Ivan The Terrible: The Hunt For The Psychopathic Tzar's Lost Library | Myth Hunters | Chronicle

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

A typical Chronicle documentary where the end is a variation of ''we will keep looking'' and/or ''we will probably never know''.
Lol you wasted your time, get fooked
At least they're not making stuff up like some of the sensational History Channel shows.
@@Mermare The Histoey Channel used to be very good back in the day...now they are trash
@orionxtc1119 Absolutely. I used to watch History and Biography channels all the time. So sad. Anything History Hit is vaguely accurate, but not dependable.
Then you should stop watching Chronicle
Realistically, _anything_ stored underground in damp conditions will long have disintegrated in the intervening centuries, most especially paper and leather bindings. Even if there was once a hidden library, it has not existed for centuries.
There would still be signs if it they just dug up a ancient Roman Wooden cellar in England n the conditions are damp as shit here there would be signs especially if they was bound in gold like it says
A book that ancient would now be written on paper
Vellum and parchment
Maybe it exists elsewhere.
Yes! New Ivan IV video dropped!!!
The cruelty from humans never ceases to amaze me
That library was gone along time ago. Prob not long after his reign in The Times of Troubles. Also, how many times has Moscow been burned basically to the ground? You’d have as much luck finding the Library of Alexandria as Ivan’s.
Btw not sure why the Russian Imperial authorities wouldn’t let Stalinsky dig under the armory tower. Nicholas II was rarely in Moscow. St Petersburg had been the capital of Imperial Russia.
I wish Vincent Price could have played Ivan.
Match made in Hell!
Vincent Price should have been the narrator...
"Ivan The Redoubtable" is correct translation (not the Terrible, but redoubtable). "Terrible" is wrong translation.
Feel the difference.
What does it mean’redoubtable?’
@@jessiejames7492 redoubtable
ih-DOUT-uh-bul\ adjective. 1 : causing fear or alarm : formidable. 2 : illustrious, eminent; broadly : worthy of respect. Examples: The theater has hired a redoubtable director to direct its upcoming production.
9:44 “They weren’t vegetarian times”………what?!!? Credibility destroyedm😂😂😂😂😂
I'm guessing that was a translation issue that made more sense in the original Russian.
I used to have a Francophone classmate who used the phrase "close the light" which was a literal translation from the French even if not the correct English.
I suppose vegetarian times could be reference to one of the many famines, plagues, or a brief period of cannibalis.
Perhaps it was a polite but poor mistranslation of a colloquial joke about shit...
I'm in the middle of watching Eisensteins Ivan The Terrible. Nice upload.
I enjoyed the bits in between the adverts…
Very cool.
Thats a super cool story
How exciting! ⛏️
Keep at it buddy
You are the Zen Master of tooth piks greetings from South Africa
Игнатий Яковлевич Стеллецкий (Ignatius Yakovlevich Stelletskii) in the 1910s and 1920s had a modern head torch and a modern powerful hand torch did he ? Ohhh ! and in places, bearing in mind the floodlights here and there, I don!t know why he bothered with the head and hand torch, the flood lights would have been better. Ivan, of course, had a glass sided lantern and was also aided, deep in tunnels, by electric back lighting. REMARKABLE !!! This is supposed to be serious, spare us the totally unrealistic and misleading drama
But there weren't there two Rurkid Ivans, Ivan III the Great and Ivan IV the Terrible?
Anyone else feel like that archeologist was a Rick Riordan demigod? This has huge child of Athena trying to find some book his mom lost in the Byzantine Empire. Poor guy.
Things were simpler in those days.
It’s clearly real the list was found so we just need to pick up where he left off😅
I don't know, maybe it's the time of day on a weekend... but I'm totally bored with this.. I'll try rewatching a weekday morning....
A weekday morning?
He'll! Everything is more fun when you're supposed to be working! 😅
I love to watch as I go to sleep😊
Nice try Ivan, we’ll find those books wether you like it or not
@@BigpapamoneymanMVPtypebeat
Lol. Nice one.
I watch as I poop.
Right now it is like brown water.
I will probably need a shower after this.
Hello
It is very painful and shameful that in such films a small fraction of the truth is mixed with outright lies! It’s even more pity for the viewers who believe in all this and spread lies further. You want to know the truth - read books by real historians, not two old types that no one has ever heard of.
Do you have recommended books that should be read?
@@curtisjohnson5784 I doubt it. Or it'll be something by a Graham Hancock type
Please recommend some history books
Old types?
@@cruisepaige
It’s the French for “old geezers”
Sorry. I don't believe 1/2 of what they say.
lol, that’s still giving them far more credit than they deserve. But I’m on board for sensationalized bullshit on occasion
Wetterman 16:47 wasn’t actually Estonian, he was a Baltic German (so a German born in the Baltic states, in this case in Estonia, Tartu), those two are very different, Estonians at that time were nothing more than farmers and slaves :((
From the German perspective at the time, the Finno-Ugric Estonians were mere serfs and slaves. It was only in the 19th century, when theories of national self-determination and one nation, one state, were propounded, that Estonians began to become independent.
For some reason, people, though history, decided to destroy libraries and books mutable time 😊
Wonder why Ivan turned out the way he did. I suppose seeing endless cruelty and wars in russia growing up. His successor , Putin
geez... some of the dialog in this is, barely listenable... sounds like an essay written by a 7th grader
Probably Poles and Lithuanians eated that library because of hunger during occupation of Moscow in the year 1612
Im pretty sure nobody cared about some nerd looking for old books. If they knew what he was doing they probably would have just let him find it for them then take it for themselves.
comment
If the bars had rusted out then the books have rotted away.. and this is why the elites should not be given the keys exclusively to our past...
I didn't need the shock of suddenly being forced to see those ppl being shot the first time early on in this video - but the second time was like getting unexpectedly smacked in the head a second time. Such documentary footage is both unnecessary and highly off-putting. I will now think at least twice prior to viewing this channel's content - which is a real pity in that I've enjoyed some of your others in the past. I just do not need that kind of violence suddenly forced into my mind.
Welcome to Earth. Reality is not always pleasant.
@@d.c.8828 Naturally, it is not. But I don't need to be constantly reminded with severe moving images of real live murders. And they used the same footage more than once, with no warning whatsoever.
What a let down! Fascinating but ..........
Don't believe the hype
What hype? 🤔
@@danielasuncion9991 the hype you know public enemy made a song about it
Russia's leaders havent changed 🤣
The Quest for Joe Biden’s brain is even more compelling.
his friends called him ivan the panties dropper
They never find anything and TOO MANY FUCKING ADS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Putin has it
so somebody went looking for something and didn't find it. what a pointless documentary
He reminds me a lot of bloody vlad rasPOOtin 😢🎉
How is he different from Vladimir Putin in relation to cruelty?
Not a single russian academic in this rubbish documentary
You just wasted my time a little 🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏
