Pratica di Shadowing: I Explored 2000 Year Old Ancient Temple | Mrbeast english | Mrbeast New video | Mrbeast Challenge | - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

We just got dropped off on this 2,000 year old ancient temple!

Wow, we're so high up!

Dude, we're surrounded by jungle!

See you later!

Let's go see what we can find!

In this video, we're going to be exploring dozens of ancient temples, all of which hide ancient Mayan secrets from the world deep underground.

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

Nobody gets to go where we're going, including exploring one of the seven wonders of the world.

But we only have 100 hours to make discoveries discoveries.

Dude I'm discovering these stairs are huge.

Yeah, I want to find an escalator.

Let's go discover the secrets of the Mayan This is the door to the inside of this massive Mayan temple.

Oh, that's a deep tunnel Dibs are going first.

That's fine with me.

There's booby trap.

This temple is over 2,000 years old.

This is insane.

We're inside an ancient temple right now.

Where are we going?

Oh my gosh Oh wow.

The first thing you see in this temple is this giant statue, which is supposedly the corn god inside of a jaguar's mouth.

This is so beautiful.

My gosh.

I'm gonna tell you what I think this means and you tell me what it means, okay?

This is a hand.

This is a parade.

That's a toilet.

Wrong.

Okay.

That is not his toilet.

That is his earring.

Yeah, Jimmy.

Oh.

So here's the thing, this place is actually a pyramid built on top of a pyramid.

So the deeper we go in, the older things get.

Be careful, boys.

So sketchy, Jimmy.

Can't believe the government's letting us do this.

It really is crazy.

Not even archaeologists are allowed to go back here.

How deep underground are we?

And after navigating this ginormous ancient temple, we finally made it to the end.

Now that we're at the end, you said you had a surprise.

Yes, this has been found in the last few decades.

Oh, whoa, what?

It is a funerary mask.

This is the face of one of the kings of the snake kingdom.

The Mayans used masks like this one to shield those that have passed away from dangers on their journey to the underworld.

Can I hold it?

Yes.

This was made over a thousand years ago.

Yes.

Which means my great-great-great-great-great-great-grandparents weren't even alive.

Why is this not in a museum?

Why is a YouTuber holding this?

Get this away from me.

Take it, take it.

Don't tell anybody.

Okay.

I totally won't show 200 million people.

That's it for this temple, but we are in the middle of a giant city with multiple other ancient temples.

And later in this video, even visiting the seventh wonder of the world.

Let's find some treasure.

This jungle is full of monkeys, snakes, and people have even died to jaguars here.

Well, we survived Snake Island.

Wait, how weird.

Is that a monkey?

Sir.

Sir!

Well guys, this is where we're gonna be camping tonight.

Oh look at these hammocks!

We still have over a dozen temples to explore.

I need you guys to get some good sleep because this video is just getting started.

Good morning boys!

Morning!

First things first, we need to explore the rest of this massive abandoned city.

And looking at it now, it's hard to imagine what it might have looked like.

And so I'll just show you.

Over a hundred thousand people used to live in this city.

That's what that used to look like.

This is what they think these roads look like.

There were temples everywhere.

It was flourishing.

But on the inside, you'd witness magnificent artwork like this.

Oh my god.

Big area.

Whoa.

This is incredible.

One of my favorite part of these videos is when we take old paintings and bring them to life.

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

Bro, this is so cool.

This is a rare glimpse into what the life of a Maya looked like 2,500 years ago.

This is amazing.

Nolan really thought that was a llama.

Can we talk about this?

Nolan, you thought that was a llama?

Cause look, I thought that was the eye, that was the mouth, and I thought that was the leg.

100

Yeah, I thought you... were smart.

101

And after I picked on Nolan, Nolan returned the favor to Tariq with the spider.

102

Tariq, don't move!

103

Stop!

104

Tariq!

105

Tariq's gonna quit!

106

My friends have a strange way of having fun, but the Mayan way was arguably stranger.

107

We're standing where a ball court used to exist over 2,000 years ago.

108

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

109

As far as we know.

110

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

111

Yes.

