Pretty cool but I don't really get the title. I think it's very interesting how they take movies and blend them into the video. I'm glad we didn't actually see the corpse of those mummies. I've already seen an actual one, nothing you'd want to see twice!

FYI Anaïs , it said in the video that the mummies brain was extracted and a curse was placed upon the mumy for eternity (dramatic music along with pause). It may seem odd that I like what I posted, but I thought it was a pretty cool video. It wasn't just that video but: PEOPLE OUT THERE!!! THE ENTIRE WEBSITE IS COOL SO CHECK THAT OUT AND SEARCH ANYTHING, YOU WILL BE AMAZED! That may have sounded a little strange, but seriously.

Wow, that's creepy. It is very peculiar how all of the research team died out, and also Carnarvon's family also. Mummy curses could actually be true, or it could just be by coincidence. Like the guy said, most of them died at an old age, nothing strange there.

I really liked that video. It was really interesting. It was kind of freaky how so many people died because of some curse.

This video was kind of weird, but interesting. Not something I would think about everyday, but a cool video. I don't really believe in the curse. Dogs can die for many reasons, and tons of people get depressed and shoot themselves--well maybe not tons, but some.

That was a little weird. Overall it was okay but it was a little confusing. I mean "You Were Warned" and the exploding dog and people shooting each other on accident was very weird.

That was a pretty darn awesome video. I liked learning about the mummy and where it was placed after a while. The choice of having it be a vide instead of an article was interesting as well, and it was a really fun blog post to watch. I wish I could watch more about this topic; I find it very interesting. Great pick, Emma!

I loved this. My favorite part was when the dog blew up. It was hilarious. But it was so interesting to me how the entire team died.

I really liked the video but I didn't really learn that much. I liked the music but why did they have to make it so dramatic? I will never know...
