But are these 5 00:00:28,482 --> 00:00:32,285 examples of modern technology, or is there evidence that these 6 00:00:32,352 --> 00:00:35,755 incredible achievements existed on earth thousands of years ago? 7 00:00:35,856 --> 00:00:39,191 You begin to have to ask yourself, are we missing part of 8 00:00:39,226 --> 00:00:39,859 the story? 9 00:00:39,893 --> 00:00:42,295 Could ancient man have possessed knowledge far 10 00:00:42,362 --> 00:00:44,764 beyond that of our own century? 11 00:00:44,865 --> 00:00:48,034 And if so, where did it come from? 12 00:00:48,068 --> 00:00:51,203 I think that people in ancient times were visited by 13 00:00:51,271 --> 00:00:55,641 beings coming not from this earth, and they gave us 14 00:00:55,676 --> 00:00:59,412 scientific technologies. 15 00:00:59,479 --> 00:01:02,782 It becomes all the more apparent that the possible 16 00:01:02,849 --> 00:01:06,786 answer of "Have aliens visited in the past?" could be a 17 00:01:06,853 --> 00:01:08,587 potential yes. 18 00:01:08,655 --> 00:01:11,390 Millions of people around the world believe we have 19 00:01:11,425 --> 00:01:16,062 been visited in the past by extraterrestrial beings. 20 00:01:16,096 --> 00:01:18,130 What if it were true? 21 00:01:18,165 --> 00:01:22,234 Did ancient aliens really help to shape our history? 22 00:01:22,302 --> 00:01:27,606 And if so, what if there were clues left behind, sometimes 23 00:01:27,674 --> 00:01:30,576 hiding in plain sight? 24 00:01:30,644 --> 00:01:34,213 What if we could find the evidence? 25 00:01:34,247 --> 00:01:37,817 ♪ ♪ 26 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:51,959 Sync by kuniva for addic7ed.com XOXO 27 00:02:07,347 --> 00:02:09,582 Saqqara, Egypt. 28 00:02:09,649 --> 00:02:13,853 Located roughly 20 miles south of Cairo, it is home to the 29 00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:18,858 world-famous step pyramid of King Djoser. 30 00:02:18,925 --> 00:02:22,862 Dating back more than 4,000 years, it is the oldest of 31 00:02:22,929 --> 00:02:25,664 Egypt's 97 pyramids. 32 00:02:27,634 --> 00:02:31,937 Saqqara is also famous for being one of Egypt's oldest burial 33 00:02:31,972 --> 00:02:37,710 grounds, earning it the nickname "City of the Dead." 34 00:02:37,778 --> 00:02:42,615 It was here, in 1891, that French archeologists unearthed 35 00:02:42,682 --> 00:02:47,386 an ancient tomb containing the burial remains of Pa-di-Imen, an 36 00:02:47,454 --> 00:02:51,323 official from the third century BC. 37 00:02:51,391 --> 00:02:54,927 Among the various items discovered was a small wooden 38 00:02:54,961 --> 00:02:59,398 model of what appeared to be a bird, lying beside a papyrus 39 00:02:59,466 --> 00:03:00,866 bearing the inscription: 40 00:03:00,934 --> 00:03:04,570 "I want to fly." 41 00:03:04,604 --> 00:03:08,641 The artifact was later sent to the Cairo Museum, where 42 00:03:08,675 --> 00:03:13,145 authorities placed it alongside several other bird figurines. 43 00:03:13,180 --> 00:03:18,150 The model sat largely unnoticed, until 1969, when 44 00:03:18,185 --> 00:03:21,954 Egyptologist Dr. Kahlil Messiha was examining the bird 45 00:03:22,022 --> 00:03:24,423 collection and noticed that there was something very 46 00:03:24,458 --> 00:03:27,226 different about the Saqqara bird. 47 00:03:27,227 --> 00:03:29,962 It's interesting because on one hand, 48 00:03:30,030 --> 00:03:34,133 clearly, it should look like a bird because it has eyes and has 49 00:03:34,167 --> 00:03:37,136 a typical nose of a bird. 50 00:03:37,170 --> 00:03:42,041 On the other hand, the wings are clearly not bird wings. 51 00:03:42,075 --> 00:03:45,044 To the middle of the rim, you see this 52 00:03:45,145 --> 00:03:47,880 wing a bit thicker. 53 00:03:47,981 --> 00:03:53,152 In this region, the liftp is the highest. 54 00:03:53,153 --> 00:03:58,491 The whole thing becomes thinner to the, um, end of the wings. 55 00:03:58,525 --> 00:04:02,661 And those wings, uh, model down. 56 00:04:02,696 --> 00:04:06,866 And this is a very modern aerodynamic design. 57 00:04:06,933 --> 00:04:09,668 Then the other point is, birds have no rudders. 58 00:04:09,736 --> 00:04:13,305 Because a bird does not need a rudder because of its 59 00:04:13,340 --> 00:04:14,874 aerodynamic architecture. 60 00:04:14,941 --> 00:04:20,679 And so, there is the idea they are not representing birds, but 61 00:04:20,747 --> 00:04:25,518 flying machines, or aircraft. 62 00:04:30,056 --> 00:04:32,224 Could the ancient Egyptians have possessed the 63 00:04:32,325 --> 00:04:34,393 power of flight? 64 00:04:34,427 --> 00:04:38,397 In 2006, aviation and aerodynamics expert Simon 65 00:04:38,431 --> 00:04:43,602 Sanderson built a scale model of the Saqqara bird five times 66 00:04:43,670 --> 00:04:49,942 larger than the original to test that possibility. 67 00:04:59,619 --> 00:05:02,154 We're running at a constant speed, 68 00:05:02,188 --> 00:05:05,457 slowly increasing the angle of attack, and then measuring the 69 00:05:05,492 --> 00:05:07,159 forces which it's producing. 70 00:05:07,193 --> 00:05:11,530 That way, we can learn about its flight characteristics. 71 00:05:11,564 --> 00:05:15,167 At ten degrees, we're producing four times weight and lift. 72 00:05:15,201 --> 00:05:17,202 So, it actually would be flying now. 73 00:05:17,270 --> 00:05:18,270 That's good. 74 00:05:18,338 --> 00:05:21,640 Test shows the Saqqara bird is a highly 75 00:05:21,674 --> 00:05:25,744 developed glider. 76 00:05:25,779 --> 00:05:29,648 And this is the design we used today. 77 00:05:29,749 --> 00:05:32,184 During the Sanderson test, it was 78 00:05:32,252 --> 00:05:35,387 discovered that the only thing preventing the Saqqara bird from 79 00:05:35,422 --> 00:05:39,024 achieving flight was the lack of a rear stabilizing rudder, or 80 00:05:39,092 --> 00:05:42,761 elevator, needed to maintain balance. 81 00:05:42,829 --> 00:05:46,732 Is it possible that the Saqqara bird ever possessed this 82 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,200 critical component? 83 00:05:48,268 --> 00:05:52,004 What is missing is something like an elevator, 84 00:05:52,105 --> 00:05:55,641 but if you look at this feature here, then we may interpret that 85 00:05:55,675 --> 00:06:01,313 something like an elevator was connected here, but was lost 86 00:06:01,381 --> 00:06:06,218 during history. 87 00:06:06,286 --> 00:06:09,221 Computer models seem to confirm that the Saqqara 88 00:06:09,289 --> 00:06:11,924 bird is certainly airworthy. 89 00:06:11,958 --> 00:06:17,229 But there is another problem to launching a glider. 90 00:06:17,297 --> 00:06:20,299 Modern methods require the use of a towplane that pulls the 91 00:06:20,366 --> 00:06:24,203 glider into the air, then releases it when a proper 92 00:06:24,304 --> 00:06:25,771 altitude is reached. 93 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,407 So, how might the ancient Egyptians have launched the 94 00:06:28,475 --> 00:06:29,508 Saqqara bird? 95 00:06:29,542 --> 00:06:33,679 The scientifics of Egyptology told us that such 96 00:06:33,746 --> 00:06:39,451 a bird could be powered off by catapults to fly. 97 00:06:39,486 --> 00:06:45,524 And, uh, we had high acceptance by Egyptian scientists. 98 00:06:45,558 --> 00:06:47,926 The idea of using a catapult does have a 99 00:06:47,994 --> 00:06:49,628 contemporary parallel. 100 00:06:49,662 --> 00:06:53,198 Many of today's glider enthusiasts employ a bungee cord 101 00:06:53,299 --> 00:06:58,370 system to launch their sail craft into the air. 102 00:06:58,404 --> 00:07:02,674 But if the Saqqara bird is capable of flight, where would 103 00:07:02,742 --> 00:07:05,944 ancient Egyptians have acquired such technology? 104 00:07:06,012 --> 00:07:09,381 I think that people in ancient times were visited by 105 00:07:09,482 --> 00:07:11,950 beings coming not from this earth, and they gave us 106 00:07:12,018 --> 00:07:15,954 culture and scientific technologies to improve 107 00:07:16,022 --> 00:07:23,095 our life on earth coming from the primitive to a higher 108 00:07:23,129 --> 00:07:24,863 developed culture. 109 00:07:24,898 --> 00:07:28,367 If ancient cultures would be able to produce any 110 00:07:28,401 --> 00:07:33,238 really flyable machine, they would be far more advanced than 111 00:07:33,306 --> 00:07:38,577 we believe today. 112 00:07:38,611 --> 00:07:46,151 It changes our viewpoint of ancient societies. 113 00:07:46,152 --> 00:07:49,054 It's a fact that our ancestors were more 114 00:07:49,088 --> 00:07:53,058 intelligent and had more technological superiority 115 00:07:53,092 --> 00:07:57,596 capabilities than our history books give them credit for. 116 00:07:57,630 --> 00:07:59,865 You begin to have to ask yourself, "Are we 117 00:07:59,933 --> 00:08:01,433 missing part of the story?" 118 00:08:01,467 --> 00:08:02,701 And honestly, I think we are. 119 00:08:02,769 --> 00:08:06,038 I think there has been a forgotten episode in human history. 120 00:08:06,072 --> 00:08:09,408 And, uh, we're a species with amnesia. 121 00:08:09,442 --> 00:08:12,311 We don't really remember who or what we are. 122 00:08:12,345 --> 00:08:16,281 I haven't been convinced that there is evence 123 00:08:16,316 --> 00:08:22,287 that support an ancient visitation, but there is 124 00:08:22,322 --> 00:08:26,291 no reason why not, and I think to shut oneself to that 125 00:08:26,326 --> 00:08:29,094 possibility is a mistake, mainly because there is so many 126 00:08:29,128 --> 00:08:32,598 anomalies that we can't explain. 127 00:08:34,601 --> 00:08:38,604 7,000 miles from Egypt, the dense jungles and 128 00:08:38,638 --> 00:08:42,040 rugged mountains of Colombia contain a vast number of 129 00:08:42,075 --> 00:08:46,745 archaeological signs. 130 00:08:46,779 --> 00:08:50,515 Many treasure hunters believed the legendary City of Gold, 131 00:08:50,583 --> 00:08:55,420 El Dorado, lies hidden here somewhere under a thick canopy 132 00:08:55,455 --> 00:08:58,390 of trees. 133 00:08:58,424 --> 00:09:02,327 While the mythical metropolis has never been found, early in 134 00:09:02,395 --> 00:09:06,064 the 20th century, tomb-robbers searching along the Magdalena 135 00:09:06,099 --> 00:09:11,136 River stumbled upon a gravesite dating back 1,500 years to a 136 00:09:11,237 --> 00:09:15,807 pre-Colombian civilization known as the Tolima. 137 00:09:15,875 --> 00:09:19,344 Among the funerary objects found there were hundreds of small 138 00:09:19,412 --> 00:09:22,080 two- to three-inch gold figurines. 139 00:09:22,081 --> 00:09:26,985 Many of those looked like insects and fish. 140 00:09:27,020 --> 00:09:31,356 However, out of those hundreds that they found, they also 141 00:09:31,424 --> 00:09:36,128 found about a dozen that are eerily reminiscent of modern-day 142 00:09:36,162 --> 00:09:40,966 fighter jets. 143 00:09:42,869 --> 00:09:45,637 They have a triangular shape. 144 00:09:45,672 --> 00:09:55,881 They have an upright tailfin, stabilizers... and a fuselage. 145 00:09:55,915 --> 00:10:05,357 And they have nothing in common with anything similar in nature. 146 00:10:05,458 --> 00:10:08,894 Could these gold objects really be proof that 147 00:10:08,928 --> 00:10:12,531 earth has been visited by ancient aliens? 148 00:10:12,632 --> 00:10:17,369 One of the objects shows a typical swept wings like 149 00:10:17,470 --> 00:10:19,504 with a modern aircraft. 150 00:10:19,505 --> 00:10:23,475 And you compare it to something like a space shuttle. 151 00:10:23,543 --> 00:10:29,915 You see that the basic wing shape is very similar to wing 152 00:10:29,982 --> 00:10:34,453 shapes for high-speed aerodynamic bodies like a space 153 00:10:34,487 --> 00:10:36,555 shuttle is. 154 00:10:36,556 --> 00:10:39,024 There is not a single insect in the world which 155 00:10:39,092 --> 00:10:40,992 has got its wings at the bottom. 156 00:10:41,027 --> 00:10:43,562 Now, when you exclude the possibility that it's an insect, 157 00:10:43,663 --> 00:10:46,565 one of the things which remain is the fact that this is 158 00:10:46,666 --> 00:10:50,736 actually, yes, what it looks like: a plane. 159 00:10:50,837 --> 00:10:55,440 In 1997, German aviation experts including 160 00:10:55,475 --> 00:10:59,444 Algund Eenboom and Peter Belting, set out to prove the 161 00:10:59,479 --> 00:11:03,181 speculation by building a scale-model replica of the gold 162 00:11:03,216 --> 00:11:08,587 flyer, fully equipped with landing gear and a working engine. 163 00:11:08,654 --> 00:11:12,457 It was rather simple because we don't need to put 164 00:11:12,492 --> 00:11:18,363 much parts to this shape because this shape is perfect. 165 00:11:18,364 --> 00:11:22,868 Everything was already done by the native people 2,000 years 166 00:11:22,902 --> 00:11:28,507 They did not add an inch or remove an inch. 167 00:11:28,574 --> 00:11:32,477 They just essentially blew the little thing into a larger size. 168 00:11:32,512 --> 00:11:38,517 I mean, this is sensational that pre-Colombian culture knew about 169 00:11:38,584 --> 00:11:41,787 aerodynamics. 170 00:11:41,821 --> 00:11:45,490 Once completed, the remote controlled flyer took off 171 00:11:45,525 --> 00:11:52,330 down a makeshift runway and flew. 172 00:11:52,398 --> 00:11:55,500 When you see this thing taking off, you really 173 00:11:55,568 --> 00:11:58,503 feel that this is the real deal. 174 00:11:58,571 --> 00:12:03,308 It was a very successful test and showed us 175 00:12:03,342 --> 00:12:10,515 how perfect ancient people were working out aerodynamic design. 