1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,540
Ancient cities lost for centuries.

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,080
Dozens of people have risked their lives trying

3
00:00:07,180 --> 00:00:10,620
to find where Petiti is.

4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:13,920
Treasures hidden deep underwater.

5
00:00:14,020 --> 00:00:17,220
The local people told me not simply that the ships fly

6
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,060
over the lake, but they actually entered the lake

7
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:26,160
and secret chambers buried under the great Egyptian Sphinx.

8
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:30,500
Gold was the flesh of the gods.

9
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,840
Egypt had probably the best supply of gold anywhere

10
00:00:34,940 --> 00:00:36,140
in the ancient world.

11
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,480
Since the dawn of time, humans have been obsessed

12
00:00:39,580 --> 00:00:42,580
with legends of hidden gold.

13
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,580
But what if our desire for this precious metal

14
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,980
is about something more than riches?

15
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,280
It almost seems as if we're genetically programmed

16
00:00:50,380 --> 00:00:51,560
to love gold.

17
00:00:51,660 --> 00:00:55,360
Ultimately, gold represents our connection with the stars.

18
00:00:55,620 --> 00:00:58,060
A number of researchers have suggested

19
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:03,500
ancient aliens have come to Earth primarily to mine gold.

20
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,040
Millions of people around the world

21
00:01:06,140 --> 00:01:08,700
believe we have been visited in the past

22
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,980
by extraterrestrial beings.

23
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,940
What if it were true?

24
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:19,480
Did ancient aliens really help to shape our history?

25
00:01:19,580 --> 00:01:25,260
And if so, might they have come here in search of the truth?

26
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:26,620
All of the pieces in here are whirling in the hands

27
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,660
of gold.

28
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,000
The clear ground, a land of bonds,

29
00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:34,160
they're celebrating the balance myself in this world.

30
00:01:34,260 --> 00:01:35,840
They are taking back their floating worries

31
00:01:35,940 --> 00:01:37,940
of gold.

32
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,200
Well, I want to help others.

33
00:01:40,300 --> 00:01:43,980
Let's do this.

34
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,380
What are the stakes?

35
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,380
We are called pas.

36
00:01:52,380 --> 00:01:57,380
Lake Guadalvita, Colombia.

37
00:01:57,380 --> 00:02:01,380
Believed to be the site of an ancient meteor crater,

38
00:02:01,380 --> 00:02:05,380
this circular-shaped mountain lake is at the center

39
00:02:05,380 --> 00:02:08,380
of one of mankind's greatest searches.

40
00:02:10,380 --> 00:02:15,380
The search for El Dorado, the lost city of gold.

41
00:02:15,380 --> 00:02:17,380
The search for El Dorado,

42
00:02:17,380 --> 00:02:20,380
the lost city of gold.

43
00:02:21,380 --> 00:02:26,380
Since the 16th century, El Dorado has been the holy grail

44
00:02:26,380 --> 00:02:28,380
for fortune hunters.

45
00:02:28,380 --> 00:02:31,380
Legends abound about a place full of untold riches

46
00:02:31,380 --> 00:02:34,380
somewhere in South America.

47
00:02:34,380 --> 00:02:39,380
Yet to this day, the mythical city remains undiscovered.

48
00:02:40,380 --> 00:02:44,380
But if such a magnificent place does exist,

49
00:02:44,380 --> 00:02:48,380
how has it eluded explorers for centuries?

50
00:02:49,380 --> 00:02:54,380
Some believe the answer lies within this mysterious lake.

51
00:02:57,380 --> 00:03:02,380
The story of El Dorado developed from the lake Guadalvita

52
00:03:02,380 --> 00:03:06,380
that was within the territory of the Muisca

53
00:03:06,380 --> 00:03:10,380
or the Chibcha people, which was a chieftain.

54
00:03:10,380 --> 00:03:14,380
Not quite as high civilization as the Incas or as the Aztecs,

55
00:03:14,380 --> 00:03:20,380
but a chieftain with civilization itself that had a lot of gold.

56
00:03:24,380 --> 00:03:27,380
The ruler in the southern half of the Muisca territory

57
00:03:27,380 --> 00:03:29,380
was known as the Zippa,

58
00:03:29,380 --> 00:03:33,380
but the conquistadors who arrived there in the 16th century

59
00:03:33,380 --> 00:03:38,380
called him El Dorado, Spanish for the golden one.

60
00:03:39,380 --> 00:03:44,380
They gave him this name after observing the Muisca's most sacred ritual.

61
00:03:44,380 --> 00:03:49,380
The Zippa would float out on a royal barge to the middle of Lake Guadalvita

62
00:03:49,380 --> 00:03:55,380
to make offerings of gold to a god believed to live at the bottom of the lake.

63
00:03:55,380 --> 00:04:02,380
It was said that the chief adorned with resin and then adorned with gold dust

64
00:04:02,380 --> 00:04:07,380
would jump into the water and then jump into the water.

65
00:04:08,380 --> 00:04:14,380
In order to wash the gold dust off and that this gold would accumulate in that lake

66
00:04:14,380 --> 00:04:20,380
and that golden objects and sacrifices would be thrown into that particular lake.

