From the producers of Ancient Aliens and The Curse of Oak Island comes The UnXplained, a one-hour, non-fiction series that explores the world's most fascinating, strange and inexplicable mysteries. Hosted and executive produced by Golden Globe and Emmy Award-winning actor William Shatner (Star Trek, Boston Legal) each episode will feature compelling contributions from scientists, historians, witnesses and experiencers-each seeking to shed light on how the seemingly impossible actually can happen.

Full skeleton just appears laid out just perfectly on the surface of the ground with no grass growing between the bones for all to see. Almost too perfectly, no meat on bones, no scavengers drug hunks of meat with bones off to eat. Just amazing, I wonder if there was a wonton cart nearby selling food to the onlookers?

[jeremybenoit]

For a dragon to achieve flight like the legends say, it seems logical it would need to have hollow brittle bones like a bird, and so it seems logical that like most birds these bones would not last for us to find.

History and reality becomes legends and myths when time passes .

I don’t think there’s any chance that the dragon picture is real but it’s interesting that ancient cultures from all around the world have tales about dragons

[stevelindsay]

THEY WERE ABSOLUTELY REAL. WRITTEN ABOUT IN EVERY CULTURE AND EVERY AGE. IT'S ONLY BEEN THE LAST 100 YEARS THEY HAVE BEEN TURNED INTO FANTASY.

[So.avant.garde]

I think it’s very possible that dragons existed at large scale. There’s always at least a bit of truth in every folklore or stories told..
Thanks for sharing this. It’s very interesting for sure.

[TheTonester]

I think some people really feel we've actually discovered everything the earth has to offer. We haven't.

[h-dawg]

I know a buddy who worked for the FBI and he said they have bones like dragons at the Smithsonian. I thought he was joking but he says they have giants, dragons and many other things that he said “ people aren’t ready to see.”

[JonnoPlays]

This episode was all over the place, but you know what I'm here for it.

[pbc_]

If dragons could fly, then it would be safe to assume that had a skeletal structure similar to birds. Not hollow, but light and spongy which would decrease weight allowing for flight. It would also make sense that the bones have never or rarely been found because bones from birds disintegrate because of its spongy hollow nature.

[TefenCa]

Dragons or just the dinosaurs that had managed to survive extinction events just like crocodiles? Just because they are all dead now doesn't mean they were not still alive 1, 000+ years ago. Tons of creatures have gone extinct even in modern times like the Tasmanian Tiger.

[robertspencer]

The word dinosaur is relatively recent, before the 1850s they were referred to as dragons. Funny when people forget basic knowledge and very sad.

[BudaKhan]

2:00 the most fascinating part of the story

[RissaFirecat]

With as many dragon stories as exist in the world independently of every other part of the world, there has to be some truth to the tales!

[trendthis]

SPOILERS: Dragons are basically dinosaurs lol

[cuttersgoose]

It’s amazing how a simple farmer was able to lay out all the bones perfectly in a grassy field real quick to show everyone..and both antlers were perfectly in tack... not to mention a complete lower jaw bone, which 99% of the time is missing

[bewaretheLamb]

The word “dinosaur” was invented in 1841. They were known as dragons before this.

[silvers]

Some people who did Ayahuasca in the amazonian jungles and perhaps elsewhere in the world experienced dragons in their visions, there's even a man a shaman who calls himself The Dragon and he is said to have encountered a dragon during a trip and eventually defeated/befriended it. If one would have tamed the dragon, it would mean that he is spiritually very powerful and wise. The shaman looks very calm but in his presence you feel his great power and wisdom. I believe dragons do exist but in other dimensions all around us but that we as humans cannot perceive unless under the influence of psychedelic drugs or deep meditation. It may well be that in earlier times the veil was thinner and people still had glimpses of wondrous beings and divine events.

They were often used as symbols or given as names for people of high rank or intelligence and power.
One thing I know, the ancients knew more... but the word of Ayahuasca is spreading and soon many will know of the ''real world''. Only experiencers will know. Because you know, seeing is believing. Although I myself have always kept my mind open for what's beyond and have always believed in strange worlds and creatures we can't directly perceive.

''A child’s world is fresh and new and beautiful, full or wonder and excitement. It is our misfortune that for most of us that clear-eyed vision, that true instinct for what is beautiful and awe-inspiring, is dimmed and even lost before we reach adulthood. If I had influence with the good fairy who is supposed to preside over the christening of all children, I should ask that her gift to each child in the world be a sense of wonder so indestructible that it would last throughout life, as an unfailing antidote against the boredom and disenchantment of later year…the alienation from the sources of our strength.''

And who knows, in the earliest stage of man there were still flying dinosaurs beside birds that managed to escape the end of their era, until early man wiped them out. They may indeed have been very similar to the Pterosaurs (possibly an ancestor) but have mutated due to the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event in how we see them in, for example, Medieval European and Ancient Chinese images. Who knows what else is crawling around in the deepest recesses of the world. We have not yet seen everything of this planet. Who knows what is yet to be revealed!

[selador]

Yup. Very common for dragon skeletons to be found laying, complete and in order, in grassy fields....

[hyrumbliss]

Of course dragons existed, they're called "dinosaurs"
