The Science of Ancient Acoustic Levitation | How The Pyramids Were Built?
[Music]. [Applause]. ancient civilizations possessed. knowledge that has been lost to time. i think that's obvious but to be fair. most lost knowledge is probably not. practical to us today anyway i mean who. cares what bacterial infection some. ancient swami cured with pine nuts and. prayer. when we could just use an antibiotic and. if some shaman or witch doctor. discovered how i can make windows not. update. the very second i start a zoom call well. i'd love to know that secret. but shaman are typically mac people so. not a problem for them but what about.
ancient technologies that would be. of practical use today like levitation. specifically. levitating large heavy objects now that. would be useful many people believe. levitation specifically sound or. acoustic levitation. was how ancient civilizations like the. egyptians built the pyramids. there's actual science that supports. this let's find out why. [Music]. the ruins of several ancient. civilizations like the pyramids of giza.
stonehenge in the uk and many others are. monuments constructed of. massive stones and the first question we. have to ask is. why why use huge ridiculously heavy. pieces of stone when the same structures. could have been made with smaller blocks. like. bricks yeah they were showing off but. we're looking at that question through. a modern lens based on the technologies. that are available to us. today we do know that sound can levitate. objects and i'll get into how that works. a little bit later. but current acoustic levitation.
technology can only move. tiny objects with very little mass. nobody's building pyramids at mit. and if you are awesome some researchers. think ancient cultures may have mastered. levitation through sound. which allowed them to easily manipulate. massive objects. hokey religions and ancient weapons are. no match for a good blaster at your side. kid. yes the jedi weren't ancient culture but. let's look at cultures. in our own galaxy how the great pyramids. of egypt were built has been the subject.
of debate for. a long time aliens the fact is no one. really knows for certain. how they were constructed how the aliens. know the mainstream theory is that it. took a workforce of about 5 000 men and. 20 years to build the great pyramid. using ropes pulleys ramps and cranes and. that may very well be the case though. i have my doubts and if you guys want a. whole video on the construction of the. pyramids let me know in the comments. there's a lot to cover about pyramids. for example they weren't built by slaves. aliens don't need slaves can we can we.
cool it with the aliens. for just a minute but let's talk about. the 10th century historian. abul hassan aliyamusudi he's known as. the herodotus of the arabs. and al-masudi traveled all over the. world but finally settled in egypt where. he wrote a 30-volume history of the. world. like everyone he was awestruck by the. pyramids. and he wrote a very intriguing passage. about how the giant stone blocks were. transported. first magic papyrus was imprinted with. symbols and placed under each stone.
then the stone was struck with a metal. rod that caused it to slowly. rise above the ground the stone then. moved along a path that was paved with. other stones. and fenced in by metal poles the stone. traveled along this path for about 50. meters. then gently settled to the ground this. process was then repeated over and over. again until the builders had the stone. exactly where they wanted it. some believe metal poles could have been. used to create high frequency sound. vibrations. which would have been responsible for. creating the levitation effects. now given that the pyramids were already.
thousands of years old when almasudi. wrote this. we have to wonder where he got his. information was this an oral history. passed down through the generations or. just a great story created by a talented. writer um. can i make a quick point go ahead may i. refer you to. clark's third law right clark's third. law says any sufficiently advanced. technology. is indistinguishable from magic bingo. the great pyramid of giza does possess. some extraordinary acoustic properties. and can dramatically amplify sounds at.
certain frequencies. so the egyptians clearly knew a lot. about sound science. and how it could be used to produce. powerful effects possibly including. levitation. did striking the rock create vibrations. that resulted in sonic levitation. maybe the layout of stones and rods. created some kind of magnetic levitation. the science for either scenario is. sufficiently advanced. and therefore to al-masudi and to us. is indistinguishable from magic now the. pyramids aren't the only ancient. structures made of huge stone blocks.
there are monuments around the world. that contain stone components. of such incredible size that they make. the pyramids look tiny but their. construction. remains a mystery let's look at a few. more. the temple of jupiter at balbeck lebanon. contains the three. largest stone blocks ever used in a. man-made structure. each block is estimated to weigh as much. as 1 000. tons now no industrial equipment in. existence today could lift one. no super crane and certainly no number. of people.
yet somehow they are positioned together. so precisely. that a sheet of paper can't fit between. them now nearby is an. even bigger stone it's known as hajjar. el hibla and it's the largest piece of. stone. ever cut by humans it weighs 1200 tons. it's estimated it would take 16 000 men. to even. budget and it would be a huge challenge. of modern technology to just create it. yet. there it is how did they do it nobody. really knows. let's go to the other side of the planet. on a remote plateau in bolivia 12.
