1
00:00:01,567 --> 00:00:03,851
Sunken continents
said to have once been home
2
00:00:03,875 --> 00:00:06,708
to advanced civilizations.
3
00:00:06,792 --> 00:00:08,833
An ancient shipwreck
4
00:00:08,917 --> 00:00:12,375
containing what might
be evidence of Atlantis.
5
00:00:12,458 --> 00:00:16,667
And unidentified
submersible objects
6
00:00:16,750 --> 00:00:19,000
moving through our oceans.
7
00:00:19,125 --> 00:00:21,417
For more than a
decade, Ancient Aliens
8
00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:24,042
has traveled the
globe to investigate
9
00:00:24,125 --> 00:00:26,208
some of the most
puzzling discoveries
10
00:00:26,292 --> 00:00:28,500
made in the depths
of our oceans.
11
00:00:28,583 --> 00:00:30,458
Now we're exploring
12
00:00:30,542 --> 00:00:33,208
the top ten
mysteries of the deep
13
00:00:33,292 --> 00:00:34,667
that just may hold the proof
14
00:00:34,750 --> 00:00:39,417
that Earth has been
visited by extraterrestrials.
15
00:00:46,292 --> 00:00:50,375
The ocean is the most
mysterious place on Earth.
16
00:00:50,458 --> 00:00:53,417
It covers 70% of our planet,
17
00:00:53,542 --> 00:00:57,167
but less than 10% of
it has been explored.
18
00:00:57,208 --> 00:01:00,333
In fact, we know more
about the surface of Mars
19
00:01:00,458 --> 00:01:04,167
than we do about the
bottom of our own oceans.
20
00:01:04,292 --> 00:01:06,874
But what we have
discovered in the depths
21
00:01:06,875 --> 00:01:09,292
is a treasure trove of evidence
22
00:01:09,375 --> 00:01:11,624
for the ancient
astronaut theory.
23
00:01:11,625 --> 00:01:14,417
Like an incredible
underwater formation
24
00:01:14,542 --> 00:01:18,417
that was found off the
coast of Japan in the 1980s.
25
00:01:19,417 --> 00:01:21,333
Number ten on our countdown
26
00:01:21,458 --> 00:01:23,958
of the top ten
mysteries of the deep:
27
00:01:24,042 --> 00:01:26,292
The Yonaguni Monument.
28
00:01:28,208 --> 00:01:29,667
In the Pacific Ocean,
29
00:01:29,750 --> 00:01:33,125
at the westernmost tip of
the Japanese archipelago,
30
00:01:33,208 --> 00:01:37,000
lies the small
island of Yonaguni.
31
00:01:37,083 --> 00:01:41,042
In 1987, in nearby waters,
32
00:01:41,125 --> 00:01:44,250
dive tour operator
Kihachiro Aratake
33
00:01:44,375 --> 00:01:46,792
made a shocking discovery.
34
00:01:46,875 --> 00:01:50,749
He found a massive
complex of stone formations
35
00:01:50,750 --> 00:01:55,167
that lay hidden a mere 60 feet
beneath the ocean's surface.
36
00:01:56,375 --> 00:01:59,292
It's an
absolutely incredible structure.
37
00:01:59,375 --> 00:02:02,250
It looks like a giant staircase.
38
00:02:02,333 --> 00:02:06,833
There are steps in the
bedrock with terraces.
39
00:02:08,208 --> 00:02:12,042
The symmetry and the
regularity that people see on it
40
00:02:12,167 --> 00:02:14,042
just makes a
astounding impression.
41
00:02:15,167 --> 00:02:20,208
It looks like a
huge, multifaceted pyramid platform
42
00:02:20,292 --> 00:02:22,250
that stretches over a huge area
43
00:02:22,333 --> 00:02:24,583
with all these
details carved into it.
44
00:02:24,667 --> 00:02:29,125
There's areas where monoliths
were said to have been standing.
45
00:02:29,208 --> 00:02:33,333
There's even dolmens,
or large slabs like lintels
46
00:02:33,417 --> 00:02:38,250
covering areas and creating
doorways and other features.
47
00:02:38,333 --> 00:02:41,375
Although
some researchers suggest
48
00:02:41,458 --> 00:02:43,458
that the so-called
Yonaguni Monument
49
00:02:43,542 --> 00:02:45,583
is simply a rock formation,
50
00:02:45,667 --> 00:02:49,333
many experts, including
Japanese archeologist
51
00:02:49,417 --> 00:02:52,292
Masaaki Kimura,
have come to believe
52
00:02:52,375 --> 00:02:54,250
it is an artificial structure
53
00:02:54,333 --> 00:02:57,208
that was built in
the distant past.
54
00:02:58,625 --> 00:03:00,250
There are several reasons why
55
00:03:00,375 --> 00:03:02,792
I think this is not
a natural formation.
56
00:03:05,208 --> 00:03:08,125
A number of tools and
numerous engraved stones
57
00:03:08,208 --> 00:03:10,292
were found at the site.
58
00:03:10,375 --> 00:03:13,875
Because of these things,
there is no doubt to me
59
00:03:13,958 --> 00:03:16,292
that this was made artificially.
60
00:03:18,875 --> 00:03:21,833
There are all
these different cuts that seem to be
61
00:03:21,917 --> 00:03:26,250
of artificial origin and
not of a natural origin...
62
00:03:27,208 --> 00:03:31,167
because it's too precise.
63
00:03:32,542 --> 00:03:37,125
Was Yonaguni
artificially altered at a time
64
00:03:37,208 --> 00:03:40,542
when the water levels of
the oceans were lower?
65
00:03:41,625 --> 00:03:43,916
We know that this
happened at some point
66
00:03:43,917 --> 00:03:47,667
during the last ice age,
which was 14,000 years ago.
67
00:03:49,250 --> 00:03:51,791
Could this
massive underwater structure
68
00:03:51,792 --> 00:03:55,833
really be the remnants
of an advanced civilization
69
00:03:55,958 --> 00:03:59,875
that existed here on Earth
more than 10,000 years ago?
70
00:04:01,125 --> 00:04:03,708
And if so, who built it?
71
00:04:03,792 --> 00:04:06,499
The Yonaguni
Monument is particularly interesting
72
00:04:06,500 --> 00:04:08,416
because some of the
reports suggest that
73
00:04:08,417 --> 00:04:10,500
this was built 20,000 years ago.
74
00:04:10,542 --> 00:04:13,208
So the question
is how was it built
75
00:04:13,292 --> 00:04:15,583
with this limited
ability of these people
76
00:04:15,708 --> 00:04:18,250
that were known to
have exist in that time?
77
00:04:18,333 --> 00:04:21,208
If they had
extraterrestrial help,
78
00:04:21,333 --> 00:04:24,708
it would solve a lot of problems
79
00:04:24,792 --> 00:04:27,542
in trying to understand
how a civilization
80
00:04:27,667 --> 00:04:31,833
could mount such a
daunting enterprise
81
00:04:31,875 --> 00:04:36,000
without what we see are
the necessary skills to do so.
82
00:04:36,125 --> 00:04:40,167
Was Yonaguni
built thousands of years ago
83
00:04:40,250 --> 00:04:44,000
with the help of
extraterrestrial beings?
84
00:04:44,083 --> 00:04:46,333
Perhaps clues
about its construction
85
00:04:46,458 --> 00:04:50,625
can be found in the mythology
of Japan's royal family.
86
00:04:50,708 --> 00:04:53,083
It was said in ancient Japan,
87
00:04:53,167 --> 00:04:57,375
that the dragon god lived
at the bottom of the ocean.
88
00:04:57,458 --> 00:05:00,000
His daughter had a daughter,
89
00:05:00,042 --> 00:05:03,875
and her child was Jimmu,
the first emperor of Japan.
90
00:05:05,167 --> 00:05:07,333
To be descended from a dragon
91
00:05:07,375 --> 00:05:11,875
is to be from the divine
dimension of nature,
92
00:05:11,958 --> 00:05:14,625
but also from the stars.
