The Most Terrifying Theory in Human Consciousness : The "Walk-In" Soul
- **(00:04-01:22)** Introduces the walk-in phenomenon as a soul swap in a body after clinical death or near-death experience (NDE), challenging personal identity and suggesting bodies are like rental cars that can be transferred to new souls.
- **(01:22-02:32)** Discusses Capgras delusion as a potential misdiagnosis, where people believe loved ones are replaced by imposters, and contrasts it with the esoteric idea of actual soul replacement ignored by modern psychology.
- **(02:32-03:59)** Explains walk-ins as consensual soul transfers, unlike hostile possessions, where the original soul exits due to burnout or trauma, allowing a new soul to enter for efficiency, often without others noticing.
- **(03:59-06:05)** Details how walk-ins occur during catastrophic events like accidents or NDEs, creating an "exit point" for the original soul to leave and a new one to integrate, leading to confusion and messy adjustment phases.
- **(06:05-08:29)** Explores pre-birth contracts where souls agree to limited terms, with "builder souls" handling early life before handing over to advanced souls for missions, emphasizing cosmic efficiency but risking biological and energetic rejection.
- **(08:29-11:07)** Describes integration symptoms like sudden allergies, fatigue, personality changes (e.g., diet shifts, new skills), loss of emotional attachments, and how families might dismiss them as post-trauma effects.
- **(11:07-15:32)** Covers Ruth Montgomery's 1979 book "Strangers Among Us," which popularized walk-ins as evolved beings entering bodies to influence humanity, tying into the 1980s New Age movement and reframing trauma as upgrades.
- **(15:32-19:37)** Classifies types: wanderers (higher-density helpers), braids (shared souls), and walk-outs (departing originals); contrasts with psychological views like dissociative identity disorder (DID), debating internal fragments vs. external entities.
- **(19:58-25:19)** Presents quantum antenna theory of consciousness (e.g., Penrose-Hameroff), where brains receive signals, enabling swaps during NDEs, alongside psychological trauma responses that fracture identity for survival.
- **(25:43-32:11)** Outlines three signs: physiological changes (e.g., eye color shifts), sudden new skills, and biological rejection (e.g., animals/children reacting negatively); ends with existential implications, identity paranoia, and a call for viewer stories.

Epstein's Largest Property Sits Above Something Ancient | New Mexico's D...
Epstein's Largest Property Sits Above Something Ancient | New Mexico's Deepest Secret - YouTube
Transcripts:
What if I told you that I found a pattern that seems to connect Jeffrey Epstein, UFOs, secret underground bases, and strange beings that live inside the Earth? I'm not making any definitive statements here. I'm just examining the evidence with an open mind. So, with that being said, I want to pick this video up in 2004 um when a young South African woman named Juliet Bryant woke up paralyzed on an examination table.
And we talked about her last time. She's the one who said she witnessed Epstein turn into a monster, into like this lizard, into like a reptilian being, something indicating that he was like a hologram of himself, but behind the Jeffrey Epstein facade is something else, something more ancient, something darker.
And what we're going to talk about today directly correlates with that, but it takes it one step further. So, she woke up on this examination table in 2004 and she claimed to be not wearing any clothes and she was surrounded by figures wearing hazmat suits. I do have a clip of her talking about this. I'm going to play it in a minute, but she wasn't at a hospital when she woke up, right? She was at a place called Zoro Ranch.
And if you haven't heard of Zoro Ranch, it's a pretty interesting place to say the least. It's a 10,000 plus acre compound in New Mexico in the desert. um owned and operated by none other than Jeffrey Epstein himself. So she tells a story that is pretty fantastical and some people might discount it outright, but when you take her story and you connected to dots that have existed for a long time, considering not only the location that Jeffrey Epstein's ranch sits on, also the surrounding areas or some of the things that the people who
have lived in New Mexico have talked about and have described for hundreds or thousands of years in some cases. It seems like that this isn't a coincidence, but it may be part of a larger pattern. >> The only people I met there were like scientists and Michael Bay, the movie producer who made the movie The Island about cloning.
I met Michael Bay there in 2004 in New Mexico. So, I suddenly realized maybe Michael Bay was at Epstein's property doing research. Cuz when I met Michael Bay and scientists there, I would see them on the tops of the properties. I'd see them there, but I'd never really see them again. and I'd meet them like once or twice and then I I'd never see the rooms they were staying in or anything, you know, and it made me realize that there's very likely something underneath there, you know, and um also cuz I saw them turn into that thing. There's just a and the UFO
that I saw that was while Michael Bay was staying there in New Mexico when I saw that and had that flashback waking up in a laboratory. Well, I saw in New Mex in New Mexico, I saw a UFO in the sky, you know, and then I've got that flashback weird memory waking up in a laboratory with six people in hazmat suits around me and a female doctor and I couldn't move.
I was like paralyzed and I was naked and I couldn't couldn't move. I couldn't talk. And then this doctor came near my head and she said, "Don't worry, everything's okay." And I was out again. And just after like um yeah, after just digging and digging and digging, I realized, you know, if these bastards really do drink blood, if they really do children, it would make sense for them to have their own farm of humans.
So going by her story, by her testimony, by what she saw or what she claims she saw, why would a man like Jeffrey Epstein, a man who came from nothing by all accounts and somehow amassed this large wealth of billions of dollars, why would he build a massive compound in one of the most UFO active regions on planet Earth? Do you think it's any coincidence that his ranch sits in a place that, let's just say, it's riddled with stories and tales of underground bases corroborated by the people who live there, as well as the native tribes who
have occupied that territory, that land for millennia, as well as scientifically documented cave systems that are some of the largest in the world. And when you take all that and you include the fact that the people of New Mexico have talked about strange occurrences, strange sightings, strange happenings in that land for millennia, well, I think it starts to paint a picture, a bigger picture of something that may have been happening there that Epstein might have been connected to.
Well, let's just say it would be a really good reason for them to keep these files hidden and to redact everything because if this stuff came out, if it's true and it comes out or it came out, well, it would change everything. All right. So, I want to ask you the question today. Was Jeffrey Epstein connected to something that's happening beneath the surface of New Mexico? Something ancient, something supernatural, something mysterious? And spoiler alert, I don't really know the answer to that question.
However, there is some evidence that seems to point inthe direction of yes. All right. So, let's go back to Juliet Bryant. She talks about a lot of very interesting things. Epstein's connection to like we're talking about here with the UFOs with underground bases but also with genetic experiments, i.e. cloning.
Okay, now if you're thinking cloning like this thing is getting weird. I don't even know if I want to keep watching this video because now we're talking about Epstein doing genetic experiments, but the mainstream media themselves even admit to this fact. The New York Times wrote an article saying that Epstein wanted to turn the Zoro Ranch, the place that we're talking about here in New Mexico, into a quote unquote baby breeding farm.
His term, and it was quoted by the New York Times, they said that he wanted to seed the human race with his DNA. Guys, I'm not making this up. Here is the article from the New York Times. It's behind a payw wall, so I can only take a screenshot of the headline. So, by all accounts, yes, Epstein did want to conduct these genetic experiments and seed the human race with his DNA.
What else does that sound like to you? A lot of people who are abducted by aliens will say that their seed was taken and they're creating these hybrid races of beings that are going to take over the earth. So already the things that are happening at Zoro Ranch according to the mainstream media fall in line with ufology.
They also fall in line with biblical theology considering that the whole point of the flood of Noah was to erase the genetic manipulation that was happening at that time and the fact that Jesus Christ himself said that it would happen again. So, the fact that Epstein was dabbling in this genetic experiment that he was doing or these experiments I should say is concerning to say the least. But here's the thing, guys.
Julia's testimony, it goes further. She believes that her eggs were harvested, that genetic experiments were taking place beneath the property and that there were scientists involved. And she believed what happened to her was connected to something larger, something bigger than just one man's crime. And if this is true, like I said before, we can't verify it.
We don't know if it's true. However, if it is true, that would explain the reason why this whole Epstein files release that just happened was a scam, why they gave us all these redacted files and blank pages. Because they're covering up something. They're covering up something that goes far beyond the surface level things that we hear about, and it's way darker than anybody would like to admit.
So the real ultimate question here is is this woman Juliet Bryant telling the truth. Honestly guys, we don't know. All right, we can either agree with what she's saying. We can either believe what she's saying or we can deny it, right? Because ultimately she was there. It wasn't us. We don't have this firsthand experience to talk about. It was her.
But when you connect what she was saying to the overarching story of New Mexico in general and some of the things that have been reported in New Mexico, not only by people who have seen things, but by the Native American tribes themselves, it seems to paint a larger picture that yeah, maybe all of these things are correlated and do have connections that are hidden from the public. All right.
Again, we don't know for sure, but best we can do is take the evidence that we have available to us, examine it, use logic and critical thinking to see if there is any patterns that can be identified. And the answer is yes. It seems like there are. So, we don't know if Juliet is telling the truth, but we do know that she was compensated by the Epstein victims fund, right? Where that actually lends credibility to her story because she was given $2 million because she was it was proven in a federal court that she was abused. And guys, like all
of my other videos, I'm not telling you what to believe. I'm just here to examine patterns. And the patterns lead to specific things. They lead to somewhere. And I think they lead to somewhere troubling. Let's talk about some of the things that we know to be true for sure. So Epstein, he purchased Zoro Ranch from the family of an ex New Mexico governor.
