The Colosseum: Rome’s Arena of Death

A fast-paced history documentary about how the Colosseum worked—and why it obsessed Rome Welcome to the single deadliest tourist attraction in human history. In this episode of Bee Explained, we peel back the marble facade of the Roman Colosseum to reveal the brutal engineering and dark politics behind the ancient world's greatest spectacle. From the specific grit used to sponge up gladiator blood, to the Jewish slaves who built it upon the ruins of a destroyed civilization, this isn't the romanticized history you learned in school. Discover how Romans flooded the arena for naval battles, the truth about the "thumbs down" gesture, and why the Empire eventually let this massive structure rot. In this video, we cover: • 🏛️ The Political Weapon: How Vespasian used the arena to erase Nero’s memory. • 🧱 The Dark Construction: The role of the Sack of Jerusalem and slave labor.  • 🌊 The Impossible Engineering: Flooding the arena for the Naumachia (Naval Battles).  • 🦁 The Beast Hunts: Exotic animals and the "machinery of death" underground. • ⚔️ The Gladiators: Why they were the "sports superstars" of their day (and why they didn't always die). #colosseum m #ancientrome #history #documentary #gladiator Disclaimer: This video is for educational and entertainment purposes only.
