The Science of Reincarnation Think Anomalous 2018-05-17 | In the West, it's commonly assumed that reincarnation is just a "nice thought," or a faith-based belief with no real evidence to support it. But there is actually a substantial body of evidence to support the idea of reincarnation, and though it has remained on the fringes of mainstream scientific thought, it promises to overthrow a number of common assumptions about consciousness and the nature of the human mind.

Abduction of Antônio Vilas-Boas, 1957 Think Anomalous 2022-09-19 | Four years before the more famous Hill Abduction, a Brazilian farmer had a hair-raising experience that is eerily reminiscent of the “alien abduction” stories brought to light in the 1980s and 90s. His case is now widely considered the first alien abduction of the post-war era, and the first to imply an agenda of alien-human hybridization.Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/user?u=3375417Donate on Paypal: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/support.htmlWebsite: https://ThinkAnomalous.comFull transcript & audio: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/vilas-boas-abduction.htmlFacebook: facebook.com/ThinkAnomalousTwitter: twitter.com/Think_AnomalousInstagram: instagram.com/Think.AnomalousCheck out more from our illustrator, V.R.

Japan Airlines 1628 UFO Encounter, 1986 Think Anomalous 2022-02-20 | UFO sightings amongst airline pilots are relatively common, but the sightings of Japan Airlines flight 1628 on November 17, 1986 are notable for the wealth of supporting evidence. An official FAA investigation revealed cockpit recordings, radar data, and eyewitness interviews that all attest to a truly remarkable encounter, and an official government cover-up.

The Mothman Encounters, 1966 - 1967 Think Anomalous 2021-12-01 | While the “mothman” has become a fixture of paranormal horror since it was adapted to film in 2002, the stories it was based on were actually far stranger than anything portrayed on screen. The wide range of events that occurred in Point Pleasant, West Virginia in 1966 and 1967 remain some of the most perplexing anomalous events in history, and they implore us to consider how they all might be related.

UFO Disclosure? Part 1 - Tom DeLonge and AATIP Think Anomalous 2021-07-30 | A number of fans have asked me my opinion on the recent news around UFOs, and the apparent moves towards UFO disclosure on the part of the US government. I have been extremely skeptical of this “disclosure” campaign from the start, and I think it’s important that students of ufology take a critical look at these developments, and challenge some of the narratives presented. To this end, I’ve decided to do a two-part series on the disclosure campaigns of the 21st century, and how they’re not what they appear to be. This is the first of these videos, covering the work of Tom DeLonge and To The Stars Academy, as well as the revelation of the AATIP program.Special thanks to Robbie Graham for reviewing an earlier draft of this narration. Robbie is an indispensable voice in ufology, and he currently runs August Night Books, which has published some excellent titles in anomalistics.

Medieval UFOs? The Story of the Flying Ship over Ireland Think Anomalous 2021-05-22 | You may have heard reference to a story told by the 13th-century cleric, Gervase of Tilbury, about a flying ship dropping its anchor in a churchyard, and the ensuing struggle between one of its sailors and the assembled crowd. There are actually many different versions of this story dating back to the middle of the 8th century CE, and together, they tell us a great deal about Medieval cosmology, and they even shed light on the modern UFO phenomenon.Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/user?u=3375417Donate on Paypal: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/support.htmlWebsite: https://ThinkAnomalous.comFull transcript and audio: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/Flying-Ship-over-Ireland.htmlFacebook: facebook.com/ThinkAnomalousTwitter: twitter.com/Think_AnomalousInstagram: instagram.com/Think.AnomalousCheck out more from our illustrator, V.R.

Foo Fighters of World War II Think Anomalous 2021-03-19 | While the US government created the world's first government office to address the UFO question only after Kenneth Arnold's famous sighting in the summer of 1947, it was far from the first time that US officials had been forced to contend with UFO reports. Throughout the Second World War, Allied and German pilots frequently encountered fast-moving balls of light and other strange phenomena over Europe, the Mediterranean, and the South Pacific. The large volume of reports make it abundantly clear that the UFO phenomenon preceded the summer of the flying saucer, and suggest that the US government may have known more than they let on in the wake of Arnold's sighting.Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/user?u=3375417Donate on Paypal: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/support.htmlWebsite: https://ThinkAnomalous.comFull transcript and audio: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/Foo-Fighters.htmlFacebook: facebook.com/ThinkAnomalousTwitter: twitter.com/Think_AnomalousInstagram: instagram.com/Think.AnomalousCheck out more from our illustrator, V.R.

Travis Walton Abduction, 1975 Think Anomalous 2021-01-20 | There is probably no case of alien abduction more widely known than that of Travis Walton, a 22-year-old logger from Snowflake, AZ.

UFOs over Nuremberg, 1561 Think Anomalous 2020-05-27 | Ever wonder where the banner image on our website and social media pages comes from? It's a composite image based mostly from a 16th-century woodcut depicting a UFO sighting over Nuremberg, in modern-day Germany. As well as producing a captivating illustration, the sighting is a good example of an early-modern "wonder-sign," long before the term UFO ever entered the lexicon, and before anyone suspected extraterrestrial culprits.

