- Aztecs lived by a different code and being part of a sacrifice to appease the gods was seen as an honor, but from today's standards, the rituals of the Aztecs are seen as extreme and horrifying! Check out some of the craziest things the Aztecs did that were just part of their daily life.

Imagine being the king who showed up to the temple to watch his daughter get wedded but instead had to witness a priest wearing his daughter's skin as a garment.... thats just savage. (In a really bad way)
Sounds like something from Game of Thrones.

@Darnell Green The Aztecs were at war with the Spaniards.. and it was mostly smallpox that killed them, not Europeans.. do you really think people are inventing the history of ancient civilizations to try and create racism in the modern day..? That literally makes no sense homie
@Darnell Green Dude are you trying to score points off a detail of what I said or educate yourself on a topic you’re clearly lacking info on.
I’m not defending all the actions taken by the Spaniards, not a chance, but you’re actually crazy if you think they made up all the details of child sacrifice and skin wearing rituals to try and perpetuate racism. There are literal carvings on their monuments of human sacrifice. I’m not saying what the Spaniards did was good but I’m also not saying the native Americans (Aztecs) were some peaceful people when they were literally skinning children alive.
Ahh yes the good old times, no cellphone in sight, just people living the moment.
Well.... Some are living
and ripping each other's hearts
And skinning alive some.
Maybe we can make some sacrifices to the Gods again for old times sake.
Hey hey people
Imagine being 9 months pregnant when a full grown man just pops out of you and is like “stand back mother I’ll protect you”
So brave
With the amount of sacrifices, its a wonder they never drove themselves to extinction as a society.
You also gotta remember how big and powerful the Aztec Empire actually was, when they were fully thriving
@@donttrip9512 Plus the amount of sacrifices is exaggerated by the Spanish friars reporting back to European royalty.
@@didostempest2966
It wasn't so much exaggerated as they caught them during a time of incredibly violent civil war because of how many members of their noble and priest caste had succumbed to the numerous diseases brought, and it wasn't at all uncommon to offer up warriors killed in battle to the gods.
So they mistake what was just ritualistically executing prisoners of war and political enemies as the day to day religious action.
Not that you'll catch me trying to justify ritual human sacrifice, I mean, they were basically every pagan horror story given flesh.
@@cranberryeater7459 They did manage population growth so good, that their land ended up in other nation's hands.
Same thing with executions in Europe
Kinda depressing that people back then treat death and killing like getting a cup of morning coffee.
@Ussy those were wars of man (-_-" ) we just...fight...
Very casual
@Ussy old testicul no? Mkay ima go find some maturity
I was thinking along the same lines tbh. Not exactly a culture of advanced thinking or reasoning, but based out of wearing skins and killing out of superstition. Kinda pathetic actually
Right? But then again this was before science, our ancestors couldn't comprehend why certain things happen and so they create stories to explain
Oneday, somehow, some aztec priest spontaneously thought sacrificing bodies was the solution 😶
A moment of respect for the narrator for pronouncing the names without any difficulty.
lol but just facts
Actually the pronunciations all are wrong...but for English speaker he doing decent...
Ya, I have to agree with that
Some are definitely off
I appreciate the narrator actually trying to pronounce it correctly. Most wouldn't and would deliberately butch it.
No matter where you find humans you find brutality... be they Indigenous people, Europeans, African, Arabs, Asians...
Then find me the customary child sacrifices performed in Europe at the time.
@@cloudydied Really, one of the most brutal in the past? How is that? Because of slavery? Let me guess, you're a Muslim Arab. Yet many Muslim and Arab countries still practice slavery to this day, others waiting until the 20th and 21st century to abolish it. Westerners abolished slavery first. So no, America, nor Europe, was ever more brutal than Native Americans, the Middle-East, or nearly any other place for that matter.
@Ceyna ok I understand now I'm sorry about my limited knowledge, I'm still learning history so I once again am sorry for the points I make, I'd much rather just delete my comments then reply to a valid argument
This is another level.
@@4u5tit was rare. The carthaginians did it.the romans took them out. They were disgusted. The Roman foundation myth was that the two babies, romulus and Remus, were left to die. The wolf suckled them.
Love dark, strange, and mysterious episodes in infographics format

Wait, and the Aztecs said the Spanish were savages?
Humans are savages on every scale.
Aztecs had a brutally murderous inquisition and genocided people they colonized? oh no, just the spanish did that. "brutal executions" isnt really a way to judge a society
@@kamerionsmith4551 Spain committed no genocide. That's why most Mexicans are brown and can't grow beards if men. You regurgitate slander against my people. You deserve your heart ripped out. Brits who spread the slander the most are the biggest hypocrites. Just ask any Tasmanian those macro-evolutionist genocidal maniacs called "missing links." My series crushing atheist myths proves that macro-evolution is impossible, and that Darwin wnated all non-Europeans to be "exterminated." They of course hid that information from you when they indoctrinated you.
Wait a min. You heard the aztecs say the Spaniards are savages. 🤣🤣🤣🤦♂️
Chill out, if you believe the narrative only people with white skin can do bad things.
401 Children?
She was one very busy and resilient lady.
Do you remember a time when we used to make human skin suits?
Pepperidge farms remembers.
Sometimes my girlfriend says she wants to be in my skin 😳 I think she was born in the wrong era.

