    The video title is Scientists Terrifying New Discovery Under Sahara Desert Changes Everything! — but I watched it all with interest and didn't see anything there that was "terrifying" or which "changes everything".

    And the video thumbnail — the intro image displayed — makes zero sense, either. (I amended the thread title to be a little more appropriate and helpful to readers.)

    What the video does present, and very well too, is:
    • The climatic changes over time in the Sahara, and their likely cause
    • The distant history of the evolution of whales
    • The enigma (to some) of the Richat structure in Mauritania
    • The "Clayton rings", clay-jar-like archeological artifacts so far unexplained.
    This Avalon thread is relevant here: (one member, Iloveyou, visited the structure personally in 2018)

    It is actually a very interesting video - despite the click-bait title - I particularly appreciated the information about the whales, which seems counter-intuitive but makes a lot of sense. The theory about Atlantis actually has a bit more potential evidence to its validity than many that I've seen over the years!

    I've read somewhere that underneath the Libyan part of the Sahara they have found a gigantic sweet water 'lake'.
