1
00:00:05,490 --> 00:00:09,910
CHAIRS OF THE GODS
2
00:00:20,530 --> 00:00:28,020
Subtitles (translation and synchronization): Aktaios
3
00:02:00,620 --> 00:02:03,100
The Palomar Observatory,
4
00:02:03,150 --> 00:02:05,840
at an altitude of almost 1,800 meters,
5
00:02:05,890 --> 00:02:07,370
in the mountains of California,
6
00:02:07,370 --> 00:02:11,270
is equipped with the world's largest mirror telescope.
7
00:02:11,540 --> 00:02:13,280
Its huge concave mirror,
8
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:18,610
multiplies 1,000 times the light of the most distant stars.
9
00:02:18,710 --> 00:02:21,190
A road of 72 kilometers
10
00:02:21,190 --> 00:02:24,510
had to be constructed to transport the mirror to the observatory.
11
00:02:24,510 --> 00:02:27,410
with a width slightly larger than 5 meters
12
00:02:34,010 --> 00:02:39,490
Palomar Observatory explores the universe at a depth of 4,000,000 light-years
13
00:02:39,540 --> 00:02:45,350
One light year equals 9.46 four million million kilometers
14
00:02:45,350 --> 00:02:49,510
The nebula you see here is 2 million light-years from Earth.
15
00:02:49,570 --> 00:02:55,630
Which corresponds to 19 to 21 zero kilometers.
16
00:02:57,110 --> 00:03:01,910
The huge eye of Mount Palomar can see billions of stars in the sky.
17
00:03:03,750 --> 00:03:06,760
Today scientific researchers from all over the world
18
00:03:06,870 --> 00:03:09,770
have been fascinated by the fascinating idea
19
00:03:09,770 --> 00:03:12,140
for how many of these stars
20
00:03:12,140 --> 00:03:14,990
could host life.
21
00:03:26,050 --> 00:03:29,650
We know, for example, that even in our own galaxy,
22
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,130
at least 50 million stars
23
00:03:32,130 --> 00:03:35,040
could support a highly developed life form.
24
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,300
Our planet is also very likely,
25
00:03:37,300 --> 00:03:39,940
some distant time in the past,
26
00:03:39,940 --> 00:03:43,790
to have been visited by one of these 50 million stars.
27
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:55,890
Werner von Braun, a world-renowned rocket technologist, said:
28
00:03:55,910 --> 00:04:01,390
"I consider the existence of not only animal and plant life to be absolutely possible"
29
00:04:01,410 --> 00:04:03,460
"at the ends of the universe,"
30
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,860
"but also the existence of intelligent beings".
31
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:10,790
Professor Herman Orbert, father of interplanetary travel, said:
32
00:04:10,900 --> 00:04:15,500
"I think it is possible in unknown high intelligence,"
33
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,810
"to have visited our planet in the distant past."
34
00:04:18,810 --> 00:04:22,880
Scientists are in a hurry to adopt a negative attitude to new ideas.
35
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,400
When the railway was discovered,
36
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:29,520
They argued that humans could not withstand speeds above 32 km / h
37
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,470
The Russian scientist Kazanchev,
38
00:04:31,470 --> 00:04:34,840
member of the Moscow National Academy of Natural Sciences, states:
39
00:04:34,950 --> 00:04:39,060
"On the question of whether aliens were endowed with intelligence,"
40
00:04:39,060 --> 00:04:40,430
"have ever visited Earth,"
41
00:04:40,540 --> 00:04:42,280
"I answer in the affirmative."
42
00:04:42,280 --> 00:04:44,640
At the Minsk Academy of Sciences,
43
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,600
Dr. Vetses Slofsevchev stated:
44
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:52,720
I'm personally convinced that extraterrestrial beings have visited our planet. "
45
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,100
"because of the myriad traces they left behind".
46
00:04:55,100 --> 00:04:57,730
"We have not yet learned how to interpret these traces."
47
00:04:57,730 --> 00:05:00,270
"Only as we expand ourselves into the stars,"
48
00:05:00,270 --> 00:05:03,590
"the idea of early interplanetary contact"
49
00:05:03,690 --> 00:05:06,010
"with the Earth, it is understood".
50
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,780
Man has always dreamed of rising above the Earth.
51
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,740
Early in the age of science, he learned to fly
52
00:05:24,740 --> 00:05:26,530
but it was not enough.
53
00:05:54,700 --> 00:05:57,860
Aim at the moon and conquer it.
54
00:05:57,860 --> 00:06:00,450
The impressive progress of missile technology,
55
00:06:00,450 --> 00:06:03,560
made the whole sky accessible.
56
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,720
In the course of this century man will step on Mars
57
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,570
and the next to Aphrodite.
58
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,330
What a welcome our astronauts will have
59
00:06:27,420 --> 00:06:30,260
when they step on another inhabited planet?
60
00:06:30,430 --> 00:06:35,230
As enemies, or as gods?
61
00:06:35,260 --> 00:06:36,790
We know from recent history
62
00:06:36,860 --> 00:06:38,630
how primitive people react
63
00:06:38,630 --> 00:06:40,360
in their first meeting
64
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:41,820
with modern technology.
65
00:06:41,820 --> 00:06:43,560
During World War II
66
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,990
US troops deployed to several isolated islands in the South Pacific
67
00:06:47,990 --> 00:06:51,100
to build airfields and military installations.
68
00:06:51,100 --> 00:06:53,620
When the war ended they returned to their homes
69
00:06:53,620 --> 00:06:55,740
and a very strange thing happened.
70
00:06:56,540 --> 00:06:59,830
The natives of these islands, isolated from the rest of the world,
71
00:06:59,830 --> 00:07:02,180
literally lived in the Stone Age,
72
00:07:02,180 --> 00:07:04,750
until the Americans went and left.
73
00:07:04,750 --> 00:07:06,300
Immediately after,
74
00:07:06,340 --> 00:07:09,680
the natives began to make constructions with sheaves and bamboo
75
00:07:09,710 --> 00:07:11,910
that looked like airplanes.
76
00:07:11,910 --> 00:07:14,850
and poor landing surfaces on their islands,
77
00:07:14,850 --> 00:07:17,470
to entice visitors to return.
78
00:07:47,810 --> 00:07:51,970
The strangers brought with them the wonderful treasures from heaven,
79
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,800
tools, fantastic weapons,
80
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,370
celestial machines that have not even dreamed of,
81
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,910
who else but the gods could possess such supreme knowledge?
82
00:08:10,250 --> 00:08:14,410
They did not hunt or fish and yet they never lacked food.
83
00:08:15,540 --> 00:08:19,060
They came from heaven, they must have been gods.
84
00:08:19,650 --> 00:08:22,090
We must entice them to return.
85
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,080
The natives offered sacrifices to fire,
86
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,940
sweeping the sky day and night,
87
00:08:30,380 --> 00:08:33,510
watching and waiting.
88
00:09:01,020 --> 00:09:04,300
Nevertheless, the islanders acquired a new religion.
89
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:09,080
A new cult was born from the meeting of primitive people
90
00:09:09,090 --> 00:09:11,500
with visitors from a highly developed
91
00:09:11,500 --> 00:09:14,140
and technologically superior society.
92
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,100
The Russian scholars Kashanchev and Saitzev
93
00:09:18,100 --> 00:09:22,210
argue that all religions started this way.
94
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,950
In Mexico and South America,
95
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,780
from Egypt to India,
96
00:10:01,830 --> 00:10:05,550
all over the world, people have myths, legends
97
00:10:05,660 --> 00:10:10,440
and religions that revolve around visits by foreign astronauts.
98
00:10:10,810 --> 00:10:14,810
Of course they do not call them "astronauts" but gods,
99
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,580
who came to Earth in admirable celestial vehicles.
100
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,300
We could easily accept these stories as fantastic,
101
00:10:25,300 --> 00:10:28,300
with several reports from people around the world.
102
00:10:39,410 --> 00:10:42,670
Written reports from divine visitors abound.
103
00:10:43,670 --> 00:10:47,020
For example the books of the Tibetan Consor.
104
00:10:47,070 --> 00:10:50,580
The Conservatory consists of more than 1000 volumes
105
00:10:50,780 --> 00:10:54,150
and includes the holy texts of the Lama.
106
00:10:54,560 --> 00:10:56,650
The secret code of the texts,
107
00:10:56,650 --> 00:10:59,680
is the most complex man has ever built.
108
00:11:07,450 --> 00:11:11,660
Only 1/100 of the Consort has been decoded.
109
00:11:18,330 --> 00:11:21,530
The text that emerged, and that we can read today,
110
00:11:21,530 --> 00:11:24,960
is full of references to gods who appeared in heaven,
111
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,630
the bright pearls
112
00:11:26,630 --> 00:11:29,720
and the transparent spheres in which these gods lived.
113
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,400
Once these books are fully decoded,
114
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,780
are going to give more information
115
00:11:34,780 --> 00:11:37,490
for mysterious space visitors.
116
00:11:44,110 --> 00:11:48,460
In India, the wisdom of the Mahabharata demands great respect.
117
00:11:48,460 --> 00:11:52,310
It is the national epic poem, much loved by the people.
118
00:11:52,310 --> 00:11:56,440
Its 80,000 rpm is 6,000 years old.
119
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,790
This is an excerpt from the Mahabharata,
120
00:11:58,790 --> 00:12:03,140
in which we find solid information from gods who came to Earth.
121
00:12:03,140 --> 00:12:06,770
The poems repeatedly speak of "Vimana"
122
00:12:06,770 --> 00:12:09,430
These are vehicles that fly at high altitudes,
123
00:12:09,430 --> 00:12:13,750
using mercury and powerful upward air currents.
124
00:12:13,750 --> 00:12:18,500
This representation of a Vimana was made by Dr. Kazanchev,
125
00:12:18,500 --> 00:12:21,610
according to the description in Macharmarata.
126
00:12:21,610 --> 00:12:23,250
The author of this excerpt,
127
00:12:23,250 --> 00:12:26,460
witnessed what we now call "launch".
128
00:12:26,460 --> 00:12:29,330
Bimar flew away into his Vimana
129
00:12:29,330 --> 00:12:31,330
in a giant ray of light
130
00:12:31,330 --> 00:12:33,090
that looked like the sun
131
00:12:33,090 --> 00:12:36,620
and with a noise similar to the thunder of a storm.
132
00:12:42,250 --> 00:12:46,030
Our search for other elements of visits from other worlds
133
00:12:46,030 --> 00:12:49,200
takes us to Baghdad, the capital of Iraq,
134
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,840
the land between two rivers.
135
00:13:01,700 --> 00:13:05,310
The museum here provides us with many links to the past,
136
00:13:05,690 --> 00:13:08,520
including references written on ceramic inscriptions
137
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,970
at least 5,000 years old.
138
00:13:11,750 --> 00:13:14,700
Their stone pages tell us about mysterious creatures
139
00:13:14,700 --> 00:13:18,800
that came to Earth through an explosion of smoke and noise.
140
00:13:24,370 --> 00:13:28,640
At the turn of the century, 12 ceramic inscriptions were found
141
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,320
On which is written Gilgamesh
142
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,390
in cuneiform.
143
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,850
These are pieces of Gilgamesh.
144
00:13:37,630 --> 00:13:40,580
A myth of creation, in the form of an epic poem,
145
00:13:40,580 --> 00:13:42,170
is written here.
