important to me i think it's very 58 00:02:54,630 --> 00:02:53,599 mysterious it answers a lot of questions 59 00:02:56,790 --> 00:02:54,640 and 60 00:02:58,070 --> 00:02:56,800 let's face it crystal skulls are 61 00:02:59,910 --> 00:02:58,080 becoming 62 00:03:01,350 --> 00:02:59,920 one of the hottest topics in the 63 00:03:03,670 --> 00:03:01,360 paranormal field 64 00:03:04,949 --> 00:03:03,680 how did you find yourself researching 65 00:03:06,869 --> 00:03:04,959 this and 66 00:03:09,190 --> 00:03:06,879 and getting into just exactly what it is 67 00:03:12,149 --> 00:03:09,200 you got into 68 00:03:14,949 --> 00:03:12,159 wow well obviously it begins when my 69 00:03:16,630 --> 00:03:14,959 archaeological career began uh which was 70 00:03:18,550 --> 00:03:16,640 my dad used to be a volunteer digger 71 00:03:20,470 --> 00:03:18,560 back in the 60s and 70s before 72 00:03:22,470 --> 00:03:20,480 archaeology became a 73 00:03:25,030 --> 00:03:22,480 set discipline which he effectively is 74 00:03:27,670 --> 00:03:25,040 now um and when i was eight years old he 75 00:03:29,350 --> 00:03:27,680 got me into digging in holes and pulling 76 00:03:30,309 --> 00:03:29,360 out roman stuff and all that sort of 77 00:03:32,309 --> 00:03:30,319 thing 78 00:03:34,149 --> 00:03:32,319 so it started very very early did a lot 79 00:03:35,670 --> 00:03:34,159 of voluntary work over here uh 80 00:03:38,550 --> 00:03:35,680 eventually i went to art college and 81 00:03:40,710 --> 00:03:38,560 then the museum in this town is directly 82 00:03:42,710 --> 00:03:40,720 opposite the art college so at the same 83 00:03:44,830 --> 00:03:42,720 time i was studying art for the two 84 00:03:47,509 --> 00:03:44,840 years i was there i was also studying 85 00:03:49,910 --> 00:03:47,519 archaeology as an extension studies 86 00:03:52,470 --> 00:03:49,920 thing to liverpool university so by this 87 00:03:54,309 --> 00:03:52,480 point late teens going into early 20s i 88 00:03:56,149 --> 00:03:54,319 spent a long time then as an 89 00:03:58,070 --> 00:03:56,159 archaeologist 90 00:04:00,869 --> 00:03:58,080 also my mum and dad were collectors so 91 00:04:03,509 --> 00:04:00,879 they collected a huge number of bizarre 92 00:04:06,789 --> 00:04:03,519 objects and that's rubbed off on me as 93 00:04:08,710 --> 00:04:06,799 well um after a long career in the music 94 00:04:11,190 --> 00:04:08,720 business eventually i've retired and 95 00:04:12,630 --> 00:04:11,200 i've come back to doing writing 96 00:04:13,509 --> 00:04:12,640 television and various other bits and 97 00:04:14,789 --> 00:04:13,519 bobs 98 00:04:16,150 --> 00:04:14,799 and then a friend of mine came to me 99 00:04:17,349 --> 00:04:16,160 this is the answer to your question 100 00:04:18,150 --> 00:04:17,359 really a friend of mine came to me and 101 00:04:21,030 --> 00:04:18,160 said 102 00:04:21,990 --> 00:04:21,040 i've got this really really old 103 00:04:24,790 --> 00:04:22,000 friend 104 00:04:26,710 --> 00:04:24,800 who spent time in south america and when 105 00:04:28,230 --> 00:04:26,720 he was in south america it could even 106 00:04:30,469 --> 00:04:28,240 have been when he was a young lad 107 00:04:32,710 --> 00:04:30,479 between the walls or whatever uh he 108 00:04:35,749 --> 00:04:32,720 befriended people in a village there and 109 00:04:38,390 --> 00:04:35,759 was given an aztec crystal skull 110 00:04:40,310 --> 00:04:38,400 now this chap's getting too old to be 111 00:04:43,030 --> 00:04:40,320 the custodian of it so he then passed it 112 00:04:45,830 --> 00:04:43,040 on to the guy who i know who's uh quite 113 00:04:48,230 --> 00:04:45,840 high up in freemasonry but this guy is 114 00:04:50,310 --> 00:04:48,240 himself quite old 115 00:04:52,310 --> 00:04:50,320 so he came to me and he said well i 116 00:04:54,950 --> 00:04:52,320 think you should be the next custodian 117 00:04:56,710 --> 00:04:54,960 and i'm well what what made you you know 118 00:04:58,390 --> 00:04:56,720 make that decision he said well you're 119 00:05:00,150 --> 00:04:58,400 an archaeologist you're a historian and 120 00:05:02,310 --> 00:05:00,160 you appreciate the spiritual side of 121 00:05:05,029 --> 00:05:02,320 things you know the the bigger sort of 122 00:05:06,790 --> 00:05:05,039 um human existence if you like so i 123 00:05:09,510 --> 00:05:06,800 think you'd really appreciate this so i 124 00:05:10,790 --> 00:05:09,520 said oh okay all right then so anyway i 125 00:05:12,950 --> 00:05:10,800 ended up with this 126 00:05:15,670 --> 00:05:12,960 aztec school it's about five to eight 127 00:05:17,510 --> 00:05:15,680 hundred years old we think that's based 128 00:05:19,670 --> 00:05:17,520 on uh the way that it's made it's 129 00:05:22,469 --> 00:05:19,680 handmade and stylistically it's of that 130 00:05:25,510 --> 00:05:22,479 sort of just on the cusp of the um you 131 00:05:27,990 --> 00:05:25,520 know pre-columbian sort of cortez 132 00:05:30,629 --> 00:05:28,000 invasion period in the late 14th early 133 00:05:33,110 --> 00:05:30,639 1500s it kind of matches in with that so 134 00:05:35,430 --> 00:05:33,120 i ended up with this crystal skull 135 00:05:37,189 --> 00:05:35,440 um and that sort of inspired me to to 136 00:05:39,029 --> 00:05:37,199 try and find out more to do more 137 00:05:39,990 --> 00:05:39,039 research to look at 138 00:05:42,310 --> 00:05:40,000 more 139 00:05:44,870 --> 00:05:42,320 to do with the crystal schools 140 00:05:46,710 --> 00:05:44,880 and also i mean human heads 141 00:05:50,629 --> 00:05:46,720 generally speaking 142 00:05:52,710 --> 00:05:50,639 appear in every single period of history 143 00:05:55,909 --> 00:05:52,720 because it's our history 144 00:05:57,830 --> 00:05:55,919 so that's a fantastic thread for a book 145 00:06:00,710 --> 00:05:57,840 you could say human head and you could 146 00:06:02,950 --> 00:06:00,720 go to any time period or any place that 147 00:06:05,430 --> 00:06:02,960 humans of any kind of lived anywhere on 148 00:06:07,590 --> 00:06:05,440 planet earth they've all got 149 00:06:09,670 --> 00:06:07,600 human heads and there's so much 150 00:06:11,990 --> 00:06:09,680 information we can get from them so i'm 151 00:06:14,070 --> 00:06:12,000 then left with the two things which 152 00:06:16,309 --> 00:06:14,080 essentially make the book which is the 153 00:06:18,550 --> 00:06:16,319 the human side of it human remains and 154 00:06:21,189 --> 00:06:18,560 then what we as human beings did with 155 00:06:23,029 --> 00:06:21,199 that as an image how we then went on to 156 00:06:24,870 --> 00:06:23,039 produce carvings and crystal skulls and 157 00:06:26,390 --> 00:06:24,880 the reasons behind that 158 00:06:27,990 --> 00:06:26,400 um there you go it was a long answer but 159 00:06:30,629 --> 00:06:28,000 we got there in the end 160 00:06:33,430 --> 00:06:30,639 that's so fascinating and i'm i'm amazed 161 00:06:35,670 --> 00:06:33,440 by your dis your disciplines not only in 162 00:06:37,590 --> 00:06:35,680 archaeology geology and science but 163 00:06:38,950 --> 00:06:37,600 human studies and you've kind of pushed 164 00:06:41,189 --> 00:06:38,960 the boundaries 165 00:06:43,990 --> 00:06:41,199 and um you 166 00:06:46,070 --> 00:06:44,000 have gone into advanced ministry as well 167 00:06:48,870 --> 00:06:46,080 which i believe yeah that that in the 168 00:06:51,270 --> 00:06:48,880 biblical studies this really this really 169 00:06:54,150 --> 00:06:51,280 stands out to me because you really have 170 00:06:56,550 --> 00:06:54,160 a grasp of like you said the big picture 171 00:06:57,990 --> 00:06:56,560 of where this fits into humanity 172 00:06:59,830 --> 00:06:58,000 um 173 00:07:01,830 --> 00:06:59,840 so you got that 174 00:07:03,510 --> 00:07:01,840 i i always used to say with this book as 175 00:07:04,710 --> 00:07:03,520 i was writing it so it took about two 176 00:07:06,710 --> 00:07:04,720 years to put together i always used to 177 00:07:09,350 --> 00:07:06,720 say it's going to be a tiny book with an 178 00:07:11,270 --> 00:07:09,360 enormous story to tell so it's just kind 179 00:07:12,950 --> 00:07:11,280 of a zip line to it that isn't imprint 180 00:07:15,430 --> 00:07:12,960 that's it it's a tiny book with an 181 00:07:19,749 --> 00:07:15,440 enormous story to tell 182 00:07:21,909 --> 00:07:19,759 yeah it is it's amazing and um 183 00:07:23,990 --> 00:07:21,919 you know i also kind of have the hobby 184 00:07:27,110 --> 00:07:24,000 of collecting antiques and i'm 185 00:07:29,430 --> 00:07:27,120 very very interested in the freemasonry 186 00:07:31,749 --> 00:07:29,440 aspect of this too and that kind of ties 187 00:07:32,790 --> 00:07:31,759 in with spirituality 188 00:07:36,629 --> 00:07:32,800 yeah 189 00:07:38,390 --> 00:07:36,639 well this friend of mine who is uh 190 00:07:40,070 --> 00:07:38,400 fairly high up in freemasonry he's 191 00:07:42,710 --> 00:07:40,080 worked his way through all the degrees 192 00:07:43,670 --> 00:07:42,720 um and to become a lodge master 193 00:07:45,909 --> 00:07:43,680 and he 194 00:07:49,110 --> 00:07:45,919 obviously then as a responsible person 195 00:07:51,430 --> 00:07:49,120 for that particular lodging district uh 196 00:07:53,110 --> 00:07:51,440 was then highly regarded by the chap who 197 00:07:55,350 --> 00:07:53,120 actually had this school who i believe 198 00:07:57,670 --> 00:07:55,360 was also in some way connected with 199 00:07:59,430 --> 00:07:57,680 freemasonry obviously freemasonry itself 200 00:08:02,230 --> 00:07:59,440 has changed 201 00:08:03,990 --> 00:08:02,240 over the years so let's hypothetically 202 00:08:06,869 --> 00:08:04,000 assume that the chap that originally got 203 00:08:10,230 --> 00:08:06,879 the school uh probably acquired it you 204 00:08:12,869 --> 00:08:10,240 know say the 1940s 1950s a lot of stuff 205 00:08:15,110 --> 00:08:12,879 found its way over here um during the 206 00:08:17,189 --> 00:08:15,120 war years and the post-war years 207 00:08:19,430 --> 00:08:17,199 uh he in turn has then passed it on to 208 00:08:22,070 --> 00:08:19,440 someone he respects but that that 209 00:08:24,550 --> 00:08:22,080 someone is as well quite old because you 210 00:08:27,270 --> 00:08:24,560 don't sort of progress in freemasonry at 211 00:08:29,110 --> 00:08:27,280 any particular great speed you know you 212 00:08:31,430 --> 00:08:29,120 first the second your third is probably 213 00:08:34,149 --> 00:08:31,440 three to four years after that it takes 214 00:08:36,070 --> 00:08:34,159 a long time to actually rise to any kind 215 00:08:37,909 --> 00:08:36,080 of level in freemasonry 216 00:08:40,070 --> 00:08:37,919 uh but the chapman who then ended up 217 00:08:42,230 --> 00:08:40,080 with the school so we're now only two 218 00:08:45,509 --> 00:08:42,240 steps away from the original owners in 219 00:08:48,070 --> 00:08:45,519 south america that chap again is now 220 00:08:50,550 --> 00:08:48,080 older than me i mean i'm heading towards 221 00:08:52,230 --> 00:08:50,560 my 60th at the end of this year so i'm 222 00:08:53,670 --> 00:08:52,240 no spring chicken 223 00:08:55,430 --> 00:08:53,680 as you say it's been it's been a long 224 00:08:57,590 --> 00:08:55,440 life with a lot of qualifications and a 225 00:08:59,829 --> 00:08:57,600 lot of experience and i've really you 226 00:09:01,910 --> 00:08:59,839 know uh how can i say tame the ball by 227 00:09:03,910 --> 00:09:01,920 the horns you know i've really 228 00:09:05,829 --> 00:09:03,920 gone at it because you know life is for 229 00:09:07,750 --> 00:09:05,839 living and i suppose that's that's 230 00:09:09,430 --> 00:09:07,760 reflected in my musical career as well 231 00:09:12,150 --> 00:09:09,440 because i still managed to hold that 232 00:09:14,630 --> 00:09:12,160 down and do everything else as well 233 00:09:17,030 --> 00:09:14,640 in that respect i suppose i'm in now in 234 00:09:19,990 --> 00:09:17,040 a position that those freemasons were 235 00:09:22,470 --> 00:09:20,000 when the school was passed on so i you 236 00:09:25,670 --> 00:09:22,480 know i've ended up with it now um 237 00:09:27,590 --> 00:09:25,680 there's a big exhibition coming up in um 238 00:09:29,829 --> 00:09:27,600 blackpool it's a conference called the 239 00:09:32,790 --> 00:09:29,839 awakening conference it's being done 240 00:09:35,350 --> 00:09:32,800 this summer i think it's in june it's in 241 00:09:36,710 --> 00:09:35,360 the 20 somethings of june uh eric von 242 00:09:38,710 --> 00:09:36,720 daniken's going to be there and a lot of 243 00:09:40,870 --> 00:09:38,720 other fairly well known folks and they 244 00:09:43,509 --> 00:09:40,880 want to put on an exhibition of 245 00:09:45,990 --> 00:09:43,519 antiquities there um so they've picked 246 00:09:47,990 --> 00:09:46,000 me to curate that and to to look after 247 00:09:50,470 --> 00:09:48,000 that which i think is amazing and it's 248 00:09:52,070 --> 00:09:50,480 little opportunities like that but get a 249 00:09:54,710 --> 00:09:52,080 chance for this school 250 00:09:56,550 --> 00:09:54,720 and a lot of other objects to be placed 251 00:09:58,070 --> 00:09:56,560 in front of the public the public can 252 00:09:59,430 --> 00:09:58,080 