Nice videos, but as a biologist, I have a couple of comments: Chordates name does not come from the nerve, but from a notochord - the structure made from the connective tissue that runs through their body. The nerves run above this structure and the digestive system below. The remnants of notochord in humans are spinal disks. Nerves are derived from ectoderm, while notochord from mesoderm. Also, you should give species binomial names according to the standard - where the genus name is written starting with a capital letter, but then the species name is not capitalized so it would be Paradoxides davidis not Paradoxides Davidis.

"What was the earth like 500 million years ago?" Like riding a bicycle. Except the seat is on fire and the bike is on fire and the ground is on fire and everything is on fire because it's hell.
Oh yeah, life in the ocean was much more comfortable-too comfortable indeed, as it was explained in the film! But there is a living fossil species that changed little since the Triassic when they first appeared, called Notostraca Triops, or commonly "tadpole shrimp" (they're in fact neither). They live in extremely arid areas, in temporary seasonal pools, and lay eggs that can dry up so hardily that they persist in soil for decades and even pass through mammals and birds undigested. When there's enough rainfall to form pools, they soak up and hatch, grow into adults in a matter of days and reproduce before the pool dries up. Life, once started, finds a way...
Trilobites are the most amazing creatures to ever exist, existing 270 million years or so, surviving multiple extinction events. They're what got me into this subject in the first place.
@@Justmonika6969 yes I know it sounds crazy but even scientists are writing papers pointing out there is no possibility that collagen could last millions of years.

Great book. I picked it up in a charity shop, didn't know anything about it. I was, at the time, keeping a Regal Jumping Spider as a "pet". Made me look at her in a different sort of a way :)
@Anton-tf9iw By compulsory do you mean scientifically factual? And by CO2 phobia do you mean reasonable concern over climate change and the 6th great mass extinction on Earth?
When I was a child I was given a beautiful fossil of a trilobite. When told of their extinction, I refused to believe they were gone. Spent many a summer searching field and stream trying to find proof of their continued existence. Didn't really give up until I was about 12.
The Pre-Cambrian and Cambrian periods are those that fascinate me the most. So much is shrouded in mystery, and yet we can still make good guesses to what happened and how the world looked. Stuff of dreams for me 🙂
And I'm going to listen to this gloriousness while I go for a weekend walk. And then watch again for the visuals, and then listen again at sleepytime. The more views, the better.
You guys need to get a sewer system. Your current thing is simply gross. Don't think it would be even a little bit legal where I am, across the Atlantic. How come America won't spend on infrastructure?
The last four years have been trying times, both for myself and for humanity as a whole. Covid, the ongoing wars, and the continuing climate crisis have taught us of the hubris of the scientific community and those who govern our societies. On a more personal note, I have had to 'lock down' due to health issues. My continuing problems with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were exacerbated by cancer in my chest. Throughout this period, I have had the joy of watching and listening to this and the other two channels by these amazing creators. These videos are the very definition of Edutainment. Thank you to all involved in the researching and producing of these works of art. Also, thank you to my co-commentors (sic) for your well moderated comments and praise 🙏
I subscribe to a number of TH-cam channels on a variety of topics, but it's so nice when autoplay brings me to this one. Just a calm, serene presence, a respite from all the craziness of current events. Thanks for your high quality content. 💗
Thank you guys heaps for improving on the audio mixing from the last video. Much less distracting this time around. I am looking forward to the next post on History of the Universe and this one. Keep up with the good work
I must have watched (and listened) to this channel a dozen times already. At the time of writing this comment, I have just done watch number three of this episode. It's easily one of the best pieces of edutainment ever 🙏
Those fast radio bursts remind me of the discovery and exploration of quasars: "At first, astronomers had no idea what they were seeing." - IMHO that is the beauty of science.
These works are amazing! So much better than anything on mainstream TV. In fact, the last great series (on terrestrial TV) of this type was Aubrey Manning's Earth Story, over a quarter of a century ago!
