Nice natural history doc. Refreshing not to be teased every ten minutes and not having the narrative being repeated ad nauseum. Also low on over-egged drama. Four thumbs up.
There is a job I could NEVER do: drill rock samples to reveal the contained fossil. I can't imagine having either the patience (incredible patience) or the fine motor control such work would require. Much prefer hard rock geology and smashing things with my sledge hammer. However, I am extraordinarily thankful for the work folks do that I never could. Kudos for them. We learn so much from what they do.
I'm exactly the same 🙂 I have an autistic sister, though, very intelligent and extremely patient, with excellent fine motor skills and attention to detail. She'd be perfect for this kind of job 🙂

Absolutely amazing how they work out the details from the fossils. Wouldn’t be incredible if we had a Time Machine and could compare reality to what they have concluded
I've always wanted to do this, but we'd have died in an instant 🙁 We were taught in school that even just several thousand years ago, our lungs would have suffered because the air was clean and contained more oxygen. I even have problems like that when I hike in the foresty hills where the air is very good. In the time period described in the video - add even more oxygen and tens of kinds of pollens we're not used to, and our noses and lungs would probably explode.
Thanks. I also avoid titles with words like "shocking" or "insane truth" And especially, "blow your mind." Do I really want my mind blown or shocked? etc. I guess someone likes this approach or they wouldn't continue to do it. Ronn@@Nunavuter1

We're you there ? 🤣 There are reptiles that have various vocal capabilities...the representation of dinosaur vocalizations in pop culture is of course overly dramatized...such is capitalism...
Im not sure this is about the rise of the mammals as much as it is about finding fossils and the people who do it... It feels like watching a reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally long intro. I would have enjoyed it more if I was not expecting something else, that I thougth it was about.
its blows my brain how evolutions reshapes mammals humans that plants have the power to feed to change the needs of creatures in earth so why these people now destroying our forest lands and even in sea`s that many of them is religious and saying god provide this to our needs but thier exploiting it and that is why i truly loves the science just because it answers all my questions on how the nature provides all we need reshaping us
We are all part of this abuse of nature. You - and I of course are writing on things that requires a certain degree of destruction of nature by mining and processing a lot of different minerals. Sadly there's No easy solution. But maybe our creativity can make up for this, but we got not much time, as we are destroying habitats for all creatures inclusive our own..
Makes you wonder about the unique ecosystem following the impact. These early mammals may have survived only by eating the bugs that themselves had specialized on decaying plant matter and fungi. It is very possible that lack of sunlight and the resulting loss of plant species (food) killed the majority of the species that were lost, not the initial impact. You have to suspect that any residual animal matter would not have been able to sustain these populations but something that could eat the worms that could live in the fungal recyclers and fallen deadwood would be doing OK. A skunk-like organism does make sense; travelling the wasteland smelling out and eating bugs in the recycling dead matter. Some birds also would be well equipped for finding such worms in fungus and rotting wood and eating them for their sole sustenance. It was rapid forced specialization of a world without photosynthesis that killed everything that could not adapt.
Don't you have to give alternative facts for the creationist zealots? I guess they'll just have to work very hard to bend these facts to their liking. Good show, thanks for posting.
Yes you can.....by denying him any alternative source of water, the horses self preservation, thirst and will to live will "make" him drink it before he dies every single time......try it yourself. So if we took away all the Bibles and refrences to Religons as alternatives to actual facts and reality.....the bible thumpers would drink up Science as they know no alternative facts, made-up dieties, or beliefs to brain-wash you're childrens heads with from birth and could grow up with an education taught from fact based/proven explanations of things instead of a belief based, alternative facts, there are no such thing as Dinosaurs.....kind of learning enviroment. So see you can lead the horse to water and make him drink it, you may have to wait a day or two for him to be dehydrated.....but, he'll damn well drink it LOL@@rositasultana3958
I'm Christian and have absolutely no problem with astronomy and paleontology documentaries. Swap "one day" for "millions of years" and the stories are actually similar. They both tell the story of Earth - water - minerals - plants - animals - people, and people coming to being in a fertile region. The story about leaving the paradise might be humans having to leave the fertile parts of Africa - which we know happened. There was even the huge flood in the Middle East. Given that scientists discovered Doggerland, a huge sunken region near today's Britain, even the Ancient Greek myth of the sunken Atlantis might have basis in reality. For me, religion and science don't contradict but complement each other.
@@CaptHollister Actually, parts of the Genesis are supported by paleontology and history. See my previous comment. I studied mythology and some types of myths seem to be ancient takes on actual prehistory or history. It makes sense - they were actual events, recorded in the mindset the people had then. Historians cooperate with scientists nowadays, which is very useful. Like, the weird "don't cook a goat in its mother's milk" rule you find in the Torah/Old Testament is actually valid anemia prevention, as it was discovered there are two types of iron in meat that are useful for the creation of red blood cells. But one of them reacts with and is made useless by milk. So if you eat meat with milk, you only get half the nutrition benefits and are more prone to anemia, which can make you weak, depressed and susceptible to diseases.
The mere unfairness and tragedy of this. I feel sorry for the poor dinosaurs. They reigned for 160 million years only to go out like this? Although it doesn’t make a difference but I’m sorry.
They took over from the pseudosuchians, who took over from the synapsids. At least the end was quick for them, the synapsids especially had a really bad extinction. It's actually amazing anything survived that, and 90% of everything didn't. The dinosaur extinction was 75%
I'd love to be a Proud Mammal, but I am in reality the exact opposite.......we are the one's who are going to make Earth uninhabitable for our form of life as well as most of the others living here and don't seem to want to change our ways at all in spite of this. It may have been better for every form of life on the Planet that we didn't evolve or become what we have today.....wouldn't you agree?

