  1. In my opinion, the moment that has suprised me is the photo which you can see a woman talking about working. It has surprised me because is the moment when the woman start to work in jobs like factories because men are in the war.

  2. There are many images that shocked me because the human history has a lot of terrifying facts. Some of the most are, the one that appears a child looking like a skeleton, that I suppose he was Jewish because it was in the nazis part of the video, and the other one is the one that there's a man taking his own life because of the World Trade Center terrorism act. I think that they're the hardest pictures to see, they're too much painful and tragic.

  3. One of the events that have impressed me is the Hitler’s period. He started to kill people with bombs and to destroy the wonderful planet that people and the nature had created. It was like he wanted to end with all the things that had been created.

  4. José Manuel Barroso 1st-Batxillerat The thing that impressed me most was the World War. Because Adolf Hitler rose to the top of Germany and absorbed the minds of the vast majority of the German people. A lot of deaths in all concentration camps where they worked hard which did not belong to the German pure breed.

  5. The picture that shocked me the most was the picture where you can see a man jumping from the window of the twin Towers to suicide.
    That picture shocked to me because this person knows that he's going to die in that jump, and you have to be brave to jump out the window, maybe if it had not jumped, had also died but he had the brave to jump.

  6. In my opinion the fact that it's the most shocked are the nazism scenes. Although we have seen a lot of times, symbolize one of the most important cruel acts in our history (The Holocaust).
    I believe anybody can't imagine how people has been suffered in concentration camps, because they were staying in a miserable living conditions without electricity, water and food. Such that men shared small bunkhouses in an area and women in another.
    In conclusion, the jews were living with a feeling of despair and death increasingly near.

  7. I’ve been impressed the most by the Nazi flags. In this picture appeared some soldiers in row that were wearing a lot of flags with the Nazi symbol and also in the distance you could see a big group of German people around the flags witch identify them. I’ve been shocked by this picture because it represents the event of Hitler dictatorship and I’m really fascinated about the importance that German people given at this dictatorship.

  8. The moment that has shocked me most, has been when Nazis appeared, probably because I didn't imagine that would come out as a historical fact.
    I was also impressed by the fact that it seems that each time we are doing worse, really we have to ponder about this.

  9. These events, which I was surprised more been: In the Second World War, the pictures of Hitler in power, persecuted and discriminated against Jews, as well as nowadays humans are destroying the planet by increasing natural disasters, the Poles melt... I think that this video summarizes very well the history of the Earth and that we need change in mentality to continue to evolve and protect the planet.

  10. The picture that has impressed me the most is the one where you can see some egipcian pyramids. I think it is incredible that with almost no recurses the were able to build that wonderfull buildings. In my opinion, ancient buils are the best way to make us see that althought they weren't as avanced as we are nowadays, they were very clever.

  11. The picture that most impact me it’s in the end, when appear some tsunamis, icebergs, epidemics and other natural disasters. This pictures impact me because are the final of the moon and I imagine more or less the same that in the pictures. This video I liked very much because explains the moon’s history in a short time and visual.

  12. The historical fact that shocked or impressed me most is the Second World War, because it was an authentic genocide. Died a lot of innocent people.

  13. About this amazing video, the historical event which have impressed me with more incidence is the Big Bang, which is the theory that holds the center of the universe and its creation.
    I think that this is the fact that represents the base of the actual and the previous life and the reason why the humanity and the wildlife exists nowadays.
    After that, in the video, we can watch the other historical events that wouldn't have been possible without the Big Bang, life's base.

  14. When I was watching the first minute and a half, I didn't take notice in nothing in particular, but when the Twin Towers' fotos began to appear I realized that I had to talk about that moment.
    I don't know why, but I could never forget the time I saw these images, probably because I was too small to understand what was happening. I remember that I didn't understand how a plane could crash with a building? I had been slow to understand that it had been knowingly and surely anyone who had seen those images could never forget them.

    1. In general, the video is really impressive, full of very important historical events for humanity; the bad thing is that most of them were very tragic and painful. But the historical fact that has impressed me most was Hitler's period. He killed many innocent people, especially Jews. He wanted to have dominion all over the nation. I also was impressed by the Jewish boy who looked like a skeleton.

  15. I think that all the video is the true of our history, but there is a picture that stand out of the others (for me). This photography appears in 1:06 and is when the Nazis were forward to invade Europe. I think that this picture it’s really gloomy, because it remembers me about all that had happened and if I imagine it, is extremely stressful. I hate this picture but it is the picture that stayed in my mind.

  16. There are a lot of pictures that has impressed me like the pictures of wars because you can see the destructive death, the pictures of diseases like cancer or the photos of the assault of 11-S. But I think that the picture that has attracted my attention is the one where you can see an american soldier praying. For me, it's a really expressive pictures because you can see a soldier wishing to return to home alive. This thing makes me reflect about the lucky that we are to be where we are and above all, to be alive and healthy.

