The funniest thing to me about the ‘pyramids are 33 latitude and longitude’ thing is that it implies that the Egyptians of the time also defined longitude as degrees east/west of Greenwich, England. For some reason lmao Shows just how little thought ‘skeptic’ has actually put into this crap

Greg brought all of this on himself. No need to feel bad for him. I remember way back when he started out. He started strong, but was fighting depression due to loneliness (if I recall his own statements from back then). You wanted to root for the guy. He had some actually good skeptic content, and he seemed like a genuine person. But, the instant he gained a following and got with Shoe, he "became" a complete douche. He's that nerdy kid in middle school who got a modicum of popularity, it immediately went to his head, and became an insufferable pos.

And I agree that he was this nerdy dude got some fame and cute chick and thought well I'm just the fucking sickest dude ever. But dudes always been strange to me I just use to enjoy the religious content he made back in the day shitting on creationism. It seems so weird how we all got so interested in wanting to demolish these religious arguments at the same time and now we pretty much just all understand that shit is just too fucking easy and yeah religion is still shit but it's just a different time for us. I'm rambling but it just always seemed weird how we all went through this phase of super atheists then watched the shit heads go to the right wing and we're just chillin. Lol

This s*** is insane by regular person standards, but to hear it coming from a former atheist, one who used to debunk this kind of pseudoscientific/spiritual bs on the regular and who actually helped me get out of this very mindset when I started down the road to atheism... it's just downright tragic. It was bad enough when he started leaning more towards the anti-sjw content, but seeing what AS is now is less like watching a train wreck and more like seeing the wreck of the Titanic (which Greg probably also has some conspiracy theory about, wouldn't surprise me).

Oh boy that Sphinx thing really got me- Like the reason the lower layer is bricked up is because for the last 3k years people have been trying to save it from eroding. The reason it has three "layers" is because the head was a rock that was already above the sand before the Egyptians started quarrying stone, the second layer is where they were cutting out stone, and the last one was where people have been placing tiles to try to protect it from erosion. It's all a continuous piece of limestone.

If you watched all his content (and I did because it was entertaining in a car crash way) including his alternative channels he talks at length, and I mean at excruciating length on every topic, about how the "skeptic" character was an invention and didn't represent his views. He claims the skeptic character was far more right wing than he is and that he is left of centre, that the skeptic character was the atheist while he was raised in a cult (not kidding) but then got out of it and later came back to the ideas of religion but refused to be a part of religion. Most of this series of his boils down to his idea that the basic concepts depicted in ancient religion had some real world basis that is badly described and related because the people back then were too dumb to understand what they were experiencing. So his whole apocalypse idea is that there is something like a planet with a massive orbit taking it outside the solar system and every 12k years it passes through the system close to the sun which causes "plasma storms" or something which bombard our planet causing an apocalypse. That the Ancient people saw this happen but didn't have any understanding of what it was and it nearly wiped us out destroying most of the people and civilizations. This is where the "green man" or Jesus imagery comes from, that the planets aurora took a form of a squatting man and people related that to being a god and the stories and imagery left behind by it is a message about the coming return of this planet that will cause devastation. His other channel however shows how he actually believes a lot of the ghost and paranormal stuff, hes done ghost hunts and did entire videos where he would just read viewers stories about aliens or weird encounters. My opinion is that he has always held these beliefs, the cult turned him away from religion and to see it as evil but the concepts he always accepted as true, the whole above story about a planet causing an apocalypse is his attempt to make his beliefs fit reality and he will use anything that even slightly supports his beliefs as if its clearly proven. His skeptic character was never a true reflection of him, it was as he said an invention, an exaggerated version of himself that helped him explore his beliefs and acted as a shield to stop him going back towards his beliefs that were caused by his cult like upbringing. Then the anti-feminist and skeptic community stopped being profitable so he pivoted to covering conspiracy theories, covid happened which caused his break up with shoe (if you listen to him she wanted to stay in us and him in Canada till it was over and it just kept going so they grew apart) and his flirtation with conspiracy lead him to rekindle his beliefs till the point they took over his entire brain. Back when the history is a lie series started he said he was challenging his audience to prove him wrong, the reality was he was asking his audience to please stop him from falling down the rabbit hole somehow. Now it has gone so far he is chastising his audience for not loving and understanding the greatness of his ideas more, he sounds more and more like a cult leader trying to create a following that will hand their critical faculties at the door and simply accept him as a messiah figure. He has gone full circle back to his cultish upbringing and is incredibly manipulative in the way he tries to get his audience to fawn over him and thank him for revealing gods truth to them, its bonkers. I had to stop watching, it stopped being entertaining and became legitimately horrific. I did see about six months ago he made all his videos private and left a comment saying "none of you deserve what I have given you" or something to that effect. Again cult like behaviour and incredibly abusive and manipulative, and once his fans gave him the love he felt he deserved and begged him he brought the videos back and put out a statement about how his channel wasn't getting enough views and most of them were demonetized and he wasn't going to be able to keep this going for much longer, unspoken is (unless you pay me through patreon) which again, cult like behaviour. I kind of thought at the beginning he was trying to fake being an alex jones type to draw in believers in conspiracy bullshit to slowly reveal they believed bullshit, the reverse seems to be true as its far too late for him to pull off a mask and say haha I was just fing with you.