I hate when docs are so dramatic. Like that part where they are so surprised to find fossils in concretion and that makes a turn in their research. Bro, that must be one of the first thing they teach you at university when you study to become a palaeontologist!
I like to think that the destruction of the megafauna of plants and dinosaurs occurred because the projectile(s) hit earth with such velocity it (they) sunk right into the earth’s iron core; expanding the earth into such a large sphere it tore apart the continent into the pieces of today, which can be put together exactly if the sphere shrunk back again. I like to think the thickness of the atmosphere thinned to today’s atmosphere, that gravity suddenly became more forceful, and everything large could not withstand the intense pressure. Only the tiny survived, and in surviving began to adapt and grow. Some took to the water for additional help, hence the whales, etc.
The impactor was vaporised, it didn't sink. The Earth stayed the same size, it wasn't that big as compared to the size of the Earth. It was a pea hitting a beach ball. The problem was the speed, which led to the vaporisation, which led to the impact winter blocking out the Sun. There was a time when something big enough to have an effect somewhat similar to what you described, but that was very far back, and there were no continents that far back, around 4.5 billion years ago, the impact with Thea.
I rarely have quibble with PBS about anything, I'm Australian and so my taxes don't contribute, but I must protest at the overtly triumphalist tribalism in the opening remarks - this is one of the problems we are trying to rectify: our separation from nature due to b/s from religion and/or political ideology.
"Due to b/s from religion" - actually, from people who claim they are religious. All religions teach humility. Separation from nature is very much an arrogance, laziness and greed thing. Almost no religion teaches it, and some have explicit rules about not harming the natural world. There's an old religion in India that teaches you are not allowed to even breathe in a mosquito by mistake. Christianity teaches we should rule the animal world and CARE FOR IT.
No... You can have 75% of species losing all it's individuals and the rest os species losing many of it's individuals, in total 90% disappearing. Imagine a zoo with 100 animals of 4 distinct species with exactly 25 individuals each. If something happens and 3 (75%) of those species loses all individuals, and the remaining specie looses 15 individuals, that would be 90% of life disappeared. ;)
The two sentences that made the distinction were literally next to each other in the documentary: the first figure refers ro species, the second one to the number of individual animals of all species that were alive at that point. Both these numbers are very rough estimates since many smaller animals, plants, etc. simply don'tfossilize well, but it is hardly surprising that huge numbers of animals (and other undocumented life forms at the time) of all species died. In a large number of cases, that includes every animal of that species (i.e. extinction of that line) while in others, some survived to repopulate the earth and create new ecosystems.
@@Dr.Ian-Plect yeah, this is what I said. 3 out of 4 died, which means 75% of the species disappeared completely. But still can be 90% of life died, which means apart of those 3 species that completely disappeared, the species who survived lost lots of its individuals, so 90% of life disappeared.
And the fall of mammals. 10 000 years ago humans were below 1% of total mass of the mammals. But now we with our domesticated animals are over 99% of the mass of mammals. We have taken out the space from other mammal species. And that devastation does not end there.
Actually I began to read on wikipedia on the crater of Chicxukub and the opposing theory of the balsamic trapps in West India.. for the extinction of dinosaurs.. that is enough.. Facts.
It's the worst day in the history of Earth is actually A false statement because ah 1 it never happened and 2 the uh um the flood in Noah's time happened and was the only extinction that wasn't because of man every other extinction is because of us the sinfull ones.
@@sH-ed5yf There actually was a massive flood in the Middle East, probably caused by a volcano eruption that were more common there than they are now. All the Ancient cultures recorded it and there's some paleontological evidence.

Took forever for this doc to get going
Thos doc says nothing. Just the same thing over and over again
To suggest that mammals are predominant is nonsense. Plants are far more important than any creature. Without plants, nothing lives.
"Without plants, nothing lives."
- tripe
@@Dr.Ian-Plect You will find that we need cows to make tripe, without plants there are no cows. They are herbivores. did you not know that?
@@dropperknot "You will find that we need cows to make tripe, without plants there are no cows. They are herbivores. did you not know that?"
- a lame attempt to divert from your moronic statement
- and, wrong again, you don't need cows for tripe
Mammals lineages had already split by 66 millions years ago.
this is about how they came to dominate the land, not necessarily when they started to diversify
so dinsaurs didn't eat legumes.
Eat your legumes!
ha ha i love my vegies.