146
00:13:42,170 --> 00:13:45,610
It has striking similarities with the book of Genesis.
147
00:13:45,610 --> 00:13:47,990
although the writers of Gilgamesh lived
148
00:13:47,990 --> 00:13:50,850
2000 years before the authors of the book.
149
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,990
Gilgamesh, the hero of the epic,
150
00:13:53,990 --> 00:13:56,190
he was half god and half man.
151
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,760
The 7 inscriptions describe some incredible journeys.
152
00:13:59,770 --> 00:14:02,520
Enkidu, a friend of our hero,
153
00:14:02,550 --> 00:14:05,000
gives us the first eyewitness testimony
154
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,800
of a space trip in the Stone Age.
155
00:14:08,130 --> 00:14:11,070
After ascending to heaven in a spaceship
156
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,300
for 12 hours, writes:
157
00:14:13,940 --> 00:14:17,260
"Look down at the earth, what do you see?"
158
00:14:17,610 --> 00:14:21,060
"Look at the seas, what do they look like?"
159
00:14:21,060 --> 00:14:23,190
"And the earth was like a millstone,"
160
00:14:23,210 --> 00:14:25,150
"and the sea like a waterhole".
161
00:14:25,290 --> 00:14:28,770
American astronauts used about the same words
162
00:14:28,770 --> 00:14:32,120
to describe their own impressions of the Earth from space.
163
00:14:41,020 --> 00:14:43,170
We fly over the Dead Sea.
164
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,130
Among these forbidden rock formations near Qumran,
165
00:14:54,820 --> 00:14:57,850
two young shepherds searching for their lost goats
166
00:14:57,850 --> 00:14:59,330
they found something completely different.
167
00:14:59,630 --> 00:15:02,220
In these caves in 1947
168
00:15:02,220 --> 00:15:05,400
found the famous "Dead Sea Scrolls".
169
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,280
They were written on leather about 2,000 years ago.
170
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:10,630
The texts of Qumran
171
00:15:10,630 --> 00:15:13,540
they also talk about strange celestial vehicles
172
00:15:13,540 --> 00:15:16,550
and for the sons of paradise who came to Earth.
173
00:15:16,990 --> 00:15:19,180
Their arrival and departure
174
00:15:19,180 --> 00:15:22,030
accompanied by clouds of smoke and fire.
175
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,620
Just over 1,000 such sources
176
00:15:28,620 --> 00:15:30,130
have revealed their secrets.
177
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,030
There are very few scholars working on decoding
178
00:15:33,050 --> 00:15:36,920
of papers on papyrus, bark and clay
179
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,270
collecting dust in museums and libraries.
180
00:15:43,190 --> 00:15:45,480
After all, little has been decoded to date
181
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,440
requires careful study to determine
182
00:15:47,470 --> 00:15:50,090
which exactly confirmed facts it contains.
183
00:15:50,380 --> 00:15:52,090
We must no longer allow ourselves
184
00:15:52,090 --> 00:15:54,320
reject reports of celestial vehicles
185
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,900
and traveler deities as elements of pure imagination.
186
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,670
There is a lesson in the reaction of the South Pacific islanders
187
00:16:00,670 --> 00:16:03,700
in their first experience with white people and planes.
188
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:05,810
If they knew how to write,
189
00:16:05,810 --> 00:16:08,830
surely their impressions would make a wonderful read.
190
00:16:08,830 --> 00:16:11,140
It would be wise on our part to find out which truths
191
00:16:11,140 --> 00:16:12,580
hidden behind legends
192
00:16:12,580 --> 00:16:14,390
and the myths of antiquity
193
00:16:14,390 --> 00:16:15,860
to take them seriously.
194
00:16:15,860 --> 00:16:18,760
A man did just that, 100 years ago.
195
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:24,060
Here on the coasts of Asia Minor in 1863,
196
00:16:24,340 --> 00:16:28,150
a man came looking for the legendary city of Troy.
197
00:16:33,140 --> 00:16:35,830
He found her under this hill.
198
00:16:35,830 --> 00:16:38,280
Eric Schliemann made the decision
199
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,050
to accept the stories of Homer,
200
00:16:40,050 --> 00:16:41,880
the Iliad and the Odyssey,
201
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,340
literally.
202
00:16:44,250 --> 00:16:47,290
"What is this nonsense?" said the other sages of the time.
203
00:16:47,290 --> 00:16:50,400
The stories of Homer were written centuries before Christ
204
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,070
and although they are charming,
205
00:16:52,070 --> 00:16:54,720
we all know it is just poetry.
206
00:16:55,670 --> 00:16:57,830
But Eric Schliemann had faith
207
00:16:57,830 --> 00:16:59,680
in the actual historical site
208
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,680
identified by the blind poet.
209
00:17:02,290 --> 00:17:05,100
And in the end his faith was rewarded.
210
00:17:05,930 --> 00:17:07,600
Following the instructions of the epic
211
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,600
found ancient Troy.
212
00:17:10,110 --> 00:17:12,040
Imagine his pleasure as he gave to his wife
213
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,980
excavated from the royal treasury of Priam.
214
00:17:16,930 --> 00:17:19,940
Imagine his satisfaction when he located Troy
215
00:17:19,940 --> 00:17:22,500
right where Homer said he was.
216
00:17:23,180 --> 00:17:26,070
Slieman was ridiculed in his day.
217
00:17:26,070 --> 00:17:27,830
Today he is considered one of them
218
00:17:27,830 --> 00:17:30,880
greatest archaeologists of all time.
219
00:17:33,500 --> 00:17:35,500
Following his example,
220
00:17:35,500 --> 00:17:38,540
let's literally take another important text.
221
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,700
The Bible says:
222
00:17:42,700 --> 00:17:45,440
"And then the Lord brought Sodom and Gomorrah"
223
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,270
"Sulfur rain and fire". What exactly happened?
224
00:17:48,270 --> 00:17:51,480
Definitely the 19th chapter of the first book of Moses
225
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,650
describes a dramatic event.
226
00:17:53,650 --> 00:17:55,400
God sends his messengers to warn
227
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,600
Lot and his family for the coming disaster.
228
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,430
The angels said to Lot, "Run to escape,"
229
00:18:00,430 --> 00:18:02,970
"Do not look back and do not stop anywhere in the valley,"
230
00:18:02,970 --> 00:18:05,950
"run to the hills otherwise you will be exhausted".
231
00:18:05,950 --> 00:18:09,400
Today of course we know that a mountain protects
232
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,020
from radioactivity.
233
00:18:11,020 --> 00:18:14,640
The messengers insisted on leaving the city immediately
234
00:18:15,260 --> 00:18:17,810
We wonder if they had the knowledge or not
235
00:18:17,810 --> 00:18:19,520
of an atomic explosion.
236
00:18:35,060 --> 00:18:36,670
One thing is certain,
237
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,090
the thriving cities of Sodom and Gomorrah
238
00:18:39,090 --> 00:18:42,580
they were leveled, destroyed with a single blow.
239
00:18:42,580 --> 00:18:45,540
The kind of force that can do that kind of damage
240
00:18:45,540 --> 00:18:48,580
it was not owned by people at that time.
241
00:18:48,580 --> 00:18:51,150
The disaster report ends:
242
00:18:51,150 --> 00:18:53,300
"... and looks down and observes"
243
00:18:53,300 --> 00:18:55,710
"and behold the smoke of the earth"
244
00:18:55,710 --> 00:18:58,050
"spreads like the smoke of a furnace."
245
00:19:02,260 --> 00:19:04,740
Mount Horeb, in the region of Sinai,
246
00:19:04,740 --> 00:19:06,800
has a height of only 6,500 meters
247
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,270
over the sea.
248
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,000
Here Moses received the 10 commandments.
249
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,880
Here, too, the Lord gave him the plans for the ark of the covenant.
250
00:19:17,830 --> 00:19:20,780
In chapter 25 of the 2nd book of Moses
251
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,160
gives instructions for the erection of this magnificent structure:
252
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,430
"... and make an ark of acacia wood"
253
00:19:26,430 --> 00:19:28,810
"2 and 1/2 bar length,"
254
00:19:28,810 --> 00:19:30,780
"1 and 1/2 width bars"
255
00:19:30,780 --> 00:19:32,460
"and 1 and 1/2 height bars".
256
00:19:32,460 --> 00:19:34,880
"and overlay it with pure gold,"
257
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,470
"you will invest it internally and externally"
258
00:19:37,470 --> 00:19:40,460
"and you will make a cornice of gold around it".
259
00:19:40,460 --> 00:19:43,390
The master was accurate enough to build the ark.
260
00:19:43,390 --> 00:19:45,590
He warned no one to approach the construction,
261
00:19:45,590 --> 00:19:47,520
was a deadly danger.
262
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,780
and although he himself would speak to Moses
263
00:19:49,790 --> 00:19:52,020
through the cover, it would not be visible.
264
00:19:52,020 --> 00:19:55,380
The baby had to be provided with special shoes and clothes
265
00:19:55,380 --> 00:19:56,970
to protect his assistants.
266
00:19:56,970 --> 00:20:00,060
Shoes and clothes that would adequately insulate them.
267
00:20:00,060 --> 00:20:02,000
If we were to make a copy of the ark today,
268
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,420
according to the instructions of Moses,
269
00:20:04,420 --> 00:20:07,810
we would get a capacitor charged with a few hundred volts.
270
00:20:07,810 --> 00:20:10,480
One side of the plates is negatively charged,
271
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,010
and the other, with a positive charge.
272
00:20:13,010 --> 00:20:16,590
The Bible says that the ark gave off sparks and bright flashes
273
00:20:16,590 --> 00:20:18,630
like this old painting.
274
00:20:18,630 --> 00:20:21,690
Indeed, when Moses finished building the ark,
275
00:20:21,690 --> 00:20:23,920
the Lord would speak to him through her.
276
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,700
Gold leaf could act as speakers
277
00:20:27,700 --> 00:20:30,660
reproducing the voice of the Lord from afar?
278
00:20:33,330 --> 00:20:34,890
In 1961,
279
00:20:34,890 --> 00:20:36,980
a group of students from Minnesota,
280
00:20:36,980 --> 00:20:38,530
they took history so seriously
281
00:20:38,530 --> 00:20:40,160
so they built an ark
282
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,480
according to the instructions of Moses.
283
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:43,840
But their teacher
284
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,660
was forced to destroy the model
285
00:20:45,660 --> 00:20:49,070
due to the dangerously high electrical charge it developed.
286
00:20:52,740 --> 00:20:54,760
Seen from the 20th century,
287
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,990
the Bible is full of amazing references,
288
00:20:56,990 --> 00:20:58,250
like that of Moses.
289
00:20:58,250 --> 00:21:01,420
Equally amazing is the rise of Elijah,
290
00:21:01,420 --> 00:21:03,520
a chronicle of pure imagination,
291
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:04,710
unless
292
00:21:04,710 --> 00:21:06,850
the narrator was a witness of one
293
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,940
unprecedented fact.
294
00:21:08,940 --> 00:21:11,790
A fiery chariot with flaming horses
295
00:21:11,790 --> 00:21:14,730
came from heaven to take Elijah away.
296
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,580
Another shocking incident in the book of books.
