1
00:00:02,787 --> 00:00:04,746
I cannot wait to see this.
2
00:00:04,747 --> 00:00:05,707
Pretty amazing.
3
00:00:05,708 --> 00:00:06,826
Waiting for a long time.
4
00:00:06,827 --> 00:00:09,036
I mean, it's almost unheard of.
5
00:00:09,037 --> 00:00:11,077
I have never seen one in person.
6
00:00:12,957 --> 00:00:13,957
Wow.
7
00:00:13,958 --> 00:00:15,416
Incredible.
8
00:00:15,417 --> 00:00:17,246
That is freaky.
9
00:00:17,247 --> 00:00:18,746
It's odd, right?
10
00:00:18,747 --> 00:00:21,666
Are extraterrestrial artifacts
11
00:00:21,667 --> 00:00:24,576
being dismissed by scholars?
12
00:00:24,577 --> 00:00:29,626
This object had a date
of 140 million years.
14
00:00:29,627 --> 00:00:33,206
Is our scientific
process flawed?
15
00:00:33,207 --> 00:00:36,536
Scientists are
far too quick to put a period
16
00:00:36,537 --> 00:00:39,366
at the end of the sentence
and this is a problem.
17
00:00:39,367 --> 00:00:43,786
Will we be forced
to rewrite our history books?
18
00:00:43,787 --> 00:00:45,576
The findings are undeniable.
19
00:00:45,577 --> 00:00:47,366
We are not alone.
20
00:00:47,367 --> 00:00:48,916
Extraterrestrial,
human-like groups
21
00:00:48,917 --> 00:00:51,036
have been visiting us all along.
22
00:00:51,037 --> 00:00:53,326
Looks amazing.
23
00:01:27,141 --> 00:01:29,180
New York City.
24
00:01:29,181 --> 00:01:32,981
February 2017.
25
00:01:32,982 --> 00:01:37,021
At New York University,
Giorgio Tsoukalos meets
26
00:01:37,022 --> 00:01:39,771
with art collector Jared
Collins, who is in possession
27
00:01:39,772 --> 00:01:42,771
of a 2,000-year-old
elongated skull.
28
00:01:42,772 --> 00:01:44,191
Oh.
29
00:01:44,192 --> 00:01:45,891
Wow.
30
00:01:45,892 --> 00:01:47,771
That is fantastic.
31
00:01:47,772 --> 00:01:51,981
The skull is
incredibly well-preserved
32
00:01:51,982 --> 00:01:56,151
and Jared is having it tested
at the university to find out
33
00:01:56,152 --> 00:01:59,811
if it might possibly contain
abnormalities that indicate
34
00:01:59,812 --> 00:02:02,101
it is something
other than human.
35
00:02:02,102 --> 00:02:06,981
He agreed to meet Giorgio
outside of the Anthropology Lab
36
00:02:06,982 --> 00:02:09,061
for a first look at the skull.
37
00:02:09,062 --> 00:02:10,691
So, how did this come to be
in your possession?
38
00:02:10,692 --> 00:02:11,941
Well, it's not actually mine.
39
00:02:11,942 --> 00:02:13,601
It is on loan to me.
40
00:02:13,602 --> 00:02:15,351
Me and one of my colleagues
41
00:02:15,352 --> 00:02:18,061
contacted a museum
and we asked them,
42
00:02:18,062 --> 00:02:20,691
"Do you have an elongated skull
in your collection?"
43
00:02:20,692 --> 00:02:23,441
And they said they have
just one, this one.
44
00:02:23,442 --> 00:02:26,271
And have they
told you anything about it?
45
00:02:26,272 --> 00:02:28,021
- Actually...
- Like the provenance?
46
00:02:28,022 --> 00:02:32,191
Strangely, this has been
in storage for decades.
48
00:02:32,192 --> 00:02:34,811
They have never tested it.
49
00:02:34,812 --> 00:02:36,601
They had very little
information on it.
50
00:02:36,602 --> 00:02:39,651
They know it's
absolutely Paracas.
51
00:02:39,652 --> 00:02:41,191
So, this skull was found
52
00:02:41,192 --> 00:02:43,311
- in the Paracas region of Peru.
- That's right.
53
00:02:43,312 --> 00:02:46,521
But no real modern testing
has ever been done on this.
54
00:02:46,522 --> 00:02:47,981
Oh, this is amazing.
55
00:02:47,982 --> 00:02:50,061
So, let's go, right?
56
00:02:50,062 --> 00:02:51,812
Okay.
57
00:02:55,062 --> 00:02:59,771
NYU Professor of Anthropology Dr.
Todd Disotell
59
00:02:59,772 --> 00:03:02,521
agreed to conduct
a forensic evaluation
60
00:03:02,522 --> 00:03:04,351
of the elongated skull.
61
00:03:04,352 --> 00:03:07,391
I've seen casts;
I've never seen one in person.
62
00:03:07,392 --> 00:03:10,191
- Okay.
- Wow.
63
00:03:10,192 --> 00:03:14,191
That is... freaky.
64
00:03:14,192 --> 00:03:17,311
I mean, I just can't come up
with another term.
65
00:03:17,312 --> 00:03:19,441
I love that your first reaction
is that it's freaky,
66
00:03:19,442 --> 00:03:20,941
'cause I agree with you.
67
00:03:20,942 --> 00:03:22,191
Well, I mean, look at it.
That's...
68
00:03:22,192 --> 00:03:23,152
It's-it's quite bizarre.
69
00:03:23,153 --> 00:03:25,811
I can see that
70
00:03:25,812 --> 00:03:28,651
this is a relatively
young individual.
71
00:03:28,652 --> 00:03:30,231
And how did you determine that,
for example?
72
00:03:30,232 --> 00:03:31,981
Well, so, by looking
at the teeth.
73
00:03:31,982 --> 00:03:36,061
We have some deciduous,
or some baby teeth, remaining.
74
00:03:36,062 --> 00:03:39,101
It doesn't yet have
its third molar,
75
00:03:39,102 --> 00:03:43,101
which typically comes in
around 18 years old or so.
76
00:03:43,102 --> 00:03:46,021
So, I-I would guess that this
77
00:03:46,022 --> 00:03:48,771
is somewhere maybe
12 to 14 years old.
78
00:03:48,772 --> 00:03:50,391
Really?
79
00:03:50,392 --> 00:03:53,731
Um, let me just,
uh, move it over
80
00:03:53,732 --> 00:03:56,651
- to the sterile bench surface.
- Mm-hmm.
81
00:03:56,652 --> 00:03:59,651
Wow.
So, it's very fascinating.
82
00:03:59,652 --> 00:04:02,151
Besides the shape.
83
00:04:02,152 --> 00:04:04,151
The sagittal suture
84
00:04:04,152 --> 00:04:08,851
looks like it has
completely fused.
85
00:04:08,852 --> 00:04:10,731
If it's an adolescent,
maybe 12 years old,
86
00:04:10,732 --> 00:04:12,731
isn't that quite young
to have a-a fusion so...
87
00:04:12,732 --> 00:04:14,851
It is, but...
88
00:04:14,852 --> 00:04:16,601
- I'm holding it, I'm looking at it.
- Yeah, yeah.
89
00:04:16,602 --> 00:04:19,481
And it's just been
completely obliterated.
90
00:04:19,482 --> 00:04:22,811
The sagittal suture is the seam
91
00:04:22,812 --> 00:04:27,061
where the two parietal bones
of the skull come together.
92
00:04:27,062 --> 00:04:32,101
Although the markings may be
faint due to fusing over time,
93
00:04:32,102 --> 00:04:34,811
all human skulls are expected
94
00:04:34,812 --> 00:04:38,061
to have some evidence
of this feature,
95
00:04:38,062 --> 00:04:42,061
so it is curious
that this skull does not,
96
00:04:42,062 --> 00:04:45,731
nor do the skulls of a number
of other mysterious specimens
97
00:04:45,732 --> 00:04:50,891
that have been collected and
examined by various experts.
