Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,777 --> 00:00:03,805
A 2,000-year-old computer.
2
00:00:03,925 --> 00:00:06,540
It had more complicated inner workings
3
00:00:06,576 --> 00:00:08,808
than a modern-day Swiss watch.
4
00:00:09,402 --> 00:00:11,469
Giant power plants.
5
00:00:11,589 --> 00:00:14,936
It's very strange, but
it's clearly a battery.
6
00:00:15,384 --> 00:00:19,701
And weapons more powerful than
anything that exists today.
7
00:00:19,821 --> 00:00:24,356
It roared, then flashes
of fire came out of it.
8
00:00:25,051 --> 00:00:26,607
Throughout the world,
9
00:00:26,625 --> 00:00:32,909
there are artifacts and stories that point
to advanced technology in the distant past.
10
00:00:33,147 --> 00:00:37,601
Could these be products of
our ancestors' imaginations?
11
00:00:37,647 --> 00:00:41,342
Or might there be a more
profound explanation?
12
00:00:42,330 --> 00:00:45,741
It sounds fantastic to us that
they could have had some kind of
13
00:00:45,861 --> 00:00:47,864
alien technology.
14
00:00:47,891 --> 00:00:50,425
It's clearly what they're describing.
15
00:00:51,156 --> 00:00:53,626
Millions of people around the world
16
00:00:53,746 --> 00:00:58,619
believe we have been visited in
the past by extraterrestrial beings.
17
00:00:58,665 --> 00:01:01,363
What if it were true?
18
00:01:01,483 --> 00:01:05,809
Did ancient aliens really
help to shape our history?
19
00:01:06,376 --> 00:01:13,364
And, if so, might we find proof
by examining mysterious devices?
20
00:01:46,690 --> 00:01:51,830
The Giza Necropolis, Egypt. 1993.
21
00:01:52,946 --> 00:01:57,382
A team of engineers uses
a remotely-operated camera
22
00:01:57,409 --> 00:02:00,430
in an attempt to discover the true function
23
00:02:00,458 --> 00:02:03,055
of what is believed to be an airshaft
24
00:02:03,175 --> 00:02:06,960
leading from the supposed queen's
chamber of the Great Pyramid.
25
00:02:07,747 --> 00:02:10,948
First discovered in 1872,
26
00:02:11,049 --> 00:02:14,680
archaeologists long
considered these narrow tunnels
27
00:02:14,726 --> 00:02:16,829
to be ventilation ducts.
28
00:02:17,048 --> 00:02:20,552
This robot traveled up
this small shaft, which was
29
00:02:20,672 --> 00:02:24,658
too small for a human or any
type of device to go through,
30
00:02:25,536 --> 00:02:28,153
and all of a sudden, it finds a closed door
31
00:02:28,180 --> 00:02:31,528
hinged by two little metal clamps.
32
00:02:32,479 --> 00:02:35,314
According to mainstream archaeologists,
33
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,753
the door and metal handles
were intentionally built
34
00:02:38,762 --> 00:02:42,539
as a symbolic passageway that
the queen would travel through
35
00:02:42,566 --> 00:02:44,524
to the afterlife.
36
00:02:47,076 --> 00:02:49,582
But some researchers have questioned
37
00:02:49,591 --> 00:02:52,610
why this passageway
would have been designed
38
00:02:52,628 --> 00:02:54,905
with a deliberate blockage,
39
00:02:56,149 --> 00:02:57,540
and why...
40
00:02:57,660 --> 00:03:00,924
on a plateau filled
with monumental pyramids
41
00:03:01,044 --> 00:03:03,713
believed to serve as royal tombs...
42
00:03:03,750 --> 00:03:07,719
is the Great Pyramid the
only one with such a door?
43
00:03:07,984 --> 00:03:11,643
Egyptologists are very
much fond of saying that
44
00:03:11,671 --> 00:03:16,025
pyramids are tombs, and that they have
been robbed at some point in the past.
45
00:03:16,665 --> 00:03:19,931
But the fact is that we have
found, in the 20th century,
46
00:03:19,967 --> 00:03:24,576
a number of pyramids whose central
king's chamber, so to speak,
47
00:03:24,577 --> 00:03:26,059
is intact.
48
00:03:26,278 --> 00:03:28,117
And when they opened the sarcophagus,
49
00:03:28,126 --> 00:03:31,940
they found that sarcophagus
to be empty, as well.
50
00:03:33,541 --> 00:03:36,294
If the Great Pyramid was not a tomb,
51
00:03:36,414 --> 00:03:39,230
what may have been its true purpose?
52
00:03:42,065 --> 00:03:44,297
In May 2011,
53
00:03:44,417 --> 00:03:49,025
another team of researchers set out
to further explore the blocked airshaft
54
00:03:49,034 --> 00:03:51,705
in the queen's chamber. This time,
55
00:03:51,723 --> 00:03:55,812
the crew used a robot equipped
with a micro-snake camera
56
00:03:55,852 --> 00:04:00,293
to slip through a hole and
reveal what was beyond the door.
57
00:04:00,586 --> 00:04:03,110
When they actually
penetrated this small door,
58
00:04:03,119 --> 00:04:06,594
they found a hidden
room within the pyramid.
59
00:04:06,823 --> 00:04:09,193
What they found was copper fittings,
60
00:04:09,229 --> 00:04:11,306
or the metal fittings.
61
00:04:11,507 --> 00:04:15,522
Another feature of the
back of these metal fittings
62
00:04:15,642 --> 00:04:17,864
was that on one side,
63
00:04:17,900 --> 00:04:21,961
the loop looked like it was corroded.
64
00:04:23,214 --> 00:04:27,330
The camera also looked
down and scanned the floor,
65
00:04:27,450 --> 00:04:30,669
and what we saw was red markings.
66
00:04:30,789 --> 00:04:33,028
My interpretation of those were,
67
00:04:33,046 --> 00:04:34,903
they were electrical symbols.
68
00:04:34,940 --> 00:04:37,006
But why were they there?
69
00:04:38,261 --> 00:04:41,396
Could these artifacts be actual evidence
70
00:04:41,433 --> 00:04:44,543
that electricity once
coursed through the structure?
71
00:04:47,415 --> 00:04:50,992
And if so, could the Great Pyramid of Giza
72
00:04:51,011 --> 00:04:54,249
have been built to
serve as not a royal tomb
73
00:04:54,285 --> 00:04:55,831
but a power plant,
74
00:04:55,876 --> 00:04:58,218
as some researchers contend?
75
00:04:58,338 --> 00:05:01,098
If we dismiss the tomb theory,
76
00:05:01,099 --> 00:05:04,437
and we look at the pyramid itself,
77
00:05:04,803 --> 00:05:08,626
we see something that modern engineers
78
00:05:08,663 --> 00:05:11,370
can really tune into and understand.
79
00:05:12,276 --> 00:05:16,383
What we have is a very,
very precise building
80
00:05:16,429 --> 00:05:20,783
that has the precision
of a fraction of an inch,
81
00:05:20,903 --> 00:05:23,170
is something that is very noteworthy
82
00:05:23,198 --> 00:05:27,661
and not indicative of a
simple, agrarian culture.
83
00:05:27,927 --> 00:05:32,190
So, what we have is something
that is almost like a machine.
84
00:05:33,296 --> 00:05:36,734
If the Great Pyramid was
a sophisticated machine,
85
00:05:36,854 --> 00:05:39,725
potentially capable of creating energy,
86
00:05:39,753 --> 00:05:41,902
how could it have worked?
87
00:05:42,991 --> 00:05:45,945
Some researchers believe clues can be found
88
00:05:45,981 --> 00:05:48,954
by exploring underneath the structure.
89
00:05:50,683 --> 00:05:54,836
In 2000, maritime engineer John Cadman
90
00:05:54,845 --> 00:05:59,537
proposed a theory that the Egyptians
pumped water from the nearby Nile River
91
00:06:01,174 --> 00:06:05,225
into a small chamber
underneath the Great Pyramid.
92
00:06:06,405 --> 00:06:10,265
The pump could then create
intense hydraulic pressure
93
00:06:10,310 --> 00:06:14,279
that would cause the
entire pyramid to vibrate.
94
00:06:17,618 --> 00:06:20,160
In the subterranean chamber,
there is some evidence
95
00:06:20,197 --> 00:06:23,169
that shows that there had
been water present in it
96
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,596
and that there's water erosion on the floor
97
00:06:27,852 --> 00:06:30,376
and then up in the thin area.
98
00:06:30,496 --> 00:06:32,990
And then, also, because it was a
99
00:06:32,992 --> 00:06:35,599
hydraulic pulse generator.
100
00:06:36,084 --> 00:06:38,654
See how the rarefaction wave,
101
00:06:38,690 --> 00:06:40,629
this extremely low-pressure wave,
102
00:06:40,749 --> 00:06:44,800
which would have struck the ceiling,
and the ceiling is actually chipped.
103
00:06:44,828 --> 00:06:47,681
And that would have been from the acts of
104
00:06:47,801 --> 00:06:51,916
compression waves hitting the
ceiling. That's very evident.
105
00:06:53,801 --> 00:06:56,572
If Cadman's theory proves true,
106
00:06:56,692 --> 00:07:00,322
what would have been the
purpose of the hydraulic pulse?
107
00:07:00,442 --> 00:07:02,215
Engineer Chris Dunn
108
00:07:02,233 --> 00:07:04,255
believes the answer can be found
109
00:07:04,282 --> 00:07:09,221
by further examination of the shafts
in what some call "the queen's chamber,"
110
00:07:10,923 --> 00:07:15,551
where traces of zinc and drochloric
acid have been discovered.
111
00:07:16,429 --> 00:07:19,823
I believe the chemical coming
in through the northern shaft
112
00:07:19,943 --> 00:07:21,908
was hydrated zinc,
113
00:07:22,237 --> 00:07:27,048
and the other chemical coming through
the southern shaft and into the chamber
114
00:07:27,168 --> 00:07:30,762
was dilute hydrochloric acid.
115
00:07:31,283 --> 00:07:34,915
These are actually seen
on the chamber walls.
116
00:07:35,619 --> 00:07:40,511
Dunn suggests that the two chemicals
were poured down through the shafts
117
00:07:40,548 --> 00:07:46,412
and then mixed together inside the
queen's chamber, triggering combustion.
118
00:07:48,973 --> 00:07:52,165
This vessel represents the queen's chamber.
119
00:07:52,695 --> 00:07:57,407
Into the tubes, we're
going to pour hydrated zinc
120
00:07:58,486 --> 00:08:02,181
and then hydrochloric acid.
121
00:08:02,455 --> 00:08:05,465
When you bring these two liquids together,
122
00:08:05,483 --> 00:08:08,300
and a chemical reaction occurs,
123
00:08:08,337 --> 00:08:13,411
and a product of that
chemical reaction is hydrogen.
124
00:08:13,531 --> 00:08:16,174
And you can see the vapor, the hydrogen,
125
00:08:16,202 --> 00:08:19,759
escaping through the chimney.
126
00:08:20,061 --> 00:08:22,540
And there you have the reaction.
127
00:08:23,418 --> 00:08:26,418
Dunn speculates that the hydrogen gas
128
00:08:26,464 --> 00:08:30,186
traveled from the queen's
chamber into the king's chamber.
129
00:08:31,577 --> 00:08:35,528
Then the vibrations from
the subterranean pool
130
00:08:35,619 --> 00:08:40,713
energized the hydrogen atoms
into a microwave energy beam.
131
00:08:41,848 --> 00:08:49,151
The evidence that indicates the use of
hydrogen can be found in the king's chamber.
132
00:08:50,743 --> 00:08:54,639
There's a shaft in the king's chamber,
133
00:08:54,759 --> 00:08:58,471
has dimensions of 8.4 by 4.8,
134
00:08:58,591 --> 00:09:02,999
which would be suitable for
a wave guide for a maser,
135
00:09:03,008 --> 00:09:07,463
or a microwave amplification through
stimulated emission radiation.
136
00:09:07,583 --> 00:09:09,484
And from there
137
00:09:09,740 --> 00:09:14,039
we can actually propose many different
ideas of what they did with it.
138
00:09:14,313 --> 00:09:16,371
The ancient Egyptians demonstrated
139
00:09:16,417 --> 00:09:18,841
an exceptional level of skill
140
00:09:18,886 --> 00:09:22,471
in everything that they
created during the Old Kingdom,
141
00:09:22,481 --> 00:09:24,383
but the question remains:
142
00:09:24,503 --> 00:09:26,569
did they do it on their own?
143
00:09:26,570 --> 00:09:29,333
Or did they have some access
144
00:09:29,453 --> 00:09:34,683
to information or technology
that was not of this earth?
145
00:09:36,569 --> 00:09:40,201
If Giza was, in fact, a power plant,
146
00:09:40,321 --> 00:09:44,535
could the energy have been used
for me otherworldly purpose,
147
00:09:44,553 --> 00:09:48,487
as some ancient astronaut
theorists suggest?
148
00:09:48,789 --> 00:09:52,291
Perhaps further evidence
that advanced technology
149
00:09:52,309 --> 00:09:56,188
really did exist on Earth
thousands of years ago
150
00:09:56,444 --> 00:10:00,689
can be found by examining
yet another mysterious device,
151
00:10:00,809 --> 00:10:04,192
the Ark of the Covenant.
152
00:10:11,124 --> 00:10:15,267
Approximately 17 miles
northeast of Jerusalem
153
00:10:15,277 --> 00:10:19,237
lies the ancient ruins
of the city of Jericho.
154
00:10:19,704 --> 00:10:23,040
Here, archaeologists
have uncovered evidence
155
00:10:23,041 --> 00:10:27,248
of settlements dating back to 9,000 BC. A
156
00:10:27,368 --> 00:10:29,608
ccording to the Hebrew Bible,
157
00:10:29,635 --> 00:10:33,457
Jericho is believed to be
where God spoke to Joshua,
158
00:10:33,458 --> 00:10:35,635
the successor to Moses,
159
00:10:35,663 --> 00:10:39,138
and instructed him to
march around the walled city
160
00:10:39,147 --> 00:10:42,230
once every six days with seven priests
161
00:10:42,257 --> 00:10:46,676
carrying rams' horns, and followed
by the Ark of the Covenant,
162
00:10:46,796 --> 00:10:50,810
the golden chest containing
the Ten Commandments.
163
00:10:51,871 --> 00:10:54,048
Then, on the seventh day,
164
00:10:54,168 --> 00:10:56,041
under orders by God,
165
00:10:56,051 --> 00:10:57,971
Joshua and the Israelites
166
00:10:57,999 --> 00:11:01,666
marched around the perimeter
of the city one last time...
167
00:11:03,450 --> 00:11:06,560
... but this time they
blew the rams' horns.
168
00:11:08,097 --> 00:11:10,730
The walls of Jericho fell,
169
00:11:11,883 --> 00:11:14,480
and the city was sacked.
