Have Alien UFOs Visited Skinwalker Ranch?

today we’re going to be talking about aliens and everyone’s favorite Ranch and not the ram Ranch I’m Aiden Mattis and welcome back to the lore launch [Music] a few years ago during the pandemi Skinwalker Ranch became very very popular as in it was all over the Internet for a while there in fact the popularity of TV shows and movies like hunt for the skinwalker and the secrets of Skinwalker Ranch are kind of what created the atmosphere that allowed us to launch this channel in the first place because for those of you who might not have been around since the very beginning my very first viral Tick Tock video was about skinwalkers now the ranch itself has some pretty interesting stories even without the skinwalker issue but the history and the cultural aspects are also important to the Mythos surrounding this property historically this area in northeastern Utah was

shared contested and just generally split between the Ute and the Navajo peoples both Native Americans but from different Native American groups despite the fact that these two tribal Nations lived essentially right next to each other they come from entirely different stock the Ute speak a uto as Tekken language and originated somewhere in the southwestern or western United States whereas the Navajo actually speak a nodene language and are from very very far to the North while Linguistics and ethnicity are not inextricably linked you do often see a language follow an ethnic group and then eventually it might diffuse through programs like colonialism Empire and other such but in this case we’re talking about something that you can kind of think of as similar to the difference between the Anglo-Saxons and the Celts in Britain two different groups both European but different languages living in the same

area and of course there was going to be conflict we don’t know particularly the exact location from which the Navajo emerged but there is a possibility that a group of people who are said to have disappeared called the naha who of course are from nahani River Valley that they might be the ancestors of the Navajo now etymologically Navajo and naha are not linked the Navajo referred to themselves as a denne people but there was a denne speaking group from nahani River Valley that sometime in the distant past according to Legend disappeared essentially overnight now in order to disappear they would have to leave around 1300 or 1400 100 A.D the Navajo and the Apache or at least their ancestors show up in the southwestern United States in the four corners region and we know this from the Pueblo people who say that they weren’t there the

whole time because the Pueblo were there the whole time initially having made a very long march down from northern Canada the Navajo lived as Raiders and Traders as well as some subsistence agriculture their trading nature brought them into contact with a lot of tribes but their raiding nature brought them into conflict with a lot of tribes however by the 1800s they were a generally settled agriculturalist people they actually learned a considerable amount of their agricultural techniques from the Pueblo people because of course any agriculture that worked in Northern Canada was probably not going to work in Utah despite learning a lot from the Pueblo however the Navajo maintained kind of an adversarial relationship and often did run raids against the the Pueblo the Pueblo actually ended up changing around some of their religious festivals to avoid Navajo rating season so contentious to say the least problems

for the Navajo between themselves and the the other tribes were typically of a small nature you didn’t see a ton of massive Wars not a ton of huge territorial displacement and on a few occasions the Navajo sided with the youth their neighbors against the encroaching United States in 1860 however the Navajo found themselves on the wrong end of the war with the United States with the Ute actually siding with the Americans now why particularly did this is unclear but it may seem it may have seen to them that they could spare themselves some of the treatment that they had seen of those who resisted further east by siding against the Navajo of course it didn’t really work out for either tribe the Navajo lost that war which resulted in their own version of the Trail of Tears on a much smaller scale known as The Long Walk

where they were forced to walk over 300 miles to a completely different location that was not equipped for their needs there were 9 000 people sent along on the trip they didn’t have enough food they didn’t have enough water when they got there they didn’t have enough supplies or tools to make shelters a lot of people died there there was a lot of sickness very very bad time eventually several years later those who survived the long walk and their imprisonment in a different location ended up going back to their Homeland which at this point was significantly reduced to what is now just the Navajo Nation the U did come out of this on top for the time getting a ton of land in northeastern Utah that previously they had to share or compete with the Navajo for the Navajo ended up primarily to the South and if Legend is

to be believed the Navajo did not take kindly to this they didn’t want the youth to be able to use that land that they had essentially stolen from the Navajo people and again this is according to Legend and I’m not even saying it’s necessarily according to Navajo Legend but there is a story that the Navajo cursed the land to be the path of the skinwalker so that the Ute would have to be looking over their shoulders at all times as a whole bunch of skinwalkers hunted all of their people now where this originated is unclear to me I can’t find an original version of the story on the internet it could very well have been made up as part of the low local areas Mythos but again I’m not sure but again according to the story The skinwalkers hang out in a location called Dark Canyon which is

