"The Proof is Out There" UFO vs Fighter Jet, Cosmic Question Mark, Highway 97 Bigfoot Howls

1 00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:03,476 Tonight on "the proof is out there." 2 00:00:03,500 --> 00:00:06,056 Is this a ufo tracking an American fighter plane? 3 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:08,596 I can't think of anything that size and shape 4 00:00:08,620 --> 00:00:10,516 that would be able to keep up with a jet fighter. 5 00:00:10,540 --> 00:00:13,226 Is this a sea serpent in north Carolina? 6 00:00:13,250 --> 00:00:14,676 Look at that. 7 00:00:14,700 --> 00:00:15,886 I haven't seen anything like that 8 00:00:15,910 --> 00:00:17,476 and I've lived down here for 20 years. 9 00:00:17,500 --> 00:00:20,516 Is this a message from another galaxy? 10 00:00:20,540 --> 00:00:23,726 Voyager introduced prospective extraterrestrials 11 00:00:23,750 --> 00:00:25,016 to our civilization. 12 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:26,886 Maybe this is their response. 13 00:00:26,910 --> 00:00:30,040 And why are geese mobbing this car? 14 00:00:31,290 --> 00:00:33,266 The earth is going through some changes 15 00:00:33,290 --> 00:00:36,870 that we don't sense but the animals do. 16 00:00:40,870 --> 00:00:44,266 Around the globe are videos... What are those things? 17 00:00:44,290 --> 00:00:45,556 It's moving. 18 00:00:45,580 --> 00:00:49,500 Photos and sounds that defy explanation. 19 00:00:54,540 --> 00:00:56,346 We don't know where they come from, 20 00:00:56,370 --> 00:00:58,016 who made them, or how they operate. 21 00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:59,176 What are they? 22 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,176 Some sort of bizarre mutation. 23 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:02,766 What's exciting is nobody really knows. 24 00:01:02,790 --> 00:01:07,040 Extraordinary claims need extraordinary proof. 25 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:09,346 I'm Tony Harris 26 00:01:09,370 --> 00:01:11,476 and as a journalist for more than 30 years, 27 00:01:11,500 --> 00:01:14,516 I've followed the facts where they take me. 28 00:01:14,540 --> 00:01:16,636 Now, I'm bringing that spirit of investigation 29 00:01:16,660 --> 00:01:19,450 to the world's strangest sounds and images. 30 00:01:20,500 --> 00:01:23,346 We'll analyze each one with top experts. 31 00:01:23,370 --> 00:01:26,346 It's a credible case, it's a credible video. 32 00:01:26,370 --> 00:01:29,226 And pass a verdict on what it is. 33 00:01:29,250 --> 00:01:31,176 This video was clearly faked. 34 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,540 The proof starts now. 35 00:01:41,790 --> 00:01:42,926 Good evening, everyone 36 00:01:42,950 --> 00:01:45,136 and welcome to "the proof is out there." 37 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,886 Tonight, we start near the southern border. 38 00:01:47,910 --> 00:01:49,426 Within the past few years, 39 00:01:49,450 --> 00:01:52,886 three videos shot in Arizona were leaked to the public. 40 00:01:52,910 --> 00:01:54,386 They reignited the conversation 41 00:01:54,410 --> 00:01:57,266 about uaps and border security. 42 00:01:57,290 --> 00:01:59,976 We've investigated two of these cases before. 43 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,016 Here is the latest clip. 44 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:06,306 April 14th, 2021, east of tombstone, Arizona. 45 00:02:06,330 --> 00:02:07,886 It's shortly after 11:00 P.M. 46 00:02:07,910 --> 00:02:10,346 And an agent with the department of homeland security 47 00:02:10,370 --> 00:02:13,346 is tracking an a-10 warthog plane. 48 00:02:13,370 --> 00:02:17,266 He's operating a forward-looking infrared camera, or flir, 49 00:02:17,290 --> 00:02:18,846 mounted atop a truck. 50 00:02:18,870 --> 00:02:21,636 The a-10 appears silhouetted because with this camera, 51 00:02:21,660 --> 00:02:25,596 hot objects are black while cooler objects appear white. 52 00:02:25,620 --> 00:02:28,346 The leaker didn't elaborate on why this plane 53 00:02:28,370 --> 00:02:31,346 is flying over Arizona or why a dhs agent 54 00:02:31,370 --> 00:02:34,016 would be filming it, but it's in our hands 55 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,660 because nobody expected what happened next. 56 00:02:38,370 --> 00:02:41,596 A spherical object appears to be chasing the fighter jet. 57 00:02:41,620 --> 00:02:42,766 Like the a-10, 58 00:02:42,790 --> 00:02:46,676 the object's heat signature is also black hot. 59 00:02:46,700 --> 00:02:49,176 But when the agent changes to a different setting, 60 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:53,266 the uap shows up like a bright orb trailing the a-10. 61 00:02:53,290 --> 00:02:55,346 At times the light is traveling so fast, 62 00:02:55,370 --> 00:02:58,096 the flir operator has problems following it 63 00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,806 and keeping it in frame. 64 00:02:59,830 --> 00:03:01,386 This video remained secret 65 00:03:01,410 --> 00:03:05,346 until it was sent to ufo investigator Andy marcial. 66 00:03:05,370 --> 00:03:08,886 When I saw this and I realized that this was real, 67 00:03:08,910 --> 00:03:13,500 I understood that what I got my hands on was a big deal. 68 00:03:14,540 --> 00:03:16,556 For some, this Arizona sighting 69 00:03:16,580 --> 00:03:19,056 falls in line with much of what we've heard 70 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,426 about uaps from other government sources. 71 00:03:22,450 --> 00:03:25,726 At an April 2023 congressional hearing, 72 00:03:25,750 --> 00:03:29,176 Dr. Sean kirkpatrick, the head of aaro, testified 73 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,176 that in 52% of all uap cases it has investigated, 74 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:34,596 the objects are spherical, 75 00:03:34,620 --> 00:03:38,226 most measure between one and four meters across. 76 00:03:38,250 --> 00:03:39,676 Orbs like this one uncovered 77 00:03:39,700 --> 00:03:42,596 by investigative journalist Jeremy corbell. 78 00:03:42,620 --> 00:03:44,976 This unidentified object was photographed 79 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,426 over mosul, Iraq in 2016. 80 00:03:47,450 --> 00:03:49,346 And usually, their method 81 00:03:49,370 --> 00:03:52,766 of propulsion is never immediately obvious. 82 00:03:52,790 --> 00:03:57,346 This sighting falls into all of the major categories. 83 00:03:57,370 --> 00:04:00,766 Aaro is the all-domain anomaly resolution office, 84 00:04:00,790 --> 00:04:03,266 the department of defense's official agency 85 00:04:03,290 --> 00:04:06,386 for tracking unidentified aerial phenomena. 86 00:04:06,410 --> 00:04:08,346 And teitel notes they've seen 87 00:04:08,370 --> 00:04:11,266 some similarities more concerning than others. 88 00:04:11,290 --> 00:04:14,096 Kirkpatrick also presented a number of cases 89 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,386 where spherical ufos are seen trailing military planes. 90 00:04:18,410 --> 00:04:20,766 The video shows that the object is keeping up 91 00:04:20,790 --> 00:04:23,886 with the a-10 warthog like it's nothing. 92 00:04:23,910 --> 00:04:27,426 This has led some people to wonder whether these spheres 93 00:04:27,450 --> 00:04:31,500 are actually aliens tracking our military technology. 