"this global disaster turned out to be no bad thing" perspective is important lol
Agree what a weird thing to say in the middle of such cicumstances 😂
43 dinosaurs disliked this video.

And they all liked this comment
Hahahahahahah😂😂😂
Sorry but it wasn't really funny. 😕
Got to swim in an open Cenote and an underground. One of the coolest experiences in my life

No need! We only have to target shooting stars with nuke-tipped rockets.
Human : No bad thing
T Rex : Am I a joke to you ???
You're real original with your comment.
@@BronxBomber-mf9hlHow do you feel about that ratio?
Whg am I so fascinated with this meteor? Honestly I have been watching videos for weeks.... On that note everyone talks about the immense light, the fires, etc. but I have yet to to hear anyone mention how loud if must've been. If literally could probably be heard to some extent around the world and I'm sure it was deafening within a 1000 miles of so.
yeah exactly maybe if the asteroid didnt kill the dinos maybe the soundwaves ruptured their insides or something
Omg, I've been so intrigued by this comet for days now! I can't imagine that such a thing once hit earth, with an impact of a thousand atomic bombs, killing almost everything that once roamed the earth. But yes, it must've been loud!
You know what is crazy? We people that live in here, never actually talk much or remember about this, we learn in school about the history of Yucatán, this event it's not that mentioned. My family owns a beach house in Chicxulub Puerto, the beach town in the middle of the Impact crater, beautiful place but not a single information about this.
@@ftgrimm1016
It is strange there are no plaques or monuments or at least something in recognition of what actually happened.....Really there is no mention of it?
@@mr.d9989 Not that I remember I been visiting that beach town since I was a little kid, I'll try to find one when I return and put it in here, haven't been there since the pandemic started. What I can tell you it's that there is a museum that was open a couple of years ago call "Museo de Ciencias del Cráter de Chicxulub" BUT, never been there, and when I found about it pandemic hits and was closed to public.
It actually turned to plasma when it reached our atmosphere. The galaxy basically hit the reset button on earth. The fact that ANYTHING survived this catastrophic event is amazing and gave birth to the rise of animals with warmer blood along every other living creature we see today, inckuding plantlife which is the most miraculous recovery imo.
May not have happend
@@LearnHax you are very right, I mean nobody actually saw it happen so...

I've actually been in one of these in Mexico, beautiful stuff
The idea that scares the most is the idea of looking up and from side to side as far as you can see a meteor of that size would block out the sun as it decended upon a city ,it would be like a human stepping on an ant
I just calculated, it would be like a giant rock with a diameter of 25 meters compared to ants.
it would make you blind if you looked up even if you would've closed your eyes
Why does the guy talking sound like pippin from lord of the rings.......because i love that accent.
Wikipedia says: Iain Simpson Stewart MBE FGS FRSE (born 1964)[1] is a Scottish geologist, UNESCO Chair in Geoscience & Society, and Professor of Geoscience Communication at the U. of Plymouth and also a member of the Scientific Board of UNESCO's International Geoscience Programme.[2] Described as geology's "rock star",[3] Stewart is best known to the public as the presenter of a number of science programs for the BBC, notably the BAFTA nominated[4] Earth: The Power of the Planet (2007).
He also fell in love with a racoon after eating mushrooms on the show "My name is Earl".

Huh what fairy tales is your parents reading to you?
But from "other species" point of view, this global disaster turned out to be bad for everything !
No cuz we might be the show rather.form of life from the earth to become so succsesful
We are the only ones with this analytical point of view
Welcome to the next global mass extinction.
@@Frankdtankspanks Doesn't mean that a lot of species aren't worse off cos of us (and some extinct).

