In the early to mid 70s the Denver museum had several rooms of giant insects on display. There were giant dragon flies, giant fly's, giant bees, all kinds of weird insects I had never seen before. And when I say giant, these were huge. We moved in early 1976 and in 2000 I moved back to Denver and I wanted to take my son to see these insects. When we got to the museum, they had removed them all. All of the employees had no clue what I was talking about. I insisted on talking to Sr management and finally talked to someone who had been there since the 70s. I was told they still have them put way out of public display. He said they were told by higher ups with no explanation and that they were not to talk about it with anyone. Now its long forgotten and no one knows. I'm really curious what the real issue is here. The sight of these giant insects have never left my memory.
I have some theory why. 1) Cost. (which i think most likely, i assume the bigger the sculptures, the more expensive they get to maintain even when you just clean them once in a while.) 2) Accuracy (maybe not all of the displayed creatures were totally accurate so they decided to take them down. Or truned out to not be accurate later) 3) Entomophobia. (Maybe too many visitors were too scared after or people refused to bring their kids. Unlikely though) 4) A higher up just wanted them for themselves in their mansion to brag about it. xD

I though about soft body animals first like jelly fish style maybe alot more gruesome then you would expect. Only because the hard shell seems to be an adaptation for defence meaning there was things that could eat though there shell till it hardened enough for them to survive, e.g. soft body poisonous much like when cells attack other cells but on a grandeur scale
Is this video scripted by ai? A lot of the information is repeated 2 to 3 times, and the information density is very low. Apart from some cgi footage theres almost nothing of interest here
They are inferring from structure to function, speculating, straightforward extrapolation... In other words, guessing... But an educated guess... Future evidence might change things... Or might not...
Insects have a passive respiratory system. They have tiny holes in their exoskeleton and O2 is absorbed as their blood flows past them. The more O2 in the air the more they can absorb and the more body mass they can support.
It's amazing to see how many massive changes have occurred in Earth's climate and atmosphere over the millennia, but can finally be controlled by paying extra taxes.
Climatic changes which take place over millennia allow ecosystems and living organisms time to adapt. Changes as rapid as the ones we're seeing right now do not. Destroying the very conditions which allowed human civilisation to arise in the first place .. significantly reducing the time window within which conditions on this planet are hospitable for us and species like us .. is really incredibly stupid.
I've heard it said that if spiders were able to grow to the size of an average dog, they would view humans as potential prey. Megarachne doesn't quite reach that size, but it's uncomfortably close.
Meganeura were featured in the original "Rodan" movie in 1956, oddly enough! Megarachne and Pulmonoscorpius Kirktonensis would prompt me to whip out a flamethrower if they existed in this era....AIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!!
@@BatmanSeRiedeTi Oh, trust me, huntsman spiders give me nightmares! That was not one of the better Miregoji movies, but Megaguirus was an interesting adversary anyway.

@@calebcuyler7135because it proves they're making most of this shit up for the video, where did they get these stats on how high it could jump and run? Those numbers also are obviously made up because no spider on earth comes even close to being able to jump that high and being heavier wouldn't help it. When they're posting shit that was disproven years ago with stats that have no basis in reality it makes it clear they don't care about the truth of these animals
@@calebcuyler7135 The difference is that it lived in water, and all of this info about it making burrows with silk around the entrance, that it had to deal with flooding, could jump 10 meters, etc. is completely made up. This video is just of very poor quality, and shouldn't be taken seriously.
Megarachne is also not a spider. It has been famously misidentified as a spider, but is actually a type of sea scorpion and actually an aquatic eurypterid ❤ it was debunked in 2005

