I agree that it is an ancient quarry... Oh Yeah! - A few thoughts though, the people that did this, it would make sense to carve steps so you could easily get to a higher point when needed. Another point is that you will find it a 50/50 outcome where some people believe it is a natural formation and some believe it is man made, because it is both. This site is so old, that it almost does appear to be natural because of erosion, but not quite. Eventually it will only look natural; time (and the ocean) will wash away what once was done here so long ago. Lastly, if I had a boat with an underwater scanning LiDAR, I might go a little farther out than this site (a mile maybe) to see if there is a structure nearby that they were taking the quarried blocks to that is also underwater now... :)
I used to live about 100 miles from there. Not in Japan though. Graham Hancock told me that he things it was connected to the Dulan Wall in Taiwan before the waters rose. He's right.
I’ve been scuba diving for 60 years. Done some climbing and a ton of backpacking. Never saw anything even approaching this in Nature, not even Tongue of the Ocean or Devils Postpile. Not proof, of course, but makes me open to intelligent design
There's a post pile in Alaska off of Prince of Wales Island where I go fishing that makes devil's postpile look like children's play. It's absolutely f****** amazing
That channel walkway type thingy....well you say how can the rock just be taken away....what about underground caves then? Maybe the rock just get eroded in straight lines when the bits float away
Whatever it is, I travelled all the way out there from Denmark, I simply just appeared with no warning at the local dive center, got rejected....but just the first day. Terrible weather, a taifun came along but at day 4 I applied some pressure and got them to take me to the monument. Happy to have seen it...a strange place indeed. Probably natural but it is more fun to leave it as an object of mystery and wonder. But I regard it as an incredible privilege to have been there. Big hello to the lovely Naomi-san at the center, sorry for being such a sudden arrival.
The Yonaguni monument is the place where approximately around 12,000 years ago the rocks were quarried for the Nan Madol projects……the US Navy and other government science boards have already tested and studied the rocks at both locations……this stuff was done over 25 years ago. Several PHD students submitted their thesis papers on these studies. The ancient Ainu people have legends about the connections of both places.
12,000 years would bring into the time around the Younger Dryas, so sea levels were rising, but Nan Madol is 2,600 miles to the South-East of Yonaguni, and to put it into context , from North to South of Egypt is 650 miles. It is becoming clear though, that anvanced civilizations go back alot longer than 12,000 years ago.
you have no idea how happy I was to see you've posted a new video!! this was so interesting and I absolutely love hearing your thoughts on things like this, not many other folks in this subject publicly have open minds like you do and I have so much respect for you for it!
I'm going with the quarry idea, it would explain a lot of things. As in the combination of very natural looking areas combined also with the seemingly obvious use of power tools for those precise cuts and right angles. I'm wondering what kind of stone it is and its hardness rating, I didn't hear that. The bulk of missing pieces were cut from the source and hauled away; they don't necessarily need to be in close proximity, we know from other megalithic sites that quarried stone was brought to the structure from as much as hundreds of miles away from the source. And, from what I've seen, there seems to be pieces strune around that look machined, left behind because they were imperfect or miss-cut. I'm confident in believing as of now that it's an ancient quarry. Anyway, really enjoy your channel and discussions and I look forward to more. Cheers!
Really interesting video. I've seen a lot of documentaries about this site. I love how objective Jahannah is when she tackled this subject. I can't wait to see her upcoming Egypt tour videos :D
I am just thoroughly impressed with this girl!! I’ve been looking at this structure for a long time and wish we knew more about it. Keep up the good work!
Those stones from the Giants Causeway are pretty common. There are some across the sea from there in Scotland too(a myth connects them). Here in the US, in California we have a pretty famous set of them called the Devil's Postpile, near Mammoth Lakes. It's a beautiful area, well worth seeing.
Girl, I relate so much to the “broken ears” problem. One of the things I’ve always wanted to do is dive. I grew up right on the coast and the ocean has always been a huge part of my life, but I too have broken ears. So there’s that. I have Ménière's disease. Pressure issues, loss of hearing/understanding, vertigo, all the fun stuff. 😅
Hello. I just recently found your channel and im really glad i did! My wife and i are super intrigued by this stuff. Its really nice to see younger generations getting involved and wanting to learn the truth! There is a LOT that we have been lied to about and kept from and its just not fair. THANK YOU and we look forward to watching more videos. Keep up the good work!
Well now this was very good in that it raises 1 question that somewhat answers itself in every quarry I have been to there is always a lack of debris because if you cut it off your not just going to leave it there, on the other hand if it was a natural event such as a rockslide the debris would lay where it fell and if that event was so long ago the debris was eroded away why are the ledges still sharp ? OK this leads me to believe that it was man made Quarry since it was 75 meters down approximately 246 feet below sea level and the water levels were aprox. 436 feet lower during the last ice age I think this quarry was active before the sea levels rose to current levels. Also when working with stone it is always better to cut larger than you need and cut to fit removing blemishes on sight it is less labor intensive if you break a stone.
Actually your quarry hypothesis rings true. I had never thought of that, but now I can totally dig it. Although I hadn't connected Yonaguni mentally, I just did another livestream showcasing Ancient Terraformed Megalithic quarry fields. I did it after this video was created so it's really fresh. I know longer think about Atlantis , because Randall Carlson said these quarry fields in the sahara were 100s of thousands of years old, surpassing the 13000 YA mark.
As I was looking at it for the 100th time maybe, I thought, for the first time, that it could have been a work in progress for something like the "Kailasa Temple" which was carved from outside going in, a "cut-out monolith" process. It looks like someone was removing bits of stone here and there when something forced them to stop or they decided to abandon it.
I agree, the head that doesn't/does seem like a head, a work in progress when a disaster occurred? After seeing this again, I see very much that this was a work in progress that was abandoned: possibly at the last glacial maximum(?)
Huh, maybe this is the ACTUAL Tower of Babel 🤔 I never have believed it was located in the place we now call the "middle east." Edit: Just realized how absurd this sounds when considering that it appears someone was removing stone. I'm probably wrong.
Or perhaps it was a coastline bombarded and bashed by rough seas for thousands of years and that process suddenly stopped when the ocean levels suddenly rose at the end of the last ice age...
@@robertfarrior7275 what would cause the ocean level to rise? Have you ever watched the ice in a glass of ice water melt in the glass? The water level doesn't change when the ice melts. It stays the same. So where did all that water come from?
One possible natural event that could potentially make the "scooped out" arena shaped depressions would be a column of rock that was above that shape that broke off and fell away taking with it the stone with it.