Hi Pete and friends, just wanted to chime in and say how much I love the channel. Truly one of my favorite channels to escape to, learn, and be entertained all at the same time.
Great stuff as always. I personally don’t care for the obligatory “looming climate change catastrophe” bit but that doesn’t change my opinion about how wonderful this series is and the others. I always look forward to them.
"Finally, the helicoplacoids have the appearance of a towel wrung out to dry, if that towel happened to be made of rigid armor" In other words, not a very good towel, is it?
Finally a new episode! I have watched all 28 former episodes (this is No. 29) - they are the best towards Earth's history I have ever found. Please continue this series through the periods of Earth's history until (and including) the Kainozoic. This series is such a treasure of knowledge, it should be on the curriculum of schools or even universities.
Thank you guys for yet another interesting video! I told my wife about the urine problem in New England, and her facial expression was hilarious. God be with you out there, everybody. ✝️ :)
I don't understand why there was a positive carbon isotope excursion in limestone during the SPICE event? If limestone is the dead carcasses of foraminifera why would those foraminifera have taken up more C13 than normal? Pete, David, and Leila, You're the best! How your brain decided to weave Cape Code and the SPICE event together is singularly astounding! Who thinks of stuff like that? Your videos are packed with such temporally separated comparisons. I love it.
imo change in ocean chemistry, possibly due to volcanic activity or other geological processes can influence the carbon isotopic ratios available for foraminifera.
I just love your work. So great to have new material to enjoy! Btw, my all time favorite has been The Boring Billion. Thank you for being uniquely awesome!
This is truly an amazing world we live in and I still can’t get it in my head how old it is and at one point why did the Dinosaurs live here and no humans 🫣🫢🧐😳👊🏻❤️
The story of our earth is a beautiful and violent yet also peaceful story, every time something happens, the cosmic hammer of nature comes swinging to change it again… Also fun fact: there’s over 25,000 species of trilobites so far That We Know Of…

Great TH-cam Channel as well as Video with great analysis, voice, animation & feelings of reality. We are always with you plz upload videos on regular basis, you waited us long. Thank You Very Much 😊
I've loved your videos since I first saw them. You've talked all about animals and the Earth. Would you please do a video/videos about plants in the Earth's history. Ie. the eras of gymnosperms, angiosperms etc, what effect they've had on animals and vice/versa. Or "living fossils". Something of the sort relating to plants.
Again, asking for a way to support you besides clicking ad links and such! If you get a Patreon or something with ad-free videos, I'd subscribe in a heartbeat! Thank you so much for the work you do: these videos, these channels, are hands down my favorite on TH-cam!
Nice lead in to the sponsor 😉 it's always pleasant to get a joke with the pitch. Fantastic video as usual, I watch them all many times and my kids like them too. We listen to them before bed It's so nice to rest and learn together at the end of the day 🥰
Fascinating. Despite my interest in Biology & Geology going back decades, there seems always something new to learn. Thank you, once again, for not dumbing-down the content matter in the quest to keep it entertaining.
A fascinating documentary on this most interesting time in the early history of complex life. This is such a brilliant channel, with great topics that are covered in detail yet are presented in a highly engaging manner.

Just like a fast radio burst, this channel's videos are worth waiting for. . . I love this channel! My joy is boundless. There IS a Troll Research Station!
I have to say that your videos are the absolute best in this subject and your way of narrating them is outstanding. Many other channels that started out like you are now clickbait trash but you persist, like a black hole forever pulling in the viewers over the event horizon.
Got to admit, I’d love that. Of all creatures that have ever existed on Earth, my favourite is the Trilobites, with Hallucigenia coming a close second.
I absolutely Love these videos about earths geologic history 😊👍 Even more then the history of the univers videos of yours, tho I realy enjoy those too. Such a facinating existential subject.

