- Since Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, burying the city of Pompeii, it has been frozen in time. But now, more secrets behind the ancient Roman city are being revealed with the help of new technologies in Science Channel’s Lost World Of Pompeii Pompeii is a delicately conserved attraction that is under constant threat from the wears and tear of extensive tourism, the specter of landslides and the possibility of another devastating eruption from Mount Vesuvius.

I find it funny, remember when we slept in elementary school while watching these types of movies on the projector and found it boring....now your 25.......in your bed...at 9 pm....on your day off...to watch this
Personally I've always paid attention to these types of documentaries in school because they always fascinated me
TRUEE I watched this when I was in year 5 grade 4
I was the "loser" who always loved documentary days in school haha. I still much prefer documentaries over most other TV and movie genres.
@@Eontologist Same for me.
The ones we watched were monotone and without music or much inflection on crappy tiny TVs with awful mono channel speakers. That alone droned me to slumber
“The floor is lava”
-Everyone Pompeii, 79A.D.
Ur going the jailllll
😬😂
* the sky is lava
hate to be the "well actually" girl but it's likely lava only bubbled at the very edge of the main crater. the people were mostly killed by falling rocks and boiling poisonous clouds of noxious gas.
@@FloraAnneFauna it’s clearly a joke so you should of just shut up
Imagine you're just chilling and you look out of your window and the mountain you've been looking at your entire life just f*cking explodes outta nowhere.
so true-
Happens all the time in Civ 6
I’m always amazed at how they can figure out so much stuff just by studying ruins
All they know, for sure, is there was an Eruption and the Locals were not very good Swimmers. To be fair; Wine is not going to drink itself.
Yeah, it's pretty cool
Imagine being an archaeologist and spending decades to unearth the town, then witnessing the volcano bury it all once again.
Maybe there is something there that is not supposed to be discovered.
I do believe they would do more than witness they would be able to live out the nightmare they did
@@CharleneEmerymyers-OwenFAM 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
😳‼
While being there and realizing you'll be part of the site too
Next development?
A _virtual_ walk through of Pompeii, so that tourism can continue, from anywhere in the world, but, doesn't destroy what remains of the city.
That would be awesome! Especially if it was done in a video game format instead of a Google Street view.
Or a massive room that had an immersive view, so it was like walking through Pompeii.
I was in Pompeii with Trafalgar tour and walked through and saw the great devastation..
@@rachelguderjahn2231 there’s videos like that on yt
The volcano will bury it again at some point.
Imagine sitting on the toilet, trying to have a poo, then a volcano for no reason erupts
Ok ok not gonna lie this made my day like really 😂
Thinking of that exactly the moment I read your comment lol
In the right place at the right time 😂
@@melodyclark4347 Yas 😂
I think of it any minute
@d R take a joke, neg nanny
It’s an extraordinary place to visit. We climbed Vesuvius and looked down into the crater. You never forget visiting places like this. Herculaneum is also really worth visiting.
Fun fact.
It is because of Pompeii we have an idea what a Roman Soldier truly looked like.
Most of the time Romans cremated their dead.
One Roman soldier was found nearly perfectly preserved with the remains of his uniform, gear, and coin purse.
The dead of Pompeii are like time travelers.
But they can't talk.....but with technology we can help them whisper a little.
Id argue that we do not need a frozen in time Roman soldier to know what they would have looked like. We know their gear and equipment, we know what people look like.
They didin't have uniforms
Fabio Ferrarese of course they did idiot
Brilliantly put
Did anyone notice the noise on that imagery? He looked what we call Biracial today (African & European). I lived in Italy for 16 yrs and Italians from my point of view is a mix race population. They have all kinds of DNA running through their blood.
Is it only me that I'm really impressed by the technology of being able to unroll those scrolls but not only that but still read what it said thats astonishing
thats what i keep saying
Absolutely
This is not a magical place. It is a punishment for their sins.
They became utterly disobedient, and God destroyed them.
So that the next generation or the people who come can know about the cause of it.
@@Kingzia24 a volcano is definitely not god Xd
@@Kingzia24 what are you smoking?
