Um, those are some great shots. I'll, uh, you know, yeah, that's, that's great. That's amazing. You found this. Um, that's really amazing. You found this. I guess I was trying to recommend some of the stuff to Jimmy and I was, wasn't able to find, find some of it when we were, you know, uh, kind of collaborating on that video.
I'll tell you this, I went way off the beaten path in China for the Great Wall. So you have the section that's been completely rebuilt that are the tourist sections. And, you know, that's just, we can go into that a bit more, but they're doing that all around the world as well. I went way off and way into the mountains. And when I came into the wall, I was on the north side of the wall.
And I walked right up the wall.
The outside of the wall, yeah. The Siberian side, like outside of China. and um there were plenty of areas where it was easy to scale up the wall from that side nowhere did i see and this is all in areas for miles that i walked nowhere nowhere did i see except for parts where it was collapsed was it easy to scale get up or get down on the china side of the wall
And that side was always built in on cliffs or drops or things like that. And these are the areas that had not been restored. You know, we went way out. And then I walked for miles down the wall in a completely uninhabited area of dirt roads to get out there, then walking for miles down the wall. It goes that far? Yeah.
That's crazy. Yeah, so, you know, I think there's a lot to be explored there or looked at there. And, you know, these things that I find around the world and notice and see... you know, speak towards a hidden history. And in my mind, lead a lot of, you know, support to the idea of exploring the questions of if everything that we've been told about stuff is, should we take it at face value?
And my answer to that question is no. Right. Right. that we should be asking questions regardless of whether somebody else tells us that we've already figured that out. I think that people like that shouldn't be listened to anymore. We've got to start over from the ground floor in a lot of areas.
and ask ourselves if everything that we've been told is true or if it's been filtered through hundreds if not thousands of years of changes in government and societal ups and downs and people in positions of power who control narratives and all of that's been filtered through the dogma of the religion at the time or the political views or anything else.
And these stories and narratives and things have, in fact, become our history instead of the truth. Yeah.
I think that's possible. I think it's an idea that should be explored.
I think, um, and I do want to say, I didn't, I didn't think of this, this theory has been floating around for, for a while. I don't, I don't know who's, who's, who's ultimately responsible for it originally and noticed that I just happened to have gone there and documented it. And, um, I think there's a lot of people doing really good work with the research into Tartaria.
And I think that as that continues on and is ongoing, I think that is probably where we'll get more answers rather than digging into China's history. Because if... portions of China's history are whitewashed, it's really good. Or it's old enough that it kind of holds water, so to speak, if that makes sense.
But the problem I have with a lot of that is we're seeing now actively China and China's government covering up now, right now, in modern times, covering up sites. Um, and, and, and, you know, the, the idea that, I mean, there isn't a scenario where it's not possible. It's completely possible that they're whole. And it's not China, just China, by the way. This is going on all over the place.
Their sites are all around the world. I mean, this is happening everywhere. At every major site, you go to Mexico, and these are all reconstructed sites. Chichen Itza doesn't look like Chichen Itza was found. It's an estimation. It's an approximation of what they think it look like. Teotihuacan, these sites in Belize, extensive amounts of sites in Egypt and places like that. Areas like Cambodia.
I've traveled around the world, all over the place and been to sites Where they are... I'm watching people reconstruct sites and take old ancient blocks and cut them with stone saws to make them fit into the wall that they're recreating for that site. So they're not... The idea that a lot of these sites, when they're rebuilt, that there was a level of intimate care put into reshaping them and
getting them back as close to an approximation of what they originally were by specialists and experts is not what's going on at the vast majority of these places around the world. I've seen it with my own eyes all over the world on every continent.
a lot of times what they're doing is is taking modern equipment and cutting these pieces up the way that they need to go sometimes sometimes smoothing them out to make them look better or stuff but most of the time just taking them and fitting them in and then building the wall that they think used to exist there that's what's going on day laborers modern construction guys making minimum wage
in a poor country who are willing to work 12 hours plus a day in the jungle like cambodia and you know stack rocks basically so this is this is you know this isn't a This isn't specific to China. I didn't mean to go off on a rant there. I'll bring us back to China, but this is going on everywhere.
And I don't know that Pomos, it took me a long time to grasp that as I've been traveling the world, visiting all these places. Because when I walk up to a place, Being overwhelmed with the sight of it. Like going to a place like Teotihuacan and walking up on these pyramids and just being just, wow, marveling at how impressively massive these things are. But then realizing this is all recreated.
Or Chichen Itza, realizing this is all recreated. Or, you know, take your pick. And which is why when I get to a place, which is why I've so enjoyed focusing on places like Yangshan Quarry or Sacsayhuaman or, you know, these types of places.