I studied geology in college and paleontology classes were fascinating. So many absolutely bizarre creatures. It’s sad that the non avian dinosaurs are mostly noted for their extinction event. They are so successful in their environments.
Love how the narrator describes megarachne as an ambush spider while the animation shows it chasing down a lizard and butchering it like Michael Myers 😭. Why do these animations of long extinct animals always show them behaving so unnaturally. I know nobodys ever witnessed their real behavior but its not like we dont have modern references
That would be dope as fuck dude , imagine ridding it into the town , fear ye townsfolk! For my trusty millipede and I have come to conquer ye all! Muahahahaha
For the information of viewers, many of the descriptions in this video (if not all of them) are ripped directly from the wiki page for a show called Prehistoric Earth: A Natural History. This show is not a factual documentary it includes time travel and a scripted plot etc etc. You can verify this by reading that wiki on the topics of megarachne or anthropleura and this wiki is not listed as a source despite the script of this video blatantly plagiarising it.
The poop around the fossil and in it's den shows nothing but plants in it... it's an herbivore. It's nest has no other indications of animal corpses or bits? It's passive.
There is a lot of bad information in this video. For example, how do we know arthoropleura was almost blind? Like, almost all our evidence of them is fossilized imprints of their exo-skeletons. Which we think might be sheddings, rather than remains of full corpses, due to the lack of evidence of anything but the exo-skeletal structure in these imprints. There is no way we know anything about its sensory capabilities. We have never even found an actual head fossil. Them being herbivores is also conjecture. One fossil found had a preserved gut cavity. It appears that most of the material in it was likely plant material. However no one is sure what we think could be plant material is, and there is other material present, so it was just as likely an omnivore. If you look for this information the only sources are non academic, infotainment sites, and videos. No source from a university, professional organization, or government body, says we know anything about their senses, nor do any say we know they were herbivores.
They do this all the time, dinosaurs now have feathers and always did even tho the dunderheads the semester prior were taught they were scaled. These people have no clue. Meanwhile, Sasquatch is too far a reach for the academic class. Frauds
So many species of insects in our modern world are millions of years old. I find that exciting! Dragonflies, centipedes, scorpions, and general bugs with exo-skeletons are millions of years old. That's so cool.
We really dodged a bullet. Like we literally could've been born in a time of giant lizard/birds and insects that would have no problem snatching up our young 😨😭
But we had to deal with giant cats like tigers and panthers That’s why children are inherently afraid of a “monster in the dark that’s going to eat us” Because our ancestors were dealing with big cats snatching us away at night, those memories are passed down our dna. Which is why kids are afraid of this
The question I've never seen adequately answered is: We've assumed the oxygen content of the atmosphere was much higher in the Carboniferous period than today but in percentage terms is that actually true? Instead of a higher oxygen percentage was the atmosphere itself denser? If the oxygen percentage as a proportion of the whole atmospheric pressure was only slightly higher than it is now but the atmospheric pressure was significantly greater, that would enable very large insects without resulting in continuous unextinguishable extreme wildfires. Every time the Earth's magnetic field flips, which it does quite frequently on geological timescales, some of the atmosphere can be stripped away by the solar wind, resulting in the atmospheric pressure today being a lot lower that it could have been in the Carboniferous period. Any answers?
The bugs of this period bring back the horror of the insect scene in Jack Black's King Kong movie. It was even worse on the big screens of movie theaters. Insects don't usually bother me, but I was seriously creeped out for several weeks after seeing that scene. 😱 NOT to be shown to young children!!!!!
I call cap on half of theses behavioral descriptions. Scientists being able to guesstimate what they looked like, their size, and their potential diet is one thing, but the more specific details on their behavior feels like pure guess work.
It comes from their poop fossils and the lack of dead animals around their nests. If something won't protect it's eggs and offspring, it's not aggressive.
Most of this is made up, like them talking about the eyes of the megarachne when they would have no evidence of that or claiming it can jump 30 when that number wouldn't be physically possible from an animal with those proportions
Meganeura was a griffinfly, not a dragonfly. It was quite closely related, but Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies) didn't appear until the late Triassic.
It's worth noting that it seems nearly impossible for the giant arthropods to have enough dead trees and foliage to consume, but they absolutely did. During the Carboniferous Era, there were no bacteria that had evolved to break down Lignin- one of the main components of wood- yet. So there would have been an extreme abundance of dead trees everywhere. Breaking wood down in an acidic bath would have been a very common adaptation considering the abundance of such a food source.
@@jejxkxk and you think this why? in another comment they explain pretty thoroughly that the video isn't AI generated, the narrator is a british guy named Cass Mery and the editing was done by them.
@necrochemical5572 No, he mentions twice (along with a third time at 4:15) that Arthopleura lives in the Carboniferous period. - 4:40 and 6:05 he mentions twice that Arthopleura is a herbivore. - 4:48 and 6:33 strong jaws mentioned twice. Get it yet or do I have to find more examples?
I used to believe these theories as facts, but over the years I have begun to have doubts. For example, there is no way scientists could know whether a centipede that lived 300 million years ago was a meat eater or a vegetarian. I doubt that researchers could even accurately date these creatures. I am also uncertain about the accuracy of carbon dating, but I do believe tree rings are fairly accurate. When it comes to stratigraphy, that system could be somewhat accurate, but I still have doubts. We can know these centipedes existed with near certainty if we find a fossil of the creature. However, without a digestive system to examine, we could not possibly know what its diet entailed. We could speculate from observing the modern-day descendants of this creature, though.
You can already fit 1 SCU boxes through the Terrapin's door. Idealy, you should be able to use the doors on both sides. They're both modeled into the ship, our variant just has the opposite side door as a 'wall' so the door is disabled. But it's modeled into the ship. I use mine for cargo hauling. The 16k missions are a lot of fun. I've fit up to 12 SCU in mine. Could probably fit a bit more if I wanted to play Tetris and stack them more. My dream Terrapin variant has: 1) Removed the scanning chair and dish. 2) Placed a smaller chair behind the pilot's seat for a remote turret. 3) Placed a Valkyrie nose turret with S2s ontop in place of the scanning dish 4) Enabled the doors on both sides. 5) Placed a cargo grid for 32 SCU in 1 SCU boxes. This fits and still gives you access to the bed, the bathroom and component access. This would be a fantastic little armored blockade runner for small, valuable payloads. Especially once armor comes online and it can remain safe in NAV mode without the shields up.
It is interesting how the surviving species from mass extinctions seem to evolve smaller in size on this planet. Probably a response to the reduced food sources. Probably happened to humans too.
I agree with you that this is 100% AI. I would, however, like to point out that a lot of video essayists hire professional voice actors for their videos. So its very conceivable for a British dude to be hired to read an American's script.

