Art Bell’s Open Lines episode dives into Nevada’s Yucca Mountain nuclear waste lawsuit (77,000 tons deferred to 2010) and U.S. military propaganda drops—$100 bills with Bush’s photo and Taliban-as-pawn imagery—over Afghanistan/Pakistan, questioning motives. Callers share "unbreakable" survival stories: a Missouri man shot in the head, thrown from a truck, and hit by a train; a Florida woman ejected at 110 mph; and Cole, dubbed "Silly Putty," surviving crashes, including windshield hair embedment. Some link resilience to guardian angels or reversed-language dimensions, while others speculate on parasites, ancient tech, or divine gifts. Bell muses on unexplained survival patterns, gravity disruptions from Earth alterations, and psychic warnings like Mount Hood’s predicted eruption, hinting at deeper forces—natural, spiritual, or governmental—beyond conventional science.

From the high desert and the great American Southwest.
I bid you all good evening, good morning, good afternoon in all 24 time zones covered by this radio program, which is Coast to Coast AM and which tonight is solidly into open lines.
Anything you want to talk about is fair game.
I do have one idea, born of some calls and suggestions I've received that I'll lay out for you in a few moments will cover what's going on in the world.
Well, well, well, well, look at this.
Nevada filed suit in federal court today after our president approved Yucca Mountain, 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas, as a site for long-term disposal of thousands of tons of highly radioactive nuclear waste.
In a letter to congressional leaders, Bush said a disposal site for as much as 77,000 tons of waste loading up at U.S. sites is necessary to protect this nation's security.
He noted Nevada's expected protest will leave the final decision on whether to proceed up to Congress.
Now, it's my understanding that even if it's approved, it won't happen until the year 2010.
And we'll see.
Canadian, you know, big Canadian brouhaha, right?
Figure skaters, Sammy Sale, David Pelletier were awarded a gold medal today after the judge said she was, quote, under a certain pressure, end quote, to vote for the Russians in the Olympic competition.
unidentified
The judge, Marie-René Lejeune-aux France, was suspended indefinitely.
Justice was done, said Pelletier at a news conference.
The Russians weren't assured.
The vice president, Dick Cheney, actually has spoken, has been seen, I guess, and spoken, has vowed to use all means at our disposal to go after anybody, you know, Iraq or any other rogue nation to fight terrorism.
So I guess they're setting up to go after the Axis of evil.
Saudi Arabia has agreed to hand over three suspects it arrested in connection with the brutal slaying of Afghanistan's aviation minister, according to senior Bush administration officials.
Let's see what else is going on.
The president tomorrow begins a six-day tour to Asian nations, including South Korea, where he will peer through the razor wire at the North Korean state he condemned as part of the access of evil.
He will actually put his little eyes up to the fence and look through.
In the Philippines, suspected rebels exploded a grenade near a crowded public market in the southern Philippines on Saturday, killed at least five people wounded, more than 40 others.
And that's pretty much the main...
This story comes from the Times of India, and it's so incredible that I sent it on to Keith.
I haven't told him I sent it on, but Keith, I did send the link on to you, so you might be able to get it up on the website.
Check this out.
We were bombing in Afghanistan, right?
U.S. aircraft over southern Afghanistan have scattered $100 bills tucked into envelopes bearing the picture of George W. Bush, said witnesses on Thursday.
We are apparently dropping envelopes with $100 bill in them and a picture of our president.
unidentified
Now, I'm trying to figure out what the message is here.
Some of the envelopes were carried by the wind and fluttered to earth over the Pakistan border town of Shaman, sending people scrambling for the cash.
C-130 airplanes dropped white-colored paper envelopes with a photo of President Bush and two bills of $100 each.
Oh, two bills, really?
They are actually dropping these over areas across the border, but naturally a few were carried by the wind to their side.
People pushed and fought each other to get their hands on the envelopes.
Envelopes bore no message.
No message, just a picture of the president.
The U.S. aircraft first dropped the envelopes on Wednesday afternoon, then made a second run to drop their paper payloads on Thursday morning.
Southern Afghanistan used to be the stronghold, of course, of the vanquished Taliban government.
The money was the latest message from the sky sent by U.S. forces hunting fugitive Saudi-born militant Osama bin Laden and his main Taliban protector, the group's leader, Mohammad Omar.
In recent weeks, U.S. aircraft have dropped leaflets over the same area depicting Omar as a dog held on a leash by bin Laden.
Another crude cartoon dropped by the U.S. forces showed Taliban leaders as pawns in the hands of bin Laden playing on a checkered chessboard map of Afghanistan.
So we're sending envelopes of money, $100 bills, one or two of them, we're not sure here, floating down over southern Afghanistan, even some of them carried by the wind in Pakistan, only with a picture of our president.
Now, I wonder what exact message we're trying to send there.
I mean, when you think about it, if you get an envelope with 100 bucks in the present, Give this a little thought.
You open it up, and there, of course, you should see the $100 bill first, right?
And then you're going to look for who sent it, and there's going to be a picture of the President of the United States.
I don't know what that means.
Somebody sent me something very interesting.
You may be interested to know that this will only occur one time.
As the clock ticks over from 8.01 p.m. on Wednesday, February 20th, it's coming up, right?
Today is the 15th, so There have been five days.
On Wednesday, February 20th, 2002, time will, for 60 seconds only, read absolutely perfectly.
To be more precise, it'll be 2002, 2002 2002.
Hour, minute, day, month, year.
It is an event which has only happened once before and is something which will never be repeated.
Never!
Now, I have no idea that this means anything important at all.
I mean, it may not mean, but it's never going to happen again.
Now, how they can know that, I don't know.
I guess they can mathematically, you know, somehow mathematically they can project that it will never occur again.
So that's 2002.
In other words, 802, 2002 on 2002 at 2002, or at the year 2002.
So 2002, 2002, 2002.
That will only happen once.
That is a moment when you may want to stop and think about what it means, which will be hard because I don't have the slightest damn idea what it means.
Now, residents in Kokomo, Indiana, are asking help now from their senator, Richard Luger, to help figure out what this low-frequency hum that more than 80 people in just one neighborhood alone say causes them to suffer health problems, including headaches, nausea, insomnia.
It's all believed caused by the hum, in their opinion.
They want federal officials to conduct tests in the area.
That's Adam in Indianapolis.
Thank you, Adam.
