Joe Rogan Experience #1928 - Jimmy Corsetti & Ben van Kerkwyk

Joe Rogan Podcast, check it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience.
Train by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day.
We're up.
What's happening?
Hi, Joe, how you doing?
Good to see you again.
Ben, nice to meet you.
It's a pleasure to meet you as well, Joe.
I've enjoyed your videos, and I've enjoyed your videos, of course.
Jimmy, I watched your whole series on Atlanta all day today.
I've been watching for hours.
I've been watching impact videos, videos about the Atlanta structure, and so
let's just get into it.
Let's do it.
So the Rishat Structure, I was on your show a little over a year ago and shared
some details about it.
To people who aren't aware, there's a location in the Western Sahara Desert of
Mauritania called the Rishat Structure.
It's also commonly referred to as the Eye of the Sahara.
It is a site that most people have never seen or heard of before, which is
truly peculiar because it's so spectacular.
It's a site that astronauts typically use to reference from space.
It is a geological feature that is said to be volcanic in nature.
And what's so spectacular about this is that it just so happens to match more
than a dozen striking similarities to what Plato had described as the lost
ancient capital city of Atlantis.
I almost feel like we're not going to do your video justice by just talking
about it because the video is so good and you go into so many details.
By the end of it, my jaw was dropped.
I was like, holy shit.
Like from what you had the last time you were on the podcast to what you put
out now, it's even more compelling, way more compelling.
I appreciate you saying that.
And I guess to anyone that wants to check it out, I have a YouTube channel
called Bright Insight.
It's right at the top of the page and it says lost ancient Roman map has Atlantis
in Sahara, Africa.
And that's kind of where it goes from there is that there is a – actually,
let me just mention real quick, like you're a very inquisitive individual.
You have many interesting people that come and chat with you.
And when I had asked you last time, you said that until you had saw my video,
you'd never seen or heard of the wrist shot structure.
Never heard of it, yeah.
Anytime I meet somebody new or if I'm at some party and be like, oh, what do
you do?
And we start chatting about YouTube.
The first thing I do now is I show them a picture of the wrist shot.
And I've never, not once, ever come across one single person that has seen or
heard of it before.
Other than people who are familiar with what I've shared.
But there's so many things like where the water flows to the south, where there's
clear evidence of water erosion that took place after the volcano.
There's so much that points to that possibly being Atlantis.
It's spectacular.
So just to run down real quick, Plato had described Atlantis as being the
capital.
Let me just mention that because it was an empire said to be made up of 10
kingdoms.
And what I'm focusing on is the lost capital city, which was said to be made up
of concentric circles, three of water, two of land, which matches the wrist
shot structure.
It also was said to have an opening to the sea at the south.
And if you look at it from satellite imagery, you can clearly see that water
had ran through it.
Let's take a look at that.
Tell Jamie what image to pull up so we can.
And furthermore, it was said to have mountains to the north.
And you just so happen to have mountains called the Atlas mountain chain, which
Atlas was said to be the very first king of Atlantis.
And what's interesting is that the very first known king of Mauritania, which
is where the wrist shot structure is located, is also their very first known
king was also named Atlas.
And though I'm not saying that that's the same individual, but what we do today
is we pass down names, right?
Like people like, oh, my dad's name's John and so is my son.
And so it's another striking similarity, but it goes further than that.
Like there's geological similarities, such as the fact that Atlantis was said
to be made up of red, black and white colored stone, which is another
similarity you see at the wrist shot structure.
It was said to have an abundance of gold and that the outer walls were lined
with it.
And it turns out that Mauritania is loaded with gold.
And not only that, the richest person ever known to exist in all of mankind is
Mansa Musa of the Mali Empire, which consisted partly of modern day Mauritania.
And he was so rich from gold that he would be richer than Elon Musk and like Bezos
combined almost, like many unfathomable amount of billions of dollars.
So that's another similarity.
What year was this?
Oh, this is 1300s or 1400s?
There he is.
Yeah, there we are, 1312, 1337.
What a great name too, Mansa Musa.
But the similarities don't end there.
There was said to be an abundance of elephants, which is one reason why to
suggest that Atlantis would have been in Africa is because, well, besides the
fact that elephants are known to be in throughout Africa, they used to be in
Mauritania.
They're unfortunately pretty much extinct there today.
But another little detail that most people aren't aware of because they think
of Atlantis like, oh, it must be at the bottom of the ocean.
Well, that's not exactly how Plato worded it.
He did describe that the aftermath of Atlantis followed a catastrophic event
involving water is that what was left of Atlantis was reeds of grass and a shoal
of mud that prevented ships from navigating to and from.
And what people don't realize is that Sahara Africa up until about 4,500 to 5,000
years ago was totally green.
It was tropical.
It had the largest network or one of the largest networks of rivers ever known
to exist.
It had the largest freshwater lake ever known to exist, which is Mega Lake Chad,
which just to put this into perspective, it is if you take all the North
American Great Lakes combined, that's 94,000 square miles of surface area.
Whereas Mega Lake Chad was 139,000.
