Humans are not very good at seeing patterns when they have preconceptions. Norse mythology talked about a land full of woodland elves who had very long life spans, that could only be reached after a journey of many months through the land of the frost giants and across a rainbow shaped bridge. Odin and Loki are said to have made this trip. The real life explanation is probably that 2 Norseman crossed Siberia and crossed the Bering Strait to visit B.C. The way we imagine it? An interdimensional gate leads to a spiritual realm in the sky called Asgard filled with gods (whatever the hell that means) who are immortal.