93
00:05:17,042 --> 00:05:22,250
When these underwater
structures of Yonaguni were found,
94
00:05:22,375 --> 00:05:25,833
the Japanese became thrilled.
95
00:05:25,917 --> 00:05:30,708
They believed that
evidence for extraterrestrials
96
00:05:30,792 --> 00:05:33,542
was right there
in southern Japan.
97
00:05:37,500 --> 00:05:42,083
To me, the Yonaguni Monument
presents clear evidence
98
00:05:42,167 --> 00:05:45,375
that an advanced
society existed on Earth
99
00:05:45,500 --> 00:05:48,667
long before our
earliest recorded history.
100
00:05:48,750 --> 00:05:51,583
And, in fact, numerous
ancient cultures
101
00:05:51,667 --> 00:05:55,917
around the world tell similar
stories of lost civilizations,
102
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,333
including one that ended up
submerged beneath the sea.
103
00:06:00,458 --> 00:06:02,625
Number nine on our countdown
104
00:06:02,708 --> 00:06:05,292
of the top ten
mysteries of the deep:
105
00:06:05,375 --> 00:06:08,333
The Lost Continent of Mu.
106
00:06:09,500 --> 00:06:11,667
The Pacific Ocean.
107
00:06:11,708 --> 00:06:15,250
This body of water is
the largest on Earth,
108
00:06:15,333 --> 00:06:19,042
covering more than
63 million square miles.
109
00:06:19,125 --> 00:06:21,458
Curiously, many ancient peoples
110
00:06:21,542 --> 00:06:23,417
living throughout
this vast expanse
111
00:06:23,542 --> 00:06:25,333
share the same story
112
00:06:25,417 --> 00:06:28,458
of a long-lost
sunken civilization
113
00:06:28,542 --> 00:06:32,333
often referred to
as Lemuria, or Mu.
114
00:06:33,417 --> 00:06:36,167
Mu was this huge continent
115
00:06:36,208 --> 00:06:38,625
that supposedly existed
116
00:06:38,708 --> 00:06:40,958
from Hawaii in the north,
117
00:06:41,042 --> 00:06:44,500
down to Easter
Island in the southeast,
118
00:06:44,583 --> 00:06:48,375
right the way across to
Micronesia in the west.
119
00:06:48,458 --> 00:06:52,083
It thrived perhaps
50,000 years ago,
120
00:06:52,208 --> 00:06:55,333
and was sunk beneath the waves,
121
00:06:55,417 --> 00:06:59,583
possibly at the end
of the last ice age.
122
00:06:59,667 --> 00:07:03,125
Among the many
legends expressed by Polynesians
123
00:07:03,208 --> 00:07:04,667
and native Hawaiians,
124
00:07:04,708 --> 00:07:07,333
one is that the
lost continent of Mu
125
00:07:07,375 --> 00:07:10,792
was home to visitors
from the Pleiades.
126
00:07:11,833 --> 00:07:13,792
We have all kind of
connection with the Pleiades,
127
00:07:13,875 --> 00:07:15,309
but we call it,
ka po'e o ka lani,
128
00:07:15,333 --> 00:07:16,413
"the people of the heaven."
129
00:07:31,458 --> 00:07:34,000
The Hawaiians
believed that the Hawaiian Islands
130
00:07:34,083 --> 00:07:37,167
were originally part of Mu,
131
00:07:37,292 --> 00:07:38,434
and the belief is
that the Pleiadeans
132
00:07:38,458 --> 00:07:39,958
were the original
settlers of Mu.
133
00:07:41,333 --> 00:07:43,125
While most mainstream scholars
134
00:07:43,208 --> 00:07:45,374
dismiss the stories of Mu
135
00:07:45,375 --> 00:07:47,750
as being little more
than a fanciful myth,
136
00:07:47,833 --> 00:07:52,250
ancient astronaut theorists
claim that remnants of Mu
137
00:07:52,333 --> 00:07:53,708
can still be found today
138
00:07:53,792 --> 00:07:56,958
in the mysterious
ruins of Nan Madol.
139
00:07:59,167 --> 00:08:02,625
Nan Madol is a huge basalt city
140
00:08:02,708 --> 00:08:04,667
that sits on the edge
141
00:08:04,708 --> 00:08:06,333
of the island of Pohnpei
142
00:08:06,417 --> 00:08:09,792
in Micronesia in
the Pacific Ocean.
143
00:08:09,875 --> 00:08:12,833
It's made up of
hundreds of thousands,
144
00:08:12,958 --> 00:08:16,917
potentially millions, of
these huge basalt columns,
145
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,583
and much of the site
146
00:08:18,667 --> 00:08:20,333
is still submerged in the water,
147
00:08:20,417 --> 00:08:22,167
suggesting it must
have been built
148
00:08:22,208 --> 00:08:24,042
many thousands of years ago.
149
00:08:25,208 --> 00:08:28,542
Some people actually
suggested that maybe Nan Madol
150
00:08:28,625 --> 00:08:31,167
was the last remnant of Mu
151
00:08:31,250 --> 00:08:32,792
that was still above water,
152
00:08:32,875 --> 00:08:35,708
and it was simply indicative
153
00:08:35,792 --> 00:08:38,875
of what had sunk
beneath the waves
154
00:08:38,958 --> 00:08:42,000
from this advanced civilization.
155
00:08:43,042 --> 00:08:46,167
Could it be that
the structures on Nan Madol
156
00:08:46,292 --> 00:08:50,042
are ruins of an ancient
extraterrestrial civilization
157
00:08:50,125 --> 00:08:52,250
known as Mu?
158
00:08:52,333 --> 00:08:54,625
According to Rufino Mauricio,
159
00:08:54,708 --> 00:08:57,833
the Director of the Federal
States of Micronesia
160
00:08:57,917 --> 00:09:02,625
Office of National Archives,
it's a distinct possibility.
161
00:09:31,250 --> 00:09:35,083
Legends of lost
civilizations and sunken cities
162
00:09:35,208 --> 00:09:38,417
can be found in cultures
all around the world.
163
00:09:38,500 --> 00:09:41,417
But one has captured
the public's imagination
164
00:09:41,500 --> 00:09:43,042
more than any other.
165
00:09:43,125 --> 00:09:45,667
And some believe
we may have found
166
00:09:45,750 --> 00:09:49,583
evidence of its existence
in the Bermuda Triangle.
167
00:09:49,667 --> 00:09:53,083
Number eight on our top
ten mysteries of the deep:
168
00:09:53,167 --> 00:09:54,542
Atlantis.
169
00:09:56,875 --> 00:09:59,167
For over 2,000 years,
170
00:09:59,250 --> 00:10:01,792
the lost continent of Atlantis
171
00:10:01,875 --> 00:10:06,667
has sparked the imaginations
of historians and explorers.
172
00:10:06,750 --> 00:10:08,916
The first reference of
Atlantis that we have
173
00:10:08,917 --> 00:10:13,792
is in Plato's dialogues
by Timaeus and Critias.
174
00:10:14,750 --> 00:10:16,917
In the very end of
Timaeus, it talks about
175
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,292
this mythical
place called Atlantis
176
00:10:19,375 --> 00:10:23,792
from where any and all
knowledge of the world came.
177
00:10:24,792 --> 00:10:27,125
And so, some people
have suggested
178
00:10:27,208 --> 00:10:31,792
that the first civilization on
Earth may have been Atlantean.
179
00:10:33,333 --> 00:10:34,833
According to legend,
180
00:10:34,917 --> 00:10:38,875
Atlantis was founded
by the god Poseidon.
181
00:10:39,958 --> 00:10:44,333
He fell in love with a
human woman named Cleito,
182
00:10:44,417 --> 00:10:48,208
and they had five sets of twins.
183
00:10:48,292 --> 00:10:52,917
And these twins went on to
be the founders of Atlantis.
