Thank you! Would love to see some more on ancient Middle East and first civilizations. Love this channel lol
4:43 “at its eastern end, the sun rises a full one hour and twenty minutes *later* than at its western extremity” are you sure about that? You’d think a big budget documentary would have known the sun rises in the east, therefore sunrise happens SOONER than it does in the west
Great program. Best is a long time on this subject.
Thank you for this research about the Great wall of China and you put the story on video. Thanls for thi channel.
Houses built in the UK. For many hundreds of years. Are still standing
The Great Wall is over 2000 years
Those houses aren't on top of mountains facing the elements.
You just compared some old houses to The Great Wall of China. That’s hilarious.
thats a self righteous brit for ya@@user-lg2zl5nm1w
And not using rebar and they build in the land safe from earthquake zone
Imagine the time and resources they'd have saved if they *only* built the wall in places where horses could travel. That was is main purpose, so why bother building in areas where no army could have easily approached?
It was not such that an army could pass through, it was that several hundreds that could pass through even that could cause raids and pillage. In the end, the Wall was also a psychological warfare too.A Wall would be useless if there are gaps.
Those gaps were probably intentional gaps for weathering or enemies!
I was thinking the same as you.
I just did some research and find the reason . The great wall was built to observe your enemy and send signals and transport army and weapons quickly.
It is like expressway, both info and army.
Why don’t the videos on this channel have soooo many more views? Great content! New sub and not I’ll be going through the whole catalog. History channel is great but I’ve seen everything at least twice lol.
My father built houses like that in the 1950 s in Rhodesia. Rammed earth
I am speechless 👏👏👏👏
At 27:09 “How did they cook billions of bricks” Bricks are not cooked, they are fired. Cooking and firing are two different things.
@jonkoenig2478 Intelligent comments and comments from jonkoenig2478 are two different things.
Not overly impressed with this version. So much of what was presented is a rehashing of other documentaries I've seen on the subject. And, I must add, what is the significance of having Jean-Marie Gontier (8:50) as a qualified spokesperson for the Great Wall?
Excellent video 😊
Great presentation!!
Thank you! Cheers!
The hills are alive with the sound of music. Ok. Im listening again
You got it? Thank you man
Nice
At 29:21 “baking bricks” Bricks are not baked, they are fired. Baking and firing are two different things.
Thank you so much for this video
Its possible they use rice and hot water as an organic wall because we need to think what the workers eat daily at that time will be parts of wall build as well
'preciate it
45:30
It remind me on my childhood era when my mom use rice to make a glue for my school paper project
We save money buy making glue using rice
The rice are cooked and adding a little bit water on hot water make it hard sticky glue to stick paper
It probably they use rice and hot water and some plants materials to make the mortar

Where you at
I usually don't mind when repetition is used to help us remember basic facts in a documentary. But, here, it is overused to the extent that a fascinating topic becomes boring.
To transport having been fired are factors that have to be considered. Fired with what
Amen
Right in the desert. I told you you remember me man.
At 28:09 “countless ovens” They are not kilns, not ovens. Kilns and ovens are two different things.
The AI voice is really bad! Please find another one that can pronounce correctly. Or better yet pay a human to do the host voices!?
Tamped earth. I knew it. Rammed earth. That explains quite a bit of megalithic construction.
What happened to the Ming dinasty
10,000,000 li is not 10,000,000 miles as the gentleman tells us. It is about 5,000,000 kilometers.
See we agree
The song from the movie
Hmm 10kgs /brick , 5 bricks is heavy going up hill ? No conveyer type system ?
No idea
💯
Remember me now
Only if you want them to live forever
the truest part is the bodies(slaves) that died or were murdered were built into the wall that they almost admitted
Look at this picture to jog your memory...Look
Here come my man i know you remember him. Ill call him over here...Hey Matthew come over here man...Ok... Give me 4 minutes...
Ray a drop of Golden Sun is that it
Is that a firm foundation
Tea a drink with jam and bread
Now how would I know that if you didn't know me
Ill be by that tree over there. Hey Simon come holla at me
Pressure. But i digress
not one human bone ever found ? This took a few years and millions of workers . Not a grave to be found ?Would make sense.
Yet to have not ever found an human bone ? Nah !
Guy dies on the slopes and body is 're processed ' , fairly fresh meat , what did they live on ?
How many people died during this construction. Were all of them pay worker or just slaves? I am guessing most of them were just poor peasants forced to this slave work - not pay, just a bowl of rice.
Chine are famous of this ... I am curios why nobody talks here about it. I am hearing only "ohh" and "ahh" - such a magnificent construction.
It was built on lives and bones and blood of poor people there. You should be ashamed glorifying this !!!!!
It should be classified as an exhibit of crime against humanity.
This as been how things were built for thousand of years, that only slowly change in the last 200 or 250 years. You think that the men building St. Peter’s of Rome made fortune?
More native Americans killed by USA government than people died building the great wall.
@@patrickols Those who built St. Pete's did not make a fortune, that is true, but they were not slaves. They could choose to work or leave. Those in China, did not have that. They worked as slaves from generation to generation. They fed them to keep them going not for goodness of the heart.
People from East do not value life of any individual. Life is cheap there.
All the worst crimes against humanity were committed in countries of the east. See Stalin, Mao, Red Khmers etc.
Adolf, compering to them is just small insignificant bug. They killed in hundreds of millions of their own !!!
Are you racist? Before Hitler west killed millions by slavery from Africa, simply erased native Americans, endless wars as usual through centuries, colonies through every where...of course through your racist point of view Adolf killed comparatively nothing...
i said this about 100 times, slaves died building this and were put inside the wall as they went. what a disgusting film of propaganda
Now tell them
Come on man, you know, Meee...My Momma and Us used to live down by Yall. Remember? Meee man
Isn't it microscopic and NOT microscopeic as the announcer says?
I won't forget. Imma get you back. Bet
Resilient not everlasting
😮😮😮
La a note that follows dough
Oh okay then like earthen vessels
Built to last?
What????
I came home from Wentworth Womens January 2020. While ther for 2 years i had a dream. Matt Damon and an exercise Lady was in thr dream. You had the dream of a Lady too? My Sister used to dual dream like that, she said once, and my Mom told me about it. That was me though.

The propaganda is strong. There’s no way this is the true story.
the truest part is when they almost admitted human bodies are in the wall
