1
00:00:00,791 --> 00:00:04,356
Ancient cities lost for centuries.

2
00:00:05,349 --> 00:00:09,683
Dozens of people have risked their
lives trying to find where Paititi is.

3
00:00:11,115 --> 00:00:14,196
Treasures hidden
deep underwater.

4
00:00:14,589 --> 00:00:17,617
The local people have told me
not simply that the ships fly

5
00:00:17,618 --> 00:00:20,694
over the lake, but they
actually enter the lake.

6
00:00:21,549 --> 00:00:27,000
And secret chambers buried under
the great Egyptian Sphinx.

7
00:00:29,268 --> 00:00:33,659
Gold was the flesh of the gods.
Egypt had probably the best

8
00:00:33,754 --> 00:00:37,169
supply of gold anywhere
in the ancient world.

9
00:00:37,451 --> 00:00:40,729
Since the dawn of time,
humans have been obsessed

10
00:00:40,730 --> 00:00:42,994
with legends of hidden gold.

11
00:00:44,117 --> 00:00:47,498
But what if our desire for this
precious metal is about

12
00:00:47,499 --> 00:00:49,351
something more than riches?

13
00:00:49,364 --> 00:00:52,812
It almost seems as if we're genetically
programmed to love gold.

14
00:00:52,858 --> 00:00:56,479
Ultimately, gold represents
our connection with the stars.

15
00:00:56,512 --> 00:01:00,150
A number of researchers have
suggested that ancient aliens

16
00:01:00,235 --> 00:01:03,772
have come to Earth
primarily to mine gold.

17
00:01:04,017 --> 00:01:08,527
Millions of people
around the world believe we have

18
00:01:08,595 --> 00:01:12,489
been visited in the past by
extraterrestrial beings.

19
00:01:13,566 --> 00:01:15,262
What if it were true?

20
00:01:16,527 --> 00:01:20,285
Did ancient aliens really help
to shape our history?

21
00:01:21,253 --> 00:01:26,366
And if so, might they have come
here in search of gold?

Lake Guanavita, Colombia.

25
00:02:04,621 --> 00:02:08,884
Believed to be the site of an
ancient meteor crater,

26
00:02:08,885 --> 00:02:12,401
this circular-shaped mountain lake is
at the center of one

27
00:02:12,549 --> 00:02:14,648
of mankind's greatest searches...

28
00:02:17,174 --> 00:02:21,666
the search for El Dorado,
the Lost City of Gold.

29
00:02:23,335 --> 00:02:28,427
Since the 16th century,
El Dorado has been the "Holy Grail"

30
00:02:28,449 --> 00:02:29,661
for fortune hunters.

31
00:02:30,062 --> 00:02:34,223
Legends abound about a place
full of untold riches somewhere

32
00:02:34,273 --> 00:02:36,347
in South America.

33
00:02:37,096 --> 00:02:41,377
Yet to this day, the mythical
city remains undiscovered.

34
00:02:43,011 --> 00:02:47,796
But if such a magnificent place
does exist, how has it eluded

35
00:02:47,825 --> 00:02:50,172
explorers for centuries?

36
00:02:51,091 --> 00:02:56,200
Some believe the answer lies
within this mysterious lake.

37
00:02:59,050 --> 00:03:02,793
The story of El Dorado developed from

38
00:03:02,828 --> 00:03:07,982
the Lake Guatavita that was within the
territory of the Muisca

39
00:03:08,004 --> 00:03:10,304
or the Chicha people

40
00:03:10,405 --> 00:03:15,326
which was a chiefdom.
Not quite as high civilization as Incas

41
00:03:15,361 --> 00:03:22,213
or as the Aztecs, but chiefdom with
civilization itself that had a lot of gold.

42
00:03:27,044 --> 00:03:30,254
The ruler in the southern half
of the Muisca territory was

43
00:03:30,338 --> 00:03:34,414
known as the Zipa, but the
Conquistadores who arrived there

44
00:03:34,501 --> 00:03:38,745
in the 16th century called him
El Dorado, Spanish for

45
00:03:38,757 --> 00:03:40,951
"The Golden One."

46
00:03:43,605 --> 00:03:46,868
They gave him this name after
observing the Muisca's most

47
00:03:46,946 --> 00:03:51,627
sacred ritual. The Zipa would
float out on a royal barge to

48
00:03:51,761 --> 00:03:56,115
the middle of Lake Guatavita to
make offerings of gold to a god

49
00:03:56,229 --> 00:03:59,252
believed to live at the
bottom of the lake.

50
00:04:00,111 --> 00:04:02,929
It was said that the
chief, adorned with

51
00:04:03,071 --> 00:04:07,728
resin and then adorned with
gold dust, would jump into the

52
00:04:07,849 --> 00:04:11,673
water in order to wash the gold
dust off, and then this gold

53
00:04:11,763 --> 00:04:16,388
would accumulate in that lake,
and that golden objects as

54
00:04:16,479 --> 00:04:19,769
sacrifices would be thrown
into that particular lake.

55
00:04:19,878 --> 00:04:25,983
And from that came the belief
of El Dorado around Colombia.

56
00:04:36,515 --> 00:04:40,914
In 1912 an excavation
of Lake Guatavita was

57
00:04:40,995 --> 00:04:46,183
led by British engineer Hartley Knowles.
Knowles reported that he had

58
00:04:46,230 --> 00:04:49,617
recovered around $20,000
worth of treasure...

59
00:04:50,168 --> 00:04:52,559
including golden artifacts.

60
00:04:53,115 --> 00:04:57,832
But he also believed much more
lay beneath the hardened lake bed.

61
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,674
Could Knowles find be evidence
that the story of the Muisca

62
00:05:01,771 --> 00:05:03,976
chief is based on truth?

63
00:05:04,676 --> 00:05:09,666
If so, just who or what
was the so-called god who

64
00:05:09,765 --> 00:05:11,323
dwelled at the bottom of the lake?

65
00:05:12,915 --> 00:05:16,785
A number of researchers
have suggested that ancient aliens

66
00:05:16,820 --> 00:05:19,701
have come to Earth
primarily to mine gold.

67
00:05:21,043 --> 00:05:25,359
Zecharia Sitchin suggested that
these extraterrestrials needed gold

68
00:05:25,494 --> 00:05:29,099
to spend it in the atmosphere
and preserve their planet.

69
00:05:32,465 --> 00:05:36,866
Is gold something that is really important
to space exploration and to astronomy?

70
00:05:36,901 --> 00:05:39,990
Well, it actually is, very important
and the reason why is because gold

71
00:05:40,025 --> 00:05:44,131
is an innert material.
It doesn't react with anything.

72
00:05:44,574 --> 00:05:47,146
The other thing that's very
important about it is that

73
00:05:47,230 --> 00:05:49,970
it is a wonderful
conductor of electricity.

74
00:05:50,310 --> 00:05:54,225
And last but not least is the
fact that gold is a perfect

75
00:05:54,386 --> 00:05:57,670
reflector of infrared energy.

