Yauni Air Force has an outstart applying this has been
found and there's now in the possession of They a
with the game and really changed the game game.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
I occasionally think how quickly our difference is worldwide would
vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside
this work.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
And this is Day to Black.

Speaker 4 (01:02):
It's your host, Jimmy Church on the Game Changer Radio Network.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
All right, welcome, I'm back Fade to Black Monday, June thirtieth,
twenty twenty five. I am your host, Jimmy Church, who yeah,
made it back, made it back, all right, So I've
been gone for almost three weeks, and tonight we are
going to do a recap, a recap of my trip

(01:33):
to Peru and Bolivia. A couple of things to note
right here at the top of the show. If you
are listening to the audio version of this show right
now and not watching the video, you can because tonight
is heavy on pictures, video and all the stories, of course,
but head over to our YouTube page, which is Fade

(01:58):
to Black Radio. Fade to Black. You probably know where
that is. Already, But anyway, you can head over there
and watch everything that we are going to present tonight.
But if you watch, if you're just listening on the podcast,
you can listen through theater of the mind. You can
imagine everything that I will be describing, and everything is

(02:18):
going to be up there for everybody to see, and
you can just imagine it and then head over to
our YouTube channel and see if the two match. So
that's what's going on tonight. I have over one thousand
images and videos. A lot of these are duplicates. I've
got a system here, hopefully in place where I won't

(02:40):
be showing duplicates, and I hope that the system works.
We shall see, But there you go, all right, So
a quick update on everything else this week on Fade
to Black. Tonight obviously is our Peru Bolivia recap special.
Tomorrow night Meyer is with us, Jesus had an NDE.

(03:04):
Wednesday night, Lance high Tower is with us, a dog
Man in the USA, and then Thursday night, Eric Wargo
is here. We're gonna be talking about precognition, time travel,
and UFOs, all of that and much more. On Thursday night,
I have one major event coming up that's at the
end of this month. It is the PI Games August

(03:25):
first through the third, twenty twenty five in Charlotteville, Virginya.
All right, all right, now I mentioned earlier today, I
will go ahead and knock this out once again. Yes,
I have been gone for three weeks. The first four
days I was out of town filming and shooting episodes

(03:48):
for Beyond Believe. Yes, the announcement has now happened, and
I am the host of Beyond Belief along with George
and for now. And the premiere of the first episode
was last week with Jimmussan. We've got I've got more

(04:10):
taping every single month for the rest of the year
to do. We've got other shows in the can and
they will be rolling out all right, all right, So
I want to thank Guya TV for the opportunity to
step in Beyond Belief. This is an incredible, incredible thing
for me personally to do, all right, for me to

(04:33):
be in my position and asked to do this is
absolutely incredible.

Speaker 3 (04:39):
It's like somebody pinched me.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
So there you go.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
That was the big announcement that we have been building
up to all year.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
Now everything else it's up to Gaya on how they
want to roll out the shows and the marketing and
everything else. But as they do the market I will
share everything with you, all right, all right, yeah yeah,
And I said earlier today and I really mean this,

(05:09):
I want to thank all of you because without you,
I wouldn't be able to do the things that I do,
like present this Peru Bolivia recap tonight, doing Fade to
Black every night. It was all of you that helped
me straight into hosting Coast to Coast and now Beyond Belief. Okay,

(05:30):
so thank you for everything, and I truly truly mean that.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
All right.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Now, as I just mentioned, we're gonna get straight into this.
I'm gonna do this tonight with no commercials. We're just
going to roll straight through and get through all of this,
all right. There's a lot of video, a lot of images.
If you are listening on the podcast, you can go
over to our YouTube channel and watch the show from

(05:57):
there later on and catch all the images in the video. Okay,
all right, so with that, let's get started. I do
want to I mentioned a couple of things. This trip
was special because we had the Winter Solstice celebration at Cusco.

(06:18):
It is called inti rhyming and it's ginormous.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
I did.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
I did a bunch of live streams. About roughly half
a million people arrive in Cusco for this winter solstice.
It's a huge celebration, and the night before Inti Rhyming,
which is at Saxi Huaman, and you'll see all.

Speaker 3 (06:45):
Of that in a minute, in a few minutes.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
That was pretty big, and you'll see it, but not
as big as the parade and the celebrations that go
on all month long leading up to June twenty fourth.
All right, So that's when we arrived. First, we arrived
in Lima and then flew to Cusco immediately for in

(07:12):
Ti Rymie. And I didn't I didn't get it. I mean,
I knew, I've seen pictures, I've heard the stories, but
I've never seen it for myself. But we arrived in Cusco,
and that's where we are going to start off tonight.
So let's go ahead and do that. This is the plaza,

(07:33):
the square in the middle of Cusco, and as you
can see, there's one of the Spanish churches. There are
two on the main plaza. And this is nothing compared
to what ended up happening, But this is the very
beginning of everything. That's that's the plaza with this beautiful
Spanish church, and there are bands and there's all kinds

(07:56):
of things going on. So let's go ahead and move
on from this. And this is a little taste of
Ati Rami. The preview absolutely amazing. And that's just like

(08:41):
I said, that's just a little taste.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
Let's keep going.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
This is like a scene from The Godfather, Godfather Part two.
I've never seen anything like this. Look at these guys.
This thing is heavy too. I don't know which saint
is on there. They're parading a lot of them through here,
and right behind this one is another one.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
But it's just.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
A celebration all of the culture. Everybody out in the streets,
everybody smiling. And right behind it, there's another one back here.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
Let's see.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
I might have some images. Yeah, right there. It's just
one after another packed. It's a couple one hundred thousand
people in this square and this is this is one
of the things that I so enjoy about Peru is

(09:48):
the culture is is vibrant. People here. It's it's a
it's a different here in the United States. And I
I say this all the time, so I'll keep it
brief here in the United States, our culture is just
a couple of hundred years old, and it's a mix
of cultures from around the world. But you know, I

(10:09):
don't know what's the oldest thing that we have here
in Palmdale, pizza hut or something. It's different when you
are out there dealing with these cultures that are thousands
of years old, it's a bit different. It's wonderful to
see and to witness. And so when you go and

(10:30):
to a parade and you're seeing something like, you know,
this being carried down with so many people in the street,
it's unbelievable. It is so crazy to see and to witness.
And let me back out of this for a second.
And this is one of the things that I appreciate,

(10:54):
you know, just getting out there and going around the
world here in the United States. If you've never left
the country, get a passport and go. Even if you
just go to one one, even if it's just Peru
or Egypt or England, Germany. You know, it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter. Just go and pick a country and

(11:15):
go and visit it and see the culture, eat the food,
see the people, smile, laugh and experience it. And then
you'll look at the United States in a completely different way,
all right now, Like this this next video here, we
took a walking tour that we do every year with
Brian Forrester through Peru or through Cusco.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
And Cusco is ancient. It's ancient.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
Nobody really knows how old.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
This city is.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
It's it was built in stages, for sure. You can
see it all over the place. But the megalithic structure
throughout downtown Cousco is extraordinary and you see it everywhere.
Let me be very clear on what I'm talking about.
We have three distinct eras in Peru, three distinct. There

(12:10):
are layers in there too as well, but three distinct.
We have the megalithic, right, we have the Inca, and
then we have the Spanish. The megalithic is first and
is the oldest, and that's all the complex polygon structure
wall constructions that we talk about, and we're going to

(12:32):
see it here. Nobody knows how old the megalithic is,
not only how old, but how far back.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
Truly it goes. We don't.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
So when you say megalithic, that's the construction type and
it was there when the Inca arrived then the Inca
built on top of it, and you can see distinctly
where the Inca tried to imitate the Megalithic and when
the Spanish came in and defeated the Inca. The Inca
were there for one hundred, one hundred and fifty years.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
That's it. Then the Spanish built on top of that,
and you.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Can see the layers of construction. So when I'm talking
about the Megalithic, it is the oldest stuff there. The
Inca stuff is great, but the Megalithic was first.

Speaker 3 (13:21):
So let's pop.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
Up this video here. This is one of the streets
in Cusco, and this is megalithic construction. And let's see.
I don't know what this video is. There's a bunch
of stuff here. So look at that. It just simply

(13:44):
goes down both walls of that street. That's a street
that right now people are walking home, but cars go
down two as well. And when I pop this back up,
you can see it's on both sides of the street.
And that's Brian Forster over here telling everybody about what

(14:05):
we are seeing. Okay, here is just another video of
the same area.

Speaker 3 (14:20):
Wanted to dive. Oh I know why there's two videos there.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
Somebody walked in front of my camera on the other one,
so I just reshot it. Here is Brian standing in
front of the famous twelve sided stone. Again, absolutely incredible
when you look at this and you see it all over.
We're going to go through this right now. But it's

(14:48):
these corners that I find so intriguing. How and you
see that little notch right there. It's those types of
corners that confound everybody. Look at the block and that
little mini block under here in this one. That's that's
unbelievable to see and to witness. And there are so

(15:10):
many of these throughout Oh hang on for a second
throughout Peru. To give you an idea of the size
of the stone. That's me, that's Brent.

Speaker 3 (15:25):
Look just look at that.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
But that's not the most interesting part. So when you
go up above it, look at these four stones right here.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
Boom boom boom boom.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
Five in a row that are all notched right here
all the way down. So everything above it has to
work with what's below it. Everything has to fit. It's
an incredible thing when you see it in person, and
it just goes on and on and on, block after

(15:56):
block after block after block, and you're just watching these
these little intricate little corners. Now I'm going to show
you here. This is a video where I just follow
the line and these are perfectly square blocks. They look
perfectly square at first, and then you go up and
you look and do you see these little notches?

Speaker 3 (16:19):
Now?

Speaker 2 (16:19):
You can see it right here? You see that notch?
You see that now when you back up, it looks
like a straight line. That looks like a straight line.
When you look at this really close, there's a notch
right here. There's a notch here.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
Now follow this. I just this is.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
Random, something that you can do anywhere in Peru.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
This is in Cusco. Pasure notch notch, notch notch.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
It's extraordinary. I'm this is just random. There's when they're
and this is just one set of blocks right in
front of me.

Speaker 3 (17:13):
Look at that now? Is that back up?

Speaker 2 (17:15):
It looks like those are just perfectly square blocks, but
they're not. You zoom any and you take a really
close look, and what do you see? You see these
little tiny notches and they are everywhere. It's one of
the coolest things that you can see. And so what
I had done and I do this every time I'm

(17:38):
with people, is I show them their first notch.

