This association with Germanic peoples with Atlantis is way older than you think: In 1679, a Swedish scientist called Olaus Rudbeck theorized that the Swedes were indeed the descendants of the Atlanteans, because one ancient viking burial site was similar to the lost city described by Plato. You can see that as historian, Rudbeck was a good biologist.
The obssesion with Atlantis its weird to me It was just another fake civilization that Plato invented to make a philosophical point. Like cool but why anyone took it as real for so many years?
@@GrantGraff Eh? I don't pretend to have watched everything they ever offered. But nah, in the early days they showed documentaries on popular history topics, shunned conspiracy theories, spoke of supernatural/spiritual concepts only in its academic context, hyped up American triumphs, discussed sexism/racism as thing of the distant past. WWII, the American Revolution, The Civil War, and occasionally something else (always packaged for the most general audience)

For sure, there's a permanent exhibit on the Holocaust at the Imperial War Museum, London. I was mostly coping with it but then there's a pile of shoes in the final room. It was a hot September day, but it took me a long time to feel warm again after seeing that.

the intro is right up there with how South Park interpreted Scientology's genesis story: NEVER eat a mushroom that might make you see visions you are not prepared to comprehend.
It's the best reaction to give when faced with that level of self-aggrandizing nonsense, too! If there's one thing fascists and authoritarians hate, it's being laughed at. Good show, EC/EH crew!
Yea, its like that South Park episode about scientology, where they just laid out the whole alien souls backstory with "This is what scientologists actually believe" superimposed on the screen.
World ice theory sounds like it was heavily inspired by Norse mythology. Since the way that the Norse believed the world was created was when the fire from musphelheim and the ice from Niflheim mixed together in ginnungagap and created the sun, stars and moon as well the giant Ymir whom Midgard would be made from. Essentially the Thule society tried to make that a scientific explanation for the earths creation
World Ice theory might also be a variation of the "World water theory" by ancient Greek philosopher Thales of Miletus. Or, it could be both. The similarity between the two could be used as "evidence" that the Greeks empire was actually Aryan.
It was inspired by Norse Mythology, and the core idea of "really hot meets really cold" wasn't too far off. Their theories on humans traveling on meteorites were silly, and their bizarre hatred of Jews was horrible and misguided in the exteme, as well as utterly absent in Norse Myths (Vikings had no reason to hate Jews). Their problem was how they wanted to force modern conflicts, racism, and such into the original framework where those did not exist.

@@huskadog7748 Saudi refers to Saudi Arabia, a nation-estate. In that case Tiwanaku would be a Bolivian ruin, the nation-state where Tiwanaku is located now. Tiwanaku influenced the Incans, hence the similarity. But, as far as culture goes Tiwanaku predates the Inca by a while and also spoke a different language to them. It's simply not an Incan ruin. It was located inside the Incan empire during a time, sure, but the empire is gone.
@@huskadog7748 More akin that Hagia Sophia would not be a Turkish or Ottoman ruin, but a Greek-orthodox or Byzantine ruin despite its importance to the former and the latter.
Okay, I need to draw attention to the panel at 3:07. As an Israeli Jew, I've seen this image many times in my life, and it was always one of the most powerful emblems of the Holocaust for me. Ali - hat's off to you; to say you've done this bit of horror justice would be a massive understatement.
2:55 Thing is, the people that believed this stuff were stupid and guillable, but the people that created these myths were not. They knew exactly what they were doing.

"Legends and Lattes" and "Bookshops and Bonedust" were amazing books. My wife and I listen to the audio version, and I bought her the physical versions as well because they were so good to listen to.

I just still find it wild that 'Dolphie legitimately gave them almost free reign over the national budget. Even more crazy is that there really was an archeological dig in Tanis to find the Ark of the Covenant.
4:40 - I’ve always felt it’s a deliberate misquoting of Darwin, who said “organisms best fitted to their environment are the most successful” and not ‘survival of the fittest’ as is often quoted politically. Plenty of evolution tales end with the extinction of large & powerful predatory animals who can no longer survive an ever changing world.
Exactly. It has nothing to do with being top of the food chain. It's more of 'they are the best at reproducing more than they die.' If it were the former, as it's often conveyed, most herbavore species would just be extinct since they clearly aren't going to be top of the food chain.
wow this is definitely way more interesting of an episode than I thought it would be. It's amazing the things you're describing about spiritualism seeking and all the advancements... and that's exactly what I see the world trying to do a lot these days too.
i am rather disappointed that you look like a nice history teacher because i thought you looked like a plump friendly wizard who takes enormous pleasure in spreading knowledge and wisdom to the townsfolk
The intro and thumb nail gave me the sense that this was like some Scp and alien vibes but other than that that thumbnail was perfect and the intro looked straight out of Indiana jones
Reminds me of how they were connected to the Obskuracorps and later their demise at the hands of the Allied Occult Initiative [the precursor to the GOC that is later founded in the onslaught of the Seventh Occult War/WW2].
Good Episode with a interresting Topic, Fun Fact: Goethe wrote a poem called "der König von Thule" engl: the King of Thule which appears in his Tragedy Faust I
If you convince people to believe in absurdity, then you can get them to commit atrocities. That’s not an original thought, but it’s just as true today as it was the first time someone uttered those words.
In the table top rpg hunter: the vigil, there’s a faction called the loyalists of Thule, people who discovered they had some familial connection to the Thule society and decided that hunting monsters was the only way to atone for the crimes of their ancestors

