Description

The Montauk Project: The Truth is Darker Than You Think In 1943, the USS Eldridge was made invisible and teleported from Philadelphia to Virginia. This event was known as the Philadelphia Experiment. When the Eldridge reappeared, some crew materialized in walls and bulkheads. They died in agony. But two sailors didn't reappear at all. The two men, who happened to be brothers, were presumed dead or lost. They weren't dead. They traveled 40 years into the future; in a secret military base on the East end of Long Island. They became unwitting participants of The Montauk Project. #Mystery #Conspiracy #Unsolved 〰 🙏 SUPPORT THE WHY FILES 🙏 https://www.patreon.com/thewhyfiles (Fun, Free Perks!) 👽 BUY WHY FILES MERCH 👽 https://shop.thewhyfiles.com (Code: LIZZIDPEEPLE for 10% off first order) 💬 CHAT WITH US ON DISCORD 💬 https://thewhyfiles.com/discord 〰 🌐 OFFICIAL WEB SITE: https://thewhyfiles.com 🕵️ Submit a topic, suggestion or just say hi: 🕵️ https://thewhyfiles.com/tips 🎨 Have a product suggestion or want to design artwork for TWF? 🎨 https://thewhyfiles.com/merch 📸 BE A WHY FILES MODEL (and get free stuff!) 📸 Send a photo of you/family/friends watching TWF, 📸 wearing TWF gear, using TWF merchandise: 📸 https://thewhyfiles.com/wild 〰 🎧 THE PODCAST VERSION 🎧 https://thewhyfiles.com/podcast 〰 ⁍ TWF on SOCIAL (in order of importance) ⁍ https://www.reddit.com/r/TheWhyFiles/ ⁍ https://twitter.com/OMGTheWhyFiles ⁍ https://www.instagram.com/OMGTheWhyFiles ⁍ https://www.tiktok.com/@thewhyfiles ⁍ https://www.facebook.com/OMGTheWhyFiles 〰 🐠 BETTER CHANNELS TO WATCH: 🐠 https://www.youtube.com/c/HecklefishMoriarty 🤓 https://www.youtube.com/c/TheWhyFilesBackstage ---- SOURCES & LINKS The Montauk Project: Experiment in Time https://amzn.to/3RGE9fT Debunking Al Bielek: https://web.archive.org/web/20190720100550/http://bielek-debunked.com/Bieleks%20past.html Debunking Steward Swerdlow: https://lunaticoutpost.com/thread-81579.html Watch the Montauk Chronicles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOKzxYfbjww -- THANK YOU MODS: Daniel_Van_Auken Diamond Dust jengen13 OriginalJim pratty505 VictoriaY Y'all are the best!

"I'm not saying the guys a fraud, but I am saying a judge said he was." Best line ever! This is my favorite episode so far. Sooo many questions...

It’s really disgusting that so many people have used this story for entertainment without telling the truth about it. Thank you for doing that.

The first rule of the Montauk Project is never talk about the Montauk Project...