This is a site that has puzzled me much and its always good to hear some actual reasoning, rather than the normal "this is definitely aliens made this" or of course the opposite, its reall refreshing to see someone actually considering the site objectively As for what i think of Yonaguni, im afraid im as undecided as you are Nice to get some content from you again :) I know you done some "shorts" but i dont watch those, i dont see how something so short can teach me anything But its great to hear some content again, and no, it doesnt matter at all that it is not definitive ❤
I appreciate how you bring up things like our ability to see faces everywhere and how good nature is at forming shapes. It is hard but also so important to be a skeptic and a believer both.
I've heard both sides of this argument. But when I go hiking in the Grand Canyon or Zion national Park in the American West, I see rocks that naturally break at 90° angles and assume the shapes of stones inlaid or made to look like a wall. So, anybody that says this couldn't happen naturally is incorrect. That doesn't mean this wasn't made, just that it is possible it's natural
@@EnigmaSeeker2012UAP I don't think it's clickbait. This is the type of stuff she covers on her channel and she has never said she's a scientist or an expert. Many other people have said the same thing incorrectly.
I agree. I live in the Four Corners area of Colorado and there are several places where the rock, when it's exposed to weathering breaks up in rectangular, and somewhat similar, chunks of rock which look almost like bricks stacked up. I still think the Yonaguni mnmnt might be man-made, but straight lines are possible in nature.
It’s not that straight lines and right angles can’t form naturally it is that so many together is not really a common thing. Breaking exact same sizes hardly ever happens. What baffles me if those shaped stones in places like Ireland that come out of the ground in hexagons. That is insane to me.
I like the quarry theory, but it mostly looks natural, considering the other natural wonders of the world. I live close to "Devils Tower" monument, one of the many of nature's anomalies.
Hexagons are a common natural structure. You seem them frequently in chemical bonds, and in tye natural world, e.g honey combs. Squares are not naturally occurring to the same extent. A 3d 90 degree stone corner of substantial size, like at YG, let alone multiples, is unlikely to be a purely natural process.
During the last ice age, the seas were 300 feet lower, placing Yonaguni 100-120 feet above sea level. I imagine at one point it was a ceremonial site, whereas before it was most likely a launch site for the advanced beings that bugged out just before the Younger Dryas, or perhaps even before then.
and if it was a quarry, we can find and test old stones to see if it came from the site. those stones could be anywhere though as this site would of been part of the mainland.
@@mac-qt3wd Mac, you need to think bigger than a beaker. Where is it more humid, next to the coast (Galveston Texas), or 1,000 miles from the coast (Monument Valley Utah)? So, hurricanes form from warm sea water, the hurricane moves inland and loses it's power source and dissipates. So, glaciers form from snow fall, but also from humidity from the ocean which contributes to the glacier. So, remove the ocean, and the glacier retreats and eventually goes away. So, in a cooler atmosphere (like it was in the 1960's and 70's), moisture is sucked from the ocean and the ice caps grow. The larger the ice caps, the smaller the ocean. 13,000 years ago, most of Canada and parts of the US were covered in ice. Where did this moisture come from? So, if you take moisture from one place and put it somewhere else, how then does the water source remain the same size?
@@The_Dudester there's a certain amount of water and you can't get rid of it and we aren't adding any water from any external source. The only way to get the water level to rise is to freeze it
@@mac-qt3wd Okay, I get it. You fell asleep halfway through 7th grade science class. I will end this discussion with "look up evaporation." Obviously you didn't learn about that and I won't spend any more time trying to teach you. Good luck in life.
for me the smoking gun is what you, too, mentioned: the missing debris. just looking over the shapes and realizing how big the missing volume is, where did it all go? yes i know, water erodes stone into sand and washes it off, but not to that degree that you can't find any leftovers of it anymore. that certain kind of stone tends to brake in rectangular fashion, is a known fact, but: why are this areas of "break-off" nowhere continuing? a few steps here, a few there, that looks to me very much like a work-trail around a site, sculptured at the moment of need, where people were walking to and from their location of task at hand, which would support your quarry theory, too. and when you consider that they mined truly big chunks of stone, these had to be transported of somehow, which again speaks for the need of stairs, and kind of sloped areas, too, to slide those chunks controllable down. which you can find on the side of the complex. so yes, i agree, IF it is a 'made" structure i think, too, it was most likely a quarry.
If you categorize the coastal debris you could have the following categories: sand, higly eroded lumps of rock half buried in sand, and larger and/or newer breakage. At Yonaguni you do see all 3 in places. However, because this rock fractures linearly, the final category is often viewed as evidence of human activity, while the first two categories are generally ignored even when visible in photos. But, as she points out, one side of these "regular" blocks is sharper edged and one side more rounded... Why? Coastal erosion. The waves breaking and crashing for thousands of years rounds and smooths parts, while the parts facing away or out of reach of the waves don't get eroded. Keep in mind, this area used to be coastal. It was not submerged. The ocean level was lower and this was the coast. If you go to the current coast you see the exact same structures where the waves crash against the rocks. Also, keep in mind that means the submerged area had eons longer to be abused by the ocean than the current coastline. This type of rock, as pointed out, is very brittle and easily broken. That means it would erode rapidly. It also means it is not a suitable building material. You want buildings made from hard rocks that dont fall apart easily. Also, if it were a quarry, where are all the buildings that were made from the rocks? We are concerned about the apparent lack of debris, but not concerned about the lack of buildings made from the rock. Maybe we have not found them or maybe they fell apart, or maybe they don't exist because it was not a quarry.
I love that you are being skeptical and honest while assessing this. When I look at the 3D model of the place it doesn’t look very manmade to me but the fact the above ground tombs are so similar makes me think twice about it. Thanks for the video!
There is NO WAY ocean currents shaped this rock. Diving around it can be very dangerous as well. The scale of stone that was removed (supposedly) is massive, and it really tickles the mind when trying to surmise its purpose.
Hey! I found your channel last week, and I absolutely love your videos! I think I've almost watched everything you have! 😊 just wanted to say Hey all the way from Australia✌🏾 🇦🇺
Great food for thought! Personally, I find it has too much non-fractal geometry to be natural. Comparing this to the hex stones where they are all the same size/shape doesn't really work. These cuts are all different. Your theory that this was an ancient quarry is most likely correct, but not being able to see it in person just makes it guesswork for the most part. Sure looks like either a quarry or a big fortress. I'm curious if the eyes and mouth on the "Iron Man" face are windows. It looks like it would make a good spot to point a crossbow out of if it were a fortress. Has anyone ever found an entrance? I'm curious if it was hollowed out like you see certain locations around Earth where this was done in solid granite or basalt.