That’s either a very good sign or a real bad one.

Can’t believe he said all those name, it’s amazing
The "He then filleted her" got me 💀
Flayed, not fileted
I hope they make a future “God of War” game set in Mesoamerican mythology.
That would be awesome .
What would be the name of Aztec Kratos?
Probably Cratohualt.
Wayyy better than Norse
I witnessed this in Apocalypto, that film leaves no stone unturned
That movie is not accurate though. Puts Mayans as Aztecs for example.
This is some serious psychedelics
I think you nailed it!
I love when I wake up and start watching a video about skinning people
I learn more watching these vids than my entire time in high school if only my teachers used this I would have payed attention more
How long ago were u in high school? Because I doubt that the infographics show was around when u were in school
@Darnell Green then how did 911 happen then
@@DaveMiller87 It was an inside job, Osama Bin Laden used too b a CIA agent, look it up. Theirs even documents
These episodes are getting darker and darker
Fun fact: when Elliot Spencer was being transformed into Pinhead, his human soul fused with that of Xipe Totec. I guess it’s fitting that Xipe was around during the “Flaying of Men” period.

Their hardwork*
@MysticalKO there are no dislikes on yt anymore
@@mserra2 yeah but I didn't update my yt, it just automatically updated yt for me -_-
@@teuwaiseu_jjang5160 it automatically updates for everyone
They actually found the land that became Tenochtitlán because Huitzilopochtli told the Aztecs to abandon their land and look around for where an eagle was eating a snake on a cactus. You left out the snake. it’s on the Mexican flag.
Please more Aztec stories!!!
Bc of this myth, the Aztecs would literally do this. They would arrange a marriage with the daughter of another triable chieftain. Then on the wedding night, the Aztecs would sacrifice her. Now I don’t remember if they flayed her and wore her skin but yeah this practice started several wars.
People: we live in the worst timeline
Infographics: Yeah but did you know it used to be even scarier?
Spanish Conquistadors in Howard Wolowitz voice: "Suddenly I'm looking pretty good, huh?"
Greatest channel on RUclips.
You guys... You leave me spellbound everytime 🙃 How can y'all be so..... InForMaTiVEeeEeEeeeeEeeeeE!!
this sounds so comforting
It’s interesting that the Aztecs talk about the destruction of the world 5 times before, an our own current paradigm also proves our planet’s precious 5 mass is extinctions millions and billions of years ago
The gods are like 👍 these guys wear my skin suit, I gotta save them.
**hernando Cortez ** friend request
Gods: oh yeah gotta buy the wife so groceries. Later man….
This one can be a little hard to follow at times, I think the narrator needs to pause more and clarify especially for aztec names
My favorite Channel on YT!
The pyramid shown is Maya, not Aztec. A whole different civilization and age.
Yeah that’s the Pyramid of Kukulcan in Chichen Itza
Not that it matters, as they even show a light bulb at some point, but the eagle shown is a bald eagle, the symbol of the USA. The Mexican Eagle is a golden eagle.
@@jmchez well it's like showing the Parthenon in a video about the Roman Empire.
@@AdictTrance Good point. That would, actually, really upset me. LOL!
Also the term Aztecs is wrong, when the spaniards came people would talk about the legendary land called Aztlán where their god told them to settle in and so they started calling them Aztecs (probably also due to a translation error) when in reality the Aztecs actually called themselves Mexicas (as well as others from rivalling tribes)
I literally learned about this in my history class yesterday, and low and behold, this video was uploaded.
Doesn't the pyramid represent the Maya culture, not the Aztec?
They all made pyramids but I think only the Aztecs decorated their pyramids with their gods

