Was looking for the fight between the religious and the others in comments, but it's all about the animation 😅

[MrSingh-fudz]

Me comes to comments to know about something new and interesting

I sees: everyone talking about the animator.

[jimmyzeng]

Kako Abraham is the animator, just to emphasize for the fact everyone (including me) loves this animation so much

[ShahriarShanto]

Big applause for the motion graphics & VFX!
Thank you BBC, for the production.

[zafirhafi]

A separate tutorial video should be made on how to animate like the bbc animator

[celibate]

the power of animation this video holds is unbeatable

[RAMESH_WARAN]

The animator shocked me more than Darwin.

[aneeshraam]

admit it guys this music made this interesting and the voice is too soothing

[ferlyntaho]

I quite like how this video was composed: the sequencing of the animation and how well it went with the music - even the narrator fit so well. It gave the information very friendlily.

The comment section has devalued my faith in humanity. Darwin was right. Get over it

This video is really good! In my school here in Brazil we just used your video! And the animation is really good to! (Sorry for the bad English, I'm still learning)

When i searched “darwin” This showed up when I was actually searching for The Orange Goldfish from Gumball

[abdoomar-jxpm]

people dislike this video even though the animator spend probably days on this. also, the content and the way of delivering it is not bad at all.

[amiraliaghamiri]

It took Darwin( one of the greatest scientists ever) 20 years to develop the evolution theory but it took bill nye one minute to say all people used to be black.

[GuyRegular]

I don't think the question is how did he come up with it?, The question should be how did he recognize it?. Biological evolution was a fact before Darwin was able to see what was happening and wrote his book. I also don't like the fact people often ask " do you believe in evolution?" That's a poor question. Biological evolution is not a belief system and labeling it as such reduces it to the level of religious superstition. The question should be, do you accept the massive amount of peer-reviewed scientific evidence that proves biological evolution is a fact?

[Greenpoloboy]

Blimey, this comment section is going to be WAR!!!

[izrelli]

To be fair, the idea of evolution was known before Darwin. It is the explanation he gave, natural selection, what gave acceptance to it.

Just watched this video for a class assignment and was blown away by the editing on the video. The description says it was made by Kako Abraham. They definitely gained a new fan today!
