Do you think the secrets of the Universe is under the Sphinx as some think? The Egyptian government refuse to permit a scientific dig.

Makes em too much money.
Dunno, the mysteries of some buildings is fascinating. |
|
By:
They sure are. The three Giza Pyramids align with the three brightest Stars of the Orion Belt, Alnitak, Alnilam and Mintaka. Why? Surely can't be down to mere coincidence.

There was obviously some extremely clever peeps about even all those years ago. Ahead of their time? Aliens? Time travellers? Mancs?
Wish i knew mucker, but do not forget, peeps have been using astronomy for an awfully long time. Da Vinci interests me mostly; an absolute seer. So far ahead of his time it's unreal. Did he have help, don't think so or he would have built that goddamn helicopter. Look at his eyes. |
|
By:
He was certainly a genius and like you say so far ahead of his times that it makes one wonder. What do you think of the hidden Alien "theory" in the Mona Lisa?

By:
Intriguing, but most of the things known about Da Vinci are intriguing. That's why he fascinates me. He was called a "Universal Genius", wtf that means who knows. There are pics of him young and pics of him shortly before death, what happened to the rest?
Ye can read a lot into any painting mucker, just like coal in a fire.. |

By:

I`ll take a look later after the football.
Do you remember Walwyn horse named Leonardo Da Vinci which was owned by Wildenstein? Won the Maiden at the Craven and they thought the sky was the limit. Didn`t quite reach the dizzy heights expected but a decent horse. |

Has to be Maxim & Kalashnikov with their guns?
Some Scots eejits no doubt. Dunno the top racecourse but Ally Pally the 2nd one? |
|
By:
Yer half right. Browning and Kalashnikov. Maxim is the first photo with his machine gun.
Ally Pally correct. Other one is Stockton. Scots geniuses ye mean surely and a few yankee ones. |

I thought you meant in same post with Kal. That is Browning the famous gun inventor.

Wouldn't have got that.
John or Mary? [ This image is no longer available. ] |

Edison sure was but they say he stole a lot of Tesla`s ideas. It was reported that Otto Skorzeny allegedly confessed on his death bed that he murdered Tesla in 1943 and stole his secrets for Hitler`s Third Reich. Did you ever come across that story? I don`t know if it`s true but Tesla was definitely bumped off, imo.
|
|
By:
No doubt, heard and read a few theories on Otto Skorzeny (the coont lived in Ireland after the war) and none would surprise me.
Tesla was murdered and see above. |
|
By:
Perhaps that is how the Nazis managed to develop The Bell and other advanced technology in the last few years of the war. The disappearance of The Bell after the War is a big mystery and very interesting. Some say the Americans have it in Area 51. Another theory is that it was a Time Travel machine and some top Nazis escaped into the future. It is undisputed though that it was an anti gravity machine and Tesla was working on such technology. I know it sounds nuts but if we knew half of what was going on we would be totally astounded.
|
|
By:
I never knew Skorzeny ended up in Ireland.
|
|
By:
Yup.
Nothing would surprise me from the past. If ye love history (as i do) then there is soooo much fact that is stranger than fiction there is no other way to look at it.. |
|
By:
Wouldn't ye like to visit Area51?
As the invisible man of course.. |
