1
00:00:09,134 --> 00:00:15,181
75 MILLION YEARS AGO

2
00:00:15,682 --> 00:00:17,767
In the depths of space,

3
00:00:18,727 --> 00:00:20,603
a threat approaches.

4
00:00:22,647 --> 00:00:26,526
Trapped between the orbits of Jupiter and Mars.

5
00:00:28,778 --> 00:00:30,947
The asteroid belt.

6
00:00:33,324 --> 00:00:37,454
A million and a half pieces
of ancient rock,

7
00:00:38,329 --> 00:00:40,206
around the Sun.

8
00:00:43,626 --> 00:00:46,046
Continuously drifting.

9
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,559
But, in a single moment of pure chance…

10
00:01:04,731 --> 00:01:08,818
…an asteroid is expelled from its orbit.

11
00:01:11,029 --> 00:01:12,864
A fleeting moment,

12
00:01:13,615 --> 00:01:16,451
millions of kilometers from Earth,

13
00:01:17,077 --> 00:01:19,913
send him on a new path,

14
00:01:20,830 --> 00:01:24,584
towards the center
of our solar system.

15
00:01:35,553 --> 00:01:40,308
But your journey will come to an end
sudden and violent,

16
00:01:42,185 --> 00:01:45,438
in one of the most catastrophic events

17
00:01:46,231 --> 00:01:48,066
in Earth's history.

18
00:01:51,277 --> 00:01:53,154
And the final chapter

19
00:01:54,405 --> 00:01:56,282
of the epic story

20
00:01:57,492 --> 00:01:59,452
of dinosaurs.

21
00:02:56,217 --> 00:03:00,722
THE TRUE STORY OF DINOSAURS

22
00:03:06,728 --> 00:03:13,610
CHAPTER 4: FALL

23
00:03:15,486 --> 00:03:17,739
72 MILLION YEARS AGO

24
00:03:17,822 --> 00:03:22,035
UPPER CRETACEOUS

25
00:03:23,536 --> 00:03:25,246
Three million years have passed

26
00:03:25,330 --> 00:03:29,042
since the asteroid started
your journey towards Earth.

27
00:03:31,169 --> 00:03:34,631
And dinosaurs rule the planet.

28
00:03:35,715 --> 00:03:41,387
They rule the earth
and now they start to enter the ocean.

29
00:03:44,599 --> 00:03:49,896
The high level of sea water
divided North America into two…

30
00:03:54,609 --> 00:03:56,653
…creating endless coasts…

31
00:04:00,573 --> 00:04:03,326
… hundreds of tropical islands…

32
00:04:05,828 --> 00:04:08,039
…and opportunities.

33
00:04:20,551 --> 00:04:23,137
But these islands are not a paradise.

34
00:04:27,016 --> 00:04:30,019
They are home to an impressive predator.

35
00:04:34,983 --> 00:04:40,571
One of the fastest dinosaurs
and agile of their kind.

36
00:04:44,075 --> 00:04:48,371
North America's response
to Spinosaurus.

37
00:04:59,716 --> 00:05:03,094
But not in the way we would imagine.

38
00:05:04,512 --> 00:05:06,639
Not even close.

39
00:05:09,183 --> 00:05:11,686
This is Hesperornis.

40
00:05:13,396 --> 00:05:18,443
He is impressive and fast.

41
00:05:20,570 --> 00:05:26,284
But he's the opposite
of their giant, scary cousins.

42
00:05:36,294 --> 00:05:37,628
He is strange

43
00:05:38,338 --> 00:05:39,714
and clumsy.

44
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:43,885
And he has tiny teeth.

45
00:05:44,802 --> 00:05:48,306
Not exactly the traits
of a fierce hunter.

46
00:05:50,183 --> 00:05:53,394
But what do you share with Spinosaurus

47
00:05:54,187 --> 00:05:57,565
is that it is not confined to dry land.

48
00:06:05,281 --> 00:06:10,787
In fact, he is the aquatic dinosaur
most developed ever.

49
00:06:17,794 --> 00:06:21,255
Like a prehistoric penguin,

50
00:06:22,465 --> 00:06:27,678
he can swim to the high seas
to access places with food,

51
00:06:28,429 --> 00:06:31,724
which I was previously unable to reach.

52
00:06:51,953 --> 00:06:56,541
This is the reward
of your new blue kingdom.

53
00:07:05,967 --> 00:07:11,305
Here, your clumsy paws
they become propellants.

54
00:07:15,309 --> 00:07:21,190
And its 94 sharp teeth
catch fish easily.

