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!

Look up Hugh Ross. I am still a practicing Christian and I find nothing whatsoever that suggests faith and a science are mutually exclusive. Yes the Universe started 14 billion years ago through the big bang, yes the earth formed 4.5 billion years ago through accretion, yes life started as a single proto-cell and evolved into what we see today. God is simply the intelligence behind it all and those were simply His tools. I know many people can not accept this - for whatever reason they need that conflict. All I can do is keep an open mind and be willing to meet people half way. Some can not imagine a life where they don't look down their noses at the faithful. Many of the faithful can not imagine a world where they do not look down their noses at the atheist. Sounds like their problem to me.

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

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.

But now I see them now as a wonderful story of how geology and biology interact from the beginning to shape our world. And we’re the first species to become aware of how we’re interacting with that cycle. And I’m feeling more empowered to make a difference in the planet’s future, to try to correct our mistakes and direct our activities in a more constructive direction!

you should think of mass extinctions as reshuffling the deck basically. if those hadn't happened, mammals, nevermind humans might not have ever come into existence. i will say that people that say we're overdue for another mass extinction are morons though. the universe doesn't operate on a time table.

[@irenafarm]

I’ve watched this about a dozen times now. I desperately want the next chapter, because I really love the Triassic!! We had two different farms in NC that coincidentally were within walking distance of two important sites for pre- and post-CAMP rift fossils! It’s an odd coincidence but probably explainable in that both places were specifically sheep farms- we tend to put sheep on land that’s inappropriate for crops and other livestock. Looking into this informally, sheep farming up the mid-atlantic, follows the ancient rift valley that’s interspersed with CAMP intrusions. The soil is thin and rocky and erodes SUPER fast, but grows pasture grass quite well. So the farms there favored sheep, horses, and tobacco. It’s absolutely hilarious to think now that when we were attempting to fence fields and cursing the ubiquitous rocks, that we were throwing around chunks of rock that contributed to one of the major mass extinctions. I actually saved some of these rocks from our last place, and use them to decorate my garden here where the native rocks look TOTALLY different. It’s absolutely WILD that our historic land use follows geology that was often laid down during, or shortly after the events in this video.

hey Steve, have you heard about this new study where scientists have managed to evolve yeast to being multicellular? In short, they've been trying to unlock the secrets of why multicellular life evolved and while they could get them to combine somewhat they couldn't get any real breakthrough until someone had the idea to reduce available oxygen, and when they did the cells began to join together with strong bonds and some even change to do specific function inside to structure itself. it's pretty interesting (if badly described by myself) so if I have my timeline correct then it's one more thing to thank the anoxic seas of the boring billion for; making multicellular life necessary enough for survival to get us to where we are today.

People like you are what keeps me going. I will be honest, 2024 has not been good to me. But it seems like every time I have a moment where I am feeling down one of you come in clutch to lift my spirits without even knowing it. Today that person is you, so thank you! ❤️ I hope you enjoy the content and just know more is coming soon.

[@LightBlueVans]

that means so much to me! i’m actually back on this video for the third time since the first viewing. please keep going!!! 🙏🏻💜

[@LightBlueVans]

also gained a lifelong sub with this

[@PaleoAnalysis]

@@LightBlueVans Thank you so much for all the support. I am trying to get back to it, I really am... I need to try to find a topic that I can get really excited about because those are the videos that come the most easy to me. ❤️

[@merinajoy4107]

This is my comfort video. It has helped me sleep so many times.

[@nottiification]

This is such a fantastic series. One of the true gems of youtube. Its so informative and there's so much there that i've watched through it several times and I still pick up something new every time. ==chefs kiss==

[@melnsc6934]

New this this channel and am enjoying this so much! Great job with the writing, delivery and visuals. And the animation is genuinely cute and funny without being overbearing. 1/4 of the way through and I have already learned so much. Thank you.

[@ricksteruk]

I love this series! Great to have it all one place. Thanks :)

[@mbvoelker8448]

I'm so happy to have this! Can't wait to see the series continue. :)

[@freelycloud]

I love this video. I watch it every night to help me sleep. So much nicer than all the Pop media. Thank you!

[@PaleoAnalysis]

Thank you so much! I can't tell you how much it means to me to hear how much people love my work. I'm not going to lie, I am going through a very difficult time right now and that is the reason why my content has slowed down. All the comments of appreciation really do help me feel better about myself when I really need it. Much love ❤️

[@freelycloud]

It is okay to not be okay. We are all evolving c:@@PaleoAnalysis

[@Piperdogloveshats]

I’m so glad you combined this series into 1 video. I’ve actually watched these a bunch of times. They’re just so well done! Thank you for all the work you put into it!!! If I wonder if a lot of teachers use these videos in science class when teaching this in middle school or high school. You make it really easy to understand and fun to learn.