170
00:11:19,639 --> 00:11:22,803
In the Old Testament, you
see very clear descriptions
171
00:11:22,923 --> 00:11:26,233
in Joshua 6 about the shofar,
172
00:11:26,353 --> 00:11:30,157
which is described as a trumpet that
was used in the battle of Jericho
173
00:11:30,277 --> 00:11:32,517
to actually bring the walls down.
174
00:11:35,590 --> 00:11:37,346
To religious scholars,
175
00:11:37,392 --> 00:11:40,913
the collapse of Jericho's
walls was a miracle.
176
00:11:40,959 --> 00:11:44,169
To most modern-day
scientists and historians,
177
00:11:44,215 --> 00:11:48,184
the destruction was most
probably caused by an earthquake.
178
00:11:48,587 --> 00:11:51,870
But could it have been something else?
179
00:11:52,437 --> 00:11:57,376
Could the Israelites have possessed
advanced sound wave technology?
180
00:11:57,383 --> 00:12:00,651
If so, where did it come from?
181
00:12:00,771 --> 00:12:03,624
In the scriptures, we
have a fascinating story
182
00:12:03,642 --> 00:12:05,910
about the fall of the walls of Jericho.
183
00:12:06,030 --> 00:12:09,935
Armies were told to circle the
wall repeatedly and then finally
184
00:12:09,944 --> 00:12:12,477
blow their horns, and down came the walls.
185
00:12:12,496 --> 00:12:14,993
And we know there was a powerful presence.
186
00:12:15,011 --> 00:12:18,935
The Ark of the Covenant,
this mysterious, sacred item,
187
00:12:18,953 --> 00:12:21,340
was with them at all
times, which, of course,
188
00:12:21,359 --> 00:12:25,209
was part of the event and part of
the fall of the walls of Jericho.
189
00:12:27,313 --> 00:12:32,288
The idea that some kind of sonic weapon
190
00:12:32,745 --> 00:12:36,953
was used to destroy these
huge, thick, ancient walls
191
00:12:36,980 --> 00:12:38,701
to allow the Israelites to
192
00:12:38,710 --> 00:12:41,874
basically take over that
city, is a fascinating one.
193
00:12:41,994 --> 00:12:45,011
So what kind of technology were they using?
194
00:12:45,304 --> 00:12:48,578
It sounds utterly fantastic to us
195
00:12:48,596 --> 00:12:52,840
that they could have had some
kind of advanced alien technology.
196
00:12:52,876 --> 00:12:55,666
It's clearly what they're describing.
197
00:12:57,029 --> 00:13:02,023
There is little doubt that the
Ark of the Covenant was a weapon.
198
00:13:02,041 --> 00:13:05,901
It was described as a
weapon, famously, when the
199
00:13:05,919 --> 00:13:12,738
Israelites crossed over into Canaan,
and they had to pass by Jericho.
200
00:13:13,081 --> 00:13:17,553
And it could be that
there was some technology.
201
00:13:19,799 --> 00:13:23,289
According to many ancient
astronaut theorists,
202
00:13:23,307 --> 00:13:29,444
Moses and the Israelites acquired a
supernatural source of energy at Mount Sinai.
203
00:13:29,755 --> 00:13:35,288
This powerful energy source was later
contained in the Ark of the Covenant
204
00:13:35,315 --> 00:13:38,032
and would have provided
the kind of power necessary
205
00:13:38,050 --> 00:13:40,428
to amplify Joshua's horns,
206
00:13:44,792 --> 00:13:49,831
The Ark of the Covenant appears to
be some sort of advanced technology.
207
00:13:49,951 --> 00:13:52,594
What's interesting about
the Battle of Jericho
208
00:13:52,630 --> 00:13:55,374
is that this particular use of the shofar
209
00:13:55,420 --> 00:13:58,795
clearly seems to be the same
thing that we're seeing with
210
00:13:58,804 --> 00:14:02,434
particle beam technology,
death ray technology,
211
00:14:02,462 --> 00:14:04,254
thunderbolt technology.
212
00:14:04,374 --> 00:14:06,742
It very clearly seems that, once again,
213
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,727
we have an extraterrestrial technology
214
00:14:08,736 --> 00:14:11,361
that the ancient people had at the ready
215
00:14:11,481 --> 00:14:15,468
that they could use, when
needed, for military campaigns.
216
00:14:18,002 --> 00:14:24,606
But even if the Israelites possessed some
sort of advanced, extraterrestrial technology,
217
00:14:24,726 --> 00:14:27,498
could the aplified sound of rams' horns
218
00:14:27,543 --> 00:14:30,543
really bring down stone walls?
219
00:14:30,982 --> 00:14:36,023
According to scientist and former
astronaut, Professor Taylor Wang,
220
00:14:36,143 --> 00:14:39,837
recent research into the
field of physical acoustics
221
00:14:39,855 --> 00:14:43,368
suggests it is a distinct possibility.
222
00:14:43,624 --> 00:14:46,203
Jericho, wall breaking apart.
223
00:14:46,249 --> 00:14:48,325
If you said it has happened,
224
00:14:48,362 --> 00:14:52,121
caused by acoustic, caused by sound...
225
00:14:52,861 --> 00:14:58,221
Well, the possibility has to be, somehow
a resonance is built in that wall.
226
00:14:58,230 --> 00:15:01,733
Ah, may not be the whole wall, may
be some of the structure material,
227
00:15:01,742 --> 00:15:05,063
when that resonance happens,
amplitude gets large enough.
228
00:15:05,108 --> 00:15:08,620
Yes, it could destroy
almost anything. Because
229
00:15:08,656 --> 00:15:12,032
what the resonance does is
store enormous amount of energy.
230
00:15:12,050 --> 00:15:13,678
So you keep on, keep on feeding it.
231
00:15:13,715 --> 00:15:16,367
Eventually, it shatters everything.
232
00:15:19,906 --> 00:15:21,836
When you want to know
how powerful sound is,
233
00:15:21,855 --> 00:15:24,105
you have to realize that the
basic thing that sound is,
234
00:15:24,110 --> 00:15:24,846
is a pressure wave.
235
00:15:24,864 --> 00:15:28,202
And it will come down to the amount
of energy you put into your sound wave,
236
00:15:28,212 --> 00:15:33,041
and whether or not that particular
pressure wave you generate
237
00:15:33,087 --> 00:15:36,562
will couple or impact the
thing you're trying to destroy.
238
00:15:39,628 --> 00:15:41,192
You can make it quite powerful,
239
00:15:41,219 --> 00:15:43,780
'cause you can make a very high
amplitude, very large pressures
240
00:15:43,817 --> 00:15:47,713
in the sound. It might be at a frequency or
amplitude where we no longer hear it as sound,
241
00:15:47,732 --> 00:15:50,155
but from a physics point
of view, it is still sound,
242
00:15:50,183 --> 00:15:52,012
because it's a pressure wave in the air.
243
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,359
So, it can get quite destructive
if you put enough energy into it.
244
00:15:58,606 --> 00:16:00,784
You could also think of
it as a particle weapon,
245
00:16:00,802 --> 00:16:02,348
because you're moving air around,
246
00:16:02,366 --> 00:16:04,680
and you would just need
something to focus the sound,
247
00:16:04,716 --> 00:16:05,823
which we know how to do.
248
00:16:05,832 --> 00:16:08,448
And so that would give you a
directed energy beam with sound.
