These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:07,720 For more than 3 ,000 years, Ireland has maintained a connection to ancient magic 2 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:09,340 and a mystical realm. 3 00:00:10,060 --> 00:00:14,700 We have two parallel worlds, the human world and the other world. 4 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:19,660 The rolling landscape is believed to possess hidden powers. 5 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:27,340 It's said that the mound acted as the doorways into other realities. 6 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:33,740 And within these earthen mounds, are said to be powerful beings known as the 7 00:00:33,740 --> 00:00:40,120 Shining Ones. They are somehow able to manipulate their surroundings and 8 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,320 have the knowledge of the universe. 9 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:47,280 Are these Irish legends more than fanciful mythology? 10 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,860 And if so, could there be an extraterrestrial connection? 11 00:00:53,380 --> 00:00:56,520 The ancient Irish were saying that these beings came from the sky. 12 00:00:59,690 --> 00:01:06,510 There is a doorway in the universe Beyond it is the promise 13 00:01:06,510 --> 00:01:12,810 of truth It demands we question everything we have ever been taught 14 00:01:12,810 --> 00:01:19,390 The evidence is all around us The future is right before 15 00:01:19,390 --> 00:01:23,310 our eyes We are not alone. 16 00:01:23,710 --> 00:01:26,530 We have never been alone 17 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:37,680 Ireland. 18 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:43,800 This lush green island in the North Atlantic has a history of human activity 19 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,220 dating back more than 33 ,000 years. 20 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:54,040 Numerous cultures have called Ireland home, from the early Beaker people to 21 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:55,780 Celts and the Gaels. 22 00:01:56,100 --> 00:02:01,220 And the island has a rich tradition of folklore that is spread throughout the 23 00:02:01,220 --> 00:02:02,220 world. 24 00:02:02,900 --> 00:02:08,090 But perhaps most notable, is that Ireland boasts some of the oldest 25 00:02:08,090 --> 00:02:09,090 on the planet. 26 00:02:10,070 --> 00:02:15,510 Massive earthen mounds, many of which date back more than 5 ,000 years. 27 00:02:16,050 --> 00:02:19,270 These mounds are constructed. They're not natural hills. These are megalithic 28 00:02:19,270 --> 00:02:25,090 constructions involving, in the larger sites, an enormous amount of man hours 29 00:02:25,090 --> 00:02:26,090 and labor. 30 00:02:26,890 --> 00:02:31,350 These would have been, when they were made, just a very, very impressive site. 31 00:02:32,190 --> 00:02:33,190 These mounds. 32 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:40,340 were an ancient earthwork that had a tunnel going through it with stones on 33 00:02:40,340 --> 00:02:44,060 either side and stones on top and then covered with earth. 34 00:02:45,640 --> 00:02:49,880 Ireland has a tremendous amount of these mounds. And these are some of mankind's 35 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,300 oldest large structures in the world. 36 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,100 And they anchor all of the land together. 37 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,000 Usually if you visit one on top of the hill, you go up, you find one, you can 38 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,400 a line of sight to the next one. 39 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,880 There was almost a network, almost across the entire Ireland, of these 40 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,640 The oldest known writing in Ireland dates to the 6th century AD. 41 00:03:12,820 --> 00:03:17,760 More than 3 ,000 years after the ancient mounds are believed to have been built. 42 00:03:18,260 --> 00:03:23,100 With no written record about the mounds' construction, archaeologists and 43 00:03:23,100 --> 00:03:28,740 historians can only speculate as to who made them and for what purpose. 44 00:03:29,210 --> 00:03:32,430 These things were built to go inside, where presumably very, very important 45 00:03:32,430 --> 00:03:36,930 rituals took place. We don't know, but much later on, these sites would have 46 00:03:36,930 --> 00:03:41,730 been used for gatherings, for rituals, and sort of keeping the society 47 00:03:43,730 --> 00:03:48,370 These were enormously long -lived sites of cultural importance, with enormously 48 00:03:48,370 --> 00:03:51,210 long -lived societies that used these as focal points. 49 00:03:52,290 --> 00:03:57,890 Thirty miles north of Dublin, in County Meath, is Ireland's largest and oldest 50 00:03:57,890 --> 00:03:59,970 mound. called Newgrange. 51 00:04:00,630 --> 00:04:06,730 The ancient structure consists of over 200 ,000 tons of stone and has a 52 00:04:06,730 --> 00:04:11,650 passageway leading to a central chamber in which human bone fragments have been 53 00:04:11,650 --> 00:04:18,029 found. But archaeologists say Newgrange also has an undeniable connection to the 54 00:04:18,029 --> 00:04:19,029 cosmos. 55 00:04:20,110 --> 00:04:25,250 Spiral petroglyphs thought to symbolize the universe are found all around it, 56 00:04:25,310 --> 00:04:30,540 and the passageway and chamber form a cruciform shape that researchers believe 57 00:04:30,540 --> 00:04:33,180 is based on the constellation Cygnus. 58 00:04:34,580 --> 00:04:39,320 At the time Newgrange was built, it was presumed to be the largest structure 59 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,340 that mankind had ever built in the world. 60 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,300 And one of the most interesting things about Newgrange is its celestial 61 00:04:46,300 --> 00:04:49,840 alignment. It's still very, very poppy. If you go out in the winter solstice, 62 00:04:50,060 --> 00:04:54,460 you have this sun dagger that it cuts tremendous distance all the way in to 63 00:04:54,460 --> 00:04:55,480 brighten up the inner chambers. 64 00:04:57,290 --> 00:05:02,690 Newgrange is unique among Ireland's mounds in its sophistication and was 65 00:05:02,690 --> 00:05:04,810 designed for ritualistic activity. 