Stonehenge

In the dead of night, as people sleep, that's when the spirits creep. As the bell tolls three, dark things take power. We like to call it the supernatural hour. Welcome back to Supernatural Hour, everybody.

This is one of your hosts, Raven, and we have. I'm Tim. And I'm Chad. And we are super excited to be recording today.

At least I am. How about you guys? Oh, super excited. So excited that I almost forgot that we were recording and I had a text going to ask you if we were recording today.

I know, and I actually remembered and I'm all researched. So here is our question for you, our fellow worldwide Corona quarantine ease. Here in Utah, they're actually lifting some of the restrictions very slowly per all the guidelines that the governor came up with. So we're not quite as lot kind of some of you.

But here's our question. So when Tim got here today and we're setting up, he sat down and he said, you know, the energy in your house is just a little bit different. And I said, good, different or bad, different. So it just got me thinking, has anybody, any of our listeners out there, or do you have friends that have mentioned anything to you about energy in their house being different?

Since this happened, maybe it's one of your homes. You know, had a history of paranormal activity there, whether good or bad, have you noticed the difference? Email us. We'd like to hear your Corona quarantine lockdown in your house, paranormal stories.

We want to hear it. So go ahead and give us an email. Or just any paranormal story that you have in general that you'd like us to share. Or that you just like to share with us.

Like if you have something you want us to share on the show, well, it means email it to us. And we'll talk about it if that's what you want. We can have a little from our listener segment. It's kind of like, please, please mailbox.

I know we have like 400 emails. Probably the easiest one to remember is just Tim.wisps at Gmail. And I can always forward that onto Raven and Chad. Yeah.

Totally perplexed. Just go to the wisps website and get the contact button. I think there's also like a user submission section on there as well. Like you can go and submit your stories and EVP and stuff to us that way.

Yes. And I do get a few. And speaking of which, somebody sent me some pictures like the day before chaos happened. And I haven't forgotten about you.

We will get those sent to Randy. So today's topic is going to be Stonehench, which I'm super excited about. I've actually been there. So I've got a little bit of first 10 knowledge.

I've seen pictures. It's pretty awesome. So when you go there, I don't know about you guys. But when you see pictures on the internet, or when someone's scrapbook, and you see, I mean, in my mind, it always looks huge.

And when you get there, it's always smaller. Maybe I just build things up to be enormous. But for me, it was a little bit smaller than I expected. And I was kind of sad, because I expected to go there, and it was going to be huge.

And I wasn't disappointed by what it means. It just didn't match my visual that I had made of it. But I had imagined going and sitting on the stones and laying back and feeling the energy and becoming one with all these rocks. And they had it get it off.

You can't go hug a rock when you're there. Yeah. Too much vandalism and theft and what goes on to they had to put things in place to keep people from doing that, which is sad. When you have an ancient historical monument that's like, said to be 5,000 years old.

Yeah, don't be stupid. Don't go steal stuff from it. That's just retarded. Yeah, I'm like preserving history.

And the fact that this has been preserved for so long is amazing to me. You can get up and close and personal, but you have to buy tickets to a certain tour. And they only sell those tours are pretty limited. They don't do a whole lot of those.

So you can hug a rock, but I didn't have a hug a rock past that day. So there was no rock hugging. But it still is pretty awesome. So when I went, it wasn't with Chad.

It was actually my ex-husband. And we went on a bus tour. And so he and I didn't have a whole lot of time to just reflect. We had to think we had a couple hours there.

We're walking down the parking lot. Right in the middle of the parking lot was this little circle that was just a little bit bigger than the baseball. And our tour director said, stop. Everyone stop.

Then we're standing in the parking lot. And we're thinking what in the heck. And everyone gathers around. And he said, look at this little plaque.

And I don't remember what it said on it. I don't think it said anything fantastic. I think it was some numbers and a circle and a picture of the Queen or something. I don't remember what was on it.

But he says, this little circle, he says, when they were excavating and putting in this parking lot, they actually found the burial tomb right here. He says, so this little marker in the parking lot marks where there's a burial site. And I kind of thought that was really cool. It's like, here I am standing.

Where they buried somebody and probably had big ceremony and everything. And there I was just looking at it. And he said it was one of the older ones in the area. So if you think of Stonehenge, it's not just Stonehenge.

It's actually part of a whole system of Neolithic Bronze Age monuments. And there's a whole lot of things. If you do any research on this and all, there's a whole ton of things just within two, three, four kilometers. And they range anywhere from about 5,000 BC to the fourth millennia.

