Dan LinPřed 3 měsíci

It really makes me sad that we will never get to witness such an amazing species of animal. These dinosaurs lived for hundreds of millions of years, and it took one day to change all of that. The fact that we came back from that truly is incredible. I kind of shed a tear for the dinosaurs on this video.

• 

  Genghis KhanPřed 3 měsíci

  Technically you can still witness them in the form of the mighty chicken

  Dan LinPřed 3 měsíci

  @Genghis Khan haha true. Where I’m from, we actually have peacocks just roaming our streets and they do give off dinosaur vibes lol

• 

  VelociraptorPřed 3 měsíci

  @Dan Lin because birds are true theropod dinosaurs (theropods are bipedal three toed dinosaurs like T.rex or Velociraptor) actually any bird is more closely related to a T.rex than a T.rex is to a Triceratops or Brachiosaurus

• 

  Dan LinPřed 3 měsíci

  @Velociraptor yup. It’s funny how we still call all of them dinosaurs when the triceratops is like a prehistoric rhino and a raptor is a prehistoric chicken. Totally unrelated.

• 

  VelociraptorPřed 3 měsíci

  ​@Dan Lin Well, they are all dinosaurs, i mean a whale looks like a giant fish, a bat looks like a strange pterosaur and a platypus looks like a... whatever... yet they all are still mammals same with dinoaurs, even tho they are very different , they are all dinosaurs

worldsbossPřed rokem

I know this event is pretty much the entire reason that humanity exists in its current form today, but it’s still so incredibly sad to think of everything that was lost due to such a seemingly trivial event in the context of the universe 😔

• 

  Larry DanielsPřed rokem

  The event is neither sad nor any other human emotion. This is nature, it is not cruel, one must accept that we are not in control of the universe. A supernova or when galaxies collide-- can a human even conceive of the power of nature?

That debris that re-entered the atmosphere and heated up the planet wasn’t rock. It was GLASS. The molten rock cooled in space before it fell back down, creating what we call tektites. So it was literally raining glass on the dinosaurs.

Hrag SousaniPřed rokem

Thank you for making such videos, that can improve my knowledge on scientific topics. I've heard before about the mass extinction, but I didn't know this much about it. I just knew that a huge asteroid hit the earth and all the dinosaurs were affected from it, but after watching this video, it clearly explained how it happened. It's crazy to think how we live on a planet, which got recovered from those situations.

Burnt ToastPřed 18 dny

The fact that there were still some forms of life that survived after that catastrophe is mind-blowing

Tiffany MariePřed rokem

It's amazing that the ancestors of all current life on earth survived this nightmare. It's a testimony to the resilience of life itself and how it....finds a way.

  dpt9sharathPřed 2 lety

  I know right. The entire time I kept thinking of that. How crazy horrible it would be for them.

• 

  Tommy 50377Před 2 lety

  @Aaron Washington If space threw a rock at earth we would be fine. If it could visibly be seen in the sky two weeks out, we'd definitely detect it at least a month before it hit us. Then we'd do what humanity always does. Panic. And then nuke it into oblivion. There are very few natural disasters that could destroy humanity at this point. We are a much greater threat to ourselves then nature is.

• 

  Wouter d.B.Před 2 lety

  @Tommy 50377 You are greatly overestimating our abilities. All of the nukes on the planet could not have vaporized a meteorite of that size. What it would do is ablate some meters of material from the surface, but that's it. If given enough warning, as in YEARS you might deflect the thing with nukes. Drilling and then nuking would make it worse, imagine not one but now TWO meteorites peppering the planet from 2 angles, further reducing the change of surviving species.

JJ JJJPřed rokem

I love that they incorporated the concept of colorful dinosaurs they showed us a while ago.

‘Things were good for our feathered dinosaur buddies.’ The sheer friendliness of that phase made me wish the video would stop and I wouldn’t have to see our feathered buddies die.

  Rule of thumb: If on land, it dead automatically. If underwater or underground, prolly dead, if not immediately then by starvation. The survivors were all that. Those who happened to be in a cave, underground, or underwater and was small enough to survive on little food had SOME chance. Including small rat-like mammals and small dinosaurs, which give us all mammals including primates, and ofc birbs.

