Doing remote viewing and telepathy type stuff. They inadvertently also ran into these other strange phenomena like UFOs and strange like portal entity type things coming and going in certain locations. And so some of these private contractors started buying up these properties and locations and running government research grants and projects, trying to see what was really there.
Host
All right guys, got a fun episode today. We got Carl Crusher here today. We're talking skin walkers, UFOs and who knows what else. Thanks for coming on, man.
Carl Crusher
Hey, thanks.
Host
Yeah, yeah. So you go to the Skinwalker Ranch every twice a year, you said?
Carl Crusher
A few times a year, yeah. Just whenever there's stuff going on. Like I'm going up in a couple of weeks actually next week they're going to be filming a bunch of experiments and research things. So my role is kind of unique. I'm the only person partnered with the History Channel that's allowed to film any of the behind the scenes stuff. So they fully trust me to kind of film everything going on around. So I'll kind of be lurking around Vernal going up to ancient petroglyph sites and around the reservation land around Skinwalker Ranch. So while they're doing experiments, I'm trying to like see what else is happening.
Host
Yeah. So for those that don't know what Skinwalker Ranch is, what exactly happened there?
Carl Crusher
So it's the longest known like government research location in the United States where they've been looking for paranormal activity and trying to see if it ties in with the UFO phenomena. There's been these secret reverse engineering programs and UFO recovery programs. And a lot of people don't realize that it involves a whole spectrum of like remote viewing and psychic spy stuff that was going on and a lot of different unique stuff. And one of the key locations was in Utah. So when they started doing the psychic spying against like Russia and Cuba doing remote viewing and telepathy type stuff, they inadvertently also ran into these other strange phenomena like UFOs and strange like portal entity type things coming and going in certain locations. And so some of these private contractors started buying up these properties and locations and running government research grants and projects, trying to see what was really there.
Host
Interesting.
Carl Crusher
And a lot of these properties still exist, and their breadcrumb trails are all over the place. So I have fun going back and trying to see what's real and what's not.
Host
That sounds real from. So that might be where the gateway project was then.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. Some of the people that were involved in the. The gateway, remote viewing, out of body travel stuff. Like one of the founders of those programs, a guy named Hal, put off, he's been to a couple of the local locations that I research heavily. One in, in Nevada, that's just north of Area 51. I had some whistleblowers leak photographs of him and other people from that psychic spy team. And they were doing, you know, both remote viewing at Stanford Research Institute, but also at the Monroe Institute where they did the gateway method. So.
Host
Wow.
Carl Crusher
So I do a lot of the gateway stuff and remote viewing as well. And then. But I actually go there because I'm also like a content creator.
Host
Yeah.
Carl Crusher
Do content know. I'm a YouTuber. So I have this ability to go with just my cell phone and go there in person and actually see what's there instead of just like, watch on.
Host
That's cool. I got invited to the Monroe Institute to learn it. I'm a little nervous.
Carl Crusher
Just this recent. Last trip.
Host
Yeah, I didn't go. Were you there?
Carl Crusher
I. I got invited too and couldn't go.
Host
Yeah, I didn't go, but next one I'm going.
Carl Crusher
Okay, well, maybe I'll be there with you.
Host
I mean, I heard they saw some orbs and stuff, so I believe I'm definitely interested.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. The whole contact protocol is an interesting thing, is this connection between human consciousness and the phenomena, this ability to sort of tune your mind and consciousness through versions of meditation and. And kind of tuning into these alternate dimensions of reality. And then you can attract certain phenomena and. Or sort of, you know, conjure it to show up. And then when you can actually measure that with scientific equipment, with either capture it on night vision cameras or record it with infrasound or gamma detectors, different things like that. Like, I actually have a sensor in my house that was built by an engineer and a physicist that worked at Skinwalker Ranch. And it live tracks everything that happens in my house, even while I'm there or not there.
Host
Serious?
Carl Crusher
Yeah. So that, like, if something happens or that hitchhiker phenomena occurs, we can capture the data.
Host
Interesting.
Carl Crusher
I can tell when things are happening or I see something, and then we can. We can actually log the data. And sometimes it goes like, all the way back to D.C. holy crap.
Host
So you've Caught stuff in your house?
Carl Crusher
Yeah, yeah.
Host
What have you seen?
Carl Crusher
So a lot of it's just like strange. What people would consider like sleep paralysis or out of body travel incidents that are strange. Like I'll go to bed at night and then feel like, like my whole bed is vibrating or like almost like there's a train going underground underneath the bed. And. And then I'll be trying to wake up and kind of stuck in between being awake and asleep. I'm aware of the room around me, but I can't quite pull out of it. Like I'm in this halfway in between state and then suddenly it's like I'm floating above my own body looking down. Almost like an out of body near death experience. Or sometimes I'm in another part of the house and there's, you know, other entities there, there's other figures or strange things around.
Host
Wow.
Carl Crusher
And then that can transform. Before it used to just be terrifying. You know, growing up it would be just like a scary nightmare that I couldn't get out of. But as I've gotten older and kind of trained and done the work, I'm more comfortable with those types of experiences. That's why they call it like the Gateway Institute or Gateway Program, because you learn how to like step through those doorways almost like Dr. Strange in the Marvel movies, and explore the past or the future or other things that you can draw information from.
Host
So you could go back and forth in time.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. I think that's what explains a lot of these, like ancient esoteric cultures and mystic, like rituals and wisdom ways that they used to have in a lot of these indigenous cultures that are present at these places, like Skinwalker Ranch. There's, they call it Skinwalker Ranch because of its connection with the Native Americans and the ancient rituals that used to go on there. And a lot of people don't know. Those were all involving like time travel rituals that the shaman would do.
Host
Wow.
