Lemuria vs. Atlantis: The War that Sank a Continent

For thousands of years, the world has been captivated by the mystery of Atlantis. The concept of an ancient city hidden beneath the ocean is fascinating.

But what if there was not just a city, but an entire continent buried beneath the waves?

The continent of Lemuria is a massive landmass believed to have sunk in the Indian Ocean after some ancient, catastrophic event. 

Atlantis and Lemuria are similar in that they’ve sparked numerous theories, legends and interpretations.

But Atlantis and Lemuria are very different in one way. There’s no proof of Atlantis.

Tremendous research you and the team at WF do for every episode. The best research in the web )) And entertaining to watch !

Another amazing escape from my hectic nursing job. Thanks for the reset👌

the pictures match plato's description

There is speculation that the eye of Africa is Atlantis.

Great episode as always. The plushie arrived to Tokyo.. The quality is much better than I expected. Especially the teeth. Thinking of getting one for my kids too.

Thanks for all the hard work! Always excited to see the new episodes and definitely look forward to a deeper look into the Annunaki!

Adam Hardenburgh

Loved the EP. I like these. Really makes me think and wonder a bit?

Don Stewart

This was an extremely interesting episode! I have always wondered about Atlantis and other lost places. Thank you so much for this episode!

John Lane

Yes, by "science" I am talking about scientists as a whole.

Susi Su

Haha, I kept waiting for a big debunk, but it turned out to be more complex than expected. Love the new lyrics and I really love your sponsor ads 💕😁

Led Nicky

Great episode The next Episode sounds really interesting . I studied the Kabbala and Gnostic Theism and that sounds very close to those ideological ideas that speaks about the Demiurge Theory/Beliefs.

Adam (Pappy) Koehler

Yessss!! Great Episode!! 🙌🏼🐪✨💫

Karie Brown

Love the show! Been a faithful follower since February. Tonight I joined the Patreon family. Looking forward to joining the fun.

Bad-Haggis

Great episode! Your sense of humor and happiness is uplifting. Keep it up!

ObserverJM

It's not science that is arrogant, it is people. Most (especially early) archeology was funded by Europeans. Anything that didn't fit their narrative of history was ignored or buried.

ObserverJM

National Geographic funded an expedition there. It was halted a few days in with no explanation.

ObserverJM

WF never fails to entertain. Love this.

Smolly

YAS!! The New Theme Song is Freaking Amazing 🤘😝🤘

Bobbie Zarate

Fantastic as always, AJ, HF, WF Team!! The updated theme song is rad, love it!

B. Roxy Rogers

AJ you did it again what an awesome show I absolutely loved it ! You rock!

Donni Wilcox

Got my Hecklefish plushie in just in time for the premiere

Kenneth Wilson

Great new outro song!

DS_the_RN

wait, a dog's sack is a compliment? holy shit, all these years people telling me I have a face like a dog's sack and they were telling me I was good looking? Damn!

Bosco Lemonzit

I worked for apple for 9 years doing phone support and lost count of the number of calls from someone because some kid grabbed their phone and changed the language to chinese or hebrew.

Bosco Lemonzit

Great show! It always has me counting the days until Thursday. I can’t think of anything you haven’t covered so I’m excited to see what’s next. What up Hecklefish! ✌🏼❤️

Rocky Baroli

What a great good romp! Always a most enjoyable way to piss-away 30 to 50 minutes!!! The Why-Files is some of the best "brain-candy" that may be found anywhere in the interweb!

Mustafa's Fleas

A friendly hello from a fellow Idahoan 👋🏼

Rocky Baroli

New outro is amazing, great episode and great work as always!

D Reinke

When Pangea split apart, 200 - 175 million years ago, Antarctica was in the middle. Wikipedia has a good map of it, and it looks suspiciously like the hypothesized Lemuria and fits the geographic and fossil record bills. The problem is the timing. 200 million years ago would be early Jurassic period. Additionally it took at least 25 million years for the drift to occur, and is still going on.

Cris Paltenghe

Thomas Pynchon wrote a novel about a time traveling Lemurian that goes into this very battle and how it’s shaped our present.