I think this science needs to be developed and remembered. So grateful that I live on the perfect Planet. I'm still amazed by the world in the Mesozoic era, what a terrible conflict. Dinosaur life was truly long. It was amazing to know the ancient times on this Earth. I also love this animation. The Asteroid would break through dangerously. I can imagine but can't feel exactly what Earth's climate was like at that time. I grieve with the Dinosaurs who lived hard but they were still able to breathe in irregular degrees. This is what I'm most interested in. I wish I could save the Earth.

What an awesome animation I have watched. It’s a really great job to show the historical events of our planet in an interesting way. We have to emphasize and make a summary to prevent our civilization from dying.

  And this wasn't the worst extinction event. The Great Dying was, and with a name like that, it better be lol 90% of ocean life and 70% of life on land died. The causes aren't super clear since it has no big creator to look at lol. But it's likely a mix of warming temperatures, oceanic anoxia (oxygen depletion), and oceanic acidification.

  An event like this could happen again, the difference is we would know it was coming months, if not years, before it happened, and we could potentially prepare for it.

This makes me feel quite sad... the end of a cycle was so brutal... imagine if there was a dynosaur civilization, just a small one of inteligent species gathered in groups, that had very little impact on the environment, they lived in harmony and as one part of the ecosystem, they raised reptile mounts like we do with horses, they had livestocks, cattle, pets,... all were reptiles and dynosaurs. And everything just ended, on that fateful day, just like that.

Jeremy FrankPřed 6 měsíci

I think the most interesting implication is that as we look for Earth-like planets in the universe, our own history would say that the likeliest outcome is that those planets are full of dinosaurs, not human-like intelligent species. Of course that may change depending on how likely you also consider asteroids like this to be.

• 

  Jeremy FrankPřed 6 měsíci

  @Jammie! right, my comment is that Earth’s natural progression was clearly towards large non-intelligent life forms, and only have us due to an asteroid strike. Thus, other earth-like planets would be more likely to have dinosaur-like organisms (depending on how likely a similarly timed, similarly sized asteroid is on any given planet)

This is my fave video ever. It perfectly captures the beauty and horror of life.

Fun fact: Popular dinosaurs like Stegasauras and Brontosauras did NOT exist together with T-Rex and Triceratops. The first two went extinct in the previous mass extinction event. So when you see a Stegasauras fight a Trex in popular culture it could never have happened.

I've seen/read the same dinosaur story for more than a thousand times now. But Kurzgesagt's story telling is on another level! Kudos

Here I am at 12:20am on a Friday watching all I can about dinosaurs. What a time to be alive

Imagine having to live in that era, we would most likely think that it's the end- no life is gonna be continue to live on with that harsh conditions. But, once again nature has proved us wrong, a new life will always emerge once an old one dies out.

Still amazing that some animals and plants survived this apocalypse level destruction. I feel like only bacteria would have been able to survive this.

I love your space pins. I have them on my most recent art supply bags everywhere I go and show them off. The black hole, sad brown dwarf, the alien squid, and the death star ball split by colorful spaghetti lol. Amazing designing.

The animation and color palette used are impeccable. Perfect.

That asteroid had the best stone to bird killing ratio. This takes kill two birds with one stone to a whole new level

  And the fact that we're talking about birds, just not avian.

  Well, the astroid helped prompt the evolution of birds from dinosaur so really that stone did the reverse of killing two birds

'Some of the debris yeeted into space.' This line always gets me.

The fact that this hasn't happened again is amazing to me. Thank God

MJ46Před 9 měsíci

the fact that yet after all this happend and thousands of yaers later, life not only managed to find away to spread again, but to create us too, is one of the most consoling ideas that come to my mind every time i hit a low from how dark we are turning our lives and this planet

Imagine years in the future when humans go extinct and there’s a new species that goes and finds out remains cycle of life

Conrad BesterPřed rokem

The asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs was more than likely the highest ratio of birds ever killed by one stone

This is the fourth or fifth time I watch this video. Our lives are made of fragile continuity. One second ahead and it's all changed forever, so, love the ones who love you and care over them too.

Some dinosaurs did survive, so it wasn't goodbye forever. The dinosaurs that survived were the smaller, feathered two-legged carnivores - they later evolved into what we now know as the modern bird. Chickens, eagles, cranes, crows and all other birds out there, are the direct descendants of the surviving dinosaurs.