297
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,660
Many artists have represented history
298
00:21:23,660 --> 00:21:25,340
of the prophet Ezekiel.
299
00:21:25,340 --> 00:21:27,870
The 13th year, the 4th month,
300
00:21:27,870 --> 00:21:30,890
on the 5th day of the month, the heavens opened.
301
00:21:30,890 --> 00:21:32,680
"I looked and behold!"
302
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:34,890
"Stormy wind blew from the north"
303
00:21:34,890 --> 00:21:37,580
"and a big cloud that had whiteness around it"
304
00:21:37,580 --> 00:21:40,010
"and fire that radiated forward constantly"
305
00:21:40,010 --> 00:21:42,660
"and in the middle of the fire there was"
306
00:21:42,660 --> 00:21:44,190
"shiny bronze"
307
00:21:44,190 --> 00:21:47,510
"and in the middle of it looked like living creatures"
308
00:21:47,510 --> 00:21:49,120
"and that was their form"
309
00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:50,760
"they were in the form of people,"
310
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,270
"but each one had four faces"
311
00:21:52,270 --> 00:21:54,200
"and each one had four wings"
312
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,250
"and as for the form of their faces,"
313
00:21:56,250 --> 00:21:58,230
"each had in front of him the form of a man,"
314
00:21:58,230 --> 00:21:59,710
"right lion figure,"
315
00:21:59,710 --> 00:22:01,440
"ox left"
316
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,480
"and eagle in the back".
317
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,040
Ezekiel could describe
318
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,200
visitors landing from space
319
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:08,780
in very different terms?
320
00:22:09,730 --> 00:22:11,190
"Then I looked"
321
00:22:11,190 --> 00:22:13,030
"and I saw a wheel on the ground"
322
00:22:13,030 --> 00:22:14,660
"next to living creatures".
323
00:22:14,660 --> 00:22:16,070
"One for each".
324
00:22:16,070 --> 00:22:18,200
"It was like the shimmer of a chrysolite."
325
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,020
"Their construction looked like it was"
326
00:22:20,020 --> 00:22:21,900
"one wheel inside one wheel"
327
00:22:21,900 --> 00:22:23,900
"and when he moved, he went to each one"
328
00:22:23,900 --> 00:22:26,490
"from the 4 directions without turning as it moves".
329
00:22:26,490 --> 00:22:29,420
"The 4 wheels had wheels and had spokes"
330
00:22:29,420 --> 00:22:31,820
"and the rims were full of ice all around."
331
00:22:31,820 --> 00:22:34,960
Were these the engines of a spaceship?
332
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:36,500
"... and when he was moving,"
333
00:22:36,500 --> 00:22:38,050
"I heard the sound of their wings"
334
00:22:38,050 --> 00:22:40,410
"like the thunder of the Almighty"
335
00:22:40,410 --> 00:22:42,150
"and a sound like a pipe"
336
00:22:42,150 --> 00:22:44,150
"like the sound of the crowd".
337
00:22:45,170 --> 00:22:48,400
The prophet witnessed a spectacular image.
338
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:49,740
How much it looks like
339
00:22:49,740 --> 00:22:52,490
by launching a modern rocket
340
00:22:52,490 --> 00:22:55,420
even to the scream of his engines at firing.
341
00:22:56,990 --> 00:22:59,440
These images speak for themselves.
342
00:23:00,780 --> 00:23:02,790
This is how the early illustrators presented themselves
343
00:23:02,940 --> 00:23:05,170
the angels of promise.
344
00:23:05,170 --> 00:23:08,730
A creature with metal legs and landing discs.
345
00:23:08,730 --> 00:23:11,220
Doesn't that sound familiar to you?
346
00:23:11,220 --> 00:23:14,140
Look carefully to the right of the image.
347
00:23:18,590 --> 00:23:20,710
This is Desani Monastery
348
00:23:20,710 --> 00:23:24,170
in the peaceful countryside of southern Yugoslavia.
349
00:23:43,020 --> 00:23:44,940
The church was decorated with frescoes
350
00:23:44,940 --> 00:23:47,870
in the middle of the 14th century.
351
00:23:47,870 --> 00:23:50,430
Recently created the query:
352
00:23:50,430 --> 00:23:53,700
Do Descani's frescoes represent spaceships?
353
00:24:00,100 --> 00:24:03,350
Yes, they look a bit like spaceships.
354
00:24:04,980 --> 00:24:07,920
On the first ship, we see a seated man
355
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,450
by hand on a lever.
356
00:24:09,450 --> 00:24:12,220
Definitely notices the second spaceship.
357
00:24:12,220 --> 00:24:14,920
Please note the aerodynamic shape,
358
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:16,920
jet jets are clearly visible.
359
00:24:24,180 --> 00:24:28,050
Observers protect their faces with their hands.
360
00:24:28,050 --> 00:24:30,050
They are obviously terrified.
361
00:24:36,220 --> 00:24:38,570
There is no explanation for the origin
362
00:24:38,570 --> 00:24:41,360
or the purpose of these imaginary images.
363
00:24:41,360 --> 00:24:43,560
Nor for prehistoric stone paintings
364
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,280
discovered in the Balkans
365
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,060
near Brescia in Italy.
366
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,260
They are images of foreign gods
367
00:24:52,260 --> 00:24:54,920
in bulky primitive one-piece suits.
368
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,540
Their helmets appear to have antennas.
369
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:25,710
Constantinople,
370
00:25:25,710 --> 00:25:27,770
the city in golden horn.
371
00:25:27,770 --> 00:25:30,460
Here is the palace of Topkapi.
372
00:25:30,460 --> 00:25:33,290
A strange collection of maps is kept here,
373
00:25:33,290 --> 00:25:35,690
found to the east by the Turkish admiral
374
00:25:35,690 --> 00:25:38,690
Peary Rice, 18th century.
375
00:25:38,690 --> 00:25:40,580
The oldest of these maps is dated
376
00:25:40,580 --> 00:25:42,850
in the 1st century AD.
377
00:25:42,850 --> 00:25:46,300
They are probably copies of much older maps.
378
00:25:46,300 --> 00:25:50,740
The decoration with ships and windmills is from a later period.
379
00:25:50,740 --> 00:25:52,480
Here is one of them.
380
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,860
It shows part of Europe and Africa
381
00:25:54,860 --> 00:25:57,940
as well as Central and South America.
382
00:25:57,940 --> 00:26:00,270
Imagine ourselves astronauts
383
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,320
in a space capsule, in orbit
384
00:26:02,330 --> 00:26:03,720
high above Cairo.
385
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,180
We would see the Earth with this arrangement of continents.
386
00:26:07,180 --> 00:26:09,800
The amazing maps of Peary Rice
387
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,710
is that they show exactly what we see
388
00:26:12,710 --> 00:26:14,840
from a single point in space,
389
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,680
high above Cairo.
390
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,310
Something else remarkable,
391
00:26:18,310 --> 00:26:20,200
This map shows the area that is still
392
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,030
unexplored to date,
393
00:26:22,030 --> 00:26:23,940
Antarctica, in fact
394
00:26:23,940 --> 00:26:27,130
the existence of Antarctica, as a continent,
395
00:26:27,130 --> 00:26:30,270
became known only in the 19th century.
396
00:26:40,030 --> 00:26:43,640
However, this map dates back to 1532.
397
00:26:45,490 --> 00:26:48,200
We can only conclude that these ancient diagrams
398
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,370
represent what one would see
399
00:26:50,370 --> 00:26:52,950
at a great distance from the Earth.
400
00:27:38,530 --> 00:27:39,630
Cairo,
401
00:27:39,630 --> 00:27:42,580
a city of 3,000,000 inhabitants on the Nile
402
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,220
19 km from Cairo is Giza,
403
00:28:15,220 --> 00:28:19,590
The location of the most enigmatic constructions of humanity
404
00:28:19,590 --> 00:28:21,590
of the pyramids.
405
00:28:25,860 --> 00:28:28,760
The surface of the base of the pyramid of Cheops
406
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,840
is about 53 acres.
407
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:36,580
A small town of 50 houses would fit comfortably in the same space.
408
00:28:36,580 --> 00:28:41,850
When completed, the pyramid was 145 meters high.
409
00:28:41,850 --> 00:28:46,850
It has lost only 9.75 meters from its original height.
410
00:28:46,850 --> 00:28:49,620
Passages lead inside.
411
00:28:50,790 --> 00:28:55,510
The total weight of the pyramid is 6,500,000 tons,
412
00:28:55,510 --> 00:28:59,030
about the weight of 65,000 locomotives.
413
00:28:59,030 --> 00:29:02,290
2,300,000 cobblestones
414
00:29:02,290 --> 00:29:05,810
were used to build the 7th wonder of the world.
415
00:29:05,810 --> 00:29:10,080
Each of them weighs 2.5 tons.
416
00:29:12,540 --> 00:29:15,340
These stone masses were transported from a quarry
417
00:29:15,340 --> 00:29:19,280
on Mount Macadam, on the far shores of the Nile,
418
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,390
at a time when people did not even have cranes
419
00:29:22,390 --> 00:29:23,710
but not trucks either.
420
00:29:24,940 --> 00:29:28,040
How: but of course with wooden rollers.
421
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:29,350
And yet not!
422
00:29:29,350 --> 00:29:31,160
In those days, as today,
423
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,660
only palm trees stood in the area,
424
00:29:33,660 --> 00:29:34,990
a soft wood,
425
00:29:34,990 --> 00:29:37,990
whose fruit was necessary for the food of the workers
426
00:29:37,990 --> 00:29:41,910
And how the workers managed to keep the colossal stones
427
00:29:41,910 --> 00:29:44,460
at a height of over 120 meters?
428
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,220
Let's look at the numbers that follow as sizes.
429
00:29:49,220 --> 00:29:52,070
20,000 workers with a strict schedule
430
00:29:52,070 --> 00:29:54,800
to pull and place 10 stones a day,
431
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,020
it would take 664 years,
432
00:29:58,020 --> 00:30:01,950
or over 3 generations to build a pyramid.
433
00:30:01,950 --> 00:30:05,760
So they could not be built in the time of a Pharaoh as his tomb.
434
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,990
If you multiply the height of the pyramid of Cheops by 1,000,000
435
00:30:09,990 --> 00:30:14,170
is approximately equal to the Earth-Sun distance.
436
00:30:14,170 --> 00:30:15,840
Simple coincidence?
437
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,310
The longitude of the center of the pyramid of Cheops
438
00:30:19,310 --> 00:30:21,200
separates continents and oceans
439
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:22,970
in two equal parts.
440
00:30:22,970 --> 00:30:24,520
And this simple coincidence?
441
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,220
At the end of the 16th century the Dutch mathematician Ludolf,
442
00:30:28,220 --> 00:30:29,780
discovered the number π (π = 3,14159 ...),
443
00:30:29,780 --> 00:30:33,040
with which we calculate the circumference of the circle.
444
00:30:33,060 --> 00:30:36,300
If we divide the perimeter of the base of the pyramid of Cheops
445
00:30:36,300 --> 00:30:39,180
with its double height, we find expensive
446
00:30:39,180 --> 00:30:41,310
the number π, which Ludolph
447
00:30:41,310 --> 00:30:43,840
discovered just 4,000 years later.
448
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,840
Could it still be a mere coincidence?