249
00:16:09,226 --> 00:16:12,455
Did advanced extraterrestrial technology
250
00:16:12,575 --> 00:16:16,534
really help the Israelites
survive their exodus in the desert,
251
00:16:16,654 --> 00:16:18,857
as the Hebrew Bible contends?
252
00:16:19,544 --> 00:16:23,595
And, if so, might early
humans have possessed other,
253
00:16:23,632 --> 00:16:27,218
equally astounding technological devices?
254
00:16:27,338 --> 00:16:30,346
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes
255
00:16:30,466 --> 00:16:32,869
and believe further clues can be found
256
00:16:32,906 --> 00:16:34,598
by examining an object
257
00:16:34,634 --> 00:16:37,997
that dates back to the second century BC,
258
00:16:38,117 --> 00:16:41,988
one that functioned as a computer.
259
00:16:47,128 --> 00:16:50,384
Did aliens really inspire our ancestors
260
00:16:50,402 --> 00:16:53,146
to build ancient temples and pyramids?
261
00:16:53,613 --> 00:16:55,195
And if they came here,
262
00:16:55,315 --> 00:16:58,341
did they leave behind any
advanced knowledge of physics,
263
00:16:58,350 --> 00:17:01,487
astronomy or mathematics?
264
00:17:01,780 --> 00:17:06,042
If so, is there any evidence
that remains to this day?
265
00:17:06,448 --> 00:17:09,087
One example might be this one.
266
00:17:09,207 --> 00:17:12,835
Often described as the world's
first mechanical computer,
267
00:17:12,955 --> 00:17:16,441
it dates back over 2,000 years.
268
00:17:16,679 --> 00:17:19,295
The Antikythera device was
269
00:17:19,332 --> 00:17:22,808
found in 1900 by sponge divers
270
00:17:22,835 --> 00:17:27,308
diving off a small island in
the Aegean called Antikythera.
271
00:17:27,527 --> 00:17:29,284
There was a shipwreck there,
272
00:17:29,311 --> 00:17:34,278
and in it was a coral-encrusted box,
273
00:17:34,398 --> 00:17:37,506
and it was made of metal alloys.
274
00:17:37,808 --> 00:17:40,178
And it then went to the Athens Museum
275
00:17:40,205 --> 00:17:42,500
where, a good 50 years later,
276
00:17:42,501 --> 00:17:46,068
they were able to x-ray this box
277
00:17:46,188 --> 00:17:48,885
and they were able to discern
278
00:17:49,005 --> 00:17:52,269
cogged wheels that were interconnected
279
00:17:52,389 --> 00:17:56,805
and give us a very good
depiction of what this thing was.
280
00:17:56,833 --> 00:17:58,918
And it is a computer.
281
00:17:58,955 --> 00:18:02,440
It's a really sophisticated machine.
282
00:18:06,508 --> 00:18:08,558
It's a very interesting
piece of technology,
283
00:18:08,604 --> 00:18:10,086
because it served two purposes.
284
00:18:10,095 --> 00:18:13,736
One was that it was an
astronomical device where you could,
285
00:18:13,856 --> 00:18:16,388
by using it, chart your
position to the stars
286
00:18:16,425 --> 00:18:18,300
and navigate your way through the seas.
287
00:18:18,319 --> 00:18:22,169
It was also an astrological device,
so that someone could tell you,
288
00:18:22,196 --> 00:18:24,200
"Ah, if you were born on this date,
289
00:18:24,227 --> 00:18:25,956
and your planet sign is this,
290
00:18:25,974 --> 00:18:28,160
then certain things were
going to happen to you
291
00:18:28,196 --> 00:18:29,779
when the planets are in this alignment."
292
00:18:29,788 --> 00:18:34,498
So, it was a very interesting
piece of technology that, literally,
293
00:18:34,745 --> 00:18:39,500
had more complicated gears and inner
workings than a modern-day Swiss watch.
294
00:18:39,620 --> 00:18:42,619
And it's found to be
dated, I think, like 200 BC.
295
00:18:42,637 --> 00:18:44,851
So, it's really an anomaly as to
296
00:18:44,887 --> 00:18:48,133
who could've created that and
what it was being used for.
297
00:18:51,225 --> 00:18:56,218
When archeologists first started
to examine this thing in the 1950s,
298
00:18:56,264 --> 00:19:00,352
they said that they never could
conceive of the ancient Greeks
299
00:19:00,370 --> 00:19:02,949
having such complicated machinery.
300
00:19:02,986 --> 00:19:04,979
And, in fact, they
said, this was tantamount
301
00:19:05,007 --> 00:19:08,848
to finding a jet airplane
in the tomb of King Tut.
302
00:19:19,193 --> 00:19:22,539
Even older than the Antikythera mechanism
303
00:19:22,768 --> 00:19:28,009
are these carvings on a wall at
the Dendera Temple complex in Egypt.
304
00:19:28,256 --> 00:19:32,426
To some, the strange
designs look eerily similar
305
00:19:32,454 --> 00:19:35,051
to objects very much in use today.
306
00:19:35,289 --> 00:19:39,057
In Egypt, there is this underground crypt
307
00:19:39,094 --> 00:19:42,451
at Dendera that was always secret,
308
00:19:42,460 --> 00:19:47,125
and only the high priests
had access to that crypt.
309
00:19:47,245 --> 00:19:51,039
It's very hot in there,
very narrow, low ceiling.
310
00:19:51,058 --> 00:19:54,296
And on the walls, you have these reliefs
311
00:19:54,333 --> 00:19:59,372
of what looks like ancient lightbulbs.
312
00:19:59,492 --> 00:20:03,214
Because we have to question one thing.
313
00:20:03,251 --> 00:20:08,794
How did the ancient Egyptians
light the inside of their tombs?
314
00:20:11,428 --> 00:20:14,263
According to most mainstream archeologists,
315
00:20:14,383 --> 00:20:17,117
torches were used by the ancient Egyptians
316
00:20:17,135 --> 00:20:20,693
to light the pitch-black
chambers of tombs and temples.
317
00:20:20,813 --> 00:20:22,889
Yet, nowhere on the ceilings
318
00:20:22,925 --> 00:20:27,041
is there even the slightest
evidence of soot or smoke residue.
319
00:20:28,111 --> 00:20:33,489
There isn't enough
oxygen inside those tombs
320
00:20:33,508 --> 00:20:38,054
with which to support or
feed a flame of a torch.
321
00:20:38,100 --> 00:20:40,459
The only remaining solution is,
322
00:20:40,478 --> 00:20:43,899
by some sort of an artificial light source.
323
00:20:44,137 --> 00:20:48,719
And that is, for example, a lightbulb.
324
00:20:48,755 --> 00:20:52,506
So, at the underground crypt at Dendera,
325
00:20:52,716 --> 00:20:56,430
we find reliefs of such lightbulbs.
326
00:20:57,783 --> 00:21:00,080
But how could the ancient Egyptians
327
00:21:00,098 --> 00:21:03,161
have used anything resembling
a modern-day lightbulb
328
00:21:03,180 --> 00:21:05,503
without access to electricity?
329
00:21:05,530 --> 00:21:10,250
After all, electricity wouldn't be
discovered for thousands of years.
330
00:21:10,370 --> 00:21:15,911
That is, of course, with the exception of
what scientists call the Baghdad Battery.
331
00:21:16,031 --> 00:21:19,314
The Baghdad Battery was
discovered in ancient Iraq.
332
00:21:19,323 --> 00:21:24,765
Scholars today say there's no way that ancient
man was using electricity or lightbulbs.
333
00:21:24,802 --> 00:21:26,696
So, they look at this Baghdad Battery...
