1
00:00:00,542 --> 00:00:02,742
A mathematical message
encoded within a megalithic tomb.

2
00:00:05,958 --> 00:00:08,583
A mysterious ancient symbol

3
00:00:08,792 --> 00:00:12,333
with connections to the cosmos.

4
00:00:12,500 --> 00:00:14,250
And complex patterns

5
00:00:14,417 --> 00:00:17,250
that appear in fields
around the world.

6
00:00:18,292 --> 00:00:21,625
Over the years, Ancient
Aliens has documented

7
00:00:21,792 --> 00:00:24,000
evidence of
otherworldly visitation

8
00:00:24,167 --> 00:00:28,167
believed to be concealed in
ancient codes and symbols.

9
00:00:29,208 --> 00:00:33,083
Now we're counting down
the ten most intriguing

10
00:00:33,250 --> 00:00:36,333
and mysterious
codes we've examined.

11
00:00:36,500 --> 00:00:39,083
Codes that just
might unlock the truth

12
00:00:39,250 --> 00:00:42,625
about our extraterrestrial past.

13
00:00:51,167 --> 00:00:52,833
Throughout the ancient world,

14
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,292
we can find mysterious
structures, carvings,

15
00:00:56,500 --> 00:00:59,125
and symbols that
defy explanation.

16
00:00:59,250 --> 00:01:01,958
For ancient astronaut
theorists like me,

17
00:01:02,083 --> 00:01:04,833
these are signs that
our ancestors were

18
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,208
influenced by
extraterrestrial visitors,

19
00:01:07,375 --> 00:01:09,292
and they represent a code

20
00:01:09,417 --> 00:01:12,833
left for future
generations to decipher.

21
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,458
A prime example are
the giant monoliths

22
00:01:16,542 --> 00:01:18,708
that were erected
all over the Earth

23
00:01:18,875 --> 00:01:21,417
thousands of years
ago for reasons

24
00:01:21,542 --> 00:01:24,792
that archaeologists
still do not understand.

25
00:01:24,958 --> 00:01:30,500
At number ten on our countdown
of the top ten alien codes:

26
00:01:30,708 --> 00:01:32,458
the Standing Stones.

27
00:01:35,833 --> 00:01:37,375
Throughout the planet,

28
00:01:37,542 --> 00:01:42,042
scattered across Europe,
Asia, Africa and the Americas,

29
00:01:42,208 --> 00:01:45,667
are more than 50,000
ancient standing stones.

30
00:01:45,833 --> 00:01:48,208
They are enormous monoliths

31
00:01:48,417 --> 00:01:50,917
that have been placed
vertically into the ground.

32
00:01:51,083 --> 00:01:54,500
Most date back more
than 5,000 years,

33
00:01:54,625 --> 00:01:58,167
and the largest
weigh over 300 tons...

34
00:01:58,333 --> 00:02:01,875
More than double the
weight of the Statue of Liberty.

35
00:02:02,083 --> 00:02:05,167
When we look
at these standing stones in the earth,

36
00:02:05,375 --> 00:02:07,917
they are particularly mysterious

37
00:02:08,042 --> 00:02:10,833
and they bring
something out in us,

38
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,208
an awe, a sense of mystery.

39
00:02:13,375 --> 00:02:15,917
Why are these stones here?

40
00:02:16,083 --> 00:02:18,875
It must have some purpose
but we don't know what it is.

41
00:02:20,500 --> 00:02:24,000
On the northwest
coast of France lies the most famous

42
00:02:24,208 --> 00:02:27,375
and mysterious collection
of ancient standing stones

43
00:02:27,542 --> 00:02:29,708
found anywhere in the world.

44
00:02:30,750 --> 00:02:34,000
Stretching across two
miles of rolling countryside,

45
00:02:34,208 --> 00:02:36,708
the more than
3,000 giant monoliths

46
00:02:36,833 --> 00:02:40,083
are known as the Carnac stones.

47
00:02:40,250 --> 00:02:42,167
French archeologists

48
00:02:42,333 --> 00:02:45,500
have been able to give a
date to these standing stones,

49
00:02:45,625 --> 00:02:47,125
and it's 5000 B.C.

50
00:02:47,292 --> 00:02:48,667
So they're saying

51
00:02:48,875 --> 00:02:52,792
that these stones were
erected 7,000 years ago,

52
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,833
but they don't know
who erected them.

53
00:02:56,042 --> 00:02:57,833
They don't know why
they were erected.

54
00:02:58,042 --> 00:02:59,458
They don't know how

55
00:02:59,667 --> 00:03:02,542
they moved all these
stones and erected them.

56
00:03:04,833 --> 00:03:06,958
Some mainstream scholars suggest

57
00:03:07,083 --> 00:03:09,167
that the stones are
simply grave markers,

58
00:03:09,375 --> 00:03:10,917
while others theorize

59
00:03:11,042 --> 00:03:13,417
that they track
astronomical events

60
00:03:13,583 --> 00:03:16,292
like the solstice and equinox.

61
00:03:16,417 --> 00:03:19,333
But ancient astronaut
theorists propose

62
00:03:19,542 --> 00:03:21,625
the precise placement
of the Carnac Stones

63
00:03:21,792 --> 00:03:25,667
represent geometric
alignments far more sophisticated

64
00:03:25,833 --> 00:03:28,667
than they might
appear at first glance.

65
00:03:30,083 --> 00:03:34,333
These 3,000 stones
have been arranged

66
00:03:34,500 --> 00:03:37,333
in very specific arrangements.

67
00:03:37,542 --> 00:03:40,500
In fact, one of the
arrangements we have

68
00:03:40,708 --> 00:03:44,125
is a representation of
the Pythagorean theorem,

69
00:03:44,292 --> 00:03:47,500
which is "A squared plus B
squared equals C squared."

70
00:03:47,667 --> 00:03:51,042
How do we have that
mathematical message

71
00:03:51,208 --> 00:03:54,500
in an archeological
site that's at least

72
00:03:54,667 --> 00:03:57,250
7,000 years old?

73
00:03:57,417 --> 00:04:00,125
The constructions
in Carnac is thousands of years

74
00:04:00,333 --> 00:04:02,750
older than Pythagoras,
the Greek mathematician.

75
00:04:02,917 --> 00:04:06,333
So somebody must have
teached our ancestors

76
00:04:06,500 --> 00:04:09,167
to put these stones
in a certain line,

77
00:04:09,333 --> 00:04:10,417
in geometrical forms.

78
00:04:10,583 --> 00:04:13,292
Now the question is simply, why?

79
00:04:15,417 --> 00:04:18,667
Without a doubt one of the
most baffling places on Earth

80
00:04:18,875 --> 00:04:20,417
can be found in Peru.

81
00:04:20,625 --> 00:04:22,500
It's a mysterious formation

82
00:04:22,708 --> 00:04:25,792
that stretches for miles
through the rugged desert.

83
00:04:25,958 --> 00:04:29,333
And while its purpose
is completely unknown,

84
00:04:29,542 --> 00:04:31,333
some believe it was used

85
00:04:31,542 --> 00:04:34,708
to communicate with
otherworldly beings.

86
00:04:35,875 --> 00:04:39,292
Number nine on our
list: the Band of Holes.

87
00:04:43,250 --> 00:04:44,667
Pisco, Peru.

88
00:04:45,667 --> 00:04:49,750
Here, stretching across
the Cajamarquilla Plain,

89
00:04:49,917 --> 00:04:53,917
thousands of ancient holes have
been dug into a mountain range.

90
00:04:54,917 --> 00:04:58,333
The holes measure
six to seven feet in depth

91
00:04:58,417 --> 00:05:02,500
and are evenly spaced
about three feet apart.

92
00:05:03,542 --> 00:05:05,500
They are arranged
in a precise line

93
00:05:05,708 --> 00:05:09,583
that runs north and
south for almost two miles.

94
00:05:10,792 --> 00:05:13,500
In the mountains of Peru we have

95
00:05:13,708 --> 00:05:16,958
what's commonly referred
to as the Band of Holes.

