Hey guys, today we are at the Preah Vihear temple in Cambodia and I found something very interesting and I cannot wait to show you this. Come... Now, this temple was built in 12th century, right? So this is about like 900 years old and you can see these big blocks of sandstone.
But apparently this is impossible technology, right because you see these huge blocks of stone. But look here. Look at the corner pieces.
These are for example two pieces of stone, but they're not. Look at the right angle. This is just one piece of stone or it may not even be a stone. It may be like a geopolymer technology
because look there's nothing in between no connection. Look here and then there. There are no connections. Again look... There is a spider here. So I may not be able to touch it. That's a huge spider, but look look at the corners. Do you see any lines at all in the corners? No, this is one stone apparently. What kind of technology is this?
How did they make these corners completely using single stone blocks? This needs extraordinary engineering. Now let's go to the other side to see what's going on. Look at this piece again, no connection on the corners, but look here... This was not even just like one piece. Goes all the way here and apparently bends, the stone is bending at an angle it's curving and then comes here and goes in a 45 degree angle goes all the way outside and I may have to go outside to show you where this rock ends.
Because this may not even be a rock. This is extraordinary technology. How did they build this? 900 years ago in Cambodia! Now... Let me show you the walls here. These huge blocks of walls.. Look at look at this block for example. Look at this block...This is going at the 90 degree, this is going at the 90 degree and this is fine. Look at here. There is a small bump. Look at this. Ok?
Now this was made to fit this block here. This means that all these blocks were created like a jigsaw puzzle so that none of them would be easy to pull out. OK, So this is again, look at here, right, going all the way.
Here look at this piece. There is a small bump here to make this fit. Now, none of the stones or maybe some of the stones are rectangular or trapezoid, right but none of these two-dimensional faces have four corners. They have more than four corners. This is extraordinary technology. Each one must weigh I don't know how many thousands of pounds and they were able to build this huge Jigsaw puzzle 900 years ago. Now how did they make this and traditionally archaeologists and historians will tell well they did it out of hard work.
They were using chisels and hammers and they were calculating using threads... Seems impossible to me to make these using chisels and hammers. But I have more evidence...
Let's go here. Do you think you can make these with chisels and hammers? Do you think you can make these, now, Look at them? They're so dilapidated right? So they're completely almost on the brink of destruction because of 900 years and this area Preah Vihear temple in Cambodia is in
the Cambodia Thailand border. War torn right continuous bombing because of various
you know political situations.
This Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shiva has these columns. It's impossible to make them with chisels and hammers. Engineers agree with what I say. These can be created only
using lathe technology. They have to have a rotating mechanism a rotary mechanism to create this type of you know turns. Now, let me show you more... Here... Look at this column, right?
It's a little bit intact and it has a little bit more light.
So look at this column. Look at look at these pieces right? See, these were created using lathe technology. This proves that ancient builders were using machining technology. So, how did they manage to have such an extraordinary rock cutting technology about 900 years ago, right? So let's take a look at this rock, for example, It must be weighing more than a ton and this is one solid piece of rock sitting in Preah Vihear. Now, Preah Vihear temple is situated on top of a mountain which is more than 800 meters high from the ground level and according to locals all these rocks
were not cut from the mountain top.

17:29 - Conclusion
Hey guys, in the last video, I showed you strange holes drilled into many of the stone blocks of this 1000-year-old temple known as Preah Vihear in Cambodia. There are many different sizes of holes cut into the rocks, and the purpose of these holes has been a mystery, until now.
To decode this, we need to look at these ancient floor tiles. Each tile is a square slab of sandstone, but in the center, there is a circular hole. Surprisingly, these holes are not present in one or 2 slabs, or even some tiles, this is what we see in this entire area. Each square tile is of the same size as every other tile, and there is one hole drilled in the center of every tile. Were ancient builders mass manufacturing tiles, just like what we do today? How else can we explain this kind of replication? You can see that the entire area covered with tiles, has the exact same feature. If you walk on them looking at these tiles, it is like walking through a mass manufacturing setup. But why was the hole in the center necessary? Archeologists give a very simple explanation. Stone blocks are not easily moveable, because we cannot get a grip on them. So when ancient builders quarried stone blocks from mountains, they made holes, so that builders could insert a stick and move them easily. In fact, there are documentaries that explain how multiple holes were drilled in rectangular blocks, so they could be moved by men easily. This seems like a convincing explanation, But do all stone blocks have these holes? Let us go to another area in the same temple complex and look at the floor tiling.
Look at these stone blocks on the ground, no holes on them at all, but look what they have done to the surface. Here you can see this work, this is to make sure that you don't fall. (Rug for grip). Here, here and look.. all the way. This is all grip. This entire place is made of these rocks, where the surface was deliberately made rough. They either used sandpaper, acid treatment or something strange device to make it rough. This is incredible. Yes, today we have rugs, even archeology department uses rugs or carpets so people don't fall, but this rug is 1000-year-old guys, and it will last for eternity, unlike the modern rugs which will disintegrate after 10 years. This is why we love ancient builders right, they built things that even time can't destroy But if ancient builders had to put holes in the floor tiles in that area, why do these blocks don't have holes? How were these blocks moved without the holes?
I am not satisfied with the theory of mainstream archeologists; the holes must have a different purpose. When I examine the walls, the holes are very, very strange and go against these standard explanations. In documentaries, we are told that the holes are drilled through the blocks and wooden sticks are driven through them, and two people would push or pull on both sides. However, none of these holes go through the entire depth. They are very shallow, and I doubt if they are deep enough even to put a stick on them and make them move. To facilitate movement, holes must be drilled symmetrically, ie., either on the ends or at the very center. But the holes in these blocks are weird, there are a bunch of holes in one corner, while the other corner has no holes at all. Some blocks have a lot of holes, and other similar-sized blocks have very little number of holes or even no holes at all. And one more thing, these multiple holes defeat the purpose, the temple walls are supposed to be ornate and are supposed to look good. The holes actually make them look bad. So the holes definitely served some other important purpose. But we don't know what it is.
But the mystery gets deeper as I explore another temple in the complex. There are some very very strange and unexplainable features. Look, these are not small little holes, they are huge, gigantic holes, not just one or two, but a series of them and they are drilled on the floor. These holes are too large for driving any stick and moving them, these holes had a very different purpose. And why so many holes?
Remember I showed you similar holes on the bedrock of Ellora Caves in India? Ellora caves also has these weird holes on the ground. Those holes were deliberately made for ventilation purposes for the secret underground city which lies underneath.

