--> 00:06:06,400 author on a book that came out last year 162 00:06:13,110 --> 00:06:09,600 called geomancy earth grids ley lines 163 00:06:15,670 --> 00:06:13,120 feng shui divination dowsing and dragons 164 00:06:17,990 --> 00:06:15,680 very provocative but talk to us a bit 165 00:06:20,230 --> 00:06:18,000 more about your overall interests in 166 00:06:21,270 --> 00:06:20,240 strange stuff and where giants fit into 167 00:06:23,830 --> 00:06:21,280 it all 168 00:06:26,070 --> 00:06:23,840 well yeah fundamentally i'm fascinated 169 00:06:28,469 --> 00:06:26,080 by the megalithic sights that's my kind 170 00:06:30,230 --> 00:06:28,479 of real kind of intense passion trying 171 00:06:31,189 --> 00:06:30,240 to understand what the ancients were up 172 00:06:33,110 --> 00:06:31,199 to 173 00:06:36,230 --> 00:06:33,120 myself and john martin and gareth mills 174 00:06:38,070 --> 00:06:36,240 founded megalithomania back in 2005 did 175 00:06:40,469 --> 00:06:38,080 our first conference the following year 176 00:06:43,110 --> 00:06:40,479 and one of our big inspirations is the 177 00:06:44,870 --> 00:06:43,120 author and scholar john michelle 178 00:06:46,110 --> 00:06:44,880 who wrote the classic book the view over 179 00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:46,120 atlantis he wrote the book called 180 00:06:51,909 --> 00:06:49,440 megalithomania as well back in the 1980s 181 00:06:53,670 --> 00:06:51,919 and he was a big influence and he's 182 00:06:55,990 --> 00:06:53,680 really into the earth mysteries and 183 00:06:58,309 --> 00:06:56,000 trying to understand like the invisible 184 00:07:00,390 --> 00:06:58,319 aspects of these ancient sites so 185 00:07:02,550 --> 00:07:00,400 looking at the archaeoastronomy 186 00:07:03,990 --> 00:07:02,560 the earth energies the ley lines that 187 00:07:06,390 --> 00:07:04,000 connect them all up 188 00:07:08,390 --> 00:07:06,400 the archaeoacoustics and things like 189 00:07:10,629 --> 00:07:08,400 this and so these kind of themes really 190 00:07:13,110 --> 00:07:10,639 get me and also obviously the geomancy 191 00:07:16,150 --> 00:07:13,120 trying to understand how the ancients 192 00:07:18,550 --> 00:07:16,160 were able to manipulate these energies 193 00:07:21,990 --> 00:07:18,560 for higher states of consciousness but 194 00:07:24,150 --> 00:07:22,000 also for fertility enhancing farming and 195 00:07:25,749 --> 00:07:24,160 agriculture and things like this 196 00:07:27,589 --> 00:07:25,759 and it's what john michelle called the 197 00:07:30,230 --> 00:07:27,599 enchantment of the landscape and so this 198 00:07:31,830 --> 00:07:30,240 is kind of what's always fascinated me 199 00:07:33,430 --> 00:07:31,840 and it surprised me that getting into 200 00:07:34,950 --> 00:07:33,440 the giant stories when i started 201 00:07:37,110 --> 00:07:34,960 researching that with jim a few years 202 00:07:38,390 --> 00:07:37,120 ago like well probably 10 years ago now 203 00:07:39,990 --> 00:07:38,400 that 204 00:07:41,029 --> 00:07:40,000 more and more we looked into especially 205 00:07:43,510 --> 00:07:41,039 in britain 206 00:07:45,990 --> 00:07:43,520 this geomantic aspect these ley lines 207 00:07:48,390 --> 00:07:46,000 these kind of divination and all these 208 00:07:50,150 --> 00:07:48,400 elements are all part of the giants 209 00:07:52,469 --> 00:07:50,160 they're part of the giant mythos that 210 00:07:53,189 --> 00:07:52,479 kind of blankets the whole country here 211 00:07:55,029 --> 00:07:53,199 so 212 00:07:57,350 --> 00:07:55,039 it's kind of like coming full circle for 213 00:07:59,430 --> 00:07:57,360 me from my research years ago i was 214 00:08:01,029 --> 00:07:59,440 studying earth energies and crop circles 215 00:08:02,869 --> 00:08:01,039 and things like this going to the 216 00:08:05,029 --> 00:08:02,879 megaliths did that for years and it's 217 00:08:07,510 --> 00:08:05,039 come back to all these more esoteric 218 00:08:09,990 --> 00:08:07,520 subjects with these giants so it all 219 00:08:13,110 --> 00:08:10,000 fits together somehow 220 00:08:16,070 --> 00:08:13,120 i love it and jim you're a stonemason 221 00:08:18,230 --> 00:08:16,080 and writer who has compiled so many news 222 00:08:20,230 --> 00:08:18,240 articles and academic reports on giants 223 00:08:22,950 --> 00:08:20,240 you had a blog called the daily giant 224 00:08:24,790 --> 00:08:22,960 and would post about one every day very 225 00:08:26,390 --> 00:08:24,800 impressive clearly no shortage of 226 00:08:28,790 --> 00:08:26,400 information to present 227 00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:28,800 but i also understand you're very 228 00:08:33,350 --> 00:08:30,720 interested in the metaphysical and 229 00:08:35,190 --> 00:08:33,360 you've had maybe hundreds of ayahuasca 230 00:08:37,110 --> 00:08:35,200 ceremonies in the amazon i heard you say 231 00:08:39,029 --> 00:08:37,120 that i'm not sure how 232 00:08:41,750 --> 00:08:39,039 serious you were being but i am curious 233 00:08:44,230 --> 00:08:41,760 how this metaphysical and spiritual 234 00:08:46,630 --> 00:08:44,240 interest overlaps with the very real 235 00:08:49,190 --> 00:08:46,640 reality of giants in the ancient past 236 00:08:51,829 --> 00:08:49,200 how strong is that overlap might some of 237 00:08:53,509 --> 00:08:51,839 them have had a metaphysical origin to 238 00:08:55,990 --> 00:08:53,519 begin with 239 00:08:58,790 --> 00:08:56,000 i'll say that i started an early age in 240 00:09:01,430 --> 00:08:58,800 my teenage years reading all the 241 00:09:04,310 --> 00:09:01,440 non-dualistic teachers like lao tzu the 242 00:09:06,070 --> 00:09:04,320 upanishads the inviter vendanta and i 243 00:09:08,470 --> 00:09:06,080 didn't even really know i i was doing it 244 00:09:10,790 --> 00:09:08,480 i was just compelled to do it i was 245 00:09:12,630 --> 00:09:10,800 drawn to the material and i started 246 00:09:14,870 --> 00:09:12,640 getting to the work of edgar casey the 247 00:09:16,630 --> 00:09:14,880 christian mystic who would go into like 248 00:09:18,310 --> 00:09:16,640 a trance-like state 249 00:09:20,550 --> 00:09:18,320 and talk about 250 00:09:23,670 --> 00:09:20,560 mostly health-related matters but he 251 00:09:25,750 --> 00:09:23,680 also got into ideas of atlantis and 252 00:09:27,829 --> 00:09:25,760 giants and little people 253 00:09:29,110 --> 00:09:27,839 and metaphysical underpinnings of 254 00:09:31,590 --> 00:09:29,120 reality 255 00:09:33,990 --> 00:09:31,600 so i've come from that 256 00:09:35,269 --> 00:09:34,000 level of awareness or research for a 257 00:09:36,470 --> 00:09:35,279 long time 258 00:09:38,710 --> 00:09:36,480 and 259 00:09:40,150 --> 00:09:38,720 for me it was always the indigenous 260 00:09:43,509 --> 00:09:40,160 traditions 261 00:09:45,670 --> 00:09:43,519 around the world and religious documents 262 00:09:47,750 --> 00:09:45,680 that caught my attention how can all 263 00:09:50,150 --> 00:09:47,760 these sources be talking about such a 264 00:09:51,990 --> 00:09:50,160 different history a lost world if you 265 00:09:54,790 --> 00:09:52,000 will and they're all 266 00:09:56,790 --> 00:09:54,800 remarkably similar in the ideas of 267 00:09:57,910 --> 00:09:56,800 ubiquitous and that's what's drawn my 268 00:09:59,269 --> 00:09:57,920 attention 269 00:10:01,670 --> 00:09:59,279 i don't know if i've done hundreds of 270 00:10:04,310 --> 00:10:01,680 ayahuasca ceremonies i'd say dozens i 271 00:10:06,069 --> 00:10:04,320 might misspoke but i spent lots of time 272 00:10:07,990 --> 00:10:06,079 with wisdom keepers 273 00:10:10,150 --> 00:10:08,000 and lots of time 274 00:10:12,550 --> 00:10:10,160 exploring the nature of reality with 275 00:10:14,630 --> 00:10:12,560 spiritual teachers and masters as well 276 00:10:15,750 --> 00:10:14,640 around the world so that's always 277 00:10:17,590 --> 00:10:15,760 you know 278 00:10:19,030 --> 00:10:17,600 drawn me in and as he was saying it's 279 00:10:21,350 --> 00:10:19,040 like 280 00:10:23,990 --> 00:10:21,360 the giant story is one of 281 00:10:26,069 --> 00:10:24,000 wisdom keepers and masters not just the 282 00:10:28,470 --> 00:10:26,079 malevolent stories you hear in the bible 283 00:10:31,110 --> 00:10:28,480 there's kind of two stories like one of 284 00:10:33,110 --> 00:10:31,120 these great civilizers who help humanity 285 00:10:35,350 --> 00:10:33,120 and another side of the story is kind of 286 00:10:37,509 --> 00:10:35,360 the dark and malevolent side of 287 00:10:39,670 --> 00:10:37,519 cannibalistic giants that you hear from 288 00:10:40,389 --> 00:10:39,680 the bible and native american legends 289 00:10:42,230 --> 00:10:40,399 and 290 00:10:44,310 --> 00:10:42,240 you know a tip of the hat to greg little 291 00:10:46,389 --> 00:10:44,320 as well who studies a lot of the casey 292 00:10:47,350 --> 00:10:46,399 material he got me interested with his 293 00:10:49,350 --> 00:10:47,360 books 294 00:10:51,190 --> 00:10:49,360 and you know it's all coalesced for me 295 00:10:53,670 --> 00:10:51,200 and i've learned a lot throughout the 296 00:10:56,230 --> 00:10:53,680 years of dealing with academics and 297 00:10:57,990 --> 00:10:56,240 skeptics dealing with alternative people 298 00:11:00,949 --> 00:10:58,000 and trying to be objective about 299 00:11:02,949 --> 00:11:00,959 controversial subjects um 300 00:11:05,110 --> 00:11:02,959 well cheers to that it seems like the 301 00:11:07,829 --> 00:11:05,120 three of us have a lot of overlapping 302 00:11:10,710 --> 00:11:07,839 interests and hey dozens of amazonian 303 00:11:13,030 --> 00:11:10,720 ayahuasca sessions is impressive enough 304 00:11:15,350 --> 00:11:13,040 but so you have this previous book about 305 00:11:17,430 --> 00:11:15,360 giants in north america and that's 306 00:11:19,110 --> 00:11:17,440 certainly where we hear about them most 307 00:11:22,710 --> 00:11:19,120 often at least that's where i hear about 308 00:11:25,110 --> 00:11:22,720 them most often of course we also hear 309 00:11:27,590 --> 00:11:25,120 plenty about megalithic sites and stone 310 00:11:30,310 --> 00:11:27,600 circles in the british isles but talk to 311 00:11:32,389 --> 00:11:30,320 us about why this book is so unique what 312 00:11:34,710 --> 00:11:32,399 have you guys brought out that hasn't 313 00:11:36,870 --> 00:11:34,720 really been explored previously in the 314 00:11:38,790 --> 00:11:36,880 uh alternative realm 315 00:11:41,829 --> 00:11:38,800 i mean if you're talking about the new 316 00:11:44,069 --> 00:11:41,839 book giant stonehenge nation britain 317 00:11:45,750 --> 00:11:44,079 that really was you know actually in our 318 00:11:47,990 --> 00:11:45,760 first book giants on record we did 319 00:11:49,829 --> 00:11:48,000 actually look a little bit at britain 320 00:11:51,750 --> 00:11:49,839 and we published a couple of accounts in 321 00:11:53,590 --> 00:11:51,760 there and we were going to do you know 322 00:11:56,069 --> 00:11:53,600 after we done our book on america you 323 00:11:57,829 --> 00:11:56,079 know there's so many accounts i mean jim 324 00:12:00,230 --> 00:11:57,839 collected a majority of the employees we 325 00:12:02,949 --> 00:12:00,240 had ross hamilton we have mikey ewers 326 00:12:04,710 --> 00:12:02,959 collecting them i found a few as well 327 00:12:06,230 --> 00:12:04,720 and we ended up having you know over a 328 00:12:09,670 --> 00:12:06,240 thousand i think there's something like 329 00:12:11,590 --> 00:12:09,680 1500 have now been discovered so far 330 00:12:13,910 --> 00:12:11,600 since you know the last couple of years 331 00:12:15,030 --> 00:12:13,920 last count but in britain that we didn't 332 00:12:16,790 --> 00:12:15,040 really think there'd be that many 333 00:12:18,949 --> 00:12:16,800 accounts but we started looking we were 334 00:12:21,030 --> 00:12:18,959 going to do a book on the worldwide 335 00:12:22,870 --> 00:12:21,040 culture of giants go look at each 336 00:12:25,430 --> 00:12:22,880 country or each you know part of the 337 00:12:27,269 --> 00:12:25,440 world individually we started on britain 338 00:12:29,190 --> 00:12:27,279 as the first chapter 339 00:12:31,509 --> 00:12:29,200 and it just grew and grew and we kept 340 00:12:33,350 --> 00:12:31,519 finding all these old documents there's 341 00:12:36,230 --> 00:12:33,360 this brilliant book called the giants of 342 00:12:38,710 --> 00:12:36,240 wales by chris grooms we found this book 343 00:12:39,990 --> 00:12:38,720 from the 1500s we checked all these old 344 00:12:42,870 --> 00:12:40,000 documents 345 00:12:43,990 --> 00:12:42,880 some translated welsh texts and things 346 00:12:45,910 --> 00:12:44,000 like this 347 00:12:47,829 --> 00:12:45,920 and the archives of ireland and we were 348 00:12:50,150 --> 00:12:47,839 just like stunned because not only have 349 00:12:51,910 --> 00:12:50,160 you got the accounts of the skeletons 350 00:12:53,990 --> 00:12:51,920 and the bones and things that were 351 00:12:57,509 --> 00:12:54,000 recorded as being on display you've also 352 00:12:59,030 --> 00:12:57,519 got this remarkable lost mythos that 353 00:13:01,269 --> 00:12:59,040 covered the whole 354 00:13:02,150 --> 00:13:01,279 all four countries of the british isles 355 00:13:03,910 --> 00:13:02,160 and 356 00:13:04,949 --> 00:13:03,920 not many people actually know about many 357 00:13:07,670 --> 00:13:04,959 of these 358 00:13:09,750 --> 00:13:07,680 creation stories these foundation myths 359 00:13:12,550 --> 00:13:09,760 of britain all of them are related to 360 00:13:14,870 --> 00:13:12,560 giants this is what's so odd and this is 361 00:13:17,110 --> 00:13:14,880 almost known as the land of the giants 362 00:13:19,030 --> 00:13:17,120 you know in prehistoric times and it was 363 00:13:21,110 --> 00:13:19,040 just part of the culture as part of the 364 00:13:23,269 --> 00:13:21,120 kind of way of thinking back then 365 00:13:25,829 --> 00:13:23,279 clearly you know one of the things 366 00:13:27,910 --> 00:13:25,839 that makes this unique as you asked is 367 00:13:29,590 --> 00:13:27,920 the fact that not only we found loads of 368 00:13:32,949 --> 00:13:29,600 accounts that no one's ever documented 369 00:13:35,430 --> 00:13:32,959 before but we found stories associated 370 00:13:37,750 --> 00:13:35,440 with the giants you know linked at the 371 00:13:39,110 --> 00:13:37,760 same places where the skeletons are 372 00:13:40,629 --> 00:13:39,120 being found you know this is what's 373 00:13:42,949 --> 00:13:40,639 really odd you get these really strong 374 00:13:45,509 --> 00:13:42,959 stories have been remembered passed down 375 00:13:47,430 --> 00:13:45,519 from generation to generation they all 376 00:13:48,710 --> 00:13:47,440 appear to be actually where skeletons 377 00:13:51,110 --> 00:13:48,720 have been found we've got multiple 378 00:13:52,870 --> 00:13:51,120 examples like michael's mail 379 00:13:54,710 --> 00:13:52,880 we've found skeletons in their stone 380 00:13:57,110 --> 00:13:54,720 hands reports of them 381 00:13:59,750 --> 00:13:57,120 there's you know the story of the giant 382 00:14:02,150 --> 00:13:59,760 idris on caddy idris in wales and at the 383 00:14:04,629 --> 00:14:02,160 base of there they found two over seven 384 00:14:06,949 --> 00:14:04,639 foot skeletons with these hazel dowsing 385 00:14:09,750 --> 00:14:06,959 rods in the burial which is again 386 00:14:11,269 --> 00:14:09,760 linking to this geomantic aspect so 387 00:14:12,629 --> 00:14:11,279 yeah i mean we've documented and 388 00:14:14,710 --> 00:14:12,639 published stuff that's never been put 389 00:14:17,189 --> 00:14:14,720 out there before in a popular kind of 390 00:14:19,189 --> 00:14:17,199 format of a book and so yeah so there's 391 00:14:20,550 --> 00:14:19,199 a lot of information