So it spans quite a range. And they still don't know who built it and why they built it. I think the original Stonehenge, because they mentioned that there's three different Stonehenge, there's three different phases of Stonehenge. The current one that's standing right now is Phase 3.

And that one is said to be about 5,000 years old. Phase 1, they say it dates back to about 7,000 to 8,000 BC. And it was woodhenge? Yeah, it was the first it was woodhenge.

It was a strawhenge. And then we went to woodhenge, and then we ended up with Stonehenge. Just like the three little pigs. Yeah, and then a big bad wolf came and blew someone down.

And so they had to put a fence around. So they put a fence around. So people wouldn't still. It was big enough.

Well, part of the actual Stonehenge is taken down, and they think that the Romans had something to do with that. Right. Well, you know, I think that's up and I had a bit. That's OK.

We can jump around a little bit. What I think is interesting is when Stonehenge was built, they built it on what to them was ruins. But we've got these people building Stonehenge doing whatever it is that they're doing with it. Kind of in the Stonehenge.

Well, not kind of. They are in the Stonehenge era. But at the same time, you've got Egyptians with their pyramids and their, who else? My mind is totally like that.

The Babylonians. Oh, in the Middle East. Oh, you have the Parthenon in Greece. In the Middle East.

And they've got quite a thriving, much more progressive. Civilization going on. And you've got the Britons here. And when I say that, Britain's with an O.N.

The Britons, kind of saying, Ugg and Dragon Rocks around. So I found that a little, the way they described on the internet was kind of funny. You've got these thriving, very high tech of the age cultures in another part of the world. But it is interesting that they did what they could do.

Because some of those rocks, they estimate way about 25 tons. And that's a lot of weight. So they were innovative. And they were dragged from quite a way, I weren't they?

Well, the inner stones. What are they called? The bluestones? The bluestones from 200 miles away from Wales?

Yeah. And why are they called blue? I missed that apparently. Because when they get wet, they look blue.

Well, that's cool. Yeah. I know the outer stones, those were closer to the area. And they weren't taking this far.

But those are the outer stones. Like you said, we're about 25 to possibly 40 tons. And they were able to stand these things upright without pulleys. Right.

And if you look, go and look. And there's pictures of some that are laying down. And you can see holes in the top. They almost look like big square needles with a hole in the top that you thread through.

And that's how they would hook them together when they were standing up. Before we get too off into some other stuff, if you're unaware of where, I'm sure everyone's heard of Stonehenge. But if you're not sure where they are, they're in Southwest-ish England in an area called the Salisbury Plain. And if you look at the address for Stonehenge, it says Salisbury.

And it gives you the zip code England. I mean, that's it. Salisbury. But there, there's the Salisbury Cathedral.

It's very nearby. And the Salisbury Cathedral is where Handel wrote the Messiah. Just kind of a little bit Stonehenge and the Messiah together. There you go.

All in the Salisbury Plain. Yeah, on the Salisbury Plain. Which makes me hungry because it makes me think of Salisbury. Which I wonder if it was invented there.

I'm going to say yes. I doubt it, but. Sure. Sure.

We're going to go with that because it sounds cool. All right. I'll allow it. Woo hoo.

I win. OK. So if you go there, like anything, the best time to take pictures is going to be in what we know as the Golden Hour. But it's especially cool in England because in that Golden Hour is when you're going to get fog and mist rising up.

So there you go. When you go there, go at night. The only day it's closed. There's only closed one day.

Do you want that? It's Christmas. Yes. How do you close an outside building?

Structure thing. Oh, I'm sure you can probably try to pass it. But that's a good question. I don't know.

I'm sorry, outside is closed today. That's kind of how it is now. That's true. I mean, that's what they say.

But on the drive here, I don't think that's true. No, I did get that from some guy who went there. Maybe when I was there, I don't think they had the visitor center when I was there. I think that's relatively new.

So that might be what's closed. You probably can't get a ticket to officially get in. And I'm not promoting that you unofficially go to Stonehenchuckers' mistake. But I think you could probably still drive past it.

That's OK. I think the energy there's going to be better during the summer and winter solstice is supposed to actually Christmas Day. I don't know. Yeah, but winter solstice is pretty close.

It is pretty close. But the summer solstice is coming up. So there's probably, if they're allowed to, some druids are going to be going and doing some celebrating there. Probably.