76
00:05:57,829 --> 00:06:02,309
You can use gold blankets to
protect spacecraft against the

77
00:06:02,310 --> 00:06:06,678
the intense heat of a star
or any sort of heat source.

78
00:06:07,614 --> 00:06:10,615
Gold is a very rare
and valuable element

79
00:06:10,623 --> 00:06:14,546
throughout the universe.

80
00:06:16,494 --> 00:06:20,088
Aliens coming to Earth
searching for gold.

81
00:06:20,580 --> 00:06:22,795
Could such a thing be possible?

82
00:06:24,497 --> 00:06:28,357
According to ancient astronaut
theorists, it is not only

83
00:06:28,459 --> 00:06:33,184
possible, but they claim the
proof exists in the numerous

84
00:06:33,267 --> 00:06:36,837
texts and legends of
the ancient world.

85
00:06:37,184 --> 00:06:41,604
Like that of the legendary Incan
city of Paititi, thought to be

86
00:06:41,743 --> 00:06:45,284
located near the
southeastern area of Peru.

87
00:06:47,626 --> 00:06:50,167
The Conquistadors became
obsessed with finding

88
00:06:50,241 --> 00:06:54,272
this mysterious city of gold
that they heard was in the

89
00:06:54,358 --> 00:06:57,018
jungles of Eastern Peru
somewhere.

90
00:06:57,590 --> 00:07:00,866
They called it Paititi,
the Golden City.

91
00:07:01,875 --> 00:07:05,552
Stories of Paititi and El Dorado
ultimately led to the

92
00:07:05,662 --> 00:07:08,503
exploration of the
Amazon jungles.

93
00:07:09,417 --> 00:07:13,790
El Dorado and Paititi
are frequently confused.

94
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:19,753
I see El Dorado as being that
particular gold-producing site

95
00:07:19,770 --> 00:07:24,049
that was in northern South
America, and Paititi having

96
00:07:24,050 --> 00:07:28,323
been another civilization
contemporaneous with the Incas

97
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:34,020
in the area of Peru, Bolivia,
that has yet to be definitively found.

98
00:07:34,133 --> 00:07:38,972
And that's what part of my quest
has been over these last 25 years.

99
00:07:42,115 --> 00:07:46,227
Since 1984, American explorer Gregory

100
00:07:46,297 --> 00:07:51,528
Deyermenjian and his Peruvian
counterpart, Paulino Mamani have

101
00:07:51,649 --> 00:07:57,429
staged more than 15 expeditions
in search of this mythical city of gold.

102
00:08:01,434 --> 00:08:05,722
There is an Incan road of stone leading
towards what is supposed to be,

103
00:08:05,777 --> 00:08:09,386
as legend would have it, Paititi...
that's what we've been following.

104
00:08:09,738 --> 00:08:12,214
They say that Pachamama,
the earth goddess, covers

105
00:08:12,375 --> 00:08:17,977
these areas with such difficulty...
the moss, the jungle, the rivers...

106
00:08:18,001 --> 00:08:20,022
that some things could
be hidden here forever.

107
00:08:21,745 --> 00:08:25,145
Their search began in
Cuzco at the Incan holy

108
00:08:25,196 --> 00:08:29,522
place of Coricancha, which
means, "Golden Courtyard".

109
00:08:33,245 --> 00:08:38,902
In 1559, Spanish Conquistadores
tore down Coricancha

110
00:08:38,984 --> 00:08:41,437
to construct the Cathedral
of Santo Domingo,

111
00:08:41,526 --> 00:08:44,983
and it still sits in the
center of Cuzco today,

112
00:08:45,054 --> 00:08:49,024
surrounded by the ruins of the
ancient Incan temple.

113
00:08:50,231 --> 00:08:53,145
The cathedral features an
enormous altar covered in gold.

114
00:08:56,381 --> 00:09:00,440
But according to the records of
the Conquistadors, it pales in

115
00:09:00,592 --> 00:09:04,903
comparison to the magnificent
Coricancha, which was not only

116
00:09:05,059 --> 00:09:11,291
filled with gold statues but was
also covered in sheets of solid gold.

117
00:09:11,752 --> 00:09:12,599
Gold was important

118
00:09:12,681 --> 00:09:16,043
with the Inca, because it
was the sweat of the Sun.

119
00:09:16,078 --> 00:09:20,930
The Sun was the highest deity
of the Inca and therefore

120
00:09:20,965 --> 00:09:25,162
the sweat of the Sun represented
the most sacred possession imaginable.

121
00:09:26,493 --> 00:09:30,725
Ancient astronaut theorists
believe a golden sun idol

122
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:36,860
called the Punchal that once resided
in Coricancha may provide evidence

123
00:09:36,895 --> 00:09:41,592
that extraterrestrials had
contact with the Inca.

124
00:09:44,593 --> 00:09:50,897
Coricancha was famous for
it's gigantic golden disc

125
00:09:50,932 --> 00:09:57,761
that the ancient Inca worshiped.
That was a symbol of a giant golden disc

126
00:09:57,796 --> 00:10:05,203
that allegedly landed from the sky
in front of the Inca ruler Atahualpa.

127
00:10:06,085 --> 00:10:11,840
And he had direct contact according
to legends with the sky gods.

128
00:10:14,478 --> 00:10:17,822
Could the giant golden
disc that once resided

129
00:10:17,918 --> 00:10:23,514
inside Coricancha have been made
to honor an alien visitor?

130
00:10:25,239 --> 00:10:30,497
And if extraterrestrials did
come to mine gold, might this

131
00:10:30,575 --> 00:10:34,994
also provide evidence
that Paititi is nearby?

132
00:10:38,043 --> 00:10:44,138
In 1533 the Spanish overtook the
city of Cuzco and plundered

133
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,532
the temple of Coricancha
in search of Incan gold.

134
00:10:48,702 --> 00:10:52,689
But according to local legend,
the gold had already been moved

135
00:10:52,711 --> 00:10:58,005
20 miles northwest of the city and
deposited at the bottom of a nearby lake.

136
00:10:59,094 --> 00:11:01,688
Before the entire group
of Spanish were able to

137
00:11:01,750 --> 00:11:05,080
get into Cuzco, the priests
found out about it and they had

138
00:11:05,155 --> 00:11:08,287
all of the gold from all of the
temples brought up to Lake Puray

139
00:11:08,315 --> 00:11:10,348
and thrown into the center.

140
00:11:11,415 --> 00:11:14,746
None of it has been
found, to this day.

141
00:11:15,326 --> 00:11:19,675
The amount of gold at today's
prices would be in the billions.

142
00:11:20,675 --> 00:11:24,335
Perhaps even more
mysterious are the frequent

143
00:11:24,414 --> 00:11:28,773
reports of unusual sightings in
the skies over the area...

144
00:11:30,325 --> 00:11:33,660
sightings that have been
reported for hundreds of years.

145
00:11:38,056 --> 00:11:40,974
The local people of
this area have told me not

146
00:11:41,062 --> 00:11:45,000
simply that the ships fly over the lake,
but they actually enter the lake.