Carl Crusher
They would build these stone circles and chant and walk in these, do these dances around these stone circles. And the shaman would time travel in and out into the past or the future. And whether that was real or whether it was psychically, you know, my experiences have been more visual. Through consciousness. Yeah. Through the dreams and the visionary experiences. And, and sometimes you have them even when you're awake. You go to an ancient petroglyph site and do the, the, the meditation protocol and it's like stepping through a doorway into perceiving, you know, a glimpse of the past or the future or maybe even a parallel dimension right there.
Host
That is awesome.
Carl Crusher
Then you look up at the ancient petroglyphs and it kind of makes sense what's going on.
Host
That is cool. Yeah, I'm going to Egypt with Billy Carson in a few months, so I'm hoping to have a pretty cool experience there.
Carl Crusher
Yeah, he should be able to get in all over. They, you know, people have the impression that you can't get in and look at those places, but you can really should be able to get in.
Host
He said he's got the plug, man. Yeah. But this is cool though. Stonehenge. That means that could have been a portal, right?
Carl Crusher
Yeah, I think that's really what it is. They have all these false doorways and these geomancy circles where they were ancient people were tapping into the electromagnetic field of the Earth and that connection with the Earth through the cosmos and, and the whole solar system. And when you go sit in these places that are potent like that, you're taking your antenna or your connection with reality and walking into this field that's amplified and it can open you up into different experiences and perceptions. And sometimes they come and visit you.
Host
This could have been what Nikola Tesla was onto.
Carl Crusher
I think so. In fact, a lot of those government programs that developed into what is now Area 51, and a lot of that, when you look at those breadcrumb trails and those reverse engineering programs, they parallel the development of early radar detection systems that Tesla was developing. So it's like as they were trying to figure out during World War II, how to, how to see missiles incoming, you know, missile threats and how to detect airplanes in the sky, they were advancing their radar detection systems. And again, just like the psychic telepathy programs, that technology caught everything else. They, they also caught the other phenomena coming and going and.
Host
Wow.
Carl Crusher
And originally they called them fast walkers, but they were these, these orbs of light or UFOs that would go and fly into the ground and disappear and.
Host
Geez.
Carl Crusher
Created this whole branch of secret programs in the government.
Host
That is interesting. So there's probably a spiritual warfare going on right now between governments that we don't even know about.
Carl Crusher
Yeah, I think, you know, whether they call it spiritual or whatever, they all of those same individuals that were involved in that they were heavily involved in like going down to South America and talking to shaman people down there and going into the Paiute and Navajo tribes and trying to talk to the, the elders there like they had the answers. And as much as they were trying to figure it out in their labs with radio frequencies and headsets, they were trying to Go down into, like, the jungles of Peru and Brazil and stuff like that to find out where this was really coming from and what it was all about. So the merging of those two worlds is really fascinating.
Host
Yeah. Take some ayahuasca down there.
Carl Crusher
Yeah, yeah, they were all doing that too.
Host
I love that. Have you or anyone you know done remote viewing on Area 51 or any hidden locations?
Carl Crusher
Yeah. One of the research spots that we just filmed with the History Channel for a spin off show called Beyond Skinwalker Ranch involves a location right next to Area 51 on the north there. It's a ranch called Mount Wilson Ranch where it was owned over the exact same time period as Skinwalker Ranch, but it was actually kept secret. And there's a lot of remote viewing that I've done around that spot that inadvertently, when there's big secrets or underground things or large facilities like that, like, even if I'm remote viewing, trying to look for, like a cave where there might be Native American artifacts, I'm always pulling back this information of, like, big underground tunnels or like crazy generators or electrical. And it's like you get pulled into the government facility stuff. But they have these weird defenses too. Like, anybody who gets into remote viewing, when you try to remote view those locations.
Host
Yeah.
Carl Crusher
You run into barriers, really, you'll run into almost defense systems.
Host
Holy crap.
Carl Crusher
Where like one time when I got into it and started remote viewing, it was like I would get pulled into an experience where it felt like I was sitting across a table in a white room with someone with a lab coat. And they're like telling me, can you match the colored wires together? Like, could match the. The colored wire with the colored light bulb. And it was like I was being quizzed and I got real confused what was going on. And this information I was getting.
Host
Whoa.
Carl Crusher
And it was almost like where I was trying to remote view, suddenly was doing it back to me and quizzing me back. And that was really weird.
Host
That's crazy.
Carl Crusher
But people say you get that, like when you were trying to remote view the moon. The moon and certain places too. There's different defenses there that, like, psychically guard them.
Host
What do you think the. The reasoning is for defending the moon from a remote viewing?
Carl Crusher
There's either facilities up there that they don't want us to know, or it is some kind of other intelligence, another dimensional entity. I know, like, when even the place in Nevada that I would research in some of these, you try to remote view them there, and all of a sudden it's like you're tumbling into Alice in Wonderland. And it gets very like Native American guardian themed or something. And like, or you're given a warning or something like that.
Host
I wonder how they're able to do that. That's like next level, right?
Carl Crusher
Yeah. When you think, like for a shaman, like, I have a friend that lives up kind of by Skinwalker Ranch and he's a member, he was adopted into the Ute tribe and he's actually a bird shaman. So for him to like go do a ritual, he will go without food or water for like five, six days and just walking in a circle in almost a trance, like outside in the baking hot sun for five days straight. So you wonder, like people that are really devoted to it, like in their life for them, how connected you can get or how deep you want to go with it. Where for me, I'm kind of just like skimming across the surface and bringing back what I can communicate.
Host
Yeah. That is interesting. Have you formed a theory on aliens? Whether they're like humans or just creatures from another dimension or something?
