It's either too light and flip, or it can be sinister and suggestive of alien influence. Those presentations also detract from the fascinating science involved.
I love watching videos on ancient history and ancient human ancestors to learn how we became what we are now. I find it very interesting to think what we might look like in the distant future with this modern digital society.
“Science doesn’t proceed or get better with established ideas. You have to challenge”... what an excellent statement. It is just amazing how many clues could be found on a single piece of bone that shows how it moved when it was alive. A huge thank you to all scientists for all the amazing work they do to move humanity forward.
Yes, and human intelligence has an interesting proclivity to recognize patterns. In the words of the fossil hunter - “It made me want to jump for joy.”

The people who found the bones, don’t have the education to say anything about the bones, nor the tools to examinations. People who studied geology are not always the founders but to find stuff you don’t need education. Hope that answers the question. Of course founders should be rewarded but who will do the big part of the work and the difficult and important part? The geologists.

I wouldn't go that far. The odds of a single atom being made in even the most ideal conditions are practically impossible. Evolution has too many gaps that are conveniently overlooked in order to make sense; hence why the theory of evolution is just that, a theory.
@@jordanrobinson9379 Jordan, just because you don’t understand evolution, does not mean that it isn’t true. I recommend you read some introductory books on evolution because based on your comment, you’re not too sure how it works. Plus, a “theory” in science can colloquially be called a fact. A scientific theory is an idea that is backed up by overwhelming evidence, intensely peer reviewed, and proved in all facets.
I'll help lend a machete to your intellectual thicket.. Those bones were NOT found at the same location. In fact they were miles apart.. The local Kenyan who had found a jaw fragment "that appeared to be early hominid", reported his finding. Then of course Europeans were sent to investigate but found NOTHING at the site of the discovery. Those other bones were each found miles apart and at different depths. Those facts are conveniently left out. Also facts are that this "discovery" has been widely disputed even among anthropologists and argued that it's merely a collection of extinct ape bones scattered miles apart. Now, had the Kenyan discovered a nearly intact, nearly complete skeleton with a skull.....which has NEVER been discovered btw. It's a difderent story then. Large collections of what could be early hominids bones have been discovered together in one place. But the bones were fragmented as if dashed to peices.

The child then went to his mother and asked her the same question and she told him: "We were monkeys then we evolved to become like we are now." The child ran back to his father and said: "You lied to me! Mom said we came from monkeys!" His father replied: "No son, your mom was talking about her side of the family."
Our relationship with the trees is something sacred. Think about how most kids instinctively love to climb trees or play on monkey bars. It's been in our DNA for millions of years.
ridiculous. today , humans still need to climb trees for survival. unless you are a city dweller completely devoid of any experience of living in nature, escaping hostile others , either human or animal. or other reasons people climb trees. No ape ancestors are required .
We long ago climbed tree’s so kids not nowdays that much into climbing tree’s, but climbable tree’s kids can still climb. Tree’s were back then place to climb for safety from predators, so that why were into getting back to the tree, but when humans spears. We had no point to climb tree’s anymore, when we could fight the predators now and so humans started to slowly lose intrest in tree’s.
@@jout738 there are tribes that still live in trees in remote areas around the world the Korowia tribe build their homes 100 feet off the ground in 🌳s an spend alot of their time living off the ground in trees.
Great comment. I think that creature was able to walk upright, but evolved a larger brain than the great apes & kept evolving into Lucy & into Neanderthals that learned how to create tools & beyond. Look at how many different kinds of apes there are. As you said, we're the same when we are children climbing trees. As a side race, Humans evolved as the other Great Apes didn't. I liked this one. 🦍

@@ohwhatelse Actually son, the evolution of the eye is very well understood and is easily followed in the fossil record if you care to look. The earliest eyes were quite basic. Little trilobite type creatures just had two little pits on their head with a light sensitive cell at the bottom of each. There was no lens, retina or cornea. But from such simple beginnings evolved our visual organs. Interestingly the ocular fluid of our eye today has the same salinity as the ancient seas from whence it evolved.

Unless creation is true, by evidence of fossils. No record of civilization is found further back than 5--6 thousand years. Ape fossils have been found but they are not humanoids or early man. Some scientists believe Neanderthals were just a race of people, as people did live in caves long ago.
Looking at my foot, I understand immediately that such a contraption takes time to develop from, I suppose, something like a normal paw. Probably our foot gave us possibilities to survive during periods of extreme weather, i.e. periods of drought. I once visited a flood estuary with mangrove trees in west Africa and was surprised of the enormous amount of easily caught food in the form of crabs, fish, mussels and a variety of crustaceans. I became convinced if an ape learned to live here, he would have good chances to survive the severest of times, provided he could stand still and steady on his feet.

