There are new major findings on the shroud. You should do an update video

[egcoojf]

There is now evidence that the Shround may indeed be 2, 000 years old.

Before watching this video I was more sceptical of the Shroud of Turin, however listening to the facts of the case especially the possible historical route of the shroud from Jerusalem to Constantinople, France and on to Turin, the type of linen and the evidence that no natural explanations can be found for how the image is on the cloth have made me reconsider.
Thank you for your time and effort which went into making this thorough and unbiased video.

35:37 they were supposed to take five different sample from different areas. They took one thread, and cut it five times, and they knew what they were doing. Thanks for keeping it real.

This was the best documentary on the shroud I've seen. No off-the-wall theories, unbiased display of the facts and great historical facts I wasn't aware of. Excellent work sir!

[Ravensonng]

I have never seen a more comprehensive and unbiased documentary on the shroud than this one. Thank you so much for making it available to us.

[felldoh]

Metatron you rock man and thank you for sacrificing sponsor money for our better enjoyment (you did not have to do that and it did not go unnoticed!).

[DanielRyanScott]

Came here after about hearing of the newest study that did a much better job dating the materials by using a better method, multiple samples, and a cross examination with known materials from both medieval and antiquity time periods. Newest estimate is 50-70 AD.

Just sat down and watched this with my mom. Thank you 'tron, your work is loved!

Since the "Sudario of Oviedo" is mentioned, it's interesting to note that there are blood stains on that cloth, and those stains seem to match those that are in the face region of the figure in the Shroud of Turin, which makes even more likely that it was the matching "face cloth" mentioned by sources.

Even though this video was made before the new evidence that the Shroud dates to the time of Christ, this is still my favorite video on the Shroud of Turin and my go-to share for the topic. Thank you, Metatron!

[OneRedKraken]

18 minutes in and I think Metatron has touched on more material than an hour long documentary I saw on the shroud on either the Discovery or History channel. And I havent finished the video yet, but I am sure he wont loop back on previous things he said and endless hammer away at assinine points. YTers of this quality blow modern day tv production out of the water in terms of the depth they delve into subjects.

[ericheckenkamp]

As a Christian I am always skeptical of holy artifacts, and I found this was very interesting.

[jamesmcv]

I've read and seen a number of explanations about the shroud over the years. This is, by a large margin, is the most in depth I've seen. Most documentaries or articles seem to stop at "it's a medieval forgery", this one didn't. Just excellent work and research.

Typically when it comes to radiocarbon dating another factor to consider is the time window in which the object was purported to have originated. That is not the case here, as carbon's window is 50, 000 years - placing '2023 years ago' well within its effective window.

It typically comes up with older things, such as fossils - which are many many millions of years old. People (frequently but not exclusively young earth creationists) have a tendency sometimes to claim that 'we don't *really* know how old they are because carbon dating isn't accurate for things that old'. While yes, carbon won't work for objects that old... there is an entire table of 118 elements each with their own radiological windows. Typically for really old things, we use radium. Not carbon. The general public doesn't know/care, though, and just calls it 'carbon dating' regardless of what element was actually used, causing the confusion.

It makes me wonder - if we performed another radiological dating experiment with the shroud, would it be worth checking other elements with similar windows - not just carbon - in order to verify the accuracy of the original findings... like say... iron... or rather... the oxygen attached to the iron. We know that there are iron oxides in at least two parts of the shroud - a thin coating on the surface, and the stains near the wrists, side, and feet. We also know that the thin coating *did definitely* originate during the medieval period as they were replicating the image, whereas the other stains would have definitely originated from the time period in which the shroud originated. This would give us a control to ensure, beyond any doubt, whether the dating is indeed correct.

Catholic here who has always been very interested in the shroud, you did an excellent job with this. Very well done!

[Daaab]

There should be a "quality content" button on YouTube.
Great video, I'm not religious, but fairly interested in such topics, and it was a real pleasure to watch the whole video.

[jacquiej]

A few more interesting things about the dating of the shroud.
1.Cotton fibers were found in the carbon dated corner of the shroud by at least 8 different researchers, Not as a surface contaminant, but woven into the threads, and this cotton wasn't found in the rest of the otherwise linen shroud. multiple lines of evidence show that the samples came from a repaired corner: King Umberto II of Italy, whose family used to own the shroud, says that in 1694 they repaired the shroud's heavily frayed and missing edges.

2.The carbon-14 dated corner is thinner and has lighter weft (vertical) threads than the rest of the shroud.

3.Research Ray Rogers found vanillin (from the breakdown of lignin) in the carbon-14 dated corner of the Shroud, the medieval backing cloth added to the shroud, and other medieval linens, but not in the rest of the shroud, the dead sea scrolls, or other ancient linens.

4. In photographs, three modern textile repair experts have claimed to see differences of the linen between the bottom left corner and the adjacent cloth

Looks like we’re gonna need an update with the new dating data for the shroud now!

The last year or so has really brought me around on this one
