Скачать или смотреть Earth's Worst Mass Extinction Events; Ranked

Earth has experienced at least 33 mass extinctions throughout its long 4.543 billion year long geologic history. The most severe of these is not very well known, despite coming to closest to ending all life on Earth. Today's video ranks the severity of every major mass extinction our planet has experienced, which you might be surprised to learn the extinction that ended the non avian dinosaurs is only the 5th most severe.