What do we know about the geology of the area? Is it near the edge of a specific kind of rock or a fault? It being a quarry was my initial impression as well(not a geologist). We're finding sites like gobekli tepe dating back more than 10,000 years and it's always unlikely we've somehow found the 'first' of something. This site and something like 80% of the east china sea were above sea level for thousands of years. There's no reason to exclude the possibility of megalithic construction at this time and place. Megalithic construction predates written history. This is no longer a fringe argument. Why would we assume a bunch of hunter-gatherers were capable of it, but more sophisticated(relatively) civilizations near coastal areas(now 200ft underwater) were not?
Trust your eyes. This has been something I've been obsessed with for years even before I started youtubing megalithic structures. This one feels so obvious to me. Thanks for making a video discussion of it. Such a mesmerizing site. Never considered it as a quarry but i think it makes sense. I always thought it seemed comparable to the Ziggurat of Ur. Also the lines (layers) in the rock you refer to is described as sedimentary. It's from compaction of land over time into layers Unfortunately if anyone has the answers I'm skeptical we will ever be privy to the info. Thanks for the content
Also, anyone please correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think bed rock experiences liquidification and isn't prone to sinking. Assuming this is the work of humans, it would had to of been carved when sea levels were lower
The hexagonal rock in your video is formed by molten rock that solidifies and cools very slowly allowing the crystalline structure to take this shape. If you look at Devil’s Tower in Wyoming, which used to be the interior of an ancient volcano, the rocky pillared structure has a similar shape to it. There are many examples of this type of formation around the world. Natural!
Yes it's most likely man made because as we evolved people did everything to try and reach the sun. That monument is the farthest East you could travel on the planets longest East West line of land. Gobekli came after when people tried to located the center of the same longest East West line.. And Giza came after that once people figured out where the longest East West land crosses the longest North South land. People followed the sun as far as possible West to see where it was going and far as possible East to find where it was coming from over and over each time stuck at the water's edge with their mind's racing on what to do next.. We thought about the sun for a million years and must have followed it for at least 100,000 years. This was the main driver of evolution. Eventually all cultures located the longest East West lands in their areas and created structures based on the light to contemplate the sun further.
I was mulling this over with my cat and we both came to the same conclusion; that it most likely was a spacecraft landing dock. Utilized prior to the Great Melting of the last Ice Age, these are the remnants of its prior structure. Buried under the turblent sea for thousands of years, shaken by underground geo-forces, beaten and battered by constant angry currents, carving and consuming the once epic landscape to leave what we mere earthlings decipher now as just naturally occuring rock formations.
I've only recently found your channel and I find it very informative and entertaining. You do a very good and thorough job. Thanks for all the hard work you put into it and I look forward to watching for a long time. Thank you !!!🙂
It looks like a combination of an “All of the above” geological and man made formation. This is Japan after all with it’s proximity to multiple fault locations, numerous tsunamis, and having been above sea level during the last ice age, much of this is certainly natural. Now, if you are a neolithic civilization, it’s highly probable that the local humans would have taken advantage of the naturally occurring geometric blocks for their buildings, monuments and memorials. That would explain the lack of natural rubble that occurs in formations like that. On the North Shore of Lake Superior in Minnesota there are many geologic rock formations of volcanic origin that have similar fracturing and geometric shapes BUT there are massive rubble piles under the water left behind as evidence of its natural origin. Spectacular Palisade Head being one of them. Thank you Johanna for another great video!
@Funny Olde World, The other day I watched a video about the possibility of a 2nd sphinx on the Giza plateau. Just like how you're back n forth with this site, I was the same way with the 2nd sphinx footage. Maybe while you are over there you could get to the bottom of that for us? That would be awesome. Anyhow, have a great trip and safe travels to you. Keep up the good work!!!
I just stumbled across this channel and the content is in my wheel house I don't know how I haven't seen it before I'll be subscribing for sure ...great pictures love the narration and she is absolutely gorgeous LOL so a win on all fronts
I think you covered the options well. 1. what is it's composition? Does it break or fragment into geometric corners? 2. What do the experts say about if/when the structure was ever ABOVE sea level? 3. If it was a quarry, where can you locate the slabs were used? They couldn't travel too far at that weight/size. If could be a case of composition/ tectonic/erosion... But yes, soo many chunks are missing.
great show, Indie! love how you keep an open mind and delve into the possibilities. a quarry? perhaps. tectonic and/or seismic forces could have caused it to sink, and, rising sea levels inundated the area. but, i don't think it is any kind of temple, or what have you. Ole Ma Nature IS capable of some very strange and interesting geometric structures. more research and thought needs to be applied to sites like this. so, Ms James, just keep on keepin on the way you are. and, go have a great gallavant to Egypt! so what if you don't upload for a while. i know it'll be worth the wait to see the amazing video you'll shoot there! i'll miss your smiling face, for sure. but the coming attractions will be excellent, i've no doubt. have fun and stay safe, my dear!
I think what we might be looking at are the sockets for megalithic blocks for a massive structure that was swept away in a cataclysm in antiquity. One of the reasons I think that is the lack of erosion on the exposed surfaces. This would also explain the missing blocks supposedly cut from the "quarry". Just a thought.
I live in Washington state. We have tons of columnar basalt. This is the same rock as the Giants Causeway. When the lava cools it forms these hexagons naturally. Its so common around here, neighborhoods use the stone as signs with the neighberhood name on it. The scablands in Eastern Washington are largely comprised of columnar basalt also.
Very good video! Just a thought If there isn't rocks below that have fallen off at that location , are there rocks below at the bottom of that other nearby cliff? If anyone has checked there and can see pieces that have fallen off, it would be an interesting comparison. I like your view from both sides, it's excellent! To often we only see one side at a time. We are spending three weeks in Egypt this December to see many of the places, you Ben, Yousef, and others have made videos about😁 Keep up the great work!
Hey Jahannah.. yeah i agree. I've thought it was a quarry site for awhile too. Especially when you take a look at the surrounding underwater land features (surrounding the monument) which remind me almost exactly of Kilasa Temple in India. It also looks blocky and quarried. Its likely seismic activity had an effect of the current position and features, but the monument itself, being oblong in shape, seems too hand excavated to be completely natural. It would be wrong to say humans may have "built" it, because that would indicate we took materials and built up or upon to create a structure. This is more likely carved, excavated, and chipped away at for use elsewhere, or to form flat usable areas and staircases down to boats, where perhaps once a thriving sea port or fish market existed. Being solid in nature, there would be no evidence of any wooden structures they may have once constructed upon it left of course.
4:51 Nan Madol and Gunung Padang are both made almost entirely of the same type of hexagonal slabs. If I'm not mistaken it's the remnants of an old volcano, a basalt column that crystalizes in this particular way, while the rest of the volcano has eroded away
The "roads" you pointed out made me think of the carved channels in the ground used to transport water, similar to the roman aqueducts but cut into the ground rather than built above it. Luke Caverns was on the Forbidden Frontier show last week (on the Nerdrotic Live YT channel) and I believe he talked about those that he's seen in ancient cities discovered deep in the Amazon.
