Objects Out of Place, Out of Time - Volume 1
🕑 Added 2023-10-11 23:22:46 +0000 UTCThe story of the human race is a story of technology.
One of our ancestors created fire and passed that knowledge along to the next generation. Then the invention of the wheel. Then agriculture, a writing system, mathematics, space travel.
Within our story, empires rise and fall. Technology progresses. Civilizations are born and die. The human race continues to innovate.
All of our innovations are built on previous ones. There could be no aqueduct without the arch. There could be no metal plow until someone learned how to mine iron. There could be no light bulb, no smart phone and no computer without first understanding electricity.
Our progress is linear. It's orderly.
But sometimes an object is discovered that's completely out of place and out of time.
A computer found on a sunken Roman ship. A power plant found in a 100,000 year old cave. Evidence of a nuclear reactor from over a billion years ago.
These objects shouldn't exist. But they do.
Their existence violates the natural order of human progress.
So if humans didn't create these items, who did?

Awesome episode btw
John Cadena
You are appreciated too man.

China is very secretive when it come to archeological things....

I've been a fan of the files for years but i'm pretty new to watching them on discord and I feel the same way my friend!
Shire
I can't speak for a j , but I certainly do on other topics for something completely unrelated!
Shire
Wow. I don't know how I missed this episode but it was pretty cool! I really really enjoyed. It thank you so much once again for such a great video!

Make sure you "jeropa" like and subscribe lol
Tiph Tobie
Fantastic journey! Thank you for the adventure this evening :)
Jimbo KZ
AJ was on it a long time ago when he worked for speed weed, I believe the company was
MikeD
I have a slightly different concern. The recent writers/actors settlement addressed the use of AI, and how talent will be compensated. I don't know if that encompasses use in situations like this, especially if the fake narrator is never identified. From personal experience, I worked with William Shatner in a past life (but this time line!) and he does not do anything for free. He wants compensation. So my concern is these celebrities, or specifically their agents and legal reps, will now come back and demand compensation for simulations of their voices being used, which might result in the actual episodes being pulled down, or blocked by YouTube. Hope I'm wrong about that.
TheArchess
Agreed!
TheArchess
The Why Files is so awesome, my husband & 4 children are hooked & can hardly wait for it each week!
TheArchess
Agreed 👍
TheArchess
I love that show too!
TheArchess
I love the lyrics too! I am working on committing them to memory so I am able to sing along. The Gerdie likes to dance... camels like to dance hook gets stuck in my head on repeat quite often!
Rick Tucker
Yet another EXCELLENT episode. Thank you. Money well spent!
Ryan Lorber
Reggie Watts brought up why files on JRE yesterday! We need AJ on the pod!
Robert wilson
Hi AJ, I was wondering if you have ever been approached by someone claiming to be from our Government who has warned you to back off from a particular subject you are working on, or told to soften your content? I hope not… be careful
No Way Jose
Do you ever do research for something and get scared? This is crazy
Skidward Tentacles
My first episode as a paetron member. Thank you for all the hard work running this channel. I'm humbled to be a part of this!!!
Blackout
Another great episode! Never disappointed. Tracks aj and hf
Floyd
What is here now, was here before.
Donni Wilcox
You are such a treasure AJ , you make each episode so interesting and this one was one of my favorites. You and HeckleFish have such a natural connection and I am serious when I tell you this thing you have created is literally a genuinely top notch show. You leave Other programming in the dust . Love you guys so much 💯❤️
Regan Burke
Love it! Another great ep team
Bonnie Buck
My favorite thing to do on Thursday is to relax and listen to A.J. and Hecklefish ... Thanks for just keeping it grounded A.J.
Autumn Spredemann
Flawless delivery. Well done WF team!
James Mitchell
Love the show, I need more hecklefish he was very quiet this episode.
Chris Henderson
I love your show.