94 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,766 There are many reasons why extraterrestrials 95 00:04:36,790 --> 00:04:38,886 might be interested in our military. 96 00:04:38,910 --> 00:04:41,306 Surveillance, curiosity. 97 00:04:41,330 --> 00:04:43,596 One former NASA astronaut has even claimed 98 00:04:43,620 --> 00:04:46,476 that aliens prevented a nuclear exchange 99 00:04:46,500 --> 00:04:48,676 during the peak of the cold war. 100 00:04:48,700 --> 00:04:52,516 So were aliens really monitoring the a-10 warthog 101 00:04:52,540 --> 00:04:56,200 or was this something else flying in the plane's airspace? 102 00:04:59,540 --> 00:05:01,016 After releasing the footage, 103 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,726 Andy marcial went to his friend David falch for answers. 104 00:05:05,750 --> 00:05:08,636 Falch is a flir technician and operator 105 00:05:08,660 --> 00:05:12,596 who works with the exact same cameras our video was shot on. 106 00:05:12,620 --> 00:05:15,976 The first question is, could this be much ado about nothing? 107 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,176 Are we simply looking at a bird? 108 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:19,596 It appears that the object 109 00:05:19,620 --> 00:05:22,346 is flying around the same speed as the aircraft, 110 00:05:22,370 --> 00:05:26,676 which is traveling about 340 to 350 miles an hour. 111 00:05:26,700 --> 00:05:30,636 I don't know any birds that fly 350 miles an hour. 112 00:05:30,660 --> 00:05:32,346 Next, we check with rich Hoffman 113 00:05:32,370 --> 00:05:34,806 of the scientific coalition for uap studies. 114 00:05:34,830 --> 00:05:37,806 If it's not a bird, could it be another object 115 00:05:37,830 --> 00:05:40,726 seen over the Arizona desert nowadays? 116 00:05:40,750 --> 00:05:43,346 Within the last year alone, 117 00:05:43,370 --> 00:05:46,846 there's been about maybe 2,200 incidents reported 118 00:05:46,870 --> 00:05:50,176 by homeland security of drones being used 119 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,636 to carry drugs across the border and into us territory. 120 00:05:54,660 --> 00:05:57,676 However, a drone wouldn't be changing the shape. 121 00:05:57,700 --> 00:06:00,676 This particular object doesn't remain round. 122 00:06:00,700 --> 00:06:02,926 In fact, we don't know of any technology 123 00:06:02,950 --> 00:06:06,226 that changes shape like this as it flies. 124 00:06:06,250 --> 00:06:09,516 What kind of airborne object can change its shape? 125 00:06:09,540 --> 00:06:12,306 Perhaps a balloon in the process of deflating? 126 00:06:12,330 --> 00:06:15,516 We asked astronomer and visual effects artist Marc d'Antonio 127 00:06:15,540 --> 00:06:18,306 whether or not that theory is full of hot air. 128 00:06:18,330 --> 00:06:19,516 Could it be a balloon? 129 00:06:19,540 --> 00:06:22,556 Probably not, based on the speed of its motion. 130 00:06:22,580 --> 00:06:24,056 It looks like it's something 131 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,926 that's moving along under its own power fast enough 132 00:06:26,950 --> 00:06:29,596 so that it can stay in the field of the a-10. 133 00:06:29,620 --> 00:06:31,726 Now, it's still possible 134 00:06:31,750 --> 00:06:34,926 it could be caught in a fast-moving wind column. 135 00:06:34,950 --> 00:06:36,806 The winds and jet streams on average 136 00:06:36,830 --> 00:06:39,676 reach speeds of about 110 miles per hour. 137 00:06:39,700 --> 00:06:41,766 But if a balloon was caught in that stream, 138 00:06:41,790 --> 00:06:43,676 how could it keep up with the warthog, 139 00:06:43,700 --> 00:06:46,926 which typically flies at 350 miles per hour? 140 00:06:46,950 --> 00:06:50,016 So with no earthly explanation for this object, 141 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,056 could we be looking at something truly extraterrestrial? 142 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:54,596 It's changing its size. 143 00:06:54,620 --> 00:06:58,500 We don't know any craft or any objects that can do that. 144 00:07:03,540 --> 00:07:07,386 Our verdict, we're calling this one a genuine ufo 145 00:07:07,410 --> 00:07:10,016 and it's worth noting we see striking 146 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,846 similarities here to other government-released videos 147 00:07:12,870 --> 00:07:16,266 like the infamous USS nimitz Tic Tac. 148 00:07:16,290 --> 00:07:18,016 But let's be cautious here. 149 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:22,306 We're still uncertain this object is of alien origin. 150 00:07:22,330 --> 00:07:24,660 In any case, Andy, keep 'em coming. 151 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,516 Now from the desert to the water. 152 00:07:28,540 --> 00:07:31,636 As we've noted before, Scotland's Nessie 153 00:07:31,660 --> 00:07:35,346 isn't the world's only legendary aquatic monster. 154 00:07:35,370 --> 00:07:38,056 People have spotted them right here in the us 155 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,136 and some videos are a cut above the rest. 156 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:42,766 Check out this footage. 157 00:07:42,790 --> 00:07:47,056 It's January 3rd, 2023 in more head city, north Carolina. 158 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,056 Captain Daniel griffee and his girlfriend Ashley Wright 159 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,056 are out in the port on his boat 160 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,766 when they see something strange lurking in the waters. 161 00:07:55,790 --> 00:07:59,556 Daniel pulls out his phone and takes a video of a mysterious, 162 00:07:59,580 --> 00:08:02,886 possibly snake-like animal circling his boat. 163 00:08:02,910 --> 00:08:06,136 Here's the moment it briefly pops its head out of the water. 164 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:07,596 Look at that. 165 00:08:07,620 --> 00:08:10,176 The couple is shocked by its sheer size. 166 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,016 My boat is 22 foot long 167 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,346 and it had to be every bit of 25, 30 feet. 168 00:08:15,370 --> 00:08:18,596 It wasn't like something I had seen in the water before. 169 00:08:18,620 --> 00:08:21,766 We didn't have any idea what type of creature it was. 170 00:08:21,790 --> 00:08:24,556 The animal looks like a cross between an alligator, 171 00:08:24,580 --> 00:08:26,556 a manatee, and a dolphin. 172 00:08:26,580 --> 00:08:29,016 Yet compared to the length of Daniel's boat, it appears 173 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,096 to be much bigger than any of those aquatic animals, 174 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,266 though it's difficult to Gauge the size 175 00:08:34,290 --> 00:08:36,016 with the shot zoomed in. 176 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,886 Field researcher Ken gerhard knows the south 177 00:08:38,910 --> 00:08:41,886 is no stranger to mysterious water monsters. 178 00:08:41,910 --> 00:08:44,556 200 miles up the coast from this location, 179 00:08:44,580 --> 00:08:46,726 we come to chesapeake bay 180 00:08:46,750 --> 00:08:48,676 nestled between Maryland and Virginia, 181 00:08:48,700 --> 00:08:50,846 which is home to a monster known as chessie. 