I think his name was Bruce King. Uh I think he paid like $12 million for it. Cash, by the way. Maybe not cash money cash, but like a wire transfer. He didn't take out a mortgage for this property, guys. He he he just bought it outright. And it was uh like I think it was like 7,500 acres total, like around 10,000 something something between that number.
And it's about 30 mi southeast of Santa Fe. Now, what's in Santa Fe? Side note here, guys. What's close to Santa Fe, just north of Santa Fe, is what? Los Alamos. Yes, the same Los Alamos where they designed the first nuclear bomb. And side note on this side note that there also is rumored to be deep underground facilities under Los Alamos as well.
So Los Alamos itself is pretty close to Santa Fe and prettyclose to that is Epstein's ranch. So what happened was he bought that ranch and then he put his money into it and turned it into a fortress and also by the way an airirst strip with a private hanger. Hm. And the property was and probably still is surrounded by these high-tech surveillance cameras, these high security gates that block view.
And the employees who worked there remain to this day extremely tight- lipped about it. And nobody actually talks about what happened inside that compound. The funny thing is too, when the FBI raided Epstein's Manhattan townhouse and his little St. James Island, I think it was in 2019, they never raided the ranch, right? Um, despite multiple survivors indicating that the ranch was indeed a location of abuse, it was never raided.
So, why didn't they raid the ranch? Okay, at least publicly. And maybe they did privately. Or maybe they already knew what was going on at that ranch, so they didn't have to raid it because they're the ones who are running the operations there. Why would a man with unlimited resources to say the least build his I mean, I think it was his largest property.
I think it was actually bigger than Little St. James, bigger than the whole island if I'm remembering correctly. Why would he build his largest estate, his largest residence in this remote place in the New Mexico desert? And look, I've spent a lot of time in New Mexico. Uh, a lot of time. I' I've filmed a lot of footage out there, and I will show some of it in this video.
Um, there's nothing out there, especially once you get out past Santa Fe. It's just there's nothing out there. It's just empty. So, why did he choose this specific location? That's the ultimate question. So the answer though it might lie in what surrounds it in some of the history some of the you know the facts that are surrounding this whole area of New Mexico in general because there are some very strange things that have been documented throughout the years relating to both the UFO phenomena and as well as other strange things that line up
theologically with what the Bible says exactly. So let's talk about Doulce real quick. All right. So, I think it was about 150 mi north of the Zoro Ranch sits a town called Doulce, New Mexico. And I've been to Doulce a bunch of times. I was going to do some filming out there, but I never filmed out in Doulce. I've been there so many times.
I don't even think there's any stop lightss in that town. There's a Dollar General that I remember, and I think there's a school, but the population there is pretty small. It's like less than 3,000 people. And Doulce is also the headquarters of uh one of the Apache tribes. It's a reservation. So according to decades of let's just say conspiracy research, it's also one of the most secretive underground bases in the entire world.
And I do this air quotes because there might be some truth to it, right? But at the same time, we can't verify it. So the story about this underground facility, this underground base in Doulce, I'm sure you guys, a lot of you are familiar with it, but if you're not, I'm just going to touch on it real quick. So, the story centers around a giant messa in the back of the town called Archelada Mesa.
It's basically like a flat top looking mountain that overlooks the entire town. Um, and it's there's some like antennas and wires up on there and stuff. And the locals the locals, mind you, who are Native Americans, they what do they call it? They call it Alien Mountain. And yes, a lot of them do have stories of not only UFO sightings, um, cattle mutilations, also a lot of other strange events and high stranges in general is focused around that mountain, Archelada Mesa, and the surrounding areas.
And a lot of the natives who live there will say that there is absolutely a base underneath there. And that brings us to Phil Schneider. Phil Schneider was a geologist who was working for the government who was contracted to do some work on this underground facility. His job was to basically drill test holes into the rock and like check the samples of what comes out to see if the rock was strong enough to to hold like expansion of whatever said facilities in there.
And according to Phil Schneider himself, something went terribly wrong. Um, he came across something that by all accounts should never have existed at all. What am I talking about? I'm talking about a he described it as a 7 foot gray alien being. Um, it was a gray alien, but it was it was large. It was a seven-footer.
He said it was the nastiest smell he's ever smelled. And I believe they took this elevator down and when the doors opened up, they were right there. And what happened next was by all accounts it was a battle. >> I was involved in building another base onto in inside of Dulce, New Mexico, which is Los Alamos Laboratory.
It's a biological laboratory. So in the southwest part of the Archelada Mesa uh we built an underground facility a better part of 3cubic miles all about underground. Then to the southwest of that we built we were we were in the process of the early stages of building. We drilled four large uh tunnel-like holes.
Some of them ran 2 and 1/2 miles under the surface 2 mi a day. It was fairly rapid. The equipment kept coming up broken. So we wanted to go down. want to send somebody down there, a human observer or human observers in this case, find out what was going on. Well, to our total surprise, first of all, the government knew all about it.
They didn't tell anybody. Uh, when I saw green beret and black beret people in camp inside of our geologist camp, I knew something was up. The gig was up. First of all, I knew all about the alien agenda. I'll explain that in a few minutes. The large alien grays had been encamped there for as best as believed possible about four or 500 years had been one of their internal bases.
And we we drilled holes right on top of it. All the stinking air, all the black air came right out as soon as one the first hole was sunk and all this soot came up. And well, that's when it all all the hail broke loose. Really all started. Anyway, after we drilled all four holes, it took about a two days to drill all four of them.
And when you build a underground base, you drill four basic holes and you build you called stoopes or crossmember holes across and you bl use blasting equipment, you special blasting equipment by the analyzation of the rock formation. And you literally blast out or tunnel out or deflaggerate or melt rock out to build the large rooms that are required for this underground base.
Well, in this process, I was lowered down the basket of one of these holes and about from me to this elderly woman here in the front was sitting a 7ft tall alien gray. The stench was worse than the worst garbage can you can imagine. Uh the person was or the entity was absolutely horrible. I didn't waste any time. I reached for my pistol.
At that time as an engineer, I didn't have time to carry all the fall through all of one of these big submachine guns that all the sea spray and the yellow fruit and all the uh out of perimeter and inner perimeter security people carried. I carried a little Walter PPK pistol with a nine shot clip. This was in a late August of 1979.
Now, you got a regular suit of clothes. You got a regular clothes on. Plus, you're in a almost like a space suit environment and you're reaching for a gun. It's It's not the easiest thing to do. And then to pop a clip in it and start shooting. And I kill two of them. Yes, they're mortal and they do die. However, in the process, uh, one of them did this.
I all I remember is that he just kind of waved his hand in front of his chest and the next thing I know, this blue beam hit me and just literally opened me up like a fish and burnt burnt my fingers right off of me. And it was some form of electrical force because the kind of like hit being hit by a lightning bolt burnt all my toenails off of me.
Completely crispy critter my left foot. Burnt the shoe right off of me. Um, all I remember is the smoking remains and I'm laying almost I'm still conscious but in and out of I didn't remember much. And there was a a green beret that was right behind me. He risked his life. In fact, he died, but he risked his life.
He shoved me back in the bath and hit the button and took me up. I wouldn't be alive talking to you today wasn't for him. >> So, long story short, Phil Snider was um he was ended, his life was ended in an apartment in his apartment. And when they found him, there was a a catheter that was wrapped around his neck that ended up causing him to not live anymore.
Um the official ruling was, you guessed it, he uh swworded himself. Okay. But here's the thing. His ex-wife said that that's impossible because Phil had he had no fingers on one hand. For two, he had very limited mobility in his shoulders, making it basically physically impossible for him to do that to himself.
And a lot of his friends are convinced that he was taken out as well. And a number of people that he worked with were also taken out as well. So, it wasn't just him. The the whole cluster of people that were working on this operation were all removed at the same time. Now, let me be clear, right? Like I said, none of this stuff can be verified.
There's no actual evidence that the Doulce base exists. There's been no government documents. There's been no whistleblower testimony that can be independently verified, right? Cuz I mean, Phil Schneider is the only one. And his claims can't be proven because, well, for one, he doesn't exist anymore. And for two, all the evidence that he did have mysteriously went missing with his with his removal of life, right? So, all we have left is these videos that survived from the his speeches telling us what he saw down there.
But like I said before, and I don't want to be beating a dead horse with this, but the people who live in Doulce in thesurrounding areas, they tell a different story. They tell the same story that Phil did. They report UFOs flying over the mesa all the time, these strange lights. Um, they also report strange military activity there.
And mind you, closest military base from there is pretty far away. It would be I think it's in Albuquerque, but the people who live there report constant strange military activity as well as strange lights and high stranges similar to the things that happened at Skinwalker Ranch. I mean, there's been verified cases of unexplained cattle mutilations going back to the I think it's the 1970s um in that area. Okay.
And all the residents there. And if by the way, if you're watching this and you live in Doulce, around Doulce, or you know somebody that does, give us a story. You know, am I accurate in my depiction of the local legends surrounding these these mountains, these underground bases? Is there actually something happening there? Because by all accounts, the locals who live there, they have this persistent like sense that there is something happening beneath the mountains that cannot be explained. Or can they? Now, let's take
a look at some factual things that we can actually verify because there are some strange things that kind of coincide with this. the whole story of the underground bases in New Mexico because New Mexico itself contains some of the largest cave systems in the entire earth. Um, and also some of the most restricted cave systems on Earth as well.
