- Eurypterids are rare in the fossil record overall. But when we find these 400-million-year-old "sea scorpions," we find LOTS of them.

As a native German speaker i was impressed by your correct pronunciation of Lagerstätte..
Me too. And disappointed by him having to use one foreign word and promptly complaining about it.
@@schonlingg.wunderbar2985 I heard German and Latin.
@@schonlingg.wunderbar2985 Same, well kinda. I assume it was a scripted joke and one must admit the translation 'storage place' doesn't full make it justice while still being right. My problem was mostly twofold: simplification of the term and the fact they kept writing a German noun in lowercase...
Really love the vibe of this video compared to the ones where the host are standing.
Yeah!
I was thinking about this today. For contrast, Crash Course has many people sitting down.
There is a production reason, it's easier to film in front of a green screen (and it only has to be bigger than the host, no need for the entire shot to be planned out).
Also not needing to project.
Yeah, but they need to fix the clock though.
It's also just more subdued, it doesn't have the same energy. There are a few moments where Stefan seems to momentarily forget to keep his voice down.
*_I like that he is talking slightly more slowly and a lot more SOFTLY; not so loud as though he was trying to be heard in the back of a large auditorium._*
I like this video a LOT. The background, pacing, and more chilled out tone is great.
the new format is a ginormous win! live set, more relaxed pace so the information is easier to digest... please please please please please please please please please please! keep going in this direction.
Hot take: weird Cambrian creatures are ADORABLE and it's a crime that Eurypterid plushies aren't a thing.
(also first comment!
I appreciate you for having some substance attached to your first comment. You've earned my like.
I found Eurypterid plushies with a single google search. They come in a lot sizes.
I would looooooooove to have a real sized Anomalocaris Plushy that you can hang on your shoulders with its barbed appendiges (obviously made of plushiness).
You can carry it around like a backpack or to your front.
Can of course just place it anywhere, no matter how, I'd believe this to be so perfect.
Nothing more relaxing than the majestic sea scorpion
Check out the plushies made by the Paleontological Research Institute in New York! They have an online store with great plushies. I have the Orthoceras nautiloid!
German "lagern" stands for more than just "store". It also has the meaning 'to lay down' or 'to bed down'. Especially the latter definitely also goes into the term "lagerstätte".
I wanna about to say, a camp site is also a Lagerstätte
A camp site is rather a 'Lagerplatz', 'Zeltplatz' or 'Campingplatz' @@WolfieKr
@@Riflik45 "stätte" of course is a more or less obsolete word. But it is something you might use in a LOTR-like fantasy story.
@@HotelPapa100I wouldn't call it obsolete, it's commonly used in 'Ruhestätte' or 'Raststätte' although its usage is declining I guess.
Do you mean like "ablagerung"(geological deposit) in the second sense?
I think "lagerstätte" is just one of those weird German cases where a different word lost a few letters(the "ab") just to confuse anyone trying to learn the language
I loved the new mood, it’s a solid calming and informative situation
Same!
There is a fantastic PBS: Eons episode (also produced by complexly) about these guys. It’s hosted by Kallie Moore and it’s a wonderful watch :D
Stefan's voice sounds better in that room. They should do all the vids in there from now on.
This chill tone is great. I always love enthusiasm for the content but sometimes I just feel like I’m getting yelled at
I would hesitate to call the pointy bit (known as a "telson") as a stinger since we don't know if it was venomous. Also, if memory serves, the back half of the animal didn't appear to be articulated enough so strike like a scorpion. It does make for a spiffy dig and hide tool.
Yeah the flexibility is not there for them to flex like a scorpion. And while it's probably not *impossible* that some lineage evolved poison, there is currently no direct or indirect evidence for it. Probably the telsons were used much like horseshoe crabs use theirs: to help flip themselves right side up, possibly for some other minor steering uses in the swimming forms.

Loved this video! The background, pacing, and the more relaxed tone really made it stand out!
Gotta say, I love the calm narration of this video.
I had no idea how close I was to missing out on the first Rock Box!
