The Mystery Of Easter Island - Part 5

[nicelogin2]

When the Spanish invaded the land of the native indians, they learned from the native indians; when the Japanese invaded China, they learned from the Chinese as well. How did Dutch invade these islanders without learning anything from them? That is just stupid. Wouldn't they at least attempt to find out how the statues were built?

[nicelogin2]

For all these time I have been told that the islanders had been long gone before any outsiders stepping foot on the island. And now they were co-existing with each others?

In the 1700s, when the Spanish migrated to the west coast of North America, the brought diseases to the native indians. A lot of them died. And there were records as to how that happened. How come the Dutch didn't do any of the documentations? How come they didn't ask the islanders to show how the statues were built?

[brangrah1717]

wow this just goes to show the despret measures that humans take to survive

[DaveDuva]

Ugh... I'm suppose to be studying for my criminal code exam tomorrow.... How do I get so f@cking distracted?!

[MetatronThaMartian]

What that ugly historian with a bad accent doesn't tell you is that the dutch murdered and raped the tribes of Rapa Nui like all other "Western" conquerors do upon arrival in a foreign country not their own. With guns and syphilis (a sexual transmitted disease) they completely subjugated the native tribes and spread misery and and pestilence. "And behold a pale horse (white man) and his name that sat upon him was Death. Hell followed him, and He was given a crown to go forth and conquer"

[poosaypirate]

@mstone05 you can and have only base your judgment on the conjecture provided by this vid, really, you dont really know that its apparently speculation only

[eblackrose00]

so the dutches brought syphilis to easter island?

[justmentalversus]

The birdman theory is the biggest load of shit I've ever heard. Has anyone even mentioned mapping the location of where the statues stood to that of the sky, which has its own star map of constellations now. What about seeing where they point over the vast ocean?

[immayhem]

@justmentalversus This documentary is pure Jared DIamond bullshit, politically useful conjecture - passing as science. they're projecting the establishment agenda onto ancient Easter Islanders. They don't suggest civil war 'might' have happened, or human ecological destruction 'might' have happened... they simply superimpose this useful story and run with it. They disregard the little ice age, which would have killed trees (and other vegetation - as is evidenced) and disrupted fish migrations.

[poosaypirate]

@immayhem i kept thinking what about fire, you could be right but on the other hand , wouldn't scientists have found evidence of either of these natural disasters? what about the art as well, - the starving statues- more clues are needed here either way- in any direction

[watchensee]

Damn filthy European decendents they diaseased, and killed the Native Americans. And now the Easter Islanders! }:( It certainly doesn't make you feel proud too be of European American  blood! {:(

[poosaypirate]

@watchensee all that thru arrogance, Europeans STILL maintain their arrogant attitude towards Todays European Americans " because they have no culture" sounds like something that has been said before -. you know kkkirstopher kkkolumbus

[drummin65turbo]

Jesus Christ! I can't take take this...Are you serious?!?! I think this is one of the most interesting mysteries of the world. This, however, is complete horseshit!!! They virtually DISprove every god damned theory they try to pass off just by talking. I.E. "They would swim out, in water's filled with sharks" No one wants to be eaten...Second..."Statues are knocked, with the OCEAN BEHIND these statues" I vote wave of somekind. And! Moving statues UPRIGHT?!?!?!?! How fucking stupid can you be...?

[XBAGREMX]

Fuck the Easter Island peoples they still belive in christianity who destroy they culture...

[tamweiwen]

This is horro using gun on them they stop the war your people come and start shooting them your people of bull shit and break their life and family they are not barbarin you are the 1 with the gun are barbarin your history are shit!

[ilifeform]

0:50 Birdman??!! another proof of aliens.come on US Govt idiots pls reveal the truth.please...

[cleopatra108]

@grengerx And you are completely within your rights to do so. I don't mind.

[grengerx]

Check the oral traditions of the inhabitants,they sound truer that these biased and politically correct BS . yahoo answers

[bc1050]

nice story but a rather speculative

[teokoroa]

Why do they always have to give us a westernized perspective of what certain symbols mean???

[FoundationsofPause]

Birdmen, we're birds of WAR.

