Hello NG, I know you probably will not see this, but lost cities is one of my favorite running series i have ever seen and it is a joy to have them free on youtube. PLEASE continue posting these. It can be hard to find joy in such an unforgiving world, and it might be silly, but this provides me that joy.
The story is awesome, they did a good job putting it together. But I'm sure you can do better. Save up and in a few years go off the tracker. Go explore a brutal forest, examine data, explore ruins.
Content is interesting... the host is great... however the overly dramatic music at every turn is a bit over the top. NG you don't need to do that to keep our attention.
Yep,sensationalism. That what sells.
Well drama makes the ratings, to bad NG has sold his soul to the devil....shame on u....
@@maurimat I agree that the music is overdone, but i think your condemnation of NG is, too. Just sayin'....
It's fun to me that I'm not alone hearing the soundtrack! The worst is Scott Wolters shows! But by the same token, we commenting are recognizing the effect of the music, and I am not offended by Mr. Lin getting some fanfare. If others less sensitive just get a little more "buzz," that's a good thing for the serious content.
It might be to pull in younger viewers 🤔
The fact that we get free documentaries on KZhead by National Geographic is truly a gift; keeping the education and knowledge alive. 👏👏👏 May I also remind you of the fact that our Native American population in our motherland, the Continent of America before the European Colonizers arrived, was around 15 millions, while the European population in their motherland, the Continent of Europe was around 25 millions. Today, Native American population is 15 million, while the European population, in the Continents of America + Europe, is a staggering TWO BILLION! A shockingly sad truth. 😔 In my humble opinion, it's about time to decolonize the Colonized lands, and return to rightful owners Native American people. Notorious global cardinal crimes the Christian West has committed, and benefited a great deals, such as Slavery & Colonialism had long been over, why on earth is notorious Colonization still lingering on, may I ask? 😔
Much better than the History Channel, too!
@@CharlieEarthRoast There is no comparison. The "history" channel is just sensational "junk food"... though I think I heard that the owners of history channel bought National Geographic....I really hope I'm mistaken about that.
If you think Christians are bad, try living under Islam.
Albert Lin in the House and we are all immersed in awe with the best possible scenario of bringing back old legends into reality
He doesn't mess around.
Good for your house! I am age 71, and was fortunate to grow up in a house that subscribed to NG and had a couple of sets of the Time-Life books about what was then known about ancient civilization. My curiosity has never faded, to follow the discoveries back, and farther back, in time.
One of the greats, Albert Len Wu bringing us back to the historic epic tales of old. Thank you, Blessings
Absolutely amazing...its so marvelous...as someone who studies anthropology and history, I get such a thrill from seeing what archeology finds...and the whole world has legends and myths, stories in every language and tribe of a universal flood. Keep it up!
Albert Lin documentaries just hit different 👍
Couldn’t agree more 👏👏👏👏👏
Shallow?
The Natives of the Americas believed in a Great Flood as well. There is a great story in Oregon about a canoe that landed on the side of Mot. Hood and the shape of it can still be seen =)
Very Cool 😎 thank you for sharing that information. I will honestly look it up now LoL 😂😆
Not the Abrahamic flood.
Wow! Amazing 👏 🙀 Thanks for inviting Albert Yu-Min Lin to host this! I feel the passion and excitement , too!❤ The first in eight thousand years!
he actually has a whole series here =) Benn loving it!!!!
@@jadedjhypsi Ive been patiently waiting for more seasons from Albert. Really enjoy his shows!
LETS GO FINALLY ALBERT LIN AGAIN !
Thank you Albert Lin for this so wonderful mesmerizing documentary ❤
In approximately 6500 bce, the coast of Norway had a huge landslide that flooded & decimated Doggerland by tsunamis, turned the Great Britian into an island with the tsunamis eradicating the lands nearby & created the North Sea. That's a flood!
The flood myths could all just be stories passed on for generations about the end of the ice age. We're still passing them on today!