000 feet above sea level there's a. monument called puerto del sol or gate. of the sun. this elaborately carved megalith is a. single piece of stone that weighs. 10 tons cool well how did it end up. almost four kilometers. up a mountain and some scientists think. that it may not be in its original. location and if that's so where did it. come from. here's another nam adal is an. archaeological site on the island of. pompei and micronesia. and it's been called the machu picchu of.
the pacific it's the only ancient city. ever built upon a coral reef the. engineering of non-medal is so complex. nobody can figure out how it was built. the lost city dates back to around 200. bc. and it's made up of hundreds of stacked. stone logs. each about three meters long and about a. meter in diameter. the logs which are stacked kind of like. firewood create walls that are 40 feet. high and 18 feet. thick that's taller than a three-story. building. yet each stone log weighs about two and.
a half tons. and the logs that make up the high walls. they weigh as much as. 50 tons each how they were moved and. lifted into position is. absolutely baffling the locals didn't. have pulleys they didn't have levers. they didn't even have access to metal. this is stone age technology so. how do they do it well the locals tell. stories. about giants who flew great canoes in. the sky aliens. and those aliens i mean giants. use some kind of magic to levitate the.
logs into place now these are structures. from very different and diverse cultures. from all over the world. what was their secret well these. societies are so old. that there is no record of how these. structures were constructed but in. almost every culture where megaliths. exist. a legend also exists that the huge. stones were moved by sound. either by striking with a rod to produce. acoustic resonance. or by instruments or by simply chanting. stones into position. let's see how that works.
for centuries travelers from the far. east told tales of acoustic levitation. some claim to have encountered mystics. who possess the ability to levitate. themselves. and objects using sound one famous story. comes from a medical doctor named dr. yall. he had been brought to a remote area of. tibet in 1939 to treat a buddhist holy. man suffering from an unknown illness. after spending some time with the monks. dr yao eventually gained their. confidence and to show their. appreciation. they performed a demonstration of sonic. levitation that left the good doctor.
astounded. they took him to a meadow that was. surrounded by high cliffs and in the. middle of the clearing about 250 meters. from a cliff. was a heavy slab of stone then the monks. arranged 19 musical instruments. 13 drums and 6 trumpets in a 90 degree. arc. around the stone and started playing the. other monks began singing. and chanting a prayer slowly increasing. the tempo. during the first four minutes nothing. happened then as the speed of the. drumming and the noise increased.
the big stone blocks started to rock and. sway and suddenly took off. into the air and continued to rise until. it landed on a hilltop about 250 meters. above the. ground this demonstration was repeated. multiple times for dr yall who. actually took film footage of this what. where's the film. oh that's confiscated and classified. well that's a piece of. i know i actually found a paper that. explained scientifically how this. levitation might have actually worked. link below and if you're into geometry.
and geodetics. you're gonna love it sounds moving. another creation credited with acoustic. levitation is the coral castle located. in florida the coral castle is a. sprawling stone compound. built by edward lead scalding between. the years 1923. and the complex is constructed of nearly. 1 000 tons of rock which leads scalding. somehow cut. shaped lifted and maneuvered into place.
all by himself. just him fyi he was five foot tall and. weighed 100 pounds. [Music]. i ruined the moment tonight elite. scalding refused to allow visitors or. observers on site while he was working. so there are no eyewitness accounts. detailing his construction methods. yet alone working mostly at night he was. somehow able to cut and transport. a thousand tons of rock to use for walls. and towers. he also built all kinds of buildings and. sculptures all from.
giant pieces of stone an obelisk he. raised weighs. 28 tons and the largest rock on the. property. weighs an estimated 35 tons now some of. these stones are twice the weight of the. largest blocks in the great pyramid of. giza. all this he did alone and without heavy. machinery the most amazing thing to me. is the stone gate it weighs nine tons. and has about a quarter inch of. clearance inside the frame. it's so well balanced that you could. push it open with a single. finger this is something that would be.
challenging for even the most. experienced engineering and construction. team yet somehow leed skalnen was able. to do it alone. oh this guy definitely wasn't union nope. leedskalnin never specifically. identified sound as a key factor in his. work. but he had an interest in radio and. owned all kinds of sound equipment which. he used for. unknown purposes now no one ever saw him. lift enormous objects. though the story goes that spying. teenagers saw him float coral blocks. through the air like. hydrogen balloons i love this guy i do.
too. i have discovered the secrets of the. pyramids. and here found out how the egyptians and. the ancient builders in peru. yucatan and asia have this only. primitive tools. raised in set-in-place blocks of stone. weighing. many tons he told friends ancient. masters had developed a method for. overcoming the force of gravity. and that as a practicing freemason he. was exposed to this knowledge through. his contacts in that secret organization. this guy built an illuminati sand castle.
