As Abraham Lincoln is also quoted as saying, "You can't believe everything you see on the internet".
And I'm sure he wrote volumes about vampires!
First they say the denisovens were giants, then they say they rode horses. Ancient horses most likely wouldn't have been able to carry an adult human, let alone a giant, until after many generations of selective breeding.
"Look at my horse, my horse is amazing..."
@@theangryholmesian4556 Henry V? French conversation during meal prior to their attack?
even the horses of the medieval era were pretty small compared to the modern day horses we have.
ancient horses had eight legs and could run at the speed of light I read it in a scientifuc journal called the poetic edipus.
There’s a reason chariot warfare was used before mounted warfare…easier on a horse to pull a vehicle that supports its riders weight on wheels than it is to support a rider.
Btw that Lincoln quote is about Mammoths and Mastodons. “But still there is more. It calls up the indefinite part. When Columbus first sought this continent - when Christ suffered on the Cross - when Moses led Israel through the Red Sea - nay even when Adam first came from the hand of his Maker, - then as now, Niagara was roaring here. The eyes of that species of extinct giants whose bones fill the Mounds of America, have gazed on Niagara as ours do now. Contemporary with the whole race of men, and older than the first man Niagara is strong and fresh today as ten thousand years ago. The mammoth and mastodon now so long dead, that fragments of their monstrous bones alone testify, that they ever lived, have gazed on Niagara. In that long, long time, never still for a single moment. Never dried, never froze, never slept, never rested.”
Except for the fact that humans not mastodon were buried in mounds so probably not referring to animals no
@@dannytunz6993 he literally said “the mammoths and mastodons” that’s the actual quote
www.loc.gov/resource/mal.4167500/?st=text
@@supersaiyanluigi5858 yes but the giants bones remark was a whole sentence and therefore should represent a single thought and its ambiguous at best If it is related to the following statement about mammoths or if that is its own statement. I'm not saying that he meant the bones of literally giant people but possible figuratively giant people but probably people due the the fact that there were no mammoths buried in mound, people were buried in mounds
@@supersaiyanluigi5858 and the fact that I both statements he talks about giants who's bones fill minds gazing on Niagra and then alter mastodon gazing on Niagra, it is not really indicative of the way Lincoln spoke or people spoke at the time for that matter, why repeat himself? From how it is written they seem to he independent statements
Quote mining at its finest.
"Anthropologists are UNEASY because it shows a depth of understanding and beauty in their culture that really shouldn't have existed in such early hominins." Are they though? Are they really? Are they so UNEASY with another hominin species appreciating pretty things and art and beauty? If anything, I bet you cash money that anthropologists would be super excited to know of another hominin species that had a more human understanding of art. That would be exciting and would be a huge story to add to our collection!

Someone should do an ancient aliens video on cathedrals being space lasers built by aliens, just to lampoon the logic they use.
No! Because if you do a lampoon of these "theories" you can be absolutely sure the Q-anon crowd will take it as sober truth.
They might already have said something like that...
@@magpiecity No, because those cathedrals were built by Europeans and these people tend to not question white people's achievements. I think the only time they ever did something like thats as the Blarney Stone in Ireland.
I also want to point out that as we see in actual human giants, like Andre the giant, their bodies could not handle the stress of picking up large items, not only do their hearts often give out because they cant pump enough blood for their massive bodies, but they are also riddled with bone deformities and massive amounts of joint pain. There is no way a human that could be big enough to pick up that big of stones would actually be able to pick up that big of stones. Andre could barely even pick up a small human women without it doing damage to his bones and joints.
Something about bone and muscle fiber density..
I think your fact checkers need to learn to read...Andre the giant was tremendously strong. Please stop trying to make an ass of yourself.. attempting to sound smart by pulling "facts" out of your ass does nothing for your credibility
Not to accidentally lead any credence to anyone proposing actual giants, But the Giants in the Game of Thrones TV Series (not sure about the books) actually have specific adaptations for gigantism. Extreme robustisity in the legs, Elephant like feet where they walk on their toes with giant fleshy pads. You can't just scale up a Homo Sapiens to giant size, but there's no reason that Giant humans couldn't evolve with the right enviornmental pressures. Again This is all about fantasy giants from a fiction book. I don't believe in Giants.
'The presence of straight lines indicates that nature couldn't have made this'
*a few minutes later*
'The presence of curves indicates that nature couldn't have made this'
I love it when a statement like "There are no straight lines in nature" is made. It makes me think that the person making the statement has never been outside before.