176 00:12:10,583 --> 00:12:15,520 What it show you that there must be something happened. 177 00:12:15,588 --> 00:12:19,624 We are not quite sure how it did, but that it did. 178 00:12:19,659 --> 00:12:21,893 This is applied science. 179 00:12:21,961 --> 00:12:24,162 This isn't just thinking somewhere. 180 00:12:24,263 --> 00:12:27,065 This is people going out there and making sure and proving, 181 00:12:27,133 --> 00:12:30,769 what I still see, anybody can see this, that this is real. 182 00:12:30,803 --> 00:12:32,170 This is genuine. 183 00:12:32,205 --> 00:12:38,810 This little thing, which sits in a museum, could fly. 184 00:12:38,845 --> 00:12:42,547 So we have two examples from opposite sides of 185 00:12:42,615 --> 00:12:49,254 the planet, and both examples are aerodynamically sound and 186 00:12:49,322 --> 00:12:52,190 they fly. 187 00:12:52,258 --> 00:12:56,995 So, to suggest that all of this is coincidence... 188 00:12:57,029 --> 00:13:02,334 I mean, after a while, even coincidence no longer makes sense. 189 00:13:02,335 --> 00:13:05,804 Could the ancients have seen actual 190 00:13:05,838 --> 00:13:09,841 entities, like ancient gods, ancient astronauts actually 191 00:13:09,909 --> 00:13:14,179 flying around in what amounted to modern aircraft? 192 00:13:14,180 --> 00:13:17,549 The answer to these questions may be found in 193 00:13:17,650 --> 00:13:22,120 ancient documents that describe flight patterns, aircraft specs, 194 00:13:22,188 --> 00:13:27,726 and even aerial battles in remarkable detail. 195 00:13:31,009 --> 00:13:34,078 Over the past 50 years, NASA has sent astronauts 196 00:13:34,146 --> 00:13:36,814 into space inside large rockets. 197 00:13:36,882 --> 00:13:41,819 This method has been described by some as simply "putting a man 198 00:13:41,887 --> 00:13:48,359 on a large firecracker and lighting the fuse." 199 00:13:50,262 --> 00:13:54,732 Man's ability to travel farther into space would require more 200 00:13:54,799 --> 00:13:56,467 advanced propulsion systems. 201 00:13:56,535 --> 00:14:00,037 Several are being researched by NASA. 202 00:14:00,038 --> 00:14:03,474 There are a wide variety of advanced 203 00:14:03,542 --> 00:14:07,978 propulsion technologies that are being actively developed and 204 00:14:08,013 --> 00:14:11,815 studied by NASA and other researchers. 205 00:14:11,816 --> 00:14:16,020 A really exotic version of that is to use a launch-assist 206 00:14:16,054 --> 00:14:20,824 catapult, use technology derived from the magnetic 207 00:14:20,892 --> 00:14:24,728 levitation trains to build a maglev sled. 208 00:14:24,829 --> 00:14:29,366 It carries your rocket, gets it up to about Mach 1, and then 209 00:14:29,401 --> 00:14:32,469 launches the rocket from it. 210 00:14:32,537 --> 00:14:35,539 While these futuristic propulsion systems 211 00:14:35,574 --> 00:14:38,542 seem like something out of science fiction, ancient alien 212 00:14:38,577 --> 00:14:42,846 theorists believe past civilizations possess these same 213 00:14:42,914 --> 00:14:47,084 advanced technologies. 214 00:14:47,118 --> 00:14:50,921 They point to a number of cultural myths that describe sky 215 00:14:50,956 --> 00:14:54,758 people coming to Earth in fire-breathing dragons, or 216 00:14:54,859 --> 00:14:57,861 metallic-looking machines as proof of extraterrestrial 217 00:14:57,896 --> 00:14:59,597 visitation. 218 00:14:59,598 --> 00:15:02,866 In my mind, legends and myths are based on 219 00:15:02,934 --> 00:15:04,568 something real. 220 00:15:04,603 --> 00:15:09,240 And while they've been "mythified" and exaggerated in 221 00:15:09,307 --> 00:15:13,410 many cases, in my mind, some core of truth here in that 222 00:15:13,445 --> 00:15:18,482 people really were flying in airships in ancient times just 223 00:15:18,516 --> 00:15:20,384 like we do today. 224 00:15:20,385 --> 00:15:23,420 But might these ancient airships have reached 225 00:15:23,488 --> 00:15:27,791 Earth using the same type of propulsion systems we use today? 226 00:15:27,859 --> 00:15:33,430 The answer may be found deep in the Indian subcontinent. 227 00:15:33,498 --> 00:15:38,836 India-- over 1.1 billion people crowd its modern cities and 228 00:15:38,870 --> 00:15:43,073 rural townships, speaking hundreds of languages, and 229 00:15:43,141 --> 00:15:46,143 practicing a number of different religions. 230 00:15:46,244 --> 00:15:49,580 India is considered one of the oldest civilizations with 231 00:15:49,614 --> 00:15:53,684 settlements dating back over 11,000 years. 232 00:15:53,718 --> 00:15:56,954 It is also home to several of the oldest records of ancient 233 00:15:56,988 --> 00:15:59,423 technologies. 234 00:15:59,491 --> 00:16:03,961 Ancient Sanskrit text dating back as far as 6000 BC, 235 00:16:03,995 --> 00:16:08,332 describing varying but vivid detail flying machines called 236 00:16:08,433 --> 00:16:10,501 "vimanas." 237 00:16:10,535 --> 00:16:14,972 Vimanas are airplanes, and they are powered 238 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,042 by some jet engines. 239 00:16:18,043 --> 00:16:22,579 This seems to be true because all the description of the 240 00:16:22,647 --> 00:16:27,885 "elephants ran away in panic." 241 00:16:27,886 --> 00:16:34,591 Grass was thrown out because there was a lot of pressure from 242 00:16:34,659 --> 00:16:37,861 behind those vimanas. 243 00:16:37,929 --> 00:16:44,968 So that we can say this is a description of the spaceship. 244 00:16:49,007 --> 00:16:51,875 Although mainstream historians believe the vimana 245 00:16:51,943 --> 00:16:55,713 texts are myths, many of the documents contain passages that 246 00:16:55,780 --> 00:16:59,083 seem to describe modern machinery and technology. 247 00:16:59,150 --> 00:17:01,618 The Vymaanika-Shaastra goes into 248 00:17:01,686 --> 00:17:04,988 metals that are used in these craft. 249 00:17:05,023 --> 00:17:08,726 It talks about electricity and power sources. 250 00:17:08,727 --> 00:17:12,629 It talks about the pilots and the clothing they have to wear. 251 00:17:12,697 --> 00:17:15,966 It talks about the food that they eat. 252 00:17:15,967 --> 00:17:19,536 It talks even about the weapons that are kept on these airships. 253 00:17:19,571 --> 00:17:23,273 The flight menus of the vimanas are quite similar to 254 00:17:23,341 --> 00:17:27,544 the flight menus you find in the modern passenger flight 255 00:17:27,579 --> 00:17:28,712 business. 256 00:17:28,747 --> 00:17:33,517 Or when you go to the military jet engines, of course, they 257 00:17:33,551 --> 00:17:37,621 have also flight menus because it's necessary for a pilot to 258 00:17:37,689 --> 00:17:46,563 get knowledge about his plane he wanted to fly with. 259 00:17:46,564 --> 00:17:51,168 We also learned that these vimanas could 260 00:17:51,202 --> 00:17:54,605 be controlled mentally. 261 00:17:54,639 --> 00:18:00,110 And this is a technology that modern militaries are beginning 262 00:18:00,178 --> 00:18:02,379 to develop. 263 00:18:02,447 --> 00:18:05,015 Even today, with as advanced as we think we 264 00:18:05,049 --> 00:18:09,253 are, almost every manifestation of an actual extraterrestrial 265 00:18:09,287 --> 00:18:14,191 civilization today would look almost like magic to us where 266 00:18:14,225 --> 00:18:18,462 it has to do with technological electromagnetic systems that 267 00:18:18,530 --> 00:18:23,400 interface with coherent thought and organized thought. 268 00:18:23,401 --> 00:18:25,936 And this gets into people go, "Now, you're losing me here." 269 00:18:26,004 --> 00:18:28,372 But I tell people, I say, "Yeah, well, you gotta push your 270 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,674 boundaries a little bit if you're talking about a true 271 00:18:30,742 --> 00:18:32,576 "interstellar civilization." 272 00:18:32,610 --> 00:18:35,913 The Vymaanika-Shaastra, or Science 273 00:18:35,980 --> 00:18:40,050 of Aeronautics, indicates vimanas used a propulsion system 274 00:18:40,084 --> 00:18:44,922 based on a combination of gyroscopes, electricity, and mercury. 275 00:18:44,989 --> 00:18:47,624 Is this possible? 276 00:18:47,692 --> 00:18:50,461 Mercury is an unusual element. 277 00:18:50,528 --> 00:18:52,296 Mercury is metal. 278 00:18:52,297 --> 00:18:59,636 It's also a liquid, and, uh, is a conductor of electricity. 279 00:18:59,637 --> 00:19:02,940 You know, there's unusual things you can do with mercury. 280 00:19:03,007 --> 00:19:09,780 You can put it into a closed gyroscopic device with mercury 281 00:19:09,814 --> 00:19:13,617 spinning around, and then you get electrified. 282 00:19:13,685 --> 00:19:18,055 Studies have been done on this by NASA and by other scientists, 283 00:19:18,089 --> 00:19:21,525 and they find that you have levitation effects, antigravity 284 00:19:21,593 --> 00:19:26,697 kind of effects, and a spinning bright light is part of it, too. 285 00:19:26,731 --> 00:19:29,166 The Vymaanika-Shaastra suggests 286 00:19:29,234 --> 00:19:32,135 vimanas were powered by several gyroscopes placed inside a 287 00:19:32,170 --> 00:19:36,640 sealed liquid mercury vortex. 288 00:19:36,641 --> 00:19:39,776 Here's an example of a little kid's gyroscope. 289 00:19:39,811 --> 00:19:45,182 You spin it with a heavy wheel around a central axis. 290 00:19:45,183 --> 00:19:49,186 Well, a gyroscope seems to do a lot of strange things, even defy 291 00:19:49,254 --> 00:19:51,188 gravity. 292 00:19:51,256 --> 00:19:56,159 And it does this because it uses what's called rotational, or 293 00:19:56,194 --> 00:20:00,797 angular, momentum. 294 00:20:00,865 --> 00:20:04,601 And it wants to keep a particular orientation on its 295 00:20:04,636 --> 00:20:07,538 spin axis, the center rod. 296 00:20:07,605 --> 00:20:13,443 If you push on that rod, it will want to "righten" itself up to 297 00:20:13,511 --> 00:20:15,445 its original orientation. 298 00:20:15,513 --> 00:20:19,349 It wants to keep that same angular momentum. 299 00:20:19,417 --> 00:20:24,721 Gyroscopes are used all over in airplanes, in 300 00:20:24,756 --> 00:20:27,357 spacecraft, in submarines. 301 00:20:27,425 --> 00:20:30,727 This allows them to determine their position based on where 302 00:20:30,795 --> 00:20:31,728 they started. 303 00:20:31,796 --> 00:20:35,799 They can also use it for finding their velocity or even just the 304 00:20:35,833 --> 00:20:39,269 orientation of the vehicle in space. 305 00:20:39,304 --> 00:20:46,977 One of the texts talks about mercury rotating and driving 306 00:20:47,078 --> 00:20:51,982 some sort of a powerful wind, or a windmill effect. 307 00:20:52,083 --> 00:20:56,620 That might be some sort of what we call a "flywheel energy 308 00:20:56,654 --> 00:20:59,823 storage" where you have a spinning disc, and then you 309 00:20:59,924 --> 00:21:02,259 extract energy from it slowly. 310 00:21:02,293 --> 00:21:03,360 That would be the mercury. 311 00:21:03,428 --> 00:21:07,264 And then that could be used to drive some sort of a propeller 312 00:21:07,332 --> 00:21:11,802 or what we'd call a ducted fan sort of system like you have in 313 00:21:11,836 --> 00:21:16,640 a hovercraft. 314 00:21:16,674 --> 00:21:19,643 Mercury would be quite good for that because it's a high 315 00:21:19,677 --> 00:21:23,180 density, so you'd have a small package for your power plant, 316 00:21:23,247 --> 00:21:27,651 and that's always good when you're building an aircraft. 317 00:21:27,685 --> 00:21:31,355 Flywheel energy storage systems, however, tend 318 00:21:31,389 --> 00:21:32,823 to lose power quickly. 319 00:21:32,890 --> 00:21:37,894 To navigate across space, its size would have to be enormous. 320 00:21:37,929 --> 00:21:41,565 They're fine for use by power companies for 321 00:21:41,633 --> 00:21:42,833 load-leveling. 322 00:21:42,900 --> 00:21:45,035 You put energy in when you don't need it. 323 00:21:45,103 --> 00:21:47,371 You get energy out when you need it. 324 00:21:47,405 --> 00:21:49,840 But they're setting on the ground. 325 00:21:49,874 --> 00:21:53,110 To have something light enough to actually fly, it's not at all 326 00:21:53,177 --> 00:21:57,214 clear that this will be a practical device. 327 00:21:57,315 --> 00:22:02,119 Now, maybe the people are trying to describe something that kind 328 00:22:02,186 --> 00:22:04,321 of looked like this to them. 329 00:22:04,355 --> 00:22:06,390 It might not have actually been mercury. 330 00:22:06,424 --> 00:22:09,126 It might have been some other liquid metal. 331 00:22:09,127 --> 00:22:14,398 The mercury vortex engine is perhaps a failure in 332 00:22:14,499 --> 00:22:21,371 the translation because the vortex is not material quite 333 00:22:21,406 --> 00:22:25,876 suitable to a jet engine. 334 00:22:25,877 --> 00:22:30,547 The issue of how are these civilizations traveling 335 00:22:30,648 --> 00:22:34,418 faster than the speed of light is a fundamental question. 336 00:22:34,419 --> 00:22:38,088 It's a scientific application of things that have been studied 337 00:22:38,122 --> 00:22:40,657 for thousands of years and they're within the Vadas, the 338 00:22:40,725 --> 00:22:44,561 ancient Vedic teachings or other ancient teachings-- 339 00:22:44,595 --> 00:22:47,431 and it is there. 