From Ape to You: 7 Levels of Human Evolution

7 million years ago, a creature that looked basically like a chimp was sitting in a tree, with no idea it was about to become you. This video breaks down the entire evolution of humans into 7 levels — from our common ancestor with chimpanzees to the open question of what comes next. 🧬 What's inside: — Level 1: The common ancestor — Toumaï, Ardi, and the first hominins — Level 2: Lucy and standing up for good — Level 3: Homo habilis — the first deliberate tools — Level 4: Homo erectus — fire and leaving Africa — Level 5: Neanderthals, Denisovans, and the "hobbits" of Flores Island — Level 6: Homo sapiens and the Cognitive Revolution — Level 7: Us, right now — and what's next? Real fossils, real scientific debates that are still happening today. What do you think Level 8 looks like? Drop your guess in the comments.
