A ruthless murder was committed! Someone killed the dinosaurs and we have the murderer! Witnesses say that an Everest-sized asteroid hit Earth, devastated the planet and caused a mass extinction. A simple, fascinating and convincing explanation. Or… is it?

"Dude... you've seen 'Chocobos,' right?"
We eat them, or keep them for our amusement. They are definitely a joke to us.
For those wondering, the most likely source of the next flood basalt eruption will be the same plume that probably created the Deccan Traps: the Réunion Plume, currently located beneath South Africa all the way to the East coast of Madagascar. It’s one of the largest subterranean structures on Earth (possibly dating back to the beginning of Earth, maybe even caused by the theorized Theia impact that formed the moon), and currently it’s pretty quiet. Small plumes branch off of it to form individual active volcanoes. However, it has a massive blob of magma located beneath Southern Africa that would dwarf the Deccan Traps and rival the Siberian Traps in size if it ever managed to surface. Luckily for us it would take tens of millions of years at minimum to do so. So y’all can sleep soundly knowing that we probably won’t be seeing fiery volcanic doom within our lifetimes! Probably.
To rival the siberian traps would make an incredibly devastating event, considering the permian extinction wiped out a little over 90% of all life.
95% to be precise
@@rogaldorn2312 yep, hopefully we'll have achieved spacefaring civilization status or the ability to control Earth's atmosphere by then though
@@Nadiki if we didn't achieve it by that point we probably have been long extinct.
@@Cell_lab_tutorials iirc that was for the oceans. Life in general was around 90-91%
As an Indian, I sincerely apologise to the dinosaurs.
yeah , 😂😂. we do apologise for everything.
XD
but more importantly we should be asking for our cut on all that oil money

@@manikandan1111lol
this is why kids practice the floor is lava

They still have fresh memories from past lives.
A deeper video on the Permian mass extinction would be really interesting.
Large drops in oxygen levels, mass desertification, ocean acidification, the devastation of basically every single genera of living thing (not even the *insects* got through this one without getting hit hard).
When scientists call something 'The Great Dying', you know they're being serious.
It’s definitely the most interesting and mysterious
The desertification was probably largely a consequence of all the continents being in more or less one group. Most of the interior was a LONG way from a sea, from which the atmosphere could pick up moisture.
I wonder what the configuration of MORs was like, and if that contributed to reduced oceanic oxidation?
OTOH, the interiors of the oceans would have been a long way from mineral nutrients, in the same way that most of the land was a long way from water.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the lensing effect. The fact that the Yucatan impact was almost exactly on the other side of the planet to the decan traps, would mean the impact shockwaves would be focused on the decan traps, rupturing the crust and sending the traps into overdrive.
Except the Earth's core stops such sesmic waves - nor do they travel in a straight line through the mantle. Besides, the deccan started erupting hundreds of thousands of years prior to the impact. The Earth has seen plenty of LIP's (we even have an active one today in Iceland) without cosmic intervention. The deccan is by no mean an odd case, nor the largest LIP volcanos in Earth history. Some are connected to extinction event, but most are not.
Maybe it really was Chixulub
@@Cell_lab_tutorialsbased cell lab pfp
@@PaleoEdits What about P waves? Don’t those just speed up when they hit the core?
@@wundurrThey don't speed up, but they travel faster through liquids (such as the outer core) than solids, yes. Still, the timing between the impact and the start of the eruptions is very off indeed.
Dinosaurs: We made it through the the storm.
Asteroid: Nah not really.
Lol
Was that double "the" deliberate?
The dinosaurs really got spitroasted by volcanoes and a meteor.
@@elslfdsoiudhd5384🤓🤓 uh actually
You do realise that there are nearly twice the number of dinosaur species today (we call them birds ; they are dinosaurs, in the same way that humans are apes) as there are mammals. 11000+ versus 6000+.

I’m literally sleeping over those Deccan traps. I live in the city of Ballari near historic city of Hampi, in the middle of Deccan plateau of southern India . We have these massive continuous granite hill ranges, but I never imagined they caused the mass extinction!
Well, at least you would not have to suffer long if the awake again.
@@molybdaen11Truthfully, they wouldn't have to suffer at all. Most likely, if they were found to be ready to erupt again, it would be after any of our lifetimes.
As Kurzgesagt said, the beast is slow. And us humans are very, very fast.

It's wild that _anything_ survived this period
TESTAMENT to the perfect adaptability of dinosaurs that they survived a divine symphony of impossible calamities lasting hundreds of thousands of years. Dinosaurs were so potently perfect to nature that it took a virtual war of the heavens to humble them down to birds a still pretty badass species. There's no way in any universe humans would have evolved without this. This may be the only hypothetical universe humans evolve because how insanely improbable is all of that occuring.