Carl Crusher
To me, it's more like a misunderstanding of linear time that we have. I feel like that we experience reality. Like everything that we perceive right now in physical reality, especially with our eyesight, is through a very thin paradigm of the colors of the rainbow and those different combinations. And all that has to go through your pupils and then it's flipped upside down and processed through the receptors in your brain. And then your consciousness has to witness all of that and interpret it all. And understanding that that's really just a thin spectrum. But there's a whole reality off the edge of the ultraviolet and the infrared and into the sound and the feeling. And these other dimensions that are non physical, that are really infinite, and those other parallel dimensions, I think some of them are more advanced or beyond us, whether that's through ancient methods, esoteric methods, or future technology. So I think aliens are some form of parallel entities or intelligence that have figured that out way ahead of us and are already communicating and traveling that way. Or they're. They're really something sort of from the future that is looking back that maybe is us, that doesn't have any intentions in destroying us or messing with us too much. But they are affected by what we do, so they're involved.
Host
Right. Because if they are editing the past, that would affect them. So they probably don't want to really do too much.
Carl Crusher
Right, right. Like, let's imagine if they've run into certain bottlenecks genetically. And so it's like to their advantage to try and come Back. But they're worried the more that they meddle with it, that they just create more problems.
Host
Right. It is fascinating because it seems like certain ancient civilizations were more advanced than us right now.
Carl Crusher
Right. And if you think of that, like not needing a technology, but jumping past that into just consciousness itself, like where you're. Instead of needing computers or some kind of an invention in order to communicate with the past or the future, imagine something has just physically evolved and capable of. Capable of doing that intrinsically with their own mind. Then it's sort of just like we might consider them a higher intelligence or an alien or maybe even a God and.
Host
Right.
Carl Crusher
Build a whole religion around. You know what I mean?
Host
Yeah. What do you think of these ghost communication devices? Do you think those are legit?
Carl Crusher
I think they're just kind of like. They are kind of a pseudoscience. But when you have strings of correlative events, like, I'm not opposed to it. Like, if I'm going to use a spirit box or some kind of a communication device, I'll always double it up with the radiation sensors, infrasound, night vision, and multiple things and extra witnesses so that it's not just the one thing on its own. So, like, if a voice is coming through, I want to make sure I'm also getting anomalous microwave and gamma wave radiation and capturing all that and then seeing if I get something on night vision. So it all overlaps and we can stack that data up. Otherwise it could just be some glitch coming through.
Host
But, yeah, it's interesting because any footage you see of ghosts or aliens so blurry, and it's, like, kind of looks fake. So I wonder why people struggle to physically capture that.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. And I think the technology is starting to catch up with it because now it, you know, it used to take a lot of really expensive equipment, but I'm right at this threshold where I can carry a lot of really advanced stuff just in my backpack now.
Host
Oh, nice.
Carl Crusher
Do a lot of this filming and HD just right off my phone. And there's apps, you know, to where I can do flight trackers and see if it's a plane or something that's not supposed to be there and even see what constellations are all, you know, augmented reality. So the technology that you can run right through, like an iPhone or just little handheld devices is really, really, really amazing. Where you used to have. Have to have, like, a whole truckload of stuff.
Host
Yeah. All the ghost shows.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. You can go up in a canyon now. I do everything alone. Just With a selfie stick in my backpack. I don't anybody.
Host
Has there been anything that really spooked you that you caught on your camera?
Carl Crusher
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I've straight up caught weird anomalies on thermal imager where it has like a backwards thermal image where it straight up looks like a. Like a figure stepping into the hallway and then disappearing again.
Host
Wow.
Carl Crusher
What's supposed to be a heat signature where their face and hands is. Is just like a black void, like a cold signature. So the thermal signal is inverted for some reason where the figure is.
Host
We got to throw up a photo that. That's creepy.
Carl Crusher
Yeah, I got some video of that and then just other strange anomalies in the sky. Just recently, you know, I've been researching this spot in southern Utah that I nicknamed the Magic Mesa to kind of hide where it's at. But there's these phenomena of lights that appear on the side of the. The mountain that you can actually talk to and say, like, you. I can say, will you appear as a triangle? And it will. These lights will show up like a triangle and then change into geometric shapes like these phantom ghost lights. And I filmed strange. What looked like UFOs fly overhead and shift directions and fly off and.
Host
Damn.
Carl Crusher
Capture all that. But again, you have to have, like, the stack data and keep going and going and going and get it. Otherwise people just glaze right over it.
Host
Well, there's studies being done on people talking to plants and them actually responding. So, yeah, it's. There's something there, right?
Carl Crusher
Yeah. I mean, they're even finding now that even though, like, trees and plants, they don't have eyes like we do, they do have photoreceptors, and they definitely have their own version of seeing. Like, they know when you're there, and they see like, when you're around, and they even know probably what color you're wearing and stuff. But they don't necessarily have eyes. It's. So that's one of those things of, like, a dimension of reality that they exist in that it's hard for us to even comprehend.
Host
I've met someone that can make trees move their branches.
Carl Crusher
Yeah.
Host
Yeah. It's. It's crazy stuff.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. So you stretch that out, like up into the cosmos, and that's kind of what these contact modalities are, where you're like, CE5 is A. Is a method that Stephen Greer came up with where it's like a meditation where you're sort of trying to make contact and let entities know where you're at. And Then these orbs appear in the sky and fly around. And there's a few different versions of that floating around right now that people do.
Host
Wow. One of your videos on Rumble I saw called Psychic Witches perform conjuring Seance. That sounds intense, man. What happened there?
Carl Crusher
Yeah, that was a weird one. So I just happened to be home and got a phone call that the spot that I was researching by Area 51 that this group of ladies had shown up and they were planning on doing a seance. Like, they wanted to go in the diner and do a whole, like, witch ceremony thing where they were going to try and conjure a spirit. So I was like, I'm going. So I didn't sit in it, but I wanted to go film and see if anything happened, just, you know, document it. So I went and set up my night vision and sat in there. And while they were doing it, I would walk around the building and try to get readings and stuff. We had one, like, really strange thing happen where the one lady that was running the seance, she like, started kind of prophesying where she was saying, there, I can see tunnels underground. I can see there's a chamber underground. And she was saying all this. Well, and she started staring up at the ceiling. And one of the light bulbs in the room just started, like, glowing this weird orange color. And then off to the right, this like, upside down triangle of light like, appeared and floated across the room. And then this. I can't.