Sorry couldn't resist.

[spousini]

feeling a bit racist to white people.flippin westenerz

[teokoroa]

@spousini I feel the same way...They killed our culture...Well some of it...

[Dezzan]

How do they know so much about the birdman??

I feel like this whole part is very far-fetched and just mostly bs ..

[myfairvanity]

that's a pretty epic commercial. lol. "improves mental performance" *guy drinks it and dives head first into a copier*

this doc makes a lot of assumptions, btw. : / that's fine and all but they really are telling this story as if it's a sure thing. you know their "theories and hypothesis" will have evolved in 20 years.

[KirbyCrossing]

It was aliens who saved the island, the people saw UFO's, so they made them look like bird-poeple beacuse they were flying in the sky like birds.

[RascalCoyote]

@KirbyCrossing makes sense, the scientists and producers i=of this doc. are deliberately ignoring the native legends, and coming up with their own explanations, of course they deem the legends as incoherent because they DON"T UNDERSTAND them, and instead of TRYING to understand them or research them, they disregard then and substitute their own explanations, their western explanation is only PART of the truth,

[grengerx]

@RascalCoyote You got the only sensible post here,congrats ,you are awake

[FullBloodedHmoob]

nasty ass fucking white people..

[cleopatra108]

Oh god I hate when these absolutely amazing cultures die out because of stupid western people looking everywhere, and everywhere they go the spread death and desease I am disgusted to be from europe, if only they'd stay in their own country - just think of what civilizations might have lived!! Maya, Aztecs, Easter Islanders.....

[rueboyps3]

@cleopatra108 yea then they turn around and say the natives are savages, pollute there culture with greed, booze and the bible, after they slaughter and rape there women of course. I do not hate white people, I am of Maori decent, but what I do hate are the people responsible for it. Maori people were the only race they could not conquer through war, they had to sign a treaty with us, then they fuckt us up that way lol, with the pen, but not the sword. we were the 1st to use trench warfare

[fdfederation]

@cleopatra108 I simulated that in Age of Empires 2. The Aztecs prayed to their god "big daddy" and were gifted a convertible which they used to annihilate the entire map. Unfortunately, they also made offerings to "wimpywimpywimpy" and brought about the defeat message.

[grengerx]

@cleopatra108 I hate stupidity like yours

[castlekingside28]

@cleopatra108 ahh I see you´ve gone through the UKs left wing education system. Well, if your gonna sprout garbage on here then at least learn your fucking history!!! The Aztecs weren´t the sweet and innocent "absolutely amazing culture" you seem to think they were, they were the head of a forced alliance that subjugated neighbouring tribes through violence and fear of death of their women and children, that practiced human sacrifice by ripping out the still beating hearts of innocent people.

[roflmao918]

hahahaha commercial XD

[neoflowers1234]

We JUST saw half of this in class and I'm desperate to see the rest! I can't wait for

Monday!

[ifrit1780]

lol Was this show recorded off an HK channel?

[napalmface]

probably captain cokks fault.............he take the religion jesus, to the island, put on 1-50 missionareys, who force them to belive in the fucking GOOD, push down all ther goods (statys)...........after that the american/ european decises..............little like Hawai..........again jesus krist in a big failure........and it still continu.....take AWAY ALL religion..............simple

[hellohal3]

@napalmface blame the people not the religon

[anotherelvis]

Commercials at 2:40

[SpaceBatDemonDragon]

This is fascinating

[Ruks8]

Similar events also occured in other islands where western dieseases such as TB, syphilis, cough almost wiped the entire population.

[ThEmIdNiGhTiNtRuDeR]

What's up with all these dumb comments? Can't you find anything good to talk about regarding the bloody video?

[londonoverground]

you're on every fucking easter island video talking shit. what the fuck has this comment got to do with the video? why dont you just fuck off, midnightfaggot?!

[ThEmIdNiGhTiNtRuDeR]

I've yet to hear you say anything worthwhile about ANY video. All you do is look at videos you're not interested in just to post your pathetic hate-filled messages to people with open minds. Nobody needs a negative little bigot like you, so why don't YOU fuck off and grow up you while you're at it, you sad, friendless child.

