The channel is truly outstanding. I can’t believe I get to watch this for free.
I feel the same way, astonishing isn't it.
I know what you mean but don’t disregard those pesky advertisements as non-payment.
Honestly tho!! It’s amazing!
Really? I wish it would just go away. CZcams keeps auto playing after totally unrelated videos and I can't make it stop.

Here we are. I appreciate how these videos are at the same time relentless, informative, nostalgic, fascinating and soothing.
In the afterlife, I imagine that I can watch the whole history of the Earth unfold like a movie. So I get a birds-eye view, I can zoom in and out, and I can Fast-Forward, Pause, and Rewind at will. I can see the Earth form, change, Life emerge, extinction events, and repeat.
What a show that would be.
this is my unattainable dream is
That's a neat dream. Being able to find answers that wouldn't make sense in a corporeal existence. After all, consciousness is massless yet it seems to drive for life in every step of the way, so perhaps in a way, we're more than we think we are.
I've dreamt of basically that exact idea, extending it to the notion that you could see not only the history, but all of the future as well. The entirety of the universal time cube.
Unfortunately, when it comes to the afterlife, I follow Occam's Razor. As much as I would love for this to be the case, I will go through life under the assumption that the termination of life will give way to oblivion.
That being said, once I reach that point, I'd be extremely grateful to be proven wrong. Although at the same time, I feel like you wouldn't want to exist for eternity. Even if I could see the entirety of the universe, I'm sure that at some point I would tire. The self has to be put to rest at some point . . . I'm just of the opinion that in present day it's all too early.
You will fair according to your deeds, afterlife is not a fixed destiny.
So we get up there and find out that Earth is TBE way is because of a typo in it's programming.
This channel is so underrated. The high quality is undeniable and sounds like a real documentary that would be on cable or something. I'm always so excited to see that a new episode got uploaded!
My boyfriend insisted for half an hour this is BBC or NG material ripped from DVDs. He just asked me to put this on. Just perfect.
I have to admit I kinda thought it was a real documentary from BBC or NG myself and I think it has the potential to go places in the world of documentaries. Well done guys.
So perfect love this channel
It is a real documentary... wow you guys
@@lo0ksik and you should have understood they meant the quality itself
"Animalcules" is probably one of my favorite words in the world.
One of mine is "animalculi" 😜
Petition for a Patreon! This guys deserves a lot of appreciation!😊
You can also help by subscribing to their individual channels. They are listed in the video description.
If I was ever to donate on Patreon its going to be for this channel. This channel is so underrated and deserves more support. It is becoming frustrating to wait months for new videos. At the same time CZcams is becoming full of videogames channels and "animals being funny" channels, each with millions of subscribers and posting majorly stolen videos, yet they even have the nerves to ask for Patreon support.
Yesh. Many loves fur this guys.
"Web of life" is something l hadn't heard in decades. Thank you.
Sadly it has been replaced by 'a web of lies'. I really don't understand why people would deny science. The madness of today's world, deny everything which makes the world tick.
Just wanted to let you know I appreciate your username. It's hilarious.
Shout out to all the protozoans out there.
**billions of tiny cheers are heard**
Awesome comment
Trillions
@@neomt2 not every protozoan cheered, neo.
Some are assholes.
😂🤣
Don’t get them started!
There is something terribly soothing about his voice! In my opinion, he has the perfect voice and cadence to replace Sir David Attenborough when the world loses that amazing person!!! So glad I found his and his brother's channels!
This is the first time I'm leaving a comment on youtube saying that what I've just saw was really enjoyable... even fascinating,
The simple and yet detailed information that was presented in this piece was done in an accurate way, yet without any presumption or arrogance (as I often see), and the narrator doesn't get you tired, and keeps you interested in a sort of calm way.
Congratulations. Keep up the good work guys. I really really enjoyed watching this. 😉🤔🤨🙄😏😁😀
This has got to be one of the best channels on CZcams. I have been hooked ever since the first episode. Awesome and truly magnificent in it's breath and depth of content.
Extraordinary piece of work - the whole Planet Earth series. I tell friends and colleagues and they probably sense my enthusiasm. I’ll be keeping a lookout for the next one, always! Thanks heaps for all the effort you’ve put into this. Cheers!
I’ve been lighting a Cuban cigar, pouring a double of neat Glenfiddich, and watching one of these videos every day for a week now. Love what you’re doing here, my friend.
I always want to cry when I see y'all made a new one. 😫 Why couldn't I find this AFTER it was complete lol. This is my favorite series.
Me too, because I really love Planet Earth.. Really 😎✌
@@marc-andrebrunet5386 really?
@@trapjaw86 yep !🤘😎🍻
It makes my day when I see that a new video has been posted. Learning about our earth and its history is time well-spent.
Have you checked out the History of the Universe, the sister channel to this? It's just as good as this.
Hm...feels like a marriage between history of the earth and journey to the microcosmos. Love it 😁
Thank you, for another great content. I've no idea how many times I rewatched your videos to wind down at night. Knowing how insignificant I am in the grand scheme of things helps me to put my existence (and problems) in perspective.
