1 00:00:00,900 --> 00:00:05,749 and this is weapons 2 00:00:10,190 --> 00:00:08,030 let's talk about this idea because uh 3 00:00:12,049 --> 00:00:10,200 the other aspect of it that gets a lot 4 00:00:14,330 --> 00:00:12,059 of attention now including from critics 5 00:00:17,570 --> 00:00:14,340 and debunkers are creatures call them 6 00:00:19,730 --> 00:00:17,580 Cryptids animals that don't really exist 7 00:00:21,890 --> 00:00:19,740 there were you guys saw those things at 8 00:00:23,689 --> 00:00:21,900 the Rancher Psalm other people who live 9 00:00:25,429 --> 00:00:23,699 in an area saw these things 10 00:00:27,349 --> 00:00:25,439 animals that should not be there 11 00:00:29,929 --> 00:00:27,359 remember one of the stories we told in 12 00:00:32,330 --> 00:00:29,939 the book was about a a big hyena 13 00:00:34,670 --> 00:00:32,340 muscular hyena thing with the tail of 14 00:00:36,770 --> 00:00:34,680 what looked like a fox a big bushy tail 15 00:00:39,110 --> 00:00:36,780 right that was attacking a horse it 16 00:00:41,090 --> 00:00:39,120 actually wounded the horses calves with 17 00:00:44,470 --> 00:00:41,100 these scratches and then disappeared 18 00:00:47,090 --> 00:00:44,480 there were the Rancher who shot two 19 00:00:49,790 --> 00:00:47,100 creatures out of a tree one great big 20 00:00:52,010 --> 00:00:49,800 realm thing he shot it and it vanished 21 00:00:53,930 --> 00:00:52,020 he shot something else out of a tree and 22 00:00:56,209 --> 00:00:53,940 it was like a dinosaur it left these two 23 00:00:58,369 --> 00:00:56,219 really weird tracks in the snow and you 24 00:01:00,610 --> 00:00:58,379 guys go in and Chase it there were other 25 00:01:03,170 --> 00:01:00,620 animals other creatures that were seen 26 00:01:05,090 --> 00:01:03,180 exotic birds things that don't belong 27 00:01:07,370 --> 00:01:05,100 there they're not native it was as if 28 00:01:10,190 --> 00:01:07,380 they're from another reality it was as 29 00:01:12,530 --> 00:01:10,200 if they're from another time right um it 30 00:01:14,929 --> 00:01:12,540 was almost as if you were being shown 31 00:01:16,850 --> 00:01:14,939 this stuff it was so ridiculous that no 32 00:01:18,890 --> 00:01:16,860 one could possibly believe it these 33 00:01:21,649 --> 00:01:18,900 things don't exist and yet there they 34 00:01:23,630 --> 00:01:21,659 are yeah I mean there's there's I think 35 00:01:26,749 --> 00:01:23,640 Jacques Vale coined this term as well 36 00:01:29,210 --> 00:01:26,759 level of absurdity associated with the 37 00:01:31,969 --> 00:01:29,220 with these kinds of reports and 38 00:01:33,410 --> 00:01:31,979 sightings that you know you know that if 39 00:01:35,210 --> 00:01:33,420 you report this kind of stuff you're 40 00:01:37,550 --> 00:01:35,220 going to be ridiculed 41 00:01:42,230 --> 00:01:37,560 um but the fact is during the OSAP 42 00:01:45,469 --> 00:01:42,240 program we did start investigating uh 43 00:01:48,050 --> 00:01:45,479 activity with these uh sightings around 44 00:01:50,749 --> 00:01:48,060 the the ranch all of the neighbors and 45 00:01:52,249 --> 00:01:50,759 within a two mile radius or so we 46 00:01:55,490 --> 00:01:52,259 interviewed a lot of different people 47 00:01:59,770 --> 00:01:55,500 and we accumulated a ridiculous number 48 00:02:02,630 --> 00:01:59,780 of anecdotal stories of people reporting 49 00:02:06,350 --> 00:02:02,640 creatures everything from these kind of 50 00:02:09,109 --> 00:02:06,360 item the the Gargoyles that are on top 51 00:02:11,809 --> 00:02:09,119 of Notre Dame cathedral in Paris you 52 00:02:14,150 --> 00:02:11,819 know sort of these types of of creatures 53 00:02:18,170 --> 00:02:14,160 that were seen within a mile of the 54 00:02:22,309 --> 00:02:18,180 ranch we also had sort of various 55 00:02:24,350 --> 00:02:22,319 um iterations of two legs or four-legged 56 00:02:26,990 --> 00:02:24,360 creatures that were walking on two legs 57 00:02:30,050 --> 00:02:27,000 that are anatomically impossible for 58 00:02:33,170 --> 00:02:30,060 these kinds of wolves or coyotes to be 59 00:02:36,050 --> 00:02:33,180 able to walk on on two legs we had many 60 00:02:38,210 --> 00:02:36,060 many stories of of those so what we 61 00:02:40,850 --> 00:02:38,220 actually did towards the end of the ASAP 62 00:02:44,089 --> 00:02:40,860 program was that we we constructed a 63 00:02:46,970 --> 00:02:44,099 Google map version of the Skinwalker 64 00:02:50,270 --> 00:02:46,980 Ranch and we overlaid all of the 65 00:02:52,190 --> 00:02:50,280 eyewitness locations who had seen these 66 00:02:55,009 --> 00:02:52,200 and we're talking dozens of different 67 00:02:58,250 --> 00:02:55,019 people who had seen these uh creatures 68 00:03:01,369 --> 00:02:58,260 and so then we we asked part of the 69 00:03:03,470 --> 00:03:01,379 interview process was was we asked what 70 00:03:06,949 --> 00:03:03,480 direction these creatures were moving 71 00:03:09,670 --> 00:03:06,959 when they were seen and we mapped all of 72 00:03:12,589 --> 00:03:09,680 that stuff on a Google map 73 00:03:16,190 --> 00:03:12,599 and we looked at it and lo and behold 74 00:03:18,410 --> 00:03:16,200 there was a very striking pattern all of 75 00:03:20,869 --> 00:03:18,420 these creatures were starting off in the 76 00:03:22,790 --> 00:03:20,879 Southeast and they were moving in a 77 00:03:25,430 --> 00:03:22,800 northwesterly Direction 78 00:03:27,589 --> 00:03:25,440 so you could see on the Google Map a 79 00:03:29,630 --> 00:03:27,599 series of lines that crisscrossed the 80 00:03:31,670 --> 00:03:29,640 ranch but they were all moving from 81 00:03:35,149 --> 00:03:31,680 Southeast to Northwest 82 00:03:37,130 --> 00:03:35,159 there's a story that that we told in the 83 00:03:38,809 --> 00:03:37,140 hunt for the skinwalker and column and I 84 00:03:40,789 --> 00:03:38,819 debated about it geez do we include this 85 00:03:42,890 --> 00:03:40,799 one because it's pretty crazy it was uh 86 00:03:45,410 --> 00:03:42,900 the these the witnesses or police 87 00:03:47,089 --> 00:03:45,420 officers they're cops uh and Tribal 88 00:03:50,570 --> 00:03:47,099 Police right and they come around a 89 00:03:53,690 --> 00:03:50,580 corner yeah at night uh up on the the 90 00:03:55,430 --> 00:03:53,700 paved Road up or near the the dirt road 91 00:03:57,710 --> 00:03:55,440 that you take into the ranch and they 92 00:04:00,710 --> 00:03:57,720 see these figures standing in trench 93 00:04:03,410 --> 00:04:00,720 coats smoking cigarettes and they shine 94 00:04:05,750 --> 00:04:03,420 a light on them and they're dogs and we 95 00:04:08,030 --> 00:04:05,760 had to debate do we do we put this in 96 00:04:08,990 --> 00:04:08,040 that these two dogs are smoking 97 00:04:10,789 --> 00:04:09,000 cigarettes 98 00:04:12,410 --> 00:04:10,799 we figured well what the heck does just 99 00:04:14,750 --> 00:04:12,420 throw it throw it out