    Every other Wednesday we present a new video, so join us to see the truth laid bare...
    This spectacular five-part documentary series, presented by Tony Robinson, investigates the history of natural disasters, from the planet's beginnings to the present, putting a new perspective on our existence and suggesting that we are the product of catastrophe.
    99% of all the creatures that have ever lived, no longer exist. They were wiped-out in a series of global catastrophes. Each disaster changed the course of evolution on earth. Without them mankind, nor any of the life we see around us, would be here today. For out of catastrophe comes rebirth. Evolution is a savage, imperfect and violent process. It's survive or perish. The earth's history of catastrophes has both moulded the planet and determined evolution. For each disaster led to another leap forward on the evolutionary trail form single celled bacteria to humankind itself.
    Episode 5 - Survival Earth
    So far, humans have been lucky not to have experienced catastrophes on a global scale, like those that have extinguished 99% of all other species. Humans have come to reside as the most powerful species on this planet, but it is easy to forget that the forces that wiped out many of our ancestors are still at work. In this final programme, Catastrophe maps out key events over the last 75,000 years. During that time humans were subjected to a super-volcano that nearly devastated whole regions of Earth. The ensuing ice age that covered Europe with ice sheets many kilometres thick is said to have thwarted the development of complex civilisation, and the cosmic catastrophe that followed is believed to have changed life forever for the early inhabitants of North America.

    I live in Montreal the city with the 1998 Ice strom and big power faillure, I was a 10 years old kid, and we missed power for at least 4 weeks! I remember right after the storm, I went outside to shovel the show an ice in the driver way! I will always remember that deep overwelming feeling of stillness, All I could here were tree branches cracking everywhere and big branches fallen down everywhere, besides the cracking, a deep and intense silence! It was a rough time I will never forget!

      I lived near the Western edge of that storm. The gas station I was working at was the last station open until you got near Quebec City. Nearly 600 kilometers of ice and blackout. Most of the people stopping for gas were Hydro crews heading east. We ran out of gas around 6pm.

    Naked Science + : An excellent presentation, so typical of *_Naked Science_* . In particular, 41:58 - 42:39, the _super 'BB' gun and 'ice sheet' earth surface protector_ experiment was exceptionally fascinating. The 'BB', just over 1/8"Ø, literally *_exploded_* on impact from the kinetic energy produced/imparted as a result of firing the gun!!! 🤯 W/out the _ice sheet_ protector, 'BB' impact on _experimental earth's_ surface produced a perfectly circular/round _crater_ , even though the shot was made at an acute angle. The 'BB" reached speeds 5 times that of sound, its impact evidence of _explosive_ force! It looks to be extremely fortunate that we here on earth "haven't been unlucky...yet"...
    Well worth time spent watching! 🤗🤗🤗 Accordingly, it is given the _YT_ 'thumbs-up' 👍🏻 award!

      There's a 12% chance that we get hit with a Carrington Event level CME in the next decade, and yeah asteroids are a real threat as well. It looks like the Younger-Dryas period was a Taurid fragment. In 2017 astronomers discovered a new branch of the Taurid Meteor Stream which contained thousands of comet fragments between tens of meters up to a kilometer. We pass through pretty close to the swarm next year, and then in 2032 we go directly through the dead center of the densest part of the swarm and then again in 2036. Also the summer Taurids are all in heliocentric orbits meaning that they can't be spotted with Earth based telescopes usually until right before they hit because they come from the direction of the sun. So we'll be sitting ducks.

    Watching the last part, where they used the ice. I have a question. If about 1 mile of ice was surrounding the area... WTF BURNED? Trees and other vegetation was non-existent. So what was the boar eating. For this too be possible the area couldn't have been covered in ice. Also the ice would have had to be at least that mile thick. While the BB they used may have been going as fast as an inbound meteor. It doesn't have the power to weight ration to make it a valid comparison. Imho an air detonation would seem more likely. It more simply explains the lack of a crater. The Tunguska blast was a small asteroid and look at how it spread and again no real crater, not like you would normally expect. But where was the fire? This was right among trees. With our sky view imagery I have read or seen somewhere they found what appears to be the crater. However a high concentration iron meteor with low cohesion, say do to fracturing or impurities. Super heated by friction the Earth's atmosphere exploding above ground. That would be like spraying thermite.

    interesting that you bring up the quebec ice storms. The power lines were brought down by a build up of ice on the lines. The weather front that caused this was not a first occurance in Canada and had been forecast for at least 2 weeks prior. An engineer working for Quebec hydro had proposed that they heat up the lines with shorts to ground that would heat up the lines and melt the ice at the cost of a few thousand dollars worth of electricity. Quebec Hydro said no thanks, The federal gov't would bail them out and pay to rebuild the lines anyway.
    Canadian Military moved in to provide help and if you didn't speak French you were not allowed out of the compounds after 9pm. The Quebec politicians have spent decades trying to make their population think the Anglos all hate them. They could not allow us to actually have civil discourse with their people.

    Ok. As far as the theory of 'mysterious circumstances' burning and killing off the mammoth creatures (about 35 min.) being an asteroid without producing a crater - HERE is THE big question: If a layer of ice as deep as a mile (or even less) prevented a crater from forming, then that same ICE would ITSELF have been enough of a layer to prevent both Mammoths AND the Clovis people from having vegetation to eat to begin with. They state that ice covered much of N. America during that part of the Clovis Era. This is a contradiction disregarded or not addressed in this video. Isn't it possible that what happened in Ohio, is just like Tegunska - an asteroid exploding before it hit the Earth? Good video & scenery, overall. I wonder why, if there is evidence that an asteroid the size of the Tunguska Event happens every 100 years or so. Why don't we have more information on one for each of say, the last 1,000 years? Do we? I'd love a video on that! And curiously, they mention European Boars...not North American...why?
