  • Only open minded people will believe or consider all the theory about life on other planets. And that we have been visited in the past or even now! I for one am open minded to all possibilities! Close minded people or lack there of. Will never open to any possibilities. Regardless of evidence or not!!

  • I am sure that even with scientific proof, some people will refuse to accept the truth. Check out Nasa's website...look for Kepler Mission. The information there was posted on 12.05.11

  • Life on moon,yes

  • Moon

  • Perhaps God created aliens.....and aliens created man?

  • @pallen49 its possible.

  • Remember, we are all equal - right?

  • @NIETZSCHEAN14 Says who? I can do things you can't you can do things I cant. maybe you can do better thing then me then we are not equal.

  • @mcdrunkin. Of course people are not equal! Nature is not egalitarian. That was the point I was trying to make. I was trying to be witty.

  • Life on other planets is not only possible but it's almost guaranteed. Life formed here, so why not on another planet that orbits in the Goldilocks zone of it's own star. Who knows? Maybe what we call God really is a superior alien race that created us. I don't know, and neither does anyone else, least of all the sheeple that are brainwashed into regurgitating biblical passages for every problem they face. The Bible, the oldest and most successful self-help book in the history of man.

  • Love the book but I seem to missed place it :( but atleast I can watch it :)

  • @ around 3:17 - "on how many stars can life exist". None you dumbass.....it'd be too f**king hot!

  • @c2105026 he obviously meant how many stars could support life i.e. their planets orbiting them.

  • You would be foolish not to believe possible life forms in the outer space.

  • @Abominations1 the ultimate proof and the only one we need is hus if we exist then its obvious that other species out there exist too! come on peoples dont be fucking ignorant

  • @Abominations1 i wasn't talking to you i was talking to everyone in general

  • This is rubbish of course but it is gorgeous tv.

  • Comment removed

  • I just read the book CoTG. I'm already infected with "Dänikenitis". Its mind boggling. The book raises only more question, but makes you wonder, what if?

  • WELL I THINK THIS IS AN AWESOME CLASSIC DOCUMENTARY...I THINK ITS BETTER THAN THE NEWER VERSION.

  • I didn't know they had such high quality audio back then. You can practically feel the bass and the treble pierce you.

  • Joe Rogan sent me ;)

  • thumbs up if you were brought here by kylemonkey !! :)

  • LOL at the wooden airplanes!

  • is it me... or do all those natives look like they are wearing the same wig...

  • @Weissman33 a robot made by humans landed.. we did

  • 7:45

  • I love these old documentaries with off-tune music,reminds me of days gone.

  • What I love is that the language in the documentary is not dumbed down to extremes. To think that once television makers didn't automatically assume you were a retard with a 20 second attention span!

  • 1972 they were saying this and its 2011 now and there still saying it the same way on Ancient Alien Series on the history channel

    Could it be drilled in our heads anymore?

    Lets get on with the show!

  • @Weissman33 Totally...

  • Without any origin,history,information and no memories,without a choice to exist we just came to be.We are all the experiment of God or Lucifer?.We clearly dont live in the heaven actually under it,this place is called Earth and has plenty of other names.In somehow we all entered Earth without to know it.Did god cast us all to hell?why dont we know anything.Now God or his angels is the most wanted in the universe.We live inside this giant prison and facts are that we are not alone.

  • this man asserts to much for his claims. all one has to do is google mayan pakal and see that that is not a space amn in a ship but a man galling to death and the ship is across

  • I wonder who owns the rights to this...they should re release this movie in theaters.

  • crappy music scores.

    ancient human have great potential

  • @loopz321 WRONG GREAT Score ! look it up

  • Most peoples ignorance on this subject falls right into arrogance. The evidence is right in front of us, all people have to do it simply take a look at it with open eyes and an open mind. Who knows, maybe we are an engineered species. That theory holds as much possibility and possibly even more evidence than us origination on earth, yet most people reject that theory for no reason other than protecting their own idea of their significance.

