So good! I’d been wanting a show to untangle the different ages so that I could figure out when things were. I love when lots of different pieces all get laid out and connected - like filling in a map!
People rarely think that all the species we know about during these ancient times barely reach 1% of the actual number of species that evolved during this time. All the information we get is from fossils and they only form under specific conditions, not to mention all the fossils that were destroyed by numerous reason over time ... Makes you wonder what horrific/amazing things roamed our Earth and we will never find out about it .
@@Justwantahover and global warming alarmists seem to think that if all the polar ice caps melt away we'll all die even though dinosaurs and most of the planets life did just fine without them for most of the time that large land animals have existed.
@@Justwantahover I don't really care to be honest. Climate changes, species go extinct and life recovers. It's how it works. There are bigger problems to worry about. Like getting to mars or hardening the power grid against failure from solar events. If we were serious about worrying about climate change then we should be going to war and killing everyone in the third world as they are the ones likely to cause the most pollution as they industrialize and modernize their societies. They are a massive threat to the global climate if they are allowed to continue to clear land for agriculture.
@@legionreaver You avoided the question by saying that you don't care. If you don't care about whether climate change is happening or not, then why are you having this conversation? You must care about something. So it's more important to go to Mars than doing something about climate change? All I want is your opinion on whether the ice caps are really melting as fast as they say. If your opinion is "yes they are" than why are you not worried that we may be in trouble? And why not try to do something about it instead of wasting our money on a one way ticket to Mars? Send all the flat earthers there and they can form the "Flat Mars Society".
I agree that it was a very awesome presentation. It was very interesting and very informative. Just imagine all of it's true to the life in the past and documented.
It is just so crazy to consider how remarkable the history of life on our planet rolls on. It shows how much life had to adapt and go through so many hoops to get us to where we are. Absolutely incredible !!
I'm trying to imagine what it would have been like to present just the information in this video to my elementary school teachers trying to teach us about prehistoric life. The amount of stuff here that was unknown/not taught even 40 years ago is huge!
My biology teacher at school did not except evolution. And although she taught it to us cause she had to, we also had to listen to her comments that "yeah, for me that seems impossible", "it is strange, but that's what the book says". so sad :(
Timi Sterr I get so mad when I hear stories like this. Seems to me that the teacher is a cowardly imposter. He/she accepts to make a proffesional life of teaching kids what he/she believe to be false - what a loser. Non-religious people are often competent to teach religious philosophy - too bad it seems to seldom be the other way around. I would've wished a better quality education for you, but luckily you seem to have turned out fine :)
I can understand all the people comparing this to Bill Wurtz's awesome video (I did too at first) but its actually not at all the same, this video is about a completely different topic altogether
The thagamizer was first named in a "far side" comic. Scientists read the newspaper, thought the weapon needed a name, and liked the name so much they made it official. RIP Thag Simmons.
I still find that hilarious. I was a fan of paleontology as a kid when that comic came out in calendar form and Dad and I laughed about it. At the time, I never would have guessed it would be officially adopted, but Dad and I were using it jokingly for decades before I ran across something officially calling it that. When I was young, they were still putting the spikes vertically on dinosaur toys, and I was the sort of kid who left his toys out on the floor, so as you can imagine, the thagomizer is something Dad feels very passionate about. It's his one-up any time someone mentions stepping on a Lego.
I imagine that a lot of aliens don’t have endosymbiotic cells so when they try and do genetic analysis of eukaryotic life on earth they’ll be really confused when they find two separate genomes in every cell.
Except this happened twice on earth. So what’s stopping us from believing that that is the standard- and that most advanced ‘cellular’ life would be devised that way?
lol good one!! That said, i think your response would best apply to the question "What era is it"... Time is normally referring to discreet units, rather than semi-arbutrary time-frames.

