I discovered Impossible Geometry on Google Earth

- Viewing the path of the October 2023 Solar Eclipse on Google Earth led me down a series of events, resulting in the discovery of seemingly impossible Geometric shapes and evidence of an ancient civilization living among them.
I was puzzled by these objects, and I had many questions about them. So I drove to the top of this remote cliff to look at them.
I found many things here that defy explanation. One of which turned out to be much stranger than I could have imagined.
What conclusions do you think these objects point to? Do you take this as confirmation of intelligent design? Evidence of a very specific series of geologic and erosional processes ? Or perhaps, we are living in a video game (Minecraft or Roblox? )
Thanks for watching this video, and if anyone has any sort of expertise that can help me make sense of what I found towards the end of the video, how these earth blocks were formed, or the questions I posed I would love to hear from you in the comments.
If you enjoyed this video - please subscribe to The_POV_Channel and stay tuned for a lot more like this!
********* Yep. I am officially terrible at numbers. Turns out sandstone is much much heavier than 12.5 lbs / cubic foot. In fact it is much closer to ~150 lbs / cubic feet. Multiply every weight I mention in this video times 12 for a much more accurate number. ******

Ok, Thank you all. Cant believe how far I missed the mark on the pounds -per-cubic - foot weight of sandstone ☠☠☠Turns out these things are WAY heavier than I calculated. On a magnitude of 12x. The first object weighs closer to 1,354,500 lbs, about the same weight as a Giant Crane. The second object probably weighs 5,356,800 lbs which is about the weight of 4-5 Giant Cranes.
When you say giant crane, I'm assuming you mean Big Blue. There are only a few cranes in the US that heavy. Look at the counter weight on big blue
Where are you exactly?
Looks like Mega Giant Cutten CUBE BLOCKS of an Mega Giant Tempel
WOW thank you Bro for showing us

I am an adventurous soul in a disabled body. As I lay here in bed, where I've spent the majority of the last 34 years, I watch this completely enthralled and transported into a dream of life as I would have loved it to be. THANK YOU for this great gift!!!
Thank you
Your comment helped me more than you know. I'm laying here about to give up but I really do forget there's people with much less opportunities than me.. thank you
@@XboxOriginal1321. Never give up. Always fight Don’t let “ it” win.
@@XboxOriginal1321 Thank YOU so much for your comment. I have been where you are in mind and spirit. Life can be very challenging! It took me a long time and a lot of tough experiences to realize that even my seemingly insignificant life can be helpful to someone else. It seems we all have a basic need to matter, to make a difference somehow, to have a purpose. It's hard to feel one's purpose when we have so many barriers in our way. Right? I have learned to think of my barriers as channels instead. Channels that guide my energy into where it needs to be. I have come to believe my life is meant for being thankful and having a good spirit. Thankfulness has taught me many things and brought me great blessings, like YOU! Others may have the ability to make a larger impact but my little service can be part of the glue that helps hold us all together in times of trouble. I send you a big warm squeezy hug and encourage you to hang on tight! Every little thing's gonna be alright. Thank you for helping me reflect on my blessings! I absolutely LOVE moments like this. ❤️
@@XboxOriginal1321I hope everything okay!

Not gonna lie, even if there is a perfectly reasonable geological explanation for this, those damn sure look like a quarry..
Almost as if the Earth had been ravaged for resources in its history.
Scabland looking too though, when the great flood happen when the ice melted it took away a lot of material, Randall Carlson have talked about this, but don't know if this is in the same area but it sure looks like it.
It *does* look like a quarry from some angles, but from the ground it's clearly natural.
If you look at the actual spot you'll see that the cracks go much deeper and spread far wider than any quarry and there are no signs of drilling or hammering
The drawings, however, are man-made and *spectacular*
But nothing cut could cut that.
It was a civilization called annunaki. Look it up. They chewed our earth up with great machineries, yes like a quarry.
As a structural and architectural engineer I am super sensitive to geometry and you have given me the absolute best video I have ever watched....late in my 70s I can't go there to see it for myself so thank you for your great adventure

At 6:38 you can see where each new block will break off in the future, I'm not sure if it's moist or red clay in the spaces but it makes a grid pattern. I haven't seen any comments on this and thought it made it so much cooler that you can tell where it'll start receding thousands of years from now
No please stop making sense. Those are markings of an ancient civilizations quarry.
Exactly. I see them 2.

I noticed that too.
That’s what makes it so special I agree
Im just pleasantly amazed that there isnt piles of garbage everywhere.
Since i was a young boy i loved to explore, to see an interesting rock outcrop or geological feature and hike to it in hopes that id be the 1st person to set foot on the site and perhaps discover something incredible.
Without fail, EVERY single place ive ever visited dissapointed me to find remnants of others carelessness and disrespect for nature. Broken beer bottles, cans and trash around an accompanying fire pit was all i found. It used to make me so angry that people could be so lazy and apathetic to the beauty of nature.
To see such a spectacular place unmolested by careless people is so refreshing.
Beautiful cinematography btw.
Thank you for sharing. Youve got quite a talent.
Give it time. Humans always find a way to ruin this planet.