340 00:22:47,432 --> 00:22:51,368 But if vimanas existed, could this prove there 341 00:22:51,402 --> 00:22:54,871 was a worldwide transportation network thousands of years 342 00:22:54,906 --> 00:22:56,873 before Columbus? 343 00:22:56,908 --> 00:23:05,082 The answer might be found on a mountaintop outside Mexico City. 344 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,175 In the 21st century, modern transportation 345 00:23:09,242 --> 00:23:12,978 and communication methods have connected the world like never 346 00:23:13,046 --> 00:23:14,080 before. 347 00:23:14,114 --> 00:23:18,184 Products or ideas, no matter where in the world they may have 348 00:23:18,251 --> 00:23:22,421 originated, can spread to even the most remote countries. 349 00:23:22,456 --> 00:23:26,425 A hip-hop hit in Brooklyn might make it big in Tokyo before it's 350 00:23:26,460 --> 00:23:28,360 even heard in Manhattan. 351 00:23:28,428 --> 00:23:32,631 This cultural interconnection has transformed the globe, but 352 00:23:32,666 --> 00:23:36,836 is it new? 353 00:23:36,903 --> 00:23:40,739 Mainstream archaeologists believe ancient civilizations 354 00:23:40,774 --> 00:23:44,009 such as those found in the remote Pacific Islands, Asia, 355 00:23:44,077 --> 00:23:49,448 and South America developed independently from each other. 356 00:23:49,483 --> 00:23:53,819 But ancient astronaut theorists contend that similarities in 357 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,289 building styles and beliefs found in these cultures suggest 358 00:23:57,357 --> 00:24:01,293 that a worldwide trade route may have connected them to each 359 00:24:01,328 --> 00:24:05,731 other. 360 00:24:08,735 --> 00:24:12,037 But just like we have airports today around the 361 00:24:12,105 --> 00:24:17,543 world, in ancient times with the vimanas, there would have been 362 00:24:17,577 --> 00:24:22,548 hangars for the craft, airports for them to land. 363 00:24:22,549 --> 00:24:25,651 And those airports would have been situated in strategic 364 00:24:25,685 --> 00:24:27,019 places around the world. 365 00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:33,025 And that's exactly what we see in remote places. 366 00:24:33,126 --> 00:24:36,195 Could the complex set of lines covering Peru's 367 00:24:36,229 --> 00:24:40,199 Nazca plain or the mysterious plateau above Mexico's Oaxaca 368 00:24:40,233 --> 00:24:45,304 valley be evidence of runways for worldwide air transportation 369 00:24:45,372 --> 00:24:46,505 system. 370 00:24:46,573 --> 00:24:49,141 One of the unusual archaeological sites in Mexico 371 00:24:49,209 --> 00:24:52,044 is a place called Monte Albán. 372 00:24:52,145 --> 00:24:57,383 That is also a mountain where the top of the mountain was 373 00:24:57,417 --> 00:25:02,922 completely cut off and leveled to make a very flat tabletop 374 00:25:02,956 --> 00:25:04,790 mountain. 375 00:25:04,858 --> 00:25:13,766 And there's a megalithic city there, too, that's extremely old. 376 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:22,708 This was probably some kind of vimana airport. 377 00:25:24,744 --> 00:25:29,848 The vimanas could be kind of missing link between the 378 00:25:29,883 --> 00:25:34,119 single cultures in the world because they had just a very 379 00:25:34,120 --> 00:25:41,227 short time to flow from one part of the world to the other. 380 00:25:42,963 --> 00:25:46,098 Legends of air travel are also found in ancient 381 00:25:46,132 --> 00:25:48,400 Africa and the Middle East. 382 00:25:48,435 --> 00:25:52,404 According to The Kebra Nagast, a holy book of the Ethiopians 383 00:25:52,439 --> 00:25:57,142 written sometime between the fifth and second century BC, 384 00:25:57,210 --> 00:26:00,846 the queen of Sheba was once given a gift of a flying carpet 385 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,215 by King Solomon of Israel. 386 00:26:03,216 --> 00:26:06,385 The Kebra Nagast is one of the most important 387 00:26:06,419 --> 00:26:08,854 texts you've never heard of. 388 00:26:08,855 --> 00:26:13,492 The Kebra Nagast means The Book of Kings and it is 389 00:26:13,526 --> 00:26:19,431 the most sacred book of the Ethiopians. 390 00:26:19,499 --> 00:26:25,237 In it, King Solomon is described-- he had access to 391 00:26:25,272 --> 00:26:29,141 some type of a flying machine. 392 00:26:29,209 --> 00:26:33,779 And in that part of the world the term "flying carpet" was 393 00:26:33,813 --> 00:26:38,150 always used very liberally. 394 00:26:38,218 --> 00:26:44,256 My question is, did they really mean actual flying carpets or 395 00:26:44,291 --> 00:26:49,361 was it another term with which to describe some type of a 396 00:26:49,429 --> 00:26:51,630 flying machine? 397 00:26:51,698 --> 00:26:56,135 This w the original Chariots of the Gods 398 00:26:56,202 --> 00:27:01,206 that Erich von Daniken talked about-- the flying magic carpets 399 00:27:01,241 --> 00:27:04,376 of the Arabian Nights stories. 400 00:27:04,411 --> 00:27:08,947 There are traditions in the Middle East of King Solomon 401 00:27:09,049 --> 00:27:12,584 having this airship and flying to different places in the 402 00:27:12,652 --> 00:27:15,321 Middle East, certain mountains which are known as the Mountains 403 00:27:15,388 --> 00:27:18,524 of Solomon. 404 00:27:18,591 --> 00:27:23,929 These may have been certain airports or landing areas for 405 00:27:23,963 --> 00:27:26,765 these vimanas. 406 00:27:26,833 --> 00:27:31,103 Nicholas Rourke, famous Russian-American explorer who 407 00:27:31,204 --> 00:27:37,343 traveled all through central Asia and Tibet in the 1920s, he 408 00:27:37,377 --> 00:27:40,913 too claimed that Tibetans had traditions of King Solomon 409 00:27:40,947 --> 00:27:44,717 flying to Tibet in this aircraft. 410 00:27:44,784 --> 00:27:48,554 The Kebra Nagast also describes how King Solomon 411 00:27:48,588 --> 00:27:52,257 used his flying airship to make maps of the world. 412 00:27:52,292 --> 00:27:55,094 But could these have any relation to other 413 00:27:55,195 --> 00:27:58,097 ancient maps some believe may have been made by 414 00:27:58,198 --> 00:28:00,999 extraterrestrials? 415 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,103 Some of these maps show the world not as it looks 416 00:28:04,204 --> 00:28:07,272 today, but as it looked during the last ice age. 417 00:28:07,307 --> 00:28:11,343 And this is really hard to explai Everybody's heard of the Piri 418 00:28:11,378 --> 00:28:14,179 Reis map, but they've perhaps not heard of the Orontius 419 00:28:14,214 --> 00:28:18,684 Finnaeus map or-or theercator maps that show Antarctica in 420 00:28:18,752 --> 00:28:21,820 great detail hundreds of years before Antarctica was even 421 00:28:21,888 --> 00:28:24,089 discovered. 422 00:28:24,124 --> 00:28:26,725 One of the most referenced stories of ancient 423 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:31,663 aircraft is found in a surprising place: the Bible. 424 00:28:31,731 --> 00:28:35,300 In the Book of Ezekiel, the prophet describes a flying 425 00:28:35,335 --> 00:28:41,907 chariot containing wheels within wheels and powered by angels. 426 00:28:41,941 --> 00:28:45,477 Although Bible historians suggest Ezekiel was speaking 427 00:28:45,545 --> 00:28:48,313 symbolically about the terrifying enemies facing 428 00:28:48,381 --> 00:28:53,118 Israel, could this be another example of an alien visitation 429 00:28:53,153 --> 00:28:56,855 and proof that prehistoric aircraft existed? 430 00:28:56,923 --> 00:29:00,559 In the story of Ezekiel's throne chariot, this 431 00:29:00,593 --> 00:29:03,662 flying vehicle that doesn't seem to have any means of 432 00:29:03,730 --> 00:29:07,666 propulsion, if we thought of the word "angel" as representing 433 00:29:07,700 --> 00:29:12,304 something like celestial energy, it sounds much more like a 434 00:29:12,372 --> 00:29:15,240 spacecraft then because some of the angels are going back and 435 00:29:15,308 --> 00:29:16,141 forth. 436 00:29:16,142 --> 00:29:17,409 Well, that sounds like flames. 437 00:29:17,510 --> 00:29:20,112 That sounds like propulsion. 438 00:29:20,146 --> 00:29:21,213 Some of them are wheel-like. 439 00:29:21,247 --> 00:29:26,485 Well, those sound like flying saucers. 440 00:29:26,553 --> 00:29:30,189 Our ancestors weren't idiots. 441 00:29:30,256 --> 00:29:34,660 Ezekiel saw something that was so frightening to him that he 442 00:29:34,694 --> 00:29:36,662 fell to his knees. 443 00:29:36,696 --> 00:29:41,934 Then, out of the glory of God, came this being in these 444 00:29:42,001 --> 00:29:47,840 bright clothes that looked like metal, and told Ezekiel, "All 445 00:29:47,874 --> 00:29:49,908 right, man, we brought you here. 446 00:29:49,943 --> 00:29:54,213 "We want you to measure this monument, this building." 447 00:29:54,247 --> 00:29:57,683 And Ezekiel asks, "Well, why should I do this?" 448 00:29:57,750 --> 00:30:02,588 And the being says, "That's why we brought you here." 449 00:30:02,655 --> 00:30:06,592 And then you have 40 pages, in the second part of the Book of 450 00:30:06,626 --> 00:30:10,095 Ezekiel, with measurement after measurement after 451 00:30:10,163 --> 00:30:14,466 measurement of this gigantic building, in which, by the way, 452 00:30:14,534 --> 00:30:17,102 the glory of the Lord landed. 453 00:30:22,475 --> 00:30:26,612 In the early 1970s, NASA scientist Joseph 454 00:30:26,646 --> 00:30:30,115 Blumrich set out to disprove the theory that what Ezekiel 455 00:30:30,183 --> 00:30:33,118 witnessed was a spaceship. 456 00:30:33,186 --> 00:30:37,823 Joseph Blumrich is your proverbial rocket scientist. 457 00:30:37,891 --> 00:30:43,662 He worked on the moon project for NASA and, from the mind of a 458 00:30:43,730 --> 00:30:48,667 rocket engineer, started to look at what was written in the 459 00:30:48,735 --> 00:30:51,270 first part of the Book of Ezekiel. 460 00:30:51,304 --> 00:30:56,108 And after many months of research, Joseph Blumrich 461 00:30:56,209 --> 00:31:03,582 came to the conclusion that what Ezekiel described in his 462 00:31:03,650 --> 00:31:08,587 eyewitness report, it was indeed a type of spacecraft. 463 00:31:11,658 --> 00:31:14,293 Joseph Blumrich would go on to write The 464 00:31:14,327 --> 00:31:16,595 Spaceships of Ezekiel. 465 00:31:16,663 --> 00:31:21,133 Several years later, a German structural engineer named Hans 466 00:31:21,234 --> 00:31:24,603 Herbert Beier sketched out a blueprint of the second section 467 00:31:24,671 --> 00:31:28,473 of the Book of Ezekiel, where Ezekiel is told to construct an 468 00:31:28,508 --> 00:31:32,244 open-topped building to house the flying chariot. 469 00:31:32,278 --> 00:31:36,415 Ezekiel's spaceship fit exactly into the 470 00:31:36,482 --> 00:31:41,320 temple that Hans Herbert Beier recreated. 471 00:31:41,354 --> 00:31:45,290 So what we have here is a proof by indication. 472 00:31:45,325 --> 00:31:50,862 Here we have a NASA engineer and a structural engineer-- they 473 00:31:50,930 --> 00:31:54,800 didn't know of each other's work-- and both pieces fit 474 00:31:54,867 --> 00:31:56,768 together like a puzzle. 475 00:31:56,803 --> 00:32:03,375 In any court of law, that's evidence that would hold up. 476 00:32:03,376 --> 00:32:06,211 I think that scientists feel uncomfortable 477 00:32:06,245 --> 00:32:09,781 with the notion of the lost civilization precisely because 478 00:32:09,849 --> 00:32:12,784 the evidence for it is so ambiguous. 479 00:32:12,819 --> 00:32:15,420 It's not so in your face that it's immediately obvious. 480 00:32:15,488 --> 00:32:18,957 Uh, and, you know, the result is that science has not welcomed 481 00:32:18,992 --> 00:32:20,993 this idea. 482 00:32:21,027 --> 00:32:25,897 It'll take much more evidence before it's widely accepted. 483 00:32:25,965 --> 00:32:29,067 The god that I believe in doesn't need a 484 00:32:29,135 --> 00:32:34,239 vehicle in which to move around from point A to point B. 485 00:32:34,273 --> 00:32:39,411 Whatever was described in the Old Testament wasn't God, it 486 00:32:39,479 --> 00:32:44,483 was a misunderstood flesh-and- blood extraterrestrial whom 487 00:32:44,517 --> 00:32:50,889 our ancestor misinterpreted as being divine and supernatural. 488 00:32:50,957 --> 00:32:51,957 And why? 489 00:32:52,025 --> 00:32:55,027 Because of misunderstood technology. 490 00:32:55,061 --> 00:33:00,298 And that is the underlying thread that applies to all of 491 00:33:00,366 --> 00:33:03,835 the ancient astronaut theory. 492 00:33:03,936 --> 00:33:07,205 But while ancient texts provide tantalizing clues 493 00:33:07,273 --> 00:33:11,943 to our past, physical evidence paints an even clearer picture. 494 00:33:11,978 --> 00:33:16,214 But will modern science finally prove the ancient astronaut 495 00:33:16,282 --> 00:33:17,315 theory? 496 00:33:17,350 --> 00:33:20,585 Did the ancient civilizations of Earth have 497 00:33:20,653 --> 00:33:23,588 access to advanced technology? 498 00:33:23,589 --> 00:33:28,493 Well, it seems like they had something going on. 499 00:33:35,231 --> 00:33:37,499 In today's largest construction sites and 500 00:33:37,533 --> 00:33:42,604 quarries, huge mega-machines are used to dig, cut, and lift 501 00:33:42,638 --> 00:33:43,972 stone. 502 00:33:44,073 --> 00:33:48,243 These man-made creatures dwarf their creators and perform the 503 00:33:48,310 --> 00:33:53,715 work of thousands of men using modern hydraulic technologies. 