If you read up on on them, they did in fact have some close encounters with outsiders and in one case, Sentinelese were kidnapped and later returned. It was a mess, so the stories they probably pass down about outsiders probably emphasize avoidance at all costs.

I climbed up Chichen Itza when I was 14ish. So maybe 87/88. There were no restrictions of climbing up to the top and the guide even encouraged a race between some people. On the top there was a person selling water bottles that were very expensive for the time. My mom bought one.
I visited Cancun with my family at about the same age and year, and every time we left the hotel we were bombarded by Chichen Itza tour sales people. We didn’t go and I now think it’s probably not a great idea to have modern tourists walk all over your ancient monument, but now that closed I kinda wished we did.
When I was there in 2004 you could still climb it. I’m pretty clumsy and had big loose shoes on so I avoided those scary, narrow steps and insisted on visiting everything else first. Eventually I was dragged by my companion to the pyramid to climb but fortunately (or not), when I was only a few steps up, the tour driver told us it was time to go! Mixed feelings because now I won’t get another chance.
I went twice to Chichen Itza in 1991. You could climb anywhere you wanted. There were no ropes and on some of the ruins you could start climbing down a set of stairs that you could not go all the way down because the bottom half of the stairs were rubble. I went to the top of the temple both times. Really steep and steps were not deep for a big foot. Easier to go up than down. Awesome place.
Many places in China are also highly restricted. To name a few, there are several mountain peaks in China that are banned from people climbing, such as the Meili peak. The reasons are religious.

The Convention was held at Alice Springs. We arrived a few days early, and stayed with friend of the fellow I traveled with. We took a tour bus to Uluru and arrived there around 1PM. It was fun and a learning experience. We didn't climb to the top. At that time it was allowed but discouraged, because it was a sacred site to the indigenous people that lived there. But was amazing to see the hidden pools, and the petrographs. There was a gravel path around the bottom, and signs along the way, explained the significance of various caves, pools of crystal clear water, and alcoves. The tribal people had built a visitor center. And a small resort there. It blended in somewhat to the land. We then traveled on the tour bus to a place on the hwy, with gorgeous views at sunset. The tour company had set up some small tables and chairs, with some small sandwiches, cheeses, biscuits, dips, small cakes, etc. All that as we watched Uluru change from gold to red to purple, while sipping on champagne. I'm glad now, since it closed, that I was able to see it up close. From 2000 to 2008 I lived and worked on Oahu. While there I befriended a Hawaiian family that lived on Niihao, and was privileged to be invited to stay with them for a few days. They are totally off grid there. There is a small store that is the only place with electricity, as they have small refrigerators and a freezer to store food items. Drinking and cooking water is limited there. But the people are wonderful. They helped me to name one of my grand-daughters. Her name is Kea'aloha,halani. It means "A gift of love from God". She goes by Lani.

there are many such a "closed towns" in Russia. Most of them are military/nuclear production sites. Some are established from the scratch, some are old towns just converted to such a facility. Usual Soviet practice was to name them by numbers (ie Arzamas-16 instead of real name Sarov), all these computer shooter game names like Gorky-40 originates from these official names.
In the late 80’s we flew from Canada to Mexico 🇲🇽 I climbed to the top of that pyramid in the Myan village, I was only 8 & so proud but the stairs are so small & steep not like regular stairs.. I got stuck & too scared to get down 🙈 the tour guide had to climb up to help me get down & wasn’t too impressed 😅 none of the adults climbed up, I definitely remember I was the only one brave (or stupid) enough cuz the stairs were SO steep!! 🙈🔺🏜️☀️🌄 I still remember feeling the heat HIT me like a little physically object when I stepped off the plane! I had never felt heat like that in my life, when I came home a month later my skin had turned “brown”! It was like I had changed nationalities 😅 it actually looked great till it started peeling off & I was left with brown & white patches all over my body 🙈 also since I wore sun glasses the whole time the skin around my eyes stayed white so I was like a reverse racoon! 🦝😸 my mom made me go to a 2 week camp like that & the stupid girls laughed at me & started a rumour I had a skin disease 😫😒😐
I remember well to visit Chichen Itza when I was much younger. I never climbed the steps but the archeology surrounding this place made me quickly realize the importance of it in history. I could just "feel" it.
