I remember seeing an exhibit on Pikaia at the Royal Tyrell Museum in Alberta when i was a kid, and being completely dismissive of the possibility of it being related to us. After learning more about evolution as I got older, however, I came to see the logic behind the classification.

However, these animals and apes do not relate to us humans. Evolution is a false theory that no one can prove. Charles Darwin also had doubts about this theory and why follow a man who doubts his own theory. No one has ever found transitional fossils in the fossil record which disproves Evolution. In fact, the fossil record shows us that these animals died and were buried quickly and they were trying to escape something. And that thing was a great flood explained in the book of Genesis. When the flood waters covered all of earth, it displaced the sediment of the earth and covered the doomed animals in a rocky and muddy tomb, encasing their remains and preserving it for many years. People even found blood tissue and flesh still intact. If evolution were true, our DNA would be linear, however, it is not and in fact it's the most complex thing in the world. Because God created the heavens and the earth and designed all of the animals and created us in his image. Monkeys and apes are animals and are not related to us and only have lower than 50% similarity to us and not 99% related at all because they only counted the similarities and not the whole genome. Even if Evolution and atheism were true, then the world would be in chaos because there would be no right and wrong and no sense of morality, as seen with Hitler, Stalin, and Zedong. Jesus Christ is more reliable than anything we have in this world. He is historically reliable, followed his teachings perfectly and never sinned, and died for our sins and rose from the grave to prove that you are worth something. Evolution makes man stupid instead of smarter. People say that Christianity is a fairy tale and yet they're the ones who believe that nothing created everything and we just evolved from soup, which is bogus, hypocritical, and unscientific. Jesus Christ says he is the way the truth and the life, no man comes onto the father but by him because he is God in the flesh. For the people who will see this, i recommend you to study Jesus and compare him to everyone else in this world. God loved you to die for you and he wants you to repent and turn away from your sins and follow Jesus.

2:30 I don’t actually believe decay is a sad thing Because decay and flourishing never come alone, according to thermodynamics, energy can’t be created nor destroyed, only transformed So, when something grows, other thing has to decay, it’s just isn’t always visible Life and death aren’t enemies, but rather two inseparable parts of the cosmos, at least within the realm of our laws of physics

Thank you so much......that was lovely. Just subbed and rang.

14:59 Where's the wiener? Okay, but seriously: All animals reproduce, as reproduction is essential to being a living organism, so where on this thing is the gamete chamber/delivery organ(s)? Being such an early and basal animal, it almost certainly reproduced in a way similar to ferns, fungi, eels, and some fish - that is, to *splooge* a bunch of gametes into the water and hope the currents carry them to their counterparts for fertilization (spermatozoa to ova, and vice-versa). Since Pikaia is a moving animal, it likely got into a writhing, frenzied orgy which left the surrounding water turbid with gametes, much like a salmon would. So that begs the question: if the Burgess shale preserves even the innards, where *is* the splooge dispersal unit (most likely a cloaca) on the Pikaia?

This is your best script work to date.

Keep up the good work!

I like how you have the Fedx amphibian 🤣 they found that a few miles from my cousin’s house out by moon township PA. I live in Turtle Creek Pa and the rock age here is Casselman loaded with fossils but nothing newer or older than 301 to 304 million years old. I would love to get a job studying fossils and animals

Definitely not the first vertebrate because the older Myllokunmingia is known and has more developed head and eyes. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myllokunmingia#:~:text=Myllokunmingia%20is%20a%20genus%20of,(518%20million%20years%20ago).

16:08 The information on the graph doesn’t match the information stated

It's hard for ape brains to imagine the unbroken chain of countless individuals, and generations it took through unimaginable deep time to survive long enough to pass its DNA on them.

Have I watched too much Guga foods or am I crazy for thinking that Pikaia sounds a bit like that one cut of meat he loves to cook in his videos?

I knew I could hear Aria Math in the background!

When you think that all our ancestors, every single one, were successful enough to leave their parents, find a mate and live long enough to pass their genes on. All the way back to Pikaia & earlier to the gene swapping tangle of early life. It's a sobering thought and just part of the awe that this collection of ash of long dead stars feels when i look the universe full in the face and it just doesn't notice! A splendid video! I loved it, thank you!