Julia Fox
Perfecto as usual !Thanks Aj , Hecklefish and Team- I’m actually looking forward to the Ad though, and I love the updated lyrics to the original music 😂. I salute the original musical composer and of course the singer songwriter for The WF 😃🧡✨love from 🏴.
Morgan wilder
Really enjoyed this episode & the research required. I have 1 question. What’s is up with Hecklefish’s voice????
RMUS
finally joined now the discrod!! i want the video EARLY!! GREAT WORK!
Liz Jacoby
I look forward to this every week! Thanks guys!
Scott Chervinski
I don't care what Bill Shatner says, this is a professional production.
The Neoborn Caveman Show
While watching the last Indiana Jones installment I said if anyone said one more time "Antikythera" I'd explode. In this episode it did not feel pushed and let's just say: the writing, timing and delivery are way better than what the Mouse House produced. Kinda in line with the Betz sphere episode, one of the bests.
19BiGRED74
SO good!!!
Gavin Evans
Bravo guys. Another tippy top episode!
Sibyle
That was a fun episode! I really enjoyed it. The Greek computer was still extremely amazing for its time. My research showed that it was actually very accurate. Even the elipse orbit of the moon was taken into account.
Brenda H
Thanks for another great video. I love learning and being entertained at the same time. The subjects you select are always the best. Thanks for all the work you all put in to everything you do.
Carolyn Branco
Great episode! Had not heard of most of them. Except for the last bit, which was incorrect. Hundreds of millions of years from now there will still be fossils of humans, the oldest dinosaur fossil is 243 million years old. They were wiped out by a cataclysm 66 million years ago.
Deirdre a greene
I am so looking forward to this show.
Kazren
I love Forbidden History, and there are artifacts no one can explain away. I must say, your lead in to the steel story was brilliant, the Viking having the "magic" sword. I'd like to see an episode about all the unexplainable discoveries that science tries to bury under the rug.
7Heather7
Love it! We will watch again for the premiere as well! I love the hype that leads up to the premieres and its nice to support by adding headcount. Keep being awesome! PS - I continue to love the sound effects and music and all. So well done!!!
Adrian Kemp
Fantastic work from start to finish! I knew about all of these but your delivery and storytelling is absolutely on point as always.
Bad-Haggis
Great story 👏
CF
I am finding this is one of my favorite topics. Great Show!
Richard Sanchez
Omg can't wait to watch this uninterrupted lol
Simon
Fishing good episode!
John Seychel
These stories somehow fit right in to my ideology. Great story again.
Andrew Key
great episode there so much out there that makes no sense ,roll on more
Kathleen Dorney
Always a great ride ! What a great show!
Maff Bowers
An amazing mix of humour, research, immersive storytelling and fascinating topics. Each Why Files video is a total work of art and the success is well-deserved. I'm proud to be a Patreon
Karl poff
Totally awesome even the gotcha parts that were debunked but totally worth it. Hope your not getting tired of complements.
Mik Smith
Another superb entry into the Why Files catalogue. Once again, the amount of research involved is staggering. Thank you AJ, team and Hecklefish :)
nitritre
I'm sure the episode will be good, but you might want to add a flashing warning. Edit: watched the episode and indeed, it was great. But I really hope you will put a flashing warning or a way to skip the flashing part, that might be a problem for some people even if it isn't very long.
Ellis Ray
Fantastic Episode!!!!! I love the ancient technology stuff.
Susi Su
Having read Bernard Cornwell's Saxon Chronicles served me well for the Ulfberht sword story. Knowledge of Uhtred's sword "Serpent Breath" meant I knew what was coming. Great episode.
Stu Ferrol
Liked the call out to Fortean Times!
Helle
Thanks for a great episode, I can't wait to watch it Friday so I can see the commercial, I love those. It was nice to hear Art's voice and to be reminded of Abbott and Costello. 😊
Helle
Yes I've had trouble for last 2 weeks and not just with the Why Files. I'm a patron of another channel and their episodes aren't playing either. Plays and stops or audio plays with a frozen video.