184
00:10:53,833 --> 00:10:55,113
Atlantis is thought to be
185
00:10:55,167 --> 00:10:58,292
a great civilization
of high culture
186
00:10:58,375 --> 00:11:00,667
and technological achievement.
187
00:11:01,708 --> 00:11:04,375
They had robotics at
a very advanced level.
188
00:11:04,458 --> 00:11:06,667
The power of
levitation, which is how
189
00:11:06,708 --> 00:11:08,417
they built their
glorious cities.
190
00:11:08,500 --> 00:11:10,417
They had achieved things
191
00:11:10,500 --> 00:11:12,792
that we still are
not able to do.
192
00:11:14,042 --> 00:11:15,625
According to Plato,
193
00:11:15,708 --> 00:11:18,417
Atlantis was destroyed
in a single night
194
00:11:18,500 --> 00:11:19,917
by a cataclysmic flood,
195
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,250
which some identify
as the Great Flood
196
00:11:23,333 --> 00:11:25,167
described in the Bible.
197
00:11:25,292 --> 00:11:29,958
But where the famous city
was located remains a mystery.
198
00:11:30,042 --> 00:11:34,417
Atlantis was allegedly
this land mass that existed
199
00:11:34,542 --> 00:11:37,583
beyond the Pillars of Hercules,
200
00:11:37,708 --> 00:11:39,791
which is today's
Strait of Gibraltar,
201
00:11:39,792 --> 00:11:42,875
and to this day,
if Atlantis existed,
202
00:11:42,958 --> 00:11:45,917
we have no idea where
exactly Atlantis was.
203
00:11:46,958 --> 00:11:48,833
While most mainstream historians
204
00:11:48,917 --> 00:11:51,208
dismiss the story of
the sunken civilization
205
00:11:51,292 --> 00:11:53,167
of Atlantis as a myth,
206
00:11:53,250 --> 00:11:56,833
ancient astronaut theorists
believe it really existed.
207
00:11:56,875 --> 00:12:00,000
And as evidence, they point
to a remarkable discovery
208
00:12:00,125 --> 00:12:02,708
made off the coast of Cuba.
209
00:12:08,125 --> 00:12:11,833
Canadian explorer Paulina
Zelitsky and her team
210
00:12:11,917 --> 00:12:15,167
are conducting an
oceanic survey off the coast
211
00:12:15,292 --> 00:12:17,500
when they detect
curious formations
212
00:12:17,583 --> 00:12:20,667
more than 2,000 feet underwater.
213
00:12:20,792 --> 00:12:23,750
I was in
control room on board of the ship.
214
00:12:23,833 --> 00:12:27,125
There suddenly appeared
215
00:12:27,208 --> 00:12:30,750
a very large, very dark images
216
00:12:30,833 --> 00:12:34,000
of, perfect geographical shapes.
217
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:50,500
They found,
when they were taking images,
218
00:12:50,583 --> 00:12:52,625
some kind of
pyramidical structure
219
00:12:52,708 --> 00:12:55,000
and other structures.
220
00:12:55,042 --> 00:12:56,792
There were circular areas,
221
00:12:56,875 --> 00:12:58,208
there was what appeared to be
222
00:12:58,292 --> 00:13:00,125
some kind of city
built down there.
223
00:13:00,208 --> 00:13:04,000
It was about two
square kilometers in size.
224
00:13:04,042 --> 00:13:06,167
And so, this is something
quite astonishing
225
00:13:06,250 --> 00:13:08,625
if this is, you know, a reality.
226
00:13:08,708 --> 00:13:10,542
And almost certainly,
227
00:13:10,667 --> 00:13:13,417
this dates back
several thousand years,
228
00:13:13,542 --> 00:13:15,542
and arguably even earlier,
229
00:13:15,625 --> 00:13:18,417
and is part of a
lost civilization.
230
00:13:19,500 --> 00:13:22,000
Is it possible
that the underwater ruins
231
00:13:22,083 --> 00:13:27,083
off the coast of Cuba are
the actual remains of Atlantis?
232
00:13:27,167 --> 00:13:30,417
Ancient astronaut
theorists say yes,
233
00:13:30,500 --> 00:13:32,500
and as further evidence,
234
00:13:32,583 --> 00:13:36,083
they point to their location
near the Bermuda Triangle,
235
00:13:36,167 --> 00:13:39,792
a region notorious
for mysterious lights,
236
00:13:39,875 --> 00:13:41,792
strange disappearances
237
00:13:41,875 --> 00:13:44,500
and unexplained phenomena.
238
00:13:45,542 --> 00:13:48,542
It's
speculated that in Atlantis,
239
00:13:48,625 --> 00:13:52,541
they were creating huge
pyramids and energy devices.
240
00:13:52,542 --> 00:13:56,375
The idea is that there is
still one of these pyramids,
241
00:13:56,458 --> 00:13:59,792
and it's active beneath
the Bermuda Triangle
242
00:13:59,917 --> 00:14:01,208
on the ocean floor,
243
00:14:01,292 --> 00:14:04,333
and it's creating
these anomalies
244
00:14:04,458 --> 00:14:07,708
that are sometimes seen
there at the Bermuda Triangle.
245
00:14:07,792 --> 00:14:10,292
If you are a
researcher into Atlantis,
246
00:14:10,375 --> 00:14:13,833
this is exactly the
kind of discovery
247
00:14:13,875 --> 00:14:16,292
that you are looking for.
248
00:14:16,375 --> 00:14:20,583
Some kind of pyramid
that's underwater.
249
00:14:20,667 --> 00:14:22,792
And in fact, this may well be,
250
00:14:22,875 --> 00:14:25,375
really, the evidence
for Atlantis that we need.
251
00:14:26,583 --> 00:14:29,833
Did Atlantis really exist?
252
00:14:29,917 --> 00:14:32,708
Recently, a mysterious
metal alloy was recovered
253
00:14:32,792 --> 00:14:34,666
from the depths of the ocean
254
00:14:34,667 --> 00:14:36,417
that may offer further evidence.
255
00:14:37,083 --> 00:14:39,750
Number seven on our countdown:
256
00:14:39,833 --> 00:14:41,417
Orichalcum.
257
00:14:45,625 --> 00:14:48,958
Sicily. 2015.
258
00:14:50,833 --> 00:14:53,458
Archaeologist Sebastiano Tusa
259
00:14:53,542 --> 00:14:57,083
excavates a shipwreck
less than a mile off the coast,
260
00:14:57,167 --> 00:15:01,208
which has remained undisturbed
for more than 2,600 years.
261
00:15:01,333 --> 00:15:03,667
His team dredges
up an ancient payload
262
00:15:03,750 --> 00:15:06,500
of 39 metal ingots.
263
00:15:06,542 --> 00:15:10,458
Spectrographic analysis
of the recovered alloy
264
00:15:10,542 --> 00:15:14,000
reveals the compound
is unlike anything
265
00:15:14,083 --> 00:15:15,667
ever found in the ancient
266
00:15:15,708 --> 00:15:18,042
or modern world.
267
00:15:19,833 --> 00:15:21,542
The interesting part about this
268
00:15:21,667 --> 00:15:24,333
is the composition of
the ingots that they found.
269
00:15:25,375 --> 00:15:29,917
The metal is 80%
copper, and 20% zinc.
270
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,833
There was other
things found in it,
271
00:15:31,917 --> 00:15:34,792
but that's the majority
of the composition.
272
00:15:34,875 --> 00:15:36,833
What's interesting about this
273
00:15:36,917 --> 00:15:39,542
is that zinc doesn't
naturally occur.
274
00:15:39,625 --> 00:15:41,957
We didn't have zinc until
about a thousand years ago,
275
00:15:41,958 --> 00:15:43,832
and this is 2,600 years old.
276
00:15:43,833 --> 00:15:48,167
How is it possible
that such an advanced alloy
277
00:15:48,250 --> 00:15:50,500
was produced
thousands of years ago,
278
00:15:50,583 --> 00:15:54,792
centuries before man had
the technology to create it?