334
00:21:26,705 --> 00:21:29,110
and there's about a dozen of them
that have been found in Iraq...
335
00:21:29,230 --> 00:21:33,619
and the only mainstream theory is that they
were using it for electroplating jewelry.
336
00:21:34,031 --> 00:21:37,607
Two major proponents
of ancient alien theory,
337
00:21:37,616 --> 00:21:40,872
Jason Martell and Giorgio Tsoukalos,
338
00:21:40,992 --> 00:21:45,638
demonstrate just how the Baghdad
Battery could generate electricity,
339
00:21:45,758 --> 00:21:48,410
using a modern mock-up of the device.
340
00:21:48,530 --> 00:21:51,135
Well, basically, this is
made out of a clay pot,
341
00:21:51,171 --> 00:21:53,924
clay just found naturally in
that region in Southern Iraq.
342
00:21:53,961 --> 00:21:56,824
And then they would use
a small copper lining
343
00:21:56,944 --> 00:22:00,071
and something along the
lines of an asphalt stopper
344
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:01,608
wrapped around an iron rod.
345
00:22:01,635 --> 00:22:03,885
And these all applied together
346
00:22:03,913 --> 00:22:07,269
and the combination of some
weak acidic acid... vinegar,
347
00:22:07,297 --> 00:22:09,666
grape juice, orange juice
in this case, wine...
348
00:22:09,693 --> 00:22:12,729
would be able to generate a
charge by combining these elements
349
00:22:12,756 --> 00:22:14,937
with the rod, the iron rod and the copper.
350
00:22:14,942 --> 00:22:18,292
And the combination of that creates
an abundance of, uh, electricity.
351
00:22:18,360 --> 00:22:19,945
So what we're gonna do is, uh,
352
00:22:19,990 --> 00:22:23,072
basically just fill the clay
pot with some orange juice here.
353
00:22:23,073 --> 00:22:25,114
- I'll try not to spill it too much.
- Okay.
354
00:22:25,642 --> 00:22:28,169
And then we'll go ahead and put
the copper rod back in there.
355
00:22:28,237 --> 00:22:29,428
Copper and iron rod.
356
00:22:29,437 --> 00:22:32,454
We'll give it a moment to kind
of fill that copper area there.
357
00:22:32,574 --> 00:22:34,587
And then by turning on the volt meter
358
00:22:34,925 --> 00:22:37,797
and applying this to each side,
359
00:22:37,917 --> 00:22:40,065
we should be able to generate a charge.
360
00:22:41,930 --> 00:22:45,269
And there it goes, into the positive.
361
00:22:46,622 --> 00:22:50,071
And if we give it some
time to get the electrolytes
362
00:22:50,089 --> 00:22:54,360
really buzzing in there, you'll see that
this volt will actually continue to rise.
363
00:22:55,778 --> 00:22:58,530
It is a battery.
Everybody agrees with that.
364
00:22:58,567 --> 00:23:01,950
But nobody knows why they
made it and how they made it.
365
00:23:02,070 --> 00:23:04,008
What mind would think of that?
366
00:23:04,128 --> 00:23:05,956
You know, electrical current
367
00:23:05,993 --> 00:23:08,728
back several thousand years ago?
368
00:23:08,764 --> 00:23:11,398
It's very strange, but
it's clearly a battery.
369
00:23:11,691 --> 00:23:14,545
The whole idea that ancient civilizations
370
00:23:14,563 --> 00:23:16,740
actually had knowledge of electricity
371
00:23:16,759 --> 00:23:21,368
and used electricity is an
accepted archeological fact today.
372
00:23:21,377 --> 00:23:24,432
Just like in our own civilization,
373
00:23:24,460 --> 00:23:26,572
where about 200 years ago,
374
00:23:26,591 --> 00:23:30,066
Benjamin Franklin and other
scientists began experimenting with
375
00:23:30,103 --> 00:23:32,344
simple electrical devices,
376
00:23:32,464 --> 00:23:36,661
we now have evidence
that over 3,000 years ago,
377
00:23:36,716 --> 00:23:40,273
people were also experimenting
with electrical devices.
378
00:23:40,310 --> 00:23:42,167
Where might it have led them?
379
00:23:42,176 --> 00:23:45,624
What other electrical devices
would they have been able to create?
380
00:23:47,883 --> 00:23:51,853
I believe they probably created
all kinds of electrical devices.
381
00:23:53,792 --> 00:23:57,468
Are the Antikythera device
and the Baghdad Battery
382
00:23:57,495 --> 00:24:03,075
evidence that our ancestors really were
in possession of advanced technology?
383
00:24:03,365 --> 00:24:09,111
And if so, might this technology
have had extraterrestrial origins?
384
00:24:09,404 --> 00:24:13,519
Ancient astronaut theorists
believe further clues may be found
385
00:24:13,546 --> 00:24:17,497
in the story of a top secret Nazi project
386
00:24:17,617 --> 00:24:20,671
simply known as The Bell.
387
00:24:23,315 --> 00:24:27,138
In a remote valley just
outside Ludwikowice, Poland...
388
00:24:28,839 --> 00:24:32,133
stands a strange circular structure
389
00:24:32,727 --> 00:24:35,380
known as the Henge,
390
00:24:35,855 --> 00:24:37,794
or Fly Trap.
391
00:24:42,532 --> 00:24:45,376
We are in the middle of a valley,
392
00:24:45,386 --> 00:24:47,672
which was taken over by the SS
393
00:24:48,038 --> 00:24:53,827
and transformed into a secret research,
development and industrial facility.
394
00:24:53,947 --> 00:24:56,453
It was closely guarded.
395
00:24:57,331 --> 00:25:01,428
Inside of this valley we
have three security rings,
396
00:25:01,548 --> 00:25:04,867
closing specific areas from each other.
397
00:25:05,874 --> 00:25:08,618
Inside of the innermost circle
398
00:25:08,654 --> 00:25:12,615
this structure stands,
and it's quite mysterious.
399
00:25:15,954 --> 00:25:20,910
Mainstream scholars believe the structure
served as the concrete support base
400
00:25:20,927 --> 00:25:24,503
to a cooling tower used by a coalmine.
401
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,476
But according to Witkowski and others,
402
00:25:27,596 --> 00:25:32,974
the German high command would not have
devoted so many military resources here
403
00:25:33,094 --> 00:25:36,623
if the valley contained
only an energy plant.
404
00:25:37,318 --> 00:25:42,074
They say the Henge was used to
test a new highly advanced machine
405
00:25:42,194 --> 00:25:46,528
known as "Die Glocke," or "The Bell."
406
00:25:46,648 --> 00:25:50,653
The Bell, Die Glocke, was probably one the
407
00:25:50,773 --> 00:25:54,663
top secret projects of the Third Reich.
408
00:25:54,764 --> 00:25:58,574
It was so secret that it's even
unclear on how much Hitler was told.
409
00:25:59,955 --> 00:26:03,137
There's a great deal of
evidence that suggests that, uh,
410
00:26:03,183 --> 00:26:07,161
the scientists, including Hermann Oberth
411
00:26:07,281 --> 00:26:08,890
and Wernher von Braun and others,
412
00:26:08,935 --> 00:26:12,475
were working on a bell shaped craft
413
00:26:12,595 --> 00:26:16,051
that was electromagnetic
in its propulsion system.
414
00:26:22,613 --> 00:26:25,165
Surviving sketches depict The Bell as
415
00:26:25,202 --> 00:26:27,333
having a ceramic covering
416
00:26:27,361 --> 00:26:31,898
and dimensions measuring ten feet
high and five feet in diameter.
