Hello and welcome. I'm Jeffrey Mishlove. Today we are releasing the third preview for the fourthcoming documentary about the PK man. I'm here with the director and co-producer Lance Mongia of the film. We are still attempting to raise money through a crowdfunder campaign. The links for you if you're interested in helping us move this project along will be found in the description of this video. And before we show you the preview, Lance and I are going to share a few tidbits about what we are continuing to learn about the
00:00:41
remarkable career of Ted Owens, the PK man. Welcome, Lance. Hi Jeffrey and thanks for for having me back again and thank you for continuing to make this movie for me. We're we're uh you know sort of full steam ahead and still again just trying to raise funds to finish the documentary. We're still planning to go out and gather some more interviews and uh that kind of thing for this. And I thought that today would be fun to talk about, I think, one of the more interesting aspects of the whole Ted
00:01:11
Owens story that often really gets overlooked, you know, because uh you know, Ted Owens being this person who claimed to do all of these amazing things with his mind claimed that the powers came from the space intelligences. And I thought that was it's a really interesting subject. And synchronistically, I've met several people over the years that have claimed to have somewhat similar experiences to the kinds of things that happened to Ted Owens that claimed that really sort of amped up his psychoinetic abilities and
00:01:39
allowed him to do these things. And you know, these encounters with these sort of mantis looking kind of grasshopper looking insect beings. And it's something that originally several years ago I wasn't really familiar with, but that I've become very familiar with just because of the the literature and because of a lot of experiences that that people have. Like sometimes randomly like I'll strike up a conversation with someone and they'll bring up these these beings which I find really interesting. But Jeffrey, maybe
00:02:08
you could tell us a little bit about like what his connection to these beings really was. Well, when I first encountered Ted Owens, the nomenclature that's now very popular, manted beings, wasn't around at all. And so, when he described these insecttoid beings that from whom he seemed to derive his remarkable powers, I I didn't know what to make of it. And it did seem weird and strange. Subsequently, we have learned I've actually interviewed on this channel a fellow named David J. Brown, uh, we recently released his video about
00:02:47
DNT, DMT entities. And he claims that under the influence of DMT, he had an experience almost 50 years ago in which a mantedlike being appeared and operated on his brain. and he claims that he's never been the same since that it opened up all sorts of psychic and intuitive abilities and that he remembers that day and he thinks about it every day of his life since then. So his story although completely different in origin than Ted Owen seems remarkably similar and he even drew a picture of the mantedlike
00:03:28
being operating on his brain. We'll show it here. And so that's very very similar to the report I got from Ted Owens that I just honestly didn't know what to make of it. He also claimed well they're not really insectoid. He said they're actually energy beings but they take the shape of of of an insect but that's not really who they are. He claimed that they were hyperdimensional and that they lived in a giant invisible UFO hovering over the planet and that he would send them telepathic messages to perform
00:04:08
various functions affect the weather, affect a volcano, affect a hurricane or a a tornado, a drought or a cold spell or a heat spell or a football team or a basketball team. and they for reasons of their own were happy to comply for the most part. And and so that's how he produced over 160 demonstrations over a 20-year period. He was quite consistent and in the sense that roughly twothirds of those demonstrations worked out the way he said they would. These manted beings seem to be almost like puppet
00:04:51
masters in a way is the way they're often portrayed in in sort of experiencer stories. I know Whitley Striber uh you know has talked about these these sort of grasshopper looking beings sort of being kind of in the background while these small gray beings are are are walking around sort of interacting directly. oftentimes there's a sexual component to these stories where there's almost like a uh like a hybrid breeding program going on or something apparently where uh um you know these these beings are involved um
00:05:21
and they tend to just pop up in in the the literature of the alien abduction you know ET abduction you know sort of experience again and again you know what's interesting is before I even got into any of this when I first got into meditation it was probably 2011 2012 I had a meditation where these two very tall like mantis looking sort of beings but in these like kind of robes were standing over me and like looking down and they were wearing these robes with all these kind of hieroglyphics on it
00:05:52
and I and it kind of shocked me out of the meditation at the time and uh that was my only experience with them. I had no other knowledge of them whatsoever uh until many years later, you know, going starting to work on third eye spies and going to some conventions and things like that. And then I would start to hear these stories and and now sometimes people will just come up and tell me these these uh these stories about these beings. I'm pretty sure, Lance, considering that Ted Owens claimed that
00:06:18
he was an experiment of the space intelligences, like a a canary in the coal mine that were going to endow him with these powers in order to the the way he expressed it to conduct something of a sociological experiment. How would the human community respond to a person who had his enormous talent? And if that scenario is correct and I I don't see anything contradicting it, then I'm sure the space intelligences are also observing you and me and this activity that we're engaged in now with the documentary and for all I know will also
00:07:00
be affecting the viewers. You know what's what's interesting about these manted beings and it sort of plays to what Ted Owens had said regarding them being you know possibly like uh beings of of energy that then kind of come into the world in this form is uh a lot of the other stories where people will have screen memories like sometimes like with Mike Cleland's book on owls like you know they'll talk about just seeing these kind of like owl eyes and having this this strange memory of owls before
00:07:29
there's an abduction experience. Other times, you know, I heard a story from a very high ranking CIA person that we interviewed for Third Eye Spies, how a physicist friend of his kept having these experiences when he would go out to his cabin in the woods and he would see this raccoon, you know, standing on two legs and like beckoning to him and then he would lose uh hours of time, you know, and then come to like an on his bed in his cabin, you know, kind of sounds like Rocket Raccoon or something from the
00:08:00
