If you want to enjoy more documentaries by professor Iain Stewart you can head to my dailymotion channel where the copyright policies are less strict. I ll try to upload any videos that are being removed from youtube.
The sole purpose of uploading these videos is to promote the science of geology.
A lot of assumptions about how Hutton’s thinking worked. Presuming he didn’t know about replenishing soils? Assuming he thought god was washing away his top soil? Rubbish and anti-Christian simple logic. Plz stop thinking Christians are so simple minded. But somehow his brilliance stems from debotched nights of drunkenness? That is simple & foolish. Just tell the facts and stop trying to glamorize and cast ideological windows of thought behind these real men’s works.
Neil deGrasse Tyson and his atheist fan club sure are deflated knowing the Mars telescopes data revealed the Big Bang theory was a bust. The universe was NOT created outward😢. Dont forget your birthday is based off Jesus Christ’s death. Think about that for a while smarties.

Very well done, and highly informative. Could have been improved by incorporating maps. Yes, I stopped the episode numerous times to search for maps, but this should have been done by the director. That said, I really enjoyed the information and scenes.
I'm 48 and have seen In my time the info about overfishing is 100% true. People best realize nature is not a commodity to be over-harvested or exterminated altogether. Mankind will suffer greatly if this problem on all levels is not stopped.
As a BSc major in Geology I was aware of the development of the accepted continental drift. However, not some of the names mentioned. For example Wegener seems to have gotten credit for the theory. Thanks for the transcript; I'll have a look at the names mentioned to find out their contributions. BTW, excellent presentation and demonstrations!
Iain Stewart is possibly the best presenter anywhere anytime for this type of thing. Warm Intelligent and low key, he is a complete natural. He knows how it works and he just gets on with it. Top man!
Most people seem to admire Scotlands treeless uplands. I've always gazed at them in horror, a testament to many centuries of deforestation and environmental mismanagement.
42:00 extreme misinformatin here, and not to prove a point of physics, but to create an irrelevant spectacle. The shots of the ball hirring the melons does not illustrate what the ball would do if they miscalculated and it touched his head. It would be painful, and make even break his nose, but as is clear - its lateral movement is slowing rapidly at the end of the swing, and therefore if they were out by a centimetre, it would not impart anything like the force it has at the centre of the swing. There is no way his head would "end up like the melon".
This saddens me so much. Progress built over decades with no thought to the long term ecological effects and effects on the flora and fauna while destroying the beauty of our world. Yes, all the international water crises all end in one place: wars coming over water access.
I have a question I hope someone can answer here: The rolling chalk downs of East Sussex and Kent are exposed at the coast where you can see horizontal rows of flint exposed on the cliffs; yet the downs roll. Why? I know the flints were formed in holes in the ancient [horizontal] sea bed. I read somewhere that the Downs were the last wrinkles of the Swiss Alps as the African plate pushes north into Europe but the flints belie that explanation yet I don't see much in the form of brooks or rivers cutting into into the bottoms of the down in the landscape near the cliffs.. the adjacent land just seems to roll up and down in a very smooth (and pleasing) way.
She is new. I always wonder did they earn it? Ya know, really work hard and sacrifice for the position, or was it just handed to them because of the way they look.
So enjoyed watching this incredibly interesting program! The breathtaking scenery of the Scottish Highlands and the beautiful soundtrack, just added to the enjoyment. The history of our planet sure is a fascinating one!
@@ianhamilton3113 Well, yes and no. Yes = Did you note @AliTDB's (deliberate?) omission of the "?" And his unnecessary capital T on truth. Thus, someone who is so far down the rabbit hole of hilarious creationist pseudo-science that he cannot tell rabbit droppings from bull sh*t. No = The "Is Genesis History?" website is both slick and shop based. It's after his money and that of all the other gullible saps. They are "preaching to the choir" of under-educated evangelicals and they want their dollars. That ain't funny IMO.
So this documentary appears to be more about the person narrating it than it does to be about anything else you've shown more of this guy's stupid face in the first 10 minutes than anything else and that for me ruins documentary
Now I see why our ( and your) John Muir who came from Scotland was such a great explorer and field geologist who figured out so much of our Sierra Nevada mountains and western USA geology he probably knew about Hutton