112

The Mayans are crazy, man.

113

Whoa.

114

This is huge.

115

Yeah. So beautiful.

116

Why don't we build temples like this today?

117

Around 2,000 years ago, this is where the king and his queen lived.

118

But 2,500 years ago, this is what it looked like.

119

Massive crowds of people would gather here and even wait for hours just for a chance to see the king.

120

And here it is today.

121

Let's go check it out.

122

Okay.

123

2,000 years ago, the king would probably stand here and watch sports from his palace.

124

Kind of cool.

125

Oh my gosh.

126

It's kind of like a labyrinth.

127

Yes, because if you want to protect your king...

128

You make it confusing.

129

Ernesto, be honest with you.

130

Has anyone ever pressed this Glock in to see if it reveals hidden treasure?

131

Mmm, I will not do it.

132

Mmm.

133

How about this one?

134

Mmm.

135

How about this one?

136

You're telling me the king didn't build a hidden treasure room 2,600 years ago?

137

Maybe yes, but it's hidden.

138

With the hopes of finding the king's treasure, we ventured to a cave deep in the jungle where the treasure may lie.

139

Hey, Jimmy did not say anything about bats, bro.

140

Oh my, good Joe, there's so many bats!

141

They just flew right behind our heads.

142

The Mayas, they used to think that this is the mouth of the monster of the earth.

143

Look above us right now.

144

We're surrounded by bats.

145

Thousands of bats swerving us.

146

It's a bat tornado.

147

If there is a Mayan treasure there, it's under tons of...

148

Bat poop.

149

I feel like I've already found my treasure.

150

This is beautiful.

151

We're gonna leave.

152

There's a lot of bats.

153

I would prefer if he goes faster.

154

Oh, I got food on!

155

Oh!

156

Oh my god!

157

For me, this is a real treasure.

158

Oh!

159

He hit my hand!

160

You gotta get out of here.

161

There's absolutely no treasure here.

162

But there's still one more temple that might have treasure.

163

Because it's already dark out, boys light your torches and let's go on an adventure.

164

Our torches go out before we get to an ancient temple.

165

I'm gonna be very sad.

166

Tem-ple!

167

Tem-ple!

168

Tem-ple!

169

This is so much cooler with just torches.

170

Let's see what this bad boy looks like.

171

I feel like an ancient adventure.

172

But as it turns out, alright, it's a dead end.

173

This didn't go well either.

174

Everything's a dead end.

175

Oh my god!

176

What was that?

177

There's like a monkey up there.

178

Is that a monkey or a jaguar?

179

Why is this video becoming scary all of a sudden?

180

Make sure you sleep well tonight because I have a big surprise for you in the morning.

181

Let me guess.

182

You guys thought the dozens of ancient temples in this city was the entire video.

183

Yeah.

184

Yeah, I think so.

185

Send the helicopter back.

186

Because to explore even further, we were gonna need a lift.

187

I'm climbing these stairs like a dog.

188

We're almost there.

189

There's our ride.

190

We gotta go.

191

Let's go explore some more temples!

192

And where we're going has some of the craziest ancient remains ever built by mankind.

193

And to kick off this location, we're gonna visit this bad boy, which the Mayans used to call the gateway to the underworld.

194

Back in the day, there used to be giant fangs here.

195

What happened to them?

196

They fell off.

197

Seems logical.

198

Let's go explore!

199

Whoa!

200

This is awesome!

201

There's some very special features that I love.

202

Like that structure in the building.

203

Wow.

204

I'm gonna guess this building was a temple.

205

Was it for sacrifices?

206

Yes, you guessed it.

207

Yes!

208

I got something right!

209

What a nerd.

210

Throw lost his hat.

211

What our guide really wanted to show us was a cave which Mayans believed humans emerged from.

212

The Maya believed that humanity came from a cave.

213

Deep inside of there is what they call the Tree of Life.

214

And they believe that all of us spawned from this very majestic, beautiful tree deep in this cave.

215

It's so sacred that we're gonna do a ceremony to ask for permission to the spirits of the cave.

216

If I was a betting man, I'd say the spirits are gonna reject Nolan.