No mention that it was early contact with the North Sentinelese that caused the distrust of outsiders in the first place. Also "rumors" of cannibalism was said with disgust and reinforces tribal stereotypes. All of this hostility came from the fact that they were messed with by outsiders in the first place.
Glad to hear Mr Uluṟu in Australia is banned for anyone to climb it as a mark of respect to both Aboriginal people and land owners. It’s a beautiful site and very natural.
There are even more restricted sites in Australia, namely the atomic detonation sites which remain secured as British territory. Get past the Aussie outer exclusion area into the central zone and you are instantly shot dead by the British army without question.
I presume you are talking about Woomera Prohibited Area. I don’t know where you get your information from as Woomera is controlled by the RAAF, not the British. The British haven’t tested nuclear weapons in Australia since 1963. It has an exclusion zone because it’s an Air Force base and access is restricted for safety and security. If you were to enter you would be detained and arrested rather than shot dead, no different than any other restricted military installation in Australia. It is a restricted site because it’s used for the testing of war materiel under the control of the RAAF. Access is restricted for safety reasons and for national security. The site where the British conducted 7 nuclear tests, under a joint Anglo-Australian operation (operation Totem) was Maralinga. In 2014 full access to the site (Section 400) was returned to the Maralinga Tjarutja after it was excised from the W.P.A.
Just a clarification point on Uluru / Ayres Rock in Australia. You are very welcome to visit and even touch the rock with new trails around it as well as the Olga's which is another rock formation about 10 km away. There are daily tours and yes you can't just walk around it by yourself and need to undertake one of the tours, it is still a very popular resort to stay, so saying it is an illegal place to visit is not technically correct. The only thing which is now illegal that wasn't before is climbing the rock to its summit (which you did mention in your video) :-) In South Australia there is a massive area that covers most of the internal half to lower left side known as the Woomera Prohibited zone, but it encompasses aboriginal lands all the way across to Emu Fields and Maralinga (atomic test sites) - this massive millions of square miles area is completely illegal to visit. You can only drive the Stuart Highway (linking Adelaide and Darwin) through the centre, you are not allowed to deviate off the highway (other than of course for nearby towns, allowable road areas and accesses plus of course camping spots etc close to highway) Obviously there are many places in the world that are illegal to visit as they are former nuclear and atomic test sites.. Nevada, Area 51 etc. Let alone North Korea as a country!
Area 51 is just as blocked as any military testing facility, it’s dumb how much attention it gets, just because people like conspiracies. NK isn’t illegal to visit. Parts of it are. It’s the same point why you made the point in your own comment. You can’t just decide things are illegal when you want to change important context. Maybe stick to the advice you’re imparting. 😅🤷♀️
I want to hear more about that last one. Have none of them fled to modern civilization? They've never heard of Coca Cola or McDonalds or Nike, etc... the advertising executives are failing!
The people don't want the contact ,it exposes them to diseases and it wipes out uncontacted tribes . It happened to them in the past and they never forgot,that's why they react so violently to visitors.
Niʻihau isn’t one of the largest Hawaiian islands. Of the main Hawaiian islands, it’s one of the smallest. And it’s really not that mysterious or particularly “forbidden.” It’s just private property, and like any private property it’s not just free for anyone to visit whenever they want to without permission from the owners.

I envy the Tribes people from North Sentinel Island , to not of ever been subjected to this superficial world & not know what are Kartrashian / Jenner is . What absolute bliss !
"tribes". "not have been". "Kardashian". Not surprised you immediately jumped to Kardashians. Some people only see the superficial 'cause that's what they enjoy. Also, people like those tribes, generation by generation, created the world as it is because it suited them and they wanted what they wanted. The Noble Savage is a myth. They are murderers who kill you in your sleep simply for resting in a boat near the island. If that happened to you for falling asleep in a car neard the border of your neighboring country it would have been an international incident with people calling for the death penalty.
@@SarcastSempervirens Well if they get cancer that's it game over. No Hospitals I doubt they will have many elderly if any. In such a dog eat dog world it's no surprise they become killers. And that they kill you if you sleep near them is perhaps because their history tells them foreigners carry diseases they die from? See it from their view last time they welcomed a friendly person perhaps half of them died?