504 00:33:53,782 --> 00:33:57,185 Without such equipment, builders could never construct 505 00:33:57,253 --> 00:34:00,622 modern skyscrapers. 506 00:34:00,656 --> 00:34:04,325 Yet, thousands of years ago, ancient civilizations were 507 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,995 accomplishing the same work while constructing their 508 00:34:07,029 --> 00:34:12,167 monuments and temples using massive stones. 509 00:34:12,268 --> 00:34:15,737 These enormous blocks-- many weighing in excess of 100 510 00:34:15,804 --> 00:34:20,608 tons-- would be a challenge even for today's engineers. 511 00:34:20,643 --> 00:34:24,279 Yet thousands of years ago, people cut them out of solid 512 00:34:24,346 --> 00:34:28,183 rock, transported them for miles and then lifted them 513 00:34:28,284 --> 00:34:30,385 precisely into place. 514 00:34:30,452 --> 00:34:34,189 But how? 515 00:34:34,290 --> 00:34:37,559 Did they cut these massive stone blocks with hammers, 516 00:34:37,626 --> 00:34:42,664 chisels, and copper wire, as mainstream archeologists suggest? 517 00:34:42,698 --> 00:34:45,300 Could they have lifted and transported them without a 518 00:34:45,367 --> 00:34:47,936 pulley system or the wheel? 519 00:34:48,003 --> 00:34:52,006 Or did ancient civilizations possess advanced technologies 520 00:34:52,041 --> 00:34:55,443 that have since been lost to sciee? 521 00:35:01,083 --> 00:35:03,985 At Giza, you just don't have the pyramids. 522 00:35:04,053 --> 00:35:06,788 Linked to the pyramids are what Egyptologists call valley 523 00:35:06,822 --> 00:35:07,822 temples. 524 00:35:07,823 --> 00:35:10,625 It doesn't take a rocket engineer that when you go 525 00:35:10,659 --> 00:35:14,529 there, there's something not quite right here. 526 00:35:14,630 --> 00:35:18,633 Whereas the pyramids are built with blocks of two to three 527 00:35:18,667 --> 00:35:22,270 tons, these temples, which are minute compared to the 528 00:35:22,338 --> 00:35:26,074 pyramids, are built with blocks of 100 tons and some of them 529 00:35:26,108 --> 00:35:28,276 200 tons. 530 00:35:28,344 --> 00:35:30,645 Let me tell you what a 100-ton block is. 531 00:35:30,713 --> 00:35:33,248 If you take a 100 family cars and you squeeze them together 532 00:35:33,282 --> 00:35:35,016 you get one of these blocks. 533 00:35:35,050 --> 00:35:38,386 First of all, let alone how they move these blocks is why 534 00:35:38,454 --> 00:35:41,289 would they want to use 100-ton blocks? 535 00:35:41,357 --> 00:35:44,826 It simply doesn't make sense. 536 00:35:44,893 --> 00:35:47,662 There's no reason for them to want to 537 00:35:47,730 --> 00:35:52,734 build out of granite blocks the size of a semi truck. 538 00:35:52,835 --> 00:35:55,903 It's like, "Okay, let's do something, but let's do it as 539 00:35:55,938 --> 00:35:58,840 difficult as we could possibly do it." 540 00:35:58,874 --> 00:36:03,311 The reason why I am convinced that sophisticated 541 00:36:03,379 --> 00:36:08,483 technology was utilized in these ancient rocks is because, 542 00:36:08,550 --> 00:36:14,088 if we go to a stone quarry today d look at the scope of 543 00:36:14,156 --> 00:36:19,260 machinery required to accomplish similar things, 544 00:36:19,328 --> 00:36:21,696 those machines are huge. 545 00:36:25,334 --> 00:36:28,102 Subscribers to ancient alien theory do not 546 00:36:28,170 --> 00:36:32,006 believe extraterrestrials built these amazing monuments, but 547 00:36:32,074 --> 00:36:36,077 instead provided some type of technological know-how or tools 548 00:36:36,111 --> 00:36:39,280 to our ancestors. 549 00:36:39,348 --> 00:36:42,917 Engineering expert Chris Dunn has spent several decades 550 00:36:43,018 --> 00:36:45,920 researching the construction tools used by the ancient 551 00:36:45,954 --> 00:36:47,288 Egyptians. 552 00:36:47,356 --> 00:36:51,292 We're normally taught by Egyptologists, that the 553 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,562 ancient Egyptians had simple tools. 554 00:36:54,563 --> 00:36:58,800 They went to work every day using stone balls, copper 555 00:36:58,834 --> 00:37:04,572 chisels or copper tube and sand to grind holes in diorite and 556 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,674 granite, extremely hard rock. 557 00:37:06,742 --> 00:37:10,445 And what I have actually gathered over the years is 558 00:37:10,479 --> 00:37:14,015 information that seems to actually argue against that 559 00:37:14,083 --> 00:37:19,287 notion that they had simple tools. 560 00:37:19,388 --> 00:37:23,024 In Egypt, Dunn was able to examine ancient 561 00:37:23,092 --> 00:37:26,294 sites firsthand. 562 00:37:26,395 --> 00:37:29,397 What he found has proved to be both revolutionary and 563 00:37:29,465 --> 00:37:31,833 controversial. 564 00:37:31,867 --> 00:37:35,503 If you look at the Giza Plateau and all the stones that 565 00:37:35,571 --> 00:37:39,941 they actually placed in the Great Pyramid and the Khafre 566 00:37:39,975 --> 00:37:43,578 Pyramid and Menkaura's Pyramid, two and a half million blocks of 567 00:37:43,645 --> 00:37:46,114 stone in the Great Pyramid alone. 568 00:37:46,148 --> 00:37:49,016 They had to have had some efficient means of cutting them 569 00:37:49,051 --> 00:37:51,319 to size and putting them into place. 570 00:37:51,420 --> 00:37:54,122 They had to have had somebody on site who is saying, "Okay, I 571 00:37:54,156 --> 00:37:58,593 need a block this size," and then getting a block to them 572 00:37:58,660 --> 00:38:03,965 that size stat, like immediately. 573 00:38:05,033 --> 00:38:08,202 While searching several miles north of Giza, at 574 00:38:08,237 --> 00:38:12,673 Abu Rawash, Dunn stumbled upon a clue when he spotted a granite 575 00:38:12,708 --> 00:38:16,677 block containing a deep cut. 576 00:38:16,779 --> 00:38:20,348 When I first saw it, I just didn't know what to make of 577 00:38:20,416 --> 00:38:21,482 it. 578 00:38:21,517 --> 00:38:25,153 And it was only after puzzling over it for days, and sometimes 579 00:38:25,220 --> 00:38:28,990 waking up at 3:00 in the morning scratching my head and 580 00:38:29,024 --> 00:38:31,959 thinming, well, how did they make this cut? 581 00:38:31,994 --> 00:38:35,897 And finally, to realize that the only way that they could have 582 00:38:35,964 --> 00:38:39,700 actually cut that thing was with a saw that was 35 feet in 583 00:38:39,735 --> 00:38:42,136 diameter. 584 00:38:44,072 --> 00:38:47,141 The idea that ancient Egyptians used giant 585 00:38:47,176 --> 00:38:51,412 saws provoked much resistance from mainstream archeologists. 586 00:38:51,447 --> 00:38:53,881 Dunn however, was convinced. 587 00:38:53,982 --> 00:38:57,151 As an ex-machinist I look for tool marks. 588 00:38:57,186 --> 00:38:58,986 I look for them everywhere I go. 589 00:38:59,054 --> 00:39:01,989 And I could be accused of, well, you know, if you're going to 590 00:39:02,024 --> 00:39:04,091 look for something, you're probably going to find it 591 00:39:04,159 --> 00:39:06,661 because you'reooking at it through a certain filter. 592 00:39:06,695 --> 00:39:08,563 Accepted, I agree. 593 00:39:08,597 --> 00:39:13,701 But the question is, why is it there? 594 00:39:13,769 --> 00:39:16,137 Clearly, to me, that is a machine mark. 595 00:39:16,205 --> 00:39:18,372 But there were no machines back then. 596 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,141 So what do I do? 597 00:39:20,209 --> 00:39:22,410 I just go looking for more machine marks. 598 00:39:22,478 --> 00:39:25,513 And they're all over the place. 599 00:39:25,547 --> 00:39:27,482 You find them on statues. 600 00:39:27,516 --> 00:39:30,718 You find them particularly in the Luxor Museum. 601 00:39:30,786 --> 00:39:36,157 There's seems to be an impression on the side of Amon's 602 00:39:36,225 --> 00:39:40,895 buttock where it meets the bench, where there is an undercut. 603 00:39:40,929 --> 00:39:42,530 It was the slip of a tool. 604 00:39:42,564 --> 00:39:47,435 And therefore, it must have been a tool that was quite efficient. 605 00:39:47,503 --> 00:39:50,905 Dunn also believes that the large depressions in 606 00:39:50,939 --> 00:39:54,675 the ground at Giza are not boat pits as is claimed by mainstream 607 00:39:54,710 --> 00:40:00,448 archeologists, but were actually used to hold the 35-foot saws. 608 00:40:00,516 --> 00:40:04,252 I speculate that they were actually saw pits. 609 00:40:04,353 --> 00:40:08,623 The saws were mounted in these pits, and that they ran the 610 00:40:08,690 --> 00:40:11,259 blocks through the saw before they put them in the Great 611 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:12,727 Pyramid. 612 00:40:12,761 --> 00:40:16,464 Another mystery involves how mega-stones were 613 00:40:16,532 --> 00:40:20,301 lifted up and placed into a precise position. 614 00:40:20,302 --> 00:40:23,838 What you find in modern construction is that to 615 00:40:23,906 --> 00:40:26,741 build big buildings, you need to build big instruments which help 616 00:40:26,808 --> 00:40:29,176 build these big buildings. 617 00:40:29,177 --> 00:40:32,914 And that is something which archeology has never addressed. 618 00:40:32,948 --> 00:40:35,917 The three largest man-made stones in the world are 619 00:40:35,951 --> 00:40:40,087 found at the Temple of Jupiter at Baalbek in Lebanon. 620 00:40:40,122 --> 00:40:45,560 Each weighs an estimated 1,000 tons-- or two million pounds. 621 00:40:45,594 --> 00:40:50,097 A nearby quarry contains an even bigger stone, known as the Stone 622 00:40:50,132 --> 00:40:52,667 of the Pregnant Woman. 623 00:40:52,734 --> 00:40:58,472 This giant rectangular block weighs an incredible 1,200 tons. 624 00:40:58,574 --> 00:41:03,077 To move it today would take the strength of 21 heavy-lift 625 00:41:03,111 --> 00:41:05,479 cranes. 626 00:41:07,616 --> 00:41:10,818 Being in the construction industry, if a 627 00:41:10,852 --> 00:41:14,355 certain project is being constructed somewhere, 628 00:41:14,389 --> 00:41:19,594 particularly in mountainous areas, how would we carry this 629 00:41:19,661 --> 00:41:23,998 machinery, these cranes, and all that? 630 00:41:24,032 --> 00:41:26,934 They are so heavy that it's virtually impossible to take 631 00:41:26,969 --> 00:41:28,936 them to the site. 632 00:41:28,971 --> 00:41:34,275 This stone came off a project in Palm 633 00:41:34,309 --> 00:41:38,846 Springs, where they had one of the largest excavators they 634 00:41:38,947 --> 00:41:40,548 could rent. 635 00:41:40,582 --> 00:41:43,784 They had trouble loading it into the truck. 636 00:41:43,819 --> 00:41:48,656 It's well in excess of five tons-- 10,000 pounds-- 637 00:41:48,690 --> 00:41:54,328 small in megalithic terms, but basically what we can handle 638 00:41:54,363 --> 00:41:56,831 with modern machinery. 639 00:41:56,865 --> 00:42:00,701 We're supposed to accept that the people who built 640 00:42:00,736 --> 00:42:06,040 the pyramids did not have the wheel, did not have the pulley, 641 00:42:06,141 --> 00:42:07,575 did not have iron. 642 00:42:07,609 --> 00:42:12,413 In fact, they had nothing but brutal manpower and pieces 643 00:42:12,481 --> 00:42:14,148 of strings. 644 00:42:14,216 --> 00:42:17,985 The complex does not fit the evidence. 645 00:42:18,020 --> 00:42:22,156 I've done pulling operations in upper Egypt. 646 00:42:22,190 --> 00:42:25,760 Thousands of people involved in the various stages of the 647 00:42:25,794 --> 00:42:30,598 project, moving very fragile pieces of stone that weigh 648 00:42:30,632 --> 00:42:34,168 hundreds, if not thousands, of tons. 649 00:42:34,202 --> 00:42:38,606 Yes, you can use ropes, but you're going to have to use 650 00:42:38,674 --> 00:42:43,344 other mechanical advantages. 651 00:42:43,378 --> 00:42:46,614 But if ancient civilizations did not possess 652 00:42:46,682 --> 00:42:51,052 modern mechanical equipment, how did they move and lift mega-ton 653 00:42:51,086 --> 00:42:52,787 stones? 654 00:42:52,821 --> 00:42:55,890 Some believe they were given a technical advantage from 655 00:42:55,957 --> 00:42:58,192 extraterrestrial visitors. 656 00:42:58,260 --> 00:43:01,629 You've got to ask yourself, why would they try and 657 00:43:01,697 --> 00:43:05,833 do something that seems so incredibly difficult? 658 00:43:05,901 --> 00:43:11,639 The answer to why they would do that has to be that it somehow 659 00:43:11,707 --> 00:43:14,108 wasn't so difficult for them. 660 00:43:14,176 --> 00:43:17,178 It was easy. 661 00:43:17,245 --> 00:43:23,984 There exists one very concise description of how 662 00:43:24,019 --> 00:43:29,824 these massive stones were transported from the quarry to 663 00:43:29,891 --> 00:43:31,792 the building site. 664 00:43:31,827 --> 00:43:36,430 The master builders had the capability of putting some type 665 00:43:36,465 --> 00:43:40,634 of a white substance-- paper-like substance onto the 666 00:43:40,736 --> 00:43:46,107 stones and they rode on it, and then they basically gave the 667 00:43:46,141 --> 00:43:52,279 stone block a push and it moved by six feet as if by magic. 668 00:43:52,314 --> 00:43:56,484 Now did that thing really move by magic? 669 00:43:56,518 --> 00:44:00,855 No, some technology was used. 670 00:44:00,922 --> 00:44:04,024 That is part of the solution. 