147
00:11:45,814 --> 00:11:49,316
The stories go that there's a
little vortex that opens up just

148
00:11:49,493 --> 00:11:53,107
about the size of the spaceship,
perhaps 20 feet across.

149
00:11:53,316 --> 00:11:56,908
The spaceship enters the lake,
the vortex closes.

150
00:11:56,909 --> 00:12:00,600
Later the vortex opens
and the ship leaves again.

151
00:12:04,515 --> 00:12:07,351
If, as the local inhabitants
claim, strange...

152
00:12:07,407 --> 00:12:12,374
possibly alien... spacecraft
really do come to this area,

153
00:12:12,676 --> 00:12:16,245
might there be a connection
between the visitations

154
00:12:16,349 --> 00:12:20,197
and the legends of gold hidden
at the bottom of Lake Puray?

155
00:12:20,357 --> 00:12:23,342
Dozens of people
have risked their lives,

156
00:12:23,514 --> 00:12:26,717
in some cases actually have died,
trying to find where Paititi is.

157
00:12:26,891 --> 00:12:31,210
You have the standard treasure hunt
which just goes for the monetary value.

158
00:12:31,245 --> 00:12:34,171
You have certain people who go to it
because they know that that name

159
00:12:34,268 --> 00:12:37,547
will be immortalized forever after.
But you also have people who go in search

160
00:12:37,582 --> 00:12:41,978
of this because they know that if you
find a treasure you will literally prove

161
00:12:42,013 --> 00:12:44,491
that a legend is factual.

162
00:12:48,223 --> 00:12:53,169
Perhaps the greater
mystery is not if or where the

163
00:12:53,264 --> 00:12:57,648
mythical cities of El Dorado and
Paititi may be discovered...

164
00:12:59,411 --> 00:13:03,545
but what might be revealed
once they are found.

165
00:13:10,291 --> 00:13:14,971
Tokyo lmperial University,
March 1924.

166
00:13:16,012 --> 00:13:19,141
In an early experiment with
nuclear energy,

167
00:13:19,388 --> 00:13:25,074
Professor Hantaro Nagaoka directs
150,000 volts of electricity

168
00:13:25,229 --> 00:13:29,590
at a mercury isotope under a
dielectric layer of paraffin oil

169
00:13:29,644 --> 00:13:31,262
for four hours.

170
00:13:32,116 --> 00:13:37,020
The purpose... to strike out a
hydrogen proton from the nucleus

171
00:13:37,033 --> 00:13:40,382
of the mercury and
produce a new element...

172
00:13:42,328 --> 00:13:43,855
gold.

173
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,194
The experiment is a success.

174
00:13:46,976 --> 00:13:50,263
Professor Nagaoka has solved
a mystery that has eluded

175
00:13:50,337 --> 00:13:56,998
scientists for centuries...
the mystery of the philosopher's stone.

176
00:13:58,516 --> 00:14:00,833
The philosopher's stone
was an idea

177
00:14:00,834 --> 00:14:03,767
that you could have
a magic kind of material

178
00:14:03,768 --> 00:14:10,809
that would turn, led or some
very inexpensive metal into gold.

179
00:14:11,598 --> 00:14:16,613
The thought that one could do
that is attractive in and of itself.

180
00:14:18,345 --> 00:14:21,732
For thousands of
years, kings sought out

181
00:14:21,822 --> 00:14:26,663
this mythical device... one that
could create gold out of common metal.

182
00:14:26,974 --> 00:14:31,482
Scientists and alchemists spent
centuries trying to invent one.

183
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,657
Even Sir Isaac Newton obsessed
over the mystery

184
00:14:35,745 --> 00:14:39,571
of the philosopher's stone
in the 17th century,

185
00:14:39,674 --> 00:14:43,184
although the English Crown, fearing
the potential devaluation of gold,

186
00:14:43,374 --> 00:14:48,275
had made the practice of alchemy
punishable by death.

187
00:14:49,739 --> 00:14:54,664
By the time of Professor Nagaoka's
experiment in 1924,

188
00:14:54,681 --> 00:14:58,851
most of the scientific community
had declared the process

189
00:14:58,972 --> 00:15:02,697
of producing gold from
another metal impossible.

190
00:15:03,155 --> 00:15:07,322
But that quickly changed once
they knew where to look.

191
00:15:07,808 --> 00:15:11,574
The secret of alchemy
lies in the stars.

192
00:15:13,119 --> 00:15:15,531
When you think about how
gold's made, naturally gold

193
00:15:15,566 --> 00:15:18,856
is formed basically in the
nuclear reactions in the sun.

194
00:15:18,891 --> 00:15:22,095
And then is spread through the
universe when a supernova occurs and

195
00:15:22,130 --> 00:15:25,457
the sun explodes and sends
all of the products out.

196
00:15:26,205 --> 00:15:29,171
Because we now can do controlled
nuclear reactions, we have

197
00:15:29,322 --> 00:15:33,758
the ability, finally, to essentially
manufacture gold from other elements.

198
00:15:37,621 --> 00:15:41,422
Here, at the University
of California, lrvine,

199
00:15:41,423 --> 00:15:47,029
Dr. A.J. Shaka conducts experiments
in alchemy nearly every day.

200
00:15:47,285 --> 00:15:50,504
We put mercury into
one of these tubes,

201
00:15:50,564 --> 00:15:56,088
and mercury has
a minor isotope of .15%...

202
00:15:56,131 --> 00:16:02,020
mercury 196 it's called...
and that isotope will actually pick up

203
00:16:02,110 --> 00:16:06,232
a neutron and, in about
23 hours, turn into gold.

204
00:16:10,468 --> 00:16:15,200
To bring the reactor to full capacity,
Dr. Shaka removes the control rods

205
00:16:15,374 --> 00:16:20,324
that absorb neutrons and keep
them from reacting with other atoms.

206
00:16:20,374 --> 00:16:23,682
This generates power
at a staggering rate.

207
00:16:24,101 --> 00:16:27,334
In terms of the amount of power,

208
00:16:27,453 --> 00:16:29,027
including electrical energy,
that you can generate

209
00:16:29,149 --> 00:16:34,516
from a given mass of material,
nuclear is about ten to 20

210
00:16:34,671 --> 00:16:38,672
million times better than
anything else.

211
00:16:39,250 --> 00:16:43,165
After 24 hours, the
experiment has been a success

212
00:16:43,205 --> 00:16:49,214
and yields gold, a real-life
philosopher's stone at work

213
00:16:49,261 --> 00:16:51,859
in the basement of a small
university building.

214
00:16:52,896 --> 00:16:56,446
The discovery of alchemy has
been invaluable to science,

215
00:16:56,613 --> 00:17:01,000
but ironically it has not
produced untold riches.

216
00:17:02,124 --> 00:17:06,529
If you irradiate for
about a day in our reactor,

217
00:17:06,668 --> 00:17:10,321
you make three-tenths of
a cent worth of gold.