I really wish videos like these were around when I was a kid. Discovery and history channels have nothing on channels like this when it comes to easily digestible and relevant information.
You do know that Land Before Time had dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals from different time periods all living together right? Little Foot (Apatosaurus - Late Jurassic), Cera (Triceratops - Late Cretaceous), Ducky (Saurolophus - Late Cretaceous), Petrie (Pteranodon - Late Cretaceous) , Spike (Stegosaurus - Late Jurassic), Chomper (Tyrannosaurus - Late Cretaceous), and Ruby (Oviraptor - Late Cretaceous). Original Sharptooth, Chomper's Parents, and most of the Sharptooths (Tyrannosaurus - Late Creatceous) other Sharptooths (Allosaurus - Late Jurassic. Giganotosaurus - Early Cretaceous. Baryonyx - Early Cretaceous. Spinosaurus - Early Cretaceous. Deinonychus - Early Cretaceous) Underwater sharptooth (Mosasaurus - Late Cretaceous and Lipleurodon - Late Jurassic) and that Sailed Back Reptile in the first movie (Dimetrodon - Middle Permian). So Grass being Land Before Time is just continuing the misplaced wildlife trope.
This deserves more likes. I think the issue though is that anaerobic life doesn't have efficient enough energy production to support advanced intelligence. Although I guess we don't know enough to just assume that about all anaerobic life.
But planets with tons of oxygen need a constant supply of new O2; it scapes the atmosphere easily. Therefore, something unusual must be producing it (like us, Alien life!)
The Anthropocene epoch started in 1950 CE. So yeah, if you're older than 67, or 68 ish, you're actually born on the previous epoch of geological history.
I tried listening to this at work. At 6 minutes, 57 seconds, I could have sworn you were talking for 20 minutes. This is amazing but very information dense lol. Going to have to rewind a few times @_@
Hank: ..and if you were one of those kids who had a Dimetrodon in one of your coloring books Me **ohh yeah I remember those!** Hank: ..I'm about to ruin your world.
I am so glad that i live in era when we can see how our ancestors looked like. I mean even if we don't know all facts it is still very good. Because generations before us didn't have this pleasure. Every one of us can work with our imagination to complete the dots. Even that in the future people will probably learn a lot more, our generation is starter with giving all those pictures for everyone to see. Human brain interacts with this informations in the way that we imagine ourselfs near all those animals and plants through history and we can give our gratitude for every one of them for our big brain and evolution. Someone finaly can appreciate their lifes and lots of them who are extint now are not forgotten. They live in us!!

To just imagine the process of it all is very interesting .The beginning , the middle, the end, all very basic growth and developmental changes is what i would say. A very beautiful metamorphosis
I think I knew most of this coming into the video, but it is cool to have everything laid out clearly. The tree of life has been pruned by mass extinctions, allowing such an amazing variety of life forms to have their day. I think of all the animal groups shown the one I'm most curious about now is the pseudosuchians.
@@Mathew7245 we did, but it was creationism not evolution. Basically God pointed his finger and made the earth and everything in six days and we all evolved from Adam and Eve.
Navneet I’m Christian and most Christians don’t believe that. I believe that a lot of what this guy says is true but the people that were before Adam and Eve were soulless. They were here like the dinosaurs and were basically animals. We didn’t evolve from them but they basically died off. In Geniesis it says that there was earth and seas and God says let there be light. I believe he’s saying that he is bringing in new light to the dark world and creating new. Hope that lets you see some Christians in a new light. Science and Jesus can coexist. God Bless❤️
Great video guys, or videos. But when you talk about the endosymbiosis (minute 8:16) "one cell ate but didn't digest" another cell, there is a question... how could that cell self-replicate? regarding how did the development of internal new acquired organelles (mitochondria) get their own mitosis during cellular division.. or how did the new organelle get sequenced in the DNA of the cell so all new descendents will have mitochondrias? i know its a hard question, is there any info about it?

