      And then it rains and the loss of water is vastly mitigated by any minute losses of water. :P Especially if we consider rainfall in rainforests, tropical ones even more so, and more still if we consider global rainfall. So spilled water from a fairly tiny jug of water isn't gonna do much to put a noticeable dent in the bodies and reserves of water on Earth.

      New Zealand has stories passed down about tall, red haired people living here in the past. There are even Maori with DNA that is tied to the Peru area still alive today.

And they kept track of places they had already discovered through mapping pf ocean currents and star charts primarily. In the middle of the pacific the night sky is a whole lot brighter and more diverse than near civilization. Making it a lot easier to use as a guide.

    See, when I think about how early the Polynesians had mastered the Pacific.....how is it possible that the Americas were not highly traveled much earlier than we thought. Just seems logical. Thanks for this!

      What do you mean? America was fully inhabited when Europeans found it.

    It's puzzling how all continents are on one side of earth only and no major landmass exists on such a large area

    At 1:28 he says the distance between the two farthest points of the pacific ocean is 19800 km
    But the entire diameter of the earth is around 12700 km
    So we can frigging fit the earth in the pacific ocean? And have space for mars too?
    Damn it is big asf (that's what she said.. )

    Two additional facts for the depth of the Mariana Trench:
    The Wreck of the RMS Titanic ever since 1912 is at the depth of just about 4 KM. That makes the Trench more than 2.5 times deeper than the Titanic’s depth in the Northern Atlantic Ocean.
    Another comparison is with the highest point on Earth, Mount Everest. Mount Everest is 8 KM tall, and so if you flipped it upside down into the Trench, the Trench will only have 3 KM of space from the tip-top of the great mountain of Mount Everest.