After watching the segment of the video on orangutans, I was struck how similar in structure their young are to our own babies. The legs of both very young human babies and orangutans splay at the hips allowing each to be carried on an adult hip. When our babies learn to stand upright, their legs still splay with knees pointing more toward the sides. As human babies develop, the their knees become more oriented toward the front and the arms are used to allow independent movement by clutching at chairs, coffee tables, or a convenient adult leg, rather than a convenient branch.
If you ever seen their skeleton compared to ours you would see they are nothing at all like us and they basically have four hands that they walk on!!! They are built to walk on all fours, nothing like us at all!!! Also their skulls are completely different and especially their mouths!! They are not our ancestors at all and if Evolution was true then why are there still apes??? Where's the billions of transitional fossils if Evolution actually happened there would be billions of them!!! They lie and twist everything they can to make you believe that garbage that you came from a ape when it's the furthest thing from the truth!!! Look up the amazing discoveries of Ron Wyatt on RUclips and also watch the greatest documentary ever made called, Evolution Theory Modern Myth, Ancient man was not primitive! You'll see just how advanced ancient man was and it's more than we are today!!! You'll also see that God is very real in every way!!!

@@kirkkirkland7244, What you are missing is the fact that Orrorin had physical characteristic somewhat like the tree swingers of Asia. When Africa was more forested and less savannah. Orrorin was able to transition to walking upright better than the more specialized Knuckle walkers now in Africa.
All this - especially in the beginning of the video, where miles and miles of generations are illustrated to help the viewer develop a mental "picture" of how long ago we're talking about here - is truly mind boggling.
it's totally fake, it is just something artificial they made up. do you really believe everything others artificially put into a fake illustration? you've been duped.
The greatest fact to me is that Jesus rose from the grave and was seen by many people Lucy is only 40% of monkey bones and they added 60% human bone and made it walk. Think about it would you be willing to die for Lucy? Look how many Christians lost their lifes for Jesus they knew who he was they seen the resurection the healing the prophecy's. And one thing the Roman's were very good at was cruifying people that was what they were known for. And they had guards Jew guards and Roman guards blocking his tomb they seen him with his glorified body and they seen angels. And when Jesus died it was 12 noon and it turned black for 3 hours and there was a huge earth quake. They have so many documents from people in that time reporting on it there is so much proof research it and you will see. And the only one I know of in history or anytime was Jesus who could raise himself from the deal and many other people and they have evidence of everything.
@@sergioheredia2732 The bible is a work of fiction my friend, I thought everybody knew that, it was never meant to be taken seriously, open your eyes to reality
as someone who was an obsessive tree climber from the age of 5 until disabled in my 50's in my 40's I was still so good that a friend of mine who ran a live performance company, most famously in a forest used me as specialist scaffolding erector reaching up into the canopy, which was quite low at about 40 feet, and I can testify that being bipedal is a huge advantage up in the trees. actually more so in terms of moving around than in the task i was performing. for a start it enabled me to walk along branches wit my arms spread wide which acted like a ballance pole as used by tightrope walkers. it also improved my reach to nearby branches. I believe that Orangutan behavior also shows this and the first time i came across that theory, I knew from experience that it was correct so I think we were walking upright in the trees and this by luck proved superior on the ground for many reasons
If you have any video footage of you climbing and traversing limbs of trees, you should post it with some text describing how you feel bipedalism would have been an advantage in locomotion in trees for any tree dwelling hominid. That would be interesting to see, since you were so good at it.
Dont say we evolved from the apes, instead say we have a common ancestor . You're confusing the creationist and they will say something stupid like " Why are there still apes?"
Biology , geology , anthropology . Life is different now than it was millions of years ago through a process called natural selection . These fields dont assume anything . They are very critical ,
Such an interesting documentary. I did a genome test awhile ago and had a small portion of unknown genes thought to be Neanderthal. I have always wondered what that meant. This programme has shed great light on those results.
Christmas is a culmination of pagan celebrations for the winter solstice. I am a creationist. Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
A talking snake, Mr. Magic Man (God), Mr. Zombie Man( Jesus), angels, people living to the age of 930 years, a global flood, and a stone that God himself cannot lift - Those things are fairy tales! The fact that there are people out there that cannot differentiate between reality and fairytales speaks volumes.
You clearly have ZERO understanding of the Bible. 85% of the world believes in a God for a reason. Something in us draws us there. And, no one has ever or will ever prove there is no God, you cannot prove a Negative. So you can't provide anymore evidence you are correct than I can (without using my Bible). It is a BELIEF either way. You BELIEVE there is no God. The ONLY people that know what happens when we die are already dead and unable to tell us. Finally, science/evolution and Christianity/the Bible are not mutually exclusive if you understand both, both can be true. Just because you haven't seen proof of something doesn't mean it doesn't exist or that other people are crazy because they feel they've seen proof in the other direction.
Thanks for this video. In the 1970s, I took several elective classes in human evolution and anthropology. At the time, the conventional wisdom asserted that upright posture and bipedalism arose out of necessity when apes moved out of the trees into the savanna. I disputed that paradigm, and wrote a thesis arguing that upright posture and bipedalism probably developed in the trees, using gibbon locomotion and anatomy as my examples. Needless to say, I was thrilled to hear others have reached the same assumption.
@@lawneymalbrough4309 Thanks. My professor congratulated me on an interesting idea, but I never expected any recognition beyond that. It never even occurred to me to try and publish the paper.
@@mseeling7647 Congratulation on a good idea. But as you know, science require more then just a clever hypothesis. It need proven evidence. And that is a problem in this case. You need at last do a research to bio-mechanics of gibbon , orangutans and comparison the analysis of their anatomical features to they way of movement in nature. Even the theory in this video doesn't say how deep are this scientist papers on this problem. But still we can't prove this by 100 %, because we can't prove it experimentally. We will need travel back in time and recorded the process of the evolution of bipedal-ism. That something can develop this way doesn't mean that it really happen this way. But your experience show another important feature of our current civilization problem - the "authority" effect. Your professor congratulated you on the thesis and that was all. Himself didn't want to challenge the common theory, so you follow his example and do not consider your idea important. This how our schooling system for centuries in all countries is distorting the independent and creative thinking. A number of people did an important discoveries, because they were not a formally educate in their branch of science, where they made discovery. For example Schliemann who discover the city of Troy.

