Imagine that this show just keeps running for hundreds of years. Then thousands of years. Empires rise and fall, languages mutate, merge, split, and die. Episode 17,846 suggests that a mysterious broadcast called “ancient aliens” from the early 21st century American Republic is far too unorthodox and ahead of its time to have been created by mere humans. Cue narrator voice: *Is it possible that this program’s bold claims were inspired by an extraterrestrial insight?*
Love how season 1 is all fine and dandy, just theories and speculation. Then in season 2 they say that King Arthur pulled an high tech alien weapon from a large stone with the help of an alien in a lake.
@@andreamunoz6088 This one is extra wacky since all the important victories in the Revolution were fought conventionally. Steuben teaching euro tactics is the reason the Continentals could actually fight.
I remember my school showing episodes of this show to teach us to be critical of sources when researching since it showed that people can explain pure nonsense enough to sound convincing to some
Ancient Aliens is one of those shows that get progressively more insane with each episode, while being really repetitive and retreading the same material over and over again
Also the implied racism that all civilizations that weren’t European all their works and inventions weren’t created by them, but by a “superior being”.

"The aliens did everything" apparently except getting rid of the people that are doing 'Ancient Aliens' to shut them up about telling all their secrets.
I know this comment was a joke, but this is what really bugs me about a lot of conspiracy theories. "The only people who know the truth are me and those who watch this web series/follow this website that knows exactly what's going on! The people who caused [Insert Conspiracy Theory] just want you to think it actually happened because you're dumb!" If they had the power to cause said thing to happen, wouldn't they also have the power to just take down whatever it is that you found out this information from and thus keep people from finding out the truth? Like, I see so many people showing random-ass websites as "proof" of outlandish claims for things done by world governments or the Illuminati or some shit, and yet they don't stop and think that these governments/groups definitely would have the power to just remove those sites or bury that information or even just have these dudes taken out so random people can't find out "the truth" about what they're doing.
The best way to make someone not believe something is to make it a joke. Only people with open minds give any of this a second thought no need to shut them up.

What I like to picture ancient humans interactions with aliens be like. Humans: build pyramids Aliens: see pyramids and lands on earth Aliens to humans: “ you guys built those structures “ Humans: “ yes we did. With our barehands “ Aliens: “ that is impressive.” Humans: “ thanks “ Aliens: leave earth The end
i prefer the Futurama version where they aliens meet the Egyptians and develop their culture from them. They even built their spaceships to be like pyramids. "we Traveled to earth and learned my things from the Egyptians"
"King Arthur, who was a real, human being, not only was able to pull the sword from the stone because of alien biometric technology..." has got to be one of the funniest lines I've heard in a minute.
Ok so, why were men, bigger and stronger than Authur, wasn't able to pull the sword from the stone? It doesn't have to be true but it's a decent explanation.. this place was way more advanced than the given authority, leads us to believe.
I HATE it when people say that someone from ancient times was dumber than us modern people. They just had a lower level of Tech to work with. And they were very smart using that Tech.
I mean on average they definitely were. Diseases and malnutrition were probably knocking a ton off of the average IQ. Look up the Flynn effect. IQs have increased substantially in just the last 100 years.
“They we’re so dumb with how they invented the original technology that over centuries of improvement lead to what we have today.” Yeah I agree, I never really got that idea either.

