I was suffering from a bit of writers block some time ago so I decided to go to the comments section of some of my previous videos for inspiration on what to talk about. And of course I knew I could count on all of you! I started noticing a pattern in what many of you were asking for. Many people have requested that I broadly cover different time periods from Earth’s history… And that got me thinking.

That was so very long ago now.....

We began with our planets fiery birth before there was a moon in the sky of water on the ground. We saw like go from tiny microbs to taking over the oceans. and eventually crawling up onto land. And all the while life was constantly being reset by mass extinctions. Causing animals to have to adapt or die!

It is the greatest story ever told, and this is only just the first chapter! This video will show you everything that happened before the Dinosaurs took over the world!

To learn more about the massive super predator fish Dunkleosteus, I highly recommend checking out Nature's Compendium! CHECK OUT HIS VIDEO HERE!    • Dunkleosteus | The Armored Mega CRONC...

    As someone raised in a religious household and was only taught what the young earth creationists wanted us to believe, THANK YOU! My mind is truly blown. There was so much I didn’t get to learn. Finding this video is better than Christmas morning.
  • @coreyhall5065
    Idk why, but out of all the species that died out in the late permian, the trilobites are always the one that dissapoints me the most. Those guys survived so long and through so much, they were little troops just chugging along. Wish they could've made it just a little longer to meet us. Or more accurately us meet them. They're also kind of adorable in some weird way
  • @LMarti13
    I'm laughing hysterically at the idea of someone watching this whole thing and being like "nah it's actually all 6000 years old"
  • @ArcticTron
    I like that you actually corrected the Dunkleosteus body length because that video was made before that paper came out that corrected its assumed body length.
  • @juphikie3559
    The fact that you went and modified the part about Dunkleosteus for this extended video is amazing, and shows this is more than just "Take the old videos and stitch them together"
  • @poogissploogis
    This video has become my comfort video that I listen to every night to help me overcome my insomnia and fall asleep. I love it so much
  • @kae5717
    The distant chanting of the cyanobacteria at the end of the Archean segment + the faint background music would be a hilariously great ambience video
  • @adamthespinygiant
    I have a Fan Theory: TimTim was the water molecule that Steve showed us in the Hadean Eon video. IT WAS DESTINY!!!!!
  • I don't understand why this video has become my "can't sleep" watch, but your voice has soothed me for countless nights over the last several months. Entertained me during my waking hours, too. I love your vids but man, I have really glommed onto this one. Thank you for all of your work!
  • @erinhowell6569
    Im a super fan of prehistory (before the dinosaurs). So much life and variety of just... what would feel like alien creatures. Its amazing!

    The Great Dying in particular hit my younger self very, very hard. I attribute my learning of it to be one of the reasons I "sobered" up to mortality even in a family where tragedy was fairly common. Obviously it had no effect on my survivor's guilt, but it challenged the 11-year old me to truly absorb the definition of luck. It's been a painful ride for my human ancestors to make it to me, but something like the Great Dying just hit different in a way you don't really see outside of fiction.
  • @akumaking1
    The perfect ASMR video for either a long trip and/or to fall asleep to (not at the same time of course!)
  • @anticksss
    One of the greatest tragedies of life on earth is that trilobites didn't survive to modern day. I want a pet trlobite so bad, they're such cool little guys
  • @williamreely3455
    "Earth lore" I'm going to use this to refer to my geology degree from now on, thanks.
  • @GoodieWhiteHat
    Thanks. This is exactly what I wanted. It puts everything into a logical sequence. It’s clearly a big effort to make.
  • @hurfhimself1426
    unironically one of the best paleo documentaries I've ever watched. great job on this, looking forward to your videos on the Mesozoic and Cenozoic.
  • @irenafarm
    Once this is complete, this could legitimately be used to supplement public school science!
  • @WarriorVirtue
    Anything to put off the Triassic video, huh? I kid. I kid. This will be a fun watch.
