I like how it shows Spears fathers eyes as red like the Tigers, his dad was more animal than man and Spear inherited all his raw power and primal instincts.
Spear becoming cheif of his people tells me that him, his wife, and his two children were the only survivors left of his tribe. That just proves how savage his home truly was and also how strong and good of a survivor Spear was for being the last survivor of his race and keeping his family safe for as long as he did.
Everyone is talking about how animalistic Spear's father is- can we appreciate how HUMAN and similar to Spear he is? That very brief moment of tenderness between Father and Spear before the attack, and how he was up like a shot from under that smilodon the moment he saw Spear in danger- that felt powerful to me
The father downed 7-8 of them with 1 assist and 3 kills from child spear, if spear was grown had fang and his father plus his children he’d have a terrifying clan.
I'm not sure why but seeing this comment made me piss my pants laughing. I think it might be because I did not expect to see Boondocks mentioned in the same breath as Primal
One thing I don’t think people get about this series. It’s not just about “survival” what makes spear special is that he is a protector. When we went from just surviving at any cost. To protecting the tribe at any cost that’s when we were primal, but had become human. Throughout the series that’s what spear does he protects
TLDR - Apparently the rest of clan lack the basic common sense, self preservation and human instincts required to survive. Spear’s dad had all these things, modern day humans have these things as well. But apparently these humans are the “I made a mistake how do I delete” of evolution because apparently they incapable of basic survival. No wonder they went extinct, Spear and Spear’s dad must have been doing all the hunting and protecting. I don’t think that excuses the entire rest of the clan not doing shit, they may not be Neanderthals but they should still be capable of I don’t know, running away or hiding from the danger? (Didn’t see hardly any of them doing that) Or you know fighting back? You mean to tell me that all of them lost basic survival instincts???? Some of them look more ape then Spears dad and yet they just stand there not even trying? I definitely agree on why they went extinct, because apparently that means that Spear’s dad and possibly Spear, where the only people getting food, defending the clan and in general doing anything useful. What in gods name did any of these people do if they freeze up at the mear sight of danger? I doubt they were very effective at gathering plants or water I’m assuming (If they did that) and they certainly don’t seem smart either. For someone more ape than human Spears dad shows more intelligence (Apparently he’s the only person there who understood that spear=kill and that freeze = bad and literally basic common sense and self preservation), love (His care for spear), dedication (protected everyone), self preservation (I say this because he didn’t lie down and die when things got tough) and determination than the entire can combined.
Right at about 2:30 you can see what’s left of spears dad after the attack. Also the way this group of 5 or so nearly 1000 pound cats attempt to eat the tribe of people alive (which no cat ever does with prey) should tell you how harsh things are not just for humans but predators as well.
Lions commonly eat their prey alive They often don't bother inflicting a neck or spinal wound when in packs So plenty of their prey get eaten while still alive
@@dumbaccount8267 You know what I actually forgot about lions but just curious, don’t lions do it for the same reason the sabertooths in the video are, which is because of how competitive it is where they live???
@Jared A. I usually forget that lions do things a bit different from other cats too lol. I don't know the exact reason, so I don't wanna spread misinformation and say that's correct, but it sounds like it could be right.
@@jareda.244 I mean lions are the apex predators of the African savannah so they don't really compete with other predators that much. They literally chase hyenas off their own kills to steal them.