Was Ubisoft actually contacted by higher dimensional extraterrestrials that commanded them to write down their teachings, in the form of a video game, to spread their message? No.
The Bigfoot episode is the best for their mental gymnastics. At various points they say bigfoot is [somehow at the same time]: -An Alien spy, waiting for humans to leave so bigfoot can inherit the earth -an alien fugitive or criminal, like the Earth is some form of prison colony -the creature aliens hybridised with to make humans -a hyprid of human and alien.
I still vividly remember watching an episode where they speculated that Steve Jobs was given a telepathic message from aliens guiding him to the creation of Apple.
Gotta love these theories that demonstrate how absolutely no effort went into researching history for their creation, because all Jobs ever really did was have engineers improve on existing ideas. It's not like he was actually engineering anything himself, not even the original Apple computers. That was his friend, not him.
Dude theres one episode where a pyramid has an impossibly perfectly fit grave inside that apparently had no way for humans to put it in and like.... I got a physics degree, yet I still think about it to this day.
@@hobihope2981 It’s things like that they have people stomped, but tbh we have to remember it wasn’t regular people building these structures. It was highly trained engineers of that time period. Ofc the average Egyptian wouldn’t know how to design that, that’s like saying the average American knows the logistics of space travel.
A dangerous drinking game for this show is taking a shot every time the narrator asks some random question followed up by “according to ancient astronaut theorist, the answer is yes”. You’d be in the hospital by two episodes.
I love how they taught us how to build stone structures instead of how to harness the power of electricity. It only took, like 100 years to get from steampower to computer circuits, so they could have easily have done it.
But why would they? Does your country willingly teach third world countries how to use high technology? If not, why? If so, does your country teach these tribes EVERY science, or just the subjects they think the populace can handle?
@@badreality2 Most first world countries are busy enriching their own people, or struggling and failing to. In this fictional reality, the aliens created humans as a subservient species, so what harm would there be in granting them some minor innovations.
@@alishermukhametkali9230 funny that to the Imperium there were Aliens in their Ancient past..... Though its in 20,000 AD which is very very Old for 40,000 AD
In an alternate universe, everything in this show actually happened, and our world's real-life history is the conspiracies of anti-alien conspiracy theorists, with a show on History Channel called, "Ancient Humans".
In an even more slightly different universe ancient humanity actually did accomplish all they were said to have, but the ancient aliens theory is commonly believed to be what happened.
Silly conspiracy nut, stop trying to add humans into the history of development given to us by our alien overlords. ALL HAIL LORD XENU, GIVER OF THEATANS!!!
Can we just salute this great soldier for watching all 200 episodes and then summarizing it all so that no one else must endure the same suffering he went through. This man has my utmost respect.
And in the end, all there is to say about the show is unironically "aliens did everything," just like the memes. What a waste of time that must have been...
Ancient Aliens: Talks about religions being actually created by Aliens. Also Ancient Aliens: Ignores the implications of rebellion against and death of the Gods in the Titanomachia, Gigantomachia, Ragnarok, Apophis devouring the sun, Gilgamesh and Enkidu, and etc etc.
@The Fabulous Eagle this, there were skills a mere 50 years ago that are now lost to our knowledge. Whose to says the sands of time haven’t distorted the history we know and buried some of it. God forbid we aren’t the smartest we’ve ever been
They will probably make an episode in the future about the death of the gods actually being a human rebellion against their alien masters where they killed the aliens on Earth and that's why aliens hide from us now or something. "Did humans KILL their alien rulers in ancient Babylon??" :P
I’d never thought that a show could be insulting to the human race but here we are. Ancient Aliens is 16 seasons of saying “humans are dumb, aliens did everything.”
Plot twist: it was made by the actual aliens to breed the ground for alien supremacist on Earth waiting for the day the aliens would reveal themselves.
Its pretty akin to the idea that all evil is human born and god just tries to save us from ourselves by vaguely teaching us parental like lessons with the use of capital punishment and reward tactics.
The weirdest part to me is that this theory is so complicated and crazy that I seriously can’t figure out what’s E.T. and Yoda’s end game here. What do they gain from helping Nazi’s but still letting them lose the war? The only way this theory makes sense is if you go with the idea that our world/universe is a civ game with more mods than a broken Bethesda game.
I sometimes suspect that the ancient aliens idea is related to the ancient "Aryans" idea - I don't refer to the actual Aryans who once invaded Persia and India but to the alleged superhumans who supposedly founded Atlantis and, after Atlantis vanished, spread into rather primitive civilizations and made them great. A favourite "theory" of Heinrich Himmler.
I love how in one episode they tried to claim that George Washington actually meet aliens when he meet with the Native American tribes. Because gasp he actually learned useful information form these tribes
@@Christopher_TG kinda. It's not like they do say that the Europeans weren't influenced by aliens when they made their great achievements. I recall the show said Socrates was influenced by aliens or was an alien when he made Philosophy.

But if I had to give a benefit of the doubt it could be because most great achievements that happened in Africa where when humanity was Very young.