actually see these things because 253 00:10:00,949 --> 00:09:59,440 there's an awful lot of stuff in private 254 00:10:02,150 --> 00:10:00,959 collections and 255 00:10:04,150 --> 00:10:02,160 you know it'd be nice to see these 256 00:10:05,430 --> 00:10:04,160 things coming out and people to be able 257 00:10:07,430 --> 00:10:05,440 to see them 258 00:10:09,829 --> 00:10:07,440 that that really stood out to me that 259 00:10:12,790 --> 00:10:09,839 you are actually uh 260 00:10:15,110 --> 00:10:12,800 involved with these exhibitions 261 00:10:16,870 --> 00:10:15,120 and um when you do have these 262 00:10:19,269 --> 00:10:16,880 exhibitions mark 263 00:10:21,509 --> 00:10:19,279 are people you you often hear or at 264 00:10:22,710 --> 00:10:21,519 least i have often heard that when 265 00:10:24,710 --> 00:10:22,720 people become 266 00:10:27,670 --> 00:10:24,720 close in proximity to some of these 267 00:10:30,790 --> 00:10:27,680 items they have very real experiences 268 00:10:33,670 --> 00:10:30,800 have you had that happen 269 00:10:35,910 --> 00:10:33,680 well the simple answer is yes um 270 00:10:36,790 --> 00:10:35,920 i could think of all kinds of stories uh 271 00:10:39,509 --> 00:10:36,800 where 272 00:10:40,949 --> 00:10:39,519 ancient objects have as it were imparted 273 00:10:42,389 --> 00:10:40,959 their information 274 00:10:44,310 --> 00:10:42,399 um i'll give you a couple of uh i'll 275 00:10:47,269 --> 00:10:44,320 give you a couple of examples i actually 276 00:10:50,790 --> 00:10:47,279 own the oldest man-made object in where 277 00:10:52,790 --> 00:10:50,800 i live here in cheshire uh it's 480 000 278 00:10:55,190 --> 00:10:52,800 bc it's a hopsnian 279 00:10:57,509 --> 00:10:55,200 tool it's it's from the days of the 280 00:10:59,190 --> 00:10:57,519 woolly mammoths and you know post ice 281 00:11:00,790 --> 00:10:59,200 age and all that sort of thing 282 00:11:02,949 --> 00:11:00,800 and one lady came along and she picked 283 00:11:05,670 --> 00:11:02,959 this up because it's in a display it's 284 00:11:07,350 --> 00:11:05,680 only a stone so that she can't damage it 285 00:11:08,550 --> 00:11:07,360 she picked this thing up and just held 286 00:11:11,509 --> 00:11:08,560 it she went 287 00:11:14,389 --> 00:11:11,519 she said i can see this hunter outlined 288 00:11:17,190 --> 00:11:14,399 against a sheet of ice and he's got 289 00:11:20,389 --> 00:11:17,200 antlers on his head and he's he's some 290 00:11:23,430 --> 00:11:20,399 kind of ceremonial shaman and i can see 291 00:11:24,949 --> 00:11:23,440 him now this is just an ordinary lady 292 00:11:27,190 --> 00:11:24,959 who doesn't 293 00:11:30,150 --> 00:11:27,200 really know anything about archaeology 294 00:11:33,110 --> 00:11:30,160 or history what she didn't realize is 295 00:11:35,269 --> 00:11:33,120 the ice would have been here 296 00:11:37,030 --> 00:11:35,279 she described a scene that was possible 297 00:11:39,430 --> 00:11:37,040 at the site where that particular object 298 00:11:41,430 --> 00:11:39,440 was recovered and just down the road at 299 00:11:43,269 --> 00:11:41,440 starcar we've actually got anchored 300 00:11:44,870 --> 00:11:43,279 headpieces we've got these 301 00:11:47,350 --> 00:11:44,880 pieces that they used to wear with 302 00:11:49,269 --> 00:11:47,360 antlers on so every single piece of 303 00:11:51,590 --> 00:11:49,279 information she gave me 304 00:11:54,230 --> 00:11:51,600 was archaeologically historically and 305 00:11:56,550 --> 00:11:54,240 location based correct 306 00:11:58,150 --> 00:11:56,560 and all she did was pick the stone up 307 00:12:00,629 --> 00:11:58,160 um and then the same thing happened 308 00:12:02,470 --> 00:12:00,639 again i was uh we we were excavating a 309 00:12:05,110 --> 00:12:02,480 bronze age barrow over here and we ended 310 00:12:07,590 --> 00:12:05,120 up with a bucket with some um ash in it 311 00:12:09,590 --> 00:12:07,600 ash remains uh which later turned out to 312 00:12:10,790 --> 00:12:09,600 be a cremation burial so these are human 313 00:12:12,629 --> 00:12:10,800 remains 314 00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:12,639 and this lady was amazed by this she 315 00:12:16,470 --> 00:12:14,880 picked it up and she was saying oh i 316 00:12:18,710 --> 00:12:16,480 think it used to be a you know fella 317 00:12:21,190 --> 00:12:18,720 that was in here and what she didn't 318 00:12:23,430 --> 00:12:21,200 know is that actually the person that 319 00:12:25,590 --> 00:12:23,440 was cremated was most likely a warrior 320 00:12:27,430 --> 00:12:25,600 and probably was male because they came 321 00:12:29,350 --> 00:12:27,440 from the top of the burial mound but 322 00:12:31,670 --> 00:12:29,360 what was fantastic was she actually came 323 00:12:33,910 --> 00:12:31,680 from a place called newton willows and 324 00:12:36,150 --> 00:12:33,920 the excavation of the barrow took place 325 00:12:37,670 --> 00:12:36,160 in newton lee willows 326 00:12:39,829 --> 00:12:37,680 wow so 327 00:12:41,269 --> 00:12:39,839 and this was this was a an exhibition 328 00:12:43,030 --> 00:12:41,279 many many miles away this is in 329 00:12:44,949 --> 00:12:43,040 derbyshire in buxton where this this had 330 00:12:47,509 --> 00:12:44,959 turned up so the lady who lived in 331 00:12:50,150 --> 00:12:47,519 exactly the same physical location that 332 00:12:52,230 --> 00:12:50,160 this archaeological um these remains 333 00:12:53,509 --> 00:12:52,240 were recovered had connected with the 334 00:12:54,870 --> 00:12:53,519 remains 335 00:12:56,389 --> 00:12:54,880 but there's a difference there's a 336 00:12:57,910 --> 00:12:56,399 difference of about six and a half 337 00:13:00,790 --> 00:12:57,920 thousand years 338 00:13:03,269 --> 00:13:00,800 in the in the age so that was again it's 339 00:13:04,949 --> 00:13:03,279 one of these things and they just happen 340 00:13:07,110 --> 00:13:04,959 these things just seem to happen again 341 00:13:08,550 --> 00:13:07,120 and again and again and again uh people 342 00:13:11,269 --> 00:13:08,560 back to the crystal schools again people 343 00:13:14,470 --> 00:13:11,279 that have picked up this school um it's 344 00:13:16,150 --> 00:13:14,480 just slightly smaller than adult size 345 00:13:17,670 --> 00:13:16,160 and it doesn't look like anything when 346 00:13:20,389 --> 00:13:17,680 you when you approach it it just looks 347 00:13:22,150 --> 00:13:20,399 like you know a clear piece of plastic 348 00:13:25,110 --> 00:13:22,160 or whatever but as soon as you pick it 349 00:13:27,829 --> 00:13:25,120 up it weighs a ton it's really heavy but 350 00:13:29,269 --> 00:13:27,839 the weight to size ratio is is quite 351 00:13:31,030 --> 00:13:29,279 hefty 352 00:13:33,509 --> 00:13:31,040 and as you pick it up of course it's 353 00:13:34,710 --> 00:13:33,519 freezing cold because it's proper quartz 354 00:13:37,269 --> 00:13:34,720 it's the real 355 00:13:39,829 --> 00:13:37,279 uh mccoy it's the proper crystal 356 00:13:41,269 --> 00:13:39,839 and then straight away this thing sat 357 00:13:43,030 --> 00:13:41,279 there generating this enormous 358 00:13:46,550 --> 00:13:43,040 electrical field which is what quartz 359 00:13:49,030 --> 00:13:46,560 does and people do sort of get that oh 360 00:13:50,949 --> 00:13:49,040 you know they kind of go wow you know 361 00:13:52,949 --> 00:13:50,959 this is so powerful 362 00:13:54,790 --> 00:13:52,959 and it does it definitely connects with 363 00:13:56,710 --> 00:13:54,800 people and it does give them a bit of a 364 00:13:58,069 --> 00:13:56,720 blast so you've got the physical weight 365 00:13:59,509 --> 00:13:58,079 you've got the physical temperature and 366 00:14:02,310 --> 00:13:59,519 then you've got this huge electrical 367 00:14:03,910 --> 00:14:02,320 discharge that's coming off it um i 368 00:14:05,189 --> 00:14:03,920 tried to go i tried to go into this in 369 00:14:06,629 --> 00:14:05,199 the book because some people believe 370 00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:06,639 that these these schools have got things 371 00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:08,399 to impart that they're actually 372 00:14:12,550 --> 00:14:11,360 recorders um and that when i was writing 373 00:14:14,870 --> 00:14:12,560 the book of all this there can't 374 00:14:16,710 --> 00:14:14,880 possibly be a science uh scientific 375 00:14:18,949 --> 00:14:16,720 explanation for this there can't be any 376 00:14:20,310 --> 00:14:18,959 science behind it and then over here i 377 00:14:21,910 --> 00:14:20,320 think it was southampton university 378 00:14:24,790 --> 00:14:21,920 they've now started 379 00:14:26,310 --> 00:14:24,800 using lasers to write data into glass 380 00:14:28,069 --> 00:14:26,320 silicon disks 381 00:14:29,829 --> 00:14:28,079 which they can read back 382 00:14:31,030 --> 00:14:29,839 now all of a sudden you're thinking hang 383 00:14:32,470 --> 00:14:31,040 on a minute there's a school made of 384 00:14:34,629 --> 00:14:32,480 quartz silly because there's a disc made 385 00:14:36,710 --> 00:14:34,639 of quartz silica the only problem here 386 00:14:37,990 --> 00:14:36,720 is we just don't know how to read the 387 00:14:39,670 --> 00:14:38,000 crystals 388 00:14:41,910 --> 00:14:39,680 we we've developed a system now to read 389 00:14:44,230 --> 00:14:41,920 the disks but we can't read the crystals 390 00:14:45,829 --> 00:14:44,240 so there could just be more to it that 391 00:14:47,350 --> 00:14:45,839 could just be 392 00:14:49,590 --> 00:14:47,360 something in that legend that developed 393 00:14:52,310 --> 00:14:49,600 in the 1970s and 80s about these schools 394 00:14:54,069 --> 00:14:52,320 you know containing all kinds of ancient 395 00:14:55,910 --> 00:14:54,079 information maybe that is absolutely 396 00:14:58,150 --> 00:14:55,920 true but maybe it's also true of all the 397 00:15:01,030 --> 00:14:58,160 courts that's in the environment around 398 00:15:02,629 --> 00:15:01,040 us we we just can't read it yet 399 00:15:04,870 --> 00:15:02,639 does that kind of answer that question 400 00:15:07,750 --> 00:15:04,880 it does because 401 00:15:10,470 --> 00:15:07,760 this seems like a very genuinely it 402 00:15:13,269 --> 00:15:10,480 makes sense i mean we have courts we 403 00:15:14,870 --> 00:15:13,279 have mystical powers that have been felt 404 00:15:16,069 --> 00:15:14,880 by many people 405 00:15:18,949 --> 00:15:16,079 and 406 00:15:21,269 --> 00:15:18,959 some claims have been presented uh 407 00:15:24,550 --> 00:15:21,279 that there may even be healing qualities 408 00:15:27,670 --> 00:15:24,560 have you come across that at all 409 00:15:31,829 --> 00:15:27,680 i have um the closest i come to it in 410 00:15:34,550 --> 00:15:31,839 the book is i discuss the high content 411 00:15:36,710 --> 00:15:34,560 of the high content of quartz silica 412 00:15:38,629 --> 00:15:36,720 in the environment around us and then i 413 00:15:39,749 --> 00:15:38,639 discuss where that ends up 414 00:15:41,189 --> 00:15:39,759 in us 415 00:15:43,590 --> 00:15:41,199 and the interesting connection there 416 00:15:44,790 --> 00:15:43,600 it's a bit of a wow factor in the book 417 00:15:47,269 --> 00:15:44,800 is that the 418 00:15:49,590 --> 00:15:47,279 the lack of silicon in in human 419 00:15:51,269 --> 00:15:49,600 development actually affects the brain 420 00:15:52,629 --> 00:15:51,279 and the skull so if you're a baby and 421 00:15:55,590 --> 00:15:52,639 you're developing the womb you don't get 422 00:15:57,829 --> 00:15:55,600 enough silicon the deficiency affects 423 00:15:59,350 --> 00:15:57,839 the head i've got no idea how the guys 424 00:16:01,269 --> 00:15:59,360 that made the crystal schools knew that 425 00:16:02,470 --> 00:16:01,279 there was a connection but that is the 426 00:16:04,790 --> 00:16:02,480 connection 427 00:16:07,430 --> 00:16:04,800 there's also the idea that planet earth 428 00:16:09,670 --> 00:16:07,440 itself is a giant quartz crystal flying 429 00:16:13,189 --> 00:16:09,680 through the galaxy because the earth's 430 00:16:16,310 --> 00:16:13,199 core only functions if it's made from 431 00:16:18,550 --> 00:16:16,320 quartz silica so we're carbon life forms 432 00:16:21,350 --> 00:16:18,560 living in a silica world but at the end 433 00:16:23,430 --> 00:16:21,360 of the day it's the silica in us that 434 00:16:25,990 --> 00:16:23,440 seems to be relating to the environment 435 00:16:28,230 --> 00:16:26,000 around us so there has to be some form 436 00:16:30,550 --> 00:16:28,240 of communication there has to be some 437 00:16:32,389 --> 00:16:30,560 connection you've got this you know as 438 00:16:34,790 --> 00:16:32,399 above so below you know you've got this 439 00:16:36,870 --> 00:16:34,800 microcosm microcosm thing going on where 440 00:16:38,550 --> 00:16:36,880 we contain everything that we find in 441 00:16:40,550 --> 00:16:38,560 the planet around us 442 00:16:43,509 --> 00:16:40,560 which then contains everything that's in 443 00:16:46,069 --> 00:16:43,519 the universe around us so because we're 444 00:16:49,110 --> 00:16:46,079 so connected we're so absolutely linked 445 00:16:51,189 --> 00:16:49,120 to our environment