118 00:06:48,223 --> 00:06:50,574 Could the Saqqara bird reveal that 119 00:06:50,802 --> 00:06:55,321 The ancient Egyptians possessed the power of flight? 120 00:06:55,415 --> 00:06:59,896 To find the answer, in 2006, aviation and aerodynamics 121 00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:02,569 Expert Simon Sanderson built a scale model 122 00:07:02,663 --> 00:07:04,146 Of the Saqqara bird, 123 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,500 Five times larger than the original, 124 00:07:07,593 --> 00:07:10,262 And tested its aerodynamic properties in a wind tunnel. 125 00:07:13,841 --> 00:07:16,060 We're running at a constant speed, slowly increasing 126 00:07:16,084 --> 00:07:17,747 The angle of attack and then measuring 127 00:07:17,771 --> 00:07:20,490 The forces which it's producing. 128 00:07:20,514 --> 00:07:24,684 That way we can learn about its flight characteristics. 129 00:07:24,836 --> 00:07:28,112 At ten degrees, we're producing four times weight and lift. 130 00:07:28,339 --> 00:07:29,500 So it actually would be flying now. 131 00:07:29,524 --> 00:07:31,341 - Yeah. - That's good. 132 00:07:31,434 --> 00:07:34,452 Tests show the Saqqara bird is 133 00:07:34,603 --> 00:07:39,014 A highly-developed glider. 134 00:07:39,108 --> 00:07:44,036 And this is a design we use today. 135 00:07:44,189 --> 00:07:47,350 But if the Saqqara bird is capable of flight, 136 00:07:47,375 --> 00:07:51,136 Where would ancient Egyptians have acquired such technology? 137 00:07:51,362 --> 00:07:53,949 I think that people in ancient times 138 00:07:53,973 --> 00:07:57,028 Were visited by beings coming not from this earth. 139 00:07:57,052 --> 00:08:01,790 And they gave us culture and scientific technologies 140 00:08:01,814 --> 00:08:05,800 To improve our life on earth, 141 00:08:05,894 --> 00:08:09,571 Coming from the primitive to a higher-developed culture. 142 00:08:14,552 --> 00:08:18,555 The next artifacts on my list might be microscopic in size, 143 00:08:18,648 --> 00:08:21,644 But they're enormously significant. 144 00:08:21,668 --> 00:08:24,836 They appear to be advanced nanotechnology, 145 00:08:25,062 --> 00:08:27,564 And they were found so deep beneath the earth 146 00:08:27,656 --> 00:08:29,415 That geologists estimate them 147 00:08:29,509 --> 00:08:31,896 To be thousands of years old. 148 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,678 We're potentially looKing at actual remnants 149 00:08:34,905 --> 00:08:36,681 Of alien technology. 150 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,403 And that's why number eight on my countdown 151 00:08:40,427 --> 00:08:43,020 Is the Russian nanotubes. 152 00:08:48,586 --> 00:08:53,250 Eastern Russia, 1991. 153 00:08:53,274 --> 00:08:56,534 Geologists lead an expedition into the mineral-rich 154 00:08:56,686 --> 00:09:01,518 Ural mountains in hopes of locating gold deposits. 155 00:09:01,542 --> 00:09:05,263 For decades, people hiKing in this area of the urals 156 00:09:05,287 --> 00:09:09,438 Near the Kozhim, Naroda and Balbany Rivers, 157 00:09:09,532 --> 00:09:12,107 Have reported witnessing unidentified craft 158 00:09:12,201 --> 00:09:13,961 And strange anomalies in the sky. 159 00:09:17,615 --> 00:09:20,966 On this occasion, however, the geological team encounters 160 00:09:21,061 --> 00:09:25,875 Something unexpected not above the earth, but below it. 161 00:09:25,899 --> 00:09:30,475 While excavating at depths of over 30 feet, 162 00:09:30,571 --> 00:09:35,907 They discover a scattering of tiny metal coils and springs. 