Recreating Astroid Strike That Killed Dinosaurs | Strip The Cosmos 

This is so annoyingly dramatized but the replication is intriguing

The dramatic zoom ins, the out of context quotes, the heartbeat in the background. Yup, it's an American documentary all right...

I did this as a science experiment in grade 7. Recreating impacts with a slingshot and silica dust, had smilar results. I got a 65% because "it wasn't scientific"

Underrated video

Did this just start appearing in y’all’s recommended?

I can't stand commercial broadcasting anymore. After years of watching normal people convey information normally on youtube, the pompous retar drama, repetition, music, 0.5 second scene cuts, toddlerized narration.... It's literally designed for toddlers like a Saturday morning cartoon. You can only see it if you step away for a year and re-normalize. Then you can't unsee it. Take this information and give it to a PBS SpaceTime or any of the other serious content creators on here, you would learn so much more and be annoyed so much less.

I absolutely love Dr. Schultz and his always-generous use of onomatopoeia when he gets excited about a light gas gun shot.

For reference, the circular disc he's shooting at would roughly represent the entire Gulf of Mexico region. The Chicxulub impact occurred at the tip of what is now the Yucatán Peninsula and was an asteroid about 7 miles wide. So the scale of the disc would fit some of eastern/southern Mexico and the Gulf region of the southeast U.S., along with some of Central America as well.

I tried to create a car crash with my two plastic toy cars. Turned out very different from reality. No matter at what speed they hit each other, they'd just bounce back with zero damage. So drawing from that, I did the same in a real car and now I am typing this comment from the heaven to warn others.

Better title: Cool slowmo video of a fast thing hitting another thing

The only decent video of an impactor simulation

I remember watching this documentary a few years ago!! This gives me nostalgia!

“So what do you do?” “I am THE authority on asteroid impacts!!”

Just another day at work where he gets to play with that huge gun

Everyone: Pressurized Cannon U.S: "GuN"

My concentration: *Ultra Sharp* 1:18 My concentration: banan

Amazing! the way it almost suspended, just hanging so far out there like nothing I've seen! . . . his eyebrows, not the impact

Everyone is gangster until a extinction level asteroid strikes

My computer trying to simulate the impact: *NUCLEAR MELTDOWN*

Thats how it looks like when you throw a rock into a sandbox with all your might.

why is everyone watching this now

Very cool video. Too short.

He spent god knows how much to make that gun, then fired it and said he doesn't think it's what happened 65 million years ago. 🤦‍♂️

Love how he crosses his fingers, arms, legs, all for good luck! Showing even _scientists_ sometimes need that little extra favor.

...so that means that the asteroid almost missed the earth? Man, we were pretty close to not existing at all. Also makes me wonder if we will someday find debris and ejecta on the moon and Mars. Like trees and dinosaur bones :)

Fantastic

Now it's time for a full scale test.

There was supposed to be a Earth shattering KA'BOOM!!!

These videos really need to be longer...

The name 'Peter Schultz' means Rock Police. Too cool!

I would suggest that the dinosaurs were already on their way out when the impact took place. The meteor just sped things up.

omg how did they knew that! amazing

There’s one peace of the puzzle that helped in the destruction of the Dinosaurs that know one has covered yet , as far as I know , with the cold ocean water that was vaporised on impact steaming in the atmosphere , the cold ocean water would be getting super heated trying to rush back in over the molten rock causing hurricanes far bigger than we today have ever seen , hurricanes would continue to form until the molten rock had cooled down . The biggest hurricanes we get today measure category 5 , the categories back then could have been category 8 to 10 maybe even higher and going off in all directions for weeks , nothing would survive no matter how big things are

Porque no recrearon el impacto en agua..

I don't think that the impact of an asteroid like the one in the Gulf of Mexico has wiped out all the dinosaurs but I do think that it could have triggered a chain reaction of many volcanoes, the dinosaurs dying from suffocation and heat, is what can be seen according to the position of the fossilized skeletons.

1:21 is what you came here for.

His eyebrows are an impact event in and of themselves

2:15 did they credit Moses?

Chixulub astorid was really big as big as mount everest and it must have been scary.

We need Destin to meet this man

Just how hard is it to enable auto generated captions?

Tsunamis,heat wave,wind, and thats why dinos died

The area under chixulub was mainly gypsum (calcium sulphate). They reckon the impact released unimaginable quantities of sulphur dioxide into the atmosphere, acidifying it and causing climate breakdown.

the music and voice over reminded of south park. Cue over dramatised picking up of a cup. Brilliant scientist though.

No one: Discovery channel after midnight:

True

There are too many variables to lead to an absolute understanding, trajectory and impact speed is just a couple of those...

The narration is weird, as the dude says 'at an angle' is unusual, yet most asteroids hit at an angle.

zone of death and destruction - wow what a scientific insight.

the second one looks like a Kamahameha haha

I remember like 15 years ago watching a show on Discovery Channel where some guy with a gun like this shot a grain of sand at a block of ice at a kabillion mph and I've searched all of RU-vid trying to find it but to no avail anyone remember that?

Peter's eyebrows, though!

Plus, the atmosphere kept most of the dust and such trapped and it spread out around the planet and such. Too bad we don’t have ‘eye-witnesses.