17:15 - Conclusion
Hey guys, today we are going to look at a strange rock cutting technology at this 1000-year-old Temple called Preah Vihear in Cambodia. I am very excited to show you this because this rock cutting technique is completely mindboggling, and I believe you have never seen this before, in any other ancient site. Look at the ceiling of this hallway, look at the shape of this ceiling, it is an arch, in architecture, we call this a vault. But something is very strange about these rocks, pay attention to the top most pieces of this ceiling. This is extraordinary, because these are actual arch shaped stone blocks made of solid sandstone. Ancient builders have actually taken solid sandstone blocks and converted them into curved arches. The top blocks are known as Keystones and the keystones of this hallway have been bent like pieces of rubber. If we horizontally tilt this picture, you can see how curved these arches are, the degree of curve is just incredible.
But is this really unique? Throughout most ancient civilizations, arches have been used, in fact, Romans used arches more than 2000 years ago, but you are in for a surprise. Let us look at this underground tunnel recently found in Scotland, this was built 300 years after this temple, and at first glance, you think this is a good archway, but look at the top most blocks. There is not one keystone, but two of them, and the blocks are not curved, the builders have merely tried to give an appearance of an arch, these are 2 rectangular blocks with very little curves. Here is the ancient Olympic stadium in Greece, and look at this arch, again it looks like a nice curved arch, but when you zoom in, you realize that the blocks are actually just rectangular blocks and are merely arranged to give you the appearance of an arch. I have looked at many many examples of arches and vaults in ancient and medieval Europe and I am surprised that no true arches exist in Megalithic structures, meaning none of the top most blocks are actually curved as arches. But here, in this remote part of Cambodia, we see how ancient Hindus have bent rocks and created true arches.
Forget ancient times, what about today, do we create true arches, today? This is an ancient vault in Greece, and the top blocks have fallen and have been repaired with new stone blocks, but again look, even the new blocks are actually rectangular blocks with very little curve. Why? Why is it such a problem to create arches, or curves in stone?
Did ancient builders soften stone and create these perfect arches? If so, how did they convert hard sandstone into soft material? Hindus believe that rocks were softened using herbs, then cut into desired shapes, and the blocks became hardened again, after some time. People think of this as a strange theory, but think about this right? How do seeds grow on solid rock? Every once in a while, you will see the smallest seed beginning to gain roots on even the hardest rock. How is this possible? Because herbs and even seeds have natural acids like oxalic acid, which are quite strong. And they can soften even the hardest rocks, this is why you see seeds taking root and eventually demolishing even the largest stone structures. Ancient Cambodians must have definitely used some kind of herbs or acids to soften these stones. Otherwise making hundreds of identical stone arches is impossible.
But this is not just a guess, there is actual evidence of acid treatment. Look at the corner stone of the ceiling, this is shocking, because this gigantic block has completely turned black, as though it was treated with some kind of acid or chemical. Look at the surface of this rock, it is full of ridges, as though it was damaged with some chemical, which has burnt the surface. Ancient builders definitely used herbs or some type of chemicals to soften stones. When I scrape on these sandstone blocks, I realize that their natural hardness has been altered.

14:25 - Conclusion
Hey guys, today we are going to look at an impossible ancient technology found in a 1000 year old Hindu Temple Complex called Preah Vihear in Cambodia. The Preah Vihear Complex has a total of 5 temples, all built on a mountaintop, this mountain or cliff is about 1700 feet tall from the ground level. You have to drive up to a certain point, but after that you have to start walking, And as you keep climbing up and up, you will visit each temple, and as you keep ascending, more and more, the elevation gets higher and higher, and you will reach the final temple, which is at the far end of the mountaintop. This should be no surprise, because that how mountains are, there is a gradual increase in height, right?
But everything you see is a lie, it is an illusion. What do I mean by this?
Here, we are looking at temple number 3 which means there are 2 temples above this level and 2 temples below this level. But Now, look carefully at this area. This area looks like a natural bedrock, natural floor of the mountain with grass and trees growing on top of it. But it is not, look at the edges of this floor. This is just insane. Here you can see thousands of stones have been carefully arranged to raise this, and take this level to a new height and make it look flat. All these things that we see here, underneath them, is an artificially built floor using rocks. It was set up with thousands and thousands of stone blocks, this is not the natural bedrock underneath. And then, they must have moved tons and tons of dirt, and put them here, to make it appear natural.
I am still not convinced that anyone could build an artificial level so vast that we can mistake it for the bedrock of a mountain. This is a different side of the temple and when we look at the edges, Look here, this is all just natural slope, what we see is all grass, plants and trees naturally growing on the slope of the mountain, right? No! Ancient builders are fooling us. Look carefully and we begin to see the stone blocks underneath. This is not natural, it is artificially built. There are 2 reasons why we don't realize this, one, the ancient builders cleverly covered most of the rocks with dirt to make it look natural. Two, this temple has been abandoned for about 900 years and plants and trees have completely taken over all the structures. And yes, Cambodian plants and trees grow on top of rocks, there is no doubt about this. Let me show you the same shot once again, where it looks like a natural slope . If you freeze it, you can see the stone blocks underneath. Yes this is all artificial.
When you go to the base, and see from the bottom, this formation, it is extraordinary. These stones definitely remind you of the Egyptian pyramids, infact this is also a pyramid, the base is built up just like the pyramids of Egypt, by assembling rectangular blocks of stone.
And now, something even more mysterious, what do you think this area is? Is it a natural bedrock of the mountain? I don't think so, we are looking from the third temple level, and looking below, but I think even the temple below was raised using stone blocks and we are looking at the artificially raised platform there too. What does this mean? This means that the entire mountain top was raised artificially, like a pyramid. The mountain top was originally flat, like a plateau or a cliff, but it was artificially turned into a pyramid, a huge step pyramid, where each temple was placed at a higher level than the previous one.
Remember I showed you Sigiriya in Sri Lanka? It was a giant cliff with a flat top? Preah Vihear was originally just like this, but it was then turned into an artificial pyramid. But because the temple complex spans for more than 380 acres, the slope is very gradual. Here you can tell I am walking up hill, the slope is so gradual it looks natural, but this is all artificially raised. And ask any visitor, and they will claim that climbing this mountain top was the hardest part.