Host
Geez.
Carl Crusher
I don't know what it was. It was just like a triangle of light floated across the room and into the wall. And then it just like disappeared and. And I like, grabbed my night vision and started trying to film everything and that was it. But it was just like a weird incident where the energy, like, spiked in the room. And.
Host
Well, they say we're just made up of light.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. And that's the other thing too, is how much do we know? Is that us, like, tuning into our own potential and tapping into that, manifesting things, or is it really like some ghost, you know, Is it like a spirit coming, you know?
Host
So you 100% believe in ghost, though?
Carl Crusher
I don't know. I think. I think. I definitely think there's room for it. I think there's that. I think that consciousness is like an eternal phenomena. I think that we go on and. And continue to go. So I don't. I don't think that we really go anywhere. So the possibility for ghosts and for that kind of eternal parallel dimensions is totally there as far as, like, what it is. Or how much of it is really just us interacting with our. With our own selves in a strange way. That's kind of a deep philosophical rabbit hole, right? Yeah. It's kind of a paradox to me. I think. I think that there is something to it.
Host
Okay. I love how evidence based you are. Cause a lot of guys in your field are just like, oh my gosh. Freaking out over like a moving bottle or something.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. I mean, it's easy. I've been around a lot of groups like that and to me, like, like I've gone up and you can do CE5 and. And everybody starts freaking out and they'll see some light going over and they're like, oh. And they're talking to it, almost like they're praying to it, saying, thank you, thank you. And I'm on my phone and I'm like, hey, that's the International Space Station going over, by the way. And you can look it up on the app and debunk it. You know, before you get excited, you can ch.
Host
That happened to me in the hot tub once I saw that. I was like, that's a ufo.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. See, Starlink go over and you like trip out. But like. But what's cool to me is when you do debunk it, when you do like prove everything that it could have been and then you still see something or you experience something or something follows you home or weird stuff like that that you can't explain. And that's where it gets interesting to me. Like coincidences line up or string up and something happens that you're like, okay.
Host
Right.
Carl Crusher
This is beyond just some kind of like getting caught up in the moment.
Host
Yeah. It can't be explained by logic.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. I'm not. I don't even like being in the groups when everybody's all, you know. Yeah. Every little shadow that you know, I like it unscripted.
Host
That's why you're on your own for most of the videos.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. And a lot of times why I get kicked out of places that I go work. Like I'll go and work at a spot and after a couple of weeks of being there, they don't want me around because they just want me to market their place. They don't really have anything going on.
Host
Oh, so you spend weeks sometimes. Damn.
Carl Crusher
Yeah, like when I go up to Skinwalker Ranch next, I'll be up there for probably like seven or eight.
Host
Holy crap. Yeah. Because some people spend a night and then they try to compile all these clickbait footages or whatever.
Carl Crusher
No. Yeah, I try to go unscripted. So I just like film it. And I film it all linear. So I like go through my day from beginning to end. And then I risk it almost being on the edge of being boring to show what it's like. Like for me to go hike around and go out and do it. And a lot of times I don't know if I even got anything. Like, I'll go to a spot and set up a time lapse and walk away and film up a bunch of stuff. And then when I get home and I'm editing, I'm like, holy crap. Like, I look at the time lapse and I'm seeing all kinds of stuff happening on the camera.
Host
Interesting. Have you ever had something follow you home?
Carl Crusher
Yeah, that's why I have the sensor in my house now. Yeah, it's because of the different stuff that was following me back.
Host
Was that from Skinwalker?
Carl Crusher
Yep.
Host
Damn. That place is really something going on there then.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. So the first time that I went up there. Yeah. It was like for three days. I had these really intrusive nightmares, like where it was almost like my thoughts were just being attacked. It was just like somebody asking me questions non stop. Like I was being interrogated in my mind and I couldn't make it stop.
Host
Yeah.
Carl Crusher
And. And then when I got home, like I walked in the front door of the house and the smoke alarm started going off above my head.
Host
Damn.
Carl Crusher
And then as I walked through the house to get the ladder to go up and take the smoke alarm down, everywhere I walked, the smoke alarm would go off above my head.
Host
Holy crap.
Carl Crusher
And then when I went to the grocery store, like the next day to get groceries after my trip, I went up to the cash register and the register that I was at and the one in front of me both like went blue screen and like turned off and back on.
Host
Damn.
Carl Crusher
And the receipts, like spooled out like.
Host
A whole roll of like a movie scene.
Carl Crusher
Yeah, it was like poltergeist thing. And I was. I like stepped back. I was like, sorry. And she was like, what are you sorry about? Because I like felt like it was me. It was some weird thing.
Host
Holy crap.
Carl Crusher
But I don't know if it was like your electromagnetic energy just gets like amplified or what, but. Yeah, it feels like there's something following you around.
Host
I always had a theory that the dream world was linked to the spirit world. So that kind of confirmed my theory right there.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. I mean, when you think about it, it's kind of weird. We have entire rooms in our house that are devoted to like every night going and laying down and kind of like going into like a coma.
Host
Right.
Carl Crusher
And we drift into this whole alternate state of consciousness, this whole weird dream state, and we spend like a whole third of our life in this reality, like, rebooting in this neutral zone. And. And I don't think there's very many people that actually explore that, like a. Like a Jedi or like a, like Dr. Strange or something and try to see what's there.
Host
Right.
Carl Crusher
And when you do, you realize there's a lot there and that the government has been really fascinated in what's there too.
Host
Do you think they have capabilities of programming you while you're sleeping?