  • @TheArmChairAthlete The only evidence is your retard logic. No advanced technology here period

  • @Gyro911 Did a retarded twelve year old get a hold of your account Gyro911? You are obviously uneducated on the subject, nullifying your opinion completely. Yeas ago I would have bothered to educate you, but today I know that people like you can not see passed themselves. Your reply is messed up. I never said anything about technology nor did I say anything more than pose possibilities, leaving this subject not up for debate. Yet your retarded ass somehow found it and decided to comment...

  • Even the bilble have evidences that aliens landed on earth. Maybe the religions believe God is in heaven because they saw aliens going up to the sky and had no idea where they went back then and their best theory was heaven. The bible says " Jesus was born from virgin Maria" How can she be virgin if she was his mother? The logic way to think is that aliens brought Jesus to earth. Maybe he was an alien for being such a special person and after his death aliens might have taken him back.

  • @Weissman33 yeah, well we did land there, just not physically...

  • Such a pile of bullshit. If aliens gave us technology how come we didnt have TV's plane's and skyscrapers 2000 years ago. All modern technology happened within the last 150 years dumbasses where were the aliens then?

  • @Gyro911 You are pretty uneducated

    

  • @Gyro911 youre stupid advanced civilizations were more occupied or searching the stars and getting more knowledge..do you think they would give a crap about watching alien idol??nooo.....they build pyramids that gave them a source of power ..thats why theres pyramids on mars the moon etc..as their energy stations...they dont need buildings to make business as today ...buildings are made for money..from this corrupt goverment...they dont need that...see past the wall in front on you!

  • @MAJEZTICSENZ19 Your a retard, stop watching stargate its only a movie. You and your fellow idiots have yet to present any evidence of advanced technology back in that day aside from large lego blocks being stacked on top of each other. Yeah the pyramids were made of money to back then called imperial rule of the farrow which they forced their minions to build

  • @Gyro911 Stargate was a TV series with one movie you dumb fuck. Once again, your wrong! If you actually pulled the cock from your ears and listened up, you wouldn't spend your free time going to a video to diss people on a subject you haven't paid attention to. If our species ever advances, people like you will have to stop reproducing.

  • @TheArmChairAthlete Just to prove how retarded you are, you wouldn't have even known about any of this had it not been for hollywood ideas and the technological advancements of the 20th century. Your whole thought process is based on a fictitious fantasy that lacks credible facts and is only spurred on by loons like you. People like you need to step out into the real world and get a life

  • @Gyro911 Holy fuck your a moron! Am I really going to wast my time proving some stupid fuck on YouTube that has nothing better to do than bash people with different ideas than him wrong? Hummm YEP! Think your shit through before opening your mouth fool! oh wait, if you did that, then you wouldn't speak! What is everyone ideas based on?? facts, theory, publications, news, textbook, studies...the same place that your "facts" came from is the same place the evidence here came from.

  • @Gyro911 I'm not saying that it's all true and that the pyramids creation was really assisted by ET's, but there is evidence to show that our ancestors had contact with ET's. Regardless of if the evidence was shown on TV, a movie of a textbook, evidence is still evidence period! It doesn't matter who's right about what! No one here knows, so no one can do anything more than have an opinion. I respect your uneducated opinion, after all, I need someone to pump my gas and clean my house.

  • @TheArmChairAthlete I know a child can stack blocks on top of each other and a child can also believe in cartoons and Santa to be real.. You got that mindset, think about that.. Go educate yourself and learn how to judge evidence properly

  • @Gyro911 Your reality is fabricated! Every time you speak, you bring something new into the convo as if this was about something it's not. Damn dude! I didn't say anything about anything being build my ET's or anything of that manner...Gezzz man, get a grip on reality and read what is written, not what you expect to read. Also, you are not commenting on this video, you are commenting on the entirety of the ancient astronaut theory which poses questions and possibilities. No one

  • @Gyro911 creditable has ever said that any of these things were built by ET's. However, there is a lot of evidence such as full depictions of spacecraft in ancient glyphs. Sculptures of spacesuits that predate what we thought was the start of homo-sapiens. All these things pose question and support ancient astronaut THEORY. The fact that you discount all evidence of this theory without any evidence or your own is just pure stupidity. You remind me of the fools who once thought the world was flat

  • @Gyro911 ...you need to educate yourself...by the way i dont watch stargate for that matter ..i rely on other sources...the evidence is held by the same people that dont want you to know...its up to you to open up your mind to possibilities once you do you will open up your mind..

