people are not suppose to know when the world ends!the world ends is when god comes to earth!only god knows when the world ends!god is doing it whenever he wants!so it might not happen on 2012!people said last saturday at 6:00pm the world will end but it didnt!!!so it wont probably!thumbs up if u agree
the end is gonna be here sooner or later. But not in 2012. Even if it is. It's really not that surprising. What is all the fuss about? If it ends, then it ends. Nothing to fuss over about. We all kno that nothing last forever.
I'm disappointed that NATGEO would actually upload 2012 garbage. NASA confirmed that the world will not end in 2012 recently. I knew it wouldn't end anyway. There's also several websites saying that the world will not end. It's a hoax, a hoax that led to the suicide of many people and scared children. Yet, there's TV shows telling everybody the world might end in 2012. The 21 of December is the end of the winter solstice that year not the world. Why would the world suddenly end that day?
@MrAmperz -- I respectfully disagree with your statement. NATGEO is not saying the world will end, they are filming scientist who are saying SOME KIND OF CLIMATE CHANGE HAPPENED 5,000 yrs. ago. They are just mentioning that it may have coincided with the Mayan prediction. Yes, the Mayan believed in the end of the world but it happened to be the end of their calendar and unfortunately they didn't survive long enough to make their calender longer.
Hate to disappoint you but I'm a junior with straight A's, and I must say that your "come back" was lame. And you don't strike me as someone who has the balls to accept the truth so why bother. x] Later loser, lol.
Honestly, that is a stupid question to ask. The Mayas now have no connection or the understanding their ancestral ancient calendar except for the Mayan elder of today.
"AnahuacNicanTlaca": Firstly, IF you noticed, I WASN'T addressing my question to YOU! Secondly, it should be OBVIOUS to the person I WAS asking, that, if he/she didn't know the answer to my question, then he/she should ask a Mayan elder...DUHHHHHHHHHH!!!
this crap is soo fake.. theres scientist who say this is BS.. that if you go to artict youll see the temperature has gotten colder over the years. that they dont understand where these other scientist are getting these ideas from..
Velenx, How the hell is national geograpphic supposed to stop the end of time?duh...
What's funny is everyone crying the sky is falling from climate change, & in the same video they claim the frozen earth was once a boggy marsh, yet life still continues today! another duh...
Besides everyone knows that end of the world was in 2000, another duh...
the world may have been around for 4.3 billion years, but humans haven't.. every 10 thousand years the poles shift, what if that is the catastrophic event that supposed to happen? lol never know, really human kind was supposed to die in 2003, Comet Neat, nearly struck the sun but some how a massive solar flare deflected it right when it nearly hit it. the comet was 2 times bigger than jupiter.. thats like 1/5 the sun.. haha someone's watching over us.. perhaps..
scary how national geographic "knows" something is going to happen in 2012 but what are they doing to prevent it 0.o Answer: it's all a joke! If they have so much "evidence", *ya right* they should report it all and TRY to "save" mankind -.-
OMG THE LORD SAID HE WILL NOT DESTROY THE EARTH BEFORE HE COMES BACK AGAIN AND HE HASNT COME BACK YET AND its only 3 years till 2012 and when he comes back theres 7 years before he kills the planet!! STUPID PEOPLE!
there's no original mayan civilization today, but the descendants of the original mayans are still around, especially in mexico. Pricks like the makers of history channel will usually make you believe in stupid fantasies like the mayans "mysteriously" vanishing from all knowledge
At least they didn't say it was "MILLIONS" of years ago cuz the world hasn't been around for that long... The world has been around for 6000 years. The carbon dating that scientists use has many flaws and isn't accurate.
You don't strike me as someone who can be educated, so wasting time to explain your flaws isn't worth it. :-) No worries though, I'm sure you're a happy person, afterall, ignorance is bliss right?
lol, this is pretty funny, NWO just wants u to get scared of 2012 so they are building the hype now so everyone is paranoid and they fake alien invasion and people get really scared and then out of being scared the people submit to the government and military to get fid of aliens and that after the event this world is taken over militarily by a select few due to the agreement of the people so they cant say shit. So this 2012 is just BS lol
So in 2012 the climate will suddenly turn cold? I thought it was getting warmer ... maybe we need to make the climate warmer now to offset the cold climate change.
I think some people NEED to believe that the world is going to end in their lifetime. As scary as it might be, I think for some it beats acknowledging that the world is going to continue on without them.
@JSM10069 I never thought of it that way. I always thought that people think so much of themselves and love the cares of this world so much, that their EGO will not let their minds accept that the END IS NEAR. Hurry!!!
If you look at other cultures in Asia, there is no prediction of doomsday and they are just as sophisticated as Mayans. It makes good television cause people like stimulating programs =)
weither u want to know it or not the earth WILL go into a DRAMATIC change as of when i dont know and im unsure it any1 does but a flash freazzing can litteraly cover the earth within a mater or ruffly 1 week that is almost a well known fact.
This is the death of knowledge as we know it. How come national geographic is interested in this bullshit??? answer: its aboiut money. They are promoting the movie 2012 coming up next week. shame on you NG
how do we know the 2012 thing to the mayans are just to them time restarting. it could just be their limit where they restart but nothing really happens
lol i just finished studying the mayans in my ss class, and i dont give shit about the 2012 prophecy, the sooner the world ends the better, then we dont have to deal with college!! but noooo! i'll still be a virgin!!
lol your calling the mayans lazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they built all these amazing temples and monuments and lived in a time with no electricity or the luguries we have today and your calling them lazy... are you fucking retarted!!!!! wow i hate idiots who post random shit on things without even puting a little bit of thought into it