I’m extremely proud to claim I’m from these lands, from Naples specifically. Here in Campania we have some signature landmarks that just cannot be ignored: Herculaneum (Ercolano), Pompeii, Oplontis, Stabiae (Stabia), Sorrento and Amalfi Coasts, Capri, Ischia, Procida and of course Naples being probably the jewel of the crown. The Vesuvius is fascinating and, together with pizza, is one of the key and distinguishing elements of Naples in the world. I’m happy to realize tourists are enthusiastic about all of this and I hope they enjoy their stay. If you truly love Italy, you can’t miss these places and the south in general like Apulia, Sicily, Calabria and Basilicata. To be fair though, there’s not a single region in Italy that isn’t full of attractions and landmarks and that doesn’t deserve to be visited. 🇮🇹
Great documentary, well done.
I look forward to exploring exploring all of Italy 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Was there any survival of Pompeii
It's amazing how these buildings and people were preserved to this day. When we visit Pompeii or look at the people who perished, it is like peeking 2000 years into the past and seeing things exactly how they were, 2000 years before you got there. From mosaics and buildings to people frozen in time, it's really cool how we can see how life was like 2000 years ago.
The way we're constantly asked, "what were their last moments like?" it seems so Disney-ish, so dumbed-down. We can imagine that their last moments were filled with fear, anguish, terror for their loved ones. No mystery about that!
Agreed..what a dumb archeology.haha
They are trying to know if they actually died instantly or they suffered
@@apdroidgeek1737 They suffered. Of course they did. Sorry. But that's what it was.
hey atleast we all love one of disney movies. haha
Well... it’s mostly a rhetorical question.
Imagine people thousands of years from now trying to figure out how we lived....
Prophet Jesus is coming.
We have TH-cam now😁
@MrWorlide Very incorrect.
@Tooth less Photos?! Don’t forget about the vast documentation, numerous videos, records etc. It would be a lot easier a lot!
im sure they will look with pity at our era
The technology being used in archeology is amazing!
Not really... it tends to be highly inaccurate and they can only do what they already know with any level of accuracy... much like carbon dating which has been known to be off by atleast tens of thousands of years on objects that the age was already known so could be off millions if not tens of millions on objects not known... is why I don’t trust carbon dating or any process created by man because they will just explain away the flaws in their theories without ever actually addressing the flaws kinda like how they like to try to claim that man and dinosaurs didn’t exist at the same time and then try to use their man made severely flawed carbon dating system to try to prove it completely ignoring the countless cave drawing and parchment documentations showing man living beside “great beasts” and a lot of them pretty much detailing now known dinosaurs in great detail
We had a chapter in English about mount vesuvius and Pompeii. Ever since then, I have been fascinated by the unexpected and mysterious city. Once under just ashes. It was so interesting as I learnt about it, I would imagine a day where I would be like that too. As a fourth grader, I was even afraid that one day, I too, would be forgotten along with everyone who knew me and loved me.
I visited Pompeii almost 2 years ago and I can still feeling the touch of the past and the sadness. You can feel it in every step that you take in this magical place.
you can only feel it if you're an empath and you actually care.
sadly some people just go there to judge..
@@denzillechloiesabas2695 I fell badly on the cobbles and ended up in an Italian hospital overnight with a fractured ankle. Unfortunately that overrides all other memories of i! Sad, but human.
@@moonlitdesert What does that have to do with the the comment she answered? She was speaking/Typing about the feelings of empathic nature. You writing about your ankle.smh flipping yte tears. Cant escape them.
@@denzillechloiesabas2695 well you can be an empath but have fear rather than empathy seeing this when you have a more than just science surface knowledge about Pompeii .
@@denzillechloiesabas2695 there's no such thing as an "empath". All of us have some amount of empathy. Some nurture it; others ignore.
1:58 "Few realize that for many of them they have just one day left to live"...
I'm guessing that none of them realized that.
I thought the same thing. Lost a little credibility there. Overall though a pretty good documentary.
id say your hypothesis is pretty accurate
Nah a lot of people fled the city before the eruption
I noticed this too, it implies that some of them knew. but it's probably just hyperbole typical of these documentaries.
“Few” is different than “a few”
Few means non, while a few means some
I'm impressed of how far already the achievements of human beings now! Amazing people, amazing technology, and amazing history.
I was in Pompeii in 2015, it’s crazy how well preserved some of the stuff is.
Well, not that crazy. What destroyed it is also what preserved it.
