Human beings are everywhere. With settlements on every continent, we can be found in the most isolated corners of Earth’s jungles, oceans and tundras. Our impact is so profound, most scientists believe humanity has left a permanent mark on Earth’s geological record. So what would happen if suddenly, every human on Earth disappeared? Dan Kwartler investigates.

And don't forget about the 443 nuclear plants on the planet that would simultaneously go into nuclear meltdown.
the large majority of nuclear generators have safety switches that will shut things down, so in reality, they would all silently "die".
@@MrKlausbaudelaire what about nuclear bombs and warheads ?
@@vitoscalita considering they are kept in very secure silos, once left untouched, the radioactive components inside of them (and inside nuclear powerplants as well) will all decay and lose radioactivity over time. Uranium, for example, takes 4.5 billion years to become lead.
@@MrKlausbaudelaire except that the fuel rödd need to be in water , if no water being pumped in then it will eventually go boom
@@alexdavis-mann8513 if I recall, the cooling system of a reactor automaticaly triggers, "killing" the head of the rod. A nuclear reactor is using fission, but fission isn't something ENTIRELY self-sustainable, it needs to be triggered every once in a while to cause the rod to head up, essentialy making a nuclear reactor able to "cool down" and stop working.
For instance, Chernobyl, its still radioactive, sealed inside a huge lead "tomb" after they managed to drain the water that could've leaked into the superheated reactor and cause an explosive expansion.
Nuclear powerplants nowadays are designed to never go BOOM, worst-case scenario is a meltdown that causes a leak of radioactivity, and I think even that have its own killswitch. Hence decades later all we had was Fukushima because of an earthquake that killed the cooling system. Meltdown ensued, no Boom.

*Humans disappear*
Earth: Good, they were starting to get on my nerves
Imagine being an alien flying to Earth after humans went extinct, and then discovering Mount Rushmore.
ha imagine one day finding humans, and being like "OMG WE FOUND LIFE!" then travel back home to get more of your alien friends, but when you come back the humans are all gone.
@Name honestly the aliens would probably still think humans were there tho since statues Mount Rushmore
@@waspman7775 well they now know what our heads looked like
Imagine Mt. Everest, there are tons of rubbish there-
Interesting thought. To make it a bit more interesting, if they discovered Mount Rushmore, or any other remnants of intelligent life that remains, but they discover long enough after we are gone that it is clear no intelligent life has been present for hundreds of thousands of years, they would have to consider the fact that possibly the "aliens" have moved on to some other planet. They would have to consider the possibility that "we" never truly resided here but discovered earth, played around a bit, and moved on. In other words, just like them.
This scenario would be truly terrible for the economy!

@@ghrndez lol 😁
A unique look into a possible future. I was interested in the 'urban rivers' and how they would provide current archaeologists proof of previous civilizations.
One of my favourite books is, ‘The World Without Us, I highly recommend it’. Also I recommend one of my favourites tv shows the documentary series, ‘Life After People’. Because it’s very interesting to find out what things would be like without us. I also enjoyed that NATGEO special, ‘Aftermath: Population Zero’.
“and we won’t be here forever” my anxiety: 📈
To be fair, it would be so much worse if we were here forever. Both in a personal sense (if you're immortal, I can bet that you would be wishing for the sweet, sweet release of death at least a few lifetimes after you would normally have died, let alone millions of years more) and just for humanity to last forever, to war forever, to pollute forever, and to destroy everything forever... It would be awful.
But yeah, my anxiety spiked a bit too, hahah
@@Yohannai not being on earth forever doesn't necessarily mean that humanity ended. The only possible scenario is if a huge climate change happens ,only like this we can completely disappear and still it's not completely sure. If an asteroid hits earth it needs to be huge enough to end humans everywhere ,but in this case it would end earth too,same goes with nuclear war ,if it can kill every single human then it would destroy earth completely,so in both cases earth dies with us. What is more possible is that humans will destroy earth and not the humans dying before earth, unless we die together!
Shiro I don,t think a nuclear war would destroy Earth completely. It would kill our eco-system. But earth has always been there even when it was full of molten volcanos and explosions, life might not, but the Earth will exist.
Um, you won't be here in less than a hundred years. Most of us won't be.
Actually mine went 📉
There’s no way we let this happen! There can’t be a world where the mosquitoes win

