Video footage is taken from National Geographic's Living Edens: Lost World: Venezuela's Ancient Tepuis.
It is a wonderful documentary describing the history of expeditions to the summit of Mount Roraima and some of the ecology that exists on the peaks of these immense plateus.
NatGeo just does not make documentaries like this anymore. Absolutely stunning.
Those tepuis are amazing! I was looking at Venezuela with Google Earth, and learned about these mountains. So beautiful!
Ancient Trees
It's hard to believe that such beauty still exists 💝
Why some people would not like this documentary? It's an amazing place
So so so beautiful, I'd give anything to visit this place, ancient and untouched
our world is soo beautiful. i love my mother earth.
He is my lord
Christian Askew And mine too.
Oh God, "_____marvellous are your works and that my soul knows right well.”
Thank your father God.

Yes we have. It’s because of our sinful nature. Until Jesus all things new - especially we that are born again - then the world will be an ugly corrupted place.
and then a bunch of religious weirdos get on board and talk about Father god...haha..I don't trust people who pretend to believe in fairy tales.
You didnt discover a thing people already exist there... Salam from africa to my venzuelas brothers..
I have an idea, instead of using the word Discovered, it's not fair to the native local people, let's use Documented. so it will go like this, Angels falls was first Documented (not Discovered) by Jimmy Angels in 1933 bla bla.... who is with me?
im with you man, it was discovered by venezuelan indigenous peoples, not by one american. it must be called how it is, you know, kerepakupai vena.
Oh please. Who is gonna use that name? lol
That's like Chávez trying to change The Avila's Mountain name... to Waraira Repano, cuz natives called it like that...
The Avila will always be, The Avila.
Angel Falls, will always be, Angel Falls.
its not strange that someone shows up talkin about Chavez president when it comes to Venezuela stuff; I didnt say that because of jimmie angel was an american, said That bc I think each place in our world should be called by its former name and NOT by someone who just got there.
To be fair , you cant discover what you already live.. its a discovery to everyone else .this is indeed a discovery for the outside world.
People are always so butthurt about this stuff. Who cares. Give credit to the white man. Brown men ain’t shit.
I was 14 at the time, but wow, I still remember the first time I saw a Tepui in my life - honestly, It is breathtaking.
Lucky!
I simply can't believe how ignorant some of these comments are. This is absolutely beautiful and there's SO much science to back it all up, that arguing with it borders on juvenile pranks. Are you people really so small minded as to believe these mountains were BUILT by someone? That these animals were PLACED here in some kind of crazy effort to stage this video? Or the best one yet.... "So, it's still a frog even though there's environmental pressure to change?".... The amount of ignorance in that ONE statement makes me ashamed to be in the same genus.
These formations have always intrigued me. The fauna is so unique
Thanks for giving us precious information about nature.
Bello mi pais. Venezuela, eres grande.
O povo venezuelano também é bom
@@rodrigomanoel3844 venezuela deberia ser un pais que se cuide y visite mas sustentablemente. , Venezuela should be a country receiving more tourism , of course in a sustainable and responsible way. By Only watching this documentary I can confirm it would be worthy.
- A venezuela e muita bonita. Eu gostaria de fazer uma viajem aos variados parques naturais.
Saludos de argentina.
Graciela Guerra la verdad que , ojalá la puedan mantener así, saludos de un hermano Uruguayo que algún día me gustaría visitar tu hermoso país 👍
one of the last places on earth with readily identifiable relics from the Antediluvian World
Which never happened
Angel falls were not discovered by Jimmy Angel; the indigenous people of the area - Canaima - knew about the falls long before Jimmy crashed his plane on top of the Tepui...
Roraima is very impressive; spent three weeks in the area, back in the 90s. Totally awesome...!
Ralph Girard usualy when they say "discovered" they say discovered by the occident aka white mens...
I know, right? The locals knew about it for centuries, but once a WHITE DOOD saw it, it has now been "discovered". That sense of self-importance is real something, damn.
giabread your racial inferiority is really something huh? Lmao. You brown men so butthurt about everything white men do. Go do something yourself lmao

