Imagine thousands of Mayan people clapping at the same time😱

I went last November and he was our guide! He was super friendly and knowledgeable.

The bird sound that you hear coming back from the pyramid, is the exact sound of a local bird from that area they ran it through a computer and it matches the exact same pitch of a local bird. That's awesome

[kurtfarrell]

I did this at the temple, it's amazing. If you turn 90 degrees you will hear the rattle of the snake. And another 90 degrees, so your back is to the temple.. you hear both at the same time.

[KidDynamite]

they should do a test with a thousand people clapping and see if theres some sort of mechanized event

[doodbro]

Ancient civilizations knew so much shit we don't and still cant understand, about how to manipulate sound and materials in the natural world. It's crazy. And then people just try to write this stuff off as neat or interesting, but this type of stuff could change the world

[OTOss]

That sound you hear is the same sound made by a bird native to the area. It's absolutely remarkable. They analyzed it with the most modern software and have found that it's precisely the same frequency and everything. As a result, whenever tourists stand in that specific spot and clap their hands, local birds flock to the top of the pyramid and being to furiously make love to the roof of the temple.

That’s so crazy! Mayans were simply amazing!

[laureen]

Who ever tuned that structure to the sound of a bird has a super gifted ears.

[TheHamsterMaster]

I remember being there and they demonstrated that exact same thing. To be standing in front of that marvelous structure is truly magnificent.

[AliceNsWonderland]

They believed the spirit of the dude that Temple was made for lives inside this specific kind of bird. The sound that comes out of the temple when you clap sounds EXACTLY like that bird! It's incredible!

[dianemurray]

I live among the Maya. They are incredibly resourceful and ingenious people.

[Blurberry-ozid]

My theory is that they built a cavity with the same “ cavity” or vocal chord system inside a quetzal

[TheRealTrucido]

Theres another place with the temples all around and you can hear someone whisper from 50ft+ away because of how the acoustics are.

[Proctorhigh]

I was there in the 70s when you could still climb the pyramid. The echo of a bird is new to me.. so cool

[tobascoheat]

Thanks for doing that! I had heard that the echo from clapping made a bird sound but I never could understand how that would sound!! That's amazing!!! I wonder how the Aztecs knew to do that??!!!

[FieryLotus]

This is my first time learning this and that just blew my MIND. I need to visit.

[barbarawentzel]

Mystical, magical, beyond, sounds just like green bird.

[alyciamarie]

If you clap in front of the pyramid the noise you hear back is to the pitch of a local bird! It’s absolutely amazing.

[viniciomelo]

One of the few structures saved from Spanish barbarism. They thought this was sorcery and destroyed it 😂