The way a log burns in a fire, then falls into separate square/rectangular pieces is what this reminds me of, just on a massive scale. Awesome find !
Best and most reasonable explanation!!
This clip is amazing!! Ty very much for sharing it! Nature is the number one of the creators!!!
So if these split by fire, imagine the intensity of the fire to split them like that 😲
@@carolinewhite6010It was not split by fire, rock is not the same as wood. I think the comment aims to show that patterns like these can have a natural cause.
@@carolinewhite6010 they are split by ice. Every winter water will freeze between the rock, water expand when freezing so it slowly wedges the rock apart. There's a video where water is contained in a steel tube and let to freeze, the steel tube exploded with great force.
Great video. When you squeezed between these massive blocks you made me feel claustrophobic. Felt like it was me in there for a minute haha 😂
I found this from “universe inside you” did a video about what you found here. Fascinating. The view is so beautiful and humbling too. Thank you so much for sharing with us. Edited: I have to add, if you were my son you would be giving me a heart attack watching at 11:31. I had to stop at 11:52, my PTSD anxiety couldn’t watch anymore. I will pray for your safety.

I think these cubes weigh a LOT more than you are estimating. A cubic foot of sandstone weighs about 150 pounds. Regardless of their mass.....this is another stunning video. You are putting out some very unique and amazing content.
😂 the blocks are over a million lbs. how could you think that block weighed the same as a tank.
You are correct, I calculated that solid sandstone to weigh approximately 145.02 pounds per cubic foot. Awesome video , even if the numbers where off , very impressive .
@@joshg4009because he confuzzled cubic feet with square feet... a measure of 3-dimensional volume vs. A measurement of 2-dimensional area. Simple mistake.
Thanks for the correction haha. Wish I could sneak that into the video somehow
@@BigPubez69 regardless it should click a solid block of mass can’t possibly weigh the same as a empty metal can at witch point you redo your math.
From the UK, I just want to say how incredibly envious I am of this excursion and how brilliantly shot and narrated it is. Having been through Monument Valley twice and always wanted to get on top of the cliffs there, this is a real thrill to see this. Look forward to watching more of your adventures.
Thanks a ton. Even though it looks over monument valley it is still quite far away. Lots more headed your way 🤙
@@the_pov_channel Keep up the great work!
Stupendo!
Fascinating video! So breath taking! If someone had described what your video shows - there's no way I could have believed it!
At times the cubes look like perfectly baked loaves of bread with soft rounded tops and other times the imagination is going everywhere at once! Sooo much evidence of a MASSIVE VIOLET TORENT OF A FLOOD!
@@the_pov_channel
I'm not envious. Looks like you discovered things they don't want discovered. But, are these guys still in control? Have you watched David wilcock ?
Omg this is an incredible find. This apparent quarry reminds me of the stuff Brian Foerster has identified on his channel, which covers huge ancient megalithic rock ruins. The rocks were quarried, transported and placed using technology way beyond what should have existed at the time. Even more than we have now because these would have to be literally levitated to get where they are at.
This reminds me of the gigantic foundation stone blocks in Baalbek. If you ever seen the patterns laid of brick roads/walls, that’s what this looks like just at an enormous level.
This is not natural
Just more signs of advanced ancient civilisations thay we are yet to understand I guess 🤷♂️
You are exactly correct! That is fossilized coral. This entire region was once an inland sea, and when Earth changes happened long ago, the land rose, the water fled to the current oceans, and what was once at the bottom of the sea is now high above the current sea level.
Yeah the mountains arose and the water ran off...at the end of the Flood
@@thebuff7271 So where's all the water now? If the planet was engulfed in enough water to float a ginormous boat and the weight of the occupants and their life support inside, then where did all the water go?
@@annakeyethe water rise (great flood) was caused by the giant meteor that struck Greenland. They found the crater already to prove it. It also wiped out the ancient Egyptians but eventually the water washout around the globe returned to normal
@@annakeye
It went into the subterranean aquifers
First of all the story of the "ark" is a metaphor. we should assume that it was some kind of vessel.
Second, the water on earth does not increase or decrease. It only changes form.@@annakeye

Excellent slow, quiet look at this unique geology. Thanks. I swam in rockpools where there was a square gap, 4 separate huge rocks on sides. It is likewise looking manmade but at impossible location and huge size. And mostly underwater. Sandstone also, on Queensland south east coast. I always wondered if there were others too, so thanks for showing these.
You did some great video work, I assume using a drone with a decent video cam. Thank you for investigating and sharing this post.
BTW, your productions are of the finest quality. The purity of the hauntingly reflective, silent moments evoke profound wonder that would be spoilt by backing music. Thank you.
Beachrock is cool stuff. Even a gazillion years after it was created. Imagine standing on an old coast all these years later, now so far above sea level. Wonderful. Thank you.
Search the area near Train Rock, Utah and find many of the same fracture patterns and also at 37º0'6.97"N 109º 6'25.16"W as well. One can find hundreds of instances of natural fracturing by observing the vegetation growing atop many of the mesas. The plants have found the natural fissures and take root there giving the appearance of tree lines or fence lines.
It looks like you’ve actually found coral fossils, similar to the affects which created the nearby petrified forest. All of that land was once under water. Great work, by the way!