So it is on a plane. It's pretty flat. And they're pretty tall rocks. I mean, I mentioned that it wasn't huge, but it is pretty big.

So I think they said that some of those stones made her about 24 or 25 feet tall. Above the land. Above the land. Yeah.

So then it has got to go down. Yeah, I mean, it's impressive. 8, 10 feet below that, too. I mean.

So they don't fall over. Yeah, they're not stacked like dominoes on the land. I'm sure they're buried. Yeah, they were just standing on the ground.

It'd probably be on October by now. So one of the things about Stonehench, I mean, we mentioned that it was a system. It is the best known example of Neolithic ceremonial architecture in Europe. And what I found out that I didn't realize, do you know what hinge means?

I did at one point in time, but I don't remember. It means circle. So they're very creative. Whoever gave it their name was Stonehench.

It was very creative. It's basically the stone circle. I think it was that dude that discovered it in the 1100s. Probably.

Hinge sounds like an 1100s name to me. So they believe that it's not really short. Everyone knows this. No one really knows what Stonehench is for.

Some people think it's religious because of they found bones buried there. Some people think it's astronomical. You know, to look at the stars and the skies. And along that line, people think aliens help build it.

So landing pad? Some people think that it was built for a soundscape, to help mimic sounds. And you can tell that this was the British site, because the example they gave for a soundscape was you take two bagpipers. And if you put them in a flat area and have them play across from each other, the sound waves that they emit when they play.

And if you've never been around a real bagpiper, it's really loud, very fantastic sound waves. But they'll actually cancel each other out. And you'll get like some quiet spots, not silent spots, but some quieter spots, because those sounds cancel each other out. And they've done some testing at Stonehench.

And they say that the acoustics are fabulous. Like you'd have here in some of the big concert halls. They say that the acoustics are just amazing. And the observatory, and they also said, it could just simply have been a tingling exercise, because to build Stonehench, you don't just have one dude and his friend that are bored one day, and they decide to go haul 25 ton stones from who knows where and up to Wales to get 10 ton blue rocks.

So was it just a tingling exercise? Come on guys, let's buck up little campers. We're going to. Well, I was said that it took about, I would say three million man hours to build this thing.

Oh, I mean, it took over. That wasn't just something obviously that was built overnight. It took about 1500 years over the course of time to put this thing together. And there was the three different phases.

So it originally started out with them digging holes and possibly putting up wooden posts using deer antlers and oxen shoulders and shovels. Right. And when they were also excavated, whether they were going to put this parking lot, they actually excavated three wooden post holes. So yeah, quite the undertaking.

And they said that again, they don't know exactly how they built it, but they did suggest based on just the time period and the locale and the technology of the location and age. They think that probably something wicker was involved. So wickers, some pretty tough shiz if it's haul 25 ton rocks. So I'm pretty impressed with those wicker makers.

Well, they also think that it's possible that the ice glaciers were able to somehow carry the stones and put them near where they built Stonehenge. Yeah, because it wasn't, this didn't happen that long after those glaciers receded. But the question that kind of brings up with that is, how did the glaciers know to deliver the right amount of stones near Stonehenge that they needed to build this? Or did they just kind of work with what they had and said, OK, this is what we're doing?

There's also theories that they floated some of these stones down the rivers. So it says that at the time of Stonehenge, the people, they were a little more advanced than just or just, you know, gather, they actually get some hunting and they did have some technology. But they said that they really, really valued those big open spaces. And so to put this monument up in this big open space was very symbolic for them in some way, just for them to put it there.

So they did say that, or I mentioned earlier, that it wasn't just Stonehenge, it was part of a whole system of monuments. And some of those monuments I found really, really interesting. I found them all interesting. It was in 1960 that they discovered those post holes I mentioned.

And they found three of them. They also found, in the area, at first they found 117 big long burrows that they used for burrows. And then a little while later, they found 1,000 more. So that tells me there's a lot of people buried up there.

There are a lot of people in the area. 1,117, and it said long burrows for burrows. There had to have been quite the population there. They found, oh, you guys say something?

Well, I was just saying, it was rumored that at one point, they went from being hunter-gatherers to farmers. And they lived in the area, so it makes sense that they would bury their dead right there. I believe they called them the burrows, which is just basically long tunnels underground for burial purposes. So another thing they had says it was called a causeway.