96
00:05:18,125 --> 00:05:19,583
It is one of the coolest places

97
00:05:19,708 --> 00:05:22,750
in relation to the ancient
astronaut theory because

98
00:05:22,917 --> 00:05:25,833
who in their right
mind would go ahead

99
00:05:26,042 --> 00:05:27,917
and dig all these holes?

100
00:05:28,125 --> 00:05:32,542
They're a incredible mystery,
a very long-lived mystery.

101
00:05:32,708 --> 00:05:34,500
Some people think it looks like

102
00:05:34,708 --> 00:05:38,000
some kind of machine was
running over the territory.

103
00:05:38,167 --> 00:05:39,583
Some people think it was

104
00:05:39,708 --> 00:05:42,750
some kind of systematic
mining operation.

105
00:05:42,917 --> 00:05:45,500
Some people say it
was just pot-hunters,

106
00:05:45,708 --> 00:05:48,417
you know, looting,
looking for burials.

107
00:05:48,625 --> 00:05:51,000
None of the explanations
make good sense.

108
00:05:54,833 --> 00:05:59,208
While the Band of
Holes continues to defy explanation,

109
00:05:59,375 --> 00:06:01,667
some ancient astronaut
theorists believe

110
00:06:01,792 --> 00:06:03,708
it might convey a
type of message

111
00:06:03,875 --> 00:06:06,625
left behind by
extraterrestrials.

112
00:06:07,750 --> 00:06:10,458
Some
thousands of years in the past,

113
00:06:10,625 --> 00:06:13,083
the extraterrestrials
who visited our planet

114
00:06:13,250 --> 00:06:15,333
left a proof behind.

115
00:06:15,458 --> 00:06:17,833
They knew that in the far future

116
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,625
the humans will
see these patterns.

117
00:06:20,833 --> 00:06:23,542
They will realize that
this is high geometry.

118
00:06:23,750 --> 00:06:25,833
And sooner or later
the questions comes up,

119
00:06:25,958 --> 00:06:28,542
have we maybe been visited
by beings from outer space?

120
00:06:29,750 --> 00:06:34,750
Is it some kind
of message for us from the past

121
00:06:34,917 --> 00:06:38,417
that we're to decode when
we have reached a higher state

122
00:06:38,625 --> 00:06:43,042
of civilization and knowledge
that we can figure all this out?

123
00:06:43,250 --> 00:06:47,042
It would seem that we are
only just now reaching a point

124
00:06:47,208 --> 00:06:49,583
of knowledge and technology

125
00:06:49,708 --> 00:06:52,375
that we can
understand these codes.

126
00:06:52,542 --> 00:06:56,500
And find the hidden
meaning that's there.

127
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,500
The ancient astronaut
theory suggests

128
00:07:00,667 --> 00:07:04,667
that extraterrestrials who
came to Earth in the distant past

129
00:07:04,875 --> 00:07:08,042
left behind signs
that they were here.

130
00:07:08,208 --> 00:07:12,875
To me, some compelling examples
are massive shapes and figures

131
00:07:13,042 --> 00:07:16,125
that are carved into the
landscape across the globe

132
00:07:16,250 --> 00:07:19,167
and can only be
seen from the sky.

133
00:07:19,375 --> 00:07:21,458
At number eight on our countdown

134
00:07:21,625 --> 00:07:26,083
of the top ten alien
codes: geoglyphs.

135
00:07:29,250 --> 00:07:30,625
Nazca, Peru.

136
00:07:31,542 --> 00:07:33,625
High in this arid plateau,

137
00:07:33,792 --> 00:07:36,708
there is a series of
precise lines and artworks

138
00:07:36,875 --> 00:07:40,500
carved into the desert floor
that have mystified people

139
00:07:40,708 --> 00:07:43,917
since their modern
discovery in the 1920s.

140
00:07:44,083 --> 00:07:47,667
Curiously, all of them
were made on a scale

141
00:07:47,792 --> 00:07:49,958
to be seen from high above.

142
00:07:51,042 --> 00:07:52,667
They are called geoglyphs.

143
00:07:53,542 --> 00:07:55,167
A geoglyph is just basically

144
00:07:55,333 --> 00:07:56,625
a drawing on the landscape.

145
00:07:56,750 --> 00:07:58,708
Usually quite large scale.

146
00:07:59,708 --> 00:08:02,333
Most geoglyphs are in
deserts and in shapes.

147
00:08:02,542 --> 00:08:05,917
Geometric shapes,
animal shapes or whatever.

148
00:08:06,083 --> 00:08:09,833
Most geoglyphs really only
make sense from above.

149
00:08:11,833 --> 00:08:13,792
For years,
archeologists believed

150
00:08:13,958 --> 00:08:17,583
the Nazca Lines were
an isolated phenomenon.

151
00:08:17,750 --> 00:08:21,000
But now, with the
benefit satellite imagery,

152
00:08:21,208 --> 00:08:24,000
thousands of ancient
geoglyphs are being found

153
00:08:24,167 --> 00:08:26,875
all over the world...

154
00:08:27,042 --> 00:08:29,208
In Kazakhstan,

155
00:08:29,333 --> 00:08:32,292
in the southwestern
United States,

156
00:08:32,458 --> 00:08:35,125
in the Atacama Desert of Chile,

157
00:08:35,250 --> 00:08:36,375
and in Bolivia,

158
00:08:36,583 --> 00:08:37,917
just to name a few.

159
00:08:39,958 --> 00:08:41,503
There are
many groups around the world

160
00:08:41,583 --> 00:08:43,042
that have been
creating geoglyphs

161
00:08:43,208 --> 00:08:44,750
for thousands of years.

162
00:08:44,875 --> 00:08:46,708
And the thing is that
these glyphs can only

163
00:08:46,875 --> 00:08:48,667
be seen from the sky.

164
00:08:48,833 --> 00:08:50,625
That tells us that
these messages

165
00:08:50,708 --> 00:08:52,000
have to be for beings

166
00:08:52,208 --> 00:08:55,625
that are in the sky...
Extraterrestrials.

167
00:08:56,708 --> 00:08:58,000
Is it possible

168
00:08:58,167 --> 00:09:00,708
that these ancient
geoglyphs were created

169
00:09:00,917 --> 00:09:03,292
for an extraterrestrial purpose?

170
00:09:04,458 --> 00:09:06,708
Ancient astronaut
theorists say yes,

171
00:09:06,917 --> 00:09:10,667
and suggest further clues
can be found by examining

172
00:09:10,833 --> 00:09:14,958
one of the most extraordinary
geoglyphs ever discovered.

173
00:09:15,125 --> 00:09:17,485
One of the most interesting
geoglyphs that you have at Nazca

174
00:09:17,667 --> 00:09:19,583
is the sun-star-cross geoglyph,

175
00:09:19,750 --> 00:09:23,917
which is really a very
complicated, huge mandala

176
00:09:24,042 --> 00:09:27,083
of interconnected
stars and triangles.

177
00:09:27,250 --> 00:09:29,458
And it's something we
see all over the world,

178
00:09:29,625 --> 00:09:32,958
and in Tibet and
India as mandalas.

179
00:09:33,125 --> 00:09:37,833
So things like this that are
so geometrically complicated

180
00:09:38,042 --> 00:09:40,792
and are found all
over the world indicates

181
00:09:40,958 --> 00:09:45,167
that there was some kind of
worldwide symbolic language

182
00:09:45,333 --> 00:09:49,333
that was brought here
by a higher intelligence.

183
00:09:57,083 --> 00:10:00,208
One thing I look for
are structures or shapes

184
00:10:00,375 --> 00:10:01,500
that are repeated

185
00:10:01,708 --> 00:10:03,875
at ancient sites
around the world.

186
00:10:04,042 --> 00:10:07,500
One of the most intriguing
is a mysterious symbol

187
00:10:07,708 --> 00:10:10,167
that just might
unlock the secret

188
00:10:10,375 --> 00:10:12,542
of our extraterrestrial past.