Zero chance its natural as the compositions of minerals change throughout the blocks. Most likely been cut with diamond tipped chains. They still use those in Egypt today. You can see the whole top level is laid with them.
@@gmaulpker4765 can you explain why the compositions of minerals changing would be proof its not natural
also, diamond tipped chains doesnt by itself explain the logistics of cutting so much rock in such a remote place and for no apparent reason and god knows how long ago
@@hristoborisov3713, It’s relevant because sedimentary layers have different density and grain patterns. If the stone had broken free from the cliff naturally due to temperature changes, or erosion you would expect the rock to break unevenly. These stones appear to have been quarried.
@sobaze THIS☝🏻💯...But people will still swallow some ridiculous narrative of this all being "Natural"
Oh, and by the way, love the video. Enjoy exploring the SW with you and your ilk.
It's amazing !!! Well done. Thanks for showing the world that there is so much still to be discovered !!! It's similar to the megaliths of Baalveck

@@davidbintliff2852yeah, cant believe he didnt get the idea when he literally picked up an ancient coral reef
That wasn’t coral reef, you could see the different stages of the stone changing
@@MrCazjdalso the actual way the stones have been split, separated and made; seems to be up for debate, interesting geology or architecture is in the works. Personally, I sway towards ancient humans, but will not throw the consensus to the side it very most likely is a coral reef; yet somethings off about this location, no doubt.
Okay, I'm just going to admit it, I'm really, really impressed with the drone footage that you shot. Truly top quality. Very professional.👏

Hi! Student geologist here. This is the result of a geologic process known as orthogonal jointing, and it's actually more common than you'd think. These blocks are likely quartz sandstone, which is known to break into cube shapes under force. It's very bizarre looking, but it's totally natural.
Si lo dicen los libros de la escuela entonces debe ser verdad, no es así?
its way to square, give me some links of structures that look like this and are know to be a result of geology pls.I just want to know if this is real or not
@@3alabo the Tessellated Pavement in Tasmania, and the Watkins Glen and Ausable Chasm in New York. There are more examples of orthogonal jointing out there but these are probably some of the best-looking ones outside of Monument Valley (where this video is shot)
The cubic shapes of the jointed rocks out here in Monument valley are particularly well-preserved because of the lack of rainfall. There's not much erosion to wear down at the edges, so they look especially clean.
Geologists never explore any other answer but oh it formed by some bs we made up. I always asked questions my geology teacher couldnt answer. Geologists are almost as bad as paleontologists, they make up theories and excuses but never actually scientifically prove anything using the actual scientific method.
They're so straight with perfect angles. Definitely looks like a quarry, like someone cut the cliff side with technology that's foreign to us.
Did you go there and check the Angles? No! They are NOT perfect 90* Angles!
@@oldmanfromscenetwentyfour8164nah but it's a really special natural formation either way , nature hardly ever does flat , straight or corners so it's rare to see perfect or not and these are pretty darn close
@@oldmanfromscenetwentyfour8164sir, if you’re going to say they’re not perfect 90 degree angles because he didn’t go check, you can’t sit there and type that they ain’t because you, yourself, infact, did not go check.
Old man so triggered! Does the formation remind you of the box you're trapped in?
? foreign technology? Humans have been quarrying rock for thousands of years 😂
Honestly ~ this is the most incredible video I've ever seen. I'm 67 and spent many years hiking and traveling, and have never seen anything like this!! I can't thank you enough for your fantastic videos. The area looks as if it has been mined. I was a Miner, from an AZ mining town. At app'x the 20:25 mark, there's a pyramid. Also- when you're at the cedar tree, looking at the odd 'coral' rock, I noticed perfect bricks. I am absolutely blown away. Sharing your video to my friends!!! 🏆

Sandstone is usually between 145 to 160 pounds per cubic foot. Usually sandstone doesn't naturally cleave like that. This is more indicative of a Halite. This level of accuracy makes me wonder about past civilizations and ancient quarrying techniques.

