This week I finally make it to the dawn of complex life and many or the animal groups that we know today. It's still quite a strange world, but this is a critical point in our plenets history, the Cambrian Explosion. during this event, there was a massive increase in the biodiversity of the Earth withing just a few million years. This would set the stage for everything that has yet to come.

🎵It’s the Cambrian explosion🎵
I cannot believe it has taken 5 weeks for someone to comment this! 😂
Wow, that's animals and stuff!™
@@zackakai5173 hay there’s land can we go on it
@@Captain_Timezone NO!
@@Flufux why
Paleoart really understates how small most of the cambrian fauna really was. Seeing reconstructions of Hallucigenia or Opabinia I always got the impression they were the size of a trout or something, but nope, they grew barely to the size of a pinky finger. Sure, there were also some decently sized critters like Anomalocaris but even they are small compared to the creatures yet to come.
I do really like the Paleozoic because it's far less popular than the Mesozoic but features an equally interesting and far more strange flora and fauna.
I mean, Devonian, Carboniferous and Permian tend to hog all the attention, if one ever delve into the Paleozoic ( And with a good reason, mind you)
The Edacarian is my favourite period
@@willamhalelukehale781 Yes everyone was nice to each other in those days.
Watching TimTim evolve before our eyes in a matter of weeks *sheds tear* They grow so fast! I'm really loving your videos
They sure do! I'm enjoying the series a lot.
Just you wait until he becomes a teenager LOL
Love Tim Tim and love u and ur content!!
Glory to the goo!
I just love tim tim
Dude, let me tell you, I have ADHD and your videos capture my attention better than any educational video I’ve ever seen. You should be a teacher, you have a real talent for this.
Same for me! Being autistic I also love watching this love❤ly playlist again, again, again.
Let me tell you I dont have ADHD and cringey humour is not the dry factual paleontology that I enjoy so damn much
Some paleontologists think Anomalocaris could not eat trilobites b/c a computer simulation suggested the radial teeth around the outside of the mouth would break trying to bite through trilobite armor. But radiodonts had 2 sets of teeth - the outer teeth that looked like a camera aperture & "throat teeth" on the inside of their mouth -- I wonder if maybe the outer radial teeth might have been used to hold the prey up against the mouth (after the "shrimp arms" handed the prey back to the mouth) & then the "throat teeth" inside the mouth could do the work of biting chunks off the prey. I know that is speculative, but Anomalocaris was so far back in time a lot of things are
Also, unknown if Anomalocaris could just keep producing new teeth like a shark. Just so much we don't know b/c there is no close living relative.
i could eat a trilobite
@@st.zahren5683 Well, yeah, but you have tool use. You could just smack it open against something hard to break the shell. :P
This aged well
@sakei-kun3090 How so?
The Cambrian has quickly become one of my favorite eras. I think it’s partly to do with game Birthday’s The Beginning, which introduced me to a lot of these very early forms of life. Just watching them sprout up in that game and dominate my seascapes always fills me with such wonder and excitement
You earned a subscriber for how much effort you put into this series. I look forward to seeing this continued.
Dinosaurs are fun, but I find the animals in earlier eras a lot more interesting. Thanks for doing these videos.
It's thanks to the Walking with Monsters documentary that I first became interested in the time periods before the Mesozoic.