Walked up the top of Chichen Itza Pyramid in 1983...near Cancun. Been to Diego Garcia Island 1993...US Navy Enlisted. ?????? (Thought you would mention N Korea Navy Bases or some Galapagos Islands instead.)
Been to Diego Garcia plenty, neat secluded place. However to most illegal place is not Diego but the waters outside the Atol. Even if you make it to Diego your not allowed in those waters. I’ve seen a few large tuna caught just offshore, but usually only half of the fish makes it to the boat.
funny thing about diego garcia is that its still british and any mission launched from there by the yanks still has to get british approval no matter how clandestine, the queen and now the king had/has to say yes
I live close to Chichen. I climbed it years ago when it was allowed. Really the cenote underneath doesn't pose any threat as the video kind of leads you to believe as it's inaccessible. The entire Yucatan peninsula is littered with cenotes, somewhere around 10k estimated. Not sure if it was actually closed off for climbing due to the fall, the pyramids at Coba, Teotihuacan, Palenque, etc are also now closed off for preservation. Love the videos, just adding some adding information. :)

A great compilation spoiled somewhat by poor research. For instance the Golden Lancehead isn't the "most venomous" snake in Latin America let alone the entire world. Not something you want to take a bite from I concede, but facts are only facts if they're accurate.
We have our own snake "state," it's called the Florida Everglades, and it's the only place in North America where PYTHONS roam freely, and eat the local wildlife, because stupid people brought them to Florida as pets, and then even more stupidly released them into the wild, instead of properly eliminating them.
I’ve heard of Snake Island, and you wouldn’t get me to go there at all! It’s not that I’m scared of snakes, but I don’t fancy my chances with its vipers
4:30 incorrect. You can still visit Uluru. You can walk around the base and admire is stature. You just can not climb it any more as it's a sacred sites. Many who have taken rocks from this site soon post them back as misfortune follows them. 13:04 incorrect. The Australian inland Taipan has the most deadliest venom. One bite from the lancehead can kill 10 people, where the inland taipan bite can kill 280.. So while the Golden Lancehead is highly venomous, it is shadowed by the potency of the Taipan.
Haahaaa so you try get people to believe your sentiment and follow it with a ghost story? 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏼♀️ Many in the comments are stating they needed to book a registered tour. This is what you call express permission, which was stated in the video. You just listened to what matched your superstitious beliefs. You’ve also used your own wording for the second point. Your snake has the most potency with venom, yeah. But he didn’t say that, he said deadliest venom and your snakes are very shy, meaning they are actually not very deadly in practice. We get it, you can use Google. You just sound like a pedantic loon, just to point out that a platypus is more venomous than the snake you mentioned so you must be aware of the actual deadly nature of an animal. Sure you have more productive uses of your time. Like yelling at teens in band shirts to “name 5 songs” 🤣 There are different ways to look at it the way it was said, the deadliest venomous snake, saw-scaled viper, kills more humans than all other snakes combined but only 10% of bites are deadly. You chose to be like this. 😒
Before it closed, I visited Chichen Itza and was able to climb the steps to the top. I could see why it was closed the steps were VERY steep. Yes, clapping your hands makes the sound of a bird call.
In 1991 I climbed to the top of the Chichen itza pyramid (a calendar structure) and permits to climb it were not necessary nor a fee. There was a chain running from the middle of the base all the way up to the top so that you could hold unto as you climb and come down of the pyramid "safely ". Years later it was not allowed to climb such monument anymore with the purpose to preserve it for it was declared to be a Humanity Patrimony.
I climbed Ayers Rock in the eerly 90's. It's not a difficult climb. When you reached the highest point there's a small monument with a log book you can sign.

Poveglia (the pronunciation was not 100% correct, but never mind...) is technically off limits and there are no regular connections, but in Venice you can find many taxiboat drivers willing to take you there and then come back to pick you up after a couple of hours, if you accept their fare. I have seen a few videos and talked to some who visited it. There is still a belltower and some interesting old buildings, though in ruins. And of course, you need to be very careful and abstain from climbing upstairs, because if you have an accident there, nobody will rescue you. I'm not even sure that mobile phones work regularly there (they might, though, Venice is only a few miles away)

Usual Soviet practice was to name them by numbers (ie Arzamas-16 instead of real name Sarov), all these computer shooter game names like Gorky-40 originates from these official names.
