Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:03,180 --> 00:00:07,200
Megalithic structures
in the middle of the ocean.
2
00:00:07,260 --> 00:00:10,060
Legends state that
stones were actually flown
3
00:00:10,120 --> 00:00:12,480
from one part of
the island to another.
4
00:00:13,300 --> 00:00:15,140
Terrifying creatures.
5
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,320
There are stories about giants
6
00:00:17,380 --> 00:00:20,240
killing people and
taking over things.
7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,100
And mysterious events
on the open sea.
8
00:00:24,260 --> 00:00:27,020
How can an island just disappear?
9
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:31,020
Are the stories
of lost civilizations
10
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,120
and unreachable paradises simply
11
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:37,060
the product of
imaginative seafarers?
12
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:40,480
Or could there be remote
locations all over the world
13
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,400
that are secret bases
for extraterrestrials?
14
00:00:45,380 --> 00:00:48,480
There have been sightings, on the
Isle of Man going back centuries,
15
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,340
of what are described
as "fiery wheels... in the sky.
16
00:00:52,460 --> 00:00:54,220
They're in the middle of the ocean.
17
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,200
There's just nothing
that's supposed to be there,
18
00:00:56,260 --> 00:00:59,080
and yet there's activity
being reported there.
19
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,100
Millions of people
around the world believe
20
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:07,160
we have been visited in the
past by extraterrestrial beings.
21
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,480
What if it were true?
22
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,160
Did ancient aliens really
help to shape our history?
23
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:20,320
And if so, might we find
proof by exploring the world's
24
00:01:20,380 --> 00:01:22,060
forbidden islands?
25
00:01:52,420 --> 00:01:55,140
March 1963.
26
00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:00,020
75 miles off the
coast of Puerto Rico.
27
00:02:01,300 --> 00:02:04,200
While training in
antisubmarine maneuvers,
28
00:02:04,380 --> 00:02:09,400
the United States Navy's fleet - led
by the USS Wasp aircraft carrier -
29
00:02:09,460 --> 00:02:14,100
detects an unknown sonar
target moving in the nearby waters.
30
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,360
For four days the fleet
tracked the unknown object,
31
00:02:19,460 --> 00:02:23,280
recording its speed
at more than 150 knots,
32
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,080
or 170 miles per hour.
33
00:02:30,100 --> 00:02:36,060
There is nothing in any naval
inventory anywhere in the world
34
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,340
that can approach anything
remotely that speed.
35
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,060
Not then, not now.
36
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,280
Moreover, the object descended
37
00:02:42,340 --> 00:02:45,480
to a depth of something
like 27,000 feet.
38
00:02:46,180 --> 00:02:47,420
Again, another impossibility.
39
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,380
The pressures down
there are vastly too much
40
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,200
and would crush any vessel
that went down that deep.
41
00:02:54,260 --> 00:02:56,420
At that time,
with the technology that we had,
42
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,160
the best that we could do,
underwater,
43
00:02:59,220 --> 00:03:00,340
was about forty-five knots,
44
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,260
and a maximum depth of
about three thousand feet.
45
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,400
For the last hundred, two
hundred years, there have been many,
46
00:03:08,460 --> 00:03:13,040
many accounts of objects
that have been seen underwater.
47
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,480
But exactly what they are,
we still do not know.
48
00:03:18,420 --> 00:03:20,020
There's been a tremendous
49
00:03:20,100 --> 00:03:24,180
surge of UFO sightings in
Puerto Rico since the early 1990s.
50
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,240
And for many of the
Puerto Rican witnesses,
51
00:03:27,300 --> 00:03:29,480
they're absolutely convinced
that there's some sort
52
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,280
of massive futuristic
53
00:03:31,380 --> 00:03:35,420
installation deep below
Puerto Rico under the ocean bed.
54
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,400
Is it possible that aliens
have bases here on earth,
55
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:49,160
hidden deep underwater,
and off the coasts of islands?
56
00:03:50,100 --> 00:03:54,160
Could this explain why
so many islands around the world
57
00:03:54,380 --> 00:03:58,120
have stories of unexplained
sightings of objects
58
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,420
both overhead and beneath the sea?
59
00:04:05,020 --> 00:04:08,020
An isolated island would
be a perfect location for, say,
60
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:12,080
extraterrestrial beings
to make their base of operations.
61
00:04:12,140 --> 00:04:16,240
Radar could spot any kind
of craft in orbit very quickly.
62
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,220
However,
if you had your base underwater,
63
00:04:20,280 --> 00:04:21,400
near an island,
64
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,360
a lot more difficult
to be discovered.
65
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:30,440
Islands are essentially mountains
that are mostly underwater.
66
00:04:31,140 --> 00:04:34,020
What they are,
in essence, is energetic upwellings
67
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,380
of the energy of the earth,
68
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,180
pushing higher,
and higher, and higher.
69
00:04:38,020 --> 00:04:41,140
Logically, these types of
locations would be very attractive
70
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,240
to visitors from another world,
especially visitors
71
00:04:43,300 --> 00:04:46,460
that would be looking for
an ideal place to set up a base,
72
00:04:47,020 --> 00:04:49,380
or a landing spot, or simply a place
73
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,060
where they could draw
some of the earth's energy.
74
00:04:58,280 --> 00:05:00,040
The Aleutian Islands.
75
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:02,420
Just off the Alaskan coast,
76
00:05:03,140 --> 00:05:06,140
this chain of more
than 100 small islands
77
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,240
extends west for 1100 miles,
78
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,100
separating the Bering
Sea from the Pacific Ocean.
79
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:21,080
Here, in the summer of 1945,
80
00:05:22,100 --> 00:05:24,400
fourteen crewmembers
of the United States Army
81
00:05:24,460 --> 00:05:28,360
Transport Delarof reported
seeing what they believed
82
00:05:28,460 --> 00:05:34,100
to be a large UFO emerge from
the waters near the island of Adak.
83
00:05:36,100 --> 00:05:40,100
It is reported that
a round object that appeared
84
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,280
dark against the setting sun
at the time actually rose vertically
85
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:50,260
into the air and then
circled the boat two,
86
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,100
or possibly three, times.