67
00:04:20,380 --> 00:04:25,380
And from that came the belief of El Dorado around Colombia.

68
00:04:25,380 --> 00:04:43,380
In 1912, an excavation of Lake Guadalvita was led by British engineer Hartley Knowles.

69
00:04:43,380 --> 00:04:48,380
Knowles reported that he had recovered around $20,000 worth of treasure,

70
00:04:48,380 --> 00:04:52,380
including golden artifacts.

71
00:04:52,380 --> 00:04:57,380
But he also believed much more lay beneath the hardened lake bed.

72
00:04:57,380 --> 00:05:04,380
Could Knowles find the evidence that the story of the Muisca chief is based on truth?

73
00:05:04,380 --> 00:05:12,380
If so, just who or what was the so-called god who dwelled at the bottom of the lake?

74
00:05:12,380 --> 00:05:20,380
A number of researchers have suggested that ancient aliens have come to earth primarily to mine gold.

75
00:05:20,380 --> 00:05:25,380
Zechariah Citjens suggested that these extraterrestrials needed gold

76
00:05:25,380 --> 00:05:32,380
to suspend in their atmosphere and preserve their planet.

77
00:05:32,380 --> 00:05:36,380
Is gold something that's really important to space exploration and to astronomy?

78
00:05:36,380 --> 00:05:42,380
Well, it actually is very important and the reason why is because gold is an inert material.

79
00:05:42,380 --> 00:05:44,380
It doesn't react with anything.

80
00:05:44,380 --> 00:05:50,380
The other thing that's very important about it is that it is a wonderful conductor of electricity.

81
00:05:50,380 --> 00:05:57,380
And last but not least is the fact that gold is a perfect reflector of infrared energy.

82
00:05:57,380 --> 00:06:07,380
You can use gold blankets to protect spacecraft against the intense heat of a star or any sort of heat source.

83
00:06:07,380 --> 00:06:13,380
Gold is a very rare and valuable element throughout the universe.

84
00:06:15,380 --> 00:06:23,380
Aliens coming to earth searching for gold could such a thing be possible?

85
00:06:23,380 --> 00:06:36,380
According to ancient astronaut theorists, it is not only possible, but they claim the proof exists in the numerous texts and legends of the ancient world.

86
00:06:36,380 --> 00:06:47,380
Like that of the legendary Incan city of Paititi, thought to be located near the southeastern area of Peru.

87
00:06:47,380 --> 00:06:57,380
The conquistadors became obsessed with finding this mysterious city of gold that they've heard was in the jungles of eastern Peru somewhere.

88
00:06:57,380 --> 00:07:01,380
They called it Paititi, the golden city.

89
00:07:01,380 --> 00:07:09,380
Stories of Paititi and El Dorado ultimately led to the exploration of the Amazon jungles.

90
00:07:09,380 --> 00:07:14,380
El Dorado and Paititi are frequently confused.

91
00:07:14,380 --> 00:07:22,380
I see El Dorado as being that particular gold producing site that was in northern South America.

92
00:07:22,380 --> 00:07:33,380
And Paititi having been another civilization contemporaneous with the Incas in the area of Peru, Bolivia, that is yet to be definitively found.

93
00:07:33,380 --> 00:07:39,380
And that's what part of my quest has been over these last 25 years.

94
00:07:40,380 --> 00:08:00,380
Since 1984, American explorer Gregory Diamandian and his Peruvian counterpart Paulino Mamani have staged more than 15 expeditions in search of this mythical city of gold.

95
00:08:00,380 --> 00:08:08,380
There is an Incan road of stone leading towards what is supposed to be as legend would have it Paititi. That's what we've been following.

96
00:08:08,380 --> 00:08:19,380
They say that Pachamama, the earth goddess, covers these areas with such difficulty. The moss, the jungle, the rivers that some things could be hidden there forever.

97
00:08:20,380 --> 00:08:30,380
Their search began in Cusco at the Incan holy place of Corricancia, which means golden courtyard.

98
00:08:32,380 --> 00:08:48,380
In 1559, Spanish conquistadors tore down Corricancia to construct the Cathedral of Santo Domingo and it still sits in the center of Cusco today, surrounded by the ruins of the ancient Incan temple.

99
00:08:49,380 --> 00:08:53,380
The cathedral features an enormous altar covered in gold.

100
00:08:56,380 --> 00:09:10,380
But according to the records of the conquistadors, it pales in comparison to the magnificent Corricancia, which was not only filled with gold statues, but was also covered in sheets of solid gold.

101
00:09:11,380 --> 00:09:25,380
Gold was important to the Inca because it was the sweat of the sun. The sun was the highest deity of the Inca and therefore the sweat of the sun represented the most sacred possession imaginable.

102
00:09:26,380 --> 00:09:40,380
Ancient astronaut theorists believe a golden sun idol called the Ponchow that once resided in Corricancia may provide evidence that extraterrestrials had contact with the Inca.