98
00:04:50,892 --> 00:04:54,231
One of the great enigmas
of planet Earth
99
00:04:54,232 --> 00:04:56,441
is that all over the world
100
00:04:56,442 --> 00:05:00,521
we find skeletons with people
101
00:05:00,522 --> 00:05:04,941
having these elongated skulls.
102
00:05:04,942 --> 00:05:09,601
For centuries, various
native cultures have engaged
103
00:05:09,602 --> 00:05:11,351
in the ritual practice
104
00:05:11,352 --> 00:05:14,311
of artificially
elongating their skulls
105
00:05:14,312 --> 00:05:18,271
by tightly wrapping the heads of
their children through infancy.
106
00:05:18,272 --> 00:05:22,231
However, these skulls
still feature evidence
107
00:05:22,232 --> 00:05:25,061
of the cranial sutures.
108
00:05:25,062 --> 00:05:27,771
You also have
the whole speculation
109
00:05:27,772 --> 00:05:30,601
of why people were doing
the head binding
110
00:05:30,602 --> 00:05:33,231
and the artificial
elongation anyway.
111
00:05:33,232 --> 00:05:34,851
Why were they doing that?
112
00:05:34,852 --> 00:05:37,891
They wanted to have
these elongated skulls
113
00:05:37,892 --> 00:05:41,151
and to them
it represented the elite,
114
00:05:41,152 --> 00:05:44,271
the gods, the rulers.
115
00:05:44,272 --> 00:05:49,151
And you have to wonder if
there was a race here on Earth
116
00:05:49,152 --> 00:05:53,351
with these elongated heads and
were they extraterrestrials?
117
00:05:53,352 --> 00:05:57,191
Okay, let's move on
118
00:05:57,192 --> 00:06:00,231
to extracting some tooth
and bone powder
119
00:06:00,232 --> 00:06:02,231
to get DNA out of that.
120
00:06:02,232 --> 00:06:04,771
- Okay. Excellent.
- Yeah.
121
00:06:04,772 --> 00:06:06,391
In order to obtain
122
00:06:06,392 --> 00:06:09,811
the needed genetic material
from the artifact,
123
00:06:09,812 --> 00:06:14,481
Dr. Disotell will need to remove
a tooth and drill into it
124
00:06:14,482 --> 00:06:16,271
to extract the samples.
125
00:06:16,272 --> 00:06:19,731
The analysis of the material
will determine the sex,
126
00:06:19,732 --> 00:06:23,811
ancestral lineage of both
the father and the mother,
127
00:06:23,812 --> 00:06:26,691
and any DNA anomalies
when compared
128
00:06:26,692 --> 00:06:29,482
with the current
human genetic database.
129
00:06:31,522 --> 00:06:34,191
Looks pretty good.
130
00:06:34,192 --> 00:06:39,351
So, we will pack this up
and send it off
131
00:06:39,352 --> 00:06:41,651
and in four to six weeks,
they should have the result.
132
00:06:41,652 --> 00:06:43,521
Four to six weeks, okay.
133
00:06:43,522 --> 00:06:45,851
Thank you very much, really
appreciate your input on this.
134
00:06:45,852 --> 00:06:47,814
- Take care, gentlemen.
- You got it. -Thanks a lot.
135
00:06:49,652 --> 00:06:52,651
For hundreds of years,
researchers have been confronted
136
00:06:52,652 --> 00:06:56,651
with numerous
scientific anomalies.
137
00:06:56,652 --> 00:07:01,151
But traditional science
is often intolerant of evidence
138
00:07:01,152 --> 00:07:05,391
that doesn't fit neatly
within accepted frameworks.
139
00:07:05,392 --> 00:07:07,811
Because of these prejudices,
140
00:07:07,812 --> 00:07:10,191
could we be missing
a greater truth
141
00:07:10,192 --> 00:07:14,481
about mankind's origins?
142
00:07:14,482 --> 00:07:18,811
I think scientists
need to look at these things,
143
00:07:18,812 --> 00:07:22,311
and instead of just dismissing
it offhand right away,
144
00:07:22,312 --> 00:07:24,691
to be like, wait a second.
145
00:07:24,692 --> 00:07:26,191
Maybe we are not the first.
146
00:07:26,192 --> 00:07:29,191
Maybe another civilization
did exist.
147
00:07:29,192 --> 00:07:32,391
Perhaps there is an
extraterrestrial connection.
148
00:07:32,392 --> 00:07:34,981
Because clearly we have
a mystery there
149
00:07:34,982 --> 00:07:36,406
and everybody's
looking the other way.
150
00:07:41,232 --> 00:07:44,601
Glen Rose, Texas.
151
00:07:44,602 --> 00:07:46,851
This rural, southern town
152
00:07:46,852 --> 00:07:50,561
has a population of only 2,500,
153
00:07:50,562 --> 00:07:52,731
but may hold one of the most
154
00:07:52,732 --> 00:07:57,311
incredible archaeological
artifacts ever found.
155
00:07:57,312 --> 00:08:01,441
At the Creation Evidence Museum
156
00:08:01,442 --> 00:08:05,771
is an ancient hammer known
as the "London Artifact,"
157
00:08:05,772 --> 00:08:07,941
named after
the central Texas town
158
00:08:07,942 --> 00:08:11,771
where it was discovered in 1936.
159
00:08:11,772 --> 00:08:15,561
The hammer itself was found
in the Travis Formation.
160
00:08:15,562 --> 00:08:18,106
It's a concretion of sandstone.
161
00:08:18,107 --> 00:08:21,486
And it usually takes about a 140
million years for this to form.
162
00:08:21,487 --> 00:08:24,146
That would put it
at 140 million years old.
163
00:08:24,147 --> 00:08:27,986
Mainstream scientists contend
164
00:08:27,987 --> 00:08:33,776
that the first modern humans
emerged only 200,000 years ago.
165
00:08:33,777 --> 00:08:38,776
But if so, how is it possible
that such an artifact exists?
166
00:08:38,777 --> 00:08:43,865
The hammer was scientifically
analyzed in the 1980s
167
00:08:43,866 --> 00:08:46,155
by two independent labs,
168
00:08:46,156 --> 00:08:49,615
the Creation Science Foundation
based in Australia
169
00:08:49,616 --> 00:08:53,945
and the Batelle Memorial
Laboratory in Columbus, Ohio.
170
00:08:53,946 --> 00:08:57,905
Incredibly, both labs
concluded that the hammer
171
00:08:57,906 --> 00:09:01,865
could indeed be
over 100 million years old.
172
00:09:01,866 --> 00:09:04,035
Part of the handle, actually,
173
00:09:04,036 --> 00:09:07,075
is starting to go through a
process called coalification.
174
00:09:07,076 --> 00:09:09,985
It's where you have inorganic
material and organic material
175
00:09:09,986 --> 00:09:11,905
changing into coal.
176
00:09:11,906 --> 00:09:13,695
This is something that
just simply can't happen
177
00:09:13,696 --> 00:09:16,115
in the span of, say,
a hundred years.
178
00:09:16,116 --> 00:09:18,285
Like most people saying,
"Oh, this is nothing more
179
00:09:18,286 --> 00:09:19,865
"than a hammer
that was left behind
180
00:09:19,866 --> 00:09:22,986
by a would-be prospector
from the mid-1800s."
181
00:09:26,625 --> 00:09:29,004
In addition to coalification,
182
00:09:29,005 --> 00:09:33,685
the handle of the hammer
shows signs of petrification.
183
00:09:33,686 --> 00:09:36,049
This process of the organic wood
184
00:09:36,050 --> 00:09:38,459
being replaced
by mineral crystals
185
00:09:38,460 --> 00:09:40,629
takes millions of years.
186
00:09:40,630 --> 00:09:45,089
Test results concluded that
the material on the hammerhead
187
00:09:45,090 --> 00:09:50,669
consisted of 96.6% iron,
2.6% chlorine
188
00:09:50,670 --> 00:09:53,879
and less than one percent
sulfur.