And one of these causeways is called Robin Hoods Ball. And it has nothing to do with Robin Hood. They just named Robin Hoods Ball, because it sounds pretty guess. It's about three miles northwest of Stonehenge.

And it's basically an earthen ditch and a bank with entryways. And they figure it probably marked a gathering place for ceremonies. But the thing I found is funny, is there's a few more things I'll kind of explain them. But everything consisted of ditches, banks, and it's like that's really all they had to work with really was the ground.

A lot of tunneling, a lot of burrows, everything was really earthy. So to think of Stonehenge with these big huge rocks just still kind of says it was quite an undertaking. One of these things is called Dernintons Wall. And it's an ancient hinge, two miles northeast of Stonehenge.

And it actually consists of two timber circles about the size of Stonehenge. And they thought that that was probably a temporary settlement. It's kind of like they said, well, let's build a wooden hinge while we build Stonehenge, which tells you that it took a long, long time to build, if that's indeed what it was. They had time to build a temporary place before they built the big main place.

The other thing that they found was in the 18th century, it's called, they think it looked like a Roman racetrack, but they could tell that it wasn't just because of the age. And they named it a cursus, C-U-R-S-U-S. And they found several other smaller cursuses that were around. And these dated to about the 4th century.

And they're unsure of their purpose. But they were a long enclosure consisting of what? A baric and outer ditch, kind of like what Stonehenge is built on. So when it comes to Stonehenge, one of the things that they found, and I don't know if it was at Stonehenge.

I can't find it, or if it was one of these curses, or curc, that sounds like a curse, not a curse, a C-U-R-S-U-S. But they found a lot of cremated bones, and then they found non-burned bones, and they found animal bones. So whether that was just their burial practice, whether they were doing sacrifices, I don't know. And they didn't know, but I thought, with all these bones, and all these burials, and tombs everywhere.

And when you're out there, there's mounds. And they're called burial mounds. And there's some similar ones back in the Ohio area. I thought, oh my goodness, it's just going to be all sorts of crazy, honey.

There's going to be all sorts of stories. I thought I'm going to research stories about all the ghosts at Stonehenge. And there really weren't any. I found very little talk about ghosts there.

And there's a little bit of talk. I saw in a couple of places. Some people say that they have seen the ghost of a small child. Some places that just did small child.

Some places that it was a small male that just kind of walks around the stones. Everybody that's been there has said that they felt good vibrations. I didn't say anyone saying anything negative about it. On YouTube, there was a video that someone took of a ghost.

And it kind of shows it between two of the stones. And you can kind of see that it's tall. And then as they move, it gets smaller. But to me, I mean, I watched it several times.

And it just looked to me like shadows and paradolia. If you're interested in looking at that, you just go to YouTube and type in ghost, caught on tape, dash, Stonehenge, dash, 100% proof. And you can decide for yourself or not, whether you think that looks like a ghost to you. Most of the stuff that I look like if you type in Ghost of Stonehenge, it's not like the paranormal.

It's ghosts as in. We don't know who built this area. We don't know why it was built. And so it's ghosts kind of as a metaphor, not as actual ghosts.

There was one couple that said, or a man, who said he was there. And he was talking to this couple, but it was also there. And they told him, yeah, we're hundreds of years old. We come here all the time.

And he's kind of thinking, yeah, you guys are crazy is what you are. But then you just looked away for a second. And when you look back, they were gone. And he looked around.

And they weren't anywhere. And like I said, Stonehenge in and of itself isn't a very big place. And if you're talking to a couple and you look for them, you're going to see them there at some point. He says they were just gone.

They were no longer. And he says, I only looked away for just a couple seconds. A lot of people claim to see unusual shadows. One lady said she felt a rushing feeling, kind of like someone rushing towards her.

But again, it wasn't negative. But I think the thing that shocked me the most about Stonehenge and doing this research is the lack of paranormal stories. I thought it would just be. As I was researching and all, you know, burials and burned.

I sounded like an empire there. Blah, blah, blah, blah. I don't go blah, blah, blah. I don't say blah, blah, blah, blah.

There was just, I was surprised at the lack of paranormal stuff going on there, which makes me want to go. I have a theory. And paranormal. Just going off of my hypnosis session that I went through and how I talked about how all the energy of the Earth kind of comes from Stonehenge and Easter Island, which we'll talk about in another episode.

