open up in California, and I can tell you exactly where it will open up. 249 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,000 It'll happen between Bakersfield and the Baja to Eureka. 250 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:14,000 While scientists do not take Scallion's prediction seriously, they do agree that the Mammoth area is a volatile location. 251 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:19,000 It's clear that there's going to be eruptions there in the future. 252 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:26,000 It's clear that large areas there will be covered with ash and be destroyed. 253 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:35,000 State University of New York volcanologist Marcus Bersik warns that recent earthquake activity has unleashed a fresh tarn of magma under the Mammoth Lakes area. 254 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:40,000 The effect is similar to shaking a bottle of champagne and releasing carbon dioxide bubbles, 255 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:45,000 but unlike champagne, the concentrations of carbon dioxide under the earth are deadly. 256 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:52,000 Evidence that these poisonous gases are already working their way to the surface was discovered on Mammoth Mountain. 257 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:58,000 Hundreds of trees here were killed by lethal emissions from the volatile magma below. 258 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:05,000 There's a lot of volcanoes in that area, and several of them showed an effect from the lander's earthquake. 259 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:12,000 So this magma is sitting there stewing underneath the surface, and it's emitting this carbon dioxide along with other gases. 260 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:16,000 The last time Mammoth Mountain erupted approximately 700,000 years ago, 261 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:22,000 a dense volcanic cloud blocked out the sun and covered the western United States in a thick layer of ash. 262 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:27,000 Today, there are those who believe the long dormant volcano's time has come again. 263 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:37,000 In the fall of 1967, something strange crashed into the water off Shag Harbor, Nova Scotia. 264 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:44,000 Since then, UFO investigator Chris Stiles has been building an impressive document trail indicating that the Canadian government 265 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,000 knows more about the crash than they're willing to tell. 266 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:54,000 I believe that this was a device from another intelligent civilization, not a dessert. 267 00:19:54,000 --> 00:20:01,000 Now, Chris Stiles and Sightings are mounting a new full-scale investigation to scour the ocean floor beneath Shag Harbor 268 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,000 in search of UFO debris. 269 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,000 Our findings in an upcoming edition of Sightings. 270 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,000 Researchers at Pennsylvania State University are confirming with technology 271 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,000 what some holistic healers have felt for years, 272 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:20,000 that the magnetic field around the human body changes with the onset of disease. 273 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:26,000 Well, this is a picture that shows basically the distribution of the magnetic field of a human body. 274 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:31,000 Michael Smith and his colleagues at the Penn State Magnetic Resonance Imaging Lab 275 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,000 are pioneering a breakthrough technology for surgeons. 276 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:38,000 I can show them the positions of, say, for instance, a tumor. 277 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:43,000 You can show them the presence of a tumor or a disease that they're not aware of. 278 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:48,000 And it really gives them a visual way to look into the human body and see what's wrong. 279 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:55,000 So that's the safe and give you a high resolution, also give you the image of the soft tissue. 280 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,000 The future of MRI technology offers tantalizing possibilities. 281 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,000 But so far, it is only a diagnostic tool. 282 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:09,000 I think the comparison between holistic measurements and techniques in MRI should be viewed with caution. 283 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:14,000 People should use those things that have been proven to be useful to diagnose their disease. 284 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:22,000 We'll have more stories from the news next time. Now, here's what's coming up on Cytines. 285 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:28,000 Dolores Wheeler loved her husband so much, she saved his life 12,000 miles away. 286 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:33,000 And are these pictures of an alien autopsy an incredible find or an incredible fraud? 287 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,000 The risk of sounding pompous, yes, I could have done it a lot better. 288 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:53,000 For nearly 50 years, UFO researchers have been looking for the smoking gun that will prove once and for all that the government is lying about the incident at Roswell, New Mexico. 289 00:21:53,000 --> 00:22:02,000 And now, Cytines correspondent Carla Wall reports that newly discovered film of a bizarre autopsy is adding fuel to the Roswell fire. 290 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:15,000 Since January 1995, the hottest news on the worldwide web of UFO devotees is this photo. 291 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:21,000 Allegedly an extraterrestrial from the Roswell crash site being autopsyed by the U.S. military. 292 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,000 It's the UFO story of the decade. 293 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:31,000 This is an injury and that deep wound is consistent with high-gibberish. 294 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:40,000 If this is truly genuine, then it becomes the focus of worldwide recognition that indeed our planet is being visited, 295 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:48,000 that indeed governments have known for 48 years and haven't told us, the world will never be the same again. 