189
00:10:12,708 --> 00:10:17,292
Number seven on our
countdown: the keyhole shape.

190
00:10:20,875 --> 00:10:22,500
Khaybar, Saudi Arabia,

191
00:10:22,708 --> 00:10:25,833
May 2017.

192
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,750
An archaeological team
conducting an aerial survey

193
00:10:29,958 --> 00:10:31,917
of the Saudi Arabian desert

194
00:10:32,083 --> 00:10:34,500
makes an
extraordinary discovery.

195
00:10:34,708 --> 00:10:38,250
They find a series
of 19 stone formations

196
00:10:38,375 --> 00:10:40,625
in the shape of keyholes.

197
00:10:40,833 --> 00:10:43,003
They're
thought to be thousands of years old,

198
00:10:43,083 --> 00:10:44,500
but no one knows who built them,

199
00:10:44,708 --> 00:10:46,208
no one knows why
they were there,

200
00:10:46,375 --> 00:10:51,708
but they have this sacred symbol
of the keyhole as the design.

201
00:10:52,875 --> 00:10:54,500
So the keyhole
shape is a combination

202
00:10:54,667 --> 00:10:57,833
of the triangle and the circle.

203
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,875
And the circle is
often a representation

204
00:11:01,042 --> 00:11:03,417
of the Sun and the Moon
and other heavenly objects,

205
00:11:03,583 --> 00:11:06,208
whereas the triangle shape
is really the pyramid shape,

206
00:11:06,375 --> 00:11:09,667
and that is a
representation of the Earth.

207
00:11:09,833 --> 00:11:13,417
So it really could
be a representation

208
00:11:13,542 --> 00:11:15,667
linking heaven and Earth.

209
00:11:16,833 --> 00:11:17,875
Curiously,

210
00:11:18,042 --> 00:11:20,000
the keyhole symbol can be found

211
00:11:20,167 --> 00:11:23,000
at ancient sites
all over the world.

212
00:11:23,208 --> 00:11:27,708
But perhaps the most impressive
example can be found in Japan,

213
00:11:27,875 --> 00:11:31,958
at a megalithic tomb
called Daisen Kofun.

214
00:11:33,208 --> 00:11:37,750
It rises up 35 feet above
the surrounding area

215
00:11:37,875 --> 00:11:41,667
and is 1,600 feet long

216
00:11:41,792 --> 00:11:43,792
and 980 feet wide,

217
00:11:43,917 --> 00:11:46,167
and it's encircled
by three moats,

218
00:11:46,375 --> 00:11:47,792
making the entire edifice

219
00:11:47,917 --> 00:11:52,167
cover a space of five
million square feet.

220
00:11:53,333 --> 00:11:54,750
The Daisen Kofun

221
00:11:54,917 --> 00:11:58,667
is merely the largest of
more than 160,000 kofuns

222
00:11:58,875 --> 00:12:01,167
that dot Japan.

223
00:12:01,292 --> 00:12:03,125
There are hundreds
of these tombs,

224
00:12:03,292 --> 00:12:07,167
built between around
300 AD to around 600 AD.

225
00:12:07,250 --> 00:12:08,875
So what were these?

226
00:12:09,042 --> 00:12:12,167
Were these really just tombs
built for emperors and kings,

227
00:12:12,333 --> 00:12:14,333
or were they something
else altogether?

228
00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:16,500
The keyhole shape

229
00:12:16,667 --> 00:12:19,000
can only be seen from the air.

230
00:12:19,167 --> 00:12:21,875
And we're told that the ancient
Japanese did not have a means

231
00:12:22,042 --> 00:12:25,333
of getting into the sky
to appreciate this shape.

232
00:12:25,500 --> 00:12:29,500
So there's a great mystery here
about why the keyhole shape?

233
00:12:29,667 --> 00:12:32,292
Some researchers suggest

234
00:12:32,375 --> 00:12:35,208
that the keyhole
shape is an alien code

235
00:12:35,375 --> 00:12:39,167
and can be traced back
to the first kofun ever built.

236
00:12:40,208 --> 00:12:42,292
The first of these
tombs is associated

237
00:12:42,417 --> 00:12:46,000
with the first historical
Japanese emperor,

238
00:12:46,208 --> 00:12:48,000
Emperor Sujin,

239
00:12:48,208 --> 00:12:52,208
in whose record in the book
of ancient mythology, the Kojiki,

240
00:12:52,375 --> 00:12:57,125
a keyhole of a door actually
also plays an important part.

241
00:12:57,292 --> 00:13:00,125
According
to the story in the Kojiki,

242
00:13:00,292 --> 00:13:04,208
a young woman becomes
impregnated by a powerful god

243
00:13:04,375 --> 00:13:06,667
who comes to her
room through a keyhole,

244
00:13:06,833 --> 00:13:11,000
then gives birth to
semidivine children.

245
00:13:11,208 --> 00:13:17,000
So, you've got to wonder if
these keyhole-shaped kofun

246
00:13:17,167 --> 00:13:18,887
aren't something that
were actually designed

247
00:13:19,042 --> 00:13:21,500
by extraterrestrials.

248
00:13:21,667 --> 00:13:23,833
There's something
about that shape.

249
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,208
It has meaning.

250
00:13:25,375 --> 00:13:28,750
Are these sites
signaling somebody

251
00:13:28,917 --> 00:13:31,125
who is apparently in the sky?

252
00:13:33,375 --> 00:13:36,667
I find it fascinating
that, across the globe,

253
00:13:36,792 --> 00:13:39,500
megalithic structures
are covered

254
00:13:39,625 --> 00:13:42,000
with mysterious
lines and swirls.

255
00:13:42,125 --> 00:13:44,458
Are these merely decoration?

256
00:13:44,625 --> 00:13:47,000
Or do they have a
deeper meaning?

257
00:13:47,208 --> 00:13:51,958
At number six on our
list: the spiral code.

258
00:13:55,250 --> 00:13:57,750
County Meath, Ireland.

259
00:13:57,917 --> 00:14:01,750
Here stands Ireland's
most famous megalithic site:

260
00:14:01,958 --> 00:14:03,375
Newgrange.

261
00:14:04,708 --> 00:14:06,167
The ancient tomb was built

262
00:14:06,292 --> 00:14:09,458
with over 200,000
tons of stone blocks,

263
00:14:09,667 --> 00:14:14,042
many of which are covered
in intricate spiral patterns.

264
00:14:14,208 --> 00:14:15,920
Newgrange is one of
the most important sites

265
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,333
in all of Europe.

266
00:14:17,542 --> 00:14:19,917
Within this, we have
beautiful carvings

267
00:14:20,042 --> 00:14:23,500
on the 97 curbstones
that go around the edge,

268
00:14:23,667 --> 00:14:26,000
as well as on the
main entrance stone

269
00:14:26,167 --> 00:14:28,792
and within the chamber itself.

270
00:14:28,875 --> 00:14:32,500
Mainly spirals, and most
notably, a triple spiral

271
00:14:32,625 --> 00:14:37,667
at the back of the main chamber
within the actual site itself.

272
00:14:37,833 --> 00:14:39,833
Identical spiral patterns

273
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,875
have been found at ancient
sites across the globe.

274
00:14:45,042 --> 00:14:48,833
We see certain symbols
recurring again and again.

275
00:14:49,042 --> 00:14:55,000
These take the form of
spirals, of concentric rings,

276
00:14:55,083 --> 00:14:57,958
and they're something
that are virtually universal

277
00:14:58,125 --> 00:14:59,417
around the world.

278
00:14:59,542 --> 00:15:02,042
Many archaeologists believe

279
00:15:02,208 --> 00:15:05,833
spiral petroglyphs
symbolize the cosmos.

280
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,875
But ancient astronaut
theorists believe

281
00:15:08,042 --> 00:15:11,500
they serve a more
profound purpose.

