It took 7 days in the jungle of Guatemala, 8 weeks of editing with a whole team of editors and a community supporting us by purchasing the doc early to make this happen... (And then UA-cam doesn't let us monetize it hah, great!). No but we feel so grateful for this wild adventure and couldn't be happier we finally uploaded this to UA-cam. The amount of endless software problems, challenges in the story and brainstorms on how we could continue making films like this in the future has been wild. We're stoked to be in a place where we're happy to put this out for all of you guys to see. Thank you so all the creators for joining us and helping make this film possible. Thank you so Sam Kolder, Andreas Hem, Sorelle Amore, Johnny FPV, Chelsea Yamase, Max Rantz MacDonald and Perry Grone. There are links in the description for biosphere preservation, we highly encourage you to check it out and support in whatever capacity you can. MUCH LOVE!
Ammar, as an Egyptian girl whose wanted nothing more than to travel, see the world, make a change, and meet incredible people like you all- your story touches the deepest part of my heart. To defy expectations we didn't even ask for put on us in this culture always results in getting disowned in one way or another. I've been struggling so much with what I want to do. The anxiety of facing my own parents non- support, judgement, and flat out defiance against what makes me most happy is crushing. I see myself in you just as I know so many will as well in similar situations. Thank you for being brave, open, honest and sharing your story and heart with the world! You're leaving it a much better place than when you entered and for that you have nothing to be ashamed of. I thank you so much for giving me the most needed hope right now to follow my own path despite the resistance♥️ may you always do too and find all the love and happiness
After reading I can somewhat understand with a mom having the same mindset. I've been struggling with wanting to do what I want to do in the future. I feel like I'm bogged down by my monotonous job and I feel like I'm going nowhere and I'm slowly drowning. Thank you and Amaar for giving me more courage to pursue my dreams.
@@BravotheChonk you're not alone! Please don't ever give up chasing what makes you most happy❤️ we only have one life. I pray with time it gets easier and better for you. As long as we're living, there is hope
Do what you have to do.Just keep loving your parents even if they are not supportive.Parents live in fear of losing the closeness of their children.In the end you will help them to overcome there hidden fears.Few parents will show there vulnerability.
Bruce Lee would say, 'the more you think about something, the least likely you are to do it.' In other words, stop thinking about it, and start planning it.
The fact that a bunch of like minded people got together and did this without knowing each other just shows how unstoppable the human spirit really is. This was incredible to watch and very inspiring. Thank you all for this ❤
This became a great bond of as you say human spirit in like for like interest amongst strangers a great philosophy and what an excellent output of a series of adventures. I would have loved to have had the trust in my life to do more as these folks did, hats off to them all, they give me such a lot of pleasure.
i think that if you have a message you want to spread, the best way is to make it the easiest accessible possible. certainly deserves recognition but from those who want to obtain such message, not from those who can economically afford to do so :)
Seeing that smile on Ammar's face was priceless. I know the feeling. Took me 40 years, a different country, and no physical contact with my family since 2008 to reach my dream. Never give up!!
More like needlessly dangerous and unjustifiably stressful to the animals. Johnny keeps crossing these boundaries when he documents wildlife, there's a point when you stop being an observer and instead begin harassing animals for the sake of the shot. It happens with overzealous documentarians who film on foot, but its even worse with clout chasing drone operators. Having one of those things buzzing by wildlife while they're running away is inhumane and needlessly traumatizing.
I just rewatched this documentary again after 3 years of it release and I can’t even stop crying on the bond and the friendship, you guys took the whole crew to Amar’s dream come true and give everyone the experience of a life !! After all your success never forget how it all started and I know that being a member of yes theory for 6 years now I won’t forgot where this all begin !!❤ love over fear always
This trip was heaven. Thank you for organising this and having me part of it!!! (I did also just drop a little behind the scenes of this video on my channel too, my take on the adventure.)

Big Props for your straight way and inspirational words!
@@SquidProQuo80same situation in India. General mentality here in my parents generation is that they have worked soo hard in raising us, so they expect us to be successful ( become doctor/ engineer/govt job) have a house, wife ,kids and stay with them in peace for lifetime. They have seen loss of near and dear ones , so adventurous activities are a big no.Travelling, having fun is the waste of money and resources and is last thing in their dictionary. Feels like a jail where I am Bound by the shackles of responsibilities. I love my parents to the core of my heart& grateful for what they did for me(I am becoming a doctor lol) but sadly that's what restraining me from doing what I aspire.