But I kind of feel like there's all these, like, a lot of leylines kind of stem from Stonehenge. And the energy of the Earth kind of travels from Stonehenge. And it's such like kind of like a calm, peaceful, like sacred space that it kind of keeps out any of the negative spirits. And the only thing that you're going to find there is positive spirits that are there just to kind of like absorb that energy, if you will.

And that makes sense. And so usually when we have paranormal experiences, you're not really going to notice those positive spirits as much as you would as a negative spirit. It's just because they're there not to interact with people. They're there just for the energy and what it provides, in my opinion.

I mean, there's no fact or science behind this. That's just what I feel is the reason for no paranormal stories at Stonehenge. I'll say that makes sense because in the residential is that we do most of the time the spirits we run into are trying to get your attention, maybe because it's something that's going on in home or because there's a negative spirit in the home or there's some spirits we run into. They're just jerks and just trying to cause chaos.

So no, that makes a lot of sense to me. The ones that are there are just chilling and doing their own thing and not trying to act like anybody. There's a lot of positive energy. I think there wasn't an accident that Stonehenge was built words at.

I think there's something to do with the land there that is just so like super charged with positive energy. You're just not going to notice any of those spirits. If they are there, just because they're not there to really make themselves known. They're there to just kind of observe and absorb.

Right. So when I was there, I wasn't there in a paranormal mindset, if that makes sense. It wasn't, ooh, let's go see if there's anything paranormal here. It was, ooh, cool, this is Stonehenge.

I've seen pictures of this and now I'm here. But even if I wasn't of a paranormal mind, like I am right the second, while we're talking about it, if you had just said, what was your overall impression of Stonehenge? I would have said it wasn't just really cool because it's freaking Stonehenge. Come on.

But it was very calm. It was very peaceful. It was very quiet. And yeah, it's outside.

It's in the middle of a plane. But it's interesting because there is nothing there. I mean, it's not like there's, I mean, the Salisbury Cathedral is fairly close. And the little, I don't know if you'd call it a city or a hamlet.

Hamlet sounds cool because it's an England of Salisbury. But it's not, like when you go to the Tower of London, the Tower of London is in the middle of London. And there's the Thames and there's buildings and stores all around it. This is literally out in the middle of nowhere.

Things haven't encroached on it. And I can't help but think that they haven't for a reason. It's kind of like the scene with the Winchester Mansion. And when I went there, for some reason, I thought I was just going to be out in the middle of a field somewhere.

But not right in the middle of San Jose. Like there's the city basically just melt itself around this mansion. So yeah, that's like, I do believe that there is something about the land that's keeping that from happening. Yeah, keeping everything away.

So it's very quiet. I would, it's like you know, when you go into a cathedral and everything's just still and quiet and peaceful and everyone feels the need to kind of whisper. It was the same thing. Even though it was outdoors, everybody was walking around, at least when I was there, was quite river and using subdued voices.

I know one asks this too. I mean, you're outside. You can yell if you want. I don't want to call them.

And I would go back again and heartbeat. I don't think it's the energy that's there at the, I don't think I've never been, but I think it's just the energy that that place puts off. So they set it up again after the Griswolds knocked it down? Yeah.

They did. No, the Griswolds, you know, they have a hand on a lot of stuff, but it's often fixed. Thank goodness. European vacation.

If you haven't seen it, watch it. I own it, but I've never seen it. Really? It's a fun one.

I've seen Christmas vacation and Vegas vacation, but I haven't seen the other two. So Chad and I were watching TV the other day and there was a movie that they, I don't know that they were previewing it, but they were talking about it. And we were like, that would be amazing to watch. We should watch that and then do a little critique on it on our podcast and we can't remember what it is.

Oh, that's very helpful. But just so you know, I really, really wanted to watch it because it looked amazing. So we're going to try to figure it out and we'll talk about it. Okay.

Do we want to talk about some of the theories that they had on like who built it and why? Yes. Sorry. I didn't mean to get off the subject of Stonehenge.

So yeah, it's fascinating that it's about the movie that you almost saw that you don't remember the name of. Well, no, you know, because I'm so on the ball all the time. Oh, yeah, because I am too. Anyway, we went off the weeds a little bit.

Yes, Stonehenge is what we're here to talk about today. Yes. Let's talk about the people who built it. Well, I know at one point they thought that for how many people it took to build that and how structured your group would have to be and a good like following orders and building a team like this, they thought it was at one point they thought it was the Romans because the Romans built the aqueducts and the old roads and just how they built their city.