Well done. The name Thagomizer (at 24.46) origins from the cartoonist Gary Larson, who coined the name in a cartoon showing the late Simon Thago getting ended.. It was later taken up by people working in the area of these animals, and stuck.
I so remember Gary Larsons- his cows and his dogs going to work in their bus wearing their ties; and the two deer standing there chatting, one with a target on his chest... and the other one saying, "Bummer of a birthmark, Carl." So those genuine and brilliant science nerds took a name from a genuine, brilliant comedy writer/cartoonist's work to create an actual name for an actual brilliant creature from our deep past- kinda incorporating all that together. My head is whelming out of control. That's wonderful!
THANK YOU. I can remember having Dimetrodon lumped in with dinosaur toys I had as a kid, and in retrospect it pisses me off, as one who loves paleontology.
Yes, Dimetrodon mixed in with dinosaurs was inaccurate. But it is still a very cool beastie, and learning about it has been a lot of fun. If it were not included in the 'dino toys' some people might never have known about it.
Just think, the universe was made, the planets and stars were formed, life somehow started, the dinosaurs came and went, and out of all of the things that ever could have happened, here you are. Every time I’m feeling down I remind myself what an amazing chance I’ve been given. Don’t waste it friends!😊
I couldn't agree more, and what started out as basic elements fusing inside the core of sun's, has formed into complex arrangements which are aware of themselves and take in wonder of the universe from which they exist. Incredible.
What if The Great Dying was actually a previous iteration of sentient life on Earth, and they, too, messed up their climate with shenanigans? o.0 While I'm sure that's not the case, it does lead to interesting thoughts about how a future sentient species might view our impacts on the Earth.
While fun to think about, there is no evidence of any large scale energy usage, coal or nuclear. Which while doesn't mean it was impossible for there to be something else it would make it a lot harder.
@@rydaler Another large source of emissions is livestock, so if an advanced society could support a large population while remaining pre-industrial technologically, it could possibly trigger a climate shift. Perhaps it's a good thing that diseases kept human population lower until we could improve our technology o.0
@@renendarkfire infectious diseases started to become a problem when people began farming and storing large amounts of grain. Rodents started to move into human settlements and farms and began the spread of disease in humans. The problem became a thousand times worse when people moved into towns and cities with many people living close together. This extreme crowding is what caused infectious diseases in humans to take off and spread like wild fire. Instead of taking the not so subtle hint and abandoning their crowded lifestyle, they just kept breeding and getting even more numerous and crowded, and sicker. Then they created inventions to help them cope with the twisted and unnatural lifestyle they have created for themselves. And alas, it continues to this day. Why is it that we have the coronavirus? Because of overpopulation and crowding. And it's proving to be a bit too much even for an advanced 21st century society with all its latest technology.

@@ronwillis3167 LOL! If by 'respected scientist' you mean someone espousing crank views well outside their field of expertise, be my guest. When it comes to biology, I will trust the biologists more than any astronomer. But hey, lets get to your silly claim: www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CF/CF002_1.html Essentially, the demand that all of a modern cell form spontaneously, complete in every detail, in a single instantaneous event is ridiculous -- and it is the central claim behind the religious 'special creation' and all of its' disguises. Evolution works incrementally, as anyone who Actually Watched The Video would understand; variations arise, and some of those variations survive better in the environment they are in. Those variants usually leave more offspring; less successful variants leave fewer (or no) offspring. Over time even small variations add up to big changes.

11:54 "....another Celtic tribe which started 443 million years ago ..." Completely out of context but that is what I heard while listening and doing something else at the same time
That is one ancient tribe! Those are the humans you see fighting dinosaurs in B movies. It’s ironic for a show so focused on explaining really complex systems to make boo-boos like that. A good editor would’ve caught it.
There's evidence of even older art from other human subspecies, which, of course, have since gone extinct. Basically our dumb ancestors outcompeted their smarter cousins.
The Real Flenuan you mean our more practically minded ancestors. What is art good for if you can’t gather enough food to be able to do art w/o starving? Sounds like our ancient cousin species was the dumb ones.
The fact that we were able to uncover all this information over the last 100 years of our existence is miraculous
Its not 100% confirmed though, information and “facts” always change with more and more research
Imagine what we will learn in the next 50 with the way technology is advancing.
The fact that it happened in the first place is miraculous. Science is so cool.