The idea that nonwhite civilizations like the Egyptians, Maya, Ghana, Mali, Ethiopia, and the Mesopotamians could have built incredible wonders of ancient engineering is so unfathomable to white Europeans/Americans that it must've been some kind of supernatural intervention. It's just so blatant.
@@Christopher_TG i mean why would they claim et build the stonehenge or helped the nazis ? They would have just said Euros were smarter than Egyptians and the nazis were the best then ?
That explains a lot. Either the aliens wants to teach us that they’re real, or they want to keep us dumb by planting the seed on the idea that we couldn’t do anything on our own.
I actually met one of these people at the Nasca lines in Peru when I was backpacking through South America in 2009. He was really exited to tell us about all of his publications on ancient aliens. We had fun hearing what he had to say and then laughing when he was out of ear shot. We saw him again in an Inca museum a few days later, where he was filming a "documentary". We had just recieved a guided tour where we learned how the ancient Incas tied planks of wood to infants' heads to give them that particular head shape. It was really quite interesting. Then we saw the ancient aliens guy filming his documentary, talking about how the special head shapes might be evidence that the Incas interbred with aliens, and that they had "better psycic abilities". Whatever the hell that means. So we have two competing explanations: planks of wood or interbreeding with space aliens. I know whch one I find more likely.
Science defines the limitations for being the same species their inability to breed, so if they could breed their not aliens their the same species lol. This makes about as much sense as flat earthers or nasa faked the moon landing
@@levitschetter5288 Actually, that's not entirely true. Biology is actually really hard to define, clear-cut and species are in some ways an arbitrary classification. Reproduction is a big indicator, but it's not a certainty or a perfect method to define a species. It's this variation and arbitrary-ness that causes taxons to be constantly shifted around as more information is obtained.
I think we're just a couple episodes away from "Could it be possible that the advent of the Iraq war was influenced by an extraterrestrial presence? Ancient astronaut theorists say yes"
Pretty sure one of their episodes talks about Iraq war happening because Americans discovered that there's Nebuchadnezzar's Stargate there, and they learned about it from aliens, because the aliens need humans to recover it. Or something.
“Sarajevo 1914: Archduke Franz Ferdinand heir to the Austro-Hungarian Emperor was assassinated alongside his wife Archduchess Sophie, igniting the powder keg that was the many alliances drawing the entire globe into war. Was the assassin an extraterrestrial agent hellbent on the destruction of mankind? Ancient alien theorists say…. “why the fuck not? It’s as good as any other bullshit theory we promote on this piece of garbage tv show that the History Channel should be embarrassed for broadcasting!”
Yeah, they actually have an episode about the hot spots around the world and apparently aliens use their tech to make people there extremely violent so they would destroy all evidence of them being here or something lmao.
I can imagine a remake of this show in 200 years claiming people in 2020 wore masks because they worshipped some kind of aliens with astronaut helmets. And interpreting coronavirus graphic depictions as a spikey spaceship
I do agree that ancient aliens is a religion . I also agree that some of their theorys are a bit far fetched . However, I also believe that they get it right in some instances . I think that no matter what Jesus would have been an alien as he is a spiritual being and not of this world. Anything not of this world would be alien. Artificial insemination would be one way of describing immaculate conception . The powers needed to separate the red Sea could have been superior technology and anything that was done that early man didn't understand, including aliens with super powers , or space ships , or whatever , would seem miraculous and certainly they would have been considered God's. I also think that there is evidence in support of those claims. For example, if it wasn't a space ship that was painted in some of our old masterpieces than what was it? And there's the old sculptures that show astronauts in space suits. Why would they even exist unless they were made by people who saw them. I think that their theorys are just as good as any other theory and they make sense to me. They made me more of a believer than a non believer . I don't think that evolution got it right.
My theory on masks is that there were pandemics even back then and the face coverings were for the spreading of disease and not for religious reasons. Crazy ? Maybe, but the Bible does speak of diseases that wiped out civilizations. Just a thought
If they’re after gold, why go to a planet that arguably has very little of it compared to something as simple to harvest it from as the asteroid belts or uninhabited bodies in our solar system? Let alone ANY other solar system, for that matter.
Exactly! It'd be easier - and FAR faster - to haul some asteroids back to their solar system than make a slave species to mine the Earth. Also, why is it gold specifically? I don't know what elements would go in alien tech, but gold is very unreactive. Unless unreactive elements are valuable for aliens, I don't know why they'd care about gold more than, idk, tellurium.
Have you seen Resident Alien? It doesn't focus on ancient aliens but it likes to use the lore for jokes and their is one episode with some very special guests.