Not to mention the countless Gulags ....
my grandgrandfather (M.M.Tsarevskiy) was the HEAD of such a "lager", building metallurgical plant and after ww2 these uranium project sites.
I knew number 1 would be number 1! :D
You are often confusing illegal with prohibited.
Not to mention "visit" with "climb".
Does Charie Sheen do the narration for this channel?
Dude sounds nothing like Master Sheen!
Nice. Happy holidays and a new year
Happy birthday brother have an amazing day
In the late 80’s we flew from Canada to Mexico 🇲🇽 I climbed to the top of that pyramid in the Myan village, I was only 8 & so proud but the stairs are so small & steep not like regular stairs.. I got stuck & too scared to get down 🙈 the tour guide had to climb up to help me get down & wasn’t too impressed 😅 none of the adults climbed up, I definitely remember I was the only one brave (or stupid) enough cuz the stairs were SO steep!! 🙈🔺🏜️☀️🌄 I still remember feeling the heat HIT me like a little physically object when I stepped off the plane! I had never felt heat like that in my life, when I came home a month later my skin had turned “brown”! It was like I had changed nationalities 😅 it actually looked great till it started peeling off & I was left with brown & white patches all over my body 🙈 also since I wore sun glasses the whole time the skin around my eyes stayed white so I was like a reverse racoon! 🦝😸 my mom made me go to a 2 week camp like that & the stupid girls laughed at me & started a rumour I had a skin disease 😫😒😐
I remember well to visit Chichen Itza when I was much younger. I never climbed the steps but the archeology surrounding this place made me quickly realize the importance of it in history. I could just "feel" it.
Hhoott!¡
Did you have a skin disease raccoon boy?😂
No mention that it was early contact with the North Sentinelese that caused the distrust of outsiders in the first place. Also "rumors" of cannibalism was said with disgust and reinforces tribal stereotypes. All of this hostility came from the fact that they were messed with by outsiders in the first place.
Messed with by Christians
Glad to hear Mr Uluṟu in Australia is banned for anyone to climb it as a mark of respect to both Aboriginal people and land owners. It’s a beautiful site and very natural.
There are even more restricted sites in Australia, namely the atomic detonation sites which remain secured as British territory. Get past the Aussie outer exclusion area into the central zone and you are instantly shot dead by the British army without question.
I presume you are talking about Woomera Prohibited Area. I don’t know where you get your information from as Woomera is controlled by the RAAF, not the British. The British haven’t tested nuclear weapons in Australia since 1963. It has an exclusion zone because it’s an Air Force base and access is restricted for safety and security. If you were to enter you would be detained and arrested rather than shot dead, no different than any other restricted military installation in Australia. It is a restricted site because it’s used for the testing of war materiel under the control of the RAAF. Access is restricted for safety reasons and for national security.
The site where the British conducted 7 nuclear tests, under a joint Anglo-Australian operation (operation Totem) was Maralinga.
In 2014 full access to the site (Section 400) was returned to the Maralinga Tjarutja after it was excised from the W.P.A.
I have no problem with these new rules as long as the natives can do what ever they always did with it .
Very informative
Oh it's an entrance to the underworld alright. Enter and you WILL go to the underworld...permanently 🤣
Plato was trying to warn us!
Hi Nicole!
Makes one wonder how they managed to build the temple around it... "Oh dear... we're gonna need a new stonecutter!"
Only CLIMBING Uluru is forbidden. You can still walk around the base and even visit the cave paintings.
Just a clarification point on Uluru / Ayres Rock in Australia. You are very welcome to visit and even touch the rock with new trails around it as well as the Olga's which is another rock formation about 10 km away. There are daily tours and yes you can't just walk around it by yourself and need to undertake one of the tours, it is still a very popular resort to stay, so saying it is an illegal place to visit is not technically correct. The only thing which is now illegal that wasn't before is climbing the rock to its summit (which you did mention in your video) :-)
In South Australia there is a massive area that covers most of the internal half to lower left side known as the Woomera Prohibited zone, but it encompasses aboriginal lands all the way across to Emu Fields and Maralinga (atomic test sites) - this massive millions of square miles area is completely illegal to visit. You can only drive the Stuart Highway (linking Adelaide and Darwin) through the centre, you are not allowed to deviate off the highway (other than of course for nearby towns, allowable road areas and accesses plus of course camping spots etc close to highway)
Obviously there are many places in the world that are illegal to visit as they are former nuclear and atomic test sites.. Nevada, Area 51 etc. Let alone North Korea as a country!