4:30 regarding Hexagon shaped rock formations there are other places around the world that they occur. For instance at Fingal Head on the southern end of the Gold Coast (just south of the NSW-Queensland Border) in Australia is a very well known and easily accessible formation jutting out into the Pacific. This was formed when Lava from nearby Mt Warning entered the ocean and cooled rapidly.
I'm new to the page and I must say, I love your content!! I'm totally crushing right now. Lol. You are absolutely brilliant and gorgeous. Looking forward to the next video!
I like your theory about it possibly being an old quarry site. Has anyone checked the stone composition for a match with the large stone steps that would’ve led up to the Ryukyu grand buildings(or ruins that remain)?
Johannah, I agree with one of your suggestions that it is a quarry site. And masons are taking advantage of nature's head start of straight, flat & right angle creations. So this solves the ambiguity of natural formations & man made alterations of the rock formations.
Facial pareidolia is the name of the phenomenon in which we see faces in seemingly innocuous objects. It’s generally believed to have helped us to identify potential predators back in the day when that was a necessary worry.
Hexagons are a very regular shape in nature. (Hexagons are the bestagons is a cool vid about it) It's found in fluid dynamics (Saturn's polar hexagon) and other odd places as well. It's also linked to 1/137, (the fine builders constant). I just stumbled into your channel and really enjoy it =)
very interesting. I've have watching expedition unknown season 10, episode 8 is in saqqara and episode 14 is about the Etruscan civilization, which some of their structures look like this.
Maybe they moored fishing vessels here when some of it was above water. Over 1000s of years, the water level rose and fell and people cut out levels of steps, platforms, etc.
In 1998 on a night flight from Tokyo to Atlanta, about 100 to 200 miles east of Tokyo, I saw what appeared to be a very large city of lights under the water. It was not a flotilla or an oceanic research station or any such thing. It was as big or bigger than any major metropolitan city and very well lighted. It wasn’t bioluminescent aquatic species or anything like that. It was a very large underwater city, or it was a gigantic mothership. I even tried to get the lady sitting next to me to look at it. She just quickly glanced at it, said something like “hmm that’s strange” and went back to the book she was reading. I was flabbergasted. I thought about calling a stewardess and asking if they knew what that could be, but decided to drop it. To this day, I’m convinced there’s a huge alien base, or city, or spaceship under the ocean off the east coast of Japan 🇯🇵.
4:50: If you think Giant's Causeway - formed by rapidly cooling larval basalt - is impressive, check out Fingal's Cave on Staffa at the other end of that formation, 60 miles across the Irish Sea. (Fingal was the giant, known as Finn McCool in Ireland.) There are numerous spectacular formations of columnar basalt around the world.
Hi, love your videos, been watching for a while now and have been meaning to ask a completely unrelated question to the topics at hand; do you make clothes? Cause the dress form in the bg keeps catching my eye in your videos.
I love the red granite around that square peg hole. I agree that its very ambiguous, largely because the ocean erodes so much. The side likely was largely a natural formation that was inhabited and modified a bit during the ice age when the formation was above sea level.
12:36 re: 'boreholes' if you search "blow holes" you'll see that they can and do occur naturally at coastal area with caves. the waves smash into the cave entrances and then force the water up to top of cave, under right conditions in cave , this wave action eventually blows hole right through to open air above. the pics u see from search will give u much clearer idea. again, it's just a possible scenario. (two of them so close together would seem odd, but ...)
The tessellated pavement in Tasmania is cool too. And another thing is apparently it's only one small section that is always shown on this. All the surrounding area looks completely normal apparently.
There's a lot of old sculpture around Japan, that seems to have a theme of merging worked lines and surfaces with natural form and texture. I don't know what to think, only it's nice to look at. I'm sure the sculptures had their reasons!
The channel she showed in the video that has a “roadway” appears to have “scooping” of rock removal in it. This exact formation appears in the other megalithic quarry site with the unfinished megalith. The sides appear scooped out exactly the same way.
I agree that it is an ancient quarry... Oh Yeah! - A few thoughts though, the people that did this, it would make sense to carve steps so you could easily get to a higher point when needed. Another point is that you will find it a 50/50 outcome where some people believe it is a natural formation and some believe it is man made, because it is both. This site is so old, that it almost does appear to be natural because of erosion, but not quite. Eventually it will only look natural; time (and the ocean) will wash away what once was done here so long ago. Lastly, if I had a boat with an underwater scanning LiDAR, I might go a little farther out than this site (a mile maybe) to see if there is a structure nearby that they were taking the quarried blocks to that is also underwater now... :)
This is an interesting idea.
I would tend to agree.
This is such brilliant thinking oh my goodness!
Well done. Nature and especially water abhors 90degree angles
Nephilim builders and there here again in there orb ships
I used to live about 100 miles from there. Not in Japan though. Graham Hancock told me that he things it was connected to the Dulan Wall in Taiwan before the waters rose. He's right.
That could be tested with samples from both sites.
@@floridaman4073 you’re totally right- however mainstream archeologists will not bother with this. They’re too uncomfortable with the truth
I’ve been scuba diving for 60 years. Done some climbing and a ton of backpacking. Never saw anything even approaching this in Nature, not even Tongue of the Ocean or Devils Postpile. Not proof, of course, but makes me open to intelligent design
There's a few of those above the water in the islands near the sight. U can go look.
There's a post pile in Alaska off of Prince of Wales Island where I go fishing that makes devil's postpile look like children's play. It's absolutely f****** amazing
That channel walkway type thingy....well you say how can the rock just be taken away....what about underground caves then? Maybe the rock just get eroded in straight lines when the bits float away
@@drunvert looking forward to seeing that
Already debunked it's non men made
Whatever it is, I travelled all the way out there from Denmark, I simply just appeared with no warning at the local dive center, got rejected....but just the first day. Terrible weather, a taifun came along but at day 4 I applied some pressure and got them to take me to the monument. Happy to have seen it...a strange place indeed. Probably natural but it is more fun to leave it as an object of mystery and wonder. But I regard it as an incredible privilege to have been there. Big hello to the lovely Naomi-san at the center, sorry for being such a sudden arrival.
The Yonaguni monument is the place where approximately around 12,000 years ago the rocks were quarried for the Nan Madol projects……the US Navy and other government science boards have already tested and studied the rocks at both locations……this stuff was done over 25 years ago. Several PHD students submitted their thesis papers on these studies. The ancient Ainu people have legends about the connections of both places.
Look at the geography. The Ainu people are from northern Japan. This site is far away off the coast of Taiwan.