279
00:15:54,875 --> 00:15:57,499
After conducting an analysis,
280
00:15:57,500 --> 00:15:59,958
scientists believe
the mysterious alloy
281
00:16:00,042 --> 00:16:03,292
is orichalcum, a
metal associated
282
00:16:03,375 --> 00:16:06,375
with the legendary
continent of Atlantis.
283
00:16:07,833 --> 00:16:09,125
According to Plato,
284
00:16:09,208 --> 00:16:14,958
orichalcum was an
orangish gold-type metal
285
00:16:15,042 --> 00:16:17,167
that was used in Atlantis.
286
00:16:17,250 --> 00:16:19,000
It's thought that orichalcum
287
00:16:19,042 --> 00:16:23,042
was some kind of
alloy of copper and gold,
288
00:16:23,167 --> 00:16:26,292
and the walls of Atlantis
were wallpapered,
289
00:16:26,417 --> 00:16:29,792
literally, with this
reddish-gold metal.
290
00:16:29,875 --> 00:16:31,667
According to Plato,
291
00:16:31,750 --> 00:16:34,708
this metal was given
to the people of Atlantis
292
00:16:34,792 --> 00:16:37,333
by the Greek god Cadmus.
293
00:16:38,542 --> 00:16:40,862
The actual
discovery of the orichalcum metal
294
00:16:40,917 --> 00:16:43,000
lends credence to
the idea that Cadmus
295
00:16:43,125 --> 00:16:44,875
did exist at one time,
296
00:16:44,958 --> 00:16:46,542
passing this
knowledge to humanity.
297
00:16:46,667 --> 00:16:50,333
And Atlantis could be an
actual physical location,
298
00:16:50,375 --> 00:16:53,833
possibly harnessing and
utilizing other advanced metals.
299
00:16:54,875 --> 00:16:57,917
The reason why this ties in
to the ancient astronaut theory
300
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,083
is based on an idea
301
00:17:00,167 --> 00:17:02,250
that the ancient gods of Greece
302
00:17:02,333 --> 00:17:05,792
were visiting extraterrestrials.
303
00:17:05,875 --> 00:17:08,375
Could this mysterious metal,
304
00:17:08,458 --> 00:17:10,792
found deep beneath
the ocean's surface,
305
00:17:10,875 --> 00:17:13,667
be proof that humans
lived side by side
306
00:17:13,750 --> 00:17:17,417
with otherworldly beings
thousands of years ago?
307
00:17:17,500 --> 00:17:20,000
Ancient astronaut
theorists say yes,
308
00:17:20,167 --> 00:17:22,792
and suggest that
further evidence
309
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:26,833
of extraterrestrial contact
can be found submerged
310
00:17:26,875 --> 00:17:30,250
in the waters off
the coast of India.
311
00:17:40,083 --> 00:17:42,875
India is a treasure trove
312
00:17:42,958 --> 00:17:44,583
for the ancient
astronaut theory.
313
00:17:44,708 --> 00:17:49,042
Its mythology is chock-full
of stories of flying chariots
314
00:17:49,167 --> 00:17:52,708
and god-like beings
descending from the sky.
315
00:17:52,792 --> 00:17:56,417
And every so often, the
ocean offers us evidence
316
00:17:56,542 --> 00:17:58,958
that these stories
could be true.
317
00:17:59,042 --> 00:18:01,333
At number six on our list
318
00:18:01,417 --> 00:18:04,167
of the top ten
mysteries of the deep:
319
00:18:04,250 --> 00:18:07,458
The Lost Pagodas
of Mahabalipuram.
320
00:18:09,875 --> 00:18:11,708
Mahabalipuram, India.
321
00:18:11,792 --> 00:18:15,667
On December 26, 2004,
322
00:18:15,708 --> 00:18:17,500
a powerful tsunami
323
00:18:17,583 --> 00:18:20,542
caused the water levels
in the city's harbor to drop.
324
00:18:20,667 --> 00:18:23,250
As the waters receded,
325
00:18:23,333 --> 00:18:25,875
residents noticed
something astonishing
326
00:18:25,958 --> 00:18:27,333
emerging from the sea:
327
00:18:27,375 --> 00:18:30,750
the ruins of several
ancient buildings.
328
00:18:32,208 --> 00:18:35,917
The ocean
receded about 500 or so meters,
329
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,333
and people that were there,
330
00:18:38,417 --> 00:18:42,583
they said they saw
walls, they saw structures
331
00:18:42,667 --> 00:18:45,500
that they'd never seen before
'cause now the water was gone.
332
00:18:46,875 --> 00:18:48,917
For the
more than one billion Hindus
333
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,208
around the world,
334
00:18:50,292 --> 00:18:52,625
the discovery of
these underwater ruins
335
00:18:52,708 --> 00:18:56,167
was remarkable because
they may provide evidence
336
00:18:56,208 --> 00:18:58,374
that a sensational story
337
00:18:58,375 --> 00:19:01,583
contained in ancient sacred
texts called the Puranas
338
00:19:01,667 --> 00:19:04,542
is not mythological
but historical.
339
00:19:05,708 --> 00:19:09,250
According to the story,
thousands of years ago,
340
00:19:09,333 --> 00:19:12,500
seven pagodas stood
at Mahabalipuram,
341
00:19:12,583 --> 00:19:15,583
but six of them became
submerged beneath the sea
342
00:19:15,667 --> 00:19:18,208
after the city was
attacked by a god
343
00:19:18,333 --> 00:19:21,000
who came down from the sky.
344
00:19:21,042 --> 00:19:23,250
The legend at Mahabalipuram
345
00:19:23,333 --> 00:19:25,792
says that the god
Indra became jealous
346
00:19:25,875 --> 00:19:30,167
of the special treatment of the
other gods depicted at the site.
347
00:19:30,208 --> 00:19:33,750
And that he then sent
a flood against the city.
348
00:19:35,208 --> 00:19:37,708
Hindu mythology
really reads like
349
00:19:37,833 --> 00:19:40,375
the wildest science
fiction of today.
350
00:19:41,375 --> 00:19:44,667
It's filled with all
kinds of magic stones,
351
00:19:44,750 --> 00:19:47,958
flying spaceships.
352
00:19:48,042 --> 00:19:50,500
In fact, ancient India,
353
00:19:50,625 --> 00:19:54,333
their entire pantheon
of gods is based
354
00:19:54,417 --> 00:19:58,208
exclusively on a cosmic origin,
355
00:19:58,292 --> 00:20:01,417
that they arrived
from deep space.
356
00:20:02,750 --> 00:20:05,375
For centuries,
many Hindus believed
357
00:20:05,458 --> 00:20:07,875
that the Shore Temple
at Mahabalipuram
358
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,292
represented the one surviving
pagoda from Indra's attack.
359
00:20:12,375 --> 00:20:14,667
Could the structures
that were revealed
360
00:20:14,750 --> 00:20:17,833
by the receding
ocean levels in 2004
361
00:20:17,917 --> 00:20:21,125
be the remnants of
the other six pagodas,
362
00:20:21,208 --> 00:20:24,042
proving that the
incredible story is true?
363
00:20:24,125 --> 00:20:29,000
At Mahabalipuram,
you have evidence that the legends
364
00:20:29,125 --> 00:20:32,000
are really correct
about this place.
365
00:20:32,042 --> 00:20:36,000
That it's far more ancient
than archeologists assumed.
366
00:20:36,083 --> 00:20:38,208
And it would seem
to be an indication
367
00:20:38,292 --> 00:20:41,167
that this was a real event,
368
00:20:41,250 --> 00:20:44,417
one that perhaps
included extraterrestrials.
369
00:20:45,375 --> 00:20:47,208
If you leave Mahabalipuram
370
00:20:47,292 --> 00:20:50,250
and travel 1,000
miles northwest,
371
00:20:50,333 --> 00:20:52,292
you will find another
mysterious site
372
00:20:52,375 --> 00:20:54,417
off the coast of India.
