I'm getting old… when I was a kid I learned that this extinction event had happened 65 million years ago, and now it's 66 million 😕
You must be a million years old then 🤣
yea, 66 million. i was there but it wasn't an asteroid, my mother in law fell down. 🤣🤣
We got the same MIL 😂 @@crisespinoza1979
Covid made time pass exponentially, so maybe 🤷♂️ lol
Haha
You could say it killed many birds with one stone.
Too soon brother
But the birds survived
This made me laugh out loud
Get out
Cornball stew
I was there. It was soul-crushing, devastating, but somewhere deep down I felt relieved.
Truly a soul-shattering time for us all 😞
I was underground I was wondering what was all that noise above
A dark and hellish time for sure
😂
Cell service was abysmal xD
I cant believe this content is actually free, it's so high quality
Free with ads
@@jcorley45 ad block is my friend 😎
@@dbz9393 It's a very smart idea to block the only thing that's keeping the videos free, and incentivize content creators to not make high quality content like this.
@@SirKolass I don't mind one advert every now and then but UA-cam goes absolutely bonkers with ads that I had to block them. Either way it's not my problem
@@dbz9393 If youtubers decide to stop making content because it's not generating enough money, you're the one losing that content, either that, or they won't put as much effort into their videos, which means you won't have the high quality content you so praise.
If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't think twice before enabling ad block on this trash platform. They can't make a living out of compliments.
I feel so bad for these dinosaurs, man. I hate seeing them so distressed in these animations. They're like my dog, they can't have a concept of why any of this is happening, they're just scared and dying. It's so sad.
I cried watching the dinosaur cover her body over her eggs during the fire storm ))):
🙄
I literally cried :(
@@babycabbitsame ❤
😂. I feel the exact same way. I’m thinking my God they must have been terrified!!! Poor guys.
Who's still watching 100 million year later?

😂
Si senoir
Indeed you could.
Year 4202 reporting in
It's channels like this which is why I don't watch TV. Brilliant!
What are some similar high quality content channels?
Same. I also really like The Why Files. Give it a visit!
And then there's the 99% of memebot repost channels that make me go back to tv lol
@@J.Wolf90there is not a single thing worth watching on TV
@kipkipper-lg9vl I've been watching a show called resident alien but yeah nothing else really. I stream a lot of reruns
Playtypus are some gangsta animals, they survived sharing an ocean with the hellspawn that inhabited it AND survived the mega extinction
And blackbirds
Also the volcanic hotspot we slid over along the Eastern seaboard.
the impact of that asteroid was so massive that our minds can't even grasp what actually happened. We just cope with "yeah, everything went terribly wrong very quick" while recreating a couple minutes of animation to help us better visualize how it was back then
Kinda like when Captain Cook reached New Zealand for the first time, the natives had never seen anything like their ships and men of that color, weapons, clothing, etc, and it was so foreign to them that they did not even acknowledge them. It was so far out of their existence that they couldn't wrap their minds around what they were seeing.
@@kingjsolomonCaptain James Cook not captain hook 😅
I haven't personally experienced it. But I'm sure we understand how bad it would be.
im not low iq like you bud
If they're widespread enough and advanced enough it might be done by individuals or a small group without the knowledge of the rest of their civilization. Kind of like a poacher going into the wilderness to shoot an elephant
Fascinating how much has been discovered about dinosaurs since I was a kid watching long necks wade in water pools in the land before time. Littlefoots moms death scene still hits me like an asteroid.
Too soon
“Rocks, trees, sticks, spike…”
Me too
The only thing that has changed for the dragonfly in the last 300 million years is their size. They used to be massive, but their structure and proportions are still exactly the same as their fossils.
A system that wires their flight controls directly to their eyes doesn't need change. It's why they have the highest strike-kill ratio in all of earth's history. It's like their muscles can see the food in their airspace and instantly do the math required to eat it.
Impressive that they made it through every catastrophic event over such a vast amount out time.
They're like the people who can see future events or fold space with their minds in Dune.
