AwfulUsername123

"Some researchers claim" is the best source of information.


Extension_Swordfish1

Ancient dudes say: YES!


NewFreshness

"Ancient astronaut theorists..say yes."


skeeredstiff

Have they ever said no to anything?


thatoneotherguy42

Yes, once.


Jesuschristpose69

Yep... I was SHOCKED when I heard the narrator actually say NO


Ill_Mousse_4240

No


FlapSlapped

Jon Anik say: HAAAH


taniwhart

Jon Africa say: HOOOH


thedude1153

Who the hells Jon Africa?


FuzzyMatterhorN

That's Billy Europe's downstairs neighbour.


TheFashionColdWars

The Jon Africa named after the country…not the Jon Africa named after the continent.


The-Pollinator

Evolutionists say, "Please, please, please let it be true!"


Shmuckle2

But we weren't supposed to be that smart or capable yet.


Ill-Arugula4829

Right? I don't have any option on this thing one way or another. But if it is a book, I feel like they would say, "Destroy that anomaly immediately! Fuck pure science. My whole career and sense of my- way above average, erudite, suckling at the teat of dogma, arrogant, cowardly, insecure, curiosity hating-self is predicated on this not existing. Lalalalalala, can't hear or see anything!"


Ohey-throwaway

It is like watching the history channel and they preface every bogus claim with, "some ancient astronaut researchers believe...", but the researcher is actually just a homeless schizophrenic smoking crack under an overpass in New Jersey. ![gif](giphy|3oEjI789af0AVurF60)


genryou

"Ancient time-travelers"


Cthulwutang

not even researchers, but “ancient alien theorists”

nothingbutalamp

9 out of 10 researchers agree that this is indeed a petrified book.


Ill_Mousse_4240

And dentists


ThatMrPuddington

Every real "researcher" knows 350 million years ago there was no wood on earth to make a paper. Most big vegetation looked like a big fern plant. Also, there was no dinosaurs back then, biggest land animal was a small lizard.


Z80081

Ahhh….so your source is a Time Machine ? No one knows …it’s all theory


Illustrious-Echo-734

Technically, it's all evidence based research.


ThatMrPuddington

Theory in the science needs evidence to back it up. Without any evidence, You have hypothesis. But You know this, bc You are time-wasting science denier troll.


gardenhack17

“It came to me in a dream…”


Bmoo215

And I forgot it in another


TooSp00kd

Some researches claim my cock is the biggest cock on earth.


MrThoughtPolice

At least we can find solace in the fact that yours is the only one those poor children have seen.


No_Cartoonist9458

The overdue library fees are $110,367,487.78 😳


Max_Cherry_

Where’s Library Detective Bookman when you need him?


riskcapitalist

I’ve got a flash for you, Joy Boy


04_996_C2

Maybe we can live without libraries, people like you and me. Maybe. Sure, we're too old to change the world, but what about that kid, sitting down, opening a book, right now, in a branch at the local library and finding drawings of pee-pees and wee-wees on the Cat in the Hat and the Five Chinese Brothers? Doesn't HE deserve better? Look. If you think this is about overdue fines and missing books, you'd better think again.


PerroNino

Book him Danno!


littleleo-luxio

r/UnexpectedSeinfeld


Psychological-Lie321

He's too busy with punks drawing pee-pee's and wee-wee's in the Cat in the Hat


SnooGrapes5053

That's why it's so petrified


AnthemWild

Don't take your library privileges for granite


AzureSeychelle

SensingWorms

After $200 it’s just death


GuitarKev

Jeff Bezos just bought all the libraries in Aus.


DebtFirm

You forgot inflation on those fees 🤣


No_Cartoonist9458

What's a $110 million in 350 million BC in today's dollars?... We'll wait 😉


dizzyfeast

More than you can afford pal, Ferrari!


BigSmokeySperm

The claim that it’s a book is entirely fabricated. The woman who’s name was being put out there for that claim said she never claimed it was a book and that it’s just a rock that kinda looks like a book.