218
00:17:10,447 --> 00:17:15,630
Since we charge $200 an hour
to operate the reactor,

219
00:17:15,662 --> 00:17:17,833
you're pretty far in the hole.

220
00:17:18,159 --> 00:17:20,674
But while modern-day
alchemy is considered far

221
00:17:20,893 --> 00:17:25,400
too inefficient to create vast
new caches of gold, ancient

222
00:17:25,539 --> 00:17:29,610
astronaut theorists believe a
much greater technology than

223
00:17:29,694 --> 00:17:33,372
our own may have been at work
thousands of years ago,

224
00:17:34,095 --> 00:17:41,236
in ancient Egypt. Another place where
gold was linked to the gods.

225
00:17:42,386 --> 00:17:47,181
The idea of gold being some sort
of divine metal, divine element

226
00:17:47,216 --> 00:17:52,110
is very much in grain in the
ancient Egyptian system of belief.

227
00:17:52,145 --> 00:17:57,884
Gold was the flesh of the gods.
So therefore very great significance.

228
00:17:58,496 --> 00:18:03,723
Egypt had probably the best supply
of gold anywhere in the ancient world.

229
00:18:04,597 --> 00:18:07,656
And we find that in some of the
letters which survived between

230
00:18:07,691 --> 00:18:12,340
kings of Babylon, Assyria and
others and Egypt, a lot of them

231
00:18:12,467 --> 00:18:16,634
are begging letters, basically
saying to the Egyptian king, you

232
00:18:16,781 --> 00:18:19,377
you know, "Oh, my brother,
the pharaoh, please send me gold,

233
00:18:19,439 --> 00:18:24,537
lots of gold, because gold is as dust
in the land of my brother, the pharaoh."

234
00:18:28,412 --> 00:18:31,198
But just how did gold
come to be so much more

235
00:18:31,281 --> 00:18:35,182
abundant in ancient Egypt
than in neighboring lands?

236
00:18:35,644 --> 00:18:40,760
And why did the Egyptians view the metal
as something not of this world?

237
00:18:42,169 --> 00:18:47,364
According to ancient astronaut theorists,
it is entirely possible that the Egyptians

238
00:18:47,426 --> 00:18:50,807
were capable of actually
manufacturing gold...

239
00:18:51,613 --> 00:18:54,904
and may have received
otherworldly help to do so.

240
00:18:56,230 --> 00:18:59,712
If alchemical transmutations can
be performed in a modest

241
00:18:59,857 --> 00:19:03,437
facility like the one at the
University of California, lrvine,

242
00:19:03,573 --> 00:19:07,991
what might be possible
with a larger reactor?

243
00:19:08,750 --> 00:19:14,666
A reactor, perhaps, the size of
the Great Pyramid at Giza.

244
00:19:15,425 --> 00:19:18,792
Christopher Dunne has suggested
that the Giza pyramid

245
00:19:18,827 --> 00:19:24,063
is some kind of giant machine
and some kind of chemical reaction

246
00:19:24,098 --> 00:19:27,094
was taking place inside the pyramid.

247
00:19:28,152 --> 00:19:32,801
It's possible that the Giza pyramid
was actually being used to

248
00:19:32,836 --> 00:19:35,462
transmute other elements into gold.

249
00:19:36,697 --> 00:19:41,282
Looking into the blueprints
of the internal arrangements,

250
00:19:41,317 --> 00:19:46,573
passageways, chambers and shafts,
the appearance of it to me

251
00:19:46,608 --> 00:19:50,460
did not resemble anything
that would be used as a tomb.

252
00:19:51,102 --> 00:19:53,156
The precision with
which it was built,

253
00:19:53,265 --> 00:19:56,439
the precision of the stones
that go into building,

254
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,731
the queen's chamber,
the grand gallery,

255
00:19:58,775 --> 00:20:01,440
and then, also, thousands and
thousands of tons of granite

256
00:20:01,504 --> 00:20:05,694
that were brought down the Nile
500 miles to build the king's chamber.

257
00:20:05,805 --> 00:20:09,117
These are the features that
really shout out and say:

258
00:20:09,193 --> 00:20:11,907
There's something going on here,
there's something different.

259
00:20:12,922 --> 00:20:17,329
It was built like a machine,
perhaps it functioned like a machine.

260
00:20:20,092 --> 00:20:23,239
Could it be that
the Great Pyramid was the

261
00:20:23,318 --> 00:20:25,317
original philosopher's stone?

262
00:20:26,690 --> 00:20:30,990
If so, how could an ancient
civilization have constructed

263
00:20:31,091 --> 00:20:33,407
the equivalent of
a nuclear reactor?

264
00:20:35,950 --> 00:20:39,200
Might the centuries-old search
for the philosopher's stone

265
00:20:39,339 --> 00:20:43,797
represent more than just a
desire for gold and riches?

266
00:20:44,765 --> 00:20:48,349
Could it represent... as ancient
astronaut theorists suggest...

267
00:20:48,422 --> 00:20:51,133
the search for lost technology?

268
00:20:52,953 --> 00:20:55,974
Perhaps the key to that
knowledge still lies hidden

269
00:20:55,988 --> 00:21:00,111
somewhere here on Earth and
can be found in areas still

270
00:21:00,213 --> 00:21:03,272
containing vast amounts
of hidden treasure.

271
00:21:14,483 --> 00:21:18,700
1936.
The Giza Plateau, Egypt.

272
00:21:19,570 --> 00:21:21,891
For more than 3,000 years,

273
00:21:21,998 --> 00:21:26,022
the body of the Great Sphinx had
been buried beneath the sand.

274
00:21:26,971 --> 00:21:31,050
But after 11 years of work,
Egyptian archaeologists uncover

275
00:21:31,109 --> 00:21:36,346
the entire monument for the
first time since antiquity.

276
00:21:36,544 --> 00:21:41,656
At 241 feet long
and 66 feet high,

277
00:21:41,734 --> 00:21:46,822
it is the largest and oldest
monolithic statue in the world.

278
00:21:51,121 --> 00:21:53,986
Even more incredible is it's shape.

279
00:21:54,278 --> 00:21:58,751
The Sphinx has the head of a man
and the body of a lion.

280
00:21:59,532 --> 00:22:03,470
Although egyptologists date the
construction of The Great Sphinx

281
00:22:03,546 --> 00:22:09,374
to the reign of the Pharaoh Khafra,
in approximately 2500 B.C.

282
00:22:10,452 --> 00:22:15,773
Others claim its construction
could be much, much older.

283
00:22:18,242 --> 00:22:25,298
The orthodox date about 2500 BC
tagged on these monuments,

284
00:22:25,327 --> 00:22:29,110
has been challenged by a
group of researchers including myself.

285
00:22:29,111 --> 00:22:34,674
would argue that the erosion in the Sphinx
suggest much, much older Sphinx.