66 00:05:05,970 --> 00:05:11,910 But according to ancient Irish texts, the mounds serve a more profound and 67 00:05:11,910 --> 00:05:17,490 mysterious purpose, as the dwelling places of otherworldly beings 68 00:05:17,490 --> 00:05:18,810 called the she. 69 00:05:20,010 --> 00:05:24,550 The word she, it can mean the mounds and also... 70 00:05:24,890 --> 00:05:31,510 can mean the other world people the people of the mounds in irish 71 00:05:31,510 --> 00:05:38,050 tradition it's bad luck to use the word she to directly refer to these other 72 00:05:38,050 --> 00:05:43,190 world people so there are many different names we have the english word fairy 73 00:05:43,190 --> 00:05:45,210 folk also elves 74 00:05:46,950 --> 00:05:51,990 Stories of fairies, elves, and even leprechauns are rooted in the ancient 75 00:05:51,990 --> 00:05:54,470 folklore of what the Irish called the she. 76 00:05:55,150 --> 00:06:00,410 But for many Irish people, the she are not merely mythological figures. 77 00:06:02,470 --> 00:06:05,290 Fairies and leprechauns and all that sort of stuff, there are too many people 78 00:06:05,290 --> 00:06:08,870 laugh and joke about at times, but it's knowledge that's been passed down for 79 00:06:08,870 --> 00:06:10,330 thousands and thousands of years. 80 00:06:11,340 --> 00:06:15,820 We have the terrestrial world and the subterrestrial world, the human world 81 00:06:15,820 --> 00:06:18,000 the superhuman or other world. 82 00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:20,440 These worlds exist in parallel. 83 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,120 Occasionally, however, there is communication between the two worlds. 84 00:06:26,180 --> 00:06:32,540 The mounts are often referred to as ferry forts, as are stone circles and 85 00:06:32,540 --> 00:06:35,820 clusters that are considered the property of the sheath. 86 00:06:36,300 --> 00:06:41,740 This strong cultural belief That these features are the domain of otherworldly 87 00:06:41,740 --> 00:06:45,080 beings has kept them intact for thousands of years. 88 00:06:45,580 --> 00:06:50,900 And the Irish say that when they are disturbed, bad luck always follows. 89 00:06:52,340 --> 00:06:54,680 Sean Quinn was the wealthiest man in Ireland. 90 00:06:54,900 --> 00:07:00,520 He lost everything because he moved a ferry fort. He damaged a ferry fort and 91 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,280 moved it to another place. 92 00:07:03,820 --> 00:07:07,220 DeLorean car manufacturers, they came to Belfast and they were making the 93 00:07:07,220 --> 00:07:11,360 DeLorean car up in Northern Ireland and they built the factory on the site of a 94 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:12,099 fairy fort. 95 00:07:12,100 --> 00:07:15,980 And then it all came crashing down and the local people would say, well, you 96 00:07:15,980 --> 00:07:16,980 know, what do you expect? 97 00:07:17,620 --> 00:07:20,700 Ask any Irish person, would you damage a fairy fort? 98 00:07:21,260 --> 00:07:22,940 What would happen if you damaged a fairy tree? 99 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:29,620 If you gave me 10 million bucks and a Cadillac and a helicopter and a 100 00:07:29,620 --> 00:07:34,240 house on Sunset Boulevard, and said all I had to do was chop down a fairy tree, 101 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,040 I'd be handing that money straight back to you. 102 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,460 I wouldn't do it. No one I know would do it either. So do we believe in the 103 00:07:40,460 --> 00:07:41,880 fairies in Ireland? 104 00:07:42,220 --> 00:07:43,220 We do. 105 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:49,600 While modern -day representations of fairies often depict benevolent, 106 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,900 creatures, traditional Irish notions of fairies are much different. 107 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:59,060 They are considered powerful and sometimes dangerous beings. 108 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:05,500 You don't want to mess with the Ishi. They're not cute, cuddly little fairies 109 00:08:05,500 --> 00:08:07,420 like we typically think of today. 110 00:08:08,220 --> 00:08:13,360 These are very extraordinarily powerful people, wielders of supernatural powers. 111 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:19,800 The Shi, or fairy folk, are often referred to as the Shining Ones. 112 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,640 But do accounts of their luminous appearance suggest that they are divine 113 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:25,640 beings? 114 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,440 According to the ancient Irish stories. 115 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:33,679 While the fairies have supernatural abilities, they are not immortal gods. 116 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,720 The inhabitants of the Xi is not necessarily immortal in the narratives. 117 00:08:38,820 --> 00:08:41,500 Sometimes they're killed or meet with death. 118 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:48,100 But they never grow old, and so if they are killed or die, they do so while 119 00:08:48,100 --> 00:08:53,600 young. They're other, but somewhat humanoid. Sometimes they're small and 120 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,920 they abduct people, they have either advanced technology or ancient magic. 121 00:08:59,070 --> 00:09:04,650 And in many ways, the fairy tradition reminds me very much of the UFO 122 00:09:04,650 --> 00:09:05,990 that we have in the United States. 123 00:09:06,650 --> 00:09:11,590 When it comes to these dwellings of the fairy folk, there's lots of talk about 124 00:09:11,590 --> 00:09:14,530 otherworldly beings emerging from the mouth. 125 00:09:15,950 --> 00:09:19,450 And also people getting taken into the mouth and, like, disappearing. 126 00:09:21,290 --> 00:09:27,090 You hear stories of lights in the sky or even lights in the forest and the woods 127 00:09:27,090 --> 00:09:33,690 that you see. So could it be possible that the fairy folk is a description 128 00:09:33,690 --> 00:09:40,590 of extraterrestrials back in the day? There is absolutely an argument that can 129 00:09:40,590 --> 00:09:42,270 make that case. 130 00:09:43,010 --> 00:09:45,750 In our stories related to... 131 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,460 Is it 132 00:09:49,460 --> 00:09:56,080 possible that modern beliefs of fairy and elves 133 00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,940 are based on real otherworldly beings that the Irish people encountered 134 00:10:00,940 --> 00:10:05,200 centuries ago and that may still inhabit the island today? 135 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:10,240 And if so, why are they thought to dwell within the ancient bounds? 