    I’m born and raised in Lafayette, Louisiana and my brother and I just recently had a discussion about how the government Mexico was formed and he had no idea at 51 years old that there was a crater from a meteor involved. And it’s crazy because I thought everyone knew that. This is an absolutely well put together documentary and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Good job.

    The one thing I always see wrong about documentaries about the asteroid strike that took out the dinosaurs is that they always show the strike with the land masses as they are today. With plate tectonics, the land was in a different arrangement 65M years ago than they are now. Most of that peninsula was under water with islands around it that eventually became Central America.

      A very well presented pack of Lies, and mis-information. God made the earth and our solar system about 6000 years ago, and all the earth's layers of rock, mountains, oceans, were all made about 4600 years ago from the worldwide flood event. Yes, an Asteroid mage the Gulf of Mexico, and expelled all that dirt north creating the Himalayas and so forth, and other oceans. It also created continents, and Islands which didn't exist prior to the flood, as the Asteroid's impact caused earthquakes and volcanoes. The Earth was transformed as this receding process caused the sloshing back and forth of the waters covering the earth, which laid down layers of silt and dead animals, which we see all around the world today in the layers of rock and in fossils.

    I remember being a kid when the deepwater horizon disaster happened, I remember crying while watching the newsfeeds.. The desperate attempts to stop and deal with the oil, the marine life suffocating and drowning in all the oil.. I'm from a Canadian oil town where we do land reclamation and never understood why they would even risk all this for the oil until I learnt about how much was there, and how valuable it was. I honestly feel like humans would been far more advanced now if we weren't so driven by greed.

      There were speculations that parent company BP ordered its' supervisors to cut operating costs by 25%. As a result safety implementations were bypassed or neglected to meet this parent company directive. Halliburton who was in charge of the cementing and texture at the bottom of the well casing did not disclose defects in the cement being used which was perhaps the primary reason the crude was not contained ?

    Myron Cook did a video about the topographical features of the Gulf, especially between Texas and Florida. There are so many pockmarks between 5k and 8k feet below sea level, so my thought isn't a single asteroid, but multiples over time. That said, it's absolutely possible that the asteroid in question broke up in the atmosphere and peppered the entire region, including land, generating more particulates than a single strike.

    I lived in Key West for 20 years and when the gulf spill happened I had nightmares about waking up with the entire marina swamped in oil. We were in zone A, the worst place to be with the flow of the currents. Day after day I would go out on the deck of the houseboat afraid to look at the water. Strangely, we never saw a drop of oil (shrugs). In general, the Gulf of Mexico played a big part in our lives in the keys. The only hurricanes we ever kept an eye on were ones that went into the gulf because all other paths were not a threat. If hurricanes were a real problem, those little islands would have been wiped out long ago but the big trees remain standing and I only saw one bad flood in 20 years. Came from Wilma after she strengthened in the gulf, and then surprised us by going in reverse and hitting the opposite side of the island which rarely happens.

      It all washed up to us, on the gulf coast of Mississippi and Louisiana. Oil you wouldn't believe giant tar balls as well on the sand. It doesn't make sense it would go down there. Being how close it was to the coast of Ms/La the water gets pushed to shore from there towards us. Also the the tropical Jetstream pushes gulf moisture up into the united States that's what fuels all the rain storms for the country.
      I was in line to sign up for the clean up but after hours of waiting im glad I left. They didn't give the clean up workers safety gear. And there are major lawsuits for health issues and cancers from the clean up. BP screwed everyone they could then and now.

    My dad's rig was the sister rig that followed New Horizon's around, he was 3 miles from it when it happened, the executives were on that rig, told the mechanics what to do and they messed up the cement mixture, if those executives had not been there pressuring those men to do something they do they shouldn't have done it would've never happened

      @bowlampar, so-called "big oil" provides us with plastics; fertilizers; pesticides; pharmaceuticals; gasoline for cars and emergency generators; propane; diesel fuel for trucks, trains, ships, and electrical power stations; aviation fuel for planes; lubrication oils; solvents; glues; synthetic rubber for tires and weatherproofing; asphalt; and paints, among other commodities.
      Practically everything we use or consume in daily life was either derived from oil, natural gas, or has some oil-derived component. For example, cell phones, computers and appliances contain parts made from crude oil. Modern car bodies and interiors are mostly made from crude oil; all industrial machinery and means of transportation need lubrication; and the world would have a difficult time feeding everyone without oil-derived pesticides and fertilizers.
      I should also mention that the electrical power needed to charge electric cars is derived mostly from traditional (and long-lasting) power-stations "fueled" by oil, gas, nuclear and water (from dams.) Power derived from solar is negligible, and the the disposal of solar power equipment (windmills, solar panels, and so forth) is an environmental disaster waiting to happen. Burning wood chips is an environmental disaster in itself; and so is the mining, manufacture, and disposal of the materials needed for the huge batteries found in electric cars.
      The bottom line is, the traditional sources of power generation -- oil, gas, coal, nuclear, and hydro-electric are far more environmental friendly in the long run than solar, and will remain so until dramatically different solar generation processes are invented.
      Many decades ago, I took two college courses in air pollution engineering when air pollution control was in a rather primitive state. The technology has now advanced to the point that burning coal is a rather clean process when compared to its emissions prior to President Nixon signing the Clean Air Act into law in 1970. The largest atmospheric release, by far, is CO2, which plants thrive on. Ask any greenhouse operator.

    I think the impact there was a catalist that cause some of the continental "drift." I think it was more forceful than a drift. I think it tramatized the tectonic plates, triggering volcanic activity along the Mariana Trench, & setting the continents in sudden motion.
    Also, at other times, other asteroid impact locations globally had basically the same effects, but the elements in those areas being different caused differing effects that caused other tectonic plate shifting. So, I think the plates were shifted instead of drifting slowly. They may have continued "drifting" after being fractured & set in motion, but I don't think they were always fractured.

    That is a very interesting point. Importing more slaves was illegal BEFORE already owning slaves was illegal. So, they understood that slavery was a problem & not good, but even when slavery was made illegal, setting them free created huge problems of where they were to go, to live & get jobs. Freeing them in itself was a cruel shock to them & everyone of that time.

    Thanx so much for the superb graphics to visualise these cataclysmic event. There's a lot of questions arising, such as how does the animal and humans of today evolve after all animal life was wiped out by this cataclysm? If there were other animals besides the dinosaurs, how was it that only the dinosaurs were wiped out? Its also crazy to see how companies spend billions upon billions of money and effort to retrieve gas and crude oil while the ocean and other water resources can be used as energy by means of electrolysis. Okay industry and machinery still needs lubrication so crude oil can still be a source of this necessity.

I think it's something about the sense of community that comes from living in a world more dependent on everyone around whereas nowadays we don't even know most of the people in our own neighborhoods, nobody seems to have shared values or religion anymore, etc. but I think most people would see this current time period in a far more positive way if they had a better understanding of human history.

    Remember the oil was always there, if not a well a quake or volcanic activity will break those sea beds some day. Better to tap and use then wait for a crack. Some salt domes have even sank ships when cracked and often salt and oil are found together.