Speaker 3 (17:43):
Just take them up to the wall.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
You see that right there, you see that little tiny thing.
This entire block, this entire country is full of those
tiny little notches where these blocks are formed together, and
then you see that little notch. I would venture to
guess that there are millions of them in Peru. How

(18:06):
the construction got done and the significance of that, I
don't have any idea. Here's a series of photographs that
I took. There's one, and I love this because going
this block is probably.

Speaker 3 (18:28):
One and a half feet wide one.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
Foot tall, this wall down this street, and then when
you walk up, they look beautiful and they look perfect,
and you can't slide a credit card in there. You
can't do any ass slideer piece. But you can't, obviously.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
But it's when you take the.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
Closer look and you see this right here, that's incredible.
And I gotta tell you, as a tourist, this is
one of the things that I'm most impressed with.

Speaker 3 (19:09):
Stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
It's incredible, and nobody knows. Here's here's the thing. We're
talking about, something that's really really ancient. All right, Nobody knows.
Nobody knows how they did it. There are so many ideas.
I have my own. You know, uh, where things heated?
You know, how were they formed? Or they cut and

(19:32):
placed and recut and placed and recut and placed.

Speaker 3 (19:34):
I don't know. I don't know. It seems to me.

Speaker 2 (19:37):
That whatever they were doing, it was easy because we're
talking about walls constructed taller than your house that's just
stretched forever in both directions with this type of construction.
Here is a really cool block.

Speaker 3 (19:56):
This is in Cusco.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
This is a really cool block, and these holes connect
to each other. I'm guessing if I was going to
make a guess, I don't know, I would say that
that is plumbing inside of a house. Again, nobody knows.
This is just sitting sitting on the ground in a
church in Cusco. And I might even have a video

(20:22):
of this.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
Let's see.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
Yeah, right here, I'm guessing plumbing, that's my guess. These
all look like channels gutters for a house or to
release water out of something. But yeah, again, very very

(20:46):
impressive to see. I have no explanation for any of these,
but really interesting to look at. And nobody really knows.
This is a shot of the Sacred Valley. I think

(21:10):
we are on our way to Peasock. If I am
correct here let me let me just go ahead and
advance this a little bit. And yeah, the Sacred Valley incredible.
You can see here the terracing in the background. This
is the terracing that occurs all over Peru. And this

(21:32):
is just a little taste at the entrance of the
Sacred Valley. And here we are, like I said, on
our way to Peasock.

Speaker 5 (21:42):
This.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
Let me show you this. I'll make this really quick.
This is a statue on the top of a hill
and from the ground, this is an extreme telephoto close
up of it. This is a woman with her child
on the top this mountain. There's a whole story that
goes behind and don't have the time to get into
that tonight, but that's it. That's the statue right there,

(22:10):
sitting right there, and this is from the bottom of
the hill. But I looked up and saw it. I went,
what is that? And that's when everybody said, that's a
statue of a woman and with her child, and I
got the full story. But again, I say this all
the time about Peru. No matter where you go, no
matter what you do, yet just turn your head and look.

(22:35):
And in this case, we had stopped a quick stop
restop and I turn around and I'll look up on
this hill. I'm just looking around the opposite side of
where I just showed you the terraces into the Sacred Valley,
and I see this and I get the full story
about what it is and how it got there. And

(22:57):
that's the beauty of Peru, no matter where you go. Okay,
this is Peasock here. Let me pull this up as
a quick video boom. That's the town of Peasock below.

(23:17):
I have a lot of friends that live there. It's
a very spiritual place. And this is the entrance to Peasock.

Speaker 3 (23:29):
Yeah, this is cool. Hold on for a second. Let
me pop this up.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
Look at that ancient terracing. This is a huge inca
fortress with the entrance. But look at that. It's just
incredible to see. Now, So what they would do with
this terracing. There's part of the fortress. This is a huge,

(23:59):
huge hue complex. This is just a little taste of
the beginning of it. But the terracing itself. Yes, it's
on the steep side of a mountain, so they have
to terrace it, but also because of the radical altitude
changes that occur as the terracing goes up. You go

(24:19):
one hundred feet up the mountain, you know, ten of
these terraces high. Now you're in a different climate and
it's a different type of vegetable or potato or whatever
it is that they're growing. That's why there are two
three thousand varieties of potato. Where potatoes originated from in Peru.

(24:42):
It's because of these altitudes, and they would experiment and
get the correct species of potato or vegetable corn to
grow in certain altitudes that won't grow on another terrace
higher or lower, but specifically. That's why it's terraced like that.
So once they develop something that will grow right there,

(25:05):
that's the type of potato that they grew on that
terrace for that season. And it's incredible to see.

Speaker 3 (25:14):
And you see this.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
All over Peru. These terraces are huge. Here's an example
if you want to see what I'm talking about here,
Each one of those levels is ten to twelve feet
high on its stairstep and done for climate, done for climate. Incredible. Okay,

(25:39):
let's see what we have next. This is the road
to Peasock okay, let me stop this.

Speaker 3 (25:47):
This is an.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
Example of another megalithic wall in Peasock. Just incredible, incredible
to see. This is the entrance to Peasock, obviously guarded heavily.

(26:13):
Two people could pass through.

Speaker 3 (26:15):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
It's a big stone wall. You can see part of
it is megalithic, absolutely beautiful and all of this, my friends,
this is the very first day, second day in Peru.
This is me and my friend Mike at the entrance

(26:37):
of Peasock. Again, this is heavily guarded. You can't get
into Peasock without Here's a really cool shot of a
part of our tour group.

Speaker 3 (26:49):
That's Michael hang as dad. This is Down.

Speaker 2 (26:54):
And her sister from New Zealand. This is Bridget her
daughter's back here, Katalina. They are from Oregon. This is Pamela.
That's one of her sons back here. That's I Rene.
Pamela's from New Jersey. Uh yeah, yeah, I'm just trying

(27:15):
to go through everybody here.

Speaker 3 (27:17):
I think this is Steve and uh and of.

Speaker 2 (27:20):
Course that is Willco, our tour guide. But that's part
of our crew at the entrance to Peasock. And now
next is okay, so next is Kenko, saxy Juaman, this

(27:43):
is above Saxey Woman, This is Kenko, and uh a few.

Speaker 3 (27:50):
I don't have the time to go through all of
this with you.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
Obviously, this is a megalithic stone that was important to
the Inca. The Inca built this protective wall around it,
uh to protect the stone. The stone itself is natural,
but it's beautiful. The structure in the background has got
channels on the top of it. They would channel liquid.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
And water and.

Speaker 2 (28:13):
Corn beer through to make predictions with. Yeah, all right,
so that's that's a whole nother story there. It's a
very interesting one. I just don't have the time to
get into all of that. To give you an idea
of the size of the structure. You can kind of
see it there. It's behind me about one hundred yards
and that is Kenko. It's got a very interesting labyrinth

(28:36):
in it that I have talked about in the past.
And this is me walking through the labyrinth. This is
a quick video. This is behind that large stone that
you're looking at, but this is it here.

Speaker 3 (28:50):
This is the labyrinth.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
That's Rachel walking in front of me, and in front
of her is Brian Forrester.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
But check this out. This is This is incredible.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
To to see one of the many tunnels at Saxy Juaman.
She's looking down into the second tunnel below. What you're

(29:20):
gonna see here in a second. That's how big this is.
It's huge.

Speaker 3 (29:26):
It's beautiful, absolutely beautiful.

Speaker 2 (29:30):
Rachel is from Texas. Her husband Jude, he's the cardiologist
that you may have seen in some of my videos.
And this is the exit out. Okay, this is a

(29:53):
quick video here. This is the backside of Kinko where
you exit the labyrinth. And this gives you an idea.
I'm going to say that these stone walls, this is
all cut by the way and shaped thirty feet tall,
maybe one hundred feet wide. But this is it here

(30:17):
and you can see how it is shaped and cut. Incredible, incredible. Okay,
this is the entrance into the cave with the sacrificial table.
Let's go ahead and get that running. Don't know a
whole lot history and archaeologist, it's obvious that this is

(30:41):
a table for something. Brian Forrester speculates his theory is
that it was for the mummification process to mummify a body.
I've heard others, just archaeologists, that this was a table

(31:03):
for sacrifice. There's not a whole lot of reports of
sacrifice in the past and with the incas and so forth,
but this could have been much much older than that.

Speaker 3 (31:14):
But here you go. This is incredible. Watch this.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
This is a very complex cave system. You can see
there are levels and things that are shaped out of
the rocks. Here is the table here, and there's Brian.
It's very very interesting. It's very powerful piece of stone.

(31:58):
And you can see the complex geometry in here to
cut all of this out of one piece of rock.
The stairs, the additional rooms and so forth, incredible to see.
And then here is the exit.

Speaker 3 (32:15):
But it's stuff like this that you.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
Can see in Peru that you just cannot see anywhere
else in the world. And when I suggest to anybody
to go to Peru just to see this for yourself
and experience this type of paradigm shift. This is me
entering another cave on the way to Sexy Huaman. I

(32:40):
think my camera dies in the middle of this, and
then I have to shoot. I shot a second video.
We'll see. This is a very very very dark cave.

Speaker 3 (32:53):
As you can see.

Speaker 2 (32:57):
Yeah, oh my camera doesn't die. I get stuck in
the dark, and here I go here picking up once
I got my camera light on because I couldn't see.
It's very claustrophobic. It's very creepy. It's very cool, and

(33:19):
it's very fun. It's not for the faint of heart
if you can't deal with the clausterphobic black.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
There's no lights in here. Cave to the entrance of
Sexy Homon.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
Tight cool, huh, very cool. Okay, now coming up, all right,
so there are as we come around the corner here,

(33:56):
there's one more cave, this little one here, and then
there is Saxy Juoman. Okay, so now this is what happened. Okay,
all right there it is all right, all right, all right,
So let me just tell everybody what happens immediately after this.

(34:22):
There is some very smooth, weathered stones at the top
of Saxy Juaman that you climb up to.

Speaker 3 (34:32):
And then on the other side, sex and woman's right there.

Speaker 2 (34:35):
And over the last couple of years going up there,
I've seen kids and people slide down this natural formation
and it's incredible. So this year, as our group goes up,
this is what happens. People are sliding and they're taking
the slide and then somebody says, Jimmy, do the slide.

