ALL the comments to that video are saying that the video poster should be more informed about the graph. EVERYONE of them.
This video is fail. It shows only ignorance and lack of knowledge. Timewave zero is not debunkable, hasn't been debunke yet and won't be until 2013.

The problem with the likes of Lungold and Calleman is that their claims are demonstrably false. That is why they are hoaxers. I am not assigning then to the bin of being hoaxers without the fact that they put out falsehoods.
A clear example is the claims of the 9 levels based on the 9 levels in a pyramid. That is not Mayan. That is a hoax perpetrated by Lungold. The number of fallacies he has pushed is huge.
Here is a page I found online. How many errors can you find:
The Mayan Calendar Applied
by Ian Xel Lungold
Here is a sample of blatant errors:
1. Number of days for human gestation
2. Number of different cell types in the human body
3. The claim that the "human reproduction cycle follows this moon cycle"
4. Misleading statements about the Tun calendar
5. "The Tun calendar of 360 days is the Macro-Cosmic time scale of evolution."
6. "all the way back 15 billion years to the Big Bang"
7. "The Mayan calendars are built in 9 levels or 9 major stages of evolutionary development."
8. "Next came the Familial Cycle, a consciousness stage of the first monkeys 40 million years ago."
9. "The Tribal Cycle follows, (2 million years ago) developing Homo erectus and winding up with Homo sapiens."
10. "From there Consciousness began to form Cultures (102,000 years ago) and thereafter the National Cycle began (3115 BC) when the first nations were formed, we started writing and the first pyramids were built."
The list can go on and on. This guy was a fraud and a hoaxer.

Stereologist, your stance against 2012 comes from
the fact that you view Lungold, Calleman, and the
other two people you named, to be hoaxers.
I've never heard of these guys. But if they are not hoaxers, prove to me that everything that they say is absolute truth and that they have never benefited in any shape or form from their announcements. A few papers in Science or Nature would help.
AFAIK the 2012 issue originated back in the early 1990s with Maurice Cotterell. Until then everyone was obsessed with the end of the word in 1999
Others have since jumped on the bandwagon and will no doubt find new ones in 2013.edit on 8-6-2011 by Essan because: (no reason given)
So, all you have is his own list....
And which of the list are hoaxes?
Do I need to guess myself,
Or were you deliberately vague....

Can you believe that Lungold thought we were so stupid as to think that human gestation was 260 days? You certainly didn't fall for that or his other stupid claims did you?

Of course you knew these were all hoaxes otherwise you would have contested even one, but then you can't can you?

that date is nothing more than a Astrological alignment and changing from Pisces to Aquarius. I have seen no Mayan expert say the Mayan Calander ends then, they all actually say it keeps going, imagine that a circle with no end. It's the 13th Baktun and the beginning of a new age for them not the end of the world...
