Maaan I'd love to watch this video but almost 2 hours. I can't spend that much time. I understand it may take that long to go through it all in depth but maybe make clips or something. You could have another channel for clips and increase your revenue. Just a thought.
You were waaay too polite to "drunk uncle" (SNL joke...) Randall Carlson. I appreciate your restraint. You are a good communicator even when claims are just plain silly.
I fail to see the purpose of Randall's nonsense... Is it books and speeches? Does ''silly'' really gather the kind of audience to turn a profit? Odd.
He’s making bank. Rogan has such huge reach there’s no way he ain’t. My guess is trust the von dannikans and all the others eventually realize it’s bullshit but by then it’s their job.
If I was getting rich looking for Bigfoot I’d probably keep looking no matter what I knew
What do you think of my Magic Numbers, you know what Magic says when you play it in reverse, "Wisdom".
Recently an ostrich egg. With three pyramids scrated on it. Has been dated at 7,000 years old.
It's almost like the ancient French encoded the size of the globe into the metric system. How could they have done this?
They probably came up with the metric system first, then they built the Earth.
Yeah we French are really REALLY smart !!! 😂😂😂

Oh sweet, it's out.
If anyone wants to know more about the math side, I'm happy to answer questions.
Thanks for the time you took to prepare for and appear in this video Kaitlyn!
Thank you for taking the time to respond to our questions. I am a bit confused by something that WoA said. Isn't the radius of an object measured from the center to the outer circumference? The radius of earth is 3,963 miles but WoA says some crazy number in the 400k + range. 52:23 ish minutes into the video. Did i miss something?
@@mattking993 I think he meant to say the radius of the sun, not Earth.
Thanks, Kaitlyn! This should be pinned on top, I propose.
Okay, why you believe only europeans can measure the Earth? I checked Randalls claim, its true to 99,94% (NASA) no coincidence.
Sacred Geometry classes seem perfect for anybody who failed an actual geometry.
Sacred geometry is to math what playdough is to marble sculpting.
Ignorance is no excuse.
@@hedgehog3180 Ignorance is no excuse
Measuring by feet to 3 decimal points is a silly way to measure something
Even more so when done by people that use neither imperial measurements nor the decimal system lol
I really think the term”bullshit baffles brains” is very apt here
100 percent. "This is complex and I don't understand it, therefore it must be profound."
Which paper shows the entire Giza complex to be completely flooded for thousands of years? The cited works don’t show that
@@Tucker93669 Agreed, my research is showing that it was tropical between 20,000- 10,000 years ago. Did not find anything saying it was completely flooded... What we do know is that there was a long period of time, that it took on water damage and it could not have been in the last 5,500 years because their was no such rail fall to create that kind of deterioration.
Brava Bravo
yeah you were bullshitted in school and your brain was baffled
Excellent! these long-form "Myths of Ancient History" videos are always outstanding!
My favorites by far
Your commentary between the 2 Egyptian architects was gold 👍
There aren't compliments strong enough to express how much I appreciate everything about your channel
Yesss! Thank you for doing this at this length in this format. So great.
The odds don't matter for a coincidence if you're working backwards. As Terry Pratchett said, "Magicians have calculated that million-to-one chances crop up nine times out of ten."
Well, that is a quote worth remembering.
Exactly!
Pretty sure a Greek man centuries ago figured out the size of the Earth using shadows.
He didn’t need a pyramid for that. 🤦🏼
He had to use shadows ... absent minded ole goat left the calculator back in the cave.

@@_MikeJon_ I have thought about debunking some stuff though it can be tricky. The younger dryas video I made is sort of a debunking video