Tepuis are my favorite mountains when i get my hands on Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 the Tepuis are gonna be one of my first places to check out.
bro did u check em out?? pls tell the experience
Bella mi Venezuela 🇻🇪 with a tropical climate, and its waters compact with the sky, at its maximum splendor its unique landscapes to travel and think about the beauty of the life that God gave us
For the full documentary, just simply write In TH-cam Mountain Roraima , Venezuela 🇻🇪
Marina Reynolds thank you
Thank you
That term didn't work for me, but I found it, it's here, still low res .. th-cam.com/video/qk5yOI6NU8s/w-d-xo.html
I live on this country and i travel all around the world, and never see something so pretty like Venezuela
I love my country :3
And how about those ladies!
Mmmmm
angel was the first man to discover the waterfall:!? REALLY! I BET THE NATIVES AREN'T BLIND AND HAVE ANOTHER NAME FOR IT
Por supuesto que lo conocían los indígenas de la zona y lo llamarían de otra forma, pero el resto del país no tenía idea de que existía. Por supuesto se conocían los tepuyes, el monte Roraima etc. pero el Salto era desconocido para el resto de la población.
@Trip Gil STFU.
The white man always wants the credit.The white man wants to own it all. Noone else matters. I really dont think that is what god desires.
Can everybody settle down and stop all the self-loathing and hyper-ventilating ? You’re all going to melt...
William Griffin no abilities u said? and until now the pyramids all around the world still exist and people around the world have no clue/clues how the ancient people built them. they are way smarter than u are.
El mejor pais del mundo VENEZUELA mi pais.
uno de los mas bellos hermano
No lo es la verdad .No te digas mentiras solo porque eres de ahi
Where's the "UP" house?? 🎈 🏠 🎈
There was definitely a stone dodo bird carving on that mountain, I wonder what civilization made it.
@Jorn Navarre hahahaha Mr. Jorn Brain has the holy answer.Thanks for your unfathomable wisdom.
Look up mudfossil creatures

After 9long years!! Hard times😭

So You Mean To Tell Me Venezuelan People Was There All That Time And Never Knew That Mountain Was There?🤔🤔🤔 Great Discovery! How Did They Miss It?😂🤣😭😂🤣😭
@@mcslipper8875 What Kind Of Retort Do I Have For A Guy Who Calls Himself Soapy Penguin?🤔🤔🤔 Live It Up" Soapy!😂🤣😭😭😭😭🤦🏿♂️
very very sad, that the full documentary is cut that massively... the original documentary was awesome... but its very unfortunate to here the cuts in this shortened video.
Does anyone know where i can find the full documentary without beeing cut that often?
Is this where Up was based?
Yes
So was the lost world
yessss
Adventure is up there!
Could some of these plants be whats shown in the Voynich Code??
Probably so
good question in answer I have to say me not know!
Very very beautiful your film more please🤝🙏🙏🙏🙏👍
hermosa mi Venezuela.
Venezuela's Ancient Tepuis may be the next Disney attraction.
Its already on disney movie "UP"
There is something so deliberate in the images in these stones! Could this have been the Disneyland of the lost ancient advanced cultures which cataclysmic catastrophe's helped erase?
Our creator and heavenly father is the truth and complete honesty yahuah was here when everyone and everything was created pay attention ignorant sheeple WOW
I like to think so. Or of the less advanced people that they ruled over. I wish I knew more about those cultures, but if they were erased maybe they weren't so wonderful?
Is there a link to a HD or 4K version of this video please?
Doco's like this are awesome to watch on my new 4K Smart TV
So much majesty in tepui.
Wow! Awesome place. Pity those Venezuelans can't enjoy running water 1/2 the time with all this water around them, I heard there's something very special about the water of Angel waterfall.
Yes remember this from movie in the 60s. Cool!!
i want the full documentary, any one knows where i can find it?
Stop lying to the ignorant sheeple those are ancient tree stumps cut down by the fallen angles before the great flood of Noah and the creation of our creator and heavenly father yahuah YAH
@@elchupulooo8970 it didn't occur to me when I was watching it until you mentioned it. Amazing
@@elchupulooo8970 where could I get a source for this knowledge you are presenting?
Visit Guyana
In just 7thousand years wind and water has taken it’s toll on this landscape. Great are His wonders.
This is a science documentary. Keep your imaginary friend out of this conversation.
I Saw those tepuies when I was working as a Medical Doctor in Tumeremo.
Watch the "Wise up" channel to find out more about what all this is about and much much more about our True history

@@crunchynuts793 yes I am a punadict, I like to go for the groan!
awesome music and photography. a collectors item.
Interesting and worthwhile video.
Totally, and the name is Kerepakupai Vená
Nunca lo hemos conocido por otro nombre que no sea "Salto Ängel" Tal vez los maquiritares le dieron ese nombre, pero en Venezuela, los venezolanos lo conocimos porque Jimmy Angel estrelló su avioneta en ese lugar y deben saber que es una zona prácticamente virgen, desconocida para la época para los habitantes del país. Ahora resulta que van a cambiarle el nombre a todo, hasta quisieron cambiarle el rostro al Libertador para que se pareciera al difunto, cuando Bolívar fue uno de los personajes más retratados de su época por los pintores y escultores más renombrados y lo conocíamos porque su perfil estaba en la desaparecida moneda, a propósito moneda que ellos también destruyeron y ya ni circula.
Awesome vid, i love my country :-)
I want to be in this place