i think people kind 392 00:14:21,350 --> 00:14:20,560 of look at the cover they think it's 393 00:14:23,269 --> 00:14:21,360 like 394 00:14:25,829 --> 00:14:23,279 they're not sure what to expect and i 395 00:14:27,670 --> 00:14:25,839 think it's quite surprising how deep 396 00:14:29,829 --> 00:14:27,680 we've gone into the research for this 397 00:14:31,030 --> 00:14:29,839 one 398 00:14:33,590 --> 00:14:31,040 nice 399 00:14:36,710 --> 00:14:33,600 and jim let me ask you this so are there 400 00:14:39,670 --> 00:14:36,720 qualities or common details that vary 401 00:14:41,750 --> 00:14:39,680 between north american stories and those 402 00:14:44,069 --> 00:14:41,760 of the british isles how would you 403 00:14:46,870 --> 00:14:44,079 compare and contrast them are they 404 00:14:48,710 --> 00:14:46,880 different in any significant ways 405 00:14:49,750 --> 00:14:48,720 yeah one thing that caught my attention 406 00:14:52,710 --> 00:14:49,760 is 407 00:14:55,670 --> 00:14:52,720 you find similar anatomic anomalies 408 00:14:57,829 --> 00:14:55,680 there are so many accounts of jaw bones 409 00:15:00,230 --> 00:14:57,839 fitting over the face of the finder 410 00:15:01,590 --> 00:15:00,240 which indicates a massive skeleton 411 00:15:03,189 --> 00:15:01,600 there were so many of those in the in 412 00:15:04,710 --> 00:15:03,199 the united states 413 00:15:05,829 --> 00:15:04,720 from coast to coast it was really 414 00:15:06,790 --> 00:15:05,839 compelling 415 00:15:08,790 --> 00:15:06,800 and 416 00:15:11,590 --> 00:15:08,800 what we found out was there was a series 417 00:15:13,269 --> 00:15:11,600 of anthropologists in the 1940s and 50s 418 00:15:14,790 --> 00:15:13,279 in the united states 419 00:15:17,590 --> 00:15:14,800 webb and snow from the university of 420 00:15:20,790 --> 00:15:17,600 kentucky dr don dragoo from the carnegie 421 00:15:23,030 --> 00:15:20,800 section of man head of anthropology that 422 00:15:25,430 --> 00:15:23,040 found over seven foot skeletons with 423 00:15:26,550 --> 00:15:25,440 this massive and robust 424 00:15:27,590 --> 00:15:26,560 physical 425 00:15:29,430 --> 00:15:27,600 makeup 426 00:15:31,829 --> 00:15:29,440 and the jaw bones were so thick and 427 00:15:33,509 --> 00:15:31,839 large they called it the adena jar and 428 00:15:35,030 --> 00:15:33,519 the adena was one of the first mound 429 00:15:37,509 --> 00:15:35,040 building cultures in the united states 430 00:15:39,110 --> 00:15:37,519 about 1008 bc 431 00:15:41,990 --> 00:15:39,120 that built a lot of the mounds you see 432 00:15:44,470 --> 00:15:42,000 in the ohio river valley and their royal 433 00:15:46,470 --> 00:15:44,480 class was extremely large well over 434 00:15:48,069 --> 00:15:46,480 seven foot tall for the males well over 435 00:15:51,189 --> 00:15:48,079 six foot tall for the females and they 436 00:15:53,749 --> 00:15:51,199 had massive jaw bones that were verified 437 00:15:55,350 --> 00:15:53,759 by you know modern-day anthropologists 438 00:15:57,350 --> 00:15:55,360 so you find the same story in the 439 00:15:58,790 --> 00:15:57,360 british isles you find jaw bones over 440 00:16:02,150 --> 00:15:58,800 the faces 441 00:16:04,069 --> 00:16:02,160 well-proportioned massive bone structure 442 00:16:06,069 --> 00:16:04,079 you also find 443 00:16:07,590 --> 00:16:06,079 well i'll say to contrast in the united 444 00:16:10,150 --> 00:16:07,600 states you know because a lot of people 445 00:16:13,150 --> 00:16:10,160 say dismiss these stories as 446 00:16:15,829 --> 00:16:13,160 sensationalist hoaxes or headlines or 447 00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:15,839 misidentified mastodon remains 448 00:16:20,389 --> 00:16:17,920 but that just really isn't true if you 449 00:16:23,430 --> 00:16:20,399 look at the evidence what you find is 450 00:16:25,030 --> 00:16:23,440 a lot of the descriptions are say in the 451 00:16:26,629 --> 00:16:25,040 united states 452 00:16:34,629 --> 00:16:26,639 native american 453 00:16:36,790 --> 00:16:34,639 so these aren't mastodon bones these are 454 00:16:39,509 --> 00:16:36,800 human burials in the british isles you 455 00:16:41,990 --> 00:16:39,519 have neolithic burials you have stone 456 00:16:44,629 --> 00:16:42,000 tombs but you also have a lot of the 457 00:16:46,710 --> 00:16:44,639 same kind of accounts where railroad 458 00:16:48,629 --> 00:16:46,720 workers are unearthing an ancient burial 459 00:16:50,870 --> 00:16:48,639 ground or they're digging a well and 460 00:16:53,350 --> 00:16:50,880 they encounter this or they dig into a 461 00:16:54,470 --> 00:16:53,360 burial mound and they find absolutely 462 00:16:57,110 --> 00:16:54,480 massive 463 00:16:59,670 --> 00:16:57,120 skeletons just like in the united states 464 00:17:01,110 --> 00:16:59,680 and the mythology amongst the native 465 00:17:03,189 --> 00:17:01,120 americans 466 00:17:04,549 --> 00:17:03,199 is similar to the mythology that you 467 00:17:06,789 --> 00:17:04,559 find in the british isles of the 468 00:17:08,710 --> 00:17:06,799 indigenous people and what i found 469 00:17:10,150 --> 00:17:08,720 fascinating you know for you and i this 470 00:17:11,909 --> 00:17:10,160 wasn't just like 471 00:17:13,829 --> 00:17:11,919 not that we were going in blind but it 472 00:17:15,669 --> 00:17:13,839 was a revelation in itself all the 473 00:17:17,510 --> 00:17:15,679 things we've uncovered and one of the 474 00:17:18,789 --> 00:17:17,520 big things is is that all the biblical 475 00:17:21,350 --> 00:17:18,799 connections 476 00:17:23,189 --> 00:17:21,360 the incubi and the watchers and the 477 00:17:25,350 --> 00:17:23,199 shining ones and all these mysterious 478 00:17:27,590 --> 00:17:25,360 beings that you find in the bible lands 479 00:17:30,230 --> 00:17:27,600 show up in the british isles as well and 480 00:17:34,310 --> 00:17:30,240 there's connections with the early 481 00:17:35,909 --> 00:17:34,320 waves of migration noah's son and albina 482 00:17:37,990 --> 00:17:35,919 and albion and 483 00:17:39,909 --> 00:17:38,000 connections to the holy lands in greece 484 00:17:40,950 --> 00:17:39,919 it's a really fascinating migratory 485 00:17:43,830 --> 00:17:40,960 story 486 00:17:47,430 --> 00:17:43,840 and you know at the end of the day 487 00:17:49,350 --> 00:17:47,440 just a kind of a mundane approach 488 00:17:50,950 --> 00:17:49,360 doesn't do the story justice there's 489 00:17:53,430 --> 00:17:50,960 clearly another 490 00:17:54,710 --> 00:17:53,440 supernatural aspect to it as well and 491 00:17:56,630 --> 00:17:54,720 that's why i think 492 00:17:58,230 --> 00:17:56,640 people find this material interesting 493 00:18:00,390 --> 00:17:58,240 because they intuitively know there's a 494 00:18:03,029 --> 00:18:00,400 broader story of our past 495 00:18:05,990 --> 00:18:03,039 one that's rooted in mythology in lost 496 00:18:06,870 --> 00:18:06,000 worlds and high metaphysical teachings 497 00:18:09,029 --> 00:18:06,880 so 498 00:18:10,950 --> 00:18:09,039 i am not anti-science by any means i 499 00:18:13,430 --> 00:18:10,960 just feel like science operates like an 500 00:18:16,390 --> 00:18:13,440 atheistic cult where it doesn't give 501 00:18:18,310 --> 00:18:16,400 enough weight to the metaphysical realms 502 00:18:20,710 --> 00:18:18,320 and the mythological stories and 503 00:18:23,430 --> 00:18:20,720 indigenous oral traditions you and i 504 00:18:25,190 --> 00:18:23,440 approach our research like academics 505 00:18:26,789 --> 00:18:25,200 but i think the difference is we're open 506 00:18:28,630 --> 00:18:26,799 to those ideas 507 00:18:30,549 --> 00:18:28,640 oral traditions carry weight for us 508 00:18:32,549 --> 00:18:30,559 religious documents carry weight 509 00:18:34,630 --> 00:18:32,559 especially oral traditions because 510 00:18:37,029 --> 00:18:34,640 there's a limited amount of information 511 00:18:38,870 --> 00:18:37,039 you can transmit orally so it won't be 512 00:18:40,070 --> 00:18:38,880 erroneous it has to be very important to 513 00:18:42,470 --> 00:18:40,080 the people 514 00:18:45,110 --> 00:18:42,480 and what are they transmitting ideas of 515 00:18:47,350 --> 00:18:45,120 lost lands and giants and metaphysical 516 00:18:50,789 --> 00:18:47,360 teachings so that to me 517 00:18:56,150 --> 00:18:53,110 well said wow so many 518 00:18:58,710 --> 00:18:56,160 directions to go but yeah science 519 00:19:01,110 --> 00:18:58,720 operating as an atheistic cult seems to 520 00:19:03,510 --> 00:19:01,120 be a thread i can't get away from no 521 00:19:05,590 --> 00:19:03,520 matter how off the radar the subject i 522 00:19:07,510 --> 00:19:05,600 think is going to be it just keeps 523 00:19:09,750 --> 00:19:07,520 coming up especially over the last 524 00:19:12,310 --> 00:19:09,760 couple of years but i wanted to ask more 525 00:19:14,230 --> 00:19:12,320 about the physical characteristics 526 00:19:17,990 --> 00:19:14,240 because this was something that really 527 00:19:19,909 --> 00:19:18,000 stuck out to me and for anyone who 528 00:19:21,350 --> 00:19:19,919 isn't sure how much stock to put into 529 00:19:22,390 --> 00:19:21,360 the giant thing 530 00:19:23,990 --> 00:19:22,400 there are 531 00:19:25,909 --> 00:19:24,000 physical characteristics that make some 532 00:19:28,630 --> 00:19:25,919 of these giants different not only 533 00:19:31,990 --> 00:19:28,640 bigger but two or even three rows of 534 00:19:33,990 --> 00:19:32,000 teeth six fingers and toes and some of 535 00:19:35,510 --> 00:19:34,000 these characteristics 536 00:19:38,630 --> 00:19:35,520 what makes them really interesting is 537 00:19:40,870 --> 00:19:38,640 that there are places where we find some 538 00:19:43,190 --> 00:19:40,880 genetic lineage perhaps would be the 539 00:19:46,390 --> 00:19:43,200 term of places where some of these 540 00:19:47,510 --> 00:19:46,400 qualities still pop up talk to us about 541 00:19:48,310 --> 00:19:47,520 that 542 00:19:49,590 --> 00:19:48,320 yeah 543 00:19:51,750 --> 00:19:49,600 i'll say that 544 00:19:53,110 --> 00:19:51,760 one thing i've really dove into is the 545 00:19:56,470 --> 00:19:53,120 idea of 546 00:20:00,070 --> 00:19:56,480 polydactyly extra digits six digits on 547 00:20:02,789 --> 00:20:00,080 the fingers and six on the toes is found 548 00:20:04,870 --> 00:20:02,799 all throughout history the bible 549 00:20:07,830 --> 00:20:04,880 lists the giant of gaff 550 00:20:09,350 --> 00:20:07,840 as having six fingers and six toes 24 551 00:20:12,870 --> 00:20:09,360 digits in all 552 00:20:15,510 --> 00:20:12,880 in samaria the summa ibzu in 2800 bc is 553 00:20:18,230 --> 00:20:15,520 the first one to talk about this idea of 554 00:20:21,430 --> 00:20:18,240 extra digits and the fact that it is 555 00:20:24,070 --> 00:20:21,440 always associated with the divine or 556 00:20:25,990 --> 00:20:24,080 malevolent activity so it's considered a 557 00:20:27,990 --> 00:20:26,000 supernatural trait 558 00:20:29,110 --> 00:20:28,000 and i've searched the globe and have 559 00:20:31,110 --> 00:20:29,120 found 560 00:20:33,110 --> 00:20:31,120 giant hands and feet with six fingers 561 00:20:35,190 --> 00:20:33,120 and toes and rock art and petroglyphs 562 00:20:37,190 --> 00:20:35,200 around the world all around the united 563 00:20:39,430 --> 00:20:37,200 states in the four corners region 564 00:20:41,430 --> 00:20:39,440 isolated pacific islands 565 00:20:42,710 --> 00:20:41,440 australia holy land it's rather 566 00:20:43,909 --> 00:20:42,720 remarkable 567 00:20:45,350 --> 00:20:43,919 and 568 00:20:48,070 --> 00:20:45,360 you have 569 00:20:49,750 --> 00:20:48,080 places like the four corners region of 570 00:20:52,470 --> 00:20:49,760 the united states where the pueblo 571 00:20:54,870 --> 00:20:52,480 people have a higher incidence of this 572 00:20:57,270 --> 00:20:54,880 genetic condition called polydactyly 573 00:20:59,990 --> 00:20:57,280 than the rest of the population you have 574 00:21:02,549 --> 00:21:00,000 tribes in ecuador and villages in spain 575 00:21:05,350 --> 00:21:02,559 where people have this condition 576 00:21:06,789 --> 00:21:05,360 of extra digits so the question is it's 577 00:21:09,110 --> 00:21:06,799 associated with the giants it's 578 00:21:11,110 --> 00:21:09,120 associated with the supernatural was 579 00:21:13,510 --> 00:21:11,120 there ancient interbreeding 580 00:21:15,590 --> 00:21:13,520 and you bring up genetics 581 00:21:18,789 --> 00:21:15,600 the highest incidence of pituitary 582 00:21:21,350 --> 00:21:18,799 gigantism which is a rare condition when 583 00:21:23,669 --> 00:21:21,360 a tumor grows on the pituitary gland of 584 00:21:25,510 --> 00:21:23,679 an individual and they basically grow 585 00:21:27,750 --> 00:21:25,520 out of control like if you've seen 586 00:21:29,669 --> 00:21:27,760 robert waldo from illinois he was nine 587 00:21:30,870 --> 00:21:29,679 foot tall but he had this disease 588 00:21:33,669 --> 00:21:30,880 condition 589 00:21:36,470 --> 00:21:33,679 so the highest incidence of this occurs 590 00:21:39,190 --> 00:21:36,480 in the north in ulster county in ireland 591 00:21:41,350 --> 00:21:39,200 where the tuatha de janine landed 592 00:21:43,750 --> 00:21:41,360 they landed on iron mountain in this 593 00:21:46,470 --> 00:21:43,760 this supernatural mist and they were 594 00:21:48,870 --> 00:21:46,480 noted to be extremely tall they fought 595 00:21:50,630 --> 00:21:48,880 with the femorians like tolkien's 596 00:21:52,630 --> 00:21:50,640 mythological battles 597 00:21:54,710 --> 00:21:52,640 and you have this incidence this 598 00:21:57,190 --> 00:21:54,720 occurrence and you have these accounts 599 00:21:59,750 --> 00:21:57,200 of six fingers and toes as well in the 600 00:22:02,070 --> 00:21:59,760 british isles and like i said you have 601 00:22:04,390 --> 00:22:02,080 massive jaw bones and other things 602 00:22:05,669 --> 00:22:04,400 associated and that's what we look into 603 00:22:07,110 --> 00:22:05,679 like 604 00:22:09,110 --> 00:22:07,120 there's a genetic condition called 605 00:22:10,390 --> 00:22:09,120 beetle bar syndrome 606 00:22:13,430 --> 00:22:10,400 and you know basically in the same 607 00:22:15,510 --> 00:22:13,440 genetic zip code you have extra digits 608 00:22:16,549 --> 00:22:15,520 and pituitary gigantism 609 00:22:17,830 --> 00:22:16,559 so 610 00:22:19,029 --> 00:22:17,840 is this like 611 00:22:20,870 --> 00:22:19,039 some kind of 612 00:22:24,070 --> 00:22:20,880 genetic rejection 613 00:22:27,190 --> 00:22:24,080 by larger individuals and it is now a 614 00:22:29,270 --> 00:22:27,200 part of our genetic code but it presents 615 00:22:31,750 --> 00:22:29,280 as a disease condition so it's kind of a 616 00:22:33,750 --> 00:22:31,760 genetic interesting mystery that we 617 00:22:36,230 --> 00:22:33,760 follow in the book and to your broader 618 00:22:38,310 --> 00:22:36,240 question yes the giants had 619 00:22:40,310 --> 00:22:38,320 telepathic abilities they could control 620 00:22:42,310 --> 00:22:40,320 weather like many of the native american 621 00:22:44,549 --> 00:22:42,320 shamans in the united states they were 622 00:22:47,190 --> 00:22:44,559 called the tall ones these wisdom 623 00:22:49,669 --> 00:22:47,200 bringers who showed up after a flood and 624 00:22:52,149 --> 00:22:49,679 you have to wonder if 625 00:22:53,830 --> 00:22:52,159 there was higher cranial capacity 626 00:22:55,350 --> 00:22:53,840 there were metaphysical understandings 627 00:22:57,110 --> 00:22:55,360 that we really didn't understand 628 00:22:59,110 --> 00:22:57,120 ourselves that you know in our modern 629 00:23:02,789 --> 00:22:59,120 day society so there's all this kind of 630 00:23:04,149 --> 00:23:02,799 mystery surrounding the idea of giants 631 00:23:06,310 --> 00:23:04,159 