Josh Gates Finds Human Remains Beneath El Mirador! | Expedition Unkown

[@firewaterbydesign]

I often wonder if Josh ever realizes how extremely blessed he is to have the BEST job in the entire world!!??!!

[@ryufight7987]

Exactly

I watch these shows because of Josh... I love his humor and being able to see places I'll never get to see or go to 🥰

[@mwj5368]

Hi! I think if you put your mind to it you can do anything. Save some money, probably not much as it is very cheap to travel in Mexico and Central America. I was in Guatemala in 1993. I had $100 US when I crossed into Mexico from Texas. I traveled by bus to the Mexico/Guatemala border and did volunteer work in some Guatemalan refugee camps on the Mexican side, then went into Guatemala for 2 weeks. When I crossed back into Mexico I had $38 US dollars to get back to Minnesota on. I took a second class train all through Mexico. Then I hitchhiked from El Paso, TX back to Minnesota and still had $10 when I arrived in Minneapolis. That was 27 yrs ago ha! Really though I think you can go low budget and do a lot if you put your heart to it. Just my amateur view! Hasta Luego!

[@LoneWolf-wq1nq]

I watch these shows because somehow it gives me good luck and later I developed interest in it.

[@sharonjones1880]

I love this show ,watch it faithfully. They don’t teach most this stuff in schools anymore.I love it when he gets so excited when something is found.I don’t see where he gets credit for finding stuff unless he dug it up himself.I love hearing about the history and learning about new information they discovered. I enjoy the traveling places I will never see or hear about otherwise .His shows are about practically everything and you learn about old and newly discovered information.So kudos to Josh.

[@Theavantamistique]

Unfortunately Richard Hansen is a terrible Mormon businessman who is getting American tax payers and lobbying the Guatemalan government for a privatized tourist train. He is turning El Mirador to a tourist Disneyland . Here’s the interview he did with Vice. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5q9i4Seo6ypm6c&pp=ygUjQW5jaWVudCBndWF0ZW1hbGEgcnVpbnMgbW9ybW9uIHZpY2U%3D.

[@MeAbroad2004]

Some people get paid to do archaeology. Believe me, it is not as exciting as you would think and at the coal-face, can be seriously back breaking work: I have damaged my second and third vertebrate due to years of using picks and mattocks.

[@bunburychic9755]

@@MeAbroad2004 I wanted to major in archeology but then thought -where would i find a job? I majored in business instead. I've gone to both Tikal and Egypt and still think that was my calling :/

[@missysbees]

I guess so someone has to do it, nice job, would like it much more if it wasn't scripted!

[@conwaymorgan8474]

Josh didn’t find anything, the archeologist found it. The senior archeologist did all the pre work.

[@vmwindustries]

Yes, but public knowledge is key to humanity understanding the truth of the world. Religious beliefs are just ancient ideas of how things work, in a time without scientific knowledge. We must learn from, and respect our past! Then we can fully understand who we are and where we come from.

[@theone-swta]

I agree, Josh found absolutely nothing..

Josh has become my favourite archaeologist, totally unbiased and asks questions that probe into the crux of the problem 👍👍

[@MrGygygygy]

What is that music in the background ?! Dude....calm down!

[@Blvkwvlf]

American shows lol. I once saw a show on tv about insects and they played similar music while a caterpillar ate a leaf. Followed by a rotating 3d mesh scan of the caterpillar and then a lenseflare and electrical explosion. Then back to the caterpillar eating.

[@PandoraBVV]

AGREED!! 😳😣Acccck, my neural highways & sheaths are screaming for mercy! 😖😒It is nervewracking, not pleasantly heightening & enhancing my anticipation, which would have made the clip a pleasurable viewing experience, which I was expecting it to be because it is from "Discovery *UK* " . Americans tend to overdo ALL FX, on Audio they use the wrong sounds at ridiculous tempos & volumes. I won't even go into the atrocious visual FX and the absurd Camera gymnastics they slather on when they utilize them in vids, especially on American TV Reality Shows! (which I abhor with every fiber of my entire being) Thanx 👍 😀 for commenting about the Sound, I hate feeling like the only one who dislikes and objects to the atrocity. ✌Peace upon y'all!

[@darlenezurek6606]

I love Josh! We watch every episode! This was one of my favorite!

[@tjbay13]

Josh has caught quite a bit of paranormal evidence through the years with the Destination Truth team. Expedition Unknown is more about history's mysteries. The Search for the Yeti however did turn up a great track cast. That was a fantastic find. Other than that... you can't solve stuff like the legend of King Arthur lol. It's more like edutainment where as DT was legit paranormal/cryptid field investigations in some really epic locations. Keep in mind, Josh is an archaeologist so I'm sure he loves filming this show. He gets to see and experience things most folks will never see. He is also very likeable and funny so it makes for good tv. Im sure he will also be teaming up with TAPS again for their new show on Travel Channel.

[@MissMausoleum]

He teamed up with the Ghost Hunters team?! 😳 I love these shows 😭 I need cable 🥺

I've been rmto El Mirador. Our guide told us that there are so many discoveries found, but they can't let everyone know yet. That place is just amazing. It's a long hike, but worth it!

this is doing wonders for my Maya report. thank you josh gates! :D

[@asianthor]

After this special, they dug down a cavity and snaked a camera and still are fing older architecture beneath this complex. At Nabke, an even older site near El Mirador, they have found one of the earliest Maya sites possibly 1,200 BC, this is real early Maya timeline. At the El Pesquero ruins in the upper region of the Peten in Guatemala, they have found a pyramid with the huge carved stone head of the Principal Bird Deity possibly 700 BC. It's unbelievable how much they are finding in the last years. Guatemala is truly the birthplace of the Maya civilization.

This is NOT fake at alI. I'm Guatemalan and have visited many ancient sites such as Kaminal Juyu, Takalik Abaj, Zaculeu, Quirugua, Tikal etc. Spent some time watching the expert workers uncovering new areas and Peten building art was often covered by stucco and lime stone and looks exactly white washed and pristine like this after they take the sand and soil off with brushes. Mayans were so wealthy back then that even their sewer ditches had fine art sculptures on them. Frescos and wall relieves are often of such refined workmanship that they appear too clean and perfect for thousands of years old buildings. Calidá muchá! Utz pin, maltiox! 🙏 ✌ 💙 🇬🇹

I enjoy Josh's show, but, it's a show, meaning he's retracing the footsteps of researchers before him, and producing a seasons worth of programs that need to be delivered on time, and need to show him "searching," which they do, but don't confuse what he's doing as real research... each episode is done very quickly and within budget, so, like all "tv shows," things are planned, and "setup" before filming even begins... antiquities are purchased, or borrowed and then planting for him to find etc. I enjoy the show because it still takes you to these areas and because Josh does a great job and shows genuine excitement etc.
