who else has this as geology homework?
me
Me.
Christian Joseph Aquino hi tian hahahaha
@@ingridesquilla8664 HI HAHAHAHA
Elosie Smith haha no. I’m a geology student and I always look for stuff like this so.... actually sort of? 😀
POV- your watching this for homework
POV: your mom walks in and sees the video title
Facts
I got a D i thought i did better 😔
I opened the comments for answers to it not a personal callout LMAO
Nope. Been out of school for 23 years. Just enjoy learning.
Just rewatched this and I love how Hutton put his view of deep time: "No vestige of a beginning, no prospect of an end". I remember hearing that in my 30s and renewed my love of geology. This era when the foundations of the science were being laid down by men like Hutton, Kelvin, and Lyell is incredibly fascinating to me. And I love Iain's guiding us--his obvious enthusiasm makes any presentation by him even more delightful. Thanks so much for uploading!
Couldn’t agree more! I knew nothing about James Hutton, it was great to learn about him, and how much he has meant for how we see our world today, presented with such contagious enthusiasm. The shots of Edinburgh in this episode made me want to go there, and two weeks ago, I finally got around to it. Needless to say, it didn’t disappoint 😁👌🏾
During a walk through that city, I stumbled on a little bench that seemed like the perfect resting place. There was a stone slab in front of it, and a few rocks strewn around that. The slab read: “No vestige…”
Full circle 😁🙌🏽
The bit about being told to stop talking about rocks on vacation is very accurate. Geologist curse. Best to go hiking with nerds. Also I love the guy hiking in a suit.
That is not a suit. Tweed is casual working wear for a gamekeeper. Tough and warm. Some designer thought it looked cool and popularized it. Eskimos wear furs to stay warm, but we have made them a fashion statement, for example. Scotland is cold like Canada.
The American geologist Parke Snavely said he was watching "Sometimes a Great Notion" with family members and they adked him to leave the room because he was commenting on the geology.
"Please stop talking about the rocks." "Yah, no, not gonna happen."
I can't believe it has taken me so long to discover this 3 part series. A fascinating and informative insight into Geology that is so well presented and sheds light on the unsung heroes that put their theories and reputation on the line. We all know about Darwin and his greatness but James Hutton is up alongside him as one of the greatest thinkers of his age. I only wish as a boy spending so many holiday's in the highlands during the 70's with my brothers and sisters i had paid a bit more attention of the amazing countryside.
I love Iain Stewart's enthusiasm.. and his strong scottish accent, too! :D
too subjective - like its always some scott somewhere that invented this or that first inspite what everybody always think.
Its in fact the thing you should never do in science - favorize on nationality or race .
Guy woud be better if he stick with footbal or some other less sophiststicated topic, there he can celebrate his empty scotishness all the time and let others who care more about truth than scotishness to do the job

Jealousy is a terrible thing, try and get over it.
U sound soooo gay 4 him
Me, too. You can tell he loves his subject.
me too!
Many thanks for uploading this. I am slowly working my way through all the bbc geology stuff I can find. Most of it is presented by Iain Stewart who I enjoy listening to. Last month I also watched a tv series from the states called "Nature of the planet - an introduction to geology" which was fantastic. I also plan to study Geology at University next year. At 40 I will be a mature student, I am a little afraid I will be older than the lecturer however I am passionate about this subject. Thanks uploader you have great content on your channel .
I like the spirit, you're never too old to study. Best of luck :)
Old student here as well - though in another domain. Life is too short - go for it!
MrGregMoore99 hopefully you’re done or almost done by now!
i hope you succeeded in endevours, i studied it uni and was amazed
31 and just about to take my last couple of pre-req's at the small local college to transfer to the Geology Dept. of the larger research University. Finally, I've realized that I CAN pursue this beautiful study and make something of it. It's been right in front of my face and I didn't realize it until now. (Even with all my rock collections and obsession with caves?!) Wild. Hooray for you and us on this journey!
