For most of human history, we believed that Homo sapiens were the only human species to walk the Earth. But modern discoveries have revealed something far stranger. Scientists have uncovered evidence of other human species that once lived beside us. Some were powerful hunters. Some survived in extreme environments. And some vanished in ways science still struggles to explain. In this documentary, we explore the mysterious human species that challenge everything we thought we knew about our origins. From ancient bones hidden deep inside caves to fragments of DNA preserved for tens of thousands of years, these discoveries are rewriting the story of humanity. Who were these ancient humans? How did they live alongside our ancestors? And why did they disappear while Homo sapiens survived? Join us as we dive deep into the world of lost human species, prehistoric discoveries, and the scientific mysteries that still puzzle researchers today. This is the story of a human species science still struggles to explain.

You shouldn’t use Sir David’s voice…
There is no footage to this awful rip off of Sir David Attenborough. Rubbish.
Homo Naledi is a powerful example of how natural selection ("mother nature") operates to select beneficial traits within a population, similar to the adaptive radiation observed among finches in the Galapagos Islands. While the Galapagos finches developed diverse beak shapes for different food sources, Homo Naledi developed a unique mosaic of traits—combining primitive, ape-like features with modern, human-like ones—that were selected for a specific environment and lifestyle, likely involving both terrestrial walking and tree climbing. No interbreeding needed.

Then perhaps African pygmies evolved due to their specific location? And the same may be true of other smaller Island dwelling species. Very calming narration. Easy to understand. The voice I grew up with.
Ser David’s voice is one of the BEST! BDS! 🍉✌🏽💙✊🏽
Take A Moment 1:42 Let's Relax and enjoy a wordsmith at play. Thank you my fellow Ape, I have loved your work since the early 60's Take Care Stay Safe and Stay Free
There was another Entrance, But for the purpose of Drama the almost impossible was sold to the public , Please prove me wrong.
Great! Thanks!
I found a petrified humen head in ohio very refiend featurs about 1/2 size looked like a Greek senator
Too many advertisement. It listening!!!
This is a sham! A string of unrelated photos and videos narrated by a highly questionable David Attenborough! Shame on you!
Would have been nice to see an estimated appearance instead of squirrels, unless that's what they looked like lol ...
Please block advertising
Funny they don't look a day over 299,000.😊
Is it possible that homo sapiens put the bones in the chamber? Maybe they kept these creatures as pets

Ugh. Stop using Sir David's voice.
Happy to hear, Sir David, my favorite knowledgeable presenter. I can't understand, however, the producer's disrespect to him, a much-loved person, by showing silly footage that has nothing to do with the subject matter.
It proved that they loved each other and the morned their dead and we were manipulated probably from this species by an advanced civilians
