    The Philadelphia Experiment
    By Bill Knell
    Posted: 5/1/2004

    From: http://www.paranormalnews.com/article.asp?ArticleID=999

    The Philadelphia Experiment is a story that refuses to die. For over sixty years the tale of U.S. Government experiments with invisibility, time travel and mind control have been the crux of what started at the Philadelphia Navy Shipment as a project to demagnetize warships in the early 1940s. Despite denials by the Navy, in-depth investigations by debunkers and a world full of scientists who say it wasn’t possible in the 1940’s and still isn’t today, a steady flow of new witnesses and evidence seems to support the story.

    Ronald Mallett, theoretical physicist and professor at the University of Connecticut, stated in 2001 that recent experiments with light make time travel possible. Those experiments proved that light can be slowed, then returned to its normal speed. Mallett felt that this new information provided positive theoretical implications for time travel theorists. But that’s theoretical and pails in comparison to what the Philadelphia Experiment and Montauk Project may have already accomplished.

    I’ve presented hundreds of seminars on the UFO cover-up which includes information that I have about the Philadelphia Experiment and Montauk Project. I also maintain a website with short versions of those stories available to read. Given that, people often contact me when they come across anything related to those topics. Such was the case a few weeks ago when I received a call from a person I will call Virginia, a homeowner from a costal Maryland town. I cannot be more specific until we iron out all of her privacy concerns.

    Virginia retired last year and purchased a home near the Maryland Coast. The house she bought was 85 years old and needed some major repairs. Virginia and her husband planned to spend about three months preparing the home for their use. Most of the needed repairs involved an interior facelift. A small room with an old desk and empty file cabinets on the second floor of the two story home was slated to become a part of a larger room next to it with the removal of a wall. Some old suitcases, empty packing crates and other debris had been left in there as well.

    With contractor work scheduled to begin within a few days, Virginia, her husband and two friends went to work removing everything from the small room. They moved the desk and file cabinets out first, then began bundling up the old suitcases and various pieces of debris left in the corners of the small room. While the four worked, Virginia began to feel a bit sick to her stomach. Her husband and friends complained of similar feelings over the next few moments. Before any of them had time to consider they’re sudden, unexplained illness, an odd green mist filled one corner of the room.

    As all present were focused on the green mist, they could see a human form taking shape. It looked like a man dressed in what all agreed later was a sailor’s white uniform. It did not appear to be a modern uniform, but one that might have been worn fifty or sixty years ago. None were familiar with Naval Uniforms, but the group came to this conclusion after viewing photos of U.S. Sailors from the 1940‘s. Within seconds, the man became solid and started to move a bit. Virginia’s husband had been an electrician for years before he retired and noted that he smelled the odor of over-heated circuitry in conjunction with the Sailor‘s appearing.

    Before anyone could say or do anything, the sailor looked at the group and said, “2005. Watch out for 2005! They’re playing with your future!” After that, the Sailor faded into the wall and the green mist dissipated in less then ten seconds. All agreed later that they had heard his voice and everyone heard the same thing. They described the Sailor’s voice as deep and full, but sounding a bit muffled.

    For at least an hour after the event the group talked about what had happened. Each described what they had felt happened and it was obvious that they had all seen and heard the same thing. The four felt as though they wanted to get out of that house, but none could bring themselves to leave the small room. Suppose the Sailor came back? Virginia brought some sandwiches up to the room while the others stayed to keep watch, but nothing further happened. They completed the work on the room and ended the day by agreeing not to speak to anyone about the event until they could meet in a few days to discuss it again.

    The incident with the Sailor occurred on February 12, 2004. Virginia, her husband and their two friends got together a few days after it to discuss what should be done. Virginia and her husband had gone back and carefully examined the area in the small room where the Sailor had appeared. There was no physical evidence that they could see to indicate anything strange had happened. After reporting this to her friends, Virginia indicated that she had spent some time online to see if this had happened to anyone else. While digging for information, Virginia came across my website. She and her husband read the articles I had available about the Philadelphia Experiment and Montauk Project, sharing the information with her friends.

    As a group, they decided to order the video set I had available on the two subjects before contacting me or anyone else. By the end of March, all had watched the videos and been stunned at the information they contained. According to Virginia, none of these people had any particular interest in or feelings about paranormal topics prior to the strange event involving the Sailor. But all agreed the incident had happened and none could find a logical explanation for it. At that point, the group decided to contact me.

    After speaking with Virginia, I made arrangements to visit these people and examine the room for myself. I was able to spend three days in the area and spoke with each person in-depth during that time. Although I found no physical evidence to support their story beyond the existence of the room and the way they said it looked, I was impressed by their individual accounts. None of these people seemed willing to add or subtract from what they claimed happened and all their accounts matched up perfectly.

    Although I am only in the first stages of investigating this event, I honestly believe that these people had related a true account to me of an actual event they experienced. I have no idea and cannot even speculate if the appearance of the Sailor was connected in any way to The Philadelphia Experiment or Montauk Project, but I do feel that the Sailor was probably not a ghost, random vision or an image from the past being played back in the present. This seemed to be a purposeful visit.

    My concern is whether or not the warning about 2005 was directed at these individuals or to people in general. None of the group involved had knowledge of any relatives or close friends who may have served in the Navy in the present or recent past. All agreed to speak with their families to find out if there is such a connection, but none wanted to share their experience with relatives or other friends at this point.