55
00:07:38,583 --> 00:07:40,376
But, as it breathes oxygen,

56
00:07:41,294 --> 00:07:44,046
is attached to the surface.

57
00:07:56,350 --> 00:08:00,813
And the surface is not a safe place
to stay still.

58
00:08:04,275 --> 00:08:05,610
Because, down there,

59
00:08:06,944 --> 00:08:09,030
there are animals

60
00:08:09,822 --> 00:08:13,034
twice the size of an orca.

61
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:22,502
The mosasaur.

62
00:08:29,342 --> 00:08:33,429
The super predator of these seas.

63
00:08:41,771 --> 00:08:45,274
Hesperornis has to go back to shore.

64
00:08:50,530 --> 00:08:54,033
But the mosasaur moves
with frightening speed.

65
00:08:57,036 --> 00:09:01,582
Fortunately,
Hesperornis is much more agile.

66
00:09:08,297 --> 00:09:09,840
But he is exhausted.

67
00:09:13,219 --> 00:09:18,057
What gives the mosasaur
one last chance.

68
00:09:36,492 --> 00:09:39,829
The Hesperornis
is a true survivor,

69
00:09:41,122 --> 00:09:46,669
venturing further into the ocean
than any other dinosaur.

70
00:09:49,589 --> 00:09:54,885
But these waters are treacherous,
even for the best swimmers.

71
00:10:03,311 --> 00:10:07,106
Despite the success of dinosaurs
in shallow waters,

72
00:10:07,690 --> 00:10:11,485
mosasaurs dominate the waves.

73
00:10:19,910 --> 00:10:23,831
1300 km to the north, on land,

74
00:10:24,332 --> 00:10:26,250
It's another story.

75
00:10:38,095 --> 00:10:41,641
With a warm and stable climate,

76
00:10:41,724 --> 00:10:45,936
the dominance of dinosaurs here
is incomparable.

77
00:10:53,944 --> 00:10:58,616
The large sauropods
thrive among the tall trees,

78
00:10:58,699 --> 00:11:02,286
as they always did
since the beginning of the Jurassic.

79
00:11:08,626 --> 00:11:12,171
But beneath them,
there has been a revolution.

80
00:11:18,969 --> 00:11:22,181
A female hadrosaur.

81
00:11:25,434 --> 00:11:29,021
Despite appearing dwarfed by them,

82
00:11:29,689 --> 00:11:33,401
It's bigger than an elephant.

83
00:11:34,568 --> 00:11:38,155
And it will not be stopped by these giants,

84
00:11:39,532 --> 00:11:43,327
because nothing can stop it
a mother with a mission.

85
00:11:45,871 --> 00:11:47,707
And this mission

86
00:11:48,207 --> 00:11:50,543
is to feed the family…

87
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:54,588
…which is somewhere

88
00:11:56,132 --> 00:11:57,466
down there.

89
00:12:07,893 --> 00:12:11,856
Long ago, your ancestors
who kept food in their cheeks

90
00:12:11,939 --> 00:12:14,108
There were few and they were dispersed.

91
00:12:16,986 --> 00:12:23,534
But hadrosaurs are just as successful
who have herds of thousands.

92
00:12:26,245 --> 00:12:31,584
The largest agglomerations of dinosaurs
that the world has ever seen.

93
00:12:34,128 --> 00:12:38,549
But this female's family
is not traveling with the herd.

94
00:12:40,342 --> 00:12:43,429
There, in the safety of the daycare,

95
00:12:44,138 --> 00:12:48,851
a huge nursery
for hundreds of baby hadrosaurs…

96
00:12:51,187 --> 00:12:54,023
…including hers.

97
00:12:58,986 --> 00:13:03,240
At six months old, they have an insatiable appetite

98
00:13:04,492 --> 00:13:08,412
and they eat almost everything she gives them.

99
00:13:11,457 --> 00:13:12,708
All.

100
00:13:24,929 --> 00:13:29,308
This type of feeding typical of birds
requires many repetitions,

101
00:13:30,142 --> 00:13:34,814
That's why she leaves several times
to look for food.

102
00:13:36,816 --> 00:13:39,193
And, when the mothers are away,

103
00:13:39,276 --> 00:13:42,196
the little ones play.

104
00:14:06,053 --> 00:14:08,931
With the wingspan of a fighter,

105
00:14:09,473 --> 00:14:13,143
the pterosaurs
are bigger than ever.

106
00:14:15,938 --> 00:14:19,567
And the daycares
are the perfect hunting grounds,

107
00:14:20,067 --> 00:14:24,405
where the unprotected nests
They are the easiest targets.

