  1. For an advanced species they sure do crash a lot.
    746
  2. Now do one about Burn Pits. Governments and militaries everywhere do some dastardly deeds to their own troops and civilian populations.
    375
  3. Pretty much everything about Chernobyl freaks me out.
    175
  4. That island where Terrible Tilly is sounds Lovecraftian. And Varosha sounds like it would be a perfect place for people doing post-apocalypse movies and videos.
    172
  5. When in doubt, blame Russia or the CIA.
    93
  6. "6 Psychic Soldiers, UFOs, and a Ouija Board" sounds like the start of either a really good story or a very silly joke.
    71
  7. In Russia, Czarist treasure buries you!
    45
  8. I wondered for a long time if we could use some strains of mycelium as building materials, fuel sources, or other renewable resources. Very cool to see all the people who told me I was nuts or weird proved wrong. What's weird is life itself.

  9. If they're concerned about mass or weight or such things then wouldn't an all little person crew be the best choice? And if it's going to Mars the ship could appropriately be named the Red Dwarf. 🎶It's cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere🎶

  10. "Phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range." "Hey, just what you see, pal!"
    27
  11. These puns are going to make me have a meltdown.
    22
  12. I know I'm a weirdo who is in the minority about this but I kind of like it. I think it's interesting to see how new tech is used when it comes along. For me, I don't feel like the audio content of the stories from Dark 5 is suffering. And like you said, the images sure have made the videos creepier.
    22
  13. "OH GOD, NOOOOOOO!" if you know you know.
    16
  14. I never saw any of the pre-narration videos other long-time viewers talk about so maybe I don't know what I was missing but these are great!

  15. “If aliens ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn't turn out very well for the Native Americans.” --Stephen Hawking

  16. and billionaires. The "elite" always try to save themselves at the expense of everyone else.

  17. I wouldn't want to be stuck in any cave. They're cool to explore, but being stuck in one would be terrifying!

  18. The first one - sometimes a 19th century hammer is just a 19th century hammer. Nothing all that dark or mysterious about it. (or any of the others. The one that turned out to be a spark plug gave me a good laugh.)
    10
  19. That first story - should have included a more context about the way the Apache and other tribal people were treated by the US military and settlers to help understand why they responded the way the did. White captives were treated much better in many cases than the other way around.
    10
  20. The whole Dulce Base story and idea is one of my favorite bits of UFO lore.
    9
  21.  @Pixiiex  That's a weirdly aggressive bit of abuse.

  22. Scary the lengths some people will go to maintain the status quo.

  23. “There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” Hamlet

  24. He was young enough that he was made a part of the tribe. Life was hard for all the Apache with the way they were treated by US forces and settlers.

  25. As a student of US Western history there were more than a few statements and descriptions in this that didn't sit well with me.
    7
  26.  @savatete4161  Definitely the aliens.
    7
  27.  @niagarawarrior9623  and robots ... lots of robots.

  28. "Some have suggested that the US govt may even be responsible. Certain subreddits and forums where discussions of this possibility were being had have since been taken down and banned." Well, that's not suspicious at all./s

  29. Funny how the "experts" keep getting proven wrong about things.

  30. Nobody is making you watch. If some AI images make you that upset you should probably stick with podcasts.

  31. It was a really good one. I get why you left the intro off - thanks for the explanation.

  32. Yeesh! The future is here and it's got frickin laser beams!
    5
  33. I've known people who argue "I can't see how that would be possible" when arguing against something theoretical and I just think to myself how that's self-evidently obvious. The pride some take in putting their lack of imagination on public display is an odd thing.
    5
  34. Ignore the people whining about using AI imagery - You're real fans are here for the story.
    5
  35. The 747-AAC was a wild idea!
    5
  36. I've always thought there could have been individuals or groups of people that reached parts of the eastern and/or western Americas at a various times -- even more so when ocean levels were lower during the last ice age.

  37. Nothing mysterious about the first three. That's oligarchical Capitalism for you, baby! "Free? FREE? What are you, some kind of Communist? Other than as an abstract idealistic concept, we don't do free around here".

  43. All praise Moloch - HAIL THE MOLOCHSTER!

  44.  @rtyrsson  "You're no fun anymore". --Monty Python (which is all the more appropriate to this video as that episode is the one where invaders from another galaxy turn Englishmen into Scotsmen.)

  45. If you say so. I don't think the use of some AI generated images makes the stories any worse, and for me it's the stories that make the channel superb. That hasn't changed.

  46. $$$$$ is the cause of much of the blindness and stupidity in the world. There's also an element of immediate gratification and expediency that plays a role.

  47. Part of the reason is that a comet or asteroid is not already in a stable orbit around the Earth, meaning it has a higher potential to be effected by Earth's gravity when it passes close by, while the orbiting debris is already balanced by the Earth's gravitational pull and maintains its stable path around the planet. There are other factors at play as well like the comparative mass of the objects, distances, etc. - celestial mechanics are complicated.

  48. Always love a good Art Bell story. I really wonder what was happening with that one. There are so many crazy stories about interdimensional aliens and conspiracies and cover ups that I just don't know what to think about it all. It sure does fraking freak me out though.
    3
  49. I've got a few more problems than that one. Seems like there was a bit of a bias against him in this video. Lazar is a polarizing figure, though, so not a huge surprise.