You would have seen more of the modern tourist installations. Like the groomed paths and wooden steps so the city kids who weren't prepared don't hurt themselves
Ammar believe me you've touched all our hearts. I'm Egyptian myself and I'm almost 70years old I was an Egyptian Airforce pilot and an American Airline captain for 15 years. It took me several years and a lot of time effort and money to see my dreams come true. I wish if I can convince your dad to let go and let you fulfil your dreams. I really enjoyed all your episodes with a lot of of enthusiast and excitement. Keep up the good work. I love you son.
@@robinjames7967 For sure! Both! To go there without an archeologist and botanist or plant expert is to miss out on a lot, but I guess it was don3 on very short notice and compatibility was probably their top concern.
@Chris Williams his country and great majority of kinsman are backwards thinking primitives acting out medieval systems of oppression, and he can't quite put it into words. Go find some muslim apostates and hear their story.
Hey, you do what you need to do to make it happen. And we appreciate it so much!! Absolutely beautiful and heart wrenching. What a group of such strong and talented young people! For an older woman who has just very recently found your channel, I can't thank you all enough for taking a path, and a journey that if I were younger and not disabled now, I would love to have joined you or if any way possible, I would sponsor you! Ammar, I am most happy for you. Keep going guys, dream your dreams and live free and happy all. Lana
The smile on Ammars face is priceless! So happy for him, and wanted to let him now he is an inspiration for those of us whose loved ones aren't necessarily on board for our dreams! I also want to say he worded it perfectly when he said he was not upset with his parents that he knew they only did it from a place of love. Amazing content, and much love!!!
you guys go on the most insane adventures and i am so glad your documenting it all because a lot of normal people dream of these things but will never get to experience them, thank you.
This episode hit me hard, only started watching you guys last week and already I've been inspired by your journeys so much! Ammar and his relationship with his dad and the power of his dreams brought a tear to my eye fr. I'm very close with my father but he lives in Madeira, Portugal 🇵🇹 and I live in England 🏴 so seeing him isn't a thing that happens often, so when I see the respect Ammar has for his father regardless of the situation between them, it instantly inspired me to book flights where I'm going to surprise visit my father in March! I'm absolutely stoked now and I know had I not have watched you guys none of this would have happened so honestly Thank-you and please continue to create your unbelievable content and show people to chase their dreams. I'm no professional but I will be attempting to document my journeys from now as I feel its something I want to show, that it's possible to get your dreams no matter who you are. Will be the start of something beautiful I know it. I can feel it. ❤
This is sincerely one of the few times that I watched a documentary from start to finish, no breaks all in one sitting. I am fascinated by video content creation and you guys absolutely killed it. Yes Theory has a set of mind, a vision and a look on life that I always have. I feel so incredibly supported to see that I am not alone. This documentary made me very emotionally. I cried/weeped, I had moments of pure joy and moments of incredible gladness. Ammar his story touched me the most. Ammar I really hope you see this. My father and I have had no contact for around 4 years now since we have deeply seated issues which cannot be resolved. Ammar you are not alone and I would like to know that I as a simple Yes Theory Fan am there for you. Even though it's maybe only in thoughts. Me and everyone from the Yes Theory Family is with you. Much love, Govert from the Netherlands
I'm now 30 and I hope it only gets better from here, watching you guys gives me some hope that one day Ill be able to travel and see the beautiful world. Thank You for all you guys do you're all an inspiration! Keep up the beautiful work
Your next adventure of wonder lies just down the road from your home..... just beyond that hill that you have never gone beyond before. Go "walk-about"!
Anna Niedermeyer people have a tendency to focus on what they don’t have, and what they want, instead of being thankful for what they have, you could say lack of appreciation
I am sorry to disappoint you but it doesn't deserve to be number one. The first documentary was so great and you actually learned something, but this time they set the bar to high with their announcements, and you get little value. It rather feels like a travel vlog.
I can't even begin to tell you how much I love your Channel. You are doing the things, the trips I could never even dreamed of and now I am too banged up and old to do them. You bring me laughter and joy! I did have the pleasure of climbing Chichenitza, Tulum and Coba when climbing them was still allowed. I feel very honoured. (Mexico) . thank you for sharing with the world you amazing journeys!!
