The Dinosaurs Episode 4 Engsub
Transcript
00:15In the depths of space, a threat is looming.
00:22Trapped between the orbits of Jupiter and Mars,
00:28the asteroid is in the depths of space.
00:32One and a half million chunks of ancient rock circling the sun,
00:43drifting endlessly.
00:55But in a single moment of pure chance,
01:04one asteroid is thrown out of its orbit.
01:10A fleeting instant, millions of kilometers from Earth,
01:16sends it on a new trajectory towards the very center of our solar system.
01:34But its journey will come to a sudden and violent end in one of the most catastrophic events in Earth's
01:47history.
01:50And the final chapter in the epic story of the dinosaurs.
01:58It was.
01:59It was.
02:00It was.
02:01It was.

03:23It's three million years since the asteroid started its journey towards Earth.
03:30And the dinosaurs rule the planet.
03:35They dominate the land and are now entering the ocean as well.
03:44The high sea levels have split North America in two.
03:54Hundreds of tropical islands and opportunity.
04:13But these islands are no paradise.
04:22One of the fastest, most agile dinosaurs of its kind.
04:31North America's answer to the Spinosaurus.
04:48Just not in the way you would think.
04:50Not even remotely.
04:56This is Hesperonis.
05:00He is formidable.
05:03And he is fast.
05:08But he's pretty much the opposite of his giant, terrifying cousins.
05:23He's awkward.
05:25And clumsy.
05:29And has tiny teeth.
05:32Not exactly the traits of a ferocious hunter.
05:37But what he does share with Spinosaurus is that he's not confined to dry land.
05:52In fact, he's the most advanced aquatic dinosaur in history.
06:05Like some sort of prehistoric penguin, he's able to swim far out the sea to access feeding grounds
06:15that were previously a new blue realm.
06:32New blue realm.
06:41Down here, his big clumsy feet become powerful propellers, and his 94-needle-sharp teeth snatch
06:55fish with ease, but as an air breather, he's still tied to the surface.
07:32And the surface is not a safe place to linger, because below, there are beasts, twice the
07:46size of a killer whale.
08:03Mulsasaurs, the apex predators of these seas.
08:18Hesperonis must get back to the shore, but the Mosasaur moves with frightening speed.
08:32Luckily, Hesperonis is much more agile, but he's exhausted.
08:48Which gives the Mosasaur one last shot.
09:12Hesperonis is a true survivor, venturing further into the ocean than any dinosaur ever has.
09:25But these waters are treacherous, even for the best swimmers.
09:38Despite the dinosaur's success in the shadows, the Mosasaurs rule the waves.
09:55800 miles north, on land, it's a different story.
10:13Furelled by a warm, stable climate.
10:17The dinosaur.
10:23The great sauer ponds are thriving among the tall trees, as they have since the dawn of the Jurassic.
10:38But down below, there has been a revolution.
10:48A female handersaw.
10:50A female handersaw.
10:55While she may be dwarfed in present company, she's actually larger than an elephant.
11:04And she won't be held up by these giants, because nothing can stop a mother on a mission.
11:15And that mission is to feed her family, who are somewhere down there.
11:37Long ago, their cheek-stuffing ancestors were scares now so successful, their herds are thousands strong.
11:49The greatest gatherings of dinosaurs the world has ever known.
11:58But this female's family isn't traveling with the herd.
12:04There in the safety of the creche.
12:07A sprawling nursery for hundreds of young hadrosaurs.
12:15Including her own.
12:22At six months old, they have insatiable appetites.
12:28And will eat almost anything.
12:42Feeding in this bird-like way takes a lot of refills.
12:48So, she's constantly leaving to go find food.
12:54And when mons are away, little ones will play.
13:23With the wingspan of a fighter jet, pterosaurs are now bigger.
13:29Than ever.
13:33And creches are the perfect hunting grounds.
13:37Where unguarded nests are the easiest pickings.
13:55Despite the threat from this towering monster, the mothers will defend their babies at all costs.
14:19But the giant pterosaur is determined to feed.
14:31The screams from the nest are like a dinner bell to the predator.
14:37The screams from the nest are like a dinner bell to the predator.
14:52But the little ones aren't just...
14:57No!
15:03No!
15:03They look like a dinner sail.
15:09They learn quickly.
15:10Egmit, can Hasan.
15:12And here they let them SWIKA
15:13This deer's instinct to protect their young.
15:18Is central to The Hadrosaur's remarkable success.
15:24but other dinosaurs are taking defense to a whole new level
15:31because the arms race between predator and prey is escalating
15:39and this will give rise to the most iconic dinosaurs of all time
15:51this will take so long that the continent of north america will shift
15:59the land buckling up into the sky
16:12the rocky mountains
16:16it's here in the foothills below
16:22that the dinosaurs are making an impact
16:35pachycephalosaurus
16:37using their outrageously fixed skulls
16:43to duel for supremacy
16:52and alongside them
16:54a dinosaur with even more impressive headgear
17:06triceratops
17:07triceratops
17:13but she's twice the size of one
17:19and armed with spear-like horns
17:22and armed with spear-like horns