not too far from Ballard Utah and the nearby skin walker Ranch in general they are haunting or said to haunt the entire Uintah Basin and you might be wondering what’s in the Uintah Basin obviously Skinwalker Ranch but before we get into the details of the ranch it’s probably important to talk about what Skin Walkers actually are because there is a good chance that you came and sat down to this video especially if you’re new to our Channel with kind of a misconception about this topic so skinwalkers which is something that I’ve been generally familiar with since the early 2010s due to various paranormal boards Reddit 4chan iFunny things like that those went viral again in 2020 2021 they made it out of the Creepypasta community and onto Tick Tock and that just blew the gates wide open everyone’s dog was a skin walker Skin Walkers were

hunting you in your suburban development the Amazon delivery driver was a skinwalker and and unfortunately most people including myself at the time had the entire concept of skinwalkers completely incorrect skinwalkers are not inhuman monsters capable of transforming into any given form they choose they cannot transform into your Amazon delivery driver they’re not going to transform into your dog that’s just not the way it works and as far as location chances are you’re not encountering something that is part of specifically Navajo folklore outside of the Four Corners region especially because it’s a closed practice held within the Navajo culture so you’re not going to find people who aren’t Navajo being skinwalkers and of Navajo people you meet even the ones that would be skinwalkers wouldn’t want to tell you that and those who know skinwalkers also wouldn’t want to tell you that because it’s taboo they’re also often mixed up

with the wendigo the flesh gate The Rake the goat man and generally any shape-shifting creatures especially those that the internet got a hold of those would be things like the rake the goat man and the flesh gate which we’ve talked about all three of those actually on this channel if you want to go check out those videos but those aren’t Skin Walkers they do take some little bits and pieces from Skin Walkers like mimicry and and such but in general not quite the same thing in Navajo lore what they actually are is medicine men who practice Bad Medicine in kind of the western Canon of understanding and folklore you would think about this as kind of dark magic bad magic witches and which is specifically in the like evil witches sense we’re not talking about kind of the like we’re not talking about wiccans here that’s a different kind of

thing this is specifically witches who practice bad magic magic that hurts people thing is what exactly they’re capable of is kind of hard to figure out the Navajo consider this closed practice some will be willing to talk to you about it others will be very closed off I’ve had conversations with probably half a dozen different Navajo individuals who have given me generally the same story but on occasion there are contradictions between one another so what I’ll be doing here is presenting you kind of a range of options that I’ve been told by Navajo individuals can apply to the skin walker but they might not necess necessarily be Universal to the lore it might vary from tribe to tribe within the Navajo Nation I’m not sure if I’ve used quite the right terminology there but I think you get what I’m saying one example of this

variance is that some people I’ve talked to have the story that skinwalkers can transform into they physically transform into an animal so and it’s a super a super animal so they’re gonna become a large wolf with red glowing eyes and black fur that can run at 70 miles per hour and knock on your window while you’re driving down the highway in other cases it’s more of a spiritual transformation kind of like what you’d see with Viking Berserkers skinwalkers would be a similar thing and that that idea of spiritual shape-shifting is not specific only to the Navajo which is why I’m inclined to believe that that is probably the more accurate interpretation but again I’m not positive So in theory the latter sort those who transform in spirit would appear they would put on pelts and they might even have a hodgepodge of different animals as camouflage so the

the idea would be that a you would be spiritually taking on the the form of that animal so you might get some of its instincts its powers and on the other hand you would be wearing their pelts as camouflage which might help you in battle it might help you with hunting stalking something like that and some versions are kind of a middle ground where there’s small Transformations somebody might grow fangs and Claws have sort of you know a wolf pelt on their back again it varies astral projection is also mentioned in some cases the idea that you can have your soul leave your body in roam around the world as well as the belief that they can travel through the astral plane either bringing their physical presence along with them or just to go and spy on people and that’s one of those ones that I saw a few times

heard a few times but was not Universal and then there’s another issue with Skin Walkers that comes up a lot of the time cannibalism and from what I can tell cannibalism is absolutely not a requirement of the process of becoming a skinwalker it seems that this may have developed from people mixing up the wendigo with the skin walker the wendigo of course is all about cannibalism that’s that’s the whole point of when to goes is in order to be one you must commit an act of cannibalism and you don’t want to become a wendigo Skinwalker is a deliberate choice but so far as I can tell when it comes to the process of if somebody chooses you know I I want to take the risk that I will be ostracized or even killed by my community in order to gain these Powers there are there are a number of ways to