163 00:09:36,134 --> 00:09:38,221 They discovered very unusual objects 164 00:09:38,245 --> 00:09:40,653 That were tiny springs 165 00:09:40,746 --> 00:09:43,914 That were always somehow curled towards the left side. 166 00:09:45,659 --> 00:09:49,254 Most of them could not be seen unless you use the microscope. 167 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,664 Just a few were maybe a few millimeters in size. 168 00:09:52,759 --> 00:09:54,408 That soil wasn't touched 169 00:09:54,501 --> 00:09:58,816 For hundreds of thousands or more years. 170 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,600 The area where it was found was probably 171 00:10:01,750 --> 00:10:04,677 Tens of kilometers around. 172 00:10:04,770 --> 00:10:09,441 It's as if something exploded thousands of years ago, 173 00:10:09,668 --> 00:10:12,277 And the fragments were lying all over the place. 174 00:10:14,947 --> 00:10:18,336 The metal fragments were sent to the Russian academy 175 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,453 Of sciences in st. Petersburg for analysis. 176 00:10:22,605 --> 00:10:23,932 They found thousands of these things. 177 00:10:23,956 --> 00:10:26,365 They have to look at them through microscopes. 178 00:10:26,518 --> 00:10:30,347 Some of them are just one ten thousandth of an inch in size. 179 00:10:30,371 --> 00:10:35,133 They're all kinds of spirals and tiny machined bits. 180 00:10:35,283 --> 00:10:37,614 When they look at it, they seem to be exactly like 181 00:10:37,638 --> 00:10:40,546 The kind of tiny nanoparticles 182 00:10:40,698 --> 00:10:45,028 And machine bits that we are creating today. 183 00:10:45,052 --> 00:10:47,220 Testing revealed that the fragments were composed 184 00:10:47,313 --> 00:10:52,484 Of rare metals, and appear to have been manufactured. 185 00:10:52,711 --> 00:10:54,705 But based on the depth at which they were found, 186 00:10:54,729 --> 00:10:57,062 Geologists estimate they would date back 187 00:10:57,215 --> 00:11:01,067 Tens of thousands of years. 188 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,412 So what could explain this seemingly impossible discovery? 189 00:11:07,333 --> 00:11:10,576 Ancient astronaut theorists suggest clues may be found 190 00:11:10,671 --> 00:11:14,057 By examining the materials that make up the nanospirals, 191 00:11:14,081 --> 00:11:18,658 Like tungsten and molybdenum... Elements commonly used 192 00:11:18,753 --> 00:11:21,565 In NASA spacecraft. 193 00:11:21,588 --> 00:11:24,740 Molybdenum is an additive that we use to put in steel 194 00:11:24,833 --> 00:11:27,259 To make steel have various properties. 195 00:11:27,412 --> 00:11:30,171 And it's used in manufacturing aircraft. 196 00:11:30,264 --> 00:11:35,084 Could it be, as ancient astronaut theorists speculate, 197 00:11:35,177 --> 00:11:37,177 That the nanospirals have come from 198 00:11:37,272 --> 00:11:39,447 An extraterrestrial craft? 199 00:11:41,927 --> 00:11:45,945 Ural mountains are a very interesting space 200 00:11:46,096 --> 00:11:49,927 In the paranormal history of Russia. 201 00:11:49,951 --> 00:11:53,544 And I've studied a lot because there have always been 202 00:11:53,772 --> 00:11:57,623 Incredible ufo sightings in the ural mountains. 203 00:11:57,775 --> 00:12:01,626 So, is this a debris field from a crashed 204 00:12:01,779 --> 00:12:05,222 Extraterrestrial craft in the ural mountains? 