296 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,000 Rumors of a Roswell autopsy film go back to 1993. 297 00:22:52,000 --> 00:23:02,000 London music promoter Ray Santilli told Bufore, the British UFO Research Association, that he had unearthed a bizarre 16-millimeter movie in a private film vault. 298 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,000 Ray Santilli said, I have got my hands on some material. 299 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:21,000 I know nothing about Roswell, but I'm being told by the man who sold this to me that he was in fact a military cameraman with the United States military 300 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:30,000 back in 1947 and he said that this was the official record, U.S. government record of an event which occurred there, 301 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:36,000 i.e. a crashed UFO and the recovery of aliens and of course that debris. 302 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:44,000 Kent Jeffery is the author of the Roswell Declaration, a petition calling for the declassification of all government documents on Roswell. 303 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,000 He eagerly anticipated the release of the autopsy film. 304 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:51,000 When I first heard about the film, I was very hopeful. 305 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:58,000 I thought that we finally had what we'd been looking for in the way of evidence to prove this case. 306 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:05,000 However, in the ensuing months as I learned more and more facts about the film, I became less and less optimistic. 307 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:12,000 Now Santilli says he has had it authenticated. He went to Kodak and they said, yes, this is film stock from the 1940s. 308 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,000 Kodak did not authenticate the film. 309 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:22,000 What Santilli did was go to Kodak and get clarification on the edge markings. 310 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:27,000 The edge markings on the film are a square and a triangle. 311 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:35,000 That signifies that the film was manufactured in either 1927 or 1947 or 1967. 312 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:43,000 The only thing Kodak did was to verify that that is the case, that those edge markings signify those years. 313 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:49,000 Rand Molnar, Dean of the Brooks Institute of Photography finds it highly suspicious. 314 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:54,000 That's Santilli went no further in his attempts to authenticate the film. 315 00:24:54,000 --> 00:25:02,000 If this were a legitimate film with historical value, then I would think he would take every measure possible to try to get this authenticated. 316 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:11,000 Taking it to an expert, to someone here or elsewhere, they could look at the film, analyze it, and then make a determination 317 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:15,000 on whether it's actually legitimate or if it should be tested further, 318 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:22,000 or if there's something else that can be done with it to try to authenticate what event is transpiring on it supposedly. 319 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:29,000 The dissemination of information from Ray Santilli in London is extremely unorthodox. 320 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:36,000 It is extremely unusual for research of any kind to be carried out in this way. 321 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:44,000 Rather than release the film in its entirety, Santilli selectively leaked small portions of the film at invitation-only screenings. 322 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,000 Many in attendance left unconvinced. 323 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:53,000 I still had a great deal of hope when I went over there to see the film. 324 00:25:53,000 --> 00:26:03,000 However, from the first few frames I realized that this was a hoax, that this was a human body on that table. 325 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:11,000 When you realize what you're saying, you're saying that they used a human body, a dead person, to perpetrate this hoax. 326 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:17,000 That is not only my opinion, but the opinion of most of the medical people who have seen this film now. 327 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,000 And that makes it one of the most despicable hoaxes ever perpetrated. 328 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,000 Can I move head-side to side? 329 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:28,000 Makeup effects artist Steve Johnson built the aliens for the movie Roswell. 330 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:36,000 He agrees that the autopsy film is a hoax that it's not flesh and blood you're seeing, but a rip-off of his special effects creations. 331 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,000 Could you have done this? 332 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:41,000 The risk of sounding pompous, yes, I could have done it a lot better. 333 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:48,000 The main thing is it never proves once to me that this is a dead body. 334 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:55,000 For instance, when they make incisions, they will begin the incision, then they cut away, or they cut in tighter. 335 00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:00,000 From a special effects technicians point of view, they used every trick that I would have asked a director to use, 336 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,000 had a director come to me and said, I want to do this great autopsy scene. 337 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:07,000 What are some of the tricks that you think they use specifically? 338 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:13,000 Human bodies do not bleed after they're dead. The blood coagulates in the veins, then settles to the lowest point. 339 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,000 If you incise them, they don't bleed. This thing did bleed. 340 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,000 And I thought, well, simplest, oldest trick in the book is a blood knife. 