In 1963, a scientist named Dr. Chan Thomas wrote a doomsday book so alarming that the CIA immediately classified it. For decades, it remained hidden.
Thomas was an American engineer and author whose fringe theories about catastrophic pole shifts and ancient civilizations found new life among 21st-century conspiracy circles.
The book, The Adam and Eve Story, posits a terrifying theory. Earth’s crust occasionally undergoes a rapid pole shift, realigning the planet’s geography in less than a day.
When a partial version was finally declassified years ago, the public saw that it describes the cyclical and catastrophic end of the world.
This isn’t a slow continental drift, but a violent, sudden lurch.
His most famous work claimed that every 7,000 years, Earth’s poles violently shift—triggering world-ending tsunamis, supersonic winds, and the total collapse of civilization.
Thomas described the cataclysm in horrifying detail: the ground stops spinning while the atmosphere and oceans, moving at 1,000 mph, continue.
The result is supersonic winds scouring the landscape and mile-high tsunamis inundating continents. Molten rock breaches the surface, and within hours, the planet freezes solid under a new, alien sky.
Civilization would be obliterated, and the pitiful survivors would be thrust back into a new Stone Age.
Dr. Thomas argued this isn’t a one-time event but a cyclical reset button on human civilization, which he believed was the sixth such advanced society to rise and fall on Earth.
He pointed to universal flood myths across cultures, like the story of Noah’s Ark, and geological evidence, like the water erosion on the Sphinx, as proof of these periodic apocalypses.
Thomas earned a degree in electrical engineering from Dartmouth College. He was an aerospace engineer with a curious résumé, but his sense of what counted as “science,” his fringe theories, and his pseudoscientific methods undermined his professional credibility.
He worked on a secret UFO research team for McDonnell Douglas, where a colleague described him as a “tremendously innovative… ‘out of the box’ thinker.”
Thomas also made unsubstantiated claims that Jesus lived in India and was abducted by aliens after the crucifixion; asserted that he had extrasensory perception (ESP); and claimed to have contacted extraterrestrial life.
Though widely dismissed as pseudoscience, his work gained notoriety when the CIA declassified excerpts of his book in 2013. It has since been promoted by conspiracy theorists on platforms like TikTok and The Joe Rogan Experience, often to frame climate change as an inevitable, unstoppable catastrophe.
While much of Thomas’s work is dismissed as pseudoscience, some of its foundations are disturbingly real.
We know magnetic pole shifts are a genuine phenomenon; the poles are moving faster than ever, and the magnetic field is weakening—a potential precursor to a flip.
NASA has confirmed that large earthquakes can slightly alter Earth’s axis and rotation.
The CIA’s decision to classify the book fuels speculation.
Was it simply the paranoid act of a Cold War agency, or did they see a kernel of terrifying truth in Thomas’s predictions?
The recent acceleration in polar migration and the increasing vulnerability of our technology-dependent society to solar storms add a chilling, contemporary urgency to his mid-century warning.
The line between fringe theory and fact is often just a matter of time.
As our planet shows increasing signs of magnetic instability, the question is no longer just about a strange book from the 60s, but about whether our time is running out.