The movie “Love and Monsters” came out during the Pandemic, and largely got overlooked.
But it is essentially a movie about an apocalyptic Carboniferous period!
Fun flick.
as much as i'd like to shut my brain off and enjoy movies with enormous critters like that, I really just can't when I know that giant insects can't exist today because they'd literally suffocate to death.

Almost certainly. I was fooled for a bit by the human voice reading the script, but after about halfway through it gets pretty obvious.
Eh, it's a launching point to go dig up the full details, preferably not on yt. Like mega being a sea scorpion. You two haven't done research in awhile, have you?

I though about soft body animals first like jelly fish style maybe alot more gruesome then you would expect. Only because the hard shell seems to be an adaptation for defence meaning there was things that could eat though there shell till it hardened enough for them to survive, e.g. soft body poisonous much like when cells attack other cells but on a grandeur scale

It really does beg the question of how they could possibly know that giant centipedes could be aggressive towards each other.

Never felt more lucky to live in a world without these.
Insects have a passive respiratory system.
They have tiny holes in their exoskeleton and O2 is absorbed as their blood flows past them.
The more O2 in the air the more they can absorb and the more body mass they can support.
It's amazing to see how many massive changes have occurred in Earth's climate and atmosphere over the millennia, but can finally be controlled by paying extra taxes.
You best remember it too😅
Millenia doesn't even begin to cover the time frame lol. And those changes took much longer than a couple of hundred years to occur.
@charlescoe226 There hasn't and won't be massive changes in the climate over the last or next 200 years. You are being sold lies.
@charlescoe226 oh you sound like a scientist.. I trust your overinflated opinion 😂
Climatic changes which take place over millennia allow ecosystems and living organisms time to adapt. Changes as rapid as the ones we're seeing right now do not.
Destroying the very conditions which allowed human civilisation to arise in the first place .. significantly reducing the time window within which conditions on this planet are hospitable for us and species like us .. is really incredibly stupid.
I've heard it said that if spiders were able to grow to the size of an average dog, they would view humans as potential prey. Megarachne doesn't quite reach that size, but it's uncomfortably close.
if spiders could cooperate like ants we'd be dead
That's why I don't spare them, they wouldn't do the same even If they were dog sized
Meganeura were featured in the original "Rodan" movie in 1956, oddly enough! Megarachne and Pulmonoscorpius Kirktonensis would prompt me to whip out a flamethrower if they existed in this era....AIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!!