Marvel movies really, but that you know this was long before that. It just makes you think like what was that and and are we sort of is are these beings able to actually manipulate our perception to the point that they can make us see whatever we want to see or what they want us to see. So that also would explain Owens's sort of evolution as to like what he was seeing over the years because you know it didn't start with the the manted beings. He had had this UFO experience which we dramatized in some film footage that
00:08:33
we're going to show you today. But this was in like what 1955. And uh and then he had started having other experiences where he thought like what was it? He was seeing the spirit of nature and it was this kind of like ghostly apparition of a woman that he would see and then and then and other things and then it eventually evolved into Twitter and Twitter the grasshopper like beans. Is that right? Well, originally he thought it was a female entity he called Big Lorny who was something of a poltergeist. But yes,
00:09:07
so it it evolved over time and his explanations about was he using his own psychokinesis or was he simply telepaththing messages to the space intelligences who were performing everything? There was a lot of ambiguity around that. I was really lucky to spend some time with um Jacques Valet when we were making the phenomenon together because he was an adviser on that film and he would come out to where we were editing on the weekends and we would just chat and you know Jacques has been researching the subject far more than
00:09:40
anybody probably alive today. I mean, he's been doing it since he was in his early 20s and what is he in his 80s now? And and um he really kind of at this point throws his hands up in the air and says, "You know what? The entire phenomenon doesn't make sense." And he's no longer convinced that it even is extraterrestrial. you know, the the um explanation of of energy that you brought up earlier, Jeffrey, that this was energy that can kind of somehow form into a certain appearance is not as unlikely as I think some people might
00:10:08
think, you know, because like the way Jacques would put it is it's like this appears in whatever shape it needs to appear in order to teach us something or to grow really is is what his explanation kind of I think is in in some of his books. And uh you know it's almost like holographic in in nature you know and that the universe you know whether it be fairies in the uh you know 16th century or uh you know manted beings you know in spaceships today. It's kind of like where are we at as a society and what can we sort of accept
00:10:40
as what is paranormal? Well, we will have just released uh before this video gets released an interview with Tom Campbell, the author of My Big toe. And he likes to refer to the larger consciousness system, which is in control of this physical reality, created this physical reality. He would say we're living in a simulation, but very much like we're inside of a computer game. And the larger consciousness system, whether it's banded beings or reptilians or angels or fairies, the larger consciousness system
00:11:20
has the ability to interject these entities into our physical reality and does so for the purpose of helping us to awaken to our larger consciousness. And actually, that's the deeper message of the Ted Owens story. I think this isn't as much about what someone enabled 10 o Ted Owens to do. It's more about what are we all capable of being able to do. And what's interesting about a lot of these experiences is that that's often what it really comes down to is is uh it appears like you know there's this
00:11:57
energy that exists that is trying to push us forward somehow. And and uh again, another thing I think we've gotten into in a previous interview is once you experience something that is so far outside of your norm, it's like something breaks in your reality and and then people will start to have all sorts of different experiences. And this is something that in euphology is sort of the dirty little secret, you know, in in that a lot of these experiencers will have an encounter with a craft or or a
00:12:24
being of some kind and then lots of strange things will start happening around them. and and often this time it's things that they don't talk about. This reminds me of a story of a uh record executive that was friends with a UFO researcher friend of mine and he had seen a UFO, you know, and he had uh spoken to my researcher friend about it and he kind of confided that the strangest thing and he feared he was actually losing his mind over this was uh he started to have other experiences after that that weren't UFO related but
00:12:55
were sort of poltergeist related. And in one instance, the weirdest one, which he was very embarrassed to even talk about, he said he was sitting at his mixing panel late one night working alone in the studio and he hears what sounds like a band playing and and he looks over his shoulder and walking through the doorway is a line of literal fairies with musical instruments playing musical instruments and then going out the other side of the door. And he's sitting there, he says, "I don't do drugs. I
00:13:22
wasn't drunk. you know, I I there was nothing wrong with me at that time, but I think I might be losing my mind. And and and and these are the sorts of things that that you hear that are so bizarre and and sound so fanciful that people just won't discuss them. Um but often times it's after an initial paranormal experience like seeing a UFO. So what does that really say? A classic case is Kenneth Arnold, the fellow in 1947 who was flying his small aircraft near Mount Reneer when he first saw what
00:13:54
he identified as flying saucers and started the whole UFO flap. He also had these personal experiences and I think we now know about this because his family members have come out and reported on it but it was kept under wraps for decades. But it is very common and even with Jacques. Jacques told a story about investigating a UFO case and the uh the witnesses would describe a certain symbol on a craft that multiple witnesses saw that were verified. And then Jacques went and researched this symbol. And he said, "I believe the
00:14:31
witnesses that the witnesses saw something, but the symbol turns out to be a cow brand of a local rancher in the area." So So I say he says, "So how do I reconcile that?" He says it's like someone's playing a practical joke, you know, a cosmic practical joke. Like like why are you using a a local cow brand as a symbol on a UFO? It doesn't make any sense. And and uh and again sort of leads to what Jock would call this sort of like trickster energy, you know, where where uh you know, like what we're
00:15:01
seeing may not necessarily be what we're actually seeing. It's archetypal. I'm sure a Yungian psychologist would have a lot to say about it. But here here's a key point, Lance. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if our viewers just from watching this 20 minute video that you've just put together have experiences of their own. And I'm sure we'd be very happy to hear from viewers who would like to report on anything they notice in their lives after watching our little video. Yeah, please. I mean, write that in the comments down
00:15:36
below. I would love to hear anybody's story and and also you can go to our crowdfunding campaign page and you can leave messages there as well. We'd love it if you'd become a contributor. But even if you just want to start a dialogue, uh I've had a couple of people reach out and ask uh about possibly starting a Discord page or something like that where uh where we can have dialogue about these kinds of things cuz uh there's not a lot of places that people can go to to talk about this kind of stuff. I'm happy to be a venue, you
