40
00:10:23,416 --> 00:10:25,668
So, how long are you in New York?

41
00:10:25,835 --> 00:10:28,212
Leaving in a few days.

42
00:10:28,379 --> 00:10:30,548
Going home for Christmas.

43
00:10:34,135 --> 00:10:36,178
My name is Heyerdahl.

44
00:10:36,345 --> 00:10:39,557
- Thor Heyerdahl.
- Yes, you already said that.

45
00:10:42,101 --> 00:10:44,020
[footsteps approaching]

46
00:10:44,186 --> 00:10:47,523
[man clears throat] The wise men
of anthropology are quite clear

47
00:10:47,690 --> 00:10:51,152
that Polynesia was not
populated from the east.

48
00:10:51,319 --> 00:10:53,904
Wise men are not always right, sir.

49
00:11:00,369 --> 00:11:03,956
Look around you. Every book in here
offers some theory or another.

50
00:11:04,123 --> 00:11:07,710
Most written by one man,
read by perhaps only ten,

51
00:11:07,877 --> 00:11:09,503
of whom nine disagreed
with the theory.

52
00:11:09,670 --> 00:11:12,715
But my theory provides evidence

53
00:11:12,882 --> 00:11:14,842
that Polynesia was settled
from the east.

54
00:11:15,009 --> 00:11:17,887
I've spent ten years writing
and researching my thesis.

55
00:11:18,054 --> 00:11:21,891
I lived on Fatu Hiva, professor.
I lived my theory.

56
00:11:22,058 --> 00:11:23,976
What number am I?

57
00:11:24,143 --> 00:11:26,479
How many publishers
have you seen before me?

58
00:11:27,021 --> 00:11:29,106
I know you've been
to Barbeau and Benedict.

59
00:11:29,273 --> 00:11:31,609
I presume Mead and Hill too.

60
00:11:31,776 --> 00:11:35,488
All scientists assume the world
is waiting to hear from them.

61
00:11:35,654 --> 00:11:38,783
The fact that I'm your last hope
ought to tell you something.

62
00:11:38,949 --> 00:11:42,870
Yes, that scientific publishing
is completely closed to new ideas.

63
00:11:43,037 --> 00:11:45,289
It tells me that when you
ignore evidence, nothing...

64
00:11:45,456 --> 00:11:47,208
Listen to me.

65
00:11:47,375 --> 00:11:50,586
You claim that the Peruvian
pre-Incan civilization

66
00:11:50,753 --> 00:11:52,588
was remarkable, I agree.

67
00:11:52,755 --> 00:11:54,256
And that the prevailing
winds and currents

68
00:11:54,423 --> 00:11:56,467
in the Pacific down there move
from east to west.

69
00:11:56,634 --> 00:12:00,471
But it is also the case that Tiki
could not have traveled to Polynesia

70
00:12:00,638 --> 00:12:03,933
- because his people had no boats!
- No.

71
00:12:04,850 --> 00:12:06,936
But they had rafts.

72
00:12:07,103 --> 00:12:08,896
They had balsa wood rafts.

73
00:12:09,063 --> 00:12:11,023
[chuckles]

74
00:12:11,190 --> 00:12:12,983
Rafts.

75
00:12:14,819 --> 00:12:16,737
Now that would be evidence.

76
00:12:16,904 --> 00:12:20,032
You want your theory to be accepted?
You want to be right?

77
00:12:20,199 --> 00:12:21,325
Then, go ahead.

78
00:12:21,492 --> 00:12:25,329
Drift from Peru to Polynesia
on a balsa wood raft.

79
00:12:26,831 --> 00:12:28,499
Good luck.

80
00:12:29,625 --> 00:12:31,127
[buzzer sounds]

81
00:12:31,293 --> 00:12:34,004
[woman speaking over intercom] Mr.
Brownberg's here to see you, professor.

82
00:12:36,590 --> 00:12:38,384
[Thor] Gentlemen.

83
00:12:38,551 --> 00:12:41,887
Your magazine will be with me on a raft

84
00:12:42,054 --> 00:12:46,392
at the mercy of the winds,
all the way to Polynesia.

85
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:51,147
It's further than
from Chicago to Moscow.

86
00:12:51,313 --> 00:12:57,027
Here to here, 5,000 miles.

87
00:12:59,447 --> 00:13:02,116
You'll have some sort of engine
in case of emergency?

88
00:13:02,283 --> 00:13:05,619
No, absolutely not.
We will surrender to the current

89
00:13:05,786 --> 00:13:08,581
and the Wind, like Tiki did.

90
00:13:08,747 --> 00:13:12,501
And by undertaking this extraordinary
voyage, you are proving...?

91
00:13:12,668 --> 00:13:16,630
That the oceans were not barriers,
but roads.

92
00:13:16,797 --> 00:13:19,842
Not impediments, but pathways.

93
00:13:20,009 --> 00:13:23,471
I will prove that South American people

94
00:13:23,637 --> 00:13:27,641
sailed to Polynesia 1,500 years ago.