Those fast radio bursts remind me of the discovery and exploration of quasars: "At first, astronomers had no idea what they were seeing." - IMHO that is the beauty of science.
These works are amazing! So much better than anything on mainstream TV. In fact, the last great series (on terrestrial TV) of this type was Aubrey Manning's Earth Story, over a quarter of a century ago!
this video is so inspiring and scientifically well- founded! Thanks for having made it
Hi Pete and friends, just wanted to chime in and say how much I love the channel. Truly one of my favorite channels to escape to, learn, and be entertained all at the same time.
Great stuff as always. I personally don’t care for the obligatory “looming climate change catastrophe” bit but that doesn’t change my opinion about how wonderful this series is and the others. I always look forward to them.
Can't wait for the Permian video.
A gem of an episode, one to watch more than once!
"Finally, the helicoplacoids have the appearance of a towel wrung out to dry, if that towel happened to be made of rigid armor"
In other words, not a very good towel, is it?
Finally a new episode! I have watched all 28 former episodes (this is No. 29) - they are the best towards Earth's history I have ever found. Please continue this series through the periods of Earth's history until (and including) the Kainozoic. This series is such a treasure of knowledge, it should be on the curriculum of schools or even universities.
More from this channel, please!
At last ! I cannot thank you enough for this series, it is clearly my favorite from all those you do
Brazilian geologist here. Thanks!
It is a masterpiece!
These are just the best videos of their kind.
This is such a great channel, peaceful and informative. You really take me on a journey through the Earths story
Just when I thought that you could do no better, you bring out a new video and raise the bar ever higher. Well done!
Thank you guys for yet another interesting video! I told my wife about the urine problem in New England, and her facial expression was hilarious.
God be with you out there, everybody. ✝️ :)
crazy to think that something as complex and world breaking as eyes were ubiquitous as soon as complex life enters the fossil record
I don't understand why there was a positive carbon isotope excursion in limestone during the SPICE event? If limestone is the dead carcasses of foraminifera why would those foraminifera have taken up more C13 than normal?
Pete, David, and Leila, You're the best! How your brain decided to weave Cape Code and the SPICE event together is singularly astounding! Who thinks of stuff like that? Your videos are packed with such temporally separated comparisons. I love it.
imo change in ocean chemistry, possibly due to volcanic activity or other geological processes can influence the carbon isotopic ratios available for foraminifera.
Thank you. Sounds reasonable.
It always makes my day when one of these videos comes out.
I just love your work. So great to have new material to enjoy! Btw, my all time favorite has been The Boring Billion. Thank you for being uniquely awesome!
This is truly an amazing world we live in and I still can’t get it in my head how old it is and at one point why did the Dinosaurs live here and no humans 🫣🫢🧐😳👊🏻❤️
The story of our earth is a beautiful and violent yet also peaceful story, every time something happens, the cosmic hammer of nature comes swinging to change it again…
Also fun fact: there’s over 25,000 species of trilobites so far That We Know Of…
I use my tablet as my alarm so in the morning when it tells me to get my butt outta bed i always see the new notifications , the drawback is i saw yours and it'll be at least twelve hours before I'll get to sit back and enjoy it ! Thanks guys !
I think this channel is my favorite, absolutely great videos every time!
Great TH-cam Channel as well as Video with great analysis, voice, animation & feelings of reality. We are always with you plz upload videos on regular basis, you waited us long. Thank You Very Much 😊
Leila Battison is the best writer on this channel by far!! I hope she writes more for hotu!!
Many thanks, Leila! Once again, so superb. And all without much mention of the Burgess Shale or "Wonderful Life."
I've loved your videos since I first saw them. You've talked all about animals and the Earth. Would you please do a video/videos about plants in the Earth's history. Ie. the eras of gymnosperms, angiosperms etc, what effect they've had on animals and vice/versa. Or "living fossils". Something of the sort relating to plants.