205 00:12:05,450 --> 00:12:08,611 There could be crash sites all over the world 206 00:12:08,635 --> 00:12:11,145 That are hundreds of thousands of years old. 207 00:12:19,740 --> 00:12:21,798 Oftentimes, artifacts that support 208 00:12:21,890 --> 00:12:23,408 The ancient astronaut theory 209 00:12:23,558 --> 00:12:26,463 Are hiding in plain sight. 210 00:12:26,488 --> 00:12:29,322 For example, there's an Egyptian temple carving 211 00:12:29,474 --> 00:12:31,469 That some scholars believe is a representation of a snake 212 00:12:31,493 --> 00:12:33,250 And a lotus flower. 213 00:12:33,477 --> 00:12:36,139 But in my opinion, what you're looKing at is 214 00:12:36,163 --> 00:12:38,475 The depiction of modern technology. 215 00:12:38,500 --> 00:12:43,576 Number seven on my countdown of alien artifacts, 216 00:12:43,671 --> 00:12:46,096 The dendera light bulb. 217 00:12:52,938 --> 00:12:55,250 Dendera, Egypt. 218 00:12:55,274 --> 00:12:58,926 370 miles south of the Giza Plateau 219 00:12:59,019 --> 00:13:01,446 Stands the Hathor Temple. 220 00:13:01,673 --> 00:13:04,259 The narrow passageways of this more than 221 00:13:04,283 --> 00:13:09,264 2,000-year-old monument are lined with curious images, 222 00:13:09,288 --> 00:13:11,772 And one that is of particular interest 223 00:13:11,865 --> 00:13:14,793 To ancient astronaut theorists. 224 00:13:14,943 --> 00:13:17,440 Underneath this structure is the so-called 225 00:13:17,463 --> 00:13:21,298 Lotus flower of dendera. 226 00:13:21,450 --> 00:13:24,802 And there are not just a few inside the crypt, 227 00:13:24,953 --> 00:13:28,213 But they're, in fact, also on the outside wall on top. 228 00:13:28,365 --> 00:13:30,860 That's something that's often not discussed. 229 00:13:30,884 --> 00:13:32,309 So what are we looKing at here? 230 00:13:32,537 --> 00:13:38,536 Egyptology suggests that this bulb-like thing, 231 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:43,562 It essentially is the aroma of the lotus flower, 232 00:13:43,657 --> 00:13:47,658 And that the snake in the middle illustrates fertility. 233 00:13:47,809 --> 00:13:50,403 What's often not discussed is that 234 00:13:50,554 --> 00:13:54,999 The surrounding hieroglyphics... 'cause you have monkey gods 235 00:13:55,150 --> 00:13:58,076 Standing around with sharp knives. 236 00:13:58,229 --> 00:14:00,482 It indicates danger, death. 237 00:14:00,506 --> 00:14:03,152 And there are textual references 238 00:14:03,176 --> 00:14:08,254 That say that this has something to do with a bringer of light. 239 00:14:08,347 --> 00:14:12,258 Why would there be descriptions of bringers of light? 240 00:14:12,409 --> 00:14:15,168 Egyptologists maintain that it actually portrays 241 00:14:15,263 --> 00:14:16,855 The moment of creation. 242 00:14:17,005 --> 00:14:20,482 But it definitely resembles a lightbulb or a lamp. 243 00:14:22,754 --> 00:14:24,841 Here is a replica of the bulb that's shown 244 00:14:24,865 --> 00:14:27,606 In the dendera reliefs in Egypt. 245 00:14:27,701 --> 00:14:30,421 What's interesting about this bulb is the fact that 246 00:14:30,445 --> 00:14:33,090 On the wall relief, we see the bulb is actually 247 00:14:33,114 --> 00:14:37,040 Plugged into what appears to be a power source. 248 00:14:37,192 --> 00:14:40,119 So what we have here is a bulb, which very easily 249 00:14:40,270 --> 00:14:42,173 Could have been used by the Egyptians to light 250 00:14:42,197 --> 00:14:44,381 The deep recesses of tombs and crypts. 251 00:14:44,609 --> 00:14:46,717 How did the ancient Egyptians 252 00:14:46,869 --> 00:14:50,129 Light the insides of their structures? 