It’s super cool that they got Dr. Evil to narrate this!

For believers, no evidence is necessary, but for skeptics, no evidence is enough. It’s always gonna be that way... I love these types of documentaries, the ones where you end right where you started, still not knowing.

[brianjohnson]

You did a fantastic job at presenting all the information you obtained without inserting a biased opinion. Honestly, when I searched this subject, I avoided the History Channel series mainly because they too often sensationalize things. You did just the opposite, which I greatly appreciate. Great job!!!

[rowbags]

Congratulations on producing an even-handed account that avoids the sensationalism that's evident in what I've seen of the current TV show. For me, the most compelling evidence that something odd maybe did take place there in the '90s is that Sherman sold the property at a loss, so anxious was he to get his family away from the ranch.

When your ranch is an intergalactic tourist attraction

[toddduchesne]

A huge wolf walks up to you and you pet it?? I find that very hard to believe!

[mizjean]

At last, a sane documentary on this insane subject. Good job.

My sister's ex husband worked for Bob Bigelow on skinwalker ranch and from the few stories I've heard first hand made me think up this quote "No humans imagination is nearly as bizarre as Reality " that place is just so mind-blowing our species will never grow to comprehend it fully

My grandmother's house in Kerry Ireland was built on a leyline or as folklore calls them fairy paths, only one entrance. Supposedly there has to be a back entrance in order for these things to pass through. A lot of strange things happened there. Noises late at night, voice's, temperature fluctuations. It felt like the center of the universe to me as a kid. Hard to explain why it felt like that. It was sold, twice I heard nobody had luck there. Last couple, passed away as far as I know. And they were quite young too. I'm going to be passing there in a few weeks. I might see if there's anyone new there. And ask can I Walk the land just for old time sake and take some pictures.

Great summary of the decades spanning strange/mysterious happenings on this large plot of land! Also the fact that you got Lorne Michaels to narrate is a huge win.

[trishakauffman]

Gotta say I love how you tell both sides of it and not lean too hard one way or another letting people make up their own minds with the facts presented. Awesome video.

[patrowan]

Thank you for not wasting over an hour of my time with squishy thinking and nonsense regarding Skinwalker Ranch. Your treatment is impressively thorough, and based on honest examination of the history and claims -- an approach I find frustratingly rare these days. This satisfied my search for information that did not assume prior knowledge and conclusions, and you have gained my respect with your eventual focus on the question of evidence. Liked and subscribed with gratitude.

[TheLadderman]

Man, I just love the way that you cover paranormal type stuff, you seriously have the most well rounded and reasonable takes that I ever see on these kinds of subjects. I completely agree with what you said at the end about how people need to be careful to be neither pseudoscientists, nor pseudoskeptics.

[claregraham]

I’m super interested in this fascinating topic. Thank you for providing this all encompassing documentary, it’s greatly appreciated

[Zero-eijn]

Nicely done. Fair, balanced & thorough. You even revealed details and info I have not heard of before and I've been following this story for quite a while now.

[gnoelalexmay]

Thank you - great documentary.

This was my first exposure to the Skinwalker Ranch story, and the Fire Of Learning channel. Very impressed.

I look forward to more from your channel, and would certainly be interested in watching a Part II on this subject.

All the best 🙏

[mortalclown]

Thank you for producing something about Skinwalker Ranch that I'm not embarrassed to watch. Those of us who've experienced anomalous, inexplicable events are perhaps more curious than folks who haven't. On the other hand, finding information not churned out by woo believers or close-minded skeptics. It's frustrating.

Glad to discover your channel, too. Subbed.

[BinroWasRight]

This was fascinating, incisive and very well-balanced. Skinwalker Ranch is a story that I don't think has ever been told in full, and likely never will be for various reasons. But I think you pieced together the evidence, lack thereof and accounts well.

[TheMoparman]

Excellent presentation! I thoroughly enjoyed your video!

[Nyctophora]

Thank you for a detailed, honest, thorough, respectful and above all very fair look at this fascinating place. I found the way you broke everything down really comprehensive and easy to understand.