there look I mean 100 00:04:17,150 --> 00:04:14,760 yeah you guys get so much for that 101 00:04:19,069 --> 00:04:17,160 for including what you're told by the 102 00:04:20,990 --> 00:04:19,079 law enforcement there and I I've also 103 00:04:22,430 --> 00:04:21,000 experienced like when we earned the 104 00:04:25,070 --> 00:04:22,440 trust and we're allowed to be the first 105 00:04:26,810 --> 00:04:25,080 to film with certain uh youth tribe 106 00:04:29,270 --> 00:04:26,820 members and law enforcement members some 107 00:04:30,710 --> 00:04:29,280 off camera some on camera there's a big 108 00:04:34,610 --> 00:04:30,720 difference of someone just telling you a 109 00:04:36,110 --> 00:04:34,620 tall tale and then just seeing the fear 110 00:04:39,290 --> 00:04:36,120 in their eyes and hearing what happened 111 00:04:41,030 --> 00:04:39,300 to them after that event and and the 112 00:04:42,350 --> 00:04:41,040 impact it had on their families they're 113 00:04:44,510 --> 00:04:42,360 they're telling you a serious is a heart 114 00:04:47,629 --> 00:04:44,520 attack I'm just taking the stance of 115 00:04:50,150 --> 00:04:47,639 like even I have an allergy to these 116 00:04:52,550 --> 00:04:50,160 stories that someone tells you something 117 00:04:56,210 --> 00:04:52,560 fine I'm just saying that that's what 118 00:04:58,070 --> 00:04:56,220 happens it's too big it's too outrageous 119 00:04:59,390 --> 00:04:58,080 I'm glad you did put in the book you're 120 00:05:02,270 --> 00:04:59,400 reporting the news that's what you're 121 00:05:06,110 --> 00:05:02,280 supposed to do but you you 122 00:05:07,850 --> 00:05:06,120 actually saw in a tree I mean you had a 123 00:05:09,650 --> 00:05:07,860 personal experience and I know you and I 124 00:05:11,749 --> 00:05:09,660 know the way your mind works and I know 125 00:05:13,550 --> 00:05:11,759 that there's there how serious is you 126 00:05:14,510 --> 00:05:13,560 some of your responsibilities are you're 127 00:05:17,150 --> 00:05:14,520 going to tell you're going to shoot me 128 00:05:20,030 --> 00:05:17,160 straight but so when when Colin when you 129 00:05:22,969 --> 00:05:20,040 tell me what you saw you know and and 130 00:05:24,950 --> 00:05:22,979 then it means more to me because I'm one 131 00:05:27,110 --> 00:05:24,960 degree from somebody that that I know 132 00:05:29,090 --> 00:05:27,120 and trust and go have a beer with so I'm 133 00:05:31,310 --> 00:05:29,100 just saying it yeah you know what we 134 00:05:32,749 --> 00:05:31,320 hear uh no I've seen it a bunch of times 135 00:05:34,550 --> 00:05:32,759 if you don't have a photo it didn't 136 00:05:36,409 --> 00:05:34,560 happen well you know how it would work 137 00:05:38,990 --> 00:05:36,419 is if you did have a photo the photo is 138 00:05:41,150 --> 00:05:39,000 not real but uh you know whatever the 139 00:05:42,290 --> 00:05:41,160 level of evidence is it wouldn't ever be 140 00:05:44,210 --> 00:05:42,300 enough for people who don't want to 141 00:05:46,730 --> 00:05:44,220 believe it but as you said some of it 142 00:05:48,350 --> 00:05:46,740 seems to be ridiculous by Design so 143 00:05:51,770 --> 00:05:48,360 Preposterous that nobody could believe 144 00:05:52,850 --> 00:05:51,780 it and it it's so imaginative but um you 145 00:05:54,830 --> 00:05:52,860 know 146 00:05:56,810 --> 00:05:54,840 bottle Hollow for example we haven't 147 00:05:58,010 --> 00:05:56,820 talked about that on any