I just still find it wild that 'Dolphie legitimately gave them almost free reign over the national budget. Even more crazy is that there really was an archeological dig in Tanis to find the Ark of the Covenant.
Dude your Conspiracy Charlie meme is on point 😂
0:00 - 0:58
Really love this new style of intro
4:40 - I’ve always felt it’s a deliberate misquoting of Darwin, who said “organisms best fitted to their environment are the most successful” and not ‘survival of the fittest’ as is often quoted politically. Plenty of evolution tales end with the extinction of large & powerful predatory animals who can no longer survive an ever changing world.
Exactly. It has nothing to do with being top of the food chain. It's more of 'they are the best at reproducing more than they die.' If it were the former, as it's often conveyed, most herbavore species would just be extinct since they clearly aren't going to be top of the food chain.
Well, now I have the lore for my next D&D campaign. Great intro.
Himmler and Rosenberg for example were very much into occultism. These men were very influential and they weren't a lunatic fringe of any kind.
They were lunatics but they weren't fringe.

@@ThomasstevenSlaterthey weren't lunatics they were geniuses
@@algiz21 They were murderous lunatics.
@@musiclover01ization according to the people who hate them yeah
wow this is definitely way more interesting of an episode than I thought it would be. It's amazing the things you're describing about spiritualism seeking and all the advancements... and that's exactly what I see the world trying to do a lot these days too.
You always make My day guys😊😊😊❤❤❤
5:17 that is one handsome devil
Honestly tho-
i am rather disappointed that you look like a nice history teacher because i thought you looked like a plump friendly wizard who takes enormous pleasure in spreading knowledge and wisdom to the townsfolk
Probably a very needed series to reach many ears. Well done EH!!
"We really believe zis Scheiße!" kinda made me feel sorry for the Doktor. Kinda.
That was the greatest intro I've ever seen in my life
The intro and thumb nail gave me the sense that this was like some Scp and alien vibes but other than that that thumbnail was perfect and the intro looked straight out of Indiana jones
Reminds me of how they were connected to the Obskuracorps and later their demise at the hands of the Allied Occult Initiative [the precursor to the GOC that is later founded in the onslaught of the Seventh Occult War/WW2].
0:01 Never in my days would I expect an extra history video to start like this.
4:55 bro I need sleep I thought this was gonna form into the Univision logo
Great, now I can’t UNSEE it! 😂
Isn't that what it was?
Good Episode with a interresting Topic, Fun Fact: Goethe wrote a poem called "der König von Thule" engl: the King of Thule which appears in his Tragedy Faust I
I appreciate you putting this out st this time. But I wish you did a vid on the rise of the dictators in the 20s and 30s.
I have been a fan of Indiana Jones and Extra History for so long. Wasn't expecting a reference in the intro!
The youtube thumbnail goes so hard for no reason
David did an amazing job with it!
@@extrahistory Facts 🔥
That title was a trip and a half.
Get em Indy, I mean Extrahistorian(s)
If you convince people to believe in absurdity, then you can get them to commit atrocities. That’s not an original thought, but it’s just as true today as it was the first time someone uttered those words.
4:33 Hey M. J. Thatch! nice to see you!!
@@DaNL-ly8zn Agreed! I love Milo!
that has got to be the best open to date so far had me in stitches
I love this show!
In the table top rpg hunter: the vigil, there’s a faction called the loyalists of Thule, people who discovered they had some familial connection to the Thule society and decided that hunting monsters was the only way to atone for the crimes of their ancestors
That was an ending that sent chills down my spine. Thanks Extra History
PEAK VIDEO! You always make My day ❤❤❤❤❤
How did you and rob decide who would be Captian America and who would be Indiana Jones
The intro was kinda ridiculous, but i enjoyed it nonetheless because i grew up with the Indiana Jones movies.
Ain't no way extra history is making a TNO reference
Someone please beg Travis Baldree to put out another book. I had Bookshops and Bonedust delivered as soon as it was available and I LOVE HIS WORKS PLEASE WRITE MORE THANKS
