What i find absolutely amazing is that sir David is still doing documentaries.
You could say he’s a bit of a dinosaur in the field of documentaries. Sorry.
...why!? It's his life, always has been...he probably feels a little lost in himself when he isn't doing what his entire life has been built around.
He started making documentaries when my nan was 9 and she turns 80 next year. Incredible longevity.
Don't jinx it.
He was a huge part of my childhood. I'll cry when he's gone
You know what I like about Sir David Attenborough the most? The way he narrates isn't just narration, he truly adores what hes explaining to us.
Amazing how you can sound when you actually love what you do.
It's not just that he loves what he is doing, it's also that he understands the information that he is imparting.
He's not just reading a script.
I heard he does most of it on the toilet.
Yes
Not here for likes, to be honest I couldn't give a crap what any of you say, here for acknowledging an icon of British society. Especially the old "blue planet" DVD case I've still got. Anyway, hope your all not analysing my comment to come back with some whitty comment. Have a good day.
It was an honour to have worked on this. The entire crew knew this was a historic find as it was unfolding. A true privilege to witness Robert’s passion!
Oxygen quickly erodes remarkably preserved organic samples so I was worried being exposed to the elements would deteriorate it. A nice find.
Did you guys extract tissue samples and any other samples to be sent to facilities like South Korea where they are currently trying to clone a mammoth? It's a long shot, but even one cell that is intact with DNA samples would be gold.
why cameraman is at the perfect moment like he is already expecting a find?
@@impulsiveurge5837 They problably used 3 dimensional scanning technology to map the underground before digging up if I had to guess but I wasn't there so I don't know.
once you understand that the first ever identifiable “dinosaur” fossil was found AFTER 1842 when Richard Owens came up with the theory of what these things looked like, based on huge bones/fossils people have been finding since the 1600 to present day. Yet before he came up with the theory no one ever found a full enough fossil to identify it as a “giant lizard” it was only AFTER he came up with the theory of dinosaurs did *paleontologists* and *scentists* started finding large enough fossils that everyone could see what these creatures actually looked like. To this day we still find fossils and large bones but only paleontologists and scientist actually find the full fossils to where you can put together and see them as these giant lizards.
This doesn’t prove or disprove dinosaurs, but you should be skeptical knowing this at the least.
*the theory came before the discovery*
@@luminatrixfanfiction It's a fossil, so everything has been replaced with inorganic minerals/stone
I can only imagine the joy and excitement a paleontologist must be feeling finding something like this!
This has been their fantasy for over a century. It's the paleologist equivalent of NASA finding Planet Nine.
@@selinaarcher184 Nope.
this can be easily fabricated if there is any propaganda value to it
but if these antropologists are well known its probably legit
It’s a hoax. Asteroids don’t exist!!!!
Fun fact: David Attenborough's brother was Richard Attenborough, the actor for John Hammond from Jurassic Park.
as a kid o felt they were without knowing it
No way
Wow, I had to look that up. Amazing
I'm absolutely speachless
Leslie Nielson the actor's brother was Roger Nielson, Canadian politician.
David was like a odd father to me growing up. I couldn't get enough of all the wild documentary shows on TV. He taught me about the world I'd never see in person. Helped me get away and live for awhile in other countries, in my mind. I wanted to document every horse breed in the world one day. But life for a ordinary child, that never came about. I did however spend half my life working with animals from pet stores, kennels, veterinarian hospitals (forever) to a local zoo in the medical wing. And I did get to dabble in the horse world, with my own beautiful steed. I'm 50 now. And I wish to ever thank him for my broad knowledge of the animal kingdom and love for nature.
Send him a letter, before it's too late. I'm sure he'll enjoy hearing about the influence his work had on your life.
@@b.a.erlebacher1139 Sounds lovely to do! Everyone should too! I see I wasn't the only one "growing up" with him as a source for learning
I am lucky enough to be old enough to remember Marlin Perkins hosting Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom as well as Sir David's documentaries. He was just as entertaining and enthusiastic as Sir David.
@@davidroberts7808 omg yeah your right. I am 51 so I remember too. And Cousteau.
@@ashlingofAsh7580 WOW if THAT didn't bring back a flood of memories..... I always wanted to become a marine biologist because of Jacques Cousteau and growing up in Florida. Yes How could I forget the fantastic Frenchman?
This is the Tanis site, one of the most important paleontology sites ever found. It was discovered a few years ago and one amazing fossil after another has come out of it. The dating to the day of the impact is based on the presence of tektites (tiny glass spheres) formed by the impact being found clogging the gills of fish at the site. Ground waves from the impact triggered a seiche which sent an immense wave far up a river valley, carrying all before it. The battered remains of marine, fresh water and land plants and animals were buried in mud as the wave receded, and the fine sediment preserved amazing detail.
This seems like a completely fascinating place to do digs! Wow.
Thank you for that information.
Which is located.....................................where???
@@thedwightguy
In one of the Dakotas...
There's even fragments of _Chicxulub itself._ Truly one of the most important sites in Earth's history.
This is exactly how I imagined being an archeologist back when I was a kid lol
Paleontologist

