one of the greatest mysteries of mankind is where did we come from scientists and
philosophers alike have pondered this elusive question and put forth many explanations putting truth no one really
knows good evening I'm Charlton Heston in their search for
answers scientists gather evidence and develop theories based on what they
observe but sometimes evidence turns up that completely contradicts this
footprints resembling modern man's were discovered in Texas side-by-side with
dinosaur tracks does this mean that man lived millions of years ago at the time
of the dinosaur these 70-ton blocks were somehow transported to the peruvian mountain temple of orient thai temple
the only source of this red granite is five miles away on the peak of another
month ancient maps have been discovered which correctly depict he come into that
arcticus centuries before it was discovered by europeans some claim this
is evidence of a technologically advanced that existed before recorded history
began
tonight we'll examine eaves and other controversial findings to see if what
we're being taught about the origins of man is supported by the evidence we'll meet a new breed of scientific
investigators who claim that the history of man in this planet may be radically
different to what is accepted today
before the 19th century Western man looked the Bible for an explanation his
origins in the story of Genesis God created man from the dust of the earth
6,000 years ago but when man dug into the earth for answers he found evidence
that appeared to tell a different story evolution in 1859 Charles Darwin
published his book the Origin of Species this book put forth the revolutionary
idea that all life on Earth could be explained by the workings of nature
instead of a Supreme Being creating the diversity of life the theory of
evolution proposes that accidental changes in nature are the cost these
changes are governed by the process of natural selection survival of the
fittest over the past two centuries archaeologists have collected bones and
artifacts that suggest there's a logical sequence of evolutionary steps from ape
to man man's earliest relatives were ape-like beings who appeared around 25
million years ago the first of those to walk upright emerged 20 million years
later over the remaining 5 million years he continued to evolve passing through various stages and development until
modern men like ourselves emerged over 100
years ago archeologists determine the age of artifacts by the level of strata
or layer of earth they're found in recent artifacts associated with modern
man are generally found close to the surface while older more primitive artifacts are in deeper layers of ground
but sometimes artifacts are found that break all the rules
archaeologists call them anomalous artifacts what happens when we find the
modern human skull and rock strata far beneath even the oldest of man's ancestors in their controversial book
forbidden archeology Michael Cremo and dr. Richard Thompson have documented
hundreds of these anomalous artifacts which have yet to be explained the basic
body of evidence that we've uncovered in this book suggests that human beings of
modern anatomical type have been existing for many many millions of years
into the past
in 1880 California state geologist JD Whitney was intrigued by an unexpected
discovery made 300 feet under Table Mountain
while digging for gold miners on earth to variety of stone tools such as modern
vessels and ladles incredibly the rock strata the tools were reportedly found
in was dated as early as 55 million years old Whitney made a thorough report in his
finds and came to an unsettling conclusion and could be millions of
years older than the current evolutionary model suggests this bizarre
evidence seems to have been well documented yet the general public and
many within the scientific community are unaware of these controversial finds the
question is why haven't we heard of these discoveries before oh I think
we're talking about a massive cover-up as I said over the past hundred and
fifty years these archaeologists and anthropologists have covered up as much evidence as they dug up literally
basically what you find is something we call a knowledge filter this is a
fundamental feature of science it's also a fundamental feature of human nature
people tend to filter out things that don't fit that don't make sense in terms
of their paradigm or their way of thinking so in science you find that
evidence that doesn't fit the accepted paradigm tends to be eliminated it's not
taught it's not discussed and people who are educated in scientific teachings
generally don't even learn about it
conventional theory states that modern man originated in southern Africa around
a hundred thousand years ago from there he migrated north into Europe and southern Asia continued through Asia and
crossed the Bering Strait into the new world around 30,000 years ago he then
came down through North America and finally arrived in South America around
15,000 years ago yet numerous artifacts have been found across North and South