Yes, I sadly Fast Forward a minute every time the background music becomes so loud and obnoxious, and so I ended up missing at least half of this. It's almost as if someone put a spooky Halloween drumbeat recording on alongside this documentary! This will lose many viewers who are sensitive to sounds, just like flickering and flashing video can do the same to those with visual sensitivities (often, we are the same people). And it's not just a complaint: it is a neurological condition that makes listening and viewing some content literally painful and producing real neurological symptoms, ironically a condition perhaps inherited and passed on down from these earlier primate cousins! - j q t -
I rewatch this docu once in a while because it's just a few hours drive from Nairobi, where I live... I will hopefully be recording my trips to some of these sites in the near future.
Also, by the way. Without the scientists expertise and their ability to date the bone, there would be now way to even know whether or not the discovery deserves praise.
Astounding. Always thought that an adaptation evolves before the need for it. E.g. Birds had wings before they learnt to fly. Animals developed lungs before they moved on land. Human ancestors too were upright before they began walking on land.
I think I heard about a type of animal/fish/reptile that does have lungs and gils so it can still breathe while moving from one body of water to another. Do you by chance know of what creature that is?
I apologize.i dont believe in Evolution. They say the sealion became a lion and lives on land.what??? If humans came from an ape or chimpanzee,IF EVOLVE REALLY HAPPENS a million yrs ago,then why they are still apes,chimpanzee that dont evolve as humans??isn't it unfair for them that they are still ape or chimpanzee up to this day? And if humans from a thousand years evolved,why didnt we have wings?or ran like a tiger?or climb fast like apes or chimpanzees? We are so special that God has created Us. A man that has a surgery replaced by a heart of chimpanzee.he was alive 48hours but he later died bec. Man has 46chromosomes Chimpanzee has 48 chromosomes 2differential chromosomes is equivalent to 80million nucleotides. We are special than animals.
@@reinaeimu you don't have to believe it.😉 Lot's of people don't. ✌For me there's just far too much unknown, too many gaps, to believe it, evolution from apes to humans I mean...but as humans we just want to make sense of things.. I wish they'd just say WE DON'T KNOW! The history of earth, space, humanity is just too vast to wrap our minds around.
I mean, obviously for every new adaptation there must be *something* before: innovation always builds on what is present before. But the adaptions never happen by themselves in preparation for some transition to a new style of moving/eating/whatever, they happen because they are themselves useful in the moment. Animals developed lungs before they moved on land: what does "on land" mean? Living all your life on land? Amphibians (e.g. frogs and salamanders) still aren't there. If it's just spending lots of time on land, that started way earlier with fish which needed to drag themselves from puddle to puddle. Birds had wings before they learned to fly: well, what does 'fly' mean? Powered flight, e.g. flapping in the air and going higher? Then yes, they did have wings, but those wings were already used for gliding. The theme here is that the adaptation precedes the new ability, but only because the adaptation offered some benefit by getting the creature *some* of the way to having that new ability. For us humans, crawling is better than sitting still, and walking is better than crawling. We don't sit still for 14 months after birth and then suddenly pop up on two legs and start racing about.
Love the line-up of hominin generations. Definitely aids in visualizing the immense age. AND the extreme rarity of these fossils is amazing. A couple hominin fossils per million years until we get to about 3mya - and then a little bit more frequent. Not much.