Yep, most oldest species can find protection in water, dragonflies can't.
And I assume that’s solely because of varying oxygen levels, being they’re insects
I didn’t know they were so old 300 million wow how old is life half a billion years? Or is that complex life still incredible
Had to check not sure where I got half a billion from, complex life earliest evidence 1.5 billion, earliest mammal, only 210 million. This thing was flying around for 90 million years before our earliest ancestors had even taken shape
WRONG! Meganeura and relatives were NOT dragonflies (Odonata) but griffinflies in their own order!
The worst thing about this tragedy is that none of them lived long enough to hear about Al Bundy scoring four touchdowns in a single game while playing for Polk High School in 1966.
Gold statement
Al Bundy!! Coolest guy of the 20th century and beyond...

“ The Dinosaur extinction. Whatever happened there” - Tony Soprano
Quasimodo predicted this
My head canon for this story is that the aliens got bored so they lobbed a big rock at the planet they were watching just to see what would happen, like a person playing Universe Sandbox.
They truly went Scorched Earth !
Too bad they didn't send the rock at 99.999999% the speed of light
the masculine urge
Can't inhabit the planet with the monsters they created still ruling it. Throw the rock at it. Wait... Inhabit the new world as human beings. I am obviously kidding but this idea would suggest that they were bored with the Dinosaurs. 💙✌️🤔😊
You people in this thread used to pull wings off of flies and torture rats with hacksaws when you were little.
This is what the history channel should be
History, by definition, is about humans. So no, but this should be on National Geographic!
@@imgonnastealyourgirl wtf that’s completely false. By that definition the world or universe before humans is not history? You might need to look up the word again.
You need to look into the word again. History devoid of human story is not history. It's just geography. Astrophysics. @@rawimpact
@@ManishSingh-xo1fb no one said it isn’t a humans story. In fact that’s how I define history - knowledge from a humans perspective. We are able to go far before humans and write a story through other scientific means such as those you’ve mentioned.
The history and discovery channels used to be like this guy's channel. It's sad to see how far those channels have fallen.
I strongly suspect these alien scientists would have known exactly that the event was going to occur and wouldn't have dared missed observing it either.
They saw it coming on their instrumentation and got the hell out of there
@@robertk1834 That would be silly. Much better to hang back at a safe distance and then direct every sensor their ship has at Earth to record the impact / aftermath.
For sure you - they - couldn't have slowed down to refuel at 24/7 Jupiter & completely failed to notice a bloody great rock less than one Terra rotation out & heading straight for it! 😕
@@antred11what do they need sensors for? They already know everything, and they've seen it more times than an Andy Griffeth rerun.... It's just entertainment, like a giant aquarium to them... No, no sensors...
Geordi tried to divert it but Q was nowhere to be found.
Theres only a few people who i can sit back and listen too, David Attenborough and you Alex. Most enjoyable thank you.
I think it was both an asteroid AND volcanic activities. I watched a video (Demolition Ranch) where he shot a large solid glass ball with guns. One bullet hit the ball on the front, causing a nice crater. Then they noticed on the other side of the ball, exactly opposite the bullet crater, a small roughly circular area of cracks. The interveving areas of glass were unaffected. It was like a shock wave went around the glass and focused on the opposite side, magnifying their power to cause the cracking. I think the same thing happened to earth when the asteroid hit, causing the traps volcanism.
Huh, that's interesting! I have seen on another video, Atlaspro's video on Mars, about how the large martian volcanos line up with large craters on the opposite side of the planet. Hell Hawaii here on Earth lines up with a massive and ancient crater in Southern Africa.
I wonder what volcanos were triggered by this impact, wonder if there's evidence of it too!
Similar to a head injury: the ‘contra-coup’ mechanism, where the brain opposite the insult is damaged. The antipodal effect is seen on the moon, Mars, and other bodies. Interesting
Spalling
This is shown on Mercury.
I don't remember the names, but there's a big crater and at the antipode a mass of jumbled terrain.
