00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:06.440
Very good night and all of you
are welcome to tales of the dark side

2
00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:12.439
from very ancient times, practically since
human beings made themselves to sea. I

3
00:00:12.519 --> 00:00:20.239
don' t know at what time
there have been stories about wild monsters and

4
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:29.679
terrible animals capable of devouring whole boats
with all their crew members. Tales of

5
00:00:29.839 --> 00:00:43.960
the dark side, faults strange beings
event is inexplicable stories that other minds prefer

6
00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:58.079
ignorant dors. For many of these
products of ignorance, fear, superstition.

7
00:01:00.560 --> 00:01:03.760
But those are the terms with which
this kind of story has always been described.

8
00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:11.079
The result of ignorance, the result
of fear of the sea, has

9
00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:17.560
a certain reason. Let' s
understand that those people threw themselves into the

10
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:22.920
open sea into those same seas that
we have today only mounted on Nutshells.

11
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:29.359
If today our gigantic oil ships and
in general, the huge freighters we have

12
00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:36.200
sink in front of the storms,
imagine what it would have been like to

13
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:41.640
jump into the sea mounted in a
wooden boat with a few candles that barely

14
00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:48.000
stood in the middle of a gale. Obviously, little would have remained of

15
00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:55.079
those sailors and their ships before anything. In addition to that, it required

16
00:01:55.159 --> 00:02:00.120
a very vast knowledge of the stars
and the coasts to be able to be

17
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:07.079
located, so it is often clear
that those boats were lost in the sea,

18
00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:10.360
left, departed from the coast and
were never seen again, so it

19
00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:17.479
was thought that they were devoured by
gigantic sea monsters of ferocious appearances, even

20
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:27.080
to be considered that this was more
a diabolical matter, not so much because

21
00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:32.719
ancient civilizations spoke of the devil,
but because they considered the gigantic sea monsters

22
00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:43.240
as destructive evil beings that more than
inhabited anything in their imagination. Of course,

23
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:47.759
something had to have happened. Let
me explain why. And this is

24
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:53.520
a starting point for many cryptos zoologists, who argue well if they had never

25
00:02:53.599 --> 00:03:01.560
seen anything, would probably attribute the
destruction of those vessels. Some kind of

26
00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:08.280
evil wind, some kind of sky
fire, some kind of spirit more than

27
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:14.800
flesh and blood animals, of course, they also knew whales, they knew

28
00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:21.439
sharks, and they might be influenced. But, anyway, why is it

29
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:25.199
so specific in terms of their legends
and, above all, why legends of

30
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:36.879
similar sea monsters arise in totally different
civilizations. Why appear biblical accounts of the

31
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:45.400
Talmud’ s Old Testament where they
spoke of literally sea monsters, when they

32
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:51.879
had no contact with this, i
e, in the Mediterranean there were no

33
00:03:51.919 --> 00:03:58.680
sea monsters and yet they were talked
about. They hadn' t seen whales.

34
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:01.400
Maybe some of them were stranded,
but they hadn' t seen them.

35
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:09.520
How to explain that tales arose about
these immense beasts if they were not

36
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:15.920
there, unless they really had that
and very old legends, or had contact

37
00:04:15.920 --> 00:04:23.360
with equally very old creatures that we
do not know today, but which were

38
00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:30.199
seen at the time. That would
explain why so many legends emerged. I

39
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:35.120
don' t know if you'
ve heard of creatures like Leviathan, which

40
00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:40.240
basically speaks of a kind of great
sea snake, a kind of sea monster,

41
00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:46.600
and it' s a Hebrew legend, but it has some characteristics that

42
00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:49.240
make it very peculiar. It is
an interesting subject in many respects. First

43
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:59.360
understand that previous civilizations could have been
very ignorant about some technical things. They

44
00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:03.120
could be ignored sooner in terms of
medicine, in terms of mathematics, in

45
00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:08.560
many things. Finally, they were
equal to you, to me, human

46
00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:13.399
beings, in the last eight thousand
years have not changed much. Therefore,

47
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:18.800
his imagination was very similar to ours. They had no Internet, of course

48
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:25.439
not, computers, no global positioning
systems, no iron boats, either.