@@MossyMozart I know it. Great content too.
If the Sphinx had writing all over it as recently as 900 ad and its gone now seems more like an argument for a quickly-disintegrating sculpture than an everlasting one
Made even worse by modern day air pollution.
The casing stones which would have been where the hieroglyphs would have been have been removed.
As noted by others Egyptian sites were cannibalized in the 14th and 19th Centuries as I recall for their stone - specifically any white Tura limestone casing stones etc.. These were stolen so as to build other things like forts and Mosques around Egypt. The grand Mosques of Cairo as an example were built from limestone taken from Giza.
p.s. - this was not limited to above as the Egyptians themselves and others also sometimes stole stone from ancient sites to repurpose it for something. Djedefre's Pyramid at Abu Rawash as an example saw its' granite blocks stolen during Roman times.
@@brianmincher716 Meaning that any remaining hieroglyphs are probably building instructions.
Or humans destroyed it 🤣
I appreciate your gentle, reasoned approach to answering these strange alternative claims.
As a physicist, I really enjoy this “myth busting” series. Thank you for this content!
The only drawback is the after watching one or two of yours YT assumes I am very much into the pseudo-science you bust and floods me with this nonsense 😂
Have you ever read the paper that was published in the journal of applied physics a few years back about Giza? I cant remember the name of the paper or the author but from my very limited understanding of physics it seems that their little computer model shows that the Giza complex might have been built in that manipulates radiowaves in some way. I know its just a computer model but if it can be shown to be an intrinsic feature of the pyramid itself wouldnt that kind of throw a wrench into the idea this stuff is nonsense? I cant imagine a way in which that happens by accident.
the name of the paper is "Electromagnetic properties of the Great Pyramid: First multipole resonances and energy concentration". I only understand how to program computers so this sort of applied phyiscs is well beyond my knowledge. I got no idea what most of that paper is even talking about but I never here anyone talking about it or trying to explain it. Maybe its a bad paper that shouldnt have been publish I dunno
@@iraniansuperhacker4382I just downloaded it and will have a look in the coming days :)
@iraniansuperhacker4382 I actually just looked this paper up. It costs USD40 to read. I didn't read it, but the abstract sounds like they're just bouncing some radio (or radar) off stuff. Lots of stuff reflects and scatters radio waves... like mountains, and planets, the moon, etc.
@@juliavixen176 there is a very nice website for getting papers 4 free ;-) but I think youtube censors the name.
A thorough look at the big names of alternative history is long overdue.
Exactly.
Looking at them one by one in detail is an interesting look into folly, but better to name and shame the worst of them in one go so that people know who to watch out for.
Let's be real. No one who falls for the pseudo-science nonsense will ever come back to reality.
@@yaldabaoth2 some do. And these videos are important for the people who might be falling down and don't really have the means to be able to interpret the constant nonsense they're being exposed to, it gives them a lifeline before they become a dribbling pseudoscience fan.

Yes this is good work. The blind leading the blind.
@@yaldabaoth2 some do. I loved the alt stuff, but once I actually started learning about these civilizations, I realized I was misguided and wrong, and realizing how many of these pseudohistory characters are frauds. Not everyone is open to accepting being wrong, though. It's quite odd.
I'm under the Impression that there is a quite visible "evolution" of pyramids that shows a trial and error process with the goal of building a real big pile of rocks that does not collapse into itself
@AllHailDiskordia - In the aerial shots of the Giza Plateau, you can see many of them.
Correct. People tried it, didn't work, they wrote it down, tried something else, worked better, wrote it down, tweaked it. Then THAT worked. Write it down. Do it again.
You now, how all human endeavor has worked. Period.
The unfinished Ryugyong Hotel in Pyongyang are formed as a pyramid of the same reason. Sourcing high quality materials in North Korea forced such a design.
Only if you go by evidence and observation.
You’re supposed to go by what loosely fits the conclusions you started with, the ones that will sell your books and speaking engagement tickets at looney conventions.
With that in mind, clearly the aliens/Atlanteans made the really good ones, and then humans gradually made shittier and shittier ones as time passes and we _forgot how to make them_
(This is really one of their arguments. 🤦)
You got no rteal knowledge to the matter i see. The oldest ones, are the ones that are stand still, so there dor, there is no evolution, Plus after the great pyramids that are still stand, you got to undertand that pyramind after thatm were poorly constructed in the inside, but they would probably had a well cut granite or andesite, or other kinds of stone, that were probably removed, to build the next one, fromt the next pharao, or other cultures that invade egypt to their own constructions, like happens with the great pyramid, and all around.
Love that you grab a mathematician , to check his numbers. Thanks again for all the hard work and the laughs.
Did you check his works cited on the claim that the Giza complex was completely flooded for thousands of years? Because his works cited doesn’t say that at all lol
Apparently Carlson also enjoys 'do-it-yourself' History.
Great video Dr. Miano! The myths series and the travel guides always make my day.
Thank you David Miano and Kaitlyn Burnell for the information! I used to read Randall Carlson's Books, as well as Graham Hancock's books, and I had the wool fully pulled over my eyes. Now I cannot believe that I once bought into that hullabaloo. I appreciate this channel and look forward to watching future videos!
Your problem is you're going from belief to belief. Seek the truth with no belief, and you'll be more alert to life around you.
@GLaDOS_WR - I used to read such books when I was young, too. I'm glad I stopped. Reality is so much more exciting. I don't want to waste another second of my life on garbage like Carlson and Hancock.
@@ccoodd26 - It's never a problem when someone moves from a state of sleepwalking to the tune of a scammer to a state of being fully awake and seeking knowledge from mentors who know what they are talking about. @GLaDOS_WR-1 is doing well.
Actually , if you make a slope that of the great pyramid , which is the phi slope, you can measure the rotational speed of the earth. Since the speed is measuring rotaion it would measure the sun rays that travel from top to bottom and you can actually correlate time and distance . That way , you can create a time unit that is actually based on earth rotation, I would call in a "second". o_O
Dr. Miano, thank you for this video! i hope lots of people see it

Strange how all the conspiracy theorists bang on about the amazing achievements of the Egyptians but never have any interest in the engineering practices that made them possible
Real scholars are grant money dependent while calling themselves data dependent. Money sways reality and people are willing to kill for it.
Claiming the entire Giza complex was completely flooded for thousands of years when nothing cites this is also a fantastical claim.