217

Oh, thank you.

218

As we entered the cave...

219

Whoa!

220

Okay.

221

This definitely looks sacred.

222

We were met with the ritual our guide spoke of.

223

What is he doing now?

224

He's purifying the entrance of the cave.

225

And it's here where we would seek the approval of the gods.

226

Naturally, I wasn't worried at all.

227

But were the gods really about to let Nolan enter this sacred place?

228

I hope they accept me.

229

I think it's good.

230

Oh!

231

What's he doing?

232

48 hours later.

233

Uh, is he good?

234

Come on!

235

The spirits didn't reject him!

236

Thank goodness.

237

So, with the gods officially on our side, we started our journey for the tree of life.

238

But the deeper into the cave we went, the hotter it got.

239

Is it just me or is it only getting hotter in this cave?

240

It's getting hotter and the air is going to be more difficult to breathe.

241

More difficult to breathe, yeah.

242

It's so hot right here.

243

The deeper you go in the cave, the thinner the air gets.

244

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

245

It's really hot here.

246

This cave just keeps on going, but at least there's no bats.

247

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

248

They literally tried sealing this off.

249

Imagine being a Maya 2,000 years ago, see this beautiful cave, and all of a sudden, see this beautiful room.

250

Whoa.

251

And the amazing tree.

252

Oh.

253

Am I the only one that thought the tree of life was an actual tree?

254

Yes, this is it.

255

This is the sacred seba that holds the sky.

256

Are these pots around it the same pots the Mayans created?

257

Yes, sir.

258

So the tall ones, they put incense, and they burn it to get the attention of the gods.

259

This is very cool.

260

If you were a Mayan thousands of years ago and actually believed that this is where humans came from, I understand why they thought this was so sacred.

261

Of course, of course.

262

But this cave is about to get really dangerous, because where we're going next, we will literally need an oxygen tank to breathe.

263

Why do I keep doing things in videos that could kill me?

264

So after a few deep breaths to top off on oxygen...

265

How deep are we going?

266

About two football fields.

267

Yo, I'm gonna stay up here.

268

You're always backing out on me.

269

He said there was no oxygen.

270

I don't want to hear it.

271

And Nolan may have been onto something.

272

Because at the literal first thing our guide wanted to show us...

273

Oh, yes.

274

I'm dizzy, and...

275

Oh, you're good?

276

No, I'm good, I'm good.

277

Whether you like it or not, you're gonna get some oxygen.

278

Breathe.

279

Anyways, what were you saying?

280

Well, there's some ceramic pot shards.

281

Wow.

282

This is so cool.

283

Can I take one home?

284

Well, I do want to go to jail.

285

I would go to jail?

286

Yeah, sure.

287

All right, I won't take one home.

288

I can't believe they actually believe me.

289

They're so cold.

290

They're so cold.

291

I found a boy that's scary.

292

Look at all the bats in this tunnel.

293

Let's continue.

294

Wait, I actually, unironically, I don't know.

295

Do bats bite humans?

296

I found a hiding spot.

297

Oh, there's a bat.

298

Can you get you a hit of this oxygen?

299

So we're only getting deeper.

300

Here, get you some.

301

Air is getting thicker.

302

But as we got closer to the end, we were confronted by the final boss of this secret tunnel.

303

See those, uh, the stalactites?

304

Oh, weeps.

305

Jimmy, behind you is the biggest spider in the world.

306

Oh my god!

307

What did the Mayans give the insects down here?

308

Why do you think the world's largest spider is at the

309

end of a secret tunnel in the most sacred place of the Mayans?

310

It's protecting something.

311

What do you think?

312

I think so.

313

So instead of fighting the final boss, we let the secret tunnel keep its secrets.

314

Oh my gosh!

315

That was terrifying.

316

I almost threw the oxygen tank right out your face.

317

And after escaping with our lives, we were exhausted.

318

So we headed to our new camp to turn in.

319

Because not only were we gonna need our energy for the seventh wonder of the world, but for day four, I wanted to know what the Mayans did for fun.

320

Starting with the first ever team-based game to use a ball.

