Did you feel the feeling of spirits pressing up agianst you? My photography teacher went and said that he felt the feeling of people pressed up agianst him although no one was touching him...
I have been out of H.S. for about 8 years now but that question has stuck with me.... just curious if anyone else has had this experience he spoke of.....
One day I will find out but until then I want to know if you felt that?

There is definitely something there, although I cannot tell you for sure what it is or what it may be.
I know that many people lost their lives in the Coliseum. Maybe a pagan or medium here in Yahoo Answers have been there and have an explaination and I would love to hear it.
By the way, if you go there, don't take the least expensive tour. You get to see more of it in the Discovery Channel than in the cheap tour. I had to pay more money to another tour company to take me back to the coliseum to be able to really appreciate it.

I didn't feel that, nothing ghostly or spiritual, but lots of times, especially in Rome or Pompeii, I had the funny realization that all the local people around me were the descendants of the ancient people, which obviously they all were. So the ancient people were actually not dead, they were all right there still, and that was kind of wonderful, though creepy. They were (or their genetics were) still breathing, living, loving, etc.
The other exciting realization I had was seeing, in the ancient streets, the huge difference in how the poor Romans lived and the rich Romans lived---in Pompeii, a poor family might live in a cubbyhole just behind their shop, or right on the street, in a small corner. The rich people lived in a spacious home with all the luxuries, or a large villa. It was that way then, and it will be that way forever----the miseries of the poor, and the joys of the rich.

I did visit the Colseum in Rome as well as other major historical sites. I didn't get the feeling of being pressed against, but did get the feeling I 'd been there before and belonged there. Mark Anthony.

No. I visit the place a "long time ago" and I don't feel any spirits.
Visit the Coliseum is surrealistic experience is like entry in the past. Rome is living museum.
