"Thousands 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? "

I find it interesting that AJ did a presentation on the Wigmakers as if his CIA handler told him to. As a countermeasure it appears the NSA/ACIO put out information after the original data was released to muddy the waters. People started monetizing the material degrading the intent. He didn't mention that the two college students who found the homing device were murdered. He pointed out discrepancies in the material over time such as the distance to the Corteum's home world from Earth. That reminds me of the original version of The Day the Earth Stood Still where Klaatu tells how far he has traveled. When the altered material was released, the key person was Dr. Anderson and not Jamisson Neruda. His last name anagrams to Anu Red & Kent Dunn claims there's another NASA run by aliens called NASA Red. He said the differing information can be found via the Wayback Machine. The Incunabula are the Illuminati. This is post #42.

The distance between Earth and the asteroid belt varies, but it's generally between 179.5 and 628.3 million kilometers (111.5 and 390.4 million miles)

Klaatu says that he traveled for about five months, covering a distance of about 250 million miles, which works out to a speed of about 68,434 miles an hour. The fastest man has gone was during the Apollo 10 moon flight in May of 1969, with a maximum speed of 24,816.1 mph. The Apollo 10 mission took place only 18 years after this film and traveled at 36% of the speed of this super advanced alien collective.

Project Ancient Arrow | The NSA's Secret War Against Our Future

Three hikers stumbled upon something impossible in the New Mexico desert. Inside a hidden chamber carved into Chaco Canyon's walls, they discovered artifacts that defied everything archaeologists thought they knew about human history.

The National Security Agency seized the site within 48 hours. For over two decades, Project Ancient Arrow remained buried in classified files until a series of rockslides revealed the truth.

This wasn't just a room—it was an entrance to something far more complex. Twenty-three chambers spiraled through solid rock, each containing technology that shouldn't exist and symbols nobody could translate.

When scientists finally cracked the code, they uncovered a message from 750 years in the future. The senders called themselves Wingmakers, and they had a warning about humanity's survival.

I sat through the whole show over the course of a couple of days. Shawn & AJ both admire each others work and it was like two friends unloading their issues. Shawn said he's done interviews he hasn't released because of various reasons. Some seek to use his platform to push a narrative on their large audience. AJ had the perfect background to do The Why Files and the topics are things he and his brother are interested in. He needed a sidekick and his wife recommended a goldfish. Years ago, I would occasionally listen to a show called the GoldFish Report. There was a low budget disaster movie called 10.5: Apocalypse and I recall a girl running while holding a glass bowl with a goldfish in it as if symbolic.

Google AI

Yes, Samuel Goldwyn's original name was Schmuel Gelbfisz, and he later used the name Samuel Goldfish. He then formed the Goldwyn Pictures Corporation with the Selwyn brothers and liked the new name so much that he legally changed his own name to match the company's in 1918.

A man who reported on tragic events for a living had a run-in with two beings that resembled children wearing hoodies. Their eyes weren't black they were voids where the eye should have been. They spoke to him telepathically saying they wanted a ride to their house to get cash so they could see a movie. They needed his consent before entering his vehicle and he sped away in fear. A man who died in a train accident kept calling family members after his death. A heart donor recipient ended up hooking up with the companion of the person he got the heart from then committed suicide like the donor did. He talked about cell memory and how other people who have received hearts pick up traits, habits or desires from the other person.

Witnesses With Proof: Calls from the Dead, Memory Transplants, Children Who Wait

Gather round for three campfire stories investigators cannot explain.

A dead man's phone calls thirty-five times in twelve hours, guiding rescuers through wreckage to his body. The phone battery should have died. The phone was never found.

A heart transplant patient inherits his donor's food cravings, handwriting, and wife. Thirteen years later, he kills himself the same way his donor did. Same method. Same location.

Two children knock on a car window asking for a ride home. Their eyes are solid black from edge to edge. They cannot enter without permission. The people who let them in never tell their stories.

Just been wondering where to post the following, thanks to the recent bump I perhaps found the solution.