Hey guys, today we are going to look at something really fascinating in the ancient temple of Preah Vihear in Cambodia. Today, to reach Preah Vihear temple, we have to drive up through steep roads because the temple complex is on top of a mountain which is about 1700 feet tall, and we are able to reach almost the top, and then we can park the car and explore the temple. But this is not how ancient people visited the temple, Hindus considered climbing mountains as a sacred ritual in itself, so to truly experience how ancient people reached the temple, you have to go through an entrance which is forbidden to visitors now.
This is the ancient staircase and immediately you notice that it is guarded by 2 giant Nagas. The Nagas are snake like, reptilian creatures described in sacred Hindu texts. But these Nagas are awe-inspiring, look at the size of each one. Compare them with my height, the hooded head of the Naga alone would be at least 15 feet tall. But it is not just the size of the Naga that amazes you, look at the details.
The Nagas are commonly thought of as snakes, but look at these heads. Do snake have teeth like human beings? Your initial reaction would be thinking that, no, snakes do not have rows of teeth, they just have sharp fangs to inject venom, but it is not true. Most of us do not know that Snakes do have rows of teeth, but ancient people were much more knowledgeable than us. Look at the heads of the Naga, it does not have one head, but you can count a total of 7 heads. What is the significance of the 7 headed Naga and why did ancient Cambodians carve such a figure? Cambodians not only believe that this underground reptilian race exists today, they proudly claim that they are the descendants of this race. This is why they still make offerings to Nagas, even today, because they consider them as their ancestors. According to Cambodian legends, a humanoid by the name of Preah Thorng married a Naga princess called Neang Neak. And the Khmer race was born as a result of this hybrid union.
Don't ask me how such a creature is possible in real life, we are only scraping the surface of ancient history. Recently, we have found a few snakes with 2 heads, and scientists say these are genetic mutations. Perhaps these were created as a result of ancient genetic engineering, or sculptors carved exaggerated features to show the prowess of this figure, just like how we show deities with 10 hands to show their 10 weapons.
Look at the hood of each snake, it has these lines perfectly depicting the scales, giving a realistic feel to it even after more than a 1000 years. The scales look amazing. But there is a weird detail at the bottom here, it appears as though it has feathers. Do serpents have feathers? In ancient Mayan and Aztec civilizations of Mexico, serpent gods are shown with feathers, this deity is known is Kukulkan or Quetxlocoatl. Furthermore, look at the position of the carving, it is carved on the sides of the staircase, and that is exactly what we see here. In other parts of the region, we can even see these feathered serpents guarding the stairs, just like the Mayan Monuments of Mexico. Is this a mere coincidence? But we are not going to compare civilizations today, let us go back to this Naga at Preah Vihear temple.
Now, are these just Giant Snake Heads? No, these Nagas have bodies also. Look at the length of these bodies, they are each about a whopping 100 feet long. This is just fantastic to see 100 feet long snake bodies being designed as handrails or parapet walls. The body is made up of several stone blocks which have arches at the top. These blocks are aligned neatly and they extend till the end of the passageway.

12:25 - Who built Angkor Wat?
17:22 - Conclusion
Hey guys, today we are going to look at the mysterious Angkor Wat Temple in Cambodia, which has many strange secrets hidden inside. Historians say it was built about 900 years ago with simple tools , but by the end of this video, I think you will agree with me that this is not true at all.
You may have already known that this is the largest religious monument in the world, but how big is this temple? The temple stretches more than 400 acres, that is more than three times the size of the entire Vatican city, or about 300 times the size of an American football field. So you can imagine the size of this temple. Even if we take out all the walking space and empty land, the sheer area covered by stone blocks is at least 10 Million Square Feet. And we are not looking at just a 2 dimensional ground area, we have to look at the volume in 3D because it is made of layers and layers of stone blocks, pillars, ceiling, and towers. The Iconic central towers in the middle, which almost look like drill bits, they are still the tallest structures in this city, even after all these years. The central tower is 213 feet tall, and this view is actually printed on the Flag of Cambodia.
So imagine what would be the sheer volume of rocks needed to build a temple which stretches for 10 million square feet and has a pyramidal height of more than 200 feet. If we calculate the weight of all the sandstone blocks which make up this pyramid, we get about 52 Million tons of rock. I have used a calculator to calculate this weight, using the density of sandstone. Now, we have already not included the rocks in the foundation, we have not included the millions of stone blocks going many feet deep in the moat, and the rocks placed around the moat. And that is already 52 Million tons of rock. Now what I am going to do is take only 20% of this number, so this way we know this is a very very conservative estimate, because Angkor Wat is not a true solid pyramid, there are lots of hollow spaces in between. Let us actually take even less than 20%, we will only take 10,000,000 tons. So this way we know at least this much of rocks would have been used to build the temple.
Okay, so why are we calculating the weight of the stone blocks in this temple? Because, archeologists and historians argue that the entire temple was built in just 37 years. You know the standard theory, people using chisels and hammers to build temples.
Now let us assume that these people worked from sunrise to sunset everyday for 37 years. So they worked straight for 12 hours with no breaks, they don't eat, they don't even blink, and no rainy days, no war, no festivals for 37 years. That is a total of 162,060 hours. So if you do the math, if you divide the amount of rocks by the number of hours, this is the answer we get, approximately 60 tons. This means that they would have to cut and place at least 60 tons of rock every hour. This is 1 Ton of rock every minute. So for every minute they have to measure, cut, carve, lift, place and align one ton of rock. This is simply IMPOSSIBLE. We cannot accomplish this even today, even with modern machinery, we have not yet developed the technology to cut, position and polish one ton of rock of every minute. That is more than 2000 pounds of rock every minute, or 1000 kilograms every minute.