do that that I’ve come across there does appear to be a certain Community aspect and a skinwalker must be hot and initiated by another Skinwalker another facet is that a violent crime must be committed against somebody who is important to you basically you have to commit an act of severe betrayal this often could be killing a family member or a close friend and I I think this is maybe where cannibalism worked its way in because that would that would do it would probably be over the top even but it would do it it also seems likely that there is some sort of use of psychedelics some spiritual journey involved where you’re supposed to go and in investigate your inner self and possibly meet with higher entities and go on something of a spiritual journey so again not surprising this is something we’ve seen all over the world

is that people who are doing shamanistic rituals and that’s what these would be is these are shamans to an extent what we see around the world is that yeah a lot of the time they use psychedelics communicate with the spiritual world and before the CIA got tired of using psychedelics and decided nobody else was going to be allowed to do it their use in medicine was also pretty widespread like seriously the CIA was like What if we used psychedelics to convince Charles Manson to commit murder and then told everybody else it’s dangerous remember kids the next time that somebody tells you the government wouldn’t do that oh yes they would thank you and as far as doing the actual transformation goes the skinwalker has to kill skin and then wear the Pelt of an animal once all of that is done supposedly the skinwalker can transform

werewolf legends from Europe and again I’m hearing this specifically from the Navajo side so it’s kind of cool to see the ways that interestingly you know the Navajo and certain things like werewolves in Europe originally werewolves if you read some of the older werewolf stories it’s not that they were transforming because of the full moon they transform by putting on some sort of garment or by taking off garments uh this collaborate for example does involve the moon but also in order to get out of werewolf form he has to put his clothes back on uh the lay of melian which might be the inspiration for Abyss collaborate that one has a similar issue at hand I think it’s a belt that he takes on and off and then of course we

need to talk about motivation and the primary motivator for skinwalkers seems to be personal power ambition wealth things like that and it’s a balancing act because these people who are seeking to accumulate Earthly wealth and power through the manipulation of sort of spiritual World ideas they have to keep the means by which they’re doing this secret all while exercising the benefits in public this is kind of reflected in the fact that Skin Walkers cannot be open about their identity as Skin Walkers for fear that they will be killed or ostracized by their Community because you have to remember even if the skinwalker has done nothing wrong since becoming a skinwalker in order to get to that point they had to commit a horrible crime so every Skinwalker is by definition Amer a less common but equally relevant factor in this could also be Revenge somebody might be

wronged by somebody more powerful than them and becoming a skinwalker is a way to level the playing field so they can get revenge but worry not because as powerful as they are supposed to be these guys do have weaknesses those weaknesses are very specific but they are they are there while a shaman a medicine man somebody like that would have more tools available to them the average person should you be concerned that you are in fact being hunted by a skinwalker should know that there are some ways to Ward them off for example burning sage Cedarwood things like that very heavily scented things that Skin Walkers don’t like additionally there is also White Ash and that is not the white ash tree that is white ashes from a fire and what you do is you coat either a blade or a bullet whatever weapon you’re

going to be using with those ashes and it seems that that somehow breaks the sort of magical force field that these guys are supposed to have but you do have to get it in the head or the heart because otherwise it it can survive these guys can survive dismemberment so you may be asking these Skin Walkers have a whole Ranch sort of Skinwalker Ranch is something of a misnomer those Skinwalker sightings have definitely been reported there the history of the ranch property goes back to 1905 but the history of the current Homestead that is there dates back to 1934 when it was built by Ken and Edith Myers it is located southeast of the Utah town of Roosevelt and just around just on the border with the Uinta uray reservation and that of course makes this you territory and the Ute are the people who

are supposed to be cursed with Skinwalker so that makes sense the Myers family owned the property until 1994 and as far as I can tell they never reported anything odd in fact the last person to own the property on the Myers side said that nothing strange ever happened there in interviews later on there are suggestions that the neighbors said weird things happened but a lot of it is hearsay in fact I didn’t find any hard evidence no police reports no photographic evidence no videos not even somebody going to the newspaper in 1994 it was sold to Terry and Gwen Sherman and that is when the weird stuff began and of course in this case we’re talking about the very weird stuff because this is Utah and there’s already weird stuff going on there what do I mean by that well an NIH paper from 1985 suggests a

