Imagine a world where blue eyes didn’t exist - because, believe it or not, there was a time when that was the case. Today, blue eyes are a captivating feature, celebrated in everything from love songs to Hollywood films. But here’s the twist: only about 8-10% of people around the globe have them. And in the U.S., where blue eyes were once nearly as common as apple pie, they’re now a rare sight, with numbers dwindling by the decade. So, what happened? How did this mesmerizing eye color come into existence, and why is it fading away?

In this video, we’re diving into the incredible story of blue eyes - how a single genetic mutation thousands of years ago sparked the creation of millions of blue-eyed individuals. We’ll uncover the secrets behind their unique appearance, trace their spread across the world, and explore the science that explains why blue eyes are becoming a rarity. If you’ve ever been captivated by the mystery of blue eyes, you won’t want to miss this journey into their evolutionary past!

Blue eyes might seem like a common trait, especially if you’ve grown up surrounded by people who have them. But globally, they’re actually quite rare - only about 8-10% of the world’s population has blue eyes. In the United States, the numbers tell an even more fascinating story. At the turn of the 20th century, nearly half of all Americans had blue eyes. Today, that number has dropped to just 17%. So, what’s behind this dramatic shift?

I and my husband have blue eyes. I have 4 grandsons with blue eyes. I would love to know who the common ancestor is that brought blue eyes to the world

Blue eyes offer advantages. That's why I could see a poisoness snake in the dark and saved my husband's life.

My sister has green eyes and her husband brown and both their children are blueeyed!! Well me myself as their aunt is blueeyed and in our linage there are both blue and browneyed people but it was funny to see two not blueeyed people getting two blueeyed children!!😊❤

[fedupwitumboth]

My daughter and her husband both have brown eyes their son has blue eyes. However, both grandmothers (I’m one of them) have blue eyes.

My eyes have always been considered to be blue. Once we were at the eye doctors and the shade of blue was being discussed. I asked the doctor what color would she consider my eyes to be and she said blue. But then when she looked at them with the machine she was surprised to see they were actually green. Go figure!

Blue eyes have always existed. It is part of the genetic variation within the human population that has been there ever since humans were created.

My husband and I both have green eyes and straight dark brown hair. Our daughter was born curly blonde and blue eyed. It was so unexpected! She looks like a cherub ❤

[skatpak]

[bluedancelilly]

Since it takes 2 blue eyed parents to have a blue eyed child, there couldn't have been just one person with blue eyes 10, 000 years ago that led to more blue eyes. Who did that one person mate with if everyone else in the world had brown eyes. The mutation could not have been passed on. Makes me doubt this whole video since its based on a claim that makes no sense.

[caspiankanai]

Haven't watched the video yet, but by world population percentage its more rare to have green eyes than to have blue ones.

If brown is dominant over blue and blue is disappearing. Try this: Follow the line back in time until Start. All humans had blue eyes. Stop and think again... what has happened. Remember that blue is recessive meaning you only get it when both parents have it. If it was a mutation (it wasn't) than somewhere, sometime a man and a woman with the same mutation (chance?) met each other and had kids. Chance is practically zero, so go back to Start!

So to preserve blue eyes we need to put up a supporting breeding program..
As blond hair is in the same decline lets hit 2 target at the same time.
And make a nice breeding program for blond haired blue eyed people.. 😊
Why hasnt annyone ever thought about that?

[embassyofbellerose]

My eyes are blue/green, which change with the weather, quite often, being more green? Plus, my hair is hard to pin down, as to whether it is blonde, light golden brown, or, reddish blonde? Plus, I do not color my hair.

[m.f.t.]

Blue eyes only 6000 years old? Impossible.

[dayzeelu]

I have brown eyes, my husband's eyes are green. My son has hazel eyes. And my daughter has one blue and one green eye.

[AstorsonofEl]

Its the eye color on statutes of the Anunnaki from around the 🌎

[allies]

My sister has blue eyes and I have Green hazel, however, my dna profile says I have blue. Do people who have the blue eyed dna also descend from this individual?

I thought left handedness was a recessive gene, but I know two left handed (both left handed) couples who had right handed children.

the 10, 000 year origin has been disproven.