WOW!! If ever a place to get away from everyone else.. That's the place! Just awe inspiring and fantastic! Just dnt let McDonald's know about it!
so high right now
Oh wglhat N amazing world...river on top of the .mountain..its more miles above sea level
VENEZUELA! country of beautiful women, oil, baseball, and the best places in the world
He loved to Venezuela
When I was 16 an aunt gave me a book with angel falls in it, since then Ive always been fascinated with this amazing wonder of creation....Video was Way to short...
Type in TH-cam Mountain Roraima, Venezuela for full documentary ..
This video is a clip of a full documentary
you can go there, im in venezuela, and if you pay for helicopter, you can go there, there is no longer insecurity because many Venezuelans left
Amazing program.
The ideal would be not to touch the rich and delicate biodiversity.
I can barely describe how disappointed I am that there are no dinosaurs up there !!!!!
There are unique species there, you may be interested JAJAJAJ
Who cares, I wanna bulldoze half of it build a housing community there for the rich, with a fancy mall and grocery store a few Walmart’s. I think that’s a good idea and extract the gold for ourselves and get more rich
What a beautiful place. Venezuelas would rather camp out on Chicago and look for hand our, instead of living off the land at home. Ask how many Chicagoans would love to be there in winter. I would love to see it if Venezuela ever gets a good government.
Ja subi o monte Roraima aqui na fronteira com a Venezuela
That flat plateau looks like the remains of an ancient tree cut down millions of years ago by giants or aliens. Many of these so-called plateaus and so-called mountains maybe the remains of massive trees when the Earth was probably much larger than what it is today. This Earth has many wonders on it and in it that we will never totally understand. We can only be in awe of all the Earth's magnificence.

WTF!
Beautiful.

The caves were rounded pretty good to me somebody did this
Annunaki
@Kaushik Bhowmick I was only joking. I have no idea how the caves came about, but thanks for not being condescending or degrading.
Maybe you should read up about the annunaki more before you make another uninformed comment.
Để phân biệt rõ về kinh đô thì xem lại từ đầu câu chuyện...bắt đầu từ con sông long mạch thất tú...nhiều yếu tố tạo nên kinh đô nhưng chỉ có một mục đích.
Mount Roraima Rocks!!! :)
So... that was the history of Venezuela's Ancient Tepuis? Gee, I would have thought there would be more.
There is a full documentary available.
Okay question, why is the black frog so tiny.
come on humans - we have got to build a superhighway to this place so it can be properly destroyed and then construct a water park with the longest water slide in the world! !
Dont forget we have to enslave the natives. They must be assimilated
This footage makes me wonder about countless things. Many of the rocks look as if they are ancient sculptures. Some look like structures. I am not saying they are, however too many are around to ignore. Someone needs to observe some of these formations to see if this is a possibility or just randomness. Whatever the case, something took place there to cause this. So many volcanoes in the surrounding areas and the quartz formations, along with the plateaus, at one point catastrophic events took place on a massive scale.
Sigh, thousands upon thousands of years of erosion chipped of the softest parts, leaving the rocks with their current shape. No magic required.
@@18dot7 thank you for clarifying
Exactly like "up"
I want to go back to rorama and Santa Elena de uairen 💛🌬️🍃
great documentary
wow how pretty is venezuela.
Part of that is Brazil
@@nccruising6851 5%.
What a savage ending tho. 😢
UP anyone?
Ok, (6:46) how can the continents drift apart if they are still connected at the bottom of the ocean?
They're not. They are drifting on magma. Read up on/watch documentations on continental drift.
18dot7
I have read about continental drift. Yes they float on magma. But they are connected under the ocean. With only a small amount of space between them. The Pangea theory is not scientifically possible. And all the continents do not fit together like a puzzle. They have to change the size to nborder for them to fit
Angel falls were not discovered by Jimmy Angel; the indigenous people of Canaima (the Pemón tribe) knew about the falls long before Jimmy crashed his plane on top of the Tepuy they call it "Kerepakupai Vená" and the Tepuy the fall is in it's called Ayantepuy (thats roughly translate to the devil's mountain) "Tepuy" means mountains in Pemon
Wow. That’s great info u bring.. So “ let me ask u this “have ever herd anything about the world being one big land mass at one point in time? If so elaborate on it for me ..
@Markus Patients awesome sarcasm!
🤣of course all lands were discovered by ancient tribes 🤣but we're talking about early humans
Them cristals and tons of mineralization everywhere means GOLD i would love to go up there with a detector and some diging tools
well you can im from venezuela and i live there, if you want you can but the problem is the goverment, if you are american you willl problably have problem to enter.
Here there are many foreigners, who investigate the country, its situation, the culture, etc. but most of them are not American, because the government takes them prisoner ... but you must come, soon when the government falls, it will be safe.To go to the Angel Falls, there are airplanes, helicopters that you can pay for a trip, without problems, the insecurity under this year, because many Venezuelans fled the country ... so don't worry about that
Just the presence of crystals and mineralization don't necessarily equal gold. It says at the beginning that the tepuis are made of sandstone. You don't find gold in sandstone.

