OR:
Towering figures
standing watch over the Earth.

00:00:05,088 --> 00:00:08,049
WILLIAM HENRY:
There's a built‐in
human response
3
00:00:08,050 --> 00:00:11,385
to seeing these giant statues,
and that is awe.
4
00:00:11,386 --> 00:00:15,181
NARRATOR:
Are they merely testaments
to humanity's past?
5
00:00:15,182 --> 00:00:18,267
HUGH NEWMAN:
People still revere
these stone giants
6
00:00:18,268 --> 00:00:20,937
that were built
in the ancient world.
7
00:00:20,938 --> 00:00:24,440
And magical qualities
can be associated with this.
8
00:00:24,441 --> 00:00:27,568
NARRATOR:
Or do they serve
a more profound purpose?
9
00:00:27,569 --> 00:00:30,863
BRUCE FENTON:
These giant statues of Tula
have this
10
00:00:30,864 --> 00:00:33,699
snakeskin‐like feature
to their tops of their heads.
11
00:00:33,700 --> 00:00:35,535
GIORGIO A. TSOUKALOS:
So we are looking
12
00:00:35,536 --> 00:00:38,037
at a representation
of a cosmic being
13
00:00:38,038 --> 00:00:41,791
‐that, a long time ago, arrived?
‐DAVID SEDAT: Exactly.
14
00:00:41,792 --> 00:00:44,043
NARRATOR:
Could they be hiding
ancient knowledge,
15
00:00:44,044 --> 00:00:47,713
brought here by visitors
from other worlds?
16
00:00:47,714 --> 00:00:51,759
DAVID CHILDRESS:
We want to stand in front
of these huge figures
17
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,470
and look at them,
because once we're able
18
00:00:54,471 --> 00:00:59,309
to reconnect with the gods,
all things become possible.
19
00:01:01,603 --> 00:01:03,938
NARRATOR:
There is a doorway
20
00:01:03,939 --> 00:01:06,732
in the universe.
21
00:01:06,733 --> 00:01:09,736
Beyond it is
the promise of truth.
22
00:01:11,238 --> 00:01:13,447
It demands
we question everything
23
00:01:13,448 --> 00:01:15,783
we have ever been taught.
24
00:01:15,784 --> 00:01:19,996
The evidence is all around us.
25
00:01:19,997 --> 00:01:23,541
The future is
right before our eyes.
26
00:01:23,542 --> 00:01:26,210
We are not alone.
27
00:01:26,211 --> 00:01:29,715
We have never been alone.
28
00:01:41,268 --> 00:01:45,021
NARRATOR:
March, 1813.
29
00:01:45,022 --> 00:01:49,942
Swiss explorer Johann Burckhardt
is traveling north
30
00:01:49,943 --> 00:01:52,278
along the Nile River
when he comes across
31
00:01:52,279 --> 00:01:56,198
three massive stone heads
protruding from the sand.
32
00:01:56,199 --> 00:01:59,702
Four years later,
a thorough excavation reveals
33
00:01:59,703 --> 00:02:03,080
a 3,200‐year‐old temple complex.
34
00:02:03,081 --> 00:02:06,459
The Abu Simbel temple,
as it is now known,
35
00:02:06,460 --> 00:02:09,503
contains some
of the largest stone statues
36
00:02:09,504 --> 00:02:12,633
ever constructed
in the ancient world.
37
00:02:14,885 --> 00:02:17,928
HENRY:
In 1244 BC, the Egyptians built,
38
00:02:17,929 --> 00:02:20,306
in a mountain,
an incredible temple complex
39
00:02:20,307 --> 00:02:22,100
devoted to Ramesses the Great.
40
00:02:24,144 --> 00:02:26,896
These statues are colossal.
41
00:02:26,897 --> 00:02:29,148
They're 64 feet tall.
42
00:02:29,149 --> 00:02:31,192
And the Egyptians
would visit Abu Simbel
43
00:02:31,193 --> 00:02:33,653
and they would see
their king, their pharaoh,
44
00:02:33,654 --> 00:02:37,239
as this great godlike being
in his perfection.
45
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,493
And people would understand
that their king,
46
00:02:40,494 --> 00:02:45,165
their pharaoh,
was, in fact, a god incarnate.
47
00:02:46,500 --> 00:02:48,334
NARRATOR:
In the 1960s,
48
00:02:48,335 --> 00:02:50,753
the temple was
carefully dismantled
49
00:02:50,754 --> 00:02:54,674
and moved to higher ground
to make way for the Aswan Dam.
50
00:02:54,675 --> 00:02:58,469
Engineers overseeing
the relocation efforts
51
00:02:58,470 --> 00:03:00,971
paid particular attention
to assure that both
52
00:03:00,972 --> 00:03:03,391
the geographical
and astronomical alignments
53
00:03:03,392 --> 00:03:06,853
of the original site
remained intact.
54
00:03:10,148 --> 00:03:15,111
Twice a year, on February 22
and October 22,
55
00:03:15,112 --> 00:03:19,782
the dawning rays of the sun
pass through the temple entry.
56
00:03:19,783 --> 00:03:22,493
The light travels 185 feet
57
00:03:22,494 --> 00:03:25,329
through a great hall
of stone giants,
58
00:03:25,330 --> 00:03:28,207
and for 20 minutes,
shines directly upon
59
00:03:28,208 --> 00:03:31,419
the carved statues
of the Egyptian gods Amun,
60
00:03:31,420 --> 00:03:34,797
Ra‐Horakhty
and the pharaoh Ramesses II,
61
00:03:34,798 --> 00:03:36,674
located at the end
of the temple.
62
00:03:36,675 --> 00:03:38,676
HENRY:
These colossal stone statues
63
00:03:38,677 --> 00:03:41,095
serve more than
just an artistic purpose,
64
00:03:41,096 --> 00:03:42,972
more than a political purpose.
65
00:03:42,973 --> 00:03:45,891
That purpose, we're told,
centers around the idea
66
00:03:45,892 --> 00:03:49,728
that these colossal statues
are transmitters.
67
00:03:49,729 --> 00:03:52,231
They're utilized as a mechanism
of drawing down
68
00:03:52,232 --> 00:03:55,317
cosmic energies, cosmic forces
69
00:03:55,318 --> 00:03:58,988
that then can be emitted
into the surrounding area.
70
00:03:58,989 --> 00:04:03,325
The question arises‐‐
are these cosmic vibrations used
71
00:04:03,326 --> 00:04:04,910
in just a religious sense,
72
00:04:04,911 --> 00:04:08,539
or is this more
of a technological purpose?
73
00:04:08,540 --> 00:04:13,043
NARRATOR:
While the Egyptians' notion of
stone statues possessing energy
74
00:04:13,044 --> 00:04:16,422
is regarded by mainstream
scholars as purely symbolic,
75
00:04:16,423 --> 00:04:19,091
ancient astronaut
theorists believe
76
00:04:19,092 --> 00:04:21,552
that it was meant
to be taken literally.
77
00:04:21,553 --> 00:04:25,973
And they suggest evidence can be
found by examining similar ideas
78
00:04:25,974 --> 00:04:30,603
held by other civilizations
throughout the ancient world.
79
00:04:30,604 --> 00:04:34,982
CHILDRESS:
In a number of ancient
societies, people associated
80
00:04:34,983 --> 00:04:39,195
these statues
as having an energy.
81
00:04:39,196 --> 00:04:41,447
And those statues were alive.
82
00:04:41,448 --> 00:04:45,785
They had even a consciousness.
They had power in them.
83
00:04:45,786 --> 00:04:50,206
HENRY:
Some of the best‐known
giant statues in the world
84
00:04:50,207 --> 00:04:53,584
are the moai heads
that we find on Easter Island,
85
00:04:53,585 --> 00:04:56,337
that were actually utilized
by the Easter Islanders
86
00:04:56,338 --> 00:05:00,174
as a conductive mechanism
for drawing down Mana,
87
00:05:00,175 --> 00:05:02,343
spiritual power.
88
00:05:02,344 --> 00:05:07,973
We found that in Copán, probably
Gobekli Tepe is the same idea.
89
00:05:07,974 --> 00:05:10,768
That these colossal
stone statues
90
00:05:10,769 --> 00:05:13,062
are more than just statues.
