The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch

- I'm at altitude. - We spent the better.

Part of the day running these magnetometry and lidar surveys.

Here is the magnetic data of the homestead two.

- Whoa. - Here's the triangle.

Look at that!

I feel like we have to dig.

To get to the bottom of skinwalker ranch.

Hey, guys. This thing's hopping all over the place.

Magnetic north has been shifted.

It's pointing toward where they're drilling.

The drill's having some kind of effect.

On the magnetic field of the ranch.

- Look at that. - That is some dark stuff.

I don't know what to make of that.

I got the data back from the analysis.

On that interesting black stuff.

- Take a look. - That's all the stuff.

You would need to put together modern-day electronics.

There is a ranch in northern utah.

It is considered the epicenter.

Of the strangest and most disturbing phenomena on earth

Animal mutilations, Bizarre ufo sightings.

And unusual energies that have proven harmful to humans.

For 20 years, the federal government.

Tried to find answers and failed.

Now a new team of dedicated scientists,

Researchers and experts has taken over.

They are determined to solve the mystery and reveal...

The secret of skinwalker ranch.

All right, we got stuff crammed up in here.

Well, I guess, we set up over close to the doorway.

Thomas, why don't you go ahead and,

Go in there to where the wellhead is.

And, get a clean spot.

- And hook the wire to it. - Okay.

After more than two months of new investigations.

On skinwalker ranch,

We're finally starting to make possible connections.

That might explain some of the bizarre phenomena.

That keep happening here.

Look at that.

The highly conductive black material.

We obtained last week.

About 100 feet below the triangle area.

Where we've also seen a bunch of weird things, including ufos,

Was located right where a recent magnetometry survey.

Revealed a huge anomaly.

Well, that same survey showed another, similar feature.

Right here beneath homestead two.

We want to know if there could be some kind of connection.

Between the high strangeness we've seen.

At both of these sites.

So, erik and I have devised an experiment.

To actually measure the conductivity,

Where we're going to use the well pipe.

And a conductor grounding rod,

Separated by about 50 or 60 feet,

And we're gonna connect those to a wire.

Through a multimeter that will measure voltage and current,

And then that to a 12-volt car battery.

Now, the key here is that the circuit is open.

The only thing connecting them is dirt.

So, we've got that end connected to the ground wire.

And that end is connected to the well.

So, if the dirt is highly conductive,

Then current should flow out of the battery,

Through our measuring device, through the wire,

Through the copper rod, through the dirt,

Up through the well, back through the wire.

And back to the battery.

If that's the case, that will tell us.

How conductive the dirt is.

If we do measure a lot of conductivity.

In the soil out here, do you think that would explain.

Some of the crazy feelings people have,

Some of the instrumentation going haywire, stuff like that?

Maybe.

But here's the thing that's missing The battery.

Right.

We'd have to figure out where the battery's coming from.

Yeah, we don't know what would energize that phenomenon.

There's still a power source somewhere.

That we haven't figured out, but we're hoping this will.

Help us maybe get to that.

I've wondered for a long time.

Whether there might be some kind of underground energy source.

Some people have expressed the belief that aliens.

Are somehow involved,

And we may be on to why a conjectured alien civilization.

Or some ancient earth civilization.

May have used the area as a power storage.

- Are we ready to do this? - I'd say we are.

Is that other end hooked up? All right, erik. Yep.

- Hook it up. - All right, let's go.

There... look at that. Wow, significant. Wow.

- That's almost a third of an amp. - I am...

- Wow. - I was not expecting that.

- I was expecting it to be... - No.

Barely one little digit move.

0.3 amps is flowing through

50, 60 feet of soil.

Here underneath us at skinwalker ranch at homestead two.

I've never seen anything like that.

There should be nothing. It should be billionths,

Maybe even trillionths of an amp.

It's like we have a-a transmission line,

Like a power line, running underground,

But everywhere underground.

And so, what does that mean?

It means if there's a power source or something.

Stimulates it, and electrical current is flowing.

All everywhere under the ground,

And anywhere electric current flows,

A magnetic field is created.

All right.

Seeing how big that current is.

Makes me think I might be able to power a flashlight off of it.

- Yeah. That's a great idea. - You have one?

So, I've got one back here in the,

- In the, pelican case. - Nice.

It should be pretty easy to test this out.

So, I want to... What I want to do is...

So, what we're doing...

That was interesting.

- So that's connected directly to... - Yeah.

This just beeped because you just disconnected the power.

- It was this. - Wait, what?

- That just went off? - Yeah, just as.

You disconnected that, this-this...

It set off the lightning meter.

- Yeah, now, that's interesting. - That is very interesting.

When we took the battery out of the circuit,

The lightning detector would go off.

I don't think I have a good understanding.

Of why that happened.

Do it again.

Wow.

- That is... - You're conducted...

You're conducting energy up through the ground.

That's trigg... that somehow is triggering that thing.

- What? - Wh... that's repeatable. Look at that.

For erik's lightning detector to go off during this experiment.

Not only verified that the ground here.

At homestead two is strangely conductive.

Just like the triangle area, but also,

That we may have stimulated some kind of phenomena,

Or as thomas winterton always says,

A "response" from the ranch.

There's enough current flowing.

Through the ground off of a 12-volt battery.

To set the lightning detector off?

- That's right. - This is crazy.

I'll tell you what we're seeing here is a phenomena.

That I don't think a lot of people have a good grasp on.

I think this whole area is acting like a power supply,

And it's storing up power,

And then we're suddenly letting it go.

When we disconnect it from the car battery.

And as it's draining out quickly...

It looks like a lightning bolt.

It's like an energy reservoir here.

Where was the power coming from that went into the earth.

That created that lightning discharge.

That made erik's meter go off?

I have no idea about that.

But maybe the same conductive material.

We found beneath the triangle area.

Is also here under homestead two.

And if so, maybe this is leading us down a path.

On how to find the answer.

- I want to see if the flashlight works. - Well, I...

- Well, hook it up. - I have a feeling it's gonna work.

I... with that much energy, we're still getting.

More than a quarter of an amp.

Well, let's see what we get when we hook this up.

Well, it hardly seems possible.

We've got this giant resistor, or whatever the ground is,

Of 50-something feet.

That, that we're running electricity through.

We're using the earth as part of our electrical circuit grid.

I was really surprised to see.

How much current can actually flow through the ground here.

That's pretty crazy, and that shows us that this soil.

Really is highly conductive.

And can even possibly store energy.

Is it possible there could be a power source somewhere.

Under the ranch or above the ranch somehow connecting?

Maybe that's why skinwalker ranch is the area.

Of so many ufo sightings and so many of these events.

Maybe.

Thomas's question about ufo phenomena seemed.

A lot less far-fetched to me today.

Than when I first came to the ranch last year.

I don't know if the cause of these energy spikes.

Is from something below the ground.

Or from something high above like we've also seen.

At the triangle area, so I thought what we needed next.

Was to conduct an even more aggressive experiment.

We just saw when we put current into the ground.

That we're seeing phenomena, right?