I have some issues with the analysis at 24 minutes about the femur. If I am missing something, please let me know. 1. Wrong Force & Stress Analysis: The pelvis tilt muscles (gluteus medius & minimus + 3 others) pull on the femur as shown at 24.23 minutes. These muscle forces plus the weight running down the body’s center of gravity, with pelvis level, causes a downward force on the head of the femur of about 2.4 times body weight, when the body is standing on one leg or during part of the walking gait. Muscle force is 1.0 to 1.6 times body weight. The video at 24.25 claims that the muscle forces reduce the stress/force on top of the femur neck and adds greater stress at the bottom of the femur neck. But the muscle forces do the exact opposite at the top. These muscles actually increase 4 things: force on the ball, shear force & stress on the neck, tension on the top of the neck, and also compression on the bottom (due to bending moment). The muscle forces keep the pelvis from tipping during walking or standing on one foot and also stabilizes the joint. Without muscles holding the femur to the pelvis with strong forces, a creature would be unstable, like balancing 150 pound box on 2 two sticks with ball bearing between the box and sticks. The combined 2.4x body weight force applies a shear force all along the femur neck cantilever arm and equal shear stress in every part of a crossection. The shear stress is largest at the smallest area of the neck. And equally stressful is the moment that is applied to the arm. The moment is low at the neck near the ball where the level arm is least. And it is high down the neck near the shaft, and also high in the vertical bone shaft about a neck’s distance down the shaft. A femur is designed perfectly to handle both shear and moment. Bone fractures are found commonly in both the highest shear area and highest moment area. This all assume an average person with average walking gait. 2. Bone Density Distribution is Irrelevant for Shear: The shear strength of the bone does not depend upon the distribution of bone density through a crossection unless there is a grossly irregular pattern. 3. Ape Walk Too: Apes and monkeys support their weight on their legs in trees and one the ground. These legs were made for walking, etc. They jump around and jump out of trees landing on their feet then arms, then body. Some jumps seem to be taking a shortcut, and not a mistake or escape from danger. They certainly do need femur strength. I have seen Monkeys and apes jump up and land on their feet, which results in high impact forces to the femur. 4. Quadrupedal Have Same Design: Consider the 24.32 minute video statement, “In a bipedal animal the underside of the neck becomes thicker to support the extra weight. And this hidden feature can provide the conclusive evidence needed by the team. So if Orrorin has thick bone on the bottom and thin bone on the top, then it would provide really good evidence that this thing walked on two legs.” Actually, animals from dinosaurs to cats & dogs, monkeys & plataplus, (bipedal and quadrupedal alike) all have hind legs with ball socket and cantilever neck. All these walk and jump on these joints so they must have ample strength thoughout the femur neck. They all have a suitable neck geometry (tapered neck) to handle the moment stresses; and have no need for thicker bone at the bottom. The CT scans I’ve seen of human femurs show equal thickness of compact (outer, dense) bone on the bottom and top of the neck at the neck near the ball. This again is the opposite of the claims. 5. Fossilization isn’t a Perfect Picture: The density of the fossilization doesn’t perfectly match the original bone density. This is obvious in many sections where dark area extending into the core have round holes remaining. Round holes indicates spongy bone. There are no such holes in compact bone. Also, in some sections, some compact bone isn’t even mineralize as indicated by light areas at the surface. The assumption that mineralization density follows the original bone density is only generally true, but sometimes far from perfect as we see here. Sometimes compact bone is dissolved on one area and mineralization is very light there. Cracks in the bone can feed one area of spongy bone with minerals more than others; filling the spongy area irregularly. I have many fossil cross-sections where mineralization is irregular, or even absent leaving holes. 6. No Good Comparisons: We need to see CT scans of modern apes, monkey, man and several fossil femurs; and also have tensile strength measures for both compact and spongy bone. Then we could properly compare the bone density and distribution of each. Then maybe we could tease out an inference based upon this one feature. 7. Density does not Equal Strength: It isn’t the amount of calcium in the bone that alone determines strength. Bone strength depends on health factors such as ample magnesium, micronutrients, low fluoride, etc. It was found that some drugs that increased bone density in the elderly did not increase bone strength. Adding sand to the center of a baseball bat doesn’t make it stronger. Bone density is only first-order rough approximation of strength. 8. Strength Needed at Top, not Bottom: While shear doesn’t essentially depend upon density distribution, moment stresses certainly do. Since bone is about twice as strong in compression as tension (30 KSI compression and 15 KSI tension), and the femur neck and shaft are in tension at the top, extra bone strength would be best placed at the top. This is reverse from that stated in the video. The high moment stresses extend down the shaft about the length of the neck. It would be interesting to know the density distribution down the neck for several fossil femurs. Also at 32 .4 minutes I'm not sure what is the point of the humerus flare. The Millennium Man humerus (upper arm) bone flares out at one end; called the bottom (elbow end) in the video, at 32.40 minutes. The video states that the flare is an indication of attachment points for powerful ape-like arm muscles, required for climbing trees. I get the following flare ratios (elbow width to shaft diameter. It depends on the shaft diameter chosen. I can only scale the measurement off of the video for Millennium Man. I see no difference. Human 2.3 to 3.0 Millennium Man 2.47 Chimpanzee 2.37

What problem do some Americans have with evolution? I literal know no one in the UK who doesn't believe humans evolved, and most of my family are religious.
Gary Conyers-Davies There’s a lot of Americans who reject the idea of evolution due to evangelist leanings. I think surveys are showing that more people over here are turning around on the matter, although we still have politicians in our Congress who would like to remove the theory from school curriculum
Super cool. I loved seeing the part about the generations and the branching. I’ve seen diagrams on this but really mapping it out and explaining was very eye-opening. This is an incredible documentary
However, that branching diagram was missing the parts where some of the branches fuse together as close enough species came back in contact and reproduced with each other (like happened between us and Neanderthals a couple of times). It's more like a web and less like a tree.
Excellent video! I learned so many new things, my mind was blown over the connection they saw in the bone groove left by the muscle on the leg/pelvis. Great lesson in close observation and critical thinking for myself and my students.