America that are so old they threatened to completely overturn this theory
according to geologists Virginia Steen MacIntyre she was silenced the height of
her career because of her determination to report the facts
in the summer of 1966 a collection of stone tools including this leaf shaped
spear point was uncovered at viatical Mexico to find out exactly how old the spear points were a team of experts from
the United States Geological Survey was called in to date them when we first
began to work on the way at local site we thought we had an old side this is
back in 66 and we thought it was perhaps 20,000 years old and at that time that
was considered a very old age for the site we did what they call radiometric
dates which gives an actual date range and we use two different methods to do
that one was using uranium atoms and other was using little zircon crystals we finally got the dates and all the
different methods we used to date it it came out to be 250,000 years old to tell
you the truth I would have been happy with a twenty thousand year old date it
would have made my career it was very old for the time but it wasn't so old
that it was that controversial people can take twenty thousand year steps they
can't take steps that are over two hundred thousand years at one time and I
was rather a naive I thought okay we've got something big here but I'm just
going to stick with the date we've got the information we got the facts let's
get the facts out and go on from there and I didn't realize it was going to
ruin my whole career
according to dr. McIntyre because she stuck to the facts all of her
professional opportunities were closed off she's not worked in her chosen field
since site was closed and permission for further investigation was denied forever
it's not necessarily a deliberate conspiracy in the sense of some people
getting together in a smoke-filled room and saying we're going to deceive people
it's something that happens automatically within the scientific
community so when a given piece of evidence disagrees with the predominant
theory then automatically people won't talk about it they won't report it and
that means that science fails to progress in the way that one would hope
dinosaur's leopard tracks on this riverbank 100 million years ago it
humans walk here at the same time next a man who claims these prints are proof
that humans lived with the dinosaurs ever since dinosaurs were first
discovered in the 18th century they fascinating people of all ages the
Tyrannosaurus Rex stood over 30 feet in height he's considered the most
ferocious predator ever to walk the earth a brontosaurus grew to the length
of three city buses he weighed more than nine tons the reign of the dinosaur
ended according to one theory when a giant meteor crashed into the earth the
force of thousands of hydrogen bombs how the dust was raised which blocked the
Sun for years this marked the end of the dinosaurs according to conventional
scientific theory no human beings were alive than to witness these events or were they over a hundred million years
ago the limestone bedrock of the Paluxy River in Texas was a muddy plain it was
here that countless dinosaurs left the footprints to be fossilized and
preserved forever but the tracks of another creature have also been preserved in these banks possibly the
tracks and man archaeologist Carl Bao has led the investigation of these
controversial prints for over 12 years my reaction was one of shock I had heard
of human footprints being found in this locale on the Paluxy near Glen Rose
Texas but I was rather skeptical and here after removing actual rock layers
the team and I excavated a series of dinosaur footprints and 18 and 1/2
inches from one of those dinosaur footprints we excavated a 16 inch human footprint and we excavated 12 foot
in a series and when you find a trail with left right left right pace and
stride the right distance apart then you have to interpret this as belonging to
humankind it's been claimed that the Paluxy River footprints are a hoax carved into the limestone bedrock as a
tourist attraction well we found trails leading under
limestone ledges and actually remove the limestone ledges one slab of rock at a
time and we found that both the dinosaur footprints and the trail of human footprints continued under the rock
ledges this evidence is real today many of the so-called human prints have
fallen victim to erosion and the hands of vandals that Carl Bao is in
possession of one of the most compelling prints ever found we're about to see is
the most controversial artifact at his collection I first saw the verdict print on my initial visit to Glen Rose in 1984
my impression at that time was that it was too perfect but it's clearly a human
footprint demonstrating the heel section the arch the base of the metatarsals the
first great toe 2nd 3rd 4th and 5th toe after our examination of this print we
find that it definitely is in the cretaceous limestone in the same
formation with the dinosaur footprints here we're looking at a cross-section
and we can see very obvious following contours under the great toe and