Steven Shi
Great episode as usual! Thanks for putting out one early this week. We could use a video like this to give our brain a rest. It just feels nice to wonder about the unknown rather than look at all the ugliness in the real world now.
Moon Malic
Awesome episode!! :-)
Nelson Roche Jr
Wow! What a concept to end awesome
azreen
love the episode, as usual...Amazing
Patti (Pads)
I am so so happy you guys did this one! Thank you's sooo much! But no matter what you... AJ and Everyone do, IT'S FANTASTIC! Love from Idaho ❤️🥰❤️🥰
Sara Gill
This may be one of my favorite episodes!
Jeff :D
Awesome, this topic was one of the reasons I got to stumble upon thewhyfiles!
Trish Edwards
I've had no trouble like that. Maybe you can go on Discord and ask for help.
Trish Edwards
AWESOME! Thanks again WF!

I've never tried on a Computer. But I've never had a problem on the App on my Android Phone.
MikeD
Hi, George. I'm not a technology help desk expert, nor do I play one on the internet, but let me see if I can replicate your problem. I use a Mac, but I also have a MSFT-based system. I'll check to see if it loads properly. I have seen one or two other people mention this, but not many. Can I ask what kind of computer system you're running on?
George Kuhn
Does anyone else have great difficulty (every week) getting the videos to load from PAtreon? Getting the videos a day early and without ads are too big reasons I joined the Patreon site. If I have to wait until it's on YouTube (which I have had to do about 1/3 of the time....like today), why would I continue a "paid subscrition"? Using Chrome and tried switching to Safari....the PAtreon page won't even load in Safari.
Joe Comstock
Great. As usual.
Kris L
Sweet mid week treat!
Julie Allsop
Awesome!
Seth Reed
Killer!!! Thank you.
Colin Butterworth
Very true, Mike! Tune in for the premieres and then rewatch it again for the hell of it.
Lexikon812
Another great episode!
John Edgeworth
WOW, this must be the greatest episode every, What more can I ask from Gino and his great team, HA just kidding AJ , every week you get better and better, someday there will be no where to go - (Queue up) The Star Trek TOS theme "Where no Man..."
Steve Longhi
I say it every week and I'll say it again; this is one of my favorites.
W
Well done, loved the topic and the presentation! Thanks guys
MikeD
You always seem to find topics that I hadn't thought about...until now! Well done.
MikeD
The sponsor read is just another excuse to tune into the Thursday-night premieres. Not that we need an excuse to watch again!
Melanie Jo Simms
This is great! So glad you are covering this AJ! Can we also look at the Tower of Babel?
AnonLurkerVids
Ok, but how do I download the WF song?? :D Edit: NVM found it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQN-eQOSiOg
Nizze
Lovely episode!!!
Andrea Russo
Good one guys keep it up I love the whyfile family
Wilma Titzgreaux
Aaaaarrrgggghhhhh😭 I need a schedule. Had to go out to dinner with the fam…..would much rather have spent time with my WFamily!
Jason Miller
Another great episode. Thanks AJ and the rest of the WF? crew.
Skwalor
Woohoo
John DeSantis
Love, Love, Love this Episode!!! Great One AJ/Jen/Gino/Victoria and The WhyFiles Team! Waiting for Objects Out of Place, Out of Time - Volume 2....Thank you!
Alphawolf
Great Show... Loved it.
CJ Jones
Very Excited at the new episode! You had me at "These objects shouldn't exist. But they do."
Paul Hutt
Fantastic episode can't wait for volume 2? thank you so much for putting our names up too. Amazing channel we love you all 💖
Anthony Zaro
Oh I'm so excited!
Patrick Thomas
Love how Art Bell is looking over your shoulder.
Dane Busick
Excellent!
Jeff Wallace
A ripping yarn! Thank you.