We care about as much as we can put in our mouths and we throw feces. Sometimes, we reexamine ourselves and our own lives as to comprehend to find our routes to navigate or figure out our own path and we do so bearing the hopes of not feeling overwhelmed for the hope of relief and comfort as though not reexamined as though sometimes though seeming like something insulting. We are all human and we are all creatures who can relate and understandably so, though, too.
Explain up towards vocality (to feel the bliss) for (the/a) zenful awe of relief (for) expression (about perception.)
We helplessly laugh at ourselves about hopelessness, which is or can be relatable or insulting.
whats the size of the area on top?
Took the frog millions of years to adapte but he only lived for 5 years.
It amazes me, how they can say caves were formed 3 billion years ago: Was there a plaque on the wall dated? Were there bones found there with a birth certificate beside it? Or is it the dart board guess:
Tim Countis okay prove it. Give me hard facts that prove beyond a doubt that those caves billions of years old maybe you need a dose of practical common sense. Anyone can throw numbers about but prove it.
If you are really interested nothing stops you take a science class in geology.
Gagarinone that’s it. That’s all you got.
You are asking. I am not asking.
Legend has it that there is a secret interence to Agartha
Do you mean "entrance"?
Amazingly haunted 😱❤️

This is an excellent video, everything about the table mountain is unique.
I only found one thing wrong, the blaring music over most of the narration.
Still this aside, most interesting. Many thanks, 👍👍👍
Anyone know when this piece was recorded?
Pssh. Bet that means "Angel's Neat Falling Water Thing". Totally does.
But what about the 'History' of them - not mentioned.
wow untouched,, how do we keep it that way! by not touching it.
He speaks of the separation of the land as if it happened in an instant. And the frog got trapped...WTH.
I bet those flowers would live in Texas, the state of four seasons in a day. 😀
The narrator said the caves were 3 Billion years old. That's incorrect; the sandstone was dated that age. The caves were formed before the continents split apart but not earlier than when the sandstone was brought close enough to the surface by erosion to have received rainwater that seeped down from above. That would date the caves between 170 and 150 million years old. Even on a laptop screen the great cave appeared to be a wonder of the world. We need more film and study of that huge ancient cavern that had entrances on the opposite cliff faces of the mountain.
Igneous dykes cutting into the sandstone were dated geochemically using U-Pb concordia. The sandstone was deposited in a shallow marine basin environment (as evidenced by the preserved ripples in the beds) during the Paleoproterozoic Era, approximately 1.8 billion years ago. The caves are Precambrian, older than 550 million years, as there is no fossil record of multicellular life present.
The rocks look like they have been melted by something or hit by some serious heat at some point.
Angel falls venezuela , just imagine the origin of source of flowing fresh water where life depends on it . Not only human but all living cretures around it . Also on tibet and himalayas . Modern days human drink mineral bottled water at a high cost .
“The man who first discovered it”? Give me a break!
Man that first investigated it for science?
White man will fawk it up like everything they touch .
NOTTHASAME oh yeah and without the white man you’d still be in the jungle so stfu.
And he asked the locals for directions before making the spectacular discovery..! How convincing!
Love that old DC3
At one point they say the land around was once at the same level then that they were thrust up at some far off date in the past. How about the rest of the land was washed away leaving these plateaus and the underground rivers dried up leaving the large caverns which can no longer hold water?
@Jamey CraigI don't doubt an upheaval. But as that took place there could have been a removal of the surrounding sediment leaving these mesas intact. The southwest U. S. is an example of this.
I really love how people consider that something is lost in time if there's very eroded rocks all around. It's not lost in time, the plants and fauna have evolved, rocks have eroded, like everywhere else on the planet.
They would never say the same about an untouched part of the jungle although time had the same influence over things that dwell in there. Just shows how fucking limited the average person's perception is. Nothing on earth is lost in time, everything is constantly changing.
Even the notion that it "looks" lost in time is ridiculous except if you have nothing more relevant to say and you want to make you commentary dramatic, which again is ridiculous.
Wow cool