You are describing the theory of antipode eruptions post impact. This is a common theory for a lot of impacts and one that was brought up with this one linking the Deccan traps together as the traps were pretty much on the opposite side at the time. However, there are basalt deposits from the Deccan traps that predate this impact.
But another more prominent theory is that it was a double hit to life. It started with the enormous volume of greenhouse gasses expelling from the Deccan traps and then this impact. The meteor impacted in a shallow sea which had a thick floor of carbonate rock. The impact valorized a crazy amount of this carbonate rock and released massive amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere. Coupled with the months of fire raining down onto the surface and the years of nuclear winter afterwards, the final nails were hammered into the coffin for dinosaurs.
EXCELLENT documentary, as usual from Astrum. Alex offers some of the very finest voiceovers on UA-cam or anywhere else.
Geese are still terrifying dinosaurs. Ask any Canadian.
So are chickens!
😂😅
i was there. im the camera man
Same,i was holding the boom mic 😎
God speed

I was the earth 😂😂😂
@@MrMonsterJamFan😂😂😂🤣🤣
I can't help but watch these videos with child like fascination. I keep catching my face striking these silly expressions that only stuff like this could manifest. Your worlds are a wonderful place to escape to, Alex.
I just love how they can look back 66 million years and know that it rained fire for 15 minutes but apparently they can’t predict the weather for the next week accurately
Week? Try the next 3 days
They think they know. Just their opinions. 😊
Excellent video Astrum as always and Alex I could listen to your dulcet tones allday! you're a fabulous narrator!
My 3 year old daughter is your biggest fan. She does not miss even single episode of yours.
😮
🤣earth isn't billions years
Awesome job as always Alex! While I am sad as a fan of dinosaurs it’s probably for the best because otherwise humanity wouldn’t have emerged as it has
I like the Arlo alternate history.
the problem with the flood basalt hypothesis is that it took several million years for the Siberian traps to cause the end-permian extinction, and it happened in waves. By contrast, the K-Pg extinction happened almost instantaneously, pointing to a cause much more immediately catastrophic. It seems most likely that the Deccan traps were weakening ecosystems, and made the impact even more devastating than it would otherwise have been.
I agree
I'm watching this several months later. A very recent video I came across posed the possibility that some non-avian dinosaurs not only managed to survive the asteroid, but they also continued to live on over a hundred thousand years later. Paleontologists theorize that they lvied for another 33,000 or even 500,000 years after the asteroid, which, if true, is amazing to think about.
I LOVE This series, Alex! Can't wait for the next one!
What a great episode!
Awesome quality and great explanation....kudos to your team. Respect from India
If you think about it, the dinosaurs were so OP , it took a meteor to take them out.
And are so OP, they are still the most diverse vertebrates in the planet.
Props to the camera man for recording all this. Thats true dedication right there
It is remarkable how tenacious and persistent life is in the face of adversity
Yeah life's a Stubborn bugger.
Fascinating and well presented. How about showing a close-up of the first life on land?
6:30 "North Dakota is 3000km away from the impact." Well, today it is. The land masses were quite different 64 million years ago. No one ever really discusses that aspect when talking about dinosaurs and this asteroid impact.
Appreciate ur analytical approach
The land masses were not quite different. Everything was in pretty much the same spot. Some land today was underwater and some water today was land, but thats it
I loved the theme of narration. Very clever. I thoroughly enjoyed this. Amazing editing.
Megatron happened
No it was The Black marker.
Iridium was widely used in the fountain pen making industry many years ago. Today it is one of the most expensive metals on the planet.
You really are the goat at makin super interesting, in-depth content. Appreciated because I’ve been addicted to this stuff more than 20 years, so it’s harder to find new content that’s actually got something new to learn. This one’s a gem, too. Good work duderiño 😂
Our alien friends appear to be flying...an x=wing? 😂 16:43
Sentinels conformed 💯
I didn't think it could change that much in a single day. That's amazing!
an Asteroid feels like a reset button
The thumbnail is... perfect! great piece of art

Amazing video ☄️
As hard as it is to find life it seems equally hard to get rid of it as well

Thanks
Awesome videos as always say!!!!!