341 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:20,000 Show me. 342 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:26,000 It looks pretty much like that, because it does leave a line, and then a few trickles come out. 343 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,000 And that's it. I mean, simple as that. 344 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,000 I think so. 345 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,000 Why do you think someone did it? 346 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:35,000 It would be exciting, in a perverse kind of way, to be able to fool a lot of people like this. 347 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,000 There is a lot of money being changed hands. 348 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:41,000 In fact, Santilli has profited from the autopsy film. 349 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:47,000 He's reportedly signed six-figure deals with American, French and Japanese television networks. 350 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:53,000 To put together folks like this would require a tremendous amount of time, effort and money. 351 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:58,000 Certainly, the Roswell incident is one of the better documented UFO incidents. 352 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:03,000 So this would be a likely candidate or there in some obscure thing. 353 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:09,000 Many ufologists worry that the flap over Santilli's film is obscuring the real story of Roswell. 354 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:15,000 UFO researcher Clifford Stone gave me a tour of the old Roswell military base. 355 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:25,000 In July of 1947, this building right here housed a secret that the United States government didn't want to talk about. 356 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:33,000 As a matter of fact, I would state that they considered that secret so sensitive that it was rated higher than even the hydrogen bomb. 357 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:39,000 According to Stone, while the autopsy film may be a hoax, the recovery of aliens is not. 358 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:45,000 Bodies were seen by many people including some credible military witnesses. 359 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:56,000 Among those propounding a theory of government cover-up is Walter Haught, the former Air Force Lieutenant who was ordered to write the Roswell press release, stating the UFO was a weather balloon. 360 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:06,000 I feel very, very sincerely that it was a cover-up. It was a way of varying something. I guess that's the easiest word to use. 361 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:12,000 Could Ray Santilli be just another unwitting pawn in a Roswell disinformation campaign? 362 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:19,000 Disinformation is not a word that a lot of people like. It implies our own government is putting out false stories. 363 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,000 Gee, really? Could they do that? Yes. 364 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:34,000 One of the things that you normally do in the intelligence community, all kinds everywhere, if some truth leaks out that you don't want leaked out, you flood the market with garbage. 365 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,000 Then there's no way to separate out them. 366 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:44,000 Do you hope that there is another film or some other evidence out there to prove that Roswell did in fact happen? 367 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:48,000 I certainly do, and I think it's a real possibility. 368 00:29:48,000 --> 00:30:03,000 And we are working very hard on trying to find any individuals who might have such evidence or who may have even just participated and now be willing to talk so that this information can be shared with the rest of the world. 369 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:14,000 Nearly everyone who's studied the Roswell autopsy film is convinced that it's a hoax. But Ray Santilli, the owner of the film, stands by its authenticity. 370 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:19,000 Next, a story of life-saving love that transcends time and space. 371 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:24,000 I felt a presence around me. I lucked up and I saw my wife. 372 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:38,000 In 1970, Jack and Dolores Wheeler promised to love, honor and cherish each other till death did them part. 373 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:43,000 Within a year, the significance of those wedding vows would be tested on a Vietnam battlefield. 374 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:53,000 Because of what happened there, Jack Wheeler has come to believe that his wife's love is a part of a supernatural force that saved his life more than once. 375 00:30:54,000 --> 00:31:02,000 We just had an instant attraction for each other. 376 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:07,000 I'll never forget the first time I saw her when she came into the ring there in this sorority house. 377 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:16,000 Love at first sight only begins to describe the instant inexplicable bond that Jack and Dolores felt for each other from the moment they met. 378 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,000 He had asked me to marry him like three months after we met. 379 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:25,000 There was a whirlwind romance, a fairytale wedding, and then a phone call from the draft board. 380 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,000 After only one month of marriage, the Wheelers were separated by the Vietnam War. 381 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:41,000 Here we had just gotten married and we're unsure as to the relationship and how it would survive with her staying in school and still going to college while I went off to Vietnam. 382 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:45,000 I wrote to him every day and I thought of him constantly. 383 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:50,000 I knew he was in battle, but I didn't really want to think about it. 384 00:31:50,000 --> 00:32:00,000 But while Dolores tried to push thoughts of danger out of her conscious mind, Jack insists that his new bride was still connected to him through her unconscious. 385 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:03,000 Something got me up that night. 