[@walfreysimporios]

I honestly love this compilation. Its fun and very informative. The animation is actually what makes it very interesting. Keep it up!!

[@nathon1942]

Finally. I’ve been looking for a video exactly like this but none I found were long enough to cover things properly.

[@KittyDice]

This video has become my sleep aid. I come back here when I have trouble getting relaxed enough to sleep 😅

[@ems4884]

I'm a historian. When i teach my 101 course which starts with the ancient world, the first thing i always show is a time line from the big bang to now, zoom in on the beginning of Hadeam Earth, then zoom in on the Paleolithic, then finally on the historical period. The effect on students is quite something to see. All of recorded history and human civilizations is an intense burst of the creative mind of just one species in a minuscule fraction of time. I find that it helps focus their minds on how lucky they are to exist as human beings in these past several millennia.

[@squirrel_slapper]

It's *MY* sleepover and *I* get to choose the movie!

[@kelseylogas1580]

Love this series, I've watched it all many times. Its really nice to have it all in one place!! A suggestion for you that I hope you will find interesting: how about a video on the evolution of jaws? I have no idea how all of the radiodonts were such big predators without them, and so forth. It might be fun!! Thanks again for an excellent video, looking forward to more weirdos of the Triassic!!

[@Mezza_Luca]

It's always amazing to see someone take so many important small ideas and boil them down to general themes that give a solid broader picture. It takes a lot of effort and knowledge to do well. Kudo's to you my good sir.

[@scottbruner9266]

I will play the “evolving” sequences over a few times. I just LIVE for that 8-bit PC speaker sound…

[@Cheycartoongirl8]

A 2 HOUR VIDEO????? *hops in bed and gets comfy* Time to binge this until I fall asleep!

[@melinphx1]

This was fantastic seeing all the parts one after the other. Thank you!

[@MemesSpaghetti]

I've watched this video like 4 times in the last 6 months and i keep coming back to it for some reason. I really like this video a lot

[@hatsudopia5085]

Been re-watching these for a minute now so this makes it much easier to do that. Thank you

[@nancykimmel6008]

I wish you'd do more videos on the less known life forms and events from the Carboniferous, Devonian and Ordovician periods. It so hard to find decent information on those periods.

[@emilypeck6929]

That's primarily because of the lack of fossil records of those eras. It's a shame, really

[@channel_._.]

@@emilypeck6929 I know that but there are a lot of videos about the cambrian compared to those periods.

[@anthropomorphicmonster9113]

This is the first time that I taught myself how to use the KZbin notification bell. Keep doing epic stuff. The world needs more people like you!

[@barbarapreston488]

I watched each of these when they came out, but I'm enjoying them even more all put together. Thank you!!

[@KnickKnacksPlasticPlanet]

This is the single BEST video on all of KZbin. I probably have watched it all the way through at least ten times. This is my go-to when I have an anxiety attack or get riddled with insomnia. Thank you for taking me on this journey through the history of our planet in such an insightful and entertaining style. I love both you and Tim-Tim. Thank you.

[@DornAndGrant]

This wonderful. Nearly as good as Aron Raa’s cladistic series (For clarity this is similar to me saying Neil Gaiman is nearly as good as Terry Pratchett. Which changes weekly)

[@juliew393]

This is a fantastic video! Very well done and I like the humor❤

[@bub6871]

I came into this knowing nothing about the past eons of earth and i was not dissapoibted. At a certain point i thiught this might actually be one of my favorite videos ever made in KZbin i loved it and have watched it multiple times.

[@aruvielevenstar3944]

Thank you so much for this amazing and interesting video! I love this ! And you made it so easy and yet so very complete to understand ❤

[@JamesonNichols]

I laughed a little too hard at the James Wood joke

[@nathanielgrey4091]

Excited for this!

[@danielchefkoch5582]

Awesome completion of all your previous vids!!! Just love it. Evoluted to one of the best earth history vids on tube! Hope you once make a fimal one with the COMPLETE history. Big project a all. Best to you!

[@davidchapman4555]

I'm on my second watch through of this video.

[@andreagriffiths3512]

It took several bites to watch it all but I did…and I enjoyed every minute! Highly entertaining, educational and fun (the evolving bit was super effective and cute). I really want to see right up until now. I enjoyed it so much that I subscribed. I don’t know why your channel took so long to find me but I’m glad it did 💕
