    Back in the day, the recordings could become warped and damaged and sound like this, and it was annoying. But all these years later, I love that old warped sound.

    I loved the video and it was a very nice nostalgic experience listening to Rod Sterling, and the video itself was very thought provoking, and I don’t know why mainstream academics have such a hard time saying that they don’t know how these architectural artifacts were created, and just keep an open mind, and so I am as perplexed as everyone else as to why they don’t come clean and stop hiding things and destroying artifacts and historical evidence just because it differs from their own beliefs, and stop destroying the careers of scientists who report the truth about their findings and their research, hubris is the lowest of the character flaws of human beings, or at least one of the lowest.

      And yet the world is still full of charlatans who just make stuff up. And people who believe (and buy) their stuff. Things haven't changed as much as we would like to imagine.
      Having said that i read actual Science Fiction from about 1975 (Perry Rhodan, i think 757) which claimed (in story passing) that Teotihuacan was one of the "oldest cities in the world". That's probably a bit much but they did not tie it in any way to the aztecs and were obviously aware how much older it was.

    • @johnnybop64

      Many people already were sure they were older than Aztec back when this was released. Like many still say the Giza pyramids and Sphinx were all built by dynastic pharaohs, when some are obviously older. We haven't learned that much more, just depends who is looking at the info.

    From Leonard Nimoy to Rod Serling, any documentary with the profound narrator is top of my list! Or some of the ideas presented here downplay the possible achievements early man could have completed by himself, yeah idea and hypothesis is interesting!
    From a Christian viewpoint, it says that we came from the heavens, which many believe. I find it interesting that there are so many ancient civilizations that seem to detect what we view as astronauts. Personally I’ve been to some of these sites and they are amazing!
    But one big thing that we have to remember is that just like today, I’m sure the ancient world was filled with science-fiction and fantasy! We don’t write or draw everything that is real today, so why do we assume that this is what the ancient people did. The art of storytelling is the oldest profession!

      It is insanely difficult to destroy a pyramid. There are "simple" bunkers in German that nobody was able to destroy depite trying.
      And these alleged "aliens" seriously need a hobby!! What would be the bloody point of helping some primitives to build some stone heaps? It qualifies as absolute bullshit at that very point. The same question kills almost all alien related conspiracy theories*. If they'd be able to find us** and come here** you would strongly suspect them to have more sense and better things to do.
      * Like "how many US midwest (apparently an alien hotspot - or just too hot) farmers can you abduct and anal probe before that gets old?" Millions? hardly.
      **Obviously that they find us amongst (estimate) 300BILLION stars in the Milky Way alone, is insanely, mindbogglingly unlikely. If you take just one second per system (no travel or exploring time) you'd need very roughly 10,000 years to visit them all.
      Which makes some, SF, iike Star Wars throwing round the term "the whole galaxy" wilynillyly, really silly(ly). But also one of the reasons, why conspiracy inventors flatout ignore any probabaility issues. They are the great devourer of Conspiracy theories if you switch on your brain for 10 seconds.
      Example: 3000photos and well over 10 hours EVA TV footage per (later) Apollo missions "faked" in a studio? and yet only the same handful of images are "susprct" for decades? Even in the age of photoshop not 2995 of them being CLEARLY debunked as fake after playing with photoshop histograms for 10 seconds?
      Millions of (worldwide) scientists over half a century working with this (PD) footage, falling a for a 1970 studio fake?? How likely is any single of these things? And that's just one tiny aspect of one of the weirder "theories".
      You can make that thought experiment about possibilities without needing very many hard facts and most conspiracies would crumbe to dust instantly. Like ou don't need rocket science for the Apollo example, just a few simple numbers, common sense and logic. You don't need to be Carl Sagan to calculate what 300,000,000,000 Stars actually means for an Alien visit likelyhood.