449
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,600
It is almost impossible to consider the vast knowledge
450
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,300
mathematics and astronomy used
451
00:30:51,300 --> 00:30:54,570
in the construction of the pyramids, as a simple coincidence.
452
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:21,570
This is the pyramid of Chefrin
453
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:25,530
In 1967, a group of scholars
454
00:31:25,530 --> 00:31:28,510
scanned the inside of the pyramid with radar,
455
00:31:28,510 --> 00:31:31,240
hoping to find hidden cavities,
456
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,310
but to no avail.
457
00:31:34,310 --> 00:31:38,150
Their efforts did not enlighten the construction.
458
00:31:38,150 --> 00:31:40,530
An old Egyptian proverb says:
459
00:31:40,530 --> 00:31:45,130
"People are afraid of time, but time is only afraid of the pyramids."
460
00:31:50,180 --> 00:31:53,550
The sphinx, symbol of the puzzle.
461
00:31:53,550 --> 00:31:55,670
The eternal enigma.
462
00:31:55,670 --> 00:31:57,410
With a height of 19.80 meters
463
00:31:57,410 --> 00:31:59,730
length 72 meters
464
00:31:59,730 --> 00:32:01,730
and unknown age.
465
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,290
The Nile Valley near Luxor.
466
00:32:18,290 --> 00:32:21,900
A narrow strip of fertile land in the middle of the desert.
467
00:32:44,060 --> 00:32:47,730
In front of us stretches the Valley of the Kings.
468
00:32:47,730 --> 00:32:51,890
This valley was the royal cemetery of the Pharaohs.
469
00:32:51,890 --> 00:32:53,890
Behind the cavernous entrances
470
00:32:53,890 --> 00:32:56,460
there are steep stairs and endless hidden passages
471
00:32:56,460 --> 00:32:58,660
leading to the stone crypts.
472
00:32:58,660 --> 00:33:00,890
The crypt of King Seth of B.
473
00:33:00,890 --> 00:33:03,650
is 100 meters deep inside.
474
00:33:03,650 --> 00:33:05,200
His burial chamber,
475
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,880
the rectangular columns and the decorative reliefs.
476
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:10,610
are carved directly on the rock.
477
00:33:10,610 --> 00:33:12,170
And here as in other mounds,
478
00:33:12,170 --> 00:33:14,540
we find amazing murals.
479
00:33:14,540 --> 00:33:17,000
Achieved without sunlight.
480
00:33:29,530 --> 00:33:32,620
Because the domes have no traces of soot,
481
00:33:32,620 --> 00:33:35,890
No torches or oil lamps were used.
482
00:33:40,010 --> 00:33:42,610
Scholars have suggested that these ancient artists
483
00:33:42,610 --> 00:33:44,680
they brought sunlight into the crypt
484
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,610
with a complex system of mirrors.
485
00:33:47,610 --> 00:33:49,940
The silver mirrors of that time
486
00:33:49,940 --> 00:33:52,460
reflect only 45% of the light.
487
00:33:52,460 --> 00:33:55,150
That's why they needed so many mirrors.
488
00:34:05,350 --> 00:34:08,240
All these creatures have symbolic references
489
00:34:08,240 --> 00:34:12,540
in their relation to the heavens, to the universe.
490
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,030
Tutankhamun Tomb is the smallest
491
00:34:43,030 --> 00:34:45,810
but the most famous in this royal burial ground.
492
00:34:48,190 --> 00:34:51,600
Everyone else has been raped over the centuries.
493
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,080
Only he kept his treasures
494
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:55,490
until today.
495
00:34:56,790 --> 00:35:00,440
Here lies the 19-year-old king-god
496
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,820
waiting for the day of his resurrection from the dead.
497
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:11,020
This corpse was embalmed at least 3,000 years ago.
498
00:35:11,020 --> 00:35:13,770
He prepared for a natural ascent from the dead.
499
00:35:13,770 --> 00:35:15,220
The mummies were placed in the most
500
00:35:15,220 --> 00:35:17,870
safe burial place they could design.
501
00:35:17,870 --> 00:35:19,360
Until recently,
502
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,430
we believed that embalming was a religious custom.
503
00:35:22,430 --> 00:35:24,280
The new theory says that
504
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,710
embalming is a skillful imitation
505
00:35:26,710 --> 00:35:28,930
natural method of maintenance,
506
00:35:28,930 --> 00:35:32,000
recruited by alien visitors,
507
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,110
which was unsuccessfully attempted by the Egyptians.
508
00:36:31,860 --> 00:36:35,320
The enigmatic statue of Ramses B.
509
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,960
has been destroyed by wars,
510
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,200
with an age of 3,000 years,
511
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,020
carved from a single stone,
512
00:36:42,020 --> 00:36:44,360
weighs 102,000 tons.
513
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,560
they brought it from the Macadam quarry.
514
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,740
595 km away.
515
00:36:48,740 --> 00:36:50,740
Nobody knows how.
516
00:36:59,510 --> 00:37:01,880
The colossi of Memnon.
517
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,390
3,500 years old,
518
00:37:04,390 --> 00:37:06,280
height 16 meters,
519
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,450
carved from solid sandstone,
520
00:37:08,450 --> 00:37:11,090
weighing 1,000 tons each.
521
00:37:13,090 --> 00:37:16,290
And they came from the mountains of Macadam,
522
00:37:16,290 --> 00:37:19,200
no one knows how.
523
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,840
There is a modern example of enormous mechanical effort
524
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,820
required to move corresponding stone sculptures
525
00:37:25,820 --> 00:37:28,730
for a distance of 183 meters only.
526
00:37:30,060 --> 00:37:34,170
The temple of Abu Simbel and its monuments on the banks of the Nile
527
00:37:34,170 --> 00:37:36,170
they had to make room for the Aswan Dam.
528
00:37:37,430 --> 00:37:40,540
3,000 years after the construction of the temple,
529
00:37:40,540 --> 00:37:44,820
it took a lot of talent and resources from almost 100 nations
530
00:37:44,820 --> 00:37:48,060
to solve the problem of its relocation.
531
00:37:48,060 --> 00:37:50,820
The most modern equipment was used
532
00:37:50,820 --> 00:37:55,500
Cranes reinforced with hydraulic presses,
533
00:37:55,500 --> 00:37:58,660
300,000 accurate measurements were made
534
00:37:58,660 --> 00:38:00,720
because the statues of Abu and Simbel
535
00:38:00,720 --> 00:38:02,880
they had to be sawn into pieces.
536
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,540
A job that lasted three years.
537
00:38:08,710 --> 00:38:10,900
Modern architecture faced
538
00:38:10,900 --> 00:38:14,640
with a business of unprecedented proportions.
539
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:19,500
How did the Egyptians deal with the same problem without these techniques,
540
00:38:19,500 --> 00:38:21,980
30 centuries ago?
541
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:53,850
The obelisk of Luxor,
542
00:38:53,850 --> 00:38:56,440
3,500 years old,
543
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:58,530
26 meters high,
544
00:38:58,530 --> 00:39:01,890
carved from a piece of red granite.
545
00:39:01,890 --> 00:39:06,740
they brought it from Aswan, 298 kilometers away.
546
00:39:06,740 --> 00:39:10,330
The obelisk of Karnak is 29.30 meters high
547
00:39:10,330 --> 00:39:13,260
making it the largest column in Egypt.
548
00:39:13,260 --> 00:39:16,420
It weighs 400 tons.
549
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,710
The half-finished obelisk lying in Aswan,
550
00:39:29,710 --> 00:39:32,900
with a length of over 141 meters,
551
00:39:32,900 --> 00:39:35,620
is the largest in the world.
552
00:39:35,620 --> 00:39:40,260
102,000 dizzying tons of red granite.
553
00:39:42,240 --> 00:39:44,260
No crane in the world could lift it,
554
00:39:44,260 --> 00:39:46,260
let alone move him.
555
00:39:53,420 --> 00:39:55,970
The famous Stone of the South
556
00:39:55,970 --> 00:39:59,880
is the largest stone cut and transported by man.
557
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:02,680
It weighs 2,000 tons.
558
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,220
It was intended for the temple of Balbek in Lebanon,
559
00:40:07,220 --> 00:40:09,840
2 hours drive from Beirut.
560
00:40:32,980 --> 00:40:37,300
The temples were built by Greeks and Romans in antiquity,
561
00:40:37,300 --> 00:40:41,120
Others were built on a skillfully constructed foundation,
562
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,760
consisting of the largest stone volumes
563
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:46,940
which were cut and placed on the ground.
564
00:40:46,940 --> 00:40:50,680
The largest of these stones is 20 meters long,
565
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:52,490
4.5 meters high
566
00:40:52,490 --> 00:40:54,700
and more than 3.5 meters wide,
567
00:40:54,700 --> 00:40:57,630
weighing almost 2,000 tons.
568
00:40:57,630 --> 00:41:01,570
This plateau is the ancient one on which the temples were built.
569
00:41:02,830 --> 00:41:06,430
Archaeologists still have no explanation for the plateau.
570
00:41:06,430 --> 00:41:09,070
nor for the transport of its materials.
571
00:41:09,070 --> 00:41:11,810
The Russian researcher Agrest,
572
00:41:11,810 --> 00:41:14,780
claims that it was used as a landing site
573
00:41:14,780 --> 00:41:17,870
travelers from space.
574
00:41:36,720 --> 00:41:40,250
Our next stop is deep southwest.
575
00:41:40,250 --> 00:41:43,830
the Janet oasis in the middle of the Sahara,
576
00:41:43,830 --> 00:41:46,680
19,000 kilometers south of Algiers.
577
00:42:13,950 --> 00:42:17,620
From Janet we go to the plateau of Tassili.
578
00:42:27,050 --> 00:42:29,570
The ground looks like the surface of the Moon,
579
00:42:29,570 --> 00:42:33,880
Bare reddish rock ledges in sandy desert.
580
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,130
The Sahara was once a fertile region.
581
00:42:36,130 --> 00:42:41,360
15,000 years ago, it was the most densely populated part of the Earth.
582
00:42:43,220 --> 00:42:46,870
The mountain views have been eaten up by the sun and the wind.
583
00:42:46,870 --> 00:42:50,060
The icy north winds penetrate the gorges
584
00:42:50,060 --> 00:42:53,930
2,000 meters above the sunburnt desert floor.
585
00:43:02,460 --> 00:43:06,320
Thousands of murals were found here in Tassini.
586
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:10,860
The oldest were built between 8,000-10,000 BC.
587
00:43:10,860 --> 00:43:13,100
during the Neolithic period.
588
00:43:13,100 --> 00:43:17,140
The artists were hunters and farmers.
589
00:43:17,140 --> 00:43:19,910
The themes were always the same:
590
00:43:19,910 --> 00:43:24,960
animals, hunters and ...
591
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:29,230
what is this strange creature with the bulbous head?
592
00:43:29,230 --> 00:43:31,120
What are the figures at his feet
593
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:33,640
with helmets similar to modern divers
594
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:35,960
or astronauts.
595
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:39,740
No eyes, no nose, no mouth
596
00:43:39,740 --> 00:43:42,910
only small holes around small openings.
597
00:43:56,300 --> 00:43:58,060
A body that seems to be hovering
598
00:43:58,060 --> 00:44:00,120
without effort in the vacuum.
