Transcript

00:00We just got dropped off on this 2,000-year-old ancient temple.

00:06But we're still high up.

00:07We're surrounded by jungle.

00:08See you later.

00:10Let's go see what we can find.

00:11In this video, we're going to be exploring dozens of ancient temples,

00:15all of which hide ancient Mayan secrets from the world deep underground.

00:19Everything you guys are seeing now, the Mayans didn't want us to see.

00:23Nobody gets to go where we're going,

00:25including exploring one of the seven wonders of the world.

00:28But we only have 100 hours to make discoveries.

00:31Dude, I'm discovering these stairs are huge.

00:33Yeah, I want to find an escalator.

00:34Let's go discover the secrets of the Mayans.

00:37This is the door to the inside of this massive Mayan temple.

00:41Oh, that's a deep tunnel.

00:42Dibs are going first.

00:43That's fine with me.

00:44There's boobie traps.

00:45This temple is over 2,000 years old.

00:48This is insane.

00:50We're inside an ancient temple right now.

00:52Where are we going?

00:53Oh, my gosh.

00:54Oh, wow.

00:55The first thing you see in this temple is this giant statue,

00:59which is supposedly the corn god inside of a jaguar's mouth.

01:02This is so beautiful.

01:03My gosh.

01:04I'm going to tell you what I think this means,

01:06and you tell me what it means, okay?

01:07This is a hand.

01:09This is a parade.

01:10That's a toilet.

01:11That is not his toilet.

01:16That is his earring.

01:17Yeah, Jimmy.

01:17Oh.

01:18So here's the thing.

01:19This place is actually a pyramid built on top of a pyramid.

01:22So the deeper we go in, the older things get.

01:24Be careful, boys.

01:25This is so sketchy, Jimmy.

01:26I can't believe the government's letting us do this.

01:28It really is crazy.

01:29Not even archaeologists are allowed to go back here.

01:32How deep underground are we?

01:33And after navigating this ginormous ancient temple,

01:36we finally made it to the end.

01:38Now that we're at the end,

01:39you said you had a surprise.

01:41Yes.

01:41This has been found in the last few decades.

01:44Oh.

01:45Whoa, what?

01:46This is a funerary mask.

01:47This is the face of one of the kings of the snake kingdom.

01:50The Mayans use masks like this one

01:52to shield those that have passed away from dangers

01:55on their journey to the underworld.

01:57Can I hold it?

01:58Yes.

01:59Whoa.

01:59This was made over 1,000 years ago.

02:01Yes.

02:01Which means my great-great-great-great-great-great-grandparents

02:05weren't even alive.

02:06Why is this not in a museum?

02:07Why is a YouTuber holding this?

02:08Get this away from me.

02:09Take it.

02:10Take it.

02:10Don't tell anybody.

02:11Okay.

02:12I totally won't show 200 million people.

02:14That's it for this temple,

02:16but we are in the middle of a giant city

02:18with multiple other ancient temples.

02:21And later in this video,

02:22even visiting the seventh wonder of the world.

02:25Let's find some treasure.

02:26This jungle is full of monkeys,

02:28snakes,

02:28and people have even died to jaguars here.

02:31Well, we survived Snake Island.

02:32Wait, how are we...

02:33Is that a monkey?

02:34Sir?

02:35Sir?

02:36Sir?

02:37Sir?

02:38Sir?

02:42Well, guys, this is where we're going to be camping tonight.

02:46Oh, look at these hammocks.

02:47We still have over a dozen temples to explore.

02:50I need you guys to get some good sleep

02:51because this video is just getting started.

02:56Good morning, boys.

02:58Morning.

02:59First things first,

03:00we need to explore the rest of this massive abandoned city.

03:03And looking at it now,

03:04it's hard to imagine what it might have looked like.

03:06And so, I'll just show you.

03:07Over 100,000 people used to live in this city.

03:11That's what that used to look like.

03:12This is what they think these roads look like.

03:14There were temples everywhere.

