Their biggest hoax is evolution itself. It was God that created the earth and mankind. Look, since we have unlocked the human genome (which is something these people could have never have dreamt of) we've come to realize that as an information system, it makes the most complicated computer running the most complicated software look like child's play. Computers don't accidentally happen. The ideal that everything evolved is absolute ludacris.
i love the odd topics :)! this and the mad cow one was really good
the reason for the lie is simple. He was a tool of Satan. You see satan is the father of lies. It was Christ that claimed to be the truth the way in the life and that no one could come to the father but by him. Scientists today we'll come up with the any conclusion you can pay them for. it's not about the facts, it's about the interpretation thereof
Thanks John, enjoyable as always 😊
This is why you never trust a brit
I remember my parents telling me about this; maybe it was in the Telegraph newspaper that they took and it was about the time I began school, so it could have been 1953.
When people say science should be less sceptical in accepting new / weird data, just tell them about this case. cough EM-drive cough Hyerloop cough
Creationists often use the Piltdown Man as an example of how all evolution is false, but what they don't understand is one thing which led to skepticism of Piltdown Man was the fact that it didn't fit in with evolutionary theory.
"die Kuhscheisse" 🤣
(in this case you don't need the article)
Perfection as usual, thanks
How is eugenics "racist"? 🤦🏻
This shit is a crack up!
Why would the Orangutan jaw have been sourced in Africa?
L Ron Hubbard went all in on this hoax so thoroughly it is still holy gospel for his dozen or so remaining followers.
A coconut? They thought it was a coconut?! Are they claiming coconuts migrate!! Or, perhaps they're claiming it was carried by a swallow?! Surely it couldn't have been carried by a European swallow! An African swallow, maybe, but those are non-migratory!
This was. a fraud from the very beginning!!
A wet and miserable corner of Southern London?! Is such a place even possible? 🙃
IMO, the Antikythera mechanism is a most likely a * hoax. It was common to fake antiquities back then, mostly to bring interest to their research. It is a collection of random clock parts, etc. that were acid-aged and packed into the sand from the site under heat/pressure. It continues to bring interest to archeology, it is harmless, so its provenance has not been forensically examined.
Really appreciate your reminders, didn’t see this but saw your reminder! Happy to catch up at 12:32 am on a school night
Tubular Bells, Side 2. If you know, you know.
Pt Barnum and the Fiji mermaid
I can’t wait till 60 years on from now where our current time of scientism is looked back upon in this same fashion.
Easily done at that time. He gave the idiots exactly what they want 🙄 . There zealous search for it in Britain.
Great video. More frauds, please.
Just idea of a caveman running from giant animals and playing cricket is amazing
I have a suggestion for a future video. How about covering the groundwater contamination at the US Marine Corps base Camp Lejune?
I grew up close to the Piltdown Man find area, my Grandad knew Dawson too.
Always loved how he pulled everyone's strings for as long as he did 🤣
1:29
Ah!!! Those fossilized coconuts that plague the shallow geological layers of UK!
As diggin hazards for workers, they're right up there with all those explosive bananas, what with all that potassium in them.
I've seen it but I'm watching it again anyway.
Hoax or 'proposed hypothesis' based on previous determination?
13:36 – Orangutans do not come from Africa. If the jaw came from Africa, you have another hoax. It is plainly difficult isn't it?
@6:00 Dated views on empire: "Me make chiefs of inland and coat pay two bag of wheat, never before anyone have two bag of wheat. Me chief of world, master earth and sea!"
Correct views on empire: "Not enough cities named Victoria, keep going till the map is red."
(bad joke, not sorry)
Stupid o clock in the morning? Is that when the Creationists get up? Piltdown is their favorite strawman against science.
0:25 Re-routing. Your destination is 250 feet behind you. Re-routing. Make a U-turn.
Britain becoming blinded by delusions of the Empire?
NO. SURELY NOT /s
should have used cricket balls, not tennis balls, for the "oh balls people will rememeber this" section, as the piltdown man played cricket 😂🏏
The racism aspect reminds me a lot of the questions regarding Deloy's Ape. It's interesting story as well but I don't think there are any videos about it.
Always been a good tale this one but please leave out politics and racism, too much of that sort of thing on the tube as it is.
I'd say 'fraud' – not hoax
Whoever did it, he must have been very amused to see how easily it was believed
You should do a video on the L' Ambiance Plaza disaster in Bridgeport, Connecticut that happened in April, 1977. It's a good one! Your viewers would love it! Not that the disaster was good, I mean.
Top Tier video, a little more light hearted topic works well with your subtle humour
"Stupid o'clock in the morning" is my favorite time of day (night). 🙃
You can't pull the whooly bhooly over my vidi-balls!
As always.. excellent
> It is 1908
Why do YouTubers always do this? It is NOT 1908, I know for a fact.
If you look at the foundation of evolution objectively, you’ll find a lot of lies. Darwin, Haeckel and others made up all sorts of bs. Evolution will prove to be just another world’s folly along with geocentric orbits and flat earth.
Reminds me a bit of that Belgian scientist who was dead sure he discovered a new type of radiation and could bring scientific fame to Belgium. Turned out he actually was so fixated on making a discovery, he actually not only hallucinated proof of this radiation, but also made others hallucinate the same, until outsiders tried to replicate his experiments and found nothing.
In that case, it was not malicious but desire for scientific success. If I can find the name of that scientist again, I'll post is as a reply below.
And I guess that same phenomenon, the desire to stay on top of the discovery game, did have some influence on the people involved with the Piltdown man…
