WWII Allied Air Force planes were buzzed by balls of light that some think could have been extraterrestrial. And the alleged crash of a flying saucer in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947 propelled the world into the age of UFOs.

Documentary based on the book by Erich Von Daniken concerning the ancient mysteries of the world, such as the pyramids of Egypt and Mexico, ancient cave drawings, the monuments of Easter Island, etc. and the fact that these things and modern civilization could have been influenced by extra-terrestrial visitations hundreds(or perhaps thousands) of years ago.
Göbekli Tepe is regarded as an archaeological discovery of the greatest importance since it could profoundly change our understanding of a crucial stage in the development of human societies. It seems that the erection of monumental complexes was within the capacities of hunter-gatherers and not only of sedentary farming communities as had been previously thought. In other words, as excavator Klaus Schmidt puts it: "First came the temple, then the city."[26] This revolutionary hypothesis wil... Continue reading ...
The Bosnian Pyramid, Visocica Hill, is the first European pyramid to be discovered and is located in the heart of Bosnia, in the town of Visoko. The pyramid has all the elements: four perfectly shaped slopes pointing toward the cardinal points, a flat top and an entrance complex. On top of the pyramid are also the ruins of a Medieval walled town, once the base of a Bosnian king Tvrtko of Kotromanic (1338-1391). Because of its similarities to the Pyramid of the Sun in Teotihuacan, Mexico, it h... Continue reading ...

The Lost Gospels, presented by Anglican priest Pete Owen Jones, is a fascinating exploration into the huge number of ancient Christian texts that didn't make it into the New Testament. Shocking and challenging, these were works in that presented a Jesus who didn't die, who took revenge on his enemies and who kissed Mary Magdalene on the mouth. This Jesus is unrecognizable from that found in the traditional books of the New Testament.
Pete travels through Egypt and the former Roman Empire loo... Continue reading ...

This video is not esoteric or unusual but a damn good story!! I include it for that reason alone as it shows what a person is capable of doing under extreme odds of survival.

"In the mid-80′s two young climbers attempted to reach the summit of Siula Grande in Peru; a feat that had previously been attempted but never achieved. With an extra man lookin... Continue reading ...
This is the Documentary shook up Egyptian Archaeology when it was broadcast. Introduces the discovery by John Anthony West and Robert Schoch that the Great Sphinx of Giza might be thousands of years older than its assumed date of 2500 BC.
Overall not a bad documentary altho it does take a bit of a left turn when trying to link the Sphinx to stuff on Mars. Also one premise presented, that the head may have been re-carved is tantalizing. Some other questions they try to answer: How were the hu... Continue reading ...

I have to admit, there are some unusual ideas bandied about in our big world. Ideas and theories that make you think "I can see THAT" or "WHOA, what are you smoking?"

Below you will find some of the more "thought provoking" videos I have watched for entertainment.