@@lost_porkchop Absolutely. Unfortunately, the Doggerland slide is verified. Neolithic tools, extinct animal bones & other items are brought up by fishing trawlers betweenNorway & Scotland. If you're interested in archaeological programs, go to utuber Reijer Zaijjer's channel and click onward til you reach Time Team , hit Playlist & there are shows about the unique history of the UK & other countries, from Spain down to the island of Nevis in Carribean. You can also youtube Doggerland & see the history of it that includes additional theories of glacial melt bursting thru to the ocean, raising levels. No religion involved. Cheers!
And how do you know this happened were you there lol everything about history is speculation we know nothing lol that's why every few years what they said changes. If it was known they wouldn't change what they say about what happened every few years grab a brain you goof.
@@lost_porkchop except they arent myths
@@mottthehoople693 right.....
Please Albert, go to Lake Van, in Turkey and explore for us all
Nat G is taking over History while the History Channel talks about big foot. 😂
History channel is all about Aliens nowadays
And racist duck hunters
Albert Lin is one of my absolute favorite explorers and I’d love to meet him and just talk for hours! He humanizes all cultures.
I adore this show! Albert's enthusiasm inspired me so very much!❤❤❤❤❤
There was a build up of ice on both poles so flood stories on both sides of earth is a definite YES
Hi there, flood means Almighty God is Alpower .😮
I really love watching Albert lin geographic adventures 💯
I love too watch this tipe of documentaireserie thanks you so much ❤❤❤
Albert Lin is the best, more please.
I was fine with you talking about the Great Flood and the Black Sea, I've always thought the Great Flood was related to the last ice age and the flooding of the Black Sea area. But connecting "El Niño" to the Flood is just: Stretching the Documentary!
Your correct, El Nino is recent.
Not necessarily
Yeah, El Nino is localized and could not explain a global phenomenon.
The whole documentary is stretching.
El Nino can't operate when half the planet is covered in ice.
Finally, Some Surf! Thats Awesome! Seen the Board in other episodes. Peru is on my dream wave list. Keep the Great Adventures coming.
My dude has a lot of talents; rock climbing, surfing, diving, LIDAR expert, archaeologist, etc. Is there anything he can't do?
Such an interesting documentary ! Great job Albert Lin !
Nicely presented by Lin, and provocative .
Albert Lin is my new fave person. ✨✨
Love me some Albert and lost cities!!!
The sandstone artifact ... it reminds me of those stone vases and other stone items found at Sakkara. They were made with modern-day precision; some say better than modern-day. See Uncharted X.
Fabulous series.
It stands to reason that when some of the polar ice caps and all of the ice sheets/glaciers melted at the end of the last Ice Age/ Younger Dryass, ALL of the oceans levels rose around the world. Margaret Mead, the famous sociologist, recognized that back in the 1960s.
thank you
Albirt Lyn one of the most renowned surfers of the world surfed across the pacific from the Mediterranean all the way to Peru!
The Mediterranean isn't connected to the Pacific...
Amazing documentary ❤
Love core samples 😎
Thank you very much
my fave show this year!
I love this show
Best doco presenter since Sir David. 🙏🙂 Albert
In 1996, I lived in northern California. An El Niño year, saw 12" of rain in a 10 hour period (over 30" in 6 days)that flooded Hwy 70 & the Feather River Canyon, erasing settlements, campgrounds & bridges. Two years until the road opened again. Thanks, Niño...
During the Mariel Boatlift, 27" of rain fell on Key West in under 20 hours.
@@sallyreno6296 Can't even imagine that ! One wonders how you could breathe ! Almost like being under water... Thanks for the info..our planet is always giving us surprises. Cheers...
@@maeve4686 That's why most Keys houses are built on stilts. And back then, most folks had a small boat in the yard. Still and all, that's lots of rain....