I wonder what the H2O levels would have been?
They would fracture just like that, but only according to the crystalline structure of the rocks that formed in that area. Maybe plus a huge electrical storm
Being sandstone, it is the same kind of stone you get in Egypt, in the desert, so these look to me exactly like the kind of thing the pyramids were made out of. I've been watching a lot of stuff about ancient aliens and giants and ancient civilisations and this to me, looks like yet more evidence of an ancient pre--flood / glacial civilisation involving giants and lost technology we don't know about today. That just looks like a quarry no doubt about it. Even the petroglyphs look similar to those found in Sinai. Look up ancient pre--flood megaliths, you'll find loads of similar advanced technology stonework all over the planet.
This is orthogonal jointing in the uppermost massive sandstone member of the Permian (~270 Ma) Cedar Mesa Sandstone (of the Cutler Group). It formed due to a combination of 1. changes in the stress field as the Laramide-era (75-50 Ma) compression in the Colorado Plateau gave way to tectonic relaxation and extension, 2. development of the joint pattern due to thermal cycling and freeze/thaw physical weathering as the overburden above the Cedar Mesa sandstone was denuded and the unit exposed, concomitant with a Neogene uplift of the Colorado plateau, and 3. endogenous, auxetic effects on quartz grains in massive sandstone due to burial and subsequent uplift. There are numerous papers on this subject: Wagon & Curran. (2021). “Sandstone Geometry on the Colorado Plateau”. The Mathematical Intelligencer., Bai et al. (2002). “Orthogonal cross joints: do they imply a regional stress rotation?”. Journal of Structural Geology., Rives et al. (1994). “Analogue simulation of natural orthogonal joint set formation in brittle varnish”. Journal of Structural Geology., Li & Ji. (2020). “A new interpretation for formation of orthogonal joints in quartz sandstone”. Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering., to name but a few.
Incredible. Thank you for sharing this knowledge
No it’s an artificial formation
People have no idea how much energy there is between freeze and thaw. Thanks for throwing it out there. It can move mountains!
Palisade Mesophyll
I wonder, in granite columns, the octagonal shape is a reflection of the crystalline structure of the material, but sandstone is not a single chrystal but lots and lots of small chtystals baked together and thus is mostly amorphous on large scales, or am I wong?
I have often seen sandstone in layers that easily separate but never somethin like this
You've inspired me to go on a spontaneous trip to a cool place near me. Great video!

Amazing find! I will suggest you carry around with you a GPS Beacon like a Garmin InReach mini just in case you don't already have one. If you got stuck you could use it to save your life.
Reminded me of David Paulides, "Missing 411" documentary's, where people go missing never to be seen again. What he's doing there could explain why some people go missing in parks all across America, I bet if he explored more around there he might've found a missing person. Cause if I could explore like he does, I'd do just like what he's doing but the difference is I'd get stuck and become a blerp in one of Paulides documentary's.😅

@@Calamity_Leo if I remember correctly a few people went missing carrying one of them, but later found miles away in a spot that had already been searched sometimes multiple times. It's been awhile since I've watched one of his documentaries so I may be wrong.

Same thoughts! What if something happens to you or your dog? Remember the adventurer from years ago who became stuck between 2 huge rocks and ultimately severed his arm to get loose and get help. He did survive but with an amputated arm! It's called being smart!

It is absolutely amazing that I have seen my share of the world and have only seen stuff like this but in something that used to be something to say this is natural is like saying you are crazy I don't know you so I can't make that assumption. Maybe this is natural but I highly doubt this but that would be saying that whoever made this was way more advanced than we will be in the next 200 years we don't know our past because everything that we should know was taken from us when our captures won is how I will say this do you feel free or do you feel like your past was taken from you like I do.

The wide shots with the thunder off in the distance are so peaceful. You could make an hour-long video just with cuts like that and I'd play it in the background just for the feeling it invokes.
Also, can I ask what kind of shoes you are wearing? They seem to be very grippy. I'm guessing something with a minimal sole, like Merrells?
Vivo Barefoot shoes. My absolute favorite shoes. Very good for slippery surfaces and increasing foot strength

