      Thru the gene testing the scenario where you had a male Neanderthal procreating with a Homo S2 female was a low productive pairing due to some reason pure Neandr Male XY chromosomes produce infertile males and low healthy babies where as HomoS2 males had more robust sperm XY that produced healthier offspring and fecund MALES thus all sampled Neandr males past a certain date of est. HomoS2 meeting coexisting, have HomoS2 Y genes. Meaning if there was trading mates the Human dudes fked better and the women Homo or Neandr had more kids with them while the male Neandr were not as successful, no dates at the survival prom. lol😄

    Something that never ceases to amaze me is that at one point in our history the entire population of _homo sapiens sapiens_ amounted to no more than around 8,000 individuals clinging precariously to life on the African savannah!
    And so the difference between a species of hairless ape going on to develop the theory of evolution, split the atom, and visit the moon, versus, well... _nothing,_ came down to it raining _just_ when it did. Because if it had been as little as maybe one week later, then, well... _nothing._

    Having spent a great deal of time going through this very topic long ago, I can say this is one of the few youtube videos which explains the topic properly. If anything, what is not explored enough, is the impact of the ice ages on vegetation patterns. We went from a completely forested planet of the apes 10Mya, to a dry desert/savanna planet 2Mya. A key part of this change was actually CO2 levels. Let's go back 2Mya, the 15th ice age of the time reduced CO2 so much, so that the forests dissappeared along with the trees, the berries, the fruits, the vegetables. So, early Homo, had to choose between eating "grass" or eating the newly developed herbivores that ate grass. Because grass was all there was. One group of homo went after the grass and became the Astralopithicene Robustus (grass eaters) and one group became the Gracile Astralopithicene (meat eaters). Both bipedal and both smart and both tool makers but evolved to eat two different food sources. CO2 and the ice ages impact on CO2 and the impact of that CO2 on vegetation is the answer.

    • @paulwilson6511
      @paulwilson6511 Před 2 měsíci

      Whenever there was an ice age going on, homo did not eat any wheat because there wasn't any. Humans started eating wheat only 12,000 years ago because that is when it started growing good enough again. 30,000 years ago, we were eating meat because gathering wheat and growing wheat was a waste of time.

      I believe you are somewhat incorrect, though it's a detail. Australopithecus were hominins but not of the homo genus. Far as I understand things, when and where the homo genus came to be is not known. Species of Homo may have a common ancestor with and evolved alongside Australopithecus, fossil records are not conclusive. From my understanding. I'm trying to fact check myself as I'm writing this and I'm finding sources at conflict with each other. Frustrating thing.

    @Superwelder0 Před 2 měsíci +19

    A great documentary all around. The 3d printed casts of skulls really shines for comparisons on a large time scale here. Though I fear a couple opportunities were missed that would have fit perfectly within this video(perhaps they wish to save them for future long form analysis?). The first is the description of our ability to outcompete other members of our genus out of Africa did seem a bit vague. Faster reproduction cycles were mentioned as well as possible greater tool creation but no mention of other global population impactors like disease spread or geographic isolators like large mountain ranges. Another point I had hoped would be delved into more was how niche partitioning sort of starts to break down with highly intelligent species like our ancestors being able to adapt far beyond what their physiology alone allows. Think how much adaption a woodpecker has to get grubs from inside a tree. How many generations of evolution required to reach that point. Then comes along a crow that realizes it can use a stick to get the grubs in a tree without all that physical adaption. So too did our ancestors break the rules so to speak in this regard but across just about every niche we could see and reach. Regardless, a wonderful 50-odd minutes that made me think deeply so thanks fellow apes!

So many times, we blamed humans for the extinction of other creatures and rarely has that ever been the case where it turned out to be true. Even in cases where its kind of there tends to be other mitigating factors at play. Imagine if ever today we tried to take out all the pigeons. We would almost surely fail even if we pulled out the big guns like chemical or genetic weapons(the later might work hard to say). Where humans are we tend to have a lot of us but fact of the matter us we don't even touch most of the Earth and have not even begun tapping the natural resources it has to offer even on the crust let alone what is deep which is quadrillions of dollars' worth of materials. The Earth and the Universe are far larger than people seem to realize, and we are but a speck that could all be squeezed into LA California comfortably.