Thanks very much for posting this series. I'd more or less forgotten it which is close to being a sin! When I studied geology as part of a degree, Iain Stewart's programmes were so helpful in putting dry words into technicolor in my mind that it turned an arts student into an arts/science one. It's a shame that this and the Journeys series don't appear to have been released on DVD. I fully recommend those series of his which have been to anyone with curiosity in geology or the world in general. Remember that the geology a region has affects the culture, science and trade it developed, so if your interest is human history, these programmes give valuable "back stories" for you to work with.
Sit back, watch, listen and enjoy!
i was supposed to watch the first 30 minutes of it for school, but i ended up watching the whole thing. It really is mesmerizing
Presentation is everything!
I love anything with Iain Stewart in it. I would have loved to be able to sit in on some of James Hutton's talks with like minded friends. He is truly one of the seminal figures in geology--especially Scots geology.
My old Geology teacher was friends with Stewart!! Some of the people from that class actually get taught by him now at whatever Uni he lectures at XD
What a legend man, hope I get to meet him one day lol
one of my fav BBC docs, have watched it numerous times, learned so much.
Brilliant. He has a way of looking at the camera which totally engages the viewer. Also he explains some complex theories very simply which is perhaps his genius. The accent is great too so well done to the erstwhile professor! And then of course we must give all due credit to the cameraman(woman) and the editors who put this together, and the BBC for giving the airtime that geology deserves. Scotland's scenery is spectacular and this is coming from a geologist who lives in South Africa - a place known for its magnificent landscapes. Well done to all involved!
Couldn't agree more. I've seen so many nature/geology docs that are lazy, rote exercises in tedium, with relentless, low-end, computer-generated music, bullying, hectoring narration and a host who almost looks as if he/she's phoning it in. Iain Stewart is very different - he has charisma, knowledge an almost infectious energy. He also knows how to tell a story - verbally and visually. Tnx for posting.
Gerald Davie totally agree
czcams.com/video/a2Nv4txGMeM/video.html
Complex theories, seriously? There is nothing here that we have not been told in school on geography lessons.
@@yanikkunitsin1466 well have an MSc in the earth sciences and I still believe that he has an ability to convey geological concepts to the lay person which some people aren't able to do.
A absolutely great documentary. Love the professor who narrates it and the history is just fascinating! Thank you for making this!
Thank you so much xMatx4 for uploading this wonderful series for us to watch.
Absolutely mind-blowing. As an amateur who wonders about the age of rocks and appreciates the beauty of geology, paleontology, evolution... This is so deep and beautiful ( I can't find other words...).
Wow! Haven't seen this kind of teaching anywhere! Now I can recall the slowly cooled, large crystals of molten glass and the fast cooled, small crystals formed in the translucent glass! It was not clear before why the fast cooled rock has smaller crystals! Thanks! Thumbs up #1,176. Iain, you remind me of a 'Rock Star'
I saw Ian Stewart in Glasgow city center about 8 years ago, i shouted at him 'hey Ian...you rock mate'
I interview Iain last week. Just finishing the edit. Will be coming ou in a couple of days.
Meh weegie banter
It is amazing that one person's greatest idea is just the beginning of another's idea.
Who else wants to go melt some granite rocks after seeing this awesome documentary?😁
I'm about to lose it with the amount of homework I have to do.
I'm watching this for fun mate
Are you majoring in geology?
@@ktla309 im watching this in highschool
Try to stay in the moment, commit to what you are currently studying. The rest will come later.❤
@@bonnieweaver2735 HA I'm in the AF now I don't got homework
Ian you are an amazing narrator, I love the strong genuine scott accent and the excitement in your videos, you and nick zentner from central Washington University would be the greatest duo ever, I've been studying geology, siesmology, volcanology and geophysics for over 10 years now, not counting the work I did in school, at some point I'm planning on moving to Washington to continue my studies, I know more about the pacific northwest and Scotland and britian than I do my own region. I live in ky we have some amazing geology in the red River gorge, hope you all are well, best wishes, prayers for you all, thanks Ian
The genuine display of excitement by Ian when he sees the pink granite intrude into the the gray sandstone for the first time gave me a feeling that that is how James Hutton may have reacted when he saw it for the first time! It really is hard to explain to others.
the most important thing here is that many viewers may think that Lord Kelvin is in contradiction with James Hutton; but in contrary they are both in accordance with one another, on one very important aspect: they are in disagreement with the bible about the time scale of the genesis of the Earth. the bible date its birth in 29 of October 4004 BEFORE Christ ; James Hutton theory, says that there is no birth of the Earth or the geological time is endless; Lord Kelvin dated it between 2O to 40 million years! which is almost infinity...
