Leonardo Da Vinci - 5of10 (History Channel)

[manwithouthat44]

I wouldnt be surprised if the voice over isnt italian whatsoever but a caucasian american or something.

[JacksonCreate]

Beautiful!

[fernandesfran]

They didn't have pron back then, so kids could better concentrate on whatever they did instead of taking frequent breaks to visit some site...

[valentina1227]

@fernandesfran not just porn but internet and things like that in general......i do agree with you.

[fernandesfran]

@valentina1227 I was being half-serious. But, yes, too much distraction and too many options have spoiled us.

[viggy123]

i think i might have killed most of the persons they said that was assassinated in Assassin's creed

[thinkANDcreate]

I'm the exact same way. I often create a piece of art and don't "finish" it. I've sort of created a personal style from it, especially with multiple medias. There is a certain beauty that you don't necessarily acheive with a full canvas or piece of paper. It also encourages thinking. I'm left handed as well, so maybe that has something to do with it. My brother is a scientist which has always caught my interest and I take part in everything from writting to drawing to painting and woodwork...

[JAKphoenixify]

@thinkANDcreate I know what you mean.....leave your mind concentrated on one masterpiece for too long then your brain interprets it as labour...that's why you should let your ideas flow freely

[thinkANDcreate]

I don't know why he didn't finish some paintings, etc. That doesn't make him any less of a genius or artist. He's still a truly great Renaissance man.

[jordan4ever100]

i wish i could be born in that time school are easier than this shit now

[RoyaICIown]

0:10 I understand how he feels =P

[dancingnancy09]

@polkysy10 maybe i am maybe im not maybe im bisexual maybe im a faghag- why is relavant? unless you want to be in a sexual relationship with someone then thier sexuality really isnt relavant at all

[Esmoshka]

I read (can't remember where) Leonardo was not homosexual but asexual. Hmmm...

[Prfactist]

Maybe the wheels turned the opposite directions so that it could reverse without trouble?

[martialartist95]

why the hell is he painting with his right hand???

[sweeney665]

@martialartist95 first of all he wasn't proved to be a left handed, as far as i know at least, him being a leftie was suggested by his inverted writing that supposedly was easier for a left handed person and also i have heard too that he was ambidextrous which comes as no surprise really.

[martialartist95]

@sweeney665 good point... 

[astranine]

Leonardo thought painting was servile?  That's interesting.

[HistoryLover1550]

Wow!

[HistoryLover1550]

Thumbs up if you think a movie should be done on Da Vinci's life.

[sweeney665]

@HistoryLover1550 oh boy....i most certainly hope NOT.....at least not a hollywood production, they will concentrate the whole film on the speculations of hi, being homosexual(e.g. alexander the great) and the biggest part would be about the dropped accusation of sodomy...no thank you, i'll pass. documentaries are good enough..

[HistoryLover1550]

@sweeney665 You've got a point, maybe a tv series would be better. Of course it would have to have a really good director, screen writer(s), and historical consultants. Hollywood messes up historical/mythological tales too much I agree.

[dancingnancy09]

@sweeney665 why is it such a problem that da Vinci was gay? why is it a problem that Alexander the great was gay- Michealangelo- he was gay too - so what, who cares? why is everytime a great and astonishinly brilliant man from history is gay it is such a problem? why are so many people so hell bent on denying it as if homosexuals cant be great and briliiant men? bunch of homophobes!

[sweeney665]

@dancingnancy09 what's YOUR problem??i never said i had a problem with him or any great persona being gay, i just said that i wouldn't want a film by a big hollywood studio on his life because it would suck due to the biggest part of it being about him being homosexual. got it? Unless you consider the film on alexander the great to be a good film, then you must scan you brain for tumors.

[dancingnancy09]

@sweeney665 you patehtic agreesor crack me uo LOL

[RoyaICIown]

@dancingnancy09 leonardo da vinci was gay? wow I didn't know that

[TakumProti]

@dancingnancy09 Alexander the Great was not trully gay in the modern sense. During his time, the concept of sexuality that we have was nonexistent. A person's beauty mattered far more than their gender. During that time, a Greek man was expected to marry a woman and have children with her, but it was encouraged for a man to have homosexual relations at the same time.

[geksii]

I'm an artist myself, although a lot of my works are unfinished.

But for me it shows a sense of structure and organization underlying the artwork with engineering rather than some paint splatter and calling it art.

[plagueofangels666]

doctor Pevsner also appears in da vinci's machines (saw it on discovery channel)

[692ALBANNACH]

What was that show where they made a replica of this tank ?

[plagueofangels666]

@692ALBANNACH i think you mean "da vinci's machines". but they also show a replica on a documentary here on youtube. it's a 18 part doc. about his life (a little bit like this one, but longer) Does that help?

[zachpowell]

For the first time since this thumbs up; thumbs down ranking system I can say 0 people are, "STUPID." Long live Da Vinci.

[dancingnancy09]

@zachpowell tell me about it!

[Xentozz]

@zachpowell Long live From Vinci ? You sir have failed :(

[RapScoop]

@zachpowell hihi, i fuckd yo status up! But love this series!<3

[TheMikaela1992]

@RapScoop

I wanna say you're an idiot but u made me lmao.

[RapScoop]

@TheMikaela1992 haha :D

[TheAngelThatCry]

@RapScoop just so you know, you are the only dislike on the bar

[RapScoop]

@TheAngelThatCry Well, forever alone...

[heinzpuchi]

0:12 he is painting with his right hand.....he was left handed !

[leebone98]

@heinzpuchi hahah yeah but whenever he rites he uses his left hand. maybe he was both?

[heinzpuchi]

@leebone98 i think it was in the first part where he painted with his left hand. so

maybe they edited the image and made it in the mirror and forgot he was left handed for a few seconds :P

[leebone98]

@heinzpuchi hahah well considering the lame fight scenes that wouldnt surprise me lol :)

[rifsberjasulta]

@heinzpuchi I've heard that he was ambidextrous

[heinzpuchi]

@rifsberjasulta maybe :) but we'll never know for sure

[cantopia]

6:20 "an error?"

yeah

[luisronaldofigo]

funny how you dont get to be a genius until you enter military . einstein da vinci see a pattern there?

[clinicalpsychology22]

his I/Q must have been off the charts

[7Supernova7]

@clinicalpsychology22 ive heard 220,, but not shure,, more than einstein, newton ore darwin

[xqSoccer]

@clinicalpsychology22 His Iq is to be predicted at around 210. Thats amazingly high, he is a super genius. From what I could tell theres only a dozen or so ever recorded.

[MillightKoles]

@clinicalpsychology22 his IQ was 220.

[iamyitanli]

@clinicalpsychology22 That's statistically impossible.

[AdamsTeinz]

@iamyitanli Not really. But did anyone notice that it's IQ, not I/Q? as @clinicalpsychology22 said.

[Kep0v]

@clinicalpsychology22 but iq is false

[Diakabenda]

genious!
