Regardless of how long ago marine animals were around, if they lived in the oceans, would their ghosts be likely to hang out on land? They knew very little of land, unless they beached themselves to die.

First, does 'sentience' need to be a factor in the ghost making process ? Exactly how does that work ? And as I stated , what of horses ? Are animals only able to become ghosts if they're in close proximity to humans at the exact time of death ? Does there need to be some sort of bond between a animal and a specific human? Exactly what ARE the rules for all that ?

Also, missing from that video clip, it's mentioned earlier that the entire desert region used to BE an ocean floor. Hell, marine fossils are found on the top of the Himalayas, as that entire mountain range used to be ocean floor, millions of years ago. As the Earth changed, we can't assume that it would affect the ghosts, can we ? They'd carry on as if they were still in the ocean, even though the seas have long since dried up or drained away. What would ghosts care , either way ?

I'm absolutely 100% certain there's stuff 'out there' we don't understand. We can't even unscramble the physics of photosynthesis or the entropy of life! I'd say on a fundamental level, we understand close to zero about our universe.

But in a macro, sensory-limited, brain-heuristics way, I personally haven't had any unexplainable events, nor, as far as I can tell, have the people I personally know irl.

I'm OK with people telling me online they've had them, like you. I just have no way of verifying it. So I'm not saying you're lying. I'm just saying I'm not putting it into my 'fact' bin, fwiw.

Precognition?
Seeing or hearing ghosts?
Seeing or hearing spirits?
Being aware of when their loved ones die?
Twin telepathy?
Out of Body Experience?
Able to see the 4th human color (a frequency of yellow similar to what bees see)?
Able to draw or describe what they intuit or hunch but cannot see?

But you have not experienced any of these?
Do you believe that those who do are merely hallucinating?

Did you ever have the dream that you're falling, and you reach out to try and catch yourself, and you jerk and it wakes you up? It turns out the brain simply misremembers the sequence of events. What happens is you jerk in your sleep as you transition back to a deeper sleep state, and your brain confabulates a 'reason' in a dream, which it then stores in memory as before-the-fact. So brains is tricky things.

Anyway - deja vu (before seen) is a very common experience, and it consists of a FEELING that you've experienced something earlier; I've never seen someone use information from that felt experience to know something not in current experience.

While I was a minor I often had Deja Vu. Some repeated enough times that I would try to count the repeated episodes. Several got to 5, so I figured the last time was real life, although all of the prior times had the same exact sensation, not like a dream. I have never heard any skeptic rationalization that fit my experiences.
One sequence that repeated the most (that I recall) occurred 14 times, or the real one was after 13 prior. When it occurred, it was a once in a lifetime event. Only one specific year could it have occurred, only one specific day of that one year could it have occurred. As I recall, the prior 13 times I was not aware of the time exclusivity of the sequence - I only experienced it and recall prior Deja Vus of it, but did not really understand what it was. Everybody was wearing the same clothes - and part of the clues required that I was concentrating on their clothes, the speaking was the same - these people spoke the same words in the same exchange of conversation each time - and sound effects were the same, rattling of china and silver in the exact same sequence each time.

Well ... you've lost me there. Deja vu is the feeling that something has happened before. "déjà vu: a feeling of having already experienced the present situation."

Are you saying that things actually repeated?

There's a similar but opposite experience called jamais vu (never seen) where something familiar looks completely strange. I've felt both of them at one time or another, but they were just feelings, unrelated to anything irl.

When it comes to hearing things that aren't there (especially voices or conversations, I'm presuming), some people have a lot more connections between their auditory processing centers and various parts of their brain. These non-schizophrenic people hear