North Korea is not illegal to visit.
Area 51 is just as blocked as any military testing facility, it’s dumb how much attention it gets, just because people like conspiracies. NK isn’t illegal to visit. Parts of it are. It’s the same point why you made the point in your own comment. You can’t just decide things are illegal when you want to change important context. Maybe stick to the advice you’re imparting. 😅🤷♀️
I wish the government would leave me alone too.
You do what your daddy tell you to do
I want to hear more about that last one. Have none of them fled to modern civilization? They've never heard of Coca Cola or McDonalds or Nike, etc... the advertising executives are failing!
Only one McDonald's fries could kill them.
@@bartobruintjes7056 😀Sad but true!
With North Sentinel, maybe some missionaries will want to make contact, like the guy who got killed when he went there a few years back.
maybe send the Jehovah witness to go knock on their door. may get further with them than they will with knocking on my door
The people don't want the contact ,it exposes them to diseases and it wipes out uncontacted tribes . It happened to them in the past and they never forgot,that's why they react so violently to visitors.
Niʻihau isn’t one of the largest Hawaiian islands. Of the main Hawaiian islands, it’s one of the smallest. And it’s really not that mysterious or particularly “forbidden.” It’s just private property, and like any private property it’s not just free for anyone to visit whenever they want to without permission from the owners.

How do the snakes on snake island survive, surely there isn't enough food to feed all of those snakes. Even if lots of birds fly over daily not all snakes will be fed.
What else do they eat, I'm not sure
I envy the Tribes people from North Sentinel Island , to not of ever been subjected to this superficial world & not know what are Kartrashian / Jenner is . What absolute bliss !
I like my steak and since they haven't invented fire i pass on that one. agreed not knowing is a bliss in many cases absolute horror in other ways.
Well, if you don't mind being the tribes next meal....
"tribes". "not have been". "Kardashian". Not surprised you immediately jumped to Kardashians. Some people only see the superficial 'cause that's what they enjoy. Also, people like those tribes, generation by generation, created the world as it is because it suited them and they wanted what they wanted. The Noble Savage is a myth. They are murderers who kill you in your sleep simply for resting in a boat near the island. If that happened to you for falling asleep in a car neard the border of your neighboring country it would have been an international incident with people calling for the death penalty.
@@SarcastSempervirens Well if they get cancer that's it game over. No Hospitals I doubt they will have many elderly if any. In such a dog eat dog world it's no surprise they become killers. And that they kill you if you sleep near them is perhaps because their history tells them foreigners carry diseases they die from? See it from their view last time they welcomed a friendly person perhaps half of them died?
You have control over what you are exposed to. Don't play like a victim - own your place in the world.
Walked up the top of Chichen Itza Pyramid in 1983...near Cancun.
Been to Diego Garcia Island 1993...US Navy Enlisted. ??????
(Thought you would mention N Korea Navy Bases or some Galapagos Islands instead.)
Been to Diego Garcia plenty, neat secluded place. However to most illegal place is not Diego but the waters outside the Atol. Even if you make it to Diego your not allowed in those waters. I’ve seen a few large tuna caught just offshore, but usually only half of the fish makes it to the boat.
Thanks for planning my next roadtrip bro.
funny thing about diego garcia is that its still british and any mission launched from there by the yanks still has to get british approval no matter how clandestine, the queen and now the king had/has to say yes
I live close to Chichen. I climbed it years ago when it was allowed. Really the cenote underneath doesn't pose any threat as the video kind of leads you to believe as it's inaccessible. The entire Yucatan peninsula is littered with cenotes, somewhere around 10k estimated. Not sure if it was actually closed off for climbing due to the fall, the pyramids at Coba, Teotihuacan, Palenque, etc are also now closed off for preservation. Love the videos, just adding some adding information. :)
Thank you for using metic on screen in support of every country on earth except, Myanmar, Liberia and USA.
I bet there's less snakes on Snake Island than there are adverts in this video!!
But still. Good video! As always 😁
My mind goes to Area 51, North Sentinel Island & the Vatican Vault.