189
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,839
Incredibly, this material
contained no carbon
190
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,549
to indicate
modern manufacturing.
191
00:10:00,550 --> 00:10:04,799
When we were
making steel for tools,
192
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,999
part of the process
is to use a blast furnace
193
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,499
to remove carbon
out of it completely,
194
00:10:11,500 --> 00:10:15,209
but we always have about point
two to two percent left over.
195
00:10:15,210 --> 00:10:17,299
There's always a carbon
signature on our steel,
196
00:10:17,300 --> 00:10:18,919
but there wasn't
any carbon whatsoever
197
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,089
that was found in this
particular material.
198
00:10:21,090 --> 00:10:26,669
This object may be
as old as 140 million years.
199
00:10:26,670 --> 00:10:30,839
And obviously,
that's a crazy proposition
200
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,669
if you think that modern-day
archeology suggests
201
00:10:33,670 --> 00:10:36,919
that we've only been around
for about 10,000 years,
202
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,549
you know, creating stuff
with our own hands.
203
00:10:39,550 --> 00:10:42,129
So, this falls into the category
204
00:10:42,130 --> 00:10:45,299
of out of place artifacts.
205
00:10:45,300 --> 00:10:48,919
Artifacts that shouldn't exist.
206
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,589
If the London Hammer
really dates back
207
00:10:52,590 --> 00:10:57,049
to over 100 million years,
as the data suggests,
208
00:10:57,050 --> 00:10:59,919
this find would have to
fundamentally reshape
209
00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:03,130
our understanding of human
development on Planet Earth.
210
00:11:05,380 --> 00:11:07,879
But ancient astronaut
theorists suggest
211
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,049
there is another,
much more substantial relic
212
00:11:11,050 --> 00:11:14,030
of the ancient world
that is far older
213
00:11:14,031 --> 00:11:16,570
than mainstream
archaeologists propose:
214
00:11:16,571 --> 00:11:20,151
the Great Pyramid of Giza.
215
00:11:24,209 --> 00:11:26,328
Giza, Egypt.
216
00:11:26,329 --> 00:11:30,118
Here, on the west bank
of the Nile,
217
00:11:30,119 --> 00:11:33,998
stands the oldest of the Seven
Wonders of the Ancient World:
218
00:11:33,999 --> 00:11:36,418
the Great Pyramid.
219
00:11:36,419 --> 00:11:39,591
According to accepted history,
220
00:11:39,592 --> 00:11:43,221
the Great Pyramid was built
around 2500 BC
221
00:11:43,222 --> 00:11:45,422
as a tomb for the Pharaoh Khufu.
222
00:11:48,262 --> 00:11:50,881
However, the dating
of the pyramid
223
00:11:50,882 --> 00:11:53,381
and its association with Khufu
224
00:11:53,382 --> 00:11:58,181
is based entirely on evidence
discovered in May of 1837
225
00:11:58,182 --> 00:12:01,092
by British explorer
Richard Howard Vyse.
226
00:12:04,302 --> 00:12:07,592
Colonel Vyse, um,
basically used, um, gunpowder...
227
00:12:40,762 --> 00:12:43,421
Since stone
cannot be carbon-dated,
228
00:12:43,422 --> 00:12:45,421
and no other inscriptions,
229
00:12:45,422 --> 00:12:47,721
except for the Pharaoh's
official monogram,
230
00:12:47,722 --> 00:12:49,761
were found on the pyramid,
231
00:12:49,762 --> 00:12:52,971
this date has stood
relatively unchallenged.
232
00:12:52,972 --> 00:12:57,011
However, new evidence
that has been found
233
00:12:57,012 --> 00:12:59,471
in Colonel Vyse's
personal journal
234
00:12:59,472 --> 00:13:03,131
has researchers questioning
his discovery.
235
00:13:03,132 --> 00:13:05,221
Some have even suggested
236
00:13:05,222 --> 00:13:08,632
that he may have forged
the name of Khufu himself.
237
00:13:36,422 --> 00:13:39,631
After the contradicting
evidence was exposed,
239
00:13:39,632 --> 00:13:45,221
in 2014, two University of
Dresden archaeology students
240
00:13:45,222 --> 00:13:49,261
smuggled a sample of the paint
used in the King Khufu markings
241
00:13:49,262 --> 00:13:51,631
and had it analyzed
by a German laboratory.
242
00:13:51,632 --> 00:13:55,721
The sample was too small
for radiocarbon dating,
243
00:13:55,722 --> 00:14:00,011
but the technicians were able
to determine something shocking:
244
00:14:00,012 --> 00:14:05,261
the pigment was not painted onto
the original limestone blocks,
245
00:14:05,262 --> 00:14:09,091
but a later plaster repair.
246
00:14:09,092 --> 00:14:13,301
This finding suggests that
the cartouche was not original
247
00:14:13,302 --> 00:14:17,342
to the pyramid construction,
but added at a much later date.
248
00:14:19,922 --> 00:14:25,091
Colonel Vyse had spent nearly
$1.3 million on his expedition
249
00:14:25,092 --> 00:14:29,091
to uncover truths
about the Great Pyramid.
250
00:14:29,092 --> 00:14:33,011
Is it possible that in his
desperation to find something,
251
00:14:33,012 --> 00:14:37,221
he did the unthinkable and
forged the cartouche of Khufu
252
00:14:37,222 --> 00:14:42,091
onto the chamber wall, thereby
establishing an inaccurate date
253
00:14:42,092 --> 00:14:43,472
for the structure?
254
00:14:45,222 --> 00:14:48,681
Interestingly,
this is not the only evidence
255
00:14:48,682 --> 00:14:50,881
contradicting the dating
of the Pyramid
256
00:14:50,882 --> 00:14:54,091
and the entire Giza Complex.
257
00:14:54,092 --> 00:14:59,181
A seventh century BC text
known as the Inventory Stela,
258
00:14:59,182 --> 00:15:02,681
unearthed by archaeologists
in 1858,
259
00:15:02,682 --> 00:15:05,131
details repairs
made by Pharaoh Khufu,
260
00:15:05,132 --> 00:15:07,422
including work on the Sphinx.
261
00:15:29,012 --> 00:15:32,092
Could the dating of
the entire Giza site be wrong?
262
00:15:34,382 --> 00:15:39,881
In 1992, Boston University
geologist Robert Schoch
263
00:15:39,882 --> 00:15:42,801
created a stir
among Egyptologists
264
00:15:42,802 --> 00:15:46,471
when he suggested that, based
on the evidence of water erosion
265
00:15:46,472 --> 00:15:48,261
at the Sphinx enclosure,
266
00:15:48,262 --> 00:15:54,091
he would date the site
to approximately 10,500 BC.
267
00:15:54,092 --> 00:15:56,881
Immediately,
without even seeing my evidence,
268
00:15:56,882 --> 00:15:59,591
they start going,
"It doesn't go back that far."
269
00:15:59,592 --> 00:16:02,761
I was talking about
real evidence, real science,
270
00:16:02,762 --> 00:16:05,381
which they simply did not
want to hear,
271
00:16:05,382 --> 00:16:09,471
because it did not fit
their preconceptions.
272
00:16:09,472 --> 00:16:11,341
Like the Sphinx,
273
00:16:11,342 --> 00:16:15,421
is it possible that the Great
Pyramid is also far older
274
00:16:15,422 --> 00:16:18,551
than Egyptologists
are willing to admit?
275
00:16:18,552 --> 00:16:22,051
But if so, just who built it?
276
00:16:22,052 --> 00:16:28,131
According to Arabian writers
Ibrahim al-Maqrizi,
278
00:16:28,132 --> 00:16:31,721
the Great Pyramid
was not constructed by Khufu,
279
00:16:31,722 --> 00:16:34,341
the Great Pyramid
was constructed
280
00:16:34,342 --> 00:16:36,051
long before the Great Flood
281
00:16:36,052 --> 00:16:38,762
by a king
with the name of Surid.