Right from the start I can tell this guy has no clue about what he is talking about. When he said "all these precious metals are in electronics because of their conductivity", it made me cringe. Gold isn't used for conductivity. It's used to coat contact surfaces, because it doesn't oxidize. And it's used in chip bonding, because it is soft and can be made into extremely thin wires. Silver has a high conductivity, but it's too expensive for conductors. It's only used as a replacement for lead in modern solder paste.

I have a degree in history with a particular interest in the kind of stuff shown at 41:50 and some understanding of Latin. I thought I'd try and see what I can make out of that one page. I did use Google Translate, but it seems to be quite good with Latin these days. An important term here is "meteora ignita" on the page. This literally translates to "fiery meteors", but from my brief research what it means is more along the lines of "fiery meteorological phenomena". It means atmospheric and weather phenomena that seem to emit energy, such as lightning, wisps, shooting stars and northern lights. "Eiusmodi ignitum meteorum est fulmen." This I would translate as "such is the fiery meteorological phenomenon of lightning". My semi-professional opinion is that this is a text theorizing how lightning happens, and the explanation it presents is that it is caused by a reaction of volatile chemicals floating in clouds. The lines and towers are about how lightning tends to strike at tall buildings. For where he gets the "love" part is at the bottom of the page "magno fragore ex carum cavitate". Now, "carum" can mean "love". However, I think here it is used as an adjective, which would be something like "dear" or "expensive". So I would translate that snippet of text as more along the lines of "with a great explosion from highly enriched cavity". So if I understand this correctly, it posits that the aforementioned chemicals cause a buildup energy that is somehow contained at the middle of the cloud, until it finally bursts out as lightning.
@ItsThatKidGreg
@ItsThatKidGreg Год назад
No disrespect to your field but your explanation doesn't seem to match the imagery in that book. It also doesn't explain the weird towers and stuff Skeptic shows off. A dead language leaves a lot of context lost to time, so I think there's more to that then just explaining lightning. But its hard to say without more access to the source of those scans
@Crowley9
@Crowley9 Год назад
@@ItsThatKidGreg I would be interested in hearing further elaboration in how you think it does not match. I will provide here a fuller translation of the text starting from "Eiusmodi ignitum meteorum est fulmen." I will leave "meteora ignis" untranslated, as it is such a specific term and I already explained it above. Honestly the author's sentence structure is convoluted as all hell and I try to clean it up to a reasonable degree. I fully admit there are things here I do not understand, but I do not see how I could be far off the mark: "Such is the _ignitum meteorum_ of lightning: There is nitrous and sulphur in the upper clouds A, descending with great pressure on the lower part B and its extremities C and D. Because of the air pressure they are intercepted and closed off by converging towards B, which forms a path of little resistance due to the short distance. They are separated by agitation of the violent vapors which are then ignited, and with a great crash it erupts out of the enriched cavity E through G or F." As for your point about the language, Latin is not a dead language. Even if it was, we know how the grammar works and what the vocabulary is, and it has been extensively researched how it has changed over time. Then there's the more specialized field of the history of science. When someone writes about "sulphur" and "nitrous" in Latin four hundred years ago, we have a very good idea what they mean.