18:03and highly territorial
18:09ankylosaurus
18:10and a vendress
18:20he's on patrol for intruders
18:25Bold enough to breach his borders.
18:37His tank-like torso is covered in dozens of thick, bony plates.
18:43And what's more, he has a powerful new weapon.
18:53A club-like tail, weighing half a ton, that he can use to take on whatever stalks these forests.
19:08He senses something.
19:33His borders have been breached.
19:38By the worst possible intruder of all.
19:53A tyrannosaurus rex.
20:22A tyrannosaurus.

24:21Finally, her journey's end.
24:35And the reason she's gone through all this effort.
24:52Five hungry hatchlings.
25:08A ferocious killer, yes.
25:12But also, a devoted mother.
25:34She will ensure her little ones are well fed to give them the very best start in life.
25:49She'll only dream of.
25:54Far back in the Triassic, tiny Marasuchus hatched into hell.
26:02These dinosaurs in the making, forced to live in the shadows, hiding from the ruling reptiles.
26:15But when fate intervened, they turned catastrophe into opportunity.
26:27And began their monumental rise.
26:34Growing bigger, stronger, and ever more formidable.
26:46In time, they would triumph, not just on land, but in the sea and the sky.
26:59After 160 million years, the dinosaurs are now so dominant, nothing on earth can stand in their way.
27:13Not of this earth will.
27:18Because as this family's journey is just getting started, another journey is approaching its end.
27:33The asteroid, now hurtling towards earth, has its date with destiny.
27:47The asteroid, now hurtling towards earth.
27:54The asteroid, now hurtling towards earth.
27:57The asteroid, now hurtling towards earth.
28:09The ocean off the coast of Mexico, with the power of a billion atomic bombs, temperatures
28:19are hot enough to vaporize the seabed, along with every living thing for hundreds of kilometers.
28:37Great dinosaurs have no idea what's about to hit them.
29:04The largest earthquakes in history.
29:17But the worst is yet to come.
29:22An enormous wall of superheated debris explodes outward.
29:45The dinosaurs caught beneath this death cloud are entombed.
29:55Their world is so hot, it literally bursts into flames.
30:03Even the toughest armor is no protection.
30:13The entire planet, suffocating it with ash, shrouding it in darkness.
30:22It's dangerous.
30:22It's dangerous.
30:38The planet is so hot.
30:39It's dangerous.
30:40It's dangerous.
30:43The sea is so hot.
30:43He's cold and cold.
30:52But they're not extremely dry.
31:08The few still standing at the end of the day are in a nightmare, choking in the gloom.
31:52The end of the day are not going to die, but the end of the day are not going to
31:53die.
31:53is catastrophic.
32:23Starved of the sun's rays, an impact winter descends on the Earth.
32:37Global temperature is dropped by 25 degrees Celsius.
32:44Conditions too cold for almost any dinosaur to withstand.
33:03Giant sauropods laid to rest in the cinders of the buried trees that made them so tall.
33:28In their crowded colonies, those who lived together, died together.
33:44Protective mothers cannot shield their young from their freezing temperatures.
33:56The punishing cold has also taken its toll on the most famous dinosaur of all.
34:12The tyrant king has fallen.
34:37Even the mighty tyrannosaurus rex will not survive this.
34:44Even the mighty tyrannosaurus rex will not survive this.

34:54To be continued...
35:18dinosaurs has finally come to an end.
35:52But 66 million years later, the dinosaurs are rising again, this time at our hands.
36:17Today, their fossils stand as monuments to a lost world.
36:24But more than that, they are the keys that unlock the secrets of the dinosaur story.
36:35Our understanding of their lives is now greater than ever.
36:40From their very first moments to their very last.
36:50And the revelation that on Earth's darkest day, not all dinosaurs died.
37:00Some were small enough to find shelter from the apocalypse.
37:09And survive even to this day.
37:16The flying dinosaurs we now call the birds.
37:26And the clues to their past are hiding in plain sight.
37:53The remarkable journey that started 235 million years ago continues.
38:03Alongside us.
38:07They are the last remaining link.
38:11To a long lost kingdom.
38:16That was the age of the dinosaurs.
38:22Of course.
38:23Of course.
38:23Of course.