91
00:05:13,063 --> 00:05:15,064
NARRATOR:
Is it possible
92
00:05:15,065 --> 00:05:17,733
that ancient stone statues
found throughout the world
93
00:05:17,734 --> 00:05:22,363
were built to serve
a technological purpose?
94
00:05:22,364 --> 00:05:25,074
While the idea
may sound far‐fetched,
95
00:05:25,075 --> 00:05:26,742
geologists point out
96
00:05:26,743 --> 00:05:30,330
that stone is not as lifeless
as it might appear.
97
00:05:31,957 --> 00:05:36,168
Rocks and us are made
of the same exact thing: matter.
98
00:05:36,169 --> 00:05:39,046
And all matter vibrates,
it all has a frequency.
99
00:05:39,047 --> 00:05:41,048
It‐it all has energy.
100
00:05:41,049 --> 00:05:43,843
When you look at a rock,
it's not just
101
00:05:43,844 --> 00:05:48,055
a plain inanimate object,
it actually has tons and tons
102
00:05:48,056 --> 00:05:50,224
of different types
of minerals in it.
103
00:05:50,225 --> 00:05:55,646
And these minerals are‐are
like a recipe in a‐a cake mix.
104
00:05:55,647 --> 00:05:57,606
They can be all different types
of things.
105
00:05:57,607 --> 00:06:00,860
Mother Nature has her own
cookbook, so to speak.
106
00:06:00,861 --> 00:06:04,446
ROGER HOPKINS:
Stones give you
a different feeling.
107
00:06:04,447 --> 00:06:07,575
I mean, some stones
will feel warm.
108
00:06:07,576 --> 00:06:10,870
Some will feel cold.
109
00:06:10,871 --> 00:06:14,957
Others will have
a drama about them.
110
00:06:14,958 --> 00:06:19,920
Stonework has
a very primordial feeling.
111
00:06:19,921 --> 00:06:22,715
I mean, the ancients
were drawn to it.
112
00:06:22,716 --> 00:06:27,428
WILLIAMS:
All this, uh, radiation that
we're getting from cell phones,
113
00:06:27,429 --> 00:06:32,308
it's almost ironic, if you look
at it‐‐ that the one thing
114
00:06:32,309 --> 00:06:34,727
that we're trying to get away
from, the‐the technology
115
00:06:34,728 --> 00:06:37,730
and the EMFs that we're
bombarded with every day‐‐
116
00:06:37,731 --> 00:06:40,983
we actually get those
from rocks.
117
00:06:40,984 --> 00:06:45,487
Most stones have a weak
magnetic field to them.
118
00:06:45,488 --> 00:06:46,947
And some rocks
119
00:06:46,948 --> 00:06:49,742
have a more pronounced
magnetic field to them.
120
00:06:49,743 --> 00:06:53,120
And certain stones act
as conductors of energy.
121
00:06:53,121 --> 00:06:55,415
And I think
the ancients knew it.
122
00:06:57,417 --> 00:07:00,127
NARRATOR:
Of all the minerals
capable of conducting
123
00:07:00,128 --> 00:07:04,006
and even generating
electromagnetic forms of energy,
124
00:07:04,007 --> 00:07:07,134
the most efficient,
and at times most powerful,
125
00:07:07,135 --> 00:07:08,761
are found in granite.
126
00:07:08,762 --> 00:07:12,931
NEWMAN:
Red granite is used a lot
in ancient Egypt.
127
00:07:12,932 --> 00:07:14,433
But why is this?
128
00:07:14,434 --> 00:07:16,560
It's believed
it's because it was
129
00:07:16,561 --> 00:07:19,229
very, very powerful
energetically.
130
00:07:19,230 --> 00:07:21,940
And this is partly to do
with the piezoelectric effect
131
00:07:21,941 --> 00:07:23,609
of the quartz,
132
00:07:23,610 --> 00:07:28,864
because granite has about 55%
quartz in its makeup,
133
00:07:28,865 --> 00:07:33,327
and so when you put weight on
it, you actually get this effect
134
00:07:33,328 --> 00:07:36,789
of, like, an electric charge
coming off the rock.
135
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:39,625
NARRATOR:
Abundant in nearly all
the ancient stone giants
136
00:07:39,626 --> 00:07:41,669
found throughout the world,
137
00:07:41,670 --> 00:07:45,589
including the sandstone figures
at Abu Simbel in Egypt,
138
00:07:45,590 --> 00:07:49,968
quartz is known to possess
piezoelectric properties.
139
00:07:49,969 --> 00:07:52,262
Today, quartz is being used
140
00:07:52,263 --> 00:07:55,683
for the most powerful data
storage device ever created:
141
00:07:55,684 --> 00:07:58,977
the 5D Superman memory crystal.
142
00:07:58,978 --> 00:08:01,980
One of the new ways scientists
are working on data storage
143
00:08:01,981 --> 00:08:04,191
is the 5D quartz crystal.
144
00:08:04,192 --> 00:08:06,985
And this is a way of keeping
a huge density of data
145
00:08:06,986 --> 00:08:09,571
in a relatively small object.
146
00:08:09,572 --> 00:08:14,243
This is an incredibly secure and
lasting way of encoding data
147
00:08:14,244 --> 00:08:16,954
because the data is actually
physically encoded
148
00:08:16,955 --> 00:08:18,539
into the crystal.
149
00:08:18,540 --> 00:08:21,500
It's in there forever,
until that quartz is destroyed,
150
00:08:21,501 --> 00:08:23,837
and it's very hard
to destroy that quartz.
151
00:08:24,879 --> 00:08:26,422
NARRATOR:
In 2018,
152
00:08:26,423 --> 00:08:31,385
tech entrepreneur Nova Spivack
used a 5D quartz crystal
153
00:08:31,386 --> 00:08:34,179
to create a permanent
space library
154
00:08:34,180 --> 00:08:38,935
and sent it into orbit aboard
the SpaceX Heavy Falcon rocket.
155
00:08:40,228 --> 00:08:42,855
Quartz is very stable.
It's a crystal.
156
00:08:42,856 --> 00:08:45,399
It doesn't change,
even for billions of years.
157
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,026
So if you put data in quartz,
158
00:08:47,027 --> 00:08:49,194
it's gonna last
basically forever.
159
00:08:49,195 --> 00:08:53,782
NARRATOR: At the University
of Southampton in England,
160
00:08:53,783 --> 00:08:56,744
Dr. Peter Kazansky
demonstrates to author
161
00:08:56,745 --> 00:08:59,663
and ancient astronaut theorist
Andrew Collins
162
00:08:59,664 --> 00:09:03,376
just how this new 5D quartz
crystal technology works.
163
00:09:17,265 --> 00:09:19,141
How much information
could you put
164
00:09:19,142 --> 00:09:23,063
into this small piece
of crystal glass?
165
00:09:30,445 --> 00:09:32,822
‐800 Blu‐ray discs?
‐Yes.
166
00:09:37,410 --> 00:09:40,829
NARRATOR:
This tiny piece of quartz glass
is able to store
167
00:09:40,830 --> 00:09:45,626
the same amount of information
as 600 standard smartphones.
168
00:09:45,627 --> 00:09:49,004
And the amount of 5D quartz
drives it would take to store
169
00:09:49,005 --> 00:09:53,842
the entire British Library
could fit in a shoebox.
170
00:09:53,843 --> 00:09:57,012
So, potentially, all of the
information in the world
171
00:09:57,013 --> 00:10:01,351
can now be stored indefinitely.
172
00:10:03,478 --> 00:10:06,063
NARRATOR:
To demonstrate
how the technology works,
173
00:10:06,064 --> 00:10:10,610
Dr. Kazansky transfers a copy of
the Bible onto a quartz drive.
174
00:10:19,035 --> 00:10:22,287
What we're looking at here,
then, is the very first stage
175
00:10:22,288 --> 00:10:28,293
of converting the Bible,
in this instance, uh, into data
176
00:10:28,294 --> 00:10:31,464
which could be stored within
one of these memory crystals.
177
00:10:50,692 --> 00:10:54,194
NARRATOR:
The laser sends pulses
into the quartz glass,
178
00:10:54,195 --> 00:10:58,157
producing a grid
of nano‐sized dots or voxels.
179
00:10:58,158 --> 00:11:02,202
A traditional storage device,
like a CD, stores information
180
00:11:02,203 --> 00:11:06,331
in pixels, and each pixel
can hold one bit of information.
