03x04 - Chip Off the Orb Block

[bunniefuu]

Tonight on "beyond skin walker ranch."

The power of two.

Some of the results
that we got here last time

were just off the charts.

Who knows what's going to happen
now that we've got Emily here?

Ok, daddy, here we go.

Directly overhead.

We've got nothing between
here and the Atlantic ocean.

Nothing at all? Nope.

This guy's right above us, man.

This is a privileged frequency zone.

And we are in the middle
of the Florida everglades.

Right.

Why would that happen?

Whoa.

What was that?

Exactly.

What was that?

We didn't have our biggest

breakthrough until after we started

reviewing some of our footage.

Well, I think we have a bona fide

unidentified aerial phenomena event.

For years, scientists have

been working to reveal the
secrets of skin walker ranch.

But is it possible that the clues

to unlock the mystery are located

beyond the borders of this
hub of high strangeness?

Wow.

Now, an ex-CIA agent
and a veteran journalist

have been recruited
by the skin walker team

to go on a high stakes
mission across america.

Look at all this activity that's happening.

That's unbelievable.

That is right over our heads.

That's it. That's it right there.

The goal... uncover evidence that

may finally expose the truth.

How is this happening?

Now it's going to get interesting.

Look, it's moving!

Look at that.

This is just the beginning.

All right, let's do it.

Hold on just 1 second.

I'm just going to strap you.

You okay?

Awesome.

We've got all of our stuff set up outside.

Let's do it.

This is exciting, guys.

We've got you both hooked up.

Here we go.

The team is working with
neuroscientist Dr. James

Thompson, continuing their research

on experiencer Chris bledsoe.

Last year, Andy and Paul
traveled to north Carolina

to meet Chris bledsoe, who claims

to have had an extraterrestrial encounter

in 2007 on the cape fear river.

This fire was swirling,
and these little flames

were sh**ting off of it.

I never thought about ufos, but I knew

it wasn't anything that we had.

Chris believes that afterwards, he

formed a lasting connection
with uap phenomena.

I'm broadcasting my
intentions in every direction,

and I'm asking them to
come this time right now.

Here it comes.

You see it coming?

Wow.

Yeah.

What the hell.

I don't know what this is.

Last week, Andy and Paul brought Chris

to the world-renowned Monroe
institute, a research center

focused on the study
of human consciousness

to do controlled brainwave tests.

With the help of Dr. Thompson, they

first studied Chris with
Paul as a control subject

and found their brains
seemed to react differently

to orbs that appeared.

Paul's a little more cognitive.

Now he's thinking about
things, whereas Chris,

Chris's brainwaves are larger and slower.

Next, they isolated Chris

in a completely sealed off copper

room that blocked the
energy of the outside world

to see if he'd have brainwave
interactions with orb phenomena.

And he did.

Andy, he's gesturing.

Paul, I see an orb right
here, flying overhead.

Son of a.

That's unbelievable.

Now, they're capping off
the bledsoe brain experiment

by bringing in a new test
subject, Chris's daughter,

Emily, who claims to
have a similar relationship

with the phenomenon despite
not having been at her father's

original reported encounter.

I was 10 years old when the cape

fear river incident happened.

And I just remember
believing my dad 100%

very soon after the phenomenon
started showing around me.

And it hasn't stopped since.

I can't say for sure
why it is attached to me,

but my intuition tells me that
my openness and connection

with my dad and his experiences made

me open to it at such a young
age that I was awakened to it.

This is also me.

This is also my story.

By bringing Emily to the Monroe institute

and testing her brain to
see if her claims are true,

the team also hopes to learn more about

how the phenomenon
relates to people close to Chris.

So not only are we going
to be looking at Chris

and using Chris as our
subject, we have Emily

bledsoe here with us as well.

And so what we're
able to do now is to say,

is there a difference
between how Chris perceives

his interactions with
the orbs and not only

how he perceives them, but how he

reacts to them neurologically?

And does Emily
represent a similar pattern?

Because she has these
experiences as well.

Is this something that
Emily, Chris's daughter,

has learned from
him, inherited from him,

some combination of the two?

And the way we're going
to get to the bottom of that

is by observing their
brains together in real time

as they track the skies for us.

This is potentially really groundbreaking.

All right, daddy, let's do it.

The team will be using an eeg to test

Chris and Emily's brains.