  • @MAJEZTICSENZ19 Oh wow! You said something I agree with. However, people today give a crap about watching for aliens and back then they would have cared even more since the aliens were seen as gods.

  • @TheArmChairAthlete So i need to take your word for it? holy shit I smell a false prophit here

  • @Weissman33 well i think he meant we would send rockets to mars,lol,you know the rover things.

  • The most important film of the history of human kind.

  • So the islanders were keen to get the gods to land back on their island again, but were completely oblivious to the "gods" that were right in front of them filming?

  • ‎"Religion is deemed by the commoners as true, the wise as false, and the rulers as useful. Those with faith are easier to control than those without faith."--Franklyn

  • 1 love worldwide all - peace !

  • Thanks for posting

  • Thats not all Doctor Herman Oberth said... Doctor Herman Oberth a NASA space scientist stated in 1972 " we can not take credit for our recorded advancements in certain scientific fields alone." "we have been helped." ..." and we have been helped by the people of other worlds." Doctor Oberth was one of the pioneers of astronautics.

  • I dont know if any of you watching are familiar with the Tunguska mystery, but the Russian scientist in this film Alexander Kazantsev (1906-2002), was an engineer and sci-fi writer, whose hypothesis about the catastrophe of an extraterrestrial starship over Central Siberia gave the main impetus to the Tunguska studies in the USSR in the mid 20th century. Source: The Tunguska Phenomenon: 100 years of an unsolved mystery. Krasnoyarsk: Platina, 2007, p. 43.

  • even if a civilization did come, by now, they would have been had their singularity moment. could we truly uncover this mystery?

  • Who honestly believes some of this shit. Although it is interesting. I really love reading conspiracies and shit, but some of it is outlandish.

  • The song in the beginning reminds me of the scarface song at the end of the movie.

  • @Weissman33 hey either way, no hard feelings man... I wish I knew the entire storyy, I have figured out or learned a good deal but it is probably but a small grain of sand compared to the universe itself...

  • @Weissman33 look you jackass...  lol wow talk about egomaniacs...

  • @Weissman33 uhh this is the 21st century...

  • Greenattic I REALLY do not want to sound like a Horses Ass...BUT..

    Chariots of the Gods came out in 1970 not 1972. Forgive me for being a know it all. I had to correct my videos too because I had put the wrong date on them.

    Thanks for being understanding....

  • "based on the NOVELS..."

  • @Weissman33 actually we have. none of us have been told the truth.

  • wow, I remember watching this as a kid, thanks for sharing!

  • @Weissman33 What, you've never been?! You must go some time

  • The early 1970s production standard really enhances the creepiness of this piece.

  • @Weissman33 we did...if you count probes

  • I saw this when I was 12 in the theater in 1974. I love the music and always remembered that when I saw it and it is a trip to hear it for the first time in over 35 years!

  • @Weissman33

    Not entirely, we did have man made space craft land on Mars.

  • It is truly amazing to how Closed Minded most people are conditioned to think. Try to open your minds and realize that this man and many others have great insight. Myself, being a civil engineer, know as well the physical capabilities of building structures, past or present.

  • @Tamadrums66 so as a civil engineer you think aliens built the pyramids?

  • @eslubin I believe the true history of this planet is unknown. Anything could have happened in the huge span of time. More advanced human civilizations could lived 2 billion years ago. Perhaps alien life does visit every once in a great while. All I know are numbers and physics, and without modern machinery, all these massive ancient structures would be impossible to build. Even today, they would be quite difficult, or impossible.