282
00:16:41,262 --> 00:16:44,721
And then, the old
Arabian writers clearly say
283
00:16:44,722 --> 00:16:50,471
Surid is the same figure which
the Hebrew society calls Enoch.
284
00:16:50,472 --> 00:16:54,011
Enoch was taken
up into the heavens
285
00:16:54,012 --> 00:16:56,221
by the archangel Michael.
286
00:16:56,222 --> 00:17:00,551
He was told by the angels
of a coming cataclysm
287
00:17:00,552 --> 00:17:03,881
and he was instructed
to build the Great Pyramid
288
00:17:03,882 --> 00:17:06,091
as a repository
for the knowledge
289
00:17:06,092 --> 00:17:07,921
that he not only
learned in Heaven,
290
00:17:07,922 --> 00:17:10,681
but all the earthly knowledge
as well.
291
00:17:10,682 --> 00:17:15,382
Perhaps these were otherworldly
beings described as angels.
292
00:17:18,302 --> 00:17:22,011
Maybe everything we know
about Egyptology is wrong.
293
00:17:22,012 --> 00:17:24,971
And we have to go back and,
and open up our imagination
294
00:17:24,972 --> 00:17:28,761
to the possibility
that there's another explanation
295
00:17:28,762 --> 00:17:31,341
that in fact involves the
assistance of extraterrestrials
296
00:17:31,342 --> 00:17:33,802
in the creation of
the Great Pyramid.
297
00:17:36,472 --> 00:17:39,551
In November 2015,
298
00:17:39,552 --> 00:17:42,511
researchers at Giza
scanned the Great Pyramid
299
00:17:42,512 --> 00:17:44,051
using thermal cameras,
300
00:17:44,052 --> 00:17:47,341
and found two anomalous areas.
301
00:17:47,342 --> 00:17:51,011
They submitted a request
to the Department of Antiquities
302
00:17:51,012 --> 00:17:53,301
to do a more
formal investigation
303
00:17:53,302 --> 00:17:55,761
in hopes of locating
what they believe
304
00:17:55,762 --> 00:17:58,381
might be hidden chambers.
305
00:17:58,382 --> 00:18:03,341
As scientists continue to
discover new finds at the site,
306
00:18:03,342 --> 00:18:05,301
might they stumble upon
the evidence
307
00:18:05,302 --> 00:18:08,091
that supports
the ancient accounts?
308
00:18:08,092 --> 00:18:13,221
After all, this has
happened before,
310
00:18:13,222 --> 00:18:15,682
with the unearthing
of a once mythical land.
311
00:18:24,084 --> 00:18:27,623
Hisarlik, Turkey. 1870.
312
00:18:27,624 --> 00:18:30,453
This small village is the site
313
00:18:30,454 --> 00:18:34,413
of one of the most sensational
discoveries of the 19th century:
314
00:18:34,414 --> 00:18:38,793
the legendary city of Troy.
315
00:18:38,794 --> 00:18:42,453
The city was the infamous
location for the Trojan War
316
00:18:42,454 --> 00:18:45,454
described in the classic
Greek epic The Iliad.
317
00:18:48,834 --> 00:18:50,373
Prior to its discovery
318
00:18:50,374 --> 00:18:53,413
by amateur archaeologist
Heinrich Schliemann,
319
00:18:53,414 --> 00:18:58,743
Troy was considered
to be a mythical location.
320
00:18:58,744 --> 00:19:04,083
Heinrich Schliemann, a German
businessman and pioneer,
321
00:19:04,084 --> 00:19:07,533
read Homer's Odyssey
and The Iliad
322
00:19:07,534 --> 00:19:11,493
and he became convinced
that Troy existed
323
00:19:11,494 --> 00:19:16,243
somewhere in Turkey, where
it's placed within the story.
324
00:19:16,244 --> 00:19:19,743
So he went out to Turkey
325
00:19:19,744 --> 00:19:23,123
and he asked
the locals out there
326
00:19:23,124 --> 00:19:25,163
what they knew about
the legends.
327
00:19:25,164 --> 00:19:28,083
And they eventually pointed him
in the direction
328
00:19:28,084 --> 00:19:31,033
of a huge mound.
329
00:19:31,034 --> 00:19:33,293
So here he dug,
330
00:19:33,294 --> 00:19:38,453
and he found
the lost city of Troy itself.
331
00:19:38,454 --> 00:19:40,793
In addition to Troy,
332
00:19:40,794 --> 00:19:43,123
other cities that were
previously relegated
333
00:19:43,124 --> 00:19:45,293
to the realm of mythology
334
00:19:45,294 --> 00:19:48,164
have also been discovered
to be real.
335
00:19:49,584 --> 00:19:52,083
The Mediterranean Sea.
336
00:19:52,084 --> 00:19:53,743
2000.
337
00:19:53,744 --> 00:19:55,743
A group of divers working off
338
00:19:55,744 --> 00:19:58,453
the Egyptian coast
near Alexandria
339
00:19:58,454 --> 00:20:01,293
discovered the submerged ruins
of statues
340
00:20:01,294 --> 00:20:03,953
and even entire
temple complexes.
341
00:20:03,954 --> 00:20:06,203
One instance of the
discovery of something
342
00:20:06,204 --> 00:20:07,793
that we thought was legendary
343
00:20:07,794 --> 00:20:10,493
was the discovery of
Heracleion, Thonis,
344
00:20:10,494 --> 00:20:12,833
near Alexandria.
345
00:20:12,834 --> 00:20:15,793
We had read about this in
Greek myth and Greek histories.
346
00:20:15,794 --> 00:20:17,533
We had no evidence for it.
347
00:20:17,534 --> 00:20:20,333
And then, one day,
it gets discovered.
348
00:20:20,334 --> 00:20:25,033
Dating back
to the seventh century BC,
349
00:20:25,034 --> 00:20:29,033
Thonis, or Heracleion,
as it was known to the Greeks,
350
00:20:29,034 --> 00:20:31,293
was cited in ancient myths
351
00:20:31,294 --> 00:20:33,833
as a major trading post
for the region.
352
00:20:33,834 --> 00:20:35,583
For a long time.
353
00:20:35,584 --> 00:20:38,913
Heracleion in Egypt
was in many stories,
354
00:20:38,914 --> 00:20:41,833
but had not been found
until the year 2000.
355
00:20:41,834 --> 00:20:45,663
In India, in the year 2001,
356
00:20:45,664 --> 00:20:47,333
something similar happened.
357
00:20:47,334 --> 00:20:51,493
The Mahabharata
tells of the time
358
00:20:51,494 --> 00:20:55,993
Lord Vishnu built a great
fortified city, Dvaraka.
359
00:20:55,994 --> 00:20:58,533
It was thought to be
an imaginary place
360
00:20:58,534 --> 00:21:00,663
and then, it was discovered.
361
00:21:00,664 --> 00:21:04,913
And before that, in the first
half of the 20th century,
362
00:21:04,914 --> 00:21:06,873
there is another example.
363
00:21:06,874 --> 00:21:09,993
In the Bible, Joshua fought
the Battle of Jericho,
364
00:21:09,994 --> 00:21:11,833
but we didn't know
if there was a Jericho
365
00:21:11,834 --> 00:21:14,413
until it was discovered
by archeologists.
366
00:21:14,414 --> 00:21:17,663
This lets us know that there is
more information in myth
367
00:21:17,664 --> 00:21:19,834
than we might have thought.
368
00:21:21,874 --> 00:21:24,703
But of all the places on Earth
369
00:21:24,704 --> 00:21:26,953
that were thought to be
mythological,
370
00:21:26,954 --> 00:21:29,913
the one that has inspired
the most fascination,
371
00:21:29,914 --> 00:21:32,623
and has proven the most elusive,
372
00:21:32,624 --> 00:21:35,913
is not a city,
but an entire continent:
373
00:21:35,914 --> 00:21:37,663
Atlantis.
374
00:21:37,664 --> 00:21:42,123
As described by Plato
in the fourth century AD,
375
00:21:42,124 --> 00:21:46,293
Atlantis was the home of
a highly advanced civilization
376
00:21:46,294 --> 00:21:48,623
which mysteriously disappeared
into the ocean
377
00:21:48,624 --> 00:21:51,533
thousands of years ago.