286
00:22:41,679 --> 00:22:47,147
Although egyptologists have found
no agreement as to when or why

287
00:22:47,218 --> 00:22:51,941
the strange monument was built.
Ancient astronaut theorists

288
00:22:51,958 --> 00:22:54,120
believe it may over prove
of extraterrestrials

289
00:22:54,137 --> 00:22:56,226
being present in ancient Egypt.

290
00:23:03,555 --> 00:23:09,148
We see in many ancient Sumerian
and Egyptian inscriptions

291
00:23:09,149 --> 00:23:13,451
of sphinxes half man, half animal
of some kind and it varies

292
00:23:13,619 --> 00:23:17,595
to a degree of different combinations
of animals and human beings.

293
00:23:18,178 --> 00:23:21,575
We have to wonder why would they
be doing this and logically

294
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,435
it starts to make more sense when we
realize a lot of these ancient techs,

295
00:23:25,810 --> 00:23:30,019
explain that extraterrestrials came here
and created those in their image

296
00:23:30,255 --> 00:23:32,124
and after their likeness.

297
00:23:34,626 --> 00:23:37,726
If you believe the work
of the late Zecharia Sitchin

298
00:23:38,027 --> 00:23:41,727
where he believes that the
Anunnaki, came from a planet

299
00:23:41,728 --> 00:23:46,528
that is somewhere out in our Solar system
and that they came here to mine for gold.

300
00:23:46,729 --> 00:23:49,829
But they figured they are not
gonna do the work by themselves.

301
00:23:49,930 --> 00:23:54,330
So they decided to take what creatures
were on this planet at that time

302
00:23:54,431 --> 00:23:58,231
genetically altered them
and make mankind.

303
00:23:58,927 --> 00:24:03,227
If that is the case, it is very possible
that they are using genetic alterations,

304
00:24:03,228 --> 00:24:05,428
to experiment with,
not only just humanity

305
00:24:05,429 --> 00:24:08,529
but a mixing of other
species with humanity.

306
00:24:12,828 --> 00:24:17,928
Could the Great Sphinx be the evidence
of genetic engineering by ancient aliens?

307
00:24:18,029 --> 00:24:24,729
And if as Zecharia Sitchin proposed
extraterrestrials were genetically

308
00:24:24,730 --> 00:24:28,230
altering humans and animals
for the purpose of mining gold.

309
00:24:29,024 --> 00:24:32,024
Might this enormous
structure have at one point

310
00:24:32,025 --> 00:24:34,425
been repository for that gold?

311
00:24:38,826 --> 00:24:45,826
Is it possible that when Egyptian archeologists
began excavating the Great Sphinx

312
00:24:45,927 --> 00:24:48,427
what they were really
searching for was gold?

313
00:24:50,628 --> 00:24:55,828
Over the centuries, secret chambers,
shafts and elaborate tunnel systems,

314
00:24:55,829 --> 00:24:59,329
have indeed been discovered
all around the Giza Plateau.

315
00:25:00,430 --> 00:25:02,830
A shaft was discovered,
called the Osirian Shaft

316
00:25:02,831 --> 00:25:06,331
which led under the Giza Plateau
behind the Sphinx.

317
00:25:06,528 --> 00:25:09,628
Now, in that shaft there
are various passageways,

318
00:25:09,629 --> 00:25:11,229
that lead seemingly nowhere.

319
00:25:11,430 --> 00:25:17,030
In recent years, ground-penetrating
radar, or GPR scans

320
00:25:17,124 --> 00:25:21,724
have been conducted which reveals evidence
of numerous underground cavities

321
00:25:21,725 --> 00:25:26,825
located not only around the Sphinx
but underneath it as well.

322
00:25:28,926 --> 00:25:34,826
From a scientific point of view, a lot about
speculation and theories,

323
00:25:34,827 --> 00:25:35,727
and legends and so forth,
there was a very first time

324
00:25:35,728 --> 00:25:38,228
that there's some strong indication that

325
00:25:38,229 --> 00:25:42,229
there might be these hidden tunnels
and chambers under the Sphinx.

326
00:25:43,630 --> 00:25:47,730
And according to this, they
found very strong evidence

327
00:25:47,731 --> 00:25:50,031
of what looks like
artificial chambers.

328
00:25:52,529 --> 00:25:56,829
It is not a question as to whether or not,
there is a secret underground passage

329
00:25:56,830 --> 00:25:58,530
underneath the Giza Plateau.

330
00:25:59,619 --> 00:26:03,919
The question is can we get access to this,
and of course a more important question is

331
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:08,520
if there is something of extraordinary value
or even something which defies science

332
00:26:08,521 --> 00:26:10,021
which may even be of
an extraterrestrial nature.

333
00:26:19,022 --> 00:26:22,222
If the alleged cavities
under the sphinx

334
00:26:22,223 --> 00:26:27,123
contain not only gold, but gold
mined by ancient alien beings

335
00:26:27,124 --> 00:26:30,524
might it also contain
something even more

336
00:26:30,525 --> 00:26:32,725
than just material treasure.

337
00:26:36,126 --> 00:26:40,526
Ancient astronauts theories believe
an elaborate secret depository

338
00:26:40,527 --> 00:26:45,727
is located under the Sphinx's paws
known as the Hall of Records.

339
00:26:46,229 --> 00:26:52,329
It dates back to the fall of Atlantis,
which according to ancient texts,

340
00:26:52,330 --> 00:26:56,230
it's said to have occurred
nearly 12,000 years ago.

341
00:26:57,331 --> 00:27:01,531
They also claim that there were
extraterrestrials living in Atlantis.

342
00:27:01,532 --> 00:27:07,208
and they needed a repository to house
all their accumulated knowledge.

343
00:27:09,809 --> 00:27:13,009
The Hall of Record was made
by us but with the tools,

344
00:27:13,010 --> 00:27:15,110
the knowledge of extraterrestrials.

345
00:27:16,311 --> 00:27:20,811
It is speculated that a group
of survivors of Atlantis,

346
00:27:20,912 --> 00:27:26,612
came to Egypt at about 10,500 BC brought
along with their records, their knowledge

347
00:27:26,613 --> 00:27:31,213
and built this storeroom
somewhere at Giza.

348
00:27:36,115 --> 00:27:40,215
If archeologists do some day
unearth secret chambers

349
00:27:40,216 --> 00:27:43,716
below the Sphinx,
what will they find?

350
00:27:43,717 --> 00:27:49,417
Gold, a library of ancient
extraterrestrial knowledge

351
00:27:49,418 --> 00:27:53,118
or might they perhaps find both.

352
00:27:53,219 --> 00:27:57,019
My personal view is that it would
be loaded with gold technology,

353
00:27:57,020 --> 00:27:59,920
technology that once
belonged to the Gods

354
00:27:59,921 --> 00:28:02,321
that will help us answer
who built the pyramids,

355
00:28:02,322 --> 00:28:06,022
how they built it and likely
there's a portal, or gateway

356
00:28:06,023 --> 00:28:08,923
that leads us to the stars
within this Hall of Records.