103
00:09:40,380 --> 00:10:04,380
Corricancia was famous for its gigantic golden disc that the ancient Inca worshipped. That was a symbol of a giant golden disc that allegedly landed from the sky in front of the Inca ruler Atahualpa.

104
00:10:05,380 --> 00:10:11,380
And he had direct contact, according to legends, with the sky gods.

105
00:10:14,380 --> 00:10:22,380
Could the giant golden disc that once resided inside Corricancia have been made to honor an alien visitor?

106
00:10:23,380 --> 00:10:34,380
And if extraterrestrials did come to mine gold, might this also provide evidence that Paititi is nearby?

107
00:10:35,380 --> 00:10:57,380
In 1533, the Spanish overtook the city of Cusco and plundered the temple of Corricancia in search of Incan gold. But according to local legend, the gold had already been moved 20 miles northwest of the city and deposited at the bottom of a nearby lake.

108
00:10:58,380 --> 00:11:09,380
Before the entire group of Spanish were able to get into Cusco, the priests found out about it and they had all of the gold from all of the temples brought up to Lake Paray and thrown into the center.

109
00:11:11,380 --> 00:11:18,380
None of it has been found to this day. The amount of gold at today's prices would be in the billions.

110
00:11:19,380 --> 00:11:33,380
Perhaps even more mysterious are the frequent reports of unusual sightings in the skies over the area. Sightings that have been reported for hundreds of years.

111
00:11:34,380 --> 00:11:44,380
The local people of this area have told me not simply that the ships fly over the lake, but they actually enter the lake.

112
00:11:44,380 --> 00:11:52,380
The stories go that there's a little vortex that opens up just about the size of the spaceship, perhaps 20 feet across.

113
00:11:52,380 --> 00:12:00,380
The spaceship enters the lake, the vortex closes. Later, the vortex opens and the ship leaves again.

114
00:12:04,380 --> 00:12:19,380
If, as the local inhabitants claim, strange, possibly alien spacecraft really do come to this area, might there be a connection to the visitations and the legends of gold hidden at the bottom of Lake Paray?

115
00:12:20,380 --> 00:12:26,380
Dozens of people have risked their lives, in some cases actually have died trying to find where Petiti is.

116
00:12:26,380 --> 00:12:35,380
You have the standard treasure hunt who just goes to it for the monetary value. You have certain people who go to it because they know that their name will be immortalized forever after.

117
00:12:35,380 --> 00:12:44,380
But you also have people who go in search of this because they know that if you find the treasure, you will literally prove that a legend is factual.

118
00:12:45,380 --> 00:13:02,380
Perhaps the greater mystery is not if or where the mythical cities of El Dorado and Petiti may be discovered, but what might be revealed once they are found?

119
00:13:03,380 --> 00:13:15,380
Tokyo Imperial University, March 1924

120
00:13:15,380 --> 00:13:31,380
In an early experiment with nuclear energy, Professor Hontaro Nagaoka directs 150,000 volts of electricity at a mercury isotope under a dielectric layer of paraffin oil for four hours.

121
00:13:32,380 --> 00:13:41,380
The purpose? To strike out a hydrogen proton from the nucleus of the mercury and produce a new element.

122
00:13:41,380 --> 00:13:57,380
Gold. The experiment is a success. Professor Nagaoka has solved a mystery that has eluded scientists for centuries. The mystery of the Philosopher's Stone.

123
00:13:58,380 --> 00:14:16,380
The Philosopher's Stone was an idea that you could have a magic kind of material that would turn lead or some very inexpensive metal into gold. The thought that one could do that is attractive in and of itself.

124
00:14:17,380 --> 00:14:31,380
For thousands of years, King sought out this mythical device. One that could create gold out of common metal. Scientists and alchemists spent centuries trying to invent one.

125
00:14:32,380 --> 00:14:47,380
Even Sir Isaac Newton obsessed over the mystery of the Philosopher's Stone in the 17th century. Although the English crown, fearing the potential devaluation of gold, had made the practice of alchemy punishable by death.

126
00:14:48,380 --> 00:15:11,380
By the time of Professor Nagaoka's experiment in 1924, most of the scientific community had declared the process of producing gold from another metal impossible. But that quickly changed once they knew where to look. The secret of alchemy lies in the stars.

127
00:15:12,380 --> 00:15:25,380
When you think about how gold is made, naturally gold is formed basically in the nuclear reactions in the sun. And then it spreads throughout the universe when a supernova occurs and the sun explodes and sends all of the products out.

128
00:15:25,380 --> 00:15:33,380
Because we now can do controlled nuclear reactions, we have the ability finally to essentially manufacture gold from other elements.

129
00:15:34,380 --> 00:15:47,380
Here at the University of California, Irvine, Dr. Ajay Shaka conducts experiments in alchemy nearly every day.

130
00:15:47,380 --> 00:16:06,380
We put mercury into one of these tubes and mercury has a minor isotope of 0.15% mercury 196, its gulf. And that isotope will actually pick up a neutron and in about 23 hours turn into gold.

131
00:16:07,380 --> 00:16:24,380
To bring the reactor to full capacity, Dr. Shaka removes the control rods that absorb neutrons and keep them from reacting with other atoms. This generates power at a staggering rate.