podcasts or 148 00:05:59,810 --> 00:05:58,020 interviews that you and I have done but 149 00:06:02,150 --> 00:05:59,820 we we did include a little bit of it in 150 00:06:04,189 --> 00:06:02,160 your film Jeremy bottle Hollow is not 151 00:06:07,129 --> 00:06:04,199 Loch Ness it's not thousands of years 152 00:06:09,830 --> 00:06:07,139 old it's a it's a reservoir created a 153 00:06:12,050 --> 00:06:09,840 less than 200 years ago and yet it's got 154 00:06:14,930 --> 00:06:12,060 stories of creatures that sound much 155 00:06:16,610 --> 00:06:14,940 like the creatures you'd see in lakes 156 00:06:20,210 --> 00:06:16,620 around the world that are much much 157 00:06:21,529 --> 00:06:20,220 older not only creatures but lights and 158 00:06:23,629 --> 00:06:21,539 things that come out of the sky you and 159 00:06:25,550 --> 00:06:23,639 I interviewed some some witnesses right 160 00:06:28,129 --> 00:06:25,560 on the on the shores of bottle Hollow 161 00:06:30,710 --> 00:06:28,139 what do you make of that yeah I mean 162 00:06:33,350 --> 00:06:30,720 that that as you say that this is not 163 00:06:35,990 --> 00:06:33,360 sort of thousands of years old but it's 164 00:06:39,170 --> 00:06:36,000 also happens to be right beside uh skin 165 00:06:41,749 --> 00:06:39,180 marker wrench and within almost shouting 166 00:06:42,650 --> 00:06:41,759 distance of skin walk around so 167 00:06:45,409 --> 00:06:42,660 um 168 00:06:47,990 --> 00:06:45,419 all of the interviews that we did are 169 00:06:50,450 --> 00:06:48,000 consistent with this sort of 170 00:06:53,510 --> 00:06:50,460 um skin marker wrench is not anything 171 00:06:56,650 --> 00:06:53,520 exceptional it just happens to have been 172 00:07:01,790 --> 00:06:56,660 studied intensively since 173 00:07:05,330 --> 00:07:01,800 1994 or slash 1996 but you know all of 174 00:07:09,010 --> 00:07:05,340 the all of the areas around Skinwalker 175 00:07:13,070 --> 00:07:09,020 Ranch are privy to this 176 00:07:15,770 --> 00:07:13,080 absurd a level of activity that includes 177 00:07:18,650 --> 00:07:15,780 a paranormal phenomena includes 178 00:07:21,969 --> 00:07:18,660 Poltergeist phenomena and also includes 179 00:07:25,129 --> 00:07:21,979 metallic objects that seem seem to be 180 00:07:27,350 --> 00:07:25,139 co-located and are appearing and 181 00:07:30,550 --> 00:07:27,360 disappearing at the same time now the 182 00:07:33,770 --> 00:07:30,560 question are is are these completely 183 00:07:37,010 --> 00:07:33,780 unrelated phenomena or should they not 184 00:07:38,110 --> 00:07:37,020 be reported alongside these creature 185 00:07:40,909 --> 00:07:38,120 type type 186 00:07:43,790 --> 00:07:40,919 activities should they not be reported 187 00:07:47,950 --> 00:07:43,800 alongside the metallic objects that are 188 00:07:50,749 --> 00:07:47,960 seen and reported or should all of this 189 00:07:52,969 --> 00:07:50,759 all of these phenomena be reported I 190 00:07:55,670 --> 00:07:52,979 mean that's kind of the central question 191 00:07:58,430 --> 00:07:55,680 that preoccupies people and it certainly 192 00:08:01,129 --> 00:07:58,440 preoccupied us when we were initiating 193 00:08:03,830 --> 00:08:01,139 the OSAP program because we knew we 194 00:08:07,129 --> 00:08:03,840 would run into this this discrepancy 195 00:08:09,350 --> 00:08:07,139 between what is acceptable versus what 196 00:08:11,089 --> 00:08:09,360 what is not acceptable right now nuts 197 