357
00:28:13,324 --> 00:28:18,224
If the Hall of Records really does
exist, is it possible that it contains

358
00:28:18,225 --> 00:28:19,825
is it possible that it contains
extra-terrestrial knowledge

359
00:28:19,826 --> 00:28:27,726
not on ancient scrolls,
but stored on gold?

360
00:28:28,227 --> 00:28:30,027
Gold is a pretty amazing metal.

361
00:28:30,028 --> 00:28:33,028
Gold is one of the best conductors
of electricity we have

362
00:28:33,029 --> 00:28:36,129
which is obviously very important
in electronic applications,

363
00:28:36,130 --> 00:28:39,630
Not you only need a really good conductor,
but you need one that won't corrode.

364
00:28:39,631 --> 00:28:46,108
And so gold when you really really need
high-quality, long-lasting, good electronics,

365
00:28:46,109 --> 00:28:49,109
it's really the choice
that you would make.

366
00:28:51,910 --> 00:28:55,210
Is the ancient knowledge,
not only stored with gold

367
00:28:55,211 --> 00:29:01,111
but stored on gold, really the mysterious
secret of this precious metal?

368
00:29:01,712 --> 00:29:05,812
Perhaps the answer lies
hidden 18,000 miles away

369
00:29:05,813 --> 00:29:11,013
deep beneath the church
in Rennes-Le-Ch�teau, France.

370
00:29:16,914 --> 00:29:19,514
The village of Rennes-Le-Ch�teau, France

371
00:29:19,515 --> 00:29:24,315
January 29th, 1953

372
00:29:26,216 --> 00:29:32,116
Marie D�narnaud, a frail 85-year-old
woman, lies on her deathbed

373
00:29:32,117 --> 00:29:37,118
promising to divulge a long held
secret about a vast treasure.

374
00:29:38,319 --> 00:29:42,419
But a recent stroke has left
her unable to speak or write

375
00:29:42,420 --> 00:29:45,320
and her secret dies with her.

376
00:29:45,821 --> 00:29:49,721
Before Marie's death,
she had promised to tell someone

377
00:29:49,722 --> 00:29:53,522
the secret. I will tell you the
secret, and you will be rich

378
00:29:53,523 --> 00:29:55,323
beyond your wildest dreams.

379
00:29:58,124 --> 00:30:00,824
And what she said was
the people of this village

380
00:30:00,825 --> 00:30:04,225
walk on enough gold to make
them wealthy for a 100 years

381
00:30:04,226 --> 00:30:05,926
and they have no idea.

382
00:30:06,327 --> 00:30:10,027
And the secret, she was
never able to speak it

383
00:30:10,028 --> 00:30:13,928
after she had her stroke.
So what was Marie talking about?

384
00:30:15,330 --> 00:30:19,530
Legends of a vast gold treasure
hidden at Renne-le-chateau

385
00:30:19,531 --> 00:30:27,631
date all the way back to the 5th century,
when after sacking Rome, in 410 AD.

386
00:30:27,632 --> 00:30:33,616
Germanic warriors known as the Visigoths
made their way to the area

387
00:30:33,617 --> 00:30:36,517
with all the stolen treasure
they could carry.

388
00:30:37,718 --> 00:30:41,518
But when they abandoned the region,
some 200 years later

389
00:30:41,519 --> 00:30:45,619
they reportedly left some of
their ill-gotten wealth behind.

390
00:30:48,420 --> 00:30:51,320
The Visigoths were known to have
buried treasure with their dead.

391
00:30:51,321 --> 00:30:55,421
So when Rennes-Le-Ch�teau became
significant because of this idea

392
00:30:55,422 --> 00:30:57,322
that there might be
gold buried there.

393
00:30:58,123 --> 00:31:02,423
For hundreds of years, the rumors
of buried treasure persisted

394
00:31:02,424 --> 00:31:07,524
although no tangible evidence
of it was ever found.

395
00:31:09,225 --> 00:31:14,325
But then in 1891,
a young parish priest

396
00:31:14,326 --> 00:31:18,226
named B�renger Sauni�re,
was restoring the local church

397
00:31:18,227 --> 00:31:22,127
when according to popular legend,
he discovered something

398
00:31:22,128 --> 00:31:25,128
that turned him into
an extremely wealthy man

399
00:31:25,129 --> 00:31:27,629
almost over night.

400
00:31:27,730 --> 00:31:33,430
This wealth that he had was
part of a vast golden treasure

401
00:31:33,431 --> 00:31:40,331
that was kept underground in this church
in a weird series of catacombs.

402
00:31:40,332 --> 00:31:44,824
These catacombs of
Rennes-Le-Ch�teau were ancient.

403
00:31:44,826 --> 00:31:49,126
They had been there long
before the church had been built.

404
00:31:49,203 --> 00:31:53,003
And here's an area that's
known to have these caves

405
00:31:53,004 --> 00:31:54,403
that were used by the Visigoths.

406
00:31:58,304 --> 00:32:04,037
I lived here 16 years and we
know here's a tunnel under this garden.

407
00:32:04,063 --> 00:32:07,631
It comes along this way
from the castle

408
00:32:07,632 --> 00:32:13,112
until to the church, and
it runs this, in this way...

409
00:32:14,813 --> 00:32:16,817
There have been people who
have been coming here

410
00:32:16,887 --> 00:32:21,820
since the 1950s in search of
gold, and some have found it.

411
00:32:21,892 --> 00:32:24,958
The question is whether finding
gold is everything there is to

412
00:32:24,995 --> 00:32:27,961
this mystery or whether it's
just the first step along many

413
00:32:27,965 --> 00:32:30,631
steps to go before we actually
uncover the real mystery of

414
00:32:30,632 --> 00:32:31,535
Rennes-Le-Ch�teau.

415
00:32:33,537 --> 00:32:36,905
Although Father Sauni�re
claimed to have come

416
00:32:36,907 --> 00:32:41,408
upon this vast wealth by chance,
many believe he actively

417
00:32:41,445 --> 00:32:46,446
searched for the Visigoth gold.
And that much more still lies

418
00:32:46,517 --> 00:32:49,617
hidden in the catacombs
beneath the church.

419
00:32:50,654 --> 00:32:54,254
But even more mysterious than
the priest's possible discovery

420
00:32:54,291 --> 00:32:59,829
of gold was his strange behavior
afterwards, a behavior that

421
00:32:59,830 --> 00:33:04,467
became reflected in the
design of the church itself.

422
00:33:04,468 --> 00:33:07,735
B�renger Sauni�re is a guy
who goes in search of

423
00:33:07,738 --> 00:33:11,571
ancient documents, who goes in
search of certain specific

424
00:33:11,575 --> 00:33:15,709
knowledge in alchemical circles.
So what we have found in

425
00:33:15,746 --> 00:33:19,312
a lot of other alchemical processes
is the importance of gold.

426
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:25,219
What happens next is that
he begins to build a church.

427
00:33:25,289 --> 00:33:27,322
He builds it according to a plan.

428
00:33:27,927 --> 00:33:33,827
This plan is to make contact
with the divine, and so I think.