182 00:08:50,870 --> 00:08:52,636 Chessie is typically described 183 00:08:52,660 --> 00:08:56,676 as a dark gray serpentine animal about 20 to 40 feet long 184 00:08:56,700 --> 00:08:58,806 with a football-shaped head. 185 00:08:58,830 --> 00:09:01,516 The most notable chessie sighting on record 186 00:09:01,540 --> 00:09:04,976 occurred in 1982 when a man named Bob frew 187 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,346 videotaped a suspicious animal swimming 188 00:09:07,370 --> 00:09:10,016 near his dock on Kent island, Maryland. 189 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,516 He described it as being up to 40 feet long 190 00:09:12,540 --> 00:09:14,846 and he couldn't tell what it was for sure. 191 00:09:14,870 --> 00:09:16,886 Scientists from the Smithsonian institute 192 00:09:16,910 --> 00:09:19,266 reviewed the footage and admitted 193 00:09:19,290 --> 00:09:22,556 that it appeared to show some type of animal that was real, 194 00:09:22,580 --> 00:09:25,596 that was animate and that he was not familiar with. 195 00:09:25,620 --> 00:09:28,676 Another nearby legend is Georgia's altamaha-ha, 196 00:09:28,700 --> 00:09:30,516 believed to live in the coastal marshes 197 00:09:30,540 --> 00:09:33,266 around the mouth of the altamaha river. 198 00:09:33,290 --> 00:09:34,676 This iconic sea monster 199 00:09:34,700 --> 00:09:37,426 with the flippers of a seal has in recent times 200 00:09:37,450 --> 00:09:39,806 been reported as being 30 feet long, 201 00:09:39,830 --> 00:09:42,750 just like the creature spotted in north Carolina. 202 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,096 In 1830, the captain of the schooner eagle 203 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,676 claimed he saw altamaha-ha off the coast of Georgia. 204 00:09:50,700 --> 00:09:52,846 He described it as about 70 feet long 205 00:09:52,870 --> 00:09:55,386 with large protruding eyes, sharp teeth, 206 00:09:55,410 --> 00:09:57,266 with an alligator-shaped head 207 00:09:57,290 --> 00:09:59,176 to go along with its long tail. 208 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,726 Could the creature in the video have migrated from Georgia 209 00:10:02,750 --> 00:10:04,886 to north Carolina's crystal coast? 210 00:10:04,910 --> 00:10:09,330 Let's see if our experts can reel in this maritime mystery. 211 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,016 Let's do some process of elimination. 212 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,516 First, could this be an alligator? 213 00:10:17,540 --> 00:10:20,056 Well, it's not moving like an alligator would. 214 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,596 Alligators swim more at the top of the water. 215 00:10:23,620 --> 00:10:25,516 Their tail is propelling them forward, 216 00:10:25,540 --> 00:10:27,976 moving back and forth horizontally. 217 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,266 Manka says that in contrast, this sea creature 218 00:10:31,290 --> 00:10:35,016 is propelling itself by moving its tail vertically. 219 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:36,766 It's undulating through the water. 220 00:10:36,790 --> 00:10:39,266 So it's going to the surface and going up and down, 221 00:10:39,290 --> 00:10:40,726 up and down repeatedly. 222 00:10:40,750 --> 00:10:42,386 Another disqualifier, 223 00:10:42,410 --> 00:10:44,676 this doesn't look like alligator skin. 224 00:10:44,700 --> 00:10:46,016 Especially in this shot right here 225 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,476 when it's coming out of the water, 226 00:10:47,500 --> 00:10:48,766 the skin looks really smooth. 227 00:10:48,790 --> 00:10:50,346 I'm not seeing the bumpy scales 228 00:10:50,370 --> 00:10:52,676 that you would see on an alligator. 229 00:10:52,700 --> 00:10:54,766 Okay, then could it be a different reptile, 230 00:10:54,790 --> 00:10:56,176 like a giant sea snake? 231 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,846 Sea snakes can get big, but not that big 232 00:10:58,870 --> 00:11:00,596 and they're long and skinny. 233 00:11:00,620 --> 00:11:02,676 This animal is really thick. 234 00:11:02,700 --> 00:11:06,846 Even a thicker snake like an anaconda or a python, 235 00:11:06,870 --> 00:11:10,056 I still don't think it would be as thick as this animal. 236 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,016 Another obvious possibility 237 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,926 often seen in the outer banks is the dolphin, 238 00:11:14,950 --> 00:11:16,846 but that's not a good fit either. 239 00:11:16,870 --> 00:11:18,926 The nose and face of this creature 240 00:11:18,950 --> 00:11:22,726 look too wide to be that of a porpoise or a dolphin 241 00:11:22,750 --> 00:11:27,676 and we don't see that dorsal fin or the fin on the back 242 00:11:27,700 --> 00:11:30,766 that we would see for a dolphin or a porpoise. 243 00:11:30,790 --> 00:11:32,726 Though before we plunge into the theory 244 00:11:32,750 --> 00:11:34,886 that this is in fact a legendary sea monster, 245 00:11:34,910 --> 00:11:36,846 this creature does have one feature 246 00:11:36,870 --> 00:11:39,516 found on a dolphin or porpoise that might 247 00:11:39,540 --> 00:11:42,766 provide the definitive clue, a blowhole. 248 00:11:42,790 --> 00:11:47,016 Based on the timing and the anatomical features 249 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,176 that I'm seeing, a defined backbone, 250 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:54,556 a dynamic tail that is horizontally-oriented, 251 00:11:54,580 --> 00:11:57,516 and what appears to be a blowhole, 252 00:11:57,540 --> 00:11:59,976 I think that this is actually 253 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,976 the calf of a northern right whale. 254 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,346 These animals actually do travel 255 00:12:05,370 --> 00:12:09,226 as far south as north Carolina to have their young 256 00:12:09,250 --> 00:12:11,016 during the winter months. 257 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,886 So the time and the location matches up. 258 00:12:13,910 --> 00:12:16,886 But how do you explain its slithering body? 259 00:12:16,910 --> 00:12:18,676 A whale that slithers? 260 00:12:18,700 --> 00:12:20,766 This is actually pretty normal movement 261 00:12:20,790 --> 00:12:22,596 for a juvenile whale. 262 00:12:22,620 --> 00:12:25,016 They're pretty active and dynamic. 263 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,226 But the other thing we might be seeing here 264 00:12:27,250 --> 00:12:30,426 is that because this animal is so weak, it's being pushed 265 00:12:30,450 --> 00:12:33,540 by the current and actually just trying to stay upright. 266 00:12:37,410 --> 00:12:41,846 Our verdict, this is a north Atlantic right whale calf. 267 00:12:41,870 --> 00:12:43,136 It is one of the world's 268 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,306 most endangered large whale species. 269 00:12:45,330 --> 00:12:49,200 So Daniel and Ashley are very lucky they got a sneak peek. 270 00:12:53,290 --> 00:12:55,676 In Great Britain, a moor is an open, 271 00:12:55,700 --> 00:12:57,846 hilly area of rough grass, 272 00:12:57,870 --> 00:13:01,726 sometimes wet, sometimes dry, and fairly isolated. 