Grown man here. I cried when i visited that gallery, so moved by the stories of Mary Anning and mixing in tears of joy over the fossils themselves.

It's incredible isn't it 😱 really brings the creature to life, I wish they could do it for all of them 😍
roken up with sledgehammers? I feel the pain! Good video.
I just find you so incredibly relaxing to watch, I love your fashion videos but these geology videos where you are explaining a topic that it’s obvious you love so much is a treat to watch! And I get to learn stuff at the same time 😂
I forgot how Amazing it is To Watch You doing Things You Love And too Hear Your Beautiful Voice And How Very Smart You Are. You Sound so Amazingly Smart Its So Awesome Watching Your videos. Thank You For Bringing Us Along.
Fantastic and very informative, brilliant video!👍
I love this new series! I spent a lot of my youth at the Peabody Museum of Natural History at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. This brings back a lot of memories. Can't wait for the next episode!
Thanks for taking us on this fascinating tour 😃👍! Although I must say, the physical size of many prehistoric creatures is truly frightening 😱!
Fossil hunting in Wyoming and Montana you are amazingly knowledgeable
Outstanding video, Emma! One thing I enjoy about your presentation style is that you don't use "stop action" editing like so many other folks do, so it makes your information very easy to follow. I haven't had the opportunity to visit the NHM, but I know the curator of minerals and have been promised a grand tour when I do.
Excellent, you bring the fossils to life.
Amazing video!! Thanks for sharing!!
This is brilliant!!
Another great video x
WOW, LOVING THE HAIR EM!👍👍
Loved this.
fascinating stuff - thanks
Super emma ta vidéo au top 😊😊
That was incredible. :D
I found 3 ribs outside of the boundaries of Berlin- Ichthyosaur State Park, in Nevada. APR 2017. We were on a winding dirt road in a tight canyon when I stepped out of the vehicle to "Enjoy nature" for a second. I noticed what looked like two broken ribs inside of a black rock matrix. a third was lying nearby.
yoooo let's go, holy shit this place looks rad as hell. I've never been to a sick ass museum like this, jealous
Amazing
There's a film about Mary Anning called Ammonite.
do you work at the Natural History Museum ? what drew me to your channel originally was that your recent videos are so professionally produced...an enthusiastic modern day richard attenborough
❤❤
Ema thank you for your work ! I would like to ask what micro abrasive gun you recommend and your favorite dremel bit is

Emma, I heard last night, on the BBC, that The Natural History Museum has a new dinosaur exhibit about to open. The dinosaur is suppose to be massive. Do you know anything about this? I hope you do a whole segment about it so we all can see it. Thanks!

I wondered if she was helping you. Both videos have been filmed well.
There is a cast of the Rhomaleosaurus in Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, but it’s been downsized to fit and is now about 2m long
You would hope that the Yorkshire fossil could be restored - at least to its original state - or even better - to Whitby for the 200 year anniversary of the Panatt Park museum
Mary Anning lived and found her first fossils 10 minute drive down the road from where I live

Have you changed how you produce this series? It’s got a different ‘look’ to it - better framing, colour, selective focus, pace and editing. Impressive!

Thank you for noticing! I'm using better equipment and have tried really hard to actually learn about the filming/editing process (so I'm really glad it shows!)
So cool, but i do have 1 question. How did they prep that fossil so well? Has it been prepared over the years better as technical expertise has evolved?
@EmGems

Mary Anning self taught herself the art of fossil prep and spent years on some specimens (so she was pretty good at it). But I'm not 100% sure if they haven't been re-prepped in recent years. I think not, but I'm sure curators have touched them up here and there to ensure their safety 😊 (I will ask this question for you if I ever get the chance to chat to the curators at the museum and find out!)

I’m just amazed large creatures exist today like the elephant, whale, etc.
Do you believe that fish lizards and whales went 2 the water easy food
I would stay in there all night!
women were educated
Hard to listen to your brilliant commentary while I’m thinking how great your making them pants look😊
You can teach me anything. I find you fascinating.
“Her father and her brother helped”? No they did everything, while she stood around, did nothing and took all the credit. She was literate, that was her contribution. She receives to much credit.

Her father died when she was 11. It was her literacy that helped propel their family business in selling fossils. You're just another incel mad about a woman getting credit for a "man's" job.
