This was heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time mate, a story masterfully told. You keep going deeper and deeper with your films and I can't get enough... 👌💪

@@MrBignick88 Thats the thing, the Japanese saw death as honorable and would rather die than give up, if they didnt drop the bombs many think that millions couldve died.

I visited Hiroshima about 15 years ago and it's true, it's very eye opening. I left the museum with a heavy heart and pretty drained. It was interesting to see the rest of the city as I only went there to visit the museum. That rooftop bar looked so awesome!! I'll have to go back someday.
I've read blogs from people that have visited and they've all said it's so surreal. It's good to see the city has grown and developed, but also important to remember its past. That spirit you speak of... wow. I can feel that through your video.
The introductions with the old footage were very interesting to see. The footage of the little bike was very sad to watch. It's definitely weird to see and think that under a hundred years the city completely transformed. It's really beautiful to see I guess. I really loved the quote you used " you should always remember the past". That just fitted perfectly.
Still can't believe the disaster that happened there... the tiny bicycle is heartbreaking. Your voiceover and presentation really gave this video the needed importance, inspiring really! Hiroshima is for sure on our bucket list now.
It's so sad to see the destruction that followed the bomb... The video was really well put together! There are many videos that talk about a place's history but the way this was done with the music, the voiceover and old clips, really gave me the feels which most people struggle to achieve. That shot of the old children's bike 😔 I agree, it is incredible how the city has bounced back. If you visited without knowing about it's past, you'd think it was a city just like any other. The story behind the cranes is so sad but beautiful!
this is really an eye opener... i like how you're videos are professionally made... its like you got a whole production team .. thank you for sharing :D
I haven't been here, and maybe never will. You're video was 'real enough' for me to feel the tension, the fear, horror and the anxiety. I do hope you are right, that a disastrous tragedy like this may never repeat itself.
I think you did a great job of capturing the beauty and history of this city. It can be tricky since Hiroshima has such an important message of history for us all but they are also a vibrant, thriving place now which is wonderful to explore and see in videos...hopefully one day we can visit for ourselves as well!
Beautifully narrated. Like with life, there's not many things which are all negative or all positive, so I'm glad to hear that despite the sad, painful memories of recent history, there's that positive energy to keep driving Hiroshima onto the future. A very respectful and touching video. 🙇
Great video! Seeing something once is better than hearing about it 1000 times. You captured the tragic cost of the event but determination and perseverance of the people so well. Amazing job!!!
Amazing storytelling, Ryan! The music, the pacing, the voice over, the editing, all worked beautifully - and the story at the end was a very moving way to end it. Awesome job!
i've always wanted to visit Hiroshima! such a tragic part of history there but its great to see how the people have rebuilt themselves and bounced back after those tragic events. i like how your choice of music brings the vibe on the history and events that took place there. great video once again!
I wish I had seen the paper crane memorial, how beautiful! I didn't have much time in Hiroshima but the Peace memorial park was so somber, it made a life long impression on me. Breaks my heart what happened there.
This was such a beautiful and moving video, Ryan. War is terrible and nobody wins. What a testament to the people of Hiroshima that they were able to pull themselves up again. But also such a sad tale about the paper cranes. I had heard about their significance but didn't know the fully story. You're right, this can never happen again. 💔
I have always said this Japanese are amazing. The way they bounced back from the war so well like no other country could is a testimony to the Japanese spirit, only if they were on the right side of the war could have probably avoided the bombing. FYI : I am not condoning Japanese war crimes during WW2 and I don’t disagree with America for nuking them either, I am merely showing my admiration of the fact that they have come a long way from WW2 and have distanced theme selves from their brutal past and rebuilt them from scratch. Don’t know why people are getting so riled up.
Japanese spirit? Like the bombing of Pearl Harbor? Like the Bataan death march? Like the rape of Nanking? Like using prisoners of war for target practice? Wonderful spirit.
@@r0a589 Well its justified. The first comment is saying japanese have a strong spirit, whereas they actually had no choice but to surrender and bounce back lol. Any country would do the same when they know they will get annihilated....
