Oh my god the story of anomalocaris’s discovery ❤️ I’m back in school returning as a geology student. I’m obsessed with that dude. I even have a stuffed one.
I'm also thankful for this video. First I saw it in public television, Canal Once, in Mexico. I totally loved the storytelling of the video and the arguments, how it concatenates evolutionary milestones, to explain the evolution or vertebrates. I searched for it ever since. Hey, there are a science communication page in Spanish called "The Anomalocaris bite", so I am not the only one that loved it.
I realised it was (relatively) old when I first started watching it, but it stands up to the test of time. The tale of the Burgess Shale and it's remarkable collection of fossilised animals is told clearly and simply, but doesn't 'dumb down' the subject or other wise patronise the viewer. I'd recommend it to anyone wanting to know a little more about life on this planet and how its changed over the millions of years, from slightly older kids to adults who might not know a lot about the subject but want to know a lot more. It might not be so suitable for young kids because some of those creatures are very strange to look at and even pretty scary!
THANK YOU!!! Yes, this is older.... But it's not DUMBED DOWN like most modern Shows. Lately, Programs about the pre Cambrian explosion merely say that there was Bacterium, then Snowball Earth... THEN all of a sudden - Trilobites and about 10,000 other complex life forms apparently SPONTANEOUSLY appeared!! This was far more enlightening. 👍👍
This show literally shaped my entire worldview as a child. I would not be the man I am today without it. Thank you, for uploading it, so I can experience it again.
"The tale of the Burgess Shale and ITS remarkable collection..." The "its" used here is a possessive pronoun and not a version or derivative of "it is". Now what i cannot understand is why Eustenopteron showed features also seen in Coelacanths BUT are not present in ancient amphibians or (seemingly) the Tiktaalik and can also be seen in Lungfish...
Ah, anomalocaris. The Japanese became INCREDIBLY fond of it and used it as a boss or creature in numerous media. Anorith and Armaldo from Pokemon are based on it, as is the boss Accordion Hazzard from G Darius.
Notice how the speed of the jaw opening and closing at time 41:40 it makes a suction that pulls the fish bait into its mouth as it only moves a fraction...Amazing think of Duncoloctis jaw speed and the size of that mouth sucking in a whole fish...wow!
clicked on this thinking it's a 4 minutes video. half way through during transition, I thought that's got to be the longest 4 minutes video ever seen. then I was pleasantly surprised the story continues.
So what was the evolving chemistry/salinity etc. of the ocean then? I'm thinking that most of the oxygen is still bound up in the sea water.. So the atmosphere at that time likely had very low O2(?).. -Not yet habitable for life on land.
Yes VERY low, compared.. Then as plants formed, the minerals replaced the O2 in the water via algea, etc. and it moved upwards into the atmosphere into clouds, then back down via rain, etc, etc.
Oh I know 😭😭😭😭 believe me I’ve searched EVERYWHERE for months and months. I think it’s lost media. The beautiful music in this show keeps me coming back. It’s so perfect
@@reubenc0039 same!! i've looked everywhere but no luck... it's so pretty i'm so so sad it's no where to be found. maybe we'll get lucky and someone'll just post it one day
Cracks open a rock. Light had not seen this fossil for almost 450 Million years. First person in history to ever see this image. Ho Hum. just another day at the office.
I saw this one years ago and loved it. BUT! I say unto you, give me an app that eliminates crappy-ass "mood music" on videos (or at least tones it down). Amen.
Your very first statement is FALSE. Here is why: There was life in the oceans, particularly cyanobacteria and algae. These tiny cells are scattered by breaking waves in droplets as we know because we can literally taste salt in the air near the ocean. Once these droplets entered the atmosphere, they were scattered by the winds over the ENTIRE LAND of the planet. There were certainly some areas of land, and rain fell much as it does today. Hence, there were ponds, rivulets, and areas of damp ground, upon which the life-bearing droplets landed. Most perished due to lack of salinity, but Evolution always finds a way for some organisms to survive. A few of these organisms could tolerate fresh water. Thereby, the land areas of the Earth became covered with cyanobacteria and algae. This process must have begun as soon as cyanobacteria and later as algae became alive. So the fresh water on Earth became filled with these green photosynthetic organisms. It was from these green organisms that the first plants evolved. The strongest evidence for this is the fact that, with very few exceptions, plants do NOT tolerate salt water and have almost no need for sodium as animals do. So the land areas of Earth had a covering of greenery long before the first animals arrived.
I know this sounds crazy, I was brought up on the east coast in the Boston area, my Mom,RIP would take me to nantasket beach as a baby, she said I wriggled out of her hands and would flop around in the shallow surf, so I was a fish you would say, my whole life the ocean is where I feel at home, some would say it's because of being accustomed to it since early life, but I'm telling you there's something deep down I could never put in words that my connection is primitive, it's where I belong and where I'd like to die, who knows exactly, but I know the ocean is more than just my play thing as a baby, something in my soul and my instincts tell me the ocean is my past. Told you it sounds crazy.
John Montoya So who created your god, the same people who created Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy, because there's as much scientific evidence for any of them

Academia is the worst place to find truth .
@@markdemell6087 There are worse places - like Fox News and Donald Trump's mouth.

