We now need a prequel that shows how life began from nothing, how the first single‑celled organism formed, how early life evolved into complex creatures, how some of them left the water, and how that long evolutionary journey eventually led to our ape‑like ancestors.
thank you that was brilliantly put together
We all won the lottery, think about the odds, of any of us surviving seven million years . Much less the development of a brain that evolved to a point to ask, where did I come from??
Way over populated now, can't imagine a thousand years
Keep making videos like this but also bout space!
We're such masters that we've driven ourselves to the brink of real extinction.
The way prehistoric creatures evolved over time is so fascinating. It's like seeing nature’s greatest experiments unfold right before our eyes
One minute in, and it had me. Awesome job here!
The Denisovan section is going to need updating soon. June 2025 — the Harbin skull was confirmed Denisovan via mtDNA from dental calculus, plus an independent proteomic match in a companion Science paper. First nearly-complete cranium of the species. Qiaomei Fu put it well: after 15 years, the Denisovans finally have a face.
The evolution of prehistoric creatures is fascinating! It’s amazing to see how they adapted to such harsh environments
Great documentary! Bone marrow never looked so good. The magic sauce for human evolution.
Our special weapon is our brain
Now the next step having created democracy and robots, we have them do our work and we live off their labor!
Our species won't make it another 1000 years, we'll be lucky to make it another 100 years.
If we are relatives from chimpanzee, how come they look the same now?
Ever heard of Adam and Eve?
Very cool video
Amazing
I could have swore the homo erectus guys running down the antelope one of them had my airpods
Male Chimpanzees are as dangerous as a Grizzly Bear , if you piss them off , slightly . They WILL EAT YOUR Face . That's why , in films and TV shows , Bonobos , from South of the Congo River , are made those cute 'stars' . North of that river ? They are super - smart ... NEVER underestimate them . More dangerous than a huge , male , silver - back Gorilla .
