This is incredible! Great watch.

Thank you to Rick and Steve for doing such a thorough job. Especially since it's not like they are really being supervised. They could easily have decided not to make a great effort of exploring. Especially in a cave that they weren't really looking forward to doing and in all the others had not found anything. And while Lee Berger has worked very hard and is an amazing paleoanthrologist, no doubt that the stars aligned for him and is the luckiest man in his field.

Even though i know little about paleoanthropology, its 44mins well spent watching this presentation! Nicely done Mr Berger👍👍

Wonderful discovery Mr. Berger. Will be watching for future update and getting myself a copy Nature.

Mr. Berger, Rising Star has made you a Super Star! and when it comes to the origins of the human species I've always been fascinated.

@jocelinkagan7064 3 года назад

Thanks Lee - that was so inspiring. And how right you are. Technology cannot do it without us getting out there and looking. Awaken our curiosity and go explore. So exciting - thank you.

I'm only amateur if that, and what a journey Dr. Berger's new news has been -- at times fringing tears, at times adrenaline rush. He's so great at spinning things into a succession of climaxes, and how this type of exploration is possible not only in his local area, but globally, and a new door he has opened for generations to come! The teeth... I mean all, but just my amateur view, those teeth! Aren't they capsules with maybe at least one possible fragment of DNA to be found, like they did with Denisovan cave? Innovators push beyond, and that's what he's done! I am also amazed at the physical feat of every explorer, and all the phenomenal people working so devotedly on the ground, under the ground... With my bucket list I'm paying South Africa a visit! I suppose they don't let lay people in, but at least spend significant time there maybe at a museum that has begun. I hope Dr. Berger comes to Minnesota... but I am so unconnected and maybe he's already been here and I never knew it! Thanks World Science Festival for creating this fine video!

Talk about continuing exploration in your own backyard - his team explored more of the Rising Star cave and found multiple new sites of hominid artifacts.

@danielash1704 3 года назад

Yes many places have been abandoned due to budget or war zoned from each of these old sites even the pyramids have still been new.

@WayneBorean 3 года назад

Damn it - when you post stuff like this show the date the video was taken. I wasted a ton of time waiting to hear what the ‘something new’ was to find out that the video was taken years ago, and is of a speech I’ve heard Professor Berger give before.

I may be no paleoanthropologist in this world but I am very grateful for the work of Dr. Lee Berger because he is slowly proving my words to humanity. I have been telling people ever since the mid 1990's that humans have been here a lot longer than we thought back then. I myself have ancient memory flowing through me, reminding me that I was here just under 2 million years ago. In those memories I wa a part of a much smaller form of humanoids, we were quite cosmic and very aware. Now with all of this new proof no one can claim I'm crazy, because now the proof is in the caves!!! Our brains got bigger because of alien genetic manipulations, a truth you will all discover over the next 10 years.

@TuAFFalcon Год назад

Well scientists are people and people can be wrong (in reference to that scientist who said that there were no new fossils to be discovered). Even Einstein was wrong about singularities, fission, etc.

He's been wearing that leather jacket for years.... Get a new one, Lee! And use new jokes for each speech.... the Climbing Mount Everest with a dead parrot.... you've said that in 100 speeches. C'mon, buddy. Anyone that watches two speeches will be like... what a hack. Hey, I'm just trying to help you to not sound like a scripted robot.

@katiekat4457 3 года назад

Mick Obrien Get out of your own backyard of people's lectures that you listen to and you'll hear new things. It's not his fault that you watch exactly the same thing over and over again. I seen him a million times too but I realize that his going on the assumption that you're listening to this b/c you haven't hear the story before. Also he is NOT an entertainer (although he does tell a story well). Nor should any scientist be required to entertain. Scientists' obligations are to be educational. Although It's super great when they are entertainer too. Wow. How spoiled people are these days with the technology to watch whatever and whoever whenever we want to. The joke is on you b/c I'm sure he is going down in the textbooks as being the Father of Fossil Finding in his field of study. He will be remembered for thousands of years. He and people just haven't realized it yet. All the major discoveries to come will have been catapulted from him. And in the future nobody is going to mention that his jokes were stale. And again, try watching someone new.

@katiekat4457 3 года назад

Mick Obrien it's probably his lucky jacket. Plus it has his National Geographic pin poked through it. It could also be his way of dressing up. He might be one of those men that are super uncomfortable when they dress up. After all, he picked a career where you are outside playing in dirt all the time. Anyways. Who cares what he wears?

I'm sure you're very bright, but when someone can't recognize obvious silliness it makes me question their intelligence and social awareness.

where does that leave us the birth of Adam and Eve

@vanessavanvuuren8193 Год назад

We were created to the image of The Creator GOD "i have never believed in religion in its whole but who ever wrote the commandments instilled fear and conscious! otherwise we will live in anarchy. I believe Jesus was a great religious figure and profit but that's all he had even modern day profits do miracles. He died because of jealousy and someone else did not like him to be more powerful. The Bible is a great positive book with lots of history of the people in that times and profits and great legendary tales with deep meaning.
