History's Wildest Legends and Myths: Fact or Fiction? | Expedition Files | Discovery

Dr.Docs' Take

Josh Gates chasing Stonehenge, Atlantis and history's tallest tales to sort fact from fiction, grinning the entire way. I like an investigator who stays fun without tipping fully into credulous, and Gates walks that line better than most. It is a breezy, well-made tour of the legends that simply refuse to die. Hosted, clearly, by a man who wishes with his whole heart that every one of them were true.

Josh Gates investigates the world's biggest legends and myths, searching for the truth behind the stories. He revisits the mystery of Stonehenge and its unknown builders, the tale of the sunken city of Atlantis, and the historical roots behind the infamous legend of Dracula, or the mysterious Oracle of Delphi, and more! Josh Gates travels through history on a search to uncover new evidence and answers to unexplained mysteries, and true stories that defy explanation, offering revelations and new insights.