87
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:56,260
And was visible for about seven
or eight minutes before it vanished.
88
00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,200
Something that comes
out of the water,
89
00:05:59,260 --> 00:06:01,220
circles around and
then takes off like that,
90
00:06:01,280 --> 00:06:04,060
that's well beyond anything
we're supposed to have.
91
00:06:05,220 --> 00:06:07,220
And they're in the
middle of the ocean.
92
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:08,420
That's the important
thing to remember here.
93
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,460
There's just nothing,
nothing that's supposed to be there,
94
00:06:12,020 --> 00:06:14,140
and yet there's activity
being reported there.
95
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:22,140
UFO sightings around the Aleutian
Islands continue to this day.
96
00:06:23,060 --> 00:06:24,260
But why?
97
00:06:25,300 --> 00:06:28,140
Is it perhaps more
than mere coincidence
98
00:06:28,280 --> 00:06:30,380
that the native people
known as the Aleuts
99
00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:33,180
believe this is the exact spot
100
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,420
where their ancestors
first descended from the skies?
101
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,060
The Aleuts believed they descended
102
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,180
from a creature that
had come from the sky.
103
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,380
A dog actually had fallen
to the island of Umnak
104
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,360
and had had two pups with paws.
105
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:58,060
But the children that came
from those two were perfect humans.
106
00:06:58,220 --> 00:07:00,480
So by way of this
descent from the heavens
107
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:05,120
and by way of animal form,
we get the Aleutian people.
108
00:07:06,180 --> 00:07:08,040
I find it intriguing
109
00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:11,380
that the Aleut's origin
story has something to do
110
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:15,240
with them having
arrived from the sky,
111
00:07:15,300 --> 00:07:17,460
essentially saying
that they have been seeded.
112
00:07:18,020 --> 00:07:21,300
So the fact that to this
day that area of the world
113
00:07:22,020 --> 00:07:27,200
is considered a hot spot
for UFOs to me is not coincidence.
114
00:07:31,020 --> 00:07:35,040
There have been rumors that
there is an underground alien,
115
00:07:35,100 --> 00:07:37,300
or UFO base,
in the Aleutian Islands.
116
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,200
The question is: Could
a base really exist there?
117
00:07:40,260 --> 00:07:41,480
And, the answer is yeah.
118
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,380
There's plenty of places... knolls,
atolls, volcanoes
119
00:07:48,020 --> 00:07:49,060
where, if hollowed out,
120
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,340
they would pretty much
make ideal bases for UFOs
121
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,160
to use to come and
go as they please,
122
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,200
and to investigate that area.
123
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,320
Could there really be a connection
124
00:07:59,420 --> 00:08:02,120
between the high
number of UFO sightings
125
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,200
and the Aleuts' origin story?
126
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,280
Ancient Astronaut theorists say yes,
127
00:08:09,340 --> 00:08:12,100
and as evidence
they point to the fact
128
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,460
that similar legends exist
on other remote islands -
129
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,260
islands that have
also had reports of UFOs.
130
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:34,020
Five thousand miles to
the east of the Aleutian Islands,
131
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:38,340
nestled in the Irish Sea,
lies the Isle of Man.
132
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,160
According to legend,
the Isle of Man was founded
133
00:08:44,220 --> 00:08:48,160
by a mystical race of Celts,
the Tuatha de Danann,
134
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,480
who possessed magical powers.
135
00:08:53,140 --> 00:08:57,000
Banished from heaven for their
sorcery and advanced knowledge,
136
00:08:57,100 --> 00:09:00,140
they descended on Ireland
in a cloud of mist.
137
00:09:03,100 --> 00:09:04,420
It's said that at
the end of their time,
138
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,320
they just sort of vanished.
139
00:09:07,180 --> 00:09:10,300
Left behind their ghosts,
quite literally,
140
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,480
and these are remembered
in the folklore of the Isle of Man
141
00:09:15,140 --> 00:09:17,120
as the "Little People....
142
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,340
The so-called "Little People...
143
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,180
are believed by the locals
144
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,320
to be able to put humans
under a magical spell -
145
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:32,420
a spell in which all awareness
of space and time is lost.
146
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,040
Kidnapping human beings
147
00:09:37,140 --> 00:09:40,340
is one of the chief activities
of the Little People.
148
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:45,360
And the whole point of these
stories is that the humans tend
149
00:09:45,420 --> 00:09:48,320
to come back from the other realm,
150
00:09:49,380 --> 00:09:52,400
often finding that hundreds
of years have passed.
151
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,060
This sounds really, really
similar to what people experience
152
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,440
sometimes during
alien abduction events,
153
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,180
where a ship will show up.
154
00:10:04,420 --> 00:10:06,420
The very small aliens will come out.
155
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,160
They'll find themselves paralyzed;
156
00:10:08,220 --> 00:10:10,220
they'll have missing
time experiences.
157
00:10:11,100 --> 00:10:13,260
And, there's reason to believe
that the little people may have,
158
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,320
in fact, been extraterrestrials -
159
00:10:15,380 --> 00:10:17,460
the same "greys,...
as we describe them -
160
00:10:18,020 --> 00:10:20,220
that perform the same
types of magical enchantment
161
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,120
on people that they abduct today.
162
00:10:26,420 --> 00:10:28,420
Could the legends
of the "Little People...
163
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,200
and the ancestral Tuatha de Danann
164
00:10:31,260 --> 00:10:34,300
actually be describing
otherworldy beings
165
00:10:34,420 --> 00:10:37,100
that came to Earth
in the distant past?
166
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,480
And if so,
might these legends be connected
167
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,320
to modern day UFO sightings
over the Isle of Man?
168
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,080
Locals claim that these UFO
sightings have been
169
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:53,460
reported for centuries,
170
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,180
and for ancient astronaut theorists,
171
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:03,260
the most compelling sighting
of all is a 2500-year-old report
172
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:07,440
of a fiery wheel with three
spokes descending from the heavens.