Exploded with a force of one billion, gazillion, quadrillion tons of tnt. Like anyone would actually know.
Please try and be accurate.....extremely important in this discipline. The actual figure was "one billion, gazillion, quadrillion.3579" tons of tnt. No, and I'm NOT being pedantic!
NoAxe
It is a pretty simple formula, actually. Velocity x Mass = Force. While all of the inputs are most likely a rough estimation.......the outputs are probably in the neighborhood of what actually took place.
Believe it or not, there are people a lot more smart than you and I.
Poor poor dinousours
Not all dinosaurs were killed off by this impact. Avian dinosaurs survived.
I hope that if this happens again, Robert Duvall be still alive.
Back when National Geographic used to upload in 244p
Aww they look so cute, walking in a line like that.
Interesting video, especially regarding the perimeter of deep caverns found about the meteor impact site.
It’s not real g. This never happened about hitting and wiping out the dinasaurs 66m years ago. Ha according to the Bible the world is only 7,000 years old.
If only there were a bird's eye view of the crater.
@NationalGeographic hopefully one day you will reupload it in better quality.
P.S. great video!
Our extinction would be a really gigantic speaker with Cardi B soundtrack playing 24/7
It's fascinating and shocking at the same time...
The end of something is the start of everything, if it happens to everything in the universe then we are not exempt.
*THAT CAVERN IS AN ABSOLUTE UNIT*
Those cameramen.!! 😘😘😘
2:36 That looked amazing!
that scottish accent though
im scottish and i cant tell if he is
im mexican and i understood him, why do people make fun of the accent as if other people dont understand
@@lad7534 aye ano mate
I knew it was Scottish 😂 but I love to hear it
I like his accent in particular cuz its like he's telling a REALLY good story with GREAT emphasis. Makes it interesting! :)
I agree!
@@RamMohammadJosephKaurShe made that comment 15 years ago. Who knows if she's even alive anymore 😢
What better way to hear death and destruction then in a Scottish accent. WINNER !
It makes sense that the huge impact (dinosaur killer) created all the cenotes in Mexico, having been there, am I wrong? They don't tell you that there.
Im here in Mexico and they do show u that the crater created all these centers here.
@@Qfinesse21 ¿65 million years ago the end cretaceous period?
Such a well done video. I forgot I was looking up a crater video because of the caves and then BOOM (pun) crater map
Wow, is right! Excellent video: educationally and visually. Where was this massive impact, anybody know?
Somewhere in mexico
Wow! Just wow!
That crater doesn't match the KT boundary line by 300.000 years previous. New evidence. So the KT boundary line impact is still not found.
"This global disaster turned out to be no bad thing !!" Psychopath alert
eek. what a thing to say! poor dinos...
jim johnston we humans only exist because dinosaurs were wiped out.
If that meteor didn't hit other calamities would still kill the dinosaurs but if they still live today the world would be like Monster Hunter that would be badass making dinosaur materials into weapons to kill bigger dinosaurs..
mammals might be completely different if the dinosaurs still existed, that includes us humans if we ever exist at all
limesquared if they didn’t die we would be here
Other planets: Hey guys check it out Earths barely hitting puberty

240p?! This resolution would have been better in the time of the dinosaurs!
I can confirm that's what happened. I was there...
Zoro dear u r always lost in direction i cant believe u 😂😂😂
0:58 Bong rip 😂😂😂
2:36 when drop the toilet paper in the toilet
well, i'm pretty sure that the dust from the meteorite clouded the atmosphere, just like pollution today. this caused the climate of the earth to change, and for the tectonic plates, i think the meteorite might have played a role in that as well.
You are right, it wasn’t just the sheer size of the Astroid but where it collided. The surface was enriched with Sulphur which when evaporated blocked out the Sun and caused a Nuclear Winter.
I just wanted to check are you alive after 10yrs
Pls ans. if you are...
Awesome video. Just wish it had better resolution. Very fuzzy and hard to see clearly.
I never realized this until I got older but imagine how scared the animals were.
Very interesting.
I really never thought this would be like. So thank you for this
There is growing scientific evidence that suggests that the earth may have been hit by a meteor shower around 12000 years ago that may have caused severe climate changes that happened rapidly. This could explain the loss of ancient cultures and animals. I have studied flood legends at great length including the biblical one and in my opinion most of them originated from the same place. They seem to have expanded out of India which may have experienced heavier than usual rains.
larjjlion this could be the beginning of civilizations beginning their mythology and forming of beliefs in Deities if it is true. 12,000 years ago is around the time of the Neolithic revolution, so it is possible.
Wow u need to share this
No...not exactly india but somewhere in the middle. Like afgan or modern day Iran( afgan was part of ancient India)...
Also if you look closely, most of the flood myths are associated with Aryan/ indo Europeans. Their origin and the modern religions and these flood myths have obvious connections.
I believe the oldest flood myth right now is the epic of Gilgamesh. Indian flood story of Manu also has a lot of similarities...but I think Gilgamesh is the first one closely followed by the Indian one.
F for dinosaurs, at least they’ll live on trough our record.
Some survived probably, but of course with less fighting going on evolution said no more and they became birds
John Appleseed F for non-avian dinosaurs 🦕
If anyone discovers where the meteorite hit and has not yet been discovered. What is the benefit for that person? Does he achieve wealth as a discoverer? According to my research, the effects of meteorites may destroy and bury ancient cities, as several large ancient cities are buried within 100-200 km of the collision. Please guide me to reach fame and fortune with this discovery.
Can you imagine seeing that coming or hearing it!? 😬 for the seconds you had left anyway. This and natural disasters are my only fear.
I'd hear it if you would come
Those clever mammals small size paid off 👌
What show is this from?
I’ve swam in one of these cenotes and the guy said less people have been in them then on the moon so I feel special now
So less than 12 people have been down there. That can’t be true
I don’t see why not, it’s not a populated area, it’s in the middle of the jungle and plenty haven’t been discovered. Also it’s probably under conservation
One question... So if a large meteor crashed into the earth millions of years ago, the tectonic plates did not move?
Impact didn't affected plates it caused earthquakes not strong enough to dislodge a plate
@@theyaduvanshiindian391 So truly, Pangea did Not exist..
@@richard4761
Wait, how does one correlate with the other?
Pangea supposedly broke up 100-200 Mil years ago while the chic asteroid hit about 66 Mil years.
The kt boundary is amazing
@DannyTheSeeker I tried to understand what you were saying, but it was a bit difficult. There were repeated events of a supercontinent, not just Pangaea. Any supercontinent is doomed to break up because of pressure build-up that is strongest under its center. Then the tectonic movements eventually bring them back together by closing some oceans at subduction zones and expanding others at mid-ocean ridges. No, they don't float freely, but the actual explanation is pretty long.
Is it on google earth?
that is beautiful we have such a joyous planet, yet so destroyed already and yet again so unadventured by many
Can someone put a google map coordinate for this site?
nope, found it
wooot! 1st to view! awesomne vid. i would never have noticed it was an impact site, just a cavern.
National Geographic official uploads in 240p?