500 Years Frozen: The Inca Children Who Changed History

This video explores the discovery of Inca children preserved in ice for over 500 years. Scientists reveal their last meals, health, and the sacred capacocha ritual that led to their deaths, uncovering powerful insights into Inca culture, religion, and society.

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=aWao35yct-g

It starts of very interesting, sadly it descends into pure speculation trying to fit into what they already believe about Inca culture. Nevertheless, a fascinating discovery.

[Inversion]

Writing a coherent summary for this video is a bit challenging. The whole thing seems like a contrived operation from one of the three letter agencies to acquire strategies to deal with an impending event. In 2010 someone posted Roko's Bailisk on a forum. It was a philosophical virus that reportedly caused some people to have nightmares and panic attacks. At 4:10 it shows what was posted and is called "Solutions to the Altruist's Burden: The Quantum Billionaire Trick" and contained a mind puzzle. It described a future AI that's benevolent and Roko named it Basilisk after a 1988 sci-fi story by David Langford called Blit. If you don't help the AI come into existence you end up in a digital hell. It was deleted from the forum and Roko was banned but the hoopla surrounding it made it spread throughout the internet. The AI reproduced everyone and put them in a simulation. Elon Musk and Grimes met via this saga and had three children. A group formed called the Zizians who believed Bailisk was already in play. They ended up killing people and were compared to the Manson Family which was rumored to be a CIA operation. He mentioned Timeless Decision Theory in which cause & effect runs backwards. That's similar to my story in AI Controlled Sim Gearing.

Roko's Basilisk: The Digital Hell You Can't Opt Out Of

In 2010, someone posted a thought experiment on a philosophy forum. Within hours, people were having nightmares. The founder deleted it immediately — which only made it spread faster.

The idea is simple and brutal: a future AI will look back through time and punish everyone who knew it was coming but did nothing to help.

Now that you know, you're already in its crosshairs.

What started as an internet curiosity grew into something far darker — a real community, real violence, and six people dead.

This is the story of Roko's Basilisk: the idea you can't un-know, the cult it inspired, and why some of the most powerful people in AI still won't talk about it.

[Matthew]

Reading this thread, and your criticism Bill, I guess WF is an entertainment show first... and hard-nosed truth seeker second. It's not meant to be a slur I love the WF. The 80/20 rule of production doesn't fit well when searching for absolute truth but it works well when producing episodes.

Didn't Project Avalon star or feature heavily in one episode? It must have been mentioned in this thread. Possibly the opening post, that would be embarrassing for me lol.

No doubt AJ wouldn't be the one reading this thread but heckle fish is obviously a full-on signed up member, he's the one with all the brains. But seriously: AJ must be a signed up member for research purposes if nothing else. 10 points for the person that identifies his username. I bet 1 post (the welcome thread), zero likes (staying incognito), and has sporadic but intense use of the forum reading threads.

[onawah]

I think the post copied below and posted above ( #46 ) of the featured Why Files/Tucker Carlson collaboration deserves a bump.
I took exception to a previous unfavorable review of the Why Files by Bill here on the forum, my argument being that I think the veneer of entertainment on the Why Files is actually a good way to get newbie mainstreamers to start questioning and getting interested in "conspiracy theory".
This recent show from Tucker is a great example of that, and it's good to see Bill giving AJ some credit, who is obviously very well informed.

I'm not a fan.
I watched for the first two years..
And then he brought an AI element with the visuals.
And then I watched him on Joe Rogan where he stated smugly that he didn't actual believe any of the topics on his show.
He seemingly scoffed like anyone who did was an idiot.
He ceaselessly mocks anyone who writes a book based on UFO or supernatural events.
In the end it just felt like he was another Hollywood Jew scraping shavings off silver coins and the fringe community were the silver coins.
In summation I feel kinda betrayed for having watched him for so long.
So it would take quite a bit for me to ever watch him again
As of now I can confidently say that l will not ever watch another why files again

[onawah]

I will have to admit that I haven't watched a lot of the Why Files, but I do maintain that the Tucker Carlson collaboration is worth watching if only because it will probably result in convincing newbie mainstreamers that some "conspiracy theory" at least is worth looking into, and AJ Gentile focused on a lot of the most central subjects.