      @@AgentDynamic Well I have had several personal supernatural experiences with divine entities.... that was very strange but anyway I was always open to anything and everything.... I started studying and researching about 20 years ago and it was like okay with the Quran, Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, Hindu, etc and then I saw someone who was a friend of mine in school and I chopped it up with him and a few things were said that sparked an interest in my °spiritual journey°... (it was in jail actually, I'm a recovering addict and I was caught with half an oz of my personal powder and did almost five years) ... which gave me alot of time to think... I'm not going to mention the esoteric names of the cult I was learning from..(not the Masons.. this culture isn't even able to be found online, it's personal and I will be keeping it private unless you want to go to Cincinnati and get together.. So yes I do know that we were designed by an intelligence and it is beyond our thinking abilities to grasp and understand the truth... the actual facts of how and why exactly we're created to do but I don't think this is that!! It's a long story so I don't have time to really get into it unless you want to correspond via phone call... anyway I don't take for granted that you called me Mr.. I respect that. Have a great day and I will be keeping an eye out for you... peace

      I am honest with you, because that´s what we Germans seem to be (in)famous for.
      There is a possibility nowadays, that you just a new sort of troll - but no offence if this is not the case.
      Otherwise, your curiosity and open mind leads you to this obviously very scientific and educational channel, that is good for you.
      What I also see is a typical picture/reaction of a human being confronted with the analytical result of the scientific principals.
      This can been seen many many times before, especially with traumatized, insecure and/or esoteric and religious people - again, that is not mean as an attack.
      The root of this picture/ reaction is 70% fear and 30% unknowing or superficial half knowledge.
      Mostly unconsciously existential fear towards the rational viewpoint of science.
      With all the crazy looking math equations, intellectual talking about genetics, complicated chemistry, weird sounding Latin words, classifications and methods, that layman only see at a crime scene investigation.
      All the studies and exploring and digging and stargazing and calculating comes to the one conclusion:
      We are a randomly systematically formed sack of carbon and water, on a pale blue dot suspended in a sunbeam, a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark.
      To paraphrase Carl Sagan again.
      I can highly recommend his works and speeches.^^
      It is understandable:
      Science, on the first look, is for many people cold, heartless and has no transcendence or spirit like all the [insert religious cult here] and appears to be arrogant, all knowing.
      But: That couldn't be further from the truth.
      There are so many pseudo science groups with facepalm mindsets and esoteric seekers with sociopath concepts.
      Some old, some younger, and they are more clueless then ever but they claim to have "the ultimate answer of everything" [put in random deity here].
      Science instead says basically: F*** this BS!
      We have to stay objectively as possible to understand our past, our present, the future and most important - the Universe.
      To say: Yeah, nature is so complicated, we are so dumb, therefore it has to be made by a super overlord or someone else".
      And everybody that says otherwise is a "uneducated scientists".
      Please also understand, that that is simply to lazy.
      Who created the creator? Who created the creator of the creator? Where is the real starting point?
      Even if there is a being beyond our thinking and so on, like you said, we, as a intelligent and evolving species, are gaining nothing from that.
      It is a killer argument that has suppressed our progress in human history way more to often, and kills all the reasons for research and searching for answers on seemingly unsolvable questions.
      It is a echo from a long distant past, where we had no explanation for the immense forces of mother nature.
      Only praying for survival when the "Fire Mountain Gods" have a bad day.
      And no, (your) personal experience is not a proof for anything, I am sorry.
      The consciousness is a sensitive simulation and can easily fooled be misinterpretation from correlation and causality together with the pattern recognition from our ancestors in this video.
      Your addiction to "powder" makes the comment less reliable too, and I don´t know if a want to cry or lough about it, but I hope you're fine and clean.
      Engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine etc. are a good example for the importance of objectivity, everyday in your life and my life as well.
      Or from a more spiritual standpoint, try to look it like that:
      The Universe itself is the creator, and math is the language, partially invented by us, partially embedded in fabric of everything and everywhere.
      There is really no need for a separate intelligence, exactly that is the beauty in science and exploring the world around us with the eyes of rationality and childish curiosity.
      Even if that means, that there will be no final answer, #edge of the universe, # inside a black hole, #42.
      A believer (like you) in what ever looks at a flower and things: "Oh, the big spaghetti monster has great wisdom to create that colorful thingy.".
      An "uneducated scientist" looks at a flower and things: "Wow, the electrical chemical neurons in my brain appreciate the beautiful composition of base pairs and the perfect symmetry of the petals. Thanks to evolution that makes living matter from dead matter to recognize and wonder about itself".
      It is a little over exaggerated but, who do you think has the greater spiritual experience and closer contact to their "creator"? ;)
      Nevertheless, peace, live long and prosper. |V|_