actually structures under each one where we see the calcite inclusion the force
was concentrated and produced these load-bearing structures which are
exactly what geologists look for we have eliminated the idea that it's carved it
definitely is original impression in the sediment
this is said to be the fossilized finger of a human being it too was reportedly found in the same
strata as the dinosaur tracks dating to over a hundred million years old
it had what appeared to be a nail what appeared to be a cuticle a taper a
humanoid shape after I saw the cat scan there was no longer any room in my mind
for doubt this scan shows the shape of the finger
it shows tissue beneath the skin of the finger it shows the bone it shows the
joints it shows a ligament that tells me this is a human finger the limestone layer that preserved these artifacts is
reportedly dated at around 135 million years old yet as we saw earlier objects
have been found in rock strata much older than this in quick strop South
Africa hundreds of metallic spheres were found by minors in Precambrian strata
said to be a fantastic 2.8 million years old
the controversy centers around the fine grooves encircling some disputes lab
technicians were at a loss to explain how they could have been formed by any
known natural process according to the curator of the clerk's TWRP Museum Rauf
Mars these spheres are a complete mystery they look man-made yet at the
time Earth's history when they came to rest on rock no intelligent life existed
they're like nothing I've ever seen before
author researcher David Hatcher Childress has written numerous articles
on the coexistence of humans and dinosaurs I think that one of the
solutions to the paradox of dinosaurs and people together and the vast discrepancy in time this is the whole
timeline of millions of years versus only thousands of years can be explained
in a cataclysmically geological view of the past where rather than geological
events taking place over millions of years they take place more quickly and what is a million years on a geological
timescale is in fact only say a thousand years and therefore it's going to bring all this dating much closer to us and
make it possible so that in a scientific way man and dinosaurs can have existed
together in the past and in fact dinosaurs can still be alive
today in small numbers in remote areas of the world for instance in 1977 a
Japanese fishing boat of New Zealand brought up out of the water the carcass
of what appeared to be a pliosaur an animal that should have been extinct for millions of years
although the authenticity of this photograph has never been disproved
skeptics who claimed it's nearly the body of a decomposing shark we've seen a
broad range of evidence some of the highly speculative but there are enough well-documented cases to call for a
closer look at the conventional explanation of man's origins the theory of evolutionary England is the
birthplace of evolutions first champion Charles Darwin Darwin's theory of
evolution proposes that simple life forms or species evolve into more
complex disease by accidental changes over long periods of time for example
given 5 million years and eight can evolve into man since Darwin's time his
theory has become central to our understanding of how man came into
existence it's almost universally accepted today but according to science
investigator Richard Milton Darwin's theory of how man evolved from the Apes has some critical problems the building
behind me is London's Natural History Museum it looks rather like a Cathedral or a church and in a way that's what it
is it's a kind of temple so Darwin's theory of evolution
people come to museums like the Natural History Museum to get answers to their
question have we evolved makes do humans and apes share a common ancestor and to
look at an exhibit like this you'd think that question had been answered
decisively yes but the answer is far from decisive in fact this
representation is an interpretation of the fossils the interpretation of one
group of scientists there are are other interpretations but you won't find them
in this museum or any other museum in the world in the
model of the evolutionary tree man and apes are said to share a common ancestor however evidence of that common ancestor
is highly contested that's why it is still called the missing link when
Darwin's theory of evolution was embraced it was assumed that in the next
century and our fossil evidence would be found to prove that man had evolved from
the Apes dominus had promised us a missing link and so they've got to
deliver they've got to come up with one any missing link will do it seems every
so often a skeleton is found in Africa its discoverers described it as being
the missing link the headlines come and go and then later on that skeleton
though those bones are reclassified either as human or as ape and so far the missing link is still missing
one of the most classic examples of this is the story of Java man discovered by
Eugene Du Bois 1892 Dubois discovered a very primitive looking ape-like skull
cap and he discovered this thigh bone about 40 feet away he said well