*they ignored the earthquakes the years months and days prior. This shows how important knowledge is to prevent disasters*
People back then thought that the earthquakes was the god of volcanoes forging something and they thought it was good omen
@@trixanity203 I rather doubt they thought it a good omen, considering. Maybe you ought to bone up on Roman mythology some.
Steven Schnepp He’s right they though it was a good omen because during the eruption it was actually a festival going on honoring the god of fire or volcanos....
@@mstee4972 Doubtful, considering the earthquakes, sulfur, and other preliminaries to the eruption that got most of the city's population to flee before the eruption.
They didn't ignore the earthquakes and rumbling... They celebrated it because they thought the gods were being noisily happy.
If you are fascinated by time travel, go to Pompeii and Herculaneum. That is the closest thing to traveling back in time to the Rome era you will ever experience. I was there two times. It is... eerie to enter a house, now deserted, and walk the rooms, one by one. There is of course no feeling of a 'presence' but I felt like a trespasser walking around in those houses... without the owner's permission. If you visit it, make sure you carry 2 liters of drinking water. It took me 4 to 5 hours to walk and visit one third of Pompeii

I've been there too. its kind of when you are there, you are one of them. you can feel the people presence!
You did the time travel or you are suggesting
Himani Dubey no one can do time travel. It’s mean when you go to that kind of place and you feel that you are there when the city are still exist that the time travel.
Vladimir Putin until this time, we’re in computer age and space age no one can built the time machine that can travel to the future or back. The only thing that can bring us back to yesterday is our memories, and the only thing that can take us to the future is our imagination. Thank you Sir!
My husband, daughter and my parents came to our house in Germany in 1988. We took an 8 day guided bus tour to Italy.
Pompei was so much rubble and large gravel type stones. I ripped out of my shoes and had to buy new shoes.
I’ve seen recent video of Pompei in 2018 on TV. It was much neater and the roads were no longer rubble like when we were there! It now looks like they picked up large amounts of rubble and rebuilt
walls and even buildings that were not there in 1988!!
Where's the proof?
They were there just under the rubble. Covid allowed for archaeologists to excavate more of the city. New buildings and bodies have been and are being found right now.
@@Gravelgratious I see. Makes sense.
I was there in 88 as well!! You’re right… I’d love to go back and see it
Something that isn't mentioned often because of ignorance and controversy is that the people of Pompeii had plenty of warning and were even told to evacuate weeks before Vesuvius erupted, but Pompeii was a party island and not very many people cared or believed it would happen.
It was the prophet Lut (pbuh) warned them that god will punish them for what they did but they didn't believe him nor his wife at the morning he got out with his two daughters and went to his uncle Ibrahim (pbuh) and the punishment of god started
A visit to Pompeii will impress you at just how "urban" the Romans were. They were "city people" 2,000 years ago.
they even had "fast food" stands ...I was fascinated being there
You prefer fortunate to have seen it. I would have loved to been in on the Dig.
My wife and myself visited Pompeii in 2001, it was very sad to see the destruction of the city, the evidence of death in peoples everyday life, yet for sboth of us who have always been fascinated by the Romans it was like entering a living history book, both living in UK we have always had a great interest in the British Romano Period in Archaeology and to visit here was the creme de la creme, sadly our short time in pompeii ennded too quickly, I hope there are no further eruptions for many more years as as many people as possible need to witness this beautiful city as possible
They had concrete blocks of flats. Amazing.
When ancient guy has a better teeth than you.
They used the ammonia in their pee to keep their teeth white. Crazy.. I know
For real 😂😂
@Midnight rider These people are pretty civilized. I would think they'd know about brushing their teeth tbh.
Their water had flourine and the didnt eat a lot of sugar.
@Midnight rider I'm pretty sure the water had flourine naturally in Pompeii.
I visited Pompei 2 summers ago. I cried the minute I stepped on the long walk to the entrance. I was so moved. The culture and the richness of these people was unbelievable. My then 5 year old son was so good with the long walk. He even made me buy the gladiator costume out on the kiosks and posed for pics without end! The calcified people and animals you see there are not the real ones, they're molded from the real ones and the original bodies are preserved elsewhere in a protected area (my son didn't see that, he went to the streets with his dad). They're sad to see but the amazing sophisticated city was a sight to behold. Ercolano is another place to visit, smaller than Pompei but rich on things to see (it's on the west side of Mt. Vesuvius. Voltera (near Pisa) is also a must see - a medieval town with Etruscan sites.😊😍
A must have on everybody’s bucket list. Amazing beyond words.