I'm no slouch in science but this topic is tricky and kinda inconclusive. I'm extremely grateful that you guys made this video. It lays out an amazing foundation for independent research. Thank you! 😊
So good! I’d been wanting a show to untangle the different ages so that I could figure out when things were. I love when lots of different pieces all get laid out and connected - like filling in a map!
Oh god. It's like getting a clip show just before the series finale.
People rarely think that all the species we know about during these ancient times barely reach 1% of the actual number of species that evolved during this time. All the information we get is from fossils and they only form under specific conditions, not to mention all the fossils that were destroyed by numerous reason over time ... Makes you wonder what horrific/amazing things roamed our Earth and we will never find out about it .
And creationists seem to think we have found all the fossils to be found and therefore there "should" be no holes in the fossil record.
@@Justwantahover and global warming alarmists seem to think that if all the polar ice caps melt away we'll all die even though dinosaurs and most of the planets life did just fine without them for most of the time that large land animals have existed.
@@legionreaver We won't die but a lot of species will. Do you think the ice caps are melting as fast as the scientists claim?
@@Justwantahover I don't really care to be honest. Climate changes, species go extinct and life recovers. It's how it works. There are bigger problems to worry about. Like getting to mars or hardening the power grid against failure from solar events.
If we were serious about worrying about climate change then we should be going to war and killing everyone in the third world as they are the ones likely to cause the most pollution as they industrialize and modernize their societies. They are a massive threat to the global climate if they are allowed to continue to clear land for agriculture.
@@legionreaver You avoided the question by saying that you don't care. If you don't care about whether climate change is happening or not, then why are you having this conversation? You must care about something. So it's more important to go to Mars than doing something about climate change? All I want is your opinion on whether the ice caps are really melting as fast as they say. If your opinion is "yes they are" than why are you not worried that we may be in trouble? And why not try to do something about it instead of wasting our money on a one way ticket to Mars? Send all the flat earthers there and they can form the "Flat Mars Society".
I've never had anyone break it down like this before. Absolutely fascinating and way better than anything you'll get in most American schools.
As I replied before it so very interesting and informative with truth documented very educational.
This has to be by far the most epic presentation you guys have ever made, Thank you so much Sci show, enjoyed through and through.

I agree that it was a very awesome presentation. It was very interesting and very informative. Just imagine all of it's true to the life in the past and documented.

My biology teacher at school did not except evolution. And although she taught it to us cause she had to, we also had to listen to her comments that "yeah, for me that seems impossible", "it is strange, but that's what the book says".
so sad :(

In fairness, a lot of what evolution produces is strange...I know that’s not what meant tho ;P

Should've asked her why she was teaching something she didn't agree with... no one forced her to stay at that job. lol
Timi Sterr I get so mad when I hear stories like this. Seems to me that the teacher is a cowardly imposter. He/she accepts to make a proffesional life of teaching kids what he/she believe to be false - what a loser.

The thagamizer was first named in a "far side" comic. Scientists read the newspaper, thought the weapon needed a name, and liked the name so much they made it official. RIP Thag Simmons.
I still find that hilarious. I was a fan of paleontology as a kid when that comic came out in calendar form and Dad and I laughed about it. At the time, I never would have guessed it would be officially adopted, but Dad and I were using it jokingly for decades before I ran across something officially calling it that.
When I was young, they were still putting the spikes vertically on dinosaur toys, and I was the sort of kid who left his toys out on the floor, so as you can imagine, the thagomizer is something Dad feels very passionate about. It's his one-up any time someone mentions stepping on a Lego.
The “Thag o miser” was coined by Gary Larson in his Far Side comic! So classsic!!
"Life is easy, but survival is hard" true that
we make it more difficult for each other
Yeah. It applies to us too... people make babies every night, but "making it" in life is rather difficult.

