"Ancient Aliens" explores the controversial theory that extraterrestrials have visited Earth for millions of years.

"Extra-T E R R E S T I A L beings"

The narrator's cadence in saying it 😁

Great video,   have always known there’s more to life than meets the eye, I feel like in this life i am supposed to be doing more than i am doing for the people i love. been seeking for an eye opening enlightenment, a way to be more influential, powerful and protected.~

I want compensation for the damage this did to my brain

[MiThreeSunz]

Nothing is beyond the realm of possibility.

What I think needs to happen is that we need to establish a base on Mars with several archaeological teams. We should open up some archaeological dig sites looking for fossils or any type of remains of what used to live there. I bet what we would find would be extremely interesting and in some cases shocking.

First time hearing this theory. Very interesting.

History channel is fascinating and interesting. ❤👍

I've always known this... my Grandpa knew this too.

How would they explain how our heartbeat and blood circulation is regulated by Earth's gravity? Nasa stated a few times that this is one of the main setbacks on humans going to Mars.

This should be called 'The Hysterical Channel'.

Is the Bible possibly not that wrong? Humans maybe did not evolve from apes.

*I don’t always watch the History channel, but when I do, it turns out to be a sci-fi show!*

When my niece Catlin was 6 years old, she was convinced that the city of Las Vegas was located on the planet Mars.

When you look at Olympus Mons the top of the cliffs edge/bottom of the sheild is where the actual surface used to be I think. Some cataclysm happened whether it was caused by the inhabitants or some galactic event, the atmosphere and surface of Mars was pealed off like the skin on a orange....

Theories quite compelling... With the improvements on space explorations in the coming future, we may find solid answers to queries of our origin.

[kevinpirie]

I heard about a child who said in a past life he lived on Mars
He said at the time that someone will find something under the sphinx in Egypt
Well …..guess what folks! They just found something hidden beneath the sphinx
So think about that for a minute

Theory. Temples and churches are built to resemble space/rocket ships.
Spiritual we go to church/temple to ascend to heaven. What if physical we go to spaceships(temples/church) to travel into outerspace.

In a World where many animals hit the ground running it is perplexing about how slow humans develop.

[wolvie]

0:20 here's why we are built like this.
1. We have slower development as children because we have larger brains. We need more time to grow compared to other animals. Also humans, in comparison, are born at a much more vulnerable stage, we have to be born sooner than would seem logical because the head of the baby would get too large to safely pass through the mother during birth. Humans have evolved narrower hips to be able to walk upright, if we kept the wider hips of other primates, we wouldn't be able to walk upright as efficiently as we do.
2. We get more sick due to our diet change. Early human ancestors ate a plant based diet, and when we started eating meat as well, it exposed us to more bacteria and parasites that we normally wouldn't have. Also, we have better odds of surviving diseases than animals, if an animal gets sick in the wild, it gets taken out by a predator or dies of the disease. But humans have medicine and can rely on others to care for them, so our chances of surviving, and thusly the possibility of getting sick again, is much higher.
3. Our spine originally was meant for moving about on all fours, it was straight, like other animals. When we started walking upright, that forced our spine to curve in three places, which it was not designed to do. Hence the back pain.
4. Yet again, narrow hips. You are basically forcing a bowling ball through small space. Also the position that women tend to give birth in nowadays is on their back, instead of in a squat like they used to. In a squatting form, it opens the pelvis more and allows more force to be applied when pushing. Gravity also helps. The on the back birth position originated from some weird king that liked to watch women give birth, but it's not how we were meant to give birth.

Basically, those four problems are not because "we come from Mars" but rather evolutionary compromises and weird cultural practices.

Interesting and thought provoking theory