I visited Pompeii, it was so heartbreaking to see the people. All the history was chilling to see.
Wth, no one ever built over it? It's just the same cleared out wasteland...?? That's wild
You camt really see anything it's just black ash everywhere
I visited Pompei too cause im italian but there wasnt anything expect rock and other things...my mum told me the whole story and that's really sad
I wonder if they did the same thing we are. Trying to figure out how the previous people before them live 2000 years before them.
I, too, visited Pompeii and it was heartbreaking.
Scientists- we want to see if this individual suffer during his last moments
Me- ummm he burned and perish in ash, I’m sure that was quite painful and suffering
He have have died before being burnt, poisoned with the deadly gases or suffocated with all the ash... none of them sound very pleasant though lol.
lol im dead
Many were found in positions that weren't running or struggling so maybe not all of them suffered
A big percentage of them actually suffocated due to the toxic gasses, so probably knocked out before their inevitable death
*suffered *perished *painful
Amazing how they "unroled" the papyrus, absolutely amazing. Go science!
Visiting Pompeii was one of the most interesting trips of my life. I hope I get the opportunity to get back there once this Covid pandemic is over and we're cleared for travel. The view from the top of Mount Vesuvius of the Bay of Naples and surrounding area was incredible. Looking down into the caldera of the volcano was amazing.
Wow. Sounds amazing.
Plandemic will last for some time yet.
Been to Pompeii yesterday and it was astonishing to see and experience it gave me goosebumps
Sucks that there are still some countrys that still restirct travel.
Take me with you
"To see what they died of"? Volcano seems like a good guess.
Usually inhaling ash killed them. XD
@Jeremy Kirkpatrick whatever..... they killed by Volcano !
Quran Already Told Us ...And when the fire catch them they slept on the ground,and death comes to them
Falling debris, burned lungs, buried alive in hot ash, heart attack... etc. Did they just instantly died or did they were stuck, with terror chasing them. Can't run or hide. Suffered, only waited for a painful death that cannot be stopped.
Sometimes people got killed by mudslides, the gastric cloud or the lava itself as well as the ashes
I got to visit Pompeii on a cruise excursion in November of 2019. It was absolutely fascinating. I would love to go back.
I had the book on this and I cried to it.. Bc it showed how ppl were buried alive in ash, a couple that died holding each other, a dog running away, babies cover in ash, families trying to row fast as they can in hot bubbling molten rock flying at them, but worst of all families in houses stuck.
That is so devastating even to imagine
Imagine a person left Pompeii on that day and came back a few months later and came back to what wa left!
no longer found anything as it disappeared from the face of the earth, Even the Romans who came to their aid when they arrived could not find it again was covered by lava and was 25 meters below ground
You will get the answer from Qur'an about this pompei

It’s alway good to learn histories of every countries, good to our hungry brain. Thanks a lot
I just came here from Bastille - Pompeii and I'm bored so I'm just here.
Indeed!
Nice statement.😘
Watching this is a whole thing for me right now I can’t 🤧🤧 This is so amazing I love it
I enjoy watching historical videos. Educational and informative. Culture cannot forward without learning the past.
I went to Italy in 2008. My travel study course had the opportunity to visit Pompeii. It took me a long time to process what I was learning about what happened. We can only imagine the amount of fear, sadness and pain those left behind in the aftermath of the eruption. I will always remember that you cannot stop nature from what it will do and sometimes you can only prepare.
This is not from nature, this is from the creator of the universe
It may have helped not to build a city next to a volcano

I love a good Pompeii documentary. But I wish they’d spent a little less time talking about their cutting edge technology at every turn and just show what the technology enabled them to discover. It feels like a big long commercial for 21st Century Technology. A saying goes “no one wants to know how the sausage is made. They just want to eat.”
I disagree, I think it is refreshing after so many Pompeii documentaries that focus only on the casts of these bodies.
If you want to watch a documentary with a more social aspect of the city, I can recommend Mary Beards´ Pompeii - life and death of a roman town´.
I disagree also; I was fascinated by the technology, being the most developed of our time, and its applications to otherwise impossible discoveries about the ancient city of Pompeii.
I disagree as well, that technology is amazing and boggles my mind. We have come so far. I can't wrap my head around how it works. Loved that part of the documentary.