12,000 years would bring into the time around the Younger Dryas, so sea levels were rising, but Nan Madol is 2,600 miles to the South-East of Yonaguni, and to put it into context , from North to South of Egypt is 650 miles. It is becoming clear though, that anvanced civilizations go back alot longer than 12,000 years ago.
Through DNA testing, its been proven the Polynesians came from Taiwan. We know what they're capable of structurally (eg. Easter Islands).
Wow. I'd never heard that the ainu have legends about Nan mandol . Any info on that?
Nan Modal is made up of basaltic pillars, like those in the Giant's Causeway. This is not the same sort of rock found here 🤔
you have no idea how happy I was to see you've posted a new video!! this was so interesting and I absolutely love hearing your thoughts on things like this, not many other folks in this subject publicly have open minds like you do and I have so much respect for you for it!
I'm going with the quarry idea, it would explain a lot of things. As in the combination of very natural looking areas combined also with the seemingly obvious use of power tools for those precise cuts and right angles. I'm wondering what kind of stone it is and its hardness rating, I didn't hear that. The bulk of missing pieces were cut from the source and hauled away; they don't necessarily need to be in close proximity, we know from other megalithic sites that quarried stone was brought to the structure from as much as hundreds of miles away from the source. And, from what I've seen, there seems to be pieces strune around that look machined, left behind because they were imperfect or miss-cut. I'm confident in believing as of now that it's an ancient quarry. Anyway, really enjoy your channel and discussions and I look forward to more. Cheers!
I love the way you present, it's both insightful and so damn hilarious 😂 your mannerisms, facial expressions and delivery are just so beautiful
So glad you covered this one. I'm on the fence as well. The unrelated seperate rectangle piece was new to me too. Thanks for pointing that out.
It's a pleasure having your charm in my living room telling me all about new things. Thanks!
Really interesting video. I've seen a lot of documentaries about this site. I love how objective Jahannah is when she tackled this subject. I can't wait to see her upcoming Egypt tour videos :D
I am just thoroughly impressed with this girl!! I’ve been looking at this structure for a long time and wish we knew more about it. Keep up the good work!
Those stones from the Giants Causeway are pretty common. There are some across the sea from there in Scotland too(a myth connects them). Here in the US, in California we have a pretty famous set of them called the Devil's Postpile, near Mammoth Lakes. It's a beautiful area, well worth seeing.
I love what you and Jimmy have done. You are two of my favorite UA-camrs.
Girl, I relate so much to the “broken ears” problem. One of the things I’ve always wanted to do is dive. I grew up right on the coast and the ocean has always been a huge part of my life, but I too have broken ears. So there’s that. I have Ménière's disease. Pressure issues, loss of hearing/understanding, vertigo, all the fun stuff. 😅
Hello. I just recently found your channel and im really glad i did! My wife and i are super intrigued by this stuff. Its really nice to see younger generations getting involved and wanting to learn the truth! There is a LOT that we have been lied to about and kept from and its just not fair. THANK YOU and we look forward to watching more videos. Keep up the good work!
Well now this was very good in that it raises 1 question that somewhat answers itself in every quarry I have been to there is always a lack of debris because if you cut it off your not just going to leave it there, on the other hand if it was a natural event such as a rockslide the debris would lay where it fell and if that event was so long ago the debris was eroded away why are the ledges still sharp ? OK this leads me to believe that it was man made Quarry since it was 75 meters down approximately 246 feet below sea level and the water levels were aprox. 436 feet lower during the last ice age I think this quarry was active before the sea levels rose to current levels. Also when working with stone it is always better to cut larger than you need and cut to fit removing blemishes on sight it is less labor intensive if you break a stone.
I love the questions you pose, very informative.
Actually your quarry hypothesis rings true. I had never thought of that, but now I can totally dig it. Although I hadn't connected Yonaguni mentally, I just did another livestream showcasing Ancient Terraformed Megalithic quarry fields. I did it after this video was created so it's really fresh. I know longer think about Atlantis , because Randall Carlson said these quarry fields in the sahara were 100s of thousands of years old, surpassing the 13000 YA mark.
You said dig it and you’re talkin about a quarry😂
@@manbearpig710 that was on purpose. TY VM 😀
You're a breath of fresh air on this topic I'm super interested in ancient civilizations as well
As I was looking at it for the 100th time maybe, I thought, for the first time, that it could have been a work in progress for something like the "Kailasa Temple" which was carved from outside going in, a "cut-out monolith" process. It looks like someone was removing bits of stone here and there when something forced them to stop or they decided to abandon it.
I agree, the head that doesn't/does seem like a head, a work in progress when a disaster occurred? After seeing this again, I see very much that this was a work in progress that was abandoned: possibly at the last glacial maximum(?)
Possibly it all came to a halt when it 'fell' off?
Huh, maybe this is the ACTUAL Tower of Babel 🤔 I never have believed it was located in the place we now call the "middle east."
Edit: Just realized how absurd this sounds when considering that it appears someone was removing stone. I'm probably wrong.
Or perhaps it was a coastline bombarded and bashed by rough seas for thousands of years and that process suddenly stopped when the ocean levels suddenly rose at the end of the last ice age...
@@robertfarrior7275 what would cause the ocean level to rise? Have you ever watched the ice in a glass of ice water melt in the glass? The water level doesn't change when the ice melts. It stays the same. So where did all that water come from?
I 100% appreciate you taking a fair look at this. No need to jump to conclusions without all the evidence or at least most of it.
One possible natural event that could potentially make the "scooped out" arena shaped depressions would be a column of rock that was above that shape that broke off and fell away taking with it the stone with it.
Another is the rock, like a lot of coastal rock, has pockets of softer and more easily eroded material that erodes away leaving its impression.
This is a site that has puzzled me much and its always good to hear some actual reasoning, rather than the normal "this is definitely aliens made this" or of course the opposite, its reall refreshing to see someone actually considering the site objectively
As for what i think of Yonaguni, im afraid im as undecided as you are
Nice to get some content from you again :)
I know you done some "shorts" but i dont watch those, i dont see how something so short can teach me anything
But its great to hear some content again, and no, it doesnt matter at all that it is not definitive
❤
Appears to be a natural site that was worked as a quarry. What sort of stone is it and what applications would it have.
I appreciate how you bring up things like our ability to see faces everywhere and how good nature is at forming shapes. It is hard but also so important to be a skeptic and a believer both.
It could be both. It could be a natural rock that was adapted slightly for rituals or worship . Who knows.
Oh my goodness! Thank you for this video! My daughter and I love watching your channel. You are great. Many blessings.