136 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:15,420 According to legend, the she did not always live within the earth. 137 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:21,820 And their story begins with a group of shining beings who arrived in flying 138 00:10:21,820 --> 00:10:22,820 craft. 139 00:10:28,380 --> 00:10:34,440 In Ireland, tales of the she, or fairy folk, have been passed down orally for 140 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:35,940 more than 3 ,000 years. 141 00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:41,480 And in the 11th century, many of these stories were documented in a text called 142 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:42,920 the Book of Invasions. 143 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:48,340 According to this medieval account of Irish history and lore, thousands of 144 00:10:48,340 --> 00:10:53,480 ago, a godlike race of beings called the Tuatha Dé Danann landed on a 145 00:10:53,480 --> 00:11:00,020 mountaintop in Ireland, often referred to as the Shining Ones. They are the 146 00:11:00,020 --> 00:11:01,560 ancestors of the She. 147 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,680 All of our stories relate back to the Tuatha Dé Danann. 148 00:11:04,900 --> 00:11:09,380 For 3 ,000 years at least, if not more, before that, all the stories from 149 00:11:09,380 --> 00:11:12,720 mythology are all related to Tuatha Dé Danann. They were the Shining Ones. 150 00:11:14,410 --> 00:11:18,930 There is a description in the mythological material, in the early 151 00:11:18,930 --> 00:11:24,310 literature, of the Tuatha Dé Danann arriving in cloud ships, 152 00:11:24,650 --> 00:11:30,530 arriving in dark clouds and landing on a mountain. 153 00:11:32,110 --> 00:11:37,250 There is a long poem about the arrival of the Tuatha Dé Danann. One of the 154 00:11:37,250 --> 00:11:41,970 says, The truth was not known beneath the sky of stars, whether they were of 155 00:11:41,970 --> 00:11:43,070 heaven or of earth. 156 00:11:44,270 --> 00:11:50,270 The Tuatha Dé Danann are not human. They're demigods, not immortal, not 157 00:11:50,270 --> 00:11:55,850 infallible, not like the gods of monotheistic tradition of any of the 158 00:11:55,850 --> 00:11:56,850 religions. 159 00:11:57,710 --> 00:12:02,790 The Tuatha Dé Danann were said to be luminous beings of large stature who 160 00:12:02,790 --> 00:12:04,410 wielded magical powers. 161 00:12:04,770 --> 00:12:10,510 The Tuatha Dé Danann had an arsenal of very technological -founding weaponry. 162 00:12:11,130 --> 00:12:15,930 Lou of the long arm, for example, possessed a spear that when he threw it, 163 00:12:15,930 --> 00:12:20,170 could give a voice command and it would automatically hit whatever target. Then 164 00:12:20,170 --> 00:12:23,850 he'd give another voice command and the spear would mysteriously return to him. 165 00:12:24,070 --> 00:12:29,330 We have circles of light that they used to travel around Ireland upon. 166 00:12:29,650 --> 00:12:35,050 We have another chieftain named Nuada who lost an arm in a battle against the 167 00:12:35,050 --> 00:12:37,890 giants and they were able to replace his arm. 168 00:12:38,990 --> 00:12:43,570 The Tuatha Dé Danann were said to have a magical cauldron. They had a cloak of 169 00:12:43,570 --> 00:12:50,070 invisibility. They had spears that shot flames out. 170 00:12:50,850 --> 00:12:57,810 The ancient astronaut theory tries to look at ancient stories in which magic 171 00:12:57,810 --> 00:12:58,970 happens. 172 00:12:59,770 --> 00:13:05,850 from a modern perspective and determine if that so -called magic really was some 173 00:13:05,850 --> 00:13:10,770 type of technology, then one has to wonder where did that technology come 174 00:13:11,130 --> 00:13:16,110 Well, there's only one answer to this, and that is extraterrestrials. 175 00:13:16,770 --> 00:13:22,290 For ancient astronaut theorists, another intriguing aspect of these stories is 176 00:13:22,290 --> 00:13:27,150 how similar they are to accounts of sky gods found in other ancient cultures. 177 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:34,780 The stories of, let's call them aliens, descending from clouds 178 00:13:34,780 --> 00:13:40,440 on tops of mountains are straight across the cultural history of human beings. 179 00:13:41,020 --> 00:13:46,120 Let's start with one of the earliest ones, the descent on Mount Hermon in the 180 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:47,079 Golan Heights. 181 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,040 That's where the Nephilim came down. 182 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:54,280 Another in the descent of the Anunnaki. They came from clouds. 183 00:13:55,760 --> 00:14:00,980 We have other stories in Tibet and other places where these gods are coming down 184 00:14:00,980 --> 00:14:04,120 and they land on top of a mountain. 185 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,920 The gods of Olympus in Greece as another example. 186 00:14:10,060 --> 00:14:16,480 The stories of the Tuat Danon in these whirlwinds or clouds is something that 187 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:20,060 find in connection with deities in other parts of the world. 188 00:14:20,260 --> 00:14:23,100 For instance, across the Middle East. 189 00:14:23,530 --> 00:14:25,630 There is the concept of jinn. 190 00:14:26,450 --> 00:14:33,430 These are supernatural beings, very often associated with fire and light, 191 00:14:33,430 --> 00:14:39,330 can appear in whirlwind and manifest into physical form. 192 00:14:39,610 --> 00:14:44,290 The fact that we have countless stories that are not just similar but identical 193 00:14:44,290 --> 00:14:50,870 leads me to think that perhaps all these ancient cultures were visited by the 194 00:14:50,870 --> 00:14:52,150 same extraterrestrials. 195 00:14:53,860 --> 00:14:59,060 According to ancient astronaut theorists, the tradition that is most 196 00:14:59,060 --> 00:15:04,800 the Tuatha Dé Danann is that of the Anunnaki, the sky gods described by the 197 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,140 Sumerians, humankind's earliest known civilization. 198 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:14,140 What you've got with the Sumerians is the beginnings of civilization, people 199 00:15:14,140 --> 00:15:17,380 living together, but also the beginnings of writing. You know, some of the 200 00:15:17,380 --> 00:15:20,640 earliest written texts that we have are texts by these people. 201 00:15:21,770 --> 00:15:27,670 These clay tablets are 5 ,000 years old and more, and they tell of the arrival 202 00:15:27,670 --> 00:15:31,910 of the gods, the Anunnaki, the pantheon of gods. The chief was Anu. 203 00:15:32,370 --> 00:15:36,390 This is the sky god who came along and created everything. 