"There's a catastrophe at the one yard line."
Just like every Seahawks-Patriots game.
Internally Dying lmao
Internally Dying
Bruh, you win everything.
Internally Dying for joke of the year, you have my vote!
not enough likes on this
too soon
I'd rather have this guy as a teacher than who I do now
jay 4548 wouldn't we all
Same
This is amazing and so well made!
I like it when they do it with the yardstick.
We field questions from our audience every week, and our goal is to tackle them in a creative way. This week, we ran around a football field to talk about Deep Time.
Why are Americans not using the metric system, like everyone else in the world? :-/
They actually tried in schools when I was a kid in the early 70s. It didn't last very long, unfortunately. Now I have two sets of tools SAE and Metric. Metric is show easy to organize and think about.
Shame the toys had to be horrible. Why didn't you mention the Permian extinction though?! It killed ±90% of all life!
+Kevin the toys were fine. Your video was better?
Skunk Bear bullshit
What a great visualisation! I love it!
"Catastrophe on the one yard line"
*Superbowl 49 flashbacks*
Wow, it must have taken a lot of people a lot of work to answer the question with such quality! Great idea to use the football field.
The earth went through all of this just so mankind could destroy it......
Melly Alvarado then it just keeps going whether humans are here or not
Carbeeezy Entirely true
Максим Шишов Wth is wrong with you?
Dumb liberal
how does that make him a liberal its true?
Awesome! and I'm allowed to say that without it being hyperbole.
Jesus Christ its Jesus Christ
I'm literally doing homework why are you here
How are you verified as Jesus
Seriously? Please don't use the name of God
@FE4R_LIVE he isn't God.
I have favorited this and will be using this video to teach how to be successful on TH-cam
And humans think we're hot shit.
Bro honestly i wish i could go back into the past and see what the wild looked like without buildings
Same. The beauty would be overwhelming.
Matthew Krivanek Why though? We have access to everything we need, right here on present day!
Hey, you see any other species making pizza? I think not.
.. go to a forest, or some plains, or a rainforest, or the desert, all of these things literally still exist, you can go and see them right now, probably within an hour of you even if you live in a big city. You don't need to time travel to do any of that.
People love this fantasy of "oh the past was so much cooler". It literally just looks like all the undeveloped land that you can go and see any time, cities are tiny in the grand scheme of the planet.
Fantastic video, glad I was sent here via Philip DeFranco, can't wait to see more stuff!
Thank you for making this video! There are so many versions of this idea (deep history visualized), but I like this one best. My students always benefit from it!
Production quality is so goooooood! Love the presentation too, fantastic video.
Glad I found this channel on the trending page.... awesome videos!!!
The final light metaphor and image is so wonderful. Thank you for making this!
It's still mind-blowing that every 1" = 1,300,000 years.
That's 6.5 x as long as our species has been on this planet. 250 x older than ancient Egypt. 1" is a looooong time.
M. Utley The weirdest part about Egypt is that the Romans to us are as old as the Egyptians were to the Romans. It's p crazy.
M. Utley
My penis spans 10.4 million years. 😂
Mushrooms; the best and oldest pizza topping on the planet.
azdgariarada I wouldn't say best.
Oh right, artichoke hearts. I forgot. ;-)
azdgariarada and the catalyst for our evolution! 🍄
This all just puts into perspective how truly great humans are. In just about a millimeter on a football field, humanity made advances that dwarf anything the could be in the past. It's truly fascinating what Man did with such little time.
And also about to obliterate the planet…
What BYA is the fish, land plants, insects, sharks and amphibians? And also, what is that thing at 3:03? Not the stegosaurus, but the other thing.
Edit: Flowers, maybe?
3:20 the catastrophe is Russell Wilson throwing an interception
What a great video, what I like most is the football field analogy, the football field is an exact measurement. The video is easy to understand and the narrator does a great job explaining just how old the earth is.
Great video!!!
I love the idea of a football field.
My question is how do you go from simple cells to multi-diverse cells. Nutrition and photosynthesis keep them going but what changed them?
Great question! There is evidence that at two separate occasions one cell swallowed another cell and became super powers! First, one cell (with its own DNA) was engulfed inside of a larger cell(1.45 BYA.....or on the 30 yard line.) The first "power house" could break down sugars and create useable and moveable energy for the larger cell....the mitochondria.
During another "swallowing event" we began to have cells that could transform energy from the sun into a storable and useable form----photosynthesis (1.25 BYA...or on the 27 yard line). This proved to be extremely useful and eventually overtook the earth with green organisms....plants! There are a number of bits of evidence that point us to these conclusions....if you are interested I can explain more.
That moment when you've already seen the secret link of the day...