181
00:11:06,332 --> 00:11:08,208
In a quartz drive,
182
00:11:08,209 --> 00:11:11,962
each voxel can hold
eight bits of information.
183
00:11:11,963 --> 00:11:15,591
COLLINS:
So stored within here now
184
00:11:15,592 --> 00:11:20,387
is the entire Bible
within this tiny memory crystal.
185
00:11:20,388 --> 00:11:24,809
So, potentially, this could now
be preserved forever.
186
00:11:28,730 --> 00:11:30,647
It's incredible.
187
00:11:30,648 --> 00:11:33,567
NARRATOR:
The technology that
Dr. Peter Kazansky and others
188
00:11:33,568 --> 00:11:36,278
are developing
is still in its infancy,
189
00:11:36,279 --> 00:11:40,908
but is it possible that some
form of quartz memory drives
190
00:11:40,909 --> 00:11:44,745
could have existed
in the ancient world?
191
00:11:44,746 --> 00:11:47,289
Ancient civilizations clearly
had very advanced technologies
192
00:11:47,290 --> 00:11:48,874
for working with stone.
193
00:11:48,875 --> 00:11:51,710
They had advanced technologies
for working with crystal,
194
00:11:51,711 --> 00:11:52,878
and with metal.
195
00:11:52,879 --> 00:11:55,714
It's a reasonable
question to ask‐‐
196
00:11:55,715 --> 00:11:58,050
if a previous civilization
was so advanced
197
00:11:58,051 --> 00:12:02,471
it could build a pyramid, could
it have encoded data as well
198
00:12:02,472 --> 00:12:05,349
in a form that we
haven't figured out yet?
199
00:12:05,350 --> 00:12:07,768
NARRATOR:
Could it be
200
00:12:07,769 --> 00:12:10,604
that embedded within the stone
giants of the ancient world
201
00:12:10,605 --> 00:12:13,023
are massive amounts of data?
202
00:12:13,024 --> 00:12:15,525
Perhaps further clues
can be found
203
00:12:15,526 --> 00:12:18,153
by examining
colossal stone heads
204
00:12:18,154 --> 00:12:22,242
unearthed in Central America
that are magnetically charged.
205
00:12:31,084 --> 00:12:34,378
NARRATOR:
June, 2019.
206
00:12:34,379 --> 00:12:38,924
A team of researchers
from MIT, Harvard and Yale
207
00:12:38,925 --> 00:12:40,884
announce that
they have discovered
208
00:12:40,885 --> 00:12:44,513
unusual magnetic anomalies
within the colossal stone heads
209
00:12:44,514 --> 00:12:46,556
attributed to the Monte Alto,
210
00:12:46,557 --> 00:12:52,313
a Mesoamerican civilization
that emerged around 1800 B. C.
211
00:12:54,065 --> 00:12:58,151
CHILDRESS:
Some of these statues have
very strong magnetic fields.
212
00:12:58,152 --> 00:13:01,405
The creators of these statures
were totally aware
213
00:13:01,406 --> 00:13:04,199
of these magnetic fields,
214
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,494
and that is something that
shocked modern archeologists.
215
00:13:07,495 --> 00:13:11,456
That this rather primitive
culture, they thought,
216
00:13:11,457 --> 00:13:15,460
was aware of magnetism
and that they actually chose
217
00:13:15,461 --> 00:13:20,007
certain rocks because
of the magnetic field.
218
00:13:20,008 --> 00:13:23,010
NARRATOR:
In Mexico, similar statues
219
00:13:23,011 --> 00:13:25,178
created by the
Olmec civilization
220
00:13:25,179 --> 00:13:28,807
were also found to emit
magnetic anomalies.
221
00:13:28,808 --> 00:13:31,852
These intricately carved heads
vary in height
222
00:13:31,853 --> 00:13:33,395
from nearly five feet
223
00:13:33,396 --> 00:13:36,148
to over 11 feet tall,
224
00:13:36,149 --> 00:13:39,276
the largest weighing
approximately 50 tons.
225
00:13:39,277 --> 00:13:42,320
Like the Monte Alto sculptures,
226
00:13:42,321 --> 00:13:45,365
most of these heads
were made from basalt.
227
00:13:45,366 --> 00:13:48,785
Basalt has large quantities
228
00:13:48,786 --> 00:13:51,246
of‐of iron and magnesium
in them.
229
00:13:51,247 --> 00:13:55,042
The Olmec were so precise
with knowing
230
00:13:55,043 --> 00:13:58,045
where the magnetic fields were
that they actually carved
231
00:13:58,046 --> 00:14:00,589
the structure
around these anomalies.
232
00:14:00,590 --> 00:14:04,134
So when scientists
use a magnetometer
233
00:14:04,135 --> 00:14:05,927
around the stone statue,
234
00:14:05,928 --> 00:14:10,098
they notice the nose
or the cheeks, around the chin‐‐
235
00:14:10,099 --> 00:14:12,476
the magnetic fields
are strongest there.
236
00:14:12,477 --> 00:14:16,980
COLLINS:
The great heads of the Olmec
are made of basalt.
237
00:14:16,981 --> 00:14:20,901
Basalt is a volcanic substance.
238
00:14:20,902 --> 00:14:24,905
And this closest source
to many of these heads
239
00:14:24,906 --> 00:14:27,741
is anything up to
100 miles away.
240
00:14:27,742 --> 00:14:30,952
And this is interesting
because I don't think
241
00:14:30,953 --> 00:14:33,705
it's simply the case
that the basalt
242
00:14:33,706 --> 00:14:38,335
was easy to sculpt
into the forms of head.
243
00:14:38,336 --> 00:14:42,756
WILLIAMS:
Basalt is dense. It's very, very
heavy, thick rock,
244
00:14:42,757 --> 00:14:44,800
and it's very difficult
to work with,
245
00:14:44,801 --> 00:14:49,304
let alone carve with
rudimentary tools like flint,
246
00:14:49,305 --> 00:14:54,101
because they range higher
on Mohs' test as far as density,
247
00:14:54,102 --> 00:14:58,480
and flint is a much softer
material than basalt,
248
00:14:58,481 --> 00:15:00,482
so it's difficult to understand
249
00:15:00,483 --> 00:15:04,277
how they carved these things
and the intricate detail
250
00:15:04,278 --> 00:15:08,241
on some of them
is just incredible.
251
00:15:10,326 --> 00:15:13,161
NEWMAN: With these stone giants,
it really is a question
252
00:15:13,162 --> 00:15:16,414
as to why they chose
these specific types of rock,
253
00:15:16,415 --> 00:15:19,334
like granite, we find
it's very crystalline,
254
00:15:19,335 --> 00:15:21,670
it's also electrically
conductive.
255
00:15:21,671 --> 00:15:23,672
We find basalt,
which is volcanic,
256
00:15:23,673 --> 00:15:25,423
again, this is very magnetic.
257
00:15:25,424 --> 00:15:27,676
And so, again,
it can be conductive
258
00:15:27,677 --> 00:15:29,803
for various different purposes.
259
00:15:29,804 --> 00:15:31,596
So what's going on here?
260
00:15:31,597 --> 00:15:34,808
Were they specifically choosing
certain types of rock
261
00:15:34,809 --> 00:15:38,270
for technological reasons?
262
00:15:38,271 --> 00:15:42,440
When we look at how the ancients
were selecting certain stones
263
00:15:42,441 --> 00:15:45,026
that were magnetic
or had certain energy,
264
00:15:45,027 --> 00:15:48,321
we wonder how they could know
265
00:15:48,322 --> 00:15:52,993
about all of the‐the properties
of these stones.
266
00:15:52,994 --> 00:15:55,704
Are they getting
this information
267
00:15:55,705 --> 00:15:57,957
from extraterrestrials?
268
00:15:59,876 --> 00:16:02,377
NARRATOR:
Extraterrestrials?
269
00:16:02,378 --> 00:16:05,589
Is it possible that the
ancient people of Mesoamerica
270
00:16:05,590 --> 00:16:09,342
were given instructions to
sculpt these giant basalt heads
271
00:16:09,343 --> 00:16:11,970
by alien visitors?
272
00:16:11,971 --> 00:16:14,139
But if so, why?
273
00:16:14,140 --> 00:16:18,810
As far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,
274
00:16:18,811 --> 00:16:22,480
the answer is simple:
they were intended to be used
275
00:16:22,481 --> 00:16:25,359
for data storage.
276
00:16:26,861 --> 00:16:31,323
In 2017, IBM made a huge
breakthrough in data storage.
277
00:16:31,324 --> 00:16:35,577
They figured out how to store
201 gigabytes of data
278
00:16:35,578 --> 00:16:37,454
on a square inch of tape.
279
00:16:37,455 --> 00:16:39,331
That means a magnetic tape reel
280
00:16:39,332 --> 00:16:41,208
the size of the palm
of your hand
281
00:16:41,209 --> 00:16:45,378
can hold as much data as
you would have in 330 laptops.
282
00:16:45,379 --> 00:16:49,257
WILLIAMS:
Mag tape, mag stripe tape
is made out of, basically,
283
00:16:49,258 --> 00:16:52,385
very, very tiny
magnetic particles.
284
00:16:52,386 --> 00:16:54,471
And what they do is
they‐they adhere them
285
00:16:54,472 --> 00:16:56,723
to the back of a‐a thin strip.
286
00:16:56,724 --> 00:17:00,101
And the way it works is
the little metal filings,
287
00:17:00,102 --> 00:17:02,062
which are very microscopic,
288
00:17:02,063 --> 00:17:04,481
they would all align
in a certain pattern,
289
00:17:04,482 --> 00:17:06,566
kind of like the grooves
on a record player.
290
00:17:06,567 --> 00:17:09,069
And it would take
another piece of equipment,
291
00:17:09,070 --> 00:17:11,363
similar to the one
that actually aligned them,
292
00:17:11,364 --> 00:17:14,908
to interpret how those particles
are lined up.
293
00:17:14,909 --> 00:17:19,204
And we still use it to this day
for backup data storage.
294
00:17:19,205 --> 00:17:23,708
CHILDRESS:
And so, once again, we have to
ask ourself if these statues
295
00:17:23,709 --> 00:17:29,506
were in fact devices
that had recorded information,
296
00:17:29,507 --> 00:17:33,093
and information
could be extracted from them,
297
00:17:33,094 --> 00:17:36,972
like a computer hard drive,
or something like that.
298
00:17:36,973 --> 00:17:40,642
And so there's this energy
associated with them.
299
00:17:40,643 --> 00:17:43,019
WILLIAMS:
Most people don't even realize
300
00:17:43,020 --> 00:17:44,854
when they're looking
at some of the artwork
301
00:17:44,855 --> 00:17:47,899
or some of the sculptures or
carvings that the ancients did,
302
00:17:47,900 --> 00:17:50,694
they can't figure out how did
they know about magnetic fields?
303
00:17:50,695 --> 00:17:52,028
How did they understand?
304
00:17:52,029 --> 00:17:53,655
Well, maybe
there's a technology there
305
00:17:53,656 --> 00:17:55,366
that we don't understand today.
306
00:17:57,034 --> 00:17:58,451
SPIVACK:
We've been looking
at these objects
307
00:17:58,452 --> 00:18:00,704
primarily at the
macroscopic level‐‐
308
00:18:00,705 --> 00:18:01,913
what do they look like‐‐
309
00:18:01,914 --> 00:18:05,500
but maybe there's information
inside them,
310
00:18:05,501 --> 00:18:08,336
encoded using nanotechnology.
311
00:18:08,337 --> 00:18:10,088
Why is that likely?
312
00:18:10,089 --> 00:18:12,716
Because we ourselves
are doing the same thing.
313
00:18:12,717 --> 00:18:15,510
By trying to store information
314
00:18:15,511 --> 00:18:18,555
for thousands
or millions of years,
315
00:18:18,556 --> 00:18:24,060
you end up going to the same
physical materials and solutions
316
00:18:24,061 --> 00:18:27,272
that the hypothetical
ancient aliens may have also
317
00:18:27,273 --> 00:18:29,482
figured out how to use.
318
00:18:29,483 --> 00:18:33,695
NARRATOR:
If extraterrestrials
taught early civilizations
319
00:18:33,696 --> 00:18:35,739
how to encode data in stone,
320
00:18:35,740 --> 00:18:38,116
as ancient astronaut
theorists suggest,
321
00:18:38,117 --> 00:18:41,161
what information
were they trying to preserve?
322
00:18:41,162 --> 00:18:45,749
Perhaps further clues can
be found by examining a number
323
00:18:45,750 --> 00:18:47,334
of megalithic sculptures
324
00:18:47,335 --> 00:18:49,836
that stand in the jungles
of Honduras.
325
00:18:49,837 --> 00:18:54,591
Mysterious stone giants
depicting a divine ruler
326
00:18:54,592 --> 00:18:57,469
who could see into both the past
327
00:18:57,470 --> 00:19:00,264
and the future.
328
00:19:07,396 --> 00:19:09,356
NARRATOR:
This ancient site,
329
00:19:09,357 --> 00:19:12,442
located deep in the jungles
of the Yucatán Peninsula,
330
00:19:12,443 --> 00:19:15,403
served as one of the most
important city centers
331
00:19:15,404 --> 00:19:17,198
of the Mayan empire.
332
00:19:18,908 --> 00:19:23,495
The Maya thrived between
2000 B. C. and 900 A. D.,
333
00:19:23,496 --> 00:19:27,415
and are celebrated for having
a vast knowledge of astronomy,
334
00:19:27,416 --> 00:19:31,003
mathematics, writing,
and architecture.
335
00:19:32,713 --> 00:19:36,383
The Maya were one
of the longest lasting
336
00:19:36,384 --> 00:19:40,553
and most expansive civilizations
that our planet has ever known.
337
00:19:40,554 --> 00:19:43,890
Geographically,
they covered an area
338
00:19:43,891 --> 00:19:46,309
from the top
of the Yucatán Peninsula
339
00:19:46,310 --> 00:19:48,353
in the Caribbean
all the way down
340
00:19:48,354 --> 00:19:50,647
to the Pacific coast
of Guatemala.
341
00:19:50,648 --> 00:19:54,943
It bled into what's now today
Mexico and Honduras.
342
00:19:54,944 --> 00:19:58,988
It was thought that the
great city of Copán at one time
343
00:19:58,989 --> 00:20:01,449
covered an area, like,
ten square miles,
344
00:20:01,450 --> 00:20:03,284
something like 20,000 people.
345
00:20:03,285 --> 00:20:07,122
But sometime
in the ninth century,
346
00:20:07,123 --> 00:20:09,791
this incredible Mayan city
was abandoned,
347
00:20:09,792 --> 00:20:10,959
its people vanished,
348
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,547
and it was swallowed
by the jungle overgrowth.
349
00:20:17,925 --> 00:20:19,759
NARRATOR:
The ruins of Copán
350
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,304
include dozens of elaborately
carved stone statues,
351
00:20:23,305 --> 00:20:28,643
or stelae, depicting Copán's
semi‐divine rulers.
352
00:20:28,644 --> 00:20:30,979
These larger‐than‐life figures,
353
00:20:30,980 --> 00:20:33,148
covered with
hieroglyphic writings,
354
00:20:33,149 --> 00:20:36,025
provide an intriguing account
of how ancient cultures
355
00:20:36,026 --> 00:20:37,902
revered the heavens.
356
00:20:37,903 --> 00:20:41,656
TSOUKALOS:
Copán is a place where
357
00:20:41,657 --> 00:20:44,159
even the archeologists agree
358
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,161
that the celestial realm
359
00:20:46,162 --> 00:20:51,916
was built on Earth in order
to show as above, so below,
360
00:20:51,917 --> 00:20:56,504
and in Copán we have that
in‐between level right there
361
00:20:56,505 --> 00:21:00,593
laid out in this amazing
archeological structure.
362
00:21:06,015 --> 00:21:09,142
NARRATOR:
Ancient astronaut theorist
Giorgio Tsoukalos
363
00:21:09,143 --> 00:21:11,519
travels to Copán to meet up
364
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,939
with renowned Mayan
archaeologist David Sedat,
365
00:21:14,940 --> 00:21:17,859
who has been involved
in the excavation of the site
366
00:21:17,860 --> 00:21:20,737
for more than three decades.