you also have 632 00:23:07,590 --> 00:23:06,320 the double rows of teeth you mentioned 633 00:23:09,270 --> 00:23:07,600 as well i think that's something me and 634 00:23:10,870 --> 00:23:09,280 jim have kind of got obsessed by a 635 00:23:12,870 --> 00:23:10,880 couple of years a few years ago when we 636 00:23:14,149 --> 00:23:12,880 were working on our previous book in 637 00:23:17,750 --> 00:23:14,159 north america because we had something 638 00:23:20,630 --> 00:23:17,760 like what 30 maybe 40 accounts of extra 639 00:23:23,830 --> 00:23:20,640 rows of teeth even a third set of teeth 640 00:23:25,830 --> 00:23:23,840 from a seven foot skeleton in florida so 641 00:23:27,669 --> 00:23:25,840 that side of it really interests me we 642 00:23:30,710 --> 00:23:27,679 have the extra digits we have really 643 00:23:33,430 --> 00:23:30,720 thick skulls in some cases as jim said 644 00:23:34,870 --> 00:23:33,440 the adena jaw but we find this you know 645 00:23:37,909 --> 00:23:34,880 all these kind of traits in britain it's 646 00:23:39,990 --> 00:23:37,919 also the robust nature of the skeletons 647 00:23:42,230 --> 00:23:40,000 as well it's something you know that's 648 00:23:44,390 --> 00:23:42,240 been described over and over again in 649 00:23:46,070 --> 00:23:44,400 america and in britain so we're not 650 00:23:49,110 --> 00:23:46,080 talking about like basketball players 651 00:23:51,669 --> 00:23:49,120 who are sort of quite slim and very tall 652 00:23:55,510 --> 00:23:51,679 they're actually like robust well-formed 653 00:23:57,190 --> 00:23:55,520 really powerful kind of physiques and so 654 00:23:59,269 --> 00:23:57,200 that makes it a whole different thing 655 00:24:00,710 --> 00:23:59,279 that isn't pituitary gigantism for 656 00:24:02,870 --> 00:24:00,720 instance you don't get that kind of 657 00:24:05,430 --> 00:24:02,880 thing when you're talking about the 658 00:24:07,190 --> 00:24:05,440 types of accounts we're dealing with but 659 00:24:09,669 --> 00:24:07,200 the double rosa t thing we had a lot of 660 00:24:12,470 --> 00:24:09,679 debate about that with certain skeptics 661 00:24:15,029 --> 00:24:12,480 but we are pretty convinced that 662 00:24:17,830 --> 00:24:15,039 it's a genetic trait of giants you know 663 00:24:20,390 --> 00:24:17,840 when you go back in time far enough you 664 00:24:23,510 --> 00:24:20,400 find these accounts over and over again 665 00:24:25,669 --> 00:24:23,520 of extra teeth extra rows of teeth 666 00:24:27,350 --> 00:24:25,679 we've even got a few horn skulls just to 667 00:24:28,549 --> 00:24:27,360 make it all go a bit crazy in north 668 00:24:30,310 --> 00:24:28,559 america but 669 00:24:32,149 --> 00:24:30,320 and that's a known thing that happens as 670 00:24:34,149 --> 00:24:32,159 well even i think moses was supposed to 671 00:24:35,830 --> 00:24:34,159 have had horns in some accounts as well 672 00:24:38,310 --> 00:24:35,840 and so you know also like the double 673 00:24:40,310 --> 00:24:38,320 rows of teeth it's also linked i 674 00:24:41,990 --> 00:24:40,320 remember robert temple as a well-known 675 00:24:44,310 --> 00:24:42,000 author he wrote about them and he 676 00:24:46,710 --> 00:24:44,320 suggested that they had really connected 677 00:24:49,909 --> 00:24:46,720 with what he described as supernatural 678 00:24:50,710 --> 00:24:49,919 heroes and so this actually is the kind 679 00:24:52,870 --> 00:24:50,720 of 680 00:24:54,470 --> 00:24:52,880 the stories you get in britain and 681 00:24:57,350 --> 00:24:54,480 ireland are 682 00:24:58,950 --> 00:24:57,360 of supernatural heroes and so i find 683 00:25:01,029 --> 00:24:58,960 that particularly interesting because we 684 00:25:03,430 --> 00:25:01,039 found several accounts like cranbourne 685 00:25:05,669 --> 00:25:03,440 chase and dorset also i think on the 686 00:25:07,669 --> 00:25:05,679 isle of lewis or near there we're 687 00:25:09,669 --> 00:25:07,679 finding some accounts some giant 688 00:25:11,669 --> 00:25:09,679 skeletons and normal sized skeletons 689 00:25:13,269 --> 00:25:11,679 that have these extra rows of teeth so 690 00:25:16,149 --> 00:25:13,279 it's like a genetic throwback you know 691 00:25:19,350 --> 00:25:16,159 the last kind of people who kind of had 692 00:25:21,669 --> 00:25:19,360 this and we even spoke i think to shara 693 00:25:24,070 --> 00:25:21,679 bailey who was a dental anthropologist 694 00:25:25,909 --> 00:25:24,080 from new york university when we were 695 00:25:28,230 --> 00:25:25,919 doing the show a few years ago and she 696 00:25:30,470 --> 00:25:28,240 was blown away by all the accounts when 697 00:25:31,669 --> 00:25:30,480 we showed them terms she suggested 698 00:25:33,510 --> 00:25:31,679 perhaps 699 00:25:35,830 --> 00:25:33,520 this is something that triggers you know 700 00:25:38,390 --> 00:25:35,840 as you grow so large you get into like 701 00:25:40,310 --> 00:25:38,400 eight feet tall and so on and so forth 702 00:25:41,830 --> 00:25:40,320 and you're doing that naturally which is 703 00:25:44,070 --> 00:25:41,840 what we believe these giants it was a 704 00:25:44,950 --> 00:25:44,080 natural process of getting to this size 705 00:25:47,990 --> 00:25:44,960 through 706 00:25:50,230 --> 00:25:48,000 interbreeding with specific kind of 707 00:25:52,230 --> 00:25:50,240 other royal class or priestly elites and 708 00:25:54,149 --> 00:25:52,240 things like this that the teeth would 709 00:25:55,830 --> 00:25:54,159 actually grow into the space in the 710 00:25:57,830 --> 00:25:55,840 mouth and so you would have these extra 711 00:26:00,549 --> 00:25:57,840 rows of teeth and it would become like 712 00:26:04,549 --> 00:26:00,559 this genetic marker but also be a 713 00:26:06,310 --> 00:26:04,559 sign of being of elite status and so all 714 00:26:07,830 --> 00:26:06,320 these different things extra rows of 715 00:26:10,230 --> 00:26:07,840 teeth 716 00:26:12,230 --> 00:26:10,240 powerful physiques large jaws are all 717 00:26:15,510 --> 00:26:12,240 connected with these giants but also the 718 00:26:17,909 --> 00:26:15,520 supernatural kind of heroes and warriors 719 00:26:20,549 --> 00:26:17,919 of these ancient stories so it all kind 720 00:26:22,230 --> 00:26:20,559 of comes together it's very odd 721 00:26:23,750 --> 00:26:22,240 mm-hmm 722 00:26:26,470 --> 00:26:23,760 yes and 723 00:26:29,830 --> 00:26:26,480 jim you had mentioned deliberate and 724 00:26:32,070 --> 00:26:29,840 elaborate burial sites and then one that 725 00:26:35,830 --> 00:26:32,080 i had notes on from the book was 726 00:26:37,990 --> 00:26:35,840 actually where he lives in glastonbury i 727 00:26:41,269 --> 00:26:38,000 guess it's the giant of glastonbury 728 00:26:44,390 --> 00:26:41,279 abbey buried between two big obelisks 729 00:26:46,710 --> 00:26:44,400 with strange inscriptions there's like a 730 00:26:48,950 --> 00:26:46,720 lead cross buried in the middle and on 731 00:26:49,990 --> 00:26:48,960 one side a nine foot skeleton and an oak 732 00:26:52,310 --> 00:26:50,000 coffin 733 00:26:54,630 --> 00:26:52,320 and three skeletons buried on the right 734 00:26:57,669 --> 00:26:54,640 side you have a great diagram of it in 735 00:27:00,149 --> 00:26:57,679 the book of how this was all positioned 736 00:27:01,350 --> 00:27:00,159 and it's quite odd and just breezing 737 00:27:05,029 --> 00:27:01,360 through some of my notes so i can't 738 00:27:08,310 --> 00:27:05,039 believe how fast this is going um 739 00:27:11,269 --> 00:27:08,320 also all four countries of the british 740 00:27:13,590 --> 00:27:11,279 isles have origin stories that are 741 00:27:16,230 --> 00:27:13,600 intimately connected to 742 00:27:19,190 --> 00:27:16,240 ruling giants so this is no small thing 743 00:27:21,590 --> 00:27:19,200 even if it's just like mythology or lore 744 00:27:23,909 --> 00:27:21,600 it's it's there in all four countries of 745 00:27:25,750 --> 00:27:23,919 the british isles so i mean that's a 746 00:27:28,230 --> 00:27:25,760 pretty big hit but 747 00:27:31,029 --> 00:27:28,240 it seems that quite often these giants 748 00:27:33,830 --> 00:27:31,039 were associated with being kings or 749 00:27:35,990 --> 00:27:33,840 rulers what are your thoughts on there 750 00:27:37,590 --> 00:27:36,000 being a sort of lineage that still 751 00:27:39,590 --> 00:27:37,600 exists in the 752 00:27:42,310 --> 00:27:39,600 what seems to be a tight-knit ruling 753 00:27:44,710 --> 00:27:42,320 class today where many world leaders are 754 00:27:47,430 --> 00:27:44,720 still interrelated to each other or 755 00:27:49,990 --> 00:27:47,440 other famous figures in history 756 00:27:52,070 --> 00:27:50,000 are they descendants of these giants and 757 00:27:54,630 --> 00:27:52,080 do you think that behind closed doors 758 00:27:56,710 --> 00:27:54,640 they know about some of this stuff 759 00:27:59,269 --> 00:27:56,720 well we won't talk about prince andrew 760 00:28:05,110 --> 00:28:03,029 a little hot to talk about him 761 00:28:07,909 --> 00:28:05,120 i hear what you're saying the idea of 762 00:28:10,149 --> 00:28:07,919 royal bloodlines is something that 763 00:28:12,310 --> 00:28:10,159 you find in ancient times you find 764 00:28:14,070 --> 00:28:12,320 interbreeding brother and 765 00:28:16,870 --> 00:28:14,080 sister husband and wife 766 00:28:19,510 --> 00:28:16,880 associated with the gods in egypt and 767 00:28:21,510 --> 00:28:19,520 peru and other places 768 00:28:22,710 --> 00:28:21,520 and in fact they found ancient 769 00:28:25,269 --> 00:28:22,720 interpreting 770 00:28:26,470 --> 00:28:25,279 associated with a burial at newgrange 771 00:28:28,470 --> 00:28:26,480 recently 772 00:28:30,950 --> 00:28:28,480 you could probably google it brother and 773 00:28:31,830 --> 00:28:30,960 sister ancestral relationship you know 774 00:28:33,909 --> 00:28:31,840 uh 775 00:28:35,990 --> 00:28:33,919 at newgrange or something like that and 776 00:28:38,310 --> 00:28:36,000 you wonder why we view it as like a 777 00:28:39,669 --> 00:28:38,320 repugnant behavior but the ancient 778 00:28:41,669 --> 00:28:39,679 peoples 779 00:28:42,870 --> 00:28:41,679 seem to keep this interbreeding intact 780 00:28:50,070 --> 00:28:42,880 to 781 00:28:52,230 --> 00:28:50,080 british isles all have giants involved 782 00:28:55,510 --> 00:28:52,240 and it's true it's rather remarkable 783 00:28:57,269 --> 00:28:55,520 albion and albina and england this idea 784 00:28:59,669 --> 00:28:57,279 that 785 00:29:02,789 --> 00:28:59,679 giants are interwoven in not only the 786 00:29:05,350 --> 00:29:02,799 mythology but in the priestly elite 787 00:29:07,510 --> 00:29:05,360 the idea of kingship 788 00:29:09,269 --> 00:29:07,520 the landscape itself 789 00:29:11,669 --> 00:29:09,279 virtually every stone circle and 790 00:29:14,389 --> 00:29:11,679 standing stone has some it's the fairy 791 00:29:16,710 --> 00:29:14,399 stone or the giant stone 792 00:29:19,430 --> 00:29:16,720 there's definitely echoes of ancient 793 00:29:20,950 --> 00:29:19,440 migrations of supernatural beings and 794 00:29:23,029 --> 00:29:20,960 giant people 795 00:29:24,549 --> 00:29:23,039 and i can't get around that i just if 796 00:29:26,389 --> 00:29:24,559 you were to be dropped off on earth 797 00:29:29,430 --> 00:29:26,399 today and looked around at the 798 00:29:31,909 --> 00:29:29,440 megalithic sites the strange 799 00:29:34,710 --> 00:29:31,919 gods that are set in iconography and 800 00:29:37,110 --> 00:29:34,720 statues around the world the mythologies 801 00:29:38,310 --> 00:29:37,120 you just would not be able to make sense 802 00:29:40,990 --> 00:29:38,320 of it through 803 00:29:42,870 --> 00:29:41,000 the idea of gradualism and 804 00:29:44,549 --> 00:29:42,880 uniformitarianism and the way science 805 00:29:47,350 --> 00:29:44,559 portrays the past 806 00:29:50,070 --> 00:29:47,360 they seem completely in opposition 807 00:29:52,630 --> 00:29:50,080 so we go towards mythology to help fill 808 00:29:54,870 --> 00:29:52,640 in the gaps and what it tells us is that 809 00:29:57,350 --> 00:29:54,880 there were giant beings who showed up 810 00:29:59,750 --> 00:29:57,360 and they taught a geomantic science 811 00:30:02,149 --> 00:29:59,760 and they built all these structures 812 00:30:03,430 --> 00:30:02,159 stonehenge and glastonbury tour like you 813 00:30:05,350 --> 00:30:03,440 talked about 814 00:30:07,669 --> 00:30:05,360 as an ancient way to enchant the 815 00:30:09,750 --> 00:30:07,679 landscape and edgar casey even talked 816 00:30:11,750 --> 00:30:09,760 about that it's basically these temple 817 00:30:13,510 --> 00:30:11,760 sites are tools of enlightenment when 818 00:30:16,470 --> 00:30:13,520 you go to stonehenge or the king's 819 00:30:18,230 --> 00:30:16,480 chamber at egypt or machu picchu 820 00:30:20,630 --> 00:30:18,240 they really have this effect on the 821 00:30:22,470 --> 00:30:20,640 consciousness on human consciousness the 822 00:30:24,230 --> 00:30:22,480 elevation of 823 00:30:26,230 --> 00:30:24,240 the spirit if you will 824 00:30:27,590 --> 00:30:26,240 that's why it's to me it's not just 825 00:30:29,190 --> 00:30:27,600 another story because it's an 826 00:30:31,510 --> 00:30:29,200 interesting story 827 00:30:33,110 --> 00:30:31,520 but then you move on in most of these 828 00:30:34,070 --> 00:30:33,120 ancient mysteries but i feel there's a 829 00:30:35,990 --> 00:30:34,080 real 830 00:30:39,510 --> 00:30:36,000 compelling nature to it that has to do 831 00:30:40,870 --> 00:30:39,520 with an ancient system that supported 832 00:30:43,110 --> 00:30:40,880 health and prosperity throughout the 833 00:30:45,510 --> 00:30:43,120 land but i'll throw it over to hugh 834 00:30:47,909 --> 00:30:45,520 about the glastonbury giant because he's 835 00:30:50,950 --> 00:30:47,919 the one who really lived in glastonbury 836 00:30:52,710 --> 00:30:50,960 and knows that story inside and out 837 00:30:54,549 --> 00:30:52,720 yeah the glastonbury giant that's one of 838 00:30:55,990 --> 00:30:54,559 the kind of classic ones it's one of the 839 00:30:59,830 --> 00:30:56,000 oldest ones as well because they were 840 00:31:02,470 --> 00:30:59,840 talking about the late 1100s so the 12th 841 00:31:05,590 --> 00:31:02,480 century that this was said to have been 842 00:31:08,389 --> 00:31:05,600 found now at the time it was called some 843 00:31:10,549 --> 00:31:08,399 dunstance this was one of the earliest 844 00:31:11,509 --> 00:31:10,559 christian monasteries or abby's in the 845 00:31:14,710 --> 00:31:11,519 country 846 00:31:16,070 --> 00:31:14,720 the whole area was sacred long before 847 00:31:18,389 --> 00:31:16,080 the christians moved in there's a 848 00:31:20,870 --> 00:31:18,399 well-known area you know in tradition 849 00:31:23,750 --> 00:31:20,880 it's avalon part of the arthurian mythos 850 00:31:26,549 --> 00:31:23,760 and so forth in the late 1100s there was 851 00:31:29,430 --> 00:31:26,559 a whole process of discovery and 852 00:31:32,310 --> 00:31:29,440 revelation with these monks linked also 853 00:31:34,710 --> 00:31:32,320 with i think king henry seventh or sixth 854 00:31:36,950 --> 00:31:34,720 at the time and there was apparently 855 00:31:39,110 --> 00:31:36,960 this story that was being kept by the 856 00:31:42,789 --> 00:31:39,120 royal family about 857 00:31:45,190 --> 00:31:42,799 king arthur being buried in glastonbury 858 00:31:47,269 --> 00:31:45,200 beneath these two pyramids or next to in 859 00:31:48,149 --> 00:31:47,279 between these two pyramids 860 00:31:51,909 --> 00:31:48,159 and 861 00:31:53,990 --> 00:31:51,919 revelation they found this what they 862 00:31:56,310 --> 00:31:54,000 believed was a spot they dug into it 863 00:31:58,070 --> 00:31:56,320 they found these kind of pillars which 864 00:32:00,710 --> 00:31:58,080 