Illustrations of these extinct fish have always perplexed me, probably because they were always associated with such vague captions along the lines of: some were very strange. This is the first time I've seen such detailed information about them.
Considered the video enjoyed. With the needed information gleaned from fossils with newer equipment. At least we are getting better ideas of what Chondrichthyes may have looked like. Thanks👍🦈🦈🦈👍
I think that the issue with the scientific theory of how the jaw was doesn't work practically. You have to be able to put what you try to eat in your mouth, and not just cut it in half. Your teeths can't point up and down at the same time, like models of this shark's teeths spiral shows, otherwise while biting with those who are pointing up, those who are pointing down will hurt the predator flesh due to the pressure of the bite. Another thing is: there is no place left in the mouth for food to come in, because all the place is taken by the spiral. I could keep going with "scientific evidences" like this all day long. It surprise me that nobody mention the possibility of how the fossil of this creature, especially being made with cartilage, could have been compressed and deformed with the pressure of sands and rocks on it, and a ""simple"" x-ray scan it's maybe not enough to being so sure about how this fish looked. So, like you see, science contradict science, and you have to use your brain, sometimes. If this is the official representation of the Helicoprion, it doesn't mean it's true. Paleontologist are humans, and humans make mistakes. Just look how the spinosaurus models are keep changing because of recent discoverys. All paleontologist don't agree on this version of Helicoprion. So don't be so sure that it looked like that ;) P.S. I apologise for my bad english
Don’t think about it too hard. It’ll make you sad. Another hard one to think about is all the things there were few fossils of to begin with but all those fossils have been destroyed by volcanism or erosion
I was noticing many other youtubers getting in on shark week so I thought I’d contribute… by making a video a week late that isn’t even really about a shark. Enjoy. Also you may have noticed the improved animations in this video which I was able to do due to updating my editing software. This was greatly helped by the kind support from my patrons, if you would like to join the ranks and see this channel improve then you can go to www.patreon.com/MothLightMedia and drop me a dollar.

Squid as pray makes sense to me- Sperm Wales also have a narrow line of only lower jaw teeth. There may have even be a more complex mouth that "rolled" in a little when closing. Like Snake jaws have their upper fangs point slightly forward.
Why does it feel like i see the great dying as a lot more depressing than everyone else makes it out to be when it's brought up? ik this is mostly irrelevant but it's still a *tiny bit* relevant so i thought i'd ask anyways. *my pfp makes it seem like i'd never ask a question this **_deep_** doesn't it*
Can someone explain how all these large sea creatures went extinct in one large event (imo the Flood)......but yet we are told the sea animals we have now have evolved from the extinct ones???
This is exactly the information I wanted after seeing these strange creatures and the questions that they arose. I already feel I understand them more than 99% of the internet. Thank you.
Kode Rex well maybe you should stop making assumptions about people. Bright or not, if you were in front of me now, I guarantee you wouldn’t have spoken to me like that. So what does that make you? A coward? A keyboard warrior?
I gotta say I like how your videos dont bombard me with awkward millennial slang like EONS does. Its just gentle music and a gentle voice so thank you.
So there's a shark with a:
1.)Hammer-head
2.)Shovel-head (Shovelnose Shark)
3.)BuzzSaw-head (Helicoprion) and
4.)HedgeTrimmer-head (sawshark)
Conclusion: Poseidon was busy with gardening.
Don't forget the one with an anvil on its back, Stethacanthus!
And the vacuum cleaner shark(Whale Shark)
Time to add another one: An eagle shark (Aquilolamna)
Also a relative to that saw head was sword mouth under the saw head

Imagine how large waves got in the Panthalassic Ocean.
Ah, so that’s what it is. I just dug one up in Animal Crossing and was wondering about the story behind it.
I got annoyed when Blathers told me it was a "shark tooth pattern". It's a Helicoprion tooth whorl.

Except Chondrichthyes is paraphyletic because Elasmobranchii is more closely related to Euteleostomi than to Holocephali.

So they came up with Megs entire body from a tooth????????

Stop it
Just imagine all the strange creatures back then that never left fossils - or fossils we haven't found yet.
HELICOPRION
That’s true!! Some animals have no bones. Like jellyfish. I wonder of everything we have yet to find
Jungles and rainforests

Great video! What program did you use for your animations?
E.D.G.E thank you, I use a mixture of adobe photoshop and hit film pro
Helicoprion is such a great name.
....sounding all the more menacing considering the complete terror that are.....Prions
National geographic just came out with an article on helicoprion said it could have been up to 40 feet long

I look forward to your video's Hope to see a Tully Monster vid some day!1
I have a theory that I haven't seen. What if when it dies its jaw curls up like that and it was actually straight when living.
interesting
It wouldn't be useful to have that extending out from the lower jaw. Remember, there are no other teeth.
i always had the theory that it would use it like a hook and extend it quickly to catch fish
Well, it's a known theory that it could be like that.
Plot twist: it's really just a normal shark that ate an ammonite.

Fascinating. They had one at a Permian life exhibition in London. They built it very shark-like indeed.
i know its absurd but i like to imagine Helicoprions tooth wheel spinning like a table saw
Great video 😊
I feel like a cross section of the current reconstruction could have been helpful
So...
The Tooth Spiral was just like... backups? So when the teeth fell out it would... roll? uncovering new ones?

*junji ito enters the chat*
Lmao I was just thinking that
"science is objective!" they taught us.
but as an adult and a scientist there's so much guessing and subjectivity involved in all fields of science
If a snail tried to design an electric circular saw made of shark teeth, you'd basically have Helicoprion.

You mean mystery of the helicoprion
Saw shark, Hammerhead shark, and other weird tool looking sharks.
Wait illunsionist worm is flipped??
maybe it swalloed amonites whole?!
When a shark has better teeth than you
its not a shark
sharks having better teeth is not all that shocking
So interesting
A helicoprion