00:08:13,010 --> 00:08:11,099 and bolts UFO compared right so of 198 00:08:14,809 --> 00:08:13,020 course you should report everything what 199 00:08:16,550 --> 00:08:14,819 you're talking about is you have this 200 00:08:18,830 --> 00:08:16,560 Dia government program to look at 201 00:08:20,990 --> 00:08:18,840 high-end technology Maybe by Foreign 202 00:08:22,850 --> 00:08:21,000 adversary should we tell them that a lot 203 00:08:24,529 --> 00:08:22,860 of this is associated with these 204 00:08:26,150 --> 00:08:24,539 absolutely bizarre things that's the 205 00:08:27,589 --> 00:08:26,160 discrepancy as reporters we're going to 206 00:08:29,629 --> 00:08:27,599 report the news like you did about the 207 00:08:32,570 --> 00:08:29,639 the story from the cops of the smoking 208 00:08:35,449 --> 00:08:32,580 dog that whole thing but you know this 209 00:08:39,230 --> 00:08:35,459 idea that the entire you into base and 210 00:08:41,389 --> 00:08:39,240 is homogeneously having these 211 00:08:43,790 --> 00:08:41,399 experiences and it's not just a cultural 212 00:08:46,670 --> 00:08:43,800 thing from from a different generation 213 00:08:48,590 --> 00:08:46,680 that was what's so interesting to me you 214 00:08:51,230 --> 00:08:48,600 bring people into that area who are like 215 00:08:53,090 --> 00:08:51,240 you science scientists and you bring 216 00:08:55,910 --> 00:08:53,100 every kind of person from every kind of 217 00:08:58,550 --> 00:08:55,920 culture given enough time not one day on 218 00:09:00,650 --> 00:08:58,560 the ranch not two days hundreds and 219 00:09:04,310 --> 00:09:00,660 hundreds of 24-hour surveillance days 220 00:09:05,930 --> 00:09:04,320 under unique circumstances bam it's not 221 00:09:07,490 --> 00:09:05,940 a cultural thing in that area that 222 00:09:09,650 --> 00:09:07,500 really dawned on me when we did a bunch 223 00:09:12,650 --> 00:09:09,660 of our interviews you know so so that's 224 00:09:15,410 --> 00:09:12,660 interesting I don't get why this one 225 00:09:18,410 --> 00:09:15,420 area although there's others why an area 226 00:09:20,570 --> 00:09:18,420 would have more of this unless it's some 227 00:09:22,730 --> 00:09:20,580 Advanced uh technology from a nation 228 00:09:25,310 --> 00:09:22,740 that wants to like try out the beta test 229 00:09:27,050 --> 00:09:25,320 their stuff or even our own why this 230 00:09:28,670 --> 00:09:27,060 area there's no answer to that right 231 00:09:31,610 --> 00:09:28,680 that we know of 232 00:09:33,110 --> 00:09:31,620 um all of the the different hot spots 233 00:09:35,690 --> 00:09:33,120 around the United States and around 234 00:09:36,829 --> 00:09:35,700 Europe and in different there's really 235 00:09:40,190 --> 00:09:36,839 no 236 00:09:41,750 --> 00:09:40,200 obvious explanation of why these hot 237 00:09:44,750 --> 00:09:41,760 spots 238 00:09:47,630 --> 00:09:44,760 um exist but they are they definitely 239 00:09:49,250 --> 00:09:47,640 exist uh the Uinta Basin is is the 240 00:09:51,170 --> 00:09:49,260 obvious example we've got another one 241 00:09:54,350 --> 00:09:51,180 we've spent a lot of time in Dulce in 242 00:09:56,870 --> 00:09:54,360 New Mexico the overlap between the sort 243 00:09:58,730 --> 00:09:56,880 of bizarre 244 00:10:02,030 --> 00:09:58,740 um you know 245 00:10:04,670 --> 00:10:02,040 nutsibles craft and then bizarre 246 00:10:08,269 --> 00:10:04,680 creatures is the same in Northern New 247 