417
00:26:32,328 --> 00:26:36,983
Its design appears contrary to
modern aerodynamic principles.
418
00:26:37,477 --> 00:26:40,348
If you're starting to think
about a bell shape for flight,
419
00:26:40,349 --> 00:26:42,809
the... the challenge
you're facing, I think, is
420
00:26:42,827 --> 00:26:46,321
making it aerodynamic for when
you move around side to side
421
00:26:46,349 --> 00:26:47,497
and forward and backward.
422
00:26:47,617 --> 00:26:51,837
'Cause you're presenting a very
large cross-sectional area to the air.
423
00:26:51,882 --> 00:26:54,088
And you're gonna generate a lot of drag.
424
00:26:54,208 --> 00:26:56,072
So you might be very good if you want just,
425
00:26:56,073 --> 00:26:58,066
like, a hovercraft that went up and down.
426
00:26:58,377 --> 00:27:01,160
But once you start moving, I think
you're gonna run into trouble.
427
00:27:01,827 --> 00:27:06,913
But if The Bell was not a new
type of aircraft, then what was it?
428
00:27:07,471 --> 00:27:10,609
According to some ancient
astronaut theorists,
429
00:27:10,729 --> 00:27:13,819
The Bell may have been a time machine.
430
00:27:14,386 --> 00:27:18,182
There is a kind of, uh,
vortices named solitons,
431
00:27:18,219 --> 00:27:22,792
which are vortices isolated
electromagnetically from the outside world.
432
00:27:22,912 --> 00:27:26,039
Recent research and experiments show
433
00:27:26,085 --> 00:27:30,402
that the link between gravity
and electromagnetic physics
434
00:27:30,522 --> 00:27:34,363
is much stronger than the
scientists thought for some time.
435
00:27:35,616 --> 00:27:38,415
The laws of the universe
being universal, if you
436
00:27:38,424 --> 00:27:43,262
take the right electromagnetic
field and very high voltage...
437
00:27:43,382 --> 00:27:45,978
pulse it or phase it in a certain way...
438
00:27:45,987 --> 00:27:48,118
you can get some very strange phenomenon.
439
00:27:48,128 --> 00:27:50,963
You can make things disappear and
reappear. Therefore, it follows to reason
440
00:27:53,149 --> 00:28:00,422
that this would be studied and that the Nazi
Bell was probably an-an attempt by that regime to
441
00:28:00,490 --> 00:28:03,512
develop, uh, some type of flying machine
442
00:28:03,632 --> 00:28:07,107
that would use these sort of
advanced electromagnetic concepts.
443
00:28:09,284 --> 00:28:12,394
But was time travel even a possibility?
444
00:28:12,696 --> 00:28:16,300
According to German-born
physicist Albert Einstein,
445
00:28:16,336 --> 00:28:19,447
humans were theoretically capable of it.
446
00:28:19,749 --> 00:28:21,733
His theory of special relativity
447
00:28:21,733 --> 00:28:25,950
actually showed, for the first time, that
time can slow down when you go very fast.
448
00:28:26,234 --> 00:28:29,855
And so that has an impact
on going into the future.
449
00:28:29,873 --> 00:28:32,965
It allows you to travel
really fast somewhere,
450
00:28:33,085 --> 00:28:35,215
and your time goes
slower than somebody else
451
00:28:35,215 --> 00:28:38,691
and you end up in the future, relative
to what you thought you were doing.
452
00:28:39,669 --> 00:28:42,111
The harder one to think
about is general relativity,
453
00:28:42,139 --> 00:28:45,734
where Einstein talks about gravity
and how to describe gravity.
454
00:28:45,854 --> 00:28:49,255
And there you can start
thinking about space-time
455
00:28:49,274 --> 00:28:53,417
and bending it, and actually by
warping space and time in the right way,
456
00:28:53,444 --> 00:28:56,097
you end up going backwards in time.
457
00:29:01,145 --> 00:29:05,893
While no records exist indicating
The Bell was ever used during the war,
458
00:29:08,234 --> 00:29:11,729
as the Allied military
forces pushed into Germany,
459
00:29:11,930 --> 00:29:14,592
the entire project and its commander...
460
00:29:14,619 --> 00:29:18,716
SS General Hans Kammler...
suddenly disappeared.
461
00:29:19,750 --> 00:29:25,036
SS General Hans Kammler, who was going
to defect in exchange for immunity.
462
00:29:25,594 --> 00:29:29,353
But then, by the end of
the war, he disappeared.
463
00:29:29,371 --> 00:29:33,661
So where did Hans Kammler
go, and what did he take?
464
00:29:34,465 --> 00:29:36,414
I think he took The Bell.
465
00:29:36,825 --> 00:29:39,889
Did he create a wormhole?
Did he create a stargate?
466
00:29:40,122 --> 00:29:43,146
And this is what the Nazis were working on.
467
00:29:45,423 --> 00:29:48,057
Did Kammler and the other Nazis
468
00:29:48,103 --> 00:29:52,749
really use The Bell to escape
justice by disappearing across time?
469
00:29:52,969 --> 00:29:56,262
Or possibly to another planet?
470
00:29:57,881 --> 00:30:02,810
In the spring of 1945,
Germany's war effort collapsed.
471
00:30:03,222 --> 00:30:06,588
And as the Allied armies
advanced towards Berlin,
472
00:30:06,661 --> 00:30:11,088
German scientists and engineers
abandoned their laboratories.
473
00:30:11,208 --> 00:30:14,847
Hitler's search for a wonder weapon failed.
474
00:30:17,134 --> 00:30:22,201
Instead, it was the Americans who
scored the decisive technological edge
475
00:30:22,238 --> 00:30:25,348
with their development of the atomic bomb.
476
00:30:26,994 --> 00:30:29,976
But according ancient astronaut theorists,
477
00:30:30,003 --> 00:30:34,064
a similar and perhaps even
more devastating weapon
478
00:30:34,091 --> 00:30:35,939
had already existed...
479
00:30:36,085 --> 00:30:39,899
unleashed in an area that
is now part of India...
480
00:30:40,019 --> 00:30:43,027
more than 3,000 years ago.
481
00:30:48,158 --> 00:30:53,290
An unmanned aerial vehicle
hurtles across the sky.
482
00:30:54,533 --> 00:30:57,542
It travels at supersonic speeds,
483
00:30:57,817 --> 00:30:59,582
spitting fire,
484
00:31:00,415 --> 00:31:02,747
launching deadly missiles,
485
00:31:03,918 --> 00:31:06,588
programmed to seek and destroy.
486
00:31:07,805 --> 00:31:10,895
The effect is devastating.
487
00:31:11,015 --> 00:31:14,682
High-tech warfare at its most lethal.
488
00:31:14,802 --> 00:31:19,841
But what could be a page stolen
from a U.S. military black project
489
00:31:19,961 --> 00:31:25,795
is actually a description
written down over 2,500 years ago
490
00:31:25,823 --> 00:31:30,570
in the sacred Hindu text
known as the Mahabharata.
491
00:31:31,914 --> 00:31:34,412
When it comes to the
ancient Indian accounts,
492
00:31:34,421 --> 00:31:38,875
they're really eyewitness
testimony of the gods fighting.
493
00:31:40,723 --> 00:31:43,375
When you read the ancient Hindu epics,
494
00:31:43,403 --> 00:31:46,813
they talk about horrific weapons.