00:16:03
know, for that. But I agree that like just even watching a movie can influence your consciousness somehow. I think that's a real thing. I mean, uh, there's stories about people watching like a Poltergeist or The Exorcist or something and then something will fly across the room or something and I I' I've heard stories like that and it may just be again kind of you'll see something and it acts as a permission slip for you to then have similar experiences. So, what we're going to show is uh initially it's
00:16:32
the five-minute teaser that you've seen before, just for people who haven't seen it yet, just to set the story. And then these are a collection of scenes that are not necessarily appearing in in the order they're going to be in in the final film. But, uh we do start with Ted's origin story with the with these manted beings and and uh sort of seeing a a craft in 1955 and then and then going through some of the other aspects of his work. These are all rough scenes. you know, you we're we're giving you a a
00:16:59
preview of some rough scenes. We're still going to go out and get more interviews. That's what we still really need and we need support for this. We need the help of regular contributors like you guys. Uh and we're I'm incredibly grateful for the people that have already contributed. We're going to be sending out some some of the uh perks soon. You know, there's some really interesting perks on there. You can get a class that Jeffrey cured that was done by Ted Owens as well as some other advanced looks at things. So, we hope
00:17:26
you enjoy the the footage. I guess we should just sign off and let people watch it. [Music] [Music] Fella, a friend of mine in Chicago saw an article today in which you say some nasty things about me in the tattler. You even have the gall to insinuate as he explained at long distance that I might be a fake and a phony. Let's take it one step at a time. You have to be stupid. You know, dumb. No one in this world in their right mind would take me on. Not after I have documented causing hurricanes with
00:18:26
my mind. Also control military forces. Heal people given up by doctors for dead. Control radar installations. Control pro football teams and on and on. And mind you, we are speaking of documented before the fact action. 168 different demonstrations he performed over a period of 20 years. Twothirds of them worked out the way he said they would for events that by chance alone you wouldn't expect. You have chosen to insult me and I say you are a dirty low down yella coward. That's what I label you.
00:19:18
I am 52 years old with a pot belly and years out of condition, but it would be a pleasure to give you a lesson in manners. Ted Owens, self-professed master of mind over matter that could control nature itself by the force of psychokinesis or PK. and he would be the greatest teller of tall tales in history if not or the evidence [Applause] and uh also predicted he could make some UFOs appear and even that happened published in the newspapers. He creates what he calls a picture a PK map an image of what he
00:20:04
wants to have happen. He focuses on that image. He sends the image telepathically to invisible aliens hovering above the Earth in a giant UFO he calls the space intelligences. They sit in front of a big screen and they make all of these things happen. Mine is perhaps the greatest story in the entire history of the world. UFO entities have given me an advanced brain, the brain of future men. Now they want to see what I will do with it and whether I will misuse my powers. So far I have not. He called
00:20:47
himself the PK man. Lightning is my specialty. [Music] It was January or February 1955. Ted Owens was driving with his daughter Lorie on a lonely road outside Fort Worth. It was the day that for PK man, it all began to come together. [Music] This is amazing. Daddy, look. What's that? [Music] It vanished like a breath held too long, as if the sky itself had blinked. To Ted Owens, it was no accident. It was the beginning of something vast. A signal cast across the silence of space, answered not with words, but with
00:22:24
presence. What came next would strip away the veil of the ordinary, rewire his mind, and draw him into a shadow war between the waking world and something far stranger. Something [Music] watching. Heat. Heat. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] into the practice field. He falls out and he completes this one to Dodson. Over the middle, wide open is Dodson for the first down. After the sky blinked shut, something opened in him. A whisper at first. Ideas came unbidden. Maps, storm paths, pressure lines that pulse like
00:24:18
veins across the land. He wasn't just seeing the weather anymore. He was inside it. And behind it all, a presence watching from somewhere beyond the clouds, waiting to be [Music] heard. He got out of his chair one day, walked outside, and decided he could call down lightning. [Music] He went for a walk near the rural southern farmhouse where he resided with his wife and demanded lightning strike. It did. The ensuing storm scattered his wife's laundry and she berated him for bringing the weather down on them.
00:25:08
How could you do this? It wasn't the first or last insult he would ever receive in the face of such miracles. And I have waited too long, over long for some cooperation from somebody, waiting for some scientists somewhere to make an approach. It's February 5th, 1976. Palo Alto, California. All over the city, residents look up to the sky and witness something extraordinary. He said, "Well, I'm going to free the snowstorms of the likes that you've never seen there in Northern California." And it's going to snow like
00:26:07
hell over this next weekend. And it'll be published in your newspaper, your local newspaper. There'll be such a big snowstorm that the papers will write about it because there'd been nothing like there for 50 years. January 25th, 1976. To the scientists I know, gentlemen, it is time time to give you a demonstration to strike fear into your hearts. I am not your ordinary orthodox human. This all occurred. We exchanged telegrams that all weekend and by the next Monday with an enormous snowstorm and nobody could imagine where it came
00:26:57
from cuz it was not forecast. Inside the labs of Stanford Research Institute, two of the CIA's top scientists, Russell Tar and Hal Putoff, watch stunned. Their focus not on the weather, nor the psychics they tasked to remotely view Soviet secrets, but on the man who claimed he would make this happen. I've been in California now for 62 years. And the only snowstorm that I can recall ever happening is the one that was sent to us by Ted Owens. although it was not known why we were doing it, but it's
00:27:34
generally known in the public that we're looking for people to come forward with examples of uh paranormal experiences. We were contacted by Ted Owens who said that uh he had a lifetime of really remarkable experiences. He would like to come to SRRI and show us their flying saucers and their rainstorms. and that's just the exact opposite of what we wanted to do with a lowprofile program. They got very angry with me. Despite their curiosity, Owens was too hot for the scientists at SRRI to handle.
