- Qin Shi Huang, the formidable first emperor of the Qin dynasty, who reigned from 221 to 210 BCE left behind a well guarded tomb inside a masoleum.Cracking open the tomb could unleash immediate dangers, as ancient accounts reveal. The tomb is equipped with deadly traps, mechanisms designed to defend against any intruder.
Tombs like this and Pyramids are illustrations of just how insane power drives humans
Extraterrestrials had influence as well .
@@raycatlin3554 convenient explanation to prove how stupid human beings we're back then so that we think we're so smart today we're in fact it is totally the opposite
Power?? I Could Care Less!!
you are right to a degree. the pyramid was used for power but not personal power. energetic power
You nailed it!
But the real story is twofold.
The amazing ability God gave to man.
And the power God has to shut it down when it gets out of control.
Like He did with Egypt, Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome.
They all go from ruling the world to ruins that people take selfie’s in front of.
It would be great if they could send cameras down there.
they easily could.
@@gingercholo they can't, As long as a small hole is opened in the tomb, air will enter and all the precious cultural relics inside will be destroyed. Just like the Terracotta Warriors, when they were first unearthed, they were all colorful, but when they came into contact with the air, all the colors disappeared instantly. Therefore, due to the current immature technology, excavating the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang will damage precious historical relics.
@@jiaxuansundo you know how tunnels work? Just asking because todays technology could let us dig a tunnel over 1 mile away from the tomb and dig from underneath where oxygen and light cannot enter this idea I have would protect from destruction of relics and I just came up with this as I write it you’re telling me china can’t figure out a way to? 😅
@@Machoman50ta You know, this very large tomb has lots and lots of organs and mercury in it, and what can you put in there without knowing anything about the structure? And there's definitely a risk of damage. Also, Qin Shi Huang was the first emperor of China, and digging up the tomb of a man of his stature would be tantamount to challenging Chinese feng shui, so you mean to take such a big risk just to satisfy your curiosity?
@@jiaxuansunignore him he thinks that everything could be so simple by just “digging”😂😂
I don’t believe for 1 second they haven’t opened and looted that tomb🤷🏼♀️
Me neither
That's so obvious
Theres no way those corrupt buttholes ain't scraped it for more than it's worth .
Surely someone has tried. I call bullshit too✌
🐂💩3️⃣
When I visited, one of the senior archaeologists told me that they still had another 100yrs work to do on the current excavations with the terra cotta figures....
Did they mention the booby traps
Scholars are just full of crap, don't trust a word they say.
When I lived in Nara, Japan, I had a friend that worked for the Nara National Museum in the restorations dept. We talked a few times about this tomb, as she had colleagues that had worked on projects in China and a lot of the artifacts in the Shoso-in collection at the museum came from China. She said pretty much the same things mentioned in the video. Before the arrival of Buddhism, ancient Japanese buried their nobility in tombs called kofun that are scattered across the country. The largest ones look like keyhole shaped islands surrounded by a moat on maps and in aerial photos. The Daisen kofun in Sakai, Osaka, while not as elaborate, rivals this one in sheer size. As luck would have it, for better or worse, the museum was doing emergency restoration work on a local tomb that made for a good example. Archaeologists from the Nara National Museum had drilled a small hole in the burial chamber of the Takamatsuzuka kofun in Asuka, Nara and used a small fiber-optic camera to explore it. Mold spores hitched a ride on the camera and damaged the ancient frescoes of the Chinese zodiac that lined the chamber. They ended up unearthing and dismantling the entire burial chamber and moved it piece by piece to one of the museum's facilities to preserve it. Needless to say, it took a lot of time, labor, and money just to stablize it. That's without having to deal with poisons, ancient traps, and structural instability in a much more elaborate structure. She also mentioned how shockingly fast ancient things can oxidize when exposed to the air. She said in some cases you can actually watch things like paint and textiles wither before your eyes.
Worrying about destroying valuable information is an oxymoron. It's not valuable information if you can't access it.
Very good point. Meanwhile in Egypt they’re going gangbusters on the tombs they find.
idiota, inaccessible information is the most valuable.