And that's this is not conspiracy theory, guys. This is fact. It's scientific fact that you can even look up yourself. So, let's start at Carl'sbad National Park, which is uh it's a little bit south of Roswell. It's about an hour south of Roswell, and it's one of the largest rooms. It's one of the largest cave systems in America, but also in North America and in the world.
And it's big room. They call it the big room. It is literally one of the biggest underground chambers in the entire world. And I have some footage of there cuz I went there and I filmed the whole thing. Um I'll put the footage on the screen right now. What you are seeing comes from inside the big room at Carl'sbad National Park.
So while Carl's bad itself is huge, if you've been there, you know it's a massive place. You can walk down through there for miles. It's a really huge place. You'll notice something though if you go there. You'll notice that there are a lot of paths, a lot of offshoots that are sealed off. And not only that, most of the cave is sealed off.
They only let you in like the major parts in the big room. But most of the passages that go deeper are sealed off and you're not allowed to go in there. You can pay money um to be escorted with a park ranger through some of these systems. And they have these wild caving tours where u you know you pay money and you get a tour guide that will take you into some of the parts that are more inaccessible.
But they don't let you explore the whole thing for one and for two they don't even know how far it goes because the whole thing hasn't been explored. And attached to Carl'sbad itself is a even more significant cave that has never been opened to the public. In fact, it's one of the most significant and awe inspiring caves ever discovered in the history of humanity.
This cave is called Lechugia. Now this place is amazing and it was discovered I think it was in 1985 1986 when cavers that were exploring some of the Carl'sbads passages. They broke through like a false wall basically and they found passages that extended farther than they thought existed and they furthermore they were walking passages and walking passages that by all accounts go over 150 miles 150 mi underground and this cave hasn't been explored fully either.
So that's only what they kind of know that exists. They estimate that there's way more that is undiscovered that will probably never be discovered because it's too deep. It's too dark and it goes way too far for people to actually try and figure out how far this thing actually goes.
So Lechugia goes I think it's like 2,000 ft under the surface and it is by all accounts the deepest limestone cave in the United States of America. And access to Lechea completely restricted. You can't go there. I can't go there. It's only approved researchers, scientists, and like sperunkers who get the whatever passes they need, survey teams, and government officials who are allowed to go inside.
Let's see if I can find some pictures of Lechugia because this place is insane. And remember, it's connected to Carl'sbad. So, the passages that are in Carl'sbad connect to Lechea that go for 150 mi. And there's also other cave systems that seem to connect to the other ones. Although there has never been connections made publicly that connect Lechea to let's say the one that's underneath Ruid Doso, which is also an extremely large cave system that is sealed off to the public, which isonly about an hour, I think it's like um
west northwest of Roswell. And if you follow the logic here, it seems to indicate that the these cave systems connect to each other and they extend farther than anybody can imagine and deeper as well. Let's get back to Lechugia real quick before I move too far. All right, so the formations at Lechugia are so fragile that scientists say even like the breath of a human can damage them.
Okay, there's these huge crystals that are the size of buildings. But here's what's interesting. Because scientists have discovered inside Leche that there are bacteria that can survive without sunlight. They feed off of minerals in the cave like sulfuric compounds and some of these organisms have never been found anywhere else on the earth.
And furthermore, some of them are even resistant to modern antibiotics. So what I'm saying here is that this bacteria, it does demonstrate that it is possible for organisms to live underground in these dark places that have never seen the sunlight. Furthermore, the Bible says the exact same thing. But the Bible doesn't talk about bacteria living underground.
It talks about beings, about creatures, and creatures that live underground that are under the authority of Christ. But we'll get into that in just a minute because yes, the Bible does say that there are beings living underground. Paul uses the word subterranean. All right, so again, let's back up.
The researchers at Lechigia admit that they've never mapped the full cave and that there is wind that comes from inside the cave, indicating there is an opening somewhere else. They've just never found it. Now, consider the geography of New Mexico. Carl'sbad sits on the southern part of New Mexico, kind of near Texas.
Um, it's like the southeastern part. I believe it's like 200 miles from Zoro Ranch. And that's separated by a couple mountain ranges. And under those mountain ranges and under New Mexico in general, is limestone. limestone formations. The same limestone that formed basically Carl's badbugia and all the other cave systems.
Pretty much most of the state of New Mexico is limestone underneath the surface. So, let me paint you a picture. All right, let's see if I can find a map that shows this. So, you have Roswell right here. Right underneath Roswell is Carl'sbad. Carl'sbad caverns. And then over here you have a mountain. There's a big mountain.
I I've I've been there several times. I know this area pretty well. When you're driving from Roswell to White Sands, you go up and over this big mountain. At the top of that mountain is a town called Ruidoso. Ruidoso, by the way, is an amazing place. I love that place. It's one of my favorite places. It's awesome. But underneath Ruidoso, remember Ruidoso sits on top of a mountain.
Underneath Ruidoso is a mountain. Underneath that mountain is what? You guessed it, a cave system. This cave system under Ruidoso is another one that's sealed off to the public. It's restricted and people can never even go in it. And it's hard to find any information about this cave system under Ruid Doso because the networks are so vast and they're so large they've never been fully explored.
Sound familiar? Well, it should because none of these cave systems have ever been fully explored. And if they have, they're not telling us about it. So, geographically, we have Carl'sbad, Roswell, a mountain with Ruidoso on it, and then another cave. Logically, it seems like the cave system from Carlsbad runs all the way through the mountain ranges underneath Ruidoso connects to that cave system out the other side to where? White sands.
What's it white sands? Well, that's where they detonated the first nuclear weapons. So, here we have this connection to nuclear weapons, UFOs. Remember what happened at Roswell? And also, there's been other crashes in that area. There's a famous one in Aztec, New Mexico, which by the way is a little bit north of White Sands with these cave systems that parallel basically the the geography of the earth just underneath it.
So scientifically, it's it's a fact that New Mexico does sit on top of these honeycombs of caves of cave tunnels of these chambers. They extend far deeper than anybody realizes because they've never explored them. And this isn't conspiracy theory, guys. These cave systems are real. They're deep. They never been explored.
and they do honeycomb the whole state. And you probably see where I'm going with this. And we don't have proof that these cave systems are all connected into one large system that may or may not connect to the underground facilities that let's just say Phil Snider talked about in Doulce and the other underground facilities that are talked about at Epstein's ranch and the other underground facilities that are talked about underneath Los Alamos itself.
Now, with all this in mind, let's talk about some of the ancient past and some of the strange occurrences that were documented by the natives who've lived in this areain New Mexico in the four corners area for thousands of years. And long before European contact, before the Spanish ever arrived, before any of that, the Anosazi inhabited the region.
They've inhabited this region for centuries. There's cliff dwellings found all over the place. Choco Canyon is a great example. Here's some footage. When I went to Choco Canyon, I filmed this. This place is insane. It's filled with these depictions of monsters, depictions of beings, depictions of uh you can call them strange creatures.
They're all over the place in Choco Canyon, and they're all over the place and all of New Mexico basically. and not just New Mexico into Arizona, uh, Utah, Colorado, all of the places, all the natives in the four corners area have been documenting strange occurrences via petroglyphs for thousands of years with many of which are still available today to look at.
Here are some examples right now. Now, there are tens of thousands of petroglyphs all over the place. And most of them, yeah, they depict like normal everyday activities like hunting scenes, clans, animals, but that's not all, okay? because there are some unexplained phenomena and some very strange creatures and beings that are also depicted among the pictures of deer and whatever else, right? So, look at this video that I filmed in Choco Canyon.
You can see these humanoid creatures, you know, with large eyes and unusual proportions. Some of them even seem to be wearing like halos or helmets or strange things on their head. There's so many of these strange creatures that are etched into stone forever that I guess you could say it's inconvenient for mainstream and for academia as a whole because they say that this is most likely um pictures of things that people saw during these hallucinogenic ceremonies during some sort of ritual state um some sort of altered states of
consciousness that these shamans would go into and they'd come out they'd see something and they draw it there. But when you take into account the the stories that the natives themselves tell, well then it paints a whole different picture. It paints a picture that's not just something that people saw in these altered states of consciousness.
It paints a picture of a history that people witnessed with their own eyes and documented it via these petetroglyphs for the entire world to see forever. Because the Hopi people, the Hopi people talk about um what they call the ant people. So according to the Hopi, the ant people lived underground. It's a race of people or a race of beings that lived underground and they would come out uh periodically to help people and they would also help people during uh these cataclysmic events and help them survive either by taking them underground or by giving them resources
whatever it was. A lot of native tribes describe beings who live underground who have live always lived underground and sometimes appear on the surface and will guide some of the tribes men through these underground tunnels through these passages deep beneath the earth. A lot of them describe beings that emerged from these subterranean worlds basically underground worlds through these openings in the ground.
So my question to you is this. What did these ancient people see? What lived alongside them? Or I should say what lived beneath them? And if something lived beneath the people of New Mexico, if something lived beneath the all the tribes of the Southwest thousands of years ago, if there was a race of beings that lived underground, if they lived there then, what makes you think they don't live there now and still continue to live there to this day? And if there's something that lives underground in New Mexico, is there a connection between
the ancient underground races and the modern stories and tales and eyewitness testimonies of people being brought underground like what we're talking about with Jeffrey Epstein? Because to me it sounds like they're talking about the same thing just separated by thousands of years. And by the way guys, and this is a very important fact I want to bring up here.