495
00:31:46,933 --> 00:31:48,926
Missiles
496
00:31:49,813 --> 00:31:51,999
and atomic weapons,
497
00:31:52,858 --> 00:31:58,685
massive laser weapons that are
melting and devastating entire cities.
498
00:31:59,673 --> 00:32:01,968
I refuse to think
499
00:32:02,088 --> 00:32:06,185
that our ancestors came up with
these stories out of thin air.
500
00:32:06,305 --> 00:32:08,754
When writing was first invented,
501
00:32:08,773 --> 00:32:11,928
they wrote down their history.
502
00:32:12,678 --> 00:32:15,678
The first things that
were ever written down
503
00:32:15,724 --> 00:32:18,111
were actual events.
504
00:32:18,943 --> 00:32:22,692
How is it that some of the
earliest written accounts
505
00:32:22,711 --> 00:32:26,268
of warfare describe sophisticated weaponry
506
00:32:26,388 --> 00:32:30,017
that humans wouldn't develop
for thousands of years?
507
00:32:31,380 --> 00:32:34,682
For the answer, ancient astronaut theorists
508
00:32:34,718 --> 00:32:37,499
point to numerous
descriptions of deadly weapons
509
00:32:37,526 --> 00:32:40,563
found throughout the Mahabharata.
510
00:32:41,651 --> 00:32:46,398
Many strikingly similar to
those used by the military today.
511
00:32:48,008 --> 00:32:52,801
One example are the incendiary
weapons wielded by Vishnu,
512
00:32:54,282 --> 00:32:57,831
which are specially equipped
to find their targets.
513
00:32:57,951 --> 00:33:02,560
Vishnu has a flying guided
missile, the Narayanastra.
514
00:33:03,201 --> 00:33:08,560
And once it is launched, it will
destroy everything that is moving.
515
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,047
So, you know, according to the description,
516
00:33:11,075 --> 00:33:14,093
it is a motion detecting weapon,
517
00:33:15,447 --> 00:33:19,343
which is pretty much
like our modern weaponry.
518
00:33:20,276 --> 00:33:23,990
There is also a weapon
that is heat-seeking.
519
00:33:25,078 --> 00:33:27,164
Heat-seeking is a very effective way
520
00:33:27,182 --> 00:33:28,271
of finding something.
521
00:33:28,289 --> 00:33:30,675
You would fire a missile
from behind one aircraft
522
00:33:30,676 --> 00:33:32,478
at an aircraft in front of you,
523
00:33:32,598 --> 00:33:35,331
specifically targeted
against the hot engine.
524
00:33:36,447 --> 00:33:39,987
And then you were able to move
off from behind the airplane,
525
00:33:40,023 --> 00:33:43,389
and the heat-seeker would still
be able to find the target.
526
00:33:45,136 --> 00:33:46,946
I am aware
527
00:33:46,974 --> 00:33:50,632
that there are forces of nature.
528
00:33:51,611 --> 00:33:54,318
You've got thunder, lightning,
529
00:33:54,438 --> 00:33:58,791
earthquakes. But how would
you go from witnessing that
530
00:33:58,827 --> 00:34:03,263
to a description of heat-seeking missiles?
531
00:34:04,745 --> 00:34:07,032
In addition to guided missiles,
532
00:34:07,068 --> 00:34:12,099
the Mahabharata is filled with
accounts of other sophisticated weapons
533
00:34:12,117 --> 00:34:13,865
wielded by the gods.
534
00:34:13,985 --> 00:34:15,711
In the Mahabharata,
535
00:34:19,534 --> 00:34:22,442
And each one has a specific function.
536
00:34:22,735 --> 00:34:27,372
The Pashupatastra is a weapon that actually
multiplies into seven different arrows.
537
00:34:27,701 --> 00:34:30,821
So then it hits seven different
targets at the same time.
538
00:34:31,782 --> 00:34:34,416
Salva is an anti-god.
539
00:34:34,536 --> 00:34:37,535
He can make his vehicle disappear.
540
00:34:37,655 --> 00:34:41,587
So we're talking about a
flying object that is stealth.
541
00:34:42,136 --> 00:34:44,898
And he also can put people into sleep.
542
00:34:45,748 --> 00:34:49,416
So we're perhaps talking about nerve gas.
543
00:34:49,536 --> 00:34:52,764
They talk about weapons
that are so high-tech,
544
00:34:52,884 --> 00:34:56,852
that it's... Could only
be from extraterrestrials.
545
00:34:58,050 --> 00:35:01,562
But of all the weapons
described in the Mahabharata,
546
00:35:01,682 --> 00:35:05,861
perhaps the most deadly was a
device called the Brahmastra.
547
00:35:06,108 --> 00:35:10,746
A weapon that the texts
warned was never to be used.
548
00:35:10,783 --> 00:35:14,836
Brahmastra is described
as the ultimate weapon.
549
00:35:15,092 --> 00:35:19,353
Once it is launched, it
will simply burn everything.
550
00:35:19,473 --> 00:35:22,244
So it will incinerate the entire universe.
551
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:30,036
We're talking about a nuclear blast
552
00:35:30,073 --> 00:35:35,286
a hundredfold magnitude of the bomb that we
have seen or experienced in our own times.
553
00:35:35,406 --> 00:35:36,951
Should never be used.
554
00:35:36,951 --> 00:35:42,000
And... and yet someone was going
to make use of that Brahmastra.
555
00:35:42,567 --> 00:35:48,403
So that's the dilemma that the
books talks about in the Mahabharata.
556
00:35:48,970 --> 00:35:51,998
India now has a rocket program,
557
00:35:52,034 --> 00:35:55,821
and one of their rockets is called Shakti.
558
00:35:55,867 --> 00:35:58,117
Shakti means goddess energy.
559
00:35:58,237 --> 00:36:01,153
This is also another divine weapon.
560
00:36:02,114 --> 00:36:06,285
Indians are now sort of going back
to their text or their mythology
561
00:36:06,321 --> 00:36:10,533
and they're reliving it
by their modern technology.
562
00:36:13,704 --> 00:36:19,254
Is it possible that alien beings
visiting the earth thousands of years ago
563
00:36:19,300 --> 00:36:22,565
dealt with the same issues
of nuclear annihilation
564
00:36:22,583 --> 00:36:25,474
that humans are dealing with today?
565
00:36:26,315 --> 00:36:31,254
And might the deadly weapons currently
being deployed by the world's military
566
00:36:31,374 --> 00:36:35,205
really be recreations of
weapons first used on earth
567
00:36:35,205 --> 00:36:38,617
by extraterrestrials in the ancient past?
568
00:36:39,752 --> 00:36:41,069
Perhaps.
569
00:36:41,408 --> 00:36:43,933
But then it should also be possible
570
00:36:43,951 --> 00:36:46,585
to predict mankind's military future
571
00:36:46,613 --> 00:36:50,637
by searching through
still more ancient texts.
572
00:36:56,527 --> 00:36:58,558
May, 2010.
573
00:36:58,577 --> 00:37:01,558
Off the coast of California.
574
00:37:01,678 --> 00:37:05,931
A powerful new weapon shoots
down unmanned aerial drones
575
00:37:05,967 --> 00:37:09,745
during secret testing
carried out by the U.S. Navy.
576
00:37:10,413 --> 00:37:12,188
Firing from a warship
577
00:37:12,197 --> 00:37:14,868
at a distance of nearly two miles,
578
00:37:15,097 --> 00:37:17,850
a ray of intense laser energy
579
00:37:17,869 --> 00:37:20,448
burns through targets traveling at speeds
580
00:37:20,457 --> 00:37:23,027
of more than 300 miles per hour.
