00:01The trouble with being a kid today is you grow up too quickly.
00:04There's just not enough time.
00:06Well, for some kids, that is.
00:13Where are we this time?
00:15Horrible Histories!
00:17Wow!
00:18Horrible Histories!
00:21Who would do that?
00:23A smart, hungry caveman. Good idea.
00:26Have any of you seen a girl about so tall, big, cartoony eyes?
00:31Oh, you gotta go.
00:32You gotta go.
00:33And where's Santa? I can't find him anyway.
00:36Wow! Socrates rocks!
00:39Is that the Spanish Armada?
00:42Horrible Histories!
00:45Horrible Histories!
00:48Horrible Histories!
00:51Well, Mo, what do you think about all this cool old...
00:55stuff?
00:57We're history!
01:15We know you're in there, Stitch! Come out with your hands up!
01:18No! No way you're taking me alive!
01:21Your friend has been watching far too many cowboy movies.
01:25Yeah, that. Plus, he's a teeniest bit sensitive about needles.
01:29He should have thought of that before he sat on that rusty remote control car.
01:33That antenna was kinda sharp, wasn't it, Stitch? Great idea, Stitch.
01:38Hey, I thought it would get me to class faster.
01:41Look, you need a tetanus shot, young man, to get rid of the poison in your...
01:45well, your post-lateral gluteus maximus.
01:49Translation? Your bum!
01:51Without this shot, you'll have to suffer all sorts of nasty things.
01:55Nasty things? Like what?
01:57Oh, you know, the usual spasms, fever, lockjaw, possible death.
02:02Uh, let me try something, Nurse Rictus.
02:07What's the matter with you?
02:09Just a healthy fear of nurses with needles. It's all so... so... barbaric.
02:15Ha! You don't know how lucky you are.
02:18What's so lucky about getting shot?
02:21A couple of dozen answers come to mind, but you should see for yourselves.
02:24Arrivederci, you two!
02:36Ouch! It's really getting tender back there.
02:40Disgusting! This water tastes like sweat! Where are we?
02:45In the Middle Ages, near the Italian city of Genoa.
02:49It's the Renaissance. The year is 1351, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa has only been finished for a year now, and it's already leaning.
02:58But amidst these times, there lurks something horrible. A stench that can only be known as... death.
03:05Dumb! Dumb! Dumb! Dumb!
03:10You're right! That's my deadly stench!
03:13Excuse me. What are you doing?
03:16That is not a bathtub. It is my laundry. And you are soaking in my lord's undergarments.
03:22Yuck!
03:23Ew!
03:26I hope this lord guy is paying you a lot of money to wash his undies.
03:29Don't be silly. I am a serf. The lowest ever the low. I have to wash anything he wishes.
03:38Sorry for landing in your laundry. My name's Mo, and this is my mate, Stitch.
03:42Nicer to meet you. My name is Lucia. Now, if you don't mind, I must get back to my washing.
03:48Say, uh, we're kind of new around here. You know where I can get my bum numb?
03:52He needs a doctor's help. Now where we can find one.
03:58Oh, yes. Come. I will take you to my lord's house.
04:07I didn't know the renaissance was so cool. People get to nap wherever they want.
04:12Oh, they are not napping. They are dead.
04:15Dum dum dum!
04:17Hey! What's going on here?
04:22Oh, just a little thing called the plague.
04:26But, hey, why don't I paint you a complete picture? Here's how it all started.
04:34The plague is a disease that's also known as the bubonic plague.
04:38Dum dum dum!
04:40Or the Black Death.
04:42Dum dum!
04:43And it's been knocking around for over 2,000 years.
04:47In fact, it was first recorded in China as early as 224 BCE.
04:52Ah!
04:57The plague really made a name for itself when it spread westward
05:02to India and the Mediterranean, affecting lives, cities, and every aspect of medieval society.
05:09In 1348, the plague finally reached Italy.
05:13Dum dum dum dum!
05:16Where it was believed to have been spread by trade ships.
05:19People were dying left and right.
05:22Ah! Ah!
05:24Turning these ships into ghost ships before they ever reached port.
05:29And once they landed, so did the plague.
05:32Dum dum dum dum!
05:35Ah!
05:36Blimey!
05:37Nice to know we've arrived at such a happy and festive time!