[londonoverground]

who says im not interested in this?

and my pathetic hate filled messages are nothing compared to some of those you sent me. (did you ever get that sand out of your vagina btw?)

you probably wouldn't incure such negativity from people if you just stopped acting like such a know-it-all dickhead by grabbing yourself a nice big cup of shut-the-fuck-up.

[ThEmIdNiGhTiNtRuDeR]

Incure? That's not an actual word you moron. I believe you mean incur. I don't incur negativity from 'people', just you and the other occasional freak. Because most people are actually civilized and are able to partake in a bit of healthy debate and speculation without resorting to childish insults and personal attacks, which is senseless because you don't know me. I can only assume that you feel threatened by the intellect of those who have valid opinions because you yourself have none.

[londonoverground]

debate? you're creating a debate when there is no need. because you love the sound of your own voice - (and of course everyone's a fucking expert on youtube).

i dont know you, but i know the kind of person you are: a fucking smug cunt.

and who says your opinions are valid? - you? well i say they aren't. how about that? because you are NO FUCKING EXPERT!! WHO CARES WHAT YOU THINK?!

now could you please fuck off - I feel way too threatened by your intellect right now.

[ThEmIdNiGhTiNtRuDeR]

You know, you're boring me now. To be honest I feel sorry for you. You must have a really miserable, angry life to spend your days and nights attacking people you don't know on here. You can think I'm smug all you like but that's not the kind of person I am, but I really don't care what you think. Maybe you just need someone to give you a hug and I hope you find that and learn to become a little bit more tolerant of those you disagree with. I forgive you and even wish you all the best.

[londonoverground]

You aint heard the last of me you smug piece of shit.

Until next time, bitch. ;)

[SnipeSnipe180]

those archeaologists should know not to touch the rocks. the oil on our hands erodes the rocks even faster than the wind and sea mist.

[AmazingCowMan]

Great series though.

[hightymes2]

first time ive watched a vid an a comerical came on .gnr(gotta nigga rollin

[Milenium412]

Bones and Eggs, anyone?

[colmmernagh]

This could all be total garbage !!

I sense a rewrite of history here !

[smegs05]

The Narrator does not explain how the Islander's survived after the forest was cut down. What he says doesn't make sense. On one hand he says deforestation hinders the survival of their society but at the same time he says THEY "Some How" recovered. BUT HE DOESNT SAY HOW!!! HE CLAIMS BY EATING EGGS . How did they grow crops after the soil was eroded?? You cannot sustain a population of 2000 by eating off eggs once a year!! Everyone should type in google: Jared Diamond Collapse.

[dcprotests]

Wasn't there a huge civil war slaughter? Didn't they supplement their egg diets with cannibalism? Was that in the film or in the book?

[Toymit]

NO,he doesnt say they recovered by eating eggs,you just didnt listen properly.They lived on sweet potato,sugar cane,yams,chickens and probably rats.

[smegs05]

The Producers and Narrator of this program have missed a CRUCIAL point. The Narrator's explanation for the Islander's survival after the forest was cut down was their use of bird's eggs from a nearby rocky island. FALSE. How could bird eggs support a population of 2000 from a rock island caught by people swimming sustain people for over a century?? This is simply false. Jared Diamond disputes this. The "Bird Man" tradition predates the Islander's deforestation of Easter Island.

[Toymit]

I think you misheard what the doco actually said.They said the creation of the birdman saved the island,not the egg itself.They created the birdman to see which of the tribes got the fertile land to plant crops.The only function the egg had was for the chosen warrior of each tribe to collect one from the small island and be the first to give it to his chief,therfore winning.

[sheppyJOLIE]

can somebody explain to me how birds bring fish with them? the lady says it after the first minute...

[domerloughran]

lol i know right. crazy people

[Toymit]

You mean when a bird goes fishing and catches a fish then takes it to its nesting place or wherever?

[apiaway]

hmmm I feel like drinking some Lucozade.

I wonder why?

LOL

[apiaway]

frigate birds are pronounced on a lot of polynesian tattoos.