The thunder sound is the wind into the microphone... perfectly clear skies.
@@tamaradeeks2707I think that sound is wind.
The strangest part I noticed at 6.40 into the video, the aerial view show's the background. The whole are has outlines of these pre-cut lines. Have you ever tried to ask a geologist or someone what could have caused these naturally ? I'm thinking, in Ireland there is the Giants Causeway, but they are tiny compared to these but there are over 40,000 interlocking square columns over there. This is amazing though, i'd love to have come on this adventure with you !!
Bro, you are the man. Your videos are so interesting. All of this kind of stuff really fascinates me too. I love investigating earth on Google Earth too. Totally get it.
I went out to this formation in the mid 1970's while a student at UNM. This area has been studied by geologists and geo students more than a few times. Am sure there is a PhD thesis or two which examines the sandstone, the under laying formation and what it went through over time with pressures. There are lots of examples across the planet of fracturing along , more or less, angular lines then movement occurred as underlying formations shifted. You make a cool video and get people thinking about the real world that surrounds us.
A note: stone masons have split sandstone along angular lines for millennia. Some sandstone's split that way be it small or massive.
It is an incredible place and alot to learn from it. Thanks I am glad to hear that. The splits that travel through sandstone remind me so much of a brittle wood like cedar. Would the action that splits the sandstone along the faults occur when it is very deep underground and subjected to high pressure?
The splits occur long after sandstone was initially laid down during a desert environment (dont recall which epo period). A very complex scenario to long too explain here. @@the_pov_channel
@@santafecanon Cool, thanks for the info I will look up this process
What always captures my imagination are the forces that cause these huge blocks to separate and fall from the formation. Water and freezing temps. Water seeps into the initial hairline crack, freezes causing expansion of water into ice and pushes on the block, moving it away ever so slightly. Ice melts, more water enters crack, freezes, pushes block. It's referred to as freeze-thaw erosion. Eventually gravity is the greater force that tumbles the block.
This is one of the most incredible finds I've ever seen! And your cinematography skills are super!
I hope your friends have recovered.
Haha they are getting there. Thanks a ton
I too am so appreciative of the cinematography skills. I especially love that he does so many close ups, and gives us glimpses deep under crags and crevices. It’s the stuff I’m always gagging to see. Thank You so so much.
@@the_pov_channel It may not be so much they're mad at you for leading them down the cliff, but that they made the choice to follow you.
Really enjoyed that exploration... Would be scared to do what you did, but travelling on your shoulder through the camera is a real eye opener... Definitely more to it than natural geography... Had to be either man made or extra terrestrial in origin..
THAK YOU for sharing this marvelous scene and new aspects of the nature formations that no one would believe were possible.
This reminds me of the “giants causeway” and other places where geometric shapes occur naturally in stone. But this is really strange. Great work!!
That's the first thing I thought of too.