378
00:21:51,534 --> 00:21:55,083
While mainstream scholars
continue to dismiss Atlantis
379
00:21:55,084 --> 00:21:57,993
as nothing more than
a fanciful myth,
380
00:21:57,994 --> 00:22:00,623
there are many who believe
Plato's account
381
00:22:00,624 --> 00:22:04,203
was based on a very real place.
382
00:22:04,204 --> 00:22:08,743
But if Atlantis, like other
formerly mythical locations,
383
00:22:08,744 --> 00:22:11,373
were discovered,
would it offer proof
384
00:22:11,374 --> 00:22:14,704
of extraterrestrial contact
with early humans?
385
00:22:21,124 --> 00:22:25,623
Dunedin, New Zealand.
February 2017.
386
00:22:25,624 --> 00:22:30,373
Scientists at New Zealand's
top geological institute,
387
00:22:30,374 --> 00:22:32,083
GNS Science,
388
00:22:32,084 --> 00:22:35,413
announce the discovery
of a lost continent,
389
00:22:35,414 --> 00:22:39,413
one that sunk into the ocean
millions of years ago.
390
00:22:39,414 --> 00:22:42,743
They dub the landmass
"Zealandia,"
391
00:22:42,744 --> 00:22:45,793
as it extends directly
under New Zealand.
392
00:22:45,794 --> 00:22:49,743
Although it is almost
entirely underwater,
393
00:22:49,744 --> 00:22:52,413
it fits the definition
of a continent
394
00:22:52,414 --> 00:22:55,163
as it consists of
an intact piece of crust
395
00:22:55,164 --> 00:22:58,583
that is distinctly different
from the ocean floor,
396
00:22:58,584 --> 00:23:02,533
and clearly separated
from Australia.
397
00:23:02,534 --> 00:23:06,743
This was a shocking discovery,
398
00:23:06,744 --> 00:23:08,873
because they thought the number
of continents on Earth
399
00:23:08,874 --> 00:23:10,623
had been basically fixed.
400
00:23:10,624 --> 00:23:12,373
Now, this one looks like
it could have been
401
00:23:12,374 --> 00:23:14,033
another continent,
402
00:23:14,034 --> 00:23:16,833
where perhaps
human beings dwelled.
403
00:23:16,834 --> 00:23:18,533
And if it was,
404
00:23:18,534 --> 00:23:20,914
this could certainly rewrite
a lot of history books.
405
00:23:23,294 --> 00:23:27,663
Could this be
the lost continent of Atlantis?
406
00:23:27,664 --> 00:23:29,533
Ancient astronaut theorists
407
00:23:29,534 --> 00:23:32,623
say that it is
a distinct possibility.
408
00:23:32,624 --> 00:23:35,873
There is an ongoing bias
among scientists
409
00:23:35,874 --> 00:23:38,413
that anything from the
ancient past must, therefore,
410
00:23:38,414 --> 00:23:42,413
be a made-up fake story, a myth.
411
00:23:42,414 --> 00:23:46,333
And yet, these scientists
have to look at the reality
412
00:23:46,334 --> 00:23:49,703
that archaeological discoveries
are verifying
413
00:23:49,704 --> 00:23:52,414
that the actual stories
have merit.
414
00:23:58,512 --> 00:24:00,391
New York City.
415
00:24:00,392 --> 00:24:02,971
February 2017.
416
00:24:02,972 --> 00:24:05,801
That's pretty amazing
we were able to do this.
417
00:24:05,802 --> 00:24:09,181
Giorgio Tsoukalos
and Jared Collins
418
00:24:09,182 --> 00:24:11,301
continue their scientific
investigation
419
00:24:11,302 --> 00:24:15,141
of a mysterious 2000-year-old
elongated skull.
420
00:24:15,142 --> 00:24:17,551
We were able to set up
a CT scan.
421
00:24:17,552 --> 00:24:19,852
I mean,
that's almost unheard of.
422
00:24:22,012 --> 00:24:23,141
Wow.
423
00:24:23,142 --> 00:24:26,551
Because anthropologist Dr.
Todd Disotell
425
00:24:26,552 --> 00:24:29,471
found this skull to be missing
the sagittal suture
426
00:24:29,472 --> 00:24:33,301
that exists on all
naturally formed human skulls,
427
00:24:33,302 --> 00:24:36,471
Giorgio and Jared have taken it
428
00:24:36,472 --> 00:24:40,301
to New York University's
radiology department.
429
00:24:40,302 --> 00:24:43,221
There, it will be subjected
to a CT scan...
430
00:24:43,222 --> 00:24:44,971
- Let's scan it.
- Yeah, let's see what's inside.
431
00:24:44,972 --> 00:24:47,221
...which should reveal
whether or not
432
00:24:47,222 --> 00:24:49,221
the skull really is
missing the suture,
433
00:24:49,222 --> 00:24:53,761
or if it is simply
not visible to the naked eye.
434
00:24:53,762 --> 00:24:58,301
During the procedure, a series
of computerized x-ray images
435
00:24:58,302 --> 00:25:02,431
are taken from 360 degrees
and stacked together
436
00:25:02,432 --> 00:25:04,511
to form a 3-D image.
437
00:25:04,512 --> 00:25:07,261
If any hairline evidence
of the missing suture exists,
438
00:25:07,262 --> 00:25:10,221
it will show up in the scan.
439
00:25:10,222 --> 00:25:12,511
That looks amazing.
440
00:25:12,512 --> 00:25:14,591
- It is incredible.
- Isn't it incredible? -Yeah.
441
00:25:14,592 --> 00:25:16,391
So these are
surface rendered images
442
00:25:16,392 --> 00:25:18,261
to allow you to see the skull.
443
00:25:18,262 --> 00:25:22,261
For the sake of comparison,
we have put similar images
444
00:25:22,262 --> 00:25:24,091
of a actual patient.
445
00:25:24,092 --> 00:25:25,431
- Okay.
- So you can obviously see
446
00:25:25,432 --> 00:25:27,301
the teeth, the orbits
447
00:25:27,302 --> 00:25:29,301
where the eyes would sit
and you can see
448
00:25:29,302 --> 00:25:31,091
that it's a very deformed skull.
449
00:25:31,092 --> 00:25:33,051
Do you find any
strange anomalies...
450
00:25:33,052 --> 00:25:34,971
Besides the shape, obviously?
451
00:25:34,972 --> 00:25:37,931
Well, there's a lot
that's interesting about this.
452
00:25:37,932 --> 00:25:40,931
There's a sagittal suture that
runs across the top of the skull
453
00:25:40,932 --> 00:25:43,011
that I'm not seeing
on this skull.
454
00:25:43,012 --> 00:25:48,011
It's fused, but what is
confounding to me is
455
00:25:48,012 --> 00:25:50,091
you can see the sutures
in the other areas.
456
00:25:50,092 --> 00:25:52,801
And the fusing of a suture,
457
00:25:52,802 --> 00:25:57,051
is that something where,
if we were to look closer,
458
00:25:57,052 --> 00:26:00,221
would we see a remnant
of that suture?
459
00:26:00,222 --> 00:26:03,221
We can look at it this way
on these images.
460
00:26:03,222 --> 00:26:05,551
So you can see right here,
there should be
461
00:26:05,552 --> 00:26:07,891
a sagittal suture right there
and we're not seeing it.
462
00:26:07,892 --> 00:26:10,091
There's a lot of distortion,
but I'll show you.
463
00:26:10,092 --> 00:26:12,351
This is what a suture elsewhere
would look like,
464
00:26:12,352 --> 00:26:14,891
so these are the sutures,
uh, elsewhere.
465
00:26:14,892 --> 00:26:19,511
Have you seen many skulls
that have missing sutures?
466
00:26:19,512 --> 00:26:21,722
I've never seen anything
like this skull.