367
00:21:20,738 --> 00:21:22,989
TSOUKALOS:
David, great pleasure
to meet you.
368
00:21:22,990 --> 00:21:25,200
Well, I've been
looking forward to this.
369
00:21:25,201 --> 00:21:27,911
‐I'm sure you have a lot
of things you want to see.
‐This is... Yes, I do.
370
00:21:27,912 --> 00:21:30,663
So, David,
what are we looking at here?
371
00:21:30,664 --> 00:21:33,208
Well, this is the Great Plaza.
372
00:21:33,209 --> 00:21:36,669
It's o‐over 100 meters b...
Larger than a football field.
373
00:21:36,670 --> 00:21:41,007
And, uh, it's the southern, uh,
portion of the Great Plaza
374
00:21:41,008 --> 00:21:44,677
where the majority of
the great standing stone giants
375
00:21:44,678 --> 00:21:46,596
that you've come to see
are located.
376
00:21:46,597 --> 00:21:50,475
NARRATOR:
Before examining Copán's
stone giants up close,
377
00:21:50,476 --> 00:21:53,353
Giorgio has been invited to
explore the underground tunnels
378
00:21:53,354 --> 00:21:55,815
beneath Temple 16.
379
00:21:57,858 --> 00:22:00,610
BRUCE FENTON:
Uh, watch your step
and watch your head.
380
00:22:00,611 --> 00:22:03,280
‐It's low.
‐TSOUKALOS: Oh, wow, yeah.
381
00:22:08,118 --> 00:22:10,370
Okay, wow, look
at this corbelled ceiling.
382
00:22:10,371 --> 00:22:12,539
That's unbelievable.
383
00:22:12,540 --> 00:22:16,751
NARRATOR:
It was here that archaeologists
discovered that the structure,
384
00:22:16,752 --> 00:22:20,171
believed to have
been built in 776 AD,
385
00:22:20,172 --> 00:22:24,509
completely encased an older
temple called Rosalila.
386
00:22:24,510 --> 00:22:29,013
SEDAT:
Giorgio will find
Rosalila Temple
387
00:22:29,014 --> 00:22:32,433
especially interesting
because he'll be able to see
388
00:22:32,434 --> 00:22:36,437
some of these stucco figures
right close‐up.
389
00:22:36,438 --> 00:22:38,857
And those images are going to,
390
00:22:38,858 --> 00:22:42,736
I believe,
absolutely astound him.
391
00:22:46,323 --> 00:22:47,408
Look at that.
392
00:22:50,995 --> 00:22:53,246
This is extraordinary.
393
00:22:53,247 --> 00:22:55,540
I mean, that to me,
it looks like a helmet
394
00:22:55,541 --> 00:22:58,501
and a guy with a regulator
395
00:22:58,502 --> 00:23:01,963
or a microphone
in front of his mouth.
396
00:23:01,964 --> 00:23:05,008
‐Incredible.
‐It's interpreted
397
00:23:05,009 --> 00:23:07,343
as an ancestor figure.
398
00:23:07,344 --> 00:23:10,346
TSOUKALOS:
I see an astronaut in a helmet,
399
00:23:10,347 --> 00:23:14,642
you know, rendered by someone
who has no concept
400
00:23:14,643 --> 00:23:16,769
what an astronaut is.
401
00:23:16,770 --> 00:23:19,439
No, this is truly extraordinary.
402
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,984
The Rosalila Temple
is one of countless examples
403
00:23:22,985 --> 00:23:26,279
where archeologists themselves
are saying
404
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,365
this temple was
dedicated in honor
405
00:23:29,366 --> 00:23:33,661
of the so‐called celestial gods,
the celestial beings.
406
00:23:33,662 --> 00:23:37,498
Well, the archeologists are
already speaking my language.
407
00:23:37,499 --> 00:23:40,168
The only thing
they have to change is
408
00:23:40,169 --> 00:23:44,881
change "celestial being"
to "extraterrestrials."
409
00:23:44,882 --> 00:23:48,468
NARRATOR:
On the grounds at Copán
410
00:23:48,469 --> 00:23:51,262
are 15 of what
are called stelae.
411
00:23:51,263 --> 00:23:54,474
The most well‐known of these
were built during
412
00:23:54,475 --> 00:23:59,062
the 36‐year reign of the ruler
Uaxaclajuun Ub'aah K'awiil,
413
00:23:59,063 --> 00:24:02,107
better known by the nickname
18 Rabbit.
414
00:24:04,068 --> 00:24:05,818
TSOUKALOS:
This is the first time
I'm standing
415
00:24:05,819 --> 00:24:07,320
next to one of these.
416
00:24:07,321 --> 00:24:10,031
Absolutely incredible.
417
00:24:10,032 --> 00:24:13,201
What do the glyphs say
about this particular statue
418
00:24:13,202 --> 00:24:15,203
or stela here?
419
00:24:15,204 --> 00:24:18,039
SEDAT:
This is all a representation
420
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:22,919
of the 13th ruler
who we have nicknamed 18 Rabbit.
421
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,714
And they show him
taking on the persona
422
00:24:26,715 --> 00:24:30,259
of the high god of Copán,
Juun Ajaw,
423
00:24:30,260 --> 00:24:32,095
uh, who was a sky god.
424
00:24:32,096 --> 00:24:34,597
Uh, the supreme being.
425
00:24:34,598 --> 00:24:37,850
And the motifs on his headdress
and other attributes
426
00:24:37,851 --> 00:24:40,436
show that he is a sky deity.
427
00:24:40,437 --> 00:24:45,942
This is amazing to me,
because here we have not only
428
00:24:45,943 --> 00:24:50,363
a statue depicting something,
which is a picture,
429
00:24:50,364 --> 00:24:53,324
a carved picture, but on
the sides we have writing,
430
00:24:53,325 --> 00:24:57,329
glyphs carved
that speak of a sky deity.
431
00:24:59,289 --> 00:25:02,166
Now, when I look
at something like this,
432
00:25:02,167 --> 00:25:05,795
I'm immediately reminded
of misunderstood technology.
433
00:25:05,796 --> 00:25:10,383
Because imagine if a people
who are intelligent,
434
00:25:10,384 --> 00:25:14,262
yet their technological
frame of reference,
435
00:25:14,263 --> 00:25:16,764
from 1,000 or 2,000 years ago,
436
00:25:16,765 --> 00:25:18,599
we have to admit, was primitive.
437
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,351
Not their intelligence,
438
00:25:20,352 --> 00:25:23,062
their technological
frame of reference.
439
00:25:23,063 --> 00:25:25,898
O‐Of course,
let me just add to that
440
00:25:25,899 --> 00:25:31,654
that everything shows his
connectedness, uh, of the cosmos
441
00:25:31,655 --> 00:25:36,034
and this living space of mankind
in all of its senses.
442
00:25:36,035 --> 00:25:39,871
And by the way, I have seen
that headdress right there
443
00:25:39,872 --> 00:25:41,831
elsewhere on planet Earth.
444
00:25:41,832 --> 00:25:46,210
And that is in Mesopotamia,
where you have Enki
445
00:25:46,211 --> 00:25:51,675
and the goddess Ishtar, with the
exact or similar type headdress.
446
00:25:54,636 --> 00:25:59,974
And, by the way, Enki
and Ishtar, too, were sky gods.
447
00:25:59,975 --> 00:26:05,021
So you have these references
of sky gods not just here,
448
00:26:05,022 --> 00:26:07,231
not just in Mesopotamia,
449
00:26:07,232 --> 00:26:13,071
but in each and every ancient
culture regardless of continent.
450
00:26:13,072 --> 00:26:18,576
So the fact that we have
these examples worldwide
451
00:26:18,577 --> 00:26:22,789
leads me to think that it was a
flesh and blood extraterrestrial
452
00:26:22,790 --> 00:26:27,668
whom our ancestors
misinterpreted as being God.
453
00:26:27,669 --> 00:26:30,296
Why? Because they came
from the sky.
454
00:26:30,297 --> 00:26:33,132
Arthur C. Clarke said it best
when he said,
455
00:26:33,133 --> 00:26:36,552
"Any sufficiently
advanced technology
456
00:26:36,553 --> 00:26:39,639
is indistinguishable
from magic."
457
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,810
Imagine showing
your great‐great‐grandfather
458
00:26:43,811 --> 00:26:46,312
‐your smartphone.