108
00:14:44,216 --> 00:14:46,886
Despite the threat
of this gigantic dinosaur,

109
00:14:46,969 --> 00:14:50,639
mothers will defend their offspring
at all costs.

110
00:15:07,781 --> 00:15:13,162
But the giant pterosaur
is determined to feed itself.

111
00:15:20,044 --> 00:15:25,090
The nest's cries are a call
for dinner for the predator.

112
00:15:41,190 --> 00:15:44,568
But the little ones
They are not crying just because of fear.

113
00:15:45,611 --> 00:15:47,905
They are asking for help.

114
00:16:07,216 --> 00:16:11,136
This fierce instinct
to protect their offspring

115
00:16:12,179 --> 00:16:16,809
is essential for success
of hadrosaurs.

116
00:16:19,144 --> 00:16:24,525
But other dinosaurs
are taking defense to another level,

117
00:16:26,151 --> 00:16:31,490
because the combat between the predator
and the prey is getting worse.

118
00:16:31,573 --> 00:16:33,909
72 MILLION YEARS AGO

119
00:16:33,993 --> 00:16:39,748
And this will give rise to dinosaurs
most iconic of all time.

120
00:16:45,879 --> 00:16:48,132
This will take so long

121
00:16:48,632 --> 00:16:52,678
that the continent
of North America will change.

122
00:16:54,013 --> 00:16:57,141
The land rises towards the sky.

123
00:16:57,224 --> 00:16:58,767
66 MILLION YEARS AGO

124
00:17:06,900 --> 00:17:09,028
The Rocky Mountains.

125
00:17:11,488 --> 00:17:14,908
It's here, at the foot of the mountains,

126
00:17:16,660 --> 00:17:20,164
that dinosaurs are making an impact.

127
00:17:28,797 --> 00:17:30,883
The pachycephalosaurus.

128
00:17:32,384 --> 00:17:35,721
They are using their
terribly thick skulls…

129
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,602
…for a duel for supremacy.

130
00:17:47,024 --> 00:17:48,776
And, beside them,

131
00:17:49,985 --> 00:17:53,906
a dinosaur
with an even more impressive head.

132
00:18:00,120 --> 00:18:02,122
Triceratops.

133
00:18:10,631 --> 00:18:13,092
It may look like a rhino,

134
00:18:13,926 --> 00:18:16,637
but it is twice the size.

135
00:18:20,057 --> 00:18:25,104
And it has horns that look like spears
more than one meter long.

136
00:18:32,778 --> 00:18:38,283
Triceratops and Pachycephalosaurus
They have impressive weapons.

137
00:18:40,661 --> 00:18:43,205
However, there are some here

138
00:18:43,288 --> 00:18:47,126
who are even more armed
and are more dangerous.

139
00:18:58,303 --> 00:19:00,639
Under the cover of darkness,

140
00:19:01,223 --> 00:19:04,768
the latest armored warrior
and grand.

141
00:19:07,437 --> 00:19:11,692
It is six meters long
and it is very territorial.

142
00:19:15,070 --> 00:19:18,532
Ankylosaurus magniventris.

143
00:19:27,082 --> 00:19:29,626
Is looking for intruders

144
00:19:31,378 --> 00:19:35,090
bold enough
to invade its territory.

145
00:19:43,265 --> 00:19:48,562
Your tank-like body is covered
by dozens of thick bony plates.

146
00:19:55,235 --> 00:19:56,778
Furthermore,

147
00:19:57,696 --> 00:20:00,449
has a powerful new weapon.

148
00:20:05,037 --> 00:20:08,790
A bat-shaped tail,
which weighs half a ton,

149
00:20:09,750 --> 00:20:14,338
and that he can use
to face those who walk in the forests.

150
00:20:20,469 --> 00:20:22,221
He senses something.

151
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,253
Their territory was invaded…

152
00:20:56,463 --> 00:20:59,716
…by the worst intruder of all.

153
00:21:12,604 --> 00:21:14,940
A tyrannosaurus rex.

154
00:22:39,483 --> 00:22:41,318
An ankylosaurus

155
00:22:42,402 --> 00:22:44,321
against a Tyrannosaurus rex.

156
00:22:53,538 --> 00:22:55,707
An evolutionary impasse

157
00:22:56,875 --> 00:22:59,294
forged over millions of years.

158
00:23:20,232 --> 00:23:22,234
But in this fight,

159
00:23:24,069 --> 00:23:27,989
there is one thing
that distinguishes these dinosaurs.

160
00:23:31,410 --> 00:23:33,036
The intelligence.

161
00:24:15,078 --> 00:24:20,667
Tyrannosaurus-rex is one of the predators
most fearsome of all time.