282
00:15:11,667 --> 00:15:14,833
And as evidence, they
point to spiral carvings

283
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,667
at a 5,000-year-old
archaeological site

284
00:15:17,833 --> 00:15:20,833
off the coast of France.

285
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,458
On the island of Gavrinis,

286
00:15:23,542 --> 00:15:26,083
there is a passage tomb.

287
00:15:26,250 --> 00:15:31,208
And inside, there are
giant stones left and right

288
00:15:31,375 --> 00:15:34,875
with carvings that
look like fingerprints

289
00:15:35,042 --> 00:15:39,042
that have been carved
onto the megalithic slabs.

290
00:15:39,208 --> 00:15:40,688
When people came to Gavrinis,

291
00:15:40,792 --> 00:15:42,032
they began to make measurements

292
00:15:42,125 --> 00:15:43,875
as to how these
stones were placed.

293
00:15:44,042 --> 00:15:45,667
They began to realize
that these stones

294
00:15:45,875 --> 00:15:47,708
weren't just placed haphazardly

295
00:15:47,875 --> 00:15:50,750
in some kind of
coincidental form,

296
00:15:50,875 --> 00:15:52,583
but actually displayed

297
00:15:52,708 --> 00:15:55,500
extraordinary understanding
and knowledge of mathematics.

298
00:15:59,042 --> 00:16:01,375
Mathematicians
examining the spirals

299
00:16:01,500 --> 00:16:03,750
speculated that
their varying lengths

300
00:16:03,917 --> 00:16:06,875
could indicate that
they represent numbers.

301
00:16:07,042 --> 00:16:09,333
Based on this assumption,

302
00:16:09,500 --> 00:16:13,167
they determined which numbers
each carving might represent,

303
00:16:13,333 --> 00:16:16,917
and discovered a record
of specific information,

304
00:16:17,042 --> 00:16:20,208
like the number
of days in a year.

305
00:16:20,375 --> 00:16:23,167
But astonishingly,
these stone records

306
00:16:23,333 --> 00:16:27,500
include something
even more incredible.

307
00:16:27,708 --> 00:16:29,833
When
mathematicians went in there

308
00:16:29,917 --> 00:16:32,792
to look at this in the 1970s,

309
00:16:32,917 --> 00:16:35,917
they determined it
showed the longitude

310
00:16:36,125 --> 00:16:40,542
and latitude of Gavrinis.

311
00:16:40,708 --> 00:16:44,167
How would they know
about longitude and latitude?

312
00:16:44,333 --> 00:16:46,750
We came up with
this in modern times.

313
00:16:46,917 --> 00:16:50,208
How do we have that
mathematical message

314
00:16:50,375 --> 00:16:55,333
in a archaeological site
that's at least 5,000 years old?

315
00:16:55,542 --> 00:16:58,417
In my opinion,
the extraterrestrials

316
00:16:58,625 --> 00:17:01,500
wanted to leave behind
some type of a message,

317
00:17:01,667 --> 00:17:05,958
a type of secret code that
needed to be deciphered

318
00:17:06,083 --> 00:17:08,833
by a future generation
that would understand,

319
00:17:08,917 --> 00:17:12,417
and that generation is us.

320
00:17:17,458 --> 00:17:20,542
We're comi,

321
00:17:20,708 --> 00:17:24,125
and the next entry on our
list needs no introduction.

322
00:17:24,292 --> 00:17:26,167
They are monumental structures

323
00:17:26,375 --> 00:17:28,833
that can be found
on every continent,

324
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,833
and they were built
with such precision

325
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,458
that, from the perspective of
an ancient astronaut theorist,

326
00:17:34,583 --> 00:17:37,542
many could be of
extraterrestrial design.

327
00:17:37,708 --> 00:17:40,208
Number five on our list

328
00:17:40,375 --> 00:17:45,167
of the top ten alien
codes: pyramids.

329
00:17:47,458 --> 00:17:49,500
In every region of the world

330
00:17:49,708 --> 00:17:52,458
stand ancient monuments
that have been built

331
00:17:52,583 --> 00:17:57,708
in a sophisticated geometric
form known as pyramids.

332
00:17:57,875 --> 00:18:01,583
These structures are
separated by thousands of miles,

333
00:18:01,708 --> 00:18:04,750
but they are strikingly
similar in design.

334
00:18:04,875 --> 00:18:07,417
There is a
kind of a master blueprint

335
00:18:07,542 --> 00:18:09,333
that we see in the architecture,

336
00:18:09,458 --> 00:18:12,958
and it's not in just one or
two or three civilizations,

337
00:18:13,125 --> 00:18:15,375
it's in all the civilizations.

338
00:18:15,542 --> 00:18:17,458
China,

339
00:18:17,625 --> 00:18:18,917
India,

340
00:18:19,083 --> 00:18:21,500
South America... it's there.

341
00:18:21,667 --> 00:18:24,292
According
to the local mythologies

342
00:18:24,458 --> 00:18:27,542
of numerous
pyramid-building cultures,

343
00:18:27,708 --> 00:18:30,667
the inspiration to build
these complex structures

344
00:18:30,875 --> 00:18:32,917
came from an
otherworldly source.

345
00:18:33,042 --> 00:18:35,083
In Mesoamerica,

346
00:18:35,250 --> 00:18:37,000
we have the gods associated

347
00:18:37,167 --> 00:18:39,208
with the construction
of the pyramids.

348
00:18:39,417 --> 00:18:42,708
This reflects the
same kind of entity

349
00:18:42,875 --> 00:18:44,625
that the Mesopotamians reported,

350
00:18:44,792 --> 00:18:47,458
that the Egyptians reported

351
00:18:47,583 --> 00:18:51,333
as being the architect that
designed these structures.

352
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:55,542
Who were the teachers of
these engineering styles?

353
00:18:55,708 --> 00:19:01,083
The only conclusion there
is is that aliens had a hand

354
00:19:01,208 --> 00:19:04,625
in these creations
a long time ago.

355
00:19:04,792 --> 00:19:07,792
They're all human-made,
but with the assistance

356
00:19:07,958 --> 00:19:11,875
or the technology
provided by extraterrestrials.

357
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,833
If otherworldly
beings inspired our ancestors

358
00:19:15,917 --> 00:19:17,250
to build pyramids,

359
00:19:17,458 --> 00:19:20,208
as ancient astronaut
theorists contend,

360
00:19:20,375 --> 00:19:22,625
what was their purpose?

361
00:19:22,792 --> 00:19:24,458
Perhaps clues can be found

362
00:19:24,625 --> 00:19:26,875
in the most famous
of these structures:

363
00:19:27,042 --> 00:19:30,375
the Great Pyramid of Egypt.

364
00:19:30,500 --> 00:19:32,167
Ever since the first studies

365
00:19:32,333 --> 00:19:35,125
of the Great Pyramid in
Egypt have been made,

366
00:19:35,250 --> 00:19:37,792
researchers have been amazed

367
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,958
at the mathematical knowledge

368
00:19:40,125 --> 00:19:43,292
that is encoded into
the Great Pyramid.

369
00:19:45,375 --> 00:19:47,625
The Great Pyramid is aligned

370
00:19:47,792 --> 00:19:50,833
to within three sixtieths
of a degree of north,

371
00:19:50,958 --> 00:19:52,875
a more accurate alignment

372
00:19:53,042 --> 00:19:55,125
than any other
structure on Earth.

373
00:19:55,292 --> 00:19:57,667
And researchers have discovered

374
00:19:57,792 --> 00:20:02,583
even more profound information
encoded within its design.

375
00:20:02,708 --> 00:20:05,000
We've discovered,

376
00:20:05,167 --> 00:20:08,583
with satellite imagery,
that the pyramid,

377
00:20:08,708 --> 00:20:11,542
if you take its peak
and measure it precisely

378
00:20:11,708 --> 00:20:15,333
its location in degrees
on the planet Earth,

379
00:20:15,500 --> 00:20:19,292
the number is
equal to the number

380
00:20:19,458 --> 00:20:23,000
that is the speed of light,
out to many, many digits.