204 00:15:37,030 --> 00:15:43,730 The term Anunnaki means those who from the heavens came, and it refers 205 00:15:43,730 --> 00:15:48,230 to beings descending from the sky imparting knowledge. 206 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:54,360 In the Irish stories, the Tuatha Dé Danann were also responsible for 207 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:55,900 knowledge to the ancient people. 208 00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:00,620 The Tuatha Dé Danann were the masters of all of the crafts, masters of all of 209 00:16:00,620 --> 00:16:03,580 the art, and they introduced the knowledge and the ways of agriculture. 210 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,740 Tuatha Dé Danann would always interact with the people. It's the same when he 211 00:16:06,740 --> 00:16:07,740 did Anunnaki. 212 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:14,260 Ancient astronaut theorists suggest the iconography of the Sumerians and Irish 213 00:16:14,260 --> 00:16:17,820 provides additional evidence that they encountered the same. 214 00:16:18,140 --> 00:16:19,320 otherworldly beings. 215 00:16:20,740 --> 00:16:25,540 Both depicted the gods as being of giant stature compared to humans. 216 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:30,080 Both portrayed them in scenes with hybrid or flying animals. 217 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:35,620 And both have images of the gods with horns or antlers emerging from their 218 00:16:35,620 --> 00:16:36,620 heads. 219 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:42,600 But perhaps most intriguing of all is that there appears to be a linguistic 220 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,680 connection between the Anunnaki and the Tua de Danan. 221 00:16:47,470 --> 00:16:52,710 According to some account, the Tua de Danan's original name was the Tua de 222 00:16:52,790 --> 00:16:55,850 the tribe of Anu or Danu. 223 00:16:56,090 --> 00:17:01,670 Linguists are very intrigued by this because this encodes the name of Anu, 224 00:17:01,690 --> 00:17:06,369 the high god of the Anunnaki for whom they are formed. 225 00:17:06,569 --> 00:17:11,530 And it suggests that perhaps the Tua de Danan are the descendants of the 226 00:17:11,530 --> 00:17:12,530 Anunnaki. 227 00:17:13,130 --> 00:17:16,069 Could the striking similarity that exists... 228 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:21,240 between the stories of the Tua de Danann and the Anunnaki reveal that Ireland 229 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:26,680 was visited by the same otherworldly beings that are described by humanity's 230 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,480 first known civilization roughly 3 ,000 miles away. 231 00:17:32,120 --> 00:17:38,300 But if so, how are they connected to Ireland's mound dwellers, known as the 232 00:17:38,300 --> 00:17:39,420 or fairy folk? 233 00:17:39,860 --> 00:17:45,060 Perhaps further clues can be found by examining mysterious ancient priests. 234 00:17:45,820 --> 00:17:47,440 called the Druid. 235 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,480 Kent, England, 1988. 236 00:17:57,620 --> 00:18:03,460 During an excavation of an Iron Age burial site, archaeologists uncover the 237 00:18:03,460 --> 00:18:09,080 skeleton of a man who lived around the 3rd century B .C. and who was wearing a 238 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:10,440 unique headdress. 239 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:16,890 Based on the design of this bronze crown, Many researchers believe these 240 00:18:16,890 --> 00:18:20,070 first remains ever discovered of a druid. 241 00:18:21,730 --> 00:18:27,550 According to Irish legend, the druids were a class of ancient Celtic priests 242 00:18:27,550 --> 00:18:32,010 were in close contact with the Shining Ones, the Tua de Danann. 243 00:18:32,350 --> 00:18:38,670 The word for druid in Irish is druid, which literally means magic. 244 00:18:39,630 --> 00:18:44,350 So there is an interconnection between the Tuatha De Danann and their magic and 245 00:18:44,350 --> 00:18:45,950 the practice of druidry. 246 00:18:46,670 --> 00:18:52,570 The Tuatha De Danann were said to have been the founders of druidism. And the 247 00:18:52,570 --> 00:18:55,690 druids were said to have all kinds of special powers themselves. 248 00:18:56,510 --> 00:19:02,330 And so it would seem that the Tuatha De Danann had shown some of their 249 00:19:02,330 --> 00:19:07,630 extraterrestrial technology to the druids who then were able to use it 250 00:19:07,630 --> 00:19:08,630 themselves. 251 00:19:10,860 --> 00:19:15,540 The Druidic religion originated with the Tua de Danon, but they were never 252 00:19:15,540 --> 00:19:19,920 allowed to write down any of the Druidic knowledge. 253 00:19:20,140 --> 00:19:25,860 It was taboo because it was so -called sacred knowledge. 254 00:19:27,180 --> 00:19:32,280 The Druids spent decades in training to perform their priestly functions. These 255 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:36,900 are members of the inner circle, as we're told. The inner circle refers 256 00:19:36,900 --> 00:19:40,460 ultimately to the innermost knowledge of the two Adonis. 257 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,880 The shining ones, they know their secrets and they can wield their 258 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:51,080 Portrayals of Druids as mysterious, shaman -like figures with mystical 259 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:56,520 has led some scholars to question if they truly existed or were purely... 260 00:19:56,700 --> 00:19:57,780 mythological figures. 261 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:03,560 But according to the earliest accounts of them, the Druids were an integral 262 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,520 of Celtic society throughout the British Isles. 263 00:20:06,820 --> 00:20:10,060 There are certain things we know about the Druids, but of course there's a lot 264 00:20:10,060 --> 00:20:10,959 we don't know. 265 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:15,800 And this vacuum incited a lot of romantic speculation in the 19th 266 00:20:16,020 --> 00:20:20,580 And so we're still carrying that baggage a little bit, swirling robes and so on. 267 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:27,020 But in Celtic society, in Gaelic society, the Druids exercised authority 268 00:20:27,020 --> 00:20:31,720 played an important role in the life of the tribe and the society. 269 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,460 The Druids were beholders of knowledge. 