173
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,400
According to legend
on the Isle of Man,
174
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:17,260
some fishermen were washed
ashore during a terrible storm.
175
00:11:18,100 --> 00:11:21,060
Suddenly this three-spoked craft
176
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,400
came out of the clouds
terrifying them.
177
00:11:25,100 --> 00:11:28,300
There have been sightings, on the
Isle of Man going back centuries,
178
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:32,420
of what are described as wheels or
"fiery wheels... in the sky.
179
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,200
Now, these descriptions
are almost identical
180
00:11:35,260 --> 00:11:38,240
to the description of the
wheel of Ezekiel in the Bible.
181
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,280
According to Ezekiel chapter one,
182
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,420
the prophet saw a flying
object described as four wheels
183
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:51,120
within a wheel - an account
that ancient astronaut theorists say
184
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,120
is not of an angel,
185
00:11:53,300 --> 00:11:56,240
but of an extraterrestrial
spacecraft.
186
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,200
Biblical scholars
have very much struggled
187
00:11:59,260 --> 00:12:01,240
with the description
of Ezekiel's wheel -
188
00:12:01,300 --> 00:12:03,300
seeing wheels within wheels,
189
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,420
the idea that a cherub
was standing next to each wheel.
190
00:12:07,140 --> 00:12:10,300
It's very clear that he's
describing some type of device.
191
00:12:12,260 --> 00:12:15,300
Ezekiel describes
wheels within a wheel,
192
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,140
and eyes of different animals,
193
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,280
and they're all gleaming
like bronze, and metal.
194
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,140
So what is really described here?
195
00:12:25,340 --> 00:12:27,440
It reads much more like an encounter
196
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,420
with some type of
an extraterrestrial craft
197
00:12:31,020 --> 00:12:35,180
that was misinterpreted
as some type of a divine event.
198
00:12:39,140 --> 00:12:42,060
So you have to think
really that Isle of Man
199
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:47,100
was some kind of island that
was chosen by the extraterrestrials.
200
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,060
This was one of their bases.
201
00:12:49,180 --> 00:12:51,280
They would land their UFOs there.
202
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,360
And in fact, legends about UFOs
203
00:12:54,420 --> 00:12:58,080
and extraterrestrials continue
on the island even to this day.
204
00:13:03,300 --> 00:13:07,240
Could these islands actually
contain alien base camps,
205
00:13:07,340 --> 00:13:10,160
as ancient astronaut
theorists contend?
206
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,020
And might these powerful locations
207
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,140
reveal important
knowledge for mankind?
208
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,160
Perhaps clues can be found
209
00:13:20,220 --> 00:13:23,160
in another mysterious
Pacific island chain
210
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,240
9200 miles to the southeast -
211
00:13:26,300 --> 00:13:31,080
an area rumored to
be inhabited by giants.
212
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,960
The Solomon Islands.
213
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,420
800 miles East of Papua New Guinea,
214
00:13:42,260 --> 00:13:47,360
this group of nearly 1000
isles covers 11,000 square miles.
215
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:54,120
Though first discovered
in 1568 by Spanish explorers,
216
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,380
many people identify
this area with World War II
217
00:13:59,060 --> 00:14:02,060
due to the fierce fighting
that occurred between the Japanese
218
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:07,300
and Americans on the largest
island here, Guadalcanal.
219
00:14:10,140 --> 00:14:13,220
In a campaign that
lasted over six months,
220
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,320
a total of 41 warships were sunk
221
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,420
and over 30,000 men died
either in battle or from disease.
222
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:23,400
The Americans and Japanese,
223
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:27,020
they left behind a lot
of the remnants of the war.
224
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,100
Ships that were sank for instance.
225
00:14:30,340 --> 00:14:34,300
And then on land you
have leftovers of tanks
226
00:14:34,420 --> 00:14:37,040
and a lot of ammunitions as well.
227
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:41,040
There was a place close to where
I went to school called Hell's Point
228
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,140
and it's full of live ammunitions.
229
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,240
But Guadalcanal is also
infamous for something else -
230
00:14:51,980 --> 00:14:55,220
the countless local
legends of giants.
231
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,280
There are mysterious legends
all over the Solomons actually.
232
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,400
A lot of the stories
from Guadalcanal tend
233
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:07,260
to talk about giants.
234
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,420
The relationship between
people and giants.
235
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,020
Giants are often portrayed
in different ways.
236
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,140
Sometimes they are
benevolent giants.
237
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,140
They help people.
They look after people.
238
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,980
But there are stories about giants
239
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,300
killing people and
taking over things.
240
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:35,020
So giant is a major character
in a lot of the Guadalcanal stories.
241
00:15:38,020 --> 00:15:41,360
There are legends and stories that
go way back that suggest that giants
242
00:15:41,420 --> 00:15:44,180
actually still live
on the Solomon Islands.
243
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,220
Some say they're
kind of hairy beast,
244
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,260
Sasquatch-like kind of beings.
245
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,980
Others say they're more humanoid.
246
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,080
And some say they even relate
247
00:15:53,140 --> 00:15:56,120
and kind of mate with
the human population.
248
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,380
According to local legends,
249
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,420
those giants were able to travel
250
00:16:03,980 --> 00:16:05,400
the entire length of the island
251
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:11,200
without seeing the light of day
by utilizing subterranean tunnels.
252
00:16:12,420 --> 00:16:17,160
People talk about it
that giants actually do exist.
253
00:16:17,380 --> 00:16:19,240
They existed in the past.
254
00:16:19,420 --> 00:16:23,120
Today with all kinds
of developments taking place,
255
00:16:24,300 --> 00:16:27,100
they shifted further
into the mountains.
256
00:16:28,100 --> 00:16:29,340
They really do exist.
257
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,300
It's not just a mythology
to scare children.
258
00:16:36,300 --> 00:16:40,060
According to one report, in 1998,
259
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,300
workers during a gold-mining
operation witnessed
260
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:47,160
what they believe is proof
of the existence of the giants
261
00:16:47,220 --> 00:16:51,300
of Guadalcanal when one
of their bulldozers broke down.