132
00:16:24,380 --> 00:16:38,380
In terms of the amount of power, including electrical energy that you can generate from a given mass of material, nuclear is about 10 to 20 million times better than anything else.

133
00:16:39,380 --> 00:16:51,380
After 24 hours, the experiment has been a success and yields gold, a real-life philosopher's stone at work in the basement of a university building.

134
00:16:52,380 --> 00:17:00,380
The discovery of alchemy has been invaluable to science, but ironically, it has not produced untold riches.

135
00:17:01,380 --> 00:17:17,380
If you irradiate for about a day in our reactor, you make 3 tenths of a cent worth of gold. Since we charge $200 an hour to operate the reactor, you're pretty far in the hole.

136
00:17:18,380 --> 00:17:35,380
But while modern-day alchemy is considered far too inefficient to create vast new caches of gold, ancient astronaut theorists believe a much greater technology than our own may have been at work thousands of years ago in ancient Egypt.

137
00:17:37,380 --> 00:17:41,380
Another place where gold was linked to the gods.

138
00:17:42,380 --> 00:17:51,380
The idea of gold being some sort of divine metal, divine element is very much ingrained in the ancient Egyptian systems of belief.

139
00:17:52,380 --> 00:18:03,380
Gold was the flesh of the gods, so therefore very great significance. Egypt had probably the best supply of gold anywhere in the ancient world.

140
00:18:04,380 --> 00:18:16,380
And we find that in some of the letters which survived between the kings of Babylon, Assyria and others, and Egypt, a lot of them are begging letters, basically saying to the Egyptian king,

141
00:18:17,380 --> 00:18:24,380
you know, oh my brother the pharaoh, please send me gold, lots of gold, because gold is as dust in the land of my brother the pharaoh.

142
00:18:25,380 --> 00:18:40,380
But just how did gold come to be so much more abundant in ancient Egypt than in neighboring lands? And why did the Egyptians view the metal as something not of this world?

143
00:18:41,380 --> 00:18:55,380
According to ancient astronaut theorists, it is entirely possible that the Egyptians were capable of actually manufacturing gold and may have received other worldly help to do so.

144
00:18:56,380 --> 00:19:14,380
If alchemical transmutations can be performed in a modest facility like the one at the University of California, Irvine, what might be possible with a larger reactor? A reactor perhaps the size of the great pyramid at Giza?

145
00:19:15,380 --> 00:19:27,380
Christopher Dunn has suggested that the Giza pyramid is some kind of giant machine and that some kind of chemical reaction was taking place inside the pyramid.

146
00:19:28,380 --> 00:19:35,380
It's possible that the Giza pyramid was actually being used to transmute other elements into gold.

147
00:19:36,380 --> 00:19:49,380
Looking into the blueprints of the internal arrangement of passageways, chambers and shafts, the appearance of it to me did not resemble anything that would be used as a tomb.

148
00:19:50,380 --> 00:20:05,380
The precision with which it was built, the precision of the stones that go into building the queen's chamber, the grand gallery and then also thousands and thousands of tons of granite that were brought down the Nile 500 miles to build the king's chamber.

149
00:20:06,380 --> 00:20:17,380
These are the features that really shout out and say, there's something going on here, there's something different. It was built like a machine, perhaps it functioned like a machine.

150
00:20:20,380 --> 00:20:25,380
Could it be that the great pyramid was the original philosopher's stone?

151
00:20:26,380 --> 00:20:33,380
If so, how could an ancient civilization have constructed the equivalent of a nuclear reactor?

152
00:20:36,380 --> 00:20:44,380
Might the centuries-old search for the philosopher's stone represent more than just a desire for gold and riches?

153
00:20:44,380 --> 00:20:51,380
Could it represent, as ancient astronaut theorists suggest, the search for lost technology?

154
00:20:52,380 --> 00:21:03,380
Perhaps the key to that knowledge still lies hidden somewhere here on Earth and can be found in areas still containing vast amounts of hidden treasure.

155
00:21:14,380 --> 00:21:18,380
1936, the Giza Plateau, Egypt.

156
00:21:20,380 --> 00:21:26,380
For more than 3,000 years, the body of the great Sphinx had been buried beneath the sand.

157
00:21:27,380 --> 00:21:35,380
But after 11 years of work, Egyptian archaeologists uncovered the entire monument for the first time since antiquity.

158
00:21:36,380 --> 00:21:46,380
At 241 feet long and 66 feet high, it is the largest and oldest monolithic statue in the world.

159
00:21:50,380 --> 00:21:58,380
Even more incredible is its shape. The Sphinx has the head of a man and the body of a lion.

160
00:21:59,380 --> 00:22:08,380
Although Egyptologists date the construction of the great Sphinx to the reign of the pharaoh Kafra in approximately 2,500 B.C.,

161
00:22:10,380 --> 00:22:15,380
others claim its construction could be much, much older.

162
00:22:16,380 --> 00:22:25,380
The Orthodox date of about 2,500 B.C. tagged on these monuments has been challenged by a group of researchers, including myself,

163
00:22:26,380 --> 00:22:32,380
who have argued that the erosion of the Sphinx suggests much, much older Sphinx.