I've heard both sides of this argument. But when I go hiking in the Grand Canyon or Zion national Park in the American West, I see rocks that naturally break at 90° angles and assume the shapes of stones inlaid or made to look like a wall. So, anybody that says this couldn't happen naturally is incorrect. That doesn't mean this wasn't made, just that it is possible it's natural
No that is not Atlantis please see my videos on Atlantis. you will find a very compelling it's not clickbait like this video.
@@EnigmaSeeker2012UAP the guy didn’t even say it was. Fucking bots
@@EnigmaSeeker2012UAP I don't think it's clickbait. This is the type of stuff she covers on her channel and she has never said she's a scientist or an expert. Many other people have said the same thing incorrectly.
I agree. I live in the Four Corners area of Colorado and there are several places where the rock, when it's exposed to weathering breaks up in rectangular, and somewhat similar, chunks of rock which look almost like bricks stacked up. I still think the Yonaguni mnmnt might be man-made, but straight lines are possible in nature.
It’s not that straight lines and right angles can’t form naturally it is that so many together is not really a common thing. Breaking exact same sizes hardly ever happens.
What baffles me if those shaped stones in places like Ireland that come out of the ground in hexagons. That is insane to me.
Your videos are so high quality. Nice editing and your speaking is always clear sounding ✌🏻
I like the quarry theory, but it mostly looks natural, considering the other natural wonders of the world. I live close to "Devils Tower" monument, one of the many of nature's anomalies.
That’s a ancient petrified tree🤣🤣
Hexagons are a common natural structure. You seem them frequently in chemical bonds, and in tye natural world, e.g honey combs. Squares are not naturally occurring to the same extent. A 3d 90 degree stone corner of substantial size, like at YG, let alone multiples, is unlikely to be a purely natural process.
You are hilarious. I love your excitement into ancient history and the possibilities.
During the last ice age, the seas were 300 feet lower, placing Yonaguni 100-120 feet above sea level. I imagine at one point it was a ceremonial site, whereas before it was most likely a launch site for the advanced beings that bugged out just before the Younger Dryas, or perhaps even before then.
I very much doubt that, water expands when turned to ice, the more ice the higher the sea level. When the ice melts the sea level will go down.
and if it was a quarry, we can find and test old stones to see if it came from the site. those stones could be anywhere though as this site would of been part of the mainland.
@@mac-qt3wd Mac, you need to think bigger than a beaker. Where is it more humid, next to the coast (Galveston Texas), or 1,000 miles from the coast (Monument Valley Utah)? So, hurricanes form from warm sea water, the hurricane moves inland and loses it's power source and dissipates.
So, glaciers form from snow fall, but also from humidity from the ocean which contributes to the glacier. So, remove the ocean, and the glacier retreats and eventually goes away.
So, in a cooler atmosphere (like it was in the 1960's and 70's), moisture is sucked from the ocean and the ice caps grow. The larger the ice caps, the smaller the ocean. 13,000 years ago, most of Canada and parts of the US were covered in ice. Where did this moisture come from? So, if you take moisture from one place and put it somewhere else, how then does the water source remain the same size?
@@The_Dudester there's a certain amount of water and you can't get rid of it and we aren't adding any water from any external source. The only way to get the water level to rise is to freeze it
@@mac-qt3wd Okay, I get it. You fell asleep halfway through 7th grade science class. I will end this discussion with "look up evaporation." Obviously you didn't learn about that and I won't spend any more time trying to teach you. Good luck in life.
Very cool - thanks for keeping us in the loop!
for me the smoking gun is what you, too, mentioned: the missing debris. just looking over the shapes and realizing how big the missing volume is, where did it all go? yes i know, water erodes stone into sand and washes it off, but not to that degree that you can't find any leftovers of it anymore. that certain kind of stone tends to brake in rectangular fashion, is a known fact, but: why are this areas of "break-off" nowhere continuing? a few steps here, a few there, that looks to me very much like a work-trail around a site, sculptured at the moment of need, where people were walking to and from their location of task at hand, which would support your quarry theory, too. and when you consider that they mined truly big chunks of stone, these had to be transported of somehow, which again speaks for the need of stairs, and kind of sloped areas, too, to slide those chunks controllable down. which you can find on the side of the complex. so yes, i agree, IF it is a 'made" structure i think, too, it was most likely a quarry.
If you categorize the coastal debris you could have the following categories: sand, higly eroded lumps of rock half buried in sand, and larger and/or newer breakage. At Yonaguni you do see all 3 in places. However, because this rock fractures linearly, the final category is often viewed as evidence of human activity, while the first two categories are generally ignored even when visible in photos. But, as she points out, one side of these "regular" blocks is sharper edged and one side more rounded... Why? Coastal erosion. The waves breaking and crashing for thousands of years rounds and smooths parts, while the parts facing away or out of reach of the waves don't get eroded. Keep in mind, this area used to be coastal. It was not submerged. The ocean level was lower and this was the coast. If you go to the current coast you see the exact same structures where the waves crash against the rocks. Also, keep in mind that means the submerged area had eons longer to be abused by the ocean than the current coastline. This type of rock, as pointed out, is very brittle and easily broken. That means it would erode rapidly. It also means it is not a suitable building material. You want buildings made from hard rocks that dont fall apart easily. Also, if it were a quarry, where are all the buildings that were made from the rocks? We are concerned about the apparent lack of debris, but not concerned about the lack of buildings made from the rock. Maybe we have not found them or maybe they fell apart, or maybe they don't exist because it was not a quarry.
@@robertfarrior7275 all valid arguments, i admit.
I love that you are being skeptical and honest while assessing this. When I look at the 3D model of the place it doesn’t look very manmade to me but the fact the above ground tombs are so similar makes me think twice about it. Thanks for the video!
There is NO WAY ocean currents shaped this rock. Diving around it can be very dangerous as well. The scale of stone that was removed (supposedly) is massive, and it really tickles the mind when trying to surmise its purpose.
Hey! I found your channel last week, and I absolutely love your videos! I think I've almost watched everything you have! 😊 just wanted to say Hey all the way from Australia✌🏾 🇦🇺
For the algorithms 👍🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
Ever heard of the Tongan trilithon?
Nuance without conclusion is wisdom, nicely done :)
Great food for thought!
Personally, I find it has too much non-fractal geometry to be natural. Comparing this to the hex stones where they are all the same size/shape doesn't really work. These cuts are all different. Your theory that this was an ancient quarry is most likely correct, but not being able to see it in person just makes it guesswork for the most part.
Sure looks like either a quarry or a big fortress. I'm curious if the eyes and mouth on the "Iron Man" face are windows. It looks like it would make a good spot to point a crossbow out of if it were a fortress. Has anyone ever found an entrance? I'm curious if it was hollowed out like you see certain locations around Earth where this was done in solid granite or basalt.
I need videos like this from you in my life far more often!
