My name is Leroy, Kenton and oh my god
If you're sensitive, I'm warning you right now that this video is likely to make you a little uncomfortable
Because of some of the images I'm taking a look at ten people with the best preserved bodies from all around the world
starting at number 10
We have ramasees the great
ramasees
Ii also known as rama sees the great is considered by many as the most powerful pharaoh of ancient egypt he ruled for almost seventy
years from around
1279 to 1213 BC in 1881
His mummy was discovered and he was still very well preserved
The face of the mummy gives a really good idea of what he actually looked like
At number nine we have the Otzi Iceman in 1991 a group of hikers in the adult Alps on the Austrian Italian border
found a body using radiocarbon dating scientists were able to determine that he was frozen about
5,300 years earlier he had fallen into an ice pocket and he was preserved
So well that his brain and other internal organs as well as his body here and even one of his eyeballs were completely intact
dated around
1475 AD the Inuit maybe was discovered by accident in
1972 in an abandoned Inuit settlement called Calicut suck by two brothers who were hiking in Greenland the little Inuit
Baby, boy attracted a lot of attention around the world when he was first found he thought that it was a doll
The body was actually of a six-month-old baby boy. He was burned alive with his mother
Here we have her David
David is a member of the group known as the tower mummies
His remains were discovered in the Taklamakan desert in northwest China. It's believed that he lived up until
1000 BC and lived to the age of 50 years old
Brasilia Lombardo comes at number 6 thousands of visitors every single year flocked Italy to see her
Approximately a hundred years later Rosalia has barely changed at all
She's still sealed away inside of her tiny glass coffin at just age of 2 years old
Her father could not handle losing his daughter
So he hired an embalmer to preserve the body the results were miraculous because her brain and other organs are still intact
At the halfway mark, we have Dashie doors
Oh it tigil off born in 1852 - adore zoe tickle of was appointed the 12th panda toe combo lama
Meaning he was the head of buddhism in russia in the year 1927 when he was 75 years old
He had stepped down from his position. He had told his followers to return to his body in 30 years
so they did that and Buddhists believe that the preserved condition that his body was found in is
evidence that he reached the state of emptiness that Buddhists strived to reach
The Tollund man comes in at number 4 and he lived during the 4th century BC in Denmark
He was found in the year 1950. There was short stubble on his chin as well as his upper lip
Also a rope was found around his neck where it's believed that he was hanged. He was preserved
So well that when he was found they determined that the last meal that he ate was porridge made from vegetables and seeds
One of the most lifelike bodies found was the Inca made in the Inca mummy was discovered in Argentina in the year
1999 on top of the 22,000 foot Mount Lula Lake
oh, she didn't decompose because of the cold temperatures at that high altitude and she had been frozen for
500 years the Incas would often sacrifice children in the mountains and being sacrificed was
Actually considered to be a great honor
Number two is Vladimir Lenin when you see his body his eyes are closed
He's got the reddish beard and his moustache is trimmed. Very neatly vladimir
Lenin was the first soviet leader
all of his internal organs have been completely removed leaving only the skeleton as well as the muscles and his body is
really and looked after by a team of dedicated
Specialists his body has been cared for since
1924 and finally, we have gins we known as lady died
She was of the chinese. Han dynasty her life came to an end in
163 BC and when they found her in 1971
Her hair was intact her skin was soft and its elasticity like a living person
Still remained on top of that her veins still had type-a blood
her body, however
Was compromised when oxygen in the air touched her body after it was found which caused her to start deteriorating fast
So the images that we have of her today are not even close to the initial discovery