I saw your Antediluvian Discovery on "0:49 / 12:02
Pre-Flood Mega Quarry Discovered in Utah " I hope you name it first.
Ing video.. the place looks unreal.. perfect lines.. looks like somebody cut the blocks perfectly.. and the spongy rocks look like they were reacted by acid.. great video.!
Your videos, your expressions, your dialog helps one understand what the first explorers, the mountain men must have felt when they first ventured into the whole western US after the Louisianna Purchase. For me, I have nothing but admiration for those explorers.
They were far from the first more like the last. Indigenous tribes lived here thousands of years before the Louisiana purchase
I am well aware that indigenous tribes explored the whole of North America many thousands of years before Europeans arrived. My comment was intended to say "the first European explorers, the mountain men, who came after the Lousanna purchase". I assumed the words, ""mountain men" would be enough, but I errored. Please note the phrase, "the mountain men". I should have placed a comma after the word "men" to be clear. Some should read the entire script before jumping to conclusions and trying to find errors. @@YasumuSento
Beautiful! I have to agree with others, thank you for not adding music and extensive editing, just gorgeous footage all on its own.
Great Comment!! Totally agree. So many videographers mess up a great shoot with incongruous very annoying music which totally destroys the ability to imagine!!
Thank you so much for taking us all to see the sights,I would not be able to see this without you.😊
Obviously, you are not afraid of heights. What beautiful landscape and thank you for the drone shots of this beautiful location!
Those "coral" stones are likely just the same sandstone that's all around, but with a mineralized layer of what I believe is calcite that has created a kind of shell over the sandstone. I had it explained by a geologist once ages ago, so I may be wrong saying calcite... But if you were to look at the cliff right where you saw those, I would wager you could find more of that stuff as well as evidence of water. You find those "shells" often on cliff faces where you can tell there used to be a drainage of sorts. I believe the water deposits minerals on the sandstone as it moves over it, and over time this hard layer builds up, often with little annoying bumps for some reason. (I'm a rock climber, and that stuff hurts when its on your hold!) I think its a similar idea to how stalactites / stalagmites form in caves. In some spots, you can see the shell layer has broken away from the sandstone, and you can even grab little flakes of it if it's loose enough. So I would guess that those rocks you found on the ground either fell off of the cliff, or were dripped on, or perhaps were sitting in a puddle of mineral rich water for ages.
All that being said, in certain high areas in the desert like that you can indeed find ancient sea life! I see it most often in limestone. There are little shells and mini "shark jaws" stuck in the rock sometimes 7-8k+ feet above see level! Nature is so cool.
But what about my intergalactic people making quarries theory?
Yes, the fossilized sea shell life on the stones. I visited the Coba pyramids in the Yucatan and saw small fossilized shell on the stones there as well.
Amazing!! There is truly no shape sandstone cant take. Thanks for this great explanation. I was getting alot of conflicting answers but this seems in line with my limited understanding of geology.
I think it still holds up! @@cinderbones
Oxidation was my first thought
The mass of little round rocks that look like coral could be oolites. This area was a sea at one time, oolites form from a couple of different natural processes, Google oolitic or oolite sandstone/limestone. I'm envious, really cool exploration and video, consider sharing your discovery of the petroglyph's with nearby tribal leaders or rangers. Thank you!
It's actually rocks formed when lightning(electricity) hits sandstone. Called *'drigg fulgurite'*
I believe you're correct after viewing on a larger screen, it's a better example than online specimens and I hope he brought it back? @@03stmlax
Yes they should be reported to local tribes and local colleges for them to record or something so it's not lost!!
@@03stmlaxso does it essentially melt pieces of the rock to glass causing the bubbling effect ?
Just watched it again with my hubby, great video...thank you so much!!😊
Crazy, the amount of work put into these and how well they fit together. Also noticing how incredibly flat they are on top.
Hey man great video . I work at a travertine and marble quarry, the cuts on the walls and the way de blocks where tossed down are identical as the procedure we do to extract our marble blocks , its completely surreal nature did something like this , specially with those crazy angles an geometry. Strange....
Bar none, one of the best, most watchable, most exciting and most fascinating "travel" videos I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing your adventure with us.
Bro...your dog near the edge of these cliffs gives me anxiety. 😅
I try to mitigate as much risk with him as possible, but he's been like this since he was a puppy. He is now 8 years old
The dog is smarter... it's you that gives me anxiety. Why try and get stuck...
@@TexasGrlmy late buddy always spooked me with edges and I honestly think he noticed it made me nervous/upset so he'd always keep a little more distance and look at me approvingly
Was going to say the same thing 🤐
It’s safe…..as long as no one throws a stick 😂😂😂
Great job. my favorite place to drive by myself after I’ve had stressful several weeks has always been monument Valley. I park in a mobile home park area alone in my car. I’m wasted the sunrise and there’s nothing like it on earth. There’s no hotels in the area so there’s no other way to actually experience it as you probably know, thank you for giving us a perspective we’ve never seen. And I wonder if there was coral reef at this area you spotted it what else can be shaped with coral reef like bubbles glad you made it home safe obviously.
Archaix Channel has a lot of research about the cause of this (research from very old books)... also Roger at mudfossil might have a few things to say about the rocks of funny textures.... great video..thanks 👍
6:38 !!!
You can see everything is already pre-cut !
By looking at the Vegetation growth. Shows where water formations and grooves drain the water. So the stones are already pre cut or fabricated. They just have to be uncovered or picked up. Take a look at your drone footage, the lines going across like a grid
I noticed that too, if you look at his shots from above you can see marks where they were going to cut off the next blocks. They are all consistently the same size and shape as the ones that have already broken off. And nature did that??? I’m saying no. And people saying in comments ice or whatever does make cube shapes, that’s true but this is not ice. Can you recreate this exact effect with the same materials? Science is consistent so show us this somewhere else with the same rock, weather etc?
i’m not claiming these were constructed or not but ice is to water as lava is to rock; the basic process is the same they just happen at differently temps
If there were signs of tools or tooling patterns the would be definitive.
it's the whole, if aliens were real, they'd be untraceable unless they wanted to be discovered... did you know some ways of machine cutting doesn't leave trace of tool marks??? @@johnnovotny5074
Found something for you. Not for this exact site, but for similar rock patterns. It is an open access article, maybe that is interesting for you, the title is:
A new interpretation for formation of orthogonal joints in quartz sandstone
by Le Li, Shaocheng Ji
This rock formation is the Cedar Mesa Sandstone Member of the Permian Cutler formation. The Cedar Mesa Sandstone Member consists of two totally unlike facies- a sandstone facies present only in the area near Cedar Mesa and a gypsiferous facies. As typically exposed on Cedar Mesa, the sandstone facies consists of a sequence that is dominantly sandstone having minor interbedded siltstone. The sandstone is grayish orange, very pale orange, and yellowish gray and shows at places pale-reddish-brown and very light greenish-gray mottling. It consists of rounded to subangular very fine to medium quartz grains and minor accessory minerals and is generally well cemented by calcium carbonate. The sandstone occurs in thick prominent ledges as much as 125 feet thick that consist of individual beds from 5 to 35 feet thick. Many sandstone beds are cross laminated, and the inclination of the laminae is dominantly eastward (Read and Wanek, 1961, p. 7).
Sears ( 1956) rnapped and described a "lower soft" part of the sandstone facies, which is locally present and contrasts markedly with the typical sandstone facies of the Cedar Mesa Sandstone noted above. This lower softer zone forms a steep slope and is overlain by remnants of cliff-forming grayish -orange cross bedded sandstone in all respects similar to typical Cedar Mesa exposed at the type locality near Cedar Point.
From s structural standpoint, the area in this video falls along the fold axis of the Cedar Mesa Anticline which is referred to in the literature as "Essentially the summit of the Monument Upwarp ". The monument upwarp is considered to be a large structural element of the Colorado Plateau, and is characterized as a broad northward trending uplift about 35 miles wide and 100 miles long extending from near the junetion of the Green and Colorado Rivers to near Kayenta, Ariz. The upwarp is asymmetrical and has a gently dipping west limb and a steeply dipping east limb.
I think that the regional structural deformation and local surface conditions, consisting of relatively brittle sandstone over the "lower softer, gypsiferous" member of the Cedar Mesa Standstone, produced thenearly perfect symmetrical joint sets shown in this video.

