- It is the greatest climate disaster to ever have hit the Earth. Over 650 million years ago a cataclysmic ice age sealed the entire planet beneath ice and snow, wiping out nearly all life.
In this truly spectacular documentary series, we go on a journey through the history of natural disasters. We'll be investigating from the planet's beginnings to the present, putting a new perspective on our existence and suggesting that we are the product of catastrophe. For each disaster led to another leap forward on the evolutionary trail form single celled bacteria to humankind itself. - Věda a technologie
So cool there's so many geologists, climatologists, and evolutionary biologists in the comments.
This seems like a copy of the same BBC series with the same name, with a different guy narrating it. Exact same clock analogy, exact same sequence of events, no new information.
Recycled of course.
Happens all the time, I've watched history documentaries hosted by one person on the BBC but another when it aired in America, narration mostly the same, b-roll exactly the same, only footage of the hosts on location/narrator voice changing.
It is 😅 Tony Robinson presented the original series
Yep, that’ll be some shit AI voice…….
Love it how scientists come up with this stuff. Nothing is certain when it comes to pre human time. We weren't there. This type of science is based on speculation.
Excellent and informative. I like the question and answer format of the episode.
This is a very good documentary very well done. This is a good film worth the watch
An ad every 4 minutes? Seriously? I guess the uploader thought the video was so boring that they put ads every 4 minutes for the audience to stay entertained.
That's why I don't have basic YT. The ads were killing me with how many were in hour long videos
Pay $11 and that stops. I can't do adds..
The uploader has no impact on the ads you see. Get a decent ad blocker and enjoy.
@@paulford9120the uploader can place as many ads as they want
650 million years ago:
Moon: You chillin' bruh?
Earth: Not just ch-ch-ch-ch-chillin', I'm f-f-f-f-freezing!
I've been looking for a documentary where they talk about earth's wobble and also about how the sahara was once covered in water. Anybody seen it?
Yeah I remember when this happened It seems like it was just yesterday I'm surprised I survived it
20 + years ago when I was in school for geomatic engineering I remember bringing this up with one of my professors as the theory was still gaining ground but he dismissed it,, I love how science Works how it's always growing and checking itself and improving fledgling theory is now General consensus.
💚
Will constantly be increasing my taxes because of climate change prevent another Ice Age?
yes
Undoubtedly.
Indeed so…
Its the ONLY thing that will prevent it
lol, first you deny it's happening, then you deny we caused it, now you complain about the cost to fix it when it would have been cheaper 20 years ago. YOU made it expense, so pay up.
How many years ago was it 😂
I have never heard erratics called drop stones before this program.
They're called Erratic's when dropped on land and Drop Stones when dropped in the ocean. They said death valley was a sea at the time of the Drop Stone so I'm assuming the same applied to the Australia one.
Does the Ocean have orphan rocks dropped off by glaciers? Vent creatures at bottom of Ocean would have survived
So.... We don't need to save the planet. It is very resilient.
Save the planet was always a dumb choice of words. It should've been save the race. The planet will be just fine once we're gone.
The more I read up on Gobekli tepe the more it sounds like the Walmart of ancient times. Or a swap meet I guess. And it makes me wonder what people 12,000 years from now are going to dig up from our civilization and think about us. Like Mount Rushmore. Or the giant statue of a McDonald’s big Mac. Will they even know it was something we ate? Will they even be able to read our language? The thought of them seeing those four faces on mount Rushmore and thinking we worshipped them as gods, I can’t help but fucking laugh 😂. I feel like carving “you been rickrolled!” Somewhere on there. Rickrolled is as much a part of American culture as any president was!
They would likely think the way we think, given humanity can survive another 12,000 years. We keep historical records, future generations will likely have access as we do.
Unless you mean another species, humans are people.
Too many people look for conspiracies or do not take the time to understand anything today. You should read more on Gobekli Tepe.
@@callmethreeone if we end up more like Star Trek sure. But if we end up suffering an asteroid strike and mankind bottlenecks again, no. Almost Nothing we’ve made will survive 12,000 and years at that point. And that is a matter of when not if. they aren’t gonna know what a thumb drive even is 12,000 years from now. English won’t be the same if it even exists at all. You would never be able to understand the English language just 1,000 years ago. Maintaining the society takes incredible effort as I’m sure you’re aware of. If humans disappeared, the land will take over and nothing will be recognizable. All bldgs will collapse. Who knows if we’ll ever discover electricity again. Without electricity, none of this was possible. Without electricity or knowledge of electricity you wouldn’t even know what any of the stuff was for 12,000 years from now. But again that’s assuming mankind suffers another catastrophe. Which it will. We all know it will eventually. We’re not an immortal race after all. We’re just very lucky actually.
@@douglasschmidt2869 Progression and regression are two opposite things. Asking someone to decipher a language when you have a primitive vocabulary that may differ from locale to locale, is far different than someone who speaks a structured language with a robust vocabulary and equally as robust record keeping.
You "dig up" a civilization when it is gone, so you can see my confusion in extinction and "bottle necking". If humanity only "bottle necks" you have nothing to worry about.
I do agree, the data so far does seem to show we are very lucky, still a very small sample.
And never cease to amaze me. How they know all this is it speculation and conjecture somebody help me out of here😊
Just best guess based on all evidence, usual thing for past and present
I believe it's all entertainment !
Did you ACTUALLY watch the video?
It's called science.
CO2 isn't the only variable. Period
Wait are there 2 naked science channels because one this rips off is the same BBC series Catastrophe episode 2 again by Naked Science but the original was done 10 years ago.
😊
4 am ??😂
Lol. We are in the middle of a interglacial period of an ice age right now. It will return.
We're actually technically still exiting the last ice age.. But you are correct, they are cyclical.
@MarinCipollina no, they were right. We're in the middle. That's why everyone makes a big deal about climate change. Without human activity, earth would naturally be getting colder and moving back to full glaciation.
@@themanifestorsmind You are incorrect.
@@themanifestorsmindwe still have Ice caps and glaciers away from the ice caps. We are still in an ice age, the planet must be totally free of ice that lasts more than a year to be out of the ice age.
One of the newest and fastest growing glaciers is on mount st.helens, No where near the poles.
Microscopic Slime; we need a flag
pointing greenhouse gasses as the driver for everything is just stupid. the direct effect of CO2 is weak. the argument for anthropogenic global warming requires the argument of strong amplification by other sources. So, let's just ditch the stupid CO2 argument. What caused the current northern hemisphere ice age?
there are two factors: 1) land mass at the high latitudes, 2) warm ocean current to the high latitudes. this increases precipitation, in the winter leads to snowfall, landmass allows snow to accumulate. if sufficient to last through summer, then much of the sun's light is reflected away. Milankovitch cycles only modulate the cycles.
You believe this you will be as far as you can get from what is the truth.
They're calling this part of history the Cryogenian Period.
So do they know why the Earth was dormant for 20 some million years with no seismic activity or volcanic activity?
Not of the scale necessary to break the freezing cycle. This probably necessitated an event like the one that created the Deccan or Siberian traps.
So much bs... 😅😅
Bold statement. How do you know different life would have evolved in the cild. Mighty presumptuous
Let me guess, you are religious right?
@@douglas.wang63 I found ur comment both shallow and pedantic.
Let me guess... u think contemporary science isn't a religion based mostly on hypothesis and theorem? (aka- guess work), LOL. Why do u think they came up with panspermia?... I'll tell u why, it's because they realized that evolutionism was impossible so they had to come up with an explanation of meteorites or aliens delivering life here, but not the idea of a God? because that would be too impossible?!?... Just because ur too brainwashed to think out side the box that they've created around ur mind doesn't mean everyone else is. What a joke!.
Do you even know about adatability and evolution
@@davidlightman372 Religious cranks are the bane of science. That's always been true.
No you are right. God magically created animals and humans out of nothing of course. No you are right. THIS audacious scientist are SO presumptuous but the religious "leaders" spewing tales from books are not.
It's too bad that politicians weren't around before this Ice Age so they could have instituted a carbon tax on folks. They could most definitely have prevented this ice age😅
Or not
I was hoping you were going to say that they were some of the species that went extinct.
@@whereswaldo5740 while they may not have been able to prevent the ice age at least they would end up Philthy Rich
Thing are happening now that GOD told us way way back thousands of years ago.He knew,knows and is the only one that has always been right.Man can't tell you what's for breakfast tomorrow morning.creator or the created.Wjo are you going to rely on for truth and facts.
Time to leave earth for a while okay yall I'll come back down to earth when this is over
Old stuff, recycled.
If earth went into an ice age animals would almost go extinct but some animals will have survived
I think The Snowball Earth, where ice reached all the way to the equator , happened before The Cambrian Explosion even so there were no animals - just different types of bacteria and protozoa.
@@christianhoffman7407 oh yeah I forgot to mention bacteria and other eukaryotic cells and protozoa
Not a single one would survive the conditions portrayed in this video. First, all sea animals would die from lack of oxygen. There is no wave action dissolving oxygen or carrying it away into the deep sea.
Not a single land animal would survive either with ALL of the land buried in a mile of ice. Not a plant in sight. Therefore, no food.
But it's actually worse than all this. The sea being deprived of oxygen would become saturated in hydrogen sulfide from bacteria. Remember, they are claiming 25million years of this ice. The entire ocean under the ice would be full of hydrogen sulfide.
@@christianhoffman7407 What prevented the ocean from becoming hypoxic and bacteria producing massive, massive amounts (over 25 million years) of hydrogen sulfide?
It’s hilarious watching these people talking like this is all fact.
Isn't it called "Slush ice" earth today?
Not universally
What about the water? Where did the H2O come from? Theos collision would've evaporated all the water.
It came from aliens d'uuuuuuh !
@@JoshuahWelshSmith LMAO 🤣. Good one!
human was bacteria😅
What makes you think it DIDN'T
So when we hit the next ice age. What is our government going to do? More taxes to raise the temperature!!
😂😂😂😂
A blatant assumption and assertion of Evolution of the Species
No you are right. All life forms from plants, animals, humans all were created instantly by magic out of nothing in a day by this elusive being called "God". No you are right. This makes more sense😂😂😂
So the scientists that were mentioned in this video were not alive billions of years ago.
So there thoughts while real respected are just a guesstimate.
I don't see there points in the Holy Bible and that should be considered or at least recognized as a possible conclusion.
Just saying, I don't mean to offend anyone.
No you are right. All life forms from plants, animals, humans all were created instantly by magic out of nothing in a day by this elusive being called "God". No you are right. This makes more sense than a slow process called evolution related to climate changes😂😂😂
nice FAIRY TALE
All true, if you had the wit to understand it.
Let me guess, you are religious right?
@@curiousuranus810 Oh the irony of ur witless comment. No doubt u think we magically came from swamp monkeys!?! Can you please be the first person in the world to show ANY proof for "change of kinds"?????????????????, I'll wait for ur answer over the next 3000 billion, catrillion, mega mazillion years and there still won't be any proof for "change of kinds". Grow up! and start thinking for yourself.
🕗🔔🐦
All the faerie tales are in religious texts
Fake science 😅😂
Climate change is just another way of saying weather.
Weather is not the same as climate, you can learn about that in elementary school.
@@przemog88 And, You should learn the difference between "man made" and "made up by man"... or better yet, "man made" and solar influence... Yup, turns out it's the SUN causing global warming... who'd of thunk it eh!?!.
Weather and climate ARE interconnected, but what causes change of both... oh that's right, the SUN.
So you are suggesting that scientists ignore solar influence in their research? Please provide evidence for this claim.@@LightLadd
@@przemog88 I'm more than suggesting that they do this, they CLEARLY are ignoring solar evidence..... where have u been for the past 10 years? what type of 'research' have u been doing?, They proclaim "man made global warming" when it's clearly, scientifically, not man made. The real question here is, what do YOU consider to be reputable "scientific evidence" and "reputable sources" ? Neil deGrasse Tyson, Fauci and cnn are NOT reputable sources, neither are they scientifically accurate. If you're expecting me to site specific scientific journals of specific reports from off the top of my head then ur sht out of luck, you need to start to do ur own research that is not from one single source (mentioned above), I work for a living and can't do this type of research on the office network, however, if I get the time I can locate these specific journals that clearly shows that the sun is going nova and is the major contributor of total solar system planetary warming, that;s right, I said solar system, I'd like to hear from Greta and Mr schwab (aka dr evil) of how my car is causing Mars to heat up!?!.
Sounds like a bunch of crap
Pure nonsense. How many degrees of deception, can makers of films like these, present as fact or science, and still sleep well without heavy duty chemical aid???
No you are right. All life forms from plants, animals, humans all were created instantly by magic out of nothing in a day by this elusive being called "God". No you are right. This makes more sense than a slow process called evolution related to climate changes.
If such a thing happened, it was one of geologists' favorite measurements, "millions of years ago". Generally, they're wildly wrong about the use of that phrase, but in this case, it fits. Earth may have been "detritus" scattered by a supernova, some 20-50 million years ago! It wandered through interstellar space for close to a million years, following that event, before being "captured" by Sol, shortly before Jupiter joined the ragtag circus of planets and debris circling our current primary. That's according to the ancient Greeks, who tell us Jupiter (Zeus) came along to scatter the Titans (Saturn/Cronos, Uranus/Poseidon, Neptune/Oceanus), in the living memory of men. Any other attempt to push "Ice Ages", or drag them into the time of Man, is disingenuously wrong.
Not by chance ....God is the creater.
Probably shouldn’t be too sure about a concept you can’t even spell. (Creator)
God helps those who helps themselves...
Complete chance - god was made up in the Bronze-age.
🤔🫣😱
We are done with religion, it's killing millions of people and taking everyone absolutely no where.