03:16It was flourishing.

03:17But on the inside,

03:19you'd witness magnificent artwork like this.

03:21Oh, my God.

03:22Big area.

03:23Whoa.

03:23This is incredible.

03:25One of my favorite part of these videos

03:26is when we take old paintings and bring them to life.

03:29So, this is our best estimation of what they represent.

03:31Bro, this is so cool.

03:32This is a rare glimpse

03:33into what the life of a Mayan looked like

03:352,500 years ago.

03:36This is amazing.

03:37No one really thought that was a llama.

03:39Can we talk about this for a while?

03:39You thought that was a llama?

03:40Because, look, I thought that was the eye,

03:42that was the mouth,

03:42and I thought that was the leg.

03:44Yeah, I thought you...

03:45were smart.

03:46And after I picked on Nolan,

03:48Nolan returned the favor to Tariq with the spider.

03:50Tariq, don't move.

03:51Stop.

03:51Wait, wait, wait.

03:52Oh, wait, wait.

03:55Tariq's gonna quit.

03:56My friends have a strange way of having fun,

03:59but the Mayan way was arguably stranger.

04:01We're standing where a ball court used to exist

04:04over 2,000 years ago.

04:05This was the first ever team sport to use a ball.

04:08As far as we know.

04:09Also, the captain of the losing team's head got cut off.

04:12Yes.

04:16The Mayans are crazy, man.

04:18Whoa.

04:19This is huge.

04:20Yeah.

04:21So beautiful.

04:22Why don't we build temples like this today?

04:24Around 2,000 years ago,

04:26this is where the king and his queen lived,

04:28but 2,500 years ago,

04:29this is what it looked like.

04:31Massive crowds of people would gather here

04:33and even wait for hours

04:35just for a chance to see the king.

04:39And here it is today.

04:40Let's go check it out.

04:41Okay.

04:422,000 years ago,

04:43the king would probably stand here

04:44and watch sports from his palace.

04:47Kind of cool.

04:48Oh, my gosh.

04:49It's kind of like a labyrinth.

04:50Yes, because if you want to protect your king,

04:53you make it confusing.

04:54You make it confusing.

04:55Ernesto, be honest with you.

04:56Has anyone ever pressed this block in

04:58to see if it reveals hidden treasure?

05:00I will not do it.

05:03How about this one?

05:05How about this one?

05:06You're telling me

05:07the king didn't build a hidden treasure room

05:092,600 years ago?

05:10Maybe, yes, but it's hidden.

05:12With the hopes of finding the king's treasure,

05:14we ventured to a cave deep in the jungle

05:17where the treasure may lie.

05:18Hey, Jimmy did not say anything about bats, bro.

05:20Oh, my good joke.

05:21There's so many bats.

05:23It is right behind our heads.

05:24The Mayas, they used to think

05:25that this is the mouth of the monster of the earth.

05:27Look above us right now.

05:28We're surrounded by bats.

05:30Thousands of bats swerving us.

05:32Dude, it's a bat tornado.

05:33If there is a Mayan treasure there,

05:34it's under tons of...

05:36Bat poop.

05:36I feel like I've already found my treasure.

05:38This is beautiful.

05:39We're going to leave.

05:39There's a lot of bats.

05:40I would prefer if you go faster.

05:41Oh, I got food on!

05:43Oh!

05:44Oh!

05:46For me, this is a real treasure.

05:48Oh!

05:51Oh, yeah.

05:51The last thing.

05:52Get out of here.

05:53You got to get out of here.

05:54There's absolutely no treasure here.

05:55But there's still one more temple

05:56that might have treasure.

05:58And because it's already dark out...

05:59Boys, light your torches

06:01and let's go on an adventure.

06:02Our torches go out

06:03before we get to an ancient temple.

06:05I'm going to be very sad.

06:06Temple.

06:07Temple.

06:08Temple.

06:09This is so much cooler

06:10with just torches.

06:12Let's see what this bad boy looks like.