strong temporal correlation between the numbers of reports of UFOs and nearby seismic activity for the year 1967 which a suggests that UFO sightings were extremely frequent in the year 1967 as well as the fact that there were enough UFO sightings that the National Institute of Health decided to look into it now that said Hill Air Force Base is just 125 Miles by air from Skinwalker Ranch and Area 51 is just 380 air miles from Skinwalker Ranch both of these have been used to test experimental aircraft and that it that has actually been the explanation given for a lot of UFO sightings all over the American southwest is oh sorry our bad that was the B-17 like won’t happen again and when you look at a lot of what’s reported well we talk about stationary aircraft in the sky that then suddenly move in a different direction that could

be explained by vertical takeoff and Landing technology Vito there’s a number of other possibilities and I am sure there is stuff the government has that they are not telling us about a lot of people pointed to the strange shape of the aircraft that they were seeing for example somewhere around but of course we have had round experimental aircraft for example the Vaught v173 flying pancake other UFO sightings have been described as triangular which of course as we know there were a whole bunch of flying wings being tested the two that are most famous being the B2 and the B17 the b117 some people reported cigar-shaped aircraft and there have been a number of cigar-shaped planes as well as basically any missile test and in some cases they described very large ovular objects either stationary or slowly moving through the sky which of course sounds a

lot like a zeppelin my point here is not to say aliens can’t possibly exist but that if you’re looking at reports of strange aircraft right where they test all the strange-looking aircraft there’s a good chance you’re seeing strange aircraft but they aren’t necessarily from off Planet Terry and Gwen Sherman however ran into something entirely different when they bought the ranch in 1994 and proceeded to move their two children as well as a bunch of livestock onto it their first day there the Shermans reported seeing a very large wolf or coyote stock its way up to a cattle pen reach through the bars with its mouth and grab a calf and it was trying to drag the calf out of the pen but of course the Bars were getting in the way Terry and his father ran over and started beating at the wolf with shovels it still wouldn’t let go and

eventually Terry took out a 357 Magnum and just shot the wolf at Point Blank and according to Terry it didn’t bother the wolf at all so he shot the wolf again with the 357 Magnum and the Wolf calmly walked away you ought to see me with the 357 Magnum I’m awesome and you know you might be thinking it’s possible a wild animal took two shots from a revolver and walked away but the weird part is according to Terry Sherman the wolf didn’t appear injured at all there was no sign of blood it was wasn’t limping it didn’t Yelp it just kind of looked at him looked offended walked off and then they stalked it for a little while only to find that the tracks just stopped suddenly as it approached the tree line as if it just disappeared that bit right there sounds a lot like a

skinwalker because what are we dealing with here it is a odd shaped or overly large predatory animal it is impervious to weapons normal weapons it suddenly stopped leaving coyote tracks and you might think about it you know if they were looking for coyote or wolf tracks and those transitioned into being human Footprints they might not catch that that might that might just not even cross their minds also there’s the whole astral plane issue and to be clear they said it was either a wolf or a coyote it looked like a wolf or coyote it’s unclear which one it even was but if the story is true it was probably neither another similar sighting happened to Gwen Sherman who was in her car when she saw a large wolf and when we’re talking large wolf she said that its shoulder reached the top of her window just

standing next to the car so we’re clear about that the average gray wolf stands about 30 inches tall at the shoulder and the average sedan is about five feet tall so this wolf would have been about twice the size of a normal gray wolf additionally there have only been 15 to 20 wolf sightings in Utah since 1995.

wolves do not exist in Utah at least not as a permanent population to clarify what that means is that there is no consistent wolf pack living in Utah there are some that range in from neighboring states but there’s not one that seems to make Utah it’s permanent or Primary Home alongside that she also reported that there was a smaller unidentifiable canine that was with the wolf another sighting of this sort involved another canine attacking a horse this time it was described as low to the ground weighing about 200 pounds with red curly hair and a bushy tail according to Terry it simply vanished as he approached and when he went to look at the horse it had several claw marks on it then Coral relating with some UFO sightings they had seven different cows vanish and four just were never seen again while three were found but they

were found partially mutilated one had a hole bored through its left eye one had a hole in its left eye and a six inch wide one-inch deep hole board through its rectum rectum damn near killed him did kill him the weirdest one is the third one which according to Terry his son had seen just five minutes before they found it dead and that one had a uh a six inch wide 18 inch hole bored through its rectum into its body cavity none of the cows had any trace of bleeding there was a chemical scent around all three and there were no signs of Eddie Predators around no tracks whatsoever now of course cattle mutilations are one of those things that get reported every time there are UFO sightings I I I’m not a big aliens person to be honest but you know I I do recognize a pattern

as far as the cows that vanished they rode their horses all over the place looking for these cows trying to find them and in one case they found the tracks for the cow and they just went on into a spot where there was a whole bunch of Twigs arranged in a circle the tops of the trees had been cut off and the cowl appeared to have just been lifted out of the snow its tracks just stopped but not everything that the Shermans reported was paranormal a 1996 article in Salt Lake City’s Deseret News details the reports of the Shermans and according to that article it is the first time they had ever spoken publicly about the events they had a whole bunch of UFO sightings to report and one of those sightings included a small box-like aircraft with a white light a 40 foot long object and a huge ship the

size of several football fields anything but the metric system ladies and gentlemen they also reported an aircraft that launched a wavy Red Light Beam as it flew as well as Airborne lights that emerged from Orange circular portals in midair two of the sightings were allegedly videotaped but I can’t find that footage anywhere and I’m I might know why that footage isn’t publicly available and we’ll get to that later in the video but the one that has me most intrigued about that isn’t the alien spacecraft because as we addressed there is a very solid chance that all of that was experimental aircraft or actually was weather balloons I I know I know weather balloons is a lame answer but again I’m working with what was verifiable information here the one that has me really intrigued is is the floating white lights emerging from glowing orange portals and before I get

to that one I do want to remind myself before I forget about this that there are other stories about there being deadbolts on all the doors when they got there and sort of just weird precautions and security measures that have been taken around the homestead but Garth Myers the guy who they bought the ranch from in 1994 has said that there weren’t deadbolts on all the doors and he didn’t have a bunch of weird security measures in the house and that the Shermans just seem to have made that up you can’t it’s impossible to say who’s correct because nobody has that evidence as far as the floating lights though I’m intrigued if they’re not lying that does not sound like any experimental technology that I can find on any public Source now I personally have long been of the belief that we are more likely to discover and

encounter interdimensional beings than we are extraterrestrial beings simply due to the vastness of space but I I’m you know I’m open I don’t I don’t say no to anything without concrete proof and part of the reason for that is that I am aware of what wormholes are or at least I have a summary knowledge of how wormholes work if aliens were to arrive it seems likely that they would do so through a wormhole because that would cut the amount of travel distance to a fraction of what it would be otherwise wormholes were first theorized in 1916 and in 1935 Einstein and Rosen theorized how this might actually work basically they they came up with the mathematical evidence that Bridges through space-time were possible I am no physicist so don’t quote me but from what I understand from reading some science websites is that a natural Wormhole one that forms in space

of its own volition likely would not be navigable simply because they’re not stable enough they are very likely to collapse and therefore traveling through one would be extraordinarily dangerous however if you could create them if you had a process to organize the necessary physical Concepts to create a Passage through space-time then you might be able to know exactly how long you have to get through it in which case a temporary functional Wormhole could be generated however wormholes in space are one thing wormholes between points on Earth that seems a little bit more complicated I am not well versed enough in quantum physics to tell you if that’s remotely possible in fact I’m not well versed enough in regular physics to even understand what I’m currently talking about so I would I would recommend like going and checking out Kyle Hill’s Channel or something because he seems to

have a better handle on this but my thinking was you know I’m gonna put on my my you know how to create better weapons hat and ask the question if we could create if we were trying to create wormholes to get around in space might One Step be to try and use just to see if on Earth we can use wormholes to get from one point to another very difficult to test a wormhole in space because you’ve got to open a very low you know again I don’t know enough about what I’m talking about my basically what I’m trying to say is that my thought process was maybe the government thought hey can we make wormholes on Earth if so that would make it very easy to invade places from places you wouldn’t expect so perhaps that they tried to create something like that and then shoved a