  50. The American West was and continues to be a wild place.

  51. "needed to be civilized" - way to tell us just how broken you are.

  52. "All of this has happened before. All of this will happen again" --Number Six. But also both the opening from the 1953 Peter Pan Movie by Disney "All this happened before, and it will happen again. But this time it happened in London." as well as Ecclesiastes 1:9 (depending on the translation), "What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun".

  53. I got nothing.

  54. I was kind of confused by your comment until I realized you meant "defund". Hooray for my public school education ... and libraries! Loves me a public library! Hooray Red Stripe too.

  55. Always wanted the Dulce Base stories to be real but that's life.
    2
  56. I was wondering about that too, but the answer would probably be depressing.

  57.  @wombatburrito5896  Not funny. The way our politicians are dividing us is gross. Be best and don't buy into the BS. Together we stand - divided we fall.
    2
  58. Thank you! All the hate on AI generated imagery is silly. Sure, sometimes it doesn't work well, but for me it was fine in this video. At least Dark 5 isn't using copyrighted images someone else created and not paying anyone for them.
    2
  59. @ And a lack of imagination is just that - a lack of imagination. For me, I don't believe being unable (or unwilling) to consider the possibility of things that are neither fact nor reality at this point in time is something of which to be proud. Like the OP wrote, "It's amazing that we've progressed as far as we have with these people existing."
    2
  60. Wait...(8:09) a young Barack Obama? To quote da man his self, "come on now, people!" -- It's something like that when they really loose me. It's so silly I fully expect some British colonel showing up and stopping the sketch. Well, nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition either.

  61. The plastics problem is going to be our lasting legacy even after we're gone.

  62. FEAR THE CRABCAT!!

  63. Poor little tortoises.

  64. I hope these places become museums to the hubris and greed of these rich ashholes and their names are reviled for generations to come.
    2
  65.  @K_a_r_l_o_s  I believe they call that an "investment opportunity" in the boardrooms. The US government is one of the best kaksitocracies money can buy - just like it's supposed to be.
    2
  66. Most people will believe all manner of nonsense - just look to the religious beliefs of billions of people. Desperate people are even more vulnerable to disinformation, misinformation, and lies. And many people are living lives of desperation for many different reasons.
    2
  67. Good call. There are other examples that are poorly kept secrets, but Wright Paterson is a big one.

  68. "There are those who believe that life here began out there... with tribes of humans... who may have been the forefathers of the Egyptians... or the Toltecs... or the Mayans"

  69. You don't even have to go all that deep before it doesn't matter if it's day or night. The difference with the cave is at least you can still breathe.

  70. You also can't spell enterAIning without AI. well you could, but then those words wouldn't be spelled correctly, eh? eh? eh? A wink's as good as a nod.

  71.  @StuartAnderson-xl4bo  Like I wrote, "there are other factors at play as well" of which spin and speed would be factors. And obviously any object at the closest point of its orbit around or passage past another object is going to be pulled closer to that object due to it's gravitational pull. And if the pull is strong enough the object will become captured by that objects gravity and either plunge into the object or become trapped in that objects gravitational orbit. But there are also objects which have a mostly stable orbit, other than having to account for atmospheric drag or the effects of other celestial bodies, and that's what I was referring to when I used the term "stable orbit".

  72. No doubt - it's totally disconcerting.

  73.  @augustsmith9553  not TV - video games.

  79. A mostly sad collection of Final 5s. But well presented.

  80. As long as governments keep secrets the citizens of those governments and non-citizens alike will be hurt. The victims we know about are only the tip of the iceberg.

  81. "It could only be driven in reverse" - 🤣🤣🤣

  82. I love the ocean, or any body of water, but only from the shore and only for a a vacation. No desire to go into or on the water for the reason you stated and others. But the look of it, the way it sounds, the food that comes out of it and the stories we tell about it are all wonderful things.

  83. On that map there is a concentration of earthquakes in Oklahoma where they have been doing large amounts of fraking fore a while now. I know the saying about correlation and causation, but in this case I suspect one thing does lead to another.

  84. It's not a bad idea to drive vehicles that are more analog.

  85. The Sandown Clown - because kids never make up stories.

  86. No certain connection. There is evidence of some possible trading having happened between the two groups, but no serious cultural influence between them.

  87. Yes - and so were George Bush Sr and several other parasites - I mean presidents.

  88. They also showed Bush Senior and several other presidents.

  90. What are you doing letting hippies sit on your couch?

  91. @ Mostly, yes. I probably should have added the attribution, but I figured if people knew they knew.

  92. 6:00 - that local official is clueless if "he's never heard of this issue before". The Taos hum goes back to the early 90's and is a widely known, well documented phenomenon.

  93. Or a framed in door on hinges.

  94. "Responsible capitalism" - there's an oxymoron if I've ever heard one.

  97. There wasn't any other way to get it from the New World back to Europe in those days. Ships were all they had.

  99.  @FurBurger151  Advanced? No jet packs, no flying cars, no moon colonies or orbiting hotels, and don't get me started on the health care - we're still pulling people teeth out of their mouths FFS! We're a bunch of semi-intelligent apes who can't even control fire very well. The only things we're really advanced at have to do how we kill each other or watch each other fornicate. Okay, I'm being kind of sarcastic but not by much.