@Chris Collins 😂W
La B You're absolutely right, this was not a documentary over the "Lost World of Pompeii" as advertised - it was a documentary over "Certain Archeological Methodologies and Techniques now used at Pompeii". That was 48 min of your life you won't get back.
I'm so obsessed with this documentary. It's done so well and so impressive with what they're doing to attempt preservation. I'd love to visit this gem, but the day I would...it would probably be a 🌋 blast.
I was there, it's a magnificent site!! Loved it, and hope to go again some day. All of Italy has so much history. I wish they would rebuild the city, and make it look like it did back in the days when it was alive! The floor art that is still there was so amazing!!
I have always been fascinated with Pompeii since high school, and I'm so happy with the advancement in technology this old mystery is coming to light.
Me too. That means we are old souls we connect to Pompeii maybe we died there
Please don't rebuild it I wanna see it that way! some places in history should remain untouched.
*To keep history alive*
urvi khale i think they are going to rebuild it digitally, but I could be wrong since I haven’t finished it yet
@@DarkComatose15 oh... that would be cool though
History is dying as we type. Pieces of the buildings in Pompeii fall and crumble daily. It’s sad really. My family went in 2010 then back in 2017, the state of so many of the structures has deteriorated rapidly. I’m all for preserving history.. but in this case I think they should restore or at least reinforce some of the structures. Or else my children and their children won’t see the beauty of Pompeii.. even restored. I’ll be traveling there again in 2020 with the hopes that reconstruction has started.
Shona M. Its the same with Machu Picchu, almost every single rock and construction is a restoration, so not original, but if they didnt restorate it there would be nothing to see.
They did not rebuild it lol, it was digitally, I’m sure they won’t disturb the historyz
Amazing we have these experts bring it all to life and uncovering so much information - we are very lucky to be educated in this way. Thank you 👍
I still remember that I bought my little colorful rug to my kindergarten class! I was in love with my beautiful Ms. Wilcox!! Thanks for the pleasant trip thru memory lane!! ☮️
“If he suffer or he was afraid” dude a volcano exploded you don’t need a computer to tell you that
Samuel Ediale if he soofer lol
False alarm Steve wilkos figured it out they whispering in the audience he know the truth
Just for science.. & knowledge..GOD told us to discover their world..that's why they create us
The acid in the air would supposedly have been a very painful death and they’re testing to see if the acid in the air is what killed them. That or swallowing volcanic fumes and choking on ashes. But yeah the volcano is obviously the cause of death here 🤷♀️
Samuel Ediale My thought, exactly.
I'm really glad they made a 3d model of the entire area, much to learn and pass down
Pompeii was an amazing place. You can stand at the amphitheater and imagine the crowd in the bleachers all around you. I spent an entire day there and still didn't see all that has been uncovered. Not even close. It is amazing the work that has been done there with Vesuvius still menacing in the background. I can't imagine trying to get to safety if it should erupt while you are there. It would be total chaos. And because it is so close I can really see not making it. Kudos on the making of and the upload Timeline!
the detail with clothing on the mummy at 3:05 is so cool
Those poor souls, it must have been absolutely terrifying? :'(
yes, but quick, fortunately
Nikki Sainte-Marie the actual dying, yes, but the hours before must have been torture. They could not get away but knew they were dying.
Judgment day
You're asking?
They probably thought (rightly) it was the end of the world.
It's terrifying to imagine how frightened and confused the people of Pompeii must have been when the volcano errupted.
Fascinating work , I always admired people like these guys doing great effort to educate others , all my respects to these sicintists , also the speaker perfect language performance and beautiful voice which made this great work more existing .
I am imagining the people hiding in the boat docks in Herculaneum, just below Pompey! The excavation showed how their blood boiled from the heat....and the next eruption!!!
*But if you close your eyes*
Yea shut up
_Pigs in Clouds_
Does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all?
but if u close ur eyes does it always feel like youve been made before
Haha great tune
How can I be a optimist about this?
You know, Pompeii’s fame is sad, in a way. Pompeii is a place everyone knows, it’s just become common knowledge. You’d have to search for a while to find someone who’s never heard of the city buried, trapped in time by Mt Vesuvius.
But what if the eruption never happened? Or if the city was completely destroyed? Only a select few ancient historians would know of the city, and even they would pay it no mind. Just another expansion of Romes empire.