Well done! Great episode!
I had no idea this series was going on! I'll go find the Playlist and watch from the beginning now
Astrum's videos about earth's past inspire me to reimagine 65 movie
To be fair, if the aliens visited Earth the day before the asteroid impact then there is no way they would not have noticed said asteroid bearing down on the planet from only one day out.
It's a plot device 😂
@@astrumspaceasteroid could have been hidden behind the earth .only if they orbitted the earth theyd see it but if th stopped short of earth and the asteroid was coming from behind it theyd not see it.
Lmafao at the plot device being over their head
3:35 "Two human scientists..."
Awfully suspicious thing for another *human* to say. 🤔
Yass bro that’s the most badass thumbnail
Tidal wave 3,300 ft high... I'm no scientist but I think that is a wave 3x the height of the twin towers.
I've often thought that the asteroid and volcano theories need not be exclusive. The impact shock of a 10-15km asteroid would have shaken loose every tectonic fault in the planet, resulting in mass earthquakes and supercharged volcanic activity far beyond the impact site itself.
Remember : whoever is looking at us out there is probably looking at dinosaurs right now.
this was amazing, thanks for this!
You should do when they come back in the future when humans go extinct and the Dolphins take over the land in perfect harmony
While that's a lovely idea, dolphins can actually be very cruel too. Sadly, I think any species intelligent enough to dominate the planet will be equally capable of being kind and cruel (just like us).
Goodbye and thanks for all the fish.
I'm in the Octopus camp- how many arms/legs does a dolphin have? An 8-fold octopus advantage right from the off.
Not dolphins, Poodles.
Splatoon
Imagine seeing the ocean fill back the massive crater as the land mass it just hit burns in the background. What a fittingly badass end for a group of badass animals
4:48 human scientists lol.
😂
😂😂😂
amazing video
Poor Aliens that had the ability to navigate the galaxy, but weren't able to detect local area asteroids.
it is understandable that they keep crash landing on Earth
Perhaps they did. Why would they care, though? Not their planet. And might not even have any such emotional capacity.
I mean, space is big... Really really big.
They sent the asteroid in order to experiment what would happen next 👽
@@mred8002 Or there was no detectable signs of higher levels of consciousness or civilization, so saw it as just a part of the process.
Maybe all forms of intelligent life have, somewhere in their distant past, a period of hardship. Maybe a coddled world can't make something they deem their equal.
Good job for the camera man 👍💪💪
Every time i think of this event, i just feel deep sadness.
Terrific video! I recently had a novella published through Amazon depicting the KT extinction event through the POV of dinosaurs. Though I don't show the comet impact during daylight, I depict events at night time in Thailand following the impact and the aftermath.
bro cmon u cant just say that without dropping the book title
I feel sorry for the dinosaurs.
Don’t they in Dino heaven
This is my first time watching this channel. I love how this guy watched all these documentaries and thought "i could do it better"
It was a Monday. That's why the alien cadet did not hear the "beep beep" of the Big Bada Boom radar.
It all happened all of this time goes on and who knows what the future holds. I find these videos marvelous
Fascinating video. Great content! Thank you!
Oddly enough, I will often start to tear up when this subject comes up either it be a video or in conversation. And I’m not a cryer, It’s almost as if it was such a devastating event and so sudden that the trauma is still in our DNA memory somehow?
Why do I have the feeling this 18:44 long video took 5 minutes to watch?
Time just flies by when I'm watching this channel.
Well, at least I had fun! And learned a thing or two 👍
It always makes me kind of sad thinking about it. All those amazing creatures gone.
😂 if there aren't your the first one went extinct their all ferious lol
Loved this. Thanks for making it.
I will like to see the life and animals and evolution of The whole Triassic period. - Thank you Astrum for exellent videos and stories.
