The burning ice eventually absorbed all moisture from a wooden cabin, causing it to collapse into dust. A government team arrived with multiple cranes to extract the impossibly heavy wood stove containing the still-burning ice. Mel also reveals that seal-like creatures with human eyes, born from a sheep lowered into the hole, now communicate with the Basque through a boombox radio, warning that the ice could destroy the world through greedy and undisciplined use.
Major Ed Dames follows with discussions of biological warfare threats, his background as a biowarfare case officer, and remote viewing contact with higher intelligence through Project Starman. He shares his conviction that nuclear conflict on the Korean peninsula is imminent and echoes Sylvia Browne's unsettling sense that time itself may be ending.
Key Moments
Burning ice from the Nevada hole: Mel Waters describes lowering 7-Eleven ice cubes 1,000 feet into his Nevada hole, pulling them up unmelted and not cold to the touch, then watching the ice catch fire when set on a campfire.
Wood stove sinks through the cabin floor: After a Basque shepherd burns the strange ice in his wood stove all winter, steam from his kettle is sucked back into the stove and the entire stove crashes through the hearth and into the dirt below the cabin.
Sheep returns dead with a seal-like creature inside: Basques lower a sheep a thousand feet into the Nevada hole, winch it back dead, and find a tumor-like baby seal creature with human-looking eyes inside it. Mel suggests a different set of physical laws operating deep in the earth.
The seal creature speaks through a boombox: Mel says the Basques camped at the Nevada hole report the seal creature returning regularly, sitting on the metal flange around the hole and communicating with them through the radio of a boombox.
Dames predicts North Korean nuke in 2003: Ed Dames says the next nuclear weapon used in anger will be on the Korean peninsula and he believes it happens this year, with the North Koreans popping a nuke near the DMZ that triggers a ground war.