Whoa.
Massive.
Additionally, Atlantis, the capital, was said to have a river that went just
north of it or next to it.
And the Taman-Rasat River went right through the Rishat structure or just north
of it, went all the way to the Atlas Mountains that I described, which is in
modern-day Morocco.
And the evidence is that it existed at that same period of time when Atlantis
was said to be around 11,600 years ago prior to its destruction up until about
5,000 years ago.
So going back to my point, like a lot of people see the Sahara Desert and they
don't realize that this place was unbelievably different than it is today.
And one of the things that's so important is that I know some people listening
will, you know, they hear Atlantis, they think, oh, it didn't exist.
Right.
So whether it existed or not, the evidence that we're going to chat about today
to show you that there is conclusive evidence, I would say, that catastrophic
water erosion that the ocean had blasted through the Sahara tens of millions of
years more recently than previously known.
According to the science, 56 to 66 million years ago was the time of the Trans-Saharan
Seaway, which was the last time the ocean blasted through it.
However, there are a few lines of evidence that say otherwise.
Besides the fact that anyone that looks at the Sahara Desert through, you know,
the Google Earth app, you can see fluvial striations, which is signature traits
of water erosion.
This is confirmed by other experts that look into these things.
As far as I like to mention Randall Carlson, he's someone that's analyzed the
area and has said, yes, this is catastrophic water erosion.
But so one of the signature lines of evidence that suggests that the ocean
blasted through it far more recently was the largest volcano in Sahara Africa
is in Chad.
It's Mount Kusi.
And there is a lava flow that goes through it that is dated at 12,000 or so
years ago.
The volcano itself is supposed to be somewhere between 1.2 and 2.3 million
years ago.
But if you look at Mount Kusi to the south, you can see, and I don't know,
Jamie, if you're able to bring up one of the photos of that mountain chain, but
you can see that the water erosion cuts off that lava flow directly to the
south.
Yeah.
Keep going over a little bit right there.
Okay.
So go over a couple – that is the mountain, and you can see those striations,
which are signature traits of water erosion.
All those white blemishes are salt, and I should point out real quick that it
is a confirmed fact that much of the Sahara has surface-level salt.
And you see those white blemishes on that mountain?
That is not clouds.
That is not snow.
Those are salt deposits.
And surface-level salt that would have been from the ocean?
That is what I suggest because in the middle of that caldera, you have huge
patches of salt.
And is it reasonable to suggest that that salt existed before the creation of
that volcano?
Because it seems to me that all that molten – that salt would burn up.
And not only that, there is scientific studies that show that there are gastropods,
which are sea life, that existed inside that caldera that used to be 1,000 feet
deep and dried up just a few thousand years ago.
So the fact that this is an 11,000-foot volcano that has salt on top of it, I
would say, is corresponding evidence that the ocean had once went through it.
And if you go over a couple more images, Jamie, you will see far better images
that show you that – okay, so notice how it cuts off.
You see to the black right here?
That is a lava flow that's dated around 12,000 or so years ago.
And regardless of whether the volcano or that water erosion happened 12,000
years ago or 2 million years ago, that in itself is evidence that the ocean
blasted through the Sahara Desert literally 50 to 60 million years more
recently than previously known.
And the implications of this as far as climate science, as far as the topic of
geology and cataclysms cannot be overstated.
I mean, does it not look like that water – excuse me, that lava flow was cut
off by whatever type of erosion that is?
Does it – I mean, that's –
Yeah, completely.
Yeah, it's such a clean line.
And it aligns with all the water erosion marks that are to the left of it.
Can you make that smaller, Jamie?
Can you make it – stretch it out?
Yeah.
And – oh, sorry, go ahead.
Nothing.
It's just like – you could really clearly see that it looks like a line, like
a water line passed through what was marked by the volcanic eruption.
And this is one thing I say.
I'm like, it's visible to anyone that has eyes to see.
But it turns out that the Sahara Desert is one of the least studied places on
Earth, mostly because it's so inhospitable.
It's an average of 125 degrees Fahrenheit much of the year.
It is so unbelievably big that just to get out there – I mean, you need
reliable aircraft or vehicles.
There is – most of the countries out there are, I regret to say, third world
in that you just don't have supplies.
It's not feasible to just travel out there with a whole team on a whim.
So most of it is essentially undocumented, and it's not a site – the Sahara
as a whole isn't a site that gets much attention, unfortunately.
Ben, we've got to bring you in, otherwise it's going to talk forever.
No, I was going to say something that you mentioned about the origin of, I
guess, Plato's description.
You said it was mud and grasses, was like the aftermath.
It's interesting.
It's the topic I've been exploring recently is that that does match some of the
translations of origin stories from the ancient Egyptians.
So it's like the Temple of Horus at Edfu.
It's this amazing structure, but it's literally covered head to toe in hieroglyphs
and descriptions and all these types of things.
But one of the stories in the translations they do talk about is this – what
they would call the original point or the primordial mound, the primordial
island.
They describe it as being an island that was surrounded by water that was
sinking, and essentially these reeds