An eeg, or electroencephalogram,
uses electrodes on the scalp

to detect and record location, frequency,

and strength of electric
signals sent to different areas

of the brain.

This will allow them to see
how Chris and Emily's brains

react when encountering
the phenomenon.

So it'll be really interesting to us

any immediate analysis that you can do,

when you see them engaging.

Yeah.

Or if you guys let me know.

There's one I'll focus here.

You guys can focus up there.

And I'll be watching for shifts.

Beautiful.

Thank you, sir.

I'm so excited.

I see stars coming out.

Just start tracking Chris here.

It's like they're both
pretty active scanning.

They both got one.

Yep.

I see it straight above us.

Anything on the satellite tracker?

We've got nothing between
here and in the Atlantic ocean.

No planes.

I'm not seeing anything on here.

Nothing at all?

This guy's right above us, man.

Andy, frontal lobe Alpha.

Emily.

Wow.

So we had a really solid orb
moving towards the direction

of the moon at the same time.

Emily's frontal Alpha.

So a reduction in activity.

When Alpha goes on, it's because
everything's more idle, right.

More meditative.

Interesting.

During the previous tests on Chris,

when orbs appeared, the eeg
recorded Alpha brainwaves that

showed him going into the flow state,

similar to what top athletes experience

when performing at a
high level without thinking.

To achieve this, they hyper
focus inward, shutting out

all outside distractions, similar to what

someone does who is
highly trained in meditation.

Chris's untrained ability
to instantaneously switch

to this state is incredibly unique.

So we're seeing correlation
between Alpha wave

patterns in both Chris
and Emily with the presence

of the phenomenon. That's right.

How does that track
with our initial results

with Chris?

Similar.

So Chris would go into
those meditative states,

and in the presence of
orbs, he would almost

go meditative internalization.

And we're seeing the
same thing with Emily.

With Emily.

Yeah.

Daddy, it's just getting started.

Yeah, I love it.

And that was a great sign
that just appeared there.

I know. I know.

I've got two hands up, doc.

Now, is this two crossing?

Yeah. Yeah, I see it.

Is that faa?

No, no.

Hey, doc, did you see anything here?

That's interesting.

There was a high
amplitude Alpha occurring.

For the second time,
Emily and Chris's brains

have both transitioned into the
uniquely focus flow state when

orbs are present,
seeming to validate Emily's

claims that she
experiences the phenomenon

just like her father does.

What's immediately interesting to me

is the amount of activity
we're getting tonight when

we have Emily with her dad.

Multiple sightings.

We're getting very
clear results on the eegs.

Yeah.

Emily really is lighting up in
that internalized Alpha state.

It begs that question whether or not

this is a genetic, this
is an environmental,

this is an experiential
sort of development.

Does she have this ability?

Does she have this pattern,
this wave pattern in her brain

because she grew up
with Chris or because she's

genetically related to Chris?

Or is it something
that potentially anybody

could learn?

Or because the phenomenon
chose to stay with Emily?

Right.

- Let's call them over.
- Ok.

- You got it.
- All right.

With enough data collected,

the team regroups to
review their initial findings

with Dr. Thompson.

Hey, guys.

What's interesting here is
that so far, in just looking

at the raw data, you're more, let's

call it, reactive, but in a reactive, very

calm, state internalized.

And Emily shows the
pattern more similar to you.

Wow.

Cool.

Yeah.

And this is just an
observational in the moment,

right.

I mean, as you point out,
there's going to be more born

out as we do the post analysis.

Yeah.

I mean, this is tip of the iceberg.

The real information
is below the surface.

What are your feelings,

Emily, as you hear
some of these results?

It's wild.

It's validating.

With everything we've been
through and experienced

together, it only makes sense.

This is huge for us.

So thank you. Thank you.

All right.

Mission accomplished.

- Absolutely.
- All right.

Check.

Andy and Paul are
continuing their investigation

with uap experiencer Chris
bledsoe and his daughter Emily

in a remote, unpopulated, dark sky

area in the Florida everglades.

They want to further test Emily's

seemingly unique relationship
with the phenomenon.

They've also brought in beyond
skin walker veteran Steve priola,

an ex cinematographer
who's developed a unique way

to film orbs in the night sky.

Hey, Steve.

Gentlemen.

So the thing about this camera is

you have to be at the
right place at the right time.

And with Chris here, the
odds are pretty good that we're

going to see something.