Ariel School UFO Landing - Zimbabwe, 1994 Think Anomalous 2020-02-04 | There are many UFO sightings that involve large groups of witnesses. Interestingly, however, even where there is a consensus on a few core claims, witnesses don't always agree on some of the most important details of the story.

Hudson Valley UFO Sightings, 1982 - 1986 Think Anomalous 2019-08-17 | While many UFO sightings may appear to be random, isolated events, others are actually quite patterned - almost predictable.

The Mysteries of the Great Pyramid of Giza Think Anomalous 2019-06-18 | The Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt is the only one of the seven wonders of the ancient world to survive to the present day, and it remains a marvel of design and execution. Despite this, however, we know very little about its origins, or the purpose of its many peculiar features. Egyptologists generally agree that it was built as a Pharaoh’s tomb, but specialists from a variety of different disciplines have shown it to be vastly more complex than other pyramids, and very different from other tombs, suggesting that it may have had some other function altogether.Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/user?u=3375417Donate on Paypal: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/support.htmlWebsite: https://ThinkAnomalous.comFull transcript & audio: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/pyramid-of-giza.htmlFacebook: facebook.com/ThinkAnomalousTwitter: twitter.com/Think_AnomalousInstagram: instagram.com/Think.AnomalousThink Anomalous is created by Jason Charbonneau.Research for this video by Van Hunt (http://vanhunt.com).Music by Josh Chamberland.Animation by Brendan Barr.Sound design by Will Mountain and Josh Chamberland.#ThinkAnomalous #PyramidsDocumentary #PyramidMysteryMain Sources:Barsoum, Michel.

Tehran UFO Incident, 1976: Iranian Fighter Jets Chase a UFO Think Anomalous 2019-02-16 | It's common for debunkers to argue that trained observers don't see UFOs, but the incident over Tehran in 1976 puts the lie this myth.

Debunking the Bower & Chorley Story: why Crop Circles arent all Hoaxes Think Anomalous 2018-12-13 | In 1991, Doug Bower and David Chorley dealt a devastating blow to the crop circle research by telling the media that they invented the phenomenon in 1978, and made all circles in England in the next nine years.

Rather, the association between uneducated southerners and UFO landings, as well as the popularity of the term "Little Green Men," both come from a highly influential case from rural Kentucky in 1955.

Mystery Airship Sightings, 1896 - 1897 Think Anomalous 2017-07-24 | For 8 months in 1896 and 1897, people in the US and Canada saw mysterious lights in the sky, and sometimes, spectacular, winged airships and dirigibles. The airships are early examples of UFOs, after the "wonders" of ancient times, and before the modern mythology of extraterrestrial spacecraft dominated UFO discourse.

Flatwoods Monster, 1952 Think Anomalous 2017-06-06 | By 1952, flying saucers had become a familiar topic to the American public. However, the case of the "flatwoods monster" was among the first widely-publicized UFO sightings to also involve an "alien" being, and it preceded a rise in anomalous entity encounters around the world.

Zanfretta Abductions, 1978 - 1981 Think Anomalous 2017-05-06 | Many of the "classic" cases of UFO and entity encounters come from the United States, leading debunkers to dismiss the UFO phenomenon as a creation of the American media. But some of the most fantastic and puzzling abductions occurred in Italy, to a security guard named Piero Fortunato Zanfretta. The abductions were thoroughly documented by his employer, the Italian military police, and a journalist named Rino DiStefano, and yet the details are almost too bizarre to believe. The beings that Zanfretta encountered are unique in the UFO literature, but their behaviours are not entirely unfamiliar in the longer history of anomalous encounters...CORRECTION:Marzano, the location of the first abduction, is not in Lombardy, but in Marzano di Torriglia, near Genoa, in the vale of river Bisagno.Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/user?u=3375417Donate on Paypal: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/support.htmlWebsite: https://ThinkAnomalous.comFull transcript and mp3: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/zanfretta-abductions.htmlFacebook: facebook.com/ThinkAnomalousTwitter: twitter.com/Think_AnomalousInstagram: instagram.com/Think.AnomalousThink Anomalous is created by Jason Charbonneau.Illustration by Colin Campbell.Music by Josh Chamberland.Animation by Brendan Barr.Sound design by Will Mountain and Josh Chamberland.Special Thanks to Rino DiStefano for reviewing the script and correcting a few inaccuracies, and to my patron, Alexander Torres, for his generous financial support.

Washington D.C. UFO Sightings, 1952 Think Anomalous 2017-03-19 | As hard as it is to imagine now, there was once a time when UFOs were given serious, front-page coverage in US national news, and when the Air Force would hold press conferences at the Pentagon to brief the public on what it knew. All of this began to change after a highly-publicized pair of UFO sightings over the nation's capitol in the summer of 1952. Despite the Air Forces' attempts, these events remain one of Project Blue Book's hardest cases to dismiss.Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/user?u=3375417Donate on Paypal: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/support.htmlWebsite: https://ThinkAnomalous.comFull transcript and mp3: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/washington-dc-ufo-sightings.htmlFacebook: facebook.com/ThinkAnomalousTwitter: twitter.com/Think_AnomalousInstagram: instagram.com/Think.AnomalousThink Anomalous is created by Jason Charbonneau.Illustration by Colin Campbell.Music by Josh Chamberland.Animation by Brendan Barr.Sound design by Will Mountain and Josh Chamberland.Special Thanks to my patron, Alexander Torres, for his generous financial support. #ThinkAnomalous #UAP #WashingtonHistorySources:Edward Ruppelt, The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects.