I adore Iain Stewart. His energy, passion for this subject is infectious.
I remember watching this a few years ago, now I'm majoring in Geology, what an amazing career I chose, videos like this helped me make the choice.
Iain Stewart is possibly the best presenter anywhere anytime for this type of thing. Warm Intelligent and low key, he is a complete natural. He knows how it works and he just gets on with it.
Top man!
Excellent, truly inspired production, a testament to some of the true heroes of our species.
"We stand on the shoulders of giants." Gorgeous land, Scotland is. Lovely people too, can't wait for my next visit. Scotland and Geology, what's not to love?
We're back and enjoyed the documentary even more this time as we have educated ourselves a bit. This is an excellent documentary and you Limeys sure do know how to do excellent work! Thanks so much for your efforts and don't forget to give your camera people the credit they deserve as is appears they were actually the first one at each place you went!!! LOL
Its hard to understand geology sometimes because it is quite complex (but really simple really). Its the greatest science ever to me yet I'm unable to verbalise myself sometimes. Nobody knows rock like J Hutton... truly my rock hero (get overwhelmed by the environment sometimes- sily really)!
Would love nothing else than to rock this rock!
This guy is a very good presenter, really natural clear style
I saw another documentary he made about James Clerk Maxwell that was also excellent
Professor Iain Stewart the Poet of Geology
My history teacher made us watch this, and, to be honest, I thought it would be boring, but turns out I was wrong! Thank you very much for posting this!
what is very interesting to your reply is about your history teacher who has advise you to look this interesting video
too much music and backround noise
This makes an excellent break from studying for my degree (in Geology!) and reminds why I do it :P
What math are you taking?
I didn't know Jason Plato was doing geography documentaries now!
Hutton came up with his theories 250yrs ago, wow look how far we’ve come since then
Scrolls Down Thru Comments
Faceplant . . .Reading Flatearther’s comments . . .
cauze, he, hutton, combined digging and thinking. poor commentators usually do neither of that, neither working nor thinking by themselves... did you know that there is a high correlation, nowadays at least, between flat earth and flat brain?
Really good documentary, thank you for sharing. James Hutton and Lord Kelvin, what an interesting lives and science achievements.
Bbc creates some of the best content. It’s great to learn and see things you’ve only read in books.
Bravo dear Professor Ian Stewart! I would like to rename the title of this very good video: a brief history of the rock cycle concept
the most important thing here is that many viewers may think that Lord Kelvin is in contradiction with James Hutton; but in contrary they are both in accordance with one another, on one very important aspect: they are in disagreement with the bible about the time scale of the genesis of the Earth. the bible date its birth in 29 of October 4004 BEFORE Christ ; James Hutton theory, says that there is no birth of the Earth or the geological time is endless; Lord Kelvin dated it between 2O to 40 million years! which is almost infinity...
Thank you for the upload. Scotland's a beautiful place. Geology is so amazing. Learned quite a bit.
I was forced to watch this for my geology class and wasn't looking forward to taking notes on a hour-long documentary about rocks, but this was actually really well made and had some great cinematography
Now I see why our ( and your) John Muir who came from Scotland was such a great explorer and field geologist who figured out so much of our Sierra Nevada mountains and western USA geology he probably knew about Hutton
Came here for the homework, stayed because this is actually a good documentary.
Great documentary - the Scottish accent makes it even more intriguing to me :) Thanks a lot for the upload, mate!
watching the series for my 5th time - i love these, learn so much and the scenery is nice, too.