Many people have never seen Chi Ch'en Itza, Tulum, or Coba. You have done okay if this is all that you ever see. Then again...... there may still be time to see another thing or two yet (smile). Ek B'alam awaits you! EdzNah? UxMal?
I love Ammar just simply for the fact the tears that are running down his face are from a deep place in the soul, I pray you heard every noise and feeling that brought you to such a state. That was peaceful for me to watch even on a computer. Yes theory you guys are so enjoyable to watch and I love how you all keep each other going. Soul mates dont just come in pairs or as lovers, most times they come as friends and thats a whole other kind of intimacy.
Respects and blessings to all of you. You represent the finest of your generation. I am 76 and adventuring since age 18, writing this from Lisbon where dear Ammar my son, in Portuguese “Amar” means “to love.” Courage and Joy to you as you continue to climb and conquer (with Love) many more of life’s pyramids. Bravo YES group!
I’m so into this group of people and the way they look at the world. It’s so motivating, the concept of pushing yourself for adventure and challenging one’s self is really cool
You guys are awesome thank you for doing this for all of us who no longer can ! ive got tears in my eyes, all my life I was a nomadic adventurer now im bed bound and disabled and I just found you ! Thank you, you have no idea the joy you are bringing me ! Old Owl Alaya UK.
well they actually wanted to monetise it, but youtube wouldn't let them - check their insta story. But still doesnt take away from the fact they still uploaded.
WHOA. YOU JUST UNLOCKED A CHILDHOOD MEMORY, entirely unrelated, that I had forgottem. TY SO MUCH! Off to thank my Daddio for such experiences I've long forgotten.
Yeah, I was watching the scene right as I saw this comment. It's painful that a parent wants everything for their child, except for them to follow their dreams.
Yeah true, but in the end you cant change his opinion, unfortunatelly... he thinks he knows whats best for his son, as all parents do, and doesnt want him to regret it. He made a mistake as we see it and i hope he apologizes, but in his eyes, until he realizes what he did, he is always going to think Ammar made a horrible decision by choosing dreams over him
HUGE respect, dear boy. My South African-born sister has been an Egyptian citizen for 35 years. My nephew and niece are Egyptians. They are conflicted, but know no other way. I hear you!!! For an Egyptian man to seek out and find a pyramid in Guatemala flips the cultural and mythological bird in so many ways..
I didn't know anything about Ammar and his family, so when I watched this and saw what he had gone through I actually began to cry. Hope your parents will change their mind, Ammar! Greetings from Norway
This was the reason that all those times you tried didn’t work. All of it was for this opportunity, this one of a lifetime chance, this experience to bond and conquer. We’re so proud of you guys, especially Ammar . Congratulations guys and best of luck for the times ahead.
they probably purchased a lot of batteries bc at one point a dude said his bag was filled with batteries and just spent the time before going charging them all
@@suzannahhillary9326 solar power is more powerful than you think, but yeah I bet they carried a lot of batteries on top of that. Going on that trip the last thing you want is to run out of battery or memory, so I'm sure they prepped in that aspect pretty well.
Hands down best UA-cam Channel of all!!! What a family bind you all have. Everything in one channel from emotions, adventure, too excitement y'all always stay true to each other.
I found this channel by mistake. I watched Africa and Syria. This was so fantastic and gripping. I can't describe the incredible feeling I got. How great you guys can do this. I have had adventures. Traveled to several countries and continents. Makes me sad I'm getting to old. The commradery was wonderful. Thank you for such a moving video.
I did feel Amar's passion and longing when he was describing his life-long dream of climbing the pyramids of Giza. That being said, I can't help but wonder if Amar and the YesTheory fam would have gotten such an amazing opportunity to meet these beautiful souls and have had this awesome experience. Maybe sometimes one door (even our favorite one) has to close to allow us to find a different (perhaps better) one.
people just climb it anyway. if graham hanckock can illegally climb his old ass up there anyone can. these kids nowadays are pansies and embellish to make everything "epic"
@@ruserious7319 Its not about actually climbing the pyramid its about pursuing the dream that he once had and I dont believe that would be accoumplished illegally
LAV considering how the Egyptian authorities have handled the honor and responsibility of being in control of such history, i would consider it not only appropriate but a triumphant spit in the face to the deniers of my dream. some people are shut down by no and others refuse to let ANYTHING get in there way.