06:14I feel like an ancient adventure.

06:16But as it turns out...

06:17All right, it's a dead end.

06:17This didn't go well either.

06:19Everything's a dead end.

06:20Oh!

06:21Oh, my God!

06:22What was that?

06:22There's like a monkey up there.

06:24Is that a monkey or a jaguar?

06:26Why is this video becoming scary all of a sudden?

06:28Make sure you sleep well tonight

06:29because I have a big surprise for you in the morning.

06:31Let me guess.

06:32You guys thought the dozens of ancient temples

06:34in this city was the entire video.

06:36Yeah.

06:37Yeah, I think so.

06:37Send the helicopter back.

06:39Because to explore even further,

06:40we were going to need a lift.

06:42I'm climbing these stairs like a dog.

06:44We're almost there.

06:45There's our ride.

06:48We gotta go.

06:49Let's go explore some more temples.

06:51And where we're going

06:52has some of the craziest ancient remains

06:54ever built by mankind.

06:57And to kick off this location,

06:58we're going to visit this bad boy,

07:00which the Mayans used to call

07:02the gateway to the underworld.

07:04Back in the day,

07:04there used to be giant fangs here.

07:06What happened to them?

07:07They fell off.

07:08That seems logical.

07:10Let's go explore.

07:11Whoa.

07:12This is awesome.

07:13There's some very special features

07:15that I love,

07:15like that structure in the middle.

07:17Wow.

07:17I'm going to guess this building

07:18was the temple.

07:19Was it for sacrifices?

07:20Yes, you guessed it.

07:21Yes!

07:22I guess I'm right.

07:23What a nerd.

07:24Throw off his hat.

07:24What our guide really wanted to show us

07:26was a cave which Mayans believed

07:28humans emerged from.

07:30The Maya believed that humanity

07:32came from a cave.

07:33Deep inside of there

07:34is what they call the tree of life.

07:35And they believed that all of us

07:37spawned from this very majestic,

07:38beautiful tree deep in this cave.

07:40It's so sacred

07:41that we're going to do a ceremony

07:42to ask for permission

07:43to the spirits of the cave.

07:44If I was a betting man,

07:45I'd say the spirits

07:46are going to reject Nolan.

07:48As we entered the cave...

07:49Whoa.

07:50Okay.

07:51This definitely looks sacred.

07:53We were met with the ritual

07:54our guide spoke of.

07:55What is he doing now?

07:56He's purifying the entrance of the cave.

07:58And it's here

07:59where we would seek

08:00the approval of the gods.

08:02Naturally,

08:02I wasn't worried at all.

08:04But were the gods

08:04really about to let Nolan

08:06enter this sacred place?

08:07I hope they accept me.

08:09Bye.

08:10Bye.

08:11Bye.

08:14I think it's good.

08:15Oh.

08:16What's he doing?

08:19Is he good?

08:22Come on.

08:23The spirits didn't reject him.

08:24Thank goodness.

08:24So, with the gods

08:25officially on our side,

08:27we started our journey

08:28for the tree of life.

08:29But the deeper

08:29into the cave we went,

08:31the hotter it got.

08:32Is it just me

08:32or is it only getting hotter

08:33in this cave?

08:34He's getting hotter

08:34and the air is going to be

08:36more difficult to breathe.

08:37More difficult to breathe.

08:37Yeah.

08:37I'm so high right now.

08:39The deeper you go in the cave,

08:40the thinner the air gets.

08:41I don't know if you can see the sweat.

08:43It's really hot here.

08:44This cave just keeps on going.

08:45But at least there's no bats.

08:47Everything you guys are seeing now,

08:48the Mayans didn't want us to see.

08:50They literally tried sealing this off.

08:51Imagine being a Maya 2,000 years ago.

08:54See this beautiful cave

08:55and all of a sudden,

08:56see this beautiful room.

08:58Whoa.

08:58And the amazing tree.

09:00Oh.

09:00Am I the only one that thought

09:01the tree of life was an actual tree?

