THE PROOF IS OUT THERE

Continues Thursdays at 21:00

The Proof Is Out There is the series that analyses the most mysterious videos, films, photos, and audio recordings from history - UFOs, cryptids, strange natural history phenomena, and more.

Host and veteran journalist Tony Harris takes nothing for granted in a quest for answers, tracking down eyewitnesses, putting each photo or film through a battery of tests, calling out the hoaxes, and highlighting the most credible evidence in an attempt to better understand our world.

Is that triangle-shaped UFO real? Does it move like known airplanes from history, including top secret Stealth bombers (in a side-by-side analysis)? When the famous Patterson Bigfoot footage (1967) is blown up and run through special filters, can we see details that prove or disprove whether it's a real animal? Each mystery ends with a verdict: Best guess, what is it? (S4)