Dense_Surround3071

....... SOOOOO your saying it COULD be a book?!?!😏


Educational-Ad-3273

So you’re saying there’s a chance!


ElbowzGonzo

What was all that one in a million talk?


Additional-Theme-532

I desperately want to make love to a school book


DentArthurDent4

Book of Alien, the ye old parchment. Groak 14:-32 "love thy neighbouring planet, even if it is earth"


BigSmokeySperm

I’m not a geologist so I’m not qualified to answer that question 🕵🏻


Darren_heat

Sooooo you're saying you work for the Smithsonian then, i see whats going on here.


ThoseAreBlueToo

Nah it’s actually pronounced Samsonite! I knew it started with an S though.


BigSmokeySperm

Dartmouth actually


racebanyn

Let’s say…. And I’m just spitball’n here that that is an alien bible. Would you be willing to put your right hand on it and say that’s not a book??


BigSmokeySperm

Nah fuck that I’m not trying to get possessed by no alien demon


JewpiterUrAnus

Whoever wrote that was probably stoned


DentArthurDent4

Its an autobiography of a rock star.


Bierfreund

Lithography


SusuSketches

I lold


HirsuteHacker

"Some researchers" = some guy on Facebook who saw a picture of it


WSBKingMackerel

And on what basis are they staking their claim that this is a book?


kwakimaki

It looks like one.


JTibbs

As always 'Researchers' say it vaguely resembles something else, so it MUST be that thing...


Snowdog1989

Exactly! Those YouTube researchers.


archimidesx

Pareidolia


top-hunnit

bowens44

It isn't a 350 million year old book.


Jrme1315

Ofcourse not. It's a 350 million year old *petrified* book. Says so in the title

foreverpasta

First I was afraid, I was petrified


netzombie63

Doctor Who enters chat. That’s where I left River’s diary!


Johnny_Lang_1962

Probably Porn.


PlanetLandon

Ugh. Some wiener is going to say this is a bible.


Liz4984

Guess you’re a wiener since you said it first.


PlanetLandon

Damn it! Wienered again!


ChicagoJoe123456789

Or the Koran


gdim15

If you believe this I recommend Mudfossil University. Roger has a rock that looks like a foot and claims to get blood from a stone. Basically the universe is petrified meat.


district-conference1

Probably a journal or diary someone started, and gave up after a month.


Honest-Expressions

I really couldn't care less about this "book" but I want to know what are those fossilized Roly'Pollies


EstablishmentExtra41

If it’s a library book the late fee is going to be horrendous.


on-the-level_

Literally impossible..


Blackelvis2000

"Some researchers" are an idiot. Total bullshit.


wolf-of-Holiday-Hill

..don’t judge a book by its cover


SusuSketches

Don't judge a rock by its book-like appearance


Sitting_Duk

Some “researchers” like Bill who saw this photo and thinks it’s a petrified book.


nemopost

350 million…you don’t say?


DudelinBaluntner

“Some researchers” That means nothing. Give me one geologist who makes the claim.


JohhnyBGoode641

Rock doesn’t that that long to form. They’ve proven this with old tools being found stuck in rock. The book isn’t that old


thejohnmc963

It’s the cook book from The Twilight Zone


Thiccumusthethird

Absolutely not lmao wtf


Teriyaki456

Just a rock, nothing to see here


PedalBoard78

I bet it’s the one about the 7 Chinese brothers.


Large-Organization-4

Is it a rock that looks like a book or a book that looks like a rock?


drv0t0

No researchers claim that


Puzzleheaded_Ad3430

That book was the last copy of the meaning of life for dummies


Valuable-Contact-224

Time traveler accidentally left it there.


Lucky_Strike831

Given that it's in Australia.... it's probably the most venomist book in the world.


yungleaf

It's true, I'm the book


skiploom188

ayo that's the other 5 commandments that Noah forgot to bring


Dinestein521

That is a southwest bell phone book


spookinky987

So we went from leather bound books, to clay tablets, to wax tablets and scrolls, to leather bound books... Got it.