467
00:26:24,512 --> 00:26:27,301
Ancient astronaut theorists
468
00:26:27,302 --> 00:26:31,391
point out that science often
has a difficult time with data...
469
00:26:31,392 --> 00:26:34,221
Such as the missing
sagittal sutures...
470
00:26:34,222 --> 00:26:37,391
That does not fit
into the accepted paradigm.
471
00:26:37,392 --> 00:26:39,351
And they suggest
472
00:26:39,352 --> 00:26:42,551
that findings that defy
conventional explanation
473
00:26:42,552 --> 00:26:47,222
often get set aside,
instead of being investigated.
474
00:26:50,182 --> 00:26:52,141
St. Catharines.
475
00:26:52,142 --> 00:26:53,052
Ontario, Canada.
476
00:26:53,053 --> 00:26:56,261
Spring 1970.
477
00:26:56,262 --> 00:26:59,681
Researchers at
the Earth Sciences Department
478
00:26:59,682 --> 00:27:01,301
at Brock University
479
00:27:01,302 --> 00:27:05,391
receive a sample of wood
that was found buried
480
00:27:05,392 --> 00:27:10,181
150 feet underground
on an island off Nova Scotia.
481
00:27:10,182 --> 00:27:13,141
After scientists run
carbon dating tests
482
00:27:13,142 --> 00:27:15,431
on the material,
483
00:27:15,432 --> 00:27:20,351
they place the object as being
from 3000 years in the future.
484
00:27:20,352 --> 00:27:24,351
Confounded, the team
runs the test again,
485
00:27:24,352 --> 00:27:27,261
only to get
the exact same results.
486
00:27:27,262 --> 00:27:30,431
Since it's an organic
piece of material,
487
00:27:30,432 --> 00:27:32,801
they were able to date it.
488
00:27:32,802 --> 00:27:35,851
But the dates that they received
489
00:27:35,852 --> 00:27:39,471
completely contradicted
everything, because
490
00:27:39,472 --> 00:27:42,891
it had a date of 3,000 years
into the future.
491
00:27:42,892 --> 00:27:44,552
Well, how is that possible?
492
00:27:46,802 --> 00:27:50,931
How is it that
modern dating techniques
493
00:27:50,932 --> 00:27:55,431
can produce results that are
so obviously contradictory?
494
00:27:55,432 --> 00:27:58,971
The basic idea behind
radiocarbon dating is that
495
00:27:58,972 --> 00:28:01,851
radioactive carbon
decays at a set rate,
496
00:28:01,852 --> 00:28:05,091
and you can use that
to date when various animals
497
00:28:05,092 --> 00:28:08,591
and life-forms died
and how long they've been dead.
498
00:28:08,592 --> 00:28:12,181
However, there are
known flaws in the science.
499
00:28:12,182 --> 00:28:13,761
Inorganic materials,
500
00:28:13,762 --> 00:28:17,221
like stone,
cannot be carbon-dated.
501
00:28:17,222 --> 00:28:19,721
And exposure to radioactivity
502
00:28:19,722 --> 00:28:22,801
can alter the dates
dramatically.
503
00:28:22,802 --> 00:28:26,431
The dating may abruptly increase
504
00:28:26,432 --> 00:28:28,641
because of nuclear weapons
going off.
505
00:28:28,642 --> 00:28:32,181
It's also changed
if a volcano erupts,
506
00:28:32,182 --> 00:28:34,221
it puts a lot of carbon dioxide
in the air.
507
00:28:34,222 --> 00:28:38,261
But scientists crave certainty,
like all human beings,
508
00:28:38,262 --> 00:28:39,761
certainty and predictability.
509
00:28:39,762 --> 00:28:41,972
So they tend to minimize
the caveats.
510
00:28:46,092 --> 00:28:49,221
But if the carbon
measurements can be skewed
511
00:28:49,222 --> 00:28:51,431
due to exposure to radiation,
512
00:28:51,432 --> 00:28:55,011
just how inaccurate
might the dating be?
513
00:28:55,012 --> 00:28:57,511
Perhaps answers can be found
514
00:28:57,512 --> 00:29:00,181
when the process
is put to yet another,
515
00:29:00,182 --> 00:29:03,512
even more confounding test.
516
00:29:04,714 --> 00:29:06,843
Irvine, California.
517
00:29:06,844 --> 00:29:09,463
April 2017.
518
00:29:09,464 --> 00:29:12,673
Ancient astronaut theorist
Giorgio Tsoukalos
519
00:29:12,674 --> 00:29:16,253
is visiting the Keck
Carbon Cycle Research Lab
521
00:29:16,254 --> 00:29:18,043
at the University of California
522
00:29:18,044 --> 00:29:20,673
to see firsthand how radiation
523
00:29:20,674 --> 00:29:24,253
can dramatically alter
the results of carbon dating.
524
00:29:24,254 --> 00:29:26,583
- Dr. Southon.
- Oh, hi.
525
00:29:26,584 --> 00:29:28,003
Giorgio. Pleasure to meet you.
526
00:29:28,004 --> 00:29:29,583
- How you doing?
- Pleasure to meet you.
527
00:29:29,584 --> 00:29:31,583
I'm here to learn about
carbon dating.
528
00:29:31,584 --> 00:29:32,883
Let me show you
how this thing works.
529
00:29:32,884 --> 00:29:34,173
- All right.
- Follow me.
530
00:29:34,174 --> 00:29:37,633
Dr. John Southon
531
00:29:37,634 --> 00:29:41,043
is using accelerator mass
spectrometry equipment
532
00:29:41,044 --> 00:29:43,043
to carbon date
a sample of redwood
533
00:29:43,044 --> 00:29:45,043
that was exposed to radiation
534
00:29:45,044 --> 00:29:49,543
during the testing
of atomic weapons in the 1950s.
535
00:29:49,544 --> 00:29:53,463
The process begins by
sterilizing the wood chip
536
00:29:53,464 --> 00:29:55,463
and then exposing it
537
00:29:55,464 --> 00:29:59,843
to various chemical processes
to remove any contamination.
538
00:29:59,844 --> 00:30:03,503
The material undergoes
a combustion process
539
00:30:03,504 --> 00:30:07,883
and is reduced to graphite
for optimal data retrieval.
540
00:30:07,884 --> 00:30:11,423
Finally, the graphite
is sent through
541
00:30:11,424 --> 00:30:13,633
an accelerated mass spectrometer
to measure
542
00:30:13,634 --> 00:30:15,423
the rate of radiocarbon decay
543
00:30:15,424 --> 00:30:18,923
and generate
the age of the object.
544
00:30:18,924 --> 00:30:20,463
Pull up a chair.
545
00:30:20,464 --> 00:30:22,044
All right.
546
00:30:24,716 --> 00:30:26,335
So what are we looking at here?
547
00:30:26,336 --> 00:30:29,545
Okay, so, this is
our result here.
548
00:30:29,546 --> 00:30:34,795
This is how much radiocarbon
was in the samples
550
00:30:34,796 --> 00:30:36,165
that we measured
from that redwood.
551
00:30:36,166 --> 00:30:37,505
Okay.
552
00:30:37,506 --> 00:30:40,125
And the thing
that's strange about them
553
00:30:40,126 --> 00:30:43,625
is that the radiocarbon age
is negative,
554
00:30:43,626 --> 00:30:46,955
which means,
at least at face value,
555
00:30:46,956 --> 00:30:49,415
these are from 600 years
in the future.
556
00:30:49,416 --> 00:30:51,835
Really? Okay.
557
00:30:51,836 --> 00:30:55,875
And the explanation for that
has to do with
558
00:30:55,876 --> 00:30:58,955
nuclear weapons testing
in the atmosphere
559
00:30:58,956 --> 00:31:02,005
in the 1950s and 1960s.
560
00:31:02,006 --> 00:31:03,715
This is amazing.
561
00:31:03,716 --> 00:31:06,125
In your estimation,
do you think that
562
00:31:06,126 --> 00:31:11,215
if an object is closer, let's
say, to a nuclear testing site,
563
00:31:11,216 --> 00:31:16,165
that an item like that would be
yielding more crazy results?