It’s an amazing find and also showcases how bones and other fossils can only go back so far and let’s be honest we don’t know enough to say this is the earliest
Keith-- Exactly! It's something that annoys the heck outta me. Not just that it's so short-sighted, it helps create a mind-set that colors all subsequent finds and ultimately slows down advancement in putting the picture of our history together. The wording and even more-so the thinking needs to be "the earliest SO FAR found." I do understand you don't want every new find to be thought of as evidence of a progression; neither do I want every popular find to be considered the end of the trail. Seems a ridiculous approach to any kind of investigating. You found what you're looking for-- everyone pack up and go home. I suspect there is evidence around for lots of exciting revelations, but mainstream thinking will keep it hidden for eons.
A huge leap to call this the first human when there must have been many contenders. This is simply one more in a long line of ancestral possibilities, many that will never be discovered.
Ah, but you are missing the most important point. This is the only one of those possibilities they found therefore it must be a human ancestor. Yes you are correct. There were most likely a proliferation of populations some of which may have amounted to truly different species and most of which weren't human ancestors. It is possible that several contributed fragments of DNA which got passed down.
Around 6 million years ago is when our lineage split from the ancestors of chimps,( according to genetic analysis) so finding a fossil that old with human characteristic would make it more likely to be a direct ancestor.
Sea meet the land, day followed by night , beautiful animals in which human get so many benefits out of them such as food, milk and clothes and others.

A human body that is very complex and very intelligent that has Integumentary System, Skeletal System, Muscular System, Nervous System, Endocrine System, Cardiovascular System, Lymphatic System, Respiratory System, Digestive System, Urinary System, and Reproductive System.... and then you want me to believe in the evolution theory?

Gravity is also a theory. Jump off the nearest overpass to test it. love it lol . funny how evolution is the basis of biology, an empirical proven fact. but people still call evolution a theory
It is good that it is called a theory. Anything called a theory is fungible, hence can grow and adapt with new data. Contrasted with dogma, which cannot grow.
Well it's called Theory in a different way in science than in normal conversation. A theory in science is something that has been proven time and time again, a hypothesis in science is more comparable to theory in normal conversation.

Humans as a whole are such a new species and live such short life spans that mother nature rarely had to answer the question: " What happens when humans lose their second set of teeth?" It was something few humans had to deal with because they were long dead before that happened.
Toothaches probably didn't exist they didn't live long enough with all those predators hunting us. Probably EVERYBODY died that way. NOT a very pleasant thought but the scavengers had a feast for sure. Probably why only pieces of bone were ever found most of us were simply digested as food.

@@jordanrobinson9379 Jordan, just because you don’t understand evolution, does not mean that it isn’t true. I recommend you read some introductory books on evolution because based on your comment, you’re not too sure how it works. Plus, a “theory” in science can colloquially be called a fact. A scientific theory is an idea that is backed up by overwhelming evidence, intensely peer reviewed, and proved in all facets.
I'll help lend a machete to your intellectual thicket..
Those bones were NOT found at the same location. In fact they were miles apart.. The local Kenyan who had found a jaw fragment "that appeared to be early hominid", reported his finding. Then of course Europeans were sent to investigate but found NOTHING at the site of the discovery.
Those other bones were each found miles apart and at different depths. Those facts are conveniently left out.
Also facts are that this "discovery" has been widely disputed even among anthropologists and argued that it's merely a collection of extinct ape bones scattered miles apart. Now, had the Kenyan discovered a nearly intact, nearly complete skeleton with a skull.....which has NEVER been discovered btw. It's a difderent story then.
Large collections of what could be early hominids bones have been discovered together in one place. But the bones were fragmented as if dashed to peices.

But from such simple beginnings evolved our visual organs. Interestingly the ocular fluid of our eye today has the same salinity as the ancient seas from whence it evolved.

Looking at my foot, I understand immediately that such a contraption takes time to develop from, I suppose, something like a normal paw. Probably our foot gave us possibilities to survive during periods of extreme weather, i.e. periods of drought. I once visited a flood estuary with mangrove trees in west Africa and was surprised of the enormous amount of easily caught food in the form of crabs, fish, mussels and a variety of crustaceans. I became convinced if an ape learned to live here, he would have good chances to survive the severest of times, provided he could stand still and steady on his feet.

After watching the segment of the video on orangutans, I was struck how similar in structure their young are to our own babies. The legs of both very young human babies and orangutans splay at the hips allowing each to be carried on an adult hip. When our babies learn to stand upright, their legs still splay with knees pointing more toward the sides. As human babies develop, the their knees become more oriented toward the front and the arms are used to allow independent movement by clutching at chairs, coffee tables, or a convenient adult leg, rather than a convenient branch.
If you ever seen their skeleton compared to ours you would see they are nothing at all like us and they basically have four hands that they walk on!!!

Nice
The greatest fact to me is that Jesus rose from the grave and was seen by many people Lucy is only 40% of monkey bones and they added 60% human bone and made it walk. Think about it would you be willing to die for Lucy? Look how many Christians lost their lifes for Jesus they knew who he was they seen the resurection the healing the prophecy's. And one thing the Roman's were very good at was cruifying people that was what they were known for. And they had guards Jew guards and Roman guards blocking his tomb they seen him with his glorified body and they seen angels. And when Jesus died it was 12 noon and it turned black for 3 hours and there was a huge earth quake. They have so many documents from people in that time reporting on it there is so much proof research it and you will see. And the only one I know of in history or anytime was Jesus who could raise himself from the deal and many other people and they have evidence of everything.