Ryan Blankenship

Absolutely the best in months!! The last two episodes have been so great. Reminds me why I fell in love with the channel last year. My first episode was the Egyptians in the grand canyon. Hooked me so hard. This has the same feel and I love it. Great job guys ❤❤

John and Melissa Jett

This episode was fantastic, just like all of your episodes: well-researched and also clear and concise. My favorite episodes are always ones like this meaty one! There is a sprinkle of religion, myth, the supernatural, history, archaeology, science, even some maps thrown in. These episodes provoke deep thought and inspire big questions, and a big desire to know a lot more. The extra work these type of episodes require is obvious, and like posting resources, greatly appreciated. Thank you for all of it. On a different note (see what I did there?), the outro song is ABSOLUTELY PERFECTION!! I keep playing it over and over!! MORE GERTIE- made me giddy happy. I love Gertie—more Gertie and HeckleLord—do I smell backstory? A franchise?!?!? She’s so enigmatic. Is there a dark secret buried in their relationship- like the skeletons in your closet? Do you think it would make HeckleLord jealous if we started a Gertie Fan club? Did I mention I LOVE & ADORE Gertie?

Desiderata

Hello, Great episode! Anyone know when we can expect to receive our Hecklefish plushies??

Adeana in Idaho

The hall is rented, the orchestra engaged, it’s now time to see if you can dance! The why files team can definitely dance

Andrew Ellis

L-Y-R-I-C-S ! Dance, Gertie!! 🕺 🐪 💃🏻

NorthwoodsJen

Now do Zealandia! =D

Maddoktor2

I don't know, if you think song lyrics will prove you are not crazy, I just don't know. I can remember lyrics to every Supertramp, Pink Floyd, and Monkees, song ever done, hasn't helped me a bit prove to anyone I'm sane. Of course, supertramp being my fav all time group does start me behind the 8 ball....

Bosco Lemonzit

well said, it always scratches that itch - I've spent many hours thinking about this home that has formed for so many, the weekly shows, after files, friday morning shindig, it's become such an important part for so many of us in our lives and why. no answers, but that 'it always scratches that itch' was just a dead solid perfect description.

Bosco Lemonzit

Great episode! I have always loved the closing but today when I heard it it just made me smile. I love the new lyrics!!! Absolutely perfect!!!

S D Hall

got me, I answered you 11 hours ago and still don't see my response to your question you hadn't asked yet.

Bosco Lemonzit

cheer up, the same people programing AI and self driving cars are the offspring of the programmers that brought you the blue screen of death for 30 years and counting. it's bound to shut itself down after deleting all the files one day.

Bosco Lemonzit

I mean the idea for the code word, I don't like having a wet ass. I'M NOT THAT OLD DAMNIT!

Bosco Lemonzit

I like it!

Bosco Lemonzit

Here we come? Actually, that might be the best way, get all the 'nutters of the world' who listen to Art Bell reruns, C2C, Why Files etc, there must be enough of us to surround Mt Shasta 100 yards deep and then everyone just start climbing up together, all tens of thousands, hey, who's kidding who, it will be millions, and what are the lizzard peeeeople gonna do? We just all walk up the mountain, everyone squeezing their Hecklefish Plushy at the mountain to ward off evil spirits. They will all leave earth and never come back, except the reptilians here amongst us, their heads will just explode when Shasta empties. They way to defeat them is with our strength, the tens of millions of American people with nothing better to do and a huge woodstocky event in a pot is legal state to look for aliens? They don't have a chance against us! Don't forget the Slim Whitman CDs and records.

Bosco Lemonzit

Another Great episode, well made. Thank you. It always scratches that itch... what if, and leaves you pondering.

Brandon Rieger

Loved this episode…there is SO much we just don’t know about our past…the way you put all the pieces together in this episode was brilliant…and OMG the new song with TWF lyrics is the absolute best!!

Skeptical_Savage

YAHTZEE!!!!! Great Job!!!

Philip Booth

I need the lyrics to prove to myself I am not crazy

Karl poff

👎🏼

Deontay Hieb

I love this sort of thing. The stuff that traditional science/archaeology says doesn't exist. I've been watching Graham Hancock's Ancient Apocalypse in the last week, and it's all fascinating. I don't understand why science is so arrogant to insist that current knowledge is all there can be, especially when developments are happening all the time. Edit: New song...............great lyrics, but the pitch was a bit too much. Had to turn it down. Shrill! Headache! Ow!