That Lincoln quote is used in a misleading way. The sentence preceding it mentions Columbus, Christ, Moses, and Adam, suggesting the "giants" Lincoln references are the great men of the past, including the great men of the native inhabitants of North America, rather than literal giants. Megalith! Oh no! Not the megalith!!! There's a rock wall like that near Tuolomne Meadows in Yosemite National Park. Amazing what glaciers can do over geological time spans!
Ah, yes, the art of quote mining.
I thought he was talking about dinosaurs XD
Well, at least it's more sly than using Isaac Newton's "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants” although, I wouldn't put it beneath them to use that one either, their audacity knows no bounds.
@@roddydelipsa1769
The following line could indicate he was referring to megafauna: “The Mammoth and Mastadon---now so long dead, that fragments of their monstrous bones, alone testify, that they ever lived, have gazed on Niagara.”
The idea that ancient people couldn't cut a straight line or stack rocks into a wall is mind bogglingly ridiculous. I would totally like to have an anti-gravity ray gun, though.
Ages ago there was a BBC documentary, where they went to Egypt and got some locals to make a small pyramid using ony technology from the appropriate time.
They made a very good job of moving large heavy blocks, and fitting them tightly together.
Admittedly they ran out of time to finish it by hand, and brought the JCBs in.
Agree with your post, but if you ignore the first part and run with "I would totally like to have an anti-gravity ray gun, though." You'll get on gaia TV.
@@kevinshort3943
Now if they weren't doing it voluntarily/for fun but, being commanded by an absolute despot, and if we weren't talking about a small team but the resources and manpower of an entire nation, well you get the idea...
@hopelessnerd6677 - Sure the ancients could build big and tall, but THAT ancient as the Denisovans were? Gotta draw a line!
Bit disappointed that spaceships with anti-gravity rays weren't mentioned - it's the only way that such huge blocks of stone could have been moved - you know it makes sense!
What, you've never heard of the telekinetic hamster theories?
It certainly couldn't have been those of non-European decent achieving anything! It's just common sense that Aliens would have expended tens of thousands of years and the matter equal to that of several planets to arrive here to....move rocks. Because PoC in the past couldn't have...moved large rocks...I just can't do it anymore! Why are all these people such wacko racists? This is one of the worst Venn diagrams and Gaia TV is where weirdos (the bad kind), alien enthusiasts, and flat out racists meet and produce poor quality "content." It is as bad as it is gross as it is inaccurate.
@@stevewebber707 Wonderful - I think there's a great deal of mileage in that - although perhaps it needs to be expanded to include rodents in general to account for Stonehenge, Egyptian pyramids and the various South American sites. Was Stonehenge built by druids wielding telekinetic rabbits? has a certain ring to it!
If small furry animals had that much power, they'd be our Uber-cute Overlords!
@@stevewebber707 Don't forget that hamsters 🐹 have teeny tiny adorable thumbs! They could definitely press buttons on spaceships too.

Altai is about a thousand miles from the Urals.
The term Cyclopean masonry was coined to describe the walls surrounding Mycenaean palaces, which, according to myth, were built by the Cyclops (just like Valhalla was built by giants).
Cyclopean walls were so-called by the ancient Greeks to refer to walls in citadels of every more ancient Greeks, such as at Mycenae. They thought that such walls could not have been built by mere humans, and must have been constructed by cyclopses.
They kept finding these Mastadon bones and thought the nose hole for the elephant was an Occipital ring for a single eye.
After an evening watching war footage, it was a distinct pleasure to run across your latest wonderful video debunking idiocy.
Even if there were Denisovans who were 7 or 8 feet tall, that still doesn't give them a sufficiently greater ability to move ginormous blocks of stone. Now if they were 50 to 100 feet tall . . . . . ?
But, as you said, where are the bones?
Of course all of the people appearing in this documentary are experts in the necessary fields of study.
I know, right? If I was the target audience of that video, I would be angry that they are insulting my intelligence. Maybe some people just enjoy being bull shitted.
Maybe they'll start to say attack on titan is historic soon lol
There is also the "Darwin Conspiracy" documentary.

