Ingo Swann's Out-of-Body Experiments at the American Society for Psychical Research

[00:00:00.560] This series of experiments is being
[00:00:02.480] conducted at the American Society for
[00:00:04.799] Psychical Research by Dr. Carlos Osus, a
[00:00:08.639] Latvian-B born parasychologist.
[00:00:17.680] Suspended from the ceiling is a tray.
[00:00:22.160] Small objects are placed in the tray. I
[00:00:25.680] can't see them from here because the
[00:00:29.920] tray is facing upwards.
[00:00:33.680] But I am working with a man who can see.
[00:00:37.920] He is Ingo Swan,
[00:00:41.040] artist and psychic.
[00:00:45.040] He feels that he can project himself
[00:00:50.559] up towards the ceiling so he can look
[00:00:54.079] from above in the tray and see what's
[00:00:57.199] there. Then he feels he's coming back to
[00:01:00.559] his body and he makes a sketch of what
[00:01:03.920] he has seen in the tray.
[00:01:07.119] Sometimes he does it with amazing degree
[00:01:11.280] of accuracy.
[00:01:13.920] Of course, we are trying to find out how
[00:01:17.520] it works in a scientific experiment.
[00:01:22.320] Janet Mitchell, my assistant right now,
[00:01:25.840] is connecting ingos
[00:01:28.560] to polygraph.
[00:01:31.439] Polygraph
[00:01:33.040] will record what is going on in his body
[00:01:38.479] when he performs the out of body tasks.
[00:01:44.960] >> Okay, Ingo,
[00:01:47.040] we're almost ready to go. Is everything
[00:01:48.960] all right?
[00:01:49.520] >> Everything's fine.
[00:01:50.560] >> Okay, if you want me, just call.
[00:01:52.240] >> Okay.
[00:01:53.600] >> During the run of the experiment, very
[00:01:55.600] careful records are kept on any changes
[00:01:57.759] occurring in Ingo's body.
[00:02:00.719] particularly changes occurring in the
[00:02:02.560] electrical characteristics of his brain.
[00:02:11.160] [Music]
[00:02:49.680] Okay, I'm finished.
[00:02:53.840] The data from the polygraph is carefully
[00:02:55.920] analyzed for any physiological evidence
[00:02:58.160] of Ingo actually projecting his
[00:03:00.160] consciousness out of the body when he
[00:03:02.080] viewed the target object.
[00:03:04.879] We have already found
[00:03:08.400] that it really seems
[00:03:11.599] he can see the objects in the tray
[00:03:15.519] suspended from ceiling from an out
[00:03:18.800] ofbody point of view.
[00:03:21.920] We have also found
[00:03:24.480] already that his brain waves decrease in
[00:03:30.159] voltage
[00:03:32.319] right here back of his head. It might
[00:03:36.239] mean that the brain is more quiet
[00:03:41.760] at the time when he is out and resume
[00:03:44.560] full activity when he is back in. We'll
[00:03:48.239] know more for sure next year.