262
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,420
The workers say they
removed the ten-ton blade
263
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,340
from the machine to
make overnight repairs,
264
00:16:59,060 --> 00:17:02,000
and when they returned
to the dig site the next morning,
265
00:17:02,100 --> 00:17:04,400
they were shocked
by what they found.
266
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,120
The blade itself had
been moved quite a distance
267
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:12,200
and they found footprints
of giants in the mud.
268
00:17:15,980 --> 00:17:18,300
So they could only assume
that these famous giants
269
00:17:18,360 --> 00:17:23,040
of the Solomon Islands had been
there and moved the bulldozer blade.
270
00:17:25,220 --> 00:17:29,060
Could Guadalcanal
really be home to giants?
271
00:17:30,060 --> 00:17:32,140
If so, what are they?
272
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,020
And where did they come from?
273
00:17:37,100 --> 00:17:40,020
In the book "Solomon
Islands Mysteries,...
274
00:17:40,180 --> 00:17:44,240
author Marius Boirayon,
a retired helicopter engineer
275
00:17:44,340 --> 00:17:46,220
who lived on the Solomon Islands
276
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,020
for many years interviewing locals,
277
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,080
unveils a groundbreaking theory.
278
00:17:52,300 --> 00:17:54,120
The Australian author, Boirayon,
279
00:17:54,180 --> 00:17:57,020
believed that
incidents of the giants
280
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,260
that he'd been told
about by the natives
281
00:17:59,420 --> 00:18:02,300
were related to UFO activity.
282
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:07,060
And from what he could put
together there was some kind of UFO
283
00:18:07,120 --> 00:18:09,160
base deep in the mountains
284
00:18:09,220 --> 00:18:12,200
of Central Guadalcanal
and it involved these giants.
285
00:18:14,020 --> 00:18:15,120
And at the same time
286
00:18:15,180 --> 00:18:19,080
there was some kind of underwater
UFO base there as well.
287
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,340
Eyewitness accounts of UFOs
288
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:30,260
have been documented on
the Solomon Islands for years,
289
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,980
and mysteriously,
details reveal that the UFOs
290
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,260
seem to rise out
of the surrounding ocean
291
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,220
where warships sank in WWII,
292
00:18:41,220 --> 00:18:45,200
and vanish into a remote
mountain lake on the island.
293
00:18:46,340 --> 00:18:50,080
People often talk about
seeing light not only in the sky,
294
00:18:50,340 --> 00:18:52,260
but in the ocean as well;
295
00:18:52,340 --> 00:18:54,340
that you see lights in the ocean
296
00:18:55,140 --> 00:18:59,380
and then you see lights
flying past overhead as well.
297
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,060
And sometimes crashing
into the ocean
298
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,260
like a plane crashing.
299
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:12,220
There have been sightings of flying
saucers appearing over the wreckage,
300
00:19:14,100 --> 00:19:18,380
flying into and out of mountains
and volcanoes in the area.
301
00:19:19,340 --> 00:19:22,100
So, the whole area is
really pretty interesting.
302
00:19:23,420 --> 00:19:27,220
There have been reports
that objects, strange lights,
303
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:32,060
actually rise up out
of the waters into the air,
304
00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:36,140
and move about for a period
of time and then disappear.
305
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,020
And often this is either
witnessed from the beach
306
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:45,040
or is experienced at
close hand by fishermen,
307
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,400
and it is said that
sometimes these objects come
308
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:53,060
so close that the fishermen can
actually feel the heat as they pass.
309
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,000
There was a lot of local
people who had said, "Yes.
310
00:19:59,060 --> 00:20:02,020
For many years we've seen
these types of things happening."
311
00:20:02,380 --> 00:20:06,300
There are numerous
accounts of abductions.
312
00:20:06,420 --> 00:20:11,980
People who disappear after
coming into contact with these UFOs.
313
00:20:13,120 --> 00:20:15,160
Never to be seen again.
314
00:20:18,340 --> 00:20:20,160
Could there be a connection
315
00:20:20,220 --> 00:20:23,160
between the legends
of the giants of Guadalcanal
316
00:20:23,340 --> 00:20:25,300
and the numerous UFO sightings
317
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,240
that have been reported
here over the years?
318
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,000
And might this be
evidence that Guadalcanal
319
00:20:33,060 --> 00:20:37,020
really is the site of
an underwater alien base?
320
00:20:38,340 --> 00:20:41,300
Some ancient astronaut
theorists believe the answers
321
00:20:41,360 --> 00:20:45,960
can be found by examining
stories of other strange creatures
322
00:20:46,020 --> 00:20:50,340
said to inhabit the island
- creatures like the Adaro.
323
00:20:52,360 --> 00:20:56,360
The Adaro were frightening-looking
creatures: half fish, half man.
324
00:20:56,420 --> 00:21:00,060
They were said to have come
from the sun by way of rainbows
325
00:21:00,120 --> 00:21:01,040
and they could be dangerous.
326
00:21:01,100 --> 00:21:04,960
They could shoot poisonous
flying fish at you.
327
00:21:05,140 --> 00:21:08,380
So the notion of some
creature that was of danger
328
00:21:08,420 --> 00:21:12,200
and mythological qualities
coming from far away seems alive
329
00:21:12,260 --> 00:21:14,020
and well in the Solomon Islands.
330
00:21:15,300 --> 00:21:17,220
Chua-Chua is the story
331
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,060
that a lot of people
on Guadalcanal know about,
332
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,980
that these are
actually human beings.
333
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,020
But at certain time
they take different forms.
334
00:21:27,100 --> 00:21:31,120
These are energies that
can shape shift into any form.
335
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,940
These are not just
stories for entertainment
336
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,000
or for scaring the children.
337
00:21:35,060 --> 00:21:36,360
These fears are great.
338
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,260
You have to wonder if these
famous giants of the Solomon islands
339
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,300
and these weird beings were,
in fact,
340
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,260
extraterrestrials
341
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:53,380
that were there to
protect these secret bases.