381
00:20:23,208 --> 00:20:26,833
How in the world
would an ancient culture

382
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,375
build something so precisely

383
00:20:29,542 --> 00:20:31,102
that we couldn't even
measure until now,

384
00:20:31,208 --> 00:20:32,500
when we had spacecraft?

385
00:20:32,708 --> 00:20:37,083
And, if the people
who built the pyramids

386
00:20:37,208 --> 00:20:40,792
put just in its location
the speed of light,

387
00:20:40,917 --> 00:20:45,250
what else is in the design
and placement of the pyramid?

388
00:20:47,333 --> 00:20:50,542
A key tenet in the
ancient astronaut theory

389
00:20:50,708 --> 00:20:55,417
is that extraterrestrials shared
knowledge with our ancestors.

390
00:20:55,542 --> 00:20:57,833
Compelling evidence
of this can be found

391
00:20:58,042 --> 00:21:00,208
in an ancient Chinese text

392
00:21:00,375 --> 00:21:03,417
that describes an
extraterrestrial language,

393
00:21:03,583 --> 00:21:06,750
one that is actually
still used to this day.

394
00:21:06,875 --> 00:21:11,708
Number four on our
countdown: binary code.

395
00:21:14,917 --> 00:21:18,000
Today, the most
prolific language in the world

396
00:21:18,167 --> 00:21:20,917
consists of just two characters:

397
00:21:21,042 --> 00:21:23,500
zero and one.

398
00:21:23,625 --> 00:21:25,583
It's a language
that is understood

399
00:21:25,750 --> 00:21:30,125
in every culture across
the globe: binary code.

400
00:21:30,333 --> 00:21:32,333
People know that
the digital revolution

401
00:21:32,500 --> 00:21:34,917
is based on zeros and
ones, zeros and ones.

402
00:21:35,125 --> 00:21:38,083
Computer tape consists of
one, one, one, zero, zero, zero.

403
00:21:38,208 --> 00:21:39,625
That's called "binary."

404
00:21:40,708 --> 00:21:42,667
Computers use zeroes and ones

405
00:21:42,833 --> 00:21:45,750
because zeroes and ones
correspond to "off" and "on,"

406
00:21:45,917 --> 00:21:49,042
which is the circuitry
of a computer.

407
00:21:51,500 --> 00:21:54,625
A German
mathematician, Gottfried Leibniz,

408
00:21:54,792 --> 00:21:59,625
is credited with defining
binary code in the 17th century.

409
00:21:59,750 --> 00:22:02,333
He designed a
mechanical calculator

410
00:22:02,542 --> 00:22:05,542
that expressed numbers
as zeroes and ones.

411
00:22:05,708 --> 00:22:10,208
In turn, Leibniz
credited his inspiration

412
00:22:10,417 --> 00:22:13,708
to the 5,000-year-old
Chinese text I Ching,

413
00:22:13,875 --> 00:22:15,833
an ancient oracle code

414
00:22:16,042 --> 00:22:19,875
used to communicate
with otherworldly beings.

415
00:22:20,083 --> 00:22:24,042
The I Ching is basically
composed of 64 hexagrams,

416
00:22:24,208 --> 00:22:26,458
which are combinations of

417
00:22:26,625 --> 00:22:28,958
broken and unbroken lines,

418
00:22:29,125 --> 00:22:31,000
binary combinations.

419
00:22:31,167 --> 00:22:33,458
It was heavily
used in divination.

420
00:22:33,625 --> 00:22:35,583
You can use it
and people still do,

421
00:22:35,792 --> 00:22:39,000
very easily, you can flip a
coin, for example, six times,

422
00:22:39,208 --> 00:22:43,500
and every time that it lands
on heads, you draw a full line.

423
00:22:43,667 --> 00:22:45,000
Every time that
it lands on tails,

424
00:22:45,208 --> 00:22:46,667
you draw a broken line.

425
00:22:46,833 --> 00:22:48,292
And then when you
have six of these,

426
00:22:48,458 --> 00:22:51,000
you come up with your hexagram.

427
00:22:51,167 --> 00:22:55,292
And each of these hexagrams
has a kind of cosmic symbolism,

428
00:22:55,458 --> 00:22:58,542
And then there's a kind
of oracular inscription

429
00:22:58,708 --> 00:23:00,208
that you're
supposed to decipher.

430
00:23:00,375 --> 00:23:02,458
According to mythology,

431
00:23:02,583 --> 00:23:05,833
the I Ching was
created by Emperor Fuxi

432
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,500
after he was visited by
an otherworldly being.

433
00:23:09,708 --> 00:23:13,125
It was said that one day
he was on the Yellow River

434
00:23:13,292 --> 00:23:16,500
and a water dragon
appeared to him,

435
00:23:16,708 --> 00:23:20,042
and that on the back
of this water dragon

436
00:23:20,208 --> 00:23:22,292
was revealed to him the I Ching.

437
00:23:22,458 --> 00:23:26,542
And therefore we can see
this system as in some way

438
00:23:26,708 --> 00:23:30,167
having come from
the stars, originally.

439
00:23:31,542 --> 00:23:36,333
Could the I Ching have
been an attempt by extraterrestrials

440
00:23:36,500 --> 00:23:39,167
to set up a common
communication language

441
00:23:39,333 --> 00:23:42,167
with mankind using binary code?

442
00:23:42,292 --> 00:23:46,333
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest evidence can be found

443
00:23:46,500 --> 00:23:49,625
by examining a
famous UFO encounter

444
00:23:49,792 --> 00:23:51,875
that occurred in
Suffolk County, England.

445
00:23:52,042 --> 00:23:55,333
On December 26, 1980,

446
00:23:55,542 --> 00:23:59,458
Sargeant James Penniston
and Airman John Burroughs

447
00:23:59,667 --> 00:24:01,708
were performing a
routine security check

448
00:24:01,875 --> 00:24:05,917
at a U.S. air force base
in Rendlesham Forest

449
00:24:06,042 --> 00:24:09,792
when they reportedly encountered
a large extraterrestrial craft.

450
00:24:11,583 --> 00:24:13,750
The
craft was triangular in shape,

451
00:24:13,875 --> 00:24:16,375
measuring about
six to seven feet high,

452
00:24:16,542 --> 00:24:18,333
black in color.

453
00:24:18,542 --> 00:24:20,583
I'd come around to
the far side of the craft

454
00:24:20,708 --> 00:24:22,308
and that's when I
noticed that there was,

455
00:24:22,417 --> 00:24:23,628
you know,
inscription on the side.

456
00:24:23,708 --> 00:24:26,458
Instead of something familiar,

457
00:24:26,542 --> 00:24:28,833
I see these
pictorial-type glyphs.

458
00:24:29,042 --> 00:24:31,833
And got running my hand
over the side of the craft.

459
00:24:31,958 --> 00:24:34,458
I don't know how
to explain this.

460
00:24:34,625 --> 00:24:36,667
It's like someone was
holding a picture up, okay?

461
00:24:36,833 --> 00:24:39,125
I could see it in my mind's eye.

462
00:24:40,625 --> 00:24:43,625
Zeroes and ones.

463
00:24:43,792 --> 00:24:46,750
So I recorded those.
One after another.

464
00:24:48,708 --> 00:24:50,250
Years later,

465
00:24:50,458 --> 00:24:52,417
a computer programmer

466
00:24:52,542 --> 00:24:54,583
took this information

467
00:24:54,750 --> 00:24:57,417
ran it through a
translation program

468
00:24:57,542 --> 00:25:00,125
and a message emerged.

469
00:25:00,333 --> 00:25:02,292
The message read

470
00:25:02,458 --> 00:25:05,583
"Exploration of humanity

471
00:25:05,708 --> 00:25:09,500
continuous for
planetary advance."

472
00:25:09,625 --> 00:25:13,375
Jim Penninston came
up with all this information

473
00:25:13,542 --> 00:25:15,792
without knowing
a thing in real life

474
00:25:15,958 --> 00:25:19,833
about binary code
and binary messages.