05:41Excuse me, pal, but is there a doctor in the house?
05:46I am a member of that armored profession.
05:50Vindictus is the name, and healing with miracle cures is my game.
05:55Okay, will you take a look at me? I've got a really sore-
05:58Get in line, young man.
05:59I can only cure one patient at a time, and the lord of the manor was here first.
06:05Your troubles are over, my lord.
06:08You're gonna make chicken soup?
06:10No!
06:11It is my greatest discovery.
06:13A chicken with a shaved bottom guaranteed to cure the plague.
06:17Is this for real?
06:19You bet your fat chicken it is.
06:20At a time when no cure existed, people tried all sorts of wacky treatments.
06:27Sitting between bonfires was very popular.
06:30There was even a vicar who placed dead wolves' bodies in a barrel,
06:33thinking that the plague would feed on the wolf skin instead of a human victim.
06:39As was standing in front of a latrine and inhaling the fumes.
06:43They even tried rubbing fresh butter all over their bodies,
06:46a remedy believed to soak up the evil spirits of the plague.
06:50So if you ate corn on the cob, you could rub it along your chest and-
06:53Please stop it.
06:55Okay, my lord.
06:57Your cure! You can stand up now.
06:59Up, my lord.
07:00Up!
07:07He's dead.
07:09Dead?
07:11So much for my great discovery.
07:13Now what do I do?
07:15Those cluckers were going to be my big ticket out of this flea-infested rat hole of a village.
07:19I've just got to find a cure before anyone else does.
07:23That's very noble of you, Dr. Vindictus.
07:26Noble? Who cares about that?
07:28All I want is to become famous.
07:30Because you know what happens when you're famous.
07:33You get your face on cereal boxes?
07:36You get famously, filledly, famously rich!
07:39So, Doc, how's about giving me a look-see?
07:42My bum's throbbing away like a hot air balloon.
07:47Mamma mia! That's disgusting!
07:50So what have I got, Doc?
07:52Oh, nothing much.
07:54Just an open wound, darkening around the eyes, and woohoo!
07:57The stench!
07:58Well, it's not my fault the ordering hasn't been invented around here yet.
08:02Eh-heh-heh!
08:03I tell you what.
08:04Feel free to, eh, stop by my office any time.
08:09Your friend is a goner.
08:10He's definitely finito.
08:11One cooked goose.
08:13If my chicken treatment had worked, eh, maybe he would have had a chance.
08:15Oh, well, too bad.
08:16Ciao!
08:18You feel better after seeing the doctor, right?
08:24Stink!
08:25Maybe you should lie down.
08:27I've got a better idea, Mo.
08:28Let's go to the city.
08:29I've got to find someone who can soothe my...
08:31Ow!
08:33Leave!
08:34I cannot leave the manor without a permission from my feudal lord and master.
08:40Something tells me he won't mind.
08:43I have never left this manor.
08:45Although I have heard the city has a lot of wonderful things to wash.
08:50All right.
08:51Let us go.
08:56Whoa!
08:57Who's that look?
08:58They're called bikini.
08:59Thieves who swept through the land pillaging and stealing from plague victims.
09:04The bikini have us surrounded.
09:06We are doomed!
09:07Dum-dum-dum!
09:10We need to shake these guys.
09:11Ready?
09:13Quick, follow me.
09:15This laundry chute leads outside.
09:20Whoa!
09:26So, where do you think we can find a doctor around here?
09:29That can wait, Mo.
09:30They're having a barbecue.
09:34Come on, let's see what's cooking.
09:38Hey, join the party, pal.
09:39We're all gonna go sometime, right?
09:42Ah-ha!
09:43Woo-hoo!
09:44Yow!
09:46With the plague everywhere, why are people celebrating?
09:50Because the Black Death affected different people in different ways.
09:56Most everyone thought it was the end of the world and reaction to this idea took many forms.
10:01After the plague reached Italy, it spread like wildfire.
10:07Dum-dum-dum!
10:09Dum-dum!
10:10Dum-dum!
10:12Businesses were abandoned and towns were deserted.
10:14And with such a shortage in labour, peasants who could work began to rise in society, filling jobs they'd never dreamed of before.
10:25And finally, there were those who just wanted to party, figuring that song and revelry was the only remedy for so much sorrow.
10:33Well, I suppose you can't blame them.