273 00:13:01,750 --> 00:13:03,346 The Yorkshire moors is where 274 00:13:03,370 --> 00:13:06,136 the classic novel "wuthering heights" is set. 275 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,016 Well, according to one person, 276 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,846 the moors should also be known for something else, 277 00:13:10,870 --> 00:13:12,410 alien encounters. 278 00:13:13,410 --> 00:13:15,676 It's December 1st, 1987. 279 00:13:15,700 --> 00:13:18,016 A story goes that a retired police officer 280 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,176 named Philip Spencer was taking a routine 281 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,306 morning walk across ilkley moor in west Yorkshire, 282 00:13:23,330 --> 00:13:26,266 England, when his life changed forever. 283 00:13:26,290 --> 00:13:28,676 Local resident and tour guide Tim barber 284 00:13:28,700 --> 00:13:32,926 knows Spencer's tale and this mysterious landscape well. 285 00:13:32,950 --> 00:13:35,136 Ilkley moor is this wild landscape 286 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,976 full of Heather and wild marsh grasses. 287 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,766 So it's quite a desolate environment 288 00:13:40,790 --> 00:13:42,766 and if I'm taking people up on the moors, 289 00:13:42,790 --> 00:13:45,926 the story of Philip Spencer always comes out. 290 00:13:45,950 --> 00:13:47,976 Barber says back in 1987, 291 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,846 Spencer was walking along the moors 292 00:13:49,870 --> 00:13:52,056 with his camera when he saw something strange 293 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,700 in the distance, and that's when he captured this. 294 00:13:57,370 --> 00:14:00,096 He started to come across, see a figure 295 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,726 which he just thought was another hiker. 296 00:14:01,750 --> 00:14:03,266 But as he got closer, 297 00:14:03,290 --> 00:14:05,346 the figure seemed to be quite strange. 298 00:14:05,370 --> 00:14:09,306 It's got an enlarged head, large, long arms, 299 00:14:09,330 --> 00:14:12,330 and by all account, had a green tinge. 300 00:14:13,330 --> 00:14:16,556 This thing is pretty creepy-looking. 301 00:14:16,580 --> 00:14:18,136 It doesn't look quite human. 302 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,636 Obviously, it's of a mist-shrouded location, 303 00:14:21,660 --> 00:14:24,370 so we don't get a really clear visual. 304 00:14:25,660 --> 00:14:28,556 Years later, the photo showed up on the Internet. 305 00:14:28,580 --> 00:14:30,596 By that time, it had been enhanced. 306 00:14:30,620 --> 00:14:33,926 Three versions emerged in different color schemes. 307 00:14:33,950 --> 00:14:35,676 In the enhancements, you can see 308 00:14:35,700 --> 00:14:38,766 what looks to be a face with dark eyes. 309 00:14:38,790 --> 00:14:40,976 It has long arms and large hands. 310 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,886 That helps make sense of the rest of Spencer's story. 311 00:14:43,910 --> 00:14:47,016 Shortly after this, the creature vanished 312 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:51,346 and he saw what looked to be a strange type of craft 313 00:14:51,370 --> 00:14:54,016 taking off in the distance and going up into the air. 314 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:55,636 The next thing Spencer remembered 315 00:14:55,660 --> 00:14:57,726 was his watch was behind by an hour 316 00:14:57,750 --> 00:14:59,346 and the magnetic compass that he had taken 317 00:14:59,370 --> 00:15:02,806 with him on the hike had reversed polarity. 318 00:15:02,830 --> 00:15:05,386 He surmised that in that lost amount of time, 319 00:15:05,410 --> 00:15:08,426 he'd been hit with an enormous amount of energy. 320 00:15:08,450 --> 00:15:11,846 In fact, he believed he'd been abducted. 321 00:15:11,870 --> 00:15:13,806 Aware his story was hard to believe, 322 00:15:13,830 --> 00:15:15,976 he created the pseudonym Philip Spencer 323 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,676 to protect his identity. 324 00:15:17,700 --> 00:15:20,346 We don't know what his real name was 325 00:15:20,370 --> 00:15:22,976 and can't even confirm he was an ex-policeman. 326 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,056 But Ken gerhard says what is certain 327 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,596 is the area's connection to ufos. 328 00:15:27,620 --> 00:15:30,346 This sighting is just one of several in the area 329 00:15:30,370 --> 00:15:32,846 which actually lies near an ancient, 330 00:15:32,870 --> 00:15:36,596 neolithic stone circle known as the 12 apostles 331 00:15:36,620 --> 00:15:39,556 and like many ancient monolithic sites in England, 332 00:15:39,580 --> 00:15:42,346 it's very mysterious, we're not really sure who made it. 333 00:15:42,370 --> 00:15:44,676 There are some who say that this ancient circle 334 00:15:44,700 --> 00:15:47,976 is actually evidence that aliens visited the moors 335 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,016 a millennia go and that the visitations 336 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:51,580 continue to this very day. 337 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,976 In 2011, britain's telegraph newspaper 338 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,846 called the ilkley moor alien sighting 339 00:15:58,870 --> 00:16:01,806 one of the top 10 UK ufo incidents of all time. 340 00:16:01,830 --> 00:16:03,676 For decades, the original photo 341 00:16:03,700 --> 00:16:08,016 and the enhancement have been studied backwards and forwards 342 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,120 and now it's time for our experts to take a look. 343 00:16:15,250 --> 00:16:17,976 First, we ask anthropologist Kathy strain 344 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,976 to examine the enhanced photo. 345 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,846 The only thing that I can tell 346 00:16:21,870 --> 00:16:24,806 from the photo is that it's bipedal. 347 00:16:24,830 --> 00:16:27,306 I find it creepy in the sense 348 00:16:27,330 --> 00:16:31,426 that it doesn't immediately look like a human. 349 00:16:31,450 --> 00:16:34,386 All the other animals that exist in England, 350 00:16:34,410 --> 00:16:39,226 they're four-legged hoofed animals, dogs, cows, deer. 351 00:16:39,250 --> 00:16:41,556 So I do not know if what we are seeing 352 00:16:41,580 --> 00:16:44,346 in that photograph is an alien or not. 353 00:16:44,370 --> 00:16:46,016 Next, we take it to 354 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,596 forensic photo and video analyst Michael primeau. 355 00:16:48,620 --> 00:16:50,426 What I find peculiar is that 356 00:16:50,450 --> 00:16:54,766 when I examine images like this, there's always only one. 357 00:16:54,790 --> 00:16:56,176 The operator could have captured 358 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,636 multiple images, so why didn't they? 359 00:16:58,660 --> 00:17:00,426 But it's the enhanced versions 360 00:17:00,450 --> 00:17:04,266 of the photograph that lead primeau to have grave doubts. 361 00:17:04,290 --> 00:17:05,726 What we're looking at here 362 00:17:05,750 --> 00:17:08,476 is three different iterations of this creature 363 00:17:08,500 --> 00:17:10,636 and what's interesting is the shadowing 364 00:17:10,660 --> 00:17:12,596 on the creature's face and down 365 00:17:12,620 --> 00:17:15,346 onto its torso and through its neck region. 