My comment would be, it may well be that federal officials are indeed right now conducting tests in the area.
Just my opinion, and that could be exactly what you're hearing.
I don't know.
I've always had this feeling that we're doing a lot underground, that we just don't talk about it.
See, what other goodies have I for you?
Oh, let me just briefly tell you what I thought we would do tonight.
I've been getting calls, or at least one thing.
I mean, it's open for anything you want, any direction you want to take the program.
Friday night, Saturday.
I really look forward to Friday night, Saturday morning.
We had some terrific guests on this week.
And we've got some terrific guests lined up next week.
But Friday night, Saturday morning, I just kind of like to reserve, you know, for all of you.
However, there is one thing that I would like to ask about, and I have done this, I think, once before.
And I'm doing it for the following reason.
I had a man call the other night.
You may have heard the call.
And he went into quite a detailed story about what his life has been like.
And there are any number of times when he should have been dead.
D-E-A-D, dead, dead, dead.
And he came out of it without mussing a hair.
Now, that called, to my memory, the recent movie with Bruce, I think it was Bruce Willis, wasn't it?
Essentially, if you're unbreakable, you may be somebody who is never going to die.
And there are many people who believe there are people out there who are unbreakable, who have been through disaster after disaster with nothing happening, and in fact are immortals.
And so I thought I would ask if, in fact, there are any immortals out there who would like to tell us their story.
Now, an immortal may have been around for a very long time.
Now, who knows how they become immortal?
Maybe every now and then somebody's born with a gene with just a little bit of twist.
A tiny little genetic twist, that's all it would take after all.
The thing about an immortal, though, is they would never, could never say what they are.
They would lead a very troubled life indeed.
Wives, husbands would come and go, live and die, get older around them.
They'd have to keep on the move.
They wouldn't be able to tell anybody lest they'd be cut open like a lab rat to try and find out what makes them so immortal.
They'd probably be hated by the mortals, the rest of us.
But I've had so many people calling saying, you know, it seems as though I cannot get hurt.
Nothing hurts me.
I escape disaster and danger on a regular basis without mussing so much as a hair.
And so if there are immortals or if there is a path to immortality out there, I sure would like to know what it is.
As much as I would like to know how to travel in time, I'm working very hard on that one, you know.
I'd be interested to know if there are any immortals out there.
I used to open one line, you know, for some prayer.
I gave up on that.
So just if you can get through, if you have a response to this question of mine, and you claim you are immortal or unbreakable, depending on what you, I think they're really the same thing, then pick the line that you can get through on and give me a call.
This was from Jack, I will not give his last name in Dacob, Illinois, suggesting that we ask exactly that question.
Pretty good question, I would say, Jack.
Now, from Reuters, some 66 tons of floating dead fish have so far been recovered from the shallow waters sandwiched between Rio's oceanic beaches and forested mountains.
Summer heat produced a lot of algae, they say, which apparently starved the fish of oxygen.
No oxygen, according to the Rio State Environmental Secretary.
They deny the fish were killed by pollution, adding that the problem was aggravated by rapid breeding of the fish in the shallow, murky water, but they died because they didn't have oxygen.
And, you know, that really does call to mind what the microbiologist was saying on the program last night about the ozone layer and the little creatures, you know, the basic ones that live in the water and produce, he says, and on land, and produce, he says, over 90% of the oxygen.
Now, if we begin to see things dying in the ocean because they don't have oxygen, then we might want to be a little bit concerned, I would suggest to you.
All right, we've got lots of, well, we've got the unknown.
I have no idea what's coming up on open line nights.
One never knows until one pushes a button and opens the lines, and that's what we're about to do.
unidentified

I argue with people about disclosure time and time again.
I've told them governments are not going to come out willingly to tell us it's going to happen by a mistake, it's going to happen by a whistleblower, but it's not going to be an organized thing.
Governments won't do that.
And the reason why they won't do it is because they do not want us to know.
They think that they'll lose control of us if we know.
If you actually truly believe that we were being visited by extraterrestrials and you had categorical proof that it was happening, do you think you would listen to some of the bull that government throws out all the time?
Absolutely not.
You'd look toward the heavens, you'd say there's got to be a better way, and you would start doing your own thing.
And you would forget all about government control and everything else.
So the bottom line is government will never, ever disclose the true facts of UFOs.
Now we take you back to the night of February 15, 2002, on Art Bell, Somewhere in Time.
Art Bell You know, there are some people with some odd thinking out there.
He doesn't really write his name, so people who write stuff like this never write their name.
He says, Art, you obviously don't know a police state when you see one.
Or maybe you're part of it.
To keep our attention on little green men while America disappears, God forbid you should ever use a power for good, because who the hell knows what good is, huh?
Slash.
Boy, I feel slashed.
Well, let me tell you something, unnamed person.
Yes, I have.
I do know what a police state is, and yes, I have lived in a police state, and I know very well what a police state is, sir.
I've been to plenty of police states.
Trust me on this.
Plenty of police states.
The very worst, actually.
And so I know what a police state is, and I submit to you that you don't.
If you think the extra security that America's taking right now to see to it that people don't get blown up in midair and crashed into buildings or poisoned or have something awful rained down on them, if you think that kind of security means that you're in a police state, then brother, I suggest to you that you really do go visit a police state.
China would be good.
Go to China.
That's a good one.
Then you'll find out what a real police state is.
No, we don't live in a police state.
We live in America.
It's the best country on the face of the earth.
And yes, we always have a tendency and reaction to almost anything to go a little too far.
And no doubt, in this case, you know, we will go a little too far.
I've documented a couple of cases where I thought that's already occurred.
But police state?
Huh.
Brother, you don't know what a police state is.
I throw this back on you, the curse of the talk show host back on you.
Go find out what a real police state is before you accuse me of ignoring one all around us.
I've got a very interesting letter here from somebody who really did work at Area 51.
And I am tempted to read it.
It could have come from the Information Agency, I'm sure, up there.
Maybe I will as the hour proceeds.
Oh, that mysterious rash.
I've got to get this in.
CNN was airing about an hour ago a very interesting story.
We talked last night with a microbiologist we had on.
Boy, was he good.
Boy, was he good.
About various things, and I asked him about the mysterious rash showing up in schools, mainly.
But tonight, CNN is saying this mysterious rash, which they have, and by the way they have no idea what it is, they say that scientists, microbiologists are scratching their heads.
