I agree! Nicholas was only human, and besides , he didn't really want the job because he knew he wash't ready! That does not give people the right to brutally murder innocent children for their father's mistakes!
I'm glad that the mystery of Anastasia is solved. She and her brother can rest in peace, now that their remains have been properly buried with their family
There are WAY 2 many lies and lives ruined from this global conspiracy. 100 + years of ritual abuse is much worse than the events they want people 2 believe. Tomfoolery is still afoot.
No matter what the Czar did to his people, he didn't deserve to die the way he did , and his innocent children surely did not deserve to die in that way either!
He was actually a very loving man he tried to be as fair as he could to his people and was devoted to his family and to God, he wasn't ready to be czar, and the families 'personal purse' was always empty because they spent their own personal money for the betterment of Russia.
@@hannahskeldon7944 the revolution could have been avoided, but with Nicholas at the helm it was inevitable. He was a grossly inept and bloody ruler. Read more.
From what I have read, Nicholas II was a good husband and father, but a terrible ruler. He never wanted to be Tsar in the first place, and I think that played the part in his inability to rule. I know many will disagree with me, and that's fine. I'm not here to argue, just to give my own personal opinion. The Romanov family did not deserve to die like that. Especially the children. But, I understand why it was done. There couldn't be any chances of a Romanov heir surviving and regaining power. It was cruel, but i think, back then, it was considered necessary.
I agree, a good and soft man in the wrong position and in the wrong time. Nikolai was never the blood thirsty tyran of the communist propaganda. I hope this family now rest in peace and the history (the true history) rehabilitate them and point the real murders.
The forensic anthropologist here, Dr. Anthony Falsetti, just transferred to my university last semester, and as a forensic science major I cannot wait to take his forensic anthropology class!
Even the children of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI were not killed as these poor children were. This was excruciatingly brutal and disgusting. They did nothing.
When the revolution started, only two of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI's 4 children were alive: the dauphin and Marie Therese. The dauphin was left to die in the Tower of the Temple and their daughter was left alone for a few years after her family was executed... not the Romanovs nor the Bourbon children had easy lives in the revolutions
@@manuela_esse no, two of Marie Antoinettes kids were dead. It is likely their remaining son was murdered, through neglect and they tried the same with their daughter to.
@@jamiemohan2049 two children were alive at the outbreak of the revolution: the Dauphin who died during the revolution at the Tower of the Temple because of neglect, and Marie Therese who later was set free. The first dauphin died right before the Etats Generals and the last daughter died a few months after the birth, way before the revolution. So yes, my statement is correct since I clearly stated "when the revolution started"
@@manuela_esse then your statement is wrong ....as you said the youngest daughter was dead way before the revolution. That doesn't equate to four of the kids being alive. I like many would view an 'outbreak' as the start of something. The elder boy was dead. Only two kids were alive when the revolution legitimately took off.
Anastasia was founf in 1991 when they discovered all the bodies. The body that was missing was Maria's. You can see that when they've done the facial reconstruction, Anastasia is totally there, Maria is not
Carol Tamion in fact Alexis and María or Anastacia were found in 2007 in a grave near by the one of the rest of the family. See journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0004838.

@11EmoPrincess That's an interesting thought in it's own way. And when I imagine how their remains have been so disrespected over the past century (mutilated, buried, dug up, re-buried, dug up again and then touched/handled by scientists and a bunch of other people), kinda makes my skin crawl. . . .
I think that is very broutal to take in your hands a human life and judge if he/she has to die , I believe that the best way is that they had to exiled them but not to kill them.
Because Romanoff were very popular in Russia, despite communist propaganda..... the so called "october revolution" was only a coup d'etat made by a gang of criminals and psychopaths.
I remember seeing Anastasia on Ice when I was younger . I loved that movie , but I always thought it was done by Disney , but apparently it was done by FOX. But it may been aired on Disney way back .
@tmwalkerm Okay...? Anne Anderson wasn't Anastasia though lol. Regardless of what Prince Philip's DNA said, the key point of what you said is that we was a distant relative. Anastasia was who Anderson was trying to impersonate, who just happened to be a direct relative. If she has been Anastasia, the DNA comparisons to varying Romanov family members would have matched. Especially in the test they did comparing Anderson's DNA to the other confirmed Romanov bodies they found.
@pockkytinaaxD The cartoon was not a Disney movie. Common mistake. I can also see why the confusion is there. Pocahontas was based on the real Pocahontas, but Disney did not tell her story accurately. The cartoon did not tell Anastasia's story accurately. They both have sad stories and are worth knowing about.
Of course its not accurate why do you think Russians dont have a problem with it, the cartoon doesnt mention the revolution at all, and the real Anastasia wasnt a child when it started.