So that's why we're
bringing this to the table.

And I think it's going to work out great.

That's the idea.

We've got all the pieces in place.

Just got to wait for
nightfall, which won't be long.

Right.

In addition to monitoring Chris and Emily

in perfect conditions to
document potential orb

sightings, the team wants to test a claim

that the phenomenon appears
to be amplified when both of them

are together.

When dad and I are
together looking up at the sky,

we become very in sync.

I've had some pretty profound
things happen on my own,

but it seems more frequent
when we're together.

It magnifies the activity,
the amount of activity.

Not all the time, but 95% of the time.

- I'm excited.
- Yeah.

I think it's going to be interesting.

For the first time, Andy and Paul

have trekked their monitoring tools

into the swamp to detect energies

present during any interaction
Chris and Emily have with orbs,

including their spectrum
analyzer, which records

earth-to-space and
space-to-earth communication.

So I'm going to be monitoring

a number of different
tools from this space station

here while we're relying on you guys

to point us in the direction
of any activity that you see.

But we have multiple ways
of looking at what's happening

in the radio spectrum.

We have a way of ruling
out aircraft with our faa tracker

and ruling out satellites
with our satellite tracker here.

And then we have ufodaps
watching the sky constantly,

our AI-powered eyes in
the sky that you remember

from the Monroe institute.

Very thorough.

We're trying to replicate
all the same conditions

to just make sure that
we reduce the variables.

The power of two.

Who knows what's going to happen

now that we've got Emily here?

Who knows?

All right.

Well, it's getting dark.

Yeah.

Well, I'm going to move
myself out just the right time.

Come on.

Yeah.

So it's time right now.

Yeah.

Requesting in every direction.

Just reaching out to that part
of the sky here and above us.

And after that, I move
to the ground here.

Let me scroll through the spectrum

just so we can get a
sense of baseline here.

Ok.

I think we'll get one in the woods.

I think we're going to get him too.

It's super quiet.

Yeah.

Flash up there.

Overhead?

Overhead, yeah.

I mean, it's gone now.

It was very quick.

Paul. Yes, sir.

We had something interesting

happen in the radio
spectrum, just as Emily

pointed out what she just saw.

Yeah.

Come take a look at this.

This just came to life.

Wow.

And this is exactly what

Erik talks about when he talks about

see how the peak keeps moving?

Yeah.

So this was a quiet spectrum
until Emily called out whatever

what she saw in the sky.

Look at that.

The way that peak is
sort of just oscillating

back and forth, right?

So at 1.692 gigahertz,
just under 1.7 gigahertz.

The 1.6 to 1.8 gigahertz range

is reserved for earth-to-space and

space-to-earth communication.

Strange.

I don't think we've ever
seen anything just like that.

No.

Straight up.

It's very faint.

You see it, dad?

Look at that.

And then it disappeared.

And look what they did.

She connected arms with him.

They definitely know we're here.

I was just a little greedy.

There certainly seems

to be some interesting activity
in the radio spectrum for sure.

A lot of weird little pulses
between 1.69 and 1.7.

Hey, Andy.

What if we try to find
the source of that signal?

Yeah.

Let's see if we can.

You got the log periodic right here.

With the spectrum
analyzer detecting a signal

in the 1.6 to 1.7 gigahertz
range, which is being sent

from earth to space or space to earth,

the team will now use
their log periodic antenna.

By rotating this directional
antenna 360 degrees,

it can isolate and hone
in on the exact direction

where the radio signal
is transmitting from.

- All right, man.
- All right.

Ready when you are.

Start swinging through.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Backtrack for me.

Stop right there.

So there are changes.

I want you to watch
for changes in intensity,

and then look at where the antenna is

focused during those changes.

All right.

So expect the pattern to stay the same.

But watch the change in energy.

Intense for a spike.

All right.

Here we go, counterclockwise.

Tell you what, Andy, right about here,

we've got a bit of a drop off.

That's exactly what I thought I saw, too.

The pattern is still there,
but the intensity is less.

Go back a little bit.

Yep.

Yep.

There it is.

Yeah.

So I wanted you to see that
without me saying anything.

Yeah, for sure.

It's definitely higher now.

So we see this consistent
pattern of energy.

Right.

And we see this level of intensity,

these high peaks when
the directional antenna

is focused in their direction.