there has to be an 446 00:16:53,189 --> 00:16:51,199 exchange of some kind 447 00:16:55,509 --> 00:16:53,199 going on between us 448 00:16:57,269 --> 00:16:55,519 and our environment and the crystals as 449 00:16:59,189 --> 00:16:57,279 you pointed out the chris people that 450 00:17:01,350 --> 00:16:59,199 believe in crystal healing and that is 451 00:17:03,430 --> 00:17:01,360 the different types of rocks 452 00:17:04,630 --> 00:17:03,440 and what they contain and their 453 00:17:07,270 --> 00:17:04,640 properties 454 00:17:09,590 --> 00:17:07,280 must scientifically must 455 00:17:11,750 --> 00:17:09,600 interact with us in some way because 456 00:17:13,829 --> 00:17:11,760 everything else does you know water 457 00:17:15,590 --> 00:17:13,839 affects us heat affects us you know 458 00:17:17,270 --> 00:17:15,600 sticking your fingers in a plug socket 459 00:17:18,390 --> 00:17:17,280 will affect you because that's 460 00:17:20,150 --> 00:17:18,400 electricity 461 00:17:21,510 --> 00:17:20,160 you know um 462 00:17:23,829 --> 00:17:21,520 you know we're affected by all those 463 00:17:26,549 --> 00:17:23,839 things so why would why wouldn't we be 464 00:17:29,110 --> 00:17:26,559 affected by the energy that's given off 465 00:17:31,190 --> 00:17:29,120 by parts of planet earth when we're so 466 00:17:33,590 --> 00:17:31,200 connected to it you know it to me just 467 00:17:36,789 --> 00:17:33,600 makes perfect sense 468 00:17:39,669 --> 00:17:36,799 it does sort of just make perfect sense 469 00:17:42,470 --> 00:17:39,679 and the symbolism also makes perfect 470 00:17:45,350 --> 00:17:42,480 sense uh the symbolic meaning of the 471 00:17:48,070 --> 00:17:45,360 human skull and how it's usually 472 00:17:50,870 --> 00:17:48,080 commonly symbolic symbolically used as 473 00:17:53,430 --> 00:17:50,880 representations of death mortality and 474 00:17:56,870 --> 00:17:53,440 the unachievable nature of immortality 475 00:17:59,430 --> 00:17:56,880 the um you know secret societies you 476 00:18:02,150 --> 00:17:59,440 people obviously often talk about the 477 00:18:04,950 --> 00:18:02,160 skull and bones society and other 478 00:18:08,549 --> 00:18:04,960 societies a lot of freemasonry uses the 479 00:18:09,750 --> 00:18:08,559 skull and bones in in various 480 00:18:10,789 --> 00:18:09,760 rituals 481 00:18:13,029 --> 00:18:10,799 and 482 00:18:14,870 --> 00:18:13,039 you know it has i i'm really glad that 483 00:18:17,510 --> 00:18:14,880 you're so knowledgeable of the spiritual 484 00:18:18,789 --> 00:18:17,520 aspects because as you said it's not 485 00:18:20,710 --> 00:18:18,799 just 486 00:18:22,870 --> 00:18:20,720 one culture 487 00:18:25,669 --> 00:18:22,880 this is widely known throughout the 488 00:18:27,669 --> 00:18:25,679 world it and it's amazing how 489 00:18:30,549 --> 00:18:27,679 all these cultures agree on the 490 00:18:33,830 --> 00:18:30,559 symbolism of the of the skull 491 00:18:35,430 --> 00:18:33,840 and the information that uh you have is 492 00:18:37,190 --> 00:18:35,440 is fascinating 493 00:18:39,110 --> 00:18:37,200 now i i 494 00:18:41,270 --> 00:18:39,120 saw i cannot remember the name of it i 495 00:18:43,110 --> 00:18:41,280 saw something on national geographic 496 00:18:45,029 --> 00:18:43,120 about crystal skulls 497 00:18:46,950 --> 00:18:45,039 and um how 498 00:18:47,909 --> 00:18:46,960 they may be a form of computer which 499 00:18:49,909 --> 00:18:47,919 sounds 500 00:18:52,630 --> 00:18:49,919 very similar to what you're saying about 501 00:18:53,750 --> 00:18:52,640 this uh quartz in the silica 502 00:18:56,070 --> 00:18:53,760 yeah 503 00:18:58,150 --> 00:18:56,080 well it was it was said in the 1970s 504 00:19:00,310 --> 00:18:58,160 there was this idea that maybe out there 505 00:19:02,950 --> 00:19:00,320 was some mystical number of schools made 506 00:19:05,190 --> 00:19:02,960 of crystal maybe 12 or 13 and that one 507 00:19:07,029 --> 00:19:05,200 day these skulls would be reunited and 508 00:19:09,190 --> 00:19:07,039 they would either you know light up or 509 00:19:10,390 --> 00:19:09,200 give out some information or 510 00:19:12,390 --> 00:19:10,400 you know herald the beginning of a 511 00:19:14,710 --> 00:19:12,400 spiritual transformation of some kind 512 00:19:16,549 --> 00:19:14,720 and and everybody in this the sort of 513 00:19:18,310 --> 00:19:16,559 ordinary scientific community just sort 514 00:19:20,150 --> 00:19:18,320 of went oh you know here we go again you 515 00:19:22,070 --> 00:19:20,160 know what it's going to be all about 516 00:19:23,909 --> 00:19:22,080 um but the more that we've looked at 517 00:19:25,830 --> 00:19:23,919 silicon i mean at the end of the day you 518 00:19:27,750 --> 00:19:25,840 know the wind the windows in our houses 519 00:19:29,990 --> 00:19:27,760 are made of silica you know we wear 520 00:19:31,590 --> 00:19:30,000 glasses made of silica we're talking to 521 00:19:35,270 --> 00:19:31,600 each other on computers and phones that 522 00:19:38,150 --> 00:19:35,280 contain silicon chips so that's silica 523 00:19:39,909 --> 00:19:38,160 computers function using silicon chips 524 00:19:42,150 --> 00:19:39,919 it's everywhere it's in building 525 00:19:44,870 --> 00:19:42,160 materials you know it's in bath sealant 526 00:19:47,669 --> 00:19:44,880 it's in concrete you know you name it 527 00:19:49,430 --> 00:19:47,679 it's absolutely everywhere it's one of 528 00:19:52,470 --> 00:19:49,440 the fundamental building blocks of 529 00:19:54,630 --> 00:19:52,480 science itself without silicon the the 530 00:19:56,789 --> 00:19:54,640 world wouldn't exist it wouldn't 531 00:19:58,710 --> 00:19:56,799 function in the way that it does and i 532 00:20:01,750 --> 00:19:58,720 think i spent a whole um there's a whole 533 00:20:03,590 --> 00:20:01,760 chapter that explores that in the book 534 00:20:05,590 --> 00:20:03,600 that kind of goes into the what can you 535 00:20:07,669 --> 00:20:05,600 do with it and it covers everything from 536 00:20:10,789 --> 00:20:07,679 prehistoric flints you know which can 537 00:20:12,470 --> 00:20:10,799 cut like knives at a molecular level uh 538 00:20:14,470 --> 00:20:12,480 it goes all the way from that which is 539 00:20:17,110 --> 00:20:14,480 quite primitive technology right the way 540 00:20:19,190 --> 00:20:17,120 through to this idea that by making 541 00:20:20,390 --> 00:20:19,200 perfect court spheres and firing them 542 00:20:22,070 --> 00:20:20,400 out into space 543 00:20:24,630 --> 00:20:22,080 they could actually prove that there was 544 00:20:26,470 --> 00:20:24,640 gravitational drag around planet earth 545 00:20:27,909 --> 00:20:26,480 because of the way these balls function 546 00:20:29,830 --> 00:20:27,919 there's only three sets of perfect 547 00:20:31,110 --> 00:20:29,840 spheres ever been made and one of the 548 00:20:32,950 --> 00:20:31,120 sets is made 549 00:20:35,029 --> 00:20:32,960 from quartz silica so it's it's 550 00:20:37,590 --> 00:20:35,039 enormously advanced science at the same 551 00:20:39,350 --> 00:20:37,600 time as being incredibly primitive and 552 00:20:41,430 --> 00:20:39,360 as you said the skull and the 553 00:20:43,990 --> 00:20:41,440 representation of the school and then 554 00:20:47,029 --> 00:20:44,000 the uses and the functions of silica 555 00:20:49,990 --> 00:20:47,039 they're common pretty much to everybody 556 00:20:51,830 --> 00:20:50,000 everywhere all over planet earth and 557 00:20:53,590 --> 00:20:51,840 you've got this idea that you know once 558 00:20:55,110 --> 00:20:53,600 upon a time known as a super race that 559 00:20:57,350 --> 00:20:55,120 lived on planet earth and they left 560 00:20:58,630 --> 00:20:57,360 behind you know traces and everybody 561 00:21:00,390 --> 00:20:58,640 goes oh well you know it's going to be 562 00:21:02,070 --> 00:21:00,400 the pyramids or you know it's got to be 563 00:21:03,190 --> 00:21:02,080 geometry or you know we should be 564 00:21:05,029 --> 00:21:03,200 looking for this out on the other end 565 00:21:06,149 --> 00:21:05,039 well one of those things one of those 566 00:21:07,270 --> 00:21:06,159 things that seems to have been left 567 00:21:10,710 --> 00:21:07,280 behind 568 00:21:12,630 --> 00:21:10,720 is the properties of quartz silica and 569 00:21:14,230 --> 00:21:12,640 the way that the head is represented and 570 00:21:18,310 --> 00:21:14,240 what it represents 571 00:21:21,270 --> 00:21:18,320 um universally it seems to be as a skull 572 00:21:23,510 --> 00:21:21,280 a representation of the exiting of life 573 00:21:25,029 --> 00:21:23,520 you know um in the same way that birth 574 00:21:26,149 --> 00:21:25,039 and the rest of it is represented as 575 00:21:27,430 --> 00:21:26,159 arriving 576 00:21:29,510 --> 00:21:27,440 and you've got sort of the goddess 577 00:21:32,070 --> 00:21:29,520 culture and all that side of things if 578 00:21:34,789 --> 00:21:32,080 you like the that's a rival well 579 00:21:36,630 --> 00:21:34,799 departure is the school 580 00:21:38,149 --> 00:21:36,640 but when you find it in a lot of the 581 00:21:40,789 --> 00:21:38,159 occult societies and you find it in 582 00:21:43,750 --> 00:21:40,799 freemasonry etc it sits there usually 583 00:21:46,149 --> 00:21:43,760 sits there somewhere prominent to remind 584 00:21:49,190 --> 00:21:46,159 everybody that everybody is mortal you 585 00:21:50,870 --> 00:21:49,200 know nobody gets out of here alive 586 00:21:52,310 --> 00:21:50,880 unless you happen to be resurrected or 587 00:21:54,070 --> 00:21:52,320 translated you know 588 00:21:55,990 --> 00:21:54,080 look you know there are exceptions to 589 00:21:57,190 --> 00:21:56,000 the rule always but you know as a rule 590 00:22:00,310 --> 00:21:57,200 none of us are going to get out of here 591 00:22:01,990 --> 00:22:00,320 alive yeah we have a common bond when it 592 00:22:04,230 --> 00:22:02,000 comes to that 593 00:22:07,190 --> 00:22:04,240 and 594 00:22:11,110 --> 00:22:07,200 something very interesting i find with 595 00:22:12,710 --> 00:22:11,120 these crystal skulls is the belief that 596 00:22:15,510 --> 00:22:12,720 some have and you 597 00:22:16,789 --> 00:22:15,520 surely have probably come across this in 598 00:22:18,789 --> 00:22:16,799 your travels 599 00:22:20,909 --> 00:22:18,799 the belief some have that maybe they 600 00:22:23,190 --> 00:22:20,919 were not made by humans or that 601 00:22:26,149 --> 00:22:23,200 extraterrestrials may be involved in the 602 00:22:28,470 --> 00:22:26,159 production uh they don't have for 603 00:22:30,630 --> 00:22:28,480 example um 604 00:22:32,310 --> 00:22:30,640 the characteristical features of 605 00:22:33,510 --> 00:22:32,320 mesoamerican 606 00:22:36,070 --> 00:22:33,520 uh you know 607 00:22:39,029 --> 00:22:36,080 wooden rods with stone very very very 608 00:22:40,789 --> 00:22:39,039 distinctive marks and and 609 00:22:43,590 --> 00:22:40,799 rudimentary tools 610 00:22:45,909 --> 00:22:43,600 uh that that the aztecs the mayans etc 611 00:22:48,390 --> 00:22:45,919 used to uh carve stone has the 612 00:22:50,710 --> 00:22:48,400 extraterrestrial aspect come across your 613 00:22:53,029 --> 00:22:50,720 radar at all 614 00:22:54,950 --> 00:22:53,039 okay there's two parts for that um one 615 00:22:57,510 --> 00:22:54,960 part of it is the manufacturer of the 616 00:22:59,510 --> 00:22:57,520 schools which using modern day 617 00:23:00,950 --> 00:22:59,520 technology we can actually establish 618 00:23:02,390 --> 00:23:00,960 whether they are 619 00:23:05,590 --> 00:23:02,400 in a sense 620 00:23:06,390 --> 00:23:05,600 real genuinely old schools or modern day 621 00:23:08,149 --> 00:23:06,400 you know 622 00:23:10,310 --> 00:23:08,159 banged out a workshop in the thousands 623 00:23:12,070 --> 00:23:10,320 yesterday kind of schools 624 00:23:13,830 --> 00:23:12,080 by looking at the tool marks on the 625 00:23:15,190 --> 00:23:13,840 schools 626 00:23:16,950 --> 00:23:15,200 i think the one you're thinking of the 627 00:23:17,990 --> 00:23:16,960 main one is the mitchell hedges school 628 00:23:19,590 --> 00:23:18,000 which is 629 00:23:21,110 --> 00:23:19,600 the one that anna mitchell hedges found 630 00:23:24,230 --> 00:23:21,120 under an altar 631 00:23:25,909 --> 00:23:24,240 on an excavation site uh in belize as it 632 00:23:29,510 --> 00:23:25,919 was back then 633 00:23:31,590 --> 00:23:29,520 that one has been uh very rigorously 634 00:23:33,909 --> 00:23:31,600 examined from a microscopic point of 635 00:23:35,270 --> 00:23:33,919 view and there's just no manufacturing 636 00:23:38,070 --> 00:23:35,280 marks on it 637 00:23:39,909 --> 00:23:38,080 so it's supernatural in that sense but 638 00:23:41,830 --> 00:23:39,919 then it just depends how long people sat 639 00:23:43,990 --> 00:23:41,840 there and actually polished it for it 640 00:23:46,390 --> 00:23:44,000 kind of proves beyond all possible doubt 641 00:23:49,430 --> 00:23:46,400 that it's it probably took 100 years to 642 00:23:51,269 --> 00:23:49,440 smooth that down to the level it is now 643 00:23:53,110 --> 00:23:51,279 whoever made it you know because your 644 00:23:55,510 --> 00:23:53,120 court silica is quite difficult