Carl Crusher
Yeah, I think that not only just intrinsically through the phenomena, I think there's a lot. A lot going on there, but I think the government's interest in that, their development with that Tesla technology of tapping in through the electromagnetic field of the Earth. I think going clear back into the 1960s, there's evidence that during the Cold War there was a lot of low ELF radar warfare going on. That's still speculative about Havana syndrome and all that. Like using the electromagnetic field of the Earth to like, just like they would send a signal to your cell phone or your WI fi receiver. They've been trying to see if they can send signals directly to your DNA.
Host
Wow.
Carl Crusher
Hydrogen bonds between your DNA bands and your brain waves.
Host
Geez.
Carl Crusher
Can they give you dreams or make you see things or change your mood or give you diseases? And that's been a whole part of the Cold War going on since the 60s.
Host
That's scary. They're saying 6G can actually penetrate that deep too.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. The ultra low technology that they are using to try and track submarines under the ocean and all that stuff, they realize, can come up through the earth right into. Right into your bed when you're sleeping. Right when you're sleeping.
Host
Oh, that is scary. So we got to go off grid in a few years at this rate.
Carl Crusher
I. I have different stuff.
Host
You got your plans?
Carl Crusher
I have a necklace that I wear around my house a lot that I take to places.
Host
Is that this one.
Carl Crusher
This one's just a. Has different Native American beads that I've traded with friends and stuff that I wearable. I do have one that has a. Has a little electromagnetic pulse that it gives off. I can adjust. It's like emits aura to neutralize those fields when you.
Host
I need to start wearing something like.
Carl Crusher
That, man, you never know.
Host
Yeah. Because I'm around radiation all day. So we all Are.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. You're just swimming through all these invisible. Like every single Netflix movie that's pumping through the atmosphere is really going through your body right now. It's just a matter of receiving it, you know.
Host
And we don't even know the long term damage yet. Could be pretty detrimental.
Carl Crusher
And maybe that's where some of these weird phenomena is coming from. You know, we have these generations that are full of lead poisoning and mercury based fillings in their teeth and we've all got plastic micro particles in us and everything. And we don't know how that causes us to interface with these invisible frequencies and satellite signals and how that's affecting us and could attribute to this too. And I'm open to all that. What? Like whatever the explanation is, somebody should be looking at it because a lot of people are experiencing something.
Host
I think there's a spiritual component to the meat we eat too.
Carl Crusher
Yeah.
Host
If it's not high quality, I think it kind of hinders you.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. Like when you see like how they, how they'll just feed pigs like and they'll just scoop out of the garbage bins and they're eating the plastic trash right in with the food.
Host
Yeah.
Carl Crusher
And those microplastics are all right. In the food that you're eating and get into your body and like. Yeah. My fridge looks like some Frankenstein.
Host
Yeah. What do you got in there?
Carl Crusher
It's like just like. Yeah. Steak. Like chicken that's all grass fed and.
Host
Even the butter and no pork anymore.
Carl Crusher
Pickles. Yeah.
Host
I used to love bacon.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. I don't have any pork. Nothing.
Host
Yeah. Even my meats. Grass fed. Grass finished. Like I pay like triple the price. Yeah. No sugar unless it's natural.
Carl Crusher
I. I used to weigh 400 pounds.
Host
Holy.
Carl Crusher
When I started meditating and getting into exploring this part of my like spirituality and going to like on hikes to ancient locations, it radically changed my life to where I, I woke up and pulled out of all of that whole world of processed foods and everything and lost 175 pounds and completely changed my whole life around.
Host
That's amazing. They say nature is pretty healing actually.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. That's really. It is like getting out and going up and like to me was about getting out of like, like everything from organized religion to processed food to even a lot of the friends and lifestyle that I was living with everybody and.
Host
Right.
Carl Crusher
Going out into these ancient indigenous locations and sometimes taking my shoes and socks off and just grounding myself and sitting there.
Host
Love it. Yeah. You said organized religion. Whenever I meet someone from Utah, I automatically Assume Mormon church, right?
Carl Crusher
Yeah. So, yeah, I was born and raised Mormon and grew up in southeast Idaho and raised that through my whole life. So that. That gave me one whole perspective of there being that whole spirit world and this other dimension of reality. But also, in a lot of ways, was a real hindrance and kind of put a lot of blinders on for me that I think once I got out of the religion, I was able to like, really tap into my potential and. And without all of those speed bumps in the way.
Host
So you left?
Carl Crusher
I did leave.
Host
Wow. That's tough with your family, right?
Carl Crusher
Yeah, I'm like, I'm the only one in my family that's left.
Host
Oh.
Carl Crusher
Yeah, it pretty much ended. It ended my. My marriage and kind of isolated me. I had to kind of start all the way over, but damn.
Host
Yeah, I know a few people that have left and it's just screwed up all their personal relationships. That is such a. That's a tough religion, man.
Carl Crusher
Yeah, it's very high demand. They, you know, they don't want it to be like. Or come off like it is. You know, it's just like a lifestyle. And some people really love it. You know, my brothers really love it, and they would never go without it. And I loved it for a long time until it just didn't fit with the experiences that I was having. And a lot of those, like sleep paralysis, out of body, paranormal things, those were happening even when I was a kid. And the framework that the church was trying to give me to explain that and to solve it was completely ineffective. I bet it wasn't working for me. It just made me have a complex of guilt and shame, like there was something wrong with me that I had to repent of or get better. But once I was able to get out of all of that, I was able to, like, be comfortable with who I was outside of that and tap into my. My ancestry and. And nature in the universe more directly. And that's when, you know, everything changed. I lost all the weight and, you know, more grounded just in reality and the truth.
Host
Yeah. Why do you think some people got sleep paralysis so much more than others?
Carl Crusher
You know, I don't know. I'm supposed to go get an MRI done in Reno with some guy from the CIA there.