And it really drops off at 180
when we turn it away from them.

Yeah.

Exactly right.

Why would that happen?

I don't know, man.

I mean, it implies that something

is transmitting at them.

Right.

But for some reason, when
we turn the back of this antenna

towards them, when we fall
into the shadow of the antenna,

we see the energy drop.

Or shadow of the receiver.

Yes.

There, the real antenna.

We're just picking up
whatever it is that they're

that's what it seems like.

That they're receiving.

Whoa.

You want to head north.

Just past the big Dipper.

Andy and Paul are with
Chris bledsoe and his daughter

Emily, along with
investigator Steve priola

in the Florida everglades,
documenting orb activity.

One just appeared right
here and is headed north.

They're the real antenna.

We're just picking up whatever
it is that they're receiving.

After zeroing in on 1.69
gigahertz on the radio

spectrum, the signal seems to be
centered around Chris and Emily

and intensifying when they
connect to the phenomenon.

Somehow, there is a directed
energy that we're seeing

that could be coming at them.

And then once it hits them, it disperses.

And that's what this
antenna is picking up.

This is earth-to-space,
space-to-earth communication.

This is not something
anybody can transmit on.

And we are in the middle
of the Florida everglades.

Right.

As soon as they dialed in,
that seems to have picked up.

You want to head north?

There it goes.

Two in the trees ahead of us right now.

A red and a bluish white.

What are you seeing, Chris?

Right here.

Or right in there.

It keeps appearing flash blue, then.

I'm seeing it three times already.

There it goes.

There's another one.

That was two at that moment.

There's... there's still... it's still

it's still right there to the
left of that tree, in the fork.

Thank you.

One of the things

that Paul and I discovered
from the command post

while you all were focused on the woods

is that we saw some sort
of unique signature, a radio

signature that seemed
to be focused on where

you were localized to you.

And not only that, it's
in a frequency bandwidth

where there should be no activity at all.

We were at 1.692 gigahertz,
which is a frequency zone

that's reserved for us federal government

use only and for earth-to-space
and space-to-earth

communication.

Wow.

So almost like there's a
frequency from earth to space

somehow connected to us.

That's where we're landing
as well, that somehow there's

energy that's tied to your being
together, your being connected,

your being connected to the
phenomenon at the same time.

I don't know what it is, but what

I do know is it doesn't happen
that way for other people.

It shouldn't be happening
at all to anybody.

There's really no sort of mechanism

that we understand that
would cause that to happen.

So it's almost like the phenomenon

uses that frequency to
communicate somehow,

and we somehow...
connect to it somehow, yeah.

That's as good a hypothesis
as we've got right now.

It seems like a literal switch that

flips in your head in the flow
state, in both of your brains

when the phenomenon presents itself.

I'd be really curious to
see all the results once Dr.

Thompson has gotten
through all that data

of what we collected at Monroe.

I'd like to add something
to what I saw tonight.

Yeah, what do you
got? Yeah c'mon in man.

So amongst all the flashes and things

that I was able to focus on, I
saw two flashes right above us.

I saw one come maybe from,
like, about here to about 5 feet up,

a white flash.

And I thought, maybe
that was from a light.

And then I saw another
one go right over the top

- of one of our other cameramen.
- Wow.

And he saw it, too.

They were right above us within 5 feet.

Well, we've got a lot of data.

Yeah, I mean, this was a
fantastically successful night.

Yeah.

Let's pack up.

Let's dry our feet and
start reviewing the data.

Yeah, let's do it.

Sounds good.

The next day, Andy, Paul,
and the bledsoes review

footage from last night's
experiment with Steve priola

of strange phenomena
that he captured using

his unique filming process.

What an awesome night.

I did not have a radio
frequency response

on my bledsoe bingo card.

Not at all.

Well, you have to remember
that the skin walker ranch

team has been chasing
these privileged frequencies

across skin walker
ranch, always assuming

that it had something to
do with the physical location.

But what you two have done
now is change the question.

The question is not
why is this radio activity

happening at a certain place.

Right.

It is, why is this radio activity happening

with a certain phenomenon?

And now anywhere that
phenomenon goes, potentially,

that frequency might be there, too.

So, Steve, were you able to
process any of this time lapse

or any of your other camera equipment

for this night's investigation?

So this is the time
lapse from that evening.

And there are a couple of moments that I

really I want to pick out.