10:38 - Conclusion
Hey guys, today I am gonna show you the extraordinary alignment of Angkor Wat Temple Complex in Cambodia. This is the largest Hindu Temple in the world, and as I reached the very center of the temple, I found a square carved on the floor. And there is something very strange about this square. What is this and why is it carved on the floor of the main tower of Angkor Wat? When I put my phone in the middle, and opened my compass, suddenly I realized its meaning. It is perfectly aligned to the 4 directions, it is so precise, Look.. my phone is placed exactly aligned with the lines carved on the floor, the compass shows the exact 90 degree alignment, with not even a fraction of a difference in angles.
Narration: See this is perfectly facing south. See this line, it is perfectly facing north. This is the north entrance. This line is perfectly facing south, That is the south entrance. That is the main east entrance. It is perfect, and that is the west entrance. 4 entrances, precisely matching the 4 points of the direction. If you stand on this square and look around you, you feel weird because you realize that everything around you is perfectly built with alignment to the cardinal direction points, with no human errors at all. This ancient Hindu Temple is said to be built at least 900 years ago. So, how did the ancient builders achieve this level of accuracy?
And look at the top. On the ceiling, there are 4 lines coming at 90 degree angles, each line coming from the exact Direction point and meeting at the center. If you observe carefully, you will also see more direction lines than just East, West, North and South. Yes, you can also see Northeast, Northwest, Southeast and Southwest as well. All the 8 lines meet precisely on the ceiling exactly on top of the square on the floor. This kind of system is just insane. As above so below, right?
But this is mind boggling, you know why? This temple could be many thousands of years old, but even by mainstream archeological accounts, It was built around 1120 A.D, that is 900 years ago. Just to give you some perspective, There were no compasses in Europe at that time at all. The very first compass, which was capable of showing just 4 directions appeared in Europe, only a hundred years after this temple was built, around 1200 A.D. And this temple, which is supposed to be built with primitive tools, has a perfect alignment without even a fraction of an error margin, this is like modern day GPS precision level. To argue that the ancient builders looked at the stars, the sun and the moon and created this kind of an alignment is not a valid argument at all. You cannot even achieve this level of precision with a primitive natural compass made of lodestone, you need advanced technology. Is it possible that Angkor Wat was built with advanced ancient technology?
Now, let us take a step back and think for a minute, is it really that hard to build with this level of accuracy? After all this is the main structure, this is at the very center of Angkor Wat temple complex, this is the ultimate stop which houses the main chamber. The ancient engineers would have paid all the attention to the angles and directions of this structure, because this is literally the center of attraction, right? This compass only proves that this main structure is aligned perfectly, it does not mean that everything in this entire temple complex is aligned perfectly. In order to find out if the entire temple complex is aligned perfectly, I needed to examine more structures in the complex.
So I started to climb down from the main tower, because now I was in the center of the temple complex, but I wanted to go to edge of the complex and find a structure which is at the borders, at the periphery of the complex. And this is a very very big temple , it is about 400 acres, that is huge. So I walked out from this central area, got out of the sacred temples area and You see this small structure, far away from the temple towers, this is where I was walking now. GH010746 From the ground view, you can see how far I have come, I was inside the main tower there, that's where we found that magic square with perfect alignment.

Hey guys, today I wanted to show you the secret behind this ancient temple called Prasat Thom in Cambodia, at first look you think everything is completely ruined but I am going to show you something exciting. Look at these blocks, anything strange about them? Anything unusual? Out of all the blocks, only these blocks have some type of markings on them? Do you see what they are? Now, let us just follow these blocks with those weird marking or designs. While the other blocks seem to have a flat top, these blocks seem to have a nice curved surface on top. There are a series of these stone blocks, all made of sand stone, each block is about 2 or 3 feet long, and they all look like bread loafs neatly arranged in a line. This is a pretty long line and at the very end, you see something quite interesting. A block that is curved and look what we see, a 7 headed snake, a Naga raised up with its hoods ready to attack. See the scales on its back, now you know what those markings on the stone blocks were: they were the scales of the snake's body. When we go to the front and look at the face of the Naga, half of its head is destroyed, we only see the left side half, we can still see the 4 heads remaining out of the seven. This is one of worst ruined temples in this area - The Prasat Thom temple is one of the worst ruined temples in the Koh Ker complex, this site is 1100 years old, and I know this looks like a giant pile of rubble to you, but we are going to see what we can learn from these ruins. Here, Again another Naga, right next to the pond here, but what about the rest of the stone blocks?
Look at this structure on the right for example. it reminds of you of the Stonehenge in England. This type of construction is called a 'Post and Lintel' System. The pillars are the posts, supporting the lintel which is the stone block on top. All of them are Neatly cut, giant rectangular blocks assembled together, like some giant kid was playing lego blocks. But something is weird about this, look at this pillar, it is broken, and it is no longer supporting the lintel on top, but still this lintel did not tip over and fall down, and everything is still standing in place. How is this possible? And look, they are actually slanted at an angle, and another pillar has fallen on one side but the structure has still not collapsed. How is this possible? That is what we are going to find out now. When we take a closer look at the lintel and the pillars, you don't see anything, it appears as though the lintel is just standing on the pillar. On the bottom as well there are several stone blocks. One block is roughly T shaped and there is even another rectangular block at the very bottom. But to understand the secret, we need to look at more blocks.
And Look at what I found, a long rectangular block on the right with square holes and nearby there are pillars with square protrusions. This square protrusion in this pillar would fit perfectly into this square hole. And look this block has another square hole as well, and nearby is another pillar with square protrusion which can perfectly fit into this hole. There is no doubt that this is the secret behind this ancient technology. This is why, this structure is still standing against all odds, because there are projections fit into holes, keeping everything intact.

