1. 0:00they say dogs experience the world
2. 0:03differently from humans their senses of
3. 0:05smell and hearing are far better than
4. 0:07ours but a recent video has people
5. 0:09wondering if these superpowers go far
6. 0:12beyond their noses and ears
7. 0:15on a sweltering July Day in 2020 UK
8. 0:18residents Meg oxby and Jeff parlett are
9. 0:22on a hike with their Trio of Hungarian
10. 0:24Vizslas unaware of what they're about to
11. 0:26witness we were walking along just
12. 0:29having a chat like we normally do and
13. 0:32then we noticed that the dogs were not
14. 0:35moving
15. 0:36[Music]
16. 0:38at first this looks like a photograph
17. 0:40but keep watching the camera starts
18. 0:43moving and yet the dogs all appear to be
19. 0:46frozen in their tracks I couldn't
20. 0:48believe it you could see the leaves
21. 0:51moving and all the fishes but the dogs
22. 0:53were completely still I'm telling you we
23. 0:56are not freezing or slowing down this
24. 0:58video you can tell by the Shrubbery
25. 1:00right here that it's moving in the Wind
26. 1:04now check out how this dog has his leg
27. 1:07raised
28. 1:08and tail curled
29. 1:11and this other dog is Frozen in midstep
30. 1:16look it seems impossible to maintain
31. 1:18balance like that the three V's laws
32. 1:21stay in that position for four whole
33. 1:23minutes before resuming their normal dog
34. 1:25activity
35. 1:27[Music]
36. 1:31ancient cultures from the Greeks to the
37. 1:33Romans to Koreans all have myths about
38. 1:36dogs having Supernatural ability
39. 1:38the Mayans believe that dogs known for
40. 1:41being great swimmers swam The Souls of
41. 1:43the Dead across a shadowy lake to the
42. 1:45afterlife
43. 1:46forensic investigator Chase klosky
44. 1:49wonders if something like that is at
45. 1:51work here are there like forces somehow
46. 1:55making them stop like that it seems like
47. 1:58a theory is that dogs have a spiritual
48. 2:00side almost they sense things like
49. 2:02earthquakes illness even death sometimes
50. 2:05recent Studies have explored whether
51. 2:07dogs have some sort of sixth sense to
52. 2:09communicate telepathically Meg and Jeff
53. 2:12concur their dogs seem to have some kind
54. 2:14of canine ESP they knew what they were
55. 2:18all doing and they knew how long to stay
56. 2:21still for so it's just amazing how they
57. 2:24can communicate without actually
58. 2:26speaking that side of it is kind of
59. 2:29magical really
60. 2:34that was me trying to freeze for just
61. 2:36five seconds it's impossible I'm too
62. 2:38Twitchy so forget about four whole
63. 2:41minutes it's clear these dogs can do
64. 2:43some amazing things right but can they
65. 2:45really freeze themselves in mid step
66. 2:48let's take the video to our experts
67. 2:54zoologist Roxy Furman considers whether
68. 2:57a supernatural Force may have terrified
69. 2:59the dogs into a form of paralysis dogs
70. 3:02definitely do freeze when they're afraid
71. 3:04so that could be something that's made
72. 3:06them scared but there's nothing else in
73. 3:08their body language that indicates fee
74. 3:10their ears are up their tails up rieslas
75. 3:13are hunting dogs but I don't think that
76. 3:15they can be that still for the entire
77. 3:17duration of a four minute video without
78. 3:20kind of any movement it looks like it's
79. 3:22been edited in some way to me
80. 3:25compare this other video of hunting
81. 3:27these laws with Megan Jeffs you can see
82. 3:29these other dogs don't maintain their
83. 3:31posture as well or as long so maybe
84. 3:34Roxy's right Megan Jeff's dog video
85. 3:36can't be real so there are apps that can
86. 3:40be downloaded on these mobile devices
87. 3:41that can animate certain areas of a
88. 3:44picture while preserving other areas
89. 3:47Frozen in Time
90. 3:48although these apps can deceive a viewer
91. 3:52we found no evidence to support that
92. 3:53this file was manipulated or slowed down
93. 3:56or Frozen in any way
94. 3:59so this is in fact real
95. 4:01still biology Professor Floyd Hayes
96. 4:04believes this is just the product of
97. 4:06centuries of breeding this is a behavior
98. 4:08that is selectively bred for in several
99. 4:10breeds of dogs although it is reinforced
100. 4:13in dogs by training in fact they
101. 4:16actually can be trained to lift a pub of
102. 4:20the ground when they are pointing
103. 4:22these may be onto something here at the
104. 4:24end of the video we do see the dogs
105. 4:26unfreeze as soon as a bird flies away
106. 4:29but here's the catch Meg and Jeff say