10:36Yeah, I'd go a little crazy too if I thought the world was ending.
10:42Hey, what are you shooting at?
10:45The air! To scare away the plague!
10:48Dum-dum!
10:50Well, I guess this makes as much sense as chicken under armpits and butter baths.
10:54Right you are, Stitch.
10:56Many people thought that the plague was transmitted through the air, so they tried to break it up using loud noises.
11:03Hey, that's it! I'm fresh on the cannonballs!
11:07Too bad! Looks like you could sure use them against that lot!
11:12Oh, it's the Tartars! They've come to seek their revenge!
11:17The Tartars were from Central Asia.
11:20When the plague first spread through Asia,
11:22Dum-dum-dum!
11:24The Tartars blamed it on the Italians.
11:27To get revenge, they attacked in a most unusual way.
11:30Take the cover! And don't touch anything!
11:35Ew! Was that what I thought it was?
11:39They're flinging bodies at us!
11:41It might seem incredible, but it's true. The Tartars lobbed the corpses of plague victims over the city walls, and ended up spreading the disease. It was the original germ warfare.
11:53Run for your lives! The plague!
11:57Dum-dum!
11:59The plague!
12:01Dum-dum!
12:02The plague!
12:03The plague!
12:04The plague!
12:05The plague!
12:06The plague!
12:07The plague!
12:08The plague!
12:09The plague!
12:10The plague!
12:11The plague!
12:12The plague!
12:13The plague!
12:14The plague!
12:15Is the doctor in? I got a bum that's becoming a real bummer.
12:18How is it, Stitch? We don't want to scare the man.
12:21Can we see the doctor?
12:23He's busy. Go away.
12:27No, Sir Hemlock. This can only look fresh to you.
12:33Dumb-dumb!
12:34You're alive!
12:37Hiya, Dr. Vindictus.
12:39I was just tossing them out, doctor.
12:42What? And throw away my chance at a fame?
12:45If I can find out what is keeping this boy alive, I'll finally be a famous!
12:49Say, you gonna eat that cannoli?
12:51Come, Miracle Boy. I must examine you.
12:54Then you can have some cannoli.
12:56Right on.
12:58Does any of this stuff really work?
13:00Will you please stop messing with that?
13:03It's a very expensive equipment.
13:05Here, I'm going to run some tests on you.
13:08If he's not using magic to keep him alive, then the secret must be inside.
13:12Inside, perhaps in something he ate.
13:16That's it!
13:17I'll make him...
13:18Ha-ha-ha-ha!
13:19Spill his guns!
13:21Quick, drink this.
13:25Tasty, what was that?
13:27Just a little something made from swamp fungus and lizard parts.
13:31It makes one, how you say, regurgitate, expectorate...
13:36Uh, barf?
13:37Tasty. Got any more?
13:39I have never seen such a thing.
13:42Your body is like a freak of nature!
13:45You know how many people have told me that?
13:47My body, you are a medical marvel!
13:51A goldmine!
13:52Don't move!
13:54No seblanc.
13:55I'm making history.
13:56I have found the cure to the plague.
13:58Are you talking about the skinny kid?
14:01Yes!
14:02He has something inside of him that's keeping him alive!
14:05Are you sure he has the plague?
14:08Do I look like a fool?
14:10Of course he does!
14:12I'm brilliant, remember?
14:13I'll show him off to the snooty-tooty big-leaky doctors at the University of Bologna
14:18and become famous!
14:19Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
14:22Come, come.
14:23You will be my guest at the University of Bologna.
14:26I love Bologna on sandwiches.
14:28I'm there.
14:31Don't go, Stan!
14:32It's a trick.
14:38Excuse me, officer.
14:39Don't look now, but the people in that building have it a plague!
14:42Dun-dum!
14:49Uh, what's happening?
14:51They're breaking up the building.
14:53He's always been a lousy boss, but how could he do this to me?
14:58This is not good!
15:00Dun-dum-dum!
15:04Dun-dum!
15:05Dun-dum!
15:05Dun-dum!
15:09This is ridiculous.
15:10I can't believe they cemented up a whole building with us inside!
15:15This is the plague, Moe, and people were desperate.
15:19Town officials wouldn't hesitate to board or brick up a place that had the disease.
15:23There were cases where an entire family would get sealed up together.
15:26Dun-dum!