Massive respect for anyone that does actual research on a subject and then adds references so others are able to reach their own newly educated conclusions.
Sweet info and links to sources, cheers much 👏
pin this lmao
Of course you would, your professional reputation prevents you from contemplating anything other than a natural cause. Show me another example of this anywhere in the word.
My fear of heights is so bad that I was getting dizzy just watching this but it was so incredibly interesting I powered through. I am also fascinated by the way these blocks are put together. Awesome to see someone right up next to them
Nice video. Interesting, even though the formation itself can of course be considered as a geologically explained phenomenon going right down to the cubical mineral structure of sandstone and its previous tectonic activity. Surely these formations were just as fascinating for earlier civilisations that also visited or lived nearby.
@6:35 you can see that the pattern of fracture has already formed...!
Good video, interesting, and beautiful view...!
This was clearly the most interesting thing I’ve seen today. Had no idea such a place existed - absolutely spectacular. I live in Rockwall, Texas named for an odd and once supposedly ancient wall unearthed in the 1850s and later supposedly confirmed to be a completely natural geologic phenomenon. Perhaps what you discovered is similar but on a colossally grander scale. I love the shot where doggo is watching the drone.
The rock layers I understand, but the blocks are a wonder. Straight line cracks just don't seem normal or natural.
many cases of wind erosion causing perfectly straight lines even making some structures appear exactly like this and there are plenty of videos and scientist to prove that
I think this was once a quarry. That 1 cube with the extended lip on top really tells it all.
Great editing. The back and fourth drone fotage gave a great perspective. You standing that close to the cliff makes me uncomfortable.
Yes, I am afraid of heights, I got butterflies in my stomach every time you point your camera down the cliff or your dog walks to the edge. Awesome site🎉 thanks for sharing🎉
Me too. I had to look away. He was giving me the Willie's. Especially because, he said his friends had fled and left him alone.
Haha! Yes, me too!
I've just discovered your channel, and I love the beautiful things you share, thank you!
This is a great find, and a clue as to why ancient people used specific types of stone in their megaliths. If you're curious, look into the dimensions of polygonal megalithic masonry; it is earthquake-proof material as ancient people used it, arresting seismic tremors.
What you are showcasing here are 'greater harmonics'. All crystallization has stable substructures you can see as 'harmonics'. We appreciate these as types of minerals: feldspar, carbonates, quartz, etc. you are looking at the longer-time, larger-space form of sandstone's matrix, which is either chalcedony or opaline depending on the density.
(I'm not an expert, but I have studied harmonics most of my life...they appear in galaxies, planetary atmospheres, DNA, atoms, etc. DNA is a double-helix; this is a mated pair of Golden Ratios. They would spiral forever outwards if not mated together...each hemisphere of your brain represents one helix. All form is harmonic)
OMG! Starting at 1:45, your silence and this recording of rumbling thunder in the vastness of nature had me trembling. Simply stunning. Perhaps the most wondrous recording of nature I've ever seen. Thank you!
How is there some shots that are completely clear and you hear thunder in the background? Seems to be that some of the wind sound and thunder sound was added
Looking around on google earth/maps. These straight lines are all over the area, but limited to just this peninsula. 1918: those are fossilized corals which are often found in the area.
That’s insane.
Yeah... it makes me think this was pre flood 🤔
@@teresadvorak6145 the whole area, during the Cretaceous period, was an inland sea. As the Rocky Mtns were forming, the sea was pushed south by the rising landmass into what is now the Gulf of Mexico.
@mhicaoidh1 Yep! I love searching for crinoid stems in the foothills of Appalachia. Hundreds of millions of years old!
@@the_pov_channelWell I would say insane is putting it mildly at best. When you learn/discover the multitude of limestone cliff faces, not all that dissimilar to this sandstone cliff, all formed in marine environments of reef building, it becomes infinitesimally unimaginable how long it took to build and how much sea life it took to do it. Check out the Capitan Reef of the Guadalupe Mountains in Southern New Mexico. Of course there are hundreds more all over the world.
I believe those cubes are located there because the coastline was there at some point and those blocks were used to disrupt the tides as seen in Mexico coastlines like in Cancun. It is still unfathomable in current times to see how these megalithic structures were orchestrated during prehistoric times. Amazing
I just love Muley Point. Went thereabout twenty years ago. Stunning view. I will never forget it. Make sure you stick to the speed limit on he dirt track down to Mexican Hat or you will end up slipping and sliding.
I used to work as a stone mason and I've been into few queries.
This definitely looks like a query to me.
I think autocorrect was messing with your comment
This reminds me of the Tura quarry in Egypt I've been to where the limestone came from which built the Great Pyramid.
I agree that this may not be natural, We really know so little about the history of the earth.
Quarry. A query is a question.
@@SandyCheeks63564 it’s a query about a quarry.