What program do you use for your animation work? Incredible.
After Effects!
Came from the Philip DeFranco Show. Good stuff, really interesting
Morgan... Does that mean you're based in Baltimore? (or somewhere close to it?)
Washington, DC - but Morgan State was nice enough to let us borrow their field for an afternoon.
Awesome, Well if you ever need help with a BBQ/ Grilling/ Open fire flame cooking and or a fire related video and I can help please look me up. I'm in Baltiomore.
Loved this explanation. I've been an atheist for over 15 years now. (I'm 31) and I'm always fascinated with the history of the world. As told by scientists....and not religion. Will definitely be sharing this and watching it again.
Very cool examples! It seems the single cells learned how to create communities and then become one organism? Wonder if similar could happen to humanity one day? one giant super human organism? Not human centipede though. gross 😲 But like one giant consciousness network powered by all humans at once to create new level of life/creation/existence, idk? It seems we could be going towards that... Ok, I'll go think about that... 😱
+GentleWhispering
The Borg.
GentleWhispering you mean humans working together to see the bigger picture ?
That's what humans use communication and trade for, so we can specialize: we all know a little bit and work on a small part.
Thanks Maria! I actually listened to your videos while doing the animating on this piece ... gets me in the zone
@@skunkbear thats wierd
Wow! I am truly grateful that you made this - and did so in such a clear and careful way.
So basically a whole lot of nothing happened until like 3 minuts ago in the grand cosmic scale of time. Neato.
Only take one President to end it all. Merica
Liemciemdk89 yeah Hilary clinton would have been earths end
iam awesome Nah with Hillary it would've been more of the same, less change and all. Trump is a train out of control, about to derail and kill a bunch of people. What's that? Oh wait, it's already derailed.
Who exactly is he going to get killed?
Liemciemdk89 Yeah. And it's gonna be Kanye West.
Invalid Account wouldn't put it pass voters becoming a joke. I like President Camacho 2024
What do you define the beginning of earth to be? My limited understanding is that earth started as an accumulation of space dust and debris, so didn't it have to grow? would it be at the beginning of that growth or towards the end?
This channel doesn't have enough subs nor views wtf
0:29 - earth's age
1:08 - beginning of earth's history
1:19 - life began 3.8 billion yrs ago (simple life)
1:53 - 2.3 bil. yrs oxygen starts building up in the atmosphere (half way down the field)
2:40 - 530 million yrs ago > animals walk on land
2:50 - at the 5 yrd line, mammals & dinosaurs just started to appear
3:16 - the asteroid hits & kills 75% of the species
3:52 - 200 thousand yrs ago > humans appear
Imagine if humans were on earth for a billion years. If it lasted that long.
9ers1fan We'd probably look much different from evolution if we hadn't wiped ourselves out by that point.
9ers1fan, multiple human species would have probably evolved by then.
9ers1fan, I doubt that the rapture wouldn't happen by then
much much futuristic humans watching lesser evolved humans in an enclosure
That was amazing! My five year old is fascinated by astronomy and earth science and is now saying “MORE MORE MORE”
Phillip de France squad
unless they are a group of people out of france who watch the show, then its totally correct.
The width of that light bulb killed the earth
Sean Jaszczur we can't wipe out all life.
Even if we used all the nukes on earth life would survive. Just like after the dinosaurs.
The light bulb overestimates its power.
jessssuuss the quality on this vid is waaaaaayyyy much better than the top 5% of youtubers!! sub!!!
Imagine if humanity had existed earlier in the scale that this guy used to visualize history. Its incredible to think of what kind of human innovation could have taken place if we were at our pinnacle of understanding millions of years ago...
This video was Fantastic, if your other content is half as good as this video you have earned yourself a subscriber
Why is an oscilloscope being used for video communications?
Why not? :)
That's a good point ^o^"
What math was used to calculate this from age to distance?
thank you phil!! this was really cool!
Secret Link Army UNITE!!!
Here here
*VIOLENTLY UNDERRATED* , 5 years and just half a million views...
Nice video. Actual quality on youtube nowadays is harder to find than you think.
well done my friend, cant wait for more videos! have a nice day and stay healthy!
Awesome! All the videos I've watched about this have been made with graphs and this really puts things in prospective!
Thanks for the video. Does anyone remember Tom Arnold doing a similar video where he drove a car along a long measured line of Earth's history and at the end he get's out and points to a tiny mark at the end and said this mark represents how long humans have been on Earth. I can't find the video anywhere and looking for it is how I found this one.
Truly amazing presentation, really puts time into perspective!
Wow here is my question then, after the meteor you would think you would have to go through a good portion of the beggining process dont you? Like, the time it took between fungi and stuff to dinosaurs, suddenly life after the meteor seemed to spring much faster. ?
