#3 What was the Earth like in the Age of Giant Prehistoric Creatures? | Documentary Earth History

🌍 At a time when we're able to perceive the infinitely small, microscopic organisms such as microbes, mites or bacteria, what do we know about the giants that once trod the earth of our planet?The elephant, the rhinoceros, the giraffe, the brown bear or the blue whale are among the largest and fattest animals of our era. No matter how big or imposing, these animals have managed to survive in their environment and develop extraordinary adaptive skills, using their extraordinary size as an asset. It's incredible to think that the blue whale, the highest-ranking animal on the podium, can measure over 30 metres and weigh up to 170 tonnes. The only reason it is able to move despite such dizzying dimensions is that it evolves in an aquatic environment. The buoyancy of the water enables it to support its own weight, move around the ocean, feed and reproduce. On land, its organs and bones would crumble under its weight.Millions of years ago, even more impressive animals lived on our planet. Animals that, if they were still around today, would change the face of the Earth. These titans from another world have managed to survive for millions of years. They have carved out a place for themselves in the cycle of life and left their mark on the planet's history. Surprisingly, unlike the whale, they didn't all live in the water. Some walked the earth, others even tamed the sky!Who were these animals? What did they look like? How could their skeletons support so much weight? How did their morphology enable them to move around despite such extraordinary dimensions, whether in water, on land or even in the air? How did their metabolism enable them to survive? What is the largest animal of all time?🔥 As a reminder, videos are published on SUNDAYS at 6pm.-------------------------💥 The Forgotten World of Prehistoric Giants: - Let's start by familiarizing ourselves with our new surroundings. We have a somewhat marshy landscape ahead of us, with plants such as Rhynia, Rellimia bushes and Leclercquia lycopods. In the distance are the tallest trees of this era. The one you see here is an Archaeopteris. It can reach a height of almost 40 meters. It could be related to our modern-day fir trees. Calm and serenity seem to reign. Everything seems peaceful.Its aerial virtuosity makes it a formidable predator, as it flies faster than most of its prey, and can suddenly change course, reverse or hover thanks to its four independently-moving wings. Our Meganeura doesn't come close to the 90 km/h top speed of our modern dragonflies, but it's almost 5 to 7 times bigger.This dragonfly has two pairs of wings. The larger of these two pairs can reach a wingspan of between 70 and 75 cm. To give you something of a comparison, the distance between its two wings is about the same as that between the two wingtips of the sharp-shinned hawk, a bird of prey specializing in the capture of birds, small mammals, lizards and frogs. Mosasaurs are one of the great marine reptiles of the Cretaceous period. Most members of this unusual family are quite exceptional in size. But the biggest of them all is Mosasaurus. At 18 meters long, it terrorized the world's seas. -------------------------🎬 Today's program: 00:00 - Introduction 03:19 - On the land of the giants 04:59 - Giant insects 05:41 - Meganeura 12:35 - Arthropleura 14:58 - Jaekelopterus rhenaniae 16:52 - Sea giants 17:12 - Shonisaurus 18:40 - Pliosaurus 22:27 - Mosasaurus 23:58 - Titanoboa 27:17 - Megalodon 30:08 - Blue Whale 33:23 - Land giants 33:37 - Spinosaurus 38:45 - Futalognkosaurus and Alamosaurus 41:34 - Patagotitan and Notocolossus 44:47 - Argentinosaurus 49:02 - Giganotosaurus carolinii 53:06 - Mapusaurus 55:42 - Titanoceratops 57:59 - Magnapaulia 59:12 - Paraceratherium 1:02:18 - Giants of the air 1:03:01 - Quetzalcoatlus 1:06:33 - Hatzegopteryx thambema 1:08:17 - Ornithocheirus 1:10:11 - Pelagornis sanderciWondody is an official channel affiliated to the network ©Orbinea Studio

🌍 Have you ever wondered what the foundations of our reality are based on?What if I told you that the world around us is governed by mysterious particles and invisible dimensions?Would you believe me?Nothing could be further from the truth...Yet the nature of the forces and elements that shape our universe is unknown to us.Admittedly, scientific advances over the last few centuries have enabled us to understand in detail the events that unfold on a macroscopic scale.But when we venture onto smaller scales, it's as if we're entering a parallel reality whose workings escape us.In this world of the infinitely small, the laws of physics and relativity we know no longer apply.Instead, we find strange, sometimes invisible particles interacting in ways so mysterious that we find it hard to believe how they work.Quantum physics, string theory, supersymmetry, the uncertainty principle...So much vocabulary that attempts to describe the mechanisms of this invisible reality to make it easier to understand.🔥 As a reminder, videos are published on SUNDAYS at 6pm.-------------------------💥Voyage vers l'Infiniment Petit: - Each discovery inevitably raises its own set of questions...In their quest to probe the microscopic world, scientists have nonetheless been able to venture deep into nature's smallest secrets.While a few decades ago we thought that atoms were the inseparable building blocks of matter, today we know that these elements are home to an incredible bestiary of particles.Quarks, gluons, Higgs bosons, neutrinos, photons...It's enough to make you dizzy!To say that these elements are minuscule is an understatement.To understand this, let's compare scales.Observations of the cosmos tell us that the diameter of the observable universe is around 93 billion light-years.This universe would include between 100 and 200 billion galaxies.In fact, our Milky Way is but a tiny drop of water in a cosmic ocean.Yet, from our perspective, its dimensions are inordinate: almost 53,000 light-years. That's enough to house between 200 and 400 billion stars, and probably more than 100 billion planets...Among these stars is our sun: nearly 700,000 km in radius.That's around 109 times the diameter of the Earth.Our beautiful blue planet, gigantic to our eyes, is in reality invisible to those of the cosmos.For if the solar system were a city twenty kilometers across, the Earth would be little more than a grape.And yet, nearly 8 billion human beings live on it.But then again, appearances are deceptive, as man is far from occupying all the space available on Earth.If we were to group together all the human beings currently living, they would fit on an area equivalent to the city of Los Angeles...So, compared to a modestly-sized terrestrial planet, man is a grain of sand.If this scale comparison gives you a slight headache, just wait for the next part.Because it's possible to go much further.Each human being, however microscopic compared to the cosmos, is made up of around 30,000 billion cells.And these tiny cells, observable only under the microscope, are themselves made up of 100,000 billion atoms!This figure varies greatly from cell to cell, but it's still completely excessive.Wait, we can go even further...If you look at the core of atoms, you'll be amazed to discover that they're 99.9%... empty!In other words, matter is theoretically made up of nothingness!It may sound crazy, but hidden in this nothingness are tiny elements of the quantum world that give life to the reality we know.And although we are made of atoms, their profound nature seems even more distant than the confines of the observable universe.So, the infinitely small conceals many mysteries.So get ready to travel to the heart of matter!Together, we'll try to unlock its secrets by literally looking deep inside ourselves...-------------------------🎬 Today's program: 00:00 - Introduction 06:11 - The macroscopic world 21:27 - Diving into the heart of atoms 35:44 - Subatomic particles 39:45 - Quarks 48:46 - Leptons 50:55 - Bosons 55:25 - The Standard Model 1:03:51 - Higgs boson 1:08:45 - The mysteries of quantum physics 1:18:20 - String theory 1:23:38 - Supersymmetry 1:26:26 - Quantum loop theoryWondody is an official channel affiliated to the network ©Production Orbinea