What do we know about the geology of the area? Is it near the edge of a specific kind of rock or a fault? It being a quarry was my initial impression as well(not a geologist). We're finding sites like gobekli tepe dating back more than 10,000 years and it's always unlikely we've somehow found the 'first' of something. This site and something like 80% of the east china sea were above sea level for thousands of years. There's no reason to exclude the possibility of megalithic construction at this time and place.
Megalithic construction predates written history. This is no longer a fringe argument. Why would we assume a bunch of hunter-gatherers were capable of it, but more sophisticated(relatively) civilizations near coastal areas(now 200ft underwater) were not?
Trust your eyes. This has been something I've been obsessed with for years even before I started youtubing megalithic structures. This one feels so obvious to me.
Thanks for making a video discussion of it. Such a mesmerizing site. Never considered it as a quarry but i think it makes sense. I always thought it seemed comparable to the Ziggurat of Ur. Also the lines (layers) in the rock you refer to is described as sedimentary. It's from compaction of land over time into layers
Unfortunately if anyone has the answers I'm skeptical we will ever be privy to the info. Thanks for the content
Also, anyone please correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think bed rock experiences liquidification and isn't prone to sinking. Assuming this is the work of humans, it would had to of been carved when sea levels were lower
The hexagonal rock in your video is formed by molten rock that solidifies and cools very slowly allowing the crystalline structure to take this shape. If you look at Devil’s Tower in Wyoming, which used to be the interior of an ancient volcano, the rocky pillared structure has a similar shape to it. There are many examples of this type of formation around the world. Natural!
Nam madol (?) and another place in Indonesia (?) built of these types of rock.
Another interesting take on ancient formations. I enjoy your videos.
Yes it's most likely man made because as we evolved people did everything to try and reach the sun. That monument is the farthest East you could travel on the planets longest East West line of land. Gobekli came after when people tried to located the center of the same longest East West line.. And Giza came after that once people figured out where the longest East West land crosses the longest North South land. People followed the sun as far as possible West to see where it was going and far as possible East to find where it was coming from over and over each time stuck at the water's edge with their mind's racing on what to do next.. We thought about the sun for a million years and must have followed it for at least 100,000 years. This was the main driver of evolution. Eventually all cultures located the longest East West lands in their areas and created structures based on the light to contemplate the sun further.
Thats the strangest theory set i have ever heard. Hard to follow. Doesn't make sense at all.
Yeah, I'm undecided one way or the other, as well...
I just love listening to the way you talk and describe things...
🤗
I was mulling this over with my cat and we both came to the same conclusion; that it most likely was a spacecraft landing dock. Utilized prior to the Great Melting of the last Ice Age, these are the remnants of its prior structure. Buried under the turblent sea for thousands of years, shaken by underground geo-forces, beaten and battered by constant angry currents, carving and consuming the once epic landscape to leave what we mere earthlings decipher now as just naturally occuring rock formations.
I've only recently found your channel and I find it very informative and entertaining. You do a very good and thorough job. Thanks for all the hard work you put into it and I look forward to watching for a long time. Thank you !!!🙂
The Baltic Sea Millenium Falcon structure fascinates me. Love to see you do a video on it.
It looks like a combination of an “All of the above” geological and man made formation.
This is Japan after all with it’s proximity to multiple fault locations, numerous tsunamis, and having been above sea level during the last ice age, much of this is certainly natural.
Now, if you are a neolithic civilization, it’s highly probable that the local humans would have taken advantage of the naturally occurring geometric blocks for their buildings, monuments and memorials. That would explain the lack of natural rubble that occurs in formations like that. On the North Shore of Lake Superior in Minnesota there are many geologic rock formations of volcanic origin that have similar fracturing and geometric shapes BUT there are massive rubble piles under the water left behind as evidence of its natural origin. Spectacular Palisade Head being one of them.
Thank you Johanna for another great video!
I love your videos. I don't know if commenting on your videos really does help, but if it does, then I'm more than thrilled to help.
@Funny Olde World, The other day I watched a video about the possibility of a 2nd sphinx on the Giza plateau. Just like how you're back n forth with this site, I was the same way with the 2nd sphinx footage. Maybe while you are over there you could get to the bottom of that for us? That would be awesome. Anyhow, have a great trip and safe travels to you. Keep up the good work!!!
I just stumbled across this channel and the content is in my wheel house I don't know how I haven't seen it before I'll be subscribing for sure ...great pictures love the narration and she is absolutely gorgeous LOL so a win on all fronts
I think you covered the options well. 1. what is it's composition? Does it break or fragment into geometric corners? 2. What do the experts say about if/when the structure was ever ABOVE sea level? 3. If it was a quarry, where can you locate the slabs were used? They couldn't travel too far at that weight/size. If could be a case of composition/ tectonic/erosion... But yes, soo many chunks are missing.
great show, Indie! love how you keep an open mind and delve into the possibilities. a quarry? perhaps. tectonic and/or seismic forces could have caused it to sink, and, rising sea levels inundated the area. but, i don't think it is any kind of temple, or what have you. Ole Ma Nature IS capable of some very strange and interesting geometric structures. more research and thought needs to be applied to sites like this.
so, Ms James, just keep on keepin on the way you are. and, go have a great gallavant to Egypt! so what if you don't upload for a while. i know it'll be worth the wait to see the amazing video you'll shoot there! i'll miss your smiling face, for sure. but the coming attractions will be excellent, i've no doubt. have fun and stay safe, my dear!
My favorite person on earth! Let’s go! So entertaining ! ❤️👏🗿
I like the quarry idea.
Paradolia is the word you were looking for.
Love your channel and your mind. 🫶🏽🙏🏽
I think what we might be looking at are the sockets for megalithic blocks for a massive structure that was swept away in a cataclysm in antiquity. One of the reasons I think that is the lack of erosion on the exposed surfaces. This would also explain the missing blocks supposedly cut from the "quarry". Just a thought.
I live in Washington state. We have tons of columnar basalt. This is the same rock as the Giants Causeway. When the lava cools it forms these hexagons naturally. Its so common around here, neighborhoods use the stone as signs with the neighberhood name on it.
The scablands in Eastern Washington are largely comprised of columnar basalt also.
Oregon side of the Columbia gorge as well. They can be seen vertically and are nicknamed ‘French fries’
There's thousands of examples of pareidolia that you could have chosen. The fact that you chose the drunk octopus made me so happy.
I can't wait for the next one I think you're absolutely fabulous 😜👏👏👏👍👍🤗🤗☮️❤️💯
Very good video! Just a thought
If there isn't rocks below that have fallen off at that location , are there rocks below at the bottom of that other nearby cliff?
If anyone has checked there and can see pieces that have fallen off, it would be an interesting comparison.