As somebody that fears tornados and their bigger relatives, a storm so big it rips a hole in the ozone layer is just terrifying to me
I can relate on a personal level. My worst nightmare’s always inc tornadoes
Well, thanks to man made climate change, storms and other extreme weather events are getting and will continue to get more extreme and frequent, but this is truely next level. I wouldn't wanna be around if such a monster storm formed (probably wouldn't survive it long anyways), but since we now monitor the Earth pretty closely, we can sleep relatively safe and sound knowing this won't happen in our livetime
@@l-dogtheman1685 See the truly terrifying part is current projections don't put that on the time line but they do put the giant murder storms as almost inevitable. This is one of those issues that being educated on makes it scarier, the good news is comically hyperbolic, the bad news is only ever the tip of the iceberg. Hurray for nihilism!
Even global warming and 185 mph hurricanes seem like child's play compared to what the earth has already been through.

This is somewhat hilarious because the Deccan Traps were one of the prevailing theories for the extinction of the dinosaurs before the asteroid impact theory was proposed in 1980. It wasn't until evidence of the impact was found globally in the geological record (the K-Pg or K-T boundary) that the Deccan Traps were largely dismissed as the cause of the extinction of the dinosaurs, and yet about 40+ years later, evidence is suggesting that things are still not so cut and dry.
On a somewhat related note, it wasn't until I read about this in the book "T. rex and the Crater of Doom" that I realized that the asteroid impact theory of extinction was a relatively new theory. As someone born in the 1980s, the asteroid theory was what I was taught and I had no reason to think that it was published only four years before I was born. The Chicxulub crater wasn't even discovered until the early 90s. Wild.
Yes I remember learning about the asteroid theory and there being excitement that a crater had actually been discovered.
I'm an early 90s kid and yeah I thought that much of what we think we know on the matter was at least 40-50 years old by the time I came into the picture, not like 5-10 years, that's insane. Props to the education system for adapting to that one reasonably fast I guess?
Wild indead🕵️
@@Taima When I was a kid in school in the mid-1980's, I saw a Nova documentary on PBS about the K-T asteriod impact theory. When I asked my science teacher at school about it, they had never heard of it and were dismissive about the theory.
I googled "Chicxulub crater" and google had a little astroid fly across my screen and shook my screen with it's "impact"
I'd love to see a video on the Permian Extinction and the Siberian Traps too 💕💕
You know I will say this your channel and the videos that are animated are amazing who came up with the creation of the video ideas and how they look
My favorite part of kurzgesagt videos are the first few hours when they can’t decide on the thumbnail and title
no, they know what they're doing. the first thumbnail/title is made to entice current subscribers. after that, they change it to appeal to the more general youtube audience
@@svkonainteresting theory. What about channels like EWU that change their thumbnail/title 3 or 4 times?
@loveableheathen7441 it is to help with click through rate, Veritasium did a video about it. Most channels have multiple titles and thumbnails and they see which one does the best.
@@loveableheathen7441 Pretty sure that's a youtube feature now, to automatically show different thumbnails to different people so that the creator can choose which one to pick by looking at the data.
@@loveableheathen7441 That guy is wrong. Many big youtube channels do this for algorithm purposes. CZcams lets you choose multiple thumbnails/titles and sends them all out to different people for a while, so that you can then pick whichever one gets more clicks as the final one.
You should do an episode on traffic patterns and like how traffic jams start in cities and on freeways and such. It’s a pretty interesting topic with a lot of research behind it
That hoenstly sounds pretty interesting

@@JoyLovesHollowKnight it's a pretty bad video that gives a very condensed overview of it. His "solution" of automated driving is also complete bull, like it's been disproven decades ago that no matter of car infrastructure will ever solve traffic. The only answer to that is railway
@@juannaym8488 he never said that the solution to car traffic was the manufacturing. He never actually gave a solution at all, just pointed out that it could only be solved if every single driver was perfect which he acknowledged wasn't a solution at all.

Kurzgesagt try not to make me more terrified than ever: Impossible
Even if the Deccan Traps caused a lot of devastation, it's very likely that the asteroid was the main culprit since we have found mummified dinosaurs killed exactly by the asteroid, so they actually survived until that point.
Yeah, I remember a dino documentary from years ago that acknowledged that biodiversity was really low by the time of the impact, which is why T-rex basically occupied every predatory niche In what would North America over its lifespan.
I like the asteroid as the final coup de grace in a slowly dying environment the volcanic gases slowly strangling the planet over millions of years, while the asteroid became a sudden and devastating end to 70% percent of life on earth.
Was it the AIDS or the COVID? Having both simultaneously did not help.