(35:01):
Then I hear it again, Jimmy, Jimmy, go do it.
We'll shoot a video. Jimmy, Jimmy, I gotta do it now.
So I did, and I got injured. I got injured bad.
So I'm gonna show you the video here. I haven't
posted it online. This is for all of you to see.

(35:21):
As and I'm moving. I didn't think it was going
to be that fast. As I hit the bottom, and
you will see it, my leg, my right leg buckles,
and I honestly truly thought I broke my leg. I
saw it happen. I saw how hard I hit, I

(35:42):
heard it, and I thought I broke my leg. Turns
out I didn't, as you will see. But this is
the video for the first time. You ready, Okay, just
watch the end. We'll watch it a couple of times,
just for grins. It's me at the top of the
Here we go, watch the impact at the bottom. Listen

(36:04):
for it. Boom there it is all right, one more time.

Speaker 3 (36:20):
Boom. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
I thought I broke my leg, and that's all the
I didn't trim the video. That's all that Rene had shot.
She shot it on my phone by the way, so
my leg, yeah, you can see it. Buck went to
the side and I thought I broke my leg and
I stood up and it wasn't broken, but I felt
the pain and I went up to the top of

(36:47):
Saxy Woman.

Speaker 3 (36:48):
I knew it.

Speaker 2 (36:48):
I knew something bad had happened. I struggled to the
top of the hill. I shot the one video of
Saxy Woman, and I turned to Rene and I said,
I got to go to the hospital, and so let's
go here. This is the video that I shot, which
is right up at the top of the hill from

(37:10):
that slide here it is. Let's go ahead and show this,
and you can hear me breathing. I am in extreme pain,
all right, I'm make it at the top of the hill.
I'm trying to walk it off. But I knew I
was seriously injured, so I shoot this. And please note
you just saw the video I was done.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
You can hear me breathing.

Speaker 2 (37:45):
Those a part of the stands that are built for
Anti Rhymi, which is going to happen in a couple
of days. That's the beginning of the stage that's being built.
All of this is full of bleachers and stands for
everybody in here yet. But I come back around and

(38:05):
I finished this video and that's when I turned to
Irene and I said, I got to go to the hospital.
I barely got this video shot. I barely made it back.

Speaker 3 (38:21):
To here.

Speaker 2 (38:22):
I couldn't stand and I knew that I was stuck.
I was stuck in here and I had to somehow exit.
Saxy Huaman and I did.

Speaker 3 (38:35):
I did.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
We made it out. I hobbled out. I limped out
and made it to the ambulance which is here.

Speaker 3 (38:46):
There, it is.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
There, it is.

Speaker 3 (38:51):
Ern Is.

Speaker 2 (38:54):
I'm trying to smile. Look at my leg is up.
I'm trying to smile. I'm in a lot of pain.
And there was a doctor there. Her name was doctor Soto.
They gave me a shot of steroids or something in
my butt. That nurse did the one that you see there,
and she's laughing because I was trying to crack jokes.

(39:17):
I was in a lot of pain. The doctor was
very nice. This's them taking my blood pressure. I was
in so much pain, man, I was.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
I was not.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
I was not in a good place. But I did
want to bring the tour group down. He's got a
power through this. This is the doctor here, doctor Soto.
She was amazing and they were able to prescribe meds
and muscle relaxers and painkillers and everything else right there
off of the ambulance head to pay for it. But

(39:50):
she's a doctor. She prescribed everything that I needed, and
I was elected later not to go to the hospital.
I just went back to the hotel, took the meds
and just tried to go on the mend the best
that I could. But doctor Soda was amazing, and look

(40:12):
at her. I turned her and I said, how old
are you? She goes, twenty nine. You're a doctor. I'm
a family doctor.

Speaker 3 (40:19):
I'm an MD.

Speaker 2 (40:19):
Chad, perfect English, I'm an MD. I said, you look
like you're eighteen. She could Yeah, I get that all
the time, and she goes, I get that from my
mother's side.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
She was very nice. But that's what happened.

Speaker 2 (40:32):
I hit the ground really, really, really hard. And now
here's the crazy part.

Speaker 3 (40:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:42):
I was in a lot of pain, and I still am.
It's better now, But I had said. Everybody was repeating
over and over again. I don't want to make this
about me, I really don't. But it could have been worse, Okay,
I could have broke my leg and ended up in
a hospital and then had to fly back to the

(41:02):
United States with a broken leg.

Speaker 3 (41:05):
None of that happened.

Speaker 2 (41:05):
It could have been even worse than that. All I
did was stretch and tear out a bunch of ligament
into my knee and tore the muscles on the back
of my calf severely. But at least nothing broke all right,
All right, here we are getting on an airline somewhere

(41:26):
in Peru. I think this is flying from Cusco to Puno.
I could be wrong, but that's what that is. It
was just a beautiful morning. Oh yeah, look at this shot.
Look at this, Look at it. That's that's the morning
in Peru.

Speaker 3 (41:43):
How beautiful is that?

Speaker 2 (41:44):
So I think we're going to Bolivia next. And this
is everybody. This is Gustavo Morales. He is our tour coordinator,
handler of logistics. He is the camp counselor, he's the boss.
He is absolutely amazing. I've known Gustavo for a long time.

(42:07):
He's also an amazing musician, and he also rides a motorcycle.
But he's really, really, really cool, and his knowledge and
ancient knowledge of Peru and Bolivia is extraordinary, and then
you tie all of that in to his very professional
tour management. He's absolutely the very very best. Everybody, please

(42:31):
say hello to my good friend Gustavo Morales. I don't
know where Brian Forrester met him, but or how they've
known each other for a very very long time. But
when you meet somebody like that, you don't let him go.
All right, This is me arriving. This is Lake Titty

(42:51):
Kaka the first. I don't know if this is in
the evening. No, this is in the morning. I think
this is in the morning or.

Speaker 3 (42:58):
Is it in the evening. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
That's Lake tittycock in the background. This is the city
of Puno right here. This is our hotel, the Jose Antonio,
that is on the opposite side of Lake Tittykoka and
then faces out towards Puno. It's a very very stunning
site to see. Here's another shot of Pono without me

(43:20):
in it, and that is the south west side of
Lake Tittycocca. All right, okay, now here we go, All right,
here we go. Here is the floating islands of Lake Tittycocca.

Speaker 3 (43:41):
Let's pull this up.

Speaker 2 (43:42):
This is us as we first pull in.

Speaker 3 (43:50):
So now.

Speaker 2 (43:55):
This is a good video. This is a good long video.
This is the first part of the island village. Those
are all floating islands that you see in the background.
So every little house in structure that you see is
floating on an island. I'm gonna pause it right here
in just a second.

Speaker 3 (44:12):
This is a pan through.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Those are all floating islands, and they're all tied together
and anchored to the bottom of the lake.

Speaker 3 (44:21):
All right.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
So each one of these islands has four or five,
maybe six families living on it with four or five
six houses, and each island has a mayor.

Speaker 3 (44:35):
All right.

Speaker 2 (44:36):
So now let me pause this here so you can
see that's around island right there. That's a house. That's
a house. That's a house. That's a boat docked on
the island. That's a structure built on the island. That's
an island right here. And these are one of the
reed boats. They look Egyptian. I've talked about this a lot.

(44:57):
When you look at this, that's made out of reeds,
same thing that the islands are made out of. These
are reeds that are tied together. If you see this
yellow arch right there, that's the entrance into this little
island that's just you know, I don't know, maybe seventy
five feet across. It's round. There's a dock in the front.
That's the entrance to the island. As you can see,

(45:18):
they have solar power and they have that's a water
system right there. Now again, just like anything else when
it comes to Peru, is go to Peru to see

(45:39):
this for yourself. Go see an indigenous culture that is living. Now,
they've got like I said, you know, they've got solar power,
they've got organization. But they've been doing this for a
long long time. So the reeds are tied together, they're bundled.
Those are bundled together. The bundles of the bundles are

(46:01):
tied together and and cut and shaped, and then they
layer the reeds on top of that. The island floats,
and then they run rope down with rock anchors that
hit the bottom of the lake to hold the islands
in place. Now what am I talking about. I'm gonna
show you this is an island right here.

Speaker 3 (46:21):
Check this out.

Speaker 2 (46:23):
I'm standing in the middle of it. It's our boat.

Speaker 3 (46:34):
That's the whole island. One two, three, four four.

Speaker 2 (46:43):
It looks like four families live on this island and
that's it.

Speaker 3 (46:48):
That's it, Okay, So take a look at this again.

Speaker 2 (47:01):
It's amazing, mind blowing, incredible, incredible. So go and experience
something like that. It's right out of any history documentary
that you can imagine, or National geographic and the mutual

(47:21):
of Omaha's Wild Kingdom.

Speaker 3 (47:23):
And you see this.

Speaker 2 (47:23):
Stuff on TV and you just wonder, is that possible
to have a culture like that, living like this and
existing and surviving and and paying attention to their history
and everything else? How do you survive? You know, look
what about cattle and pigs, and well, you've got to

(47:45):
go on shore for so much stuff. They can do
fishing from here, they can cook from here, they can
live from here, they can build their houses from here.
But what about everything else? What about textiles and cotton
and corn and all of that is brought in from
the mainland.

Speaker 3 (48:03):
You need to think about that.

Speaker 2 (48:04):
And they have to have a system in place to
pull all of this off. They live on floating islands
and their transportation are boats and until very recently read boats.

Speaker 3 (48:17):
Incredible.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
After we docked the boat, this is the Devil's Dance
statues there in Puno. These are incredible. I took a
bunch of pictures of them. This is a very famous, popular,
serious Bolivian dance called the Dance of the Devil, and
these are three different sculptures representing this dance. This is

(48:43):
our tour bus. This is the second level of the
tour bus, a double decker bus. This is the front
of the bus looking out.

Speaker 3 (48:52):
Again.

Speaker 2 (48:52):
I'm just taking random pictures, okay. So these are the
cisterns of s Eustein up on top of a hill.
This is one of my favorite stops that we do
in Peru, and the village itself is one of the nicest, cleanest, beautiful,
happiest places. It's just wonderful to visit. And the people

(49:14):
of this town are incredible. And I'll posted pictures of
Brian and I a drinking coffee from here. Now there's
a story behind this image, so I'll share it with
you right now. There was a cataclysm. Something happened very
cosmic here. Don't know if it was a meteor strike.