Hello,
Why can't we see the traces of this famous crater?
Already: let's test if we have the same perception!
The title of this video is "Meteor Impact Site | National Geographic". Is that correct?
amazing
Fascinating stuff.
Scientist: We believed that dinosaurs ended by meteorite
Dinosaurs: So you think that were weaker than mammals
Fun fact
Before dinosaurs there were giant mammals
Also some dinosaurs: fine, I will evolve into birds.
Why Low Quality Video?
Lol 14 yrs ago dude😂
One more request.. While making video there should be written letter in background..So that other languages people can understand easily.
2021?
I want the meteor park in chicxulub!!! My land needs that! and jurasic park in yucatan will be gorgerous! jejejejeje
Imagine if this event didnt happened and dinos evolved into a species that speaks and invent stuff
they would be top of the food chain
read West of Eden...
I dare anybody to show this to Ken Ham.
Well, they weren't exactly the same modern rats or mice we have today, of course, they've evolved too since then- but they were somewhat similar. As for Crocodiles and Alligators the water is a natural shelter- but they owe their real success from simply being widespread. If they die out in one area of the world- they've always been able to repopulate from another. Plus they're not specialists and will take anything they can catch.
I love the Scottish accent of this narrator!

Waiting for the greatness to happen again 😏
Why isn’t this place like a bigger tourist spot? I understand there are chasms everywhere but all of them should be marked by now.
Why is this video so blurry?!
Hey, does anybody know the name of that Impact Crator that hit the ocean off mexico that they say killed the dionasours?
They look likes some kind of mouse. They're so awesome. :)
I greatly appreciate the 3d map in the video. IMHO the Chicxulub crater is caused by ejecta from a much larger impact. I have (at this posting) one video explaining where and how to find other ejecta impacts from the Wallowa event.
0:57 keep clicking it..
2:38
It exploded with the force of 10,000 wombats!
This is what emotionally numbed us...at the heritage inheritance at our birth's
Im only 12 years old and I love history or about the galaxy or earth its so interesring

9 miles is pretty small compared to the earth size. Can u draw a 9 miles circle on a map, u will see its a dot.
9 miles, that 6 mile Rock keeps getting bigger, lol. It's not just the size, it's the speed of the Rock. That's a 6 mile across Rock moving at over fifty-thousand miles per hour, or for perspective over 'Mach 75'. F=MA, or in this case Force equals 'Mass' times 'deceleration'.
I can understand the "how can something so small be so destructive" questions. I have doubts that the 'Rock' was the sole contributor. Deccan Traps and Chicxulub (KT extinction), vs Siberian Traps (Permian-Triassic extinction)? How many species went extinct in North America because of the Chesapeake Bay impact crater?
A 1cm rock is nothing vs your body's height, but imagine if it travels with +200 km/h to you. Now imagine a very faster astroid or comet.
Zarcondeegrissom don't forget that there is evidence that shows that the meteor struck the earth at an angle so it means that crust and magma from the earth was lifted up into the sky and rained down all over continental North America
It didnt hurt the structure of the earth as it showen in the video but the lave and meteor its self turned into smaller rockets which went to the atmosphere and returned burned.. and burned all the jungles and woods and trees
Are you sure this thing impacted over there and formed the circulaire course?
How does that explain the fact that there are way more cenotes than what they pictured in the "crater". Even in Quintana Roo there are thousands of cenotes, that is hundreds of miles from where there are talking about? If the asteroid created the cenotes why are there so many at different sites many many miles from the "impact" site
I think what they mean is not that the cenotes per se were created by the asteroid but the giant circular patern they shape in this particular zone.
What would the world be like if this crater never struck? Would dinosaurs evolve to the point of talking?
Please explain how do intelligent design fit into this.
Did it hit half way into the ocean like the land is today or was it all underwater back then?
Instead of deafening sounds we now enjoy listning to likable &lovalle sounds
Looks like the caves from The Descent! I ain’t going down there
Anybody else building a fireproof ark that can fly, float and also burrow beneath shockwaves?