Jesus the soundtrack for Anomalocaris is amazing. I miss this quality of academia documentaries.

Brilliant show and amazing for its time so full of amazing finds thank you
I've been looking for this for ages, this show got in interested in paleontology as a kid. Awesome!

Thanks for posting this! I used to watch this one with my son when he was small.
I like how the low res makes the water look more murky/spooky. 😱
I really wish they made a soundtrack for this series.
I don't. Too many doco's are ruined by overly dramatic soundtraks
@@squareysquare3150 I agree a lot of the time, but I feel like it adds here really nicely
Most of the tracks are lost media. It sucks because the music is BEAUTIFUL.
Late comment but isn’t this composer Japanese? I feel like their music is so familiar….
Amazing video! This is the only video I’ve seen that talks about the Cambrian age in this much detail.

Don’t forget Lileep and it’s evolution as well 😊 (Cradily)
bro i loved the way they dipict the animals i watched this when i was 8 now im11
Great video! Thanks for sharing it with us.
Nice. !
Awesome!
Burgess shale unlocked many truths about our past...
Stacy keach is narratting

To be the person to see an entirely new fossil would be awesome.
I love all biology films?
Time and all it’s had to offer literally blows my mind
The more they break the shale open they'll find countless varieties, their just waiting for someone to crack them open.

Anomalocaris is a very good catcher at trilobite wow
I mean it’s not like they’re hard to catch ..
Good, but what happen to Jay Gould & his book on the Burgess Shale, the 'Wonderful Life'. Oh, BTW things are changing fast with JWST.
The gooby wooby show!!
Very interesting
The Cambrian explosion is cool😎😎
Does anybody know the theme from 22:12-25:05?
La música la compuso Michiru Oshima
Buscala como Planet of Life
360p, We meat again...
*Furiously beats meat*
🛴🤣🛴 I recently watched something 244p
David Attenborough just did a 2 part series on life on earth well done and they know so much more 30 years later❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Does anyone have the full soundtrack of this episode?
The flat fish at time 30:57 looks like a long tailed flounder fish of today that live both in sea and freshwater estuary rivers
43:59 esto es cine 🗿🚬
What was the (bony) freshwater fish called? Calolepus? (Before the Eustenopteron.)
From the sea to river? I hope they will not take this down.
Cracks open a rock. Light had not seen this fossil for almost 450 Million years. First person in history to ever see this image. Ho Hum. just another day at the office.
Does anybody know the track name that starts at 15:00?? At the start of the “Mystery of the Predator” chapter
This documentary is now also part of the fossil record. Lol.
what's the music playing at 14:42
Just watching again and the ancient fish at about time 38:01 is very similar to today's "PIKE" a hunting fish also.
Richard Biffaman a lot of fish are actually prehistoric!!!! Pikes, bischirs, alligator gar.
@@cherubwords2472Words wow! i had no idea thank you so much :)
Episode 02: Ancient Oceans
When the History channel really gave a damm 🙄
to you . 2000 years later
What a productive life they lead lol
Bbbuttt ma bable seys adam is ma father!
Quality is awful but its better than nothing thank you for the upload.
the narrator voiced the civilization games by sid meiers
30:28 RIP that paramecium

ahhh the narrator is the warden from prison break season 1 lol
Quality of video and sound both is horrendous.
Ummm it’s not
New but the information is absolutely good
I saw this one years ago and loved it. BUT! I say unto you, give me an app that eliminates crappy-ass "mood music" on videos (or at least tones it down). Amen.
Or just deal with it
You have awful taste
I wish the hell these doco makers would get past this dramatic music accompaniment format.
I listed some sites above that aren't Drama Queen but solid science expertly presented. I agree with your criticism. We don't need Drama!
People didn’t watched these docos with headphones on back then dude lol
Stacey Keech?
I wonder if any of these guys were delicious tasting
Sound quality sucks. .
Anomalocaris likes to eat everything

Why doesn't know what car is like kayak
Why is worm scared of a anomalocaris🤔🤔🤨
Great but the music is abysmally loud and annoying !
Anomalocaris is very good at catching trilobite
Why does anomalocaris like eating trilobites🤔🤔
I know all of the animals a video told me all the animals in the Cambrian explosion
Why is anomalocaris scared of worms
Trilobite look like a bugs or pill bugs
Why does animal cards like Angel trial bites

Where are the sharks
Sharks didn't evolve yet during the Cambrian, they evolved during the devonian period.
Why is anomalocaris why is he yellow and orange🤔🤨
Where is Dunkleosteus
Why does anomalocaris have blue eyes and black eyes
Why are you commenting so much?!
Why is a normal car has yellow and orange🤨🤔
Please don't eat me anomalocaris😒😒
You’re very annoying