15:27And we're going to rot if we don't all bust out of here.
15:35Are you okay?
15:37Yeah. Much better after seeing that.
15:41How are we going to get up there?
15:44With the laundry.
15:46Lucia, is that all you ever think of?
15:48What I mean is, we can tie the clothes together and make a rope.
15:52Now you're talking, Lucia.
15:57Vindictus said he was taking Stich to the city of Bologna.
16:08Is there any way you could get us there, Nurse Hemlock?
16:10Nurse Hemlock?
16:12He ditched us!
16:14Why, that no-good yellow-bellied, back-stabbing, long-lanky...
16:19Oh, paddy old pal!
16:22There you are. Like I said, Hemlock, you in a bit!
16:25Let's hurry. We've got a Stich to catch and a Doc to stop.
16:37So, how's my favorite medical patient doing?
16:41Oh, you know, just hanging.
16:44Where I come from, that's called comedy gold.
16:47Let me out of here, you laughless monster!
16:53Watch it!
16:54Just because I've been after you, brought you to this faraway city, and tied you up in a cage, is no reason to get a...
17:00How you say?
17:00Sleepy!
17:02Why are you doing this?
17:03I told you, I don't have the plague or the cure.
17:06Right!
17:07And my mama doesn't make it a spicy meatball!
17:09It is time I present you to the medical tribunal!
17:14Man, this is not cool.
17:16I'm hungry, I miss Moe, and my butt's throbbing!
17:19If only I had taken that tetanus shot, I wouldn't be in this mess.
17:25Okay, the coast is clear!
17:31Let's just hope Stitch is in here!
17:33We're running out of rooms!
17:34And time!
17:35Ah, it's you two again!
17:38Out of my way!
17:46So what do we do now?
17:48Give me a minute.
17:49I'll think of something.
17:54Science!
17:55This medical tribunal is now in session.
17:58Doctor Vindictus, you claim to have made a groundbreaking discovery.
18:02As you can see, he's sort of the, eh, quiet type, so I'll do the talking.
18:13He should be dead!
18:14And yet he's not.
18:15Which leads me to only one conclusion.
18:18He's got the cure for the plague!
18:21Oh, he's got the cure!
18:22He's got the cure!
18:22I don't believe it!
18:25Stitch hasn't a plague?
18:27Dumb-dumb!
18:29Nah, no plague.
18:30Just a sore thumb.
18:31And, eh, how do you know that your conclusions are right, Doctor?
18:36You dare question Vindictus?
18:40Doctor, you have come before this tribunal 14 separate times, and in each case you have
18:45a job to conclusions.
18:47Yes, I did.
18:48But this is different.
18:50Just look at him.
18:51Darkened eyes.
18:52Foul stench.
18:53Open wound.
18:55There's no reason he should be alive.
18:57I'll stake my medical license on it.
18:59Uh-huh.
19:01So, where is his boo-boo?
19:06It's right here.
19:10Oh, it's a boo-boo.
19:12That's a boo-boo.
19:13This is only an infected blister, probably the result of something poking him.
19:19But it's definitely not a plague.
19:22You see, I tried to tell you, but you just wouldn't listen.
19:25It seems you are wrong again, Vindictus.
19:28Now, hand over your medical license.
19:30Back off, or I'll throw away...
19:32What?
19:33No, no, I'll throw away this inkwell at you.
19:37I'm not a kidding.
19:39You just want to steal my discovery.
19:41That skinny freak is a mine.
19:44Hey, uh, watch it with the name calling, how about?
19:49Arrivederci, son.
19:51Come on, Lucia.
19:52This is where we step in.
19:54Hey, nice catch, Moe.
20:07Hello, Doctor.
20:09Remember me.
20:12This is an affair.
20:13I'm a genius, don't you get it?
20:15I don't want to be squashed into a spicy meatball!
20:18Yeah, grazie for your help here.
20:23It would be nice to have found the cure, but someday we will.
20:27We just have to keep searching.
20:29I only wish this stain was as easy to get rid of as Vindictus.
20:33I could get that out for you.
20:35A little rubbing alcohol, and it's as good as new.
20:38Oh, fantastico.
20:41We could use someone like you around here.
20:43How would you like to be the university's chief launderer?
20:46Me?
20:47No longer a lowly, humble serf?