366 00:17:15,370 --> 00:17:18,056 For primeau, the details of an alien creature 367 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,636 weren't revealed by the enhancement, they were added. 368 00:17:21,660 --> 00:17:23,476 None of that information is represented 369 00:17:23,500 --> 00:17:26,306 in the very first image that was captured. 370 00:17:26,330 --> 00:17:28,176 Information has been introduced, 371 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,056 shapes of things have been altered, 372 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,886 the perspectives have been skewed, 373 00:17:31,910 --> 00:17:33,806 tonal values have changed. 374 00:17:33,830 --> 00:17:35,476 Basically I would not consider this 375 00:17:35,500 --> 00:17:38,386 an authentic representation of the events 376 00:17:38,410 --> 00:17:40,176 because of the number of changes 377 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,846 that this picture has undergone. 378 00:17:42,870 --> 00:17:45,516 It's a logical argument, but strain believes 379 00:17:45,540 --> 00:17:48,386 the most important detail in Spencer's story, 380 00:17:48,410 --> 00:17:51,386 if true, may not be in the photograph. 381 00:17:51,410 --> 00:17:56,346 He had a compass with him that had reversed polarity 382 00:17:56,370 --> 00:18:00,176 and the only way that you can do that to a compass 383 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:05,136 is that it is exposed to a high level of magnetism. 384 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:11,096 So it makes me wonder if he was near a ufo 385 00:18:11,120 --> 00:18:14,346 and then, that's why his compass had that happen. 386 00:18:14,370 --> 00:18:18,806 And so, it leads me to believe, regardless of the photograph, 387 00:18:18,830 --> 00:18:20,830 maybe he's telling the truth. 388 00:18:24,790 --> 00:18:26,136 Our verdict, 389 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,806 we're going to go with unexplained phenomenon. 390 00:18:28,830 --> 00:18:30,056 Primeau makes a good case 391 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,386 that the enhanced photo was doctored, 392 00:18:32,410 --> 00:18:35,226 but the original can't be entirely dismissed. 393 00:18:35,250 --> 00:18:38,516 In fact, one analysis conducted by Kodak labs 394 00:18:38,540 --> 00:18:41,056 couldn't find any evidence of tampering 395 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,016 on the original photograph. 396 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,160 Clearly, there's more investigating to do. 397 00:18:49,120 --> 00:18:51,016 Nearly everyone has had to brake 398 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,226 for wildlife at one time or another. 399 00:18:53,250 --> 00:18:55,176 Nothing strange about that. 400 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,136 But the animals crossing in our next video 401 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,846 left spectators with goosebumps. 402 00:19:00,870 --> 00:19:03,516 August 16th, 2022. 403 00:19:03,540 --> 00:19:06,676 It's a beautiful day for a drive through lanzhou, China, 404 00:19:06,700 --> 00:19:08,976 but on this particular stretch of road, things 405 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,620 have come to a standstill and it's not because of traffic. 406 00:19:13,950 --> 00:19:16,426 A car has pulled to the side of the road to let a gaggle 407 00:19:16,450 --> 00:19:19,676 of geese cross, but the geese have other plans. 408 00:19:19,700 --> 00:19:23,516 Hundreds of the birds strangely circle the car, 409 00:19:23,540 --> 00:19:27,846 surrounding it in an uncanny spiral while blocking traffic. 410 00:19:27,870 --> 00:19:29,676 The sea of beaks moves about 411 00:19:29,700 --> 00:19:33,346 in a counterclockwise direction with no sign of stopping. 412 00:19:33,370 --> 00:19:36,346 When I saw this video, I thought is there a message that 413 00:19:36,370 --> 00:19:40,476 we need to be gleaning from seeing something so ominous? 414 00:19:40,500 --> 00:19:44,476 What if the earth is going through some changes 415 00:19:44,500 --> 00:19:49,016 that we don't see or sense but the animals do? 416 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,096 Brooks suggests a deeper connection 417 00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:53,726 with earth's magnetic field may cause animals 418 00:19:53,750 --> 00:19:57,056 to behave in ways that seem odd to their human neighbors. 419 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,346 Scientists believe that we are well overdue 420 00:19:59,370 --> 00:20:01,726 for a full on magnetic pole shift. 421 00:20:01,750 --> 00:20:03,636 A pole shift is when the earth's 422 00:20:03,660 --> 00:20:06,636 magnetic north and south Poles swap location. 423 00:20:06,660 --> 00:20:10,016 The magnetic field becomes jumbled but stays intact. 424 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,846 The last time this happened was nearly 800,000 years ago. 425 00:20:13,870 --> 00:20:15,346 During a pole reversal, 426 00:20:15,370 --> 00:20:19,676 it is said that the magnetic field actually weakens. 427 00:20:19,700 --> 00:20:23,346 Animals are tuned into our magnetic field 428 00:20:23,370 --> 00:20:25,056 a lot more than we are. 429 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,096 We've learned that livestock 430 00:20:27,120 --> 00:20:31,096 actually tend to line up in a north-south line 431 00:20:31,120 --> 00:20:33,056 kind of like a compass needle. 432 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,266 If we're seeing a shift, 433 00:20:35,290 --> 00:20:37,636 this strange animal behavior is apt to happen. 434 00:20:37,660 --> 00:20:40,676 I think that they are maybe more tethered 435 00:20:40,700 --> 00:20:43,306 to terra firm a than we give 'em credit for. 436 00:20:43,330 --> 00:20:45,516 Scientists believe that many animals, 437 00:20:45,540 --> 00:20:49,386 such as sharks, sea turtles, and even insects like honeybees, 438 00:20:49,410 --> 00:20:52,426 use the earth's magnetic field for navigation. 439 00:20:52,450 --> 00:20:55,346 If a switch occurred, it could cause problems in terms 440 00:20:55,370 --> 00:20:58,016 of migration, but Brooks believes there could be another 441 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:02,226 factor making these geese ambush this unsuspecting sedan. 442 00:21:02,250 --> 00:21:04,596 There's a phenomenon known as imprinting 443 00:21:04,620 --> 00:21:08,726 and imprinting is when a young animal forms an attachment 444 00:21:08,750 --> 00:21:13,346 to this protector mother figure when they're first born. 445 00:21:13,370 --> 00:21:15,556 As I looked at this, I thought to myself, 446 00:21:15,580 --> 00:21:18,266 are these geese imprinting on this car? 447 00:21:18,290 --> 00:21:19,636 In other words, 448 00:21:19,660 --> 00:21:22,136 the geese think the car is their mother. 449 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,516 Turns out animals have been imprinting 450 00:21:24,540 --> 00:21:26,806 on inanimate objects for centuries. 451 00:21:26,830 --> 00:21:29,676 In China, rice farmers have historically 452 00:21:29,700 --> 00:21:32,846 imprinted newly-hatched ducklings to a special stick 453 00:21:32,870 --> 00:21:34,846 which they then use to bring the ducks out 454 00:21:34,870 --> 00:21:37,846 to rice paddies to control the snail population. 