the reason the tower didn't work was because

The ancient Sumerians have always fascinated me. Their "Epic Of Gilgamesh" details events that are also detailed in the Bible, historical events that don't have to have a religious mystique surrounding them just to be simple recorded history. This story of Gilgamesh talks of "gods from the skies" and their "machines" that transported them around. (Not "trasnsport" as in the Star Trek transporters.) There is a passage in the Bible located in Genesis chapter 10 that I think ties up with this Sumerian story. Genesis 10 is the story about the Tower of Babel, just to familiarize you with it.
The people there decided to build a "tower to the heavens" and reach God. As we all know for a fact, a tower built on earth cannot reach into the "heavens." The builders would have eventually reached a point outside of the atmosphere and couldn't breathe any more to build it higher. And mathematics would also tell us that to reach outer space, the base would have had to be bigger than the entire surface of the earth. But, God was still worried about something, so he "confused" their language so the tower couldn't be finished. And it was never completed.
We have towers today that can reach the heavens. They are called "launch towers." I've always felt that that was what God was worried about. The "gods from the skies" the Sumerians wrote about could have passed on some of their information about their technology to the Sumerians. And God didn't think man was ready to fly out into space, so he put the kabosh on the whole project.
I mean, think about it. Do you think you could build a tower out of clay bricks that could reach into outer space?

Perhaps the rings represent the “5” Elements…..in it’s different permutations according to different sciences and religions.
Oogle it…there’s quite of few meanings for “5” Elements.

I’m intrigued.
Your first YouTube link doesn’t work.
Allow me to oblige. Here is the full TV show, with the relevant segment beginning around 1.17.30, and the alleged UFO footage viewable at 1.18.30.
PS: I see Violater1 has posted a different link, but many may be interested in seeing the whole documentary. It's a delicious piece of UFO history, and although the footage proves nothing, the context remains intriguing!
If we impose on a map of the earth a 'world grid' with Giza (not Greenwich) as its prime meridian, then hidden relationships become immediately apparent between sites that previously seemed to be on a random, unrelated longitudes. On such a grid, as we've just seen, Tiruvannamalai stands on longitude 48 degrees east, Angkor stands on longitude 72 degrees east and Sao Pa stands out like a sore thumb on longitude 90 degrees east -- all numbers that are significant in ancient myths, significant in astronomy (through the study of precession), and closely interrelated through the base-3 system.

Do you acknowledge the Nicene creed?
If so, it means you also subscribe to the Sumerian mythology, which it came from
The Sumerian SEVEN SAGES OF APKALLU, Are exactly the same thing as ...
The Christian SEVEN SEALS OF APOCALYPSE
So unless "John" was Sumerian, he robbed Sumerian graves
Because the Sumerian version is dated at over 1,000 years before "Johns" version
I'll break it down very simply, relative to the Nicene creed
The Seven Sages are listed as:
1. Uanna, "who finished the plans for heaven and earth",
2. Uannedugga, "who was endowed with comprehensive intelligence",
3. Enmedugga, "who was allotted a good fate",
4. Enmegalamma, "who was born in a house",
5. Enmebulugga, "who grew up on pasture land",
6. An-Enlilda, "the conjurer of the city of Eridu",
7. Utuabzu, "who ascended to heaven".
Now compare this list and sequence to the Nicene creed:
1. Uanna, "who finished the plans for heaven and earth",
1. I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible.
2. Uannedugga, "who was endowed with comprehensive intelligence",
2. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds; God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God; begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made.
3. Enmedugga, "who was allotted a good fate",
3. Who, for us men for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary, and was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate; He suffered and was buried; and the third day
4. Enmegalamma, "who was born in a house"
4. He rose again, according to the Scriptures; and ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of the Father; and He shall come again, with glory, to judge the quick and the dead; whose kingdom shall have no end.
5. Enmebulugga, "who grew up on pasture land",
5. And I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Lord and Giver of Life; who proceeds from the Father and the Son; who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified; who spoke by the prophets.
6. An-Enlilda, "the conjurer of the city of Eridu",
6. And I believe one holy catholic and apostolic Church
7. Utuabzu, "who ascended to heaven".
7. I acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins; and I look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
Without going into too much detail in this thread, the Seven Sages/Seven Seals actually talk about layers of spectrum, within dimension and perception
The Nicene creed defines this listing/sequence of perspective spectrum, within dimension and perception, using stages of personification of the individual who "perceives"
It goes much, much deeper. But there is little point explaining, without first going into great detail as to how these spectrum layers (or dimensions) fit together and work
---
Most importantly, regarding what you posted ...
No modern Church or religion has ever been honest and acknowledged the Sumerian roots of their books and teachings
Even though, the entire foundation of their belief systems and faith, are built upon, and based upon such roots
This means that to speak ill of the Sumerian "Gods" in the way you did, as a Christian, is not only hypocritical, but is apostasy unbecoming of your own beliefs and faith