20:50All right.
20:51When can I start?
20:52Right now.
20:56Well, I suppose Lucia's happy.
20:59Yeah, but for how long?
21:01What's to save her from the plague?
21:02Dum-dum!
21:05Oh, don't worry about Lucia.
21:06Her cleanliness is a healthy habit.
21:09Working in all that soapy water helps to ward off the germs.
21:13So, do they ever find a cure?
21:16Yeah, but not in the Middle Ages.
21:20It wasn't until 1894 that the French scientist, Alexandre Yersin, discovered the bacteria that caused the plague.
21:28Dum-dum!
21:29The bacteria came from fleas on rats, so the spread of disease could finally be controlled.
21:38Eventually, antibiotics were found to treat the dreaded disease.
21:42I have to admit, medicine has come a long, long way.
21:48I should be thankful there's even a cure for...
21:50Ow!
21:51What I have, needles or not.
21:53I think you've got the point, Stitch.
21:56Now, let's get you back to that tetanus shot before you get cold feet.
22:00Or lockjaw.
22:02Alright, Nurse Eryctus.
22:03Give it to me.
22:04My mind is at peace.
22:06My body knows no pain.
22:08All done.
22:09My butt is robust.
22:11My glu...
22:11What?
22:12Huh?
22:13I already gave you the shot.
22:15So cured?
22:16That's it?
22:17Pretty much.
22:18Just don't go riding around on any more toy cars.
22:22You see, needles aren't so bad.
22:24You're right.
22:25They'll never plague me again.
22:27Dum-dum-dum!
22:29You see, needles aren't so bad.
22:59The trouble with being a kid today is you grow up too quickly.
23:06There's just not enough time.
23:08Well, for some kids, that is.
23:15Where are we this time?
23:17Horrible Histories.
23:18Wow!
23:20Horrible Histories.
23:23Who would do that?
23:25A smart, hungry caveman.
23:27Good idea.
23:28Have any of you seen a girl about so tall, big, cartoony eyes?
23:33Oh, and you gotta go.
23:34You gotta go.
23:35And wait, Stitcher can't fight him anyway.
23:38Wow!
23:39Socrates rocks!
23:42Is that the Spanish Armada?
23:44Horrible Histories.
23:47Horrible Histories.
23:48Well, Mo, what do you think about all this cool old stuff?
23:59We're history!
24:00Mo, we're in luck.
24:15Mr. Weedledum isn't here.
24:17And you know what that means.
24:21Substitute teacher!
24:22Yeah, maybe we'll get to watch a movie instead of study.
24:25Yeah, and definitely no homework!
24:28Oh, you'll have lots of homework!
24:32Today is student teacher for a day, Dave.
24:36This isn't happening.
24:38And guess who's been selected to teach you world history today, hmm?
24:42We're trapped inside a nightmare.
24:46Oh!
24:48Please, please, hold your applause.
24:52But do call me Professor Dongle.
24:55Right, we're going to play a little educational game that I so cleverly invented called History.
25:01True or false?
25:02Do I have any volunteers?
25:09Well then, Stitch and Mo, I choose you!
25:19Let's just see if you know what was true and what was false about Christopher Columbus, the great explorer.
25:26Oh, did I mention this little quiz will constitute four-feits of your grade?
25:32A little squirt really has it in for us this time.
25:37And since I'm a good sport, and such a good teacher, I'll give you twenty seconds to get ready.
25:44You go first.
25:46No, you first.
25:47You.
25:47You.
25:48Hey, relax. You know this stuff.
25:50Remember when I zapped you back to the times of Columbus?
25:53Spain, three ships, the new world and all that?
25:59Hey, how about you hypnotize us and we'll have total recall?
26:03That's not necessary.
26:05If we put our heads together, I bet we can remember enough about that trip.
26:09We started back in the year 1471 in Europe.
26:13No one was doing much exploration.
26:15They were too busy fighting religious wars.
26:18Right, Mo.
26:18With all these wars going on, travel on the Mediterranean Sea was extremely dangerous.
26:23Yeah.
26:23So it was really important to open up new sea routes to the riches of the east.
26:28Very good, you two.
26:30And while all this was going on, a tall red-headed teenage Italian bloke set out to sea from his birthplace in the port city of Genoa, Italy.
26:39His name?
26:40Christopher Columbus.
