I am, and always will be blown away with the innovation of ancient civilisations during a siege. It’s just.. mind blowing what they could achieve BY HAND in weeks/days.
-
The way you tell these stories makes me feel as if I could have been there. Your channel stands out to me because of this. Very stirring.
-
I have watched this video numerous times, and I am continually impressed. The research, script, technical development, and presentation are outstanding. I have read and still teach Josephus, and his descriptions are quite vivid and dramatic. This production is very balanced and left me feeling, perhaps, like the Romans, amazed that the besieged kept coming up with new ideas. I encourage everyone to read Josephus; his depictions are vivid and emotional
-
Absolutely incredible amount of work and research went into this! Well done!
-
I’ve watched hundreds, perhaps a thousand, history videos on YouTube. This was the best battle video I’ve ever seen. Standing ovation my man
-
I started this video thinking I would skip most of it, or change the play speed. Nope, was captivated by every second of it. This was an amazing production and great example of storytelling. The final statement was well put. Thank you to everyone involved in making this!
-
Great work on this video. You deserve accolades for making this video. I think there should be an award for best YouTube documentary in the Oscars as well. If so, this video would have easily won.

I never realized just how long this siege lasted and especially how hard the Jews fought defending their City. I always try and put myself into the story and imagine the physical conditions of what the people were experiencing, and this visual telling made it much easier for me to do just that. And after this experience, I know I understand better how it must have been for both the Romans as well the Jewish people. The word horror just doesn't begin to describe it. Thank you.

40 minutes went by like 4. This was breathtaking, especially the ending
-
This is one of the most incredible videos on Youtube. Thank you for taking the time to put so much detail into this.

Titus sacrificed a pig in the temple. Bro, that was a massive slap in the face.
-
Best documentary I’ve ever listened to/watched.. heard most of it at work no visual and was captivated. Now I’m finishing it off at home and realize how these simple visuals took it to another level.. Especially after being engrossed over half an hour already
-
One of the best recounts of the battles at Jersalem. Thank you.
-
Invicta I LOVE how you manage entertain, teach, and convey that while history is fascinating, it can also be horrible. Its easy to be swept up in the facts, numbers, and strategy and forget people suffered horribly in ways we will never know. Snuffed out by the violence we so love to read about but dread to imagine. You're a treasure for us mate. Thanks for the hard work
-
What a historical moving document. Thank you for your effort!
-
A very sensitive, sensible, poignant and absorbing rendition of a calamity but also a superb tale of unrivaled courage of a people fighting for their religion, honor and self-belief. The last line is a great take-away: it is time for mankind to reflect on all these past and present horrors and shy away from inflicting unwanted and even counter-productive pain and suffering on others. Thank you so much for this brilliant video which I will recommend without hesitation to anyone who cares about humanity to watch.
-
Your appreciation for human life and perspective-maintaining at the end of your videos is what really sets you apart from other historical presentations of such events. You've got a good head on your shoulders, and have taught me to see battles as more than just numbers vs numbers. I respect you highly for this.
-
what a HUGE effort put into a video. As a Christian, I have heard about and discussed the "Destruction of the Temple in 70 AD' in a way that seems almost flippant to me now. So often we forget as we read history that it involves REAL people. Thanks for making the Bible event more real to me. I look forward to viewing more from you. You deserve the massive amount of subscribers you have.