Scripture, the Bible repeatedly talks about things that live beneath the surface of our world. Philippians 2:10, for example, declares that at the name of Jesus, every knee will bow. Those that, listen to this, guys, those that are in heaven, on the earth, and under the earth. Think about that, under the earth. And then Revelation 5:13, John records that every creature, every creature in heaven, on the earth, and under the earth, and in the sea will um they're going to start declaring glory to God.
But let's back up to what Paul said in Philippians 2:10 because the Greek word he used there, I can't pronounce it. I'll put it up on the screen, but it literally means subterranean. Paul is telling us, he's saying straight up, "Hey guys, there's something, there's these beings that live in the depths of the world. They live underground. They live underneathour feet in these subterranean worlds.
There are beings that live there. But not only do they live there, they also, well, let's just say they will bow to Christ. Christ is above them. Christ is above everything. Every knee will bow, including the things that live inside of the earth. That's what Paul says explicitly. As well as the entities of the abyss.
In Revelation 9, it talks about these beings, these disgusting creatures that will be released in the last day from where? From inside the earth. So there is something living in the earth. Paul talks about it. John talks about it. Peter talks about it. It's all over the Bible. Scripture tells us that these are not creatures of this world, of the surface of this world.
These are creatures. These are beings that are confined to the depths of the earth. These entities are inhabiting the earth and they have been since probably before the flood of Noah. So now that we establish that the Bible does explicitly say yes, there are beings that live in the earth. They live in these subterranean realms. They're creatures.
their entities. They live there. And remember that coincides with what the native tribes are saying that there are beings that live in the earth. And a lot of other tribes too. A lot of other native people, a lot of other cultures talk about beings, about creatures, about entities who live in the earth. But remember, the Bible's the only one that said that these creatures are they're under the authority of Christ.
They will bow to him. Okay? Every knee will bow, including the things that live in the earth. So the question I have to you is this. Are these beings that the Bible talks about connected to what ancient people of ancient New Mexico carved in the stone? I think so. Are they connected to what people like Juliet Bryant glimpsed in these underground facilities that Epstein was working with? Possibly.
And are they connected to what Phil Schneider talked about when he claimed that there was these these beings, these 7 foot gray aliens that live underneath the ground of Doulsece, New Mexico in these deep underground military bases? Possibly. Because guys, we have to test these claims against scripture. If scripture didn't back up any of the stuff that I'm saying, I probably wouldn't even talk about it because you can't just make stuff up.
But the fact here that we have all these stories that are coalesing into this big story that's backed up biblically, I think it lends credibility to the fact that there might be something happening there under the ground at Jeffrey Epstein's ranch, at Doulce, in these underground tunnels, in these cave systems, the same thing that the Native Americans witnessed.
And look guys, again, I'm not claiming to have the answers. I'm just asking questions. I'm asking questions that the mainstream media won't touch. Because one thing that we know is clear is that the most powerful people in the world, they operate in the shadows. They operate in a way that keeps their true nature, their true intentions obfuscated from us.
They don't want us to see what they're actually doing. It's a slight of hand. They say, "Hey guys, look over here. Focus on politics, left right paradigm. Focus on whatever politician you like. Watch this movie. Focus on celebrities. Focus on this, that, whatever's in the news today. But don't look at this hand because we don't want you to see what we're actually doing.
We want your attention over here. That way we can do what we want on this side and nobody can tell the difference. So guys, what do you think about this? Do you think there is an overarching pattern that seems to indicate that there is actually something going on underground or am I just reaching and you know there's nothing going on? Just stop looking into it.
Stop asking questions and stop critically thinking about these things because it's dumb, right? What do you think? Put it in the comments below. Tell me how wrong I am or tell me if you think I'm right. I'm curious to read your opinions. And uh yeah, we will see you guys next time. God bless you all.
The Elite Don’t Talk Like Us — Here’s What They Say Instead
The Elite Don’t Talk Like Us — Here’s What They Say Instead - YouTube
Transcripts:
The first and most revealing sign that someone doesn't truly belong in high society is never the handbag, the car, or the couture. Those things can be bought. What cannot be purchased, [music] what instantly separates the insiders from the outsiders is how they speak, how they glide into a room.
They handle the lightest, simplest conversation with elegance, calmness, and social intelligence. In elite circles, small talk is not small at all. It's the quiet performance that determines whether you blend in or stand out for all the wrong reasons. If you're building your own path to wealth, refinement, and generational legacy, make sure you subscribe to the channel because the people who understand these unwritten rules move through the world differently.
And after today, you will too. Let's step inside the drawing rooms, vineyards, [music] charity lunchons, and private clubs where the wealthy evaluate one another without ever appearing to. Conversations here unfold like silk. Smooth, light, [music] intentional, and every sentence, every pause, every smile reveals more than most people realize.
These are the unwritten rules of small talk in high society. And breaking even one can expose you instantly. Rule one, small talk must create comfort, not impress. In ordinary environments, people try to impress through conversation, listing achievements, sharing credentials, proving their intelligence. But in elite circles, trying too hard is the quickest way to be dismissed.
High society views comfort as the most valuable social currency, and the people who create it are the ones who belong. A story is often told about a newly wealthy couple attending their first summer charity gala in the Hamptons. The husband, eager to connect, began enthusiastically talking about recent deals [music] he closed and the markets he was dominating.
But high society does not reward intensity. It rewards ease. Within minutes, the conversation froze. The powerful older man he spoke to simply smiled, nodded, [music] and drifted away. The rest of the evening, the couple found themselves politely ignored, not shunned, just gently moved to the edges of the room. Because the first rule is this, conversation in elite settings should make others feel relaxed, never overwhelmed.
Rule two, speak slowly and respect the space between words. In the everyday world, people rush to fill silence. They answer instantly, fearing the slightest pause. But in high society, silence is not awkward. It's elegant. [music] It signals composure, confidence, and emotional stability. Those who belong take a breath before responding.
Just the slightest pause. It sends a message. I am comfortable here. I am not rushed. I do not need to perform. [music] A newcomer often gives themselves away by instantly jumping into sentences, talking too fast, or filling every quiet moment with nervous chatter. The elite noticed this immediately. In high society, pace is [music] presence.
Rule three, never ask, "What do you do?" This is one of the most important rules, and outsiders break it constantly. In elite spaces, asking someone what they do is considered unimaginative, borderline intrusive, [music] and deeply middle class in energy. High society cares more about who you are than what you produce.
They value character, demeanor, interests, upbringing, mutual acquaintances, not job titles or income streams. The question, "What do you do?" flattens a person into an economic role. Instead, conversation begins with observations about the setting, the art, the host, shared connections, or light atmospheric topics.
A newcomer once asked an ays at a London dinner what she did for a living. The table went silent, not because it was offensive, but because it revealed he didn't understand the culture. She gave a polite smile and redirected the conversation. [music] But the impression had been made. He was charming, but clearly inexperienced.
In high society, curiosity must be soft, [music] never investigative. Rule four, understatement is your social armor. The elite rarely describe things in great detail, and they never flaunt what they have. A long yacht vacation becomes, "We spent some time by the coast." A month in St. Barts becomes, "We escaped the cold for a bit.
" They intentionally smooth out the edges of luxury. Overcription signals a need for admiration. [music] Understatement signals confidence. If someone begins listing the exact resorts they stayed at, the expensive activities they did, or all the exclusive places they visited, the room quietly closes its doors. Not rudely, I'm just instinctively.
[music] Old money lives by one principle. If it's real, you don't have to say it loudly. Rule five, emotions must be smooth, never dramatic. This rule separates the refined from the restless instantly. High society does not raise voices. It does not tell chaotic stories. It does not showcase emotional extremes.
Even humor is subtle, dry, and softly delivered. A story that might betold with lively hand gestures and volume elsewhere would be narrated with calm understatement in elite settings. A man spilling champagne at a dinner. The table pretends it never happened. A woman arriving flustered from traffic. She'll smooth her dress, exhale gently, [music] and rejoin the room's rhythm.
Drama is not considered entertaining. It is considered disruptive. [music] Grace is the goal. Rule six, listening is your most powerful social signal. [music] In high society, the most respected people are often the quietest speakers. They don't dominate a conversation. They hold it. They listen fully without rushing.
They let others feel clever, interesting, and valued. The ability to listen is interpreted as emotional stability and inner confidence. Those who interrupt, talk over others, or turn conversations back to [music] themselves are revealed immediately. A powerful person never needs the spotlight because the room naturally gives it to them.
Rule seven, gossip is social self-sabotage. In elite social circles, gossip is not entertainment, it is danger. The wealthiest families move in tight, overlapping networks that stretch across generations, schools, charities, marriages, and long-standing friendships. Everyone knows everyone, and everyone remembers everything. A newcomer at a dinner in Milan once repeated a rumor he'd overheard about a couple's marital troubles, thinking he was simply being conversational.
The table fell quiet. The hostess smiled politely, but something in the air changed. By the next season, he was no longer on any guest list. Not because anyone confronted him, but because high society protects itself. The unspoken agreement is simple. If you cannot protect someone's privacy, you cannot be trusted with access.