373
00:20:54,500 --> 00:20:58,125
20 feet beneath the waves
are the ruins of an ancient city
374
00:20:58,208 --> 00:21:01,958
that some believe was the
home of an extraterrestrial being.
375
00:21:02,042 --> 00:21:04,958
Number five on our list:
376
00:21:05,042 --> 00:21:06,917
The Sunken City of Dwarka.
377
00:21:10,458 --> 00:21:12,792
Dwarka, northwest India.
378
00:21:12,875 --> 00:21:15,583
April 1983.
379
00:21:16,667 --> 00:21:19,874
Marine archeologist Dr. S.R. Rao
380
00:21:19,875 --> 00:21:22,750
begins a seven-year
underwater exploration
381
00:21:22,833 --> 00:21:25,500
just off the coast of
this ancient fishing town,
382
00:21:25,583 --> 00:21:28,833
and what he finds is stunning.
383
00:21:28,917 --> 00:21:32,708
Submerged 20 feet beneath
the surface of the ocean,
384
00:21:32,792 --> 00:21:36,875
he finds sandstone
walls, cobblestone streets,
385
00:21:37,042 --> 00:21:40,417
and further evidence of
a prosperous ancient city
386
00:21:40,500 --> 00:21:42,958
that sank into the sea.
387
00:21:44,542 --> 00:21:48,375
At Dwarka, what has been
found so far under the ocean
388
00:21:48,458 --> 00:21:50,375
is incredibly tantalizing.
389
00:21:51,542 --> 00:21:53,667
For instance,
there's this huge wall,
390
00:21:53,750 --> 00:21:56,875
estimated about 580 meters long.
391
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,874
Pottery has been found,
anchors have been found,
392
00:22:00,875 --> 00:22:02,958
so this seems to have
been a maritime city.
393
00:22:04,708 --> 00:22:07,625
The remains that have
been discovered beneath the waters
394
00:22:07,708 --> 00:22:10,500
have been radiocarbon dated
395
00:22:10,542 --> 00:22:14,583
to at least 9,500 years.
396
00:22:15,667 --> 00:22:18,333
So, this was many
thousands of years
397
00:22:18,458 --> 00:22:21,667
older than that of Sumeria,
398
00:22:21,750 --> 00:22:23,750
Egypt and China.
399
00:22:25,583 --> 00:22:27,417
So, what exactly was going on
400
00:22:27,500 --> 00:22:29,208
in India at this time?
401
00:22:29,292 --> 00:22:31,083
For centuries,
402
00:22:31,167 --> 00:22:33,125
the modern-day city of Dwarka
403
00:22:33,208 --> 00:22:34,833
was thought by many Hindus
404
00:22:34,875 --> 00:22:37,916
to be the Dwarka described
in the Mahabharata
405
00:22:37,917 --> 00:22:41,917
as the ancient kingdom
of the god Krishna.
406
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,333
According to the text,
during the Kurukshetra war,
407
00:22:46,417 --> 00:22:48,958
a rival to Krishna, Lord Salva,
408
00:22:49,042 --> 00:22:52,417
attacked Dwarka
from a flying chariot.
409
00:22:54,292 --> 00:22:58,167
He actually, flew over Dwarka,
410
00:22:58,250 --> 00:22:59,667
using his chariot,
411
00:22:59,792 --> 00:23:03,417
and he started bombarding
the city of Dwarka,
412
00:23:03,500 --> 00:23:06,125
throwing down all
kinds of weapons.
413
00:23:07,500 --> 00:23:11,000
Shortly after the great
war, Krishna is killed.
414
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,667
And the city, this
magnificent city
415
00:23:14,708 --> 00:23:17,500
built on land that
came out of the sea,
416
00:23:17,625 --> 00:23:21,667
sank back into the ocean again.
417
00:23:21,708 --> 00:23:25,500
It only existed during the
time that Krishna lived there.
418
00:23:29,708 --> 00:23:31,667
Is it possible
419
00:23:31,750 --> 00:23:35,375
that the pre-Vedic
cultures of India
420
00:23:35,458 --> 00:23:37,333
really did have high technology?
421
00:23:37,458 --> 00:23:39,542
And I think, from
the ancient accounts
422
00:23:39,625 --> 00:23:42,333
and what's now been
discovered at Dwarka,
423
00:23:42,417 --> 00:23:44,500
the answer has to be yes.
424
00:23:48,292 --> 00:23:51,000
The discoveries at
Dwarka and Mahabalipuram
425
00:23:51,083 --> 00:23:54,875
provide sensational evidence
that ancient Hindu stories
426
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,958
of advanced technology
are not works of fiction.
427
00:23:59,042 --> 00:24:02,583
And there is yet another
incredible underwater structure
428
00:24:02,708 --> 00:24:05,167
located between
India and Sri Lanka
429
00:24:05,292 --> 00:24:07,167
that may offer further proof.
430
00:24:07,292 --> 00:24:09,083
Number four on our list:
431
00:24:09,167 --> 00:24:10,833
Rama's Bridge.
432
00:24:13,167 --> 00:24:17,667
Just off the
southeastern tip of India lies Sri Lanka.
433
00:24:17,708 --> 00:24:20,542
This island nation has
been an important trading hub
434
00:24:20,625 --> 00:24:22,333
for thousands of years,
435
00:24:22,458 --> 00:24:24,792
but it is nearly impossible
436
00:24:24,875 --> 00:24:27,667
for ships to pass between
Sri Lanka and India
437
00:24:27,750 --> 00:24:31,333
due to a more than
30-mile-long underwater barrier
438
00:24:31,417 --> 00:24:33,667
that links the two landmasses.
439
00:24:34,708 --> 00:24:37,792
If you look at
satellite imagery, you can see
440
00:24:37,875 --> 00:24:42,667
that there seems to be some
sort of a connector, a road.
441
00:24:42,750 --> 00:24:47,208
This is referred to
as Rama's Bridge.
442
00:24:47,292 --> 00:24:50,000
The mainstream
viewpoint is that Rama's Bridge
443
00:24:50,083 --> 00:24:52,792
is a chain of natural
limestone shoals.
444
00:24:52,875 --> 00:24:56,208
But millions of Hindus
believe the barrier is,
445
00:24:56,292 --> 00:24:58,707
in fact, an ancient bridge,
446
00:24:58,708 --> 00:25:01,250
one that was built by the
god for whom it is named.
447
00:25:02,542 --> 00:25:04,917
Rama is a major Hindu deity,
448
00:25:05,042 --> 00:25:08,582
considered by some to
be the supreme being.
449
00:25:08,583 --> 00:25:12,667
According to the ancient
Sanskrit text the Ramayana,
450
00:25:12,750 --> 00:25:16,500
Rama's wife was kidnapped
and taken to the kingdom of Lanka.
451
00:25:17,667 --> 00:25:21,667
To rescue her, Rama used
magical construction techniques
452
00:25:21,750 --> 00:25:24,458
to build a bridge to Lanka.
453
00:25:24,542 --> 00:25:28,042
Some of the interesting details
of the building of Rama's Bridge
454
00:25:28,125 --> 00:25:31,750
is that they were writing
Rama's name on these stones
455
00:25:31,833 --> 00:25:35,000
and that would magically
levitate the stones.
456
00:25:35,042 --> 00:25:37,083
And some of these
were very big stones, too.
457
00:25:38,542 --> 00:25:40,018
According to the mythology,
458
00:25:40,042 --> 00:25:44,250
you know, Rama lived
around 6,000 years ago,
459
00:25:44,375 --> 00:25:47,833
and there is interesting
fact that some geologists
460
00:25:47,917 --> 00:25:52,167
carbon-date the
material on the bottom
461
00:25:52,208 --> 00:25:54,541
approximately dating
around the same time.
462
00:25:54,542 --> 00:25:57,000
So that kind of
corroborates whether or not
463
00:25:57,125 --> 00:26:01,167
this story is connected
to the mythology
464
00:26:01,208 --> 00:26:05,042
because the age of
Rama is around that period.