Yes, and now we're threatning that life again. So? I support 7 wildlife/enviromental organisations, Amnesty & Labour in the UK.
I hate when docs are so dramatic. Like that part where they are so surprised to find fossils in concretion and that makes a turn in their research. Bro, that must be one of the first thing they teach you at university when you study to become a palaeontologist!
I’m not a palaeontologist, so I appreciate the info and like the enthusiasm.
My grandchildren may find an inspiration in these documentaries.❤
I like to think that the destruction of the megafauna of plants and dinosaurs occurred because the projectile(s) hit earth with such velocity it (they) sunk right into the earth’s iron core; expanding the earth into such a large sphere it tore apart the continent into the pieces of today, which can be put together exactly if the sphere shrunk back again. I like to think the thickness of the atmosphere thinned to today’s atmosphere, that gravity suddenly became more forceful, and everything large could not withstand the intense pressure. Only the tiny survived, and in surviving began to adapt and grow. Some took to the water for additional help, hence the whales, etc.
The impactor was vaporised, it didn't sink. The Earth stayed the same size, it wasn't that big as compared to the size of the Earth. It was a pea hitting a beach ball. The problem was the speed, which led to the vaporisation, which led to the impact winter blocking out the Sun.
There was a time when something big enough to have an effect somewhat similar to what you described, but that was very far back, and there were no continents that far back, around 4.5 billion years ago, the impact with Thea.
I rarely have quibble with PBS about anything, I'm Australian and so my taxes don't contribute, but I must protest at the overtly triumphalist tribalism in the opening remarks - this is one of the problems we are trying to rectify: our separation from nature due to b/s from religion and/or political ideology.
"Due to b/s from religion" - actually, from people who claim they are religious. All religions teach humility. Separation from nature is very much an arrogance, laziness and greed thing. Almost no religion teaches it, and some have explicit rules about not harming the natural world. There's an old religion in India that teaches you are not allowed to even breathe in a mosquito by mistake. Christianity teaches we should rule the animal world and CARE FOR IT.

Neil Shubin states that 'three out of four species died' - that's 75%. Then he states 90% of all planetary life died. Contradictory is it not?
No... You can have 75% of species losing all it's individuals and the rest os species losing many of it's individuals, in total 90% disappearing.
Imagine a zoo with 100 animals of 4 distinct species with exactly 25 individuals each. If something happens and 3 (75%) of those species loses all individuals, and the remaining specie looses 15 individuals, that would be 90% of life disappeared. ;)
The two sentences that made the distinction were literally next to each other in the documentary: the first figure refers ro species, the second one to the number of individual animals of all species that were alive at that point.
Both these numbers are very rough estimates since many smaller animals, plants, etc. simply don'tfossilize well, but it is hardly surprising that huge numbers of animals (and other undocumented life forms at the time) of all species died. In a large number of cases, that includes every animal of that species (i.e. extinction of that line) while in others, some survived to repopulate the earth and create new ecosystems.
Not at all contradictory since they refer to two different things.
@@EdwardFirmo No, '3 out of 4 species' doesn't allow for your silly breakdown within a species. It means the entire species!
@@Dr.Ian-Plect yeah, this is what I said. 3 out of 4 died, which means 75% of the species disappeared completely. But still can be 90% of life died, which means apart of those 3 species that completely disappeared, the species who survived lost lots of its individuals, so 90% of life disappeared.
And the fall of mammals. 10 000 years ago humans were below 1% of total mass of the mammals. But now we with our domesticated animals are over 99% of the mass of mammals.
We have taken out the space from other mammal species. And that devastation does not end there.

We're free, but please don't jokes with other beliefs, except, they're who start to mocking you.
Actually I began to read on wikipedia on the crater of Chicxukub and the opposing theory of the balsamic trapps in West India.. for the extinction of dinosaurs.. that is enough..
Facts.
Is this a documentary about mammals or about some over privileged kid?
It’s free real estate yo
Why is there a non euro fleemail taking about this? That's dei and cultural appropriation.
Not watching a dei doc
Bone diggers lmao. PALEONTOLOGISTS! Silly ♡
It's the worst day in the history of Earth is actually A false statement because ah 1 it never happened and 2 the uh um the flood in Noah's time happened and was the only extinction that wasn't because of man every other extinction is because of us the sinfull ones.
drivel
Nope. Earth was hit with an asteroid to end the time of the dinosaurs and your Noah's ar is a fairy tale.
Your flood never happened kiddo
@@sH-ed5yf There actually was a massive flood in the Middle East, probably caused by a volcano eruption that were more common there than they are now. All the Ancient cultures recorded it and there's some paleontological evidence.

this docu was so good until anjali appeared 😂😂😂 she speaks like a 5 yr old girl with no substance....where did yall dig her from??? she ruined this entire docu as a child's comic book 😂😂😂
Fraudulent nonsense.