475
00:25:20,042 --> 00:25:22,958
Is it possible
that extraterrestrials

476
00:25:23,125 --> 00:25:26,250
are using binary code
as a common language

477
00:25:26,417 --> 00:25:29,042
to communicate with mankind?

478
00:25:29,208 --> 00:25:31,083
Who's to say
that extraterrestrials

479
00:25:31,208 --> 00:25:35,417
wouldn't choose to
communicate via ones and zeros?

480
00:25:35,583 --> 00:25:38,667
With ones and zeros,
you've got binary code.

481
00:25:38,792 --> 00:25:41,583
With binary code, you
can write a message.

482
00:25:41,708 --> 00:25:45,667
And perhaps that is the
language of the cosmos.

483
00:25:45,875 --> 00:25:48,667
And that's how to
communicate with them.

484
00:25:53,083 --> 00:25:56,833
One ofa.

485
00:25:56,958 --> 00:25:59,917
Its mythology is
chock full of stories

486
00:26:00,042 --> 00:26:02,917
of powerful gods
who came from the sky

487
00:26:03,042 --> 00:26:05,833
and possessed
astonishing technology,

488
00:26:06,042 --> 00:26:08,792
like flying craft
called vimanas.

489
00:26:08,958 --> 00:26:10,833
And there is evidence
that the secret

490
00:26:11,042 --> 00:26:13,583
to this technology
has been encoded

491
00:26:13,750 --> 00:26:16,167
within complex geometric symbols

492
00:26:16,375 --> 00:26:19,667
that are said to have
been designed by the gods.

493
00:26:19,875 --> 00:26:22,333
Number three on our countdown

494
00:26:22,500 --> 00:26:26,708
of the top ten alien
codes: mandalas.

495
00:26:31,083 --> 00:26:33,292
More than 5,000 years ago,

496
00:26:33,458 --> 00:26:36,792
the Indus Valley
civilization emerged

497
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,792
in the Punjab region of
modern-day India and Pakistan.

498
00:26:40,958 --> 00:26:44,250
Its people produced
the foundational texts

499
00:26:44,417 --> 00:26:46,875
for Hinduism, which
is widely regarded

500
00:26:47,042 --> 00:26:49,167
as the world's oldest religion

501
00:26:49,292 --> 00:26:52,875
and today has more
than one billion followers.

502
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,125
The earliest of these
texts, called the Vedas,

503
00:26:56,250 --> 00:26:59,458
describe how the gods
provided humankind

504
00:26:59,625 --> 00:27:02,833
with a visual guide
to sacred sounds.

505
00:27:02,958 --> 00:27:05,417
They are represented
in elaborate patterns

506
00:27:05,583 --> 00:27:07,833
called mandalas.

507
00:27:09,292 --> 00:27:13,500
The Vedas tell us that the
gods taught humans how to chant.

508
00:27:13,667 --> 00:27:15,625
How to pray and to sing

509
00:27:15,792 --> 00:27:18,125
in order to communicate
with the gods.

510
00:27:18,292 --> 00:27:22,167
Mandalas are mnemonic devices

511
00:27:22,333 --> 00:27:24,667
used to aid meditation

512
00:27:24,875 --> 00:27:28,292
often in tandem with chanting.

513
00:27:28,458 --> 00:27:33,250
So, what they're doing is
they're essentially translating

514
00:27:33,417 --> 00:27:37,167
sound into visual patterns.

515
00:27:39,042 --> 00:27:42,667
Mandalas
are important components

516
00:27:42,833 --> 00:27:45,333
in both Hindu and
Buddhist faiths.

517
00:27:45,500 --> 00:27:47,542
For ancient astronaut theorists,

518
00:27:47,708 --> 00:27:50,000
what is most intriguing
about mandalas

519
00:27:50,208 --> 00:27:52,833
is that the visual
patterns do, in fact,

520
00:27:53,042 --> 00:27:54,917
have a scientific connection

521
00:27:55,125 --> 00:27:58,500
to the sacred sounds
they are said to represent.

522
00:27:58,625 --> 00:28:00,917
This was discovered

523
00:28:01,042 --> 00:28:03,500
thanks to an 18th
century German physicist

524
00:28:03,625 --> 00:28:05,125
named Ernst Chladni,

525
00:28:05,250 --> 00:28:09,292
who is known as the
father of acoustics.

526
00:28:09,458 --> 00:28:12,083
In 1787, Chaldni's book,

527
00:28:12,208 --> 00:28:14,208
Discoveries in the
Theory of Sound,

528
00:28:14,417 --> 00:28:17,667
revealed that the
application of sound vibrations

529
00:28:17,792 --> 00:28:20,333
to grains of sand
on a metal plate

530
00:28:20,542 --> 00:28:22,833
creates complex
geometric shapes,

531
00:28:23,042 --> 00:28:27,292
now known as cymatic patterns.

532
00:28:27,458 --> 00:28:30,333
We've got this
thin metal plate like a sounding board

533
00:28:30,500 --> 00:28:33,833
and we've got a transducer
attached to the bottom of it.

534
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:38,417
And they spread sand
over the top of this plate.

535
00:28:38,542 --> 00:28:41,333
And start playing certain tones.

536
00:28:41,542 --> 00:28:43,833
And those sand particles
will start to bounce around

537
00:28:44,042 --> 00:28:46,167
and dance around
and they start to form

538
00:28:46,333 --> 00:28:49,167
these mathematical
circular patterns.

539
00:28:49,250 --> 00:28:51,875
And as we move up
through these frequencies,

540
00:28:52,042 --> 00:28:56,167
the sand goes into kind
of a chaos in-between state

541
00:28:56,375 --> 00:28:58,875
and then it arrives
at this next pattern.

542
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,875
And the higher the
frequency you go,

543
00:29:02,042 --> 00:29:05,375
the more these patterns
become more complex.

544
00:29:10,042 --> 00:29:11,667
For Hindus and Buddhists,

545
00:29:11,833 --> 00:29:15,000
the most important
sacred sound is "om."

546
00:29:15,208 --> 00:29:18,833
For centuries, this sound
has been depicted in mandalas

547
00:29:19,042 --> 00:29:21,708
by a circle with a
dot in the middle.

548
00:29:21,875 --> 00:29:27,167
Incredibly, the sound "om"
produces a cymatic pattern

549
00:29:27,292 --> 00:29:29,875
that perfectly
matches this depiction.

550
00:29:31,167 --> 00:29:33,583
Other sounds
also create patterns

551
00:29:33,792 --> 00:29:36,292
that are found in
ancient mandalas.

552
00:29:37,500 --> 00:29:39,042
Is it conceivable

553
00:29:39,208 --> 00:29:42,958
that the writers of
the ancient Vedic texts

554
00:29:43,083 --> 00:29:47,792
were given advanced knowledge
on how sound frequencies

555
00:29:47,958 --> 00:29:51,458
can be converted
into visual patterns?

556
00:29:51,625 --> 00:29:54,333
Is it therefore possible

557
00:29:54,500 --> 00:29:57,375
that sound is an important means

558
00:29:57,542 --> 00:30:01,042
of communication with
such higher intelligences?

559
00:30:03,208 --> 00:30:06,125
Could mandalas
contain an otherworldly message

560
00:30:06,292 --> 00:30:09,833
for humanity that is
based on sacred sounds?

561
00:30:10,042 --> 00:30:12,625
Ancient astronaut
theorists say yes

562
00:30:12,833 --> 00:30:15,083
and suggest
evidence can be found

563
00:30:15,208 --> 00:30:19,083
at the Sri Ranganathaswamy
Temple in Southern India.

564
00:30:20,125 --> 00:30:22,208
Standing in the
temple's courtyard

565
00:30:22,417 --> 00:30:26,208
are 40 ornate statues
that depict vimanas,

566
00:30:26,417 --> 00:30:29,292
vehicles that, according
to Sanskrit texts,

567
00:30:29,500 --> 00:30:32,250
were navigated by the gods.