465
00:26:05,125 --> 00:26:09,833
In 2018,
government officials in India
466
00:26:09,917 --> 00:26:12,333
voted against plans
to cut a shipping lane
467
00:26:12,417 --> 00:26:13,875
through the middle
of the barrier,
468
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,250
showing their
support for the notion
469
00:26:16,375 --> 00:26:19,625
that the underwater structure
known as Rama's Bridge
470
00:26:19,708 --> 00:26:22,750
was, in fact, built
by the Hindu deity.
471
00:26:24,208 --> 00:26:27,792
Rama's
Bridge to Sri Lanka is real.
472
00:26:27,875 --> 00:26:30,333
And you have to ask
yourself, was it built
473
00:26:30,417 --> 00:26:34,833
artificially by levitating
stones and putting them there?
474
00:26:34,958 --> 00:26:36,958
That's what the
Ramayana tells us.
475
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,750
Some of the mysteries
we've investigated
476
00:26:51,833 --> 00:26:54,542
on Ancient Aliens
are so baffling,
477
00:26:54,667 --> 00:26:58,000
we can only guess at
what might explain them.
478
00:26:58,042 --> 00:27:00,750
And perhaps one of
the most mystifying
479
00:27:00,875 --> 00:27:03,333
lies on the islands of Malta.
480
00:27:03,458 --> 00:27:05,792
Number three on our countdown
481
00:27:05,875 --> 00:27:08,333
of the top ten
mysteries of the deep:
482
00:27:08,417 --> 00:27:10,167
The Malta Cart Ruts.
483
00:27:14,167 --> 00:27:16,667
In the middle
of the Mediterranean Sea,
484
00:27:16,750 --> 00:27:21,208
just south of Sicily, lies
the Republic of Malta.
485
00:27:22,750 --> 00:27:24,375
This tiny island nation
486
00:27:24,458 --> 00:27:27,292
boasts some of the most
impressive megalithic structures
487
00:27:27,375 --> 00:27:28,542
on the planet.
488
00:27:28,625 --> 00:27:30,917
And crisscrossing the islands
489
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,375
is something even
more mysterious:
490
00:27:33,458 --> 00:27:37,542
a complex network of
grooves carved into the bedrock
491
00:27:37,625 --> 00:27:41,000
known simply as the "cart ruts."
492
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,292
Something that Malta
493
00:27:43,375 --> 00:27:45,833
is very well known
for archaeologically,
494
00:27:45,917 --> 00:27:49,167
besides the megalithic temples,
495
00:27:49,250 --> 00:27:50,375
are the cart ruts.
496
00:27:51,750 --> 00:27:56,250
These are ruts literally
in the limestone rock.
497
00:28:11,833 --> 00:28:13,292
If you have grooves
498
00:28:13,375 --> 00:28:17,458
that were created by some
sort of a transportation device,
499
00:28:17,542 --> 00:28:20,333
well, it had to have
been pulled by something,
500
00:28:20,375 --> 00:28:23,958
so where are the footprints?
501
00:28:24,042 --> 00:28:27,333
There are no footprints.
502
00:28:29,167 --> 00:28:32,958
How and why the cart
ruts were formed remains a mystery,
503
00:28:33,042 --> 00:28:37,208
but their existence poses
a profound possibility,
504
00:28:37,292 --> 00:28:39,375
because some believe
505
00:28:39,500 --> 00:28:42,708
they may reveal that there
was human activity on Malta
506
00:28:42,833 --> 00:28:45,167
many thousands of years before
507
00:28:45,250 --> 00:28:48,417
what has been suggested
by mainstream archaeology.
508
00:28:50,208 --> 00:28:52,125
We have cart ruts
509
00:28:52,208 --> 00:28:55,833
that go into the
Mediterranean Sea.
510
00:28:55,917 --> 00:28:58,375
And then they also come
out on the other side.
511
00:28:59,708 --> 00:29:01,500
How is this possible?
512
00:29:05,333 --> 00:29:08,083
Some of the cart
ruts that extend from dry land
513
00:29:08,167 --> 00:29:10,958
down into the sea have
reportedly been found
514
00:29:11,042 --> 00:29:14,292
at depths of as
much as 140 feet.
515
00:29:15,500 --> 00:29:17,333
This presents a critical clue
516
00:29:17,417 --> 00:29:20,625
as to just how long ago
they must have been created.
517
00:29:21,667 --> 00:29:25,417
I suspect that some of these
cart ruts are really ancient,
518
00:29:25,500 --> 00:29:27,292
and when I say "really ancient,"
519
00:29:27,375 --> 00:29:29,375
that is going back
520
00:29:29,458 --> 00:29:32,917
to before the end
of the last ice age.
521
00:29:34,083 --> 00:29:38,500
So, approximately,
12,000 years or so,
522
00:29:38,583 --> 00:29:40,333
the ice age ended, we know.
523
00:29:42,042 --> 00:29:45,583
Some of these cart
ruts going into the water,
524
00:29:45,667 --> 00:29:50,333
that would've been dry land
when sea levels were much lower.
525
00:29:51,833 --> 00:29:54,917
If you propose the idea
that 12,000 years ago,
526
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:59,167
which is a fact, the worldwide
water levels were lower,
527
00:29:59,292 --> 00:30:01,458
then all of a sudden,
these cart ruts
528
00:30:01,542 --> 00:30:04,333
that go into the Mediterranean
Sea make sense.
529
00:30:05,375 --> 00:30:08,000
The fact that
these cart ruts exist,
530
00:30:08,125 --> 00:30:12,833
to me, illustrates that
an advanced civilization
531
00:30:12,958 --> 00:30:15,292
must have existed at that time.
532
00:30:16,375 --> 00:30:20,000
If the cart ruts
are more than 12,000 years old,
533
00:30:20,042 --> 00:30:22,167
as some researchers suggest,
534
00:30:22,208 --> 00:30:24,375
who would have been
around to create them?
535
00:30:25,833 --> 00:30:28,333
It's a question that
continues to baffle
536
00:30:28,458 --> 00:30:30,083
mainstream archaeologists.
537
00:30:30,167 --> 00:30:33,167
But according
to local traditions,
538
00:30:33,208 --> 00:30:35,875
the megalithic
structures on Malta
539
00:30:35,958 --> 00:30:37,833
were built by a
race of giant beings
540
00:30:37,917 --> 00:30:40,542
who came to
Earth from the stars.
541
00:30:42,083 --> 00:30:43,875
We have to
be open to the possibility
542
00:30:43,958 --> 00:30:45,708
that whoever built these
543
00:30:45,792 --> 00:30:47,750
were not, in fact, human beings,
544
00:30:47,833 --> 00:30:49,375
but were perhaps
a separate race,
545
00:30:49,500 --> 00:30:51,833
and their existence
and even their origins,
546
00:30:51,958 --> 00:30:54,083
is completely
shrouded in mystery.
547
00:30:55,375 --> 00:30:57,625
Are the so-called "cart ruts,"
548
00:30:57,708 --> 00:30:59,333
that not only crisscross Malta
549
00:30:59,375 --> 00:31:02,375
but extend deep into
the Mediterranean Sea,
550
00:31:02,500 --> 00:31:06,083
evidence of advanced,
otherworldly visitors?
551
00:31:07,167 --> 00:31:09,000
For ancient astronaut theorists,
552
00:31:09,125 --> 00:31:12,208
the answer is a resounding yes.
553
00:31:13,375 --> 00:31:16,749
And they suggest that
the waters of our oceans
554
00:31:16,750 --> 00:31:18,167
not only contain evidence
555
00:31:18,250 --> 00:31:22,000
of extraterrestrial
visitation in the distant past,
556
00:31:22,083 --> 00:31:24,875
but they are the
location of encounters
557
00:31:24,958 --> 00:31:28,917
that are happening
to this very day.
558
00:31:38,083 --> 00:31:43,208
Most people assume that
UFOs are only seen up in the sky.