Very interesting, love the mix with interview.
In Melbourne Australia around the 1980's we had a radio show ran by lawyers called The Liars Club on 3RRR FM. Essentially they publicly debunked any 'personality' who told porky pies and spread misinformation. One memorable show involved buying tickets to a worldwide lecture tour by a 'scholar' of some forgotten discipline, who claimed he'd found the petrified wooden remains of Noah's Ark on a mountainside in Turkey. Of course blurry photos where provided to whet the appetite. After asking some challenging questions that such a momentous discovery deserved, they where promptly shown the door. My memory is a little hazy, but in a nut shell, true.
If you ask those kinds of people for hard evidence, they will lash out at you, call you a shill for academia and block you lol
Sounds like Ron Wyatt, a legendary fake archeologist who claimed to have found all sorts of Biblical artifacts.
Wtf does that have to do with this you and the creator if this video are just full of shit beechs
Lawyers in a Liars Club... seems redundant.
Carlson is a "looks like" scholar. Degree obtained at Coast 2 Coast AM University. 😂
I used to listen to Coast 2 Coast AM every night in the late 90's. Art Bell entertained 3rd shift workers for decades! It was like the Joe Rogan Experience only 30 years earlier. I thought Art Bell was fantastic he'd have callers tell him stories about Vampires and he'd ask them questions and take them serious. As a listener I would be laughing my head off but Art never broke charcter. Who knows maybe he believed everything but I don't think anyone is atually that open minded.

The thing I wonder most abot Carlson's calculations is: Does he really believe in all that BS or is he only trying to hoodwink people enough that they buy his books?
My guess is the latter choice.
I've thought about this as well. Considering how many deliberate number tricks you need to do to get to his results I deem it highly improbable that he's unconscious of the fact that he's manipulating the numbers. Repeatedly.
So in this case I infer an intention. Guilty beyond reasonable doubt, or what's the phrase?
@@Spielkalb-von-Sparta There can be a lot of reinforcement going into this type of delusion. Get a bad number? well maybe you just put them together wrong. Get the same bad number several times? Hey you just discovered a new sacred number to add to your series. And don't forget that you can just multiply by a small number any time you see a near match, and justify it somehow.
@@rianfelis3156Yeah, this might counts as a "reasonable doubt."
I've once heard the argument that intelligent people aren't less vulnerable to conspiracy theories because they've got more means to delude themselves. Could be similar here.
No, he is also fooling himself, it is what happens when folks don't expose themselve to peer review, Carlson is probably very intelligent and figured things out for himself, therefor hardly ever corrected, and then you can go south very south... just like scientists can.
I’m a bit addicted to going on some of the pseudo channels and trolling them. The comments sections are absolutely bizarre. Copper chisels, ancient superior technology, scooping out the rock while it is soft, talk of the evil establishment archaeologists, etc, etc. They are all too busy putting forward their own theories. The pyramid is a power station, giants building it , blah blah. They take themselves so seriously and get so angry about everything. 😂😂😂
The ‘liquid rock’ theories are particularly insane to me. Some of the others I can entertain but manmade hard rock (basalt, granite etc)? No.
@@maidende8280 Oh is this the “Natron Theory” guy, I ran into that the other day and I even managed to pin down the wikipedia articles he misinterpreted.