I contemplated for hours because I don't usually spend money on myself but man I'm glad I did. Did not expect a fossil, even if fragmentary but as a Paleo nerd, this has me excited. Rocks are a great snapshot into the past and fossils are entire bits of life caught in this hidden picture we call a rock.
my wife and I had your clock radio in the 70's. It was state-of-the-art back then.
Definitely dig this format 👌 awesome change of scenery 🤘💙💚🤘
The warm lighting and open cabinet are just 👌
A more fitting translation for lagerstätte in this context would be something like (mineral) deposit grounds also for burrowed archeological and/or valuable objects.
Therefore we do not undersell it with that word :)
I like the live set! Prefer it to the green screen background 🙂
I like a lot of information is a short amount of time. No useless filler.
As a German fossil and mineral fan I'm so sad that I can't subscribe to the box 🤧 but it's such a cool idea and this video format is really nice!
I really like this lowkey setting Stefan is in.
Had to Watch it twice cause damn that background scene you guys made looks nice.
Cool set/format!
i love this format, seems chill
I like this background a whole lot more than the normal green screen. The whole video was a lot softer and less harsh on the sense.
Oh, the background is a wild change… I kinda love it. 👍
Love the new set!
very nice production!
I appreciate tha calm styli of this video. I am barely accustomed to listening to something loke this anymore, but I don't think I missed more than usual and it was pleasant. (Having ADHD, I am hard to capture, but already overwhelmed enough most of the time. I guess, the calmness was unusual enough to be interesting. 😄)
"Let me just get more comfortable," she said, slipping out of her exoskeleton.
The set looks great. It adds a nice vibe to the video.
1:03 WHOA!!!
This is perfect my plan is to collect a lot of rocks from you to use in an aquarium.
Omg I've been trying so hard to get one! This is very exciting. Thanks for opening them up again. Glad I didn't wait!
My Dearest Eurypterid,
In the vast depths of the ancient sea, my heart scuttles toward you with a love as deep as the ocean floor. From the tips of my articulated limbs to the edges of my fossilized exoskeleton, every part of me yearns for the companionship only you can provide.
Your compound eyes, like glistening gemstones, capture the essence of the marine world around us. In the soft currents of affection, I find solace as our carapaces entwine in a dance as old as time itself. Oh, how your telson traces the currents, leaving a trail of love in its wake.
As we traverse the ocean floor together, hand in cheliped, our antennae entangled, I feel a connection as ancient as the Silurian seas. Your presence is my sanctuary, and our love is an ammonite, enduring through the epochs of existence.
Even in the darkest abyss, your bioluminescence guides me. The luminescent glow of our love pierces the eternal night of the Cambrian, revealing the beauty that lies in the depths of our entwined souls.
My dearest, let us continue our journey through the primordial seas, where the currents of time cannot erode the love etched into our chitinous hearts. With every molt, our bond strengthens, and our love remains fossilized in the annals of prehistoric passion.
Yours forever,
Eurydia
I love eurypterids!!! They're so interesting, one of the coolest arthropods to ever exist
until they knock you out while your swimming in ark and you drown D=
That’s so cool. Thank you. 🙏💖
i must be hungry cause all i can think about during this video is how tasty some eurypterid tail with some garlic butter would be
I love this new delivery. Very professional and grounded.
Because their former format was not professional?
@@IzzyTheEditor Touché, depends on where you are measuring professionalism from. Jading as I age, the bubbly delivery on a greenscreen backdrop is tiresome, that's all.
love the new set!
lovely content as always too
Loving this new format! The hosts can sit down finally!
Loving the new presentation.
I feel like the title is simultaneously accurate and describes all fossils...
Impressive German pronunciation of Lagerstätte! Got the umlaut and the S right. (lah-ga-shtet-a)
Such amazing creatures!
Love the new format, please tidy your filing cabinet 😂
Love the new settings 😊
I love the set for this video! Really nice looking and cozy compared to the green screen. 😊
I still love my bitty orthoceras. It’s so cute! And shiny
After a cold NNN get ready for Mass Mate March
Love the background
I love horseshoe crabs...they are fascinating.