    This event could turn out to be a very important one if the message from the Sailor was directed to more then just the group involved. That is the nature of the Philadelphia Experiment and Montauk Project. The Government seems to know what such cryptic messages mean, but we are left to speculate or live with the consequences. Had I understood what Al Bielek and Preston Nichols related to me in the late 1980’s, I would have done everything possible to warn people about 9/11. But I didn’t understand it and neither did they. All we had was their account of traveling to a future point in New York City and viewing the aftermath of a terrific disaster.

    It’s fortunate that I captured the conversation with Preston and Al on video, or I would look back and wonder if I could have derived more from what they said and have done something to warn people. But I’ve watched the video many times and see that while the description was perfect, no specific date was available. Remember, they were seeing the aftermath of the World Trade Center attacks without any knowledge of who caused them or when.

    If the message from the Sailor is a warning to all of us and the U.S. Government knows the nature of the threat, I hope they will take action or prepare us for the worst. Given what has happened to date, I do not see this happening.

    I always enjoy a good paranoid conspiracy. Obviously, there are going to be skeptics calling this guy crazy, but I dunno. Anything's possible.

    The Philadelphia Experiment and the Montauk Project made for an excellent movie, but I think that's as far as it goes.

    Why do I get a feeling that he's trying to indirectly advertise his books and movies and whatever?

    I feel more inclined to believe that he's a phony paranormal expert trying to push his merchandise.

    I believe in this as much as I believe in God, or afterlife, or ghosts, or deja vu or ouija boards, etc. It's all perfectly plausible yet improbable.

    though i believe that a story like this couldn't exist without SOME truth to it, this is going just way to far. It wouldn't surprise me if the U.S. actaully was experimenting with that stuff, but I don't think it's possible for something like this to actaully happen lmao. and i agree with BtV, he's just looking to make money in my opinion.

    'Nuff said.

    The whole Philadelphia Experiment is a load of bull. Invisibility and teleportation seem much too alluring for the Government to pursue after achieving, even if it had bad effects on people. It's not like that ever stopped them before, or after, for that matter.

    People are stupid.

    Scientists are already able to consistantly teleport various particles such as photons, what makes you think that it isn't possible that one day, by mistake, a large scale version of this occured?

    True, in all technicality, it *is* possible, but it's got about the same odds of happenning as a wormhole opening up under your feet and sending you into a paralell universe, or 30 pounds of antimatter particles simultanneously appearing from nothing here on earth, annihilating with the air and destroying the planet. Basically, the odds against something larger than an atom accidentally quantumm tunnelling is so astronomical that it should be considered impossible.

    This isn't a natural occurence though, the elements have been preset by human hands allegedly in the form of several generators and two gigantic Tesla Coils which manipulated the electromagnetic field around the ship, causing it to disappear from plain sight. The ship then appeared several miles away (ie: a glitch), and then restabilized in its original position after approx 1-2 hours.

    And as to the comment on the dark matter, here's to finding a safe and efficient means of stabilizing and evenly distributing the stuff in order to replace our contemptable oil based economy with free energy for everyone.

    I said antimatter, not dark matter. We have no idea what dark matter is - it's nonluminous, and the only reason we think it's there is because the universe seems to be much more massive than what we can see would suggest. In all probability it's just intersteller dust and gas.

    As for antimatter, we've only managed to get it a few atoms at a time, and that's, for the most part, when we make it ourselves - it's actually what makes a PET scanner work (Positron Emission Tsomething - Transmission?) And we've detected it in minute quantities as cosmic rays. But for the most part, it doesn't seem to exist in nature, and it will not be a viable energy source until we can learn to create sizeable quantities of it ourselves. Which will probably be centuries, since simply creating it out of nothing breaks laws of thermodynamics, and we've only managed to generate it through collisions of particles moving nearly the speed of light - something we can't manage with anything larger than an atom.

    As for quantum tunneling a ship at all, the way quantum tunneling works at all, as I understand it, has to do with the wavelike properties of a particle. When a particle hits a barrier, its waveform does not fall abruptly to zero, but rather decays exponentially across. The result is that the waveform may be non-zero on the far side of the potential barrier, and thus, there is a possibility that the particle will be found on the other side of ther barrier. Since the probability decreases exponentially, teleporting an entire ship any distance is less likely than another big bang happening off the coast of maine.

    I suppose that there's the remote possibility they found some other way to teleport a ship, but the only two serious suggestions I have ever read are either to find a way of quantum tunnelling large objects over long distance (something they almost certainly weren't trying to do, I'm not even sure they had theorized about quantum tunnelling back then), or involves disassembling an object atom by atom and reassembling it atom by atom at the desired site.

    Anyway, I'd be extraordinarily suprised if the Philadelphia Experiment ever happened. I have never, EVER, known of an instance where something taken seriously in any kind of paranormal news ever turned out to be true.

    What about the Turin Shroud, of which portions have been carbon dated to almost precisely 0 A.D? Or the Kraken (ie: collosal squid), of which we've found a premature specimin nearly fifty feet long? Or the Freemasons/Illuminati, whose existence is irrefutable?

    I believe myself to possess as stable a mind as most, however I refuse to disregard any evidence until I've personally researched it to the maximum of my capabilities. Using the cliched examples, the world used to be flat, omnipotent invisible men sitting on clouds manipulated our every action and heroin was used as a cough supressant. Particle physics has taken leaps and bounds within the past decade especially with our recent discovery of sub-atomic particles (muons, neutrinos, quarks, etc) what's to say that we won't find another layer of particles which lends Superstring more credibility, for example? No one knows what our future technological advancements have in store for us and it is merely limiting our potential to blatantly disregard any account, regardless of its eccentricity.
