[Music]
exactly as I say you ready ready get her
there are around 2000 amateur ghost
hunting groups active in the US of the
present and a 2014 study in the UK found
that twice as many people believe in
ghosts then god there’s got to be
something behind those figures right
welcome to watchmojo.com it we’re
counting down the five most fascinating
things that you probably didn’t know

us wrong the purpose of today’s show

hunting or to endorse it for that matter
it’s just that technically speaking
there’s no scientific method to it can
we go can we go to the black and white
scale on the thermal
hey can you change that Thanks
it’s going to be easier to see if
anything shows on a window advocates
point to the increasingly advanced
technology of the equipment used in
ghost hunting as evidence of its
legitimacy but there’s no scientific
proof that the instruments used are
inherently linked to ghosts
electromagnetic field detectors infrared
cameras ultra-sensitive microphones and
Geiger counters may unearth odd
occurrences at any location but ghost
sensing skeptics will always identify
alternative logical explanations and
therefore label ghost hunting as a
pseudoscience on the other hand some
believers reason the technology isn’t
actually advanced enough for ghost
hunting yet which is why only some of us
sense them and no definitive Universal
proof exists I saw some ghosts a little

of energy in the universe is constant
then it can’t be created or destroyed so
when a human being dies where does all
their energy go reasonable naysayers say
it simply goes into the environment

nonsense and Einstein’s name but say
persistent paranormal proponents perhaps
there’s a little energy left over for
supernatural reasons in general science
doesn’t have a huge problem with the
idea of ghosts existing there’s just no
hard evidence available and there’s
still no universally agreed-upon
definition of what a ghost actually is
