      I know this comment was a joke, but this is what really bugs me about a lot of conspiracy theories.
      "The only people who know the truth are me and those who watch this web series/follow this website that knows exactly what's going on! The people who caused [Insert Conspiracy Theory] just want you to think it actually happened because you're dumb!"
      If they had the power to cause said thing to happen, wouldn't they also have the power to just take down whatever it is that you found out this information from and thus keep people from finding out the truth? Like, I see so many people showing random-ass websites as "proof" of outlandish claims for things done by world governments or the Illuminati or some shit, and yet they don't stop and think that these governments/groups definitely would have the power to just remove those sites or bury that information or even just have these dudes taken out so random people can't find out "the truth" about what they're doing.

      The interesting thing is that in ancient pagan religions if you came up with a story about a deity or great hero and were convincing enough, it would most probably become canon in your religion, or would spawn its own cult. By that logic, Marvel's iteration of Thor is just as canon as the Poetic Edda. (Thor didn't appear in the Poetic Edda, at least, I don't think, but you get my point)

The total acreage of the 2 islands is 140 acres. They have dug, excavated (different technique), metal detected, theorized, conferenced, consulted, on and on and on. The episodes are mixed up with past season clips, an annoying narrator, and just about every modern device known to to subsoil detection and recovery of whatever. It’s still running after 12 or more years. Nada. I don’t bother; they will not stop until the money runs out.

    Ancient Aliens amuses the heck outta me despite the fact (or because of it maybe) that it is complete goofy rubbish. But I've watched all the episodes of the first 8 seasons (many multiple times, and I have favorites) because I love lost deluded Georgio and all his crew. I feel like this video gets me. Thank you for doing this.

      'less mainstream' again and somehow silenced by the reptilians and the funny hair alien guy who's clearly doing magic with his hands in the meme.
      But with enough controversies the show would probably be a success.

      I do agree that ancient aliens is a religion . I also agree that some of their theorys are a bit far fetched . However, I also believe that they get it right in some instances . I think that no matter what Jesus would have been an alien as he is a spiritual being and not of this world. Anything not of this world would be alien. Artificial insemination would be one way of describing immaculate conception . The powers needed to separate the red Sea could have been superior technology and anything that was done that early man didn't understand, including aliens with super powers , or space ships , or whatever , would seem miraculous and certainly they would have been considered God's. I also think that there is evidence in support of those claims. For example, if it wasn't a space ship that was painted in some of our old masterpieces than what was it? And there's the old sculptures that show astronauts in space suits. Why would they even exist unless they were made by people who saw them. I think that their theorys are just as good as any other theory and they make sense to me. They made me more of a believer than a non believer . I don't think that evolution got it right.

Take for example what went down with Jeff Epstein, there had been many folktalkes/conspiracy theories about this "globalist p*do satanist spy elite and etc. etc." for many many years, and having watched for long that kind of content online (guilty pleasure of mine, please don't judge lol, I'm a 2000s history channel kid, so it's only natural I'd gravitate towards 2010s InfoWars youtube lol) I notice that this very panicked and paranoid followers of this kind of belief held onto that version of reality even more with the "little glimpse at the true state of the (new) world (order)" that was Epstein. Similar to people who believe in UFOs, who only need one extraordinary story to feel like every single other is proved. If one alien, let's call him Epstein Alien, came out public, and got suddenly silenced by the "deep state, the clintons xD, the Mossad, Israel, China, idfkwho" there you'll go, you'd have a sheep completely immovable from that conspiracy theory religion just waiting for a shephard to come and save them from the people denying and hiding the "real truth". And thus Alex Jones becomes POTUS, with Giorgio Tsoukalos as Vice Pres. Just as Pizzagate helped Donny. Ok i got carried away. But if "the government was trying to hide it" than I think it'd be more likely for there to be an Epstein story, there is always something that escapes in this day and age. Sorry for the ramble.

    I actually met one of these people at the Nasca lines in Peru when I was backpacking through South America in 2009. He was really exited to tell us about all of his publications on ancient aliens. We had fun hearing what he had to say and then laughing when he was out of ear shot.
    We saw him again in an Inca museum a few days later, where he was filming a "documentary". We had just recieved a guided tour where we learned how the ancient Incas tied planks of wood to infants' heads to give them that particular head shape. It was really quite interesting. Then we saw the ancient aliens guy filming his documentary, talking about how the special head shapes might be evidence that the Incas interbred with aliens, and that they had "better psycic abilities". Whatever the hell that means.
    So we have two competing explanations: planks of wood or interbreeding with space aliens. I know whch one I find more likely.

      Biology is actually really hard to define, clear-cut and species are in some ways an arbitrary classification. Reproduction is a big indicator, but it's not a certainty or a perfect method to define a species. It's this variation and arbitrary-ness that causes taxons to be constantly shifted around as more information is obtained.
