We bet there are far fewer experts here.
But there must have been some creatures living on the planet at those times, right?
And some of those creatures were scarier than the dinosaurs. If not in size, then in appearance.
Today you're going to discover:
What ancient fish had a bite force twice stronger than a modern polar bear?
What ancient bird had a wingspan almost as large as an F16 fighter jet?
What monster had the body of a bull and the head of a boar?
And many more interesting things!

3:43 "they found that the jaws [of dunkleosteus] could open so quickly they sucked water in like a pump. This works well while hunting smaller prey." Meanwhile on screen: Dunkleosteus failing miserably at hunting ammonites.

Nothing is scarier than the modern day Karen

Where are the freaking dragons man

I love how they added two of my most favorite childhood memories: Walking with Beasts and ARK Survival😂
-
If we understood the length of time that was involved of ancient animals it may make better sense to our senses.
-
I love the dunkleosteus and their guillotine mouths. They are one of my favorite ancient animals.
-
Fantastic video. Literally one of the best I've ever seen. Love the detail and imagery. Great info and the way you give all sides of a hypothesis
-
I was having visions of this stuff days before coming across this video. The great continent and everything.
-
The Bloop ws the scariest of all. And some say The Bloop still exists!
-
So many species have gone extinct it's just mind boggling. Also discomforting knowing we will as well be extinct one day. We may even contribute to the cause.

Imagine a spider the size of a bus

I always loved watching these videos in junior high and high school in the mid 90s along with the planetarium always fun to listen to these folks even if alot of its theory
-
The Dunkleosteus reminds me of an episode of River Monsters with Jeremy Wade, where he investigates what kind of fish that castrated two men in New Guinea.
-
How did the scientists figure out these animal behaviors from a few fossilized bones?
-
Always fascinating. We were not there. It’s amazing how paleontologists and other scientists using only fossil remains, many times incomplete, can explain how an extinct species lived, ate and otherwise survived during their time on our planet.

kuddos to the cameramen

I do most certainly love 💕 all of the animals/fish that lived during all of the periods of the earth 🌍, and I do wish that I could have lived when they lived 😮
-
Great video, thanks.
-
There is a Dunkleosteus skull at the Royal Tyrell Museum in Drumheller, Alberta, Canada. Highly recommend checking it out if you plan a trip there!

The Cambrian Explosion was fascinating, have you done a video on that?