386 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:08,000 There'd been a break in the fighting. The unrelenting sound of gunfire had stopped. 387 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:13,000 Jack Wheeler was asleep in what infantry soldiers in Vietnam called a hooch. 388 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:21,000 I was laying there and it was 2, 3 in the morning and I felt a presence around me. 389 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:30,000 And I looked up and I saw my wife in a long robe, came beaconing to me. 390 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:40,000 And I got up, went outside the hooch, and I was maybe 20 or 30 feet from it. 391 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:45,000 And suddenly there were two loud explosions. 392 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:50,000 Two mortar rounds had come in and it hit the hooch where I was. 393 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:56,000 And there was shrapnel throughout it and shrapnel throughout the cod and everything. 394 00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:00,000 And people would ask why I wasn't in the hooch. 395 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:07,000 I'm convinced that I saw her. I mean, it was very difficult to understand and nobody understood it and you couldn't explain it. 396 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:11,000 And to this day I can't explain it. 397 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:16,000 Back in the United States, Dolores Wheeler was unaware of Jack's close call 398 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:23,000 and the fact that he had seen her exact double image beckoning him away from impending danger. 399 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:34,000 There's the Latin term alter ego. There's the Norse term faradogar, which means forerunner. 400 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:39,000 Don Ward is a UCLA folklorist specializing in tales of the supernatural. 401 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:43,000 He uses the word doppelganger to describe what Jack Wheeler experienced. 402 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:47,000 It's a German word for a universal phenomenon. 403 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:55,000 That is the notion that the human spirit has an essence of its own that can be perceived visually by other people. 404 00:33:55,000 --> 00:34:03,000 And it is identical to the person themselves right down to the clothes they wear. 405 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,000 But Jack Wheeler knew nothing of doppelgangers. 406 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:12,000 He only knew that somehow from a vast distance, Dolores was continuing to protect him from harm. 407 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:18,000 The choppers picked us up. They gave us some new rations and cut some mail. 408 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:24,000 It was like seven or eight letters that I got from my wife. 409 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:29,000 We were flying in and I had one that I was trying to read it there, but you get your pack on and your weapon. 410 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:36,000 The doors of the chopper open so the wind's blowing and I was reading this letter from her 411 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:43,000 and it just started to turn the page when suddenly it flew out of my hand. 412 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:54,000 So I sort of got up partially and scooted back to grab the letter and just as I did, enemy fire. 413 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:59,000 Jack believes that if he hadn't ducked for that letter, he would have been killed. 414 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:05,000 And the other men in his unit did die that day and Jack wondered what special force had spared him once again. 415 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:12,000 A lot of mental activity occurs strictly on an unconscious level and this may have been what was happening with Mrs. Wheeler. 416 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:18,000 She may have been unconsciously aware of her husband's dangers half a world away in Vietnam. 417 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:23,000 Professor John Roehner chronicles the Wheeler's experience in this collection of true stories. 418 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:33,000 His thoughts probably were almost continually on her and hers on him and I think that may have precipitated a telepathic connection and even a visitation. 419 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:43,000 We got hit. I took a bullet in my hip and a bullet in my shoulder and the chopper crashed into some trees. 420 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:48,000 And I was just laying there and I was about 20 or 30 feet from the ground. 421 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:58,000 I was about to fall down and I could see this image of my wife and she had her arms out like to come from here to catch me. 422 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:04,000 And then I remember falling and her catching me. 423 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:10,000 And I was unconscious and when I came to, they had me back in the base camp. 424 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:18,000 They said that I just fallen down and it landed in a stream and that it had broken my fall. 425 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:28,000 When he finally returned home, Jack told no one, not even Dolores, about the eerie visitations he had experienced in the jungles of Vietnam. 426 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:32,000 It was several years after he had returned from Vietnam. 427 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:42,000 We were in the living room and he started telling me about the time that I came to him and did this and that and I just said, whoa, I came to you over there. 428 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:48,000 That's impossible. You know, that's crazy. And, you know, we didn't talk about it for a while. 429 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:56,000 And then when I would read something that was similar, I'd say, well, tell me some more about what you experienced. 430 00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:02,000 And then I found out there were quite a few people that had experienced the same thing. 431 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:13,000 There's a man in England. His name was Terrell, who came up with a theory and stated that there were such things as apparitions which required two people. 