Susi Su

I love the updated outlook song and the constant respect to Art Bell.

Scott Crawford

An excellent episode! The quality doesn’t change! :)

Craig Walker

Annunaki!! Yeeeessss!!!

Jeffrey Thomas

I've never seen that Cuban sunken city before and I love this stuff. That one is beyond nuts. There's literally no logical way that could exist without so many things we've been taught in geosciences are completely wrong. 650m below sea level? What? There's almost nothing on it online. Sus.

Jim W

AJ said Atlanta instead of Atlantis one time. Let’s see if you can spot where!

Jamarr Mays

"What's buzzin sexy cousin" is how I greet everyone from this day forward

Emily Haag

How do you master storytelling this well, be it true or false. You ARE the best out there and I'm so happy for you that so many are Patrons! Waiting for my talking Hecklefish plushie!!! <3

Guylaine Boivin

how did they get through the Van Allen Belt, Jen?

Lancer3693

Why did this only pop up 2 hrs ago yet it says posted 9 hrs ago?

Trey M

Anunnaki episode. Can't wait.

Jeff Sanchez

This was good but my all-time favorite so far is the one about a month ago on AI!!!! Still haunts me!

Wilma Titzgreaux

tomorrow night’s code word for the prize should be “WETASS!”

Wilma Titzgreaux

Where’s Gino?

Wilma Titzgreaux

I'm eager for the annunaki show too! You tell a super story! I really liked this episode! So much fun! Thank you!!!

DonnaG

That would be very cool. Super chat that idea in to him on the live show tomorrow.

Chase Schleich

“Under a mountain in California.” First timer: “wow, where!?” Long timers: “Mt Shasta baby, here we go!!” I love this channel and community, thank you AJ!

Crazy Dave

Awesome episode. My wife is going to love it!

Greg Miller

Thank you for another great episode AJ, Hecklefish, Ms. Jen, Ms. Victoria, and Gino.

Marcus Aurelius

Okay, the new lyrics are a hit. Great episode as always. “GERTIELOVESTODANCE” has to be tomorrow nights prize phrase.

Ed E Buskirk

Excellent episode!!

NikkiBubblesMom

That sounded like Picard, glad he's getting work. Wetass...perfect, you do know we are all going to call it that now. Loved the episode, so much information and we all appreciate your hard work, thank you!

Helle

😂🤣😂🤣 Love the new lyrics!

Jennifer Hope

Another amazing episode! Thanks so much AJ and hecklefish. I'm hoping in our lifetime many more discoveries will be made that may prove Atlantis and Lemuria are real.

Jennifer Hope

I have scuba dived Yonaguni and it is amazing!

Daniel Wasserott

I'd love to see a "Making of a WF episode". How do y'all do so much research, recording, editing, etc every week. It's immensely impressive.

Whiskey Tango-Foxtrot

A Great story, different from the norm and that is okay because when we get back to the aliens and the Lizzid people they will be so much more scarier!

John Edgeworth

I loved this one... don't know how you kids do it, though. So great, every week! Awesome end credits this time!

Trish Edwards

Does anyone know where AJ got the opening scene for the live streaming. Looks a little bit like Space Odyssey.

Wilma Titzgreaux

Fun episode. Can’t wait for the Anunnaki.

Brian Lantz

Another great episode…? If you keep this up, we’re going to be expecting too much from you. 🤣

Jeremy Shorter

Love the closing song lyrics!

Wendaruth

I love the song remix! Gerty loves to dance, I'll dance with Gerty too! <3

Sunkissed Penumbra

Close up Nurse lol And new lyrics 😳🤘

Colin Butterworth

The Smithsonian knows where the lost continents are!!!

Connie Brand

The song. 🥰🐪🐟

Shanon Freeman

There is a Shasta Episode

AC

That was the absolute dog's bollocks (translation: super fantastically good)! Every episode of TWF has been truly wonderful. Please keep them coming, cheers!

thormusique

Finish the surgery first, let the nurses finish sewing him up

Bosco Lemonzit

*girlish excited squealing* 😍

Autumn Spredemann

You are going to need a separate video just for your patreons. The list is getting impressively long... WOCKA WOCKA

Safe and effective!