obviously they must belong to the same creature and that creature walked erect
like a human being and had an ape-like skull so that must be a missing link the Pithecanthropus ape-man so maybe you had
the big ape and a human being living together in Java about a million years
ago the important point to make about the Java man discovery is that it's
based on a speculative leap in which two pieces of evidence are put together in a
way that's not really warranted at the end of his life Dubois realized that the
skull cap belonged to a large ape and the leg bone was from a man nevertheless
Java man was prominently displayed at the Museum of Natural History in New York until 1984 since then it has been
removed today museums all over the world display models that yet another skeleton
they called a missing link the common ancestor of both man and ape Lucy and
the famous australopithecine discovered by Donald Johanson he says she was very
human-like but I was at a conference of anthropologist where many of them were
making a case that she was hardly distinguishable from an April monkey
these bones have been restored to resemble a missing link part human part
8 and Lucy is now thought of as being our long-lost ancestor but this is
merely an interpretation the interpretation of one group those same
bones can be and they have been taken by scientists and identified as simply an
extinct ape nothing to do with us at all newspapers are constantly reporting new
discoveries that add to our understanding of man's origins but so
far conclusive evidence of a missing link has not been found so what happens
to the evolutionary model if the missing link does not exist at all without it
there's little support for man's connection lyrics and the model simply
collapses some people have said to me how can you criticize theory if you
can't if you don't have something to replace it with well I can accept that
if the Emperor hasn't got any clothes on then the Emperor hasn't got any clothes on it's not my fault it seems to me that
if Darwinism is wrong then somebody has got to point the finger next we will
visit the mysterious city of Tiahuanaco altitude of 12 and a half thousand feet
with stones weighing 150 totnes this could be the oldest city in the world
built by civilization as yet unknown in order to unravel the mystery of man's
origins we must follow the path of civilization a civilization is said to have spread from the old world to the
new earth but there is evidence that humans were building cities in the new world thousands of years before history
tells us traditionally the oldest city in the
world is thought to be Jericho in the old world dated to around 8000 BC yet in
South America they so called new world scientists are looking at evidence of a
city that could be twice as old
situated at an altitude of 12 and a half thousand feet Tiahuanaco is one of the
most mysterious cities in the world
traditionally it's thought to have been built by the predecessors of the Incas
2,000 years ago however around the turn of the century
Philippians scholar Arthur posnansky began a 50-year study of the ruins of
Tijuana using the science of astronomy posnansky came to an amazing conclusion he
calculated the Tiahuanaco and constructed more than 17 thousand years
ago long before any civilization was supposed to have existed
posnansky called this fabulous city the cradle of civilization even though the accuracy of posnansky x' measurements
were confirmed by engineers his conclusions about the age of Tiahuanaco
have never been accepted kneel steady a Mesoamerican archeologist decided to
reopen this controversial investigation I met with dr. Oswaldo Rivera who is
head of Bolivian archaeology the doctor though he disagrees with posnansky
findings was more than willing to help in every way possible so that we could
retrace posnansky steps
Neal visited dr. Rivera's newest excavation site the UH Capano pyramid
today it's mostly ruined but the base is miraculously preserved and still
testifies to the advanced capability of its builders the facing stones of this
site are perfectly set with no mortar we took a needle and that needle we tried
to insert at every point along the joint and the needle couldn't be inserted perfect one of the most baffling
questions for preczewski was why they built Tiahuanaco with such precision
this he felt was an important clue to the age of the structure now the
ancients constructed the site with astronomical alignments in mind as the
Sun rises each day it moves along the horizon and arises in a different spot
to measure this movement they built the temple itself as a giant clock to tell
them how the progression of the Sun was proceeding and we can use those same astronomical alignments to date the site
posnansky observed that on the first day of spring Sun rose exactly in the center
of the temple through the archway and based in the layout of the temple he
used that on the first days of winter and summer the Sun should rise directly
over each the huge cornerstones but he found this was not the case the position
of the Sun was for some reason slightly outside to the corner markers he
