Shane Warne says we evolved from aliens. Please give this guy his own tv show.

Professor Warne at your service.

Apparently spending so much time in the jungle has Warnie pondering life’s big questions.

On tonight’s episode of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here Australia, Warnie is set to reveal some… interesting theories about just how we came to be as a species.

“If we’ve evolved from monkeys, then why haven’t those ones evolved?” Warne asks fellow contestant Bonnie Lythgoe.

Warnie’s answer (to his own question)? “I’m saying: Aliens. We started from aliens.”

Clearly convinced by his theory, Warnie starts giving evidence. He’s thought about it a lot. you guys. “Look at those pyramids, Bonnie,” he says. “You couldn’t do ‘em. You couldn’t pull those huge bits of brick and make it perfectly symmetrical … couldn’t do it. So who did it?”

“Has to be from another world, has to be,” says Bonnie Lythgoe, evidently partially convinced by Warne’s extra-terrestrial theory.

“Whatever planet they’re on out there, they decided that they were gonna start some more life here on earth and study us,” he says.

Love TV? Need to hear more behind-the-scenes secret? Listen to The Binge with Rosie Waterland, here:

Lythgoe isn’t totally ready to discount centuries of Darwinism and scientific research JUST yet, stating, “Scientifically, we have so many similarities to monkeys, so I don’t know … yeah.”

But Warnie isn’t giving up on that theory either… not totally. He’s just got a slightly different perspective. “Maybe they turned a few monkeys into humans and said ‘Yeah, it works’.”

So it WAS monkeys. Just monkeys AND aliens.
