So there is a mountain/plateau I think in Russia. It has fossilized footprints of humans (we have a very unique print, no other hominid we know of has this print) and dinosaurs side by side. The leading theory is "ancient astronauts". How the fuck do you arrive at that when the obvious is staring you in the face? At the same time there are thousands of rocks from south america with carvings showing dinosaurs and humans riding dinosaurs. How the fuck did the people know what they looked like? They are very similar to modern artists depictions.
Basically I think our history is completely fictitious. Civilizations of world scale have come and gone. Some had tech, some didn't. The whole timeline is suspect. -
Also, the oxygen content (and corresponding CO2) levels were much higher in the past as well. That is why we had huge ass bugs. Higher CO2 is actually super beneficial to plant life, and all life. That is why we had huge bugs in the past.

jup. without the extra oxygen, dinosaurs like the Compsognathus could never have reached impressive sizes of 20cm ;)
-
@electrineer I might be thinking anthropology. I think both history and prehistory are suspect.

@Demolishun Also, the US Navy is a reptilian organisation that is at least 100 mio years old, as evidenced by fossilised donuts. Possibly even much older than that, given that the structures found in coal often look suspiciously like French fries.

@Fast-Nop but speaking of actual water oddities. Why are there copper mines 200ft below sea level on the Eastern USA coast and why is there a stonehenge at the bottom of the great lakes? Those 2 really trip me out.
-
@Demolishun That was the US Navy - though they spread those fake news about plate tectonics, melting ice, and floodings as cover-up.

@Demolishun But what's a lot more amazing, they found 200.000 years old Sanskrit texts that are actually confusing Zen koans, but they mistranslated that, which resulted in the C++ standard.
Comparing human size to a dinosaur on a scale of height is the dumbest thing I most often see online.
Yeah well, 65 million years ago, there was more oxygen on earth than today, which means we would be larger as well (if we existed at that time).
A majority of that oxygen got burned up because of them meteors that wiped out every land mammal, which is why we are now the size that we are. Less oxygen means lesser sized creatures.
Dumbass comparison.