00:28:14
Obviously, for the official program we had at SRRI, we had to be very meticulous in the scientific sense, but nonetheless, it was very evocative. You and Hail were very excited about this character Ted Owens. He had a big file sitting on a shelf that you and Hail were eager to get rid of. And so they decided to quietly hand off the box of files, correspondents, and newspaper clippings they accumulated on him to the young intern, PhD candidate Jeffrey Michishlov. 168 different demonstrations he performed over a period of 20 years. The
00:28:57
files contain letters sent in advance to scientists talking about the effects that he would claim to produce through psychokinesis. My conclusion was that roughly twothirds of them worked out the way he said they would. And uh for events that by chance alone you wouldn't expect like a volcano more than a 1% likelihood largecale effects. This moment marked the beginning of Jeffrey Michionlo's lifelong journey as perhaps the world's only PhD in parasychology who has dedicated his life to studying the paranormal and bringing
00:29:41
it to a larger audience. Why are we the award recipients here? So many intelligent, well-educated people willing to risk our careers to study the afterlife. For me, the answer is simple. It's about selfnowledge. And to the extent that the human civilization ignores this area of research, we are lacking in self-nowledge. He was uniquely qualified to become for a time Ted Owen's best and perhaps only friend. To my amazement, Jeffrey, you, a young man, a young scientist, are the only scientists, including the gayheads,
00:30:34
to make a breakthrough and quote, come to where I am, end quote, parasychologically. Ryan couldn't understand. Sprinkle couldn't grasp it. It was beyond Heinik. Dr. Fogle couldn't break through. Tar and put off couldn't grasp it. Only Jeffrey Michishlov has made it and consciousness. [Music] Best to you always. Ted Owens PK man. However, such friendship comes at a cost. Jeffrey called me on the phone. He said, "Jeffrey," in his big booming voice, "This is the most important phone call you will ever
00:31:26
receive. It's up to you. You have to notify the US government not to send the next space shuttle into outer space." He said, "Because my UFOs are angry and they're going to knock it out of the sky." We have a report from the flight dynamics officer that the vehicle has exploded. [Music] And that was 3 weeks before the Challenger [Music] explosion. There is no precedent for me unless one goes back to the time of Moses. But as time passed, I have demonstrated a regular rainbow of miracles. Over the years, Owens became ever more
00:32:24
frustrated with the lack of seriousness his abilities had garnered scientifically. Finally, he decided to demonstrate his vast powers at the expense of several sports teams that would eventually come to rue the name PK Man. Ted Owens was perhaps most wellknown publicly for claiming to manipulate sporting events using his mysterious powers of psychokinesis. He said they were demonstrations of his ability and he became so infamous for his unusually accurate jinxes that even owners of football teams would reach out. Dear Mr.
00:33:00
Owens, please believe me when I request that you remove us from your list of losers. If you will please advise me as to a course of action which we could follow to have us remove from this category. I will do whatever I can to comply. I note with a great deal of interest your record of accomplishments. I thank you for considering this request sincerely, Carol Rosenlum, president the Baltimore Colts. Unfortunately, perhaps for them, they never wanted to pay his fees to stop his interference, which only caused Owens to
00:33:33
double down. Perhaps no team was more affected by his high jinx than the 1968 Philadelphia Eagles, who experienced by far their worst year in specific ways Owens claimed to cause, often by sitting at home and attempting to manipulate specific plays by focusing on the TV from the comfort of his easy chair. The Eagles, as usual, were decided underdogs. A web-footed eagle named Tom Woodishik slogged through the swamps for 79 sloppy yards to the Philadelphia Eagles. Several years ago, when Jerry Wilman
00:34:12
still owned your team, Stan Hawkman asked me face to face if a change in the ownership of the Eagles, plus a new coach, plus new personnel, could stop my PK attack on the Eagles. I told him then instantly that it could not stop the PK attack. Nothing can stop my mind from beating you year in and year out. The PK works in a thousand ways. It will get the coach fired, make the owner go bankrupt. It's a huge monumental jinx. I'll simply refer you to a column Stan H. watchman wrote about me several years
00:34:57
ago after he'd taken me to a football game and I'd sent PK after one man Tom Woodick number 37 and one was number 37 225-lb fullback Tom Woodishek in each of his six seasons with the Eagles he's gained more yardage than he gained the year before Tom Wooding the PK pay to get Woody out of the game. What's the matter with you, Woody? Her clavicle. Clavicle. Clavicle. Tender on the joint right there. You got one hair on my chest and you had to put it on that ear, didn't you? I was after it. Woodik was
00:35:40
lucky. In spite of injuries, he played in every game. Less than half the Eagles players were so lucky. Many could not return at all. All the young linebackers were injured. Ike Kelly, Arunas Fazies, and number 35 Adrien Young. Veteran AllPro tackle and defensive leader Floyd Peters missed most of the season due to injuries. Frank Molden, who after two years of injuries, missed two months of 1968 with a broken leg. Elected co- captain of the Eagles by his teammates, Woody said, "I won't make any fiery speeches. I'll show
00:36:16
them by example." It was an example none of his teammates will forget. And in 10 minutes, Woodchek rushed out onto the field, hit a cowboy in the face, and was thrown out of the game by the officials. In his write up, Stan Hchman said, "But what flash of insanity provoked him," Woodcheck, to rush off the bench with his fist flurry? "Ted Owens did it." Honest, he called himself the PK man. Lightning is my specialty. [Music]
Hello and welcome. I'm Jeffrey Mishlove. Today we are releasing the third preview for the fourthcoming documentary about the PK man. I'm here with the director and co-producer Lance Mongia of the film. We are still attempting to raise money through a crowdfunder campaign. The links for you if you're interested in helping us move this project along will be found in the description of this video. And before we show you the preview, Lance and I are going to share a few tidbits about what we are continuing to learn about the
00:00:41
remarkable career of Ted Owens, the PK man. Welcome, Lance. Hi Jeffrey and thanks for for having me back again and thank you for continuing to make this movie for me. We're we're uh you know sort of full steam ahead and still again just trying to raise funds to finish the documentary. We're still planning to go out and gather some more interviews and uh that kind of thing for this. And I thought that today would be fun to talk about, I think, one of the more interesting aspects of the whole Ted