Most of the newest evidence says that the asteroid weakened the whole ecosystem but the volcanoes slowly chiped away at the dinosaurs for around 200k or even a million years before most of them became extinct, but there are still debates if the volcanoes were caused by the impact or if they were active well before it and it just happened for a huge metheorite to strike at that time.
I never believed Asteroid of just 12km covered whole planet dark... fairy-tale
@Karl_Jayce It probably did make a mini ice age, but for few years max, if it was only an asteroid there would be a mass dying but not on such a huge scale. Even older models acknowledged this but they thought the asteroid triggered the vulcanism and had a much bigger impact on the extinction then what is now though.
Excellent, simply excellent. I don't know how you got permission to use clips from so many videos, but you did a wonderful job of editing and narrating. The next time the aliens visit they will see us, wallowing in our own stupidity.
we're the reason aliens don't visit
Why?
The south park episode where the aliens test our worthiness to join their galactic federation with the whole space cash scheme is spot-on.
Great depiction and explanation of this huge extinction event.. 🙏
I remember it like it was yesterday... This vid is nostalgic!
It was me btw, the rock ? Yep, my bad
That thumbnail is 🔥
Hang in there, dinosaur-kun!
Love your videos, the font of your logo looks like a beauty brand
There's a lot of Star Trek novels out there, but there is one that I read last year called "First Frontier." The story is batshit crazy. In a nutshell, descendants of dinosaurs who were seeded on another planet and have since developed into intelligent and technologically-advanced species, travel to earth, go back in time and prevent the asteroid from hitting the planet, thus essentially erasing humanity from existing, and therefore, no Starfleet. Kirk and co. are in a temporal anomaly on the other side of the quadrant that is a direct result of the timeline being altered, and they survive the changes. They go back to earth, beam down to Starfleet headquarters, and all they see is a grassland area. They also encounter Vulcans and Klingons, but both races are vastly different than what they know them as. Kirk and his people end up having to go back in time to prevent the dinosaur people from averting the asteroid impact. One of the final scenes ends with them in orbit of earth as the asteroid makes impact. Just an absolutely crazy premise for a story, but if you're both a Star Trek fan and a dinosaurs enthusiast, you will love "First Frontier."
phenomenal episode!
Some members of each type of surviving vertebrate animal now live (and may have then lived) in burrows or caves. Those environments would protect against the initial fires and overheated air which would wipe out other above ground dwellers.
something thats never been mentioned before, is there were ALOT of animals that survived the asteroid that ate eggs, mammals snakes reptiles etc., a huge factor determining what species survived the years after was whether or not they laid eggs and if they did how well were the eggs protected from predators, birds kept them safe in trees, dinosaurs would have had a hard time protecting them from small predators unless they were in marshy areas like alligators
The best place to see the iridium layer of the cretaceous-paleogene boundary is at the cliff of Stevns 40 km south of Copenhagen.
We were also taught that they speculate the dinosaur population at that time could have been struggling due to disease as well. So if you combine the Deccan Traps, asteroid impact, and disease it makes it a lot easier to see how a group that was around as long as the dinosaurs were all managed to disappear.
Obviously, that's speculation too, but I liked the multiple causes explanation because it just seems to feel more realistic than a single event wiping out all the dinosaurs. You'd think if such a single event was that catastrophic that it would have been a lot less discriminating and likely left the "New World" with a lot less diversity in its plant and animal life.
The movie '65' was so great, with Adam Driver--Alien Spaceship crash lands on earth just before the extinction event Asteroid Impact
Great Video! Snowball Earth would be interesting!
I was born in the Ford Galaxy, and I can promise my people won't harm humans, much.
First time I've watched this channel. Impressed!
I vote asteroid.👍
Thank you! I love it!🫠
Scientists: it was the astroid
Other scientists: no, it was the volcanoes
Me: por que no los dos?
i get so sad everytime i think about what the dinosaurs went thru, this is such an informative video.Thank you!
Maps are always inaccurate, because Florida was underwater at the time of the impact