253 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:54,634 Because some structures, not only are they deep underground, 254 00:14:54,727 --> 00:14:56,947 But there's different corners, and different shafts 255 00:14:56,971 --> 00:14:59,563 And corridors, sometimes on multiple levels. 256 00:14:59,715 --> 00:15:04,235 And some of these places are filled with hieroglyphics. 257 00:15:04,461 --> 00:15:06,624 The extraterrestrials did not let these people 258 00:15:06,648 --> 00:15:07,739 Work in the dark. 259 00:15:07,966 --> 00:15:10,961 Of course they provided lighting sources. 260 00:15:10,985 --> 00:15:15,580 And then that was also put in stone. 261 00:15:15,730 --> 00:15:18,565 Because otherwise, nobody would believe 262 00:15:18,659 --> 00:15:23,495 That truth in the future. 263 00:15:23,648 --> 00:15:27,570 I've read the creation stories of countless ancient cultures, 264 00:15:27,594 --> 00:15:29,985 And in nearly every one of them, 265 00:15:30,078 --> 00:15:32,908 The gods came down from the sky, 266 00:15:32,932 --> 00:15:35,577 Usually in some type of flying craft, 267 00:15:35,601 --> 00:15:38,269 Surrounded by smoke and fire. 268 00:15:38,421 --> 00:15:40,415 Now, to me, these are nothing else 269 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,941 But extraterrestrial encounters. 270 00:15:43,091 --> 00:15:45,610 And if you want further proof, just take a look 271 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:49,926 At how the ancient people of Japan depicted their gods. 272 00:15:49,950 --> 00:15:54,192 Number six on my alien artifacts countdown: 273 00:15:54,287 --> 00:15:55,452 The Dogu Statues. 274 00:15:59,683 --> 00:16:02,460 On the east asian islands of Japan, 275 00:16:02,610 --> 00:16:05,520 Remnants of the ancient world can still be found in the midst 276 00:16:05,614 --> 00:16:08,948 Of a modern, hi-tech society. 277 00:16:09,043 --> 00:16:14,212 And the most incredible are not the opulent palaces and shrines, 278 00:16:14,307 --> 00:16:17,216 But a collection of extremely ancient clay vessels 279 00:16:17,309 --> 00:16:19,719 And figurines, 280 00:16:19,870 --> 00:16:23,648 Some of which date back more than 12,000 years. 281 00:16:23,798 --> 00:16:27,467 They are credited to a people called the jomon. 282 00:16:27,562 --> 00:16:32,375 The earliest culture that we can identify in Japan is the jomon, 283 00:16:32,399 --> 00:16:36,046 Which is originally a stone age culture running roughly 284 00:16:36,070 --> 00:16:41,832 From 10,000 bce to 300 bce. 285 00:16:41,984 --> 00:16:45,669 It is a culture that we don't know an awful lot about, 286 00:16:45,897 --> 00:16:47,224 Because they had no writing system. 287 00:16:47,248 --> 00:16:50,485 All we have is artifacts. 288 00:16:50,509 --> 00:16:52,400 The little that we do know about the jomon 289 00:16:52,495 --> 00:16:55,178 Comes from archaeological evidence. 290 00:16:55,405 --> 00:16:59,995 And one of the most representative artifacts 291 00:17:00,019 --> 00:17:03,687 That is tied to the jomon is the dogu statue. 292 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,694 Approximately 15,000 dogu figurines, 293 00:17:10,846 --> 00:17:13,271 Resembling strange humanoid beings, 294 00:17:13,423 --> 00:17:16,200 Have been found at various jomon sites in Japan. 