Speaker 3 (49:33):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (49:33):
If it was a soul or flare or something else,
but the rock in this town in certain spots completely
vitrified and turned the glass along the surfaces of it,
and you can see this large cistern here has been
blasted out. That's only half of it, and the rest
of it from the top of the hill is tumbled

(49:55):
out and over. The reason why I was not up
on the hill with everybody else is because of my
leg and I couldn't make it up the hill on
this particular day. This is our crew. This is everybody.
So I'll just scan through and you can see everybody.
There's Michael, there's Rachel. There's Jude. There's Bernie that looks

(50:20):
like Steve.

Speaker 3 (50:20):
Back there. That is.

Speaker 2 (50:24):
Let me, let me zoom back in. There's Catalina. That's Gustavo.
That's William. That's Yeshuah and his brother. There's Pamela. This
is Morna. It's our friends from New Zealand. I'm trying

(50:45):
to get through all of this, says Teresa. That's her husband, Mike.
They're probably watching right now and I'm being tested. That's Terry.
That's Richard. That's Wilco in the background. This is Mia.
This is Terry's daughter. She's absolutely amazing and cool. This
is Audrey here, this is Dane, and this is Dane's father.

(51:11):
All right, I think I remembered everybody's name.

Speaker 3 (51:13):
Wow, wow, wow.

Speaker 2 (51:15):
I hope you guys are impressed.

Speaker 3 (51:16):
All right.

Speaker 2 (51:16):
So that's our crew on their way.

Speaker 3 (51:19):
Up the hill.

Speaker 2 (51:19):
I didn't go because I had a ripped out knee.
Oh here we go. But I took that other picture.
That's why I'm not in it, because I'm the one
that took the picture.

Speaker 3 (51:29):
So there you go. That's everybody. Okay.

Speaker 2 (51:33):
This is Brian and I at the coffee shop. He
hung back with me because of my book. I'm smiling,
but now my leg is torn out. It's just torn up.
This is us sitting having coffee, waiting for everybody to
come down the hill. But look at the sun, look
at this beautiful town. And there we go. So that's
see steen. Okay, this is all of as seat a restaurant.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
I don't need that now, Okay.

Speaker 2 (51:57):
On the outside of town here we all go to
this little farm, little tiny ranch, and I might have
some pictures of it. But above entry ways and on
the roofs of houses, there's a tradition that you have
a protector of the house on the roof or at
a doorway. Now I'm gonna show you some of these protectors.

(52:21):
I took some pictures. Again, you would have never You'll
never see this anywhere else. But this is why Peru
was so wonderful. Look at that. This is a farm.
It's made of mud bricks as you can see, and stone.
That is a mud brick doorway. It's old, man, it's

(52:43):
as old as the hills. And these are some protectors
on the roof. And they're always in twos, by the way,
male and female. There's some more.

Speaker 3 (52:58):
You see it.

Speaker 2 (52:59):
Everywhere all over Peru and people, you know, especially your
first time there, and you're not asking any questions and
you see it.

Speaker 3 (53:04):
You just think it's decoration. But that's what it is.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
These are protectors on the roof. This is the owner
of this farm, the wife of the owner. She's amazing,
by the way, she's absolutely amazing. It's my third time
hanging out with her.

Speaker 3 (53:21):
And there you go.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
There's another protector of a doorway that is a condor. Incredible,
just absolutely incredible. This is Puno at night from our hotel.
And look at the reflections in the water. I'm trying

(53:49):
to get through this as fast as possible. Okay, so
here we are. This is Puma Punku. I've got lots
of video and stuff. I'm gonna fly through this. I've
talked about Puma Punku a lot. This is the arrival
at Pumo Punku.

Speaker 3 (54:03):
Here we go.

Speaker 2 (54:03):
Now, Puma Punku dated to at least fourteen thousand years ago.
Nobody knows anything about the site or its purpose, how
these stones were cut. A lot of this is andesite.
Giorgio Suklos over the years has mentioned diorite basically the
same and the hardness scale, but this is and aesite

(54:24):
from the Andes Mountains, very hard stone. But how was
it cut? Without metal or technology that we know about today?
We look back at Puma Punku with a modern set
of eyes, and so we're imagining, well, wait a minute,
this is before the Bronze Age. They didn't have tools

(54:44):
or metallurgy. You know, how did they make these intricate
cuts and these holes and these drill holes in these
right angles and smooth surfaces, which it's all over the place.
It's everywhere in Puma Punku, and you see it all
over Peru, but certainly this spot in Bolivia.

Speaker 3 (55:00):
Puma Punku is unique.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
And so to have a date of fourteen thousand years ago,
that pushes back everything that's before go Beckley Teppe. And
how is it that any culture back then could carve
out of stone with the resources that they had. They
didn't have any trees. This is the high desert. This
is at thirteen thousand feet, so there's no trees. There's

(55:24):
barely any vegetation at all. And so what do you have?
Chicken bones? I don't know, cowbones, something I don't know.
But this is a series of shots and videos for
Puma Punku. I'll describe it as we go through. You
can see the h blocks. This is at the front

(55:45):
entrance of Puma Punku. This is one of the excavation
sites at Puma Punku. Just to give you an idea.
They've done limited excavations there. Most of it they've just left.
Look at a site like this. Those are the excavation
walls right there, okay from the archaeology. But in the

(56:06):
middle you can see stones that have not been dug
up yet. They're just sticking out of the ground right there.
How big is that? I don't know. These are just
stones in the ground. And many places in Puma Punku
you trip over stuff you're walking and you kick something
in the ground like this that's just sticking out. How

(56:30):
big is you know what's on the other side. I
don't know. The archaeology has just stopped. There's again representative
of the portals that I talk about a lot. This
is a lentil stone on the top of a couple
of other stones. Look at this curve, Look at that.

(56:54):
There's the first set of H blocks. It is when
you first enter put Punku. And I love this because
the doorways, the portals that I talk about that are
all over Puma Punku.

Speaker 3 (57:07):
There's one right there.

Speaker 2 (57:08):
You can see the lentil stone, you can see the carving,
and if you look really close, you'll see one on
the interior of the H block right here. There's probably
one inside here. Yes, you can just see it. I
have plenty of photographs of this as we move along.
It's one of the most fascinating aspects of not only
Pumo Punku Team Naku, but even Egypt. I have photographed

(57:29):
these portals all over the world. I've done a lot
of presentations on this. Here's a video of me walking
around Puma Punku and let me see if I get
some audio up. I don't know what I'm saying or anything.
Oh the audios down. Look at how flat that is. Okay,

(57:56):
I'm gonna play this again. Let's play this again. Now

(58:16):
when I pull the camera down right here, you can
see that's thirty forty feet down flat. Look at that flat,
flat flat, All those stones and these all interlock together,
and these are ginormous stones. So I'm just gonna roll
through this. There's a key lock right there. There's another
key lock right there. There's another key lock right there.

(58:38):
There's another one there. There's another one here. There's a
couple more over here on this side. So we have one, two, three,
four giant stones here that all fit together, and then
they fit together with the stones next to that. These
stones each are about three feet thick, ten to twenty

(58:59):
to thirty feet ye ten to twenty feet tall. It's
huge and just billiard flat, billiard ball flat. It's just
incredible to see. So I've got a lot of those.
Here's another h block, one of many. You can see
the portal here. Brian seems to think that this is

(59:21):
like a quarry mark or a mark from the artist.
I don't think so. And my take is I think
that's a portal. I've seen them around the world and
There's plenty more to see in tonight's presentation, but there
you go. There's an H block. Here's a video of
some H blocks. I can pause each one of these

(59:42):
and you will see a portal right there. All right,
so let's continue down this right here, this is a
triangle symbol on this one stone that is unique only
to this particular stone in all of Puma PUNKU don't
know what it means. I've got some other photographs of it.
Here is another portal. There it is. It's the same

(01:00:03):
symbol that is on the inside of the H blocks.
Let's continue. This is just an entire rope. Look at
how everything is carved, you know, fourteen thousand years old.
So much fun to do this. There's there it is.
Look at this symbol here, how it's cut right next

(01:00:25):
to another portal. I don't know. I don't know what
that means. It looks like an arrow, doesn't it like
enter here? A ha, don't know. I don't know. So
there's another if I if I just stop, let's let's

(01:00:46):
play this again. There's a portal, portal, portal, portal, portal.

Speaker 3 (01:00:53):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:00:54):
I don't know what they are. There's another one these
are just a series of photographs. If I took the
time to photograph every single one at Puma Punku or Timanaku,
I've got a bunch more coming. Or throughout the rest
of Peru. You'll see that this is everywhere. So Brian's
idea that it's quarry mark for the h blocks, fine,

(01:01:16):
but then there's quarry marks like this at Tiawanaku. There's
quarry marks like this throughout Peru. The Sumerian culture had it,
Egypt had it. So I don't know. I think there's
something else to it. I think it's a portal, a
representative of something. So I photographed a bunch here. There's
another one, there's another one. There's another one right here.

(01:01:42):
So I just kind of ran around Puma Punku just
to share. Oh there's another one right here, just sharing these.
It's just incredible to see. Now as we back up,
I did a bunch of shots here. Now you can
see the original keylock video that I showed you that
was way over here. That was this series of blocks.

(01:02:04):
But you can see they all come down to this
side of Puma Punkou and these all lock together and
you can see that they're shaped together. Now to have
it Is it the floor of a giant temple? Or
is it the wall of a giant temple? If it's interlocking,
why interlock the floor? You would place it on the

(01:02:26):
ground and they wouldn't move. You wouldn't necessarily need to
lock them together. Maybe you would.

Speaker 3 (01:02:32):
I don't know. I don't know. Nobody knows.

Speaker 2 (01:02:34):
But when you see here how far it goes from
here to here in each one of these locks together,
and it's placed together like giant puzzle pieces. The depth
and the thickness of this. Let me go to this
next shot. You can see here these are slots. This
is a slot slot slot, slot, slot, slot, slot, slot, slot, slot.

Speaker 3 (01:02:58):
One hundred yards long of slot.

Speaker 2 (01:03:00):
It's just one hundred yards. So if these were all
tipped up, were the walls tipped up? And were these
the caps of the walls?

