Anyone watch this? Pretty dam good show.Just started watching the first season , and its extremely interesting. They bring up great points on Egyptian pyramids etc.It has religious links as well from all parts of religion. Highly suggest people check it out I'm only on the 2nd episode, its quite long about an hour and a half but its well worth it if you're interested. Its on the history channel, they have around 5 seasons in total and its on going I believe

I love when Giorgio Tsoukalos is on the Joe Rogan Experience. The premise is great - trying to explain ancient structures with an alternative reasons. People can call it a pseudoscience but the truth of the matter is that some of these structures were built ages ago without tools we have now that could do half the job.

Yah I mean tehres no way Ancient Egyptians could build those pyramids with sticks and stones(basically) its a proven fact that it was build with electrical tools. How kids aren't being taught this in school is ridiculous

Why would there be sarcasm? Incan structures such as Sacsayhuamán (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacsayhuamán) where 100s of people use "ropes" to carry tons of very large stones - it's easier to believe that aliens did it rather than ropes.

I think it's pretty interesting how significant the pyramid has been throughout history, features on the dollar bill and many many ancient civilisations, from Bosnia, to Egypt, to Central and South America.

Open up your mind. Its impossible for those primitive cultures to do it with ropes and rollers. Its been proven. Moving those boulders cutting them ,transporting them and putting them into place mathematically it would take 5 seconds to do ALL of that. Explain to me how you can't replicate that in todays world but in those times they had that technology? Can't , those boulders weigh tons and if our modern day technology is having trouble doing it theres no way Egyptians can do it.
How do you think Stone Henge was built? You put people all across each boulder its not nearly enough. It would take over 100 people I believe to carry and put into place just 1 boulder which also weighs several tons.
What about ancient stone cutting? Carvings on these pyramids that are mathematically correct to the mm. Proven that they needed power tools to be carved,the carvings are so incredible that if you run your finger across the edge fo those stones you'll cut your finger.
Thats not even scratching the surface . Don't be closed minded, Egyptians couldn't build those things with their tools. If modern technology has trouble explain to me how they did it with ropes and rollers?

Wtf? I didnt know people took this how seriously... They always give ridiculous explanations and say that "could this be signs of et life? It could be"... They never look at simple explanations for anything... U know that saying they use in medicine, ockhams razor... If u hear holves it's probably a horse... This show just assumes its a fvcking unicorn...

Read my post. Don't be so closed minded. There are facts, they don't state everything is a fact but our ancestors weren't stupid. Thats why people like you need to be open minded, you just assume everything they're saying they're passing it off as 100% fact they aren't and they even say it plenty of times but they DO bring factual evidence.
By all means if you want to disagree with facts then thats fine but you'll be stupid for doing so. Watch the show and don't just say"oh they talk about aliens they're crazy"
People who shut this kind of stuff down are just afraid that what they've been told is wrong and that the truth could be aliens do exist .

You keep ignoring facts though. You say its retarded but why?
1.Explain to me how man can create these pyramids in 30 years with their hands and a chisel?
2.Explain that they can transport over 2 tons of stone per block with just ropes and wooden rollers?
3.Explain how mathematically speaking that in order to cut these boulders into rectangles, transporting it,putting it into place each one took 5 seconds to do.
4.Explain how these tools http://dondougan.homestead.com/mallet_tooth3.jpg http://dondougan.homestead.com/tp.gif were able to cut perfect straight lines better than current day technology for doing similar?
5.Explain how carvings in ancient Egypt aren't able to be replicated without the use of electrical power tools? They weren't stupid but they couldn't have done things with primitive tools, its impossible . There are carvings, even the head of the Sphinx(if I remember correctly) is mathematically precise every mm on it which wouldn't be possible with just a chisel.
You want to tell me a chisel,ropes , and wood is better at creating buildings than what our technology is today? Give me a break You can't dismiss it beacuse your teacher told you otherwise in school. Things come to light as years go by, stop being stubborn and closed minded and stop being scared that we're not told the entire story
If you can explain everyone, better than people who dedicate their lives to these types of things(not just aliens) then by all means you are the worlds smartest human being and we should hail you as King of Earth.

explain how super ancient aliens with advanced technology came to earth and instead of giving earths peoples something useful they built giant tombs made of stone to bury them... explain why people continued to build pyramids until 1500 bc? did they always use magic wands to lift giant slabs of stone? and how come none of the leading world civilizations of this time have no information on these magic wands... historical accounts show that the people use pulleys rollers and leavers to build this... but u assume they are lying to hide theone of the most significant events in human history, visitation of extraterrestrial life, from future generations? fvck no.. people will believe anything they see on tv..