My wife and I climbed the pyramid at Chichen Itza in 2001.
Your wife climbed on me
The most illegal and dangerous place to go is your Ex wife home😅
Even More Dangerous , Your EX Mother in Law's House.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Uluru is not "completely closed off". Walking / climbing up it is now forbidden. All of the surrounding tracks and view points are open to tourists.
It’s the same old story. Because some asshole isn’t careful enough when free climbing a chruch now nobody can free climb a church. It’s a shame.
@@animalia5554 it's not a safety issue. The indigenous people consider it a sacred place and climbing it is disrespectful.
@@stephenpower8723 Do you want me to explain the joke? Because I don’t think you understood it.

Ayers Rock is pronounced "Air's rock"
As someone who grew up in Australia, that kinda hurt me to hear lol. I do remember climbing Ayer's Rock back in the early 2000s.
As an Australian we don’t call it “Ayer’s Rock” anymore and haven’t for years. We use it’s original and traditional name Uluru like he says in the video.
@@1tiffanyjade
I know the Anangu call it Ularu as i have met many of them in my 57 years of traversing this great land of New Holland currently known as Australia.The problem becomes evident when different mobs have a different name for these well known places, so traditionally the English just Named these places after the first Englishman who viewed them .I meant no disrespect, it's just an old mans schooling
@@Timmycoo Wish I could have climbed Ayers Rock! I bet it was amazing…super jealous
@@Hollywood2021 It was super fun! Staying there and at Alice Springs was fun too. There is nothing for miles around when you are atop.
The governments still need to keep up with these places!
NOW WE CAN TOO! Thanks Top5's
A great compilation spoiled somewhat by poor research. For instance the Golden Lancehead isn't the "most venomous" snake in Latin America let alone the entire world. Not something you want to take a bite from I concede, but facts are only facts if they're accurate.
And pronunciation issues
We have our own snake island it's called DC.
We have our own snake "state," it's called the Florida Everglades, and it's the only place in North America where PYTHONS roam freely, and eat the local wildlife, because stupid people brought them to Florida as pets, and then even more stupidly released them into the wild, instead of properly eliminating them.
I’ve heard of Snake Island, and you wouldn’t get me to go there at all! It’s not that I’m scared of snakes, but I don’t fancy my chances with its vipers
4:30 incorrect. You can still visit Uluru. You can walk around the base and admire is stature. You just can not climb it any more as it's a sacred sites. Many who have taken rocks from this site soon post them back as misfortune follows them.
13:04 incorrect. The Australian inland Taipan has the most deadliest venom. One bite from the lancehead can kill 10 people, where the inland taipan bite can kill 280.. So while the Golden Lancehead is highly venomous, it is shadowed by the potency of the Taipan.
Haahaaa so you try get people to believe your sentiment and follow it with a ghost story? 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏼♀️ Many in the comments are stating they needed to book a registered tour. This is what you call express permission, which was stated in the video. You just listened to what matched your superstitious beliefs. You’ve also used your own wording for the second point. Your snake has the most potency with venom, yeah. But he didn’t say that, he said deadliest venom and your snakes are very shy, meaning they are actually not very deadly in practice. We get it, you can use Google. You just sound like a pedantic loon, just to point out that a platypus is more venomous than the snake you mentioned so you must be aware of the actual deadly nature of an animal. Sure you have more productive uses of your time. Like yelling at teens in band shirts to “name 5 songs” 🤣 There are different ways to look at it the way it was said, the deadliest venomous snake, saw-scaled viper, kills more humans than all other snakes combined but only 10% of bites are deadly. You chose to be like this. 😒
The cave paintings are awesome depicting now extinct creatures.
Before it closed, I visited Chichen Itza and was able to climb the steps to the top. I could see why it was closed the steps were VERY steep.
Yes, clapping your hands makes the sound of a bird call.
I laughed at the sentines people dancing lol
Surely any indigenous community has the right to forbid invasive tourism?
plot twist: most cave paintings bear a strong connection with modern graffiti... teens misbehaving
The Brazilian island is an ideal place for bird watching.
