  • Ivan the Terrible, the first Tsar of Russia, was known for his cruelty and sadism, but legend suggests he possessed a secret library hidden beneath the Kremlin, containing priceless ancient literature.
    In the 20th century, an archaeologist embarked on a quest to prove the existence of Ivan's library, facing dangers from both Stalin's secret police and the treacherous tunnels beneath Moscow. Ivan's paranoia led him to kill anyone who knew of the library's location, and by the 20th century, most believed it to be merely a legend until Stetsy's determined pursuit.

    A typical Chronicle documentary where the end is a variation of ''we will keep looking'' and/or ''we will probably never know''.

      I'm guessing that was a translation issue that made more sense in the original Russian.
      I used to have a Francophone classmate who used the phrase "close the light" which was a literal translation from the French even if not the correct English.

    • @razor1uk610

      I suppose vegetarian times could be reference to one of the many famines, plagues, or a brief period of cannibalis.
      Perhaps it was a polite but poor mistranslation of a colloquial joke about shit...

    That library was gone along time ago. Prob not long after his reign in The Times of Troubles. Also, how many times has Moscow been burned basically to the ground? You’d have as much luck finding the Library of Alexandria as Ivan’s.
    Btw not sure why the Russian Imperial authorities wouldn’t let Stalinsky dig under the armory tower. Nicholas II was rarely in Moscow. St Petersburg had been the capital of Imperial Russia.

    Игнатий Яковлевич Стеллецкий (Ignatius Yakovlevich Stelletskii) in the 1910s and 1920s had a modern head torch and a modern powerful hand torch did he ? Ohhh ! and in places, bearing in mind the floodlights here and there, I don!t know why he bothered with the head and hand torch, the flood lights would have been better. Ivan, of course, had a glass sided lantern and was also aided, deep in tunnels, by electric back lighting. REMARKABLE !!!

    Wetterman 16:47 wasn’t actually Estonian, he was a Baltic German (so a German born in the Baltic states, in this case in Estonia, Tartu), those two are very different, Estonians at that time were nothing more than farmers and slaves :((

      From the German perspective at the time, the Finno-Ugric Estonians were mere serfs and slaves. It was only in the 19th century, when theories of national self-determination and one nation, one state, were propounded, that Estonians began to become independent.

    I didn't need the shock of suddenly being forced to see those ppl being shot the first time early on in this video - but the second time was like getting unexpectedly smacked in the head a second time. Such documentary footage is both unnecessary and highly off-putting. I will now think at least twice prior to viewing this channel's content - which is a real pity in that I've enjoyed some of your others in the past. I just do not need that kind of violence suddenly forced into my mind.