49
00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:33.879
And then that called them ignorant and
luscious and fanciful. I' m not

50
00:05:33.879 --> 00:05:39.480
so sure. Finally, they were
people who threw themselves into the sea in

51
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:44.439
a shell. That required knowledge,
required some kind of experience, otherwise all

52
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:48.120
the sailors would have died. And
that kind of experience and that kind of

53
00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:56.319
knowledge was not precisely the product of
ignorance, but of experience and of having

54
00:05:56.399 --> 00:06:02.879
been in the seas for hundreds of
years. Therefore, fantasizing so easily leaves

55
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:13.079
a certain sense of doubt. Perhaps
something more than what we imagine inhabits the

56
00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:16.120
oceans, something more than we have
seen through the documentary programs or research of

57
00:06:16.199 --> 00:06:27.399
current marine biologists. There really is
something down there that lives well below the

58
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:30.040
surface of the water in places where
we haven' t arrived, where we

59
00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:33.240
don' t know. It is
ironic, but we know more about the

60
00:06:33.240 --> 00:06:38.079
surface of the moon than about the
abysmal pits of the Earth' s oceans.

61
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:47.480
That' s how simple there is
a good question. The Leviathan spoken

62
00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:53.639
of in the Bible is a very
complex character. There are those who attribute

63
00:06:53.680 --> 00:06:57.439
it to the alligator of the Nile, There are those who attribute it to

64
00:06:57.480 --> 00:07:03.160
the sea serpent, And the fact
is that in the ancient Hebrew text in

65
00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:06.360
the Talmud and in other equally very
ancient texts the existence of the lebeathan is

66
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:13.560
mentioned. It is even said,
according to legend, that the Leviathan was

67
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:20.199
created male and female, that is, there was a single couple who already

68
00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:27.480
sees decides to kill the female to
prevent them from procreate and, consequently,

69
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:33.360
to destroy the world. Since,
according to legend, the Leviathan was such,

70
00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:40.800
so great, he was so strong
that the human being could not stand

71
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:46.759
in their way and would most likely
end everything. The term used in these

72
00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:56.399
ancient texts is taninim basically could be
translated or with the marine giant. The

73
00:07:56.439 --> 00:08:01.240
ancient legend also speaks of the reincarnation
of the serpent, of the biblical account

74
00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:09.000
of Adam and Eve. That serpent
would have been transformed into the Leviathan and

75
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:15.319
hence considered extremely evil. On the
other hand, it appears in numerous texts

76
00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:20.360
of the Talmud and the Old Testament
of the Bible, where it is mentioned

77
00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:26.560
as jave even controls Leviathan. On
the one hand, he hates him and

78
00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:31.519
in fact kills him. In isaiah
he mentions how with his heavy and firm

79
00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:39.360
sword he kills Leviathan. However,
in the Talmud, in another text,

80
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:43.120
which is perhaps much older, the
hours of the day are mentioned and it

81
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:50.080
is pointed out, for example,
how at the end of the day God

82
00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:56.559
plays with the Leviathan, which is
his creation and is not the only point

83
00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:01.200
at which this is mentioned. There
is also another series of very old texts

84
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:09.200
in which the existence of Leviathan is
discussed. How they describe it. There

85
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:13.759
is another text that mentions how it
is. It is said that the Lebeathan

86
00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:18.919
was a monstrous fish that would have
been created on the fifth day of creation.

87
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:26.720
Exactly more details are not given,
but elsewhere it is mentioned that the

88
00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:31.120
lebeathan has a shell. Therefore,
there were those who interpreted it as a

89
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:37.159
giant turtle, which does indeed exist, but does not become a true monster.

90
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:41.720
In general, turtles, even the
largest, do not exceed 300 kilos

91
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:50.600
and are not usually particularly ferocious or
fearsome. They are simply animals, large,

92
00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:56.679
slow and very long- lived.
Then, why should the legend arise

93
00:09:56.879 --> 00:10:01.720
of a monstrous fish created by Jabé
himself, by God himself, and that

94
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:09.399
he would even have had to kill
the female to prevent it from reproducing and

95
00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:16.039
consequently destroy the creation. There is
another text that comes in the Torah that

96
00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:24.960
mentions how Leviathan competed with the vehemot
and there was a kind of combat,

97
00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:31.279
a kind of competition. However,
it was said, for example, that

98
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:37.200
the Leviathan could, at some point
even compete with the land animal, so

99
00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:43.159
it is interpreted from the 18th century
as the crocodile of the Nile or as

100
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:48.799
a huge alligator of some kind that
inhabited the region. Hence it was intuited

101
00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:56.200
that it came out of the water
and climbed to the ground. But it

102
00:10:56.279 --> 00:11:01.120
' s not that precise in that
sense either They talk about life. But

103
00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:09.120
perhaps the closest form to the general
idea of lebeathan comes later when we talk

104
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:16.279
about how God takes advantage of the
lebeathan’ s skin, which is a

105
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:24.519
marine animal, and how they eat
Leviathan’ s flesh, thus feeding whole

106
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:33.120
civilizations. Of course there are also
other legends that speak of Leviathan in some

107
00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:39.200
way related to eva good question.
There could have been many derivations from the