Speaker 3 (01:03:07):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:03:08):
Was it supporting pillars coming up this way? These slots
and these giant stone giant These stones here with the
slots in it are about six feet thick, forty feet wide,
and uh ten feet deep. I might have some other
I do have some additional shots of these stones which
are different than the wallstones that are here. All right

(01:03:32):
there it is right in a row. Look at this,
Look at that. See the slots, See how they go
all the way back. This is where the keystones were
back here, all right, those all those keystones, all of
this locks together all the way down to here. And
then you have this. Yeah, it's incredible, incredible. Look how

(01:03:52):
thick from the back side of this. You can see
how thick this is. It is super thick, super thick.
That's the back of it. That's how thick this stone is.
Those are the slots right here.

Speaker 3 (01:04:06):
But look at this.

Speaker 2 (01:04:07):
That's one stone. That's the slots. That's a person right there.
To give you an idea of what we're talking about here.
And then look what's below there's another portal.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
One of many.

Speaker 2 (01:04:27):
Now the reason why I took this picture though, if
you look closely, there is writing. Now, It's been talked
about a lot. There's no writing. There is no language
at Puma Punky, there is nothing there. Really, what is this?

Speaker 3 (01:04:46):
You ready look at that?

Speaker 2 (01:04:53):
That looks like writing to me. Let me back up
here right here, well, looks like somebody is saying something
nobody talks about. It hasn't been deciphered, but that's very

(01:05:14):
interesting to me and that's right there.

Speaker 1 (01:05:20):
More.

Speaker 3 (01:05:20):
I've got some ideas about this. We've got too much
to go through.

Speaker 2 (01:05:25):
Yeah, these symbols here are incredible, but if if you
look up here, we've got more. Now, how is it
that they made these types of cuts in and a sight?

Speaker 3 (01:05:39):
Look at that? Look at that.

Speaker 2 (01:05:45):
Now the stone next to it, this one was probably
deeper underground. This one here is a little more damage
with surface damage. And you see that a lot in
Punku or you'll see one stone that is nearly perfect
and one that is weathered. Maybe this was sitting on
top of this when it was buried.

Speaker 3 (01:06:04):
Don't know. I wasn't there. There's some more portals for you.
Look at that.

Speaker 2 (01:06:11):
How did they carve that? There's another portal. I love
my portals everybody. I will go and shoot these everywhere.
There's another one. There's a video of a bunch of portals.
There's one there that wasn't there. There's another one.

Speaker 3 (01:06:35):
This is.

Speaker 2 (01:06:38):
The backside of the H blocks.

Speaker 3 (01:06:41):
I might have a video here. That's the backside of
some H blocks. That's the backside of the H blocks.

Speaker 2 (01:06:50):
I just sitting in the ground, just sitting, just sitting,
just sitting in the ground.

Speaker 3 (01:07:07):
What is the purpose of that those kind of look
like hinges. Was there something on the inside. I don't know.
I just don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:07:15):
Here we are Puma Punku. Went down the row of blocks.

Speaker 2 (01:07:28):
Originally completely covered in dirt, excavated, brought up. I'm placed
in a line here. This isn't the original.

Speaker 5 (01:07:41):
Site of Puma Punku. We can only speculate.

Speaker 3 (01:07:45):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:07:48):
That's one of the most important points about Puma Punku
is this portal portal type of portal symbol, which is
all over Puma Punku.

Speaker 3 (01:07:57):
You can see a drill hall there.

Speaker 2 (01:08:00):
Drill hole is that we're looking at the stones as
they were pulled out of the ground and they just
placed them in a row. That's it. As they excavated,
they just popped them in a row, and this is
where they are sitting now. There there here is an
H block, another one. So look at this H block.

Speaker 3 (01:08:24):
There's the portal there it is there. Yeah, I'm fascinated
with these portals. I am.

Speaker 2 (01:08:34):
I don't know what the symbol means, but it's everywhere
I talked about my recent DMT experience is to them
and I saw this portal in a so it it
means something. It's speaking to me. And like I said,

(01:08:55):
I've shown this a lot. I've photographed these all over
the world. Other researchers they I don't know if they're
making the connection or they they don't talk about it
because they can't figure out or theorize why. All I
know is I see it everywhere, and once I pointed
out to you, you are going to see it too
as well.

Speaker 3 (01:09:17):
There it is, there they what it represents. There is again.

Speaker 2 (01:09:24):
But I got to tell you it's pretty cool to
walk down a row of these H blocks and and
see them is unique.

Speaker 5 (01:09:36):
To pom.

Speaker 2 (01:09:46):
So let's continue. I've got so much more to show it.
The incredible day here Booma, Punkou and Bolivia here with
Brian Forrester, and we are alone here at the site.

Speaker 3 (01:10:01):
We have it to ourselves, beautiful day perfected.

Speaker 2 (01:10:16):
Here is one of the rare symbols at Puma Punku.
This is a snake. There's something else here. There's also
a spiral here, but.

Speaker 3 (01:10:27):
This snake is pretty unique. It's pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (01:10:34):
And there is a spiral symbol up here, and I
might have tried to capture it here. I might have
it in another image. I'm familiar with the H blocks,
of course, but this huge So here I am just

(01:10:58):
showing you these these interlocking blocks, and I wanted to
put together a complete video for narration later. But there
are there's the key locks there, and that's what I'm doing,
is showing you all of the key locks throughout this

(01:11:19):
first set of stones. Okay, this is the backside of
Puma Punku. The remember, Puma Punku is not just the.

Speaker 3 (01:11:26):
H blocks in the front.

Speaker 2 (01:11:29):
It is a huge square shaped temple complex on the backside.
It is theorized that Lake Titti Kaka was higher uh
and went to the backstairs of Puma Punku. There's a
stairway that could have been leading down into the lake
when the shoreline was there. This is a series of shots.

(01:11:53):
The H blocks are back up over this hill.

Speaker 3 (01:11:57):
Straight behind you. Right here, that's where the h.

Speaker 2 (01:12:01):
This is a quick video showing you this stone work. Now,
if you look look at the stone work here, it's beautiful,
it's precise, it's elegant, and it's ginormous. So we talk
about the H blocks, We talked about the stuff that's

(01:12:21):
going on in the front of Puma Punku. Yeah, it's great,
it's amazing. But when you see this and you're looking
now at how much precision stone work is done in
these walls of Puma Punku. So this is just a
series of videos. The structure itself is probably a quarter
mile on each side, and this just continues. It continues

(01:12:49):
all the way down, very precise stone work. I'm shooting
and walking, shooting and walking. It looks like these are repeats.

Speaker 3 (01:13:01):
It's not.

Speaker 2 (01:13:02):
You can see how the stone work on the second
level is repeating.

Speaker 3 (01:13:06):
This is a tunnel.

Speaker 2 (01:13:08):
This is a cave at Puma Punkou that goes into
the hill.

Speaker 3 (01:13:11):
Again. I talked about a lot. There's the entrance to
it right there, and uh, yeah, it's pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (01:13:18):
There's some pigs on the outside of Puma Punku. Yeah,
this is just a stone in the ground in Puma Punku.
I don't know what it is. Look at that, it's
just sitting there. It caught my attention, so I shot
a video. I don't know it's purpose. I don't think
anybody does. But there it is, just sitting on the ground.

(01:13:39):
It's one of the beautiful things about going to a
site like this when I say you can just trip
over stuff. Here's an example of something that I tripped over.
There's another stone there. Now, this is the backside of
Puma Punku. Let me freeze this the cataclysm, the event

(01:13:59):
that I was talking about earlier, something tumbled all of these.
These are huge blocks. So as I'm walking past, these
are huge carved blocks from the wall that are probably
two and a half feet thick four feet square. I
don't know how much they weigh. They're ginormous and they
are just thrown about on the backside of Puma Punkus.

(01:14:21):
Now this is me walking through this field of tumbled stones.

Speaker 3 (01:14:26):
Check this out. Oh me, back up.

Speaker 2 (01:14:39):
Humans didn't just go in and throw these things around.
And if you look really close, you can see how
intricate some of the carvings are on these stones. But
they are just cast about and we're found just as
you see them now. So I don't know if it
was a tidal wave, it was a tsunami, if it
was a medium, if it was an asteroid, a comet,

(01:15:06):
I don't know. I just simply don't know what caused
that kind of destruction. This is the shape of Puma Punku.
This is a map on the backside. This will give
you an idea of the site and its shape, and
it is truly ginormous.

Speaker 3 (01:15:31):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:15:32):
So now this is the top of Tiyumanaku, and I
took this shot for a couple of reasons. So let
me put this up in the background right here, that's
Puma Punku.

Speaker 3 (01:15:47):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:15:48):
This is the top of Tiawanaku. It's across the street.
This is the pyramid of Timanaku.

Speaker 3 (01:15:55):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:15:55):
This is a museum here. It's a restaurant back here
that that you can eat. It's just it's a very
small part of these are cars tourist vans. As you
can see, there's like a half a dozen. This is
the museum here. But if you look in the background,
that's Puma Punku.

Speaker 3 (01:16:16):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:16:17):
And this is the entrance to Puma Punku. The archaeologists
and the historians will tell you that Tiawanaku and Puma
Punku were two different cultures. They have nothing to do
with each other. Well, that's a bunch of bullshit. Remember
the portals that I just showed you all over Puma Punku. Okay,

(01:16:43):
Now let me show you what I found at Tijuanaku.

Speaker 3 (01:16:46):
Here we go.

Speaker 2 (01:16:48):
So here we are top of Tiawanaku looking at Puma
Punku that supposedly have zero connection and I'm looking at them.
What do I find? That's that Tiawanaku. There's Puma Punku.
Then I walk over to this next stone. There's another
one right there. Oh, they're not connected. Well, it's bullshit.

(01:17:13):
They're lying to you. Here's another one. This is another
separate stone at Tinmanaku. And to tell me that these
cultures aren't the same and are not connected, that's a lie.

Speaker 3 (01:17:26):
That's a lie.

Speaker 2 (01:17:27):
I don't know why the Bolivian authorities want to separate
Puma Punku and Timanaku.

Speaker 3 (01:17:34):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:17:35):
But they fight this man, they fight this and then
that symbol is there, and that's not the only ones
they found at Timanaku. So let's continue here. Here's another one.
There's two of them on the top of the stone.

Speaker 3 (01:17:49):
Look at that.

Speaker 2 (01:17:53):
Okay, this is Temanaku. This is I'm standing on the
top of the pyramid. That is the big square over
there in the upper left ten corner. That's the temple
of the Sun. Here is the temple pit with all
of the faces of the cultures around the world. There's
only a few people at the site today. And if
you back up, that's our tour bus sitting there waiting
to pick us up on the back half of the site.