Interesting, fascinating and even exciting. I'm truly grateful that in later life I can pursue and immerse myself in all that amazed me as a youngster but until recently remained unattainable. I now have the option, the means and the time to learn about the world and our place in it.
Same bro same
I agree. I am 36 years old, but watching these videos fills me with the same wonderment I had about the world as when I was a young child. It is a priceless gift these people have given and I am truly grateful.
There have been ways to do this for generations, in books.
@@Brett_S_420 Congratulations you've won the 'Ya Don't say' award🏆 for completely missing the point and pointing out the obvious.
@@eardwulf785 Seemed like you may have forgotten. My bad.
One of my favourite places on CZcams. A place I like to visit again and again.
Every time a new video comes out I have to watch them all again from the beginning
This is fast becoming my favorite science channel! The detail and simplicity are second to none, and the narration is fantastic. Thank you!!!
23:50 so few people mention Linné when speaking about science and biology! He's one of the 'founding fathers" of science, and yet barely anyone mentions him. So utterly strange. We're taught all about him in Swedish schools obviously, isn't anyone else?
We learned about him in my middle school and high school in America, although I didn't know he was Swedish and our textbooks always called him Linnaeus. For some reason I thought he was French.
I Already know this video is fire. We can all like it as soon as we get here to help the algorithm.
very yes
Feed the AlGoreRythm!:-) 🖖

@@CrankyPantss how do you think I know about the starting of this channel? But to everyone else... this^^^
"The animal kingdom is breathtakingly diverse. It holds us in strange fascination as we see some form of our own consciousness mirrored in even the most bazar tentacled body..... The diversity of earth's modern biosphere is one of it's greatest wonders and we are but minor players in it's spectacular choirs line." ~History of the Earth
Fascinating, as always. I'm a little surprised that you didn't include a link to the "Journey to the Microcosmos" channel in the about box.
And I'm a little surprised our good buddy "Rotifer" isn't here to comment on this. :P
Microorganisms are underrated. I also love how they go through the history of the science and discovery. It's important to know how we came to understand things.
I don't know how you do it but the effort, that you put into these very informative presentations, is remarkable. Keep it coming. I have enjoyed every one so far.
Watch this series. One of the best ever! Easy to follow and excellent explanations. Two hundred THUMBS UP!
These are my favorite series on youtube....and this was such a great breakdown of the blogosphere....
There is this great story about Van Leeuwenhoek about his discovery of living sperm cells. He describes them and made drawings of them. Yet he also describes how he left his wife still panting in bed, so that noone would think he got the sperm cells by committing the sin of Onan (i.e. masturbating). He didn't want to upset his sensitive pious god fearing audience after all...
I will think about this story next time I visit his grave, I live in the same city as he did.
Have you got a source for this? I would greatly appreciate it.
(I'm writing a novel about Leeuwenhoek and Vermeer)
@@aljoschalong625 I read it in a book by Floris Cohen. Dutch title: 'De herschepping van de wereld. Het ontstaan van de moderne natuurwetenschap verklaard'. page 221. The English title is: 'The rise of modern science explained: A comparative history'. It is a secondary source though. So I don't know how it was precisely written down by Van Leeuwenhoek himself.
@@Ardunafeth Thanks a lot, this is very helpful and good enough for my purpose!
@@aljoschalong625 A slightly different and less scholarly mention of the same story occurs in "A mind of its own: A cultural history of the penis," David M. Friedman, p. 75.
Love this channel.
Thanks so much for sharing your fantastic documentaries.
These videos are a real treasure, informative, well produced, and beautiful audiovisuals.
Thank you.
I always go into your videos knowing I'll enjoy them, but it seems like I underestimated how much I'll enjoy this.
Another great piece of work -- thank you!
Talk about a perfect symbiosis between beautiful writing, perfect voicing and classy presentation. You guys are good! I am quite finicky about presentation and quite often I am irritated by some aspect of the text, or the voice, the audio or video, or the pace, or the depth of research (sometimes unattainable to the untrained or sometimes to shallow or pedantic), but truly, you have arrived at the perfect combination, symbiosis indeed. Much appreciated!
Great channel, thank you!
Amazing job, thank you so much for this great series, it really sooths the mind to take this kind of wide perspective. I find alot of serenity watching your videos and of course precious knowledge. Bravo!
This is one of the greatest you tube series of all time. Absolutely awe inspiring.
Thank you for the relaxed theme but educational videos you make!
Thank you for putting in the hours and dedication to create these videos for us. Always well researched and expertly crafted 👏
Love this channel and eagerly await each new video as it is uploaded. Wonderful visuals, narration and background music.
Amazing content as always
Love this channel!
Unbelievably professional, bravo!
I known these things... well... but still really enjoy to watch these masterpieces. Thanks for another wonderful documentation. Absolutely top class.
Good... for you.
Wonderful! I have watched every video of yours.keep doing good things.
Just great stuff, really, I appreciate your videos so much. I always learn something interesting. Thank you.
we love your editing. The photography is amazing. well researched. GOOD WORK!
Thank you for this video
Awesome work! Keep it up!