568
00:30:32,417 --> 00:30:36,917
The word "vimana"
in ancient Vedic text

569
00:30:37,125 --> 00:30:39,292
means "flying machines."

570
00:30:39,458 --> 00:30:42,542
In Hinduism, it is
clearly established

571
00:30:42,708 --> 00:30:47,708
that the gods come down
from the sky using vimanas.

572
00:30:47,917 --> 00:30:50,833
And in the temple of Srirangam,

573
00:30:50,958 --> 00:30:55,833
these carvings show many
different types of vimanas.

574
00:30:55,958 --> 00:31:00,000
And what's really unique
is that under these vimanas,

575
00:31:00,208 --> 00:31:03,500
we are able to see
some very interesting

576
00:31:03,667 --> 00:31:06,667
patterns of mandala.

577
00:31:06,833 --> 00:31:10,167
According to legend,
each type of vimana

578
00:31:10,375 --> 00:31:15,250
can be activated with a
specific type of mandala.

579
00:31:16,208 --> 00:31:20,125
I believe that much
of ancient technology

580
00:31:20,292 --> 00:31:24,375
was activated
with specific types

581
00:31:24,542 --> 00:31:25,958
of frequencies.

582
00:31:26,083 --> 00:31:29,250
And if we crack
this visual code,

583
00:31:29,375 --> 00:31:31,875
if we crack this
cymatic pattern,

584
00:31:32,042 --> 00:31:34,250
we might actually unlock

585
00:31:34,375 --> 00:31:37,542
the secret to power
these vimanas.

586
00:31:42,333 --> 00:31:46,625
Ancient Aliens,

587
00:31:46,792 --> 00:31:50,083
some of the most mysterious
are massive impressions

588
00:31:50,250 --> 00:31:54,208
that randomly appear in
fields all over the world.

589
00:31:54,417 --> 00:31:56,083
And what's most
interesting to me

590
00:31:56,250 --> 00:31:58,708
is that these complex patterns

591
00:31:58,875 --> 00:32:02,417
may be encoded with
otherworldly messages.

592
00:32:04,042 --> 00:32:07,458
At number two on our
countdown: crop circles.

593
00:32:17,458 --> 00:32:20,292
- A
- mysterious geometric pattern

594
00:32:20,458 --> 00:32:23,417
emerges in a field
of mustard plants.

595
00:32:23,625 --> 00:32:27,000
The perfectly symmetrical
design is a phenomenon

596
00:32:27,167 --> 00:32:29,958
known as a crop circle.

597
00:32:30,083 --> 00:32:33,833
Crop circles are basically

598
00:32:33,958 --> 00:32:35,750
features, designs,

599
00:32:35,917 --> 00:32:39,625
illustrations of high
complexity in crops.

600
00:32:39,750 --> 00:32:44,208
They tend to be complicated
designs of unknown origin.

601
00:32:45,583 --> 00:32:48,333
Crop circles
range from small discs

602
00:32:48,500 --> 00:32:51,500
to elaborate pictograms
hundreds of feet across.

603
00:32:52,583 --> 00:32:54,875
They have been
found in various crops,

604
00:32:55,083 --> 00:32:58,292
including wheat,
barley, oilseed rape,

605
00:32:58,458 --> 00:33:00,250
and corn.

606
00:33:00,417 --> 00:33:02,708
In terms of
the patterns themselves,

607
00:33:02,917 --> 00:33:04,875
they've been
undergoing this amazing

608
00:33:05,042 --> 00:33:06,917
sort of ramp up
in sophistication.

609
00:33:07,042 --> 00:33:09,792
You can find these huge,

610
00:33:09,958 --> 00:33:12,250
what they call
pictographs, that span

611
00:33:12,375 --> 00:33:14,875
hundreds of feet
across a whole field,

612
00:33:15,042 --> 00:33:18,000
and feature multiple components.

613
00:33:18,167 --> 00:33:21,083
And they're arranged with
mathematical precision.

614
00:33:22,083 --> 00:33:25,583
Crop circles appear in
more than 50 countries.

615
00:33:26,625 --> 00:33:29,667
And there literally have
been thousands of them.

616
00:33:29,833 --> 00:33:33,375
Maybe over 10,000 crop circles

617
00:33:33,542 --> 00:33:37,125
that we're aware
of in the modern era.

618
00:33:38,583 --> 00:33:41,000
One of the first in 1966,

619
00:33:41,208 --> 00:33:43,458
it was Tully,
Queensland, Australia.

620
00:33:43,625 --> 00:33:48,625
A farmer heard a buzzing
sound and literally saw

621
00:33:48,792 --> 00:33:53,667
this big round, maybe
30-feet-diameter craft, disk,

622
00:33:53,833 --> 00:33:55,625
rising up out of
what essentially

623
00:33:55,792 --> 00:33:58,083
was marshy, reedy ground.

624
00:33:58,250 --> 00:34:00,792
And it goes up and disappears,

625
00:34:00,917 --> 00:34:03,958
and left behind the circle.

626
00:34:04,083 --> 00:34:06,583
He finds a
circular area where the grass

627
00:34:06,708 --> 00:34:10,333
in the swamp or the
reeds are matted down.

628
00:34:10,458 --> 00:34:12,792
This is reported in
the Australian press,

629
00:34:12,958 --> 00:34:15,083
and they start labeling
these "UFO nests,"

630
00:34:15,208 --> 00:34:18,333
or "flying saucer nests."

631
00:34:18,458 --> 00:34:22,542
Something keeps
laying things down in sequence

632
00:34:22,708 --> 00:34:27,208
as if it has a big picture
of how it is communicating

633
00:34:27,375 --> 00:34:31,667
with this planet, but it
is doing so in pieces.

634
00:34:31,875 --> 00:34:35,833
What in the world is making
these patterns and why?

635
00:34:37,750 --> 00:34:41,042
Ancient astronaut
theorists suggest that the answer may be

636
00:34:41,208 --> 00:34:44,333
encoded within the
crop circles themselves

637
00:34:44,542 --> 00:34:49,000
and might have critical
implications for mankind.

638
00:34:49,167 --> 00:34:52,500
As evidence, they point
to an elaborate formation

639
00:34:52,625 --> 00:34:55,625
that appeared in
Wroughton, England in 2008.

640
00:34:57,250 --> 00:34:59,375
One formation had
everyone baffled

641
00:34:59,542 --> 00:35:01,500
and people were saying,
"Well, what is this?"

642
00:35:02,583 --> 00:35:04,750
Then a mathematician
had a look at it and said,

643
00:35:04,917 --> 00:35:08,125
"Wait a minute, that's
a representation of pi,

644
00:35:08,250 --> 00:35:11,333
and it's correct down
to ten decimal places."

645
00:35:12,375 --> 00:35:15,333
It's a representation of
pi in a geometric sense.

646
00:35:15,500 --> 00:35:18,500
It's kind of interesting
because the way you get pi

647
00:35:18,667 --> 00:35:22,500
out of it is the lengths of the
different arcs in each segment.

648
00:35:23,542 --> 00:35:25,500
And what happens is
there's these little notches

649
00:35:25,708 --> 00:35:28,792
in the spiral that let you know
you're at the end of an arc

650
00:35:28,958 --> 00:35:32,417
so you actually have to measure
the arc lengths as you go around

651
00:35:32,542 --> 00:35:34,833
and their lengths give
you the digits of pi.

652
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,458
And there's a little circle to
give you the decimal point.

653
00:35:37,583 --> 00:35:40,042
So it's a really interesting
example of using

654
00:35:40,208 --> 00:35:43,625
geometry as a code for
representing digits and numbers.

655
00:35:45,208 --> 00:35:48,500
Many of the most
famous crop circles

656
00:35:48,667 --> 00:35:51,333
actually derive
from fractal patterns.

657
00:35:51,500 --> 00:35:54,917
Which is a mathematical shape.

658
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,167
The Mandelbrot set.

