This is the best thing I've seen with eye's and understood. I take it for granted that people know all this stuff - but I forget I studied it. I wish everyone did know all this. I think this should be circulated more widely. Well done for making such a resonating video. Honestly man, this is utterly incredible, beautiful, scary AHK - everything! The Music just makes it Perfect. Mesmerising.
@thermalmaximum Hi there. I listed the music I used in the underbar of the video. There are three pieces of music used, and here they are: Efling - Stafrænn Hákon Eindir - Einóma Swedenborgske Rom - Jaga
This really shows the persistence of life, & the order in chaos that is the Cosmos. This is Omnipotently Epic. . Bravo! & the ending! The deceptive cadence. What a cliff hanger, haha.
Exhilarating. I always get excited when I see one of your videos in my inbox. This time there are two! Another beautiful video, thanks for making them.
This was one of the best video I've seen in years. It made me feel so foreign to this planet but also gracious to be a living being on it. I think everything was perfect until the last 10 ten seconds that spoils it. Just leave what it will be and enjoy what we can. There is nothing we can really do if something that massive was to hit Earth.
What a wonderful video, thank you for making it. I had goosebumps watching the last few minutes - a combination of that haunting music with the magnificent, awe-inspiring story of our planet. Am going to share this far and wide. One minor thing to nitpick - could you be overemphasizing the importance of hunting for early humans? Isn't it more likely that a bulk of their diet came from plant life? Oh and, I think this video is IDEAL for a gratuitous insert of the Pale Blue Dot photograph. :)
This was a beautiful video, truly inspiring. We're all just a big family, the branches of our family tree will never end in giving life to new exciting life.
your videos are full of hope and untold beauty. I watch them as reward. The truth is so unbelievable... I cant really be angry with creationist and their simple view of the world. Reality is so complex and deep and mesmerizing, cruel and infinitely creative. And even thou your clips are not original material you have a neck for editing and sound. KUDOS :)
Nice video...gosh i'd love to make this masterpieces but i don't have the editing talent... only an amateur...I was thinking of doing a video with the song "The Beginning is the end is the Beginning" showing the dark side of human history and to promote to let go of violent instincts and to evolve...What do you think...Love the vid anyhow...keep them coming...
Great video sir. I felt like pointing out though that there is an error around 4:00 - mammals did not evolve from avian dinosaurs... primitive mammals coexisted from dinosaurs and both diverged from a reptilian ancestor.
The last seconds depicting that asteroid... Do they have a background? Or are they a supposition of what would be needed to start another massive extinction?
@Branstrom Yeah, that would have cleared up the confusion, but avian dinosaurs were the most notorious survivors of that particular event, so I felt they needed to be mentioned first.
@GaryCancer Thanks for the comment. The bit you are referring to is when I summarise the outcome of the Cretaceous-Tertiary Extinction event, and write: "Notable survivors include avian dinosaurs - later developing into birds - and mammals." Because the phrase "later developing into birds" is between dashes, it only refers to the avian dinosaurs. I could have written that notable survivors include avian dinosaurs and mammals, but wanted to elaborate that the avian dinos became birds.
@jadeisthesky I would question whether vegetarians really meet their needed protein levels. I don't think most vegetarians know the first thing about biology or nutrition. I'd really like to see a study on that. Certainly, I'm not saying it can't be done. But it requires (self)education and planning. Anyways. In vitro meat is something I would really like to see in the future.
i have had the shittiest week in a long time. I feel somewhat refreshed after watching UppruniTegundanna's videos. So informative and entertaining, it's nearly makes me forget that my girlfriend rooted my best made on xmas morning...
@smithichie I think the bigger problem is ourselves. The question I keep asking myself, is will human morality out pace technology as our technology can and is used to violate each other with greater and more subtle voracity then ever before.....
@Phobosuchus1 Just read about that asteroid, looks like the chance is very small, but we'll be able to see it fairly clearly with the naked eye. From NASA's website: "Using criteria developed in this research, new measurements possible in 2013 (if not 2011) will likely confirm that in 2036 Apophis will quietly pass more than 49 million km (30.5 million miles; 0.32 AU) from Earth on Easter Sunday of that year (April 13)."
@cwgauthier This is not true. it is common misconception that vegetarians do not meet their needed protein levels w/o supplements. By eating a healthy and balanced diet anyone can get their needed protein, w/ or w/o meat. Also there is a diff. between vegetarian and vegan. To be vegan you must not eat any animal products, but to be vegetarian you simply must not eat meat. Milk is necessary to infant development (though eggs and meat are not), and it can still be consumed on a vegetarian diet.
Dude. The Kakadu cave painter would have been indigenous Australian, not white skinned. He would have hunted kangaroo and Australian animals, not as depicted. You lost me at 0:29.
@ricetogo I think those last 10 seconds are very, very important. I think the ending minutes carry a crucial message: Is it the end of the road? Are we living times when the human race hops off the ride and waves goodbye? Shouldn't we engineer society so our race would respect our existence and our planet more? Is it okay that the vast majority of human beings suffer from the mental illness of religion and or waste their brains' potential on crap like reality TV?
@smith I agree. But the technology I'm talking about are things like ability of the ultra wealthy to leverage the power of information via PC's to understand how bad ideas will make them money, usually off those of lower education and economic standing. It is the mark of an advanced society to provide liberty and justice to those that cannot demand it for themselves. If the ultra wealthy can manipulate the economy the way they do with no moral reason not to, society as we know it will decline.
damn O__o to go through all that and life still managed to evolved into us...we are fucking lucky to be here. I mean we've won the greatest lottery EVER; consciousness although with so many cataclysms and dangers befalling life on Earth, I'm not too hopeful we'll find life elsewhere :( at least no anywhere near us (in our section of the Milkey Way). Earth seems to be in a relatively stable star system and the planet itself is quite stable, yet even so, life got fucked plenty of times here.
@d3st8Most anyone who has gotten through High School knows a bit about biology & nutrition. And while it is a bit of a stereotype vegetarians tend to be more health conscious people, who do invest time into their eating habits note: I'm not talking about 'frenchfry vegetarians' those people (mostly teenage girls) who say they are going vegetarian, but instead of actually trying to balance their diet they just eat a whole lot of junk like french fries. thankfully these people aren't too common.