295 00:17:18,704 --> 00:17:21,372 Ancient astronaut theorists suggest these figurines 296 00:17:21,523 --> 00:17:24,616 Represent the kami, a group of beings 297 00:17:24,769 --> 00:17:27,027 The Japanese believe descended to this world 298 00:17:27,121 --> 00:17:30,105 In the ancient past. 299 00:17:30,199 --> 00:17:33,384 Shintoism is the primary religion of Japan, 300 00:17:33,611 --> 00:17:36,127 And they worship what they call the kami, 301 00:17:36,221 --> 00:17:39,798 Which are these celestial beings that are able to inhabit 302 00:17:39,951 --> 00:17:42,613 Basically anything, from a human being to an animal, 303 00:17:42,636 --> 00:17:46,305 And even inanimate objects. 304 00:17:46,457 --> 00:17:48,900 Then they also describe them as having come down 305 00:17:49,126 --> 00:17:51,644 From their celestial palace in the sky. 306 00:17:51,738 --> 00:17:54,572 And these figurines look like these humanoid beings 307 00:17:54,722 --> 00:17:57,982 That are in some type of space suits. 308 00:17:58,077 --> 00:18:00,059 There are thousands of these statuettes 309 00:18:00,153 --> 00:18:01,298 That have been recovered, 310 00:18:01,321 --> 00:18:04,468 And these figures have goggle-type eyes, 311 00:18:04,491 --> 00:18:07,250 And they have rivets all over their body, 312 00:18:07,403 --> 00:18:09,455 Indicating that they're wearing some kind of a space suit 313 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,589 Or technological armor. 314 00:18:12,740 --> 00:18:17,239 So you have to ask yourself, were these statues 315 00:18:17,262 --> 00:18:21,432 Sky beings who came and directed the Japanese 316 00:18:21,584 --> 00:18:24,268 To have their civilization and culture, 317 00:18:24,420 --> 00:18:28,605 And that ultimately these sky gods are their ancestors? 318 00:18:31,336 --> 00:18:34,612 As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, 319 00:18:34,762 --> 00:18:38,594 The dogu figures were not inspired by the imagination, 320 00:18:38,617 --> 00:18:42,005 But depict very real visitors that the people of Japan 321 00:18:42,028 --> 00:18:44,864 Encountered thousands of years ago, 322 00:18:45,016 --> 00:18:49,085 And provide a compelling record of extraterrestrial contact. 323 00:18:57,286 --> 00:18:59,452 We're coming up on the halfway mark in my countdown 324 00:18:59,547 --> 00:19:02,472 Of the top ten alien artifacts, 325 00:19:02,700 --> 00:19:06,125 And this next object is truly remarkable. 326 00:19:06,220 --> 00:19:09,296 It's an ancient figurine that was discovered in Mexico, 327 00:19:09,390 --> 00:19:13,558 But to me, it clearly depicts a man in a modern flight suit. 328 00:19:13,653 --> 00:19:18,040 The number-five artifact in my top ten countdown: 329 00:19:18,065 --> 00:19:19,990 The Rocket Man of La Venta. 330 00:19:23,328 --> 00:19:25,715 Throughout the world, ancient illustrations 331 00:19:25,740 --> 00:19:28,147 And statues can be found that depict figures 332 00:19:28,241 --> 00:19:30,075 Dressed in strange attire 333 00:19:30,228 --> 00:19:32,221 That, as far as ancient astronaut theorists 334 00:19:32,246 --> 00:19:34,488 Are concerned, is eerily reminiscent 335 00:19:34,582 --> 00:19:37,082 Of modern-day space suits. 336 00:19:37,176 --> 00:19:41,237 Examples include cave art in Italy, australia, 337 00:19:41,329 --> 00:19:44,347 And the American southwest, 338 00:19:44,500 --> 00:19:47,092 As well as sculptures, like the statue of pachamama 339 00:19:47,244 --> 00:19:50,240 In tiahuanaco, bolivia, 340 00:19:50,263 --> 00:19:54,076 Depictions of the mayan god kukulkan in Mexico, 341 00:19:54,101 --> 00:19:58,028 Curious figures carved into the hoysaleswara temple 342 00:19:58,256 --> 00:20:01,176 In india, and a strange sculpture found 343 00:20:01,201 --> 00:20:04,518 In guatemala city. 344 00:20:04,612 --> 00:20:07,704 But perhaps most intriguing of all is a small figurine 345 00:20:07,855 --> 00:20:09,874 Attributed to the olmec, 346 00:20:10,101 --> 00:20:13,355 A civilization that emerged around 1400 bc 347 00:20:13,378 --> 00:20:16,933 In the area of modern-day Mexico. 