At 50:00 Granite also contains potassium-40 in the feldspars so I'd imagine the geiger counter is picking up K-40 and not uranium.
Granite is a name of rocks of many different genesis conditions, so sometime it contains bothe K 40 and lead Pb which may decay to radioactive Uranium
The best explanation of geology for an interested lay-person that I have yet seen. I will recommend this to anyone who has an interest in the science of our planet. Our kids love it, especially the accent !!
Fantastic! I was looking this interesting video for the second time. Now I grasp the meaning of time, through the understanding of geological processes that underline the history of the Earth, this blue and beautiful planet. Thank you very much dear Ian Stewart for your kind effort to popularize the history of scientific ideas. I hope that this kind of documentary film be translated into Arabic, because the Arabic societies are in urgent need to demystify the forces of nature
When I grow I will be a geologist
Fantastic series! Thank you!
Who here for geology, science or chemistry?
I’m geology myself
ممتاز جدا، شكرا جزيلا. ما أحوجنا إلى مشاهدة متأنية إلى مثل هذا الفيلم الوثائقي الرائع الذي لا تتلخص قيمته في تبسيط المعرفة العلمية، من خلال إلقاء نظرة على تاريخ تطور النظريات الجيولوجية حول تاريخ الأرض فقط، بل له قيمة ثقافية تاريخية اجتماعية كبيرة. شكرا مرة أخرى
Thank you very much for this interesting video film, which has not only an instructive scientific and pedagogic aspect about the evolution of geological theories concerning the age of the planet Earth, but also this lead to have a clear idea about the history of cultural and social conditions of the human ideology past
mohamed ali barrada what a lovely comment, thank you Mohamed.
@@Holy_hand-grenade You are welcome dear Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch
This should be mandatory viewing for creationists
i am afraid, it would not help...
Absolutely fabulous narrative of earth geologic history.
I really like this guy's voice lol. I bet he's a cool ass dad
Thanks for uploding this. You changed a boring day into an interesting one
Who are the 41 fools that disliked this? Who? Because whoever they are someone needs to keep an eye out for them that they don't have educational domain over others. This documentary was fascinating
Nick Bloom nobody needs to be keeping a fucking eye out for anybody. Jesus Christ, haven’t you ever read a dystopian classic?
Probably young earth creationists or flat earthers, or both.
I think 41 students who had to make homework based on this ... me:
Cinematography/Scotland is so beautiful!
Watching this to understand geology and rock formation to find lost Norman castles
50:00 A lost opportunity here; Lord Rutherford - the father of nuclear physics and the first, with radioactive decay, to date the Earth - is the son of a Scottish immigrant to New Zealand.
Hutton's revelations were transformational.
I’ve just sat with my year 7 and increased her understanding of geology to that of a year 10
I have a question I hope someone can answer here:
The rolling chalk downs of East Sussex and Kent are exposed at the coast where you can see horizontal rows of flint exposed on the cliffs; yet the downs roll. Why? I know the flints were formed in holes in the ancient [horizontal] sea bed.
I read somewhere that the Downs were the last wrinkles of the Swiss Alps as the African plate pushes north into Europe but the flints belie that explanation yet I don't see much in the form of brooks or rivers cutting into into the bottoms of the down in the landscape near the cliffs.. the adjacent land just seems to roll up and down in a very smooth (and pleasing) way.
Great job! Thanks for providing basics knowledge.
Many thanks, been dying to see this series for ages :)
Great film .... I love James Hutton ...
Thank you for uploading.
Me I watch Nick Zentner central Washington univ on line talks field trips etc probably this guy does also. Great video most interesting. I did not know about Hutton
Iain Stewart, "the thinking woman's crumpet." Sooo true ;)
I want to become a geologist, will send my University application very soon, and enjoyed this interview:P Geology should be way more popular than what it is at the moment!
As a recent graduate Physical Geographer (very closely aligned discipline), I congratulate you on your fine choice of scholarly pursuit. Though the physigogs get to deal with weather and glaciology as well as rocks!