“domestic pets will not survive"
that crushed my heart :(
Actually, domesticated cats will be able to survive! Their hunting and defensive instincts are still very much in tact and used. Not sure about dogs though
hob that’s if they can find a way out of your house
I actually think cats would do extremely well. Our buildings and food stores would become breeding grounds for rodents, which would support a large cat population.
@@seankauder9721 only if they can escape your house.. that's the sad part
@@oxiw.608 Yeah indoor cats would be in some hot water if there wasn't an open window or a cat door they could escape through. They can drink from toilets, so water's probably not an issue, but they only have about one to two weeks to escape and find food before starving (except for the cats whose owners dissapeared while preparing, cooking, or eating meat or with an open cat food container).
I’m like: hey this all sounds pretty good . . . OH GOD NO THE MOSQUITOES NO PLEASE
NOOOO!!!
Well at least we don't have to deal with them since we're all gone :D
My goodness I swear mosquitoes are the worst
The mosquito bois can go comm8t non live
Me too but then he said mosquito and since i played Fall out I SUDDENLY REMEMBER THOSE ANNOYING BIG MUTATED MOSQUITOS ackk.
I thought that's what this was! It was required reading for me when I was a freshman in college (I went to an environmental college). Really fascinating read, I would highly recommend!
Ancient man carried the animals and plants he liked, as well as some he didn't like, all over the world. It would have been a very different place without us.
Why is this on my recommended when there is a Corona Outbreak
"...And we won't be here forever"

*"the earth goes dark for the first time in centuries"*
Night: am I a joke to you?
Joke aside, can someone tell my why earth would go dark just because we humans disappear?
@@darkcomet1607 maybe because of the ashes/ gaseous waste
Night: Am I joke to you?
Humans, while holding a light switch: Yeah, sort of.
Jokes aside, I’m guessing they’re referring to light pollution. If every human disappeared, every light would eventually be turned off.
Right now, even during the night, cities can be seen glowing from space. And even if an entire city in one country is shut down without electricity, there’ll be other countries in a different time zone with their lights still on.
So when humans disappear, light bulbs will run out and the Earth will “finally go dark.”
Thanks that makes sense
....lights in cities. There will be no more electricity to power the lights at night..so earth will be completely dark beside moonlight.
Why was that so relaxing..? (as I start planning a bronze statue of myself)
There was a whole TV series about this, it was really interesting.

The most efficient way to control our unsustainable population of nearly 8 billion without ruining the environment would be to release a plague. Release a superbug that is resistant to vaccines and everything. The bubonic plague wiped out over 2/3 of Europe's population. The world's population would be sustainable again if a new plague killed 2/3 of the world indiscriminately.

There is a few animes that explore this concept. Doctor Stone to a degree. Seven Seeds is another. The latter is on Netflix.
I'd LOVE to see these in those post-apocalyptic movies and stuff where they usually just show overgrown plants and no electricity
There is also a fantastic show called Life Without People that covers all these different facets in way more detail.
I like how you guys used present-tense in this one, fits well. Awesome animation as always!
You’re an alien: your people have just landed on a new planet inhabited with strange unintelligent life forms and rich plant life! You’ve been issued a new life on this planet, and have decided to explore this strange new alien world. After a while of hiking, climbing, and exploring, you finally find something that sends a chill down your spine. A towering structure, a mass carving of four beings you don’t understand. They’ve been worn, eroded, etc. and you realize, maybe you aren’t alone here.
Sounds like an interesting film idea!
You sir need to make a book/movie out of this.
Not Today…

MAKE A FANFIC
this will be good for fishing season
There was a great TV series called Life Without People which explored various elements of this per episode. The main take-away for me is how the nuclear powerplants are left. The actual reactors should be safe enough as they will go into safe-mode but the cooling pools where the spent rods are stored will evaporate and this will lead to a meltdown resulting in water tables becoming unsafe for animals. There aren't many corners of the globe where nuclear powerplants don't exist.