599
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,120
In vacuum;
600
00:44:08,270 --> 00:44:09,440
The enigma here is
601
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:11,440
that our prehistoric artists
602
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,050
presented the people and animals around them
603
00:44:14,050 --> 00:44:17,770
with great fidelity in size and proportions.
604
00:44:17,770 --> 00:44:19,960
Only these creatures with inflated heads,
605
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:23,670
look disproportionate, why?
606
00:44:23,670 --> 00:44:26,430
Maybe because the artists did not see them clearly
607
00:44:26,430 --> 00:44:28,430
or for quite some time?
608
00:44:31,230 --> 00:44:33,990
For 6 days we travel ahead
609
00:44:33,990 --> 00:44:38,440
We slept under the starry bright sky of the desert.
610
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,440
We are curious to learn as much as we can
611
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,310
for the fascinating world around us.
612
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:49,440
Is this a sketch of a space unit?
613
00:44:56,180 --> 00:44:57,920
What is this knob?
614
00:44:57,920 --> 00:44:59,920
and the figure that stands out?
615
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:07,720
And here they are again.
616
00:45:07,720 --> 00:45:10,000
Unreal floating creatures.
617
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:11,810
Their heads fuzzy,
618
00:45:11,810 --> 00:45:13,840
wearing light colored costumes.
619
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,620
Could they have dressed for space travel?
620
00:45:16,620 --> 00:45:19,360
To be sure, there are other explanations,
621
00:45:58,410 --> 00:45:59,920
With our last drinking water
622
00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:04,140
we wet the rocks to display the ancient paintings.
623
00:46:04,140 --> 00:46:05,790
Now we can see the figures
624
00:46:05,790 --> 00:46:07,540
with the strange head equipment,
625
00:46:07,540 --> 00:46:10,080
bodysuits with reinforced joints.
626
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,050
After 10,000 years
627
00:46:19,050 --> 00:46:21,790
the contours have faded,
628
00:46:21,790 --> 00:46:24,920
the colors are just a reference,
629
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,550
down to the last detail.
630
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,800
Henri Lot, French archaeologist,
631
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:42,170
found the image of a giant 5.80 meters
632
00:46:42,170 --> 00:46:44,170
on this steep curved wall,
633
00:46:44,170 --> 00:46:46,260
protected by a rocky cornice.
634
00:46:46,260 --> 00:46:49,710
They called him "The Great God Mars"
635
00:47:01,690 --> 00:47:05,030
Henry Lot did not know about astronauts,
636
00:47:05,030 --> 00:47:06,640
but we know.
637
00:47:35,700 --> 00:47:38,280
Beneath us lies the darkest Africa,
638
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,830
the bushy area of southern Rhodesia.
639
00:47:47,090 --> 00:47:50,280
And finally the ruins of Zimbabwe,
640
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:52,800
a forgotten city of the past.
641
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:55,950
Nobody knows for whom they built it.
642
00:47:55,950 --> 00:47:59,370
The temple was built of brick granite stones,
643
00:47:59,370 --> 00:48:01,080
all alike,
644
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,080
as if they were made in a factory.
645
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:07,600
20,000 tons of own building blocks,
646
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:10,200
were built at a height of over 9 meters,
647
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:11,620
to form walls
648
00:48:11,620 --> 00:48:15,280
standing for thousands of years.
649
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,800
Which builders carved and built these stones
650
00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:19,800
with such astonishing accuracy?
651
00:48:20,490 --> 00:48:22,820
They were the ancestors of the Bushmen,
652
00:48:22,820 --> 00:48:25,860
who lived in clusters around the ruins?
653
00:48:25,860 --> 00:48:29,370
Is it a visiting tribe of excellent builders?
654
00:49:02,390 --> 00:49:03,900
Mexico,
655
00:49:03,900 --> 00:49:06,710
a land that the gods considered their home.
656
00:49:18,980 --> 00:49:22,200
We visit the national museum.
657
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:40,070
Here we find the huge Aztec calendar stone.
658
00:49:40,070 --> 00:49:43,110
It has a size of over 3.30 meters
659
00:49:43,110 --> 00:49:46,180
and weighs 24 tons.
660
00:49:46,180 --> 00:49:48,510
It was originally painted,
661
00:49:48,510 --> 00:49:51,270
and stood in front of the temple of the sun god.
662
00:49:52,430 --> 00:49:57,030
Standard symbols express the results of astronomical observations,
663
00:49:57,030 --> 00:49:59,550
whose accuracy is astonishing.
664
00:50:00,550 --> 00:50:04,220
The Aztecs calculated their year from the Sun and the Moon
665
00:50:04,220 --> 00:50:06,110
and pulled out a period consisting of
666
00:50:06,110 --> 00:50:09,040
365.25 days.
667
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:11,340
They reached this exact number
668
00:50:11,340 --> 00:50:14,760
without telescopes and mathematical instruments.
669
00:50:16,550 --> 00:50:20,850
Could their knowledge come from extraterrestrial sources?
670
00:50:49,570 --> 00:50:52,310
This small object is considered insignificant,
671
00:50:52,310 --> 00:50:53,760
unless we observe it with the naked eye
672
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:55,760
a generation recently acclimatized
673
00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:57,760
in the world of outer space.
674
00:51:05,890 --> 00:51:07,450
Hidden under this hill
675
00:51:07,450 --> 00:51:09,830
is another wonder of the world.
676
00:51:09,830 --> 00:51:11,470
The pyramid of Selloula.
677
00:51:11,470 --> 00:51:15,530
The largest man-made structure.
678
00:51:15,530 --> 00:51:18,280
It took 6 centuries to complete.
679
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:22,320
The base has dimensions of 300 by 350 meters.
680
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:25,130
It has a height of 54 meters.
681
00:51:25,130 --> 00:51:29,910
The pyramid of Selloula has a volume of over 2,300,000 m³.
682
00:51:29,910 --> 00:51:33,090
Compared to it, the pyramid of Cheops is smaller
683
00:51:33,090 --> 00:51:35,530
by 380,000 cubic meters.
684
00:51:38,670 --> 00:51:40,740
In the 16th century
685
00:51:40,740 --> 00:51:43,350
the Spaniards built the church on top of it.
686
00:51:48,930 --> 00:51:52,850
Systematic excavations began only in this century.
687
00:51:52,850 --> 00:51:55,300
19 kilometers of underground passages
688
00:51:55,300 --> 00:51:57,760
have been discovered to date
689
00:51:57,760 --> 00:52:00,640
their purpose remains elusive.
690
00:52:10,240 --> 00:52:11,800
The shape of the pyramid
691
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,850
is common to many distant cultures.
692
00:52:14,850 --> 00:52:16,510
There could be a link between them
693
00:52:16,510 --> 00:52:18,510
which is still unknown to us?
694
00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:31,500
Teotihuacan,
695
00:52:31,500 --> 00:52:35,560
a vast expanse of ruins in Central America.
696
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:38,450
It is an hour's drive from Mexico City
697
00:52:38,450 --> 00:52:42,080
at an altitude of 1680 meters.
698
00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:46,330
Only a small part of the ruins has been excavated.
699
00:52:46,330 --> 00:52:48,770
The word Teotihuacan means:
700
00:52:48,770 --> 00:52:50,770
"where the gods live".
701
00:52:55,240 --> 00:52:59,360
The city of the gods is dominated by the pyramid of the Sun.
702
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:04,800
Its base has dimensions of 230 by 220 meters
703
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:08,290
and reaches a height of 67 meters.
704
00:53:08,290 --> 00:53:13,000
It forms a small mountain weighing 2,500,000 tons.
705
00:54:08,100 --> 00:54:11,190
The identity of the builders of Teotihuacan
706
00:54:11,190 --> 00:54:14,440
and the age of the structures inhabited by the gods
707
00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:18,830
is shrouded in mystery, there are other clues.
708
00:54:18,830 --> 00:54:21,240
1,600 meters south of the pyramids,
709
00:54:21,240 --> 00:54:23,540
is the temple of Quatzacottl,
710
00:54:23,540 --> 00:54:25,520
of the large winged reptile.
711
00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:29,260
Legend has it that he was a light-bearded man
712
00:54:29,260 --> 00:54:31,050
that came from the stars.
713
00:54:31,050 --> 00:54:33,630
Teach people law, arts,
714
00:54:33,630 --> 00:54:36,180
the cultivation of corn and cotton.
715
00:54:36,180 --> 00:54:38,390
We find the symbol of everywhere,
716
00:54:38,390 --> 00:54:41,010
the winged head of the reptile.
717
00:54:41,010 --> 00:54:43,790
When Quajacottl finished his mission on Earth,
718
00:54:43,790 --> 00:54:46,000
turned to the morning star
719
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:48,000
promising to return to Earth.
720
00:54:51,030 --> 00:54:52,580
The ruins of Tula
721
00:54:52,580 --> 00:54:54,580
They are about 32 miles from Teotihuacan.
722
00:54:56,570 --> 00:54:58,560
According to an old legend,
723
00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:03,970
the cities of Tula, Komba, Chichen Itza and Usnal
724
00:55:03,970 --> 00:55:06,880
was associated with a "hanging sky scale".
725
00:55:22,230 --> 00:55:25,310
These monumental sculptures have silent purposes,
726
00:55:25,310 --> 00:55:27,310
guardians of the mystery.
727
00:55:29,070 --> 00:55:31,110
They are warriors in similar costumes
728
00:55:31,110 --> 00:55:33,110
and unusual helmets.
729
00:55:34,220 --> 00:55:39,350
They carry a kind of box on their chest.
730
00:55:39,350 --> 00:55:41,510
The tools or controls they hold
731
00:55:41,530 --> 00:55:45,030
in their hands, are unknown.
732
00:55:45,030 --> 00:55:48,490
Maybe they are weapons or communication equipment
733
00:55:48,490 --> 00:55:50,490
brought from a distant star.
734
00:56:00,210 --> 00:56:02,290
With a 2 hour flight from the capital,
735
00:56:02,290 --> 00:56:05,400
is Monte Alban in the Wahaka Valley.
736
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,300
Another testimony of brilliance
737
00:56:07,300 --> 00:56:10,230
of ancient Mexican culture.
738
00:56:10,230 --> 00:56:12,050
How was it designed?
739
00:56:12,050 --> 00:56:14,050
Who were its architects?
740
00:56:40,170 --> 00:56:43,060
Our flight flies over the mountains of Mexico,
741
00:56:43,060 --> 00:56:45,790
in another complex of temples and pyramids,
742
00:56:45,790 --> 00:56:47,220
Chichen Itza.
743
00:56:47,220 --> 00:56:49,800
Chichen Itza is an ancient Mayan settlement
744
00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:52,140
on the Yucatan Peninsula.
745
00:56:52,140 --> 00:56:53,780
Its constructions were built according to
746
00:56:53,780 --> 00:56:55,780
astrological data.
747
00:57:05,210 --> 00:57:08,840
A Mayan observatory stands on three plateaus.
748
00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:11,280
Its shape is practically unchanged
749
00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:13,760
with that of the modern observatory.
750
00:57:31,530 --> 00:57:33,720
Look carefully at this statue.
751
00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:36,940
A man confined to a small room
752
00:57:36,940 --> 00:57:39,210
seems to be operating a lever.
