Joe Rogan listeners left baffled by theory on how world will end that has finally been declassified by CIA

A guest on The Joe Rogan Experience shared a false theory which has gone viral on TikTok, according to a media watchdog

A seemingly made-up global warming theory - platformed by a guest on The Joe Rogan Experience - previously went viral on TikTok.

Nonprofit watchdog Media Matters for America shared a report in 2023, issuing caution against various videos promoting the 'Adam and Eve' theory.

The groundless 'end of the world' theory was first mentioned in The Adam and Eve Story, a book written in 1965 by Chan Thomas, an electrical engineer/psychic. The book has recently been declassified in full by the CIA.

YouTuber Jimmy Corsetti - who featured on the 18 January, 2023, edition of Joe Rogan's podcast - explained: "It happens in cycles of 6,500 years and that it’s a 90-degree flip, but six days later, around the seventh day, it corrects itself."

The investigator said it would be 'a planet flip, 90 degrees, and that because of it the Earth essentially does a standstill, the sun will be direct – will basically stay in the same spot, causing heating like we’ve never experienced – and that the wind and the waters continue with their momentum, because essentially the wind travels at approximately 1,000 miles an hour [1,609 kilometers an hour] at the equator, so the theory is that when that event happens it’s going to be cataclysmic'.

However, Media Matters says these claims, which have gained millions of views across social media platforms, are false with there being a complete lack of evidence.

"That is total bogus. If that’s what happened every 6,500 years, we would certainly see it; it would be in all the records," senior research scientist at the NASA Langley Research Center, Martin Mlynczak, told The Verge.

"The amount of energy to bring that about is tremendous. And you know, there’s nothing to initiate it.

"1,000-mile-an-hour winds are past supersonic. Just right there, I mean, the person has no idea what they’re talking about."

The outlet notes that the strongest hurricane winds can only reach around 160 miles per hour.

NASA has also said that 'there’s no evidence that Earth’s climate has been significantly impacted by the last three magnetic field excursions, nor by any excursion event within at least the last 2.8 million years'.

"While it was not written to provide an alternative explanation for climate change, The Adam and Eve Story provides a framework for interpreting its effects outside of an anthropogenic explanation," Media Matters added.

"This narrative, which shifts blame away from our fossil fuel economy onto planetary forces beyond human control, can serve as climate misinformation

"In the past, the Earth’s orbit, the Sun, and cosmic rays have all similarly been used to provide alternative explanations for climate change.

"There is overwhelming scientific consensus that climate change is caused by burning fossil fuels.

"The only way to avert increasing social, political, and ecological effects of climate change is by transitioning away from a fossil fuel economy."

Meanwhile, people in the comments always had their doubts, as one person said: "This man put two and two together and got 4,376,241."

"Happens every 6,500 years but we're 200,000 years overdue," another penned.