You do know that Land Before Time had dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals from different time periods all living together right? Little Foot (Apatosaurus - Late Jurassic), Cera (Triceratops - Late Cretaceous), Ducky (Saurolophus - Late Cretaceous), Petrie (Pteranodon - Late Cretaceous) , Spike (Stegosaurus - Late Jurassic), Chomper (Tyrannosaurus - Late Cretaceous), and Ruby (Oviraptor - Late Cretaceous). Original Sharptooth, Chomper's Parents, and most of the Sharptooths (Tyrannosaurus - Late Creatceous) other Sharptooths (Allosaurus - Late Jurassic. Giganotosaurus - Early Cretaceous. Baryonyx - Early Cretaceous. Spinosaurus - Early Cretaceous. Deinonychus - Early Cretaceous) Underwater sharptooth (Mosasaurus - Late Cretaceous and Lipleurodon - Late Jurassic) and that Sailed Back Reptile in the first movie (Dimetrodon - Middle Permian).

Side effect, now there is oxygen everywhere and the sky is blue.
What if there are anaerobic life forms that saw earth and thought “huh. Nothing could survive with that much oxygen.”
This deserves more likes. I think the issue though is that anaerobic life doesn't have efficient enough energy production to support advanced intelligence. Although I guess we don't know enough to just assume that about all anaerobic life.
But planets with tons of oxygen need a constant supply of new O2; it scapes the atmosphere easily. Therefore, something unusual must be producing it (like us, Alien life!)
@@jeffpalmer9326
They could do with no oxygen, or you could do with them having no oxygen? (If you know what I mean)

Oxygen really doesn't escape. It's just too heavy and needs too much energy to get its velocity up high enough.

In Geniesis it says that there was earth and seas and God says let there be light. I believe he’s saying that he is bringing in new light to the dark world and creating new.

Well done. The name Thagomizer (at 24.46) origins from the cartoonist Gary Larson, who coined the name in a cartoon showing the late Simon Thago getting ended.. It was later taken up by people working in the area of these animals, and stuck.
Ahem, Thag Simmons.
I so remember Gary Larsons- his cows and his dogs going to work in their bus wearing their ties; and the two deer standing there chatting, one with a target on his chest... and the other one saying, "Bummer of a birthmark, Carl."
So those genuine and brilliant science nerds took a name from a genuine, brilliant comedy writer/cartoonist's work to create an actual name for an actual brilliant creature from our deep past- kinda incorporating all that together. My head is whelming out of control. That's wonderful!
THANK YOU. I can remember having Dimetrodon lumped in with dinosaur toys I had as a kid, and in retrospect it pisses me off, as one who loves paleontology.
Yes, Dimetrodon mixed in with dinosaurs was inaccurate. But it is still a very cool beastie, and learning about it has been a lot of fun. If it were not included in the 'dino toys' some people might never have known about it.

@@renendarkfire infectious diseases started to become a problem when people began farming and storing large amounts of grain. Rodents started to move into human settlements and farms and began the spread of disease in humans. The problem became a thousand times worse when people moved into towns and cities with many people living close together. This extreme crowding is what caused infectious diseases in humans to take off and spread like wild fire. Instead of taking the not so subtle hint and abandoning their crowded lifestyle, they just kept breeding and getting even more numerous and crowded, and sicker. Then they created inventions to help them cope with the twisted and unnatural lifestyle they have created for themselves. And alas, it continues to this day. Why is it that we have the coronavirus? Because of overpopulation and crowding. And it's proving to be a bit too much even for an advanced 21st century society with all its latest technology.

Essentially, the demand that all of a modern cell form spontaneously, complete in every detail, in a single instantaneous event is ridiculous -- and it is the central claim behind the religious 'special creation' and all of its' disguises. Evolution works incrementally, as anyone who Actually Watched The Video would understand; variations arise, and some of those variations survive better in the environment they are in. Those variants usually leave more offspring; less successful variants leave fewer (or no) offspring. Over time even small variations add up to big changes.