[dcprotests]

I noticed that the Easter Islanders had to get rid of the religious leaders who practiced statue building in order to recover. Obviously, they weren't still building statues afterwards. But, unfortunately, they were met by 'other' statue-worshippers...the CHRISTIANS!

[rakatia285]

it is a sin for a christian to worship man-made idols

[hellohal3]

christians dont worship statues rofl

[dcprotests]

Christians sure look like they worship statues and crosses to me. Of they'll claim that they don't worship the actual statues, but they would get very upset if one were to smash those statues to bits and pieces. Christians also worship political leaders, like George Bush and Adolf Hitler.

[hellohal3]

looks like you have a bit of a problem u stupid cunt when do christians worship statues...catholics might prey to saints but thats not to a statue

the cross is a symbol......

oh and were the fuck did u get the idea that christians worship to gorge bush and hitler.....

any evidence?

and if any of this is true its a small group of them who arnt proper christians not evry single 1 u stupid cunt

[hellohal3]

im not going to have a argument with you were both intitaled to are opinions but iv never met a christian that worships bush and hitler ...

saint mary is in the catholic church not evry branch

and tarring every christian with the same brush is like saying all dogs have brown fur

[dcprotests]

Read your history. I am not saying ALL Christians worship Bush or Hitler, but enough of them did. However, most of them support the system that causes the destruction in the world openly and honestly paying their taxes that in effect, 'worship' policitical Czars and Bushlers even though they claim to be peaceful people.

[hellohal3]

mate

most people pay their taxes for the things that we need ...yes some taxes go on things that we dont want but if they didnt pay them theyed get fined even more

if you want to carry on this conversation you can have my email and we can carry it on from there and you can show me your evidence to your argument

[dcprotests]

Well, if it's a democracy, then taxes should be voluntary and not enforced with guns and prisons. The key here would be to reverse the process to make it more costly for the tax collectors to collect that tax.

[hellohal3]

well the point is is that if they dont pay there taxes there fucked....so how are you going to reverse the process? by having a go at evryone that disagrees with you?

[dcprotests]

It would be too fucking bad if they didn't have tax money to continue their wars where they are 'having a go' at everyone who disagrees with THEM! Get it? We aren't talking about 'innocent' people here. We're talking about people who are exactly like the Nazis. So yes, hurt their financial system.

[chickensupdude]

@hellohal3 what about the US government? why do they use so much of the people's money for UN NEEDED SHIT such as - millions and actually billions in areas such as area 51 men in black and different FAG organizations that all they do is molest their own body and suck elephant cock.

[hellohal3]

@chickensupdude mate im not from the us so why would i know so much about this?

[Matlike1]

Please provide some proof of your claims.

[Matlike1]

Wow, you really have no idea what you are talking about do you? Either that or you are 15 and are probably just trying to start shit with people. Probably a bit ofd both. Now, what ever you do, please don't reply with a really stupid comment cause I don't read em. But I imagine you will because you probably have nothing better to do

[dcprotests]

And another thing. Right here you admit you "don't read my comments." This is what stupid ignorant religious people do, they ignore data and practice their stupid Easter religions.

[Matlike1]

Christians don't worship statues or crosses you idiot, they look at the cross as a symbol. Christians also do not worship political leaders either you ignorant fool. Do some research and homework before you talk out of your ass on such matters and hence look like you are an ignorant fool talking out of your ass.

[dcprotests]

I already said that it looks like they worship them and it I smashed their statues in front of their stupid faces they would get upset. Sho shut the fuck up, idiot. Sit on one of your Easter statues and rotate.

[jimmsy2000]

Erm... is that Dot, from Mad TV?

[gryzman]

another such a false conclusion. Must have been made by woman that doesn't know a thing about life.

I am so astound with fact, that we all think that every civilization that lived on earth before us, was "primitive". Such a big mistake to think that.

[tempeemendoan]

wakakakaak a comercial??

[TalkCreativePlanet]

Yeah, I admit I pilfered this documentary from someone else to upload so your guess is as good as mine O.o

[tempeemendoan]

but thanks for added this videon in here...

[sparlund]

haha, lame commericials xD

[releasopoulos]

lol at the commercials :P