I remember the episode in which, along with saying that he was in contact with aliens/influenced by them and that's where all his inventions came from, they said that Nikola Tesla was born in Transylvania. They couldn't even bother to Google to see where he's from. Truly a show deserving to last sixteen seasons.
He did claim himself that he contacted ailens, so despite that oopsie he'd be proud. Sadly he was mentally ill and never got the help he needed... but that's absolutelly beside the point!
These are the same people who thought King Arthur was real and that his sword was an alien weapon with biometrics that he was able to utilise due to being a special alien superman.
@@caiuscosades1791 he’s ethnic Serbian, doesn’t really have to do with his nationality as far as I’m aware. He was born in the Austrian-Hungarian empire. Transylvania is in Romania hence the previous comment of “Hungarians and Romanians arguing about his nationality.” Which it’s kind of funny since if we were going off of the modern nations (since by the time of his birth Transylvania wasn’t part of Romania) he’d probably be considered as Croatian since the region he was born in is part of modern day Croatia. Just to be clear, I’m talking about his nationality when he was born.
I'd like to imagine that in the Ben 10 Universe, ancient aliens is some how a credible show. By the time omniverse ends, there is literally nothing that would stop them from interviewing aliens on the show.
I feel so bad for any legit Historians who've pitched an idea to the History Channel, gotten turned down, and then they watched an episode of Ancient Aliens.
More like bullet dodged. Like getting turned down by a hot lady at a party only to later find out she got arrested for training raccoons to steal her neighbors' teeth so she could make anti-vaccine amulets out of them. The history channel is a joke.
I remember going through 4 phases with Ancient Aliens: Phase 1 - Hey this looks kind of interesting, some of their points actually make sense. Phase 2 - Oh this is hilarious. They actually believe this crap Phase 3 - Okay, we're starting to get into conspiracy theories tinged with anti-intellectualism... Phase 4 - Huh, some of this echoes the 19th century European explorers trying to explain how the people they're colonizing are inferior and couldn't possibly have built all those amazing palaces, temples, etc. And overall it just tries to undermine actual historians.
Oh, you’re a part of the “everything is rayciss” crowd. They’ve done many episodes where they claimed that Stonehenge, the colossus of Rhodes, the Parthenon, and many Roman architectural feats were done by aliens. Plenty of European accomplishments were attributed to aliens. There’s nothing racist or Eurocentric about the show, they’re just idiots and charlatans. You’re just repeating the latest drivel you read on Twitter and Reddit. Try thinking for yourself once in a while, you might find that you enjoy it.

An idiot dismisses aliens having come to earth in our past, an even bigger idiot believes we have proof they did.

Your comment confuses me, are you implying you have to be religious to be spiritual?
I feel like Ancient Aliens was supposed to be a One Time Gig in the History Channel that ended up being WAY too popular. So they kinda kept the ball rolling, and rolling, and rolling.
It's the same with most of their shows. I'm pretty sure Rick Harrison never intended for Pawn Stars to have 13+ seasons, but hey - he got so rich from broadcasting that he no longer works in his own pawn shop for a while now. He actually has to be brought in to work only when the show is shooting.

@@RandomYT05_01 Honestly I think it'd be more likely than some whistleblower with association to an entity that has the intent to profit would expose the truth just enough to keep people panicking. Take for example what went down with Jeff Epstein, there had been many folktalkes/conspiracy theories about this "globalist p*do satanist spy elite and etc. etc." for many many years, and having watched for long that kind of content online (guilty pleasure of mine, please don't judge lol, I'm a 2000s history channel kid, so it's only natural I'd gravitate towards 2010s InfoWars youtube lol) I notice that this very panicked and paranoid followers of this kind of belief held onto that version of reality even more with the "little glimpse at the true state of the (new) world (order)" that was Epstein. Similar to people who believe in UFOs, who only need one extraordinary story to feel like every single other is proved. If one alien, let's call him Epstein Alien, came out public, and got suddenly silenced by the "deep state, the clintons xD, the Mossad, Israel, China, idfkwho" there you'll go, you'd have a sheep completely immovable from that conspiracy theory religion just waiting for a shephard to come and save them from the people denying and hiding the "real truth". And thus Alex Jones becomes POTUS, with Giorgio Tsoukalos as Vice Pres. Just as Pizzagate helped Donny. Ok i got carried away. But if "the government was trying to hide it" than I think it'd be more likely for there to be an Epstein story, there is always something that escapes in this day and age. Sorry for the ramble.
And don’t forget that Don Quixote was an alien. So was Ebenezer Scrooge. And Scrooge McDuck. Monty Python were a band of aliens. Also, rocks are aliens! (How did you think the pet rock franchise got started?? It was aliens!) Yo mamma is also an alien!
So the aliens allied themselves with the Nazis, to the point of literally helping them technologically and with arcane knowledge, but not enough to actually allow them to win the war?