107. 4:32they have never trained their dogs to
108. 4:33behave like this we teach them you know
109. 4:36sit and stay but this this was coming on
110. 4:40a completely different scale and
111. 4:42something now
112. 4:43I can't see being taught to them
113. 4:46whatsoever
114. 4:51our verdict this is still an animal
115. 4:53anomaly these three vislers really did
116. 4:56freeze in place for four minutes and if
117. 4:58Meg and Jeff truly didn't train them to
118. 5:00do this how'd they stop time is still a
119. 5:03doggone mystery
120. 5:05October 2018 Jason assalin is giving
121. 5:09friends a tour along the shores of Lake
122. 5:11Superior near Marquette Michigan as
123. 5:13we're walking along the Lakeshore I
124. 5:15heard somebody gasp and I looked over
125. 5:16and I saw them pointing out into the
126. 5:18water and said what is that out there
127. 5:23Jason pulls out his camera and starts
128. 5:25recording
129. 5:27there's what appears to be a tall and
130. 5:29large object on the horizon so let's
131. 5:31take a closer look
132. 5:34the object is gray in color but the
133. 5:36shape appears pretty blurry Jason and
134. 5:38his friends think it might be a ship
135. 5:40the ship would have had to have been
136. 5:42hundreds of feet into the air we never
137. 5:45thought that it was a ghost ship at the
138. 5:47time but when I got home and watched the
139. 5:49video
140. 5:50that's all I could think of we just saw
141. 5:53a ghost ship
142. 5:55since the late 1800s there have been
143. 5:57hundreds and hundreds of shipwrecks that
144. 5:59have occurred on Lake Superior it's
145. 6:02definitely a dangerous patch of water
146. 6:03that is essential for trade but very
147. 6:07risky to travel from the SS Western
148. 6:10Reserve in 1892 to the Hudson in 1901
149. 6:13many large Freighters have sunk in bad
150. 6:15weather only to be seen again allegedly
151. 6:18plying the waters long after a tragic
152. 6:21wreck according to local Legend one of
153. 6:24the most famous ships to have gone down
154. 6:25is the SS Bannock burn locals call it
155. 6:29the Flying Dutchman of Lake Superior and
156. 6:32people still claim to see it to this day
157. 6:34that's a reference to the legendary
158. 6:36Flying Dutchman the doomed 17th century
159. 6:39ship that's been cited and spoken of for
160. 6:41centuries Jason can't help but wonder if
161. 6:44this is the mysterious phenomenon he's
162. 6:46captured on camera we just witnessed
163. 6:48something out of this world
164. 6:52there's a poem about the world's most
165. 6:54famous Phantom ship with the line they
166. 6:57who see the Flying Dutchman never never
167. 7:00reach the shore but when it comes to
168. 7:02getting answers Never Say Never here's
169. 7:04what we found
170. 7:09first science writer and forensic video
171. 7:11analyst Mick West focuses on the shape
172. 7:14of the object in Jason's video he notes
173. 7:16that most famous shipwrecks in Lake
174. 7:18Superior are Freighters with steam
175. 7:20engines
176. 7:21this looks different
177. 7:22it looks like a sail ship I don't know
178. 7:24whether they have big sales ships on the
179. 7:26Great Lakes but that's what it looks
180. 7:28like and if that's unexpected then
181. 7:30that's a clue that it's not actually a
182. 7:32ship
183. 7:33next the team considers another
184. 7:35possibility
185. 7:36physicist Dr Michio Kaku says it might
186. 7:39be a mirage a mirage is caused by
187. 7:42temperature inversion
188. 7:44and dense denser bends light more
189. 7:48than hot air a temperature inversion can
190. 7:51make images below the Horizon visible
191. 7:53distorted in the distance
192. 7:56so could the weather be causing this
193. 7:57effect
194. 7:59atmospheric scientist Dr Deanna hence
195. 8:01looked at the data the day the sighting
196. 8:03happened and sees just such an inversion
197. 8:13conversion and that can lead to that
198. 8:16warm air sitting on top of cold air this
199. 8:19can actually really change how light can
200. 8:23propagate through the atmosphere then
201. 8:25Mick West tries to put the pieces
202. 8:27together
203. 8:28could a temperature inversion have
204. 8:29distorted something that is already
205. 8:31there
206. 8:32turns out there's a small island 12
207. 8:35miles offshore in this area that's
208. 8:36normally hard to see up above
209. 8:40we have a view of the island
210. 8:43so this is the direction we're looking
211. 8:45from so I just simply lined up the
212. 8:49lighthouse here in the top
213. 8:53with the lighthouse down here so that