@@anthonyontv Not to mention that his hypothesis about them being giant lizards turned out wrong. Basically almost everything about his descriptions of the creatures was wrong, what retained was the name.
Phylogenetically they are as far from lizards as we are from them.
Maybe next time more reading and less cooking up nefarious plots in your head.
@@buragi5441 that’s a stretch, he didn’t classify them as a species of lizard, he identified what they look like by comparing them to something like a “giant lizard like creature” and if you don’t think dinosaurs look like giant lizards with there scales, hands, teeth, and tails than your in denial my friend.
David Attenborough is a living legend, i wish him more long life and health
Honestly so trippy seeing with your own eyes the scales of a dinosaur mind blowing
I'd lick it.

The day we lose Sir Attenborough will be one of the saddest days in memory for me. I'll never get enough of this man. Never.
Sir David is my modern day hero. A life devoted to investigating all life in each of the kingdoms on earth, and then teaching us mere mortals with his docos, I truly believe he deserves a peerage and should take the title: "Lord of all"!! He is one of the very few people of modern times to have visited every country, and both every natural climatic region and environment on earth - and yet for all that, he still cannot drive a car!! 👍
Yeah he's 95, atleast he'll get to say he lived a happy and full life
He could recite the entire Delux paint range in alphabetical order and I'd still be enthralled
Please don't commit suicide you have so much to live for.
@@justicedemocrat9357 He didnt say he was going to?
Sir David's presence in a documentary almost immediately adds a dash of class and authenticity to the doccie.
Knife guy is the first archaeologist I see who is actually dressed like Indiana Jones =)
Nah, there were others in the video with same clothes - The hat is for blocking sun, and the brownish clothes to blend better with the dirt.
Probably autism
I thought that too.
*paleontologist
@@primarytrainer1 Your correct but he still looks like indiana.
Having done a dinosaur dig before and being absolutely chuffed after finding some teeth, plants and shells, I can guarantee that this palaeontologist would be riding this high his entire life. Super exciting stuff!
I once found human remains in my back yard when I was gardening. Turns out the house I bought belonged to a murderer once.

@@chucknutly3290 Hey that's really cool. not like you had anything to do with it... right?
@@michaelbecker5995 No but we're in the process of knocking down a few of the non load bearing walls and redecorating and let's just say I'm thinking about moving out and selling the place soon. I won't let anyone in the basement without me and I don't ever go in there alone anymore.
@@TerribleLizards Yes it was. It was horrible. Luckily we don't have any kids or anything. We were going to settle down here but with everything that's happened I don't think it's an option at all. Honestly we're trying to get rid of the place but before that happens we've got to make sure nothing was left behind if you can understand what I'm getting at. We're literally replacing and refitting everything. Then we're selling and getting out of here. Honestly I inherited this place. That's why it's hard to talk about. It belonged to my great grandfather, I never knew him but I don't think I'd like to either. We don't know if it was him or not for sure, it could have even been his father. Either way my old family home is cursed and I have nightmares of me burning it to the ground with myself inside it. We need to get away from here. We must get out.
This was unbelievable, never thought we’d see a dinosaur so perfectly preserved
....the only part that's truly unbelievable is that this Leg its 65 Million Years Old...
Thescelosaurus (Wonderful lizard)
Mass: 100 - 300 kg
Lived: 83.5 million years ago - 66 million years ago (Campanian - Maastrichtian)
Length: 2.5 - 4.5 m (Estimated)
Thescelosaurus were smaller than what you claimed it to be
@@loadeddiaper4216 prob copy pasted from somewhere? XD
@@Keigo_88 yea maybe
@@loadeddiaper4216 lol
@@Keigo_88 because there is no way that dino weighs like 300 kg
As astounding as this discovery is, I’m wondering how extensive the fossil deposit is and whether there are other similarly marvelous discoveries to come. I do hope the BBC guys, and others, are actively documenting this unique dig.
This site's pretty well known in paleontological circles the levels of preservation there is unlike any Lagerstätte site and the fact it seems to be of the hours after impact make it that much more significant.
Chances are at this particular fossil site they will be probably digging through the area for decades to come I was speechless and almost lost my breath when I saw the scales and flesh still intact on the fossil I've never seen that before in my entire 26 years on this planet on a dinosaur bone it's amazing even just seeing it through this video on TH-cam I can only imagine how it must be seeing it in real life being the first person to touch it in 65 million years at least! Astonishing.. what's even more peculiar to be is that you can tell how birds are relatives of dinosaurs you can tell that the scales on dinosaurs closely resembled to what we see on birds like if you look at a chicken's foot you can see the scales on their feet almost look identical it's so amazing to me LOL I guess that's because I'm a nerd but let's be honest anyone who would be able to see a discovery like this in person would be blown away as well!…

Tanis has fantastic preservation. Published in the same paper as the Thescalosaurus leg discovery, an azdarchid pterosaur embryo still in the egg pose was found alongside a massive feather that could have fit the ulna pit of a Dakotaraptor or Anzu !!

David Attenborough is a treasure of Great Britain, what a voice. I wish he could read to me everyday.
In the next video: Paleontologist: “Look at this amazing foot fossil, it belongs to an upright walking creature, and is clearly millions of years old!” Sir David: “Let go of my foot, you idiot.”
🤣🤣🤣
I knew about this fossil bed before watching, but the discoveries made here are absolutely incredible.
Were the other finds at this site maybe much smaller fragments rather than a whole limb thus didn't make world news? I don't see major news and saw a thumbnail photo of this same leg with another video and thought it was click bait and never clicked on it ha! Really though it's sad how much falsity there is with YT videos created to only gather mega clicks. I'm excited to see more info about this find, like a documentary. It's great now with spring, summer, and fall ahead to find more here.
@@mwj5368 there's a full documentary called the last day of the dinosaurs
@@mwj5368 why they not metercliously and perfectly fine comb picking with the top experts and finding whole T rex heads and triceratops corpses.. that ratio of four finds by this one guy means this place is LOADED if true... but what... i dont even know whats real anymore in 2022
@@sa.8208 Hi Flightless Lord! So nice of you to take the time with me! It's sad that major funding and with sudden weather extremes happening that they don't move forward with this on a major scale, but like you say, meanwhile society as we know it crumbles as so much corruption and wars perpetuate. I suppose they approach everyone they can for funding as it always seems Paleontologists, Archaeologists... struggle so for it. I'm only amateur, but are these remains as it appears, almost as soft as butter? That's what it seems to be as they pluck away the soft earth to what appears as almost the same soft earth as the fossils. Such exciting times in the sciences, but also such dire times. I look forward to following your link! Thanks! If you don't have time to reply I fully understand!
@@sa.8208 Because it’s made up, they come to conclusions that are just figments of their imagination. Think to yourself why have they only found just the “leg” of this animal? where are the bones? Why only skin imposed on the mud? How do we know it’s “millions” of years old?
It’s easy to cut out a shape of a leg in dirt and pretend it’s some sort of prehistoric species that for the first time they’ve discovered its skin that somehow survived hundreds of millions of years. It’s a myth.
David Attenborough is just straight amazing and it's his voice that pulls you in! Spot on Mr David
I wonder what the official peer review of this leg will conclude?
Still, and entire leg, with scales and muscles preserved. Amazing!
preserved muscles ? after 65M years...is this an april fool's joke ?
@@kwanchan6745 Cmon' you probably get what he means. The shape is preserved, and of course all tissue is replaced by minerals and rock. Same as 'preserved' dinosaur skin, feathers, bones , pigments and organs.
@@mitkoogrozev your point is the one I was trying to make...the film shows scales surrounded by clay...that isn't the normal "context" in which you find fossils...the original animal following fossilisation/mineralisation is almost indistinguishable from the fossilised sediment that accumulated around it...its the same rock...so this whole video looks fake
When I saw this documentary a short time ago, I had to check the date of broadcast, to make sure it wasn't the first of April. More seriously, I also am waiting for the peer reviews to come through, though this team has form in preferring the media for announcements. I really, really hope these are genuine finds and even that some of the senationalist speculation can be backed up. This seems to be the attitude of the scientific community, so we shall see.
@@susanbooth6793 its seriously fake...when was the last time a fossilised dino was surrounded by clay ? fossilisation makes the creature almost indistinguishable from the rock itself...the only difference is a slight change in the constituent minerals forming the rock facsimile of the original dinosaur, resulting in a subtle difference in colour of the rock
Him declaring "It does look just like a drumstick" after making such a monumental find got me
When he said "We're seeing it for the first time in 66 millions years" I instantly got chills. Wow.
So did I.....but I was also grinning like an idiot the whole way through it!! 😄
Incredibly exciting!

Left all of his info at the Ranger Station and NEVER heard a word from them. Now, my wife and l live out here and my hope is to try to locate it.
This two part Nova about the last day of the dinosaurs was one of the most exciting, fascinating things I've ever seen. I was riveted, they totally outdid themselves with this one.
How excited John Hammond (Jurassic Park) would have been also. That part, of course, played by David Attenborough, the elder brother of Richard. Sadly, he passed on at age 90 in 2014.

Things like that happen once in a lifetime, or not even once. For an average archaeologist it ain't nearly as exciting as you might expect from watching this video

@@PavltheRobot They're paleontologist not archaeologists, which is always a more intense endeavour. Besides anyway go on the right beach with the right means, and there are fossils there. This is just a special case where a specific event is being looked for, but even so there are many missing links and yet to be found species and sub species of prehistoric fauna and flora.
Oh it's definitely a good living. These things sell for millions in the black market. You'll be surprised how many well preserved dinosaur fossils have never seen the public light and are just laying on a rich mafia boss living room in a yacht or a house

Yet before he came up with the theory no one ever found a full enough fossil to identify it as a “giant lizard” it was only AFTER he came up with the theory of dinosaurs did *paleontologists* and *scentists* started finding large enough fossils that everyone could see what these creatures actually looked like. To this day we still find fossils and large bones but only paleontologists and scientist actually find the full fossils to where you can put together and see them as these giant lizards.
This doesn’t prove or disprove dinosaurs, but you should be skeptical knowing this at the least.
*the theory came before the discovery*
No
I always enjoy Sir David's documentaries who will carry his torch when he is gone? A champion of our world.
Someone could just turn a light on
Imagine an advanced Dino species making a documentary discovering humans after we destroy each other with nukes.
Dad's joke by BBC: the paleontologist was absolutely blown away when he found a dinosaur that had also been blown away.
We only see the magnificent fruition of your work. We miss the painstaking effort and years that go into those results. Enjoy immensely!!
ABSOLUTELY AN INCREDIBLE FIND: A ONCE IN A MILLION!
There's no need to shout.

@@chucknutly3290 dude the previous comments of you finding a dead body and your bio is something else. No offense, (fr no offense), but I suggest getting some help.
Incredible, stupendous, magnificent!I've been a dinosaur fan for 64 years out of my 68 years of life. I've read everything I can get my hands on, watched everything related to dinosaurs and this is pretty much my daily routine. The Tanis fossil site is the greatest discovery of all time. Better than "Sue". Unbelievable!
Oh yea, it is such an honour and privilege to hear and see him, God Bless him. Love him.
Newsflash: skin tissue doesn’t last 66 million years
News flash: Fossilized specimens are made of rock!
Scales NOT disintegrating in moist earth for 1,000,000s of years: VERY BELIEVABLE.
Right…
The fact you can still see the rough padding on the toes is incredible.
Why am I laughing so hard? He said it look like a turkey leg. He said the scales are in camouflage mode 🤣 damn, that leg was the only thing that got fossilized while the rest of the body disappeared.
Make use of David’s voice as much as possible. When he’s gone we are going to miss him!
I'm guessing they've already got enough archival recordings to create "deep fakes" of whatever they need him to say. I'm guessing we'll be hearing his voice on new releases for decades to come, no matter what.
@@truthsmiles Oh hell no, that's just disrespectful af.
It's like saying he'll only be remembered by his voiced.
@@isthatbraised I know what you mean, but if they pad him a million bucks and he agreed to it, I'm a lot more okay with it :)
So when you enroll in Archeology 101, you’re required to pay tuition, purchase textbooks and buy an Indiana Jones costume.
I'm more amazed by Sir David Attenborough than those dinosaurs..
Many experts thought that the Thescelosaur was feathered (and in rare opinions, furred) yet this recent specimen proves that it was scaled like a reptile! This is very exciting to me! :D
They could've had both?
Lies are exciting to you?

