>> I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS A WOMAN, I THOUGHT IT WAS A MAN.
EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT HER, BUT THEY'RE TALKING IN JAPAN,
THAT'S WHY I SHOW SHE WAS A WOMAN.
THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT WOMAN FLIER.
>> SHE IS NOW IN HER 90s WHO CHILDHOOD MEMORIES MAY BE KEY TO
SOLVING UP WITH OF THE BIGGEST MYSTERIES.
AMELIA EARHART WENT MISSING WHEN SHE A TEMPTED TO BE THE FIRST
WOMAN TO FLY AROUND THE WORLD. JOINING ME NOW IS SEAN HENRY,
OKAY, LET'S GET RIGHT TO IT. FIRST OF ALL WHAT DO YOU THINK?
>> I THINK SHE WAS IN THE MARSHALL ISLANDS, SHE SURVIVED,
AND SHE WAS TAKEN BY THE JAPANESE.
AFTER THAT, IT STOPS FOR ME. I THINK WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE
TOTALITY OF THE EVIDENCE, I THINK IT IS PROOF BEYOND A
REASONABLE DOUBT. >> LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT IT.
THE ONE WHERE YOU HAVE AMELIA EARHART, SUPPOSED TO BE THE
PERSON IN THE BACK THERE SITTING DOWN.
AND HERE SAVE YAY TOR IS THE MAN ALL OF THE WAY TO THE LEFT.
>> THIS CAME OUT OF THE U.S. NATIONAL ARCHIVES.
IT CAME OUT OF OFFICIALL GOVERNMENT RECORDS.
IT MAY HAVE BEEN MISFILEDING, AND THERE IS AN INVESTIGATOR WHO
HAS BEEN TRACKING IT FOR SO MANY YEARS, AND GOING THROUGH THE
ARCHIVES, AND HE FOUND THIS STACK OF PHOTOS.
HE TOOK THEM, HE KNEW NAY WERE RELATED TO WHERE HE THOUGHT SHE
WAS, AND WEEKS OR MONTHS LATER, HE SAW THIS AND TOOK A SECOND
LOOK. >> AND TO BOAT IN THE PICTURE,
IT IS ALLEGEDLY TOEING SOMETHING THAT IS 38 FEET IN LENGTH AND
THAT IS THE LENGTH OF HER PLANE. >> FOR ME, IT IS THE
CORROBORATING PIECE. STORIES HAVE BEEN TOLD FOR YEARS
BY THE MARSHALLESE. THEY SAY WE ALL KNEW SHE WAS
HERE, BUT NO ONE KNEW ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPH, AND IT CORROBORATES
THE PHOTOS SHE TOLD INCLUDING THE FACT THAT SHE WAS ON A BOAT
CALLED THE KOSHU. WE HAVE THESE TWO FIGURES HERE.
YOU'LL SEE THE ANALYSIS DONE, BUT IN THE BACK IS THE KOSHU.
THEY DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THAT PHOTOGRAPH.
>> SO YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENS, BUT WHAT MIGHT HAVE
HAPPENED? >> IT'S NOT REALLY CLEAR.
WE BELIEVE THE JAPANESE TOOK HER AND HELD HER THERE.
WHETHER SHE DIED IN CAPTIVITY, HAD AN ILLNESS --
>> THEY HAVE BEEN ASKED, RIGHT? >> THE JAPANESE HAVE BEEN ASKED,
THEY SAY THEY HAVE NO RECORDS. THEY HAVEAVE BEEN ASKED FOR YEA
AND THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY INFORMATION.
A LOT OF RECORDS WERE DESTROYED AFTER THE WAR.
ANYONE THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN
INVOLVED IS NOT ALIVE. >> PEOPLE REFUTE YOUR CLAIM
BECAUSE THEY SAY SHE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE ENOUGH FUEL TO GET THERE.
>> WE HAVE RECORDS THAT SHOW