to work 645 00:23:57,269 --> 00:23:55,520 with most of the other schools if not 646 00:23:59,750 --> 00:23:57,279 all of the other schools 647 00:24:01,990 --> 00:23:59,760 that appear to be handmade have some 648 00:24:03,830 --> 00:24:02,000 kind of tool marks on them so that's the 649 00:24:06,789 --> 00:24:03,840 really exceptional one 650 00:24:09,669 --> 00:24:06,799 the aliens connection usually that 651 00:24:11,830 --> 00:24:09,679 drifts in it floats in as part of the 652 00:24:13,110 --> 00:24:11,840 idea that the guys that were in south 653 00:24:15,750 --> 00:24:13,120 america 654 00:24:19,110 --> 00:24:15,760 that had these enormous stretched skulls 655 00:24:21,190 --> 00:24:19,120 they had these huge elongated skulls the 656 00:24:22,710 --> 00:24:21,200 idea that because people thought they 657 00:24:24,950 --> 00:24:22,720 were aliens 658 00:24:26,549 --> 00:24:24,960 that maybe it was that particular race 659 00:24:29,430 --> 00:24:26,559 that was producing the skulls that's 660 00:24:31,269 --> 00:24:29,440 your alien connection um 661 00:24:33,110 --> 00:24:31,279 not many people would imagine the grace 662 00:24:35,110 --> 00:24:33,120 coming out of a huge silver disc 663 00:24:37,350 --> 00:24:35,120 carrying you know at school that's 664 00:24:39,350 --> 00:24:37,360 steven spielberg you know 665 00:24:41,510 --> 00:24:39,360 was quite quite firmly in the kingdom of 666 00:24:43,669 --> 00:24:41,520 the crystal skull there um but if 667 00:24:45,350 --> 00:24:43,679 anybody wants to know the background to 668 00:24:47,510 --> 00:24:45,360 that movie you know please buy the book 669 00:24:49,190 --> 00:24:47,520 because the book will explain to you 670 00:24:50,950 --> 00:24:49,200 where the scriptwriters and where 671 00:24:53,029 --> 00:24:50,960 stephen got all his ideas for the movie 672 00:24:54,630 --> 00:24:53,039 from but he's linked them all together 673 00:24:57,029 --> 00:24:54,640 to come up with a scenario at the end 674 00:24:59,430 --> 00:24:57,039 which is you know fully good hollywood 675 00:25:00,710 --> 00:24:59,440 um but the guys with the long schools as 676 00:25:02,070 --> 00:25:00,720 it turns out 677 00:25:03,669 --> 00:25:02,080 south america 678 00:25:05,669 --> 00:25:03,679 archaeologists and scientists are 679 00:25:08,310 --> 00:25:05,679 starting to take them more seriously and 680 00:25:11,350 --> 00:25:08,320 look at them it turns out their dna and 681 00:25:13,350 --> 00:25:11,360 their physical skull structures are very 682 00:25:15,190 --> 00:25:13,360 very different from ours 683 00:25:17,669 --> 00:25:15,200 and it's really starting to look like 684 00:25:20,789 --> 00:25:17,679 we've got another species of human there 685 00:25:23,510 --> 00:25:20,799 that they are still us by definition of 686 00:25:25,990 --> 00:25:23,520 dna but they're just not the same 687 00:25:27,510 --> 00:25:26,000 formulas they're very different and i do 688 00:25:29,430 --> 00:25:27,520 go inside in the earlier parts of the 689 00:25:30,870 --> 00:25:29,440 book when i'm looking at you know a lot 690 00:25:33,190 --> 00:25:30,880 of the fossil record and a lot of the 691 00:25:35,909 --> 00:25:33,200 early remains of humans going back 30 40 692 00:25:38,230 --> 00:25:35,919 000 bc are starting to give up evidence 693 00:25:39,830 --> 00:25:38,240 that we were quite diverse 694 00:25:41,830 --> 00:25:39,840 the same as all the other species on 695 00:25:43,269 --> 00:25:41,840 planet earth you know you have a tiny 696 00:25:44,870 --> 00:25:43,279 little cat in the jungle that will sit 697 00:25:46,710 --> 00:25:44,880 in the palm of your hand or you can 698 00:25:49,190 --> 00:25:46,720 cross a lion and a tiger and get a liger 699 00:25:50,870 --> 00:25:49,200 that's the size of a horse but it looks 700 00:25:53,029 --> 00:25:50,880 like human beings were very much like 701 00:25:54,870 --> 00:25:53,039 that you would have tiny little homo 702 00:25:57,430 --> 00:25:54,880 flurries which are these three three 703 00:25:59,350 --> 00:25:57,440 foot six high guys living on islands out 704 00:26:02,390 --> 00:25:59,360 in the pacific or you could go all the 705 00:26:04,070 --> 00:26:02,400 way through to the biblical giants you 706 00:26:06,870 --> 00:26:04,080 know these enormous 707 00:26:09,350 --> 00:26:06,880 human beings uh robert wadlow who was a 708 00:26:11,909 --> 00:26:09,360 giant over here lived to uh the height 709 00:26:14,070 --> 00:26:11,919 of nine foot eleven he died in his late 710 00:26:15,269 --> 00:26:14,080 twenties that's still pretty substantial 711 00:26:17,590 --> 00:26:15,279 you're still looking at a human being 712 00:26:18,870 --> 00:26:17,600 there that's ten foot massive hands 713 00:26:20,950 --> 00:26:18,880 massive feet 714 00:26:23,510 --> 00:26:20,960 and he's not unique in history so we 715 00:26:26,149 --> 00:26:23,520 have records of people of that size but 716 00:26:27,990 --> 00:26:26,159 the biblical giants you're looking at 20 717 00:26:29,669 --> 00:26:28,000 34 plus 718 00:26:31,990 --> 00:26:29,679 in terms of height 719 00:26:35,430 --> 00:26:32,000 but if you are strictly speaking 720 00:26:38,149 --> 00:26:35,440 sticking to dna and you're a scientist 721 00:26:39,029 --> 00:26:38,159 and an environmentalist you have to 722 00:26:42,230 --> 00:26:39,039 admit 723 00:26:45,110 --> 00:26:42,240 that we as a species should be 724 00:26:48,070 --> 00:26:45,120 as diverse as all the other species 725 00:26:50,470 --> 00:26:48,080 because no species is exempt from that 726 00:26:53,029 --> 00:26:50,480 you know the diversity is present in in 727 00:26:54,870 --> 00:26:53,039 all of all of the different species and 728 00:26:57,190 --> 00:26:54,880 that's proven again by the fossil record 729 00:26:59,350 --> 00:26:57,200 so even extinct species have ended up 730 00:27:01,750 --> 00:26:59,360 you know proving diverse and there are 731 00:27:04,230 --> 00:27:01,760 offshoots and variations and varieties 732 00:27:07,269 --> 00:27:04,240 of species so the same should be true of 733 00:27:09,830 --> 00:27:07,279 us aside from just you know skin color 734 00:27:12,149 --> 00:27:09,840 and minor physical attributes 735 00:27:13,909 --> 00:27:12,159 um so again science is beginning to back 736 00:27:15,830 --> 00:27:13,919 up mythology here you know we're back 737 00:27:17,909 --> 00:27:15,840 into the realms of you know what might 738 00:27:19,669 --> 00:27:17,919 have been nonsense 30 or 40 or 50 years 739 00:27:20,470 --> 00:27:19,679 ago now it's kind of flipping the other 740 00:27:22,070 --> 00:27:20,480 way 741 00:27:23,669 --> 00:27:22,080 it's beginning to look like you know 742 00:27:25,590 --> 00:27:23,679 it's not nonsense actually the the 743 00:27:27,110 --> 00:27:25,600 ancients were absolutely right in a lot 744 00:27:29,269 --> 00:27:27,120 of the legends and the things that they 745 00:27:30,710 --> 00:27:29,279 wrote you know they were correcting what 746 00:27:32,789 --> 00:27:30,720 they were saying that's how it's 747 00:27:35,669 --> 00:27:32,799 beginning to look 748 00:27:36,789 --> 00:27:35,679 yeah i'm so glad you went down this path 749 00:27:37,830 --> 00:27:36,799 because 750 00:27:40,389 --> 00:27:37,840 uh 751 00:27:43,110 --> 00:27:40,399 though and mentioned belize because i 752 00:27:46,470 --> 00:27:43,120 i'm i was originally born in costa rica 753 00:27:48,870 --> 00:27:46,480 and uh there are some stone spheres in 754 00:27:50,789 --> 00:27:48,880 costa rica that 755 00:27:52,549 --> 00:27:50,799 although not related to the crystal 756 00:27:54,870 --> 00:27:52,559 skulls they 757 00:27:57,029 --> 00:27:54,880 provide sort of a more more 758 00:27:58,149 --> 00:27:57,039 documentation that these oddities were 759 00:28:00,230 --> 00:27:58,159 occurring 760 00:28:03,350 --> 00:28:00,240 and these stone spheres are an 761 00:28:04,389 --> 00:28:03,360 assortment of over 300 spheres 762 00:28:07,669 --> 00:28:04,399 um 763 00:28:09,590 --> 00:28:07,679 on this delta on uh isla del cano and 764 00:28:11,269 --> 00:28:09,600 locally they are kind of known as the 765 00:28:13,110 --> 00:28:11,279 they call them the bolas the piedra and 766 00:28:15,029 --> 00:28:13,120 they're huge rocks 767 00:28:17,510 --> 00:28:15,039 perfectly smooth 768 00:28:19,510 --> 00:28:17,520 they can't figure out 769 00:28:21,830 --> 00:28:19,520 in that time period 770 00:28:23,909 --> 00:28:21,840 first of all how they were made it seems 771 00:28:26,470 --> 00:28:23,919 absolutely absurd 772 00:28:27,669 --> 00:28:26,480 that these spheres were made and to that 773 00:28:29,110 --> 00:28:27,679 extent 774 00:28:30,950 --> 00:28:29,120 and 775 00:28:33,590 --> 00:28:30,960 you know it is 776 00:28:35,990 --> 00:28:33,600 like you said that what was the purpose 777 00:28:37,909 --> 00:28:36,000 what was the purpose and i also find it 778 00:28:39,350 --> 00:28:37,919 very interesting that 779 00:28:41,110 --> 00:28:39,360 there is 780 00:28:43,029 --> 00:28:41,120 in a lot of cultures in central and 781 00:28:44,549 --> 00:28:43,039 south america as you said 782 00:28:47,269 --> 00:28:44,559 we have 783 00:28:49,750 --> 00:28:47,279 the other very strange aspect which is 784 00:28:51,510 --> 00:28:49,760 these pyramids which we also see in 785 00:28:52,950 --> 00:28:51,520 egypt although they're step pyramids in 786 00:28:55,350 --> 00:28:52,960 the americas 787 00:28:57,269 --> 00:28:55,360 and it brings me back to a lot of the 788 00:28:59,990 --> 00:28:57,279 work that many like brian forrester are 789 00:29:02,950 --> 00:29:00,000 doing and these elongated skulls it all 790 00:29:04,870 --> 00:29:02,960 seems to be connected doesn't it 791 00:29:06,950 --> 00:29:04,880 i believe it is yes i actually do 792 00:29:09,669 --> 00:29:06,960 believe it is connected um the costa 793 00:29:12,230 --> 00:29:09,679 rica balls themselves just prove 794 00:29:14,789 --> 00:29:12,240 that as far as messing about which stone 795 00:29:18,389 --> 00:29:14,799 is concerned they were far better at it 796 00:29:21,029 --> 00:29:18,399 in the past than we are now so finding 797 00:29:22,950 --> 00:29:21,039 advanced forms of stonework especially 798 00:29:24,710 --> 00:29:22,960 in south america's 799 00:29:26,710 --> 00:29:24,720 shouldn't come as a surprise to people 800 00:29:29,269 --> 00:29:26,720 you know the the face masks the 801 00:29:32,389 --> 00:29:29,279 sculptures themselves the skulls the 802 00:29:35,350 --> 00:29:32,399 balls the stonework um i've i've been 803 00:29:37,510 --> 00:29:35,360 down to um uh you've championed insulin 804 00:29:39,110 --> 00:29:37,520 myself and i've had a wander round and a 805 00:29:40,710 --> 00:29:39,120 look at what's down there 806 00:29:42,470 --> 00:29:40,720 and you know just because it's covered 807 00:29:44,389 --> 00:29:42,480 in trees doesn't mean it's primitive you 808 00:29:46,470 --> 00:29:44,399 know get rid of the jungle and there's a 809 00:29:48,230 --> 00:29:46,480 breathtaking culture down there to match 810 00:29:49,669 --> 00:29:48,240 anything you'll find anywhere in the 811 00:29:51,909 --> 00:29:49,679 world you know it's in some ways it's 812 00:29:54,870 --> 00:29:51,919 better than egypt you know it's it's 813 00:29:55,750 --> 00:29:54,880 just breathtaking so the possibility 814 00:29:58,230 --> 00:29:55,760 for 815 00:30:01,830 --> 00:29:58,240 the advanced technology down there is is 816 00:30:04,070 --> 00:30:01,840 is absolute you know why not um 817 00:30:07,350 --> 00:30:04,080 and then 818 00:30:11,029 --> 00:30:07,360 like you say the uh 819 00:30:12,310 --> 00:30:11,039 the connectedness of different 820 00:30:15,909 --> 00:30:12,320 scattered 821 00:30:19,269 --> 00:30:15,919 the world 822 00:30:20,230 --> 00:30:19,279 is something that as 21st century people 823 00:30:24,070 --> 00:30:20,240 we 824 00:30:26,149 --> 00:30:24,080 past i mean the victorians always used 825 00:30:28,870 --> 00:30:26,159 to say it's primitive you know they were 826 00:30:30,710 --> 00:30:28,880 all isolated you know we're advancing 827 00:30:33,350 --> 00:30:30,720 our technology's moving forward we're 828 00:30:35,430 --> 00:30:33,360 getting better etc so the idea that 829 00:30:38,470 --> 00:30:35,440 actually no that's not true the idea 830 00:30:41,990 --> 00:30:38,480 that there were advanced connected 831 00:30:44,389 --> 00:30:42,000 you know societies with a uniform 832 00:30:46,070 --> 00:30:44,399 universal paradigms that they work to 833 00:30:47,990 --> 00:30:46,080 where i think they have things in common 834 00:30:50,470 --> 00:30:48,000 that doesn't sit very well in the 21st 835 00:30:51,750 --> 00:30:50,480 century with a lot of people but you 836 00:30:53,830 --> 00:30:51,760 know why 837 00:30:55,669 --> 00:30:53,840 just the guys with the enormous stretch 838 00:30:57,909 --> 00:30:55,679 heads who were building step pyramids in 839 00:31:00,070 --> 00:30:57,919 south america why they couldn't have 840 00:31:01,750 --> 00:31:00,080 stayed in communication with the guy 841 00:31:04,549 --> 00:31:01,760 with it guys with enormous stretch heads 842 00:31:06,870 --> 00:31:04,559 building step pyramids in egypt or 843 00:31:08,310 --> 00:31:06,880 