@@aaronhirschbein1715 I am Japanese. I'm sorry, but we can refute everything you say. As the famous "History is always written by the winner" says ... We can't understand it at all Unfortunately ... just because Japan lost the war Evil nations that demonize Japan and use their own war crimes and their own barbarism as scapegoats, as opposed to the people who rewrite history and benefit from the pride of their people even if they deny all of Japan's achievements. And what is very interesting is that they always saying, "In order to improve relations, you need to face history in Japan," I think it is a necessary word for those because they themselves do not face history who do not learn anything. They are victims distorted patriotism brainwashed by own Government-led, which can hardly be called education but those who were planted with anti-Japanese their thought Sometimes unconditionally becomes a dangerous perpetrator to the Japanese. Is it because of the sympathy of anti-Japanese propaganda not a historical documentary movies that make own country look beautiful? And the world's academia and major media It's just a promotional agency that believes in and advertises the propaganda of a "victim-centric approach" rather than a "fact-centric approach." Humanitarians are using it to satisfy their desires in the name of justice of Fake human rights activists think only their own pockets for Money-making business. It became a hot topic in South Korea and caused disappointment for supporters. It may be unacceptable to Koreans, but Japanese history researchers have pointed out this for a long time, and it was the common sense of most Japanese. And, until now, the left-wing Japanese researchers on which the Korean side was based have all lost the trial. In the end, the choice to translate they says right-wing ... that is, the historical views of conservative speechists into Hangul, to have a positive impact on the new perception of Korean history began. Many may find it difficult and time-consuming for them to accept the facts because the stories they believed in were broken. 『Convictions are more dangerous enemies of truth than lies.』 by Friedrich Nietzsche Academia and major media around the world have only negative views on Japanese people who say, "Revisionism, far right"Label it. However, historians should be "revisionist" in the first place. According to the left wing, it tends to be dangerous, Japanese Conservative speechist revealed, not far right Because, it was GHQ that rewrote the history of Japan and brainwashed it conveniently, made a folklore policy for Japanese people Mr. Abe's "breaking out of the postwar regime" is a natural feeling for the Japanese. and I hear that it is the left-wing side of cancel culture that has destroyed not just America, but all the beautiful Western culture and traditions. Finally, as a Japanese, Until now, I was surprised to introduce Japan so objectively because I knew only the historian's claim that it was natural for Japan to drop the atomic bomb. I would like to thank the video owners for their efforts. I was impressed. thank you. 😊
As expected, a beautifully created video. I love the narration and the story that you've put in to this video. Amazing job on this one! So much history and information. Two thumbs up :)
Man, you did a great job in covering the history but also showcase the beauty of today. It's great to see a beautiful come from such a hard time. It's great to see one person impact still making a difference today with the paper cranes.
This is one of the places I have visited and it was so interesting and inspiring. Hiroshima was one of the two cities that were bombed. My father told me one of his friends survived the bombing, but had radiation on his body. He had to go somewhere really safe out of the radiation. Go to Nagasaki when you get a chance
This is heartbreaking. This gave me goosebumps. If the people who died in atom bomb incident were alive, they would have been enjoying their lives and enjoying modern things and devices
Such a great film, your narration, story telling and mood setting are top quality. It's so good to see this city full of life after such a tumultuous history. Thanks again for sharing.
I hated history in high school. But then I went to Hawaii and saw Pearl Harbor. I lived in California and now in New Hampshire seeing Paul Revers home and Bunker Hill. Would love to to see this live.
Great video...A real piece of film making. Great shots, editing and very well written. The paper crane store is a very nice ending. I'm looking forward to watching more of your travels.
We finally found the time to watch your latest--hopefully you can forgive us, your biggest fans, for the delay! 🙃😄 Very well done, per usual! That tricycle speaks volumes. It's uplifting to see that life is generally flourishing there. Did you try the dish at 1:49? The paper cranes are really cool! Where did you and Emma drop them to, was it inside or outside the building?
Go Travel On The Cheap thank you guys ❤️ yes we did (a few times actually), it's Hiroshima Okonomoyaki - which is a savoury pancake. It's amazing! It's an indoor art installation that you drop the cranes into. You can see it from the outside too 😊
It’s so heartbreaking and awe inspiring and gives me goosebumps and tears and happiness in my heart all at the same time. I’m very sad that post 2020 travel will be different and travelling will be harder. We cannot allow another ‘Hiroshima’ to happen. We need to come together-not kill each other
You should always remember the past. There is also history in the eastern Asia and the Pacific that pre-dates 6 August 1945. My heart goes out to all the victims of war, and all who still suffer it.
What a touching video, especially with the paper cranes story at the end. You really got me. I like how you made your story into a circle with the same begin and end shots.
If you’re in Hiroshima, you got to check out Hotel Xcell ! It’s in the heart of the entertainment district and has jacuzzis, sauna and lounge on the roof !
I was born on 6th Augusthorrible i wascmade to watch it in RE id been in accident etc.it seriously affected me.i can not deal with leaving peope behind.