321

Over 3,000 years ago, the Mayans invented the game of Pits, where you score by shooting a ball through a small hoop, kinda like basketball.

322

Only you can't use your hands or your feet.

323

But remember what we said all the way back in day two.

324

The losing captain's head would get cut off.

325

The head?

326

This is hard.

327

I'd say we're gonna get the hang of it.

328

And although we started to get a handle on the ball, it's safe to say we were still far from scoring.

329

So I even brought in our camera guys to help out.

330

But even then, failure after failure only brought us countless more failures.

331

We might not ever score.

332

But in ancient times, giving up meant literally losing your head.

333

Nolan, you better stand up bro.

334

And so failure after failure continued until...

335

And after a long day of this brutal sport, the surviving players might have celebrated by heading down a sinkhole for a relaxing dip in the natural pools.

336

And while I'm not cutting any heads off, Nolan did lose at Piz.

337

What the fuck?

338

Ah!

339

Is the water cold?

340

No, it's kind of refreshing!

341

Oh, is it?

342

Yeah!

343

One more!

344

Woo!

345

This water feels amazing!

346

It doesn't look like you think it feels like it really.

347

Oh, it's so cold!

348

And although I swim in the cenote is refreshing, the craziest Mayan temple, a literal seventh wonder of the world is still to come.

349

But first, a classic Mayan dinner!

350

So everything you're seeing here is what the Mayans used to eat over a thousand years ago.

351

As you've heard throughout this video, they worship the corn god.

352

And if you don't know, corn is a main ingredient in tortillas.

353

Whoever's editing this, did the Mayans invent tacos, yes or no?

354

To our final night, cheers.

355

Enjoy the Mayan tacos.

356

And to wrap up the night, we have a special Mayan dessert, the brand new Feastables Peanut Butter Cuffs.

357

Wait, brand new, but it's a Mayan dessert?

358

Don't ask questions, it's dessert.

359

Here you go.

360

The king of marketing over here.

361

Oh, look at how much peanut butter is in there.

362

Isn't it sad

363

that there are humans on this earth whose taste buds have not been blessed with the brand new Feastables Peanut Butter Cups?

364

So if you want an ethically sourced, amazing tasting snack, make sure you reach for Feastables.

365

It's good.

366

The only Mayan approved snack on the planet.

367

Before I go to sleep, I want to let you guys know that I'm giving away $500,000 to 10 random people that subscribe to the channel.

368

No joke, my birthday is coming up and to celebrate 10 random people that subscribe to the channel will win $50,000 each.

369

See you guys at the seventh wonder of the world.

370

And with the last remaining hours of our trip here, it's the moment you've all been waiting for.

371

The seventh wonder of the world, the temple of Kukul Khan.

372

Oh, this is so cool.

373

I can't believe we're actually here.

374

Kukul Khan is one of the seven wonders of the world, partially for its grand size, but weirdly enough, also for the way it sounds.

375

The Mayans somehow constructed this in a way where if you clap in front of it, you hear what sounds like a laser coming back at you.

376

Alright, anyways, what we actually came here for.

377

At the top of this pyramid is a temple so sacred to the locals that no one is allowed up there.

378

Which begs the question of what Mayan secrets lay in that ancient room.

379

Out of respect for the culture and all the people who hold this very sacred, we are not going to touch the temple.

380

Instead, we're going to fly this drone up to see what's in that secret room.

381

You cool with this?

382

Yeah, just cool.

383

Godspeed!

384

Speed!

385

Oh my gosh, this looks so majestic.

386

I'm dying to know.

387

Alright, let's see what's in this room.

388

Wait.

389

Arthur, the room's empty.

390

Well, 500 years ago, the Spanish came here and they take a lot of the stuff inside.

391

But before everything was sadly stolen, this is what historians believe the seventh wonder of the world looked like.

392

I'm not gonna lie, it's actually very beautiful.

393

And while we didn't find any gold, I'm grateful that I can even visit these ancient monuments and share with you guys.

394

Thank you so much.

395

Guys, I love you Mexico.

396

It's been great.

397

See you later.

398

I'm gonna do it.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