ru serious stfu why would you even say that the most gangster people in the world cry thats when you know you actuslly a real man because you arent gonna hide it and you aint hiding shit in side like you probably are your just mad because you aint man enough as him to let this shit out on video and to cry infront of millions so stop hating
Brendan Murray uh. . . ok, sure. my daughter wouldn't have cried that much, it was embarrassing. the guys got good friends and i am glad for that. because of his emotions, he will need good friends throughout life. i feel bad for his father. i came for a jungle expedition and got a high school field trip. no hate on the guy personally but it does leave me concerned for his generation
ru serious man just leave. This made me emotional because I had my piece of shit father “disown” me before I was even born... the reason Ammar displays so much emotion is because even though his father disowned him and such, he was still able to accomplish big things and make an impact on peoples lives. This isn’t meant to be just some “jungle pyramid exploration” it’s meant to be a milestone in not only Ammars; but everybody who was involved life’s.
As a 12-year-old Muslim Arab girl Amar gives me some much hope an I love watch him achieve his dreams it just gives me more confidence so yes theory your amazing keep going
What are some cool things you do daily? As an American 13 year old girl I'm really interested in what you do daily, or like what you find interesting. Considering the current quarantine situation it'd be really cool to find out about someone who lives differently and how ot affects you.
Perspective is everything. You father wasn't there and he didn't carry himself to or up the pyrimid. You carried him with you. That takes much more strength. Much love
When Ammar started crying, so did I. The work you guys are doing DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE. It sure did make a difference in my life. Your channel and your hard work have taught me to actually seek discomfort. I was always happy with where I was in life but now I want to expand my horizons. I want to see more, I want to hear more, and I want to do more. This is all thanks to you guys. Don't even think for once second Ammar that your work doesn't make a difference. Everything this channel stands for is what I want to stand for in life. To keep working for more and to never merely settle. I read a comment somewhere under one of your videos which said "Yes theory is not just a youtube channel, it's a lifestyle" and I couldn't agree more. I can't even imagine the amount of work that goes into your videos but every time I watch your work, I'm inspired. I don't know if you'll see this comment but if you do then I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you to everyone who makes these videos possible. Thank you, Thomas. Thank you, Matt. Thank you, Ammar.

You would have seen more of the modern tourist installations. Like the groomed paths and wooden steps so the city kids who weren't prepared don't hurt themselves
ikr I found the documentary had too much of Egypt and not enough of Guatemala
@@dylanhilts7018looks like the jungle has hidden this gem
This is one of the best video's on this whole platform.
We know about two percent of our history.
OfficieelBen so true ♥️
Agreed. An incredibly touching and exciting share.

Hey bro visit a channel named praveen mohan you will be mesmerised
Ammar believe me you've touched all our hearts. I'm Egyptian myself and I'm almost 70years old I was an Egyptian Airforce pilot and an American Airline captain for 15 years. It took me several years and a lot of time effort and money to see my dreams come true. I wish if I can convince your dad to let go and let you fulfil your dreams. I really enjoyed all your episodes with a lot of of enthusiast and excitement. Keep up the good work. I love you son.
This is a fantastic comment!!! I really hope Ammar sees this!!!
Thank you for your service.
People love people more and more by every day that pass.
I don't believe you were e a pilot etc
@@madmikesmountianmadness1917you are a piece of 💩
You should totally bring a plant expert on some of your adventures to explain more about the area and wildlife.
THIS! i wanna know more about the plants theyu encounter there
I agree!! I’ve seen Native American herbalist on cooking shows before & the information I’ve taken in just about mushrooms, is amazing!
or at least an archeologist..
@@robinjames7967 For sure! Both! To go there without an archeologist and botanist or plant expert is to miss out on a lot, but I guess it was don3 on very short notice and compatibility was probably their top concern.
@Sturmblau Yeah! That too!
One of the most powerful lessons:
"Discomfort is the greatest way to build friendships." - Thomas
Those drone shots gave me chills. The whole documentary was amazing
My heart broke into pieces when Ammar started crying...