Burning forests all over north and South America... plumes of smoke and rocky ash that blanketed the earth from the sun for centuries or more.. the aftermath is the scariest event, not necessarily the huge impact

The guy was puzzled that the asteroid was at a low angle like it was man made to begin with.

An ASTROID is a particular mathematical curve: a hypocycloid with four cusps. COME ON DISCOVERY ASTEROID.

Seems like people forget about sulfur deposts

Wonder if the gravitational density is different in that area and could be measured by satellite. Because most areas of that size would be pretty homogeneous rock density wise. An explosion of that magnitude would distort and congeal all sorts of rocks of different densities together like a bowl of Chex Mix.

He needed a $100 000 airgun to emulate what common sense could explain!

Cheesy editing but good information from Doctor Schultz

I have a hard time taking a video about the Chicxulub impact seriously when the OP cannot even spell "ASTEROID" correctly in the video's title....

Regarding editing, since a while there is a tendency to create a "dynamic" view of short-lasting shots, with zoom, fast panning and flipping takes, with the intention to "grab and hold" the attention of the viewer. This doesn't give the chance to appreciate what we see, and in my case, gives a headache.

Didn't it strike the earth in an angle of 60° ?

Everyone knows the Annunaki killed the the dinosaurs.

we need an anti asteroid missile.

Accurate video

NASA Scientist needs a model of the Earth: proceeds to make a flat disc XD (it's a joke, don't take it seriously)

Now thinking about it There will to be some prehistoric fish swimming around there, minding its business, then this asteroid frickin struck at it.

When this gets recommended on RU-vid...

If nothing else, these type of experiments are invaluable in helping to anchor ballistic simulation program source codes.

recreating the astroid strike by making an astroid hit earth

Commentary by Troy McClure.

This, but to classical jazz music.

Greenland asteroid impact

I want a custom built gun to simulate impacts : (

Very intelectal. Now spell asteroid!

i see life extinguished evolution realized if life to continue.... dang stuck getting breakfast soon.... later

I always think it was not only 1 asteroid, was a shower of them to hit earth at the same time

This really doesnt do this inpact justice. Upon impacting just the atmosphere first, the sound (ear drums annihilated, glass broken 3000 miles away) , the release of thermal radiation (instant igniting of clothing, flesh, oil), the preasure wave and velocity, brightness, all before even impacting the ground sea. After impact, the super heated ejecta thrown up into space, the super heating of the atmopshere causing instant forest fires hundreds-thousands of miles from ground zero, rather powerful storms/hurricanes due to the immense heating of the atmosphere and water upon the ejectas ballistic return to earth. Than the fires possibly put out as the preasure waves radiates out at hypersonic speed (closest to ground zero), and supersonic speeds further out leveling any man made structure, and the earthquakes...then much later on the tsunamic comes and drowns everything lmao. A true hell on earth for the area thousands of miles in diameter from where it impacted the crust. All of this happening within the first 20mins of the meteor penetrating the atmopshere. I love deep impact (Armageddon sucks) but golly its laughably unrealistic-more so than the average hollywood big budget boondoggle. Anyway, its truly hard to grasp the deveststion that would occur so quicky and over such a large area of the earth.

Made the dinosaurs go extinct and no other animals...lmao

This was a 2015 video so they didn't know as much about the impact as we do today. The accepted theory today is that the Chicxulub asteroid hit the region at approx. a 30 degree angle.

In startalk Neil DeGrasse Tyson said that all craters are the same shape no matter the angle. Who should I believe?

12,000 mph is fast, but I just saw another videos saying the dinosaur asteroid hit the earth’s atmosphere going 60 times the speed of sound. Far, far faster.

So there could be dinosaur remains in space somewhere traveling more than the speed of sound..?! 🙄

The asteroid that theoretically killed the dinosaurs.

3:48

I want to trim his eyebrows so bad!

Can an impact like that push earth out of its orbit?

They should have put water ngl

1:54 But some dinausors live thouthands of miles away, on the other side of the planet, how the impact affect them .. Me: They died when they heard the news 😁

Bananas ate 1:18!

oh not that guy.... he's way too dramatic for this........

1 hundred million dollars of equipment to try and work out what happened a billion years ago... go figure??

The real asteroid fell at the angle of 60 degrees, not 90

Interesting science here, however the overzealous and overproduced theatrics from the TV production staff is beyond terrible.

end of the video..so is death and destruction.thank you..some news.

Read another story Elizabeth.

Still doesn’t explain what they’re attempting to explain

Wait. Wait. The researcher says it’s like a nuclear explosion 💥. Wait a minute. It’s a bit more than that. Y.es, I’ve researched it, It’s definitely more than that. About a billion times more than that. Wait, Yes, a billion times more. And I’m not being funny, but what has a sand box got to do with anything. We are talking on a scale that’s a billion times bigger right. Is it me or does all forces apply at any scale. I mean working with miniature you need to slow down the film Ok. So that means you need to slow time. If you slow time then the whole experiment is incorrect. The only simulation is with a computer and I’m sure they had them in those days. I’m not having a go, It seems strange. Almost like, I don’t believe in CGI I will make my own special effects.

Could of made the same experiment with a sling shot an a bucket of sand. How much did this ridiculous machine cost. Totally unnecessary.