But the mysterious rash now, check this out, folks, is appearing in Pennsylvania, New York, West Virginia, Virginia, Ohio, Oregon, and Washington.
So, from the east to the west coast, we've got something or another that's new here, and it causes itching everywhere.
Not just scratching one's head, but one's entire torso.
It shows up on the legs, the arms, the torso, everywhere.
Some kind of horrid little mysterious rash.
Pennsylvania, New York, West Virginia, Virginia, Ohio, Oregon, and Washington.

And they have been through so many tragedies that should have killed them so dead.
And they just came out without a hair must, you know.
And that made me remember Unbreakable.
And if you're Unbreakable, then you're probably immortal.
What's your situation?
unidentified
Well, sir, and in fact, we've spoken of this before, in fact.
In fact, the first time I was aware of it was when I was four years old, and I'll make this brief as far as the timeline.
But the first time I was aware of it, I was in Key West, Florida, and I saw so much of a vision, you might say, of almost an angelic kind of vision when I was four years old.
And at the time, I had even seen a TV, so it was kind of one of those more of a surprising and wide-awakening moments.
Then a year later, I was given a brief movie, almost a time splice in space as I was looking up and as I was sitting there swinging at a swing set in a private kindergarten, sir.
I can remember it was almost as real as just you and I talking here.
I mean, it was that real.
I could feel it.
What happened then shortly thereafter, sir, when I was seven years old, I can remember I was at a public pool, and a little boy that I was there watching with my family, he had actually wound up diving off into the deep end.
Well, amongst all the people who were there, none of them saw him except for me.
And with the assistance that you might say of something other than I can really, can't really put into mere words, I was, how you say, carried literally to that pool, put into the pool to save this little boy's life.
And as I remember going down, I can remember feeling the presence of something else besides myself and this child in the pool.
And that's probably the last thing I remember as I was going down, because I can remember lifting him up, and as I was going down, something else was reaching below.
And at that time, it was just me and the little boy in the water.
And yet, shortly thereafter, it was six months later, sir, that I can remember I was swimming out on a rocky reef, and this was in the same part of Florida.
My father and another friend of his were out.
They were scuba diving.
And at the time, sir, I was the man from Atlantis.
I mean, I lived in the water.
I loved it.
I remember going off about 100 yards off the water, and suddenly I remember just feeling a fear, sir, that I've never felt before in the water.
Suddenly, I was seethed, and I just remember dropping straight like a rock.
And then the last thing I see is something almost light, almost something reaching down towards me.
And at the time, there was nobody around.
And the next thing I remember, I'm laying there on the beach, and I'm like literally 100 yards away from where I was, and I'm just laying there going.
So in a way, then, you're thinking you are unbreakable, but by virtue of something that's watching over you?
unidentified
Yes, sir.
And in fact, I'll make this brief by saying that I had a couple other experiences later on in life where literally I saw literally the people that were watching me.
In fact, one night as I spoke to you about a story, and I know a lot of callers or listeners to your show that have listened to your Ghost to Ghost story.
But you really think, though, that those same forces.
unidentified
And I think a lot more people, and then they truly realize, have people like that around them.
And I think we're all surrounded by people either from our own past or from people that are perhaps, you know, like the old haunted house theory.
I think there are many levels of awareness and actually where we are as far as different existence of life.
And I think we all kind of bump into them.
And I think the invisible friends of children are a lot of times that are the people that are wandering around here perhaps before they make it to the next sign.
And I'm sure there are many who feel that way, as though they are unbreakable, not by virtue of the fact that they're actually unbreakable, but by virtue of the fact that something or somebody is watching over them.
And it may be true.
It really may be true.
Sometimes there is no other way to account for the fact that people walk away from things that are totally impossible to walk away from.
In fact, we had a car crash here in Prump recently, and all that was left of this automobile that hit a pole doing like 70 or 80 or whatever the speed was, and there was nothing left.
Nothing left of the car.
It was like when you were a kid and played with aluminum, you just crushed it all up.
That's how it was.
And yet, both of these men survived impossibly.
Absolutely impossibly.
East of the Rockies, you are on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Good morning, Art.
Hi.
Yeah, I can relate to the other caller.
I feel like sometimes I have nine lives, like a cat.
But I've, you know, my first car when I was younger, I was hit broadside by an 18-wheeler.
I mean, the car was crunched.
And, you know, right where my left arm, it should have been, like, crushed.
You know, I had no injuries, just a slight scuff, and I was sore for a day.
I understand that, but can you remember any intervention?
Can you remember anything odd about that instant, that moment, that could account for it?
unidentified
Well, I remember just being terrified and thinking this is it, that I was going to die, because after the truck hit me, I was going, you know, I was kind of pitched from the momentum in the car, and I kept expecting the car to just fold up around me, but it didn't.
Well, let's see, a couple years ago I was living in Boston and I, you know, a car turned into my path while I was on my bicycle and I just basically got thrown several feet and just rolled and got up without a scratch and wasn't even sore.
Yes, I had a feeling that there were people out there like this.
They, for the most part, of course, under normal circumstances, would not admit it.
And I would advise you, by the way, if somebody came to me and said, Art, you know, and they have, this is my condition, and I am virtually unbreakable and or immortal, however you want to look at it.
And I've received some very serious private inquiries about this sort of thing, as you can imagine.
That's another reason I'm talking about it tonight.
And I have advised these people not To seek publicity, not to make themselves public for a lot of what I consider very obvious reasons.
Being in Western Oregon, I'm only about four hours away from Yakima.
And so close examination is at hand, and I like that.
But I put much thought into it, and I've been listening to the rest of your shows, and I wanted to bring up something and tie in the other thing, other shows that pertain.
Sure.
I believe, quite possibly, Mel's Hole could be connected with those cities that they found that been underwater for about 1,150 years, 7,500.
As far as you were talking, is their technology, and this is something I, like you, I'm a skeptic, I don't take anything 100%, but I sure like to look at the possibilities.
And if they did indeed have a technology like that, something like Mel's Hole, whatever it is, might be connected.
Would be a technology that we don't understand, that to us would appear magic.
unidentified
Right.
I mean, if the properties he described as far as the burning ice and the most imagination staggering thing of the small creature coming out of a sheep, that I'd probably say six months ago there was no way I could believe it.
But through, I don't know, like I said, I'm a self-enlightened guy.