108
00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:43.879
myth. The big question that many
cryptosology researchers continue to ask is where they

109
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:50.919
got all this from. There are
other Bible references in which it is mentioned

110
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:56.200
in some way. There' s
a text talking about a seven- headed

111
00:11:56.240 --> 00:12:01.320
sea monster. This could have been
simply a recap or a copy of some

112
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:07.000
Greek text or Sumerian mythology in which
this was often referred to as gigantic monsters,

113
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:16.240
but there would have been something really. That is a key question also

114
00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:22.039
in Hindu mythology is spoken of a
seven- headed sea beast in the Middle

115
00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:28.320
East, on the Japanese coasts this
was also talked about. There are a

116
00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:37.240
lot of stories about the Leviathan or
amazing monsters inside the water. Years later,

117
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:43.000
much later, there were some legends
compiled by Bernard Hubelmans, who was

118
00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:46.840
also a cryptosology researcher. In fact, he considered himself the father of cryptozoology,

119
00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:56.000
where he spoke of the hypothetical mosasaur, a monster that apparently would have

120
00:12:56.039 --> 00:13:03.200
been seen on numerous occasions and was
described as a real horrifying thing, as

121
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:11.679
a kind of creepy, large insect
that inhabited the waters. All these can

122
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:16.840
be simply fantasies, stories and so
on, but in the 14th century,

123
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:24.120
for example, a very interesting account
of Spanish sailors who spoke of a fish

124
00:13:24.840 --> 00:13:28.840
bigger than a ship and who was
able to destroy the keel of a boat

125
00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:35.440
appears. With the powerful fins in
their tail, they were describing a whale.

126
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:41.360
Maybe it' s possible. It
is possible since the boats that risked

127
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:46.159
leaving the coastal strip were not larger
than about thirteen or fourteen meters long and

128
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:50.120
were built in wood, so they
could have been attacked by a large whale

129
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:56.799
with some ease. But there'
s no history of this. Whales don

130
00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:01.919
' t usually attack boats. This
is not the case, for example,

131
00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:05.120
with a movedick trying to devour the
captain a haup with his entire boat.

132
00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:11.960
Not that was not documented by the
sailors. They simply recounted that they were

133
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:16.600
capable of their enormous size. This
led to plans and maps being filled with

134
00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:28.840
little drawings, frightening monsters devouring sailors. You may have seen something, yes,

135
00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:33.559
of course, but not those horrible
monsters, and that has been casting

136
00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:39.679
doubt on the researchers. It could
have been the legend growing up, but

137
00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:43.200
he could have seen something, too. Those people. At first, when

138
00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:46.639
the first stories of the 14th century
of Spanish origin were analyzed, it was

139
00:14:46.639 --> 00:14:52.360
felt that they could have been whales
and that they would have frightened the sailors.

140
00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:58.919
Some time later, however, it
was known that those people knew about

141
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:05.480
whale exis were not confusing them,
they were talking about another much larger creature.

142
00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:11.720
Then appear the Nordic accounts, which
are located in the North Sea,

143
00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:20.399
in the regions of Ireland and all
these eminently maritime areas. There was talk

144
00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:26.080
of whales and it was even an
animal that was sometimes married to eat consequences.

145
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:31.000
They were familiar with him. Why
talk about giant monsters and I don

146
00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:33.480
' t mean cracken, which was
some kind of octopus, but giant fish

147
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:41.080
capable of sinking boats. Years later, when sailing towards the new continent begins,

148
00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:48.000
these stories also appear. Again.
We are talking again about the presence

149
00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:56.879
of sea giants terrorizing sailors, given
their enormous mass and their voracious attack again

150
00:15:58.159 --> 00:16:06.159
breaks down, yet because the largest
whale blue whales, for example, are

151
00:16:06.159 --> 00:16:15.720
incredibly peaceful sociable animals altogether. They
form cardumens or herds, as you want

152
00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:21.559
to see them, since they are
mammals of good number, but they feed

153
00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:23.919
on plankton and phytoplankton, of very
small microorganisms that float in the water.

154
00:16:25.480 --> 00:16:29.440
They don' t devour other animals. It was felt that they might be

155
00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:33.799
talking, for example, about the
sperm whale, which is a whale of

156
00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:37.159
teeth, but it didn' t
seem to answer that either. The difference

157
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:42.559
is huge. There was also talk
of this. They weren' t sea

158
00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:48.600
monsters. Orcas aren' t that
big. Then there was a hole in

159
00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:51.559
what the hell they were talking about. On the other hand, it is

160
00:16:51.639 --> 00:16:53.080
not a constant mention. They don' t talk about this all the time.

