We could start a whole new thread about the Ancient Aliens programs. Some of what they claim makes sense to me but most of it I take as utter nonsense.

Russian subs in Swedish and Finnish territorial water are a myth according to Kremlin.
Finland’s navy has detected a so-far unidentified object in the sea near Helsinki. The object was detected in Finnish waters near the territorial limit around mid-day Monday - and again on Monday night.
Following the findings naval officials detonated low-impact depth charges around 3.00 am this morning.

Well, It has happen before:)
33 wars against the Russian Bear together with Finland and Estonia...

Comments from Russia about the last incident:)
Russian Deputy Defense Minister Anatoly Antonov stated that the notice of alleged Russian submarines in the EU States territorial waters are part of the information war that the West carries against Russia.

Ok. Ancient Aliens is funny to Watch.
But America Unearthed....
Talk about bad science.

Scott Wolter is the host of that TV show in History Channel.

http://www.history.com/shows/america-unearthed/videos

His big "triumph" is the Kensingon rune stone.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kensington_Runestone
But he is totally wrong.
A Norwegian intervier asked him if he could prove it's autencity.
He said he could but instead of giving some proofs he pointed at the camera and said that Henrik Williams (Expert in runes) should sue him for being a lier...

Are you serious?
I haven't seen Scott Wolters rubbish TV show.
Only his crap about the Kensington rune stone.
He is certain that Norwegians and Swedes sent an expedition to America in 1362.
That's nonsense.
A possible origin for the irregular shape of the runes was discovered in 2004, in the 1883 notes of a then-16-year-old journeyman tailor with an interest in folk music, Edward Larsson. Larsson's aunt had migrated with her husband and son from Sweden to Crooked Lake, just outside Alexandria, in 1870. Larsson's sheet lists two different Futharks. The first Futhark consists of 22 runes, the last two of which are bind-runes, representing the letter-combinations EL and MW. His second Futhark consists of 27 runes, where the last 3 are specially adapted to represent the letters å, ä, and ö of the modern Swedish alphabet. The runes in this second set correspond closely to the non-standard runes in the Kensington inscription.

That f**g runstone was carved in 1882!
By whom we dont know but most likely done as a prankster:)

Soon on History Channel 2, Julie:)
They will find compelling evidences that the story is true.
One story about Lot who became a salt statue because looking back is a compelling evidence that aliens fired a nuclear bomb in Palestine:)

Sorry Bob. But Scott Wolter makes me go ballistic:)
Maybe Erik Williams SHOULD sue him as Scott suggest!