564
00:31:16,166 --> 00:31:18,455
If it was really close, yes.
565
00:31:18,456 --> 00:31:19,915
Okay.
566
00:31:19,916 --> 00:31:21,715
So it would give you dates that
567
00:31:21,716 --> 00:31:23,255
would be the equivalent of
568
00:31:23,256 --> 00:31:26,505
tens of thousands of years
in the future.
569
00:31:26,506 --> 00:31:29,755
Well, I think that's so
incredibly fascinating.
570
00:31:29,756 --> 00:31:33,215
If any object is exposed
571
00:31:33,216 --> 00:31:35,455
to some type of
a thermonuclear event,
572
00:31:35,456 --> 00:31:38,666
it changes the result
of the carbon dating.
573
00:31:40,256 --> 00:31:41,955
So I think that it's about time
574
00:31:41,956 --> 00:31:44,455
for us to look
at our ancient history,
575
00:31:44,456 --> 00:31:46,875
because what if
something similar
576
00:31:46,876 --> 00:31:48,545
happened in our past?
577
00:31:48,546 --> 00:31:51,545
Stories of ancient warfare
578
00:31:51,546 --> 00:31:54,665
involving the gods using
sophisticated weapons
579
00:31:54,666 --> 00:31:57,625
can be found in numerous texts.
580
00:31:57,626 --> 00:32:00,545
And ancient astronaut theorists
581
00:32:00,546 --> 00:32:04,125
have long proposed that these
stories are backed up
582
00:32:04,126 --> 00:32:09,125
by physical evidence that can be
found throughout the world.
583
00:32:09,126 --> 00:32:12,125
One curious site
that seems to indicate
584
00:32:12,126 --> 00:32:14,505
some kind of an atomic explosion
585
00:32:14,506 --> 00:32:18,875
is the very
southwestern corner of Egypt,
586
00:32:18,876 --> 00:32:21,585
right up along the border
of Libya.
587
00:32:21,586 --> 00:32:24,215
And that area is a sandy area,
588
00:32:24,216 --> 00:32:28,835
but it is covered with evidence
of vitrification.
589
00:32:28,836 --> 00:32:32,165
That's what happens when you
detonate an atomic bomb
590
00:32:32,166 --> 00:32:35,875
in a desert area, it turns
the desert into glass.
592
00:32:35,876 --> 00:32:38,665
And also at Mohenjo-Daro,
593
00:32:38,666 --> 00:32:40,875
which is on the border
of Pakistan and India,
594
00:32:40,876 --> 00:32:44,215
were these lumps of glass
595
00:32:44,216 --> 00:32:47,335
that had been molten and melted.
596
00:32:47,336 --> 00:32:49,835
And there were skeletons
that were also found
597
00:32:49,836 --> 00:32:52,755
that were radioactive.
598
00:32:52,756 --> 00:32:56,625
So the evidence shows that
there was some kind of
599
00:32:56,626 --> 00:33:00,836
atomic detonation or atomic war
in our ancient history.
600
00:33:02,916 --> 00:33:05,545
There are suggestions that
601
00:33:05,546 --> 00:33:09,665
there may have been some past
nuclear weapon's detonation.
602
00:33:09,666 --> 00:33:12,665
And if that occurred,
603
00:33:12,666 --> 00:33:18,295
then the carbon dating must
account for that possibility.
604
00:33:18,296 --> 00:33:21,255
And that would make, by the way,
everything look younger
605
00:33:21,256 --> 00:33:23,256
in carbon dating.
606
00:33:25,256 --> 00:33:27,335
The oldest dates
that can be measured
607
00:33:27,336 --> 00:33:32,715
by carbon dating go back
to only 70,000 years ago,
608
00:33:32,716 --> 00:33:34,795
a tiny fraction
of Earth's estimated
609
00:33:34,796 --> 00:33:37,715
six-billion-year history.
610
00:33:37,716 --> 00:33:41,415
Scientists have come to rely
on the fossil record
611
00:33:41,416 --> 00:33:45,626
to fill in the gaps, but that,
too, has its limitations.
612
00:33:52,376 --> 00:33:55,335
Myanmar, Southeast Asia.
613
00:33:55,336 --> 00:33:58,955
December 8, 2016.
614
00:33:58,956 --> 00:34:02,835
Paleontologists discover
a piece of amber
615
00:34:02,836 --> 00:34:06,045
containing the perfectly
preserved tail of a dinosaur
616
00:34:06,046 --> 00:34:08,875
believed by mainstream
scientists to be
617
00:34:08,876 --> 00:34:11,796
99 million years old.
618
00:34:14,796 --> 00:34:18,125
The specimen is shocking
as it reveals
619
00:34:18,126 --> 00:34:20,665
that not all dinosaurs were
covered in scales,
620
00:34:20,666 --> 00:34:23,335
as they had been depicted
for more than a century.
621
00:34:23,336 --> 00:34:26,456
Some actually had feathers.
622
00:34:28,336 --> 00:34:32,255
But how could archaeologists
have gotten it so wrong?
623
00:34:32,256 --> 00:34:34,085
One of the criticisms
624
00:34:34,086 --> 00:34:37,335
against the fossil record
are the gaps in the record.
625
00:34:37,336 --> 00:34:40,665
That is, we can see what we
think this animal looked like,
626
00:34:40,666 --> 00:34:43,085
you know, three million
years ago,
627
00:34:43,086 --> 00:34:44,585
and then we can see
what we think it looked like
628
00:34:44,586 --> 00:34:45,955
one million years ago,
629
00:34:45,956 --> 00:34:47,506
but what happened in between?
630
00:34:49,726 --> 00:34:53,225
Due to gaps
of up to 80 million years,
631
00:34:53,226 --> 00:34:56,855
the fossil record is
woefully incomplete,
632
00:34:56,856 --> 00:34:58,805
and the process of
becoming a fossil
633
00:34:58,806 --> 00:35:02,185
itself is extremely difficult.
634
00:35:02,186 --> 00:35:05,105
Vertebrate bones are
very difficult
635
00:35:05,106 --> 00:35:06,975
to turn into fossils.
636
00:35:06,976 --> 00:35:09,935
We are these wonderful
picnic lunches
637
00:35:09,936 --> 00:35:12,645
for a lot of different
creatures.
638
00:35:12,646 --> 00:35:16,975
Unless you fall into
a water-filled mud bath,
639
00:35:16,976 --> 00:35:21,765
or in the ocean, leaving your
bones almost anywhere
640
00:35:21,766 --> 00:35:26,395
is going to make sure it's never
turned into a fossil.
641
00:35:26,396 --> 00:35:28,855
There's life-forms that have
never, probably,
642
00:35:28,856 --> 00:35:30,685
ever been fossilized.
643
00:35:30,686 --> 00:35:33,355
This leaves room for all kinds
644
00:35:33,356 --> 00:35:36,065
of anomalous beings
to really exist.
645
00:35:36,066 --> 00:35:41,355
We may yet find fossils
of nine-foot giants,
647
00:35:41,356 --> 00:35:44,305
and even of extraterrestrials.
648
00:35:44,306 --> 00:35:47,395
While conventional
science remains resistant
649
00:35:47,396 --> 00:35:50,305
to the notion that
extraterrestrial
650
00:35:50,306 --> 00:35:53,265
or hybrid beings have ever
existed on the planet,
651
00:35:53,266 --> 00:35:56,145
ancient astronaut
theorists believe
652
00:35:56,146 --> 00:35:59,766
they may be very close to
uncovering definitive proof.
653
00:36:05,606 --> 00:36:08,265
Los Angeles, California.
654
00:36:08,266 --> 00:36:11,645
April 2017.
655
00:36:11,646 --> 00:36:16,065
After nearly two months,
the results from the DNA test
656
00:36:16,066 --> 00:36:19,645
that was performed on a 2,000-
year-old elongated skull
657
00:36:19,646 --> 00:36:23,565
from Paracas, Peru,
are finally in.
