Скачать или смотреть The Toba Supervolcano : Survival Evidence From India | History Beyond 5000

The Toba Supervolcano , the biggest explosive eruption of the last 2.5 million years - nearly erased humanity. Around 74,000 years ago, this massive eruption in present-day Indonesia unleashed destruction thousands of times greater than a regular volcanic eruption. Known as the Toba event, it triggered catastrophic global climate change, plunging Earth into a volcanic winter.

Its ash and cooling effects reached far across the Indian subcontinent, reshaping ecosystems and testing human survival. Many scientists believe it caused a drastic population decline, while new evidence suggests some humans not only endured but adapted.

Watch the full video to explore the Toba supervolcano eruption, its devastating impact on the environment, its influence on human evolution, and the surprising resilience of early humans in the Indian subcontinent.