(01:18:15):
But that is Tiawanaku and will give you an idea
of the size. It is beautiful. Tiawanaku is just mind blowing.
This is the backside of the pyramid at Tiwanaku. Beautiful construction.
These walls are huge, huge, huge, huge.

Speaker 5 (01:18:37):
Ah.

Speaker 2 (01:18:37):
Look at that. It's on the backside of Tijuanaku. This
is a stone that is just sitting there in the grass.
And look what is on the back of that stone. Yeah,
no connection to pum Pumku.

Speaker 3 (01:18:54):
There it is.

Speaker 2 (01:19:00):
And it's just a stone that's sitting there and.

Speaker 3 (01:19:05):
In the middle of the grass.

Speaker 2 (01:19:07):
But I caught it.

Speaker 3 (01:19:10):
I caught it.

Speaker 2 (01:19:11):
I don't know what I'm I don't know what this
is here. Oh, this is another shot of that stone.
These are some drill holes on another stone that's just
sitting in the grass, just sitting there. But the appreciation
of these drill holes is just it's it's mind blowing
to see how smooth.

Speaker 3 (01:19:28):
Look at that.

Speaker 2 (01:19:30):
Just sitting in the grass. Man, just sitting in the grass.
When I say you trip over, you trip over. This
is just another stone and there's some stuff carved on
the top of it. But just sitting in the grass. Incredible.
This is Gustavo pointed this out. Hey man, these arrows.

(01:19:53):
So there's Grestavo. My man, this is at Timanaku. I
took this picture. Why there's a there's a key lock
right there, so that stone was locking into something. Again,
this is just sitting in the grass. You have to

(01:20:15):
stop and you have to really take note of things.
In most cases, you're just gonna walk past this, not
even look down. But if you do, you're gonna find
something interesting like that. Where's the matching stone to this,
I don't know, but this one is just sitting there
for thousands of years. There it is. Look at that

(01:20:36):
sitting in the grass. Oh, look at this. Another portal
at Tilwanaku, not connected to Puma Punku.

Speaker 3 (01:20:48):
Look at that again.

Speaker 2 (01:20:53):
This is just another stone sitting in the grass that
most people just walk by, and I did. I walked
by to just something caught my eye and I stopped
and there it is.

Speaker 3 (01:21:07):
I got that, just sitting in the grass.

Speaker 2 (01:21:09):
Now you can see in the background, you can see
how arid this is. There's no trees. There's nothing here.
Any of the trees that are growing in this area
around Timanaku are modern. Okay, this is high desert at
thirteen thousand feet. There's nothing growing up here.

Speaker 3 (01:21:29):
But look at that. Look at that.

Speaker 2 (01:21:30):
Look I'm gonna get to the bottom of this. This
is another stone that I just walked past that looked
really interesting. With these with these holes and what their
meaning is and purpose. Here's the famous temple with all
of the faces of the cultures from around the world,

(01:21:53):
and of course the one of the Alien Gray. But
if you look at all of these, they're all different,
different noses, different bridges, different eyebrows. Some have hair, some
have beards, some have turbans, some don't. Some look Asian,
some look African. It's pretty incredible to see. Look at

(01:22:16):
that face. I mean, I don't know, I don't know.
Some of these are pretty incredible. I took a lot
of pictures before I run out of time tonight. There's
the Alien Gray right there. There he is, and a
lot it's been made of that particular stone. There he is,
that's me, I mean, compared to everything else there yet

(01:22:38):
is definitely interesting. This looks like a mummy. He's all wrapped.
But yeah, to see this is just a video of everything.
There's a lot of videos of this. I think it

(01:22:59):
is proof that there were many cultures from around the world,
transoceanic that was coming through here and people met up
and talked and spoke. This is the sungate. This is
the entrance to the plaza. Beautiful picture. You got really

(01:23:22):
lucky with that. You're not allowed to go up here.
There's lots of guards and stuff, so you can't go
up there. But you can see the weathering and the
wear and these steps. I find that interesting. Some of
its square, some of it is not. Is it from
rain water over the years, Is it from oceans, is
it from something else, from a flood? I don't know,
but anyway, so but look at this. This is lined

(01:23:44):
up with the sun and you can see this is
the winter solstice too as well. So we've got a
pretty nice alignment happening with the sun at this point.
And yes I took that picture. This is straight off
of my phone, straight to you. There's another shot of
it again. See how this this step is square. This
one is completely rounded, and so is this one. The

(01:24:06):
one here, but you're not allowed.

Speaker 3 (01:24:07):
To go up there.

Speaker 2 (01:24:08):
This is as close as I could get to a bit.
What a beautiful picture. The construction is just incredible. This
is one of the columns at Tiawanaku. Now this one
always has reminded me of a go Beckley teppe with
the arms and the way it comes around. You can
see that there's a belt right here, and there's the hands,

(01:24:29):
one on the belly, one on the heart, and there's
the face.

Speaker 3 (01:24:32):
I love this.

Speaker 2 (01:24:34):
I love this particular statue. Pretty incredible. And it's big.
It's big. It's sitting in the ground. It's probably fifteen
feet tall, three four feet wide, foot and a half thick.
That's Rachel back here by herself, getting soaked up by

(01:24:55):
the sun. She doesn't know this, but I was taking
this picture over. I took this one too as well,
in and I sent that to her. But she's stood
there for about fifteen minutes, just getting her son on.
Oh oh, okay, so we have now left Tiwanaku. It's

(01:25:15):
one of the glaciers in the background. I'm not sure
how many feet this is, but I'm guessing, oh, this
might be. Uh, this is fifteen thousand feet, I think.
I mean, I'll tell you no, no, this is not
this is another glacier. But look, yeah, this is fifteen
thousand feet. And so this is just an incredible shot.

(01:25:37):
Fifteen thousand feet. Not much oxygen up here. This peak
in the background right there, you can't see if that's
covered in snow, but remote, man, this is fifteen thousand feet.
That's a church right there. Catholic Church at fifteen thousand
feet is coming in and marking its territory. Fifteen thousand feet.

(01:25:59):
This is the highest freeway in the world.

Speaker 3 (01:26:06):
At fifteen thousand feet.

Speaker 2 (01:26:11):
Yeah, there's Steve. So I'm just gonna flip through this.
There's me, Brian and Mike again. Fifteen thousand feet. That's Michael.
Here's this peak in the background.

Speaker 3 (01:26:26):
Look at that.

Speaker 2 (01:26:28):
So I'm standing at fifteen thousand feet. I think Brian
said this is twenty four thousand feet. That particular peak,
Mount Everest is twenty eight thousand, So that's how high.

Speaker 3 (01:26:39):
Up we are.

Speaker 2 (01:26:40):
We're getting up there. I posted pictures of this dog
every trip that I've had in Peru.

Speaker 3 (01:26:45):
This is one of the restaurants.

Speaker 2 (01:26:47):
This is the owner's dog, and she is beautiful English
lab and I've hung out with her every year that
i've been there. She's totally cool. Elongated skulls in a
front of ours museum and this is when I was
photographing way Kei, which is coming up.

Speaker 3 (01:27:08):
Elongated skulls. Incredible.

Speaker 2 (01:27:10):
Here's way Kei. I told you about way Kei over
the years. There she is. She's approximately two years old.
Fontinell is still open. The ribs are pointed in the
wrong direction. There's ten ribs, not twelve. You can see
the eyes are large. It's got adult molars. Yeah, very interesting,

(01:27:33):
very interesting. Wai Key is about a foot tall, foot
and a half tall, not very tall, eighteen inches from
the bottom of the mummy to the top of the skull.
And so you can see the skull is about half
the size of everything else that is here. But the

(01:27:53):
skull itself is probably the size of a large baked potato,
about that big. The face says about this big right
eyes and the mouth, but that's on the bottom half.
And the skull points up. It doesn't point back. It
points up and you can see it here. It's just
flipped through these images. I took a bunch. It came

(01:28:16):
out of the womb just like this. Now next to
it is another mummy. Uh, it's brother, its sister, don't know,
a royal mummy that was found on its side. If
there's any evidence of et visiting Earth. I think you're
looking at it right here. This child was born this way.

(01:28:43):
That's not boarding or anything else. You don't have the time.
It's only about two years old. But you can see
see the shape of the skull goes up, it doesn't
go back points up. Okay, here we are at int rhyming.

(01:29:12):
This is the parade the night before. I got a
lot of videos, a lot of other stuff. Let me
look at the clock. We're running tonight, everybody without commercials.
And if you are listening to the podcast and you're
not seeing the images, go to our YouTube page for
Fade to Black. The links are on our website at

(01:29:32):
Jimmy Suretradio dot com.

Speaker 3 (01:29:34):
You can sert YouTube.

Speaker 2 (01:29:35):
As well, and you can watch all of the videos
and everything else that I am doing tonight. All right,
So this is inti Ronie. This is the night before
the celebration of the Winter Solstice. This is the parade
in downtown Cusco. I don't have an official headcount, but

(01:29:56):
from what eyewitnessed and what I walked through and what
I saw somewhere in the neighborhood of a half a
million people, I think that's a pretty good guess. Certainly
north of two hundred and fifty thousand. I mean a
huge crowd, and I say a half a million people.
This is just one little tiny street here, and you

(01:30:17):
can see how packed it is. And it's everywhere you look.
Every street has packed. This is from our restaurant, and
there's me and Mike, and that's the parade going here.
These are the people watching the paray. These are dancers,

(01:30:38):
one after an hundreds. I think every town in the
country of Peru is represented in this parade. It's wonderful
to see.

Speaker 3 (01:30:47):
There.

Speaker 2 (01:30:48):
We are at dinner, all right. There we are at dinner.
The parade is going on right over Mike's shoulder, and
it was loud. So there's our dessert. This is out
in front. We are on our way to Inti Rhymi.
And that's me with a little lamb. I'm just scrolling

(01:31:15):
through as fast as I can. Okay, this is at
the festival of Inti Rhymi.

Speaker 3 (01:31:23):
I don't know in what order.

Speaker 2 (01:31:25):
This is at Saxi Juaman. This is us entering, so
let me just go further. This is the crowd on
the hill facing the video that I showed you of
Saxi Juaman earlier. That's where I was standing. I was
standing up there, remember when I hurt my knee. That
was right on the other side of this hill right there.
That's where the slide is that comes down on the
back of this hill. So the video that I shot

(01:31:48):
of Saxi Juaman was from this vantage point as you
can see now, and it's covered with thousands of people.
These are the stands and we are entering the stadium
for the celebration. Let's just continue here. This celebration has started.
This is from our seats.