164
00:22:33,380 --> 00:22:40,380
Although Egyptologists have found no agreement as to when or why this strange monument was built,

165
00:22:41,380 --> 00:22:48,380
ancient astronaut theorists believe it may offer proof of extraterrestrials being present in ancient Egypt.

166
00:23:03,380 --> 00:23:13,380
We see in many ancient Sumerian and Egyptian inscriptions of Sphinxes, half-man, half-animal of some kind,

167
00:23:14,380 --> 00:23:18,380
and a variance to a degree of different combinations of animals and human beings.

168
00:23:19,380 --> 00:23:25,380
We have to wonder why would they be doing this, and logically it starts to make more sense when we realize a lot of these ancient texts

169
00:23:25,380 --> 00:23:31,380
explain that extraterrestrials came here and created us in their image and after their likeness.

170
00:23:34,380 --> 00:23:43,380
If you believe the work of the late Zechariah Sitchin, where he believes that the Anunnaki came from a planet that is somewhere out in our solar system

171
00:23:44,380 --> 00:23:49,380
and that they came here to mine for gold, but they figured they're not going to do the work themselves,

172
00:23:49,380 --> 00:23:57,380
so they decided to take what creatures were on this planet at the time, genetically alter them, and make mankind.

173
00:23:58,380 --> 00:24:05,380
And if that's the case, it's very possible that they could be using genetic alterations to experiment with not only just humanity,

174
00:24:06,380 --> 00:24:08,380
but a mixing of other species with humanity.

175
00:24:12,380 --> 00:24:17,380
Could the Great Sphinx be evidence of genetic engineering by ancient aliens?

176
00:24:18,380 --> 00:24:27,380
And if, as Zechariah Sitchin proposed, extraterrestrials were genetically altering humans and animals for the purpose of mining gold,

177
00:24:28,380 --> 00:24:34,380
might this enormous structure have at one point been a repository for that gold?

178
00:24:39,380 --> 00:24:44,380
Is it possible that when Egyptian archaeologists began excavating the Great Sphinx,

179
00:24:44,380 --> 00:24:47,380
what they were really searching for was gold?

180
00:24:51,380 --> 00:24:59,380
Over the centuries, secret chambers, shafts, and elaborate tunnel systems have indeed been discovered all around the Giza Plateau.

181
00:25:00,380 --> 00:25:06,380
A shaft was discovered called the Ozerian Shaft, which led under the Giza Plateau behind the Sphinx,

182
00:25:07,380 --> 00:25:11,380
now in that shaft are various passageways that lead seemingly nowhere.

183
00:25:12,380 --> 00:25:19,380
In recent years, ground penetrating radar, or GPR scans, have been conducted,

184
00:25:20,380 --> 00:25:27,380
which reveal evidence of numerous underground cavities located not only around the Sphinx, but underneath it as well.

185
00:25:29,380 --> 00:25:34,380
From a scientific point of view, I'm not talking about speculation and theories and legends and so forth.

186
00:25:35,380 --> 00:25:42,380
That was the very first time that some strong indication that there might be these hidden tunnels and chambers under these things.

187
00:25:44,380 --> 00:25:50,380
And according to this, they found very, very strong evidence of what looked like artificial chambers.

188
00:25:53,380 --> 00:25:59,380
It is not a question as to whether or not there is a secret underground passage underneath the Giza Plateau.

189
00:25:59,380 --> 00:26:06,380
The question is, can we get access to this? And of course the all important question is, is there something there of extraordinary value,

190
00:26:07,380 --> 00:26:11,380
maybe even something which defies science, which might even be of an extraterrestrial nature.

191
00:26:20,380 --> 00:26:27,380
If the alleged cavities under the Sphinx contain not only gold, but gold mined by ancient alien beings,

192
00:26:28,380 --> 00:26:32,380
might they also contain something more than just material treasure?

193
00:26:36,380 --> 00:26:46,380
Ancient astronaut theorists believe an elaborate secret repository is located under the Sphinx's pause, known as the Hall of Records.

194
00:26:47,380 --> 00:26:53,380
It dates back to the fall of Atlantis, which according to ancient texts,

195
00:26:53,380 --> 00:26:57,380
is said to have occurred nearly 12,000 years ago.

196
00:26:58,380 --> 00:27:07,380
They also claim that there were extraterrestrials living in Atlantis, and that they needed a repository to house all of their accumulated knowledge.

197
00:27:10,380 --> 00:27:15,380
The Hall of Records was made by us, but with the tools and the knowledge of extraterrestrials.

198
00:27:16,380 --> 00:27:27,380
It is speculated that a group of survivors of Atlantis came to Egypt at about 10,500 BC, brought along with them their records, their knowledge,

199
00:27:28,380 --> 00:27:32,380
and built this storeroom somewhere at Giza.

200
00:27:36,380 --> 00:27:44,380
If archaeologists do someday unearth secret chambers below the Sphinx, what will they find?