It’s a little ironic, the event that destroyed Pompeii all those centuries ago also happened to make it into what it is today.
a destroyed city full of dead people? crikey
Utterly fascinating, thank you so much. I've seen so many Pompeii vids that it's refreshing to find a new one!
I'll never get to visit, any more than I'd get to visit Lascaux [were it still open] so I'm glad they're making a virtual record; maybe I'll get to walk those streets one day. [Hope Lascaux will do the same, if it hasn't already.]
Sending my heartfelt thanks to the archaeologists and the technologists who invent the marvelous equipment to enable those of us who "know nothing" to learn!
Amen!
If anyone watching this goes to Pompeii, plan on taking a couple of DAYS to see the ruins. Remember, this is a city and you can't see everything in a couple of hours. I went on a tour and only had three hours. Imagine trying to see a small town, on foot in a couple of hours, it's impossible.
Yeah, it took us 2 days to go around it all. We ventured into a closed off area and an official came along to kick us out (everywhere's camera'd up). After greasing his palm with 50 euro's we got a 3 hour tour of many areas that were closed off to tourists including the brothel with it's risque fresco's. He explained everything in English too, so it was money well spent and everyone went home happy.

I don't know if you can arrange a personal guide in advance, If you can't just stray behind the barriers and they'll send someone out to intercept you. The Italians are pretty corruptable so it shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Scobra - great tip!
...the Italian probably thought so too 😉
Lewis57 where would be the best place to stay when visiting? I’d love to to maybe do a proper tour on one day, and then spend the next day or two just wandering around taking it all in
Lou
Well we went in a camper van and hired a slot on a nearby camper stop for a couple of nights. There's a town a half mile away with hotels etc (can't remember it's name, you can Google map it) but my best advice would be to go off season then it shouldn't be too busy with plenty of choices.
Watching this just after visiting it ❤ Beautiful and impressive city
May everyone have the chance to see it one day 🙏🏻
This must be interesting to be an archaeologist and spend time to unearth the town of Pompeii. When this Covid pandemic is over and we are cleared for travel, I hope I can get the opportunity to visit Pompeii and other areas of Italy.

That would complicate things a little too much. Nobody would be where or when they should be.
With VR technology, maybe we can. Not literally though. But for example, they restore the whole city digitally, and through VR, we can walk the streets and go to places as it was before the eruption. This idea is not so far in the future so I hope they do this and not just limited to pompeii. It could be ancient greece, ancient egypt or sumeria. and if they add the ancient people living npc lives, so it really makes you feel like your walking in the ancient times with the ancient people, wouldnt that be amazing?

Wiped out in an instant 😥
Pompeii was the most surreal travel experiences of my life. You can really imagine what the city was like and still feel the life that was there. It’s wild.
I'm Italian, I live in Pompeii, this video gave me the worst anxiety I've ever experienced.
Evacuate the city
Move some where else
@_.Otaku.Boy._ Calm down, Ton'
I felt that gladiator killing 😅😅
how can you live in Pompeii and never knew the history?
Love Pompeii, but I'll never understand how bringing in 75 million a year doesn't go far in preserving the frescos or mosaics. They've had plenty of time and money. Such a shame.
Gotta pay someone. Maybe it's for researching and supporting all the technology use
They spent the relic preservation funds on Bunga Bunga parties!
Unfortunately, money magically disappears in Southern Italy. But Pompei must be saved: it is like walking into a real Roman city. The next generations in the entire world can not afford to not live such an incredible experience.
The used it all to get Pink Floyd to play there.
I read an article that the mob, and corruption halts progress there. That wealthy man's library might have some things the church may not want people to see though?
great video!!
In my opinion, it was some sort of Intense magnetic Burst of High Frequency Energy that offset the Volcano. The Eruption Burst, may have hit like a Bomb, without the possibility of any quick escape. The Burst had to be something unusual, because it caused Bones and organs to crystalize into stone...wow!
never fails to amuse me that they had graffiti all the way back then...as a species we haven't changed half as much as we like to think
Humans will always be humans duh
It never fails to amuse me that most of us still believe in evolution. In two thousand years.. We haven’t evolved or changed fisically, mentally just a little.. even with the augmented technologies... we are still not fully evolved...
