I believe that History has to be re-examined, findings from John Anthony West and Robert Schoch on the Sphinx's age has proved that reinvestigation into the whole human history is long over-due.

00:02:29,539 --> 00:02:34,634
Great Pyramid at Giza is one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.
7
00:02:36,087 --> 00:02:38,000
This magnificent construction
8
00:02:38,025 --> 00:02:42,020
Is the only one of the original 7 wonders that still remain standing
9
00:02:44,944 --> 00:02:49,995
This is a story of disturbing questions and unbelievable answers.
10
00:02:50,123 --> 00:02:54,763
a story that challenges everything we know about the history of our planet
11
00:03:05,936 --> 00:03:09,254
Building the Great Pyramid was an astonishing achievement.
12
00:03:09,422 --> 00:03:13,154
There are eight major feats of engineering evolved in the building
13
00:03:15,726 --> 00:03:17,594
first the Builders leveled the ground
14
00:03:17,619 --> 00:03:20,021
and cut a 6,000 hectare bedrock
15
00:03:20,141 --> 00:03:22,926
to fit many strangely shaped slabs
16
00:03:23,150 --> 00:03:25,606
each one as heavy as a car
17
00:03:37,845 --> 00:03:40,908
Second, they carried 130 granite blocks,
18
00:03:41,203 --> 00:03:43,238
over 500 miles
19
00:03:43,524 --> 00:03:47,373
Each block weighed between 12 and 70 tons
20
00:03:47,897 --> 00:03:50,806
The blocks were hauled up 210 feet
21
00:03:51,188 --> 00:03:54,632
an achievement which even today would be a challenge.
22
00:03:55,522 --> 00:03:59,285
Third: the Great Pyramid has three chambers inside it
23
00:03:59,563 --> 00:04:03,893
With breathtaking precision, the builders cut a passage through the solid rock
24
00:04:04,195 --> 00:04:07,550
300 feet long by 3 feet wide
25
00:04:07,606 --> 00:04:09,762
to reach the lowest chamber.
26
00:04:10,874 --> 00:04:15,930
Pier Luigi Copat an architect who helped create the berlin Potsdamer Platz
27
00:04:16,034 --> 00:04:17,325
seems surprised.
28
00:04:17,841 --> 00:04:20,071
the Descending passage was narrow,
29
00:04:20,096 --> 00:04:23,221
so the working conditions would have been terrible.
30
00:04:26,747 --> 00:04:31,082
Keeping the tunnel at exactly the same angel would need special tools.
31
00:04:32,329 --> 00:04:35,884
You would need precision tools throughout the whole building process
32
00:04:39,413 --> 00:04:43,968
Fourth: the builders worked with more that 2 million pieces of stone,
33
00:04:44,143 --> 00:04:46,543
all of different shapes and sizes. (Heterogeneous)
34
00:04:46,949 --> 00:04:50,124
this makes accurate building much harder
35
00:04:53,815 --> 00:04:59,601
In spite of this, the upper chamber is perfectly horizontal and vertical.
36
00:04:59,808 --> 00:05:03,633
the Builders got it right to within a 50th of and inch
37
00:05:05,371 --> 00:05:10,253
this is a feat any modern structural engineer would envy
38
00:05:10,563 --> 00:05:13,762
To build things so accurately, such a long time ago.
39
00:05:13,787 --> 00:05:15,950
is, is frankly amazing.
40
00:05:16,126 --> 00:05:20,237
And even now, I think most people would say, it would be too difficult
41
00:05:20,262 --> 00:05:25,280
for, you know, for most builders to get anything like that accurate
42
00:05:26,574 --> 00:05:28,238
And it worked!
43
00:05:28,263 --> 00:05:30,470
the Great Pyramid stayed intact
44
00:05:30,495 --> 00:05:33,604
through earthquakes that flattened everything around it
45
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:38,274
Everything was in its proper place, nothing had moved inside.
46
00:05:40,377 --> 00:05:44,978
Fifth: the position of the Great Pyramid is absolutely precise
47
00:05:45,312 --> 00:05:49,183
It points north within five hundredths of a degree.
48
00:05:49,494 --> 00:05:53,407
We only learned to do this recently, in the seventeenth century,
49
00:05:53,432 --> 00:05:55,717
thousands of years after the pyramid was built
50
00:05:55,742 --> 00:05:59,065
they couldn't come close to that degree of precision
51
00:06:04,542 --> 00:06:09,130
Sixth: The Great Pyramid actually has eight sides.
52
00:06:09,218 --> 00:06:11,178
Building an eight sided pyramid
53
00:06:11,203 --> 00:06:14,718
is even more complicated, than building a four-sided one
54
00:06:15,933 --> 00:06:17,790
To keep this eight sided base
55
00:06:17,815 --> 00:06:20,599
on the four sides of the edifice during the build
56
00:06:22,309 --> 00:06:26,790
with an accuracy down to a centimeter, even down to a millimeter.
57
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,229
this would have been extremely difficult.
58
00:06:32,976 --> 00:06:35,920
If we want to build a structure like this today
59
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,762
even using all modern measuring devices
60
00:06:38,787 --> 00:06:41,166
and building techniques at our disposal
61
00:06:41,230 --> 00:06:43,792
we'd still be in real trouble
62
00:06:47,547 --> 00:06:50,208
Seventh: they worked at speed
63
00:06:50,327 --> 00:06:54,763
Egyptologists think the pyramid only took 20 years to build
64
00:06:54,904 --> 00:06:58,015
There are over two million stone blocks in the pyramid.
65
00:06:58,063 --> 00:07:00,182
If they worked 12-hour shifts,
66
00:07:00,246 --> 00:07:02,414
365 days a year
67
00:07:02,502 --> 00:07:05,936
they'd have to quarry, carve, lift and fit one block
68
00:07:05,961 --> 00:07:08,403
every two and a half minutes.
69
00:07:08,578 --> 00:07:09,935
And, finally,
70
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,411
since the ancient Egyptians didn't have wheels, iron or steel
71
00:07:13,499 --> 00:07:16,883
the seventh wonder of the world was built with copper chisels,
72
00:07:17,051 --> 00:07:19,625
stone mallets, and hemp ropes.
73
00:07:26,467 --> 00:07:29,775
So, 4,700 years years ago (Supposedly)
74
00:07:29,855 --> 00:07:33,624
when the rest of the planet was still wandered about in animal skins,
75
00:07:33,748 --> 00:07:37,548
the ancient Egyptians, flattened a limestone hill et
76
00:07:39,532 --> 00:07:42,692
paved an area the size of six football pitches
77
00:07:42,891 --> 00:07:45,320
pilled up two million blocks of stone,
78
00:07:45,345 --> 00:07:48,089
the height of a 42 story building
79
00:07:48,216 --> 00:07:52,814
drove a narrow 300 foot long passage, utterly straight through the rock
80
00:07:52,894 --> 00:07:56,863
fitted the stone in the inner chamber with complete precision,
81
00:07:57,054 --> 00:08:01,034
built the outside of the pyramid with eight-sides instead of four
82
00:08:01,059 --> 00:08:03,477
and made it earthquakes proof
83
00:08:05,430 --> 00:08:08,684
lined it up precisely with magnetic north
84
00:08:08,709 --> 00:08:12,028
and got the whole job done in 20 years,
85
00:08:12,148 --> 00:08:14,593
using only these
86
00:08:17,929 --> 00:08:19,881
The construction of this pyramid
87
00:08:19,906 --> 00:08:23,732
in such a short space of time with such limited tools
88
00:08:23,757 --> 00:08:26,615
is so amazing, so astonishing
89
00:08:26,711 --> 00:08:28,606
that we have to wonder
90
00:08:28,631 --> 00:08:30,763
Was it even possible?
91
00:08:34,947 --> 00:08:38,519
To answer this we have to go back the history books
92
00:08:39,043 --> 00:08:43,080
and find out what we really know about the ancient Egyptians.
93
00:08:48,620 --> 00:08:52,898
We can be certain about dates from 680 BC
94
00:08:53,113 --> 00:08:57,496
because thats when we can begin to cross check Egyptian archives
95
00:08:57,521 --> 00:08:59,344
with the Roman and Greek ones
96
00:08:59,639 --> 00:09:02,505
Before that, it's guess work
97
00:09:03,506 --> 00:09:07,148
and the Differences could be give or take 200 years
98
00:09:07,173 --> 00:09:12,014
You may think the Egyptologists is overwhelmed by written evidence.
99
00:09:12,451 --> 00:09:14,421
this is True, for some periods
100
00:09:14,446 --> 00:09:18,665
but for others, like the ancient empire we know very little.
101
00:09:18,777 --> 00:09:22,573
and thats why, finally, your questions are ours.
102
00:09:22,812 --> 00:09:25,164
When it comes to the building of the pyramids,
103
00:09:25,371 --> 00:09:29,050
we have a lot of theories, but no written account.
104
00:09:29,178 --> 00:09:32,313
the Pyramid is thought to be the tomb of Pharaoh Cheops,
105
00:09:32,409 --> 00:09:35,347
Although we have little historical information about it.
106
00:09:35,610 --> 00:09:38,019
As with all the Egyptian pharaohs,
107
00:09:38,115 --> 00:09:40,875
we don't have any proper historical records
108
00:09:49,497 --> 00:09:53,185
There is evidence in papyrus and carved into the rock
109
00:09:53,304 --> 00:09:56,391
but no one can agreed on what it means
110
00:10:01,691 --> 00:10:04,764
There is no agreement among Egyptologists.
111
00:10:05,193 --> 00:10:07,364
They look at the evidence on the ground
112
00:10:07,389 --> 00:10:09,412
and sometimes conclude one thing
113
00:10:09,612 --> 00:10:11,445
and sometimes another.
114
00:10:18,397 --> 00:10:23,103
So if historians and Egyptologists cant tell us how the Great Pyramid was built,
115
00:10:23,186 --> 00:10:26,896
Maybe we should ask geologists, stone cutters and engineers,
116
00:10:26,921 --> 00:10:28,928
men with technical know-how
117
00:10:29,087 --> 00:10:33,002
the people who do these kind of big projects in our own time
118
00:10:39,010 --> 00:10:40,637
In the 1960s,
119
00:10:40,977 --> 00:10:43,576
engineers raised the Abu Simbel temple
120
00:10:43,601 --> 00:10:47,012
to keep if from being flooded by the Aswan Dams water
121
00:10:47,544 --> 00:10:49,417
in spite of cranes and trucks,
122
00:10:49,442 --> 00:10:52,623
It took five years to quarry and rebuild this temple
123
00:10:52,673 --> 00:10:55,235
made of 2,200 blocks
124
00:10:55,522 --> 00:10:57,915
some weighing 30 tons.
125
00:10:58,029 --> 00:10:59,939
It was a huge achievement
126
00:10:59,964 --> 00:11:03,208
but nothing compared with building the Great Pyramid.
127
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:07,216
This clay quarry in France is roughly the size of the Great Pyramid.
128
00:11:07,636 --> 00:11:10,179
It took 12 years to fill it
129
00:11:10,497 --> 00:11:13,036
and all they were doing was dumping rubble
130
00:11:13,203 --> 00:11:15,125
they didn't have to build a thing
131
00:11:26,046 --> 00:11:30,728
Jean Pierre Martin, headed one Frances biggest construction projects
132
00:11:30,990 --> 00:11:33,124
What dose he make of the great pyramid
133
00:11:33,513 --> 00:11:37,246
either you believe in God and aliens and you imagine all sorts of things,
134
00:11:37,271 --> 00:11:39,971
or, like me, you like to keep it down to earth
135
00:11:39,996 --> 00:11:43,276
believing only in man and asking yourself how he did it.
136
00:11:43,808 --> 00:11:45,212
I have no clue
137
00:11:45,237 --> 00:11:47,664
I couldn't do it, thats for sure
138
00:11:50,871 --> 00:11:54,053
The Building of the Teotihuacan Pyramid in Mexico,
139
00:11:54,165 --> 00:11:56,665
which is only half as tall as the Great Pyramid,
140
00:11:56,690 --> 00:11:58,553
took 150 years,
141
00:11:58,934 --> 00:12:03,712
but Egyptologists insist that the pyramid at Giza took only 20 years to built
142
00:12:05,879 --> 00:12:08,284
It must have been built that quickly, they say,
143
00:12:08,310 --> 00:12:10,921
because it was built to be Cheops tomb
144
00:12:14,385 --> 00:12:18,862
for a long time there was some talk, not from Egyptologists I like to stress
145
00:12:18,950 --> 00:12:22,087
there was some talk that the pyramids could have had another function
146
00:12:22,262 --> 00:12:24,020
that is unthinkable
147
00:12:26,632 --> 00:12:31,621
But if we decide, it was impossible to build the Great Pyramid in 20 years
148
00:12:31,947 --> 00:12:35,454
then maybe its time to think the unthinkable
149
00:12:36,001 --> 00:12:39,201
maybe the great pyramid isn't a tomb
150
00:12:39,464 --> 00:12:42,741
maybe is was built for something else
151
00:12:45,623 --> 00:12:47,559
There are other sites in Egypt,
152
00:12:47,584 --> 00:12:51,234
where blocks of even shape and sizes, are used for building
153
00:12:51,377 --> 00:12:53,609
but nobody knows why.