You should market a kit so teachers across the country can do this visualization with their students (lights, dino toys, Lucy etc). So powerful!
This is a grat video! Thank you for doing this. Keep up the good work.
0:28 ~ 0:31... I loved it.... why doesn't we hear this more often !!
TH-cam teaches me more than school.... The US education system sucks.
z3K1sH Maybe you were just a poor student. I didn't learn anything here that I didn't already know. This is standard info you get in both Earth Science and Biology classes.
z3K1sH THANK U !!!! Finally!!! Someone who has brains.
z3K1sH Not really. I actually pay attention during my classes. Nothing new on TH-cam that I haven't learned in school.
Wn Liao I mean, maybe if it was just your school, but this is already common knowledge you would learn in middle-high school if you actually paid attention in class..
z3K1sH
Maybe you should actually listen in class, because it is most likely that they taught you this a billion times over.
Why do the counties get smaller every year? What state do u think will go under?
This is very well produced and awesome!
GTS matched to a football field is a wonderfully concrete example, thank you.
If plants started photosynthesis how come oxygen started being produced several yards later?????, also when aprocimatly was complex thought first observed or evidence of it occuring, one further question completely unrelated, in what in ur guys opinion is the fuel of yhe future and how will hydrogen be produced (that is my personal fave) loves and kissesss xxxxxx
Seb Briggs cyanobacteria produced the first oxygen.
Seb Briggs it was s big part of the atmosphere several yards later, not started being produced
Woow 😳. Great work man 🔥. Seems We just started our journey. Hope we have a long journey ahead.
thank you to philip defranco for sharing this because this was such a cool video!!! I loved it
It's strange how sure this guy is about events billions of years ago, but doesn't know what killed off the dinosaurs around the one yard line.
Wow that really is maybe the best example I have ever seen for earths time line.
All I got from this video was that the Cowboys are gonna beat Washington..?
Juan Aguirre
Safe bet.
Another awesome video, thanks so much
Wow great visualization and explenation, deserve commendation
Tell me why I heard this same thing on NPR??
Because SkunkBear is an offshoot of NPR.
Cyanobacteria is a more complex prokaryote, and responsible for the production of oxygen in the oceans. It's quite important to declare at what time simple bacteria is the only species, then moving on to more complex bacteria and lastly eukaryotes, don't you think? Great video tho, subscribed!
Here from Phil DeFranco. Great channel, have subscribed.
I came from Philly D, too! 😃
me three!
Thank you! Very nice visuals and explanations in a student facing language! THANK YOU!!
This was fantastic glad that Philip DeFranco led me here and glad to see what comes next :)
Can u do the same thing but with a timeline of human civilization? Ex. We’re the Egyptians running around the same time rome was?
Watched this video again right now - I just love it so much! :)
This is so cool, this taught be better about us than my school did! Thank you +PhilipDefranco for your secret link!!!
Why do u use football feilds
One day you'll have millions of subscribers and i'm just gonna say that i was here from the beginning.
Not quite
@@b3p lol it's not my bad that he stopped uploading videos... I don't even remember leaving this comment haha this shit made my day
@@YunusIrmak Oh, yeah... not saying this is on you Bird Brother. Glad to hear you got a chuckle out of it.
It's very crazy once you put into perspective how old the earth is.
Awesome video!
This is freaking awesome!!!
The water erosion on the sphinx says otherwise about the time line.
Go look up Randal Carlson and Graham Hancock if you want some accurate historical data.
Extremely cool animations as always.
Excellent video. Thank you.
my students love this video, thank you!
very very cool (: even though it'ss stuff we've been taught before, it's always fun to see it in a new light (literally)! :D
I like the scale down geological time scale but you should have put in the Eons, Eras, Epochs and Ages.
This was awesome 👏🏻 new sub
no way of knowing this, cant even predict the weather. never been deeper than 12 miles in the earths crust
I know. these scientists get so ahead of themselves and jump to the most bizarre conclusions
Squad do you know what happened before you were born, nope, you just know what everybody told you or somebody documented, stuff gets jumbled around
THANKS PHILLY D
Loved the video
My biggest question to this is, but where does this lead is to in let's say... 1million or even 1 billion?
Interesting view of time and we are so impatient for the end!
I came here from the secret link of the day. And I'm not going to lie, this was so good!
Cool video, thanks!
Why do the planets get bigger as they move along, but then get smaller as you get farther?
dude thanks now i know about stuff for my schoolwork
This was great. thanks
It's not that we're insignificant. Human history is just beginning. First episode of Cosmos explains it well. It's just all a process.
Good work