I like your view from both sides, it's excellent! To often we only see one side at a time.
We are spending three weeks in Egypt this December to see many of the places, you Ben, Yousef, and others have made videos about😁
Keep up the great work!
I’ve only seen pics like you. But I’ve always thought it was a quarry, from the first time I seen it on-line. My thoughts haven’t changed
Finally your back.
Great balanced look! Thank you
Hey Jahannah.. yeah i agree. I've thought it was a quarry site for awhile too. Especially when you take a look at the surrounding underwater land features (surrounding the monument) which remind me almost exactly of Kilasa Temple in India. It also looks blocky and quarried. Its likely seismic activity had an effect of the current position and features, but the monument itself, being oblong in shape, seems too hand excavated to be completely natural. It would be wrong to say humans may have "built" it, because that would indicate we took materials and built up or upon to create a structure. This is more likely carved, excavated, and chipped away at for use elsewhere, or to form flat usable areas and staircases down to boats, where perhaps once a thriving sea port or fish market existed. Being solid in nature, there would be no evidence of any wooden structures they may have once constructed upon it left of course.
4:51 Nan Madol and Gunung Padang are both made almost entirely of the same type of hexagonal slabs.
If I'm not mistaken it's the remnants of an old volcano, a basalt column that crystalizes in this particular way, while the rest of the volcano has eroded away
Volcanic plugs (Devils Tower) and flood basalts (Washington State) that are thick enough commonly form hexagonal jointing.
This is your best test. Thank you
The best idea I have heard on this monument
As a quarry makes a lot of sense
The "roads" you pointed out made me think of the carved channels in the ground used to transport water, similar to the roman aqueducts but cut into the ground rather than built above it. Luke Caverns was on the Forbidden Frontier show last week (on the Nerdrotic Live YT channel) and I believe he talked about those that he's seen in ancient cities discovered deep in the Amazon.
4:30 regarding Hexagon shaped rock formations there are other places around the world that they occur. For instance at Fingal Head on the southern end of the Gold Coast (just south of the NSW-Queensland Border) in Australia is a very well known and easily accessible formation jutting out into the Pacific. This was formed when Lava from nearby Mt Warning entered the ocean and cooled rapidly.
I'm new to the page and I must say, I love your content!! I'm totally crushing right now. Lol. You are absolutely brilliant and gorgeous. Looking forward to the next video!
I like Your idea of Quary. Makes most sense to me
I’ve never heard the quarry theory. And now it all makes PERFECT sense. That’s it solved for me.
I like your theory about it possibly being an old quarry site.
Has anyone checked the stone composition for a match with the large stone steps that would’ve led up to the Ryukyu grand buildings(or ruins that remain)?
Johannah, I agree with one of your suggestions that it is a quarry site. And masons are taking advantage of nature's head start of straight, flat & right angle creations. So this solves the ambiguity of natural formations & man made alterations of the rock formations.
Never thought about yonaguni as a quarry but 100% agree it could very well be a quarry
Facial pareidolia is the name of the phenomenon in which we see faces in seemingly innocuous objects.
It’s generally believed to have helped us to identify potential predators back in the day when that was a necessary worry.
I have to give it to you. Pretty levelheaded analysis
Great content as usual
Hexagons are a very regular shape in nature. (Hexagons are the bestagons is a cool vid about it) It's found in fluid dynamics (Saturn's polar hexagon) and other odd places as well. It's also linked to 1/137, (the fine builders constant).
I just stumbled into your channel and really enjoy it =)
very interesting. I've have watching expedition unknown season 10, episode 8 is in saqqara and episode 14 is about the Etruscan civilization, which some of their structures look like this.
Maybe they moored fishing vessels here when some of it was above water. Over 1000s of years, the water level rose and fell and people cut out levels of steps, platforms, etc.
In 1998 on a night flight from Tokyo to Atlanta, about 100 to 200 miles east of Tokyo, I saw what appeared to be a very large city of lights under the water. It was not a flotilla or an oceanic research station or any such thing. It was as big or bigger than any major metropolitan city and very well lighted. It wasn’t bioluminescent aquatic species or anything like that. It was a very large underwater city, or it was a gigantic mothership. I even tried to get the lady sitting next to me to look at it. She just quickly glanced at it, said something like “hmm that’s strange” and went back to the book she was reading. I was flabbergasted. I thought about calling a stewardess and asking if they knew what that could be, but decided to drop it. To this day, I’m convinced there’s a huge alien base, or city, or spaceship under the ocean off the east coast of Japan 🇯🇵.
I appreciate your open mind about this. I too easily lean on the man-made side but the truth is we don’t know.
Great vidjaeo again! Looks like a quarry to me. I haven't heard about the Baltic Sea anomaly in a while. What are your thoughts on that?
When I heard of this I did the same thing first looked at the surrounding area above water for similar features 😅.. love your channel great videos
4:50: If you think Giant's Causeway - formed by rapidly cooling larval basalt - is impressive, check out Fingal's Cave on Staffa at the other end of that formation, 60 miles across the Irish Sea. (Fingal was the giant, known as Finn McCool in Ireland.) There are numerous spectacular formations of columnar basalt around the world.
The Giant's Causeway formations also show up in Devils Tower in Wyoming. Really interesting stuff.
Hi, love your videos, been watching for a while now and have been meaning to ask a completely unrelated question to the topics at hand; do you make clothes? Cause the dress form in the bg keeps catching my eye in your videos.
I love the red granite around that square peg hole. I agree that its very ambiguous, largely because the ocean erodes so much. The side likely was largely a natural formation that was inhabited and modified a bit during the ice age when the formation was above sea level.
😂 This channel is AWESOME!!! 😁
This episode is amazing 🤟
12:36
re: 'boreholes' if you search "blow holes" you'll see that they can and do occur naturally at coastal area with caves. the waves smash into the cave entrances and then force the water up to top of cave, under right conditions in cave , this wave action eventually blows hole right through to open air above. the pics u see from search will give u much clearer idea.
again, it's just a possible scenario. (two of them so close together would seem odd, but ...)
Please! Please! No comments that ask if one's ever heard of this guy on UA-cam, Jimmy's Bright Insight channel. Anyone who does should get banned.
The tessellated pavement in Tasmania is cool too. And another thing is apparently it's only one small section that is always shown on this. All the surrounding area looks completely normal apparently.
There's a lot of old sculpture around Japan, that seems to have a theme of merging worked lines and surfaces with natural form and texture. I don't know what to think, only it's nice to look at. I'm sure the sculptures had their reasons!
The channel she showed in the video that has a “roadway” appears to have “scooping” of rock removal in it. This exact formation appears in the other megalithic quarry site with the unfinished megalith. The sides appear scooped out exactly the same way.