anywhere else for that matter uh why 844 00:31:10,549 --> 00:31:08,320 they couldn't have stayed in contact i 845 00:31:12,389 --> 00:31:10,559 don't know you know 846 00:31:14,149 --> 00:31:12,399 whereas now we're flying around up in 847 00:31:17,110 --> 00:31:14,159 the air with airplanes and driving 848 00:31:19,590 --> 00:31:17,120 petrol driven vehicles up and down roads 849 00:31:21,430 --> 00:31:19,600 back then they were using the wind and 850 00:31:23,110 --> 00:31:21,440 they were on the oceans and they were 851 00:31:25,430 --> 00:31:23,120 using the rivers 852 00:31:26,870 --> 00:31:25,440 but you know as far as human beings are 853 00:31:28,470 --> 00:31:26,880 concerned they were every bit as 854 00:31:30,470 --> 00:31:28,480 intelligent and clever as we are they 855 00:31:32,389 --> 00:31:30,480 were just doing things differently we're 856 00:31:34,149 --> 00:31:32,399 just doing it a different way 857 00:31:34,870 --> 00:31:34,159 and i think what's happening is people 858 00:31:36,789 --> 00:31:34,880 have 859 00:31:38,470 --> 00:31:36,799 lost sight of that fact 860 00:31:40,470 --> 00:31:38,480 you know they you know if you got hold 861 00:31:42,389 --> 00:31:40,480 of one or two of the guys from three or 862 00:31:43,909 --> 00:31:42,399 four thousand years ago and stuck them 863 00:31:46,230 --> 00:31:43,919 in a suit and planted them in the middle 864 00:31:47,990 --> 00:31:46,240 of a modern city you know sooner or 865 00:31:50,470 --> 00:31:48,000 later they come to terms with everything 866 00:31:52,870 --> 00:31:50,480 very very quickly because they think the 867 00:31:55,750 --> 00:31:52,880 same as as we do you know the oldest 868 00:31:58,230 --> 00:31:55,760 form of us actually all this form of um 869 00:32:00,149 --> 00:31:58,240 homo sapien sapiens is coming out of the 870 00:32:02,149 --> 00:32:00,159 czech republic czechoslovakia and 871 00:32:05,190 --> 00:32:02,159 they've actually got remains 872 00:32:07,669 --> 00:32:05,200 identifiable remains of us going back to 873 00:32:09,669 --> 00:32:07,679 42 000 bc 874 00:32:12,149 --> 00:32:09,679 and there's organic deposits on these 875 00:32:14,070 --> 00:32:12,159 remains so the dating's pretty good and 876 00:32:14,870 --> 00:32:14,080 that's where a lot of this dna is coming 877 00:32:17,430 --> 00:32:14,880 from 878 00:32:19,509 --> 00:32:17,440 because you know the preservation is is 879 00:32:21,430 --> 00:32:19,519 excellent and these guys you wouldn't be 880 00:32:23,269 --> 00:32:21,440 able to tell them apart from us they 881 00:32:26,070 --> 00:32:23,279 were exactly the same in every respect 882 00:32:28,549 --> 00:32:26,080 as us that's a long time 883 00:32:29,669 --> 00:32:28,559 you know they've been absent for 50 000 884 00:32:31,110 --> 00:32:29,679 years 885 00:32:34,470 --> 00:32:31,120 so we're now looking at what they've 886 00:32:36,950 --> 00:32:34,480 left behind and all we've got is is the 887 00:32:38,470 --> 00:32:36,960 remnants you know there's so much of 888 00:32:40,630 --> 00:32:38,480 what they were and what they did that's 889 00:32:42,710 --> 00:32:40,640 disappeared that what's left looks 890 00:32:44,470 --> 00:32:42,720 really strange to us 891 00:32:47,029 --> 00:32:44,480 but i don't think we should be surprised 892 00:32:50,950 --> 00:32:47,039 by how advanced these things are or how 893 00:32:53,909 --> 00:32:50,960 universal a lot of the elements are 894 00:32:56,549 --> 00:32:53,919 it is very strange how the world as as 895 00:32:57,990 --> 00:32:56,559 you said is a lot smaller than it seems 896 00:32:59,909 --> 00:32:58,000 and that we 897 00:33:01,669 --> 00:32:59,919 as human beings 898 00:33:03,990 --> 00:33:01,679 the characteristics that we point out is 899 00:33:05,669 --> 00:33:04,000 different are very minut as you said and 900 00:33:07,190 --> 00:33:05,679 i'm so glad you said that 901 00:33:08,789 --> 00:33:07,200 because 902 00:33:10,470 --> 00:33:08,799 really you know if we were another 903 00:33:12,070 --> 00:33:10,480 creature looking at ourselves we all 904 00:33:13,909 --> 00:33:12,080 pretty much look the same other than 905 00:33:15,909 --> 00:33:13,919 different shades and colors and things 906 00:33:18,470 --> 00:33:15,919 like that yeah yeah and from an 907 00:33:20,070 --> 00:33:18,480 archaeological standpoint 908 00:33:23,029 --> 00:33:20,080 you know the 909 00:33:26,149 --> 00:33:23,039 the aztec crystal skull and it's an 910 00:33:30,070 --> 00:33:27,669 aztec legend 911 00:33:32,710 --> 00:33:30,080 holds that you know their forefathers 912 00:33:36,230 --> 00:33:32,720 fathers migrated to mexico city 913 00:33:38,549 --> 00:33:36,240 uh from a land to the north a land of 914 00:33:40,070 --> 00:33:38,559 red rocks and four rivers 915 00:33:42,470 --> 00:33:40,080 and 916 00:33:44,230 --> 00:33:42,480 something strange i do a lot of research 917 00:33:46,070 --> 00:33:44,240 in utah one of the states here in the 918 00:33:47,509 --> 00:33:46,080 united states that has a lot of high 919 00:33:48,870 --> 00:33:47,519 strangeness 920 00:33:51,190 --> 00:33:48,880 and 921 00:33:53,430 --> 00:33:51,200 where the aztecs are concerned it is 922 00:33:55,830 --> 00:33:53,440 appearing more and more likely that it's 923 00:33:57,269 --> 00:33:55,840 possible that one of their homelands was 924 00:34:00,149 --> 00:33:57,279 located 925 00:34:02,230 --> 00:34:00,159 in utah and that there's two researchers 926 00:34:04,830 --> 00:34:02,240 in particular that have claimed they 927 00:34:07,269 --> 00:34:04,840 have found the aztec homeland in utah 928 00:34:10,470 --> 00:34:07,279 now interestingly 929 00:34:13,030 --> 00:34:10,480 um you know going to things like mummies 930 00:34:14,710 --> 00:34:13,040 which are technically usually considered 931 00:34:16,629 --> 00:34:14,720 you know you think egypt when you think 932 00:34:19,349 --> 00:34:16,639 mummy 933 00:34:21,109 --> 00:34:19,359 there is mummies all over the world in 934 00:34:24,629 --> 00:34:21,119 fact one of the oldest is found in 935 00:34:27,430 --> 00:34:24,639 nevada in the middle of the desert and 936 00:34:29,430 --> 00:34:27,440 it's very strange that 937 00:34:32,310 --> 00:34:29,440 as you said uh the 938 00:34:35,030 --> 00:34:32,320 the world especially now with with all 939 00:34:36,069 --> 00:34:35,040 the dismay and the brokenness of of our 940 00:34:37,589 --> 00:34:36,079 world 941 00:34:39,990 --> 00:34:37,599 that all these things when you break 942 00:34:41,669 --> 00:34:40,000 them down they simplify and it seems as 943 00:34:44,550 --> 00:34:41,679 if they have a common origin have you 944 00:34:47,909 --> 00:34:44,560 found that in your research 945 00:34:49,909 --> 00:34:47,919 um yes basically i've been doing it long 946 00:34:52,389 --> 00:34:49,919 enough now to know that if you'd have 947 00:34:54,629 --> 00:34:52,399 gone back to say the 1970s 1980s when i 948 00:34:57,670 --> 00:34:54,639 was training as an archaeologist 949 00:35:01,030 --> 00:34:57,680 in america a lot of the significant 950 00:35:03,190 --> 00:35:01,040 discoveries that didn't fit that didn't 951 00:35:05,190 --> 00:35:03,200 sit well with the way that america 952 00:35:07,190 --> 00:35:05,200 wanted to to go in at that time the 953 00:35:09,030 --> 00:35:07,200 direction it was going a lot of them 954 00:35:10,710 --> 00:35:09,040 were just ignored they were they were 955 00:35:13,349 --> 00:35:10,720 covered up they were stuck in boxes in 956 00:35:17,430 --> 00:35:13,359 store rooms etc etc 957 00:35:19,270 --> 00:35:17,440 with the new um new age of technology 958 00:35:21,270 --> 00:35:19,280 and connectedness and the internet and 959 00:35:23,670 --> 00:35:21,280 the sort of thing we've got now 960 00:35:26,150 --> 00:35:23,680 when something's found in america it 961 00:35:28,710 --> 00:35:26,160 tends to get out pretty fast 962 00:35:30,550 --> 00:35:28,720 um so things like you know the egyptian 963 00:35:32,630 --> 00:35:30,560 remains in america the celtic remains in 964 00:35:34,630 --> 00:35:32,640 america the medieval remains in america 965 00:35:37,829 --> 00:35:34,640 the viking remains in america 966 00:35:39,910 --> 00:35:37,839 prehistoric remains human remains fossil 967 00:35:41,270 --> 00:35:39,920 remains i mean most recently i believe 968 00:35:44,790 --> 00:35:41,280 there's footprints out there you're 969 00:35:46,230 --> 00:35:44,800 looking at 22 23 000 bc now that have 970 00:35:48,069 --> 00:35:46,240 been recovered 971 00:35:50,150 --> 00:35:48,079 clearly 972 00:35:52,150 --> 00:35:50,160 the american continent back then was as 973 00:35:54,150 --> 00:35:52,160 connected to everything else as any 974 00:35:55,510 --> 00:35:54,160 other continent you know 975 00:35:57,190 --> 00:35:55,520 there was one lady actually came back 976 00:35:59,829 --> 00:35:57,200 from america she found this ripple 977 00:36:01,510 --> 00:35:59,839 museum out in a backwater somewhere and 978 00:36:03,270 --> 00:36:01,520 some metal detectors had picked up this 979 00:36:05,589 --> 00:36:03,280 relax head 980 00:36:07,750 --> 00:36:05,599 and it had ended up in in this cabinet 981 00:36:10,150 --> 00:36:07,760 and she brought me a photo of it it's 982 00:36:12,630 --> 00:36:10,160 identical to the bronze age axe heads 983 00:36:15,430 --> 00:36:12,640 that are found in britain and europe 984 00:36:17,270 --> 00:36:15,440 but he got it from a secure location so 985 00:36:19,190 --> 00:36:17,280 at the end of the day everybody 986 00:36:21,910 --> 00:36:19,200 everywhere she's like i said earlier to 987 00:36:23,829 --> 00:36:21,920 be communicating with each other 988 00:36:25,670 --> 00:36:23,839 but then that makes things a little 989 00:36:28,390 --> 00:36:25,680 uncomfortable for some of the tribes 990 00:36:30,550 --> 00:36:28,400 that are native to to america because 991 00:36:33,030 --> 00:36:30,560 obviously they're in conflict with you 992 00:36:35,030 --> 00:36:33,040 know people have come in later ages so 993 00:36:38,310 --> 00:36:35,040 that that kind of upsets the balance a 994 00:36:40,069 --> 00:36:38,320 bit but there always was legends even 995 00:36:43,670 --> 00:36:40,079 with the native american indians who 996 00:36:45,190 --> 00:36:43,680 were legends there was a white tribe 997 00:36:47,990 --> 00:36:45,200 of indians 998 00:36:49,750 --> 00:36:48,000 and over here in the library of wales 999 00:36:51,510 --> 00:36:49,760 believe it or not we've got this part of 1000 00:36:54,550 --> 00:36:51,520 our country known as wales there's a 1001 00:36:55,990 --> 00:36:54,560 library there that has a uh three copies 1002 00:36:58,790 --> 00:36:56,000 of a pamphlet 1003 00:37:00,310 --> 00:36:58,800 that was printed in the 1620s so you're 1004 00:37:01,510 --> 00:37:00,320 going back to the days of early 1005 00:37:03,750 --> 00:37:01,520 settlement 1006 00:37:06,230 --> 00:37:03,760 and this pamphlet gives an account of 1007 00:37:08,310 --> 00:37:06,240 how a group of people from one of the 1008 00:37:10,069 --> 00:37:08,320 valleys in wales one of the villages in 1009 00:37:13,510 --> 00:37:10,079 wales decided they were going to 1010 00:37:15,750 --> 00:37:13,520 emigrate to the newfound land of america 1011 00:37:17,430 --> 00:37:15,760 so they emigrated over there to america 1012 00:37:19,510 --> 00:37:17,440 what it also says 1013 00:37:21,510 --> 00:37:19,520 is in america one of the native american 1014 00:37:23,270 --> 00:37:21,520 indian tribes said okay we're going to 1015 00:37:24,630 --> 00:37:23,280 get on the boats and we're going to come 1016 00:37:26,390 --> 00:37:24,640 the other way 1017 00:37:27,589 --> 00:37:26,400 and they settled in a valley here in 1018 00:37:30,750 --> 00:37:27,599 wales 1019 00:37:33,030 --> 00:37:30,760 so there was a complete exchange 1020 00:37:36,150 --> 00:37:33,040 350 years ago 1021 00:37:38,470 --> 00:37:36,160 of two tribes in effect won a celtic 1022 00:37:40,950 --> 00:37:38,480 tribe from wales and the other a native 1023 00:37:44,069 --> 00:37:40,960 american tribe from america and they 1024 00:37:46,150 --> 00:37:44,079 swapped now apparently i have been told 1025 00:37:47,910 --> 00:37:46,160 that some of the dna that's coming out 1026 00:37:51,190 --> 00:37:47,920 of this valley in wales proves that that 1027 00:37:52,630 --> 00:37:51,200 story is true but there are so few of 1028 00:37:54,710 --> 00:37:52,640 these pamphlets left i think there's 1029 00:37:56,230 --> 00:37:54,720 only probably half a dozen left of them 1030 00:37:58,550 --> 00:37:56,240 in the world they were printed early 1031 00:38:00,069 --> 00:37:58,560 printed pamphlets but things like that 1032 00:38:02,550 --> 00:38:00,079 you think well hang on if they could do 1033 00:38:04,870 --> 00:38:02,560 that in the 1600s 1034 00:38:07,349 --> 00:38:04,880 what was going on in the 1500s and the 1035 00:38:09,829 --> 00:38:07,359 1400s and you know going back to the 1036 00:38:11,589 --> 00:38:09,839 1200s when supposedly people went from 1037 00:38:13,670 --> 00:38:11,599 scotland you know you go all the way 1038 00:38:15,829 --> 00:38:13,680 back to the 900s when you've got 1039 00:38:18,470 --> 00:38:15,839 coracles sailing out of ireland