Hey DH! wassup brother! Eell Yes ! I believe that God created all, there is no doubt, and there’s tons of information that proof that every little thing, is a design of a very intelligent supreme being. But No! I do not believe the earth is flat bro. Cientifically it doesn’t make sense. we are traveling thru the galaxy at lightning speed , fallowing our sun 🌞, along with the rest of the planets moving like a proton does rotating and traslating.. There’s no way the earth could do this if it was flat.. I think if our earth was flat, you couldn’t call it a planet, but a traveling Meteor... a huge one.. with a capacity of sustain life.. which is imposible Planet size meteor to qualify for life due to the circumstances.. That’s my theory about flat earth, Bro.
@Dirty Hippie religion and education are two different things, stop making it seem like just because Christians believe in God, it means they believe the earth is flat. ridiculous correlation
@@linnardspanthar6252 what's the evidence God created everything that isn't in your religious texts? We can look at other animals and see useless limbs, organs, etc that were taken by evolution.
This is one of the best documentary's I have ever seen about Pompeii!! I love all the cutting edge technologies used!!! I'm glad to witness such dedicated scientists at work to save all of the ancient knowledge!! Thank you all for such an eye opening experience!!! Love and Great Respect Tamsen Roberts in Riverside California
If I could time travel I would love to witness things like this and see how it went down
WOW that was so interesting... TY for sharing that info...
I spent 2 days there in 2013, and I remember thinking that they should recreate the whole place as it was before the AD79 eruption, somewhere safe but close. They could have locals working there full time being Roman bread sellers, fishmongers, wine merchants etc., tourists could try Roman meals, there could be gladiators in the arena and performances by actors in the forum. It would be one the biggest tourist attractions in the world, there would be nothing else like it... a true step back in time. It would take enormous funding of course, but so do places like Disney World and this would be so much better; no time machine required, just the price of entry and there would be less people trashing the actual ruins.
Scobra I’ve always wanted something like that
Scobra... Preservation Vs. Restoration... a very, very difficult argument all around the world, but specially in Italy. Most things are worth more preserved as they are than restored...yet, sometimes I too would like to see ancient Rome come back to life but perhaps by virtual reality.
Gennaro
Preserve the original, faithfully restore the experience anew and close by. It's a win-win for everyone. VR has it's merits, but actual reality trumps it every time.
Scobra... I can't argue with statements out of context. Virtual Reality can restore the experience anew and close by, and respecting and preserving the original. Whatever you believe to be "Faithfully restore" others may think is basically FAKE REPLICA. And sorry dear, NOTHING IN EUROPE IS FAKE. I hope you are aware that Pompei was a horrifying natural disaster... and you want fake clowns entertaining "Tourist"? no, no, no..... NO.
Disney World that's you would get by destroying the original place.
If you guys wantbtonplay romans take some aphotosvan build it elsewhere.
And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love great clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above.....
Oh how am I gonna be an optimist about this
But if you close your eyes. Does it always feel like nothings changed at all.
In my high school time, my teacher had told me about that lost city story.. I was so interested to hear
Absolutely amazing broadcast, it's impressive what one can do the killers technology. In a way amazing, but also very scary to watch the last death struggle of all these people. It must have been disgusting to them.
In this fascinating documentary you are transported more than 2000 years back into ancient life and history. What an advanced civilization it was and how people lived, enjoyed and went around their lives. I think a lot of people today would've liked to live in those times. Thank you so much for the great work.
They used a community sponge on a stick to wipe their rear ends, and pretty much everyone had parasites. That alone is the one reason I wouldn't want to live during those times. Everything else was absolutely amazing!!
I remember going to Pompeii. It was a surreal experience for sure. I remember looking at Mt Vesuvius and thinking to myself just how far away it looked. Something that was seemingly so far away destroyed the whole town in such a short time. I wonder if there were people back then who thought the same and that's why they didn't leave - thinking they were far enough, maybe they were safe.
They deserved it
It looked like an ordinary mountain but covered in green (providing fertile land).
@@LickyTee No they didn't. Nobody would deserve to face such an end.
God. That's terrifying.
Gasses came in while they slept killed them all nobody got put
Enjoyed this😍
Great documentary I very much enjoyed watching it. 👍🏼
I’d like to make a slight correction. Gladiators of Rome were not allowed at war. Gladiators were technically prisoners. Rome was very particular about who represented them and wouldn’t allow a criminal to fight next to them
Some were prisoners. Others were highly-paid professionals.
