God, if this man goes, it's really the end of an era. There is really no one else who can communicate the awe, the wonder and the love of natural history like David Attenborough.
😺 What a privilege to see two of the most erudite people alive today. They have given the world so much to marvel at, as well as offering wonderful explanations of life and the universe. As a retired educator, I would hope that their intellect is never forgotten.
Gabe Thornes such a lame argument. English a simplistic shit language . Be a multi lingual. If you couldnt understand the crux of my phrases then you are dumb
I agree Charles Darwin is very considerate and humble in his writing - in the Origin of Species, he never claimed he was right about something, he is just stating his observation. He’s my favorite scientist. And a true definition of scientific thinking. I wonder what he would think of CRISPR
What a fantastic video, with two of the most beautiful minds today. I treasure them both and it is sad to see this video has so few views, for such a meaningful topic of discussion.
Currently reading On the Origin of Species by Darwin for the first time. Darwin was the quintessential scientist. "Enormously considerate" (as David Attenborough beautifully puts it), but also an ingenious critical thinker very much ahead of his time.
"Luke ... I am your father!" David and Brian are the worlds most beautifully quantum-entangled humans :) Massive respect to both of them, and it's such a privilege to see them talk to each other
POLICE MATRIX I’ve been watching him all of my life and my parents have watched him all theirs too! He has inspired so many people to learn about the natural world and no one else has been able to make an entire nation aware of the planet around them. He is by far one of the greatest people living and many would agree with me
Reanne_Michelle he's an actor at best, at least he's started giving credit to the people who do the hard work, and just because something is popular doesn't make it good or deservant of praise
To find out ore about Charles Darwin, take a look at our Google Arts and Culture exhibit: artsandculture.google.com/exhibit/people-of-science-charles-darwin/MgKy_mjdhQbhLw
Konrad Łapin David is absolutely aware of Humboldt, in fact in one of his videos he talks about the Humboldt squid, and how it got its name. David is fascinated by any historian, or natural philosopher. Humboldt is one of his heroes.
There is a striking connection in nature that I have never heard mentioned before, between two characteristics among animals. All big brained animals (the big whales, the big primates, the elephants etc.) has a very slow reproductional rate, spending years at nurturing (usually) just one offspring at a time. Birds normally have bigger brains than equally sized reptiles, and spend more time nurturing a fewer number of offspring than reptiles do (who usually don't nurture their offspring at all). Mammals normally have bigger brains than equally sized birds. They/we spend more time nurturing (often) a fewer number of offspring than birds do, and there seems to be a clear connection in nature, between brain size and the investment in each offspring. This investment comes in the form of care and if there is a major driving force, behind the evolution of increasingly bigger brains, I belive it is care. As the brains grew the ability to care for the offspring also grew, and to me it seems plausible that it has caused a self strengthening effect - among many different groups of animals.
It's also a matter of necessity. The reason human babies are so helpless is because their brains are *far* from fully-formed, because a bigger head can't fit through the birth canal. Simple as that. But the investment this imposes on the baby's parents and extended family is outweighed by the benefit of that brain once it's grown.
I like prof cox. He comes across and explains things really well. But you can't argue the fact that he has not came up with any of his own theories or equations. He lives on the shoulders of giants.
Anyone who likes a little music with their science, take a listen to "Nightwish, The Greatest Show on Earth". Its the story of evolution & includes excerpts from Darwin & Richard Dawkins. Its from an album thats actually called "Endless Forms Most Beautiful".
Yeah Sir David is not a man of god but of reality and the natural world.. Besides God cant even save a boy being raped in church hows he going to help Davids health?
I’ve always backed Charles Darwin’s theory on Origins Of Species, especially understanding organic beings origins on earth. But question is what’s human story & our descent?
Alert. Yesterday I saw A panel interview of Scientists and Elon Musk talking about the comming AI catastrophe . Last week I saw a radio interview by Richie Allen of Barry Trower . Tonight I connected the dots if Ai gets control of The 5 g network ,this is where the catastrophe might happen . We have no time to lose with this.
You have to write a paper titled " Forensics of the Cosmos ' . First let us define things. Cosmos are the entirety of the known and unknown of the place we live or exist. Superficial definition though to understandable level. Everyone knows what is a point. A point is something like a dot. To represent something we need a point. A group of points sequentially aligned is called a line. Alignments can be in any form. And names are given to each type as straight line curved lines and others depending on the kind of patterns they follow. And so on..
Patterns create complexity depending on orientation though assuming continuity and non continuity. These patterns when they are visible makes contours and if they are invisible they seize to exist. The mix between the visible and the invisible appears to be moving or not moving on how they overlay. Something like a picture when you see them from different angels. When you differ the angle or the orientations from zero to one full circle we get a frame. Now moving along a sphere we get a movie. This is the three dimensional hologram. Now if we go to the next level of the circle or the contours are different over the surface of the angle we might see a different hologram. The same illusions can be created when we see the objects of the hologram from a point inside the hologram and vary the angels of the point. This is what we observe in the place around us. So if we take a complete map. .. So the cosmos is a hologram and that is what we see and understand. That is the first step towards understanding the cosmos. Now other definitions comes into play like what is a black hole in this pattern. Then what is a universe and what is a multi verse. Then what are galaxies. Each represented as a part of the holograms and the specific patterns they create.
Cox was on this morning talking about surfing and getting video footage.... When holly asked him a science question about the causes of the wave, he couldn't answer it..... What a shock
Yeah. Because being a scientist immediately means you're an expert on everything and anything. Oh wait... That's a Hollywood scientist. Maybe next time try asking him a question on particle physics?
The interview you're talking about they were talking about a river in the Amazon and a guy that sits around waiting for a tidal wave that he surfs up the river. Holly asked "How often does it come?" NOT what causes the wave as you suggest. He answered explaining that it happens when the Sun and the Moon are aligned and he said he thought it was around once every couple of months...so he not only answered the question, he gave more detail than was asked for. I'd suggest you either clear your ears out or fix that selective hearing issue you seem to have.
And to think such fellers began from primordial d.n.a. that defies the wit of any human to design with logic.Only through guess work.Thank you Lord.All glory to you not us!
Ode to Sir David Fairy flies and scallop's eyes are small, there is no doubt; but set beside your 'wisdom', sir, they tower and they shout: "Go back to school, you dodgy fool-- learn all we have to tell! "Perhaps you'll bless our Maker, sir, and save your soul from hell!"
And to think that neither would claim the logic or intelligence to produce a single strand of d.n.a molecules to form their most distant ancestors..All. Praise rather to The creator of all things before the realm of Time.
With respect why are the "scientific" evolutionists always given to expletive and hateful defence mechanisms?A straight forward specimen of ape to man or any other creature would suffice to close all argument.'No contrived artists impressions.
thats because its text on a screen it makes no noise, the voice or lack of one is all inside your mind foolish little boy. Did you get back to me over sudden stratospheric warming? they must have forgot to include it in there climate models :D