Host
Oh, yeah, that's gonna.
Carl Crusher
To maybe find out. But they have this theory that there's something called interference syndrome where there's a part of your brain, the hippocampus and the frontal cortex, that's like, sort of wired different, that maybe tunes you different. Into reality to where you perceive things slightly different. And so, I mean, that could literally be some of it. But I, I'm hesitant for anybody to be like, oh, I'm special, or I have. I'm some chosen one, or I have this gene X or whatever that makes me capable and you're not. I don't really think that's it. I think it's more like if you go and involve yourself in these things, just like an athlete would go and train in something, you tune yourself into that vibe and into that flow and, and kind of start swimming in the, in those waters, then you, you get accustomed to that. So I think just going and getting involved in it kind of tunes you into it.
Host
Yeah, I definitely agree with that. But on the other hand, there are these psychics that seem to come from generational psychics, like fifth, sixth generation. So there might be something there with genetics.
Carl Crusher
Every time I've had conversations with people that come out of the government that want to know about me and what I do, one of the first things they ask me is if I have Native American DNA ancestry. And I'm like 1 32nd creek. The rest is like Norwegian and. But I. So I don't really know. There could be some. Something to the DNA that's just like, makes you more amplified or potent to the phenomena. If I, if there is anything to that, it is something ancestral that way.
Host
Native Americans, yeah, they didn't teach us that in school, that they were spiritual. They just said, we killed them all.
Carl Crusher
Yeah, they treat. They said they were like savages. You know, they've been out there like they were primitive savages. But my, my experience with that is they were, you know, highly advanced and wow, they knew the stars, they understood the cosmos and the cycles.
Host
Holy crap.
Carl Crusher
Like this petroglyph site that I go to all the time in southern Utah. I was just there on the, on the summer solstice. And it's like this, the one day of the year that they picked when the sun comes up and it shines through this very specific crack in the rocks and the way the light comes through. The light shines and moves across these. This panel of petroglyphs and it tells this whole story of like the, the shaman going from a villager to becoming like a God or like time traveling and all of his powers. But it's like their ability to know that on that specific day and time the light was going to come through to tell the story and then to carve it there, like, and how they did that across the Whole cliffside for like a half a mile.
Host
Yeah.
Carl Crusher
It's as advanced as something like Stonehenge. And these are people that were supposed to just be like, Stone age.
Host
Yeah. You know what they taught us, Right?
Carl Crusher
When you go and sit there and you really fathom it, they were. They were smart, just in a different way. They were just connected to the universe. Differently. Different.
Host
That's incredible. Makes you wonder how much of history that we were taught growing up is bs. Yeah, a lot, right?
Carl Crusher
Yeah. It's all agenda based. Yeah. For whoever. Whatever agenda that they had, if it was, you know, we got to move west and take that territory over, then it's like, well, we have manifest destiny. God said that it's our. Our chosen land, you know, so then they march on and do it, you know, Crazy. It's just, you know, when you look at it, though, and what's really there and. And the customs, it's fascinating to me.
Host
Have you seen any, like, ancient relics or anything on your travels? Like, ancient statues?
Carl Crusher
Yeah, I mean, it's common to find where I'm at a lot of just artifacts and things and sometimes that don't belong. Like, you'll find things that do fit, twine and stuff that. That should be deteriorated and gone from, like a moccasin or a sandal that's supposed to be 6,000 years old. You wouldn't expect it to still be there, but you'll find, like. Like a corn cob that someone ate the corn off of, and it's sitting there right by, like, where you can tell where they ate a meal. And, like, you'll find artifacts. And when you try to wrap your head around, like, how long ago 6000 years is to think that it's been sitting there and not like a single rat or bird or anything is, like, taking it. And like, yeah, you find some of that stuff, it really blows your mind. The pottery or, like, I'll find a bone occasionally or artifact. But really, what's cool is when you. You go up a canyon where nobody really goes and you turn a random corner and you find ancient carvings and you'll see stuff that almost looks like a dinosaur. Like a carving of people next to animals that are supposed to not exist at the same time as people. Like, I've seen pictographs, which is like pigment paintings that look like people right next to dinosaurs or even riding on their back, like. Like the Flintstones.
Host
Holy crap.
Carl Crusher
And that doesn't make any sense. Like, that doesn't fit in our accepted timeline.
Host
Yeah. Because we were supposed to come Way after dinosaurs, right?
Carl Crusher
Yeah. So I don't know how that fits, but. But they're in the same canyons down in southern Utah where there's tons of fossilized dinosaur tracks. You can go out in the desert and see where the big three toed dinosaurs ran through the mud.
Host
Holy crap, that's cool.
Carl Crusher
And their footprints are still there and you can go see them.
Host
Damn. Humans might have existed during dinosaurs.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. But they'll never tell you that. Like in the public school or accepted archaeology, they would say no. You have to like be willing to go out and hike and look around where. Or even crawl under a fence where you're not supposed to go sometimes. And then you'll see that stuff.
Host
Damn, that's a shame. Yeah. I think because the education system is so politicized now.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. And you think about it, it doesn't make us look good to say, like, before white people got to America, there was an indigenous culture here potentially for 50,000 years or longer. Or maybe even that would rewrite history itself from where humans originated from or everything. Like that's very controversial. You know, who is here and who the land belongs to and all that. A lot of these petroglyphs and stuff people consider like property markers. You know, like who was here first.
Host
Right.
Carl Crusher
And it's way more convenient just to build a subdivision over top and not talk about it.
Host
Yeah, absolutely. You ever see a dinosaur fossil?
Carl Crusher
Yeah. The tracks. You know, I haven't actually found any fossils, like the bones itself.
Host
Yeah.
Carl Crusher
But I've totally, like been in a spot that was totally random and found the footprints. Even a spot where you can see the footprints and then what looks like the whole belly and a tail like. Like a giant alligator.