201
00:27:45,380 --> 00:27:54,380
Gold? A library of ancient extraterrestrial knowledge? Or might they, perhaps, find both?

202
00:27:55,380 --> 00:28:01,380
My personal view is that it would be loaded with gold technology, technology that once belonged to the gods.

203
00:28:02,380 --> 00:28:10,380
It would help us to answer who built the pyramids, how they built it, and likely there is a portal or a gateway that leads into the stars within this Hall of Records.

204
00:28:11,380 --> 00:28:26,380
If the Hall of Records really does exist, is it possible that it contains extraterrestrial knowledge, not on ancient scrolls, but stored on gold?

205
00:28:29,380 --> 00:28:37,380
Gold is a pretty amazing metal. Gold is one of the best conductors of electricity we have, which is obviously very important in electronic applications.

206
00:28:37,380 --> 00:28:41,380
Not only do you need a really good conductor, but you need one that won't corrode.

207
00:28:42,380 --> 00:28:50,380
And so gold, when you really, really need high quality, long lasting, good electronics, it's really the choice that you would make.

208
00:28:53,380 --> 00:29:02,380
Is ancient knowledge not only stored with gold, but stored on gold? Really the mysterious secret of this precious metal?

209
00:29:03,380 --> 00:29:12,380
Perhaps the answer lies hidden 1,800 miles away, deep beneath the church in Renlis-A-Tot, France.

210
00:29:18,380 --> 00:29:21,380
The Village of Renlis-A-Tot, France.

211
00:29:22,380 --> 00:29:25,380
January 29, 1953.

212
00:29:26,380 --> 00:29:38,380
Marie DeNarneau, a frail, 85-year-old woman, lies on her deathbed, promising to divulge a long-held secret about a vast treasure.

213
00:29:39,380 --> 00:29:46,380
But a recent stroke has left her unable to speak or write, and her secret dies with her.

214
00:29:47,380 --> 00:29:52,380
Before Marie's death, she had promised to tell someone the secret.

215
00:29:52,380 --> 00:29:56,380
I will tell you the secret, and you will be rich beyond your wildest dreams.

216
00:29:59,380 --> 00:30:07,380
And what she said was, the people of this village walk on enough gold to make them wealthy for 100 years, and they have no idea.

217
00:30:08,380 --> 00:30:13,380
And the secret, she was never able to speak it after she had her stroke.

218
00:30:13,380 --> 00:30:15,380
So what was Marie talking about?

219
00:30:17,380 --> 00:30:24,380
Legends of a vast gold treasure hidden at Renlis-A-Tot date all the way back to the 5th century.

220
00:30:26,380 --> 00:30:38,380
When after sacking Rome in 410 AD, Germanic warriors known as the Visigoths made their way to the area with all the stolen treasure they could carry.

221
00:30:39,380 --> 00:30:47,380
But when they abandoned the region some 200 years later, they reportedly left some of their ill-gotten wealth behind.

222
00:30:48,380 --> 00:30:51,380
The Visigoths were known to have buried treasure with their dead.

223
00:30:52,380 --> 00:30:57,380
So Renlis-A-Tot became significant because of this idea that there might be gold buried there.

224
00:30:58,380 --> 00:31:07,380
For hundreds of years, the rumors of buried treasure persisted, although no tangible evidence of it was ever found.

225
00:31:09,380 --> 00:31:27,380
But then in 1891, a young parish priest named Berenger Sonnier was restoring the local church when according to popular legend, he discovered something that turned him into an extremely wealthy man almost overnight.

226
00:31:28,380 --> 00:31:41,380
This wealth that he had was part of a vast golden treasure that was kept underground in this church in a weird series of catacombs.

227
00:31:41,380 --> 00:31:45,380
These catacombs at Renlis-A-Tot were ancient.

228
00:31:46,380 --> 00:31:49,380
They had been there long before the church had been built.

229
00:31:50,380 --> 00:31:55,380
And here's an area that's known to have these caves that were used by the Visigoths.

230
00:31:58,380 --> 00:32:04,380
I lived here 16 years and we know here's a tunnel under this garden.

231
00:32:05,380 --> 00:32:14,380
It comes along this way from the castle until to the church and it runs this in this way.

232
00:32:16,380 --> 00:32:21,380
There have been people who've been coming here since the 1950s in search of gold and some have found it.

233
00:32:22,380 --> 00:32:32,380
The question is why the finding gold is everything that is to this mystery or whether it's just the first step along many steps to go before we actually uncover the real mystery of Renlis-A-Tot.

234
00:32:35,380 --> 00:32:50,380
Although Sonnier claimed to have come upon this vast wealth by chance, many believe he actively searched for the Visigoth gold and that much more still lies hidden in the catacombs beneath the church.

235
00:32:52,380 --> 00:33:05,380
But even more mysterious than the priest's possible discovery of gold was his strange behavior afterwards, a behavior that became reflected in the design of the church itself.

236
00:33:06,380 --> 00:33:15,380
Baron Chassonnier is a guy who goes in search of ancient documents, who goes in search of certain specific knowledge in alchemical circles.

237
00:33:15,380 --> 00:33:20,380
So what we have found in an awful lot of alchemical processes is the importance of gold.