How many of the guests on this show also appeared in Ancient Aliens?
Also, I really like the style of this video.
Also, also, how does the mere existence of Denisovan DNA prove that giants existed?
"How many of the guests on this show also appeared in Ancient Aliens?"
Only the ones that wrote a book about it. So, all of them.
"how does the mere existence of Denisovan DNA prove that giants existed?"
Because it just does. The truth is they want you to believe them without getting bogged down with minor details like, facts, science, or reality. How else are they going to sell their books without a little faith? It worked for Creationists.
@@Stevenisbelieven I see. What is the world coming to? Critical thinking? Sheesh!
@@starRunnerX Those who think criticallly are often not the ones who make the psudo science claims... That all those who can't think at all, will believe.
Most exciting to me has been the H. naledi find in Rising Star Cave, but moreso because of the sheer inaccessibility of the place requiring six tiny cavers to excavate, than what the fossils themselves may have revealed.
A bit like the unicorns storie
Probably some dudes man cave...
Well... Cyclopian building is just a LITTLE bit associated with giants since the name comes from people believing they were built by cyclops. But, etymology aside, assuming it for real is an insult to the original builders.
The thing I took away from Gaia's video:
7' tall Denisovans riding on a small pony sized horse.
I'm sort of hoping it was really a thing, because it makes me laugh, but poor horsey!
Better it didn't happen
OOOH I know...Maybe Denisovans were wiped out by Homo peta for animal cruelty.

@@tkat6442 According to Wallace, possibly Wensleydale or Stilton.
I can relay that I personally saw a queso fresco at the store that not only was round like the moon, but displayed irregular cratering as well. Oh, and it was flat in cross-section. Clear evidence. 😂
This reminds me of the Ancient Aliens program where all the "experts" they bring on are authors and they only ever bring on an actual scientist to explain something like "this is how gravity works".
"The moon strikes me as a gouda." Why did this make me laugh?
@alphamarshan - And she SMOKED that gouda!
Everyone knows that the Denisovans homonyms grew rapidly just like the dinosaurs they shared the flat Earth with and used alien octopus' with "lasers" to move the perfectly shaped stones then they flew on pterodactyls to Egypt and built the great pyramids.
I want to live in the same world that you do!
lol
How else could the homonyms cope with the multi-kilometre-high trees?
Have you been reading my dissertation!?!
Couple thoughts on "straight lines" in geology from a Kentucky caver: the limestone we find caves in around here is, like all limestone, an ancient relict seafloor, which lies in layers that are just about as flat as you could ask for, over tens or hundreds of miles. So a cross section proile up and down through those layers in one dimension, and any pair of compass directions in the other, is going to have straight (and parallel) lines all over it.
The limestone layers may not lie on the level anymore, as they did while being formed, because of geological uplift, which can lift one edge of a plateau higher than the surrounding terrain. We call the newly formed "downhill" direction the regional dip.
That uplift places more stress on the lifted edge and strain on the not-lifted edge. Where there's a zone of weakness, a vertical crack (small local fault) may form, which will tend to extend along the "strike" direction, along the surface, at right angles to the dip direction. The process is analogous to the way a piece of ceramic or glass will preferentially break along the direction of a small scratch. This produces all kinds of straight lines, on all sorts of scales, from meters to miles.
Surface erosion may have obscured these features, but we can see what's going on under the surface, thanks to cave survey work. We can go in there and survey the cave system, enter the numbers and the sketch into the computer, and make maps. (We can also map the potentiometric surface of the water table by drilling test wells in spots where there are no known cave passages.) Locally, we see all kinds of beautiful curving passages, their shapes guided by small local changes in the rock's composition and orientation at the time it was laid down on the ancient seafloor, and the past solutional history of the cave can amplify new small changes into great ones over the millions of years of the cave's formation.
But, we also see regional trends in the entire map of a large cave system like Mammoth, and one would have to be a blind Kentucky Cave Shrimp to miss the straight lines all over the place. Indeed, we rely on the consistencies of such trends to guide further exploration and discovery. We look at two known cave passages, that are straight in line with each other, so that you can take a ruler to the map and lay it along both of them, with a gap in between. The original discoverers are dead of old age, and the remote ends of the two passages are 14 and 18 hours' travel from their respective entrances. Are they really two portions of the same passage? People get excited and go in there to look, when we see trends like that.
I absolutely loved the " bring me the bones" that's perfect thank you
Have you read the Clan of the Cave Bear? It basically has the early human main character creating every single cool thing we had discovered up to that point. (She discovers fire! And domesticates a horse! And also a big cat!)
Don't forget, she also introduced The Patriarchy™ to early sapiens!
That series... Ugh. I think after a while Jean Auel herself started to get bored of writing them. Somewhere between The Mammoth Hunters and The Shelters of Stone the stupid train really went off the rails. I was so done reading the damn mother goddess song repeated multiple times in the same book. I'm also pretty sure she copy-pasted an entire scene from one book into another, something about preparing an herbal remedy.
Props to Auel for learning flint knapping and other archaic skills, though; that is an impressive feat. The Clan of the Cave Bear remains an excellent, well researched work of fiction and I would still recommend it to anyone... with the caveat that they don't read any of the following books.
I remember it struck me as a giant fanfic repository for all the cool things she was learning, plus the self-fulfillment of getting to live on your own with cool animal companions and spend time with sexy sexy Jondalar.
(I think that was the male love interest’s name. It’s been awhile)
I never saw the appeal of Jondalar as a character or why he was always held up as god's gift to women when he was a whiny, demanding man-baby. Their relationship was problematic to say the least. In the last book I did something I've never done before: I literally threw the book. That's how much Jondalar pissed me off. I still haven't recovered, lol.
Oh, and don't forget their little Renesmee clone, Jonayla! She was such an über-kind that Ayla didn't have to lower herself to change diapers like some plebe.
@@asenseofyarning5614 I am right there with you on how much Jondalar pissed me off. Reminds me now of my Ex now that I think about it. I think she should have chosen the dark guy that had come from the south.
Well she was taught how to make a friction fire. It was figuring out that you could strike iron pyrite and flint to make sparks that she figured out.
I for one, welcome our Giant overlords. Maybe they can help save the earth and the species from the stupidity of homosapiens.

