I noticed that no one had bothered to comment or complain or ridicule the history channel's recent psuedo science documentary "Apocalypse Island." I regrettably did not get to see the whole thing but I'm guessing there was no mention of Kon-tiki type attempts to link the civilizations of Mexico & South America with the polynesian statue builders.

Well the documentary was mostly about a long boat ride to an island with an airport -apparently Robinson Crusoe Island of the coast of Chile. To discover this rock formation.

Which James Turner http://www.apocalypseisland.com/ believes to have originally looked more like this - which strikes me as a cross between Mayan and Easter Island statues. Also a mayan jaguar as well.