I've always been so intererested in the Romanovs. Started reading about then when I was like...10-13. Most likely 13. They still fascinate me to this day (and I'm almost 21).
Now, you are 33 and I am from India. I am 21 now, I also started reading about romonovs brutal murder. It fascinates me also. Even though, I am Indian but I feel sorry for romonovs
@coltmanm And their story is actually kind of sad. The entire family and their companions completely annihilated, just like that, and having your body destroyed even after being shot to death, that's just horrible.
I don't know why they did not Anastasia a Disney princess. However, I've heard that among many reasons which caused Disney to forget Anastasia,this movie was not made by Disney is one of them.
It’s more likely that the missing bodies where Alexei and Maria, not Alexei and Anastasia. Worse yet, the last two bodies found are still not buried with their family.
The British Government of weak King George refused to allow the Romanov come in exile in England. They rather see them dead then have the British people see anymore monarchs who lost their throne. Cold blooded relatives as usual seeking their own interest at anytime. They are just ordinary people. No mystery no magic Just people like all others filled with faults ND self seeking tricks
@sydbob16 The footage at 3:10 is actually part of an old movie. The one in the snow is from a reporting about the winter during WWI. Surely filming was expensive in those times but the news agencies had many reporters filming the war all over Europe.
I am not trying to annoy people. I just know that I watched these movies as a kid and I can remember my shock when I fond out that they were based on true storys that diddn't end on a happily ever after.
@ashlh1 (I'm not sure if this answers your question, but here goes)I first saw the animated 'Anastasia' movie back when I was like 8 or 9. At that time,I didn't know that the movie was (very loosely) based on a real person.The movie made it seem like Anastasia ended up living happily ever after. In 2006,I happened to discover a page online that told the truth: Anastasia was murdered along with her family when she was only 17 years old.Most movies about her were based on rumors about her survival
Not only did the Romanov's die that night but Nicholas II's brother Micheal also was killed a year after. However, their are several Romanovs alive today and they all go by Duke, Duchess, Prince, and Princess all throughout Europe and Russia and their highly respected especially those that live in Russia.
There were actually 13 victims killed that night: TSAR/EMPEROR/KING NIKOLAI ALEXANDROVICH ROMANOVA II, TSARINA/EMPRESS/QUEEN ALEXANDRA FEODOROVNA ROMANOVA ( PRINCESS ALIX OF HESSY), TSAREVNAS/GRAND DUTCHESSES/PRINCESSES OLGA, TATIANA, MARIA, AND ANASTASIA NIKOLAEVNA ROMANOVA, GRAND DUKE/PRINCE/TSAREVICH ALEXEI NIKOLAVICH ROMANOVA, DR. YEVGENY ( EUGENE ) SEREYEVICH BOTKIN, FOOTMAN ALEXEI YEGOROVICH TRUPP, ALEXANDRA'S CHAMBER MAID ANNA STEPANOVA DEMIDOVA, COOK IVAN MIKHAILOVICH KHARITONOV, ANASTASIA'S DOG JIMMY ROMANOVA, AND TATIANA'S DOG ORTIPO ROMANOVA. ALEXEI'S DOG JOY WAS THE SOLE SURVIVOR.
i find it kind of strange for the old vidoes (like the black and white vidoes taken from those days) im just curious as to why someone would be randomly standing near a mass herd of chaos and killing, like with the mob thing there @ 3:10. Then when they were videotaping the soldiers marching, its like freezing outside, why would you want to videotape a bunch of guys walking around? suely videotape was expensive back then.
If only King George agreed to take the children to Britain, they would have lived longer. Its a shame that he didn't even offer any help to Tsar Nicholas. Tsar Nicholas didn't even wanted to be a ruler in the first place. When he was abdicated, he wrote in his diary that he was relieved that he doesn't have huge responsibilities anymore and that he could focus on his family (or somth like that).
@doglover12345andfr You could try watching "Nicholas and Alexandra". But don't you think it's nice to imagine the happy outcome Anastasia, and her family, deserved? Then again I suppose the happy animated movie could be considered all the more painful when one contrasts it to the reality of the situation
I can't remember if I knew about the real Romanovs first or if I watched the animated film first. Either way, I've known about this since I was little. Sad? Yeah, it is.
I honestly believe the bones found in the second grave are those of Aleksey Nikolayevich and Anna Demidova. Nobody was really sure if it was Anna, but Yakov Yurovsky said he was certain that the woman put in the pile with Aleksey was indeed Anna Demidova, but also wasn't sure because the face was very disfigured. (The frontal part of Anna's skull was missing which matches the condition of her face) They originally were going to burn Alexandra and Aleksey together but chose Anna instead.