671 00:44:04,092 --> 00:44:07,828 In order to really move massive amounts of stone like that, they 672 00:44:07,863 --> 00:44:12,500 would have had to have been levitated-- somehow made 673 00:44:12,567 --> 00:44:15,669 weightless-- and then just moved through the air by some kind of 674 00:44:15,771 --> 00:44:21,008 device, perhaps even a handheld kind of device, like some beam 675 00:44:21,042 --> 00:44:23,310 weapon. 676 00:44:26,782 --> 00:44:30,050 Ancient man's method of moving large blocks 677 00:44:30,118 --> 00:44:31,952 is only one mystery. 678 00:44:31,987 --> 00:44:36,123 Another surrounds the techniques of their stonemasons. 679 00:44:36,158 --> 00:44:38,959 How did prehistoric civilizations cut such 680 00:44:39,027 --> 00:44:43,697 intricately designed patterns in solid granite? 681 00:44:54,353 --> 00:44:57,288 Palm Springs, California. 682 00:44:57,356 --> 00:45:01,993 Master stonemason and sculptor Roger Hopkins uses a variety of 683 00:45:02,027 --> 00:45:07,465 advanced tools to cut and shape hard stones. 684 00:45:07,533 --> 00:45:11,636 Powered implements such as diamon$-tipped wires and 685 00:45:11,704 --> 00:45:15,974 polishers enable him to fashion works of art out of huge granite 686 00:45:16,008 --> 00:45:19,878 blocks obtained from nearby quarries. 687 00:45:22,281 --> 00:45:26,384 Yet even with these high-tech tools, Hopkins cannot replicate 688 00:45:26,418 --> 00:45:34,259 what ancient civilizations accomplished thousands of years ago. 689 00:45:34,293 --> 00:45:37,929 Could these advanced engineering methods be the smoking gun that 690 00:45:37,997 --> 00:45:42,567 proves humans had help from alien beings? 691 00:45:42,601 --> 00:45:47,005 The precision on some of the work that I've seen 692 00:45:47,039 --> 00:45:49,574 is just incredible. 693 00:45:49,575 --> 00:45:53,912 It's possible to do by hand, but it would take an incredible 694 00:45:54,013 --> 00:45:56,281 amount of time. 695 00:45:56,348 --> 00:46:00,451 Plus, you have to have years of experience to be able to pull it 696 00:46:00,486 --> 00:46:02,287 off. 697 00:46:02,354 --> 00:46:05,023 In my opinion, the most tangible pieces of evidence 698 00:46:05,090 --> 00:46:09,928 that we have regarding possible extraterrestrial technology is 699 00:46:10,029 --> 00:46:16,367 when we look at the ancient stone-cutting techniques. 700 00:46:16,368 --> 00:46:21,673 Because in some instances, we ourselves today could not 701 00:46:21,740 --> 00:46:26,311 replicate what our ancestors allegedly accomplished with 702 00:46:26,378 --> 00:46:28,746 stonemasonry. 703 00:46:35,221 --> 00:46:39,324 Puma Punku is a large temple complex located on 704 00:46:39,391 --> 00:46:41,693 a high plateau in Bolivia. 705 00:46:46,398 --> 00:46:50,401 Mainstream archeologists date the site from approximately 706 00:46:50,436 --> 00:46:53,404 200 BC. 707 00:46:53,472 --> 00:46:56,608 The people who lived here had neither a written language nor 708 00:46:56,642 --> 00:47:00,311 the wheel, yet somehow they built one of the world's most 709 00:47:00,412 --> 00:47:02,614 complex structures. 710 00:47:05,985 --> 00:47:09,754 Ancient alien theorists view Puma Punku as clear proof of 711 00:47:09,788 --> 00:47:12,423 extraterrestrial influence. 712 00:47:12,458 --> 00:47:18,429 The ruins we find at Puma Punku are simply 713 00:47:18,497 --> 00:47:20,798 extraordinary. 714 00:47:20,866 --> 00:47:23,701 Puma Punku defies logic. 715 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:32,176 The interest of Puma Punku is not so much that the 716 00:47:32,211 --> 00:47:35,146 individual stones sorted together perfectly, but the fact 717 00:47:35,180 --> 00:47:39,183 that the stones, as such, are of such tremendous design that it 718 00:47:39,251 --> 00:47:43,087 requires concepts of mathematics which are far beyond anything we 719 00:47:43,155 --> 00:47:45,623 are actually using right now. 720 00:47:45,624 --> 00:47:48,359 Yet somehow in the past, somebody has made that for a 721 00:47:48,460 --> 00:47:52,363 specific purpose, and in a way which even computer programs 722 00:47:52,431 --> 00:47:56,234 today would kind of go, how is this possible? 723 00:48:03,142 --> 00:48:07,512 In the highlands of Bolivia, Puma Punku-- some of 724 00:48:07,546 --> 00:48:12,817 these blocks are over 40 to 50 tons each. 725 00:48:12,885 --> 00:48:14,919 What can you tell us about this? 726 00:48:14,987 --> 00:48:20,425 Boy, they had their stone-cutting abilities pretty 727 00:48:20,459 --> 00:48:23,895 well fine-tuned for 5,000 years old. 728 00:48:23,929 --> 00:48:27,465 I mean, it's almost unbelievable. 729 00:48:27,533 --> 00:48:30,735 But the cutting planes that they have on here are very 730 00:48:30,836 --> 00:48:32,570 impressive. 731 00:48:32,638 --> 00:48:38,643 And some of the inside cuts-- see, like in here, all these 732 00:48:38,711 --> 00:48:41,546 interior cuts-- very hard to do. 733 00:48:41,580 --> 00:48:44,649 I mean, it would be difficult for us with our equipment to get 734 00:48:44,717 --> 00:48:47,085 that kind of precision. 735 00:48:50,556 --> 00:48:54,025 Let's talk a little bit about inside boxes. 736 00:48:54,093 --> 00:48:56,861 Ew, I was afraid you were going to pull something 737 00:48:56,929 --> 00:48:58,096 like this on me. 738 00:48:58,130 --> 00:49:01,899 That is a hell of a piece of work. 739 00:49:01,934 --> 00:49:05,470 I mean, if we were to do something like that today, we'd 740 00:49:05,504 --> 00:49:10,208 use-- what they have, these computer-driven CNC machines 741 00:49:10,242 --> 00:49:13,044 which have diamond tips. 742 00:49:13,078 --> 00:49:17,115 And you have a template that, you know, the computer follows. 743 00:49:17,149 --> 00:49:21,285 Even then, it may not come out as perfect. 744 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,654 Because even though you can tell that 745 00:49:23,689 --> 00:49:26,491 obviously this piece broke off... Mm-hmm. 746 00:49:26,558 --> 00:49:29,060 Nowhere in here can you see any imperfection. 747 00:49:29,128 --> 00:49:32,330 It's like... And by the way, when you're there, if you go 748 00:49:32,398 --> 00:49:35,867 with your finger over these edges, and you put a little 749 00:49:35,934 --> 00:49:38,970 pressure on your fingertip, you can cut yourself. 750 00:49:39,038 --> 00:49:41,506 This is how sharp the edges are. 751 00:49:46,045 --> 00:49:48,980 But where could the ancient peoples have developed 752 00:49:49,048 --> 00:49:51,249 such technology? 753 00:49:51,316 --> 00:49:54,619 Is it really possible that extraterrestrial visitors 754 00:49:54,686 --> 00:49:58,623 provided different construction methods and tools? 755 00:49:58,624 --> 00:50:01,793 When I saw these blocks, I didn't really 756 00:50:01,827 --> 00:50:05,196 think that they were cut. 757 00:50:05,197 --> 00:50:09,133 The first thing really that I thought of was this appears very 758 00:50:09,168 --> 00:50:13,137 similar to Frank Lloyd Wright's textile block system of 759 00:50:13,172 --> 00:50:17,341 construction, which he used in his California houses in the 760 00:50:17,443 --> 00:50:20,144 early 1920s. 761 00:50:20,179 --> 00:50:27,351 Now what he did was-- he took concrete, poured it into molds. 762 00:50:27,386 --> 00:50:32,523 There actually are ancient Incan legends that 763 00:50:32,624 --> 00:50:39,730 suggest that they had the capability of softening the stone. 764 00:50:39,798 --> 00:50:44,368 At Sacsayhuaman, for example, we find these gigantic stone 765 00:50:44,403 --> 00:50:48,806 blocks, gigantic stone walls, where it looks as if those 766 00:50:48,841 --> 00:50:54,545 stones were molten, put into place, and then the stone 767 00:50:54,646 --> 00:50:56,881 hardened again. 768 00:51:01,887 --> 00:51:05,356 Several hundred miles north of Puma Punku, 769 00:51:05,424 --> 00:51:10,194 Machu Picchu sits high atop the Peruvian Andes. 770 00:51:10,229 --> 00:51:14,565 Built by the Incas in the 15th century, this stone citadel was 771 00:51:14,633 --> 00:51:19,437 suddenly abandoned about 100 years later. 772 00:51:19,471 --> 00:51:23,574 Like Puma Punku, Machu Picchu also has signs of advanced 773 00:51:23,642 --> 00:51:30,348 engineering and possibly, molded stones. 774 00:51:30,382 --> 00:51:33,618 I can't help but think that whoever was behind 775 00:51:33,652 --> 00:51:36,754 this thought the process through from beginning to end. 776 00:51:36,788 --> 00:51:39,857 They didn't quarry the rock, and then decide, "How the heck are 777 00:51:39,925 --> 00:51:41,025 we gonna transport this?" 778 00:51:41,093 --> 00:51:45,630 They knew from beginning to end what needed to be done with 779 00:51:45,664 --> 00:51:49,100 whatever techniques and technology they were going to 780 00:51:49,134 --> 00:51:53,404 use, so that this was no big deal. 781 00:51:53,438 --> 00:51:58,109 In industry today, there's a kind of an adage: "Keep it 782 00:51:58,210 --> 00:52:00,111 simple, stupid." 783 00:52:00,145 --> 00:52:02,747 Based on his experience, Mike Dunn believes 784 00:52:02,781 --> 00:52:06,384 the simplest way to build the great walls of Machu Picchu 785 00:52:06,451 --> 00:52:09,754 would have been to transport small rocks to the site, then 786 00:52:09,821 --> 00:52:15,393 melt them, and use molds to fashion exact size and shape needed. 787 00:52:15,427 --> 00:52:20,665 That would solve a lot of difficulties of constructing 788 00:52:20,732 --> 00:52:21,666 this wall. 789 00:52:21,733 --> 00:52:27,104 First, you have your shapes, all the same size, each shape. 790 00:52:27,139 --> 00:52:32,677 So you're guaranteed that they would fit together as opposed to 791 00:52:32,744 --> 00:52:36,314 being cut by different artisans. 792 00:52:36,415 --> 00:52:39,884 Melting the rocks, and then pouring them into place 793 00:52:39,952 --> 00:52:45,523 would take and incredible amount of heat just to spool off pieces 794 00:52:45,591 --> 00:52:47,225 of stone. 795 00:52:47,292 --> 00:52:53,231 I have a stone torch which I use for sometimes shaping granite. 796 00:52:53,298 --> 00:52:57,969 And, I mean, it generates a temperature of in excess of 797 00:52:58,036 --> 00:53:00,338 3,000 degrees. 798 00:53:00,372 --> 00:53:05,876 3,000 degrees... that's a lot. 799 00:53:05,944 --> 00:53:09,513 When we look back at the ancients, and we see a 800 00:53:09,548 --> 00:53:14,852 technology that they couldn't possibly know, there's only 801 00:53:14,886 --> 00:53:18,789 two possibilities then: either God did it-- which we really 802 00:53:18,824 --> 00:53:24,996 don't think happened-- or some high-tech civilization from 803 00:53:25,030 --> 00:53:28,899 another planet came and showed them how to do it, then took 804 00:53:28,967 --> 00:53:34,071 their materials and tools and went back home. 805 00:53:34,139 --> 00:53:36,707 The idea behind that is that none of these 806 00:53:36,808 --> 00:53:39,443 ancient monuments were constructed or manufactured by 807 00:53:39,511 --> 00:53:41,078 extraterrestrials. 808 00:53:41,146 --> 00:53:47,351 It was us humans who built it with extraterrestrial technology. 809 00:53:47,419 --> 00:53:50,454 It's entirely possible that there were 810 00:53:50,522 --> 00:53:54,358 visitations, that they pointed out ways to do things, and that 811 00:53:54,393 --> 00:53:57,194 they wanted to leave some kind of a record. 812 00:53:57,262 --> 00:54:00,731 I mean, if you're gonna leave a permanent record, the only way 813 00:54:00,832 --> 00:54:04,535 you can do that is in stone. 814 00:54:04,569 --> 00:54:06,904 But if advanced beings from another planet 815 00:54:07,005 --> 00:54:10,074 really did bring their technology to Earth, might the 816 00:54:10,108 --> 00:54:14,812 ancient astronauts have left one of their tools behind? 817 00:54:21,628 --> 00:54:22,194 The methods used 818 00:54:22,862 --> 00:54:26,465 to build huge megalithic structures such as Puma Punku 819 00:54:26,566 --> 00:54:30,902 and the pyramids of Egypt remain a mystery. 820 00:54:33,773 --> 00:54:36,875 But what about the tools used to build them? 821 00:54:36,909 --> 00:54:38,744 Where are they? 822 00:54:38,811 --> 00:54:42,080 And might they provide a clue as to how these enormous stone 823 00:54:42,148 --> 00:54:44,283 structures were created? 824 00:54:47,553 --> 00:54:51,189 A lot of the real ancient mysterious work was done 825 00:54:51,257 --> 00:54:56,094 at a time when there was no steel, and the copper they had 826 00:54:56,162 --> 00:55:01,466 was, yeah, they could harden it by cold-hammering it, but still, 827 00:55:01,567 --> 00:55:06,805 it wouldn't make a dent in rocks like basalt and granite. 828 00:55:07,907 --> 00:55:11,476 So they would have had to use, you know, much more laborious 829 00:55:11,577 --> 00:55:16,448 techniques othey had some sort of advanced technology which 830 00:55:16,549 --> 00:55:22,187 escapes me, and I've been in the business 40 years. 831 00:55:26,326 --> 00:55:29,461 The tools and machines must have been equal to the task 832 00:55:29,529 --> 00:55:34,232 of actually building the pyramids, crafting those statues 833 00:55:34,267 --> 00:55:39,471 to such a high order of precision... crafting those boxes to a 834 00:55:39,539 --> 00:55:45,811 modern-day precision that you find in our inspection lab. 835 00:55:45,845 --> 00:55:49,648 And the big question: Where are the tools? 836 00:55:59,859 --> 00:56:03,795 In the late 19th century, British archaeologist 837 00:56:03,830 --> 00:56:07,766 Sir Flinders Petrie scoured Egypt, looking not for the 838 00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:12,637 biggest items, but the smallest. 