Go hey guys how you doing this is rich from rich tv live with a very very special opportunity to see a landmark in the world chichen itza one of the largest pyramids in the world over 1.4 million tourists come and see chichen itza every year and we are here today for my very first time i couldn’t be more excited welcome to chichen itza this is a very special
Place here this is where they used to play sport where they would try to keep the ball in the air and then get it through those little hoops and this was like modern this is like ancient gladiator days where these athletes would play and the winning team would survive and the losing team would actually die so they played to the death amazing amazing history here
Beautiful architecture you can see the size of this field it’s just enormous bigger than a soccer field i would say but the punishment for the losing team was death so kind of like modern day gladiators but instead of fighting playing sport where the winning team survives and the losing team uh loses their life so pretty interesting place being on this field is
Very interesting because you can almost feel the energy of all the people that have played here and you can see it’s just an enormous field just absolutely enormous breathtaking oh the sculpture’s over there okay these are the sculptures of the winners and the losers the losers have the biggest sacrifice which is beheading and the winners there’s a sound here
That is made which sounds like a bird specifically in this location here in chichen itza would you like to play here more inscriptions telling the story of the winners and the losers of the game so much detail in the stone the stones tell the story and then wherever you go you see these serpent heads the detail and the serpent head of the stone must remind you
These have been done for hundreds and hundreds of years please make a line right here facing the side okay sculptures in stone inscriptions in the stone hello this is where the mayans used to come on this platform and you can see the structures and the scriptures there’s so much detail in these stones it’s unreal and it’s everywhere it’s a little wooden
Thing excuse me um music oh because it was not my time hey guys this is one of my favorite places with chichen itza you can see here all the temples they say there’s a thousand temples here and this was a landing spot for ufos now nobody knows because this was hundreds of years ago what exactly happened here but it looks like there’s a whole city here so
It looks like this was a place where lots of different things were happening i don’t know exactly what but it seems as though there was lots of rituals here a lot of different events obviously we showed you guys the sporting event area it was a massive feel and you can see the pyramids you can see all the sculptures and there’s so many sculptures that have and
Stones that have stories in them here it’s unreal we could be here almost for weeks trying to uncover everything there’s so much to look at but i’m gonna do my best to show you guys as much as possible take a look one recording so the mayans are well known for all of this and they’re also known for the mayan calendar which is detail the amount of days in the
Year the amount of weeks in the year and a lot of these a lot of the the sculptures a lot of the stairs a lot of the design takes into account the days and the weeks of the year and there’s a lot of that in everything that we see here so it’s incredible that they created this hundreds of years ago but they were so advanced when it came to architecture it’s
A beautiful beautiful architecture these temples are just breathtaking you can see panthers in these sculptures in the stone you can literally see panthers these stones tell a story last time i was here um that’s enormous you can see the detail in these stones serpents and it looks like little like almost like monks on top of those serpents those are mines
Again take me back to a place where i felt at home take me back to a day when we weren’t alone take me back to an age when the world felt small way back before we blew it all take me back to a place where i felt at home take me back to a day when we weren’t alone take me back to an age when the world felt small way back before we blew it all too many things
Going on i can’t keep track of them all from people dropping a bomb to people putting up walls i feel like life is on hall perceptions stuck and evolved i know that time can kneel all but how much time till we fall it’s awfully chilly outside when there’s no shelter to hide when everything is alive you’ll find that out in some time but when the things on your mind
Are all considered a crime communication aside we’ll all just fight till we die is this an argument or just the start of that either way i don’t wanna be a part of it can i just get some space i don’t have the heart for this i can’t be picking up the pieces fixing scars from this is this an argument or just the start of it i wanna drive away so i can be so far from
It i wanna find a place where no one breaks their promises or maybe drive myself in something that is bottomless take me back to a place where i felt that home take me back to a day when we weren’t alone take me back to an age when the world felt small way back before we blew it all take me back to a place where i felt at home take me back to a day when we weren’t
Alone take me back to an age when the world felt small way back let’s go through it all i know that things seem bad but they could be much worse there’s always someone else who has a greater curse a greater thirst of hunger pain and mercy just find whatever you got and try to be thankful first i wanna feel again i need a couple friends i never really understood your
Status story yes but i can feel this dance don’t know the consequence the volatility of life my only confidence is this an argument or just the start of it either way i don’t wanna be a part of it can i just get some space i don’t have the heart for this i can’t be picking up the pieces fixing scars from this is this an argument or just the start of it i wanna drive
Away so i can be so far from it i wanna find a place where no one breaks their promises or maybe drive myself in something that is bottomless take me back to a place where i felt at home take me back to a day when we weren’t alone take me back to an age when the world felt small way back before we blew it all take me back to a place where i felt at home take me
Back to a day when we weren’t alone take me back to an age when the world felt small way back before we blew it all