This whole subject fascinates me, maybe not so much the "Ancient Aliens" aspect of it but just the questions of "how was this built" "how did they do such and such." I honestly feel that we don't understand how far back ancient civilization goes. We believe that 30,000 BCE, after the ice age that we were still very primitive living in caves. The thing with the ice age and afterwards is that it submerged what is the equivalent of all of Europe and Asia under water. This is all fertile coastline where cities and civilizations would be built. Their is an estimated 10,000 or so cities around the globe that are underwater, many of which are unaccounted for to which civilization it belonged too. One of the oldest is off the most southern island of Japan, where they found enormous man made structures that carbon date approximately 30,000 years ago. Whether it was indeed some advanced race from somewhere else or simply not understanding exactly when civilization started, it is important to at least keep an open mind.
The one area I find the most fascinating is that of Pumapunku, built in what we call the "Stone-Age" they had giant 600 ton slabs of diorite with precision carvings in them. Anyone who knows minerals knows that diorite can only be cut by diamond. So it would be impossible for simple stone tools to not only cut these giant slabs but also to create highly complex precision sculptures and drawings on them. Whoever made them had the knowledge 10's of thousands of years ago to do this with diamond when the general thought is at that time we could barely make fire and the invention of the wheel was not even on our primitive minds.

lol avoiding answering questions not surprised
Explanations as to why who knows? Maybe they're in religious texts see the thing is I know the limitation of this theory. No one knows as to why nor did anyone ever say they knew but facts are there. Who said anything about magic wands? The problem is, you watch the show with a closed mind and assume everything they say is them passing it off as fact in which they say in every segment of every episode that its mere speculation on what could be but ultimately there are facts that Egyptians or Mayans or whomever could not build with such primitive tools
Pyramids have religious meaning.Its like a gateway sort of to heaven to be with the Gods.If you watched the show like you say you have you'd know that. Most of your questions have been answered actually.
There are plenty of different areas of the world that have similarities that are so distant apart. Which is discussed in the show. If Aliens exsist , they have spacecrafts... why only goto 1 area? There are places like Mayan Pyramids, Egyptian Pyramids, stone henge etc.that have "unexplained" ways of being built. How could modern humans lift those boulders at stone henge ontop of one another? Theres no explanation for a reason
Historical accounts and? History hasn't been wrong ? Ever? We don't know our history as well as people want to believe. They have historical explanations but those explanations are faulty which have been proven like stated a million times.
You say I assume they're lying but why are you assuming they're telling the truth? They've lied before and people have been wrong in history which is osmething you keep ignoring. Thats a common theme with you you're ignoring what I'm saying because you have no explanation and just assume what we're told in school is 100% correct
Think of it this way, say we were visited by ET's and its all a cover up theres a reason why. Back in I think the 40's or 50's there was a radio program about aliens attacking earth but there was a mess up and started late people thought it was a real news bulletin . People went crazy , expecting the Apocalypse. Thats the biggest reason why they'd keep it a secret
Hell, there have been famous figures even political ones who have come in contact and witnessed UFO's. Former presidents and even Christopher Columbus reported several times as well. Why are you better than they are?Why would they lie?
Do I believe the whole show? No, but there are undeniable facts that you cant deny because you were told otherwise.Just because they dont have answers to certain questions doesn't make its all untrue

i ignore most of what you say cuz u say so much.. i dont want to sit here and respond to it all...
how do u know i watched it with a closed mind? what if i took an open minded approach to watching it then formed my opinion.. just because i disagree with you i must be closed minded?
when you use words liked proven, stated and explained you actually have proven stated or explained anything... you are regurgitating sounds bites from the show and passing them off as your evidence...
ur ignoring logical explanations in favour of the most absurd and far fetched one imaginable... aliens came from over 4.2 light years away and visited our planet, interacted with our species, built giant stone structures and left absolutely no clear positive impact on any society that in any way helped move forward mankind.... there were literate cultures at the time. there were greek states, trojans and a bunch in the middle east.. there is no clear written reference to aliens... unless of course the greek gods are just further proof that aliens were among us..
and a cover up? ur saying that there has been an ungoing cover up for the last 4 000 years.. why would there be a cover up before the mistaken alien invasion in the 40's... conspiracy theorists always find the necessary evidence to to keep on going... see bobby for example

You're ignoring what I said because you know I'm right on the matter. Thats all that needs to be said. Shutting down actual facts because it goes against what you learned shows your closed minded and the need to resort to mockery because you had no argument just shows how you are

The point is people in that time couldn't have build it with what they knew. So the idea of aliens having some part in it isn't totally farfetched. Not sure if it is, but anyone should question how many of these buildings were created when the people in that time did not have the proper equipment for it.

There are so many anomalies out there that just do not fit in...so like you say they just reject stuff out of hand or ignore it totally.