154
00:13:11,883 --> 00:13:15,281
For me, this remains a complete mystery.
155
00:13:17,753 --> 00:13:21,832
Without cement, those are rough stones laid side by side
156
00:13:21,857 --> 00:13:23,435
this is breathtaking
157
00:13:23,610 --> 00:13:25,836
these are tremendous achievements!
158
00:13:27,027 --> 00:13:30,308
A razor blade couldn't fit between two blocks
159
00:13:30,333 --> 00:13:32,584
there so precisely laid
160
00:13:33,093 --> 00:13:35,260
It cant have been easy!
161
00:13:37,467 --> 00:13:41,590
any blocks like that, hadn't been put back in place recently
162
00:13:42,082 --> 00:13:45,716
Eric Gonthier, a geologist, has an explanation.
163
00:13:46,003 --> 00:13:47,904
I think they were saving material,
164
00:13:47,929 --> 00:13:50,884
because it had to be transported from a great distance
165
00:13:53,392 --> 00:13:56,752
They did that because they were trying to save on materials
166
00:13:57,705 --> 00:14:02,410
That makes sense, especially since that quarry was 500 miles away.
167
00:14:03,324 --> 00:14:05,790
So how would we do this today?
168
00:14:09,585 --> 00:14:13,692
We would start with a plan, in order to define each piece precisely.
169
00:14:15,447 --> 00:14:17,285
Then we would produce each piece
170
00:14:17,310 --> 00:14:20,645
and afterwards reshape them, to make sure they fit together
171
00:14:24,130 --> 00:14:27,214
So is this how they did it, thousands of years ago?
172
00:14:30,807 --> 00:14:33,955
Here the blocks are irregularly shaped
173
00:14:34,377 --> 00:14:38,287
but there a perfect match with the blocks on the other side of the corridor
174
00:14:38,312 --> 00:14:40,018
A mirror image!
175
00:14:43,511 --> 00:14:46,074
So they cant have been set as they came
176
00:14:46,126 --> 00:14:49,722
using whatever irregularities shapes came from the quarry
177
00:14:50,357 --> 00:14:53,723
they must have been carved into these shapes on purpose.
178
00:14:54,192 --> 00:14:56,364
there must be a reason for it
179
00:15:02,523 --> 00:15:05,135
could it be an ingenious solution
180
00:15:05,295 --> 00:15:07,808
to an age old problem
181
00:15:13,269 --> 00:15:16,296
If you want monument to stand strong
182
00:15:16,471 --> 00:15:18,553
It needs to be heterogeneous
183
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,663
This will keep the wall from collapsing, in case of stress
184
00:15:27,108 --> 00:15:29,066
like in an earthquake.
185
00:15:29,558 --> 00:15:33,074
Since there are no modular blocks, there are no crack lines.
186
00:15:33,315 --> 00:15:37,377
The blocks fit into one another, which makes it a strong wall
187
00:15:46,068 --> 00:15:50,003
So the builders of the Great Pyramid, over 4,000 years ago,
188
00:15:50,107 --> 00:15:53,553
knew how to make their work, earthquake proof
189
00:15:54,077 --> 00:15:56,370
Eric Gonthier sums it up
190
00:15:59,030 --> 00:16:02,284
Objectively from my own observations on the ground
191
00:16:02,340 --> 00:16:05,162
each time I checked a pyramid systematically
192
00:16:05,187 --> 00:16:07,524
Everything had to be reconsidered
193
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,629
maybe there is also a reason the Great Pyramid was built with eight sides,
194
00:16:22,749 --> 00:16:26,106
even though building with four sides is much easier.
195
00:16:31,541 --> 00:16:33,671
back in pre-war Cairo,
196
00:16:33,806 --> 00:16:37,310
A professor of mathematics thought he found the answer.
197
00:16:50,397 --> 00:16:52,838
He found a photograph of the pyramid,
198
00:16:52,863 --> 00:16:57,184
taken one night, during the equinox, by the Royal Air Force
199
00:16:57,433 --> 00:17:01,448
It Shows the south side split in two by the shadows.
200
00:17:09,464 --> 00:17:11,935
This only happens for a few seconds,
201
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,446
twice a year, at the equinox.
202
00:17:15,034 --> 00:17:18,624
The rest of the time, the way the sides of the pyramid is split
203
00:17:18,649 --> 00:17:20,353
into eight, not four,
204
00:17:20,378 --> 00:17:22,432
is invisible to the naked eye.
205
00:17:23,314 --> 00:17:27,029
you dont have to be at the pyramids, at equinox, to verify this.
206
00:17:27,331 --> 00:17:32,265
Here, the Great Pyramid, its shape, its dimensions, and and its exact location
207
00:17:32,290 --> 00:17:35,369
are modeled, by modern computer program.
208
00:17:36,528 --> 00:17:39,915
it confirms Andrรฉ Prochan findings
209
00:17:40,257 --> 00:17:43,523
Some experts believe the bend in the sides of the Great Pyramid
210
00:17:43,548 --> 00:17:45,338
were not planed at all
211
00:17:45,363 --> 00:17:49,101
It just turned out that way, after the outer casing fell off
212
00:17:49,689 --> 00:17:52,663
So for some, this is simply chance
213
00:17:52,871 --> 00:17:54,742
It wasn't made on purpose
214
00:17:54,767 --> 00:17:58,299
it was a very minor accident, due to the monuments structure
215
00:18:13,264 --> 00:18:15,707
But other experts disagree.
216
00:18:16,763 --> 00:18:21,813
Its inconceivable to me that it would break its back, in one direction
217
00:18:21,838 --> 00:18:24,161
and also in another direction at right angles.
218
00:18:24,186 --> 00:18:27,024
To break its self into four, now thats not a natural behavior
219
00:18:27,049 --> 00:18:29,691
you Can you imagine it breaking into two, but not in four.
220
00:18:30,220 --> 00:18:34,005
If that was the case, the building structure would have been all messed up
221
00:18:34,085 --> 00:18:36,050
There would be cracks everywhere.
222
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,103
its certainly intentional!
223
00:18:38,128 --> 00:18:40,788
It was definitely the architect choice
224
00:18:47,089 --> 00:18:50,959
There are some blocks on the north side of the pyramid, that are not bent
225
00:18:50,984 --> 00:18:54,292
these blocks are not laying in their original place,
226
00:18:54,317 --> 00:18:56,472
So they don't prove anything.
227
00:18:58,957 --> 00:19:04,560
these experts all believe that the bends in the pyramid sides, could not have been an accident
228
00:19:08,307 --> 00:19:13,925
If the bends in the pyramid that gave it eight sides, not four, were intentional
229
00:19:13,965 --> 00:19:18,295
maybe it was built like this, in order to signal the equinox.
230
00:19:22,899 --> 00:19:26,724
It's an amazing achievement, considering the primitive tools,
231
00:19:26,749 --> 00:19:29,586
the ancient Egyptians had to build with
232
00:19:39,688 --> 00:19:43,594
close to the Great Pyramid, there is a black bedrock.
233
00:19:43,849 --> 00:19:48,297
Today is ignored ,or used by tourists as a picnic table.
234
00:19:48,869 --> 00:19:53,650
But take a closer look, at these groves, and cuts
235
00:20:15,827 --> 00:20:19,581
Compare this to rocks cut by modern machine tools.
236
00:20:19,701 --> 00:20:21,935
The similarity is staggering
237
00:20:25,357 --> 00:20:29,292
on the other Egyptian sites, there are unexplained holes.
238
00:20:29,841 --> 00:20:33,672
These match the sort of thing we do today, by machine
239
00:20:41,291 --> 00:20:44,960
no one today could do this kind of thing, by hand
240
00:20:52,722 --> 00:20:55,005
These museum pieces are perfect,
241
00:20:55,030 --> 00:20:58,364
even when their made with stones that are harder than steel.
242
00:20:58,658 --> 00:21:00,461
and their not rare
243
00:21:00,747 --> 00:21:04,657
40,000 of them were found beneath one pyramid.
244
00:21:16,503 --> 00:21:19,577
Its very hard to believe, these were all made by hand
245
00:21:19,721 --> 00:21:23,424
and some of the experts, just don't seem that interested
246
00:21:28,195 --> 00:21:32,530
If your asking about the analysis of the inside of the vases
247
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:34,941
we only dealt with the contents
248
00:21:35,268 --> 00:21:39,359
we haven't worked on the techniques used to make the vases.
249
00:21:43,281 --> 00:21:46,940
But the technical perfection of these vases, is astonishing
250
00:21:46,965 --> 00:21:50,031
considering there were made in such primitive times.
251
00:21:57,174 --> 00:21:59,762
500 miles away from the Great Pyramid,
252
00:21:59,787 --> 00:22:03,272
Is the quarry where the red granite to build it, came from
253
00:22:06,779 --> 00:22:10,297
This is an unfinished obelisk, left in the quarry
254
00:22:10,417 --> 00:22:15,566
Is 126 feet tall, and it weighs 1,300 tons.
255
00:22:15,893 --> 00:22:19,795
It's hard to imagine how this could have ever been transported from this site
256
00:22:25,719 --> 00:22:29,290
the Tools used in this quarry is supposed to be simple stones.
257
00:22:33,029 --> 00:22:36,365
Simple stones, used to make holes like these
258
00:22:39,532 --> 00:22:42,313
The work involved would be incredible.
259
00:22:58,358 --> 00:23:01,098
The Colossi of Memnon, here in Egypt,
260
00:23:01,123 --> 00:23:03,415
Are the heaviest statues on the planet.
261
00:23:13,038 --> 00:23:16,670
Is it possible they were erected, using ropes and wood?
262
00:23:17,806 --> 00:23:20,082
I would say yes, the proof is here.
263
00:23:20,178 --> 00:23:22,240
So indeed, we can do.
264
00:23:22,265 --> 00:23:25,556
This says it all, its right here, you just have to look
265
00:23:30,199 --> 00:23:33,380
So it must be possible to make them with simple tools,
266
00:23:33,555 --> 00:23:36,642
because that is all we had at the time they were built.
267
00:23:36,773 --> 00:23:38,830
It is circular argument
268
00:23:38,958 --> 00:23:41,810
and circular arguments get us nowhere.
269
00:23:52,239 --> 00:23:56,088
There are no records of how these amazing structures were built,
270
00:23:56,121 --> 00:23:59,355
but Egyptologists say they are absolutely curtain
271
00:23:59,380 --> 00:24:01,551
that weren't built by machines
272
00:24:08,485 --> 00:24:11,852
The next impossible thing, Egyptologists propose
273
00:24:11,877 --> 00:24:15,699
is that the Great Pyramid was built in only 20 years.
274
00:24:16,318 --> 00:24:19,587
In 1991, an American TV show
275
00:24:19,699 --> 00:24:21,990
tried to duplicate the Great Pyramid,
276
00:24:22,015 --> 00:24:24,509
using the building techniques of the time.
277
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,018
Professor Joseph Davidovits was there
278
00:24:28,441 --> 00:24:31,941
The facade was made with modern manual tools.
279
00:24:34,220 --> 00:24:38,746
they were made with butt joints, 1 cm joints
280
00:24:40,826 --> 00:24:44,946
to haul a stone 5 feet, took them about 10 hours
281
00:24:45,407 --> 00:24:48,429
they told me: "What you see at the beginning!"
282
00:24:48,454 --> 00:24:53,576
It took some time, but when they get experienced, they worked much faster.
283
00:25:00,338 --> 00:25:02,286
this was a fiasco
284
00:25:02,390 --> 00:25:07,080
and this fiasco has become a touchstone in the books of Egyptology
285
00:25:13,033 --> 00:25:17,572
the Experts can't agree about how the great pyramid was built.
286
00:25:20,279 --> 00:25:22,761
We need to look further.
287
00:25:29,673 --> 00:25:33,188
These are the most uncanny hieroglyphics ever seen
288
00:25:33,483 --> 00:25:36,863
This picture is genuine, and hasn't been retouched.
289
00:25:45,476 --> 00:25:50,163
You might believe these hieroglyphics prove the existence of sophisticated technology
290
00:25:50,188 --> 00:25:51,750
in ancient Egypt.
291
00:25:52,020 --> 00:25:54,906
Mystics might see them as a sign from God.
292
00:25:56,828 --> 00:26:00,118
But in fact, there a startling coincidence.
293
00:26:01,888 --> 00:26:04,380
These were two overlaid pharaohs names
294
00:26:04,405 --> 00:26:06,611
Seti and his son Ramses II.
295
00:26:06,730 --> 00:26:09,357
As time when by, and the plaster came off
296
00:26:09,382 --> 00:26:11,830
These pictures were created by accident.
297
00:26:11,855 --> 00:26:14,328
There's no technology here.
298
00:26:23,734 --> 00:26:26,504
you have to be careful, of what you believe
299
00:26:30,185 --> 00:26:32,798
Whenever they come across a strange artifact
300
00:26:32,941 --> 00:26:35,701
The archaeologists say it must be religious.
301
00:26:36,075 --> 00:26:37,948
So here, apparently,
302
00:26:37,973 --> 00:26:40,196
are some sacrificial basins
303
00:26:42,514 --> 00:26:44,217
a religious alter
304
00:26:47,244 --> 00:26:49,699
and a lotus flower vase
305
00:26:53,549 --> 00:26:55,736
This ones in the Cairo museum
306
00:26:56,578 --> 00:26:58,824
Its a lotus flower vase
307
00:26:59,005 --> 00:27:00,703
you don't remember? - No!