  • @Tamadrums66 my mind is open to all possibilities. what persuades me though is logic and evidence, not arguments from ignorance. and because something is possible that does not make it probable. close minded would be to assume something is true and dismissing all the other possibilities.

    my open mindedness means i am open minded to the possibility that aliens did not visit earth

  • @Tamadrums66: I used to believe this, but i dont do it anymore. Because there are reasonable explanations to all the claims Erich Von Dänicken put forth in this documentary. Von Dänicken overinterperate over and over again. I do believe that we are not alone in the universe, but i dont think any intelligent alien race would have interacted with us when we were primitive... heck we are still primitive.

    I just need much more proof before i will believe these claims again. A buried UFO or such

  • @JegHarEnLillePik I think if they were smart enough for inter galactic travel, they would be smart enough to not crash.

  • @comradevetch thats funny. we are smart enough to make toast, but still burn houses down.

  • @JegHarEnLillePik how do you think religions were started if not aliens?

  • @44GreenJB By the power hungry to keep the masses under control. Is no surprise that almost every religion offers rewards after death. Some deal that is. If i were religiously inclined i would definitely want my money back.

  • But it wont be possible to land on venus, will it?? on mars yes but venus not.

  • @Anet000 Venus use to be habitable.

  • @Anet000 it will happen if we are still alive to do it.

  • LOL man will land on mars! fail

  • @Eldel15 Even funnier was how will man be received when they land on a distant star, just a bit hot don't ya think? lol

  • peace and conscience love to all life~~~

  • Ha ha Palomar Mountain that's my playground!

  • The 1970s were truly a wonderful time in SCI-FI cult history

    this was after the Vietnam war withdraw and the peace hippie 1960s new age social revolution that caused most people around the world to start believing that all human history was based in part on some grand master plan to create so much chaos in the world ....maybe the ufos were to blame for this :) so thats where Chariots Of The Gods come in

    Its all connected : human evolution and space aliens

  • Nice Tunes !

  • It's hard to know what's going on. i think people are not thinking clearly about the future these days. Maybe we are doomed because we will not adapt. Soon yellowstone caldera will pop and all life as we know it will be gone

  • i wish my last name was "roggersdorf."

  • Thanks for posting, I remember this back when I was 8-9 years old. One of the classic documentaries of the '70s. Haven't seen this is over 35 years.

  • Was just sitting here pulling nutsack hairs while I listened to this. Off to bed now.

  • @Bugzelot Wow, what a bunghole ..Nite nite..

  • in the end of 80's man will land on venus :'DDDDDD

  • All right Saturday matinee, I saw this movie with the Legend of Boggy Creek.

  • alot of mysteries have been uncovered since those days

  • They do sound similar, which isn't unusual since they were both released in the early 70's. Little House on The Prairie came out in 1974.

  • When I was about 10 years old, I remember the teacher talking about it after it aired on television. It caused a bit of a sensation back in those days.

    Today, some of the mysteries remain just as they were. However, many artifacts in this program have been thoroughly reexamined over the years with more plausible speculations. Some claims are outrightly spurious, such as the Fergana Cave drawings or the Iron Pillar of Delhi.

    The music is cool though. I'd like to get the soundtrack.

  • i got my copy in the mail today and i can't wait to read it

  • My only question is this. after the aliens seeded life and or intelligence here, what is their planet like if they then left earth and had to go home. Did they say," this place is ok, but we really need to get back home?'. LOL

  • HAHAHAHAH....your're really funny! *LOL

    thanks! made my day!...

    hope your's is great!

  • This is one, if not THEE, best documentary ever.....

  • lol its funny, it seems each time era had their own "movie voice" iv heard this guys voice on every video that was made before 1990...

    nowa days its that guy with the really deep voice? u kno the one on all the movie commericals n shit.. lol

  • @butthead6886 Don LaFontaine. He passed away tho, in 2008.

  • Got the book for christmas.........it's much better than the sound effects...LOL

  • Now that we have discovered water on the moon scientists are thinking on creating a perminant colony on the moon.

  • the gods that drive the chariots (ships) are black.

  • @SuperbadIsraelite ah... did they carjack the sumerians? why did they wait so long to teach us how to make crack and malt liquor?

  • Chariots of the Gods (1970)....a great movie.

    This film helped give rise to the UFO industry in the US.

    The In Search Of TV show was actually born out of the concept behind this movie.