429
00:33:33,828 --> 00:33:37,529
Sauni�re realized that certain
metals could be transformed into

430
00:33:37,599 --> 00:33:40,066
something which truly
made it a spiritual experience.

431
00:33:40,938 --> 00:33:44,807
Might the golden treasure Father
Sauni�re supposedly unearthed

432
00:33:44,808 --> 00:33:48,111
have contained more than just
monetary value?

433
00:33:49,413 --> 00:33:52,746
Could it have held some
otherworldly knowledge?

434
00:33:55,586 --> 00:33:59,853
The priest confided in only one
other person as to the origin of

435
00:33:59,857 --> 00:34:05,657
this mysterious wealth, his
housekeeper Marie D�narnaud.

436
00:34:05,663 --> 00:34:08,629
But what was the secret
that they shared?

437
00:34:08,933 --> 00:34:12,666
Ancient astronaut theorists
believe a clue may lie

438
00:34:12,670 --> 00:34:16,104
in the inscription found over
the door of the church.

439
00:34:16,607 --> 00:34:20,340
B�renger Sauni�re placed an
inscription over the door

440
00:34:20,343 --> 00:34:24,010
that people have been
talking about for 100 years.

441
00:34:25,583 --> 00:34:30,383
The inscription says
"Terribilis est locus iste."

442
00:34:30,454 --> 00:34:34,057
It's mistakenly translated most
often as "This place is terrible"

443
00:34:34,058 --> 00:34:39,192
but, in fact, the inscription
comes from the Old Testament,

444
00:34:39,194 --> 00:34:40,393
from the Book of Genesis.

445
00:34:41,031 --> 00:34:45,335
Jacob has a dream about a ladder
that connects Heaven to Earth,

446
00:34:45,336 --> 00:34:47,936
where humans could
connect to the divine.

447
00:34:49,106 --> 00:34:51,972
So when you look at
the Old Testament translation,

448
00:34:51,976 --> 00:34:56,210
what it really says is
"This place is awesome".

449
00:35:00,247 --> 00:35:03,647
Is this inscription from
the Old Testament of the

450
00:35:03,687 --> 00:35:07,354
Hebrew Bible a reference
to something divine,

451
00:35:08,425 --> 00:35:11,525
or might it point to an
extraterrestrial connection?

452
00:35:12,128 --> 00:35:15,727
I believe Rennes-Le-Ch�teau could
be a stargate to another world.

453
00:35:15,799 --> 00:35:17,568
This is based on the inscription

454
00:35:17,569 --> 00:35:21,136
placed above the entrance to the
church by B�renger Sauni�re.

455
00:35:22,014 --> 00:35:24,514
Why would this priest
put this inscription there

456
00:35:24,515 --> 00:35:28,515
unless he is indicating that is awesome
and tremendously powerful place.

457
00:35:28,615 --> 00:35:32,015
Rennes-Le-Ch�teau is
a gateway to the stars?

458
00:35:33,615 --> 00:35:36,915
Rennes-Le-Ch�teau, to me,
is one of the spookiest

459
00:35:36,916 --> 00:35:39,320
and most powerful places
I've ever been.

460
00:35:41,158 --> 00:35:43,791
The ground there is oozing mystery.

461
00:35:44,895 --> 00:35:48,328
We know that people have
said that Rennes-Le-Ch�teau

462
00:35:48,399 --> 00:35:49,866
is a place for UFOs.

463
00:35:50,768 --> 00:35:52,701
We know people have
reported time slips.

464
00:35:53,504 --> 00:35:56,470
And people have said that they have
had encounters with the Devil.

465
00:35:58,142 --> 00:36:01,108
So there is definitely something
about that area which suggests

466
00:36:01,145 --> 00:36:04,812
that, for centuries, very strange
and bizarre things happened.

467
00:36:06,684 --> 00:36:10,686
Could this tiny village
be a gateway to an

468
00:36:10,688 --> 00:36:15,322
extraterrestrial past
or even another dimension?

469
00:36:17,227 --> 00:36:21,127
Perhaps the answer lies
buried with Marie D�narnaud.

470
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:27,403
Or, as some believe, the secrets
of Rennes-Le-Ch�teau might

471
00:36:27,404 --> 00:36:32,305
still be revealed.
And the answer may lie not

472
00:36:32,343 --> 00:36:37,376
in France but just to the north,
in Scotland.

473
00:36:44,354 --> 00:36:49,352
Rosslyn Chapel, Scotland.
Perched atop a hill overlooking

474
00:36:49,356 --> 00:36:53,356
the village of Roslin, seven
miles south of Edinburgh,

475
00:36:53,394 --> 00:36:56,861
sits this medieval 15th
century church.

476
00:36:58,666 --> 00:37:02,302
Some say that, hidden on the
grounds, in secret chambers

477
00:37:02,303 --> 00:37:07,303
within the church, are some of
the world's greatest lost relics.

478
00:37:09,210 --> 00:37:12,876
Including the treasure
of the Knights Templar.

479
00:37:14,715 --> 00:37:20,782
This elite band of warrior monks
had been based at the Temple Mount

480
00:37:20,818 --> 00:37:23,420
in Jerusalem during the
Christian Crusades.

481
00:37:24,425 --> 00:37:28,658
They were also rumored to have
been in possession of many

482
00:37:28,662 --> 00:37:32,863
valuable religious artifacts...
including the most valuable

483
00:37:32,866 --> 00:37:34,468
golden relic of all...

484
00:37:36,038 --> 00:37:38,038
the Holy Grail...

485
00:37:38,039 --> 00:37:41,839
the cup used by Jesus
during the Last Supper.

486
00:37:43,910 --> 00:37:48,109
The Knights Templar began
excavating at Solomon's Temple.

487
00:37:49,377 --> 00:37:53,277
They said that they
discovered secret caverns

488
00:37:53,278 --> 00:37:57,677
which held a huge horde
of gold artifacts.

489
00:37:59,778 --> 00:38:03,877
At the time of the sacking
of the Solomon's temple,

490
00:38:03,878 --> 00:38:07,677
the treasure there
suddenly vanished.

491
00:38:09,078 --> 00:38:16,777
They then took this treasure to Scotland
and buried it at Rosslyn Chapel.

492
00:38:18,877 --> 00:38:22,677
Rosslyn Chapel is one
of the most fascinating

493
00:38:22,678 --> 00:38:25,277
possible recreations
of Solomon's Temple.

494
00:38:27,977 --> 00:38:32,677
It literally is a Holy Grail temple, that
was constructed by William Sinclair

495
00:38:32,678 --> 00:38:37,000
and it is designed to be a
repository of Holy Grail secrets.

496
00:38:37,001 --> 00:38:41,200
When it was created it had the
most wonderful and fantastic

497
00:38:41,201 --> 00:38:43,722
symbolism perhaps
anywhere in the world.

498
00:38:44,850 --> 00:38:49,949
Could Rosslyn Chapel really been
built to house the Holy Grail?