Imagine that this show just keeps running for hundreds of years. Then thousands of years. Empires rise and fall, languages mutate, merge, split, and die. Episode 17,846 suggests that a mysterious broadcast called “ancient aliens” from the early 21st century American Republic is far too unorthodox and ahead of its time to have been created by mere humans.

"The aliens did everything" apparently except getting rid of the people that are doing 'Ancient Aliens' to shut them up about telling all their secrets.
I know this comment was a joke, but this is what really bugs me about a lot of conspiracy theories.
"The only people who know the truth are me and those who watch this web series/follow this website that knows exactly what's going on! The people who caused [Insert Conspiracy Theory] just want you to think it actually happened because you're dumb!"
If they had the power to cause said thing to happen, wouldn't they also have the power to just take down whatever it is that you found out this information from and thus keep people from finding out the truth? Like, I see so many people showing random-ass websites as "proof" of outlandish claims for things done by world governments or the Illuminati or some shit, and yet they don't stop and think that these governments/groups definitely would have the power to just remove those sites or bury that information or even just have these dudes taken out so random people can't find out "the truth" about what they're doing.
The best way to make someone not believe something is to make it a joke. Only people with open minds give any of this a second thought no need to shut them up.

I literally face palmed at the “Grim Reaper “ alien claim.
I actually met one of these people at the Nasca lines in Peru when I was backpacking through South America in 2009. He was really exited to tell us about all of his publications on ancient aliens. We had fun hearing what he had to say and then laughing when he was out of ear shot.
We saw him again in an Inca museum a few days later, where he was filming a "documentary". We had just recieved a guided tour where we learned how the ancient Incas tied planks of wood to infants' heads to give them that particular head shape. It was really quite interesting. Then we saw the ancient aliens guy filming his documentary, talking about how the special head shapes might be evidence that the Incas interbred with aliens, and that they had "better psycic abilities". Whatever the hell that means.
So we have two competing explanations: planks of wood or interbreeding with space aliens. I know whch one I find more likely.
Aliens obviously
Science defines the limitations for being the same species their inability to breed, so if they could breed their not aliens their the same species lol. This makes about as much sense as flat earthers or nasa faked the moon landing

Obviously the aliens, skulls are too thick we all know the wood would just break. My skull is anyway.
@@levitschetter5288 Actually, that's not entirely true.
Biology is actually really hard to define, clear-cut and species are in some ways an arbitrary classification.

It's this variation and arbitrary-ness that causes taxons to be constantly shifted around as more information is obtained.
I think we're just a couple episodes away from "Could it be possible that the advent of the Iraq war was influenced by an extraterrestrial presence? Ancient astronaut theorists say yes"

I do agree that ancient aliens is a religion . I also agree that some of their theorys are a bit far fetched . However, I also believe that they get it right in some instances . I think that no matter what Jesus would have been an alien as he is a spiritual being and not of this world. Anything not of this world would be alien. Artificial insemination would be one way of describing immaculate conception . The powers needed to separate the red Sea could have been superior technology and anything that was done that early man didn't understand, including aliens with super powers , or space ships , or whatever , would seem miraculous and certainly they would have been considered God's. I also think that there is evidence in support of those claims. For example, if it wasn't a space ship that was painted in some of our old masterpieces than what was it? And there's the old sculptures that show astronauts in space suits. Why would they even exist unless they were made by people who saw them. I think that their theorys are just as good as any other theory and they make sense to me. They made me more of a believer than a non believer . I don't think that evolution got it right.
My theory on masks is that there were pandemics even back then and the face coverings were for the spreading of disease and not for religious reasons. Crazy ? Maybe, but the Bible does speak of diseases that wiped out civilizations. Just a thought

Exactly! It'd be easier - and FAR faster - to haul some asteroids back to their solar system than make a slave species to mine the Earth.

@@caiuscosades1791 he’s ethnic Serbian, doesn’t really have to do with his nationality as far as I’m aware. He was born in the Austrian-Hungarian empire. Transylvania is in Romania hence the previous comment of “Hungarians and Romanians arguing about his nationality.”
Which it’s kind of funny since if we were going off of the modern nations (since by the time of his birth Transylvania wasn’t part of Romania) he’d probably be considered as Croatian since the region he was born in is part of modern day Croatia.
Just to be clear, I’m talking about his nationality when he was born.