    40 years on this movie is still interesting.

  • @ThoughtTraveler hav u ever read the book? i was guna read it but i saw this posted n would much rather jus watch it in a movie... think id b missing anything?

    shlts so interesting man, wtf is life really all about. i heard our goverment knows a ton of shit but wont say anything. many nations across the world have came out and discused it. all cept america.. wonder y

  • Yes I read the book as a kid. You can still get it. Erich von Daeniken was just on TV again last night with a new show about UFOs on the History Channel. He is still going strong at 70

  • @ThoughtTraveler as he said "one day they will return and if you dont listen to erich von daniken, you will have the sssshock of the gods!" :))

  • To answer your question....yes it is easier to watch the movie than read the book. The movie has more to offer in real film footage.

  • We didn't land on Mars! Here we are in 2010 and the American Space program is going from Shuttles to Rockets! We haven't landed on the moon again!

  • Landing on Venus would be fun too lol, you would be ripped apart.

  • @unfoundbassist not to mention its 800 degrees F!!!

  • In the course of this century man will land on Mars? Too late now, guess it wasn't in the budget lol.

  • About 7:32 there's a native with a very funny way of running. If I didn't know better I'd say they just got a load of bums, stuck them in grass skirts and told them to pretend to worship aeroplanes.

  • Lol! I forgot how groovy music from the 70s was! Good video.

  • Yeap it was just possibility to be something like that... But no, of course high tech aliens (gods) won't need any landing area, do we need landing are for F-16? No.................. Much more interesting is where is the top of the mountain what doesn't exist anywhere? Could these be marks when they/something else cutted top off with some kind of weapon.. These animals could be done by peru people...(except the "space"man on the wall)

  • Reply to DEBRISTHEREOF: Why would a alien spaceship SO ADVANCED in technology that it can travel from star to star, need  a landing strip or the Earth's magnetic field FOR ANYTHING ???

  • I'm with you ridemybmw, it's a great movie.  It made people think and debate. I keep my fingers crossed for them to release it in dvd. Greenattic, thanks for posting this.

  • I'm with you ridemybmw, it's a great movie. It made people think and debate - beltor33

    No kidding. They should re-release this in movie theatres. It would pack theatre rooms solid.

  • Reply to georgeanton77 : And where exactly would aliens build their " airplane engines " for their stellar spacecraft. If the aliens had to get by with only airplane like engines they would NEVER be able to get back home which would be many billions of light years away.

  • "In the course of this century (1900's) man will land on Mars, in the next one, Venus." Boy are we behind the eightball.

  • Reply to TweaksinYaBrain : But what difference would that make ? Whether alien spaceships be small or the mother ship, NONE of them would need a landing airstrip. ALL the alien spacecraft would be able to land and lift off VERTICALLY !

  • unless they where stranded without their vertical power engines and they had to build regular airplanes to travel the earth surface faster in order gather the right resources to repair their vertical engines and get the fuck out of here.

  • the landing strip would act as a marker for where the ship might best link in with the earths magnetic field

  • Brilliant movie GreenAttic!!! Thank you so much for posting this masterpiece on the unexplained. Von Danikken is a true legend!

  • Amazing show...Too bad von Daniken`s theories were lambasted by the scientific establishment. They should re-release this in movie theatres.

  • 7.30 Macguyver flew in that plane.

    8.15 it's James Brown!

  • LOL!

  • James Brown!!LOFL

  • Love this Doc........

  • I think it is interesting that in less than forty years since 1972 the question has changed from "Could there be life out there?" to "How couldn't there be life out there?"

  • The government keeps everything else from us. If this were true this would have an effect on the global structure as we know it.

  • It's also interesting that in recent years the catholic church has recognised the possibility of life on other planets, contradicting the bible. If they were to take the bible as truth, then finding life elsewhere would eradicate all religions, as they all assert that earth is the only planet with life. Maybe the catholic church's turn-around is to ensure their grip on a large portion of the western world should life be found elsewhere. Just my theory anyway. Religious types need not reply.

  • garratt86, not all religions say life only exists here. Actually, most religions say the opposite, mate.