499
00:38:50,577 --> 00:38:56,777
Some believe the architecture of the
Chapel is adorned with mysterious

500
00:38:56,778 --> 00:38:59,977
messages and symbols that
reveal the secret whereabouts

501
00:38:59,978 --> 00:39:01,177
of the cup of Christ.

502
00:39:02,575 --> 00:39:05,275
And here we are,
this is Rosslyn Chapel.

503
00:39:06,976 --> 00:39:10,776
William Sinclair was responsible
for building the Chapel.

504
00:39:10,777 --> 00:39:16,177
He was a very rich individual, he was
the Chancellor of Scotland at the time.

505
00:39:16,477 --> 00:39:21,277
We see these extraordinarily
gifted brilliant men collecting

506
00:39:21,278 --> 00:39:23,877
the wisdom traditions
from around the world

507
00:39:23,878 --> 00:39:27,846
and stealing all of those
into Rosslyn Chapel.

508
00:39:31,048 --> 00:39:36,318
Among the many carvings found in the
walls of Rosslyn Chapel are faces called,

509
00:39:36,356 --> 00:39:41,724
"The Green Men", pagan deities
that represent growth and rebirth.

510
00:39:42,263 --> 00:39:47,233
Some believe these strange faces
provide a clue that the chapel

511
00:39:47,234 --> 00:39:49,868
truly does hold the Holy Grail.

512
00:39:50,670 --> 00:39:53,603
The carvings themselves
have a dual meaning;

513
00:39:53,673 --> 00:39:56,008
they always have
had a dual meaning.

514
00:39:56,009 --> 00:40:00,308
The Green Man appears
in over 110 different locations.

515
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:04,817
As you watch the progression of
the Green Man from east to west,

516
00:40:04,818 --> 00:40:07,517
that progression represents
the passing of time.

517
00:40:07,554 --> 00:40:11,187
So all the youngest
of all the Green Man

518
00:40:11,191 --> 00:40:16,890
carvings are on the eastern wall, and
towards the west they become older.

519
00:40:17,330 --> 00:40:20,463
This symbolizes the
ultimate secrets of nature,

520
00:40:20,467 --> 00:40:23,834
and it makes one wonder if,
in fact, the Grail is connected

521
00:40:23,837 --> 00:40:28,336
with these secrets and the presence of
the Green Man in this Holy Grail chapel.

522
00:40:30,811 --> 00:40:34,810
But if the Holy Grail truly
does reside in Rosslyn Chapel,

523
00:40:34,916 --> 00:40:37,016
where might it be hidden?

524
00:40:37,618 --> 00:40:42,518
Some believe it lies within an ornate
pillar called the Apprentice Pillar,

525
00:40:42,523 --> 00:40:47,560
and at least one person has actually
attempted to retrieve it.

526
00:40:47,561 --> 00:40:50,526
We actually have a story
which is known to be factual

527
00:40:50,545 --> 00:40:54,145
a person came into
the Chapel, with an ax

528
00:40:54,146 --> 00:40:58,344
who was going to be intend
on hacking down the Apprentice Pillar

529
00:40:58,345 --> 00:41:03,845
because he was convinced that
the Grail was actually inside.

530
00:41:05,945 --> 00:41:10,644
What is the Grail? What if I was
to say the Grail is your DNA.

531
00:41:10,645 --> 00:41:14,145
Because it's your past
and it's your future.

532
00:41:15,045 --> 00:41:19,045
And a very interesting thing is
when you look at that Pillar

533
00:41:19,046 --> 00:41:22,245
you see that it is
actually the DNA form.

534
00:41:24,445 --> 00:41:29,344
Might all these mysterious carvings that
have been linked to the Holy Grail

535
00:41:29,345 --> 00:41:33,445
indicate that the chalice used
by Jesus at the Last Supper

536
00:41:33,545 --> 00:41:36,745
was something more
than just a drinking vessel?

537
00:41:37,145 --> 00:41:42,845
The whole story is very fascinating
to the ancient astronaut theory.

538
00:41:42,846 --> 00:41:48,883
Wolfram von Eschenbach, for example,
suggests that the Holy Grail

539
00:41:48,884 --> 00:41:51,555
arrived from the stars.

540
00:41:53,393 --> 00:41:55,959
And the question is, what
did he mean by that?

541
00:41:56,564 --> 00:42:05,197
It is often described as this
vessel that had blinking red lights.

542
00:42:05,238 --> 00:42:09,505
Were the Templar in possession
of some technological device?

543
00:42:10,710 --> 00:42:14,910
Could the Holy Grail
really be an ancient link

544
00:42:14,917 --> 00:42:18,917
between Jesus and some spiritual
or otherworldly power?

545
00:42:19,119 --> 00:42:23,452
And might finding it provide
proof of a link between

546
00:42:23,453 --> 00:42:26,558
ourselves and an
extraterrestrial origin?

547
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:34,131
If so, might this mysterious
church, like others so-called.

548
00:42:34,133 --> 00:42:35,868
"Temples of Gold" in Peru...

549
00:42:36,570 --> 00:42:37,503
Egypt...

550
00:42:38,505 --> 00:42:39,972
and France...

551
00:42:40,174 --> 00:42:45,274
contain treasure far more valuable
than mere monetary wealth?

552
00:42:46,145 --> 00:42:48,578
Whether we are in Rosslyn
Chapel, whether we

553
00:42:48,579 --> 00:42:51,548
are in Rennes-Le-Ch�teau,
we always go back underneath

554
00:42:51,551 --> 00:42:55,184
the earth, where there might not just
be spiritual treasure to be found,

555
00:42:56,189 --> 00:42:57,088
but also physical treasure.

556
00:42:57,090 --> 00:42:59,925
Gold has been one of the
most important quests of all

557
00:42:59,926 --> 00:43:03,226
ancient and sacred traditions.
Gold symbolizes wealth.

558
00:43:03,296 --> 00:43:04,996
It symbolizes power.

559
00:43:05,100 --> 00:43:08,834
But ultimately, gold represents
our connection with the stars.

560
00:43:11,936 --> 00:43:17,976
Cultures all over the world value gold
more than anything else, and it seems that

561
00:43:17,977 --> 00:43:21,810
they knew something about gold
that we are yet to discover.

562
00:43:22,349 --> 00:43:26,482
Could gold actually be the
ultimate link between

563
00:43:26,483 --> 00:43:28,721
humans and otherworldly beings.

564
00:43:30,021 --> 00:43:34,090
A tangible connection to
extraterrestrial ancestors

565
00:43:34,091 --> 00:43:36,925
that came to Earth
thousands of years ago?

566
00:43:37,331 --> 00:43:39,031
Perhaps.

567
00:43:39,733 --> 00:43:44,566
But if the search for gold
really is one of the reasons why

568
00:43:44,570 --> 00:43:47,670
ancient aliens traveled to the
third planet from the sun,

569
00:43:48,971 --> 00:43:51,273
one more question remains:

570
00:43:52,675 --> 00:43:55,375
Will they return for more?
