Darwin's Unexpected Final Obsession

😊great vid!

I think you should see a doctor if you have a worm itch.

Is it Worm Week already?

I feel moderately sad that Darwin didn't get to join his worms...

Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln born the same day!

Holy moly. Canada sounds totally fudged.

Darwin just had ADHD and a sense of the tism

Creepy and crawly but great show

You cannot stop evolution, as everyday species evlove to survive and thrive.

Worms make me very happy, when I see a bunch of healthy worms in my garden I know that all is well. I'm with Darwin, curious nerds ftw.

<3

Old man yells at worms

Maybe I'm just parasocial, but feel like ending up in Westminister Abbey is probably the worst way to be buried, for him. Charley-D was so self concious, and had such a reverance for nature, I can't help but imagine he wanted to eaten and NOT uneaten, next to Sir. Issac Newton forever. Still screaming in the afterlife, tough luck Chuck.

If worms broke up the sea floor and killed Ediacaran animals, does that mean there is a mass extinction between the Ediacaran and Cambrian?

I have hated a barnacle and also a worm too like a man never has before

Theres still so much joy to watching an eons video as one of the few I have time for when I have to wake up early, my brain knows what it wants when my time onlin is precious

you're all amazing Steve

Darwin was truly an amazing man and as much as I wish he could have experienced modern day scientific discoveries, I think he lived during a time when he was most needed.

I've always loved the fact that he was so captivated by earthworms & rightly so, the fact that they started churning up the microbial mats (that fed all animals until then) of the ediacaran was truly game changing

worm darwin and his little worm book :3

This makes me wish we can build a time machine and bring ol' Charles to our time for a visit. I wish we can show him all the fossils we've found since his time and all the work we've done building on his. Could we see his eyes glitter once more? 🥺

Can you talk about the color of early mammals?

Nico Robin lmfao.

fascinating video. I just wish I hadn't chose to watch it while eating vermicelli.

Cambrian is my favorite time period

LISAN AL GAIB

Amazing

Farmers used to find worms very inportant

In university I had a professor who would gift a first edition copy of this book to every successful PhD candidate he had through his career.

One of the best professors ever. And truly just cared about his legacy as an educator.

Darwin🤝RFK: Worms on the brain

Isn't it obvious that the Cambrian explosion happened because brains evolved? A proper animal needs a brain to manage its body and behavior.

😂old man clear his main quest, done his side quest. Then log out and move on. Done...

Nobody ever wants to hear about MY humble worm itch:/

"If there's one thing you should probably know about the kind of guy that Darwin was, it's that, at heart, he was simply a relentlessly curious nerd."

Imagine going to a bar and Darwin starts talking about worms. I'd order two more pints for us just for starters. My wife hated the other day when I made a friend at a party that wouldn't stop talking about stingless Brazilian bees. I just love people that are passionate about really specific topics hahaha

I’m so glad she not traveling through time no more. I hosted so many proverbial funerals for her.

Steve is an acronym? Is he a rare atmospheric phenomenon?

I love the enthusiasm you bring to each of these videos!

“40 years with worms on the brain.”
RFK: Hold my beer.

Ever get caught bioturbating?

It's fascinating that Darwin was never expected to do anything great and that nobody was anticipating him creating something so incredible.

I had not heard of Darwins worm work ... thank you!!!