Host
Wow.
Carl Crusher
Laid in the mud. And you can even see the scales on the belly and the tail.
Host
Damn. You got to dig there. You got to hire a team. You could probably sell that thing for a ton of money.
Carl Crusher
There's like a. There's a Zion glamping like a camp spot right there.
Host
Oh, yeah.
Carl Crusher
People go like a resort. Yeah.
Host
Oh. So they make that like an attraction.
Carl Crusher
Kind of. Kind of. It's funny, I. I geek out every time. I'm like, I can't believe you don't have this like a whole thing.
Host
Yeah. That's, you know. But any sightings of Bigfoot?
Carl Crusher
Yeah. Several years ago I was in Northern California and it was like a classic Bigfoot encounter where it was like a giant shadow figure thing came up through the trees in the middle of the night and it was like making a Ton of noise. And coming up through the bushes, and it left these big tracks in the dirt, and we were able to pour plaster in and get the plaster castings of the footprints out. But, like, I didn't see the face or the actual. It just looked like a giant shadow thing. And the way that it moved was, like, not like an animal. It was like. It moved up like a. Like a giant troll thing, like the boogeyman.
Host
Wow.
Carl Crusher
It was super scary. Then when it. When it turned around and, like, moved back through the trees, it was like, it glided. Like, it was, like, interesting. Like a giant black trash bag floating through. Like. Like it was very. Like a ghost, you know? So I don't know what that was.
Host
Yeah. There's a theory that they could kind of hop dimensions. Right?
Carl Crusher
Yeah. I mean, and maybe, like, this idea of bigfoot and, like, skinwalkers and the. The shadow figures is all kind of one thing with just. Different cultures have different names for.
Host
Right.
Carl Crusher
But the encounters are very similar. You know, my encounter is, like, what I saw at skinwalker ranch was very similar, but it was more like, crouched and crawling across the ground and then went into the ground, disappeared. But in northern California, it was, like, standing up and walking like a man.
Host
Holy crap.
Carl Crusher
It was, like, tall.
Host
So it's all perspective, man. Maybe everyone sees it differently or interesting.
Carl Crusher
Yeah.
Host
Wow. That's crazy.
Carl Crusher
But a lot of people don't actually go. They sit and watch at home, and they see on tv. That's fake or whatever.
Host
Yeah.
Carl Crusher
And, you know, that was my attitude. But then you go, for real. You take the equipment and you actually have an encounter, and you go home questioning your whole reality.
Host
Right. I would highly recommend people just try it on their own before they speak out against it.
Carl Crusher
Travel and go look for yourself.
Host
Yeah. Because if you still feel like that way after then, that's more respect to you. At least you put yourself in that situation.
Carl Crusher
Yeah. Like, I went up there for the bigfoot thing. Like, it was a joke. We were just filming a documentary, like a retelling of a story. And the first night up there, we had the whole encounter. Half of the crew freaked out and, like, left.
Host
Holy crap.
Carl Crusher
And then the. The rest of the trip up there, it shook me. And, like, after I got home, I was legit scared to go up in the mountains for a while. I was like. I don't know. Like, it really. I was still Mormon back then. It totally bit me. Like, I was like. I don't know what that was.
Host
Like, it doesn't seem to be vicious or, like, Attack anyone? From the reports I've read, no.
Carl Crusher
If it. If it wanted to kill us, it easily could have. I mean, even if it was a bear, if it wanted to, it totally could have. Yeah, it walked right up and watched us and turned around and walked away way.
Host
Probably thinks we're so primitive. Yeah, like ants.
Carl Crusher
It sent the message, whatever.
Host
Yeah, telepathy too. It probably has a lot of these high intelligent beings. That's how they talk, right?
Carl Crusher
They definitely hear those stories. Yeah.
Host
Yeah. That's crazy. Well, Carl, it's been fun. What are your next trips? And any documentaries coming out or videos?
Carl Crusher
Yeah, I post all the time on my YouTube channel. Everything. I go by Carl Crusher. My real last name is Andresen, but nobody can spell that right, so I just go by Carl Crusher. But yeah, I post like twice a week on my YouTube and on my Patreon. Going up to Skinwalker Ranch again, spending a week up there. And then after that, this September I might go to Norway, where the Project Blue Book left off. They had the Hestal and Lights project over there where J. Allen Hynek used to do most of his research. His son Paul Hynek is a friend of mine and the current Hessel and Lights team has invited me to come over there. So this fall I might go over there and try to film a whole project of that.
Host
That'd be awesome, man. I want to know more about those lights. Those are fascinating.
Carl Crusher
Yeah.
Host
Well, we'll link all your stuff below. Thanks for coming on, man.
Carl Crusher
Appreciate it.
Host
Thank you. Thanks for watching, guys. As always. I will see you tomorrow.

Digital Social Hour: The Dark Truth Behind Skinwalker Ranch! | Carl Crusher DSH #779
Host: Sean Kelly
Guest: Carl Crusher
Release Date: October 4, 2024
In Episode #779 of Digital Social Hour, host Sean Kelly delves into the enigmatic world of Skinwalker Ranch with guest Carl Crusher, a renowned remote viewer, paranormal investigator, and content creator. The episode unpacks the intricate layers of government research, UFO phenomena, ancient rituals, and personal experiences that intertwine at one of America's most mysterious locations.
Skinwalker Ranch, located in Utah, is depicted as the longest-running government research site in the United States dedicated to investigating paranormal activities and UFO phenomena. Carl Crusher explains that the ranch has been a focal point for various secretive projects, including remote viewing and psychic spying aimed at foreign adversaries like Russia and Cuba.