I must admit this wasn't as enjoyable as I thought it would be. I was hoping for an exciting clash between a mainstream historian and a creative maverick outsider but after about ten minutes the maverick's thesis was so bad it almost came across as bullying to debunk his work.
It's a frustrating position for real historians to be in. These grifter types easily seduce those with a natural conspiracy bent, a distrust of government and authority, and a delusional self image that makes them think they can watch a few Tik Tok videos or Rogan podcasts and know more than real scientists, archaeologists and historians on a subject, so the desire to combat this nonsense is a sincere one.
But to put together a well presented, fully researched feature length piece like this, pretty much succeeds in demolishing the arguments in the first few minutes and the rest feels like punching down.
I do hope that you do more Dr Miano, I'd love a full research rebuttal into Jimmy Corsetti, as he annoys me the most, but I feel that again, in practice, it would just feel like you're picking on an idiot and being mean.
I’d love to see Miano vs Corsetti. Corsetti has some good ideas but also some very wrong ones, imo.
As for this video…can you imagine anyone doing a better job being entertaining AND thorough while debunking Carlson? I can’t.
@@maidende8280 by saying the video wasn't as fun as I thought it would be, I rather meant the level of research by Miano far surpasses the claims of Carlsen. If this was a boxing fight, it would have been a first round KO with Miano continuing to punch Carlsen's lifeless corpse for 11 more rounds.
It's a conundrum. I love to see this stuff thoroughly debunked, but once the real science and research comes into play it quickly becomes apparent that this is a total mismatch. I think Corsetti's would look ridiculous after about 6 minutes of Miano talking. I'm all for it though!
To be fair, people like Carlson amd Hancock make a lot of money spinning their nonsense and have quite influential platforms which they use to spread misinformation. I get what you are saying about the rebuttal coming across as mean, but I do think Carlson and co deserve getting dunked on.
@@girondinant yeah they definitely deserve it, I agree. Both have done extremely well financially as well as finding a kind of cult status with this niche field.
Considering that Carlson has a grade school level grasp of math it's like a kid fighting Mike Tyson.
Thanks, appreciate the depth of your videos!
And thank you!
The reason Carlson can't explain why the pyramid is slightly off has to do with Google images, and probably also NASA being slightly off kilter, and not wanting to admit to their error; and I would imagine he wouldn't want to get into a dispute with NASA, or Google's lawyers, and technical crews, etc. It really is too complicated, but not very important or relevant for the speech.
I would give anything to listen to Randall Carlson and Jesse Ventura have a conversation for 5 minutes 😆 they sound so alike, lol
ROFL 🤣
Why can’t ancient Egypt just be exactly as impressive as it’s proven to be? No more, no less.
5,000 years old is surely impressive enough.
It’s like people who search for “living fossils” who demand a T-Rex or pterodactyl but happily ignore crocodiles, sharks, birds etc. They’re looking for “living fossils”, just not the ones we’re familiar with already as they’re too boring. “Ancient Apocalypse” researchers hunt for ancient civilisations…..just not the ones we’re familiar with already as they’re too boring.
Basically, reality isn't fun enough for them.
Yeah, it's fun to read sci-fi about Lizard People living underground, or another civilization before ours that was wiped out by an asteroid (especially since that could happen to us), but there's no evidence for these things actually being real.

Except the guy I'm talking to is named Bill....not Bob. But yeah....do this for all conspiratorial conversations, and you'll see how silly it sounds.

@@Tucker93669 The implied appeal from authority, does not persuade.The biggest aspect of belief in anything is wanting what you believe, to be true.

You're not even in disagreement with what Carlson has said, but only your theory or guess as to what he is saying.
The issue is that you only half way analyze things before you assume that you know everything.
You should first learn to comprehend things before you attempt to criticize them.

The Egyptian angle measurement system is honestly kinda genius, it's obviously limited but it makes the math really simple and is easy to measure.
They mispelled perimeter, pre-diluvian, Sumeria, etc. But they're like, you can trust our research bro, we have cartoons. 😂
Ty for ur vids
I eagerly await your videos debunking the strange, sclerotic, and insular views of self-proclaimed experts in fields far afield from their own expertise. Masterful work!
@mtreder4 - "Sclerotic" is a good descriptor.
I am truly terrible when it comes to maths. As soon as I see a whole bunch of numbers, calculations, and measurements my brain just shuts down and goes into safe mode. Kaitlyn is obviously a math genius or something but she might as well have been talking in a different language. So it boils down to do I believe Kaitlyn's numbers or Carlson's ?...Kaitlyn wins every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
I'm pretty good with geometry... Kaitlyn could've explained it MUCH more clearly, especially when explaining Egyptian units and preferences... but yeah, go with her numbers over RC's, who's essentially combing the cherry orchard for heart-shaped cherries, so that he can prove that the ancient cherry growers were trying to develop heart-shaped cherries... and he couldn't find enough perfect ones, so some of them are like, really?
@@GizzyDillespeeThis is the UA-cam comments section right ?. I kinda got the feeling Kaitlyn is not used to talking to a whole bunch of thick people. When it comes to math and geometry..I'm defiantly one. It could have been explained in a way more people would understand, but I understood enough and enjoyed the vid. Thanks for reply.
I’m good at maths & there’s no competition. But you don’t need to be good at maths to understand that Carlson is reaching far beyond logic, as depicted in Miano’s hypothetical conversation between the builders.
The math isn't actually all that important, the more important point is just that Carlson is deliberately cherry picking specific measurements in specific units in order to fit his conclusion. Like notice how he'll randomly switch between imperial and metric without actually converting between the two, he's doing that so he can get the numbers to match whatever conclusion he wants. Also occasionally he'll actually use ancient Egyptian units like the cubit and the seked but only when it fits his conclusion, which seems odd since surely it'd make the most sense to talk about the pyramids using the units of the people who made them right? Like the Egyptians or anyone prior to them couldn't possibly have known about the modern American Foot or Meter, both of those units were only created about 4000 years after the great pyramids were built.
Próf. Miano, thank you for being one of the only channels on UA-cam that, rather than directing their arguments towards personal attacks of the claimant, instead arguing the claims with evidence and science.
We need more good faith scholarship on this platform, and many could learn a lot from your style of take down!
Unfortunately, the personal attacks are more popular.
Yeah, i'm not interested in people punching down on another person
I'm interested in the facts (or lack there of, in these cases)
This was fascinating...