308
00:27:00,766 --> 00:27:02,195
No, I don't
309
00:27:08,602 --> 00:27:12,106
Many experts would argue theres nothing extraordinary here
310
00:27:17,853 --> 00:27:20,099
they might think of something as a sculpture
311
00:27:20,185 --> 00:27:21,994
or religious totem,
312
00:27:22,152 --> 00:27:25,764
where as an engineers or scientists would recognizes it as piece of a machine
313
00:27:25,789 --> 00:27:27,502
I just beg the archaeologists:
314
00:27:27,527 --> 00:27:30,151
Please let engineers, let scientists, come in
315
00:27:30,326 --> 00:27:33,589
and help you analyze, what the functions of these devices are
316
00:27:39,884 --> 00:27:44,678
Christopher Dunn is an engineer, who makes high-precision machines.
317
00:27:45,305 --> 00:27:47,839
He studied huge statues at Luxor.
318
00:27:55,854 --> 00:28:00,020
the Ramses statues at Luxor are incredible in their design
319
00:28:00,045 --> 00:28:02,479
their incredible in their execution.
320
00:28:02,504 --> 00:28:04,553
These are very very complex shapes,
321
00:28:04,578 --> 00:28:07,821
and so we going to look at, just how complex are they
322
00:28:09,274 --> 00:28:13,598
Chris Dunn analyzed the statue of Ramses the 2nds face
323
00:28:13,766 --> 00:28:16,637
and found it was completely symmetrical.
324
00:28:19,947 --> 00:28:24,118
What we see is that this jaw line, and this jaw line
325
00:28:24,143 --> 00:28:25,479
are identical.
326
00:28:25,558 --> 00:28:27,664
In fact that is, unbelievable
327
00:28:28,713 --> 00:28:31,969
To create the condition where one side matches the other
328
00:28:31,994 --> 00:28:34,448
they had to of had, some system of measure
329
00:28:34,473 --> 00:28:40,117
to be able to make sure that they were cutting the material properly
330
00:28:40,387 --> 00:28:43,665
and that they were achieving the geometry that they desired
331
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,037
This is not, the result of somebody
332
00:28:47,220 --> 00:28:49,728
going at a piece of granite, with a chisel
333
00:28:49,753 --> 00:28:52,097
and chiseling a face out, and saying:
334
00:28:52,122 --> 00:28:54,191
Ok, that looks like a human face!
335
00:28:54,216 --> 00:28:57,403
this kind of conditions dose not happen by accident
336
00:28:59,015 --> 00:29:02,364
As we see, we can describe a circle
337
00:29:02,637 --> 00:29:06,628
But actually conforms to the outline of the face
338
00:29:06,857 --> 00:29:11,771
But now you've got to remember, that the circle, is in 2D
339
00:29:12,279 --> 00:29:16,464
but the jaw line is coming forward in 3D
340
00:29:16,552 --> 00:29:20,964
So it's a very complex geometry, and the same on the other side.
341
00:29:21,020 --> 00:29:24,003
And now, we'll start to look at the other features of the face:
342
00:29:24,028 --> 00:29:28,035
the eyebrows, lower eyelids, upper eyelids, the lips
343
00:29:28,790 --> 00:29:29,738
and ...
344
00:29:30,643 --> 00:29:32,670
the proximate curve to the mouth.
345
00:29:34,432 --> 00:29:36,688
We can use circles again
346
00:29:37,054 --> 00:29:39,923
to describe, those features.
347
00:29:40,661 --> 00:29:43,944
And all the circles that they used here, are the same diameter.
348
00:29:46,294 --> 00:29:50,666
Other heads also, have the same geometric shape
349
00:29:50,770 --> 00:29:54,375
Even with modern tools, this would be incredibly difficult.
350
00:29:55,336 --> 00:29:57,205
What was guiding this tool
351
00:29:57,698 --> 00:30:02,528
Because the human hand is not that precise, so it had to of had assistance
352
00:30:02,594 --> 00:30:06,267
and today we have mechanical assistance, to guide tools
353
00:30:06,379 --> 00:30:09,204
to cut complex shapes, and contours
354
00:30:09,229 --> 00:30:14,109
and what I present in, telling you about the precision of the objects is
355
00:30:14,134 --> 00:30:18,624
is to present the facts, as engineer, what i measured
356
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,826
in terms of who did it, why they did it, and when it was done
357
00:30:24,176 --> 00:30:27,599
arr, another specialist need to answer those questions.
358
00:30:29,449 --> 00:30:31,351
When people visit Egypt
359
00:30:31,376 --> 00:30:36,270
when they discover and look very carefully at the relief, the sculptures and the hieroglyphics,
360
00:30:36,532 --> 00:30:41,397
they go "Wow" .how did they do that, when they didn't have our machines?
361
00:30:41,509 --> 00:30:43,627
But We know the instruments they did use. (Bullshit)
362
00:30:43,731 --> 00:30:48,177
They used abrasive tools, working very slowly, but surely
363
00:30:50,043 --> 00:30:54,441
the harder the material was to work, like granite, for example,
364
00:30:54,791 --> 00:30:59,482
the more the stone cutter, the chiseler, the carver, the sculptor
365
00:30:59,507 --> 00:31:01,270
perfected his craft
366
00:31:01,668 --> 00:31:06,693
this was part of the relationship, between the realm of man, and the realm of the gods.
367
00:31:09,615 --> 00:31:13,874
Its impossible to believe, that however careful the craftsman work.
368
00:31:14,009 --> 00:31:15,827
however slowly they work
369
00:31:15,852 --> 00:31:20,533
that they could achieved such astonishing results, without complex tools.
370
00:31:24,448 --> 00:31:27,170
It's hard to see how they were built by hand
371
00:31:27,220 --> 00:31:30,047
using only chisels, and lumps of rock.
372
00:31:41,587 --> 00:31:45,892
Nobody yet, can determine, what tools were used.
373
00:31:45,917 --> 00:31:50,694
We can theorize, but essentially when theorizing.
374
00:31:50,719 --> 00:31:53,705
we have to show, we have to be able to demonstrate
375
00:31:56,056 --> 00:31:58,619
Egyptologists still insist
376
00:31:58,644 --> 00:32:01,357
all the statues, temples, and pyramids
377
00:32:01,464 --> 00:32:04,534
were built with chisels, ropes and stones.
378
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,974
Egypt isn't the only place in the world,
379
00:32:11,999 --> 00:32:15,441
where irregular stones were used in ancient buildings.
380
00:32:17,632 --> 00:32:20,525
There are 9 other ancient sites around the planet,
381
00:32:20,613 --> 00:32:23,765
where we see this technique, has been used
382
00:32:28,456 --> 00:32:30,345
To solve this mystery,
383
00:32:30,370 --> 00:32:33,984
we must travel thousands of miles, across the world
384
00:32:34,278 --> 00:32:36,581
to Easter Island.
385
00:32:40,725 --> 00:32:44,084
Easter Island, is only 15 miles long.
386
00:32:44,283 --> 00:32:48,179
It is one of the most isolated and beautiful places in the world.
387
00:33:08,804 --> 00:33:13,295
These statues, called moai, are carved in volcanic rock.
388
00:33:13,995 --> 00:33:18,354
Experts believe they were carved by descendants of a group of Polynesians,
389
00:33:18,405 --> 00:33:25,259
who settled here, after a 2500 mile ocean crossing, in tiny canoes.
390
00:33:33,841 --> 00:33:35,739
I can date it geologically
391
00:33:35,811 --> 00:33:39,390
I will find some granite, and put it in geological context
392
00:33:39,645 --> 00:33:42,531
from there I will say it took as many millions
393
00:33:42,556 --> 00:33:46,122
and even in this case, billion years to get this granite.
394
00:33:46,495 --> 00:33:49,017
My job as a geologist, ends there!
395
00:33:51,219 --> 00:33:53,356
So we can date the age of the rock
396
00:33:53,428 --> 00:33:56,601
but we can not tell, when it was carved.
397
00:33:56,816 --> 00:33:58,742
This is crucial
398
00:33:59,862 --> 00:34:02,420
here's the oldest wall in the island.
399
00:34:02,571 --> 00:34:06,112
Originally it was a pedestal, carrying the statues.
400
00:34:06,406 --> 00:34:11,083
the irregularly shaped building blocks, are just like the blocks, in ancient Egypt.
401
00:34:22,012 --> 00:34:24,237
This is the biggest moai.
402
00:34:24,404 --> 00:34:28,483
Its unfinished, it weighs 250 tons.
403
00:34:36,029 --> 00:34:40,308
There are similarities between this quarry, and the one in Egypt.
404
00:34:59,051 --> 00:35:03,468
No one can explain, how these immensely heavy statues were quarried
405
00:35:03,493 --> 00:35:05,736
and transported across the island.
406
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,091
the central Moai weighs over 60 tons
407
00:35:13,235 --> 00:35:16,250
and sits 9 miles away from the quarry.
408
00:35:20,576 --> 00:35:24,294
Experts say they were rolled across the island on tree trunks.
409
00:35:24,461 --> 00:35:26,636
but thats very hard to believe.
410
00:35:26,661 --> 00:35:29,875
No on has ever been able to duplicate it.
411
00:35:38,329 --> 00:35:42,004
All the Moai face inland, except these ones
412
00:35:42,497 --> 00:35:45,915
they gaze out to sea, facing due west
413
00:35:46,304 --> 00:35:50,367
The seven pairs of eyes, are watches the horizon of the sunset,
414
00:35:50,392 --> 00:35:52,003
at the equinox.
415
00:35:53,466 --> 00:35:57,001
There is, mysterious writing on the rocks at Easter Island
416
00:35:57,026 --> 00:35:59,238
writing no one can read.
417
00:35:59,358 --> 00:36:04,348
Its strikingly similar to writing found in the ancient site, of Mohenjo Daro
418
00:36:04,507 --> 00:36:06,106
in Pakistan.
419
00:36:06,131 --> 00:36:08,406
could there possibly be a connection
420
00:36:08,693 --> 00:36:12,586
Mohenjo Daro is 12,500 miles away.
421
00:36:13,428 --> 00:36:17,447
Archaeologists argue, that the building styles are same
422
00:36:17,598 --> 00:36:20,542
because the builders were solving the same problems.
423
00:36:20,608 --> 00:36:23,963
after all, even though they don't talk to each other
424
00:36:24,098 --> 00:36:27,608
all the beavers in the world, build the same dams
425
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:42,521
But the mysteries of Easter Island, remain unsolved.
426
00:36:47,424 --> 00:36:51,130
Why did the Polynesians built these extraordinary statues ?
427
00:36:51,749 --> 00:36:54,193
These faces don't look Polynesian.
428
00:36:54,456 --> 00:36:57,947
They have aquiline noses, thin lips, high forehead,
429
00:36:58,058 --> 00:37:00,781
beards and extraordinary hands.
430
00:37:02,781 --> 00:37:07,898
Easter Island statues, look similar to figures you might find in Peru.
431
00:37:08,827 --> 00:37:12,700
In those two sites, the stone work developed amazingly
432
00:37:12,725 --> 00:37:15,337
and Sacsayhuaman, as well as Vinapu,
433
00:37:15,362 --> 00:37:18,201
contain some of the greatest examples.
434
00:37:19,162 --> 00:37:22,347
But theres is no way I can say who influenced who
435
00:37:22,372 --> 00:37:25,288
or whether we've been swayed by the Inca people
436
00:37:27,035 --> 00:37:31,496
Our quest is about to take us, hundreds of miles across the ocean,
437
00:37:31,735 --> 00:37:34,718
To the magnificent coast of Peru.
438
00:37:53,058 --> 00:37:58,428
This extraordinary Peruvian carving, is 549 feet long
439
00:37:58,926 --> 00:38:02,313
and is precisely oriented, north to south.
440
00:38:03,114 --> 00:38:07,744
But who carved it, when it was carved, or why?
441
00:38:07,935 --> 00:38:09,135
No one knows!
442
00:38:21,968 --> 00:38:27,870
the Nazca Plateau, in the interior of Peru, was discovered in 1926.
443
00:38:28,678 --> 00:38:32,339
Archaeologists believe these geoglife or drawings on the ground
444
00:38:32,364 --> 00:38:38,522
were made by the Nazca civilization, between 500 BC and 750 AD
445
00:38:39,142 --> 00:38:42,025
100 m length
446
00:38:43,490 --> 00:38:46,106
123 m length
447
00:38:47,397 --> 00:38:49,967
50 m length
448
00:38:51,376 --> 00:38:54,110
57 m length
449
00:39:07,893 --> 00:39:12,346
The longest of these perfectly straight lines stretches 13 miles
450
00:39:12,735 --> 00:39:15,716
Those tiny trucks, on the Pan-American highway,
451
00:39:15,756 --> 00:39:17,997
give you a sense of scale
452
00:39:19,569 --> 00:39:22,544
From The ground, no drawings are visible,
453
00:39:22,688 --> 00:39:25,051
not even from the neighboring hills.
454
00:39:25,139 --> 00:39:27,726
they Can only be seen from the sky.
455
00:39:28,456 --> 00:39:29,996
So what are they for?