‐Right. That's right. (laughs)
459
00:26:46,313 --> 00:26:49,649
All of a sudden, you've become
a magician, a wizard.
460
00:26:49,650 --> 00:26:53,361
When we, uh,
talk about technology,
461
00:26:53,362 --> 00:26:56,364
I imagine someday in the future,
462
00:26:56,365 --> 00:27:01,035
that the technology will be such
that we'll be able to scan
463
00:27:01,036 --> 00:27:06,582
this, uh, stela here,
and we see the resonances
464
00:27:06,583 --> 00:27:10,837
that are inside the crystalline
structure of the stone.
465
00:27:10,838 --> 00:27:15,092
In other words, that these were
great, uh, memory chip banks.
466
00:27:17,553 --> 00:27:20,805
NARRATOR:
Great memory chip banks?
467
00:27:20,806 --> 00:27:25,935
For Giorgio, the fact that David
Sedat, a renowned archaeologist
468
00:27:25,936 --> 00:27:28,229
and one of the foremost
authorities on Copán,
469
00:27:28,230 --> 00:27:31,691
is of the opinion
that these stone giants could be
470
00:27:31,692 --> 00:27:34,402
storing information
about the ancient world
471
00:27:34,403 --> 00:27:36,654
is an astounding revelation.
472
00:27:36,655 --> 00:27:39,740
But perhaps even more
extraordinary is the next figure
473
00:27:39,741 --> 00:27:43,203
David Sedat plans to show him.
474
00:27:52,087 --> 00:27:54,046
NARRATOR: While exploring
the ruins of Copán
475
00:27:54,047 --> 00:27:57,466
with renowned Mayan
archaeologist David Sedat,
476
00:27:57,467 --> 00:28:00,678
ancient astronaut theorist
Giorgio Tsoukalos
477
00:28:00,679 --> 00:28:03,306
has just been treated
to an astounding theory
478
00:28:03,307 --> 00:28:07,351
concerning the megalithic stone
giants that dot the landscape.
479
00:28:07,352 --> 00:28:11,856
These were great
memory chip banks.
480
00:28:11,857 --> 00:28:13,733
TSOUKALOS:
Wow.
481
00:28:13,734 --> 00:28:16,903
‐Okay.
‐And in the appropriate,
uh, algorithm,
482
00:28:16,904 --> 00:28:20,531
we could peel back
into time by hearing
483
00:28:20,532 --> 00:28:23,409
the sights and sounds
and everything that happened
484
00:28:23,410 --> 00:28:25,453
in this sacred space
485
00:28:25,454 --> 00:28:28,956
and maybe answer some of the
questions that you were posing.
486
00:28:28,957 --> 00:28:30,374
Thank you for that.
487
00:28:30,375 --> 00:28:32,501
Uh, I appreciate that very much.
488
00:28:32,502 --> 00:28:36,589
NARRATOR:
Is it possible that these Mayan
stone giants were designed
489
00:28:36,590 --> 00:28:41,385
in such a way as to be able to
digitally store valuable data,
490
00:28:41,386 --> 00:28:45,806
much like today's
so‐called Superman crystals?
491
00:28:45,807 --> 00:28:49,644
Every single thing we do‐‐
using a phone, using a laptop‐‐
492
00:28:49,645 --> 00:28:51,355
that all creates little data.
493
00:28:52,648 --> 00:28:55,107
We're even creating data
passively.
494
00:28:55,108 --> 00:28:58,569
We have microphones and multiple
cameras in all our devices.
495
00:28:58,570 --> 00:29:00,905
We don't know when something
might be picked up
496
00:29:00,906 --> 00:29:02,365
and stored to a server.
497
00:29:02,366 --> 00:29:04,784
Or when you AirDrop
something to somebody.
498
00:29:04,785 --> 00:29:07,828
Using Bluetooth
and cloud‐based storage,
499
00:29:07,829 --> 00:29:10,081
we're transferring data
to each other, and something
500
00:29:10,082 --> 00:29:13,292
could be picking up this
massive wealth of information
501
00:29:13,293 --> 00:29:15,419
and storing that data somewhere.
502
00:29:15,420 --> 00:29:19,840
SPIVACK:
We've learned a lot about how
ancient civilizations understood
503
00:29:19,841 --> 00:29:22,426
our solar system
and their world.
504
00:29:22,427 --> 00:29:25,429
These civilizations had advanced
technologies for working
505
00:29:25,430 --> 00:29:28,265
with stone and metal
and, in some cases, crystals.
506
00:29:28,266 --> 00:29:31,560
We still don't know
how they did what they did.
507
00:29:31,561 --> 00:29:34,689
It's reasonable that,
given these monuments exist,
508
00:29:34,690 --> 00:29:38,526
that we should analyze them
to see if there's other layers
509
00:29:38,527 --> 00:29:40,987
of information encoded in them.
510
00:29:40,988 --> 00:29:45,700
CHILDRESS: If these statues
were, in fact, devices
511
00:29:45,701 --> 00:29:48,786
that had recorded information,
512
00:29:48,787 --> 00:29:52,289
you wonder if we have, also,
513
00:29:52,290 --> 00:29:54,875
some evidence here
from the statues of Copán
514
00:29:54,876 --> 00:29:59,256
that extraterrestrials
are coming to this planet.
515
00:30:01,258 --> 00:30:05,011
NARRATOR: Could the ancient
stone giants of Copán,
516
00:30:05,012 --> 00:30:06,804
like hundreds
of other stone monoliths
517
00:30:06,805 --> 00:30:09,140
found all across the globe,
518
00:30:09,141 --> 00:30:11,559
really be encoded
with precious information
519
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,061
about the ancient world?
520
00:30:14,062 --> 00:30:15,896
And, if so,
521
00:30:15,897 --> 00:30:19,984
might they also hold evidence
of extraterrestrial contact?
522
00:30:19,985 --> 00:30:24,363
As far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,
523
00:30:24,364 --> 00:30:27,533
the answer is a profound yes.
524
00:30:27,534 --> 00:30:29,493
And to prove their point,
525
00:30:29,494 --> 00:30:32,246
they believe that one
of the keys can be found
526
00:30:32,247 --> 00:30:34,665
by examining
the elaborate carvings located
527
00:30:34,666 --> 00:30:38,669
on what is referred to
as Stela C.
528
00:30:38,670 --> 00:30:43,425
The same one that David Sedat
considers the most incredible.
529
00:30:45,093 --> 00:30:49,847
The inscription on this side
starts a 20‐year period,
530
00:30:49,848 --> 00:30:52,976
equivalent to December five
of 711.
531
00:30:54,519 --> 00:30:56,562
And midnight on that night,
532
00:30:56,563 --> 00:31:00,232
the Milky Way was standing
precisely straight up
533
00:31:00,233 --> 00:31:02,068
in the tropical sky here.
534
00:31:02,069 --> 00:31:04,695
The text goes on to say
535
00:31:04,696 --> 00:31:09,658
that this also happened
4,600 years before.
536
00:31:09,659 --> 00:31:13,996
And there is strong implication
that he was as well,
537
00:31:13,997 --> 00:31:19,418
like on that night,
witnessing this celestial event.
538
00:31:19,419 --> 00:31:23,005
NARRATOR:
Witnessing the event?
539
00:31:23,006 --> 00:31:26,217
Is it possible that the ruler
depicted on the stela,
540
00:31:26,218 --> 00:31:28,052
known as 18 Rabbit,
541
00:31:28,053 --> 00:31:31,639
was able to observe
an astronomical event
542
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:35,560
that occurred more than
4,000 years before his time?
543
00:31:37,896 --> 00:31:39,563
Let me show you
how the narrative
544
00:31:39,564 --> 00:31:41,107
picks up on the other side.
545
00:31:41,108 --> 00:31:43,401
All right, let's check it out.
546
00:31:46,780 --> 00:31:50,074
So now, here,
this guy has a beard.
547
00:31:50,075 --> 00:31:52,743
Well, yes, this is,
uh, still 18 Rabbit,
548
00:31:52,744 --> 00:31:56,205
but he's achieved great age,
great wisdom.
549
00:31:56,206 --> 00:32:00,084
Telling us that he is witnessing
this astronomical conjunction
550
00:32:00,085 --> 00:32:03,254
of the Milky Way
two million years ago.
