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 belt.
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.
02:02Episode 2
02:02The Empire of the Universe
02:03The Empire of the Universe
04:00Hundreds of tropical islands and opportunity.
04:19But these islands are no paradise.
04:26They are home to a formidable predator.
04:34One of the fastest, most agile dinosaurs of its kind.
04:43North America's answer to the Spinosaurus.
05:00Just not in the way you would think.
05:02Not even remotely.
05:08This is Hesperonis.
05:12He is formidable.
05:15And he is fast.
05:19But he's pretty much the opposite of his giant terrifying cousins.
05:35He's awkward.
05:37And clumsy.
05:41And has tiny teeth.
05:44Not exactly the traits of a ferocious hunter.
05:49But what he does share with Spinosaurus is that he's not confined to dry land.
06:04In fact, he's the most advanced aquatic dinosaur in history.
06:17Like some sort of prehistoric penguin.
06:22He's able to swim far out the sea to access feeding grounds that were previously out of reach.
06:51This is the bounty of his new blue realm.
07:05Down here, his big clumsy feet become powerful propellers.
07:14And his 94 needle sharp teeth snatch fish with ease.
07:38But as an air breather, he's still tied to the surface.
07:56And the surface is not a safe place to linger.
08:03Because below, there are beasts.
08:09Twice the size of a killer whale.
08:27The apex predators of these seas.
08:33The apex predators of these seas.
08:41The apex predators of these seas.
08:42The apex predators of these seas.
08:43But the-
08:44The apex predators of these seas.
08:50But the Mosasaur moves with frightening speed.
08:56Luckily, Hesperoinus is much more agile, but he's exhausted.
09:13Which gives the Mosasaur one last shot.
09:36Hesperoinus is a true survivor, venturing further into the ocean than any dinosaur ever has.
09:49But these waters are treacherous, even for the best swimmers.
10:03Despite the dinosaurs' success in the shadows, the Mosasaurs rule the waves.
10:19800 miles north, on land, it's a different story.
10:37Furelled by a warm, stable climate, the dinosaurs' dominance here is unrivaled.
10:53The great soror ponds are thriving among the tall trees, as they have since the dawn of the Jurassic.
11:08But down below, there has been a revolution.
11:18A female handersaw.
11:25While she may be dwarfed in present company, she's actually larger than an elephant.
11:34And she won't be held up by these giants.
11:39Because nothing can stop a mother on a mission.
11:45And that mission is to feed her family.
11:52Who are somewhere down there.
12:07Long ago, their cheek-stuffing ancestors were scarce and scattered.
12:16But hadrosaurs are now so successful, their herds are thousands strong.
12:25The greatest gatherings of dinosaurs the world has ever known.
12:33But this female's family isn't traveling with the herd.
12:40They're in the safety of the creche.
12:43A sprawling nursery for hundreds of young hadrosaurs.
12:51Including her own.
12:58At six months old, they have insatiable appetites.
13:03And will eat almost anything she brings them.
13:11Anything.
13:20Anything.
13:24Feeding in this bird-like way takes a lot of refills.
13:30So, she's constantly leaving to go find food.
13:36And when moms are away, little ones will play.
14:05With the wingspan of a fighter jet, pterosaurs are now bigger.
14:11Than ever.
14:15And creches are the perfect hunting grounds.
14:19Where unguarded nests are the easiest pickings.
14:27A clear thing.
14:43Despite the threat from this towering monster, the mothers will defend their babies at all costs.
15:07But the giant pterosaur is determined to feed.
15:20The screams from the nest are like a dinner bell to the predator.
15:41But the little ones aren't just crying in fear.
15:45They're calling for help.
16:06This fierce instinct to protect their young is central to the Hadrosaur's remarkable success.
16:18But other dinosaurs are taking defense to a whole new level.
16:26Because the arms race between predator and prey is escalating.
16:33And this will give rise to the most iconic dinosaurs of all time.
16:45This will take so long that the continent of North America will shift.
16:53The land buckling up into the sky.
17:06The Rocky Mountains.
17:11It's here in the foothills below that the dinosaurs are making an impact.
17:28Pachycephalosaurus.
17:31Using their outrageously thick skulls to duel for supremacy.
17:45Pachycephalosaurus.
17:46And alongside them, a dinosaur with even more impressive headgear.
17:59Pachycephalosaurus.
18:00Triceratops.
18:01Triceratops.
18:11Triceratops.
18:20Triceratops.
18:22over one meter in length.
18:33Triceratops and Pachycephalosaurus
18:36have impressive weapons.
18:40Yet there are some here
18:42that are even more armed and dangerous.
18:57Under the cover of darkness,
19:01the latest and greatest of the armored warriors.
19:06Six meters long and highly territorial.
19:16Ankylosaurus, Magnaventris.
19:26He's on patrol for intruders,
19:31bold enough to breach his borders.
19:43His tank-like torso is covered
19:45in dozens of thick, bony plates.
19:55And what's more,
19:57he has a powerful new weapon.
20:05A club-like tail,
20:06weighing half a ton,
20:09that he can use to take on
20:11whatever stalks these forests.
20:19And what's more,
20:21He senses something.
20:22Yeah!
20:25Yeah!
20:31Yeah!