238
00:33:24,380 --> 00:33:28,380
What happens next is that he begins to build a church, he builds it according to a plan.

239
00:33:30,380 --> 00:33:33,380
This plan is to make contact with the divine.

240
00:33:34,380 --> 00:33:41,380
And so I think Sonnier realized that certain metals could be transformed into something which truly made it a spiritual experience.

241
00:33:42,380 --> 00:33:53,380
Might the golden treasure Father Sonnier supposedly unearthed have contained more than just monetary value? Could it have held some other worldly knowledge?

242
00:33:56,380 --> 00:34:05,380
The priest confided in only one other person as to the origin of this mysterious wealth is housekeeper Marie de Narno.

243
00:34:06,380 --> 00:34:09,380
But what was the secret that they shared?

244
00:34:10,380 --> 00:34:17,380
Ancient astronaut theorists believe a clue may lie in the inscription found over the door of the church.

245
00:34:18,380 --> 00:34:25,380
Baron Chassonnier placed an inscription over the door that people have been talking about for a hundred years.

246
00:34:26,380 --> 00:34:31,380
The inscription says Terribilis est locus istae.

247
00:34:31,380 --> 00:34:36,380
It's mistakenly translated most often as this place is terrible.

248
00:34:37,380 --> 00:34:41,380
But in fact the inscription comes from the Old Testament from the book of Genesis.

249
00:34:42,380 --> 00:34:49,380
Jacob has a dream about a ladder that connects heaven to earth where humans could connect to the divine.

250
00:34:50,380 --> 00:34:57,380
So when you look at the Old Testament translation what it really says is this place is awesome.

251
00:35:02,380 --> 00:35:08,380
Is this inscription from the Old Testament of the Hebrew Bible a reference to something divide?

252
00:35:09,380 --> 00:35:12,380
Or might it point to an extraterrestrial connection?

253
00:35:13,380 --> 00:35:16,380
I believe Renle Chateau could be a stargate to another world.

254
00:35:17,380 --> 00:35:22,380
This is based on the inscription placed above the entrance to the church by Baron J. Sonnier.

255
00:35:23,380 --> 00:35:33,380
Why would this priest put this inscription there unless he's indicating that this awesome and tremendously powerful place, Renle Chateau, is a gateway to the stars.

256
00:35:35,380 --> 00:35:40,380
Renle Chateau to me is one of the spookiest and most powerful places I've ever been.

257
00:35:42,380 --> 00:35:45,380
The ground there is oozing mystery.

258
00:35:46,380 --> 00:35:51,380
We know that people have said that Renle Chateau is a place for UFOs.

259
00:35:52,380 --> 00:35:58,380
We know people have reported time slips and people have said that they have had encounters with the devil.

260
00:35:59,380 --> 00:36:06,380
So there is definitely something about that area which suggests that for centuries very strange and bizarre things happen.

261
00:36:09,380 --> 00:36:17,380
Could this tiny village be a gateway to an extraterrestrial past or even another dimension?

262
00:36:18,380 --> 00:36:22,380
Perhaps the answer lies buried with Marie de Narno.

263
00:36:24,380 --> 00:36:30,380
Or as some believe, the secrets of Renle Chateau might still be revealed.

264
00:36:31,380 --> 00:36:38,380
And the answer may lie, not in France, but just to the north, in Scotland.

265
00:36:39,380 --> 00:36:42,380
Rosland Chapel, Scotland.

266
00:36:43,380 --> 00:36:49,380
Perched atop a hill overlooking the village of Rosland, 7 miles south of Edinburgh, sits this medieval 15th century church.

267
00:36:51,380 --> 00:37:00,380
Some say that hidden on the grounds in secret chambers within the church are some of the world's greatest law enforcement officers.

268
00:37:00,380 --> 00:37:13,380
Some say that hidden on the grounds in secret chambers within the church are some of the world's greatest lost relics, including the treasure of the Knights Templar.

269
00:37:16,380 --> 00:37:24,380
This elite band of warrior monks had been based at the Temple Mount in Jerusalem during the Christian Crusades.

270
00:37:25,380 --> 00:37:38,380
They were also rumored to have been in possession of many valuable religious artifacts, including the most valuable golden relic of all, the Holy Grail.

271
00:37:39,380 --> 00:37:43,380
The cup used by Jesus during the Last Supper.

272
00:37:44,380 --> 00:37:49,380
The Knights Templar began excavating at Solomon's Temple.

273
00:37:50,380 --> 00:37:58,380
It is said that they discovered secret caverns which held the huge horde of gold artifacts.

274
00:38:00,380 --> 00:38:08,380
At the time of the sacking of Solomon's Temple, the treasure there suddenly vanished.

275
00:38:09,380 --> 00:38:17,380
They then took this treasure to Scotland and buried it at Rosland Chapel.

276
00:38:21,380 --> 00:38:26,380
Rosland Chapel is one of the most fascinating possible recreations of Solomon's Temple.

277
00:38:26,380 --> 00:38:37,380
It literally is a Holy Grail Temple that was constructed by William Sinclair and is designed to be a repository of Holy Grail secrets.