“It's the longest known like government research location in the United States where they've been looking for paranormal activity and trying to see if it ties in with the UFO phenomena.” – Carl Crusher [01:41]
The ranch became a hotspot inadvertently when these psychic programs encountered unexplained phenomena such as UFO sightings and portal-like entities. This led to private contractors acquiring properties to further explore these mysteries.
Carl Crusher sheds light on the Gateway Project, a government initiative focused on remote viewing and out-of-body experiences. This project aimed to harness psychic abilities for espionage and reconnaissance, particularly during the Cold War era.
“Some of the people that were involved in the gateway, remote viewing, out of body travel stuff... they were doing remote viewing at Stanford Research Institute, but also at the Monroe Institute where they did the gateway method.” – Carl Crusher [03:28]
Carl's unique position as the only individual partnered with the History Channel to film behind-the-scenes activities at Skinwalker Ranch allows him to document and investigate clandestine experiments and their unintended paranormal encounters.
Carl shares his personal encounters with phenomena that challenge conventional understanding. These experiences range from sleep paralysis and out-of-body sensations to witnessing shadowy entities and unexplained anomalies in his own home.
“I'll go to bed at night and then feel like, like my whole bed is vibrating... suddenly it's like I'm floating above my own body looking down.” – Carl Crusher [05:07]
His home is equipped with sensors developed by engineers and physicists from Skinwalker Ranch, enabling real-time tracking of paranormal activities.
“I have a sensor in my house that was built by an engineer and a physicist that worked at Skinwalker Ranch. And it live tracks everything that happens in my house, even while I'm there or not there.” – Carl Crusher [04:48]
These experiences have transformed Carl's perception, allowing him to approach these phenomena with a blend of skepticism and openness, fostering a deeper exploration of consciousness and alternate dimensions.
A significant portion of the discussion revolves around ancient indigenous cultures and their advanced understanding of time and spirituality. Carl posits that Native American shamans performed time travel rituals, enabling them to traverse different eras and dimensions.
“They would build these stone circles and chant and walk in these, do these dances around these stone circles. And the shaman would time travel in and out into the past or the future.” – Carl Crusher [06:27]
Visiting petroglyph sites, Carl experiences meditative states that seemingly transport him into visions of the past and future, suggesting a tangible connection between ancient rituals and paranormal phenomena.
“And sometimes you have them even when you're awake. You go to an ancient petroglyph site and do the meditation protocol and it's like stepping through a doorway into perceiving, you know, a glimpse of the past or the future or maybe even a parallel dimension right there.” – Carl Crusher [07:54]
These insights challenge the conventional timeline of human history, especially when petroglyphs depict humans alongside dinosaurs, raising questions about prehistoric human existence.
Advancements in technology have empowered modern investigators like Carl to document and analyze paranormal activities more effectively. The integration of smartphones, night vision cameras, thermal imagers, and various sensors has democratized access to sophisticated equipment previously confined to large research facilities.
“The technology that you can run right through, like an iPhone or just little handheld devices is really, really, really amazing... you have to carry a lot of really advanced stuff just in my backpack now.” – Carl Crusher [16:53]
Carl emphasizes the importance of multi-layered data collection to validate paranormal encounters, advocating for the simultaneous use of audio, visual, and electromagnetic sensors to corroborate findings.
Carl offers a theoretical perspective on the nature of extraterrestrial beings, suggesting that aliens might be entities from parallel dimensions or future iterations of humanity itself. This aligns with ancient legends and contemporary UFO sightings, positing that our understanding of time and reality is inherently limited.
“I think aliens are some form of parallel entities or intelligence that have figured that out way ahead of us and are already communicating and traveling that way.” – Carl Crusher [13:37]
He also discusses the concept of dimensional defenses, where remote viewers encounter psychic barriers when attempting to probe highly classified or extraterrestrial areas like the Moon or Area 51.
“They have these weird defenses too. Like anybody who gets into remote viewing, when you try to remote view those locations, you run into barriers...” – Carl Crusher [11:32]
Carl's journey from a life deeply rooted in organized religion to one of spiritual and paranormal exploration underscores a transformative personal narrative. His departure from the Mormon Church led to significant changes in his personal life, health, and professional pursuits.
“When I started meditating and getting into exploring this part of my like spirituality... I lost 175 pounds and completely changed my whole life around.” – Carl Crusher [29:51]
He advocates for evidence-based skepticism, emphasizing the importance of firsthand experiences over hearsay and debunked myths.
“I love how evidence based you are. Cause a lot of guys in your field are just like, oh my gosh. Freaking out over like a moving bottle or something.” – Host [22:12]
“But if you learn to debunk it, when you still see something... that's where it gets interesting to me.” – Carl Crusher [22:19]
Looking ahead, Carl plans to continue his investigative pursuits by returning to Skinwalker Ranch and exploring other significant sites such as Norway's Project Blue Book. His upcoming projects aim to uncover more about unexplained lights and phenomena, further bridging ancient wisdom with modern investigative techniques.
“Going up to Skinwalker Ranch again, spending a week up there. And then after that, this September I might go to Norway... to try to film a whole project of that.” – Carl Crusher [43:19]
Carl remains committed to documenting his findings on his YouTube channel and Patreon, encouraging viewers to engage deeply with the mysteries of our world.
This episode of Digital Social Hour offers a comprehensive exploration of the multifaceted mysteries surrounding Skinwalker Ranch, blending government research, ancient rituals, personal experiences, and advanced technology. Carl Crusher's insights provide a thought-provoking perspective on the intersection of reality, consciousness, and the unknown, inviting listeners to question and explore the hidden truths that lie beyond our conventional understanding.
“I'm not. I don't even like being in the groups when everybody's all, you know. Every little shadow... I like it unscripted.” – Carl Crusher [23:27]
For those fascinated by the unexplained and eager to delve deeper into the secrets of Skinwalker Ranch and beyond, this episode serves as both an informative guide and an invitation to journey into the unknown.