Gossip is a sign of insecurity, of someone who needs stories to fill space. The elite prefer people who understand discretion, the kind of person who treats every conversation as confidential, even when it's harmless. In high society, your silence says far more about your character than your stories ever could. Rule [music] eight, pivot away from sensitive topics with grace.
Knowing how to shift a conversation is an essential skill in elite [music] settings. When a topic becomes too personal, too political, too emotional, or too revealing, the wealthy do not correct the speaker or announce the discomfort. That would create embarrassment, the greatest social sin. [music] Instead, they glide the conversation in a new direction as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
If someone begins drifting toward a polarizing subject, they might redirect gently. I've always thought people's experiences shape that differently. Speaking of which, have you seen the new exhibit at? It's soft, subtle, effortlessly elegant. The pivot is a social dance step, [music] smooth, seamless, and crucial to maintaining harmony.
Because the goal of small talk in high society is never to win a debate. It's to preserve the atmosphere. People who cannot pivot, who cling to heavy topics or push their opinions, are seen as socially clumsy, no matter how intelligent they are. Rule nine, politeness must [music] feel effortless. Politeness in high society does not resemble performative niceness.
It is steady, quiet, natural, an unconscious part of one's presence. The wealthy greet staff with the same warmth they show to guests. They never bark orders, snap fingers, or act impatient. Even their corrections are softened. Their gratitude is sincere but understated. They understand that good manners are not about showing refinement.
They are about protecting the dignity of others. Politeness when done properly feels like ease. Politeness when forced feels like insecurity. And the room always senses the difference. Rule [music] 10. Humor should be light, subtle, and never excessive. Humor is welcome in elite conversation when, but only the right kind.
The wealthy prefer wit over punchlines, irony over sarcasm, and light amusement over loud laughter. Their humor lands softly, not dramatically. Someone making the entire room roar with laughter may be entertaining, but they rarely gain respect. Someone making the room smile with understated cleverness [music] gains admiration effortlessly.
Oversized jokes, dramatic storytelling, and loud reactions feel out of place. Subtle humor delivered calmly signals that you do not need attention. Attention simply arrives. >> [music] >> Rule 11. Emotional stability is more impressive than intelligence. This rule isn't spoken aloud, but everyone knows it.
High society values calmness over charisma, balance over brilliance, composure over cleverness. A person can be highly educated, charismatic, and articulate. But if they show emotional volatility, irritation, defensiveness, impatience, insecurity, nothing else matters. The wealthy trust those who remain steady, those who do not react impulsively, those who carry their emotional world quietly andelegantly.
In elite circles, emotional instability is the equivalent of broken etiquette. It makes people uncomfortable. And in these environments, making others uncomfortable is the true social failure. Rule 12. Protect others from embarrassment at all costs. In high society, causing someone embarrassment, even [music] unintentionally to die, is one of the gravest social offenses.
Emotional comfort is treated like fine crystal, [music] fragile, precious, and to be handled delicately. If someone mispronounces the name of an exclusive wine, no one corrects them bruskly. The refined response is to weave the correct pronunciation subtly into your next sentence, [music] allowing the other person to adjust without shame.
If someone spills a drink, the room pretends not to notice. If someone loses their train of thought, the listener offers a gentle bridge. If someone makes a small social mistake, no one points it out. In elite circles, embarrassing someone is viewed as vulgar. Grace is measured in how gently you protect the dignity of others.
Not performatively, but naturally, instinctively, as though kindness is woven into your social posture. [music] This rule is one of the clearest differences between those raised in refinement and those still learning its language. Rule 13. Never display desperation, social, financial, or emotional.
The wealthy have an extraordinary sensitivity to desperation of any kind. It can be financial. What do you do? We should work together. Social, introduce me to your friends. Or emotional. [music] I'd love to be included next time. Any hint of neediness creates an invisible barrier. Those who belong project steadiness. [music] They do not chase.
They do not cling. They do not angle for invitations. [music] Because in high society, the more you show that you want entry, the more the door closes. Belonging is signaled through ease, not ambition. People who carry themselves as if they already belong get invited. [music] People who try to earn it don't.
Rule 14. Don't overshare. Mystery [music] is magnetic. High society does not open up quickly. Its conversations are light and controlled, revealing small layers at a time. Outsiders often sabotage themselves by oversharing personal details, emotions, struggles, or past difficulties in an attempt to bond. But the elite prefer subtlety.
They reveal just enough to be personable, but not enough to expose their private world. Mystery is seen as elegance. Restraint is seen as power. And someone who reveals too much too soon creates discomfort because it disrupts the emotional balance of the interaction. Old money especially embraces this rule. Their personal lives, family matters, and private histories remain behind an invisible curtain.
Revealing the inner world is not intimacy. It is risk. Rule 15. always leave conversations with warmth and precision. Exiting a conversation is a skill, and the elite treat it as a delicate art. They do not abruptly announce they must mingle. They do not offer vague excuses. They do not leave someone hanging mid-sentence.
Instead, they close gracefully with a brief sentence that affirms the interaction. It was such a pleasure speaking with you. I hope our paths cross again soon. or if the connection is weaker. I'm so glad we had a chance to chat. I'll let you continue your conversation. Thank you for the lovely exchange. Short, warm, polished.
Then they drift [music] away, neither rushed nor lingering. The exit is as important as the entrance. Rule 16. Your tone, rhythm, and calmness matter more than your words. The way you speak in high society matters far more than what you say. Your tone should be low, calm, and steady. Your rhythm should be unhurried.
Your body language should be open but contained. People remember how you made them feel long after they forget your words. Inside elite circles, presence is more powerful than eloquence. A person who speaks with elegance, even if they say very little, leaves a stronger impression than [music] someone who speaks brilliantly but with the wrong energy.
This is the rule old money teaches its children from the day they can form sentences. Control your tone. Never rush your words. Never let your emotions outweigh your composure. The elite prize serenity more than sophistication. Rule 17. True belonging happens the moment you stop trying to prove anything.
This is the final unwritten rule. the one that reveals itself only after you've spent time in these rooms. The people who truly belong are not the ones with the most money, the most connections, or the most polished exterior. They are the ones who move without effort, who speak calmly, listen generously, and carry themselves with quiet assurance.
They don't try to be impressive and ironically that makes them unforgettable.

The 7 Levels of Hollywood Power
The 7 Levels of Hollywood Power - YouTube
Transcripts:
The seven levels of Hollywood power explained. Level one, the pawn. Ana Taylor Joy. Ana Taylor Joy appears on billboards and in some of the biggest films of recent years, but none of that means she controls her trajectory. Robert Edgars plucked her from over a thousand video submissions for The Witch in 2015, and that pattern has defined everything since. M.
Knight Shyamalan cast her in Split and Glass. George Miller handed her Furiosa. And Netflix turned her into a household name with The Queen's Gambit, which 62 million households watched in its first month. Golden Globe winner, SAG award winner, and for all of that, she took home between 500,000 and $696,000. The most watched limited series in Netflix history at the time paid her less than a million.
When she voiced Princess Peach in the Super Mario Brothers, the film grossed $1.36 billion worldwide, and her paycheck came to $1 million. No production company exists under her name. No firstlook deals sit on her desk, and no seat at the table where decisions get made belongs to her. Dior, Tiffany, and Jerger Lultra pay her to wear their products, pushing her net worth to between 7 and $12 million.
In terms of actual Hollywood power, she waits for the phone to ring just like she did 10 years ago. [music] And the only difference now is that more people know her name when it does. >> Feel my creative when I'm being creative or when I'm barefoot. Actually, >> Jacob Eordy. Jacob Allerty took a different route to the same destination.
He showed up in Los Angeles from Australia with somewhere between $400 and $800 in his pocket, eventually sleeping in his car before booking Euphoria. Netflix's kissing booth franchise gave him visibility with teenagers, but earned him zero industry respect, and that's when he did something smart.
Directors with serious reputations started getting his attention. Sophia Copala cast him as Elvis Presley and Priscilla. Emerald Fennel made him the magnetic center of Saltburn, and Copala reportedly picked him partly because of his effect on women. Whatever that means, it worked. Saltburn became a cultural moment that had everyone talking about Barry Kyogan's bathtub scene and a Lord's magnetic screen presence.
He earned a BAFTA nomination and now GMO del Toro has him lined up for Frankenstein. None of that changes where he actually stands in the hierarchy. No production company, no back-end deals that let him share in profits [music] and every job still depends on a director deciding he's the guy.
When someone offered him Superman, he turned it down, calling it too much and too dark. His net worth sits around $4 to5 million. And the moment directors stop choosing him, the phone stops ringing. That's the reality of level one. >> When I think of a crush, I think like legless. So like pure and fine. I don't know.
Where am I going with this? >> Sydney Sweeney. Sydney Sweeney stands as the most interesting case at level one because she's actively trying to climb out of it. At 12 years old, she put together a 5-year business plan in PowerPoint to convince her parents she was serious about acting. And that tells you everything about how she approaches her career.
[music] Her Euphoria salary started between $25,000 and $44,000 per episode in season 1, then climbed to $350,000 total for all eight episodes of season 2. Anyone But you changed things when the romantic comedy grossed $220 million worldwide on a $25 million budget, proving she could open a movie. Here's where she really stands in the hierarchy.
Reportedly, she agreed to take a supporting role in Madame Webb, a movie that flopped just to get anyone but you green lit in the first place. Trading a bad project for a good one is negotiation from weakness. She founded 50/50 films and landed major brand deals with [music] Ford, Lanz, and Miumu. And IMDb, named her the most popular star of 2024.