Yea not nearly enough people are taking Geology. Im working on my Bachelors in Geo right now but most people ive met are getting degrees in sociology or sociology. which is fine and I find the fields interesting. But those ambiguous liberal arts type degrees aren't necessarily a way to get a good job in carrers nowadays. I love history and english but people need to get more interested in math/ sciences if they want to ever get a decent job!
Andy Ewen thanks and good luck in your career :D
Trev James Yeah there way too many peple getting those kind of degrees, they are important but I guess the society needs more geologists... And good luck finishing your degree and in future:)
Mi do a big poo poo in my na na's shoe so now she slap mi bum bum
i dont know why but like this guy and his scottish accent
Absolutely fantastic. Very entertaining in the way it was presented, he keeps your attention and explains everything so clearly. I was quite dissapointed when it ended. Are there follow ups to this I see 1 of 3 ?
it should have endless follow ups!
I m here for Geology and the lovELY ACCENT.
Just the accent
i an even returning cause of it ... the accent :))
It's a great documentary , but as I'm not native english speaker , I tried hard to understand the video,and still enjoyed it , but it would be great if subtitles were added.
stunning pictures of Scotland
Not homework, just love rock.
Excellent video. Thank you.
Cannot find a documentary called 'The history of our planet', which was narrated by prof.iain stewart, which was popular on discovery channel a few years back. Very detailed, if sedate, and of course, the melodious scottish accent, the first time i heard it.
I don't remember him doing anything with that title and can't find any reference to it in the list of productions he's involved with. I'm going to make a guess that it might be... 'How Earth Made Us' which was titled in the US as 'How The Earth Changed History'. This is the first episode of the series... topdocumentaryfilms.com/how-earth-made-us/
you must be right.thanks
I am from rock. I understand that now and I feel fine.
57:00 the rocks of Torridon were being formed hundreds of millions of years after the first continents.
he grew up just 8 miles south of Glasgow then he studied there at Strathclyde uni but yeah he's got a nice, clear glaswegian accent that is like a music to ear :)
The History of Our Planet was quite serious in its tone, quite like a textbook, but quite gripping. Google does not shoe it up, now
The opening should have been Bon Scott belting out Let There Be Rock
A passing reference to Niels Stensen (a.k.a. Nicolau Steno) and his «Prodromus» would have been a nice gesture...
Guilherme He was a Dane working mainly in Tuscany, not a Scot working in the Highlands.
The host sounds like an educated Arnold Schwarzenegger. Love it
...Schwarzenegger has a thick Austrian/German accent...
I am not so interested in rocks but I think it is interesting how the world is formed with some certain substances. How rocks are formed is also cool.
Well. Im not a geologist but always wonder how landscapes, especially mountains, formed.
31:00 the Bible did never claim that the landscape never change, on the contrary
Funny how the intellectuals at the time believed the Bible didn’t support molten granite. The Bible definitely said the earth was flat and covered by a dome so it’s pointless to try and reconcile modern science with Bronze Age superstition.
This should get 1 mill subs
Love the enthusiasm and joy of the start.
Is it porn or is it geology?
Both
rock porn :D
It is science porn
Nope it’s geography 😂😂😂yep
it is: men OF rock, not: men WITH rock...
Wonderful!
Scotland is planting more trees than any country in the UK. Trees are the perfect carbon capture mechanism. Thank you Scotland.
this is my geology homework and when i saw 59 minutes i cringed not wanting to do it but it's actually super interesting!!
man the Scots came up with some good stuff between 1600-1900. Science, economics, philosophy...
If you consider this series to be good then I urge you to look for another BBC series called 'Earth Story'. Biologist Aubrey Manning narrates the 6 part series and it puts this gem of a series in its place.
Find and watch.
Without James Hutton, Charles Darwin couldn't have discovered his theory of evolution. I freaking love geology and I wish I had gone to university for a career in the field (pun intended😊).
Very weak pun tbh
Disliking this shit, my geography teacher making us watch this for an hour and filling in this worksheet💀💀💀💀 I haven’t started and it’s due tomorrow😭😭😭
Thats really a good one and inspiring