Absolutely AMAZING! Being claustrophobic AND acrophobic your investigation (climbing, navigating, and standing atop) would scare the hell out of me makes me grateful YOU have the abilities! This is one of the BEST things I've seen on CZcams....EVER!
It's freaking ME out too lol
I agree. This is one of the best things I've ever seen on CZcams and I watch a lot of CZcams 😅
Sorry for your phobias. I have had stiff-person-syndrome for the past 12 years, and it comes with startle syndrome, and it has done a number on my sanity. My PTSD from commercial fishing for 23 years has had a field day with me, and the ruptured Cochlea has my vertigo going to the Olympics. So, I feel for you.
So you're afraid of being alive?
That bubble rock is an asteroid that struck the mountain and created all that chaos.. Now that's the result and pieces of the meteor.. Excellent find..! 💥👍🏼😄
This video made me remember how much curiosity and wonder I felt when I was a kid going on hikes, and how much I wanted to be archeologist. We all need to find time like you do, to go out and explore more.
OMG .. me too ….❤
Thanks for sharing this on here. This is fascinating stuff. I wonder if ancient advanced people were going to make a pyramid or something. 😃
In order to check if it's a cube you need to measure the diagonals from corner to corner. If the diagonal measurements are the same, the corners are 90 degrees, provided the opposite sides measure the same.
When thinking about the geological processes, the time scales involved. Starts to blow my mind. Those boulders that look like they’re on the edge. Could be sitting there for the next hundred thousand-million years. Our life span is barely a blip.
I agree, but the fact that they are so high up goes to show how quickly the landscape from the plateau is raising. The sheer energy potential that forces water and salt down the cracks, yet dry so they remain for soo long. Insanity. Mesa mountains never cease to amaze.
Though I don't deny the obvious fact that there are geologic processes at work here, it would be a misnomer to state that these rock formations are natural or geologically formed. Clearly, these mirror the ancient megaliths found the world over from Egypt, South and Central America, Central Asia, China, Greece,... Even Vietnam. This is one of the most incredible sites I've ever seen, to be honest. You had not only evidence of ancient stonework of cutting out giant symmetrically perfect cubes from the hillside, but also a dolmen head, at the same site. And you also had ancient hieroglyphs. This site is absolutely fantastic. These are not ancient American Indians, these are pre younger dryas impact event megalithic structures... Unknown in both date and origin. But that impact event was 12,800 years ago. And it ended the ice age, in a virtual blink of the eye. These particular megaliths, with the dolmen head, could literally be hundreds of thousands of years old.
Check out chimney Rock in North Carolina. Similar views and almost all cases.
Exactly. So while I understand there are a multitude of geological processes that could create these formations, I dont think its completely insane to believe that wayyy before modern recorded history this was some type of quarry. Regardless its still cool to think about at least.
It’s not impossible for nature to form cubes. In fact, it happens all the time with crystals. I have a near perfect cube calcite crystal in my room right now.
Yes, if you got two forces in synchronicity you will get 90° angels. It's even possible to form cubes with bubbles.
Bismuth is a a good example
for a minute, my strong imaginative mind drifted to several theories of what this could this be but your comment immediately dragged my floaty ass back on the ground and im clear headed with what this is lmfao
I don't remember which mineral is was, but I saw one at a gem show that looked like a 4d hypercube. A purple cube perfectly centered inside a quartzlike cube.
Yes, that’s very true. If you look up “rectangular drainage pattern” you can see some rivers taking paths at near 90 degree angles, due to fracture lines that run somewhat deep into the earth’s crust.
I would be in the car with your friends out of there. I watching, sat down, suffering from vertigo. Insane heights both scare and attract me ever since, as a young kid, I sat on the edge of a 200 ft cliff until my parents found me and went A-S, after they got me away.
Fantastic video, excellent quality.
Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland has some fascinating rock formations, too, but not nearly as massive!
The formation at the top of the mesa is the Cedar Mesa sandstone member of the Cutler formation. The vertical "cuts" are naturally-occurring fractures (aka joints) that are formed during gentle warping of the Earth's surface. One such fold (the Halgaito anticline) is southwest of the mesa. It is not unusual joints to occur in orthogonal patterns in a given stress field (conjugate joints). See "Photogeologic map of the Bluff-12 quadrangle, San Juan County, Utah" by the USGS. The rocks @19:00 look like calcite probably formed by spring flow at some point in the past.
How is the sandstone created? its almost like loafs of bread getting baked up and then separating.
Thanks for putting them in perspective. It would be good to see and compare the different areas.
Naturally occurring 90 degree angles? Bro you serious
Photogenic map of the Bluff-12 quadrangle , San Juan County Utah, by the USGS..sounds engrossing. I'll get right on it...
@extx Thanks for the information. I wasn’t nearly this knowledgeable about the formation but recognized some of the attributes. I love geology and am glad you had more info on it!