9:47 to 12:20 is such an awesome, very fleshed out visualization of evolution. Man that is incredible
as someone who was an obsessive tree climber from the age of 5 until disabled in my 50's in my 40's I was still so good that a friend of mine who ran a live performance company, most famously in a forest used me as specialist scaffolding erector reaching up into the canopy, which was quite low at about 40 feet, and I can testify that being bipedal is a huge advantage up in the trees. actually more so in terms of moving around than in the task i was performing. for a start it enabled me to walk along branches wit my arms spread wide which acted like a ballance pole as used by tightrope walkers. it also improved my reach to nearby branches. I believe that Orangutan behavior also shows this and the first time i came across that theory, I knew from experience that it was correct so I think we were walking upright in the trees and this by luck proved superior on the ground for many reasons
If you have any video footage of you climbing and traversing limbs of trees, you should post it with some text describing how you feel bipedalism would have been an advantage in locomotion in trees for any tree dwelling hominid. That would be interesting to see, since you were so good at it.

You clearly have ZERO understanding of the Bible. 85% of the world believes in a God for a reason. Something in us draws us there. And, no one has ever or will ever prove there is no God, you cannot prove a Negative. So you can't provide anymore evidence you are correct than I can (without using my Bible). It is a BELIEF either way. You BELIEVE there is no God. The ONLY people that know what happens when we die are already dead and unable to tell us. Finally, science/evolution and Christianity/the Bible are not mutually exclusive if you understand both, both can be true. Just because you haven't seen proof of something doesn't mean it doesn't exist or that other people are crazy because they feel they've seen proof in the other direction.
Imagine bipedal small humanoids running around in the bushes with probably the attentionspan of a human!! So cool!
Ha!! that made me laugh :)
Thanks for this video. In the 1970s, I took several elective classes in human evolution and anthropology. At the time, the conventional wisdom asserted that upright posture and bipedalism arose out of necessity when apes moved out of the trees into the savanna. I disputed that paradigm, and wrote a thesis arguing that upright posture and bipedalism probably developed in the trees, using gibbon locomotion and anatomy as my examples. Needless to say, I was thrilled to hear others have reached the same assumption.
But you did not get recognition. Too bad.
@@lawneymalbrough4309 Thanks. My professor congratulated me on an interesting idea, but I never expected any recognition beyond that. It never even occurred to me to try and publish the paper.
@@mseeling7647 Congratulation on a good idea. But as you know, science require more then just a clever hypothesis. It need proven evidence. And that is a problem in this case. You need at last do a research to bio-mechanics of gibbon , orangutans and comparison the analysis of their anatomical features to they way of movement in nature. Even the theory in this video doesn't say how deep are this scientist papers on this problem. But still we can't prove this by 100 %, because we can't prove it experimentally. We will need travel back in time and recorded the process of the evolution of bipedal-ism. That something can develop this way doesn't mean that it really happen this way. But your experience show another important feature of our current civilization problem - the "authority" effect. Your professor congratulated you on the thesis and that was all. Himself didn't want to challenge the common theory, so you follow his example and do not consider your idea important. This how our schooling system for centuries in all countries is distorting the independent and creative thinking. A number of people did an important discoveries, because they were not a formally educate in their branch of science, where they made discovery. For example Schliemann who discover the city of Troy.

Astounding. Always thought that an adaptation evolves before the need for it. E.g. Birds had wings before they learnt to fly. Animals developed lungs before they moved on land. Human ancestors too were upright before they began walking on land.

@@reinaeimu you don't have to believe it.😉 Lot's of people don't. ✌For me there's just far too much unknown, too many gaps, to believe it, evolution from apes to humans I mean...but as humans we just want to make sense of things.. I wish they'd just say WE DON'T KNOW! The history of earth, space, humanity is just too vast to wrap our minds around.
I mean, obviously for every new adaptation there must be *something* before: innovation always builds on what is present before. But the adaptions never happen by themselves in preparation for some transition to a new style of moving/eating/whatever, they happen because they are themselves useful in the moment.
Animals developed lungs before they moved on land: what does "on land" mean? Living all your life on land? Amphibians (e.g. frogs and salamanders) still aren't there. If it's just spending lots of time on land, that started way earlier with fish which needed to drag themselves from puddle to puddle.
Birds had wings before they learned to fly: well, what does 'fly' mean? Powered flight, e.g. flapping in the air and going higher? Then yes, they did have wings, but those wings were already used for gliding.
The theme here is that the adaptation precedes the new ability, but only because the adaptation offered some benefit by getting the creature *some* of the way to having that new ability. For us humans, crawling is better than sitting still, and walking is better than crawling. We don't sit still for 14 months after birth and then suddenly pop up on two legs and start racing about.
Say "hello to your grandparents" - that is funny and profound.
Love the line-up of hominin generations. Definitely aids in visualizing the immense age. AND the extreme rarity of these fossils is amazing. A couple hominin fossils per million years until we get to about 3mya - and then a little bit more frequent. Not much.