278
00:38:38,380 --> 00:38:44,380
When it was created, it had the most wonderful and fantastic symbolism perhaps anywhere in the world.

279
00:38:46,380 --> 00:38:50,380
Could Rosland Chapel really have been built to house the Holy Grail?

280
00:38:50,380 --> 00:39:02,380
Some believe the architecture of the chapel is adorned with mysterious messages and symbols that reveal the secret whereabouts of the cup of Christ.

281
00:39:04,380 --> 00:39:06,380
And here we are, this is Rosland Chapel.

282
00:39:08,380 --> 00:39:11,380
William Sinclair was responsible for building the chapel.

283
00:39:12,380 --> 00:39:14,380
It was a very rich individual.

284
00:39:14,380 --> 00:39:17,380
He was the Chancellor of Scotland at the time.

285
00:39:18,380 --> 00:39:28,380
We see this extraordinary gifted brilliant man collecting the wisdom traditions from around the world and instilling all of those into Rosland Chapel.

286
00:39:32,380 --> 00:39:38,380
Among the many carvings found in the walls of Rosland Chapel are faces called the Green Men.

287
00:39:39,380 --> 00:39:42,380
Pagan deities that represent growth and rebirth.

288
00:39:43,380 --> 00:39:50,380
Some believe these strange faces provide a clue that the chapel truly does hold the Holy Grail.

289
00:39:52,380 --> 00:39:55,380
The carvings themselves have a dual meaning. They always half had the dual meaning.

290
00:39:57,380 --> 00:40:00,380
The Green Men appears in over 110 different locations.

291
00:40:01,380 --> 00:40:08,380
As you watch the progression of the Green Men from east to west, that progression represents the passing of time.

292
00:40:09,380 --> 00:40:17,380
All the youngest of all the Green Men carvings are on the eastern wall and towards the west they become older.

293
00:40:18,380 --> 00:40:28,380
This symbolizes the ultimate secrets of nature and it makes one wonder if in fact the Grail is connected with these secrets and the presence of the Green Men in this Holy Grail Chapel.

294
00:40:29,380 --> 00:40:37,380
But if the Holy Grail truly does reside in Rosland Chapel, where might it be hidden?

295
00:40:38,380 --> 00:40:47,380
Some believe it lies within an ornate pillar called the Apprentice Pillar and at least one person has actually attempted to retrieve it.

296
00:40:48,380 --> 00:40:51,380
We actually have a story which is known to be factual.

297
00:40:51,380 --> 00:41:04,380
It is known to be factual that a person came into the chapel with an axe who was going to be intent on hacking down the Apprentice Pillar because he was convinced that the Grail was actually inside.

298
00:41:07,380 --> 00:41:15,380
What is the Grail? What if I was to say the Grail is your DNA because it is your past and it is your future?

299
00:41:16,380 --> 00:41:23,380
And the very interesting thing is when you look at that pillar you see that it is actually the DNA column.

300
00:41:26,380 --> 00:41:38,380
Might all these mysterious carvings that have been linked to the Holy Grail indicate that the chalice used by Jesus at the Last Supper was something more than just a drinking vessel?

301
00:41:39,380 --> 00:41:52,380
The whole story is very fascinating to the ancient astronaut theory. Wolfram von Eschenbach for example suggests that the Holy Grail arrived from the stars.

302
00:41:54,380 --> 00:41:57,380
And the question is what did he mean by that?

303
00:41:58,380 --> 00:42:04,380
It is often described as this vessel that had blinking red lights.

304
00:42:06,380 --> 00:42:10,380
Were the Templar in possession of some technological device?

305
00:42:12,380 --> 00:42:19,380
Could the Holy Grail really be an ancient link between Jesus and some spiritual or other worldly power?

306
00:42:20,380 --> 00:42:27,380
And might finding it provide proof of a link between ourselves and an extraterrestrial origin?

307
00:42:30,380 --> 00:42:46,380
If so, might this mysterious church like other so-called temples of gold in Peru, Egypt and France contain treasure far more valuable than mere monetary wealth?

308
00:42:47,380 --> 00:42:58,380
Whether we are in Rosenthal, whether we are in Raleigh Chateau, we always go back underneath the earth where there might not just be spiritual treasure to be found but also physical treasure.

309
00:42:58,380 --> 00:43:10,380
Gold has been one of the most important quests of all ancient and sacred traditions. Gold symbolizes wealth, it symbolizes power, but ultimately gold represents our connection with the stars.

310
00:43:11,380 --> 00:43:22,380
Cultures all over the world valued gold more than anything else and it seems that they knew something about gold that we are yet to discover.

311
00:43:24,380 --> 00:43:30,380
Could gold actually be the ultimate link between humans and other worldly beings?

312
00:43:31,380 --> 00:43:38,380
A tangible connection to extraterrestrial ancestors that came to earth thousands of years ago.

313
00:43:38,380 --> 00:43:56,380
Perhaps. But if the search for gold really is one of the reasons why ancient aliens traveled to the third planet from the sun, one more question remains. Will they return for more?