Hey guys, today we are going to look at some, really interesting ,ancient rock binding technology. I am quite excited to show you this, because I think I have just discovered something completely new, and this technology is not known to anyone today, so please watch till the end of this video and let me know what you think. Usually, I show you different types of rock cutting technology, but today let us focus on how ancient builders tied or fastened 2 rocks together, this is called Rock Binding Technology. Rock binding is as important as Rock cutting itself. For example, we are looking at a 500 year old temple in Cambodia. Can you tell where the rocks are joined in these blocks? Of course, you can tell the blocks at the ground level, but what about the next level. How many separate blocks do you see? How are they assembled? This is an example of perfect rock binding technique. So how did ancient builders bind 2 rocks together?
In temples of Cambodia, we can see this strange wedge shape cuts placed on stones. When you first look at it we don't understand what it is. Look at this block, here you can see a T shaped cut on this giant stone block. What is the reason for this T shape cut? Let me try to explain how these T shape or Wedge shaped cuts were used. Here, I am using a type of soft foam, and let us pretend that these are 2 large stone blocks which have to make up the part of a temple wall. Now, I need to bind or tie these 2 blocks together, so what do I do? I am going to cut a T shape on each stone block. I cut one T shape on this one, and I cut another T shape on this other block. Actually, I am better off putting the blocks together and cutting an H shape. But why is this necessary? Now, I am going to pour molten metal into this depression, of course I cannot put molten metal here, because this is foam, not stone, and foam will be completely destroyed if I use hot metal. But let us imagine this hot glue, is molten metal, you can see the molten metal settles in this H shape and let us wait for it to solidify. Ok it has solidified not, watch what happens. The stone blocks are now tied together, I can pull or push them together and you can see they act as one block of stone. This is just brilliant, this is what ancient builders did in Cambodia. This technology is known as Ancient Clamping or sometimes Keystone Cut technology.
This is not a guess, we can actually still see the metal clamps in the ancient site at Warangal in India. These mysterious structures were built at least 700 years ago, and the metal clamps are still in place, or in-situ, binding the different stone blocks together. Without these ancient clamps, this massive gate would not be standing today. But this ancient clamping technology is not limited to just Hindu structures, we can see the same technology in many places around the world, we can see many ancient metal clamps in museums of South America in places like Peru. In Greece, we can see these metal clamps still in place, using to fasten giant stone blocks, these are 2500 years old, at a place called Delphi.
But remember, I told you I found something completely new. Let us go back to the ancient Ta Prohm temple at Cambodia, and here we can see something really interesting. What do you see? A combination of metal clamping and deep holes drilled on 2 adjacent stone blocks. Remember, I showed you Keystone cuts separately, and circular holes separately in ancient temples, but the combination of these 2 techniques, will produce some truly fantastic results.
What do I mean by fantastic results? Let us reproduce the same cuts and holes here, and see what the ancient builders were doing. Here I have 2 stone blocks, and I am putting them side by side. I make a straight line cut spanning both blocks, but at the end of the lines, I am going to make deep holes. So, let me drill deep holes on both sides, may be about half the depth of the blocks. And now, let me pour molten metal inside. Let us just wait till the metal solidifies and Now, what happens? The solidified metal is not only on the surface, but also goes deep. This is not just a clamp, it is ..this is like a horse-shoe that goes deep inside the stone blocks. Like I said, this is a completely new find, so there is no name for this, let us just call this Ancient HorseShoe Technology.

Hey guys, there are thousands of videos on YouTube about Angkor Wat Temple, but none of the videos show you what is actually inside the main chamber of Angkor Wat. Nobody shows you that, because it is a big secret! In this video, we are going to find out what is in the main chamber inside this main tower, and it is very shocking, and it has some mind boggling stuff hidden inside.
The main tower is positioned at the very center of this large temple and the tower is more than 200 feet tall. I am finally at this area where the central tower is located, and I begin climbing the stairs, the main tower has quite an elevation and the stairs are very steep making you wonder why ancient builders made it very hard to climb this. As I reach the end of the stairs, I cannot wait to go and see what is inside the main chamber. As I go closer, I can feel a strange pull and I remove my shoes before going near it.
But when I finally go towards the main chamber, I am shocked to see a Buddha in the main chamber. A giant Buddha carved on the wall. This is very strange because, Angkor Wat is a Hindu temple with a lot of Hindu carvings, yet in the central chamber we see a giant Buddha statue. Why? There is also a reclining Buddha statue in the front. This does not make any sense, so I walk around and see if there is anything else I can find. As I walked over to another side, there is another entrance, and again I see a similar Buddha inside. This is a different statue, but this also shows Buddha. There are a total of 4 giant Buddhas carved in 4 different directions in the main chamber, there are no Hindu statues here at all. This clearly proves that Angkor Wat is not a Hindu temple, but a Buddhist temple. In fact, even today, many Cambodians actually believe that this is a Buddhist temple.
But then, look at the top of Buddha, you can see important Hindu Gods like Shiva and Brahma carved as guardians of Buddha, you can see them carved much smaller in size as protectors of this Giant Buddha.
This is pure craziness. So, I go to the side of this chamber, and something is very strange here, you see these blocks? This is terrible stone work, this was definitely not done by the original builders of Angkor Wat, some civilization came later and then did not even know how to cut and carve the rocks properly. Look at the stark contrast between these extraordinary carvings on the side done by the original builders, and the terrible alignment of stones nearby, who came later. You can see the quality of work of 2 civilizations side by side. But the real question is, why? Why did the inferior civilization pile up the stones here, what was the need to do this? Think about, why did the people who came later, decide to build a wall here?
In some places, you can even observe that there is an empty space behind the wall, the wall was built to hide something that was originally behind it. What are they hiding from us?
Now, let's go back to the main chamber, look at the rectangle around the Buddha, does this ring a bell? Look at the top, it looks remarkably similar to an entrance or a doorway. There is no need to have a tapering rectangle background before carving the Buddha. Even more strange, look at the stone blocks behind, you can see the stone blocks are very crudely aligned, and the Buddha himself looks very low quality, all 4 Buddha carvings pretty much look like that. Here you can literally see how many stone blocks were used to make this Buddha, and you can see the mortar joining the blocks. In other chambers, a lot of paint is applied crudely on the wall to cover up these terrible joints.