I meditate every single night, just trying to discover the secrets of life and the universe, as it were.
I think that the government would probably know what those are because they're I wonder if the government wanted Mel's hole in the first place because it represented a possibility for dumping nuke waste.
unidentified
That is a possibility, but I haven't heard of them.
You know, I think that they would have known what it was before, and I would think that they possibly have other ones under their control already.
With our luck, they wouldn't have moved on that one so fast.
We'd start dumping nuclear waste down something like Mel's Hole, and the whole hollow earth theory would turn out to be true, and there'd be some civilization down there, and when it began to rain radioactive pellets on them, boy, would they be pissed.
Probably declare war on us.
We've become part of the axis of evil.
The truth is, though, that we don't know a lot about the inner earth.
We think we know, and geologists would say, oh, yes, well, we know exactly what's down there.
I mean, right now, the scientists have no idea what it is.
They say it might be a new virus.
They don't have a clue.
And so you never know.
It involves children in school a lot.
So that part of it is scary.
And it's all the way from the East Coast to the West Coast.
It's pretty odd stuff.
unidentified
Yeah, my feeling was it was kind of like a volcano, that that was such a catastrophe.
You know, when a volcano goes off, it throws all this stuff in the air, and it will actually get caught up and go all the way around the world.
And I think something like this is beginning to happen with the particles and all the chemicals and things that were thrown into the air during that tragedy.
Well, I guess you can't really rule anything out, including that, but it sounds more like they're suspecting a virus.
Some sort of virus.
Now, the air they have measured, did you know the air in New York after the World Trade Center catastrophe, it was the worst air ever measured, and that includes even the oil fires in Kuwait that were set by the Iraqis at the end of the war.
Even to include that, and that was horrible.
So the air quality was even worse than that.
So you certainly couldn't rule it out with regards to New York, but I'm not so sure that like a volcano it would have spread as far west as Ohio and certainly Oregon, Washington.
This sounds like something else, but who knows?
A wildcard line, you are on the air.
Hello.
Hey, how's it going?
It's going okay, sir.
Where are you?
unidentified
I'm outside of Springfield, Missouri.
Okay.
And I was just responding to the thing you guys are talking about about the Immortal stuff.
Yes.
I happened to grow up with a guy who was kind of a very strange individual.
He was in the neighborhood and he wasn't quite right, but this guy had been shot in the head at point-blank range.
He was trying to, you know, like the barriers that come down when he tried to run through it and actually tried to beat the train, and he got carried down the track, like some 300 feet or so on top.
You mean like Wiley Coyote, man, boom, plastered against the train?
unidentified
He's the only person.
Matter of fact, when I seen that Bruce Willis movie, I was thinking of that guy because I was like, he's the only person I've ever known that's had those type of things happen.
So they'd constantly be on the move, and they'd probably every now and then have to virtually establish an entire new identity in life.
unidentified
Yeah.
I just thought it was really strange, this person.
I actually kind of was, you know, kind of feared, actually, because everybody knew the things he went through.
And, you know, everybody was kind of scared of this guy because they thought he was, you know, there's no point in, you know, getting in a fight with this guy because you're not going to hurt him, you know.
After last night's guest saying that if you can hang for the next 20 years, 10 or 20 years, they will deliver with genetics, they will deliver immortality unto us.
So it may be on the way anyway.
But it just may be that those of us who make it will join the others who already have it.

Well, I had a little bit after that, but I never heard this voice from the center of my head again.
I think what sort of triggered it, I'll make it real quick, what sort of triggered that?
Because people always try to figure out a trigger on some of this.
And two or three days before this started happening, I heard on the news that there was a major airline that was on strike, and they were explaining how the other airlines were having to take up the slack.
And I happened to think to myself, man, that's going to be really hard on all those other aircraft.
They're going to have to really keep up the maintenance on those, or there could be something bad go wrong.
And again, what you experience is precognition, and it's real.
Without hesitation, without any caveat whatsoever, I can tell you it's real.
I can't begin to tell you what it is, where it comes from, why it comes, what causes it, and why it never comes again, and why you can't make it happen.
I can't tell you any of that, but I can tell you it's real.
Happened to me only once.
It wasn't a voice in my head.
It was, I will compare it with gigantic crashing ocean waves that kept sweeping over me, telling me my car was going to be hit.
And I won't bore you all with this story.
Needless to say, after about three of these waves crashed over me, I went out and looked and watched some guy walk downside, walk in his car, put it in reverse, and hit my car.
So, you know, they do happen, but they're absolutely inexplicable.
Anybody who is thrown out of an automobile at 110 miles an hour and lands on pavement with oncoming traffic and doesn't get killed has, at the very least, a guardian angel.
At the very least.
How do these things happen?
How can that possibly be?
And she wasn't even the drunk one.
She said the driver was drunk.
And usually it's the drunks that somehow, somehow live through these incredible things.
Maybe because they're so loose and they don't have...
Who knows?
There's a million theories about it, and there's no way to really know.
Unfortunately, I am paralyzed, but the car accident, which doesn't make me quite unbreakable, but the car accident, what was left of the truck, you could not make a beer can out of.
And I was thrown from the vehicle.
And I survived with just a cut on my head, a slight scar on my arm, and my back was not broken.
Just the vertebrae slipped out and kinked the spinal cord slightly and slipped back.
How about lucky to be alive, and a few accidents before that, and I was number one in the nation in martial arts before that.
And had lived through a few I'm a small guy, super lightweight fighter, and fought a lot of the bigger guys that should have knocked me through the walls with, shall we say, and survived many of those punches.
They're gone now, so you got one while they were hot and there.
Thank you, my friend.
Take care.
Yes, they are amazing.
LED lights are amazing, period.
I think that very soon the old-fashioned flashlight is just going to pass from existence.
You know, the bulbs, the big current draw, the batteries, all the rest of it, it's just going to sort of pass from existence, and people will no longer use them.
I believe when you come in, you pick a certain scenario, and if you get away from that scenario, something steps in and puts you back in that scenario.
And I was told when I was younger that I had a guardian angel that kind of kept me on that track.
And there was quite a few things that happened in my life.
A couple of them was a musician, and I fell off a bandstand backwards, about seven feet.
And I was in a chair, and I should have cracked my head on the cement.
And I thought at the time, did I floated?
Everybody come running down expecting me to be dead, you know.