for one thing the mayan calender is a fucking rock, go look it up yourself. and are you part mayan?? because you are being a total kissass to them. I dont care what they did. Do you know why they spent all their time trying to figure out when the world will end? Because their life without electricity or any of the other good things sucked ass and they wanted to know how much longer they would have to deal with it.
man... you don't even fuckin' know how disgustingly accurate their calender is. the fucking gregorian calender we follow is bullshit, it begins at the year jesus was born and it's here just to measure time. it doesn't correlate on a galactic scale like the mayan calender. i truly hope you're right about 2012, i hope western ignorance pays off in the end. a poleshift or rising tides would suck ass for mankind and the ocean, it'd be 95344568 times more polluted.
that's not something we can prevent, nor is it a possible event you can just break to the world. people are stupid, people would go apeshit about that. last time we aligned on the glactic plane was 25,800 years ago. can you tell me what humans were up to back then? nothing. we do know we've gone through a lot climate wise since then. at that time humans were barely crossing over the land bridge from siberia to alaska.
you must be going apeshit since you've been doing your little nerdy ass research on a stupid ass topic. I'll be laughing at your ass in... guess what...2013 fucker
National Geographic loses its dignity and credibility with these superstitious astrological showboating. Climate "influences culture." Duh! Catastrophic events occur irregularly and always correlate with cultural adjustments to these events. For example, plagues and wars are often associated with climate events such as draughts and climatic change.
you all know this can actually be true wen you think about it i mean just about every culture has a story about the world s creation changes and catastrophes that just happen and weve all herd one of those stories so i could be true that the earth is going back to possible its original form before the climate change
i took a shit at exactly the same time as sunrise today....is that why the sun rose?...we have lost the scientific egoless state that made the Enlightenment possible...as our technology grows we retreat more to superstition...that is the real "wheel"...technology and anthrocentricity....
c'mon Nat Geo! Im part Mayan and even I find this association kind of ridiculous. 2012 marks the end of an era, not the world. and how could ancient people know the exact date of a climate catastrophe when weathermen with satellite and radar cant figure out next week's temperature!
This is not the only evidence that sometimes climate can change quickly not slowly. People have a notion of the all wise scientist. Well they do study but are just as often wrong as anyone else. We know very little and that is one reason why I am a man causing global warming skeptic.
I like to weigh out all of the data, from various sources. Noone is completely accurate. Also, there is an alternative end of the calendar date 10-28-2011. The world runs in cycles. I find this information fascinating. thanks for posting it.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Everyone below me better get on ur knees and start to pray! pray to ur blonde hair blue eye jesus, my ancestors are wrong!!! WE get the last laugh!. White america!!!!!!
This will put your blonde hair jesus to the test! The Mayans are putting jesus chrits into a test!!!!! VIVA MEXICO!!!!!!!!
LOL were are u getting this information from? most Latinos are Roman Cathlic. Don't be scared man, just accept the fact we are being sacrifice to the Mayan god!!. and only the suffering & blood shed of Humans will Satisfied him... ACCEPT IT!!
Carbon 14 dating has a +/- 1500 year margin of error. The exactness of the measure of the Mayan calendar is more accurate than carbon 14 dating which can have great variance.
Nor is the Roman Calendar of what we believe and base all events BC to AD. There is a margin of error here too. The whole discussion of 2012 is almost mute because the actual event of 2012 my have already happened several years ago.
I can't quite remember it now as I'm home sick with h1n1 and it's rather hard to concentrate with this mega cold... But there were a couple years in the past 2-300 centuries where the world was unusually cold, resulting in darkened skies and cold summers.
Anyone who falls for this stuff is just... Weak minded.
Those periods of time where the world has been cold were due to large volcanic eruptions emitting millions of tons of ash into the atmosphere. An eruption large enough could have caused the temperature to drop fast enough for those plants to die. And since they were digging them out of what looked to me like ash, it's not so far-fetched.
I cannot not wait till this happens, White america has turn us Mexicans into slaves!, but we get the last laugh! Viva mexico! & viva Maya!!!! this is the ultimate human Sacrifice to the Maya gods!
White America??? Uhhhh.......news flash! There are 12 million of your fellow Mexicans living right here in America you dumb ass. Not to mention all the other non-white races that are happy to call America their home. And if the poles do shift I can assure you nobody will be laughing.
you guys are just scared!!! accept it! we are finally going to be part of something far greater! and not even your blonde hair blue eye jesus christ can help you!
You do realize that the earth just doesn't go WHOOP and shifts its poles, right? It's a gradual 5,000 year process and has already begun.
Humans will adapt, life will go on.
National Geographic and The History channel are just front lining this shit to get the whole shock/fear value audience, little uneducated and moldable minds.
YES! I absolutely realize that! Hell, I was kidding! I This is all just a bunch of hyped up bullshit. The galactic alignment thats going to come about happens every 26,000 yrs. Why should the world end this time around?
he didnt say the world would end, he said that another ice age could onset rapidly. he has proof and yet you dont believe the evidence. no wonder there are so many ufo skeptics out there, even if they plopped the evidence in your face you still wouldnt listen. buy a good jacket...peace
I agree with you and I also think they air this because there are audiences that wants to be fed this. You can't please everyone right? Fear works in wonders.
people are not suppose to know when the world ends!the world ends is when god comes to earth!only god knows when the world ends!god is doing it whenever he wants!so it might not happen on 2012!people said last saturday at 6:00pm the world will end but it didnt!!!so it wont probably!thumbs up if u agree