    COMMENTARY:
    CARL SAGAN - REST IN PIECES!
    Carl Sagan was the award-winning Astrophysicist who hosted the PBS series, Cosmos, circa 1980. He was popular before most of us knew anything about Stephen Hawking, author of “A Brief History of Time.” Mr. Sagan is revered by many current Astrophysicists of today. This includes my hero, Neil de Grasse Tyson, and our own Professor Miguel Angel Moreno, Chairman of the Science Department at Los Angeles Trade Technical College. Dr. Moreno was instrumental in the design and construction of the Hubble Space Telescope.
    While I am a space fanatic and “Frustrated Astronaut”, I am not particularly fond of Carl Sagan. This is because of the lecture and book, Blacks in Science, Ancient and Modern, by the late, great Ivan Van Sertima. Dr. Van Sertima was Professor of History, Anthropology, and Linguistics at Rutgers University. Another of his many books was They Came Before Columbus.
    In his book about Blacks in science, Dr. Van Sertima talks about the observatory in Kenya, which was built 1500 years before Christ. He also talks about how ancient Tanzanians were smelting steel to rival the American Bessemer Process, and that of George Wilhelm Siemens of Germany. In addition, Dr. Van Sertima talks about the Dogon tribe of Mali.
    In an effort to escape the marauding Arab and European slave traders, the Dogon retreated to the inhospitable mountainous region of their country. They lived in caves, and over the centuries, developed “Dark Adapted Eyes.” For the last 500 years, the Dogon have performed a dance which plots the orbit of a binary star system. They call the stars Sigi Tolo, and Po Tolo. Sigi Tolo is known by Western scientists as Sirius, the “Dog Star.” They have only become aware of Po Tolo, or Sirius B, in the last few decades! Sirius B’s existence was confirmed by the Hubble Space Telescope!
    According to Dr. Van Sertima, when Carl Sagan was asked about the Dogon’s knowledge of Sirius B, Sagan said that some European genius must have wandered among them and taught the Dogon what they know. Now just who might this European genius have been? While I doubt that this person ever existed, it would have to have occurred during a time when Europeans still believed the Earth was flat! European scientists who did not adhere to the Geocentric theory of the universe were being ex-communicated and/or burned at the stake!
    As far as I am concerned, “Later for Carl Sagan!” (Notice how I am attempting to be politically correct?) If you Google the word “Dogon”, you will find an episode of In Search Of on UA-cam. This series was hosted by none other than Leonard Nimoy, the O.G. Mr. Spock of Star Trek.
    I would like to learn where Carl Sagan was laid to rest. If I find out, I want to go there, drink a 40 ounce of malt liquor, and offer my version of “Libation” to his remains!

      And i agree, it is an insult to our ancestors.
      Also these Aliens REALLY need a hobby. Ignoring the fact that finding us amongst 300bn stars in the Galaxy (at just the split second we are around) is as insanely, mindbogglingly unlikely as that they than waste their time piling stones for some primitives....

The Neanderthal weren’t in existence until much later in history. It’s entertaining to observe how hard they are trying to make their lies make sense.

      Isaiah 65:11 But ye are they that forsake me the Elohim YHWH, that forget my holy mountain, and prepare a table offering for Gad, the god of fortune.

Is there some piece of our DNA that links us to another place, which is why that one writer said he always felt like humans were "visitors?" Are we searching for "home" when we look up? -- Okay, I guess that's not the "next" step, but the next 3 or 4 steps.

    If the ancient people were able to move and stack large blocks of stone creating a pyramid, but the REASON WHY there is no soot inside the underground temple that are elaborate with images is that they were FIRST DECORATED AND LIKE A GIANT PUZZLE PIECE WERE placed in each slotted place!!

    In 1967, there was an episode of the original Star Trek tv series where aliens had visited earth around 2,500 years ago and were mistaken for gods(Apollo and others). Von Daniken took that idea and ran with it, making plenty of loot. As a young kid, I bought his books and ate up this ridiculous notion. Just goes to show, if you watch the right program, you can make fools out of anyone and make good money doing it.

    Oh those gods are full of promises, they always promise to return but they never do, not even a phone call to ask how we are.
    I'm done with unreliable gods and messiahs

      You haven't been contacted? Hmmm. I don't think you should blame the Messiah. He called. He calls every day. It's not His fault that you don't answer.
