This was life changing for me.
I was enraged at first. Then I realized I was angry soley because how foolish I was and how easily I fell for it. I had no issue dismissing all the red flags because I wanted it to be true.
This film was one of the first to help me realize that I wasn't as smart as I thought I was and how able and willing I was to buy a lie.
Well done! I just watched this for the third time and only now read the comments to see, if this was factual. The making of this film must have cost a fortune. To deposit this art on the seabed, just to bring it back up again to be filmed. Mindboggling. Even when watching this the first time, I thought the art itself looked very modern in some cases. The faces especially. I've never seen an egyptian statue with closed eyes, for example. And there were two! And I wondered how those huge statues could survive standing upright on the seabed?! I guess my common sense and general knowledge knew from the beginning, that this isn't true. Shows how much I wanted it to be true and how much the narrative influenced my judgment. Do I still want to get the catalogue? Hell yeah!
You've got to give it to the actors, they did an amazing job. And the pieces really are beautiful.
Saw the exhibition in Venice. Beyond words. So amazingly created.
One of the best mockumentary stories ever. So much fantastic detail and all for fun. They did a great job telling this fairytale. 😊
Amazing fictional docu-drama, showcasing absolutely next-level castings and sculptural artwork!
My wife and I watched last night. Completely thought it was real until I saw something very unusual at the end; Walt Disney holding Micky's hand! I was like, "They didn't ware suits then, and that's fricken mickey mouse!" WELL DONE! Very impressed! Loved it!
Best ever documentary.Keeps dreams alive !! Amazing !
oh wow.the whole filming was just breath taking, Respect to all involved. and tons of appreciation.
Now THIS is art! I love it!
Superb. Truly art. We want to believe. Those of us who love archaeology are chomping at the bits when we see this. Fabulous 🙏👍🤛
Thank you so much 😀
I was one of the original consultants from 2010 that helped assist in this expedition. It was truly one of the highlights of my career.
What is with the comments about this being fake then?
Is this not a true documentary?
Also the statue of the man holding corn is confusing me. Corn was not introduced to Europe until the 1400s
its fake

When they find Bible in dirt in England on page abt the end … I did wonder
Not to mention the ending sequence with Mickey Mouse. But will done nevertheless.
I am watching this for the third time and finding it just as wonderful as the first viewing. the actors were wonderful and the film itself beautifully done, seeing Damien Hurst's name one should always expect the unexpected. superb, funny and my admiration for the work and imagination that went into getting this to the screen. Thankyou .
Check out some of our other films on the channel.
Great story! I love a good piece of fiction based on myth and to top it off the sculptures are magnificent!
Hook, line and sinker.
I enjoyed every minute of this perfectly cultivated journey to the hearts of all of us childhood treasure hunter dreamers out there.
Not gonna lie, I was ready to buy a plane ticket until I died of hysterical laughter with the glimpse of Mickeys ears.
I really enjoyed the ride.
Thank you Damien!
Around 10 minutes in I started to get suspicious of their lack of real excitement after a discovery.
Brilliat Work, I loved every minute of it. Thank you & well done.
I've been had but it was with pleasure :) As a former diver I can only imagine what it would feel to discover such treasures, I can only imagine. Thanks
Cannot believe this was all fiction, who goes to the effort to do this.
Monkey eating corn on the cob should be a big giveaway. Lol.
That was amazing! Beautifully filmed, perfectly told story! I loved it. I've been turning my friends onto it.
Like a good book of fiction, it entertains and fires the imagination for a few hours. The Medusa head and the sun disc made me want to own these masterpieces.
Well done Mr Hurst, the best art provokes and inspires.
this guy just showed us how easy we can get tricked, wow!
P.T. Barnum is alive and well. Good on the producers for their commitment to the fun in being willfully fooled.
This is the greatest art instalation+exhibition ever... Seriously the scope... the adventure... The history made up or not... Absolutely brilliant... The documentary is the exhibition!