@GoddessOfYou27 Yup. The movie had practically nothing to do with what actually happened. It was a cute movie, but Rasputin(in real life) was the best friend of the family, and Anastasia was found in an unmarked grave with the rest of her family. After I learned about the history of what happened, the movie made no sense. :/
why were they exiled and put into house arrest?? and sorry to burst your bubble guys, but Anastasia or Maria's body was found buried else where and was discovered to have been dead since 1918. Her body was found a few years before this documentary was aired if the year of posting it on youtube is the same and when it was made
Anastasia was found with her sisters Olga and Tatiana along with two male servants Kharitinov and Trupp plus Anna Demidova and Nicholas and Alexandra. Marie and Alexis were buried together not far away. There were no survivors. The remains of Marie and Alexis remain unburied.
Yeah,that's what makes me sick.Kids don't ask to be born in the first place,least of all to deal with adult depravity and foibles.Similarly with animals,exploited to atone for human fuckups.
@doglover12345andfr I know this answer comes a little late, but have you ever seen Nicholas and Alexandra? It's very good (and as far as I know quite accurate) in my opinion. :)
So they weren't killed by a mean dark magician who hated the king? And Anastasia wasn't saved by a servant boy who lead her grandmother and her out through a servant's door? And she didn't end up falling love with that same boy years later?? Aww. ;D
hey, i think there is a need to check the grandmama's dna. as i researched the photos of anastacia, there are similarities from the photos posted by her granddaughter Caty Peterson.
@imjohnfreeman why yes i am a nerdling i love the movie Anastasia and you know why? it was the last video i watched with my grandmother before she died and she loved it to, so im proud to be a nerdling thank you verra much
or something. dreamworks made the film and fox distributed. it's easy to confuse, considering one of dreamworks' founders only started it as a disney rival when he couldn't become COO of disney. ºoº
@ruthiegirl123 I know right? I few years back when I first (accidentally) discovered the truth about the real Anastasia and her family. . .I think I was mentally traumatized for like a month . . .>_
I have a book telling the story of the Romanovs from the ruling of Alexander II, going into Tsar Nicholas and his romance with Princess Alix, the birth of each child and leading up to the speculation that Anastasia survived the murder.
+HBB Why would they take photos genius, if they were trying to hide the fact that they killed the royal family. If you were a killer, would you really want photographic evidence that the police can arrest you for? Where's the logic in that? They wanted no evidence to show that the Bolsheviks murdered them. Thus the cover up. They didn't want the Russian people or the Red army to come after them for the killings.
I agree! Nicholas was only human, and besides , he didn't really want the job because he knew he wash't ready! That does not give people the right to brutally murder innocent children for their father's mistakes!

did you know that the evil guy in that movie was based off of the man named Rusputin?
Wrong Anastasia. For those expecting Megre's Anastasia, this has nothing to do with the Ringing Cedars.
hey, i think there is a need to check the grandmama's dna. as i researched the photos of anastacia, there are similarities from the photos posted by her granddaughter Caty Peterson.
@imjohnfreeman why yes i am a nerdling i love the movie Anastasia and you know why? it was the last video i watched with my grandmother before she died and she loved it to, so im proud to be a nerdling thank you verra much
@emmalunajackson33 of course they were, they were labeled as martyers and saints, im sure they were buried under their church
or something. dreamworks made the film and fox distributed. it's easy to confuse, considering one of dreamworks' founders only started it as a disney rival when he couldn't become COO of disney. ºoº
@ruthiegirl123 what fantasy?
@ruthiegirl123 I know right? I few years back when I first (accidentally) discovered the truth about the real Anastasia and her family. . .I think I was mentally traumatized for like a month . . .>_
lmao i dont mean to laugh, or double post, but is that guy wearing a florida gators beanie?
Is voice overs all Peter Coyote does anymore? He seems to narrate everything...
yep. she was the tsarinas grandmother
huh??
dont get it??
is anastasia true??
Hence the difference between documentary and cartoon.
This is like Bones irl :)
@ILuvJaimy Also the grandmother went to Copenhagen, not Paris.
@Ermundos don't tell me you thought this was the Disney cartoon.....????
I hope that the monarchy will be restored!
My name is Anastasia and I'm 1/2 Russian
well i was watchin this show about the romanovs and a expert said it was impossible for the sisters to live even w/ the jewels in their clothsso
I have a book telling the story of the Romanovs from the ruling of Alexander II, going into Tsar Nicholas and his romance with Princess Alix, the birth of each child and leading up to the speculation that Anastasia survived the murder.
+HBB Why would they take photos genius, if they were trying to hide the fact that they killed the royal family. If you were a killer, would you really want photographic evidence that the police can arrest you for? Where's the logic in that?
They wanted no evidence to show that the Bolsheviks murdered them. Thus the cover up. They didn't want the Russian people or the Red army to come after them for the killings.
Grace Wada dont mind him,he hasnt had his meds when he commented here,lol!