09:04Yes, this is it.

09:04This is a sacred saber

09:05that holds the sky.

09:07Are these pots around it

09:08the same pots the Mayans created?

09:10Yes, sir.

09:11So the tall ones,

09:12they put incense

09:12and they burn it

09:13to get the attention of the gods.

09:15This is very cool.

09:17If you were a Mayan

09:17thousands of years ago

09:18and actually believe

09:19that this is where humans came from,

09:21I understand why they

09:22thought this was so sacred.

09:24Of course, of course.

09:25But this cave

09:26is about to get really dangerous

09:27because where we're going next,

09:29we will literally need

09:30an oxygen tank to breathe.

09:31Why do I keep doing things

09:33in videos that could kill me?

09:36It is so hard.

09:38Yeah!

09:40So after a few deep breaths

09:42to top off on oxygen,

09:44how deep are we going?

09:45About two football fields.

09:46Yo, I'm going to stay up here.

09:48You're always backing out on it.

09:49He said there was no oxygen.

09:50I don't want to hear it.

09:51And Nolan may have been

09:52onto something

09:52because at the literal

09:53first thing our guide

09:54wanted to show us...

09:56Oh.

09:56Whoa.

09:57I'm dizzy.

09:58Are you good?

09:59I'm good.

10:00Whether you like it or not,

10:00you're going to get some oxygen.

10:02Breathe.

10:04Anyways, what were you saying?

10:05Well, there's some

10:06ceramic pot shards.

10:07Whoa.

10:08This is so cool.

10:10Can I take one home?

10:11Well, I do.

10:12We'll go to jail.

10:13I would go to jail?

10:14Yeah, sure.

10:14All right.

10:15I won't take one home.

10:16Dude, I can't believe

10:17they actually believe me.

10:19They're so cold.

10:21They're so cold.

10:22I found a boy

10:22that didn't scare them.

10:23Look at all the bats

10:24in this tunnel.

10:25Let's continue.

10:26Wait, I actually,

10:27unironically,

10:28I don't know,

10:29do bats bite humans?

10:30I found a hiding spot.

10:31Oh, there's a bat.

10:33Jimmy, get you a hit

10:33of this oxygen.

10:35So we're only getting deeper.

10:36Here, get you some.

10:37Air is getting thicker.

10:38But as we got closer

10:39to the end,

10:40we were confronted

10:40by the final boss

10:42of this secret tunnel.

10:43See those, uh,

10:44the stalactites?

10:46Oh, wait.

10:47Jimmy, behind you

10:47is the biggest spider

10:48in the world.

10:48Oh, my God.

10:50What did the Mayans

10:51give the insects down here?

10:52Why do you think

10:53the world's largest spider

10:54is at the end

10:55of a secret tunnel

10:56in the most sacred place

10:57of the Mayans?

10:58It's protecting something.

10:58What do you think?

10:59I think so.

11:00So instead of fighting

11:02the final boss,

11:03we let the secret tunnel

11:05keep its secrets.

11:07Oh, my gosh.

11:09That was terrifying.

11:10I almost threw

11:11the oxygen tank

11:11right at your face.

11:12And after escaping

11:13with our lives,

11:14we were exhausted.

11:15So we headed

11:15to our new camp

11:16to turn in.

11:17Because not only

11:18were we going to need

11:19our energy

11:19for the seventh wonder

11:20of the world,

11:21but for day four,

11:22I wanted to know

11:23what the Mayans did

11:23for fun,

11:24starting with

11:25the first ever

11:26team-based game

11:26to use a ball.

11:27Over 3,000 years ago,

11:29the Mayans invented

11:30the game of pits,

11:31where you score

11:31by shooting a ball

11:32through a small hoop,

11:33kind of like basketball,

11:35only you can't use

11:36your hands or your feet.

11:37But remember what we said

11:38all the way back

11:39in day two.

11:40The losing captain's head

11:41would get cut off.

11:43The head?

11:44Ah!

11:44This is hard.