00:01:11
Owens story that often really gets overlooked, you know, because uh you know, Ted Owens being this person who claimed to do all of these amazing things with his mind claimed that the powers came from the space intelligences. And I thought that was it's a really interesting subject. And synchronistically, I've met several people over the years that have claimed to have somewhat similar experiences to the kinds of things that happened to Ted Owens that claimed that really sort of amped up his psychoinetic abilities and
00:01:39
allowed him to do these things. And you know, these encounters with these sort of mantis looking kind of grasshopper looking insect beings. And it's something that originally several years ago I wasn't really familiar with, but that I've become very familiar with just because of the the literature and because of a lot of experiences that that people have. Like sometimes randomly like I'll strike up a conversation with someone and they'll bring up these these beings which I find really interesting. But Jeffrey, maybe
00:02:08
you could tell us a little bit about like what his connection to these beings really was. Well, when I first encountered Ted Owens, the nomenclature that's now very popular, manted beings, wasn't around at all. And so, when he described these insecttoid beings that from whom he seemed to derive his remarkable powers, I I didn't know what to make of it. And it did seem weird and strange. Subsequently, we have learned I've actually interviewed on this channel a fellow named David J. Brown, uh, we recently released his video about
00:02:47
DNT, DMT entities. And he claims that under the influence of DMT, he had an experience almost 50 years ago in which a mantedlike being appeared and operated on his brain. and he claims that he's never been the same since that it opened up all sorts of psychic and intuitive abilities and that he remembers that day and he thinks about it every day of his life since then. So his story although completely different in origin than Ted Owen seems remarkably similar and he even drew a picture of the mantedlike
00:03:28
being operating on his brain. We'll show it here. And so that's very very similar to the report I got from Ted Owens that I just honestly didn't know what to make of it. He also claimed well they're not really insectoid. He said they're actually energy beings but they take the shape of of of an insect but that's not really who they are. He claimed that they were hyperdimensional and that they lived in a giant invisible UFO hovering over the planet and that he would send them telepathic messages to perform
00:04:08
various functions affect the weather, affect a volcano, affect a hurricane or a a tornado, a drought or a cold spell or a heat spell or a football team or a basketball team. and they for reasons of their own were happy to comply for the most part. And and so that's how he produced over 160 demonstrations over a 20-year period. He was quite consistent and in the sense that roughly twothirds of those demonstrations worked out the way he said they would. These manted beings seem to be almost like puppet
00:04:51
masters in a way is the way they're often portrayed in in sort of experiencer stories. I know Whitley Striber uh you know has talked about these these sort of grasshopper looking beings sort of being kind of in the background while these small gray beings are are are walking around sort of interacting directly. oftentimes there's a sexual component to these stories where there's almost like a uh like a hybrid breeding program going on or something apparently where uh um you know these these beings are involved um
00:05:21
and they tend to just pop up in in the the literature of the alien abduction you know ET abduction you know sort of experience again and again you know what's interesting is before I even got into any of this when I first got into meditation it was probably 2011 2012 I had a meditation where these two very tall like mantis looking sort of beings but in these like kind of robes were standing over me and like looking down and they were wearing these robes with all these kind of hieroglyphics on it
00:05:52
and I and it kind of shocked me out of the meditation at the time and uh that was my only experience with them. I had no other knowledge of them whatsoever uh until many years later, you know, going starting to work on third eye spies and going to some conventions and things like that. And then I would start to hear these stories and and now sometimes people will just come up and tell me these these uh these stories about these beings. I'm pretty sure, Lance, considering that Ted Owens claimed that
00:06:18
he was an experiment of the space intelligences, like a a canary in the coal mine that were going to endow him with these powers in order to the the way he expressed it to conduct something of a sociological experiment. How would the human community respond to a person who had his enormous talent? And if that scenario is correct and I I don't see anything contradicting it, then I'm sure the space intelligences are also observing you and me and this activity that we're engaged in now with the documentary and for all I know will also
00:07:00
be affecting the viewers. You know what's what's interesting about these manted beings and it sort of plays to what Ted Owens had said regarding them being you know possibly like uh beings of of energy that then kind of come into the world in this form is uh a lot of the other stories where people will have screen memories like sometimes like with Mike Cleland's book on owls like you know they'll talk about just seeing these kind of like owl eyes and having this this strange memory of owls before
00:07:29
there's an abduction experience. Other times, you know, I heard a story from a very high ranking CIA person that we interviewed for Third Eye Spies, how a physicist friend of his kept having these experiences when he would go out to his cabin in the woods and he would see this raccoon, you know, standing on two legs and like beckoning to him and then he would lose uh hours of time, you know, and then come to like an on his bed in his cabin, you know, kind of sounds like Rocket Raccoon or something from the
00:08:00
Marvel movies really, but that you know this was long before that. It just makes you think like what was that and and are we sort of is are these beings able to actually manipulate our perception to the point that they can make us see whatever we want to see or what they want us to see. So that also would explain Owens's sort of evolution as to like what he was seeing over the years because you know it didn't start with the the manted beings. He had had this UFO experience which we dramatized in some film footage that
00:08:33
we're going to show you today. But this was in like what 1955. And uh and then he had started having other experiences where he thought like what was it? He was seeing the spirit of nature and it was this kind of like ghostly apparition of a woman that he would see and then and then and other things and then it eventually evolved into Twitter and Twitter the grasshopper like beans. Is that right? Well, originally he thought it was a female entity he called Big Lorny who was something of a poltergeist. But yes,