753
00:57:39,210 --> 00:57:41,680
There are strange protrusions on his helmet
754
00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:43,680
that look like antennas.
755
00:57:47,540 --> 00:57:51,260
This pyramid is essentially a huge stone diary.
756
00:57:51,260 --> 00:57:54,920
Each of 365 stairs on its 4 stairs
757
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,920
represents a day.
758
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:22,560
Here we see the winged god Kukul Khan.
759
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:25,640
We were told that he also came from the stars
760
00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:27,640
and turned back to them.
761
00:58:31,620 --> 00:58:35,740
It was overshadowed by the bloodthirsty warrior god Sakmol.
762
00:58:35,740 --> 00:58:37,190
It had the feature
763
00:58:37,190 --> 00:58:40,380
to accept sacrifices of human hearts.
764
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:47,020
In times of drought,
765
00:58:47,020 --> 00:58:49,080
people were led on a pilgrimage to the sanctuary
766
00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:52,540
well called Senote.
767
00:58:52,540 --> 00:58:54,670
Young girls were sacrificed here
768
00:58:54,670 --> 00:58:55,990
to the god of rain
769
00:58:55,990 --> 00:58:59,060
throwing them into the deep dark waters.
770
00:58:59,060 --> 00:59:02,210
There was no salvation from the vicious well.
771
00:59:05,030 --> 00:59:07,990
It's a round rock crater,
772
00:59:07,990 --> 00:59:10,570
could not be formed by natural causes,
773
00:59:10,570 --> 00:59:14,040
nor to be dug by human hands alone.
774
00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:17,210
It looks like a sack that encloses with a drawstring
775
00:59:17,210 --> 00:59:20,110
a very powerful rocket engine.
776
00:59:20,590 --> 00:59:22,280
Among the many unanswered questions
777
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:24,580
traces of Mayan culture,
778
00:59:24,580 --> 00:59:25,810
is the next.
779
00:59:25,810 --> 00:59:27,990
6,000 years after Christ,
780
00:59:27,990 --> 00:59:30,690
the entire Mayan population was exiled
781
00:59:30,690 --> 00:59:33,460
leaving cities, temples and pyramids,
782
00:59:33,460 --> 00:59:35,690
the fruits of hard work, behind them.
783
00:59:35,690 --> 00:59:38,920
They moved further north to start from scratch.
784
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:41,380
However there are no traces of war,
785
00:59:41,380 --> 00:59:43,160
plague, famine or
786
00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:45,540
sudden climate change of that time
787
00:59:45,540 --> 00:59:47,540
to justify immigration.
788
00:59:54,390 --> 00:59:56,430
There are 16 cities in Mexico
789
00:59:56,430 --> 00:59:59,680
with a population of more than 100,000.
790
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,420
One of them is Merida.
791
01:00:02,420 --> 01:00:05,220
This is where the Mayan descendants live.
792
01:00:05,220 --> 01:00:06,790
They still have their own language
793
01:00:06,790 --> 01:00:09,700
which originated from the ancient Mayan language.
794
01:00:09,700 --> 01:00:13,120
Perhaps the most peaceful people in Latin America.
795
01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:15,000
their faces today are haunted
796
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:16,640
from the beauty of their ancestors,
797
01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:18,640
kept for us in stone.
798
01:00:37,420 --> 01:00:38,910
Leaving the Portion,
799
01:00:38,910 --> 01:00:41,640
we fly over a vast swamp,
800
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:44,330
to get to Laventa.
801
01:00:46,220 --> 01:00:47,430
This is where we find dozens
802
01:00:47,430 --> 01:00:48,680
of these stone heads.
803
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:50,970
Right in the center of the swamps.
804
01:00:50,970 --> 01:00:53,990
Each weighs about 200 tons.
805
01:00:53,990 --> 01:00:56,310
There is no quarry within a radius of 130 km,
806
01:00:56,310 --> 01:00:58,260
only jungle.
807
01:00:58,260 --> 01:01:01,290
The same question arises again:
808
01:01:01,290 --> 01:01:03,140
How these huge statues were transported
809
01:01:03,140 --> 01:01:05,370
on the swampy ground?
810
01:01:12,370 --> 01:01:14,840
Days of delay precede our hearing
811
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:16,840
by the winged god of Palenque.
812
01:01:18,380 --> 01:01:21,650
It is not easy to see this gentleman.
813
01:01:21,650 --> 01:01:23,320
A canopy of suffocating moisture
814
01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:26,720
hovering over the virgin forest of Palenque.
815
01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:30,250
On our way to the holy city of the Maya,
816
01:01:30,250 --> 01:01:32,540
we pass the "corpse" of Cattle,
817
01:01:32,540 --> 01:01:34,610
with swarms of patient vultures
818
01:01:34,610 --> 01:01:36,610
to spin over our heads.
819
01:01:51,470 --> 01:01:53,260
After 8 negative answers,
820
01:01:53,260 --> 01:01:55,410
we were given official permission
821
01:01:55,410 --> 01:01:58,490
to film this ancient celebrity.
822
01:01:58,490 --> 01:02:03,170
The seal was opened for us for only half an hour
823
01:02:03,170 --> 01:02:05,160
We climbed a steep staircase
824
01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:08,230
and we descended into the even more suffocatingly humid atmosphere
825
01:02:08,230 --> 01:02:10,780
of the interior of the mound.
826
01:02:23,980 --> 01:02:28,090
And here it is, for the first time in a movie,
827
01:02:28,090 --> 01:02:31,210
the winged god of Palenque.
828
01:02:31,210 --> 01:02:33,820
What the lens sees is so wonderful,
829
01:02:33,820 --> 01:02:36,940
we have to look at the details separately.
830
01:02:41,220 --> 01:02:43,310
We see a man sitting in a capsule,
831
01:02:43,310 --> 01:02:45,110
to look at something intensely.
832
01:02:45,110 --> 01:02:46,810
His hands seem to be manipulating
833
01:02:46,810 --> 01:02:49,210
something unspecified controls.
834
01:02:49,210 --> 01:02:50,960
His foot presses a pedal.
835
01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:52,680
At the back of the capsule
836
01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:55,580
we see flames springing backwards.
837
01:03:00,140 --> 01:03:02,940
This is not a typical astronaut attitude,
838
01:03:02,940 --> 01:03:05,640
as we know very well today?
839
01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:07,700
Looks like he's dressed properly,
840
01:03:07,700 --> 01:03:09,700
with pants with a wide belt.
841
01:03:14,300 --> 01:03:17,280
A kind of jacket tightens on the wrists,
842
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:19,500
like a one-piece suit.
843
01:03:19,500 --> 01:03:21,270
The seat correctly positioned so that
844
01:03:21,500 --> 01:03:23,920
absorb the acceleration impulse.
845
01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:25,670
"A figure with four controls"
846
01:03:25,670 --> 01:03:28,250
"dressed like an astronaut."
847
01:03:29,890 --> 01:03:32,520
"A flame that fires a rocket."
848
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:35,020
"This stone deity," said the Maya,
849
01:03:35,020 --> 01:03:37,600
"represents Cucul Khan,"
850
01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:41,740
"which came from the stars and returned to them".
851
01:03:58,010 --> 01:03:59,230
Easter Island
852
01:03:59,230 --> 01:04:02,340
emerges from clouds of smoke and rain.
853
01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:42,950
Today the natives still call it their island
854
01:04:42,950 --> 01:04:45,160
"Matakiterani", which means:
855
01:04:45,160 --> 01:04:47,160
"Eyes looking up at the sky."
856
01:04:53,590 --> 01:04:55,330
The neighboring annular island is called:
857
01:04:55,330 --> 01:04:58,130
"The island of people-birds".
858
01:04:58,130 --> 01:05:01,310
Here we see them, creatures with human bodies
859
01:05:01,310 --> 01:05:03,550
and bird heads.
860
01:05:24,130 --> 01:05:26,210
These are real bird heads,
861
01:05:26,210 --> 01:05:30,360
or did it just look that way to the natives?
862
01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:34,060
They could even be helmets with oxygen masks.
863
01:05:45,020 --> 01:05:48,240
Legend has it that in prehistoric times
864
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:51,930
flying people came to the island through fire.
865
01:05:56,120 --> 01:06:00,180
This is Makemake, the god of the island.
866
01:06:10,530 --> 01:06:14,270
Today about 2,000 people live here.
867
01:06:14,270 --> 01:06:17,250
It was never more than 4,000 natives.
868
01:06:17,250 --> 01:06:19,920
All scholars agree on this.
869
01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:21,440
Given this,
870
01:06:21,440 --> 01:06:24,780
a complex of intertwined questions emerges.
871
01:06:24,780 --> 01:06:27,080
70% of the total population is
872
01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:30,710
women, children and the elderly.
873
01:06:30,710 --> 01:06:32,710
The majority of physically healthy men
874
01:06:32,710 --> 01:06:35,230
needed for food preparation.
875
01:06:35,230 --> 01:06:37,890
Still, the number of workers is so small,
876
01:06:37,890 --> 01:06:40,490
which would be impossible for them to build
877
01:06:40,490 --> 01:06:43,250
the over 600 huge stone sculptures
878
01:06:43,250 --> 01:06:45,830
which we find everywhere on the island.
879
01:06:51,290 --> 01:06:52,760
The stone is so hard,
880
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:54,910
which even if struck repeatedly with a stone chisel,
881
01:06:54,910 --> 01:06:57,120
as soon as it is scratched.
882
01:06:57,120 --> 01:06:58,730
Many of these stone giants
883
01:06:58,730 --> 01:07:00,890
have a height of 20 meters
884
01:07:00,890 --> 01:07:03,990
and weight almost 400 tons.
885
01:07:03,990 --> 01:07:07,600
Some of the sculptures are not fully revealed.
886
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:11,080
Only an excavation reveals their true size.
887
01:07:20,030 --> 01:07:23,470
The figures all have the same unusual type of person
888
01:07:23,470 --> 01:07:26,550
with the same taciturn expression
889
01:07:26,550 --> 01:07:28,020
one after another,
890
01:07:28,020 --> 01:07:30,610
as if they came out of the same mold.
891
01:07:47,320 --> 01:07:49,080
The only exception is the statue
892
01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:51,790
brought to light by Thor Haierdal.
893
01:07:51,790 --> 01:07:55,260
He has a round head and kneels.
894
01:08:00,710 --> 01:08:02,470
This was the stonemason's workshop
895
01:08:02,470 --> 01:08:04,850
in the volcanic crater Rano Rarakou.
896
01:08:04,850 --> 01:08:06,560
The colossi were carved here
897
01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:09,670
and moved up to a distance of up to 19 kilometers.
898
01:08:09,670 --> 01:08:12,000
There was no slave army for work,
899
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:13,480
nor wood for sliding rollers,
900
01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:15,670
or the slightest trace to indicate
901
01:08:15,670 --> 01:08:18,220
that the sculptures were drawn on the island.
902
01:08:18,220 --> 01:08:20,080
The legends of Easter Island,
903
01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:21,920
claim that the stone giants
904
01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:25,290
moved on their own with the help of "Mana",
905
01:08:25,290 --> 01:08:26,770
of a mysterious force
906
01:08:26,770 --> 01:08:29,740
which only 2 priests could rely on.
907
01:08:29,740 --> 01:08:31,240
And that one day,
908
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:35,030
the priests disappeared, with Mana.