Creepy.
I have some issues with the analysis at 24 minutes about the femur. If I am missing something, please let me know.
1. Wrong Force & Stress Analysis: The pelvis tilt muscles (gluteus medius & minimus + 3 others) pull on the femur as shown at 24.23 minutes. These muscle forces plus the weight running down the body’s center of gravity, with pelvis level, causes a downward force on the head of the femur of about 2.4 times body weight, when the body is standing on one leg or during part of the walking gait. Muscle force is 1.0 to 1.6 times body weight. The video at 24.25 claims that the muscle forces reduce the stress/force on top of the femur neck and adds greater stress at the bottom of the femur neck. But the muscle forces do the exact opposite at the top. These muscles actually increase 4 things: force on the ball, shear force & stress on the neck, tension on the top of the neck, and also compression on the bottom (due to bending moment). The muscle forces keep the pelvis from tipping during walking or standing on one foot and also stabilizes the joint. Without muscles holding the femur to the pelvis with strong forces, a creature would be unstable, like balancing 150 pound box on 2 two sticks with ball bearing between the box and sticks. The combined 2.4x body weight force applies a shear force all along the femur neck cantilever arm and equal shear stress in every part of a crossection. The shear stress is largest at the smallest area of the neck. And equally stressful is the moment that is applied to the arm. The moment is low at the neck near the ball where the level arm is least. And it is high down the neck near the shaft, and also high in the vertical bone shaft about a neck’s distance down the shaft. A femur is designed perfectly to handle both shear and moment. Bone fractures are found commonly in both the highest shear area and highest moment area. This all assume an average person with average walking gait.
2. Bone Density Distribution is Irrelevant for Shear: The shear strength of the bone does not depend upon the distribution of bone density through a crossection unless there is a grossly irregular pattern.
3. Ape Walk Too: Apes and monkeys support their weight on their legs in trees and one the ground. These legs were made for walking, etc. They jump around and jump out of trees landing on their feet then arms, then body. Some jumps seem to be taking a shortcut, and not a mistake or escape from danger. They certainly do need femur strength. I have seen Monkeys and apes jump up and land on their feet, which results in high impact forces to the femur.
4. Quadrupedal Have Same Design: Consider the 24.32 minute video statement, “In a bipedal animal the underside of the neck becomes thicker to support the extra weight. And this hidden feature can provide the conclusive evidence needed by the team. So if Orrorin has thick bone on the bottom and thin bone on the top, then it would provide really good evidence that this thing walked on two legs.” Actually, animals from dinosaurs to cats & dogs, monkeys & plataplus, (bipedal and quadrupedal alike) all have hind legs with ball socket and cantilever neck. All these walk and jump on these joints so they must have ample strength thoughout the femur neck. They all have a suitable neck geometry (tapered neck) to handle the moment stresses; and have no need for thicker bone at the bottom. The CT scans I’ve seen of human femurs show equal thickness of compact (outer, dense) bone on the bottom and top of the neck at the neck near the ball. This again is the opposite of the claims.
5. Fossilization isn’t a Perfect Picture: The density of the fossilization doesn’t perfectly match the original bone density. This is obvious in many sections where dark area extending into the core have round holes remaining. Round holes indicates spongy bone. There are no such holes in compact bone. Also, in some sections, some compact bone isn’t even mineralize as indicated by light areas at the surface. The assumption that mineralization density follows the original bone density is only generally true, but sometimes far from perfect as we see here. Sometimes compact bone is dissolved on one area and mineralization is very light there. Cracks in the bone can feed one area of spongy bone with minerals more than others; filling the spongy area irregularly. I have many fossil cross-sections where mineralization is irregular, or even absent leaving holes.
6. No Good Comparisons: We need to see CT scans of modern apes, monkey, man and several fossil femurs; and also have tensile strength measures for both compact and spongy bone. Then we could properly compare the bone density and distribution of each. Then maybe we could tease out an inference based upon this one feature.
7. Density does not Equal Strength: It isn’t the amount of calcium in the bone that alone determines strength. Bone strength depends on health factors such as ample magnesium, micronutrients, low fluoride, etc. It was found that some drugs that increased bone density in the elderly did not increase bone strength. Adding sand to the center of a baseball bat doesn’t make it stronger. Bone density is only first-order rough approximation of strength.
8. Strength Needed at Top, not Bottom: While shear doesn’t essentially depend upon density distribution, moment stresses certainly do. Since bone is about twice as strong in compression as tension (30 KSI compression and 15 KSI tension), and the femur neck and shaft are in tension at the top, extra bone strength would be best placed at the top. This is reverse from that stated in the video. The high moment stresses extend down the shaft about the length of the neck. It would be interesting to know the density distribution down the neck for several fossil femurs.
Also at 32 .4 minutes I'm not sure what is the point of the humerus flare.
The Millennium Man humerus (upper arm) bone flares out at one end; called the bottom (elbow end) in the video, at 32.40 minutes. The video states that the flare is an indication of attachment points for powerful ape-like arm muscles, required for climbing trees. I get the following flare ratios (elbow width to shaft diameter. It depends on the shaft diameter chosen. I can only scale the measurement off of the video for Millennium Man. I see no difference.
Human 2.3 to 3.0
Millennium Man 2.47
Chimpanzee 2.37

When it comes to fossils, when scientists say they are the "earliest", it is implied that it's "that we've uncovered so far."