11:50I'd say we're going

11:51to get the hang of it.

11:51And although we started

11:52to get a handle

11:53on the ball,

11:54it's safe to say

11:54we were still far

11:55from scoring.

11:56So I even brought in

11:58our camera guys

11:59to help out.

11:59But even then,

12:00failure after failure

12:02only brought us

12:02countless more failures.

12:08We might not ever score.

12:10But in ancient times,

12:11giving up meant

12:12literally losing your head.

12:13Nolan, you better

12:14stand up, bro.

12:15And so failure

12:16after failure

12:17continued until...

12:21And after a long day

12:28of this brutal sport,

12:30the surviving players

12:31might have celebrated

12:31by heading down

12:32a sinkhole

12:33for a relaxing dip

12:34in the natural pools.

12:35And while I'm not

12:36cutting any heads off,

12:37Nolan did lose at pits.

12:41Is the water cold?

12:42You know,

12:42it's kind of refreshing.

12:43Oh, is it?

12:43Yeah!

12:46Go for it!

12:47Woo!

12:49This water feels amazing!

12:51It doesn't look like

12:52you think it feels amazing.

12:53Oh, it's so cold!

12:54And although a swim

12:54in the cenote

12:55is refreshing,

12:56the craziest Mayan temple,

12:58a literal seventh wonder

12:59of the world,

13:00is still to come.

13:01But first,

13:02a classic Mayan dinner!

13:04So everything

13:05you're seeing here

13:06is what the Mayans

13:07used to eat

13:07over a thousand years ago.

13:09As you've heard

13:09throughout this video,

13:10they worship the corn god.

14:02Thanks to Jack Links,

14:03the best beef jerky,

14:05for providing me

14:05with this awesome

14:06birthday present.

14:07And I'll see you guys

14:07at the seventh wonder

14:08of the world.

14:10And with the last remaining

14:11hours of our trip here,

14:12it's the moment

14:13you've all been waiting for.

14:15The seventh wonder

14:16of the world,

14:17the temple of Kugoukhan.

14:19Whoa, this is so cool.

14:21I can't believe

14:22we're actually here.

14:23Kugoukhan is one

14:24of the seven wonders

14:25of the world,

14:26partially for its grand size,

14:27but weirdly enough,

14:28also for the way it sounds.

14:30The Mayans somehow

14:31constructed this in a way

14:32where if you clap

14:33in front of it,

14:34you hear what sounds

14:35like a laser

14:36coming back at you.

14:40All right, anyways,

14:41what we actually

14:42came here for.

14:43At the top of this pyramid

14:44is a temple

14:45so sacred to the locals

14:46that no one

14:47is allowed up there,

14:48which begs the question

14:49of what Mayan secrets

14:51lay in that ancient

14:52room.

14:53Out of respect

14:53for the culture

14:54and all the people

14:54who hold this very sacred,

14:56we are not going

14:56to touch the temple.

14:58Instead,

14:59we're going to fly

14:59this drone up

15:00to see what's

15:01in that secret room.

15:02You cool with this?

15:03Yeah, this is cool.

15:05Godspeed.

15:07Oh my gosh,

15:08this looks so majestic.

15:09I'm dying to know.

15:11All right,

15:11let's see what's

15:11in this room.

15:14Wait.

15:15Arthur,

15:16the room's empty.

15:17Well,

15:18500 years ago,

15:20the Spanish came here

15:21and they take

15:21a lot of the

15:22stuff inside.

15:23But before everything

15:24was sadly stolen,

15:26this is what historians

15:27believe the seventh wonder

15:28of the world

15:29looked like.

15:30I'm not going to lie,

15:31it's actually

15:31very beautiful.

15:33And while we didn't

15:33find any gold,

15:34I'm grateful that

15:35I could even visit

15:36these ancient monuments

15:37and share it with you guys.

15:38Thank you so much.

15:39Guys,

15:40I love you, Mexico.

15:41It's been great.

15:42See you later.