Not enough mosquitoes preserved in amber.
i know that you can’t extract DNA from amber
@@superdinotv3298 And yet your comment implies that ppl can try to extract DNA from fossilized bones? 🤔
@@UGNAvalon well, I might be wrong but I hope there is a way to bring back dinosaurs, I like to be optimistic.
if this is true, then the last moments of this animal, though brief, must have been unbearable. it almost certainly immediately went blind before the wave of heat turned the air into fire, and only lost consciousness when the shockwave hit. then the ground took its body and kept it safe for 66 million years. sleep well, little one. we know your story now.

How did air turning to fire not destroy the skin?
Sir David is truly amazing. The world is indeed grateful for your life and the great knowledge you have laid at our feet. Sir David, your beautiful relationship with all manner of geniuses has fed us great possibilities and allows us to behold the majesty of earth and how she preserves history for all of us to see. Grateful I am for the BBC and their talented film crews that scour our beautiful planet and it’s history. ☮️
this dude looks like indiana jones
When I was a Kid I wanted to be a paleontologist thanks to jurassic park. It was only until I got older that I didn’t pursue it due to the lack of opportunities in my country. These kind of videos bring me back
*looks at the thing for about 2 seconds*

They already know the age of the rock formation, dummy.
The only people in the world to find dinosaur bones are archaeologists
All the construction that goes on nobody finds a damn bone
Can’t find them with a bulldozer just with a paintbrush and a toothpick
Construction sites regularly find fossils.
@@jkorshak no they don’t “regularly” find anything, they rarely will find giant bones, or teeth, never full dinosaur fossils, the only people that find the intact dinosaur fossils that are identifiable as dinosaurs are paleontologists and scientist and that’s a fact.
People have been recorded finding giant bones and teeth since the 1600s no one is disputing that there aren’t ancient giant bones around our world, the thing no one ever found a full dinosaur fossil, or one that is identifiable as a dinosaur until only AFTER in 1842 when Richard Owens came up with the theory that these bones belonged to giant lizards and called them “dinosaurs” only after he came up with this theory did they start uncovering more intact and identifiable “dinosaur fossils”
@@anthonyontv Just do a quick search for "construction" + "dinosaur bones," sparky.
@@jkorshak yeah no one is disputing they find dinosaur bones brother, it just doesn’t happen every Thursday.
@@anthonyontv Construction sites regularly find fossils.
When you run out of ideas and decide to plant a muddy dinosaur leg in the middle of nowhere
For anybody who isn't well versed with paleontology/zoology, they found a skin impression which is like super rare. You're lucky to find enough skeletal remains to identify the species but they found an actual skin pattern and tissue! Skin, hair, nails and scales are mostly karatin which doesn't fossilize as well as bone or teeth so the mere fact that they have evidence of the dinosaur's skin and foot pads is really groundbreaking in the field of paleontology.
Keep in mind there's digs all over the world, thousands of people all digging up thousands of specimens and rarely do you find one as well preserved as that. You probably have a better chance of winning the lottery.
I see this in a totally different light...
"Log jam, mass death layer" means massive flooding, and if the location indeed has a crater-like impression, then it looks like more solid evidence for a worldwide flood described in the Bible and in almost every legend of the known civilizations:
"...all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of the heavens were opened." (Genesis 7:11)
Don't ruin the dreams of arrogant atheists please
Right, because asteroids couldn't possibly knock trees over, or make craters. 🙄
@@fattymcbastard6536 - Is there a lot of water in asteroids?
@@defenderoftruth6000 No, but the impact does move water.