00:10:10,190 --> 00:10:08,279 Mexico as it was or in the Uinta Basin I 248 00:10:11,750 --> 00:10:10,200 think the all of the legends that came 249 00:10:14,329 --> 00:10:11,760 out of the San Luis Valley in Colorado 250 00:10:17,030 --> 00:10:14,339 for example that Chris O'Brien and 251 00:10:18,829 --> 00:10:17,040 others have reported on you've got sort 252 00:10:22,250 --> 00:10:18,839 of the black triangle phenomenon you've 253 00:10:25,790 --> 00:10:22,260 got various UFOs metallic objects 254 00:10:28,790 --> 00:10:25,800 overlaid exactly with Bigfoot and with a 255 00:10:32,030 --> 00:10:28,800 lot of different anomalies and uh 256 00:10:34,550 --> 00:10:32,040 paranormal effects so you know Jacques 257 00:10:38,150 --> 00:10:34,560 Vale coined this term that the hilltop 258 00:10:42,230 --> 00:10:38,160 effect you know that that if you go in 259 00:10:44,389 --> 00:10:42,240 to investigate a UFO phenomenon you the 260 00:10:47,210 --> 00:10:44,399 first layer of interviewing of the 261 00:10:51,050 --> 00:10:47,220 witnesses you get all of the uh all of 262 00:10:52,790 --> 00:10:51,060 the reports about The anecdotal sort of 263 00:10:54,769 --> 00:10:52,800 metallic craft that appeared and 264 00:10:57,530 --> 00:10:54,779 disappeared it did right angle turns of 265 00:11:00,829 --> 00:10:57,540 the sky it was it was flashing bright 266 00:11:03,650 --> 00:11:00,839 red and bright bright blue colors that 267 00:11:06,170 --> 00:11:03,660 kind of thing but you know his his whole 268 00:11:09,889 --> 00:11:06,180 thing was that if you keep on going back 269 00:11:12,769 --> 00:11:09,899 Time After Time After Time the witnesses 270 00:11:15,350 --> 00:11:12,779 start trusting you and when they start 271 00:11:17,030 --> 00:11:15,360 trusting you they start opening up to 272 00:11:19,190 --> 00:11:17,040 the rest of this and then they start 273 00:11:21,410 --> 00:11:19,200 talking about the weird stuff that they 274 00:11:24,410 --> 00:11:21,420 wouldn't dream of of telling a stranger 275 00:11:27,170 --> 00:11:24,420 so you've got a lot of these 276 00:11:29,210 --> 00:11:27,180 investigations that happen and you've 277 00:11:31,130 --> 00:11:29,220 only got the left hand part of the the 278 00:11:33,250 --> 00:11:31,140 hilltop curve 279 00:11:37,009 --> 00:11:33,260 and it's kind of like this gaussian 280 00:11:41,030 --> 00:11:37,019 curve that is as as you go further and 281 00:11:43,850 --> 00:11:41,040 further you've got a lot of activity a 282 00:11:48,230 --> 00:11:43,860 lot of reports but the weirder things 283 00:11:50,930 --> 00:11:48,240 become the less reporting happens yeah 284 00:11:53,030 --> 00:11:50,940 people come to us all the time very 285 00:11:55,130 --> 00:11:53,040 serious people that work in you know 286 00:11:56,630 --> 00:11:55,140 really you know secure jobs right 287 00:11:59,269 --> 00:11:56,640 security jobs that kind of thing for our 288 00:12:02,150 --> 00:11:59,279 nation and they'll be like just want you 289 00:12:04,910 --> 00:12:02,160 to know and it is a nuts and bolts story 290 00:12:07,490 --> 00:12:04,920 an explanation 291 00:12:08,930 --> 00:12:07,500 just nuts and bolts from a very serious 292 00:12:10,490 --> 00:12:08,940 Engineers that kind of thing just using 293 00:12:14,030 --> 00:12:10,500 an example 294 00:12:15,470 --> 00:12:14,040 after a couple weeks maybe a month 295 00:12:17,810 --> 00:12:15,480 it'll be like 296 00:12:20,810 --> 