you know 1040 00:38:19,750 --> 00:38:18,480 across the sea again and 1041 00:38:21,910 --> 00:38:19,760 you know it just 1042 00:38:24,470 --> 00:38:21,920 i don't think human beings were any less 1043 00:38:26,550 --> 00:38:24,480 adventurous back then as we are now it 1044 00:38:28,470 --> 00:38:26,560 just took longer to do things 1045 00:38:30,150 --> 00:38:28,480 you know and why not could why not come 1046 00:38:32,390 --> 00:38:30,160 to america you know what a fantastic 1047 00:38:34,950 --> 00:38:32,400 land what an incredible adventure that 1048 00:38:36,710 --> 00:38:34,960 would be for for folks you know 1049 00:38:38,470 --> 00:38:36,720 i mean knights and armors in medieval 1050 00:38:40,630 --> 00:38:38,480 times you know they decided to go on 1051 00:38:42,550 --> 00:38:40,640 crusade they thought nothing of spending 1052 00:38:44,870 --> 00:38:42,560 three years to you know wander out to 1053 00:38:46,950 --> 00:38:44,880 the middle east and back so why not go 1054 00:38:48,790 --> 00:38:46,960 in the other direction you know why not 1055 00:38:50,790 --> 00:38:48,800 that often go across the atlantic and 1056 00:38:52,310 --> 00:38:50,800 see what's over there you know it's it's 1057 00:38:54,550 --> 00:38:52,320 nonsense to believe that these things 1058 00:38:56,310 --> 00:38:54,560 didn't happen you know they are quite 1059 00:38:57,829 --> 00:38:56,320 obviously they did happen 1060 00:38:59,829 --> 00:38:57,839 um there's a book actually that was 1061 00:39:02,390 --> 00:38:59,839 produced i think was in the late 1970s 1062 00:39:03,589 --> 00:39:02,400 by an archaeologist called barry fell 1063 00:39:05,030 --> 00:39:03,599 and it's called literally it's just 1064 00:39:06,390 --> 00:39:05,040 called america 1065 00:39:08,230 --> 00:39:06,400 bc 1066 00:39:09,750 --> 00:39:08,240 and it was so radical back then i think 1067 00:39:11,190 --> 00:39:09,760 it was banned i think you could only buy 1068 00:39:12,950 --> 00:39:11,200 it elsewhere but you couldn't buy it in 1069 00:39:14,310 --> 00:39:12,960 the states so if people want to go and 1070 00:39:15,589 --> 00:39:14,320 track that down it'll be secondhand 1071 00:39:17,030 --> 00:39:15,599 it'll be on amazon or something 1072 00:39:20,069 --> 00:39:17,040 somewhere go and have a look at that 1073 00:39:22,310 --> 00:39:20,079 it's uh america bc by barry fell and the 1074 00:39:25,190 --> 00:39:22,320 stuff in that will just absolutely blow 1075 00:39:26,950 --> 00:39:25,200 your mind it really will 1076 00:39:29,829 --> 00:39:26,960 i'm sure that's one i haven't come 1077 00:39:31,910 --> 00:39:29,839 across but it sounds fantastic oh chip 1078 00:39:33,829 --> 00:39:31,920 check it out it's got irish oh gam in it 1079 00:39:35,510 --> 00:39:33,839 that's out there on rocks in america 1080 00:39:37,430 --> 00:39:35,520 it's got a roman shipwreck that's out 1081 00:39:39,430 --> 00:39:37,440 there in america it's got all the 1082 00:39:41,670 --> 00:39:39,440 egyptian stuff it's oh honestly it's 1083 00:39:42,710 --> 00:39:41,680 unbelievable it's well worth a look 1084 00:39:43,829 --> 00:39:42,720 now 1085 00:39:48,230 --> 00:39:43,839 the uh 1086 00:39:49,750 --> 00:39:48,240 the internet has really brought about a 1087 00:39:51,750 --> 00:39:49,760 lot of good things 1088 00:39:53,910 --> 00:39:51,760 the communication the ability for you 1089 00:39:57,510 --> 00:39:53,920 and i to be talking right now is 1090 00:40:00,470 --> 00:39:57,520 magical in my opinion and 1091 00:40:02,390 --> 00:40:00,480 by the same token before we had things 1092 00:40:04,470 --> 00:40:02,400 like the internet 1093 00:40:06,950 --> 00:40:04,480 many 1094 00:40:10,230 --> 00:40:06,960 stories legends or myths i guess i 1095 00:40:12,790 --> 00:40:10,240 should call them of larger organizations 1096 00:40:15,510 --> 00:40:12,800 the smithsonian is among them 1097 00:40:17,910 --> 00:40:15,520 uh sort of hoarding these legends or 1098 00:40:20,790 --> 00:40:17,920 trying to keep them from the public eye 1099 00:40:22,630 --> 00:40:20,800 is there any truth to that or is it 1100 00:40:25,190 --> 00:40:22,640 possible that the powers that be have 1101 00:40:27,109 --> 00:40:25,200 tried to hold on to some of these relics 1102 00:40:30,630 --> 00:40:27,119 for their own purposes and not let the 1103 00:40:33,750 --> 00:40:30,640 people understand them 1104 00:40:35,510 --> 00:40:33,760 uh well the short answer is yes 1105 00:40:37,349 --> 00:40:35,520 but uh it wouldn't be much of a radio 1106 00:40:39,030 --> 00:40:37,359 broadcast if i left it at that uh 1107 00:40:40,710 --> 00:40:39,040 because i'm on the uh because i was it 1108 00:40:42,150 --> 00:40:40,720 were on the other side of the fence i am 1109 00:40:44,150 --> 00:40:42,160 actually one of those strange 1110 00:40:45,030 --> 00:40:44,160 organization people that come from that 1111 00:40:47,270 --> 00:40:45,040 side 1112 00:40:49,190 --> 00:40:47,280 uh it's more complicated than that there 1113 00:40:51,270 --> 00:40:49,200 are a number of different reasons why 1114 00:40:53,109 --> 00:40:51,280 something would be kept a secret 1115 00:40:54,870 --> 00:40:53,119 uh there's practical reasons like you 1116 00:40:57,510 --> 00:40:54,880 wouldn't want people to perhaps know 1117 00:41:00,630 --> 00:40:57,520 where it was found or you know its 1118 00:41:03,030 --> 00:41:00,640 existence is under investigation uh you 1119 00:41:04,630 --> 00:41:03,040 know tests are being done or whatever um 1120 00:41:06,470 --> 00:41:04,640 it goes right the way across the board 1121 00:41:08,309 --> 00:41:06,480 all kinds of political reasons all kinds 1122 00:41:09,829 --> 00:41:08,319 of private reasons until you get to the 1123 00:41:11,670 --> 00:41:09,839 other extreme where there used to be 1124 00:41:12,950 --> 00:41:11,680 this thing where you couldn't actually 1125 00:41:15,109 --> 00:41:12,960 destroy 1126 00:41:16,550 --> 00:41:15,119 somebody's um 1127 00:41:19,430 --> 00:41:16,560 how could i put it 1128 00:41:21,829 --> 00:41:19,440 their lifelong work as it were there you 1129 00:41:23,510 --> 00:41:21,839 know their career you couldn't destroy 1130 00:41:26,470 --> 00:41:23,520 that by revealing something that 1131 00:41:28,150 --> 00:41:26,480 undermined them so as an act of respect 1132 00:41:30,630 --> 00:41:28,160 i think a lot of people were allowed to 1133 00:41:32,470 --> 00:41:30,640 rabbit on about complete nonsense for 1134 00:41:33,750 --> 00:41:32,480 far too long 1135 00:41:35,349 --> 00:41:33,760 and that's how you end up with this 1136 00:41:36,870 --> 00:41:35,359 situation where there's just lots of 1137 00:41:39,510 --> 00:41:36,880 stuff that's been accepted for years and 1138 00:41:40,870 --> 00:41:39,520 years and years and never corrected you 1139 00:41:42,470 --> 00:41:40,880 know nobody's ever come along and gone 1140 00:41:43,990 --> 00:41:42,480 ah that isn't true 1141 00:41:45,430 --> 00:41:44,000 um i've done this in a few other 1142 00:41:47,990 --> 00:41:45,440 interviews as well and i'm sure somebody 1143 00:41:51,030 --> 00:41:48,000 will come and you know uh take odds with 1144 00:41:52,470 --> 00:41:51,040 me at some point but evolution evolution 1145 00:41:54,950 --> 00:41:52,480 is one of the classics i've got a cat 1146 00:41:55,910 --> 00:41:54,960 here by okay yeah 1147 00:41:57,990 --> 00:41:55,920 um 1148 00:42:00,309 --> 00:41:58,000 evolution is the classic one because uh 1149 00:42:03,190 --> 00:42:00,319 dna and dna studies there's no doubt 1150 00:42:05,030 --> 00:42:03,200 evolution just doesn't work that way 1151 00:42:07,190 --> 00:42:05,040 sorry he's tangled up in my uh my 1152 00:42:09,910 --> 00:42:07,200 headset here clear off 1153 00:42:12,550 --> 00:42:09,920 there we go uh anyway so yeah evolution 1154 00:42:15,270 --> 00:42:12,560 doesn't work that way um because dna 1155 00:42:16,069 --> 00:42:15,280 doesn't change you know um dna wise 1156 00:42:21,990 --> 00:42:16,079 we're 1157 00:42:24,069 --> 00:42:22,000 and chimpanzees and apes and all that 1158 00:42:25,349 --> 00:42:24,079 yes they're somewhere further down the 1159 00:42:26,470 --> 00:42:25,359 line but that's not what we're the 1160 00:42:28,309 --> 00:42:26,480 closest to 1161 00:42:29,349 --> 00:42:28,319 but that's been known for years you know 1162 00:42:32,630 --> 00:42:29,359 um 1163 00:42:35,190 --> 00:42:32,640 darwin's laws of of modification and 1164 00:42:37,190 --> 00:42:35,200 adaptation and yes they're fine no 1165 00:42:39,270 --> 00:42:37,200 issues with those at all but nothing 1166 00:42:41,190 --> 00:42:39,280 changes into anything else and i think 1167 00:42:43,670 --> 00:42:41,200 darwin knew that he actually admitted 1168 00:42:46,150 --> 00:42:43,680 that he you know as time went on science 1169 00:42:48,710 --> 00:42:46,160 would eventually you know put that 1170 00:42:50,550 --> 00:42:48,720 theory to bed but it's taken too long so 1171 00:42:52,069 --> 00:42:50,560 like you say being connected having the 1172 00:42:54,630 --> 00:42:52,079 internet being able to get the truth out 1173 00:42:56,470 --> 00:42:54,640 there now uh and actually being able to 1174 00:42:58,230 --> 00:42:56,480 say no that's not right but this is 1175 00:43:01,030 --> 00:42:58,240 right and you know pushing the 1176 00:43:02,950 --> 00:43:01,040 boundaries um it's enabling us worldwide 1177 00:43:05,109 --> 00:43:02,960 to move at a 1178 00:43:08,390 --> 00:43:05,119 a much faster pace 1179 00:43:10,150 --> 00:43:08,400 there are still things that i think are 1180 00:43:12,470 --> 00:43:10,160 covered up in inverted commas i think 1181 00:43:14,870 --> 00:43:12,480 there are still things that 1182 00:43:16,790 --> 00:43:14,880 the powers that be probably don't want 1183 00:43:18,790 --> 00:43:16,800 people in general to know 1184 00:43:21,109 --> 00:43:18,800 um some of that i think is social 1185 00:43:23,030 --> 00:43:21,119 structuring some of its political 1186 00:43:24,230 --> 00:43:23,040 um some of it i just don't think it's 1187 00:43:26,630 --> 00:43:24,240 necessary 1188 00:43:28,870 --> 00:43:26,640 for everybody to know you know it's not 1189 00:43:30,790 --> 00:43:28,880 relevant it's not important if there is 1190 00:43:34,550 --> 00:43:30,800 something though that does come out that 1191 00:43:36,870 --> 00:43:34,560 is really really vital i think now it it 1192 00:43:38,309 --> 00:43:36,880 has wings you know it flies it goes all 1193 00:43:39,670 --> 00:43:38,319 around the world you know people do get 1194 00:43:41,030 --> 00:43:39,680 to know about it 1195 00:43:42,790 --> 00:43:41,040 eventually 1196 00:43:44,950 --> 00:43:42,800 you know god bless the whistleblowers 1197 00:43:46,550 --> 00:43:44,960 you know long long may they reign 1198 00:43:48,150 --> 00:43:46,560 um you know 1199 00:43:50,790 --> 00:43:48,160 hopefully that little book i put out as 1200 00:43:52,390 --> 00:43:50,800 well will inspire 1201 00:43:54,069 --> 00:43:52,400 others to say 1202 00:43:56,069 --> 00:43:54,079 no we're not really sure about this this 1203 00:43:58,230 --> 00:43:56,079 isn't right you know this this needs 1204 00:44:00,390 --> 00:43:58,240 correcting and you know it'd be nice if 1205 00:44:02,710 --> 00:44:00,400 it's just the first step you know it 1206 00:44:05,430 --> 00:44:02,720 needs to be the first of a string of 1207 00:44:07,190 --> 00:44:05,440 books that start to bring forward what's 1208 00:44:09,349 --> 00:44:07,200 actually physically out there and what's 1209 00:44:11,270 --> 00:44:09,359 physically happened you know what people 1210 00:44:12,630 --> 00:44:11,280 are physically discovering so yeah i 1211 00:44:14,790 --> 00:44:12,640 think there's been there has definitely 1212 00:44:16,950 --> 00:44:14,800 been you know 101 different reasons why 1213 00:44:19,349 --> 00:44:16,960 things have been covered up uh i 1214 00:44:21,270 --> 00:44:19,359 personally don't necessarily approve of 1215 00:44:23,270 --> 00:44:21,280 that i have to say that 1216 00:44:24,870 --> 00:44:23,280 i don't like the idea that you know you 1217 00:44:27,349 --> 00:44:24,880 dig something up you discover something 1218 00:44:29,270 --> 00:44:27,359 and then you keep it a secret i i'm not 1219 00:44:32,069 --> 00:44:29,280 a great fan of doing that i'm really not 1220 00:44:34,630 --> 00:44:32,079 but you'll gather that from the book 1221 00:44:36,950 --> 00:44:34,640 and the book has great reviews by the 1222 00:44:38,870 --> 00:44:36,960 way mark i thought the oh thank you 1223 00:44:41,030 --> 00:44:38,880 now the the image on the front of the 1224 00:44:43,109 --> 00:44:41,040 book is that actually your skull that's 1225 00:44:44,870 --> 00:44:43,119 a fascinating image 1226 00:44:46,470 --> 00:44:44,880 um 1227 00:44:50,230 --> 00:44:46,480 it's an interesting story behind that 1228 00:44:52,069 --> 00:44:50,240 actually digressing slightly uh i i 1229 00:44:54,069 --> 00:44:52,079 mopped that image up i did it as a 1230 00:44:55,829 --> 00:44:54,079 mock-up to to say this is how i would 1231 00:44:58,069 --> 00:44:55,839 like the cover to look like and i sent 1232 00:44:59,589 --> 00:44:58,079 it to the publisher and the publisher 1233 00:45:00,870 --> 00:44:59,599 went yeah fine fantastic i've got the 1234 00:45:02,550 --> 00:45:00,880 image for the front cover now and i'm 1235 00:45:04,630 --> 00:45:02,560 like well hang on whoa that's just a 1236 00:45:06,230 --> 00:45:04,640 rough artwork and he's like no that'll 1237 00:45:08,630 --> 00:45:06,240 do that's fine we'll just improve the 1238 00:45:10,870 --> 00:45:08,640 quality that'll do it's it's a 1239 00:45:12,470 --> 00:45:10,880 reproduction the outside crystal is a 1240 00:45:14,710 --> 00:45:12,480 reproduction of the mitchell hedges 1241 00:45:17,030 --> 00:45:14,720 school because i wanted one that was 1242 00:45:18,950 --> 00:45:17,040 really clear a lot of crystal skulls are 1243 00:45:20,309 --> 00:45:18,960 not are not clear you know they're milky 1244 00:45:23,109 --> 00:45:20,319 or they're frosted or they have patterns 1245 00:45:25,430 --> 00:45:23,119 inside them because inside the crystal 1246 00:45:27,990 --> 00:45:25,440 school i wanted to introduce the image 1247 00:45:31,510 --> 00:45:28,000 of a human skull so you have this idea 1248 00:45:33,190 --> 00:45:31,520 that the physical is encased within if 1249 00:45:36,150 --> 00:45:33,200 you like the spiritual you know you've 1250 00:45:38,230 --> 00:45:36,160 got this mystical outer skull encasing 1251 00:45:39,670 --> 00:45:38,240 the physical and the inner skull and i 1252 00:45:40,950 --> 00:45:39,680 thought that really sort of captured the 1253 00:45:43,430 --> 00:45:40,960 content of 1254 00:45:45,270 --> 00:45:43,440 what i was aiming for uh in inside the 1255 00:45:46,470 --> 00:45:45,280 book but now the publishers just went ah 1256 00:45:48,150 --> 00:45:46,480 now we're quite happy with this this 1257 00:45:50,710 --> 00:45:48,160 image will do bang there it goes on the 1258 00:45:52,230 --> 00:45:50,720 front cover i'm like you know 1259 00:45:55,030 --> 00:45:52,240 wasn't really quite what i had in mind 1260 00:45:57,109 --> 00:45:55,040 but it seems to have done the trick 1261 00:45:58,710 --> 00:45:57,119 well you mentioned yeah they were right 1262 00:46:00,630 --> 00:45:58,720 because it is a stunner and it 1263 00:46:03,430 --> 00:46:00,640 definitely expresses those things that 1264 00:46:05,510 --> 00:46:03,440 you were uh mentioning you know versus 1265 00:46:06,309 --> 00:46:05,520 that like smokey quartz but 1266 00:46:08,710 --> 00:46:06,319 um 1267 00:46:10,630 --> 00:46:08,720 or the milky way just just uh just to 1268 00:46:13,510 --> 00:46:10,640 answer your question the actual my own 1269 00:46:15,109 --> 00:46:13,520 school is inside the book if you have a 1270 00:46:17,910 --> 00:46:15,119 look inside the book there's actually a 1271 00:46:19,670 --> 00:46:17,920 full page photo of an aztec skull and 1272 00:46:21,990 --> 00:46:19,680 you'll see that it's quite frosted it's 1273 00:46:23,270 --> 00:46:22,000 quite milky that's mine mine's on the 1274 00:46:25,990 --> 00:46:23,280 inside 1275 00:46:29,349 --> 00:46:26,000 that's fascinating now 1276 00:46:30,710 --> 00:46:29,359 in through your research um 1277 00:46:33,190 --> 00:46:30,720 a question that 1278 00:46:36,069 --> 00:46:33,200 abounds in my mind 1279 00:46:38,630 --> 00:46:36,079 is are these crystal skulls still being 1280 00:46:40,550 --> 00:46:38,640 found have they all been found and how 1281 00:46:42,309 --> 00:46:40,560 many crystal skulls if so have been 1282 00:46:43,990 --> 00:46:42,319 found 1283 00:46:45,750 --> 00:46:44,000 right that's a really important question 1284 00:46:47,589 --> 00:46:45,760 actually um 1285 00:46:49,829 --> 00:46:47,599 the answer is i 1286 00:46:51,910 --> 00:46:49,839 think that there are plenty more out 1287 00:46:54,309 --> 00:46:51,920 there to be found 1288 00:46:57,510 --> 00:46:54,319 by that i mean the genuine ones the 1289 00:47:00,470 --> 00:46:57,520 problem we've got now is there are tens 1290 00:47:03,030 --> 00:47:00,480 of thousands of modern 1291 00:47:04,470 --> 00:47:03,040 machine-made man-made schools just 1292 00:47:06,790 --> 00:47:04,480 coming out every year they're just the 1293 00:47:09,190 --> 00:47:06,800 market's completely flooded by them um 1294 00:47:11,270 --> 00:47:09,200 everything in size from tiny little you 1295 00:47:12,390 --> 00:47:11,280 know sort of key ring size ones right 1296 00:47:15,910 --> 00:47:12,400 the way up to 1297 00:47:19,910 --> 00:47:17,750 all of them are machine made all of them 1298 00:47:21,109 --> 00:47:19,920 are modern you can easily identify them 1299 00:47:22,470 --> 00:47:21,119 by just looking at them under a 1300 00:47:25,109 --> 00:47:22,480 magnifying glass because you'll see the 1301 00:47:27,109 --> 00:47:25,119 machine marks on the tool marks etc none 1302 00:47:28,790 --> 00:47:27,119 of them are particularly old so what you 1303 00:47:30,230 --> 00:47:28,800 have to do is you have to sort of turn 1304 00:47:32,230 --> 00:47:30,240 the clock back if you like to try and 1305 00:47:34,150 --> 00:47:32,240 see where the real ones are 1306 00:47:36,069 --> 00:47:34,160 i would say a real one uh there's 1307 00:47:38,470 --> 00:47:36,079 criteria in the book for a real one it 1308 00:47:40,710 --> 00:47:38,480 needs to be life size preferably not 1309 00:47:43,190 --> 00:47:40,720 newborn you know bigger than newborn but 1310 00:47:45,990 --> 00:47:43,200 it needs to be life-sized it needs to be 1311 00:47:49,510 --> 00:47:46,000 hand-made so it's obviously got to be 1312 00:47:51,750 --> 00:47:49,520 you know shaped fashioned and polished 1313 00:47:53,349 --> 00:47:51,760 and you can tell that it's handmade 1314 00:47:55,430 --> 00:47:53,359 artistically it'd be nice to have some 1315 00:47:58,230 --> 00:47:55,440 kind of a you know an echo of a time 1316 00:48:00,630 --> 00:47:58,240 period about it the way mine's shaped it 1317 00:48:02,390 --> 00:48:00,640 just looks exactly like the aztec 1318 00:48:03,670 --> 00:48:02,400 carvings there's no doubt 1319 00:48:05,349 --> 00:48:03,680 about that 1320 00:48:07,109 --> 00:48:05,359 there's a new dating method coming in 1321 00:48:09,510 --> 00:48:07,119 now where they look at the water content 1322 00:48:11,990 --> 00:48:09,520 within stone because the exposed 1323 00:48:14,549 --> 00:48:12,000 surfaces dry out so if you know what the 1324 00:48:16,790 --> 00:48:14,559 basic water content of the stone is you 1325 00:48:19,589 --> 00:48:16,800 can almost get a sense of how old it is 1326 00:48:21,270 --> 00:48:19,599 by how dry the outer surface is so you 1327 00:48:23,190 --> 00:48:21,280 would expect if any of these schools 1328 00:48:26,710 --> 00:48:23,200 were analyzed that they would come back 1329 00:48:28,230 --> 00:48:26,720 as at least a few hundred years or older 1330 00:48:29,750 --> 00:48:28,240 in terms of them drying out but that's 1331 00:48:31,750 --> 00:48:29,760 the only scientific method that's the 1332 00:48:33,750 --> 00:48:31,760 only scientific way of actually 1333 00:48:35,190 --> 00:48:33,760 examining them from an archaeologist's 1334 00:48:36,390 --> 00:48:35,200 point of view how many real ones are 1335 00:48:38,790 --> 00:48:36,400 there in the world i'm going to shock 1336 00:48:41,030 --> 00:48:38,800 everybody now by saying two 1337 00:48:43,589 --> 00:48:41,040 there are only two 1338 00:48:47,270 --> 00:48:43,599 one of them appears in the book 1339 00:48:49,270 --> 00:48:47,280 there's um a jungle city called cobra 1340 00:48:51,430 --> 00:48:49,280 and i visited it when i was in in the 1341 00:48:53,829 --> 00:48:51,440 yucatan i went down there took a photo 1342 00:48:56,309 --> 00:48:53,839 of a school that is bang in the middle 1343 00:48:59,349 --> 00:48:56,319 of the ballpark at cobra one of their 1344 00:49:01,109 --> 00:48:59,359 ball arenas has this milky white school 1345 00:49:02,950 --> 00:49:01,119 set in the floor right in the middle of 1346 00:49:05,030 --> 00:49:02,960 it and it's always been there it's there 1347 00:49:07,430 --> 00:49:05,040 on the archaeological reports it's never 1348 00:49:10,470 --> 00:49:07,440 been moved it's not a fake and it's 1349 00:49:11,910 --> 00:49:10,480 white quartz so that one's real and then 1350 00:49:14,950 --> 00:49:11,920 there's an archaeological report that 1351 00:49:17,510 --> 00:49:14,960 came out quite a few years ago now um 1352 00:49:19,510 --> 00:49:17,520 from uh mexico city 1353 00:49:22,470 --> 00:49:19,520 where a school that was slightly bigger 1354 00:49:24,549 --> 00:49:22,480 than ham size so it still qualifies had 1355 00:49:27,270 --> 00:49:24,559 been found buried in a ceremonial 1356 00:49:29,270 --> 00:49:27,280 context inside i believe it came from 1357 00:49:30,950 --> 00:49:29,280 inside one of the pyramids but what's 1358 00:49:32,790 --> 00:49:30,960 happening now in south america is that 1359 00:49:35,109 --> 00:49:32,800 the guys out there the archaeologists 1360 00:49:37,510 --> 00:49:35,119 are not telling people when these things 1361 00:49:39,589 --> 00:49:37,520 are turning up because uh obviously if 1362 00:49:41,430 --> 00:49:39,599 they the site gets out or information 1363 00:49:42,630 --> 00:49:41,440 about the fine gets out then the sites 1364 00:49:44,790 --> 00:49:42,640 get raided 1365 00:49:46,790 --> 00:49:44,800 and the damage to the sites is quite 1366 00:49:49,109 --> 00:49:46,800 extensive and also the schools 1367 00:49:50,630 --> 00:49:49,119 themselves are national treasures you 1368 00:49:51,670 --> 00:49:50,640 know as far as south america is 1369 00:49:53,270 --> 00:49:51,680 concerned 1370 00:49:55,270 --> 00:49:53,280 really they should all go back there 1371 00:49:57,030 --> 00:49:55,280 because that's where they belong 1372 00:49:59,030 --> 00:49:57,040 and after hundreds of years of these 1373 00:50:00,390 --> 00:49:59,040 things being picked up and taken away i 1374 00:50:01,829 --> 00:50:00,400 think they've finally drawn the line 1375 00:50:03,349 --> 00:50:01,839 under it and said no you know we're not 1376 00:50:05,030 --> 00:50:03,359 without if we find any more we just you 1377 00:50:06,870 --> 00:50:05,040 know we're not going to tell you unless 1378 00:50:08,710 --> 00:50:06,880 you want to you know that's the end of 1379 00:50:10,470 --> 00:50:08,720 it we're fed up with having these things 1380 00:50:13,190 --> 00:50:10,480 nicked all the time so you know we're 1381 00:50:14,549 --> 00:50:13,200 hanging on to them so i know of two i 1382 00:50:17,030 --> 00:50:14,559 just know of two that have 1383 00:50:20,069 --> 00:50:17,040 archaeological secure 1384 00:50:21,829 --> 00:50:20,079 documented locations um i'm inclined to 1385 00:50:24,790 --> 00:50:21,839 think that the mitchell hedges school is 1386 00:50:26,630 --> 00:50:24,800 real uh because uh mitchell hedges was 1387 00:50:28,470 --> 00:50:26,640 an archaeologist and that's what he was 1388 00:50:30,549 --> 00:50:28,480 and he was quite good at what he did so 1389 00:50:32,790 --> 00:50:30,559 i'd like to think that that one is also 1390 00:50:34,470 --> 00:50:32,800 real so that would take that total to 1391 00:50:38,230 --> 00:50:34,480 three 1392 00:50:40,950 --> 00:50:38,240 not many i'm afraid that's neat well 1393 00:50:42,309 --> 00:50:40,960 it i still find it fascinating because 1394 00:50:44,630 --> 00:50:42,319 humans 1395 00:50:47,349 --> 00:50:44,640 as you know are very 1396 00:50:50,069 --> 00:50:47,359 well we're good at if there is something 1397 00:50:52,309 --> 00:50:50,079 that we uh find 1398 00:50:55,190 --> 00:50:52,319 powerful or 1399 00:50:56,630 --> 00:50:55,200 performing esoteric rights it is uh 1400 00:51:01,109 --> 00:50:56,640 deemed 1401 00:51:03,030 --> 00:51:01,119 magnificent we will reproduce it and yes 1402 00:51:05,910 --> 00:51:03,040 you know aztec spiritual beliefs and 1403 00:51:07,750 --> 00:51:05,920 ceremonies placed major significance on 1404 00:51:09,109 --> 00:51:07,760 the human skull 1405 00:51:12,069 --> 00:51:09,119 yeah 1406 00:51:15,190 --> 00:51:12,079 and another question that is 1407 00:51:17,670 --> 00:51:15,200 fascinating to me as i as i scratch the 1408 00:51:20,309 --> 00:51:17,680 surface compared to your research is the 1409 00:51:22,150 --> 00:51:20,319 weight of some of these skulls they are 1410 00:51:25,270 --> 00:51:22,160 quite heavy 1411 00:51:26,630 --> 00:51:25,280 yes yes they are there's there's um 1412 00:51:28,870 --> 00:51:26,640 people don't think of crystals as 1413 00:51:31,430 --> 00:51:28,880 containing any form of metal 1414 00:51:33,910 --> 00:51:31,440 but there's quite um you have this thing 1415 00:51:36,630 --> 00:51:33,920 called lead crystal which is glass 1416 00:51:40,630 --> 00:51:36,640 that's been infused with uh lead to 1417 00:51:42,230 --> 00:51:40,640 produce a much brighter clearer crisper 1418 00:51:42,950 --> 00:51:42,240 type of glass 1419 00:51:44,470 --> 00:51:42,960 so 1420 00:51:46,950 --> 00:51:44,480 silica itself 1421 00:51:48,710 --> 00:51:46,960 simple silicon i think silicon dioxide i 1422 00:51:51,829 --> 00:51:48,720 think is the one that they fuse with 1423 00:51:55,349 --> 00:51:51,839 most things it that will mix with a lot 1424 00:51:57,270 --> 00:51:55,359 of other different kinds of metals and 1425 00:51:59,750 --> 00:51:57,280 