@@marianomercado6284 Its still looks like it is some autistic cavemans, no stone throwing or trying to run or even hiding when predators come to eat them alive
Damn, Trini and her sisters ate good but at least Spear’s dad put up a valiant fight. And even as a kid, poor Spear couldn’t escape seeing his family get destroyed.
I think Spear is actually a 50/50 Neanderthal / Homosapien His father is clearly substantially different than the other tribesmen, looking far more animalistic and whatnot- whilst they moreso look like tribal humans. Since Spear's father is portrayed as more animal than man, it would make sense that Spear inherited his animal instincts and rage from his father (who is a Neanderthal), whilst obtaining his human like qualities from his mother (who is likely a Homosapien but not shown in the flashback).
Spear : Wait, we can't co exist and become allies, we can adapt and survive together. We have lost too much and we have so much in common. Let's be civilized and think outside the box for a moment. Spear Dad. *Monkee Ooga Booga*
i sometimes wondered why didn't any of the other cave people help fend off the predators? Like I understand it centers around Spear and his past, but idk just felt off to me to not have anyone else try and fight them.
Redemption for being night feeder slop, and a stuffed figure for educated English dudes to look at. So glad that the smilodon finally got to be shown as the badass killer is/was Also scary because this actually did happen to our early ancestors more often than you’d think.
Our ancestors overcame all living things on the Earth and rose to levels of domination and power never before seen. Earth is too small for us. The rest of the universe is next.
Spear is actually bigger than his dad i didn’t notice the first time i seen it but spear is just broader when he’s grown his dad had smaller arms I believe.
his probably mixed neanderthal with a strain of homo erectus, the biggest homo erectus had twice the bone resistance of ours and were using hand axes to kill larger prey, they killed the biggest mandrils out there 85 kg ones with their hand axes with blows to their heads, their hand axes were for their big hands so even for us are difficult to manage, they dont even used handles.
I love that they added that spear father and a good chunk of his tribe people are homo erectus they all still have their ape like features, fangs, an have more body hair on them. Where spear is the next generation homo neanderthalensis taking on traits that future humans would later have in them.
I love how those other grown men popped out of the woodworks (including one armed with a spear) ONLY after child Spear and his dad ÜBERGRÜG fought off that entire pack of smilodons and ÜBERGRÜG got killed. WTF…. They could have assisted
Rare to see a grimdark *past* . It's cool to see this in contrast to the usual fetishization of the past. I still find it kind of funny that nothing in this world seems to have any sort of self-preservation instincts that IRL cause most skirmishes in the wild to result in a retreat after a few casualties, everything in this universe just fights to the last Ork style!
Se debe decir que... Los otros humanos fueron bien inutiles , supongo que tendrían alguna creencia de que solo pocos merecian ser guerreros o algo así... Pero de ser diferente hubieran podido ser mas fuertes, si todos fueran como Spear se hubieran podido defender mejor
For why the other tribesmen didn't help, i think the vast majority were old. Let's not forget that's child mortality was far high in the early days of modern and ancient humans, so more likely, spear was the only youngling that made it to puberty, hence the rigorous training that spear dad put him through. There has to be somebody to take the mantle and Protectnthe rest because they are frail but hands that can make clothes, tend wounds, make food and tools for the warriors and hunters to trive and reproduce to make more offspring
Cool thing I noticed is that Speers dad is one of the only members in the tribe with sharp ape like teeth. Speer and everyone else have flat teeth with sharp teeth while sprees dad has mainly sharp teeth with large canines.

Ya just like spear until the tigers showed up and like spear turns into beast when shit hits the fan
He's the exact same as spear, escept he has more facial hair really
same. i think spear is half ape and half human in a way, and in the same way his father was 2/3 ape and 1/3 human
The father downed 7-8 of them with 1 assist and 3 kills from child spear, if spear was grown had fang and his father plus his children he’d have a terrifying clan.
I stand corrected spear killed four and the father 8
spear's father wasnt weak, he was just more animalistic and used more raw strenght instead of tatics like spear
Spear learned so much from this fight: he seems far more adept at fighting multiple opponents than his father.

The naked ape, the greatest and deadliest beast ever to walk this earth.

Hell yeah! 🤘 💪
Spear's father had an awesome character design.
The thing is that spear and his father made as much kills posible while others were pretty much helpless which is the reason why they went extinct.
i think his father was more neanderthal or more ape like and his mother and the rest of the clan where more closely to homo sapiens
That's what happens when all of the specie's testosterone goes to a single lineage

Meanwhile all I can think of is why spear’s dad have f$cking creepy glowing red eyes
It's cool
Shows his strength, and his intentions
Just a cool way of showing where Spear gets his raw power and primal instincts, his eyes are red like the tigers aka dad was more animal than man.
Rage, it can cause rose-tinted eyes in real life even
It's way to show that he's angry and it will not contain
What pisses me off is how NONE of the other tribesmen are doing anything… grab a spear and help!!!
Cowards
I love how spears dad had normal eyes but when he gets mad they turn red
it happens with spear, too
Spear was probably no older than thirteen THINK on that
I don’t know why i always come back to this scene
This is WAY better than Ice Age!
Well the sequels anyway

His whole tribe too if all that was left was his wife and kids
Why didn't the other tribesmen fight back as viciously if they were also Neanderthals like Spear?
Not as strong, fast, or brave. There's a reason Spear and his father were made leaders of the tribe