are like pyramids with all these strange 865 00:32:02,310 --> 00:32:00,720 engravings on and like he said halfway 866 00:32:04,870 --> 00:32:02,320 down about seven or eight feet down they 867 00:32:07,190 --> 00:32:04,880 found his lead cross which in latin red 868 00:32:09,750 --> 00:32:07,200 here lies in turd the burial of king 869 00:32:11,909 --> 00:32:09,760 arthur and so on and so forth which they 870 00:32:13,350 --> 00:32:11,919 believed that might have actually been a 871 00:32:15,269 --> 00:32:13,360 some people suggest that might have been 872 00:32:17,909 --> 00:32:15,279 a hoax placed there by the monks to 873 00:32:20,230 --> 00:32:17,919 attract pilgrims i.e tourists who would 874 00:32:22,230 --> 00:32:20,240 you know donate to the cause but as they 875 00:32:25,190 --> 00:32:22,240 dug further down they found this about 876 00:32:28,389 --> 00:32:25,200 16 feet down they found this huge 877 00:32:31,430 --> 00:32:28,399 oak coffin made out of a solid trunk of 878 00:32:33,990 --> 00:32:31,440 oak with two burials in it a male and 879 00:32:36,789 --> 00:32:34,000 possibly a female but the male was said 880 00:32:39,269 --> 00:32:36,799 to be over nine feet tall and something 881 00:32:41,269 --> 00:32:39,279 like the eye socket was so big you could 882 00:32:42,789 --> 00:32:41,279 pass your fist through it all that and 883 00:32:44,710 --> 00:32:42,799 all these descriptions and all these 884 00:32:47,430 --> 00:32:44,720 well-known scholars 885 00:32:49,190 --> 00:32:47,440 writers at the time even 886 00:32:51,430 --> 00:32:49,200 members of parliament and other such 887 00:32:52,789 --> 00:32:51,440 things all witnessed this and there was 888 00:32:55,110 --> 00:32:52,799 even a time 889 00:32:56,950 --> 00:32:55,120 a couple of decades later where this big 890 00:32:59,110 --> 00:32:56,960 ceremony took place and the royal family 891 00:33:01,750 --> 00:32:59,120 were involved and actually moved the 892 00:33:04,310 --> 00:33:01,760 nine foot skeleton burial from one spot 893 00:33:06,549 --> 00:33:04,320 to another spot within the abbey itself 894 00:33:08,549 --> 00:33:06,559 and you can actually see the sign 895 00:33:10,710 --> 00:33:08,559 the two signs of where it was discovered 896 00:33:12,310 --> 00:33:10,720 and where it was finally buried actually 897 00:33:15,190 --> 00:33:12,320 in the abbey today and yet they don't 898 00:33:17,269 --> 00:33:15,200 mention anything about a nine-foot 899 00:33:19,909 --> 00:33:17,279 skeleton being on earth but what's 900 00:33:22,310 --> 00:33:19,919 interesting is is that this is reported 901 00:33:23,830 --> 00:33:22,320 on for the next 200 years and verified 902 00:33:26,230 --> 00:33:23,840 over and over again by people who 903 00:33:27,590 --> 00:33:26,240 witnessed it and yet it's not really 904 00:33:30,149 --> 00:33:27,600 talked about it's not in the kind of 905 00:33:33,190 --> 00:33:30,159 classic glastonbury mythos that people 906 00:33:36,389 --> 00:33:33,200 write about today and discuss today so 907 00:33:39,110 --> 00:33:36,399 but this is also the area of a tribe of 908 00:33:41,350 --> 00:33:39,120 giants called the kangik giants 909 00:33:43,430 --> 00:33:41,360 this was written about in the 1600s by a 910 00:33:45,029 --> 00:33:43,440 gentleman called reverend robert gay who 911 00:33:47,350 --> 00:33:45,039 was from somerset 912 00:33:48,389 --> 00:33:47,360 he was a bit of an anarchist but also he 913 00:33:51,990 --> 00:33:48,399 was 914 00:33:53,509 --> 00:33:52,000 like involved in his church and all this 915 00:33:55,430 --> 00:33:53,519 kind of stuff but he wrote this book 916 00:33:57,669 --> 00:33:55,440 called the fool's bolt soon shot at 917 00:33:59,190 --> 00:33:57,679 stonehenge and it was like a sarcastic 918 00:34:00,789 --> 00:33:59,200 look at all the revelations that were 919 00:34:02,389 --> 00:34:00,799 coming out about stonehenge that william 920 00:34:04,789 --> 00:34:02,399 stookly and john albright been writing 921 00:34:06,549 --> 00:34:04,799 about around that time 922 00:34:07,669 --> 00:34:06,559 and he wrote about this tribe of giants 923 00:34:09,349 --> 00:34:07,679 called the kangaroo giants and it was 924 00:34:11,190 --> 00:34:09,359 part of this mythos that he picked up 925 00:34:13,589 --> 00:34:11,200 from from the area they were from 926 00:34:15,030 --> 00:34:13,599 somerset and some people say that they 927 00:34:17,109 --> 00:34:15,040 might have been connected it might have 928 00:34:20,629 --> 00:34:17,119 been one one of them might have ended up 929 00:34:21,990 --> 00:34:20,639 beneath the ground at the abbey and also 930 00:34:23,349 --> 00:34:22,000 they're very strongly connected with 931 00:34:25,109 --> 00:34:23,359 stonehenge they were actually said to 932 00:34:27,990 --> 00:34:25,119 have built stonehenge 933 00:34:29,430 --> 00:34:28,000 after they defeated an incoming tribe 934 00:34:31,109 --> 00:34:29,440 coming in from the east they went 935 00:34:33,589 --> 00:34:31,119 towards the east to the borders of 936 00:34:35,909 --> 00:34:33,599 somerset into wiltshire and built it as 937 00:34:37,349 --> 00:34:35,919 a trophy of their victory and so you've 938 00:34:39,589 --> 00:34:37,359 got all these kind of strange 939 00:34:42,310 --> 00:34:39,599 connections kind of merging once again 940 00:34:44,149 --> 00:34:42,320 but yeah but the glastonbury giant is a 941 00:34:45,990 --> 00:34:44,159 absolutely fascinating story i mean 942 00:34:47,030 --> 00:34:46,000 where the bones are now we just don't 943 00:34:48,470 --> 00:34:47,040 know but 944 00:34:50,100 --> 00:34:48,480 possibly they're still buried in the 945 00:34:51,510 --> 00:34:50,110 abbey 946 00:34:53,750 --> 00:34:51,520 [Music] 947 00:34:55,349 --> 00:34:53,760 yeah that seems to be the case 948 00:34:57,829 --> 00:34:55,359 in a lot of these stories is that we 949 00:35:00,710 --> 00:34:57,839 don't know where the bones are anymore 950 00:35:03,349 --> 00:35:00,720 even though there's so many stories and 951 00:35:04,870 --> 00:35:03,359 let's get into it the cover-up aspect 952 00:35:06,790 --> 00:35:04,880 pretty much one of the most provocative 953 00:35:08,710 --> 00:35:06,800 things i always want to go for is why 954 00:35:10,790 --> 00:35:08,720 don't we have more information about 955 00:35:13,190 --> 00:35:10,800 this what is going on with the cover-ups 956 00:35:15,190 --> 00:35:13,200 in so many different areas but 957 00:35:17,589 --> 00:35:15,200 everybody knows that when it comes to 958 00:35:19,910 --> 00:35:17,599 giants the smithsonian is involved to a 959 00:35:22,310 --> 00:35:19,920 degree they receive these remains then 960 00:35:25,030 --> 00:35:22,320 they never seem to surface again 961 00:35:27,270 --> 00:35:25,040 but to what depths does this cover-up go 962 00:35:28,790 --> 00:35:27,280 are there other organizations involved 963 00:35:31,550 --> 00:35:28,800 when it comes to the giants of the 964 00:35:33,910 --> 00:35:31,560 british isles what's going on with the 965 00:35:35,750 --> 00:35:33,920 pre-smithsonian remains that should be 966 00:35:37,829 --> 00:35:35,760 out there you actually have a great 967 00:35:40,790 --> 00:35:37,839 image of the queen looking at a giant 968 00:35:43,270 --> 00:35:40,800 skeleton in a display case so maybe she 969 00:35:44,950 --> 00:35:43,280 knows a little something about it but 970 00:35:47,430 --> 00:35:44,960 what would you say about the cover-up 971 00:35:49,349 --> 00:35:47,440 and and why we just can't seem to 972 00:35:51,589 --> 00:35:49,359 penetrate this stuff i mean obviously 973 00:35:53,349 --> 00:35:51,599 you guys are but the smoking gun it's 974 00:35:55,109 --> 00:35:53,359 got to be out there somewhere somebody's 975 00:35:57,109 --> 00:35:55,119 got it what would you say about the 976 00:35:59,270 --> 00:35:57,119 cover-up aspect here 977 00:36:01,270 --> 00:35:59,280 yeah i'd say that 978 00:36:04,870 --> 00:36:01,280 i'll talk about what i know 979 00:36:07,910 --> 00:36:04,880 which is that the smithsonian scientists 980 00:36:10,829 --> 00:36:07,920 unearthed you know close to 20 skeletons 981 00:36:14,069 --> 00:36:10,839 in the late 1800s seven foot eight foot 982 00:36:18,550 --> 00:36:14,079 tall massive jaw bones 983 00:36:20,390 --> 00:36:18,560 one in 1873 thomas perrin in illinois 984 00:36:23,190 --> 00:36:20,400 found and reported a 985 00:36:24,790 --> 00:36:23,200 36 inch circumference skull and many 986 00:36:26,870 --> 00:36:24,800 other giant skulls 987 00:36:28,550 --> 00:36:26,880 although those crumbled to dust in 988 00:36:30,710 --> 00:36:28,560 several of the accounts 989 00:36:32,870 --> 00:36:30,720 not only the smithsonian literature but 990 00:36:35,109 --> 00:36:32,880 in other academic sources in town and 991 00:36:37,510 --> 00:36:35,119 county histories crumbled to dust as 992 00:36:39,430 --> 00:36:37,520 well which would account for 993 00:36:42,310 --> 00:36:39,440 some loss of evidence 994 00:36:44,710 --> 00:36:42,320 but the smithsonian had a rather racist 995 00:36:47,910 --> 00:36:44,720 and zealous head of anthropology 996 00:36:51,109 --> 00:36:47,920 dr hertlichke from about 1900 to about 997 00:36:52,230 --> 00:36:51,119 1940 and he never acknowledged those 998 00:36:54,790 --> 00:36:52,240 fines 999 00:36:57,109 --> 00:36:54,800 in 1933 he said you know giants are no 1000 00:37:00,230 --> 00:36:57,119 more he wrote this article where he 1001 00:37:02,710 --> 00:37:00,240 basically said these fines are wishful 1002 00:37:04,630 --> 00:37:02,720 thinking and misidentification and 1003 00:37:07,510 --> 00:37:04,640 hoaxes and stuff like that 1004 00:37:10,710 --> 00:37:07,520 so you know it was a move away from more 1005 00:37:12,950 --> 00:37:10,720 mythological ideas in science 1006 00:37:15,510 --> 00:37:12,960 science and religion had a great war if 1007 00:37:17,430 --> 00:37:15,520 you will in the 1800s and for good 1008 00:37:20,470 --> 00:37:17,440 reason science moved away from some 1009 00:37:22,069 --> 00:37:20,480 religious ideas but i like to think both 1010 00:37:25,109 --> 00:37:22,079 parties have some things right and 1011 00:37:26,710 --> 00:37:25,119 something's wrong so i don't extend a 1012 00:37:29,349 --> 00:37:26,720 massive cut you know i work with 1013 00:37:31,750 --> 00:37:29,359 professional anthropologists because i 1014 00:37:33,589 --> 00:37:31,760 discuss these things and i i like to get 1015 00:37:35,190 --> 00:37:33,599 both sides of the story 1016 00:37:37,589 --> 00:37:35,200 and 1017 00:37:40,950 --> 00:37:37,599 institutions i don't trust as far as you 1018 00:37:42,230 --> 00:37:40,960 can throw them a cabal of individual 1019 00:37:44,310 --> 00:37:42,240 academics 1020 00:37:45,670 --> 00:37:44,320 covering things up i don't really buy 1021 00:37:48,230 --> 00:37:45,680 but like i said 1022 00:37:50,630 --> 00:37:48,240 there's kind of a paradigm that views 1023 00:37:53,750 --> 00:37:50,640 these ideas as kind of fringe or 1024 00:37:55,589 --> 00:37:53,760 mythological so there's not a lot of 1025 00:37:56,710 --> 00:37:55,599 reason to delve into these subjects you 1026 00:37:58,710 --> 00:37:56,720 get into 1027 00:38:00,069 --> 00:37:58,720 ideas that are frowned upon in academic 1028 00:38:02,069 --> 00:38:00,079 circles 1029 00:38:04,630 --> 00:38:02,079 and i just feel like 1030 00:38:05,910 --> 00:38:04,640 science is slow to react but you know 1031 00:38:08,790 --> 00:38:05,920 things are changing moving in the right 1032 00:38:10,630 --> 00:38:08,800 direction with new finds and new science 1033 00:38:12,069 --> 00:38:10,640 i wish i had a better answer quite 1034 00:38:14,950 --> 00:38:12,079 frankly because when you read through 1035 00:38:17,670 --> 00:38:14,960 all the evidence it's quite astonishing 1036 00:38:19,670 --> 00:38:17,680 you find bones that are on display 1037 00:38:21,589 --> 00:38:19,680 credible people measurements of 1038 00:38:22,870 --> 00:38:21,599 stationary objects that are absolutely 1039 00:38:24,710 --> 00:38:22,880 enormous 1040 00:38:27,270 --> 00:38:24,720 and you know you and i can go to ball 1041 00:38:29,589 --> 00:38:27,280 back lebanon and show you the trilothon 1042 00:38:31,910 --> 00:38:29,599 and we can show you all kinds of weird 1043 00:38:34,230 --> 00:38:31,920 beings and inexplicable evidence around 1044 00:38:36,870 --> 00:38:34,240 the planet evidence of cataclysm and 1045 00:38:39,589 --> 00:38:36,880 other things in in places like gobekli 1046 00:38:40,630 --> 00:38:39,599 tepe that are so ancient that it upends 1047 00:38:42,150 --> 00:38:40,640 history 1048 00:38:44,790 --> 00:38:42,160 but i have not 1049 00:38:47,430 --> 00:38:44,800 seen and dna tested the 12-foot skeleton 1050 00:38:49,670 --> 00:38:47,440 as of yet and i just say it's kind of 1051 00:38:51,349 --> 00:38:49,680 frustrating in that regard but we like 1052 00:38:53,109 --> 00:38:51,359 just to lay out the case and let people 1053 00:38:55,270 --> 00:38:53,119 decide for themselves 1054 00:38:58,069 --> 00:38:55,280 right right and i agree with what you 1055 00:39:00,390 --> 00:38:58,079 said it is in the institutions and the 1056 00:39:01,990 --> 00:39:00,400 education it does enough to 1057 00:39:03,910 --> 00:39:02,000 sort out the 1058 00:39:06,069 --> 00:39:03,920 serious professionals from the rogue 1059 00:39:08,630 --> 00:39:06,079 scholars because you can't get your 1060 00:39:10,870 --> 00:39:08,640 professional archaeology merit badge if 1061 00:39:12,710 --> 00:39:10,880 you talk about this kind of stuff and 1062 00:39:14,630 --> 00:39:12,720 yes it's great that that's breaking down 1063 00:39:17,589 --> 00:39:14,640 a little bit but that is what has kept 1064 00:39:19,190 --> 00:39:17,599 the secrets uh in in my opinion but hugh 1065 00:39:21,190 --> 00:39:19,200 what were you going to say 1066 00:39:23,190 --> 00:39:21,200 yeah oh no i can't yeah agree with jim 1067 00:39:24,790 --> 00:39:23,200 and in britain it's actually quite 1068 00:39:26,950 --> 00:39:24,800 similar i mean it's quite a similar 1069 00:39:29,589 --> 00:39:26,960 story but it goes back quite a bit 1070 00:39:31,430 --> 00:39:29,599 further you know and things happening at 1071 00:39:32,470 --> 00:39:31,440 different times we're really talking 1072 00:39:35,349 --> 00:39:32,480 about 1073 00:39:37,670 --> 00:39:35,359 the switch over from like a pagan 1074 00:39:40,630 --> 00:39:37,680 culture going into a christian culture 1075 00:39:42,550 --> 00:39:40,640 so we're talking like from 500 a.d 1076 00:39:45,589 --> 00:39:42,560 going all the way up to like we're 1077 00:39:48,150 --> 00:39:45,599 talking the 16 1700s so you know one and 1078 00:39:49,829 --> 00:39:48,160 a half thousand years of kind of people 1079 00:39:51,030 --> 00:39:49,839 holding on to these old traditions 1080 00:39:52,790 --> 00:39:51,040 because 1081 00:39:54,390 --> 00:39:52,800 these kind of stories of the giants you 1082 00:39:56,150 --> 00:39:54,400 know we've got jack the giant killer 1083 00:39:58,310 --> 00:39:56,160 which we know has been proven 1084 00:40:00,950 --> 00:39:58,320 scientifically through you know quite 1085 00:40:03,750 --> 00:40:00,960 serious scholarly research to be 5 000 1086 00:40:05,750 --> 00:40:03,760 years old at least so that suggests many 1087 00:40:09,270 --> 00:40:05,760 of these other giant myths and stories 1088 00:40:11,430 --> 00:40:09,280 and creation myths are this kind of age 1089 00:40:13,190 --> 00:40:11,440 and so i'm not just talking about pagan 1090 00:40:16,150 --> 00:40:13,200 times we're talking about neolithic 1091 00:40:18,150 --> 00:40:16,160 times times of the megaliths times of 1092 00:40:20,150 --> 00:40:18,160 the kind of megalithic tombs stone 1093 00:40:22,630 --> 00:40:20,160 circles and other such things 1094 00:40:25,910 --> 