Well, the next day I'm talking to somebody who saw me fall from, you know, from another vantage point, and they said, it looked like you floated.
And I said, I thought I floated.
And they said, well, how did you manage that?
And I said, I don't know.
Another time, my life was saved by a pile of metal in a shop that just suddenly collapsed, and I would have been a grease spot on the cement.
But three people who were watching said that, and I couldn't remember what had happened, but they said that I had moved, but like a cut-out picture, if you know what I mean.
Nothing on me moved.
It's just that I shifted about three feet and I was a blur and it came crashing down.
And it was their description, not mine, that came to that conclusion.
I've come to the conclusion that it is a scenario.
There's one guy who wrote about he tried to kill himself about eight times, seven or eight times.
Finally, he decided to jump off a 10-story building.
He ends it up on a car going underneath, and he pancakes on top, and he ends up in a hospital all broken bones.
And he said, if there's one thing I've learned, you're not leaving this life until it's time.
Yeah, after eight tries, I would say I just, I'm about 70 now.
Looking over my life, I've come to the conclusion that it is programmed.
Everything may be, in a sense, predestined, and if it is not predestined to be your time, virtually, no matter what happens, it's not going to be your time.
I guess that's an age-old thought, huh?
But does that translate to virtual unbreakability and in some very rare cases, possibly immortality?
By the way, if you missed the beginning of the program, the U.S. is dropping envelopes on southern Afghanistan, and I might add some areas of Pakistan where they're carried.
The envelopes contain $100 bills or $200 bills, I'm not sure.
It says both, and a picture of George Bush.
Now, for those who just refuse to believe that we're doing such a thing, I told you I sent this to Keith, and if you'll go to my webpage under what's new and just go up instead of down and click on news and other websites, the very first thing that will strike you is a story entitled, U.S. Planes Rain Dollars on Afghanistan.
Our dollars.
They're bombing Afghanistan with $100 bills and pictures of the President of the United States.
I'm trying to think of why we're doing that.
And it hasn't yet occurred to me why we would do that.
You know, what we've noticed, though, is now, of course, it could be because your animal really can't talk, or it could be that when you shove a telephone in their snouts, they just become disinterested in doing what they do.
Well, he's 70 years old, and he's been through an amazing number of health-related issues.
Probably the most dramatic of which was he used to be a truck driver, and he was thrown from the truck because of some bad wheel mountings and hit by a car.
Laid up in traction for a while, but he's 100% fine today.
After that, got bladder cancer, recovered.
Had a stroke that caused an aphasia, recovered.
He had a botched hernia surgery that he went back to another doctor a year later.
The doctor said, hey, that first doctor never got it right the first time.
You know, I've heard you're talking about these people with these health problems due to the humming and these folks up in Canada that you said had some trouble.
And it sounds like fibromyalgia, which is something that I suffer from.
And, you know, cramping in the muscles.
And it comes up out of nowhere.
I'm beginning to think there's some external cause.
As a matter of fact, next week, I am Tuesday, I believe, I'm going to have a guest on weather modification.
Now, he's a journalist who has deeply researched weather modification.
I'm sure a lot of you have been waiting for this program, and I have too.
Until we do it, I'll not know whether it's the one that I've been waiting to do, but we're going to take a stab at it.
I believe that weather modification experiments have already been done.
We all know about seeding clouds, but I'm talking about something that goes far beyond the seeding of clouds, and that very serious weather modification has already been done.
Certainly the Russians promised a cyclone to Southeast Asia when they needed it, said they could do that by satellite, said they'd do it free of charge first time around.
So if the Russians can do it, we can do it and have done it.
And so we're going to have a guest on weather modification.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
Hello.
Hi, Art.
unidentified
Hi, Dan, and Idaho Falls.
Hey, Dan.
I'd like to inform the world that the Galactic Federation Fountain and Volcano Team has arrived in the last 24 hours.
Look, I appreciate it, but I've been around and around and around with this one a million times in my own mind, and you cannot have it both ways unless you take the position that free will is just a mockery.
That free will truly is a mockery, that you think you're making decisions for yourself.
You think you're acting with free agency or free will, if you will, but you're not.
You're actually a marionette on strings, doing exactly what you were destined to do from the very day you were conceived.
Or the very day you were born, depending on which you want to believe but you really cannot have your cake and eat it too you cannot say you have free agency and free will and everything is predestined I just can't get my head around that one east of the Rockies you're on the air amazing amazing is right yes of course Mr. Bell I'm not going to say how are you doing okay good I've talked to you before yes sir I had uh I have oh I'm
unidentified
I'm surprised I'm out here.
Okay.
I had a significant other, okay?
Yes?
Many years ago.
And I'd written Roberta a letter because she used to do the mail.
And that raises some pretty interesting questions.
Have you ever wondered yourself if you could do that?
If you could pick when you wanted to die, what do you think people would most...
unidentified
would you do what would I do yes that I would probably try and learn as much as I possibly could and once I got to a point where I felt like I had helped as many people as I possibly could through the knowledge that I gained through doing that I would just stop doing the cell regeneration on myself and just slowly grow old like I'm supposed to and die of whatever it is that takes me.
Well, I've never had that one, but I have nodded off at the wheel when I was much, much younger.
I can remember like that.
The head goes down and you back up and, oh my God, you're still on the road.
And boy, talk about an adrenaline rush.
It's like 25 cups of coffee all at once.
We'll be back.

I'm happy, come on a stand.
Oh, I've got a lesson to be saved.
What the people need is a way to make them smile.
It ain't so hard to deal with you now.
I'm happy, come on a stand.
A very old friend came by today, cause he was telling everyone in town all the love that he just found.
And Marie's the name of the lady's slave.
He talked and talked, and I heard him say that she had fucking hair, the prettiest green style anywhere.
and marie's a name of his latest flame I wished him luck and then he said goodbye He was gone but still his words kept returning What else was there for me to do with a cry?
Would you believe that yesterday's name of leave is faithful?
The tears inside were burning I whispered more than he said goodbye You're listening to Art Bell Somewhere in Time, tonight featuring a replay of Coast to Coast AM from February 15th, 2002.
So far this morning, a lot of those claiming to be virtually invincible, unbreakable.
Not exactly anybody saying yet they're immortal, but before the morning's gone, my guess is we'll get to that.
And anything else you want to do, completely open lines, anything you want to talk about?

