Aaand on air! I don’t know if this happens to anyone, but whenever I watch a documentary, I like how I lose myself in it.
For me, it depends. If it is quite mechanical, I’ll be sleeping like 10 min after I start watching.
Well, honestly bud, It’s difficult to remember a time when you watched something properly till the end.
t's not my fault to be selective. I just can’t keep watching EVERYTHING like you. I have a taste, you know.
Well, now I question what kind of a taste would make you fall asleep even in thrillers?!
It’s just… meh.. I can’t really find an excuse. You’re right. What hooks you in most of the documentaries anyway?
It is like you’re watching a movie but at the same time you know that it is not a plot, quite the opposite, it is something that truly exists or happened.. or might have happened.
Ahh, that’s exactly what a realistic person like you would say.. So guys, I’m so happy to tell you we're trying a different concept today. Take it as an audio documentary. We’re diving into some places with question marks on earth. We’ll be talking about them briefly..
Normally, before each episode, we split the topics but this time we’ll be giving you mini trailers for each place we’ll mention.
We’ve got a lot to do! Let’s start.
Our first place is from Minnesota, there is this “The Devil’s Kettle Waterfall” which seems to be like any other one in the world.
I wonder who named this place. What’s so different about this waterfall?
When you take a closer look, you’ll see that it actually has 2 different bodies. One side is falling into another body of water.
Which is quite understandable. How about the other one?
This is the tricky part. The other one falls straight into a huge natural hole in the ground. Nobody knows where exactly it leads to. From putting a bunch of ping-pong balls to dye into the waterfall. They tried to understand it in different ways.
There was no trace of these at all?
Nope. Eventually it has to go somewhere, Idk maybe into the ground. Anyways, what do you have to tell?
I’ll start with “Stonehenge”
Oh come on! You’re literally taking the easy way out.
What?! Stonehenge is a mystery, too!
I thought you’d find lesser known spots. [trying to tease him up]
Who says I didn’t? So, these giant stones have been in this spot for thousands of years. They are said to be constructed in 6 stages between the years 3000 and 1520 BCE. Phew, it is so amazing how they built up these.
It’s so crazy how people lifted those heavy stones without any technology back then.
They could weigh up to 37 tons. Today we still don’t know how and what exactly they were built for.
It reminds me of Moais of Easter Island we talked about before.
Me too! Anyway, since you know about “Stonehenge” already, I can tell you about the Hessdalen Lights as an extra. Does it ring a bell?
Hmm. Give me more clues.
Dancing lights in the sky?
Like northern lights?
Kind of.. but different...