So the first one is...
notice this craft right here.

Whoa.

What was that?

- Exactly.
- What was that?

What was that?

Andy, Paul, and the bledsoes

are reviewing footage
of last night's experiment

with investigator and
cinematographer Steve priola,

and he's just shown them what seems

to be an unidentified aerial phenomenon.

That was awesome.

Can you go back and... yes.

Yeah.

See it doing a wag?

Yeah.

That's a telltale sign
that it's not an aircraft.

It's not a satellite.

It eliminates all man-made objects.

It moves in that trajectory.

What on earth could that have been?

That pattern of movement
just makes no sense at all.

Look at the pattern of light, too.

Go back and play it at regular speed.

And we can watch other
things move through the frame

relative to it.

Ok, here it comes.

Ok.

I mean, the other planes
are moving much faster.

Whatever that is, it's not moving

the same rate as anything else.

That fits all the definitions

of what Erik and Travis
want us looking for when

we are on these investigations.

Change in direction, change in speed.

It does not fit the
normal behavioral profile

of an aircraft or a satellite.

That is unique.

That's not an insect.

That's not any kind of
natural phenomenon.

That's not any kind of natural animal.

That thing sort of breaks the mold.

That's a great catch, Steve.

Thank you.

So on my other time
lapses, I picked something up

that's very interesting, which
was a little bit mysterious

because it was a video clip.

And it was only one frame in it.

This is what I saw.

This is one frame?

One frame.

So when I zoom in here, and
I kind look at the pattern of it,

but the most interesting thing to me

is what's happening right here.

Absolutely.

So it's coming from the ground up.

It either came from
there or entered there.

But you can see that the light, there's

more than one light here.

They crisscross right at this moment.

And I will say that this activity,

this is multiple pieces of light
coming from different sources.

What's the orientation here?

Like, where are the people?

We're all looking this way.

So this is the camera looking in
the complete opposite direction

where we were all looking.

So this is in a headlamp.

This isn't a flashlight.

This isn't a light source from any of us.

This is something completely
outside of our light sources

at all.

There is a phenomenon that is potentially

entering the ground or
emerging from the ground

within proximity of our
two primary focal points

for this investigation.

It takes away coincidence.

What explains that, if not
some sort of correlation

with the subjects of the experiment itself.

Right.

And here's the thing.

This was taken at 6:50, which
was a half an hour after sunset.

You can see it's pretty bright.



That's about the time
you called it, dad, I think.

Yeah.

All that activity happened
right around that time.

Stand by one second, folks, because I

want to check something.

Am I correct in saying that 6:50 pm is

when we had our first sighting?

So what I'm trying to check for right now

is when the first sighting happened.

And I want to know when
the first sighting happened,

because the first sighting
correlated with the change

in the radio spectrum poll.

- That's right.
- My gosh.

That's why we bring so
many instruments, right?

Point them all is

so our production team just confirmed

that Emily's first sighting of
the night happened at 6:51.

You captured this at 6:50 pm.

The lights, the 1.6 gigahertz frequency,

and your first sighting of the orbs

all correlate within the same minute.

Right.

That's incredible.

Yeah.

It's too tight to be coincidental.

Definitely.

The phenomenon's existence in my life,

it actually feels like a
pretty large responsibility.

I take it very humbly and very gratefully.

I do feel so strongly because, like I said,

when you are encountering
truth to this level,

you can't explain it.

And it is my responsibility, just like it's

my dad's and my family's
to share with the world

that we're not alone.

This is just amazing, Steve.

I am flabbergasted by this catch.

The level of activity is really interesting

when you consider the fact that
there are two bledsoes present.

Right.

I mean, there's a lot of questions

we still have to answer there.

Well, I'm not going to sleep tonight.

And Travis and Erik aren't
going to sleep for a week

after they see this.

Well, welcome back, guys.

You've had some incredible travels.

I mean, you've managed to
cross the entire continental united

states in service to this
expanded investigation.

We've been in the heat.

We've been in the cold, and now we've

been actually in one
of the darkest places

in the continental us with Chris bledsoe.

And I'll tell you, we've got some really

interesting stuff to show you.

Some really interesting things happened

when we took Emily and Chris together

down to the Florida everglades.

And again, we were trying to
replicate as closely as possible

the experimentation that we
did with just Chris by himself

in the everglades.

