The spectacles staged here involved the killing of tens of thousands of gladiators, prisoners, and wild animals.

Now, a team of modern builders and engineers test their theories by building a trap door- pulley system capable of lifting a beast into the Colosseum. Do they have what it takes to replicate the innovation and ingenuity of the Romans?
