1: 10 the asteroid wasnt as big as this picture, 6 miles isnt that big lol. Thats less than a 30 min drive. It would be less than a millimeter on the world map. Theres no way an Asteroid that small could have caused a world extinction alone.
The Chicxulub impact could not have caused the mass extinction, says Princeton University paleontologist Gerta Keller, because this impact predates the mass extinction and apparently didn't cause any extinctions.
Marine sediments drilled from the Chicxulub crater itself, as well as from a site in Texas along the Brazos River, and from outcrops in northeastern Mexico reveal that Chicxulub hit Earth 300, 000 years before the mass extinction. Small marine animal microfossils were left virtually unscathed, says Keller.
In all these localities we can analyze the marine microfossils in the sediments directly above and below the Chicxulub impact layer and cannot find any significant biotic effect, said Keller. We cannot attribute any specific extinctions to this impact. No one has ever published this critical survival story before, she said. Keller's research was funded by the National Science Foundation.

Dinasours, asteroids, commits, meteor, outerspace, planets, evolution, aliens, gravity, ball earth, spinning earth, space satellite, astro nots, moon landings, landing on Mars, falling stars which are firmly put place they are(falling demons, age of the earth being billions of years old, and the sun is not 93 million miles away.
They are all fake nothing in this is our reality.
They just got an airplane shooting some coiled metal that heated up calling it a meteor and all those meteor craters are not meteor craters but giant geysers from the flood. No evidence of anything coming from above and no evidence of any rock being their. It's water pressure.

Unless your looking at the radioactive astroid that made the artic circle that pulls nasa satilights slightly out of orbktal telemetry as they pass over the north pole because the astroid that made the artic circle causeing the tsunimi that swept north too south causeing the 5000 bc mass extinction of the dinosaurs with the biblical event of noahs flood that astroid has the carbon 14 radioactive foot print indictivitive of dinosaure bones and unles your refering too that astroid your looking at the wrong astroid.

Alamosaurus is one of my favorite dinosaurs. A latest late Cretaceous titanosaur sauropod over 115 feet long. It was only fairly recently discovered how massive this dinosaur really was. Most likely migrated north from South America, where its earlier titanosaur giant relatives such as Argentinosaurus. Just a side thought: do you think the Dinosaurs heard the Ginyu Transformation theme music at the moment of impact? I know I would if I saw it.

So God looked down on his ongoing earthly experiment and saw that the dinosaurs were a dead-end creation contributing nothing to spiritual evolution. So rather than phase them slowly out, he chose to zap them all at once to clear the way for what hopefully would be a higher more evolved species. In terms of what's going on today with the so-called human race, if there's a pattern here, I strongly suggest people start living underground.

I understand they need extra dramatic effects to reel people in as they did with this thumbnail. So don't show a realistic picture of a 6 mile wide asteroid impacting the earth but instead show a 6 thousand mile wide asteroid impacting earth and it is agreed upon in the scientific community that it was closer to 50 miles wide after doing more research as of recent at the impact zone. C'mon now Weird History, you're slipping!

Some dinosaurs survived and in inevitable irony, the only ones were the smaller species that were already accustomed to preying on small mammals and birds for millions of years before The event.
We have poultry thanks to that so, I guess the real purpose of dinosaur existence and extinction, the meaning of their life, is for us to eat turkey.

The chixulub impactor had NOWHERE near enough energy to do anything to the planet. They mixed it up with the impactor that lead to the formation of the moon which happened billions of years ago and almost blew the whole planet to another asteroid belt but didn't. Man I hope someone got fired for that blunder!

That's quite funny that the professor of tektites says it is an astounding fact that the first direct victims of the impact were the fishes that ate the tektites. I take it the guys the 7000 gigatonne rock actually landed on were blown to safety, or managed to find shelter of some kind.

All this destruction. 10, 000 Billion tons of carbon Dioxide. 100, 000 Billion tons of carbon monoxide, 100, 000 billion tons of methane all in one moment released. ozone layer destroyed.
and we think some plastic bags will make a difference lol

If you were in Austin Texas and that hit Chick-fil-A Mexico, you would not hear it all you would see was a rising glow and then a deep rumbling. The scorched Earth and hellfire then sound wouldn't hit you for some time later

The amount of holes in this 'scientific' logic makes me wonder if those who study these things actually observe the world. I'd also like to know where the crater from this impact is located. Might go do my own research.

Imagine you're a Dinosaur in a fully developed civilization, much more developed from our in matter of technology and science, they may be get out off from this rock because that's what we are trying to do too lol

Can you show me what struck earth? The vacuum of space made their lungs come out. The Astroid did not vaporize. It stuck out there as the proof. Where is your proof? Is it in the pudding that everyone ate already?

Hum. Im not a expert on this. But the numbers are a bit strange. I wonder how whales, crocodiles, sharks, birds. There was many surviving creatures. If the ecosystem was destroyed. How could they all survive?

I absolutely love watching your videos! tbh i think i learn more from you than school but would you make a video about Michelangelo the artist or Claude Monette either or is fine!

That's why we are here because its happened, that's why universe sent the right size asteroid to hit right spot, it was our future and future of all current animals who live now

We'll never know for sure. First, is it the ice age or a meteor? And 66 million years ago? Does anyone realize how long that is. Cant believes anything.