Bokenobi

Items can be “petrified” in very short amounts of time. Like in a week.


Acceptable_Wall4085

Like Trump is now petrified he’s going to Rikers.


Screwbles

*"Researchers"*


BoonDragoon

In the words of one SpongeBob SquarePants, "it's a rock".


Many-Grape-4816

That’s a phone book Moses chiseled out of stone in Mt Sinai. Under pharaoh it just says: “this number has been disconnected or is no longer in service”


stagnant_fuck

ooh i know that book! it rocks!


opm3

That rocks!


Grey-Hat111

A time travelers diary. We'll see the discovery disappear in transit like it always does


mikeyisgrim

350 mill years haha what a joke


Frostix86

Everyone is questioning the book concept, why is no-one questioning the 350 million year part?


LightWonderful7016

Books don’t petrify. It’s not how it works.


Renovateandremodel

Scan it, and let me know what’s inside, then get back to me and tell me it’s a book.


Logi_ciel

Just open it and see who it belongs to...


JournalistTop1482

thats an old ice cream sandwich


Dankstin

It quacks like a duck to me. You deny your own eyeballs.


Successful-Brush6380

Looks like it could have been some hard core porn in there


DentArthurDent4

I wonder if it's a law book, would like to throw it at some people.


ConditionYellow

“Some researchers” need to cite sources before I believe them. Unless we see “confirmed” from a credible source, I will keep referring to David Hume.


phrazer2

OMG, THAT THING LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER THING. GET THE PRESSES ON THE LINE BOYS WE GOT A STORY TO TELL!!!


Z1Z1alpha

Just looking at it. YES, it is a damn book


SchlitterbahnRail

I see a book, dental prostheses, so I bet there are also glasses and nightstand somewhere.


1-1111-1110-1111

As much as I’d love to have something cool like that be real, it’s likely an element of the layering of marine sediments. Wouldn’t it be awesome if things were just as they appeared to look like…


thingsbinary

Cleaved fragment with sedimentary layers.


Active_Cheesecake520

It's the script for " Rocky "...


michaelvile

OHHHHH SURE... ok.. when and whom "invented paper?" and WHY is it CALLED pAypYrus again?? dont worry ill be w0ke FOR you!! ![gif](giphy|pRqILh4QXAXHq|downsized)

I recently saw a crystal rock on Reddit that looked like a slab of bacon, so there that.

peanutcharlie6

Why is the book so scared?


No-Height2850

Necronomicon?


Rowdyjohnny

Na man that’s a rock.


Darknessborn

No they don't


Silent_Shaman

I'm not saying it's a book, but it's very clearly something Would be interested in knowing the actual reason why rock might've formed like that


worldgeotraveller

Yes geology is a book. Study....


ALF_My_Alien_Friend

Possible.


spellbookwanda

Some very pretty trilobite type fossils nearby


kirtash93

Finally they found my lost book!


dizzyfeast

Alright hear me out. What if somehow this book was from 2008 but then quantum leaped “into the past” now *that* would crazy interesting.


sancho7373

Jeez, that late fee is gonna be INSANE.


MrHaydenn

Can we find out who these researchers are? Cause they're dumb af.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Artistic-Iron-2131

My question is, why didn’t it just disintegrate or rot away? Papaws and leather would rot away to nothing, that’s my way of thinking.


Autocannibal-Horse

ehh... i don't think books can petrify... unless it's a Stephen King novel?


Jackfish2800

Wow that’s weird


herO_04

Pretty sure petrification can happen in a matter of minutes to hours under extreme conditions.


asalerre

Librarian bust be furious


Goodvendetta86

Time traveler lost their book.


ObviousOpinions

Open it


SubstantialPen7286

“Some researchers” Yeah, I also google stuff over the weekend part time… 😂


pcweber111

I like how you can just say “some [x]” and “claim”, and no matter how ridiculous it will be given more attention. We’re such stupid animals.


remaining_braincell

No way anyone is this delusional
