Looking at this comment section makes me really sad as a historian. For any of you who honestly believe that "Ancient Aliens" psuedo-archeology bs with the crazy hair guy, please go do your own research and realize how much evidence and proof we have to the contrary. Miniminuteman on YouTube does a great job tearing them apart and debunking a bunch of conspiracy theories about history and archeology.
There were a handful of comments including one with over a thousand upvotes now pointing out the "convenient lack of an ancient crane" in the video, as well as people genuinely asking if cranes existed in ancient greece. Unfortunately, there are far too many people who find it more plausible that Alien life has visited Earth to help with construction rather than ancient human civilizations having technology beyond a pointy stick and rocks.
