STRIPPED: Proving Atlantis | The Megalithic Yard Mystery
🕑 Added 2025-04-29 09:19:50 +0000 UTCThousands of years ago, ancient cultures across Europe built massive stone structures with extraordinary precision. Scottish engineer Alexander Thom discovered these sites all used the same exact unit of measurement: 2.72 feet, which he called the Megalithic Yard.
This measurement appeared everywhere, from Stonehenge to the Scottish Isles, at sites separated by thousands of miles and built across thousands of years. These structures weren't just monuments - they were sophisticated machines that tracked celestial movements with astonishing accuracy.
How did ancient people without writing or advanced tools achieve such mathematical precision? Why does this measurement connect to fundamental constants of the universe? And most puzzling: why did they suddenly stop building these structures?

Thanks for measuring this phenomenon carefully.

I can't believe people cry about hecklefish being in the video. I will never understand why people can't just be happy with what's being done.

I just listened to your Electric Universe podcast and you missed a few critical points about Velikovsky. Back in the 70s Lockheed asked me to put together a series of talks by some βfringeβ scientists, Velikovsky was one of the scientists who I invited. I was lucky enough to spend some personal time with him in my home after the presentation, by this time he was a broken man, the attacks on him had pretty much destroyed him. The attacks, of course, were entirely unfair. His basic thesis, Earth changes mostly come from cataclysm not from evolution has been proven absolutely correct. He was essentially the father of modern day cataclysmic theory. In addition, he proved that scientific research can take many forms. Essentially, he studied ancient myths to see where they came from. So, 50 years ago he was saying that the world wide flood was real. He deserves much more credit than heβs been given.