A huge leap to call this the first human when there must have been many contenders. This is simply one more in a long line of ancestral possibilities, many that will never be discovered.
Ah, but you are missing the most important point. This is the only one of those possibilities they found therefore it must be a human ancestor.
Yes you are correct. There were most likely a proliferation of populations some of which may have amounted to truly different species and most of which weren't human ancestors. It is possible that several contributed fragments of DNA which got passed down.
Around 6 million years ago is when our lineage split from the ancestors of chimps,( according to genetic analysis) so finding a fossil that old with human characteristic would make it more likely to be a direct ancestor.
"A huge leap to call this the first human"
They are referring to a species level, not an individual level
@@MrGreensweightHist I agree, but I would say genus rather than species.
@@tirebyter9437 True. My mistake.
I am a historian rather than a biologist
Great documentary. I love it!
Sea meet the land, day followed by night , beautiful animals in which human get so many benefits out of them such as food, milk and clothes and others. A bee that produce honey that acts as food and medicine for mankind. Trees that you get your fruit and vegetables from. A perfect life cycle. A human body that is very complex and very intelligent that has Integumentary System, Skeletal System, Muscular System, Nervous System, Endocrine System, Cardiovascular System, Lymphatic System, Respiratory System, Digestive System, Urinary System, and Reproductive System.... and then you want me to believe in the evolution theory?
Everything around you indicates to the oneness of the Creator, but most of people are living in headlessness and most of them are following their desires.
My advice:- Read Quran
@@AgainstNeWorldOrderall knowledge of Qur'an is an observational... nothing special in it...and we don't force u to believe in evolution..u r free to believe in bulshit fairytale of Qur'an ...and all the bodies organs are evolves over time..don't spread creation myth..we r evolved not created by imaginary allah😂
@@prashant.D__ your choice. Can't force you
This looks fascinating I have been really back into documentaries again
God created human. People need to stop this nonsense nobody evolved from apes no apes today are evolving into humans where did the first apple and orange seed come from? It didn't just pop out the sky God created the seeds
Gravity is also a theory. Jump off the nearest overpass to test it. love it lol . funny how evolution is the basis of biology, an empirical proven fact. but people still call evolution a theory
graham parker it is a theory tho
It is good that it is called a theory. Anything called a theory is fungible, hence can grow and adapt with new data. Contrasted with dogma, which cannot grow.
Well it's called Theory in a different way in science than in normal conversation. A theory in science is something that has been proven time and time again, a hypothesis in science is more comparable to theory in normal conversation.
@Susan Marx stop yelling lol that doesn't help anyone xD
@Susan Marx happy New year to you, I'm sorry for complaining about your text. Most apps have a settings option to make the font bigger, your phone should have it in "Accessibility". 😊
I was totally enthralled!
Compelling and thought provoking
I like how the place we call home (the earth) has seen many human species
Evolution of man started to go backwards. Donald Trump is evidence of that trend. Forward evolution ended with Donald Trump.
Not just human but all species. I like the Timelapse in the movie Lucy. It would be sick to really do that.
Ya well it's us that matter.
@@yolamontalvan9502 Evolution never stopped but if we are being honest with the start of modern society that's where evolution is being SLOWED DOWN not STOPED lol
@@yolamontalvan9502 really? He's a multi billionaire and potus, what higher bar is there? If he's the end? That's quite a big achievement
Not just the knee joint points towards bipedality, the foramin magnum is also diagnostic.
If the foramin magnum is under the skull instead of at the rear of the skull, that also points towards bipedality.
Yes the path of the nerves can tell a story
Fine if a skull is found, but these remains lack one.
"We" did not suddenly decide to stand up and walk. The environmental pressures came about over hundreds of thousands of years...
Ok another expert.
@@Roosterbate44 Oppuse by name Oppose by nature?
Helllllllllllllllllo
The native discovered is not mentioned with his complete name and surname but the film quickly mentioned the complete name and the surname of the cientifics and that in a very short time they arrived and make findings BY THEIR OWN. I would like the intervention of the native discover will remain in history for ever. I know that being the first is so important but please give to that person the place in history he deserve.
Humans as a whole are such a new species and live such short life spans that mother nature rarely had to answer the question: " What happens when humans lose their second set of teeth?" It was something few humans had to deal with because they were long dead before that happened.
and then they didnt eat industrial trash food. and no sweets,
Toothaches probably didn't exist they didn't live long enough with all those predators hunting us. Probably EVERYBODY died that way. NOT a very pleasant thought but the scavengers had a feast for sure. Probably why only pieces of bone were ever found most of us were simply digested as food. Fortunately there was a lotta sloppy eaters back then.
There is lots of evidence to show early hunter-gatherers looking after members of their tribe well into old age…
Different blood types and how they formed is something I would like to know more about.