wondered what that reason was a key whenever you notice he Dallas in
tiahuanaco and in the other ancient sites surrounding it the architecture is
perfectly aligned to the cardinal points the buildings are deliberately oriented to the cardinal points but if we measure
each building precisely we will find errors I believe these are simple
Earth's of construction not at all related to the date of construction
after observing the perfection with which this site is built with hundred
tons stones to suggest that such things as the solstice markers are misaligned I
find incredible no I think the solstice markers were probably very precisely
located as everything else in the site and in fact this is the very argument that posnansky used to calculate the
antiquity of the site by measuring the angle of the corner stones and comparing
that angle to today's sunrise position posnansky was able to calculate the
Tiahuanaco was built 17,000 years ago at that time they tilted the Earth's axis
was slightly different than it is today so the summer and winter Suns would have
risen directly above the ancient cornerstones the only correction that I would make is that we now have better
astronomical measurements due to satellites and computers and I would
suspect the date would be more like 12,000 years ago but that still makes
Tiahuanaco the oldest city known on the face of the earth
in his chronicles of Peru written in the 1600s Garcia de la Vega wrote that when
the Spanish first arrived in South America they asked the Incas who built this incredible city of Tiahuanaco did
you build it the Incas in coal in fact they laughed
at the idea they said we had nothing to do with it
this was built thousands of years before our time
the current view says that man arrived in South America around 15,000 years ago
a wandering hunter-gatherer yet the evidence we've seen suggests that
Tiahuanaco was designed by an advanced civilization a chance discovery reveals
just how advanced they may have been while restoring the ancient temple of
Pumapunku dr. Rivera and his team discovered a long-lost secret of the
ancient builders they found a strange depression between two blocks of stone
upon clearing out the debris they noticed the unmistakable limit of metal
whoever built Tiahuanaco came up with a very ingenious method for holding
together the huge stones which they used to built the site they carved a groove
in the edge and into this groove they would pour a molten alloy which later
hardened into a staple but I find amazing here is that to move
to each site where the staple was needed they had to have something like a
portable smelting plant to maintain this metal in a molten state mysterious metal
clamps revealed a level of technology far beyond their time the antiquity and
the technological sophistication of Tiahuanaco should make each and every
one of us fully question the origins of civilization
where did the ancient Tijuana guns learn this complex process the answer may lie
halfway around the world at one of man's most mysterious monuments the Great
Sphinx of Egypt is it possible that there was an advanced civilization on
this planet thousands of years before history tells us investigative
journalist Graham Hancock considers this to be very real possibility he's dedicated nine years of his life to
tracking down the evidence this monument is one of a category of monuments from
all over the world these monuments have certain things in common
first and foremost enormous blocks of stone gigantic weighing hundreds of tons
secondly very precise scientific astronomical alignments and thirdly the
greatest mystery of all we don't know the who built these monoliths handcar
the points to a number of sites throughout the world which exhibit gigantic stone construction this is
called megalithic architecture the immense fortress of sacsayhuamán in
Peru is comprised of individual granite stones some weighing 360 tons that's the
equivalent of two diesel locomotives
the Osirian in Egypt is made of tremendous pillars of red Aswan granite
some of which weigh over a hundred tons my own view is that what we're looking
at here is a common influence that touched all of these places long before
recorded history began a remote third party civilization unidentified by
historians that had a presence in Mexico that had a presence in South America
that had a presence in Egypt and elsewhere and but left behind a legacy
of knowledge in all of those places
in 1993 an independent Egyptologist John Anthony West shocked the world with
geological evidence that the Sphinx in Egypt could be 12,000 years old recently
astronomer engineer Robert Bauval using a computer model of the Giza Plateau
made a startling discovery which seems to confirm this ancient age of the Sphinx in very simple terms the first
thing that one realises when you look at the pyramids of giza is that they're
designed along astronomical principles we're finding that the astronomy is
leading us to conclude that the Sphinx was erected in 10,500 BC and this
matches exactly with the ideas that have been developed in the geological