342
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,020
Is it possible that the
stories of giants, sea monsters,
343
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,180
and other strange
beings on Guadalcanal
344
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,120
are really accounts
of extraterrestrials
345
00:22:05,340 --> 00:22:09,420
who appear as frightening creatures
in order to scare off anyone
346
00:22:10,020 --> 00:22:13,200
who might discover
their secret alien bases?
347
00:22:15,980 --> 00:22:18,280
The Solomon Islands is right
on what we call the ring of fire.
348
00:22:18,340 --> 00:22:19,400
A lot of volcanic activity.
349
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,400
A lot of tectonic and geo activity.
350
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,340
So there's a lot of energy.
351
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,340
One theory would simply
be that if these other beings
352
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:31,020
whatever they are, wanted
access to a good source of energy,
353
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,360
that might be a
very good place to go.
354
00:22:34,260 --> 00:22:38,120
Could the stories from the
Aleutian Islands, the Isle of Man,
355
00:22:38,180 --> 00:22:41,020
and the Solomon Islands be evidence
356
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,960
that there are alien bases
located beneath our seas?
357
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,940
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
358
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:52,380
and point to an island
on the other side of the world
359
00:22:52,420 --> 00:22:56,980
that has archaeologists
mystified even to this day.
360
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,060
The island of Pohnpei.
361
00:23:11,060 --> 00:23:14,240
More than 2500 miles
southwest of Hawaii,
362
00:23:15,120 --> 00:23:18,040
completely isolated
in the Pacific Ocean,
363
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:23,300
this Micronesian landmass
is home to just 34,000 people -
364
00:23:23,860 --> 00:23:26,080
mainly farmers and fishermen.
365
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:31,060
But there is one area of the island
that is completely uninhabited -
366
00:23:32,120 --> 00:23:34,900
the Lost City of Nan Madol.
367
00:23:37,180 --> 00:23:41,940
The native islanders believe
this ancient site is cursed,
368
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:44,100
and it is also home
369
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,860
to some of the most mysterious
archaeological ruins in the world.
370
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:54,340
Built on a coral reef just
off the eastern coast of Pohnpei
371
00:23:54,940 --> 00:23:57,320
and sprawling more than 200 acres,
372
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,260
Nan Madol consists of
92 smaller man-made islands
373
00:24:02,300 --> 00:24:04,880
connected by canals.
374
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,160
According to historians,
this ancient city,
375
00:24:11,260 --> 00:24:13,980
often called the
Venice of the Pacific,
376
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,020
was the capital of
the Saudeleur dynasty
377
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:22,040
that ruled from
about 500 to 1628 AD.
378
00:24:25,120 --> 00:24:30,960
This ancient city housed the
Saudeleurs, the kings of that time.
379
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,020
So, it has their houses.
380
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,260
It has feasting areas.
381
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,180
It has tombs.
382
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:43,160
So there's a whole number of areas
that each of these islets supported.
383
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:48,880
Most archaeologists agree
384
00:24:48,940 --> 00:24:51,200
that construction of
these artificial islands
385
00:24:51,260 --> 00:24:54,320
began sometime in the 13th century.
386
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,280
Each has been formed
with columnar basalt -
387
00:24:59,260 --> 00:25:04,020
a black rock that forms when
basaltic lava from a volcano cools
388
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,180
in the form of columns.
389
00:25:08,060 --> 00:25:12,300
There are a number of columnar
basalt outflows across
390
00:25:12,340 --> 00:25:14,060
Pohnpei itself.
391
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,040
And we know of several
of these outcrops
392
00:25:17,100 --> 00:25:19,960
that were used to mine the basalt.
393
00:25:20,100 --> 00:25:24,260
They were then transported
to the area of Nan Madol.
394
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,880
And then placed to
create these small islets.
395
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,280
But how did the native
people living here 800 years ago
396
00:25:35,940 --> 00:25:40,040
manage to build 92 islets
out of giant basalt columns?
397
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,260
Researchers estimate that
each stone log used to construct
398
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:50,000
the megalithic structures
weighs between 5 to 50 tons.
399
00:25:50,900 --> 00:25:56,280
Stacked to form walls as high
as 25 feet tall and 17 feet thick,
400
00:25:57,120 --> 00:26:00,060
archaeologists believe
that it was an undertaking
401
00:26:00,120 --> 00:26:01,200
that most likely
402
00:26:01,260 --> 00:26:05,900
would have required all 25,000
island inhabitants to complete.
403
00:26:07,940 --> 00:26:10,220
Around the ruins of
Nan Madol are many canals,
404
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,260
which researchers
and archeologists say
405
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,960
were the routes taken by boats
to move these basalt columns across
406
00:26:18,020 --> 00:26:21,120
and around the island to
construct the huge megalithic site.
407
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:29,100
Mainstream scholars insist
people built Nan Madol using ropes,
408
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,000
rollers and rafts,
409
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,920
but attempts to prove
this theory have failed.
410
00:26:38,180 --> 00:26:41,040
If you add up all of the stone logs,
411
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:47,100
you have a weight of
750,000 or so metric tons.
412
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:49,180
That's a lot.
413
00:26:50,220 --> 00:26:55,960
If you were to move
maybe 2000 tons a year,
414
00:26:56,140 --> 00:27:01,220
you might be able to get
it built over about three centuries.
415
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,940
We're talking about a major,
massive effort here.
416
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,320
The kind of effort
that you would see
417
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,120
in the construction
of the pyramids in Egypt.
418
00:27:16,940 --> 00:27:19,100
But could there
be another explanation
419
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:20,920
for how these ancient people
420
00:27:20,980 --> 00:27:25,160
were able to move such massive
rocks miles across the island
421
00:27:25,340 --> 00:27:29,960
and into place in the ocean without
the help of modern machinery?
422
00:27:31,140 --> 00:27:32,940
According to local legends,
423
00:27:33,140 --> 00:27:34,200
the ancient builders
424
00:27:34,340 --> 00:27:37,980
used a much more profound
method of construction -
425
00:27:38,180 --> 00:27:41,320
an advanced anti-gravitational
technology
426
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,240
that ancient astronaut
theorists believe
427
00:27:44,340 --> 00:27:49,160
may explain many of the world's
mysterious megalithic sites.
