Jeffrey Mishlove - The Afterlife, Weather Control and The Challenger Disaster | The Basement Trailer

TL;DR

Jeffrey Mishlove recounts winning $500K for the best scientific case for life after death, studying a man who claimed to predict the Challenger disaster, and his unique parapsychology PhD.

Key Points

  • 1.Jeffrey Mishlove holds the only parapsychology PhD ever awarded by an accredited American university. UC Berkeley granted it in 1980 after years of struggle; he had originally studied sociology and criminology before a vivid dream experience of his dying great-uncle converted him to parapsychology.
  • 2.Ted Owens claimed he could control weather and UFOs and warned Mishlove not to launch the next Space Shuttle. Owens said his UFOs would knock it out of the sky — roughly a month later, the Challenger exploded, a coincidence Mishlove spent 10 years investigating.
  • 3.Mishlove won the Bigelow Institute's $500,000 prize for the best scientific essay arguing consciousness survives death. Robert Bigelow personally called him with the news; Mishlove leveraged his criminology background to frame the case as if presenting evidence to a jury.