drone through it that was about the only thing I could think of that’s probably entirely impossible but you know what I have I don’t know I’m just imagining the situation in which they may have even considered doing that and that’s like Oppenheimer and Roy’s yeah that’s like remember that one bit of that movie where it was like there’s a near zero chance that we could ignite the atmosphere and destroy the world this is a near zero chance of opening up a black hole on Earth yeah yeah like I feel like that’s even more concerning but that’s just me I wasn’t there yeah I mean I would imagine that opening up a miniature black hole on Earth for the purpose of sticking a Navy SEAL Team where China doesn’t want it is probably not the best course of action but I mean this was 1994 and what else was the US government

doing in 1994 Aiden the Gulf War Ruby Ridge Waco we’re also around that same time another claim they made was in regards to mystery circles as they called them in this case the the most obvious ones were three eight foot in diameter circles that were triangularly arranged about 30 feet from one another additional circles were found that were perfectly round three feet wide and two feet deep Terry Sherman also claims that at one point while he was out and about with the dogs he heard voices male voices talking about 25 feet above him that the dogs were absolutely frantic and that he could not for the life of him see where the voices were coming from the Shermans were certain that their cattle mutilations and the UFO appearances were 100 correlated those were related he didn’t necessarily allege that the UFOs were doing the cattle mutilations but these things were

definitely happening at the same time they are connected I will say I am a bit skeptical of this one because he claims that he wasn’t the only one with cattle mutilations that tons of other farmers were having them and yet there were no police reports made there was not a single one made During the period that the Shermans lived there not from them not from anybody else and the reason I say that is that if you were to be making something up calling the cops about the cattle mutilation be a little difficult because if the cattle mutilation didn’t happen the cops would know officials would have to look at the corpses and then at that point it’s you know they’re going to know if the cattle mutilation happened the way you said it did because the corpse will either have it or not have it and then it’s on the

record and then it’s no longer that you’re telling a cool story to the media it’s that now you’ve got to prove it actually happened and that could just be a problem I’m not saying that it’s impossible that it happened I’m just saying that I have yet to see any evidence that it did one interesting detail to me was that Perry Sherman said most of the sightings happened when it was either stormy or overcast and during a new moon so these would be times when the sky is at its darkest he also claims that at one point he kind of accidentally communicated upon their craft which got low enough that he was able to wave his arms at it and then it blinked its lights three times at him and disappeared I will make a point here that one alleged event that Terry Sherman was out with that the dogs ran

off chasing some sort of orb of light into the woods and they couldn’t find them he heard the dogs panicking and then go quiet the next morning they went outside and all they could find of the dogs was some Scorch marks with greasy lumps of Flesh uh that that would have happened before the article was published and yet it does not appear in the article so I’m not entirely sure if that one was a later creation or not it seemed possible that that was added into the Mythos now a lot of sources do confirm that the Shermans did not seem excited about this they weren’t trying to monetize it it may be that they were actually experiencing something strange because they were getting ready to sell the property they you know maybe it was just that they didn’t like living there and they wanted to talk it up in hopes

that somebody with an interest in the Paranormal would buy it off them or maybe they genuinely wanted to get out of there doesn’t matter all of their problems were solved because a guy named Robert Bigelow decided after reading about this from George Knapp as well as possibly in Deseret News that oh you know what I’m going to buy that property because I am interested in ufoology thing is Bigelow offered them two hundred thousand dollars for the ranch under the condition that they signed an NDA which may explain why none of the footage that they claim to have is available online Bigelow made his money as a real estate investor but his true passion was Aerospace he wanted to do space travel that was his goal he fully believed in Aliens and the thing is much like me he knew he was bad at math and

decided to pursue money so he could hire the people that were good at math to find those things out for him additionally Bigelow had founded the National Institute for Discovery Science in 1995 and this was a really solid chance to give his team something with a backstory some concrete sightings things like that and seeing what they could come up with unfortunately over the course of about eight years despite pouring money into this having teams there full time running all sorts of tests Bigelow’s team was unable to come up with any concrete evidence that anything strange was going on at the ranch they were able to show some anomalies and certain readings but nothing that was definitive there were no verifiable sightings of UFOs Skin Walkers any sort of other weirdness like the floating orbs there are no recorded sounds of the alleged underground machinery and as far as unusual readings