elements and substances to produce 1426 00:52:02,069 --> 00:51:59,760 different things different properties so 1427 00:52:04,790 --> 00:52:02,079 that will increase the weight of the 1428 00:52:06,630 --> 00:52:04,800 object that you're picking up 1429 00:52:09,109 --> 00:52:06,640 i mean the one that springs to mind most 1430 00:52:11,109 --> 00:52:09,119 actually is um you can pick up skulls 1431 00:52:12,230 --> 00:52:11,119 made of all kinds of different forms of 1432 00:52:14,150 --> 00:52:12,240 silica 1433 00:52:15,430 --> 00:52:14,160 and some of them are just as heavy as 1434 00:52:17,109 --> 00:52:15,440 they look 1435 00:52:20,069 --> 00:52:17,119 some of them are not some of them are 1436 00:52:21,990 --> 00:52:20,079 considerably heavier than they look 1437 00:52:23,589 --> 00:52:22,000 um so perhaps you know if somebody 1438 00:52:25,829 --> 00:52:23,599 wanted to experiment with that go and 1439 00:52:27,589 --> 00:52:25,839 find a you know a new age crystal fair 1440 00:52:29,190 --> 00:52:27,599 somewhere and there'll be a stall there 1441 00:52:31,589 --> 00:52:29,200 that will be selling these schools and 1442 00:52:33,190 --> 00:52:31,599 they usually have a row of usually hand 1443 00:52:34,870 --> 00:52:33,200 sized ones that are all about the same 1444 00:52:36,870 --> 00:52:34,880 size it might be eight or ten schools in 1445 00:52:38,549 --> 00:52:36,880 a row and just very carefully with two 1446 00:52:39,990 --> 00:52:38,559 fingers just go along and pick them up 1447 00:52:41,670 --> 00:52:40,000 one after another 1448 00:52:42,950 --> 00:52:41,680 and i think people would be surprised by 1449 00:52:44,069 --> 00:52:42,960 the difference 1450 00:52:45,910 --> 00:52:44,079 you know if you pick one up that's 1451 00:52:48,390 --> 00:52:45,920 tiger's eye as compared to one that's 1452 00:52:50,230 --> 00:52:48,400 agate as compared to one that's quartz 1453 00:52:53,190 --> 00:52:50,240 as a you know compared to one that's 1454 00:52:54,870 --> 00:52:53,200 amethyst and so on um you'd be surprised 1455 00:52:56,390 --> 00:52:54,880 by just how different 1456 00:52:57,750 --> 00:52:56,400 the weights are even though they're all 1457 00:53:00,069 --> 00:52:57,760 the same size 1458 00:53:02,390 --> 00:53:00,079 so yeah the quartz ones the actual flare 1459 00:53:05,030 --> 00:53:02,400 quartz ones they do they are shockingly 1460 00:53:08,230 --> 00:53:05,040 heavy compared to the size you know the 1461 00:53:10,150 --> 00:53:08,240 weight to size ratio is is quite amazing 1462 00:53:12,390 --> 00:53:10,160 like i say the one i've got 1463 00:53:14,230 --> 00:53:12,400 obviously it's really solid and it does 1464 00:53:16,470 --> 00:53:14,240 pack a punch when you pick it up it's a 1465 00:53:19,349 --> 00:53:16,480 lot heavier than it looks 1466 00:53:20,470 --> 00:53:19,359 yeah uh some 1467 00:53:23,430 --> 00:53:20,480 i mean 1468 00:53:25,030 --> 00:53:23,440 i guess 30 to 78 pounds is not uncommon 1469 00:53:27,510 --> 00:53:25,040 and this is just mind-blowing to me 1470 00:53:30,549 --> 00:53:27,520 because this is not something 1471 00:53:33,990 --> 00:53:30,559 that would be easy to carry around so it 1472 00:53:36,630 --> 00:53:34,000 would be a really big deal especially in 1473 00:53:39,270 --> 00:53:36,640 in rituals and esoteric rights 1474 00:53:41,270 --> 00:53:39,280 and i i'm also fascinated mark that the 1475 00:53:43,430 --> 00:53:41,280 only way science seems to 1476 00:53:44,870 --> 00:53:43,440 estimate at least currently 1477 00:53:47,030 --> 00:53:44,880 is um 1478 00:53:48,630 --> 00:53:47,040 these crystal carvings is by examining 1479 00:53:51,270 --> 00:53:48,640 the surface to see if there's any 1480 00:53:52,549 --> 00:53:51,280 evidence of how it was carved and the 1481 00:53:54,390 --> 00:53:52,559 origin 1482 00:53:57,270 --> 00:53:54,400 seems to be mysterious because part of 1483 00:53:59,270 --> 00:53:57,280 the issue is quartz crystal is a natural 1484 00:54:02,069 --> 00:53:59,280 stone that comes from the earth 1485 00:54:04,950 --> 00:54:02,079 therefore we can't really carbonate it 1486 00:54:06,630 --> 00:54:04,960 that's quite a quandary no 1487 00:54:08,870 --> 00:54:06,640 yeah i'll run across this very recently 1488 00:54:10,390 --> 00:54:08,880 actually it's interesting because some 1489 00:54:13,510 --> 00:54:10,400 friends of mine who are doing this 1490 00:54:16,470 --> 00:54:13,520 exhibition in the summer have a very 1491 00:54:19,270 --> 00:54:16,480 large what appears to me to be 1492 00:54:20,630 --> 00:54:19,280 volcanic obsidian 1493 00:54:24,150 --> 00:54:20,640 crystal skull 1494 00:54:26,710 --> 00:54:24,160 which looks like it's been um it's very 1495 00:54:28,630 --> 00:54:26,720 primitive kind of green bottle glass if 1496 00:54:30,790 --> 00:54:28,640 you like and it looks like it's been 1497 00:54:33,270 --> 00:54:30,800 re-melted or reformed and produced for 1498 00:54:36,069 --> 00:54:33,280 school and then hand carved afterwards 1499 00:54:38,710 --> 00:54:36,079 so the school itself is 1500 00:54:40,710 --> 00:54:38,720 cast in some way and then afterwards 1501 00:54:43,670 --> 00:54:40,720 they've sort of pecked a lot of detail 1502 00:54:45,910 --> 00:54:43,680 into it stylistically again potentially 1503 00:54:47,510 --> 00:54:45,920 round about the spanish conquistador 1504 00:54:50,230 --> 00:54:47,520 period so you're looking at somewhere in 1505 00:54:52,309 --> 00:54:50,240 the 1500s possibly based on style but 1506 00:54:54,150 --> 00:54:52,319 they had the same idea you did they they 1507 00:54:55,670 --> 00:54:54,160 actually managed to get some material 1508 00:54:58,150 --> 00:54:55,680 off this school 1509 00:55:02,470 --> 00:54:58,160 and sent it away for carbon dating and 1510 00:55:04,630 --> 00:55:02,480 it came back to something like 13 000 bc 1511 00:55:06,230 --> 00:55:04,640 but as soon as i read the report since i 1512 00:55:08,789 --> 00:55:06,240 looked at what they'd actually done i 1513 00:55:11,750 --> 00:55:08,799 said well that's not the skull that's 1514 00:55:13,990 --> 00:55:11,760 the soil it was buried in 1515 00:55:16,470 --> 00:55:14,000 so you can date where it came from you 1516 00:55:19,430 --> 00:55:16,480 know it was sat somewhere on a shelf or 1517 00:55:22,950 --> 00:55:19,440 in a cave or a tomb or whatever 1518 00:55:24,710 --> 00:55:22,960 the tomb or the site had dirt in it 1519 00:55:27,430 --> 00:55:24,720 that was that age 1520 00:55:29,030 --> 00:55:27,440 but that's not the age of the glass you 1521 00:55:31,270 --> 00:55:29,040 see what i'm getting at here the two or 1522 00:55:32,950 --> 00:55:31,280 two separate things it never crossed the 1523 00:55:35,430 --> 00:55:32,960 mind to think that the glass might be 1524 00:55:36,630 --> 00:55:35,440 completely different and this one's 1525 00:55:39,030 --> 00:55:36,640 going to be a real headache in the 1526 00:55:41,349 --> 00:55:39,040 future because it's not like natural 1527 00:55:43,030 --> 00:55:41,359 stone the one i've got somebody started 1528 00:55:45,109 --> 00:55:43,040 with a sucking great big crystal and 1529 00:55:46,710 --> 00:55:45,119 they've kind of eaten the way into it 1530 00:55:48,630 --> 00:55:46,720 until eventually they've ended up with 1531 00:55:49,910 --> 00:55:48,640 the right size and shape of skull it's 1532 00:55:51,670 --> 00:55:49,920 quite nice actually it's clear at the 1533 00:55:52,870 --> 00:55:51,680 back smoky in the middle and frosted at 1534 00:55:54,950 --> 00:55:52,880 the front so they've done it in a 1535 00:55:56,549 --> 00:55:54,960 certain way to to create the skull the 1536 00:55:58,950 --> 00:55:56,559 way they wanted it but they've actually 1537 00:56:00,870 --> 00:55:58,960 done that from natural crystal which you 1538 00:56:02,710 --> 00:56:00,880 know might be dateable it's got the 1539 00:56:04,950 --> 00:56:02,720 potential to be dateable but if this 1540 00:56:06,470 --> 00:56:04,960 thing's made from you know volcanic 1541 00:56:08,549 --> 00:56:06,480 glass that's come out of a volcano 1542 00:56:10,150 --> 00:56:08,559 that's been melted and then put back 1543 00:56:13,190 --> 00:56:10,160 together again to create this kind of 1544 00:56:14,710 --> 00:56:13,200 bluey green obsidian thing that's just 1545 00:56:17,030 --> 00:56:14,720 impossible 1546 00:56:18,870 --> 00:56:17,040 you'll never get a proper date off that 1547 00:56:19,589 --> 00:56:18,880 you know it's it's a real conundrum that 1548 00:56:22,390 --> 00:56:19,599 one 1549 00:56:24,870 --> 00:56:22,400 they are incredibly hard to date which i 1550 00:56:26,390 --> 00:56:24,880 think again is why they've tightened up 1551 00:56:28,390 --> 00:56:26,400 the way they're looking at these 1552 00:56:31,349 --> 00:56:28,400 carvings in south america because the 1553 00:56:33,349 --> 00:56:31,359 fine site and where they're coming from 1554 00:56:37,829 --> 00:56:33,359 and the paperwork and the information 1555 00:56:39,670 --> 00:56:37,839 behind them is now more important almost 1556 00:56:41,109 --> 00:56:39,680 than the fact that it's a crystal school 1557 00:56:43,349 --> 00:56:41,119 you know you've got to have that 1558 00:56:46,230 --> 00:56:43,359 provenance that background to it 1559 00:56:48,150 --> 00:56:46,240 otherwise it's just another you know one 1560 00:56:49,750 --> 00:56:48,160 of tens of thousands of schools that 1561 00:56:51,670 --> 00:56:49,760 turn up all the time 1562 00:56:53,109 --> 00:56:51,680 which is disappointed if it gets to that 1563 00:56:55,510 --> 00:56:53,119 that position 1564 00:56:57,670 --> 00:56:55,520 um you know but they're just really hard 1565 00:56:59,510 --> 00:56:57,680 to age the possibility of them like you 1566 00:57:01,190 --> 00:56:59,520 say making these things in the past you 1567 00:57:03,750 --> 00:57:01,200 can imagine like the priests holding one 1568 00:57:05,990 --> 00:57:03,760 of these up and the sun coming in and 1569 00:57:07,750 --> 00:57:06,000 you know catching this and the light 1570 00:57:09,910 --> 00:57:07,760 beams going out from them they must have 1571 00:57:11,910 --> 00:57:09,920 looked absolutely spectacular there's no 1572 00:57:13,829 --> 00:57:11,920 reason why they wouldn't make them 1573 00:57:15,670 --> 00:57:13,839 absolutely no reason at all because they 1574 00:57:17,750 --> 00:57:15,680 made everything else you know and 1575 00:57:19,910 --> 00:57:17,760 schools appear on everything else 1576 00:57:21,510 --> 00:57:19,920 so you know why would you not you know 1577 00:57:22,950 --> 00:57:21,520 of course you'd have a go 1578 00:57:24,230 --> 00:57:22,960 but i don't think we've found them all i 1579 00:57:25,510 --> 00:57:24,240 don't think i don't think they've all 1580 00:57:26,870 --> 00:57:25,520 come to the light yet i think there's 1581 00:57:28,309 --> 00:57:26,880 there's plenty more out there to be 1582 00:57:30,230 --> 00:57:28,319 discovered yet 1583 00:57:31,589 --> 00:57:30,240 that's great news that adds to the 1584 00:57:33,109 --> 00:57:31,599 mystery 1585 00:57:34,549 --> 00:57:33,119 yeah well it does i mean 1586 00:57:36,150 --> 00:57:34,559 i was gonna say take the city of coba 1587 00:57:38,870 --> 00:57:36,160 when i was there you know there's this 1588 00:57:40,390 --> 00:57:38,880 vast city in the jungle and i said to 1589 00:57:41,510 --> 00:57:40,400 the archaeologist chapter who was there 1590 00:57:43,750 --> 00:57:41,520 i said well how are you going on you 1591 00:57:45,109 --> 00:57:43,760 know if you dug most of it up they just 1592 00:57:47,510 --> 00:57:45,119 shook his anywhere there's less than ten 1593 00:57:50,230 --> 00:57:47,520 percent of it excavated 1594 00:57:52,630 --> 00:57:50,240 so nine ninety percent of the city of 1595 00:57:53,510 --> 00:57:52,640 coba that's just one city ninety percent 1596 00:57:55,430 --> 00:57:53,520 of it 1597 00:57:57,270 --> 00:57:55,440 is still nothing but jungle it's just 1598 00:57:59,670 --> 00:57:57,280 piles of rocks in the jungle 1599 00:58:01,990 --> 00:57:59,680 you know that city alone would take many 1600 00:58:03,990 --> 00:58:02,000 many lifetimes to to pull that back out 1601 00:58:06,630 --> 00:58:04,000 of the jungle again there's so much 1602 00:58:07,990 --> 00:58:06,640 still to be found 1603 00:58:10,950 --> 00:58:08,000 fascinating 1604 00:58:13,910 --> 00:58:10,960 potentially i mean this could this is 1605 00:58:17,109 --> 00:58:13,920 this is just amazing the potential of 1606 00:58:18,950 --> 00:58:17,119 finding so many more and 1607 00:58:20,789 --> 00:58:18,960 i i think it's uh 1608 00:58:23,510 --> 00:58:20,799 also fascinating i wish we could go into 1609 00:58:26,069 --> 00:58:23,520 it now but you are an author of other 1610 00:58:28,470 --> 00:58:26,079 works that absolutely fascinate me uh 1611 00:58:29,430 --> 00:58:28,480 such as revealing the green man 1612 00:58:30,309 --> 00:58:29,440 and 1613 00:58:33,670 --> 00:58:30,319 um 1614 00:58:35,430 --> 00:58:33,680 right up my alley and and uh the 1615 00:58:37,510 --> 00:58:35,440 and other books the life and times of 1616 00:58:40,630 --> 00:58:37,520 the real robin hood 1617 00:58:42,549 --> 00:58:40,640 celtic warrington and other
