Secret tunnel behind a waterfall? Was fully expecting a treasure chest or a dragon.
Or Balrog.
I was expecting a drauger and a rune carved wall.
I am pretty sure the name of the guy in front of the camera is Tintin
@@crimzenwoffinden9973 hahaha skyrim
@@crimzenwoffinden9973 Things get real when you see a carved wall.
I appreciate how you explain things so people who don't know anything about mining understand...like me. 👍
I agree. Much better than - Duuude!
That looks exactly like the cave entrance in Skyrim
Haha it sure does, awesome game also
Which one lol
@@chroniccrypto5621 oh man it’s been years. The one the main questline sends you to, it’s in a crypt. Totally forget the name of the place.
Ti Ko Bleakfalls Barrow?
Maybe thats what the people that built this mideval mine based it off
Dude says “oh look it’s collapsed here”. I’d be like “well… perhaps we should get TF out of here then?”
So interesting I’m glad you guys had fun exploring and could show it to us. I am personally too terrified to go into such narrow spaces so I’m thankful that you filmed and shared.
That entrance to the roman mine is amazing 👍 like a place in middle earth 🙏👍
Everybody gangsta until the dwarves start to singing
Everybody gangsta until you wake up the Balrog.

Far over the Mistyyy mountains cold
Medieval mines now that’s cool. My great great grandfather James Douglas founded a ton of copper mines in Arizona in the 1870s. I’ve seen some explorations of those, but this is really cool! Thanks for the video!
I crawled through a lava tube near bend oregon usa, and farted at the very end, we were all on our hands and knees at this point in the tube. Ppl were crawling out as fast as they could. I had diarrhea coming so it stunk bad. It may still stink today and that was 35 years ago lol
Was it Lava River Cave?
@@cltracy2921 im not sure. It was 3 decades ago
I've been there as well about 10 years ago. We wondered what died down in the end of the tube...
@@nikolaisikes6245 lol
@@nikolaisikes6245 it was back in 2002 for me, and it still stank then.
Wow, dramatic place, never seen one that close to a waterfall, very old coffin level.
Simply amazing! I can't imagine exploring a mine that old.
I'm glad yall have this and their being no graffiti.
Believe it or not, some people respect their history.
Propably further away from any bigger centers
Isn’t it funny it’s always the illiterate that love to write.
Thats just daft. Graffiti is history too. Check out churches. Craftsmen would leave their marks so future generations could see that it was them. The word Graffiti has bad connotations.
@@stewartwyeth1302 we are talking about the vandalism kind of graffiti here. At least I was but people have different perspectives to the conversation.
Love watching mine explores, and now I find a channel of people exploring in mid wales. Amazing I live in mid wales 🏴
Can Yu imagine yourself chipping away in their, for days and days?!
Have to get the ore somehow!
i guess, if i was born into it during those times 😂
Everybody gangsta until you wake up the Balrog.
I am sitting in my home in NW Montana usa... droolilng over the history you guys get to see! Thanks for recording for us! Some of us are a bit... stuck in hell...
More to come!
Why are you stuck in hell?
@@slimjim4981 The person in charge of my countys health is antivax/antimask and thinks covid is fake, my state currently tops the us boards for infection per 100k people, currently 1 in 26 have covid, the new leader of the state is anti mask and thnks covid is fake, 1.2million people in the state with 50k infected... soo...hell... filled with low iq morons.

Thanks for posting this. Was fun and interesting to watch. 😀
Easily the most incredible mine video. 1500 years old? No explosives? Utterly amazing
Greetings from a California mine explorer 🇺🇸👍🏻
White figure all the way in the back at 2:49 spotted
Very interesting. I remember finding similiar tunnels in Germany as a boy. Interesting that this tunnel came to a dead end. Wonder what its purpose was other than for hiding.
I get it now! Dummkopf i am. They were harvesting something in these tunnels like building Stone.

haha, he's in a rural area and he's blown away that there are "trees and whatnot".
That old mine looked more solid then a lot of mines in california I guess the explosives must fracture the rock and lead to feature caveins beautiful in it own way great job!
I know I’ve seen videos of people going in these abandoned mines and I am shitting like WHY would you do that this looks safe by comparison
Great history 👏 love it ... picture the miners and the lifes struggles back then
I saw gold price there in video
Hi bro kese ho. Apka channel me new video aya nahi kya baat he?
How awesome ! They just discovered the sewage !
Great findings of very old workings going to modern ones all must hidden by the water fall.
Thank you for sharing that with us. It is very amazing.
Went in here last weekend :D, second time going in, unbelievable piece of history!
Throughly enjoyed your video. Thank you for the adventure.
That was incredible!! Thank you for sharing !
All done by candlelight, amazing determination.
It would make for Great Theatrics, back in Ancient times, to appear from behind a waterfall, or disappear behind a waterfall, one would think you had God like Powers, if you did that
Enid Blyton uses entrances hidden behind waterfalls as a device in one or two of her books.
devious bordering sinster 😚
I cannot imagine how hard it was to carve those mines
Imagine how hard it was to build the pyramids or the walls at Machu Picchu
@@jimritzheimer7465 Thanks...my mind just exploded.