Bosco Lemonzit
I got mixed feelings on it also, AI fakes frighten me. However, I remember seeing some comic on HBO back in the very early years of cable saying how he use to do this great John Wayne routine but in light of his passing he thought out of respect he shouldn't do it anymore. Then he said "but *^&^ it, I gotta make a living". Still laugh at that after over 40 years. I guess if you used the voice to say something antithesis to what the person stood for, like Sagan saying 'evolution is false we are created by God', which would be opposite of what he believe, well, while he was alive - may have a different opinion now, that is wrong for sure. Lot of grey area right now with AI
Jeff Pierce
Outstanding episode as always !
Luke Martin
Your outro will soon be longer than your episodes! #winning!
h0tline.actual
Hell yeah! The return of the Wednesday early drop!
Joan Robinson
Excellent episode! Very interesting.
shawn hoekstra
Love this one !!!!
Keith 'Asheraven' Aichele
The Enterprise D! And love this episode!
Mike Stevenson
Normally I disagree with the comments, but yes. Manipulating the dead is wrong. I’ve said it ever since the Tupac Hologram.
Mike Stevenson
Aw man I was bout to go to bed, I got work in the mornkng!! Welp guess I gotta stay up and watch the new episode!
mirZda
Really not a fan of the fake celebrity voiceovers using AI. It is distasteful to do this, especially with deceased persons like Art Bell & Carl Sagan. Using an AI for voiceovers is fine, but please do it more tastefully… fake celebrity cheapens the content.
Amy_OnlyForHecklefish
Me, too, Hecklefish....I LOVE theories! Perfectly presented yet again. Nice work AJ and WF team!
Kathleen M
That was awesome!
Pete Mitchell
Thanks guys! Big fan of debunking...and not being able to 😊. Instant happy thrill when I see there's a new video. Love what y'all do and the way you do it!
Elise
In 2017 what was dubbed a metal starfish washed ashore in Westerly Rhode Island had you heard about this A J. ? As well of the Sink Holes in the sand eating Beach Goer's on Narragansett Beach among other beaches.
Ray J
Awesome topic so many mysterious occurrences.
Kym Andreozzi
Amazing!!🦎
Mhayen
Pretty nice liked it interesting subject and explanation ,of yu is😁
Mark william lane
Fun
Blackout
This is going to be an amazing episode, as usual.
Bosco Lemonzit
Gosh &$#%#£$&@
Randy Hall
Definitely agree. Rather give my money directly to him rather than YT.
Jim Hoffman
I love this topic. Got me into the whole Alternative History subject. I think for me it started with the spark plug found in coal. Not saying I believe it, but still fascinating. I think it's more likely that science doesn't yet fully understand geological processes.
Colin Butterworth
hahaha Yu found
Don Duvall (Tazd'ij)
Is this the same video which will premiere on YouTube, this week? Or is this something else. Even though I could watch it now, me and my eldest boy have a ritual of watching the live premiere together, so I wouldn't want to ruin that, by sneaking in an early look.
Drew Lane
Volume 1 -- brilliant!! :) Thank you WF team! You've totally made my Thursday! :)
Colin Butterworth
I'm actually disappointed the sponsor read wasn't in the early release. Oh well, onto the rest of the video lol Love this episode! Awesome as always. YOU are the best lol
Elise
Awesome 😎 Thanks
pheobekate
YAY!! THANK YOU WF!
pheobekate
I FEEL THE EXACT SAME WAY!!!!😍
Jamie Johnson
These episodes are what I look forward to watching all week.
Osiris Ledbetter
Epic topic! Thank you WF!
Jason Sanford
We're a little more than a month away from an extended episode or multi-part series covering the Granddaddy of All Conspiracies which turns 60 next month...right? #11/22/63
Eric
Becoming a patron for this channel was the best decision I've ever made.
7Heather7
Yay!! I know what we’re watching tonight!!!