00:09:07
so it it evolved over time and his explanations about was he using his own psychokinesis or was he simply telepaththing messages to the space intelligences who were performing everything? There was a lot of ambiguity around that. I was really lucky to spend some time with um Jacques Valet when we were making the phenomenon together because he was an adviser on that film and he would come out to where we were editing on the weekends and we would just chat and you know Jacques has been researching the subject far more than
00:09:40
anybody probably alive today. I mean, he's been doing it since he was in his early 20s and what is he in his 80s now? And and um he really kind of at this point throws his hands up in the air and says, "You know what? The entire phenomenon doesn't make sense." And he's no longer convinced that it even is extraterrestrial. you know, the the um explanation of of energy that you brought up earlier, Jeffrey, that this was energy that can kind of somehow form into a certain appearance is not as unlikely as I think some people might
00:10:08
think, you know, because like the way Jacques would put it is it's like this appears in whatever shape it needs to appear in order to teach us something or to grow really is is what his explanation kind of I think is in in some of his books. And uh you know it's almost like holographic in in nature you know and that the universe you know whether it be fairies in the uh you know 16th century or uh you know manted beings you know in spaceships today. It's kind of like where are we at as a society and what can we sort of accept
00:10:40
as what is paranormal? Well, we will have just released uh before this video gets released an interview with Tom Campbell, the author of My Big toe. And he likes to refer to the larger consciousness system, which is in control of this physical reality, created this physical reality. He would say we're living in a simulation, but very much like we're inside of a computer game. And the larger consciousness system, whether it's banded beings or reptilians or angels or fairies, the larger consciousness system
00:11:20
has the ability to interject these entities into our physical reality and does so for the purpose of helping us to awaken to our larger consciousness. And actually, that's the deeper message of the Ted Owens story. I think this isn't as much about what someone enabled 10 o Ted Owens to do. It's more about what are we all capable of being able to do. And what's interesting about a lot of these experiences is that that's often what it really comes down to is is uh it appears like you know there's this
00:11:57
energy that exists that is trying to push us forward somehow. And and uh again, another thing I think we've gotten into in a previous interview is once you experience something that is so far outside of your norm, it's like something breaks in your reality and and then people will start to have all sorts of different experiences. And this is something that in euphology is sort of the dirty little secret, you know, in in that a lot of these experiencers will have an encounter with a craft or or a
00:12:24
being of some kind and then lots of strange things will start happening around them. and and often this time it's things that they don't talk about. This reminds me of a story of a uh record executive that was friends with a UFO researcher friend of mine and he had seen a UFO, you know, and he had uh spoken to my researcher friend about it and he kind of confided that the strangest thing and he feared he was actually losing his mind over this was uh he started to have other experiences after that that weren't UFO related but
00:12:55
were sort of poltergeist related. And in one instance, the weirdest one, which he was very embarrassed to even talk about, he said he was sitting at his mixing panel late one night working alone in the studio and he hears what sounds like a band playing and and he looks over his shoulder and walking through the doorway is a line of literal fairies with musical instruments playing musical instruments and then going out the other side of the door. And he's sitting there, he says, "I don't do drugs. I
00:13:22
wasn't drunk. you know, I I there was nothing wrong with me at that time, but I think I might be losing my mind. And and and and these are the sorts of things that that you hear that are so bizarre and and sound so fanciful that people just won't discuss them. Um but often times it's after an initial paranormal experience like seeing a UFO. So what does that really say? A classic case is Kenneth Arnold, the fellow in 1947 who was flying his small aircraft near Mount Reneer when he first saw what
00:13:54
he identified as flying saucers and started the whole UFO flap. He also had these personal experiences and I think we now know about this because his family members have come out and reported on it but it was kept under wraps for decades. But it is very common and even with Jacques. Jacques told a story about investigating a UFO case and the uh the witnesses would describe a certain symbol on a craft that multiple witnesses saw that were verified. And then Jacques went and researched this symbol. And he said, "I believe the
00:14:31
witnesses that the witnesses saw something, but the symbol turns out to be a cow brand of a local rancher in the area." So So I say he says, "So how do I reconcile that?" He says it's like someone's playing a practical joke, you know, a cosmic practical joke. Like like why are you using a a local cow brand as a symbol on a UFO? It doesn't make any sense. And and uh and again sort of leads to what Jock would call this sort of like trickster energy, you know, where where uh you know, like what we're
00:15:01
seeing may not necessarily be what we're actually seeing. It's archetypal. I'm sure a Yungian psychologist would have a lot to say about it. But here here's a key point, Lance. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if our viewers just from watching this 20 minute video that you've just put together have experiences of their own. And I'm sure we'd be very happy to hear from viewers who would like to report on anything they notice in their lives after watching our little video. Yeah, please. I mean, write that in the comments down
00:15:36
below. I would love to hear anybody's story and and also you can go to our crowdfunding campaign page and you can leave messages there as well. We'd love it if you'd become a contributor. But even if you just want to start a dialogue, uh I've had a couple of people reach out and ask uh about possibly starting a Discord page or something like that where uh where we can have dialogue about these kinds of things cuz uh there's not a lot of places that people can go to to talk about this kind of stuff. I'm happy to be a venue, you
00:16:03
