I love how nature can preserve events that happened millions of years ago through the archeological record, and then we can to a certain extent reimagine all of the fascinating histories that it has to tell! I don't know how this channel hasn't gotten more attention, I really like how you go to the places you're talking about, it really makes me feel like I'm watching a mini documentary. Just one thing, does anyone know the name of the song in the end, the one that plays during the summary of the facts at the end?
Hi, thanks so much for your support - love the enthusiasm! All the music is written by us specifically for each video. The music for this episode was called "DinoDisco.mp3" but don't think that what you were asking for! I'll check with the composer in the morning and let you know if there were any songs that inspired that section. -James
@@AtomicFrontier Ah, that's very cool, didn't know that the music was specifically written for the channel. The one for this video felt a bit familiar, so I would love to know if part of it was inspired by some other song.
Looks like the whole piece was origional, although there is some inspiration from the Westworld and Jurassic Park themes. Good idea about uploading the tracks to a second channel, will have to consider it.
I've been checking out more and more of your videos lately and loving all of them, but I think this one has amazed me the most. Something about presenting this as a detective's case and inferring what happened millions of years ago really clicked for me in a way that nothing else has so far. It is so awesome to imagine these magnificent creatures interacting, and unfortunate to never get to witness one. What a cool way to portray it. I also really liked the caramel slices analogy.
Its stunning to see the exact places where dinosaurs passed through and how these connect us with being who lived so long ago. We are so lucky to see these and i so hope they can be preserved.
I rarely comment on RUclips, but your videos are brilliant, suiting original and easy to follow analogies, great visuals and commentary and content. It’s like kurzgesagt veritasium, Tom Scott and all of the other brilliant science channels combined with enthusiasm and a tv documentary documentary distilled to their best form. I wish you all the best and hope that you can inspire new creators to rise to your level and exceed it. Because that is a future that will be great.
Except with not quite the research skills. If he did he would have realized the the Brontosaurus never existed (it's called an Apatosaurus) and that they lived in the western United States, not "this very spot" in Perth like he says.
@@fourthpanda no, brontosaurus is real. It was declared a separate genus in 2015, and the continent that became North America , Laurentia, also included scotland.
@@fourthpanda “Although the type species, B. excelsus, had long been considered a species of the closely related Apatosaurus, researchers proposed in 2015 that Brontosaurus is a genus separate from Apatosaurus and that it contains three species: B. excelsus, B. yahnahpin, and B. parvus.” -Wikipedia. I now do realize I got the locations wrong, having misread it as the eastern us
Dude. This shit is LIT! Love the pacing of the content, the in depth information, the well written dialogue, the video editing is super pleasant! 10/10 so far bro.
For the pastry its 1 cup flour, ½ cup brown sugar, ½ cup desiccated coconut and 125g butter. For the caramel its 125g butter, ½ cup brown sugar, 1 tsp vanilla extract and 295g condensed milk. Then I used as much chocolate as I had in the fridge. Prehistoric mud and dinosaur toenails are optional extras. Enjoy!
@@alira7296 butter is grams in Australia. There’s like a little mark on the pap per wrapping telling you to cut the stick here for 125g, 125g,125g, you get the idea...
I've just discovered your channel through Tom Scott I find your videos incredible and I commend all the effort you put in. I'm an Aussie and when I was traveling up in Broome, seeing the dinosaur footprints was an incredible yet confusing sight and I truly loved your explanation and it was very informative. Thank you and keep it up!
p sure it wouldnt be a tarbosaurus cause i doubt your out there in the gobi desert and brontosaurus is 1) invalid and is actually Apatosaurus and 2) lived in late jurassic Morrison in the US
Yea it kinda irks me that he does the whole BBC presenter speech making you think he knows what hes talking about but as soon as he said Brontosaurus I was like "he said what now???"
Thanks. Chose those two as they were the only ones available in the Melbourne museum and wanted a skeleton to compare with. Will make that more obvious next time. Thanks!
Crazy how well connected the world is and yet there is still so much mystery! Imagine how many more tracks are out there just begging to be discovered!
that's wasn't a crime...and, while we now think that dinosaur insurance did 'act of God' coverage.... most dinosaur claims adjusters were atheists and saw it as an act of nature, not God. go figure. ....anyway, if you're interested, you can read more about it in the Bible! 🎉 🥸
Really well made and informative video! But rather the dinosaurs being identified as Brontosaurus and Tarbosaurus (neither of which lived in Australia and in completely separate eras), they likely belonged to species belonging to unique families native to early Cretaceous Australia. Namely megaraptoroid theropods and titanosaurian sauropods.
So, is it possible that the scale of the footprints got skewed overtime as well, due to the pressure of the upper layers? Which means that the size of the footprints might have not been accurate to the actual size of the dinosaurs. Is it possible?
Shouldn't the footprints be largely deformed by continental drift over millions of years and the crushing weight of the sediment on top? Doesn't that effect the inferences of spacing/ depth of track?
Birds are dinosaurs and many of them tend to their young. It only makes sense that their ancestors did as well. Though it almost certainly differed from species to species. There has been findings of nonavian dinosaurs traveling in herds and dying in the same location and stuff like that. Also egg nests have been found were the eggs are layed out in circles for the mother or father to be in the middle and look after them. So its not a far stretch to imagine a lot of them being pretty good parents.
Great editing, solid subjects, excellent personal additions to textbook knowledge. Can I resist nitpickinganyway? nope :p Pacing could use some work, as its currently quite monotone and could use some dramatic/rhetorical breaks to let the points sink in... Nitpicking done... Keep up the good work!