Ammar lost a father (temprorarily to my judgement) and gained a million brothers. I am Ammar's brother.
irondasgr pardon me but is ammar now on good terms with his father again?
same with me
@Chris Williams his country and great majority of kinsman are backwards thinking primitives acting out medieval systems of oppression, and he can't quite put it into words. Go find some muslim apostates and hear their story.
Thank you guys for showing to the world how beautiful the Mayan ruins are, my country has so much history in it!
The recruitment montage for the trip was like the coolest heist introduction. What an inspiring group of creatives
You beat me to it!
This documentary should make the Guinness World record for having the most number of executive producers.
Hey, you do what you need to do to make it happen. And we appreciate it so much!! Absolutely beautiful and heart wrenching. What a group of such strong and talented young people! For an older woman who has just very recently found your channel, I can't thank you all enough for taking a path, and a journey that if I were younger and not disabled now, I would love to have joined you or if any way possible, I would sponsor you! Ammar, I am most happy for you. Keep going guys, dream your dreams and live free and happy all. Lana
Or grown men crying in it.
@@mjc42701 Like they can't.
@@Chilarioo They can cry a river and butthole surf down it.
This comment thread is very confusing.
Ammar‘s smile when he reached the top of the pyramid is the best part of this documentary
The smile on Ammars face is priceless! So happy for him, and wanted to let him now he is an inspiration for those of us whose loved ones aren't necessarily on board for our dreams! I also want to say he worded it perfectly when he said he was not upset with his parents that he knew they only did it from a place of love. Amazing content, and much love!!!
This belongs on National Geographic. The sheer beauty of the cinematography and camaraderie is unbelievable. Amazing work yet again!
kdding, right?
@@edwassermann8368 no? Do you disagree?
@@rishabhkachru3264 yes documentaries are about facts. Not a bunch of grown men crying..
A movie about Ammar’s life would be D O P E.
Sayyaf Zanyn this is it... this is the movie
Ammar or omar?
@@azraeiazman it is ammar
@@azraeiazman see in description it has his name
Sayyaf Zanyn i would watch it!
How is this not gaining 10 million views and more?! This should get more recognition than Logan Paul's videos🤔
Because people are scared to dream
Thanks
Because of 12 years old
I was just saying that in my mind
Logan who?
I hope Ammar’s parents can see this and realise what a wonderful son they have raised….. put aside the ego and judgement, just love him as always.
sadly religion trumps all
This is the longest UA-cam video I have seen without getting bored . The best documentary ever!!! Love you Yes Theory
Ikr I dived so much into it then I tapped on the screen and it was already 35 minutes in.
I agree
Nicky27 frl the time flew by so fast
GAMING VIRUS true
It went from 0 to 60 in a second
48:40
I love when the tree covered Ammar mouth when he bout to say WTF
Ikr actually an amazing piece of cinematography!
Rxc Fitz HAHA SAME
Yessssss! I was like.....PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol
These drone shots are SO SICK it’s unexplainable!!!
Madeline Nicole Gree 100%. The video story, not so much.
you guys go on the most insane adventures and i am so glad your documenting it all because a lot of normal people dream of these things but will never get to experience them, thank you.
The camera work here is great overall, but the drone work is INSANE. They've definitely captured the purpose of this whole adventure
Agreed!
This inspired me to buy a top of the line drone that I've wanted for the last 3 years
When Ammar said “i miss him a lot” ... i felt that 💯😢...
I hope Ammar makes up with his father 😢
Right!
This episode hit me hard, only started watching you guys last week and already I've been inspired by your journeys so much! Ammar and his relationship with his dad and the power of his dreams brought a tear to my eye fr. I'm very close with my father but he lives in Madeira, Portugal 🇵🇹 and I live in England 🏴 so seeing him isn't a thing that happens often, so when I see the respect Ammar has for his father regardless of the situation between them, it instantly inspired me to book flights where I'm going to surprise visit my father in March! I'm absolutely stoked now and I know had I not have watched you guys none of this would have happened so honestly Thank-you and please continue to create your unbelievable content and show people to chase their dreams. I'm no professional but I will be attempting to document my journeys from now as I feel its something I want to show, that it's possible to get your dreams no matter who you are. Will be the start of something beautiful I know it. I can feel it. ❤
It’s kind of insane how you guys are living peoples life dreams
This is sincerely one of the few times that I watched a documentary from start to finish, no breaks all in one sitting.