Yeah. I mean, they had a presence, you know, in that area and they pretty much were engineering geniuses of their time. So it was thought at one point that the Romans built it. And then when they started doing, you know, as advances in archeology came about, they determined that the stones were actually older than the Romans before the Romans ever got to England.

So they kind of ruled that out. Yeah, and they actually thought the Druids built it too. But based on, you know, everything that they did and determining the age, they determined it came before even the Druids. Yeah, the Celtic Druids, I think they were in the area around what, 72 BC.

I think so. And by that point, it was already built. But they used to think that the Celtic Druids did their rituals, their did sacrifices and whatnot and aliens. Aliens.

Aliens. I'm sure they do it with the weird hair would agree ancient aliens. Aliens built it. That is another one of the rumors actually.

They really don't know who. I mean, to this day, they're like, we don't know who built it. Obviously it was people that lived in the southern part of England. You don't know what my favorite theory is.

Aliens. No, actually. Goes into mythology a little bit though. It was that I don't know if it was King Arthur or if it was Arthur's dad had actually commanded or wanted Merlin to build Stonehenge and Marlin was able to conjure the stones and build them and put them up the way they are.

Oh, of course, on Merlin build them. So yeah, that was another one of the theories. It was that Merlin built it and then Arthur and Pendragon and possibly Arthur's dad and his uncle are all buried there at Stonehenge. Though they've never determined whether or not Arthur was actually a real historical figure.

But they even decided that the people that Merlin was based on, I mean, this predates even them. Right. So, and I've heard people say that it's one of the last 12 times that Israel built it. I guess we'll just never know.

Age wise, I don't know if that would quite line up. Maybe. You know what I want to do is I want to take a brain either and see if there are any spirits there. Maybe some that were from the time and see if we can communicate with them and see if we can find anything.

And that's the information that obviously we can't use in a scientific data because spirits aren't. But we can feel cool. We can feel cool knowing that like, you know, hey, I talked to a spirit that was around when this was built and this is why they built it. I think that would be cool.

I don't know if that's possible or if there's even spirits from that long ago there, but I'd love you to give it a go. So if anybody watches the show Ghost Adventures, the several. First shame on you. Well, I know, I didn't say it was good.

Actually, it is good for the first half. Yeah. So I love the history that they give them the place as they go investigate. Yes.

One of my favorite episodes that they did was at a place called the Rams Inn, Rams Head Inn. That was an old old pub in England and it was crazy, super haunted. This is one of those places as I watched it, I thought, I don't think I ever want to go to that place. But apparently it's pretty close to Stonehenge.

So if we went to Stonehenge, we could go check out the Rams Head, Rams Gate, something in that's also near Salisbury. And we can talk about that when I talk about the movie that I can't remember. If we're going to a pub in England, you all can investigate. I'll be doing something else.

Sleep it. Oh, no, we're at a pub. I'm drinking. I don't want to do that.

That's why I'm saying I won't be investigating because we don't mix. Well, okay. Now you realize that when you go to England, that's what you eat is a pub. Pubs in Subway.

Subway. When I was in- Both both the tube and the eating establishment. There are more subways in foreign countries than you can check a stick out. Even when I was in Oman, you can't turn sideways without running into a subway.

They love their subways. Well, that's because they're healthier than all the other restaurants that are out there. There's more subways than McDonald's. That's not a bad thing.

Oh, I think we should have more subways than McDonald's here, too. Okay, should we go back to Stonehenge again? Yeah, probably. We have a hard time.

Swirl. We don't have so much fun. Okay. We've all been pent up in our houses for the last month and a half.

And I was like, oh, look, time's coming over. The first human we've seen, and we've actually done social distance visiting. So, okay. Yeah, so they really don't know who built it, but you have to say, or why, but, and that's one of the things that I like about Stonehenge is it's a mystery.

When it comes to archeology, I was trying to think of that word, when it comes to archeology, we can figure out a lot of really cool stuff, but Stonehenge still remains really mysterious with everything that's been left behind. It really, we can't figure it out. And that's one reason why I find Stonehenge fascinating. But you do have to say something about them.

That was a massive feat of engineering to build, just based on the weight of the stones and the distance they had to bring it. And so, they were either horrendous task master slaves, or they just really got along and worked all the other. So. Yes.

So, but I've never heard anybody, you know, when it comes to Egypt and the Romans, you hear a lot about the slaves helping to build roads and the slaves helping to build. But you never hear them talk about slaves when it comes to Stonehenge. I've never once seen that. Again, just my personal opinion on this.

