How environmental events effect civilizations existence is the so important.thank you for this.

[@Bethgael]

It's a sad fact that apparently this gentleman didn't think to talk to Australian First Nations elders or oral historians; they have many stories in regards to not only volcanic activity in Australia but also in regards to explosive behaviour north of the current Australian mainland. In particular, the changes in sea levels in the top end.

[@jacquiedwards160]

I am Australian, and know how old their culture is.... and to my shame, it did not occur to me to even wonder if they had any Stories about this. Now I want to know if I can find out...

[@Bethgael]

@@jacquiedwards160 I wondered the same, and there's a LOT out there. KZbin will eat any links I try here but if you google "Australian aboriginal stories volcanoes and earthquakes" you'll find them. :)

[@scratch5120]

Y’all need to lighten up.

[@joshportie]

Nope no sea level change at all. And this is historical revision. This was however the beginning of the worst time.

A video that repeats my name is a joy to watch.

[@arturofuente4832]

This video was made in 536 AD.

Thank you for uploading.

[@juliajs1752]

Wait, so this documentry claims that the events of 536 were only discovered and decyphered 10 years ago? I have intense doubts about that. It might be useful to include the year of the recording of those interviews.

[@johnlittle8975]

From the look of the computers used, seems to be filmed somewhere in the 90s.

[@sarahleediscordia2840]

This is an older documentary. Definitely from the 90s

[@skyedog24]

No this is not a documentary from the 90'sthis the only thing I do are docs. . However it is not impossible to use an older ibm or McIntosh computer..

[@StephanieMoondance]

It's from 1999. You can see it at the end of the vid credits (MCMXCIX)

[@LM-lv6fv]

Krakatoa!! I knew it!! Lol the name itself is self explanatory👍🏼 🌋 I always wondered why this volcano’s name has carried on through time…. It must be right above a very active hot spot.

[@misstayyler]

Mono County. Horseshoe Lake is the place in California. It's so pretty there.

[@delphiniapickett2934]

And if you see what's going on in Iceland with more than one volcano lava coming out. This rings a bell my memory of watching what happened in 535 AD. and 536 AD . This can happen again and that's why parts of the earth will turn dark is because of volcanoes.

[@scotty430]

This is one of the reasons the Norse decided to start raiding.

[@bloodychesh366]

Interesting....they didn't start raiding for over 200 more years. Can you elaborate?

[@marcusfridh8489]

It was the natural disaster that inspired the fimbulwinter and ragnarök of norse mythology.

THANK YOU FOR NOT DOING A VIDEO ON NAPOLEON! No. Srsly. It's gotten so bad that a *cooking channel* I follow has done a video on Napoleon's table manners. So thank you for not.

Well...look at it this way....Cavemen survived the ice age....but 4 days of snow was a catastrophe for Texas. Maybe ancient man was superior after all.

[@john.d5540]

Or maybe Texas just sucks

[@get.sassyxd]

Oh they were in many ways. Now most humans/civilizations wouldn't survive long if the power grids went down for a few weeks lol

[@marcusfridh8489]

Survival and preparedness is a required skill, and that it nothing modern people gets taught nowdays. In the past those knowledges and skills made us adaptable but without those humanity is screwed and will eventually get exstinct

[@KaraZiasapiens]

We've almost gone extinct several times since we emerged, and even our ancestors almost went extinct 900k years ago. Heck, half of Europe died just a few hundred years ago. The snow in Texas barely killed anyone compared to that.

[@user-ud1pz3kf6h]

@@KaraZiasapiens according to American news media 4 days of snow was a disaster. Makes sense because modern society would crumble without electricity. What doesn't run on electric power these days??

When the meteorite was mentioned as one of the possibilities I couldn't help it but share this which I have known:- This is few decades after this event were prophet Muhammed, would be born; and In Qur'an this is what certain Jinn (non physical beings who has the ability to go into outside of our planet into the universe have said: When they seen him in their expedition (After they would observe major changes in the space. "And we have sought [to reach] the Lowest heaven (Space) but found it filled with powerful guards and burning flames" "(72:9) and that 'we would take up stations in the heaven to try to hear but anyone who now attempts to listen finds a shooting meteor in wait for him';" And we do not know [therefore] whether evil is intended for those on earth or whether their Lord intends for them a right course."

I actually reported this comment. I've been watching documentaries since the beginning and I can't imagine what must be going through your head. However as of today the Epstein files have been released Epstein Island the flight logs don't lie. Trump is the only one that wasn't named. It's straight up vindication.

[@hudsonfrank1121]

So, if trump is voting to turn into a dictator ship and has clearly vocally voiced this? Why are you people supporting him? Why do you people believe his lies, slanders, accusations... Are you people so done with the system you want to go back to this sort of rule? My family left eruope in the late 1700's because of three reason: freedom of religion, the great famine and dictatorships.