"I totally believe a PhD in Philosophy teaming up with a Mathematician to discuss geology, masonry, surveying, civil engineering and architecture. Since most of the experts agree it must be fact!"
For those who are interested on ACTUAL measurements of the Earth's size done in Ancient times, the earliest one recorded was made by the Greek-Egyptian researcher Eratosthenes during the 3rd Century BCE. And it was quite accurate for its time, as well. The documentary Cosmos (by Carl Sagan) made a piece about him back a few decades ago: ua-cam.com/video/G8cbIWMv0rI/v-deo.html
It's also really fun because you can quite easily repeat it yourself if you just get a friend that lives roughly on the same longitude as you.
Excellent piece
It’s schoching people can be so ignorant
Nice analysis. You missed the hidden point (given by the 40,000 year old dates) that he is actually talking about Neanderthal math. The Sphinx has a sloped forehead and deep brows, so it's obvious they built the pyramids and left them for the the Egyptians as their great strength was needed to pick up large stones and polish them. The Neandrathals had larger feet so that fixes the errors in measurements. They were related to Homo erectus which is a great name and justification for measuring the circumference of the earth. Sapiens botched everything up, when they hunted the Ancients to extinction and plagiarised the Neanderthal sacred math.
Changing the units (assuming larger feet, or whichever units) doesn't change the ratios. For example, the ratio between the pyramid's base and the Earth's circumference stays the same no matter what units you measure them with... as long as you're consistent. By inconsistent, I mean, for example, if you measure the pyramid with one arbitrary unit (feet) and measure the Earth with a different arbitrary measurement (meters), then the ratio is meaningless. The units have to be the same for both measurements, if you want their ratios to have physical meaning. But it doesn't matter which unit you choose to measure with. This is the kind of thing that seems to confuse people at first, and then to be really obvious, once people think about it for a minute.
Also, many of RC's claims of perfect mathematical correspondences are wrong... as this video shows, many of the measurements he mentions aren't as accurate or precise as he says they are... and some of them don't even fall within the margin of error for his calculations.
As far as Neanderthals... I REALLY wish we could find some Neanderthal community that was preserved thru time by a sudden catastrophic volcano eruption... a Neanderthal village version of Pompei. They died so long ago that material preservation is limited. I wish we knew more about Neanderthals. I saw the Why Files episode on them, which made them seem like the urukai from Lord Of The Rings (I'm serious... it got over a million views). There was some good storytelling, but it's educated speculation. I wish we knew more definitively.
I wish Elon Musk got a Neanderthal's DNA and cloned him/her, and eventually we make an army of Neanderthal slaves, to do what the AI robots won't be able to... until those 2 factions rise up against us, and take over the world. Okay, I take back that wish - I didn't think it thru. But I still wish we knew more about Neanderthals.
I didn't mention the sphinx head proportions, because I believe the sphinx's head has been renovated and changed at least once since its original shape. It's so much smaller than the body, and it looks so much less weathered than the rest of the sculpture. It's really obvious that the head is a newer carving - just look at a tourist video that rotates around the sphinx, looking at the difference between the body and the head (especially the face - the back of the neck is smoother than the sphinx's body, but apparently less was removed from the head-dress side), and see how much smaller and newer the head appears to be. So, we can't use the facial features or neck to obtain any useful information about the original head and neck.
@@GizzyDillespee We should selectively breed to increase Neanderthal DNA. I have 6% and I’m pretty awesome. I think the Neanderthals were superior in many ways including intellectually but I *may* be biased.
One of my theories is they never truly died out, they just hybridised with Homo sapiens & live in hiding, breeding amongst themselves. Possibly in a biosphere…
This is so nonsensical that I can’t tell if it’s a hilarious joke or a Randall Carlson quote 😂. Either way I’m laughing!
@@krakensquatch What. You thought I was serious. Surely you don't think Neandrathals possess space age tech. They had a hard time chasing wolly mammoths to bother with measuring the distance to the moon.