Her net worth has climbed to around $40 million. But until she can finance projects without making those trades, she's playing by someone else's rules. >> Don't understand, NATE, IS I AM CRAZIER. >> THAT'S NOT SOMETHING TO BE [ __ ] PROUD OF, CASSIE. >> NO, but it is something you should be scared of. Level two, the negotiator, Scarlett Johansson.
Scarlett Johansson became the face of Level Two when she sued Disney. On July 29th, 2021, Johansson filed a lawsuit claiming Disney breached her contract for Black Widow. Her deal guaranteed a wide theatrical release, meaning at least 1500 screens with an implied 90 to 120day window before the film went anywhere else.
Disney released Black Widow simultaneously in theaters and on Disney Plus during the pandemic. And Johansson's compensation was heavily tied to box office performance. She claimed the dual release cost her around $50 million in bonuses. Disney's response accused her of showing callous disregard for CO 19's effects while revealing she'd already been paid $20 million.
The industry rallied behind her anyway. CA's Brian Lord called Disney'sresponse shameful [music] and 2 months later Disney settled for a reported payout exceeding $40 million. Her MCU salary progression tells the real story. $400,000 for Iron Man 2, around a million by the Avengers, and $20 million by Age of Ultron. Total MCU earnings between 60 and $15 million.
She's the highest grossing lead actress ever with over $14 billion in worldwide box office. As she told Marie Cla, "Just because I'm the top grossing actress of all time does not mean I'm the highest paid. I've had to fight for everything." Mark Wahlberg. Mark Wahlberg showed a different kind of negotiation, the kind that happens behind closed doors and doesn't always look good in the daylight.
December 2017 brought Ridley Scott's decision to reshoot All the Money in the World, replacing Kevin Spacy with Christopher Plameumber. After the accusations went public, the entire cast returned for about 10 days of additional filming. Michelle Williams, one of [music] the leads, received roughly $80 a day, totaling less than $1,000.
Mark Wahberg, [music] represented by the same agency, walked away with $1.5 million. The mechanism was a clause giving Wahberg co-star approval rights. and reportedly he refused to approve plumbers's casting until he was guaranteed the additional fee. The math was staggering, 1,500 times more than Williams for identical work.
When the story went public, backlash came immediately from Jessica Chastain, Jud Appattow, [music] and others. Within days, Wahlberg announced he was donating the $1.5 million to the Times Up Legal Defense Fund in Williams name. The episode revealed something important about Level Two. These actors know exactly what their contracts allow and use every bit of leverage available, whether or not it looks fair.
[music] Wahberg's net worth today sits between 300 and $400 million. Built on acting, plus a business empire, including Wahberggers, F-45 training, and car dealerships. Robert Downey Jr. Robert Downey Jr. changed how the entire industry thinks about star compensation. When Marvel cast him as Iron Man in 2008, his well-documented personal troubles meant the studio could lowball him to $500,000, but his contract included back-end points.
Iron Man grossed $585 million, and suddenly that backend was worth a fortune. by the Avengers. Downey negotiated a $10 million base plus backend, pushing total earnings between $50 and $80 million on a film that grossed $1.5 billion. Iron Man 3 brought another $50 to $75 million. For Avengers Endgame, he secured $20 million plus 8% backend, translating to roughly $75 million.
[music] Total MCU earnings between $435 and $500 million. The most important negotiation happened in 2013 before Age of Ultron. Downey went on the Daily Show and hinted at retirement, saying they'd need to renegotiate. An anonymous source told Deadline he had real power and balls of steel. What made Downey different is that he refused to sign until Marvel agreed to raise his co-stars salaries, too.
[music] He used leverage to lift everyone else. His Oscar win for Oppenheimer in 2024 and his reported 80 to$100 million deal to return as Dr. Doom confirmed his leverage isn't going anywhere. We give you the one person who could play Victor Von Doom. >> [screaming] >> Level three, the star, Leonardo DiCaprio.
Leonardo DiCaprio has spent three decades proving prestige and profit aren't mutually exclusive. His career box office exceeds $7.2 billion worldwide, and the films he chooses consistently outperform expectations. Titanic made $2.194 billion and remains the third highest grossing film ever. Inception brought in $830 million. And The Revenant, a brutal, nearly dialogue-free survival film, grossed $533 million.
The Wolf of Wall Street became Scorsese's highest grossing movie at $46 million. DiCaprio understood back-end deals early. His Titanic contract gave him $2.5 million upfront, plus 1.8% of gross, which turned into $40 million when the film became a phenomenon. Inception earned him nearly $60 million through gross points [music] and today his quote sits north of $30 million.
What makes DiCaprio a true level three star is his ability to elevate material by showing up. His Scorsesei partnership has produced six features generating $1.3 billion combined when he was attached to Gangs of New York. Miramax finally secured financing for a project stuck in development. Aian way his production company founded in 2001 has produced Oscar-winning films with first look deals at both Apple and Sony.
His net worth sits at $300 million. And studios don't just want Leonardo DiCaprio, they need him to make certain kinds of movies possible. Dwayne Johnson. Dwayne the Rock Johnson represents the opposite end of the level three spectrum, pure commercial dominance. His career box office exceeds $12.
5 billion worldwide with over $10 billion from films where he's lead or co-lead, making him the highest grossing star at the domestic box office. [music] The industry callswhat he does to struggling franchises franchise Viagra. When he joined Fast and Furious for Fast 5, the franchise jumped from $363 million to $626 million.
Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle gross $962 million and the sequel added another $800 million. [music] Forbes has named him highest paid actor five times. His 2024 earnings totaled $13 million and Red One paid him $50 million, the largest fee plus buyout in streaming history. Seven Bucks Productions, founded in 2012, takes its name from when he was cut from the Canadian Football League and had $7 in his pocket.
His real wealth comes from outside Hollywood. Teramana Tequila is valued between $2 and $3 billion after selling 1.4 million cases in its first 16 months, the fastest liquor launch in industry history. His Under Armour deal pays $25 million annually, and his 391 million Instagram followers make him the most followed American male.
net worth $800 million with analysts believing Taramana could push him past billionaire status. Zenaia. Zenaia is the clearest example of a star whose power is actively being built. At 28, she's anchored some of the decade's biggest films with her Spider-Man trilogy grossing over $4 billion combined, and No Way Home Alone, bringing in 1.
916 billion, the [music] sixth highest grossing film ever. Dune Part Two added another $714 million. The film that proved she could carry a project solo was Challengers in 2024, a tennis drama with no superheroes that grossed $96 million worldwide. According to Post Track data, 55% of audiences said they bought tickets specifically because of Zenaia, making it the highest grossing tennis film in American history.
Her salary progression tells the story. $300,000 for Spider-Man. Homecoming around $10 million total for No Way Home and $10 million for Challengers, her highest payday yet. Her Euphoria season 3 salary is reportedly $1 million per episode. Back-to-back Emmys at ages 24 and 26 made her the youngest ever outstanding lead actress winner.
Brand partnerships with Valentino, Louis Vuitton, Bulgari, and Lancome [music] extend her presence beyond film. Christopher Nolan has cast her in the Odyssey alongside Tom Holland. Her net worth sits between 22 and $30 million. Modest compared to DiCaprio, but her trajectory is undeniable. Level four, the producer, [music] Brad Pitt.
Brad Pitt built the gold standard for actor-driven production. Plan B Entertainment, founded November 2nd, 2001, has become the independent production company with the most Oscar nominations and wins in Hollywood. Three best picture wins tell the story, The Departed, [music] 12 Years a Slave, and Moonlight.
10 best picture nominations overall, including The Tree of Life, The Big [music] Short, Selma, and Manari. After his divorce from Jennifer Aniston in 2005, Pit became sole owner and reshaped the company around prestige projects that wouldn't exist without his involvement. Damon Lindelof put it simply, [music] "They are using their clout and Brad's notoriety to make movies that wouldn't be made otherwise.
" December 2022 brought French conglomerate Mediaan, acquiring 60% of Plan B at approximately $300 million valuation with Pit retaining significant ownership and operational control. The company holds first look deals with Warner Brothers, Amazon MGM Studios, and MGM. Recent productions include Bob Marley, One Love, and Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice.
Beyond Hollywood, Pit owns Chatau Mirraval, purchased for $60 million and now valued between 164 and $500 million. His net worth sits between 400 and $450 million. But more than money, what Pitbilt is the ability to champion story studios might overlook and push them to the Oscar stage. I want to thank my co-stars, uh, Leo, Margot Robbie, Margot Robbiey's feet, Margaret Collie's feet, Dakota Fanic's feet.
Seriously, Quinton has separated more women from their shoes than the TSA. Margot Robbie. Marggo Robbie took a different path to the same destination. Lucky Chap Entertainment started in 2014 in a shared London flat founded with her now husband Tom Akerly along with Josie McNamera and Sophia Kerr.
The mission was specific, [music] promoting female stories from female storytellers. Barbie turned Lucky Chap into a powerhouse. [music] When Robbie pitched Mattel's CEO, she compared Barbie and Greta Gerwig to Dinosaurs and Spielberg, then predicted the film would gross $1 billion. She was wrong. It made 1.