00:12:17,820 there's one other thing I I don't know 297 00:12:22,910 --> 00:12:20,820 if it's Associated specifically with 298 00:12:25,190 --> 00:12:22,920 what I told you I saw that I know for 299 00:12:28,850 --> 00:12:25,200 sure is right and then I'm like here it 300 00:12:32,150 --> 00:12:28,860 comes there's there's often times this 301 00:12:35,269 --> 00:12:32,160 other element to it that transcends the 302 00:12:38,509 --> 00:12:35,279 physical nuts and bolts aspect of UFOs 303 00:12:40,610 --> 00:12:38,519 maybe it's a Consciousness effect maybe 304 00:12:42,530 --> 00:12:40,620 it's I don't know what to name it I 305 00:12:44,810 --> 00:12:42,540 can't deny that that is often it says 306 00:12:46,850 --> 00:12:44,820 not always at all not always right but 307 00:12:48,470 --> 00:12:46,860 it's a lot a lot and it's there and it's 308 00:12:50,569 --> 00:12:48,480 in your face sometimes it goes the heart 309 00:12:52,790 --> 00:12:50,579 of what OSAP was supposed to be and 310 00:12:54,710 --> 00:12:52,800 people who only have read a little bit 311 00:12:57,050 --> 00:12:54,720 about it who thinks they're experts say 312 00:12:59,210 --> 00:12:57,060 the ones who will say it was supposed to 313 00:13:01,370 --> 00:12:59,220 be a UFO program or the ones who 314 00:13:03,470 --> 00:13:01,380 criticize there's no language about UFOs 315 00:13:05,629 --> 00:13:03,480 in any of the documents and you did that 316 00:13:07,250 --> 00:13:05,639 on purpose and then those who will say 317 00:13:08,930 --> 00:13:07,260 it was killed because it looked at all 318 00:13:11,569 --> 00:13:08,940 this crazy weird stuff 319 00:13:13,190 --> 00:13:11,579 the fact is you are never going to solve 320 00:13:14,329 --> 00:13:13,200 this mystery without including the weird 321 00:13:15,949 --> 00:13:14,339 stuff you're talking about the hilltop 322 00:13:18,110 --> 00:13:15,959 effect right I wanted you to continue 323 00:13:20,389 --> 00:13:18,120 your metaphor there about why that works 324 00:13:23,150 --> 00:13:20,399 if you only look at the hilltops you 325 00:13:25,190 --> 00:13:23,160 don't look at all I mean it it it's it 326 00:13:27,710 --> 00:13:25,200 is like 327 00:13:31,910 --> 00:13:27,720 um imagine that you're starting off on 328 00:13:33,170 --> 00:13:31,920 uh on on a new program to map out the 329 00:13:37,069 --> 00:13:33,180 topography 330 00:13:38,569 --> 00:13:37,079 of of an unknown you know area that has 331 00:13:41,389 --> 00:13:38,579 never been met before 332 00:13:43,610 --> 00:13:41,399 and sort of you assemble a team to start 333 00:13:46,310 --> 00:13:43,620 doing that whole process of mapping it 334 00:13:48,470 --> 00:13:46,320 out and then you've got some guy from 335 00:13:51,889 --> 00:13:48,480 the back of the who's probably 336 00:13:53,329 --> 00:13:51,899 associated with usdi office of you under 337 00:13:56,389 --> 00:13:53,339 secretary of defense for intelligence 338 00:13:58,670 --> 00:13:56,399 who suddenly pipes up and say okay we're 339 00:14:01,850 --> 00:13:58,680 only going to look at 340 00:14:04,009 --> 00:14:01,860 the tops of the mountains or the hills 341 00:14:06,290 --> 00:14:04,019 because that's what's used because in 342 00:14:08,690 --> 00:14:06,300 his mind well that's it this is this is 343 00:14:11,750 --> 00:14:08,700 only uh the Department of Defense only 344 00:14:13,550 --> 00:14:11,760 remit is to look at the mountaintops 345 00:14:15,110 --> 