162
00:24:23,211 --> 00:24:26,131
And to stay in shape,

163
00:24:27,466 --> 00:24:32,596
you have to eat the equivalent
to 200 steaks a day.

164
00:24:35,307 --> 00:24:40,479
However,
This female hasn't eaten anything yet.

165
00:24:43,565 --> 00:24:49,070
Because she has special plans
for this meal.

166
00:24:54,326 --> 00:24:58,747
But ankylosaurus is no light snack.

167
00:25:05,712 --> 00:25:08,256
It has six tons of muscles and bones

168
00:25:08,924 --> 00:25:12,844
covered in bumps and protuberances.

169
00:25:25,398 --> 00:25:27,359
Even for Tyrannosaurus,

170
00:25:28,109 --> 00:25:29,819
It's a bummer.

171
00:26:04,312 --> 00:26:05,564
Finally,

172
00:26:06,690 --> 00:26:08,441
reaches the end of the journey.

173
00:26:17,659 --> 00:26:21,913
And this is the reason for all this effort.

174
00:26:35,176 --> 00:26:37,679
Five hungry cubs.

175
00:26:51,610 --> 00:26:53,236
A ferocious killer?

176
00:26:54,112 --> 00:26:55,238
Yes.

177
00:26:56,364 --> 00:26:57,824
But also

178
00:26:58,366 --> 00:27:00,118
She is a dedicated mother.

179
00:27:16,468 --> 00:27:18,219
He will guarantee

180
00:27:19,220 --> 00:27:21,723
that your little ones
they are well fed…

181
00:27:25,644 --> 00:27:29,564
…to give them the best start in life.

182
00:27:34,235 --> 00:27:36,821
Something your distant ancestors

183
00:27:37,405 --> 00:27:39,240
they could only dream.

184
00:27:42,661 --> 00:27:48,667
A long time ago, in the Triassic,
little Marasuchus hatched in hell.

185
00:27:50,168 --> 00:27:53,046
These developing dinosaurs

186
00:27:54,172 --> 00:27:56,925
were forced to live in the shadows

187
00:27:57,759 --> 00:28:01,596
and hiding from the dominant reptiles.

188
00:28:03,890 --> 00:28:06,184
But when fate intervened…

189
00:28:08,144 --> 00:28:10,230
… transformed the catastrophe

190
00:28:11,523 --> 00:28:13,817
in an opportunity...

191
00:28:16,403 --> 00:28:19,197
…and they began their rise.

192
00:28:22,659 --> 00:28:27,539
Getting bigger, stronger
and more formidable than ever.

193
00:28:34,212 --> 00:28:35,463
Over time,

194
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:40,135
they would triumph, not just on land,

195
00:28:41,511 --> 00:28:42,721
but at sea

196
00:28:44,472 --> 00:28:45,974
and in heaven too.

197
00:28:47,976 --> 00:28:51,020
After 160 million years,

198
00:28:52,605 --> 00:28:55,316
dinosaurs dominate so much

199
00:28:56,818 --> 00:29:00,321
that nothing on Earth can stop them.

200
00:29:06,828 --> 00:29:09,414
But something that is not of this Earth…

201
00:29:10,123 --> 00:29:11,332
…can.

202
00:29:13,209 --> 00:29:17,922
Because while this family's journey
It's just beginning,

203
00:29:19,215 --> 00:29:23,219
another trip is coming to an end.

204
00:29:27,932 --> 00:29:34,522
The asteroid, now on its way to Earth
at 50 times the speed of sound,

205
00:29:36,024 --> 00:29:40,028
will finally have
your encounter with destiny.

206
00:30:13,561 --> 00:30:18,483
Falls over the ocean,
off the coast of Mexico,

207
00:30:19,234 --> 00:30:23,488
with the strength of a billion
of atomic bombs.

208
00:30:24,823 --> 00:30:28,618
The temperatures are so high
that vaporize the bottom of the sea…

209
00:30:30,995 --> 00:30:35,667
…and all living beings
within a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

210
00:30:44,676 --> 00:30:48,012
Far away, at the foot of the Rocky Mountains,

211
00:30:49,055 --> 00:30:55,019
these big dinosaurs have no idea
of what is about to hit them.

212
00:31:17,125 --> 00:31:20,795
The biggest earthquakes of all time.

213
00:31:29,596 --> 00:31:32,307
But the worst is yet to come.

214
00:31:35,602 --> 00:31:41,065
A huge wall of superheated debris
explodes out.

215
00:31:58,499 --> 00:32:03,129
The dinosaurs,
caught up in this deadly cloud,

216
00:32:03,212 --> 00:32:05,465
are buried.

