What's up, dude?

Joe Rogan (0:13)

What's happening, brother?

Tyler Engle (0:14)

Thank you very much for being here. I love your fucking Instagram.

You have a rabbit hole of an Instagram, dude. It's so good. Your latest one on Noah's Ark is really fucking interesting because I knew about the scans, but I did not know about the connections to the Sumerian text and how he was referred to on the King's List. Yeah. Yeah. I send it to you, Jamie, just to start off, because I want to really blow up your Instagram because it's so good, dude. Thanks, man. My pleasure. It's so many times where I'm doom-scrolling. I find that I'm like, oh, I'm learning something. This is justifiable. So it's called bassforge.us.

That's Tyler's Instagram. And this is all about these new scans. And they dug into it today, I think. Today or yesterday.

Jamie (1:06)

It's been two days.

Tyler Engle (1:07)

They think that they hit Petrified Wood, which is really interesting. This whole thing is very weird, but let's just hit this.

SPEAKER_3 (1:16)

New scans from Turkey, Mount Ararat, the Noah's Ark location. They got a new little drone out there that's using the same technology that they use to find the Hawara labyrinth in Egypt recently. Mind you, both of these were not taken seriously by the mainstream.

I'm still skeptical, but the evidence is getting a little overwhelming. Because the earth is not lying, Mount Ararat is almost 17,000 feet high, straddled by two of the saltiest lakes on earth and a dry one to the south.

How did it get there?

Most people confuse the flood with the younger, driest event. That is way too far back in history. The nearby town of Sherupak was buried in 50 feet of mud. That mud was dated very close to the mud that is covering this structure. But Sherupak is very interesting. That is where Noah was from. The ancient Sumerians called Noah Zia-Sudra, the last king on the Sumerian kings list before the flood. These guys were a megalithic culture, meaning they could work really big, really hard rocks. Their temples are so destroyed, there are 10-ton stones just laying out in the middle of nowhere that got thrown off the top of a mountain. But that's very important because these guys could work really big stones. And right by the site of this arc are these things. What are these things? These are called drogestones. You see the hole in the top of them? You fit a rope or a chain through that. They're anchor stones. They're found in ancient Greek and Roman ports. What they would do is suspend them off of the boat to keep it stable in rocky water or anchored. Noah's Ark didn't have a mast or anything to steer it. It was the largest ship ever built and meant only to survive this one event.

They'd need to be that big for a ship that large. And those dimensions are exceptionally close to what we see in the ground. I put this site and the temples in Hidden History free update. Explore it. Okay, for real though, how much more evidence do we need? Just dig the thing out.

Tyler Engle (3:07)

Well, I think they are trying to at least slowly excavate that area and figure out what it is. But just the story itself, it seems like as written so preposterous that all of the animals on Earth were put on, you know, two of each on a boat, and then the flood came, and then afterwards they repopulated the Earth. It seems like a ridiculous simplification of something that was probably at least somewhat true. I don't think that they had all the animals on the boat because that doesn't make any sense. There's not enough room. You know, animals eat other animals. There's a lot of... But it does seem like there was some, probably multiple events throughout history, but some sort of an event that they're documenting.

SPEAKER_3 (3:53)

That one's well documented, actually. The one in Turkey was... The flood. Yeah, 3,000 BC or so, I think, was the...

Around that area, there was multiple. And that's where you see all this, like the Temple of Ionis. That whole region there has flood evidence.

Tyler Engle (4:08)

Right.

SPEAKER_3 (4:09)

But it's not Younger Dryas flood evidence, you know?

Tyler Engle (4:10)

But it's also probably not global.

SPEAKER_3 (4:12)

It's not... That's what... That's, I think, an important distinction that a lot of these places make is they have similar stories, but they probably weren't the same day, you know? Right. It could have been sequential. Like, some event's gonna happen somewhere and cause this, and then another one's gonna happen over here and cause this. But the Mediterranean, that area is very unique because it's basically surrounded by mountains, right? Like, there's this giant from Iran to all the way to Greece, mountain range.