Thank you very much ! This is art ! Storytelling! Videography top tier ! I’m a underwater explorer and a filmmaker, but This is completely different level ! You made me love your movie!! The amount of your soul you guys put in it … thank you again !
Wonderful. Belief is everything.
This one literally gave me cold chills, Just watching the whole process and what came up.
Ça faisait longtemps que je n’avais pas été cueilli par tant de beautés et de finesses montrés dans un doc découvertes !
Absolutely Brilliant, brilliant piece of introspective mind art. The pieces are mesmerizing. Bravo.
This is the most breathtakingly beautiful collection I've ever seen!
I've seen it in Venice, it took years to convince my brain/soul that it was all artificial. The fact that it was all constructed by a modern man just wasn't somehow getting through 😅
Venice has never been the same after this exhibition, I still expect to see the treasures there.
The most amazing art treasure iv ever seen and probably ever will see. The video was put together so well how it builds the curiosity and explodes into the greatest treasure ever found. Thank you so very much for sharing your work.
so glad you re-uploaded amazing
The artist did such a good job my favs are the ones with the beautiful coral work on them. Glad I read the comments so I could enjoy the artistry and the different mediums he used some almost look alive.
Watched twice. Loved the whole thing and enjoying the comments that offer so many different perspectives. Wished i could have some in my collection
This is what I imagine artifacts from Atlantis would have looked liked being found
Magnificent, great ride . 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
I gotta admit I bought this hook, line and sinker right up until the end. There were plenty of warnings which I ignored. Being a diver I was curious how they preserved so much of the colors of the coral, urchins and worm casings. When they were carrying the large gold works of art I thought wow they must be really strong to carry that much gold so easily, but still ignored my sense of reality. The statue of the bear with the screaming man with outstretched arms standing on its head was insane and seemed too modern to me. The monkey with the corn cob was odd as was the gold transformer statue. When I glimpsed the "Made in China" stamp my mind was screaming WTF?? The statue of Mickey still in the water at the end looked so out of place I thought I was just interpreting an old work of art through simple eyes. It wasn't until I went to the comments did I realize it was really just another Hollywood movie making it truly Treasures of the Unbelievable.
This is a demonstration of how a fictitious history is created and reinforced with layer upon layer. Who or what would want to go to this much trouble to hide the truth?
the actors kind of gave it away from the start…
You have to listen to the opening of the movie as he's talking he's telling you it's fake but it's what you believe to be real through the movie. This is what's called a psychological vivid imagination implant movie..😂😂 basically what this is is it put together from the psychological perspective and there's holes and gaps left. There are Easter eggs and teasers to have you believing that something is real but those Easter eggs are there to show you that that is not a real thing but an object skated view because you have new age visuals mixedwood supposed old age ancient archaeological history😅😅😅 so they basically put the real in front of you but at the same time I giving you the substructure to allow your imagination to take the movie wherever you want to take it😅😅😅 it's actually a CIA kind of operation that they do with all of us here in America they're basically putting in a movie form and showing you how f*****-up things really are it's meant for you to wake up it's trying to get you to see how intelligent you are
i was going to say
The most Damien Hirst thing ever.
Having a background in the field i have to give the entire cast and crew some major cudos! I just hope that there's nobody getting their gear together to find anything left behind 😂👍.
Fabulous...Unbelievable!!! This is wonderful documentary 👏 Must see!!! A work of art...fiction?
Brilliant video lovely art of statues
Sad thing that they presented this as a real expedition.
Astounding! Keep it up guys!
Wow….. Amazing twist….. still would love to experience these works of wonder! 💚💚💚
😮 This is a phenomenal find for sure!!! Congratulations!!! I too was always fascinated by the ancient myths. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I bow to your professionalism. Glad you found the Gold.
Amazing story telling of an epic find, what a scene to behold
A seriously beautiful and well put together piece. Thank you for sharing the artworks, absolutely breathtaking. Fascinating 👌💜
some great works of artistry on large scale
This is absolutely epicly done and jawdroppingingly amazing I’ve had to watch it 3 times so far
This was fun to watch and the art is stunning.