There was actually very little radiation at Hiroshima for this reason: When the Little Boy exploded, it exploded a little more than a 1/4 mile above the city Because of that, its fireball never hit the ground, If it had, a vast amount of radioactive material would have been created & spewed around.
Being at the museum is really eye-opening experience. Nothing can really prepare me for the story of behind that museum. I did feel quite sorry and depress after the museum visit. If anyone planning to go the museum. Then I suggest, please try to do something more uplifting after doing the museum visit.
We where told that the "half life" of even a small atomic device exploded would be around 500 years and that no living thing can survive in such a place during that time. I also hear that wildlife in Chernobyl is thriving . I think we are owed some long overdue explanations.
I dont understand is that how is Chernobyl still radioactive but Hiroshima isn't? I thought radioactivity lasts for over 100ndrds of years. Or so i heard over and over form scientist
Syed Ilyas 2 main reasons: the energy of the explosion in Chernobyl was over 400 times more powerful than Hiroshima. Secondly, the A-bomb exploded in the sky above Japan, not on the ground.
I've been there, the bombsite,the park and the museum-i was just sweating profusely throughout But Hiroshima is actually very beautiful, my trip there was vey memorable cuz it's actually vey peaceful there, and it's where I first saw snow myself
so how or why is it that there is n oradiation anymore ? shouldn't there be deadly radiation for at least 50 - 100 - 200 ?? years ? idk :x , rebuilding after 1 day ? what about the Fallout ?
Great video! We'll be visiting Hiroshima in a few days and will use your links in the description as a guide. You should consider going to Cambodia and making a video similar to this about the genocide led by Pol Pot
Wow, I had no idea that so much of what was left after the bomb is still there. The history of this place alone makes it a must-see, but you've really captured a lot of Hiroshima. Hiroshima's tourism bureau should be paying you to make this their "visit Hiroshima" video. Great job. What's ironic is that our next video is also going to be about visiting a city that was mercilessly bombed to pieces.
Do you think the outline of the person with the cane is still on the bank steps? Or did they maybe remove it to move on? You really covered a lot this video was great!
It was not England that started the opium war against China, but the international financial capital, Jardine Matheson Company of the Red Shield.Japan's Meiji Restoration was a farce between the British and French international financial capital for financial control.They set up a civil war, loaned weapons and funds to both sides, and imposed financial control on the side that made the winning side bear huge debts.That is why Grabbers from Matheson & Co. were dispatched to Nagasaki, Japan.Japan's aggression against China and its annexation of Korea were also a strategy to control Asia using Japan as an international financial capital and a countermeasure against Russia.That is why the Anglo-Japanese Alliance was signed.International financial capital injected huge amounts of capital and know-how into Japan so that Japan could advance overseas, and forced Japan to undergo rapid modernization while drenched in debt.This led to the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War.It is impossible for Japan, which has no natural resources, to invade on its own.World War I consisted primarily of British and French international financial capital attacking Germany and Italy.Because of financial control, Japan had to obey even in Asia.Since Japan would be deprived of Asia's enormous resources and assets forever, it resisted en route to liberation.So Japan made an alliance with Germany and Italy.So American Jews went mad and pressured Japan to go to war.In order to participate in the war while knowing in advance, the United States neglected the attack on Pearl Harbor and appealed that we were the victims.That's why Neumann and the Jews went mad and developed the atomic bomb to drop it on Japan from the beginning.They experimented on humans with different types of atomic bombs.After the war, they claimed they had no intention of dropping it to Japan.Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which has long been full of Koreans, has been involved in the inadequacy of Japan's declaration of war, appealing that Japan is vicious and leaking various information such as Pearl Harbor to the United States.The US counterattacked Japan with the Soviet Union, which it would later destroy, and brainwashed China and Korea into thinking that Japan was a vicious aggressor and perpetrator.China and Korea fabricate history and conduct anti-Japanese education in order to get money from Japan.China sabotages the Asian Liberation War, covers up its malicious sabotage, and still fakes the genocide and cruelty of the Japanese military.In the annexation, Japan abolished the corrupt royal palace, democratized, and properly maintained the country, but Korea still claims that if Japan loses, it is a victim, and still tries to steal money with all kinds of fabrications.Japanese who tried to liberate Asia were executed.
It is incomprehensible how something like this can happen. How can a country drop a nuclear bomb on another!? How does that country get away with it? We think these kind of videos are your best, increase in tempo, story building and the narrative. Great job! Looking forward to the next one!
Timezone Junkies it's really hard to get your head around the scale of it,.. Thanks so much guys, glad you liked it - been a while since I've done done a film like this!