428
00:27:52,220 --> 00:27:55,860
Some legends state that the stones
were actually flown from one part
429
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,140
of the island to another
or levitated some way
430
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:03,020
to get them up to such high
areas of the main construction.
431
00:28:04,140 --> 00:28:07,240
This is very reminiscent
of what researchers
432
00:28:07,300 --> 00:28:09,900
call auditive levitation,
433
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,340
which was a technique
of raising heavy stones
434
00:28:13,980 --> 00:28:17,860
by matching the sound
frequency of matter,
435
00:28:18,260 --> 00:28:22,280
rendering it weightless
and moving it into place.
436
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,320
The people themselves
437
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,180
who still to this day
live there in Pohnpei say
438
00:28:29,900 --> 00:28:32,100
that this place was not built by us;
439
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,180
it's been here before we arrived.
440
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,900
And they themselves
say that basalt blocks
441
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,260
were moved as if by ghost hand.
442
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:48,920
That is why the natives call
Nan Madol also the City of Ghosts.
443
00:28:54,260 --> 00:28:58,060
Although no written records
on the island's history exist,
444
00:28:58,220 --> 00:29:02,300
its spoken myths and legends
have survived through generations.
445
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:05,100
According to the natives,
446
00:29:05,220 --> 00:29:09,120
Nan Madol has been plagued
by a curse for centuries -
447
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,200
and anyone who explores
the ruins will perish.
448
00:29:17,940 --> 00:29:22,000
The local islanders believe that
the city of Nan Madol is cursed.
449
00:29:22,140 --> 00:29:25,980
And they say they see lights
moving throughout the city at night.
450
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,940
And they believe that if they
spend the night there they'll die.
451
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,120
When the Europeans came to colonize
452
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,980
Micronesia in the early
20th century,
453
00:29:38,060 --> 00:29:41,940
they were advised of Nan
Madol and its alleged spell.
454
00:29:43,340 --> 00:29:45,220
In April of 1907,
455
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,860
the German Governor Victor
Berg disregarded these warnings
456
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,920
and not only explored
the island ruins,
457
00:29:53,100 --> 00:29:56,120
but even opened a tomb
of the ancient rulers.
458
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:00,040
Locals say
459
00:30:00,100 --> 00:30:03,300
Governor Berg was haunted
by strange sounds that night,
460
00:30:03,860 --> 00:30:06,880
and the next morning
mysteriously died.
461
00:30:10,220 --> 00:30:14,200
The local legend said that if you
messed with this site in any way,
462
00:30:14,900 --> 00:30:17,340
it was cursed and in fact, it would
be a terrible price to pay for it.
463
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,340
And it appears that Victor Berg
lost his life because of this curse.
464
00:30:23,020 --> 00:30:28,100
Official records indicate
the governor died April 30, 1907
465
00:30:28,300 --> 00:30:32,280
due to sunstroke and heat exhaustion
while surveying the ruins.
466
00:30:34,220 --> 00:30:37,880
But the natives maintain
that his untimely death
467
00:30:37,940 --> 00:30:40,060
was a result of the curse -
468
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:46,160
and proof that otherworldly powers
guard the mystical island city.
469
00:30:47,100 --> 00:30:48,300
Might the local legends
470
00:30:48,860 --> 00:30:53,320
of supernatural forces at work
on the islands actually be true?
471
00:30:54,100 --> 00:30:55,220
And if so,
472
00:30:55,280 --> 00:31:00,140
just who or what is haunting
these mysterious islands?
473
00:31:02,340 --> 00:31:06,140
Ancient astronaut theorists
claim the strongest evidence
474
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,040
that an advanced race
of extraterrestrials
475
00:31:09,100 --> 00:31:11,160
helped to build Nan Madol
476
00:31:11,260 --> 00:31:13,920
is not the megalithic
rock structures
477
00:31:15,100 --> 00:31:17,260
but what may lie beneath them.
478
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,160
Nan Madol is a huge city
and most of it is above water
479
00:31:21,220 --> 00:31:24,200
but parts of it are underwater.
480
00:31:24,340 --> 00:31:27,180
And the islanders say
that there is a second city
481
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,200
there called Kanemweiso
482
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:32,200
and this is the city of the gods.
483
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,280
And it's in even deeper water.
484
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:37,980
You have to wonder
if there isn't some
485
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,940
kind of underwater
UFO base even today.
486
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,140
If the local legends are true,
487
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:51,080
could Nan Madol really be the
remnants of an ancient alien base?
488
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,100
One that exists
not only above ground,
489
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,300
but also extends down into the sea?
490
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:03,180
And might this explain
why the natives of Pohnpei
491
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,100
have left this part
of the island uninhabited
492
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,080
for nearly 400 years?
493
00:32:09,260 --> 00:32:12,880
There are those who believe
the answers can be found
494
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,260
by examining islands
that have suddenly
495
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,640
and mysteriously vanished.
496
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,260
The Pacific Ocean.
497
00:32:25,940 --> 00:32:28,200
October 2012.
498
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:33,940
Scientists aboard a research ship
Between Australia and New Caledonia
499
00:32:34,020 --> 00:32:37,240
set a course for 19
degrees south latitude
500
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,800
and 160 degrees east longitude -
501
00:32:40,940 --> 00:32:43,200
the location of Sandy Island.
502
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,240
But when they arrive they
make a shocking discovery -
503
00:32:49,940 --> 00:32:52,160
the island is not there.
504
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:01,940
Digital scientific databases
have shown Sandy Island
505
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,220
to be 15 miles long
and 3 miles wide -
506
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,240
approximately the size of Manhattan.
507
00:33:09,940 --> 00:33:14,820
Small islands sometimes disappear
due to rising ocean levels,
508
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:19,900
but the researchers find
no evidence of a sunken landmass -
509
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,880
just ocean waters 4600 feet deep.
510
00:33:25,820 --> 00:33:28,260
Sandy Island is an
island of great mystery.
511
00:33:28,820 --> 00:33:30,820
It literally disappeared.
