The Lost Empire
:00:57 My love of Chinese history and culture
:00:59 inspired me years ago to
become a China scholar.
:01:04 Who could have guessed how
I'd end up using my knowledge.
:01:07 So this is your idea of an
investment opportunity
:01:10 ...these statues. What are they called?
:01:12 The famous terracotta warriors.
:01:15 Each one modeled after
some real person
:01:17 who lived more than
two thousand years ago.
:01:20 Well, they're certainly dead now.
:01:22 How many are there?
:01:24 About seven thousand in all.
:01:26 The Emperor Qin Shi Huangdi
spent his whole life
:01:28 building massive underground tombs
around here.
:01:31 One is said to even contain a replica
:01:33 of all China in miniature.
:01:35 Really?
:01:36 Then why isn't that on our itinerary,
Mr. Orton?
:01:38 Well there's only one problem.
That tomb's never been opened.
:01:41 Its entrance is littered with booby traps.
:01:44 The Emperor wanted to make sure that
:01:45 the price of admission into his
prize chamber would be death.
:01:47 Good safety tip?
:01:51 This place is a wreck.
:01:55 We'll need to invest in proper lighting
:01:58 build some amusement rides
to entertain the children.
