Mystical Crystal Skulls!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some stuff i like to read about in my spare time/at work....

wikipedia:
"Some believers in the paranormal claim that crystal skulls can produce a variety of miracles. Ann Mitchell-Hedges claimed that the skull she allegedly discovered could cause visions, cure cancer, that she once used its magical properties to kill a man, and that in another instance, she saw in it a premonition of the John F. Kennedy assassination.^[46]"

This guy was all about the skulls.

"Another novel and historically unfounded speculation ties in the legend of the crystal skulls with the completion of the current Maya calendar b'ak'tun-cycle on December 21, 2012, claiming the re-uniting of the thirteen mystical skulls will forestall a catastrophe allegedly predicted or implied by the ending of this calendar."
Philip Jenkins says: " By the 1970s, the crystal skulls [had] entered New Age mythology as potent relics of ancient Atlantis, and they even acquired a canonical number: there were exactly thirteen skulls. None of this would have anything to do with North American Indian matters, if the skulls had not attracted the attention of some of the most active New Age writers."

Turns out most of them were made in the 19th century in Germany with jewelers tools.