I’m 44yrs old, live in regional Western Australia & I’m loving this series already, in one big fat binge watching session! But I’ve enjoyed your other videos too = how I stumbled across these, digging through your playlists for more! I don’t know if you care, but I enjoy collecting rocks & fossils from my own backyard. They say there is no evidence of dinosaurs in Western Australia & that’s such a big fat lie. U can see their skeletal remains exposed in the sides of hills, people out bones on their lawns as displays & there’s 3 places that I have personally been to where you know something major happened. There’s a place known as greenough blowholes where u can still see this massive pile up of bodies, beasts of the oceans trying to escape from the water onto land & beasts on the land trying to escape that same threat by trying to jump into the seas. The only thing I can think of that would trigger such a response from land AND sea animals is heat. Some intense deathly heat from which there WAS no escape. I’ve seen the same thing in 2 places inland, all 3 places separated by a good 500-700kms, but the response was clearly the same, giant hills formed by animals climbing away from some catastrophic event, clambering on top of one another to escape the inescapable. These remains are so detailed that you can literally make out the individual scales on reptiles & plates on crocodilians. They’re also super fragile, almost like compacted dust, or giant creepy sandcastles because of how white they are. I’ve found jaw bones one feet long, I have giant claws still attached to the bone of whatever creature it belonged too. There’s plains & plains of fossilised remains, mainly skulls & vertebrae where they had been rolled around & eventually dumped by some massive body of water, the trickling remains we now call the Murchison river, but it’s easy to see that millions of years ago this river was a decent 50-60km wide. It also carved out beautiful cliff faced gorges as it rushed out to sea at a place called Kalbarri. Absolutely stunning btw if you ever want to travel. Apparently Western Australia is the oldest known land mass on the planet & FYI stromatolites are found all along the coast, they’re definitely not confined to JUST shark bay as we are told. It’s an amazing place, & I’m so proud to call it home coz it’s almost as interesting as these fantastic videos I’m so grateful to have found. Now to let the binge continue!! 👏👏❤️😂
This, itself, was agreat educational comment
Thanks
brilliant comment 👏
hi from Bristol UK 🇬🇧😀
Thanks for making these videos. I love learning about different prehistoric animals. Learning about ones that aren't dinosaurs has be super cool.
8:18 funny worm that keeps moving forward
Until it’s enemies are destroyed

So fascinating to see what some of the first creatures on Earth may have looked like. You've really opened my eyes to how becoming highly specialized can make a species VERY weird. It also gives me perspective as to how some of the weirdness we see today came to be!
Well… giraffes exist. That would be a stupidly bizarre animal if not for the fact we’re just used to it.
@@TrinityCore60 same deal with us humans man, have you ever just stopped and looked at your hands, or faces or something
shits weird as hell
@@knockrotter9372 no weird than other apes; in my opinion, the weirdest things about humans is our sweat and hairlessness.
The thing I’m most pleased about with channels like this is the level of information that is so readily available. I learned to read in the 50s, and I can tell you that what was available then was limited, confined, and in many cases plain wrong. Those were the days when mountains were formed due to the earth’s crust shrinking when it cooled. There was no such thing as plate tectonics, though even in Darwin’s Origin of Species he gave hints that such speculations existed even then. Maybe you could find serious scientific discussion about things like this, but only if you were an academic.
Paleo Analysis is a true gem from any perspective. It’s gold from an information standpoint. More, it provides its listeners information that just might make some do independent studies, an endeavor sorely lacking in our ridiculously politicized world. Thank you so much for your hard work in informing and educating.
These videos are the best, used to have a bunch of books about these eras as a kid.
The world was just so alien then.
Still is in a way I guess..
7:03 For real, a Cambrian period video game would be great. Although perhaps it would've been ideal for the days of GameBoy. Still I think it could be fun now.
Honestly, there’s something rather humbling about learning of the origins of life and where it began.
Another great episode! Well done, man!
Great video. You have enjoyable narration to listen to.
Excellent program! I find creatures like Anomalocaris and Hallucinogenia fascinating, like characters from Monsters Inc. Speaking of monsters, what era does the Tully Monster come from? Does anyone have definitive proof of whether it’s a chordate or not? It looks to me like some sort of Opabinia, maybe. When your series gets to the relevant era, I hope you’ll cover this bizarre creature. The Cambrian was like a Lovecraftian menagerie. Thanks!
Another great episode, thanks :)
So informative AND interesting. Should be used in school.....thanks for all the time and effort you put into this.
You’re doing a great job. Have my grandkids, 10 and 5 1/2, watching too. They love you’re videos! Thanks.
LOVE your channel. This is all so fascinating. For me, the only improvement would be longer videos. I just love how you present everything!
Subscribed. I watched a few eps before doing so but realized when I went to your channel for entertainment randomly a lightbulb clicked. I really enjoy the content, this doesn't even feel like learning to me.
You have "the Gift."
Thanks for sharing, I think in many ways this reminds us how little we truly know about the divergence of major groups despite a fairly fortunate fossil record, but perhaps also the hope that we might yet find some groundbreaking discoveries that confirm or shred our current best assumptions
This is such a great video series! I wish each episode was longer actually. These complex explanations are made simple and understandable. I especially like comparing the scale of everything. It emphasizes how small everything was in the Cambrian. If we went back to dive in those seas, we'd see an array of mostly tiny creatures swimming along the bottom of shallow seas.
