Whoever asked about bioethics didn’t see Jurassic Park where dr.Malcom goes “you were so invested in can we, you never thought should we.”

Did anyone else think that he sounded like Harlan Elison as AM, but like... the opposite? Like, if AM was nice.

10 seconds in and I already love this guy

bananas!😎

This man is happy to be alive - just full of wonder
Need this

Blue eyes, as with white skin is an evolution that happened to adapt to environment with less sun.
That is in fact why people living in thoose areas have white skin and blue eyes.

Love the raspy end to each sentence haha

inflammatory thumbnail, downvote

Apparently, some dinosaurs evolved into birds way before the asteroid

He kinda looks like rob Lowe……..

We know what that is and it ain’t a coconut definitely sum type of nut involved tho

The evolutionary advantage of blue eyes is the fact that they're often considered attractive.

nono, I am here for the blue eye question, I can only assume, the advantage of blue eyes are people back then thought (and rightly so) blue eyes are attractive af, but the question was how does it happen, like the first person popped out with blue eyes? why did the first person have blue eyes? if blue eyes were a mistake, why are there no other random colours?

thank you, I loved this!!❤❤❤

Man came prepared

Ive been on a 3hr deep dive of WIRED support videos and nothing tickles me more than when these specialists read profanity with enthusiastic enunciation 🤣

Evolution gives me hope that one day humans wont be this stupid

Love how he described the Achaeopteryx exactly like a cat

What's "weird" about blue eyes?????

I do not now this person's academic credentials. Most entertaining. Regarding blue eyes, got caught up in an argument with my spouse. Who tried to convince me blue or hazel eye color was dominant gene; blond/light color hair was also dominant gene. (That man is no longer my husband. Thought I would provide a bit of a giggle to others.)

Fun ji. 😂 🤦‍♂️

Do Americans typically say “Shpeshies” like that? For species. I never realised and I’ve lived here for 10 years

I love the fact that we evolved to see experts comment their knowledge field on internet, compared to 60y ago when people used to ask their priest for advice/knowledge

This man is a joy!

I wish more people were like this. Instead of most of the people that make the news these days…

Bunch of blue eye haters around here 😂

👍‍‍🌟👍‍‍

It's ironic how this guy reminds me so much of my high school biology/horticulture teacher; his mannerisms and speaking style. Which I miss these subjects because of how intricately complex life is.

bring this guy back!!

Fabulous presentation! I couldn't stop thinking, "This is George McFly had he chosen a different career path." And I mean that with every compliment. 🤓

Client: we need a biologist character

Bethesda:

This was one of the most interesting ____Support episodes yet!

Not all adaptations need a survival function to proliferate. Blue eyes are likely just more attractive, so the people with those genes reproduced more often.

Imma need... One of those... Coconut seeds...

It is so wonderful to listen to the talks of all those experts in their fields.

A virus is very much like a flash drive.

Cool uncle vibes

"What does it mean to be alive?"
As a chemist, I'd say that "Life" is a series of ongoing chemical (or biochemical, if you must) reactions. When those reactions stop, you die. No mystery, no magic and no miracles.

I love this man

That deer part is my new learning that they don’t have upper teeth and what they bite is a rough cut

Hear me out…close your eyes…don’t you hear Kasey Kasem?

This is who we all would love to have as a teacher/tutor/professor - his enthusiasm is infectious and encouraging 😊

Nope.... I have NO IDEA what the evolutionary advantage of blue eyes could possibly be. 🤷🏿‍♂️

look like dafoe

he should’ve said how do blue eyes make their colour. That would’ve been interesting.
