I always like the part where Ancient Astronaut Theorists say _"Yes"_

[michaelgermanovsky]

I met Sitchin. He was a very sweet guy and a serious professional regarding ancient aliens theory.

[charleswest]

Glad for this show. Educate people about what we were centuries ago. And our future if we avoid wars.

[joseenriquemunar]

i believe that humans back then are more intelligent that we think they are. I feel like they do things base on what they need and believe, thats why we are still thriving today.

[Chevyno]

Makes sense to use language common people understand. We do it today - using 'lamens' terms so the average person can understand. To take 'Thunderbirds' literally as a basis to discredit the alien possibility being ignorant.

[binskialamo]

Except these guys are way beyond rocket ships. Even the Sumerian winged star of Ishtar represents the Galactic Federation and it's main technology, anti-grav based fusion. Although it looks like the farafavar, that was only invented millenia later under zoroastrianism and is a copy cat symbol. That movement may have been helped by other parties within the GF.

[vmwindustries]

He really puts it all out there. Landing place, thunder birds, and gods come out of it, as go back in it, and take off again in their thunder bird. If not anything, it's very interesting, and does sound like modern technologies. The giant stones, could be just cut like that to look like they are smarter then they are? Did they do that to make people outside think they are super smart? Or are the stones not from there? I have so many questions.

[kennyrodriguez]

Then why these days the ships make no sound and defy gravity with no motors or such advance engineering .

[arpitbhaskar]

This show is so ridiculous but I still love it at one point you just watch it for the weirdness 😂😂

[richardjohnson]

i would tend to agree, massive stones dont move themselves, and definitely are not moved "by hand", My thought is that specially designed giant airships did the heavy lifting and transport.

[igivethanksandpraise]

Mankind have 0 clue when it comes to what's really going on around us from ancient times to this day

[rackroll]

I'm not saying it was aliens, but it was aliens.

[LdotMillward]

I like watching ancient aliens, but take everything on there with a piece of salt

[franckmt]

intéressant, bonne continuation History

[charlesdaniel]

Ancient Astronaut Theorists ..say Yes ..
They be outta job if she say no...!

[mariadaluzmoutinho]

No início da civilização ...ao fim da Suméria, faz questionar o seguinte: todas as civilizações que desapareceram tiveram Extraterrestres a ajudar ao desaparecimento?! Que Extraterrestres estão a ajudar a nossa civilização a desaparecer?!

[BlenderStudy]

That giant winged being looks like the Mothman. Also, there was a flying witch filmed in Mexico some time ago, and the eyewitnesses claimed she had giant chicken legs. Ereshkigal, of the ancient Mesopotamian mythology was a bird legged female deity, and around her there are sculptures of beings who resemble the Mothman.

[jimmyguitar]

I'm old enough to remember when the History Channel used to show documentaries on actual, you know, HISTORY.

Yeah, I'm old.

[Aniketbabar]

I wonder how the ancient people put such heavy stones

[adrianbacanu]

The civilization of the fallen angels...