455 00:21:37,870 --> 00:21:40,596 So with imprinting, they are sort of looking for 456 00:21:40,620 --> 00:21:43,660 this parental figure as a form of protection. 457 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,426 This is far from the first time 458 00:21:47,450 --> 00:21:49,766 we've covered weird animal behavior. 459 00:21:49,790 --> 00:21:52,806 We've seen an elephant that could supposedly talk 460 00:21:52,830 --> 00:21:56,476 and strange sheep circling in both China and the UK. 461 00:21:56,500 --> 00:21:59,136 Some of those phenomena remain unexplained. 462 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:00,476 We're hoping our experts 463 00:22:00,500 --> 00:22:03,290 will have more luck figuring this one out. 464 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,266 Wildlife biologist Stephanie manka 465 00:22:09,290 --> 00:22:10,846 isn't so sure that these geese 466 00:22:10,870 --> 00:22:13,806 are imprinting this car as a potential mother figure. 467 00:22:13,830 --> 00:22:17,136 We have a lot of geese in this situation 468 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:21,346 and they would all have to be around this car as goslings. 469 00:22:21,370 --> 00:22:23,346 There's a critical window 470 00:22:23,370 --> 00:22:25,726 for imprintation after the young are hatched. 471 00:22:25,750 --> 00:22:28,676 So it is very unlikely that this many geese 472 00:22:28,700 --> 00:22:30,926 were in contact with this car 473 00:22:30,950 --> 00:22:34,346 and happened to come across it now crossing the road. 474 00:22:34,370 --> 00:22:36,846 And as far as magnetic fields are concerned, 475 00:22:36,870 --> 00:22:39,596 manka points out that the Poles have reversed before 476 00:22:39,620 --> 00:22:41,976 with very little fallout from the animal community. 477 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,476 We are overdue to have the Poles flipped, 478 00:22:45,500 --> 00:22:48,306 but it doesn't seem to be a big concern. 479 00:22:48,330 --> 00:22:49,766 In history, there haven't been 480 00:22:49,790 --> 00:22:52,556 major changes when this has happened. 481 00:22:52,580 --> 00:22:55,766 Biologist Floyd Hayes says many people online 482 00:22:55,790 --> 00:22:58,226 were comparing this to a death spiral, 483 00:22:58,250 --> 00:23:00,926 an act commonly found in insects like ants 484 00:23:00,950 --> 00:23:03,806 where part of a group loses their orientation 485 00:23:03,830 --> 00:23:07,516 and end up walking in circles until dead from exhaustion. 486 00:23:07,540 --> 00:23:09,056 I think this is quite different 487 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,676 than the death spiral that we see in certain insects. 488 00:23:11,700 --> 00:23:14,886 Birds have larger brains than insects and they're not dumb 489 00:23:14,910 --> 00:23:17,846 enough that they're gonna walk in circles until they die. 490 00:23:17,870 --> 00:23:20,016 Ultimately, Hayes thinks we're simply seeing 491 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,886 a flummoxed gaggle temporarily following its own tail. 492 00:23:23,910 --> 00:23:26,556 I think the geese just got a little bit confused. 493 00:23:26,580 --> 00:23:27,846 They were following the leader 494 00:23:27,870 --> 00:23:30,726 and the leader was following others. 495 00:23:30,750 --> 00:23:32,676 I suspect a few minutes later, they stopped 496 00:23:32,700 --> 00:23:34,846 that behavior and walked off to the side of the road. 497 00:23:34,870 --> 00:23:37,330 I think it was just a temporary phenomenon. 498 00:23:41,620 --> 00:23:46,226 Our verdict, this is a case of mass goose confusion. 499 00:23:46,250 --> 00:23:47,926 Like the blind leading the blind, 500 00:23:47,950 --> 00:23:50,016 a couple of geese got turned around 501 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,176 and let their flocking instincts get the better of them, 502 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:57,676 leading the rest in a time consuming loop around the car. 503 00:23:57,700 --> 00:24:00,136 We're happy to report that the geese did eventually make it 504 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,660 to safety before the oncoming traffic turned them into pate. 505 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,426 Did you know that the first photograph 506 00:24:09,450 --> 00:24:11,676 was taken in the 1820s? 507 00:24:11,700 --> 00:24:13,846 Since then, humans have taken more photos 508 00:24:13,870 --> 00:24:16,676 than we could possibly count, but who took 509 00:24:16,700 --> 00:24:20,660 the first photo of a ufo, and was it the real deal? 510 00:24:22,330 --> 00:24:25,346 It's the winter season of 1870 and 1871 511 00:24:25,370 --> 00:24:27,976 on mount Washington in New Hampshire. 512 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,346 Photographers Amos cloth and Howard Kimball 513 00:24:30,370 --> 00:24:32,176 are on a meteorological expedition 514 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,580 when they unwittingly snap a photo that makes history. 515 00:24:36,540 --> 00:24:38,726 The stereo graph, or pair of photos 516 00:24:38,750 --> 00:24:41,976 taken simultaneously by a dual lens camera, 517 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,976 would have originally been viewed through a stereoscope, 518 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,846 a precursor to the view-master toy we know today. 519 00:24:48,870 --> 00:24:51,700 It appears to show a fluffy white cloud. 520 00:24:52,870 --> 00:24:54,000 But look closer. 521 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,556 Right in the center is a dark, cigar-shaped object 522 00:24:58,580 --> 00:25:00,556 that seems to be flying in the clouds. 523 00:25:00,580 --> 00:25:02,346 It doesn't have any wings 524 00:25:02,370 --> 00:25:05,346 or means of propulsion that we can see. 525 00:25:05,370 --> 00:25:06,726 What could it be? 526 00:25:06,750 --> 00:25:09,386 In 1870, there were no airplanes. 527 00:25:09,410 --> 00:25:10,886 It's clearly not a bird. 528 00:25:10,910 --> 00:25:13,636 So what could possibly be floating 529 00:25:13,660 --> 00:25:15,636 in front of the clouds like this? 530 00:25:15,660 --> 00:25:18,306 This is thought to be the first ufo photo 531 00:25:18,330 --> 00:25:21,886 ever taken but it's hardly the first sighting of its kind. 532 00:25:21,910 --> 00:25:25,596 One such incident was in 1860 in Wilmington, Delaware. 533 00:25:25,620 --> 00:25:29,266 Residents reported seeing something 200 feet long 534 00:25:29,290 --> 00:25:33,266 streaking across the sky and in 1876, 535 00:25:33,290 --> 00:25:36,806 residents of Sacramento, California reported seeing 536 00:25:36,830 --> 00:25:39,886 something that looked like an electric arc lamp propelled 537 00:25:39,910 --> 00:25:44,266 by some mysterious force crossing over them in the sky. 538 00:25:44,290 --> 00:25:45,556 At the time, 539 00:25:45,580 --> 00:25:47,136 these reports referred to the strange objects 540 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,636 as "mystery airships" and with the 20th century 541 00:25:50,660 --> 00:25:53,016 came more photos of them, like the so-called 542 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,476 sawmill ufo snapped in ward, Colorado. 