  17. The most impactant moment for me in this video is in the middle of the video, more or less when it appears the historical event of Nazis, for me this group is so stricking and the horrible things that they did in the past with other people in the concentration camps, it was so cruel and when I always see photos of Nazis, I feel so worried because it's too hard to see pictures about it.

  18. The images that have impressed me most are the people jumping from the twin towers, because when it happened I was very small but I still remember the day I saw this on TV and lots of people died in that attack

  19. The historical fact that shocked or impressed me most are the differents photos about the Second World War becouse the suffering of innocent people, including children that they are very hungry becouse they didn't have anything to eat, and that's very shocked for me.

  20. The photo that has impacted me more, is the photograph of a child crying alone, which the heartbroken and without family, after the hiroshima bomb.
    This bomb destroyed many people and family's and building in the area of the bomb, giving out nuclear contamination that the lasted many years ago.
    In conclusion I think that humans should not us fighting for political or racial situations, but that we should support each other.

  21. The image that have shocked most to me is the once a man is pulled down of the twins tower. That one have shocked most to me because the man don't see any alternative to live since a plane have crashed in the tower and that image have shocked to me as is an historical event that I remember to be in my home and see the news of the 11S.

  22. The historical event that has impressed me more than the others is the final part of the video, which shows us our planet's future. If we don't take care of our planet we will destroy it for sure. This event has impressed me a lot because actually we aren't awared about the damage we are doing to the planet.

    Many things have sorpresed me but especially the photo where we can see a man decreasing the twin towers vacuum. It is touching image, I will never forget it.

  24. The moment of the video that has shocked me the most is when it appears three or four images about impacts of planes and crashes with some buildings. I suppose one of them is about the World Trade Center, which were destroyed in the September 11 attacks of 2001. It has impressed me because, even I’m so interested in this attempt, I had never seen the terrible image of a men falling down or the people covered of ashes.

  25. The picture that has shocked me the most is the first picture of Nazism that appears because was in that exact moment of the video I’ve realized that humanity has becoming the owner of the Earth leaving behind the fact that we are a little part of the nature and all of us depend on it in the same way instead of destroying the planet and killing between us. We are building up a society plenty of prejudices, superficial values... and we have forgotten our real roll in the world.

  26. I this video we can see a lot of impactant photos and of cuorse all of them are very important moments in the history of our world but the best photo for me is one where there's a woman and she is saying: "We can do it!". I like a lot this one because it represent a change of mentality in the society of the XX century, when the women started to have the importance that we need.

  27. The moment that has shocked me the most is when I have seen the terrible attempt that happened in New York City on 11 September of 2001.I have remembered how the days was. I have been there twice and I could feel how the disastrous and dramatic moment was.

  28. The picture that impact me more was the photo that appears all of nazis followers because I don't know how that people follow a movement that kills a lot of inocent people and do something like enslave a lot of jews only because they are of another religion. I think that this was one of the worst things that have ever passed to the world and this is why I selected this picture the one that impact me more.

  29. The moment that has impressed me most was when it started appearing photos of the Twin Towers, especially one showing a man falling from the top. When I was small and I saw this pictures I didn't know exactly why people were so desperate with that accident but now, over the years, I understand why, and I think that this assault was an injustice.

  30. The pictures that shocked me more are the ones that show the inovations that Leonardo Da Vinci did, he was a brilliant man who discoverd a lots of things that no one at that time could ever had imagined, he was good as an artist, his most famous painting is La Mona Lisa and it's think that there are a lots of secrets in it. In this video this painting stands in the screen more time that the other pictures, I think that is because the editor of it wanted to show the importance of this artist.

    I think that all the things that he discovered helped us in a good way to improve the science and the art of that edge.

  31. I wouldn't say they were the most shocking or important pictures , at all, but seeing The Beatles and John Lennon shows how influential music has always been in people and society. Although we are not aware of it, music can be involved in politics, charity movements and many other things. So in my opinion it's a good idea to include The Beatles as they were important and meant a lot for many people.

  32. I think the fact which impressed me the most it is every sequence of pictures about nazism. It was a very hard time for jews and it is incredible to believe that someone could have been so evil, and completely devoid of respect and humanity. Another thing that impressed me, it is what we are doing with our planet. We don't mind enough our home as we must do it and this is a serious mistake. We should take care for our planet Earth.

  33. The picture that has impressed me the most is when appears a black person with handcuffs. This class of people has suffered a lot, because anybody wanted to be with them and specially the american government had marginalized them a lot. For example in the bus, the black people couldn't sit with white people. Nowadays this people has more human rights than years ago, but i think the racism is a very important point that we have to remove.

  34. September 11th attacks shocked me the most. I think it was a terrible tragedy that never should have happened and that attacks killed a lot of innocent people. It was an inhuman action from all points of view. Their loved ones will always keep they in their minds and hearts.

  35. The fact that impressed me the most is the disaster of Twin Towers. This event was striking because people had to decide how they wanted to die and this decision is too difficult. There were a lot of destruction and victims this day in New York.