432 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:19,000 They had to be an agent to send the message and there had to be the recipient to perceive it. 433 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:25,000 The experiencing of the double occurred when these two people were in conjunction with one another. 434 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:29,000 After the war, Jack and Dolores devoted themselves to home and family. 435 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:40,000 Dolores's special life-saving gift seemed to be a part of the past until April 19, 1995, when Jack was just a little late getting to his Oklahoma City office. 436 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:49,000 Ironically, I got angry at my wife for getting me up five minutes late because I told her I needed to be in at this meeting and I had some stuff I needed to do and I needed to be in the office at nine. 437 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:55,000 She said that she was busy doing some things and she just didn't realize what time it was. 438 00:37:55,000 --> 00:38:07,000 I went through my normal routine and just left the house five minutes late. I was driving in to work and normally I'm directly in front of the federal building. 439 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:16,000 For Jack, the extra five minutes that his wife allowed him to oversleep would mean the difference between life and death. 440 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:28,000 The explosion was like at 9 o'clock, 9.02, which is almost every morning I'm right there. 441 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:39,000 And this morning, since I was about five minutes late, I was just exiting off of the freeway, getting on the 6th Street when the explosion occurred. 442 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:48,000 Where he parked his cars were all the cars caught on fire. A few minutes off, either way, he would have been seriously injured. 443 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:59,000 The wheelers believed that it was something deep into Loris' spirit that somehow kept Jack away from ground zero. His office was demolished. 444 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:05,000 If he had been sitting at his desk as he had every other morning, he would not have survived the blast. 445 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:16,000 I believe she has a gift. She has an ability to sense needs of her loved ones and be able to protect them. 446 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:29,000 All I know is that I've experienced these things and I don't believe that I'm dreaming. I just know that that is what I experienced and that's what I've observed and that's what I've lived. 447 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:41,000 Although Jack Wheeler's life was spared, the family's happiness is bittersweet. They wonder why so many lives had to be lost inside the Offered Pima or a federal building. 448 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,000 And they pray it will never happen again. 449 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:48,000 Next, startling new evidence of a big foot in the wooded hills of Ohio. 450 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:51,000 When somebody told me there was a big foot in Ohio, I laughed. 451 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:08,000 Bigfoot expeditions have become a kind of a cottage industry of the Pacific Northwest, entering Bigfoot country, the billboards proclaim. 452 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:18,000 But recent sightings 1500 miles to the east seem to indicate that Bigfoot's range may extend all the way across the Rockies and into the Midwest. 453 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:44,000 The probability of a Bigfoot being sighted in Ohio obviously is lower than in the Northwest, but you can never exclude it absolutely because historically there have been a goodly number of sightings made in that area of the country. 454 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:57,000 Biologist Dr. Henner Ferenbach specializes in primate research at a college near his home in Beaverton, Oregon. His extensive analysis of Bigfoot evidence grew out of a casual interest in the subject during the 1960s. 455 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:09,000 Scientists that are ordinarily quite rational refuse to even inform themselves of the evidence that is available. They rejected as if it was a ghost. 456 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:13,000 When somebody told me there was a big foot in Ohio, I laughed. I didn't believe it. 457 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:20,000 But compelling physical evidence and eyewitness reports have made George Clapperson and Jody Cook believers. 458 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:30,000 Together they have formed the Ohio Bigfoot Research and Study Group in Cincinnati, Ohio. A 24-hour Bigfoot hotline has been set up to record area sightings. 459 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:45,000 They make a report in 1988. You investigate it in 95 and everything is still exactly the same. They take you to where they had the sighting and there's fresh evidence where they had their sighting years ago. That's pretty convincing. 460 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:58,000 In February of 1995, Clapperson and Cook discovered an anomalous structure near Akron, Ohio that they believe may be a Bigfoot nest. It is similar to but larger than nesting sites of other primates. 461 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:10,000 It was about four and a half feet high and about five and a half feet long. It was completely hollow on the inside. It was big enough for three of us to go and sit in comfortably. 462 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:20,000 Are these the sounds of Bigfoot? Sightings receive these sounds recorded in Ohio by Bigfoot researcher Matt Moneymaker. 463 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:26,000 The recording is part of an extensive surveillance project that Moneymaker is conducting in southern Ohio. 464 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:32,000 Sightings will bring you more on the results of this investigation on a future edition of our program. 465 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:40,000 Peter Byrne of the Bigfoot Research Project is cautiously optimistic about the reported sightings in Ohio. 466 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:50,000 In an average six month period Byrne receives more than 3,000 calls, but from those calls less than five are found to be credible sightings. 467 00:42:51,000 --> 00:43:03,000 If you've had a paranormal experience, please write to us at Sightings.