95
00:13:27,808 --> 00:13:30,811
Every schoolboy knows that Polynesia
was peopled from Asia,

96
00:13:30,978 --> 00:13:31,979
not South America.

97
00:13:32,146 --> 00:13:35,774
And it's my job as a scientist
to prove the schoolboys,

98
00:13:35,941 --> 00:13:39,236
and those who quote them, wrong.

99
00:13:42,406 --> 00:13:44,825
Ancient man, being sun worshipers...

100
00:13:44,992 --> 00:13:46,452
[man] Mr. Heyerdahl.

101
00:13:46,619 --> 00:13:50,289
Doubtless, the story of Norwegians
drowning in the Pacific will sell

102
00:13:50,456 --> 00:13:52,917
a lot of magazines, but not this one.

103
00:13:53,083 --> 00:13:55,169
This is a scientific expedition...

104
00:13:55,336 --> 00:13:57,838
Our magazine has a higher purpose
than to finance

105
00:13:58,005 --> 00:14:00,174
and enable men bent on suicide.

106
00:14:01,008 --> 00:14:04,678
[man] I doubt you'll have any success
in recruiting anyone for such a voyage.

107
00:14:07,056 --> 00:14:10,059
- [creaking]
- [clock ticking]

108

[wind whistling]

109
00:14:22,029 --> 00:14:24,031
[soft groan]

110
00:15:41,483 --> 00:15:45,946
- [jazz plays]
- [Thor] A dozen logs or so.

111
00:15:46,113 --> 00:15:50,075
Big balsa wood logs.

112
00:15:50,242 --> 00:15:55,914
We're, uh, five crew.
All very capable, of course.

113
00:15:56,081 --> 00:15:58,959
The mast, the rudder...

114
00:16:02,838 --> 00:16:06,175
There you go.
The Kon-Tiki.

115
00:16:08,719 --> 00:16:13,891
I spent 22 days on a raft. Torpedoed.
North Atlantic, winter of '43.

116
00:16:14,725 --> 00:16:17,686
You can't sail it, steer it.

117
00:16:17,853 --> 00:16:20,064
All you can do is sit there
and wait to die.

118
00:16:20,230 --> 00:16:22,524
- No, no, no.
- These logs, they are gonna

119
00:16:22,691 --> 00:16:24,193
move against each other in the waves

120
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,820
and eventually they're gonna
break the lashings.

121
00:16:26,987 --> 00:16:29,948
And you'll each be sitting on a log
floating your separate ways

122
00:16:30,115 --> 00:16:32,409
at the mercy of the elements.

123
00:16:35,913 --> 00:16:37,623
Thank you for your time.

124
00:16:40,334 --> 00:16:43,462

[Thor]

126
00:17:49,111 --> 00:17:51,572
- Mr. Heyerdahl, may I help you?
- We have an appointment.

127
00:17:54,742 --> 00:17:57,077
Mr. Heyerdahl,
you are not on the list.

128
00:17:57,244 --> 00:17:59,788
Look under his name.
Watzinger. W.

[men chattering indistinctly]

130
00:18:10,424 --> 00:18:12,176
Just following my instincts...

131
00:18:13,635 --> 00:18:15,637
We damn near died
when the zipper froze.

132
00:18:15,804 --> 00:18:16,972
[laughter]

133
00:18:18,891 --> 00:18:21,226
Mr. Heyerdahl, you are
not allowed in here.

134
00:18:21,393 --> 00:18:24,104
Well! My friend from Fatu Hiva!

135
00:18:24,271 --> 00:18:27,149
You look like a man who just got
dumped by a glossy magazine!

136
00:18:27,316 --> 00:18:28,817
[laughter]

137
00:18:28,984 --> 00:18:32,196
[laughs] Thank you.

138
00:18:37,451 --> 00:18:40,120
Don't worry, Heyerdahl.

139
00:18:40,287 --> 00:18:42,539
Scientific committees, my ass.

140
00:18:43,832 --> 00:18:47,461
- Am I right, McGregor? Or am I right?
- Always. Of course.

141
00:18:47,628 --> 00:18:49,838
Frostbite, the winter of '24.

142
00:18:50,005 --> 00:18:54,384
It taught me one thing: do as the
natives do, down to the smallest detail.

143
00:18:54,551 --> 00:18:56,553
Don't use nails if they use rope,

144
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,139
don't use steel if they use bone.

145
00:18:59,306 --> 00:19:01,725
It took their ancestors
a thousand years to learn.

146
00:19:01,892 --> 00:19:05,521
Go with them, and you just
might hang on to your leg.

I'd like to change
my ticket to Oslo, please.

- Certainly, sir.
- I want two tickets to Lima, Peru.

- [Herman] What's the soonest?

- I know.

01:38:59,018 --> 01:39:01,687
Two hundred and fifty
yards to go.

383
01:39:03,731 --> 01:39:04,732
Ow!