heres a real reason for the shiny metals being sought after, especially for royal and money useages. they are very low reactive metals. meaning they tarnish the least. so 1 a gold coin will be shinier than an iron one longer, but a 1 pound chunk of gold will weigh 1 pound longer than a 1 pound iron chunk because the iron is literally be eaten away by the oxygen in the air into rust so societies that last centuries had enough time to realize that the gold units lasted longer than the tin or aluminum ones did. so maybe when they put it on obelisks it was a combo of shiny and would stay shiny for a long time and they wouldn't have to send someone up to polish

I bailed on him when he first started uncritically regurgitating ghost hunter shit, then half-assedly "debunking" it. Now mind you, I'm a pagan who believes ghosts are real... (I know, BOO!!!) but there's a notable difference between the camp of philosophy, UPG/SPG/VPG, and being fascinated by the lore and how it teaches valuable life lessons... and wholeheartedly swallowing the antics of provable con artists. Basically, simply put, I worship a trickster god and even I think Greg is full of woo-woo bullshit.

I may not agree with a lot of your takes about politics and that's fine, but I can certainly agree that Greg fell of a deep end so deep that he's yet to see the bottom he will inevitably hit. I suspect he might play it all of as "this was just an elaborate troll" when he finally hits that bottom, which I do believe is going be quite entertaining for everybody to watch as he's gonna debunk himself debunking the reality. Reaching the levels of irony that should not be even possible... Anyway, cheers.

Tesla coils run on AC so the field they produce would propagate in a wave pattern but the term "electricity waves" is inaccuarte. The idea that you could highly increase the range by tuning the frequency to resonate within the athmosphere isn't completely ridiculous either but it's based on a simplistic view of physics.

Around GG I started to notice Greg had a very inconsistent/incoherent worldview that didn't comport with the underlying principles of skepticism, much like Carl, like they were both 'smart' as an affect, and not a result of any actual intellectual prowess. Assume the crazy is true, why would the tesla tower and shape of the sphinx structure have anything to do with one another? They're completely differently oriented and a tesla tower on its side would just be grounded.

I tried finding that illustration at the end on my own and had no luck, so i went to his video, and of course he doesn't lisst the name or artist anywhere. But someone in his comments have the name. "Fireworks Display Presented to the King and Queen by the City of Paris for the Birth of the Dauphin" (1782) - Jean-Michel Moreau le Jeune. It's fireworks. The image is a late 18th century artist's interpretation of FIREWORKS.

I LOATHE Tesla worship. Tesla wasn't even all that revolutionary for his day. He was on the cutting edge, but so was everyone else we know of from his circle. He didn't invent AC current. He didn't have ANY beef with Thomas Edison, but he hated Einstein and publicly threw shade at him, calling the Theory of Relativity "metaphysics." He didn't believe subatomic particles (you know, the stuff electricity is made of). The FBI did take his paperwork after he died, but not because he was magically. They were in the middle of WW2 and they hoped Tesla has some ideas that could help the war effort. He didn't, and you can see ALL of that paperwork in his museum, where his nephew put it after the US Government gave it back to him with an apology. Nothing people thing of Tesla from today is even remotely accurate, and that goes double for these new age "Tesla was trying to give me free energy" assholes. Oh, and did I mention he was a raging misogynist and eugenicist? Because he was.

If memory serves me right, they would fare alright, not much more likely to be hurt than anyone else. The tower's actual transmission capability wasnt great, and most of the energy went up into the atmosphere. You would probably just feel constantly like you were touching one of those static lightning globes that were popular in the early 2000s. Raised hairs but not much else
