Thanks so much for having me on! This was so much fun, and I appreciate what you are doing so much! This video is amazing, detailed, and so info-packed! Keep it up :D

[miniminuteman]

Excellent video! Just started digging into this topic for my piece on Ancient Apocalypse S.2. Really well done and comprehensive work here. I will certainly be referring people to this video

[MoonlightVenator]

Couldn't have dreamt of a better treatment than a 2 and half hour long video from Dr. Miano

[AncientAmericas]

This was so wonderful and informative! Really appreciate you putting all the work into this and getting different experts to speak about the YDIH.

How with so many views does this video have so few likes. I watch a lot of what you would call 'debunk' videos. Most with quite good content creators and I don't think I have seen one this good. I really appreciate the work you put into this. You are what Rogan needs.

[noahkujawski]

Commenting to hopefully boost this. Always appreciate the huge work you do and this is right up my alley

Doc, 2 and a half hours is incredible

This is immediately going in the playlist that i draw while listening to

[jacksilver]

This guy Miano puts an incredible amount of work in to bring us this content …..we should all appreciate that and help him do his thing by liking and subscribing…❤

What a treat! By the way, isn’t it odd that the only society/culture that was destroyed, happened to be the most advanced AND spread knowledge all over the world but ALSO destroyed all evidence of said culture?!

[brendan]

This is the video I’ve been waiting for! Thanks for dipping out of your area of expertise to cover this.

The younger dryas always need to be framed in an appropriate context.
It is only when taken our of this context that it can be framed as an "apocalypse"
Excellent work Dr.Miano

I love these myth series. Thank you for such a long and informative doc, I love the interviews from various experts. There isn’t too many places where you get that, and certainly not interviewed by someone else who has the expertise to know what to ask.
Fantastic job 👏👏👏

I swear this man reads my mind. Really wanted to learn about this "Younger Dryas" topic but wanted to learn about it from a familiar face. Couldn't find it anywhere... Glad he's made this video now.

I love you/your online presence. Even your advertising is just, different. Thanks for what you do! I'm a stay at home mom with a huge appetite for learning and deep fascination in history & archeology. Ive come from the slums of childhood drug addiction to where I am now and genuinely- learning/self education has gotten me so far. People like you who put their lectures online for free are crucial and graceful for me. Thanks!

Fantastic video. Thought I’d have to watch it in parts, but I got absorbed and blew through the whole thing. 😂

Stefan Milo's video about the Younger Dryas made me snap out of taking Graham Hancock and the likes seriously.

[Graystaff]

In ancient times, an advanced civilization had these advanced, precise machines that they used to make boxes and vases… and nothing else.

PhD Geologist/Geophysicist here. Graham Hancock and Randall Carlson once again, show their ignorance about geology. Geologists have no "vested interest" in slow, gradual processes, and Uniformitarianism does NOT describe this, but rather, it states that the processes we see operating at present occurred throughout the past. Hancock's and Carlson's statements imply that Geologists are not aware of floods, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, landslides, tsunamis, etc. At least take a Geology course you guys.

"Scientists should never be absolute"
That is a profound statement that the general public, and especially journalists need to learn. Far too often they try to get absolute answers from scientists, and when the scientist nuances his answers that is taken as giving credence to absolute idiots spouting very definite garbage.

It destroyed all evidence of Atlantis on psychedelics but flint handaxes were made of Invincibilium