543 00:25:56,500 --> 00:25:59,176 Believed to have been taken in 1929, 544 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,926 Edward klein was in ward to photograph the sawmill 545 00:26:02,950 --> 00:26:06,306 when he heard a thunderous boom overhead. 546 00:26:06,330 --> 00:26:07,846 He said that when he looked up, 547 00:26:07,870 --> 00:26:10,016 he saw what looked like a giant, 548 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,636 spherical Boulder passing over him in the sky. 549 00:26:13,660 --> 00:26:15,556 That makes at least two 550 00:26:15,580 --> 00:26:18,976 antique ufo photos still drawing eyes today. 551 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,346 The challenge with these vintage ufo photographs 552 00:26:22,370 --> 00:26:23,806 is that we don't have as much data 553 00:26:23,830 --> 00:26:26,136 about them as we do modern photographs. 554 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,266 When we look at certain old ufo photographs, 555 00:26:29,290 --> 00:26:32,200 there really is a mystery as to what it could possibly be. 556 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,676 In a criminal investigation, an open and unsolved case 557 00:26:37,700 --> 00:26:41,346 is generally considered cold after only one year. 558 00:26:41,370 --> 00:26:43,056 So have these ufo cases 559 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,676 frozen in time gone too cold to solve? 560 00:26:46,700 --> 00:26:50,040 We ask our experts to turn up the heat. 561 00:26:53,700 --> 00:26:56,516 First, astrophotographer Andrew McCarthy 562 00:26:56,540 --> 00:26:59,016 considers if the mount Washington ufo 563 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,056 could be some kind of early aircraft. 564 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,636 Today, we have aircraft flying over constantly 565 00:27:04,660 --> 00:27:08,176 and thousands of satellites in our night sky. 566 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,346 Back in the 19th century, none of that was relevant. 567 00:27:11,370 --> 00:27:13,846 Now, there were hot air balloons. 568 00:27:13,870 --> 00:27:16,266 Still, this ufo's oblong profile 569 00:27:16,290 --> 00:27:18,726 clearly doesn't match that of a hot air balloon. 570 00:27:18,750 --> 00:27:22,056 That means an early aircraft explanation is out. 571 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,846 But what about the sawmill photo? 572 00:27:24,870 --> 00:27:26,846 Now, one of the unique things about this photo 573 00:27:26,870 --> 00:27:29,846 is it doesn't actually have an eyewitness 574 00:27:29,870 --> 00:27:32,176 to go along with it, other than the photographer. 575 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,886 The workers heard a noise and felt a shudder 576 00:27:34,910 --> 00:27:36,636 but they didn't see this object. 577 00:27:36,660 --> 00:27:38,886 The photographer did allegedly 578 00:27:38,910 --> 00:27:41,676 see the object at the time he snapped the photo. 579 00:27:41,700 --> 00:27:43,676 But McCarthy questions that claim. 580 00:27:43,700 --> 00:27:46,016 He suspects there may be something else at play here. 581 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,016 What I think we're looking at here is actually a drop 582 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,120 of moisture getting sandwiched in between these negatives. 583 00:27:53,120 --> 00:27:55,766 There's old photos like this just filled with artifacts 584 00:27:55,790 --> 00:27:58,226 and they probably all happened in the dark room 585 00:27:58,250 --> 00:28:00,750 when the film negatives were being processed. 586 00:28:01,950 --> 00:28:04,056 But it's unlikely that a film artifact 587 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,636 could explain away the mount Washington ufo 588 00:28:06,660 --> 00:28:09,266 since it appears in both of the images. 589 00:28:09,290 --> 00:28:10,926 But film producer Sam sherman, 590 00:28:10,950 --> 00:28:13,516 who owns the physical stereo graph, says 591 00:28:13,540 --> 00:28:17,266 it's that stereoscopic view that unlocks the whole story. 592 00:28:17,290 --> 00:28:19,846 Everybody on the Internet who claims 593 00:28:19,870 --> 00:28:24,226 that this is an object flying over mount Washington, 594 00:28:24,250 --> 00:28:27,766 it's because they're looking at one eye view 595 00:28:27,790 --> 00:28:29,516 of the stereo card. 596 00:28:29,540 --> 00:28:32,846 It looks like it could be flying over the snow-capped 597 00:28:32,870 --> 00:28:35,516 mountain, but then when you see it in stereo, 598 00:28:35,540 --> 00:28:37,846 with your two eyes seeing the 3D, 599 00:28:37,870 --> 00:28:40,096 you see it's embedded in the snow. 600 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,346 Stereoscopy works just like our eyes, 601 00:28:42,370 --> 00:28:44,516 displaying a pair of two-dimensional images 602 00:28:44,540 --> 00:28:47,266 from slightly different angles that, when combined, 603 00:28:47,290 --> 00:28:50,346 create a single three-dimensional image. 604 00:28:50,370 --> 00:28:53,766 And since the background immediately surrounding the ufo 605 00:28:53,790 --> 00:28:56,176 doesn't shift from the left image to the right, 606 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,766 that means this ufo isn't flying at all. 607 00:28:59,790 --> 00:29:01,806 When they list in their catalog 608 00:29:01,830 --> 00:29:03,846 what they've taken a photograph of, 609 00:29:03,870 --> 00:29:06,016 they call it "frost architecture." 610 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,516 In other words, a photo of a snowbank 611 00:29:08,540 --> 00:29:12,176 on the mountaintop that's feet rather than miles away, 612 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,176 not an image of a faraway cloud in the sky. 613 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,266 Hoffman says that when it came to photographing 614 00:29:17,290 --> 00:29:20,306 something as featureless as snow back in the day, 615 00:29:20,330 --> 00:29:24,016 a photographer would often add an object to indicate scale. 616 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,386 So what's happened is that they probably 617 00:29:26,410 --> 00:29:31,176 have set their ruler over there on that frost architecture 618 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,056 to give a perspective in terms of 619 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,160 how big this thing is that they're looking at. 620 00:29:39,910 --> 00:29:42,766 Our verdict, the eyes have it. 621 00:29:42,790 --> 00:29:45,476 Once you understand stereoscopy, 622 00:29:45,500 --> 00:29:49,386 it is easy to identify this as a ruler in the snow. 623 00:29:49,410 --> 00:29:51,636 Of course, ufos could have been 624 00:29:51,660 --> 00:29:54,226 visiting earth back in the 19th century, 625 00:29:54,250 --> 00:29:58,040 but we can say for sure they didn't photo-bomb this shot. 626 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,226 Trucking is a unique way to see the country, 627 00:30:04,250 --> 00:30:05,976 if you can put up with the long hours 628 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,306 on the road and if you know your cb lingo. 629 00:30:09,330 --> 00:30:11,846 However, the trucker in our next story 630 00:30:11,870 --> 00:30:15,346 may have seen or heard more than he bargained for. 631 00:30:15,370 --> 00:30:16,676 Breaker breaker one-nine, 632 00:30:16,700 --> 00:30:18,426

