if mystery had a face spanning the vast southeastern reaches of the Alaskan wilderness up to its mountain ranges an unusual number of hikers boats and planes vanish here without a trace in fact the state of Alaska has not only twice the American national average of people reported missing but also the lowest statistics for people found could we talk about this is it the unforgiving weather wild animals immense uncharted terrain or something more sinister the indigenous planket people tell stories of a shape-shifting being called Kush Kaka meaning land otter man who mimics the screams of children to lure unwary travelers to their deaths others blame Bigfoot or proposed that the area is a vile vortex like the Bermuda Triangle linked to electromagnetic aberrations to reduce it to simplified terms they were the weather was just plain rotten number 9 the stony Tunguska River also known as the pot common diet and Eska River in 1908 an explosion 1,000 times greater than the nuclear bomb dropped on Hiroshima tore through the air over Siberia witnesses reported a column of bluish light as the sky seemed to split in half and catch fire it's called the Tunguska event and it was a comet or a meteor or something like that the blast sent a shock wave that knocked people off their feet and flattened 770 square miles of forest toppling an estimated 80 million trees when the first expedition arrived to investigate native guides would not enter the impact zone fearing people they called the valley men scientific consensus attributes the blast to the explosion of a meteorite in midair leading some to blame natural gas or even a collision with alien spacecraft fatigue alpha Santa Ana cos explosion gives an moose more number-8 the devil see also known as the dragon's triangle and the Pacific Bermuda Triangle this is a region of the Pacific Ocean that south of Japan where several ships have disappeared notably the Japanese research vessel ko Maru number five in the early 1950s sailors have reported problems with electronic instruments and sightings of unmanned ghost ships American author and linguist Charles Berlitz made the area around Miyake island famous with his book the dragon's triangle in 1989 although authorities claim the Caio Maru was destroyed by natural forces while the crew was investigating the eruption of an underwater volcano Berlitz attributed the incident to unknown supernatural forces and even blamed the dragon's triangle for the disappearance of aviation pioneer Amelia Earhart this is Itasca did you receive transmission number seven island of the dolls also known as Isla de las Monica's as you navigate this creepy island just south of Mexico City thousands of small unblinking eyes watch your passage oh my god the island is actually man-made dating all the way back to the floating gardens of Aztec times as legend has it owner who Leon Santana Barrera found a little drowned girl in the canal and a doll floating close by which he hung in a tree is a sign of respect shortly following this act he started to hear whispers footsteps and screams following him in the dark Santana Barrera spent the next half-century hanging dolls to pacify the girl's spirit he found the dolls in the canals and in the trash he started hanging them up to protect him and to try to scare away the spirit of the girl when he died in 2001 his body was eerily found in the same spot he'd found the drowned girl number 6 the Nazca lines the lines themselves directed you farther east some 2,000 years ago hundreds of complex geoglyphs were carved into the desert sands of southern Peru I always thought that they brought the rocks here and that they had to build these shapes composed of thousands of lines the geometric figures and animal and plant designs cover arid plateau south of Lima more than 50 miles in size how are such complex designs created without aerial technology why did these people create shapes in the soil that are only visible from the air or hilltops while scholars claim the lines were constructed using simple surveying equipment others speculate the use of hot-air balloons or that the lines were once alien airfields various other uses have been proposed from religious symbolism to astronomical calendars to irrigation but their ultimate purpose remains unknown they must be some kind of message but it's a message we can't understand number 5 North Sentinel island the isolated Indians are being forced into ever smaller regions an isolated indigenous tribe has lived on this island in the Bay of Bengal for an estimated 60,000 years fringed by perilous reefs the island is difficult to reach and boats the do land are met with a hail of arrows [Music] as a result little is known about the Sentinelese their language is unclassified and population estimates range from fifty to four hundred during one failed expedition as tensions rose between locals and anthropologists cornered on the reefs some of the indigenous women made off with warriors and proceeded to have sex on the beach what are the beliefs and customs of the Sentinelese what do they think of our metal ships and flying machines this type believes in total isolation it will not tolerate the splinter number 4 the Michigan triangle it's been known to actually chase vessels and try to capture them often compared to the Bermuda Triangle this region in Lake Michigan is the site of numerous maritime and aviation disasters particularly notorious is the strait linking Lake Michigan and Green Bay known as port Dame or or death's door which is littered with shipwrecks thanks to hidden shoals and unpredictable winds but the most famous incident was the crash of Northwest orient Airlines flight 2501 in 1950 which killed all 58 passengers and crew and was the worst airline accident to happen in the United States to that point therein lies much of the mystery why was this plane so far off its course only light debris and human body fragments were recovered although mass burial sites were recently discovered in local cemeteries annual searches for the wreckage continue van hees and a search team have been hunting Lake Michigan for the planes debris number three Easter Island 887 monolithic stone statues watch over this remote Pacific island carved by the Rapa Nui people as early as the Year 1250 most of these silent sentinels lined the coast with their backs to the sea what compelled people to build and transport such giant figures some of which weigh over 80 tons while oral histories recount that the statues walked into place of their own volition scholars have proposed various theories including that they were moved by rocking their bases back and forth scholars speculate that the statues represent deified ancestors but the island stone Guardians could not protect the Rapa Nui people whose population has been greatly abolished by deforestation European diseases and Peruvian slavers number two Stonehenge who built it how was it built and why this is the name given to a ring of standing stones around five thousand years old that are surrounded by hundreds of ancient burial mounds in Wiltshire England scholars have debated the significance of Stonehenge for decades these are some special stones how did prehistoric people transport the giant Stones some from Hills 150 miles away hypotheses include long tracks of logs sleighs on greased tracks and of course aliens oh and let's not forget Merlin or Giants opinions also differ as to the site's function was it a burial site a place of healing or an astronomical observatory according to the Royal College of Art researchers the blue stones have quote unusual acoustic properties ringing when struck which was often associated in ancient cultures with mystical properties I believe this is a meeting place to connect with the ancestors I am utterly convinced the stones are linked to the ancestors before we unveil our number one pick here are some honorable mentions I've said 20 seconds walking into the screaming woods we hear what sounds like a scream from way back deeper into the woods rumor has it there is a secret base hidden underneath the Archuleta Mesa care the mountain overlooks Dulce some people in towns say the base is run by aliens working with our federal government to conduct mind-control and genetic experiments yeah oh yeah genes ghosts come from up there [Music] number one area 51 and that my dear Earthlings is the key to understanding the entire universe US Air Force facility or storehouse for extra-terrestrial technologies located deep in the Nevada desert this remote research installation has been used as a test site for experimental aircraft and weapons with the dry bed of groom Lake providing an ideal airfield but the secrecy around the site and a string of alleged UFO sightings have stimulated allegations that the base houses crashed and reverse engineered alien spacecraft and even alien collaborators while skeptics suggests the UFOs were reflections of light on the broad fuselage of aircraft such as the Lockheed u2 people claiming to be former employees