The Chimú of Chanchan recorded the magnetic flip of the earth
I heard last pole reversal was around 7 or 8 hundred thousand years ago
@@steventhompson399 42,000 years ago.
Tottaly amazing
This is well worth watching ..
I want this vehicle in the opening scene. Heck, I want the opening scene.
I heartily agree!
...ALBERT LIN= LEGEND
A story so powerful, I had to SURF about it!! ... thank you Albert Lin!! 😂😂🏄🏻♂🏄🏻♂🏄🏻♂❤❤
History always repeats itself.
albert youre my role model !! ...scuba diving with 1 leg ..awesome godbless
Albert Lin is my ideal weekly date.. this dude rocks!
my favorite National Geographic program with Albert Lin
I LOVE HISTORY!!😊
More full episodes with Albert please
I loved it.
Amazing!!!
I think the making of this took a lot of "doing". I find it interesting and thought provoking. Mr. Lin has many talents and is a searcher like a lot of us. True there are writings in many languages,oral stories but many details that can only be looked for. I really like seeing physical evidence. There are things that can be taken by pure faith but seeing only reinforces the real. Chan chan I had never seen,amazing. How could a society that intelligent believe sacrificing their children would stop anything. I actually think it was because of something else that nothing to do with natural elements. I think he did a great job,we still have much to learn. I enjoyed it,Thank you Mr.Lin. Keeping my eyes,ears and mind open!😊
There is nothing meaningful here tobexpkain The universal flood. The huacos are the regular floods that occur in any mountain, being in Switzerland or any place along the Andes mountain or else. The Noah's flood is something else. Why we find sea shells on the top of the Andes mountains?
The huacos are waters that run downward. The universal flood are ruso g waters to the top of the mountains. That is not difficult to figure out.
Extremely important
Bringing back the reality ❤
Mr. Lin, You should visit Dwaraka in India. This city submerged with great floods. Hope You find something here
I love Albert Lin
show me you rep SD without saying you rep SD. Big up Lin for bringing a Mcallum bonzer to Peru and even bigger up for showing the world what determination looks like. Haven't finished the video yet but curious if he will credit hancock and others that have been pointing to a global flood story for years. Keep rocking Albert!
There's a good reason there are flood stories in every culture. Most camps/villages were close to a fresh water source. Rivers flood. Often. When a 100 year storm comes along it's gonna wipe out everything in its path. We know there was massive flooding from ice dams breaking, but there would have been a ton of local floods from the getgo as well, due to normal weather patterns.
Right - 30% of the surface of earth is land surrounded by 70% of water. It's only natural and most likely that somebody somewhere is facing a flood.
No way, it was an ancient apocalypse dude, not normal weather, it was a catastrophe caused by comets and the younger dryas, Atlantis was destroyed, I heard Graham Hancock talk about it so it must be true [Sarcasm] Seriously though yeah you're probably right
Floods happen all over the world and at many different times. To the ancient people who experienced these floods it was memorable. That doesn't mean they were all the same event.
Flint Dibble is punching air right now
There are overtones of Noah's flood in this video that border on sensational. If mountains still projected above flood levels, then there was sufficient land to make an Ark superfluous. Further, a mass balance consideration will show that in earth's closed system, rain must evaporate from seas that are concurrently replenished by this rain.
I really love your show. Thank you for proving climate change has been ongoing since the Younger Dryas and that extreme weather events have always happened! Great job
That is known for decades now.
Albert Lin has GOT to be the best documentary host of the current generation - LOVE him!!!
Wow, a big ol "what if" documentary that dead ends.
I am waiting for your next trip to this site
Albert Lin is the best! Thank you Albert
I find it fascinating that a culture that knew so much about how the planets and stars behaved, could know so little about how their own planet planet behaved. These acts make The Spanish Inquisition look tame.
If glaciers melted at the same time 10,000 years ago, it makes sense different cultures had flood stories.
Thanks sir Mr Albert for showing great mega flood
True Lily fascinating
Yall need to take a trip to the scablands in the pacific northwest.