@@stevenschnepp576 very few were highly paid. Mostly prisoners /slaves. They didn't make it easy for them to become freeman
@@danniis9444 your definitely right when talking during the 2nd, and 1st century bc, and the 1st century ad. It depends on the era however. Early on, and especially just before Romes hight in the 2nd and 3rd century, definitely, they were almost universally slaves with a few free citizens fighting in there. This made a ton of money for the owners of these slaves, and also a ton of money for whichever free citizen would fight. These slaves wouldn’t live nearly as badly as other slaves might. They made a ton of money, so their cost would barely be a drop in the bucket. Besides, them being in good spirit and having an actual incentive to fight well, would have been useful. Don’t get me wrong, they certainly wouldn’t live glamorously, but not terribly. By the hight of rome in the 2nd and 3rd century the number of citizens had risen significantly, though slaves still made up a decent majority. Since there was just a ton of money and fame to be had, citizens might have just decided to do for themselves. When rome became Christanized, a man named Tertullian wrote about his ideas that the gladiatorial sport was immoral and pagan. Constantine, the first Christian Roman emperor decided to ban the sport for free citizens and slaves, and transition to using especially heinous criminals. After around a decade of that he decided even that was barbaric, and ended the practice all together.
@@donewitheverything2292 interesting thanks
Marcus Aurelius is reported to have hired robbers, for his fight against Barbarians at the Danube.
I never been there, or step my feet there but by this documentary I can gain a knowledge about what happen there.. Hopely someday I got a chance and opportunity to see it with my own eyes.. 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾✈️✈️✈️
I’ve been there many times and also to the Archaeological Museum of Naples where most of the city’s artifacts are located and I can say that I learned a lot from this documentary.
🇲🇾
@@saveriosalemme5366 How amazing that must have been to visit!
When i grow up i will visit this place.So excited.
Great documentary!
Imagine a VR Pompeii with reconstructions of all its inhabitants going about their day.
You could have a Pompeii 2.0 and witness the destruction.
This is not a magical place. It is a punishment for their sins.
They became utterly disobedient, and God destroyed them.
So that the next generation or the people who come to know about the cause of it.
again a religion guy
@@Yourlocalfriend789 this was not from God the volcano erupted it's nature as if earthquakes is nature there's nowhere in this world that sin does not abound the next time God destroy this Earth by fire but we all sin that person says is because of sin don't think he sin I guess there's no one that keeps whole law which means we should all be destroyed too but God doesn't do that when Christ came down and died on the cross sin was done away with we now have a choice receive Christ and live are not received Christ live away from God after all we leave this earth and go into another world call the spiritual world human living can't understand hope I actually explain this to you not getting you upset God is real our religion is how we see God over 43,000 different religions I Google it God still real he's not a religion anymore that I'm a girl because of my voice people think I'm a woman over the phone no way that's okay I'm used to it doesn't bother me woman tell me things they wouldn't tell a man they learn more about how they think I can treat them with respect
I know god is real but this is too much
Idk if it’s just me but it kind of makes me sad for them that must of been so terrifying
trust me...don't feel sorry about cultivated foreign religious acts because they are engaged in all kinda sick pedophilia....if you pay attention to the gathering, it does not look like they were trying to protecting one another..god put a stop to it
@@latanyahood5622 well said.
@@latanyahood5622 ancient people had very different cultural norms, base them of what life was like at the time, not what your opinions of present day people are, men dated young boys back then and they were okay with it, its wrong sure but its an ancient civilization, they're human and deserve as much sympathy in their time as they do now
Imagine if someone 2000 years in the future started calling you a savage for say... Eating meat or fish, you cant "put a stop to it" they're already 6 feet under 2000 years worth of decomposition
Fascinating content, thank you for sharing
Back in 2006 I was given a choice wether to visit Florence or Pompeii, i’m glad I chose the latter as it is truly a majestic place.
The history of Pompeii has been a favorite of mine. I very much enjoyed this documentary. I can never get enough of learning what transpired in Pompeii.
No one:
Everyone in Pompeii :THE FLOOR IS LAVA
No one said nothing. Ok... so what did everybody say?
They said "lol"
Disrespectful 🤬
Ash,not lava
@@Angela34 Nah don't worry Romans always enjoy a good laugh.