I am fascinated by video content creation and you guys absolutely killed it. Yes Theory has a set of mind, a vision and a look on life that I always have. I feel so incredibly supported to see that I am not alone. This documentary made me very emotionally. I cried/weeped, I had moments of pure joy and moments of incredible gladness. Ammar his story touched me the most. Ammar I really hope you see this. My father and I have had no contact for around 4 years now since we have deeply seated issues which cannot be resolved. Ammar you are not alone and I would like to know that I as a simple Yes Theory Fan am there for you. Even though it's maybe only in thoughts. Me and everyone from the Yes Theory Family is with you.
Much love,
Govert from the Netherlands
Govert Duindam 💙

Best part of this is when Ammar runs to the pyramid and says "WHAT THE F..." TREE 48:40
Natural censor lol
Jedadiah Simino || I was just waiting for someone to comment this 😂
hehe yeah :D.
I'm now 30 and I hope it only gets better from here, watching you guys gives me some hope that one day Ill be able to travel and see the beautiful world. Thank You for all you guys do you're all an inspiration! Keep up the beautiful work
Your next adventure of wonder lies just down the road from your home..... just beyond that hill that you have never gone beyond before. Go "walk-about"!
Is no one talking about how it’s a 55min video that is movie quality and NO ADS
Yes Theory is the best and kindest bunch of people
Anna Niedermeyer people have a tendency to focus on what they don’t have, and what they want, instead of being thankful for what they have, you could say lack of appreciation
They wanted to put ads but UA-cam didn’t let them monetize the video
youtube algorithm is an asshole that didn’t monetize the video
Alex Nosky they already got money from it. They let people view it early
I just notice that at 37 mins in... usually interrupted with ads.
This channel is the definition of “living your dreams”
*You guys really inspire me*
Edit:thanks for the 400 likes
💯
Stop with that edit shit
When you realize it’s only 39 on trending... This deserves to be #1!!!!
thats what i was thinking
On my screen it's 33 on trending
No idubbbz
I am sorry to disappoint you but it doesn't deserve to be number one. The first documentary was so great and you actually learned something, but this time they set the bar to high with their announcements, and you get little value. It rather feels like a travel vlog.
I can't even begin to tell you how much I love your Channel. You are doing the things, the trips I could never even dreamed of and now I am too banged up and old to do them. You bring me laughter and joy! I did have the pleasure of climbing Chichenitza, Tulum and Coba when climbing them was still allowed. I feel very honoured. (Mexico) . thank you for sharing with the world you amazing journeys!!
Many people have never seen Chi Ch'en Itza, Tulum, or Coba. You have done okay if this is all that you ever see. Then again...... there may still be time to see another thing or two yet (smile). Ek B'alam awaits you! EdzNah? UxMal?
Ammar's story is beyond heartbreaking yet so inspiring, my heart is full of love for him.
Make me do things I been wanting too, his story
Why'd you cut your hair ?
My heart is full of love for you.
I love Ammar just simply for the fact the tears that are running down his face are from a deep place in the soul, I pray you heard every noise and feeling that brought you to such a state. That was peaceful for me to watch even on a computer. Yes theory you guys are so enjoyable to watch and I love how you all keep each other going. Soul mates dont just come in pairs or as lovers, most times they come as friends and thats a whole other kind of intimacy.
Respects and blessings to all of you. You represent the finest of your generation. I am 76 and adventuring since age 18, writing this from Lisbon where dear Ammar my son, in Portuguese “Amar” means “to love.” Courage and Joy to you as you continue to climb and conquer (with Love) many more of life’s pyramids. Bravo YES group!
I’m so into this group of people and the way they look at the world. It’s so motivating, the concept of pushing yourself for adventure and challenging one’s self is really cool
i've never seen a more beautiful beautiful story of friendship- love these guys and everything they stand for
that one shot with the monkeys in the trees is seriously such a hard shot to get. mad respect to all of the creators
when you prefer YesTheory over Netflix!!! Thanks so much!
You guys are awesome thank you for doing this for all of us who no longer can ! ive got tears in my eyes, all my life I was a nomadic adventurer now im bed bound and disabled and I just found you ! Thank you, you have no idea the joy you are bringing me ! Old Owl Alaya UK.