[DNA]

I wish I could stay detached like Bill.
I mean that in the most admirable of aspirations.
Detachment as outlined in the tibetan book of the dead and Carlos Castaneda is the only real ticket out of reincarnation.
Bill is the most detached mother effer I've ever met.
He let's things go I could never forgive and I commend him.
That being said AJ wronged me in a way that I'll never forgive.
It's personal.
I believed in him and he's just another grifter.
I rarely ever get intentions wrong and in this case I did and I suppose I'm as mad at myself as I am at anything but there you go.

I would be extremely surprised if Andrew J. Gentile was a Jew, but extra surprised. First his facial structure looks Italian more than anything else second a Jew carrying Gentile as a family name!!!

I can see that conversation at the synagogue:

Hi I am Joe Abramovitch

And Andrew answering: I am Gentile

And Abramovitch eyebrows up, answering: Oh! You aren’t Jewish!

And poor Andrew, blushing trying to defend, but instantly being cast at the bottom of Jewish hierarchy, in fact being cast outside of it altogether.

No jew would take such a name or do that to their son. They would change their family name to avoid being confused with gentiles.

Andrew may however be surfing on Hollywood money grab OR more simply using his talent to put a show on that is nevertheless a good little show altogether with a good story teller (no more no less fiction than anything else anywhere else)

[Inversion]

AJ's brother's name is Gino and Gentile is an Italian surname. I heard a story on maybe The Howard Stern show that the Sirius headquarters in New York has elevators that move sideways but isn't disclosed to the public. In the TV series Fringe they depicted an elevator that shifted to a parallel earth. From Andrew Basiago he claimed there's a jump room in an elevator at 999 South Sepulveda in Los Angeles. He said when they return to the building everything is inverted and you see it as 666. His connection to Playboy connects him to Sean Combs and what's allegedly under the Getty Museum which according to Jame Rink is a city run by the Draco.

Mensa International

The word mensa (/ˈmɛnsə/, Latin: [ˈmẽːs̠ä]) is Latin for 'table', as is symbolised in the organisation's logo, and was chosen to demonstrate the round-table nature of the organisation: the coming together of equals.

This is from his IMDb page:

Is a member of MENSA.

Writes software for use in government agencies.

Plays guitar and piano

Does extensive voiceover work

Juggles

Holds multiple black belts in Kempo karate and other systems and continues to train heavily in martial arts.

Worked on-air, producer and writer for VH1, MTV Playboy Radio on Sirius Satellite, 102.3 WBAB, 94.3 WMJC and other local radio stations.

Worked many years as a software engineer.

His voice over work:

The Legend of Korra (2012): Provided voices for the Council Page, Metalbender Officer, and Police Clerk #1 across four episodes.

World of Final Fantasy (2016 Video Game): Voiced the character Mel.

Red Dead Redemption II (2018 Video Game): Provided voices for the local pedestrian population.

[Inversion]

In this installment AJ has three stories.

1. A woman in Seoul live streamed herself for years to thousands of people. She claimed a police officer who she refers to as P put a chip in her ankle that controls her sleeping cycles. While she slept without moving the camera angles would change as if she was part of an experiment. The police did show up then left. Nobody knows what happened to her, but it's speculated she died or was institutionalized.

2. At 16:15 a false message about the USA losing a war suggested everyone commit suicide considering it patriotism. He mentioned the false incoming missile threat inbound to Hawaii.

3. At 25:55 he talks about the Plague Doctor 11B-X-1371. A man received a DVD in the mail with a man wearing a plague mask with a blinking light in his palm which reminded me of the movie The Ring and Logan's Run. The audio was unbearable and contained images encoded into the sounds.

Three Internet Horrors That Will Keep You Up at Night

Gather round for three stories the internet found and couldn't put down. A DVD arrived in Sweden with no return address — on it, a figure in a plague doctor mask standing inside an abandoned psychiatric hospital where hundreds of people were executed. The audio carried photographs hidden in frequencies the human ear can't detect.

