Not too crazy sounding.. Took us a couple hundred years to build our country and put stuff in space. A lot can happen in five billion years. I've always wondered if the earth would just take everything back. If a major global disaster occurs and everything on the surface is incinerated, can we bring life back? I believe it's possible, but it's hard to imagine that extremely complex life could come back. It's a fact that a meteorite struck the earth and ended the dinosaur. This is not even up for discussion according to the Iridium ring circling the earth, so how would we survive?

It is my personal opinion that this program presents a very close representation to the truth.

If you follow it out, it explains A LOT. Atlantis, megalithic mystery structures, why those megalithic mystery structures ALL seem to have been built as clocks, The Piri Reis Map (this account is unbelievable in and of itself!) and much more.

I just hope that dude towards the end has his dates right and the next slip isn't set to occur in 2012.
I mean, if we were to take this story at face value, what it basically says is that the Atlantean culture was the latest of a series of failed civilizations (literature supports this as well) that fell victim to Earth Crust Displacement (an event that triggers a literal 2,000 mile shift of the earth's entire crust) and that that "Island" is now the continent of Antarctica. The people that survived the cataclysm (most likely those who were at the time abroad) moved about and started spreading their knowledge to the rest of the people around the globe, most likely building these structures as a device to calculate the next shift.
The Ancient Americans were amongst those directly influenced by them. Including those who predated the Mayans... (just sayin)

Anyhow, thanks for posting it here. I've seen this before and I loved it.

It really hammers home the similarities in these cultures' construction methods in particular with their comments on how both (Ancient Egypt and Ancient American) used alloy staples between blocks in their structures that required a portable smelting device.

There are some positives to think about though. Our polar caps are melting right now. So unless the mechanism of Earth Crust Displacement are incorrect, we shouldn't see one any time soon.
Hopefully time enough to figure this puzzle out and find a way to side-step it...

My guess is it is the "aliens."

I believe that there is strong evidence for extra-terrestrial intervention, especially when looking at ancient literature, hieroglyphs, cave drawings, etc.

I say this because of the various occurrences of buildings, monuments, statues and other physical objects displaying extremely accurate construction techniques, seemingly impossible for the technology at the estimated times of construction.

There are only a few examples of these worldwide, but they have similar characteristics as the video shows.

IMO these could only have been made by an advanced civilization with technology not available to the Earth natives at the time.

I notice a lot of people attacking the videos on even what I consider to be the most outlandish idea of the lot.
That being that Evolution is incorrect.
In reality, the evolutionary comments matter not at all to the overall idea of the videos.

Like someone said on the last page, remember that any theory can only be pursued through funding first.

Is the astronomy incorrect?
The building specifications?

Or is it as the author claims that these things like the alloyed staples in the building blocks found round the globe simply ignored because they don't fit with current models?

I lean toward the latter.

Not once in the video did anyone mention anything about creationism.

Who are the ones building strawmen? Baiting much?

Oh puleeeze...so I grab a quikki reference that says what I want it to say because I'm up to my arse in other stuff. And I cite it as such. So sue me. The message is the same, and reasonably elegant at that.

At least I use caps in my sentences.

Very awesome series! Thanks for sharing it!

Have any of you actually READ "Forbidden Archeology"?

I HAVE. It reads more like a collegiate level textbook on archeology than what some of the people on here are describing. It is 900+ pages of footnotes, appendices, and notations. It is NOT a book for the general populous, as it is incredibly dry and boring (because it is nothing but scientific facts and data). Any "opinions" are few and far between.

The author is not a creationist per-se. He merely says that humans in their present form have existed for MILLIONS of years, not hundreds of thousands as is commonly believed in the scientific community.

Read the book, THEN tell me how the author "got it all wrong", and is a "creationist", etc., etc., etc. Until then, you people are ignorant of what he shows.

If you listen to what the proponents say in the video, they are telling us that there IS NOT any sort of actual conspiracy here. It is human instinct...

I noticed that Jay-in-AR, it is the lifelong human tendency to bury any information or ideas that don't conform to the current status-quo. But I believe that in some cases, there are also agents of suppression.

evolution says we are getting better and bigger now, so anything that shows bigger or better in the past is hidden, reburied or just pretended not to exist.

Evolution does not mean that things are getting better or bigger necessarily. It just means that it is 'evolving" (changing. transforming) so that it will survive better and more efficiently in its current environment. In fact, some species have gotten smaller, some have lost hair, etc. Please do not disinform.

And just one question: how is Darwin's theory racist? What do you mean by that?