839 00:56:14,173 --> 00:56:17,509 Petrie was absolutely fascinated by the 840 00:56:17,543 --> 00:56:20,512 technical achievements of the Egyptians, particularly the 841 00:56:20,546 --> 00:56:22,514 early Egtians. 842 00:56:22,515 --> 00:56:26,318 He constantly was looking for how they made things, how they 843 00:56:26,386 --> 00:56:30,122 developed things, how they continued to sort of basically 844 00:56:30,156 --> 00:56:32,157 perfect their tools. 845 00:56:32,225 --> 00:56:35,293 We're normally taught that the ancient Egyptians had 846 00:56:35,328 --> 00:56:40,932 simple tools, and what Petrie brought out is information that 847 00:56:40,967 --> 00:56:46,238 seems to actually argue against that notion. 848 00:56:51,010 --> 00:56:53,979 This is an example of a drill hole. 849 00:56:54,013 --> 00:56:56,148 You can see the very fine lines on it. 850 00:56:56,249 --> 00:56:59,351 You can see the technology that's made to use it. 851 00:56:59,419 --> 00:57:02,621 You can see how it's a perfect hole almost all the way 852 00:57:02,688 --> 00:57:04,790 through, but it tapers at one end. 853 00:57:04,824 --> 00:57:06,992 This is a fragment of a diorite bowl. 854 00:57:07,026 --> 00:57:10,262 It's one of the hardest substances, and you can see on 855 00:57:10,296 --> 00:57:13,999 this, on this fragment that there's a, a lathe mark, which 856 00:57:14,066 --> 00:57:17,169 is really interesting that they managed to make such a mark in 857 00:57:17,270 --> 00:57:20,605 such a hard material. 858 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:24,042 Among all the tools discovered by Petrie, however, 859 00:57:24,076 --> 00:57:27,179 one stood out from all the rest. 860 00:57:27,246 --> 00:57:31,983 While working inside the Great Pyramid, Petrie stumbled across 861 00:57:32,051 --> 00:57:37,522 a tubular drill made of granite. 862 00:57:37,590 --> 00:57:39,791 Tubular drills amongst the ancient Egyptians 863 00:57:39,826 --> 00:57:41,159 were actually fairly common. 864 00:57:41,227 --> 00:57:43,929 I mean, Petrie found quite a few of them. 865 00:57:43,963 --> 00:57:46,865 The interesting thing about the one that he found in Giza is 866 00:57:46,933 --> 00:57:51,036 that it's such hard stone that was so carefully carved, 867 00:57:51,070 --> 00:57:53,138 precisely grooved. 868 00:57:53,172 --> 00:57:57,509 As you can see, it's got very, very fine markings on it, 869 00:57:57,610 --> 00:58:01,513 basically lines, literally a couple of millimeters apart. 870 00:58:01,614 --> 00:58:06,785 You can see it goes all the way round very, very accurately, 871 00:58:06,853 --> 00:58:08,887 hardly any waves at all. 872 00:58:08,955 --> 00:58:11,623 He was absolutely amazed by this. 873 00:58:11,657 --> 00:58:15,160 He kept returning to it throughout his life. 874 00:58:15,228 --> 00:58:19,364 His theory was that the Egyptians must have had access 875 00:58:19,432 --> 00:58:23,001 to diamonds or some kind of jewel that would have cut it. 876 00:58:23,069 --> 00:58:27,906 The interesting thing about Petrie's theory about how these 877 00:58:27,974 --> 00:58:30,542 drill lines are made was that he never discovered any diamonds 878 00:58:30,610 --> 00:58:32,811 in ancient Egypt. 879 00:58:34,447 --> 00:58:35,914 So where were they? 880 00:58:35,982 --> 00:58:36,982 Where did they go? 881 00:58:37,016 --> 00:58:39,918 We don't know. 882 00:58:39,986 --> 00:58:42,320 If the ancient Egyptians didn't possess 883 00:58:42,388 --> 00:58:46,525 diamonds, how were the precision grooves cut onto the 884 00:58:46,592 --> 00:58:47,692 granite drill? 885 00:58:47,727 --> 00:58:51,396 Did Petrie accidentally discover a tool made by 886 00:58:51,430 --> 00:58:53,532 extraterrestrials? 887 00:58:53,599 --> 00:58:57,569 Machinist expert Chris Dunn attempted to answer this 888 00:58:57,603 --> 00:59:01,406 question by creating his own granite drill using the known 889 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:07,212 tools and techniques of the ancient Egyptians. 890 00:59:07,213 --> 00:59:11,316 In order to test the Egyptologist theory about how 891 00:59:11,350 --> 00:59:15,086 the ancient Egyptians drilled into granite, I took a tube and 892 00:59:15,154 --> 00:59:21,893 I fixed a crank on it, and actually used sand and silicon 893 00:59:21,928 --> 00:59:26,431 carbide, and after many hours of turning and drilling into this 894 00:59:26,499 --> 00:59:30,635 piece of granite, finally got deep enough that I could 895 00:59:30,703 --> 00:59:32,170 actually pop a core out. 896 00:59:32,204 --> 00:59:35,974 And the reason for that was to actually look at the surface, 897 00:59:36,008 --> 00:59:39,911 not just of the whole, but of the core. 898 00:59:39,912 --> 00:59:43,281 The next step was to use a high-tech industrial 899 00:59:43,349 --> 00:59:47,452 microscope to compare his drill core to a latex copy of the one 900 00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:49,354 at the Petrie Museum. 901 00:59:49,422 --> 00:59:52,824 We have under the microscope the core that we 902 00:59:52,892 --> 00:59:55,927 drilled with the copper tube and sand. 903 00:59:55,995 --> 01:00:01,099 And as you can see, the surface of the core, the striations are 904 01:00:01,133 --> 01:00:04,202 not very clear. 905 01:00:04,236 --> 01:00:09,240 There's nothinreally distinctive in terms of the feed 906 01:00:09,275 --> 01:00:15,814 of the tool marks using sand and, and copper. 907 01:00:15,881 --> 01:00:19,985 Now bringing the latex that they took of the core in the Petrie 908 01:00:20,052 --> 01:00:24,789 Museum, and we see something totally different. 909 01:00:24,857 --> 01:00:30,362 The striations are very clear and they're quite deep. 910 01:00:30,396 --> 01:00:34,265 The devil is actually in the details, and the details of this 911 01:00:34,367 --> 01:00:39,371 particular artifact are what I consider to be a smoking gun 912 01:00:39,438 --> 01:00:44,442 in terms of what level of technology we give the ancient 913 01:00:44,477 --> 01:00:47,178 Egyptians credit for. 914 01:00:49,715 --> 01:00:53,351 Intrigued by his discovery, Chris Dunn performed 915 01:00:53,419 --> 01:00:58,289 other experiments using his precision instruments. 916 01:00:58,324 --> 01:01:03,361 As you can see, this is a... an inspection surface 917 01:01:03,396 --> 01:01:10,168 plate, uh, probably ground to within 2/10,000 of an inch. 918 01:01:10,202 --> 01:01:15,473 That is one-tenth the thickness of a human hair. 919 01:01:15,508 --> 01:01:20,912 Now, I was really amazed when I went inside the serapeum and put 920 01:01:20,980 --> 01:01:26,484 these gauges up against the surface, and found them to be 921 01:01:26,519 --> 01:01:31,089 within what I consider to be the tolerance of these particular 922 01:01:31,123 --> 01:01:33,458 gauges. 923 01:01:33,492 --> 01:01:38,129 If you would put a piece of paper under one edge of that 924 01:01:38,197 --> 01:01:44,269 blade-- just a piece of paper-- you begin to see that there 925 01:01:44,303 --> 01:01:47,672 was... would be light leaking through. 926 01:01:47,740 --> 01:01:52,944 And so, the precision on the inside of the granite boxes in 927 01:01:53,012 --> 01:02:01,953 the serapeum are, I would say, within 2/1,000 of an inch, 928 01:02:01,987 --> 01:02:05,557 which is incredible because those tolerances can't just 929 01:02:05,591 --> 01:02:09,494 appear by accident. 930 01:02:09,562 --> 01:02:11,763 It was very shocking. 931 01:02:11,831 --> 01:02:16,234 It was astounding to me to go to Egypt and, uh, go into a 932 01:02:16,302 --> 01:02:21,372 facility that was supposedly 3,000 years old and find the 933 01:02:21,407 --> 01:02:24,008 same kind of precision. 934 01:02:24,043 --> 01:02:28,246 I was amazed. 935 01:02:30,382 --> 01:02:34,519 I've seen evidence of the carvings on granite done 936 01:02:34,553 --> 01:02:38,757 in Egypt, and they did... they did it with little shards of, 937 01:02:38,791 --> 01:02:40,759 uh... of quartz. 938 01:02:40,793 --> 01:02:43,828 I believe they would have just scratched away the stone with 939 01:02:43,863 --> 01:02:45,029 that. 940 01:02:45,064 --> 01:02:48,733 That... that's one possibility, but I mean, that's... that... 941 01:02:48,768 --> 01:02:51,469 That's a heck of a lot of work to do that. 942 01:02:51,537 --> 01:02:54,139 I mean, we're talking, somebody would devote years to doing 943 01:02:54,206 --> 01:02:55,940 something like that. 944 01:02:56,008 --> 01:02:58,943 But here is my point. 945 01:02:58,978 --> 01:03:02,080 Here we have a real-life stonecutter-- you. 946 01:03:02,148 --> 01:03:03,081 Yeah. 947 01:03:03,149 --> 01:03:05,950 You see this, and there's, like, smoke coming out 948 01:03:05,985 --> 01:03:07,418 of your head. 949 01:03:07,453 --> 01:03:10,221 Let's put it this way-- I had a client come in and 950 01:03:10,256 --> 01:03:13,224 ask me to do that, I wouldn't do it for any amount of money 951 01:03:13,259 --> 01:03:17,862 because I'm not going to waste my life trying to replicate that. 952 01:03:17,897 --> 01:03:22,000 But precision-cut stone monuments are not the only 953 01:03:22,067 --> 01:03:25,069 enduring Middle Eastern mysteries. 954 01:03:25,104 --> 01:03:29,440 Engineering experts have also examined the Bible story of the 955 01:03:29,542 --> 01:03:32,277 Israelites' exodus from Egypt. 956 01:03:32,311 --> 01:03:36,815 Just how did they survive for 40 years in the desert? 957 01:03:36,882 --> 01:03:39,884 Could they have possessed intricate machines with 958 01:03:39,919 --> 01:03:43,421 extraordinary abilities, used not for building, but for man's 959 01:03:43,455 --> 01:03:46,090 own survival? 960 01:03:51,076 --> 01:03:53,844 In the Hebrew Bible, the Book of Exodus 961 01:03:53,912 --> 01:03:57,114 describes how the Jewish people suffered as slaves living in 962 01:03:57,182 --> 01:04:00,985 Egypt. 963 01:04:01,019 --> 01:04:05,456 Then sometime in the 14th century BC, the ruling pharaoh 964 01:04:05,524 --> 01:04:08,559 feared their growing numbers and ordered the killing of all 965 01:04:08,593 --> 01:04:10,561 first-born Jews living in Egypt. 966 01:04:13,031 --> 01:04:16,834 In an effort to save her son, one mother put her child in a 967 01:04:16,902 --> 01:04:22,106 small basket and set him adrift on the Nile River. 968 01:04:24,009 --> 01:04:27,445 That child was found by the pharaoh's family, who named him 969 01:04:27,479 --> 01:04:31,015 Moses and raised him as their own. 970 01:04:31,083 --> 01:04:35,619 As an adult, Moses discovered his true identity and demanded 971 01:04:35,654 --> 01:04:38,089 that the pharaoh free the Jews. 972 01:04:38,123 --> 01:04:41,759 When the pharaoh rejected him, Moses helped the Jews escape 973 01:04:41,827 --> 01:04:42,560 from Egypt. 974 01:04:44,496 --> 01:04:48,466 Historians believe that Moses and his people crossed the Red 975 01:04:48,500 --> 01:04:52,470 Sea and made their way into the Sinai Desert. 976 01:04:52,537 --> 01:04:56,474 According to the ancient text, God grew angry at the Jews for 977 01:04:56,541 --> 01:05:00,578 idol-worshipping and forced them to wander the desert aimlessly 978 01:05:00,645 --> 01:05:04,915 for 40 years before allowing them to enter Israel. 979 01:05:04,950 --> 01:05:08,486 During this time, the Bible says the Israelites survived by 980 01:05:08,553 --> 01:05:10,588 eating a single food source: 981 01:05:10,622 --> 01:05:11,589 Manna. 982 01:05:11,656 --> 01:05:13,691 But what is manna? 983 01:05:13,759 --> 01:05:17,661 A naturally abundant food provided by God or, as some 984 01:05:17,696 --> 01:05:21,499 believe, an advanced food-dispensing machine? 985 01:05:21,500 --> 01:05:25,202 In the Bible, it explains how the Israelites 986 01:05:25,270 --> 01:05:29,740 got from Egypt, where they'd been slaves, to the Promised Land. 987 01:05:29,775 --> 01:05:34,645 They had to cross the Sinai Desert. 988 01:05:34,646 --> 01:05:39,984 And inevitably, given that there was a lot of Israelites and very 989 01:05:40,051 --> 01:05:43,788 little growing, as it was a desert, they ran short on supplies. 990 01:05:43,822 --> 01:05:48,459 God stepped in at this point and sent manna from heaven. 991 01:05:48,527 --> 01:05:52,797 This took the form of some kind of seeds that rained down upon 992 01:05:52,831 --> 01:05:53,731 the desert. 993 01:05:53,765 --> 01:05:56,066 And then they were collected the next day. 994 01:05:56,101 --> 01:05:59,904 And they provided food for the Israelites, except Friday, when 995 01:05:59,938 --> 01:06:03,274 there was a double portion, because on Saturday, being 996 01:06:03,375 --> 01:06:07,711 the Sabbath, it didn't fall. 997 01:06:07,746 --> 01:06:10,181 While the Hebrew Bible fails to give a clear 998 01:06:10,248 --> 01:06:14,718 description of manna, another ancient Jewish text provides 999 01:06:14,753 --> 01:06:17,288 an alternative clue. 1000 01:06:17,355 --> 01:06:21,158 The Zohar is a collection of spiritual commentaries and 1001 01:06:21,193 --> 01:06:25,296 interpretations of the Torah, and is central to the mystical 1002 01:06:25,363 --> 01:06:28,566 Kabbalah belief written in the 13th century. 