Try to change just one
variable, in this case, Emily,

and then see how and
if the outcomes changed.

And some interesting things started

to happen as soon as Chris
and Emily got on site where

we had set up our equipment.

That's what I want to start with.

Flash, up there.

Overhead?

Overhead, yeah.

Paul. Yes, sir.

We had something interesting

happen in the radio
spectrum, just as Emily

pointed out what she saw. Is that right?

Yeah. Come take a look at this.

This just came to life.

We're using our log periodic antenna.

And at this point in time, it is pointing

towards Chris and Emily.

So this is different from the baseline

before they were together.

But then once they were
together and spotting,

we started to see this behavior.

This seemed to activate this transfer.

Correct.

- You're looking at data packets.
- Yeah.

That's exactly what that is.

Look at the waterfall.

That's what I'll tell you.

You can look at that, that looks
like a stream of data coming

to you being moved around.

And each one of those
different frequencies

is a different piece of data.

It's definitely interesting,

and it's definitely unusual
given the remote location

that you were hailing from.

This is an absolutely
strong communication signal.

I mean, look at that.

That is absolutely data.

The question is data
from whom and to whom.

You know, what's transmitting
it, and who's receiving it?

And why?

Well, to Brandon's question, you know,

I guess it's possible that he
may have either knowingly

or unknowingly transmit
bursts of data, but to what end?

Yeah, to whom?

He could be the transmitter.

Yeah, but to what receiver, though?

I mean, what on earth?

This is highly unusual.

After seeing this happen
throughout the night,

we didn't have our biggest
breakthrough until after we

had left for the night and started

reviewing some of our footage.

So the first thing I want
to share with you is this.

Whoa.

Look at the way this
one moves through space

and seems to touch down in a way

getting off the ground.

Far in the distance, right?

It's reflecting off the ground.

Or at least that's what appears.

But nobody's walking back out there.

And you guys didn't see this, right?

Nope.

So I get the feeling
there's a story with this.

I'm really interested in the timeline here.

Was there some exercise
being conducted with Chris

around this period of time?

Do you... so what we
discovered from the timeline

was that Steve found that

the time stamp on this
image was at 6:50 pm.

And if you recall, the spectrum analyzer

results that we were just showing

you started up when the
first sighting happened

between Chris and Emily.

That first sighting happened at 6:51 pm.

So within one minute.

Right.

You have this event caught on
camera, coupled with the uap,

with the other unidentified
aerial phenomena.

I think the correlations,
the people, the participants

involved, the setting, the remote setting

where this occurred, where you really

don't have light pollution.

You're in a very remote area.

And then you couple
with that the correlation

within seconds of ufo activity.

I think we've...
congratulations, gentlemen.

I think we have a bona fide unidentified

aerial phenomena event.

So not only is the data exceptional,

but the circumstances are exceptional.

This has got to be one of
the strangest things we've

put on this screen so far.

And this is in the
Florida everglades, right?

Yep, yep.

So here's the big question.

What caused this?

What is the combination of events?

Is this a random thing?

It always happens in the
Florida everglades, right.

We don't know.

But it really is correlative
with Chris and Emily

saying they were feeling something.

You got a signal on
the spectrum analyzer.

And my goodness, look at this.

Well, a data transmission

that accompanies these events,
coupled with other uap activity,

points to something greater.

It is probably involved with them.

They are some type of catalyst.

Incredible.

I know we're all

excited to really understand
more about what's

happening in Chris's brain.

And Dr. Thompson is going
to chime in with the analysis

of his results, not
just of Emily and Chris,

but also how that compares
and contrasts to his results

with Paul and Chris.

Fantastic.

In their investigation
at the Monroe institute,

the team, with the help of
Dr. Thompson, conducted multiple

controlled eeg tests.

In their first test, they recorded

brainwave data on both Chris and Paul,

using Paul as the control subject.

During the test, when orbs appeared,

Chris's brain transitioned
into the inward focus flow state.

But in the live on-screen readings,

it seemed that Paul's did not.

Did you all see that fly over.

Just huge one.

The team also conducted

a dual eeg test on both
Chris and his daughter Emily.

And when orb phenomena appeared.

They both got one.

Yep. I see it straight above us.

Their brains both seem
to react the same way.

Hey, Dr. Thompson.

Guys, how are you today?

Greetings from skin walker ranch.

We've been anxious to hear
what you have to report today.

