Hearted Youtube comments on Flash Point History (@FlashPointHx) channel.

  1. I guess I'm here today because my ancestors were antisocial. I'm glad to carry on the tradition.

  2. This is excellent. It is a shame that the History channel was overtaken with reality shows when it used to have good documentaries and well written educational programs. This reminds me of those days.

  4. Funny fact: King John II rejected the Columbus proposal because his carthographes alerted him a gross error in Columbus estimation of the size of the Earth. And they were right. Spain discovered Americas because, different from Portugal, they had no idea what they were doing.

  6. "Men will literally watch an almost 8 hour long video about the history of the byzantine empire instead of going to therapy"

  7. God bless Spain and Portugal for defending their land, and reconquering the Iberian peninsula 🇪🇸🇵🇹

  10. Excellent documentary. Years ago, when the History Channel was still worth of its name, they presented a documentary on the Plague and mentioned that a certain genetic mutation that had been found in the DNA of the remains of survivors who had had the disease. This whole thing makes me realize that we, ourselves, are the descendants of survivors. It's something to be proud of and awed by at the same time.

  11. Wanted to get this out there - for all the truly hardcore Attila junkies. Over 3 and a half hours of the history of Attila the Hun. The video I kept in SD or else this would have been 4 -6 hours to upload, and I figured it was an audio only item. Enjoy!

  12. I'm Moroccan and I always have immense respect to my Portugaise friends , we had wars in the past and now we are friends , how cool is that !

  13. I'm speechless I specialised in researching this period of Spanish history at university and must say I am genuinely impressed with your rendering of it

  14. “Cats saved a good chunk of humanity...” in Poland. Music to the ears of cat lovers everywhere!

  15. Oh this is so absolutely convenient. Pressing play now!

  16. Ok a more serious note. It makes me mad to watch this and then see online everyone complaining about 2021 and the world we live in. We complain as if we are not living in the time of hygiene and science…we should be more grateful

  17. I am an history investigator from Portugal, in FCSH, Lisbon. I enjoy your videos, you glaze over many details (simply because you don't have access to secure documents in Torre do Tombo and these are not on the internet) so some context gets lost in the details. Even so to be honest is one of the most complete series on youtube in english about the portuguese empire. Keep up the research. Cheers from Portugal

  18. Don't kill cats.

  19. This is absolutely incredible. The amount of detail on all aspects of the plague is so great. I was sure this was made by a team, but judging from the comments, this was made by a single person? That is so impressive. I've always been fascinated by the Black Death and this was a dream documentary on it.

  20. Oh my God, YES! I cannot believe that we are finally getting animated version of podcast of History of Byzantium...... cough Eastern Rome cough .....and that it is going to be done in such magnificent animation style. As someone who just recently stumbled on your YouTube channel, I must admit that I'm really impressed with your work. Keep the good work! 😄

  21. Coptic Egyptian here, I saw the title.. I liked

  22. This is it! The Life of Emperor Justinian in a 7 and a half hour video! Only the truly ultra hard core Roman History enthusiasts need apply =). Enjoy folks! Also big announcement - I've been approached by a company to create history tours and give lectures. You could join me in traveling to the locations where history occurred. Let me know if this would interest you. The full Reconquista Video on Isabella will also be out very soon.

  25. Oh boy, a Black Death documentary I haven't seen yet.
    347
  26. Portugal had this huge and successful empire that very few people know about we need more videos like this.

  27. Thanks for your videos about Portugal. Being a portuguese I get sad when I remember that we had such an interesting history and yet you find nothing about it on the internet and in media in general, but here you are doing 2 hours+ worth of amazing content about Portugal. Thank you man, you have teached me more than school.

  28. I have always been fascinated by the Portuguese navigators. They felt to me like madmen, obssessed with adventure, ambitious, fearless.

  29. Criminally under subbed. I can't imagine how long it takes to produce each episode.
    293
  30. Lately when I look for something to watch, I reject 95% of the shows or movies that I even sample. But I find a well done documentary is easier and more enjoyable watching. Does that mean I'm old, or a nerd, or both? 😂
    292
  31. I rate this one of the best documentaries on YouTube. Just how a documentary should be produced information, information and more information. No inane screaming and wailing that assaults the ears which seems to be how they're produced now. Many, many thanks.

  32. What is the game of Thrones compared with la Reconquista 🇵🇹❤️🇪🇸

  33. This is great. Spainsh history is so underated . Works like this puts it where it belongs. Thank you guy/s
    275
  34. Impressive how a small country had an empire that endured for centuries… but no one know about it.
    272
  35. Vikings: *raids Seville * Abd al rahman 2 : "I'm bout to finish these pagans' whole career".
    259
  36. Tremendous respect to the Portuguese who in a time where European technology could not even compute longitude, managed to explore great parts of the world.
    256
  37. This is excellent. I love the use of primary sources. I feel that history is almost always best viewed through the eyes of the people that actually experienced it. Good job!
    249
  38. There isn't a lot of attila content on youtube so I really appreciate that you took this time to flesh it out. It was great listening to you, keep it up

  39. Imagine, after living your whole life in the same village, opening up this map and dwelling over the wonders and mysteries of the world; staying awake at night pondering it all.

  40. History Channel could learn from Youtubers like you instead of wasting millions on a "documentary" just to end with the moronic "conclusion" that aliens did it.
    225
  41. I wish I had YouTube and sites like these when I was in school in the 70's and 80's. I would have paid a lot more attention to the material I was being taught in history class (both ancient and modern) as videos like these would have made it more understandable, accessible and thus enjoyable to learn. Sigh....better late than never. Thank you for all the history lessons you teach!!

  42. I am Angolan. I have a Portuguese surname and I always wondered about our history with Portugal, my father always told me that when Angola was a part of Portugal, life was much better than it is here now. I wanted to know more about Portugal and this channel taught me so much about the Portuguese Empire. Its weird because I feel very proud of the history as if it is my own. I hope others feel this way too. Thank you for this channel for sharing this in so much detail. I hope my Portuguese brothers will also feel proud. Yes it was a rough history with some questionable actions, but overall one cannot deny how fascinating it was for brave men to travel so far into far off lands in search of adventure and fortune. A part of all of us longs for such glory. 🇦🇴🇵🇹❤

  43. Justinian's statue being melted down to make a cannon means he finally made it to a battlefield.

  44. This documentary is great, I began watching on my phone then switched it over to the tv and enjoyed a cold one. Well done sir!
    215
  45. I have Portuguese ancestors, but I am from the United States. When I was a child, my father would talk about the Portuguese with pride and admiration, going in depth about the discoveries of Portugal and how they changed the history of the world. My father passed when I was 12, but I always had a fascination of my ancestors and their feats. Your videos go so in depth of the specifics, and I thank you for your research and efforts in making these documentaries.

  46. Thank you for putting together this video,myself born in Portugal i am proud to see how our people took back our lands from the moors,Viva Portugal and Viva Espana

  48. As a greek, i feel quite disappointed that byzantium is just remembered for its fall to the ottomans.

  49. Scipio along with Subutai and Belisarius are of the most underrated commanders in history.

  50. This is brilliantly done by the way! Very professional. The narrator has a very pleasing voice which is easy to listen to. Combined with some solid research, this is really an excellent presentation.