Hey guys, There is a BIG SECRET hidden in this pyramid, this is the Hindu temple called Koh Ker in Cambodia, and archeologists and historians are completely baffled by this mystery. This is a huge pyramid right? But Guess how long it took to build this pyramid? A few years? A few months? No, This pyramid was built in less than 12 hours, yes, it was built overnight, they started to build this after sunset and the pyramid was completely finished at sunrise the next day. I know this sounds crazy, but this is not a story told by locals, we have archeological evidence to prove this.
In Koh Ker area, archeologists found an inscription which not only gives the exact date of this pyramid's construction, but even the exact time when the main lingam on tojfp was consecrated, or was first worshiped. The inscription clearly says the Lingam was consecrated on December 12th, 921 A.D, and even records the time of the ritual at 8.47. Of course, the inscription gives the equivalent date on the ancient Hindu Calendar.
But this date has completely baffled all experts, you know why? Because the king who built this Pyramid, comes to this area, only a few days before this date. All experts agree that this pyramid was built by a King called Jayavarman the fourth. And Jayavarman IV gets involved in a power struggle with his relatives in Angkhor city which is about 60 miles from here. So he is forced to move to this jungle, with less than 10,000 supporters including women and children. He was a fugitive who comes here to save his life, just a few days before this Pyramid was built. And look at the size of this pyramid, it is massive, this is about 200 feet long , 200 feet wide with a height of about 100 feet, Just look at the amount of stone blocks, needed to build this pyramid? Each block weighs not in pounds or Kilograms, it weighs in tons, several people are needed to move each block. Look at how many thousands and thousands of blocks are placed here. And more importantly, how did they lift these blocks higher and higher. According to mainstream experts, they must have created ramps, they must have captured elephants, then train the elephants and used these elephants to move the blocks to the top. All this would have taken years, plus remember guys, this place was a thick jungle 1100 years ago, they had to clear the forest first. So, how did Jayavarman IV, A fugitive who moved to the jungle with less than 10,000 people, most of whom were women and children, manage to build this pyramid in less than 12 hours? Even if they used machines, Imagine the amount of horse power, the amount of energy needed to build it. Let us face it guys, even with our modern, high tech machines, we cannot build this pyramid overnight. It is simply impossible. So, how was it done?
Jayavarman sought the help of an architect, who built the entire pyramid overnight using a tool called Vajra. This tool is a high tech energy device capable of producing more than a billion joules of energy. This not only explained in ancient texts, there are also carvings in temples, and there are even metal models of this energy device. Now, why do I say a billion joules, because ancient texts clearly explain that this device can produce more energy than a lightning bolt. Without this kind of massive energy input, it would impossible to build a pyramid overnight.

11:57 - Conclusion
Hey guys, today let us take a look at this ancient carving in Angkor Wat Temple that changes everything we know about Angkor Wat. Here you can see a figure riding an elephant, but look, this elephant has 4 tusks. You can see 2 tusks on the left side, and 2 tusks on the right. This is crazy, because we don't have elephants with 4 tusks today, but, 4 tusked elephants actually existed a long time ago. Experts say these 4 tusked elephants became extinct about 2 Million Years ago. And archeologists say that Angkor Wat was built just 900 years ago. If both these are true, how could the sculptors living 900 years ago, carve an animal that vanished 2 Million years ago? Think about it, if you are a sculptor carving this scene, you would have observed the animal with your own eyes before starting to carve. This is the standard procedure even today, so you can create an accurate carving of its size, and the corresponding size of human riding it, and all its features. But how did the sculptor who lived 900 years ago, see and observe an animal that became extinct 2 Million years before he lived?
Some people who believe in strict models of evolution will obviously be flustered by this carving, and dismiss it as mere imagination, or a mere exaggeration by the sculptor, but believe it or not, a 4 tusked elephant fossil has been found in the same ancient kingdom. In today's map, this fossil is found in Sulawesi of Indonesia, but during ancient times, this belonged to the same Hindu kingdom which included Cambodia and Indonesia. This 4 tusked elephant has been dated to 2 Million years old, which confirms 2 things, one: such a species actually existed in the same region where Angkor Wat temple is located. Two: these bones are actually two million years old. And this is mind-boggling, because according to mainstream theory, humans did not even exist 2 million years ago, there were no homosapiens at that time, only other apes with primitive brains existed. So why do we see a carving that shows humans and these prehistoric animals together?
Is it possible that Angkor Wat was not built 900 years ago, but built much earlier in time? Before we go into that, let me show you another strange carving. This pillar is full of micro-carvings of various animals, but here, you can see this strange animal. We can clearly see that it does not resemble any animal that exists today. It has a flat snout, strong short legs and a long pointed tail. This animal is almost identical to another extinct animal called Hyaenodon. The Hyaenodon not only had a flat snout, and a long pointed tail, it even had stripes on its body. Look at the carving, even though the entire carving is only one inch long, the sculptor has put stripes on its body. There is no doubt that this is a Hyeanadon, however, these animals also became extinct millions of years ago.
Why do we find prehistoric animals carved in Angkor Wat? If historians are accurate, how could the sculptors who lived 900 years ago have accurately seen these animals which became extinct millions of years ago, and carve them accurately with all their features?
There are only 2 possibilities unless you believe that ancient Hindus were time travelers. The first option is , these animals did not become extinct until 900 years ago, and were roaming freely alongside human beings. Imagine 4 tusked elephants and Hyanodons, the largest ones were 10 feet long, roaming around 900 years ago. If you accept this option, we have to completely revamp the current theory of animal evolution, because these animals became extinct, and slightly different animals came and went and we have to change a huge chart called evolutionary tree.
The second option is that these animals did become extinct millions of years ago, but human beings also existed millions of years ago. This means that Human beings did not evolve from great apes a few hundred thousand years ago. And we can simply accept that we have not found the fossil remains of ancient human beings. This also changes the evolutionary tree, but it keeps everything else intact, and changes only the tiny branch called humans.