658
00:36:23,566 --> 00:36:27,065
To analyze the results,
Giorgio enlisted the help
659
00:36:27,066 --> 00:36:29,645
of Dr. Todd Disotell.
660
00:36:29,646 --> 00:36:32,436
All right, Todd,
you got the results?
661
00:36:34,396 --> 00:36:36,146
Yeah, and they're very,
very interesting.
662
00:36:43,049 --> 00:36:45,263
Los Angeles, California.
663
00:36:45,264 --> 00:36:48,798
April 2017.
664
00:36:48,799 --> 00:36:51,279
All right, Todd,
you got the results?
665
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,909
Yeah, and they're very,
very interesting.
666
00:36:53,910 --> 00:36:56,279
Giorgio Tsoukalos is online
667
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,239
with anthropologist
Dr. Todd Disotell
668
00:36:59,240 --> 00:37:01,699
to receive the results
of a DNA test
669
00:37:01,700 --> 00:37:05,119
that was performed
on an elongated skull.
670
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:09,699
They did get a good,
clean DNA profile
671
00:37:09,700 --> 00:37:12,739
from the maternally
inherited DNA.
672
00:37:12,740 --> 00:37:16,699
So this particular specimen
is actually not found
673
00:37:16,700 --> 00:37:18,199
in the New World,
674
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,539
not found amongst
Native Americans,
675
00:37:20,540 --> 00:37:25,199
and it's typically found amongst
Europeans and Middle Easterners.
676
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:29,119
In fact, the 100% match was
to a Scottish individual.
677
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:32,449
This makes no sense whatsoever.
678
00:37:32,450 --> 00:37:35,369
Really?
In a South American skull?
679
00:37:35,370 --> 00:37:36,989
This is all very strange.
680
00:37:36,990 --> 00:37:39,739
That could mean that
people from Europe
681
00:37:39,740 --> 00:37:46,279
got to South America, you
know, 1,500 years earlier
683
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:49,449
than we currently
understand that.
684
00:37:49,450 --> 00:37:51,279
That's amazing.
685
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,699
Unfortunately,
the condition of the sample
686
00:37:54,700 --> 00:37:57,659
did not yield any
"Y" chromosome.
687
00:37:57,660 --> 00:38:00,409
But that's not surprising.
688
00:38:00,410 --> 00:38:03,829
There is between
a couple hundred
689
00:38:03,830 --> 00:38:08,829
to a couple thousand times
as much maternal DNA
690
00:38:08,830 --> 00:38:10,539
in every cell of the body.
691
00:38:10,540 --> 00:38:13,119
So what does that mean?
692
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,659
What have we not found out
because of that?
693
00:38:15,660 --> 00:38:18,539
Well, so one, that would allow
us to definitively determine
694
00:38:18,540 --> 00:38:23,329
the sex, and knowing
who the father was
695
00:38:23,330 --> 00:38:26,159
would be very, very informative.
696
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,409
Unfortunately,
we're missing that.
697
00:38:28,410 --> 00:38:29,949
Right.
698
00:38:29,950 --> 00:38:34,239
Do you think that a case
can be made at all...
699
00:38:34,240 --> 00:38:37,119
And again, this is
complete speculation...
700
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,779
That perhaps it is not
necessarily human.
701
00:38:40,780 --> 00:38:43,199
Is that a possibility?
702
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:44,829
Well, it's possible.
703
00:38:44,830 --> 00:38:46,779
But still, we actually
don't know what this is.
704
00:38:46,780 --> 00:38:49,909
Since we didn't get
any definitive result,
705
00:38:49,910 --> 00:38:54,449
obviously, a scientist always
wants to try to do that.
706
00:38:54,450 --> 00:38:56,369
This is extraordinary.
707
00:38:56,370 --> 00:38:59,579
Yeah. It still leaves open
the possibility
708
00:38:59,580 --> 00:39:01,239
of something interesting.
709
00:39:01,240 --> 00:39:05,159
Right, so I think that
we have something here
710
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,539
that definitely merits
further investigation.
711
00:39:08,540 --> 00:39:11,869
It's worthy of study,
or opening up
712
00:39:11,870 --> 00:39:15,200
a new area of inquiry
and some new hypotheses.
713
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,659
The results confirmed the fact
714
00:39:20,660 --> 00:39:23,159
that there is a mystery there.
715
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,909
First of all, we couldn't figure
out who the father is
716
00:39:26,910 --> 00:39:28,699
of that thing.
717
00:39:28,700 --> 00:39:31,869
Number two, it has European DNA.
718
00:39:31,870 --> 00:39:34,579
Two things that make no sense.
719
00:39:34,580 --> 00:39:37,489
And it had a missing
sagittal suture.
720
00:39:37,490 --> 00:39:39,739
So I do think that
721
00:39:39,740 --> 00:39:41,660
that is
an extraterrestrial skull.
722
00:39:43,240 --> 00:39:45,579
Could preconceived notions
723
00:39:45,580 --> 00:39:49,159
concerning mankind's origins
be causing scientists
724
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,909
to overlook valuable data?
725
00:39:51,910 --> 00:39:55,079
Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes,
726
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:58,449
and suggest that
the scientific community
727
00:39:58,450 --> 00:40:01,659
has been too quick to find
answers when they should be
728
00:40:01,660 --> 00:40:04,240
asking more questions.
729
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,989
Science has built this house...
It's called the standard model...
730
00:40:09,990 --> 00:40:12,909
And, unfortunately, this house
has some big holes
731
00:40:12,910 --> 00:40:16,659
in its walls, and we hang
paintings over them, basically,
732
00:40:16,660 --> 00:40:20,659
and we try to kind of
paper those over.
733
00:40:20,660 --> 00:40:24,989
We want certainty,
we want everything to fit,
734
00:40:24,990 --> 00:40:28,199
but new knowledge
always changes things.
735
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:31,279
The model of thinking
in modern-day academia
736
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,449
is that artifacts
can't possibly exist
737
00:40:34,450 --> 00:40:37,409
outside of our
chronological timeline.
738
00:40:37,410 --> 00:40:39,779
They decide it's easier
to simply
739
00:40:39,780 --> 00:40:41,659
put the pieces in that fit,
740
00:40:41,660 --> 00:40:43,949
and remove the pieces
that don't.
741
00:40:43,950 --> 00:40:47,989
Scientists are far too quick
742
00:40:47,990 --> 00:40:50,369
to-to put a period
at the end of the sentence.
743
00:40:50,370 --> 00:40:55,039
They're looking at
a giant jigsaw puzzle
744
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,329
with only a few pieces
that are there.
745
00:40:57,330 --> 00:41:00,699
But they're drawing
huge conclusions
746
00:41:00,700 --> 00:41:03,489
without really seeing
all the evidence.
747
00:41:03,490 --> 00:41:05,449
And this is a problem
748
00:41:05,450 --> 00:41:09,869
in trying to reconstruct
our ancient history.
749
00:41:09,870 --> 00:41:13,779
Science is about
letting the evidence
750
00:41:13,780 --> 00:41:16,369
lead the investigation,
drawing conclusions
751
00:41:16,370 --> 00:41:18,579
based upon what you find.
752
00:41:18,580 --> 00:41:22,489
And the findings are undeniable:
we are not alone.
753
00:41:22,490 --> 00:41:24,869
Extraterrestrial,
human-like groups have been
754
00:41:24,870 --> 00:41:26,660
visiting us all along.
755
00:41:29,370 --> 00:41:32,119
Are we finally
entering a new age of science
756
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:36,779
where we will be forced to
rewrite our history books?
757
00:41:36,780 --> 00:41:40,949
Perhaps we are finally getting
close to finding the answers
758
00:41:40,950 --> 00:41:45,039
to the questions that mankind
has been asking for centuries.
759
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,989
Where did we come from?
760
00:41:47,990 --> 00:41:50,489
Why are we here?
761
00:41:50,490 --> 00:41:53,699
And are we alone
in the universe?