We can send robots to mars but we we don’t have the technology or techniques to safely send a robot and a camera into the tomb 🤷♂️

@@PCMRvsconsole doesn't look anything like the middle of Australia as far as I'm aware
they can insert a robot from airlocks, scan the tomb and do 3D walkthroughs without opening to outside elements
Maybe you can spearhead the project
@@ScienceSavvy502how about war comes and all these historic nonsense artifacts can be destroyed?
The Chinese afraid of the curse of the dead, this is another reason why
Wouldn't be surprised if they're mummified.
The video says exactly y
Pretty sure Covid is on the down trend, now’s a good time to open it up.
But they open up everyone elses tombs
Probably scared of the mercury
Why not develop robots connected to 6G to view the interior of the Tomb?
Maybe some ground penetrating radar or something to see whats there with minimal disturbance to the tomb itself?
Or they have been looting the tomb for 50 years.
The French and the British soldiers looted most of the treasure
Just reading The Emperors Tomb by Steve Berry. Very interesting, especially the parts about the quest for Oil!
Hope you enjoy it!
I mean….who are we saving it for? It’s going to age and degrade regardless of if we go in. If we go on, at least we can document it. Seems better to me than just letting it rot pointlessly
The technology is not mature now. If we dig it up, everything inside will be destroyed.
They DO have the technology! I watched a show on them scanning Petra. They scanned the pyramids too. I forget what it’s called. LiDAR I think. Doubtful they’ll get permission tho 🤔🙏🏻
Screw it I'm going full on area 51 mode for that tomb
5lawles 5ictory
Brendan fraser was already there.
I big reason is that the CCP will not allow that tomb to be opened. Given that we do not have the technical know how to guarantee that the site would be protected….until that technology does exist, this site will remain undisturbed.
Just fkn get in. What are the secrets of the ancients.
@user-bn3ut9jv7e They've already gone in and taken the gold and other precious jewellery. I call bs that they haven't gained access inside
Lack of technology? lol what planet do you live on?
@knucklehead9267 You seriously have no idea, do you? The world governments technology vs. what we are given is leagues apart.
@@SteveT-v6n you obviously have the idea 🤡🤣
Where's Indiana Jones when you need him. He'll crack it open and find all the treasure 😂
never heard Indiana Jones saying " Oh, there's mercury in here. Time to go back.."
Indiana Jones the emperor's tomb
more like Lara Croft 🙂
Indiana Jones will be saying, “I’m getting too old for this.”
How about Rick O'Connell?
"Here we go again!"
Mmm. It's not the mercury. It's not the traps. There might be giant silk curtains with extraordinarily beautiful landscape paintings in it. Those would be destroyed in a matter of hours if they come into contact with air.
I see people talking about it but I don’t know/understand why…could you please explain ❤😊
That means the farmers land was just confiscated and turned into a museum as it was Mao's era
It's the same thing the US government did to the Native Americans
In China, all the land belongs to the government, they just allow you to make use of it.
So the land should become protected due to the tomb being of immense historical importance but farmer should be paid for the land.
Once the government requisitions the land that’s it regardless of who owns the land! 🥹😢
It’s a communist country so they probably didn’t own it to begin with.
So why show a classical ruin from the Roman period?
western and eastern societies think differently you must respect their customs, Europeans don't look at kings and queens as Icons the way that Chinese look at their monarchs read up on the rites of Zhao and the mandate of heaven then you will understand. Huangdi was the very first emperor and he is considered sacred. WE dont look at the romans that way
Wish they would allow a drone in there to get a look
"Scientists" wouldnt be scared. Religious persons might be.
If there was rivers of mercury then deadly to open. Xx
That makes it more interesting.
True, yet we've harvested mercury previously in history.
I've seen this place on a tour of China. They believe that if you open the tomb the mercury will kill the people that live in the area and poison the land.
Not much doubt about how he died then…..mercury poisoning.
Crack it open!
They actually thought poison gas was part of the trap?
Waiting for price rise in mercury no doubt
What religious beliefs did they have? An army to protect himself in death and from what has me curious
ancient Chinese covid
Nice hats they had.
leaving this all in place is just patting the dude on the ass already way too full of himself. Seems to think he was a God, & if he was he wouldnt need all this "help". Save a dozen statues ONLY for the art aspect, trash the rest...who cares...for a man to think so highly of himself and for us to honor that is really sickening.....
Who would pay me to do this?
My days are over give me what I want.
Mercury !! River in the tomb
The mastery of the craftsmanship must be unequalled ANYWHERE even though there are many excellent items created and then crafted in many parts of the world where ancient civilizations existed. Such a shame that "instructions, teachers, materials and where to find them" aren't possible. I wonder,too, if there's anyone on this globe today who would have the interest, the patience, the fine motor skills and the PERSONAL HIGH STANDARDS to learn any ancient skill and then possibly attempt to create a work using the same methods, style, creativity and commitment. Unequalled. Unparalleled. And how wonderful that these finds exist. Thank you to those who understand that all of these beautiful ( I call) works of pure art are valuable, document-able and preservable. Thank you to those who understand the IMPORTANCE of keeping these objects/items safe.
Seeing all the warriors, each one different made me imagine that they had all been entombed in clay as living/dead bodies.
Just a thought..🤔🤔🦘🦘
What if there was actually nothing inside that Tomb? hehehe we would all have waited for nothing..
Unopened…? Allegedly….
What if the terracotta warriors were meant to keep someone locked away or to attack if it escaped 😂 I watched to many movies
I almost believe this was a full army and real.. and frozen in stone and time.. u never know