551
00:32:03,255 --> 00:32:04,922
Two million years ago?
552
00:32:04,923 --> 00:32:06,173
‐Two million years ago.
‐So this stela here...
553
00:32:06,174 --> 00:32:07,424
And he witnessed it.
554
00:32:07,425 --> 00:32:11,887
Now, he witnesses this
astronomical conjunction
555
00:32:11,888 --> 00:32:16,976
of the Milky Way
two million years in the future.
556
00:32:16,977 --> 00:32:19,311
‐As well?
‐As well.
557
00:32:19,312 --> 00:32:21,564
‐That's extraordinary.
‐So these stones
558
00:32:21,565 --> 00:32:26,152
have to be seen
as the supernatural personas
559
00:32:26,153 --> 00:32:27,486
that can travel in time
560
00:32:27,487 --> 00:32:32,242
simultaneously
backwards and forwards.
561
00:32:34,286 --> 00:32:35,704
You've just blown my mind.
562
00:32:36,663 --> 00:32:39,206
NARRATOR:
Supernatural personas,
563
00:32:39,207 --> 00:32:41,125
that can travel through time?
564
00:32:41,126 --> 00:32:44,587
If the statues of Copán
were really created
565
00:32:44,588 --> 00:32:47,381
as a means of storing
valuable ancient knowledge,
566
00:32:47,382 --> 00:32:52,595
as ancient astronaut theorists
suggest, then how, and why,
567
00:32:52,596 --> 00:32:55,222
did that knowledge
come to be lost,
568
00:32:55,223 --> 00:32:59,768
along with the keys needed
to unlock their secrets?
569
00:32:59,769 --> 00:33:02,146
Perhaps further clues
can be found
570
00:33:02,147 --> 00:33:05,399
by examining a number of other
stone giants
571
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,154
that were mysteriously buried
deep underground.
572
00:33:20,373 --> 00:33:23,459
NARRATOR:
45 miles from Mexico City.
573
00:33:23,460 --> 00:33:26,795
Standing guard atop
a 30‐foot tall pyramid
574
00:33:26,796 --> 00:33:29,965
dedicated to the feathered
serpent god Quetzalcoatl
575
00:33:29,966 --> 00:33:32,301
are four imposing
warrior figures,
576
00:33:32,302 --> 00:33:35,596
each over 13 feet tall.
577
00:33:35,597 --> 00:33:38,349
The city's main temple
is called
578
00:33:38,350 --> 00:33:40,017
the Temple of Quetzalcoatl.
579
00:33:40,018 --> 00:33:45,439
On top of it stand
four very large columns
580
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,192
in the form of warriors.
581
00:33:48,902 --> 00:33:51,153
Archeologists have attributed
the figures
582
00:33:51,154 --> 00:33:54,365
to the Toltec civilization
that preceded the Aztec
583
00:33:54,366 --> 00:33:58,411
and occupied the region
around 750 A. D.
584
00:33:59,955 --> 00:34:03,624
Like the Olmec heads of Mexico
and the Monte Alto statues
585
00:34:03,625 --> 00:34:06,335
of Guatemala, they are carved
out of basalt,
586
00:34:06,336 --> 00:34:10,172
and weigh
eight and a half tons each.
587
00:34:10,173 --> 00:34:13,008
FENTON:
These giant statues of Tula‐‐
588
00:34:13,009 --> 00:34:14,677
they had a range
of odd features,
589
00:34:14,678 --> 00:34:16,804
but particularly notable
are the‐the fact
590
00:34:16,805 --> 00:34:18,223
that some of them
have three fingers.
591
00:34:21,685 --> 00:34:23,227
It's as if these guys
592
00:34:23,228 --> 00:34:26,731
are standing inside
some pressurized suits‐‐
593
00:34:29,192 --> 00:34:33,279
they have these packs
on their chest,
594
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,489
they have helmets on
595
00:34:35,490 --> 00:34:38,909
and they have
what seem to be headsets.
596
00:34:38,910 --> 00:34:42,830
NARRATOR:
While mainstream archeologists
identify the statues
597
00:34:42,831 --> 00:34:44,331
as Toltec warriors,
598
00:34:44,332 --> 00:34:47,918
their actual identity
is unknown.
599
00:34:47,919 --> 00:34:50,421
There is, in fact,
no way of identifying
600
00:34:50,422 --> 00:34:52,089
exactly who sculpted them,
601
00:34:52,090 --> 00:34:53,465
when they were sculpted
602
00:34:53,466 --> 00:34:56,343
or for what purpose.
603
00:34:56,344 --> 00:34:59,805
Also curious is the fact
that they were not found
604
00:34:59,806 --> 00:35:01,390
where they stand now.
605
00:35:01,391 --> 00:35:04,852
They were found
deep beneath the earth, as if
606
00:35:04,853 --> 00:35:07,062
deliberately buried.
607
00:35:07,063 --> 00:35:11,567
At Tula, they purposely
buried these statues.
608
00:35:11,568 --> 00:35:15,613
And that would be
to remove the power
609
00:35:15,614 --> 00:35:18,324
that was also associated
with them.
610
00:35:18,325 --> 00:35:21,535
VIEIRA:
You find many statues
around the world
611
00:35:21,536 --> 00:35:24,204
where it's purposeful vandalism,
612
00:35:24,205 --> 00:35:27,082
because the belief is
you disempower the statue.
613
00:35:27,083 --> 00:35:30,544
It seems like superstition,
but it seems like the ancients,
614
00:35:30,545 --> 00:35:32,463
uh, really understood
a lot of concepts
615
00:35:32,464 --> 00:35:34,048
that we really don't get.
616
00:35:34,049 --> 00:35:37,217
CHILDRESS:
The famous statues
on Easter Island
617
00:35:37,218 --> 00:35:40,721
were said to be alive
and to have a power in them.
618
00:35:40,722 --> 00:35:45,142
But eventually, there was
a revolution on Easter Island.
619
00:35:45,143 --> 00:35:48,104
And they had to
kill the statues.
620
00:35:50,231 --> 00:35:53,359
They would snap the neck
of the statue.
621
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,152
What archeologists
have done today
622
00:35:55,153 --> 00:35:58,322
is re‐erected them on platforms,
put the heads back on.
623
00:35:58,323 --> 00:36:03,160
Did these statues actually
have some energy or power
624
00:36:03,161 --> 00:36:06,955
that the people were aware of,
and influenced people as well?
625
00:36:06,956 --> 00:36:09,500
NARRATOR:
Is it possible that information
626
00:36:09,501 --> 00:36:12,753
stored within the world's
ancient stone giants
627
00:36:12,754 --> 00:36:14,588
or the energy they contained
628
00:36:14,589 --> 00:36:18,509
was considered so powerful
and so dangerous
629
00:36:18,510 --> 00:36:21,887
that they had to be buried
or deliberately destroyed?
630
00:36:21,888 --> 00:36:25,057
Perhaps further clues
can be found
631
00:36:25,058 --> 00:36:27,434
by examining exactly where
632
00:36:27,435 --> 00:36:31,480
many of these quartz‐filled
monoliths are located.
633
00:36:31,481 --> 00:36:35,776
One thing that we consistently
see all around the world is that
634
00:36:35,777 --> 00:36:38,278
ancient sites are built
635
00:36:38,279 --> 00:36:41,198
on even more ancient sites.
636
00:36:41,199 --> 00:36:43,742
And why
are these spots special?
637
00:36:43,743 --> 00:36:46,286
They have power in them.
638
00:36:46,287 --> 00:36:49,373
They're part
of this grid network.
639
00:36:49,374 --> 00:36:53,794
And they placed giant statues
at these nodal places,
640
00:36:53,795 --> 00:36:58,006
and people associated
these statues
641
00:36:58,007 --> 00:37:01,720
as having an energy
that came out of them.
642
00:37:03,513 --> 00:37:06,890
NARRATOR:
In 1972, Ivan T. Sanderson,
643
00:37:06,891 --> 00:37:08,767
a world mysteries author,
644
00:37:08,768 --> 00:37:11,520
noted a distinct pattern
that emerged
645
00:37:11,521 --> 00:37:12,855
when he plotted locations
646
00:37:12,856 --> 00:37:16,817
known for strange
magnetic disturbances on a map.
