[00:00:00]Humans have built many palaces and forts above ground, but deep inside the earth of China lies a terrifying and unique place where over 8,000 life-sized clay soldiers stand in battle formation.

[00:00:15]We're talking about the Terracotta Army, which was accidentally discovered by a farmer in 1974 while digging a well.

[00:00:24]The most amazing thing about this place is that these clay soldiers are nearly 2,200 years old. Buried near the tomb of China's first emperor, Qin Shi Huang, to protect him in the afterlife.

[00:00:38]The most mind-blowing part is that out of this entire massive [music] army, no two faces are identical. Every single soldier has distinct facial features, expressions, hairstyles, and armor, making it look as if a real living army was frozen into stone.
