NARRATOR: Scattered
throughout Western
Europe are more than
10,000 standing stones
known as menhirs.
They are believed to date
back to prehistoric times,
although their purpose
remains a mystery.
Sardinia is home to
hundreds of these menhirs.
And ancient astronaut
theorist Giorgio Tsoukalos
believes they may provide
a key to understanding
the island's history.
To this end, he and Oak Island
treasure hunter Marty Lagina
have arranged to meet with
archaeological guide Ivana Malu
at the menhir museum in Laconi.
IVANA MALU: Look at the very
strange circle with the spear.
What do you think, Marty?
What is that?
I'm not sure what that is.
And I'm not sure
what this is either.
Now you tell me, please,
what should I be seeing?
It's a guy going down.
[music playing]
To go into another dimension.
Do not ask me where,
or which other world.
But he's going on a trip, on
a journey, going from point A
to point B.
Whatever it really symbolizes,
it was very important.
This took an enormous
amount of work.
I mean, it's very heavy.
It's done in relief, which is
the hard way to do a carving.
GIORGIO TSOUKALOS:
I'm arguing that what
we are looking at here is
someone visiting from the sky.
And in the Bible, they were
referred to as the watchers.
NARRATOR: The watchers?
The so-called fallen
angels, as referred to
in the Bible's Old Testament?
According to the Book
of Daniel, as well as
in the apocryphal
Books of Enoch,
God sent a group
of angels referred
to as the watchers down to
Earth to watch over mankind.
But the Watchers went
against God's will
and impregnated human
women, producing
a race of giant mutants
known as Nephilim.
RABBI ARIEL BAR
TZADOK: They were
called the mighty ones of old.
They were physical giants.
And they brought havoc and
destruction upon the Earth.
And this is what led to God's
decision to bring the flood.
Even though the Bible teaches
us that Noah and his family
were the only humans
to survive the flood,
ancient legends teaches that
there were others who did
survive in many other places.
JASON MARTELL: When we talk
about the term Nephilim,
it is associated with
genetic hybrid entities.
What this translates
to me is that they
were part extraterrestrial.
Part of that story
involves the Great Flood,
so it's also possible
that they decided
to set up new camps beyond
the ones that were destroyed.
DAVID CHILDRESS: So we have
to wonder if Sardinia perhaps
was a refuge for the Nephilim.
NARRATOR: Is it possible that
the figures found on Sardinia's
menhirs represent not
angels sent from heaven,
but extraterrestrial
visitors, beings that
came in spaceships
from another world,
and then fathered
a race of giants?