"If we dont have all the answers, then YOU dont have the answers, and you're stupid for even speculating or questioning anything we haven't proven yet!" -practicing my arguments against Carlson, Dunn, and Hancock.
Speculating is fine so long as you have a credible basis from which to suppose - meaning evidence to justify challenging academic conclusions. Simply saying _"I believe....."_ = is not enough.
More importantly however is if one admits they do not know - yet they as you say continue to put for supposed "possibilities" nonetheless to then *MONETIZE* upon that = one is now in the realm of _"grifting."_
Moral: LAHT can ask all the questions they wish. They must however be forthcoming as to their obvious lack of understanding so that their minions also clearly understand they are listening to people with no real background to even be speculating. They must also as academics do be ready to admit their errors to alter those assumptions in the light of more compelling evidence presented by the real experts.
They must also cease to monetize their fanboy club based upon the deceptive approach above. Once they accede to these simple things = they can generate all the science *FICTION* they wish.....
His idea falls flat just by the fact that 0 Longitude i.e prime meridian which is Greenwich observatory wasn't a standard until the 19th century.. So if the Ancient Egyptians even had any idea about Latitude and Longitude they would have no idea that in future Greenwich would be chosen as prime meridian and their measurement would have been different...
The other thing I just realized (maybe I'm a bit slow) after watching so many of these guys talk about impressive numbers "recorded" in those construction is that since ancient people could write, why would they record numbers in construction instead of recording them in books or other writing materials. If the ancient egyptians knew the speed of light (in meters per second), why did they record that in the lattitude of their pyramid instead of writing it on a stella or on a papyrus for everyone to see and every student to learn, I do wonder. Maybe because it was meant to be secret and only understood 3,000 years later after the meter and the second were invented 🙂
Also like it's only possible to “discover” these numbers after you already have a seperate measurement of the speed of light in meters, there's no possible way to figure any of this out if you didn't already know the speed of light, which to me would seem to suggest that any correlation is just an accident. I mean why would you ever encode measurements like this in such a weird way? No one does that, like we just write down the value directly, we don't build a huge fucking stone monument and then expect everyone to spend 2 hours juggling around numbers to figure out what the speed of light actually is.
ratios do not care about measurement discrepancies
@@hedgehog3180 Indeed. But that's the conspiracy theorist's state of mind. The mysterious "they" don't want regular people to know so they hide it. Only the "awaken" ones, the special ones, the chosen ones, can see the truth.
It's another way of saying "look at me I'm very intelligent and I'm special".
how many books have lasted thousands of years intact? Do you not understand the importance of symbolism in record keeping?
The ratio of the pyramids base to earth ratio is 432000, thats with accuracy, radius of sun is 432,000, speed of light is 432 squared, kali yuga 43,200 theres a lot more as well the whole yugas cycle is based around that number, also look up the dark side of the switch from 432hz to 440hz after ww2

This is always one of my favorite types of videos you make. I don't think I had ever heard of this guy before your previous video about him. If I had, i don't recall him like I do some others for whatever reason.
What burns me up the most is when they just casually leave out known information because they know most people watching them don't know what they are leaving out.
Thanks for a great job as always.
You have and can have no idea how imporant your work is to me. Every time I get too overwhelmed with my inability to engage in the social conversation, you release the video in my heart. Thank you so much.
I’m tired of Snake Oil salesmen trying to give their“alternative” history without any understanding of Egyptian mythology and twist everything to fit their theories. Money might be the great catalyst for these renegades. Thank you for the video. Joe Brogan should host a debate between you and Renegade Randal or Graham Hancockado
Oh for sure money is the motivation for all of them.
When we've been fed nonsense instead of evidence based research, we end up empty and vulnerable to even stupider nonsense.
Graham Hancocks early advanced civilizations made sense to me because there were many civilizations for countless millennia before our knowledge begins, until he made it a singular civilization that had to teach all the primitives....thats a bit...colonial.
@@lostpony4885 i’ve read every single Graham Hancock’s books from Fingerprints OF The Gods to Magicians OF The Gods and recently sold them for a quarter at a garage sale. He tried his best to pull together a theory on the lost civilization and YD impact theories and fell short.
Joe Rogan held a debate with Randall Carlson and Graham Hancock vs Skeptic Michael Shermer. The debate was a big let down as Michael Shermer did very little if any research to debunk these jack offs. I will say even without any preperation Shermer did get Graham Hancock to back pedal and exclaim "I'm just a reporter not a historian!".
The guy uses the language of charlatans. He encourages people to do things like "let it roll around in your head" or "as you should be seeing by now" to make his listeners feel like they're VERY SMART. Huge red flag.
Great video, professor. Thanks for breaking this down in a scientific way without vitriol or sensationalism.
There's a lot of appeal to scientific consensus going on here, as well.
Meanwhile, scientific truth does not care about scientific consensus.
History is full of examples of antiquated scientific consensus swept to the dust bin.
@@FakeMoonRocks I agree there is a problem with orthodoxy in science, but at the same time I fully believe the Scientific Method, if followed rigorously, provides the most accurate representation of reality.
People like Randall Carlson take far too many shortcuts for my liking and dismiss criticisms of their work whike appealing mostly to emotion and politics for reasons they are typically disregarded. Instead of, you know, the supposedly scientific grounds of their work. Again the means by which Randall Carlson operates in screams "Charlatan!" To me. If you want to believe him, by all means, you are within your right and I am 100% against censoring any voice, but I implore you to arm yourself with some kind of standard in scientific discourse...