analysis business so there are two hard sciences now indicating that the Sphinx
could be very very old and going back to the 11th millennium BC
according to Graham Hancock Tiahuanaco and the sinks were both built around
12,000 years ago they may have had a common source consider these
similarities between the Americas and Egypt both that huge pyramids precisely
aligned to the cardinal points temples with megalithic stones with extremely
fine joints of less than at 50th of an inch both Egypt in the Americas used
royal headdresses and similar style both employed a unique style of construction
using l-shaped corners both use the same style of metal clamps to hold huge
stones in place and both cultures use the process of mummification to preserve
and honor their debt these compelling similarities between Egypt and the
Americas suggest to some that a sophisticated group of seafaring people
crossed the Atlantic thousands of years before Columbus a collection of ancient
maps suggests they may have had a knowledge of the world which has never
been explained in 1929 rolled up on a dusty shelf in a library in
Constantinople in Turkey a map was found this map had been drawn in 1513 by a Turkish Admiral Admiral piri Reis
the strange thing about this map is it shows features of the earth but nobody
in 1513 should have been able to know before the 18th century sailors ran the
risk of crushing their ships onto rocky coastlines because they lacked one thing the ability to calculate longitude for
that you need an extremely accurate clock
it wasn't until 1790 that the first accurate marine timepiece was invented
and sailors could pinpoint their position on the seas yet two hundred and
fifty years before this clock was made during recent drawn a map which showed
the coastlines of Africa and South America
within a half a degree of longitude and as piri Reis himself told us that knowledge was not his knowledge it was
knowledge that he'd borrowed and copied from earlier maps and he stated on the
map that it was based on more than 20 source maps and that some of these maps
went back to the time of Alexander the Great or even earlier in other words two
before the time of Christ so the mystery is where did these source maps come from
who charted the globe long ages of girls with an accuracy that we ourselves can
hardly match today a professor of science at Charles Hapgood was combing
through the map room at the Library of Congress when he made his startling
discovery as my eyes fell upon the southern
hemisphere of a world map drawn by a rum pious Phinehas in 1532 I had the instant
conviction that I had found here a truly authentic map of the real Antarctica the mystery of this map is it shows
Antarctica as it looks under the ice long before Antarctica is even supposed to have been discovered and perhaps the
greatest mystery of all is that it shows the Antarctic Peninsula not as it looks
today covered by more than a mile of ice but as it actually looks underneath that
covering of ice now we ourselves have only known what the land under the
Antarctic Peninsula really looks like since 1958 when seismic surveys were
taken across the ice cap Hapgood put his theory to the test he compared the
erroneous Phinehas map with the map of Antarctica as it looks covered with ice the maps were similar
but details of the coastline were obscured by the ice then using a map
created by seismographic survey he was able to compare the actual coastlines of Antarctica with the erroneous Phinehas
map when the maps were overlaid the similarities astounded him clearest
deduction of all is that whoever drew up those original source maps thousands of
years ago had a level of technology as high as our own they had explored the
whole globe from north to south and from east to west
so this is testimony of an advanced and as-yet-unidentified civilization in
remote prehistory a woolly mammoth was frozen so quickly that its last meal of
buttercups remained fresh in its stomach for thousands of years this sudden drop
in temperature may be a clue to the disappearance of the unidentified
civilization Plato called Atlantis if a technologically advanced culture
did live on the earth thousands of years ago what happened to the Greek
philosopher Plato described an advanced civilization and legend was preserved by Egyptian priests as the story goes
Atlantis was a great Empire of engineers and scientists who were in many ways
more technologically advanced than we are today it was destroyed 12,000 years
ago by floods and earthquakes forcing and survivors to seek refuge all over
the world for centuries scientists and explorers have searched in vain for a
continent that fits plato's description of Atlantis
so far no sign of this vast island empires been found some say it sank into
the Atlantic Ocean others said was destroyed by the volcanic eruption of
Thera in the Mediterranean but researcher ran flemeth the leads he's
found a location that no one else has ever considered Atlantis he says is
buried under two miles of ice up until now the search for Atlantis has been