You'll find it on Coast2Coast AM with George Norrie.
See, I think there are more secrets out there.
I think Fannie, Freddie, the banks are probably in deeper trouble than we are led to believe.
You have to either say these are just incompetent people or they're following an ideology or maybe even more nefarious, a game plan.
That's what I think is happening.
I don't think that they're stupid people.
I think they have a different agenda than we do.
Now we take you back to the night of February 15, 2002, on Art Bell, Somewhere in Time.
Believing in guardian angels, I probably had my first stitches before five, but at 15 went through a windshield with 100 stitches and totaled three cars in high school and, you know, that whole bit.
Okay, well, that's something I don't know what to attribute all of this to, but I know it's true because I've been receiving so many emails like this.
And then there are ones that are even stranger in the sense that I've been about 100 emails from people who have said, you know, I was headed directly into an intersection, blew a stoplight, and broadside.
I looked up and I was doing 80 and broadsided.
I was going to broadside this car only.
I didn't went right through it.
Passed right through it like it was invisible.
Now, there's some force at work.
Some people will call it a guardian angel.
Others will say it is some form of predestination, not your time, so it doesn't happen.
Some will say it's some other sort of intervention or some unbreakability.
I don't know.
But there is some strange force at work out there that seems to control when we come and go, if you follow me.
Well, so many of my guests, you know, really are just convinced that those that are out there are good.
And I'm just not one of those people.
I think it's an even shot.
unidentified
Yeah, I enjoyed seeing you coming out of the closet more than you normally do on nights like, in terms of that topic.
I was going back and forth, you know, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right.
But I kind of agree with you.
I think that it's not so much what they do that bothers me, it's what they haven't done.
I mean, look at it logically.
You've got really intelligent beings, you know, with powers of mind beyond ours, and maybe they're interdimensional, and they can maybe see into the future or whatever.
They've got high technology.
They've been here thousands of years.
And by comparison, we're kind of like cows in the pasture.
Well, I said the other night, you may have heard me say, that in my estimation, there may really be a prime directive, a non-interference kind of prime directive.
If there's any sort of galactic federation out there, I'm sure that exists.
It makes sense.
But that doesn't mean that somebody's not watching us and that somebody's not waiting for some prime real estate to become available.
unidentified
But of course, they've messed with our civilization.
I mean, they've given us technology and military stuff on the one hand, and yet they're not really helping us in any sense.
It's kind of like the military guy, you know, who ran into the aliens and he pulled his gun and he said, friend or foe?
And the aliens said, neither.
And then they said, do you want to go for a ride?
And he said, what's in it for me?
And he said, well, a new world if you can take it.
It's kind of a challenge almost.
It may be even a spiritual challenge.
If we were the beings that goofed up on Mars, maybe we deserve to be down here trying to find our way out.
And we may have to become shamans in order to find food in the future or whatever it is.
But kind of like the guy who spent nine days in the sensory deprivation chamber who developed his psychic abilities.
I mean, for me, I work 40 hours a week.
I don't have time to become spiritual or become a shaman or anything.
I have four little kids and I have my hobby farm.
I like to listen to you all night long.
And it may take some crisis in order for me to develop those abilities.
There's certainly many people who say that very thing is on the way and that people like you are going to suddenly become spirit, very, very spiritual, that some occurrence, some earth change, something undeniable is going to occur that's going to take everybody sort of on the 40-hour fence and tip them right over.
My radio, it plays 1360, but on your radio station, or they listen to you, but all I'm getting is like a 1200 station, and then it'll fade out, and then I'll have to switch between stations when you go on a break.
They are a 50,000 watt clear channel station on 1200 in San Antonio, Texas.
So that's amazing.
unidentified
So anyway, what I wanted to share with you was a have you ever heard of a waking dream?
Oh yes.
Well I understand what those are but this wasn't a waking dream because I guess a waking dream would be like you're kind of half awake illusive I think they call them lucid dreams yes.
Well um what happened with me was I was uh sleeping we have a guest bedroom and just where all our guests sleep and um uh I was sleeping in there and I had the door closed and then I woke up and like well first I had a dream.
It was a dream where um I was being chased by something and then all of a sudden I see this like this all of a sudden everything goes black and there's like this bass appears and I start hearing this really deep tone.
And then um and then I wake up and I can't move and I can't talk and I can't I'm just like I'm like I'm awake, fully awake.
And um I see this like black mist hanging over me.
Like a very dark cloud.
And so um anyway um so I'm like can't move and I'm like I can like mumble like barely.
Yeah, it's it's called being paralyzed and it's a state you reach prior to leaving your body.
In other words, you could have an OBE if you continued with that and let yourself roll into it and let the experience continue.
And most people don't, I'm one of them.
It's just too scary to let go of that much control.
That's when you have an OBE.
Again, I call your attention.
I'm really puzzling on this story tonight.
The story is, U.S. planes rain dollars on Afghanistan, not just dollars, but $100 bills, along with a picture of George Bush.
Now, I was thinking, wouldn't there be a number of locations here in the United States that could use $100 bills falling in envelopes with pictures of our president or any other president?
We have many of them on bills, falling down upon people.
A lot of areas of the country where that would go over really well.
But instead, we're doing it at taxpayer expense in Afghanistan.
I don't know about that.

Tonight, an encore presentation of Coast to Coast AM from February 15, 2002.
I'm dancing, baby, on my shoulders.
I'm just gonna cut my face, my life is running in the sky.
I'm just gonna tell you what I mean.
Everything, always wanting more.
Feeling you're longing for Black Fell, but a nice baby boy smiles.
Black fell and we'll let the gold summons down.
A new religion that'll bring us to me when you hear me dawn you hear me in some way.
The love you gave me, nothing else to save me, it's no way When you're gone, how can I even start to go on?
When you're gone, go out, try, how can I carry on?
You seem so far away, though you are sending me You make me feel alive, but something died like me I really tried to make it out, I feel like I'm in the truth What happened to our love, it used to be so good
So when you hear me, darling, can you hear me, it's no way The love you gave me, nothing else to save me, it's no way When you're gone, how can I even start to go on?
When you're gone, go out, try, how can I carry on?
When you're gone, go out, try, how can I carry on?
Premier Radio Networks presents Art Bell Somewhere in Time.
Tonight's program originally aired February 15, 2002.