909
01:08:35,030 --> 01:08:37,020
It was the day their work was completed
910
01:08:37,020 --> 01:08:39,970
at the Rano Rarakos quarry?
911
01:08:39,970 --> 01:08:43,670
Or maybe that's why there is an army of half-finished statues.
912
01:08:58,940 --> 01:09:00,900
What was Mana?
913
01:09:00,900 --> 01:09:02,900
They had the aliens from another planet
914
01:09:02,900 --> 01:09:05,610
electromagnetic forces?
915
01:09:05,610 --> 01:09:09,090
Were they able to defy the law of gravity?
916
01:09:11,160 --> 01:09:13,320
Until today on Easter Island
917
01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:16,630
you exercise an unusually large magnetism.
918
01:09:16,630 --> 01:09:18,950
The report of a French mission in 1964
919
01:09:18,950 --> 01:09:21,210
ends as follows:
920
01:09:21,210 --> 01:09:23,790
"Because of the unexplained magnetic forces"
921
01:09:23,790 --> 01:09:27,230
"and unusual geological phenomena on Easter Island",
922
01:09:27,230 --> 01:09:29,650
"we can not rule out the possibility"
923
01:09:29,650 --> 01:09:32,280
"extraterrestrial contact".
924
01:11:06,830 --> 01:11:09,720
Research takes us back to Central America.
925
01:11:09,720 --> 01:11:13,650
Tucusco, the capital of the Inca Empire.
926
01:11:13,650 --> 01:11:17,190
3,470 meters above sea level,
927
01:11:17,190 --> 01:11:19,610
in the Peruvian Andes.
928
01:11:19,610 --> 01:11:23,930
We were told that the city was founded by messengers of the god of the Sun.
929
01:11:26,730 --> 01:11:29,150
The walls that border the narrow streets,
930
01:11:29,150 --> 01:11:32,190
date to the Inca era.
931
01:11:32,190 --> 01:11:35,010
The passage of the centuries had little influence
932
01:11:35,010 --> 01:11:37,390
in the art of stonemasons.
933
01:11:37,390 --> 01:11:39,220
These skillfully chipped stones,
934
01:11:39,220 --> 01:11:41,350
were placed in place without mud.
935
01:11:41,350 --> 01:11:44,990
However, a blade cannot penetrate the joints.
936
01:11:48,670 --> 01:11:51,740
A peculiarity is the dodecahedral stone
937
01:11:51,740 --> 01:11:53,650
with such detailed construction,
938
01:11:53,650 --> 01:11:55,430
that only the most modern equipment
939
01:11:55,430 --> 01:11:57,430
can compete with its perfection
940
01:12:04,230 --> 01:12:06,840
... or an impressive comparison.
941
01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:09,600
This wall was constructed in the same way
942
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:11,730
and is found in many different places.
943
01:12:11,730 --> 01:12:15,080
4,830 kilometers west, in the Pacific Ocean.
944
01:12:15,080 --> 01:12:17,080
on Easter Island.
945
01:12:21,370 --> 01:12:24,370
They were the builders of Easter Island and the Andes,
946
01:12:24,370 --> 01:12:27,730
apprentices of the same teacher.
947
01:12:37,690 --> 01:12:39,140
High above Cusco,
948
01:12:39,140 --> 01:12:42,790
are the impressive ruins of the fort of Saxony,
949
01:12:42,790 --> 01:12:46,410
was used by the Incas to protect their royal city.
950
01:12:46,410 --> 01:12:48,390
Like pieces of a puzzle,
951
01:12:48,390 --> 01:12:50,710
as if they were light as matchboxes,
952
01:12:50,710 --> 01:12:53,090
Huge boulders make up a wall
953
01:12:53,090 --> 01:12:54,760
365 meters long.
954
01:12:55,940 --> 01:12:59,840
The fortress existed long before the Inca era.
955
01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:02,340
When Pizarro, the Spanish conqueror
956
01:13:02,340 --> 01:13:04,340
asked about the builders
957
01:13:04,340 --> 01:13:07,440
they told him they were light-skinned, bearded,
958
01:13:07,440 --> 01:13:09,380
race of people with red hair,
959
01:13:09,380 --> 01:13:11,380
the descendants of Verakotsia.
960
01:13:40,050 --> 01:13:43,450
Some of these stones weigh 500 tons.
961
01:14:03,440 --> 01:14:07,000
The Indians are coming to the Pizzac market.
962
01:14:44,700 --> 01:14:47,320
They return to the sacred valley of the Incas,
963
01:14:47,320 --> 01:14:50,000
the Urubaba valley.
964
01:14:53,910 --> 01:14:57,160
2,500 meters above sea level,
965
01:14:57,160 --> 01:14:59,260
is located Machu Picchu.
966
01:14:59,260 --> 01:15:01,490
The citadel that was also said to have been built
967
01:15:01,490 --> 01:15:03,620
from the divine race of light-colored,
968
01:15:03,620 --> 01:15:07,180
with auburn hair of descendants of Verakotsia.
969
01:16:11,110 --> 01:16:13,390
At the foot of the royal mountain
970
01:16:13,390 --> 01:16:16,730
Lapaz, the capital of Bolivia.
971
01:16:16,730 --> 01:16:20,120
At an altitude of 3760 meters,
972
01:16:20,120 --> 01:16:23,280
is the tallest capital in the world.
973
01:16:43,100 --> 01:16:44,880
Lake Titicaca,
974
01:16:44,880 --> 01:16:47,320
at an altitude of 3,960 meters above sea level,
975
01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:49,800
is the highest lake in the world.
976
01:16:55,190 --> 01:16:58,610
On its shores is the Indian market.
977
01:17:56,280 --> 01:18:00,030
An ancient mystery hovers over the lake with 1,000 secrets.
978
01:18:00,030 --> 01:18:01,950
Traces of an ancient civilization
979
01:18:01,950 --> 01:18:03,950
we meet around the banks.
980
01:18:03,950 --> 01:18:07,570
We learned from legend that Ohana, mother earth,
981
01:18:07,570 --> 01:18:10,070
landed here with a golden chariot.
982
01:18:10,070 --> 01:18:12,820
He brought wisdom, knowledge of arts and crafts
983
01:18:12,820 --> 01:18:16,920
to humans, then returned to the stars.
984
01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:19,180
Tijuana was built in her honor.
985
01:18:19,180 --> 01:18:23,720
The oldest religious center in the world.
986
01:18:23,720 --> 01:18:28,760
Tijuanaco is 29 miles [29 km] from the shores of Lake Titicaca.
987
01:18:28,760 --> 01:18:33,470
but it is said that in the past the lake reached the feet of the temple.
988
01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:46,170
That's how it used to be,
989
01:18:46,170 --> 01:18:50,340
the small harbor down, the sacred lake up.
990
01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,210
The lake dried up a long time ago.
991
01:18:59,210 --> 01:19:01,090
It is still surrounded by ruins
992
01:19:01,090 --> 01:19:03,610
from once huge buildings.
993
01:19:03,610 --> 01:19:05,520
It is true that the waters recede
994
01:19:05,520 --> 01:19:08,070
about 3.18 cm per year.
995
01:19:08,070 --> 01:19:11,870
However, if the coast is now 29 km away,
996
01:19:11,870 --> 01:19:15,720
how long has it been since the lake waved around the temple?
997
01:19:15,720 --> 01:19:18,790
Definitely long before the recorded story.
998
01:19:40,680 --> 01:19:43,090
The most impressive remnant of this extinct era,
999
01:19:43,090 --> 01:19:45,150
is the Gate of the Sun.
1000
01:19:45,150 --> 01:19:48,980
Carved from a piece of stone, it weighs 10 tons.
1001
01:19:48,980 --> 01:19:51,330
Three rows of standard figures
1002
01:19:51,330 --> 01:19:54,090
frame an undiscovered creature.
1003
01:19:54,090 --> 01:19:57,060
And another god who came from the stars?
1004
01:20:12,380 --> 01:20:13,790
The mysteries of the past
1005
01:20:13,790 --> 01:20:17,030
manifest themselves on all continents.
1006
01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:30,270
In the rugged hilly countryside of southwest Australia,
1007
01:20:30,270 --> 01:20:32,500
there are rows of murals
1008
01:20:32,500 --> 01:20:35,280
dating deep into the past.
1009
01:20:35,280 --> 01:20:37,280
Paintings that are probably the oldest
1010
01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:40,240
messages of prehistoric man.
1011
01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:47,500
This sketch depicts Wanjina.
1012
01:20:47,500 --> 01:20:50,850
Wanjina was the legendary goddess of the galaxy.
1013
01:20:50,850 --> 01:20:55,090
And she came from heaven to educate the children of the Earth.
1014
01:20:59,240 --> 01:21:00,980
Certainly there were models,
1015
01:21:00,980 --> 01:21:03,210
it is tempting to save a model,
1016
01:21:03,210 --> 01:21:06,720
but these deities are found on all continents.
1017
01:21:07,960 --> 01:21:10,190
In Australia,
1018
01:21:10,190 --> 01:21:12,360
in America,
1019
01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:14,850
in Africa,
1020
01:21:16,510 --> 01:21:18,540
in Europe,
1021
01:21:24,310 --> 01:21:25,940
in Asia.
1022
01:21:26,390 --> 01:21:29,570
This is one of the famous Dogs of Japan.
1023
01:21:29,570 --> 01:21:32,750
These figurines were found on the island of Hansu.
1024
01:21:32,750 --> 01:21:36,210
It is at least 5,000 years old.
1025
01:21:38,620 --> 01:21:41,450
Kazanchev, the Russian collector and expert,
1026
01:21:41,450 --> 01:21:45,190
he gave us his own explanation for them.
1027
01:21:45,190 --> 01:21:47,880
"In my opinion, these figures represent"
1028
01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:50,600
"astroplasmas as seen on Earth."
1029
01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:52,060
"Their sealed helmets are stocked"
1030
01:21:52,060 --> 01:21:53,980
"with respirator".
1031
01:21:53,980 --> 01:21:56,650
"Vision is supported by narrow-slit glasses,"
1032
01:21:56,650 --> 01:21:59,930
"as eskimos wear to avoid snow blindness."
1033
01:21:59,930 --> 01:22:01,830
"Probably used to dimmer light"
1034
01:22:01,830 --> 01:22:03,680
"back to their home planet".
1035
01:22:03,680 --> 01:22:06,210
"The space clothes they wear look inflated"
1036
01:22:06,210 --> 01:22:10,180
"to compensate for the Earth's highest atmospheric pressure."
1037
01:22:10,180 --> 01:22:12,850
"Their hands do not look human at all"
1038
01:22:12,850 --> 01:22:15,430
"but with metal grabs".
1039
01:22:15,430 --> 01:22:16,680
"If he suggests that"
1040
01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:18,840
"he is just a model of gods,"
1041
01:22:18,840 --> 01:22:21,110
"I would ask you: how their creators"
1042
01:22:21,110 --> 01:22:23,490
"would depict their technical equipment"
1043
01:22:23,490 --> 01:22:25,200
"so accurately,"
1044
01:22:25,200 --> 01:22:27,160
"without having seen a model?"
1045
01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:29,330
Kasanchev stressed another point.