Hey guys, in a previous video, I showed you my search for a 30 feet crystal lingam in the ancient Pyramid of Koh Ker in Cambodia, and how this Hindu temple could have been used to contact the Gods. In this video, let us explore more about the mysteries of this temple. By all accounts, you will agree with me that this does not look like a regular Hindu temple, but when you look at it from the air, it looks even more strange, the Pyramid complex looks like a technical drawing, a blue print of a circuit. Just look at the entire set up, a series of 7 concentric squares stacked on top of one another like a wedding cake, and a giant crystal rod once stood in the center, made of 30 feet of quartz. It looks like it's some kind of an ancient broadcasting station which was transmitting and receiving radio signals.
Now, we already talked about the giant crystal lingam that was placed on top of the pyramid, but that is not the only lingam that existed in this complex. There was yet another giant lingam placed on the ground level as well. And it is located inside this brick structure, which also looks like a crude pyramid, with a pointed top. As I eagerly approached it and looked inside to see the lingam, again I found that this lingam, the cylinder is also missing. You can see the huge hole in the center, A giant Yoni which once held a lingam. I mean this is just massive, the base alone is 6 feet long, and 6 feet wide. This would have held a gigantic lingam inside. Looking at the size, we can see that this lingam would have also been about 15 feet tall from the ground level. There is no doubt that a giant lingam existed here a thousand years ago, But was this lingam also made of crystal quartz? Is it possible that a second crystal lingam was also placed as a backup for radio transmission and receiving purposes? Most importantly, how did these lingams look? What was the shape of these lingams? I ask this, because Lingams were made in many unique shapes and designs in ancient Cambodia. Normally, we think of Lingams as just cylindrical structures, but Cambodian lingams come in many unique shapes. So, how did these crystal lingams look?
Did they have bumps or unique projections on them? Or did they even have multiple antenna or wire like twists on them? You may think there is no way to find out how these lingams looked since they are gone now, but I found something very interesting. Some Locals refer to this temple as Sahasralinga temple. The current names like Koh Ker, Prasat Prang, etc are all just modern names, but locals reveal that the entire area was originally known as Lingapura and this temple was known as Sahasralinga. Remember, Cambodia has multiple sites which are called Sahasra Linga, I have already shown you two sites, which are underwater. Both are known as Sahasra Linga by locals and both have thousands of Lingams, and the Koh Ker pyramid complex is also sometimes called Sahasralinga.

Hey guys, today I am going to show you a carving in the ancient temple of Angkor Wat in Cambodia, and I have discovered something groundbreaking which proves that ancient builders were using advanced technology, and I hope by the end of this video, you will agree with me.
So, according to mainstream historians and archeologists, the Angkor Wat temple was built about 900 years ago, and the temple was built by a Hindu king who carved thousands of carvings all over the temple walls. Unfortunately, because of 900 years of erosion and corrosion and destruction by humans, a large portion of these carvings have been destroyed. During my visit to Cambodia, I have tried to document these carvings, I have taken pictures of thousands of these carvings, and have been analyzing them with my team and we found something really mind boggling about this carving.
This carving is found at the top façade of one of the buildings, it has undergone not only a significant amount of damage by nature, but human beings have also deliberately defaced this carving. This was originally built as a Hindu temple, but after some time, this temple was taken over by people of different faith, they destroyed the carvings. For example, if you take a look at this figure, this face is cut off, the guy right next to him, that face is gone, and this guy's face is also defaced. So why do people deliberately damage these carvings? And think about this, this is carving is not found on the ground, it is found on top, I would say 15 feet above the ground. So it is not like somebody casually just took a metal rod and hit this a couple of times. Whoever did this, had to use a ladder, climb up and had to damage the faces of them. So, you understand that this kind of destruction was a methodical and a systematic process. But why, would people systematically destroy such amazing carvings?
Because, Each carving tells a story from an ancient text, and if you destroy the carvings, you have destroyed the stories and the information, and you will eventually destroy the religion. So at this point we cannot make out who is who and what is the story.. The only figure we can see in full is the 3 headed elephant, we can clearly see its features and this three headed elephant is called Airavata in Hinduism, and Cambodians call this Erawan, and it is the mount of Lord Indra. Lord Indra is the King of a planet called Devalokha. Now, if we look at the top of this elephant, we can see this guy who is using a device to control the elephant. But this is not Indra, he is just the Mahout controlling the elephant. Indra is shown standing on the body of the elephant, and he is shown in giant stature. So, we have now successfully identified Indra. Strangely Indra is holding a flower in his hand. He should be shown holding weapons, but instead he is shown with a flower. Ok so Lord Indra is carved standing on his celestial elephant, but there is a crucial detail in this carving. Do you see what it is? The key detail here is actually the tail of the elephant, look at the tail, how it is in the air almost parallel to the ground. This indicates that the elephant is running fast. If you have observed elephants, their tails always point down whether they are standing or eating, but when they start running, their tails will come to this position. This means that Lord Indra is going somewhere fast, you can see the soldiers behind him are holding weapons and all these guys are going somewhere. But where are they going? So let's find out. Nearby, you can see another mysterious character, again his face is also deliberately destroyed. So the destroyers are like criminals who destroy the evidence, and we are like Sherlock Holmes trying to find out what is going on.