659
00:35:59,875 --> 00:36:02,125
The Julia set.

660
00:36:02,292 --> 00:36:06,750
To make these you have
to have knowledge of math.

661
00:36:06,917 --> 00:36:10,708
Mathematics is of course
the universal language.

662
00:36:12,083 --> 00:36:14,583
Could crop circles,
as some believe,

663
00:36:14,750 --> 00:36:17,458
be an attempt from
an alien civilization

664
00:36:17,583 --> 00:36:20,417
to reach out and
communicate with us?

665
00:36:23,042 --> 00:36:26,583
There is only one alien
code left on our countdown.

666
00:36:26,708 --> 00:36:29,208
And we've definitely
saved the best for last,

667
00:36:29,375 --> 00:36:31,333
because this code is one

668
00:36:31,500 --> 00:36:35,333
that we're all carrying with us.

669
00:36:39,125 --> 00:36:42,333
So far on our countdown
of the top alien codes,

670
00:36:42,458 --> 00:36:45,875
we've investigated
extraordinary sites

671
00:36:46,042 --> 00:36:48,625
and analyzed mysterious symbols.

672
00:36:48,792 --> 00:36:52,083
But as far as I'm concerned,
the most compelling discovery

673
00:36:52,250 --> 00:36:55,458
won't be found in
an ancient structure

674
00:36:55,625 --> 00:36:59,208
but in a message hidden
inside the human body.

675
00:37:00,667 --> 00:37:04,333
Coming in at number
one: the genetic code

676
00:37:08,500 --> 00:37:11,917
Silves,
Portugal. 1984.

677
00:37:12,042 --> 00:37:16,000
Farmers digging a well come
across a mysterious object

678
00:37:16,125 --> 00:37:18,458
15 feet beneath the earth.

679
00:37:18,625 --> 00:37:21,917
A six-foot-long
carved limestone egg.

680
00:37:22,958 --> 00:37:25,833
Known as the Algarve
egg, it has been dated

681
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,375
to at least 3500 BC.

682
00:37:28,583 --> 00:37:32,458
And scientists conclude
it could be even older.

683
00:37:32,625 --> 00:37:36,417
But what interests ancient
astronaut theorists the most

684
00:37:36,583 --> 00:37:39,583
is a mysterious pattern
etched on its surface.

685
00:37:41,667 --> 00:37:44,500
When we look at
the Algarve egg, it had a symbol on it

686
00:37:44,625 --> 00:37:47,625
that looked like
intertwined serpents.

687
00:37:47,792 --> 00:37:52,417
Or they can also be
interpreted as DNA strands.

688
00:37:52,583 --> 00:37:56,667
And the idea of the
double helix wasn't invented

689
00:37:56,833 --> 00:37:59,292
or wasn't discovered
by us human beings

690
00:37:59,458 --> 00:38:02,542
until well into
the 20th century.

691
00:38:03,875 --> 00:38:05,625
Is it possible that the design

692
00:38:05,792 --> 00:38:10,333
found on the Algarve egg
shows the DNA double helix?

693
00:38:10,542 --> 00:38:14,000
Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes and suggest

694
00:38:14,208 --> 00:38:17,083
that this genetic symbol

695
00:38:17,250 --> 00:38:20,125
can be found throughout
the ancient world.

696
00:38:20,333 --> 00:38:23,167
The DNA spiral is shown

697
00:38:23,333 --> 00:38:26,417
on different antique
rocks and steles.

698
00:38:26,542 --> 00:38:28,042
Just, for example,

699
00:38:28,208 --> 00:38:30,500
look at the Sumerian steles.

700
00:38:30,667 --> 00:38:34,125
There you see
so-called flying geniuses

701
00:38:34,292 --> 00:38:36,958
or winged geniuses.

702
00:38:37,917 --> 00:38:41,000
Between these winged
geniuses is something

703
00:38:41,208 --> 00:38:44,708
which archeology
calls the tree of life.

704
00:38:44,875 --> 00:38:47,250
But if you look
at the tree of life,

705
00:38:47,417 --> 00:38:52,167
it's in reality a DNA spiral.

706
00:38:52,333 --> 00:38:55,625
How is it possible
that the double helix appears

707
00:38:55,792 --> 00:38:58,333
in ancient carvings and artwork

708
00:38:58,542 --> 00:39:01,250
when it wasn't discovered
by modern scientists

709
00:39:01,375 --> 00:39:04,125
until 1953?

710
00:39:04,250 --> 00:39:06,917
Ancient astronaut
theorists suggest

711
00:39:07,125 --> 00:39:10,500
clues have been hidden
within our own cells.

712
00:39:10,583 --> 00:39:15,917
In 2013, Kazakhstani
scientists Vladimir Shcherbak

713
00:39:16,042 --> 00:39:19,833
and Maxim Makukov
published a shocking proposal

714
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,125
that there is an
intelligent code

715
00:39:22,292 --> 00:39:25,417
that can be found
in our own DNA.

716
00:39:25,625 --> 00:39:28,750
They concluded that there was

717
00:39:28,875 --> 00:39:32,292
a certain amount of
mathematical precision

718
00:39:32,458 --> 00:39:36,458
and what's known
as a digital checking

719
00:39:36,625 --> 00:39:38,542
built into our DNA,

720
00:39:38,708 --> 00:39:40,875
like computer codes have.

721
00:39:41,042 --> 00:39:44,333
Checking codes to make sure
that all the other codes are right.

722
00:39:44,542 --> 00:39:47,167
Ever since
the theory of evolution

723
00:39:47,375 --> 00:39:51,167
was introduced by
Charles Darwin in 1859,

724
00:39:51,333 --> 00:39:54,792
scientists have searched
for a so-called "missing link"

725
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,167
that connects humans
to our hominid ancestors.

726
00:39:58,333 --> 00:40:03,000
Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest this evolutionary leap

727
00:40:03,208 --> 00:40:07,083
was made by extraterrestrial
manipulation of our DNA.

728
00:40:08,708 --> 00:40:11,000
We've always
suggested that the ultimate proof

729
00:40:11,125 --> 00:40:13,833
for the ancient astronaut theory

730
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:17,083
will not happen
because we'll discover

731
00:40:17,250 --> 00:40:21,958
a buried spaceship somewhere
or a ray gun in a tomb.

732
00:40:23,500 --> 00:40:27,958
But rather inside
of our own DNA.

733
00:40:28,167 --> 00:40:30,333
Believe it or not,
I have colleagues of mine

734
00:40:30,542 --> 00:40:34,833
looking for secret
messages in our DNA.

735
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:39,333
And some of my friends
take this to the nth degree

736
00:40:39,500 --> 00:40:42,375
and say, "Maybe
aliens from outer space

737
00:40:42,542 --> 00:40:44,833
have left us a message."

738
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,083
Maybe there's a
message there hidden

739
00:40:48,250 --> 00:40:50,458
by an advanced civilization

740
00:40:50,667 --> 00:40:52,333
and that says,
"Here we are, folks.

741
00:40:52,542 --> 00:40:54,083
"We created you.

742
00:40:54,250 --> 00:40:57,667
And to prove it, we left a
code for you in your DNA."

743
00:40:57,833 --> 00:41:00,500
Well, we can't rule it out.

744
00:41:02,083 --> 00:41:06,333
The idea that extraterrestrials
placed a hidden message

745
00:41:06,542 --> 00:41:09,417
in our DNA is not
only sensational

746
00:41:09,542 --> 00:41:11,875
but also entirely possible.

747
00:41:13,083 --> 00:41:14,500
And one thing is clear.

748
00:41:14,625 --> 00:41:16,292
Whether they're standing stones,

749
00:41:16,458 --> 00:41:18,208
elaborate mandalas

750
00:41:18,375 --> 00:41:20,625
or massive geoglyphs,

751
00:41:20,750 --> 00:41:24,833
perhaps by deciphering
these alien codes

752
00:41:25,042 --> 00:41:29,292
we will unlock the truth
about our extraterrestrial past.

753