348 00:20:16,958 --> 00:20:19,791 The olmecs are one of the most mysterious 349 00:20:19,885 --> 00:20:24,273 Ancient cultures known to the history of our planet. 350 00:20:24,298 --> 00:20:27,967 And in la venta, we have carvings 351 00:20:28,118 --> 00:20:33,638 That show the olmecs in very bizarre scenes. 352 00:20:33,732 --> 00:20:38,143 One of them is this plumed serpent that appears to be 353 00:20:38,238 --> 00:20:42,464 Floating in the sky, and you actually see a person 354 00:20:42,557 --> 00:20:47,388 Sitting inside this flying snake. 355 00:20:47,413 --> 00:20:53,157 And so you have to wonder if somehow the olmecs had access 356 00:20:53,252 --> 00:20:57,732 To aviation technology, and I personally think they did. 357 00:20:57,757 --> 00:21:01,592 Because at the museum of natural history in new york city, 358 00:21:01,743 --> 00:21:05,907 There is a olmec figurine about this tall, 359 00:21:05,932 --> 00:21:10,153 And you can tell that this guy is wearing 360 00:21:10,176 --> 00:21:13,414 Some type of a flight suit. 361 00:21:13,439 --> 00:21:17,016 You've got the legs here like in a modern-day astronaut suit, 362 00:21:17,167 --> 00:21:20,352 And there's also some type of a life-support pack 363 00:21:20,505 --> 00:21:22,113 That's on his chest. 364 00:21:23,356 --> 00:21:25,340 There are six wings, 365 00:21:25,433 --> 00:21:28,672 And the head is clearly enclosed 366 00:21:28,695 --> 00:21:32,289 By a Skullcap similar to modern-day astronauts. 367 00:21:34,701 --> 00:21:37,461 In my opinion, it is the smoKing gun 368 00:21:37,688 --> 00:21:40,614 Of our ancestors having aviation technology 369 00:21:40,708 --> 00:21:42,590 Thousands of years ago. 370 00:21:44,878 --> 00:21:48,306 When it comes to ancient artifacts depicting advanced 371 00:21:48,457 --> 00:21:51,700 Technology, one of the most extraordinary examples 372 00:21:51,794 --> 00:21:55,127 I've ever seen is a tiny gold figurine 373 00:21:55,221 --> 00:21:58,535 That looks remarkably similar to a modern-day airplane. 374 00:21:58,558 --> 00:22:01,462 In fact, it's such an important piece of evidence 375 00:22:01,487 --> 00:22:03,320 For the ancient astronaut theory 376 00:22:03,548 --> 00:22:06,542 That I wear a replica on my shirt pocket. 377 00:22:06,567 --> 00:22:09,233 Number four on my countdown 378 00:22:09,386 --> 00:22:12,496 The gold flyer. 379 00:22:17,060 --> 00:22:19,836 The southern highlands of colombia. 380 00:22:19,988 --> 00:22:23,007 In the late 19th century, tomb robbers 381 00:22:23,233 --> 00:22:24,969 Searching along the magdalena river 382 00:22:24,992 --> 00:22:28,586 Stumbled upon a gravesite dating back 1,500 years 383 00:22:28,739 --> 00:22:33,494 To a pre-colombian civilization known as the tolima. 384 00:22:33,519 --> 00:22:36,260 Among the funerary objects found there 385 00:22:36,413 --> 00:22:40,191 Were hundreds of small two to three-inch gold figurines. 386 00:22:40,342 --> 00:22:44,173 So the tolima culture placed inside tombs little tiny 387 00:22:44,197 --> 00:22:46,842 Objects made of gold, and they found hundreds of thousands 388 00:22:46,865 --> 00:22:50,420 Of those in the form of different animals: 389 00:22:50,443 --> 00:22:55,780 Birds, fish, frogs, insects. 