270 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:40,820 They held and perpetuated the knowledge which was important to the survival of 271 00:20:40,820 --> 00:20:41,819 the tribe. 272 00:20:41,820 --> 00:20:48,280 They held and perpetuated judiciary knowledge, things sacred and 273 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:49,280 spiritual. 274 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:56,900 The Druid was a very special figure, a priest perhaps, a historian perhaps, a 275 00:20:56,900 --> 00:21:03,000 magician perhaps, and many, many things. These were the learned people of Celtic 276 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,020 society. They formed a special class. 277 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,700 According to Caesar, the Druids in Gaul had to study 20 years to become a Druid. 278 00:21:09,700 --> 00:21:15,380 And they had many, many roles to play, including acting as jurists and judges, 279 00:21:15,660 --> 00:21:16,900 advisors to kings. 280 00:21:17,530 --> 00:21:22,850 And so Druidism and the magic that they were able to employ is really a 281 00:21:22,850 --> 00:21:25,390 foundational part of early Celtic society. 282 00:21:27,010 --> 00:21:30,830 Druids are not necessarily men. We also have a lot of accounts of female 283 00:21:30,830 --> 00:21:35,330 Druidry. And it does seem to be associated heavily with the Tuatha de 284 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:41,480 They didn't just teach things like astronomy and, you know, harmony in 285 00:21:41,540 --> 00:21:45,480 They were working with geomancy, the placement of ancient sites across the 286 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:50,260 landscape called geodesy, and also working with earth energies and even 287 00:21:50,260 --> 00:21:55,140 medicines. So they had a high understanding of these different arts 288 00:21:55,140 --> 00:21:56,140 sciences. 289 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:03,700 The Druids were known to travel far and wide, seeking out the knowledge of other 290 00:22:03,700 --> 00:22:04,700 cultures. 291 00:22:04,910 --> 00:22:09,830 But they were also said to interact directly with the Tuat de Danann, who 292 00:22:09,830 --> 00:22:12,450 the secrets of their so -called magical abilities. 293 00:22:13,130 --> 00:22:17,870 Pliny the Elder, who was one of the most famous of the Roman writers and 294 00:22:17,870 --> 00:22:24,670 historians, he claimed that at a full moon, druids would meet at a 295 00:22:24,670 --> 00:22:31,570 mound and they would trace a design that looked something like a dragon on top 296 00:22:31,570 --> 00:22:32,570 of the mound. 297 00:22:33,770 --> 00:22:39,310 And this would summon some sort of lightning or some phenomenon that 298 00:22:39,310 --> 00:22:40,310 the sky. 299 00:22:40,790 --> 00:22:46,670 I don't think he saw it himself. He was taking what he knew from Roman soldiers 300 00:22:46,670 --> 00:22:51,050 that witnessed it. But apparently it frightened a lot of them. They saw 301 00:22:51,050 --> 00:22:55,850 in the sky once the Druids did this dragon ritual, as it became known. 302 00:22:56,870 --> 00:23:02,350 So it would seem that the Druids knew of the power of certain... 303 00:23:02,730 --> 00:23:03,750 special places. 304 00:23:04,910 --> 00:23:10,430 And perhaps this is something that would summon the Tuatha Dan and these shining 305 00:23:10,430 --> 00:23:13,270 people who came from the sky. 306 00:23:15,030 --> 00:23:20,050 One of the many magical powers the druids were said to possess was the 307 00:23:20,050 --> 00:23:25,170 to levitate massive stones, which they used to construct some of the megalithic 308 00:23:25,170 --> 00:23:27,770 structures found throughout the British Isles. 309 00:23:28,330 --> 00:23:32,390 The most famous of the Druids, of course, was Merlin. 310 00:23:34,030 --> 00:23:40,730 Merlin was said to have created Stonehenge by taking 311 00:23:40,730 --> 00:23:47,730 an existing stone circle from Ireland and bringing it to Salisbury Plain in 312 00:23:47,730 --> 00:23:48,850 southern England. 313 00:23:49,470 --> 00:23:55,990 And there, using magic powers, he was able to raise the stone into position 314 00:23:55,990 --> 00:23:58,730 in the manner that we see them today. 315 00:24:01,350 --> 00:24:06,210 What is interesting is that the stones that built Stonehenge did come from a 316 00:24:06,210 --> 00:24:11,650 long way away, about 135 miles away in South Wales. 317 00:24:11,930 --> 00:24:17,730 Somehow they were moved to central England, and the ancients believed it 318 00:24:17,730 --> 00:24:20,310 Merlin who was responsible for that. 319 00:24:21,150 --> 00:24:26,450 There are stories that say that some of those big gigantic blocks at Stonehenge 320 00:24:26,450 --> 00:24:33,190 were levitated into place through magical incantations. Well, 321 00:24:33,310 --> 00:24:40,210 what magical incantations? Because I don't think that levitation can happen 322 00:24:40,210 --> 00:24:46,970 just by words. There has to be some type of technology behind 323 00:24:46,970 --> 00:24:50,110 it. The idea is that basically... 324 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:56,280 This was extraterrestrial knowledge imparted by the Trudabem. 325 00:24:57,500 --> 00:25:02,920 When the Romans were here, they say that the Druids had this power to build 326 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,860 stone circles, of which there were thousands throughout the British Isles. 327 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:13,440 Stonehenge, Avebury, Newgrange. These places we find legends attached to the 328 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,020 Druids that they were able to float the stones through the air. 329 00:25:18,100 --> 00:25:19,220 Is it possible? 330 00:25:19,690 --> 00:25:25,050 that a secret society of Celtic priests who lived more than 2 ,000 years ago had 331 00:25:25,050 --> 00:25:27,270 access to otherworldly technology. 332 00:25:29,010 --> 00:25:33,670 According to the ancient accounts, while the Druids were the disciples of the 333 00:25:33,670 --> 00:25:38,310 Tuatha Dé Danann, it would ultimately be a Druid who brought their reign in 334 00:25:38,310 --> 00:25:42,450 Ireland to an end and drove them underground. 335 00:25:49,550 --> 00:25:53,550 County Kerry, 1700 B .C. 336 00:25:54,750 --> 00:25:59,710 A fleet of ships arrives on the southern shores of Ireland, carrying invaders 337 00:25:59,710 --> 00:26:00,710 from the south. 338 00:26:02,150 --> 00:26:07,650 According to early Irish accounts, they are aided by a druid named Avrahim in 339 00:26:07,650 --> 00:26:08,950 their conquest of Ireland. 