214. 8:56lines up perfectly
215. 9:02what is that thing the key for us was
216. 9:05the temperature data and that Island our
217. 9:08verdict Mirage a temperature inversion
218. 9:11caused an island that's usually a bump
219. 9:13on the horizon to look like a phantom
220. 9:15ship it's January 17 2020 in Fargo North
221. 9:20Dakota winter has really set in with
222. 9:22packed snow and ice on the ground and
223. 9:24temperatures dipping to one degree
224. 9:25overnight after looking at an office
225. 9:28space to rent accountant and mother of
226. 9:30six Nicole hebner returns to her car and
227. 9:33Records something very strange it's very
228. 9:35icy it was so windy that I could hardly
229. 9:37even walk on the sidewalk because it was
230. 9:39almost blowing my feet out from
231. 9:41underneath of me and I noticed that
232. 9:43there was a light pole in the parking
233. 9:44lot that was just wiggling and it was
234. 9:46rattling really loudly everyone thought
235. 9:48it was really unique and crazy and
236. 9:50special it just made you think that we
237. 9:52can all feel the cold it affects things
238. 9:54that even aren't alive like our cars and
239. 9:57the buildings and here's what makes this
240. 9:59a mystery we can see that the wind was
241. 10:01blowing look at that bush but strangely
242. 10:04there's an identical pole in the
243. 10:05background that doesn't seem to move at
244. 10:07all
245. 10:09animism is a religious belief that
246. 10:11objects and plants have souls and while
247. 10:14there is no way to test whether that's
248. 10:16true or not we can try to see if there's
249. 10:18a scientific explanation for what we're
250. 10:21seeing here no matter how uncanny it may
251. 10:23be so let's have our experts weigh in
252. 10:27[Music]
253. 10:29could the cold have caused this
254. 10:31atmospheric scientist Dr Deanna hence
255. 10:33has pulled up the weather data from that
256. 10:35day when temperatures were well below
257. 10:36the freezing Mark typically speaking
258. 10:39these kind of polls easily withstand
259. 10:42cold temperatures we see these kind of
260. 10:45light poles all over the country and
261. 10:47they're built to withstand a wide range
262. 10:49of conditions that takes us to the wind
263. 10:52could it be to blame given that hint
264. 10:55that the wind was affecting the bush
265. 10:57within the video screen I just wanted to
266. 11:00check and see the wind speeds it turns
267. 11:03out that they were going at a pretty
268. 11:04healthy clip anywhere from roughly about
269. 11:0730 to closer to 40 miles per hour in
270. 11:11fact hin says a blizzard was blowing
271. 11:13through the region that weekend at times
272. 11:15causing whiteout conditions but
273. 11:17physicist Dr Hakeem oluchihi says it's
274. 11:20not only the speed of the wind that
275. 11:21matters but its direction and frequency
276. 11:24any gust of wind is not going to cause a
277. 11:27light pole to Shake in this way what
278. 11:30we're looking at potentially is resonant
279. 11:32phenomena and so what matters is the
280. 11:35frequency of the wind everything solid
281. 11:38has a natural frequency of vibration
282. 11:41well you don't have to hit an object
283. 11:44with a hammer you can hit it with the
284. 11:46wind the wind makes vibrations in this
285. 11:50land post and these vibrations are
286. 11:52magnified if they resonate with the
287. 11:55length of the Lamppost so when the
288. 11:58vibration of the wind heading the light
289. 11:59post has the same frequency as the
290. 12:01natural frequency of the post it
291. 12:03amplifies the vibration causing this
292. 12:05resonance effect physicist Dr Michio
293. 12:07Kaku says if the residents were to get
294. 12:09strong enough the light pole might
295. 12:11actually collapse that's what happened
296. 12:12in 1940 in Washington the Tacoma Rose
297. 12:17Bridge collapsed as a consequence of
298. 12:20wind wind passing over the bridge
299. 12:23causing the entire bridge to oscillate
300. 12:26like a snake
301. 12:27this is a phenomenon known as Aero
302. 12:30elastic flutter which occurs when the
303. 12:31energy from the wind is rapidly absorbed
304. 12:33by the structure and converted into
305. 12:35mechanical vibrations
306. 12:41so our verdict it was certainly cold
307. 12:44enough in North Dakota to make people
308. 12:45shiver but the light post is vibrating
309. 12:48so violently because the wind gusts are
310. 12:50causing resonance
311. 12:52and the adjacent light post isn't moving
312. 12:54because the wind is hitting it at a