390 00:22:55,875 --> 00:22:58,854 However, out of these hundreds of thousands, 391 00:22:58,877 --> 00:23:03,047 There were 17 that looked like modern-day airplanes. 392 00:23:05,384 --> 00:23:08,126 They have a triangular shape, 393 00:23:08,278 --> 00:23:11,963 They have an upright tail fin, 394 00:23:12,115 --> 00:23:14,799 Stabilizers, 395 00:23:14,894 --> 00:23:18,061 And a fuselage. 396 00:23:18,288 --> 00:23:21,306 And they have nothing in common with 397 00:23:21,459 --> 00:23:24,402 Anything similar in nature. 398 00:23:28,465 --> 00:23:31,557 In 1997, german aviation experts, 399 00:23:31,652 --> 00:23:33,652 Including algund eenboom, 400 00:23:33,746 --> 00:23:35,723 Set out to test the gold flyer's flight capabilities 401 00:23:35,748 --> 00:23:39,324 By building a scale-model replica, 402 00:23:39,419 --> 00:23:42,730 Fully equipped with landing gear and a worKing engine. 403 00:23:42,755 --> 00:23:46,239 It was rather simple because we don't need 404 00:23:46,333 --> 00:23:49,738 To put much parts to this shape 405 00:23:49,761 --> 00:23:52,315 Because this shape is perfect. 406 00:23:52,338 --> 00:23:56,008 Everything was already done by the native people 407 00:23:56,102 --> 00:23:59,177 2,000 years ago. 408 00:23:59,271 --> 00:24:01,271 Once completed, the remote-controlled flyer 409 00:24:01,499 --> 00:24:04,275 Took off down a makeshift runway, and flew. 410 00:24:10,115 --> 00:24:11,926 When you see this thing taKing off, 411 00:24:11,951 --> 00:24:14,617 You really feel that this is the real deal. 412 00:24:16,846 --> 00:24:18,933 It was a very successful test, 413 00:24:18,958 --> 00:24:25,278 And showed us how perfect ancient people were worKing out 414 00:24:25,372 --> 00:24:27,942 Aerodynamic design. 415 00:24:27,967 --> 00:24:32,376 What shows you that there must be something happened. 416 00:24:32,471 --> 00:24:37,118 We are not quite sure how it did, but that it did. 417 00:24:37,143 --> 00:24:38,694 This is applied science. 418 00:24:38,719 --> 00:24:40,605 This isn't just thinKing somewhere. 419 00:24:40,628 --> 00:24:44,534 This is people going out there and maKing sure and proving 420 00:24:44,557 --> 00:24:47,151 What I still see... Anybody can see this... 421 00:24:47,301 --> 00:24:49,131 That this is real, this is genuine. 422 00:24:49,154 --> 00:24:52,490 This little thing, which sits in a museum, could fly. 423 00:25:01,316 --> 00:25:06,647 In 2017, I flew to romania with Erich Von Daniken to check out 424 00:25:06,672 --> 00:25:09,151 One of the most remarkable artifacts 425 00:25:09,174 --> 00:25:10,652 We had ever heard of. 426 00:25:10,675 --> 00:25:13,989 An aluminum object said to be at least 40,000 years old. 427 00:25:14,012 --> 00:25:17,159 And even more extraordinary is that it was scientifically 428 00:25:17,182 --> 00:25:21,352 Tested and found to have been made from an aluminum alloy 429 00:25:21,502 --> 00:25:25,763 That doesn't match anything humans have ever manufactured. 430 00:25:27,009 --> 00:25:31,269 Number three on my countdown of the top ten alien artifacts 431 00:25:31,364 --> 00:25:33,197 Is the wedge of aiud. 432 00:25:43,784 --> 00:25:46,451 1970. 433 00:25:46,546 --> 00:25:49,788 Workers digging a trench along the banks of the mures river 434 00:25:49,882 --> 00:25:52,193 Unearth two giant bones, 435 00:25:52,218 --> 00:25:55,719 And with them, a mysterious metal object 436 00:25:55,871 --> 00:25:59,298 Buried 35 feet beneath the surface. 