I salute the cameraman. Imagine mountain climbing and taking footage of your path. This is impressive. I can't get enough of Albert Lin after watching The Lost City in Micronesia.

I can't wrap around my head how ancient civilizations were able to make such intricate designs, how they knew of the process and the necessary materials and tools to do it. Also, the architecture and engineering to build their place. Really mind boggling!

I love watching his documentaries. Albert Lin's voice is unpretentious and soothing to listen to which makes watching the videos a comfortable experience.

It was such a great documentary and all of their determination towards finding a lost civ is really commendable

Great presentation, great documentary! I always can’t help feeling for the cameramen, who have to lug their equipment up an down mountain sides. They do a great job.

I feel bad for the camera people hoofing their gear through the jungle. When the military peeps are struggling with the climb too, you know it's rough

We need a Part 2 of this -- to narrate what happens afterwards when they dug up the newly-found terrace ;)!

Of all Albert’s documentary, this one’s excites me most! Ancient civilisation never fails to amaze me no matter where it from.

Huge appreciation for A.Lin, Natgeo and all of the team, it's such a HUGE discovery for sure. I hope after watching this i can find some journal articles about it

Wow! I love watching stories about the ancient world. A. Lin is truly an amazing explorer. He gave us an idea of what the oldest civilization looks like thousands to million years ago.

Props to the cameraman.. they are the one who struggle the most climbing!!

I believe mankind can overcome our hate, mistakes and realize how wonderful and blessed to have such a planet with many gifts.

What an inspirational person he is! Lin seems energetic and keen throughout the episode. His skills and passion to discover is marvelous.

Please come to Indonesia and dig our Gunung Padang site. I am tired with the pro-contra about old and lost civilization of this site, I just want truth and I think Albert can give a glimpse of light that can lead us there where our government can't. Thankyou.

During the last few minutes, I was literally holding my breath! The Lost Cities with Albert Lin series is amazing. They're not only educational but also incredibly fun and thrilling!

44mins. Is not enough. I could watch this episode forever. ☺☺

The way they made their alloy is genius. I had an electronics teacher in high school who had us stripping apart old computers. Some of the basic components, like the power supply’s, could be reused. But the circuits were antiquated and useless, however, most had gold plating. We would use acid to strip away the gold plating, and then reconstitute it into a solid. I took an electronics class from him every year, and by my senior year, we had made three gold bars that weighed 30 pounds each. He called them his retirement plan. The other components that we salvaged, we would sell, and use the money to get more scrap to recycle, to fund our VICA club, and to buy equipment for the electronics lab. My senior year, we designed a mini amplifier for electric guitars. We were able to buy the equipment and supplies to start manufacturing the amps. The amps used a lot of gold plated components, to distortion extremely low. Most of which we salvaged from the computers and then gold plated ourselves. Using the gold to make the amplifiers cut into our teachers gold bar production, but selling the amplifiers more than made up for it. We sold the amps for $90 bucks a piece, which was still a lot of money in 1995. We figured the cost for each amp was just under $20 dollars. However, that’s with free labor and using the school’s electricity and building. We ended up making and selling more than 150 amps, the profits were over $10K, all of which went to the VICA club. Needless to say, we had an awesome end of the year party. And - the demand for the mini guitar amps was enough that our teacher found a business partner and started producing them commercially. They then sold their business to a bigger manufacturer in California. Anyway, pretty ingenious way of making the gold rise to the surface through heat and acid.

that is saddest part the greed that effects indigenous people in such a devastating way.

Unlike other shows, I love that we actually get to see new discoveries being made! History literally being uncovered as we watch. More please!

Love to see docs of my country 🥹 Colombia is soooooo beautiful, so intricate and full of lore and legend. Happy you got to see this side of us 😁

Imagine finding a lost city which ended up opening up an even wider understanding of a previous notion?! I would say this was a successful and satisfying dig, sir.

I hiked to La Ciudad Perdida when I visited Colombia in 2017. Very sweaty and humid business in the jungle, but the reward of ending up at those magnificent ruins was worth it.

It’s so much fun to watch the archaeologists’ eyes light up with wonder as you bring the technology to remote locations all over the world.

Bravo Albert Lin... You're suh a inspiration 💗

Albert is a great explorer. This was a good documentary.

Thank you! I have been waiting for someone to document all the new things we are finding with Lidar and advanced technology we now have. Albert Lin is an incredible guide and watching him cut through the mountain jungle in Columbia, and climb the basalt outcrop in Micronesia…I can say he’s earned my respect! More please!

I love these series! It’s such a nice reality check that our society nowadays is not the pinnacle of the human species!

Bravo to these men enduring all the hardships to uncover part of a civilization; thank you, guys.

Thank you for making this viewing possible on UKposts.

Absolutely fantastic, amazing, cinematic, crazy, adventurous, colourful, astounding, scary and educational.... an epic production & a huge shout out to the film crew ... cheers to you 🤟🎶

Marvelous documentation. Thank you for all the team members, including the military unit!

Amazing films with Albert Lin!!!

this guy and his crew does it right and because of that they actually find stuff. for once, someone actually finds stuff and even knew stuff. big salute and subscribe from me! puts a tear in my eye at the genuineness of it all.

This is just amazing. They've just discovered a new site thru this documentary. Goosebump.