340 00:26:11,290 --> 00:26:16,050 Avrahim was seeking revenge for his great -uncle, who had been killed by the 341 00:26:16,050 --> 00:26:18,150 three kings of the Tuatha Dé Danann. 342 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:25,600 These were the Sons of Mil, better known as the Militians. The Militians 343 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:31,980 came out of the Mediterranean, probably from Greece or Crete or 344 00:26:31,980 --> 00:26:38,820 Anatolia, modern -day Turkey, and they arrived in Ireland, and huge battles 345 00:26:38,820 --> 00:26:44,140 took place between the Tuatha De Nang and the Militians. 346 00:26:44,820 --> 00:26:47,840 Many stories have been written about these battles. 347 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:53,080 But according to the most trusted sources, the Tuatha Dé Danann agreed to 348 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,300 truce to save their beloved Ireland. 349 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,620 They did not come to the earth to do warfare. 350 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,260 They came to heal the earth, to work with the earth, to work with Mother 351 00:27:01,260 --> 00:27:06,360 and all of the good energies. What was agreed upon, that this country would be 352 00:27:06,360 --> 00:27:08,840 shared. There was room enough for everyone in this country. 353 00:27:09,780 --> 00:27:15,560 And it was agreed that the Milesians would live on the ground, on the earth 354 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:16,560 itself. 355 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:23,720 but that the Tuatha Denann would go beneath the earth inside mounds of earth 356 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:30,520 that were known as sheaths. These acted as these doorways into a 357 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:35,500 realm where forever after the Tuatha Denann would live. 358 00:27:36,540 --> 00:27:39,820 It was said that they all turned sideways into the light and they just 359 00:27:39,820 --> 00:27:40,920 disappeared on the ground. 360 00:27:41,780 --> 00:27:45,920 The Molethians then took control of the surface of Ireland and... 361 00:27:46,330 --> 00:27:49,590 Modern -day Irish people are thought to be descendants of the Milesians. 362 00:27:50,710 --> 00:27:56,690 Legend states that after the Tuatha Dé Danann descended below ground, a 363 00:27:56,690 --> 00:27:58,710 mysterious evolution took place. 364 00:27:59,350 --> 00:28:05,750 Once the Tuatha went underground, they evolved over many years 365 00:28:05,750 --> 00:28:08,430 into something known as the Ixi. 366 00:28:09,010 --> 00:28:14,630 That's better known in later mythology as the Elfin Folk, elves. 367 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:21,660 After the Tuatha Danann entered into the earthen mounds or she, 368 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:28,440 they became beings that could appear in physical form but could 369 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,040 equally vanish. 370 00:28:30,900 --> 00:28:36,940 Humans were able to interact with them often when they would see some kind of 371 00:28:36,940 --> 00:28:42,680 light that would be emanating from these earthen mounds and they would go 372 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:43,680 towards them. 373 00:28:43,950 --> 00:28:48,470 and when they were able to look into these lights, they could see the Tuath 374 00:28:48,470 --> 00:28:50,330 Danann, the she, the fairies. 375 00:28:50,750 --> 00:28:53,490 People would be able to join them in this realm. 376 00:28:54,990 --> 00:29:01,870 Reports of elves and fairies and little people have been around in Ireland as 377 00:29:01,870 --> 00:29:03,170 long as people have lived there. 378 00:29:03,870 --> 00:29:06,930 People saw something. They saw some types of beings. 379 00:29:07,150 --> 00:29:09,430 People still see these beings even today. 380 00:29:10,870 --> 00:29:15,800 One location in Ireland, where sightings of fairies are often reported, is at 381 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:20,840 the Hill of Tara, which is home to numerous ancient mounds, as well as a 382 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,580 monolith called Leofal. 383 00:29:22,860 --> 00:29:27,160 Legend states that this monolith was a gift from the Shining Ones. 384 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:34,280 The Leofal means the Stone of Destiny, and it refers to a standing stone 385 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:39,140 about five feet tall in County Meath Island. 386 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:44,820 In the legends of Leofol, we have the Tuatha Dé Danann bringing the energy of 387 00:29:44,820 --> 00:29:50,140 this stone down with them to this powerful place, this place of 388 00:29:50,140 --> 00:29:56,360 energy and current, because it can interact with the energy in the land. 389 00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:02,040 power of the land itself is the reason that the Danann come to this location in 390 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:03,040 the Hill of Tara. 391 00:30:03,100 --> 00:30:07,960 It was said that when the rightful king of Ireland came in contact with Leofol. 392 00:30:09,100 --> 00:30:13,540 It would scream out to announce that this was the rightful king of all 393 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:19,660 It would then imbue the king with qualities of strength and longevity and 394 00:30:19,660 --> 00:30:23,400 in order that he might reign over Ireland for a very long time. 395 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:28,500 To this day, ceremonies take place on the Hill of Tara. 396 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:35,780 The ancient Irish associated this stone with the elven folk and the fairies. 397 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:42,360 And people continue to see them today, and probably we will continue to see 398 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:43,560 in the future as well. 399 00:30:44,700 --> 00:30:50,140 If otherworldly beings called the Tuatha Dé Danann truly existed in ancient 400 00:30:50,140 --> 00:30:55,880 Ireland, is it possible that they are still present today, now known as the 401 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:57,260 or Fairy Folk? 402 00:30:57,630 --> 00:31:01,430 who inhabit the thousands of earthen mounds found throughout the country. 403 00:31:01,710 --> 00:31:08,610 Ancient astronaut theorists say yes and suggest that they may occupy a parallel 404 00:31:08,610 --> 00:31:09,610 dimension. 