- Legend tells that somewhere in South America there is a great city of gold, El Dorado, a fabulously rich and sophisticated kingdom that was once home to thousands of people living deep in the Amazon jungle. To most people it was just a legend. But for British explorer, Colonel Percy Fawcett, it was real. Convinced he knew the location of this lost world, he spent years searching for it.

This should be named the Life and times of Percy Fawcett, there is very little in it related to archeology.
True. But they didn't claim it does. They used the title of the original film maker. This channel just contracts with the copyright holder to be able to use the film.
The lost city of Z was one of the greatest films I’ve ever watched. Told the story of the lost city so well, and the acting was phenomenal. 10/10 definitely recommend
Is it a movie, or a documentary? TYIA
There is a movie of this?
@@loraweems8712 it is technically a movie but the movie is about the documented life of Percy fawcett and his son hunting for the lost city of z.
It’s beautifully written and the cast/acting is top notch.
The book is excellent. The movie was also very good. Called “The Story of Z”.
Thank you for not flooding this show with advertisements every 10 mins. Makes the show sooo much better. 😊❤
I find it interesting that all the clues that told him to turn back or stop the exploration and yet he continued to do it. It's interesting how people willingly search for things but sometimes those things should not be found.
Because they don’t exist.
O0o0o0o0 it's a Jeff battle!
@@autotek7930 Haaa! True!
A battle to the jeff
I am actually more impressed with the guide, it tools them so many days and hardship in exploration yet the guide can run up and down as if a breeze to deliver written news… the guide probably know the place even better than anyone else
Which is always the case, of course. They do deserve great credit though, most especially the mountain guides in dangerous terrain.
And more than others, the Sherpas on Mount Everest. They frequently get injured and killed, so that rich tourists with inflated egos can see the top, and their families pay very dearly for it.
Wow way to point out obvious. The guide know more than others crazy
It was a classic tactic of native tribes to tell explorers that what they’re looking for is in a far off direction.
Just to lead them away.
Great episode and amazing soundtrack. Nice work Mooch.
The idea that Western explorers are responsible for the death of this civilization has always been weird to me, as they already reported a declining civilization with abandoned cities from the very beginning, and then I'm talking about the locals who gave this information to the explorers causing the desire for exploration by these explorers who'd be later be blamed for the death of the civilization they were exploring based on the "we're the last of a great civilization" information from the locals.
The hubris of thinking that our modern methods must be the best, and that our ancestors couldn't have innovated better than us
North !!!! Love John !!!!
Wonderful documentary about that lost ancient civilization (El Dorado)legend, sharing by an excellent ( Timeline) channel.
5:59 what a face, those eyes.... extraordinary
Great video! I was enthralled and sad when it was over. Thank you.
I liked the history, the story at the end 😮 I really enjoyed the videos of the Amazon‼️💥🌎
Great documentary on past large civilizations of South America. We have been discovering more and more remarkable evidences of causeways, trading btwn areas, agricultural attempts. It won’t surprise me that we will find Amazon societies that excited centuries, even millennia ago! 👍🥰
I highly recommend Aguirre, Wrath of God; incredible film ❤🎉
I always enjoyed this series.
Great work
The Amazon soil blows my mind. Someone figured it out and it can’t be replicated. We can pay a little more for steaks. Protect the jungle
Poor Percy ..
He died chasing his dream. I don't have any sorrow about that. If we can accept that fact that we will all die, we can then realize that it's how we live that matters. He lived pursing shaping his own destiny, and met the same end that we all will. I don't feel sorry for him. I admire him. We should all be so lucky.
@@Davivd2I admire him too. Well said mate 👍🏻
Yes indeed! Very well said! To many people, a more sedentary life is not worth living.
@@Davivd2
“We should all be so lucky”
If you consider being eaten by cannibals lucky.🤦♂️
Great documentary, i dont understand how they knew about what happened at the campsite, or what he wrote in his letters to his wife, if they were never found. how did this info get out. or did i miss something.
He had runners taking messages back to civilization periodically
I haven't watched it yet, but from watching a lifetime of these things, I imagine they used a lot of what is called "creative license".
Most likely, Riley’s foot got too bad to travel.
Percy left the two in order to seek help from hostile natives.
He never made it back.
And the 2 died, or were found and killed as well.
And no mention of the lidar study’s which basically discover a bunch of Amazon cities?
i thought one of the conquistadors said he sailed up the amazon, seen a "city of gold", came back, told europe, they went back, and they couldnt find it. not even the city (because the people died from disease and the jungle swallowed up whatever visible city you could see from the river) and they called him a fraud.
why was this not included. also who was this guy i cant google find him. help.
Keep in mind how many cities are overgrown with jungle vines and abandoned over the centuries.
Where is Percy Fawcett Lost camera that was found in the Amazon rainforest maybe where the Lost City of Z Gold site, their was Percy Fawcett camera has ancient civilizations pictures was put on the internet like last year or years ago
I've nvr seen eye linds that big my bad 😢
Might be an invisible in the invisible like picture in the picture.
Explore Golgumbaz Deccan india
Nah they had a chief that would cover himself in gold dust. They have also found gold trinkets in the river. It is still out there or someone found it and said nothing.
The quest of the golden colored corn. Eaten.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Colonel Percy Fawcett is a great man cuh!! a great man! you better respect cuh!!! or else
One of the cities is saposedly in Utah in the canyons but it's never been found its called qui veira if I spelled that right
What does "saposedly" mean?
More information and backstory here of Col. Percy Fawcett that hasn't been told for 80+ years of historical documentation and presentation
I reckon it was a giant ant 🐜 that got him in the end
The Terra Pretta and the wisdom of the native people of Amazonian is worth all the gold in the world ...but modern man has no means of understanding such treasure.
It was in the Indiana Jones movie the kingdom of the crystal skull😅
Supposedly there is 13 crystall skulls I think 5 or so have been found around the world. They have no idea how they were made
It's not a city of gold. It is a place of gold. Not a city a place where the gold is found
This video needs more ads.
El Dorado is in Sri lanka , king ravanas golden lanka , its stated in ramayan
I love ramayan noodles.
If he "knew the location", why did he spend years looking for it? 😂
Think poor old Percy must of over indulged in the local flora, seeing a city of gold wouldn't be the only thing you'd see.
Its in a mountain ⛰️
They found it.
The first mass extermination of natives correspomds with first contact with scandinavians and their diseases. Everywhere there is evidence of tribal migrations and abandonment around the same period