Its easy to drop a bomb on a country when Japan is pillaging and raping Asia. Suggest your ready up on the Rape of Nanking and Comfort Women and whole Sino-Japanese War and you will realize why the bomb was necessary.
@@OneShotAdventures Awesome, thanks! I've heard of the A7S many times now, it seems to be THE camera for amateurs and professionals alike. It's pretty great...
Awesome story. Miyajima is amazing! And the museum was fantastic. ..the cranes... The flame the burns until all nuclear weapons are gone...man I miss that place. So well done Ryan.
Beautiful video. I heard a lot about Hiroshima, but if I never heard what has happened and then send me to the city - I'd never expect it... well, obviously I would at some point, but in the footage, it looks like it never happened. Like a normal city. Does it make sense? 😅 Lovely story about the papercranes!
Ok, I never want to walk down stairs again. Why can’t we just slide? The crane story is so sad and poignant. I didn’t realize they are still experiencing an increase in cancer rates to this day.
Of all of the places I've been, this place truly stands out.
You can still see the burn marks on the side of the dome.
Gives you chills..

Apart from the one ruined building, you really wouldn't know anything had happened there. Definitely surreal

Monty & Cherry Journey thank you!
There was actually very little radiation at Hiroshima for this reason: When the Little Boy exploded, it exploded a little more than a 1/4 mile above the city Because of that, its fireball never hit the ground, If it had, a vast amount of radioactive material would have been created & spewed around.
Well shot video my dude!! Love the way you film things. What camera do you have?
Thanks! I have a Sony a7s
Heart wrenching
Almost made me cry
I've always wondered if there might be hot spots like at Chernobyl.
So what about background radiation levels?
Being at the museum is really eye-opening experience. Nothing can really prepare me for the story of behind that museum. I did feel quite sorry and depress after the museum visit.
If anyone planning to go the museum. Then I suggest, please try to do something more uplifting after doing the museum visit.
We where told that the "half life" of even a small atomic device exploded would be around 500 years and that no living thing can survive in such a place during that time. I also hear that wildlife in Chernobyl is thriving . I think we are owed some long overdue explanations.
I dont understand is that how is Chernobyl still radioactive but Hiroshima isn't? I thought radioactivity lasts for over 100ndrds of years. Or so i heard over and over form scientist
Syed Ilyas 2 main reasons: the energy of the explosion in Chernobyl was over 400 times more powerful than Hiroshima. Secondly, the A-bomb exploded in the sky above Japan, not on the ground.
Man this was a great emotional video that made me feel tons of emoti- Aaaaand then along comes a tik tok ad thanks alot google
Oh dear...
I've been there, the bombsite,the park and the museum-i was just sweating profusely throughout
But Hiroshima is actually very beautiful, my trip there was vey memorable cuz it's actually vey peaceful there, and it's where I first saw snow myself
Thank you.
so how or why is it that there is n oradiation anymore ? shouldn't there be deadly radiation for at least 50 - 100 - 200 ?? years ? idk :x , rebuilding after 1 day ? what about the Fallout ?
Ever been to Pearl Harbor? It's pretty eye opening.
I'm sure, but we're talking about hugely different scales of loss here
Heartbreaking story but also a lesson to our world leaders, that every decision they make effects us, but why they care anyways
Great video and voice over. I had heard the paper crane story before. Great story and amazing the progress the city made after such a devasting event.
It's a beautiful city, probably my favourite that I visited in Japan
Very cool topic to cover. I think it is important to visit such places. it's great to see them rebuild so strongly. Touching about the paper cranes.
I think so too, it definitely gives you so much perspective
Great video! We'll be visiting Hiroshima in a few days and will use your links in the description as a guide. You should consider going to Cambodia and making a video similar to this about the genocide led by Pol Pot
Thanks so much. I have been to Cambodia, but only spent a week in Siem Riep. I've been meaning to go back soon...
inspiring 👐💚
Who else just got this random question in their head and ended up at this video
Wow, I had no idea that so much of what was left after the bomb is still there. The history of this place alone makes it a must-see, but you've really captured a lot of Hiroshima. Hiroshima's tourism bureau should be paying you to make this their "visit Hiroshima" video. Great job. What's ironic is that our next video is also going to be about visiting a city that was mercilessly bombed to pieces.
Adventure Everywhere thanks Brian, maybe I should send it to them! Wow which city is that? Somewhere in Europe by chance?
@@OneShotAdventures Can't tell, but I'll give you a clue. Listen: Billy Pilgrim has come unstuck in time.