Ah yes, Hallucigenia.
The worm that is incapable of turning backwards. It just keeps moving forwards... Until it's enemies are destroyed.

I am really enjoying this series. Thank you
This journey so far has been entertaining , enjoyable and educational. Thank you for putting so much time and effort into making this fascinating information so accessible. I just found your channel recently but have started working my way through your videos. I'm so excited to see what you do next. ^_^
i activily looked for a channel doing this.. please..make the next one.. i have watched the next one but i mean like the next in this series
I'm going to be upfront with you and say that the next History of the Earth video is going to be delayed until maybe 3 weeks from now at the earliest. I will still be uploading content but those videos in particular do require extra work and I have a lot going on at home. I will be updating everyone at the end of Friday's video.
I'm really glad that you found my channel and enjoy my content. 🙂
I love this so much. Just got recommended a vid of yours and im binge watching now, thanks!
I think one of the hardest things to wrap your head around when you watch really old history videos. Is when you see something and your like oh a fish, but no that thing is so old it's a completely different creature that just looks like a fish because millions maybe billions of years later something down it's evolution becomes fish or it just dies off
"You're like "Oh a fish"" is a fantastic sentence.
I feel that this is one of your best videos.
Im so glad i stumbled across this channel. Incredibly fascinating stuff to learn about. Cant wait to watch more vids! Keep up the amazing work ✨💕
The Cambrian Explosion 💥 I admit I’m biased to love this time because of trilobites! I love those guys ❤
Really like the videos. I just found your channel, and am getting caught up. I like these “bird’s eye view” videos as a way to see the entire landscape of the earth’s history. It allows me to get oriented for the other, more detailed videos, to understand where their content lands in relation to other stuff. Great work, keep it up!
My friend, your videos are both informative and entertaining. Thank you for putting your time in to them.
This is amazing channel ! Thank you
I've been a sub for some time. I love your content. I have MS and there are times it's difficult for me to follow along with other channels. It's easy to follow along and understand everything.
If you know anything about MS it causes brain fog or "cog fog". These are issues with your memory, attention span, understanding or concentration. Some days are harder than others. Thank you for all of this!!
I like your content. It's exactly entertaining enough to keep me interested, without overdoing it and becoming silly. Granted, my background is nowhere near the subject, it's still accessable for me.
What I like best about these videos is that they give a brief, simple but informative overview of life. Someone not formally trained in paleontology can acquire a solid foundation of knowledge with which, if they're paying attention, can delve into more complicated videos about how life came to be and what steps were taken to get there. Solid roots from which knowledge can grow.....
Informative and most enjoyable. I do hope your channel grows...good luck.
I'm loving your videos and have binge-watched a number of them. I think many are really interested in this and previous periods is because they are rarely covered or talked about. The more "sexy" periods often take center stage leaving these other, and very important, stages waiting in the wings! That being said I really enjoy your information-packed as well as light-hearted look at the history of our planet! Thank you for all your hard work.
fantastic stuff, man. take it from a fellow science communicator - you're the real deal. so happy I found your channel
Paleo youtube channels focus most on dinosaurs, but the other stuff is amazing too
Rapid expansion to fill in an ecological niche of viewers to be educated 😊. Thank you very much for these insightful and accessible videos.
I love this series so much.
I love your videos, please keep making them!!!
I am so glad I stumbled into this channel. It is so educational. Keep it up, sir.
The Paleozoic is my favorite Era, - if you somehow couldn't tell - so it's nice to see some more people giving it the attention it deserves because it lasted longer than both the Mesozoic Era and the Cenozoic Era combined. I think what I like even more about it is that most of the life we see from the Paleozoic looks like it's from an alien planet. Keep it up!
Please keep going with these! Your videos are going places for sure!
Thanks again for the awesome series
Great video. Keep up the good work!
First time on your channel.. interesting topic, amazing editing and video! Good job👍🏽
This so interesting! Great video!
Why do I feel such a maternal instinct to give TimTim a hug? What's wrong with my life?
Thank you for making these awesome educational videos and thank you for Timtim.
Excellent job!!
That was cool!
Just found your channel in my feed and I'm binging this whole series, bless the algorithm
I'm loving this!!!
This series changed my world view drastically in 1 day. Bravo!