00:14:13,560 we're going to ignore the sides of the 346 00:14:16,550 --> 00:14:15,120 mountains we're going to ignore the 347 00:14:19,069 --> 00:14:16,560 Canyons we're going to ignore the 348 00:14:21,170 --> 00:14:19,079 valleys because that's outside the remit 349 00:14:22,790 --> 00:14:21,180 of the Department of Defense the only 350 00:14:25,910 --> 00:14:22,800 thing the Department of Defense is 351 00:14:28,790 --> 00:14:25,920 interested in is in the mountaintops and 352 00:14:31,389 --> 00:14:28,800 so this program then proceeds to spend 353 00:14:34,190 --> 00:14:31,399 enormous amounts of time and energy 354 00:14:36,350 --> 00:14:34,200 analyzing the mountaintops and then 355 00:14:40,069 --> 00:14:36,360 suddenly uh 356 00:14:43,670 --> 00:14:40,079 were were put into a war situation where 357 00:14:46,790 --> 00:14:43,680 we have to encounter this 358 00:14:49,250 --> 00:14:46,800 um this topography and we have no idea 359 00:14:50,870 --> 00:14:49,260 of what the sides of the mountains look 360 00:14:52,430 --> 00:14:50,880 like we have no idea what the Canyons 361 00:14:53,930 --> 00:14:52,440 look like we have no idea what the 362 00:14:55,430 --> 00:14:53,940 values look like because all you study 363 00:14:57,230 --> 00:14:55,440 was the milk because the only thing we 364 00:15:00,530 --> 00:14:57,240 know anything about is the mountaintops 365 00:15:04,189 --> 00:15:00,540 so I'm using this as a metaphor for the 366 00:15:06,470 --> 00:15:04,199 sort of the the tendency to lock away 367 00:15:09,050 --> 00:15:06,480 um you know what allsop originally was 368 00:15:12,769 --> 00:15:09,060 going to be studying which would be only 369 00:15:15,650 --> 00:15:12,779 sensor driven data and only sort of the 370 00:15:17,750 --> 00:15:15,660 metallic craft you're missing 371 00:15:21,170 --> 00:15:17,760 um you're missing the great underbelly 372 00:15:24,050 --> 00:15:21,180 of what actually may be important to 373 00:15:27,050 --> 00:15:24,060 study and so you know it's a metaphor 374 00:15:30,410 --> 00:15:27,060 that that could be used but it's 375 00:15:34,250 --> 00:15:30,420 certainly during the OSAP program 376 00:15:37,790 --> 00:15:34,260 we discussed many many times and long 377 00:15:40,250 --> 00:15:37,800 and long discussions between the defense 378 00:15:44,750 --> 00:15:40,260 intelligence agency and the OSAP people 379 00:15:47,750 --> 00:15:44,760 in Las Vegas and the intent was to leave 380 00:15:52,009 --> 00:15:47,760 no stone unturned that we would database 381 00:15:54,470 --> 00:15:52,019 everything that we came across and then 382 00:15:56,870 --> 00:15:54,480 we would decide to include or not 383 00:15:59,870 --> 00:15:56,880 include it later after a sufficient 384 00:16:02,389 --> 00:15:59,880 analysis had been done to decide okay 385 00:16:04,490 --> 00:16:02,399 these are probably separate phenomena 386 00:16:07,430 --> 00:16:04,500 let's eliminate these from the the 387 00:16:10,430 --> 00:16:07,440 database but we don't just go in and 388 00:16:12,829 --> 00:16:10,440 focus only on the nuts and bolts 389 00:16:16,069 --> 00:16:12,839 phenomena and to the exclusion of 390 00:16:18,829 --> 00:16:16,079 everything else because we don't know if 391 00:16:21,350 --> 00:16:18,839 that all of that sort of weird extra 392 00:16:22,970 --> 00:16:21,360 stuff is associated with the phenomena 393 00:16:24,410 --> 00:16:22,980 we don't have enough data to make that