@@FakeMoonRocks just a distain for charlatans like Carlson. Don't be upset about it.
To be honest, I don't see him as a charlatan. He seems to really believe what he's saying, so you may call him an idiot, but then he manages to earn money with what he enjoys and believes in, so he might not be an idiot either.
I see him as a somewhat crazy guy with some crazy ideas, but harmless.
I mean there is public discourse about his claims, he will be forgotten in the end, or proven right and remembered.
Both are fine in my book.
Oh and I'm sure there are some charlatans in this scene, but he doesn't seem like one.
Hi Dr. David ❤️ thankfully i hadn't heard of Carlson until you told me about him 😆🤯
Where the Ancient Aliens scam hits me personally is… Currently I am travelling Latin America scratching ancient sites off my bucket list. And as a life long enthusiast with thousands of questions, each time I approach a guide at one of these sites, with my American accent, they roll their eyes with an “here we go again, another Hancock zealot” kind of attitude. You can believe what you want, but don’t push your white teacher narrative on the descendents of these great civilizations!
What's even more disgusting is the Hancock fans refuse to even acknowledge how his racist narrative is stealing the history and culture from others. I'm starting to think they just support anything that supports a superior race idea.

In regards to the number 25,920 -- i.e. the supposed number of years in a 'Great Year' or Precessional Cycle, as calculated by 'the Ancients' -- it should be noted that whereas the solar day is commonly divided into 24 hours x 60 minutes x 60 seconds = 86,400 seconds, the Jewish Calendar divides the day into 24 hours x 1,060 halakhim ['parts' or 'portions'] x 76 regaim ['moments'], for a total of 25,920 halakhim = 1,969,920 regaim, where each 'helek' ['part'] = 10/3 seconds = 3.333... seconds, and each rege` ['moment'] is 1/22.8 of a second. When it says in 1 Corinthians 15:52 that "in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet" the Righteous shall be 'changed' into immortal spirit-bodies, the phrase "in a moment" translates the Greek words "en atomw" (where 'o' is an omicron, and 'w' is an omega) -- the same word where we get the English word 'atom', meaning 'unsplittable', denoting the smallest conceivable unit of Time as the Ancients understood it, equivalent to the Hebrew rege` [spelled Resh-Gimel-Ayin] being the smallest unit of Time, a 'moment', the twinkling of an eye, or, rather, the time it takes to blink.
The fact that there are 76 regaim in one helek might have something to do with 76 being equivalent to 19 x 4. There are 19 years in a cycle of 235 synodic months, so perhaps the smallest unit of Time was intended to be a microcosmic analogue to the 19-year cycle, or to 4 such cycles, since 76 years is awful close to the median of the average lifespan of a man, as given in Psalm 90:10 ["The years of our life are threescore and ten, or even by reason of strength fourscore"], i.e. between 70 and 80 years. One rege`/'moment' would be to one helek/'part' what one Year is to an average Lifespan.
This Jewish/Hebrew/Biblical system of 'parts' and 'moments' is obviously different from our 'minutes' and 'seconds' method, and it seems to go back at least to the 3rd Century, when Hillel II "made public the system of calendar calculation which up to then had been a closely guarded secret . . . when oppression and persecution threatened the continued existence of the Sanhedrin" [THE COMPREHENSIVE HEBREW CALENDAR by Arthur Spier, page 2]. The system probably dates back at least to the 5th Century BCE -- Spier indicates it was in use throughout the period of the Second Temple (516 BCE to 70 CE).
Why divide the Hour into 1,080 'parts' rather than into 60 minutes x 60 seconds = 3,600 seconds? If a macrocosmic human lifespan of around 76 years (i.e. 4 cycles of 19 years) can be juxtaposed with a microcosmic unit of Time equivalent to 76 'moments', then doesn't it follow that the Ancients may have discovered the Precession of the Equinoxes and calculated it to be 25,920 years, with the Hebrews subdividing a solar Day into 25,920 'parts' as a microcosmic analogue to that macrocosmic unit of Time? THE ASTRONOMICAL COMPANION by Guy Ottewell has the rate of Precession as 25,800 years, making the 'ancient' figure of 25,920 years 99.5370370370...% accurate, which isn't too shabby, and allows for subdivisions of 12 zodiacal 'signs'/'houses' x 2,160 years-per-sign/house . . . 72 years-per-degree x 360 degrees . . . 50 arc-seconds per year (i.e. 1,296,000 arc-seconds in a circle divided by 25,920 years), etc.
I don't subscribe to everything that Randall Carlson pontificates on, but the contemplation of 'Sacred Numbers' goes back thousands of years, and for most of that time the subject was probably kept secret by priesthoods and their initiates, so that 'profane' people couldn't muck up the works. The notion that certain 'Knowledge' regarding these sacred numbers was enshrined in Myths is not a foolish one; indeed, Joseph Campbell (no slouch when it came to the study of world myths) wrote a book about the subject, THE INNER REACHES OF OUTER SPACE. By all means, fault Randall for his bad spelling and for misquoting an occasional source, but don't throw the baby out with his bathwater. We still don't know how the f*@& the Egyptians were able to get those humongous granite blocks all the way up to the levels they're situated in the Great Pyramid -- a feat which modern attempts at pyramid constructing fails miserably at.
While interesting, your calendar does not address any of the discussion in the video, other than you also seem to believe in sacred numbers. Carlson is fabricating the numbers, to support his theory that there are sacred numbers "encoded" in the dimensions of pyramids.Whether you believe in the validity of sacred numbers is moot, because he's making up the evidence. Also, it's no secret how the pyramids were built, but there is some debate where the ramps were
Thank you for the excellent comment.
