I kept observing the scenery—it fascinated me. It was like a Jurassic Park or a journey into the past, but in a different, unique way.
There were videos, particularly ones with stunning scenes—dinosaurs, plants, and animals that seemed long extinct. But in every one of them, the cameras stopped unexpectedly at some point.