405 00:31:14,910 --> 00:31:21,010 Today, organizations exist throughout the world that investigate potential 406 00:31:21,010 --> 00:31:24,130 encounters with extraterrestrials visiting Earth. 407 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:31,640 But long before these groups existed, the people of the British Isles were 408 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,420 examining another type of otherworldly phenomenon. 409 00:31:36,380 --> 00:31:40,680 In the 1920s, something very strange happened in Ireland. There were suddenly 410 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,540 mass sightings of fairies. 411 00:31:44,060 --> 00:31:50,220 So much so that a captain, Quentin Crawford, formed what he called the 412 00:31:50,220 --> 00:31:53,900 for the Investigation of Fairies, which was a very scientific... 413 00:31:54,490 --> 00:31:58,950 and serious approach at collecting data about these fairy sightings. 414 00:32:00,050 --> 00:32:06,650 Like a modern UFO group today, their mission was to study elves, 415 00:32:06,770 --> 00:32:11,970 figure elves out, what they were doing there, try to communicate with elves. 416 00:32:12,170 --> 00:32:17,250 And they absolutely believed that fairies and elves were real and existed 417 00:32:17,250 --> 00:32:18,610 throughout the British Isles. 418 00:32:19,110 --> 00:32:22,730 People from all walks of life contacted the organization. 419 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,960 reporting encounters with beings they believed were fairies. 420 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:33,520 Witnesses described fairies leading them to buried relics, walking through solid 421 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:37,760 walls, and even transforming into orbs of light. 422 00:32:39,180 --> 00:32:44,040 This society did important research up until World War II when their records 423 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:45,040 were destroyed. 424 00:32:45,100 --> 00:32:48,720 And then in 1949, they began doing research again. 425 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:54,900 hundreds of members joined the society in the 1950s, including Walt Disney. 426 00:32:55,220 --> 00:32:58,960 Now, what's amazing about this is that in order to become a member of the 427 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:04,640 society, you had to declare an absolute belief in the existence of fairies. And 428 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,720 who other than Walt Disney in the modern world is more closely connected to 429 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:09,720 fairies? 430 00:33:10,060 --> 00:33:13,920 The idea that you would actually have a very serious... 431 00:33:14,350 --> 00:33:20,110 Society that was looking into fairies shows that in the British Isles and in 432 00:33:20,110 --> 00:33:26,850 Ireland, the whole concept of elven folk and fairies and leprechauns is 433 00:33:26,850 --> 00:33:29,330 very real and continues to this day. 434 00:33:30,150 --> 00:33:36,790 In 1969, French astronomer Jacques Pellet published a groundbreaking book 435 00:33:36,790 --> 00:33:42,450 unexplained phenomena called Passport to Magonia, From Folklore to Flying 436 00:33:42,450 --> 00:33:43,450 Saucers. 437 00:33:44,110 --> 00:33:48,950 In it, he proposed that historical accounts of fairies and other strange 438 00:33:48,950 --> 00:33:53,930 could be the same phenomenon that today is interpreted as extraterrestrial. 439 00:33:54,810 --> 00:34:01,310 Jacques did what I think is one of the most important books about the UFO 440 00:34:01,310 --> 00:34:07,390 phenomena, trying to understand of all the things in the sky and on the ground 441 00:34:07,390 --> 00:34:11,449 through history that have either been painted, photographed. 442 00:34:12,699 --> 00:34:16,620 Caught on radar, what are they and why are they? 443 00:34:17,460 --> 00:34:23,440 Every culture speaks of the others, whether it be the wee people, the 444 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:28,360 leprechauns, or the fairies, or the angel, or the demon. 445 00:34:29,100 --> 00:34:32,940 Our brothers in Islam know them very well and they're called the jinn. 446 00:34:33,500 --> 00:34:39,080 And the one thing that is taught about the jinn is potentially they are 447 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:40,620 energetic beings. 448 00:34:41,449 --> 00:34:46,230 and their place of residence is in the domain of inner Earth. 449 00:34:46,449 --> 00:34:51,949 And this leads us to ask the question, if the domains of inner Earth are 450 00:34:51,949 --> 00:34:58,270 actually physical within this dimension, or possibly in a parallel dimension. 451 00:34:59,450 --> 00:35:04,610 According to Belay, the strange beings that humans have reported encountering 452 00:35:04,610 --> 00:35:08,990 for thousands of years may in fact be interdimensional. 453 00:35:11,240 --> 00:35:17,720 I believe that from the time of the Big Bang, if it created one universe, 454 00:35:18,060 --> 00:35:20,560 why couldn't it create a multitude of universes? 455 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:27,260 Might there be connections between the different universes where elements 456 00:35:27,260 --> 00:35:33,440 from the other universe cross into our universe and where elements of our 457 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,580 universe cross into theirs? 458 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,280 That would explain how people... 459 00:35:39,690 --> 00:35:44,550 coming upon the Xi might not just see an underground civilization, but they 460 00:35:44,550 --> 00:35:46,710 might see an interdimensional civilization. 461 00:35:47,950 --> 00:35:53,270 Could it be that sightings of fairies and similar figures described in other 462 00:35:53,270 --> 00:35:58,290 ancient traditions are encounters with beings that occupy parallel dimensions? 463 00:35:58,730 --> 00:36:04,610 And if so, are these the same beings described today as extraterrestrials? 464 00:36:06,570 --> 00:36:11,850 There are possible parallels between the she or fairies that seem to be similar 465 00:36:11,850 --> 00:36:14,190 to UFO accounts. 466 00:36:14,530 --> 00:36:21,030 For example, seeing strange lights like what's known as, in Irish and British 467 00:36:21,030 --> 00:36:27,390 tradition, the will -o' -the -wisp, these fairy lights that move and lead 468 00:36:27,390 --> 00:36:33,210 astray. When you get to the 20th century and where people were trying to figure 469 00:36:33,210 --> 00:36:34,370 out human abductions, 470 00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:40,140 You start hearing from people saying, well, they shapeshifted in front of me. 471 00:36:40,240 --> 00:36:44,300 There were beams of light that took us up and down. They can disappear. 