    What’s amazing is some people can look at these old structures and could care less about the past civilization.
    It’s going to take a miracle if mankind survives this reset in progress. The old civilization was obviously intelligent and got wiped out.

      You are right that past civilizations were more advanced. We are at the iron and miry clay feet of the "Statue of Stone" described in the Book of Daniel. Mankind has reached the "end of the line" in this world.

    It was just yesterday I watched a ghost investigation at a Ohio (i think) Prison where the guide said;
    Prisoners built this section of the Prison
    as she stood near the perfect masonry. 😮
    I wish more people had critical thinking skills.
    Why were the Prisons built like castles ? What do we build nowadays?

    I look for a new post from you every day. I have been with you since your first videos and it’s cool to see the channel grow. After watching Scranton I would love for you to do more on small towns. It’s as fascinating as the large cities. With your narrative, buildings and the census. Keep exposing any city that is worthy.

    hello sir great video!... at 17:21 if you pause the video and look at the arch way......really look at the arch and inside the arch..... the arch is definitely made of red bricks but when you look at the inside of the arch it has that "stone" look.....I think the arch is entirely red brick and they used some type of fake stone concrete...... geo-polymer.....whatever you want to call it and coated the bricks making it look like stone.....there are many spots in this video where it appears that there are random bits of stone over top of bricks etc and not where it was built over but where it looks like the rest of the "fake stone" wall covering has broken away leaving small bits that look like stone blocks on covering bricks...... It really looks to me like they use alot of different ways to cover brick structures ..... imo to hide the sheer size and immense nature of these buildings........ this video has lots of spots where it looks like it was damaged and people just jammed any rocks etc to fill holes so that makes it tougher to figure out too

    Another great post proving that we have many centuries of vast human intellect and skill all around us but no longer with us. There is nothing new under the sun. Just look at the automobiles from the 1940's and 50's compared to today's. Does anyone here really believe that anyone is going to care to even put a restored 2023 auto in a museum a hundred years from now? We keep asking ourselves how they did this rather than asking ourselves why we can't do this today.

    Please consider some lofi/chillhop for the main body of the soundtrack.
    The piano intro/outtro is beautiful!
    The more complex/intense classical stuff is great too, but the richness of the music detracts from the fascinating imagery, your interesting commentary, and the deductive thought process required to fathom these HUGE historical implications. Just my 2¢ though.
    Mostly- thank you for compiling and researching all this. I don’t mean to be a negative critic at all! Your style of photo presentation and avoidance of speculation or dogma is refreshing. Objectivity is key and you seem to have it!

I believe something did happen before the 19th century, and evidence exists, but I can't accept where you're going with this, because there's no guarantee the locations like small towns ever contained these buildings. Therefore, you should focus only on places where buildings still exist. It's an adjustment that strengthens the argument rather than weakening it.