@@jimritzheimer7465 I really want to believe they fingered out how to manipulate and control rocks with sounds frequency techniques. In Egypt, I am glad to see that the builders (at least some) were not slaves. They had a nice village and seem to have had provided comfortable lives for the families of builders (even if builders' bodies were destroyed by working with the huge rocks). There was a high price but it seems worth it to them.
@@kristinessTX it's amazing. I cannot fathom how ancient people were able to build these structures that still stand today. What amazes me the most is that with all of our modern technology we still cannot duplicate what they did thousands if not tens of thousands of years ago.
It's amazing actually being in them especially the very old mines, totally mind blowing. Al
It’s beautiful there! Magical
Totally amazing. Thanks for all your work to bring this to everyone around the world.
Thanks for watching!
Keep off the moors! Stay on the road!
I can’t wait for the day someone comes across the lizard people
Depending on when that was made, it may have actually been roomy because the people from the Middle Ages were a lot smaller due to lack of nutrition. From the dawn of agriculture, humans shrunk down because they lived predominantly on grains, which are less nutrient dense, so their bodies compensated by getting smaller. A normal size man would only be about 5’2” and in some regions they were even smaller, not even reaching 5’.
Hunter/Gatherers were much larger, about as large as modern humans because of their nutrient dense diet. People that consumed more dairy were the largest and their genes are still passed to their descendants, which is why Swedes are some of the largest people on earth as are certain African tribes, like the Maasai. Men of the Maasai can be over 7’ tall today because they still practice heavy dairy consumption, drinking the milk from many different animals.
that’s so interesting, i had no idea
So if I want to be big and strong I should drink a lot of milk or is it too late?
@@r3conwoo it could probably help a little, because milk does have growth hormones for the calf to grow big and strong, but to achieve the size of the Swedes or the Maasai it would take generations of milk drinking, unfortunately.
The Maasai tribe average height for men is about 6’3”. That’s a very tall average, since many Maasai men are over 7’ tall. Funny thing about the Maasai is that they eat mostly meat and drink milk from many animals, but studies have shown that they have one of the lowest incidents of heart disease or atherosclerosis. This is because all of their livestock are raised on grass, not grains, which shift their fat ratio to have a much higher omega 3 fatty acid levels, comparable to cold water fish.
That’s because grass is the natural diet of ruminant animals (multiple stomachs). Grains have no omega 3 fatty acids, so it causes the animal to only produce omega 6 fatty acids (the only fat plants produce). Omega 6 fatty acids are inflammatory to mammals, being a free radical. We are designed to handle a certain level of n6 fatty acids, but we prefer omega 3 because they’re anti-inflammatory.
This is why my wife and I raise our own cattle and they are only grass finished, no grain. Yes, their meat has less fat in it, but the fat in it is far healthier. The butchers we use have told me that they can smell the difference between a grass finished meat from a grain finished one. You can smell a clear difference and the color is much different. Hamburger, roasts and steaks from those cattle has more of a burgundy color, leaning a bit more purple.
Grain finished meat has little color at all which is why the butchers dip cuts of meat into buckets of blood before packing and even use food coloring to get that bright red color.
Even worse are fish that are farm raised. Salmon, tilapia and catfish are basically grey as are shell fish, like lobsters, crabs and shrimp. The trick is to add colors and chemicals into their food to change their meat that color.
If you were to hold a real salmon steak, caught from a cold water stream next to a farm raised steak, the colors wouldn’t match at all. That salmon coloring is too orange compared to the real thing.
It’s difficult to get real food these days. Everything is farm raised, which means corn fed, including the fish. Fish are not naturally corn eaters?
Without processing the grains, fish wouldn’t even be able to digest corn. The same is true with livestock. Cattle and sheep are grass digesters, not designed for grains that make them sick (acidosis) and they need antibiotics. It crazy. No wonder we’re all sick?
Bullocks. The height of the Maasai people is primarily due to the climate in which they live. How does your theory account for most hunter gather peoples of today being diminutive in stature? Take the Pigmy people as a perfect example. Reality is closer to the exact opposite of what you claim.
@@rebecaprieto3406 That's because it's not true.
Hello nice to see the real old history of the early Roman time and by the water fall it did not look like a lot of waste at least now showing great video Cjd wash state 👍
This place is wonderful!
There’s a certain smell to these mines I love !
Amazing what a mine. I watch Abandoned and Forgotten Places that shows American mines. Really getting very interested in these old mines. Great job and fascinating exploration. Will be watching more.
I Knw me too. The ones in America.
What an amazing place to visit. Thanks for sharing 👍
Wow! I am Horribly Claustrophobic! I'm 6' tall 250lbs. and watching you go in those tight passages, then crouching to get through some, then you said you're 5'6" tall, I immediately felt convulsions from Claustrophobic Freakout. Some people fear dying in fire, others fear drowning, my greatest fear would be to get stuck in one of those and not be able to move and eventually die there, eeeeesh!!!!