Compliments for your pronunciation. Very well done.
3:30 400 SONS? Man that woman was busy !!!
Sounds like buffalo bill in Silence of the Lambs...."SHE RUBS THE LOTION ON HER SKIN!!!"
They even do a weird creepy dance move while ticking in their junk lol
That is horrifying, showing up to a wedding and seeing the priest wearing the skin, Gross.
Aztec 1: I have extreme hemophobia.
Aztec 2: You're gonna love it here.
Nice job on the pronunciations man
I love your videos. Keep up all the great work.👍🏻
english translation of aztec saying
"there were good times
and
there were bad times"
aztec saying
"there were heart times
and
there were no heart times
Hi love your videos
I wish it was known that allot of those sacrifices were volunteers.
i dont know if she was a volunteer.... But yes the human sacrifice is largely misrepresented, europeans did it as well, back in the good ol days... but often POW were used as "convenient" sacrifices that is just a fact.
so much wounder and ignorance at the same time
Imagine being a Spaniard walking in on these sacrifices 😰🥴
I love the channel
2:25 the Aztecs "looked" as if they were gonna lose 2:30 so they retreated and didn't lose? That is literally defeat.
The Aztecs actually called themselves Mexica. They are also still alive today in Mexico in the millions and call themselves Nahuatl people.
The name of the Aztecs came from the Nahuatl language. The Empire was known as the Aztec Empire, the people the Mexica.
@@fearedjames ahhh yes. The floor is made of floor.
@@YellowCapeInvincible As in, its not wrong to call them the Aztecs. They did call themselves as the Aztecs.
Good video
Mmm looks like we found the ancestors of Ed Gein.
The cartels are still following most of their aztecs traditions.
Hahah Yeah pretty much
Always when I watch these videos- the fact that they use this cute cartoonish animation style to show stories of genocide, human sacrifice, cannibalism etc; wow that just makes the whole thing even creepier lol . The one of Jeffrey Dahmer particularly!
Yet when I skin my mother-in-law and make my son wear it it's considered "immoral." 🤦♂️
Why do I feel like people are gonna simp for the guy in the thumbnail?
imagine being a Aztec that had vasovagal syncope attacks
lolz
What's that?
What kind of products do you use
How is the view count of videos updated? Do you need to watch the full video for a view to be added to the count? I always wondered that
I remember I heard that before in Extra Credit, and it's probably the most morbid story I heard there.
Picture this... an aztec horror movie where a loved one wants to participate in sacrificing his life. itll have all types of jump scares too with jaguars ambusing farmers, aztec style warfare and eating humans
Apocalypto
@@sam7741 the protagonist will die in my idea of a movie.
@@sam7741 sort of like hereditary's dark ending
How about a story of Quetzalcoatl? I did hear her name but didn't know much about it.
What book is this source from ?
“Led the people to the great city of Tenochtitlán” *shows imagine of MAYAN pyramid
I’m high af watching this. What the heck did I run into 🤣🤣
Brutality of topic beside...what's the track name of the peaceful background music?
That whole year of chilling, idk being a sacrifice doesnt seem that bad
Just finished that skinned alive video
and got this pop up xD
It is awesome to watch infographics show on youtube I like what would happen if you didn't brush you're teeth for 1 week
Ball of feathers that made her pregnant...
Zeus dont break into other cultures
When guys say they’re going to wear their girls as a mask this is probably not what they meant
So where can I find this image.
Talking about the thumbnail.
@4:05 Anyone immediately thought of Oversimplified's Napoleon video when he and his army marched out of his mum?
Needed cannons and calvary
Mexican cartel origin of absolutely craziness
Its crazy how they knew the world was reborn 5 times we just recently found out there was 5 great extinction before our time
Please do on hari singh nalwar (India's Hercules ) ,great gama and king porus
One has to wonder with the amount of times they kept doing it would it actually rain or produce results when they sacrificed. Because you would think the would at some point realize hey this doesn't seem to be working
I mean you can make the same argument for Christianity or any religion. At one point does the prayer not match up with what you want. For the Aztecs and some other indigenous cultures they continued minor ritual sacrifices even after Spanish colonization.
And to think back then that was normal
The Aztecs were one of the most brutal nations ever. Yet Cortez with the help of thousands of native Americans gets called a bad guy for destroying the Aztecs. I’d say he did the world a favor.
Just another day in the RimWorld
It's interesting about music being played and people being enchanted and taken to falling off a cliff.
It reminds me of the children's tale:- The Pied Piper of Hamlet.
Why am I not surprised?
because you are a frequent visitor of this channel
Wow Im so early.... as always great vids
Thank God for Christianity!
This narrator's constant mispronunciation of "Huitzilopochtli" ("Weet-sil-o-poch-tlee") makes me sad. :(
Extra Episode for the Tzompantli Wall of Skulls??
I thought of the Sofia the first intro looking at the title
(I'm sorry you had to see this comment)
Just watch Mel Gibson's Apocalypto. People have a false narrative about the Aztecs. Sure they had a written language, a calendar, and studied astronomy. But they also owned slaves and were a very brutal culture. If the Spanish Conquistadors didn't come along they still would've killed each other and likely peasant uprising would had enviablely occurred.
Used Maya pyramids, the wrong cactus, and the wrong eagle. Hard to get those wrong when its literally on the Mexican flag.
Conquistadors we’re basically Indiana Jones battling the temple of doom
The aztecs were the lowest of humans, never forget that
The video is 10:08 and people wishing everyone in under 10 seconds of the upload😁👍
when psychopaths rules
I hate history but I learned a lot from this
xD ... why did you guys use an American eagle instead of a Mexican one? was it too hard to color it brown?
And the natives had beards or an Elvis hair cut 5:05
"skin flaying, human skin suits, organs torn from bodies" had me giggling 😂😂😂😂
g-damn aztecs we're metal af
I am sorry, but temple in your thumbnail is Mayan temple, not Aztec temple.