44 billion worldwide, becoming the highest grossing Warner Brothers film ever and highest grossing [music] film by a solo female director. Robbie's compensation reflected her position as both star and producer, $12.5 million salary equal to Ryan Gosling's, plus back-end bonuses totaling approximately $50 million. Forbes named her the highest paid actress of 2023 with $59 million.
Barbie wasn't Lucky Chap's first success. I Tanya [music] grossed $53.9 million on $1 million and won Allison Janney a best supporting actress Oscar. Promising Young Woman won bestoriginal screenplay. Saltburn followed in 2023. After Barbie, Warner Brothers formalized a first look deal in 2024, and the company has expanded internationally through a joint venture with Mediaan.
Robbiey's net worth is $60 million. But the real value is what she's built. She no longer has to trade bad projects for good ones. Ryan [music] Reynolds. Ryan Reynolds turned maximum effort into something Hollywood had never quite seen. A hybrid production company and advertising agency, generating content, selling products, and accumulating equity stakes all at once. The story starts with Deadpool.
Reynolds had been attached since 2004 and after a disastrous 2009 appearance in X-Men Origins. Wolverine director Tim Miller created test footage to prove the concept. [music] The footage sat on a shelf for 2 years while Fox hesitated. July 2014, it leaked online and within 24 hours, Fox green lit the film.
Reynolds didn't admit he was behind the leak until September 2025, confessing, "Yes, I cheated a little, but I think I was on to something." The Deadpool franchise has grossed $2.9 billion with the first making $782 million on $58 million. Deadpool and Wolverine brought in 1.
338 billion, the highest grossing R-rated film ever. Reynolds real innovation is using fame to build equity. Aviation Jin became between 67 and $122 million when Dagio bought it in 2020. [music] His Mint Mobile stake became $300 million when T-Mobile purchased it in 2024. He and Rob Melhenny bought Rexum AFC for $2.5 million, spawning the Emmy-winning Welcome to Rexum.
Net worth [music] between 350 and $400 million. Reynolds figured out your face has value beyond the screen. >> Did you leak the footage? >> Was it you? >> It was one I Here's what I'll say. [laughter] >> Level five, the mogul Tyler Perry. Tyler Perry achieved something unprecedented. Complete debt-free ownership of a major film studio without a single outside investor.
Tyler Perry Studios sits on 330 acres of Fort McFersonson in Atlanta, [music] purchased in 2015 for $30 million despite being appraised at $75 million. Industry observers called it a sweetheart deal. Perry then invested $250 million of his own money to transform it into a complex with 12 purpose-built soundstages, 40 historic buildings, and permanent standing sets, including a White House replica and a 16,000 ft mansion.
The real power isn't buildings, it's what Perry owns. He finances productions without studio backing and retains 100% ownership of everything, over 22 films, more than 2,000 television episodes, and 24 stage plays. [music] His media franchise alone generated over $1 billion across 14 films. A 2017 Viacom CBS deal is worth $150 million annually, plus a 25% equity stake in BET Plus. economic impact.
Over 4,000 jobs, $60 million annual payroll, and $800 million flowing into Georgia's economy. Forbes confirmed his billionaire status in 2020 with current estimates between1 billion and $1.4 billion. [music] Perry explained how he pulled it off. Ownership was easy because I was underestimated. They said, [music] "Sure, you can own it.
" They didn't think it'd be worth anything. >> So, ownership was the key, man. Ownership. Everything in my life. I own every play, every movie, every character, every TV show. It's all owned by me. And that is what has set the difference of me being able to say, I'm going to set a path where I can open the door for everybody else.
>> Absolutely. >> Or waiting for somebody to give me a job. >> Reese Witherspoon. Reese Witherspoon built Hello Sunshine from a book club into a media empire, then sold it at exactly the right moment. November 2016 brought the company's founding with a specific thesis. Women's stories were undervalued and there was money to be made identifying them early.
The centerpiece was Reese's Book [music] Club, catapulting 63 books to the New York Times bestseller list. Hello Sunshine developed a pipeline to adapt those books, producing Big Little Lies with its 18 Emmy nominations, The Morning Show at $2 million per episode for Witherspoon and Where the Craads Sing at $144 million in box office.
August 2nd, 2021 [music] brought the defining moment when Blackstone's Candle Media acquired Hello Sunshine at a $900 million valuation. Blackstone paid $500 million to buy out investors and Witherspoon's estimated personal take after taxes came to around $120 million. Plus, she retained approximately 18% ownership.
The sale vindicated everything. After Big Little Lies won Emmys after Wild and Gone Girl earned Oscar nominations, Witherspoon still had only four employees and couldn't keep the lights on. [music] She described the realization, "I had self-funded my first company. Hello, Sunshine was her answer, a structure that could scale beyond personal involvement, net worth between 400 and $440 million.
" Forbes has named her the richest actress in Hollywood. George Clooney. George Clooney became a mogul through an unexpected vehicle, tequila.He founded Case Amigos in 2013 with Rand Gerber and Mike Meldman originally as a private label for their vacation homes in Mexico. They weren't trying to build a brand, they just wanted tequila they like to drink.
[music] June 2017 brought Diagio's acquisition for $700 million upfront, plus up to $300 million in performance-based earnouts, potentially $1 billion total. Clooney's estimated share from the upfront alone, at least $233 million. By 2022, Casamigos became the fastest growing spirits company in its category. Clooney's reaction captured the accidental nature.
If you asked us 4 years ago if we had a billion-dollar company, I don't think we would have said yes. Smokehouse Pictures, founded in 2006 with Grant Hez, has produced Prestige Fair. Argo won best picture in 2012, and Good Night [music] and Good Luck received six Oscar nominations. Clooney has directed nine films and remains the only person besides Walt Disney nominated for Academy Awards in six different categories.
Net worth approximately $500 million. [music] What makes Clooney level five rather than level four is scale and diversification. The tequila money puts him in a category where Hollywood work is almost a side project compared to his beverage empire. >> Money would go on the screen and gamble on the movie being good. If it's good, maybe you make some money.
If not, in doing so, I decided that I'd have to focus on other forms of business. I'd have to have a way to to make sure and ensure that I could make a living if this didn't work out. I bought a house in Mexico with Randy and then we started making our own tequila down in Halisco. Started off as gifts for our friends.
>> Oprah Winfrey. Oprah Winfrey invented the playbook Everyone at Level 5 follows. When the Oprah Winfrey show went into national syndication in 1986, [music] she made a decision that would define her career. She insisted on owning the show through Harpo Productions rather than accepting a salary.
That first year generated $125 million in revenue and Oprah's cut came to $30 million. By 2011, at the peak of the show's run, she earned $315 million annually. She became the first black female billionaire in 2003 at age [music] 49. The O network launched January 1st, 2011 as a 50/50 joint venture with Discovery. O Magazine generated $1 billion in consumer revenue.
Her investment power became legendary when she purchased 10% of Weight Watchers in 2015 for $43.2 $2 million at around $7 per share with the stock eventually climbing to $75, pushing her stakes value past $430 million. Business interests include True Food Kitchen and Oatley. Forbes estimates her net worth between $3.1 and $3.
2 billion with some sources citing $5 billion. What Oprah understood before anyone else in entertainment is that fame is a depreciating asset unless you convert it into ownership. She converted it better than anyone in history. You never want to be in a position where something is that important to you to do and you can't do it because the boss says you can't.
The fact that I had not been allowed the time for The Color Purple is the reason why I made the decision to take the risk to own my own show. >> Level Six, The Aur. Christopher Nolan. Christopher Nolan demonstrated exactly how much leverage a Level Six filmmaker holds when he walked away from Warner Brothers in late 2020. >> [music] >> The studio announced its entire 2021 slate would debut simultaneously in theaters and on HBO Max.
And Nolan called the decision a real bait and switch and took his next project elsewhere. Universal won the bidding war for Oppenheimer by agreeing to extraordinary terms, 15% of first dollar gross, [music] meaning Nolan earned money before the studio recouped a scent. He originally asked for 20% and his wife and producing partner Emma Thomas reportedly received the remaining 5% [music] complete final cut authority, a 100-day theatrical window guaranteed, a 6- week blackout on competing releases, and three weeks of IMAX
exclusivity. First, dollar gross is a structure only a handful of filmmakers in history have ever commanded, Spielberg and James Cameron among them. Oppenheimer grossed $958 million with Nolan's total earnings just under $100 million. He won his first Academy Awards for best director and best picture. His career box office exceeds $6 billion across 12 films.
On set, his control is absolute. Cell phones banned, film over digital, practical effects over CGI, no second unit. Every frame in his movies is shot by him personally. Quinton Tarantino. Quinton Tarantino has operated with Final Cut authority since 1993 when his original Miramax contract granted him reserved rights. These rights were carefully identified, bargained for, and memorialized in his deal, including print publication rights, screenplay publication rights, and theatrical and television sequel rights. When Harvey Weinstein fell and
Miramax changed hands, Tarantino's reserved rights survived because theybelonged to him, not the studio. That level of contractual protection is almost unheard of for a director who signed before having any real leverage. His career box office exceeds $1.9 billion, built entirely on original properties he wrote and directed himself.
No franchises, no adaptations, no sequels except Kill Bill Volume 2. What makes Tarantino unique at level six is his self-imposed constraint. Only 10 films then retiring. [music] I like that I will leave a 10 film filmography, he explained. 10 and done, leaving them wanting more. Nine films exist so far by his count, treating both Kill Bill volumes as a single [music] work.