well they actually wanted to monetise it, but youtube wouldn't let them - check their insta story. But still doesnt take away from the fact they still uploaded.

WHOA. YOU JUST UNLOCKED A CHILDHOOD MEMORY, entirely unrelated, that I had forgottem. TY SO MUCH! Off to thank my Daddio for such experiences I've long forgotten.
No parent should ever make their son decide between him or his dreams😔
Yeah, I was watching the scene right as I saw this comment. It's painful that a parent wants everything for their child, except for them to follow their dreams.
Yeah true, but in the end you cant change his opinion, unfortunatelly... he thinks he knows whats best for his son, as all parents do, and doesnt want him to regret it. He made a mistake as we see it and i hope he apologizes, but in his eyes, until he realizes what he did, he is always going to think Ammar made a horrible decision by choosing dreams over him
When was that part?
Sometimes child dreams are full of shit omar is in a 20% group of people that made there dream come true ..parents know whats best for u
Or daughter
*Yes Theory out here taking UA-cam content to the next level* 🙌
why do so many of you beg for attention with bold comments? lmao
It was paid first but yeah lol
You may think this comment was bold but many would agree. There content is far better than most of what I see on UA-cam.
Your crew introduction sequence was exciting to watch and filmed like the pros.
Not filmed 'like' pros, they are pros ❤
HUGE respect, dear boy. My South African-born sister has been an Egyptian citizen for 35 years. My nephew and niece are Egyptians. They are conflicted, but know no other way. I hear you!!! For an Egyptian man to seek out and find a pyramid in Guatemala flips the cultural and mythological bird in so many ways..
Why isn’t this recommended to everyone?
This is also like a nature documentary, History, technology and personal challenges all in one!
It’s not monetized so UA-cam puts it out of the algorithm
It's on trending right now
Wilko Weers_861 that’s *completely* false
Just Building In Minecraft because government doesnt want people to know about pyramids
I have no words watching this can’t imagine what you have all experienced, This was incredible.
This documentary is far better than the content on netflix
on god
Facts, I hate seeing comments saying they should be on Netflix. No UA-cam is perfect
@@WhoisAustin I feel like Netflix would be rushing them for more content and quality would severely drop
No one's too late in discovering your channel. I can feel my adrenaline rush by just watching your group in this adventure 🤩🤩
I didn't know anything about Ammar and his family, so when I watched this and saw what he had gone through I actually began to cry.
Hope your parents will change their mind, Ammar!
Greetings from Norway
Me too. Like i was choking em back the entire time until he actually got to the top then they started flowing
Benjamin Eikrem tell your buddy Denmark to sell us Greenland. 😂👌🏼
I knew but still I'm such a cryer, feel yaaaa
This was the reason that all those times you tried didn’t work. All of it was for this opportunity, this one of a lifetime chance, this experience to bond and conquer. We’re so proud of you guys, especially Ammar . Congratulations guys and best of luck for the times ahead.

LOL good one m8, or however I shall call you my bratta.
U ever take a risk?
I cried and cheered with you guys. So happy Ammar got to live his dream and that he got to share with the crew and us. What a life to live.
i just realize this is not a movie, it was real life and i wanna do it someday too.
And this some day is not come in many of our lives..

I'm in! Let's do it

Amazing but 1 question how many god damn portable chargers did you bring
Solar panels to recharge their batteries. You can get fold up portable ones.
I love your profile picture 😂😂
nicadizzle yeah but I’ve heard they take days to recharge but maybe they got really nice ones?
they probably purchased a lot of batteries bc at one point a dude said his bag was filled with batteries and just spent the time before going charging them all
@@suzannahhillary9326 solar power is more powerful than you think, but yeah I bet they carried a lot of batteries on top of that. Going on that trip the last thing you want is to run out of battery or memory, so I'm sure they prepped in that aspect pretty well.
I cried while Ammar was crying, He is such an inspiration to me, You're so strong Ammar we love you 💖
I dont even knew his history😭
Same brother...all love
Hands down best UA-cam Channel of all!!! What a family bind you all have. Everything in one channel from emotions, adventure, too excitement y'all always stay true to each other.
Ammar's face when he sees the pyramid is priceless. I felt so happy for him! This video is amazing, great work Yes Theory and others!
