I never saw the video, but if you eliminate some of the other choices, it's not all that hard.

Columbus could have used either an astrolabe or a compass to sail his three-mast (maybe?) ship to the new world.

Weaved cloth has been around for way longer than the 1600's, probably back in centuries BC.

Enough hints for you? :)

The Printing Press and The mast sailing ship.

The printing press enabled people to more widely speak of their travels and adventures to far off lands via newspapers, books, etc...

The sailing ship enabled people to more easily find new land and products.

Okay, well try to reason it through! Think about it slowly and carefully, okay? It's asking you to view your world, you know, are you big, small, holy, religious, near, far, important, an isolated planet, what? Really IMAGINE being some middle class guy in England around 1680 going about his business and then hearing or working with these objects ...... which ones might REALLY alter how he viewed his place in the world? Certainly not a fabric loom. Think it through.