Great job as usual
Thanks a bunch, really enjoy your work🤗
Over and above that though, I've always enjoyed the business of learning. The subject has never really mattered, I simply have to keep learning. That sounds boastful, but really isn't because I've no choice. Point being that, through your chanel and others, and by reading people's comments, I've come to learn that, far from being that 'weird' nerdy kid(now man), with his nose constantly stuck in a book. I'm actually part of a massive worldwide community of people who simply love knowledge for its own sake. Guess what I'm trying to say is, thanks and keep going.
Love the lifeform that keeps evolving and all the lifeforms that he has to deal with. You GO, Haikouicthys!
Omg yes, time for actual animals!
Hey, Paleozoic (yugioh archetype) enthusiast here. Not only does Anomalocaris have a pokemon modeled after it, it also has an Xyz boss monster modeled after it
(So does Pikaia, Marella, Hallucigenia, and a couple of others)
The more charismatic animals are fun to learn about but I love learning about the weirdos that aren't talked about as often. I honestly just love learning new things and your videos are so informative as well as fun.
Love your videos man and also love the Pokemon references please keep up the hard work bro.
Love it, thanks
I like all these discussions on earth history. I am especially following the early history. The period before the dinosaurs is very fascinating. To realize there were animals living 500 million years ago and some were our ancestors! Amazing.
Love this channel
Run Timtim run lol, love it
Great videos bro
Awesome channel. You deserve way more subscribers.
this video was really informative and i learnt a lot about the cambrian period
5:20 I like the funny arthropod with the eye under its head. Side note: I'm a little disappointed that Hallucigenia were only about an inch long
I love your sense of humor!
I just found this channel today.
I wish there was a Playlist to watch these episodes in the order they take place.
6:36 Evolution happens again! On to the 4th form.
There is. ua-cam.com/play/PL6L8fqJFoWXfeab0ndEWpOnZg-1tuLVD8.html
I found it!
Good luck evolving back to your Human form.
I think you do a great job. You entertain as you teach
That's a great trick for helping the memory retain the lesson. 👍👍👍👍👍
it's the cambrian explosion!
fine job thank you
Media about ancient ocean creatures is my happy place my dude, so yea…. I’m here for it, even tho i already knew pretty much everything that was discussed here and it’ll probably be the same way for the next…it doesn’t freaking matter and I’m stoked for the next video regardless!😅😉🤘
Amazing video! Would love a special detailed episode on terrestrialisation 💯
A other great vid, with touches of humour! good job.
The evolution scenes make me seriously want a Pokémon rom hack with just prehistoric creatures that actually follow evolutionary lines
I wish I could heart this twice
@@PaleoAnalysis thanks man, i just stumbled upon your channel like 3 days ago, i love prehistoric fauna especially the aquatic ones
Great videos
The Cambrian: When Earth turned from a PvE into a PvP server.
Oh, hi Tim-Tim. I was wondering what you'd turned into this time. :)
I just found your channel, subbed! 👌🏻
I think that one item that is overlooked is the advent of bilateral symmetry at the beginning of the Cambrian,
Yessssss, do list videos 😬
Great video
This is a really fun science/history lesson for my kids and me!
So very interesting enjoyed amazing how the earth evolved in a short time time really does fly
Your video's are reminding me of my love for paleontology. Life sciences are something of a passion of mine, especially ones involving animals. I think when I go back to college, I'm going to look into getting a minor in paleontology.
thank you sir
I remember seeing Hallucigenia for the first time. I remember being so freaked out because it looked like a worm on legs but it could not possibly be a worm?? And the caption says that scientists don't know much about what it really looked like, what it may have been and if it was actually a spine of a larger animal. Only years later did I find out that the pic was upside-down and it was its own animal. Still freaky-looking though.
I honestly found this video fun in addition to educational.
Congrats on the channel! We enjoy it because nerdy people like me exist in the world….
you know i really liked your videos, your narrative is enchanting, however i was waiting for the dinosaur section, you know Jurassic, and stuff, and wow i was surprised not to found it, i mean i dont have anything against specialization but due to your style i believe it would be amazing to see them, thats all a kind regards from Ecuador !!
It should be noted that, on the scales being discussed, "evolved simultaneously in several different groups" can be a bit misleading. On a geological scale, the development of the opposable thumb and the Nintendo Power Glove were effectively simultaneous.