456
00:39:30,021 --> 00:39:33,388
they were probably trails, or they were used as processions
457
00:39:33,611 --> 00:39:37,624
As archaeologists say, those lines were drawn to walk on.
458
00:39:38,141 --> 00:39:41,059
Surely theres more going on here than that?
459
00:39:42,583 --> 00:39:45,394
Not far from Nazca a pyramid has been discovered
460
00:39:45,616 --> 00:39:47,520
There may be 40 or more of them
461
00:39:47,545 --> 00:39:51,474
but the site hasn't been properly excavated yet, due to lack of funds.
462
00:39:52,054 --> 00:39:55,105
And thats not the only thing Peru shares with Egypt
463
00:39:55,130 --> 00:39:57,654
There are mummies here, and misshapen skulls
464
00:39:57,679 --> 00:40:01,137
similar to the skull of Akhenaten, the Egyptian pharaoh.
465
00:40:08,796 --> 00:40:12,702
In Cuzco, theres is a giant wall, built by the Incas,
466
00:40:12,853 --> 00:40:16,263
irregular blocks with the same observed in Egypt.
467
00:40:24,237 --> 00:40:27,583
We see the same thing again at the Sacsayhuaman site:
468
00:40:27,869 --> 00:40:29,948
the irregular construction technique,
469
00:40:29,973 --> 00:40:33,204
that makes these buildings withstand earthquakes.
470
00:40:36,665 --> 00:40:39,133
We shouldn't underestimate how much effort is involved,
471
00:40:39,158 --> 00:40:41,844
in preparing the surfaces of each of the blocks
472
00:40:44,087 --> 00:40:49,033
despite the fact that Peru is a place where earthquakes are, very very common,
473
00:40:49,176 --> 00:40:54,168
many many structures, built far later, with modern technology
474
00:40:54,447 --> 00:40:57,566
vanish into dust, and these stones are still standing.
475
00:40:57,591 --> 00:41:02,694
If you plot them on the map, this site with Cuzco and another sacred site, Qenqo,
476
00:41:02,830 --> 00:41:04,846
form a perfect triangle.
477
00:41:05,347 --> 00:41:07,108
I can not explain with certainty,
478
00:41:07,133 --> 00:41:10,402
Why these distances, and hectometers or kilometers,
479
00:41:10,427 --> 00:41:12,495
match up with other sites in the world.
480
00:41:16,781 --> 00:41:19,720
But the proof is there, so there might be a reason.
481
00:41:26,630 --> 00:41:32,077
throughout Peru, ancient sites like these, are filled with spectacular constructions
482
00:41:32,395 --> 00:41:34,716
just lifting these rocks up a slope like this
483
00:41:34,741 --> 00:41:36,974
was a real challenge.
484
00:41:38,465 --> 00:41:41,610
Now days we lift stones of ten tons,
485
00:41:41,833 --> 00:41:46,836
to a reach of maybe 50 meters, and to a height of 100 meters
486
00:41:46,861 --> 00:41:51,476
with very large cranes, buts I mean thats a, huge piece of contemporary technological
487
00:41:52,437 --> 00:41:56,481
What's amazing about is, that we couldn't do it now
488
00:41:56,958 --> 00:41:58,773
And this was 500 years ago!
489
00:41:58,798 --> 00:42:00,668
If you Imagine the Egyptians!
490
00:42:08,945 --> 00:42:10,806
When you visit Machu Picchu,
491
00:42:10,831 --> 00:42:14,683
we get a sense of how sophisticated the Andean civilization was.
492
00:42:16,707 --> 00:42:20,107
Most of the population, the Cuzco valleys inhabitants
493
00:42:20,156 --> 00:42:22,706
didn't know what Machu Picchu was about
494
00:42:26,421 --> 00:42:29,513
These beautiful crafted walls, in Machu Picchu,
495
00:42:29,538 --> 00:42:33,586
are striking like the buildings that surround the Great Pyramid in Giza.
496
00:42:34,269 --> 00:42:37,435
here too we see the symmetry in the building style.
497
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,341
This is got to be more than a coincidence.
498
00:42:40,500 --> 00:42:44,827
In all these ancient sites, we find the same building techniques,
499
00:42:44,954 --> 00:42:46,944
same huge scale of building
500
00:42:46,969 --> 00:42:50,518
and the same precise orientation, with the compass
501
00:42:50,741 --> 00:42:52,273
Just look!
502
00:43:31,412 --> 00:43:34,599
this is where the comparison with beavers, falls through
503
00:43:37,457 --> 00:43:39,830
because even if they built the same dams,
504
00:43:39,910 --> 00:43:43,302
they don't line them up, over thousands of miles
505
00:43:43,628 --> 00:43:46,715
If you were Charles Darwin and you were thinking about the history of evolution
506
00:43:46,740 --> 00:43:49,263
you would look at these examples,
507
00:43:49,288 --> 00:43:51,554
of stone work and masonry
508
00:43:51,579 --> 00:43:55,127
and you would say, either its one evolutionary stream
509
00:43:55,818 --> 00:43:57,387
the same stream
510
00:43:57,641 --> 00:44:01,033
in which case these people all knew about each others work
511
00:44:01,058 --> 00:44:03,251
even though they were separated by thousands of years,
512
00:44:03,307 --> 00:44:07,634
or you would say, there are 4 parallel streams of evolution going on
513
00:44:08,127 --> 00:44:10,961
Since homo sapiens are the same all over the world,
514
00:44:10,986 --> 00:44:13,515
obviously when we face the same problems,
515
00:44:13,540 --> 00:44:16,095
we will come up, with the same answers.
516
00:44:16,371 --> 00:44:20,163
To get the same answer, in four parallel streams,
517
00:44:20,188 --> 00:44:23,519
to me, seems very unlikely.
518
00:44:23,544 --> 00:44:26,641
It's hard to imagine, that the Incas went anywhere near Egypt.
519
00:44:26,666 --> 00:44:28,909
I find that a bit hard to believe!
520
00:44:30,132 --> 00:44:33,215
Even if these ancient people did communicate
521
00:44:33,303 --> 00:44:37,310
It wouldn't explain why the site's are on the same straight line
522
00:44:37,692 --> 00:44:42,552
and why that line, is at an angel exactly 30 degrees to the equator.
523
00:44:51,022 --> 00:44:53,719
And the mystery doesn't end there!
524
00:44:53,918 --> 00:44:56,507
In Mexico, just like in Giza,
525
00:44:56,532 --> 00:44:58,762
There are three main pyramids.
526
00:45:01,128 --> 00:45:03,175
They are the Sun Pyramid,
527
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:04,770
The Moon Pyramid
528
00:45:04,852 --> 00:45:07,258
and the Pyramid of the feathered Snake
529
00:45:16,671 --> 00:45:18,508
And just like in Giza,
530
00:45:18,573 --> 00:45:21,551
The main pyramid is precisely aligned
531
00:45:22,932 --> 00:45:27,995
What's amazing, is that the sun Pyramid, like many other constructions like it
532
00:45:28,020 --> 00:45:33,955
were built to indicate precisely, the phenomenon that we call the equinox.
533
00:45:41,551 --> 00:45:44,286
Even in China there are ancient pyramids.
534
00:45:44,795 --> 00:45:47,511
These pyramids are made of clay and dirt
535
00:45:47,766 --> 00:45:50,258
We see them in these aerial photographs,
536
00:45:50,386 --> 00:45:52,456
but its impossible to get to visit them
537
00:45:52,499 --> 00:45:55,561
because the Chinese authorities keep them under wraps
538
00:45:56,561 --> 00:45:58,896
155 meters
539
00:45:59,138 --> 00:46:02,156
160 meters
540
00:46:06,152 --> 00:46:09,951
230 meters
541
00:46:15,506 --> 00:46:17,435
340 meters
542
00:46:17,460 --> 00:46:20,014
There are hundreds of these Chinese pyramids,
543
00:46:20,039 --> 00:46:22,952
but very few Westerners, have ever seen them
544
00:46:24,309 --> 00:46:27,201
We are very fortunate that this footage exists.
545
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:36,559
Its one of our only chances, to take a look at the Chinese pyramids.
546
00:46:42,903 --> 00:46:46,269
I think I'm the only one to have been granted the right to shoot
547
00:46:46,294 --> 00:46:48,800
take pictures and climb on those pyramids,
548
00:46:48,825 --> 00:46:50,710
by the Chinese government.
549
00:46:54,956 --> 00:46:57,135
That's why I felt it was my duty,
550
00:46:57,160 --> 00:47:00,313
to document there existence for the whole world.
551
00:47:00,450 --> 00:47:02,744
Again, the mystery deepens!
552
00:47:10,323 --> 00:47:14,014
Its senseless to try to look for ties or cultural exchange
553
00:47:14,039 --> 00:47:17,300
between different times and different places of civilizations
554
00:47:19,308 --> 00:47:22,340
Egypt developed way before Mexico!
555
00:47:22,412 --> 00:47:28,209
There was no relationship whats-so-ever between North Africa, and this part of America.
556
00:47:31,416 --> 00:47:35,552
It is odd, that Egypt, who's writing is hieroglyphics,
557
00:47:35,577 --> 00:47:39,025
China, whose characters are close to hieroglyphics
558
00:47:39,050 --> 00:47:40,948
and even more complex
559
00:47:40,973 --> 00:47:45,078
or the Mayan culture, which also has a hieroglyphics kind of writing,
560
00:47:45,309 --> 00:47:48,631
built that kind of, "signal monument"
561
00:47:49,211 --> 00:47:51,713
but it doesn't work for Mesopotamia.
562
00:47:51,889 --> 00:47:53,789
So it's just a coincidence!
563
00:47:53,814 --> 00:47:57,783
After all most writings start with an expression of reality.
564
00:47:59,125 --> 00:48:01,462
However much the experts deny it
565
00:48:01,534 --> 00:48:05,380
The similarities between all these ancient sites, are striking.
566
00:48:06,722 --> 00:48:08,527
Hieroglyphic writing
567
00:48:09,594 --> 00:48:11,210
mummified bodies
568
00:48:12,333 --> 00:48:14,595
great astrological skills
569
00:48:16,533 --> 00:48:19,354
earthquake proof construction techniques.
570
00:48:53,424 --> 00:48:56,352
If all these sites were built in different times,
571
00:48:56,377 --> 00:48:58,805
they can't have been built by the same people.
572
00:48:59,242 --> 00:49:01,621
But monuments can't be dated,
573
00:49:01,709 --> 00:49:04,670
only the organic remains found nearby.
574
00:49:05,108 --> 00:49:08,382
So did the Incas really built Machu Picchu?
575
00:49:08,589 --> 00:49:11,622
Did the Egyptians really built the pyramids?
576
00:49:15,043 --> 00:49:16,983
It is entirely possible
577
00:49:17,008 --> 00:49:20,429
These smooth sided Pyramids, were second-hand monuments
578
00:49:20,454 --> 00:49:23,228
that were re-used by the Egyptians.
579
00:49:23,958 --> 00:49:27,829
I'm a scientist, so its very difficult for me to say that
580
00:49:46,567 --> 00:49:49,765
The Chinese are planting trees on their pyramids.
581
00:49:49,972 --> 00:49:52,128
When these disappear under Forrest
582
00:49:52,153 --> 00:49:55,407
no one will ever be able to solve their mystery.
583
00:50:01,171 --> 00:50:03,735
We need to look harder at these questions
584
00:50:03,854 --> 00:50:06,782
if were ever going to find the real answers.
585
00:50:07,615 --> 00:50:10,352
Any material that mankind hasn't managed to invent is
586
00:50:10,377 --> 00:50:13,538
a single material which lasts as well, as this stuff
587
00:50:13,674 --> 00:50:16,340
It's amazing, but we haven't done it yet!
588
00:50:21,531 --> 00:50:24,607
These ancient sites are full of questions and mysteries
589
00:50:24,632 --> 00:50:27,785
that conventional archeology, can not answer.
590
00:50:28,043 --> 00:50:31,035
And anyone who steps away from the usual explanations
591
00:50:31,060 --> 00:50:33,064
is dismissed as a crank
592
00:50:33,089 --> 00:50:35,370
But the question remain
593
00:50:54,624 --> 00:50:57,980
Because rock carving, can not be accurately dated
594
00:50:58,005 --> 00:51:00,180
there are no definitive answers.
595
00:51:02,982 --> 00:51:05,134
If we want to solve these mysteries,
596
00:51:05,159 --> 00:51:07,569
we need to keep an open mind
597
00:51:25,907 --> 00:51:31,161
the Great Pyramid at Giza, is in the center of all these ancient sites.
598
00:51:37,087 --> 00:51:39,691
maybe Egypt holds the answers.
599
00:51:43,609 --> 00:51:46,234
Its time to go back to the pyramids,
600
00:51:46,314 --> 00:51:49,075
remembering what Sherlock Holmes taught us
601
00:51:49,173 --> 00:51:51,315
"When you have eliminated the impossible,
602
00:51:51,572 --> 00:51:54,951
whatever remains, however improbable
603
00:51:54,976 --> 00:51:56,906
"MUST BE THE TRUTH"
604
00:52:01,502 --> 00:52:05,287
In Egypt, a researcher who wished to remain anonymous
605
00:52:05,827 --> 00:52:08,012
gave us a trail to follow
606
00:52:21,689 --> 00:52:23,665
It all started in Egypt,
607
00:52:23,768 --> 00:52:25,466
not far from Giza,
608
00:52:25,491 --> 00:52:27,516
at the foot of Red Pyramid,
609
00:52:27,541 --> 00:52:31,035
ascribed to Sneferu, Cheops father
610
00:52:32,671 --> 00:52:36,309
This is "The pyramidion" the Red Pyramids cap
611
00:52:36,642 --> 00:52:42,222
It was discovered by the German Egyptologist Rainer Stadelmann in 1993.