1003 01:06:28,633 --> 01:06:32,102 The Zohar describes what is called the Ancient of Days 1004 01:06:32,137 --> 01:06:37,107 as providing the manna, but what was this Ancient of Days? 1005 01:06:37,175 --> 01:06:41,145 A man, a god or something else? 1006 01:06:41,146 --> 01:06:46,016 The text speaks of different-sized brains, 1007 01:06:46,084 --> 01:06:51,989 different-sized faces that were connected with different tubes 1008 01:06:52,023 --> 01:06:54,558 and different light sources. 1009 01:06:54,593 --> 01:06:59,096 Theologians have suggested that this is a description of God. 1010 01:06:59,130 --> 01:07:04,368 However, when looked at from a modern perspective, what is 1011 01:07:04,402 --> 01:07:10,507 described in the Zohar isn't necessarily a god figure, 1012 01:07:10,575 --> 01:07:13,944 but rather a type of machine. 1013 01:07:13,979 --> 01:07:17,147 Intrigued by this information, two electrical 1014 01:07:17,215 --> 01:07:22,119 engineers, George Sassoon and Rodney Dale, used the anatomical 1015 01:07:22,153 --> 01:07:25,656 descriptions of the Ancient of Days to design what they called 1016 01:07:25,690 --> 01:07:29,593 a manna machine. 1017 01:07:29,661 --> 01:07:33,130 This really is-is the key diagram of the manna 1018 01:07:33,198 --> 01:07:36,667 machine, as we built it up from the text. 1019 01:07:36,701 --> 01:07:41,338 For instance, one here is the mouth, but it's actually 1020 01:07:41,406 --> 01:07:46,143 the air intake, which carries what is described as the breath 1021 01:07:46,211 --> 01:07:47,144 of life. 1022 01:07:47,212 --> 01:07:51,849 The air goes up this tube here, which is described as 1023 01:07:51,883 --> 01:07:56,987 the-the brain of the Ancient One, but is actually a dew still. 1024 01:07:57,055 --> 01:08:00,257 So that although we're talking about the great sea and the 1025 01:08:00,325 --> 01:08:03,260 hairs of the beard and so on, at the same time, we were able 1026 01:08:03,328 --> 01:08:07,865 to work out their relative positions and build out the 1027 01:08:07,899 --> 01:08:11,235 specification of the machine, and find that we had something 1028 01:08:11,269 --> 01:08:14,171 that was biochemically viable. 1029 01:08:21,680 --> 01:08:24,248 The machine sucked in moist morning air and 1030 01:08:24,349 --> 01:08:26,951 condensed in the upper part of the machine that looked like 1031 01:08:26,985 --> 01:08:30,454 a Plexiglas dome. 1032 01:08:30,455 --> 01:08:34,258 From there, it was led down to an algae culture. 1033 01:08:34,359 --> 01:08:37,227 The algae culture was treated with energy, such as a strong 1034 01:08:37,262 --> 01:08:41,231 laser light, in order to speed the growth. 1035 01:08:43,702 --> 01:08:47,237 Of course, it needed energy for cultivating the algae. 1036 01:08:47,272 --> 01:08:51,275 And this was produced, we postulate, in a small nuclear 1037 01:08:51,376 --> 01:08:55,446 reactor, which would produce both heat and light as required. 1038 01:09:00,251 --> 01:09:03,354 The manna machine is a very dangerous device. 1039 01:09:03,388 --> 01:09:06,156 We suspect that the reactor that powered the machine was 1040 01:09:06,191 --> 01:09:10,160 transported in the Ark of the Covenant. 1041 01:09:13,565 --> 01:09:16,934 We have multiple references in the Bible that 1042 01:09:17,002 --> 01:09:22,272 whoever came close to the Ark of the Covenant and didn't know how 1043 01:09:22,307 --> 01:09:24,908 to operate it was smitten to death. 1044 01:09:27,145 --> 01:09:32,649 And sometimes people, after they encountered the Ark, started to 1045 01:09:32,751 --> 01:09:36,120 lose their nails and started to lose their hair. 1046 01:09:36,187 --> 01:09:41,492 So we have evidence of some type of radiation poisoning which 1047 01:09:41,559 --> 01:09:45,129 was in direct correlation with the Ark of the Covenant. 1048 01:09:45,196 --> 01:09:49,933 And so, the Ark of the Covenant housed an extraterrestrial 1049 01:09:50,001 --> 01:09:54,638 device which was given to the Israelites during their 40-year 1050 01:09:54,739 --> 01:09:57,908 wandering through the desert. 1051 01:09:57,976 --> 01:10:01,111 The manna machine is believed to have supplied a 1052 01:10:01,179 --> 01:10:04,915 highly nutritious form of green algae, or chlorella, as its food 1053 01:10:04,949 --> 01:10:06,250 source. 1054 01:10:06,284 --> 01:10:10,654 It's yet another theory supported by modern science. 1055 01:10:10,722 --> 01:10:14,458 We found that work in the field of space travel had 1056 01:10:14,526 --> 01:10:18,662 already been done, where the green algae-- chlorella-- was 1057 01:10:18,730 --> 01:10:25,936 bred in tanks and fed to people living in a closed environment 1058 01:10:25,970 --> 01:10:28,372 and kept them alive. 1059 01:10:28,440 --> 01:10:31,842 Research studies done by NASA in the 1960s and 1060 01:10:31,876 --> 01:10:35,746 1970s established that human life could be sustained for 1061 01:10:35,814 --> 01:10:39,883 extended periods of time by consuming chlorella algae and 1062 01:10:39,918 --> 01:10:41,251 nothing else. 1063 01:10:41,286 --> 01:10:45,322 If it's possible for astronauts to survive on algae, could the 1064 01:10:45,356 --> 01:10:49,259 Israelites have done the same? 1065 01:10:51,529 --> 01:10:55,532 The manna machine was a sensitive device. 1066 01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:57,701 It had to be cleaned. 1067 01:10:57,735 --> 01:11:00,471 Once a week was cleaning day, where the machine wouldn't 1068 01:11:00,538 --> 01:11:05,809 produce food and the tribe would not move. 1069 01:11:05,844 --> 01:11:11,515 So the Sabbath, the Saturday, could derive from that necessity. 1070 01:11:14,752 --> 01:11:17,988 One theory that one could put forward of course is 1071 01:11:18,022 --> 01:11:23,827 that the machine, although they knew how to maintain it and make 1072 01:11:23,895 --> 01:11:28,866 it produce the manna, that it did after a time pack up, not 1073 01:11:28,900 --> 01:11:29,800 work anymore. 1074 01:11:29,868 --> 01:11:32,169 And that was why they came out of the desert. 1075 01:11:32,270 --> 01:11:34,705 But if the Israelites' survival depended 1076 01:11:34,772 --> 01:11:37,975 upon the manna machine, where did they get it? 1077 01:11:38,042 --> 01:11:41,145 Some believe they had stolen it from the Egyptians prior to 1078 01:11:41,179 --> 01:11:42,513 their exodus. 1079 01:11:42,547 --> 01:11:46,183 Others suspect extraterrestrials gave it to them as a 1080 01:11:46,251 --> 01:11:50,187 humanitarian gesture, to prevent their starvation in the desert. 1081 01:11:50,255 --> 01:11:54,458 Either way, the answer, like the Ark of the Covenant, seems lost 1082 01:11:54,492 --> 01:11:57,094 to history. 1083 01:11:59,797 --> 01:12:03,734 Today, scientists have successfully pioneered a process 1084 01:12:03,801 --> 01:12:07,371 that produces a substance high in protein by means of solar 1085 01:12:07,405 --> 01:12:11,175 energy, water vapor, and chlorella algae. 1086 01:12:11,242 --> 01:12:15,112 Could this be a duplication of alien technology from thousands 1087 01:12:15,180 --> 01:12:17,014 of years ago? 1088 01:12:17,048 --> 01:12:21,118 They actually built a machine, a machine based 1089 01:12:21,186 --> 01:12:26,156 on algae culture producing some type of super food. 1090 01:12:26,191 --> 01:12:32,029 And we can find a similar type of technology described in the 1091 01:12:32,096 --> 01:12:33,363 Zohar. 1092 01:12:33,398 --> 01:12:36,366 Is history repeating itself? 1093 01:12:36,401 --> 01:12:40,170 - One of the big - Where did the 1094 01:12:40,205 --> 01:12:41,271 machine come from? 1095 01:12:41,306 --> 01:12:43,740 And I suppose there are two answers to that. 1096 01:12:43,841 --> 01:12:48,278 Either it was built on Earth, which is a theory I can't really 1097 01:12:48,313 --> 01:12:49,379 subscribe to. 1098 01:12:49,414 --> 01:12:52,382 The other question of course is that it might have come from 1099 01:12:52,417 --> 01:12:53,750 outer space somewhere. 1100 01:12:53,851 --> 01:12:58,922 Now, that's quite a big leap of imagination, but of course the 1101 01:12:59,023 --> 01:13:03,860 interesting part is that it actually produces food as is 1102 01:13:03,895 --> 01:13:05,596 used by spacecraft. 1103 01:13:05,663 --> 01:13:08,599 If the ancient world contained manna machines, 1104 01:13:08,666 --> 01:13:13,103 giant mega-saws, and sophisticated aircraft, what was 1105 01:13:13,137 --> 01:13:16,406 the energy source for all of this technology? 1106 01:13:16,474 --> 01:13:19,943 The answer may be hiding in plain sight. 1107 01:13:24,191 --> 01:13:26,726 Of all the ancient structures located around the 1108 01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:31,030 world, perhaps none is more mysterious or as enduring as 1109 01:13:31,064 --> 01:13:35,735 the Great Pyramid at Giza. 1110 01:13:35,769 --> 01:13:40,406 At a height of 471 feet, the Great Pyramid stood as the 1111 01:13:40,474 --> 01:13:43,509 tallest structure in the world until the completion of the 1112 01:13:43,543 --> 01:13:46,879 Eiffel Tower in 1889. 1113 01:13:46,947 --> 01:13:50,216 But while other pyramids and temples contain walls filled 1114 01:13:50,250 --> 01:13:53,319 with hieroglyphics describing their purpose, the Great 1115 01:13:53,353 --> 01:13:56,155 Pyramid lacks even a single marking. 1116 01:13:56,223 --> 01:13:58,057 What was its function? 1117 01:13:58,091 --> 01:13:59,592 Why was it built? 1118 01:13:59,660 --> 01:14:03,329 And what secrets remain hidden inside? 1119 01:14:03,330 --> 01:14:05,931 Nobody has been able to explain the interior design 1120 01:14:05,966 --> 01:14:06,732 of this pyramid. 1121 01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:09,335 It simply doesn't make sense, according to our logic. 1122 01:14:09,369 --> 01:14:12,405 You have narrow tunnels that you have to crouch. 1123 01:14:12,506 --> 01:14:17,943 You emerge in grand galleries that are nine meters high. 1124 01:14:17,978 --> 01:14:20,946 You have chanbers that made of granite, where granite doesn't 1125 01:14:20,981 --> 01:14:22,715 come from in the area. 1126 01:14:22,749 --> 01:14:27,086 You have to ship the granite by barges 600 miles away. 1127 01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:30,222 It's an anonymous site. 1128 01:14:30,257 --> 01:14:32,324 Not a single inscription. 1129 01:14:32,359 --> 01:14:34,326 Not a single hieroglyph. 1130 01:14:34,361 --> 01:14:36,696 Not a single anything. 1131 01:14:36,763 --> 01:14:38,964 It's just there. 1132 01:14:42,135 --> 01:14:45,438 Some people speculated that it was a temple and an 1133 01:14:45,539 --> 01:14:48,240 initiation chamber, where people would go to the king's 1134 01:14:48,275 --> 01:14:50,710 chamber and become enlightened. 1135 01:14:50,744 --> 01:14:54,313 There are anecdotal reports about people who have been 1136 01:14:54,347 --> 01:14:57,149 inside the pyramid and have come out absolutely shaken and-- 1137 01:14:57,184 --> 01:15:00,720 because it was haunted. 1138 01:15:05,058 --> 01:15:07,259 Egyptologists believe that the pyramids were 1139 01:15:07,327 --> 01:15:10,296 built to bury the dead pharaoh. 1140 01:15:10,297 --> 01:15:13,733 The problem with the accepted view is the fact that not a 1141 01:15:13,800 --> 01:15:16,836 single dead pharaoh's body has been found inside a pyramid, 1142 01:15:16,903 --> 01:15:20,272 even when the pyramid was completely sealed, I.e. not a 1143 01:15:20,340 --> 01:15:23,809 single grave robber could have entered it. 1144 01:15:23,910 --> 01:15:27,279 The Egyptologists say it's to conceal the body. 1145 01:15:27,314 --> 01:15:29,348 Well, why advertise it? 1146 01:15:29,382 --> 01:15:33,452 I mean, there's nothing more visible than a pyramid for miles. 1147 01:15:36,056 --> 01:15:39,291 And to this day, you would have thought, in this modern age, 1148 01:15:39,326 --> 01:15:41,727 with all the knowledge we have, we should be able to explain 1149 01:15:41,762 --> 01:15:42,661 this pyramid. 1150 01:15:42,696 --> 01:15:46,565 We cannot explain this pyramid. 1151 01:15:46,633 --> 01:15:49,101 Engineering expert Christopher Dunn has 1152 01:15:49,169 --> 01:15:52,438 been on a personal quest to unlock the secrets of the Great 1153 01:15:52,472 --> 01:15:56,008 Pyramid since the late 1970s. 1154 01:15:56,109 --> 01:15:59,011 According to him, there are specific clues in the design 1155 01:15:59,112 --> 01:16:02,314 and construction of this mega-monument that can help 1156 01:16:02,382 --> 01:16:06,185 answer exactly why it was built. 1157 01:16:06,219 --> 01:16:09,455 When you look at the Great Pyramid, and look at the 1158 01:16:09,489 --> 01:16:12,658 culture that built it, they're brilliant, brilliant engineers. 1159 01:16:12,726 --> 01:16:14,860 In fact, a lot of engineers say we couldn't build the Great 1160 01:16:14,928 --> 01:16:15,728 Pyramid today. 1161 01:16:15,762 --> 01:16:18,998 And it was built, supposedly, 4,500 years ago. 1162 01:16:19,099 --> 01:16:23,702 And it was built to the precision of a machine. 1163 01:16:23,737 --> 01:16:27,807 When I started to do the research and I examined the 1164 01:16:27,841 --> 01:16:33,479 Great Pyramid with the eye of functionality, um, it was built 1165 01:16:33,547 --> 01:16:34,480 like a machine. 1166 01:16:34,548 --> 01:16:38,184 Perhaps it functioned like a machine. 1167 01:16:38,218 --> 01:16:40,653 The interior design of the Great Pyramid 1168 01:16:40,687 --> 01:16:44,290 features four inclined air shafts emanating from the 1169 01:16:44,357 --> 01:16:47,760 king's chamber and the lower queen's chamber. 