Whoa, I had no idea the Tully monster was in the Carboniferous! Given the taxonomic frustration it has caused, I guessed it would be the Silurian or earlier. I'm humored that I'm familiar with almost all the inverts than the vertebrates you displayed. (Arthropods seem to get most of the attention during this time. I also thought edaphosaurids were strictly Permain. Rhizodus would be my favorite here: super cool to know there were monster -coelacanths- back in the day. Thanks for the visual teaching session!

The Carboniferous period is arguably the most under appreciated period of earths prehistory. Many of these creatures were giant insects that are both terrifying and interesting as well some reptiles and amphibians. I kinda wish these creatures didn-t go extinct but at the same time, I-m kinda glad they don-t exist anymore lol. It-s good to see prehistoric animals that weren-t Dinosaurs getting more recognition.

Now my question is- Why did you go there only with a swim suit short and a snorkel? Like there are giant amphibians, eurypterids, and fish, that is as hell dangerous you should at least done like Nigel Marven and brought a shark mail armor, to protect yourself, be cautious next time.

The Carboniferous period far one of the most elusive periods that paleontology studies. Since a majority of the period is forest, many of the animals have been lost forever due to acidic soil. Think of the many animals that we never will know existed.

Hmm, the proterogyrinus in its own way looks big enough to ride, -if- it were still around.
Those big enough to ride, -if- they were still around, being eogyrinus and rhizodus, ignoring the prehistoric sharks.

Idea; wait until all the JWE2 dlc is out, then do a comparison like you did for the Jurassic Park/world movies, but this time include the IRL versions in the size comparison crawl, so we can see the difference.

Excellent work as ever, especially representing such an underrated era - amphibians and reptiles diversifying and evolving, swarms of giant insects, plus so many weird and wonderful fish forms.

I hope you make more videos on other underrated times in Earth's history, like the Devonian or Ordovician, because there are a lot of cool and underrepresented species from those times.

OK fhe bug bugs are cool, and I want a pet arthopleura. But the fish and amphibians at the time we're truly bizarre. Makes sense when the world is a giant swamp

I firmly don-t Think Caveman/ Human could survive any time periods except our own we evolved in.
Not without great Trial and Error

Great, thank you. The age of big insects/anthropods.
Imagine the size of insects in an atmosphere with 50% or more oxygen.

Eres partidario de que los helicopriones, edestus y todos los eugeneodontiformes eran selachiformes y no holocefalos?

Hibbertopterus is wrong I think, it was not 2. 5 m that-s more jeakilopterus, it-s more 4ft long

Giant arthropods and amphibians, first diapsids, synapsids and cephalopods, weird fishes. What a nice era.