Didn't even hear a mention of the Younger Dryas.
I was wondering about that lack of acknowledgement too. Surely not an oversight but perhaps there's a political and/religious agenda behind that.
That was fun
Over half way through and no mention of the epic of Gilgamesh
It's been done. There's lots of other stories to be explored.
0:30 “using the latest technologies…” while driving a classic analog LR Defender 😂
Good video 🆙🆙®️💥🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠☄️
Albert Lin is going to be in every shot..😮
I don't think it's a big mystery why there's tales of great waves and dangerous floods in an area that's seen like 20 tsunamis.
How about showing less of Albert looking around, Albert driving a car, Albert looking at his computer, Albert…????
I'm sure Graham Hancock would love watch this
Gone Are the Days When We Were Clued To The TV Watching National Geographic.
Me encantas Lin, låstima que no hablo inglés 😩 😭
Origins of the great flood 😊 Origins of consciousness ☠️
How did the annual rainy season turn into flood myths?
I'd argue origins of consciousness when humanity controlled fire. It was a gift and a curse, to suddenly hold more time, create more time. More time to do, to wake, to *think* that's why Lucifer bore light. Prometheus risked themselves to give light to humanity.
1st - it an odd assumption that Ice caps melted fast enough for sea levels to "surge" overnight rather than a more gradual rise 2nd - studies of Black Sea sediment near the Bosporus Strait shows flooding occurred over about 30 -50 years - not in a singular event 3rd - there is absolutely no indication that various flood myths are talking about a singular event - Humans tend to settle near water where floods are common.
How did it take them 30 years to find a plate and they were still funded? Genuine question.
All hail Albert Lin
Brian Forester tested DNA of Paracus people of Peru, and they came from around Baltic Sea region originally......so maybe not a different cataclysm.
Good point!
39:58 i was thinking what a cool ruins, look at that ARCH! then no one on the show is excited at all and i realized it the glare on the screen! doesnt it look cool tho?! 40:23 hahahahah
Hey Lin, if time permits check out a known lost pyramid city underwater off the west coast of Cuba, NG bought the rights to the discovery, but I've seen nothing about it, something tells me this city underwater is the Maya ancestors of old, or maybe their a link to Atlantis, because of the period this city was above the waves.
Wow, amazing. Flood stories exist along coasts and rivers all around the world. I wonder if volcano stories exist around volcanoes around the world? Or earthquake stories around fault lines around the world? It's a mystery
The goddess Pele for volcanoes in Hawaii. And Hawaii existing in general The Norse had Loki thrashing in pain to explain earthquakes
@@icarusbinns3156 I know, that's the point. I was being facetious. The show mentioned a few different flood myths and stated they must come from somewhere. Then he meets up with this guy in the Mediterranean Sea that thinks he has found a sunken civilization, and they heavily imply that if they find evidence of this civilization, then they have found evidence of the biblical flood and it would prove the 'original' myth and all other flood myths come from here. My point is, people who live near large bodies of water have flood myths. People who live near volcanoes have volcano myths. People who live in quake-prone areas have earthquake myths. It's not a mystery, the flood myths come from experiencing local floods. Not an global flood where 7 people in the Mediterranean survive and repopulate the earth.
He’s the greatest isn’t he. I think I’ve seen everything he’s done
I would interpret the fish going in then going out as a tsunami, no? Especially in Peru on the ring of fire That's not to say there wasn't El Nino floods too, but I don't know if the mural is related.
After watched this video, i have a question in my mind. Had any Civilization been lived at Sundaland before it's drowning into the sea?? 🤔
Poor children.. as informational as this was, it was very sad. 🥺
❤❤❤❤
The floods in America are almost the same time. Around 8-10k years ago. The coast lines today are not the ice age coastline.
In NW Romania they found a grave with 7ooo y old gold, so it's clear that it was a developt civilization here.