with magnets. you might have with magnets or sound or. both. i mean there's actual science behind. some of this. unless you're in a vacuum sound is. everywhere sound is created by vibrating. molecules of a medium like air or water. into waves the waves hit our eardrums or. our skull and our brain decodes the. wavelengths. into sound we don't usually think of. sound as having a physical presence but. acoustic waves can absolutely affect the. environment. think of a nightclub or a concert where.
you could just you could feel the bass. or how ultrasound is used to pulverize. kidney stones. or how singing the right note or. wavelength with a sufficient volume or. amplitude can shatter glass. there are even sound waves that can make. people sick we've got a video coming up. on this so hit subscribe hit the bell.
don't don't over sell it i'm sorry i i i. get excited. anyway current acoustic levitation. techniques use sound traveling through. media. usually gas to counteract the force of. gravity a basic acoustic levitator has. two main parts. a transducer which is really just the. surface that creates the sound by. vibrating kind of like a speaker. and there's also a reflector which helps. focus the sound waves on the object you. want to levitate now to get this to work. there's quite a bit of math involved.
for example the distance between the. transducer and the reflector. must be a multiple of half of the. wavelength of the sound. this is because you need to get enough. molecules lined up under the object in. order to lift it. if you just blast sound in an object all. you're doing is scattering a bunch of. molecules around. that won't work but if we remember the. story about the tibetan monks. they were using this precise technique. they played specific instruments. in unison just like a transducer focused. at a specific. object from a specific distance like a.
reflector. i bet if we knew the actual sounds of. their instruments we'd see a correlation. between the wavelengths they emitted and. the distance to the stone. now i'm not saying the monks actually. got this to work but i am saying. the science is sound. so now that we've seen that sound can be. used to move objects.
is this enough evidence to prove how the. pyramids were constructed. for some people yes for most no for me. i'm not really sure could the pyramids. have been constructed using pulleys. ramps and cranes. like mainstream egyptologists claim well. sure. but when you look at the sheer size. those ramps would need to be. and the distances involved the amount of. materials required to build the. scaffolding would be more than the. material in the actual pyramids. much more so where where all the. construction materials.
to me there seems like there's something. going on here but we can't even. talk about this without being labeled. kooks any challenge of established. scientific dogma. is labeled pseudoscience isn't that a. bit arrogant. i mean isn't pseudoscience only. pseudoscience until it's. actual science but people are afraid to. go up against the establishment. kepler and copernicus were ridiculed by. their peers louis pasteur's research was. rejected by the medical establishment. gregor mendel nikola tesla. initially they were rejected imagine the.
hate they'd get if twitter existed. but that's a long time ago surely we've. matured since then. think about this in 1903 when the wright. brothers and others were building. airplanes. the new york times said manned flight. would not be possible for 1 to 10. million years oops and in 1985. the new york times said no matter how. inexpensive or powerful a laptop. computer would become. nobody would want one no boy and when. apple announced the iphone.
the time said they'd probably never. build it and even if they did. nobody would buy it and speaking of. twitter. here's what the new york times said when. it launched using twitter for. literate communication is about as. likely as firing up a. cb radio and hearing some guy recite the. iliad. whether the service could be made into a. sustainable business quite. unknown i'm skeptical. haven't i always told you don't trust.
the media you have. if you suggest that levitating heavy. objects with sound. or creating free energy is even possible. you're viciously attacked. not just by facebook and twitter but by. the new york freaking times. aren't new ideas worth exploring did. steve jobs care what people thought. about him. does elon musk care no they just went. out and changed the world. so my message today is not to the. corporate media or social media. they make money by getting all of us to. attack each other that's their business.
model it's shameful and that's why. nobody trusts them. who cares george bernard shaw said all. great truths. begin as blasphemies this message is to. those blasphemers. to the recluse out there building. castles with sound. and magnets and his own hands to the. nerd in the garage tinkering with. electronics because he knows in his. heart. there is a better way this message is to. the next kepler. jobs elon musk to the misfits and. dreamers and visionaries my message is. to you. they are going to attack you they are.
going to hate you. ignore them keep dreaming keep building. keep blaspheming because i can tell you. with 100. certainty the world needs you. much more than it needs the new york. times. thanks for hanging out with us today my. name is aj that's hecklefish. this has been the y-files if you had fun. or learned anything today help me out. with the algorithm and comment. like subscribe share the algorithm is a. gorgon with hair made of venomous snakes.
that could turn you into stone. but with your help we can defeat her i. eat gorgonz for breakfast. until next time be safe be kind and know. that you. are appreciated. [Music]. so.
[Music]. you.