  • So you think there were explosives in the towers?

  • This was a very interesting film when it came out, but it was intended to be so. All of this stuff was easily explained later. Sorry for disputing the myth, but all of this is just pure fun conjecture for a film.

  • made in that way as to avoid any ridicule. intended to awaken peoples awareness and it has

  • I seen this at the theater when it first came out back in '72 and it touched me and made me believe in extraterestials,the evidence is everywhere.And to believe in that,you can't believe in a God.I am a proud athiest.I was a christian,but now I feel free to think clearly.All religions are based on fear,I am not afraid of anything now.

  • i agree with you, but i just believe also that the whole idea of GOD comes from the actual beings in the craft..."God" is an advanced alien being

  • the 200 foot Hale telescope is located at The Mount Palomar Observitory. located 2 hours from downtown San Diego

  • Reply to frazerII : Of course not. There are many many other things wrong with Chariots of the Gods. In 1976 P.B.S. NOVA did a big expose on this film. For example, the Nazca lines nin Peru (which I have flown over ), this film claims the Nazca lines were ancient runways. YET NO PLANE COULD EVER LAND ON THEM WITHOUT BEING DESTROYED. They are not ancient runways. Some of these white lines are very small and you could walk along them in seconds The film does not make this clear.

  • Read "Space Gods Revealed" it debunks all of Danikens "theories".

  • I AGREE 100% WITH WHAT FRITZSKI22 WROTE. For example, as Carl Sagen pointed out, why would a intersellar travelling spacecraft need a runway to land on or take off from ?! I thought spacecraft could land or take off VERTICALLY !!!

  • So seemingly the biggest problem you seem to have with all of this is that you think all (if any) alien space craft must surely be able to take off vertically!?

  • On the landing strip debate: if you were something like an advanced civilization in a stationary orbital spacecraft..would you risk the entire ''mission'' and try to land the whole thing on the planet? OR..would you send smaller more appropriate craft with less occupants...such as those with LANDING cappabilities?. Think people! Stop being so narrow minded

  • Carl Sagan once saids that in order to be a space faring planet someone has to get out there first. Maybe we are the first. Strange but possible

  • Indeed.

    Think about this one...

    There's a LOT of space 'dust' between 2 stars. Traveling from star A to star B would require very fast speeds, near the speed of light probably. Traveling at fast speeds means that you're going to hit space dust, and most likely destroy the craft you're traveling in. Therefore, it is unlikely that aliens have traveled to our star system. Interplanetary travel seems possible, but not interstellar travel.

    Who knows? Not I, that's for sure.

  • AHHHH! The grand-daddy of all "crockumentaries" ever made. The crazies lapped this guff up, then got bored of ancient astronauts so - fired up by "Capricorn One" - started deluding about moon landing hoaxes, then after boredom with that, began hammering on about 9/11 conspriacies (current crockumentary "Zeitgeist"). HAHAHAHA I LOVE IT! Bring it on wakos!

  • he made more money then you in 100 life times with this lol so who is laughing

  • its naive to think that we are the only life... ever, anywhere. im not saying that aliens have visited earth (although i believe it to be true), but there has to be other life.

  • Why couldn't aliens have visited our earth? Why do most people laugh when admit believe in aliens. Maybe because that is what we are led to believe by society and governments. I think its great to have your own mind and think outside the box : )

  • i already said that i believe aliens have visited earth, but ill let other people decide what they want.

  • Saw this about a year ago I also read and own the book and actually like the soundtrack.

    But although I find all that ancient astronaut stuff absolutely fascinating, It's probably all BS.

    But it is the premise of one of my favorite television shows ever, Battlestar Galactica 1978.

  • I share both your fascination for the Ancient Astronaut stuff AND your love of the ORIGINAL Battlestar Galactica.

    I think you're being too harsh on the theory though by saying it's probably all BS.

    OOPAs (Out Of Place Artifacts) all over the world testify to SOMETHING strange.

    PERSONALLY, I think that the answer lies not in our stars but in ourselves.

    In short, I think that the advanced technology we're seeing from the past is from Atlantis and similarly advanced cultures.