I don't think the energy there would allow it. Yeah, I don't think so either. I've wanted, this is on like number one on my bucket list of places to visit. Just because of things that were revealed to me during my hypnosis session, it just makes me want to go there and experience it for myself.

I've heard stories, I've read stories online of people that are like down on their luck and they're kind of frustrated with the way things are going in life and they go visit Stonehenge. And like on the plane right home, it just kind of hits them like, okay, I'm supposed to be doing this with my life. And it completely like changes their whole perception on life and what they should be doing in life. And they come out being a better person just by visiting this place.

And just from reading and hearing stories like that, it's just like, why would you not want to go and experience this? Well, and the few reasons that they suspect it was built, you know, observatory music, you know, or sound, burial place, what was the other thing I mentioned? Astrology. Astronomy.

I mean, all of those are peaceful, you know, whether it was a place for them to worship. Well, except for the sacrifices. Yeah, but that would have been part of their worship service. That's true.

So, I mean... And the alien landing pad. Well, that too. Yeah.

But everything was, you know, pretty peaceful. So I just think if I were to just give it a general rating, I would give it two thumbs up just for interest, for all the mystery, mystery, the mystery surrounding it still. And just, I just get the impression that it's very peaceful. And I've been there.

But I mean, you know, the reason behind it, you know, why was it built and how was it built? I think it was just all peaceful. So there we go. I'll have to find this clip of Eddie Isard when he talks about Stonehenge and posted on Facebook.

I've not heard that. Because he talks about like, you know, Stonehenge was built, you build it in an area that's kind of like, uhhh, like mystical and mysterious. He's like, you don't want to build in a place that's like, yatta da da da da da. It's like there you build Trump Tower.

So it's just, he has this, in one of his standup comedy, he talks about Stonehenge. And it's, you know, this dude actually like follows history. Um, I'm kind of incorporating that in his jokes. And it's kind of funny the way he talks about it.

Oh, I've told him to do that sounds interesting. Cause he does mention he's like, you know, the Stonehen's coming from 200 miles away. He's like 200 miles in this day and ages. Like I don't even know where I live anymore.

So when you think about it back then, people didn't travel 200 miles away because it was hard. And I was expensive and you had to have horses or, you know, if you walk. I'm even like traveling 200 miles now. Yeah, 200 miles now is like, oh, that's gonna take a lot of gas.

My car said that you were 24 miles from my house. And I'm like, jeez, that's a far away. Yeah, I mean, 200 miles for us would be from here to the north part of the state. That's a long way to, I wouldn't want to walk that far.

I'll take you a long time to walk. Yeah, and if you had a horse, which I don't know if they had horses back then at that time or not, but that's still a long way of horse. And then to drag some big stones back. Some great big stones, which I'm sure wasn't easy.

I'm sure that took, it doesn't say how long it took them to build, but my guess is it took them a very long time. I'm guessing multiple years to build that, but I could be surprised. We don't know. That's one of those other things that we just don't know, which is why I like doing paranormal.

Cause we just don't know. So in order to walk 200 miles in a 24 hour time period, means you'd have to walk 8.3 miles an hour. Yeah, that's not happening. Or one mile every seven minutes.

Yeah, that's not happening. If I'm moving that fast, you better move that fast too, cause something bad's coming. That's not a good thing if I move in that fast. So I mean, just kind of put things in perspective, like to walk 200 miles.

And you can't walk. In a 24 hour period, which I know they didn't do cause you have to stop sleeping and eatin' all that stuff, but you'd have to be walking seven miles a minute. And you're not gonna be walking that fast, drag in 25 times and rocks behind you. No, so this is a process that just to get the stones that probably took years, decades.

I mean, I don't know what method they used, but it took at least months. But I would put my money on more than one year. Yeah, I mean, I know some people that walked across the country, 2000 miles. And they took them like a year and I have to do that.

And they had horses and they weren't carrying 25, 10 rocks. No, but they didn't actually have horses. They walked the entire, I mean, Amanda and Colton. Oh yeah.

I walked from Georgia to Washington. I took them a span of like a year and a half. And they had a kid on the way. Like they got pregnant and had a baby on the way.

And then finished their walk. It took them like a year and a half. And they didn't haul rocks with them. But they didn't haul rocks?

No. But tall and a kid's almost as bad. Probably. She had the baby on the trip.