26:43Oh, Christopher, my boy.
26:46Don't catch this curvy and remember your mama.
26:49Look at the mama's boy.
26:53In the second half of the 15th century, the sea was full of obstacles.
26:58Yeah.
26:59The seas were full of pirates, adventurers and more pirates.
27:02Tickety-tockety goes Mr. Waterproof wristwatch.
27:06First question.
27:07Columbus remained a sailor until he became the captain of his own ship.
27:12True or false?
27:14Uh, let's see.
27:15I remember that Columbus started out as a sailor when he was young.
27:20But after a few years, the excitement of living at sea wore off and he set out for better opportunities.
27:26That's right.
27:27Columbus headed for the bright lights in the big city of Lisbon, Portugal.
27:32There he worked for his brother, Bartholomew.
27:39Vos, Columbus didn't stay a sailor.
27:41He became a mapmaker in his brother's shop.
27:44You're right.
27:46Very good, you two.
27:47Keep this up and I'm going to be out of a job.
27:49Yeah.
27:50And remember what happened next?
27:52Columbus had an idea that would change the world.
28:00Columbus wanted to find a new route to India
28:02so he became a serious student of geography and navigation.
28:06There was just one little problem.
28:10I can't understand a word of this strange language.
28:15Why, that is Latin, Christopher.
28:17If Latin be the language of navigation, then I shall learn this new language.
28:22If it kills me.
28:24And Columbus did.
28:25Well, learn it, that is.
28:27Yeah, right.
28:28He learned to read all kinds of geography books and studied the Bible.
28:31The guy was hungry for information.
28:36Christopher, why do you plan to go west when India is clearly to the east?
28:40Are you mad?
28:41No!
28:43It is those Portuguese who are fools to sail the long way around the tip of Africa.
28:49By sailing west, as the crow flies, I will easily reach the Japanese islands.
28:54It would take a miracle to raise a crew for such an insane a voyage.
29:00Soon, I will prove you wrong, brother.
29:02But first, I must find a wife, eh?
29:04Then, I must find a sponsor.
29:06And finally, I must find a tailor.
29:08I need a new uniform with nice sparkly gold buttons.
29:12For gold is the Medal of Exploration.
29:17Columbus was a determined young man.
29:19Some say, to a fault.
29:21He married a rich Portuguese noblewoman, Filippa de Prostrello, who gave him a son, Diego.
29:27Columbus' marriage also gave him connections to the royal court of Portugal,
29:33so he could follow his dreams of adventure.
29:36Too bad he also had some hard times.
29:38Soon after Diego was born, Filippa died.
29:40But Columbus never forgot his dream.
29:43All he needed was money.
29:45So in 1482, he went to meet King John II of Portugal.
29:50Turned out Columbus wasn't alone.
29:51Lots of other guys were looking for money from the king to pay for their inventions and ideas.
29:57Uh, there's a guy here to see you.
29:58Says his name is Lumbus.
29:59Uh, Mr. Cal-Lumbus.
30:03Hey, you.
30:03Step back if you're standing on my foot.
30:05You know what?
30:06When you're doing it, you'll press this little red button.
30:07No, no.
30:08Call him Mr. Lumbus!
30:10Mr. Cal-Lumbus!
30:14So you see, sire, according to my calculations, the shortest route to the east is by sailing west.
30:24East to the west!
30:26East to the west!
30:29Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha!
30:31That's a good one!
30:33Your Highness, I have come to my adopted country first.
30:37However, if the Portuguese court does not wish to accept my proposal,
30:41I will be forced to offer it to your close neighbor.
30:44All right, this next question is going to be so tough, you'll have to take summer school.
30:59Here's another question.
31:01Columbus went to the King and Queen of Spain next, and they turned him down just like the Portuguese did.
31:07Take it, Ma.
31:08Okay, let's see.
31:11Columbus made good on his threat and visited the royal court in Spain.
31:18The shortest route to the east is by sailing west.
31:28No big whoop, so they turned me down for now.
31:31One day, Queen Isabella will change her mind.
31:34And when the time is right, I will have new shiny gold buttons, for gold is the medal of exploration.
31:43True. Spain turned Columbus down too.
31:47Right again. Enough easy questions.
31:51You remember what happened next?