559
00:31:43,292 --> 00:31:46,083
But what if I told you
that some of the most
560
00:31:46,167 --> 00:31:49,875
widely reported sightings
involve mysterious craft
561
00:31:49,958 --> 00:31:53,125
flying in and out of our oceans?
562
00:31:53,208 --> 00:31:55,167
Number two on our countdown
563
00:31:55,250 --> 00:31:57,833
of the top ten
mysteries of the deep:
564
00:31:57,875 --> 00:32:00,708
Unidentified
Submersible Objects.
565
00:32:06,958 --> 00:32:09,500
Hitachi Province, Japan.
566
00:32:09,625 --> 00:32:11,208
1803.
567
00:32:13,458 --> 00:32:17,792
Local fishermen are astonished
when a mysterious metal craft
568
00:32:17,875 --> 00:32:22,083
washes ashore that is unlike
anything they have ever seen.
569
00:32:24,250 --> 00:32:26,167
This craft was likened
570
00:32:26,292 --> 00:32:29,375
to the shape of a
Japanese incense burner.
571
00:32:29,500 --> 00:32:34,083
It is almost literally a
flying disk, a flying saucer.
572
00:32:34,167 --> 00:32:36,875
On the outside of this craft
573
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,917
were multiple
small metal plates,
574
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,292
not too dissimilar
to heat-resistant tiles
575
00:32:44,375 --> 00:32:47,000
that you'd find, say,
on a space shuttle.
576
00:32:49,375 --> 00:32:51,375
A hatch opened,
577
00:32:51,500 --> 00:32:54,125
and a young woman
came out of the craft
578
00:32:54,208 --> 00:32:58,125
dressed in clothes that
had never been seen before,
579
00:32:58,208 --> 00:33:00,083
and speaking a language
580
00:33:00,208 --> 00:33:02,542
that nobody understood
in the slightest.
581
00:33:03,958 --> 00:33:06,000
The story of the strange craft
582
00:33:06,083 --> 00:33:10,000
appears in three
different Japanese texts.
583
00:33:10,125 --> 00:33:12,500
Even today, modern historians
584
00:33:12,542 --> 00:33:16,167
struggle to understand
what this means.
585
00:33:17,208 --> 00:33:19,167
Another famous incident
586
00:33:19,250 --> 00:33:22,874
involving a strange craft
emerging from underwater
587
00:33:22,875 --> 00:33:25,000
occurred in Yunnan
Province, China,
588
00:33:25,083 --> 00:33:28,333
on October 24, 1991.
589
00:33:28,417 --> 00:33:31,958
A local man was
fishing on Fuxian Lake
590
00:33:32,042 --> 00:33:34,250
on a clear and tranquil day
591
00:33:34,375 --> 00:33:37,333
when a large disc suddenly
flew out of the water.
592
00:33:37,375 --> 00:33:40,042
This strange craft
593
00:33:40,125 --> 00:33:43,833
actually emerged from
the waters of the lake.
594
00:33:43,958 --> 00:33:46,458
He described it
as a shining disc.
595
00:33:47,542 --> 00:33:50,958
This UFO was so
close and so powerful
596
00:33:51,042 --> 00:33:53,542
that it actually tossed
the boat around.
597
00:33:54,958 --> 00:33:56,875
And then, rapidly, this craft
598
00:33:56,958 --> 00:33:59,417
just disappeared
up into the sky.
599
00:34:06,667 --> 00:34:10,000
Navy personnel
aboard the USS Omaha
600
00:34:10,083 --> 00:34:13,667
capture footage of a
mysterious round object
601
00:34:13,792 --> 00:34:15,667
flying into the ocean.
602
00:34:15,708 --> 00:34:17,333
Night footage
603
00:34:17,375 --> 00:34:19,292
actually shows a craft
604
00:34:19,375 --> 00:34:21,625
that is spherical and
it's flying through the air...
605
00:34:23,042 --> 00:34:25,375
and then suddenly
it flies into the water
606
00:34:25,458 --> 00:34:27,208
without making a splash.
607
00:34:28,708 --> 00:34:31,333
Japan. China.
608
00:34:31,458 --> 00:34:32,792
San Diego.
609
00:34:32,875 --> 00:34:36,208
These are just three
out of hundreds of reports
610
00:34:36,292 --> 00:34:38,417
of what are known as "USOs."
611
00:34:38,542 --> 00:34:43,625
A USO is an
"unidentified submerged object."
612
00:34:44,792 --> 00:34:46,417
It's the same thing as a UFO,
613
00:34:46,500 --> 00:34:48,167
except this one's in the water,
614
00:34:48,292 --> 00:34:49,667
and a UFO is a flying object.
615
00:34:51,083 --> 00:34:53,083
You see them off
the coast of California,
616
00:34:53,208 --> 00:34:55,417
you see them a lot
in the Gulf of Mexico.
617
00:34:55,500 --> 00:34:59,374
Spend some time on
the Florida Gulf Coast,
618
00:34:59,375 --> 00:35:01,375
you will see a USO.
619
00:35:02,542 --> 00:35:04,292
These objects are flying along,
620
00:35:04,375 --> 00:35:06,042
through the atmosphere,
621
00:35:06,125 --> 00:35:08,375
and then suddenly,
they go into the ocean.
622
00:35:08,458 --> 00:35:10,958
No splash, no wake, nothing.
623
00:35:11,042 --> 00:35:12,542
They just go
right into the water
624
00:35:12,667 --> 00:35:15,542
and then come out of the water
in many cases, and fly away.
625
00:35:15,625 --> 00:35:17,625
Now, one such never
came out of the water,
626
00:35:17,708 --> 00:35:20,583
and a submarine was actually
dispatched to look for a craft
627
00:35:20,667 --> 00:35:22,792
that may have crashed,
but never found anything.
628
00:35:24,042 --> 00:35:25,542
The stresses and strains
629
00:35:25,625 --> 00:35:27,583
by flying through
the atmosphere,
630
00:35:27,708 --> 00:35:30,625
in outer space and then
plunging into the oceans
631
00:35:30,708 --> 00:35:34,250
would be enough to rupture
any of our known aircraft.
632
00:35:35,292 --> 00:35:37,042
For ancient astronaut theorists,
633
00:35:37,167 --> 00:35:38,667
perhaps the most
compelling story
634
00:35:38,792 --> 00:35:41,458
of an extraterrestrial
presence in Earth's oceans
635
00:35:41,542 --> 00:35:43,792
can be found in an account
636
00:35:43,875 --> 00:35:46,333
from 1492,
637
00:35:46,417 --> 00:35:49,167
recorded by
Christopher Columbus.
638
00:35:50,667 --> 00:35:53,500
There's a famous story
about Christopher Columbus
639
00:35:53,625 --> 00:35:55,417
and he wrote this
in his journals...
640
00:35:56,708 --> 00:36:00,333
that as he was moving
west across the Atlantic,
641
00:36:00,417 --> 00:36:02,833
towards the Caribbean,
in his first voyage,
642
00:36:02,917 --> 00:36:06,958
he saw a light out in
the ocean to the west,
643
00:36:07,042 --> 00:36:09,500
hovering over the water.
644
00:36:09,583 --> 00:36:14,292
And this light then
descended into the water.
645
00:36:14,375 --> 00:36:18,583
So, he's perhaps one of
the first witnesses to describe
646
00:36:18,667 --> 00:36:20,667
a trans-medium craft like this,
647
00:36:20,792 --> 00:36:23,667
which could hover,
above the water
648
00:36:23,792 --> 00:36:25,833
and then disappear
into it like a submarine.
649
00:36:27,792 --> 00:36:32,500
Stories of undersea
objects, glowing objects
650
00:36:32,583 --> 00:36:34,500
that fly out of the
water, have been around
651
00:36:34,583 --> 00:36:37,167
for well over
thousands of years.
652
00:36:37,208 --> 00:36:41,333
Are these machines
that the extraterrestrials
653
00:36:41,458 --> 00:36:43,208
have under the water?