It’s a good thing that the Warriors were found in 1974 at the end of Mao’s reign. It they had been discovered during the hay days of the CCP’s Cultural Revolution, they Warriors would have all undoubtedly been smashed and all traces of them destroyed. Funny now how the CCP portrays itself as the guardian and protector of Chinese culture. This role would more appropriately be taken by the Taiwanese government and people who never rejected their Chinese cultural heritage.
Bullshit! The people of Taiwan don’t even acknowledged themselves as “Chinese “. So, what are they protecting?
Isn't funny though why West stealing egyptian and african culture and treasures?🙄🙄🙄🙄
You sound like mocking the chinese government on how they protect their own culture and treasure. Why don't you tell us directly you want USA government to take over care of chinese culture and steal their treasure so you can think that to your self it is not funny😲😲😲😲😲😲😲

That isn't the only reason they won't open the tomb. The Chinese still believe in their ancestors having a huge influence on life now. They won't open it because they are afraid of the ancestors coming to get them.
this is a huge part of their culture
@@michellerenee92580 what are you talking about.. most Chinese academics are atheist.. they don't believe in that garbage.. they have open up thousands of a more recent tomb of less than a thousand year.. do you people really think the Chinese are a bunch of monkey.. you need a passport girl and go to China.. if you think you are so superior than them.. they are 5000 year old civilisation of which you are not part off..
@@michellerenee92580 they are atheist communists, this should not be part of their culture
I'm in China，a Chinese. I'm sure it's not what you said. We won't open the tomb because we want to protect it，keep what it is or was. At the same time，there's no reason to open it，so we keep what it is or was. Nobody is afraid of them coming to get us😂
The high levels of mercury but also a respect for the dead custom i love your culture your language and history@@whyhowwhat7766
So the emporer thought his wealth and military might would go where he's going?

so everyone is mispronouncing the country named China. It is Chi-na, not Chy-na.
I'm confused the raided tombs in Africa took the Cherished crown jewels. Why are they afraid to go in there🤔
Why don't you ask westeners why they didn't go there to steal chinese treasures