Speaker 3 (01:32:04):
Breathtaking.

Speaker 2 (01:32:05):
See by the way, I'm wondering whether the video is
not popping up.

Speaker 3 (01:32:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:32:11):
Now you can see here on.

Speaker 3 (01:32:13):
Top of the hill.

Speaker 2 (01:32:13):
These are the flag waivers. These guys are blowing cock horns.
There's like, uh, I think there's like six one, two, three,
four five six.

Speaker 3 (01:32:24):
Incredible to see, by the way. Incredible.

Speaker 2 (01:32:27):
These are musicians here mountain flute and drums and they
come running in. Man, they come running in. This is
all coordinated. There's different groups represented. There's one back here
as you can see, this is Saxey woman. You can
see the wall right there, okay, and this is us
sitting in our seats.

Speaker 3 (01:32:49):
Here.

Speaker 2 (01:32:53):
Look at that just incredible, incredible, incredible, the coordination, the choreography.

Speaker 3 (01:33:06):
Huge.

Speaker 2 (01:33:06):
I don't know why the videos aren't popping up. Okay,
this is okay, this is after Anti Rhymie.

Speaker 3 (01:33:13):
Okay, so.

Speaker 2 (01:33:16):
Yeah we left, all right, all right, So I don't
know why the videos aren't popping up. Everybody, that's weird.
Maybe they didn't download. Because this is now back in
the Sacred Valley. And if you remember last year, I
posted a picture of this woman right here making her

(01:33:37):
shawls down here, remember that video. That's her and I
bought some of her stuff this year. But that's her.
She was right there and she remembered everything. This is
her daughter and it was great to see her again

(01:33:57):
and to talk. This is part of our hotel. Though
hotel is built like a village, and inside of the
hotel it's a huge resort. This is the church that
is there, beautiful with the mountains in the background. Incredible,
And this is my favorite hotel in Peru. This is Naupa.

(01:34:18):
That's the cave right there, Naupa Eglecia and incredible. This
is probably one of the most spiritual places in all
of Peru. This is Brian Forrester's favorite site and there's
reasons for that. This is us hiking up. It's a
treacherous hikes, not easy. The cave is shaped.

Speaker 3 (01:34:37):
Like a V.

Speaker 2 (01:34:38):
You can see it there. That is the entrance to it.
This is the stone wall on the outside with portals.
I'll show you that in a second. But this is
us approaching the cave site. This is the view of
Naupa out of the cave across the valley. You can
see how beautiful it is and how steep these red

(01:35:01):
granite walls are. I's at the entrance there, okay. This
is this granite black granite block with these three portals one, two, three,
where you two people stand one sits you put your
arms here. I'll show you that in a second, and

(01:35:23):
then you do the ceremony. But that's carved out of
one block. This is in that V shape. This is
inside of the cave. Very spiritual site. And this is huge,
by the way. I'm going to guess and say this
is probably twenty feet across. There's a better shot of
it there. This is from the inside of the cave

(01:35:43):
looking out. And now look at these portals.

Speaker 3 (01:35:52):
Huh, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:36:00):
So that's how you stand here. This is Mia She's
seventeen years old, traveling with her parents and Terry and
Jay and so to have a family do this ceremony,
it's pretty cool.

Speaker 3 (01:36:21):
Pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (01:36:23):
Mia got a taste of being enlightened and going through
a spiritual process.

Speaker 3 (01:36:31):
Cool kid, cool kid.

Speaker 2 (01:36:33):
And her parents are just man and to take their
daughter on this journey incredible. This is in the middle
of the ceremony.

Speaker 3 (01:36:44):
Jay's in it, man, Jay's in the zone. Jay's there.

Speaker 2 (01:36:50):
This is from the top of the a frame of
the cave. But I wanted to show you the view
going out with these portals on one side. There's another
set on the other side. But again, there they are.
And I find this interesting too as well.

Speaker 3 (01:37:09):
There they are. I just don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:37:13):
It's exactly the same as what's on the h blocks.
That's what's at Tiuanaku, what's at the Temple of the
Seven Gates in Karnak in Egypt. All over Egypt. Another
ceremony with Pamela and her two sons. It was a

(01:37:39):
good meditation. This is the stairs going up the cave
is back here in the background. I got to tell
you when you had these megalithic stairs like this that
go up, which seems like forever. There's no railings, there's
no handrails, there's nothing. This is as treacherous as against
plus zigzags back and forth, but totally worth it. It's

(01:38:02):
one of the coolest spots. Here are some Peruvian doritos
and I gotta tell you pretty dang good. Yeah, all right,
this is Orientate Tombo. Everybody, I did all of this
on this broken knee. I just heavy, heavy medication, not

(01:38:24):
talking about it. Everybody would come up, So how you doing.
I'm fine, I'm fine. I wasn't fine, but that doesn't matter.
Tour goes on, tour goes on. So here we are
oyent Tate Tombo heading up, so I'll bang through this.
This is halfway up Orientate Tombo. Some of the most

(01:38:45):
magnificent megalithic stone walls in all of Peru are at
this part of the site.

Speaker 3 (01:38:52):
And I just love this. I just love this.

Speaker 2 (01:38:56):
Look at look at that corner, man, oh where I
got lots of shots of this. This is halfway up
oyent Ta Tombo.

Speaker 3 (01:39:06):
Now, these.

Speaker 2 (01:39:08):
Could be there's a lot of different references to this,
and Brian has his ideas too as well. But this
could be a storage for vegetables. For the terracing for
potatoes and corn quinoa.

Speaker 3 (01:39:22):
Don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:39:23):
Are these guard shacks to guard I don't know, but
they're all over the.

Speaker 3 (01:39:28):
Side of the mountain.

Speaker 2 (01:39:28):
It's incredible to see. And if you look across from
Oriente Tombo there's that. There's also a fortress on the
other side. You can see what's going on down here
in the valley below here. But oyent Ta Tombo is amazing.
It's absolutely amazing. And it's when you get to the
top to the megalithic stuff as you can see here.

(01:39:50):
I cannot take enough pictures of this stuff, all of
the corners and the intricate stonework.

Speaker 3 (01:39:59):
Look at this is.

Speaker 2 (01:40:04):
Twenty feet tall.

Speaker 3 (01:40:09):
Look at that. I mean you're just looking.

Speaker 2 (01:40:15):
He's like how how And this is on the top
of a mountain and they got to get the stone
work up there and then they've got to construct it.

Speaker 3 (01:40:26):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:40:27):
This is a wall of these as you can see.
This is what they're doing here is owning. That's a
whole row. Everybody's owning. That's Brian Forster there.

Speaker 3 (01:40:41):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:40:41):
That's the entrance to oyent Ta Tombo at the top
of the hill. This is Brian doing his work. This
is more megalithic stuff on the top of the hill.
You can see Spanish reconstruction here right, But this is
the megalithic. These are giant blocks. I've got so many shots.
Look at this, I don't know, six feet tall, twelve

(01:41:04):
feet wide, five feet thick, I don't know. Fifty sixty
seventy tons just sitting there gives you an idea of
its size. There's Dane, Yeah, Dane is what six foot two?
Give you an idea the size of that block.

Speaker 3 (01:41:21):
Look at that.

Speaker 2 (01:41:23):
It's me standing on the ground. That's eye level right here.
What this channel is I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:41:30):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:41:32):
What's the purpose of that.

Speaker 3 (01:41:35):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:41:35):
There's a bunch of them up on the top. I've
photographed all of them. This is probably twenty feet long.

Speaker 3 (01:41:44):
From here to hear.

Speaker 2 (01:41:50):
This is on the top of ay and Tay Tombo.
This is the sun temple on the top. There's one, two, three, four, five,
six blocks in a row. Different guestimates done with measurement
and the weight of stone that these are somewhere between
seventy and one hundred tons each. The thinner ones down

(01:42:10):
here probably fifty to seventy tons. These last three are
twice as big, just huge in a row with these
spacing spacers in the middle.

Speaker 3 (01:42:24):
And look how they're cut. See that incredible. See how
that's cut.

Speaker 2 (01:42:42):
Oi and Ta Tombo. There's another set of blocks. As
you exit the site, you can see the filler that
was done by the Spanish. That's not even inca, that's Spanish.
That's just trying to imitate, right, the megalithic, just trying
to make something cool here. I don't know, I find

(01:43:05):
it funny. This is Brian teaching. He is so good
at what he does. This is one of my friends, Alex.

Speaker 3 (01:43:16):
Oh Man.

Speaker 2 (01:43:16):
I've got some artifacts I brought back with me. I
didn't bring him in.

Speaker 3 (01:43:21):
There.

Speaker 2 (01:43:21):
It is okay. This is from Naska. I'm gonna do
a video on this artifact.

Speaker 3 (01:43:28):
I have it here.

Speaker 2 (01:43:29):
I brought it back with me. I've got a few
ancient artifacts thousands of years old. This is between five
and ten thousand years old from Nasca. And as you
can see, the IY is similar to Maria. It's got
a really cool face on the front, little nose, a

(01:43:49):
little tiny. It's old, it's weathered, it's beatina. It's ancient.

Speaker 3 (01:43:55):
And I have it. Yeah, it's incredible. I have it.
I have it.

Speaker 2 (01:44:06):
I could walk away right and you know what, Hang on,
I'm gonna go get it. Ah, don't worry everybody, It's

(01:44:47):
worth it.

Speaker 3 (01:44:48):
You ready check this out? Look at that.

Speaker 2 (01:45:12):
So I'll do some close up videos and pictures. I'm
gonna edit something together for everybody to see. There's the bottom,
there's the top, and there's the face.

Speaker 3 (01:45:25):
Look at that.

Speaker 2 (01:45:28):
Somewhere between five and ten thousand years old. Don't ask questions.
I don't need the authorities knocking on my door. How
I got it out of the country, how it is here,
or how it was acquired or any of that.

Speaker 3 (01:45:48):
But there.

Speaker 2 (01:45:49):
It is pretty cool. And I also have this. I
have a couple of other pieces.

Speaker 3 (01:45:55):
This is.

Speaker 2 (01:45:58):
A frog. Put it in the light. There's his feet,
there's his face. His feet are coming around in the
front like that.

