April the twenty fourth, eleven eighty four BC, the Greeks

42
00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:35.919
they had been unable to conquer the city of Troy,

43
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:37.960
so they offered them a peace offering. It was a

44
00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:41.039
large wooden horse, twenty five feet tall, ten feet wide,

45
00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:43.319
and eight feet long. The Trojans were so happy that

46
00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:45.560
they brought the horse inside the city gate. They had

47
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:48.319
themselves a big old party, celebrated late into the night.

48
00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:50.520
Then when they all finally went to sleep or passed out,

49
00:02:50.599 --> 00:02:53.000
forty great soldiers hiding in that horse got out and

50
00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:55.360
opened the city gates, and the whole Greek army was

51
00:02:55.439 --> 00:02:57.879
hiding nearby came in that saw. They conquered the city

52
00:02:57.879 --> 00:02:59.680
of Troy. Now the City of Troy thought it was

53
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:02.120