Archea lives everywhere including on and in ourselves. They were discovered in extremen environments, but we're later found virtually everywhere
Your vids bring me joy, beautifully executed! This will become an artwork!
awesome, as usual!
Such high quality videos! I love this channel
A quadrillion ants.
I guess my brain wasn’t prepared for that number. I had to stop and process for a second.
Almost bluescreened me 🤯😨😱
Amazing and humbling.
Well done... this is the best thing on youtube.
Really (I mean /really/) enjoyed this video. I just did. Thanks so much - I'm off to check out some more of this channel.
thank too much!!
Beautifull! Keep it up and well done!! Greets from Germany!
Thank you for your videos.
Beautiful video!
I was searching for a good video about the categories of life for many years and this is amazing!
3:12 if you know, you know...
For real though, I'm loving these videos. I've been binging them to catch up in the hopes this continues for a good while longer! This and the other channel (History of the Universe, I think it is) are so well-produced and informative. I love it!
Memento mori..
Haha, yeah .. was wondering why they left out that one particular detail of what substances he studied... ;) He truly took a good look at himself as well.
Congrats guys on your first sponsor. Great content again.
Surprising! Best quality content I’ve ever seen for these type of topics, free or paid!
Well done. Ty
LOVE THIS CHANNEL..NUFF SAID!!!!....MUCH LUV FROM N.AUGUSTA S.C
Thanks for information
That was quite interesting, and thought provoking.
Amazing content
Love this channel
Saw the new vid. Said "YES", Liked first then watched. I been subscribed. Y'all and your videos ROCK!
Suggestion: History of the earth below ground to the center of the earth. Earth's code, magnetic field, mineral creation and distribution, caves, underside of continents, source of volcanoes, underground water, mantle circulation, and especially life below ground. Estimates are that the deep earth (below the top few meters), contain more biomass than life above ground and in the ocean. We mostly ignore the history of everything below ground, except when significant earthquakes hit, and even then we don't pay attention for long. When talking about continental plates, we usually only pay attention to the surface of the plates.
The quality of these production is great. it's not dumbed down and it great at explaining quite complicated topics
I really like you mentioning who discovered what and when. The history of discovery.
Dont even have words to appreciate this magnificent work. I bow to you.
Outstanding.
Incredible content
What a fantastic bit of knowledge, your expression and use of language is beautiful.
Awesome channel.
Stunning video, well constructed and put together with care.
As with all things in this genre, more research and more discoveries will add more pages and maybe more chapters to the book.
“Plants still make up more the 80% of all the living mass on Earth.”
That was a wonderful thing to learn…thank you.
Amazing content and your voice is so melodic and interesting
Super stuff - thank you. Where do the viruses fit in with all of this is something that it prompted me to think; are they a quasi-life and how do they relate to the kingdoms discussed in the video.
both virus & prion entities are escaped 'machineries' sorta...
Think of viruses as broken fragments of code. DNA and RNA write the "code" which tells our cells how to make new cells and all the parts of our body.
Just like computer code, if you cut and paste an incomplete segment of code, it might cause problems, not function as intended. That's what viruses do. Cells pick them up and read them thinking they are reading proper code, and they follow the instruction but the instructions are a mess and things get messed up.
You guys ROCK!!!
Great video thanks :)
Another great episode of this channel. As always topnotch quality like National Geographics in their heyday. Please keep on the good work. Thanks a lot for this video...
Thanks for the content
Greetings Loraine 👋👋💕
Very simple so that many can follow the chain of events. Worth watching!
Congrats on the sponsors!
Last time I was this early, I was still a sperm cell.
Also, memento mori.
Good vocabulary word: memento mori.
You were never just a spermie bud, those short-lived suckers need a lady cell to hide in, and she had the other half of what was needed to develop a big, beautiful boi. The word you need is *zygote.* Co-conspirators win most of the time.
ps: death allows new minds to come up with new stuff. As a crusty I know I'm already wasting oxygen (mostly). IOW death is vital to the success of life.
@@peterclark6290 so basically for the last part you're basically saying successive generations stand on the shoulders of previous generations?
@@peterclark6290 Also, you're correct that we started out as a zygote. I have a human anatomy for dummies book right beside me.
@@StaticBlaster Absolutely: the really productive time for the human mind is the period after the myelinisation starts, which is why most genius declares itself aged 25.
Wisdom (40+) although valuable is restricted to the understandings mastered up until the brain has realigned those thoughts (a superhighway is a good analogy) - however that brain becomes more impervious to new concepts.
Death removes the decaying wood.
(2) I'm so delighted you can make good use of the 'for Dummies' series.
3:58................
I loved these videos well done
Thank you.
Thank You!!!

This is so incredibly gorgeous! How do they keep doing it, episode after episode? Everything from the fantastically voiced narration to the wonderful video.
They’re an amazingly talented team. We are all so lucky to have such high quality educational videos for free
Excellent content. Love that I can learn while winding down after a long day. This is my "me" time.
First time I've seen your channel, I liked it, I subscribed.
I stand in awe in front of science, I feel very lucky that I can understand very tiny part of the natural world!
Top notch content. Should b in the millions of views