I’m sure some body has been in there by now....to say today we won’t look is silly
It isn't going anywhere.
It´s smelling inside after so long tíme not opened it.😊
I’m sadden how his mind was poisoned with mercury when it was mistaken for the “ Elixir of Immortality.” Long live the Song Emperor.🙏
@@johnbiggans3514 told them your happiness is your immortality.🙏
he ordered the wall no and it has defensive elements on both sides try again my friend ps stalling till all go missing
The simple truth is they don't want to deal with the unknown and what ifs they are true. Too much risk associated with it.
A river of mercury can not be healthy.
Emperor chin fascinated me. The fact that he conquered in United China was a huge accomplishment. But the truth to this man was. He was a savage to those lands that he took over. Because unfortunately, the royals were forced to work the wall and were actually buried in it as the Marvel of The Great Wall that we can see from space. It's nothing more than a cemetery. The fact of his tomb is astonishing a true Marvel. Something birthtaking and amazing words couldn't describe of what's his tomb? Looks like they should send a drone in. We have little flying drones. We have drones that look like bugs. We could drill a hole and put a drone through and have an outlook without disturbing anything or breaking anything. But the history and artifacts that are in. There is so much history for china that still is unknown
Emperor Qin or Emperor Qin Shi Huang, not Emperor Chin.
Because of COVID 2.0
They ain't scared... They probably prohibited to. They took no time opening any Egyptian sarcophagus
Drones?
They do not want to make the same mistake in the mummy movies.
Qin Shi Huang’s tomb was never opened in years.
never will be because of the high levels of mercury in the soil supposedly he made a lake of mercury around his tomb
@@michellerenee92580 Ridiculous. Hazmat suits can withstand every known contagion, and that includes mercury. They're just being superstitious.
@@michellerenee92580 so what? heard of hazmat suits and gas masks?
@@Sarlyx its not just the mercury in reality its the reverence for Qin Shi Huang The first emperor of a unified China he was Huang di they practice ancestor worship so because of the disrespect it would be his tomb will probably never be open but I don't even think hazmat's would help the lake of mercury guarding it
@@michellerenee92580 wtf are you talking about
Every excuse under the sun not to open it ! There could be ? Might be ? Its suggested ?
I doubt a river of mercury
it's ful of vermilion
Local kids around here would explore them 'doom' tombs no problem at all with no worries... adventure time!
Give the kids a mask and gloves and they would be in their glory... folk need to man up! 😂
Yeah that's the big question why because like in the movie the mummy tomb of the dragon emperor mm I think yes that's what it is 🤨🤔
I guessed $100 that his last name was going to be Wang, Kim or Wi. I win 😂😂😂😂
Why must these RUclips doco's use anachronistic or downright incorrect photographs? The content is good, just use appropriate photos.
Well, I agree that something doesn’t compute here. If you know what you’re up against then you take the necessary precautions to get it to the two if somebody hasn’t already done, so, which it would be hard to believe if they have any after all these years and go for it otherwise you’re just gonna talk about this for ever in a day and no one will ever know just because you know, a fear
Not clay Real guys .
I doubt that archeologist are worried about death traps, but I do believe they're concerned about contamination of the artifacts to exposure from air and that the interior is likely awash in liquid mercury.
There is a large Pool of mercury inside the Mausoleum modeled after the river Systems of China. You can imagine the levels of dimethyl mercury!
The main reason for not disturbing the tomb is because of superstition - breaching the tomb could bring bad luck or misfortune.
They better just scan it rather than opening it. What's inside can simply vanish when air comes inside.
I wish they would go ahead and excavate the tomb because I want to see it. I think the Chinese government doesn’t want to open the tomb because it is the first emperor and he is credited with uniting and organizing china. They were kind of forced to dig up the clay army and they would rather let the emperor sleep, than disturb him and possibly destroy his tomb. I just want to see how correct the history books are when it comes to this period of ancient china and I would love to visit and see the tomb. It’s like that vault in India that is supposed to stay locked or the world will end. It was the richest temple in India and there is a vault that hasn’t been opened. I would like to see it as well.
I wish the narrator would pronounce Qin Shihuang correctly.

Oh FFS fly me over and give me a mask and goggles with a pair of gloves and something to cover my hair i need it in donating it in about 7 to 8 months from now so im taking good care of it but i digress ill do if they to scared
So what's the point in not opening it to preserve the history of you don't even know what's they're so never know or know somthing don't tell me we don't have suits now days and shit not to metion robot dogs
I'd love to see the day when these mysterious places are finally explored.

too much mercury.
So the actual question could have been solved in a couple of minutes but no they had to make the video go much longer why not just say this is a video about the terracotta soldiers not just about the question
When read about this in school. I was amazed by it.
What difference would it make? I read where all the soldiers were vandelized and broken up anyway.
1 have 2
Black vs white
Dajjal ritual vs 7DB cool
Dark vs bright =WORLD
I heard it's full of mercury
i love how he clearly says that opening the tomb will expose it to air, leading to oxidation. Then the litany of genius fucks in this thread constantly type "send a camera or a robot" like those aren't mechanical, and as if those wouldn't require opening the door.
I was waiting for this comment
Mercury
Is it taken that these soldiers and the tomb were buried by a great flood or the sand deposits from something similar. Or was the tomb intentionally buried after the emperor’s death. Or is that unknown. No doubt said farmers lost there land during this honest act of calling officials.
Well, you should keep your fingers away - what would your family feel if the ancient chinese opened your grave and put your sorry remains behind glass in a museum?
