1. 0:00What if it isn't 2026, [music] but 1729?
2. 0:04This video is for entertainment purposes
3. 0:06only. A German author named Heribert
4. 0:09Illig says almost 300 years of our
5. 0:11history [music] happened. In 1991, he
6. 0:15went public with what he calls phantom
7. 0:17[music] time. 297 years from the year
8. 0:20614 to 911 slipped [music] into our
9. 0:24calendar. The kings, the wars, the
10. 0:26saints, even Charlemagne, the father of
11. 0:29Europe, would just [music] be a
12. 0:30character in a story. He started with
13. 0:32the calendar. Julius Caesar's calendar
14. 0:35slips about a day every 128 years.
15. 0:37[music] From Caesar to 1582, that adds
16. 0:40up to almost 13 days. But when Pope
17. 0:43Gregory fixed it, [music] his
18. 0:44astronomers only had to skip 10. October
19. 0:474th, 1582 was followed by October 15th.
20. 0:51So where did the other three days
21. 0:52[music] go? Illig says they're the
22. 0:54fingerprint of about three centuries
23. 0:56that nobody ever lived. Then he looked
24. 0:59in the ground. [music] Illig says finds
25. 1:01that can be firmly dated to those
26. 1:02centuries are strangely scarce. [music]
27. 1:04And the most famous building of the age,
28. 1:06Charlemagne's chapel in Aachen with its
29. 1:08great [music] stone dome, another German
30. 1:10researcher says it seems to come
31. 1:12approximately 200 years too early.
32. 1:15[music] So who would invent 300 years?
33. 1:18Illig points to two men, Otto III,
34. 1:21crowned emperor at 16, [music] and his
35. 1:23teacher, Gerbert, a mathematician who
36. 1:25helped bring Arabic numerals to Europe.
37. 1:27[music] In 999, Otto made him Pope.
38. 1:30Later, legends even claimed he kept a
39. 1:32talking bronze head that answered his
40. 1:33questions. Their dream was to rule
41. 1:36[music] at the turn of the millennium,
42. 1:37the year 1,000. And for that, they
43. 1:40needed a legend to inherit, Charlemagne.
44. 1:43Imagine [music] it, three centuries of
45. 1:45kings and battles and miracles written
46. 1:48[music] in like a chapter that was never
47. 1:49there. And here's the strangest part. In
48. 1:52the spring of the year 1,000, Otto
49. 1:54opened Charlemagne's tomb. [music] A
50. 1:56chronicle says the old emperor wasn't
51. 1:58lying down. He was sitting on throne,
52. 2:00crowned [music] with a scepter in his
53. 2:02gloved hands, and his fingernails had
54. 2:04broken through the gloves. The tip of
55. 2:06his nose was missing, [music] so Otto
56. 2:08replaced it with gold. Then he took one
57. 2:10of the teeth. So if Charlemagne was made
58. 2:13up, who is [music] sitting on that
59. 2:14throne? Notice who's holding the
60. 2:16calendar in this story. In 999, a pope.
61. 2:20In 1582, a pope. If Illig is right, the
62. 2:24calendar on your wall isn't [music]
63. 2:25counting time, it's counting a story.
64. 2:28And whoever wrote that story got to
65. 2:29choose what year you live in. So [music]
66. 2:32what year do you think it really is?