Preah Vihear - Temple in the Clouds
A magnificent, ancient, temple in the clouds that has been the centre of many years of conflict – That’s Preah Vihear! The subject of mystery, sadness, grandeur and timelessness. No wonder it’s inspired books and movies and been fought over for almost 100 years.
Situated on top of a 525m (1,722 ft) cliff in the Dângrêk Mountains, Preah Vihear was built by Angkorian Kings Suryavarman I and Suryavarman II between 9th–12th centuries AD. The temple complex runs 800m (2,600 ft) along a north–south axis and is located on the Thai Cambodia border, 140 km from Angkor Wat.
In 1904 the border was agreed to largely follow the watershed line of the Dângrêk mountain range, which placed nearly all of Preah Vihear temple on Thailand's side. In 1907, after survey work, a map was drawn to show the border's location. The new topographic map, showed the line deviating slightly from the watershed without explanation in the Preah Vihear area, placing all of the temple on the Cambodian side. This was the map that would be used in the 1962 International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling.
Following the withdrawal of French troops from Cambodia in 1954, Thai forces occupied the temple to enforce their claim. Cambodia protested and in 1959 asked the ICJ to rule that the temple and the surrounding land lay in Cambodian territory. In 1962, following a lengthy, bitter dispute between Cambodia and Thailand over ownership, the International Court of Justice ruled that the temple is in Cambodia.
Even though the Khmer Rouge captured Phnom Penh in April 1975, the Khmer National Armed Forces soldiers at Preah Vihear continued to hold out after the collapse of the Khmer Republic government. The Khmer Rouge captured Preah Vihear Temple in May 1975. It was said to be the last place in Cambodia to fall to the Khmer Rouge. Full-scale war began again in Cambodia in December 1978 when the Vietnamese army invaded to overthrow the Khmer Rouge. Khmer Rouge troops retreated to border areas. Guerrilla warfare continued through the 1980s and 90s, hampering access to Preah Vihear.
The temple opened briefly to the public in 1992, only to be re-occupied again by the Khmer Rouge. The temple opened again to visitors from the Thai side at the end of 1998 as there was no access from Cambodia. Cambodia completed the construction of a long-awaited access road up the cliff in 2003.
On July 7, 2008, Preah Vihear was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Between 2008 and 2013 further conflict was fought over the land to the east and west of the temple (south being previously agreed as Cambodian, north as Thai). This resulted in further damage being done to the temple by gunfire. The ICJ ruled on 11 November 2013 that the land adjacent to the temple on the east and west belonged to Cambodia and that any Thai security forces still in that area should leave.

Hey guys, today we are going to investigate an ancient lingam which is 30 feet tall, yes Three Zero (30) feet tall and is made of transparent crystal. And this lingam is not new, it was created more than a thousand years ago, by Ancient Hindus and placed inside a temple, in the middle of a jungle in Cambodia. And this is the Hindu temple which has that crystal lingam. At first glance, I am surprised because it does not look like a Hindu temple at all, it is eerily similar to the Mayan Pyramids, but archeologists confirm that this is a Hindu temple which was dedicated to Lord Shiva. Archeologists have also found inscriptions which talk about a Massive Lingam placed here.
Normally, I would admire the structure and analyze the size and shape of the Pyramid, but I am cannot wait to see the Crystal Lingam. I realize that the original stairs are completely ruined now and have become unusable, but I think there should be more set of stairs on the other side's as well. But when I began walking around the Pyramid, I realize I am wrong, the original stairs were built only on one side of the Pyramid, and there are no stairs on the other sides, they are all made of solid stone walls.
At the back of the Pyramid, I see a strange ritual being performed. There is a small temple here, Perhaps the lingam is at this place, but when I reach there, I am surprised to see Cambodians worshipping the statue of an Elephant. I ask them where I can see the giant lingam, Cambodians do not speak much English, but they point to the top of the Pyramid.
I find modern wooden stairs which go up the Pyramid, so I begin climbing it. A 30 feet tall lingam made of crystal, installed at the top of an ancient Pyramid ? This would be a spectacular sight to see. The stones of the Pyramid are calling me, they were cut and installed here more than a thousand years ago, but my goal is to lay my eyes on the Giant Crystal lingam.
I finally reach the top, and I am deeply disappointed, because the crystal lingam is not visible, but I see a destroyed temple structure with giant broken carvings. There is just an empty chamber with wooden barriers protecting it. However, something tells me to climb up on these broken stone blocks. This is risky, but I feel like I may find something in this area. And then I find something truly extraordinary. A hole, circular hole, situated exactly in the middle of the Pyramid. Look at the giant walls built all around it, and the remnants of a square base, there was definitely a giant cylindrical lingam placed in this hole. This is not a theory, Archeologists and Historians confirm that a massive lingam was once installed here, and no one knows how it mysteriously vanished.
The Cambodian Government has strictly prohibited anyone from getting any closer, But I need to take a closer look at the hole itself, so I take my zoom lens and climb up to find a vantage point. From some angles, it looks like a shallow hole with only a few feet depth. I try to see it from a different angle, and I could see that the hole was deeper. But when I tried to look at the hole almost from straight up, Look at these pictures I shot, this is not just a hole, this is a deep hole, clearly laid with neatly cut stones which, I mean we cannot even see the end of the hole. How deep is this hole? Is it possible that this hole goes all the way to the bottom of the Pyramid? Egyptian pyramids like the Great Pyramid of Giza have elaborate secret chambers inside the Pyramid. Does this Pyramid also have chambers inside?
In ancient Hindu temples, people still worship Crystal Lingams, these are called Spatika Lingams. I have seen some big Crystal Lingams, but certainly a 30 feet tall transparent lingam would have been one of a kind, making it the largest crystal lingam in the world.
Look at the positioning of the original ancient stairs: 1000 years ago, worshippers would have climbed this pyramid using these stairs and reached the top to see this giant lingam. They would have only seen 15 feet of this lingam, because the rest of it, another 15 feet would go under the floor level.