went there was nothing completely inexplicable or definitively unusual Bigelow who was not willing to let his project die but also unwilling to continue funding it himself decided to seek government help to go to the to take what he had the fine findings he had collected so he could go to the US government and say hey look we think we’re on to something we need your resources we don’t have the security clearances we need can you guys help us maybe there are things that you know about that we don’t and shockingly he did manage to get Republican senator Ted Stevens and Democratic senator Daniel inoye to Lobby the then Majority Leader Harry Reid to start a government-sponsored UFO hunt program at Skinwalker Ranch so he did The Impossible and got bipartisanship to happen and he did it with aliens Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid went on to

initiate the advanced Aviation threat identification program which was not classified but it was also never publicized so they started it and didn’t tell anybody they also didn’t say nobody can know about this but nobody knew about it because nobody nobody was told about it and I bring that up for a reason which is that if you look back the last decade or two Congress and government in general has a habit especially in the United States of every time something important is going on that they don’t want us paying attention to trotting out aliens very recently Congress held a completely uninteresting unenlightening and useless hearing on spacecraft UFOs all of that in which they basically told us there was organic material on some stuff that fell out of the sky and when they asked were there Pilots they said it was non-human or non-terrestrial Organics or biologics or

something like that basically a bunch of word salad if they had found non-human beings in aircraft they would have said we found Pilots they didn’t say we found Pilots they found every way to be as vague as possible in a congressional hearing that was clearly intended to confirm or deny the existence of aliens now what’s going on right now both the major presidential candidates are facing legal trouble so of course there’s aliens again I say that because in April of 2020 the Pentagon confirmed oh oops Yeah some of that stuff that was released those those Navy UFO videos from 2017 yeah those are real sorry guys we shouldn’t have kept that secret and what was going on in April of 2020 we were realizing that we didn’t have a certain disease as under control as we thought we did another previous mention was in March of 2018 when uh Harry Reid

was interviewed and said oh yes uh that whole alien thing from from earlier in the the decade that was very real I told you guys about the aliens I I told you so much about the aliens back then and what was happening then well Russia had just done a a bit of a goofy move and gotten its diplomats expelled from over 20 countries I’m not saying that aliens aren’t real I’m also not saying that the government is trying to hide stuff from you I’m just saying that it’s a little funny to me that every time there’s an important political event that they don’t want us thinking about there’s aliens again and to be very clear both the Republicans and the Democrats have done this on numerous occasions this is not partisan it’s just the government being silly and Goofy and the reason I bring that up in the context of the

advanced Aviation threat identification program is that that wasn’t publicized which means that that was not to cover for something else that was not some sort of smoke screen some red herring so that the population wasn’t thinking about something else that was going on although it was started in 2007 but the lobbying started with like in 2005. this was not like they were trying to cover up the 2008 recession this was something that was in the works and they were doing for the sake of doing it and they didn’t publicize it this does not scream a distraction to me like so many of these other sightings do they kept it quiet without keeping it secret and a very real bipartisan alien hunting bill was signed the program ran from 2007 to 2012. it’s been about 22 million dollars and Senator Harry Reid has said that they shared about 80 percent of their

findings publicly and just nobody listened eventually the program was acknowledged by the government officially under the Trump registration in 2017 and yes there were silly goofy things in 2017 as well like us launching missiles into Syria when we weren’t supposed to be doing that but if you thought it was already as weird as it could possibly get I promise you it isn’t it seems that a major force behind a lot of this government acknowledgment of UFOs has been Tom DeLonge of blink 182. how do I know that it’s not just to the Stars his Organization for that or all of the songs he wrote about aliens or Angels and Airwaves it’s the fact that leaked emails between Tom DeLonge the lead singer of Blink 182 and John podesta Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign manager admit that if Clinton were to win the election she would tell

everybody about the aliens real email between two people who just should not cross paths about aliens I don’t think that the year is 2016 through 2020 were real I think we all experienced some sort of mass hallucination in fact no year since 2016 has felt real we should have known something was awful we had Pokemon and Blink 182 in 2016. Pokemon go to the polls when harambe died the timeline shifted so we’re in this very interesting spot where both political parties have used aliens as a smoke screen to cover for themselves and both parties have also launched legitimate investigations into UFOs so they’re they’re playing a weird game here where they’re like you know oh look at the UFOs we’re secretly researching the actual UFOs I’m gonna preface what I’m about to say by saying it’s one of the weirdest things I’ve ever written but