Decent over all, no stingers on eurypterids the proper term is Telson. Eurypterid assemblages (where eurypterids mated and molted) we’re not beaches but rather sheltered bodies of water. For example salt hoppers are often found in these assemblages which indicates hypersaline conditions that there predators couldn’t tolerate. Also the Bertie Group is the preferred term for the “Bertie Formation”. The fiddlers green is its own formation, the top member are the “eurypterid beds” known as the Phelps waterlime.
wow, I REALLY like how the new audio sounds
Nice Set.
Yooo those fossils rock!
Guess the earth really DID move for the eurypterids! 😅
Hi Stefan!
Who knew paleontology could be so... relaxing?
Wonderful creatures !
Very different chillaxed SciShow format... I can deal with it.
Every time we try to sign up, it's sold out. Very cool that folks are so excited about geology tbough
Your pronunciation of Lagerstätte is very good.
OY! The horseshoe crab is anything but humble! It’s a marvel! Not only is it a living fossil, their blood is incredibly valuable for the medical professions as it is unique as a test material for specific bacteria!
Thats a great pronounciation of the word lagerstatte, im pleasantly surprised!
One of my scishow lecturers became a mad scientist in the thumbnail!😂❤
I’m GEEKING OUT over this month’s box!! Always here for an extremely old invertebrate
Shrimp with Anchor Arms
Got my fossil! What a great gift for myself. :-)
A sea scorpion was found in my hometown of Decorah, Iowa.
On the aesthetics of the presentation: this setting really darkens the timbre of your voice and maybe also slows the pace just a bit, both of which I find agreeable. Ah, I'm just repeating what @colinlong7864 said :)
Why am I reminded of Futurama S2E05 "Why Must I Be a Crustacean in Love?"
Despite my invertebrate paleontology professor's best attempts, my favorite fossil remains eurypterids and not conodonts to this day.
Conodonts are so valuable for science, but so boring to me too. Haha.
Nice office
Stefan has gone all ASMR on us
Enjoying the new set and relaxed tone!
I like the new milieu.
I have such a crush on him❤❤❤❤
i recently found out i love the eurypterids theyre my home state of new yorks fossil and theyre so cool! ive been trying to do research on places where i could find these fossils, but theres not a lot out there
Look around the herkimer area, south of Ilion in particular I’ve found dozens of specimens in a road cut. I also have access to a private quarry over there and I’m friends with the owner.
Where did Stephen get a desk?! Sit-down SciShow? IDK how I feel about this lol. ;P
cool!
Go Go Sci Show!
New format is definitely better.
Rare, that we find by the thousands 👍
nice background
Im guessing the third set is SOLD OUT, since I just checked and it said SOLD OUT. But $30? Seems a bit high.
I loved that animation. Freaked the crap out of my wife.
4:20 Oh look its an Elephant... oh wait
Common Decent Podcast just made an episode on these it was great
0:18 Giggity.
I know this cenery!!! S2
Thats actually so cute; I can envision a bunch of mature, fertile mommies-to-be hanging out by the beach, the guys arrive, they do their little mating dances to find suitable partners and shed their exoskeletons, giving easier and less painful access to fleshy undersides to mate, and then the mommas stay behind for a few months to lay their eggs, nest, and see the babies grow until theyre independent enough before leaving the spawning grounds.
And perhaps the itty bitty tiny ones arent a different species, just very young.
I think they turned into lobsters
While not as cool as those, I have a 4 inch long 2 inch girth orthocone Cephalopod sticking up out of the dirt where I live in Northern Kentucky. Until then, all I've ever found were coral and brachiopod fossils, which are absolutely everywhere here.
I mean carrot kraken are cool too
but isn't the earth only 6000 years old in Kentucky? 🤪
@@thorium222 You're right. What the hell did I find?
If they are rare,by definition, they aren't available by the thousands.
Try to buy 1,000 perfect, complete eurypterids.
eurypterids are cool
Silurian 443-419 mya 2:40
Bro I thought that was Tuco Salamanca in the thumbnail.
Would they taste like shrimp? I like shrimp.
Admit it...
You've made this episode just to Lagerstatte several times.