She did have the baby on the trip. I took them a year and a half. I mean, granted they did go almost like 3000 miles. Right.

But still going 200 miles carrying big rocks back then with whatever contraption they built or glaciers that they float them on or whatever, still probably took a good year or so. That's it. They had icy glaciers and they just slicked it down and pushed them. That's one of the theories.

They put them on glaciers and then floated them down the river. Very cool. But still, you know, for them to, whatever it was they built was important enough for them to put that time and effort into it. So I don't think it was just to look cute.

No, I don't either. I don't think it was, you know, you look really cute right here. There are some rocks. Let's get up some big 40 ton rocks.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, but over there. Oh, that's another part of the joke. I'll have to show you. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

But still I'm here, this don't here. Let's flip them around. Well, and then I can see, OK, and then I can see, OK, let's say they float them down the ice and they just whizz down, like you're whizzing down, you know, sundown, sunnier skis, and you get them there. You got to stand them up.

But then getting that one that lays across the top, how do they do that? I can see, you know, digging a hole and sticking it in somehow, pushing it up. But the one that lays across the top. Some of the theories on that one is they built ramps to push them up.

But 25 tons of stuff. Yeah, you're not just pushing them up. The ones on top are different from the ones that were standing up. They're a different type of stone.

Still pretty damn heavy though. It's like pum. So, but yeah, that was one of the theories. We're kind of like the, I don't know what you call it, basically like ramps that, so I'm just like going straight up ramps that kind of zigzag back and forth.

Yeah, and that's how they think they built the pyramids with it. So they fill it with something similar to that. That's a pretty funky technology back then. So I figured that one day when I die, I want to watch all the videos in heaven on how they built the pyramids and how they built Stonehenge and what happened to a million air heart stuff like that.

Stonehenge is definitely my watch the video. What about the limber baby? Well, that too. I'm going to be watching videos for like the first two.

Jimmy Hoffa. Yeah. I don't, you probably just got all the information on the snap of a finger. No, I don't watch videos with popcorn and what time does it exist then?

So you're ruining my thing. Yes, I am. Watch Interstellar. No, I'm going to totally has nothing to do with the whole thing.

First 2000 years after I die, I'm going to be sitting in my mansion with my surround sound. You can popcorn watch the videos on how Earth works. I'm just going to reincarnate and come back. How are you going to find out?

How all this stuff happened? Already know. Come to my videos. You can come to my video party.

We'll just have a backyard party with a blow up projection screen. All right, that works too. There better be popcorn. Well, of course there's going to be popcorn.

And it's heavenly. It's going to have extra butter. That's heavenly popcorn. That's one of the mysteries I would love to figure out.

Why it's there. How it was built. Who built it? Why they built it?

And I want to see what it looked like because I don't think there was more to it than just rocks. I almost wonder if rocks were just like the foundation. They have mud walls and leaves growing on it and stuff. What we should do is we'll have the time machine.

Go back and see Stonehenge and then just come back. Get a DeLorean. Yeah. Refined Bill and Ted.

Fall Booth. Hey, it works in both American and British cinema. The Fall Booth? The Doctor Who version?

The TARDIS. Yep. OK, we're on this. We'll have answers for you next week.

Somehow we went from Stonehenge into Time Travel. Hey, it's been that kind of an episode. We can't seem to stay on topic this time. It's just put me in charge.

See what happens when you put me in charge? Hey, it's the thing we're trying out where we take turns. Exactly. When it's my turn to lead, you're going to be all over the place.

Yeah, it happens. Movies we don't know the names of the TARDIS, Aliens. We're all over it. I don't know how it's called.

It's most excellent. All right. Tim, do you have a Stonehenge? I do.

Are we done with Stonehenge? Am I too soon? No, we can call it good there. I think we can.

I think we can do. I think we've got everything. There's just so much information on Stonehenge that I know we didn't cover. But there's some of that got too technical.

I thought people aren't here for a history lesson. You don't listen to a paranormal show for history lessons. We just kind of wanted to talk about some of the more mystical aspects of it and the theories of why it's there. I think it's definitely mystical.

I do feel it falls in the realm of maybe not paranormal, but in the metaphysical aspect of things. Paranormal-y. There's a lot of deceased folk there. This is true.

I mean, with the burrows. Burrows. Burrows. The dead tunnels.

The tunnels. The tunnels are dead. The tunnels are pretty much there. I mean, there's underground burial plots.