know, for that. But I agree that like just even watching a movie can influence your consciousness somehow. I think that's a real thing. I mean, uh, there's stories about people watching like a Poltergeist or The Exorcist or something and then something will fly across the room or something and I I' I've heard stories like that and it may just be again kind of you'll see something and it acts as a permission slip for you to then have similar experiences. So, what we're going to show is uh initially it's
00:16:32
the five-minute teaser that you've seen before, just for people who haven't seen it yet, just to set the story. And then these are a collection of scenes that are not necessarily appearing in in the order they're going to be in in the final film. But, uh we do start with Ted's origin story with the with these manted beings and and uh sort of seeing a a craft in 1955 and then and then going through some of the other aspects of his work. These are all rough scenes. you know, you we're we're giving you a a
00:16:59
preview of some rough scenes. We're still going to go out and get more interviews. That's what we still really need and we need support for this. We need the help of regular contributors like you guys. Uh and we're I'm incredibly grateful for the people that have already contributed. We're going to be sending out some some of the uh perks soon. You know, there's some really interesting perks on there. You can get a class that Jeffrey cured that was done by Ted Owens as well as some other advanced looks at things. So, we hope
00:17:26
you enjoy the the footage. I guess we should just sign off and let people watch it. [Music] [Music] Fella, a friend of mine in Chicago saw an article today in which you say some nasty things about me in the tattler. You even have the gall to insinuate as he explained at long distance that I might be a fake and a phony. Let's take it one step at a time. You have to be stupid. You know, dumb. No one in this world in their right mind would take me on. Not after I have documented causing hurricanes with
00:18:26
my mind. Also control military forces. Heal people given up by doctors for dead. Control radar installations. Control pro football teams and on and on. And mind you, we are speaking of documented before the fact action. 168 different demonstrations he performed over a period of 20 years. Twothirds of them worked out the way he said they would for events that by chance alone you wouldn't expect. You have chosen to insult me and I say you are a dirty low down yella coward. That's what I label you.
00:19:18
I am 52 years old with a pot belly and years out of condition, but it would be a pleasure to give you a lesson in manners. Ted Owens, self-professed master of mind over matter that could control nature itself by the force of psychokinesis or PK. and he would be the greatest teller of tall tales in history if not or the evidence [Applause] and uh also predicted he could make some UFOs appear and even that happened published in the newspapers. He creates what he calls a picture a PK map an image of what he
00:20:04
wants to have happen. He focuses on that image. He sends the image telepathically to invisible aliens hovering above the Earth in a giant UFO he calls the space intelligences. They sit in front of a big screen and they make all of these things happen. Mine is perhaps the greatest story in the entire history of the world. UFO entities have given me an advanced brain, the brain of future men. Now they want to see what I will do with it and whether I will misuse my powers. So far I have not. He called
00:20:47
himself the PK man. Lightning is my specialty. [Music] It was January or February 1955. Ted Owens was driving with his daughter Lorie on a lonely road outside Fort Worth. It was the day that for PK man, it all began to come together. [Music] This is amazing. Daddy, look. What's that? [Music] It vanished like a breath held too long, as if the sky itself had blinked. To Ted Owens, it was no accident. It was the beginning of something vast. A signal cast across the silence of space, answered not with words, but with
00:22:24
presence. What came next would strip away the veil of the ordinary, rewire his mind, and draw him into a shadow war between the waking world and something far stranger. Something [Music] watching. Heat. Heat. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] into the practice field. He falls out and he completes this one to Dodson. Over the middle, wide open is Dodson for the first down. After the sky blinked shut, something opened in him. A whisper at first. Ideas came unbidden. Maps, storm paths, pressure lines that pulse like
00:24:18
veins across the land. He wasn't just seeing the weather anymore. He was inside it. And behind it all, a presence watching from somewhere beyond the clouds, waiting to be [Music] heard. He got out of his chair one day, walked outside, and decided he could call down lightning. [Music] He went for a walk near the rural southern farmhouse where he resided with his wife and demanded lightning strike. It did. The ensuing storm scattered his wife's laundry and she berated him for bringing the weather down on them.
00:25:08
How could you do this? It wasn't the first or last insult he would ever receive in the face of such miracles. And I have waited too long, over long for some cooperation from somebody, waiting for some scientists somewhere to make an approach. It's February 5th, 1976. Palo Alto, California. All over the city, residents look up to the sky and witness something extraordinary. He said, "Well, I'm going to free the snowstorms of the likes that you've never seen there in Northern California." And it's going to snow like
00:26:07
hell over this next weekend. And it'll be published in your newspaper, your local newspaper. There'll be such a big snowstorm that the papers will write about it because there'd been nothing like there for 50 years. January 25th, 1976. To the scientists I know, gentlemen, it is time time to give you a demonstration to strike fear into your hearts. I am not your ordinary orthodox human. This all occurred. We exchanged telegrams that all weekend and by the next Monday with an enormous snowstorm and nobody could imagine where it came
00:26:57
from cuz it was not forecast. Inside the labs of Stanford Research Institute, two of the CIA's top scientists, Russell Tar and Hal Putoff, watch stunned. Their focus not on the weather, nor the psychics they tasked to remotely view Soviet secrets, but on the man who claimed he would make this happen. I've been in California now for 62 years. And the only snowstorm that I can recall ever happening is the one that was sent to us by Ted Owens. although it was not known why we were doing it, but it's
00:27:34
generally known in the public that we're looking for people to come forward with examples of uh paranormal experiences. We were contacted by Ted Owens who said that uh he had a lifetime of really remarkable experiences. He would like to come to SRRI and show us their flying saucers and their rainstorms. and that's just the exact opposite of what we wanted to do with a lowprofile program. They got very angry with me. Despite their curiosity, Owens was too hot for the scientists at SRRI to handle.
