    2nd version of the original.
    New stuff:
    Completely new animation from -1380 Myr to -750 Myr.
    Polished up animation because I animated the original quite sloppily.
    New animation from -3300 Myr to -2100 Myr.

      Sorry there is no logical or scientific reason for the continents to float about. This theory is incorrectly premised. Before you all get into knee jerk reactions, think.
      Physics theorizes most probably correctly that E= mc2 which can resolve to m=E/c2 that is mass (matter) = Energy / Speed of light multiplied by the speed of light (Squared). As Light that strikes Earth penetrates the ground it slows and there is a certain reaction that takes place which turns that Energy into Matter building blocks, as this has been happening for 4. something BILLION years, Earth expands and the movement that we call Tectonic Plate movement, is naught but the expansion of the planet.
      See here for a better explanation:

    For viewers who have the time, follow Ur from 0:19 onwards. It contains pieces of Africa, Antarctica, Asia and Australia. Just keep your eyes on that little piece of land until it splits up at at 4:45
    Why am I telling you this? Think about it, those 4 pieces were connected together the whole time for nearly 3,000,000,000 years and only then got separated. That's nearly two thirds the lifetime of the earth. That duration consisted of practically the entire history of multi-cellular life on Earth. It survived literally every supercontinent that ever existed in history!
    That final separation was kinda heart breaking.

    The scale of time becomes clear when you realize that in one life time they move about 2-3 m and even after a thousand human lifetimes, the continents have barely moved more than a couple of miles. Real changes are noticeable after about a hundred thousand lifetimes and it takes a million lifetimes for a supercontinent to split. Assuming you lived a hundred years between births and deaths, You'd have to be born, live and die 33 million times to experience everything in this video. That's a hundred million generations !

    In case any of you guys missed the post, I am current in the process of making yet another version of Continental Drift, this time it's the long-awaited reversed AND labeled version. In order to render the actual shapes of the continents without distortion (as presented in a projection such as this video's Mollweide globe) the video will be in VR and of course, 8K. It's the closest RUclips is getting to a website with an actual globe. The version will be based on paleomagnetic data wherever possible and a best guess if no data exists, as a result everything before 1 billion years will look different compared here.
    This is a developmental screenshot showing the reconstruction at 2.1 billion years. This is not how it will look in the final version.