647
00:37:16,818 --> 00:37:19,987
His list‐‐ which included
the Bermuda Triangle,
648
00:37:19,988 --> 00:37:23,699
the Devil's Sea, south of Japan,
649
00:37:23,700 --> 00:37:26,702
and Easter Island‐‐
650
00:37:26,703 --> 00:37:31,124
fell in a distinct formation
that circled the globe.
651
00:37:33,084 --> 00:37:36,086
Other investigators have since
elaborated on his work,
652
00:37:36,087 --> 00:37:39,256
and mapped their own
intricate worldwide grids
653
00:37:39,257 --> 00:37:41,008
based on sacred structures
654
00:37:41,009 --> 00:37:44,595
and electromagnetically charged
regions of the Earth.
655
00:37:44,596 --> 00:37:46,847
HENRY:
Places like Machu Picchu,
656
00:37:46,848 --> 00:37:49,516
the Great Pyramid,
Kailasa Temple in India,
657
00:37:49,517 --> 00:37:51,685
are all considered to be
nodal points
658
00:37:51,686 --> 00:37:52,895
on the world grid.
659
00:37:52,896 --> 00:37:54,563
And what happened
in the ancient world
660
00:37:54,564 --> 00:37:55,731
is that they would build
661
00:37:55,732 --> 00:37:58,901
stone giants
where they could tune into
662
00:37:58,902 --> 00:38:01,028
this cosmic energy.
663
00:38:01,029 --> 00:38:04,448
The world grid is actually seen
as an interdimensional doorway.
664
00:38:04,449 --> 00:38:05,866
That these places
665
00:38:05,867 --> 00:38:10,497
are seen as portals or gateways
into other star systems.
666
00:38:12,582 --> 00:38:15,918
NARRATOR:
Is it possible that some
highly‐advanced civilization
667
00:38:15,919 --> 00:38:18,670
was responsible
for teaching early man
668
00:38:18,671 --> 00:38:22,341
not only how to manufacture
megalithic stone giants
669
00:38:22,342 --> 00:38:26,929
but what type of material
to use and where to place them?
670
00:38:26,930 --> 00:38:31,225
And, if so, were they positioned
to draw energy from the Earth
671
00:38:31,226 --> 00:38:33,977
simply to power memory drives
672
00:38:33,978 --> 00:38:35,687
or could they
have served another,
673
00:38:35,688 --> 00:38:38,232
even more profound purpose?
674
00:38:38,233 --> 00:38:42,236
One that allowed them
to transmit not just data
675
00:38:42,237 --> 00:38:45,615
but the extraterrestrials
themselves?
676
00:38:49,994 --> 00:38:53,038
43,000 miles above the Earth
677
00:38:53,039 --> 00:38:55,749
four Magnetospheric
Multiscale spacecraft
678
00:38:55,750 --> 00:39:00,587
fly in formation through
the Earth's magnetic boundaries.
679
00:39:00,588 --> 00:39:04,007
Their mission is to record data
related to x‐points
680
00:39:04,008 --> 00:39:07,010
where the magnetic field
of the Earth
681
00:39:07,011 --> 00:39:08,720
and that of the Sun
briefly merge,
682
00:39:08,721 --> 00:39:11,390
forming an uninterrupted portal
683
00:39:11,391 --> 00:39:13,393
from the Earth to the Sun.
684
00:39:15,353 --> 00:39:17,354
There are studies
that are underway right now
685
00:39:17,355 --> 00:39:20,941
to determine where and why
these portals open.
686
00:39:20,942 --> 00:39:24,361
One could easily connect this
to the ancient belief
687
00:39:24,362 --> 00:39:27,531
that there are portals
that bring cosmic energy
688
00:39:27,532 --> 00:39:29,533
to the Earth
and that the stone statues
689
00:39:29,534 --> 00:39:32,286
become vessels
of this cosmic energy.
690
00:39:32,287 --> 00:39:36,373
Maybe the stone giants
are the x‐portals themselves,
691
00:39:36,374 --> 00:39:38,876
where humans can connect
with extraterrestrials
692
00:39:38,877 --> 00:39:40,419
in an energetic way
693
00:39:40,420 --> 00:39:43,380
and possibly even
travel there, physically,
694
00:39:43,381 --> 00:39:46,049
to other civilizations,
through these portals.
695
00:39:46,050 --> 00:39:50,220
NARRATOR:
Portals? Is it possible
that the stone giants
696
00:39:50,221 --> 00:39:53,807
served as
interdimensional gateways,
697
00:39:53,808 --> 00:39:56,560
allowing not only data
to be transmitted and received,
698
00:39:56,561 --> 00:40:00,815
but also extraterrestrial
life forms?
699
00:40:03,610 --> 00:40:05,235
JASON MARTELL:
The idea that these statues
700
00:40:05,236 --> 00:40:07,654
were buried
raises the question as to
701
00:40:07,655 --> 00:40:09,364
should they have been
left buried?
702
00:40:09,365 --> 00:40:12,326
If they were conveying
extraterrestrials,
703
00:40:12,327 --> 00:40:15,037
have we potentially
reactivated them
704
00:40:15,038 --> 00:40:16,413
by unburying them
and putting them
705
00:40:16,414 --> 00:40:18,248
in their original locations?
706
00:40:18,249 --> 00:40:21,877
HENRY:
The stone giants that we see
scattered around the planet
707
00:40:21,878 --> 00:40:24,421
represent a profound
cosmic truth
708
00:40:24,422 --> 00:40:26,632
that is that we once
were connected
709
00:40:26,633 --> 00:40:27,966
with the divine beings
710
00:40:27,967 --> 00:40:29,593
or the celestial beings,
711
00:40:29,594 --> 00:40:31,762
and we've lost that connection.
712
00:40:31,763 --> 00:40:34,598
So by replacing
those stone giants
713
00:40:34,599 --> 00:40:35,766
or recovering them,
714
00:40:35,767 --> 00:40:38,101
we're actually
reconnecting ourselves
715
00:40:38,102 --> 00:40:40,604
with these divine beings,
with celestial beings,
716
00:40:40,605 --> 00:40:42,899
through these stone statues.
717
00:40:45,777 --> 00:40:49,446
CHILDRESS:
If we were able to completely
understand this system,
718
00:40:49,447 --> 00:40:52,950
a system which is apparently
not completely functioning
719
00:40:52,951 --> 00:40:57,829
right now, and by rebuilding
some of the giant statues
720
00:40:57,830 --> 00:41:01,041
at certain places
on this world grid,
721
00:41:01,042 --> 00:41:03,961
we might be able to reconstruct
that worldwide system
722
00:41:03,962 --> 00:41:05,796
that was in place.
723
00:41:05,797 --> 00:41:08,882
And quite possibly
put by extraterrestrials.
724
00:41:08,883 --> 00:41:12,302
In some ways, I think
we're doing that right now,
725
00:41:12,303 --> 00:41:14,137
slowly, bit by bit.
726
00:41:14,138 --> 00:41:18,308
NARRATOR:
The statues of Abu Simbel
in Egypt.
727
00:41:18,309 --> 00:41:21,895
The stelae of Copán in Honduras.
728
00:41:21,896 --> 00:41:24,815
The Olmec heads of Mexico.
729
00:41:24,816 --> 00:41:27,484
The moai of Easter Island.
730
00:41:27,485 --> 00:41:30,362
All were found
either buried or broken,
731
00:41:30,363 --> 00:41:32,990
but since then
have been restored
732
00:41:32,991 --> 00:41:35,450
to their original placements.
733
00:41:35,451 --> 00:41:37,995
If the stone giants
of the ancient world
734
00:41:37,996 --> 00:41:40,163
really did function as portals
735
00:41:40,164 --> 00:41:43,041
for otherworldly beings
to travel to Earth,
736
00:41:43,042 --> 00:41:46,670
could we have unwittingly
opened a Pandora's box‐‐
737
00:41:46,671 --> 00:41:50,048
one that our ancestors
went to great lengths to close?
738
00:41:50,049 --> 00:41:52,718
If true, perhaps
the signals stored
739
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:56,847
within the world's stone giants
have already been transmitted
740
00:41:56,848 --> 00:41:59,182
and received.
741
00:41:59,183 --> 00:42:01,852
Communication has already begun.
742
00:42:01,853 --> 00:42:06,065
And the time of contact
is sooner than we think.
743