@@EndFreemasonry A lot more believable than your "It's a projector" or whatever you believe BS.
What I find extraordinary is the fact that people really believe you can find a leg that’s 66 million years old.
66 million years........ in a warm wet place barely under ground...
Exactly. Thank you
Surrounded by fish
... must be asteroid not flood caused......
What I find extraordinary is that you, who has no clue wtf you are talking about, genuinely believe you know better than the world’s leading palaeontologists and geologists, as well as astrophysicists, geneticists, and also plain simple historians, who have often been doing this stuff for between 10-50 years to the point where you are actually comfortable openly mocking them in an online forum.
Nobody is denying Jesus. Fill yourself up with all the love you want. But let the scientists do their job away from the narrow paradigm of the flood myth. There is so much more going on than just a flood and a boat full of dinosaurs (or many, many floods).
@@randopedia1 I don’t see how the OP was mocking anyone. He simply stated that he doesn’t know how anyone can believe that such a well preserved artifact could survive barely underground for over 60 million years. One doesn’t need to be an expert to know that’s preposterous. One thing we’ve learned over the past two years is we can’t always trust what “experts” tell us. We have to verify and think for ourselves.
@@randopedia1 So so salty Mr. Benners.... I didn’t say I knew more than anyone nor did I say that they or you had no idea wtf they were talking about. It seems I have struck a nerve and not sure why comment affected you so badly but I’ll stand by what I said. I dont care how much education a guy has or how smart he thinks he is because common sense isn’t taught in any schools and common sense is all that’s required a lot of times.
There is nothing that will survive 60 million years barely underground not even concrete... but you believe that flesh will? That is insanity sir .. pure ignorance actually. The world we live in is nothing like you see it to be and one day this will be known,as a matter of fact most people with any sense at all have allready figured that out. Tell me how an animal can survive 60 million years yet mountains are turned into sand in less time.. your perception of the world you live in is fabricated for you and you have no idea what your talking about.
I have news for you. This dinosaur is not millions years old.
Well clearly... nothing says ☄️Global Death Asteroid like a log jab of dead Fish on the northern prairie ...but what I just can't figure out is what is this well preserved Dead Dinosaur Leg doing with all these Dead Fish?...was it aquatic?... and in North Dakota, no less????...which leads to the next obvious question {...but one that never seems to get asked )..if the badlands of North Dakota, in the middle of the Continent were suddenly and completely submerged...where exactly was the dry land ?
💀 🌧💦🌊🐡 🐠 🦖🏜 🐟 🦈🌊....
And yet every conceivable test confirms that they are infact millions of years old.
so cool to have discoveries like this. can't wait to hear more about this deposit.
How deep under the ground is this? In what geological level in the column is this found? Why did he said he didn’t expect to find this in this deposit? Need answers…
The Tanis fossil sight in North Dakota is a deposit that's carbon dated to be a few minutes or hours of the K-pg mass extinction. The sight itself used to be a river that flowed through the hell creek formation 66mya and is plentiful fish fossils dated to be during the astroid impact
@@kaijugodofoblivion5955 thanks , but I still wonder what level this supposedly is in in the geologic column? Also carbon dating doesn’t work on fossils that are 66 million years old. It only works on fossils in thousands to tens of thousands of years. Uranium dating perhaps would work…
They are digging in a deposit of violently scrambled material laid down by the tsunami generated by the impact that ended the cretaceous.
@@kaijugodofoblivion5955 not carbon dated, more than likely radiologically dated or dated using stratigraphy. Radiocarbon dating only works out to about 50,000 years before the carbon starts to recycle.
It is in the K/T boundary clay (now called the K-Pg). In some places, it is hundreds of feet underneath rock and in some places it is eroded to near the surface. It was estimated that the K-Pg boundary was roughly 66 million years old, but recent radiometric dating yielded a more precise age of 66.043 ± 0.011 Ma.
He didn't expect to find the dinosaur (not the deposit) because until now there has never been a fossilized dinosaur found IN the K/T or K-Pg boundary layer, it is a "thin" slice of geological history -- there are no dinosaur fossils found above the K-Pg boundary anywhere in the world and it marks a mass extinction event 66 million years ago which was the end of the dinosaurs and the beginning of mammals becoming dominant in the fossil record. What makes the deposit unique where they are digging is that instead of is being an inch or so thick like it is in much of the world, in Montana (and area) it is very thick in comparison due to what is thought to have been a massive river and inland sea tsunami from the impact energy bringing a huge amount of muck and flotsam to cover the region's rivers and valleys.
Lol.
I would believe it more if they show us the tag on it that says made in Taiwan in 66 million B.C.
Incredible how they got it on video too! Madness