Actually a fun thing is many of those giant skeleton pictures can actually be traced back to a Photoshop competition I think back in 2007 or 2008. Either way one of the best gun ones in my opinion like there was one image that was almost perfect except for the shovel otherwise it was pretty much perfect
There are some older ones. The Argosy magazine in the 70's was making giant photo pics when trick photography was a very different and more difficult skill than photoshop.
@@leekestner1554 I was aware of that thank you for the reminder though.
@@leekestner1554 Didn't know what magazine it was, knew there was older ones. But I didn't know all the details surrounding it.
Maybe cyclops from xmen carved them out with his laser eyes 👀
"Eyes" plural? What part of Cyclopian do you not understand? ;)
I'd just like to point out that one of the most distinctive traits of cyclopean masonry is it's frequent use of stones of UNUSUAL and IRREGULAR shapes and sizes which interlock. I have a feeling someone just really liked the sound of "cyclopean."
25:43 - - So Freddy Silva expects us to "look much different" in only 50, 100 or 1000 years from now? That's almost Ken Ham/YEC levels of evolutionary change.
I saw no evidence that these "walls" surrounded an open living area. They showed a couple "tunnels" that didn't seem to go anywhere, but nobody went into the "tunnels" to find the inside of this "human built building." Sure looks to me like this is the outside surface of a huge cliff, without even a cave behind it. And even though the Denisovan cave is not really close, if you look at the picture of the cave opening, to the right are "blocks" very similar in shape to the ones in question. Huh. Maybe just indications this is the natural geology of this region?
Shhh... don't bother them with such little things like facts!
The editing was carefully done so we would assume certain things belong together. That cave could've been thousands of miles away. And of course they were alternating natural and artificial "blocks" of stone in the hopes that we would blur the clear distinctions between them.
I am not a scientist, I am a recovering Gaia addict. I have to watch your videos as part of my recovery. I can't thank you enough for creating content that helps me to reorganize my critical thinking skills, and form opinions based on evidence and facts.

Welcome back from the wilderness.
Wow that intro animation was epic! I thought it was somehow related to the video, that was the most work I've seen done on a UA-cam video creator intro ever. You're so talented.
I remember reading the Book of Jubilee talking about the Giants of Genesis. More than likely this story was taken directly off of the Greek Titan stories.
Any unicorns about?
The bible has many races of giants for some reason: The Canaanites, the Philistines, the Nephilim, Amalekites, Hittites and many more. Some didn't exist and some are known to be of normal stature like the Canaanites, which were actually once the same tribe as the Jews. Who knows why the bible is so obsessed with giants.
That play acting geologist/archeologist phone call was so freaking funny, oh my god. Your sense of humour is awesome!
I don't think it's mobile, but Taisun; a giant Chinese crane, can lift over 20'000 tons.
So 3'000+ is far from impossibly heavy for a lot of cranes that exist today.

