Peak discharges from Ice Age floods may not be explained by ice dams alone. A major earthquake —or even a cosmic impact into the ice sheet— could unleash forces equal to a magnitude 8 quake, fracturing ice and triggering catastrophic floods. Some geologists suggest multiple events, but even a single dam holding back 2,000 feet of water stretches plausibility. Resealing and failing again and again only multiplies the problem. | The Randall Carlson

It doesn’t add up. In our so-called advanced age, moving and stacking 5-, 10-, even 20-ton stones would be economically insane. So why would “primitive” people — nomads, hunters, early farmers — take the time to quarry and haul megaliths across miles of landscape? The mainstream story says they did it in their “spare time.” But does that really make sense? Or does it point to knowledge, techniques, and purposes we’ve forgotten? | The Randall Carlson

200,000 years of human history… shaken again and again by forces beyond our control. During the last glacial maximum, sea levels dropped 400 feet as oceans froze into vast ice sheets. Whole landscapes were reshaped, water cycles broken, and the Earth’s very shape distorted under the weight. Every melt and freeze was a cosmic heartbeat — a reminder that civilization rises and falls in rhythm with powers far greater than us. | The Randall Carlson

At the end of the Ice Age, North and South America each lost 75% of their megafauna, while Eurasia lost 35%, and Africa just 10%, leaving it with the highest diversity today. With megafauna defined as animals over 44 kg (100 lbs), the number of surviving species today is roughly equal to those that went extinct. | The Randall Carlson

151K views · 3.7K reactions | New research shows the end of the Ice Age was marked by violent pulses of destruction—especially during the Younger Dryas. These weren’t slow changes… they were sudden, catastrophic events. What caused them? And how do Heinrich events—huge surges of icebergs—fit into this mystery? Our past is far more turbulent than we’ve been told. | The Randall Carlson | Facebook

At the peak of the Ice Age, entire cities—New York, Chicago, Seattle—were under a mile and a half of ice. This wasn’t ancient history… this was just 10,000 to 25,000 years ago. But here’s the kicker: science still has no clear answer for what ended it. That’s when the real questions begin. | The Randall Carlson
