The Erich Von Daniken Interview

ask him why the hell no one has ever heard of him maybe ?

LOL... are you serious?

His 1st book has sold 65 million copies, right on par with Catcher in the Rye.

Seems the "no one" is you.

That's cool. Never knew he was in prison though.

guess so .. maybe ill read up on him or something. if he has anything worth value to say i will read upon some of his materials

I thought he was dead?

Interesting.

LOL...no he's very much alive and still writing books actually.

Daniken is 78 years old.

very cool~
great luck coming~

gotta think of a great question!

Should be an interesting interview.I wonder what his thoughts are of how old the Pyramids in Egypt really are and if there is a cover up to deceive us on the real builders.Also,what he thinks the purpose for why they were built.

Great author! I found his book "History is Wrong" fascinating. It was the first that I had learned of the Voynich manuscripts. It raises great questions about our history and how it has been presented to us.

Oh, you are sooo lucky!

He is a very nice man with a real twinkle in his eye...

Would you mind asking what exactly was the moment that started him on his path of Ancient Knowledge..

What sparked his interest?

Thank you.

I would like to ask for his rebuttal to this:

"The ideas put forth in his books are largely rejected by scientists and academics, who categorize his work as pseudohistory and pseudoarchaeology."

I will ask him.

Your probably thinking of Fritz von Erich. He is dead

lol... one of the original pro-wrestling promoters.

let first memorize his name
erik daniken
swedish

"No one" as in you perhaps. But you aren't everyone eh?

Chariots of the Gods was a worldwide bestseller.

protip, read more books. ;)

Could you ask him if he believes in God?

Hi Person445 - congrats on this!

I'd like you to ask him about frequencies/sonics - several of the South American stone heads appear to show what looks like headphones/hearing protection going over the ears.

Thanks - bookmarked for later

source?

OP, that's the coolest thing I've heard in a really long time - congratulations on an epic interview with a pioneering thinker an really cool dude. Every interview I've ever seen has been really chill, laid-back, well thought out and engaging.

He doesn't claim to have all of the answers but rather encourages people to question the stock answers they have been given about their origins and the history of the world. He is one of my single biggest influences when it comes to researching the unknown and I am lime green jell-o that you get to have a sit down with the man.


I personally have a theory that perhaps some of the things that we believe to be extraterrestrial may actually be of this earth but much older and more advanced than humanity has been led to believe is possible.

I would be super stoked if you could ask his if he thinks that ancient civilizations could have potentially originated on earth and still exist here to this day, but in a hidden manner such as in subterranean cities or under bodies of water (much UFO activity is also USO activity and often centered around volcanoes and large, deep bodies of water).

Again, I am super stoked for you and totally jealous. I have a million more questions for the guy, mostly related to what he may know or suspect about government knowledge into this subject. He's a pretty big name in the field, and he's had a lot of access to a lot of places most of us with never see.

Oh and thanks for the heads up on the new book.

Thank you for the kind words. Interviewing Erich Von Daniken puts me in an exclusive club... I believe only Art Bell, Snoory and Bill Ryan (for the North American audience) have interviewed Daniken in the past 20 years as far as radio goes.

Von Daniken will be doing an 80 minute segment with me...so lots of questions will be asked.

That's just so cool :)

I'd be stoked if my questions got in there (hint hint lol)

I'll be waiting for your links to be posted, and congrats again!!

Klaus Dona has covered that on my show. *see below

Hi Russell ... thanks for the opportunity. I enjoy your programs, especially the recent Ralph Ellis material. Keep up the excellent work!

I have a few (inter-related) questions if you'll indulge me. Firstly, what is von D's perspective on alchemy and its Egyptian origins? Was this ancient science promulgated by an Atlantean based culture or an even earlier proto-Khemitic group (50+ KYA)? Should he elaborate on this, please inquire further to ask if they were responsible for the Teotihuacan complex, the Toltec, the Hopewell and other meso-American mysteries

Further, who or what was Hermes/Thoth and is alchemy itself 'real' or a metaphorical exercise in the advancement of self?

Lastly if there's time... does he believe the Ark is still in Ethiopia as Hancock has suggested?

Cheers

I love Erich Von Däniken!



Will watch vids soon and come back with my questions.

Does he think there are alien clones running or influencing the world governments?

Very famous in the German-speaking world. The fate of people who write in a different language from the one you speak

is largely dependent on good translating.

He is VERY well known, I heard about him all the time in Germany.


Let me think of some questions.