161
00:16:55.000 --> 00:16:57.799
Thus, a hundred years may pass
between one account and another. There

162
00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:03.440
are even some that separate much longer, which means that it was not a

163
00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:07.240
frequent animal, it was not a
creature that walked around that was familiar to

164
00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:11.559
human beings, like dolphins, like
otters, like many others that the human

165
00:17:11.559 --> 00:17:18.680
being already knew and that even used
to eat. Nor, of course,

166
00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:22.079
was it a snake as such,
because it was described as a fish.

167
00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:30.240
So that' s where that insidious
question of cryptozology comes in again. What

168
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:38.559
the hell did you see now?
The funny thing is that the stories did

169
00:17:38.640 --> 00:17:45.839
not always speak ignorant people in the
sense that it was the sailor who barely

170
00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:51.119
understood what they were telling him and
lived there in a hut. Do not

171
00:17:51.240 --> 00:17:56.039
be aware that, for example,
the particular case of Holius Magnus was in

172
00:17:56.039 --> 00:18:03.400
the 16th century and the subject was
a clear bishop. That doesn' t

173
00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:06.960
mean he was a very prepared man, more than in his religious affairs,

174
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:08.519
but he was a guy who had
read everything that was going on around him.

175
00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:15.480
Understand me that those people in those
years were the basis of knowledge,

176
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:18.799
of knowledge was in the hands of
the Church. So, anything that there

177
00:18:18.839 --> 00:18:22.920
were biology texts, medicine texts of
whatever was in his hands, and Olaus

178
00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:30.720
Magnus was talking about a 60-
meter- long animal. It could have

179
00:18:30.759 --> 00:18:37.519
been a slight exaggeration, black with
sharp scales. Well, I considered it

180
00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:41.480
a spectacular beast typical of a little
drawing of plans or maps of that time.

181
00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:45.759
After that another account appears. In
a thousand seven hundred and thirty-

182
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:49.319
four. It' s a modern
time, a thousand seven hundred and thirty

183
00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:52.519
- four. The navigation had already
taken place all over the world, there

184
00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:56.319
had already been trips of circ with
navigation, already known the difference between the

185
00:18:56.359 --> 00:19:02.279
Indies, well, between what was
believed to be one and America. There

186
00:19:02.319 --> 00:19:07.079
was already a lot of knowledge and
there were also many publications in this regard.

187
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:14.640
And yet another kind of egre mentions
having seen himself a monster on the

188
00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:19.799
coasts of Greenland. He described it
as a sea monster, as an animal

189
00:19:19.839 --> 00:19:27.160
of impressive dimensions and, in fact, related it to the Leviathan, ensuring

190
00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:30.880
that Beathan existed, took it as
a fantasy, as a myth of the

191
00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:37.599
time. After that, about twenty
years later, another very rare text appears.

192
00:19:38.519 --> 00:19:45.279
It is a book that relates encounters
with marine giants. This was written

193
00:19:45.359 --> 00:19:52.240
by a certain pont who could well, was also a clergyman and mentions in

194
00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:59.680
his text a series of accounts of
encounters with these very varied creatures. Some

195
00:19:59.720 --> 00:20:04.200
of them describe them as great snakes
with manes and very exotic things, but

196
00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:11.880
in general it was understood that the
Leviathan was a kind of giant fish,

197
00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:18.519
able to attack a ship and sink
it and then devour the sailors. Also,

198
00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:25.079
of course, the Eastern narratives appeared, for example, that spoke of

199
00:20:25.119 --> 00:20:30.680
the NAFA. NAFA was some kind
of multi- headed monster. It'

200
00:20:30.759 --> 00:20:33.880
s all right, it may have
been part of fantasy, part of myth,

201
00:20:34.400 --> 00:20:41.759
part of legend, religious beliefs,
there among mixed, but finally there

202
00:20:41.799 --> 00:20:47.160
was something and little by little stories
of snakes and awesome monsters appear here and

203
00:20:47.160 --> 00:20:52.039
there. The fact is how real
it could have been and well, that

204
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:57.880
' s where biology comes into play. What' s desert with this sea

205
00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:03.240
monsters, that there' s desert
with current research. And, well,

206
00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:14.720
some very strange things are appearing.
You know, some particularly exotic specimens are

207
00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:18.799
appearing. In fact, doubts begin
about the truthfulness of these accounts or,

208
00:21:19.359 --> 00:21:26.519
at least, about the truthfulness of
the official opinion. You' ve heard

209
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:33.920
about the Arapaima. Well, an
animal that' s about 200 kilos in

210
00:21:34.960 --> 00:21:40.640
weight is just an ordinary fish,
a fish that' s three meters long.

