01:07 - In 1980, the crazy idea was proposed
01:29 that an asteroid had come in
01:31 and would have killed the planet
01:34 and cause the extinction of dinosaurs.
01:37 And we all thought that's nuts.
01:40 It's like the National Enquirer
01:42 would have really come to an asteroid.
01:44 Asteroid, give me a break.
01:46 So we all laughed, but it was a joke.

04:26 - If you were on planet Earth 66 million years ago,
04:31 you would walk past a beautiful forest,
04:35 a Triceratops just right there across from you.
04:38 Your only worry is not to run into a T-Rex,
04:42 but for now, all is good, life is flowering.
04:46 Suddenly, in an instant, a blinding light,
04:52 and you're dead.

04:59 The asteroid impact of this asteroid was exceptional,
05:08 unlike all the other extinctions that preceded it,
05:12 this one was global and instantaneous.
05:15 It took a second or two for the asteroid
05:19 to pass through the atmosphere.
05:21 There's no way in.

05:56 No matter where you are on Earth,
06:02 you are in serious hurt.
06:05 If you're in North America,
06:06 your fate has been sealed since the first explosion.
06:09 There's smoke, dust,
06:12 the dust blocks out the sunlight.
06:14 You're a plant, no photosynthesis.
06:16 If you were a big animal,
06:18 and you've survived the initial explosion,
06:20 you probably don't have anything to eat.
06:23 You probably don't make it through the first winter.