Megarachne was not a spider. It was misidentified. It wasn't even an arachnid. It was a eurypterid, aquatic athropods.
Tf is the difference we can argue and say crabs are the spiders of the ocean they’re still distant cousins
@@calebcuyler7135because it proves they're making most of this shit up for the video, where did they get these stats on how high it could jump and run? Those numbers also are obviously made up because no spider on earth comes even close to being able to jump that high and being heavier wouldn't help it.
When they're posting shit that was disproven years ago with stats that have no basis in reality it makes it clear they don't care about the truth of these animals
@@calebcuyler7135 The difference is that it lived in water, and all of this info about it making burrows with silk around the entrance, that it had to deal with flooding, could jump 10 meters, etc. is completely made up. This video is just of very poor quality, and shouldn't be taken seriously.
Come on, where’s the hilarious ‘props to the cameraman’ comment? Always a winner and so original.

I studied geology in college and paleontology classes were fascinating. So many absolutely bizarre creatures. It’s sad that the non avian dinosaurs are mostly noted for their extinction event. They are so successful in their environments.
Love how the narrator describes megarachne as an ambush spider while the animation shows it chasing down a lizard and butchering it like Michael Myers 😭. Why do these animations of long extinct animals always show them behaving so unnaturally. I know nobodys ever witnessed their real behavior but its not like we dont have modern references
The narrator is AI, but I get your meaning.
Is it just me or does this guy basically reread the same facts about the arthopleura 3 fucking times in a row, does he have dementia?

For the information of viewers, many of the descriptions in this video (if not all of them) are ripped directly from the wiki page for a show called Prehistoric Earth: A Natural History. This show is not a factual documentary it includes time travel and a scripted plot etc etc. You can verify this by reading that wiki on the topics of megarachne or anthropleura and this wiki is not listed as a source despite the script of this video blatantly plagiarising it.
Any massive carnivorous plants?
Saying you know that a bug was gentle or timid from that long ago is crazy. Finding fossils does not tell you all that.
Yeah, they pull too much out of their ass in so many of these videos. They treat an unproven theory like it was undisputed fact.
The poop around the fossil and in it's den shows nothing but plants in it... it's an herbivore. It's nest has no other indications of animal corpses or bits? It's passive.
I can't sleep if i see a spider and fail to kill it.
I'm sure someone has already posted this, but Meganura wasn't a dragonfly, it was a griffenfly.
This video has convinced me that Scotland was prehistoric day Australia 3.0 and that's a big no for me dawg.
LOL, These people don't even know what happened 3000 years ago not to mention hundreds of millions years ago.
There is a lot of bad information in this video. For example, how do we know arthoropleura was almost blind? Like, almost all our evidence of them is fossilized imprints of their exo-skeletons. Which we think might be sheddings, rather than remains of full corpses, due to the lack of evidence of anything but the exo-skeletal structure in these imprints. There is no way we know anything about its sensory capabilities. We have never even found an actual head fossil. Them being herbivores is also conjecture. One fossil found had a preserved gut cavity. It appears that most of the material in it was likely plant material. However no one is sure what we think could be plant material is, and there is other material present, so it was just as likely an omnivore.
If you look for this information the only sources are non academic, infotainment sites, and videos. No source from a university, professional organization, or government body, says we know anything about their senses, nor do any say we know they were herbivores.
They do this all the time, dinosaurs now have feathers and always did even tho the dunderheads the semester prior were taught they were scaled. These people have no clue. Meanwhile, Sasquatch is too far a reach for the academic class. Frauds
This is AI-assisted misinformation slop. Report it and move on.
Well said.
This planet sure has had some really frightening critters on land, underground in the Ocean's and in the air.
So many species of insects in our modern world are millions of years old. I find that exciting! Dragonflies, centipedes, scorpions, and general bugs with exo-skeletons are millions of years old. That's so cool.
We really dodged a bullet. Like we literally could've been born in a time of giant lizard/birds and insects that would have no problem snatching up our young 😨😭
But we had to deal with giant cats like tigers and panthers
That’s why children are inherently afraid of a “monster in the dark that’s going to eat us”
Because our ancestors were dealing with big cats snatching us away at night, those memories are passed down our dna. Which is why kids are afraid of this
The question I've never seen adequately answered is: We've assumed the oxygen content of the atmosphere was much higher in the Carboniferous period than today but in percentage terms is that actually true?
Instead of a higher oxygen percentage was the atmosphere itself denser? If the oxygen percentage as a proportion of the whole atmospheric pressure was only slightly higher than it is now but the atmospheric pressure was significantly greater, that would enable very large insects without resulting in continuous unextinguishable extreme wildfires.
Every time the Earth's magnetic field flips, which it does quite frequently on geological timescales, some of the atmosphere can be stripped away by the solar wind, resulting in the atmospheric pressure today being a lot lower that it could have been in the Carboniferous period.
Any answers?
Props to the cameraman for being brave enough to travel back in time and get footage from the time period
Can't wait for another, longer upload.
I am currently working on 3 videos, 2 of which are 20 minutes long, one is 1 hour long video.
The bugs of this period bring back the horror of the insect scene in Jack Black's King Kong movie. It was even worse on the big screens of movie theaters.
Insects don't usually bother me, but I was seriously creeped out for several weeks after seeing that scene.
😱
NOT to be shown to young children!!!!!
I never knew ANY of this, and I consider myself to have avid knowledge of “the dinosaur era”. I found this fascinating and truly terrifying
I call cap on half of theses behavioral descriptions. Scientists being able to guesstimate what they looked like, their size, and their potential diet is one thing, but the more specific details on their behavior feels like pure guess work.
It comes from their poop fossils and the lack of dead animals around their nests. If something won't protect it's eggs and offspring, it's not aggressive.
Most of this is made up, like them talking about the eyes of the megarachne when they would have no evidence of that or claiming it can jump 30 when that number wouldn't be physically possible from an animal with those proportions
You're probably right
i just came here to say this, they have absolutly no idea about any of these details, just pure conjecture.
Meganeura was a griffinfly, not a dragonfly. It was quite closely related, but Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies) didn't appear until the late Triassic.
It's worth noting that it seems nearly impossible for the giant arthropods to have enough dead trees and foliage to consume, but they absolutely did. During the Carboniferous Era, there were no bacteria that had evolved to break down Lignin- one of the main components of wood- yet. So there would have been an extreme abundance of dead trees everywhere. Breaking wood down in an acidic bath would have been a very common adaptation considering the abundance of such a food source.