His announced 10th, the movie critic, it was canled in April 2024 after a change of heart. The artificial scarcity around his filmography has only increased his mystique and leverage. And every Tarantino film is treated as an event precisely because there are so few [music] of them. >> I'm probably only going to make 10 movies, so I'm already planning on what I'm going to do after.
>> You said this. So, you're going to Are you seriously already? >> That's why I'm counting them. That's why I like two more left. Yeah. >> Greta Gerwig. Greta Gerwig achieved level six status faster than anyone in recent memory. Ladybird in 2017 cost $10 million and grossed $79 million while earning five Oscar nominations.
Little Women in 2019 made $218 million. Barbie earned $1.44 billion and became the highest grossing film ever directed solely by a woman. That progression from Indie Darling to Billiondoll Blockbuster in just 6 years gave Gerwig leverage that would normally take decades to accumulate. Before Barbie even opened, Netflix signed her to write and direct at least two chronicles of Narnia films.
The first, an adaptation of The Magician's Nephew, is scheduled for release on December 25th, 2026 [music] with a reported budget of approximately $200 million. The cast includes Daniel Craig, Carrie Mulligan, and Meryill Streep. Gerwig secured something Netflix rarely grants, a theatrical window. The film will play in IMAX theaters starting November 26th, 2026 for at least 2 weeks before moving to streaming.
That concession demonstrates just how much Netflix wanted Gerwig attached. She's spoken about aspiring to Christopher Nolan's back-end profit participation model, describing it as a way to bet on yourself. Her Barbie compensation of roughly $50 million when combining producing backend with directing fees suggests [music] she's already getting close to that goal. Ben Affleck.
Ben Affleck took auditous route to level six. His acting career had spectacular highs and public lows, but his directing work was consistently excellent. Gone Baby Gone in 2007 announced him as a serious filmmaker. The Town in 2010 was a commercial hit and Argo in 2012 won best picture. Even though Affleck was controversially snubbed for best director, that snub might have been the last time the industry underestimated him.
November 2022 brought the launch of Artists Equity with Matt Damon and backing from Redbird Capital Partners, who committed at least $100 million. The company's core innovation, [music] expanded profit participation for below the line creative talent, Affleck explained. not just writers and directors and stars but also cinematographers, editors, costume designers, and other crucial artists who, in my view, are very underpaid.
The idea aligns incentives across entire productions. If the film succeeds, everyone benefits, not just the people with the best agents. Air, the company's debut, grossed $90 million globally in 2023. The combined box office of Affleck and Damon exceeds $10.7 billion across more than 110 features. What distinguishes artists equity from a typical production company is its ambition to change how Hollywood compensates creative work at every level, not just [music] the top.
Clint Eastwood. Clint Eastwood has operated at level six longer than most people on this list have been alive. Malpaso Productions was founded in 1967, taking its name from Malpaso Creek near his caramel home. His agent warned that accepting a fistful of dollars was a bad step, and Eastwood named the company after that doubt as a reminder.
Malpaso's first production, Hangam High, in 1968 earned him $400,000 plus 25% of net box office. [music] A profit participation model unusual for actors at the time, becoming the template for everything after his Warner Brothers relationship has lasted nearly 50 years across more than 40 features, one of the longest studio filmmaker partnerships in history.
[music] Four Academy Awards, best director and best picture for Unforgiven in 1992 and again for Million-Dollar Baby in 2004. At 94, Eastwood directed juror number two in 2024. His efficiency is legendary, rarely more than a few takes, no elaborate setups. His creative control extends to composing scores for his own films, including Mystic River, Million-Dollar Baby, and Gran Torino.
[music] When you've worked at thehighest level for six decades, the system doesn't tell you what to do. You've become the system itself. Level seven, the untouchable. Steven Spielberg. Steven Spielberg stands at the very top of this hierarchy. His career box office exceeds $10.7 billion worldwide, roughly $2 billion more than second place James Cameron.
Three of his films became the highest grossing ever at release. Jaws, [music] ET, The Extraterrestrial, and Jurassic Park. No other director has broken his own all-time record twice. Amblin Entertainment was founded in 1980. Then in October 1994, he co-founded DreamWorks SKG with Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen, each contributing $33 million.
DreamWorks won three consecutive best picture Oscars from 1999 to 2001, American Beauty, Gladiator, and A Beautiful Mind. Spielberg's Oscar record is staggering. 13 best picture nominations as producer set the all-time record. Nine best director nominations tie him for third. He's the only director nominated in six different decades.
The Presidential Medal of Freedom arrived in 2015. Perhaps most remarkable is a deal most have never heard of. 2% of all Universal Parks ticket sales in perpetuity, generating 30 to $50 million annually without doing anything. [music] Forbes 2025 places his net worth at $5.3 billion, making him the richest celebrity billionaire with some estimates reaching $10 billion.
Spielberg doesn't ask permission to make movies. The industry asks permission to be part of his. Tom Cruz. Tom Cruz has spent four decades proving movie stardom isn't dead. You just have to be willing to do things no one else will do. His career box office exceeds $12 billion, placing him among the highest grossing actors in history.
[music] Raw numbers don't capture what makes Cruz untouchable. It's the way he's preserved theatrical experience when everyone else abandoned it. During the pandemic, when studios sold films to streaming, Cruz refused. He held Top Gun Maverick for theatrical release, waiting over 2 years for audiences to return. Maverick grossed 1.
496 billion, his highest grossing film ever. At the 2023 Oscar lunchon, Spielberg told him directly, "You saved Hollywood's ass. Maverick might have saved the entire theatrical industry." Mission Impossible has generated $4.13 billion across seven films under Cruz Wagner Productions, founded in 1992, giving him creative and casting control.
His practical stunts are explicitly budgeted, climbing the Burge Khalifa, a 25,000 ft halo jump, and motorcycle cliff dives. The Hollywood Reporter noted studios can only hope to influence Cruz. November 2025 brought an honorary Academy Award net worth approximately $600 million. But more than money, Cruz possesses absolute conviction that movies should be seen on the biggest screen possible and willingness to risk his life to make it worthwhile.
>> Merryill Streep. Merryill Streep holds a record no one else approaches. 21 Academy Award nominations belong to her, the most of any actor in history, 17 for best actress, and four for best supporting actress. Three Oscar wins place her alongside only Ingred Bergman and Jack Nicholson as the only performers with three competitive acting Oscars across multiple categories.
Her Golden Globe record is equally untouchable. More than 30 nominations and eight wins. The Presidential Medal of Freedom arrived in 2014 and the honorary Palm Door at KN followed in 2024. These aren't just career highlights. They're institutional recognitions that she has become woven into the cultural fabric itself.
What makes Stre's position remarkable is longevity. At 75, she continues landing major roles. Other actresses her age simply don't get offered. Big Little Lies featured her in a pivotal role. Only Murders in the Building brought an Emmy nomination, and Don't Look Up added another credit to a career spanning more than 50 years at the A-list level, a durability almost no other actor has matched.
The industry doesn't treat Meill Street like an actress looking for work. It treats her like a national treasure who occasionally agrees to grace a project with her presence. Alpuccino. Alpuccino defined what American screen acting could be across five decades. [music] Nine Oscar nominations span a career that includes some of the most iconic characters in film history.
Michael Corleone in The Godfather, Tony Montana in Scarface, Frank Serpico in Serpico. His single Oscar win for Sen of a Woman in 1992 delivered the huah that became part of cultural vocabulary. Pacino's influence extends beyond film as one of the few performers to achieve the triple crown of acting, having won an Oscar, Emmy, and Tony Award.
That rare distinction confirms range and mastery of craft that very few actors ever achieve. At 85, Pacino remains active in ways unusual for someone half his age. The Irishman in 2019 earned him his first Oscar nomination in 27 years, reminding audiences and the industry that his talent hadn't diminished one bit.
His2024 memoir, Sunny Boy, renewed public interest in his life and career, becoming a bestseller and generating conversation about his legacy. Pacino doesn't need to work. He's earned every right to disappear. He keeps showing up anyway. And when he does, the industry still pays attention. That sustained relevance over five decades is why he belongs at level seven.
>> DO YOU WANT TO PLAY WITH US? OKAY. SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND. >> Robert Dairo. Robert Dairo combined two Oscar wins with a business empire extending far beyond Hollywood. Best supporting actor for The Godfather Part Two in 1974 and best actor for Raging Bull in 1980 represent performances that fundamentally changed how audiences understood what was possible in film acting.
His cultural status as a titan of American cinema has never wavered in five decades. Dairo built beyond his acting legacy. Tribeca Productions was founded in 1989, leading to the Tribeca Film Festival in 2002, established specifically to revitalize lower Manhattan after September 11th. The festival has become one of the world's most respected, posting more than 600 screenings annually.
Business interests expanded through Nou, the restaurant group he co-founded in 1994. Now operating more than 50 restaurants and 13 luxury hotels worldwide. [music] He owns the Greenwich Hotel and has invested between 600 million and1 billion in Wildflower Studios. His 2023 Oscar nomination for Killers of the Flower Moon at age 80 proved he remains a vital screen presence.
The honorary palm door arrived at can in 2025. Net worth approximately $500 million. Dairo has reached a point where work, businesses, [music] and cultural influence have merged into something inseparable from American film history itself.