581
00:37:24,143 --> 00:37:28,122
But is it possible that
such so-called death rays
582
00:37:28,149 --> 00:37:30,326
could have been used before?
583
00:37:30,363 --> 00:37:33,665
Perhaps in ancient times?
584
00:37:33,766 --> 00:37:37,231
I'm quite convinced that there
have been, in... in the past,
585
00:37:37,269 --> 00:37:40,862
advanced civilizations on Earth
that did have such things as
586
00:37:40,982 --> 00:37:43,158
the so-called death ray.
587
00:37:43,542 --> 00:37:45,188
Whether it was used as a weapon
588
00:37:45,224 --> 00:37:47,657
or whether it was just observed being used
589
00:37:47,694 --> 00:37:50,054
is a very, very open question.
590
00:37:51,755 --> 00:37:54,747
In 214 BC,
591
00:37:54,867 --> 00:37:58,250
Greeks living in the
Sicilian city of Syracuse
592
00:37:58,250 --> 00:38:02,101
prepared for an attack by
a fleet of Roman warships.
593
00:38:02,338 --> 00:38:05,896
Though outnumbered by a
superior military force,
594
00:38:05,987 --> 00:38:09,042
ancient texts suggest that Syracuse
595
00:38:09,042 --> 00:38:13,688
was well defended by a mysterious
and powerful new weapon.
596
00:38:14,951 --> 00:38:18,664
Probably the most famous ancient death ray
597
00:38:18,710 --> 00:38:23,119
was the one that was built by
the Greek inventor Archimedes.
598
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,878
He was able to create this giant mirror
599
00:38:26,988 --> 00:38:33,079
and parabolic disc and focus
the sun's rays on the fleet
600
00:38:33,199 --> 00:38:35,412
and set these ships on fire.
601
00:38:37,891 --> 00:38:43,195
So here we have what would be a primitive
kind of death ray that really worked.
602
00:38:46,223 --> 00:38:49,360
But how could Archimedes have conceived
603
00:38:49,369 --> 00:38:51,280
such a formidable weapon?
604
00:38:51,317 --> 00:38:55,122
One far in advance of
any known at the time?
605
00:38:55,533 --> 00:39:00,134
Researchers suggest the inventor
may have drawn inspiration
606
00:39:00,162 --> 00:39:05,274
from Greek myths written nearly 600
years before the battle of Syracuse.
607
00:39:05,530 --> 00:39:08,804
Myths that told the stories of gods
608
00:39:08,805 --> 00:39:13,131
that brandished cosmic weapons
of incredible destructive force.
609
00:39:15,153 --> 00:39:17,476
If you look in the Greek tradition,
610
00:39:17,494 --> 00:39:20,905
they have a very clear
description of Zeus' thunderbolt,
611
00:39:22,094 --> 00:39:25,241
which he was able to point at people or at
612
00:39:25,361 --> 00:39:27,867
other things that he wanted to explode,
613
00:39:27,987 --> 00:39:31,717
hit the button, and what they
described as lightning would come out
614
00:39:31,717 --> 00:39:34,827
and create a fierce and terrible explosion.
615
00:39:37,864 --> 00:39:40,315
But if death ray type weapons
616
00:39:40,361 --> 00:39:43,114
had been used in ancient times,
617
00:39:43,123 --> 00:39:46,041
might there be some sort of tangible proof?
618
00:39:46,059 --> 00:39:48,355
Perhaps there is.
619
00:39:48,877 --> 00:39:52,627
Here, scattered throughout
the Scottish countryside,
620
00:39:52,747 --> 00:39:55,499
can be found numerous ancient ruins.
621
00:39:55,857 --> 00:39:59,434
Many appear to have been
forts or other enclosures,
622
00:39:59,470 --> 00:40:02,031
dating back thousands of years.
623
00:40:02,151 --> 00:40:07,181
Remarkably, they also appear to
have been subjected to fire and heat
624
00:40:07,301 --> 00:40:12,559
so intense it practically turned
the stone structures into glass.
625
00:40:12,870 --> 00:40:17,214
It's a process more scientifically
known as vitrification.
626
00:40:18,540 --> 00:40:21,111
Here you have these stone buildings
627
00:40:21,138 --> 00:40:24,165
in which an analysis of the outside
628
00:40:24,202 --> 00:40:27,650
comes to the conclusion
that they were heated
629
00:40:27,696 --> 00:40:30,823
to over 1,000 degrees
Celsius in temperature.
630
00:40:31,098 --> 00:40:34,171
Conventional fire could
not have reached this heat.
631
00:40:34,180 --> 00:40:39,961
You needed a sustained burn at 1,000
degrees Celsius for a long period of time.
632
00:40:42,605 --> 00:40:44,846
According to Celtic legend,
633
00:40:44,865 --> 00:40:48,249
there once was a god named Lugh,
634
00:40:48,369 --> 00:40:50,717
also known as the Shining One,
635
00:40:50,763 --> 00:40:53,470
the Sun God, and the God of War.
636
00:40:56,105 --> 00:40:58,236
Like the Greek god Zeus,
637
00:40:58,273 --> 00:41:01,410
Lugh was said to wield a mighty magic spear
638
00:41:01,530 --> 00:41:05,471
not unlike the thunderbolts
of his Greek counterpart.
639
00:41:05,709 --> 00:41:07,859
When battle was near,
640
00:41:07,887 --> 00:41:10,631
Lugh would draw out his spear,
641
00:41:10,658 --> 00:41:16,238
and it roared and then
flashes of fire came out of it
642
00:41:16,358 --> 00:41:20,162
and it tore through the ranks of the enemy,
643
00:41:20,282 --> 00:41:24,169
never tired of killing and slaying.
644
00:41:26,666 --> 00:41:29,337
It was one amazing weapon.
645
00:41:30,407 --> 00:41:35,483
I mean, how else can we explain
all those numerous vitrified forts
646
00:41:35,603 --> 00:41:40,952
where the surface of the
stone is as smooth as glass?
647
00:41:41,213 --> 00:41:44,235
And these spots can only be found
648
00:41:44,355 --> 00:41:49,522
in very concentrated areas
through Northern Scotland.
649
00:41:50,290 --> 00:41:56,912
All these descriptions of sophisticated
weaponry sounds almost like science fiction.
650
00:41:56,939 --> 00:41:58,293
But is it really?
651
00:41:58,329 --> 00:42:02,207
Because we have those weapons today.
652
00:42:03,442 --> 00:42:07,832
And I think that all the
stuff that we have today
653
00:42:07,841 --> 00:42:09,386
has been around before
654
00:42:09,404 --> 00:42:14,105
and that our past is not
science fiction but science fact.
655
00:42:16,419 --> 00:42:19,136
Deadly laser beams.
656
00:42:19,712 --> 00:42:22,154
Acoustic weapons.
657
00:42:23,142 --> 00:42:24,899
Time machines.
658
00:42:25,439 --> 00:42:27,880
Were these mysterious devices
659
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,614
really in the possession of our ancestors
660
00:42:30,615 --> 00:42:32,755
thousands of years ago?
661
00:42:33,267 --> 00:42:40,090
And if so, could they have been built
with the help of extraterrestrial beings?
662
00:42:40,210 --> 00:42:44,280
Perhaps as our own technology
continues to advance,
663
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,184
we will come closer...
not only to our future...
664
00:42:48,230 --> 00:42:51,120
but to a rediscovery of our past
665
00:42:51,240 --> 00:42:55,409
and a reconnection with
our alien ancestors.
