Ancient Aliens Debunked: Nazca Lines

       History
The Nazca Lines of Peru have been an important part of the Ancient Astronaut theory since its beginning. Originally Von Daniken claimed that the lines were kind of a UFO runway, or a type of alien airport, where the alien craft landed and took off. The idea that it was an airport makes no logical sense, and the symbols and rituals which were a huge part of the Nazcan culture more than explain the so called Nazca lines.

Ancient Apocalypse

   2022    History
We offer this captivating full documentary series in a single video, inviting viewers to question everything they think they know about prehistory. Journalist Graham Hancock embarks on a global journey, exploring archaeological sites in search of clues to an advanced civilization that may have thrived thousands of years ago. Hancock presents a bold theory: during the last ice age, a sophisticated society existed but was wiped out by catastrophic meteor impacts roughly 12,000 years ago. He suggests that survivors of this lost civilization shared their knowledge with hunter-gatherers across the globe, sparking the development of early societies.
Hancock visits intriguing sites and natural formations, presenting what he claims is evidence of this forgotten culture. He also asserts that mainstream archaeology may be overlooking—or even concealing—critical findings that support his theory. The series offers a fresh perspective on ancient history, blending mystery, controversy, and the thrill of discovery for those ready to rethink humanity's distant past. All eight episodes are available in a single, continuous video exclusively on our website.

Ancient Apocalypse: The Americas

   2024    History
We offer the complete second series of “Ancient Apocalypse” in a single video. In this series, journalist Graham Hancock travels to the Americas to search for evidence supporting his hypothesis: that an advanced civilization was lost to history during the cataclysms that marked the apocalyptic end of the last Ice Age, between 12,800 and 11,600 years ago. Each episode investigates new discoveries being made in the American hemisphere, which until recently has been largely under-explored by archaeologists interested in humanity’s origins. Graham reveals new findings and speculates about how those findings might suggest the existence of a globe-traveling advanced civilization that left traces of itself in ancient cultures.
In episode one, evidence from New Mexico’s White Sands desert confirms the presence of people in the Americas long before it was possible to migrate across the Bering Straits that formed a land bridge during the lowered sea-levels of the Ice Age. The series takes us to multiple locations in the US, Mexico, Brazil, Peru and Easter Island to investigate when people first arrived in the “New World” and how they made the journey. The findings give Graham reason to question the accepted timeline of human history. During his journey, Graham interviews highly regarded archaeologists and historians as well as indigenous elders, who share their unique knowledge of the sites and their oral histories. Hollywood actor, Keanu Reeves, also joins Graham across the series, discussing, among other things, his insights into storytelling as an act of preserving culture. Experts in the series include American archaeologist Dr. Chris Davis, Brazilian palaeontologist Dr. Alceu Ranzi, and archaeo-botanist Dr. Sonia Cardinali of Rapa Nui, Easter Island, among others.