I'm Guatemalan myself and I didn't even know this huge thing existed wtf
LuisFer Vettorazzi Maybe you're not part from Indigenous people in your country?
LuisFer Vettorazzi same here..😅 this video makes me want to go back and visit again though
Only knew about its existence, but watching it from this approach was amazing. I love you guys! Viva Guate.🇬🇹
Isn’t it incredible how they got from dancing with strangers to this. Yes
Everything they do is incredible.
That’s right 😁
I found this channel by mistake. I watched Africa and Syria. This was so fantastic and gripping. I can't describe the incredible feeling I got. How great you guys can do this. I have had adventures. Traveled to several countries and continents. Makes me sad I'm getting to old. The commradery was wonderful. Thank you for such a moving video.
I just really wish that Ammar got to climb the Pyramid of Giza in his home country
I did feel Amar's passion and longing when he was describing his life-long dream of climbing the pyramids of Giza. That being said, I can't help but wonder if Amar and the YesTheory fam would have gotten such an amazing opportunity to meet these beautiful souls and have had this awesome experience. Maybe sometimes one door (even our favorite one) has to close to allow us to find a different (perhaps better) one.
people just climb it anyway. if graham hanckock can illegally climb his old ass up there anyone can. these kids nowadays are pansies and embellish to make everything "epic"
@@ruserious7319 Its not about actually climbing the pyramid its about pursuing the dream that he once had and I dont believe that would be accoumplished illegally
sherelle francis he got the premium plus
LAV considering how the Egyptian authorities have handled the honor and responsibility of being in control of such history, i would consider it not only appropriate but a triumphant spit in the face to the deniers of my dream. some people are shut down by no and others refuse to let ANYTHING get in there way.
I don't know why but when Ammar started talking about his home family something inside me went emotional.
Random Dude maybe because you are feminine as well,
ru serious dude
ru serious stfu why would you even say that the most gangster people in the world cry thats when you know you actuslly a real man because you arent gonna hide it and you aint hiding shit in side like you probably are your just mad because you aint man enough as him to let this shit out on video and to cry infront of millions so stop hating
Brendan Murray uh. . . ok, sure. my daughter wouldn't have cried that much, it was embarrassing. the guys got good friends and i am glad for that. because of his emotions, he will need good friends throughout life. i feel bad for his father. i came for a jungle expedition and got a high school field trip. no hate on the guy personally but it does leave me concerned for his generation
ru serious man just leave. This made me emotional because I had my piece of shit father “disown” me before I was even born... the reason Ammar displays so much emotion is because even though his father disowned him and such, he was still able to accomplish big things and make an impact on peoples lives. This isn’t meant to be just some “jungle pyramid exploration” it’s meant to be a milestone in not only Ammars; but everybody who was involved life’s.
As a 12-year-old Muslim Arab girl Amar gives me some much hope an I love watch him achieve his dreams it just gives me more confidence so yes theory your amazing keep going
What are some cool things you do daily? As an American 13 year old girl I'm really interested in what you do daily, or like what you find interesting. Considering the current quarantine situation it'd be really cool to find out about someone who lives differently and how ot affects you.
as a Butanese Nepali kid that grew up in the US i do nothing but play my phone
As a Chinese kid who grew up in the United States. All I do is cry in a corner because I have no friends.
@@BringbetweenBern same bro😐
Perspective is everything. You father wasn't there and he didn't carry himself to or up the pyrimid. You carried him with you. That takes much more strength. Much love
When Ammar started crying, so did I. The work you guys are doing DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE. It sure did make a difference in my life. Your channel and your hard work have taught me to actually seek discomfort. I was always happy with where I was in life but now I want to expand my horizons. I want to see more, I want to hear more, and I want to do more. This is all thanks to you guys. Don't even think for once second Ammar that your work doesn't make a difference. Everything this channel stands for is what I want to stand for in life. To keep working for more and to never merely settle. I read a comment somewhere under one of your videos which said "Yes theory is not just a youtube channel, it's a lifestyle" and I couldn't agree more. I can't even imagine the amount of work that goes into your videos but every time I watch your work, I'm inspired. I don't know if you'll see this comment but if you do then I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you to everyone who makes these videos possible. Thank you, Thomas. Thank you, Matt. Thank you, Ammar.
kind words from the bottom of your heart ❤️
