It's a pity the original main entrance at the Panathinaiko (Kallimarmaro) Stadium doesn't stand anymore...it was so beautiful...

Does somebody know how can i find the rights' owner of this film? Some shots are very intresting and i would like to buy the royalties to use some seconds in a documentary film. Do you have a better resolution than 360p?

@SpanishWelshman I feel sorry for you!!!!

[filmtress]

Sorry I would sympathize with you but Spain treated the Moors like shit! Gilbraltar is the corrupted name of General Gebel Tarik who the 'rock of Gilbraltar" was so name. The Moors were quite generous laying down civilization for almost 800 years making Spain the most popular learning center prior to the Renaissance and what did spain do? They drove them out barely wearing the clothes on their backs. No honey, spain is getting what it deserves. Ha, hahhahahh!

3:33 Did he say 'queer looking lions?'

6:22 I can take that army! (and I can do it with one hand tied behind my back wearing stillettos!)

6:45 modified by the Scottish Highlanders? lol (I always knew there was something weird about those Scots.)

7:53 White race inherited its nobelist qualities. (now that explains everything!)

My Summary after extensive research:

"White people are inherently racist! Come on 2012, it's time for a world makeover!"

Give back Gibraltar to Spain you English thieves!

Yes, poor Athens..

Βut there aren't the "developers" alone. Overpopulation is the reason..

First the "heroic refuges",as the video says, under the circumstances.. Then the greek peasants for a better life, now all these poor people that an emigrant ship disembarked...

It's a pity..

Poor athens, butchered by developers since the 30's/