00:40:22,640 and there's a gradual kind of push 1095 00:40:28,950 --> 00:40:25,920 by the church to remove 1096 00:40:31,670 --> 00:40:28,960 anything pagan like building over pagan 1097 00:40:33,270 --> 00:40:31,680 megalithic sites put churches on them so 1098 00:40:35,829 --> 00:40:33,280 they're all kind of now on these ley 1099 00:40:37,589 --> 00:40:35,839 lines and things like this and so when 1100 00:40:38,390 --> 00:40:37,599 they were finding these skeletons and 1101 00:40:39,829 --> 00:40:38,400 bones 1102 00:40:41,829 --> 00:40:39,839 it was all really connected with this 1103 00:40:43,030 --> 00:40:41,839 pagan story you know and so they they 1104 00:40:44,069 --> 00:40:43,040 kind of would brush them under the 1105 00:40:46,069 --> 00:40:44,079 carpet 1106 00:40:50,069 --> 00:40:46,079 and then we know that right up until you 1107 00:40:53,030 --> 00:40:50,079 know the 1800s and early 1900s there was 1108 00:40:54,470 --> 00:40:53,040 a whole movement of especially pushing 1109 00:40:56,550 --> 00:40:54,480 into wales 1110 00:40:58,309 --> 00:40:56,560 where many of the traditions held strong 1111 00:41:00,390 --> 00:40:58,319 even their old welsh languages was the 1112 00:41:02,630 --> 00:41:00,400 old british language you know many 1113 00:41:03,990 --> 00:41:02,640 hundreds or thousands of years ago and 1114 00:41:05,349 --> 00:41:04,000 they were pushing in there they were 1115 00:41:07,589 --> 00:41:05,359 trying to deny 1116 00:41:09,750 --> 00:41:07,599 their history like because it was in 1117 00:41:12,069 --> 00:41:09,760 there they were taught in history the 1118 00:41:14,230 --> 00:41:12,079 brutus did come over he did defeat gog 1119 00:41:16,470 --> 00:41:14,240 and magog and the giants he did found 1120 00:41:18,550 --> 00:41:16,480 london he did have 1121 00:41:21,109 --> 00:41:18,560 gog magog as the protector of london and 1122 00:41:23,349 --> 00:41:21,119 so forth this was actually history 1123 00:41:25,910 --> 00:41:23,359 up until the early 1900s but this got 1124 00:41:28,710 --> 00:41:25,920 changed and pushed back and all this 1125 00:41:30,150 --> 00:41:28,720 kind of new emerging science and these 1126 00:41:32,230 --> 00:41:30,160 christian kind of 1127 00:41:33,589 --> 00:41:32,240 new testament dogma was brought in to 1128 00:41:36,710 --> 00:41:33,599 replace that 1129 00:41:38,390 --> 00:41:36,720 so we lost a lot of what was part of our 1130 00:41:40,150 --> 00:41:38,400 kind of culture it was part of our 1131 00:41:42,950 --> 00:41:40,160 consciousness it was part of our memory 1132 00:41:45,190 --> 00:41:42,960 system our oral tradition 1133 00:41:47,270 --> 00:41:45,200 fortunately a lot of this was recorded 1134 00:41:49,510 --> 00:41:47,280 before this happened before it all got 1135 00:41:51,589 --> 00:41:49,520 lost and there's a few scholars i could 1136 00:41:53,750 --> 00:41:51,599 mention like chris grooms 1137 00:41:56,470 --> 00:41:53,760 john reese davis back in he was actually 1138 00:41:58,390 --> 00:41:56,480 collecting stories in the 1500s in wales 1139 00:42:00,069 --> 00:41:58,400 and documenting giant skeletons at the 1140 00:42:03,030 --> 00:42:00,079 same time and he was talking about this 1141 00:42:04,550 --> 00:42:03,040 problem as it was happening and so 1142 00:42:06,630 --> 00:42:04,560 there's like you know like like jim said 1143 00:42:09,270 --> 00:42:06,640 it's not really a big conspiracy it's 1144 00:42:10,470 --> 00:42:09,280 just a series of like agendas 1145 00:42:13,589 --> 00:42:10,480 religion 1146 00:42:15,349 --> 00:42:13,599 changes in thoughts about what science 1147 00:42:17,190 --> 00:42:15,359 is and things like this 1148 00:42:19,430 --> 00:42:17,200 which just unfortunately pushed the 1149 00:42:21,430 --> 00:42:19,440 whole giant story under the carpet and 1150 00:42:24,550 --> 00:42:21,440 it pushed it away and kind of put it 1151 00:42:26,550 --> 00:42:24,560 into this denial part of reality and so 1152 00:42:28,069 --> 00:42:26,560 we're contending with that 1153 00:42:30,309 --> 00:42:28,079 so there's a lot more to it than meets 1154 00:42:32,069 --> 00:42:30,319 the eye but there are so many accounts 1155 00:42:34,309 --> 00:42:32,079 that we've come across that are recorded 1156 00:42:35,829 --> 00:42:34,319 very long time ago and they were so 1157 00:42:37,589 --> 00:42:35,839 matter of fact the way they were 1158 00:42:39,670 --> 00:42:37,599 measured and put out into the public 1159 00:42:41,990 --> 00:42:39,680 domain that you know there's certainly a 1160 00:42:43,430 --> 00:42:42,000 reality to this which is just absolutely 1161 00:42:45,750 --> 00:42:43,440 kind of mind-blowing when you start 1162 00:42:47,510 --> 00:42:45,760 looking into it 1163 00:42:50,710 --> 00:42:47,520 that's a pretty good breakdown maybe it 1164 00:42:52,950 --> 00:42:50,720 is less conspiracy and more a series of 1165 00:42:53,990 --> 00:42:52,960 unfortunate events but it is always hard 1166 00:42:56,150 --> 00:42:54,000 to tell 1167 00:42:58,230 --> 00:42:56,160 who's motivated to do what when we're 1168 00:43:00,710 --> 00:42:58,240 looking at time depths that we're 1169 00:43:03,109 --> 00:43:00,720 talking about and i would suspect that 1170 00:43:05,030 --> 00:43:03,119 where the cover-up is concerned 1171 00:43:07,910 --> 00:43:05,040 i would think maybe the royal society 1172 00:43:10,390 --> 00:43:07,920 plays its usual part somewhere in there 1173 00:43:12,710 --> 00:43:10,400 but it is a tangled web and i'm glad 1174 00:43:15,270 --> 00:43:12,720 that you guys are resurrecting a lot of 1175 00:43:17,990 --> 00:43:15,280 this stuff and i can't get through this 1176 00:43:20,550 --> 00:43:18,000 first hour without diving deeper into 1177 00:43:23,750 --> 00:43:20,560 the magic stuff we had some passing 1178 00:43:25,990 --> 00:43:23,760 references to magic and geomancy but i 1179 00:43:28,390 --> 00:43:26,000 mean it gets pretty deep according to 1180 00:43:30,390 --> 00:43:28,400 the book not only were these giants 1181 00:43:32,950 --> 00:43:30,400 oftentimes kings and queens but you say 1182 00:43:35,750 --> 00:43:32,960 quote they were often master geomancers 1183 00:43:38,550 --> 00:43:35,760 surveyors architects and astronomers who 1184 00:43:40,150 --> 00:43:38,560 ruled from their mountaintop fortresses 1185 00:43:42,309 --> 00:43:40,160 and then there's this other paragraph 1186 00:43:44,710 --> 00:43:42,319 where you say 1187 00:43:46,710 --> 00:43:44,720 a wealth of folklore from england wales 1188 00:43:48,870 --> 00:43:46,720 scotland and ireland talk about 1189 00:43:50,870 --> 00:43:48,880 sophisticated cultures of giants with 1190 00:43:53,990 --> 00:43:50,880 supernatural powers and advanced 1191 00:43:56,309 --> 00:43:54,000 technology who had control over thunder 1192 00:43:58,390 --> 00:43:56,319 and lightning as witnessed when their 1193 00:43:59,910 --> 00:43:58,400 tombs were disturbed by later 1194 00:44:03,109 --> 00:43:59,920 generations 1195 00:44:06,710 --> 00:44:03,119 and i guess in an open-ended sense what 1196 00:44:08,870 --> 00:44:06,720 more can you guys say about the range of 1197 00:44:11,190 --> 00:44:08,880 magical abilities that are talked about 1198 00:44:12,710 --> 00:44:11,200 or maybe we call it high science or 1199 00:44:14,790 --> 00:44:12,720 hidden science 1200 00:44:16,870 --> 00:44:14,800 but this is quite interesting and the 1201 00:44:19,670 --> 00:44:16,880 control of weather i mean 1202 00:44:21,670 --> 00:44:19,680 that's a real provocative one 1203 00:44:24,230 --> 00:44:21,680 that is yeah that's the kind of classic 1204 00:44:26,309 --> 00:44:24,240 sowers of thunder mythos this is 1205 00:44:29,349 --> 00:44:26,319 actually brought to our attention by a 1206 00:44:31,109 --> 00:44:29,359 brilliant author called anthony roberts 1207 00:44:33,190 --> 00:44:31,119 he wrote a book called sowers of thunder 1208 00:44:34,390 --> 00:44:33,200 back in 1917. he was a glastonbury 1209 00:44:36,069 --> 00:44:34,400 resident 1210 00:44:37,670 --> 00:44:36,079 and he was part of the whole earth 1211 00:44:39,910 --> 00:44:37,680 mysteries movement but he did a lot of 1212 00:44:41,990 --> 00:44:39,920 research into these giants and realized 1213 00:44:44,230 --> 00:44:42,000 that there was this geomantic 1214 00:44:46,230 --> 00:44:44,240 element to it you know and also he found 1215 00:44:47,829 --> 00:44:46,240 you know a handful of accounts where 1216 00:44:50,230 --> 00:44:47,839 there were stories of people when they 1217 00:44:51,589 --> 00:44:50,240 disturbed the graves of giants in over 1218 00:44:53,750 --> 00:44:51,599 in the last few hundred years these 1219 00:44:56,150 --> 00:44:53,760 thousands of years old burials that 1220 00:44:58,150 --> 00:44:56,160 giant storms and thunder and lightning 1221 00:45:00,470 --> 00:44:58,160 would occur immediately and it would 1222 00:45:02,230 --> 00:45:00,480 terrify the desecrator and they was run 1223 00:45:03,829 --> 00:45:02,240 off and so we looked into that in more 1224 00:45:04,630 --> 00:45:03,839 detail and we thought hang on a sec 1225 00:45:06,790 --> 00:45:04,640 because 1226 00:45:08,550 --> 00:45:06,800 these not only i mean jim can talk about 1227 00:45:09,430 --> 00:45:08,560 this in a moment but not only do we have 1228 00:45:11,990 --> 00:45:09,440 these 1229 00:45:13,829 --> 00:45:12,000 kind of high kings and queens and rulers 1230 00:45:15,270 --> 00:45:13,839 who had these magical powers like we 1231 00:45:17,430 --> 00:45:15,280 find in ireland we find with the 1232 00:45:18,550 --> 00:45:17,440 children of doane in wales and so on and 1233 00:45:20,710 --> 00:45:18,560 so forth 1234 00:45:23,670 --> 00:45:20,720 but they actually had 1235 00:45:26,069 --> 00:45:23,680 spells placed over their burials and so 1236 00:45:28,069 --> 00:45:26,079 when people in relatively modern times 1237 00:45:30,150 --> 00:45:28,079 last few hundred years would dig them up 1238 00:45:31,750 --> 00:45:30,160 it would literally cause a storm like 1239 00:45:34,710 --> 00:45:31,760 immediately as soon as they started 1240 00:45:37,670 --> 00:45:34,720 digging and sometimes earthquakes 1241 00:45:39,990 --> 00:45:37,680 sometimes such delusion rain that it 1242 00:45:42,230 --> 00:45:40,000 would just almost drown the people it 1243 00:45:43,910 --> 00:45:42,240 would terrify them and we're not just 1244 00:45:46,550 --> 00:45:43,920 talking one or two accounts we've got 1245 00:45:49,030 --> 00:45:46,560 something like 40 accounts or something 1246 00:45:50,710 --> 00:45:49,040 in the historical record and most of 1247 00:45:52,870 --> 00:45:50,720 these are giants greys but we also even 1248 00:45:54,790 --> 00:45:52,880 have the same story at silbury hill we 1249 00:45:57,670 --> 00:45:54,800 have the same story at stanton drew 1250 00:45:59,910 --> 00:45:57,680 triple stone circles where lightning 1251 00:46:01,990 --> 00:45:59,920 formed into like a spiral into the 1252 00:46:04,710 --> 00:46:02,000 center of the circle this was documented 1253 00:46:08,550 --> 00:46:04,720 by a doctor you know back in i think the 1254 00:46:10,069 --> 00:46:08,560 17 or late 1700s and so what is going on 1255 00:46:11,990 --> 00:46:10,079 here so there's two things we looked 1256 00:46:13,589 --> 00:46:12,000 into in the book one of them was the 1257 00:46:15,750 --> 00:46:13,599 fact that they were just master 1258 00:46:17,750 --> 00:46:15,760 magicians and sorcerers and this was 1259 00:46:19,510 --> 00:46:17,760 part of their lineage it was part of 1260 00:46:21,589 --> 00:46:19,520 their magical lineage and as jim will 1261 00:46:23,270 --> 00:46:21,599 talk about in a second we know that 1262 00:46:25,670 --> 00:46:23,280 there because the myths and the stories 1263 00:46:28,069 --> 00:46:25,680 the creation stories of ireland wales 1264 00:46:30,309 --> 00:46:28,079 and even scotland as well talk about 1265 00:46:31,430 --> 00:46:30,319 these high-level kind of magicians who 1266 00:46:33,190 --> 00:46:31,440 not only 1267 00:46:35,030 --> 00:46:33,200 do the magic they were masters of 1268 00:46:36,870 --> 00:46:35,040 technology as well and had different 1269 00:46:38,069 --> 00:46:36,880 types of technology and weapons and 1270 00:46:39,910 --> 00:46:38,079 things like this 1271 00:46:41,670 --> 00:46:39,920 but the other angle we looked at was the 1272 00:46:43,270 --> 00:46:41,680 fact that it might be a kind of earth 1273 00:46:45,510 --> 00:46:43,280 energy science 1274 00:46:47,750 --> 00:46:45,520 and this is something we found to be the 1275 00:46:49,430 --> 00:46:47,760 case it could be the case because if you 1276 00:46:51,190 --> 00:46:49,440 build something in a specific way and 1277 00:46:53,190 --> 00:46:51,200 you're working with the earth energies 1278 00:46:55,349 --> 00:46:53,200 in a very specific way 1279 00:46:56,950 --> 00:46:55,359 and constructing with different layers 1280 00:46:59,030 --> 00:46:56,960 you get like this orgone effect you get 1281 00:47:01,030 --> 00:46:59,040 all this energetic effect and you build 1282 00:47:03,190 --> 00:47:01,040 it on high points in the landscape to 1283 00:47:05,270 --> 00:47:03,200 attract lightning and things like this 1284 00:47:07,910 --> 00:47:05,280 so they could have had this kind of 1285 00:47:10,150 --> 00:47:07,920 scientific understanding of 1286 00:47:11,349 --> 00:47:10,160 placing their burials in very specific 1287 00:47:14,150 --> 00:47:11,359 places 1288 00:47:15,750 --> 00:47:14,160 that would manipulate the environment 1289 00:47:18,150 --> 00:47:15,760 around them you know they were like what 1290 00:47:20,069 --> 00:47:18,160 were called thunderstorm capacitors but 1291 00:47:21,030 --> 00:47:20,079 they would build up charge and whenever 1292 00:47:23,910 --> 00:47:21,040 it was 1293 00:47:25,349 --> 00:47:23,920 interfered with or changed in any way it 1294 00:47:27,190 --> 00:47:25,359 would just trigger 1295 00:47:28,870 --> 00:47:27,200 the weather to change and so you know we 1296 00:47:30,870 --> 00:47:28,880 look into that in more i can't go into 1297 00:47:32,710 --> 00:47:30,880 all the specifics right now but 1298 00:47:35,190 --> 00:47:32,720 we were kind of blown away by this but 1299 00:47:36,549 --> 00:47:35,200 we think that these giants many of them 1300 00:47:38,390 --> 00:47:36,559 at least 1301 00:47:40,470 --> 00:47:38,400 this is what you know we discovered that 1302 00:47:43,349 --> 00:47:40,480 they were literally like magicians they 1303 00:47:44,630 --> 00:47:43,359 were master sorcerers they had control 1304 00:47:47,109 --> 00:47:44,640 of the elements 1305 00:47:49,270 --> 00:47:47,119 they were probably telekinetic they 1306 00:47:51,190 --> 00:47:49,280 probably had control of people's minds 1307 00:47:53,190 --> 00:47:51,200 in the case of merlin it seemed like he 1308 00:47:55,750 --> 00:47:53,200 could levitate stones just by using 1309 00:47:58,069 --> 00:47:55,760 magic or using his mind but when you 1310 00:48:00,630 --> 00:47:58,079 find the actual historical account of 1311 00:48:02,309 --> 00:48:00,640 people having these direct experiences 1312 00:48:03,990 --> 00:48:02,319 of these storms and thunder and 1313 00:48:06,069 --> 00:48:04,000 lightning occurring as soon as they 1314 00:48:08,309 --> 00:48:06,079 start digging a grave you have to take 1315 00:48:10,870 --> 00:48:08,319 note that these were very powerful 1316 00:48:12,630 --> 00:48:10,880 individuals who were buried there 1317 00:48:14,950 --> 00:48:12,640 hmm 1318 00:48:17,190 --> 00:48:14,960 damn well jim you had anything to add on 1319 00:48:18,150 --> 00:48:17,200 the magic front i can't get enough magic 1320 00:48:19,829 --> 00:48:18,160 talk 1321 00:48:20,950 --> 00:48:19,839 absolutely that was a pretty good 1322 00:48:23,190 --> 00:48:20,960 summation 1323 00:48:24,710 --> 00:48:23,200 and when you read through the book and 1324 00:48:26,630 --> 00:48:24,720 you read the different chapters of the 1325 00:48:29,349 --> 00:48:26,640 geomancy of the giants and the souls of 1326 00:48:31,109 --> 00:48:29,359 thunder you can see that there's a 1327 00:48:33,990 --> 00:48:31,119 an intelligent science behind what we're 1328 00:48:35,990 --> 00:48:34,000 talking about that the way you put in 1329 00:48:38,390 --> 00:48:36,000 acupuncture needles in the human body to 1330 00:48:41,589 --> 00:48:38,400 modulate the energy systems the same 1331 00:48:44,309 --> 00:48:41,599 thing occurs on earth and you get into 1332 00:48:46,790 --> 00:48:44,319 ideas of tolerance energy and ley lines 1333 00:48:49,349 --> 00:48:46,800 the earth being a living being 1334 00:48:51,670 --> 00:48:49,359 things that are understood now by many 1335 00:48:52,870 --> 00:48:51,680 and that just make logical sense as well 1336 00:48:54,870 --> 00:48:52,880 you don't have to be scientific to 1337 00:48:57,109 --> 00:48:54,880 understand these concepts but there's 1338 00:48:59,430 --> 00:48:57,119 this geomantic science clearly that's at 1339 00:49:02,069 --> 00:48:59,440 work this isn't wishful thinking and 1340 00:49:04,390 --> 00:49:02,079 like he was saying use specific stones 1341 00:49:05,910 --> 00:49:04,400 you divine the right location 1342 00:49:07,670 --> 00:49:05,920 and you know if you ever deal with 1343 00:49:09,589 --> 00:49:07,680 somebody who has 1344 00:49:11,030 --> 00:49:09,599 supernatural abilities or psychic 1345 00:49:13,510 --> 00:49:11,040 abilities i deal with a lot of 1346 00:49:14,870 --> 00:49:13,520 clairvoyance and spiritual masters and 1347 00:49:16,950 --> 00:49:14,880 they just come from a different place 1348 00:49:19,750 --> 00:49:16,960 they have a different set of abilities 1349 00:49:21,670 --> 00:49:19,760 and you realize that this isn't a fairy 1350 00:49:24,309 --> 00:49:21,680 tale that there is something to this 1351 00:49:26,309 --> 00:49:24,319 even ideas like levitation or high magic 1352 00:49:28,790 --> 00:49:26,319 is just a form of technology that is not 1353 00:49:30,390 --> 00:49:28,800 really understood these days because the 1354 00:49:32,069 --> 00:49:30,400 ancient ones were 1355 00:49:34,069 --> 00:49:32,079 you know the scientists were spiritual 1356 00:49:36,710 --> 00:49:34,079 masters as well they were initiated in 1357 00:49:38,069 --> 00:49:36,720 mystery schools like plato and 1358 00:49:41,030 --> 00:49:38,079 pythagoras 1359 00:49:43,589 --> 00:49:41,040 and once again you have a 1360 00:49:46,549 --> 00:49:43,599 left brain male dominated 1361 00:49:49,190 --> 00:49:46,559 academia that is oriented towards 1362 00:49:52,549 --> 00:49:49,200 abusive rationalistic thinking 1363 00:49:55,589 --> 00:49:52,559 exclusion of more metaphysical ideas and 1364 00:49:58,150 --> 00:49:55,599 sources and i just think we are left 1365 00:50:00,069 --> 00:49:58,160 interpreting shadows on on a cave wall 1366 00:50:02,150 --> 00:50:00,079 rather than understanding the heart of 1367 00:50:05,190 --> 00:50:02,160 the matter you know 1368 00:50:07,270 --> 00:50:05,200 so to turn back to these ideas i i think 1369 00:50:08,390 --> 00:50:07,280 it is clear that these races of beings 1370 00:50:10,549 --> 00:50:08,400 showed up 1371 00:50:13,109 --> 00:50:10,559 and if you look at all the traditions 1372 00:50:15,030 --> 00:50:13,119 the twatha twathadejanin these huge and 1373 00:50:16,710 --> 00:50:15,040 magical beings who show up they're 1374 00:50:18,150 --> 00:50:16,720 associated with the building of 1375 00:50:20,390 --> 00:50:18,160 newgrange 1376 00:50:22,390 --> 00:50:20,400 they show up in northern ireland 1377 00:50:23,750 --> 00:50:22,400 they are you know masters of the 1378 00:50:25,750 --> 00:50:23,760 elements 1379 00:50:27,430 --> 00:50:25,760 and you have the same stories in native 1380 00:50:30,309 --> 00:50:27,440 american tribes 1381 00:50:32,549 --> 00:50:30,319 you have the us army outlawed the sioux 1382 00:50:34,390 --> 00:50:32,559 ghost dance for instance and there's a 1383 00:50:36,790 --> 00:50:34,400 book called weather shamanism that talks 1384 00:50:38,790 --> 00:50:36,800 about native american shaman's ability 1385 00:50:41,670 --> 00:50:38,800 to control the weather and how it 1386 00:50:45,030 --> 00:50:41,680 terrified the us army and they outlawed 1387 00:50:47,829 --> 00:50:45,040 these ideas so our culture is like 1388 00:50:50,630 --> 00:50:47,839 burnt out and bankrupt and has very 1389 00:50:53,109 --> 00:50:50,640 little connection to the divine or the 1390 00:50:56,470 --> 00:50:53,119 supernatural but the ancient indigenous 1391 00:50:58,390 --> 00:50:56,480 cultures and this lost golden age 1392 00:51:01,430 --> 00:50:58,400 had this level of connection that would 1393 00:51:03,750 --> 00:51:01,440 be portrayed as supernatural or 1394 00:51:06,150 --> 00:51:03,760 of advanced technology to 1395 00:51:08,150 --> 00:51:06,160 less of all people in the past so 1396 00:51:10,630 --> 00:51:08,160 to bring it all together i think you 1397 00:51:12,790 --> 00:51:10,640 know you have these ideas associated 1398 00:51:15,190 --> 00:51:12,800 with the lost world and a lot of the 1399 00:51:17,349 --> 00:51:15,200 mythology is from edgar cayce to the 1400 00:51:19,510 --> 00:51:17,359 traditions throughout the british isles 1401 00:51:22,549 --> 00:51:19,520 as there was a lost continent lost 1402 00:51:24,630 --> 00:51:22,559 islands you could talk about atlantis 1403 00:51:27,030 --> 00:51:24,640 and i know that subject's off-putting to 1404 00:51:29,510 --> 00:51:27,040 some people but i really myself believe 1405 00:51:31,030 --> 00:51:29,520 in edgar casey and plato's atlantis it 1406 00:51:33,349 --> 00:51:31,040 makes a lot of sense 1407 00:51:35,510 --> 00:51:33,359 as far as shared traditions of a mother 1408 00:51:37,589 --> 00:51:35,520 culture around the world we now know 1409 00:51:39,910 --> 00:51:37,599 that there was a cataclysmic event that 1410 00:51:42,710 --> 00:51:39,920 occurred right at the sinking of plato's 1411 00:51:45,750 --> 00:51:42,720 atlantis about 12 800 years ago called 1412 00:51:49,109 --> 00:51:45,760 the younger driest impact event 1413 00:51:52,150 --> 00:51:49,119 so you know it all comes together by 1414 00:51:55,750 --> 00:51:52,160 virtue of looking at the traditions 1415 00:51:57,270 --> 00:51:55,760 and what they state is eerily specific 1416 00:51:59,750 --> 00:51:57,280 and ubiquitous 1417 00:52:01,750 --> 00:51:59,760 and it makes sense when you 1418 00:52:02,950 --> 00:52:01,760 tie all the information together and 1419 00:52:05,349 --> 00:52:02,960 once again 1420 00:52:06,790 --> 00:52:05,359 not to disparage academia but 1421 00:52:08,710 --> 00:52:06,800 it's like 1422 00:52:10,549 --> 00:52:08,720 when you go to the doctor 1423 00:52:11,750 --> 00:52:10,559 it's good that he can set your compound 1424 00:52:14,630 --> 00:52:11,760 fracture 1425 00:52:17,030 --> 00:52:14,640 but he's not gonna look at alternative 1426 00:52:19,510 --> 00:52:17,040 ideas you know what i mean like 1427 00:52:22,710 --> 00:52:19,520 these things take a long time to take 1428 00:52:24,870 --> 00:52:22,720 hold and it's just the ideas of magical 1429 00:52:26,309 --> 00:52:24,880 worlds and supernatural beings is 1430 00:52:28,950 --> 00:52:26,319 something that is not embraced by 1431 00:52:31,109 --> 00:52:28,960 academia so the ideas are marginalized 1432 00:52:33,349 --> 00:52:31,119 and considered farcical which i 1433 00:52:36,150 --> 00:52:33,359 completely disagree with 1434 00:52:39,510 --> 00:52:36,160 yeah well said it does seem to me the 1435 00:52:42,309 --> 00:52:39,520 more interviews i do that almost every 1436 00:52:44,829 --> 00:52:42,319 slice of science if you were to 1437 00:52:47,109 --> 00:52:44,839 break up the pie into 1438 00:52:49,990 --> 00:52:47,119 biology geography all the different 1439 00:52:53,270 --> 00:52:50,000 aspects physics there's always some kind 1440 00:52:57,069 --> 00:52:53,280 of esoteric science that we seem to have 1441 00:52:59,750 --> 00:52:57,079 lost ether orgone alchemy 1442 00:53:02,990 --> 00:52:59,760 frequency-based stuff cymatics stone 1443 00:53:05,990 --> 00:53:03,000 levitation psi abilities and these weird 1444 00:53:07,829 --> 00:53:06,000 correspondences across landscapes and 1445 00:53:10,069 --> 00:53:07,839 layers of reality like multiple 1446 00:53:11,190 --> 00:53:10,079 dimensions and the human body as you 1447 00:53:13,510 --> 00:53:11,200 pointed out 1448 00:53:15,670 --> 00:53:13,520 it goes quite deep and there's a lot of 1449 00:53:18,230 --> 00:53:15,680 stuff that we need to pull out of the 1450 00:53:21,750 --> 00:53:18,240 past so to speak but man 1451 00:53:23,670 --> 00:53:21,760 just so interesting and dr greg little 1452 00:53:25,910 --> 00:53:23,680 definitely broke down edgar cayce's 1453 00:53:28,390 --> 00:53:25,920 atlantis in a previous interview and i 1454 00:53:30,230 --> 00:53:28,400 really really enjoyed that one it's kind 1455 00:53:31,349 --> 00:53:30,240 of weird how 1456 00:53:39,910 --> 00:53:31,359 we hear 1457 00:53:42,230 --> 00:53:39,920 forget how interesting the real details 1458 00:53:45,030 --> 00:53:42,240 are of these things and to have it 1459 00:53:46,549 --> 00:53:45,040 broken down at length is always a great 1460 00:53:48,790 --> 00:53:46,559 pleasure of mine 1461 00:53:50,950 --> 00:53:48,800 before we really wrap this up we should 1462 00:53:53,030 --> 00:53:50,960 spend a little more time on stonehenge 1463 00:53:55,349 --> 00:53:53,040 it is in the title of your book i now 1464 00:53:57,430 --> 00:53:55,359 know the original name of stonehenge 1465 00:54:01,030 --> 00:53:57,440 translates to the giants dance and you 1466 00:54:03,589 --> 00:54:01,040 mention the story of how it got there 1467 00:54:06,309 --> 00:54:03,599 relates to the giants building it to 1468 00:54:07,670 --> 00:54:06,319 celebrate a great battle but 1469 00:54:09,670 --> 00:54:07,680 i think stonehenge is one of these 1470 00:54:12,549 --> 00:54:09,680 things we hear about it so often we 1471 00:54:15,430 --> 00:54:12,559 maybe forget the details of why it is so 1472 00:54:16,710 --> 00:54:15,440 interesting and the math and all the 1473 00:54:18,710 --> 00:54:16,720 things about it 1474 00:54:20,950 --> 00:54:18,720 obviously in recent years it seems as if 1475 00:54:23,589 --> 00:54:20,960 the complex has gotten even bigger with 1476 00:54:25,990 --> 00:54:23,599 things that are buried underneath but 1477 00:54:27,990 --> 00:54:26,000 before we really wrap this up let me ask 1478 00:54:29,910 --> 00:54:28,000 you about stonehenge whoever wants to 1479 00:54:31,990 --> 00:54:29,920 take it but remind people of why this is 1480 00:54:34,309 --> 00:54:32,000 such a special place 1481 00:54:36,789 --> 00:54:34,319 yeah i'll just quickly say because he 1482 00:54:38,390 --> 00:54:36,799 lives a half a mile from stonehenge so 1483 00:54:39,990 --> 00:54:38,400 he'll talk all about it 1484 00:54:42,789 --> 00:54:40,000 i just want to say that 1485 00:54:46,069 --> 00:54:42,799 one point i wanted to hit is that 1486 00:54:48,630 --> 00:54:46,079 giant effigies have been paraded around 1487 00:54:51,109 --> 00:54:48,640 london in salisbury which is near 1488 00:54:52,470 --> 00:54:51,119 stonehenge or on display for long 1489 00:54:54,549 --> 00:54:52,480 periods of time 1490 00:54:56,549 --> 00:54:54,559 as part of this idea of giants being 1491 00:54:59,589 --> 00:54:56,559 embedded in the consciousness of the 1492 00:55:03,270 --> 00:54:59,599 landscape now you know why is that part 1493 00:55:05,589 --> 00:55:03,280 of the traditions why are gog and magog 1494 00:55:08,710 --> 00:55:05,599 you know noted to be these great rulers 1495 00:55:11,109 --> 00:55:08,720 and guardians of britain and i would say 1496 00:55:13,349 --> 00:55:11,119 that it's a matter of being embedded in 1497 00:55:15,750 --> 00:55:13,359 the collective unconscious it's not just 1498 00:55:17,430 --> 00:55:15,760 like a fairy tale there's a historical 1499 00:55:18,870 --> 00:55:17,440 reality that is being remembered through 1500 00:55:21,030 --> 00:55:18,880 these traditions 1501 00:55:23,190 --> 00:55:21,040 and i'll kick it to hugh and that's 1502 00:55:24,789 --> 00:55:23,200 exactly what's going on at stonehenge 1503 00:55:27,990 --> 00:55:24,799 and all the traditions surrounding it 1504 00:55:30,150 --> 00:55:28,000 it's like some trickster is giving clues 1505 00:55:32,470 --> 00:55:30,160 to figure out the reality of the 1506 00:55:35,349 --> 00:55:32,480 situation like it was once called the 1507 00:55:36,630 --> 00:55:35,359 giants dance the original name the 1508 00:55:38,549 --> 00:55:36,640 original 1509 00:55:41,510 --> 00:55:38,559 pitcher is a tapestry from the 12th 1510 00:55:43,910 --> 00:55:41,520 century with king ambrosius merlin and a 1511 00:55:45,990 --> 00:55:43,920 giant building stonehenge those are the 1512 00:55:46,870 --> 00:55:46,000 clues that we pieced together in the 1513 00:55:49,349 --> 00:55:46,880 book 1514 00:55:50,630 --> 00:55:49,359 stonehenge yeah i do live quite close to 1515 00:55:51,829 --> 00:55:50,640 it actually yeah 1516 00:55:53,750 --> 00:55:51,839 obviously it's one of the most 1517 00:55:56,390 --> 00:55:53,760 impressive ancient sites on the planet 1518 00:55:57,910 --> 00:55:56,400 it's a unique stone circle 1519 00:55:59,589 --> 00:55:57,920 there's nothing like it in britain we've 1520 00:56:00,870 --> 00:55:59,599 got a thousand stone circles in brit 1521 00:56:03,190 --> 00:56:00,880 i've written an entire book about stone 1522 00:56:05,270 --> 00:56:03,200 circles but this one has lint tools so 1523 00:56:07,349 --> 00:56:05,280 you've got these sort of stones on top 1524 00:56:09,270 --> 00:56:07,359 you've got carved stones you've got what 1525 00:56:10,789 --> 00:56:09,280 looks like scoop marks in the stones as 1526 00:56:12,630 --> 00:56:10,799 well which is really bizarre it's like 1527 00:56:13,990 --> 00:56:12,640 they've softened the stone this is 1528 00:56:15,670 --> 00:56:14,000 actually a tradition of the kangig 1529 00:56:17,349 --> 00:56:15,680 giants which we go into in the book that 1530 00:56:19,349 --> 00:56:17,359 they were able to do this much like the 1531 00:56:20,390 --> 00:56:19,359 cyclops in greece were able to do that 1532 00:56:22,950 --> 00:56:20,400 as well 1533 00:56:25,750 --> 00:56:22,960 but we have actual accounts 1534 00:56:27,430 --> 00:56:25,760 of the giants not just the 24 foot giant 1535 00:56:30,630 --> 00:56:27,440 effigy jim was talking about that they 1536 00:56:34,950 --> 00:56:30,640 parade round salisbury since the 1400s i 1537 00:56:37,589 --> 00:56:34,960 might add but also in 1719 1538 00:56:40,309 --> 00:56:37,599 just south of stonehenge near salisbury 1539 00:56:42,549 --> 00:56:40,319 in a mound called the giant's grave they 1540 00:56:44,230 --> 00:56:42,559 found a nine foot four skeleton and this 1541 00:56:46,309 --> 00:56:44,240 was reported in two different accounts 1542 00:56:49,750 --> 00:56:46,319 we've managed to uncover if we go back 1543 00:56:53,109 --> 00:56:49,760 even further to 1508 we have sir thomas 1544 00:56:55,190 --> 00:56:53,119 elliot who was a renowned scholar writer 1545 00:56:57,430 --> 00:56:55,200 he was knighted he was an mp for 1546 00:56:58,470 --> 00:56:57,440 cambridge he wrote the dictionary of all 1547 00:57:00,069 --> 00:56:58,480 books 1548 00:57:01,589 --> 00:57:00,079 as well as also a gentleman called john 1549 00:57:04,470 --> 00:57:01,599 lee learned who wrote you know 1550 00:57:05,990 --> 00:57:04,480 britannica books we have other scholars 1551 00:57:07,270 --> 00:57:06,000 and researchers at the time who 1552 