This is my favorite Kurzgesagt video
I love the animation and how they explain it in such detail, it fits perfectly with the animation.
The scariest part is at 3:01, where the CO2 Emissions of ONE year aren't that much smaller than the Deccan Trap's Emissions for HALF A MILLION years
Underrated comment!
i didnt even think of that when i saw it but holy shit
That was the actually terrifying part
The correct interpretation of that is that volcanoes release very little CO2 before they erupt lava, not "oh no, CO2 is deadly poison!"
Oh shit, you're right
The animators for this show are incredible, y'all deserve a Discovery Channel show or something
no, they don't need corporate BS. being a channel on youtube is as free as it gets in terms of what they can do and wanna do.
They technically are but in Germany, the German version of Kurzgetzat is sponsored by the German government.
They are no longer with Funk
Theyre perfectly fine here on youtube. Im sure the majority of Kurzgesagt viewers would say the same.
Maybe not tv but they definitely deserve to be checked and distributed for lazy teachers to put on bangers in class
gotta say the soundtrack for this ones awesome
When I was a kid learning about dinosaurs, late 2000s, the books I read always talked about the dinosaur extinction as being caused by a combination of volcanic eruptions and the meteor impact.
Epic Mountain did an incredible job with the climax of this music. When Deccan Traps exploded at 5:10, the music is just perfect
For real
Honestly all of the music on this channel is underappreciated.
This gives the volcanoes contribution to dinosaur extinction a lot more weight. In school it had only really been described as a LOT of volcanoes for a long time, which didn’t sound as sensational as the meteor. The extra depth this video goes into makes it seem a lot more plausible, and in hindsight, makes way more sense that it wasn’t just the dust and ash kicked up by the meteor blocking out the sun, but all the volcanic gases that were already in the atmosphere
The meteor finished off the dinosaurs that survived the Decan traps because there were mummified dinosaurs near the place the meteor hit proving that at least some survived the Decan Traps
@SomeKindOfDodo it was basically a 1 2 punch, the system was weakened by the traps before the knockout
There were species that survived after the impact, even according to The Impact Theory. The extinction took place over a long period of time that began long before the impact, and ended shortly after. Nobody ever said the extinction was already complete before the impact occurred. @@SomeKindOfDodo
Hindsight-hindu-india get it 😂😂
@@WaterShowsProd Yeah after the impact a kind of nuclear winter happened.

YUP same thought xD
Deccan traps is here💀@@satyasankalpapanigrahi9416
at least Yellowstone is just a single mega volcano, so it would be on the weight class as a hefty asteroid
the Deccan Trap & other mass eruption events mentioned here are different though: imagine if all volcanoes on Earth come to life again, and all of them continue spewing out lava and ashes for decades, centuries or even millennia to come, without stop
I mean, yes...
But also no, cuz there's literally nothing we can do so it's useless to worry.
If you _are_ nervously eyeing Yellowstone, may I recommend Soup Emporium's video about it? It's a bit long, but it'll be more than worth the time if you've even a glancing interest about volcanoes like I do.

Not that this is out of character for the channel in the slightest, but it's always refreshing watching a Kurzgesagt video and being presented with solid theories backed by research, always left up for future scientific debate and consideration. Always just enough to start an interesting conversation and come away with some wonder and existential awe at the history (and future) of our planet.
Each video they put out tells a story and educates like no other out there!..the narrator plays a huge part in this channel's success and deserves all praise
Except the theories aren’t solid nor backed by reputable research.
The Alvarez Hypothesis has already been confirmed as factual beyond a doubt.
This is conspiracy theory meeting radical left wing climate change alarmism propaganda.
@@Ted_CZcamsrThey don’t deserve praise they are spreading conspiracy theories.
The asteroid impact has already been confirmed as irrefutable.
This video is literally the equivalent of saying 2+2 = 5.
It’s just radical left wing climate change alarmism pretending to be science.
No different than the people who say men can give birth and women can have penises.
Except this is kinda not. Volcanism as an explanation for the extinction of the dinosaurs is not a new theory, it’s an old idea rooted in a false understanding of geology that has been time and time again disproven. There is zero mention of the various counterarguments against the theory presented in this video. I highly recommend the book “The Mass Extinction Debates: How Science Works in a Crisis” for a better understanding of the entire history of this topic.
@@stegotops7415this channel is known for pushing out not the entirety of the truth, it has heavy backing from a lot of bigger companies and they use their platform to promote these backers by presenting false or omitting the entirety of the truth.

Because we had sulfur in ocean shipping fuel. This is emitted into the atmosphere as SO2. Which is not a normal greenhouse gas as it only stays up there a few months and then comes down as mildly acidic rain, it also REFLECTS more heat due to this.
Sulphur was removed from most terrestrial fuels a few decades ago. Meanwhile in 2020, while the news was dominated by covid, the international shipping industry ordered a massive reduction in their sulphur in fuel. This was to reduce acid rain, but had the side effect of removing the cooling effect of SO2 from the massive amount of shipping between the US, the EU and China across the northern seas.
SO2 was effectively a global shield to global warming, which we have only just removed. The oceans are projected to go over 2 °C of change within a decade. This is scary subtext.
What is scariest is we as humanity are too stupid as a whole to do anything about it until it is too late. Too many people make too much money to do anything different until its unstoppable.
Lookup what the wetbulb event will be, this will likely become reality in the equator in the next few decades. If you live there, make it a life project to leave if you can.
@@ToxicTurquoise454seems like we are speedrunning it. And if we don't see the end of the speedrun it won't be because of old age.
well, to be fair, it's impossible for climate change to kill us all, but the problem is that at a minimum it'll kill 100 million to 2 billion and set us back decades

Kind of like my farts.
@kurzgesagt
How much water could be stored underneath or inside earth's crust? Could it escape, and if so, what could that look like?
Given how many different "historical records" we have of floods, how likely is it that is has already happened in the past?
Kurzgesagt can you make a video on the evolution of worms.