20:36That's right.
20:38Yeah!
20:40Yeah!
20:41That's right.
20:51His borders have been breached
20:56by the worst possible intruder of all.
21:11A Tyrannosaurus rex.
21:52A Tyrannosaurus rex.
22:11A Tyrannosaurus rex.
22:38A Tyrannosaurus rex.
22:43Ankylosaurus versus T-Rex.
22:53An evolutionary stalemate.
22:56Millions of years in the making.
22:58A Tyrannosaurus rex.
23:09A Tyrannosaurus rex.
23:24There's one thing that does set these dinosaurs apart.
23:31Intelligence.
23:35A Tyrannosaurus rex.
23:37A Tyrannosaurus rex.
23:40A Tyrannosaurus rex.
23:53A Tyrannosaurus rex.
23:54A Tyrannosaurus rex.
24:16A Tyrannosaurus rex.
24:22A Tyrannosaurus rex.
24:24A Tyrannosaurus rex.
24:25A Tyrannosaurus rex.
24:25A Tyrannosaurus rex.
24:28A Tyrannosaurus rex.
24:37A Tyrannosaurus rex.
24:43that's because she has special plans for this takeout meal
24:53but ankylosaurus is no light snack
25:05six tons of muscle and bone with an assortment of lumps and bumps
25:25even for t-rex
25:27it's quite a drag
26:05finally her journey's end
26:17and the reason she's gone through all this effort
26:34five hungry hatchlings
26:50a ferocious killer yes
26:54but also a devoted mother
27:15she will ensure
27:18her little ones are well fed
27:25to give them the very best start in life
27:33something their distant ancestors could only dream of
27:42far back in the triassic
27:44tiny marasuchus hatched into hell
27:50these dinosaurs in the making
27:53forced to live in the shadows
27:57hiding from the ruling reptiles
28:03but when fate intervened
28:06they turned catastrophe
28:09into opportunity
28:15and began their monumental rise
28:21growing bigger
28:23stronger
28:24and ever more formidable
28:34in time
28:36they would triumph
28:37not just on land
28:41but in the sea
28:44and the sky
28:47after 160 million years
28:52the dinosaurs are now so dominant
28:56nothing on earth
28:58can stand in their way
29:06but something not of this earth
29:09will
29:12because as this family's journey
29:15is just getting started
29:18another journey
29:20is approaching its end
29:27the asteroid
29:29now hurtling towards earth
29:31at 50 times the speed of sound
29:35will finally
29:37have its date with destiny
29:39the asteroid
30:13It smashes into the ocean off the coast of Mexico
30:18with the power of a billion atomic bombs.
30:24Temperatures are hot enough to vaporize the seabed.
30:30Along with every living thing for hundreds of kilometers.
30:44Far away in the foothills of the Rockies,
30:49these great dinosaurs have no idea what's about to hit them.
31:16The largest earthquakes in history.
31:29But the worst is yet to come.
31:34An enormous wall of superheated debris explodes outward.
31:57The dinosaurs caught beneath this death cloud are entombed.
32:07The dinosaurs caught beneath this death cloud are entombed.
32:10It literally bursts into flames.
32:22Even the toughest armor is no protection.
32:35The cloud quickly engulfs the entire planet.
32:40Suffocating it with ash.
32:44Shrouding it in darkness.
33:13WTF-
33:16KANTO
33:32The few, still standing at the end of the day, are in a nightmare, choking in the gloom.
33:46The few, still standing at the end of the day, are in a nightmare, choking in the gloom.
34:16The goal for the dinosaurs is catastrophic.
34:49In the days, an impact winter descends on the earth.
35:00Global temperature is dropped by 25 degrees Celsius.
35:08Conditions too cold for almost any dinosaur to withstand.
35:27Giant sauropods laid to rest in the cinders of the varied trees that made them so tall.
35:53In their crowded colonies, those who lived together, died together.
36:08Protective mothers cannot shield their young from their freezing temperatures.
36:20The punishing cold has also taken its toll on the most famous dinosaur of all.
36:36The tyrant king has fallen.
37:01Even the mighty tyrannosaurus rex will not survive this.
37:32The tyrant king has fallen.
37:39The reign of the dinosaurs has finally come to an end.
38:16But 66 million years later, the dinosaurs are rising again, this time at our hands.
38:41Today, their fossils stand as monuments to a lost world.
38:48But more than that, they are the keys that unlock the secrets of the dinosaur story.
38:59Our understanding of their lives is now greater than ever.
39:04From their very first moments to their very last.
39:14And the revelation that on Earth's darkest day, not all dinosaurs died.
39:25Some were small enough to find shelter from the apocalypse.
39:33And survive even to this day.
39:40The flying dinosaurs we now call the birds.
39:50And the clues to their past are hiding in plain sight.
40:17The remarkable journey that started 235 million years ago continues.
40:27Alongside us.
40:31They are the last remaining link.
40:35To a long lost kingdom.
40:39One that was the age of the dinosaurs.
40:46One that was.
40:50One that was.
41:04One that was the wave of the dragon was promised.
41:05Three that were the Jetzt.
41:09One that was the worst dinosaur story.
41:15You're the most fortunate that you're going to be from now to the Earth's.