472 00:36:44,620 --> 00:36:46,760 They can go through windows, walls. 473 00:36:47,380 --> 00:36:53,120 And those are the same verbs and nouns that were being used in the centuries 474 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:59,500 before in Ireland and other places about fairies and so -called pretend 475 00:36:59,500 --> 00:37:00,500 creatures. 476 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,400 There are stories and... 477 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:10,040 personal experiences similar to ufo accounts that have been recorded of 478 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:17,020 time where somebody is taken into the other worlds by the fairies and uh 479 00:37:17,020 --> 00:37:22,340 they've been there for a few hours but it's been a few days when they return 480 00:37:22,340 --> 00:37:29,240 oftentimes you hear stories of missing time of people disappearing 481 00:37:29,240 --> 00:37:34,460 for weeks or losing their memory for significant events. 482 00:37:34,820 --> 00:37:41,240 And frankly, that is similar to what you hear from modern -day 483 00:37:41,240 --> 00:37:43,120 UFO abduction stories. 484 00:37:43,980 --> 00:37:49,740 Could it be that the folklore of cultures all around the globe is based 485 00:37:49,740 --> 00:37:53,740 otherworldly presence that people have been encountering since humankind's 486 00:37:53,740 --> 00:37:54,740 earliest history? 487 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,580 Ancient astronaut theorists say yes. 488 00:37:58,330 --> 00:38:03,630 And according to the Irish, at least once a year, the veil is lifted between 489 00:38:03,630 --> 00:38:05,590 realm and their. 490 00:38:13,050 --> 00:38:19,030 The hill of Ushna, Ireland, located 60 miles west of Dublin. 491 00:38:19,910 --> 00:38:23,410 This site has been sacred to the Irish for centuries. 492 00:38:25,030 --> 00:38:30,300 Each year in early May, Locals gather at this sacred site to celebrate the 493 00:38:30,300 --> 00:38:31,980 ancient festival of Bealtaine. 494 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:39,940 Dating back more than 3 ,000 years, Bealtaine and its famous bonfire provide 495 00:38:39,940 --> 00:38:44,440 link between modern Christian Ireland and its pagan Celtic past. 496 00:38:45,620 --> 00:38:49,100 This festival is the traditional start of summer. 497 00:38:50,020 --> 00:38:56,140 The Celtic people divided the year into a dark half and then a bright half. 498 00:38:58,140 --> 00:39:01,840 It was so important that people understood the precise times of year. 499 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:06,000 agricultural reasons, the people working the fields didn't have the knowledge of 500 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,280 astronomy, so the fire was the signal, and they saw the fire. 501 00:39:09,820 --> 00:39:13,180 From the highest point on Aisne, 20 counties are visible. 502 00:39:13,540 --> 00:39:17,960 So once the main fire is lit on Aisne, in a circle, all of the hills around 503 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:21,280 light their fires, and then it spreads and spreads throughout the whole 504 00:39:21,620 --> 00:39:23,440 And it happens instantly. 505 00:39:24,020 --> 00:39:26,220 The fire is the signal to all of the country. 506 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:27,780 that now is the summertime. 507 00:39:28,820 --> 00:39:33,880 But the Altena, which is also celebrated at other ancient sites throughout 508 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:37,260 Ireland, serves another more profound purpose. 509 00:39:37,860 --> 00:39:43,420 Many Irish believe that during this festival, it is possible for humans to 510 00:39:43,420 --> 00:39:46,900 inside the mounds into an entirely different reality. 511 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:53,520 There's a threshold or boundary between worlds that become thin, and human 512 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:59,500 beings... can see into the other world or encounter otherworldly beings more 513 00:39:59,500 --> 00:40:00,500 easily. 514 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:06,460 Bealtaine, or May Day, is associated very strongly with the she, the fairy 515 00:40:06,460 --> 00:40:07,980 people, the shining ones. 516 00:40:09,240 --> 00:40:14,340 Through festivals like Bealtaine, the people of Ireland maintain a strong 517 00:40:14,340 --> 00:40:19,840 connection to the traditions of their past, traditions of shining beings who 518 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:23,180 came down from the sky and continue to live on. 519 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:30,340 When I was growing up in Ireland, people, at 520 00:40:30,340 --> 00:40:36,780 least in the rural areas, and Ireland was very rural at the time, nobody would 521 00:40:36,780 --> 00:40:43,120 admit to not believing in the fairies. The existence of the fairy folk was not 522 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:44,120 questioned. 523 00:40:45,140 --> 00:40:50,720 This idea that Ireland has had this love affair with leprechauns and fairy 524 00:40:50,720 --> 00:40:56,220 folk... I would ask the question, well, what is the underlying meaning of this? 525 00:40:56,380 --> 00:41:01,900 Because stories of fairy folk go back at least 3 ,000 years in Ireland. 526 00:41:02,220 --> 00:41:06,760 In the case of Tortua de Danann, it's even earlier. 527 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:14,300 It's possible that what we have here is one of the earliest examples of 528 00:41:14,300 --> 00:41:15,940 ancient astronaut teachers. 529 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,900 This is the way it is now. So do we believe in fairies and leprechauns in 530 00:41:25,900 --> 00:41:26,900 Ireland? 531 00:41:27,140 --> 00:41:34,120 Absolutely 100%. Is it possible that beneath the idyllic rolling countryside 532 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:40,040 Ireland, there are entrances to a hidden realm that has been inhabited by 533 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,340 otherworldly beings for more than 3 ,000 years? 534 00:41:44,340 --> 00:41:49,240 Could they be the descendants of extraterrestrials who were responsible 535 00:41:49,240 --> 00:41:50,880 creation of the human race? 536 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:58,420 Perhaps the whimsical legends of Ireland are not so whimsical after all, but 537 00:41:58,420 --> 00:42:04,020 contain profound truths about an alien presence on Earth that is still with us 538 00:42:04,020 --> 00:42:05,020 today. 50250
