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.

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.

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.

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.

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 ! ! !

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.

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. ✨✨✨

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.