612
00:52:43,064 --> 00:52:45,803
These shots were taken in 2005,
613
00:52:46,066 --> 00:52:50,064
when "The pyramidion" measure exactly one meter in hight
614
00:52:50,246 --> 00:52:55,708
we assembled it and its dimensions were precisely one meter, by 1.57 meters.
615
00:52:56,122 --> 00:52:59,615
and surprising, it was also precisely one meter in high.
616
00:53:02,474 --> 00:53:06,009
the Egyptians knew many things, that we have inherited,
617
00:53:06,192 --> 00:53:08,313
but not the metric system of course
618
00:53:08,616 --> 00:53:12,029
We can think that the estimate was roughly two cubits
619
00:53:12,054 --> 00:53:14,688
that was enough for the stone cutter
620
00:53:15,053 --> 00:53:17,116
Was this shear chance?
621
00:53:17,236 --> 00:53:19,780
it seems a remarkable coincidence.
622
00:53:26,328 --> 00:53:30,341
But in 2008, when we returned to the pyramids,
623
00:53:30,747 --> 00:53:33,042
The "Pyramidion" had changed.
624
00:53:36,947 --> 00:53:38,916
We are intrigued,
625
00:53:38,941 --> 00:53:41,079
because here we have, lets be honest.
626
00:53:41,104 --> 00:53:44,621
a perversion of the real form and function of this object.
627
00:53:44,987 --> 00:53:48,017
There were no grounds for this object to take this shape
628
00:53:48,359 --> 00:53:50,506
Of course they invented it!
629
00:53:50,531 --> 00:53:51,644
Why?
630
00:53:51,669 --> 00:53:53,886
We have absolutely no idea.
631
00:53:55,077 --> 00:53:58,769
This matters because the dimensions of the original "pyramidion"
632
00:53:58,794 --> 00:54:03,428
provide a crucial clue to understand, the mystery of the pyramids.
633
00:54:07,715 --> 00:54:11,230
Much has been written over the centuries about the Great Pyramid.
634
00:54:25,839 --> 00:54:28,407
The Ancient Roman, Pliny the Elder,
635
00:54:28,432 --> 00:54:31,771
Tells of arguments about who built the Great Pyramid
636
00:54:32,129 --> 00:54:36,626
But of all the accounts that Pliny writes about, only one has survived.
637
00:54:36,817 --> 00:54:39,534
Herodotus's account, is the only one we have left
638
00:54:39,559 --> 00:54:42,277
that tells us about the building of the Great Pyramid.
639
00:54:42,580 --> 00:54:45,987
it shows, how little we really know
640
00:54:54,701 --> 00:54:57,618
In 1859, an Englishman, John Taylor,
641
00:54:57,643 --> 00:55:01,949
discovered if you divide this dimension, by this one , you got Pi,
642
00:55:01,974 --> 00:55:03,601
the mathematical formula.
643
00:55:03,626 --> 00:55:06,046
This caused controversy at the time.
644
00:55:06,071 --> 00:55:10,492
Some people thought it was an accident, others saw the hand of god at work.
645
00:55:10,556 --> 00:55:15,289
could it be coincidence, that these particular dimensions give us Pi,
646
00:55:15,409 --> 00:55:19,683
one of the building blocks of mathematics, science and Engineering?
647
00:55:26,231 --> 00:55:28,939
I ask my anonymous Egyptian researcher
648
00:55:28,964 --> 00:55:32,140
if he could explain why these dimensions were significant.
649
00:55:32,165 --> 00:55:36,628
because the half perimeter is the biggest horizontal visible dimension
650
00:55:36,748 --> 00:55:41,056
and its height, is the biggest vertical invisible dimension
651
00:55:44,107 --> 00:55:47,566
Pi is not the only significant number in the Great Pyramid.
652
00:55:47,678 --> 00:55:50,738
If we look at the dimensions of the various parts of the pyramid
653
00:55:50,810 --> 00:55:53,632
each part can be multiplied by a hole number
654
00:55:53,657 --> 00:55:55,667
to give the total height.
655
00:56:02,263 --> 00:56:06,011
the surface of the four sides, divided by surface of the base
656
00:56:06,036 --> 00:56:08,252
equals the famous golden number,
657
00:56:08,483 --> 00:56:12,080
one of the key principles of aesthetics and design.
658
00:56:15,108 --> 00:56:17,062
the golden number is unique.
659
00:56:20,849 --> 00:56:23,214
These equations work with the golden number
660
00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:25,385
and only the golden number.
661
00:56:36,041 --> 00:56:39,547
The golden number occurs, all over the natural world
662
00:56:39,635 --> 00:56:41,226
in the shapes of plants,
663
00:56:41,274 --> 00:56:42,581
in astrology,
664
00:56:42,606 --> 00:56:44,770
the proportions of the human form
665
00:56:44,922 --> 00:56:47,367
In the proportions of great art
666
00:56:51,891 --> 00:56:55,161
The golden number appears to be a constant in the universe.
667
00:57:01,938 --> 00:57:05,153
by Dividing the half perimeter by the total height
668
00:57:05,178 --> 00:57:07,806
we get the golden number squared.
669
00:57:09,949 --> 00:57:14,703
and the golden number occurs again and again, in the Great Pyramid.
670
00:57:28,291 --> 00:57:30,703
Official dimensions of the Great Pyramid
671
00:57:30,778 --> 00:57:34,504
are 440 by 280 cubits,
672
00:57:34,846 --> 00:57:38,197
A cubit is an Egyptian unit of measurement.
673
00:57:40,333 --> 00:57:43,619
There are very few ancient Egyptian measuring tools left
674
00:57:43,644 --> 00:57:45,315
and vary in length,
675
00:57:45,340 --> 00:57:50,290
So experts deduced how long the cubit was from the dimensions of the Great Pyramid
676
00:57:50,839 --> 00:57:59,859
In 1925, the archaeologists agreed to call a cubit, 52 centimeters, 3 millimeters, and 6 tenths of a millimeter
677
00:58:06,478 --> 00:58:08,825
it Seems ridiculously precise,
678
00:58:08,850 --> 00:58:12,370
like measuring the content of a swimming pool with a jug
679
00:58:19,338 --> 00:58:22,986
But that measurement become standard for all the experts.
680
00:58:33,768 --> 00:58:37,356
In Cheops, we can tell, from the size rooms,
681
00:58:37,381 --> 00:58:41,081
that the cubit is 52.35 cm
682
00:58:43,137 --> 00:58:45,404
Today things have changed!
683
00:58:45,857 --> 00:58:48,186
We found a great number of cubits,
684
00:58:48,211 --> 00:58:50,335
which was the measurement tool itself
685
00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:55,391
but their values range rather loosely between 52 and 53 cm.
686
00:58:55,828 --> 00:59:00,372
To use those changing values, to draw conclusions on irrational numbers
687
00:59:00,397 --> 00:59:03,397
Sounds to me, very risky.
688
00:59:05,572 --> 00:59:10,685
why don't experts today, want to give a precise measure to the cubit anymore?
689
00:59:22,750 --> 00:59:24,758
maybe because they feel uncomfortable
690
00:59:24,783 --> 00:59:27,796
admitting that the pyramids were built, with such precision.
691
00:59:27,836 --> 00:59:29,986
in these primitive times.
692
00:59:36,288 --> 00:59:41,427
Ancient builders were working with a precision that modern architects would envy.
693
00:59:47,031 --> 00:59:49,642
Their achievements have never been bettered
694
00:59:53,254 --> 00:59:58,336
These are tools that are necessary to determine the precision on the artifacts.
695
00:59:58,361 --> 01:00:02,780
These are modern tools, these tools do not exist in the archaeological record.
696
01:00:04,837 --> 01:00:09,977
The builders of the Pyramid, were working with a precision that they didn't have the tools to check
697
01:00:10,232 --> 01:00:12,413
Its just like the statue at Luxor,
698
01:00:12,438 --> 01:00:17,401
which has a perfect symmetry, only modern methods can measure
699
01:00:17,743 --> 01:00:20,645
How on earth did the ancient Egyptians do it?
700
01:00:32,564 --> 01:00:35,480
If we draw a circle with a diameter of one
701
01:00:35,505 --> 01:00:41,339
then this circles circumference equals PI or 3.1416
702
01:00:42,752 --> 01:00:47,419
Divide this length by 6 and we get 0.5236,
703
01:00:47,563 --> 01:00:50,600
A number surprising close to the cubits length.
704
01:00:51,140 --> 01:00:55,243
This could be how the pyramid builders chose their cubit
705
01:01:07,994 --> 01:01:13,442
If you draw a square, you can imagine all sorts of different heights of pyramids on it
706
01:01:17,823 --> 01:01:21,552
Now draw a circle with the same length as the square,
707
01:01:21,728 --> 01:01:26,875
measured the radius of that circle, this is the height of the Great Pyramid.
708
01:01:29,860 --> 01:01:34,746
Thats why the Great Pyramid contains both Pi, and the golden number
709
01:01:36,445 --> 01:01:39,069
This length divided by the visible height
710
01:01:39,094 --> 01:01:42,047
the visible surface divided by the invisible surface
711
01:01:42,072 --> 01:01:43,992
this length divided by this one
712
01:01:52,510 --> 01:01:54,510
that was enough!
713
01:01:57,893 --> 01:01:59,826
All this can't be chance
714
01:01:59,851 --> 01:02:02,113
because, wherever you look in the pyramid,
715
01:02:02,138 --> 01:02:05,042
you come across Pi and the golden number.
716
01:02:05,487 --> 01:02:10,145
Its found in the visible pyramid, and is there in the upper chamber.
717
01:02:34,980 --> 01:02:40,427
Any detail that we see, was intentional, on the part of the designer, and on the part of the builders
718
01:02:40,452 --> 01:02:43,117
and there was nothing, left to chance.
719
01:02:43,816 --> 01:02:46,088
This is a controversial position
720
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:50,526
and many of the archaeological establishment, would strongly disagree
721
01:02:54,422 --> 01:02:57,291
What we get in the plan of the Great Pyramid flaw
722
01:02:57,387 --> 01:02:59,908
what we get in its curt, in its volume
723
01:02:59,933 --> 01:03:04,428
we expect to find, in the shape and volume of the funeral chambers.
724
01:03:04,833 --> 01:03:08,840
It's not surprising there the same, since they used the same methods.
725
01:03:12,917 --> 01:03:16,964
We make such amazing discoveries, with a kitchen stool
726
01:03:16,989 --> 01:03:19,312
If its well proportioned and well designed,
727
01:03:19,337 --> 01:03:22,790
we might very likely come up, with very interesting proportions,
728
01:03:22,894 --> 01:03:26,443
but does put any secret purpose or interpretation
729
01:03:26,468 --> 01:03:29,116
in these arithmetic and geometric values.
730
01:03:30,562 --> 01:03:32,696
and here's another problem!
731
01:03:33,428 --> 01:03:36,848
From our calculations, from what we can tell
732
01:03:37,650 --> 01:03:41,983
seems extremely unlikely that Egyptians knew the value of Pi.
733
01:03:42,817 --> 01:03:45,197
The golden number was also a relative unit,
734
01:03:45,222 --> 01:03:47,557
Featured in pyramids and their temples
735
01:03:48,431 --> 01:03:51,522
but never occurs in Egyptian calculations
736
01:03:52,261 --> 01:03:55,958
So this knowledge of the golden number is very surprising.
737
01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:12,607
Many Egyptologists say the ancient Egyptians, had no great mathematical skills
738
01:04:12,687 --> 01:04:15,826
and all this number stuff is just coincidence.
739
01:04:16,048 --> 01:04:18,167
But here's a mathematician opinion
740
01:04:19,453 --> 01:04:25,095
We meet it so often, that probability of it being due to chance, is "Nil"
741
01:04:25,603 --> 01:04:27,447
Is infinitesimal to me!
742
01:04:27,511 --> 01:04:30,063
Frankly its like zero.
743
01:04:30,645 --> 01:04:33,755
It stands to reason, even for a mathematician,
744
01:04:33,827 --> 01:04:36,582
Meaning someone who can access probability
745
01:04:36,607 --> 01:04:39,606
that the volume of that pyramid, was picked
746
01:04:39,637 --> 01:04:45,047
because of its numerous possibilities, to reveal through it, the golden number
747
01:04:53,923 --> 01:04:58,142
I think the ancient Egyptians, were aware of the golden number
748
01:04:58,849 --> 01:05:02,336
But they Couldn't have come across the resolution each time
749
01:05:02,424 --> 01:05:04,217
especially the perfect one
750
01:05:04,750 --> 01:05:07,032
they had to possess that knowledge!