Great films , I am loving all this documentary..🙏❤️👍 Thank you Albert Lim and Teams🙏

That's amazing to watch this series of full episode lately

In 1994-95 I was able to join an archeology team in the Bolivian Yungas and travel part of the Takesi trail in search of artifacts. I was 34 back then and it was really tough at nearly 18-19 thousand feet above sea level. I look forward to seeing more "lost" cities being found through this new technology.

Lost Cities has become my new favorite thing to watch

❤❤❤❤❤Albert is amazing his discoveries are incredible! I love the TECHNOLOGY !!!!! #1

Loving this doc. More like this, please. Great host!

"There's a better way to do this!" to the archaeologist who's been working on the sites diligently for 40 years. That didn't sound arrogant.

This was an awesome insight. Great job by albert.

I am a geospatial engineering student and this is super incredible . I would love to meet Albert Lin fr

Such a great episode! Thanks for making it. Deep gratitude..........

Fabuloso tu tarbajo Albert, me encanta tu sensibilidad por nuestros ancestros, sea donde sea.. muchas gracias

Exploration is so Amazing, Fantastic. Its like am on the path of Discovery

great .it s amazing watching .i always inspired by those cannel and people who is doing such adventure

great respect for Mr. Lin and the explorers with them.. Truly breathtaking.

Love this series!!

Scratch the surface anywhere in the jungles of South America and such remnants can be found. What amazes me most is that explorers and "alternative archeologists" have been ridiculed as conspiracy theorists for decades for claiming to have seen such things, and suddenly Nat. Geo is congratulating itself in a dramatized show with a lot of well-scripted storyline. The much-promoted technology is great, but it does confirm what the explorers of old were ridiculed for claiming. A bit of credit and a nod to the past explorers who didn't have the benefit of satellites, choppers and a TV crew would be good. Albert Lin has it easy, just read what Percy Fawcett went through!

Albert Lin and Team found a new lost City .... Amazing

I'm loving all this

His prosthetic cup is going to be full of sweat. Hats off to him!

Albert is an amazing adventurer. This documentary was excellent.

Sir Albert Lin I'm so addicted with your adventures and documentary ❤ even if I'm on duty I'm still watchingbyoir vids and before I sleep lol😅

A. Lin is a wonderful person. Doing what i always dreamed of . Did get to a number of great archeological locations but not like Mr. Lin has accomplished! Congratulations and stay safe!

I didn't even noticed it's 44minutes already. Only proves how much I enjoyed the video. thanks for sharing.

How old is this documentary? When Albert Lin first mentions LIDAR as a way of finding more structures, the archeologist sounds like it is new to him, and latter, Lin explains LIDAR as if it is a very new invention. But other shows from the first decade of this century were using it.

This is fabulous i want more

Amei a nova opção de tradução de áudio

i'm sure a full excavation will take many years but maybe some sort of update would be really nice. What an exciting find. The archeologist must have been thrilled.

amazing technology. amazing brave people

Props to everyone who climbed.. especially the cameraman.... I could NEVER.

The camera crew is amazing!

albert's whole story is insane. such a cool guy

i love watching your documentary

I love this show! So amazing!

Thanks for making me want to watch National Geographic again.

I truly enjoyed this. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Probably one of the most unique was the Columbian Military being so cooperative. I've seen this before though, thiere Islands to the north have some naval military and they are great guys. What an amazing story . Thanks. Michael Shreeve SR.

the video more interesting and exciting than a hollywood movie 🤩

This is a great video, congrats! Next time you plan to visit Colombia, feel free to reach out. I will be more than happy to share my knowledge. cheers from Bogota frank

Great video! I never knew that cuidad perdida was larger than the uncovered terraces! Gotta go there one day.

David Attenborough and Albert Lin for NatGeo is my go to.

a doc about ancient civs were people actually discover stuff, It's incredible

So great!

Thank you Natgeo.. ❤❤

I was young when I got to go the movies to see the cartoon I loved it !!! So to see this now that I'm older is crazy, lol so u telling me its real 👀 & only I it look actually like the movie cartoon. 😍 but this I Still amazing to see to.

Very cool documentary

We're dashing to The Golden with this one 🔥🔥🔥

Definitely need a part two!

My heart pumps so fast ❤ I enjoy so much ❤

Love Albert Lin & National Geographic Full episodes! When the archaeologist said, “There’s a Terrace!” I thought he said “Terrorist!” & I gasped & jumped because at the same time it looked like Albert ducked! I mean it’s the jungles of Colombia! I thought that’s why the military were with them 🤷‍♀️ I had heard that there are parts of the Colombia jungle that even the military won’t go because of the Cartels

Dude dipped his hand in a stream and found gold. That tiny speck means theres more. Much more

Great Documentary…👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️

Congrats on the discovery

An awesome looking,pressure wave slinging...GONZO😮

I have no words

Albert, there is a El Dorado in northern CA where Gold Rush was found in Coloma. Dare you to explore it.

I’d like to see more underwater archaeology on the continental shelf.

My dad worked on the development of LIDAR for NASA. When he explained what it would be capable of I could only say " wow! ".

THIS DESERVES MORE VIEWS

El Dorado is a great example of all conspiracy's have some basis in truth. Knowing that they had an alloy that LOOKED gold, and had some gold in it, without fully being gold makes sense that people being ignorant of that, just assumes there's a city full of gold.

Beautiful video I like 😊😊😊

In ancient time gold mean as a prosperity as a metaphor. But today we think gold means actually gold metal . So it could be that El Dorado was a prosperous at that time and not literally had city built from gold .

Presenter is awesome.

Its amazing!

Amazing!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ superb!