The Ark of the Covenant Think Anomalous 2017-02-21 | The Ark of the Covenant, the sacred vessel of the ten commandments and the mobile sanctuary of the spirit of God, is frequently alluded to in the old testament. According to scripture, it dried up rivers, destroyed city walls, and killed people en masse. Then, it simply vanished. In this video, we explore the history of the ark, and look at a few theories to account for its disappearance as well as its whereabouts today. ** CORRECTIONA viewer with a much better knowledge of Hebrew than myself point out an error I made at the beginning of this video, where I claim that the Hebrew word for "Ark" is the same word used for "boat" in the language. Below is an excerpt from the viewer's email to me: "The Hebrew term ארון (aron) is not used for "boat" in the Hebrew Scriptures, but only for a chest of some sort, and nearly exclusively in the Hebrew Scriptures for the "Ark" of the Covenant. But this Hebrew word is also used for Joseph's coffin, and for a chest for collecting coins. Other than those two other usages, I did not find anything greater than chest size. A different Hebrew term, תיבה (tevah) is used for Noah's ark, and this word is never used for the Ark of the Covenant. However, many generations after the writing of the Hebrew Bible, Jewish writers in Greek translated those two different terms with the Greek term κιβωτός, (kibotos) which would be similar to calling them both an "Ark." But in the original Hebrew, they are not the same word. At the following link go to the paragraph labled "Thayer's Greek Lexicon" for more details.biblehub.com/greek/2787.htm** CORRECTIONSolomon was the third king of the United Monarch of Israel, not the second king, as I state in the video.

Condon UFO Report (The Scientific Study of UFOs), 1969 Think Anomalous 2016-12-15 | After 20 years of sub-par UFO research, the US Air Force finally agreed to hand over the responsibility for investigating UFOs to the scientific community.

Fatima Apparitions and the Miracle of the Sun, 1915 - 1917 Think Anomalous 2016-08-12 | The apparitions at Fatima made waves in the Christian community, but examined in a different light, they could hold the same significance for ufologists, mystics, and modern consciousness researchers. Not only are the apparitions incredibly well attested to - with upwards of 70,000 witnessing the events’ culmination in October 1917 - but they are some of the most fantastical on record, blurring the lines between angels and aliens, miracles and mysticism. **CORRECTION**The video states that the children first saw the lady at the mouth of the Cave of St. Irene. This is incorrect, and there is no such cave. They saw her in a field called the Cova da Iria.

The Zaragoza Goblin, 1934 Think Anomalous 2016-07-08 | The so-called "Zaragoza Goblin," a voice that emanated from the walls of a Spanish apartment complex in 1934 , is a rare example of an anomalous entity encounter that seems to have involved no physical entity at all. The case provides strong evidence that consciousness is capable of existing outside the body, and makes us wonder whether other "supernatural" entities like angels and aliens are really anchored to their physical bodies at all.

Charles Fort: Defining the Anomalous, 1874 - 1932 Think Anomalous 2016-06-02 | Charles Fort was an early-twentieth-century thinker and writer often credited with "inventing" the supernatural, or the paranormal, by creating a neutral category for anomalous observations, discoveries, and experiences. Before Charles Fort, anomalies were typically explained away, or else absorbed into pre-existing explanatory frameworks like religion and mythology. Thanks to his efforts, they can now be set aside for further research, even if they're still often ignored in mainstream science.

The Solway Firth Spaceman, 1964 Think Anomalous 2016-03-01 | The Solway Firth "Spaceman" is the name given to an anomalous figure in a photograph taken in Cumberland, England, 1964. For the unsettling mystery surrounding the origin of the figure in the image, the photograph is a prime example of a true anomaly: one that we can't place in any category whatsoever, let alone one recognized by science. It's a good metaphor for the science of anomalistics, and a natural choice for the first video in the series.Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/user?u=3375417Donate on Paypal: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/support.htmlWebsite: https://ThinkAnomalous.comFull transcript and mp3: https://ThinkAnomalous.com/solway-firth-spaceman.htmlFacebook: facebook.com/ThinkAnomalousTwitter: twitter.com/Think_AnomalousInstagram: instagram.com/Think.AnomalousThink Anomalous is created by Jason Charbonneau.Illustration by Colin Campbell.Music by Josh Chamberland.Animation by Brendan Barr.Sound design by Will Mountain.#ThinkAnomalous #MysteryPhoto #EntityPhotoSource:Jenny Randles Interview:youtube.com/watch?v=yAIEeufAdtw