This, Universe, and Humankind help bring me peace. Thank you 🙏🏻
Again, asking for a way to support you besides clicking ad links and such! If you get a Patreon or something with ad-free videos, I'd subscribe in a heartbeat! Thank you so much for the work you do: these videos, these channels, are hands down my favorite on TH-cam!
Why do you want ad free videos? Would you watch or just listen to them?
@@olivergilpin I hate ads, with a passion and I do both.
One of the best channels out there. Keep up the incredible work, good science man
Nice lead in to the sponsor 😉 it's always pleasant to get a joke with the pitch. Fantastic video as usual, I watch them all many times and my kids like them too. We listen to them before bed
It's so nice to rest and learn together at the end of the day 🥰
Excellent content-not that unusual these days, still much appreciated.
Adept narration-much rarer. Even more appreciated.
Fascinating. Despite my interest in Biology & Geology going back decades, there seems always something new to learn. Thank you, once again, for not dumbing-down the content matter in the quest to keep it entertaining.
A fascinating documentary on this most interesting time in the early history of complex life. This is such a brilliant channel, with great topics that are covered in detail yet are presented in a highly engaging manner.
Thank god i discovered this channel!
7:30 The man in the middle of the photo is missing his right hand.
I think he is John Wesley Powell. Look him up on Wikipedia... he has a very interesting life. He has many things named after him like Lake Powell.
@@beachbum200009 I used to go houseboating on lake Powell, back before it developed it's infamous bathtub ring. The side canyons are a dream to explore. But the wind can get a bit nasty on the lake. As a kid I remember one storm blew us out of the cove we had picked for the night.
Another remarkable episode amongst many others in your various series. Quenches a thirst for knowledge. Well done.
Thanks again for one of the best quality content on You-Tube.
Bedtime sorted 😴. Thanks in advance for another enjoyable and thought-provoking video.
See you in half a billion. ❤
Jokes aside, I love his content.
I sleep to it almost every night.
Fantastic as always. Thanks
Just like a fast radio burst, this channel's videos are worth waiting for. . . I love this channel! My joy is boundless. There IS a Troll Research Station!
Totally worth the 5 month wait since the last instalment of this incredible series... quality > quantity.
Amazing. Id watch tv if it was of this quality
When I hear there is no sewing system in the USA, I'm amazed! 😱
What kind of coutry is this?
Brilliant, as usual; thank you.
Have watched this thrice over now; even among your extraordinary channels History of Earth is something else
Excellant audio level and mic work.
I have to say that your videos are the absolute best in this subject and your way of narrating them is outstanding. Many other channels that started out like you are now clickbait trash but you persist, like a black hole forever pulling in the viewers over the event horizon.
Just finished watching!
It's always a great day for some history!
This was exceptional and I learned so much! Thank you!
Thought there were no more coming. Very happy to see more👍
Superb script Leila! A fantastic video.
It's not that 'life is lazy' and won't expend energy, it that in natural selection every tiny advantage helps survival.
Diversity of units would earn you a thumbs up.
Oh yeah! Feel like I've waited soooo long for this. Awesomeness
Excellent, another video I'll put on over and over as I go to sleep and never make it to the end of.
Superb narration and scientific analysis.
Imagine being the poor bastard who goes back in time to the cambrian just to see the life there for themself, only to realize, "Oops! All trilobites."
Got to admit, I’d love that.
Of all creatures that have ever existed on Earth, my favourite is the Trilobites, with Hallucigenia coming a close second.
I absolutely Love these videos about earths geologic history 😊👍 Even more then the history of the univers videos of yours, tho I realy enjoy those too.
Such a facinating existential subject.
Another fantastic video!
Just a day before this was released I was watching the shrooms one thinking "man, I wonder when Pete will drop another HotE masterpiece". I am astounded my wish came much earlier than I thought!
Well technically this is David. Pete's doing History Time.
This was really informative and interesting. Thanks for loading.
