      A very well presented pack of Lies, and mis-information. God made the earth and our solar system about 6000 years ago, and all the earth's layers of rock, mountains, oceans, were all made about 4600 years ago from the worldwide flood event. Yes, an Asteroid mage the Gulf of Mexico, and expelled all that dirt north creating the Himalayas and so forth, and other oceans. It also created continents, and Islands which didn't exist prior to the flood, as the Asteroid's impact caused earthquakes and volcanoes. The Earth was transformed as this receding process caused the sloshing back and forth of the waters covering the earth, which laid down layers of silt and dead animals, which we see all around the world today in the layers of rock and in fossils.

    I remember being a kid when the deepwater horizon disaster happened, I remember crying while watching the newsfeeds.. The desperate attempts to stop and deal with the oil, the marine life suffocating and drowning in all the oil.. I'm from a Canadian oil town where we do land reclamation and never understood why they would even risk all this for the oil until I learnt about how much was there, and how valuable it was. I honestly feel like humans would been far more advanced now if we weren't so driven by greed.

      There were speculations that parent company BP ordered its' supervisors to cut operating costs by 25%. As a result safety implementations were bypassed or neglected to meet this parent company directive. Halliburton who was in charge of the cementing and texture at the bottom of the well casing did not disclose defects in the cement being used which was perhaps the primary reason the crude was not contained ?

    The one thing I always see wrong about documentaries about the asteroid strike that took out the dinosaurs is that they always show the strike with the land masses as they are today. With plate tectonics, the land was in a different arrangement 65M years ago than they are now. Most of that peninsula was under water with islands around it that eventually became Central America.

      @bowlampar, so-called "big oil" provides us with plastics; fertilizers; pesticides; pharmaceuticals; gasoline for cars and emergency generators; propane; diesel fuel for trucks, trains, ships, and electrical power stations; aviation fuel for planes; lubrication oils; solvents; glues; synthetic rubber for tires and weatherproofing; asphalt; and paints, among other commodities.
      Practically everything we use or consume in daily life was either derived from oil, natural gas, or has some oil-derived component. For example, cell phones, computers and appliances contain parts made from crude oil. Modern car bodies and interiors are mostly made from crude oil; all industrial machinery and means of transportation need lubrication; and the world would have a difficult time feeding everyone without oil-derived pesticides and fertilizers.
      I should also mention that the electrical power needed to charge electric cars is derived mostly from traditional (and long-lasting) power-stations "fueled" by oil, gas, nuclear and water (from dams.) Power derived from solar is negligible, and the the disposal of solar power equipment (windmills, solar panels, and so forth) is an environmental disaster waiting to happen. Burning wood chips is an environmental disaster in itself; and so is the mining, manufacture, and disposal of the materials needed for the huge batteries found in electric cars.
      The bottom line is, the traditional sources of power generation -- oil, gas, coal, nuclear, and hydro-electric are far more environmental friendly in the long run than solar, and will remain so until dramatically different solar generation processes are invented.
      Many decades ago, I took two college courses in air pollution engineering when air pollution control was in a rather primitive state. The technology has now advanced to the point that burning coal is a rather clean process when compared to its emissions prior to President Nixon signing the Clean Air Act into law in 1970. The largest atmospheric release, by far, is CO2, which plants thrive on. Ask any greenhouse operator.

    Myron Cook did a video about the topographical features of the Gulf, especially between Texas and Florida. There are so many pockmarks between 5k and 8k feet below sea level, so my thought isn't a single asteroid, but multiples over time. That said, it's absolutely possible that the asteroid in question broke up in the atmosphere and peppered the entire region, including land, generating more particulates than a single strike.

    I lived in Key West for 20 years and when the gulf spill happened I had nightmares about waking up with the entire marina swamped in oil. We were in zone A, the worst place to be with the flow of the currents. Day after day I would go out on the deck of the houseboat afraid to look at the water. Strangely, we never saw a drop of oil (shrugs). In general, the Gulf of Mexico played a big part in our lives in the keys. The only hurricanes we ever kept an eye on were ones that went into the gulf because all other paths were not a threat. If hurricanes were a real problem, those little islands would have been wiped out long ago but the big trees remain standing and I only saw one bad flood in 20 years. Came from Wilma after she strengthened in the gulf, and then surprised us by going in reverse and hitting the opposite side of the island which rarely happens.

      It all washed up to us, on the gulf coast of Mississippi and Louisiana. Oil you wouldn't believe giant tar balls as well on the sand. It doesn't make sense it would go down there. Being how close it was to the coast of Ms/La the water gets pushed to shore from there towards us. Also the the tropical Jetstream pushes gulf moisture up into the united States that's what fuels all the rain storms for the country.
      I was in line to sign up for the clean up but after hours of waiting im glad I left. They didn't give the clean up workers safety gear. And there are major lawsuits for health issues and cancers from the clean up. BP screwed everyone they could then and now.

      The Florida Gulf Coast is much better than Texas, much better beaches, barrier islands, amenities, etc.

    I live where the Gulf of Mexico use to be, I find sea fossils all the time. The water where I live is hard from lime in the water. Middle of Texas.

      The oilfields found now on land were, at one time at least, underwater.

    It's disappointing that Nat Geo fails to tell us how much of the typography were seeing is the result of mapping data and how much is creative license.

    My dad's rig was the sister rig that followed New Horizon's around, he was 3 miles from it when it happened, the executives were on that rig, told the mechanics what to do and they messed up the cement mixture, if those executives had not been there pressuring those men to do something they do they shouldn't have done it would've never happened

    21:22 shouldn’t it be called the worst environmental disaster to hit the gulf since the comet?

    How can they describe a 7 mile wide asteroid killing all large dinosaur life on earth, and then immediately go on to say that an oil spill was the worst environmental disaster to "ever happen in the gulf"? Hello?!? All Dinosaurs would disagree.

      It was also a huge environmental disaster to bring all those slave ships here.

    Fascinating & informative. Being English I find the overly dramatic presentation a bit much. Excellent production tho'. I'm curious to know what dating evidence was used to link the 3 different old ships to the same sinking event, same era obviously, but sank at the same time? Pure speculation without evidence.

    Reminds me of the old Underdog Show episode where Simon Barsinister invented a water impounding machine, trapping whole bodies of water into these little vials. He would take the machine to the water's edge, dip its nozzle in, go "Simon says... drink!" and cackle as a whole river, lake, or ocean disappears!