This is not the only evidence that sometimes climate can change quickly not slowly. People have a notion of the all wise scientist. Well they do study but are just as often wrong as anyone else. We know very little and that is one reason why I am a man causing global warming skeptic.

I like to weigh out all of the data, from various sources. Noone is completely accurate. Also, there is an alternative end of the calendar date 10-28-2011. The world runs in cycles. I find this information fascinating. thanks for posting it.

Carbon 14 dating has a +/- 1500 year margin of error. The exactness of the measure of the Mayan calendar is more accurate than carbon 14 dating which can have great variance.

Carbon dating isn't a definitive source of information.

Nor is the Roman Calendar of what we believe and base all events BC to AD. There is a margin of error here too. The whole discussion of 2012 is almost mute because the actual event of 2012 my have already happened several years ago.
MichaelFalcone 2 years ago
Exactly!
I can't quite remember it now as I'm home sick with h1n1 and it's rather hard to concentrate with this mega cold... But there were a couple years in the past 2-300 centuries where the world was unusually cold, resulting in darkened skies and cold summers.
Anyone who falls for this stuff is just... Weak minded.
jreed136 2 years ago
Those periods of time where the world has been cold were due to large volcanic eruptions emitting millions of tons of ash into the atmosphere. An eruption large enough could have caused the temperature to drop fast enough for those plants to die. And since they were digging them out of what looked to me like ash, it's not so far-fetched.

Not so far fetched as an instantaneous pole shift? lol

Weak minded = fear minded. It's a result of the inability to critically think.

Poles are gonna shift. Hope you people in New York have some really, really, warm clothes.
Dedhedted71 2 years ago
You do realize that the earth just doesn't go WHOOP and shifts its poles, right? It's a gradual 5,000 year process and has already begun.
Humans will adapt, life will go on.
National Geographic and The History channel are just front lining this shit to get the whole shock/fear value audience, little uneducated and moldable minds.
Nothing is going to happen.
This is just another Y2K.

YES! I absolutely realize that! Hell, I was kidding! I This is all just a bunch of hyped up bullshit. The galactic alignment thats going to come about happens every 26,000 yrs. Why should the world end this time around?
Dedhedted71 2 years ago
The galactic alignment is just a giant ass eclipse. Maybe the world will be dark for a couple minutes.
Then it'll be done.
Nothing will happen.

I agree with you and I also think they air this because there are audiences that wants to be fed this. You can't please everyone right? Fear works in wonders.