This video is really great. But I do have a question, do you like playing cricket? It's strange to ask our american friends about cricket, lol. But as I'm from India, cricket is like fever all around, so how about you?
Someone find a pic of a t rex skeleton in the ground or pic of any part of a t rex. The ones in the museum are not real lol i know my mom retired from one. The stuff people with believe.
You have your scale all wrong when you tell the story of what happened. A predator that only 'catches sight' of a brontosaurus when it is only a mere four steps away needs to buy itself some glasses.
Ground penetrating radar is not new for archeology. Its been done for more than 20 years. The tv show "Time team" used it in every episode in the 1990's
A nice journey into the land of Hollywood and imagination of a geologist called darwin, no one can really say that a creature with skin and guts they call a nodosaur is any older than thousands of years, and Cambridge University studies back this up when they show that Australian Aborigines languages are only 4000 years old, and iron plate and magnetite traces found by Dominique goerlitz in the Giza Pyramid prove the Iron Age matche the history of the Bible, not the absurd Iron Age date you were taught n school, keep on assuming and imagining, or go and study the work of Kurt Wise and his flood model on Genesis is history, and follow up with the work of the “ six million dollar man” Steve austin , Andrew Snelling and Michael J Oard.
I'm gonna be stepping in my caramel slices now to test their consistency
Your commentary is getting more and more concerning....
how is this channel so unpopular, i'm waiting for it to blow up, because it's too good for 3k subs
Thanks for your support Adam! Welcome to the channel :D

Wow! 3k just 6 months ago?

Great work mate, so interesting seeing a hunt happening between these huge Animals.
"Now this could be because they were abducted by aliens--" I lost it 😆 hey who knows
Thank you for the information!!! It helps me a lot to make our feasib study.
Thats great! Hope it goes well

Chocolate layer looked a bit thin LOL. Love the content. Keep it up. Your Ted Talk is inspiring James!
What a great video!! 🙌🏽
Wow, very high quality
great addition, good music...
I don't usually comment , but your videos demand it! Keep up the good work and your channel will explode!

It did drive me nuts when he talked about 2 animals that would've never met. And one of the animals not have even existed.
Thanks. Chose those two as they were the only ones available in the Melbourne museum and wanted a skeleton to compare with. Will make that more obvious next time. Thanks!

This video is so well done i almost teared up unironically. Damn. Saved

This is the content I love , it Inspires me to learn new things.
Wow this is really underrated content. Keep it up!
This was so informative and interesting. Thank you
now im going to be scratching dinosaur footprints into my shortbread crusts
"For the world's oldest crime"
Dinosaurs minding their business then being inihilated by an asteroid: 😐
that's wasn't a crime...and, while we now think that dinosaur insurance did 'act of God' coverage.... most dinosaur claims adjusters were atheists and saw it as an act of nature, not God. go figure.