31:53Sure. Columbus never gave up on his dreams of adventure. He went back to Isabella, the Queen of Spain, to try again.
32:00Señor Columbus, since you bring your case to us again, we must presume that you have fresh evidence to support it.
32:10I have no real proof other than the tales of travelers, nor will any man have proof until he goes where no man has gone before.
32:19Beyond the ocean, the final frontier.
32:22Give me ships and I am willing to venture my reputation and my brother's life to bring you the proof, sire.
32:29Isabella really liked Columbus's idea this time around.
32:32Once we have driven the Moors out of Granada, we will grant your request.
32:39I trust you will succeed, Señor Columbus, and Spain shall become as wealthy as she is victorious.
32:46And, uh, by the way, where did you get that fabulous suit?
32:53After centuries of battle, the Spanish finally defeated the Moors at the Battle of Alhambra.
33:02There, they were greeted by Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand. Riches won from the war were given to those lucky few who the Queen liked, and Columbus just happened to be one of them.
33:12First, he wanted to have three sailing ships, the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria, but he didn't stop there.
33:19Uh-uh. Columbus also wanted a 10% share of all new trade, to be the governor of any new lands he'd discover, and the title of Admiral, and a noble rank when he returned.
33:29The Royal Councilors were pretty angry, but they also loved the idea of riches from across the seas.
33:38Try this one! Once Columbus had his ships, he had no trouble finding a crew, because so many sailors wanted to join on his adventure. True or false?
33:47I'll take this one, Moe.
33:50Even though Columbus's great journey was about to begin, it wasn't easy for him to find a crew for such a dangerous voyage.
33:56But it just so happened that Isabella had introduced the Inquisition into Castile, so the prisons were jam-packed with condemned Jews, Moors, and real criminals.
34:05Some of these poor prisoners, only guilty of not abandoning their faith, have the choice of sailing with Columbus or being put to death.
34:12So tell me, mate, do you have any sailing experience?
34:16Take me, sir. I'm not quite dead yet.
34:19I know, free sea shanties.
34:21I'm gonna listen into things.
34:23And guess what? Columbus finally found about a hundred men who thought the voyage sounded like a great idea.
34:29False. Columbus had a terrible time finding a crew.
34:34You're absolutely right!
34:38Then the voyage began.
34:41Columbus commanded the mighty 100-ton Santa Maria.
34:45The Pinta, half its size, was commanded by Martin Alonso Pinzon, a Spanish navigator.
34:51And Vincente, Pinzon's brother, commanded the Nina.
34:54They started their adventure from Palos, Spain, on the third day of August 1492.
35:01But after stopping at the Canary Islands for supplies, the voyage took a nasty turn.
35:06Yeah! The ship sailed for days and days without seeing anything at all.
35:11The crew started spreading nasty rumors about seeing bearded mermaids and the treaded, spitfully killer fish of Asia.
35:17Not to mention they were worried about falling off the edge of the world.
35:21After three weeks of being scared out of their wits, the crew grew angry with Columbus for leading them into danger.
35:27Remember men, the first to sign the land will be rewarded with a lifetime pension.
35:33After about a month or so, the men wanted to mutiny, even if Columbus was promising a reward.
35:38Yeah, they found out that Columbus's father hadn't been a seaman, but a poor weaver.
35:43And Columbus himself had only sailed as far east as the Greek islands, south to the north coast of Africa, though maybe he actually sailed as far as Greenland.
35:51Blister in barnacles! I've walked further than that!
35:55The men were a bit relieved when they learned that some of Columbus's theories of navigation were based on study in the Bible.
36:01But the crew decided that they were all gonna die if they kept going.
36:11Your stew is ready, sir!
36:14Come in, lad!
36:16Listen to this!
36:18We are having a big success!
36:20After being at sea for weeks, we find ourselves three days to landfall!
36:25I can smell it on the wind!
36:30Tell the crew!
36:31Hurry, lad!
36:32I'm having trouble with the crew!
36:39I'm told by trusted men, and these are few in number, that if I persist in going westward, their best course of action would be to dump me overboard some dark night!
36:54My men, you have nothing to fear but fear itself!
37:11This branch floated up to our ship! Safety is near!
37:15I promise you, we will turn back if we don't see land in seven days!
37:20In five days?
37:25Will you take three?
37:31Land!
37:32Land!
37:33Two o'clock and all is well!