654
00:36:45,292 --> 00:36:47,917
There is only one mystery
left on our countdown,
655
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:51,375
and you don't want to miss it
because what was discovered
656
00:36:51,458 --> 00:36:56,458
just may be evidence of
an underwater alien base.
657
00:37:05,792 --> 00:37:08,875
On Ancient Aliens,
we've investigated
658
00:37:08,958 --> 00:37:10,875
the ocean's biggest mysteries
659
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:15,500
for evidence of extraterrestrial
contact in the distant past.
660
00:37:15,542 --> 00:37:17,667
But recent satellite images
661
00:37:17,750 --> 00:37:20,625
may suggest that
otherworldly beings
662
00:37:20,708 --> 00:37:23,500
are inhabiting our oceans today.
663
00:37:24,458 --> 00:37:26,542
Number one on our list
664
00:37:26,625 --> 00:37:28,375
of the top ten
mysteries of the deep:
665
00:37:28,458 --> 00:37:30,792
Underwater Alien Bases.
666
00:37:35,375 --> 00:37:37,833
With almost
200 miles of coastline,
667
00:37:37,917 --> 00:37:41,167
this picturesque region
is famous for its beaches,
668
00:37:41,250 --> 00:37:45,083
surfing and abundant sea life.
669
00:37:45,208 --> 00:37:46,917
It is also a hotspot
670
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:51,417
for sightings of mysterious
lights in the water.
671
00:37:51,500 --> 00:37:53,917
Folks have seen lights
672
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,292
in the water outside Point Dume
673
00:37:56,375 --> 00:37:57,708
off the Malibu coast.
674
00:37:59,125 --> 00:38:02,333
There is this very
strange 911 call
675
00:38:02,375 --> 00:38:05,375
from an observer
near Point Dume,
676
00:38:05,458 --> 00:38:07,708
saying he saw a light
coming out of the water
677
00:38:07,792 --> 00:38:09,667
and calling it into
the sheriff's station.
678
00:38:10,833 --> 00:38:13,667
One theory about
this trans-medium travel
679
00:38:13,750 --> 00:38:17,333
and these USOs is
that what we're seeing
680
00:38:17,417 --> 00:38:20,750
is evidence of underwater bases.
681
00:38:20,833 --> 00:38:23,875
They're operating here,
but under the oceans,
682
00:38:23,958 --> 00:38:25,583
right under our noses.
683
00:38:26,750 --> 00:38:29,792
While the
idea of underwater alien bases
684
00:38:29,875 --> 00:38:33,333
in Earth's oceans may
sound like science fiction,
685
00:38:33,375 --> 00:38:36,833
in 2014, satellite imagery
686
00:38:36,958 --> 00:38:40,167
revealed a very curious
formation on the seabed
687
00:38:40,208 --> 00:38:43,000
six miles off the
coast of Malibu.
688
00:38:44,208 --> 00:38:47,417
The satellite
photos show what seems to be
689
00:38:47,500 --> 00:38:50,833
an oval, flat-topped structure
690
00:38:50,875 --> 00:38:55,375
that's got legs coming
down that are holding it up.
691
00:38:56,542 --> 00:38:59,750
It's about 2,000
feet underwater.
692
00:38:59,833 --> 00:39:04,083
A lot of people got
very excited by this discovery.
693
00:39:04,167 --> 00:39:05,750
It's really quite striking,
694
00:39:05,875 --> 00:39:08,542
and it really does
look artificial.
695
00:39:09,667 --> 00:39:12,000
And it makes you
wonder, is this,
696
00:39:12,042 --> 00:39:14,542
as some believe, an
extraterrestrial base?
697
00:39:15,708 --> 00:39:18,667
Is there a
connection between the strange lights
698
00:39:18,750 --> 00:39:22,332
seen in the waters off the
coast of Southern California
699
00:39:22,333 --> 00:39:24,417
and the mysterious
undersea structure
700
00:39:24,542 --> 00:39:26,792
captured in the satellite image?
701
00:39:26,875 --> 00:39:30,417
For some scientists,
it's a distinct possibility.
702
00:39:31,958 --> 00:39:34,708
If all these objects
are buzzing our aircraft,
703
00:39:34,792 --> 00:39:38,000
they must have a
base of operations.
704
00:39:38,125 --> 00:39:40,708
But you see, if they
have a base of operations
705
00:39:40,833 --> 00:39:43,500
that's easily detected
by us humans,
706
00:39:43,583 --> 00:39:46,500
it would sort of defeat the
purpose of observing us.
707
00:39:46,625 --> 00:39:49,333
So, perhaps there's
an underwater base
708
00:39:49,375 --> 00:39:52,500
that is away from
prying eyes of humans
709
00:39:52,542 --> 00:39:55,542
so that we don't
interfere with their plans.
710
00:39:55,625 --> 00:39:58,083
That cannot be ruled out.
711
00:40:00,375 --> 00:40:03,292
While the formation
discovered deep in the ocean
712
00:40:03,375 --> 00:40:05,667
off the coast of Malibu
is highly unusual,
713
00:40:05,750 --> 00:40:08,000
it is not entirely unique.
714
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,625
Across the globe,
mysterious anomalies
715
00:40:12,708 --> 00:40:14,875
have been detected on the seabed
716
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,833
that some suggest are
underwater alien structures.
717
00:40:18,917 --> 00:40:21,708
The under ocean
geological survey
718
00:40:21,792 --> 00:40:24,542
determined that there
were dome-like structures
719
00:40:24,667 --> 00:40:27,958
between Cuba and
the coast of Florida.
720
00:40:28,042 --> 00:40:30,500
Was that a USO base?
721
00:40:31,542 --> 00:40:34,083
Because underwater,
underneath our oceans,
722
00:40:34,167 --> 00:40:36,583
best place,
723
00:40:36,708 --> 00:40:39,000
the very best place
to conceal yourself.
724
00:40:40,875 --> 00:40:43,333
Absolutely
anything could be hiding within
725
00:40:43,458 --> 00:40:45,042
the oceans themself.
726
00:40:45,125 --> 00:40:48,792
And the depths of
them could hide vehicles,
727
00:40:48,875 --> 00:40:51,917
could even hide bases,
728
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,458
for hundreds, if
not thousands of years.
729
00:40:54,542 --> 00:40:56,667
We would not be
aware of their presence.
730
00:40:58,542 --> 00:41:00,042
The oceans have everything
731
00:41:00,125 --> 00:41:04,417
that the crew of a ship
would need to survive.
732
00:41:04,500 --> 00:41:09,208
It's got plants and animals
that can be harvested for food.
733
00:41:09,292 --> 00:41:11,333
There's minerals and salt
734
00:41:11,417 --> 00:41:13,208
that can be taken
from the water.
735
00:41:14,458 --> 00:41:18,250
You can even
separate the hydrogen
736
00:41:18,333 --> 00:41:20,875
from the oxygen in the water
737
00:41:20,958 --> 00:41:24,208
to create fuels
and-and air to breathe.
738
00:41:25,875 --> 00:41:29,167
Everything that is
necessary for life
739
00:41:29,208 --> 00:41:31,458
can be found in the oceans,
740
00:41:31,542 --> 00:41:34,167
and it may be that
if extraterrestrials
741
00:41:34,292 --> 00:41:37,417
are in our oceans,
they're not just hiding there,
742
00:41:37,500 --> 00:41:39,708
this may be their
preferred environment.
743
00:41:43,667 --> 00:41:45,917
The idea that alien
bases might be hidden
744
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:49,583
on the ocean floor
is incredibly thrilling.
745
00:41:50,625 --> 00:41:52,624
But while much of
the ocean's depths
746
00:41:52,625 --> 00:41:54,750
remain impossible to explore,
747
00:41:54,833 --> 00:41:57,542
ancient astronaut
theorists believe
748
00:41:57,625 --> 00:41:59,333
that the deeper we go,
749
00:41:59,375 --> 00:42:01,875
the closer we'll
get to the truth
750
00:42:01,958 --> 00:42:05,583
about mankind's
extraterrestrial past.
751
