American frontier... 3 00:00:11,262 --> 00:00:14,933 and run headlong into a deadly roadblock. 4 00:00:21,398 --> 00:00:24,943 A trap 200 million years in the making... 5 00:00:26,194 --> 00:00:28,446 that for one infamous group... 6 00:00:31,616 --> 00:00:33,451 will end in horror. 7 00:00:35,161 --> 00:00:40,041 An epic tragedy with surprising roots in big history. 8 00:00:40,667 --> 00:00:43,336 We think of history as a timeline... 9 00:00:43,420 --> 00:00:47,882 a series of events stretching a few thousand years into the past. 10 00:00:47,966 --> 00:00:50,051 It's time to think bigger. 11 00:00:50,135 --> 00:00:55,098 Instead of a line, imagine a web of infinite connections... 12 00:00:55,181 --> 00:00:57,559 interacting over billions of years... 13 00:00:57,642 --> 00:01:01,062 linked together to create everything we've ever known- 14 00:01:01,146 --> 00:01:04,399 our universe, our planet... 15 00:01:04,482 --> 00:01:06,067 and us. 16 00:01:06,151 --> 00:01:10,155 When we consider our most epic moments through the lens of science... 17 00:01:10,238 --> 00:01:12,615 we unleash a revolutionary new idea- 18 00:01:13,199 --> 00:01:17,245 the movement of atoms steer the movements of men... 19 00:01:17,328 --> 00:01:19,748 civilizations, galaxies. 20 00:01:19,831 --> 00:01:24,127 History as we know it is about to get big. 21 00:01:28,548 --> 00:01:31,092 [ Narrator] America is growing. 22 00:01:31,176 --> 00:01:32,177 “Yam! 23 00:01:32,260 --> 00:01:35,430 Ana' in a great migration across the continent... 24 00:01:35,513 --> 00:01:38,433 thousands brave an arduous trek west... 25 00:01:38,516 --> 00:01:42,645 in search of land and prosperity. 26 00:01:44,856 --> 00:01:47,025 Most will succeed... 27 00:01:49,778 --> 00:01:51,863 but not all. 28 00:01:57,076 --> 00:01:58,578 In just six months... 29 00:01:58,661 --> 00:02:03,583 the 81 members of the Donner party cover 1,500 miles... 30 00:02:03,666 --> 00:02:08,546 and climb their final obstacle- the High Sierras. 31 00:02:08,630 --> 00:02:11,257 We imagine migrants and their wagon trains and so on... 32 00:02:11,341 --> 00:02:13,885 heading off in that direction looking at what's coming. 33 00:02:15,845 --> 00:02:17,388 This terrifying barrier. 34 00:02:26,105 --> 00:02:28,650 [ Narrator] A 10-day blizzard traps the Donners... 35 00:02:28,733 --> 00:02:31,402 in one of Earth's most extreme climates. 36 00:02:32,403 --> 00:02:34,572 Half will perish. 37 00:02:35,657 --> 00:02:39,244 Others resort to cannibalism to survive. 38 00:02:40,995 --> 00:02:46,376 Traditional history tells us their horrible fate is a cautionary tale. 39 00:02:49,003 --> 00:02:53,842 But big history reveals that the Donner story is pan' of a bigger pattern... 40 00:02:56,177 --> 00:02:58,930 a surprising link between mankind... 41 00:03:00,098 --> 00:03:02,559 and the ground beneath our feet. 42 00:03:10,733 --> 00:03:13,653 Because of their thin air, freezing temperatures... 43 00:03:13,736 --> 00:03:15,613 and perilous terrain... 44 00:03:15,697 --> 00:03:18,700 mountains are nature's barriers. 45 00:03:19,993 --> 00:03:24,581 A single range can stretch more than 4,000 miles. 46 00:03:25,415 --> 00:03:29,919 And the highest peaks on Earth reach six miles into the sky. 47 00:03:32,755 --> 00:03:37,969 Big history connects these barriers to the global migration of mankind. 48 00:03:46,477 --> 00:03:49,147 This is the Earth as we know it- 49 00:03:49,230 --> 00:03:51,399 seven separate continents... 50 00:03:51,482 --> 00:03:54,485 dotted with dozens of different mountain ranges. 51 00:03:55,361 --> 00:03:59,949 The Himalayas, the Alps... 52 00:04:00,033 --> 00:04:04,329 the Andes, the Rockies. 53 00:04:06,497 --> 00:04:08,416 But what most people don't realize... 54 00:04:08,499 --> 00:04:11,502 is that these mountains aren't separate at all. 55 00:04:11,586 --> 00:04:13,254 They're connected... 56 00:04:13,338 --> 00:04:16,341 forming just two major mountain systems. 57 00:04:21,179 --> 00:04:23,973 In the east is the Alpide Belt... 58 00:04:24,057 --> 00:04:28,853 one gigantic system stretching across all of Europe and Asia. 59 00:04:30,355 --> 00:04:34,067 It runs from the Apennines to the Alps to the Balkans through Turkey... 