Danie Krugel – Finding Missing Persons

Secret Emerging Technology Based on Quantum Physics

Apr 20, 2009 Karen Lotter

Danie Krugel an ex- cop from South Africa claims to be able to find missing persons across the globe with a single sample of DNA using a form of quantum physics.

Imagine if one only needed a sample of DNA like a stand of hair, some emerging technology based on what people describe as a form of quantum entanglement and a satellite GPS system to find missing persons across the globe – that would be one of the greatest detection devices ever invented.

Danie Krugel director of security services at the Central University of Technology in Bloemfontein, South Africa, claims to have developed this technology, based on quantum physics. He says that he can trace any human by using a hair sample. And he has proven it repeatedly over the past few years by finding numerous missing persons.

Questions Raised About Krugel

However, Krugel has also run into some heavy opposition from the scientific community and from skeptics alike, mainly because he refuses to allow his device to be tested or examined. He says he will only do so once the patent has been registered. Common questions about Krugel and his controversial Matter Oriented System (MOS) equipment are:

  • Why has Danie Krugel not published his findings for peer review by the scientific community?
  • Why does he keep appearing on television instead of publishing in peer review forensics publications or engineering journals?
  • Why will he not let anyone else have access to his “quantum physics-based” device”?
  • How can a former police officer with no training or education in engineering or science possibly come up with such a sophisticated device?

Who is Danie Krugel?

Danie Krugel is a former police officer from Bloemfontein in South Africa. With 16 years' experience in cult-related violent crime policing, Krugel is now devoting his life to finding missing people - free of charge. Details of the controversial Matter Oriented System (MOS) equipment, nicknamed the “quantum box” are being kept under wraps until it has been patented.

Madeline McCann Case

Danie was in Portugal during July 2007 at the invitation of the McCann parents to find their daughter Madeleine who went missing on 3 May 2007 while they were on holiday. After three days Danie provided the McCanns and local police with a full report including detailed maps of the location for searching. To date they have not acted on his information. He is convinced that she is buried there at the specified site, 900 meters from where she and her parents and siblings were staying Praia da Luz on the Algarve in Portugal.

What Skeptics say about Danie Krugel?

South African Forensics Expert Dr David Klatzow: "There is no evidence at the moment that he is actually measuring quantum entanglement, which is a real phenomenon. There are many, many people who are right in the thick of quantum physics and for a man to come out of a police background and with no quantum physics and no scientific training to make this world-shattering discovery is, to say the least, very unlikely."

Hoax debunker, James Randi issued a challenge after Krugel’s second appearance on local TV show Carte Blance: “All this leads us to enthusiastically offer Colonel Daniel Krugel, and Carte Blanche, the JREF million-dollar prize, if the MOS can operate as claimed. Tests would take less than an hour, and we already have experts standing by on site to spring into action as soon as Krugel or Carte Blanche give us the word.”

A Blog in South Africa entitled "Stop Danie Krugel" is very popular.

Possible Explanation for What Danie Krugel Does

According to some speculators, this emerging technology that is used to perform these “miracles” might just have nothing to do with “actual DNA” but more with a form of quantum entanglement. They believe that it is commonly known that everything in universe resonates at a certain specific unique frequency.

So, is it possible that Danie Krugel manages to identify this unique frequency from a test sample and then by triangulation and signal strength, is able to hone in on the corresponding source?

When he has patented his device, the world will surely know and if the reaction is positive, Krugel will certainly be hailed as one of the heroes of our times.

No, the above is not correct. He has numerous testimonials that he has helped. The plural of "testimonial" is not "evidence". Krügel still needs to provide compelling evidence that he can actually do what he says he can.

»According to some speculators, this emerging technology that is used to perform these “miracles” might just have nothing to do with “actual DNA” but more with a form of quantum entanglement.«

That will come as a PROFOUND surprise to those who do understand something of quantum mechanics. The closest we’ve come to quantum entanglement exhibiting macroscopically observable consequences is with Bose-Einstein condensates (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bose%E2%80%93Einstein_condensate) which require temperatures close to absolute zero, as well as a recent experiment involving superconductors (see http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2009/09/quantum-entanglement). The latter also involves extremely low temperatures.

In short, it would be astonishing (though not, of course, impossible) if Krügel has discovered something as earth shattering as he appears to have done. If his claims stand up to scientific scrutiny his discovery will stand proudly alongside relativity, Darwinism, the germ theory of disease and several other of our most important scientific discoveries. It would assure him of great fame and a good deal of fortune in the way of ready research grants if not a Nobel prize.

Is this likely? It is in my view a very safe bet to doubt it all, especially given that Krügel has been talking about patents for more than two years now, yet no apparent progress is being made.
