00:00stop. This will break your brain. When you picture the pyramids in Egypt, you picture
00:06ancient history, right? The beginning of everything. And when you picture a woolly
00:11mammoth, you picture the Ice Age, a totally different prehistoric world. We think they
00:18were separated by millions of years. They weren't. The Great Pyramid of Giza was finished around
00:252500 BC. At that exact same time, on a remote island in the Arctic called Wrangell Island,
00:32a small population of woolly mammoths was still alive, eating grass, walking around.
00:40In fact, National Geographic Kids confirms the last known woolly mammoths survived until about 1650 BC.
00:48That is over 1,000 years after the pyramids were built. So Cleopatra lived closer to you
00:55ordering food on your phone than the pyramids did to those last mammoths. The pyramids are that old,
01:02and the mammoths survived that long. History isn't a straight line. It's overlapping.