Am I the only one who sees the glaring contradiction in this dumb sentence?
Couldn't watch much further than 3.30, after the 'conquest' of South America was described as romantic. And a bit further on, the indigenous tribes described as 'an area crawling with dangerous locals'.
South America is on par with North America, and Australia, for the genocide and subjugation of the indigenous people, which should be viewed as one of the most shameful episodes in human history.
But apparently the search for treasure makes it all OK.

The OP has given us great food for thought here. It's not ok, but that's not what this guy was doing, not in any way.
He’s describing how the Explorer felt in that time period…
Calm down and get off your virtue-signalling horse.
Terra Preta - it's called compost. Probably forbidden now because of biological/ecological/whateverological rules, but it's good stuff if you get it right.
No, no, it's magic black soil.
Wait what. He went alone & then just tured around & caught a boat too ? Wtf 😊😅
The genuine Indiana Jones.
El Dorado = KGF
I guess $5000 was a lot of money back then?
If it existed, we wouldve found it by now
I do not believe el dorado is real...however Atzlan did, and it was in bolivia...
I found it I found it. I know where it's at. I found the place the secret I found it..
well, no one has found it yet.
Lidar has proven that he was correct. A series of cities intertwined by highways connecting them and a capital city.
This was home to an Ancient Civilization and as advanced as were the other areas in Central and South America. Advanced evidence found in the Terapratta, Terrace Gardens, vast plants that were planted by man rather than nature, the Forest was planted, Earthquake resistant building techniques, Megalithic Building, and more, the man was accurate and I suspect his journals would be filled with information far more accurate than the "Mainstream Academia" belief based "19th Century Theory based Paradigm and Linear Timeline".
Minds that exercise Freedom of Thoughts, that are Fully Open, free of predetermined Beliefs, Theories, Opinions, are the Authentic Academics who are truly enjoying the Explorations and making the Discoveries.
I hope their experience was fulfilling and they made their transitions into Nonphysical with ease and peace. I also hope his wife and their families were able to find a secure comfort and harmony in time.
His fortitude and inspired Explorations are truly a timeless worthiness example for others.

This is generally well done, but like many of the videos on this channel, the music drives me nuts! It's much too dramatic and much too loud. So many documentaries are wrecked by this. The editors must have been on amphetamines or cocaine. The show is almost unwatchable due to the constant, overly dramatic, and LOUD music ! ! !

It's not in South America, it's in North America in the Grand Canyon.
It all started with George rr martin😂😂
My love for ancient history began!!❤
This sttory has been described and written on Greek mythology, then , more tthan sixty years ago, to be honest with you, I turn 74 years, Encyclopedia Americaner, Japanese Encyclopedia, botg of them is out of dated, they had pualished sixty years ago, sixty years has passed after that, novility has been discovered and the truth has been availed.
If you want to discover the riddles, why don't you do it by yourself?
Don't get involved someone else,something, they have been very bothered , annoyed by your cheap selfish, greedy ambition.
He was just ridiculous, idiot, simpleton.just failure.
Read Four Books and Five classics of Confusiasm
for ethical vewpoint.
At last, thanks for your great footage, very enlightened.
Keep taking the pills

Explorers, adventurers, thrillseekers, daredevils - always middle-aged and always men. I wonder why...