That was SO good. I truly hope you make what you deserve doing this. It certainly seems like you enjoy doing it, and we thoroughly enjoy every minute you provide! Thanks team! 💕

Rio Reason

Great episode and a fun end credit song. Anyone interested in Polar reversal science and cyclic cataclysms should check out Douglas Vogt @ the Diehold foundation http://www.dieholdfoundation.com/ and https://www.youtube.com/@dieholdfoundation6705 - Doug is one of the smartest guys I know and receives very little credit for his original groundbreaking work. Peace.

william john travis morgan

Never leave your phone unlocked around nieces & nephews in a family of brutal pranksters!🫣🫥🥸😳🙄 "Madagascar" became some sort of cannonball? I will kill them all! I'm dying a slow death of embarrassment. This happens a LOT more than it should b / c I got divorced w/ no kids & retired in my 40s, so my apple product security is pretty lax around home to put it mildly! Ugh!

ExCalibur623

I do love that song. Very very clever.

Jackson

The song was always great, but now it’s PERFECT.

LizardWhisperer

Smashed another episode outta the park again! I do love it when HF get's excited... Can see why he is a hit with the laydees!

Jackson

Smashing good

elMexineck

Yaaay. Can't wait to watch!

Jason Moore

I like how you rolled the Patrons list backwards!

Christopher Nichols

Looking forward to the Annunaki episode!

William Scott

I may have to turn in my tinfoil hat. While I’ve heard of Atlantis, Lemuria only recently popped up on my radar, although I have heard conjecture on a lost continent, Perhaps I just didn't know the name. Good storytelling and good new lyrics!

MikeD

Sounds interesting. As AJ would say himself, send it in on the tips line so it doesn’t get lost.

MikeD

I love the wonders of this world! Just when someone thinks they've got it figured out, well, seems they don't. What's the truth? I won't even pretend to know.

Rick Tucker

Great episode buddy😁🤌 im from norway, we have some strange lights here in a place called Hessdalen. No one still can explaine this. Maby you could look into it and see what u find out aboute them😊😉 tnx fore all your work to m8 🤜🤛 i think your show is great😁

Rolf Magne Kårbø

love it!

Gods Demon

This was an awesome episode. So fun. And as informative as ever.

Saturn's Dad.

oh, and 25th, damnit!

Bosco Lemonzit

This was amazing, a topic I rarely paid any attention to and thus knew little about and it was a fascinating story! Thanks

Bosco Lemonzit

Well done. Loved the credits, music Gertie and HF, AJ! Lovely jiggle!

Donna Marie Schmink

Love this episode, so well done, definitely worth waiting for. Also love the new version of the closing song, so funny. I received my 3 plushies yesterday and they are awesome and work perfectly! A great Why Files? week. Thanks so much!

Brenda H

I like the new lyrics. great episode as always. thanks for all the hard work.

SpaceMatt Spliff

Great story! Looking forward to the Annunaki episode!

Kris L

Great, great, great! Always been interested in Atlantis, and read a bunch of Edgar Cayce's readings. The research y'all do enhances everything I've already read. Thanks! Keep it up!

Pete Mitchell

This was awesome!!

Ryan Gallant

Great Vid. 👍

Daniel Nye

Cool ending song!! :) Vicky H

Vicky Humphrey

Apollo 20 after files 1:54:47 to 1:55:12... one of my favorite moments from the live files...cheers y'all!

Trodden An3urysm

Another intriguing episode. I have to say, I'd love you to bundle all the legends, stories and info on Mt. Shasta and do an entire episode. What an adventure.

Kazren

Love this one - you really are Professional AJ!I love the mystery , the suspense and the tantalising evidence and asides from Hecklefish 🧡😎

Julia Fox

Loved it! Great episode guys! I look forward to Wednesday and Thursday’s...👍

Oh Why Files team, you just improved my day by 10000%! Thank you!

Drew Lane

YES!!! I've been hoping for a full episode delving into Lemuria since the Mount Shasta episode! Can't wait to get home and watch this. TWF=💚

Doc Hollidxy

Should I work or should I watch? Work can wait lol

Colin Butterworth

Wooo! You just made my day!