Yesterday I got a pretty good idea while in my shower. Must have been beamed into my head by an Alien.
12:12 What's funny is that in Ben 10 lore, Saint George's Sword actually was an alien weapon made by Azmuth, just like the Omnitrix.
I'd like to imagine that in the Ben 10 Universe, ancient aliens is some how a credible show.
By the time omniverse ends, there is literally nothing that would stop them from interviewing aliens on the show.
Why do you know the lore?
@@richardwainwright507 It was an important plot point in the 3rd series of the show.
@@richardwainwright507 because we watched it.

It's a really solid series.
I feel so bad for any legit Historians who've pitched an idea to the History Channel, gotten turned down, and then they watched an episode of Ancient Aliens.
disappointment 100
Lmao, so fucking sad, considering that history isn't the main thing people pick for study
More like bullet dodged. Like getting turned down by a hot lady at a party only to later find out she got arrested for training raccoons to steal her neighbors' teeth so she could make anti-vaccine amulets out of them. The history channel is a joke.
@@SwedishSinologyNerd That is such a specific example, I think that might have actually happened to you.
Dude watch the science channel it’s way better and it has more actual history than the history channel
If our minds can't comprehend what they're doing to us than why would we have people that are aware in the first place?
Welcome to cult logic.
Yeah wait how would that be possible, you're right
perhaps because they too are aliens!
aliens
because the so called aware always turn out to be charlatans... every single one from Adamsky to Moore is a fraud.
12:14 It's so on point showing Azmuth from Ben 10, because Azmuth literally made a god sword and gave it to an immortal knight named Sir George.
“Because Noah was half alien” how can you just say that like, so casually

Still he just made a common big boat instead of a spaceship, not very alien.

My favorite line of this show is: "Ancient Astronaut Theorists, say YES."
At this point its like a catchphrase
Confirmation bias er, confirmed?
YES!
They did change it over time
"People who fundamentally agree, agree."
I remember going through 4 phases with Ancient Aliens:
Phase 1 - Hey this looks kind of interesting, some of their points actually make sense.
Phase 2 - Oh this is hilarious. They actually believe this crap
Phase 3 - Okay, we're starting to get into conspiracy theories tinged with anti-intellectualism...
Phase 4 - Huh, some of this echoes the 19th century European explorers trying to explain how the people they're colonizing are inferior and couldn't possibly have built all those amazing palaces, temples, etc. And overall it just tries to undermine actual historians.
Oh, you’re a part of the “everything is rayciss” crowd. They’ve done many episodes where they claimed that Stonehenge, the colossus of Rhodes, the Parthenon, and many Roman architectural feats were done by aliens. Plenty of European accomplishments were attributed to aliens. There’s nothing racist or Eurocentric about the show, they’re just idiots and charlatans. You’re just repeating the latest drivel you read on Twitter and Reddit. Try thinking for yourself once in a while, you might find that you enjoy it.
@@N0TYALC i dont think he was saying they were being racist - he was saying it was equally factually wrong and similar in content, infantilizing humans in general instead of native populations + is a sick parody of actual historians
@@N0TYALC plus the show does seem to focus on non-European monuments for some reason - i think that's just because it seems more mysterious to the primary audience base rather than any actual racism though.
he did call the cultures discussed "primitive peoples" and stated bluntly that the reason they knew more than the Europeans in some ways had to be aliens though too lmfao
fr tho, some of these episodes have like almost racist undertones in it, it's like they can't believe that a non-caucasian group of people built this amazing structure, it has to be aliens.