217
00:32:08,051 --> 00:32:13,222
Their world is so warm that,
literally bursts into flames.

218
00:32:22,357 --> 00:32:24,442
Not the strongest armor

219
00:32:24,943 --> 00:32:26,778
offers protection.

220
00:32:36,162 --> 00:32:39,749
The cloud quickly swallows the entire planet,

221
00:32:40,249 --> 00:32:42,418
suffocating him with ash.

222
00:32:44,504 --> 00:32:46,839
Enveloping him in darkness.

223
00:33:32,844 --> 00:33:37,724
The few who survive, at the end of it all,

224
00:33:39,642 --> 00:33:41,602
They are now living in a nightmare.

225
00:33:43,104 --> 00:33:46,274
Choking in the darkness.

226
00:34:12,675 --> 00:34:14,218
At nightfall,

227
00:34:14,886 --> 00:34:20,308
the number of dinosaurs killed
it is catastrophic.

228
00:34:45,083 --> 00:34:47,585
TWO WEEKS LATER

229
00:34:47,668 --> 00:34:50,338
Deprived of sunlight,

230
00:34:50,838 --> 00:34:54,550
a post-impact winter envelops Earth.

231
00:35:01,140 --> 00:35:05,728
The global temperature drops by 25 ºC.

232
00:35:09,148 --> 00:35:15,154
Conditions so cold
that almost no dinosaur can resist.

233
00:35:27,041 --> 00:35:29,460
Giant sauropods,

234
00:35:29,961 --> 00:35:31,546
dead,

235
00:35:32,171 --> 00:35:37,552
in the ashes of the trees
that made them so tall.

236
00:35:53,484 --> 00:35:55,778
In their crowded colonies,

237
00:35:56,529 --> 00:35:58,489
those who live together,

238
00:35:59,407 --> 00:36:00,950
they die together.

239
00:36:08,708 --> 00:36:12,295
Protective mothers
cannot protect the offspring

240
00:36:12,378 --> 00:36:14,505
from freezing temperatures.

241
00:36:20,636 --> 00:36:24,515
The biting cold also affected

242
00:36:25,391 --> 00:36:28,728
the most famous dinosaur of all.

243
00:36:37,528 --> 00:36:39,447
The Tyrant King…

244
00:36:40,448 --> 00:36:41,866
… succumbed.

245
00:37:01,802 --> 00:37:05,097
Not even the mighty Tyrannosaurus-rex

246
00:37:05,848 --> 00:37:08,267
will survive this.

247
00:37:40,007 --> 00:37:42,426
The reign of the dinosaurs,

248
00:37:44,095 --> 00:37:45,721
finally,

249
00:37:46,514 --> 00:37:48,474
has come to an end.

250
00:38:17,003 --> 00:38:20,131
But 66 million years later…

251
00:38:22,717 --> 00:38:26,178
… the dinosaurs rise again.

252
00:38:30,891 --> 00:38:32,268
This time,

253
00:38:32,351 --> 00:38:34,186
by our hands.

254
00:38:41,986 --> 00:38:47,908
Today, its fossils
they are monuments of a lost world.

255
00:38:49,076 --> 00:38:50,536
More than that,

256
00:38:51,787 --> 00:38:58,002
are the keys that reveal
the secrets of the history of dinosaurs.

257
00:39:00,004 --> 00:39:04,800
Our knowledge of their lives
is vaster than ever.

258
00:39:06,302 --> 00:39:08,471
From your first moments

259
00:39:09,638 --> 00:39:11,265
to the last ones.

260
00:39:15,019 --> 00:39:20,024
And the revelation
that on the darkest day on Earth,

261
00:39:20,608 --> 00:39:23,361
Not all dinosaurs died.

262
00:39:25,363 --> 00:39:30,618
Some were small enough
to shelter themselves from the apocalypse.

263
00:39:33,496 --> 00:39:35,373
And they survived

264
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,167
until today.

265
00:39:40,961 --> 00:39:46,384
Flying dinosaurs
which we now call birds.

266
00:39:50,846 --> 00:39:56,936
And the clues to your past
are hidden in plain sight.

267
00:40:18,416 --> 00:40:24,588
The incredible journey
which began 235 million years ago

268
00:40:25,798 --> 00:40:29,427
continues by our side.

269
00:40:31,554 --> 00:40:33,722
They are the remaining link…

270
00:40:36,016 --> 00:40:38,686
…of a kingdom long lost,

271
00:40:40,646 --> 00:40:42,231
what was

272
00:40:43,232 --> 00:40:44,733
the era

273
00:40:45,526 --> 00:40:47,361
of dinosaurs.

274
