    Many of you requested all of the 12 Days of Evolution episodes in one big video, so here it is! Share 'em one at a time, or share the whole thing
 whatever feels like the natural selection. I hope you enjoyed this series. It was definitely a challenge (a FUN challenge, of course) to make this many videos in a short time and to pack this much information into them. I'm really interested to hear your reactions and feedback, so hit me up on social media or leave a comment below and tell me what you thought. Any other subjects you'd like to see a miniseries on in the future? I'll be back in January with a new video!
  • As my biology teacher said: People who deny evolution just don't understand it
  • @mencibenci
    It's refreshing not to see creationists in the comments. Unexpected, but refreshing.
  • @user-xq5og9lt8p
    I'm from 2019 and I confirm: the British do indeed exist still.
  • @Zackfish12345
    Every time I see a great evolution video I can’t help but think that most of the people who need to see it probably won’t.
  • My mom always ask me "If we are related to apes why are there still apes." I explained it to her and she got mad because she believe that God made everything the way it is. And I said, "That's religion, I speak science."
  • @rachelmarieLMT
    As an anthropologist the "if we came from "mokeys" why are there still monkeys?" drives me insane. Same with the "incredible human eye" argument against evolution. The human is is incredible but not nearly the most powerful or even most adapted in nature. Our eyes are crap compared to some species! Next argument please...lol
  • @BumMcFluff
    Reproductive isolation. Finally I have a title for my autobiography.
  • @raffydasquid174
    I love how he said why is the garbage dump next to the amusement park 😂
  • @MrASutton
    Felt so bad for that turtle drifting away, it was like .__. 'bye i guess cya later frank'
  • With sources like these, it's so hard to believe that people deny evolution
  • @manthehuman
    God was too lazy to create everything, so he downloaded an existence simulation. Then he forgot his login information.
  • @ukkomies100
    Scientists also call my life reproductive isolation
  • @Microtonal_Cats
    This video should be called "Very politely telling creationists why they're idiots."
  • @Amy-si8gq
    "if humans evolved from monkeys, then why are there still monkeys?" if branches grow from trees, then why are there still trees
  • @rateater420
    If spaghetti is god why is there still spaghetti? Checkmate pastaferians
  • @ShivamKumar110
    In the language of Software Developer- 'Survival of the fit enough' will equate to 'If it works, don't touch the code!' That's the reason why men still have nipples! :D
  • @AceSilver78
    "Congratulations on being good enough" made me laugh a lot hahaha.