211
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:45.759
He is known as the giant of
Arapaiman. It was found in an

212
00:21:47.799 --> 00:21:52.799
area of Brazil and is currently held
in captivity in a pond and is an

213
00:21:53.759 --> 00:21:59.559
extremely peaceful animal, but it is
an impressive fish, it is gigantic.

214
00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:07.839
It is considered neither the largest nor
the only one. The monster or giant

215
00:22:07.960 --> 00:22:14.680
of Arapaima is thought to be a
relatively small specimen. Why do you think

216
00:22:14.799 --> 00:22:18.720
this is good, because remains have
been found that exceed this animal in size

217
00:22:18.759 --> 00:22:23.839
and is fresh water. Therefore,
it could have had some antecedent of a

218
00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:30.640
much larger animal, and there comes
a very interesting speculation. The marine biologists

219
00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:34.599
who take care of both the aquarium
of the paima in Manaus, Brazil,

220
00:22:36.480 --> 00:22:41.960
and in some other cases of research
have concluded that the largest specimens that have

221
00:22:41.960 --> 00:22:49.519
existed of this particular species could have
reached up to four tons of weight and

222
00:22:49.559 --> 00:22:57.160
have measured above the ten to twelve
meters specimens of fresh water eminently herbivores.

223
00:23:00.160 --> 00:23:04.359
It is known that throughout history,
when a giant animal is found, it

224
00:23:04.440 --> 00:23:10.559
is thought to have been larger.
There was a time when animals on planet

225
00:23:10.599 --> 00:23:17.480
earth were gigantic. As a result, this was a product of excess food.

226
00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:22.039
There was plenty of food. As
times change. The great extinctions are

227
00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:29.680
presented. The sizes of potential food
victims are reduced. As a result,

228
00:23:29.799 --> 00:23:34.400
animals reduce their size, but not
everywhere. And that' s where the

229
00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:38.799
other speculation comes in. Speculation about
good. What we know about the oceans

230
00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:45.880
is this surface layer. But down
there, what' s there, how

231
00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:53.519
much there can really be giant creatures
in there and then more recently some very

232
00:23:53.559 --> 00:23:57.119
curious facts begin to appear. For
example, the fact that some of the

233
00:23:57.160 --> 00:24:03.599
larger animals that are layered last are
inhabitants of the depths, which would mean

234
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:08.960
that the big giants are still there
in the great depths, where the specimens

235
00:24:10.319 --> 00:24:17.000
are very large, where the food
would be abundant in every sense, while

236
00:24:17.519 --> 00:24:22.880
the surface or close to the surface, the animals would be small. Even

237
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:27.799
though there are very abundant shoals in
the depths, there would be large,

238
00:24:29.599 --> 00:24:34.960
perhaps large, solitary animals. It' s hard to know, but they

239
00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:41.640
' d be there adapted, they' d have survived thanks to the presence

240
00:24:41.640 --> 00:24:45.039
of the famous underwater chimneys. This
is during the great extinction. Supposedly this

241
00:24:45.319 --> 00:24:52.359
asteroid colliding with the earth produces an
impressive darkness and cold. But at the

242
00:24:52.440 --> 00:24:56.680
bottom, there is close to the
great abysmal graves, where there is no

243
00:24:57.039 --> 00:25:00.920
light, where there is no contact
with the surface. There temperatures are regulated

244
00:25:02.000 --> 00:25:08.359
in a different way and it is
possible that conditions have remained practically the same

245
00:25:08.599 --> 00:25:15.599
there. Therefore, they would not
have extinguished themselves, and not only that,

246
00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:22.400
but they would have survived and grown, because, while in the rest

247
00:25:22.480 --> 00:25:27.079
there would no longer be enough food, there the food would remain the same

248
00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:32.279
of ancient times, therefore they would
not have had to have changed its size.

249
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:37.400
How much, you can support this
in some true fact, in some

250
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:42.000
document you have out there. Well, that' s a matter that'

251
00:25:42.079 --> 00:25:48.680
s still under discussion today. Since
there is no reliable data. The expeditions

252
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:53.480
to the bottom of the sea have
actually been quite poor, but there are

253
00:25:53.559 --> 00:25:57.359
some very rare data out there.
You will see in Brisbaine, Australia,

254
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:10.279
a few years ago the fossil of
a marine predator whose size was truly amazing

255
00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:15.000
was found. Yeah, it was
a lot bigger than a tyrannosaurus rex.

256
00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:21.960
He was marine, he was agile, he was very fast because of the

257
00:26:21.960 --> 00:26:25.319
size of the fins. It follows
that he was an animal of incredible swimming

258
00:26:25.440 --> 00:26:33.519
power about fifteen meters long. Only
the main teeth were about thirty centimeters.