1170 01:16:47,828 --> 01:16:51,530 Like the Great Pyramid itself, their presence and purpose 1171 01:16:51,565 --> 01:16:53,833 cannot be easily explained. 1172 01:16:53,900 --> 01:16:57,036 The difficulty of building those shafts is incredible. 1173 01:16:57,103 --> 01:17:00,840 It's a bit like building a chimney at an incline across a house. 1174 01:17:00,874 --> 01:17:03,909 I mean, as a construction engineer, it's a nightmare. 1175 01:17:04,010 --> 01:17:08,581 In 2002, a team of engineers and Egyptologists 1176 01:17:08,648 --> 01:17:12,084 sent a small robot into one of the airshafts connected to the 1177 01:17:12,118 --> 01:17:13,552 queen's chamber. 1178 01:17:13,587 --> 01:17:18,190 After 65 meters, a stone door blocked its path. 1179 01:17:18,225 --> 01:17:21,093 A hole was then drilled through it. 1180 01:17:21,127 --> 01:17:24,096 On the other side was a small room with yet another door 1181 01:17:24,130 --> 01:17:26,398 leading further up the shaft. 1182 01:17:28,134 --> 01:17:31,237 Since the discovery of the door, we've had every 1183 01:17:31,271 --> 01:17:35,107 university, archeologist, anthropologist, every engineer 1184 01:17:35,141 --> 01:17:38,210 you can think of-- nobody has been able to explain the purpose 1185 01:17:38,245 --> 01:17:40,145 of the shafts. 1186 01:17:40,213 --> 01:17:42,948 But were these shafts ever open? 1187 01:17:43,016 --> 01:17:46,852 And if they were, what might they have been used for? 1188 01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:49,221 The early explorers that went into the 1189 01:17:49,256 --> 01:17:53,158 queen's chamber found that the walls were covered with a layer 1190 01:17:53,226 --> 01:17:54,426 of salt. 1191 01:17:54,494 --> 01:18:00,332 That kind of gelled with a theory that I had developed. 1192 01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:04,770 You had a dilute hydrochloric acid solution coming down one 1193 01:18:04,804 --> 01:18:10,242 shaft and hydrated zinc coming down the other shaft and when 1194 01:18:10,310 --> 01:18:14,947 they combined in the queen's chamber, they created hydrogen. 1195 01:18:14,981 --> 01:18:16,415 Hydrogen. 1196 01:18:16,483 --> 01:18:20,152 It is one of the most powerful energy sources in the universe. 1197 01:18:20,220 --> 01:18:24,623 In the mid-19th century, it was hydrogen gas that helped 1198 01:18:24,691 --> 01:18:27,960 lift some of mankind's first airships, called zeppelins, 1199 01:18:27,994 --> 01:18:30,529 into the sky. 1200 01:18:30,597 --> 01:18:35,167 Today, it is used as a fuel to launch rockets into space. 1201 01:18:35,235 --> 01:18:40,205 And if, thousands of years ago, the Great Pyramid was actually 1202 01:18:40,240 --> 01:18:43,575 producing hydrogen, that would make it one of the earliest 1203 01:18:43,610 --> 01:18:46,145 power plants known to man. 1204 01:18:46,212 --> 01:18:49,682 The Giza power plant theory is essentially the 1205 01:18:49,749 --> 01:18:54,586 drawing of energy from the Earth through the Great 1206 01:18:54,654 --> 01:19:00,526 Pyramid, and converting that energy into microwave energy. 1207 01:19:00,593 --> 01:19:05,130 So the chemicals actually come in through the shafts into the 1208 01:19:05,231 --> 01:19:08,300 queen's chamber, and then they combine and mix and 1209 01:19:08,335 --> 01:19:10,135 hydrogen boils off. 1210 01:19:10,236 --> 01:19:13,405 The hydrogen is then lighter than air and it will flow into 1211 01:19:13,440 --> 01:19:15,307 all the upper chambers. 1212 01:19:15,342 --> 01:19:21,780 The energy from the earth is then vibrating the whole pyramid. 1213 01:19:21,815 --> 01:19:25,784 The vibrations are picked up in the Grand Gallery. 1214 01:19:25,819 --> 01:19:30,155 So I proposed the Grand Gallery was a resonator hall and there 1215 01:19:30,256 --> 01:19:34,693 are 27 pair of slots that actually go up the length of 1216 01:19:34,728 --> 01:19:37,329 the gallery and then the resonators were mounted in 1217 01:19:37,430 --> 01:19:39,832 there vertically. 1218 01:19:39,833 --> 01:19:43,268 Christopher Dunn is theorizing that with 1219 01:19:43,303 --> 01:19:47,639 resonating galleries, the pyramid shot a microwave out of 1220 01:19:47,674 --> 01:19:53,178 one of the shafts, and once you started up this power plant, it 1221 01:19:53,279 --> 01:19:57,249 would have gone on for years, decades, even hundreds of years 1222 01:19:57,283 --> 01:20:01,253 without stopping and creating the microwave. 1223 01:20:01,254 --> 01:20:04,556 And that was a usable energy that could be captured. 1224 01:20:04,624 --> 01:20:07,459 Now we can speculate where it goes from there. 1225 01:20:07,527 --> 01:20:10,362 It could be collected in the immediate vicinity or it could 1226 01:20:10,397 --> 01:20:12,698 keep traveling off into space. 1227 01:20:12,732 --> 01:20:14,266 We don't know. 1228 01:20:14,334 --> 01:20:16,802 That's the mystery. 1229 01:20:16,836 --> 01:20:20,472 But if the Great Pyramid was actually a power 1230 01:20:20,507 --> 01:20:24,543 plant producing energy, was it doing it alone, or was it part 1231 01:20:24,577 --> 01:20:28,647 of a larger network? 1232 01:20:28,715 --> 01:20:32,017 And are there any clues that could tell us what all of that 1233 01:20:32,052 --> 01:20:34,253 energy was being used for? 1234 01:20:40,439 --> 01:20:43,308 Perhaps the 20th century's most influential 1235 01:20:43,409 --> 01:20:49,414 inventor was a Serbian-American named Nikola Tesla. 1236 01:20:49,448 --> 01:20:53,051 His patents on alternating electrical currents and 1237 01:20:53,119 --> 01:20:56,421 distribution helped establish the commercial electricity 1238 01:20:56,455 --> 01:20:58,223 industry. 1239 01:20:58,290 --> 01:21:03,862 He also made contributions to robotics, radar, and computer 1240 01:21:03,929 --> 01:21:08,633 science. 1241 01:21:08,667 --> 01:21:12,604 But while Tesla can be credited for many scientific advances, 1242 01:21:12,671 --> 01:21:15,874 one idea that fell short was his attempt to create a 1243 01:21:15,941 --> 01:21:17,942 wireless electrical grid. 1244 01:21:17,943 --> 01:21:22,614 Tesla's project was to have these towers around 1245 01:21:22,648 --> 01:21:25,884 the United States and around the world. 1246 01:21:25,951 --> 01:21:32,690 And they would broadcast electricity like a television station. 1247 01:21:35,694 --> 01:21:38,396 Instead of having to string power lines all over 1248 01:21:38,430 --> 01:21:41,633 the place, you just transmit the energy through the air 1249 01:21:41,700 --> 01:21:44,035 or through the ground. 1250 01:21:46,539 --> 01:21:50,141 There were a number of demonstrations of this device 1251 01:21:50,176 --> 01:21:54,379 for wireless power transmission during Tesla's lifetime. 1252 01:21:54,413 --> 01:21:56,648 So, we know the device worked. 1253 01:21:59,518 --> 01:22:03,922 It appears that he was using the conductivity of the ground 1254 01:22:03,956 --> 01:22:07,825 or the air to carry the electric current. 1255 01:22:07,927 --> 01:22:11,462 Basically in the air, if you put enough voltage on it, 1256 01:22:11,530 --> 01:22:13,364 you'll get an arc across it. 1257 01:22:13,399 --> 01:22:17,936 I mean, you see that all the time in a fluorescent lightbulb. 1258 01:22:18,003 --> 01:22:21,005 In the ground you have water, minerals, salts that can also 1259 01:22:21,040 --> 01:22:26,644 carry the ions along, and therefore carry the electric current. 1260 01:22:26,679 --> 01:22:30,648 But while Tesla's power towers proved popular in 1261 01:22:30,683 --> 01:22:35,486 theory, the project ended in financial failure. 1262 01:22:35,521 --> 01:22:39,591 But could Tesla's idea of wireless electricity have been 1263 01:22:39,625 --> 01:22:44,028 a rediscovery of an ancient technology? 1264 01:22:49,568 --> 01:22:53,104 I believe that what Tesla was doing was trying 1265 01:22:53,138 --> 01:22:58,977 to recreate what was an ancient power system that was used 1266 01:22:59,011 --> 01:23:03,181 around the world, and the way they did this was the use of 1267 01:23:03,215 --> 01:23:05,850 obelisks. 1268 01:23:11,557 --> 01:23:17,895 Obelisks as monolithic, granite towers, which are one solid 1269 01:23:17,930 --> 01:23:21,466 piece of crystal, and the obelisks themselves were cut 1270 01:23:21,533 --> 01:23:28,106 to special sizes and tuned like a tuning fork. 1271 01:23:28,173 --> 01:23:30,908 Could these ancient broadcast towers really have 1272 01:23:30,943 --> 01:23:34,679 sent electricity up into the atmosphere? 1273 01:23:34,713 --> 01:23:39,117 And if so, how was the electricity generated? 1274 01:23:39,184 --> 01:23:42,020 Each of these obelisks would have required 1275 01:23:42,054 --> 01:23:46,224 some kind of generating power station similar to what we have 1276 01:23:46,258 --> 01:23:47,725 today. 1277 01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:51,929 Electricity is created by rotating magnetic fields. 1278 01:23:51,964 --> 01:23:55,967 So rotating magnetic fields generate AC power. 1279 01:23:56,035 --> 01:23:59,103 The very first power station was built by Nikola Tesla at 1280 01:23:59,138 --> 01:24:01,372 Niagara Falls. 1281 01:24:01,407 --> 01:24:06,010 You've got to have some sort of power that's spinning the 1282 01:24:06,045 --> 01:24:10,214 rotating fields, and in this case would be water. 1283 01:24:10,249 --> 01:24:14,419 So every obelisk would have had to have had a power station 1284 01:24:14,520 --> 01:24:17,055 similar to like the one at Niagara Falls. 1285 01:24:17,089 --> 01:24:20,291 It's generating power, but the obelisk itself is putting the 1286 01:24:20,326 --> 01:24:24,262 power into the atmosphere, making it useable. 1287 01:24:24,296 --> 01:24:27,699 And this is similar to Christopher Dunn's theory of 1288 01:24:27,766 --> 01:24:32,704 the Giza power plant because he believes that the Great Pyramid 1289 01:24:32,771 --> 01:24:36,341 was actually sending a microwave beam to a satellite 1290 01:24:36,408 --> 01:24:40,244 that was in orbit around the planet. 1291 01:24:40,279 --> 01:24:45,983 That satellite then could have been taking microwave power and 1292 01:24:46,051 --> 01:24:49,587 then it could transmit it again, in theory, to some other 1293 01:24:49,621 --> 01:24:53,424 location on the earth, such as, say a remote island 1294 01:24:53,492 --> 01:24:56,494 like Easter Island or something like that. 1295 01:24:56,528 --> 01:24:59,630 From some of the descriptions of ancient flying 1296 01:24:59,698 --> 01:25:04,435 machines, it's possible that some form of power beaming 1297 01:25:04,503 --> 01:25:06,070 might have been used. 1298 01:25:06,138 --> 01:25:11,275 And in fact, for a lot of the schemes that you see, it 1299 01:25:11,343 --> 01:25:14,512 actually would make a lot of sense because you could put the 1300 01:25:14,546 --> 01:25:19,450 power beaming station on a mother ship in orbit. 1301 01:25:19,518 --> 01:25:23,454 You're just beaming energy to the vehicle, where it's 1302 01:25:23,522 --> 01:25:26,824 absorbed and turned into propulsion thrust. 1303 01:25:26,859 --> 01:25:30,361 It actually makes a lot of sense because you're taking the 1304 01:25:30,429 --> 01:25:34,465 energy system, the power system, off of the vehicle and 1305 01:25:34,533 --> 01:25:37,001 locating it remotely. 1306 01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:48,880 Electricity... power tools... mega-machinery... 1307 01:25:48,914 --> 01:25:53,484 And the ability to explore the heavens... 1308 01:25:53,552 --> 01:25:58,022 Have these technologies been available for just the past few 1309 01:25:58,090 --> 01:25:59,624 centuries? 1310 01:25:59,658 --> 01:26:05,163 Or are they of ancient origin, only recently rediscovered? 1311 01:26:05,197 --> 01:26:09,033 Were our ancestors capable of these incredible achievements? 1312 01:26:09,101 --> 01:26:13,171 Or might they have come from another source, one much more 1313 01:26:13,205 --> 01:26:16,374 out of this world? 1314 01:26:16,408 --> 01:26:20,311 Civilizations were much more advanced that we 1315 01:26:20,379 --> 01:26:25,817 give them credit, and literally, as vanced as we are today. 1316 01:26:27,920 --> 01:26:30,555 In my view, we need to take this seriously 1317 01:26:30,622 --> 01:26:32,824 simply because of the scale of the work. 1318 01:26:32,858 --> 01:26:34,826 We're looking at monuments that took, perhaps, a century to 1319 01:26:34,860 --> 01:26:37,228 build. 1320 01:26:37,229 --> 01:26:41,632 Even today, we have difficulty in considering such a project. 1321 01:26:41,667 --> 01:26:43,835 It just boggles the mind. 1322 01:26:43,902 --> 01:26:47,071 And really, to look at those artifacts and to go back in 1323 01:26:47,105 --> 01:26:50,274 time and say, how did they do it? 1324 01:26:50,342 --> 01:26:52,910 We are kind of cracking the lid open a little bit and looking 1325 01:26:52,978 --> 01:26:56,314 inside to try and see just what happened in our history. 1326 01:26:56,381 --> 01:26:59,350 It's a question which is a scientific question. 1327 01:26:59,384 --> 01:27:01,819 And you constantly have to ask it. 1328 01:27:01,854 --> 01:27:04,822 And the possible answer of have aliens visited in the past 1329 01:27:04,890 --> 01:27:07,191 could be a potential yes. 1330 01:27:11,897 --> 01:27:15,099 It's a very specific reason why all of this 1331 01:27:15,167 --> 01:27:17,568 stuff was built in stone: 1332 01:27:17,636 --> 01:27:19,270 For posterity. 1333 01:27:19,304 --> 01:27:20,905 So it would last. 1334 01:27:20,939 -->