It does get a bit tight sometimes, my fear is heights 😁
So beautiful hidden waterfalls
Imagine all the eye injuries people got before safety glasses.
No doubt. You had to rely on your "safety squints" entirely.
Back in those days, eye injuries were the least of their concerns.
@@jl_woodworks no, they would still be a very big concern you cant do much if you are blind
Back then your eyelids where your safety glasses
I tried to go into an old tin mine in Cornwall, but it was a solid wall of flies!
Good to know about places like this when our Sun goes into micro nova!
Absolutely loving these videos. The simple explanations are so helpful and your knowledge is vast. You don't seem to assume that everyone that's keenly interested know all the terms etc. Thanks!
Wow. That was really interesting! (Just been reading merlin in the crystal cave 😆)
‘Oresome’ very enjoyable.
Fascinating! Many thanks. I particularly like the history that goes with it. Well done!
You guys are something else, bravo for your bravery.
We found a adit behind a waterfall last year looking for other workings, loved it!
Incredible find and exploring. Thanks again for sharing your work. Kind regards, Paul in Lower Boddington
Another great video and mine. Like the explanation of what they mined. And the next one please!
Glück Auf aus dem schönen Oberharz. ⚒
People were smaller back then and most likely easily fit in there...and yes baskets were used to haul ore, sometimes in a chain handing it from person to person.
What the rails remind me of is the "pit ponies" used to haul ore....they had a short and rough life and often abused.
Awesome footage. Very interesting. This my first time learning you have mines dating back to Roman times. Wow I would love to see one. I'm in Australia and earliest mine I've explored is 1850's
Fantastic guys, definitely a bit middle earth 😂. Thanks for your time and effort, keep up the good work.
Glad you enjoyed it
If it was hidden in a waterfall, that’s a good case we’re living in a simulation. All games hide cool stuff in waterfalls. Just saying’.
😅🤣
I think you might be on to something here man😂👏
This is the best comment on the internet.
That’s just in our simulations, the ones we have created. The one we live in has no secret entrances behind caves coded into it. Trust me, I know.
Wow very cool amazing what people were up to
1000 years time there will be a ancient torch with AA batterys in there 🤣
And the Energizer Bunny.
That was Really Cool, Thanks For Sharing 💙
Very cool! Thanks for sharing.
This is truly an epic video. Well done.
I'm 6'-1" I definitely would be very uncomfortable walking in that adit. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
I love old mines. So cool!
Nice 👍 video thanks 🙏 for sharing my friend stay safe stay connecte good luck 🍀👍
so interesting.. i can see how someone could feel clostrophobic in a tunnel like that.. but also feel ok as you know someone has been there before
Excellent... an intelligent crew. Thanks guys.
Enjoyed watching you both but you wouldn't catch me going far inside of that tunnel . My self preservation instincts would kick in warning me not to be silly !! 😁
This is so awesome! And you're so knowledgeable! Thank you for sharing
I explore mines over here in the U.S., so we don't have the age of the mines you've got. This mine was really cool! Thanks for sharing your adventures!
Beautifully hewn out there al thanks for showing ,them Romans must of been Mavericks as Romans built straight roads them tunnels were all over lol
You're not likely to be ambushed in a mine.
That is amazingly beautiful 😍 the entrance is awsome
Thanks for another entertaining video. What an amazing coffin level!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow! Amazing place! 😍👍
Amazing find! Ill need to be a guest one day
Big movie! Very interesting! Best regards from Guarapari Brazil!
That is awesome omg hoping your fined Alot of things.
Some awsome finds in the second part
This was awesome gents. Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Crazy cool caves!
Truly interesting human endeavor, the ore must have been quite valuable.
Excellent boys I would love to treck along with you but I'm a bit far here in California. Great vid.
nice one guys, also nice to see you got the lighting sorted Al. 1566 views and only 150 likes and 1 dislike its weird world.
Wow 😍 Love from India ❤️
Im so glad i found your channel. Just brilliant so interesting , informative & the mines are just stunning. Great documentary. ❤😊
wow, amazing mine, probably the oldest in tact coffin mine I've seen. Thanks for sharing guys :o)
One of these days you're going to find a hoard down one of these, I can feel it in my bones :o)
Fingers crossed!
@@LostMines Better to find a hoard than a horde.
Haha yes absolutely
This is a Kool discovery.
Had they come across a cave troll, that would've been interesting 🤔
Great video. Reminds me of The Wookey Hole caves in Cheddar, Somerset which I visited a few times while living in Bristol.
Brilliant Video All The Best Of Health To You All.
Thats fuquin cool !!!
Very brave lads
Love the history of these places great channel guys
A good geometry to dig while preventing collapse without adding wooden support
Awesome video and channel. Enjoyed watching your exploration trip. Entering the portal of history engraved in the rocks brings always surprises. Cheers.
Awesome thank you!
Very cool.