OMG...this isn't...factual ? I was TOTALLY absorbed...thinking it was real... You guys are SO good at this ! I was sold!!!
Whah?!? Im lost. This show is awesome. If its all fake, im much happier believing it was real. It it all real in my imagination.
The Best Thing I've Seen On The Internet or TV in Like Two Years~!!!
holding up gold statues like they're made of air is sort of a give away
Damien Hirst is a British artist known for his controversial and provocative works, often exploring themes of life, death, and the fragility of existence. Born in Bristol, England, in 1965, Hirst rose to prominence in the art world during the 1990s as part of the Young British Artists (YBAs) movement.
Hirst gained significant attention for his installation art, sculptures, and conceptual pieces. One of his most well-known works is "The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living," which features a preserved shark suspended in formaldehyde. This piece, along with others in his "Natural History" series, challenged traditional notions of art and provoked discussions about mortality and the human condition.
Wow! What a show! Thank you for bringing all that to the open again.
i'm so glad you have re-uploaded this, i watched it the first time it was out and was taken in untill the mickey mouse statue. i just wonder how many of the people involved were in "the know" After rewatching this i still think those statues looked their best in the watery setting .
Truly amazing, extremely inspiring ! Thank you.
Thank your for showing this wonderful movie.... What an adventure...
*this was absolutely amazing videos to watch*
Fantastic! Absolutely Fantastic! I would love to see it in person!
Incredible!!! Great documentary!
lost for words. truly unbelievable best watch iv seen in years
Good addition to TH-cam, because there are so many docs here, but this one gets you thinking about docs in general. Yeah, I have to admit the mouse object was where I really connected the dots. I'd be curious to know where an expert would start? Right away? Styles were the first thing I noticed, then scales and detailing under the coral.
When they lifted the sun disk I was in absolute awe
I love the way they allow what the sea possessed to remain possessions of the sea beautiful just beautiful
Amazing! I totally enjoyed this video!
Wowww Amazing .. thank you so much 🙏❤
Amazing lost Arts , Old God's old beliefs of tales monsters and combat ... of the beauty ... The quality of sculpture with eyes added , what beautiful haunting work.
Even in our Digital Age , I do not think men can create the work of these lost Artisans. Truly amazing astonishing , in the scale. Good they went into the deeper place , and searched. Amazing , simply amazing. That year I had just had my Cancer surgery revisions ...and I was on Chemo still .... Life is amazing.
❤Beautiful!
That Medusa head. To die for
Brilliantly done.
brilliant
I want... must see this in person .. simply amazing!
That was incredible! Good work!
As awesome a find this is, it seems more like someone dumped their fortune more recently than ago. Beautiful pieces. Thank you for sharing!
My good friend has the gallery book from this show. It's truly amazing work. The detailed craftsmanship in all the coral and worm-damage is really beautifully done.
Sorry they didn't note that this is all "fake" in the channel notes. This is the video that would play in the gallery where the show was being held and it is a work of fiction and artistry as much as anything else in the show. I can understand how some people would feel cheated or misled if they don't know the context of the video. To be fair, my friend did show me the gallery book as a bit of a joke to see how long it would take before I figured out that it was an exhibit of modern art.
Amazing!!!
I would have thought this was real when it was on Netflix but Mickey Mouse gave it away at the end
SUPERB! Loved it
Thank you for this story. I found it just as fascinating as you did working the site and taking care of the objects. Absolutely great presentation...
Stunning
totally fascinating!
Magnificent! Unbelievably beautiful
this was absolutely amazing to watch with an absolute amazing payoff at the end. amazing
this is absolutely incredible
Excellent documentary!
Very touching documentary. Thank you. Just wonder if they explained he treasures to the locals as they felt their life was threatened.
The craftsmanship is extraordinary
Truly remarkable find,it's beautiful*Hope nobody lost their live
GOD is an artist. One of the most incredible things I've ever seen. Very well made. And the collaboration that the living organisms known are coral formed to create one of a kind artifacts. A true work of art.
Most amazing show.