If we were marvelling at the Great Spheroid of Giza I may very well conclude that Randall was onto something..
Loved the video! Topics like this should be talked about. Dishonest amateur academics need to be called out and corrected.
The most amazing thing about Carlson is that he somehow, someway, managed to create a public image of himself as this heavyweight, big brain, universally acclaimed, undeniable mastermind. Like, "you might disagree with Hancock, that is possible, but nobody can deny anything The Great Carlson says, when he enters the discussion you listen, you don't argue". When all he has is a great imagination. Standing on some terrain and painting a picture of giant ice dams carving the land like butter is fun and cool, but hardly insightful, it is just an imagined picture, makes for a great story though.
You do understand the ice dams and great floods are proven in the mainstream don't you ? Baa baa sheep sheep
A popularity happens out from entertaining the average intelligence of the target audience
The average intelligence is certainly on full display on this message board.
I do think that is you have a certain charisma and get yourself known in a certain area of the entertainment business, invited into podcasts that millions listen to, in some cases are backed by big money and those with with alterior motives (and I'm talking maybe more about certain political factions rather than Carlson, but who knows) then I'm not surprised cults grow around people like this and they get given tv shows like Graham Hancock has because it's not about presenting fact and how new discoveries have changed our views on history, because that involves a lot more work, probably isn't as exciting, and probably doesn't get the same viewership as presenting alt history as fact by claiming what you say is true without having anything but some numbers and wild supperstition that can't be disproven to back it up, because this makes certain media companies more money.
lol. take a Geology course, I dare you.
Theres a lot of drawing space on the pyramids, it seems to me to be far easier to just write down the measurements rather than trying to encode them into the design of the pyramids. Non engineers seem to think engineering is about being clever, it isnt, its about getting things done. Its also about constant tradeoffs, encoding things into a design is error prone, time consuming and expensive and your pharaoh client just wants it done.
the original white limestone coating was allegedly covered in hyeroglyphs - so it was probably written down
Yeah sounds a lot more like an egotistical architects idea 😂
@@bobobobos2425 really because the bottom casing stones aren’t, this is just an unsubstantiated rumour
Also encoding natural constants into a building is like a very modern idea, like that's the kind of thing we might do as a fun gag when making an art project or building the new physics department. It wouldn't really make sense for a society that hasn't developed science since they wouldn't place any special value on these constants, and also obviously wouldn't know them. We only care about them because we live in a technology and science based society so science and its achievements hold great value to us but an Ancient Egyptian would probably think that's kinda silly compared to honoring the Pharoah since they more or less saw the Pharoah as a god.
@@hedgehog3180 I just don't buy that the builders were primitive or accidently got it right why is it so hard for people to admit that we have no clue who built them or how or what they were for? 🤔
Imagine the IRS agent that has to sort through this guys tax return
the hypothesis if we re-frame it in a sensible way, is that the dimensions on the pyramid is related to the oblate shape of the earth, then we don't need to talk about numerology, absolute values or anything of the sort, we don't need to care about whether the pyramid is close to the equator either, this is just something that seems relevant to what Randall is saying, because he doesn't know how to phrase his idea in the best way possible, then the idea would be that they knew the shape of the earth and it is connected to the size of the meridian vs the equator, then all we need to do is ask, within the precision of that relationship, does it even make any sense? could they have had a rough idea? and could it be a complete coincidence? the answer to all three questions is yes, it is not that complicated to get the idea that the earth is spinning, nor that spinning objects become oblate, but it is also really easy to produce an architectural feature that accidentally is in the 1% ratio range. therefore in my humble estimation, it is irrelevant that the ratio is as it is to the question being asked, without a secondary string of evidence for it, it is simple impossible to deny or confirm such an hypothesis, because it could be true that they knew it was roughly 1% oblate, but it is most certainly true that a roughly 1% ratio could be found in such a monument with no other intent than aesthetics. it doesn't really matter whether we knew it was true that the Egyptians knew that, we still would not know that ratio is reflected in that ration of the monument, because it is just a very simple to find kind of coincidence, if it was next to the fine structure constant and the spectral lines of hydrogen then sure, but one such measure is just expected for any building.
It really fucks me off every time he says “socle”, because he’s using the term wrong. A socle is the protruding base for something like a column or a wall, not the foundation on which an entire building rests. It feels like he’s literally just using the term because he knows most audience members won’t be familiar with it, which makes it sound like impressive jargon.
You literally argued for why he's correct LOL
I think it's even worse to lie about the numbers from a spiritual perspective. This proves to me that Carlson knows it's lies & has no problem exploiting ppl. He has no interest in spiritual truth.
Dunno how you have the patience to debunk this tomfoolery but I guess someone's got to do it, so thanks.