512
00:33:30,980 --> 00:33:32,940
According to early
eyewitness accounts,
513
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,940
and including those by Captain Cook
514
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,860
in the 1700's this
island clearly existed.
515
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,220
And it makes you wonder
how can an island just disappear?
516
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,060
Was it there to begin with?
517
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:45,100
Absolutely it was.
518
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,020
There's eyewitness accounts of it.
519
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,900
Captain James Cook
520
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:55,260
was the first to establish
Sandy Island on a map back in 1774.
521
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,880
And, in fact,
the island still appeared
522
00:33:58,940 --> 00:34:03,120
even on modern satellite
maps up until 2013,
523
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,940
when it was finally removed based
524
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,800
on the findings of
the University of Sydney.
525
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,860
But how could an island
that has appeared on maps
526
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,080
for over 230 years
527
00:34:17,900 --> 00:34:19,200
suddenly disappear,
528
00:34:23,980 --> 00:34:25,800
There are a number of accounts,
529
00:34:26,020 --> 00:34:30,960
within folklore and
legend of mythical islands.
530
00:34:31,220 --> 00:34:33,840
For instance, the Antilles,
531
00:34:33,900 --> 00:34:37,080
and others which
appeared on ancient maps.
532
00:34:37,140 --> 00:34:39,840
And yet which don't exist today.
533
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,200
So did they once exist?
534
00:34:43,260 --> 00:34:46,120
Do they exist only at certain times?
535
00:34:46,820 --> 00:34:48,800
We could be dealing with a phenomena
536
00:34:48,860 --> 00:34:51,080
whereby these islands
537
00:34:51,180 --> 00:34:54,120
disappear at certain
times and then reappear.
538
00:34:55,260 --> 00:34:58,040
Although,
is that something that's natural?
539
00:34:58,100 --> 00:35:01,920
Is this something to do with
geology or is this something to do
540
00:35:01,980 --> 00:35:03,980
with something more supernatural?
541
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,160
This is obviously a mystery
which remains to be solved.
542
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,920
When the University of Sydney
findings were first revealed,
543
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,040
many scientists insisted
that the researchers
544
00:35:18,100 --> 00:35:20,160
must have been looking
in the wrong place -
545
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,240
pointing to the fact that
satellites had recorded temperatures
546
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,960
in this location consistent
with the presence of land.
547
00:35:31,100 --> 00:35:34,140
Scientists would later
claim that this anomaly
548
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,820
was due to errors in the data sets.
549
00:35:37,900 --> 00:35:41,160
But how could the temperature data,
the satellite images,
550
00:35:41,260 --> 00:35:46,240
and numerous other maps dating back
to the 18th century all be in error?
551
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,980
It's possible that these
islands actually do exist;
552
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:54,860
but, they are somehow being cloaked
553
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:56,920
by whoever might
be using the islands.
554
00:35:58,000 --> 00:35:59,880
For instance,
extraterrestrial visitors
555
00:35:59,940 --> 00:36:02,960
could very easily create
a light bending type of device,
556
00:36:03,060 --> 00:36:04,840
which could make
it appear that an island
557
00:36:04,900 --> 00:36:07,080
that was once there
is no longer there.
558
00:36:08,100 --> 00:36:11,280
There are other stories
of islands that appear
559
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,000
and disappear and that sometimes
there's a mist around them.
560
00:36:15,140 --> 00:36:18,860
There are stories like
this around the Samoan Islands.
561
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:25,120
So you have to wonder
562
00:36:25,180 --> 00:36:29,240
if extraterrestrials have
some kind of super technology
563
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,120
that allows them to cloak islands
564
00:36:32,180 --> 00:36:34,920
and make them appear and disappear.
565
00:36:34,980 --> 00:36:38,200
It boggles the mind that
such a technology would exist
566
00:36:38,820 --> 00:36:40,900
and yet it appears to be so.
567
00:36:43,140 --> 00:36:48,060
Could extraterrestrials really be
using advanced cloaking technology
568
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,180
to hide Sandy Island?
569
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,260
Some ancient astronaut theorists
believe there may be an even more
570
00:36:56,820 --> 00:37:01,160
incredible explanation behind
the disappearance of Sandy Island.
571
00:37:04,140 --> 00:37:07,220
Things like Sandy Island,
that somehow was located
572
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,100
and then when they went
to go look for it, it was gone.
573
00:37:11,020 --> 00:37:13,040
It's very possible
that these aren't islands
574
00:37:13,100 --> 00:37:16,960
but are some technological
device coming up to the surface.
575
00:37:17,020 --> 00:37:19,280
Or landing for a little
while and going away.
576
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:26,120
In ancient Greek mythology we
have these stories of the Asteria,
577
00:37:26,180 --> 00:37:30,180
of the falling stars
that would fall into the water
578
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:33,160
but they wouldn't sink.
579
00:37:33,220 --> 00:37:36,920
They could, in fact,
then travel from place to place.
580
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,280
Floating islands so to speak.
581
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,240
So what if, in this particular case,
582
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,900
we have a similar story?
583
00:37:47,180 --> 00:37:50,020
Is that really what is happening?
584
00:37:53,100 --> 00:37:57,060
Is it possible that these
phantom islands that appear
585
00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:01,160
and disappear are really
elaborate alien outposts?
586
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:07,160
And could the extraterrestrials that
use them still be here on Earth,
587
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,920
waiting to be discovered?
588
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,060
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,
589
00:38:13,820 --> 00:38:16,920
and suggest that further
evidence can be found
590
00:38:16,980 --> 00:38:21,060
by examining another island
that mysteriously disappeared.
591
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:26,960
An island that was said
to be home to otherworldly beings.
592
00:38:33,100 --> 00:38:35,000
The North Atlantic Ocean.
593
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,140
200 miles west of Ireland
594
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,920
lie open waters expanding
as far as the eye can see.
595
00:38:46,940 --> 00:38:50,180
But according to 14th century
Mediterranean mapmakers,
596
00:38:50,740 --> 00:38:55,880
this exact spot marks the location
of an island known as Hy-Brasil.
