Also missing: They only drilled a single spot (ony a few cm wide). Ideally, they should've drilled different spots around a much larger area to get a general picture. (maybe other teams had already done so in the past, which would explain the huge sample storage room at Bremen... idk)

@paulohagan3309 3 ай бұрын

@@BarelloSmith You seem quite frustrated about all this lack of information. As it happens, I also have similar feelings about other subjects in politics. Instead of getting exasperated, I put in YT comments to explain for example, why it is enormously difficult for China to invade Taiwan. Because it's political, things get much more heated than on science channels [usually]. But I spread information that people do not normally know. How about you going around the various dinosaur channels and gently commenting on the fact that avian dinosaurs survived, that any mammal over, if I remember right 25 kg, also went extinct.? You could also mention that the survivng animals didn't easily survive the shifts in temperature over the succeeding days, months and years. If you do it often enough, you might be surprised how quickly people become aware. For example, I note a lot more people now know that China cannot send an invasion fleet whenever they want but have to wait for calm waters that only occur two months of the year. Now I don't know if my comments contributed to that but I made the attempt. May I suggest that you educate, not ventilate, sir/madame?

@dadada486 2 жыл бұрын

Amazing documentary, but i think the event though extraordinary as it was wasn't nearly as fateful. Mammals (or Synapsids) already existed for hundreds of millions of years and in fact had dominated the world before the dinosaurs: the Therapsids. Also, the dinosaurs never really went extinct as the birds are dinosaurs, and they are in fact extremely successful! That said the fact that this event was large enough to virtually reshape the planet and cause a global fire is fascinating and terrifying to imagine. The animals that survive it are legends!

@alexpulin5813 Жыл бұрын

yeah.... the flying theropods...., but wath about the common theropods? ornitisquian and even sauropods? the dinosaurs are terrestrial animals birds are theropods who dont look like the other theropods.... so, we can truly say that dinosaurs dont die, when only the flying descendents from the terrestrial theropods survived the mass extintion? y dont think so, like the synapsids went exting bit they leave us like is descendents, the dinosaurs die

@dadada486 Жыл бұрын

It depends, many of the bird's ancestors looked like bird's... They had feathers, and if you saw them, you would've thought it was a bird...my point is that people say the dinosaurs went extinct, but they never did. Birds aren't just the descendants of dinosaurs. They ARE dinosaurs. They are within the dinosaurian clade. It just that the smaller and flying dinosaurs survived the mass extinction. Also, you are wrong. Synapsids didn't go extinct since we are synapsids!

@nibiruresearch Жыл бұрын

Thanks to the geologists, we think that all living things on our planet have the most to fear from an asteroid impact. But the dinosaurs and other mastodons were most likely not wiped out by an asteroid impact. Not only because they seem to like to kill each other, but mass extinctions occur more often than previously thought and they occur according to a fixed schedule. Scientists are walking in the dark as long as they ignore ancient texts, like the Indian Mahabharata and the Mayan Popol Vuh, that tell us that our planet Earth is suffering from a cycle of seven natural disasters. Those disasters are causing a huge tidal wave, massive floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, and a bombardment of fiery meteors every few thousand years. Several animal species become extinct and mankind hardly survives. The only possible natural cause of this cycle can be a ninth planet in our solar system, orbiting our sun in an eccentric orbit. If you don't know this cycle, history is incomprehensible. To learn much more about the cycle of recurring floods and its timeline, the recreation of civilizations and ancient high technology, read the eBook: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". You can read it nicely on every computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: invisible nibiru 9