  36. The picture that has shocked or impressed me most is the Twin Tower's. I think this picture shows many things like the cruelty of some people and the suffering of others and although it has been one of the worst acts of history it demostrated  the courage and solidarity of society.
    In conclusion the horrible things sometimes do get the good side of people.

  37. In my opinion, the most shocking image in this video is the one that there’s a black skin man with a kind of handcuffs, meaning that he is a slave. In these times, there was a lot of racism, and it was too cruel to the black skin men, so I think that it was a shocking period, when people was judged by the social status or them color skin.

  38. Personally I think that this is a very powerful video. Gradually, when you stop to analyze every photo you realize how much damage humans have caused. Since the slavery of black people, passing through the Nazi Holocaust, the Vietnam War, Hiroshima's bomb or even the destruction of the Twin Towers, and many more awful events that had marked humans’ history forever, and it’s hard to say which is the most devastating. But to be honest, the fact that has impacted me the most is the final of the video, because these photos are representing our present in an alarming situation where we don’t have many options. For that reason, the most worrying event for me is the confusing future that is coming.

  39. There are some historical facts that have impressed me like the Twin Towers' images or the first animal species, but the most was the Nazi ideology. Because I think that in this historical event the German people were horrified, specially the Jews, because Hitler killed many people in concentration camps where these people worked hard for he. In my opinion this period was one of the most important, and the people still remember everything that happened.

  40. The first time I saw the video, what struck me most was the image which  people were carrying out the fascist salute. I selected this photo because I still do not understand the mentality of those who were in favor of a dictatorship, and they loved and respected Hitler like a God.

  41. The historical event that most impressed me, is the launching into orbit of the Sputnik 1, that corresponds to the photo of that satellite.

    Not for any political reason, but because I've always been fascinated by the sky and the stars, and that was a big step to know more about the universe.

  42. The picture that more impact have to me is the twin towers photo. When a man jumps down from one of the twin towers and he know that is going to die, it shocks to me because if he had been more time in a tower he would have been more possibilitys to survive.

  43. At first, I would like to say that the whole video has impressed me, not only for his shocking images but also for his epic music which fits incredibly well with them. But, if I had to choose one image I would definitely opt for the one where we could see the first Homo Sapiens.
    The reason to choose that photograph is that it makes me think about the origin of the use of reason, it makes me think in the slim line that divides humans and animals and how is it possible that humans and not other animals evolve to reach this amazing point of intelligence. It also makes me feel that the beginning of the most important era in the planet Earth begins with this simple photograph.

  44. For me the most impacting fact was the attack on the twin towers and especially the picture of the man falling down. That picture have reminded me about my mother telling me that she saw this fact in TV and was so shocking, and that people prefered to fell down off the building than die inside burned.

  45. The fact that has impressed me more it's on the last part of the video when appear some images which mean that the human will destroy the earth with our terrible pollution. Also, in the video seems that it will happen soon.
    Perhaps someday the earth will be destroyed and also I know that our pollution is very damaging for the planet but I think that there's still a long time for this to happen, we have no idea what will happen in the future. Júlia Garriga 2n Batx.Bio

  46. The images in this video that impressed me most were the scenes of Nazism. Nazism led to one of the worst moments suffered by humans. Currently we are not used to seeing such images and that's what made ​​me so surprised. These images are very violent and I am not so nice to see small children passing through these situations. I spent a hard time seeing children crying or internship wrong.
    I wish that such situations would not have to repeat again to avoid seeing these pictures so painful.

  47. Generally all these images have affected me but if I have to choose an image, I opted for the latest pictures where you can see how the earth disappears.
    It is sad to see how all the things that has been created finally are destroyed. Many years have gone through to get to the current situation. It is true that many misfortunes have happened throughout our history. These are facts that are trying to forget but always at some point in our life reappear.
    These images are montages, but this future fact is being talked about a lot today and could become a reality. We must do everything possible to prevent our Earth or it will disappear forever.

  48. First of all I should said that all this photographs not only show us the moment when they happened some of the most important and shocked facts in the world since the Big Ban until nowadays, because make us feel a lot of senses during a short period of time; in fact, all of them are absolutely amazing but instead they qhow us the best and the worst successes happened around the world,
    But,in my opinion, the instantly when appears the fall of the Berlin Wall is absolutely fascinated.
    In this moment not only desappeares a wall, his fall allowed so many families that had passed a lot of years separated they could be together again. In fact, it's impossible to feel or express the same emotions as had the people who lived there but the moment when this picture appears in the video.
    It's like a stop in the history where take place the strength and the courage of the people to be free and defend what they think against those who don't respected.

    In this video I had seen many images that have impacted me so that made me think that it's incredible how man and women can be as cruel and in the same time so wonderful,because in this images we can see people who has done important things and brilliant, and another that has done bad acts. But the image that impacted me most was the moment when appear the nazis flags,because I think that this was a moment that marked part of the history.

  50. If i had to highlight one image of this gorgeous video, I'd took the begining, the Big Ben. This big explosion had produced rather years ago, so nobody con conmirmed it because anybody was there. However, scientists said that the Big Ben made, in long-term, humanity will appeared.