00:57:10,390 --> 00:57:07,280 witnessed 1553 00:57:13,270 --> 00:57:10,400 not a 9 foot 4 skeleton but a 14 foot 10 1554 00:57:15,190 --> 00:57:13,280 inch skeleton at a place called ivy 1555 00:57:17,910 --> 00:57:15,200 church priory which again is just south 1556 00:57:20,470 --> 00:57:17,920 of stonehenge near salisbury and so this 1557 00:57:21,990 --> 00:57:20,480 was reported on that they found in the 1558 00:57:23,910 --> 00:57:22,000 coffin in the kind of it was like a 1559 00:57:25,670 --> 00:57:23,920 large kind of oak 1560 00:57:26,470 --> 00:57:25,680 kind of coffin a huge great thing 1561 00:57:28,630 --> 00:57:26,480 obviously 1562 00:57:30,230 --> 00:57:28,640 and it had this strange book with this 1563 00:57:32,549 --> 00:57:30,240 inscription on it which no one could 1564 00:57:34,950 --> 00:57:32,559 read which crumbled to dust when it was 1565 00:57:38,870 --> 00:57:34,960 uncovered but they also found this giant 1566 00:57:40,950 --> 00:57:38,880 metal tin and lead kind of table top lid 1567 00:57:42,390 --> 00:57:40,960 thing with the same kind of inscriptions 1568 00:57:43,750 --> 00:57:42,400 all over it and people have always 1569 00:57:45,030 --> 00:57:43,760 wondered where the hell that well that's 1570 00:57:46,950 --> 00:57:45,040 never been found no one knows what 1571 00:57:49,030 --> 00:57:46,960 happened but it was described in detail 1572 00:57:52,150 --> 00:57:49,040 by thomas elliot and john leland at the 1573 00:57:53,829 --> 00:57:52,160 time respected scholars in the 1500s and 1574 00:57:56,789 --> 00:57:53,839 so that is really intriguing that in 1575 00:58:00,470 --> 00:57:56,799 1508 we have this discovery but even 1576 00:58:02,069 --> 00:58:00,480 before that in the 1470s 1577 00:58:03,990 --> 00:58:02,079 as jim said a giant started to be 1578 00:58:06,150 --> 00:58:04,000 paraded around 1579 00:58:08,230 --> 00:58:06,160 salisbury and he was like this pagan 1580 00:58:09,910 --> 00:58:08,240 giant it was always around the time of 1581 00:58:11,829 --> 00:58:09,920 the summer solstice and john the baptist 1582 00:58:14,069 --> 00:58:11,839 day which is a few days after 1583 00:58:15,990 --> 00:58:14,079 and so it was clearly a reference to the 1584 00:58:17,829 --> 00:58:16,000 giants and stonehenge especially as the 1585 00:58:19,829 --> 00:58:17,839 name the original name is the giants 1586 00:58:21,589 --> 00:58:19,839 dance and we always wondered well you 1587 00:58:23,349 --> 00:58:21,599 know what's going on with this 1588 00:58:26,390 --> 00:58:23,359 and they changed the name of the giant 1589 00:58:27,750 --> 00:58:26,400 they paraded around to saint christopher 1590 00:58:29,670 --> 00:58:27,760 now we always question why would they 1591 00:58:31,829 --> 00:58:29,680 change it was just a christian kind of 1592 00:58:32,950 --> 00:58:31,839 shift but actually saint christopher 1593 00:58:35,349 --> 00:58:32,960 himself 1594 00:58:38,230 --> 00:58:35,359 was a canaanite giant who came from the 1595 00:58:39,910 --> 00:58:38,240 bible lands who carried jesus famously 1596 00:58:42,309 --> 00:58:39,920 on his shoulder across a river when 1597 00:58:44,470 --> 00:58:42,319 jesus was a baby and he wanted to like 1598 00:58:46,470 --> 00:58:44,480 serve the greatest king rather than be a 1599 00:58:49,670 --> 00:58:46,480 commander in a canaanite army and he was 1600 00:58:52,230 --> 00:58:49,680 said to be between 12 or 18 feet tall so 1601 00:58:54,390 --> 00:58:52,240 what is a giant from the bible lands a 1602 00:58:56,390 --> 00:58:54,400 canaanite warrior 1603 00:58:58,390 --> 00:58:56,400 have this connection with this giant 1604 00:59:00,710 --> 00:58:58,400 paraded around the nearest town to 1605 00:59:03,589 --> 00:59:00,720 stonehenge then you've got the kangik 1606 00:59:05,829 --> 00:59:03,599 giants and the can is like canaanite 1607 00:59:08,549 --> 00:59:05,839 kangik it's the same principle 1608 00:59:10,150 --> 00:59:08,559 robert gay in his book from 1666 claimed 1609 00:59:11,910 --> 00:59:10,160 that there was a direct connection 1610 00:59:13,910 --> 00:59:11,920 between these names and they followed 1611 00:59:15,829 --> 00:59:13,920 the same principles of the canaanites 1612 00:59:19,030 --> 00:59:15,839 and that the kanjik giants themselves 1613 00:59:21,430 --> 00:59:19,040 were connected with the bible lands and 1614 00:59:23,510 --> 00:59:21,440 so we have all these odd connections and 1615 00:59:26,069 --> 00:59:23,520 then you start i can go on and on here 1616 00:59:27,430 --> 00:59:26,079 but i'll just quickly summarize this but 1617 00:59:30,549 --> 00:59:27,440 you start looking at the measurement 1618 00:59:32,549 --> 00:59:30,559 systems the type of geometry 1619 00:59:35,670 --> 00:59:32,559 the placement in the landscape compared 1620 00:59:37,430 --> 00:59:35,680 to other sites a stonehenge is like it's 1621 00:59:39,750 --> 00:59:37,440 like an international site it's got 1622 00:59:41,829 --> 00:59:39,760 measurements from egypt it's got 1623 00:59:43,829 --> 00:59:41,839 measurements from sumeria it's got 1624 00:59:45,349 --> 00:59:43,839 british measurements it's got other 1625 00:59:46,549 --> 00:59:45,359 measurements from different parts of the 1626 00:59:48,549 --> 00:59:46,559 ancient world 1627 00:59:50,470 --> 00:59:48,559 it's got specific geometries and 1628 00:59:51,990 --> 00:59:50,480 orientations which we find in other 1629 00:59:54,549 --> 00:59:52,000 countries as well 1630 00:59:56,470 --> 00:59:54,559 and so you have to kind of question 1631 00:59:58,470 --> 00:59:56,480 what is going on here is there something 1632 01:00:01,510 --> 00:59:58,480 that's been completely eradicated from 1633 01:00:04,470 --> 01:00:01,520 my history books but was only kept and 1634 01:00:06,630 --> 01:00:04,480 held within these secret societies who 1635 01:00:08,789 --> 01:00:06,640 created this parade of this giant around 1636 01:00:10,870 --> 01:00:08,799 it was their way of remembering and 1637 01:00:13,670 --> 01:00:10,880 maintaining this tradition because it 1638 01:00:16,789 --> 01:00:13,680 was a secret society that this guild of 1639 01:00:19,510 --> 01:00:16,799 tailors who created this giant kind of 1640 01:00:21,430 --> 01:00:19,520 pageant in salisbury so i mean i'm 1641 01:00:23,270 --> 01:00:21,440 trying to summarize maybe too much in 1642 01:00:24,950 --> 01:00:23,280 too short amount of time but there are 1643 01:00:26,789 --> 01:00:24,960 strong connections not just with 1644 01:00:28,390 --> 01:00:26,799 stonehenge we find similar things in 1645 01:00:30,309 --> 01:00:28,400 different parts of the country 1646 01:00:32,630 --> 01:00:30,319 hundreds of years thousands of years of 1647 01:00:34,870 --> 01:00:32,640 these pageants of parading giants around 1648 01:00:37,670 --> 01:00:34,880 we even have it in london with gog magog 1649 01:00:40,230 --> 01:00:37,680 gog and magog are paraded around and the 1650 01:00:41,750 --> 01:00:40,240 lord may have show every year even today 1651 01:00:42,390 --> 01:00:41,760 that's been going on for hundreds of 1652 01:00:44,230 --> 01:00:42,400 years 1653 01:00:46,230 --> 01:00:44,240 so there's just this 1654 01:00:49,190 --> 01:00:46,240 thing that's like almost trapped in our 1655 01:00:51,109 --> 01:00:49,200 consciousness about this founding story 1656 01:00:55,430 --> 01:00:51,119 these creation myths 1657 01:00:59,349 --> 01:00:57,510 yeah a really great summary it's so true 1658 01:01:01,750 --> 01:00:59,359 there's a lot of cultures that still 1659 01:01:03,510 --> 01:01:01,760 parade around some big puppet of a giant 1660 01:01:05,670 --> 01:01:03,520 it's like what's that about but i 1661 01:01:08,549 --> 01:01:05,680 definitely have never heard about jesus 1662 01:01:09,589 --> 01:01:08,559 riding on the shoulders of a giant i've 1663 01:01:11,750 --> 01:01:09,599 heard 1664 01:01:13,910 --> 01:01:11,760 enough biblical stuff for probably five 1665 01:01:15,190 --> 01:01:13,920 lifetimes that's never come up so i like 1666 01:01:17,349 --> 01:01:15,200 it and 1667 01:01:19,910 --> 01:01:17,359 i was in london once and i wanted to see 1668 01:01:21,670 --> 01:01:19,920 stonehenge but my buddy gordon suggested 1669 01:01:23,430 --> 01:01:21,680 that we go to avebury instead because 1670 01:01:24,789 --> 01:01:23,440 there's less tourists maybe it was even 1671 01:01:26,870 --> 01:01:24,799 closer 1672 01:01:29,109 --> 01:01:26,880 it was quite impressive i was a bit 1673 01:01:31,829 --> 01:01:29,119 distracted by trying not to track sheep 1674 01:01:33,829 --> 01:01:31,839 [\h__\h] back into his car but a very 1675 01:01:36,549 --> 01:01:33,839 impressive place and they're really all 1676 01:01:38,549 --> 01:01:36,559 over the british isles and man just 1677 01:01:41,190 --> 01:01:38,559 before i let you go something i like to 1678 01:01:45,109 --> 01:01:41,200 ask guests who are explorers and focus 1679 01:01:48,549 --> 01:01:45,119 on a wide range of ancient mysteries is 1680 01:01:51,750 --> 01:01:48,559 if time money and access weren't an 1681 01:01:54,470 --> 01:01:51,760 issue where would you guys explore to 1682 01:01:56,789 --> 01:01:54,480 try to uncover the biggest lost mystery 1683 01:01:59,190 --> 01:01:56,799 giants or otherwise biggest bang for the 1684 01:02:00,230 --> 01:01:59,200 buck uh whoever wants to go first feel 1685 01:02:02,710 --> 01:02:00,240 free 1686 01:02:04,549 --> 01:02:02,720 i'll jump in first here jim well if this 1687 01:02:07,029 --> 01:02:04,559 money is no object then 1688 01:02:08,870 --> 01:02:07,039 there's a couple of places one of them 1689 01:02:11,910 --> 01:02:08,880 is nam madol 1690 01:02:14,789 --> 01:02:11,920 in micronesia i'd love to get out there 1691 01:02:16,630 --> 01:02:14,799 because we have the amazing megalithic 1692 01:02:18,950 --> 01:02:16,640 temple of madonna made with these bass 1693 01:02:22,230 --> 01:02:18,960 out columns but also there's really 1694 01:02:24,549 --> 01:02:22,240 interesting giant discoveries and myths 1695 01:02:26,230 --> 01:02:24,559 of these like flying shaman giants you 1696 01:02:28,150 --> 01:02:26,240 could levitate stones and things like 1697 01:02:29,829 --> 01:02:28,160 this plus it's beautiful weather and you 1698 01:02:32,150 --> 01:02:29,839 know it's like stunning scenery and 1699 01:02:34,710 --> 01:02:32,160 things like that and also 1700 01:02:37,990 --> 01:02:34,720 on you know the opposite side of like 1701 01:02:40,950 --> 01:02:38,000 the weather spectrum is antarctica and 1702 01:02:43,029 --> 01:02:40,960 patagonia now that area down there is 1703 01:02:44,549 --> 01:02:43,039 absolutely fascinating because i right 1704 01:02:46,950 --> 01:02:44,559 up until recently i've been like i said 1705 01:02:48,470 --> 01:02:46,960 earlier frederick cook in 1901 1706 01:02:51,670 --> 01:02:48,480 we have 1707 01:02:52,710 --> 01:02:51,680 this absolutely mind-blowing accounts of 1708 01:02:54,789 --> 01:02:52,720 direct 1709 01:02:56,470 --> 01:02:54,799 connections meetings with these giants 1710 01:02:58,870 --> 01:02:56,480 but also there's all these sacred sites 1711 01:03:01,109 --> 01:02:58,880 that no one really knows about even on 1712 01:03:02,710 --> 01:03:01,119 antarctica as well and like you know 1713 01:03:04,789 --> 01:03:02,720 there's something to be found down there 1714 01:03:07,109 --> 01:03:04,799 it's not being looked at it's been kind 1715 01:03:09,990 --> 01:03:07,119 of pretty much suppressed in my opinion 1716 01:03:13,190 --> 01:03:10,000 so i'd love to get a trip down there 1717 01:03:16,230 --> 01:03:13,200 yeah that's an easy one for me uh 1718 01:03:17,349 --> 01:03:16,240 excavate under the front of the sphinx 1719 01:03:19,589 --> 01:03:17,359 because 1720 01:03:20,549 --> 01:03:19,599 in order to prove the case 1721 01:03:21,990 --> 01:03:20,559 you need 1722 01:03:24,549 --> 01:03:22,000 evidence 1723 01:03:26,230 --> 01:03:24,559 that can be carbon dated contemporaneous 1724 01:03:27,910 --> 01:03:26,240 artifacts 1725 01:03:29,430 --> 01:03:27,920 records 1726 01:03:31,190 --> 01:03:29,440 you know right now the 1727 01:03:34,950 --> 01:03:31,200 official date of the building of the 1728 01:03:37,589 --> 01:03:34,960 giza complex about 2650 bc 1729 01:03:39,829 --> 01:03:37,599 casey specifically states that 1730 01:03:42,150 --> 01:03:39,839 between 490 and 10 1731 01:03:44,549 --> 01:03:42,160 390 bc 1732 01:03:47,190 --> 01:03:44,559 was the actual construction date over 1733 01:03:49,190 --> 01:03:47,200 100 year period of the great pyramid and 1734 01:03:51,510 --> 01:03:49,200 rata and hermes 1735 01:03:54,069 --> 01:03:51,520 both are the architects and builders of 1736 01:03:56,309 --> 01:03:54,079 it and in order to prove that case and 1737 01:03:58,549 --> 01:03:56,319 it's just not the casey material 1738 01:03:59,589 --> 01:03:58,559 i believe that the assyrian 1739 01:04:02,549 --> 01:03:59,599 and the 1740 01:04:04,069 --> 01:04:02,559 sphinx temple are much older because i i 1741 01:04:05,270 --> 01:04:04,079 have engineering experience i'm a 1742 01:04:08,150 --> 01:04:05,280 stonemason 1743 01:04:10,390 --> 01:04:08,160 there are two different construction 1744 01:04:12,870 --> 01:04:10,400 techniques at work in egypt just like 1745 01:04:15,510 --> 01:04:12,880 you find in the inca world 1746 01:04:17,670 --> 01:04:15,520 and in pumapunku in cusco and other 1747 01:04:18,710 --> 01:04:17,680 places so i would say in order to prove 1748 01:04:19,910 --> 01:04:18,720 the case 1749 01:04:23,270 --> 01:04:19,920 you have to 1750 01:04:24,710 --> 01:04:23,280 excavate and find if there is a lost 1751 01:04:26,549 --> 01:04:24,720 hall of records 1752 01:04:27,510 --> 01:04:26,559 under the sphinx in the giza plateau 1753 01:04:29,670 --> 01:04:27,520 also 1754 01:04:31,750 --> 01:04:29,680 about three quarters up in the great 1755 01:04:34,630 --> 01:04:31,760 pyramid japanese scientists with muon 1756 01:04:36,549 --> 01:04:34,640 technology have found a void that's like 1757 01:04:39,510 --> 01:04:36,559 30 meters wide 1758 01:04:41,430 --> 01:04:39,520 and that i would like to 1759 01:04:42,710 --> 01:04:41,440 investigate as well or see scientists 1760 01:04:44,710 --> 01:04:42,720 investigate 1761 01:04:46,390 --> 01:04:44,720 and we'll see how it goes i really you 1762 01:04:47,829 --> 01:04:46,400 know i'd love to do a show 1763 01:04:50,549 --> 01:04:47,839 search for the last hall of records i 1764 01:04:53,029 --> 01:04:50,559 think people would love that idea 1765 01:04:55,029 --> 01:04:53,039 any time they did specials in egypt was 1766 01:04:57,910 --> 01:04:55,039 awas or whatever you know they get huge 1767 01:05:00,390 --> 01:04:57,920 ratings and i understand the reluctance 1768 01:05:03,109 --> 01:05:00,400 of egyptologists especially egyptians 1769 01:05:05,349 --> 01:05:03,119 themselves because they view these ideas 1770 01:05:07,270 --> 01:05:05,359 you know through a nationalistic lens 1771 01:05:10,069 --> 01:05:07,280 where the interlopers are trying to 1772 01:05:12,470 --> 01:05:10,079 steal our history and all that but to me 1773 01:05:15,029 --> 01:05:12,480 this isn't a racist argument 1774 01:05:17,029 --> 01:05:15,039 basically as we told you the gods and 1775 01:05:19,510 --> 01:05:17,039 the giants and the shining ones are 1776 01:05:21,589 --> 01:05:19,520 associated with tuatha data and with new 1777 01:05:23,750 --> 01:05:21,599 grange and other sites 1778 01:05:26,630 --> 01:05:23,760 just like they're attached to 1779 01:05:29,029 --> 01:05:26,640 pumapunku or teotihuacan or these other 1780 01:05:30,390 --> 01:05:29,039 sites around the world so it's not like 1781 01:05:32,390 --> 01:05:30,400 an ancient 1782 01:05:34,230 --> 01:05:32,400 or it's not a racist argument it says 1783 01:05:36,630 --> 01:05:34,240 