259
00:26:36.920 --> 00:26:42.000
The specimen found in Brisbaine was not
the only one. Suffice it to note

260
00:26:42.079 --> 00:26:48.319
that a similar remnant was also found
in the Norwegian region. This specimen from

261
00:26:48.400 --> 00:26:52.960
Norway was dated about one hundred and
forty- seven million years ago again,

262
00:26:55.119 --> 00:27:04.160
it was a gigantic animal. The
possibility of bite of this creature exceeded ten

263
00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:11.640
times that of any living animal.
Only there was a problem. The copy,

264
00:27:11.720 --> 00:27:15.799
supposedly one hundred and forty- seven
million years old. On a second

265
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:22.359
research expedition, it was found in
a region where the fossils surrounding it were

266
00:27:22.559 --> 00:27:30.960
barely a couple of million years old. That immediately gave rise to tremendous doubt

267
00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:33.839
if it was actually not all the
millions of years it was said to be,

268
00:27:34.279 --> 00:27:38.640
but two million years old. It
was very close to the current specimens

269
00:27:38.720 --> 00:27:44.240
of living beings, but there was
still a greater doubt, since some time

270
00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:56.599
later a similar tooth was found in
shape and size in the remains in the

271
00:27:56.640 --> 00:28:00.480
casing of a whale that had been
partially devoured. At first it was thought

272
00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:04.200
to have been a megalodon, a
giant shark, but the shape of the

273
00:28:04.279 --> 00:28:11.319
teeth was very different. Megalodon has
a pointed, thin tooth typical of sharks,

274
00:28:11.519 --> 00:28:17.240
while sharks were more round looking,
though incredibly pointed and large their appearance

275
00:28:17.640 --> 00:28:25.839
was not the same. There came
a huge doubt. What the hell did

276
00:28:25.839 --> 00:28:29.559
they find? At first, I' m telling you, we talked about

277
00:28:29.559 --> 00:28:33.480
a megalodon, a white giant,
a shark, but the shape wasn'

278
00:28:33.599 --> 00:28:37.400
t the same. They weren'
t the same. When the palentologists of

279
00:28:37.640 --> 00:28:44.599
the Oslo Museum of Natural History in
Norway began the research, they could not

280
00:28:45.279 --> 00:28:49.720
conclude to which animal that belonged.
But something was clear. I hadn'

281
00:28:49.759 --> 00:28:53.839
t gotten there by mistake. It
was found in this floating shell of a

282
00:28:53.920 --> 00:28:59.160
partially devoured animal. The partially devoured
animal had been in life an animal about

283
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:03.000
eight to our meters long, a
giant also that had been devoured by another

284
00:29:03.119 --> 00:29:11.200
giant. What the hell was that? The only problem in interpreting this data

285
00:29:12.079 --> 00:29:18.599
is its age. In theory,
humans were not in contact with these specimens.

286
00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:23.480
They never saw them alive. Even
if they were much more recent,

287
00:29:23.839 --> 00:29:32.640
they wouldn' t have seen them. But they are very close to what

288
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:37.759
is described by the oldest texts in
the history of mankind, where animals with

289
00:29:37.839 --> 00:29:47.319
similar characteristics are related. It is
possible then that the found specimens have not

290
00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:52.519
been extinguished. They reveal animals of
incredible dimensions. The only details that fossil

291
00:29:52.559 --> 00:29:59.759
remains were found in the highlands,
which somehow gives us the idea that these

292
00:29:59.759 --> 00:30:03.279
lands, at some time they were
the seabeds and ended up rising up because

293
00:30:03.400 --> 00:30:10.079
of the activities of the planet,
because of the deformations of the crust,

294
00:30:10.519 --> 00:30:17.079
remaining on the surface of the water
at high altitude, what happens to those

295
00:30:17.160 --> 00:30:22.119
animals that did not stay there trapped, with those that remained in the water.

296
00:30:23.359 --> 00:30:30.279
They may have survived. The doubt
is strong, but for some cryptozoologists

297
00:30:30.960 --> 00:30:37.240
it is possible there existed Vaya.
Animals existed a long time ago, but

298
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:41.960
by chance, at the same time
as these marine giants, of which only

299
00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:48.200
fossil remains have been found, in
theory they lived together with animals that currently

300
00:30:48.279 --> 00:30:56.119
do exist. Fossils have been found
from other animals whose present existence is proven,

301
00:30:56.440 --> 00:31:00.559
so they may have seen about them. That' s the spearhead.

