This is why I always service my time machine regularly

[damonjackson]

There are actually recent studies that suggest that Prototaxites were not fungal at all, rather their own unique kingdom. It's really interesting

[vickypedia]

This is less an educational video with animated info graphics, and just straight up an educational short film. The artistry on Kurzgesagt has been absolutely beautiful lately.

This is an amazing way of making big history more relatable, much more so than just listing endless dates and complicated words. I'd be 200% up for a mini-serie of this.

[ellidominusser]

Love that you're shining light on these pre-dinosaur periods. Extremely underrated and would love more movie concepts with those.

Teacher : "Ok so what did we learn class?"

Student : "bring a spacesuit with your time machine"

[Kayrapt]

I feel invested in this character, could we get a part two?

[CassandraDia]

What amazes me is that every day for millions and billions of years was just like any other. The sun rose, the day passed, the sun set, the night fell, the sun rose again, and in the meantime, entire lives were lived out, day after day... just like today...

"The air is hot and humid like a steam room. It’s hard to breathe and your sweat can’t evaporate and cool you. Even the water can’t give you any relief – it is as hot as a freshly-run bath tub."
Yeah, I've been to Houston also.

I like how it depicts that not everything is trying to kill you like in the pop culture, theyre there to survive so they need a reason to kill otherwise its just a waste of energy and effort

[whiterabbit]

As someone who lives in a desert and have experienced 48C with mild humidity, I can say with certainty, that you feel like you're boiling alive after a few minutes of direct sunlight. It's not fun

[TheUniverseUs-ST]

This approach makes history much more relatable and easier to absorb, instead of just endless dry dates and complicated terminology. I’d gladly pay double to watch a short series like this!

Your time machine broke at the worst time in history. What I think: it stopped in the Hadean, everywhere around you is hot magma, there's no ozone layer protecting you from solar radiation, and Theia is just above your head at an accelerating speed towards the eventual collision with Earth.

[m.gaiolas]

YES, YES! PLEASE, MAKE MORE STORYTELLING VIDEOS LIKE THIS!

This is becoming my favourite series from you guys, and if possible, bring back this girl and her lovely robot friend!

I went to Las Vegas a few years ago for vacation and it was over 100 degrees Fahrenheit for the entire week. It was so dry, and it felt like I stuck my head inside of an oven every time I took a breath. I can sort of see how bad 122 degrees would be. Anything over 95 is absolutely miserable and dangerous especially when there’s no moisture in the air.

[Pearcat]

It's amazing how frequently kurzgesagt uploads now! I remember when kurzgesagt would only have like 3 videos a year. I'm so proud of this channels growth!