00:28:14
Obviously, for the official program we had at SRRI, we had to be very meticulous in the scientific sense, but nonetheless, it was very evocative. You and Hail were very excited about this character Ted Owens. He had a big file sitting on a shelf that you and Hail were eager to get rid of. And so they decided to quietly hand off the box of files, correspondents, and newspaper clippings they accumulated on him to the young intern, PhD candidate Jeffrey Michishlov. 168 different demonstrations he performed over a period of 20 years. The
00:28:57
files contain letters sent in advance to scientists talking about the effects that he would claim to produce through psychokinesis. My conclusion was that roughly twothirds of them worked out the way he said they would. And uh for events that by chance alone you wouldn't expect like a volcano more than a 1% likelihood largecale effects. This moment marked the beginning of Jeffrey Michionlo's lifelong journey as perhaps the world's only PhD in parasychology who has dedicated his life to studying the paranormal and bringing
00:29:41
it to a larger audience. Why are we the award recipients here? So many intelligent, well-educated people willing to risk our careers to study the afterlife. For me, the answer is simple. It's about selfnowledge. And to the extent that the human civilization ignores this area of research, we are lacking in self-nowledge. He was uniquely qualified to become for a time Ted Owen's best and perhaps only friend. To my amazement, Jeffrey, you, a young man, a young scientist, are the only scientists, including the gayheads,
00:30:34
to make a breakthrough and quote, come to where I am, end quote, parasychologically. Ryan couldn't understand. Sprinkle couldn't grasp it. It was beyond Heinik. Dr. Fogle couldn't break through. Tar and put off couldn't grasp it. Only Jeffrey Michishlov has made it and consciousness. [Music] Best to you always. Ted Owens PK man. However, such friendship comes at a cost. Jeffrey called me on the phone. He said, "Jeffrey," in his big booming voice, "This is the most important phone call you will ever
00:31:26
receive. It's up to you. You have to notify the US government not to send the next space shuttle into outer space." He said, "Because my UFOs are angry and they're going to knock it out of the sky." We have a report from the flight dynamics officer that the vehicle has exploded. [Music] And that was 3 weeks before the Challenger [Music] explosion. There is no precedent for me unless one goes back to the time of Moses. But as time passed, I have demonstrated a regular rainbow of miracles. Over the years, Owens became ever more
00:32:24
frustrated with the lack of seriousness his abilities had garnered scientifically. Finally, he decided to demonstrate his vast powers at the expense of several sports teams that would eventually come to rue the name PK Man. Ted Owens was perhaps most wellknown publicly for claiming to manipulate sporting events using his mysterious powers of psychokinesis. He said they were demonstrations of his ability and he became so infamous for his unusually accurate jinxes that even owners of football teams would reach out. Dear Mr.
00:33:00
Owens, please believe me when I request that you remove us from your list of losers. If you will please advise me as to a course of action which we could follow to have us remove from this category. I will do whatever I can to comply. I note with a great deal of interest your record of accomplishments. I thank you for considering this request sincerely, Carol Rosenlum, president the Baltimore Colts. Unfortunately, perhaps for them, they never wanted to pay his fees to stop his interference, which only caused Owens to
00:33:33
double down. Perhaps no team was more affected by his high jinx than the 1968 Philadelphia Eagles, who experienced by far their worst year in specific ways Owens claimed to cause, often by sitting at home and attempting to manipulate specific plays by focusing on the TV from the comfort of his easy chair. The Eagles, as usual, were decided underdogs. A web-footed eagle named Tom Woodishik slogged through the swamps for 79 sloppy yards to the Philadelphia Eagles. Several years ago, when Jerry Wilman
00:34:12
still owned your team, Stan Hawkman asked me face to face if a change in the ownership of the Eagles, plus a new coach, plus new personnel, could stop my PK attack on the Eagles. I told him then instantly that it could not stop the PK attack. Nothing can stop my mind from beating you year in and year out. The PK works in a thousand ways. It will get the coach fired, make the owner go bankrupt. It's a huge monumental jinx. I'll simply refer you to a column Stan H. watchman wrote about me several years
00:34:57
ago after he'd taken me to a football game and I'd sent PK after one man Tom Woodick number 37 and one was number 37 225-lb fullback Tom Woodishek in each of his six seasons with the Eagles he's gained more yardage than he gained the year before Tom Wooding the PK pay to get Woody out of the game. What's the matter with you, Woody? Her clavicle. Clavicle. Clavicle. Tender on the joint right there. You got one hair on my chest and you had to put it on that ear, didn't you? I was after it. Woodik was
00:35:40
lucky. In spite of injuries, he played in every game. Less than half the Eagles players were so lucky. Many could not return at all. All the young linebackers were injured. Ike Kelly, Arunas Fazies, and number 35 Adrien Young. Veteran AllPro tackle and defensive leader Floyd Peters missed most of the season due to injuries. Frank Molden, who after two years of injuries, missed two months of 1968 with a broken leg. Elected co- captain of the Eagles by his teammates, Woody said, "I won't make any fiery speeches. I'll show
00:36:16
them by example." It was an example none of his teammates will forget. And in 10 minutes, Woodchek rushed out onto the field, hit a cowboy in the face, and was thrown out of the game by the officials. In his write up, Stan Hchman said, "But what flash of insanity provoked him," Woodcheck, to rush off the bench with his fist flurry? "Ted Owens did it." Honest, he called himself the PK man. Lightning is my specialty. [Music]