674 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,660 Let's check in with our experts. 675 00:32:29,500 --> 00:32:31,886 First, forensic audio analyst Rob maher 676 00:32:31,910 --> 00:32:34,386 rules out some potential local culprits. 677 00:32:34,410 --> 00:32:37,476 Here's a recording of an elk sound 678 00:32:37,500 --> 00:32:40,056 and we can see it's actually a higher frequency 679 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,370 than we observe in the howl. 680 00:32:50,700 --> 00:32:53,426 A wolf sound has the duration similar 681 00:32:53,450 --> 00:32:57,080 to what was recorded in the truck stop recording. 682 00:33:08,290 --> 00:33:10,886 But the wolf howl is very distinctive 683 00:33:10,910 --> 00:33:13,766 and does not have the same rising and falling 684 00:33:13,790 --> 00:33:17,266 characteristic that are present in the truck stop recording. 685 00:33:17,290 --> 00:33:19,596 So could this be big foot?

756 00:37:10,950 --> 00:37:13,886 Our first voyager probes included time capsules 757 00:37:13,910 --> 00:37:16,926 and it introduced prospective extraterrestrials 758 00:37:16,950 --> 00:37:18,306 to our civilization. 759 00:37:18,330 --> 00:37:20,636 Maybe this question Mark is their response. 760 00:37:20,660 --> 00:37:23,676 Was this perhaps put there to catch our attention? 761 00:37:23,700 --> 00:37:25,806 While others see the possibility 762 00:37:25,830 --> 00:37:28,226 we're witnessing one of the most mysterious 763 00:37:28,250 --> 00:37:31,056 phenomena in the universe, black holes. 764 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,676 Maybe it's literally pulling the swirl 765 00:37:33,700 --> 00:37:37,226 of that galaxy into what looks like now a question Mark 766 00:37:37,250 --> 00:37:40,306 being sucked into this super massive black hole. 767 00:37:40,330 --> 00:37:42,386 This is something that's really unknown 768 00:37:42,410 --> 00:37:44,830 and deserves further investigation. 769 00:37:48,370 --> 00:37:50,886 According to the center for astrophysics, 770 00:37:50,910 --> 00:37:54,096 there could be as many as 100 million black holes 771 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,016 in our milky way galaxy alone. 772 00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:58,846 Could that be what we have here, 773 00:37:58,870 --> 00:38:01,846 or is there some sort of advanced intelligence involved? 774 00:38:01,870 --> 00:38:04,870 Our experts are ready with some answers. 775 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:13,096 At the center of almost every galaxy that we've ever seen, 776 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,516 we see a black hole. 777 00:38:15,540 --> 00:38:19,016 But this does not look like what a typical black hole is. 778 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,886 We have images from the event horizon telescope 779 00:38:22,910 --> 00:38:26,056 of the black hole at the center of the milky way 780 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:31,266 and of other black holes, and you see this black circle 781 00:38:31,290 --> 00:38:34,516 or ellipse with an orange-ish light around 782 00:38:34,540 --> 00:38:38,306 that represents the light, the matter, 783 00:38:38,330 --> 00:38:41,056 the dust and gas that's either falling 784 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:45,136 into the black hole or trapped in eternal orbit of it, 785 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,056 and you don't see this actually. 786 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:51,226 A super massive black hole cannot be question Mark-shaped. 787 00:38:51,250 --> 00:38:55,136 It can only be spherical, elliptical, 788 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,176 kind of a flat elliptical shape 789 00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:00,096 if it's rotating with a great degree of speed. 790 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,176 Okay then, could it actually 791 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,766 be a message from an alien civilization? 792 00:39:04,790 --> 00:39:07,176 Dr. Szydagis says the answer to that question 793 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,766 is all about time and the speed of light. 794 00:39:09,790 --> 00:39:14,886 We are looking at it as it was billions of years ago, 795 00:39:14,910 --> 00:39:18,176 not as it looks like "now," 796 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:21,846 and so not only did humanity not exist, 797 00:39:21,870 --> 00:39:26,596 but any signal from earth has not been able 798 00:39:26,620 --> 00:39:29,726 to reach these vast distances yet. 799 00:39:29,750 --> 00:39:31,886 But why does it look like a question Mark? 800 00:39:31,910 --> 00:39:34,556 Professor kaku says in order to solve the mystery, 801 00:39:34,580 --> 00:39:36,846 you need to think in three dimensions. 802 00:39:36,870 --> 00:39:39,176 One thing about a two-dimensional photograph 803 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:41,556 is you don't know how distances are. 804 00:39:41,580 --> 00:39:44,176 If you could somehow leave the earth 805 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,636 and look at this from a different angle, 806 00:39:46,660 --> 00:39:50,846 perhaps the question Mark would fall apart as a consequence. 807 00:39:50,870 --> 00:39:54,676 You would see distinct features unrelated to each other. 808 00:39:54,700 --> 00:39:56,226 As to what those features are, 809 00:39:56,250 --> 00:39:58,596 both kaku and szydagis agree. 810 00:39:58,620 --> 00:40:00,386 The question Mark is probably 811 00:40:00,410 --> 00:40:02,976 the collision of two galaxies 812 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,726 and when you put them together from this angle, 813 00:40:05,750 --> 00:40:07,596 it looks like a question Mark. 814 00:40:07,620 --> 00:40:10,766 The twisting top part would be the first galaxy 815 00:40:10,790 --> 00:40:13,926 and that dot on the bottom, possibly the second. 816 00:40:13,950 --> 00:40:16,516 I'm frankly surprised we haven't found 817 00:40:16,540 --> 00:40:20,636 more question marks because the universe is very big. 818 00:40:20,660 --> 00:40:22,516 If we look hard enough, 819 00:40:22,540 --> 00:40:26,370 we are going to find every kind of punctuation Mark. 820 00:40:31,290 --> 00:40:34,346 Our verdict, merging galaxies. 821 00:40:34,370 --> 00:40:37,846 Sad to say, this time, it's no alien message. 822 00:40:37,870 --> 00:40:40,426 But it is fascinating how much we can learn 823 00:40:40,450 --> 00:40:42,266 about the universe from a fraction 824 00:40:42,290 --> 00:40:44,806 of a fraction of a single image. 825 00:40:44,830 --> 00:40:47,636 And the good news is that there will be many more to come. 826 00:40:47,660 --> 00:40:50,386 The telescope is expected to remain operational 827 00:40:50,410 --> 00:40:53,676 up there for at least 20 years. 828 00:40:53,700 --> 00:40:55,516 And that's our show for tonight. 829 00:40:55,540 --> 00:40:58,016 As always, thank you so much for watching 830 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:01,200 and remember to keep those cameras rolling. 830 00:41:02,305 --> 00:42:02,508 Watch Online Movies and Series for FREE www.osdb.link/lm