Speaker 3 (01:46:08):
And that is a little frog.

Speaker 2 (01:46:11):
Ancient, ancient, ancient, ancient.

Speaker 3 (01:46:15):
You see his.

Speaker 2 (01:46:15):
Little eyes right here. There's an eye here, there's an
eye here. There's a little mouth right here.

Speaker 3 (01:46:21):
It's amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:46:25):
It's amazing that this has survived for song. If you
look at his at the back, he can see his
little back legs.

Speaker 3 (01:46:33):
This is old, thousands of years old.

Speaker 2 (01:46:37):
Okay, all right, so there it is. It's incredible. I'm
gonna put a video together and and I'm also gonna
have some testing done on this. But it's uh, it's
pretty incredible, pretty incredible. Okay, this is a coffee shop. Okay,
we don't need that now.

Speaker 3 (01:46:57):
This is on the way up to Machu pich.

Speaker 2 (01:47:02):
So here we go. This is at the entrance to
Machu Picchu. How you are the first to see these
pictures of a Machu pichu dog. They love sleeping and
they've got it made. And if you look, his collar
says Machu pichu on it.

Speaker 3 (01:47:20):
And he is just happy.

Speaker 2 (01:47:24):
He's just a sleep Now standing around him, oh, his
collar says Machu picha on the top. Standing around him
is like five thousand people, but they're just walking. He'sn't
that entrance a Machu pichu. This is the most touristed
site in all of South America. It's it's incredible.

Speaker 3 (01:47:43):
It's all of that.

Speaker 2 (01:47:44):
And there's a lot of people there and this dog
is sleeping in the middle of the crowd. There's a
whole there's a whole bunch of dogs I think I've
photographed him. There's there's Wilco, all right. So this is
the entrance to Machu Picchu. I'm just gonna roll through this.
I've got a lot of pictures. This is from the top.

(01:48:04):
I've got a lot of pictures.

Speaker 3 (01:48:05):
You can see.

Speaker 2 (01:48:06):
This is a section of the gabled roofs over here.
It's a temple up here, and this is the town square.
I have so many pictures, so let's just go through this.
There's Machu Picchi. I'm climbing up now, as you can
see now the gables, and I'm just continuously moving myself

(01:48:28):
up the trail to the entrance of Machu Picchu, which
is at the end of this.

Speaker 3 (01:48:32):
I'll show you that in a second. The gate.

Speaker 2 (01:48:37):
It's just a series of shots as I'm making my
way up to.

Speaker 3 (01:48:42):
The gate now.

Speaker 2 (01:48:46):
So when you look at this mountain across the way,
there's also a temple up here, and there's a ladder system.
There are people that are climbing up to this. You
have to book that a couple of years in advance
to go up there to Peachas just like this, they
just cut off the top of the mountain and put
Machu Picchu in on the mountain next door. Machu Pichu

(01:49:09):
means Maine, and this one means baby, baby mountain, Maine mountain,
baby mountain, little mountain, big mountain. As you can see now,
I'm looking down, so I'm making my way up the
mountain to the temple gate. There's Gustavo and I.

Speaker 3 (01:49:26):
Gustavo's the best.

Speaker 2 (01:49:28):
Now you can see the gables are now below me.

Speaker 3 (01:49:32):
Like, how beautiful. That is just incredible how they did it.

Speaker 2 (01:49:38):
I don't know the megalithic part, which we're gonna get
to in just a second, but to understand that this
is built in stages. This is probably inca here, but
that you're looking at this is all inca. But then
you have all of the megalithic stuff which is much much,

(01:49:59):
much much older, and I will show you all of
that in a second.

Speaker 3 (01:50:04):
But this is just incredible to see. Look at that incredible.

Speaker 2 (01:50:23):
If you look over here, sometimes you'll see people coming
up the side and people on the top, but not
in this. You can see the steps, see that right there,
you'll see people up there, not in this particular picture.
And see if yeah, there's people right there.

Speaker 3 (01:50:42):
Look at that, not me? Oh no, that's the.

Speaker 2 (01:50:48):
Stairs that it's a ladder, basically.

Speaker 3 (01:50:53):
A ladder. I'm not kidding.

Speaker 2 (01:50:56):
That's Morna sporting my Harley Davidson shirt, my Antelope Valley
Harley Davidson shirt. Okay, so let's move down. There's Gustavo.
I'm just gonna flick through this really quick. I shouldn't
be doing it this way. These are different levels going

(01:51:16):
up and that's our guide. That's Eric.

Speaker 3 (01:51:22):
Really cool, dude.

Speaker 2 (01:51:23):
Okay, this is at another level. Now the stairs are
going down, and in a second I will be at
the entrance and you can see there's all the gabling
that you were looking up at before. Now I'm looking
down into it. Let me do this and I'm gonna
oh no, it's too cool. There's another great shot. Okay,

(01:51:47):
now megalithic. So this is INCA here, megalithic here, your
typical megalithic polygon construction, INCA, Megalithic, INCA Megalithic. All right,

(01:52:17):
this is the Megalithic Square. I've got a bunch of
shots here of all of us. It's a selfies from
everybody on the tour. Everybody's in here, family for life, man.
Just a great bunch of people. This is as we
are exiting. Yeah, the movies aren't showing up.

Speaker 3 (01:52:40):
I don't know why.

Speaker 2 (01:52:40):
They might be in a different section of the folder.
There's a llama, there's Mia. This is us exiting. You
can see the Inca construction. But this is what's interesting
about this shot is if you stand right where I'm at,

(01:53:01):
you can see through three different walls. That's through three
different windows to get to this. There's another window here,
there's another window here, and there's this one here. But
if you stand in this one spot you can see
all the way through.

Speaker 3 (01:53:21):
That is cool.

Speaker 2 (01:53:24):
Now on the way out, that's Megal. I think that's
the number three too as well. Right outside of the
those windows, this is a staircase that curves around. It's
beautiful heading up here to this entrance section. Here that's
a gabled rope, but it almost looks like a castle.
How this curves around.

Speaker 3 (01:53:47):
Look at that.

Speaker 2 (01:53:48):
Incredible, incredible, incredible. Now this is the terracing system in
the background. And when you're at this part of Machipichu,
which you can see this is where where I was
taking all the pictures before. This is the entrance coming
into the Site's the that's the doorway here. So all
those pictures that you saw from the beginning, it's me

(01:54:11):
standing up here taking pictures down into this direction of
the gabled ropes. Now I'm here amongst the city, and
when you're walking through here, it is a labyrinth of
walkways and you can see it here going through the
city of Machu Picchu. This tree, I just had to

(01:54:43):
take a picture of it, Okay, So this is the
megalithic I took this shot for a reason. That's the
megalithic town square. Look at the construction of what's going
on here. That's one piece of stone to form the
bottom of this window.

Speaker 3 (01:54:58):
You see that.

Speaker 2 (01:54:59):
Now this this is from the opposite side, from the
inside of the town square. It looks like three giant windows.
This is all megalithic.

Speaker 3 (01:55:06):
Look at this.

Speaker 2 (01:55:07):
Look at that stone. Look how that's cut right, Look
at the lentils above. Does that look like the portals
that we've been looking at right? Certainly does doesn't it.
So that's that. Now here's a close up. Now, notice
how this does not match everything else that's around here.

(01:55:29):
You see that doesn't match the terracing this was here first.
That's totally separate from everything else that you're looking at.

Speaker 3 (01:55:40):
Here is this.

Speaker 2 (01:55:46):
There's a close up on a different lens because I
wanted the resolution.

Speaker 3 (01:55:51):
Look at that. Yeah, see that's inca. This is not
so Machipigi is much much much older.

Speaker 2 (01:56:12):
This is us. This is the end of the trip.
That is our tour group. This is me on my
way back to Los Angeles. And there's most of everybody
there at the Lima Airport. They're heading in one direction.
I am heading in the other. It's Catalina, there's Gustavo,
there's Audrey, there's Rachel and Jude, and yeah, there's William Dane.

(01:56:40):
What a great There's Richard. What a great bunch of people.
There's Teresa right there, and there's Mike, absolutely incredible.

Speaker 3 (01:56:51):
Back here's Brian. There's Brian.

Speaker 2 (01:56:57):
So there we are saying goodbye, and that is the
the end of the trip for me.

Speaker 3 (01:57:03):
I turned around.

Speaker 2 (01:57:04):
Oh here's movies. Okay, so there's that. Oh all right,
So that's the end of the show today, everybody.

Speaker 3 (01:57:15):
I hope you enjoyed it.

Speaker 2 (01:57:18):
I'm back and we've got an incredible week coming up
on Fade to Black for sure, and I want to
remind everybody what's happening tomorrow night is Ron Meyer's going
to be with us. Jesus had an ND Wednesday night,
a Lance High Tower is with US, dog Man in
the USA, and then Thursday night, Eric Wargo is with

(01:57:41):
us pre Cog Time Travel and UFOs was a very
interesting time for the world and for myself as I
was away over the last three weeks of traveling with
the events that have been happening around the world, it
was Yeah, it was spiritual journey to watch what was

(01:58:03):
happening in the world, but also with our tour group
and what went on and what we were discovering at
the same time, all of these crazy events that were
happening around the world. So it was a pretty interesting
last three weeks. But I am back. I will see
everybody here tomorrow night with Ron Meyer.

Speaker 3 (01:58:23):
I'll try to find out what happened with the videos.

Speaker 2 (01:58:25):
There's something that didn't load right for the second half
of the tour.

Speaker 3 (01:58:30):
Probably had lots of videos for the first half of
the show tonight. All right, So it's great to be back.
I'm on the mend. I'll be fine.

Speaker 2 (01:58:37):
I just need some more sleep and rest and relaxation. Oh,
I'll let everybody know getting back and we're out of time.
It took me thirty hours to get from Peru back
here to Los Angeles. Yeah, I left Peru on Friday morning.
The first airport was at around nine am in the morning,

(01:59:01):
first flight out of Cusco to Lima, and I didn't
get to LA until thirty hours later. Thirty hours later
of flights and airports, it was a long, long, long
travel day coming back, so I didn't get here. Today's Monday,

(01:59:23):
So my first real day back of not doing anything
was yesterday, and I had all this other work that
I have to do, and of course for the shows today.
But I'm fine. Everything's good. It's great to be back.
Thank you for hanging out with me tonight. I'll see
everybody tomorrow with Ron Meyer. Until then, all I've got