Cyclopean, does refer to giants, specifically Cyclops the giant one eyed servants of Hephaestus, Whose skulls were found in Crete and belonged to Deinotherium giganteum, which were bigger relatives of modern elephants.
But most people even those unaware of the elephant connection, realize the term is just a tool to makewritting more colorful like Brobdingnagian, herculean and whopping.

First, the moon is clearly not made of gouda. It’s obviously made of an ashed goat cheese given it’s white and grey color. Secondly, that bracelet and ring are parts of a saddle and stirrups and the needle was used to sew the saddle for the giant cave horses that proliferated in the region amongst the giant homonyms. 🙄

No straight lines in nature? Dude clearly hasn't seen the Giants Causeway in Eire, or any dried up lake with a muddy bottom, or a sedimentary deposit, or Bamboo, or.......
How could it possibly help to be 2m tall to move 1000t heavy stone blocks? A fingerbone from a cave 600km away proves they were giants of 2m height and presumably the super genius builder of a quite sensless pile of heavy blocks? What do they smoke, i want that stuff too.
Ah, even 4m. OK, if i were 4m i definetely would carry around those blocks and just pile them up for the fun of it.
Erika, versus, non-sense. Fight!
Straight lines routinely occur in nature - especially along crystalline boundaries and these can be exhibited on very large scales.

Excellent take down of the silly gobbledygook
Great job! I love your commentary and sense of humor. Apparently, Gaia and their "researchers" specialize in speculation.
To all the ppl that think finding a giant skeleton or bone is evidence for a race or species of giants....
I present, Robert Wadlow. 8' 11" (2.7 meters). Life 1918 - 1940. One giant person here and there would in no way indicate a giant race of ppl.
There are no straight lines and orthogonals in nature? Poppycock, I give you limestone pavements with their clients and grikes, and the vertical hexagonal basalt columns of the Giant's Causeway and Fingall's Cave in the Hebrides.
No straight lines in nature? WTF? Beams of light, crystals, fracture lines, fucking TREE TRUNKS, any stratified layer in rock, sand, dirt or ice... slate, the giant's causeway... just off the top of my head, as a layman!
I guess they have never seen basalt columns. Why are people who don't know things so sure they know things.....
Well, this show lied, in that it didn't have giants in this movie.
Off topic: Have you taken the Spice as depicted by the SF series "Dune?" Mind you, I don't believe that. It's just that the reflection off your glasses makes it appear that way.
On topic: Just because we don't understand how something was done, either because lost technology or techniques, doesn't mean giants or aliens had to do it.
@ 18:25 Just based on what little I know, modern humans did interbreed with both Denisovans and Neanderthals, possibly absorbing their populations into our own. Personally, I find that possibility fascinating. So, in some sense, they still live in us.
I ain't gonna trust no [geologist], they just be lyin' and gettin' me pissed.
Why is it that programs like this are always very heavy on speculations but provide little or no evidence in support of said speculations?
Very cool great fun & very entertaining take down of some genuine nonsense.
H.P.. Lovecraft just loved Cyclopean masonry. I wonder if these guys are also looking for the Necronomicon.
You're right! The Moon must have an artisanal rind like wood ash on goat cheese. I must go make a video to prove my hypothesis.
I will be your Igor if you pay me in goat cheese.
Man, I am picking up a strong "I wanna believe" vibe off these Gaia guys.

Yeah it gets very, very messy but it's great fun. Here, have a go! **hands you a baseball bat and points at a bashed up horse corpse**
Sadly, that horse just won't die.
I would also like to point out that the tall elves you are talking about are the exclusive product of the imagination of J.R.R. Tolkien(where elves were a part of a list of species and creatures that are broadly considered to be racist caricatures based on the imperialist eugenics of his time and country), whereas real folklore elves are short 'little people' like you would think of at Santa's Workshop or making cookies for Keebler. Surely any folklore Elves that existed during the time of the Neanderthals and Denisovans would have been of the traditional short magical creatures that live in nature variety.
I am offended by your western imperialist Elf propaganda.
The "little people" version of elves are themselves a diminution of older versions of faerie folk - tracing back to the sidhe or the Tuatha de Danaan. Tolkien was actually looking back to older legends than the folklore elves of his day.
Though of course most of our modern conception does owe a lot to him.
Hey J R R Tolkien was very pro-Jewish which is a feat especially considering everyone else in his time were very anti-semitic so shut up