37:37Land!
37:40For the lookout, Rodrigo, it was a great moment.
37:43He was very poor, so Columbus's promised reward meant a lifetime of security.
37:48But guess what? Columbus took it away when he claimed he had seen land an instant earlier through the pork cabin window.
37:57Hey, uh, excuse me, Rodrigo, I saw it first. Really, I did!
38:03It was an historic date, October 12th, 1492.
38:08Columbus thought he had reached an island of the East Indies near India or China.
38:13He was actually thousands of miles from India, having landed in the Caribbean islands, 50 miles southeast of the United States.
38:22I claim this island in the name of Spain and our sovereigns, Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand.
38:30And I named thee...
38:32No!
38:34San Salvador!
38:38The gate to the Golden Pearls is now open.
38:41And precious stones, spices and a thousand other valuable shiny things may surely be expected.
38:47When Columbus found the people of this new land, he was told that they called themselves Indians.
38:55True or false?
38:57Do you remember the look on Columbus's face when he first saw them?
39:02Captain!
39:03Captain!
39:04Captain!
39:05Hey, you idiot!
39:06Let us greet the...
39:07The Indians!
39:08False!
39:09Professor Dongle!
39:10Columbus is the one who named them.
39:11He was surprised to find them in the first place.
39:12And, thinking he had landed off the coast of India, he made up the name Indians.
39:15Oh, the lights again!
39:17Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
39:20Remember how Columbus surprised the Indians as well?
39:37They couldn't believe the Spaniards had never seen their native foods before, but they were
39:41native foods before but they were very friendly and eager to please them too bad columbus returned
39:47their kindness by taking advantage of them dear your majesty when your highness saw commands
39:56the indians as i've named them can be carried off to castile or held captive on the island itself
40:0350 men could convert them keep them in subjugation and force them to do whatever you wished
40:08as they are very easily influenced columbus then explored cuba thinking he was in asia
40:19this is obviously part of china kindly tell us where is the gold
40:28columbus's indians actually called themselves tainos their villages were small and clean with
40:33nicely decorated thatch dwellings well chief what do you think of these newcomers i was
40:43amazed when i saw ships from the east i didn't know there was any land that way even stranger was their
40:49pale skin and hairy faces at first i thought they just wanted food and water so i gave it to them
40:56generously i thought they wanted our friendship but all they kept asking about was gold what's gold
41:06it's that shiny yellow rock they get excited over rocks and then they seized seven of our women and
41:13three children i worry that if they can't find gold rocks they will take us into slavery i'm beginning to
41:21think we have a slight problem on our hands crossing from cape marsy in cuba to the north coast of haiti
41:28and the dominican republic columbus explored further i have found an island that so reminds me of a spain
41:35that i call it my mini spain his spaniola its plains are the loveliest in the world our lord in your
41:44goodness guide me so that i may find gold there somewhere mo remember what happened on christmas eve
41:531492 the santa maria hit a reef and was permanently grounded columbus was so mad i'm assuming i could
42:03squeeze a spicy meatball since the taino leader was unfamiliar with christian holidays the crew
42:15invited him to join their christmas festivities and after that columbus returned to spain to get another
42:22ship most of the crew wanted to stay behind because they were so excited about finding riches but first
42:27they were ordered to build a fort columbus called it la navidad christmas in honor of the day the sailors
42:34started construction as columbus took off for spain all right then here's a real toughie columbus's men
42:45who stayed behind were treated very well by the tainos true of those easy breezy
42:54two weeks later a band of tainos were angry that columbus's crew had captured their women
43:01and they assaulted them the attack started the new year with a sense of dread for the spanish colonists
43:10boss instead of being treated well the crew was attacked by the tainos
43:15and that just about does it a stitch yep as columbus returned to spain he hoped to impress the queen
43:25with an account of his adventure dear your highness hello it's a me the indians named copyright columbus
43:351492 were very friendly and pleased with us also there are many spices exotic creatures and precious mines
43:43that we have found as well as some very unusual golden nuggets excellent for buttons for gold is the
43:52medal of exploration columbus arrived back at paulus spain on march 15 1493 he was very excited thinking
44:02he had found a route to india columbus was awarded everything promised to him even though he had landed in
44:08the wrong place to our great explorer christopher columbus we confer all the honors and titles we have