Yeah, but I mean, wouldn't you like to be in the room, and here's the guy who says, come on, let's put some $100 bills in envelopes with pictures of the president.
Drop them.
unidentified
Yeah, I don't know where they get their ideas.
I'm not unbreakable, but I'm kind of like Silly Putty.
I just took my break from tank driving for 18 hours and just jumped in there and some semi came after us, aimed right at us, and after we bounced around a quarter mile down the road, he was out there.
The others who will have an accident one-tenth as serious as anything he just described, and they're, you know, they're moving on.
So there is another force or forces that are at work in this world that interweave and intertwine with our lives and seem to affect them or assist us or prevent things from happening.
You've heard people describe just being moved out of the way like a blur, as fast as a blur, not walking, not running, but just blurring out of the way of something that otherwise obviously would have killed them on the spot.
I interviewed Jim Berkeland last night, and he gave us the Kohl's prediction as well.
And I have this earthquake kind of feeling, yeah.
unidentified
Okay.
I was in meditation, and I was warned that when the nuclear bomb hits that there'll be somebody dead on the Pacific coast at the same time, and I believe it's just going to jar it right off, or whatever it's going to be doing.
But if there was something catastrophic to happen, I believe that our children, our innocent, will know two days beforehand because I believe that they get special communication from their guardians when they're going to either transcend or lose a parent or something.
As a matter of fact, the Coles prediction, certainly the Brickland prediction, centers around the closest the moon will be to the Earth in a very long time.
I think he said within a couple of hundred miles of the closest it can ever be in all time to Earth.
And so with reference to her first question, I can begin to feel a little beginning, building pressure right now about something or another.
That's all.
Nothing specific.
But if I were you, I would have listened very carefully to last night's first hour.
You know, how I, I don't want to speak for everybody, of course, but if you have a strange kind of experience, just once in your life, you tend to push it in the back of your mind because you feel it's abnormal and you don't know who to discuss it with.
If it happens to you all the time, then different types of experiences, then you start asking why.
And before you ask, and then after you ask why, you ask why me.
To give you an example, if you almost die or die and pass over, you realize that everything you learn in this plane has nothing to do with the other side.
All you have to do over there is think, and it is.
Think yourself to one spot and you're there.
What you learn here doesn't matter.
So why would anyone go through all of this and learn this?
Say, for instance, Angels, or any subjects you want to talk about.
This all started when I was six years old, and I just kept shelving it and pushing it back and pushing it back and pushing it back.
When I was introduced to your show, I thought, well, if I call enough, someone will say, hey, this guy needs to talk to so-and-so, or he has to go and see these people, and then he'll understand.
Because I'm 57 years old.
What's the point?
You know what I mean?
When would I ever use this kind of information?
But I'm going to tell you a quick story that just gives you an idea.
I've spoken to you before, and Barbara also.
I was prompted to move to Florida.
I mean by that during meditations, inner voices, inner movings.
But the point is, before my company even offered its first early retirement, I was planning to leave.
And then suddenly this came up, the retirement, the whole deal, and I could go.
And I came here.
And nothing happened.
And I thought something exciting would happen.
So I'll give you an example.
Last spring, in meditation, I was saying, I'm tired of this.
I really want something to happen to let me know that I'm still in this for whatever reason.
I forgot about it.
That was like on a Thursday.
Saturday, I was doing some painting in my house, so I decided I'd run down early to the dollar store and buy some brushes.
And when I got there, I realized they opened at 10 o'clock, and there was only one car in the parking area at that end of the mall.
And I knew they opened.
One store was empty on one side, the other side was like a post office.
It was an old car, cream and green-colored DeSoto, like from the 50s, but in nice shape.
And I didn't think it belonged to the owner, but I went in the store, and I was a little hesitant because I didn't see him standing in the window at the register.
I walked in, the bell rang, no one was there.
I walked through the aisle towards the back room where he might be, and I called out, and he answered me.
No sooner did he answer me, there was a flutter, and this little woman came from around the shelving.
And I'd say the shelving was about, I'm 6'3, it was a little bit lower than my shoulders.
She just breathed past me.
When I looked away from her and looked back to where I expected him to come out of the door, there was a tall woman standing there looking across at me.
Very pretty woman, alabaster skin, 70, white hair, very, very pretty.
He came out of the door, went all the way around the outside pyramid of the store, and headed towards his register.
I took the brushes I wanted and I walked back.
When I got back to where the register was, the bell rang again.
A couple walked in, a young couple, with a gorgeous little girl, looked like Shirley Temple.
And she had her hands up over her face, and she was giggling.
Absolutely beautiful child.
Mesmerizing to look at.
Her big blue eyes I could see over the top of her fingertips.
Her mother and father, or who I thought was her mother and father, was speaking a language I never heard before.
Another couple came in, distracted me.
The elderly woman, the little woman was in front of me at the register.

Or even if you could live for as long as you wanted, would that be a good thing?
I'm not sure.
I have this feeling, though, that in the next 10 or maybe 20 years, we're all going to find out, we're going to have that choice.
and when that choice comes to you i wonder what you'll say I don't want it.
Take it away.
Or, go ahead, swab right here.
I'm ready for the shot.
It's hard to say.
It's kind of interesting to toy with the concept, though, since we apparently are getting so close to it.
Stay right where you are and we'll get back to it.

I argue with people about disclosure time and time again.
I've told them governments are not going to come out willingly to tell us it's going to happen by a mistake, it's going to happen by a whistleblower, but it's not going to be an organized thing.
Governments won't do that.
And the reason why they won't do it is because they do not want us to know.
They think that they'll lose control of us if we know.
If you actually truly believe that we were being visited by extraterrestrials and you had categorical proof that it was happening, do you think you would listen to some of the bull that government throws out all the time?
Absolutely not.
You'd look toward the heavens, you'd say there's got to be a better way, and you would start doing your own thing.
And you would forget all about government control and everything else.
So the bottom line is government will never, ever disclose the true facts of UFOs.

And when you have the gift, you, now that I'm older and I've had some very bad physical, you know, I'm all screwed together and platy together and I got a lot of steel in me and you learn to not take chances.
not to test it as much and cherish it and not put it to the test.
I'm glad that you, with age, have begun to acquire some little bit of wisdom and have stopped taking such chances.
You know, well, yes, I did do that.
My thing, of course, was flying, and I always wanted to fly, and so I went hang gliding and promptly proved to myself that there's nothing immortal or even semi-immortal about me.