302
00:31:03.319 --> 00:31:07.480
What was most urgent, given the
case for cryptozologists, was to show that

303
00:31:08.160 --> 00:31:15.960
mythical animals such as hebeathan had existed
at some point, and that was clear

304
00:31:15.079 --> 00:31:18.799
from these remains, but it would
not be the only one. It should

305
00:31:18.880 --> 00:31:26.240
not be noted that another copy was
also found this time in Peru. Yes,

306
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:33.039
the famous whale- eating monster,
as he is known, was found

307
00:31:33.119 --> 00:31:37.920
in Peru. This was supposed to
be an animal that inhabited about 12 million

308
00:31:38.000 --> 00:31:47.200
years ago and that was able to
devour whales. He' s been catalogued

309
00:31:47.359 --> 00:31:53.240
as the greatest predator of all time. Interestingly, he was found on a

310
00:31:53.599 --> 00:32:00.000
high land, yes, which showed
that it was the sea floor or the

311
00:32:00.319 --> 00:32:05.240
sea floor at that height. Because
of the cataclysmic activity of the planet itself,

312
00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:10.039
what they found to these people is
something truly similar to mob Dick of

313
00:32:10.160 --> 00:32:15.680
Melville' s famous novel. By
the size of the jaws the shape.

314
00:32:16.519 --> 00:32:22.960
It is evident that it was a
whale- like animal, but an impressive

315
00:32:22.039 --> 00:32:30.240
ferocity. The animal could have been
about 18 to about 30 meters long.

316
00:32:32.440 --> 00:32:38.279
The specimen found was a relatively small
animal. Fossil evidence reveals that he was

317
00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:45.880
not a completely adult animal, but
a young animal. The dentures as such

318
00:32:46.720 --> 00:32:54.359
were impressive, only it was not
finally a sperm whale. The shape of

319
00:32:54.559 --> 00:33:00.599
both the head and the jaws were
not the same. This was an animal

320
00:33:01.720 --> 00:33:10.240
that caught its victims literally sucked them
out. It was a very rare thing

321
00:33:10.279 --> 00:33:16.759
after that the bites. Comparing this
creature to a current blue whale would have

322
00:33:17.559 --> 00:33:24.680
been about ten to twelve times larger. If this acriaturo had lived, he

323
00:33:24.759 --> 00:33:32.039
would have dispatched with great ease and
tranquility any vessel that would put in his

324
00:33:32.240 --> 00:33:37.359
wake again the news as such when
this appears, if I am correct,

325
00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:42.880
in two thousand ten was taken as
a fossil specimen, as something that lived

326
00:33:43.680 --> 00:33:51.759
twelve or fourteen million years ago,
Only if he continued to live this creature

327
00:33:51.839 --> 00:33:59.400
would have been exactly as described by
the ancient navigators. With that incredible ferocity

328
00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:04.920
a whale of incredible conditions came nimble
capable of devouring a boat with its hand

329
00:34:04.960 --> 00:34:09.239
at its waist. This could,
therefore, be a new account. It

330
00:34:09.320 --> 00:34:15.840
was clear that these giants did exist. The only problem was temporality. Time

331
00:34:15.920 --> 00:34:22.880
is too much. The temporal difference
is an abyss, but keep in mind

332
00:34:22.000 --> 00:34:29.159
that if only two or three skeletons
have been found along many hundreds of thousands

333
00:34:29.280 --> 00:34:37.559
of square kilometers. It means they
were very few animals with a very low

334
00:34:37.639 --> 00:34:45.280
reproduction rate. It is believed by
the characteristics of the bones and others that

335
00:34:45.320 --> 00:34:52.159
they were deep animals, that is, that everything is set, it would

336
00:34:52.239 --> 00:34:59.360
seem that they could still be here
and that does not contravene some more or

337
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:04.159
less recent accounts. A year of
one thousand nine hundred and ninety- four,

338
00:35:06.239 --> 00:35:07.599
on the Chilean coasts there was an
account of one of these animals.

339
00:35:08.519 --> 00:35:15.480
A fishing vessel secured on its return
to the port after having virtually completely lost

340
00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:22.039
the gear of nets having been attacked
by a gigantic marine animal. It was

341
00:35:22.119 --> 00:35:24.960
described as a whale. The boat, which by the way was a high

342
00:35:25.039 --> 00:35:30.079
sea fishing vessel, was not exactly
a canoe. It was a relatively large

343
00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:36.280
boat, a boat of about twenty- eight meters long. Therefore, it

344
00:35:36.360 --> 00:35:38.840
was not a canoe, it was
not a lanchita and, however, its

345
00:35:39.159 --> 00:35:45.079
crew had to cut ropes and lose
gear. Since that thing started dragging them.

