6 Million Years Of Human Evolution In 40 Seconds

Six million years of human evolution, shown as one continuous transformation from our earliest hominin ancestors to the modern human. Each stage in this sequence represents hundreds of thousands of years of change: the shift to walking upright, the growth of the braincase, the loss of body hair, the first use of fire and clothing. Laid end to end, the changes that feel enormous in a textbook become a single smooth morph. Based on the fossil record and current reconstructions in paleoanthropology.