restricted to two bodies of water the Mediterranean Sea in the North Atlantic
but Atlanta is said to have been in the real ocean and we now understand that
the world has only one ocean the world ocean in the middle of that ocean is
Antarctica it's right smack in the middle and this is where we believe that
the mapping of the our the earth took place it's most famously known as
Atlantis today Antarctica is a frozen wasteland virtually uninhabitable according to
geologists it's been buried under ice for almost two million years how could
any civilization have thrive there only twelve thousand years ago a surprising
discovery in Siberia may hold the answer in 1977 a Russian bulldozer operator
noticed a block of muddy ice containing a curious dark mass on closer inspection
he was amazed to see the contours of a small elephant like creature he had
discovered a perfectly preserved woolly mammoth the kind of zone of death all
over the northern hemisphere northern Siberia and northern Canada we find the
frozen carcasses of hundreds of thousands of large mammal species mainly
mammoths but also woolly rhinos and other creatures of this kind and when
their stomach contents are examined as they have been their fanta have been
grazing on warm weather vegetation and yet they're now positioned extremely
close to the North Pole the only theory which really explains this mystery is the theory of crustal displacement that
the land that they were on was shoved into a much colder climate very suddenly
professor Charles Hapgood was fascinated with the fact that thousands of animals
could be frozen completely in a brief moment in geological time and that
ancient maps of Antarctica suggest that it too was frozen over very quickly for
how good this could only be explained in one way that entire continents could rapidly change positions on the planet
about 12,000 years ago there was a displacement of the Earth's crust the
entire outer shell of the earth moved something like two thousand miles and
when the Earth's crust shifted all of Antarctica is encapsulated by the polar
zone and at the same time North America is released from the Arctic Circle and
becomes tempered so we have ice melting in North America ice forming in
Antarctica when Professor Hapgood first proposed
this theory it was met with silence from the scientific community with one notable exception dr. Albert Einstein
I find your arguments very impressive and had the impression that your
hypothesis is correct one can hardly doubt that significant shifts of the crust of the earth have taken place
repeatedly and within a short time this controversial theory is based on a well
accepted fact the individual continents have been slowly drifting apart for
millions of years this is possible because the outer crust of the earth
floats upon a semi liquid layer hapgoods theory of crustal displacement takes
this principle one step further it states that the entire crust of the
earth can shift in one piece like the loose skin of an orange how could documented 3 earth crust displacement in
the last hundred thousand years we believe that they happen every 41,000
years last one happened 11 1/2 thousand years ago so we're not due for another
earth crust displacement for 29 and a half thousand years
according to half-wits theory this cataclysmic shift is caused by an
imbalance of ice and polar caps over time ice builds up at the poles reaching
as much as two miles and thickness the tremendous weighted the ice causes an imbalance on the globe the ice shifts
dragging the outer crust and the continents in one piece to new positions
the polar caps are now in a warmer climate where they begin to melt while
temperate lands are in the polar regions where they freeze and build up ice it
hep Goods theory is possible and land masses can suddenly shift 2,000 miles it
might explain how an entire continent and its people could have been lost to history I am convinced by the evidence
that we are a species with amnesia we have forgotten something of great
importance from our own past when we recover it will realize for a start that
our civilization isn't the apex of creation it isn't the pinnacle towards
which everything has been building throughout all of geological time rather
it's part of an up and down flow that it's possible for a civilization to
reach a very high level of advancement and be wiped out this is something we've
never really confronted and we need to confront it we met the experts and
looked at the evidence that seems to contradict our conventional theories
about the human race numerous artifacts indicate to some scientists that man could be millions of years old throwing
into question our descent from the Apes ancient maps and megalithic architecture
suggest that an advanced culture may have existed 12,000 years ago their
homeland wiped out by a cataclysm arranging the entire face of the flat
it's been said that man has made decline from Stone Age to civilization more than
once and that our present time is just the latest in this cycle but only if the evidence is allowed to speak for itself
will we ever learn the truth about the mysterious origins of man
you