Now i want to visit all these places haha
there was two groups that got to meet the north sentinels with peace
In 1991 I climbed to the top of the Chichen itza pyramid (a calendar structure) and permits to climb it were not necessary nor a fee. There was a chain running from the middle of the base all the way up to the top so that you could hold unto as you climb and come down of the pyramid "safely ". Years later it was not allowed to climb such monument anymore with the purpose to preserve it for it was declared to be a Humanity Patrimony.
Number 6 is why the world is in such dire circumstances... How this woman named Elizabeth came to own... Wtf
I climbed Ayers Rock in the eerly 90's. It's not a difficult climb. When you reached the highest point there's a small monument with a log book you can sign.
You mean their USED to be before it was renamed Uulullullululuulullu
Epstiens island., don’t want anyone finding out what really went on there.
Only one McDonald's fries could kill the whole tribe of the North Sentinel Island.
I believe that considering what McDonald's food is like.
Nothing is illegal if you don't get caught
It's pronounced Aires Rock, even though it's spelt with a Y.
Ive been to Diego Garcia ...it was a while ago though i think 1979/1980 ...frankly theres not a lot there and i cant say i did much but i was there a short time...
I know a friend who was stationed there, while he was in the US Navy. He says that outside of work, there isn't a whole lot to do there. He was happy to be transferred off of it when his time came to an end.
To me the sentileese are really cool to learn about but it’s to bad we’ve only had a few contacts with them ever.
They don't want visitors. Not bad.
I wasn't aware that Charlie Sheen was doing voice-over work.
My only wonder is why Dean Koontz or Mira Grant hasn't used Morgan Island for a series of books. :)
If Plutos Gatewas legendary in Ancient Greece, it wouldnt be Pluto. It would be Hades
Poveglia (the pronunciation was not 100% correct, but never mind...) is technically off limits and there are no regular connections, but in Venice you can find many taxiboat drivers willing to take you there and then come back to pick you up after a couple of hours, if you accept their fare. I have seen a few videos and talked to some who visited it. There is still a belltower and some interesting old buildings, though in ruins. And of course, you need to be very careful and abstain from climbing upstairs, because if you have an accident there, nobody will rescue you. I'm not even sure that mobile phones work regularly there (they might, though, Venice is only a few miles away)
I’ve been there and there is mobile phone coverage
@@user-wl6bw3jl4n Oh, cool, have you made a video or written an article or produced any other material about your trip?
It’s just an abandoned island. Nothing fancy about it.
@@jacko83 Well, that's subjective. There are fascinating ruins, which tells you an ancient story if you are able to ask the right questions... For people who just like to enjoy the sun or relax, it may be devoid of attractions, for people like me, they are worth more than Disneyland and the Maldivian Islands taken together
@@nicolanobili2113 sorry Nicola, I haven’t. I’ve taken photos only. I tried to remain out of sight because if anyone reports you and you are caught, it’s a huge fine along with gaol time till you fight it in the Italian court system.

How can you pronounce Uluru and Ayers Rock wrong?
In an otherwise interesting video - it annoys me when research doesn't extend to finding out how to pronounce place names grrr
Sucks that Ayers Rock is off-limits now, would have loved to climb it! Super jealous of those who made it out there before 2019
That's how I feel about the pyramids in Mexico. As a child, I got to go in the Great Pyramid at Giza, I remember going into the black chamber with the sarcophagus inside, leaning over it to peer in. The most vivid memory is the scent of old stone, being in the dark for a long time, but very unlike anything natural, such as Carlsbad Caverns (I live in New Mexico)
I climbed Ayers Rock in 1976 as a 15 year old
You can still go there, just can't climb it.
Dude where are you getting your info? I climbed the myan ruins in 2010.
You’re a criminal !!
I’m not scared of snakes, but I have heard of Snake Island and you wouldn’t get me to go there ever. I’m not into suicide missions!
Glad to say that I was able to climb to the top of chichen itza back in 2005.
If you want to see a North Sentinel Island you can visit, go to Chicago.
Heard Island is not precisely "pristine", unless you were only referring to the absence of invasive species. There are ruins on the island from sealing activities in the late 1800s. At least two sets are visible in Google Maps satellite view.
You can't go to Diego Garcia because of what's under the surface of the water not above it.
My 2 go to places would be 1. Sentinal Island. 2. Snake Island. :)
You will be shot to your death by Indian Navy
Uluru rock paintings are at least 17000 + years old according to experts. Not 10000 years old.