597
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,080
For more than 600 years,
598
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:03,200
sailors across the
world have searched
599
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:05,760
for this so-called phantom island
600
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:09,140
believed to contain
an Eden-like paradise.
601
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,920
Lore has it that the
island couldn't be seen except
602
00:39:17,980 --> 00:39:19,920
once every seven years,
603
00:39:19,980 --> 00:39:22,820
when it could be
seen but not reached.
604
00:39:24,020 --> 00:39:27,940
Hy-Brasil allegedly appeared
and disappeared behind the mists.
605
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:30,940
It could never
definitively be found.
606
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,880
Although, the,
it's putative location is marked
607
00:39:34,940 --> 00:39:37,160
on some of these early maps.
608
00:39:39,220 --> 00:39:41,220
Hy-Brasil was first mapped
609
00:39:41,780 --> 00:39:43,940
by the Italian-Majorcan cartographer
610
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,980
Angelino de Dalorto in 1325,
611
00:39:48,140 --> 00:39:52,140
who described the island as being "a
strikingly round form....
612
00:39:53,860 --> 00:39:56,920
Over a century later in 1497,
613
00:39:57,060 --> 00:39:59,140
Italian explorer John Cabot
614
00:39:59,820 --> 00:40:02,060
also reported reaching Hy-Brasil,
615
00:40:03,820 --> 00:40:07,760
and in 1674,
Captain John Nisbet of Ireland
616
00:40:07,940 --> 00:40:11,100
reportedly brought back
silver and gold from the island,
617
00:40:11,220 --> 00:40:15,760
that he claimed to have received
from an old, mysterious man.
618
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:22,060
Strangely, he and his men also
said that Hy-Brasil was inhabited
619
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,920
by what they called
"giant black rabbits....
620
00:40:26,060 --> 00:40:29,180
Other explorers of the
time returned from the island
621
00:40:29,220 --> 00:40:31,840
with similarly bizarre stories,
622
00:40:31,940 --> 00:40:34,940
and accounts of
beautiful glowing people.
623
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:42,180
Hy-Brasil is imagined
in Irish lore to be the place
624
00:40:42,220 --> 00:40:44,780
that the Irish gods came from.
625
00:40:44,980 --> 00:40:48,800
On the island of Hy-Brasil,
the gods had a luxurious life.
626
00:40:48,860 --> 00:40:51,900
They were able to develop
an advanced civilization.
627
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:57,960
In 1684, one of the first Irish
historians, Roderick O'Flaherty,
628
00:40:58,020 --> 00:41:00,220
wrote about Hy-Brasil in his book
629
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,160
"A Chorographical Description
of West Or H-Iar Connacht."
630
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,760
In it, he refers to
the island as "enchanted"
631
00:41:08,820 --> 00:41:10,820
and writes that it is a "land
632
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,980
kept hidden by the
special ordinance of God."
633
00:41:15,140 --> 00:41:18,100
Like a lot of other mythologies,
such as Atlantis,
634
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:23,820
Hy-Brasil was thought to
be the source of civilization.
635
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:29,020
Especially in Ireland and England
and other areas such as that.
636
00:41:29,740 --> 00:41:31,760
It's thought that Hy-Brasil
637
00:41:31,820 --> 00:41:34,040
still exists under the sea and that,
638
00:41:34,100 --> 00:41:38,020
periodically, when the conditions
are right, it'll surface.
639
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,800
According to legend,
the mysterious land
640
00:41:48,860 --> 00:41:53,920
was last seen in 1872 by
author TJ Westropp and his crew,
641
00:41:55,060 --> 00:41:58,840
who saw the island
appear and then vanish.
642
00:42:01,940 --> 00:42:04,080
If Hy-Brasil is an actual land,
643
00:42:04,140 --> 00:42:07,060
very possibly it could
be that at one time
644
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:11,080
on planet Earth there
was a superior technology.
645
00:42:11,140 --> 00:42:14,960
A civilization that had progress
646
00:42:15,020 --> 00:42:17,840
that far surpassed
even our own today.
647
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,900
And these people
originated from the stars.
648
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:27,800
They are the people that
the human race descended from.
649
00:42:27,860 --> 00:42:30,760
And, locations such as Hy-Brasil
650
00:42:30,820 --> 00:42:32,980
is the homeland of these creatures.
651
00:42:36,140 --> 00:42:37,160
Is it possible
652
00:42:37,220 --> 00:42:41,200
that the mythical island
of Hy-Brasil not only exists,
653
00:42:41,860 --> 00:42:45,020
but is actually
a hi-tech alien base?
654
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:51,120
And if so, might there be
others located all over the world?
655
00:42:52,860 --> 00:42:55,880
You find so many accounts
of beings coming and going
656
00:42:55,940 --> 00:42:57,980
from the stars at these locations.
657
00:42:58,040 --> 00:42:59,940
You find mysterious disappearances.
658
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:03,940
You find other supernatural events
taking place at these islands.
659
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:07,060
And it makes you wonder
if they're in fact being used
660
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:11,080
by advanced extraterrestrial
races as portals,
661
00:43:11,140 --> 00:43:13,920
as gateways,
even as stop over places,
662
00:43:13,980 --> 00:43:16,820
maybe even refueling
stations in a way,
663
00:43:16,900 --> 00:43:19,820
as places that are known
throughout the cosmos.
664
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,080
Might aliens have been
visiting these remote,
665
00:43:28,740 --> 00:43:32,800
relatively uninhabited
locations for thousands of years,
666
00:43:34,140 --> 00:43:37,000
using them as secret hideouts,
667
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:41,980
landing spots or energetic
refueling stations?
668
00:43:43,900 --> 00:43:46,220
Could there be
extraterrestrial bases
669
00:43:46,780 --> 00:43:49,820
on hidden islands even now?
670
00:43:50,140 --> 00:43:52,000
And when the truth behind
671
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,860
these forbidden islands is revealed,
672
00:43:55,180 --> 00:43:58,200
will we finally, come face-to-face
673
00:43:58,820 --> 00:44:01,080
with our celestial ancestors?