this is like “i’m not relegious but spiritual” to a whole new level
I mean new age or mindfulness is annoying. But the whole idea is kinda just agnostic for hippies. Ancient aliens is just a cult.
An idiot dismisses aliens having come to earth in our past, an even bigger idiot believes we have proof they did.
On a side note: 'being spiritual not religious' can mean a lot of things, one example that makes scientific sense is ancestral memories encoded into our DNA, epigenetics supports this. If you're capable go read about how someone's experiences can shape what kind of children they will have.
@@Robb1977 yeah kinda
@@g.dalfleblanc63 1) if theres no proof of aliens how do we know they were there
2) even with no evidence whats the probability of aliens visiting earth(i.e the universe too big for us to travel to earth and have we seen ufos in space)
3)spiritual but not religious means i get to take the good parts of religions and other beliefs and mush them together(i.e god is real, buddha statues, believing that you can change reality with your mind)
@@conlangknow8787 You can be not religious but spiritual
It's called Buddhism.
Or Taoism.
Or Confucianism.
Or basically any eastern philosophy.
Spirituality is basically religion without a god. It's very similar to a philosophy but often contains more spiritual focused elements such as a focus on meditation or yoga.
Your comment confuses me, are you implying you have to be religious to be spiritual?
I feel like Ancient Aliens was supposed to be a One Time Gig in the History Channel that ended up being WAY too popular. So they kinda kept the ball rolling, and rolling, and rolling.
That would definitely explain a couple of things.
Sure seem that way

It's the same with most of their shows. I'm pretty sure Rick Harrison never intended for Pawn Stars to have 13+ seasons, but hey - he got so rich from broadcasting that he no longer works in his own pawn shop for a while now. He actually has to be brought in to work only when the show is shooting.

The best part of the show is the relationship between David childress and Giorgio tsulakulos. When they go visit that mysterious lake in Mexico together they’re just so stoked , especially David , he gets all bumbly when excited .
My grandma actually watches Ancient Aliens because she thinks the narrator's voice is soothing. She records when it airs and then plays episodes in order to sleep. Every night.
Same narrator as the big Star Wars documentary "Empire of Dreams"
My god, he's an Alien, with a sleep inducing voice... giving technology... thing.
He does the exact same routine for Curse of Oak Island.

Well, the MIB theory explanation does explain why the government tries to hide it. So we don't have a mass panic. Makes sense. really.
@@RandomYT05_01 Honestly I think it'd be more likely than some whistleblower with association to an entity that has the intent to profit would expose the truth just enough to keep people panicking. Take for example what went down with Jeff Epstein, there had been many folktalkes/conspiracy theories about this "globalist p*do satanist spy elite and etc. etc." for many many years, and having watched for long that kind of content online (guilty pleasure of mine, please don't judge lol, I'm a 2000s history channel kid, so it's only natural I'd gravitate towards 2010s InfoWars youtube lol) I notice that this very panicked and paranoid followers of this kind of belief held onto that version of reality even more with the "little glimpse at the true state of the (new) world (order)" that was Epstein. Similar to people who believe in UFOs, who only need one extraordinary story to feel like every single other is proved. If one alien, let's call him Epstein Alien, came out public, and got suddenly silenced by the "deep state, the clintons xD, the Mossad, Israel, China, idfkwho" there you'll go, you'd have a sheep completely immovable from that conspiracy theory religion just waiting for a shephard to come and save them from the people denying and hiding the "real truth". And thus Alex Jones becomes POTUS, with Giorgio Tsoukalos as Vice Pres. Just as Pizzagate helped Donny. Ok i got carried away. But if "the government was trying to hide it" than I think it'd be more likely for there to be an Epstein story, there is always something that escapes in this day and age. Sorry for the ramble.
Lets see. A franchise with only enough ideas for a flick (or one season) that had to recycle ideas for the sequels. Yeah that checks out.
“The alien we know as...”

“The grim reaper.”

What about the alien known as Bugs Bunny?? He was an alien too!!
And don’t forget that Don Quixote was an alien. So was Ebenezer Scrooge. And Scrooge McDuck. Monty Python were a band of aliens. Also, rocks are aliens! (How did you think the pet rock franchise got started?? It was aliens!) Yo mamma is also an alien!
So the aliens allied themselves with the Nazis, to the point of literally helping them technologically and with arcane knowledge, but not enough to actually allow them to win the war?
Alians has shit on the Russian
You see Ivan, if alien help Nazis, then activate russian bias button and start making 5 million T-34's every day
They were also helping the Americans, Russians, and Japanese. So it all evens out I guess.

The sad thing is that they sometimes interview legit historians, and I assume they don’t tell these actual academics what they’re interviewing them for.

Well, no ordinary human could possibly have created something as complicated as bread and then thought up slicing it - that takes alien intervention
Just like how stupid humans could never independently think of drawing circles, spirals, and piling stones into pyramidical shapes - that must have been knowledge spread around the globe (and millennia) by aliens
Notice how the Ancient Alien Theorists think all the various different civilizations existed at the same time - as if the Maya were building pyramids at the same time as Egypt - even though they were separated by thousands of years