60 00:04:34,150 --> 00:04:36,152 right on through to the great Himalayan range. 61 00:04:37,987 --> 00:04:41,699 [ Narrator] Its origin 70 million years ago- 62 00:04:41,783 --> 00:04:45,286 a monumental collision of the Earth's tectonic plates... 63 00:04:45,370 --> 00:04:48,247 the south crashing into the north. 64 00:04:49,165 --> 00:04:51,584 [ Markley ] Africa and India were moving from the south... 65 00:04:51,668 --> 00:04:54,796 and gradually heading north and colliding with Eurasia. 66 00:04:54,879 --> 00:04:57,507 This led to this great Alpide mountain range. 67 00:04:59,842 --> 00:05:03,596 [ Narrator] The Alpide Belt may contain the highest peaks... 68 00:05:10,311 --> 00:05:14,107 but there's another, larger mountain system on Earth. 69 00:05:14,190 --> 00:05:16,484 It circles the Pacific Ocean... 70 00:05:16,567 --> 00:05:19,404 stretching the length of the Americas in the west... 71 00:05:19,487 --> 00:05:21,906 and Asia in the east... 72 00:05:21,990 --> 00:05:25,827 to create the formidable Ring of Fire. 73 00:05:28,246 --> 00:05:32,500 Together, the Alpide system and the Ring of Fire... 74 00:05:32,583 --> 00:05:35,169 divide up the continents. 75 00:05:36,295 --> 00:05:39,090 But big history shows us that for mankind... 76 00:05:39,966 --> 00:05:42,552 it's how they divide us that matters. 77 00:05:49,475 --> 00:05:53,146 As humans look for places to settle around the planet... 78 00:05:53,229 --> 00:05:57,692 the prime spots sit within the east-west temperate zone... 79 00:05:57,775 --> 00:06:01,112 where crops and animals thrive. 80 00:06:01,195 --> 00:06:04,282 [ Markley] Human migration tends to run east-west. 81 00:06:04,365 --> 00:06:06,005 The length of the days remains the same... 82 00:06:06,034 --> 00:06:08,202 the temperature tends to remain about the same... 83 00:06:08,286 --> 00:06:10,538 the rainfall tends to be pretty consistent. 84 00:06:10,621 --> 00:06:15,209 That means that whatever you were growing in one place will probably transfer. 85 00:06:16,794 --> 00:06:20,923 [ Narrator] In Europe and Asia, the Alpide Belt runs east-west... 86 00:06:21,007 --> 00:06:25,887 so people here can migrate unobstructed alongside the mountains... 87 00:06:25,970 --> 00:06:28,306 to reach new farmlands. 88 00:06:31,309 --> 00:06:34,729 Not so on the other side of the world. 89 00:06:36,397 --> 00:06:39,901 The amazing thing about the Ring of Fire is that it's a north-south system... 90 00:06:39,984 --> 00:06:42,779 instead of an east-west system like the Alpide Belt. 91 00:06:45,740 --> 00:06:48,576 [ Narrator] North-south mountains are a roadblock. 92 00:06:48,659 --> 00:06:52,580 They cut people off from desirable land on the other side... 93 00:06:52,663 --> 00:06:55,666 and make it harder for mankind to move around. 94 00:07:00,088 --> 00:07:04,467 In North America, pioneers face a series of massive obstacles... 95 00:07:04,550 --> 00:07:07,345 as they settle the West. 96 00:07:08,805 --> 00:07:11,599 First, the Appalachians. 97 00:07:11,682 --> 00:07:15,019 A thousand miles later, the Rockies. 98 00:07:15,103 --> 00:07:18,189 And after that, the Sierras. 99 00:07:18,272 --> 00:07:21,150 These ranges run north to south. 100 00:07:21,234 --> 00:07:23,528 They block the way. 101 00:07:25,071 --> 00:07:27,615 So for settlers like the Donner party... 102 00:07:27,698 --> 00:07:32,120 Crossing them is dangerous but unavoidable. 103 00:07:33,621 --> 00:07:36,457 And the mountains that divide the earth... 104 00:07:36,541 --> 00:07:39,836 also separate us from each other... 105 00:07:39,919 --> 00:07:42,713 and even bring us to war. 106 00:07:43,714 --> 00:07:47,009 Big history connects forward to eastern Europe... 107 00:07:57,895 --> 00:08:00,189 where the Balkan mountains divide people... 108 00:08:02,108 --> 00:08:04,819 by ethnicity and religion. 109 00:08:04,902 --> 00:08:09,031 [ Man ] There always has been a lot of conflict in the Balkans. 110 00:08:09,115 --> 00:08:12,493 It's this place that's always boiling with tensions. 111 00:08:12,577 --> 00:08:15,580