437 00:25:59,392 --> 00:26:03,894 This strange object, known today as the wedge of aiud, 438 00:26:04,121 --> 00:26:06,637 Is an aluminum alloy that appears to have been made 439 00:26:06,790 --> 00:26:09,400 Thousands of years before humans were able to smelt 440 00:26:09,550 --> 00:26:11,402 Or fabricate metal. 441 00:26:12,813 --> 00:26:18,150 It was ten meters in depth, associated with some bones, 442 00:26:18,243 --> 00:26:21,636 Which they later identified as woolly mammoth bones. 443 00:26:21,730 --> 00:26:24,393 They were extinct 40,000 years ago, 444 00:26:24,416 --> 00:26:27,470 So they must be older than that. 445 00:26:27,493 --> 00:26:31,900 The wedge was analyzed three times, to my knowledge. 446 00:26:31,923 --> 00:26:36,313 The main metal in its composition is aluminum. 447 00:26:36,336 --> 00:26:39,412 Humans didn't really start worKing with aluminum 448 00:26:39,506 --> 00:26:40,823 Until well into the 1800s. 449 00:26:40,915 --> 00:26:44,159 So when you look at this wedge and you analyze it, 450 00:26:44,251 --> 00:26:46,662 It really has most of the modern properties 451 00:26:46,755 --> 00:26:48,595 We would associate with aluminum. 452 00:26:50,609 --> 00:26:53,611 For decades, government officials refused to reveal 453 00:26:53,837 --> 00:26:56,520 Where the wedge of aiud was being held. 454 00:26:56,673 --> 00:27:00,025 But its location has recently come to light. 455 00:27:00,176 --> 00:27:04,195 On January 18, 2017, 456 00:27:04,347 --> 00:27:05,842 At the national history museum 457 00:27:05,865 --> 00:27:08,845 Of Transylvania, ancient astronaut theorists 458 00:27:08,868 --> 00:27:11,869 Giorgio Tsoukalos and Erich Von Daniken 459 00:27:11,963 --> 00:27:14,798 Were offered a rare opportunity to get a firsthand look 460 00:27:14,950 --> 00:27:17,800 At the wedge of aiud. 461 00:27:17,952 --> 00:27:20,690 Museum curator ana gruia 462 00:27:20,713 --> 00:27:22,099 Has taken it out of a storage locker 463 00:27:22,124 --> 00:27:24,102 Where it has been deliberately hidden 464 00:27:24,125 --> 00:27:27,102 From the public since the early 1970s. 465 00:27:29,631 --> 00:27:32,039 Okay, I'm just gonna put my gloves on. 466 00:27:32,134 --> 00:27:33,651 This is great. 467 00:27:36,730 --> 00:27:38,540 So, this is it. 468 00:27:38,565 --> 00:27:40,140 Okay. 469 00:27:40,233 --> 00:27:42,326 This is strange. 470 00:27:44,997 --> 00:27:47,717 And here, this is the... Where they took the sample out, 471 00:27:47,740 --> 00:27:49,666 And here, to make the analysis. 472 00:27:49,817 --> 00:27:52,480 And here you see two pieces that are broken off, sort of. 473 00:27:52,505 --> 00:27:56,414 So maybe it was attached or something. 474 00:27:56,509 --> 00:27:58,083 But very strange. 475 00:27:58,234 --> 00:28:00,489 So what does the museum have to say about this? 476 00:28:00,512 --> 00:28:03,422 This is a very strange piece. 477 00:28:03,574 --> 00:28:06,236 It is. It is a strange piece for us as well. 478 00:28:06,259 --> 00:28:09,405 As historians, we do not consider it 479 00:28:09,430 --> 00:28:12,166 A historical object that we're used to. 480 00:28:12,191 --> 00:28:15,599 We don't know what it was used for, and we 481 00:28:15,694 --> 00:28:19,587 Acknowledge these uncertainties about its dating, 482 00:28:19,681 --> 00:28:21,417 And its composition as well. 483 00:28:21,442 --> 00:28:23,366 So we have a real mystery here. 484 00:28:23,594 --> 00:28:28,855 But you see this patina over this whole object? 485 00:28:28,949 --> 00:28:30,352 And this creates another problem. 486 00:28:30,375 --> 00:28:33,930 Yes.