751
01:05:08,715 --> 01:05:11,438
Its not in their culture to divulge it,
752
01:05:11,684 --> 01:05:13,513
they kept it secret
753
01:05:13,657 --> 01:05:15,790
and the best way to keep a secret
754
01:05:15,862 --> 01:05:18,195
it is not to convey it anywhere.
755
01:05:22,719 --> 01:05:25,484
It's no secret, its simple closed
756
01:05:25,683 --> 01:05:28,494
Geometry is an sensitive part of mathematics
757
01:05:28,519 --> 01:05:31,666
and just like mathematics, is a language.
758
01:05:34,317 --> 01:05:39,226
The golden number or golden ratio, often occurs in classical architecture.
759
01:05:39,497 --> 01:05:42,486
we can see it in great buildings, like the Parthenon
760
01:05:42,598 --> 01:05:44,883
and many of our medieval cathedrals.
761
01:05:57,460 --> 01:06:01,733
Like the Great Pyramid, this cathedral, shows the equinox.
762
01:06:02,218 --> 01:06:08,416
The circle indicates precisely the position of the sun, on the horizon, during the equinox.
763
01:06:13,338 --> 01:06:15,377
Even more extraordinarily
764
01:06:15,465 --> 01:06:20,939
the shape of the Great Pyramid, is hidden, in the facade, in the Strasbourg cathedral
765
01:06:21,305 --> 01:06:23,882
even though, when the cathedral was built,
766
01:06:23,907 --> 01:06:27,133
The Great Pyramid, was still partly covered in sand.
767
01:06:37,394 --> 01:06:40,664
we shouldn't be surprised by these coincidences.
768
01:06:41,537 --> 01:06:44,228
These geometric and arithmetic features
769
01:06:44,268 --> 01:06:48,637
have been brought back to be used in cathedrals, and mid evil times
770
01:06:48,844 --> 01:06:50,697
since the Crusades.
771
01:06:52,705 --> 01:06:56,886
But the cathedral was built 4,000 years after the pyramids.
772
01:06:57,148 --> 01:07:01,363
its hard to see how this secret knowledge, could possibly be passed
773
01:07:01,388 --> 01:07:03,264
from one to the other
774
01:07:05,773 --> 01:07:07,395
In our own times
775
01:07:07,420 --> 01:07:12,722
the glass pyramid at the Louvre, shares its proportions with the great Pyramid of Giza
776
01:07:17,302 --> 01:07:20,398
We asked the architect about these similarities.
777
01:07:20,550 --> 01:07:24,553
I do not know why you keep referring this pyramid, to the Giza.
778
01:07:24,578 --> 01:07:25,927
their entirely different!
779
01:07:25,952 --> 01:07:29,404
It is something that, comes naturally
780
01:07:29,738 --> 01:07:31,785
but yes, that is the right proportions
781
01:07:31,810 --> 01:07:34,120
thats the right height, relative to base.
782
01:07:34,145 --> 01:07:36,751
I never used mathematics any more
783
01:07:38,450 --> 01:07:43,607
Eventually Ieoh Pei, conceded that the two pyramids have something in common.
784
01:07:43,965 --> 01:07:49,430
The proportion of the glass pyramid and the proportion of Giza, are very close.
785
01:07:49,653 --> 01:07:50,853
Why?
786
01:07:51,512 --> 01:07:55,915
The golden section or golden Triangle, that they had investigated then
787
01:07:56,265 --> 01:07:59,657
Is still, to me, valid today.
788
01:07:59,682 --> 01:08:01,976
I tried many shape, many height
789
01:08:02,144 --> 01:08:08,591
but eventually, I come back to, the golden proportion, of the Egyptian
790
01:08:09,052 --> 01:08:11,060
And thats wonderful to learn, you know?
791
01:08:14,886 --> 01:08:19,116
Im Sorry, I have to watch the strippers down the pub
792
01:08:19,141 --> 01:08:21,813
the golden Number, the golden ratio
793
01:08:21,933 --> 01:08:24,882
is as key for the great architects of today
794
01:08:24,970 --> 01:08:27,213
as it was for our ancestors.
795
01:08:32,428 --> 01:08:36,440
But the Great Pyramid, had still more secrets to reveal.
796
01:08:45,036 --> 01:08:51,258
the pyramids length, minus its height is 314.16 meters
797
01:08:51,846 --> 01:08:54,325
that is 100 times Pi.
798
01:08:56,064 --> 01:08:58,731
The two sides added together, in meters,
799
01:08:58,756 --> 01:09:02,105
equals 100 times the golden number squared
800
01:09:02,130 --> 01:09:06,147
If the Great Pyramid was only 50 cm bigger or smaller
801
01:09:06,243 --> 01:09:08,290
non of this would be true
802
01:09:08,315 --> 01:09:10,965
The same is true of the upper chamber
803
01:09:11,002 --> 01:09:14,049
This length, in meters, is 10 times Pi.
804
01:09:14,383 --> 01:09:18,288
minus this one, its 10 times the golden number squared
805
01:09:24,146 --> 01:09:29,442
Maybe the answer to the mystery at the heart of the Great Pyramid, lay in these numbers.
806
01:09:40,649 --> 01:09:44,109
But these astonishing numbers, only work in meters.
807
01:09:44,316 --> 01:09:48,935
The length of the meter depends on a precise calculation of the circumference of the Earth
808
01:09:49,340 --> 01:09:52,377
and that was only defined in 1793.
809
01:09:52,854 --> 01:09:56,494
Unless the meter wasn't invented in 1793.
810
01:09:56,717 --> 01:10:00,199
Maybe the meter had been around, much, much earlier
811
01:10:00,224 --> 01:10:03,676
and had been secretly passed on, over the centuries.
812
01:10:04,351 --> 01:10:08,924
This takes us to the shadowy world of occult knowledge, and secret brotherhoods.
813
01:10:08,972 --> 01:10:11,630
its an uncomfortable and uncertain journey
814
01:10:11,655 --> 01:10:14,891
Maybe a step too far
815
01:10:21,311 --> 01:10:24,166
time to take another look at the "pyramidion".
816
01:10:24,191 --> 01:10:26,419
Its exactly one meter high
817
01:10:26,576 --> 01:10:28,991
If we add the length of the two sides together
818
01:10:29,016 --> 01:10:31,414
It gives us 3.14
819
01:10:31,922 --> 01:10:33,846
or Pi, in meters.
820
01:10:34,037 --> 01:10:38,350
But theres something simpler, and more interesting about the pyramidion
821
01:10:38,613 --> 01:10:42,408
its exact scale model of the Great Pyramid at Giza,
822
01:10:42,615 --> 01:10:45,603
something even its discoverer hadn't noticed
823
01:10:47,548 --> 01:10:50,501
The Giza Pyramid, is missing its apex
824
01:10:50,716 --> 01:10:55,053
Its possible that "pyramidion" is missing top, of the Great Pyramid.
825
01:11:12,421 --> 01:11:15,803
In a circle, if the diameter is one meter
826
01:11:15,899 --> 01:11:20,920
then a sixth of the circumference is 0.5236 of a meter
827
01:11:21,135 --> 01:11:25,693
which is exactly the length of the cubit, used to build the Great Pyramid
828
01:11:28,725 --> 01:11:33,678
This means that builders of the Great Pyramid certainly knew what a meter was
829
01:11:33,845 --> 01:11:36,881
They used it with PI and the golden number
830
01:11:36,906 --> 01:11:39,159
to determine the length of the Cubit
831
01:11:49,716 --> 01:11:51,750
But the mystery don't end here!
832
01:11:51,775 --> 01:11:54,288
The Anonymous researcher we spoke to earlier,
833
01:11:54,313 --> 01:11:57,326
Had been plotting the ancient sites, on a world map.
834
01:11:57,351 --> 01:12:00,057
This strip that stretches from Easter Island to Giza,
835
01:12:00,082 --> 01:12:03,699
Is actually part of a 25,000 mile circle
836
01:12:08,249 --> 01:12:12,944
In reality of course, there are no long distance connections across light years.
837
01:12:13,516 --> 01:12:16,682
Theres no possible connection, over such a stretch of time
838
01:12:16,707 --> 01:12:19,611
would link Easter Island and Egyptian pyramids.
839
01:12:24,605 --> 01:12:26,768
This 100 km wide circle
840
01:12:26,793 --> 01:12:30,676
goes through many significant ancient sites, across in the globe
841
01:12:30,749 --> 01:12:34,985
In Peru, in passes through the Paracas drawing, the Nazca tracks
842
01:12:35,010 --> 01:12:39,186
Ollantaytambo, Machu Picchu, Cuzco, Sacsayhuaman
843
01:12:39,496 --> 01:12:41,835
and the Paratoari pyramids
844
01:12:43,780 --> 01:12:47,681
In Africa, it cross's Mali and the mysterious Dogon lands
845
01:12:47,817 --> 01:12:51,813
where they knew the stars, Sirius B and C before any astronomers
846
01:12:53,219 --> 01:12:56,149
Algeria and Tassili n'Ajjer,
847
01:12:56,174 --> 01:12:58,174
With its painted Martian god.
848
01:12:58,199 --> 01:13:02,694
In Egypt, it goes through the Siwa oasis and Zeus Amun temple
849
01:13:02,719 --> 01:13:05,016
and to the Great Pyramid at Giza.
850
01:13:07,438 --> 01:13:09,715
Next, it cross's Petra ...
851
01:13:11,430 --> 01:13:13,691
Ur, where Abraham was born,
852
01:13:13,716 --> 01:13:15,632
Persepolis in Iran
853
01:13:15,657 --> 01:13:17,780
Mohenjo Daro in Pakistan,
854
01:13:17,805 --> 01:13:22,672
where the unreadable writing was found, that is so close to the writing on Easter Island.
855
01:13:23,141 --> 01:13:26,915
Then it cross's sites thats always been known, as the homes of the gods.
856
01:13:27,122 --> 01:13:28,945
Khajuraho in India,
857
01:13:29,033 --> 01:13:30,640
Pyay in Burmese
858
01:13:30,712 --> 01:13:32,801
Sukhothai in Thailand,
859
01:13:32,874 --> 01:13:36,677
Angkor Wat and Preah Vihear in Cambodia
860
01:13:37,868 --> 01:13:41,822
and ends with the most isolated and mysterious place on Earth,
861
01:13:42,085 --> 01:13:43,285
Easter Island.
862
01:13:47,767 --> 01:13:51,120
There is an astounding accuracy to this alignment.
863
01:13:55,232 --> 01:13:58,327
Although many of these sites date from different times,
864
01:13:58,402 --> 01:14:02,071
most were built on the ruins of more ancient sacred sites.
865
01:14:02,406 --> 01:14:04,548
At some remote point in the past
866
01:14:04,655 --> 01:14:09,103
someone had built a series of sacred sites on this line, circling the globe.
867
01:14:09,128 --> 01:14:11,630
The circle was as long as the equator,
868
01:14:11,655 --> 01:14:13,654
but the mystery doesn't end there.
869
01:14:13,679 --> 01:14:16,190
If we take this circle as the equator,
870
01:14:16,215 --> 01:14:18,822
then its North Pole would be located here
871
01:14:19,156 --> 01:14:22,970
and the triangle formed by this point, Nazca and Giza,
872
01:14:23,074 --> 01:14:26,613
exactly matches the shape, of the Great Pyramid.
873
01:14:26,638 --> 01:14:32,050
The distance between the Nazca and Giza equals the distance between Teotihuacรกn and Giza.
874
01:14:32,265 --> 01:14:35,653
the same as two of the distance between Angkor Wat and Nazca
875
01:14:35,678 --> 01:14:38,563
and between Mohenjo Daro and Easter Island.
876
01:14:39,017 --> 01:14:41,396
The distance between Easter Island and Giza
877
01:14:41,421 --> 01:14:43,767
is 10,000 times the golden number
878
01:14:43,887 --> 01:14:47,139
The distance between Angkor and Giza, multiplied by the golden number
879
01:14:47,164 --> 01:14:49,687
equals the distance between Giza and Nazca.
880
01:14:49,712 --> 01:14:52,956
and the Giza-Nazca distance multiplied by the golden number
881
01:14:52,981 --> 01:14:55,550
equals the Nazca, Angkor distance
882
01:15:09,746 --> 01:15:11,988
As surprising as this seems
883
01:15:12,013 --> 01:15:15,787
It ties in with some early discoveries about the pyramids.
884
01:15:18,613 --> 01:15:22,949
In the twentieth century, an astronomer and priest, Moreux,
885
01:15:23,077 --> 01:15:25,946
showed the meridian passing through the Great Pyramid
886
01:15:25,971 --> 01:15:29,717
Divided the land of the Earth, into two equal surfaces
887
01:15:29,742 --> 01:15:33,008
Making Giza the central point on the planet.
888
01:15:34,006 --> 01:15:36,108
Twenty centuries beforehand
889
01:15:36,172 --> 01:15:41,438
Agatharchides argued that the Great Pyramid was geographical reflection of the Earth.
890
01:15:45,901 --> 01:15:48,728
and the length of the two sides of the Great Pyramid
891
01:15:48,753 --> 01:15:52,667
was also the average distance a point on the equator moves
892
01:15:52,692 --> 01:15:55,630
through space, in one second.
893
01:15:55,789 --> 01:16:00,960
This is a given in physics, indicating the speed of rotation, of our planet, on its axis.