Adventure Everywhere ah ha! Think I've got it - great reference haha
@@OneShotAdventures What's funny is I teach that reference at my university...
Do you think the outline of the person with the cane is still on the bank steps? Or did they maybe remove it to move on?
You really covered a lot this video was great!
Less than eighty years and safe to live in !
It was not England that started the opium war against China, but the international financial capital, Jardine Matheson Company of the Red Shield.Japan's Meiji Restoration was a farce between the British and French international financial capital for financial control.They set up a civil war, loaned weapons and funds to both sides, and imposed financial control on the side that made the winning side bear huge debts.That is why Grabbers from Matheson & Co. were dispatched to Nagasaki, Japan.Japan's aggression against China and its annexation of Korea were also a strategy to control Asia using Japan as an international financial capital and a countermeasure against Russia.That is why the Anglo-Japanese Alliance was signed.International financial capital injected huge amounts of capital and know-how into Japan so that Japan could advance overseas, and forced Japan to undergo rapid modernization while drenched in debt.This led to the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War.It is impossible for Japan, which has no natural resources, to invade on its own.World War I consisted primarily of British and French international financial capital attacking Germany and Italy.Because of financial control, Japan had to obey even in Asia.Since Japan would be deprived of Asia's enormous resources and assets forever, it resisted en route to liberation.So Japan made an alliance with Germany and Italy.So American Jews went mad and pressured Japan to go to war.In order to participate in the war while knowing in advance, the United States neglected the attack on Pearl Harbor and appealed that we were the victims.That's why Neumann and the Jews went mad and developed the atomic bomb to drop it on Japan from the beginning.They experimented on humans with different types of atomic bombs.After the war, they claimed they had no intention of dropping it to Japan.Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which has long been full of Koreans, has been involved in the inadequacy of Japan's declaration of war, appealing that Japan is vicious and leaking various information such as Pearl Harbor to the United States.The US counterattacked Japan with the Soviet Union, which it would later destroy, and brainwashed China and Korea into thinking that Japan was a vicious aggressor and perpetrator.China and Korea fabricate history and conduct anti-Japanese education in order to get money from Japan.China sabotages the Asian Liberation War, covers up its malicious sabotage, and still fakes the genocide and cruelty of the Japanese military.In the annexation, Japan abolished the corrupt royal palace, democratized, and properly maintained the country, but Korea still claims that if Japan loses, it is a victim, and still tries to steal money with all kinds of fabrications.Japanese who tried to liberate Asia were executed.
It is incomprehensible how something like this can happen. How can a country drop a nuclear bomb on another!? How does that country get away with it? We think these kind of videos are your best, increase in tempo, story building and the narrative. Great job! Looking forward to the next one!
Timezone Junkies it's really hard to get your head around the scale of it,.. Thanks so much guys, glad you liked it - been a while since I've done done a film like this!
Its easy to drop a bomb on a country when Japan is pillaging and raping Asia. Suggest your ready up on the Rape of Nanking and Comfort Women and whole Sino-Japanese War and you will realize why the bomb was necessary.
This is an incredible insight into Hiroshima today. I thought the filming and lighting were really beautiful. May I ask what cameras/gear you used?
Thank you. For this video, I used a Sony A7s, but now I used a Sony A7iii
@@OneShotAdventures Awesome, thanks! I've heard of the A7S many times now, it seems to be THE camera for amateurs and professionals alike. It's pretty great...
@@dollofshadows1703 the original a7s is a little old now, but it’s great! Sony stuff generally isn’t cheap, but it’s good quality
Awesome story. Miyajima is amazing! And the museum was fantastic. ..the cranes... The flame the burns until all nuclear weapons are gone...man I miss that place. So well done Ryan.
Brother Dunne thank you my friend!
Beautiful video. I heard a lot about Hiroshima, but if I never heard what has happened and then send me to the city - I'd never expect it... well, obviously I would at some point, but in the footage, it looks like it never happened. Like a normal city. Does it make sense? 😅 Lovely story about the papercranes!
Rob's Quest definitely! Take away the museum and the peace park and you probably wouldn't know
Ok, I never want to walk down stairs again. Why can’t we just slide?
The crane story is so sad and poignant. I didn’t realize they are still experiencing an increase in cancer rates to this day.
Yeah that whole building was really cool!
Safe, how safe? Because we are going in early next year.
Beautiful city
Think about the kid's who went through that traumatic experience and the suffering. How could you live with that?
I’m afraid that it will happen again. We never learn from the past.
Only reason for it to happen is cause of someone causing a war and japan joining
It's still better than my City.
its 2022 and now we are here afraid that it will happen again :o