I promptly broke, had a compound fracture about two inches above the elbow.
Trust me, that's a bad place to get a compound fracture.
A couple inches above the elbow, very bad.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
Hello.
unidentified
Hello.
Hi.
I was calling about immortality to one that's done through cell regeneration, if that was the possibility, one of the possibilities.
You know, we're on the verge as a civilization of immortality genetically, and so it would make sense that if there are people who have something close to it now, it would be passed on genetically.

Right.
But to address the overpopulation problem that might arise from that, it seems like if you could control on a cellular level with your mind or even through science, you could figure out a way to, you know, if you could, if I could regenerate myself to continue to make myself young, it seems like as a woman, I might also be able to do something cellular within my body to prevent myself from getting pregnant.
Well, I think that that was mentioned by last night's microbiologist, that it would probably be, you know, a requirement of becoming immortal.
That they would, you know, flip the genetic switch that would not allow you to reproduce.
unidentified
Yeah.
It also seems as though if scientists could live longer, many of them that are on the verge of doing certain technological advances would live long enough to do that.
And we could maybe start to colonize space.
We could colonize other planets or we could maybe build space stations and control the population on this planet that way.
I have a quick question for you, and I just want to listen to it off the air, but the question is, have you ever seen that movie First Contact, that Star Trek movie?
Number one, I really, really, really am not at all convinced that when they do arrive, and they will eventually arrive, that they're going to be friendly.
And I just don't know why we continue to make that assumption.
And we really do.
Nine out of ten guests that I will have on the subject will think that have already concluded that they are benign at worst and friendly and ready to help us out at best.
And I just don't buy into that.
I really don't.
I drift more toward Dr. Jacobs.
And if you look at what they're doing right now, as I said, somebody wrote me something earlier about what we do with animals.
And what do we do with them?
We take animals from the wild frequently and we tag them.
We identify them.
We check them for health.
We tag them.
And then we release them.
And in some cases, we have little devices on those tags to track them.
And when you sit down and really think about it, how different is that from the described abduction experiences that we hear about?
Anyway, I remember a long time ago hearing some statistics.
They were talking about if we were to live like, you know, like double, triple our life expectancy now, that, you know, say we don't become invincible, that eventually like that increases our risk of, say, like, you know, something stupid happening to us, like a tree falls on us and kills us, and eventually I guess we'll get wiped out that way, you know.
Well, I suppose, yeah, if you were essentially unbreakable, if you were immortal, save, like, as he just explained, a tree falling on you or something catastrophic like that, then everybody would be getting extra careful.
I mean, if you really cherished your immortality, and you could be immortal, save something really awful like that, or a plane crashing into the ground, then the population would tend to get really extra careful, wouldn't they?
Probably to the point of being totally ridiculous about it all.
Do you think there would still be people out there who would always push the limit?
You know, the people who would do the 150 miles an hour on the motorcycle just for the thrill of it, that kind of thing, probably would go away.
It was a very interesting show, and I was wondering if you have any more information.
He was saying about this trip they plan to go to Canada, but they didn't say we're at in Canada, where it would be a safe place in Canada because it's such a large country.
I mean, that water vapor is a very, certainly by comparison, harmless thing.
Water vapor, my goodness, there's plenty of water vapor around.
Water vapor, I would not think, would tamper in an adverse way with the ecology or the climate.
And if you compare water vapor as a product of the combustion that's moving your butt around or doing whatever to what's presently coming out and going into the atmosphere, I think there's really no contest, is there?
Yes, and as you're probably aware, Art, that song was written by Jimmy Webb, who also wrote a lot of the big hits for Glenn Campbell back in the late 60s, early 70s.
The other occasion was going through a major intersection, and I had the green light, and apparently the bridle stuck on another vehicle, the 74 Delta 88 Oldsmobile.
I was in a 78 Toyota Silica, and they hit me on the passenger side and drove me 216 feet down the road into a telephone pole on my side.
you've got up and walked away yes well haven't you ever i'm I figure there's probably a pretty good reason I'm still around.
There must be.
It sounds like you're in a truck now.
unidentified
Yes, I am.
I pulled off to call you.
By the way, I'm listening to WOAI San Antonio, and I'm in Bailington, Tennessee, which is about halfway from, well, I guess about 30 miles south of the Virginia line.
A triple-axle-loaded truck runs right over you, and you sort of get up and dust yourself off.
That's amazing.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Hello.
unidentified
Oh, hello.
Hello.
Let's see.
Well, I have a few.
When I was little, when I was like three months old, and then when I was about a year, I was really sick, and they told my parents, you know, say goodbye.
This is the last time you'll see her.
because they thought I was going to die.
And then...
I had real bad asthma and I was born like a month and a half early.
And then one time I was driving, I live in Austin.
I was driving along 35 and I guess the car hit a patch of grease or something and the car turned totally around so I was facing the wrong way in traffic.
One of the things that I had written reports on just out of curiosity was a lot of things you're talking about on the air now.
But the one report that I had written was to warn mankind, if you will, to stop changing the flow of the waters and stop digging holes in the earth because we're changing the gravity balance of the earth altogether.
Actually, there are people who believe, for example, and it may be true, that the dams that we put up, for example, actually slow the rotation of the earth.
It's weird to think about, but I'm told that science believes it to be true.
unidentified
That I would believe.
It's like taking that weight you have on your wheel because it creates a good balance when you're turning on the highway.
Right.
This is the same concept.
If you change the balance around, your wheel won't turn even anymore.
Many, many people believe that, that the changes that we make, particularly those major changes that alter large bodies of water and that sort of thing, actually could change, slow perhaps the rotation of the Earth.
I wonder if there might be a dimension where English is the language, only in reverse.
unidentified
Yes, and it's really odd.
I just learned that because ever since I was about five years old, I've had these experiences where I will wake up totally paralyzed and there's a weight on my chest and I go someplace else and I don't know where it is.
All right, and I'm type rated, and so I fly this stuff.
And some of the planes I fly in, I look at their history, find out where they've been at, and I have really some of the most horrible nightmares of my life.
But the funny thing that came out of it all was that years later, went to visit an aged relative of one of my aunts and went to visit him in the hospital, and he was close to death.
And he came back, like my aunt said, he really enjoyed talking to you.
And he said, and then he said, that boy said for something special.