894
01:16:02,310 --> 01:16:06,320
Every aspect of the Great Pyramid is stuffed with significant numbers,
895
01:16:06,345 --> 01:16:08,327
That connect to the world.
896
01:16:10,367 --> 01:16:13,365
But many people find this hard to believe.
897
01:16:14,834 --> 01:16:16,991
You can take any kind of object,
898
01:16:17,016 --> 01:16:19,782
From a toothbrush to a steam locomotive
899
01:16:20,045 --> 01:16:22,816
and you can generate all the figures you need,
900
01:16:22,841 --> 01:16:25,319
to find all sorts of things.
901
01:16:30,129 --> 01:16:33,856
Skeptics argue that this could all be a just chance
902
01:16:34,103 --> 01:16:37,146
but the number of amazing facts that have to be explained,
903
01:16:37,171 --> 01:16:39,364
Just keep growing
904
01:16:42,912 --> 01:16:47,552
Once Again we have to return to the pyramid, for further investigation.
905
01:16:47,941 --> 01:16:51,242
Let's take another look at the inner chamber
906
01:16:52,062 --> 01:16:55,918
Each building block here weighed as much as 40 cars
907
01:16:56,093 --> 01:16:59,229
Each block had been fitted precisely
908
01:16:59,515 --> 01:17:02,798
There Perfect, vertically and horizontally
909
01:17:03,084 --> 01:17:07,675
even thou the builders didn't have the tools, to check their exact measurements
910
01:17:11,247 --> 01:17:14,682
Why did the Egyptians built with such precision?
911
01:17:15,786 --> 01:17:19,763
All efforts and intelligence of Egyptian craftsman
912
01:17:19,851 --> 01:17:23,708
were aiming at a geometric perfection, with their building
913
01:17:23,828 --> 01:17:28,532
because their monument, was meant to connect, with the realm of the gods.
914
01:17:30,953 --> 01:17:33,634
From the first pyramid to the last statue
915
01:17:33,659 --> 01:17:35,980
there is a desire for cosmic balance.
916
01:17:36,116 --> 01:17:38,408
And being a part of this cosmic balance,
917
01:17:38,433 --> 01:17:41,976
was the duty, and wish of every Egyptian.
918
01:17:43,937 --> 01:17:47,729
But if we abandon the conventional beliefs of archaeologists,
919
01:17:47,785 --> 01:17:51,970
There is an alternative explanation, that may get us closer to the truth
920
01:17:58,660 --> 01:18:02,874
There is a reason to bring huge granite blocks, 500 miles, to Giza.
921
01:18:03,129 --> 01:18:05,273
Granite has one unique property:
922
01:18:05,298 --> 01:18:07,330
It doesn't change over time,
923
01:18:07,434 --> 01:18:09,807
its dimensions remain the same.
924
01:18:10,194 --> 01:18:15,164
This means the great pyramids secrets could be transmitted through the ages.
925
01:18:21,554 --> 01:18:23,970
My Anonymous friend, drew two circles,
926
01:18:23,995 --> 01:18:27,249
one outside, one inside the base of the pyramid
927
01:18:27,274 --> 01:18:31,916
he subtracted the length of the inside circle, from the length of the outer circle.
928
01:18:32,584 --> 01:18:34,774
take this Figures to a physicist!
929
01:18:35,884 --> 01:18:36,924
Thats odd
930
01:18:36,949 --> 01:18:39,844
Thats the speed of light, no doubt about it
931
01:18:40,813 --> 01:18:42,742
This is the speed of light,
932
01:18:42,767 --> 01:18:44,980
In millions of meters per second!
933
01:18:45,092 --> 01:18:47,415
This is the number from the pyramid!
934
01:18:47,440 --> 01:18:49,317
I have nothing else to say
935
01:18:49,856 --> 01:18:52,888
Scientists may find these truths unpalatable
936
01:18:52,962 --> 01:18:54,723
but they are hard to deny.
937
01:19:00,374 --> 01:19:02,484
Are they embarrassed by these revelations?
938
01:19:02,509 --> 01:19:05,970
If we look at the Great Pyramid, without prejudice,
939
01:19:06,209 --> 01:19:07,935
with a fresh eye
940
01:19:08,166 --> 01:19:09,992
and when your a physicist
941
01:19:10,199 --> 01:19:13,467
You measure, and you noticed many things like that
942
01:19:14,444 --> 01:19:16,692
coincidences, I suppose
943
01:19:17,065 --> 01:19:19,182
but so many coincidences,
944
01:19:19,512 --> 01:19:21,521
with such a big object
945
01:19:21,783 --> 01:19:23,894
Its very disturbing.
946
01:19:29,434 --> 01:19:32,799
Many experts would argue that there is nothing extraordinary here
947
01:19:32,895 --> 01:19:36,141
They say the Great Pyramid really was Cheops tomb
948
01:19:36,232 --> 01:19:40,320
Even though no one can explain, how it could have been built in 20 years.
949
01:19:40,654 --> 01:19:44,616
They say if the Great Pyramid really is signaling the equinoxes.
950
01:19:44,736 --> 01:19:47,414
If it really contains Pi and the golden number
951
01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:49,855
and has a cubit value that relates to these
952
01:19:49,959 --> 01:19:52,372
and empress's these values โโin meters
953
01:19:52,397 --> 01:19:54,499
its all just chance.
954
01:19:59,764 --> 01:20:03,277
They say the striking similarities between the ancient site's
955
01:20:03,389 --> 01:20:05,688
thousands of miles across the world,
956
01:20:05,713 --> 01:20:07,963
Is just another coincidence.
957
01:20:16,358 --> 01:20:19,647
If these sites line up, in one line across the world
958
01:20:19,672 --> 01:20:21,641
that's a coincidence too
959
01:20:24,617 --> 01:20:27,178
And if interesting numbers continue to crop up
960
01:20:27,203 --> 01:20:29,249
In the distances between the places
961
01:20:29,274 --> 01:20:32,510
and if the Great Pyramid contains the number for the speed of light,
962
01:20:32,535 --> 01:20:34,351
Its just chance?
963
01:20:38,495 --> 01:20:40,889
How many coincidences have to happen,
964
01:20:40,914 --> 01:20:43,107
before you look for another explanation?
965
01:20:43,290 --> 01:20:46,029
This is starting to look less like chance
966
01:20:46,054 --> 01:20:48,146
and more like the hand of God.
967
01:20:51,879 --> 01:20:55,272
Or maybe there is a rational explanation for these mysteries.
968
01:20:55,423 --> 01:20:57,209
Maybe its not chance?
969
01:20:57,234 --> 01:21:00,064
Maybe once we look beyond the conventional histories,
970
01:21:00,089 --> 01:21:02,582
theres a new truth to be discovered.
971
01:21:02,725 --> 01:21:05,010
If none of this is coincidence,
972
01:21:05,035 --> 01:21:07,038
then who is responsible?
973
01:21:07,142 --> 01:21:10,453
Is it possible that it was the ancient Egyptians?
974
01:21:11,373 --> 01:21:15,211
They were not aware of the possibility of measuring the Earth.
975
01:21:15,315 --> 01:21:18,237
they would first of had to known, that was a sphere,
976
01:21:18,262 --> 01:21:20,580
which was beyond their imagination.
977
01:21:22,900 --> 01:21:25,746
could it be a more ancient civilization
978
01:21:25,945 --> 01:21:27,970
that has since disappeared
979
01:21:28,297 --> 01:21:31,498
I find the alien option much more appealing
980
01:21:31,523 --> 01:21:35,399
because we can at least say, that there is in egypt, in the pyramids.
981
01:21:35,527 --> 01:21:37,887
An incentive for the imagination.
982
01:21:43,837 --> 01:21:46,370
Not everyone is so dismissive
983
01:21:48,588 --> 01:21:52,470
Given the possible natural disasters, that could occur on Earth,
984
01:21:52,495 --> 01:21:54,597
for example, continental drift
985
01:21:54,622 --> 01:21:57,993
volcanoes or major meteorite impacts
986
01:21:58,160 --> 01:22:00,431
there's nothing to keep us from saying.
987
01:22:00,456 --> 01:22:04,197
that more advanced civilizations might have lived on our planet.
988
01:22:13,876 --> 01:22:18,614
So its possible a more advanced civilization, once lived on our planet.
989
01:22:19,054 --> 01:22:21,689
This is a bold and radical conclusion.
990
01:22:21,730 --> 01:22:24,171
and of course it raises more questions.
991
01:22:24,696 --> 01:22:27,912
Why are there no traces left of these people?
992
01:22:30,944 --> 01:22:35,536
If, for some reason, our civilization were to disappear,
993
01:22:35,672 --> 01:22:39,848
many things would withstand centuries, but not a millenia.
994
01:22:40,855 --> 01:22:43,576
Only a few big monuments would last
995
01:22:44,156 --> 01:22:48,148
monuments, I would say, like the big pyramids in Egypt.
996
01:22:52,180 --> 01:22:55,494
what then is left, of this advanced civilization?
997
01:22:55,907 --> 01:22:58,101
We know they measured the earth,
998
01:22:58,126 --> 01:23:02,162
They built a scale model based on it, in the shape of the pyramid
999
01:23:02,187 --> 01:23:04,284
Full of numerical significance.
1000
01:23:04,443 --> 01:23:09,179
They built a series of artifacts, along a line that circumnavigated the world.
1001
01:23:09,322 --> 01:23:12,194
There must be a reason for all this!
1002
01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:19,125
Everything we have discovered about the Great Pyramid,
1003
01:23:19,380 --> 01:23:22,556
must have been put there, for a specific purpose.
1004
01:23:23,025 --> 01:23:26,227
We are very close to discovering the truth.
1005
01:23:44,221 --> 01:23:47,573
When the Americans launched the second space probe.
1006
01:23:47,677 --> 01:23:49,114
Pioneer 10,
1007
01:23:49,171 --> 01:23:51,835
They put this strange little drawing on board
1008
01:23:52,002 --> 01:23:55,598
Its designed to tell any alien species that finds it
1009
01:23:55,677 --> 01:23:57,401
about human kind
1010
01:23:57,854 --> 01:24:00,960
This drawing tells them were a sexual species
1011
01:24:01,159 --> 01:24:03,879
It shows where the Earth is, in the solar system
1012
01:24:04,006 --> 01:24:06,974
and if we analyze the geometry of the drawing,
1013
01:24:07,150 --> 01:24:11,223
It also includes much more complex information.
1014
01:24:16,351 --> 01:24:18,563
Thousands of years earlier,
1015
01:24:18,699 --> 01:24:23,329
The builders of the Great Pyramid did exactly the same thing as the Americans did
1016
01:24:23,639 --> 01:24:27,387
they too sent a coded message out into the Universe
1017
01:24:27,674 --> 01:24:32,189
except this message, wasn't designed to cross vastness of space,
1018
01:24:32,467 --> 01:24:34,631
but the vastness of time.
1019
01:24:35,741 --> 01:24:38,284
The message Hidden in the Great Pyramid at Giza
1020
01:24:38,309 --> 01:24:42,092
was addressed to a future civilization, here on Earth.
1021
01:24:42,616 --> 01:24:44,601
It is a message in a bottle
1022
01:24:44,681 --> 01:24:47,221
and is addressed, to us!
1023
01:24:49,013 --> 01:24:53,066
Now we have to work out, what that message means.
1024
01:24:54,106 --> 01:24:58,341
Since they went to such incredible lengths to speak to us across time
1025
01:24:58,501 --> 01:25:02,729
It must contain information, of utmost importance.
1026
01:25:05,508 --> 01:25:09,672
The Builders have precisely signaled the equinoxes, again and again
1027
01:25:10,117 --> 01:25:14,485
there pointing us to critical astronomical cycle of our planet.
1028
01:25:15,581 --> 01:25:19,659
Each star moves one degree every 72 years.
1029
01:25:19,786 --> 01:25:22,093
It takes 26,000 years,
1030
01:25:22,118 --> 01:25:26,005
for a star to complete a full orbit of the planet.
1031
01:25:42,398 --> 01:25:47,091
the constellations of the Zodiac, locate the Earth in the Universe.
1032
01:26:01,398 --> 01:26:05,564
The "Pyramidion" has a parameter, precisely 12 cubits long
1033
01:26:05,930 --> 01:26:09,733
the presence of Pi, points us to a circle
1034
01:26:09,924 --> 01:26:13,947
Together, that refers to a 12 zone circle
1035
01:26:14,884 --> 01:26:16,401
The Zodiac.
1036
01:26:17,791 --> 01:26:21,666
The four angles of the pyramid refer to the four signs of the zodiac:
1037
01:26:22,238 --> 01:26:26,472
Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius.
1038
01:26:26,925 --> 01:26:30,600
In the ancient world, Scorpio was represented by an eagle
1039
01:26:30,768 --> 01:26:32,963
and Aquarius by an angel.
1040
01:26:33,383 --> 01:26:35,983
These signs are carved in stone,
1041
01:26:36,008 --> 01:26:38,212
on the front of this cathedral.
1042
01:26:40,601 --> 01:26:43,470
Four stars belong to these four signs.
1043
01:26:43,923 --> 01:26:46,859
They use to be called the four guardians of heaven.
