Sir David Attenborough’s new Apple TV+ series, “Prehistoric Planet,” is offering up extraordinary scenes of what our world may have looked like some 66 million years ago. Best known for his hit show “Planet Earth,” the renowned 96-year-old TV personality now turns his attention to dinosaurs, using new state of the art technology. The series gives a look at how prehistoric creatures interacted with one another.

Props to the cameraman for time traveling to 66mya and recording the dinosaurs just for a TV show

To actually answer the question for the title of the video, The average temperature on Earth 66 million years ago was about 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Earth was very lush green and jungly. The days were shorter at around 22 hours, as the Sun wasn’t as bright. The moon was also a lot larger in the night sky. Dinosaur were ubiquitous and were the dominant animals on land at the time, with mammals only just starting to make their debut.

Props to the time traveler who took a recording of what each dinosaur sounds like and gave it to the producers specifically for this show

My daughter loves dinosaurs but has yet to see photos of how they “really” looked Lol This was great though 👍🏾

It’s so crazy to think that dinosaurs were living on the Earth. that’s insane

Considering that only 1 species in 10 had any individuals that were fossilized, I bet dinosaurs were so much cooler than we will ever know.

We went from worrying about Dinosaurs to worrying about Aliens, and now we're back to Dinosaurs again 😂

David Attenborough is just recalling what the world was like when he was young

At some point they will really try to make a real life « Jurassic park » with Sir Attenborough hologram in every corner explaining things to visitors

Its a mystery how the cameraman time-travelled 66 million years ago and survived amongst the dinosaurs.

You know I always wondered how Dinosaurs acted around one another. People can make videos show how they think Dinosaurs behaved but we’ll never know truly know the answer.
