The clip from ArtAlienTV explores conspiracy theories surrounding Atlantis and ancient underwater or polar structures using a mix of news footage, historical maps, and Google Earth imagery set to a relaxed, instrumental guitar and synth backing track. It kicks off with a short news report about Portuguese sailor Diocleciano Silva, who claimed to discover a 60-meter-tall submerged pyramid near the Azores on sonar in 2013. From there, around the 1:15 mark, the video transitions to Google Earth screen recordings highlighting grid-like bathymetric anomalies in the Atlantic Ocean near Madeira and the Canary Basin, measuring them with Google Earth's ruler tool and comparing images before and after Google Earth data updates.
By the 3:25 mark, the video draws a straight longitude line down 24 37 W from the Azores to Antarctica, pointing out a pyramid-shaped mountain formation in the Read Mountains near the Shackleton Range. After comparing the surface areas of the Great Pyramid of Giza, the underwater Azores anomaly, and this massive Antarctic formation, the video wraps up with artist impressions of sunken Atlantean ruins and a brief teaser at 5:43 showcasing various odd-shaped rocks from NASA's Mars Curiosity rover.
While the ambient guitar soundtrack makes for a surprisingly relaxing background, the arguments rely almost entirely on classic visual misinterpretations. The grid patterns seen on Google Earth ocean floors are well-known artifacts caused by sonar swath mapping from survey ships rather than lost underwater cities, and the Antarctic pyramid is simply a natural nunatak or mountain peak emerging through the ice sheet. It is an entertaining mashup of internet mystery tropes, but it treats digital sonar artifacts and mountain geometry as definitive proof of a forgotten global empire.