i love how these guys just so confidently make stuff up and talk about it as facts
I used to believe these theories as facts, but over the years I have begun to have doubts. For example, there is no way scientists could know whether a centipede that lived 300 million years ago was a meat eater or a vegetarian. I doubt that researchers could even accurately date these creatures. I am also uncertain about the accuracy of carbon dating, but I do believe tree rings are fairly accurate. When it comes to stratigraphy, that system could be somewhat accurate, but I still have doubts. We can know these centipedes existed with near certainty if we find a fossil of the creature. However, without a digestive system to examine, we could not possibly know what its diet entailed. We could speculate from observing the modern-day descendants of this creature, though.
Tropical climates bore the most diverse creatures on the planet. Something "Darwin" knew. The Galapagos Islands was just the beginning.
You can already fit 1 SCU boxes through the Terrapin's door. Idealy, you should be able to use the doors on both sides. They're both modeled into the ship, our variant just has the opposite side door as a 'wall' so the door is disabled. But it's modeled into the ship.
I use mine for cargo hauling. The 16k missions are a lot of fun. I've fit up to 12 SCU in mine. Could probably fit a bit more if I wanted to play Tetris and stack them more.
My dream Terrapin variant has:
1) Removed the scanning chair and dish.
2) Placed a smaller chair behind the pilot's seat for a remote turret.
3) Placed a Valkyrie nose turret with S2s ontop in place of the scanning dish
4) Enabled the doors on both sides.
5) Placed a cargo grid for 32 SCU in 1 SCU boxes. This fits and still gives you access to the bed, the bathroom and component access.

It is interesting how the surviving species from mass extinctions seem to evolve smaller in size on this planet. Probably a response to the reduced food sources. Probably happened to humans too.
not the food sources, but the lack of oxygen. There were many more times the amount of oxygen in the air back then than there is now.
Dino times were also absolute Horror..i mean imagine house-sized monsters with teeth as long as humans run around
