I am descended from one of the minority groups of China. My people still live in Yunnan and Sichuan. I've heard stories of them doing this as well because the majority Han at the time, who we were warring with, forbade my ancestors to bury their dead in the "ground." This also prevented them from being dug up.

When they finally found the damaged coffin and the bones, 37:45, you could hear the sounds of children playing below them on the riverbank. It was then that I saw a link of sorts to the Han burials who bury their dead on the sides of hills so they could overlook the living.

And when the construct collapses,straight down into the river. Talk about honouring the dead. The effort is far from trivial. There is an Inca tradition of grass rope bridging so the footpaths between gorges are connected. Every year the suspension bridges are replaced,so the villages have an institutional memory of how to do this. Very different reason,but a common community skill of that village. This is not a trivial exercise. For this to go on for generations,there must have been a powerful desire. Not just a family,but a clan or an entire village would be needed.

Yes, 'eventually' they will rot. But those coffins have been hanging there for 800-500 years (as scholars generally place their date within A.D. 1127-1500)... so that eventuality might be in the next couple of centuries. I think opening the coffins would definitely solve a lot of mysteries. For example, collecting DNA from the skeletons will throw light on the fate of the Bo people (i.e. where their descendants are today).

Some photos that you use is our hanging coffin in sagada philippines

Excellent documentary 👏👏🍿

Going to fully watch through tomorrow

this video's thumbnail caught me because it was familiar... and i realized the picture of the hanging coffins is actually the hanging coffins in our place Sagada, Mountain Province, Philippines. Please use the correct images for your thumbnails!!

Very interesting and we must study the history of wonderful people. Astonishing.

I believe there may be a far more simple reason for this. We grieve for our dead because of their absence in our lives. If I had the option to place my deceased loved ones in a high, safe, visible location overlooking the area I lived, where I could look up at any time throughout the day and see the very casket in which my beloved family member slept, I would endure any means necessary to accomplish this.

remember that in previous time, there are kungfu master that can fly 😅

This is absolutely fascinating. It's interesting how the ancient tribes of China are so like the ancient tribes here in the US. They, too, had "sky burials" (though not like these) and siege warfare resulting in near genocides. It just goes to show how much people have in common, no matter where. It was kinda crazy how they drove into the middle of nowhere on a path westerners would not recognize as a road, then hiked two hours along the Chinese equivalent of a cattle trail, and just when you think they're in the nowhere part of nowhere, there's suddenly a very impressive bridge!

There is a history of sky burials in much of Persian history as well. Before Islam. Exposure on a raised area,or a special construct mound.

I love you guys very much I'm so glad that you guys are still there... Ohhh. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you.

China is so beautiful to me... So much history there!

@jettmcleod4469 Dude you talk about other countries' governments disparagingly when you're LITERALLY FROM A WESTERN COUNTRY. Have some self awareness. Do you know most Chinese support their government? You don't know better than they do.

When you are the last of your tribe to die and no one is left to hang your coffin :(

I finished watching Ultimate Note recently and this video was interesting

Good show. Thanks 👍❤️❤️❤️❤️

I clicked because of the thumbnail 😅

Creepy, bizarre and totally interesting Doco. Had never heard of these hanging coffins in China or Sagoda for that matter.

Ancient people's were really something special. From Africa to China to Europe and the Americas. What a fascinating species we are

Amazing documentary wow so fascinating and we have something similar at North Thailand (Mae Hongson) but the wooden coffins they are high up in the cave

That's not in China, it's from Sagada, Mountain Province, Philippines. (Hanging Coffin Photo Thumbnail) 😉

Why use thumbnail of hanging coffins in the Philippines when doing a doc on China?

Thanks for your sharing the uniqueness of burial of the dead... But why so high up the cliff 🤔🤔🤔

Thank you