1044
01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:50,623
They are Aldebaran, in the Taurus constellation
1045
01:26:50,902 --> 01:26:52,793
Regulus in Leo
1046
01:26:52,912 --> 01:26:54,726
Antares in Scorpio
1047
01:26:54,902 --> 01:26:57,847
and Fomalhaut, on top of Piscis today
1048
01:26:57,872 --> 01:27:00,712
but previously in Aquarius.
1049
01:27:01,074 --> 01:27:04,556
These stars keep the same position and relation to each other
1050
01:27:05,184 --> 01:27:08,895
they Can be used as steady points of reference through time
1051
01:27:09,581 --> 01:27:12,471
This is Taurus-Scorpio axis
1052
01:27:12,496 --> 01:27:15,194
formally known as Taurus-Eagle axis,
1053
01:27:15,520 --> 01:27:19,290
shown by the Babylonians as a winged bull.
1054
01:27:19,918 --> 01:27:22,399
This is the Leu-Angel axis .
1055
01:27:22,796 --> 01:27:27,397
Its symbol is in front of our noses, here on the Giza plateau
1056
01:27:28,048 --> 01:27:29,248
The Sphinx,
1057
01:27:29,653 --> 01:27:32,421
a mans head, on a lion's body.
1058
01:27:41,282 --> 01:27:45,553
Archaeologists believe that the Sphinx was built long after the Great Pyramid,
1059
01:27:45,728 --> 01:27:47,418
but they maybe wrong.
1060
01:27:47,443 --> 01:27:48,977
Look at this
1061
01:27:49,104 --> 01:27:52,225
This triangle is the same shape as the Great Pyramid.
1062
01:27:52,455 --> 01:27:54,878
One side runs through the sphinx's head
1063
01:27:55,028 --> 01:27:57,259
If we outline the base of the Great Pyramid
1064
01:27:57,283 --> 01:28:00,155
and shift it sideways, and extend the right side,
1065
01:28:00,180 --> 01:28:02,075
It hits the Sphinx's head.
1066
01:28:11,009 --> 01:28:13,086
And if we trace a circle like this
1067
01:28:13,111 --> 01:28:15,419
once again we hit the Sphinx's head
1068
01:28:15,531 --> 01:28:17,849
in exactly the same spot
1069
01:28:20,293 --> 01:28:22,677
This could be the answer were looking for
1070
01:28:23,075 --> 01:28:25,817
Giza is an astronomical clock,
1071
01:28:25,842 --> 01:28:28,543
whose dial was the four stars.
1072
01:28:28,639 --> 01:28:32,658
In Addition, the clocks hand, the Sphinx's gaze
1073
01:28:32,785 --> 01:28:36,704
Turns around itself, every 26,000 years
1074
01:28:36,974 --> 01:28:41,851
and lets us point precisely to the Earths position, in this big cycle.
1075
01:28:43,193 --> 01:28:45,673
But how do we know when the cycle begins?
1076
01:28:46,015 --> 01:28:48,744
There is a mysterious bump on the Sphinx's chest
1077
01:28:48,872 --> 01:28:51,239
that Arabs call "the lions heart".
1078
01:28:51,764 --> 01:28:54,423
"The Lions heart" is also the Arabic name
1079
01:28:54,448 --> 01:28:58,088
for the brightest star in the Leo constellation, "Regulus".
1080
01:29:02,858 --> 01:29:06,105
The Sphinx has always been the symbol for enigma
1081
01:29:06,614 --> 01:29:09,563
she speaks to mankind, with the famous riddle.
1082
01:29:09,913 --> 01:29:12,541
who starts his day on four legs,
1083
01:29:12,701 --> 01:29:14,746
continuously on two legs
1084
01:29:14,881 --> 01:29:17,401
and finishes on three legs?
1085
01:29:19,949 --> 01:29:21,845
Remember the answer
1086
01:29:22,124 --> 01:29:24,284
"man and his destiny"
1087
01:29:26,915 --> 01:29:30,166
When the Sphinx's eyes line up with the star Regulus,
1088
01:29:30,421 --> 01:29:32,029
The lions heart,
1089
01:29:32,387 --> 01:29:36,050
then a new cycle of the equinoxes begins
1090
01:29:41,622 --> 01:29:44,592
This huge clock, our planets clock
1091
01:29:44,744 --> 01:29:48,411
Makes a full circle every 26,000 years.
1092
01:29:56,617 --> 01:30:00,074
Everything we have looked at, points to this
1093
01:30:01,289 --> 01:30:04,812
So what was so important, to draw attention
1094
01:30:04,837 --> 01:30:07,625
to this 26,000 year cycle?
1095
01:30:13,515 --> 01:30:16,456
We know that the glacier and heat cycles
1096
01:30:16,481 --> 01:30:19,280
are in sync with Earth's orbital parameters.
1097
01:30:24,177 --> 01:30:28,289
So maybe the cycle of the equinoxes, affects our climate?
1098
01:30:28,956 --> 01:30:30,829
In many ancient texts
1099
01:30:30,949 --> 01:30:36,027
There is evidence for the idea, that theres a cycle of destruction, and rebirth
1100
01:30:36,400 --> 01:30:38,586
by water, or by fire,
1101
01:30:38,611 --> 01:30:42,501
For example, in the ancient sacred texts of the Hindus.
1102
01:30:52,190 --> 01:30:56,320
Several Greek authors, write about cyclical cataclysms,
1103
01:30:56,543 --> 01:30:58,410
Plato was among them.
1104
01:30:58,435 --> 01:31:03,374
Aristotle also talks about cyclical revolutions of the earth, and sky,
1105
01:31:03,399 --> 01:31:05,745
wiping out life, on the planet.
1106
01:31:17,104 --> 01:31:19,594
The Maya too, have a similar legend,
1107
01:31:19,658 --> 01:31:22,900
saying we live in the era of the fifth sun.
1108
01:31:24,853 --> 01:31:29,367
Rain and floods destroyed this humanity and this creation,
1109
01:31:30,305 --> 01:31:33,619
something very similar to the bibles flood.
1110
01:31:34,445 --> 01:31:37,502
The fifth sun, is the sun of movement
1111
01:31:37,527 --> 01:31:41,193
a sun of earth, the air, the fire,
1112
01:31:41,218 --> 01:31:44,614
The water, the movement of life.
1113
01:31:46,631 --> 01:31:52,233
But it's a sun which will end, and this end will happen in terrible cataclysms,
1114
01:31:52,258 --> 01:31:54,453
when the gods decrepit.
1115
01:31:56,327 --> 01:31:59,617
The Destruction isn't linked, to human behavior.
1116
01:32:05,562 --> 01:32:09,135
Todays Science makes us look again at these legends.
1117
01:32:12,024 --> 01:32:15,319
There are other case's, like tsunami.
1118
01:32:16,344 --> 01:32:20,574
A Tsunami is a phenomenon, where natural Dam breaks
1119
01:32:20,884 --> 01:32:25,157
and the water is released, causing huge floods across the Earth
1120
01:32:25,301 --> 01:32:28,327
with very significant volumes of water.
1121
01:32:29,582 --> 01:32:34,518
It is very likely that many ancient people witnessed this phenomenon
1122
01:32:34,543 --> 01:32:39,435
and then tell stories about it, and called it "the flood"
1123
01:32:44,570 --> 01:32:49,880
The Last major climate catastrophe, happened 10 to 12 thousand years ago.
1124
01:32:50,428 --> 01:32:53,326
The climates across the globe, changed radically.
1125
01:32:53,414 --> 01:32:57,042
This climate catastrophe wiped-out entire species,
1126
01:32:57,067 --> 01:32:59,634
like the woolly mammoth and saber-tooth tiger
1127
01:32:59,738 --> 01:33:02,448
and possibly, many more.
1128
01:33:13,532 --> 01:33:16,551
There are many species that probably disappeared.
1129
01:33:16,576 --> 01:33:19,063
but since they were not kept frozen
1130
01:33:19,262 --> 01:33:21,501
We puzzle over their death.
1131
01:33:22,135 --> 01:33:24,460
We can't answer the question, "how many"
1132
01:33:24,485 --> 01:33:27,908
because the research, the studies haven't been done
1133
01:33:29,012 --> 01:33:33,612
We'll answer that question, when we get the human, and financial means to answer it
1134
01:33:37,463 --> 01:33:41,670
So species disappeared, and forests were turned into deserts.
1135
01:33:51,316 --> 01:33:55,479
Could the Giza Clock refer to this catastrophe in some way
1136
01:33:57,606 --> 01:34:01,341
If the line that straddles the globe, through all the ancient site's
1137
01:34:01,366 --> 01:34:04,740
was an equator, its north pole would be here.
1138
01:34:05,170 --> 01:34:09,799
This point is precisely located at the Earth's magnetic pole,
1139
01:34:10,053 --> 01:34:12,355
which is different from our North Pole.
1140
01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:17,185
Magnetic pole, isn't a steady point, on the surface of our planet.
1141
01:34:18,099 --> 01:34:20,759
It moves about 25 miles a year
1142
01:34:21,910 --> 01:34:24,656
Today, thanks to modern technology,
1143
01:34:24,776 --> 01:34:28,051
we know that this oscillation is increasing.
1144
01:34:29,139 --> 01:34:31,496
this is very disturbing!
1145
01:34:32,250 --> 01:34:34,868
Could the Line of the ancient site be positioned
1146
01:34:34,877 --> 01:34:37,946
To draw attention, to the magnetic pole?
1147
01:34:38,653 --> 01:34:41,223
The Magnetic pole is not stable.
1148
01:34:41,248 --> 01:34:43,591
Its reversed itself many times.
1149
01:34:44,132 --> 01:34:47,811
We recorded about 100 pole reversals.
1150
01:34:49,793 --> 01:34:51,621
No one knows why,
1151
01:34:51,646 --> 01:34:55,059
but scientists think it maybe linked to the sun.
1152
01:35:06,202 --> 01:35:09,514
The consequences, of the magnetic pole,
1153
01:35:09,539 --> 01:35:13,870
I think that today, we would need tens of hundreds of researches
1154
01:35:13,895 --> 01:35:18,285
to gather around, and brainstorm about this kind of research.
1155
01:35:18,310 --> 01:35:22,892
We Try to understand, the direct and indirect consequences,
1156
01:35:23,337 --> 01:35:26,906
of this magnetic pole inversions .
1157
01:35:29,026 --> 01:35:30,845
Our climate is changing,
1158
01:35:30,870 --> 01:35:33,692
the movement of our magnetic pole is accelerating.
1159
01:35:34,042 --> 01:35:36,995
We can not know what the consequences could be?
1160
01:35:51,562 --> 01:35:54,909
The magnetic field creates the atmosphere around the earth,
1161
01:35:54,997 --> 01:35:58,457
which protect us, against the radiation from space
1162
01:35:59,005 --> 01:36:02,382
If it disappeared, our planet would be burned.
1163
01:36:05,915 --> 01:36:09,231
Destruction by fire, as the ancients told us.
1164
01:36:16,935 --> 01:36:20,638
Modern science and ancient prophecies, were matching up
1165
01:36:33,784 --> 01:36:36,182
At the beginning of our civilization,
1166
01:36:36,262 --> 01:36:39,181
Much was kept secret by the priests.
1167
01:36:39,237 --> 01:36:42,499
Maybe they were the guardians of some ancient knowledge?
1168
01:36:42,524 --> 01:36:45,759
in a world recovering from a climate catastrophe.
1169
01:36:46,220 --> 01:36:50,350
Maybe they had been trusted to pass the message on to future generations.
1170
01:36:59,101 --> 01:37:02,833
maybe these astonishing building were constructed, to warn us?
1171
01:37:02,890 --> 01:37:05,231
against a terrible cycle of destruction,
1172
01:37:05,946 --> 01:37:09,017
an event that eradicated their own civilization,
1173
01:37:09,042 --> 01:37:12,444
So now, we know nothing about them.
1174
01:37:18,134 --> 01:37:23,745
many thousands of years ago, a sophisticated civilization, lived on our planet.
1175
01:37:24,151 --> 01:37:26,505
A civilization so generous
1176
01:37:26,530 --> 01:37:29,770
that encoded messages across the earth to warn us,
1177
01:37:29,937 --> 01:37:32,086
in the far, far future,
1178
01:37:32,111 --> 01:37:34,361
of a potential threat.
1179
01:37:40,846 --> 01:37:45,655
This is a message from the past, that we should surely take seriously.
1180
01:37:49,033 --> 01:37:52,683
The Climate change that scientists see in our world today
1181
01:37:52,740 --> 01:37:55,391
could be the first signs of the catastrophe
1182
01:37:55,526 --> 01:37:58,943
our ancient ancestors, were warning us about
1183
01:38:02,449 --> 01:38:05,183
our time maybe running out
1184
01:38:08,152 --> 01:38:11,005
The answers to these ancient mysteries are strange
1185
01:38:11,220 --> 01:38:12,955
and difficult to fathom
1186
01:38:13,297 --> 01:38:17,560
Many scientists and archaeologists will dismiss them, out of hand
1187
01:38:29,284 --> 01:38:31,810
But if we decide to ignore them,
1188
01:38:31,945 --> 01:38:35,133
then our planet may pay, a terrible price.
1189
01:38:41,317 --> 01:38:46,603
The great Pyramid of Giza, has a message, for us all
1190
01:38:46,628 --> 01:38:53,628
Human origins are older, than whats taught ;)