These videos are SO GOOD I wish all the best to your growth
Tom Scott sent me here. I'm staying!
Watching the cooking segment of the video, my brain is saying "eat the pudding eat the pudding eat the pudding". hehe
This channel is amazing and could probably join the likes of ItsOkayToBeSmart, Hot Mess, etc
Excellent video, excellent presentation. Very well done. I'm really enjoying this channel since discovering it this week.
Another great video.!,!!!
Nice one James!
Very good detective story was told
Thanks! It was fun to tell it
Can't believe I didn't find this channel earlier.
That is so cool. U won my subscription..
I love cooking videos
Me too but what was with the dinosaur thing?
kitchen, dinosaur beach then museum
i was not ready for all these location transitions xD
Nice work Jimmy
This is so well made HOW are the views so criminally low 😭😭

I LOST IT WHEN HE SAID THAT A DINOSAUR IS LOOKING SUS
So, is it possible that the scale of the footprints got skewed overtime as well, due to the pressure of the upper layers? Which means that the size of the footprints might have not been accurate to the actual size of the dinosaurs. Is it possible?
Great content
Downvote for choosing a Caramel Slice, and not something with chocolate in it...
[Adds chocolate]
Ok you win this time. This time.
nice video
That was awesome
how are you enjoying australia?
Shouldn't the footprints be largely deformed by continental drift over millions of years and the crushing weight of the sediment on top? Doesn't that effect the inferences of spacing/ depth of track?
this was so interesting, but the implication of tarbosaurus and brontosaurus coexisting temporally(let alone in Australia) is way off target
A little work with a compressor on the voice, and Bob's yer uncle.
3:53
it could also have been a father brontosaurus
hes got the tism right?
There are some great Dinosaur footprints in Winton, Queensland
When we do use ground penetrating radar, just remember to keep Sam Neil away. He's not machine compatible.
I live next to the set of prints Carnegie took for the science center its really neart to see
How do they know dinosaurs tended to their young ? I guess footprints tell a story and crocodiles do after hatching.
Birds are dinosaurs and many of them tend to their young. It only makes sense that their ancestors did as well. Though it almost certainly differed from species to species. There has been findings of nonavian dinosaurs traveling in herds and dying in the same location and stuff like that.

Heel toe heel toe slide slide slide repeat 🐸👽
Genuine question
How can we be sure that they actually met and nit just happened to cross the same spot an hour apart
How the fuck does this video not have more views and the channel not more subs?
me when he go to museum: OOOOoooOO lOOk, I BEen THERe!
Great editing, solid subjects, excellent personal additions to textbook knowledge. Can I resist nitpickinganyway? nope :p Pacing could use some work, as its currently quite monotone and could use some dramatic/rhetorical breaks to let the points sink in... Nitpicking done... Keep up the good work!

Wow
NASCAR Busts: Steve Wallace
Is it just me or did my iq multiply by 10 yay now I have 10iq
Just to add a funny element, you should add the recipe in the description. At least i would appreciate it...

Tarbosaurus do be looking kinda sus 😳

Haven't paleontologists ever heard of statute of limitations?
I'm guessing alternately...
3:16 sus
should have given the recipe.
Check the description...
you didn't show us the footprint in your cake...
🤯
Someone find a pic of a t rex skeleton in the ground or pic of any part of a t rex. The ones in the museum are not real lol i know my mom retired from one. The stuff people with believe.
6:33 "catching sight" from 4 steps away? Was it blind or something?
Your audio is either too loud or too quiet for me.
your videos are sick
You just said exactly what occurred 130 million years ago based on dents in the ground. Wow
You have your scale all wrong when you tell the story of what happened. A predator that only 'catches sight' of a brontosaurus when it is only a mere four steps away needs to buy itself some glasses.
British person with no kettle in the kitchen...
Very strange.
Australian, still a little odd. Looks to me like he's cleaned away everything before the shoot, maybe including his kettle.

"How Do Dinosaur Footprints Work?" -> Put gas and a battery in it and turn the ignition switch?
...her daughter... Not only does the narrator presume the sexes of the dinosaur but a parental bond that has not been established with such a species

Maybe theropod and sauropod would have been better terms