1046
01:22:29,330 --> 01:22:30,760
It caught our attention
1047
01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:32,940
in the amazing resemblance between
1048
01:22:32,940 --> 01:22:34,560
of Dogo figurines
1049
01:22:34,560 --> 01:22:37,780
and the mural of the great god Mars,
1050
01:22:37,780 --> 01:22:40,500
found on the other side of the world.
1051
01:22:40,500 --> 01:22:43,030
The asymmetrical pattern of a piece of jewelry,
1052
01:22:43,030 --> 01:22:45,320
found in the tomb of a Mexican high priest,
1053
01:22:45,320 --> 01:22:48,220
can also be interpreted with frightening effect.
1054
01:22:48,220 --> 01:22:49,910
If we project on it
1055
01:22:49,910 --> 01:22:51,240
a modern electrical circuit,
1056
01:22:51,240 --> 01:22:53,190
what we thought was a simple pattern
1057
01:22:53,190 --> 01:22:54,800
takes on a new dimension.
1058
01:22:55,850 --> 01:22:58,380
Another example of Mexican decoration,
1059
01:22:58,380 --> 01:22:59,860
upon completion it is done
1060
01:22:59,860 --> 01:23:03,020
similar to a modern mechanical space caliper.
1061
01:23:18,890 --> 01:23:20,680
Once again in Iraq,
1062
01:23:20,680 --> 01:23:22,600
at the Baghdad Museum,
1063
01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:25,320
we find these little clay cups,
1064
01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:27,730
dating to the time of Christ.
1065
01:23:27,730 --> 01:23:29,450
It may be older.
1066
01:23:29,450 --> 01:23:31,480
A small copper tube is inserted
1067
01:23:31,480 --> 01:23:33,040
inside the narrow neck.
1068
01:23:33,040 --> 01:23:36,110
A rod made of an alloy of various metals,
1069
01:23:36,110 --> 01:23:37,620
is inserted into the tube.
1070
01:23:37,620 --> 01:23:40,240
When filled with hydrochloric acid,
1071
01:23:40,240 --> 01:23:42,790
the device generates electricity.
1072
01:23:42,790 --> 01:23:46,420
Undoubtedly this was a primitive electrical element.
1073
01:23:46,420 --> 01:23:49,900
And yet Duke Volta invented the electric element
1074
01:23:49,900 --> 01:23:52,810
1,500 years later.
1075
01:24:01,530 --> 01:24:04,500
Another technological marvel of the same cultural period,
1076
01:24:04,500 --> 01:24:06,660
you can see in the British Museum.
1077
01:24:06,660 --> 01:24:08,020
It is a polished lens
1078
01:24:08,020 --> 01:24:09,800
which today can only be prepared with
1079
01:24:09,800 --> 01:24:13,130
precise cutting and polishing tools.
1080
01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:18,320
Polished lenses were made in Europe
1081
01:24:18,320 --> 01:24:19,970
before the 16th century,
1082
01:24:19,970 --> 01:24:22,170
while he was found in the Near East
1083
01:24:22,170 --> 01:24:25,090
and is 2,000 years old.
1084
01:24:28,650 --> 01:24:32,090
In Moscow, near the Astronauts' Monument,
1085
01:24:32,090 --> 01:24:34,250
we talked to Dr. Vatislav Saitev
1086
01:24:34,250 --> 01:24:36,730
of the Academy of Sciences.
1087
01:24:36,730 --> 01:24:39,530
Draw our attention to 2 prehistoric finds
1088
01:24:39,530 --> 01:24:41,100
which cannot be explained simply
1089
01:24:41,100 --> 01:24:44,120
with current knowledge of history.
1090
01:24:44,120 --> 01:24:46,330
The first is the skull of a buffalo
1091
01:24:46,330 --> 01:24:50,160
wandering in the Siberian tundra 40,000 years ago.
1092
01:24:50,160 --> 01:24:52,570
He was shot by a bullet.
1093
01:24:52,570 --> 01:24:54,700
The hole is proof.
1094
01:24:56,630 --> 01:24:59,000
Ballistics experts concluded that
1095
01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:02,810
could only be pierced by a high-velocity missile,
1096
01:25:02,810 --> 01:25:05,280
and that the animal was alive when it was shot.
1097
01:25:05,280 --> 01:25:08,870
A shot taken 40,000 years ago.
1098
01:25:10,620 --> 01:25:12,270
The second example of Dr. Saitev
1099
01:25:12,270 --> 01:25:14,270
is just as scary.
1100
01:25:14,270 --> 01:25:16,950
Outside Ferkana in Uzbekistan,
1101
01:25:16,950 --> 01:25:18,720
near the Chinese border,
1102
01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:20,800
Soviet scholars found a rock painting
1103
01:25:20,800 --> 01:25:22,800
copied carefully.
1104
01:25:23,220 --> 01:25:25,230
We have to look again and again
1105
01:25:25,230 --> 01:25:29,650
to consolidate the significance of this prehistoric painting.
1106
01:25:29,650 --> 01:25:33,250
A creature wearing astronaut head equipment,
1107
01:25:33,250 --> 01:25:36,460
the helmet well connected to the pipes
1108
01:25:36,460 --> 01:25:39,950
the breathing apparatus of his space suit,
1109
01:25:39,950 --> 01:25:43,060
The ornaments of the space traveler.
1110
01:25:49,530 --> 01:25:52,460
And floating in space, a spaceship,
1111
01:25:52,460 --> 01:25:55,780
in the shape of two plates, one on top of the other.
1112
01:25:58,310 --> 01:26:00,370
Not only in Uzbekistan,
1113
01:26:00,370 --> 01:26:02,510
but all over the world we saw images
1114
01:26:02,510 --> 01:26:05,760
from flying machines and flying creatures.
1115
01:26:14,810 --> 01:26:17,050
All over the world, giants are posing
1116
01:26:17,050 --> 01:26:19,510
their silent questions.
1117
01:26:29,120 --> 01:26:32,090
And all over the world we have seen architectural models
1118
01:26:32,090 --> 01:26:34,090
to be exalted in honor of the gods
1119
01:26:34,090 --> 01:26:36,690
that came from heaven.
1120
01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:57,720
This flying machine was painted on a rock in Japan.
1121
01:26:57,720 --> 01:27:00,080
7,000 years ago.
1122
01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:03,690
This little gold replica of an ancient flying machine,
1123
01:27:03,690 --> 01:27:07,150
is Columbia, over 1,000 years old.
1124
01:27:07,150 --> 01:27:09,450
Tested in an aerodynamic tunnel.
1125
01:27:09,450 --> 01:27:14,300
Its aerodynamic shape is similar to that of modern aircraft.
1126
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:18,790
We considered it impossible to have more evidence
1127
01:27:18,790 --> 01:27:22,780
for the visit of alien creatures to our planet.
1128
01:27:22,780 --> 01:27:24,640
But there are!
1129
01:27:24,640 --> 01:27:29,800
From the Pacific Ocean we reach the shores of southern Peru,
1130
01:27:29,800 --> 01:27:32,730
in front of us is Pisko Bay.
1131
01:27:32,730 --> 01:27:37,560
There, pointing to the road, is a trident 91 meters high.
1132
01:27:37,560 --> 01:27:39,820
Obviously a signal.
1133
01:27:39,820 --> 01:27:42,010
A signal for whom?
1134
01:27:46,590 --> 01:27:48,890
We are approaching it once again.
1135
01:27:48,890 --> 01:27:51,750
This signal shows the way inland
1136
01:27:51,750 --> 01:27:54,140
for 2,000 years.
1137
01:27:54,140 --> 01:27:57,240
Does it show the way to what?
1138
01:27:57,240 --> 01:27:59,730
Let's follow it to see.
1139
01:28:14,430 --> 01:28:17,320
Passing over the ruins of ancient civilizations,
1140
01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:19,350
we finally see ahead
1141
01:28:19,350 --> 01:28:22,270
the mysterious Nazca Plain.
1142
01:28:22,270 --> 01:28:24,270
Lines are running towards us,
1143
01:28:24,270 --> 01:28:27,170
lines that mean nothing from the ground.
1144
01:28:27,170 --> 01:28:30,480
Long furrows carved into the dry soil.
1145
01:28:30,480 --> 01:28:34,560
Scientists agree that they were carved at least 2,000 years ago.
1146
01:28:52,560 --> 01:28:55,450
But do they really mean anything?
1147
01:28:55,450 --> 01:28:58,940
From a great height, for example from an aircraft,
1148
01:28:58,940 --> 01:29:00,550
focus on image.
1149
01:29:02,250 --> 01:29:04,630
We see a spider,
1150
01:29:08,880 --> 01:29:10,960
an eagle,
1151
01:29:15,810 --> 01:29:17,720
a peacock
1152
01:29:20,450 --> 01:29:21,710
and a hummingbird,
1153
01:29:23,280 --> 01:29:26,080
none of which can be identified from the ground.
1154
01:29:26,080 --> 01:29:28,240
And no observation post,
1155
01:29:28,240 --> 01:29:30,820
no mountain near looking at the plain.
1156
01:29:30,820 --> 01:29:32,990
Huge paintings should have been made
1157
01:29:32,990 --> 01:29:35,380
for someone coming from the air.
1158
01:29:36,240 --> 01:29:40,870
These lines do not make sense from the ground either.
1159
01:29:40,870 --> 01:29:42,800
Straight like arrows,
1160
01:29:42,800 --> 01:29:45,470
a huge geometric enigma,
1161
01:29:45,470 --> 01:29:48,650
some parallel, some intersecting.
1162
01:29:48,650 --> 01:29:50,330
They start out of nowhere
1163
01:29:50,330 --> 01:29:52,330
and end up out of nowhere.
1164
01:30:12,410 --> 01:30:16,160
There is no doubt, they are landing sites.
1165
01:30:24,170 --> 01:30:28,810
The Nazca Plain is a huge abandoned airport.
1166
01:30:34,650 --> 01:30:37,970
Could these be astrological symbols?
1167
01:30:37,970 --> 01:30:41,910
These signs are only visible from a great height.
1168
01:30:41,910 --> 01:30:43,270
Who could follow them?
1169
01:30:43,270 --> 01:30:44,500
Are they roads?
1170
01:30:44,500 --> 01:30:48,300
Roads that go nowhere and suddenly stop.
1171
01:30:49,760 --> 01:30:51,900
But if it was a runway,
1172
01:30:51,900 --> 01:30:54,100
who was destined to land there?
1173
01:30:54,100 --> 01:30:57,090
Do these figures answer our questions?
1174
01:31:04,330 --> 01:31:08,240
Did gods from distant planets visit Earth?
1175
01:31:17,370 --> 01:31:19,900
Were the gods astronauts?
1176
01:31:51,150 --> 01:31:55,510
We gathered a lot of evidence from all over the world,
1177
01:31:55,510 --> 01:31:57,800
we can still challenge the conclusion,
1178
01:31:57,800 --> 01:32:00,770
but we do not dare to ignore the evidence.
1179
01:32:00,770 --> 01:32:04,540
As long as such ancient mysteries remain unexplained,
1180
01:32:04,540 --> 01:32:07,020
our questions are valid.
1181
01:33:03,250 --> 01:33:05,990
Were the gods astronauts?
1182
01:33:05,990 --> 01:33:14,090
Do you suppose that, once upon a time ...
1183
01:33:17,510 --> 01:33:20,160