when Luis Elizondo the aaitp director resigned to go work for Tom DeLonge he told my cousin Secretary of Defense James Mattis that uh there was compelling evidence that we may not be alone so I I want to again make something clear the advanced Aviation threat identification program was a government program which means Luis Elizondo was a government official who went to the Secretary of Defense to tell him there were probably alien in case anybody is going to say what several people have already said on past videos no I am not closely related to James Mattis we share the same paternal ancestor five generations back and no I am not a CIA asset and we are not controlled opposition we do not make enough money to be controlled opposition my Integrity is worth more than your fiat currency feds as far as the ranch however goes because that’s what this

video is actually about well that was sold to adamantium Holdings LLC which is the most Hollywood name I’ve ever heard for anything and I think that was back in 2016. at that point it immediately underwent massive security upgrades like the kind that it had never seen before additionally that llc’s trademark applies to providing recreational facilities as well as entertainment services namely creation development production and distribution of multimedia content internet content Motion Pictures and television shows so adamantium Holdings which is run by Brandon Fugal they basically bought it to monetize it which is why there is so much security which is why you’re starting to see all of these Skinwalker Ranch TV shows and movies and people are licensing stuff and for me this is frustrating rating because there is absolutely no way that I can trust a single thing that comes out of skin walker Ranch ever again as long as it’s

privately owned by a corporation that is using it for providing recreational facilities and entertainment services because even if we were able to get permission to go to Skinwalker Ranch and do an on-the-ground investigation we’d have to sign an NDA and we would not be allowed to be honest because if our investigation found that there was really nothing weird going on there well that would kind of hurt their bottom line and we would either have to not put out a video and waste all of our time and money or we would have to lie to you and we don’t like lying to you and when it comes to the ranch and the stories about it I I am I’m gonna say the the alien motto I want to believe not necessarily in the aliens but that something weird is going on at Skinwalker Ranch because it would just

be nice to finally have an actual location that just objectively is weird instead of there being some sort of commercialization aspect or the government getting involved and saying no you can’t come here like they do with a whole bunch of random spots in national parks and as superstitious as I generally am and the fact that I’m open to the existence of aliens and Bigfoot and dimensional Rifts and I’m also obviously religious so I believe in various spirits and angels and demons and stuff like that I’m I’m skeptical on this one because the Sherman’s never produced any evidence of anything they claimed happened on the ranch the Myers directly refuted what they said saying that nothing strange happened on the ranch before they sold it and when you look at what happened afterwards a lot of that stuff is uh Bigelow didn’t really find anything useful he he found

a few weird readings but that’s about it whatever it was it appears to have been enough to convince Harry Reid to launch some sort of investigation program and the thing about that is that those files aren’t necessarily all about Skinwalker Ranch so that would just be another video entirely and I’m happy to make that video it’s just it’s not Skinwalker Ranch adjacent it’s not related directly so it doesn’t confirm or deny anything that the Sherman said happened and now that it’s run by a an entertainment company essentially it’s it’s impossible to get legitimate information on it what I would be very interested in if this video makes its way to any Navajo or youth individuals I would love to know if those stories those legends about the Navajo cursing the land the path of the skinwalker all of that I would love to know if you’ve heard those and if you’ve

heard those from tribal sources or if they came from outside and if you wouldn’t mind if you have contacts I would love to know if that is something that is actually told in those circles because again it is so hard to find this stuff additionally if there was anything that I got wrong about the skinwalker folklore any Navajo you and people from the region Apache those who would know the folklore better I would love to see your Corrections if you have them I’ve corrected myself on Skin Walkers and basically every single video I’ve talked about them where somebody has come to me and said hey I you know you did mostly good but you missed this so when it comes to this stuff I am absolutely willing to change how I describe it and to grow so I hope that you can you can correct me where I need corrected and if

]there’s something you feel like I missed here or that I’m not considering let us know again because we’ll probably talk about aliens in the future which will give us a chance to correct anything in this video that we got wrong also if somebody could explain wormholes to me like I’m five please do so with all of that said if you want to support what we’re doing here at the lore Lodge you can subscribe to us on patreon for just one dollar a month you can also check out our merch shop thelaurelodge.shop for clothes and you know stuff that’s more Lodge merch you can also become a member here on YouTube you can check out our podcast which we’re on Sunday nights at 7 pm where we talk about this stuff make some jokes have a drink it’s a good time if you want the best way to stay