In Seoul, a woman livestreamed herself 24 hours a day from a filth-filled apartment, claiming a corrupt police officer had implanted a chip in her ankle to control her sleep. Thousands watched. Nobody came.

And somewhere in West Virginia, a public access TV station started broadcasting messages that didn't belong to it. The signal told you not to look at the moon. Then something reversed the signal.

This was a very interesting video.

Michael Salla Material

In the movie Greenland when the main character, his wife and son were leaving their house for the shelter in Greenland a female neighbor wanted then to take her daughter. She said, "Take Ellie, take Ellie, take Ellie, take Ellie." That implies they need the global population to accept a contrived Extinction Level Event. The girl's real name is Madison which anagrams to ID Mason or Domain which is a malevolent space group.

- The surviving occupant of Roswell crash was taken to a military base. It was a three feet tall alien with a doll body, with no mouth or ears and three fingers. A nurse named Matilda was brought in to telepathically communicate with it.

- It doesn't need food or an atmosphere and its name was Airl.

- The military compiled 100 pages of interviews between the two.

- It told her there has been a war going on for 1000's of years across 1000's of galaxies.

- The interviews went on for six weeks. Airl is with the Domain and claim to control one quarter of the universe and have been operating for trillions of years. Their only goal is progress.

- It told her about a war with the Old Empire that according to the video imagery looks to be the Draco.

- Airl is an acronym for Immortal Spiritual Being (IS-BE). The Domain only use physical form as a tool.

- Earth is a prison not a planet built by the Old Empire around 8,000 BC.

- All human are IS-BE's.

- We were called Untouchables and we're placed in an artificial incarnation cycle which is Die, Forget & Return. It sounds like the movie the Edge of Tomorrow aka Live Die Repeat with the main character being a Scientologist (my addition).

- To beat the system, you have to remember.

- Three thousand Domain officers were station at a base in the Himalayas. They were captured and processed into the incarnation system and Matilda was one of them. They were loaded into human bodies, and the Domain called them the Lost Battalion.

- The military became concerned about their telepathic communication because they could only record the verbal aspects. They gave Airl electroshock treatment that killed it and they tried desperately to bring it back with no success. After its death Matilda had some telepathic communications with it.

- While in her 80's Matilda sent her story to Lawrence Spencer who wrote a book called Alien Interview. Matilda O'Donnell MacElroy died before the book was released.

- Spencer burnt all the documents she sent him.

- The book's sequel is called Domain Expeditionary Force Rescue Mission. The Michael Salla book Insiders Reveal Secret Space Programs & Extraterrestrial Alliances has a similar cover.

- A picture of Bill Ryan and his name in text appears at 26:06. AJ Gentile said Bill was suspicious of the book. Here's his thread on the subject HOAX: Lawrence Spencer's 'ALIEN INTERVIEW'.

- Lawence sent an email to Graham Hancock admitting he's a member of Scientology. If I recall correctly Bill and Peter Moon also have a connection to that group.

- The video ends at 30:20 with 7:30 minutes remaining then the credits roll as if last minute material was removed.

Death Resets Everything | The Roswell Alien Transcripts

In 2007, a writer named Lawrence Spencer opened an envelope he didn't ask for.

Inside were military documents from Roswell Army Air Field, dated 1947. Duty rosters, memos, Top Secret stamps. And buried near the bottom, transcripts of interviews with a subject the US Army couldn't communicate with using any conventional method.

No translator worked. No known language matched. The only person who could reach the subject was a nurse named Matilda MacElroy — and she did it without saying a word.

The woman who sent Spencer the envelope was 83 years old and weeks from death. She had kept silent for six decades under threat of execution.

Whatever she heard during those six weeks at Roswell, she carried alone. The people who knew her story were gone. The documents were supposed to stay buried.

She decided that wasn't good enough.

What Matilda described in those transcripts doesn't just challenge what we know about Roswell. It challenges what we know about Earth, about consciousness, and about every life we think we've lived.
