I be high asf trying to solve these world mysteries

[Reifenstal]

when i was a kid, i read this old book in my great grandfather's library that Antarctica were once a tropical land and the moon was rotating from north pole to south pole, and there's even drawings of pyramid structures. if only i have kept that book.

[jovantaacon]

If I would have given a chance to see the past, building the pyramids is definitely on top of my list.

[thes.a.s.s.]

Snow covered pyramid shape in Antarctica, I believe geologists would call that a MOUNTAIN.

When Google Earth 1st came out I would go over and over Antarcticas surface. 3 things stood out. The triangle shaped entrance to a cave. A round disc embedded into rock and a rectangular object under the ice that glowed. No one has touched on those.

The fact that ancient civilizations knew about Antarctica, while "we" discovered it in the late 1800 is weird enough.

[muhammadumair]

What if we are the extra terrestrials on earth and wiped out those who lived before us.

I love these types of videos. Thank you History!!

[lazostsakpounidis]

I feel like I am losing my brain cells after watching this video

[khangle]

AM I the only one who's getting some Alien vs Predator vibe here ?

[ashOB_]

Can we just give God some props for making nature so beautiful?

[Parvultraobtusa]

Just send some flat earthers over there, they will find more pyramids and also some new continents for you..

Do more research. Before the continents split, Antarctica wasn't in the south pole. It was situated nearer the equator than its current position. That's why you can find dead shellfish and plant matter when chunks of ice collapse and expose those perfectly preserved organisms.

There are 100's of pyramids in the Philippines waiting to be excavated called the chocolate hills

Three points I wish had been mentioned: 1) That five hundred year-old map might have been showing Antarctica before the Younger Dryas event, which was a comet impacting earth about 13800 years ago. Apparently, the comet broke up and large parts impacted in several places around the world. It hugely changed the world we live in. 2) Glaciers in Antarctica move, maybe as fast as one kilometer per year. In 13000 years, that would scrap clean from the land almost all remnants of ancient cities. 3) The location of the North Pole, and South Pole, changes. I viewed a You Tube video years ago that stated that the North Pole before the Younger Dryas event was located in the middle of the lower third of the main part of Alaska. Because of the comet impacts, the North Pole moved from Alaska to about where it is today. Maybe a part of today's Antarctica in more than 1500 mile closer to the South Pole, so part of Antarctica might have had weather comparable to the coast of Norway today.

I used to watch these back in the day and was interested in it but some reason everytime it would knock me out but I'd wake up 2 hrs later and it would still be playing

If you can watch this show and still believe anything that the HISTORY Channel produces, then you are truly "special."