313. 12:56different frequency perhaps because the
314. 12:58vibrating post is in a tight wind tunnel
315. 13:02it's May 2020 and when Alexa walkovitz
316. 13:05learned her mother's dog Lala was lost
317. 13:07she and her friend Anna did something
318. 13:09you might find hard to believe
319. 13:19what well believe it or not it's all
320. 13:23about an app called Rando Nautica
321. 13:26Alexa and her friend set an intention
322. 13:28and thought of her mother's dog the
323. 13:30Rando Nautica app which claims to direct
324. 13:32people to a real world encounter with
325. 13:34those intentions then displayed random
326. 13:37GPS coordinates near her home in the
327. 13:39Mojave Desert we're walking forward
328. 13:41walking forward and Anna turns to me and
329. 13:44kind of like says what's that
330. 13:47there was a little animal where did you
331. 13:50come from and I realized it was a dog I
332. 13:53didn't even see it
333. 13:55take another look out of nowhere this
334. 13:58dog appears in the desert
335. 14:01now it turned out this dog wasn't her
336. 14:03mother's it had escaped from a nearby
337. 14:05property and although Alexa never found
338. 14:08Lala she is convinced the app Taps into
339. 14:11the power of the Mind
340. 14:12kind of a healing Adventure because
341. 14:14maybe that was my dog speaking to that
342. 14:17dog and was trying to say to you like
343. 14:19listen it's okay here I am to comfort
344. 14:22you for a moment
345. 14:24experiences like Alexis made Rando
346. 14:26Nautica The Craze of 2020. in just three
347. 14:29months the ab Drew over 15 million
348. 14:31downloads with thousands of posts on
349. 14:34social media of people declaring their
350. 14:36intentions
351. 14:37the intention for my random journey is
352. 14:39purple
353. 14:40heading to random locations is that a
354. 14:43purple house
355. 14:46and finding their wishes at least
356. 14:48partially fulfilled
357. 14:52like thinking of purple and then having
358. 14:54the app lead to this backyard
359. 14:57blowing my mind right now
360. 15:00does the world of the Mind connect with
361. 15:02the physical world can random Nautica
362. 15:04really manifest our intentions we asked
363. 15:08our friendly physicist to come up with
364. 15:09an experiment to test it
365. 15:11[Music]
366. 15:14Dr Hakeem oluchhei and Dr Michio Kaku
367. 15:17give us our guidelines in order to test
368. 15:19this idea to see if it works you have to
369. 15:22do a lot of tests to remove the
370. 15:23statistical uncertainties and you have
371. 15:25to keep very careful records of when
372. 15:27you're right and when you're wrong
373. 15:32second when it comes to a goal make it
374. 15:35specific and not metaphorical my
375. 15:38intention was adventure and cool stuff
376. 15:43and this is so cool
377. 15:45not something that looks pretty wow wow
378. 15:48no cash that to me would be a very
379. 15:52convincing experiment
380. 15:55so that's just what we did asking our
381. 15:58test subject to declare cash as her
382. 16:00intention I
383. 16:02of course
384. 16:05random GPS coordinates
385. 16:08now let's see where we're going
386. 16:12it's part of a hairbrush
387. 16:14so far no cash
388. 16:17all right my intention one hundred
389. 16:20dollars
390. 16:21100 dollars
391. 16:23[Music]
392. 16:29I found a weird Buckle thing our subject
393. 16:34keeps repeating the experiment
394. 16:37attention
395. 16:38100 then at one location no dollar bills
396. 16:43but
397. 16:51so we didn't find any money at this
398. 16:53location
399. 16:54um but there is a bank really close to
400. 16:55here so you never know maybe that's what
401. 16:57drew me here like mini Rando Nautica
402. 16:59Stories the exact intention didn't
403. 17:01manifest
404. 17:03but something kind of related so what's
405. 17:05happening here Kaku believed the
406. 17:08explanation is something called the
407. 17:09synchronicity effect a phenomenon where
408. 17:12people interpret two coincidental events
409. 17:14as intertwined wow synchronicity for
410. 17:18example is you're thinking about Joe and
411. 17:21Joe calls you on the telephone and you
412. 17:23say to yourself aha I knew it I'm
413. 17:26psychic
414. 17:27it's kind of blowing my mind right now
415. 17:30but Kaku explains while everyone
416. 17:32remembers the occasional hits most of
417. 17:34the time they're misses you forget about
418. 17:37them but think of all the times when you
419. 17:39thought about Jane and Harry and they
420. 17:41didn't call you
421. 17:46our verdict most likely coincidence