who are the gods that showed up in 1784 01:05:38,549 --> 01:05:36,640 antiquity so long story short i think 1785 01:05:41,349 --> 01:05:38,559 that's where the rubber meets the road 1786 01:05:43,430 --> 01:05:41,359 is to find evidence of further antiquity 1787 01:05:47,270 --> 01:05:43,440 on the giza plateau 1788 01:05:49,670 --> 01:05:47,280 yes both really great answers nan madol 1789 01:05:51,910 --> 01:05:49,680 is quite intriguing with the curse and 1790 01:05:54,150 --> 01:05:51,920 everything and jim i figured you were 1791 01:05:54,950 --> 01:05:54,160 gonna say the paw of the sphinx and i 1792 01:05:56,470 --> 01:05:54,960 guess 1793 01:05:58,150 --> 01:05:56,480 i would think that it's probably been 1794 01:05:59,990 --> 01:05:58,160 explored in secret but we're never gonna 1795 01:06:02,230 --> 01:06:00,000 know about it it's such a specific 1796 01:06:05,029 --> 01:06:02,240 location how could they not have gotten 1797 01:06:08,230 --> 01:06:05,039 in there but regardless it's definitely 1798 01:06:10,710 --> 01:06:08,240 an intriguing mystery and 1799 01:06:13,109 --> 01:06:10,720 man this has just been so much fun 1800 01:06:15,109 --> 01:06:13,119 talk to the people about the other 1801 01:06:17,109 --> 01:06:15,119 things you have going on in terms of 1802 01:06:19,349 --> 01:06:17,119 following up on your work the shows 1803 01:06:21,510 --> 01:06:19,359 you're involved with upcoming projects 1804 01:06:23,430 --> 01:06:21,520 links because i'm sure people are going 1805 01:06:25,589 --> 01:06:23,440 to want to follow up in some regard and 1806 01:06:27,430 --> 01:06:25,599 your work ethic certainly puts mine to 1807 01:06:28,870 --> 01:06:27,440 shame but what are you going to do uh 1808 01:06:30,549 --> 01:06:28,880 tell people about that follow-up 1809 01:06:32,549 --> 01:06:30,559 material 1810 01:06:34,150 --> 01:06:32,559 sure in the pipeline 1811 01:06:36,630 --> 01:06:34,160 me and jim are going to be eventually be 1812 01:06:38,150 --> 01:06:36,640 doing a worldwide book we've got so much 1813 01:06:40,630 --> 01:06:38,160 cracking data 1814 01:06:42,630 --> 01:06:40,640 it's quite remarkable and 1815 01:06:45,270 --> 01:06:42,640 personally i've got my big conference in 1816 01:06:47,430 --> 01:06:45,280 glastonbury on the 7th and 8th of may 1817 01:06:49,670 --> 01:06:47,440 we run megalithomania my company we run 1818 01:06:51,510 --> 01:06:49,680 a bunch of tours we're going out to like 1819 01:06:53,029 --> 01:06:51,520 we do a tour around stonehenge in 1820 01:06:55,990 --> 01:06:53,039 england in july 1821 01:06:58,309 --> 01:06:56,000 orkney august we've done a

01:08:30,470 --> 01:08:28,080 it's kind of like there's such a 1864 01:08:33,030 --> 01:08:30,480 burgeoning population on earth of 1865 01:08:35,590 --> 01:08:33,040 spiritual but not religious people now 1866 01:08:38,630 --> 01:08:35,600 that don't subscribe to any dogmatic 1867 01:08:40,229 --> 01:08:38,640 ideas and it's kind of like the in my 1868 01:08:42,470 --> 01:08:40,239 effort i study with the spiritual 1869 01:08:44,309 --> 01:08:42,480 teacher for like 25 years and transcribe 1870 01:08:45,990 --> 01:08:44,319 all the sessions with my brother and 1871 01:08:46,789 -->

01:08:55,590 --> 01:08:53,279 through meditation or 1876 01:08:57,189 --> 01:08:55,600 undoing of misperceptions 1877 01:08:58,789 --> 01:08:57,199 i just like to share ideas from 1878 01:09:01,189 --> 01:08:58,799 spiritual masters that help people in 1879 01:09:03,269 --> 01:09:01,199 their day-to-day lives to help them find 1880 01:09:05,030 --> 01:09:03,279 peace and to deal with mental

we 1926 01:10:49,830 --> 01:10:48,560 got a lot of interesting tangents along 1927 01:10:52,149 --> 01:10:49,840 the way 1928 01:10:55,110 --> 01:10:52,159 who knows where the line between ancient 1929 01:10:56,390 --> 01:10:55,120 akashic memory and myth should be drawn 1930 01:10:58,470 --> 01:10:56,400 if anywhere 1931 01:11:01,590 --> 01:10:58,480 but the evidence is in there are too 1932 01:11:03,510 --> 01:11:01,600 many giant stories to write off 1933 01:11:05,350 --> 01:11:03,520 i think anyone who's familiar with all 1934 01:11:07,430 --> 01:11:05,360 the shows in the archive would already 1935 01:11:09,350 --> 01:11:07,440 say that about america but now we got 1936 01:11:12,390 --> 01:11:09,360 them on the other side of the pond and 1937 01:11:14,950 --> 01:11:12,400 it just goes to strengthen the case and 1938 01:11:17,750 --> 01:11:14,960 probably my favorite part was weather 1939 01:11:19,430 --> 01:11:17,760 effects tied to these stone circles and 1940 01:11:22,870 --> 01:11:19,440 tombs 1941 01:11:25,030 --> 01:11:22,880 also the idea that ufos and paranormal 1942 01:11:27,270 --> 01:11:25,040 encounters and orbs are all direct 1943 01:11:29,350 --> 01:11:27,280 results of these old shamanic portal 1944 01:11:32,070 --> 01:11:29,360 places that's something that's gaining 1945 01:11:33,910 --> 01:11:32,080 more and more steam and i'm into it 1946 01:11:35,590 --> 01:11:33,920 i just finished gordon's new book 1947 01:11:37,750 --> 01:11:35,600 animistic which will be the next thing 1948 01:11:39,189 --> 01:11:37,760 we talk about here and it hits on that 1949 01:11:41,350 --> 01:11:39,199 theme too 1950 01:11:42,950 --> 01:11:41,360 dr greg little himself has a new book 1951 01:11:44,310 --> 01:11:42,960 coming out this summer hopefully one 1952 01:11:46,229 --> 01:11:44,320 we're going to talk about that looks 1953 01:11:47,669 --> 01:11:46,239 like it's also going to be adding to 1954 01:11:50,470 --> 01:11:47,679 that stack 1955 01:11:51,590 --> 01:11:50,480 but i like these megalomaniacs quite a 1956 01:11:53,430 --> 01:11:51,600 bit 1957 01:11:55,990 --> 01:11:53,440 i'm glad they had a lot of fun 1958 01:11:57,510 --> 01:11:56,000 underground and cave stories in the book 1959 01:11:59,110 --> 01:11:57,520 that we could pull out 1960 01:12:01,189 --> 01:11:59,120 and i hope we're able to make it happen 1961 01:12:03,430 --> 01:12:01,199 again down the line they both have a lot 1962 01:12:05,350 --> 01:12:03,440 of overlapping interest with the things 1963 01:12:07,590 --> 01:12:05,360 that we like around here 1964 01:12:09,189 --> 01:12:07,600 i think i have one from my notes that we 1965 01:12:10,630 --> 01:12:09,199 didn't mention 1966 01:12:12,790 --> 01:12:10,640 although i think 1967 01:12:14,630 --> 01:12:12,800 they did mention the term scrapbook but 1968 01:12:16,630 --> 01:12:14,640 we didn't get into it unless there are 1969 01:12:21,110 --> 01:12:16,640 others i think this is a reference to 1970 01:12:23,910 --> 01:12:21,120 the third manx scrap book by w.w gill a 1971 01:12:26,709 --> 01:12:23,920 private publication from 1938 that 1972 01:12:28,390 --> 01:12:26,719 didn't come to light until 1963 1973 01:12:30,790 --> 01:12:28,400 and listen to this 1974 01:12:33,990 --> 01:12:30,800 they say it references the 1975 01:12:36,470 --> 01:12:34,000 fennodiri a hairy supernatural creature 1976 01:12:39,110 --> 01:12:36,480 that is said to be a large elemental 1977 01:12:40,870 --> 01:12:39,120 being sounds a lot like what some people 1978 01:12:43,350 --> 01:12:40,880 think bigfoot is 1979 01:12:45,510 --> 01:12:43,360 but also in the scrapbook is this 1980 01:12:47,270 --> 01:12:45,520 account that originally came from a book 1981 01:12:48,950 --> 01:12:47,280 called the undersea giants i'm gonna 1982 01:12:51,110 --> 01:12:48,960 have to check that out 1983 01:12:54,390 --> 01:12:51,120 and it gives a story about a miner from 1984 01:12:56,310 --> 01:12:54,400 laxie who got lost in mining tunnels 1985 01:12:58,630 --> 01:12:56,320 while trying to find his way out he came 1986 01:13:01,110 --> 01:12:58,640 to a great room hollowed in the rock 1987 01:13:02,229 --> 01:13:01,120 with tables and chairs in it all of 1988 01:13:04,390 --> 01:13:02,239 stone 1989 01:13:06,550 --> 01:13:04,400 the light in the room was yellowish and 1990 01:13:09,510 --> 01:13:06,560 seemed to come from above 1991 01:13:11,350 --> 01:13:09,520 six great powerful men in queer rough 1992 01:13:12,310 --> 01:13:11,360 clothes were sitting there and staring 1993 01:13:15,110 --> 01:13:12,320 at him 1994 01:13:16,950 --> 01:13:15,120 he asked them in manx to direct him to 1995 01:13:18,470 --> 01:13:16,960 the upper world they spoke amongst 1996 01:13:19,669 --> 01:13:18,480 themselves in a language he could not 1997 01:13:21,510 --> 01:13:19,679 understand 1998 01:13:23,910 --> 01:13:21,520 and then one turned to him and told him 1999 01:13:26,149 --> 01:13:23,920 that he was under lexi bay 2000 01:13:28,310 --> 01:13:26,159 quote this is the castle of the giants 2001 01:13:29,990 --> 01:13:28,320 that used to be living in laxy and you 2002 01:13:31,350 --> 01:13:30,000 were the first man that ever found his 2003 01:13:33,030 --> 01:13:31,360 way down here 2004 01:13:35,270 --> 01:13:33,040 they said they were just putting in the 2005 01:13:37,030 --> 01:13:35,280 time until the island would be fit for 2006 01:13:39,669 --> 01:13:37,040 heroes to live again and they had been 2007 01:13:41,669 --> 01:13:39,679 waiting there hundreds of years 2008 01:13:43,430 --> 01:13:41,679 then one of them gave him a knock on the 2009 01:13:46,070 --> 01:13:43,440 head and he didn't know anything until 2010 01:13:48,390 --> 01:13:46,080 he found himself outside the big door he 2011 01:13:50,709 --> 01:13:48,400 tried again to find the area he had seen 2012 01:13:52,790 --> 01:13:50,719 these giants but failed 2013 01:13:54,630 --> 01:13:52,800 well i like it another story that kind 2014 01:13:57,910 --> 01:13:54,640 of sounds like 2015 01:13:59,830 --> 01:13:57,920 fallen angels or watchers kind of stuck 2016 01:14:01,990 --> 01:13:59,840 in the earth waiting for a time when 2017 01:14:03,750 --> 01:14:02,000 they can re-emerge 2018 01:14:06,390 --> 01:14:03,760 another common theme we hear with these 2019 01:14:08,310 --> 01:14:06,400 kinds of stories is that a person cannot 2020 01:14:10,470 --> 01:14:08,320 find the place again speaking to a 2021 01:14:12,790 --> 01:14:10,480 metaphysical quality 2022 01:14:14,630 --> 01:14:12,800 good stuff i checked my outline for 2023 01:14:17,110 --> 01:14:14,640 other things that i didn't bring up 2024 01:14:18,310 --> 01:14:17,120 because this was just

01:14:38,390 --> 01:14:35,920 they write a strange story about the 2035 01:14:41,030 --> 01:14:38,400 origins of the cornish giants discussed 2036 01:14:42,950 --> 01:14:41,040 a race of inferior people who went about 2037 01:14:43,910 --> 01:14:42,960 on all fours and spoke in a strange 2038 01:14:45,910 --> 01:14:43,920 tongue 2039 01:14:48,149 --> 01:14:45,920 these were called the lizard

the lizard people 2043 01:14:56,870 --> 01:14:54,159 gradually interbreeding with them over 2044 01:14:59,110 --> 01:14:56,880 the generations their offspring became 2045 01:15:02,229 --> 01:14:59,120 renowned in the area being very tall 2046 01:15:04,310 --> 01:15:02,239 intelligent and superior in many ways 2047 01:15:06,950 --> 01:15:04,320 it is said that in this area of cornwall 2048 01:15:09,030 --> 01:15:06,960 local residents still often reach over 2049 01:15:11,189 --> 01:15:09,040 six feet tall 2050 01:15:14,390 --> 01:15:11,199 well that's a hell of a story again the 2051 01:15:17,430 --> 01:15:14,400 theme of watchers fallen angels giants 2052 01:15:19,189 --> 01:15:17,440 breeding with people in this case some 2053 01:15:21,510 --> 01:15:19,199 kind of primitive 2054 01:15:23,270 --> 01:15:21,520 lizard person 2055 01:15:25,750 --> 01:15:23,280 i don't know the world is a weird place 2056 01:15:27,750 --> 01:15:25,760 but i do love hearing about it 2057

interview 2060 01:15:34,790 --> 01:15:33,199 and i'm anxious to read their book about 2061 01:15:37,270 --> 01:15:34,800 north american giants because i'm sure 2062 01:15:39,110 --> 01:15:37,280 it's just as dense 2063 01:15:41,270 --> 01:15:39,120 so good show today of course if you 2064 01:15:43,590 --> 01:15:41,280 liked the free first hour you're missing 2065 01:15:45,430 --> 01:15:43,600 half

to 2071 01:15:59,350 --> 01:15:57,280 the stack we got into several other 2072 01:16:02,229 --> 01:15:59,360 tales of giants living underground and 2073 01:16:04,550 --> 01:16:02,239 in caves astrological alignments the 2074 01:16:06,950 --> 01:16:04,560 origins of the giants metaphysical 2075 01:16:09,189 --> 01:16:06,960 secrets of the ancients 2076 01:16:11,590 --> 01:16:09,199 my

--> 01:16:14,239 came from 2080 01:16:20,390 --> 01:16:17,040 the giants cave in eden hall 2081 01:16:23,590 --> 01:16:20,400 the catalina giants and land missing 2082 01:16:25,990 --> 01:16:23,600

01:16:31,110 --> 01:16:29,760 get into and 2086 01:16:32,790 --> 01:16:31,120 they touch on it 2087 01:16:34,790 --> 01:16:32,800 solid stuff and don't forget the 2088 01:16:37,350 --> 01:16:34,800 standard seven day free trial that we 2089 01:16:38,310 --> 01:16:37,360 got going on now so hop on in and check 2090 01:16:40,390 --> 01:16:38,320 it out 2091 01:16:42,149 --> 01:16:40,400 in higher

01:17:10,070 --> 01:17:07,440 i guess i would say that i could use a 2104 01:17:11,990 --> 01:17:10,080 few more forum moderators we just need a 2105 01:17:14,390 --> 01:17:12,000 small team of people

people if you have 2235 01:23:57,430 --> 01:23:54,800 your own business and produce something 2236 01:23:59,430 --> 01:23:57,440 nice that my wife or kid or taste buds 2237 01:24:01,430 --> 01:23:59,440 might like but the architects of 2238 01:24:03,189 --> 01:24:01,440 consensus reality have made it clear 2239 01:24:05,590 --> 01:24:03,199 that these themes and topics aren't 2240 01:24:07,750 --> 01:24:05,600 really welcome on the main stage and so 2241 01:24:09,750 --> 01:24:07,760 this is how we secure a little counter 2242 01:24:11,990 --> 01:24:09,760 culture corner for ourselves and i hope 2243 01:24:13,590 --> 01:24:12,000 you'll join plus because that is the 2244 01:24:16,070 --> 01:24:13,600 only way it works 2245 01:24:18,470 --> 01:24:16,080 besides you can cancel anytime right on 2246 01:24:20,550 --> 01:24:18,480 your profile page the most common 2247 01:24:23,030 --> 01:24:20,560 concern i hear is people just being 2248 01:24:25,430 --> 01:24:23,040 unsure if thc plus will work with their 2249 01:24:28,229 --> 01:24:25,440 podcast app and the answer is probably 2250 01:24:30,310 --> 01:24:28,239 yes but if not we have several high 2251 01:24:32,390 --> 01:24:30,320 level app recommendations for whatever 2252 01:24:33,750 --> 01:24:32,400 phone you use and the website is made 2253 01:24:35,430 --> 01:24:33,760 for mobile too 2254 01:24:37,110 --> 01:24:35,440 we're trained to tip a waitress for 2255 01:24:38,950 --> 01:24:37,120 bringing us a sandwich but that tip 2256 01:24:41,510 --> 01:24:38,960 doesn't give you access to a second 2257 01:24:43,110 --> 01:24:41,520 sandwich really i'm not asking for any 2258 01:24:45,030 --> 01:24:43,120 more than that and i think i offer a 2259 01:24:47,350 --> 01:24:45,040 better service come get your second 2260 01:24:49,350 --> 01:24:47,360 serving of tasty conspiracy goodness in 2261 01:24:51,990 --> 01:24:49,360 exchange for that small token of your 2262 01:24:53,910 --> 01:24:52,000 appreciation beyond that let it also be 2263 01:24:56,310 --> 01:24:53,920 known that we have grown and survived as 2264 01:24:58,310 --> 01:24:56,320 long as we have by word of mouth 2265 01:25:00,470 --> 01:24:58,320 i don't care so much about social media 2266 01:25:02,390 --> 01:25:00,480 likes or follows but tell the right 2267 01:25:04,149 --> 01:25:02,400 people about thc

than most other hosts 2271 01:25:12,310 --> 01:25:10,320 and if you can help me with any of these 2272 01:25:14,390 --> 01:25:12,320 things i can work to bring you better 2273 01:25:15,270 -->