346
00:35:47.360 --> 00:35:52.079
The account was taken very lightly.
There was no investigation as such and

347
00:35:52.440 --> 00:35:57.800
it was considered that it was even
possible that the boat had encountered a submarine

348
00:35:57.840 --> 00:36:02.960
on a secret mission, probably from
NATO, and that it would have been

349
00:36:04.000 --> 00:36:09.599
entangled with the rigs, provoking the
strange vision of those men. But it

350
00:36:09.639 --> 00:36:15.280
definitely had no resemblance. The animal
jumped on the surface before sinking again and

351
00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:21.079
almost took it to the seabed or
boat with it. The operation as such

352
00:36:21.800 --> 00:36:25.119
would have lasted about fifteen to twenty
minutes, among which the sailors of that

353
00:36:25.159 --> 00:36:31.079
ship of Chilean origin would have suffered
the madness to see how the boat was

354
00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:37.440
tilted dangerously and then dragged, despite
all the power of its engines. That

355
00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:42.639
gives you an idea of the size
of what they found. I' m

356
00:36:42.719 --> 00:36:49.159
telling you, the official explanation was
a submarine. Of course, they would

357
00:36:49.199 --> 00:36:55.800
have seen that on the radar with
some ease and would hardly have confused the

358
00:36:55.880 --> 00:37:00.719
bridge or the turret of a submarine
with a gigantic whale. Another incident,

359
00:37:01.360 --> 00:37:07.519
which apparently had certain characteristics of reality, was documented in the year two thousand

360
00:37:07.639 --> 00:37:13.119
and two. This time on the
peaceful side, on the Pacific Ocean side,

361
00:37:13.800 --> 00:37:17.559
it was documented at about the height
of the Panama Canal area, about

362
00:37:17.559 --> 00:37:23.280
six hundred kilometers from the coast,
a very strange encounter in which a boat

363
00:37:23.320 --> 00:37:32.840
that was once again fishing for track
had a risky situation. The Japanese flag

364
00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:39.119
vessel, as expected, was allegedly
on a fact- finding mission in which

365
00:37:39.199 --> 00:37:46.079
it was allegedly because they usually do
what they do is catch animals banned for

366
00:37:46.199 --> 00:37:52.519
supposed purposes of study to market them. The fact is that they reported being

367
00:37:52.559 --> 00:37:59.320
literally dragged for several kilometers by something
they couldn' t see on radar screens,

368
00:37:59.639 --> 00:38:02.360
that it didn' t have an
echo in the sonar system that they

369
00:38:02.400 --> 00:38:08.719
use to track, but whose dimensions
must have been gigantic. The stories as

370
00:38:08.840 --> 00:38:15.440
such remained as simple press releases.
There was no consistent investigation, there was

371
00:38:15.679 --> 00:38:21.320
no review of the testimonies, just
like a press release. Curious, when

372
00:38:21.360 --> 00:38:25.119
in the year two thousand nine appears
in the first cases of these fossil giants

373
00:38:25.599 --> 00:38:31.079
in Brisemaine and Norway, certain doubts
begin to arise. You know, doubts

374
00:38:31.159 --> 00:38:36.840
begin to arise as to whether that
was just fantasy or whether really, down

375
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:42.920
there are giants capable of sinking modern
boats. Imagine if that were true,

376
00:38:43.239 --> 00:38:50.599
what they could have done with a
smaller vessel would have been chaos. That

377
00:38:51.639 --> 00:38:57.320
really is an issue that should be
taken up, not so much for security.

378
00:38:58.239 --> 00:39:01.480
Understand me that finally, ships sink
every year for all sorts of things,

379
00:39:01.719 --> 00:39:08.760
many of them disappear by fire storms. It would not really be a

380
00:39:08.840 --> 00:39:15.039
risk to mankind to have one of
these animals, but what would be surprising

381
00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:20.559
would be how they did to live
for so long. How they did to

382
00:39:20.639 --> 00:39:25.119
survive glacial times, large extinctions,
marine pollutions resulting from eruptions and impacts.

383
00:39:27.320 --> 00:39:30.280
How they could have survived. The
information obtained from that would be incredibly valuable.

384
00:39:34.599 --> 00:39:40.239
How they managed to reproduce over so
many centuries and from very few specimens,

385
00:39:40.719 --> 00:39:47.800
without tearing apart their genetic code,
in part for some a little more

386
00:39:47.920 --> 00:39:53.760
fanciful. This could shed valuable information, for example, to help the human

387
00:39:53.800 --> 00:39:59.559
species in making more long- lived, the species in improving living conditions.

388
00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:04.559
I don' t know. There
would be a lot of possibilities. All

389
00:40:04.639 --> 00:40:07.960
I have to do is thank you
for the favor of your company. Thank

390
00:40:07.079 --> 00:40:15.440
you so much. Very good evening
