Graham Hancock claims that an ancient super-civilisation in Antarctica was destroyed by a collision with a comet 12,000 years ago .

If true, Mr Hancock's theory would overturn almost everything we know about the story of human civilisation.

Many experts are concerned that the story is misleading, with some dismissing it as 'pseudoscientific'.

Ancient Apocolypse is a documentary about Graham Hancock's theories.

In the show, Hancock argues that an ancient lost race is responsible for spreading civilisation.

This implies indigenous people could not have created civilisation without outside help.

Some experts have called for Netflix to strip the show of its 'docuseries' label.