Well, I'm excited to share it.

We've got some really
interesting findings for you

guys today.

Excellent.

Well, let's see it.

So let's get into the results here.

The last experiment or the last
study, we only recorded Chris.

What we decided to do this
year is we added a control subject.

We have Chris, and we have Paul.

Paul was our control.

Chris obviously is our
main subject and focus.

So when we look at
Chris in this baseline,

we see some areas lit
up, which we would expect

to see some activity in
the frontal lobes a little bit

in the posterior region.

We look at Paul, obviously, the brain

is always a little bit active.

We see frontal lobe
activity and a little bit

in those same regions as we
see in Chris, these lateral regions.

During the encounter, we
see a huge amount of activity

when orbs are present.

That means Chris goes into this flow

state, this meditative
internal reflective state.

So our expectation was then
that Paul, our control subject,

would not deviate
from his baseline, right.

He doesn't have the history
of the encounters with the orbs,

so we figured there would be no change.

Yet what we saw was that Paul
actually had the same reaction

neurologically as Chris.

These nodes within the default
mode network get turned on,

and he enters into more
of a neurologically relaxed,

internal, and reflective state.

The question is, is it a physical stimulus

or is it a psychological stimulus?

You could say it's sort of a
biasing of the experiment.

If they have a perception that
something is about to happen as

opposed to did you detect some sort of

physical phenomenology present.

I've been asking myself,

is it just the presence of an orb

or is there an influence, almost like Chris

and a transference of Chris's experience

to a control subject or
someone who is, you know,

now sharing this with Chris.

I think the inference
that there is the idea

that these two individuals
are somehow at least

their brain states are
connected is fascinating.

I'd like to know how much deeper
into that question we can dive.

Right now, we say this is
very interesting, very intriguing,

and might lead us down a
path to find out something more.

So let's continue for a moment here.

We've got another control subject, Emily.

And you guys are familiar.

Emily is Chris's daughter.

She has more experience with the orbs

than Paul does, but has not
had the same level of interaction

as Chris.

During the encounter with Emily
shows that same change as he

showed when he was with Paul.

So we've replicated Chris's
findings for a third time.

Emily, you can see all
through the central regions

and these deeper structures, they all

light up as well, just like we saw in Paul

and as we see in Chris.

Just a remarkable finding, once again.

What I have is, is the analysis
of the data from a number

of experiments done on Buddhist monks

and highly trained individuals who

can turn this state on and off.

But it takes a fair
amount of training in order

to teach yourself to let go and move

more towards this flow state.

You know, it takes a high amount
of mental discipline and skill.

Seeing our control subjects
shift in the same regions

in the same direction, in the
same frequencies as Chris

was not expected by me.

I thought that was a remarkable finding.

I mean, that is wow factor.

Incredible.

And don't forget, Chris himself

has said that he believes his
encounter on the cape fear river

channeled something through him that

allows him to share the experience

and the phenomenon with others.

Yeah, because what we just saw was

that he did channel his
experience through Paul, right,

or shared his experience
through Paul and Emily.

What happened to Chris
that's enabling him to, you know,

project his emotional state to you

and to Emily and maybe others?

All I can look at when I
see the same shifts in two

different people is that there's
likely an external influence.

And I can't say what
the external influence is,

whether it's orbs to
Chris, to our controls,

whether it's Chris to the controls,

or whether it's orb to both.

I think this is a wonderful experiment.

I think I definitely would
like to see follow up

on it because, you know, we
could be on to understanding

a little bit more about how individuals

render their personal reality as well

as how a group sees reality.

So this is a really good experiment

that gives us a little bit of insight

about how we see and perceive reality.

Well, this is another
example of us leading

the charge in frontier science in action,

not only relative to what we
have here at skin walker ranch,

but now beyond with your efforts.

And I really want to applaud everything

you've been doing in order
to set the stage for this.

And thank you, doctor, for your efforts.

We are truly breaking new
ground that will be reflected

on for decades to come.

Well, it's really fun to
be a part of this, guys.

Let's keep going.

Here, here.

Thank you very much, gentlemen.

Fantastic.

Those were all results.

All right.

Well, onward.

- Thank you so much, gentlemen.
- Awesome.

Thank you.

Why does this feel like
a cliffhanger meeting?

That's what I think.

Yeah, right. More to come.

Thank you. Wow.
